Q: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mike Hopkins ? SEATTLE (AP) â In the view of  Mike Hopkins    his  first season as the head coach at Washington will be filled basically with freshmen.
That's not to be taken in the literal sense. What  Hopkins  means is that with a new coaching staff  a new style and new expectations  even the players that are returning from last year are just like the incoming freshmen.
"I think the biggest thing is we've focused on the day-to-day  how we're going to do the process of getting better "  Hopkins  said. "That's the standard of excellence every day and everybody here is learning a new system. A lot of the players end up being freshmen again because they're learning  from our zone to our press to how we're going to play offensively  defensively. I think they've made the transition pretty smooth."
After spending 22 seasons as an assistant at Syracuse and being the presumptive replacement for Jim Boeheim when he retired   Hopkins  left behind everything  he  knew in upstate New York and accepted the job of rebuilding the Washington program after the Huskies fired Lorenzo Romar following 15 seasons.
 Hopkins  also had to recruit those who slogged through a 9-22 record a season ago to keep them around. A number considered leaving. Most  including starters David Crisp  Noah Dickerson and Matisse Thybulle  all ended up staying with the chance to create the new foundation for the next chapter at Washington.
"The biggest concern with a new coach is the buy-in there "  Hopkins  said. "I think from the beginning our staff did a great job of really connecting with the kids  working with them  developing them  getting them to stay  that was our first priority. I'm very happy with the guys."
IN THE ZONE: Yes  Washington will play zone. Yes  it will be the same zone defense that  Hopkins  helped teach at Syracuse.
Defense was a major problem in the waning years of Romar's tenure. The Huskies' defense was more of a liability that an asset. How  Hopkins  is able to implement the zone will be important since the Huskies don't have a lot of size on the interior. A year ago  Washington allowed 81 points per game  11th in the conference.
"I know the benefits of it. The biggest thing I want to do is control tempo. So if you're fast  I can slow you down; if you're slow  I can speed you up  " Hopkins  said.
FINDING SCORING: One of  Hopkins ' first tasks will be finding enough scoring. Crisp is Washington's leading returning scorer at 13.8 points per game  while Dickerson averaged 12.5 points last season. But the Huskies don't have an obvious scorer on the roster that can carry the load or get points in crucial situations. In recent seasons  the Huskies have had Markelle Fultz  Andrew Andrews and C.J. Wilcox. Fultz averaged 23.2 points last season  while Andrews scored 20.9 per game the season before.
"You try and figure out how you're going to score 70 to 75 points per game and who is going to do it "  Hopkins  said. "That's been one of the processes."
DIFFICULT BEGINNING:  Hopkins  certainly isn't shying away from having a challenging schedule to begin  his  Washington tenure.

Q: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity David Clarke ? It's not enough to tell people that if they see something  they should say something  as often  people do not know what to watch for and report   former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke  said Tuesday.
"There are a lot of people  350 million people in the United States  " Clarke  told Fox News' "Fox & Friends" program  while commenting about the deadly Las Vegas concert shooting. "They are not all known to law enforcement  so where I would start is doing a better job of engaging the public to help us out."
 Clarke  described Paddock Tuesday at the "needle in the haystack reference that you hear in homeland security enterprise and environment  and at times like this  the call to report troubled people starts over.
"We don't tell people specifically  you know  what to do  what to look for " said  Clarke . "I have been in law enforcement for nearly 40 years. I'm suspicious about everything."
 Clarke  said  he  has no doubt that as the investigation unfolds  there will be details that are now obvious in hindsight.
"We [should] do a better job of engaging the public  say here are the sort of things you need to look for and an ongoing campaign to do that " said  Clarke . "We spent a lot of money to see something  say something campaign. I wonder what the results are."
News broke Monday that Paddock's father had been on the FBI's Most Wanted List back in the 1960s  and  Clarke  said it will take a behavioral scientist to unwrap the shooter and  his  motives.
"We saw it in Orlando " said  Clarke . "We saw it in San Bernardino. We saw it a Fort Hood. After a while you look and what you hear over and over again is like some of the people's closest neighbors and friends saying 'hey  he seemed like a normal guy to me.' Oftentimes not."
 Clarke  said  he  expects Paddock's girlfriend  Marilou Danley  who was out of the country at the time of the shooting  will shed some light on his motives.

Q: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ablynx ? PARIS/LONDON (Reuters) - French drugmaker Sanofi has agreed to buy  Belgian biotech company Ablynx  for 3.9 billion euros ($4.8 billion)  beating Novo Nordisk and marking its second big deal this month after buying Bioverativ.
The deal is a further sign of accelerating merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in the global biotech sector and comes after  Ablynx  rejected a 2.6 billion euro offer from Denmark’s Novo Nordisk.
Sanofi said on Monday it would pay 45 euros per share in cash for Ablynx  a premium of 21 percent over its closing price on Friday - and more than double the price before Novo went public with its initial bid.
Novo Nordisk conceded defeat  saying it did not intend to make a revised offer for Ablynx  which is developing a prized experimental drug for a rare blood disorder.
Sanofi said  Ablynx  would boost long-term value for  its  shareholders  while the takeover was expected to have a neutral impact on Sanofi’s business earnings per share (EPS) in 2018 and 2019.
Sanofi is already one of  Ablynx ’s big pharma partners  after striking a deal in July 2017 to find new treatments for inflammatory diseases.
By buying the company outright it will now get access to  Ablynx ’s most promising asset  the experimental drug caplacizumab for treating the rare bleeding disorder acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
Sanofi will be able to use its existing infrastructure and the recently acquired platform from Bioverativ to help to commercialize caplacizumab. It will also benefit from some of the other drugs  Ablynx  is working on  such as an infant anti-viral treatment  that would not have fitted within Novo Nordisk.
Berenberg analysts said  Ablynx  was a good fit but they estimated the deal would generate no more than a 4 percent return on invested capital  assuming caplacizumab sales of around 400 million euros by 2023.
The Danish group has sat out previous rounds of M&A in the drugs sector to focus on its core diabetes business but it now needs to find new products for its struggling smaller biopharmaceutical unit  where Ablynx would have been a good fit.
Morgan Stanley and Lazard advised Sanofi on the deal while JP Morgan advised Ablynx.
