And the idea that you brought up the temple is an important thing. I mean, it's referred to as the temple of the Holy Ghost in the Bible. And this is a starting point, this is a stepping stone. This is definitely a step away from making the body evil. I mean, it's one thing to call the body, you know, unreal or nothing, but the ego would take the step to say the body is evil. The important part is that the body is a temple of the Holy Ghost. In the first step, it's seen that it can be used for the Holy Spirit's purpose. And in that sense, and in that sense only, is the body a temple. But once again, it has nothing to do with the body in and of itself. It has to do with that intention or that purpose in mind. And we could say that a body that is used solely for communication is a body that's being used by the Holy Spirit. And then we get into a whole discussion of communication. Yes. That communication isn't necessarily what I have been educated to believe communication is. Yes. Communication does not have to include two bodies. Right. The communication happens at a mind level, and that's the only place communication happens, is that a mind level. So why do I need a body to communicate if it only happens at the mind level? Well, every mind that seems to believe in the world believes in separation and believes in the body and believes that communication has been limited so that communion or mind communication, you might call it even telepathy or you could give it any different words, has been blocked, has been pushed out of awareness. So the body is literally has been imposed as a limit on communication. It really appears in this world that if two bodies aren't together, that communication is limited. In other words, they can't talk to each other unless they use a telephone or a walkie talkie or some kind of an aid, correspond through letters. You need material aids to help the communication. But in the ultimate sense, we're back to the belief that when the body is believed in, when the world is believed in, the world was made as a limit on communication. The world was made to defend against communication because the Holy Spirit is our communication link with the Father and the world was made to cover over that. So that the Holy Spirit has to work with the higher or the lower mind and the beliefs and as the mind lets go of its beliefs in the world, it appears gradually that powers of the mind are returned to it. In other words, telepathy and clairvoyance and intuitions and so on and so forth seem to be more prevalent to the mind when actually the mind is just returning to its natural condition. These are not superpowers that rare individuals can develop. These are very natural communication. So the communication is always there, it has always been there, but it's covered over, so there's an unawareness of it. Yes. And it's a strong investment in the body that does this. The body is the chosen home of the deceived mind. And obviously we can get back to the purposes, whereas communication is the sole purpose for the body of the Holy Spirit. The ego uses it for pride and pleasure and attack. And those are different purposes that actually constrain communication. Okay, so even before we get into the pride, get into the pride, pleasure and attack of the ego's use for the body to kind of complete what we were saying about the Holy Spirit's use for the body, are you saying that, you know, my question was if communication is solely at a mind level, why have a body to be used for communication? And I think what I hear you saying is that as long as the mind believes in the body, then the Holy Spirit uses that body for communication. Yes. It's only the belief in the body that has the body enter into the communication at all. Yes. Because without that belief, you know, there would be that full total awareness that there is the communication already at a mind level. Yes. There are no bodies in the Holy Instant. Revelation is beyond bodies. It's direct communication from God to God's creation, and it's light. And this is the attraction of the Holy Instant, that is the mind gives up its false ideas and false beliefs and judgments, and then it is drawn into the Holy Instant, where communication is completely restored. But a mind that is deceived and believes in the world and believes in bodies, therefore, in a sense, bodies are like symbols. The Holy Spirit will reach the mind in whatever way that he can. It can be a friend coming through the voice of a friend that you're speaking to. It can be on a sign of a billboard or in a record lyric or just on and on and on and on. There's just many ways, many forms, but in that sense, the body is a symbol. And the Holy Spirit is using symbols to reach the deceived mind because the deceived mind believes in symbols. And also, from a metaphorical sense, as we move forward and as we get clearer and clearer, and we're able to line up with the Holy Spirit's purpose, we are asked to reach our brothers who believe in the world, who believe in time, who believe in separation, who believe in the body. Yes, and reach them using symbols that they can hear and they can understand. And once again, we have Jesus who is a great example of that, who spoke in parables when he spoke to the masses and spoke of higher ideals and concepts, particularly with the apostles and disciples and those that had the ears to hear. But in both cases, this Holy Spirit speaking through him using symbols to reach the mind at a place where it can grasp it. We also have examples of Jesus going off into communion with the Father into the silence where of coming together, there are various texts like the Aquarian Gospel where he's talked about going into the silence with the silent brotherhood for a period of days into silent communion where not a word was spoken. And once again, here we have a range of what we would call communication with words, which is still very crude, but as the beliefs are let go of in the mind, we come back to communion, which is totally wordless, yes. The Holy Spirit really uses everything that He uses at all within the illusion and the symbol, right? It's interesting too. I mean, we can get pretty deep to the point that that's metaphorical too, to say that the Holy Spirit uses the symbols of the world still can bring a sense of the Holy Spirit working in the world. And the Holy Spirit is external to my mind. Somehow there's a distinction between inner and outer, and He's in the outer and I'm in the inner. Yes, and that's a common thing to a mind that believes that it's in the world. First, it has no conception of the inner life. It's so convinced of the concrete and the specific that it needs specific symbols. And these can take many forms, as we've said, to appearances by angels and visions and all kinds of different voices and so on and so forth, near-death experiences, it just goes on and on. However, if we pull it back and we really see that the Holy Spirit is the light, the abstract light in the mind, that literally the Holy Spirit is working with the lower mind or the beliefs, so that when the mind starts to open up to the light and starts to let go of some beliefs and limits and concepts that it has placed on itself, then the symbols appear and are perceived by the mind. And it can appear as if there's something external that's tinkering with the world and giving me parky spaces or providing me rent money on the last day when I needed or so on and so forth. It can seem that these things are happening to me and he's literally going before me and making straight my way and leaving those tones to trip on, which is a passage from the Course. And this is a perception of a mind that believes in the world and it's kind of a gentle kind of a comfort as if things are being provided when actually the mind is simply laying aside beliefs and it's perceiving a world in which things seem to be being taken care of and flowing. So the Holy Spirit is not working in the world within the illusion, but working within the mind. And in the mind's perception of the world changes accordingly. And so it seems that the Holy Spirit had a direct effect on something in the world when actually the direct effect is merely on the mind that outpictures the world. Yes, it's an interpretation, you know, it's definitely an interpretation. It can seem as if things are clicking in now whereas things before seem like an uphill struggle and actually the mind is just opening to the guidance and following the guidance. Is that an indication of a greater receptivity in mind to be directed? Yes, it's symbolic. Okay, let's go back to the ego's use for the body. Uses are pride, pleasure and attack. Yes. You want to address those? Yes, well, we can take them one at a time. Pride gets to a topic we were talking about yesterday, the subject-object split or the belief in personhood. All pride really comes down to a desperate attempt to maintain a belief in personhood of being an individual person and actually perceiving other individual persons which keeps that split between self and other in the mind. It reinforces that split. So in a sense of drawing attention to oneself, pride in accomplishments, past accomplishments and so forth, pride in physique, pride in the way one looks, pride in one's country, pride in one's sports teams, pride in one's family. You know, a lot of things in the world are considered very good. Talk about spiritual pride. Well, spiritual pride in a sense would be taking the pride in what one knows in the sense of turning the spiritual journey kind of into a book-learning feat or into a display of abilities that still underneath that there's a motive to draw attention to the small self, to draw attention to the personhood. This is a very subtle trap that we could talk about with a lot of people who have worked at letting go their belief in separation in the mind and so forth, and psychic abilities begin to rise, telepathy, or levitation, or so on, psychokinesis, different types of seeming powers. But the mind then latching on to that with a kind of look at me, look what I can do, and the eye is still the little eye, the eye is still the personal eye. We could have it in a sense of becoming a lecturer or a workshop leader or a healer being coming known as a healer. When that gets personified, when the mind identifies with the person as being the focal point of that, that I'm the healer, then in a sense it's still trying to draw attention to itself. It's not doing, as Jesus did, pointing to heaven, saying it's the Father, it's not I, but the Father is not I to speak, but the Father who speaks. It's not I to them the source of healing, but let the Father in heaven. He always was pointing to the Father, always taking the second place, always I'm the creation, the Father is the Creator, and this is the sense of true humility of a mind that knows what it is. It knows what its source is, and it isn't taken over the kingpin role at being the center of the universe.

No county shall in future be held more often than once a month, and where a greater interval has been customary, let it be greater. Nor shall any sheriff or bailiff make his torn through the hundred save twice a year, and then only in the due and accustomed place, that is to say, once after Easter and again after Mickelmus. And view of Frank Pledge shall be held then at the Mickelmus term without interference, that is to say, so that each has his liberties which he had and was accustomed to have in the time of King Henry our grandfather, or which he has since acquired. View of Frank Pledge shall be held in this manner, namely, that our peace be kept, that a tithing be kept full as it used to be, and that the sheriff shall not look for opportunities for exactions, but be satisfied with what a sheriff used to get from holding his view in the time of King Henry our grandfather.

Mission Critical Operations, that's a term that has now been talked about quite a lot on the campus of Cleveland Community College, and it has to do with the $23 million grant that we receive from the Department of Labor. I have with me today Mitch Saipal and Jonathan Davis. They are the two co-project managers for this new grant project. And we're going to talk a little bit about what the grant is for and what it means to the college, and then we'll join a panel discussion we held recently with Dr. Jill Biden and the Secretary of Labor, Thomas Perez. That happened recently on our campus. So first, Mitch, let me ask you a little bit about what Mission Critical Operations is and how that relates to this grant and this funding that we're receiving. Okay. Briefly, Mission Critical Operations is any system or technology that a company relies on for their daily business that is central to their staying in business when that piece of technology goes down, then the company is basically shut down. They have to either turn customers away or send employees home. And so what we're doing is developing a curriculum towards being able to train technicians to maintain systems like that that are hybrid systems of electrical and mechanical and computer-based systems to keep those systems up 24-7. All right, Jonathan, so that's a real basic definition that the grant does involve more than just developing the curriculum. You want to talk about some of the other things, the certifications and equipment and why this is a unique kind of project? Yes, it is unique in the fact that we're not aware of any other curriculum across the country that exists, that's quite in a hybrid nature like this curriculum. In addition to the curriculum that we will develop, we'll also work with our industry partners to develop an industry-recognized certification both in information technology and in industrial systems in mission-critical operations so that we will have a credential that our students can earn that is verified by industry. So Mitch, one of the unique things about this project is, you know, 23 million sounds like a lot, and it is. And 13 million goes to Cleveland Community College, but there are other partners, so I think that brings a little unique aspect to it. You want to talk a little bit about the partnerships? Sure. Our partners are NASH Community College, WATE Tech Community College, both of those here in North Carolina, Moultrie Tech Community College in Georgia, and University of North Carolina at Charlotte is our university partner. And each of those schools gets a piece of that $10 million that's left in the grant, and each one brings a different area of expertise to the table. NASH is bringing emergency services and emergency preparedness and disaster recovery. WATE Tech is bringing big data analytics and virtualization, and UNC Charlotte is bringing an articulation program for students that, once they graduate here, they can move on to university studies. They are also bringing a cybersecurity part to this so we can work with industrial cybersecurity, which is a major component of the grant. And then Moultrie Tech is also bringing to us a remote telepresence system that they've developed, not only for work with other community colleges and with industry, but also for working in high schools so we can create a STEM pipeline. Okay, so this is really a regional grant and a regional project? Yes, absolutely. Okay, and I think that's one of the reasons why we received the grant, and one of the reasons why Dr. Biden and Secretary Perez came to visit with us. Before we go and see a little bit of our panel discussion, Jonathan, they did make two stops of tours on campus. The first one was in one of your classrooms, and you want to talk a little bit about what they were doing and why we chose that as one of the stops. Yes, our students were working on their Cisco Networking Academy labs where they connect routers and switches. And that day we were working on a what-if scenario. We were trying to connect a network in Shelby to a network in Charlotte. The students must configure the routers and the switches for end-to-end connectivity and then verify that connectivity to make sure that it works. So that's what we demonstrated in the lab to both Dr. Biden and Secretary Perez. Okay, and why did we want them to see that? What does that have to do with this new curriculum? Well, in the new curriculum, being a hybrid format, bringing the IT side of it into play, communications and connectivity is vital to a company, to vital to any company, especially mission-critical operations. You know, networking and connectivity is what it's all about. Okay, great. And then Mitch, we went to a lab where we do several programs, automation being one of them, and you demonstrated a telepresence type of scenario. So explain how that relates a little bit about that stop on the tour, I'll say, and how that relates to the project. Okay, one of the key features in this grant is a distance learning component to it. And the problem with a lot of distance learning for work like Jonathan, and I do this very technical and very hands-on, is the students, when they're at home trying to do their distance learning, they don't have access to some of the same equipment that a student on campus would have. So the telepresence session that we did was a remote control session basically where we took a laptop and we went online over the internet and then came in and controlled a piece of equipment in our lab. And students will be able to do that as part of this project from wherever they are, whether they're in Georgia, whether they're out east in North Carolina or whatever, they'll be able to reach into our labs and control the equipment. And we plan to roll that out at all five campuses. Okay, so how they relate to each other, you were connecting from Shelby to Charlotte, or the networking, well, maybe this was in the same room but it still was actually at a distance. So they are related, right? Yes. Essentially you're saying you had to have the internet. So even though there aren't exactly mission critical operations, both of those are going to be types of components in the program, correct? Yes. Right, they're pieces of the puzzle. Right, so now one of the things that people have been asking, they see this is supposed to be putting people back to work, Department of Labor grant, but we're really developing a curriculum in multiple pathways. So it'll be a while before there's anything really to see. Is that correct, Jonathan? It is. You know, we have the first year of this, really the first 18 months ish to develop the curriculum. And so we won't begin to see students enroll in this curriculum until at the end of about 15 to 18 months. I think we are planning a start in fall of next year, so fall of 2014. And of course we have to get this curriculum approved by our curriculum community. It has to go to the state, community college system. There's a lot to do between now and then to make sure that we're ready for fall. Okay, so something to be looking forward to and we'll be communicating that. Now we're going to go ahead and join our panel discussion that happened on November 18th here on the campus of Cleveland Community College.

And come on on and today's guest we get Dan Whitton. Dan how are we? Yeah I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm happy to be in Scotland and it's obviously been crazy few months but I'm sort of coming back slowly but surely I hope. You've been in this different nearly 20 years. Yeah. You've broke some world headlines, massive stories, contacts. You've been very controversial as well let's be honest. You've spoke a lot of shit. You spoke a lot of positivity. You've done a lot of good work as well but you've tasted the brunt of it when you see what it's like when they come after you which will touch on obviously but first and foremost how are you? Yeah I think I'm doing okay now. I cannot tell you how brutal the past eight months has been. It was Jordan Peterson. I heard him say that being cancelled is the worst thing to go through as a human other than receiving a terminal diagnosis and I actually think he's right because it touches on every single aspect of your life. Your personal life, your family life, your financial life, your professional life, your friendships you know nothing is untouched when you're cancelled. But if they want you they'll get you. Oh yeah and they want to control the world and especially with the names you're going up against. Yeah. If I'm honest it was only a matter of time for people who know the ins and outs of how this operates but before we get into all that though I always like to go back to the start of my guess. Get more about understanding about you then where you grew up and how it all began. Yeah well it's interesting. My parents were what was known as ten pound poms so people often wonder what's my accent about because I was born in New Zealand but I am a British New Zealander so my mum was actually born in Essex. My dad was born on a British Army base in Malta but all of his family are Jordies so my heritage is British but I spent the first 20 years of my life in New Zealand. So I've always had this dual citizenship and that was awesome because it meant that I knew that I would be able to move to the UK. But my upbringing was really idyllic. New Zealand is a wonderful country to grow up in. I mean it's literally on the other side of the world. You feel very safe but obviously for me being gay growing up in the 90s that was still a challenge at that point. So I think it made me you know I was badly bullied and had to deal with it with a lot of flak at school. And so I think you either go one of two ways. It either breaks you or for me it made me almost maybe almost too determined to succeed. What were you like at school? I mean I was a nightmare as well. The teachers hated me. Yeah so I've never been good with authority and as you've seen with my latest trails. Nothing's changed. Yeah nothing's changed there. So the teachers hated me. I mean I was a difficult kid in lots of ways but you know I was walking down the corridor at school and being called a faggot 20 times a lunchtime. So that does something to you. It makes you strong and steely. So I've always been someone that words cannot hurt me. You know no one ever physically touched me. I've never been in a fight in my life. Never been beaten up. I'm a big guy. So it was never a physical thing with me. It was always mental and emotional but yeah I always challenged authority and then I was really precocious actually and probably really annoying for the teachers because I was like a TV presenter when I was 15 years old on this cable show in New Zealand. I was interviewing the Prime Minister and doing things that were very annoying and precocious but I think for me it's because I just wanted to escape school. You know that was hellish for me. I just wanted to be out of school. I wanted to be living. I wanted to be working. Did you know because obviously when you come out is I think it was 2011, 2013 on Twitter. I think it was then but how was did you know your sexuality back then? Did you know you weren't a man straight away? Oh yeah. And I mean to be honest that is what maybe the first time I had tweeted about it but to be honest something I'm really proud about is that the entire time that I've been in the industry in a very masculine world Fleet Street and people always said it was very hypophobic. I remember when I entered Fleet Street which was around 2007. My first job was at the News of the World. Lots of people told me to hide my sexuality. You know you're never gonna go anywhere if you say that you're gay. Now by this point all my friends, my family knew I was gay and I made a conscious decision not to do that and I'm proud of that. So I sort of hid who I was until I was about 21. You know I had a girlfriend and but everyone knew. Everyone knew. Yeah you know if something just an energy about it is not you just know if somebody's calm or somebody's just but again it's down to everybody even 2024 if we're honest and it must all be hard for people to come out especially with social media back then obviously it was more ruthless. Obviously I think things have changed a little but it must be difficult for people to then no matter who they are. Loads of straight men are still closeted today. I mean I know lots of married guys you know guys married to women who have relationships with men. What it actually is is not necessarily about wider society. It's that you feel like you've been living a lie and that all of the people who love you are going to think well what was our relationship like before that now of course they don't do that. You know nine times out of ten people are incredibly accepting and we'll say oh yeah we knew that anyway Dan or whatever we just didn't ask. But remember I was 21 so I was pretty young and actually I told my parents when I was 15. Oh that good. It wasn't great. It wasn't great. Especially if your dad been in the army. Yeah well it was my grandfather who was in the army but my dad is like a proper bloke you know he's a rugby player. He was a top rugby player for Wellington in New Zealand and he trialed for the all blacks you know but they were incredible. Absolutely incredible but it was just a tough thing because I mean they I mean I remember my mom said to me she's she's surrounded by gay people now but she said you know I've never met a gay person. I was like of course you have of course you have but it was just a different it was a different time but no they took it well but the thing is I was still in my experimental phase not knowing what I was going to be and actually that's one of the reasons now I'm really concerned about all of this crazy gender trans stuff that's going on with kids now. It's like kids can't make a decision about their sexuality when you're still going through puberty. Do you know what I mean? Because your hormones and everything are all over the place so it's really only once you're sort of 18, 19, 20 that I think you can properly know who you are and and what you want to be. Same as kids listen everybody's confused me you every human is confused and the reason being is because we don't really know what's going on in life in my own opinion and I've interviewed enough people to understand no matter who I interview nobody's ever get concrete clear vision of what why we're here on this planet now for giving kids puberty blockers and like I don't care if you're straight by gay trans be who you want to be I've got friends and all around the world all different races all different ages and I love them for who they are. I've interviewed porn stars only fans gay porn stars and we became friends. I don't tell them they don't do that job this and that because it's their life they everybody goes through different levels of trauma different levels of pain to then mold them into who they are. I don't judge people for what they've done in the past I judge people from what I do now and me too but with the trans debate to me it's child abuse and I have a really personal take on this right because I am convinced absolutely convinced that if I was at school now I would have some woke teacher in my parents ear saying oh we think he might want to be a little girl because when you're a little gay kid right and only gay kids know this you go through loads of stages so you go through the stage where you want to dress up as a girl you go through the stage where you play with Barbie dolls because you you're so confused about your sexuality you don't understand it you're like well I'm not like the other boys so maybe I'm like a girl now I never wanted to be a woman never in in a million years but I honestly believe that at that five six seven year old age now I would have had some teachers pushing my parents down that path and that makes me so angry and so concerned and I do believe this stuff that's going on you know I've interviewed people who have um detransition carabelle who was the one who blew the whistle on the tavern stock clinic um which was doing terrible things to basically lesbian young women convincing them that they actually should be boys now in her case she um had her breasts cut off she went through puberty blockers her voice is deep you know she'll never get any of that back and she's realized now actually she was just a lesbian woman so so yeah so I guess I think I probably have quite a unique take on it as a gay guy knowing that probably I could have been pushed down that path and it would have been so wrong but I can respect that because it's an understanding just because someone doesn't agree with what you is up with you or what how you feel it doesn't mean it's wrong everybody sees the world differently and I don't care who you are like leave the kids alone if you're going to schools at 10 11 12 as a father myself my job is to protect and I could be wrong maybe everybody should be going to schools and dresses and drag queens and reading story times maybe it should be but for me as a father I just let my kids enjoy life even the school systems backwards if the question that as well that why are we studying fucking mathematics and other shit and history that's irrelevant we don't even know if it's true or false anyway so kids should be out in nature they should be loving life they should know about loving they should know about money management they should know about love understanding she even talked about death as well at me but I think when people lose someone they can spiral oh yeah they can lose their whole life just from a day from 10 to 20 years ago seriously you are so right there is so much that we learn at school that is totally irrelevant and I look back and I think what should I have been taught at school taxes how you pay your taxes how you how you budget how you cook healthily how you count calories do you know what I mean like practical things that actually like still as an adult I need to know about and you just do not learn at school but yes certainly not pumping your kids with information about why they might be the wrong gender I mean I'm very traditional on this anyway I think there are two genders you know I think you're either a man or a woman but if someone wants to say that they're a woman I don't have a big problem with that but you can't tell people that they should be denying a scientific reality I think it's really disturbing yeah science biology chromosomes everything's there for a reason but again if listen if you want to identify as a panda batman superman I don't care generally I don't care I go okay fair enough but if somebody comes into me if I go to a mental institute and I see someone pretending to be batman or superman I ain't going to be there long walk yeah that's well done I yeah yeah there's there's something not that these aren't that these are mental health issues and people are too scared to say that but I mean I'm sorry when we have teachers actually bringing in bowls of food so that students in their class can pretend to be dogs I'm sorry this has gone too far this is insane now we've got to stand up against it why are you pushing it so much though because the woke agenda is so powerful isn't it so powerful it's connected to a much bigger picture in what's going on in the world you know it's all about the big globalist organizations the united nations the world health organization the world economic forum I genuinely believe that these bodies want to effectively take control of governments all around the world and so that's why I think it's really important that governments stand up to sovereignty it's why I was such a big supporter of brexit for example because I don't trust these globalist bodies I mean they're completely unelected I mean the United Nations is pushing mad ideology about things so I think I think the woke agenda is a dangerous agenda actually and it's not just connected to social issues although of course that is part of it but I actually think it's much more connected to being controlled but we are controlled as soon as we're born we're controlled we're labeled we're given names religions sports teams to support we cut the umbilical cord straight away which is full of stem cells and nutrients women aren't breastfeeding which causes abandonment issues that's difficult and then you're going through the schooling system with your program to condition to think this is the way the world operates people aren't standing back going wait a minute question everything because you know yourself there's always three tails sides to the tail there's two sides and then there's the truth hundred percent and I mean I didn't used to question things and I think what's really powerful is when you have that moment when you wake up and more and more people are having that moment now but I mean good as me if you told me 10 years ago that I would be questioning the United Nations I probably would have said well you've gone mad but actually for me I had two big moments of realization and the first was Brexit uh in the UK because what happened is um you basically had international bodies working with the UK parliament to try and overturn the democratic will of the British people you know the biggest democratic mandate that they've been in British history I mean to me I'm still not over that that's crazy and it nearly happened you know it came so close to happening it was only Boris Johnson and that 2019 election that stopped it so that was the first one and then the second one was of course um Covid where we saw the true dark forces that have the power to quite literally stop the world if they want to but the good thing is is I think they overplayed their hand and so a lot of people now have started to wake up to this. It's scary though how the world can get locked down now people are standing and pubs two meters apart and it's it's silly from I ain't a scientist or a doctor and I still question what if I was wrong an 89.9% survival rate of something that again is just a normal flu again but people listen the world is controlled with fear so because people ain't bad for following what they're seen on the news because people genuinely believe the government have got the best interest yeah of course so it's nothing to do with oh you're wrong I'm right it's just a step back question oh yeah because we could be wrong as well yeah by the way I've never denied the existence of Covid I had Covid in March 2020 really early and it was nasty right at that point it was a nasty virus uh what I always questioned was the need to lock down the world there were loads of other things that could be done and also unfortunately viruses are gonna virus and that's what happened and the only way to actually open back up is to get to herd immunity point but it was just so disturbing how quickly uh governments loved the idea of completely controlling a population it shows you how easy it can be done so I think that's why now we always have to be questioning authority questioning the establishment questioning the blob and obviously for me um the biggest thing that I'm passionate about because it's my area of expertise is the media you know I remember I was in the mainstream media for 20 years but I believe the mainstream media is completely corrupt and uh doesn't always tell the truth and actually very often doesn't tell the truth these days yeah but who does and that's why it's important for people listening and watching to question everything yeah now we just a couple of conspiracy nuts get your tin foil hat on people saying that's fair but people jump on a trend whether it's Russia Ukraine whether it's Palestine Israel people jump on a trend of what's trendy then and it's but I'm telling you I think you'll see of it though but it has to repeats itself consistently every 100 years we've got we've got plagues we've got fucking viruses we've got wars we've got fucking deprived people homelessness is on the rise there's over two billion people on this planet without water how can people without water this day and age 2024 with the food that we waste it's unbelievable how corrupt and poisonous the world can be for me keep yourself at stay open minded try and not watch as much tv come off your phone as well because me and you are in the system down even doing these sort of shows we still crave views we still crave attention we still crave to clear our name and stuff like that but the bottom line is if you get canceled or whatever it is who fucking cares what life goes on people get canceled it's not the end of the world who genuinely gives a fuck it just feels as if your whole world's come crushing down you've lost everything and you kind of want it back but again that's still ego that's still great because I've worked so hard to create a level of understanding and give people a platform and then to feel as if you've lost at all it's damaging towards this now 100 and I've had to realize over the past year that I have no right to a platform I didn't have a god-given right to to be on tv to write for the biggest news website in the world I didn't have that right but I guess what I feel heartened by is that where I see the media moving obviously looked at this really closely and you're an example of this is people want people are much more likely to trust an individual now than they are an organization and I think they're right to do that because it's easier to see inside one human being than it is a big organization that is probably being funded by billionaires has money coming from potentially corrupt states and I'm heartened by that but you're right no one has a right to a platform and one of the things that has been quite exciting for me actually now with launching my own platform is I'm going to have to earn this I mean I'm going to have to earn it there is a total democratization of the media now if people don't trust me they're not going to follow me thus certainly not going to help fund me and I'm not funded by anyone now apart from my audience so I think you're completely right a lot of it is down to ego in the mainstream media and believe me when you go through the sort of brutal cancellation like I've gone through you have no ego left no there is no there is yeah I'm not saying I didn't have an ego I mean I most certainly did but uh but yeah when you've gone through a cancellation like that your ego goes so humbles you oh yeah but then you become a better journalist and understand people now it's not just all one-way traffic because information that you've been fed for the last 20 years the majority that could be bullshit yeah you've just tasted that and now it's to make amends and then go okay listen I fucked up I need to apologize to a lot of people but there's only so many times you can say sorry without flipping my chapter and moving on what was it like having a girlfriend well it was it was odd it was odd but you know I was very much in love with her but I then learned it was something that does happen with quite a lot of gay men so I was I was 21 and she was 40 so often a gay man is attracted to an older woman when they are working out their sexuality is that a mother figure they're looking for what is that no I don't think it's a mother figure thing I think it's just someone who's experienced and who is quite worldly wise um but yeah my situation was quite crazy and I've never spoken about it before but she was actually the TV presenter of the show that I was working on as like a young researcher and she then so we were together about 10 months or something like that she then left me for a very famous actor a guy called John Rhys Davies who played Gimli in Lord of the Rings and he was 60 so it actually became like a bit of a story in New Zealand because I was 20 she was 40 she leaves the 20 year old for the 60 year old and that's when you know you're gay me and if somebody leaves you for a 60 year old I know I'm mortified but look it's it feels odd now um it feels odd now but I don't really have any regrets because I think you have to sometimes go through these experiences to know who you are because people struggle people struggle to talk how they're feeling and what they are even people with addiction gambling addiction drug addiction as for me back in the day it was too much pride I couldn't admit that was a fuck up or a failure because I thought how would people judge and now I know that everybody's the exact same we're all fucked up people relate to you more when you actually become honest so you coming out people are actually respecting more because that takes strength people speaking about it takes strength so when you avenge why do you think it is so difficult for men because every industry acting out any industry even the footballers there's only one or two men in the UK ever came out was gay come on man I must be one in every team I'm not I'm just making up these numbers but it must be so hard for them especially my manly environment yeah I do have mixed views on this being honest though because I mean I was very young when I was in that relationship and I knew it was never gonna last and I knew that that I was gay and what I do struggle with is for example you know Philip Schofields with his wife for decades talks to the public about how he's in you know this commission relationship with the woman then he comes out and he's hero worshiped by the gay community so the gay community hate me because they consider that I'm on the rise even though I've always been open about my sexuality for the whole time I've been in the industry you know from 21 onwards but all of a sudden Philip Schofield was a hero and I struggled with that because I thought well what about his wife what about his kids I mean there are you know look I don't judge people it's difficult and also I'm a different generation so I was lucky and I think the next generation like my boyfriend's generation was even easier to come out but I think you've got to be conscious of the people who you hurt you know so with my ex I was very young she was old or older my age now actually but you know I wasn't hurting her she left me for an older guy no damage was done you know you've you've got to think about sometimes who who you're hurting so yeah it's a tough one it's a tough one but no it's still very difficult to come out obviously there's loads of gay footballers we know that we know well I'm pretty certain who some of them are and there is still a stigma but I think some of it comes down to a bit of personal strength and a bit of personal bravery too because as I say and I'm not trying to big myself up but it was also really hard entering the Fleet Street officers in 2007 as a gay man I mean there was no one out and gay working on Fleet Street in any senior positions and I proved that you could do it do you see what I mean so we need a bit of personal bravery from people too yeah but again it must be hard for people to love that line once it goes too far there's no turning back that's the problem a lot of scorefield come on like how can you be a hero if you've lied and cheated on your way for over 20 years that was my issue and also you know because a lot of people you know it was one of the things that actually ended up leading to my cancellation because people have thought I've been a hypocrite over Phillips Gopher and it's like hang on a moment no I've I've never lied about who I am the whole time I've been in in the public eye you know once I knew that I was definitely going to be gay and I'd had the relationship with the woman and you know I'd had my little experimentation as I say I told my parents when I was 15 but that was like from the 21 years old and over you know I was always open about it always I mean but it's certainly not I think the other thing that's a big thing for me is I have the ever talk about being gay I mean this is actually quite odd because for me it's such a tiny part of who I am I hate people I hate them but I dislike people whose entire identity is about what their sexuality is I find that sort of quite dull do you know what I mean I'm in a monogamous happy relationship with the most amazing guy you've met today actually yeah Alan and he's you know we've been together for four years we are totally boring do you know what I mean like and I don't it's not a big part of me but I do struggle with that thing of oh you're a hero for coming out and I always used to find it really weird that there are sort of rules when you're working in the British media about you're not allowed to out someone which obviously like makes sense but sometimes there were guys who were like everyone knew they were gay and that and I was like well why can't we say that they're dating someone do you see what I mean it's sort of if there's not a stigma around it but everybody in Schofield was gay for years oh yeah it's the women of the T-boy I don't understand because even the kid Jack Jones had done a video with the balloons and it was like there's a lot of dark up there and these people no matter how dark it goes they'll keep their job because of organizations losing money losing views and it's just too much business oh no that that was the thing for me because again with Philip Schofield people thought that I had some sort of personal issue against Philip I mean he had tried to get me sat a few times right so I didn't love the bloke but it was never about that it was about the fact that ITV had covered up this relationship and the guy you know who remember I know pretty well was in a really dark place mentally and all of the loose women ladies were absolutely horrified because they were basically dealing with this guy having a breakdown on their show and I was working for the son at the time I was the executive editor of the son and we believed it was a legitimate story not because it was about Alteen Philip Schofield but because there was this cover-up with an ITV do you see what I mean but you know powerful forces you know ITV investigate themselves and clear themselves you know it's a loop ITV BBC listen people these are powerful forces and like we said earlier if they want you they'll get you well of course they do on the media but the thing about these platforms now this is a new media there's an understanding of the guest it's a longer format not to judge the person but to understand the person anybody can come on here and talk shit that's okay with them the thing about the UK public damn we can see through bullshit we can see through a lot of bullshit we're quite clued up on who's real and who's fake and the media now so do you remember like the son used to be considered the voice of the British public because this was before or like the working class British public this was before social media and I think that's why the son was such a big force because very often it would represent the public in a way the rest of the media wouldn't but actually that's really changed over the past decade because actually no we're not going to allow the son to tell us what we think about things because obviously the son went down the narrative of Phillips gofields a hero he's so brave he's come out I mean that's just one example that happens all the time and you're right the British public called it out and said no this is bullshit we don't support him and eventually Holly Willoughby sort of got the message and she turned but but I think the media or the mainstream media at least has lost its power and that's because of social media but they got it things were starting to build up with them especially the Queen's death when they were queuing up and Beckham was there 13, 14 hours in the queue if anybody should jump in the queue it should be Beck's do you know what I mean they need to queue jump zero Fox given you just he's just kind of and then people ain't daft people don't like that shit why should I mean I would not have even considered applying to skip the queue to see the Queen's coffin you know I could have I was doing the prime time broadcast on GB news that whole week I could have said oh there's no way that I could possibly line up for 13 hours so you've got it I just would not have even considered it so I do think it was a moment about entitlement and the thing is remember I for loads of reasons I've always been an outsider um but these sort of insiders and Westminster stuff they do believe they're entitled and they do believe that they should be treated differently because remember it wasn't just Holly and Phil that skipped the queue you know about it was loads yeah hundreds yeah yeah it was loads but hundreds of media figures they're the golden chiles are fucking they're the golden couple are day time TV man they were yeah and they'll had jobs everywhere and like I say things change people yeah no matter if it's 10 years 20 years things always come to the surface when did you come to the UK Dan where was the first it was the end of 2004 and I was 21 years old this relationship with the woman had broken up and it had sort of got into the newspapers so I wanted to escape but to be honest I'd always I mean as I said I was a weird teenager like my auntie who lived over in London she used to send like copies of NME or the Sun you know like because obviously it was pre internet or the internet was really young at that point I'm 40 and I'd read these magazines I'd be like yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna move to the UK I'm gonna make it in Fleet Street um it was my dream to do it um and you know I came from you know my from a working class background my parents were both teachers um you know did not go to to public school you know went to you know a normal school in New Zealand and um in some ways it was really unlikely but I as I say I sort of had this determination so when I moved over in the end of 2004 for the first um three months I literally had no money nothing so I had to keep getting little loans from my parents but I was so determined that I wasn't gonna work in a bar because that's what lots of Kiwis and Aussies come over and do and I was like no I'm not gonna do that really really want to get a job as a journalist so I was getting really desperate but I finally got a job and it was as an editorial assistant on I mean I hated it on like a financial publication called futures and options week which was about derivatives trading and I knew absolutely nothing about it right and was speaking to like hedge fund managers and stuff who knew I knew nothing about it but the point is like I had a job in journalism and it was an incredible moment I was being paid £18,000 a year I was actually living in this flat in Acton um it was a really famous flat that had been written about in the Australian newspapers right because what they've done is that divided up the attic into like 10 different partitions and literally like people would just sleep on the mattresses for like £5 a night so there were basically 20 people living in this house like it was insane but I put up with it all because I just believed that if I could enter journalism I thought that I would be able to make it but I didn't know anyone I had no contacts um you know because it is an industry where most not most but a lot of people get in through some sort of connection you know there's a lot of journalism nepo babies where did you get that belief from I think it was that upbringing well firstly my I mean my parents always instilled such a belief in me that I could succeed never in an overly ambitious way but as I say they were teachers they they really believed in me so then I believed in myself but I think the other thing was that it was because of how badly bullied in everything that I was I mean there's this amazing book called The Velvet Rage and actually speaking of Phillips Gopher when he came out I actually recommended that he read it because The Velvet Rage is all about why people have been closeted when they're growing up can be really angry about a lot of stuff because it changes your personality but the other thing in The Velvet Rage is that you'll see like people say why are so many gay men so successful professionally because actually you think about it there are lots of gay men right especially in like the world of entertainment media and it is because when you're growing up and you're having to hide who you are and you're often being bullied for it it gives you this sort of added determination to succeed but what you learn and what I certainly learned the hard way is that professional success does not equal happiness well we in percent this is a material world and I've got the nice car I've got nice watches but people need to understand being rich is a scam it's the biggest scam on the planet money's an illusion everything yeah it's a bullshit actually I craved that because I thought that would fill the pieces I thought that's where I would find my completion I thought that's where I would strive and be happy and the more I got it the more miserable because I realized wait a minute this don't make me happy because money we give it so much meaning and value for something it doesn't really exist we kill for it we die for it and for what the world is controlled by power you take away the currency you take away the money people need to interact wars wouldn't happen if people had a conversation it's not the young kids who are killing the people with the ones in suits pulling the strings and making the moves to make them rich again and make bullying so for me being rich is a scam and I can only see that because I'm doing well now so people need to it's good to experience new things I remember I got a Range Rover in a cringe because I thought that's sitting on post bottles and people think I'm doing well I remember driving down the motorway and I was fucking unhappy yeah because I realized soon that because I've built my platform slowly I've not just let these kids in love Ireland I've not just jumped in and I've got this overnight fame I've kind of worked at it now I can understand people that it's all bullshit because we all struggle so and I'm not saying listen it's good but who the fuck wants to be a billionaire in hundreds of mullies because the level of sacrifice and no life that these people have that's not the way I live in it because if you're putting food on the table for your family you're winning you're a winner you're a successful man or woman who it is who you want to and also you know who the genuine people around you are because let me tell you if you're a billionaire or if you're very famous hardly anyone around you is there for genuine reasons and I know that through my cancellation of over the past year you know the vast majority of people when you lose everything run away and so you realize who the genuine people are so for me obviously my family obviously my partner but then who is it well it's the people who really know me so the people who are at school with me the people who are at university with me you know my my friends from my childhood they were the ones who didn't care once I was cancelled because they know the real me and so I think you're completely right I don't mean again this might be a cliche but it is so true and remember I spent years and years and years covering all the biggest celebrities in the UK and the world the vast vast majority of celebrities are deeply unhappy quite twisted people and I don't blame them in a lot of ways you know it's a twisted world but yeah their heads are gone yeah people in reality show stuff and I'm friends with a majority of them because they seek help from me I don't have all the answers I can only speak because I don't drink don't take drugs anymore I'm on a good path I understand life but people need to stop buying into the fakery of social media because as long as you've got food on the table your kids are healthy your partners healthy you're winning everybody defines success and levels of how much money they've got differently but as long as you're getting up in the morning and doing something with a purpose of putting food on the table you're already winning now you can go and achieve whatever you want in life I'm all for that but just don't try and achieve what you think's going to fill the pieces because it's not as real as it's made out to be and that's where I get the good understanding of trying to promote a good message and it's hard for me to say this shit as well because like I say I've got a fucking Rolex on I'm driving a Range Rover but I just know that's not what wakes me up in the morning to go look what I'm doing in life I don't really show off I'm not I do my own thing I just love interviewing people spending time with my family family's difficult as well the other ones who are always there no matter what happens but it's still fucking hard to try and please everyone and do the right things but just people need to realize it's not what it's made out to be your life's not an adequate a shit because somebody's getting a private plane to Dubai because it's all fake don't buy into that bullshit yeah I mean it was interesting with me because I've never been driven by money ever money was just something that came but I absolutely was driven by success and obviously with the success that came in my world the fame that came was more notoriety if you know what I mean I'd say I was more infamous than famous because I was reporting on other famous people so it was never the money and the fame that drove me but it was success I wanted to be successful and you're so right that actually and again it's probably only over the last year that I've really understood this success is having a good family having a supportive partner being able to put food on the table and yeah maybe once a year getting to go on a lovely holiday together you know that actually is success so I was chasing I guess I was chasing the wrong type of success but we do because I could have fame I thought fame I would have made that I thought fame would have gave me and I'm only a very small where I'm going to go in life I'm very confident where I'm going but it's not where you're going to find your completion it's not where you're going to get your answers you'll soon realize that these people in that industry are so fucked in the head you can't even have a conversational majority of them are coped up majority of them are suicidal the majority of them are just pretending instead of being honest and going to work this is all fucked up because yeah every superstar out there the Elvis movie he was the most popular he was the most popular man on the planet but yet it was suicidal because he thought people would forget him Michael Jackson Whitney Houston there's just something that's not normal well no and also for every Taylor Swift there is a one direction and if you look at one direction you know four out of the five members and remember I covered them very closely at the time are really unhappy because they're never going to get that fame that they had so I mean it's hard especially for young people who who become famous but I do understand my people chase it and crave it but it doesn't provide the solutions yes you'll see these 90s stars still trying to hang on and all trying to get new groups together and boy bands I do love that and yeah that's what I'm saying but there's something and that they must crave where I know because if people are screaming outside your hotel and then that goes the fear is if nobody cares anymore but that's just all part parcel of that industry when I was growing up I would have done anything to be a member of blue right I thought they were literally and they still are don't be wrong I know a couple of boys are really good guys I thought they were the coolest guys on the planet and they are and I'm not taking that away from them but I got to know them really well right when I was doing the show but circuit and you know they have been through the mill every single one of them they've all been bankrupt they've all lost it all they have been betrayed by managers they've been betrayed by the media you know it's it's tough that's what I'm saying it's it's tough so you should always follow so for me and I actually did do this I never went into journalism because or broadcast because I wanted to be famous I went into it because I loved the pursuit of it and I just that's what I encourage people to do you know don't try and become a makeup artist because you you want to be an influencer become a makeup artist because you really love makeup and then let the other stuff build you see these people on x-factor and they say they love singing and love music they can sing in a karaoke bar with the same passion they're craving something because they think again and that's what the magazines and newspapers sell you that's a fucking wonderful life but it's not my life well no and I mean that world because again you know that was when I was at the height of my sort of I guess powers as a showbiz journalist was around the x-factor and I really got to know and like a lot of those contestants but you speak to them now and so many of them are totally damaged and traumatized by what happened to them even though at the time all they wanted was success on that show and remember they made a lot of money but the problem is they were all promised an unrealistic dream and as I say for every harry styles there's 10 000 who didn't make it and then have to go back and do a day job and that's really difficult what was the first big story you'd done probably the first really big one was my first weekend news of the world and I don't know if you remember there was a growing scandal about all of the TV big tv shows faking competitions and it actually became like a huge story and do you know james marson who hosts um saturday kitchen or he used to host saturday kitchen on the bbc so quite a famous chef and i'd got this tip off that the bbc which is obviously really bad was faking these competitions so what they would do is they would pretend that the show was live but still encourage people to ring in and into the competition and pay money right for a competition that they literally couldn't win because the show had been pre-recorded but why i was so proud of it is the way that we basically totally rumbled him is that he had his watch on and his watch had the wrong time on so it proved that the show wasn't live if you see what i mean so i had to go outside james marson's office and i think he yelled at me he swore at me but that was like my first big scoop and i'd sort of made it um and that was in 2007 when does it consume you though from try to get that big story for me and you and it's how it seems you try to get the big guess it becomes when i remember having a thousand viewers i remember having one thousand viewers and it's the halfest i've ever been since been on this johnny no we have mullions i think yeah so something must the wires must something must happen so yeah it's all consuming and it becomes quite addictive and that is not a good thing but obviously if you're a journalist there's something in you and there's always been something in me like people would say it's gossip and of course a lot of it is gossip but i love telling people things right but that can be quite toxic too so i loved breaking big stories i do think though and this is not to say that i've always been perfect in any way and i have admitted when i got things wrong but what i never ever set out to do is destroy anyone ever you know my sort of journalism was always about breaking good stories but usually with the cooperation of the people who you were working with right because there's a real i mean this has changed obviously with social media but before social media you know the sun's bizarre column and the news of the world show was column i mean they were the places to be if you wanted to sell an album so there was sort of a quid pro quo relationship going on however i would say over recent years you know i've learned that actually quite a lot of these celebrities who treated you like your best friend were doing it because they were probably terrified that you were going to write a negative story about them but my goal was never to destroy celebrities to bring celebrities down that was never the goal it was to write good stories about people but actually my favorite thing was interviewing people you know i love interviewing people and i loved trying to get big revelations out of celebrities you know and i interviewed all of the biggest stars many of the multiple times you know i was the first journalist who championed Taylor Swift in the UK for example when she was just a young country singer so i got to know her and her family really well you know Rihanna back in the the early days lady gargar before she she was famous Katy Perry you know so for me because i loved pop music so much i guess i never yeah i always saw it as yes sometimes we would have to write difficult stories but on the whole these celebrities would want someone who could present their side of the story but also promote their latest album or their latest because they say in all such things bad press was as true to a degree but the negative stories do come at a cost now you've tasted it now you understand it back then it's cutthroat people don't really question it because people got every bit of information from the world from the newspapers oh yeah and there was certainly people who so if we're talking about regrets and remember i was at this point a relatively small part of the system i became much bigger as my career went on but there's some i look back on and i was like no no no we took it too far one of them is a person who you know very well Kerry Katona and uh katie price too who i who i know you've interviewed recently and i knew both of those women and clearly in some ways that they're flawed individuals but they're also pretty nice people actually who were totally chewed up and spat out by fame and certainly there are times when i look back i think oh god no we we took it too far with them but they were selling papers and um they they knew they needed that do you do you see what i mean so because so i always preferred i guess my relationships with the a-list the sort of the a-list crowd because they didn't really need the newspapers and it was a different sort of relationship that you had you know if you're talking about i don't know pink or shinaya twain or people like that whereas Kerry and katie it was a different sort of world there aren't any papers over the day there was two of them and it must be damaging to the main that must be struggling because do you think as it comes our team when they just accept it as well because of who they are but they must come our team it must be detrimental to the i was really good friends with nikki graham uh who was the big star of big brother in the uk and she was anorexic before she went on big brother and she died of anorexia not too long ago which was absolutely heartbreaking to me now you look at that and it's a really difficult one should nikki graham ever have been allowed to go on big brother as an anorexic maybe not but at the same time um would she have had all of these amazing experiences in her life if she didn't it's you know it's it's really really difficult um and obviously the one who i get the most criticism of which is entirely unfair is caroline caroline flat because i worked incredibly closely with her and was friendly with her and friends with her for years for years and years and years and years i always had caroline's back always looked after her she was a really vulnerable person um but a narrative a completely untrue narrative around that has developed um because of some stories that the sun wrote about caroline flat that had absolutely nothing to do with me yeah the media did push that girl over there do you think but like i say i know people and she did struggle prior to that anyway i don't know the engine out of our relationship the thing is the thing is though it wasn't the me like so i was speaking to caroline through all of that time right i've still got the messages between us in all of those weeks before she died and caroline had actually said to me i want to do the interview with you i want to talk about what happened she was being advised not to the thing that pushed caroline over the edge was the fact that the police decided to overrule the cps and and charged her you know she could have just got a caution she should have just got a caution and it was the trial by media and it was also the fact that she lost her job on on love island too so yeah a really untrue narrative has developed around caroline and i and that's really difficult for me because how how can you you know i know what the truth is people close to her know what the truth is but sometimes when a when a media narrative develops it can be impossible to change how is that when you lose people that you know from shirts eight oh it's the worst it's the absolute worst um i mean that was yeah that was an utterly devastating time uh but i was also friends with mike thalassitis who was the love island contestant who had committed suicide or i don't think you meant to say that now but you know i i don't do the pc thing but had taken his own life a couple of weeks before caroline and i was actually at the funeral at his funeral with caroline so that and spoke to her there and then obviously just a couple of weeks she was in the same spot so yeah it's i think it posed big questions about reality tv i'd always thought for a long time because remember like there was that error of the x-factor where contestants were and i mean by the way i loved the x-factor it was my favorite show in the world i loved it i loved it when the judges were mean i loved it i can't deny that i loved that show but i always thought god what if one of these you know what if one of these contestants does something to themselves that could shut the whole thing down but of course it didn't shut down love island you know itv pushed on and it probably shouldn't i mean you can't ever blame someone else for taking their own life and i have experienced suicide in my personal world and it's a very devastating complicated thing where no one is to blame so i think yeah i think it's it's really hard when these media narratives develop around it which are very often unfair but suicide's always going to be a touchy subject for people to speak about but people struggle in battling and decide to end that day it's probably a bigger strength to take your own life that's how when you think about it that people would rather take their own life than actually speak about their problems because we're judged too much pride and we get judged of because bottom line is for any person on this planet nobody really fucking cares dan nobody genuinely really cares you you've felt it more so now when you realize the wait a minute it's different when you're working for all these big newspapers you feel as if you're the big i am yeah you're interviewing the biggest names on the planet like it must be a tasty thing of because my job is to interview the biggest people get the biggest story because it feels good certain interview in a day kind of exclusive and you kind of feels good of okay i must be doing something right but in 10 minutes later the fizzles who's next and obviously i'm not as dark in that industry of trying to get that story and it's very everybody's out for themselves always fought like the news of the world the sunday meal the mirror i thought everybody worked together but it all seemed as if everybody was out to get each other yeah i mean there was lots of competition for big stories but as i say i did it differently because the news of the world had been in this big phone hacking scandal right um which happened before 2007 and actually the royal editor of the news of the world a guy called clive goodman actually went to jail for hacking into foams so i joined the news of the world in 2007 which was at a completely different point where they had decided we're gonna do things legitimately and that was really good for me because i've been working for this this newspaper called broadcast magazine which was all about the tv industry so i never used the dark arts of tabloid journalism which had gone on for about sort of 10 years or maybe even longer 20 years before that so they were like private investigators and these things called blaggers which is when someone would like call up i mean stuff now you think god i can't believe that this is going on you know they'd call up and i don't know maybe your insurance company and i'd pretend to be you in order to get personal information and the hackers so that had all gone on right in fleet street but by the time i joined it had completely changed because no journalist is going to risk going to jail for a story right why are you going to do that the only thing that i would risk going to jail for and i've always said this is to protect a source so if i was ever in court and a judge told me to reveal a source of a story i would go to jail if i had to because to me that is the fundamental principle of journalism that you protect your sources and it was a disgrace that over the time of the phone hacking scandal lots of these companies actually handed over their sources to the police i just i find that absolutely abhorrent but that's a slight aside the point that i was making is that when i came into this in 2007 it's like if i break the law i will go to jail right and when the news of the world shut in 2011 do you know news uk the company that was at the time news international handed over all of their staff's emails to the police so lots of people were arrested lots of people ended up on trial if i had done anything illegal i would have been arrested you know the police were literally doing dawn raids of journalists homes to arrest them so the great thing was i always knew i was completely clean i did a different sort of journalism i did like the old school journalism which was all about talking to people meeting people offering people opportunities with payments do you know what i mean i'm very honest about that we did checkbook journalism you know katie price you tell us about your new boyfriend here's a hundred thousand pounds do you know i mean that's what was going on but i never tried to invade someone's privacy by breaking the law or like reading their emails or the phone hacking stuff was crazy and the gaza i had gaza on and i laughed because i had gaza on and i laughed because it is fucked up remember he was drinking back then yes and he he loved the people who surrounded themselves with stories kept getting into the papers he ended up falling out with everyone around them family members relationships the trust goes and it turns out they were hacking a poor bastard phone and that was the terrible thing about hacking and obviously like i've asked myself lots of times don't get me wrong what if i'd been there earlier right and all of you're getting involved yeah and all of it but but but genuinely though i wouldn't have because princess dayana had the bodyguard on then they were getting one million pound for an exclusive for i know i know but the thing is right you know as a journalist right and wrong yeah and reading someone's that's cheating do you know basically it's the equivalent of a bodybuilder taking steroids to win a competition it's cheating where where's the satisfaction in that journalism is all about using contacts or official means to get the true story do you see what i mean so if you're just hacking into someone's phone yeah you're getting the true story but it's grim so i look i just know i would never have done the juicy the difference in celebrities at the start of their journey to them when they make it oh god yeah god yeah they all change i mean taylor swift is a great example of that right i mean and can you blame her probably not but she was just a truly genuinely lovely human being so i remember the first time we met you know her mom's there she went down to pink berry and got us the frozen yogurts and i'm literally in her hotel room and we're talking for hours she's got the Grammys the next day but she's not the big star of the Grammys at that point you know i mean she's doing a duet with with miley cyrus on stage and every time i'd see her to begin with she'd treat me like a friend you know she'd call me a friend um she'd actually say hello friend you know that's how that was her thing and then by the last time i had interviewed her which was in cologne germany and this is around the time of um after 1989 but before reputation you could just see there was a big big change and there was so much control so i was there with a different crew from itv news and taylor's team actually took their tapes because they had control of the cameras and like edited out certain answers and gave them the tapes back so they refused to to run the interview i wasn't doing an interview with her like that i was um working for the lorraine show on itv at the time i was the show was presented so we weren't trying to trick her out but she was just different she had changed obviously by that point the canyé west thing had happened and she turned on the media and she viewed the media as her tormentors yeah and so then i i sort of fell out with her um which i think was a shame because no one had been more supportive of her in the uk right from the start but again it's one of those things now with hindsight i look back on and i think yeah but she felt like all the media had turned on her do you see what i mean she couldn't see anything positive anymore about giving interviews or having these relationships with the media because she'd been so bad badly burned by that experience with kim and canyé i would say though taylor knew how to give it out too yeah you know she attacked her enemies she seems to be the time and again the biggest name on the planet oh she is she is and you know what she deserves it because her music is good and i i think that's what it comes down to in the end i've always believed in that in pop it's like if your music is good enough you will prevail how did this stay relevant do you see them when they had a number one album other yeah they're super powerful and then it's slap slap do you see that change also when they go from the top to the bottom and it's actually really sad to see it's really sad to see because so many celebrities at the peak of their fame right they regret that they didn't make the most of it and you see them years later and they're desperate they're desperate to have the opportunities that they had at the time but at the time and one direction is a great example of this they were just under too much pressure to actually enjoy these incredible experiences they were having and you know i felt like saying guys you should be enjoying this because you're never going to get this again and believe me you're going to want it and of course that's what happened they go solo there's only one big success story that's harry styles and the rest of them are going to spend the rest of their lives trying to achieve the success that they had in one direction they'll probably never get it again but there are a few genuine legends i think left and they were always the people i was most interested in and you know what's interesting they are always the ones who are the kindest so clearly i would see the likes of little mix you know who i adored and i knew them when they were little girls and then they become divas and nightmares that happens right that's sort of the process but the people who i had the biggest respect for were paul mccartney dolly parton um probably i'd say rihanna to sort of the the the true the true big stars know how to treat people right know what they have to do in interviews you know they've got to give enough of themselves and they treat people well but i guess it's easy for them to do that who's your most interviewer do you know what i do really like her now but it was definitely kim kardashian uh because she just didn't give a damn honestly i've never seen anything like it she had a blanket over her she was on her black brie the whole time she was nearly like falling asleep um yeah she but again i think she's learned a lot of lessons though over the years too because i don't think she would ever do that now actually i think she treats people with lots of lots of respect but you know i love crazy celebrities do you know what i mean like i was on the road with like kanye west and mariah kerry and justin beaver right all three of them now you can't say that the three of them are nice people but i love them i mean total divas absolute nightmares but come on isn't that what you want a celebrity to be i mean i don't want my celebrities to be down to earth i mean mariah kept me waiting eight hours but then she allowed me to like just be part of her entourage and just follow around i found it absolutely fascinating justin is like um the rudest little kid do you know what i mean like the most precocious difficult nightmare of a guy but of course of course he is you know he he's been in that world since he was really really really young kanye clearly a genius but really troubled and i got to know him just after his mum had died so clearly that was like a really tough time for him and actually britney too you know really really lovely woman um but someone who has been so hit hard by fame and used by so many people um so yeah so i i think look you don't want your celebrities to be normal do you i mean i don't i found it fascinating yeah totally and for a journalist it's the perfect story yeah because it sells papers it makes you money it keeps you keeps everybody relevant if you're creating all stories but they like i say those names it shows you how and you can't even know all the shit you went through you've still got to give credit for credit steward those names are the biggest names in the world that's you at the peak of your power how was that feeling for you well i think for me i had i love music i love the world of celebrity i wanted to interview the biggest names in the world but for me it was about actually getting people to talk about things that they wouldn't talk about in normal interviews it's very much what you do you know i had my podcast when i was at the sun and it was my goal to get madonna on that podcast and i'd interviewed her previously um a couple of times and she's the most difficult interview you can ever have you know she's not i you know um by the way again i love her but she's not kind she's terrifying do you know what i mean she questions your questions and she's tough but i built up the trust with her enough to have her on the podcast and she talked really really openly about difficult things in her life being raped um about controversial subjects like why she thinks instagram is really evil and i don't want her to be easy so yeah i mean i would say i interviewed or got to know the biggest stars on the planet in a particular period of time and that was amazing i think we're losing a lot of stars now they're in many ledges you're not a star from yeah people can be a bigger star on social media and tiktok than actually someone who's got a talent like it like your freddy mercaries and just people who you would i would have loved to have interviewed them i watched that movie and i thought wow that was fucking unbelievable michael jackson i watched that was it we are the world i think on netflix oh yes yes and just go and for me that was stars that they were probably that's who i see celebrities steve wonders ray charles michael jackson well think of who we've lost as well whitney houston prince you know they are the true definition of stars but of course the star system has changed because as you say now celebrities hold the power so i was there during the transition towards social media and i understand it i mean why if you were a young celebrity so ed sharon's a good example of this i mean again i got to know him very very well and i think he's a really decent normal person but by the end of the time that i was interviewing him because i was moving off to do politics and different things he said to me dan why would any celebrity choose to be interviewed by a newspaper or magazine anymore because he's like even if you give me a fair interview what's going to happen and it's completely true still happens today is that there's going to be one line one quote buried within the interview you may have contextualized the quote but every media source in the world usually led by the mail online but followed by all the other websites is going to pull out that quote twist it put some sort of tabloid framing on it and so i sort of understood where he was coming from because i would be writing you know the full 2000 word piece or having the 45-minute podcast or whatever but but the world now works in sound bites so i understand i mean he does very few interviews adal very very few interviews but you don't need to do them at that level they're not even anything they're already they're multi-millionaires oh they've got too much money anyway but the adal seems and it's the ones who don't give the most social media that yeah that's what Ed Sheeran does he only puts his music on social media which is a good thing how does it work then dan so if you've got a story Ed Sheeran for instance do you need to give it to the editor or someone higher up to ring tick it off yeah and how could why does human beings gravitate towards the negativity that one headline because nobody wants to hear that i'm doing well and i'm staring Barbados that why do we gravitate towards the shit headlines i mean it's so funny like if you work at a place and this happened when i was working at gb news you know they'll do market research and the audience will say oh we want to have positive stories right you want to have positive stories you write a positive story you do a positive show you'll see the ratings or the viewing numbers plummet you know people are interested on the whole in in negative news but yeah at newspapers there's a whole system that creates the news and that was something i mean when i got quite senior by the end of my time i could usually control it but that is something that can be very frustrating as a journalist because you can present your story in an accurate way but then it goes through the sausage factory of the newspaper production process which means you take your list into a conference when you're sitting around a table with about 15 executives they decide whether they're interested in the story or not they're listening to all of the different stories you know so you'll have the news editor who's doing the news of the day the politics editor who's going through all the politics of the day the sports editor doing the sports today so they then decide which stories from each list they're interested in using and then what page of the paper they wanted to appear on but of course during that process what they also sometimes decide is what angle they want so so often of course with a story it will be about the headline or the picture selection and as the journalist you're not necessarily in control of that so that's something like i'm so excited about now with my new platform because it is completely independent so a new platform for people to check it out yeah so it's dan outspoken uh which is either at dan outspoken.com or on youtube as well uh which is because i'm gonna have a daily news and opinion show starting soon but i'm putting up video content in the meantime but it's the first time in my entire career where i don't have an editor who can potentially manipulate what i'm trying to say so that's obviously really empowering also quite terrifying yeah because i don't have the big media lawyers who have my back but you know johnny depths are really an interesting example of that because you know he ended up suing me and the son in the uk courts and amber heard gave evidence on our behalf so that was the uk case now we won that case right and then he won in in the us when it was directly against amber heard but the whole reason that court case happened was because of an online headline that called johnny depth a wife beta now i had never written the words wife beta ever i'm not lying and saying that the column wasn't critical of johnny depth it was but i'd never called him a wife beta so you can imagine my frustration around that right and that's what i mean by the newspaper sausage factory production process someone on what they call the back bench it's newspaper terminology right in the uk for the person who writes the headlines and don't get me wrong these people at the sun they are geniuses like they're so clever like they come up with some of the best headlines in the world like meg sit was created for my story at the sun by one of those genius people on the back bench they're great but in that case they caused huge huge issues for me because it's on my story do you know i mean it's got my name on the story but i never called johnny depth a wife beta how is that then like you say interview and all these people because that last few years all kind of got messy like the johnny depth thing was that court case because of that headline was that all through that headline yeah so basically he i think he wanted i mean look loads of things had been written about him all around the world but he chose my story to make his line in the sand and i do believe it was because of the headline that called him a wife beta um but as i say the story was tough and i've admitted my regret now and ever getting involved in johnny depth versus amberhead and by the way like that isn't me turning on amber it's really really not um because i was your friend aren't you i wouldn't say she's a friend i mean i literally never met her but obviously she then gave evidence in court on my behalf so i got to know her our politics are completely different right we're on the other ends of the political spectrum she's very woke she's very lefty but yeah i liked her i liked her i got to know her really liked her and i think she's had a really unfair time genuinely and i think we're all going to look back in 20 years time and think whoa we treated amberhead like we treated britney spares you know it's tough and how would people have felt if amberhead had committed suicide over the coverage that she received you know so the sad reality is because of that court case and it was shown on tv i don't think people would have been asked because it all went against her i know and the thing is i didn't even know it was 2011 they met she was only 22 and he was 50 i only thought it was a couple of years ago because of the court case that that was just kind of coming to her head then like she was and i'm not sticking up for her taking sides because i love johnny the the guy did lose 40 50 million whatever it is i don't know the ends and outs but i did see a lot of stuff on line in the court case and it made it was a very toxic relationship yes both of them they blame to a certain degree million percent from what i've seen but she was only 22 and he was in his fifties i think she was to go to an edition and he was the producer and they kind of met her and that's where the relationship stemmed from and it was that movie um god what was it called something about rum i saw it actually and look what my issue is is that and this was the bad side of me as a tabloid columnist right is i chose to insert myself into that story completely unnecessarily like why am i getting involved i don't know what happened i don't have any particular insight i call it a carnival of commentary you know i got involved in that carnival of commentary loads of journalists did but johnny chose me as the line in the sand as the person who he wanted to take to court at the time i thought that was a crazy decision right i'm like what are you doing why are you doing this all of your dirty laundry is going to be aired in court and it was and come on that case was not good for either of them the text messages were awful it was just awful the whole thing but and this is the big but i have now seen how an ex can try and destroy you with completely untrue allegations just because they hate you so much because they want to bring you down because they cannot stand that you have had success after them and it's just made me so much more wary about ever getting involved in something like that i think it has to follow due process you know so my view is that amber had legal recourse she had the option to go to the police she didn't want to at the time it should have been dealt with that way then the media should have backed off because there was nothing criminal against johnny we didn't i didn't my column was actually about jk rolling and that that gets lost in all of this it was it actually wasn't even about johnny dip basically i was accusing jk rolling of being a hypocrite because do you remember johnny dip was in the fantastic beasts franchise and jk rolling had stood by johnny dip but at the time jk rolling was big in the me too movement and saying we should believe all women now i don't believe that i don't believe we should believe all women i don't believe we should believe all men it's like it's got to be case by case and it's got to be based on evidence and and fat but i was wrong on i i was wrong to get involved that's my point i was wrong to get involved it was very different to other stories that i'd reported on so for example if you look at the other big stories i've been involved in the controversial ones which are like meg sis and harry and megan or the philip scofield story i was i knew everything about those stories i was involved in those stories do you know what i mean i was talking to the people who were involved i had actual journalism you know i revealed all of the big things about harry and megan and the royal family and scofield at this morning so that was different because i knew stuff that added to the story with johnny and amber i didn't know enough do you see what i'm saying i i i just made a judgment and i should not have got involved in it and i think johnny felt like and obviously at the time i thought he was idiotic for doing this and i wrote about it and his fans will never forgive me they will never ever forgive me the debt pads but now i understand that he basically felt like this was the only way for him to clear his his name and you can understand the depths that he went through like you say but they didn't do anybody favors but it did favor him most he did lose pirates in the caribbean i think deor stood by him deor survived me i gotta appreciate that but but none of the studios did none of the colleagues get rid of him and how damaging that is to him i think he's 60 and he's 60s now so one of the same things happened to gavin spicy yeah right so he was cleared was enough toxic well he's he compared to johnny he's actually been cleared in america and the uk right both so he won both his cases and he's still being cancelled to this day the big studios will not hire him so the mission of my life now james is to try and and some people call me a hypocrite right but i would argue actually because i know both sides i may be the best person to do this the mission of my life is to bring due process back to reporting we have to believe in innocent before proven guilty we have to allow both people to tell their sides of the story because i went through trial by social media and it was hell it was absolute hell and there is no due process in that whatsoever does that make you question the articles you've written it past to how people what they actually went through with some of the stuff that was written yeah so that's why for example i issued the public apology to johnny um and that's why for example with people like katie and kerry i would say yeah we went too far but not on harry and megan not on philips goford you know i'm not saying that there isn't a place for strong journalism and actually i think i was very very moralist journalists really interesting right so so when the whole world was coming down on me right and i was trending number one in the uk for i think three days in a row and you know that's a lot that's a lot you know you'll be the most talked about most googled person and it's all bad it's all bad there's nothing you know it's not for anything positive it's all bad but and i think this is pretty telling james right so so this was the opportunity for any celebrity who had an issue with me to speak out publicly like everyone was coming out against me right and only one did only one celebrity spoke out against me publicly and that was lily ellen and we have a long history right lily ellen and i and i'd say we both gave as good as we got to be honest she was no shrinking violet i think we do the same age do you know what i mean and i actually loved her music but she was really difficult and we had a few public rows and she called me out for a very nasty tweet that i'd sent and it was really horrible actually it was when she was having i think she'd collapsed at glaston brie after some sort of binge and i wrote a horrible tweet right but think of how many celebrities i've covered and interviewed over the years like hundreds and one spoke out against me publicly so i'd like to think that that shows that on the whole i tried to get things right and even like with katie and kerry for example like i'm friends with them both today i talked to them both i've interviewed them both do you know what i mean i think there's an understanding that i didn't always get it right but i wasn't trying to hurt you i wasn't trying to damage you i like you why was a johnny depp court case televised in america yeah so they just have different rules state by state and obviously it was a disaster for amber that it was televised because the uk case was not televised so did amber won the uk court case well what was it because i know yeah one one but a lot of people don't know that so this is so this is what the depp fans basically say that johnny only won because in the uk and this is what people have missed the uk case was actually johnny depp versus dan wotan and the son in america it was johnny depp versus amber heard but amber heard gave evidence on my behalf and the judge sided with her so in the uk it was a judge-led trial in the us it was a jury-led trial you know but if you speak to people in the us who i have huge respect for like my friend megan kelly who's like the top one of the top legal commentators in the uk as well as being a brilliant broadcaster and you know her view is that johnny won that case fair and square but in the uk the judge came to a different decision yeah that's a messy thing and amber did not look good than that at all everybody was siding for johnny and even for women that stops women from coming actually forward the majority of people don't come forward the cause of things like that can happen and it stops actual victims from coming forward and it shows that listen the majority of sexual crimes come from men but the majority of false accusations come from women so it's i know and the thing is we cannot forget that there is a high number of false accusations so for example we now have care starmer who's you know probably going to be the next prime minister of the uk i call him slippery starmer and he basically says all women should be believed you know if an accusation is made against a member of parliament they should lose their job immediately how terrifying is that you know about one in ten complaints about high-profile celebrity investigations for example in the uk there was the utri investigation which was sparked after the jimmy savel case which was a terrible cover-up right he was like the most prolific pedophile in the country and was allowed to get away with it for decades covered up by the bbc so then there was a big investigation lots of other celebrities went down well one in ten that the detective in charge of utri said that one in ten of sexual assault allegations were untrue i mean that is a really high number and so when people are going around saying believe all women that is really crazy and i just ask people to think especially people like slippery starmer how would you feel if some woman came out and claimed that you sexually assaulted her at university and you had to stand down and lose your job was well potentially prime minister of the uk no we have to allow due process to play out so what i'm campaigning for is that you should not be named until you have been charged by the police so that means that the police and the cps this is talking in a uk context and i know it works differently in other parts of the world but that means that the police and the cps believe that there is pretty much like an over 50 chance that you could be found guilty of this crime before that why on earth should should you be named because what this is encouraging people to do is weaponize the justice system and it happened with me the allegations were completely untrue but the police were pressured into an investigation and then it's like oh the police are investigating there must be something in it no no the police investigate to see if there's anything in it yeah men need more protection because i interviewed that man just a few weeks ago called brine banks he was an nfl rising star and then you never even slept with this girl he met behind like a library or whatever it was she accused him of rape he went to um so no evidence no nothing but he went to prison and then that his lawyer was telling him look just plead to no contest you about soon the kid gets six years lost his life six years had done in prison lost his livelihood his mother ended up homeless sold her house in her car for lawyer fees and then what happened is 12 years later the girl admitted that she was lying the girl get 1.5 million compensation as well that guy only got 200 grand after 12 years so men need more protection but again a lot majority of sexual crimes come from men and a lot of women are scared to speak out so it's understandable but for printing names and destroying lives beforehand that needs to stop and remember James especially when you're talking about high-profile people because the difference is right if you're i don't know a builder or a lawyer or something like that probably you can keep doing your job if there's just an investigation into you obviously it's different if you're a teacher or or something like that but if you're a high-profile person you can work 20 years to build up your reputation and it can be destroyed in 20 minutes all you literally need is one tweet saying that you're being investigated for something people say there's no smoke without fire and that lack of protection is despicable given that we know we know that loads of these allegations now are being made for political reasons or to destroy someone specifically to destroy someone and you know what's terrible is that it's it's actually a crime to falsely report a sexual assault but very rarely do those people end up in prison. One who did was a guy called Carl Beach who was a notorious pedophile and he invented this whole fantasy around Operation Midland where he claimed loads of high-profile political figures in the UK including the former prime minister had been molesting him all completely made up but the left-wing media in the UK and this guy called James O'Brien who works for the biggest radio station in the UK called LBC just parroted it all. Carl Beach is now in jail as a pedophile and one of my false accusers is being investigated now by the police. He actually has the most despicable track record James he went to jail in Scotland for four years for extorting over a hundred thousand pounds out of gay men right the judge described him as a compulsive danger to society he gets out of jail he then does exactly the same thing to me where's my protection there and also what i'm thinking about most now is not me what about the next person who he does this to it's so disturbing and he's not named. So how did all this start then like you say probably the most dark times of your life when you've done an interview with Lauren Fox i think he said something about nobody would shag or something like that listen you never in your defense as well when i'm trying to look at every angle and understand that women may have been hurting we're living a day in age where you've got to be careful certain things that you've says but you never really interacted with what he says i think you had a little giggle but why was this the start of cancel Dan Wooten was this the start was this the start of it how did it work well it was sort of the end of it so what happened there is there's a journalist in the UK she's like i call her a leftist flamethrower she's called Ava Santina young beautiful woman seems to be very anti men she had done a debate on the BBC basically belittling the idea that there should be a minister for men even though there's a minister for women and even though male suicide is one of the biggest crises facing us right as a western society not just in the UK but all around the west because men are under so much pressure and being attacked in so many ways and she was really belittling about the idea of having a minister for men so Lawrence Fox you know famous actor very controversial figure he comes on my show and says that he would never want to shag this woman now as it turned out i didn't know this at the time but Ava Santina has used the word shag in a pejorative way about men time and time again on social media but she feigned absolute outrage and it turned into like this huge beat up of myself and gb news where i was presenting the number one show in prime time at the time now what the issue was is that i was accused of not sort of taking down Lawrence enough do you know what i mean so so so the view was that i should have stepped in and said Lawrence you're completely disgusting for saying that apologize now you know that's what the broadcasting regulator in the UK called the off-communist who sort of control free speech on tv in the UK but i called off combo i called in the off-communist um that's what they think i should have done now actually what i did is i stopped Lawrence look through my ipad to try and provide some balance because someone in my air had said i should try and provide some balance so i read out Ava's tweet which responded to this controversy and then i said but Lawrence she's a very beautiful woman so i thought i was doing the right thing right i mean as we've discussed i'm a gay man most of my best friends are women i'm like the least misogynistic bloke in the world i don't you know i absolutely love women um but off-com said that i had actually made it worse by describing her as beautiful so basically Lawrence is getting in trouble for saying that he didn't want to shag her i'm getting in trouble for saying that she's beautiful and we both effectively lost our jobs i mean he was suspended then sacked i was suspended for months and months on air as this huge investigation went on the whole thing was a chronic overreaction i mean Megan Callie who she appeared on my show each week as well so she was waiting in the wings on zoom watching all of this whole thing she couldn't believe it turned into what it turned into and she said i'm the first broadcaster in the world who was who was canceled for not being offended enough by something and i thought about that i'm like oh my goodness you're right and what i never wanted to do James is be that person who just played devil's advocate for the sake of it that i hate that i didn't want to do that i didn't i wanted viewers to know that i would be genuine so like i wasn't offended by what Lawrence said right i wasn't offended by it so i wasn't going to speak out against it for the sake of it then anyway turned into this massive scandal everyone's talking about it's leading the BBC so i'm told and this is probably what ended up finishing me off i was told you've got to apologize and again Megan who went through a very similar thing in America where she had to apologize for something she said as well described it as the hostage video apology so i basically issued this statement that wasn't written by me you know it's what your so in this situation you know the crisis managers come in and they say post this this will save your job you've got to do this and at that point i'd been through a lot because there'd been all of these false allegations made against me i was not in a good place mentally right at all i probably should have just taken a bit of time off but i didn't i pressed on i went on and i did my show every night and so i issued this apology on x and Lawrence who i'd actually spoken to that morning i thought he was cool with it but he hadn't seen the apology so he reads the apology thinks i'm throwing him under the bus so he then throws me under the bus by posting a private message exchange that we had had direct message exchange that we had had on x which made it look as if i was laughing about the whole thing to be honest i wasn't i was talking to him about a previous segment of the show it was just a stupid look you know like i was on air Lawrence had sent me a funny message i sent him a quick message but it made me look really bad so then i was suspended and look Lawrence and i are fine but i did think that was a terrible terrible thing to do i mean as i said i've told you during this interview i would go to jail to protect one of my sources like if you were to ever come to me to reveal something or be the source of a story that would go to my grave with me that you were the source of that story no matter what happened down the track so the idea that i would ever post someone's messages to me publicly to try and damage them no i just wouldn't do that and you know for Lawrence it's cost him a lot of friends actually and a lot of trust so Lawrence and i are still friends but there's a lot of people who really liked Lawrence and had defended him a lot who thought that was a step too far but fundamentally i don't actually think it was this incident which is why it became such a big thing it's because there had been this witch hunt against me going on for the eight weeks or 12 weeks prior to that and all of the mainstream media were looking for a way to get rid of me effectively because just before all that happened as well everybody knows with the harry and megan thing you're very outspoken you broke the story of them leaving yes how did you get that story because that was world headlines yeah one of the biggest cup celebrity well celebrities whatever you want to call them but one of the most known couples on the planet and americans love the royalties they love megan and harry as far as i know but how did you how did you get that information so basically i had been working i'd basically been breaking stories about megan and harry since a few months after they got married because you know became the biggest story in the world but what was frustrating me is that all of this stuff was going on behind the scenes so there's huge fallout between harry and megan and the rest of the royal family including the late queen by the way and no one was writing about it because there's this weird system in the uk called the royal rotor where the royal reporters are like officially sanctioned to cover the royal family and i actually described the more like stenographers or like prs for the royal family they don't really want to rock the boat because the other people who you know with um i don't know king charles goes to a trip to india the royal rotor they're all on the plane they go to all the events with him they see him every day so they don't really want to go against the narrative right and i'm a journalist that believes in exposing the truth especially if the truth isn't being told so i believed it was a story actually of constitutional significance and it turned out to be that way given they left the family in such dramatic circumstances or left the firm in such dramatic circumstances but actually the first story that i broke became quite famous it was known as tiara gate and it was basically about the fact that the late queen and megan had had a big row over what tiara she was going to wear at the wedding now there's been much said about this at the time but since the time sorry and megan and harry have put their version of events and you know there's disagreement about the exact details but the fundamentals of the story were true right which is that the late queen really didn't like megan and the way she was acting and had told harry off about the way that she was acting and within that story i also revealed that kate or catherine the princess of wales had had a fallout with megan so this was the start it was the first time it was the first time any mainstream media outlet in the world had reported on any issues between megan and the royal family of course we know things were actually a lot worse than that you know prince william and harry were physically going at each other against indian palace you know it was bad but it's really hard to be the first because it was all denied you know everyone said it was untrue no no no they all get on great what are you talking about oh this is just this you know tabloid hack dan wooden making stuff up again but i knew it was true right so i kept working on the story and i broke lots of stories over the months and months and actually people started realizing that i was the person with the ball to break the true stories so i got more contacts more royal contacts as i went on and it culminated in megsett and i was actually on holiday in new zealand it was just after christmas 2019 and i got a text message saying you're not going to believe it um they're leaving for good and i worked on the story for about 10 days while i was on holiday in new zealand it was nerve-wracking because they and harry has actually since revealed this in his book where he described me as the sad little man and you know i'm not little that's mad that he's put you in his book though well yeah because because i mean he really dislikes me but um can you understand why though i actually can't because i was not none of this was about me disliking harry or megan right i dislike them now but none of my reporting was about disliking them it was just the truth it's like he's admitted all of these things happened in his book do you see what i mean it's like he did fall out with everyone he did fall out with william they did want to leave the royal family so i don't really understand it to be honest because the other thing is that i was talking to all of his team as well who were briefing me and giving me information um i didn't want to destroy them or anything like that that was that was not my goal it's just this was a big story i mean i'm you know fifth in line to the throne the son of the queen sorry the son of the uh now king quitting the royal family i mean it's a huge story totally legitimate completely in the public interest and they wanted to scupper me breaking the story so they wanted to announce it themselves but luckily i beat them to it and it obviously became known as meg said and then all hell broke loose because of course we had the opera interview the claims that megan was suicidal and the royal family didn't help her which is just i mean it's bullshit it's just bullshit it's just not true and the problem is that compulsive liars about both of them see i love the idea because of princess diana like i actually loved her i didn't know her but i seen the way she operated the move she seemed like a kind hearty person i don't know her but i always wanted the idea he was i seen his mum and him i seen okay he's trying to protect his misses and i could understand that but then he says they want peace but then i started questioning what wait a minute you've done a netflix documentary you've written a book because he always seemed a good kid when you see his mum and stuff like it must have been hard for the questions obviously they'll know the answers what happened to their mum and people can go down the conspiracy and question marks everywhere and it's understandable the way it happened but well of course it is i mean diana wrote a letter saying she was going to be killed in a car accident i mean look i'm not saying that we should not be asking questions about the death of his mother but the problem is that he sees everything through that prism so he sees himself as a victim now look the way that he lost his mother was terrible right but he is one of the most privileged men in the world james i mean come on he has wealth and opportunities that we or anyone listening to this could only dream of so he went through a terrible thing but he had an opportunity to do whatever he wanted to do real good and for example with the Invictus games it's very difficult to criticize that isn't it i mean what a great initiative you know something for injured service people to give them hope that's the point of the royal family and instead what he did is allow himself to be captured by this woman megan who's not a nice character you know who's a very fame hungry and you know because remember i've done lots of reporting on megan and what she was like before she was in the royal family and you know she was trying to like i mean she was just desperate to date a british guy like she tried to date ashley coal uh the footballer ex of sheryl tried to date matt cardell the guy who won the x factor tried to date max george who was a member of the wanted she just wanted a famous british guy that's for whatever reason she'd broken up with her husband she wanted that i mean she hit the jackpot prince harry i mean come on and she never wanted it to work within the royal family that was that was too hard for her so they they concocted this narrative of like racism and it's just not true it's not true they were given so much support so i thought the story was really legitimate and yes now i am i guess on the side of the royal family that comes to this but i still think the royal family deserves scrutiny too and as a reporter i've broken lots of stories about william and kathryn and prince andrew which is obviously a big scandal too so i think the harry and meghan thing was completely legitimate public interest journalism and i think the public had a right to know and i'm proud that i did it because no other journalist was telling the truth about what went on it takes guts but like i say i like the fact of his mother try to protect the family but then i did see the netflix documenting it does raise question marks she is an actress again i don't know but something does it do you think he's on on your go on your go on i was just gonna say diana because i love diana right growing up my young closeted gay guy she was like the ultimate i thought i think she i honestly think diana is princess diana the most incredible celebrity of my lifetime she's like a true icon like if you look back the last hundred years who do we have jfk martin luther king jr mariland munro and princess diana i honestly think she's at that level of celebrity and she did so much good as she changed the royal family forever do you honestly think princess diana would want her youngest son literally going to war with prince william her elder son who she adored and she knew was going to find it so hard to become the king she would be disgusted with what harry had done on that front and harry attacked kathryn in the book and camilla it's like surely there's like there's got to be like because the problem is how can charles and william ever forgive him because they are trying to protect camilla and kathryn so he says he's trying to protect megan right okay fine but then harry is turning on their wives do you see what i mean it's it's nasty when did it all start turning is that a case of him being naive how manipulate the situation and being an actors or is he get apart to play in it because it may be things that happen to mama what's the whole and he was vulnerable wasn't he i mean he was clearly a vulnerable guy sort of flapping around in life not knowing which direction he was going to go in and i think megan massively took advantage of that but at the end of the day james look i know everyone has their own family issues but to me family is everything family is blood you know i stick by my family through everything they stick by me through everything and if you have an issue you deal with it privately so for him to publicly attack his father his brother his mother-in-law his sister-in-law in the most brutal manner well they're not going to forgive him for that now once you've done that you can't take it back do you see what i mean because he's saying reassurance was involved yeah and then saying oh no we didn't say that it's like no no no you literally did you literally said that there was a royal racist who commented on the color of unborn archie's skin which by the way i mean like my sister is um in a relationship with her baby daddy samon right so that's pacific island country different skin tone like you are interested you're just interested about what babies are gonna look like it's so not racist and actually here's the thing william and kate are really modern couple they're a really modern couple i mean actually they're quite woke on a lot of issues the idea that they are racist is ludicrous and what about charles and the queen like their absolute passion has been strengthening the commonwealth you know the the the the late queen i'm not talking about camilla talking about queen Elizabeth the second her absolute passion was the commonwealth right when you look at the commonwealth what are the most deprived areas of the commonwealth africa parts of the caribbean india it's just ludicrous to suggest the royal family is racist now the royal family is white yes that actress from bridgeton described it as terribly white or horribly white whatever on the day of the coronation no it's just white they're a white family we are a majority white country i think 85 white here in scotland it's about 95 percent white you know that does not make them racist they are not racist but the royal family it seems to be wouldn't say fizzling but it seems to be messy they know with the hardest situation kathryn as you you say but it doesn't seem to look good for the royal family trying to say kathryn people get people tell me off for this james because i naturally call her kate because that's what we knew her as but people say now you should be respectful which is the future queen she wants to be called kathryn so i'm trying but i've got to be respectful but again things it seems to be a mess and it's never the royal family always seem to have things under control it doesn't seem so now especially with books and netflix documentaries that how who's giving that the green light i mean i always thought the royal family had the most powerful family in the world i wonder the most powerful family obviously you've got families that people will never hear about but why is it these stuff been given a green light and it makes it look weak it's been oh god what it's been the worst 18 months hasn't it for the royal family but the thing is james the late queen was probably i would argue this is at least my personal opinion i'd say she's the greatest ever monarch certainly the greatest ever monarch in modern times i mean i could not have imagined a world without the queen and so it was always going to be really difficult right the queen dying because you lose that connection to history there were very few people who remembered life before the late queen and on the whole in this country in the uk and around the world you know on the whole people like the monarchy i'm a big royalist doesn't mean that i don't think they should be scrutinized but i'm a big royalist so that was always going to be hard then you have massive scandal with prince andrew you have massive scandal with harry and megan so lots is riding on charles and william charles gets cancer badly he's he's waited his whole life for this but he's in his late 70s he's aged overnight i mean that's pretty heartbreaking because all of a sudden his reign is completely derailed and we don't know where that's going to go we hope that he can recover but we don't know where it's going to go and then of course that heaps the pressure on william who has to deal with all of the issues that kate is going through medically and william's thing and remember i've covered william very very closely over many years and some people judge him for this but i think most people won't is he puts his family first and he's always said that he will put his family even before the crown now who didn't do that the late queen and charles they put the crown before their family to at to what cost will william knows the cost so william knows for example that after diana died charles just wasn't around much he wasn't there to see him and harry after school or you know he was working all the time they didn't have that close relationship and and charles did not have a close relationship with the late queen because i mean she went on royal tours for months on end when the kids were young so william wanted to do things differently he wanted to be a modern dad so for him that meant that he was with the kids before they went to school and he's with the kids after school most days which actually only provides quite a small window where he's fully working as the prince of wales that's controversial in in some quarters but he would say no his most important job is to be a dad he's obviously raising the future king prince george but all of a sudden you've got charles off the scene andrew can't work harry and meghan are causing trouble in america kate's got her own health issue so she's not appearing in public for three months and william is starting to pull out of public engagements that's a pr disaster yeah because the air didn't have the foals that way is that such a big thing that's such a big thing because the whole world wanted to know that kate was okay because those rumors that apparently she wasn't she wasn't she wasn't even alive yeah which is obviously where this outcome from totally ridiculous but but again where this comes from now and it's what we were talking about before you can't control the internet so so if you just leave a big vacuum right conspiracy theories are going to thrive now by the way i'm not someone who a lot of conspiracy theories end up being true so i'm not someone who ought to i mean look at covid virtually every conspiracy theory about covid became true this one's a bit different though because you're actually dealing with a vulnerable woman who's a good person right i don't think many people think kate is not a good person who puts her country in her family first she's asked for this time james she's going through difficult health issues the problem with the photo is that it actually added to all of the rumors or the conspiracy theories however you want to put it maybe i'll put it call them rumors it added to them rather than taking them away because lots of people do not believe that that photo was taken at the time that they say that it was taken so i really stole his foals who and that you can tell those fingers missing there was just just look weird why was that on purpose to create more attention so why would somebody not prefer that with a magnifying glass it was like amateur hour and this is what people don't realize right so so i'd reckon most people assume that the royal family have like an army of hundreds or thousands of staff working on these sorts of things now they do have hundreds and thousands of staff who work at like the palaces and do the crowds and all of that but actually they have a tiny team like compared to politicians they have a tiny team like literally a handful of people who work on their PR and their communication strategy well this made them look like rank amateurs it was embarrassing and sometimes the job of a courtier is to say no sorry future king you know you can't release that that's ridiculous it looks photoshopped everyone's just gonna well it was photoshopped you know katharine's now admitted it was photoshopped but i think what the problem is is sometimes there's almost too much respect and deference to members of the royal family because you know like with a celebrity an agent or a PR sure they can be sacked so they do often bow down to the celebrity but they're on the same level to a degree whereas the problem is if you're working for a member of the royal family you know you have to call them sir and mom or her majesty and i don't think that always works you know i sometimes think they need real people around them and william and kate used to have that they used to have a really good team and i've lost that team and i think it it showed yeah because as a big debate people support harry and megan people support katharine and william so there is a mass divide the young people i think support harry and megan but mouse even in america now even americans don't like harry and megan anymore how much pressure are on these women's heads though like obviously harry and william know they've been brought up in that life no doubt they'll still be that's hard to really explain to have that level of fame and people like mullians that mullians hit the streets when it's a wedding or a funeral that they've got so much support all around the world people are devastated when a family member dies and but how much pressure are actually on these women's head even megan doesn't matter what people say that the pressure of not having a life anymore like how does it must affect them yeah although my take on this is maybe going to be surprising because i actually think it's harry and william who are most uncomfortable with their roles i think they have ended up with two wives who in very different ways right actually really want to do these jobs so kate knew exactly what she was getting into she was with william fiers you know they even broke up at one point because william he really wanted to almost like pressure test her like are you really ready for this because he saw what his mum went through he didn't want her to go through the same thing and megan look i mean that's a woman who wants to be famous more than anything i mean more than anything she has literally chucked every single person in her life under the bus other than her mum right so i know her dad really well i know her sister really well i think they are a really good honest american family but she was embarrassed by them you know she was embarrassed by them they were too working class they were too normal for megan she didn't want them to be part of it so she just flicked them got rid of them embarrassed so for me i would actually say it is william and harry who struggle most with the limelight and their wives in different ways carry them through it william was a very reluctant king he's taken more to his role now and harry just has so many issues he can't cope with the fact that he's the spare not the air he can't cope with what happened to his mum so it's yeah it's really like i think they struggle with it more honestly i do i think kate and megan thank god in a way that they are keen for the limelight in a way i'd say megan's a lot more keen for it than them because there's so much stuff like you see with william and harry and the women king charles being with cancer but then prince andrew stuff that why was that interview allowed that made him look bad well again amateur hour again right who kept thinking late for that i spoke to someone who worked with the royal family and he says he actually thinks he's smarter than what it is where he can speak out and talk his way out of the situation but it it just made couldn't he couldn't yeah why who kept thinking like that he actually had this court here who had been working for him forever this woman called amanda and she thought this was going to be a great idea i mean that is the worst interview in history now again this might surprise you i don't sign up anymore to a lot of the narrative around prince andrew i was very negative about him for a long time that interview was a disaster right a total disaster but i've looked into things much more there's nothing to do with my own experience it was well before i had my own experience i've spoken to a number of his close friends number of people who have really done huge research into what happened with andrew and epstein and his accusers especially virginia du fray and there is a growing sense that andrew was set up and that while he may have been unwise to ever have a relationship with epstein i mean what was he thinking i mean this guy's a pedophile what was he thinking that's unquestionable right but when it comes to the claims of du fray for example they just don't stack up they do not stack up and it seems like very much um she was driven by money but the problem is while all of the royal family believe him so so you know like um the late queen and king charles and even william they actually support andrew privately they believe him publicly after that interview it became just impossible to imagine him coming back into the royal family and i mean what a disaster they actually need him at the moment but it's impossible yeah how can he come back because like you see just maybe he was just that party guy he loved the party naive stupid again stupid guy it's the fact that epstein was a known pedophile he was charred he was convicted from a maths teacher to this mysterious billionaire to then own an epstein island one of the biggest pedophile rings where the flight logs have never been really out there in the open but but but why are they only talking about prince andrew though this is my point why are they not talking about bill clinton and bill gates who are on that island far far more than prince andrew ever was steven hotkin fucking old pervert he was and he was an other now he used to go to struck joints everything is it's nuts to think that he's in the list is long by the way and listen same as when you look at the jimmy savo stuff the celebrity's got photos with jimmy savo doesn't mean they're pedophiles either the guy was a high profile name you're just probably happy to get a photo with someone same as epstein island maybe people's went there once yes and realized wait a minute they're saying right but if you're getting back multiple times like the clinton's like all the high profile names something's not right no exactly and there should be equity and fairness around it and remember there's a growing feeling especially in america that the radical left in america found it much much easier to pin it all on prince andrew and gelane maxwell both brits rather than having to target the likes of clinton and gates now of course i believe everyone should be subject to due process but i mean come on do we really think that epstein committed suicide when he was meant to be on 24 hour watch and a isolation unit where it was impossible to commit suicide i mean there is a lot more to that story than meets the eye so i think andrew to an extent and don't get me wrong and i don't want this to be taken out of context i'm not defending him he's made huge errors of judgment but i think to some extent he was he was the easy target put it that way he was the easy target yeah because later says it's in the meeting of the epstein it's that that interview i don't think there's ever been evidence on being with kids i think it's been the video about not sweating and there was that pizza express it just i mean that makes them look stupid that was ludicrous and people are going to then think yeah what you're covering up yeah but virginia due fray has changed her story remember mold was one of the four was edited that four was well lady victoria harvey who's a good friend of mine um really good person actually should be great great to come on here i think i actually spoke to her a couple years ago you should she's fascinating i'll i'll i'll i'll tell her she should do it because i mean she is convinced you know she would bet her life on the fact that that photo is edited she's an ex of prince andrew she's still friends with him does she have skin in the game yes but as i say i've done a lot of my own research into this and it's not as straightforward there's a lot of murky dealings involving due fray some of the other accusers remember they've become very very rich as a result of this and who did they know was the person who they could most easily damage will prince andrew and one thing i do know for a fact by the way is the reason that prince andrew settled with virginia due fray because do you remember there was that payout and the only reason he did that is because otherwise the court case was going to overshadow the platinum dive did the sorry the platinum jubilee of the queen it was timed at this at around the same time and and the queen she was dying at that point and they all knew she was dying of blood cancer so for andrew to have pressed ahead with that you know everyone in the family was just saying settle settle settle do this for your mother do you see what it means so the apstein thing as well did you think apstein had something over him well he definitely had something over him but but andrew chose to go to new york to stay at his apartment knowing that he was a convicted pedophile that's wrong just to paint a little bit of context to it though loads of high-profile people were going around to epstein's house he was he was still the toast of new york society at that point and not all men by the way i mean katie kurrick who was one of the top you know mainstream media journalists in the us i've interviewed her for my podcast before you know host the today's show i'm not involved at all in anything sexual was at the dinner party with prince andrew so it wasn't all to do with sex if you if you see what i mean but look why did he go to that meeting he claimed in the car crash news night interview that he just sort of stood by his friends but it was an odd one so did he have something over andrew possibly did glane possibly but of course she hasn't turned on andrew even now so maybe there was nothing to turn on him over and as i say i know look there's a lot of people who i respect hugely who are absolutely convinced that prince andrew is totally innocent of any crime might be guilty of making some pr errors and doing a terrible interview but personally i think there is more to come on the epstein story both in terms of andrew and glane but also what else was covered up what about the jimmy savill stuff why was that covered up by the bbc and how ruthless was he i know people you see he just looks like a fucking creepy bastard if i'm honest again people might argue he never had any convictions but why was there such a massive cover-up with him and why we see it why we see a loud and i think johnny rotton exposed them many many years ago but yeah how that was jimmy savill oh i mean the darkest and i think it's the most shameful error of the bbc but unfortunately the bbc has a big habit of this you know so it's meant to be the public broadcaster in the uk but they contributed to the death of princess diana with that terrible martin basher interview i mean i'm not saying the interview itself was terrible but the circumstances of how he procured the interview um was all about bribing effectively princess diana with lies oh sorry not bribing her convincing her to do the interview based on lies bribing would be the wrong word because i guess she did make the decision to do it but she made the decision to do it based on false information that he had presented to her you've got and that was covered up for two decades and then you've got the biggest cover-up of them all which is the country's most prolific pedophile operating behind the scenes at your broadcaster and he dies and then you cover it up again and don't allow your own journalists to tell the story of it so i think the bbc is a very corrupt organization actually i really really do and personally i think it should be defunded um again that's not a common view people always say oh but it's done so much good for britain no it hasn't you know it's responsible for some of the biggest scandals in british history uh obviously there was also um allister cambell and you know the dodgy dossier and and all of that and i don't i don't think it does any good for britain actually for example over the covid pandemic it was responsible for spreading fear propaganda on a daily basis it's the home of fake news uh yeah and so i think look you look at those all i'm saying you look at those scandals several being the main one but no private organization would survive that just wouldn't survive it just like news of the world didn't survive the phone hacking scandal yet the bbc we're still forced to pay this nearly 200 pounds a year for something that we don't want to watch just because we want to watch another tv channel i i think it's absolutely outrageous and i think the bbc is a corrupt organization um that's bad for britain but again i know that maybe some people think that's an extreme view but i i don't believe it is it certainly doesn't represent so i i think of my viewers at gb news the bbc did not represent them it would attack them as being far right and racist and no you can care about protecting the borders of your country without being far right and racist so back to your own stuff so you've you've had laurence fox you're suspended and then your accusations the dark stuff the was it people saying that you were sent asking for photos you were catfishing and then other accusations that winded is that because everything came out about you and then other people jumped on it or were these accusations on the pipeline no so basically the accusations were all funneled and i would argue created by one media organization a hard left blog i'll name them if you want but i'm also more than happy not to because part of me thinks they want the publicity do you know i mean they went on the switch hunt to gain this publicity and this is an organization literally staffed by phone hackers so it's quite a bizarre thing and they were determined to destroy my rep is reputation and bring me down now the background to this is that in may 2023 my show on gb news which ran from 9 p.m to 11 p.m in prime time overtook Nigel Farage good friend of mine but it overtook him as the number one show on the channel so we were making real progress right gb news had like it's sort of like had started off as a bit of a laughing stock it's like the worst launch on british tv like you know none of the technology worked and it was it was hard going and then people tried to say oh you're the fox news of the uk which personally i actually never found offensive i think fox news is brilliant but gb news became a big success story and so they wanted to bring the people down who were making it a big success story and this organization is on the hard left right an activist organization they don't believe in reporting the truth but what they did with me which was so disturbing and made it so difficult to ever properly defend is they before they reported the story they went to the metropolitan police with all of these false allegations against me in order for them to launch an investigation into me so that once they reported the story my hands were completely tied because i knew that the police were looking into their allegations and it was all smoke and there was no fire let me tell you because believe me james if there had been any evidence of this the police would have handed it to the cps the police did not even pass this case on not only was there no evidence right i was able to present corroborative counter evidence proving that i had been set up and that these claims were complete lies so i've mentioned briefly earlier in the show one of the people was a convicted extortionist another person was a convicted violent criminal who had just been released from prison and i have recordings of him trying to extort me out of a hundred thousand pounds in order to stop him going to the police and the other was an ex-boyfriend with a massive axe to grind who had been trying to destroy me for five years and so what my issue is is that the process is now the punishment right because i always knew that these were lies and i said right from the start this is a witch hunt these are dark forces but the problem is it didn't matter because the damage to my reputation was done because as soon as the mainstream media report the metropolitan police have launched an investigation into accusations of sexual offenses well you're done you are done how bad does that sound right now i have since been completely exonerated in two separate police investigations so one was by the metropolitan police one was by the scottish police they never even handed the information on to the cps so that happened and then i've also received two apologies from the two biggest newspaper two biggest left-wing newspapers in the uk the guardian and the daily mirror and they've paid me significant damages right but the original organization that pursued all of these lies with these false accusers they are never going to stop they are never going to stop until i am destroyed what they did was not journalism and you know i've admitted that some of my journalism maybe i might not agree with it all looking back johnny depp for example but never have i tried to destroy someone never have i gone to the police with false information from criminals to try and bring down one of my enemies and honestly some of the things they did were just so sick over that period like they um called the police to say that they thought i was going to kill myself so the police did a welfare check because they wanted to be able to say if i ever did anything to myself that oh they were caring about my welfare like it was just you know over that time i was hacked multiple times like my tv's were hacked into my emails were hacked into all of my accounts were hacked into like these were dark and dirty people and it was grim it was really grim but but my big issue was that the process is the punishment because the problem is you know we haven't spoken about them but i was the number one columnist for the Daily Mail right around the world so i was the most read columnist you know Daily Mail website absolutely massive all around the world and they suspended me the moment the allegations dropped i wasn't even allowed to defend myself no process whatsoever just dropped and i was listening to your interview with no clark and i found it so powerful because he went through the exact same thing that i did really the accusations were made by people who were actuated by malice and who were purposefully trying to destroy my career and actually very much like noal too who always viewed himself as an outsider right in the action industry i was always a bit of an outsider in the world of journalism so no one was really there for me no one really stood up for me no one really had had my back how do i make you feel i mean it was the worst it was the absolute worst time of my life because i knew what was being said was untrue but i also knew this has become such a big story this will stick with me now for the rest of my life and the problem is when you become a political political sort of figure and by that point i was because you know gbnews was a very political organization i was considered on the right in this country you know that makes you a big target and i was i was constantly criticizing and pointing out hypotheses right by the msm and left-wing politicians so i was a real target and i just knew and this was the worst feeling it's like i know i'm going to be cleared but this is going to be with me now for the rest of my life like because people just want to believe it and people didn't even really know what they would believe do you know i mean the allegations were so bizarre and so vague and there was no evidence of anything but i honestly believe and by the way i'm never someone like this whole interview when i've been talking about my career and stuff i've never once ever said homophobia right i'm not i i don't like doing that i don't like to make myself a victim because i'm not a victim right i have succeeded against the odds by not being a victim so i've never viewed myself as a victim and i don't but there was a huge amount of homophobia around this because look i get it people are quite grossed out by gay sex who wants who you know no one really wants to read about what i was doing as a 25-year-old guy in the showbiz industry do you know what i mean i'm now a 40-year-old man in a four-year monogamous relationship right who gives a damn what i was doing when i was 25 years old and a very unhealthy toxic relationship as long as i was not breaking the law i mean who cares really but i know what they were doing right they wanted to throw so much mud at me that just some of it stuck and i believe this organization was really motivated by a relationship that they had with Prince Harry because this phone hacker had been giving evidence to support Prince Harry in his court case against the daily mirror so when i say there were dark forces it's not that i'm being paranoid it's that i know those dark forces exist right Prince Harry wants to bring down his biggest enemies in the British media well who are the two most high-profile myself and Piers Morgan and you know he's moving on to Piers Morgan now you know they're trying to get the metropolitan police and i know Piers Morgan is a controversial guy right personally i really like him but not everyone does and that's fine he's like me he's like my people love and more hate him he's always been good to me and i like Piers but Prince Harry is lobbying to get the metropolitan police to reopen investigation about Piers Morgan and phone hacking right from like 20 years ago it's like seriously mate go out in London people are getting mugged every day people are being stabbed like you honestly think that's what the police should be investigating there's already been an investigation and he was found innocent or do you know what i mean nothing with no charges were pressed and you know the worst thing that happens now loads of people on the left are still saying oh no well he wasn't cleared by he wasn't cleared by the police they they just didn't find enough evidence so it's like okay so there's no way for me to clear my name now there's no way for me to do it is there like you're just gonna believe it and i don't really particularly want to put the evidence out there in public because it's embarrassing and it's personal you know um how's your partner handle that because it doesn't matter if you trust someone there's no raises alarm bills yeah it's been hell for him it's been absolute hell for him and you know he is the greatest person in the world in my view because he has stood by me through all of this and you know the thing about Alan he's an incredibly loyal person he's such a better person than me you know so i'm so lucky to have him but i have strived to work on myself do you know what i mean over the past 10 years like if you come out of an abusive and toxic relationship it really damages you right and my last relationship was so toxic and so abusive i genuinely didn't think i was ever going to be able to love again i mean look at what this guy has done to me i mean this is a bad human right you can admit no matter what went on if you are still 11 years after you broke up spending your entire life trying to destroy your ex-partner's life like you're a bad person i would say um so i took a i worked on myself do you know i don't talk about this because i don't really feel the need but i was in deep therapy for example for years and years and years because i knew i had to get over this terrible relationship which damaged me so significantly and it was only after those years of therapy that i ended up being able to get into this relationship with Alan because i could trust him and i could love again and i could feel like i could be loyal and um that i wasn't going to be cheated on and did you know what i mean all of those sorts of things and i was just getting through that you know Alan and i had been together for three years and it was like my life had turned around and that's when the ex decided to launch this campaign on on twitter and i guess he achieved what he wanted that's the terrible thing like i know he'll be watching this he watches everything it's like a stalker i just wish he'd leave me alone you know um contacts everyone in my life and i the problem is i don't even like talking about it because i know this will now just encourage him to spread more lies and the problem is what he can say whatever he wants and people are going to believe it because there are people who want to believe that i am a terrible person but at the end of the day this organization and the ex all of their claims were based on me breaking the law right but they're working together yeah yeah who do you think is behind do you think Prince Harry's behind it all or is it just a i don't it's a possibility that just everything's happened at once so i don't think he's behind anything to do with the ex that was a completely different thing and that seems about yeah yeah i think the ex has just jumped on something yeah that's came out about you well it's more that basically the ex had been trying to sell this story or put the story around about me for like five years and no mainstream media organization would touch it right because there's no evidence so he'd been to every newspaper every broadcaster none of them would touch because what he's saying is not true and if you're a journalist you've got to prove truth like surely there would be an email or there would be some evidence or you know there's nothing he has nothing and but but it was this organization who ended up publishing it is the organization that is working with Prince Harry so they have a motivation to run these lies about me in a way that other media organizations would not do but the thing that's so disturbing for me is what this means for other people because i know that the police can now be weaponized in this country there's a two-tier justice system right so for example if you make a complaint about an mp or a high profile tv presenter or a top podcast or a big celebrity the police are going to take these allegations far far more seriously than if you were making the allegation against a member of the public who didn't have a profile and that's because the police have been so burned by stories like Jimmy Savile right but the problem is there has to be some sort of happy medium here because i can tell you in my case this was literally just a smear campaign and it was a smear campaign based on sex right but there was absolutely nothing illegal absolutely nothing legal and no evidence of anything illegal and as i say i it's such a tough one in this because i would love to just be able to tell you like and i would sit down with anyone privately and literally show you emails show you videos like i've got it all but i hate talking about it because what it does is it reinforces the false allegations that were made and that's something we used to talk about on gb news actually because for example with kevin spacey he was cleared but then you'd watch the news report and it would say he was cleared of molesting or you know i'm not going to say what it was because i'm then doing the same thing but you just so even being cleared you're reinforcing what the negative stories are which people then believe do you see what i mean so this was all about a a smear campaign and it worked it worked because for whatever reason like you can say oh well maybe it was laurence fox thing but i think really the reason i lost my two massive because you know i was a success professionally you know which is ironic because that's what i've been wanting to achieve but and it still didn't protect me but i was a success professionally i had the top rated show on gb news and i had the number one most red column on the mail website so and it still didn't protect me so the smear campaign worked um weirdly there's something quite freeing about all of this though too because i mean i look at what you're doing for example and it's an inspiration to me i guess looking at the media tucker carlson megan kelly you know there's in the uk space there are not that many people going independent in the news space and this is where things are heading but the bigger thing is is i just don't want to be able to be cancelled again on lies and i think the only way i can do that is not to be reliant on money from billionaires or big corporates because they're so nervous now like you know people get sacked because you know 50 tweets get sent about something for example do you see what i like people just they overreact same as look at um who's a little comedian he was supposed to i was supposed to host the oscars but he done that tweet look 15 years ago oh yeah and already apologized for and he says i wasn't apologizing again i think apologies as well people need to stop saying sorry as much well i know because as soon as you say sorry you're admitting something where we're loving in a fragile world bottom line is people can be who they want to be say what they want to say how was it in gba news never had you buy apparently a free speech platform yeah i mean it was gutting and i have to say you're so right so probably my two biggest mistakes during all of this were my two apologies right because the apology over laurence fox completely modified i didn't mean it right i didn't mean it i said it to try and save my job and it didn't so i was wrong i shouldn't have said something that i didn't believe which is why i didn't apologize on the show and then the other thing that i'd had to do and again this is what gba news had wanted me to do so i'd done it because you know i wanted to keep my job and i didn't want to keep my job by the way and i'll be really clear on this because of money wasn't anything to do with that i was desperate to keep my job because i had created this amazing community who were watching my show every night we were like a little family we'd become the number one show i knew we were going to start making a difference and that's why they wanted to take me down you see i'd given a voice to lots of people who had never had a voice in the mainstream media before so i really believed in what i was doing on gba news do you see what i mean it wasn't about i just don't want to lose my job it was because i put everything in to creating this platform and turning it into a success so so that was that but then gba news had said oh well you need to because there's all of these claims out there about you you need to go on and express like some contrition and be humble and you know and sort of admit that you've been wrong on things in the past and say again i was in such honestly it's when you're in a situation like that and again i was listening to what noel said to you you're not thinking straight you're in total crisis mode you you can barely put one foot in front of the other so i was like okay that's what they want me to do so i went on air and i did a monologue basically saying of course i've done things in my past that i regret who hasn't do you really want to cancel me for these things 15 years later but i spoke to Douglas Murray later he's a brilliant um brilliant columnist you know really great guy and he said you should never have done that because it looked as if you were saying that you've done something wrong and actually your private life is your private life your sex life in the past is is your sex life so it was again probably a mistake because what it did is it made it look as if well there must be something to these allegations and actually there was a fundamental question here had i broken the law and no i had not and so anything else really why why is it of any relevance 15 years on that's the power that i've been backed into a corner people try and speak their way and it just raised more questions bottom line is if you're a private life nobody needs to fucking know what other happens i like you say if you've broke the law of course law needs to be it's there then justice needs to be served and people need to go to court well it's a fair trial and then things can go out though yes stuff wasn't even you weren't even charged and then february come you get the old clear how is that feeling for you yeah i mean one of the best one of the best are you still nervous though because the mind can play tracks and you think i'm going to get fucked i'm going to get charged i might go to prison i've lost everything anyway i'm going to lose my partner i mean you have nothing seriously james i was like look the problem for me is i don't trust the establishment in this country i do not trust them i think they were out to get me and i do not trust the metropolitan police so look some people will say yeah but they they didn't charge you they didn't pass it on to the cps so so you should have trusted them because they made the right decision but james they should never have even investigated there was nothing to investigate and you know the worst thing that they did after the laurence fox story was the number one story in the country they released a statement saying that they were investigating me now that's actually against the law there's a supreme court case versus bloomberg the business outlet and an unnamed man who was a big business guy who took bloomberg to the supreme court to say he had a right to privacy before he was charged and that was agreed to by the supreme court so why was the metropolitan police releasing a statement about me being investigated for something that laurence fox said on my show do you see what i mean and what it was and this is what happens honestly i know what it's like now when the whole establishment turns on you the mainstream media the police they are all coming for you and that the mail sacked me the same week so it was like i had you know the media were camped outside my house i couldn't leave my house couldn't even get to see my psychiatrist who was helping me through a really difficult time because i literally had the media outside you know everyone turned and so the problem is then i thought god maybe even though i know that i have the evidence and everything maybe maybe they're just out to get me like because they shouldn't even be investigating this they shouldn't have announced the decision so when i finally got through the process i was absolutely delighted but that's six months of my life you know six months of my life when i was silenced you know i try and contribute now to the news of this country and provide my viewers with the voice that they don't get in the mainstream media and for that whole time i was silenced and you know it was look it was the true definition of being cancelled i now know what it's like i mean i actually had a segment on my show every single night called uncanceled because i so believed in providing people an opportunity to come back and so obviously there was a real irony to me that gbnews then effectively did the same thing to me it was hard and also it was hard because i thought they owed me loyalty but i'm not bitter because i had an incredible time there and i really believed in the purpose of the station and still do but i also now believe that probably the only place that i can survive and thrive is in the independent media because the problem is at gbnews there was an advertising boycott right so they're constantly having to try and appeal to the woke advertising agencies so like when the whole thing with laurence fox happened apparently they lost one of their main advertisers so probably they were having to say to that advertiser oh don't worry none of them are coming back do you see what i mean it's very crowded yeah it is well tucker tucker spoke about that big farmer in america you know from the one of the channels so if they're they'll get they'll throw anybody under the bus to keep their sponsorships everything's to do with money being independent who the fuck do you bow down to no one you don't obviously want to see what you want to be this controversial guy who's causing shit to be controversial for the sake of it trying to be authentic and and honest as you can be like i say my platform is only for the guests to tell it from their side don't judge or don't challenge because it's their story yes there's three stories like three sides to the story like we spoke about but it is where it is so when you got clear how was that feeling was that an emotional day god yeah god yeah because the thing is honestly it's freedom right the like what do we all crave i've realized it's freedom and often that's why people i think are motivated by money because they believe that money equals freedom and to an extent you can understand that because if you can stop working or live overseas or go on holiday it's a degree of freedom but when i was caught in this horrible investigation sort of no man's land you have no freedom because you have no control over where your life's going and i never really want other people to have that control over me again really and i mean look the problem is though there's nothing to celebrate when you're cleared because you're financially devastated you're reputationally devastated and so the enemies win and that's why i think there has to be a higher bar to all of these things and with me there wasn't you know i'm sorry when you've got two career criminals and a fantasist making ludicrous claims without any evidence i would argue the whole thing was a total waste of police time and that makes me angry too and there were some really nice people actually within the police but on the whole i mean they operate in a sort of catastrophic way you know losing evidence all the time having to go back to the start it's like it's like all of our big institutions in this country are breaking down the police the nhs hmrc nothing's working properly and i'm like why are you wasting time investigating what is a political hit job this was a political hit job and nothing more so yeah it was incredible to have that sense of freedom back and don't get me wrong like all of a sudden you feel a little bit uncanceled you're like okay maybe there's some hope but you know the thing that's just been incredible is um my audience they literally stood by me so my colleagues didn't stand by me a lot of my friends didn't stand by me but my audience were absolutely rock solid resolute they never waive it and the thing is i think compared to most presenters i had a really personal connection with my audience because i built something from scratch i mean it must be like you i built something from scratch sure i didn't own it it was in the mainstream media but gb news didn't exist before i started you know i hosted the first ever show on gb news the first ever regularly scheduled show so i felt like we had a connection from the start and i would speak to my audience every night via like a club that we had on x i'd message them personally do you know what i mean it wasn't because i never took them for granted i i knew that i needed their support and they meant a lot to me and they never wavered through the whole thing they understood it was a witch hunt they trusted me they literally sent thousands and thousands of letters to gb news and then when i launched my new outspoken platform i mean i've been overwhelmed like so i'm hosting on substack as well as youtube and you know substack have said this is one of our fastest growing substacks ever in the uk so they got me through actually and what i just realized is that i don't want to be part of this msm anymore because none of those people were there for me none of them but that's puzzling now and no you need to get out your head as well nobody can be cancelled now especially with social media especially with instagram tiktok youtube rumbo whatever as you can't be cancelled yes you might need to start afresh again but it's starting from the bottom where you've already got your contacts you're not starting from 20 years ago especially with the contacts you've built up you're starting yes maybe a new platform but you're starting with the 20 years of knowledge yeah and understanding what you've got it so you can take it whatever you want to people watch gb news for you not because it's gb news because you built your own platform you'd built your own your audience like you said so you've got the nobody gets cancelled and i've spoke to people and i say listen you only cancel yourself because you become defeated in here yes it was fucked up when you get these charges and accusations or whatever people get and they get cleared yes it's hard to pull it back but it can't be pulled back because everybody's looking at your russell brands and whether it's andrew tapes kate hopkins tommy robson whatever people's opinion of these people are they're cancelled for a reason people get cancelled if they're if they're ruffled the feathers and a lot of people are back in the ones who are getting cancelled now no matter the accusations well i would argue all of the people who you've just mentioned are actually more powerful now than they ever have been and people would judge me for this but you know i've had communication with all of those people you know i had andrew on my show i know you've interviewed him numerous times i've interviewed everyone of them yeah and i think um i think andrew and his brother tristan are being subjected to a despicable witch hunt actually and again i know that's none of you that everyone will share but i've looked at the evidence and that is my personal view there's nothing for them and remain that looks of the uk are trying to reopen something from 2012 but that's what i mean there's there's the weaponization again so you know and this is the problem are you ever free or are the met police at some point i'm going to say something controversial again and then they reopen an investigation you know it's ludicrous but i'm very inspired by that but i'm also i think because for me i guess i'm more in the news space i still really believe in that that that i want my platform to be very reactive you know it's going to be about the day's news um but in an honest way and i'm what i'm really inspired by is seeing in america now um the folk who've left fox news are actually more influential in the independent space so like there's there's so many now there's like obviously megan tucker who are incredible but there's also he's got a boss of platform oh yeah he's i mean he's the ultimate isn't he but there's dan bonjino on rumble who is doing crazy numbers he was so supportive of me he said um gb news folded quicker than a cheap suit and he's like you were better out of it there's dav rubin there's billow riley there's glenn beck and i listened to all of them i love them and what i kept thinking is i'm like well there's no one in the uk who's doing this because there's people like you who are doing amazing and depth interviews there's people like russell who are doing incredible analysis but mainly of like american politics but there's no one who's taking the news of the day there's none and doing a show but when do you become a target like me i just done a few people yes it can be controversial because it comes to a lot of people come here for a fair interview but when do you become a target because you look at people who have like russell was always going to come a target let's be honest because he was really challenging that he was going right out against it and people know now one should go that far there's no coming back andrew tate says that listen they'll cancel you prison number three three strikes prison cancelled dead well look at what they're doing to laurence fox as well i mean and why was the police in his house a couple of days after that well exactly again the whole i mean look they claimed it was because laurence had said something about yulez cameras and wanting to cut down you know to the deacons despicable yulez cameras but i'll tell you what that was it was the whole establishment turning on laurence so they both did they did it to both of us all of a sudden we're number one story in the news for nothing come on that conversation that that didn't deserve to be the number one conversation in the news and then all of a sudden both of us have the police in our lives i mean that's deep state stuff and people say it's a conspiracy theory when you talk about the deep state no it's the reality the uk has a deep state it has a swamp and liz trups who i'm a big fan of has just pointed pointed it out too now she was cancelled in a very different way she was challenging the narrative in a different way she was challenging the globalist narrative and the financial narrative so i agree and i would not be surprised for andrew and russel and laurence for at least them to try and get them into prison but i have more trust and more faith in the british public actually and i hope and i pray that they will see that all of these things are terrible which hunts too but but he is right it's terrifying and this is something i keep on saying that the justice system is now being weaponized for political reasons and they try and shut down dissident voices right because all of those people you've mentioned are different they're all different they all have their own shtick they focus on different things i mean look at tommy and the grooming gangs russel with the world economic forum and the covid vaccines you know they all have different focuses but what they are all doing is challenging the mainstream narrative now i would say i find it quite hilarious that that i've been cancelled because you know a few years ago i would have been considered a centrist you know i don't think i'm at all extreme i think i just represent the views of the vast majority of the british public and we're now being called far right i mean that is nuts it's completely nuts it's like i believe in sovereignty i believe in low taxes i believe in protecting our borders i just honestly believe that they are shared by the vast majority of the british people but the uk is on its ass if we're honest it's on its ass because it's only gonna get worse attacks the weather everything that's just it just doesn't seem right it's just even when i'm in london it doesn't feel right it doesn't feel safe and it's changing even where i watch down there it's just you can't be sadeek khan it's just weird place has literally destroyed what was the greatest city in the world so i love london and i love scotsman i love london i always dreamed of moving there doing things there i don't know a question maybe the novel it wore off but it's just a as a sake feeling there so i'm totally different it's totally different it is no longer a safe place there are no go zones again something you're not meant to say but believe me if you're white or specifically if you're jewish at the moment there are no go zones in our capital city and we're all just meant to accept this i mean sadeek khan is a dangerous person look at what happened to lee anderson he lost his job in the conservative party for i think making completely true comments about sadeek khan so i think we are in a really tough place as a country i'd argue that and i'm not sure of your view on her but i'll i'll go there you know scheming sturgeon has you know during her time in office completely destroyed scotland too i love scotland you know my boyfriend scottish i love being here but she has done a terrible terrible job and again i won't talk about it for contempt reasons but let's see what happens in terms of that police investigation too something that the media didn't want to report for months and months and years and years so there's a and again i'll move on from sturgeon because i don't want to end up in jail for his tempt but you know but there's a lot of corruption there's a lot of fear in it the bullshit like there was some kid who raped a woman and then they were feeling they were talking about having something for his feelings and it was it was weird and people getting community service like the laws in that here the scotlands were in sass as well what isla bryce said i don't know it's just weird who's adam grime a male ripist whose sturgeon was going to send to a female prison he's standing outside in court with her skirt on his pecker coming through the skirt yeah for me that's that's not that that's not who should be leading your country that's not who should be leading full stop but thank thank god for the uncanceables though because someone who we haven't mentioned i guess because she's so different to all of the other people you've mentioned because actually she is on the political left but what about the bravery of jk rolling you know someone who i fell out with over the whole johnny depth situation but she's actually become one of my heroes because this is someone who literally said i do not care about my reputation because what i care about is protecting the rights of biological women standing up for reality and i compare her to scheming sturgeon i think my god i know who i'd rather have running the country so so i think there is some hope and one of the real reasons for hope is you're right you can't be canceling like if this had happened to me five years ago james seriously like what would i have done seriously like no one's gonna hire me right it's terrifying so i am blessed actually that technology and the way that we consume the news and the media has changed so much honestly you will not get me watching the mainstream media or even reading the newspapers now and that's crazy for someone like me to say that i mean i lived in the mainstream media for 20 years i read the newspapers every day i watched all the news bulletins every day no way now i get my news from the people who i trust usually via my mobile phone and when i have to seek something out for research purposes i will do it and i think more and more people are hitting in that direction and actually that can only be a really good thing for democracy right of course because these big mainstream media organizations i call them the british bashing corporations sly news and wokai tv they're bad for this country and obviously in america you've seen it too look at cnn it's dying on its ass because they became so obsessed with destroying donald trump over anything and the viewers saw through it i mean trump is going to be i mean look i think he's gonna win again and he should win again and how can you say that he wasn't a great president but that's another thing that you literally barely hear in the mainstream media was it not one of the only president of what you start a war yeah absolutely i think the world would be a much safer place and i think the other the other big thing about the mainstream media is do you remember that at the end of donald trump's term they were all trying to say that he was seen all right even though he was totally on its way when he's fucking off his head there's literally i mean we literally have a dementia written president right i mean he is literally not there the guy is senile and you have a media class covering up for him every day like i i'm genuinely so disturbed by that and they are treating him as if he can run for president for another four years why because they know he's not running the show he's a patsy and that's terrifying so so look i think um i think the independent media is going to be a huge force over the course of this election and i keep discovering new people like i don't know if you've heard of her but there's this woman who runs a brilliant substat called house in habit right and she started off as an influencer and covering like the trials of johnny depp and people like that and she is now one of the main sources of campaign news for both the donald trump and robert f kennedy junior campaigns via substat where she has over 250 000 subscribers i mean that's more than most newspapers in the uk have far more than the guardian or the daily mirror so i'm very inspired by people like that because i think what i can deliver now is total unvarnished unfiltered coverage but what i can do is actually reveal why the msm are doing the things that they've done because i've come from there do you see what i mean i know what anybody who gets goes through that sort of stuff i think it's getting more back in the never because they know how the main media operate and it's this is the thing about for me it's just sitting the fence but also have your opinions when asked but give an open view of every angle both sides not just one not just the just every angle and then it's fair because you've you've chosen saves in the day back in the day and it doesn't really do you any justice especially when the shitheads defend with yourself no but the thing is on gb news right i actually always had both sides of the stories story on but every story including by the way climate change so i call it not zero the not zero conspiracy now that's not to say that there isn't some changes to the environment but we're basically being asked to impoverish ourselves now you know on the bbc for example they'll never have someone questioning net zero they only cover one side of that debate so i absolutely agree i think it's important to cover both sides and i also think it's important for you to admit when you change your mind about something too so prince andrew's an example of that as i say i started off absolutely thinking he was um romean yeah like yeah and and and and and it was actually through my reporting on gb news where i was hearing the different voices and then i started doing my own investigation into it now the mail didn't want me to write about that you know that went against the narrative so i think you're completely right it's only if you actually are open-minded to both sides of the story um that you do discover things however there are some fundamental issues for me about freedom and scientific reality and things where i think um it's going to be hard to change my mind but i'm open to it what about andrew brady who he ended up in prison how did that come about you see a stalker or yeah so so this was all connected so this was another reason why i was so shocked when the cancellation campaign against me happened last year because brady had actually ended up in jail for making false allegations against me and stalking me so he was a previous fiance of caroline flat but the thing is he tried to buy into this narrative of me in some way um being bad for caroline well that could not be further from the truth so caroline i only ever wrote a story about caroline that she knew about and that she was happy about right i was very very clear to her i would never write something she didn't want so she was the one who provided me what was going on with with andrew brady it had to be out there because he'd done some really terrible things and all i can think is that he couldn't get over his own guilt for what he had done so and hopefully this paints a picture of what we're dealing with here so you know um on that terrible night with caroline and and her then fiance um where they ended up being the physical old altercation and yeah and and a lamp had been thrown right so andrew brady taunted caroline over that so much was trying to sell his story claim that she was abusive to him and all of that which i don't believe but do you know he was in australia at the time he sent caroline a lamp in the post to arrive at her house to taunt her for the fact that she had apparently thrown this lamp or the lamp didn't arrive until after she'd died so this was the type of guy we were dealing with i'm prepared to take a lot but he was threatening physical violence he clearly wasn't all there and this was all being done on social media and the police took it very very seriously and yeah he ended up he ended up being jailed for it i actually wish him well um again i never i never understood it i never understood it like he literally had been at events with caroline and i he knew that we were friends he knew that we got on he knew that we spoke that she spoke to me all the time so why was he trying to create this narrative he also knew by the way that he'd sent me messages trying to do the dirty on her and sell an interview on her and i had literally turned him down and said i have zero interest in doing that so yeah he went to jail but not for long four months yeah and i because he was on big brother he was on that franchise yeah and it was just it was nuts and i wish him well i'm very sad about what happened with him um but again i just i never understood it look it wasn't true nothing that he was saying was true you know he was saying absolutely crazy i mean he was comparing me to hitler it was nuts but i think that guy and again like i'm nervous even talking about him because i worry is it i mean i have like a five-year restraining order out against him he's not able to be in the vicinity of me you know the judge has been very clear you know and i published my victim and impact statement because i wanted to people to know the truth about caroline and i because no one actually knew the truth about it at that point um and the judge was very clear you know if he says or does anything towards me again he'll go back to jail which presumably he doesn't want but as i say i wish him well i want him to have a good positive life he should do he was a talented guy things went wrong with caroline he's got a chance at a second life now i believe he's got children and and has a partner and i wish him well um but it's not fair to try and paint me as someone who was against caroline and certainly any suggestion that i was responsible for anything that happened her um negatively at the end basically the sun had published the picture so this all comes from the fact the sun published the picture of the bloody bed right um where the instant took place and again this is completely factual i'm not trying to throw anyone under the bus but i just have to tell the truth i was in new zealand when the sun published that picture i was on holiday no one had told me about it the reason no one had told me about it is they knew that i would have been absolutely disgusted and horrified and said you cannot do that because i was in direct communication with caroline her manager and her pr and the moment that sun front page dropped her pr copied me on an email saying what that like with the sun news desk saying what the hell and that was literally the first i knew about it and i think it was an absolutely terrible decision to publish that picture but it was nothing to do with me it was nothing to do with me now again i'm not trying to throw anyone under the bus but i just have to be honest because people try and suggest that i was somehow involved in publishing that picture and i wasn't the truth is i was in constant communication with caroline i was only publishing stories that she was happy with and and i still have the messages you know she had said to me that she wanted me to do her first interview once she was through the legal process so i i loved her a lot and i miss her a lot but i also don't want to act as if i felt anywhere near the loss of her family or close friends or anything like that but but it's just the narrative around what people have and i i don't yeah i don't i don't get what people achieve by doing that but all like i i guess i've tried to understand it and as i said i've never spoken about it until now but personally i've tried to understand it and through therapy and things like that and i can only think that when someone dies like that in the most shocking way people want to blame someone they want to have one person to blame and what happened to caroline was so shocking and i and i think people still are not over it um but i but you will not find me people would you know something that always goes around on on twitter i see it constantly people say that i deleted a whole load of stories that that that i ran about caroline no they the stories don't exist because i never wrote a negative word about caroline you will not find a negative word about caroline from me and actually the one front page of the sun that people sometimes show is one i think the headline was something like flak sack it i can't remember exactly what the headline is but the headline looks as if it's a sensational headline right on the front page as soon as you read the story what the story was about was attacking itv for the decision to sack caroline when they had stood by ant mcpartlin you know of ant and deck fame because you know i also did all of the interviews with ant uh i'm the only person he's ever spoken to about both times that he came through his big drug addictions i'm driving yeah so well the first one was before that and then there was the so yeah both of his big interviews and comebacks he he did with me but but but the stories that i was were writing at that time was to say sorry i see how on earth can you stand by ant who i like a lot but how can you stand by him but you're not standing by caroline like and remember lewis caroline's fiance he didn't want the charges to be pressed like yeah so so it's wrong it's really unfortunate that this myth has been perpetuated because what it unfortunately has meant is that i've never been able to like celebrate my friendship with caroline so i've never been able to post about her never been able to share any pictures of us together or anything like that because if you do that now people are just thinking you're doing it for to make out your friends yeah and people people just attack me about it all the time so i as i say this is the first time i've ever spoken publicly about caroline and the andrew brady situation because for some reason people twisted and it's become this yeah like as i say like even some friends of mine have said like oh my friends think that you killed caroline it's it's it's hard that's really hard because as i say it was just could not have been further from the truth what makes a good journalist done so you've got to be prepared to question authority which i'm obviously very good at so that's never been a trouble with me but you also really have to be prepared to give people a proper shot and play long games with contacts so sometimes it's very easy to go for a quick story right a quick hit you know um but if you burn that person off they're never going to trust you again so you know like how i said no celebrities other than lily ellen spoke out against me i think it's because actually i never was screwing people over really i i played the long game didn't mean that you didn't want to write good stories but i think the best journalists have contacts who trust them because then it means that you can go to them when something really bad happens or the shit hits the fan and they know that you're not going to turn you over but i think but i think there are the two big things challenge the narrative always don't just accept what authority figures are telling you but then also find ways to build contacts that are the two big things because i think too many journalists now in both london westminster and washington dc they just follow the narrative all the time you know it's just whatever's being said at the podium at the white house whatever's being said in the daily briefing at number 10 and it drives me mad because so often they're being told lies but also bigger than that so often what they're talking about is not what the country is talking about and what it means is that stories that are so important have been pushed under the carpet for a long time so the two examples i would use would be the grooming gangs and the um and the boats you know stopping the boats it really took Nigel Farage Tommy Robinson gb news and folk like me to actually put those stories on the national agenda because for a long time the mainstream media they just pretended it wasn't happening you know like and you see it in american now it's like anytime that there's a shooting of of white people for example it's just not covered you know so so so often i think the media are ignoring stories so that's why i think good journalists tell us who changes just before we finish up but who changes a narrative to what they want to publish is that a big group behind that or is that a free for all because when one media jumps on something it seemed old media jumps on it so they work they work in packs do they they work in packs and i hate that i never understood that because i always wanted to break stories myself right partly probably because i was craving that success which isn't necessarily about something more but also because i thought you shouldn't just be doing something because every other newspaper is doing it but what you'll see like with the reporters at Westminster for example and also the reporters for the royal family which are probably the two beats that i'm closest to they're on big whatsapp groups they socialize together their pals they hang out with their contacts and they sort of develop narratives together so quite often you'll see the same political story or the same royal story on the same day in the times the daily telegraph the Daily Mail they might have a slightly different version of events but they sort of feel like they're operating in a pack now what i find exciting though is that those narratives can be changed but it's hard so an example of that that i would use would be the vaccine damage the COVID vaccine injured so that's something that for a long time the mainstream media completely ignored completely ignored that you would be called a conspiracy theorist to even mention it right but folk like me did not give up and there's other people i've got a call out for being brilliant on it um especially at GB news Mark Stein and Bev Turner but we kept on having the vaccine injured on our show regularly i kept on talking about it i didn't just brush it under the carpet you know it's like this guy lost his leg because of the AstraZeneca vaccine this woman lost her husband a doctor because he did the right thing and had the fight you know so so we kept on talking about it the mainstream media kept ignoring it then the other day at the GB news people's forum with the prime minister john watt who's one of the vaccine injured actually posed a question to the prime minister yeah and for the first time now i'd had him on my show you know good guy but for the first time i'm like okay it was still ignored but over the last couple of weeks i've started to see the prime minister changes rhetoric people are starting to talk about the vaccine injured you're not considered a conspiracy theorist now for raising it so look this has been three years of work we're not even close because this is a scandal do you know what i mean the the vaccine injured is a scandal but you can slowly but surely change narratives it's not easy though and um you don't always have a success and you need to go through some hard times to then push because the power of the voice the the voice of the people so stronger than anything it's just for so dumb down and caught on so much that we forget to ask the important questions what the fuck is all about yeah how do you feel telling your story today oh my god well it's so weird for me you know it's so weird for me because usually i'm you yeah right i've for years i've been you and i actually much prefer to ask the questions yeah like i would love to you're gonna have to come on my show anything but um that that's a demand but no but it's but also this has been cathartic for me to be honest because you know i was silenced for six months and um i had to read the most terrible things about me without being able to respond so i hope do you know like how you're talking about shifting narratives hopefully i can slowly shift some of the narrative about me not with my viewers because like my viewers they know me right they they they know me they know it wasn't true but i hope to be able to reach people who maybe thought the worst of me do you know do you know what i mean but again people are always going to have there's you're never going to truly convince everyone anyway you can only just stand your lane and be you and people who like you will gravitate towards you for me people it's a hat and mess with me i don't care i bought up a platform and i know consistency is key and i know the only person who cancels me is me i don't stop for no one i'm jealous of you but i hope that in a year's time i'm going to be able to say the same thing yeah perfect i'm going forward for the future dan watch our plans so the big plan is the launch of the daily show dan what an outspoken so at the moment there's a soft launch like i'm doing videos i'm doing interviews i'm writing my columns all via my own platform but my big big goal is to have the show and to do what i did on gb news but and this is the big but i will not be regulated by the off communists so i don't have to have someone on to provide the sort of mainstream narrative just to appease the regulators if you see what i mean and i'll also be able to have much more in-depth conversations with people too because you know on tv we're literally like eight minutes ad break eight minutes ad break eight minutes ad break so that's my big big goal so it's going to broadcast very soon but in the meantime i'm encouraging people to sign up because obviously i'm building the studio i'm getting lots lined up but there's still lots of content but it's the show for me that's going to be the the big achievement because it's going to be every day you know it's going to be a big it's a big undertaking every day lots of guests lots of content every day monday to friday but i truly truly believe that there's this desire for it. Look what pierce has done yeah uncensored it's fucking went mega yeah and he's two million followers he's got it and with the israelan palace thing he knows how no matter what it is he knows how to manipulate the audiences to get them he's very controversial but he knows what he's playing he's not like that off camera he's playing it to a fucking team people buy into it yeah it's a really exciting space like i look at what all of you guys are doing in that this space and i'm like i want to do it but i guess in my own way because i think the difference between say what pierce is doing and what you're doing is that i want to have that regular show at the same time every day that react that's live and reacts to that's for your use too yeah yeah and and i think it's what um i think it's where because obviously you're doing the brilliant interviews pierce is doing the great debates do you see what i mean but i think it's where there's a gap in the market in the uk because as i say if you want that sort of live news online which isn't regulated isn't on one of the news channels at the moment you've got to watch the americans but more people are gravitating towards that stuff yeah more people are aware of what's going on now and this is a thing with all this shit with the lockdown three years ago people are now questioning it and there is a massive shift so fair play yeah that for anybody watching it's maybe in a life of struggle what advice would you have for them do you know what i know it's so easy to say but you've got to turn to your family and your old friends who know you i'm saying that obviously because that's what i've just done but i genuinely don't think i could have got through the last year if i wasn't surrounded by my absolute roots and it wasn't easy for me because a lot of those people were in new zealand right so reconnect reconnect with the people who really know you because you know in life we get overwhelmed by the people who we're working with that particular day or our workmates who we go to the pub with right they're very often not the people who really know you and i think where i have been so fulfilled over the past year and why i've been able to reconnect with myself reevaluate decisions i've made and get stronger is because i turned to the people who knew me before i was in this career do you see what i mean and i think too many people and look it may be too simplistic because i know times can be so tough but i do think it will help i think it will help don't lose touch with your family if you possibly can reconnect with your school friends the people who you went to university with the other people who really know you and also the biggest thing that i learned are the ones who really have your back dan would you like to finish up on anything else no i just want to say thank you thank you so much for giving me all the time well and obviously please sign up www.danmortonoutspoken.com or just danmorton outspoken on youtube you know find me on youtube because there is going to be this show coming and i hope you'll enjoy it dan listen thanks for coming on a terrible plage i'm sorry that's listen that's business but listen you've got a clean sheet now now it's just okay so how far you want to take in thank you what you want to do i wish you all the best for the future dan take care

Rwy'n cymryd yn rhan i cwynhau eu gwirionedd o'r Ysgrifeth ffrwdio Europaidd ac ein ff incomeysiwn hwn yn ymddangos i'ch amddangos.

Rwy'n gweithio i'n rhan i'r panell, fel miraeth i'r Can you even give some opening remarks before we move into the main Q&A session? All right, as the minister said the economy has been growing fairly steadily and rapidly since the second half of 2012, employment is growing at 2.5% a year, GDP, GNP growing at maybe 5% a year. If this continues by the end of next year we will be approaching full employment and the current counterbalance payments deficit may be moving back into deficit ydy'r Byeol, yn ymwneud fwy yw'r cyflwyno'r cyfathau. Rwy'n mynd i wneud ar gyfer yr ystod, y dyfodol yn gweithio i'r fforddau o'r cyflwyno a'r gweithio i'r byw yn gweithio y 15,000 o ffawr y mae'r cyflwyno'r cyflwyno'r cyflwyno yw ddwy'r byw'r cyflwyno'r cyflwyno.

Under those circumstances, the Irish economy will need substantial action, physical action, taken by the government to take money out of the economy. I am very concerned that the commission is caught up in the rules, rather than looking at common sense. This happened in the last decade. In 2003 the ESRI recommended that if the government wanted to build cyd-dweithio pobl yn ymlaen, rydym yn ei addysg honno, os ydych chi gweithio pethoedd amddansol, dan y gallwch ei ddechrau. Yn ffrwd y bobl yma, rydyn ni wedi'n cael eu bod yn ei adlathio'r ofyn syddodol ond y bobl yn y ffrwd roedd y bobl yn e'n gweithio.

Rydych chi'n meddwl yn y cyffredinol? Maen nhw'n ydych chi'n bywyd y cyhoeddiant hynny? Yn y gwael ei meddwl ar gyfer y rhain ar y rhain, yn 2346, ar gyfer y cyffredinol, ar gyfer y rhain, mae'n hynny'n meddwl y gallwn chwarae yr rhain, ac yn dechreu, ond rwy'n meddwl unigoddiad cynnigau gyffredinol. Rhywun i'r bydd xinwch yn ei chweithio ar hyn o ran y rhain the rules and they need to eliminate the structural deficit. I think the commission needs to wake up and use their common sense, their macroeconomics role in the rules and recommend to the government because it's going to be very difficult for this government in the next budget to raise taxes. If not in the next budget, certainly in the following budget, to take one or two percentage points of GDP out of the economy by raising taxes, they're going to find it difficult. They are going to need assistance from the commission in doing the wise thing and I'm afraid the guidelines don't do that. Thank you. I suppose similar but a slightly different note. First thing to say and I suppose to start in a positive note that I actually agree with some of the recommendations, the country's recommendations particularly in terms of what they say with regard to health and childcare, with regards to the need for more permanent restructuring of non-performing loans. I suppose they're all very positive things and these calls are all very much grounded in the need for additional investment in the Irish economy and I wholeheartedly support that but I suppose the elephant in the room is the fiscal rules and I suppose John made the very potent point there that there is such as the blinkered thinking about surrounding the fiscal rules at the moment. There we're not thinking logically about how the Irish economy needs to develop over the next number of years. I suppose it's interesting to see the media coverage about the country specific recommendations and how Ireland is exiting the excessive deficit procedure. Yes, it's an important institutional milestone but I suppose I'd have to disagree with the minister and say I don't see it as a game changer because at the end of the day the structural deficit targets that we have in order to try and meet our medium term objective by 2018 are going to impose very tight budgets on us over the next three years. I suppose the key question is how are we actually going to introduce those very tight budgets and do all the spending that they're recommending so there's an issue about speaking out of both sides of the mouth. So I would really have to take issue with the commission's recommendation of the 0.6% adjustment in this upcoming budget particularly on the point where you look at the experience of the past number of budgets. I think the second thing is it fails to recognise the head start that we got last year in terms of the 2.4 billion anticipated resources into the public finances and indeed how about 80% of that came into the base was attributed to structural as opposed to just being cyclical. So I think it's an important point to make that ultimately that we're being blinkered so much by the, there's such a focus on the fiscal rules that it's impossible to see how we're going to be able to meet those spending movements that they say we need to commit to over the next several years. I think the second thing to say is it's interesting in terms of the timing of the publication and of course you know it has to happen at this time of the year but it came just 14 days after the publication for the government and I suppose an interesting benchmark to see well what's going on. Is the incoming government how much of it is going to deliver on the recommendations that have been issued to this country and in particular with regards to the tax space and the recommendation to broaden and strengthen the tax space. And I suppose the three you know particular areas of concern in terms of income tax and I suppose I'm relieved that the new political arrangement has in some ways I suppose altered or reduced the scale of the scales and vision with regards to abolishing the universal social charge. Even though there's about a billion of a difference I suppose in terms of what was originally proposed and what we're likely to see now play out I think with regards to housing. You know the price fees are the cap on on the local property charge expired in 2019 where we're going to go from there. It's not at all clear to me that there's going to be any appetite to try and increase the local property tax at that particular point you know it could be just after election or coming into an election. And I suppose the third big issue is with regards to and it's not a tax but of course it's with regards to Irish water and water charges and how we're going to try and fund the 5.5 billion capital programme in water over the next number of years. So I suppose just to conclude I think there's some positive things in terms of you know where we need to go with regards to spending commitments in the Irish economy over the next number of years. Ultimately we know that we need to spend to improve the productive capacity of the economy but I don't see any evidence of how leeway we have to do that given the constraints that are upon us at this point in time. I think the headline figures underestimate the strength of the economy. The debt has been funded at an incredibly low interest rate because of other factors in Europe. If you look at the debt burden in Ireland today compared to the debt burden exiting the crisis in the 1980s it's about 8 percentage points lower or 7 percentage points lower. Basically the story is not about the debt and the security of the debt it's being refunded long term. If the economy continues to grow they sell off the bank and so on. So the commission are so caught up and I think your question reflects this in the past and if you look at their forecast for Ireland they consistently forecasted their job and then they knocked one or one and a half percentage points because in the past the risk was under the form. People are not so used to that they're not looking at the risk of Ireland over the form and I think that we need to refocus to a more balanced view of the word and debt is private sector debt is a significant burden and a significant problem. Public sector debt is being dealt with. OK, so just a question from Mr Allen. Hello my name is Michael Yew. I'm the coordinator of the Environmental Bureau at the City Coalition of the 20th National Environmental Organisations. Vice-president from the property talked about building a tax base and he referenced and also the council recommendations he referred to the need to spend capital funds on climate mitigation and environmental measures. I guess the question is why aren't the government doing this and why haven't they got to make provisions for these serious issues that come down the tracks in terms of climate change particularly but also in terms of controlling property development through side area taxes. Thanks for the question. I mean it's it's an interesting one right because what we're trying to do in terms of one of the measures that we did in both in terms of taxation side and charging in relation to water and that side of what we're trying to do and we're going through some difficulty there. We now have the current situation where you know water charges have been suspended temporarily pending a review by a commission but we still have all this work that needs to be done in terms of investing in infrastructure and really getting people to believe in the polluter pays principle and that's posed a significant challenge over the last number of years and it's going to continue to be a challenge for the coming couple of years. I mean I'm just to be absolutely clear about it Phoenix air believes that we should be paying for our water and there should be water charges there and when you look at the recommendations from the commission I talked about having a broad tax base. That's part of having a broad tax base. It's part of also having consumption taxation. So it's been a worrying development that we've now found ourselves in a situation where we've got to suspend those taxes and that the political dynamic at the moment might seem that despite what the commission recommends when it's set up when it comes back in nine months time that we might be moving to abolish water charges which we are very worrying development in a regressive step in so far as investing in you know in protecting ourselves and climate change and looking at the environment. I think the program for government does identify some of the challenges there that we need to address and that we need to try and find consensus on how we address them. Very recently the Minister for Health set up this whole party committee in the Eroctor's to look at a 10 year plan for health spending and our health service in general and the initial stages of the program for government or for the size of government formation talks. That's exactly what we were talking about in relation to climate change and having that exact same approach because we are going to come up against problems. I think it is a 2020-2021 when we move into that cycle if we haven't done anything by then we're going to have serious problems post 2021. So that risk is recognised and we're about two or three weeks up and running. So once we have that chance we're going to move into that space very quickly and just the last part of the question that you raised in relation to housing and different taxation. I mean it's vacant site levy in place due to common force in 2018 and the idea of that is to ideally get people who are sitting on vacant sites to develop those sites so that we can use it for housing and for the needs that we have at the moment in relation as well to office space and other areas. But it comes back a bit to a challenge that I think John Fitzgerald has kind of outlined in terms of, you know, we have some immediate challenges in this country. A real immediate challenge is the risk of Brexit, what may happen. That's right on the near horizon. But stepping back from that and when we passed the referendum on the 20th of June, regardless of the outcome, we also have a huge problem here in terms of infrastructure and infrastructural development. And a lot of money needs to be spent and invested in our infrastructure and that is going to be money coming into the economy. That is going to be the creation of jobs and then the impacts resulting from that as well. And I'm not sure how you square that circle in terms of what John's talked about. I mean if the economy is overheating or if it's about to move to a point where by next year or end of next year we're moving into a dangerous situation in terms of overheating. At that same time we're going to be moving into increased capital expenditure because we need to do it in terms of schools, roads, homes, you know, hospitals. So I'm not sure how we're going to address that. Sorry if I could just come in on John's earlier point and also to speak to Marie's point a little bit there. Maybe just provide a little bit of the commission's perspective on our take on the fiscal rules and how they apply to Ireland. So just to clarify, moving from the excessive deficit procedure into what we call the preventive arm of the stability and growth pact is a bit like going from a really exceptional situation that Ireland has been in for the past six years. Seven years into what we would call normal times. And the logic behind the fiscal rules as they apply in normal times in the preventive arm is you benchmark your progress towards this thing that we call the medium term objective. And the vice president said this before against the potential level of growth in the economy. And the logic, that's a lot of fancy jargon, which basically boils down to when your economy is growing really, really fast, that's the time to exercise fiscal restraint. When your economy is not growing as fast, that's the time where you have a little bit more scope for engaging in fiscal spending. Now in order to actually do that on a technical level, and this is where we do tend to get very technical in our analysis sadly, it's difficult to break it down in simple terms, is you have to measure a thing called potential output. And the problem with that is it's a notoriously difficult animal to get your hands around. So that's where it gets very technical and that's where I think it's very easy to be frustrated with how the rules work and how they apply particularly to small open economies like Ireland. Our overriding message to that is why we will set out those parameters in the fiscal rules and it is our job as guardians of the treaty to promote that. On a policy level our message is these are guidelines and prudent fiscal management does not prohibit a member state from going beyond those guidelines and really acting in the spirit of what I think John was suggesting when he said, look at the strength of the Irish recovery and think about maybe reining in spending a little bit more. So when you're unsure about calculating these very technical things that really is the time to think about fiscal prudence. What specific measures it takes your government to take to address these issues? That's one question. The second issue is what kind of, since there is so much shortage in housing, there is a problem that if we see the prices of selling or buying or rent are excessively high. So what kind of incentives your government would be in in order to promote investments towards this sector? And third among all these restructurings proposed by the Commission, developed by the European Union, there are some hints concerning corporate tax. Is your government ready to examine the possibility of aligning the corporate tax with the levels of 17% proposed by the German? Thank you very much. That's a very, very interesting question there and I don't know which would have found maybe perhaps maybe take the second one first on housing. Marie, maybe the incentives you think that should be required for investment to resolve housing crisis? Well, I think it's very interesting from the government top asks that the government be judged, its performance be judged on whether it actually ultimately resolves the housing crisis and homelessness, which sets the bar very high in terms of how we measure its success or failure over the next number of years. Look, the housing crisis is multifaceted and I think there's certainly no magic bullet, but ultimately the government has to get involved, the state has to get involved in house building. And I suppose I hear the term crisis being bandied about again and again. And to me a crisis is defined by when we actually employ abnormal measures and not the measures tried and tested of old. So, I know that there is, well, the housing committee, they're up, this is doing a lot of good work at the moment. Certainly there's about four pages and the government dedicated to housing and talking about a whole raft of measures, but ultimately I'm not at all convinced that it will actually crack the nut of trying to remedy our housing issue over the next number of years. Because I think ultimately we need to deploy significant levels of state investment, state driven investment. It cannot be arm's length in terms of depending on tax breaks. Yes, of course, the private sector will need to be part of it, but the state is going to have to drive it and significant amounts are going to have to be deployed to that. And ultimately that we have healthy mix between private and social housing built across the country. But I'm not at, like, there's 100 million euros of a housing point about to be put in place. Some is vast in excess of that are going to have to put in place if we're going to be tired of 100,000 houses over the next five years. Can I just say, tax incentives are not the way to go. I recently discovered my grand-dance notes from her lectures from AC Pigu, one of the greatest economists of the past, from 1922. And in bright lights she had highlighted the fact that a tax on property ends up on the land owner. That if we give away vac concessions it's going to go to the property developer, not the buyer. So tax concessions are not the way to go. It is operating on the supply side. And as Marie said, it's a multitude of different policy measures are needed. I think when we talk about tax measures perhaps not being the way to go. This was discussed, there is an element in the programme for government about potentially looking at something to do with that when it comes to housing and to land. And there was a debate over whether that was the right course to take. And now that we're in this new politics these decisions will very much be for things like the dedicated housing community that have been set up. I mean it's a supply side issue. One of the problems that we've dealt with in Dublin City for a number of years is the amount of void properties that the council manages. These are properties that are empty. They're not being used and not being turned around quickly enough in between different tenants. We've also got a huge amount of empty stock in the city. I mean it's incredible how long some of those properties have been vacant. And Simon Cove news in this for housing has said he's not afraid to take on radical ideas and radical solutions. There's also a possibility that the European Investment Bank might have a role to play or the new Junker Fund. But there'll be difficulties there in terms of if we're moving into public-private partnerships because of some of the changes that seem to be coming down the line through Eurostown and how we're going to be accounting for public-private partnerships. And I know that T-Shoc's written to the President of the Commission and the President of the Council about this because there's a risk at the moment that current projects in the pipeline that are meant to be off balance sheet could be brought on balance sheet and there's a risk that the projects that are off balance sheet already might be brought on and they'll have a significant impact in terms of the management of our public finances if that were to happen. And so I know that we're hoping for a perhaps a bit more open and transparent dialogue around that. Just on the alignment of the work with tax rates? Well no, I mean 12.5% rate is not for changing. But what we've been trying to do and what we're keen to do is to lead internationally with the OECD on their BEPS programme and also in relation to the elimination of the double Irish. I think that's quite important because it's important for our own brand and how we sell ourselves abroad. Before an open economy like Ireland, our 12.5%, it's of national importance so it won't change. There are many other questions and Alan and then this gentleman is just a line of questions. Thank you Alan for his concerns. I think John is right to criticise the application of the rules that they are. Even if we have a property articulated common fiscal policy for the eurozone, there isn't enough leeway in the rules the way they're written for the kind of progress that Germany should make under the CSR to deal with the problem in the other member states. I mean we've boxed ourselves into a totally impossible set of rules but I've disagreed with Graeme. It's all very fine to say that when things are growing, when an economy is growing fast, it's trying to be physically conservative. That in general, yes, when an economy is growing fast just coming out of a recession, you need to have a bit more certainty about the way you go about it and that is not there in the rules that they are. The commissioner talked about the tax base and he mentioned, as far as I remember what I got him about, he talked about taxation on consumption, on services and property. I think he's probably right. I think, although not a lot of people believe it to be, I think the 52% margin of the tax base is about as far as it could go. I had the pleasure of myself many years ago of applying a much higher margin of tax rate. I didn't get a huge profit with the result of that. 52% margin of tax rate isn't over any Christian or Hague that you have to deal with. That means in this economy we should be looking at increasing taxes on consumption, on services and on property. Mary mentioned in passing property tax. There will be a major relevant, any increase in property tax here. We are about to do something very stupid about tax on services on the top of our economy water, whether it's temporary or permanent. It is going to be a good over the stake between the government. We've been there once before. Remember we abolished water taxation in 1997, just when it had begun to work. And we have a pension for doing that in this moment. And then go back to other taxes on consumption. This is actually rather easy left. Our tax rate is not low compared to other countries. If the experts are to be believed and people like me spoke with it to be further oppressed by a huge increase in taxation, it should reduce the income. The only two taxes that you can make a good case for now on any economic or environmental grounds are taxes on tobacco and tax on water fuel. And I don't see that there's going to be leeway in budgets this year and next year to make major changes there. And as I say, if you make one of the major changes, it actually should be reducing revenue. On investment, I think there are empty reasons for investment. I wish internet that the public service unions would stop talking about increases in personnel in public services as an investment in public services. It's not, it's a provision of public services, not investment. But we would have to get realistic about investment. Even if we were to move a bit outside the buildings as John, I think, would physically suggest, it would be on the investment side. I agree with Barry, most of the housing has to be from public services. We need a major programme of publicly funded housing both to deal with the immediate crisis and to stimulate the private sector into some kind of action. But we're going to have to make choices. There isn't a snowball's chance again that we can get the kind of investment people are looking for in housing over the next two to three years. And at the same time have large investments in the provision of health infrastructure, schools infrastructure or transport infrastructure. We are actually going to have to make choices. And if you look at, listen to the public debate as it has been going on here since well before the last election. People are not talking about choices, they're talking about everything at the same time. And, you know, looking at the public debate as it's gone on up to down and looking at the situation in our legislature, I don't see any appetite for making those choices. The vast majority of the noise is again in the water charges. The vast majority of the noise will be for increasing investment all across the board without any corresponding increase of tax. And even if we maintain U.S.C. own change, there is still not enough revenue there to support the level of services that we are aiming for. So we are going to have some huge problems. The final point I'm going to make is a question with what are the CSR recommendations for Germany, particularly on the investment side, and is the commission confident that they will be up here to. Thank you. Actually Phillip is going to answer just Alan, your last question. I'm the chief organiser that the Vice-Political Forces have referred to. So anything that has to do with commission issues or Brussels? Please give me that to me. On Germany, the commission recommendations is to use fiscal space to run a slightly more expensive distance, and to expand public investment. So I think that is also in line with what was said in Mr Glass here. We have a mighty expenditure of fiscal standards at the EU area level, which is appropriate to certainly add fiscal space to the commission things. They should use it, and they are certainly also stoked in Germany to improve public infrastructure. So why not use the money that we have and spend it? So that's a recommendation. The degree of implementation in Germany of such specific recommendations, of course I can only speak for the past, is not very high. So clearly overall also there is an issue about CSR, so such a specific recommendation, implementation ratios. They have been relatively low, but I think we have made quite some progress by focusing on them more and bringing these discussions exactly to the countries, into the countries, and make sure that we pick up on issues that are of political relevance. In the past we had recommendations on issues which were just not politically interesting with this country. They were maybe economically relevant, but to get the ownership to get countries really moving, we have to pick up on them in the country, so I think we have made progress. I would also like to use the opportunity because there has been some talk about fiscal rules, and they are very close to my heart, coming from Brussels. I've done a couple of events of this type in other capitals, and you won't believe it, but in every country you go to you say, well your rules are fine, but we are different. No matter where you go, we have a large budget to countries, with a federation of about 50%. We have countries with small budgets, around 3% GDP. Everybody tells me, yeah, yeah, these rules, yeah, we basically agree, but you know for us it's different. You know for us we shouldn't count investment or we shouldn't count this or that. They are working, no? Rules are rules because they are applied across all countries. So there's no single rule for every country that is a rule anymore. So we have to make certain provisions that are applicable across countries. That's my point, 74. The idea of the rules is set some minimum levels. Give you a speed limit saying, you know, you shouldn't go faster than that. If on your domestic side you think this is still not included and we want to be even more included, fine. There will be nobody standing for that. On the specific case of the projection by such as Gerald. Okay. Then you talk about where are we in the economic cycle? Are we already at the peak of the cycle? Are we at the risk of overheating? Our assessment is there is still a negative output gap, so we are still below what we could produce, to still have unemployment, which is coming down, but you know it's still a little high. Innovation is not visibly exploding. There are no reasons to assume that, you know, this growth rate that we protect for next year is sustainable and we should not unnecessarily try to calm it down. Of course if you implement huge investment tax, things will change, but the government has only been in place very short, so we will not make a judgment on that. Thank you. Minister Emery, I know you don't want to go in on that. Thank you. Just very briefly on the last speaker. I'm not so sure about the one size fits all approach myself but in relation when it comes to calculating the structural budget balance, those red lights weren't there using the methodology. They weren't there in the Nordic's and Johnson's show point of the side and I'm not sure maybe they're not there now either and I suppose as a preference I think on the Irish side to look more towards the expenditure benchmark route. If you're to look at a route, I just want to come briefly on what Alan Duke said. I mean I'm still too new to politics to disagree with Alan Duke's. Definitely still too new to Phoenix Hill. At one point, and I do with almost everything you said Alan, I think investment in people is an investment in public services. I do. I think there's some investment there that's needed personally. I suppose similar to the minister. I'm not sure that many of us would have said when we came to Bosch for the fiscal compact treaty in 2012 that the rules are fine. I think most of us will recall at the time that there was the degree of conditionality with regards to accessing the European stability mechanism, which we thought we might have to do at the time. So I think there were huge concerns about the nature of the rules that the minister said and particularly with regard to the methodology and I suppose it's only really now, because we have exited the excessive deficit procedure that we're really seeking to see the impact of that over the next number of years. That's great. I definitely don't remember any background in the investment in various European countries. That's important. We're able to watch closely the analysis and the operation. It's quite the same time it was working here. We would say that's been found and we would say that it was mentioned in that process at this point. A wide perspective including an all iron perspective and one thing I need to be noted about the document to be commissioned is that it will be provisioned if the UK votes to Brexit won't take it to June. That is the real element of the rule that is supposed to refer back to Mary's point. I'd just like to draw attention to two things that haven't been mentioned in the commission which I'd like to welcome. One is in Paris seven, the health care system. The fact that 40% of the population paid the health care system and actually don't access it very much ourselves. In relation to European Union as a whole we must be weighed down in a difficult situation that the health care system is paid for by the few but is not accessed by the few. I don't know what can be done through this. I don't believe nor will everybody including I think the president that it's simply a matter of increasing resources and it's one personnel at the health service what is really an issue that seems to be a systemic distinction between management on one hand and front line medical and paramedical services on the other and that's something the government is addressing but it is a very serious issue and I'd be interested to know that the minister and the panelists came to that. The second thing is legal services. In Borksgold, the joy care did go into the issue of today's distribution system costs and legal services has serious drags in the economy and they are here to not only in relation to decision making in regard to commercial disputes which hold up decisions like companies that differ from the economy but also decisions in relation spectacularly and in the infrastructure of values constantly held up by education and by schools so I'd be very interested in the panelists for the best of that and perhaps on the juice also but not in this financial aspect none of these previous have as Minister for Justice where I've had the pleasure of working with them on it. The legal service is one of the longest rules come out of the programmes and the longest things get on the statute books. The bill itself, the legal services bill when it was first drafted was a huge piece of legislation and it was contained reforms across every aspect of the legal services and how people use legal services how they regulate themselves and it got into difficulty at different points in time for different reasons, some on the political side but it was passed and what we're seeing now I think is the beginning of some important changes on the cost side of legal services and the cost of accessing legal services the state did drive a pretty ambitious programme of driving down costs because the state itself is a significant purchaser if you like, of legal services and on that side we did our best to try and drive down costs while making sure that it was cost-competitive and that we could have a properly functioning legal system and in relation to the speed sorry, the other issue of accessing the courts I mean the courts of appeals is now being set up there's further work to be done there in relation to moving more quickly through the court system where things have been done around personal injuries on that side as well but the legislation is still new if I could say that and there is still work to be done Brexit being the elephant of the room absolutely and we're sitting here we're not passively waiting for it to happen or what might happen to John himself authored a co-authored a very detailed paper last year with the department that's been done internally in the last number of weeks as to the potential implications the risks, the opportunities if there are any and so we're looking at that also from a political point of view ministers from the government are getting involved in the debate we've got to be careful about how we do that as well because obviously this is a sovereign decision for the people of the UK but there's somewhere in the region of 400,000 Irish people living over there who have a right to vote there's somewhere in the region of 230,000 this isn't living here without the right to vote we can play a constructive role with them we can play a constructive role up in the north of Ireland which I hope to do next week when I go up myself but you're right if there's going to be an exit by the UK there's going to be significant consequences not just for our economy but also for the geopolitics of the European Union as well and then for managing the kind of crises that are going to continue like the refugee crisis which is so important which will continue and then on the other the point you made in relation to the healthcare system it's very frustrating and when we came into government in 2011 we had a plan, a 10 year vision we thought of the time for reforming the healthcare and reforming access to healthcare we know that we don't get the return that we get that other European citizens get for the amount that we invest as a state and that's a significant problem we know that more investment needs to be made and I think we know now that we need a new model a model that focuses on care at home that focuses on primary care centres and that's moving towards these ideas of hospital groups and that management structure but the whole purpose I think of the minister's cross-party committee on health is rather than have health continue to be a political football that's kicked around in the dual chamber and kicked around in election time is to find a consensus that will outlive the party and government that will outlive these and that can continue to be implemented regardless of who's sitting in the chair Thank you We've got 10 on set for questions so I know there's a gentleman here and then off to the doctor Do you want me to say something on healthcare? I suppose the interesting thing is the recommendations highlight the uncertainty with regard to the future direction of the health system I suppose I very much welcome the initiative Minister Harris in terms of going to see cross-party support for a common vision We don't know where that's going to go of course but we have to give the government the doubt at the point of time I suppose to me the really important thing is that in this country we have a public hospital system and a private primary care system and ultimately unless we crack that nut over the next number of years we won't begin to resolve the endemic issues in terms of financial management within hospitals and all the other issues and the rapid pressures in the Irish health system so ultimately I suppose I think there is a possibility now of putting in place a new direction but we'll get to see what's going to come out of that So one question here and then there's two I'm just reading the words of the first recommendation about increasing the cost of effectiveness and the quality of the hospital expenditure I don't actually say increase the amount of it but it needs to be 3-4 billion extra every year for our community I'm just wondering the back value of the capital fund does a chance to meet what extent can we really ramp up the rest of the foundation of the capital expenditure without the choices I agree with you on the need for investment and it's got to be funded out of taxation so I hope that Ibeck recommends increases in taxation to fund that Okay, we're going to get in this video here and then that should bring us very close to time but I'm already deep on the society's interests before and I'm just I'm confused and frustrated I'm hearing a lot of very rigid messages and juices We're sitting here in Dublin too a block away from these kids and I'll get the stars down then because they're long period families can't afford to get them on the bus but that's too grand We're sitting here where people will never even consider making it a third level because guess what? There's group career guidance at a second level due to cuts that were made but I have here to say that the policy and coherence with regard to labour market activation which sounds like laughing to people who are told you know what, you need to get yourself more hours in Tesco or you're only going to be a kid on your own to make your own tea and do your own homework this is the reality in all the parent households and I'm angry at a level that's quite emotional at the moment because I'm hearing a lot of difficult people battling around fiscal rules in Brussels I'm sick of fiscal rules in Brussels if we can't have a government that's open to you minister here that you need to say to us that you can survive, another white element is how long will this government survive won't they even say that to you I want you to say more than generic things about this health service which is, and disgrace, and bizarre and people here will laugh at a level described into them I want leadership, I want coherence and I want long term vision and Alan is right, how on the hell are you going to prioritise it because you're either in or outside the rules Minister how much you've been straight Alan talked earlier when he talked about the current state of the legislature but the whole potential political instill how are you going to manage and execute the choices and circumstances where the government is bounced into new legislation is actually on the mortgage rates when the government goes to vote earlier this year I mean how are you going to manage and execute those choices when there is that level a moment if I can just to reply from Vincent de Paul on our question I mean language is so important around this, okay and in terms of how we communicate and I felt proud as myself meeting yesterday evening when a motion was raised about mortgage arrears and people being evicted from their homes and I stood up and I spoke in numbers and figures and was almost killed by my own parliamentary party because I wasn't communicating at all to them and if I had gone out and said it outside of the room I wouldn't have been communicating to them either it's one of the reasons why at the moment in politics around the world not just in this country the centre is not holding people are the people who kind of maybe represent the centre in some way have lost that ability I think and I'm one of them I guess to effectively communicate what we're trying to do and why we're trying to do it and it's lending itself to populist arguments but also because of what's actually happening so you're right, if we talk about labour market activation what the hell does that mean to most people and Catherine Byrne spoke about this last night who's our new minister for the drug strategy about taking a white sheet of paper approach to everything that we're doing we have got the fiscal space to fund what we're committed to in this programme for government it's about 6 billion in public investment committed between now and 2021 if the government gets to that point in time that's in public spending capital spending on top of what's already in the capital investment plan that was published last year which is a gentleman of reference to we'll be reviewed next year and there might be an opportunity to see how much more you can spend guidance councillors yes it's in the programme for government and that's one of the investments that we're going to make and that's where the money is going to go and when we talk about investing in people being in investment in public service that's what it is early learning initiative there is a fantastic programme being done out of the national college here in the docklands just in this area I don't know if people here some know about this area well but this area has obviously our silicon docks and it's got our Irish financial services centre but it's also got some levels of very high deprivation and the two communities haven't been brought together properly and it's a real shame because it's an opportunity at a time that the investment was being made those years ago that wasn't taken and we're now trying to do it now but things like early learning initiatives which are getting funding increases every year and again it's a commitment in the programme for government it's about putting resources in at the very early ages of life and not just putting them into the classroom where the child might benefit directly but putting them into the child's home in terms of how the parents are interacting with the child how the parents are interacting with each other all those things do make a difference but they do take time as well but education is very much where it's at and in relation to health and it comes back to moving to a single tier system that's what we're trying to do it's a universal health model and so if your child is under six free access to GP care if your parent is over 70 free access to GP care it's going to increase those levels so it'll be under 18 we're also bringing in dental care as well as part of that so this is how we hope to spend the money to try and improve people's lives but coming back to the question of the politics of this and how long will we last we have something new here now we have a proper minority government it's a partnership government Fenegell's the majority in that partnership but we've done it then with a mix of independence we have a confidence and supply agreement with CinaFall and it's not something that we've ever had to do before and we spent a lot of time over the two months of government formation talks looking at how other countries do this New Zealand with a particularly good model given that they're a similar parliamentary system a similar legal system and the first time they did it it took them a couple of months to put it together and it lasted a couple of years the second time they did it took them a few weeks to put it together and it lasted a few years what we have an agreement with is a midterm review with CinaFall part of our confidence and supply we've agreed economic and social policies with them and that will guide us through making sure that our program for government can be implemented in tandem with that I'd love to tell you that we can go five years and that everything's going to be done by 2021 that we have in this program but I can't say that to you because it requires a new approach not just from government it requires a new approach from the public sector and the civil service as well personally I'm not seeing that new approach yet but one of the litmus tests will be the housing committee and the recommendations that come from that if they come with reasonable good objectives that we can actually implement that aren't unconstitutional or aren't illegal then great will have something to go with but if they don't then we're going to have problems getting a proper action plan for housing off the ground and that's one of those difficulties but for me I'm actually I'm actually I think it's an opportunity and I'm optimistic about it because there are some very good parliamentarians there and if we can find a way for those politicians who actually want to get things done rather than prepare for the next election and increasing their voter base by being populist if we can find a consensus among us and actually show progress but it'll be tough, show progress in housing in 12 months it'll be tough, show progress in health it'll be tough but that's a challenge that we set ourselves and we're going to go back to the people who are asked to be judged by that when the election comes and I hope we've got a good message to sell so we're just going to go ask us here and how do you want us to come in on this? Just briefly to Neil's point on the the spending issue and stuff so we do actually say, we do say prioritise capital expenditure and we do mention public infrastructure so I think we have to take a position in terms of prioritisation and what areas we want to look at then and then just to Audrey's point briefly to say clearly the social focus on it the concern we have on the poverty issues and childcare and that that is very clearly set out in terms of the heart of our concerns I'm just a final question My name is Turgio, I'm from Cyftu A question I have is in relation to childcare and the next condition is to improve the provision of quality before the full-time childcare and a great task for people in the question of emissions what is actually the conditions of the standard of the quality of childcare and the model and the conditions are what needs to be done to achieve this model Is there a community in relation to retaining what I'm trying to say about what's happening? Indeed, Jeremy, I think there are with the childcare the availability and the affordability are very important but the quality as well that came across very clearly in our discussions with various stakeholders it's really important that it's not just about putting people in there so that people can go out to work as such that is the most important element is that the care that they're getting in childcare is top-notch they're well, they're capacities it doesn't need to be PhD qualifications but that the people involved in delivering the care are the right people that the work is valued that it's considered to be a high-value work and that it's part of the equation that there's provision made for all these aspects of it so it's availability, affordability but the quality is essential as well We've made it from normal times into potential overhating quite a while but I suppose one of the PhDs is very important today is the level of flexibility given the fiscal rules on your behalf I'd like to thank all of our panels John, Mary and Minister Murphy it was my job to deliver you by 30% next year down the time

Goals of the Open Data Platform
Hortonworks and Pivotal are major contributors to the new Open Data Platform. By open sourcing their investments, Pivotal hopes to bring together “a bunch of companies to help accelerate the bid data space.” Furthermore, said Spiegel, Pivotal hopes to “enable people to have a common core” around which it is easy to innovate. The ultimate goal is to “create value” in order to help customers better “meet the needs of the market.”
Connolly explained that the Open Data Platform will foster such innovation because of it’s “common core.” It functions as a “common substrate,” a “chassis” into which customers can plug whatever “additional elements” they need.
In response to critics who have labeled the Open Data Platform, “just another industry partner consortium,” Spiegel says that the proof is in the pudding: it’s no small risk for Pivotal to open source “order a billion dollars of investments.” The decision, he and Connolly agreed, has a lot to do with furthering the industry in response to customer demand.
What’s Driving the Open Source Platform
The Open Data Platform, Spiegel said was created in reaction to the general sentiment from customers that “things need to go faster.” It, Connolly explained, is “more of a consumption thing, than a production thing.” The Open Data Platform, Spiegel added, is a response to demand for a “level of consistency” from big companies. With the Open Data Platform, he said, there’s less need for extensive testing or migration. Indeed, “there’s a lot of value that gets created in the ecosystem.”
By choosing “coopitition” instead of competition, Spiegel said that Pivotal will be able to “leverage resources in the open source space” and “help accelerate innovation.” It’s an opportunity, contributed Connolly, to “amplify the market” and catch up with customers new “expectations of consuming.” He explained further, saying, “The conversation with customers is ‘we’re betting our business on this technology,'” and the risk has driven more mainstream enterprises to “participate in addressing data governance needs for their company.”
The Open Data Platform, both Spiegel and Connolly agreed, will help both born-in-the-cloud companies and legacy enterprises create value and take advantage of new technologies in order to improve their businesses.

Live from the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, California, it's The Cube at Big Data SV 2015. Okay, welcome back everyone. You're watching The Cube here live in Silicon Valley. This is our flagship program. We go out to the events, extract the civil noise. I'm John Furrier with Silicon Angle and The Cube. I'm excited to have two awesome guests here, Hortonworks and Pivotal because of the big news of the week, which we've been talking about basically since yesterday is the open data platform, Sean Connelly from Hortonworks and Leo Spiegel, Senior Vice President of Corporate Dial from Pivotal. Guys, stars of the show so far, fireworks exploding. Huge deal, I mean this is a big, probably one of the biggest announcements I've seen is pretty significant for the industry and we've been talking with you guys since the formation of the big data industry, watch Green Plum and EMC and the Pivotal, all that transformation, all that development from creation, okay, we're now years into big data. So welcome to The Cube and welcome to the segment. So I guess we'll start with Pivotal, obviously great success. Cloud Foundry has produced some great numbers. I was actually shocked, I thought it was mostly Green Plum but if you look at the totality of just what Cloud Foundry has done, huge success with Pivotal and now you guys are essentially open sourcing a lot of the investments you guys have made and Horton were essentially with Hadoop, the investments you guys made significant. So first, tell us about the announcement. You guys had a big event yesterday. What is the open data platform? We were just on IBM, they're making a huge bet. They're behind it. The entire industry's behind this event around standardizing Hadoop, what does it mean? Yeah, I mean, first and foremost, I mean, we think that the Apache world is fantastic. They do great work, all of the engineering, all of the development is key and we're not looking to change any of that. What we're really about is bringing together a bunch of companies to help accelerate the big data space and really enable people to have a common core that we standardize on so that all Apache bits coming from Apache and Sean will talk about that in a second, but that we all make sure that when we release our products, they're all using that standard core. In addition to that, what we really want is to enable all the companies to continue to innovate around that core. So lots of opportunity to create value and really meet the needs of the market. And a big thing you're gonna see with the open data platform is customers really voicing what they think is important and what they need to be successful. Because as we, as Pivotal, our journey is really about building this next generation of solutions for enterprises, helping them transform themselves and data and agile and our paths, our cloud foundry technology is really the hallmark of how we put these things together to help customers move in that direction. And data and data analytics in Hadoop is a really, really critical part of that. So I want you to talk back up for a second because there's been some critics out there saying, okay, just another industry partnership consortium, but the things are different. We're not living in a UNIX days and now there's post out there looking at the comparison to active desperation. But that's kind of the critics point. How do you answer that saying, hey, that's the naysayers of the critics, but talk about why that's different in this time where speed and agile and moving to the market is faster. How do you guys answer to that? Yeah, so a couple of observations. First of all, I think people should judge open data platform on our actions. And we just announced it, give us some time. I think we have a good track record. I mean, we took Cloud Foundry, which we built at Pivotal, spent a lot of money building. We put it in a foundation. Sam just joined as our CEO. I think we've come a long way. We have over 50 companies now building solutions on and around Cloud Foundry. And we intend to do the same thing with open data platform. And we're blessed to have great partners like Hortonworks and IBM and SAS and Splunk. And you know the list of 15 great companies. The other thing I would say is, from Pivotal's perspective, we've been all in an open source for a long time. Our heritage is spring source, which is kind of interesting because of the history that we have with Sean, obviously Cloud Foundry. And yesterday we announced that we're open sourcing our entire data platform. Over a billion dollars of investments made by basically EMC and VMWare, which we're giving to the community. And our plan is to, with Hawk and with Jim, apply for incubation at Apache. And we hope we're accepted. And then with regard to the Greenflum database, we'll do something different because it's based on Postgres. So we can't take it through Apache. But the point is these technologies will become available. Other people will be able to take that technology. And it's really about growing the industry, right? And enabling the industry to grow faster. If you actually look at the event yesterday, I think it's actually customer driven is kind of how we've been doing it. Who are the, just some of the names, and throw some names out there. Who's behind it? Obviously IBM's behind it. What are the partners behind it? Well, I think it's, if you look at what's demoed yesterday as an example, is Hawk on Hortonworks Data Platform managed by Mbari, right? That our journey together started last summer, effectively when we started collaborating around Mbari and those types of things. But really the goal here is, if you have a common core platform that not only runs the additional elements that we as Hortonworks focus on, but Hawk, Gemfire and other things that'll plug into that same chassis or IBM with big SQL or HP with Vertica or whoever, you provide the common substrate, then you enact a really solid choice, right? For end customers. Whether they're the GEs of the world or the others who participated in this announcement, a lot of this has been pushed by the end customers who at the end of the day, like a lot of what we may provide, but also like what a pivotal or an IBM provides and they want to get the best of both. So customer, how do you execute on that, right? Yeah, so let's just drill down on that. So people care about who's involved and how does it increase, accelerate the time to value, right? So let's talk about who's involved. So what are some of the names out there? Verizon, a major international telco, General Electric, SAS, Century Link. I have to go through my whole list of all these. Yeah, some players. Yeah, a lot of them are hitters and they're like little companies. Oh, a small company called Teradata. So I mean, these are some really important companies I think who are coming together. And it's really about, you know, doing good and accelerating the market. I mean, we think that at the end of the day, we can add value to the ecosystem and that's really what we're trying to do. So what are the customers looking for? Is it the standardization of Hadoop is a timing of releases? What, Sean? Yeah. And by the way, this is all being done in the open. Total, totally open. So that's I think a level of clarity I think it's worth putting a fine point on is the reality is it's sort of less about the production side, which Apache Software Foundation projects do that in spades, right? It's really about if you have the constant innovation that's happening in the projects and particularly across projects as well as commercial things that will plug in to the common platform is can you agree to ship a common version? So that way, Hawk and other technologies, SaaS and others can plug in and have a validation effort around a common version. So it's more of a consumption thing than a production thing, right? So open source works great for the production and the beauty is as consumers we're able to pick any and all types of versions and what we found was Pivotal's shipping a different version, IBM's shipping a different version, we're shipping a different version. So it's not the name of the component, it's actually version compatibility that helps downstream consumption, right? And we got briefed on Friday, so we'll do a little bit of the news and I asked the question, was Cloud Air involved in the deal? The answer is they're not involved as we saw some of the comments on the blogs yesterday. Were they invited? I mean, that's what people want to know. Absolutely. They were 100% invited, MapR was invited, all of the major companies that you would think about that are in this space were invited and they're welcome, full stop. I mean, we hope they'll join, we think it would be great for the industry and this is about openness, it's about co-opetition, right? I mean, IBM's a great example. I mean, we compete against IBM all the time with customers but we still find ways to work together on behalf of the industry and on behalf of our mutual customers. The other point I'll make is, as big data becomes more prolific, it's not unusual for big enterprises to have multiple versions of these technologies, right? And it becomes super complicated, right? They want to have a level of consistency. If you're an application vendor, you want to know that when you release the next version of your product, you don't have to test it on all these different distributions. Or migrate. Or migrate. So I mean, there's a lot of value that gets created in the ecosystem and to your point, things need to go faster. So why don't we find a way to work together to make things go faster? So I got to ask you guys, because you guys are both industry vets have been around the block and we're living in a new modern era and people who know me know I'm very, have been very skeptical of these big consortiums. When an open stack came out, I'm like, oh, this is just a big land grab, you know, Barney kind of deals. But then it really moved the needle in terms of people shipping code out there. And Cloud Foundry, same thing, seems like a land grab, but look at what's happened with the foundation. Now here, again, along the same lines, open data platform. Leo, talk about what you guys have learned because Cloud Foundry has been successful. You guys have got revenue behind, it's been some consolidation. What's different? Why are these new consortiums successful in this era now versus, say, back in the old days? Well, you know, it's interesting. I mean, if you go, I spent a lot of my time with CIOs. And if you talk to CIOs, what you hear is they want to know that the technologies they're betting on, they're not going to get locked into, right? At the same time, they want innovation on the top. And so with Cloud Foundry, one of the things we learned, and we really modeled ODP around it, was a common core. So lots of companies are taking Cloud Foundry, including IBM and HP, and they're building competing products to Pivotal, but we're all agreed that to call the product Cloud Foundry, it has to be based on that common core, full stop. I mean, version releases have to be synchronized, and it's super important. Versus owning a whole big monster of land grab core, as were you saying, that's the new kind of innovation. Yeah, I think that's the new innovation. And I think we did the same sort of thing here, and that leaves opportunities for companies to create value around the core. The other thing I think we learned with Cloud Foundry is, you know, there's been a lot of people saying, oh, it's all about the big corporations with all the money. But the reality is, we do have resources, but we want to leverage those resources in the open source space. And I think these foundations and associations are a mechanism to do that. They don't take away from innovation, they don't take away from developers, they don't take away from any of that. In effect, they can really accelerate it because we do have a lot of money. So why don't we use it together for the common good of the industry? And, you know, let's work- So talk about that money piece. So the theme is follow the money for our big data event this week. So are you buying market share? Are you donating market share? I think we're- Or both. I think we're more donating than buying. I mean, here are some of the things we're going to do. We're going to develop as part of ODP a standard CI suite, so that people can download that suite and test their applications on top of it. That'll cost some money, right? We're also going to work on eco-developing the ecosystem, right? We also want to work on education, right? There are, you know, one of the big questions when you go talk to enterprises is where are all these technical people who can deal with Hadoop, right? I mean, we're at such an early stage in this industry. So if you think of market amplification, we have the opportunity to actually amplify it into the industry. The feedback we get from customers all the time and the Wikibon guys have been tracking this is that customers want faster turnaround. It's not like the old days, the lag, the longer life cycles of software development, certainly shorter agile, what do you want to call this happening? Sean, I want to get your perspective. Rob Beard and you guys are both veterans of open source, we're all kind of first generation. We've seen the different eras of open source. What's different now in open source that makes these kinds of things viable and successful? I mean, what's different about this new generation? Yeah, today's reality is particularly in infrastructure platform software is it's done completely in open source, completely. That's the term. It isn't just this P with other pieces that if you want to pay for that value you can opt in. The reality is that slows down the adoption particularly on game changing infrastructure platform technology within the enterprise powering the cloud or what have you, right? And I think, so the expectations of consuming that type of model have changed dramatically over the past 10, 15 years. And what are the table stake tactics that need to be done in this market? Voting with code, is that kind of the standard? Well, I mean, you have to walk the walk, right? So at the end of the day the guys in our four walls, guys and gals in our four walls are, they code, right? That's what they do. We happen to contribute everything in our model to those other sources. Versus playing in there for PR reasons than having a proprietary little old spec. Yeah, exactly. That was kind of the old model. So, yeah, I mean, everyone wants a competitive advantage. Let's just be, people are in business to make money, it's not non-profit, right? Well, there's sort of accusations around open washing and things like that. I would say actions speak louder than words, right? So, give me an example is, and I was at the Pivotal event yesterday, the fact that Pivotals come to the decision to actually put hawk and gemfire and those types of things in open source, I'm telling you, I can guarantee you, that's not a marketing gimmick. That's not an open washing marketing gimmick. That's real. That's real. That's real stuff that's powering transactions and real solutions to that, right? So, sort of being called out in the intent, it's really up to these guys to kind of defend themselves, but I look at it and go on, no, you're actually bringing real code to the party. And it's cost too, so it's an asset for them that they're donating in this case. So, I mean, we were talking prior when we come on, the game is still the same in open source, you gotta win the audience and you gotta win the respect of the market. Yeah, I mean, there's no head face, a long game, right? No, and just look at infrastructure, software like .NET, who would've thought Microsoft would've done what they did, and oh, by the way, that runs on Linux as well, right? We're in a new era, guys, right? That's just how the technology's done. So, where does the value shift? Leo, you're the Corp Dev guy, you've done a lot of investments in startups, impressive track record. You look at the chess board, also have the inside baseball in this deal. What's the landscape look like? What is the value creation? Obviously, we've seen Pivotal evolve in VMware with Maritz, and we just interviewed Pat Gelsinger two weeks ago, and certainly network virtualization's a nice area that pass going after, and you got this kind of like middleware layer pass or Cloud Foundry, whatever they call it. Where's the value, where's the opportunity to create a competitive advantage for the big guys? You know, if you look around us, industries are completely being reshaped, right? Uber is killing taxi drivers. You know, Netflix killed Blockbuster. You can go from industry to industry. Right, Spotify, true cars, or man, there's all these guys that are just data-driven disrupting their perspective areas. Exactly, at the same time, you're gonna, you know, you have more people, I believe this is a true fact. It was told to me, so I haven't checked it, but I think more people have cell phones than toothbrushes on this planet, which is a little weird. So, I mean, think about the fact that you have more devices, at the same time, you have all these... What's the unit of things, floss? I mean, you know, wearables? Maybe, but then you have all these sensors, right? So then you have all these companies putting sensors on everything, from jet engines to people's socks to, you know, running shirts or whatever. All that information is gonna get put into basically a big data store, right? Call it a data lake. But the interesting thing is, what's the application or solution you build with that data, and how do you get value by building algorithms that can really transform the meaning of that data to change how your business works? You know, that's what companies want. That's what the future is. So analytics in memory, certainly Spark shows that. That's good testimony, right? The in-processor you see in Silicon, you're gonna see some new stuff coming around from the big guys there. But, you know, I was talking to Dave Vellante and Jeff Kelly this morning, and we were saying, you know, if this donation and its acceleration, which seems like to be the angle here, you guys are trying to move the needle faster for customers. If that's going to be the kind of, you know, table stakes, you guys are putting that in the middle of the pile there for everyone to use, that means the game is somewhere else. Are the stakes in the infrastructure software, where's the next big wave? So the question is, is it infrastructure software or what is that next big wave? And I guess let me clarify your other point is the ability to participate is broader now. 15 years ago, early days when I was at J-BOSS, it was talking to enterprises and the fact that GPL, Apache license, was not the boogeyman, right? Fast forward to today, the conversation I'm having with customers is we're betting our business on this technology. How do we go about changing our policy so we can participate, right? We have another initiative called the Data Governance Initiative, folks like Etna, Target, right? Merck, these are mainstream enterprises who want to participate in addressing data governance needs for their business and for their industries because they are hiring people from the workforce who have those skills. They just expect that the new wave of developers expect what they would do. So is this move in your era, you agree it's an acceleration, right? This is about accelerating value for customers. Where is the uptake going to come from? Developers, enterprise developers, pure, I'd say pure cloud, born-in-the-cloud developers. Where do you guys see the uptake on this? Ben, other, license? I think it's across all of those spectrums and I mean, the people who have the biggest advantage are the born-in-the-cloud companies, right? Because everything is instrumented. You can get whatever you need, you can have your, whether you do it on OpenStack or you do it on Amazon, obviously we think you should use Cloud Foundry since it's in the industry standard paths, but it gives you this abstraction layer to build your applications and run them wherever you wanna run them. But those folks have it easy. At the same time, you've got lots of big legacy enterprises that wanna do stuff that's third generation, but they have to live with the fact that they still may even be on the mainframe. And that's the interesting opportunity, right? Is to figure out how you can get all that information from all those systems into the application and create value. And I think that's, again, that's one of the big features. I think 10X the value above my area, 100X the value is in the apps and the solutions and the sooner those can get created, the easier you can make it, the more self-service you can make it. We gotta give props to Jeff Kelly two years ago, he called, the practitioners will get the value will be on that science equation. So you definitely made that call. Okay, so we got about a minute left, I wanna get one more talking point in it. The big splash in the pool is certainly ODP. When the water kind of levels out, you still gotta compete and win. So talk about the competition, the landscape out there. What's the competitive landscape look like for you guys in this new reality going forward? You know, first of all, I know you hate this answer, but there's so much opportunity, right? I mean, if you add up all of the revenue of all of the companies in this space, it's still a tiny fraction of the revenue that's being spent on data, right? I mean, so what we focus on, at least a pivotal, is how to make our customers successful, right? I mean, we did announce our data number yesterday, it's bigger than anyone's data number, it's all product. I mean, it's not to me about that. What it's really about is go out, create value for the customer and win. And this partnership that we've built, that's the other thing we didn't talk a lot about it. We are really partnering with Hortonworks. We think they're the right partner for us. They're gonna leverage our data technologies on the top, we're gonna leverage their Hadoop distribution. They're doing engineering for us. They're the best engineering company, I think, in the space. And I think that's kinda how I see the market moving, right? Let's figure out ways to work together to move the market forward and benefit the customer. If we do that, we can all have wonderful IPOs, we can all be successful. There's plenty of fruit on the tree. Plenty of fruit on the tree, that's not the problem. Don't fight that one tree. Make the pie big and I'll take a slice. The pie is pretty big, and Jeff Kelly sides it big. I asked Andy Jassy, or Dave Vellante asked Andy Jassy at Amazon directly, and he said it's over a trillion dollar, damn. I mean, it's trillions of dollars, and it's not like him. It's a rounding error, we're talking about, some of the numbers, you know. Enabling the, 100 million is a rounding number, right? I mean, come on. Enable them to create creative applications, move the needle in their business, drive more revenue, better margins. That's what I'm focused on, is enabling our customers to do it. So final question to wrap it up, Sean, what do you tell the open source community? What does this mean to them? Obviously, Apache's impacted. It's gonna be a new ripple effect throughout the industry. Obviously, there's a lot of value, developers care about distribution, they care about profits, and they wanna make money, but they wanna do the right thing. So what's the message to the open source community? So we've been consistent at what works in the fact that we do all our work in Apache projects according to the Apache way, right? So frankly, our role we feel in this is to ensure that that process is respected, period. That's not negotiable from our perspective. So what we wanna do is we wanna ensure that specific versions of various Apache projects as that core gets more defined around that can be consumed easily downstream by the solutions that are being built on that. So you get a little more predictability on the consumption side. As well as, and frankly, I brought up Data Governance Initiative and even the folks that the customers are participating in this, is to enable them to participate in the production process effectively. While Apache's been around a while, not everybody kinda knows that process and I think it's incumbent upon us to help folks through that journey. Leo, final question for you. Paul Moritz and the Brain Trust at Pivotal, do they see a visibility clear line of sight on the horizontally scalable enterprise? Yeah, I mean, I think Paul's been an amazing leader. I think we're very lucky to have EMC, VMware, and GE as our parents. And you'll see us make a series of announcements about what we're doing with customers. And I think how we're helping customers change their business and how we're enabling them to use our stack of technology that includes Cloud Foundry as our PAS, our data services, married with Cloud Foundry and our Agile services is really bearing fruit. And just watch our numbers, no forward-looking statements. We've got a lot to prove like everyone else. And I think it's- The word trillion was kicked around, so we don't expect that. There you go. In revised earnings segment. There you go. And we have our earnings call next week. Yeah, exactly. But I just, they're just- We're all getting in trouble with it. Yeah, if I just watch, watch what we do. I mean, I think at the end of the day, I think if we do what we think we can do, I think people will be impressed. Guys, thanks so much for coming. I really appreciated the big announcement. Congratulations to all the people involved. Big names, again, IBM and the Century Lincoln, among others, Ryzen, good market basket of leaders. So congratulations. Yeah, Jim and I, Infosys, I'm trying to think of a few more because we didn't get all 15 of them, but they're all important. Yeah, big player. I mean, yeah, big player. A lot of stakes, a lot of risk here in terms of big market opportunity move forward. So okay, guys, thanks for coming. This is theCUBE, extracting the signal from the noise you're hearing right here on the open data platform. We'll be right back after the short break.

Good afternoon everyone welcome to the Green Mountain care board First item on the agenda is the executive director's report Susan Barrett. Thank you, Mr. Chair Couple of announcements and reminders first reminder, please sign in up front if you have not already We also have Recently posted our Green Mountain care board agendas or schedule for May I will let you know we have two meetings that we don't have a board meeting scheduled at this time But if we need to we will that's May 16th and May 23rd on May 2nd We're going to be hearing from our staff on the Green Mountain care board all-pair implementation update And then on May 9th, we're going to be hearing from vital on their budget in their presentation And then we have on May 30th of vital budget vote, which is a potential vote schedule and then we'll also have a I hope at that point May 30th the legislative session will be over and we can Present to you a legislative update from this session So again, this is posted on our website And the other Announcements and just update that I wanted to give to folks is last week. We were up in St. John's Berry For the day for our traveling board meeting I want to thank all the folks in St. John's Berry who taught us a lot about the great things that they're doing up there with their community and We will be out on the road again soon that is to be determined probably The fall and we haven't decided our next community But we really enjoyed getting out there and learning about the fine work. They're doing up there and With that I guess I'll just close and I want to thank both of our presenters today because they're The folks presenting now from out of Skutney are coming up from the Southern or bottom part of the state and then the FQHC folks are coming down from Burlington and taking time out of their day to To give us some finance updates on their institution. So I Appreciate that and wanted to thank them Thank You Susan Next item on the agenda are the minutes from last week's meeting April 18th Is there a motion? So moved Is there a second? Second, I will second because you were not there. Well, I can second something Okay, that's been moved to approve without any additions deletions are corrections any discussion Seeing none all in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Any opposed? Let the record show that it was a four to zero vote. I abstained well three to zero Because I wasn't okay. Okay So with that Susan would you like to introduce our guests? We have Dr. Joe Perez the president and CEO and CMO of Manus Kutney Hospital in Windsor, Vermont Then we also have with him David Sandville who is the chief financial officer for Manus Kutney Hospital and Health Center and the purpose of both of our presentations today is to get into the finance one-on-one for for this Presentation of a critical access hospital and then we'll hear from the FQHC Okay, great Thank you, Susan and thank you, Mr. Chairman and the rest of the board The opportunity to share some insights into the process implications Vermont's critical access hospital. I have a few introduction remarks, and then I'll hand it to Right-hand man Dave Sandville to take it from there I came to Manus Kutney five years ago and spent my entire career in large academic medical centers Despite being born in New Hampshire. I fled to DC and then to Boston for a number of years And all my experience was in PPS hospitals and at BRG driven world Came up to DHMC in 2001 and while my role there was largely clinical I did serve as the medical director of care management at DHMC focusing my time and attention on contracting issues with payers utilization review Working with basically doing the black bag job that no doctors ever want to do but for some perverse reason I enjoyed dealing with payers It was clear upon my arrival at Manus Kutney five years ago that there was an entire Paradigm of possible finance that I needed to digest After two years of kicking around Windsor and picking up snippets of cost reports and allowable costs As well as well with the DRG for this and not a DRG for this it's clear that I needed more exposure Thankfully David Sandville our CFO at Manus Kutney bring brought a wealth of experience Both based in New Hampshire and in Vermont in years of financial work at a number of Vermont hospitals We've CVMC and Gimbert. I've benefited greatly from working with Dave He serves as a resource for some of the other CFOs in Vermont hospitals as well and in New Hampshire for that matter a Few months ago. I sat down for an informal breakfast with Susan Barrett at Lou's In Hanover which I haven't had any courage to get to Lou's and handle breakfast And we discussed the black box that CAH financing can be for providers administrators and the public At that time I offered to come up and discuss the model that the board Really I offered Dave So here we are We'll focus broadly on CAH finance to start and then provide some real-world examples of the cost report And some of the inflationary pressures on Manus Kutney hospital and health center I hope this can be an engaging discussion for all for board members for members of the public in the audience And folks calling in and with that I'll hand it over to Dave So again, thank you for allowing us to come up and share some information with you I'm going to give What I consider to be a fairly high-level summary primarily cost-report But it does speak to a lot of other issues as well I'm happy to go down into the weeds with you, but I know you have an agenda And I'm happy to make questions at any point in any slide As you as the need arises So that's my presentation Yeah, the laptop see the laptop it's on this will work in my house I Otherwise this can become like an awli north presentation There's a light How's your senior dancing ability Actually saying fairly well So critical access hospitals, what are they and again, there's you know volumes of regulations and Standards relative to critical access hospitals But the short story is in 1989 it was federal legislation written to protect the livelihood of rural hospitals and And so they have a series of standards that relate to Qualifying for this one is your state must participate in the rural flexibility funding mechanisms to your hospital must be 35 miles away from the nearest other hospital and Of course, they have provided an exception on state-by-state To have as little as 15 miles between facilities depending on the terrain the weather and some other conditions So our state applied for a waiver to get down to 25 miles away And that was accepted by the federal government and so Qualified that amount of scuttle. There are conditions of participation The guide whether you can participate or not and the biggest one is you're only allowed to have 25 beds For acute and swing services and swing is subacute. We'll use that definition for the moment And you are allowed by statute to have one additional distinct part unit Whether it's a inpatient rehabilitation unit, which is what we have Or a psychiatric unit So you have 25 med surge beds for a simple definition and you're allowed to have up to one other Designated unit with up to 10 beds. So amount of scuttle. We have 25 med surge beds We should take care of acute and Subacute patients and then we have our 10 beds for the inpatient rehab unit We are audited and accredited by CMS through a contract with the state of Vermont In other words, a lot of the pps hospitals you'll you'll see and talk to you know They have joint commission come in we actually have the state of Vermont come in on behalf of CMS and they audit us against the conditions of participation that we were required to maintain our CH status and We're obligated to have 24-hour care in other words We must have an emergency room in order to be a CH will never find a CH with no emergency room Or the ability to provide care around the clock We also have one other standard that makes us a little unique and that is that our average length of stay for acute patients must be 96 hours or less and So we can have a patient that stays five days We can have a patient that stays two days, but at the end of the year the average when the cost report is filed And they come out and do a field audit is that we have an average of 96 hours or less and and that has recently manifested in a requirement that as soon as we determine a patient is not likely to be out within 96 hours from acute status that we begin looking at possibilities for transfer to someone like Dartmouth or another facility and So those are kind of the high-level Guidelines that drive who we are and what we do the purpose of the legislation was to again secure care in rural areas throughout America and I view I try to always find the simplest definition for everything Which annoys my wife quite often, but Insurance policy is the best term I can use for a good black house hospital cost-based Reimbursed it's an insurance policy if we get too busy a volume goes up We never really fully enjoy the upside of of being super busy Also, we never really feel the full pain of not being so busy because the cost report is Costs reimbursed on a per unit basis in its simplest form So if you're busier by definition your fixed costs get divided up between more units in your units of cost Go down if you're slow, then more cost gets attributed to each unit and your costs go up and Medicare pays cost like so We never really make the margin we would if we were a PPS hospital is your than expected and We never feel the full pain of having an off-year volume either We do feel some pain and some happiness, but not to the extent that others would find or experience At Mount Scania, we also offer in addition to acute inpatient rehab acute med surge and swing bed We also have patients who are waiting for nursing home placements, and we have some respite services We provide here and there, but they are a small single-digit percentage of our census Far as Mount Scania itself. We're about two percent of the Vermont hospital system budget about 30% of our business comes from across the river and We are involved with not only all of the Vermont Medicaid and exchange program But also most of the all of the New Hampshire Medicaid and most of the exchange programs there So whatever we have to know to operate here in Vermont. That's essentially double Because we're also having to be aware of what's going on in New Hampshire We are a member of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Obligated Group We are an affiliate and essentially we're wholly owned by Dartmouth-Hitchcock We are the number one recipient of transfers For acute rehab swing bed and and some acute We take over 500 admissions a year just from Dartmouth Primarily we focus on swing and rehab on an inpatient basis and Community care on an outpatient basis. We are the leader I believe the leader of all integration efforts at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health So everything that they want to do to better integrate with their affiliates Generally, we're ahead of the curve on that one whether it's group purchasing Whether it's financial application, whether it's clinical integration We're the ones and to be frank with you Joe having come from there and knowing many of the players there is a huge benefit For us getting through a lot of those processes And we are the only hospital member of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock health system across the river So that causes some unique rungs within the overall system because they are different for us I want to talk a little bit about where funding comes from for us So the large blue slice of pie is Net patient service revenue. So that is what we actually get paid for taking care of patients When I did this presentation for one care of Vermont or parts of this presentation for one care of Vermont a few years ago that 85 was 80 or 89 and As I think we testified in our budget hearing last year The net patient service revenue pie is shrinking as a percentage And so we've had some relief over recent years with the meaningful use funding Coming from both the Medicaid and primarily the Medicare program But because we've run through our first several years on our EMR That's a diminishing return over time and will no longer subsidize operations and operating expenses We also have tried to maximize the opportunity with 340b Which also gets above the line Because that is allowing us to be able to provide the care that we provide to our community And you'll see the other one's grant revenue is a small slice other operating revenue, which includes 340b Catheteria is a rental Revenues that we have Contributions, donations, investment income, non-operating gains and losses. That's what contributes to our Our livelihood Just to roll on through this one We're within Our patient care world where is our our money come from on the acute and swing bed units 75 percent of our Revenue associated with Medicare patients 15 percent our Medicaid Commercial is nine percent and and self-pay is Essentially one percent when you move over to inpatient rehab That number for Medicare diminishes a bit and it goes down to 66 percent and nine percent for Medicaid 25 percent for commercial and outpatient you see the pie from Medicare shrinks even more down to 54 percent And and the reason we're showing this slide is later. We're going to talk a little bit about how cost reporting actually manifests itself onto the bottom line And you can see when we talk about aging population. That's that's what we're talking about with Medicare that we see Three quarters of our business on the inpatient side is associated with Medicare and as we move to Less intensive services that that percentage diminishes So number one myth about cahs is cahs are cost reimbursed. So they're all they always cover their costs And and I just want to spend a minute or two talking about that The first I have set this little grid That kind of helps us kind of walk through how we get paid By some large payer groups and for acute services the first row We get what I call cost light. So just because our accounts payable check Uh Clerk writes a check for a particular service Doesn't mean that that expense is going to be considered in a loud expense for Medicare An overwhelming majority of our expenses are accepted by Medicare well over 90 percent However, there are things that they find Unallowable Sometimes if we were to leverage the investment market and the treasury market for some Funding and some loans if they find in their determination that those interest costs are unnecessary to how we operate They will disallow interest costs. They will disallow certain supplies They will disallow any expense associated with a non-covered service So there is actually a fair amount of wrangling that goes on with our cost report to make sure We're getting all of our allowed expenses in And and wanting to not get audited by having issues of non-allowed costs within the cost report So when people say well, you get your cost. We don't actually get our cost. We get cost light For medicare acute, you know, we receive a per diem based on cost Medicaid we get a drg and ask both from mehampshire and vermont And for commercial most of our acute business is paid on a percent of charge And there are some ancillaries that are paid on a fee schedule basis For swing and I put slash sniff so skilled level of care as opposed to intermediate level of care like You see nursing homes offer mostly icf and some sniff Sticking to the sniff, which is a a significant amount of nursing effort Again, we get cost light paid on a per diem for medicare Medicaid really pays us about $240 a day on something that costs us over $800 a day And that we don't always get paid Commercial also if we have a contract negotiated from those services will pay us a percent of charges as well Rehab is paid on a cmg, which is the rehab version of a drg So if a patient comes in with certain demographic Scoring certain clinical scoring they translate that and say that's worth $14,000. We don't care what you do So whether we have them there for 10 days or 30 days We get that $14,000 And and that's from medicare We get a drg from medicare, which essentially works the same way This is what's wrong with the patient. This is the patient demographic and we're going to give you $14,000 and Take care of them till they're done And then commercial again is a percent of charge on an outpatient world So outpatient lab outpatient radiology outpatient general surgery or surgery We're again paid cost light from medicare We get an apc from both the montananscher medicare And we get a percent of charge and or some fee schedule work So some of our ancillary services radiology laboratory things like that Some of those contracts with payers are on a fixed amount per cpt So one thing you should know is that we're a non acronym board Okay, I apologize so far. We've we've had to figure out what cop is what law says what a dehog is So you got to tell us I've kind of rolled through that and I apologize. So so cop is conditions of participation Our accreditation standards Dehog is a Dartmouth Hitchcock obligated group. So it's it's the holy old entities that share liability And and resources The drg is is how inpatients are paid for many payers specifically for your pps hospitals Medicare and Medicaid And is a perspective payment system pps Where they give you a prospective payment and then they call it good So i'm not really sure how prospective that really is but that was the intent many years ago Uh From a physician and professional billing, uh, that's pretty much all fee schedule driven So it doesn't matter what we charge. We can pay an x amount for a certain payer for that certain cpt So what was the apc? apc is uh, oh wait spend years actually since I uh Ambulatory payment class. So an outpatient service is a cpt level you get paid. So if you run An x-ray 72140 cpt they give you 110 bucks every time you do that So on the swing Line um under medicare um The supplemental though will only go 21 days right the supplemental You're saying costs light, but once somebody is is past that 21 day period They don't pay anything that's no longer medically necessary Right. So if we kept somebody beyond Uh, uh a skilled level of care that is no longer medically necessarily don't pay us Okay, up to that point. There is no specific number of days associated We have swing patients who come in for three days. We have swing patients who who go to 100 days Depending on their condition and the treatment plan so They may determine it's not medically necessary, but if there isn't a nursing home willing to take that, uh person So a great question It's stay with us. Is it all free care? Uh, it's it's close to it the state of vermont did enact something in the medicaid program that if you Have not applied for long-term medicaid coverage i.e. nursing home coverage They will Honor that for 30 days while you go through the application process as a patient which we assist them with And so we'll get paid for those first 30 days that they're no longer covered by medicare And their level of care is below skilled And uh, and and so we really push to get that through in 30 days and to be frankly State of vermont has greatly improved their turnaround on those applications. So for the most part that works out pretty well for all involved Uh, and then we work to get them placed to a nursing home I also think is probably worthy Of mention is that many of the nursing homes now are reducing the percentages Of census associated with medicaid. So we are going to be seeing a backup We have seen some and and some patients are just difficult to place because of their clinical needs But we there is fewer and fewer beds available. There are fewer fewer beds available for medicaid patients as time goes on we had we had 2016 and 17 had two patients that each spent Well over 500 days in the hospital their medical problems had had largely resolved but significant mental health issues and And lack of social supports led to no nursing home in Uh, north of medicaid. So we take under these guys and eventually We did worry with discharge one and another gentleman died of a natural death in the hospital We're getting spent the last year and a half of his life. So it was right. We're we're seeing this now Those are good questions and I think they they are system issues Moving to the next slide A revenue source by reimbursement types. So this is kind of How do we get paid? Well, 42 percent of our total business is covered at cost 13 percent is medicaid is essentially On a fixed schedule and when you really think about it about 50 55 percent of our business is medicare and medicaid which pays us less than cost So I'll kind of segue back to the prior slide that ch has always get paid cost the better Is actually Not true So since since that really kind of Recaps what you did several slides back as far as your revenue stream by payer One of the questions that marine sent me since she couldn't be here today Is whether or not you could um provide us with a breakdown Of the operations contributions from each of those payers Because you could you could uh have identical revenue from A multiple sources, but depending on how that feeds through so You could be doing a lot less work for one piece of that revenue. So we're curious You know, basically this gets into the cost shift and other things Yes, it does. So maybe I'll go jump to the next slide so, um I did this overly simple but somewhat illustrative With example yesterday To kind of maybe speak to that point a bit and I don't know at what level She would like to talk about contribution to the operation by line of business by department. I'm not really sure Yeah, see what we don't see on here is your margin for each of these so you know It's it's one thing to have the percentage of revenue, but If you're not showing what that what that actually is bringing down to your bottom line I believe that on a payer basis we provide that already in our regular report team I'm happy to double check that but I believe That you that is viewable in our data submission to you folks right now I'm happy to Illustrate that differently or better If that would be a benefit Yeah, if you could just do a pie chart similar to The one that you did For revenue If you could do it, you know, take your total margin and break it out by payer Yep, I think we can probably come reasonably close to that without killing ourselves. So Okay, because i'm a finance guy So i'm happy to spend like four days in my office with a spreadsheet and make it super granular and super accurate But sometimes that doesn't help the story We don't want you to exhaust resources doing this. We're just If it's simple go ahead and do it Actually quite comfortable for me But I thank you for your concern So FY 2017 I just put this one example up that's it's fairly it's fairly accurate and and as a as a percentage of Of gross revenue what was medicare medicare commercial and south pay and what did we generate for total gross patient service revenue? And then what is our approximate reimbursement percentage on that gross revenue? and The resulting net patient service revenue of 47,382,000 And then I just kind of show I just to illustrate something very quickly. I took the same data So you've got this the The same gross total gross revenue to your earlier point And and I just tweaked it so that medicare went down her by a percentage point And commercial went up by a percentage point, you know, how does that change net revenue? Well, if it increases our net revenue By $426,000 And and the reason I put that out there is we could be just as busy this year as we were last year And do the same business and if no if fte's didn't change inflation didn't happen all that stuff Just by the nature of what somebody's covered with when they walk in the door Which obviously you can't control We'll swing money to our favor. And then on the next example, what I did is I took the original Example and I said, well, what if we lose 1% in in net return? And what does that mean? Well, that cost us about 650,000 dollars Again for doing the same business. So if medicare determines there's another Unallowed cost or we have we render the same care But some of it's considered non covered or not medically necessary or what have you and we lower our net return rate From 54 to 53 it cost us about 650,000 dollars to do the same business we did previously. Does that make sense? It does and while you're talking about the profit and loss another question for marine was Um, does your p&l capture the allowable cost and if it does is the difference between the interim payment then managed through the balance sheet Yes, so I'm going to talk about that. She has great questions because they match up with my slides, but But uh, all we record all expenses And we don't categorize them as unallowed until we put the cost report together So our p&l is all expenses We don't have little like, you know in radiology not non allowed radiology supplies And generally how medicare does it is they do it by a proration and appropriating funds across across the hospital the department What not and I think I'll speak a little bit to that in a minute So medicare's guiding principles for cost reports is CH receives 101 Percent of costs and I know you're thinking I thought you said you get cost light Well, it's 101 percent of what they allow to be cost But the sequestering that happened a few years ago took two percentage points off that so now we get 99 percent of cost Um allowable costs not actual costs. We've talked about that and and really they want to know That's the real definition of allowable costs. Again, if I were to oversimplify it is Are are the medicare beneficiaries getting benefit of that expense? And if if medicare feels like they're not Then that's an unallowable cost Part a benefits from medicare are part of the cost report part b services So some physician services in certain settings if we ran a dme clinic, which we don't Those types of things those will be carved out because they're paid on fee schedule and there is no settlement on cost And then just as a interesting Thing to consider because it'll be a little pertinent later in this presentation is We estimate that our fixed costs are about 87 percent And uh, I'm I'm going to take a little risk and say that many pps hospitals Depending on their size and their structure and the services they provide would run Two-thirds to three-quarters Would be fixed expense and the reason that's relevant And this is why the cost report based reimbursement works for a critical access hospital Is our end of patient care is very small And in order to run an emergency room 24 hours a day I would be lying to you if I said we had a patient in every hour every minute of every day an emergency room We have you know somewhere in the vicinity of about 30 down time in that department and that's probably far away Our our least productive department on a patient unit basis But the fact of the matter is we need to have somebody sitting at that desk We need to have a provider. We need to have a nurse 24 hours a day And we do our best to staff according to Historical usage we literally look at the time of day the number of admissions and where we should stack people Weekends versus weekdays nights versus mornings and we do the best job. We have we can do We have lower the FDs in that department to the lowest common denominator To meet the standard the reason this is relevant is when we talk about getting busier or less busy 87 percent of our costs are fixed so they don't change whether we're busy or we're not so busy And so that's why the cost report is a benefit to the critical access hospital If we did not have such high fixed costs or did not have a cost report It would be near impossible for us to recover You know our expenses When I was a Gifford I was a Gifford and converted us to a critical access hospital in 2001 the The drawdown of federal funds due to critical access was worth about 1.4 or 1.5 million dollars. So that's 18 years ago Um, I would estimate it now amount of scutney and if your number was probably more like a million there if I were to guess Um, now if I look at amount of scutney that drawdown is probably worth 2.5 million dollars So if we converted to a pps hospital We decide we want to operate at 30 beds and gave up our critical access hospital status It would probably cost us 2.5 million dollars right off the top So it's a pretty significant program And uh, which is why we spend a lot of time making sure we understand We don't want to put that at risk. It's it's a huge benefit to the community and to the state It does lower the cost shift significantly Uh, I will belabor this too too long I think the only acronym on this is md and that means doctor But uh what we do is we take all the expenses And we reclass any expenses to be in linemen of revenue We have revenue departments across many different lines of business So anybody who has an accounting background revenue falls expense expense falls revenue That's what we're doing here And uh we pull in uh what we call heart a cost Which are uh md time that is not associated with patient care Being a cmo for example heading up the quality committee things like that where there's no patient care Medicare allows us to carve that out and put that into our overhead We smush all of those together. That's a technical term smush Here and then we take all of the indirect costs like the cfo salary the human resource department And those costs get spread according to statistics across all of the revenue producing departments in worksheet b And then uh all revenues are brought in with their reclasses and we establish a cost to charge ratio So how much did it cost and how much did you uh Did you charge and a ratio was established for cost by department level and an Inpatient outpatient and at a facility level And so that is the driver of cost now all of those things that are unallowed all get carved out right here So they are not considered When medicare looks to see what is your cost as compared to charge ratio And the next page here Well, yeah, I won't be leaving this This is a sample inpatient settlement sheet where all allowed impatient costs are established here and then they are that's Divided by all inpatient days. So they come up with a per diem expense rate That per diem expense rate is then applied against the number of medicare days We add in the allowed costs for the ancillary services for those patients And we come up with a total cost of inpatient services There's a gross up which I won't take time to explain But it relates to our swing bed unit and how that interacts because we have swing bed patients in the same Area as inpatients. We don't say swing beds down that hallway and inpatients are down that hallway We try to push them together because we just for efficiency of nursing Assignments and and then they take out all the patients deductibles and co-pays Establish the cost that we should have been paid by medicare They add in any allowed expense for bad debts that we weren't paid by prior patients for medicare patients And they say and then they compare that against what we get paid all year And we either owe them or they owe us and we settle out And then we have the same calculation for swing And the same calculation for outpatient So before you before you start on this slide on the previous slide you had ccr Yes, cost to charge ratio. Okay Previous clear water rebound And so That's really they pay us all year at the rate they guess our costs are going to be at based on the prior year's cost And and then we settle up For a 9 30 year end we settle up We send in our reports on february 28th And generally they try to give us an interim settlement in april or may this year They were early it came in in april and they've established new rates From then on Effective of the next month And i'm going to skip this is the same essential math, but um What we do at a critical access hospital is we we have one of dante circles of hell And and that is five months after a year and we file our cost report. Well, that's great because you don't have to worry about it for a year Now that's not how it works. We have to test out their interim rate adjustments So when they give us our new rates for the year We have to make sure that we agree that those rates are at least reasonably close Otherwise, we're building a liability Or an overpayment that we have to reserve for immediately And we work those reserves on a monthly basis They give us a lump sum if they owed us money Or they've taken back money and uh, we we do multiple mini cost reports during the course of the year to make sure We are reserving appropriately on the balance sheet for what we expect to owe or what we expect to be paid later We do at least three a year If i had more time i would do four a year Because just keeps us right so we close our books september 30th We've got a cost report to determine if our reserve levels liability Or or receivable have all been Are all reasonably close for the final filing In feb on february 28th of the next year So there is a constant revision of our balance sheet entries And and balances throughout the year to make sure we're not taking risk And all of those adjustments run through our third party liability account which hits deductions from revenue On your on the p&l that you folks see for us Any questions on that before I roll? I haven't seen anybody quite pleased over yet So i'm glad you're enjoying it So again, this is our balance sheet management. We evaluate continuously on open years current years Generally we run two to three years behind on final settlement From medicare The audit process most years is a desk review. We send them our work papers And they review them and they give us a list of questions We answer them by email with some additional worksheets and they call it good Any adjustments that are found or made? This year we're we're blessed to have medicare actually come on site and they'll be doing not only this work But they'll also be counting how many physical beds do we have on our med surge unit? Do you really have 25? or less and So joe mentioned also inflation We we looked because as you both probably know we're we started our budget season and We looked at kind of a high level. These are our p&l line items that We we roll things up to internally and see how we're doing And looking at f y 18 expenses year to date And then looking at the this is through february 28th this data Um, we looked at our group purchasing We looked at wage studies. We got an initial look from our brokers on how benefits are going to change Utilities and and these are what we're expecting for inflation factors Relative to f y 19 budget and they're they're this assumes No change in f t e no change in volume it does Calculating raise of about three percent including market adjustments We are looking at some very Unfavorable workers comp increases again. We have a very small end. So we had two unfortunate cases that are lingering on our liability for workers comp and it's going to result in approximately 40 increase for us In fact while i'm here there's a we're meeting with the workers comp brokers Back at the shop We're assuming very tight increases for a traveler and staffing costs. We do share staff with darmuth not only mds and providers, but also some managers and So we we are looking at about a three three point five percent inflation For next year as we continue to go through the budget process that may get fine-tuned and maybe we'll beat it down to three But it's probably not going to change too far from that. Well, you're on that. That's all we prepared While you're on that slide Explain the bullet that assumes depreciation depreciation hitting annual expectations so every year We So this is what we're going to have for capital expenses And whether it's bricks and mortar or it's software or it's uh equipment for taking care of patients And every year we uh, we fall short of our goal for spending which maybe from your perspective is super good um from my perspective is a little bit concerning because we are We've had historically less than favorable financial results for say call the last 20 years And it's only recently we're enjoying some level of of success And i'm always fearful that we are not staying as current as we need to stay To maintain the quality of our work environment for our patients and our employees whether that's equipment Or or facility needs I really I always get a little bit concerned with that So what you're saying if you tie it back to the previous slide is that The bump the 68 348 bump and depreciation that you're anticipating for this year If you're having trouble meeting your 3.5 percent target then You would cut down on the additional investment in in uh Capital related items that would be one or yes What would be the other as you would look at well, I mean we've you know, it's kind of funny I was looking we're in touch process and you know, we look historically at what we've done and have those things worked out or not You know, but everybody had great cost savings ideas But then you kind of get a year or two out when you realize they didn't work the way they were supposed to or Maybe they put additional pressure on the system that you did not intend or expect and you have to back off of those things Generally speaking, I mean we have beat down our our interest expense We are on darkness group purchasing. We're not going to get lower prices that we're getting through there We've been very True with benefits we offer our folks and how we have structured Those benefits to make sure they get everything they need But that we're able to Get on that we are behind on labor Compared to the state our average wage and so we we have really We're not living, you know, fat dumb and happy on any one of those line items And we beat them down pretty aggressively every year To try to stay competitive and to do what needs to be done for the organization as well as to meet the state expectations so on the interest expense line where you have the Approximately 76,000 you've got the identical amount Um, I assume you must be paying down on principle. Does that mean that you would be I I have a really really good deal And uh darmeth was able to help us leverage that deal I have a fixed rate For infinity at this point Which anybody would die for right now And uh, and so, uh, we're we're not going to refinance So, uh, we have no plans to do any additional financing We may have a lease or two for a piece of equipment, but nothing material But but does that mean that you're never paying down the principle? You're just paying interest? Yes, we are okay, and that was the term of the note and It's actually so beneficial It's it would be ridiculous to pay it down Okay And with interest rates expected to rise that's probably a good position to be in we are in a great position In that regard and again that was something we were able to garner with our relationship with darmeth that we probably Would not have been able to get So you've talked about the expenses that you would look at to try to live within that inflationary target um If after all that Your next move would be to shift to commercial payers, correct? That's uh, generally how it's going to work out if we are unable to meet Your expectation from a budget submission standpoint and the needs of our board of trustees and doctors from here We're kind of juggling three sets of expectations You know and that's great when everything's going well and everybody's thinking the same way But we find ourselves this year going into the process saying boy, we have some divergent expectations On our facility and we're not entirely sure how we're going to make everybody So what's your trend line look like for that cost shift as far as a percentage of shift? Well, uh as of right now, it's too early in the budget for me to project that But going back over the last five years or so, I mean All right, is your cost shift staying stable or are you increasing your cost shift each year? We're increasing it. Uh, what I would call classified as slightly So, um, you know, we're we're really trying to bend Since I've been there been there five years now We're really trying to bend our pricing structure down into we're a little bit of what we are We're expensive on many issues and the items, uh, but um, we've been trying to bend that with our price increases Bend that down get warranty lined with the market And the advantage of being a hospital like we are for Black's hospital high Medicare Medicaid For a lot of services. It doesn't matter what I charge because those are, you know, heavily utilized by people who pay me fixed payments So when you're doing that analysis, you say you're expensive for what you're doing What benchmarks are you using? Who are you comparing yourself to? We have, um, uh, a piece of software that came with our EMR That gives us with about a one year lag National averages that come out of the Medicare gross charge Medpar data And uh, and then we also benchmark against Act 53 in some other world local regional We do secret shopper sometimes If we're looking at it, we have a patient complaint on a particular Uh, service, uh, we'll we'll check some websites and make some phone calls and see, you know, how how legitimate is this? We can't always fix that but it's good to know where you stand Are there particular services that you really feel you're out of line on or you know? We're actually a little bit low on inpatient if you look at Act 53. We're actually Pretty decent on most inpatient services Outpatient we struggle Because that's higher commercial so historically a lot of that got shifted And that's, you know, no one got where they are in the day This has been, you know, since DRGs and whatnot were introduced in the 1960s. This has been an ongoing Slot and so we're trying to do our best to As we perform a little better to Bend our price curve And try to keep ourselves ourselves competitive You know, I the simple example I gave a patient the other day was if 50 percent of the people who walked into Walmart to buy a toaster could get half price or less The toaster would be a lot more expensive next year And uh, it's no more complicated Yep, okay So, uh, one comment I think it's really the biggest bogey on the radar screen for critical access hospitals and for long That's how we reconcile our cost-based reimbursement with the all-payer model We haven't been able to get a straight answer from CMS for at least two years now that we've been fishing in that pond And I'm on the board of one care too and Have been trying to push some of our finance folks to also help answer that that question Um Right now the response from CMS is don't worry about it. It'll be fine. Just keep doing your cross report It won't be penalized based with fixed fixed payments fixed monthly payments through one care As you all know, we've got our toe in the water and Medicaid For my Medicaid next gen this year I will be working to nudge our board To agree to go to all all pre-risk programs for 2019 But we're flying blind on what that would mean for our Medicare cross report And I think anyone that tells you otherwise is Is At what type of time interviews intervals do you take an internal look? Um, especially if utilization is declining and saying are we the right size Do you do that annually or Right size as far as the services that we're offering correct. Yeah So I would I would say from my perspective daily Because we get a dashboard that comes desktop every day is how many patients have come through the clinics How many patients but there's got to be seasonality too. So yes, there is we spread our budget seasonally and Um The interesting thing is that on the inpatient side We we have generally over the last several years budgeted, you know, 19 to 20 average daily census for med surge And eight four for our rehab unit And we're pretty much right on those So we we've nailed that we don't have any variants We may have a day or two in a month that's low or whatever, but generally that's right on Emergency room has been fairly consistent over time Uh, they're you know, and you've heard so I won't go into it, but You know, we have, uh, you know providers who leave For whatever reason and if they're the only one of their kind which is pretty typical in a critical access hospital It puts a lot of pressure on us and all of a sudden now boy Are we the right size in our radiology lab because we lost that provider and their associated volume So, um, we do look at it We just had a meeting last week as part of our normal budget process Where we sit a number of senior managers and key managers in the room and we look at our foundational volume assumptions How are we doing in the clinic this year? How are we doing in inpatient? Are we meeting what we expected percentage of swing bed versus acute patients? We look at all of those things and arrive we look at three years data And we try to arrive at assumptions that will drive the rest of the budget And uh, but I guess to answer your question directly I literally look daily and if I see a trend that continues Then I grab the department head and we sit in the room and we figure it out um I think we right-sized when kevin donovan was here And we made some pretty significant adjustments. We closed our our nursing home We decided what we wanted to be when we grew up and that is community based care swing bed services community based inpatient and and rehab as a regional facility wish it is And and those have pretty much held true. We we haven't buried too far from that And uh, the volume is a little bit lighter in the clinics than we would have liked the last few years Because of provider transition and whatnot, but the rest of the hospital seems to be where it needs to be size-wise But I think it's a good question So you I think I heard the number 2.5 million would be What the loss to you would be if you lost the critical access designation All right If if I took that number and went against your gross revenue Would that percentage be similar to the other critical access hospitals in the state or is there A lot more intricacy that would have to be there is more intricacy But I think we could spend a lot of time on math and I don't think it's that bad a guess Mainly because one of the key drivers to that money coming in was physician practices being owned by the hospital And so since most of the smaller communities here, that's the model. That's the only model you're able to function because Docs aren't interested in hanging their own shingle in many cases That would be if they don't own as many Physician practices that number would be less relevant Okay questions from the board Well, thank you for the presentation and I oh as always I learned a ton and folks come in here and give us these deep dives So I have an economics background. So my world is yours is spreadsheets. Mine is incentives So I think about incentives all the time And I understand the motivation of critical access hospitals came about at a time when rural hospitals were closing and there was financial Insolvency and the need to have access to care in these in particular rural areas And but at the same time And I understand, you know, you talk about cost to light and the 99 percent reimbursement rate, but With a cost-based reimbursement, even if it's cost to light based reimbursement compared to a prospective payment system It seems to me there's less incentive to be cost effective or cost efficient as if you're in a different kind of payment model and in fact There is research out there. So I you know the geek is coming out of me but research out there that critical access hospitals are less cost efficient than similarly sized rural non critical access hospitals And in fact that the the cost inefficiencies get worse over time So if you look at one critical access hospital over time and you measure that but it actually, you know There's more cost inefficiencies over time So i'm wondering how do we balance or think about the incentives weighing the need to make sure that we have You know access to health care in these rural areas with also particularly as where we're moving to vermont with the all-pair model This need to be most cost effective cost efficient and really trying to make sure people are getting the right care at the right time At least cost away, so how do I grapple with that those incentives? I think I think with wide wide variation Just in the critical access hospitals in vermont Dave mentioned earlier we over the last five to six years we've figured versus Just prior to the dh affiliation in the years following that it's been a lot of time to figure out what we were going to be as an institution We We have a laser light focus on expense management. We look at our empty ease full empty ease for the institution Every week the spotlight is shown. I'm seeing we are responsible for his or her empty ease We don't have For the petings or neurosurgery or the other service lines that other hospitals can use to cover up their warts Which that's really been the model of small hospital finances recruit a few other peting surgeons and live high in the hog for a few years until They get tired of taking a call every other night and leave and then your finances crater I think you made a conscious effort to move away from that so The chairman mentioned you know if we can't stay with it, uh, you know Stay with it our our budget targets We can we don't have a service to cut we don't want to say Well, we're going to let those primary care doc We're going to let go of 1.5 judge surgeons that we have that manage our entire surgical population in our end of Windsor Kelly I think to get to your point there are ways that many hospitals cover up their their cost inefficiencies and it's with those hot low volume high reimbursement service lines We haven't had that luxury You know the hope is that any special service line that we get is with We have central coordination the dark pishcock to get a day of a surgeon or a day of an oncologist because that's what the volume That we see again in our part of Windsor county would would justify We gave up If you build it they will come model for for buying in in patient care because we burnt too many times And so I think that's at least from a scutiny. Yeah, we we are unable to cover up our our inefficient rewards You know, I had the story I tell and hold it at DH to the talk yesterday was Uh, someone went out on our so we have a very small supply chain department two two and a half people and they were out and Dave had to unload some trucks and Working the overnight shift on on saturday my chief operating officer, you know pushes wheelchairs around Without Asia We're pretty lean pretty flat And again, we've had to be that way because we haven't had the luxury of a repeated group or Specifically in our negative woods. There's a neurology neurosurgery group that helps keep the number of hospitals alive in the upper valley They they don't work with us God knows what historical reasons before I got there Um, and that's okay. I think it clarifies what we need to do each day on expense And I would love to tell those stories could be uh I I uh I know who took The words that always get banned me about budget season is very realizing deficiencies and um There actually was one more slide that for some reason did not get in the email that I that I sent you yesterday I know that's right. We have had a rough stop part of our affiliation with the Take advantage of the efficiencies gained by the impartial of these issues. So supply chain lab services radiology pharmacy Early in hr five big Some of our if not fixed costs, but they are high costs that never really go away We we have realized some substantial savings We've also So in our printed version of the slide decks, we do have the two pages that you don't have We have the inflation continued and then we have your challenges page, but since you said you were finished I figured we don't I do want to say one of the two I I've not seen what you have read and by the way, I do I know what it is and I'm very I'm very personal but um That that said, um one of the things and this is what I got to Gifford and and Sorry explain this to people they didn't get And um and I've gone through the same learning group with much of the management I'm out of scum But if you if you say I have I'm going to cut a hundred thousand dollars in expense that I had last year Okay, I don't care what it is paper clips people Benefits it doesn't matter if I cut a hundred thousand in theory I'm only getting $50,000 worth of benefit on that cut because I'm losing Medicare cost Which I think somewhat proves your point right so people like well I'm only getting half the game right for for doing the right thing. Why would I do that? But the the the other side of the coin is That you can unnecessarily inflate your expenses and not get the return also And it all boils down to Whether you're a good manager In a conscientious human being or you're not just like it is anywhere else in any other industry And I was I was showing joe yesterday on a related subject That when I got there, um, they had 10.8 fte's in the medical records departments We're currently operating at 5.2 We have better numbers better results Uh our quality is way out compared to where it was five or six years ago And and guess what I did I said I can cut these five fte's in a graduated process over the next two years While educating the base folks that I need to do the job So that they're more competent and more efficient and will leverage the technology We just put in we just spent three million dollars on And at the end of the day, you know, we cut hundreds of thousands of dollars from an overhead department With literally, uh, I would say no impact, but actually a better impact We're doing a much better job today than we were five or six years ago Um, I lost money on the cost report But at the end of the day I did the right thing and and now we don't even think about it. That's just the way we live and so Um, there's a company called ams that does a lot of productivity studies For hospitals healthcare in new england aren't early And we did a study with them a couple years ago and I looked at it read it laughed and threw it out because we were below them You know below staffing levels on virtually every single department Uh, and they'd say every single department and and I was like see, you know, but you could bring that to another hospital They might not have the same result At the end of the day it boils down to how does management want to run And and I'm happier to pay fewer people To do better work and pay them a little extra than having a lot of people unhappy doing poor work Let me just I'm going to put you a little bit on the spot here, but with a follow-up question. So, uh And I appreciate that you would be willing to make those choices In spite of the fact that you would lose money on your cost report and doing so I'm wondering what would be the metrics that you would use if you were if we were to reverse seats here And you were to be sitting here and looking at hospital budgets What are the metrics that we should be looking at as a board to identify the hospitals that are really cost-effective? What are those metrics to show cost efficiency? So My problem when I come to hearing here There we go My problem when I come to hearings here is is What you see is what you get with me for better or for worse Mike davis whenever he had something he couldn't figure out or wasn't sure he wanted to do the scratch and sniff on He called me because he knew I would just tell him what the deal was I come here as a cfo a consumer A taxpayer a parent I bring the whole you get all my baggage okay, uh, and uh If you know you said what things you look at well, you know, um, I think you spend a lot of time Looking at things you either can't change We can't change Um, I think there are some specific areas that I would look at Productivity would be clearly one of them. I don't think the submission that we provide you folks Speaks to that It's too high level. I don't think hospitals have the bandwidth Even uvm doesn't have the bandwidth to do a productivity study every year for you folks Um, so I think therein lies the problem Um, you know the only department that works for me directly I have clinical and financial departments that report to me The only department that I did not carve fte's out of in five years is the accounting department Because our recordings gone up Our reporting requirements have gone up and they've gone from six to 5.8 fte's over five years and and so my Most of me says well, I think there are some productivity things that could be looked at They get really cluegy in a ca h Because of the low end they're a little bit more relevant at uvm But I don't think any of us have the bandwidth to take on another 30 day stuff Which is really what would The two that we have done since I've been at mount escutney have been Shut somebody down for for a month To to produce the data Validate the data deal with the exceptions figure out what the right answer is and move on That's a big one And it's probably the best one, but I'm not sure any any of us could walk out alive when it was I think we would just be exhausted I think there are Opportunities, but they would need statewide opportunities credentialing enrollment costs. I mean things that have no value to a patient Or to a consumer and are just things we're doing because we have to do Um, and they don't nobody follows up. Nobody asks us. We keep producing the report Every every place I go to if you guys you guys look all about my age give or take and If you're young, well, we all know who ccr was so But you know my first thing I always inherited it every department every possible I've worked at except for amount of scutney actually and First thing I did was shut off all the green bar report I said print them just put them on the floor Because I want to see people actually looking at these things and if they're actually doing anything And if they actually have any benefit and anybody who didn't say i'm missing my green bar report in the 30 days We just stopped producing it because it's just a waste of time and money and resources and So, you know, I think I think you got to find five things to manage and management Price might be one productivity might be one I you know, I I had a document that I kicked around for 10 years here Unloaded at five years ago when I went to of these are five things I would do if I were in charge of the world relative to healthcare I had legislators come to my office and I spent two hours with them I said you can take 50 million out of this system like this and nobody would know Which is a good thing everybody would still get what they need and we get rid of the nonsense So I can tell you spent time with uh, joe wooden Yes Some would say too much time I spent 17 years of my life with him. Yes Thank you Any other questions If not, we'll open it up to the public Dale You're going to have to speak loud deal for them to hear you. Okay. Um, can you hear me now? Yes Okay I'm looking to see what page it is because the one the cost report continued allowable bad Yeah, 156,000 Do 93,000 And I was curious a little more What happened in terms of to Something changed and just because something changed in definition Or Yeah In this pretend these are actual real numbers from a prior year So it did go down from one year to the next and basically what we do is We take total deductibles and co-pays They were not paid by Medicare beneficiaries and any secondary insurance that they might have And uh, and then Medicare make sure we use good due process To build those to the patient and if they've gone so long then they like they allow that as a cost Okay, and year to year, you know, some people as like the The dual eligible so Medicare and Medicaid Folks, you know as as some of those programs have changed and covered more deductibles and co-pays for patients those numbers go down Likewise as those programs might get cut then those costs would go up. Can I do one quick follow-up? Sure Since it did go down. Did you also though feel that well feel is kind of subjective? Yeah, I guess I'm asking subjective Do you think the quality of care was also Something reflected and those patients that was helped in that way like the quality care went up for them So because they had better coverage, they received better or more services. Is that what you're saying? Doesn't happen to more services. Was it a better outcome? Yeah, I don't I don't think I could I could state that one way or the other I think our patient complaints and concerns has been pretty consistent year to year to year regardless of finances But And I usually do get involved in a lot of those complaints If you send somebody a bill and they have any problem at all, they're very apt to call I don't send them a bill. I might not hear from them But I generally will hear from them if they have any issue at all, whether it's the doctor or the nurse or the amount of the bill So they're pretty consistent the phones are pretty consistent with feedback So I don't have any sense that that has a Any effect on on the patient experience relative to care And I'll add to that Dale as a As a doc who sees patients that every encounter starts we are we're payer agnostic I Don't dig into the EMR to see who's paying for what that discussion does come up though It comes up if it's often patient driven if There's a recommendation for a CAT scan for an MRI often times patients that are to say I I've got I've got a significant co-pay or co-assurance or on a pocket maximum and then That does become part of the discussion on you know, what we do next But walking through the door walking into the patient room It's it's agnostic to start It's hard to find out in our EMR. It's very complicated. I don't know if I could figure out if someone was on Medicaid and Medicare at a glance It's challenging which is again from a physician perspective. I think is a good thing Other questions, Sam Mr. Chairman, I just got a comment a comment on that a question Comment is I've been in meetings like this since the middle 1980s Sorry, and it's the first This is one of the first presentations. I've ever heard that touched on what I think is Possibly the single most difficult problem that we have managing in healthcare in Vermont And that is what you're calling the High cost low volume sophisticated services and cover up the warts Um, I think that if the uh, that if this board is able to get at that issue that it will Succeed admirably and if it if not not Thank you. I just but my question is this the I'd like to just ask you whether if if you didn't have this requirement As part of the critical access hospital or what? formula That you had to have a 24 hour ER Would you have a 24 hour ER given your proximity to Dartmouth and given also the problem that And given also the problem that even if if your if your your er is open That unless the the problem is fairly minor And if it's a serious problem like a big car accident, so you're going to have to get to Dartmouth anyway So i'm just questioning whether you what you think about that and I'd also wonder if you would have any idea What percentage of the ambulance runs that operate in your area? Go to you as over against Dartmouth depending on what's in the ambulance So, uh, i'll start with the last point first, uh Our local EMS group has a few have a few conditions that are passed by Make this go straight to DH if there's a strong Um Suspicion important to keep stroke if there's significant polytrauma from say an accident on 91 That said one of my overnight shifts last summer we had a guy come in with a separate leg on a motorcycle accident number five I was dealing with that maybe not the best idea for an internist and But but otherwise ambulance companies bring to the closest available emergency room So we we get significant MIs we get less than catastrophic strokes We get folks that are accepted and what we do is we we triage them We start the necessary care and then if it's not something that we can turn around and we can be Then we do just we send them up to dh is a Very quick process But because we've had to keep our er open 24 hours a day seven days a week we had to invest In telehealth options. So if you're sick and come to our ed you get wheeled into one of our our Trauma rooms And you hit a red button that a big screen pops up and you have a An emergency room doc the emergency room nurse from dh to help with the benefit of that patient But we staff our emergency room with physicians assistants who work at concert with the folks from dh So again to get back to what davis saying earlier. We we've Shaved cost as much as we can and we could double our ER costs by putting in Emergency room doctors 247 and I know that some critical access hospitals in bravado have done that but given our volume Of 4700 to 5,000 ER visits a year the only way we keep that open Is by staffing with PA's and having telehealth support I've been an advocate for extending that to All of the affiliates with a dark fish cock as well because I think that makes sense I mean it my critical access hospital Should be able to get by with a well trained ED trained staff of PA's with telehealth backup, which is a lot to the A lot more affordable than board adopts And uh, I I agree with you. I I I think the the explosion of these high cost high tech high reimbursement procedures operating suites top to death the cost curve Happening on the picture lens and that's part of our our close to each affiliation's life is We don't have an ENT anymore and we don't have orthopedics anymore We don't do any OBGYN We moved services to To jump a fish pocket. I think it works because if you If you have those services you also pay those physicians And they can't I can't keep a cardiologist busy. I can't keep a joint surgeon busy enough Again, it'll cover up the warts for a few years, but eventually that tires and they come on And then you're right back where you started So as a follow-up to that question when you mentioned the 2.5 million dollar figure that you would lose What is that net of things that you wouldn't have to do? If you weren't a critical access hospital No, that would just be the loss of critical access hospital. That would be same businesses yesterday No cost based reimbursement so Say that uh, you were to lose your critical access status And you didn't have to do the things that were necessary to meet that status. What would the dollar figure then be? I off top my head. I couldn't tell you But you know emergency room is a subsidy if you want to think of it that way. Yep Primary care is a subsidy Most of the clinics are a subsidy Impatient is not a moneymaker Impatient rehab is break-even So you see it's a diminishing return very quickly and and and you know again we staff efficiently on impatient Because our census of 20 works for a 4 to 1 ratio a 5 to 1 ratio they devise nicely into 20 And you know, so there are areas that we've been as efficient as we can be Without putting patients at risk or staff at risk for that matter and If the numbers just happen to work out for us in a good way that being said You know, uh, it would be really hard for us to look at our Our Codry of services and say well, here's two we don't need or two we shouldn't have ER might be maybe the only one you could live to tell the story on There would be huge community Disappointment and I'm familiar with some other hospitals who have closed their ER and it's never gone well And some of them in fact have reopened But that's really the only obvious one that's not, you know, maybe we don't absolutely have to have that In the aco, you know a lot of the services being asked for the ER are subsidy based services In order to provide the care expected And and that's a problem. That's wrong for all of us. Yep Other questions or comments from the public Yes, just really quickly I wanted to say to the board that I had said we would get an american hospital Association person to come do some of this presentation And they declined to do that because they just don't testify at states, which I didn't realize was kind of a policy So I think that uh, dr. Paris and dave did an outstanding job explaining a complicated reimbursement apparatus So I thank them for their presentation. Um, I think they did an equally not better job than the aj people I was free Okay, with that I don't see any other thank you. Thank you very very much So Susan do you want to introduce our next segment our next lesson in health care financing comes to us From the fqhc the federally qualified health center We're going to hear from georgia maheris first Who is going to give us an introduction? and an overview and then we'll hear from allison caldera from the ceo Of community health centers of berlington and jave simons for cfo from the community health center of berlington So Thank you. Thank you for coming down from the berlin Thank you so much. Um, I'm going to do a brief introduction and then turn it over to allison and dave The information you actually want here I just want to know if we can send you over some additional slides that we're not going to put out that Just some background information before you walk. Um, and also, um, We view this as the start of a conversation So it's a bit higher level than the previous conversation But uh, similar to any cfo dave can go down any track you want any death you want Either now or in the future And additionally wants allison and dave are done. I'm going to talk a little bit about A hybrid which is an f2hc critical access hospital merge entity But I think it's better to talk about that after we have this part of the conversation Thanks Pointed to that laptop in the corner We are federally qualified health center We are the only federally qualified health center One of the things that I always think is interesting about the health center is how distinctive we are richly distinctive in a rural state uh, the health center is diverse Our main at our main facility and on riverside avenue 18 percent of all folks that walk in the door any given day are limited english speaking And that's pretty astonishing I think for For such a state as vermont We are also the only health care for the homeless federal grantee in the state of vermont We received that federal funding in 1988 And remained the only f2hc in the state of vermont that holds that funding Last year probably about 1500 people came through one of our eight doors and identified as being homeless Or marginally housed and as you'll see when we get a little bit further into the presentation that The needs of the homeless in the burlington area inform Our services, so that's one piece that really does distinguish us from the other f2hc The other piece that I think is always really important is that we serve The burlington area chitney county's other grand isle county serve 25 Of the state's population. We are the backbone safety net fqhc for a quarter of the state's population I like to think that I am uniquely qualified to talk about not all four decades But a good number of them and I think that one of the reasons that I really like to show this The slide is to really tell you that I I feel like I'm a first-hand witness To the power of what can happen when a federally qualified health center gets funded for the first time This is ongoing sustainable funding in the form of our grant When we first became a federally qualified health center in 1994 the grant that we got was $154,000 a year Now it's over three million dollars a year And we have earned that through competitive grants over the years and through demonstrating the needs of our community And demonstrating our ability to deliver So I think that the other piece that one thing I will say is mental health and substance abuse counseling If you look at we became integrated Around the third to fourth decade and we'll be talking a little bit more about that but that is also something that I think is Very unique to the health center But this trajectory of growth that you see as an fqhc here is very typical You start as a free clinic and then you grow over the years and you grow as an fqhc, but you grow The needs of the community As I said that we are virtually distinctive as an fqhc and I think a couple of things that A couple of things that I'm going to just pick out here because I think that it it again as an fqhc Really shows how to respond to the needs of the community and some of the more Robust programs that we have that may not be too familiar with I think the first and foremost is our access to At the health center. We have 2.5 fte's of psychiatrists. They serve all ages We have four psychiatric nurse practitioners our goal in the psychiatry program is Access every day And to meet that end we have to walk in access for psychiatry every day And I want you to think a little bit about that. I know that we've probably been hearing many things about lack of Access for mental health in the chitin county area that I want to be here to tell you That we certainly are creating access On a daily basis and I can tell you that people walk into the health center Who need a suicide plan a safety plan? And we are there to be able to support them and to be able to provide that help No small thing The other thing that I think is quite Different in that I will say that all fqhc's are required to provide dental services That's one of the services and our lengthy list of requirements as an fqhc Our dental program is Quite large and reflects the needs of the medicaid population in chitin county We have 7,000 dental patients 7,070 of those folks are Medicaid enrolled And probably would have difficulty finding particularly with adults Finding easy access to dental care in our region We also provide a school based dental center that's just for low income kids again That's something that's met that was built on the needs in the community I can tell you and who we started that clinic in 2004 I think there were a lot of us that were thinking why why do we need this there was It it didn't seem that Profound and I can tell you after that first year pulling thousands of little teeth In the burlington school district I think we all became converts And now we have over 700 kids that are being seen in that school based dental center And the beauty of this program is that the kids come into school And if they are not connected to a dental home If they are not receiving regular dental care, and if they are Medicaid enrolled in low income They are the only kids that are allowed into our clinic So if they are not receiving that care, they will be allowed into the clinic And I think the fact that there's over 700 of those kids speaks Quite soundly to the need that we have there So I thought that it might We can talk a little bit about how these programs are funded But I also think that it's important to talk about collaboration because that is a requirement Of a community health center and of an fqhc. We are required to collaborate collaborate We're required to be part of the community and be engaged and integrated with the community A really good example of this and I talked a little bit about our homeless program is that state of Vermont Several years ago in the chitin county area. I was finding that that they were providing motel vouchers For people who are homeless on cold nights. It's called the cold weather exception And these costs were very high in the chitin county area It was very clear that there needed to be not only was this a poor investment In terms of ending homelessness and to bringing people into care and treatment Which is really ultimately what someone needs Who's living on chronicling homeless and living on the street They need to have a low barrier warming shelter and a place to stop So they could get in off the street, but more or less if they could also be connected to services This is a better model So the health center and I can tell you five years ago I never would have dreamed that I was sitting there telling you that we would be One of the emergency larger emergency shelters in the city of Burlington Well during this last winter we housed 38 to 42 people a night in our low barrier warming shelter And this makes economic sense. We are contracting the state to deliver the service From November 1st to April 16th, and they're looking at this has been so successful. We're looking into a year-round Shelter We have a new medical respite partnership with the medical center hospital of Vermont This has been a Easy simple intervention, and I'm sure that it's not something maybe you hear very often the words easy and simple Well, I'm having to tell you there. This was easy and simple The hospital knew that they had folks that were languishing in hospital beds People that did not need to be in the hospital But could be discharged if they had a place to lay their head in a safe place to go They came to the health center. They came to Champlain housing trust, and they asked us to staff 24-7 for medical respite beds in a converted motel on Shelter Road called Bel Air And we now have a services contract with them and we provide 24-7 care And we have four people right now that are in those beds that would have been in the hospital We have folks that are currently homeless that had no place to prepare for colonoscopy Think about that you've ever had one Think about what you need in order to be able to prepare for colonoscopy Simple a bed and a bathroom people there to be able to take care of you. We can provide that I'll also tell you another just a quick story is that we had an outbreak of flu In the morning shelter and we literally were able to Put all these processes in motion and move out the person who had the confirmed cases of flu And move them into medical respite We had another gentleman who just walked into our safe harbor health center The other day who looked like he was yellow from head to toe Not unusual to see someone in who's been avoiding care And he came into the system Obviously with some sort of liver failure. We're able to put him in stabilize him and get him to medical respite All without getting into the hospital and for the cost of us the contract between us and the hospital right now is $50,000 a year Simple cost factor Yeah, right Pretty good. It's what an FQAC can do Um, the other thing I will talk a minute just about psychiatry because um One of the things that came to our attention About six or eight months ago was that the pediatricians in the community were facing long wait lists to get kids that they were caring for um psychiatric consults And since we were fortunate enough to be able to recruit a harder trained Psychiatrist who also provides care to all ages Once she came on board we started taking kids from that were not our patients Which is unusual for us But we decided that the community need was so dire that that was some place that we should step up to the plate That program is now now happening and the kids are getting consult and I understand it's working. Well I'm happy to come back and give you an update on that when we're a little further down the road We're also doing a pilot with vna Judy Peterson who is the cpo of the vna company Uh asking about How we could get some psychiatric care into people who were homebound People with chronic persistent mental illness Her staff are feeling overwhelmed dealing with the complex needs of these patients. We're now sending a psychiatrist Um, this is a community benefit program Funded by the community benefit to the vna and they pay us More I can we can stay tuned on that too, but again simple meeting the need One of the things that I felt was really very important to talk about and again, I can speak from first hand experience to this were The accountabilities and responsibilities and the compliance requirements of being an fqhc Uh as a person who used to do a lot of this regulatory reporting for the health center It is demanding it is robust and it is never ending We are required to write a grant It becomes come every year Every third year where we're required required to do a complete community needs assessment and basically it is competitive We can lose our grant We haven't and we won't But it is competitive So it's not something that you get the fqhc status and you can rest on your laurels Every every in between the three-year cycle of your competitive grant There is a in-person person site team that comes on site They audit your 19 program measures or your compliance manual and I believe that georgia has thoughtfully provided the compliance manual to you and uh Believe me they go through every everything that you do in Excruciating detail, I guess is the way that I'm putting As an example the last time that we had We had Several action items that we need to respond to things like our sites that were listed In the electronic handbooks We needed the sites were not correct the nursing homes were listed That was an action item And a compliance issue that they were not the right listing So it is that there's a lot of attention to detail that I do not think that people are quite aware of We have 16 required clinics with clinical quality measures that we must track We must report and we are benchmarked with other fqhc's in the state of Vermont and other fqhc's across the country The quality piece speaking of someone who's been part of fqhc for a long time Is becoming much more demanding and much more rigorous and we welcome that We are Really paying good attention to our reporting. We are checking the boxes We are a patient centered medical home level three at all of our sites I think that studies show that fqhc's provide excellent quality care We are happy to be benchmark to demonstrate this The other thing that I think is important is to understand the role of the board and the oversight that our community Majority board has yes, they need to be a majority of patients Yes, they need to reflect the community. There are some other courts in here too For instance, there is a requirement that limits the number of folks who can sit on your board Who get their income from health care? So we can't have a board of physicians We have to have a board that represents real patients from our community I think that's actually pretty remarkable When you consider how long this this model has been in place It's a it's a grassroots Look at how you assess community need Our board actually has control of details Like when are your hours? If I want to change hours at my Pearl Street Youth Health Center where at-risk kids are able to access walking care I just recently had to go to the board and explain why they made to change that The hours from 10 to 5 to 10 to 6 They had to approve that, you know why? Because if we are changing things that may Limit access in the community they want to know about it and they're in charge and again I think this is something that is Part of the model that binds all the FQHCs that I think is really important In terms of what we are accountable for So why? well I think one of the things that I can say and I think I can say this as a multi many generations frugal thrifty vermoner This saves money This is proven this is a model that I cannot tell you how many times that I have seen We had kept someone out of the hospital That our hours make it easy for someone who can't take paid time off of work can walk into access and primary care This is a investment that pays back And Georgia I think has some In the legislative day materials and other by state materials has some studies that just recently came out There was one I believe it was the journal public health Don't forget we're a major employer The health center employs over 300 people At eight different sites There isn't anyone in any one of our sites that earns under $15 an hour That is a commitment that we make to our community And the other piece says is that we got our start in the old north end of Burlington For those of you that are familiar with that area is one of the poorest areas in the state of Vermont We now have a beautiful facility there and we hire people from the neighborhood And people from all areas of chitin county It's important So I think I just wanted to say that you're designed to respond to and be part of the community we drive change from patient experience And we focus on reducing this barriers to care That is something that's shared every after you see mom And that is something that every after you have seen state of Vermont is responsible for So one of the things that I can tell you is that federal grants and expansion opportunities have been our life one at the health center for Certainly since the time that I've been there which has been over 20 years A way to grow your programs is through competitive grants and expansions These are competitive. We compete not only in Vermont. We compete across the country In 2009 The health center was the recipient of a 10.9 million dollar grant That allowed us to rebuild our building on Riverside Avenue from the ground up That was one of the most competitive fqhc grants that I've ever been I've ever participated in I believe my memory serves me. I think there were only 60 across the country And there were something like six or 800 competitive applications But we're competitive because of the needs that are demonstrated in chitney county The diversity the needs of the homeless They'll lack of access to care things like 7000 dental units that need access We can make the case and that's why our our grant has grown from 154,000 to over 3 million million dollars over those years And I think that we're going to speak to the Medicaid reimbursement One of the things that I will say is that we seem to do spend a lot of time talking about this And I know that you and Dave will get into the exhaustive details about this But one of the things I'd like to say is that it's a great value And I think that that again, that's been treated by the studies and demonstrated by the Robustus of our program. We are specialty primary care I like the way that Dave describes him And he can I think he can speak to this very well being someone that had worked for Been part of a hospital system for many years is that we are midway between Typical primary care and hospital We're required to take people who walk in an emergency But if someone walk in with an abscess in their duty Well, we need to take care of them. We can't just send them away This is proud of our accountability One of the things that maybe is not always common knowledge in the fact that we are all of our employees at The community health centers in Maryland and all of QHCs are considered federal employees Uh, at the health center, we have an OB and prenatal care program that cares for Let's say about 160 medically underserved women 70 percent of them are refugees Many of these are women that need access to support services that we provide I know example of a woman that has kids at foster care Someone who's coming out of our opioid addiction treatment program Someone who has complex mental health issues It's important that we provide a reprogram OB malpractice insurance is extremely expensive We are able to provide this service because we get FTCA malpractice insurance to the federal government Do you know how that would compare to what others would be paying? Is it a Georgia saying over $400,000 a year and I think when the last time we looked at that that seems about right I can get you that number for sure, but It would be out of reach for us And access to 340 b again day will speak It directly to what that means in terms of our closing the gaps that we have But We gave 3.3 million dollars in savings from the 340 b directly back to patients in 2017 Is that 3.3 your total savings or using some of the uh, that's just to the patient That's just what went to the patient. So you're using it as part of your revenue stream. Yes They will give you the numbers about that and go through that. Okay. This is this is in savings to the patient Imagine this this is a patient that has no coverage in their medicare recipient. That's in the door This is someone that does not have coverage for a particular Prescription, this is someone who is uninsured or that lacks the prescription coverage. This is someone that was able to access prescriptions through that program When we asked for this number, I'll tell you we were surprised This is significant Now but now the good stuff Uh, you know, I don't have fancy slides like Dave did but Well, basically what we do is show that 71 percent of our income does come from patient revenues Have that mix. It's basically 36 percent is Medicaid 27 percent is Medicare 34 percent is commercial insurance self-pay or basically uninsured patients And Dave can I ask you the same question that we asked the critical access hospital? Do you have information that would show what what that is for your margin at the center in a sense? Yes, okay What we do is we look at our pps rate. Our pps rate was actually established by this effect in 1999 It was put into effect in 2002 What we look at is how much that reimburses compared to our encounter rate Everything that we do is based on an encounter rate For the most part labs are excluded from that dental is excluded from that from the medical side to behavioral health side It is long encounter rate base What we look at is we're using our cost report We file we look at what our cost is for providing each encounter and we look at what we're getting for a pps rate So in this case for Medicaid, we're getting about 84 cents for on every dollar that we spend in reimbursement for that For on the we if you look at Medicare We're getting about 80 cents on the dollar for reimbursement and on the commercial insurances We only get about 56 cents on the dollar for reimbursement. This is where all of our funding is coming from As far as our patient income and what that then does it says that really we don't get in bottom line Or an operating margin of money or payers this way We take a loss in everything that we do Uh the south pay pro game the three percent Those most of us are on the slide. Those are uninsured patients are usually 200 of poverty or less Or we just charge a nominal fee So In that sense, no, we don't really have any margin that we're getting from this So the question is how do we get reversed or how do we get paid? How do you help me understand that commercial line? The partial line. Yeah, we are just like We get pts for medicare we get medic pts for medicaid But on the commercial line is just like as dave sample talked about we get the fee schedule This is a physician fee schedule. Those are set by the commercial insurances Sometimes they increase them sometimes they don't this year We haven't gotten any increases from any of the commercial insurances So we are stuck with whatever they decide is going to be the basically what they're willing to pay us And that's only about 56 cents on the dollar But we cost us to provide that service Do you know if you're getting the same reimbursements as others who are providing the same service? I can't say for sure because those are kept confidential But my understanding is that I think they're all pretty common to the same rate For blue cross especially Okay, and One of the things that we have found over the past few years two years is that our mix has changed tremendously With the couple new practices that have part become part of the fqhc Our blue cross our commercial base is growing considerably and that's actually hurting us financially It's a nice tab of distributed amongst different payers, but financially it's actually hindering us to some extent So how we close the gap between 21 percent Here the 71 percent the 90 percent 16 percent of it comes from our federal grants 12 percent of that is our federal grants That's the 3 million that also spoke about We have 2 percent on our state grants the state grants are primarily focused on specific programs One of those would be the warming shelter or we also have A path grant for our homeless program and that so those are specific to certain types of programs that we provide Private grants those are mainly items Like the uvm united away Blueprint and mat money for our opiate program and what we get for blueprint is now 4 percent of our budget 340b is now making up 8 percent of our budget This is what's really helping us more than anything is the 340b program The 8 percent is our share of what we're collecting on the 340b program not what we're giving to the patients So that's almost about 1.8 million dollars And that other is just kind of missing Your 70 30 split between the grants and the revenues from the traditional streams is that Typical of all fqhc's are just yours I think you will well each state to them varies tremendously on what you see and what they are getting for reimbursement I know that we have heard of some fqhc's that are relying on 40 percent of their interest on the 340b We also know that we have there are other states that are paying above the cost of Providing the care for the Medicaid program because they are looking more to pushing money into primary care to get it to expand So I think it's all going to vary depending on where you thought what state you're in and where you're located But what about here in vermont? Is it pretty typical? I think there may be some and georgia may speak to this too But I think there's also some of the newer fqhc's and some of the smaller fqhc's have much greater reliance on the grant As well Yeah, that that's correct Frankly the fqhc's who are newer and also coincidentally smaller in the state of vermont the federal grant That's 12 for community health centers in burlington fill up to as much as 24 for them as part of their total so the Kind of growth trajectory that allison laid out is important in terms of the overall reimbursement mix and how much there How many how big their patient load is how fast they're able to grow to really balance the reimbursement compared to the other The programs and other funding sources they have are there rules that require you to Provide a percentage of the 340b to the consumer versus just trying to use it as a revenue stream No, the 340b program is governed by congress and her said actually implements and There are very few Rules about how the funds can be spent other than they must be spent to the benefit of patients Um, and there's some rules about what a patient is and how you qualify And there's significant additional separate oversight for the 340b program That you'd be happy to come back and talk with you about but it's But when dave talks about other states 40 340b is that because they're making the argument They're they're keeping all the 340b savings, but making the argument that The benefit to the consumer is through reduced prices In the operation of the fqhc by the fqhc retaining that revenue Is that a legitimate reason I would not say that that's a reason I have heard it could be a reason of For my understanding of those where the 340b program is a higher percentage of their overall Operating revenue is because for example, they don't have Medicaid expansion So they don't have that revenue stream coming in so they need to offset it with something else Yeah, and the other thing to keep in mind as well as the health center are Speaking about chd. We do not have an on-site pharmacy We are part of a pharmacy network with other fqhcs and in talking with some of the other Fqhcs across the country I think that With those 40% I think you might be talking about an fqhc that is the only pharmacy And they have in-house pharmacies in there in all of their fqhc So I think that may be part of the difference as well. Okay. Okay. Thank you The one thing I did want to point out to and again looking at how we got our payment in that A profactive memory so when I was in the hospital listening to cost shifting to that We have no ability to cost shift Medicaid and medicare they go up by the medicating medicare economic index every year. So this year it's a 1.9% increase Commercials have decided, you know, whether we get an increase or not this year to zero So effectively we've got a 1.2% increase in revenues that we have from the patient income We don't have anywhere we can cost shift. We can't adjust rates We can't do things that will cause us additional funding and that's where we have a very big difference and that's where we have to struggle I think So anyways, this is where we you know This is where we have to rely on the 340 b's or that are coming in When you look at inflation and things like that what we pay our staff and that it's limited We look at what we can generate based on these types of income increases and say how can we afford to do that? This is where we vary considerably from what So I think the other thing that I'm not sure that that people that you maybe hear too much about in terms of the fqhc's The community sport is really important to the health center When I talked about the building that we got the grant for we raised $700,000 to complete that building And that was that's a huge support to the health center Not to have To have a building that's completely paid for was really important to us This is this this is not an organization that wants to take on a lot of debt or can take on a lot of debt So that was very important For instance, I could give you another Example we get individual corporate donations. We just had fundraising event a couple of weeks ago that raised over $50,000 That's big money to us. That is very important for our bottom line Capital equipment again Capital equipment is something that is difficult for us to be able to afford We needed a panel rex at our school based dental center And which is a full view Of children's mouths Best quality of care to keep the kids at the at the dental center instead of losing them when you have to send them up to the Name facility that costs $35,000 that took us a couple of years But we got a private funder to pay for that So now we have a panel rex those kinds of things are really important. We are a united way recipient So again, that's probably that ranges depending on the year It's been it's probably about 50,000 sometimes as much as 75,000 depending on the grant year We also get Community benefit money from medical center hospital From the uvm medical center And right now we get a hundred thousand dollars in operating support That provides support to our sliding fee scale our medical sliding fee scale And we also I don't know if you're familiar with our beacon apartments project, which we launched again another partnership with Champlain housing trust and with the hospital a few years ago and this was 19 Apartments that literally lifted the most medically vulnerable chronically homeless folks off the streets of berlington and put them into apartments. It's called housing Housing first or maybe you've heard or seen the video Housing is healthcare. I don't know if you remember that but what was featured there was the beacon apartments And we are the service provider for beacon apartments That beacon apartments cost probably about 150,000 dollars a year to provide onsite supportive housing support to clients as you can imagine What are many complicated issues and need hands-on support? Uh, and we are getting a hundred thousand dollars a year to support that staffing at beacon apartments. So That community benefit money is really important to us And so I think that just to just to um because I do always like to get a report for innovation and What what I think the phc brings in terms of the community is that This is a well-developed safety net structure. It is highly regulated And we represent primary care access points all across the state There's now 170 of our monitors One of the highest percentages in the country Received their primary care from a federally qualified health center in Vermont I think that that in and of itself demonstrates the need And the need in different communities to be able to access care And if you think about the hospital think about the hospital is literally half a mile away From the community health center and we've grown to attract 30,000 patients over the years And that is because of the Welcoming aspect of the services that we provide It's important when you're the boots on the ground to be able to provide that welcoming access It is the best famous bedside manner of an FQHC I guess is the way I would put it So the other thing that I did want to say is that you know when we talk about finances There isn't a the old adage in the FQHC world to be seen one FQHC. Well, you've seen one FQHC Our finances our services How we look Is very very reflective of the community that we serve If you ask Sean Tester to come down here from Merlin counties We will have the same model the same structure the same compliance Accountabilities and probably someone finances, but we would look different many of the details would be different I just want you to keep that And I guess the final thing that I'd say is that I I really do view us as the boots on the ground In the battle for doctor reform and innovation and all the things that we are looking for Before remoders or the ones that have the patients coming in we have the ones that have the patients coming in and sitting in front So I always think that that's important But this is how we're keeping the doors open Okay, we'll open it up to questions from the board. Oh, George. Did you want to say something? The hybrid model the hybrid model. Yes, um, so, uh, just like a little You know the slides that you are not being projected. Do you have a Reference to the site visit protocol that Allison I would print that out for you, but I think I would have killed many many trees But I just couldn't give you all our paper links to that. But that just goes to the accountability And regularly for requirements for an F2H state Similarly, just to quick note about the federal malpractice Covers that Allison reference while this is an amazing benefit for a hospital center. You actually have to apply To maintain that separate and apart from your regular FQHC application status So there's a super special fun piece around maintaining that Right, so moving on to the FQHC credit glasses hospital model So this is a pretty unique hybrid. There are three of these in the country We have two in Vermont, Gifford and Springfield And the final one is mini Hamilton mini like the mouse not petite Which is in west virginia. The one in west virginia was created first So we were not first out of the gate on this And the the basic framework is that an FQHC serves as a parent to a critical access hospital There and it must be in that corporate structure because federal law around FQHC requires that the FQHC Board does not have anything governing it So this consumer board that Allison referenced is in charge of the entire corporate entity in the subway chamber forum Depending on which of the three of these hybrids you're looking at there is either Emerged corporate board over the entire structure or you might have a hospital board in addition to the parent company board And then there's some kind of complicated math and things like that. I will bore you with those details We can get therapy life So why would Any entities since there's only three of these right like what what makes it attractive So the the bottom line is that it Each of these organizations has Thought that they're able to address community needs more efficiently by having this hybrid model For mini Hamilton the triggering event was that their local hospital closed And so they were basically an hour and a half from any facility for services and the community thought that wasn't good enough um in vermont there is the extra layer of Really being able to have a primary care focus and focusing on population health management and being able to commit more fully in health care former initiatives for the state That are meaningful for the two that are here in general Each of the three said that the integration of services across the continuum of care They're able to maximize their return on investment regardless of funder the reimbursement model kind of this this combination of What both days talked about Really works for the rural communities that they're in And there are some specific efficiencies. So there's you know one c-suite for example in one h.r. Department Where previously there were two organizations with all of those complexities Some specific benefits that were identified Are that there's some unique recruitment and retention opportunities. So there's a different level of attractiveness Um for some clinicians knowing that they're coming into this model There's mobility for streamlined community hope planning and collaboration with their community So kind of merging the community benefits that a hop that a nonprofit hospital has to do with the mission of the fqhc Maintaining hospital access in that rural community And also really being able to improve both the mental health and rural health service delivery So those are not profit centers by any stretch of the imagination. So by combining this These three institutions Determined that they were able to really expand on those But there are some challenges there I guess Have eight masters. I know many masters that they're serving from a regulatory perspective Dual safety net designation is is real work that they have to be so they're from an fqhc side meeting the HRSA obligations From the critical access hospital. They're meeting the medicare obligations. They're meeting your obligations on the hospital side And so there's they kind of get the complexity of all of that But again on the whole the benefit has borne out for them and their boards The another challenge is that there's a little bit of a shifting pair mix. So for an fqhc The pair mix is tends to be dominated by medicated uninsured. That's kind of the bread and butter of why fqhc is there And for critical access hospital actually tends to be slightly more in the medicare side So there's some weird patient shifting that goes back and forth that just serves as an additional challenge Because of the complexity of the regulatory oversight, there's some duplications and quality standards that you may be familiar with I won't go into detail there, but There's just a lot more reporting on that end as well as the financial And I think the final challenge that was noted is No one knows what they are As an entity are you a hospital? Are you a health center? Are you a clinical office? What are you doing? So there's a lot of explaining what the heck they're doing to regulators to patients to folks they're recruiting in And also the fact that they can't actually be everything to all people. So there's The hybrid again has I think born out to be successful for these three organizations, but As different, you know hospitals are crazy's would think about moving into it It's it's not for the faint of heart to get in there Despite the fact that actually HRSA as a fqhc regulator is trying to encourage More critical access hospitals to go in this trajectory because they find it beneficial from their oversight perspective So I will stop there Great, we'll open it up to questions from the board first Just have a couple of quick ones The part of the slide there was a reference that the cost per patient Was 13 lower for medicaid Than vermont medicaid enrollees and and the footnote refers to a national study and I just wasn't clear Whether that 13 was a unique vermont statistic or it was the national statistic Yes, that's a unique vermont statistic is a national study of eight states one of which was in brahmat was one of those Yes And the other is and I remember when I first met you georgia that you talked about we did talk a little bit about the Malpractice coverage and it was I remember the number it was four hundred thousand dollars in savings That you told me way back when it seems, you know five months ago, but um I'm just wondering on the on the other side of that has that a malpractice insurance been utilized by you folks Uh, yes, it has It basically if if we get a malpractice suit or whatever it goes to the courts courts claim that we are a federal employee And that it goes to the federal courts claims Settlement at that point in time And that's it is a coverage. It's wonderful. We don't have to pay ground practice. We do have wrap around for any services We may provide Thank you. Okay other questions robin Georgia you sort of alluded to one of my questions, but i'm going to ask it just to clarify It sounds like the three-year community health needs assessment that an fqhc does is separate from the community health needs assessment that Hospital not private hospital would do We're getting smarter about that We do need to do um, we do For the past three years either I have or health center staffer has been involved in the community health benefit program at The community health needs assessment program at the hospital and as a matter of fact, we're going through that cycle again Um, we do do something separate But we have used that to inform us and I think it makes far more sense For all of us to be working together and working off that same news assessment So that's a great question. And yes, we're getting much smarter about that And do you think that's typical around the state or do you think that's more unique to chitin county? Or if you don't know, that's fine, too I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. It makes perfect sense. I would be surprised I think most of the fqhc is really doing works closely with the hospital great, um, and then my other question was um I was wondering if you could just talk a little bit about how you calculate the encounter rate I think that's based on a cost report, but I'm not positive about that. So if you could just talk a little bit It is based on cost report. It's not the same cost report that the hospitals do. It's not as complex as the 224 form Um, it is basically what we're doing. It's looking to split our cost between Programs the medical program for dental program and labs Labs are paid on a fee-for-service or fee scale basis rather than Part of the encounter rate But then it's just once we have the cost related to the medical and behavioral health and it's just right of our total number encounters Got it. Thank you Okay, other questions If not at this time, we'll open it up to the public for any questions or comments dale I just want to compliment the presentation It sort of sounds like your group of artists that work in healthcare and you're showing us What that creativity can do But I don't know if they're all artists that just happen to work in healthcare. So But I'm just I'm trying to compliment that what you've done is that innovative beyond that If I try to think in terms of What have you given back to community for the investment community gave you? What is your salary? I don't actually answer that that's more just high-level life I know there's workforce issues that we face But you didn't mention them and yet You're doing somehow standing work from people that have to be really good so Could you comment on that too, please? I yeah, I I yes, I would very much like to comment on that. I think that The health center is in a sweet spot in terms of recruitment and shape my family As a matter of fact, sometimes I feel a little embarrassed when I talk about recruiting a Harvard train psychiatrist Sitting next to Sean Tester at Nuremberg counties and as a matter of fact, we're talking a little bit more about what we can do to be able to offer that So support to the other FQHCs I think maybe you're asking in a way. Do I pay competitively? Yes But that's not why people yes, but not quite Close but not quite When you come to work for the health center first of all loan repayment and the fact that we can offer loan repayment Is very important. I have yet to talk to a psychiatric nurse practitioner psychiatrist dentist Or family practice physician physician or intern internist that we recruit That is not very interested in that and that's very important part of it Um, people come to work for the community health center and for FQHCs because of the work When you talk it actually struck a chord with me when you talked about some sort of artistry because I will tell you that This sounds like a business healthcare sounds like a business doesn't it? Well, I'm here to tell you that there is an art to win Without developing things like trusting relationships without developing things like bedside manner without understanding The needs and wants of the person that's in front of you and to be able to provide a non-judgmental And these are all things that we don't talk very much about But that is all part of what an FQHC brings to the table So when I recruit a physician or I recruit someone is someone who wants to talk about the joy of practice It's someone who gets excited About some of these programs. It's someone who gets really excited about saying I can change something I can do it quickly I'm not in a system that's going to slow me down And yes, we never quite seem to have enough money, but there is a camaraderie about it that I think is It keeps people inspired and motivated to do the work so I will tell you that it is kind of tough in terms of, you know, I just lost it I lost two nurses to the hospital. They paid $10 more an hour than what I can pay And yet I paid our rents $3 more than some of the other FQHCs are able to pay so It is a complicated recruitment environment But I'm not going to complain because I think my fellow FQHCs in the different in the rural environment probably have a far tougher than we do Thank you Yes, ham Of course, I wonder if you could ask the Erlington people where they stand on the question of Whether they're going to participate in the all-payer model, which is the centerpiece for reform here in the state shifting from in the The engine really is a shift from fee-for-service reimbursement to capitated reimbursement and the Single biggest blocker to that it seems to me right now is the fact that several FQ many of the FQHCs not all Staying out of that program and I'm curious what Burlington is going to be I'm happy to address that. It's him, right? Yeah, hi ham Sure, um last year, uh Last year the health center actually considered very carefully whether they're joining one care I think I can I can say that I was a very new CEO. We had just come on things were very tumultuous at the health center I think that we were in a Um, we needed to be able to do some internal investments I think we were looking at an an ancient electronic medical record and some other things that were A little bit more that we needed to attend to We certainly went through the entire process of one care But in the end decided that we really need needed a year of internal investment in getting things Situated before we felt ready to be able to take on the work of one care One thing I will say is that we are already around the table If you look at the collaborative efforts that are being done in the Burlington area As a matter of fact, we had staff people through the blueprint that actually started those collaborative efforts And we're we're still at the table. We're not I think doing anything different in terms of the collaborative efforts in terms of the actual care I think for us that was really a practical issue This year again I've signed on the line to be able to look at our attributed lives And for us it's the decision whether to go in and we'll be based on will it make our care better Are we going to be able to do we have the staff in place? Do we have assistance in place to be able to do the work? Well, because I think that's really that is really important to us that we do work well And really looking at it financially in the number of attributed lives I will tell you that one of the problems that we faced last year was the number of attributed lives It's quite different than the number of folks that we were caring for and since we're going to have to provide those services To everyone who walks in the door. We're not going to be able to discriminate I think that we needed to be able to have some time to think about how that would work So the answer is we absolutely consider it Not quite the full answer you wanted, I suspect One short pop considering participation for the 2019 fiscal budget 2019 You're not in any of the 17 or 18 I believe. No, we're not. How about 19? Yes, that's what I would. Yes, I asked for the modeling and I've signed the participation to be able to take a look at what that looks like And we fully intend to go through the process with one care to see where that leads us What's the total dollars on the community assessment that uvm? funds I'm sorry You're receiving a revenue stream from uvm The community benefit money. Yes 200,000 200. Yes, that's 100,000 dollars for the medical slide d scale and 100,000 dollars that helps subsidize That's what was somewhat confusing to me because the bullets were at the same port. So I wasn't sure if they Okay, great other questions. Yes I just like to ask a follow-up to the question about whether Community health center of Burlington was considering joining one carer one of the asio model Georgia, do you know if the what's happened to the other fqc's? I know what's happening with one of them My understanding is if not all the majority of the fqc's have similar to community health centers of Burlington Sign the participation agreement to go to the exercise. Um, however, I would note that Um The majority of fqc's are really in close collaboration with their local hospitals So to the extent that their hospitals are doing something or not doing something those conversations are ongoing And as important as the conversations we want to bear with all the other modeling Okay, other questions walter It's more of a rhetorical question Not a Specific one, but I I like this presentation and I want to thank you for it Some of the numbers here. I'm a health care activist and I hear a lot of numbers And one of the things is like the thousands of homeless people that come to to these fqc's And we struggle with trying to get health care for everyone And I'm just curious what kind of a society we have here and for us to think about it If so many thousands of promoters are homeless and have to go into Fqc's or places like that And the dental issue, you know Tens of thousands don't have dental care And what is it that we're that we're doing here where so many people Are homeless? I think it's something for us to think about When we deal with health care issues and all payer models and all that the real problem that you said is that it's Art I don't agree that health care is a business. I do agree that it's an art Having been through health care the business and barely survived it It isn't It's not a business. It's more of an you know an art dead side manner take care And it's always about the person that you're taking care of And again, I just want us to think about Those numbers that you quoted And thank you for those numbers Yeah, it's just more of a rhetorical question So I guess I guess maybe I'll ask a retort I thank you for that comment Maybe my rhetorical question back for everyone else and think about this What do you think your community would look like without a federal qualified health care that too? You're right. I agree with you Okay, other questions or comments from the public If not, I want to thank you for a great presentation Thank you very much for having us And we hope that you'll be back here Well before the year is out to give him an even better answer to his question Is there any old business to come before the board? Is there any new business to come before the board? If not, is there a motion to adjourn? I'll move to adjourn Second It's been moved and seconded to adjourn all those in favor signify by saying I I any opposed Thank you, everyone

The easiest thing to do is to buy a stock. The difficult thing to do is to know when to sell. Selling stocks is always tricky because a stock can always go up just after you sold it. The first discussed strategy, that looks towards fundamental indicators and uses fundamental analysis certainly helps in avoiding selling too early or too late. Another strategy is portfolio rebalancing that makes things much easier as you have to mechanically sell when something appreciates. The third strategy involves buying something much better, i.e. 50% better than the other portfolio holding. A better investing opportunity can always arise but you shouldn't trade too much around it. The fourth strategy is about using a stop loss. I discuss the pros and cons of using a stop loss. the fifth is not so much a strategy as the reaching of a goal, when you did it, sell your stocks and enjoy your life.

Today fellow investors, probably 99% of the investing videos you look of the investing articles you look at, you read are about what to buy, what is the best buying option, where to invest, what to do and so. However, probably even more important than what stock to buy is what and when to sell. Because knowing when to sell allows you to lock in the gains at the proper moment when those gains have to be locked in. Remember, stock markets go up and down. You want to lock your gains when the stock market goes up so that you avoid as much as possible the going down of it. Given that so many things constantly change in your market, interest rates, valuations, central banks printing money, central banks trimming their balance sheets, wars, crisis, recessions, it's very difficult to follow each and every step in order to know precisely when to sell what stock buy and so. However, I think there are five strategies that can help you very much, whether you're a trader or investor, in determining when it is the right time to sell a stock. The goal is of course to lower your risk and increase your return and selling helps especially to lower your risk when you are wrong and to increase your returns when you're right. So let's immediately start with the first strategy. The first strategy is always keep in mind why did you buy the stock in the first place. For example, if you buy a stock because the company is growing revenues at 20% per year and the stock grows at 20% per year and is expected to do so for the foreseeable future, then the reasons you bought the stock are still there even if after three years the stock is already up 100%. So you always have to look at the fundamentals. It doesn't have to be growth. It can be book value for example, price earnings ratios. I always like the example of Berkshire headway so let's look at that. Let's say you bought Berkshire in 2010 when its price to book value was 1.35. You considered it a safe investment as we all know that Buffett would immediately start buying back shares at 1.2 price to book value. On the selling side, you said no matter what happens, if the price to book value of Berkshire is 1.5, I will sell. So you would have bought in 2010 stock price around 100-120 thousand dollars and you would have sold in 2014 when the stock price reached 220 thousand. Then you would have bought again in 2015 when the stock price fell below 200 thousand and you would have sold again now when the stock price went above 250 thousand. So looking at fundamentals, looking at something in the business that has a straight line that is not so volatile as the stock market can really help in determining when to sell and when to buy. If you're an investor especially value investors have this really easy, you look at how undervalued the stock is, look at what are your expected returns which are usually a straight line and the stock price goes around that straight line. When it's much above that line, you sell when it's still below, you buy more. So having something fundamental, something business like really helps in lowering your risks and increase your returns. If we take a look at GoPro's stock price in the last few years, it's a clear example of how many investors get over excited about a stock and then don't sell at the right point. For example, if you bought GoPro in 2014 at 40 and you didn't sell at 86 just a few months later, kept it because you thought it's more and more valuable. Even if the price earnings ratio was 166 in 2014, you would now enjoy a loss of about 90 percent. So what a strategy that looks at fundamentals gives to an investor is discipline. No matter how exciting a stock can be, how overexcited can the market be about the stock, you simply sell when it's above your line and that discipline allows you to lower your risks and increase your returns. Of course, apart from fundamentals, there can be also other reasons to sell a stock. For example, you expect that a drug company releases a drug that will be approved and will really be a very positive drug for the company. That doesn't happen. Okay, then you sell, but then you know before you invest that your investment depends on a catalyst like the approval of a drug. So that's a situation where you know before investing, okay, I can lose so much if it goes bad, I can make so much money if it goes well. So that's also an approach to selling or buying a stock. The second strategy that helps in defining when to buy and sell is portfolio rebalancing. If you have a well-set portfolio, perhaps an all-weather portfolio, you know exactly how much risks each part of your portfolio carries. When, for example, the gold part of your portfolio, in this case here we have the Vanek Goldminers ETF, increases 100% and perhaps if it is 5% of your portfolio, now it is 10%, then you slowly trim it down to 5% in order to have equal portfolio risk reward allocations. If the 5% portfolio falls to 2.5%, you buy it up again to 5%. So portfolio rebalancing also allows for a simple straightforward strategy, keeps discipline and you simply move your pieces in your portfolio as your strategy commands. Not much thinking, no emotions and those no emotion strategies are perhaps the best strategies when it comes to investing. Another reason to rebalance can be because you have too much risk in one stock. For example, in this case is NetEase. Let's say you held 10 stocks in 2009 and one of those 10 stocks that you had 10% of it was NetEase. The stock price was 19, now it's 304. NetEase went up 15 fold, the stock market went up 3 fold, so now NetEase would be 35% of your portfolio. That's pretty high number to keep in one stock, so you might want to sell part of it in order to rebalance the risk of your portfolio. So rebalancing is a pretty straightforward, simple to use strategy. Again, if it's combined with the fundamental line, you can always rebalance around that fundamental line, around earnings, around valuations, buy more of the cheaper, better earning stock and sell the more expensive, over exciting stock. The third strategy why you could sell a stock is because there is something better out there. So for example, you have your own stocks and you find some stock or a stock became incredibly cheap that you have to sell something else. Now, if you would look, okay, which one is cheaper, which one is better, then you would trade, I think, in a day you would make 200 trades. That would eat up your returns just from transaction fees. So in order to avoid transaction fees, it's good to have a rule that tells you when to trade one stock for a better one. And who better to ask for such a rule than John Templeton. He had the rule that you exchange one portfolio holding for another only when it's 50% better than the other. Let's say we have two stocks where the true value is $100. Stock A trades at $50, stock B at $40. The difference now is $10, 10 divided by 40 is 25% so you don't sell. Let's say stock B trades at $50 now so it fell $10. The difference now is 20, 20 divided by 30 is 66%. In this case you sell A and buy B. So a simple rule like John Templeton's rule allows you to keep a cool mind and really mechanically adjust your portfolio holdings. The fourth strategy when to sell a stock is to use stop losses. A stop loss is an order when you say if a stock price falls to a certain level you automatically trigger a sale. So you protect yourself from the downside. Stop loss selling has good sides and bad sides. The good side is of course you're protected from the downside. The bad side is that the stock price can fall in between days much more than your stop loss is. So you're and then when the stop loss is triggered you sell at market. So you sell at what the market offers which could be much much lower than your stop loss. So that's one risk. The second risk is that you get your stop loss triggered and then the stop price goes up. For example those who bought Apple at $153 a week ago and put a stop loss in $150 let's say they bought the stock because they expect the new iPhone 8 to come out and the Apple stock to appreciate or they thought earnings would be good and the stock price will appreciate. If they bought it put a stop loss at $150 they would have sold at $150 and then when the earnings beat expectations they would have missed out of the outside. So their thinking was correct but the market irrationalities the market volatility pulled them out at the market at a loss. So that's again a risk of stop losses. On the positive side you can you really use stop losses as your main strategy where you invest and try to catch long-term trends. You invest in 10 trends and you make okay I can lose 2% per investment. So if nine of those trends go bad you lose 18% but if one goes well let's say they are long longer-term trends you can lose 18% but you make 100% on the good trend the trend you are caught. And then when the stop price that you nailed goes up up and up you make a trailing stop loss. So whenever that stock falls more than a few percentage point then you sell it. So a stop loss is a very very interesting strategy to automatically sell when a certain target is met and it should be studied to see if it fits your strategy your risk appetite risk reward appetite. An investor that never uses stop losses is a value investor because value investors like me they when the stock price falls we like to buy more. A trader would say we are crazy but each one of us has its own investing strategy. The fifth strategy is my favorite strategy when it comes to selling a stock and that involves selling a stock when you have reached your financial goal. That's the most beautiful reason to sell a stock. You can have I don't know a goal for traveling the world for buying a house for doing something with your life buying that old timer you really love when you were young retiring early something like that. So when you reach that goal then it's wise to sell stocks because stock prices are very very volatile and you might lose that goal which is something very very ugly. So when you have reached a goal you might want to think about selling stocks. When I was 22 years old I bought this boat for example from my gains later when I was 25 26 I sold my stocks to pay for my PhD a few years later I sold part of my holdings to move to London and search for a new better life. So in my 15 years investing career I have really had nice returns but every time that I reach a certain limit I prefer to sell a part of the portfolio in order to enjoy my life. I don't want to be the richest person in the cemetery as Steve Jobs would say I really like Buffett but I like Buffett for his annual returns. I don't want to be 87 and the richest person in the world. I would prefer to sacrifice a few millions when I'm 80 in order to enjoy a few thousands of 10 20 30 thousands when I'm 20 30 40 50. So I really think that having a clear goal in mind having a strategy is the best way to approach investing and the stock market can really help us in reaching that goal. At the end our life is not about money is not about investing returns and not about how big our portfolio is is about what we do with that portfolio. So I think now I'm again in the building part building phase of my portfolio so as soon as I reach a certain target I will again trim a little bit of it and do something nice with my family with my money. I wish the same for you. I wish that you reach your financial goals that investing in stocks perhaps even this channel helps you into reaching those financial goals and then selling your stocks or at least part of it in order to enjoy your life and leaving the full potential that your life offers. You don't want to die rich and I think you agree with that. So to conclude I think I have summarized the five main strategies when it comes to selling a stock and I think it can help each one of us to create really a clean strategy in relation to your risk reward appetite about what to do and how to go about selling because discipline is a key element in investing. The more disciplined you are the better will be your returns and the lower your risks. Thank you Prasan for your idea about the video as in this comment you asked about what is low what is high and how do you know when to sell a stock. If you have any comments please leave them below. If you have any video ideas please leave them below. The more your idea gets videos and likes from other watchers from other subscribers I'll soon or attend to that video. I like this interaction that we have here on the channel I think we are creating a community of investors where we learn from each other. I have learned so much from your comments that it really replaces a lot of my research that or it gives me ideas that I would never have gotten by myself so I am very very grateful and this is the greatest value that I can have on this channel and that is your comments and your idea sharing and your risk sharing and you're pointing out of oh Sven you're wrong here this is too risky or something like that so I really really thank you and I'm very grateful for each one of you that is watching. If you like the content please click like and I will see you in the next video.

Welcome to Brussels. Welcome to the status and strategy workshop. Summary of activities. So we are remembering, I think, the workshops, one in Istanbul, one of course the first workshop in Denmark at the Technical University. We had one in Barcelona, Guildford, this picture. Here we had the special session of the EWSHM conference, the European workshop on Structure Health Monitoring in Bilbao. We, when we are working, we are, I think, coming often across the web, the website, of course E-Cost and also the E-Cost website. But what is it about? But first, closer look to the workshops. We had the first workshop with 65 participants from 23 countries and the other workshops, second, third and fourth and fifth, around 40 participants from and yes, and around 20 countries. So this is our working mode and when we think we have about 130 participants, then it's approximately a third which is activated for each of the workshops. And country-wise, we have 27 countries. So there is around two-thirds or three-fifths of the countries who are at the moment associated to our cost action. It's this percentage which is involved. One important aspect is, I think, that we, for the fifth workshop, we did not have a management committee meeting. So we have reduced this in the second year of the action to one management committee meeting. But still, the number of participants stayed constant. So that's, I think, very important to, or it is an expression of getting the community going. First, we have to invest and in the way that the network needs really to come together and then it's a sign that that it now goes more easy. Okay, but what is it about? You have been seeing the progress report at month 24. That's how it is called. It's about objectives delivered with networking impact, dissemination and exploitation of action results. I think this is also a point we need to think about, but I think we just had a perfect input for that by the cost director and action successes. This is what should happen, but of course what we cannot enforce or work on really, we need to be free and open and then it's perfect if it happens. Okay, the objectives, I think this is rather aligned. We want to enhance the benefit of structural health monitoring and we want to apply decision analysis for that to assess the value of SHM before it is implemented and then we want to improve the design operation, life cycle integrity management of structures or any engineering systems for more cost efficient, reliable and safe strategies. So I think this is this point to the impact. This point to the point where we need to think about how to impact, how to show in, throughout our working groups. So then this is the objective and then there is, there's aims and specific aims and one aim is about the theoretical and methodological impact, framework, I'm sorry, the workshop is about impact here in the objectives. So it is the framework and then there is an associated specific aim, the documentation of this theoretical basis and that's basically done with the fact sheets in the workshop reports we have and of course on the website with the presentations and also within the action database and then we have a two step dissemination, we have internal dissemination, this goes especially to the database and then this is at the same time, this is our working base here, we are exchanging the documents, so this is for internal dissemination and internal working and then we have the, we have publications where we disseminated further to the community outside our action but first we need to work and I think it's also, it may be a good strategy if we are working step by step and coordinate with each other. So this is about the first aim which is associated to the objective, the second aim, this is about networking, collected expertise and again to the first aim it is how to utilize the framework for practical applications in all the variety of aspects involving the design and asset management for engineering systems or structures or infrastructure systems. So I think the main interaction here in the network is related to working group two, that's our biggest working group and here this is the communities we are building on and in the most basic distinction it is the SHM community and it is the structural reliability community. We want to utilize the framework, we have been working on that, we have been documenting the framework, we are developing test cases, we have developed a common language that goes to the glossary or what we, the aim of the glossary was and still is to have the most important underlying wording in it so we don't want any detailed wording and probably then it gets very complicated and can be also contradictory. So we need to have solid foundation also in the communication, this is what the glossary is about. So we have within our action in network and when we think of other networks then it's TU1406, Jose Matos is here today. I have also name tags but they are in my suitcase we can take the name tags in the lunch break and our dissemination channels it is again our website and the database. So this is about the objectives and there are more specific aims appropriate and efficient tools so this goes again to working group two and three. I think this is very central and challenging at the same time. Here we have the development of practical examples, I think this is our focus now. Also at this workshop I'm waiting for Jochen but we should show up soon I think Jochen Köhler. It is about the guidelines, I'm very happy that John joined today. So I think this is a good point in time to make plans for the standardization community but of course at the same time it's even more important to think about a draft guideline in the four JCSS and for practical examples. This is what we wrote in the normal random of understanding so that we have the basis and then that the standardization committees would be open. So if we have something and educational activities so this is also should be a focus in the second half of the action. We have not started that yet. So we are coming from the objectives to the deliverables. I think I mentioned them in every workshop opening that's what we are after. So it's dedicated dissemination activities that's our homepage so that goes to workshops and all activities we are organizing. A library of tools and algorithms we would like to have and then the both deliverables associated to standardization or a step before a guideline. One for the scientists and the probabilistic model code and one for the practitioners how to utilize the things we are doing here. So the action website is under development. I think you have noticed it's getting better and it will be further developed but I think we have quite comprehensively documented our events, the presentations and we have many, many videos of the workshops and presentations and of course we have our database developed. Dissemination activities we had five workshops, three special sessions. One was in the ICASP conference where we even went internationally. Of course we are going for international conferences but they should be in Europe or this should be our basis here for cost but of course we should also disseminate internationally. It goes to the special session at the EWSHM in Bilbao this year and this goes to the MSSE special session, a Rylem conference also this year in August. Seven scientific missions we have performed and we can find 30 publications. Okay for the library of tools and algorithms this is still under development and mainly we have collected fact sheets from the third and fourth and also the fifth workshop. Okay here I think when we have a closer look to standardization we can say that in our network there are representatives from all these organizations so this is from the networking side I think covered but the next steps are necessary and on the work on the guideline we have not started yet but maybe the work of the working groups could be associated to that in terms of we have a basis and we have material we can work with. Additional outputs and achievements I think this goes to the joint workshop in Zagreb which is five or six weeks right and associated to that a special issue, a journal issue on SHM value and performance assessment of existing structures and we have been working on the SDSM program because I think this is a very good tool the SDSMs. I think this is very central I will come back to that because we are supporting here young researchers and we are supporting capacity building and at the same time these people may not be so busy as very senior researchers so I think here we are investing in the right tool to scientifically accelerate activities and also we are there is some scientific resources we can activate with SDSMs we should also talk about what we have learned how a cost action works or a scientific networking program how does it work so it's not a research project no we don't have any money for supporting research but the way to work is crowd working so that's why we have the different levels of of organization so we have the steering committee we have the management committee the steering committee is less people and then we have the management committee which is more people and then we have the participants which is even even more people so all these people can do a small bit but we need to organize that and that's that's crowd working we need to find a specific topic I think a very good example is categorizations we do the categorization and then we are working with calls we are working with the network we are asking them for small contributions but the very many small contributions can then grow into something big so this is the way to work we work here with the network and we do crowd working okay deliverables so then I think this is also very important oh yeah it goes also to the point how we are working with the cost action so it is crowd working and I think we had two years time it is about having organized scientific support by using the cost action for national applications using the the topics there can be direct support I'm very happy to to provide or to support calls with letters of of intent or letters of support so this is another point how we are working so very important is here publications a cost publication I can say this again is that if there was at least two different cost countries involved where the authors are belonging to it's it doesn't work if just one author works in two cost countries that doesn't work but it must be two also two persons when you talk talk about horizon 2020 then we have one success the infrastructure Marie Curie itn is is funded and this was the proposal was submitted in the early early days of this cost action but the topic of the cost action I think John remembers that that entered the the application and that's that's why we listed it here and it may be may have been a part of of the evaluation and then I think we also had a little luck here that it was finally funded and then we have had two unsuccessful horizon 2020 proposals but I'm a little in doubt about these numbers here so we have listed three and it was the ones I knew of or I was involved in but I cannot imagine that a network of 130 participants across Europe just produces three proposals of horizon 2020 projects so this is what I cannot imagine and I think we all have to work here on hopefully communicating it whatever I think we should we should at least list the attempts this is not too too difficult and of course it would be very good if there was a successful proposal and we are disseminating this in our action network so that that all the people are motivated and in the end we will also profit from that because it is the action network is there to support and I think we are covering very many fields so yeah I would like to encourage the of course the proposal writing but also the open communication and the and finally then also the documentation okay networking so actually this is a picture of the first management committee meeting here in Brussels so and we could say we have really widened it's widened our network and the fifth workshop but but maybe that's a little camera trick oh there's Jochen hi welcome so I think this is also important to to have in the in the background what is the networking about it's of course about the integration of knowledge and experience of it's about the integration of different expertise it's not just research it should also be engineers and operators and maybe authorities working together the relevant oh it's relevant experts and relevance okay so yes and this is how we should utilize as the researchers our network it it is I think the operators and the authorities and senior industrial people who can advise us in which direction should go and I think this is the the point here about we should also ensure their contribution it's about innovation networking it's about innovation and communicating innovation I think Helder has done a very good job from right from the beginning so I'm looking forward to the continuation of that and networking is about distributed encourage across Europe and worldwide I think this is something we need to work on so putting a little more light on the individual points yeah I think we our network is is substantial here in Europe I think what is the maximum number of countries we can arise 36 okay we have 27 we have two requests one from Slovakia and one from Luxembourg so this will soon be 29 so I think this this is fine this is also fine this this number here it may grow a little we should be sure to we should make sure to involve any body who can who can contribute so if there was if there was a good contribution I think we should be very open and happy to involve these people we have even in the networking written but this is a memorandum of understanding paste and copy we have been writing that there is a highly specialized and thinly finely populated research discipline regarding methods and tools and yeah this is true and but we are very happy that in working group three there is about 30 people Eleni and Daniel so this is quite a network to work with this point we already took maybe this is interesting it's about 30 percent of the participants are affiliated with commercial research and engineering institutions and infrastructures owners operators and authorities so it's about one-third of the project network I think this this is still a good number this is fine but we could develop this here to 40 or 50 especially as we are after case studies we have also introduced to ensure that the framework is practically applicable and relevant an advisory board consisting of Helmut Wenzel Iga wanted to come but she wrote me an email today that she that she said we have Peter Hart from the German highway research institution and we have regular academic board meetings and their advice is documented in our database we could work on making that a little more visible this is what we will do generation of innovation so this goes to our innovation committee very active from the I think there was a document even for the first workshop and then the second there was a session and this also goes to the advice from the innovation committee to the SCSM and that has been realized so this is this very good activity okay I think we see here now that the activities we are organizing these workshops and special sessions in Europe and worldwide that these activities have can be associated to two different parts of the memorandum of understanding and what we are asked for it is about networking it's it's about the scientific plan we are working on so I think this is the what this slide is about international research community this is what we what we have achieved not to the extent we would like to achieve it we have included Australia as an international partner country we have this joint activity but we should focus here more and the extent of networking this was what we are asked for and I think this is very important for cost so for instance the SCSM three out of seven went to female participants four out of seven to early career investigators inclusive in its target countries there are quite a few here in our network and we even had two workshops okay we had we had one workshop in Turkey and then there will is one more planned here this year in Croatia and Zagreb okay impact so we are in point D I think until F it goes but impact is not it's one one very important thing we need to I think have the common understanding here this is why this is why I'm presenting this here so we have the categories scientific technological economic society and then time horizons achieved foreseen within two years to five years to ten and ten plus so where each of the picture stands for where this is a scientific impact this could be the technological impact we invent the wheel economic impact we may find already because the value of information of structural health monitoring is where can be tremendous and it is there it is well developed but nobody quantified the the the value of information of that yet and these numbers this is 18 31 or okay one percent but this is what we are after we want to show where structural health monitoring is extremely efficient and I think well 31 percent here in terms of risk and cost reduction this is quite a number and this is significant and of course we identify strategies which are not deficient okay and we are after societal impact and then I think this goes to the points the cost director did make which may be about life safety and I think this is also something to keep in mind we are asked for impact in these categories and I think we have I think we can cover all here to quite a large extent there is technological impacts also because this thinking of of very efficient SHM strategies this can also be done not scientifically but just in engineering and by by knowing what is the context what we would like to achieve and that goes to the integrity management and then there is there's very efficient technologies so that sets the context for technological impact but also for innovation I think in my mind this is this is perfect because many people are developing and without really knowing what it what the things they are doing and what they are very good at what is really good for and if we can provide this context here and we do provide it then this can have a tremendous technological impact and this should go to should boost innovation what did I wrote about the impacts so we for sure have scientific and also technological I think this was this was together here so scientific impact for quantifying the value of SHM and making the scientific fields accessible we have evidence of improved economic efficiency and we have quantified it and then we should go it should come out the technological the industrial impacts so that there should be new business opportunities for SMEs or for large enterprises and which should then lead to increased competitiveness and enhanced management of risks to individuals environment and economy so I think this goes very much to the societal level point e uh dissemination and exploitation of action results uh here I think we need to think more about what are the most efficient way efficient way of disseminating and also of of exploiting but of course we are in the first half and this should be more facilitated in the second half of the action success stories we have been asked to document breakthroughs scientific technological socioeconomic policy implementation is also a success story and capacity building meaning helping someone in the in in the action here participants to develop their professional capacities yeah maybe you will also say something to point E and F probably so that seems to be under development as I understood understood the cost director so this is very important that so I'm providing the context here in terms of the the progress report but we should also follow the latest developments and I think with setting up this cost action we we made a scientific breakthrough in the field of value of structural health monitoring analysis because we have we have a wide network it's it's a unique problem it's an unique project worldwide on this topic I think this is this something extremely extremely good already and success stories or impact I think we have the potential here for scientific socioeconomic breakthrough and because we are working with the quantification of risk reduction and cost reduction okay thank you for your attention this was to set the context and going through what we have achieved in the last two years thanks

All right, hey everybody, welcome back Facebook Live. And I know a lot of you are probably on break. So thanks for joining us. Some of you like me took last week off and are working this week, but I do have today and I am so excited to be here with Dr. Hadea. I will introduce him in just a minute, but just some housekeeping items. If you've been here before on my page, this is recorded so you can come back and listen if you've missed any pieces. And then it will also be on my YouTube channel, which is just under my name, Jill Carnahan. And there's loads and loads of great interview and free content there. So I would encourage you to go visit. If you like this interview, go see what else we have. Today is gonna be really, really exciting. And you're just gonna have to hang onto your brains because we're gonna go deep and into some of the technical aspects of neuropsychiatric illness and new frontiers in treatment. But just stay tuned. Dr. Bob Hadea is an expert leader in this field and I'm super excited. And I'm gonna be learning along with you all as well. So thanks for joining us. I'm gonna introduce Dr. Robert Hadea first here. He's been practicing at the cutting edge of psychiatry, clinical psychopharmacology and neuropsychiatry since 1979. He formally pioneered the use of functional medicine in these fields since 1996. And if I recall, Bob, I think you and I probably met through IFM some somehow along the way. I know you were teaching and I as well. And we were probably among the first to be certified. Yeah, he's a clinical professor of psychiatry at Georgetown University Medical Center where he's been awarded teacher of the psychoneuroimmunoendocrinology, say that three times fast. He's also the winner of prestigious Vincential Award at Georgetown and educator and faculty member at the Institute for Antidepressant Survival. I'm sorry, at the Institute for Functional Medicine. He is the author of three books, Understanding Biological Psychiatry, The Antidepressant Survival Guide and Depression and Advancing the Treatment Paradigm and the founder of Whole Psychiatry and Brain Recovery Center. He's editor, he's editor of one of my favorite journals, The Advances in Mind, Body Medicine and Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine. And he's been featured all over just such a well-known teacher, beloved by all. And you know, I love having people like you, Dr. Hideo on the podcast. Bob, thank you. Because I love, you bring this inquistiveness and curiosity and I come with the same thing where we're just looking for new things and answers. And I think that's why, compared to all of our allopathic colleagues who are still in the conventional paradigm, we were trained in this. It's given us an incredible strong foundation. But what we've done is we've asked more questions. We've been a little more curious and we're kind of on the edge sometimes, but the edge is where progress is happening, where change is being made and where you and I are seeing miracles. So thanks so much for joining us. I'm just delighted to have you here. Oh, it's great to be here, Jill. It's really a pleasure, really a pleasure. Thanks. But what I love to start, everybody knows, I love to know, why did you get into medicine? How did you ever get first, get connected to psychiatry? Tell me a little bit about your story and your journey here. That could take the whole hour. I'm still telling you. It was an accident, I was gonna be a surgeon and I hated psychiatry and my mentor actually said, we got a kid on the fourth floor who has abdominal pain. We can't explain where it is. I'm gonna teach you how to hypnotize him, go hypnotize him. Wow. I don't know how to hypnotize him. So he hypnotized me and he said, now go do it. So I went up and I hypnotize this little 10 years old or something like that. And I age regressed him to three. And then I was like, oh my God, I don't know how to get him back. So I improvised and brought him back and his pain went away and I was like, wow, I am blown away by the mind. I'm blown away. I will never, never be bored by this. So I went to my dean of my medical school and I said, hey, I'm switching from surgery to psychiatry and he called up Georgetown. He said, I got a guy here and I was in Georgetown and that was it. Did you always want to go into medicine? Did you have that heart from my young age? I was like, there was like a GPS signal in my brain. I didn't know why, but there was a GPS signal that it was medicine and that was it. Oh, I love that. I have the same way and I didn't even know because I was looking at acupuncture and chiropractic and all these alternatives as I thought. But there's this healer that kind of is inborn in us. And I love a part of it was that curiosity we talked about because we love to seek answers and we love to help people find answers in the journey. And even at that experience with a 10 year old boy, you took a totally unique route and probably helped him really to come to some. He should only know what he did for me, you know? He doesn't know, you know? No, yeah, someday maybe you'll meet him again. And then tell me more about the journey. So you got your residency and training in psychiatry and then did you go right into conventional psychiatry? What happened? So I was trained, you know, I went into conventional psychiatry. I would say that I have a high tolerance for not knowing, high tolerance for uncertainty, high tolerance for anxiety, you know, you're sitting in front of somebody and you don't know what the answer is. You have to tolerate the anxiety of not knowing. That's tough. So there were certain markers along the path in my career. So, you know, a woman who had panic disorder that was untreatable until I figured out that she had a B12 deficiency and then a panic went away. And then my own chronic fatigue syndrome that I got me into functional medicine. And then I was treating my patients. I was a psychopharmacologist, you know? And I was using a lot of meds and cognitive behavioral therapy, which was cutting edge at the time. And then when I got into functional medicine, I was blown away by the efficacy in my treatment-resistant patients. And particularly after my second book, which was a bestseller, then we had a flood of patients and I was treating everybody. They're all motivated through the functional medicine. They're all getting better. And then I thought everyone's getting better. I must be lying to myself. So I did a retrospective analysis of the patients. It was 23 patients over a period of about 18 months with treatment-resistant depression. And they all got better. These were severe depression with no medication changes, except for one patient. And then, you know, that was pretty astounding. And so really I switched. I still do some psychopharmacology. It's a useful tool, but it's way, way overused. And then I was been doing functional medicine pretty much. That's it since the late 90s. And then about two and a half years or so ago, I just really went on a learning quest and started to read about lasers. And I thought, gee, you know, I didn't know anything about lasers at the time. And people were doing some work with lasers. And I was blown away. I said, this could really help people, you know, and so I started studying lasers and then I bought a laser and then I, somewhere along the line, I said, well, I got to know where to apply the laser. Oh, I investigated QEGs and basically developed the method for which I use QEG-guided laser treatment of the brain. And we layer that on functional medicine along with hyperbaric oxygen, along with neurofeedback, some other medications that I wasn't using before for traumatic brain injury when needed. I like to avoid that. And so I've really come to a big change. It's a long way from where I started, but it's a big change. And now I can help a lot of people that I couldn't help before. So I love that. And if you're listening, we are going to dive into QEG. If you don't know what that is, we're going to dive into HBOT, which you probably don't know yet what that is. And we're going to dive into lasers. And I want to hear Dr. Hedaya tell us all about each of these things. And he's actually going to share a few cases. So stay tuned. Before we do, our common interest was functional medicine and both through our own journeys and illness, we kind of found that. And when did you first kind of come across functional medicine? You mentioned, do you mind telling just a little bit of your story with the fatigue and then how you got into functional medicine? Well, so I was actually doing, didn't know it was functional medicine or Jeff Bland was calling it, I think metabolic medicine. Yes. And then I wrote my first book and I had a chapter in which I had an acronym, ThinkMed, which was tumors and inflammation and et cetera, all the functional medicine nodes. And Jeff Bland saw it. And so he contacted me and he interviewed me. And then I finished my book and I was exhausted after my book. Oh yeah. And a nutritionist friend said, you, I think you're on the edge of chronic fatigue. So I tested my natural killer cells and my NK cell activity was low and I became very alarmed. And I was like, wow, I got to change my behaviors. I changed my diet, start exercising, supporting my drenals, et cetera. And I was recovered very quickly and then started to learn the functional medicine or metabolic medicine more formally, which was overwhelming because the amount of information was crazy. And then by, I think it was 99, 1999 and went to, I think it might've been the second IFMCP or AFMCP. I didn't get any edge. You were like the very first cohort. It was like 30 people. Yeah. It was unbelievable. It was truly a gift, truly a gift. What Jeff Bland has done is just phenomenal. Just phenomenal. It really is. And I remember the same journey for me is when I heard functional medicine, what is it? It's kind of like what my heart had always wanted to do all along, but I didn't know there was a name for it. So, and for those of you listening, if you know me, of course, hopefully you know what functional medicine is, but basically we're looking for root cause of disease and we're not throwing aside our medical training. We're both allopathic physicians and trained in the best medicine in our system right now for trauma and for these kinds of things. But I always say it's like our toolbox was just small enough to have, you know, medication surgeries and intervention, psychopharmacology, now our toolbox is much, much bigger. And some of the things you're going to talk about today are even more tools that I think, as we think outside the box, and even you and I started before we started recording, you're talking about how even supplements, nutrition, lifestyle, these are core functional medicine concepts, but now we have, you know, lasers, I have red light therapy here, I have PER math behind me. So those things, and then even dealing with childhood trauma and the limbic system activation, it goes so much broader than just even the functional medicines. Our toolbox just keeps getting bigger. It really does. And it has to because illness is becoming, in a certain sense, more complex. In a certain sense, we're really learning that most of the chronic illnesses have their origin in like really like one or two processes like insulin resistance, you know, it affects the whole body in all kinds of ways. Yes. When I remember really diving into teaching LPS endotoxemia, which is for those of you listening when the bacterial coating of the gut cross over into the immune system, this is probably the underlying factor and majority of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and mental illness, depression, anxiety, insomnia, bipolar, et cetera. So this whole end back to the gut and some of the founders function is and said, start with the gut. Well, they were right because a lot of our psychiatric illness starts with the gut. And of course there's a lot more, but What I'm gonna show you today is mind boggling. My mind has been turned inside out by what I'm gonna show you. I tell my wife, I say, honey, my mind is blown. I can't believe that I have practiced the psychiatric patients all this time and what I have been missing blows my mind, blows my mind. Oh, I am so excited to dive in. And I also just want to say to those listening if you don't know Dr. Hidayet, what I love he's humble, he is the most kind, generous kind of person you'd ever want to meet, but he is brilliant. You guys are in the presence of genius and I just have such great respect for you. I really mean that Bob, you've been an inspiration to me and I just feel honored to be your colleague and be in the circle. Well, let's kind of dive in and why don't you kind of define some of the first of all, tell us what is your practice kinds of patients that you see? And then let's define some of these things that you're using and then we can dive into the cases of how you're using them. Well, so, you know, I really see from 10 to 90, you know the primary issue for me is, look what functional medicine is complex and demanding, it's not easy. It's not swallow a pill and get better. Lifestyle change, it's supplements, it's exercise, you know, and it's organization of this and you need support and you need to find the resources for the testing and I'm very data driven. So I like to know what I'm doing. I don't like to guess, et cetera. So one of the things is, does the person have the support? Can they pull this thing off or not, you know? And that's very important. But for me, what I see is it's such a broad range because it's psychiatric. I see people with early cognitive decline, vascular dementia, Parkinson's disease, certain things I won't touch because I know I can't help ALS, for example. I don't, I can't do anything for that. And then the psychiatric problems from A to Z, really. It's, there's, along with that, as everybody really knows, come all the comorbidities like diabetes and hypertension. So I'm kind of an internist and now with COVID, I'm very involved with COVID. I've been working very intensively with the ICU docs at Cornell and Mount Sinai, which is quite a headache because they are so locked in. These are very bright people. They're very bright people. They're encyclopedic in their knowledge, but they don't think, most of them don't think. I always, I kind of joke that if they were on Apollo 13, they would not have come back. No, you're right. Cause you have this, I started with like, there's something unique that connects us in functional medicine and it's the curiosity and the willingness to go, you said it best. It's to go to that place of uncertainty. And I always say, what, number one, asking the question, why? Yeah, you have to just follow the evidence. Yes. Follow the data. That's all you have to go look for the truth. That's what you have to do. And you have to really, we were trained. I mean, I'm a very analytical left brain kind of person. I was an engineer background, but as I've grown into my career and what I do, I really tap into the right brain intuitive side because I feel like we can process millions of points of data in a split second with our subconscious versus the linear thinking. And it actually totally expands our ability to get new and creative answers to difficult problems. Don't you agree? Yeah. So what I find is, as I'm getting deeper into all of this stuff, my right brain is falling behind. Yeah. I know, right? It's not good. It's not good. Good. Well, this is great. So the kind of foundation of what you treat. And again, we're going to go to cases in a bit, but tell us a little about some of these new modalities because some of these terms, QEG, HBOT, lasers, what are they? Tell us what the, what are they need? Great. So QEG is quantitative EEG. So the EEG for people who don't know is basically where you put a cap on and it measures 19, you can do 139 measurements, but we use a 19 channel, which is what's used clinically. Most cases, some people use less and you're measuring the electricity at the surface of the brain in the different areas. So the frontal, the temporal, occipital, parietal areas of the brain and you're measuring them and comparing them with standard measurements, age, sex, et cetera. And then you see which areas of the brain are overactive and which are underactive. And then there are amazing mathematical calculations that have been done so that you can actually use the surface data to actually predict accurately what is happening with deeper structures in the brain and also with neuronal networks in the brain. So you can actually say, oh, this nerve tract is under functioning, it's under communicating or over communicating. They're both bad, they're both non-functional. And so with the QEG, you can actually know what's going on inside the brain better than an MRI. Now it is not for looking for tumors, this is a different, this is a functional test, but you can see actually how the brain is functioning at a very remarkably detailed level. I think the resolution is 21 cubic millimeters, 21 voxels, which is pretty good. It's not great, it could be better, but it's on par with MRI and PET actually. So a couple of questions and again I'm just coming as an ignorant because I don't know the details here, but how would this, first of all, some of us in mold and Lyman, these kind of chronic infection and toxic things are doing neuroquants, which are volume metrics of that. So just for people listening of the regions of the brain. So for example, hit the campuses blown up spherical and they give a volume that is age match. They say it's a shrunken atrophied or hypertrophied like inflamed. I have a feeling that that does not correlate completely. We really don't know how it correlates, but what's your thoughts on neuroquant compared to this accuracy? And if there's even value in neuroquant because I don't know what to make of it yet. Well, so it's a great question. So not a lot of patients, but in two patients, I have been able to have a neuroquant and compare it to the region and it actually correlates. Interesting. That's what I was thinking because I'm guessing it's hypo functioning in some of the atrophied areas. And then either it could be with inflammation, I'm assuming also could be like frontal lobe inflammation. So if you're atrophied, for example, then what you're gonna see is decreased function. And if you're hypertrophied, it's a decreased function or altered function, but the difference will be perhaps that you might see something that's called hypercoherence or hypercoherence, right? Overcoherence or undercoherence, meaning while the neurons communicating, we think of it waves in the ocean, right? You have waves in the ocean and you wanna accelerate a wave, then the next wave has to come at just the right time and it'll accelerate it, right? So if one neuron wants to talk to another neuron in a different part of the brain, it has to send its signal at just the right time and it has to arrive at just the right time in order to accentuate or cancel whatever is the intended effect, the wave at the other point. So if the waves are out of sync, then you have reduced communication either because of excessive wave activity or under activity, right? So on the, what I have found is that the areas that are disturbed on the neuroquant seem to correlate with the areas that are disturbed on the QEG. Okay, that's good, because that's again, I'm assuming this could, and I have seen some changes with treatment on the neuroquantz, which is exciting to see like a hippocampus, we say that hippocampus won't change, but I've seen them actually go from 40% to 68%. Well, if we have a chance, I'm gonna show you a woman's hippocampal change. Oh, good, I can't wait. So one of the thing on the QEGs, and again, just for myself and everybody listening, can you describe a little bit about the different waves and what they mean like beta, delta, gamma? Sure, sure, sure. So the waves up into categories, we give them silly names, right? And delta is, so the waves come when we talk about the frequency of the neurons, how they fire. When they fire one time per second, we say it's one hertz, because hertz is the guy that name the frequencies. So one hertz are neurons that fire one time per second, two hertz are neurons that fire two times per second, and we measure them, they can go up to hundreds of hertz in the brain, but we right now only have the capacity in at least in my clinical awareness of measuring maybe up to 40 hertz, okay? So the one to four hertz, one to four times per second are the delta. And the delta are kind of like unconscious processes. So very, like when you go into deep sleep, that's delta sleep, that's one to four hertz. Your neurons that are firing primarily are the ones that are firing one to four times, it's slower, right? It's only one to four times. Now, when we get to five to nine hertz is called theta. And the theta is really where you have a lot of the emotional regulation, right? So five to nine hertz, and that's where you find seizure activity, for example, typically in six and seven hertz. And then when you get to 10 or 11 hertz, we call that alpha, that's the frequency where you're kind of, you're aware of your internal environment, you're aware of the external environment, you're very relaxed, your meditators have a lot of alpha, right? And then when we go above alpha, we go to say 12 to 30, let's just say, that's beta, which is subdivided, but beta is firing, let's say 12 to 30 times per second. That's a lot faster. Now, if you just think about it, if you're trying to solve problems in your environment, you got to be really, really quick, you're gonna be doing a lot of beta. If you're anxious, you're gonna be doing a lot of beta, right? Yeah. So that's a kind of a broad assessment of these things. Oh, this is super helpful, Ginks, for the listeners. And then the other thing I was gonna ask you in a little sidetrack here, you've heard me talk about via light and it's kind of old school now, there's so many other things out there. I still like it and I have the alpha via light, so it's at that hurts. And for me, it helps me to focus and probably come down from my beta. Any thoughts on those? For people listening, this is a red light that actually has a prong that goes up your nose, so it hits through here and you can probably describe better what that does, Bob. And then it sits on the head and actually through the skull. What do you think about red light? Any thoughts on that? So, you know, the studies done by Henderson show that with a high-intensity laser, say 10 or 15 watts, only 2.4 to 2.9% of the light actually penetrates the skull and the meninges, et cetera. Without the hair, forget the hair, you gotta show it. So you're getting a very little amount of light. And when you're using something that say a quarter of a watt, not 10 watts or 15 watts, I wonder if it's penetrating the skull. And so the thought is because there are studies that show that there's efficacy, although I think a lot of them are done by the company. Yes, exactly. But they still show efficacy. So I wonder and people wonder if it's related to remote effects of the light, say on the blood or something like that. Now, when you talk about the light and the nose, there's still a lot of tissue that it has to go through. Yeah, there's a lot that has to go through, right? But, you know, so I don't have an answer. I'm not ready to say no, it's not valid. I can't say that, I just can't understand it. I totally understand. Now, what you're doing with lasers though, this is on another level, it's similar idea, right? But way more powerful. So tell us about the laser. It's not only more powerful, but it's just incredible. So tell us about the lasers. I want to hear about that. All right, I can't contain myself, sorry. I know, it doesn't mean either. I have to just show you, I'm just going to show you one slide here. I'm going to share my screen here, let's see. I think you should be able to do that. Here we go, I'm going to share my screen now, okay? Okay, so this here, wrong one, hang on. Sure. I'm sorry. Here it is, this should be it. There we go. Okay, so let me tell you about this guy. Okay. Okay, so this guy, so let me actually orient everybody first, okay? So anything that's gray is normal, okay? So basically you can see this guy's brain is completely normal, except he has a problem here and a problem here. What we see over here is another way of looking at connectivity in the brain. So this is the right side of the brain. This is the left side of the brain. And this is showing us that this part of the frontal cortex is over signaling and very inefficient to this part of the, probably the parietal or temporal, probably the parietal area, okay? So this is where this guy was. Now let me tell you about this guy. This is a guy who anybody would probably say he's a paranoid schizophrenic, okay? 24-year-old guy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, all right. So anyway, this guy. And Bob, real quick, are we looking at QEG data or forgive me for what kind of imaging is this? This is QEG data. So if you look at this here, this is the superior occipital fasciculus and this is the vertical, superior longitudinal fasciculus. This is the vertical occipital fasciculus here, okay? Now, this guy, basically his whole life was seeing people as if they were, let me just expand this more here, as if they were looking at him in a demeaning manner, okay? So he had a social phobia. Now, what happened here is when I looked up this tract here, it turns out that this tract modulates the emotional valence of faces, okay? And it also is involved in reading. So what we did, and this also is involved in facial recognition. Is that one of the superior lateral inferior sulcus or one of those guys that is, am I totally honest? Well, this isn't a sulcus. So this is connection between probably area 17 or 18 back here, Brodman area 17 or 18 and a part of the temporal lobe, which is emotional regulation, right? So the emotional and visual areas are talking to each other, but they're not talking well. This here is under connected. They're not communicating to each other, okay? This one here is the frontal. This is kind of where you're thinking, right? And this is also communicating poorly because it's over communicated. The equivalent of me yelling in your ear really loud. You wouldn't know what I was saying. You'd know I was talking. And this is the equivalent of me whispering. You maybe know I'm saying something, but you don't know what I'm saying. So they're both very inefficient. So what we did is this is again, layered on a functional medicine program is we, for example, he was very gluten intolerant, extremely gluten intolerant. And so we got him off gluten, got him off sugar, got him off dairy and put the laser right here and right here. And four treatments later, the problem's gone. Wow. Now here's the amazing thing. The amazing thing is he starts reporting that people like these visual distortions are disintegrating, that he starts to notice for the first time in his life that what he's seeing actually doesn't fit with the facts, like the person is talking nicely, but the face looks demeaning now. He's beginning to make that connection. It doesn't actually fit. And by a month after the treatment, his visual distortions melted away and were gone. Wow. So his social phobia and his anxiety, his paranoia is gone. Now, what I told him, I said to him, you know what, you're like a colorblind person. I wouldn't, if you were colorblind, I would not have you decorate my house. Yeah, exactly. I said, and you, you know, the way it's been for you your entire life is you can't really read faces. Yeah. You've been reading, misreading faces. Of course you're having social anxiety. Right. And you know, there's more complexity obviously to the case. So that's the specificity that I'm talking about. Now, this is mind boggling. It is. I'm just literally jaw drop going, this is spectacular. It reminds me of years and years ago, the man who mistook his wife for a hat. Right. And he didn't know that was he a neurologist, I believe. Now you're going to love this. Now you're going to love this. It turns out that when he was young, he started having seizures because when he started eating, I guess, well, it turns out he started having seizures too. So his mother figured out that dairy and gluten and sugar were a problem. So she got rid of those, the seizures went away, but his behavior became very difficult. And his mom was going through a tough time and she was aggressive with him. And she's a sweetheart of a woman. So it's not like she's an abuser or anything, she was irritable and temperamental, et cetera. And he became very frightened because he's a harm avoidant kind of guy. He's just kind of built that way. So he had trauma. Yeah. Now he's going through trauma therapy. Wow. So that, you know, we're, you know, dissolving that basic fundamental anxiety that he's been living with his whole life, you know. So, you know, there's lots of layers to this kind of thing. It's not just point the laser. It's not just functional medicine. It's also the trauma. Bob, I love this, because you're bringing together and for those of you listening, like gluten about, we always think of it as a gut effecting and causing celiac, but Bob and I know we see at least 50% neurological complications from gluten. So funny because many people just a taxia or even like you said, psychosis or other behavioral or psychiatric illnesses purely with no gut symptoms at all. Right. So this is the idea. And this kind of takes me back to my training when, you know, at 12 o'clock, you know, the doctors were saying, well, the explanation of mental illness is cognitive problems. And the one o'clock it's molecules and at two o'clock it's the mother and, you know, Freud and at three o'clock it's the family system. And I used to go like, what, who knows what, what is going on? And the answer is all of it's going on. Yes. The answer is it depends on the lens that you use. And you know, what, what, Mike, what level is your lens? How broad is your lens? How narrow is your lens? So we try in the whole psychiatry approach, we try to use many different lenses to identify the problem. So that's one example. Wow, that is mind blowing. I'd love to hear some more. I know you've got some cases. If you want to jump in and share a few, this is. Let me show you another one here. This is case, patient zero, okay? So after I got my QEG set up and everything else, my laser, and I knew how to use these things and everything, this woman comes to me actually six months before and I with mild cognitive impairment, temporal lobe seizure, which you didn't even know she's been having all her life. And, and then also prosopagnosis so she can't recognize faces for the last seven years. So I, she was in post-menopausal. I mean, there's a whole history. You know, she had one point was a drinker. She had it was exposed to some toxins, et cetera. But we did the whole thing and she was feeling so much better. But then I did a QEG and she was much better but she was not well. Yeah. And so this on the left is her QEG. Now we have a lot more information. What we see here, all this red area, all this red means that these cortical areas, the surface of the brain are overactive. Wow. Now what causes the brain to be overactive? It's a lack of energy because the brain uses most of its energy to stop firing. Okay, you need energy to inhibit the action potential. Yes. And then you withdraw that when you need to send out the signal. But basically most of the energy is spent stabilizing the brain. Okay, the brain is spent spending most of its energy inhibiting firing. So in this case, what you're looking at is a brain even though it's red is a brain that's firing wildly and out of control. And the area that's worst here in this woman who's about 57, I think is the hippocampus. Her hippocampus is totally very unstable. If you look down here, I don't know if you can enlarge this here. And I can't enlarge it. But the hippocampus here is 2.8 standard deviations from the norm. Wow. Okay, so that's pretty abnormal. And she was having cognitive problems. And what you see here is her thalamus in red that's also overactive. And you could see here the connectivity is disturbed, et cetera, right? Now this on the right is after, I think it was 17 treatments. This is at still at six hertz. The neuron population is firing six times per minute per second. And here's six times per second. And you can see a vast improvement in the surface. It's not normalized yet, but it did normalize. And you can see that her hippocampus here, these crosshairs are on the hippocampus is now 1.4 standard deviations from the norm. She's actually considered normal. And her memory did improve. Actually her seizures went away. And here's the mind boggler. This is the mind boggler. After her first laser treatment at T3 on the left side of her brain, her ability to recognize faces came back completely. So basically the neurons that are involved in facial recognition, there are a bunch of tracks but some of them go through the temporal lobe. The neurons that are involved were alive but kind of asleep. And so with the focus laser treatment, we basically delivered ATP energy to those neurons. This woman had her treatment, came back into my office 10 minutes later to schedule the next appointment. And she said, oh my God, I remember the face of the person that I worked with this morning and his wife and she had a mole on her face. And she went through the whole thing. And then we did a Cambridge Facial Recognition Test and she was normal on the test. Wow. And it's remained normal. It's remained normal. So this is one, another example of really, that's why I like using the QEG to focus. I am just blown away. I have a few practical questions. How long have you had the QEG equipment in that? Has it been years or decades or how long have you been doing that? No, no, no. It's been about two and a half years, I would say. Okay. And then the lasers did that come after the QEG because you found like- No, I didn't use the laser until I had the QEG. Got it. I got the QEG setup, which was not an easy task. I can't imagine. Then because the field is kind of arcane. First of all, I'm an Apple guy and it's all on PC. That alone is horrible. I know, me too. I wouldn't know what to do. It's horrible. That alone is a trauma. And so I got the QEG setup and then it's very difficult. And then I got the laser setup and then I had to read the QEG. I had to hire somebody to read it because it takes- This is highly technical. That's what I'm saying. We're not trained in medical school this level. No, no, no. I still, I always, on every case, consult with somebody who's an expert. There are people who've been doing this for 20, 30 years. They know what they're doing. But what I will say that they don't do, that I am doing is analyzing the pathways, like the guy where I talked about the frontal occipital vesiculus. I spent six hours going over his QEG, correlating with the symptoms in the tracks and what they do. And I identified these tracks and, you know. Unbelievable. And this is just, you're right. This is mind-blowing. And I am- It's mind-blowing. You're one of the few people who's really doing this, Bob. Is that correct? Like I don't know if anyone else- Yeah, I don't, there's nobody. There are people doing laser on the brain, high-intensity laser. There's nobody that I know who is doing a QEG-guided laser. Yeah. I'm hoping, I'm trying to get a setup where I can train clinicians, get more data. Yeah. So we can, you know, publish more data, of course. But anyway, that, you know, the lasers are very, very expensive. The QEG equipment is expensive, et cetera. So I'm trying to figure out how to make that happen. Exactly. Well, I'm gonna be sure and share this as much as I can to get the word out. And at the end, we'll make sure and where people can find you if there's a clinician who's interested or how we can support you. Because I wanna support the work that you're doing. I think this is absolutely critical to the future. Let me blow your mind one more time. Yeah. Okay. One more. I love this, so keep going. Okay, let me share my screen here and show you this one here. So, you know, for people who don't know QEGs, this is the raw data that we start with. It's a lot of squiggly lines, et cetera. So the images you were showing us, is that the analysis of the raw data put into images and places? Yes, it's a refined analysis. I mean, you could do a lot of analysis of this QEG record, really. And you could see, for example, right here, well, not exactly here. Somewhere in this record is a theta phase reversals, which is indicative of a pre-seizure activity, et cetera. I mean, there's a lot you can learn from the raw wave, but it's actually more refined. This analysis here is more refined. And the reason I wanna show you this is because now with this, I can actually move things around. Wow. Let's show you what's going on. So just to orient everybody, here is like you're looking down at the person's head, you know, slice the top of the head off, and this is where you're looking at. Here is looking as if you're sliced the middle of the head, and here is looking a frontal slice, so the eyes of the person would be looking at you, coming out of your computer. Here, what we have is a model of the person's head, and here we have the blue, our tracks, a bunch of nerve tracks that are under communicating. So for example, if we look here, we see the frontal lobes are not communicating, and we can look here at the particular tracks. Let me move this thing here. And I can look, this is the, should be the anterior commissure here. No, maybe not. Let's see. So I would have to, there's the corpus callosum. So that's the anterior corpus callosum. You see it coming and going. So I can say where the under function is happening. Now this person obviously has a bunch of areas that are under functioning. So the story with this guy, just to give you a little background, is this is a guy who came to me twice. Once I treated him with functional medicine, helped him a little bit, diagnosed Lyme disease. He went to a Lyme clinic where he had IV antibiotics, his temper, his rage went down, but he still had, when he came back to me, his derealization was quite high, his depersonalization 70% of the time, separate from his body, severe depression, difficulty falling asleep. Every time he'd fall asleep, get alerted and activated, he had to sleep in his parents' home in their bedroom. You know, he's that anxious. So this is the first QEG that we did. And here we're looking at the neurons that are firing one time per second. I'm just gonna scroll up here and you'll see. So the Delta, right? So this is the Delta, one, two, three, four. Now we get to four and things start to change. We're at the top of Delta. We get to five, now things are getting worse. Now we're in low theta, but what you see here as we go up here is that it's really getting pretty bad, right? Now if we go down here, what you see, this is another of those mind-bending things. Now this guy is having, let me just scope to nine for a second and see if it shows it better. No, he's better at nine. So this guy here at seven, you see that the worst area that's picked up by the crosshairs is Heschel's Gyrus. And this is in the medial temporal area, the parahippocampal areas. And the parahippocampal areas are the first areas and the thalamus, which is right here. Right here is the thalamus, so bring the crosshairs here to the thalamus, right? And this is the parahippocampal areas in here. The parahippocampal areas are the first areas to take a hit when you're hypoxic. So I went back after this analysis and I asked his mother, did he ever have hypoxia? And sure enough, she says she had a horrible labor, a 24-hour labor, and he was hypoxic. Wow. Wow, so what does this mean? The bottom line is that this means that you see his thalamus gets worse as we go up here, it turns red. You see his thalamus here? Oh, wow. Basically, he can't integrate his internal experience and the external experience, his whole life. Yeah. He can't predict what's gonna happen in his world because a thalamus is an integrating station from the internal to the external and the thalamus sends fibers out to layer four of the cortex and that's in the delta area and the theta area. And so this guy, he can't function in the world. Yeah. So he's having trouble getting through and he starts using drugs. Yeah. But he's growing up in a middle-class family, professional family, good people and he wants to have a life but there's no way he's gonna make a life for himself because he can't function, because he can't integrate. So what do you get? You get depression, you get anxiety, you use drugs, you get dissociated, et cetera. So what short, long story short, basically we did functional medicine. In his functional medicine analysis, he had, his iron was running high, he's tended to hemochromatosis. So we treated that, he had pyroluria. So we treated his zinc, his copper, his B6. He had some thyroid issues from really chronic stress, vitamin D, that kind of thing. And basically then we gave him hyperbaric oxygen because that will work on these problems. And we did neurofeedback. In six months, he's got a job and he's working full-time. Wow. And we still have work to do but he's not depressed. His depersonalization dissociation is markedly reduced. He can sleep. Now he couldn't sleep because when you're going to sleep, your kind of, your brain is winding down, it's going beta, alpha, to theta, to delta, you're asleep. Well, every time he gets into theta, his brain is going wild. Yeah, it's like, ooh, party time. Party time, can't stop. So that's the story on this guy. Bob, you told me this is interesting, but I'm just literally like, I could spend three hours here with you. We're going to have to come back for sure. But so a couple of questions I'm thinking because I deal a lot with chronic environmental toxicity, just environmental chemicals and especially mold. And then of course, Lyme and tick-borne infections. But what I'm hearing is there's these, probably ancestral pre-birth events and there's birth events and there's trauma and then there's things like food and diet and lifestyle. And then there is- Is it injury? Yeah, head injury, yeah. We didn't even talk about concussions. But this is really, what we talked about at the beginning before we got on is the functional medicine is just this much of what we do. And then adding these things on is so profound because there's no supplement that could do what you just showed us the laser could do. There's nothing like that. And it's profound because you're changing and it's pretty instantaneous, right? Like you're getting a very quick result. Well, we get quick results. This guy, the one guy I showed you before was four times but the woman who had the MCI and the temporal lobe, I believe she was 20, I think 25 treatments. If someone has an early dementia, for example, you might need ongoing treatments. I treated a guy with vascular dementia, early vascular dementia and he did everything I asked and he texted me. One day I texted him just to check in on him and he said, oh, my memory is my new superpower. I was like, he must be having a good day. That's all. But I did a CNS vital signs on him and he was not kidding. He was scored in the 95th percentile. Wow, well, that's good. He might need, maybe he'll need ongoing treatments. I mean, it's certainly ongoing lifestyle change for his vascular system, et cetera. Do you see any particular patterns that differentiate like mold or Lyme or are they just all similar things that are dysfunctioning in different ways? No, no, there are definite patterns. And so, for example, in the mold situation, for example, you'll see a similar picture to what I just showed you, a broad diffuse instability in the cortical areas, a broad and diffuse, really. It won't be localized because it's dynamic. And you can't really, as you know, you can't really treat. You can do everything, but you're not going to get someone better if they're in a moldy environment. That's not happening. I'm going to give you a question. I don't know the terms that was like toxic encephalopathy. Is that a good term? I think that's a very good term. So you have to have the functional medicine. You have to have that. And you need a lot of modalities. And you need the neurofeedback in this guy that I just showed you was critical. It was very helpful. What about infections? Are they more localized, say, Bartonella versus Lyme versus are they more? Yes, they're more localized. So here's another quick, interesting case for you. This is a 24-year-old sweetheart of a girl, an African-American girl who wants to own her own professional firm. And she kept straight As and doing great. And then, boom, she ends up in a psychiatric hospital like how many times? Five times. And so she treated for Lyme, not by me. This was all done before me. Treated for Lyme relapsed. Treated for Lyme relapsed. Hospitalization again. The treatments don't stick. So we did the QEG. And we see this pattern, this red pattern, localized in the left frontal temporal area. The site of the infection, which is probably because she had a traumatic brain injury there when she was younger. So now, and she has seizures, which weren't picked up, but we picked them up. So we're treating the seizures with clonazepam and trying to get around ketogenic diet. And so we could get rid of the clonazepam. So her seizures are gone. She's doing better. And then we're treating her gut because she has SIBO. And then she's got all kinds of, she's got a lot of SNPs in her NR3C1 and FKBP5. So she has adrenal problems transmitting the cortisol signal to the nucleus. She's got most of those genes, our variants. And she, of course, consistent with that, has a history of being unable to fight infections and getting sick easily. So I have to treat the gut. Then I have to treat the adrenals. And then when I've got the adrenal treated, I'm gonna treat her with a couple of antibiotics that'll go inside the brain. And then we're gonna do, if we need to, neurofeedback or laser or whatever. So I think what they're calling schizophrenia is not schizophrenia. It's an infectious cause, causing seizures and cognitive instability. Absolutely, I see that all the time. And one thing you mentioned that I think is true, and I wanna see if you agree. Say you have a car accident with a neck injury or a low back issue or a brain trauma. I always see the volume and co-infections tend to go to the areas where you've had previous injury. And I'm assuming in the brain, it could be same thing. So you've had a concussion from a sports injury. You might have more activity of that infection in that injury, is that correct? 100%, yeah, 100%. Wow. And would you always see asymmetric kinds of findings more with trauma versus like this global effect? So yeah, trauma, brain injury, for example, you'll see a localized or you'll see a co-contracoup pattern. So you might see something in the left, you know, well, I'm pointing to my right front, the left occipital kind of thing, you know what I mean? So this QEG is something that every psychiatrist should learn to do. Oh, I could not agree more. And we need you to train. I wanna talk just briefly about hyperbaric and let's see, there was something else. This is so fast. Yeah, let's talk just a little bit about when would you use hyperbaric? What have you seen it useful for? What kinds of, how would you know that's a good idea to use? Yeah, so hyperbaric oxygen, I'm gonna say in general for brain problems, generally speaking, it's a really good, right? So it's obviously really helpful for traumatic brain injury, right? It's really helpful strangely enough with PTSD, right? There's a group in Israel, you've probably heard of them. They're using it, hyperbaric oxygen to treat PTSD. And what happens is when you go into the chamber, you have your sessions, you start having memories and you process your memories. And the summary- You have to have help there to help like you facilitate a little bit. You have to have somebody. It may not happen immediately, but you know, in the days after, because the brain is functioning better, right? I'm obviously in a vascular situation. I've used it in Alzheimer's disease. You know, I'm using it in someone who has Lewy body dementia, but I'm not saying I'm having success because she's not out of the mold. We can't get her into ketosis. You know, her inflammatory markers are still high. I'm seeing with the laser, we did laser and I'm seeing the connectivity improving probably about 30%, but it's not translating to clinical improvement because there are other factors. You know, you have to be out of the mold. You have to, you know- Some of these are, like you said, ALS and those can be- But the hyperbaric seems to be helpful in those situations. I'm curious. I just talked, Richie Horowitz had mentioned that with obesity, that would be the one caution. I'm wondering if you've seen that with, like, if there's any other contraindications to a hyperbaric? I haven't used it in anyone with babesia. I don't know if it's a contraindication. I mean, maybe- I don't either, I'm just wondering. Yeah, I'm not sure. I mean, the contraindications are pneumothorax. For example, you wouldn't want to use it if someone's had a pneumothorax in the last year. If they're having sinus infections, they can't clear their nose. Some people who have Lyme, for example, will go in the hyperbaric and they will feel worse. They'll have a heart's reaction for several sessions. So, you know, maybe go slow with that. But, and obviously with this brain mass or something like that, that's not a great idea. And typically with hyperbaric, what number of sessions or what would they be looking at to actually get a clinical outcome? So it depends on the situation. If you're a young person, we like to use the hyperbaric with the neurofeedback. And if you're a young person, you do 40 H-bots hyperbaric oxygen therapy with the neurofeedback. That's beautiful. It seems to accelerate the progress. If you're someone with a dementia or early dementia, you're gonna need probably 100 or 120 treatments and you might need to use it ongoing or three times a week or four times a week. Older people obviously need more, younger people need less. I do it myself three times a week. Because it does good things. It makes stem cells, it does a lot of good things. It's a good anti-inflammatory, et cetera. This is so exciting. And then I've had a lot of questions on the feed about, is this permanent? Is this, I'm assuming like you mentioned, some of these dementias and things that are progressive, they're gonna need some ongoing maintenance and treatments. They're not gonna just get better. But I'm assuming some of your like 20-somethings, they actually start to see reversal and it may be fairly permanent. Would you say? Yes, yes, yes. So I've just finished treating a woman who's 30 and she with severe depression, most people would call her borderline personality, not anymore. She's done everything I've asked and she did about I think 16 laser treatments and neurofeedback and she's doing well. Now she's working through her trauma. Yeah. Cause she has PTSD from bullying, et cetera. And so, and then you have to redevelop your personality because your conception of who you are, your character needs work at that point, right? Yeah, because we identify with these things. I've done a lot of personal work in the last several years, especially the last year. And I realized, wow, I'm actually not that same person, but your mind still thinks of yourself that way. So, I do, yeah, right. So that's very important work, but you know, so yes, she's not gonna need more laser treatments. I don't think. Wow. Well, Bob, this is so, you're right, it is mind blowing. I am so delighted. This has been one of my favorite interviews and I hope we can do more. Where can people find you? What resource? I wanna make sure and mention your books. I'll put links to your books website. Tell us a little bit about where else can they find more information about you? Well, as you could go to our website, it's wholepsychiatry.com, like Whole Foods, only Whole Psychiatry. And I came up with it before they did. I would. Right? But it's easy to remember at WHLE, wholepsychiatry.com. And there's a contact form. There's a lot of resources on the page. I've done radio shows back when there was such a thing as radio show. And in this video, there's a lot of information. You have to dig a little bit, but there's a lot of videos, et cetera. And people can contact me. Perfect. Yeah, and again, the practitioners will be listening to this as well. So if you're a practitioner and you hear this and you wanna get in contact for training or information or fund, Bob, I'm sure he would be happy to take some investments in funding because I love this. If I had extra funds, I would. You know what my dream is, Jill, my dream is my dream. My dream is to have a small hospital where we can take these patients who are really ill, the mild cognitive impairment, they can't pull this off outside the hospital very well, bring them into the hospital in a wonderful environment, do the functional medicine, train them, teach them, exercise them, teach the family, do the neurofeed, do the laser, do the age, whatever it is, the PMF, whatever it is you gotta do. And then after a few months, two, three months, they go out into the world in a much, much, much better. That's my dream. I'm putting it out. I love it, Bob. And I'm gonna just plant a little seed here publicly. I've been in Switzerland two years. I didn't go this year, but to a Swiss fountain clinic that was amazing to get away. And while I was there last year, I had this real download kind of a spiritual inspiration of where someday I went ahead. It's exactly what you're describing, a place for people to come where the food is taking care of for them. They can sleep and stay there. They're taking care of, and they've got all the therapies, all the access, and they have functional medicine, they have QEGs, they have HBOT, they have all of this stuff, and people like you and I trying to really help nurture. Oh, that'd be awesome though. So let's just put that intention out because I think I really believe it'll happen. Yes, I'm working on it, I'm working on it. I have to tell you one last time, I have a patient, it's a friend of the family, so I'm working with the physician's amount sign. Do you know that they're giving her TPN, she's unconscious, 128 grams of sugar a day. And they're expecting her to recover. Now they of course have to put her on the insulin. So the insanity, the insanity in the hospitals you know they're killing you with one hand and helping you with the other. Yeah, that's my dream, the hospital. Well let's stay in touch and I'm just manifesting that the right investors and people that see the value will come and help us out Bob because we have the passion and the dream and I think it'll all happen in the right time but I believe, I saw a vision as I was walking up to Swiss mountain and I literally wept because I thought, who am I to be involved in this? I'm just a little peon but I know that I believe big dreams and sometimes I see that happen and so let's put it out there. Let's put it out there, I'm with you, I'm with you. Awesome, what a great time. Thank you for your time today. Thank you for inspiring us and I hope you have a great, you're welcome. I really appreciate Jill, I appreciate, first of all I appreciate all your great work and I just love your teaching and your lecturing and how you're moving the field forward. It's just fabulous, fabulous, fabulous, keep it up. And I really appreciate the opportunity to put this out there because it's important. It really is and we will do it again. Great.

Increase the cost of the inventory by doing the same thing to it, which in this case would be another debit So there we have that now let's post it something's in inventory and so in seven I'm gonna double-click on it go to the end of it and say plus and then point to the inventory That will make it go up in the debit direction now. We're out of bounds by 110 I'm gonna go to cash in in five and say equals and point to the 110 and Enter that will make cash go down and we're back in balance So we're now on seven eight where it says we sold merchandise for cash All right, we sold for cash this time so we're on seven eight and Once again, it's just like this journal entry up here, but now we sold it for cash. So is cash affected? Yes, we and and we do want to think about this in terms of two journal entries again So there's gonna be a sales half There's gonna be a half having to do with inventory the sales half has nothing to do with inventory We can think of it as if it was a service industry. So is cash affected? Yes, we received cash. So cash is going up cash is the debit balance We're gonna make it go up by doing the same thing to it which in this case would be another debit So I'm gonna copy that I'm gonna paste it one two three on top and we sold it For cash sales price being 2200 so we're gonna say it's 2200 and we're gonna credit something for that same amount So I'm gonna credit something for the 2200 as well And what are we gonna credit? Why are we getting paid cash because we worked? We did something and generated or earned revenue and how did we work? We gave something we gave the we gave the merchandise so revenue We can see here is the sales account and we could have called it anything. We could have called it income revenue It's all the same type of account. It's in the revenue account section It has a credit balance. We need to make it go up and it only goes up sales only goes one way generally So we're gonna make go up by doing the same thing to it which in this case is a credit So I'm gonna copy that kind of paste it one two three right underneath And I'm gonna post this out and then talk and worry about the Inventory half of this journal entry. So something's in cash. I'm gonna double click on it I'm gonna go to the end of it gonna say plus and we could see what's in there anything related To cash of course should be in there. So we can see e15 in there and now we're gonna add to that this cell which is in D 17 and enter cash goes up then we're gonna go to sales same thing something's in there So I'm gonna double click I can see what's in there this sales accounts in there gonna say plus Remember, there's never gonna be a negative number in this area the negatives in here So we don't have to put a negative on this side always equals and pluses gonna point to the 2002 Sales will go up net income will go up and there we have that now we're gonna have to say that well the Inventory must have gone down because we gave inventory a whey Inventory has a debit balance. We need to make it go down. So I'm gonna do the opposite thing to it Which in this case is a credit. So I'm gonna copy that. I'm gonna skip the line Here's where the new journal entry starts, but I'm gonna put it on the bottom So I'm down here on cell 21 right-click and paste one two three And I'm gonna put it in the credit column the amount being this one eight So I'm gonna say negative one eight zero zero and we're also gonna need a debit So I'm gonna put that on top and to the left of one eight zero zero. You could type it in there I like to put this negative and Equals that sign to have everything kind of connected and what's that gonna be that's gonna be an expense related us Consuming the inventory in order to help us generate this revenue. That's called cost of goods sold It is an expense account expense accounts have debit balances. They generally only go up We're gonna make it go up by doing the same thing to it which in this case would be another debit that debit We'll make net income go down. Let's see that as we post that gonna double-click on the cost good sold We can see that this account is in there gonna go to the end of it and Plus then point to the one eight and this should go up in the debit direction like so and it brings net income down Note that we're saying here's income is the good the credit is actually the good thing on the income statement Minus the expenses adds up to the 88. I mean the 858. That's our net income Then we're gonna go to merchandise inventory up here in in seven double-click go to the end I'm gonna say plus and point to this I'm out here. Now, of course, we're getting a lot of stuff in here But just remember that it should be everything related to the merchandise inventory And we're gonna say enter and if we want to see what's in there We can always click on this and it's in the data tab Or the formulas tab and we could go to this trace and that will show you the numbers that are in there So this minus this plus this minus this makes up the 5,000 Plus this minus this plus this minus this will bring us to the nine two six eight I usually keep those up here because I really like those and so I'm gonna get rid of that All right, so now we're gonna go to the seven nine seven nine and Sell b23 which says that we purchased merchandise from L company terms 215 and 30 and before I go into that any further I just want to point out that when we recorded this accounts receivable up here This was this thousand dollars. It was from C company. We should report that in our subsidiary ledger as well So I'm actually gonna post that in the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger You can see it has a red zero here because it's saying hey your subsidiary ledger here doesn't tie out to the here And the way we're gonna do that. We're gonna say here C owes us that one thousand So I'm gonna say that one thousand is owed from C and Now we have the one thousand ties out the one thousand adds up to here We can see who owes it. It's C same with this one the six five on the on the payable side is owed by B That's why we have a green number there. All right So now seven nine purchase merchandise from L company terms to 15 and 30 So we're purchasing the merchandise We're purchasing it from L and the terms mean that we get a 2% discount if we pay within 15 days Otherwise, we have to pay it within 30 days or they might come after us at that point in time And so we're gonna record it at this time As if we're not gonna take the discount and then if we take the discount then we'll account for that when we Pay the payment. So we don't really even need to know this for this point We're gonna need to know it when we make the payment if we pay it within 15 days We do need to know that we paid it on account. So is cash affected? No, we paid it on account That's why we have terms and therefore I used to like to think of what did we receive? We received inventory Inventory is an asset assets have debit balances as we can see here with no brackets We need to make it go up. How do we make something go up? We do the same thing to it which in this case would be another debit So I'm gonna copy that I'm gonna put it on top gonna right-click and haste it one two three So then we're gonna have to put the amount being Seven nine two five and we're going to credit something for the same amount So what's the amount that will be credited? Well, it's not cash because we bought it on account It's gonna be accounts payable accounts payable has a credit balance We're gonna make it go up by doing the same thing to it which in this case would be another credit So I'm gonna copy that gonna put our cursor in C24 right-click paste it one two three So now let's post this out. So I'm gonna go up here to merchandise inventory Something's in it. I'm gonna double-click on it. Go to the end of it. Say plus point to this to five and Enter merchandise inventory goes up. Then we're gonna go to accounts payable gonna double-click on it Go to the end of it say plus and then point to the accounts payable and this is a credit This is a credit gonna make the accounts payable go up in the credit direction So there we have it back and balance no effect on net income from that transaction Alright next transaction. We're getting down on the book on the bottom here. We're gonna say at 7-11 We return merchandise. Oh one thing we should do note if I go over here that it's it's not it's red now Which indicates it's bad because the six five does not equal the nine hundred And that's because now we have to represent the fact that on the subsidiary ledger for accounts payable Who owes us money? L owes us money. So over here in the credit side for L and V atm and say that equals the credit of two five and enter and now we have the 9,000 here ties out to the 9,000 here and we're back in balance and we're good to go So now 7-11. Okay, so we returned merchandise to L so that means There was defective merchandise and we gave it back to L. We said this is defective. We counted it It doesn't work or something's wrong with it We're gonna give it back to L if L accepts it then they'll give us a refund now in this case Of course, we have not yet paid L. So is they're gonna give us cash? Is cash affected? No He didn't we didn't pay him yet. So what's gonna happen then is we're gonna reduce the payable that is owed So again, it's kind of harder a lot of times for people to think about the payable It's a lot easier a lot of times to think about which way the inventory is going So inventory has a debit balance. We gave it back. So it needs to go down How do we make something go down? We do the opposite thing to it which in this case is a credit So I'm gonna copy this I'm gonna go down here. I'm gonna go to the bottom of it So there's the I'm gonna go to the bottom of the insult 20 or row 27 right-click paste it 1 2 3 We gave back inventory that cost us $500 then we're gonna have to debit something again If we paid cash for it then we think maybe they give us cash back, but we haven't paid him yet So we have to debit the payable payable as a credit balance if we debit it it'll make that balance go down So I'm gonna right-click copy that Gonna put it in cell C 26 right-click and paste it 1 2 3 So let's post that out and see what happens. So we're gonna go to the accounts payable and sell in In eight double-click on it go to the end of it Plus and I know we have to scroll down a little bit I'm using my scroller to scroll down a little bit so I can see the last journal entry we made There's the 500. I don't have to scroll back up to hit enter I can just hit enter now and it does it for me. So if I scroll up a little bit there It is so now it went down from 9000 down to 8 5 then the second account will go to The merchandise inventory another thing you can do here if you want to see it all in one page is we can look We can shorten the screen from a hundred down to like 80 or so and we can see more of the screen at one time And we can go to the merchandise inventory Double-click go to the end of it and plus and then I'm going to point to the 500 Credit that will put us back in balance bring Inventory down when we hit enter Okay, so now you can see that once again. We have this negative or this red 9000 here and that's because we don't O L 5000 anymore because we gave back some of the inventory so we're gonna debit part of that So I'm basically just gonna record this again in U 19 for this 500 meaning that we O L now 2000 we O B 65 for total of 8 5 that ties out to our subsidiary ledger So we need to know that because we need to know who we owe the money to obviously and we know who owes us money so we can collect and pay as needed alright, so now we're gonna go down to B 29 where we have 7 12 and We received the balance due from C company for invoice on 7 2 So C company now paid us now notice. There's no dollar amount there. We're gonna go. How are we gonna find that out? Well, we can look at our Receivable now in this case, it's pretty basic because there's only one person that owes this money But if there were more people in there, then we'd have to look at the subsidiary ledger over here and say well Who owes us that money and we could see that see owes us that entire $1,000 now the question is did they pay us within the discount period and if we look over here They're supposed to pay us within 10 days and that happened on 7 2 and they paid us on 7 12 so they did just make it within the 10 days So they're gonna get a discount so they're not actually gonna pay us the $1,000 They're gonna pay us 1,000 less the discount So there's a couple different ways we can think about how to get the discount amount So let's do that now. We know that is cash affected. Yeah, we're gonna get paid cash We got to check in the mail from C for the sale that was made in the past terms 210 and 60 So cash as a debit balance, we're gonna make it go up by doing the same thing to it Which in this case would be another debit, so I'm gonna scroll down here I'm gonna paste it 1 2 3 and then we could try to think about the amount a couple ways We can calculate this if we pull out the trusty calculator here. We sold it for $1,000 We gave a 2% discount times 0.02 so that means that we're gonna give a discount of $20 $20 minus $1,000 means we're gonna get 980 We can also think of it is if we're thinking a 2% discount out of a hundred a hundred would be one Minus 2% minus 0.02 means that if we're not gonna get 2% We are gonna get 98% and we can just take that 98% times the 1,000 So when we're thinking about when we're going to a store and we see discounts on the store This might be an easier way to calculate. It's one step kind of way to calculate it We can just say that we have cash is going to be received 1,000 sales price times if we're gonna get a 2% discount we're collecting point 98% that's how much we are getting and enter So there's the cash that we're gonna get then I often like to think about The receivable going down because that's the normal thing that happens and this receivable needs to go to zero So this 1,000 needs to go to zero. So it has a debit balance. I need to make it go down I'm gonna do the opposite thing to it, which is a credit So I'm gonna copy that kind of put it here paste it one two three It's gonna be a credit not of the 980 though. It's gonna be a credit of the 1,000 Notice that if I put a credit of 98

Hello, and welcome to this screencast. In this screencast, we will determine whether or not an infinite series converges using the integral test. So here is the statement of the integral test for the convergence of a series. Let f be a real valued function that is positive and decreasing for all x larger than some value c. And suppose a sub k, the k-th term of our series, is equal to f of k for each positive integer k. Then the series from n equals 1 to infinity of a sub n converges if and only if the improper integral from c to infinity of f of x dx converges. So this means we need to create an appropriate improper integral, and then we determine if that integral converges or diverges. The outcome for our integral will be the same as the outcome for our original series, and that's how we'll answer the question. So let's start by writing our general term a sub n equals 1 over n to the fourth. To create a function f of x, we will just replace n with x, so we will use f of x equals 1 over x to the fourth. So now let's check to make sure that this function f of x satisfies the conditions of the integral test. So it needs to be a real valued function, and it certainly is. All of the outputs are going to be real numbers. And it also needs to be positive and decreasing for all x larger than some value c. So 1 over x to the fourth is always going to be positive for any input except for 0. And so that will work. And if we let c be equal to 1, then as x increases, the denominator will get larger. So 1 over x to the fourth is also going to decrease. So now we want to check that the kth term of the series is equal to f of k, and so that's going to be true. That's exactly how we created that function f of x. And so this satisfies the hypothesis of the integral test. And so now in order to use this, we need to see if the improper integral converges or diverges. That's our next step. So our improper integral for this example is the integral from 1 to infinity of 1 over x to the fourth dx. Our first step in evaluating this integral is to replace the upper limit with a variable that represents a finite value b. And then we're going to evaluate that limit as b goes to infinity. And in this step, we're also going to rewrite the integrand as x to the negative fourth dx to make it easier to work with. So to find an antiderivative, we can just use the power rule. And so we'll have a limit as b approaches infinity of x to the negative three divided by that new exponent negative three. And we're going to evaluate that at b and at 1. So when we evaluate this at x equals b, we get 1 over negative 3 b cubed. I moved that back down to the denominator so we'd have a positive exponent. And then when we evaluate at x equals 1, we're going to subtract 1 over negative 3. And so to evaluate this limit now, let's consider this term here, the 1 over negative 3 b cubed. As b increases, this denominator is also going to increase. It's going to become very, very large. And that means the whole fraction, 1 over negative 3 b cubed, is going to become very, very small. And so this part of it will approach 0 as b approaches infinity. So now we're left with 0 minus negative 1, 0 minus 1 over negative 3. And so that simplifies to just 1 third. And so that's the value of our limit as b approaches infinity. So since the limit exists, that means that the improper integral converges. So we figured out from our integral test whether or not the integral converges. And we know that the outcome for the series is going to be the same outcome for our improper integral using the integral test. And so that means that since our improper integral converges, the series from n equals 1 to infinity of 1 over n to the 4th also converges. And so that's our final result using the integral test. Thanks for watching.

that got me a $500 sale versus a $100 sale or something like that we're saying did I make a sale or did I not make a sale success being defined in this case if we made the sale non-success if we did not if you're talking about a coin flipping situation then we will have heads or tails so the question is in a coin flipping situation did the success would be defined as either heads or tails whichever you want to choose non-success would be the other for the probability of quote success which is going to be represented by P is the same for each outcome so when you talk about a coin flipping situation then if it's a fair coin the probability of success 50% each coin flip if you're talking about a sales call situation or a coin that is not fair for example then you could the sales call you can have the probability of success for each call is usually much lower if you're especially if you're cold calling for sales you might only have like a 10% or even lower probability of making a sale on any particular call but that 10% were imagining would be constant for each of the calls so if these conditions are met then you could have a binomial type of distribution and we can use this equation we're not going to go into the equation in too much detail here because I don't want to be too intimidated by the equation because the idea would be that once the equation has been figured out to give us the curve of a binomial distribution then we can apply that if we find that that being applicable in our actual real-life situation then we can apply that using our excel functions and our excel graphs and if you wanted to type this in of course you can go to the insert and you can go into the equation and then you can make an ink equation we've seen in prior presentation so I won't do the whole thing again here but just know any Microsoft product you can kind of type in a mathematical equation this way and that way you can you can represent that equation in in excel so so so or any any Microsoft product so it's a kind of a new nice tool to have so let's go on over and approximate some data so we're going to have the number is going to be in and then we've got P is going to be the percent of of likelihood P is the same for each outcome which which is the the the probability of success for each outcome so let's imagine what we want to do now is plot out the binomial distribution and make a graph from it and see how the graph changes if we change the variables such as N and P as we do this it might be useful to envision a scenario so let's imagine that we have that sales call scenario where N represents the number of calls and P represents the probability of success success in this case being that we made a sale on the sales call failure being that we don't have a sale on the sales call so if I was to plot this out we're going to say that X is on the left so X is going to be zero through five notice that this sequence that we're putting into excel I could put a zero in a one and then use the fill handle a copy it down to five or just type in five but if we use this sequence function we could say equals sequence and then the number of rows is going to be this number five plus one because I actually want to add a zero and then comma comma to the starting point of zero the reason this sequence function is useful is because sometimes it's faster if you have a whole lot of columns and also you can change the number of rows automatically now by changing this end so if I change this end this will change automatically so that's kind of a useful tool sometimes to use within excel the pfx is going to be out

Hey there, Chad Bodger here for Ohio University Libraries. If you're doing a demographic or consumer analysis of a particular region, SimplyMap's a great tool for that. This video is going to show you how to use SimplyMap to create what's called a ring study to get demographic variables for a 1 mile, 3 mile, and 5 mile radius, as well as looking at consumer interest or consumer graphic information as well. So it allows you to create a map, create a table, all kinds of good stuff. This video is a little bit longer than some of my usual videos, clocking in about 7 minutes or so. So please bear with me because it's a little bit complicated topic, but hopefully it helps you. So when you arrive at SimplyMap, what you're going to do is there's all kinds of options. I'm actually going to go click on New Tabular Report. And what I want to do is create a ring study report, which is going to create a demographic analysis of a target area based on 1, 3, and 5 mile radius around a location. And this is going to be pretty neat because it's going to allow us to map variables as well. So I'm going to click on Ring Study Report. And then what you can do is click on the Launch Ring Study Wizard, which is probably the easiest way to do this. And first I ask this for a location, so I'm going to do Locations. And for my example, I'm going to do a city. I'm going to do Missouri. And I'm going to do Kansas City. Then you click on Use this Location. And next it asks us to add some variables. And I'm going to click on Variables there. And I'm going to start looking at some census data. And let's just say we're interested in people and household information and some population information. We want to, we can drill down about a variety of places. What I'm actually going to do is click on Use All Variables here. And it's going to put the variables there for us once it loads the data there. Okay, if you want to add more variables, you can go back and click on Variables. And let's say if you're interested in Byrace, you can actually click on Use All Variables there. Let's go under Age. And let's just do Use All Variables Total for Age. And then what you can also do, if we close that, it's going to add our variables there again. So we get age information, things like that once it loads the data for us. Okay, so we have percent population and age groups, things like that on a one mile, three mile, five mile radius compared to all of the USA. I want to also put in some other kind of things, some interest in athletic activities or interest in attending sports events, things like that. So I'm going to click on Variables. And this time I'm actually going to go down and click on Search. So we want to, if we can go in and actually search for NFL, for example, the search for NFL gives us a lot of different results. If we scroll down, we see who watched NFL today on TV, things like that. What I'm interested in is scrolling down to see a little more down below here. Keep going. So here is percent entertainment leisure, sports interest, somewhat interested in the NFL. I'm going to use that variable. I'm also going to use this little bit variable. And you can kind of see where it gives you a path here. It says entertainment leisure, sports interest last 12 months. And this is in the Simmons local content there. So what I can actually do is go back to Variables and then look at Simmons local, go on to entertainment leisure, go under sports interests. And then this is sports interest last 12 months. And you can look and see, let me move this over a little bit, all the different categories that you can look at. So let's say we want to look at not only National Football League, but maybe Major League Baseball as well. So we can click on that. And so here are percent, let me minimize that a little bit there so we can see percent, somewhat interested. We can use this variable, percent, a little bit interested, use this variable, percent not at all, use this variable, percent, very, very interested, use this variable. And now once we close this, all of our information is over here in our table. If we scroll down, we got a lot of variables to look at here, if we scroll down. So here is percent, someone interested in National Football League. Let's say we're looking at percent here, very interested in National Football League, or actually here we have percent, very interested in Major League Baseball. What we can do now is create a map of this variable. And once the data loads, it's going to populate the data. And look at the, not only look at the city limits there, but go out and do a ring study around to show you how much interest there are in some of the outline zip codes. Right now we're looking at zip codes, but again, actually go out and look at counties. We wanted to refresh that way. So different ways to find the same kind of information. So a variety of things you can do here now. What you can do is actually go, if you don't like the red and pinks, you can edit the legend here and change the colors to different colors if you like to do that. You can also go up and do actions, export map as either a GIF or a PDF to save it to a PowerPoint file or that sort of thing you want to put it into a PowerPoint or another type of presentation. Great way to do that to get your data that way. So that's one way that you can actually use simply map to do what's called a ring study for a particular demographic area. So a great resource and a great tool. Hopefully this helps you understand how to use simply map to create a ring study and create a map from that ring study. If you need more help, look for the contact link on my business blog. I'll be glad to help you anyway I can. Take care.

7. Evan Miyazono - Ways other than patents to reward innovation

All right. My name is Evan Miyazono. I have done research at Protocol Labs. I really tried to just make sure that we have the best research we can have and have as much of it as possible. And I've been thinking about how to reward innovation generally. This is going to be a very fast talk about some things that are half to this audience asking, does this sound insane? Have you heard or have you heard of something like this before and half to the video audience of if this sounds interesting, would you be interested in working on it? Feel free to reach out. Thinking about ways other than IP to reward innovation, the idea being that if you were in charge of or received as a private citizen some corporate R&D lab alone, how could you make sure that that was sustainable given that it creates good things but may not be easily monetizable? Often the best of labs in the past have been connected to some monopolistic-like entity like Xerox or Bell or the US government, for instance. And the intellectual property is one reasonable way to try to monetize things. There are different types of knowledge or different types of outcomes of innovation. I would highlight these four as reasonably useful categories, explicit knowledge being things that you can write down and share very easily, the knowledge that you know how to explain and you know to elicit in a conversation, the tacit knowledge that you may or may not be able to convey in an easy way. There's only the hard way to learn it and then generalized impact. In terms of tools for value capture, we have a bunch of these things. There's not intending to be an exhaustive list, but mostly I want to talk through some weird things that I don't think I've seen in other places. One of them being if you have explicit knowledge, I think it could be interesting to have something that looks like a derivatives trading desk. First, I'll talk about the tech-transferry partnership. As you might imagine, you could have, as part adjacent to a lab, a group that identifies if you are working on technology A, which is a competitor to alternative hypothesis technology B, there are companies out there that are probably making bets that A will succeed or that B will succeed. You could potentially partner with those companies and try to elicit some sort of non-dilutive no rights included funding for those directions to try and increase the funding to increase the likelihood of success, if that's influenceable. You could also imagine having those groups empower those groups to raise capital and invest in those companies based on the outcome of the experiments. One thing that is a really weird example of explicit knowledge that I think would not fall under any existing monetization strategy would be if you found that these three vitamins and aspirin managed to reduce symptoms of some particular cancer or Parkinson's or something, I don't think you can patent that. I don't think you can trademark it or license it effectively, but the companies that manufacture those things will probably see some change in demand or their stock price or something like that. As it stands, there's no real financial incentive to generate that knowledge. The question becomes, if you had something like these groups that could monetize in this way, could you have an institution that incentivizes that sort of knowledge creation? The derivative trading desk could be something as weird as their breakthroughs that say this form of quantum computing might be closer to reality than we previously thought. Most big tech companies are betting on some form of quantum computing. The question becomes, when that happens, do you the stock market is the canonical place to profit off of information? If you have information about which of these companies roadmaps seem more realistic, then you could imagine if you are partnered, I don't even know if it's technically insider. I would imagine it's not even insider trading if you know of a scientific result that is not being done by company A or company B, and you do a relative trade on the pairing between company and company B. If that is perfectly legal, then it would be very interesting to see if you could do something like that, build a model, try it out, and look at past data and see if you could predict changes in stock price relatively based on scientific intuition. If so, use that to go back and fund the lab, see if there is a reasonable risk-adjusted return compared to other things. One thing fun about tacit knowledge, this was the know-how that fierce was talking about previously. I really like the idea that you could potentially train more people more effectively and give them like, I'm picturing some weird grad school where you give people PhDs and you strap them with an income share agreement and you make them especially well prepared to do things that are incredibly valuable, knowing that you will see some upside because you will get some like your institution that's training them will get some equity in whatever startups they create that could be like these hard technical startups and suddenly everyone wants to do that because they know there are aligned incentives around trying to deliver that outcome. Also, I think impact certificates have been mentioned once or twice in passing. I'm not going to go in them here for timing reasons, but I think that it's really interesting to start talking about formalization of bragging rights for impact and I think there are some interesting things that we're going to start doing in funding the commons, the conference that we're running in like every roughly quarterly next one's in New York and it will be I think very compelling to create use cases for those bragging rights. If you create a social culture where it's normalized to brag and have one of these things to brag, then it starts creating and ceding demand for these things. So anyway, that's everything I had. Thank you so much.

DrupalCon Seattle 2019: Upgrading vs. Upcycling - How to stay ahead of the curve
|
Slides: https://speakerdeck.com/dasjo/upgrading-vs-upcycling-how-to-stay-ahead-of-the-curve
A full rebuild of a website can be a time and money consuming process. This session is about exploring different approaches between upgrading and upcycling existing websites.
To keep up with online trends, technical debt, or just to be able to refresh their appearance, websites often get rebuilt between every 3 to 6 years. We have helped helped many clients transition from their legacy web systems onto Drupal 8 but not everyone is ready to do the move all at once.
If you find yourself in the situation of having a well established web system that has seen a few years already, but you aren’t ready to spend the time and money to do a full rebuild, upcycling might be the answer.
Upcycling allows website owners bring improvements to their websites continuously without the need to wait for a full rebuild. It reduces time to market and risk and are able to leverage up-to-date technology by upcycling individual parts of the website.
Upcycling can enable you to:
Get the most out of your existing website infrastructure
Benefit from user experience, design or frontend performance improvements without the need to wait for a big relaunch
Improve the editorial experience
Implement your investments as quickly as possible
Use Drupal 8 features

Premier Clark officially opens the Kordyban Lodge
|
Premier Christy Clark joined representatives of the Canadian Cancer Society, BC and Yukon today to officially open the Kordyban Lodge, a home away from home for northern cancer patients and their caregivers.
In May 2011, the government of B.C. announced $2 million towards the $10-million capital cost of the Kordyban Lodge. The lodge was also supported by many donations from the community. The Kordyban Lodge is named in recognition of the single largest private donation - $2-million from the Mary Kordyban Foundation. The lodge's Novak Family Spiritual and Meditation Room and the West Fraser Timber Lounge are named in honour of $1-million gifts from the Novak Family Foundation and West Fraser Timber.

The opening of the Cordoban Lodge means that families from across the north can come and stay in this beautiful facility and support each other as they go through a very difficult treatment process when they're facing cancer. This home was literally built with the generosity and love of northern British Columbians and I'm very proud that our provincial government played a very small part with a $2 million contribution. Today is the special day for all of us filled with pride and joy for what has been accomplished for cancer care in the north. We are honored to share this day with you. The British Columbia government was so pleased to support this with a $2 million donation. Mary, of course, as you know, made an equivalent donation. So many people in this community have donated whatever they can to make this a reality. This is going to make such a difference and I am absolutely privileged to be able to be a part of this with all of you today. My very best wishes and the best of luck to everyone who volunteers and particularly to everyone who requires this space in order to get better. Thank you very much. God bless you.

I love participating in fashion, buying things. So I wanted to show my COVID haul. All of these amazing sales have been happening since COVID took place, which is kind of messed up. But I've also been like utilizing that to shop some really great brands. So today, the pieces that I wore is Altezer and Zacosta, which is one of like my favorite knitwear brands. Anna Kwan, who is new. And I think that she's like incredible. I love all the pieces that she's making. I love knit. So anything that's knit, like that is my jam. Always trying to wear knit, it just forms to your body like perfectly. Brought collection, which I would never buy full price, but on sale. You know, I got you. And of course, reformation. So reformation is cool. I mean, obviously, like their pieces are really cute and super girly. So I had to get a reformation dress. I don't often shop from there. But when I do, I always feel like I love the pieces so much. So it's freezing in my studio. So I had to change. But I hope you guys enjoyed. Yeah. So I'm hoping to do like a lot more fashion type videos. And yeah, just getting dressed up since I like can't go anywhere. Alright, I'll see you all next time.

Whether it's James McDonald, Carl Lentz, Jerry Falwell Jr., now Ravi Zacharias, Eddie Long, there's always somebody, there's always some preacher, some man of God, supposedly man of God, who is falling. You ever wondered why? Welcome back, smart Christians. My name is Cory Miner, and if you haven't done so already, please be sure to hit the subscribe button, as well as the bell notification, also so that YouTube can kind of push this thing out according to their little algorithm. Please remember to hit the like button. All throughout the Christian world, especially on YouTube, one of the main or trending topics that you're going to see is something having to do with Ravi Zacharias. You're going to see that every now and then, it just kind of seems to happen all the time where some man, some leader, happens to fall. The question's got to be, after we've got through the juicy part of it all, after going through all of the gossip being and talking, the question has to be why? Why does this happen? Why do men in leadership positions fall? So in this video, we're going to talk about what causes this to happen, because as many of you know, I can actually identify with them. Being in leadership for some time, I can testify as to what they've gone through, and even what caused it. You need to understand there are two types of leaders who fall. One will deal with more in depth in a second, and in the second one, which we'll just kind of just touch on, those are the men who never should have been involved in ministry in the first place. Those are men who have no purpose in being in ministry, but only do so, as the Bible would say, as a means for gain. Their single and sole purpose is to promote themselves, to get what they can get out of it, not necessarily caring how they are deceiving others all the while being deceived themselves. And so we're not going to talk too much about them, because it's obvious as to how God brings about their fall. But what about the men who start off with good motives, with honest, sincere motives? Men who want to promote God, who want to promote the gospel? Why do they fall? Whenever we start off in ministry, the goal is to promote God, to let people know about the goodness of Jesus, to bring them closer to Him, to also to teach and to educate. And there's different types of ministry, but what ends up happening, if a man becomes effective in that inevitably, what's going to happen? Somebody's going to pat him on the back. His star is going to get bigger. And I don't know if any of you all understand how much that actually goes to your head. You don't intend on accepting accolade and praise, but it can become a bit intoxicating. As a matter of fact, not a bit intoxicating, it becomes intoxicating. When someone tells you how smart you are, or how good you are at this, and pat you on the back and tell you how the Lord is using you, after a while, you start feeling it yourself. You start thinking, yeah, they're right. God is working through me. And you start feeling as though you're bigger than what you really are. Paul gives a warning where he says, not to think any higher of ourselves than we ought to. As hard as it is already, as difficult as it already is, when you have other people thinking that you are better than that, not knowing really what's going on behind closed doors, what's going on behind the scene at home or in your personal life, it's real easy for you to forget about the imperfect you and focus on the good you. Oftentimes you see men fall because of a sexual sin, because the women see a man who is on stage or in front of the camera who's speaking, who's fame is growing, and they may want to be a part of it. They may actually have good intentions, they may have bad intentions. The issue won't be for this video's sake, won't be on them, but it'll be on the men. Men, I don't care what man it is, likes the attention of other women. It's just natural. Whether they even mean anything negative or bad by it, people like to be thought of in a high regard, right? A story. I had a former pastor who went to the hardware store to get some nails and hammers and things like that. And while he was checking, and this was an older man, and while he was checking out the cashier said to him, who was a lady, I just like a man who knows how to fix things around the house. And he said that he went back the following week, not needing a hammer, but buying a hammer anyway, just because of how good it made him feel. And so people, after maybe being beaten down throughout the week, what have you, like to feel like they're not as bad off. And so when a woman gives a man a compliment, if he's not careful, it will go to his head. But not just women who can be the problem. Don't fool yourself. Heterosexual men also like the praise and applause of other men. All our lives, we've looked for it and we've fought for the attention of other males. Ever since we were boys, we wanted to see who was the strongest, who was the tallest, who was the smartest, who was this, who was that. And so as we get bigger, it's not strange to see men jockeying for attention with other males. And so now because we're worried about how people are seeing us. And you might have a good intentional on wanting your, your brand to look good because you don't want the messenger to taint the message. But sometimes it kind of gets flip flopping. Instead of focusing on the message, we focus too much on ourselves, the messenger, and we're worried about how do we look, how do we sound, how do we come across. And then the selfish aspect of living just comes in. We start worrying about what is doing for us. What is our bank account looking like? How many followers nowadays or how many likes? And it's not just about this age because it's happened in the past as well. And what ends up happening is that God's purpose takes a backseat to our purpose. Some of you would say that that's not me. That would never happen to me. There's something wrong with these men. No, no, this is something that's natural to all mankind. The only person who didn't have to worry about this, who didn't have to deal with these sort of temptations was Jesus. But as we said, the Bible is full of men who have fallen for whatever reason. Think about David. Think about people that you don't even think about having fallen because of some sort of character flaw. What about Joseph? Joseph was a little bit arrogant. And so God had to take him through a time to kind of grow him out of that. What about Paul? Paul tells us why he was given this thorn in the flesh so that he wouldn't exalt himself. What about Peter? The Bible is again, it's full of men who had these same issues. And these were men who were used mightily by God. What about Samson? So my point is this, don't you start thinking again, as he says that you are, that you're so ready for this. Again, if any man thinks he stands, take heed lest he falls. Most of us, our problem was we thought that this couldn't happen to us. We might look at some other man who's fallen and think it's not going to happen to me. Some other man cheated, not going to happen to me. Some other man took some money, not going to happen to me. Some other man started making it all about him in ministry. It's not going to happen to me. Well, again, it just might. And the moment you think it won't is about the time when it's about to. But now when a man falls, is that the end of the story? Well, God, I hope not. Because again, I identify with these men, I fall. My story is that I've been in ministry and was doing pretty well in ministry, but also started a business and was doing very well in that. But then I got sidetracked and I won't get into it too much. But I want to talk about what happens when things start falling apart. Oftentimes there are warning signs when the bottom is about to fall out. Just like with David, before he slept with Bathsheba, someone told him, hey, no, that's someone else's wife. As a matter of fact, that's one of your main men. That's one of your, that's one of your general's wife. You know, one, you know, the guy that's out there in the front lines fighting for you, that's his wife. And so what do men who are about to fall? What do they do? We ignore the warning signs. We can come up with some sort of justification as to why I ought to have it. God wants me to have this. Because remember, we're starting to think that we're next to God. We start smelling ourselves and we start believing our own press clippings and we think that God is really behind us. And so if God is for me, who could be against me and who could resist me? Including her, including them. But I want you to notice what happens when David falls. The Bible said that God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. You need to understand something about humble. Humble has a cousin that works the same way. That cousin is humility or humiliation. And they both work the same way. If, if you let it, if your heart is right, they work, they work out perfectly for you. What happened with David as he was humbled, or I should say after he was humiliated, you see his heart. You see the famous prayer that comes about in Psalm 51 where he's asking the lawyers to clean them, to purge it. And I don't know if any of you've ever been purged. Trust me, it ain't a good feeling. The man who hadn't quite figured that out yet, that's a couple of things that he's going to do. The first thing that a man who falls or is caught does, I did it, is you make excuses. Well the first thing, actually I'll take that back. The first thing you do is you lie. You cover it up. Who? Me? What did, what did Cain do when God came looking for Abel? He played dumb. I don't, I don't know where, Abel who? That's what we do. We cover things up. We lie and lie and lie until there's no more way to lie. And then after that we make excuses. We start blaming other people. There was a young man who was confronted about his false prophecies. I'm not going to go into his name, but who was confronted about his false prophecies about the presidential election. And so when confronted, what did he do? He started focusing more attention on what the prophecy was and how it should have happened. Instead of taking the loss, instead of taking what should have been the right road, just to humble himself and say I was wrong. And when a man can get past making excuses, there's another obstacle that comes up that something that he tends to do, that we tend to do. That is, we're willing to take the discipline as long as it's not a long discipline. You want it to hurry up and get it over with. Go ahead, I'll go ahead and take the, I'll sit down for a second. I'll take a break. I'll sit down for about a week, two weeks, right? That's not what God is after. God is not trying to give you something just for looks. God is trying to fix something in our heart. And so what happens is we want to, we want to go through it, but we want to go through it quickly. We want to, we want to be restored in a fast amount of time. But wait a minute, what you did to bring Shane to the name, to the church and to your own self didn't take a week's time, didn't take two weeks time. It's going to take a little bit of time to kind of root that sin out of you to kind of get yourself in a position where God can use you and it's no longer you anymore. And I know that waiting a week, two weeks, three weeks, I know the shame and embarrassment, a public embarrassment is not what you look for, but that's just the first step. And so we're real quick about getting the discipline over and about being restored quickly. Why? Because we want people to forget about the sin that we committed and move forward. I'll give you all a little bit of a tip, especially if you're a man or a woman who has fallen and is trying to move on. Notice I didn't say move past. I think it's a good idea to embrace the sin that you committed. I don't want you to stay there, but I want you to think about what it was that you did and how you can, how God can use you to help other folks who've overcome that same sin. Remember in Galatians when Paul says, if anyone has been overtaken by a sin, that we who are spiritual should restore such a one. And he says to do so lovingly, also considering how we once were. Well, the beauty about falling is that when someone else has fallen, you can identify with them and you can actually show them the road to get out. But we want to be restored so quickly and we end up wanting to skip steps that causes good, healthy growth as well as making sure that we're sorrowful and that we're repentant. Because oftentimes men who fall can fake the repentance part, I'm sorry, cry, what have you, because you do feel guilty and you do feel bad for the moment, but that doesn't mean that the sin that was in you, that whatever it was, a character flaw that caused you to fall in the first place is gone. It's like when the doctor gives you medication to take it, you take about half of the pills or half of medication because you're feeling better and then a week or two weeks later, the symptoms come back. That's because you didn't finish taking it all and it may not taste good or feel good, but you need to take all of it in order for the whole thing to take effect, right? But one of the surest signs that you can tell about a person who has fallen, if they're ready or not, is if they're talking. Men who fall, who haven't learned their lesson, tend to talk and I mean talk a lot. It's a technique called deflecting. You are deflecting attention away from the real issue onto something else. They're talking about other people. They're talking about their past. They're talking about their future, what God is doing. They're even talking about God and it seems like, yeah, this person may have it right. No, no. I had a guy, I had a young man who was in a choir and I told him, you can't sing. The reason why, because he had gotten involved in some homosexual behavior and I said, no, we're not, we're not doing this. Well, I've learned my lesson and God is working with me and I'm not gonna, I'm an overcomer. I know you are. I know you will be, but not today. You're not, you're going to sit down and his thought was, no, I'm gonna get up there and I'm gonna sing. I said, okay, that's fine. Since you're such a hurry to get over and past your sin, we're gonna help you before you utter a word. I'm not gonna fight you, have you physically removed before you get up there to utter one song, one sound. We'll ask the church what they think because many of the church don't know it. What do you think he did? Oh, he voluntarily sat down there and what happened was we kept him down for a long time. What happens is you've got to give God time to work in you. I needed that. When I was caught in sin and when I fell, and I mean fell hard and when I went before the judge, I'm thinking a year, maybe two years, maybe even probation. Well, God had something else in mind. And so when the judge said 20 years, I fell out, not physically, but inwardly. And the question was, why do you think the judge gave you that much time? Well, because I needed that much time. I didn't serve that much time, but the fact that you get that and you got time to spend with God, that was so therapeutic. And what it gave me the opportunity to do was to finally shut up and listen to God. James 3 tells us that many of us should not desire to be teachers or leaders in this case because there's a stricter punishment. And God will definitely try to make an example out of you if you sully his name, not because he takes pleasure in punishing you because he wants to bring about repentance and he wants to bring about a change and to use you. And so I could no longer, nor could any other man, no longer be concerned about my glory over God's glory. And we didn't realize how we got that kind of backwards. It was easy to sort of think about ourselves because everyone else is talking about me. Peter and Paul give us two very good examples of how you should maintain and act if you are a man being used by God, how you should maintain humility. When they're thinking that Paul and Peter are both something to behold, what is their response? In Acts 10, you see Peter's response saying he's deflecting attention off of him back on the God. And then in Acts 14, Paul does the same thing when they thought that he was something great, that he was like a zoos or some great God. And Paul, no, this is about God. This is not about me. Whereas we contrast that to the sorcerer in Acts 8 who wanted to get the same sort of power that he saw when the Holy Spirit fell upon the Samaritans, well, those kind of people will have their rewards coming. And if your heart is not right, if you're not in the Lord, I can promise you the fall is going to be severe, may not be swift and coming. Let me give you a passage to think about as we leave. In Leviticus 10, recall the story of Nadab and Abihu. These are Aaron's sons who approached God in their own fashion with this strange fire. And scholars debate as to what that really meant. Was it the wrong sort of fire, the wrong time? Was it the wrong influence? Was it their own way of doing things where they drunk? Doesn't matter. But whatever it was, they did not regard God a particular way as who he is. And so Moses comes to Aaron after he's lost his son's grieving still. And he says something to Aaron that we should all be mindful to he. He says this, By those who approach me, I will be regarded as holy. God is not some toy to play with. God is just not somebody who he's your buddy whenever you want to. You can just call on him. No, he's God. He's holy. And you would do well. I would do well. We would all do well to treat him as such. So what is happening now? And this is the sad part. This is the scary part. We've got a lot of men on YouTube, on in church today, all across America and in the world who are using the Ravi Zacharias scandal as a means to promote themselves. I've seen some bad behavior and I've seen some people who felt like that this couldn't happen to them. Remember, if any man thinks he stands, take heed unless you fall.

We Asked NHS Doctors About the Trade Documents Corbyn Revealed
|
This week Corbyn revealed un-redacted trade documents detailing talks between the Conservative government and the Trump administration between 2016 - now. He argued they prove the NHS is indeed up for sale, contradicting Boris Johnson. We asked two medical doctors to explain the papers.
Featuring Dr Rita Issa and Dr Timesh Pillay.

Hey I'm Rita. I'm Mesh. I'm a GP in London. I'm a lung doctor. And we were at the press conference where the redacted US-UK trade documents were revealed by Jeremy Corbyn. Yeah those are the ones that in the national debate were redacted. Jeremy Corbyn held them up and now they've been revealed in their full form. They basically outlined trade talks between the UK and the US over the last two years basically. It's a big thing. Yeah. These trade talks have been completely secret. They've been denied by Boris Johnson and the Tory government and they happened while Boris Johnson was a foreign secretary. Yes so we're going to go through them and outline some of the ways it's going to impact our NHS. So in these documents the US wants full market access as any part of future UK-US trade deals. As a doctor that worries me because I've seen some of the effects of companies bidding for contracts in the NHS. But there was one term the US trade official used, negative listing. I didn't really understand that. Yeah so negative listing is basically where everything is on the table apart from if it's explicitly stated to not be. So in these documents the NHS isn't specifically listed as not being on the table, not being accessible for US companies. So even though it's not explicitly included in the trade documents there's actually a really concerning precedent from trade agreements in the past. An example of this is where in Australia the government was sued by Philip Morris which is a massive tobacco company when the Australian government introduced plane packaging on cigarettes. And that basically was because the government was getting in the way of the legal structure of the trade agreement. So that had been compromised, the government was sued and basically it means that governments can't introduce public health strategies that are going to protect the population because corporations can get in the way. As someone who's thinking as a public health doctor if a new threat to the health of the population gets uncovered it may be harder than ever to actually act to protect the health of people in the future. So the US has proposed that patent law should be negotiated as part of any trade deal and patents if you need a bit of a reminder are basically the way that pharmaceutical companies are encouraged to make drugs. So they get exclusive access to selling a medication for a certain period of time after they've made it and that encourages the drug companies to make the drugs because they get a return on their investment. For me the fact they're negotiating these patent laws with a Trump government in the US means that they're trying to extend these laws. That's not explicitly said in the documents but based on the political motivations of both the Boris regime, the May regime and Trump administration it's not exactly going to be fighting for reducing those patents. That means the NHS is going to spend more on drugs. Not only that but in these documents there's arguments against the UK government having the ability to negotiate for drug prices. Now at the moment there's this organisation called NICE, the National Institute of Clinical Excellence and they decide what drugs the NHS is going to buy from pharmaceutical companies. They have a bulk purchasing power where they can negotiate prices and these trade deals are going to threaten that power. I'm going to just bring up one example which is particularly shocking. There's a drug called Humira which is used for inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis. It costs £1,400 in the UK and the same drug costs almost £9,000 in the US. That's because the UK has the ability as a single provider rather than fragmented private providers to negotiate the best deal for its population and of course the pharmaceutical company is going to lower that price if it sees a potential market that it could lose out on. So part of these negotiations relate to food safety and animal health which is indirectly related to human health right? The US describes a worst-case scenario of the UK following current EU regulations. Yeah which is completely absurd to me because when we think about the health of the US population I mean is that something that we're aspiring to? One of the things that was specifically discussed in that documentation was introducing things like chlorine chicken and that is as bad as it sounds. I guess the other thing that they specifically brought up was around our traffic light systems. One of your five a day. So these are really important because as doctors we know how important food is for health. We look at the US and the state of health over there and you know that's not something that we want to be aspiring to and one of the tools that we have in our toolbox is being able to put this messaging on food for example because that puts knowledge and information in the population's hands. So something mentioned in these documents that I wouldn't assume is directly related to health is climate change. Okay and the US representative one of the meetings said that it was a lightning rod issue and this comes from the top. Okay so that means Trump basically. It means Trump yeah. When you're dealing and trade everything's on the table so NHS or anything else. Because I think Trump had pulled out of the Paris Agreement so his track record on the climate is really terrible. I suppose if you've got a polluting car or something that you bought from the US and you're unable to regulate its emissions. Yeah I mean you can't even mention greenhouse gas emissions right. Like that's what the legislation says that you can't put those words in any sort of legal document that we write. So I work in Tower Hamlet and kids have 10% reduced lung capacity. Exactly right. So when we're thinking about this on a population level as doctors I mean we need to be taking action on climate change the way it's going to be impacting people not just like sea level rise and food insecurity but increasing frequency and severity of natural disasters you know all of that stuff we need to just be acting on it and we need to be acting on it quick and we can't do that with this agreement. That's it really. We've tried to touch on the really important aspects of this huge document for health. Yeah so that to me was patent, drug pricing, how international corporations can sue our government, how we're going to be eating chlorine chicken and basically no action on climate change. And the traffic light system. So I'm really worried by this. I have to say this is shocking stuff as a doctor I think all healthcare professionals in fact everyone in the country should be really watching this space and holding these guys to account because I don't want them negotiating the NHS anymore. Rex it was basically sold to us on this premise of taking back control but what these documents show is that we're essentially going to lose control to the US and to Trump. The NHS is actually an example of how we have control. Exactly. To have control of our own healthcare and our own health. So the way that Boris responded to this press conference was basically calling it all nonsense and what I think is nonsense is that we've got 450 pages of hard evidence in front of us and the way that the media respond is by putting up a video of how Boris Johnson likes to eat his scones. Yeah it was the BBC Twitter account and it had a video of him eating a scone. Exactly. I think actually what this shows though is that we just can't trust Boris. He's lied and he's lied again. But there's something worse there as well. The BBC and other media organisations haven't held him to account. They've not asked him the questions. They've not revealed to the public that he has clearly lied multiple times. So we've tried to summarize the key points from this document. Yeah just a little bit really. Yeah it's huge. I'm not sure we can fully comprehend the impact this is going to have. I mean if you want to read all 451 pages you can find them on Reddit. Yeah. And I guess sort of what this shows us is the Labour Party has always said that we can't trust the Tories without NHS and I think these documents prove it. I think there might be some truth in that. The traffic light system. Do you know what that is? I don't know. Give me a sec.

Yn ystod, y cyfnod i'r ysgol yng Nghymru yw Llywodraeth Yn Ymwyllgor yng Nghymru, ddim yn gweld yndyn nhw Douglas Ross. Rwy'r cyfnod, ydyn ni, mae 35 ymddir ynghylch ar gyfer pan Amplai 103, ond mae'n gilydd 270 oes cyfnod i'r cyfnod. Dim rhoi, wrth gwrs, y cyfnodau ei fod yn jagith yr ac mawr. Yn ystod, ond mae'n gypo yw gyffredin Mengell Government margin, ond mae'n gweld yn cymryd ar gael gyda Douglas Ross. Those are not values that I believe in, they are not the values that I believe in, either for us or for Scotland. Of course, ar its heart, this was a budget from the SNP, which was about Scots paying more and getting less. That is what is going to happen as a result of this budget. y gwrs fwyaf o'r economiau i'w wneud i gwyllprosig iawn i, i gweithio'r ystafellau wrth Sgoledyn. Ian Kennedy, mae y First Minister yw yn ei wneud. Rwy'n adeiladau bod yw'n ei wneud. Felly, rydw i'n meddwl i'r First Minister, rydw i'n meddwl i'r First Minister yw i'n meddwl i'r CEO yng Nghymru, yng nghymru yw'r Sgoledyn. Mae'r hyn o'r cael ei wneud i'r meisio'r prysgwysig ynghyrch ar gyfer ynghyrch more of the doctors out of the NHS, to jobs elsewhere or retirement or force them to cut over time? We could lose those nurses, doctors and specialist NHS staff for good." Does Humza Yousaf accept that his hatrises could force key workers out of Scotland's NHS? It is awfully brave, and that is one word for Douglas Ross to talk about the NHS. i'r ystyried gynhyrch yn ei ddodgol, yn Gwyliannolol NHS England? Ond mae'n gwybod i'r Gwyliannol NHS inni i Scotland. Felly mae gennych nhw, ac mae'n gallu ar sicr wrth gwybod i'r tyfnogi, mae'n gwybod i'r tyfnogi i Gwyliannol NHS inni i Scotland, ac mae'n gwybod i'r tyfnogi i Gwyliannol NHS i England i gyd, ac mae'n gwybod i'r tyfnogi i Gwyliannol Conservatives. Ieithgolwch Ros, mae'n ddegwyd yn cyfnodol i'r tyfnogi i Siogledd Pogressif Tabith. n opacity om tlifawr, maen nhw'n fawr, i'w ddweud eich eich mor masyddu o'ch Scotland. The statistics simply don't bear that out. The national records of Scotland statistics from 2021 show that 56,000 people came to Scotland from the rest of the UK. A net in migration of almost 10,000 people. Then why are they coming here? They are coming here because when wrth gael hyn, that is free university education, free school meals for free nursing and personal care for gay people. That is the best paid nurses here in Scotland anywhere else in the UK compared to anywhere else in the UK. I was simply quoting the chairman of the BMA in Scotland and we get a rant from the First Minister? Let's be very clear, the UK government is providing the highlight ever level of funding to the Scottish government. tigt budgets are purely the SNP's fault for wasting taxpayers' money. Well they laugh. Will it be funny if it wasn't so serious? The way that the SNP Government- …lai'r bhr ending on unfair innocent quote, on doomed court cases, on Ivy League degrees for what are exectives before we even start on the bar bill? As a consequence of SNP decisions, shops, pubs and hotels here in Scotland won't get the same rates relief as businesses in England and Wales. The Deputy First Minister is trying to shout down my question about hospitality. Mr Ross, I'd be very grateful if all members could resist the temptation to contribute, while they've not been called to speak. I would say too that I think I'm from Benchys of a particular responsibility to lead by example, but of course each and every member of the Parliament has a role to play in that good behaviour. I've got to say that the smug smirk from Michael Matheson and others on the front bench is really disappointing, because what I'm speaking about is as a consequence of SNP decisions this week, shops, pubs and hotels here in Scotland won't get the same rates relief as businesses in England and Wales. This is what the Scottish hospitality group said. Many Scottish hospitality businesses will struggle to survive, and customers will see prices increase because of this. And the Scottish Grocers Federation said this. It beggars belief that the Scottish Government has once again failed to pass on the 75 per cent relief for retail seen elsewhere in the UK. So First Minister, why are the SNP putting Scottish businesses at a disadvantage? First Minister. And this is why, Presiding Officer, Douglas Ross has no credibility when it comes to economic matters whatsoever. Not only did he demand, of course, that we previously imitate and copy Tory tax cuts, which would have meant we'd have £1.5 billion less to spend on vital public services. He demands we spend every single penny of UK Government consequentials on business relief and tax cuts. If we had done that, we would have seen real terms cuts to the NHS, real term cuts to education, real term cuts to the police service, real term cuts to the fire service. We simply won't choose to do that. And if we had spent the paltry £10.8 million that the UK Government in their autumn statement gave to health consequentials, that would have funded five hours of NHS Scotland activity. We make different choices here, as Scotland, Presiding Officer. Why? Because our policies mean that, yes, while we ask the top 5 per cent to pay a little more in tax, they get more for it. And what we simply won't do is copy Tory tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of our public services. Douglas Ross. Last week, we heard a bold claim from an SNP cabinet secretary that world leaders were lining up to get advice from this SNP Government. Now, it got me wondering, who is this that's been calling for the advice? Has Justin Trudeau been on the phone looking for a camper van? Maybe it's Emmanuel Macron calling the health secretary to hear how to stream the Celtic match from Morocco. Maybe it's Joe Biden asking for advice how to deal with a disastrous predecessor at the heart of a criminal investigation. I don't know. It could have been any of those things. Of course, it would not have been asking the Nats how to build ferries or how to run an education system. And they definitely won't have been asking Humza Yousaf for economic advice because he's making hard-working Scots pick up the bill for his mistakes. He's putting Scottish businesses at a competitive disadvantage. He's driving key NHS staff away and his decisions mean 1.5 million Scots will pay more than people south of the border. Really, First Minister, is this all Scotland can expect from high-tax Humza? Mr Ross. No, First Minister, sorry. It's very important that members address one another courtesy and that is using first names and surnames and avoiding other such names. First Minister. You see, this is the difference between us, Presiding Officer, that Douglas Ross is standing here advocating for himself as one of the 5% top-highest earners in the country to get £754 extra in a tax cut from his Conservative colleagues. The difference is that I'm advocating to make sure that we get a real-terms increase to our NHS. That's the difference between us, Presiding Officer. I believe in an increase to our NHS, an increase to our education budget, an increase to police officers, an increase to fire service as well. And what do you get for our progressive taxation system here in Scotland? You get, of course, the best-paid NHS staff here anywhere in the UK. You get the baby box. You get free prescriptions. You, of course, get free nursing and personal care. You get childcare, the most generous offer of childcare anywhere in the UK. Under the Tories, you get a Brexit that we didn't vote for. You get a mini-budget that tanked the economy. You get a Westminster cost of living crisis that's harming millions of households across Scotland. No wonder, Presiding Officer, that the Tories haven't won an election in Scotland in almost 70 years and under Douglas sources leadership that ain't changing anytime soon, Presiding Officer. Question number two, Anna Sarwar. Thank you, members. Members, I do not want to be shouting into a void, and I would be grateful that you carry yourselves with courtesy and respect. We have many members who wish to put a question today. Question number two at Call Anna Sarwar. Presiding Officer, I'd like to extend my deepest sympathies to the families of those who lost loved ones in the Lockaberry tragedy 35 years ago. My thoughts are with all those, both in the emergency services and the local community, whose bravery and resilience after the event touched us all. Today we take time to remember everyone affected by this tragedy. As we break for the Christmas recess, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff of the Parliament for their hard work throughout the year and to wish you, all members across the chamber, all the staff across the Parliament and, of course, the people of Scotland, a very merry Christmas. Presiding Officer, this year started with Humza Yousaf as health secretary. Throughout the year, things in our NHS have got worse, not better. Over 425,000 patients waited more than four hours at A&E this year. Almost 55,000 of them were there for over 12 hours. At the start of the year, 767,938 people were on an NHS waiting list. Now that stands at 828,398. First Minister, why is it that everything you touch breaks? First Minister. Presiding Officer, you know that Anasawar loses the argument when he goes for the personal attacks, which is what he does regularly and very often. Let me give Anasawar some of the statistics, of course, in the budget that we have brought forward, which Anasawar and his Labour colleagues have, of course, opposed. We are giving a record investment of over £19.5 billion to the NHS. That is a budget, of course, that is ensuring we have the best NHS-paid staff compared to anywhere in the UK. It's a budget that gives, of course, a pay-up lift to our care workers. As for the NHS waiting lists, of course, there are challenges. The global pandemic has impacted health services in Scotland, in Wales, in Northern Ireland and, indeed, in England and right across the world, but we are making progress. If we look at outpatients, long waits and outpatients, I can hear the Labour-Bentley shouting, we're not. Let me give you the statistics. When it comes to outpatients, the longest waits, those two-year targets, the numbers waiting over two years for a new outpatient appointment is down 69 per cent. When it comes to inpatients, numbers waiting longer than two years for inpatients was reduced by 26 per cent. We'll continue to invest in our NHS. Wouldn't it be good if Labour supported a budget that is giving record investment to our NHS? Annas Sarwar. I was quoting Humza Yousaf's record, and let me quote it again. You were the transport minister when the trains were never on time. When you were justice secretary, the police were stretched to breaking point. And as health minister, we've got record high waiting times. No, I'm not quoting Jackie Baillie. I'm sure even she was struggling to be that harsh. I'm actually quoting Kate Forbes, who sat round the cabinet table with Humza Yousaf. And on Tuesday, we saw the consequences of SNP incompetence, waste and a failure to grow our economy. Affordable housing funding cut by £200 million in the middle of a homelessness crisis. Mental health services cut in real terms in the middle of a mental health crisis. And the fuel and security fund scrapped all together in the middle of a cost of living crisis. This is the most devastating budget in the history of devolution. So why is it on his watch that Scots pay more and get less? First Minister. On my watch, of course, because of the actions that the Scottish Government has taken, it's estimated 90,000 children will be lifted out of poverty this year in Scotland. And you know what won't help with tackling child poverty is a true child limit that Anasawa now supports retaining. What won't help, of course, is a bedroom tax that Keir Starmer and Anasawa now, of course, support retaining. And on my watch, of course, in this Government's watch, we have more young people from areas of higher deprivation going to university than ever before. And yes, yes, there was challenges in the budget. I'm not going to pretend otherwise. Let's look at why there's challenges. There's challenges because we've had over 13 years of conservative austerity. Let me read what the Welsh Labour Finance Secretary said. Briefly, First Minister. He said, this is the toughest financial situation Wales has faced since the start of devolution. Our funding settlement, which comes largely from the UK Government, is not enough to reflect the extreme pressure Wales faces. So why is it that Labour and Wales have the backbone to challenge Tory austerity but Anasawa and Scottish Labour don't? Anasawa. Presiding Officer, don't worry. In 2024 we're getting rid of them. What we need to do is get rid of the SNP in competence at the same time as well. Because I'm surprised he didn't talk about his so-called progressive tax rise, which is going to raise £82 million. That would buy you a fifth of an SNP ferry that hasn't even sailed yet. He is simply not a serious politician. And this First Minister is so out of touch. Members? This First Minister is so out of touch. He thinks if you earn almost £29,000 you should pay more tax in Scotland than in the rest of the UK. These are not the people with the broadest shoulders, but they're being forced to pay the price for his failures in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis. Presiding Officer, 2023 will be remembered as the year when the SNP were found out. They have broken the NHS, they have broken the justice system, they have broken the housing system, they have broken the public finances, they have broken the public's trust and they seem to have broken their party in the process. 2023 was a bad year for the SNP. There's times I used to think 2024 is going to be any better. First Minister. Talking about broken, all Anna Sauer does is sound like a broken record, Presiding Officer. Time and time again he comes here demanding more money for public services but opposes every single revenue, raising power and policy that we bring to this Parliament. And of course that's the Anna Sauer of 2023. The Anna Sauer who is touting for the Labour Party put out a letter demanding a 50p rate for those who earn 100,000. What happened? What happened? That was before. Presiding Officer, he moused. That was before. Members. The one thing that absolutely won't change in 2024 is that Anna Sauer will say one thing, one day and then another thing, another day because we know, Presiding Officer, we know that Anna Sauer is not a serious politician. He doesn't think for himself, he waits until he gets the memo from head office and I don't know if Anna Sauer has sent his letter to Santa but if not she should ask for a backbone Presiding Officer because if he finds that backbone he'll stand up for Scotland as opposed to standing up for Ciar Sarmer. Thank you. We move to question number three and I call Mark Ruskell. Thank you very much. To ask the First Minister how the budget will support... I think Mr Ruskell, I'm going to ask that you begin again. Let's hear Mr Ruskell. Thank you Presiding Officer. To ask the First Minister how the budget will support climate action. First Minister. Tackling the climate emergency is key to my Government's three defining missions lies at the very heart of our draft budget. Our capital and resource programmes that we have committed total £4.7 billion to climate positive activities they include £2.5 billion investment in public transport almost £360 million for warmer greener homes a record £220 million for active travel £158 million for nature and woodland restoration and over £60 million to anchor a new offshore wind supply chain. We've made these choices at the same time of course as being faced with a 10% cut real terms cut in our capital budget over the next five years. This is not just because investing in climate action is the right thing, that of course it is. But it's also where the huge economic opportunity lies for Scotland. More jobs, more successful businesses and greater opportunity for the country. Mark Ruskell. Can I thank the First Minister for that answer? That budget commitment to climate and nature is also a commitment to people. Record funding for active travel creates safer neighbourhoods. Investment in nature means more rural jobs and funding for warm homes lifts people out of fuel poverty. Can the First Minister outline how the Government will ensure that the economic benefits of this Government's record investment in climate will reach the very people who need it the most? We are committed to a just transition to net zero and that just transition is of course good for our planet but fundamentally it's good for our people too. The very heart of that just transition is in our people. It's already happening. The renewable energy sector supported more than 42,000 jobs across the Scottish economy according to the Fraser of Allander analysis but we are also taking action to make sure those who need the most help get the most help. Free bus travel, which we will spend almost £430 million on next year is cutting emissions while making the lives of our 2 million people easier in access to public transport. Our warmer home Scotland programme which has already cut the bills and carbon for 35,000 low-income households with up to £700 million of funding made available over the next contract period and we are investing a record £220 million in making our streets better and safer for cycling and walking the cheapest and of course the most sustainable form of transport. Mark Ruskell is absolutely right. At the heart of our climate action we are investing the billions that we are in climate positive actions. Sarah Boyack. First Minister, the Scottish Government is failing to meet climate targets in homes and buildings, transport and land. It still doesn't have a climate delivery plan or a green industrial strategy and they are cut to the energy transition. The just transition fund has been significantly cut, the green jobs fund has gone all together and the 67 million offshore supply chain announcement was just a reduced and reheated figure from before at a time when we need major investment in our supply chains to deliver our green jobs potential. So how can the First Minister say that his Government is tackling the climate emergency when it is failing in so many ways? No, we of course all voted in this Parliament for those world-leading climate change targets but what's most gallant is that every time we bring proposals forward they seem to be opposed by the opposition time and time again and when it comes to a climate change plan of course we will still publish that within the statutory time scale and timelines upon us and of course where the difficulty for Sarah Boyack comes is she's demanding that we spend more and more and more money all the while the Conservatives have car budget and all the while her leader has literally just stood up minutes ago opposing any revenue raising proposals that we bring forward. So I'm afraid Sarah Boyack has no climate credibility she certainly has no economic credibility in this area either. Question number four, Evelyn Tweed. To ask the First Minister what the Scottish Government's response is to reports that Creative Scotland's national lottery extended programme fund has received applications equating to double the available budget leaving some organisations and charities without funding. The Scottish Government is committed to its continued support for the arts as announced in the budget this week we will reinstate the 6.6 million to Creative Scotland for their national lottery shortfall funding for 2324 along with a further 6.6 million for 2425 all Creative Scotland's funds whether funded by the Scottish Government grant and aid or by UK national lottery budgets they receive far more eligible applications than there is funding available to support them due to this competitive process for funding of course difficult decisions do have to be made by Creative Scotland. In the event of an unsuccessful application it is my understanding that Creative Scotland will offer advice to organisations on other potential sources of funding that may be available if those organisations contact their inquiry service. Evelyn Tweed. I welcome the significant investment the budget offers to the culture sector while Labour controls has cut their budget by 10%. As we know culture organisations across Scotland are facing substantial rising costs. Can the First Minister say any more about how the Scottish budget will support the culture sector? Can I ask what support the Scottish Government is offering to organisations like Creative Stirling in my constituency which did lose out on Creative Scotland funding with significant challenges to stay afloat in the year ahead? On Creative Stirling first and foremost an organisation I know and have been introduced to by Evelyn Tweed. I would encourage them to absolutely make contact with Creative Scotland about potential other avenues of funding and of course I will ask the appropriate cabinet secretary to be in touch with Evelyn Tweed in order to see if there is any further support that we can direct Creative Stirling towards. In the budget earlier this week we are increasing culture funding by £15.8 million next year. That commitment to additional funding despite the very significant challenges our budget absolutely faces. Let's put that into some context. In the Welsh budget on Tuesday their funding for support for the culture and the arts was cut by 6.5%. The UK Government has cut its funding to the Department of Culture, Media and Sport by 30% in real terms between 2022-23 and the coming year as well. We will continue to work with our arts and culture sector to ensure that we invest in them but where we can, those that miss out on funding we are always happy to provide feedback assistance in order to see how better we can support them. Question 5, Jamie Greene. To ask the First Minister how the Scottish Government can promote and assist organisations that tackle loneliness, isolation and self-harm over the festive period. Christmas, as we all know, can be an exceptionally difficult time. People can have money worries, loneliness, grief, just a few of the issues that people are confronted with during the festive season. That's why we have launched new content on our mental wellbeing website Mind to Mind to support people who may well be struggling at this time of year. This will be supported by a public campaign over the festive period online and in community settings including restaurants and supermarkets. Since 2021, we have invested £51 million in our community's mental health and wellbeing fund for adults, with 3,300 grants being made to local organisations across Scotland to tackle social isolation. This very much complements action under way funding 53 community organisations who are delivering befriending services and providing opportunities for people to connect. Social isolation, loneliness, mental health and inequalities have been made worse by the pandemic and indeed by the cost of living crisis and this Government continues to respond to these public health issues. Jamie Greene. For most of us Christmas in a year obviously is a time to look forward to but many people dread it. Grief, loss, depression, domestic abuse and indeed loneliness are the unwelcome gifts that this season too often offers them. Sadly last year 762 of our fellow Scots completed suicide and this year over 100,000 will be eating their Christmas dinner alone. On that, can I commend the work of Marion Scott at the Sunday Post and Age Scotland for their incredible campaigning on the issue of loneliness? Can I also say directly to those watching this who may have feelings of despair this festive season that you are not alone? You can call the Samaritans on 116, 123 at any time of the day or night for free if you need to talk to someone. Can I ask the First Minister what more support can the Government offer particularly those charities and volunteers who are always there at the other end of the phone when far too often no one else is? First Minister. A very good question from Jamie Greene. Can I commend him for often at this time of year raising these issues because as we all know everybody in any demographic can be impacted by mental health challenges can be impacted by loneliness can be impacted by isolation and I also want to add my tributes and thanks to Age Scotland and indeed the Sunday Post and others who have done some excellent work in highlighting the issues of isolation, loneliness and mental health challenges that people face at this time of year. To answer Jamie Greene's question directly, that is why the Government continues to invest in local community organisations that provide support from social isolation and we do that through our social isolation and loneliness fund to deliver 53 local projects supporting people and 70 per cent of that fund will be distributed to smaller organisations 30 per cent to larger organisations and that funding supports a whole range of activities many of us will have seen examples of that activity in our own local constituencies such as lunch clubs, social group activities community development, digital connections creative arts, befriending services and I want to pay tribute to every single organisation right up and down the length and breadth of this country for the excellent work that they do especially at this time of year in order to tackle loneliness and isolation. Thank you. To ask the First Minister whether and how the Scottish Government plans to increase awareness of spiking ahead of Christmas and new year. First Minister. I also thank Pauline McNeill for an important question and recognise that she has raised issues in this regard in particular in violence against women and girls on a very regular occasion. Spiking is an abhorrent act of violence and the run-up to Christmas Police Scotland is working with partners to ensure that licence premises are safe spaces for all including through a spiking toolkit to relevant partners. We continue to support the best bar none scheme in delivering bystander intervention training to empower people to address and prevent harassment and indeed provide advice on providing anti-drink spiking measures. Police Scotland is also working in partnership with other emergency services with student bodies, with universities, with colleges and crucially our partners in the third sector to raise awareness and provide support for anybody who is affected. We remain absolutely committed to tackle all forms of violence against women and we encourage anyone who believes that a victim to come forward and report it to the police. Pauline McNeill. Women across the country are being alerted to an increase in spiking and in 2021, worryingly we started seeing cases of spiking by injection. The most commonly used drugs being GHB, rehypnal and ketamine constitutes the crime of drugging in Scotland or can be a statutory crime under the sexual offences act. As the First Minister has already identified it's mainly women who are targeted but not exclusively. The key characteristics of the drugs are that they are orderless, tasteless and colourless and can affect their memory. It can make it difficult to report those crimes. There are great campaigns as the First Minister has already outlined of your spite but I believe prevention must be central to the strategy. Does the First Minister agree that it's very important to continue to have discussions with the night time industry who are already alert to this? It's currently not recorded as a category of crime under the Scottish Government's statistics. The First Minister thought that we should do that but does he agree with Don Fife of Glasgow-based wisewomen who ask that women remain vigilant especially over the Christmas period? First Minister. I do agree with all of that and I'm more than happy for the justice secretary to look at the issue around how that crime is recorded and to have that conversation with Police Scotland. The heart of Pauline Neill's question is absolutely right. Prevention is far better than cure. It's so important that we recognise that the majority of the disproportionate impact of spiking does, I'm afraid, impact and affect women. Therefore, the work that we are doing to address violence against women and girls that preventative work we are doing with boys, to not just change their behaviour but call out unacceptable behaviours is something that I'm absolutely committed to. I'm more than happy to ensure that we work closely with Pauline Neill on those issues but I agree with her wholeheartedly that we should do more to ensure that there's a greater awareness of spiking particularly at this time over here. Russell Findlay. The First Minister says that he takes spiking seriously. His spiking round table was due to meet in October ahead of this year's crucial festive party season but to the dismay of campaigners and victims it was cancelled. So while UK ministers are taking action to protect victims complacent SNP ministers are doing precisely nothing. So can the First Minister tell spiking victims and campaigners when the round table will next meet? I have to say I will not be the only one that will be extremely disappointed in the tone of Russell Findlay's question because there should be a genuine understanding here that for all of our political differences and I have many political differences with Russell Findlay he should not be suggesting that anybody in this chamber does not take spiking seriously. We all take spiking seriously. That's why we have taken a number of actions worked with a number of partners and a number of initiatives in this regard. We will of course continue to work with anybody, not just Conservative members in this chamber but of course with the UK Government on any criminal offence that they are looking to bring forward. We don't believe that there is a need necessarily to create a separate criminal offence of spiking because it is covered as Pauline McNeill said through statutory offences at the moment. But I would say to Russell Findlay to write to him in detail about the actions that we are taking to tackle spiking. We move to constituency and general supplementaries and I call Bob Doris. Presiding Officer, best start food provides support to families with young children under three and is more generous and has a higher uptake than its equivalent scheme in England. However, the Scottish Government recently deported at some families of unused credits of over £600 on their accounts or had not acted with the best start food cards. Does the First Minister agree with me that, with the scheme opening to an additional 20,000 people in 2024, it is vital that that support is fully used and will meet me to discuss myself and the Scottish Pantry Network to discuss a potential pilot project that could see food pantries including those in my constituency becoming strategic partners to support uptake and ensure healthy food is accessible and affordable to low-income families? First Minister. Of course, the Scottish Government will be more than happy to meet Bob Doris' Scottish Pantry Network because the points that are made by Bob Doris are incredibly important and I am very pleased that we are expanding eligibility for best start foods in February so that a further 20,000 people will benefit as pleased to be able to make that announcement earlier this year. While estimated take-up for 2223 is 92 per cent some people have not activated or indeed have stopped using their card, Social Security Scotland or contacted them to remind them that the money is theirs and encouraged them to use it. The card can be used at food pantries and in addition to funding being provided to the network by the Scottish Government Social Security Scotland works closely with the Scottish Pantry Network offering drop-in services and appointments to support people to apply for benefits. The Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice would be more than interested to hear about what the network could do to promote best start foods. Graham Simpson The First Minister's gift to hard-pressed rail passengers was the announcement of a near 9 per cent increase in fares and that is way above the current level of inflation. At a time when we should be doing all we can to encourage more people to use the trains why is the First Minister doing the opposite? The First Minister Of course this is the Government that has abolished and scrapped peak rail fares in terms of our pilot at the moment. This is the Government that made sure that we froze fares for a number of years. Again, we get to the contradiction at the heart of every single Conservative contribution and that is that they are demanding money in this case on rail services but oppose every single revenue-raising option. In fact, they go further. They demand tax cuts for the wealthiest in this country. If we'd listened to Graham Simpson, if we'd listened to Douglas Ross, if we'd listened to Liz Smith, we'd have 1.5 billion pounds less to spend on revenue. Thank goodness we don't listen to the Conservative Party. Jackie Baillie This Parliament passed the Christmas New Year's Day Trading Scotland Act in 2007. Provision was made for Scottish ministers to stop large stalls from trading on New Year's Day subject of course to consultation. The First Minister knows, as we all do, that retail staff work very hard especially at this time of year with longer hours and indeed more demanding customers. They deserve a break. The SNP say that they believe in fair work yet they have rejected calls from our store, the Worker's Union, to fully implement the bill. Why is the First Minister opposed to giving staff in large stalls the day off on New Year's Day? The First Minister We're not saying that that is a mis-characterisation of our position. We do, of course, believe in fair work. We are the party that is proud of the work that we've done in relation to fair work principles that we expect everybody, including the Government, to abide by. I will examine what more we can do more than happy to work with Azdagh, who we have the most respect for, but also retail staff. I think that it's important that Jackie Baillie raises this point at this time of year in particular that our retail staff do an incredible job often in very difficult circumstances as well. I will see what more we can do in relation to the Trading Scotland Act because we are the party, proud that we are the party in a fair work principle that comes in our farreith, and, whether it is fair or not, the industry is doing. It will be the money that we need in this area for future work. It is an opportunity to talk about how we are in a fair work principle ddymiastic abuse. It is abhorrent. I want people to know that the support is available to them no matter what time of year it is. I encourage anyone experiencing domestic abuse to report it to the police, to reach out to services for advice and support as soon as they safely can. Agencies and service providers will be raising awareness of the availability of support throughout the festival period. You can also call the Scottish Government-funded Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0800 027ASV the minister is a former cabinet secretary, the first minister will know that in the past to week refit period saw a role کs and more decently he freight vessel providing cover on the stromen's deskerabster route. This year there will be no vessel at all in the route. What does the first minister think this says about the government's commitment to life line ferry services in Canada off four врangers by internet centimetres in amser lleoligfyrr. Is that a guarantee to my constituents that there will be no repeat of this abandonment in years to come? Of course we take our obligations seriously to our island communities in the budget, and the budget is undoubtedly a demonstration of that. I am more than happy to have a discussion with the cabinet secretary and the minister for transport, to write to Liam McArthur about what options there are potentially around the strongness to a scrap stour route. It is an incredibly important lifeline route and any mitigations that we can feasibly put in place, we absolutely will put in place when the Hamn of Oaks goes for its two week refit. I welcome the significant investment of £66.9 million that the Scottish Government has announced in the offshore wind supply chain as part of this week's budget. In the light of the recent Fraser of Allander institute report on renewable jobs? Can the First Minister outline his Government's commitment to growing the green sector in Scotland as part of our journey to next year? I warmly welcome the study from the Fraser of Allander institute that shows that the renewable energy sector supported more than 42,000 jobs across the Scottish economy and generated over £10.1 billion of output in 2021. That report provides further evidence that Scotland is leading the way in delivering a green jobs revolution and unlocking the huge potential that our energy transition presents. As I have already mentioned in response to Mark Ruskell, it is worth putting again on record that the just transition to net zero is not just a moral imperative of that of course, it absolutely is. It is a huge economic opportunity for Scotland and one that we are absolutely ready to capitalise on. That is why the budget of course was so important in terms of increased investment to ensure that we have supply chains anchored here in Scotland. It was reported yesterday that anti-power, a battery manufacturer, has entered administration. Plans for a £190 million mega-factory in Dundee, which could create 215 jobs on-site and 800 more in the supply train, have been scrapped. It is a huge blow to our economy and our just transition to net zero ambitions. What can the First Minister do to provide assurances to current employees and how can we ensure that we get the manufacturing facilities for the just transition that we need in the north-east? I was very concerned to learn recently that anti-power has entered into administration. That will be a very difficult time for the company's staff, their families particularly at this time of year that people affected by the decisions are our immediate priority. The Scottish Government will do everything in our power to help those who have been affected through our initiative for responding to redundancy situations, partnership action, for continuing employment pace. I understand that the appointed administrator FRP will continue to look for a positive outcome for the Thursday operation in particular. The region has a track record in innovative battery research development in manufacturing, spanning 20 years, and every step will be taken to build on the existing capabilities and associated supply chain. That concludes First Minister's questions. There will be a short suspension now to allow those leaving. This week, both the First Minister and Deputy First Minister have repeatedly said that the UK Government will cut Scotland's capital budget by 10 per cent over the next five years. However, the Scottish Fiscal Commission in evidence to the finance committee has made it clear that that cut will be 20 per cent to Scotland's budget over the next five years. Will the Deputy First Minister and the Deputy First Minister now confirm that the cuts to Scotland's capital budget imposed by the UK Tories will, in fact, be much deeper than they have indicated? Mr Gibson, I am sure that, at this point in your parliamentary career, you are aware that that is not a point of order. Therefore, we will be moving on momentarily to the next item of business.

Why are Battle Royales so BORING? (are they in 2020-2021?)
|
In 2020, the battle royale genre is just too boring. It feels like everyone is a sweat and if you win a game of battle royale, it's not even that rewarding anymore. this might be just Fortnite but I've seen this in Warzone and even my first win in warzone I didn't feel good.

Why are battle royale so boring a few years ago battle royale's were that thing Battle royale's were everywhere and everyone played it So why is battle royale games like for an a pubg boring now? The main reason has to do with the feeling when you win two years ago I got a double for that I would be telling my friends and I would be happy all day But now I wouldn't even be surprised if someone else got a win or if I got a win Oh, yeah, I love it. I fucking want it So why has this feeling of winning changed? Probably because everyone gotten so used to a battle royale's and winning in them that combined with sweaty players Who grind for the past two years, especially in Fortnite really made winning a lot harder and even if you do win You'll still get bored So you would get bored of winning and losing in that cycle is what will kill battle royale games Warzone kind of comebacks this but because of adding the gulag but still though even if you win in warzone is still not that Rewarding still doesn't feel good But um, yeah, so that's the reason battle royale's are gonna die really soon or at least in my opinion

Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. This video is sponsored by Sonoran Desert Institute. If you're interested in a career in the ever-growing firearms industry, arm yourself with an education. Sonoran Desert Institute offers online learning like armor courses all the way up to an associate degree. Visit sdi.edu or call 480-999-4767 to learn more. Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. Today we're revisiting the Ruger American Compact 45 in Cerakote Crane. Let's go ahead and take a few shots and we'll talk more about this. I've owned this for about a year now and really think a lot of the pistol. Seven round mags and a good looking pistol. Now the American series that Ruger has produced has been great. I own several of them. I have this for about a year. I've had it for about a year now and this is the gray model. Now comes Cerakote, Cerakoted from the factory with the gray slide and the gray frame. The grip modules remain the same black and this one has an extended base plate for three finger contact. 3.75 inch barrel, Novak sights, three dot sights, it does have a rail. It's a good looking pistol and a trigger that I'm measuring right at five and a half pounds. Let's take a look at that. Also the gray model comes with three magazines as where the Compact 45 in black only has two magazines so they offered a little bit more there. Here's your first pull. Five and a half pounds reset right there with the trigger bar safety included. Now it's a it's a good looking handgun. It's a good firing handgun. Ruger raised the price of this. It was $599 MSRP but it's now $649 and so we're seeing that across the board as the demand for firearms has increased in the last couple years. It's not just Ruger but Ruger did raise the price $50 on this model. It has a great ergonomic feel. It's a nice shooting handgun. It's been extremely reliable since the time I've owned it. It does have a sight hole indicator there, a pick rail and it's ambidextrous. The controls both slide stop and magazine release on both sides making it left-handed friendly and the three magazines also has a base plate that has a pick extension and a flat base plate for those who want to carry it in its smallest form. Now I remember I did a comparison with this and the Glock 36 and I shot them side by side as fair as I possibly could be and I chose the American Compact 45 because it is such a smooth shooter. It is so well built and I really enjoy the American series plus it's ambidextrous so I'm not left-handed but I know a lot of lefties would certainly appreciate that. Let's go ahead and load it up. We'll take a few more shots and talk more about this Ruger American Compact 45. I mentioned the grip modules but I didn't tell you that Ruger offers three in the case. This is the pro model. It does not have a thumb safety there. Others are available with some thumb safeties. Ruger calls the non-thumb safety models the pro models. Let's go ahead and shoot one-handed and we'll show how this thing disassembles. All right I think it's a beautiful gun. I love Cerakote. Cerakote is such a strong substance added to the firearm. I don't know that there's anything better and if there is I certainly haven't heard of it. The Cerakote holds up so well over time. I mentioned I've had this for about a year now and one of the things I think is so easy with Ruger's is this assembly. Simply lock the slide back and you move this lever down and pull it off the frame. No reason to pull the trigger and here you can see it does have a dual recoil spring and a 3.75 inch barrel and there is the frame. Now you'll look inside you'll see that the entire frame with Cerakote gray not a scratch on it and like I said I've had it for a year and it's like in perfect condition. So the 45 compact the gray model and you know the black model is just as good. It's just that I think this has a cool look and you know as well as I do that beautiful guns matter and people love them and I think this is really cool. There is minimal recoil being such a light gun with a poly frame. The recoil feels extremely manageable with the American Compact. Let's see if the American Compact 45 will charge around by punching a mag home and it will. But now we need a limperous test. American Compact 45 passed the limperous test. So there it is the Ruger American Compact 45. This is the gray model with the 3.75 inch barrel. Great Ergo feel to it. I chose this over the Glock 36. I have a lot of respect for that but I have a ton of respect for this as well. I think it's beautiful. It's functioned well. Like I said I've had it for a year now and I cannot remember one male function with this pistol. Super happy to own it. I had to get it back out. Feature it once again because I think it's pretty cool. If you like videos like this please subscribe and share. I always appreciate thumb's up button. Thanks for watching and you guys be safe.

Isaac S. Villegas and Melissa Florer-Bixler | Oct. 21, 2020
|
Isaac S. Villegas serves as the pastor of Chapel Hill Mennonite Fellowship and is the president-elect of the NC Council of Churches. He is a columnist for The Christian Century magazine and Anabaptist World magazine. The Associated Church Press presented him with their first place Award of Excellence for theological writing in 2018 and an Award of Merit in 2019.
Topic: The witness of Jesus has inspired Mennonite Christians to develop an ethics of nonviolence, which has been a tradition that has sustained the spiritual life of congregational members who have resisted conscription into violence on behalf of the state. While this tradition has focused on what churches allow or disallow within their membership, Isaac will explore how a commitment to peace should involve a politics of anti-violence in society as our devotion to love neighbors as ourselves.
Melissa Florer-Bixler is the pastor of Raleigh Mennonite Church. She serves as the chair of L'Arche North Carolina and on the steering committee for Women in Leadership for Mennonite Church USA, and she writes for Sojourners magazine, Christian Century, The Bias, Anabaptist World, and Geez Magazine. Her book Fire By Night: Finding God in the Pages of the Old Testament was published in 2019. Her new book about how to have enemies will be available in July 2021.
Topic: For pacifist Christians, the terrain of enmity is complex. We hold a commitment to love our enemies alongside the promise of God to send the rich away empty and to save us from the hands of those who hate us. How are individuals both participants in and victims of systemic oppression? We'll explore the importance of identifying enemies for our participation in the reign of God.

We're so glad to be together again today. A brief note that this session is being recorded. So we'll invite you to put the name that you would like to have. And to keep that in mind, if there are particular distractions going on behind you or around you, you may want to, um, to turn off your screen. Um, as Jason mentioned, we have two exciting guest speakers today. I'm so glad that Isaac and Melissa are with us. I'll introduce them in just a moment. I want to just say briefly that. We will hear them speak. And then after their interventions, we'll go into breakout rooms and be able to discuss for a few moments. And then we'll come back and have a little chat. Okay. So, um, without any further preliminaries, I want to introduce you to our speakers today. Melissa floral Bixler is pastor of Riley Mennonite church, Raleigh Mennonite church. Excuse me. She serves as a chair of large North Carolina and on the steering committee for women in leadership for Mennonite church USA. And she writes for sojourners magazine. Perhaps you read a piece in anticipation of the session. She also writes for Christian century, the bias, Anabaptist world and G's magazine. Her book night by fire by night, finding God in the pages of the Old Testament was published last year. And her new book about how to have enemies will be available in July of 2021. And our second speaker is Isaac BJS. Isaac serves as the pastor of Chapel Hill Mennonite fellowship and is the president elect of the North Carolina council of churches. He's a columnist for the Christian century magazine and Anabaptist world magazine. The associated church press presented him with their first place award of excellence for theological writing in 2018. And an award of merit in church. And the award of merit in 2018 and an award of merit in 2019. So you can see that these people are, of course, eminently qualified to do many, many things. The reason that I've, we invited them here today was because of their contributions to help us think about what it means to bear Christian witness amid some of the challenges and the opportunities that exist today. I have really appreciated their contributions that I've read in these various magazines that I've named and the way that I've seen them providing leadership over the years, and particularly in these times. So I thank both of you for making time to be here. And I'm now turning it over to you. I look forward to learning from you and having a rich conversation together. So Melissa, would you start us off? Thanks, Janna for that nice introduction. And it's good to see all of you today, especially one of my church people, Debbie, Debbie Blutzo. So hello to Debbie, who's an AMBS student this year. Lucky, lucky you guys and lucky me. Yeah. And shared a piece with Janna that I had written actually in either March or April of 2019, a different world than the world that we live in now. And I think it's actually, it's helpful every once in a while to look back and see how your work stands up. And this would certainly be an interesting question to think about how much our world has changed from the time I wrote this piece. And that really focused on this question that has been turning around for me. I think in a new way since 2016 and the election of Donald Trump, but what is our, what's the relationship between systemic violence and individuals who uphold that violence? And that really coalesced for me around this one individual, Robert Alfieri, and that's how this essay starts is Robert Alfieri is my enemy. I thought I'd just position, offer just a minute to sort of position myself around, position us around sort of this question about what writing does for me. And just say that I come to writing as a way to work out just the questions that I have at the moment. And writing is an invitation for others to participate in those questions. I am not very original or special. So I assume that if I'm thinking about some of these things, you might be thinking about them too. And this is sort of a space for us to continue this conversation. So I don't really, I don't think about writing as something that necessarily has to sort of stand the test of time. I really do hope that someone takes these ideas and has something better to say in a few years. It would be pretty unnerving to live in a world where that didn't take place. So, so this sort of reflecting back, looping back again and seeing what's still there for us. As the new questions come into us as the new challenges are before us, the sort of opportunity to be here with you and do that today. Yeah, so I wanted to offer this particular piece because I was having these questions about the relationship of violence and individuals who uphold this violence. And all of this was sort of happening around this incident in our community versus a man named Samuel Oliver Bruno, who had been living in sanctuary in Durham. I live in Raleigh a few miles away from Durham, North Carolina. And he had basically been tricked into going to this biometrics appointment and leaving sanctuary to do that. And as soon as he left sanctuary, ice agents don't typically go to places that are sensitive locations, hospitals, schools, churches, so someone had been living in sanctuary for a while. And he was immediately arrested and brought out to this ice van in Morrisville, North Carolina. And this van was almost immediately surrounded by, by people who'd come to support him. Isaac was one of those people. And then all those people were arrested. But what was really fascinating about this moment was the, the reaction from especially the Morrisville police department, which was, they would say things like, we're so sorry, but we have to do this. I don't really believe in this or I'm actually on the side. I'm just doing my job or our hands are tied to sort of these, the sort of echo that was coming. And shortly after this, we had an election that sort of brought in some new sheriffs who all pulled out of the 287 G program that, that was a program that voluntary program from cooperation between ice agents and between local law enforcement. And under that program, Robert Alfieri, who also was the one who was charged with arresting some well and sort of instigating the scheme to pull him out of sanctuary. I announced that there would be a new normal in our area of unscheduled raids, ice raids in this region where we're both Isaac and I live. And so fact, you know, so you go to work in at a factory and all of a sudden I, this van of ice agents pulls up or you are stopped at a stop light and the sirens go off behind you. And this is just living in a state of constant fear. So all of this is sort of co, so this, I'm trying to think about the sort of rising urgency of, of being able to name our enemies and sort of recognizing that the challenge of that for me is then my experience in Anabaptism, but in the church in general, is that it feels like there's a, this leap that happens to the command, love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you. But I really needed to stay in this space first. And I, I needed to, to get a little bit deeper into that question of enmity to name it to really, because it in making that skip to love your enemies is sort of like, there's, there's a lot of questions there. What does it mean to love, but what also, but also who are your enemies and how do we name who our enemies are. And I realized that I was actually in good company in, in this because the Bible makes a tremendous amount of space for talking about enemies and huge swaths of both the Hebrew scriptures and the New Testament are concerned with this topography of enmity. And so this, these are stories and letters and narratives that create this map that, that spends so much time helping us to understand the landscape for when we get to Jesus Beatitudes offering this response of, of the beatified community in response to enmities. And so I wanted to take the, in this, in this piece that I wrote for sojourners and to really take some time to, to think about just a general outline. So things like talk a little bit about that article about how the gospel of Luke actually starts out naming the enemies of Jesus day, you know, it's, it, it names Herod and it, it names Caesar, it names all of the, there's no sort of shying away from, from the structural power analysis that's happening in this area. And you need that information in order to understand how and why Jesus progresses on this journey. And then all of that is informed by the Psalms and these Psalms of implication of calling out to God for justice and, and oftentimes for vengeance. That I think that sometimes we see those as sort of separate movements that happening in, in, in the Hebrew scriptures versus the New Testament, instead of this sort of, that this is like a, like almost like a wave that, that, that that is building over time and crashes in Jesus onto the shores of, of creation of, of human life. And so I ended up writing a whole book about this, but the germ of it is here in this article for sojourners. And for me, what, what I, what I think this sort of beginning exploration into the sort of much longer exploration of this book was digging into enmity as a difference that maintains superiority through power. And I wanted to shift away from the sense that, that enemies are imbued with hatred that, that somehow we have to sense this sort of heat from our enemies in order for us to be able to, to recognize them. And enmity certainly can look like rage and destruction, but I think we also need to be aware that enemy, enemies can wear the guise of paternalizing kindness or institutional bureaucracy or passive acceptance of the world in which we live. And when we are looking for sort of an emotional reaction, we are forgetting that so much of our history is actually the sources of enmity in the, in the programmatic every day actions that happen in people willing to seed themselves over to the, to be the instruments of power for systemic violence. So again, our hands are tied. We're very sorry we have to do this. Don't worry. I don't actually believe in this. And to position ourselves rightly before those questions. Is the, is the place we have to go first before we can even begin to think about asking, what does it mean to love our enemies? Yeah, so it's a little bit for me. And I'll turn it over to Isaac. Actually, before Isaac speaks, I want people just to take a moment, because I'm sure that was, that was a lot. That was, that was great. Thank you so much, Melissa. So maybe just take a moment and jot down a couple of your questions and thoughts that then we'll take into the conversation. All right, thanks Isaac over to you. Thank you. Good to be with all of you here. Good to see your faces, your names. Thank you for the invitation. Yeah, in a lot of ways, I guess what I'm going to say is just kind of like a, maybe like a perhaps boring footnote to some of what was already shared forgive me for my particularity here. But yeah, I was going to talk a little bit about how some of this, I guess, makes sense in my own Mennonites in a Baptist tradition. These conversations about how to think about ourselves in the world and perhaps in relationship to enemies that we might make along the way. So yeah, so maybe a little boring history lesson you all can let me know. But I thought I'd start with the way that the, in terms of like Mennonite, the Mennonite tradition, our debts to the Schleitheim Confession. Schleitheim Confession was a document that a bunch of people got together and a Baptist got together in 16th century and decided like this is who they were going to be in the world. And one of the things that comes very, comes through very clearly in that document that became a unifying document for anti-Baptists and then later Mennonites was the sense of being a persecuted minority in Europe, in the context of Europe, in Switzerland, Germany, and then other communities throughout Central Europe there. And as a persecuted minority, they were called to separate themselves from the violence of this world. So people who were inflicting violence upon them, you could say, that they wouldn't respond in kind, that they would live out the life of Jesus and not return violence for violence. So their posture was one of separation. I mean, throughout the document, it's a call to, there's just a few lines. Thus all who follow the devil and the world have no part with those who have been called out of the world unto God. And these anti-Baptists were the ones called out from this world by God. Continues to liken the world to Babylon and Egypt, those Old Testament figures, and the church, the anti-Baptist church, as the little flock of, the humble little flock of Christ. That's how they talked about themselves. So yeah, so just in terms of that's how they thought about those, and since they didn't resort to violence, their only form of punishment of people in their community who would be violent or harm one another or whatever it might be, was exclusion, excommunication, what's known as the ban. So since you can't really hurt someone, you can't put someone in prison or jail or anything like that, the worst you could do to somebody was to kick them out of the community, which is still something we, the government decided to prioritize the men and knights practice today, and official capacities, like ordnation, recent news about John Rempel's ordination being terminated would be an example of this kind of this kind of punishment. The Slythethime Confession became significant in the life of US men and knights in the mid 20th century, Manonites here in the United States. Harold Dender was a kind of a, what would you call him? He was the gatekeeper of Mennonite identity for a long time. Dean of president of Goshen College, I think, something like that, but much more larger role in all Mennonite institutions. Anyhow, so he kind of revived this sense of 16th century anti-baptism, these voices as being helpful for our lives today or their lives today in mid 20th century Europe or mid 20th century United States. And these voices against like basically serving in the military. I mean, that was the issue that he identified as most significant for his people. He used his voices to say, you know, we can't be conscripted in these wars and World War One or two. Therefore, we need to be conscientious objectors to those forms of violence. So yeah, so this was a useful document for him in making violence conversations about violence, strictly about participation in war and Mennonites didn't do that. It was an important movement, important, you know, thing not to go off and kill in wars. But there's a lot that was occluded when that became like the central focus of what counts as violence. So we have to look to other places, not as, you know, kind of minoritarian figures within the Mennonite and the Baptist tradition to help reveal kind of like everyday violence is that are part of our lives that the men in Mennonite institutional power really talk about. So, for example, I mean, I, someone who I think is very significant in thinking about our complicity in global violence was Doris Jansen Long anchor. She was kind of awakened through Mennonite Central Committee's work of humanitarian outreach throughout the world, and realize that we participate in violent economies. That are supported by political sovereignties that have their power because of militaries. And we need to take that seriously that you know even though I'm not acting in a form of violence that I can decide like an everyday form of way of hurting somebody that participation in economy and food ways hurts people. So this continues to be significant for us, especially right now in this pandemic as you know people are harvesting our fruits and vegetables. And then getting infected out in the fields. I grew up in California so watching all the images of people migrants harvesting strawberries as they're like being choked by by the fires was very vivid vivid to me. Long anchor Doris kind of made that an important thing for us to care about as Mennonites in terms of institutional energy. Along the same lines MCC was important in paying attention to way that you know violence is not just about war it's also about violence against women. So MCC in the in the 80s started what was called the Committee of Women's Concerns. And it was related to their peace and social concerns committee. I'm kind of out of my league and talking about this I'm sure I assume Janet probably has much more to say about all these interconnections but but just to say that MCC kind of made sure that it's not just about anti-violence intimate partner violence, violence against women counted as part of what it meant to be part of what meant to be a Mennonite in terms of our peace witness. Same sort of thing in terms of race relations in the 70s. People of the mind of what's called the Minority Ministries Council emerged people like Vincent Harding and others confronted Mennonites on their, their what's to say their the comfort with which Mennonites have been able to live in this country and benefit from the power of whiteness is actually what the language he used he talked about the power of whiteness among Mennonites in the 1980s 1960s. Anyhow, I think all of that is just a way of talking about how, for me, coming to the question of what it means to think about our peace witness and to be Mennonites, part of this tradition is to realize that violence has a whole lot more to do than just wars and some of what Mozart and shared one aspect of that in terms of the enforcement of borders. I mean just to say to another way to make that hit home but just to realize that, you know anyone, all of us, those of us on this call who are citizens of the United States. Our rights and privileges depend on the violence of ice on the violence of border enforcement. There is no such thing as US citizens without 500 children being separated from their families. Can't find their parents. That was the news that broke yesterday, what ice has done. So just the thing about this. The conversation about enemies and our identity here in the United States has everything to do with the benefits and privileges of citizenship. Considering all of that this world that we live in. I like to talk, I'm beginning to talk about what it means to be Mennonite is not to not use the old language of non resistance or non violence or those permutations of those words. I think it's important to think about this tradition instead to think about our posture in the world as anti violence. Picking up on this tradition that I laid out here with MCC the women's concerns folks making sure we talk about intimate partner violence. Long anchor making sure we talked about economies and food ways of violence. Mennonites in German town in the 17th century, signing on to their, you know, this anti slavery documents. The ways of confronting the way that our lives are embedded these forms of violence and that the only way to be a Christian in them is to be anti violence to take an active posture of protesting violence that is part of our lives that infuses our lives. That sustains the comforts of our lives. And to make sure that when we talk about violence that we're talking about. Yes, things foreign but also, you know, domestic life. We're talking about things in this in our churches and also in the streets, things at home and also in prisons, that our posture of anti violence involves us in a commitment of peace to peace and all of those different places. We call it a vigilance of vigilance to the abuse of power anywhere, you know this vigilance against the powers of principalities was a language that I remember hearing thinking a lot about. But also, you know, it's a way that that powers and principalities. Yes, I'm all about like in rid of those that's bad but also just to realize that that kind of language, kind of abstracts us from the oppressed violences that we'd rather not pay attention to because they're too much a part of our, our lives so, you know, just the abuse that happens at the hands of the powerful among us in our, in our churches in our world, in our homes in the streets. So yes, I'll stop there. I'm going to say but that's what I got for us. Take it again another moment jot down your thoughts. Thank you so much Isaac, that was really rich. I suspect that we all have a this has been very exciting and provocative. And so I'm looking forward to going into breakout rooms now. And I know that you all have questions and comments because you have been sending them in the chat function already so fantastic. Jason I think that we have two questions that Isaac and Melissa posed ahead of time that draw a through thread from each of their interventions so we'll post those in the chat. And then we'll be going into breakout rooms where you can discuss those questions for seven minutes Jason. Is that what we're doing. Seven minutes. Okay. Please introduce yourself. Please respond to one of the questions, and then continue around the circle. And then if you have a chance, come back to the other continue discussion but want to make sure that everyone has a chance to, to voice a response into these questions or to the presentations. And then we'll come back into our full group session when so Jason's going to send the invitation now I believe. And when that comes, please accept the invitation so that you can enjoy, you can join your breakout room. All right, so you should be getting your invitation here. We'll need to leave. So this could be a time to do so if, if you're not going to join the breakout but I'll call you back here in about seven minutes is that is the story of God's redemptive love through the people of Israel into and then incorporating Gentiles in the church. And so what does it mean to put yourself into the new order. And that that is not a possession that the that the church has is a gift that we receive oftentimes from unusual and unexpected places. And so, and so the ability to recognize that there are, and there are ways that we are invited into the new order into the new sort of social rearrangement and economic upheaval that's happening, even in places that are not in, in church spaces I think is, and is is is the gift that's waiting for us to be received. And I hope we receive it. I just want to highlight one thing before we go on to the other questions that are now coming in quickly. And that is that I think a really helpful, more explicit, in some ways, decentering of the church. A really important contribution of an abaptist thinking has been to recognize the church as a political agent. That's essential. I think it's also helpful to recognize that in, in these situations that in this movement of what you're calling with cone movement towards the new order. And to recognize where the spirit is moving, like say in social movements and what are the ways that we lend our power to that work of the spirit that is going on outside of ourselves. And that decentering work, I think that's pretty hard work. And I think that's a, that's a challenge to us right now. Melissa, a question for you on enemies and it came in two parts. So I'm going to start with it and if the person who raised this question wants to identify themselves are welcome to, but this person wrote, we in our group discuss that other anti-abaptist backgrounds. So an abaptist some people in this, in this conversation have come from an abaptist backgrounds. And this person says, this is very much in contrast to my strongly military family. So, what do you do or what would I do, as I realize that, or I'll just read that here, what do you do as you realize you're Trump supporting Christian nationalist family and friends are in many ways enemies. And then the second part of the question is, in my case, my parents provide childcare and other forms of support for us. And we have an ongoing relationship. They know where we stand in contrast to them but we don't discuss it regularly, because it would rock the boat of us caring for our children together. So, about these kinds of situations. This is me by the way, Laura Rhodes. Hi. Thanks, Laura for posing that question. Yeah, that's a really, that's a good and important question and one, you know that I am there, it does feel like there is this. You know, we have both an interesting dynamic in the New Testament between Jesus, basically telling us we will become enemies of our kin, right to follow Jesus that. It's interesting that he immediately moves into into how he will also call people to lay down their possessions and and give up their and give up their money and everybody shocked right the site and this is to the disciple this is can't believe this. And, and so I think we have this this real strand which strain within the New Testament of the sense of the play like we become enemies to the people who are unexpected like the people who we think that are we have the most natural people of our same religious group, our family members, and then a new family is created out of out of the people around us. And so I think oftentimes the question for me is, are we doing the work to create the kind of communities and families and support networks, so that people can actually be joined to people who are doing the work of Christ liberation, or are we saying like oh actually we need you to become enemies to your families but we don't really have mutual aid support networks and we're not providing you childcare like I, for me it's those are sort of questions on that that we have to be asking at the same time. The reason from Jesus is because there is a better life out there, among, among the, among the family of God, and the kingdom as in a Maria sassidious calls it, and, and, but, but I think that the challenge for the churches are we willing to actually step up into the role of, of being family to one another in the ways that, that oftentimes I, I don't always see that. That's really helpful thank you. Yeah, thanks for asking that Laura. Question for Isaac. This has come from, I'm going to read the question as it's posed here. You can also know that it's coming from different directions and I would also hear a fair amount in my piece of these classes. So this reads, Isaac identified the many kinds of violence in which we are complicit. Is there a hierarchy of violence, suggesting where we might focus our resources, time, money, etc. and assuming one cannot tackle everything. Oh, you're a mute Isaac. Thank you. I wasn't able to myself that for a second. Yeah, no that's really, we are finite creatures. And the world is very big. Yeah, no, that's a really good question one. I don't know if this is helpful at all. I mean, part of me feels like what one answer is just the answer that Jesus offers with the parable of the of the Samaritan who stops and helps the person, you know all other people who ignore this person on the side of the road, because they have more important things to do. And then the Samaritan who decides to interrupt his life and intend to healing the person. So it feels like part of it is, you know, whatever confronts us today is in this next hour is the one is probably the violence we should be paying attention to. I think another image that has been helpful for me at least is from Fred Moten Fred Moten is a black studies professor used to be a Duke now I think is in the UC system in California. But he, he talks about how what it means to live our lives uses the analogy. The analogy of the fort. So settler colonialism operates by establishing forts. Oh actually there's like this great map going around, at least I saw on Facebook the other day people sharing it about how many like places in the United States names of town cities are called like Fort whatever, as kind of a remnant of this imagination of what it means for European settlers in this context. Anyhow, so the image of the fort is what Fred Moten offers us and he says the colonial imperial violent powers of this world impose themselves in our lives like a fort. And the thing about a fort is that forts are always surrounded by people. Forts are always under threat of collapsing. It's actually a very precarious life to live to establish your power as a fort, because you're always worried that the people were going to rise up and breach the walls. And he offers that as an image for thinking about our lives in that the powers of this world present themselves as all encompassing as impermeable to to our efforts to overthrow them. But it's the case that if people organize themselves and confront the violence is everyday violence is in their lives. We will discover that they're all interrelated. We will handle the violence that we see in our own life that confronts us, we will and we, you know, confront that we will discover that somehow it's connected to another form of violence, all because of this power that is this tiny fort in our lives with a lot of guns, but still just a fort. Thank you that's a really helpful image. I wonder if to that we might also think about the tradition of understanding an abaptist communities as part of a broader movement. So that we don't have to ask ourselves how what am I going to do about all of these kinds of violence, but to understand ourselves in relation to and to really cultivate communities that are in the community to cultivate communities and networks of churches and networks of networks that are really working on on these different fronts together and to be a part of the knitting of those of those different efforts and of those organizing efforts. I know that's something that has been important for me to think about. We are at 130. We could continue having a really rich conversation. But I am so grateful to both of you. Thank you Melissa. Thank you Isaac for coming and joining this conversation. We'll look forward to continuing it in the weeks and months ahead in different ways. Let's stay in touch. So thank you. Let's let's everyone give a round of applause to Melissa and Isaac for being today. Thank you so much. Thank you for the invitation and thank you for everybody for your conversation here. Just a word about our next session, our next group session together or our next presenter on November 4. So the day after elections, we invite you to join witness colloquium for a conversation about the elections, the US American landscape and how an abatism features in the bigger picture of political realities with the father daughter duo doctors Leroy and Melinda Barry. For many years as many of you already know Leroy Barry taught history and political science at Goshen College, and he's also a bilingual general practice lawyer. Melinda is of course an associate professor of theology and ethics at AMBS, and she will facilitate the conversation. So, we are looking forward to that, and we hope you join us for that next time. And with that, we will officially conclude our time together. Thanks again everyone for for joining us and being here. Thank you. Take care. Take care.

Suspense - Reprieve (#139)
|
Suspense - 05/10/45, episode 139
Brought to you by the Old Time Radio Researchers, courtesy of The Suspense Project
This is the first of two appearances on Suspense for John Garfield. There were supposed to be more, but his career was hung up by Red Channels and the resultant blacklists, and finally by a heart ailment that took his life at the age of 39.
The gimmick to start the story is its explanation of the one-word title, “reprieve,” and its multiple meanings. This is used by authors to preview the content of a story and then to tie up the story’s plotlines at the conclusion. It helps keep the attention of the listener and gets them to buy into the storyline. It is similar to the original opening of Suspense in 1942 which listed its meanings and was used again at the beginning of the 60-minute debut broadcast in January 1948.
The story has Garfield’s character, Steve, participating in a payroll heist with two others. In the process of getting away, one accomplice shoots and kills the other. Steve is arrested for the crime and is sent to jail, proclaiming his innocence. A reporter hears about his story and helps win his release. But the accomplice is still at large… and has the money.
Reprieve was originally planned for 1945-04-26, but was kicked out of that slot when Two Sharp Knives was rescheduled to that date after it was postponed on 1945-04-12 for coverage of the death of FDR. 2SK was kicked out of the schedule yet again when the United Nations peace conference was held and finally was broadcast in June. Reprieve was just bumped up two weeks to its broadcast date of May 10. Many times the rescheduling had to do with the movie set schedule of the guest star.
Two network recordings and an Armed Forces Radio Service (#102) recording have survived. It is not known to which coasts the network recordings were made, but they each have different timings to the network ID. The 4 seconds to ID recording designated “(4s)” is the best-sounding recording. The other network recording is in low-quality sound and is 10 seconds to ID, “(10s),” and the AFRS recording is drawn from it. Times are approximate:
4 sec to ID 1:19 “(humf) well the first part I guess...”
10 sec to ID 1:21 “Well the first part I guess…”
AFRS 0:34 “Well the first part I guess...”
John Garfield's career was going well and growing at the time of this broadcast. Destination Tokyo and They Made Me a Criminal were in the theaters. A few years later, his career trajectory would head downward as he had Red Channels issues. He was in the process of correcting them with the planned publication of I Was a Sucker for a Left Hook, but died suddenly in 1952 from a suspected but undiagnosed heart defect at age 39. There was no heart imaging technology at the time to make an accurate diagnosis, but a defect was suspected. The extent was not known until his death. Many blamed the stress of the blacklist for his demise. His heart problems would likely have been treated successfully with today’s cardiology knowledge and technology.
The cast: JOHN GARFIELD (Steve Hannibal), Cathy Lewis (Laurie Ware), Wally Maher (“Murph”), Joe Kearns (Signature Voice / Joe Tonelli / Foreman), Joe Granby (Rail Detective / Judge), unknown (Gurley the lawyer)

Now, the Roma Wine Company of Fresno, California presents Suspense. Tonight, Roma Wines bring you the suspenseful play called Reprieve, starring Mr. John Garfield. Suspense is presented for your enjoyment by Roma Wines. That's R-O-M-A, Roma Wines. Those excellent California wines that can add so much pleasantness to the way you live. To your happiness and entertaining guests. To your enjoyment of everyday meals. Yes, right now a glass full would be very pleasant, as Roma Wines bring you a remarkable tale of suspense. And with Reprieve and with the performance of Mr. John Garfield, Roma Wines hope indeed to keep you in suspense. This morning, my lawyer, Mr. Gurley, said he was trying to get me a reprieve. I looked it up in a dictionary I got. It says Reprieve to suspend temporarily the execution of a sentence upon and relief for a cessation from pain or ill. Well, the first part I guess Mr. Gurley can get, he knows all the rules. But the second part, cessation of pain, that's up to me. Maybe when I've spilled it all out and put it on a table where I can look at it. And hear about the kid about Lori. Maybe then it'll come. Cessation of pain. I don't know. Anyway, I can try. Okay, name, Steve Hannibal. I already had a namey something, I guess. She read the name Stephen in a book, if she could read, which I doubt. Age 34, Health Excellent. But wait a minute, you don't want to sell me insurance. Because tonight I'm a state prisoner, 80483, registered in cell 77 of the state penitentiary. That's the death cell. I'm in for murder. I was always the bright boy, but right now, I don't know, I'm mixed up but good. And not about being here and not about murder, the pen is my home away from home. Murder, why, in my social set, murders as common as chicken pox and Pierce 137. No, it's that last year of honest toil that threw me for a loss. Because I wasn't mixed up at all in the night that Murph and Joe and I blew out of Chicago. That was a minor inconvenience, right in line with the way I'd always lived. Let's see, it was nearly two years ago. Murph and Joe and I and the boys had knocked off a payroll. A good clean job, except for a couple of guys getting hurt fatally. And the Murph was tipped off that one of the boys he didn't know who had squealed at a cops. So Murph knew we were hot and he came up to my room on Madison Street. I'm leaving town, Steve, tonight. Yeah, it's an idea, so am I. Yeah, yeah, we better blow. You and me and Joe, huh? And the rest of the boys? Well, I can't take care of everybody, Steve, you know how it is. Sure, I know. You take care of the ones who you can't get along without and do your thinking for you. Oh, that ain't it, Steve. Cut it. Well, okay. Well, we got around 20 grand. 23. Yeah, sure, sure, 23. With that dough, we can go down to Florida. Yeah? Yeah, and look down there all winter till it heats off. You think that's a bright idea, don't you, Murph? Why, sure. Why not? We take a big, shiny suite in the Paradise Hotel, pick ourselves some dolls. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Well, that's just what we're not going to do. What do you mean? We're not going to travel first class, spread dough around in places like the Paradise, accompanied by any dolls. And why not? The dough is marked, bird brain. The serial numbers have been written down and they'll be looking for that kind of dough in places where dough changes hands. Places like the Paradise. Well, we could go to some other place, like a Roman house in St. Pete. We could be smart if we put our minds on it. Yeah, like what? Like putting that package of dough out of circulation in a safety deposit box here. You know that's all the dough we got? Sure, but we can get along without it for the time being. It's worth a little discomfort to beat a murder app. Okay, okay, say you're right. But we still have to leave town. We'll leave, Murph, but this is how. I figured I'll never look for you where there isn't a store shower. So we'll fool them. We'll ride the rails. You can play that nine of hearts, Joe. Huh? Where? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was just going to. You were, huh? You never saw it. Not a guy outsmarts himself in solitude. Hey, it's cold in this boxcar, Steve. Yeah, just pick up the phone, Murph. Tell the management I'll give you more heat. All right, all right. I just said it was cold. At a time like this, be glad it's cold. Uh-uh, Joe. Mustn't cheat. I wasn't cheating. Oh, new game, huh? Where you slip the card under when you can't play it. Ah, so what if I'm cheating? It's my skin, ain't it? You're absolutely right. Ah, I wonder how many of the boys have been picked up. Well, I couldn't take care of everybody, Steve. Fine, and have them been picked up. Why should they be? Oh, boy, they're three you've been looking for. None of them have been picked up. Who's protecting them, Joe, you fairy godmother? Oh, why would the cops pick them up? They know that Murph used the gun. Huh? I mean, they probably guessed Murph was Trigger Man. Why, you dirty... Shut up, Murph. What else did the cops probably guess, Joe? Well, how would I know, Steve? Honestly, I only thought that maybe... Talk, Joe. What else did they guess about me? Oh, nothing about you, Steve. Honestly, they... Spill it. Spill it! They knew Murph was Trigger Man, and that... You screaming, dirty rat you. And that he took the dough, no one else. Hey, Steve, I didn't tell them anyone else was on the job. I thought if they picked up Murph, then you and me could... Hey, Steve, Steve, stop Murph. Get back, Mike. Let him finish. Go on, finish. I didn't squeal on you, Steve. You gotta believe me. Steve, you gotta... Steve, stop Murph. You can't let him... Steve, no, don't! That was Murph being Trigger Happy. Joe went down sort of slow and quiet. Like the movies you see of a parish who's settling on the ground. I think he twitched a little. I looked out and saw the train was slowing up and we were coming into a freight yard. And not 50 feet across the tracks, I could see a couple of guys heading our way who looked like railroad dicks. I thought fast, like always. Murph was hot, very hot. And being shy on brains, if they picked him up, he'd lead them to the payroll door, like a homing pigeon inside of 24 hours. And I hadn't anything not pinned on me for a few years. If anyone took the wrapper, it would have had to be me. If I ever wanted to smell any share of that 23 grand. And this was a wrapper I thought sure I could beat. Luckily, I go up for a year for manslaughter, claiming self-defense. Lucky, I bluffed my way out of it all together. I talk fast to Murph. And when the box cost up opposite those dicks, I had Murph's gun in my hand. Three, Mr. I am quite loud, boys. It's the end of the line. Hey! What's the matter, buddy? One of those guys has a gun. What are you doing with that gun, brother? I don't know. And what's wrong with the other guy? He shot him. I was over at the other end, minding my own business. And these two guys were yelling at each other. Okay, okay. Now drop that gun, mister. I'm coming in. Is it dead? Oh, dead at her mackerel. All right, mister. Tell me about it. I... I don't know what happened. It was his gun. It just went off. Yeah? Did you see it? You over there. I didn't see nothing. I told you I was down at the other end of the car, minding my own business. They've been yelling at each other for hours. I didn't pay any attention to the gun went off just now. Honest, I don't know anything. Okay, keep your shirt on. Looks like you're in trouble, mister. I tell you, I don't know what happened. Yeah, leave it at headquarters, buddy. Yeah. Maybe you'll remember better at headquarters. I don't know what happened. All right, Remy. No matter what you remember, the rap is murder. For Suspense, Roma Wines are bringing you as star John Garfield, whom you've heard in the first act of reprieve, which is Roma Wines' presentation tonight of Suspense. Between the acts of suspense, this is Truman Bradley for Roma Wines. Have you ever noticed the next some women have for making their guests feel welcome? One such woman is the renowned hostess Elsa Maxwell, and here's what she suggests you do the next time friends come to dinner. Serve well-chilled Roma California sherry before dinner and later in the evening. You'll find glorious amber golden Roma sherry is a gracious touch that's sure to get the meal off to a good start and adds to the evening's pleasure. And don't worry about fancy glasses, it's the wine that's important. So be sure it's that good Roma wine. Because Roma Wines are so reasonably priced, any family can afford to serve them regularly. Distinctive Roma Wines are grown in California's choicest vineyards. Beginning with choice wine grapes, picked and gently pressed at the top of their flavor then watched over and developed with all the ancient winemaker skill of Roma's famed wineries. The quality of Roma Wines never varies. Always the same tempting flavor. Yet all this goodness is yours for only pennies a glass. No wonder more Americans enjoy Roma than any other wine. R-O-M-A Roma Wines. And now Roma Wines bring back to our Hollywood soundstage John Garfield as Steve Hannibal in Reprieve. A tale well calculated to keep you in suspense. I'd been in worse spots. The charge was murder first degree. But I knew I could cut that down. The best thing was the tin mirth loose without checking on them. And Joe was unidentified. I dreamed up a name I said I knew Joe by. Read something or other. And it went down all right. And so then I settled down for what might be an extended vacation. A vacation that would earn me half of 23 grand. Only one thing bothered me. It seems that a town we picked to kill Joe in was going through one of those reform spasms and the papers were really lathered up. And my case was made to order for them. A crime that could get wholly about without stepping on any local toes. While I was waiting trial, they fried me good. And I burned about it. So that's why I didn't exactly clap hands when they told me a reporter was coming in to see me. And I didn't shout hallelujah either when I saw it was a doll shop looking all right, but still just a doll. Hi, chick. You're Steve Hannibal? Yeah. I'm Laurie Ware of the news press. I'd like to get your story. Look, sister, your job is writing. If you can't do it alone, you shouldn't have had the job. I mean your side of the story. No, it's not nice of you to take an interest. Oh, please. I wish you'd listen to me. Go pet your paper somewhere else. Please. Don't you understand English? I don't blame you for being suspicious of me. You see, I know the papers haven't been fair to you. I know they've been trying your case before it comes to trial. So it happens every day. And I feel sure there's more to this case than has been told. I've got a feeling that... You've got to be careful of those feelings, baby. I have a hunch that you didn't do it. Maybe you were framed. So, uh, what if I was? Well, I don't know how much I can do. Except I know that if you have a story, I can get it printed. And, uh... that will make all the difference? I don't know. At least when it comes to picking your jury, there'll be some people in this town who haven't made up their minds. Well, uh, what is something in that? Well... Okay. I'll tell you the real McCoy truth. Oh, that's wonderful, Steve. I'll take it down. Well, there isn't much to tell. I was just what the papers call an innocent bystander. I was asleep when it happened. How many men were in the boxcar? Before I went to sleep, there were six or seven. The guys jumped off. Well, moving pretty slow, then, because the train was coming into the yards. But at the inquest, the police said you were holding the gun. Yeah, sure, I was. Yeah. The cops yelled at me, and I saw... Well, I saw I was holding it. Someone had planted it on me while I was half asleep. And the old boy in the corner said I'd done it. Yes, he... he said that you were fighting with... I know that I'd been fighting with Red. Well, I don't think he meant to frame me, but he kind of got me mixed up with one of the guys who scrammed. That's it, Steve. You wouldn't just stand there waiting to be arrested with a gun in your hand, or you would've thrown the gun out. Well, like, Clam, I didn't have time, but... but, uh, it's an angle. And I'll pound it, Steve. I'll get your lawyer. Yeah. I guess I'll need one. You'll need all the help you can get. What a doll. Sold on me even before she got the pitch. And what made my hand all aces was that the girl could really write. She had the news press giving me more space while the other papers had to pick it up. And by the time my trial came up, why, I was local hero number one. An orphan child. The whole town wanted to adopt. So no one, least of all of me, was much surprised when the jury filed back into the jury box with their decision. The gentleman of the jury reached a verdict. We have, Your Honor. Defendant. Well, your word, kitten. What do they say? The pen is mightier than the sword? Oh, I'm so happy I could help, Steve. You don't see me crying, honey. You want to dance? Yeah, but... Come on. I want to talk first. Have you got a home you're going to or a job? Oh, look, kid, you've been girl-scot enough today. Let's dance. Please tell me, Steve. I'm worried about you. I'm going to winter in California and summer in Maine. You haven't any place to go. See America first. That's my motto. Steve, I don't want to butt in, but... Well, Harry Singles will give you a job. Yeah, doing what? In the circulation department. Ah, you're kidding. Well, it wouldn't be such a good job to start, than you'd like, Harry. Well, nine hours a day, five days a week. Is that it? Five and a half days. Steve Hannibal, punching a time clock. I suppose I'll get a social security number and everything, huh? Don't you have one? Unemployment, insurance, income tax. That's a lot of legality. Legality? Skip it, kitten. Let me think. You know, I might just take a world at that job. Oh, Steve, I think that's wonderful. It's not so much the job, but you and I have a lot of unfinished business, baby. We can't get it all done in one day. Right now, I want to dance. Come on, baby. That was the old brain working, see? You see, I had countered on drifting. Nothing was safe to join up with Murph. I didn't know where he'd gone, but I figured I'd be able to find him when the heat was off. But when Lori said job, it was kind of a new angle. I could stay right here in town, pull down enough dough to get by, and maybe a little on the side. What was the safest spot I could possibly be in for a long time? I went down to the newspaper office with Lori the next morning and was hired. First time in my life such a thing ever happened to me. Harry Singles, he was a sharp guy for any racket. Working with him, I got so... I didn't mind. Of course, the hours were very regular all day time, and I had to put on a clean shirt now and then. But always, I had that 23 grand to think about. And the kid, Lori, I couldn't have squired a better doll in Chicago than any other place. I was kind of nervous. Let's not go out tonight, Steve. Let's stay here in my place, huh? I'll cook something. I don't know. It doesn't seem right. What doesn't seem right? Seeing a doll with a class and an apron. I can't get used to it. You will eventually. After all, you're used to being a working man now. I don't be too sure, baby. Steve, you know you love it. I don't know. Sometimes I get the itch to move on. Forget the itch, Steve. A rolling stone gathers no moss. Yeah, so they tell me. But I saw some moss once and I still wonder what does a stone want with moss anyway? You see what I mean? Lori kept telling me how much I like being a pillar of society so that sometimes even I began to wonder. And then Harry started shoving raises at me in titles. Inside of no time, I was a district manager. And I sat down and I figured the dough angle and that gave me a shock. Because even if it was legal, I was making more dough week in and week out than I had with Murph and the boys. Well, the Chicago stick-up stayed hot and I didn't hear from Murph so I let it ride and kept working. Long about then, the papers were in a lather again all over reforms and the town was crawling with rackets and Lori was working on the stories. One night, Lori was typing a story in a room and I was in the living room waiting for her to finish. And that's a finish for tonight? What is it, buying hats again? Here on the desk. The local wolves are moving in. Much more exciting. Lay off or we'll measure you for a coffin. You have 24 hours to quit your job. First time I ever got anything like that. You want to read my answer? Your answer? My article for tomorrow morning. I've written all about the note so why do you figure? Well, there's an out-of-town mobster who's moved in on the local rackets and he's making a good thing of it. I found out about him three days ago and I've really tracked him down. Here he goes with the name of Dude Ringler. But I knew that was an alias. I finally find out that he's a former big-time operator from Chicago. He's wanted there for a lot of things including murder. I'm going to print it in the paper and he'll be picked up just about the time you told the cops, huh? Not yet. I thought you could go down with me. And what's the guy's name in Chicago? I don't know all of it. He headed up a gang there. They call him Murph. I got that roller coaster feeling only worse. I still can't figure it. She was only a half-baked doll moving into territory where anyone would like to get clipped. Why should I care? I don't see it. Steve, what's the matter? You gotta lay off, Laurie. You gotta quit. Because of that ridiculous note? Don't ask me why. Just quit. Well, I certainly won't quit. That's just what he wants me to do. Okay, I'll tell you. I know Murph. You know him? And he's trigger happy. He's a rattlesnake and pants. Then that's all the more reason... Listen to me. I don't know why I'm doing this. I never figured... I know my life and I'm going to tell you something. I'm going to tell you before I wise up. What, Steve? You remember when you got my true story when I was up for that murder rap? Of course I remember. Well, that was all a pipe dream, sweetheart. Something for the books. You lied to me? You did kill Red? His name wasn't Red. He was a slimy, evil punk from a mob I ran with. Named Joe Tinelli. Mob? He was killed by another guy who was in the car. He was killed by Murph. I covered for Murph because he was hot. Steve, then you... Listen. They'll want you for those jobs, too. They... Shut up. I'm listening. What? What is it, Steve? I thought I heard someone in the other room and the door closed. You're just imagining it, Steve. Yeah, yeah, I guess I am. This being a squealer takes my skin off. Oh, Steve. But you got the story, baby. Short and sweet. Now, you can do what you want with it. Quit your job and live or turn me into... What a dog. She cried on the front of my shirt. And then she smiled. And she called Harry's singles with me sitting there and told him she quit. She told him she was getting married the next morning to me and, well, I played along. Then I left her. And after telling him to button her lip and keep the door locked, I started to go find Murph to check on the 23 grand and put him why so he lay low. I could see he still needed me to think for him. But there was something wrong. Something very wrong. I felt like I was cracking up. So, well, I let it ride until the morning. I was climbing up the stairs to pick up Gloria 9 on the dot and for some reason I was feeling pretty good. Open up, chick. It's me. Open! Hello, Murph. Still trigger-happy, huh? And you don't have to call me names. You're up kind of. Aren't you, Murph? I was making a little call on your doll. Yeah, I see you was. She wasn't a bad-looking doll, Steve. You didn't have to plug her. She quit her job. Yeah. I didn't know about that. Well, still she knew too much. She wasn't gonna use it, Murph. Maybe. You told her about Joe. You shouldn't have done that, Steve. So it was you I heard in here last night, huh? No, kiddin'. You heard me? Yeah, I heard the tone. And you heard me tell her, huh? Yeah. This work in legal has given you bad habits, Steve. But I'll forget it. Come here. Come over here. Just look what she there wrote. Dude Ringo. Alias Murph. Alias we don't know how many other names. One and a half dozen cities for murder, loss, and he'd kidnap her. But good, Steve. She wasn't gonna use it. No. Well, don't let her worry you. Well, that's about time we picked that 23-grit. Hey. Hey, what's up, Steve? You shouldn't have put your gun down, Murph. What's eatin' ya? You shouldn't have put it down. Because I'm gonna drill ya, Murph. I always wanted a drill ya. And before I wise up, I'm gonna do it. That time, that time the neighbors heard it. I didn't care. I kept pumping lead. When they came in, I... I was standing over Murph holding the gun. Same gun he used to kill the kid. So the cops got me for both of them. Both of them. And the Joe and the payroll job, too. They really thought they hit their jackpot with me. I didn't give them any arguments. There wasn't any use. But see what I mean? I'm mixed up. You see? I've always been a sharp guy. I gotta beat the game. Murph was right when he knocked off the kid. She did tone. Well, she did know too much. It's the way things work out when I sit. Why should I get a case of highs over a doll getting drilled? I can't figure it out. Now I'm trimming my fingernails waiting for Mr. Burley to get a reprieve. I'm mixed up about that, too. Because in the dictionary, it's a word that's got kind of two meanings. And the way I feel they don't mesh, they cancel each other out. To suspend temporarily the execution of sentence upon and relief for cessation of pain or ill. Any time now. Hello, Mr. Gurley. Hello, Steve. That's the good word. My boy. Turn your collar around, Mr. Gurley. We're gonna talk like that. Spill it. It wasn't any use, Steve. No reprieve. I'm sorry. I got until 6 a.m. No reprieve. No reprieve. I wouldn't say that, Mr. Gurley. I draw a definition number two. I get cessation of pain. And so closes reprieve in which Roma Wines have brought you John Garfield, a star of tonight's study in... Suspense. Suspense is produced, edited and directed by William Spear. Before our star returns to the microphone, let me say a word for Roma Wines, the sponsor of suspense. Genuine cordiality, unaffected simplicity. These are the qualities that have made Elsa Maxwell's hospitality famous the world over. In her own words. Friendliness and hospitality begin at home. And there's no better or simpler way than with a glass of distinctive Roma wine. I suggest Roma Vermouth. Chill as a most delightful aperitif. Or next time you serve cocktails, flatter your guests by using this delicious California Roma Vermouth. You'll find that zestful, full-bodied Roma Vermouth brings delicious flavor to your favorite mixed drinks. The goodness of Roma Vermouth comes from using almost 100 different herbs and specially selected Vermouth type wines. So I say whenever the occasion calls for Vermouth, either sweet or dry, be sure to serve delightful Roma Vermouth, made and bottled in the heart of California's famous vineyards. You can depend on Roma Vermouth and all other Roma wines to be always delicious. Always pleasing to the palate of unvarying fine quality. This week is being celebrated as National Restaurant Week. Let us all join in saluting America's restaurateurs, who despite food and personnel shortages are doing such a splendid job. This is John Garfield with a message from your government. Four million crop core workers are needed to help the regular farm labor forces harvest the 1945 crop. We face the most serious farm labor shortage since the beginning of the war. Everyone with or without farm experience can help. Crop core work is war work which will pay you the prevailing farm wages. Get in touch with your county agricultural agent or local government employment office. Thank you. John Garfield appeared through the courtesy of Warner Brothers Studios and will soon be seen as Al Schmidt in their production, Pride of the Marines. Next Thursday, you will hear Mr. Dana Andrews as star of Suspense. Resented by Roma Wines. R-O-M-A. Made in California for enjoyment throughout the world. This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.

ReOrient 2012—Staging the Middle East—Golden Thread—Saturday, Nov 17, 2012
|
This year's Forum features provocative panel discussions on topics such as "The Arab Spring and Its Dramatic Reverberations," "Engaged Performance: Building Dialogue Through Artistic Exchange," "From 'War on Drugs' to 'War on Terror': Parallels in Latino/Chicano and Middle Eastern American Performance," and "Comedic Counter Terrorism."
Chair: Brad Erikson, Theatre Bay Area Panelists: Michael Butler (Center Rep), Carey Perloff (American Conservatory Theater), Sean San Jose (Campo Santo/Intersection), Marissa Wolf (Crowded Fire) Sponsor: Theatre Bay Area
Bay Area theatre companies discuss the distinct challenges and rewards of staging plays about the Middle East. More plays about the Middle East have been produced in the US in recent years than ever before. Theatre Bay Area asks artistic directors of four diverse San Francisco theatre companies with recent productions about or from the Middle East to reflect upon the challenges and rewards of that experience. What was their impetus for the production? How did they manage casting, dramaturgy, and audience outreach? How did they prepare audiences to receive the work? What was the response to the production? What might help spark further reflection, conversation, and action?

And thank you for your time, and if we could give them a welcoming round of applause. Thanks. Well, so this particular panel is looking at why some of our local theaters here, some of them large, some of them mid-sized, some of them small, are wrapping their heads around this kind of work and why they're approaching it and what particular challenges and rewards there might be in presenting and tackling work that has to do with it. And thinking about this, you know, just today, and kind of almost so many days, the front pages of our newspapers are dealing with the Middle East in some way. It's driving our world, the issues that are playing out in the Middle East and the way that those issues resonate in this country. It seems to me that almost the question is not why are theaters tackling plays that are dealing with the Middle East, but how can you not? And yet there are some, you know, I think there's some real challenges and maybe some reticence that some theater producers have in tackling this kind of work and maybe for some real reason. And yet in the panel that we had just heard an hour or two ago, and we're talking about challenges and the kind of risks that people are taking in presenting work that's dealing with issues in the Middle East, when you hear about, well, you know, my parents were taken to jail or, you know, this person had his fingers crushed by the police or, you know, you've been shut down because the censors have come in and stopped to play. I think the whole context of risk is maybe brings up, there's a kind of different, the whole different dimension that we're talking about. And yet, nevertheless, those challenges and those risks are real and probably the rewards are real too. And so we're going to be hearing from the artistic directors of four very different kinds of theaters here in the Bay Area about why they are taking the risks to present this kind of work. And what are the particular challenges around presenting it, approaching the work, preparing your audience, following up with your audience, getting your right artists on board, and how are they planning maybe to continue to do this work in the future. So that's just kind of setting a context for what we're looking at. And one of the other things that we heard from this morning with Dr. Dabashi was, you know, he quoted the San Jose Mercury News and he was, you know, mentioning about the cycle of tragedy. And the way that that sort of, it's a stereotype and it sort of marginalizes the experience of the Middle East and it seems like perhaps for those of us who are not of Middle Eastern descent, the Middle East we understand in kind of frames of enormity. There's an enormity of tragedy which was, you know, represented in that comment from the San Jose Mercury News. There's sort of an enormity of hope and inspiration that I think many of us around the world are seeing in the era of spring. There's sort of an enormity of intellectual and faith foundations as the three great monotheistic religions. Religions hauled by billions of people across the world come from this place. And all of the sort of wonderful acts of compassion and humanity and the terrible acts of war and violence that spring out of all of that, these frameworks of enormity that maybe those of us who are not of Middle Eastern descent look at the Middle East. And that's our framework. And I think that one of the things that we're seeing today and that the works that these four companies have presented is ways that we are able to understand the Middle East, yes, with those lenses, yes, inside of those frames, but inside of those frames are leo-syncratic individual human beings with lives of their own. And it's providing us with a way of understanding the world, understanding people in the world, understanding people in this country in a way that reveals the full humanity and not a stereotype of a hero, not the stereotype of a victim, not the stereotype of a prophet. And I think that I'm really interested in maybe exploring some of that aspect of the conversation today as well. So I think what I would do is we've heard the names, but I think that some of you will know these companies really well, and some of you may not know these companies much at all. And so I'm not going to make any sort of assumptions as to whom you know and whom you don't know. So I'm just going to ask, moving from my left, if these artistic directors could say a little bit more about their theater and a little bit more about their work that they will be referencing in the conversation. Some of it's been passed and some of it's still coming up. Hi, I'm Carrie Curloff, the artistic director of the American Conservatory Theater, which is a producing organization and also a school. And I was just thinking about how this material, mostly what I have learned in my years at ACTS from our students and one of my favorite students is an actor named Omar Mewali, who graduated quite a few years ago now, but it was with Omar that I started the quest of looking for Middle Eastern players. And I'm going to talk about today, from our end, is a play by Wajdi Mawad called Scourge, Assenby, which was written in French, but he's Lebanese and premiered in Montreal and we did last season of this. Good afternoon. You guys awake? Yeah. It's just so big in here. My name is Sean San Jose. I work for a place here in San Francisco called Intersection to the Arts, and very specifically I work with the resident theater company Campo Sanpo, and we create all the work we have for more than 15 years doing that. And I suppose we're going to talk specifically about a piece of work. There's a young writer that we work with by the name of Shadi Faubo-Humped, and I think, yeah, more than what I'm going to say about things, I think the individual storyteller and personal history becomes very important to the way that we approach any topic. Any questions? I'm Marissa Lowell. I'm the artistic director of Coyote Fire Theater, and we're a movie theater. We do new work, and we've been around for 15 years, and we really work with playwrights, commissioning, developing, and producing the work. And in particular, our first Middle Eastern thing, it was just down this summer, by Anastasian Canary, who is Swedish-Chinese, and that's called immigration, and directed by the one woman every night. Hi, I'm Michael Butler. I'm the artistic director of Center Rap in Almond Creek, or technically it's in the Bay Area, but I think it is on the ninth ring of Sabbath. It's so far out there. Center Rap is the resident company of the Leicester Center for the Arts, and interestingly, we are a city program, so I'm rarely here representing parts of rap, just technically what I am. We have no tradition of doing even new plays, let alone Middle Eastern plays, so we are producing and directing Yusef El-Gindy's, the one of the playwrights working to see this afternoon, Pilgrim's Musa and Sherry in the New World, which is just one of the Steinberg Award. We're doing that as part of our off-center series in the spring, and so this is, I'm just on the beginning of my adventure into this world, and I'm fairly happy to be here, but it's going to be a very great learning experience really this whole weekend. So thank you for that. I think what I'd like to do is, you know, rather than like interview Carrie and then interview Sean and then just moving down the line, I'd like to kind of throw out a few questions and then ask, you know, make sure that each one of them is responding with kind of a hopefully creative conversation that's also occurring here at this table, and then we will move on to the next question and the next question and we'll wrap up that portion of it around 205 to kind of make sure that we've got plenty of time for Q&A to hear from your experiences and thoughts around this in a good 20 to 25 minutes of that towards the end of this session, so just to kind of lay that out. The first question that we had in front of us as we were looking at it is like, you know, why do this kind of work? And, you know, maybe it's because it's on the front page of the newspaper, but maybe there's something else. So maybe Carrie, you were mentioning that it came from someone that you promised you to add in the MFA program. Maybe, I don't know, maybe talk a little bit more about... Well, the question you asked is really the better question, which is why not? You know, we spend our lives, we're just talking about this, you know, having discussions about diversity in the American theater, which usually means the same three plays and the same three cultures, and you know, this represents an enormous part of the world. It's amazing to me that it's taken us this long, but theater always goes out of individual relationships. You want to work with specific artists. They lead you to other artists. People tell their own stories. I started my career as an archeologist working on ancient Middle Eastern stuff. So, you know, I studied sewer and Babylon and Assyria, and I love that part of the world. I came back to it through lots of different people, but starting with Omar, I got to... I worked in Canada a lot and heard about this player who had come from Lebanon when he was 18. And so I went to Montreal and started looking for these plays. He's written this tetralogy, so there are four of them, and they get weirder and weirder. They're really surreal, dangerous plays. But Scorch just knocked me out. I mean, it's a Greek tragedy by every Middle East about twins searching for their identity, and it was made into quite an amazing film, actually, last year. And once I met him at Washi, who's a very magical, particular kind of writer, I just wanted to sort of keep going down that path, and I'm sure one of the things we'll talk about, it depends on, you know, if we're talking about plays in English or not, translation is a big issue, a really interesting question, and how you find translators for work from all over that part of the world is particular. But this one really captured my imagination, and I brought it back to SOT, and we have a trustee who's Lebanese, Lionel Tarif, and this meant a great deal to her. We started to just read more on the play and more and more people. It's a big community here. As you start to put the feelers out, come into the mix and say, that's part of my story, and you should make sure you know this and you should talk to that person, and then you start casting, and there's a huge pool in this country now of Norwegian actors. So I was really committed to that, to making sure that Around the Table was a kind of rich world. So there was an Egyptian actor, and an Iranian actor, and a Syrian actor, and a Lebanese actor, and a Greek guy. Well, speaking of translation, Marisa, that makes me think of the invasion, which was originally written in Swedish. Right, right. Tell us a little bit about that, the process of journeys. Yeah, so, you know, actually, this is funny, because I actually heard about this work from reading an article, and we have times about it. You know, the title was something about like a openly political playwright, and I was like, yes, who is this? And he'd only been done in the US once, in New York. And so we were really excited to be able to do this work here, and he was incredibly... I mean, he's, I think, we're still living in England, or... Right, okay. So he was very, very open with us about, yes, making your own, and doing what you want, and the translation, so he speaks fluent English, but he chose to have it translated by an American writer. And he talked about that as being important to him, so that it kind of carried that incredibly relevant, like, of the moment piece that really uses the kind of, like, vernacular and slang of the characters in the world. And he felt like, he said that he felt it would be a bolder translation and so I think that he has a very close relationship with this writer, who also translated one of his novels. And it was interesting, because in our audience we had him, I was so startled that we had not only a great representation of folks from the Middle East come out, but also folks from Sweden who were Swedish speakers and had been doing his work, and were really excited to see it staged. Absolutely. So, Sean, what brought you, I mean, I know that a lot of what you do is based upon the relationships that you develop in the audience. Is that true? I mean, I think it's interesting and thank you for having this particular panel of folks. I think in creating work, especially new work, you know, for us it's always to reflect the world that we live in. And so there's kind of a non-specificity to that. And I think there's obviously this whole, these past few weeks have been filled with people clearly working from the inside. If we look about this subject matter we're clearly working on the outside of it, in terms of that. I mean, I think it's just part of the each of us, it's the United States, right? So each of us has to lead our place into the storytelling map or narrative that this country allowed at a certain point. And so just like any other movement, I think the world has to wake up and it's just going to have to tell more and more stories that way. So we've certainly never went into thinking what we tell Middle Eastern society. We're not capable of that. I think also our expertise, is not in looking at things politically per se or historically in that sense. So it has to become very personal and personal then hopefully to be political in that sense. And so it's interesting I guess just to sit up here and try and invert the equation how we approach it. At the heart of any of the storytelling Brad was saying is the human experience of it that's what we want to start with and then I think I'm a believer in the more specific you make the storytelling oddly enough to the more universal it becomes. And I think in our case working with this young man Sharif Al-Wahamde he worked with us for a long time and he saw how other writers told stories about their own past their own histories, their own memories their own struggles and it's also hard for us to be representative of international things. Us meaning our group Kamposaka which is very squarely grounded in San Francisco frankly and grounded in being the strange citizens of this United States which ends up having a lot of swimming through a sea of several different migrations I think in seeing these sort of paths and seeds of other people's works whether it's Chicanos or Black folks or Japanese whatever it is how you got to the place that you got to and I think he saw his own story and his own past and that he's Palestinian so I think that also has there's something heightened in that for him in terms of of homeland, history, identity, all that in a weird way I sound so general about it but I think that moment that you sit in a theater especially if you grow up in the United States and for many of us you don't see yourself reflected often enough I think the moment that you see yourself reflected in any kind of refraction where you go like listen to that August Wilson story about this guy telling a very particular story in the 1940s but it's about his grandmother I relate to my grandmother in that same way if this is not too much of a stretch of I mean that's kind of the moment that I had that makes me interested in doing theater and I think for us Sharif had that story and so he came into it in many different ways trying to tell stories and ultimately the strongest story he had was the tell a story about him and his father and his mother and a lot of things and so I think we you do that and then you put it in the hands of the people that know that story that's interesting really not from Omar Metswale he's also part of our company as well as Cherries and he directed that I think there's something there's something this cool about the growing legion of stories that this country is filled with and the fact that these two younger men were able to lead us a company still very young ourselves but into a new era of storytelling and that's why I'm most excited to be on the panel is actually the part where we get to look at the real life and what else and what other stories are there and what other stories are there when we first started the thing we did a play by the guy who probably also leased a few words categories I'm a Chicano writer and so I think it's easy to go like other Chicano plays I think we very purposefully set out to tell stories that reflect the world we live in you know if you live in the Bay Area it's a lot of stories so we're never going to get to one hundredth of them but the ones that speak the truest and the loudest are the ones who want to be part of telling and Cherries who knows that story so I think it's less that his play it's more about his voice and the voice that he's in the inspiration of the people it's just it's a weird it's a weird bottom of the mountain thing that we're all in because we're trying to tell many many stories from many many people in the way that the United States works is the most of the land that's already plotted out to people so it takes these ways for people to go oh now there's lesbian stories oh no black folks in stories stories oh no Latin people in stories stories oh no Asian American stories so I feel sort of oddly fake up here so now we tell Middle East and so I don't I could never report that we do that I think we work with people that live in this world pretty honestly if you broke it down yeah Cherries Carles Denier born tomorrow Egyptian so in that way yeah but he ended up he wrote this play his first play that got produced called Habibi so beautiful and so honest that I think it could be in any in any play festival or book about you know immigrant experiences of Middle Eastern experiences as far as I could tell there's me in that one so Michael I am interested in asking you this question because you're going out on this one for the first time and as you were saying it's not really something that you're it's usual for a center rep to be doing and so maybe obviously about how you come this play and why and why now and so it's here there it is yeah you know in some ways the risk for us is not so much doing a Middle Eastern play but doing a new play and maybe that's a good thing in a way but that's in some ways where the bigger focus is on you know we've launched this it's part of this off-center second stage program that we inaugurated three years ago because I was really feeling the need to have an opportunity for myself frankly and for our audiences to you know entertain come in contact with me work work doesn't have to be as frankly sell as many tickets because I have to upstate so you know it's a little to do that in 2009 but I thought it was a really good opportunity at the same time and did it without any budget staff and sort of has to pay for itself so it's a really interesting it's still kind of a commercial venture in a weird way but definitely the focus is to do new work the play came to me because I don't have a literary department actually so it's always like a weird sort of personal recommendation based kind of way that it happens David Bichard an actor in Seattle that I work with many times in our play right had encountered this but I think with that festival music or the icicle music yes you know I talk we talk to people all the time that's good, that's a good idea and he recommended it he just loved the play and he really spoke to me about it as a rather than a Middle Eastern play and I responded to it as a great play but frankly also feeling that having an opportunity to have a conversation about this issue felt extremely important and that anything that could let people even if they don't have a conversation I just think about developing empathy and understanding for this situation was really important and I like the play so much because it's basically a romantic comedy that uses that genre and that powerful attractive story to explore a kind of culture clash between the expectations between the method and Middle Eastern values so it was appealing to me on a lot of levels and that's basically what led to what's so interesting is that truly I was asking this question for the first time we did not like all meet on the phone and rehearse what we were going to say before we got here today so all of these questions are real they're not rhetorical and so I'm really hearing them which is really interesting and maybe really gratifying that I'm not hearing from anyone of these four artistic directors it was like gosh we really felt like we needed to do something Middle Eastern so let's go find something I'm really hearing that it's about these stories, these playwrights this we want to reflect the world and this is obviously a huge part of the world so why wouldn't we do it as Kerry was saying I think that's really interesting and yet or maybe and along with that as you found yourself going down this path and given the sort of complex histories of the Middle East and the passions and the volatility and frankly some of the sort of history that's been out there with I just so remembered and I did get a chance to see it in New York my name is Rachel Corey and I think we all saw what happened with that company in New York and the decision to pull the play for a while and then they got beat up for that and then they did it and just like there are unseen perhaps landmines and I wondered if you found any landmines along the way or were afraid of any or weren't afraid of just went full steam ahead I don't know if there's something different about this kind of war or not I think there will be for me any new play is going to have this set of challenges that will win them down with the possibilities you know title is so important and I really like the title but it's long I'm sure you've heard this before once you've read the play I think you really love it but you know so I think it will the goodwill and the natural ambassadorship of this play will, that takes a little longer but I really believe it's going to have potentially a profound effect on the people that see it and will spread and will do it really hard to change how people not really believe or think but affect some sense of their regard of things you know it's interesting we don't have any landmines but it's kind of like what Sean said it's such an important question to always be asking ourselves is the question of authenticity of voice and what that means as a white Jewish artistic director to be very thoughtful around and be aware of what can be easily cultural appropriation or what has been in our history in this country cultural appropriation as we do work by all sorts of folks who are not our only subject position so I feel very grateful for Torange and Golden Threads support and everyone because we just, I think that in our leading up to in our pre-production of the show we have a lot of conversations and a lot of we have to be really honest about casting about choices around having a resident artist who has played a Middle Eastern character before at a number of different times but who himself is not what that meant and just being open and not kind of coming to the table like listen, I know everything so I'm going to do this play and that feels very important but for all sorts of work that we do and not just shut the doors and say well I can't do anything outside my own subject position because that's what we do let's be thoughtful and ask a lot of questions and engage in ways that feel scary and important I think landlines don't usually come around political issues or manufactured cultural issues so I think no in that sense and I think it also speaks to it's easy for me to say because I believe it because what we do we're interested in telling stories that reflect our world which is safe in a certain way but that can only exist if there are then groups like Globe and Fred in order for us as a whole ecology of us trying to tell stories we actually need both of the muscles working at the same time so therefore it becomes easier for me to say yes, of course that's another story the sea of stories that needs to be told and at the same time it's just like our identity the same time that I say I'm a person of color and at certain times I have to be like shut the fuck up can't be always talking about I'm a person of color I just have to be a person at a certain time I think for the whole storytelling that has to happen for us as whatever community, society, the world and so for us we kind of have the easier task of it we're telling a story that is an honest, heartfelt, honest imaginative, crazy story but like landlines it's very lightweight I think I think it's harder if you're taking on something political and it's obvious in this you know the culture that we live in that Middle Eastern things have a sort of this layer over it right now so I think it's harder for people and it's harder in a smaller degree for people that are attacking that a little more head on so for us you know I'm laughing looking at Joan Holman thinking that landmines my first year here doing the pulp in the woods and getting practically arrested by the Catholic Church so the Middle East was so easy where I'm never in my life and picketed and attacked by that label that was a landmine because it was sort of deliberately provocative I mean you know it's so deeply depends on the play a lot of these are family plays family of families is hugely particular whether it's a Greek family, a Jewish family, a Turkish family and a Iranian family and the circumstances I'm thinking about Mona Mansour's work it's both very particular both universal because it wrestles intercultural and intergenerational issues that we all wrestle with you know good writing is sort of good writing you know the landmines are just as Marissa says if we had done Scorched and just passed like our company, yeah that would have been terrible and but you know I always think the fun of making theater is every play you do whether it's as a writer or director or producer it's like a journey into another world so the best thing you can do is say to people who know that role you take me, guide me what do I pack, what do I eat how does the language work who do you want to go with you so every journey is like that it's just like Kerry said the one day you wake up and you go uh oh I better cast some Middle Eastern actors in the United States and you take yourself to that task and go oh it turns out there's two million of them okay great like I shouldn't trip about that that's going to happen I think for all of us that live in boxes or good prison boxes the more and more we bust out and say oh there's actually a million stories about a million people and a million people can tell their stories so let's do the really good ones and the ones that really need to be certified people and that is a process that hopefully we go through each time we do it whether it's with Charity or if it's with the condom or music or whoever you're working with we'll work with new writers or writers that write new pieces so Michael it's a ramping it's a ramping of your audiences for this production whether it's different or new things if you are planning to do or worrying about or hoping for we're actually looking forward to not doing that and letting the audience sort of encounter the play really freshen up on its terms but it is gentle the play is gentle in that way I'm like Charity said good writing is good writing and you need to be aware that you're in the hands of a good writer it's inventive and and then character relationships great characters a very engaging relationship that begins in the novel that draws anybody in and then all the other stuff is sort of in support of that or that's driving that's driving it so I think it's kind of great in a way to not come to this particular play to see a story about maybe culture crash it's a story like the doctor said in the keynote that the bilingualism that is roomfully happily deliberate but some really joyous embracing of this new adventure it's a story of this Egyptian immigrant trying to encounter America and make it here okay that's deep enough that's everybody's story I think what's so interesting that I'm hearing from the panel is that there wasn't a particular forevoting about approaching this work necessarily and there wasn't really an experience of landmines as people were staying along the way in a kind of particular way of taking the audience by the hand and having to sort of like usher them through or shepherd them through in a different way which is maybe not what people assume in practitioners here and elsewhere around the country which is also really encouraging with that in mind this might be a good time to kind of open it up and extend the conversation out to you all for both questions and comments and maybe sharing of your own experiences with this producing work that deals with issues in the Middle East or coming from we need microphones go to thank you so much I am Fabia, I'm from Syria I'd like to first thank you for all the effort you are to produce the theater play I have questions that if you follow the image or the plays that were before the Arab Spring and after the Arab Spring from what we have really, article, the news and most of the production or anything written about the Arab you find something have changed the perspective have changed I have noticed that the appreciation and respect for Arab people or the Middle Eastern people have changed so do you think that has affect you the vision or even your audience how that affect your job that you start to pick different subject and do you think as I don't know if I'm right that I have seen that even the theme itself in the play I find a lot of things speaking about for example before the repression of women how much their religion affect women how they see us in general and suddenly I have found a lot of politics came up and start to see another thing happen that so do you think that affect you and your audience how they receive this I think what you speak to is that now like a sort of new generation like a youthfulness hunger and a kind of on the world stage that I think I feel at some level that that we need to be kind of pushing actually a demand for more Middle Eastern work on stages and you know again and on to Taranj for her work and her vision that is pervasive here but for me it's I don't know it kind of brings up a sense of like this should be a directive for all of us actually that it yes yes yes yes it's the stories that are relevant but it's also it's pressing for us particularly to Eric's brain I mean I think it's a great question because it's a great question for us in the world right and I think as practitioners creators of theater pieces for like witnesses in form of witness and journalists of sort so with us it's like that in terms of its delay like an event will happen it takes like three years for it to land into our consciousness about how it affects our culture and then we can start responding creatively to further the dialogue in some way so I think to initially answer your question for sure for sure yeah I think every one of us in the world feels a little bit more like that since all of the events have happened and then how will that affect the work I don't know yet too because in the United States we're so like you know we look down at our own things so much it's going to be hard to sort of go like well look back up child and there's the rest of the world and how is that going to affect you all and so I don't know how that's going to affect the rest of the the way we tell stories I would imagine too it'll happen quicker you know you know because what you say is exactly I mean it's in the zeitgeist and sometimes we don't even know what's in the zeitgeist we hear it we read it we don't even really consciously know this is something we're thinking about and then you read something and you think that's what it is and you know for me one of the most puzzling things about studying the Middle East is to try to understand tribalism what is that I get this Alawite Sunni Shiite situation in Syria which you it's in your DNA and all we can do is parse it in the New York Times and try to understand what is that because we ostensibly live in a culture but it's a culture of law so what washti was trying to do and scorched I suddenly realized was this question about vendetta so how does vendetta work right why is vendetta such an ancient thing and why does it follow tribal lines and why where does the law intersect with it which is of course what Greek tragedy is about I'm just going to say that when electros deal with this yeah so I love this stuff because that's what I was weaned on but what I realized in telling the washti he also loves Greek tragedy because the question that the Greeks tried to ask and you know we as Americans are so naive we think if you just let people have free elections democracy is going to happen we somehow don't get it look at our own democracy why don't we get a messy difficult process but we don't seem to get it and so you know this question of whether vendetta and tribalism can actually be interrupted by something that has a different kind of representation is huge and the question of women of course is even major because you know from much in the Middle East women have so much less access to voice and education you know I think those things that's what drew me if you want to look at the sort of bigger political things that Irish people were writing about I would love to work more on that because it's so hard to wrap our heads around I mean I think Karen brings up a great point too though obviously the the breaking down of laws and hope of that is beautiful to all of us then it butts up against sort of our theories around law and structure and anything messy obviously it becomes much more difficult like there should be a billion stories right now kind of running constantly about Gaza Strip and Mexico right now isn't that where the most contention and you know actual real life drama has been going on for years and years and years and we can barely read it in the newspaper so in order for it to get out of our stages it's harder but I agree too again with Karen that it's in the air so it's going to sooner or later it's going to pull back down and it's going to come into someone's story political stuff is hard but I'm talking to an audience of people that know that much better than I so it becomes very that's what the landline says and you know it becomes an interesting thing hope hope hope becomes a beautiful thing may I ask a question so I just want to shift the conversation a little bit of focus on you've talked about you know Middle East as an international concept and work in translation but Habibi is an American story and Pilgrims is an American story I'm interested in your perspective on why more Middle Eastern American players are not being introduced and how can we help to make that happen sorry so baby there's a baby over there what do you want me to do I think that's the I will put myself to that task too there's not enough space I think part of it too is like again like working two muscles at the same time like we can over here look at the big scope what are the stories, what is the world telling us to do and then there needs to be enough rattling in the cage can you tell a funny story can you tell our story can you tell our story we're here can you tell our story okay you're not going to tell our story we're going to tell our story and then we get like 50 of those stories you go like she's really good you can tell her stories next if she'll tell her stories so part of it I mean we have to work in this kind of unconscious concert together you go like will you continue to write and tell your stories and then we'll tell those stories together I mean I don't think well certainly none of us up here are situated in a place that says let's focus on this as the type of story telling I mean it's the thing with any group, any minority right we have to speak loud enough until you listen to us and you're not going to listen to us then we're going to speak louder or we're going to tell it to each other and we're going to tell it to each other long enough that you're going to come in you're going to become interested after a while but I would just hope more I mean it's not like it's not happening I mean we take a few from you like we are in every year you know many many voices every every year so I think about you know what you need to you know do this and then you know the the component of I mean it sounds so corny maybe it's naive but the love and understanding that the play has and it's calling for you know maybe that's subversive to like make us think when we count on this play we watch it oh this is just a play about young lovers trying to make it and then oh no it's actually got all this other stuff but I'm hooked in on this very human story maybe that's I don't know the answer to the question why there isn't more I'm not qualified to that but we're just thinking about my own experience of why I chose this play I mean let's be honest now most of the American theater does the same three plays you get Middle Eastern plays to talk about plays like women or anything you know I didn't get an amazing job I mean I think it's about getting names out there over and over again you're with the array of possibilities you know I think people don't read plays anymore in this game you know I mean you've sung some an artistic different play and you're lucky if anybody ever reads anything I don't know why so it has to do with keeping that pot boiling as you have as artists as actors who want to do those plays are ambassadors and say you want to work with me here's what I want to do I mean very often that's how a play gets done all kinds of different cultural plays read this you know and after 3,000 plays sitting under desk you read that one because that person you know and so partly just you know finding ways to make sure that the work you do gets out there gets published gets you know gets seen you've laid a huge amount of traction just here and it's happened around the country in a relatively short amount of time you know it is a really ridiculous thing that you know it took 50 years for American plays to get released and they all have their little fashions a little fashion of Asian American and now that sort of disappears you know partly more and more they will just be American stories and there are most of the American stories and performers to tell them but it's partly I think in this country just familiarity do you know what I mean it's like realizing your neighbor it's one gay marriage is going to happen no matter what anybody pretends your neighbor is gay and they're going to like it you know it's familiarity then you want them to get married then they're not the other anymore you know the Middle East has been made the other in western culture for so many thousands of years that that is a really that's the big interesting challenge about the Middle East is and I don't even like it that we call it the Middle East they're totally different cultures I hate that you go to Turkey it's one university you go to Syria it's a different you go to Lebanon it's totally different history you go to Iraq so I'm not even sure that's so helpful I want to say too, I mean what was interesting with Invasion was you know it was Americanized and that the transfer had originally or, no not San Rachel had written it to me in New York because that's where it was done first but everyone was like let's make this about the Bay Area and so we got permission from the playwright to just change a few words here and there to make it relevant to us now in terms of like locations and I loved that I loved that choice because it felt like we can't even push it off to the world at least exactly the world on the West Coast so it was so, so timely us now here in San Francisco and that does seem extremely important, both things seem important but to cultivate a sense of our own engagement and culpability now here Everett? Before I ask the question I'd like to um I did the I was the art person when Scorch was selected so I was sort of excited outside of the question I had is do you feel like an artistic director? It feels like on the artistic side there's a hunger and interest and sort of great support of a lot of old writers you know we, CRC, certain writers come up interested in when we set it to your teams, I'm going to do this Middle Eastern play what was the reaction for the marketing people what was the reaction from the fundraising people and how were sales I mean and I don't, that's a real question because I actually feel like until Middle Eastern plays start selling well, you know then we won't make that next step because we we want to make it so that it's not as big as this in a way and I know a lot of artists don't think that way but you counter it when you bring the play out and your marketing people go ooh, you know or not I'm just really curious about how that could actually happen yeah, thank you I'll be really honest with you it wasn't it wasn't, didn't go that well really? well, yeah it's just awful how sort of reductive it gets down to you know the names of things it's just hard and there wasn't any real resistance it's just wow, that's going to be difficult, the fame of the the play and the name of the play right, I'm sorry but this is the truth this is the guy, there's we're used to thinking terms of ticket sale okay yeah that just strengthened my resolve though obviously we need to do this so it's terrible it's good to be honest with you if we're not honest with you anybody else can I follow up on that one just a comment person I kind of want to get back to the landmines and ritual quarry question because I it's hard for me to believe that that guerrilla is not in the room but I want to tell you about 20-25 years ago before 9-11 Middle East only had one meaning in this country and that was Israel and Palestine and the conflict there and it wasn't just landmines around you it was bombers aimed at your head if you took off that subject that's what it was I was part of a group that did that in the late 80s with enormous rewards every Jew and Arab in the big areas of the play about Israel and Palestine because they were full of so much tension about it they really flocked but it's enormous and none of you has mentioned a show that goes there or that goes to the U.S. role in Iraq and I'm pressing the question of whether there are not boundaries there are not things that would come at you if you touched this region in a more dangerous way I think you're absolutely correct and I think that's probably it's not consciously why we get what Terry said that it's easier to come to a place to commune if you're talking about a personal story that's about family absolutely for sure I mean I think there's that on the one hand and then on the other hand I think how many people outside of you are armed and skilled to write those kinds of pieces I don't know I don't know that answer because I don't know those that's not a soft folly that's more just what I'm versing you guys out here may know more people that are ready it's hard enough to get a story in the newspaper so I don't know how you get people to produce those play I hear you and I don't know and I think that has its trickle down then who are the people that are skilled and crafted enough to write a skilled and crafted piece in response to that that furthers the dialogue or in some ways actually starts the dialogue I think it's a great question a question I have no answer I'm trying to think I mean we're about to do this play by George Walker that's really scabrous about an American Sniper who comes back from Iraq and I have no idea what the response is going to be I mean it's not news that none of these veterans can get jobs in this country when they come back and snipers are the worst in terms of employability because they have what they call the eye and that gift which has allowed them to rise in the military and kill at long distance with the incredible precision means they are pariahs when they come back to states and I wanted to do this play because such a troublemaker and such a fantastic writer sort of in the Joan Holden vein I think he's a writer who's probably been very much a cook by you I don't know what I have no idea how that will land and you know in the Bay Area we pretend that we're so we're not the ones sending people to Iraq so we can be very liberal about it it's not ours seriously you know we have this project called computer of war and we've had two NFA students who are in Iraq right now and when they came back and did this project it was absolutely amazing because it was all for the point of view of war is that it's for veterans and so you do a big collaboration where you get people into the audience who are veterans and you know I mean that's a whole other question of who we license our wars out to in this country and the rest of us let it go by you know let alone in Israeli point of view there's a wonderful there are a bunch of Israeli writers writing about like you know Mati Lerner's play the death of Yitzhak which we have Rabin which we worked on which the you know Jews in this town hated it's very very critical of the Israelis he's an amazing writer he has enough trouble getting his plays done in Israel now you know I mean part of the question is we are incredibly culturally myopic in this country you know about all kinds of other cultures it's just the Middle East you know I suppose the Middle East we should be less myopic because we're so involved but I mean we just did a Finnish play at ACT and everybody was like what a lot from where and it's Finland you know where was that so difficult it was incredibly peculiar so you know under my thin front I would say I mean Scorched, you were there when we read I mean our team really enjoyed the play so they really wanted to do it they're much more nervous about other things I like that's another question I wonder given your respective experiences about program what do you think has happened not so far as the question of stage but stage in theater in terms of the location of theater namely there is a place called Zizong and people come here they're invited on a Sunday or Friday to come here and watch their theater or given a contemporary political event such as Tahir Square Tahir Square was not just a revolutionary space it was a theatrical space people were just going there to perform poetry, play, drama, etc we had something of that as a party in New York that again was an occupying space you had an audience or really the play went to the audience or the audience coming I suppose something like that must have happened in Oakland I'm not going to hear that in our part of the world we have a tradition that theater went where people were in the Bazaar people were doing the grocery shopping so you had performance on Friday, Thursday evening people went to the cemetery for loved ones to stage Tahir right there on the cemetery I wonder if something also here we have situational theater any number of a a synoptym of sort of changing the idea of theater where is the theater to perform I just wondered that in this particular moment in this theater we are whether this idea of theater here is the play that is happening you will go by the ticket and you come I mean last night I saw some fantastic plays but they were like 12 and a half people sitting in the audience what if that means to be perceptual completely with you absolutely I think we're in the midst of weighing experimenting trying that very idea I think absolutely and it's not so far from why we would ask a question like where are the Middle Eastern writers I think it's in that same arena meaning if the people are there don't we need to bring the story to the people bring the story back to us and yet absolutely we talk about classes racist issues you know theater perpetuates it as much as any place where we have this hidden set of rules and agendas and obviously economics play into it so only a certain number of us are going to go to that thing or once you're in that thing then only you go and then we do that silly thing where we only crave for each other I'm absolutely with you I think we're trying to do that but right now we're going to do our own next year two things in theater spaces and the rest all along spaces from our space on mission and up 6th street and up market and gallery hotel lobby cafe street corner market store I think that's right I think there has to be right and in the way that you're saying in a basic historical outchemical way there's obviously something there that's what we're trying to create in this weird way in here but it's the same idea but then in the moment that we are in time absolutely also I think just the fact that people don't want to sit in places like this obviously speaks to it so that's such a beautiful thing that you just said that is that is both very cultural specific and very much of now you know it isn't an American tradition because we're founded as a pure country where people didn't want play houses anyway and you had to hide out to do theater because theater people were prostitutes and renegades so we don't really have a tradition of public quite that way I mean that is such a beautiful way to put it when you just said that you know on this Thursday night everybody's at market and that's what they do I mean I'd love to see that tradition created and that would be a very particular new way of saying this is what it means to be American you know that it isn't just a commodity that people go by but actually it is something that a community could do in public together I don't think that's particularly a tradition in this country no I think about them the mine crew has certainly been doing years ago but that's a different thing because that's saying we as this company are going to go into this park what you just said is so amazing which is there are times in the week where an audience is going to be in this place at this cemetery or now this audience of everybody on Thursday night is going to be in this market so let's figure that and let's go there that's kind of I have to think about that that's fabulous I guess my question is about the line of the audience are you exploring and dressing usually the audience is small it was so late we got great audience responses and it's very encouraging for us we had we were really we have 50,000 houses so it's a different beast however we had a great run and we were ready to sell out and I think that I feel that there was a place at the table for a lot of different audiences particularly young audiences and who felt invested and felt that they as Sean has kind of alluded to saw themselves on stage and the Swedish folks and that scenario you described actually doesn't apply to us the thing of the review comes out and then you're packed we were actually the newspapers could die tomorrow and I don't think I'd see any difference but actually word of mouth old fashioned real word of mouth is still the most powerful tool and I depend on it enormously and it actually works I love it I actually feel like there's a real conversation going on within the community and between them and us it's pretty great I was really happy during the Scorch to see who did come but I was also unhappy who didn't come in the sense that you know it did really well but because of Lila on our board and other Lebanese friends of mine and Iraqi friends of mine you know I tried to figure out groups and ways and dialogue and there are people who knew about it but you know theater is such a marginal marginal thing in most people's lives that by the time four weeks have gone by and it's done people in their communities and their schools just hearing about it if it's not something you're already looking for so and forget them they're not really the chronicle I'm saying today but it was played there and I'm thinking about more too I'll play a period so it is a really different thing to think about different kinds of audiences and weird you go how do you build those bridges we tried to do lots and lots of post play things early on with lots of different kinds of people and then encourage them to go out and find people to come back but as with anything you have to do a lot of it you have to do it one time I know this is now watching Electrum because I do a lot of Greeks and the first time we did Greeks I got these letters from the audience before they even saw it saying we hate Greek tracking and when did you see it are they people in slips or something walking around I don't know what they thought now we've done a lot of it and now they're like they know it's fierce and argumentative and litigious and loud and complicated and big women doing dangerous things that's the problem it's volume you have to do enough you have to reach out more than once you know I can't be for us having one show it's like great let's keep going because it's not I remember eight years ago when we did this one show hope you guys will come back we have just one more question hello I'm Rebecca hi first of all I just want to follow up on what Carrie just said about volume more is more in this situation and I want to thank everybody on the panel because what you revealed is both your ease and your comfort and your thoughtfulness but also some of the questions that do contextualize presenting this work both here in a beautiful liberal like San Francisco and nationally where some of the issues are more complicated and the nation is struggling like the NEA has a program to bring a Pakistani company into a rural community in Nebraska and the veterans issues and the Israeli-Palestinian issues and the funding issues the fact that there's less money given to any other international exchange in the entire U.S. foundation and government budgets isn't that so strange so there are issues of funding there are issues of marketing there are issues of translation there are issues of building some kind of a community of allies and many many many many thousand million kudos to Golden Thread Productions and one of maybe three theater companies or is it five I don't know but I mean it's a very small handful of companies around the country who are developing we're developing the artists developing the works discovering the connections just this morning new people that we're meeting so theater companies yes we have a tiny role to play in that but I just wanted to say a big thank you to everybody because more and more and more are going to happen and if there's some kind of you know what that boardings is big on collectivism and staying in connection to develop more and more and more so that there's national advocacy for funding for raising these questions because you guys have now had this positive experience and many companies around the country would not feel so comfortable and so confident you're now people who can share those stories as well as everybody there so I just wanted to say thank you last closing comments come see the play I just said okay I'm throwing down my conlet because I love Roberta so much you know and I didn't go I was a bad girl and didn't go last week to the TCG fall form on diversity because I never want to have that conversation again because I thought supposedly said forget these general conversations in TCG you're not allowed to go to the conference unless you let's say the fall form was just on Middle Eastern Drive and you couldn't go until you've read these ten plays everyone can read some plays on the play but you have to have read the plays and then you're going to go and talk about those specific plays no general conversation about wouldn't it be nice if there was inclusion but something really specific and then we do a whole one with Roberta on Ugandan work and we really wrestle with those incredible artists who we've been collaborating then we do fiddling and swing but I don't know any other way around it I think it's a huge problem that you only get to know other cultures by either going here reading the material meeting somebody who works on the material and committing to doing it yourself I don't know any other way to do it it's trench work that's how it is that's how anything happens it's one on one but you have to make the commitment and we spend we've been told hours at all of the side if we didn't do this it's like we weren't allowed we need to permit ourselves for the next five years to do conferences where we had general no conferences are marketing ever again and we don't have to talk about social media and we don't have to talk about inclusion we actually have to learn something how about we make a commitment to that well thank you thank you for having me we're very happy to work on the panel one last round of applause we have a very brief 10 minute break I invite you to stretch your legs and enjoy some more coffee but please be back in 10 minutes which is when we will be presenting the Middle East America New Plays Initiative Award followed by a use of LED staged reading and a little later tonight a a a a a a a a a a a a a

Hi and welcome to this lecture on data structures and algorithms. In this session, we will discuss heap sort. What is the motivation for heap sort? Well, so far we have seen that the insertion sort algorithm and the selection sort algorithm both give you order n square performance. Question is could we do better and what is better? That is exactly what we want to understand by looking at a possible lower bound for sorting especially based on comparison. Insertion and selection sort both invoked comparison of elements and in fact we discussed the analysis of insertion sort based on number of inversions which correspond to number of swaps and all that is basically comparison. So, the key observation will be as follows, we will try and view each of these algorithms that we have discussed so far or any other algorithm that we might come up with in the future based on comparison as a run of an algorithm on a large binary decision tree. So, here is what we are saying, we are saying that we have some large binary decision tree, this is all for a given array and each of these algorithms or each of the runs of these algorithms would correspond to a path in this decision tree. So, this might be the path of insertion sort whereas for selection sort you might have a different path. So, let us try and understand what this tree is. Which node in this tree is basically a comparison between pair of objects, is x greater than y or y greater than x so we will use the index i for a permutation and i1 will be an element of the i permutation x i1 less than x i2 would be a kind of comparison we would make. The result of each comparison is a yes or no and that corresponds to the branching. So, the sorting algorithm is basically a series of comparisons to decide which permutation of the sequence s is a sorted permutation. So, what sits at the leaves of at each leaf of the permutation tree what you have is the permutation. The number of permutations is n factorial therefore we have n factorial leaves, the number of leaves is n factorial because the number of permutations happens to be n factorial. Now, what is the minimum height of such a tree well we know that since this tree is binary actually it is balanced it is a complete tree because every pair of elements and they are compared you will have two outcomes and there will be no comparison that leads to a dead child so you will have a complete balanced tree and the minimum height of such a tree is log n factorial and in case you have not seen what log n factorial is you could expand so what is log n factorial so this can be viewed as summation over i equals 1 to n of log of i and this we know is less than equal to summation over i of log of n because log of i is less than equal to n as long as i is less than equal to n and this is nothing but n log n so this gives us order n log n. This is of course an upper bound but we also can find a similarly a lower bound what we could do is substitute one half of these numbers with n by 2 so we know that the upper half of these are all going to be greater than equal to n by 2 so I know that this summation is greater than equal to i equals n by 2 to n of log of n by 2 and well if you expand this this is nothing but omega n log n the n by 2 is log of n minus log of 2 and that just gives you n by 2 log n minus n by 2 log 2 so this is omega n log n so this is what the tree of permutations looks like here sigma i stands for the i th permutation so each of these leaf nodes is a permutation and all together there are in factorial such unique permutations we have actually made an assumption that we are dealing with unique elements it is possible that some of the numbers get repeated analysis is not very different in that case as we discussed the number of leaves is n factorial and this implies that min height of such a tree is omega of n log n. So what we are saying is for any algorithm that needs to make these comparisons and reach one of the permutations for a given sequence s to reach from s to the correct permutation let us say this is a correct permutation sorted permutation so you cannot but avoid traversing the tree from the root to the leaf which means you will have to traverse at least n log n. Now is there an algorithm that helps us achieve this lower bound so recall that a min heap abstract data type stores the index and the value of the smallest element in the root and the smallest element is defined as that which has a lowest value this must hold not only for the root but for every substructure. So in general the value of the parent of i must be less than equal to the value of i which is all the other descendants we see that 40 is less than 70 and 90 and so on this is actually a min heap and this min heap can be structure can be constructed for a sequence s this can be done in at most order n log n time and this invokes a sequence of heapification operations on every subtree we will recap this when we discuss sorting using the min heap. So the idea behind min heap sort is to do the following given the sequence s convert it into p by calling the heapify function on s once we have that you could use p to recover s as follows you can retrieve the smallest element of p and keep adding them to s for all e equals min of p add e to s this you do in an appending manner and then go back to b and delete e from p that is what we have shown here first you insert elements from s into p while maintaining the min heap nature of list p. So recap that this is nothing but invoking p the min heap as a priority q abstract data type now for every insertion you are going to traverse the height of the existing tree. So initially the tree is very small so you traverse a tree of size 1 log 1 and then you have 2 elements log 2 and so on up to log n and this is order n log n. Similarly you delete element e from p this you do by removing that min element and pushing it into the sequence s this is order n when you remove the first element and then it is log n minus 1 and so on again eventually it is order of n log n. So order n log n overall is it possible to avoid constructing an external data structure p and instead do in place heap construction. So before we do that we will see what the array corresponding to a min heap looks like. So the element 10 which is the smallest element is going to be stored at position 1 the immediate children are stored at positions 2 and 3 and thereafter we have the leaves stored at position 4 to 7 but what exactly is the structure here the leaves of a node with index i are at positions 2i and 2i plus 1 this is a property that holds for every node and you can easily verify this in this simple example. So the basic idea is as follows the root of the entire tree will be at the first position position 1 its children will be at positions 2 and 3 and in general for an element with index i which is basically root of some subtree its immediate children will be at positions 2i and 2i plus 1 of course for i to have children this will mean that all these roots of subtrees should lie within the first n by 2 elements of the array it is n by 2 floor and that we can see here for 7 elements the intermediate non-leaf nodes cover the first 3 elements of the array. So to do in place min heap sort here is what we will do we realize that since the top of the list is always going to be the minimum element amongst all the elements that follow it we will we will grow the min heap as follows we initially build a min heap convert the entire array into min heap so what we will have is the smallest element here I am this will be a smallest however it is not necessary that the next element is the next smallest and so on. So what we do is invoke min heapify on the next node so the next minimum node must be between positions 2 and 3 you do a comparison and thereafter push thus next smallest element to the second position now we may have to do little bit more work because the tree that has resulted might not completely satisfy the min heap structure if you just treat this third node as a root node in fact it may not be even a completely balanced tree in general the min heap tree would have a bunch of nodes and is complete except for the last layer so except for the last layer the tree will be complete. So therefore you may have to restructure the node to make it complete so that that min heapify should take care of let us discuss this in place min heap sorting in some more details all this is happening within a single array so formally a min heap of n elements is a complete boundary tree with all levels except the last one being filled the last level is filled from left to right as I pointed out the value of an item at parent is less than equal to the values of children and the minimum element will be at the root so in the array setup the child of node k will one be at 2k and the other child will be at 2k plus 1 of course this is provided the latter two are less than equal to n if not then one of them may be empty and that is why it is possible that the last level is not necessarily completely filled up. So the idea of heap sort is use the left portion of s up to index i minus 1 to contain element sorted so far this is the element sorted so far and the right portion stores remaining elements in a heapified form and here is the algorithm or formally given input sequence s the first step is to convert s into a min heap and you would like to do this in place of course you do not want to use an auxiliary data structure this can be done. So the idea is to iterate from the left to the right we already expect after the build min heap operation we expect the first element of this array to be the minimum element so what you need to do subsequently is min heapify the remaining array we are not building a min heap from scratch because we know that to a large extent the heap structure is satisfied it is only about where to push this element new element at the top and retain the heap structure at each of its children and correct at the child at which some violation might take place. So this is the min heapify which needs to be invoked on this remaining sub array this you keep doing till you hit the length of the array s what is the min heapify sub routine so if you are at a position i consider its children who are at position l equals to i and r equals to i plus 1 so if the array element at l happens to be less than the value of the array element at i then you know that the min is l which case you will need to do some reordering or restructuring so you basically do some bookkeeping and keep track of which of these is to is the min if i happens to be the min there is not much to do in fact you could stop likewise for r you make a comparison with i you do not need to compare between l and r because each of them only needs to be ensured as a min heap structure so once you have found a minimum element check if that min element is i if it is not i then what you need to do is replace the l with an i or r with an i corresponding to which of them turned out to be minimum and that we are keeping track of through min so si is swapped with s min whichever of these is and then after you again call min heap if i s min there is no need to min heap if i other subtree the subtree that did not correspond to the min element and the reason for this is we already had a min heap before i got introduced so the whole purpose here is to ensure that insertion of a new element will honor the heap structure the build min heaps of routine builds this entire initial heap from the array s and again this happens in a in place manner so you begin with the first non-leaf node from the right hand side so s is 1 to n by 2 to n so we know that this is the first non-leaf node or eternal node from the right hand side so you scan this array from n by 2 floor from this index and till you find the left hand wall end of the array you invoke min heap if i on the sub array rooted at that element i am spanning until the end of the array so for an arbitrary index i what this will mean is invoking min heap if i with respect to this sub array what are we doing in this process well first of all we do not really care for the last n by 2 nodes because they are the leaves and all we want to make sure is every subtree has optimal min heap kind of structure the desired min heap structure and moving left is basically like having a new element added and you need to make sure that that element is compatible with the existing min heap structure so you can just invoke min heap and have i trickle down into that branch which gets affected because of i now this complexity is as follows min heap if i needs to traverse the height of the tree so the actual expression for this is summation i equals 1 to n log i where log i is the cost invoked for the ith invocation and we know that this is at most n log n question is can we get a better bound is there a better upper bound the answer is that log i being upper bounded by log n is too loose we could actually tighten it and we do it as follows we change the summation from summation over the nodes i equals 1 to n to summation on a height the height can go from 1 to log of n and what we find is this height can repeat for multiple examples in fact for tree of height n for tree of height h at most n by 2 raise to h plus 1 nodes exist right this we know from the fact that an n element heap has height log n so h equals log n work backwards and find the number of nodes the maximum number of nodes in a tree of height h so what we can do is add this scaling factor n divided by 2 raise to h plus 1 but this is now applied to a tree of height h so you will of course have the original linear time complexity in the height so we just rewritten the expression here which I am marking in yellow slightly differently in terms of height and it turns out that with some amount of manipulation this is nothing but order of n so in particular we have made use of a very important equality which is summation over k equals 0 to infinity of k times x raise to k is x divided by 1 by x square and in particular we have set x to the value of half so you can convince yourself that by setting x to the value half and using n here well in this total number of nodes you can actually get the same expression so this is order n so what is interesting is we have found a more efficient way of building them in heap so that is order n however our continuous invocation of min heapify in heap sort will still constrain our upper bound to be n log n so recall that our min heapify subroutine was log n and this will be invoked n times and that makes the complexity n log n so we have found one algorithm which runs in order n log n and that is a heap sort question is are there other algorithms is this unique where it turns out there are a couple of other algorithms and a very important framework for discussing some such algorithms is the merge sort framework that will be in the next session thank you

So my beauty for people, I am back with another Outer Ring video, and well I'm not sure how long you guys have been a fan, a sub or followed me, but you probably ain't away, you've only joined me since Outer Ring, that I speak my mind, I mean I don't care whose feelings I hurt, if things need to be said, it can pretty much guarantee I will say them. And what needs to be said today is, Outer Ring's PvP is utter garbage. How's it going guys, my name's DPJ and if you do enjoy the video, leaving a like really helps and if you like what you see and want to see more, be sure to subscribe. So yes, Outer Ring PvP is garbage, now I ain't going to over exaggerate this and tell you guys I play 24-7 this, that and the other, I mean I've played it a little, this is coming more so from actual people who play a lot, I mean I'm reading plenty of people, I'm reading to plenty of people all over social media, Reddit, my own Discord, Twitter, Facebook, whatever, that PvP in Outer Ring is just going downhill. I mean when I first played it, I mean it was quite fun, I mean don't get it twisted, there are still quite a few instances where people are actually trying to play, they ain't hiding on top of a building, trying to AFK farmoons, which is just completely stupid and pointless, which I'll talk about again in a quick second, but I think it's like the way in which the PvE side of this game works, putting them both together, kind of in my opinion doesn't work for PvP because, let's just talk about builds for a second here, I mean I'm not bashing any kind of build, I've put quite a few builds out there that are utterly brutal, my main goal is for builds to be used in PvE, but hey you can't stop people using them in PvP and that is kind of the problem here, I mean I've entered a couple of games of PvP and I've been literally one hit, don't know what's going on but I've been one hit, which just completely breaks the balance of things, now this kind of annoys me the fact that people can be so overpowered, but at the end of the day that is an exclusive, that one person you've gone to PvP and fought, him being super powerful and being able to basically one tap you, is an exclusive to him, there's nothing stopping you from doing the same kind of thing, there are plenty of builds out there which allow you to do this kind of thing, and yes there are broken things in this game, items like coding shiujiki news which can allow you to one tap more or less anything in PvP and a few other things as well which I do feel from software will clamp down on, will nerf into the ground, which again is something I don't really agree on, I don't agree on developers nerfing things into the ground, I think a balance is needed, but hey that's just my opinion, an opinion that's come from 15 years of YouTube gaming where I've seen many many things ruined due to them once being overpowered, I'm just being nerfed too far never to make a comeback, I hate that kind of thing, hopefully some software can get things right when it comes to nerfing, but even still there are certain things in the game which are utterly broken which you can take advantage of even in PvP, but again that isn't the issue I have, the main issue I have is trying to find someone to actually play with, test things out with or even sometimes help a lot of the time I'll enter someone's lobby and they're hiding in a spot which only the jar cannon can reach, AFK farming runes, I'm like what the hell is wrong with people, I mean yes don't get it twisted I guess it's a decent way to AFK farm runes, I mean if these people that live in their basements want to actually eventually go outside and experience the feeling of grass they've now got a way in which they can put their controller down leave their keyboard and mouse aside and still earn runes, will be I mean it's like 15 to 20k every I don't know invasion maybe I mean it's obviously the higher your level could be possibly the higher the enemy who invades you to level as well probably the more runes you get, but I mean you can literally guys you can literally go to the bird farm at any level doesn't matter what level you are and earn between 13 and 18k every 15-20 seconds at a push, I mean if you've got things like the relic sword, that mohawk spear, any kind of air with effects spell you can take out the whole hill in about 15 or 20 seconds to earn 50k upwards, why are people AFK farming PVP it just doesn't make sense to me and I experienced a couple of people doing this so I just went on to YouTube search it up a little bit AFK PVP farm and I found quite a few videos on people actually showcasing how this is done now I'm not gonna mention any names but trying to fight through people advertising websites that sell weapons and runes is something I didn't think I'd face but when I eventually fought through these websites these scammy websites which I've been a victim of in the past myself hey these guys know exactly what they're doing advertising this shit but hey that's a different story but that isn't my problem I mean at the end of the day if they want to break terms of service that's completely down to them they want to earn a couple grand out of it that's completely up to them who might a judge either way a lot of these videos are basically promoting and advertising methods in which you can AFK farm by getting into weird spots people invade you can't get to you either end up leaving or whatnot or someone invading helps the person you're invading and kills you they still get wounds but it isn't that much and I see one was like 10 million an hour 20 million an hour doing this I don't I don't think so I don't think so I mean yes YouTube's algorithm the majority have to click bait we have to use those red arrows I ain't innocent of this either this super OP super one-hit build I mean a lot of enemies it does one hit but for the bigger guys it don't and probably never will and there ain't many builds out there that actually do this but hey we're all fighting to help those viewers so a lot of people will click bait I mean more or less everybody clicks now on YouTube if you don't and you ain't super original you probably ain't gonna get anywhere but either way these kind of AFK farms are making the whole PVP experience just a boring one now personally me I don't play PVP that much this has come from the basis of actual feedback I've seen all over social media Facebook Reddit Twitter my own discord a lot of people are just bored of PVP because when they want to go in there and actually battle have fun test that builds which is fair enough even if they are super powerful five times out tender coming across players that just AFK in trying to farm runes and this kind of thing was always going to be a problem without a ring with so many possibilities and so many opportunities people were gonna find these kind of things the only reliable thing I can think of is from software I do believe will be on top of the instances many people are experiencing with PVP I mean there's major major balance issues there pushing the AFK farming aside there's major issues within PVP balancing you can still find it fun that cat and mouse chase and I know a lot of people still do find it fun a lot of people actually have a lot of fun in trying to find these people AFK in which is more up my street but at the end of the day guys PVP right now in my opinion is sinking it's dead and can't imagine it getting any better any time soon until from software clamp down on the fuckery that goes down within it now ain't gonna sit here and cost people ain't gonna sit here and be little people who take advantage of AFK farming who take advantage of overpowered builds because at the end of the day you paid for this game you play how you want I know I play how I want and ain't nobody stopping me doing that this video is more on the basis more of a rant on PVP as a whole and with many more instances I haven't even spoke about today which is just drawing the PVP side of this game further and further away from the incredible game which is Alden Ring but yeah guys I just wanted to make a show of it well say sure it's gonna not like almost eight minutes now I planned it being short but hey one of those things there's so much things to learn about but yeah the PVP side Alden Ring in my opinion is trash at the minute for sure there's fun still to be had there but for the majority it's not a nice experience it's a boring experience and if you don't believe me download Google Chrome add that dislike button extension go and check out a lot of these PVP videos especially the one showcasing AFK farms and his crazy PVP overpowered builds and you'd be surprised at the negativity surrounding these videos but hey it is what it is and this is just my opinion please tell me your opinion down below within that comment section even if it differs to mine please let me know but guys on that note the end of the video has arrived if you enjoyed it leaving a like really helps out if you like what you see want to see more Alden Ring be sure to subscribe and hopefully my beautiful people I will see you on that next one

It's been six years since Amakawa Alice's family disappeared, and the cute but destructive creatures called Kosmoffs invaded her world. Alice has been holding down the fort, fighting wild Kosmoffs, and protecting the humans who have survived in the hopes that her family will someday return. Hey everybody, welcome to another installment of A Week in Gictim here on YouTube, Geo here, and today we're talking Kosmofamilia, Volume 1. First, I want to give a big shout out to the folks at Seven Seas Entertainment for making this review possible. They sent this book my way to review, and I am very excited to talk about it because it looks wacky, fun, and vibrant, and that is a recipe for success in my opinion. That's the type of book I like to get into. What the heck is Kosmofamilia all about? In a nutshell, without going too overboard with the details, Kosmofamilia is this wacky story about these characters dealing with a cute but deadly invasion of these creatures called Kosmoffs, and they started out as these alien looking creatures, but when the protagonist's mother disappeared, all these alien creatures ran away, and what soon happened was that they somehow turned on everybody and started destroying property and destroying landscapes and eventually destroying homes and all that stuff. So at the center of this story, we find the character of Amakawa Alice. She is trying, and current present time, she is trying to locate her family. They were told that they would come back, but they haven't. They've disappeared for the past six years. Meanwhile, the world has turned on this family and have accused them of villainy and being sort of the originator of this alien invasion, if you will, and all these Kosmoff alien creatures ravaging the planet. Alice was told to wait for her family's return, and that's what she's doing. However, she can't help but feel distressed and depressed at what's happening. She's missing her family, and everybody is taking out those frustrations misguided, because through Alice we learn that it's not the family's fault. It's not her mother's fault, but yeah, she's having to take the, you know, the world to anchor, I guess, on her shoulders of them accusing the family of doing all that stuff, and they're constantly harassing her. However, the interesting part of this introduction for the story is that the town where our hero resides has a line of defense against the Kosmoff, and it turns out to be Alice herself, and somehow has this cool looking scythe weapon that she's seen in the cover, so I'm not really spoiling anything, and she's taking out all the Kosmoff alien creatures, which is really funny that they look extremely cute and adorable. You would think it'd be ugly looking zombie type monsters or something grotesque, you know, to vilify, but to have something cute and adorable sort of confuses the perception of what villainy is supposed to look like, I don't know, just some immediate ramblings I guess on my head, but the character of Alice, she's the line of defense in her town, and she's quite the abled badass taking care of these alien creatures. So what soon follows without really spoiling or getting too into the story is sort of this anime-ish version of, or in this case manga I should say, my bad, this manga-esque version of an Alice in Wonderland type event filled with time-traveling hijinks, adorable monsters, super-powered magical girls, dark fantasy elements, you see where I'm going with this. Cosmo Familia's mangaka, it is Hanokage, who did the manga adaptation of Madoka Magica. So I do see a lot of elements from that series into this Cosmo Familia manga, aside from the Madoka, you know, the magic world stuff with the super-powered abilities and whatnot, but it plays with perception of what you think the story is about. There comes a point where the character saves an individual and that individual sort of blows the lid on this exposition on what the story is going to be about and how there's this force that's looking for her mother, sort of this police force if you will, and that leads into some time-traveling hijinks that I won't reveal what happens when that occurs, but it also opens the gate for the future of this manga title. I have to be completely honest with you guys, the first couple chapters, I was a little confused. I didn't know what the heck I was reading, I mean I understand the basic premise, it's simple enough, but I was confused because everything was a little bit too hectic and rushed at the beginning. It's not until you get to the final portion of this book when the time-traveling starts where you start learning what is really happening, you know, the plot forms a little bit better and you know where you're headed and you understand how this title involves magical girls and supernatural aspects which I thought was really interesting and I cannot wait, I really do want to pick up more volumes of this series just to keep following the series and to see if Alice can find her family again. We do get hints of that but nothing's concrete, we're thrown a lot of red herrings and we're trying to decipher as we're reading just what these creatures are and how is her mother's involvement the catalyst for all the craziness in this manga because you do see some type of body enhancements later on and some really kick ass character designs towards the end. But yeah, I'm intrigued, you know, part of what I said that it's a little bit hectic also has to do with the fights, the fighting in this series or the action scenes I should say, the action scenes in this manga, they're a little bit all over the place and it was for me at least it was a little bit hard to follow, it all felt a little claustrophobic and cluttered and later volumes when everything winds down you start understanding everything a little bit better and you start realizing who the characters are, some of them actually kind of look similar to each other so it can be a little bit confusing for new readers I guess but the overall structure is there, you're going in on this magic ride of strange creatures and sci-fi elements filled with magical girls, it's a, I like it, it's an acquired taste, it's not my immediate go-to genre when it comes to manga or anime but I'm excited, I think it's a fun kooky title with a very interesting premise that you're able to take the magical girl concept and mix it with sci-fi and action stuff, battle shonen elements and whatnot, I think it lends itself for a very fun read for readers of all ages. The idea of Alice is really interesting, I like her dilemma and ongoing quest to find her family and she's neither too bummed out nor too high energy, she's just wanting to get her life back and will do whatever it takes and it lends itself to some really cool character exposition I guess. The art like I mentioned for the most part is very clean, concise, the action can be a little bit claustrophobic and cluttered but it looks fun and energetic, there's a kinetic ferocity to the slices and stuff like that, especially towards the end, there's a final starting fight towards the end which I thought looked really good and well choreographed compared to the beginning where you're seeing a lot of bubbly effects and slicing through like the cosmos, one of them I believe was sort of like an elephant looking thing so there's a lot of circular drawings in the first panels of this manga but it looks cool, I dig it, it's an interesting monster design if you will or character designs for the enemy and obviously when you have time travel and magical stuff you know that you're in for a wild ride and nothing is what it seems so I'm very much looking forward to that. Well I really enjoyed Cosmo Familia and I am looking forward to more volumes to unravel the mystery of just what the heck is going on with these alien creatures and Raika Alice's mom. Have you guys read Cosmo Familia? Let me know in the comment section down below and if not recommend me your magical, your favorite magical girl series, that's not Sailor Moon, no please cause that's the go-to answer for a lot of people, your favorite magical girl manga or anime and your favorite time travel story, why not, I'm very interested in finding out. I want to give a big shout out to the folks at Seven Seas Entertainment for making this review possible, thank you so much, I am beyond thrilled at the opportunity to get to experience these manga volumes and share my thoughts to the world and to whoever wants to learn about these fine books. So yeah do check out Cosmo Familia if you can, it's a pretty interesting, fun title. As always guys, thank you for liking, commenting, subscribing and being a part of what we can geek them here on YouTube. You can of course follow me on social media, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, all that fun stuff. I've got to go, I've got more stuff to read and review so I will catch all of you on our next episode.

200k subscribers के बावजूद media क्यों डूब रहा है? | Peepal Farm Update #54
|
#PeepalFarmUpdate Ep. 54
Thanks to all of you, over 200,000 people have joined our YouTube family! Yes, this is just a number, but whenever we read the comments and see the changes we have caused in people's lives and the number of people who choose to do good and inspire others to do good every single day, we understand that this growing number is just a reflection of the increasing good in our society.
आप सब की वजह से हमारे यूट्यूब चैनल पर 200,000+ लोग जुड़ गए हैं! कहने को यह बस एक आकड़ा है, एक नंबर है, पर जब भी हम कमेंट्स में देखते हैं कि कितने सारे जीवन में सकारात्मक बदलाव लाते हैं; ना सिर्फ खुद यह लोग खुद अच्छा काम करना शुरू करते हैं, बल्कि दूसरो को भी अच्छा काम करने को प्रेरित करते हैं, तो समझ आता है कि यह बढ़ता नंबर, हमारे समाज में बढ़ते अच्छाई का एक प्रतीक है!

How different do you think it will be to last year? Well, we expect to be different in terms of our results. We've made a lot of changes to try and build something once more that can bring us success and maintain that success. We've had it for three years. We want to build a team now that for the next three years can be very successful and we plan to do that and our fans should be optimistic. They should be patient as well. There's a lot of new players that will need some time to gel to get that fluency but with what we're seeing at training so far we're excited and looking forward to the start.

Hello guys. Welcome to the session. Today we are going to discuss some problems for ITGE and need exams. The topic we picked up today is electrochemistry. We have already had a session already on this electrochemistry. We have discussed around 7-8 problems there, a J-level problem. Subjective questions we are discussing. You see there is no option over here. So these are the questions of ITGE but it is not like it is only useful for those kids who are preparing for ITGE. Concept you must understand. It helps you in other competitive exams also. So look at this question number 9. The standard reduction potential is given for AG. ASP is given for AGI. Evaluate the potential of AG plus to AG electrode in a saturated solution of AGI. Also find the standard reduction potential of this electrode. You can pause the video and you can try this on your own. I am continuing with the solution over here. You see the electrode potential of AG plus to AG it is given. That is 0.799. AGI KSP value is given. When we have this saturated solution of AGI, the half cell reactions are. What are the half cell reactions? We have AG electrode and AGI saturated in the solution. So first reaction is the conversion of AGI into silver plus I minus. This is reduction reaction cathode. And the silver is getting oxidized. This is the reaction at anode. So overall the reaction is what we can add to the two and we can find out the E value of this. This KSP of AGI is given. So we can find out the AG plus concentration. AGI is given. That is the concentration of AG plus into the concentration of I minus. So concentration of AG plus square is equals to because both will be equal. So this is equal to 8.7 into 10 to the power minus 70. When you solve this, you will get AG plus concentration as we calculate this root over of it. That is around 9.3 root over of it and this is 10 to the power minus 9. This is the AG plus concentration we get. Now the standard reduction potential of AG plus to AG is given. We need to find out electrode potential of this. So we can write down the next equation for this, which is E of AG plus to AG is equals to E naught of AG plus to AG minus 0.0591 by 1 log of 1 by AG plus. So now we can substitute the value of E naught of AG plus and AG plus here will get the answer. E naught of AG plus is 0.799 minus 0.0591 by 1 log of 1 by 9.3 into 10 to the power minus 9. You can solve this. You'll get the electrode potential for AG plus to AG is approximately 0.324 volt. This is the first part of this question. AG plus to AG electrode in a saturated solution electrode potential is 0.324 volt. Also find the standard reduction potential of this electrode I minus AG I and AG. The cell that we have right this cell standard reduction potential of this we need to find out. So this means what the reaction if you consider here we have AG I saturated. So for this cell for this cell that E naught cell will be E naught cell will be because E cell is zero. So it is 0.0591 log KSP. KSP of what? AGI. So we know all these value when you substitute you'll get 0.0591 log of KSP is 8.7 into 10 to the power minus 17. So when you solve this you'll get minus 0.95. This is the E naught cell of this. Now you see this E naught cell is equals to what we can write further because we need to find out for. So here you see we need to find out the standard reduction potential of this electrode right I minus to I plus and AG plus to AG right AG plus to AG and I minus to I plus we have. Okay, so the E naught cell for this E naught cell for this one will be the E of E naught of cathode E naught of cathode minus E naught of and both are reduction potential. E naught cell we have calculated and I know this what I know this silver electrode because this is saturated resolution. So this is one electrode and this is another electrode right this is one electrode and this is another electrode. So here you see E naught of cathode and what is AG plus we have so E naught of cathode is equals to minus of 0.95 plus for AG plus it is 0.799 reduction. So when you solve this you'll get negative of 0.151. So this is the answer. So we have to answer one is this the one is this reduction potential E value is this standard reduction potential of E cathode is this right. So we need to find out we have actually two electrode one electrode is AG plus to AG and another electrodes is this I minus to AGI to AG means silver is present in in a solution in which which is saturated with AG. Okay, one behaves as cathode other one behaves as anode the reduction potential of AG plus is given for AG I KSP is given. Right, so we have calculated the reduction potential of standard reduction potential of this one right AG I that is that we have you know overall cell reaction is this overall cell reaction or how do we get when we add these two. Right, so cathode is this it is given here. So cathode is nothing but this which is this is here is the cathode. That's why we'll write this and E naught cathode is nothing but this. Okay, that is the answer for this question. Okay. Next question you see. You see there's a storage cell Edison storage cell is represented by this is given half reactions are also given. Okay, and I two or three such to a gives this. E naught value is given for both and both are reduction reaction. If you observe this, both are reduction reaction. And hence the potential that is given that is the reduction potential. So what we can conclude from this, since the electron is getting consumed here. So both are RPs reduction potential. This is also reduction potential. So the one which has more reduction potential will get reduced. Okay, so cathode is cathode is. This reduction. Okay, I'll write down here. This is cathode. Obviously it is the right side. So it is cathode left side. So it is and right side cathode left side and okay cell reaction will be what will have to add the two reaction. Right, we have to add the two reaction. So what we'll do will inverse the second one and we'll add with two. Right, we'll inverse the second one and we'll add it to the cell reaction is here cell reaction is will inverse the two and add with the first one. So I'm writing it down directly. F e solid. Plus. And I two or three solid. X two or one electron gets cancelled. Right hand side we have two and I oh solid. Plus F E O. Okay, this is the cell reaction. So first one we have done a bees what bees what is the emf the cell. How does it depend on the concentration of keywords emf of the cell is what he said again will use last equation is equals to E naught of the cell. 0.0591 by two log of n I O square F E O divided by F E and and I do. I think this should be right. All these are given solid. So this thing is one. We can write this entire thing as one because all given is solid. Right, so directly we can substitute here. E naught of the cell is what ecathode minus enode. So ecathode is this. That is 0.40 minus E anode is this that is minus of 0.87 minus 0.0591 divided by log. One is zero. So answer for this question is the sum of these two, which is 1.27. Now the OH minus concentration that we have here, it gets cancelled right it is not present in this expression there's no OH present here. Hence what we can write the second part of this, the E cell is independent of KOH concentration. This is the second part of this question. Okay, so this is the another answer we have. Now the last one is C. What is the maximum amount of energy that can be obtained from one mole of ni two or three. Okay, so one mole of the energy is what the energy is nothing but the delta G. But we have to talk about the magnitude here. NF E cell, E cell, right. Since maximum amount of energy has been asked, so it must be E naught cell. You won't take EMF. EMF is this E cell. E naught cell if you take when it has 100% efficiency, all these E naught cell converts into energy, then we'll get the maximum energy, right. That's why we have taken E naught not E cell. So we'll substitute 2 into 96500 into 1.27, the E naught cell, which is 245.11 kilo. So this is the answer for the question. Okay, so I hope all of you understood this. Thank you for listening and see you in the next video.

Reverend Sanders: The Drug War Is The Mask

The war on drugs is a mask of racism, homophobia, sexism and many other evil things - said Rev.

Thank you and now it gives me great pleasure to introduce our final speaker of the morning session my dear friend the longtime board member of the drug policy alliance the senior servant and metropolitan interdenominational church in Nashville Tennessee Reverend Edwin Sanders. I want to stand back to your feet all those freedom movements that Ethan just listed every one of them has a freedom song so I'm gonna treat you treat you one today okay I'm just gonna start singing this song if you know it and that's something that don't know it I'm just gonna ask you to learn it real quick it just goes like this we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes that's it that's all of it we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest there you go we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes come on louder than that we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it come take the roof off this time we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes. Ethan talked about freedom but freedom is a constant struggle freedom is not what we do on our day off freedom is not the business that we're about but it's convenient and easy freedom is not something that we can opt into and opt out of freedom is not something that we can excuse ourselves from when we desire if we're going to be a part of this movement there's a way in which we have to understand that we cannot rest until it comes on July August the 12th Ethan sent me an email and the first line of the email was what a day if only every Monday was like this I've held onto that ever since because we need to be the people who can stand up every day and say what a day we need to be able to know that every day is the right day it's not just the day when we've heard from Washington the news that we want to need to hear it's not just the day when we've been able to have the experiences that allow us to have some sense of individual and collective success in our efforts it's not just the day when we personally feel like something we've done has made a difference but it's the day that has to become our every day Ethan said he wishes every Monday could be that way I want every day to be that way because there's a way in which we ought to be able to say every day it's all right it's all right now I want you to have that line I'm used to talking to people who talk back to me all right if you don't want to talk back you gotta say man but not wink or do something and let me know you hear me right and I did the first thing I want to say about this business about it's all right and that's the line I want you to hold on to today it's just simply it's all right let me hear you say that you see it's all right today because we're the right people and we're the right place I mean it's all right all right we're the right people in place it's the right day it's the right issue and if we allow ourselves to live up to the possibilities of potential the locked up the people in this room we can be sure that the drug war will be brought to an end so I realize I was going to end up with only about 15 or 20 minutes so I decided what I was going to do was give you the title of all five of the messages I intended to deliver the first one was don't take no for an answer is that all right the second one was don't turn back the third one was overcoming the culture of oppression the fourth one was living in the shadows of the Empire and the fifth one is one that many of you all know especially your reggae fan if you know any Grants boys at all is living on the front line let me tell what I heard in our session yesterday we brought fake leaders together one of the things that we talked about in that session was we talked about the whole business of how this movement has evolved in the places that we're celebrating it today and one of the things I will suggest to you is that movements don't happen unless there's something unless there's some energy unless there's some force and that's there's some dynamic unless there's some presence unless there's something that transcends what we can easily reduce to what we can embrace with our limited ability to logically and reasonably wrap our minds around it the first thing I'm convinced we have to understand is that it's beyond the limitations of reason and logic but what we're talking about in this movement requires you being able to see being able to believe being able to embrace being able to visualize being able to somehow carry your heart the awareness that what you're trying to do even though all of the all the factors in life might say it's beyond what can be done you have to be the one that believes there's something bigger and there's something greater and there's something that you can do that no one else can see and see as being possible when Ethan stands here and talks about the movement that transcended to the end of slavery don't you know that no one who had shackles on their feet who had to have the whip marks on their back who did not have any of the privileges that were a part of the ideals of this country could even began to see the possibility that we would be here today you see it's only because there's a spirit that carried it what we talked about a little bit yesterday was trying to talk about how we own how we shape how we fashion how we end up being a part of constructing the spirit of this movement and I'm convinced this captured that little song I had to singing the just simply said we who believe in freedom will not rest until it comes don't you know there were those who they never believed that women's rights would be where they are today don't you know that just 30 or 40 years ago there are those who never would believe the same gender loving people would be able to freely marry and have relationships that are accepted and affirmed and celebrated in places where you never thought there would be before don't you know there's no way that the rights that we take for granted are not the byproduct of some people who had to rise above the limitations of logic and we need to understand that from where we are today because this movement is one that's going to have a transforming effect upon the world and the times in which we live each of the senator but you need to hear it in your own heart in your own voice in your own way you understand if we do this right we'll deal with all the complex and difficult issues that are undermining the infinite possibilities of life available available for all of us in this world if we do this right we'll adjust the issues of economic opportunity if we do this right we will deal with the issues of access to housing and that kind of thing if we do this right we will deal with health care that's available to everywhere everybody everywhere if we do this right you see there's a thread in this there's a way in which I cannot be happy I cannot be content I cannot be satisfied I cannot sit out I can't stop until I know that the forces that drive and the forces that continue to be a part of what allows this horror to be visited upon us in the name of the drug war is not going to go away don't you know then drug war I want you to understand this right now it's nothing but the mask of all the stuff we hate the drug war is the mask of racism the drug war is the mask of sexism the drug war is the mass of xenophobia the drug war is the mass of homophobia Islamophobia and all the other stuff that contend it's the mask and one of the things that we're gonna do is take off the mask I'm almost ashamed to tell you this I don't know why Ethan I depend on Ethan to feed me information that's my wife right there Billy I'll wait by your hand Billy let me tell you what Billy says about me all the time she says if you'll be able to say this about Ethan's speech this morning she says I can be with you where you heard something the same time I heard it for the first time and the next time I hear you deliver the switch I would swear you were it all originated with you now I depend on Ethan all the time to feed me information but yesterday we started talking about the Netherlands and the way in which that country had made one of the more important steps historically in terms of dealing with this issue of drugs and rights and the line that I picked up on either what you never gave me before was ever really what underverted that in the Netherlands was this line that all people are worth what all people are worth saving is that the line all people are worth saving can you imagine what that means all people are worth saving you see what that means is that that gave a speck gave a voice to a spirit that gave a voice to a power that gave a voice to something that transcends all the limitations and all the barriers of fragmentation and division because there's a way in which what we have to do at the heart at the core at the center of this movement is make sure that all about efforts are shaped in a fashion that are affirming of all people I like the way what sir let's say a little bit earlier it's ending the war on people who use drugs in the war on people who use drug it's kind of like going to the doctor I tell people all the time you always want to go to a doctor who treats the person who has a disease versus the doctor who treats the disease that the person has that might not sound like it's a big difference but the difference is it's about people it's not just about individuals it's about community it's about understanding that there's something inherent that there's something that's a part of who we are as human beings that's always mitigating the direction of trying to bring together pull together keep together hold together the community of people that some people like monster king junior referred to as the beloved community but there was a community that had a heart in a way that allowed as how the thermon said when we engage each other my relationship to you is when my heart connects with your heart when my heart in your heart began to resonate as one when my heart and your heart come to be a part of a fabric that is seamless and cannot easily be torn apart because we've been woven into that which we are as a result of a spirit that's bigger than all of us even your dad would have been proud of you this morning that boy prayed in front of everybody you know even his father was a rabbi was a rabbi he learned it well he heard it enough he knew it I always like it without eating too because he always understands like to call up the last minute say even gotta do a funeral gotta do wedding gotta do this and other but you know let me just tell you this it is about people understand that you not only have to have to just give lip service to the ways in which you believe and know and understand there's some energies there's some forces there's some powers working that are bigger than we are there's a way in which we have to appreciate the fact that we are the evidence of that fabric right now we are the drug policy congregation we are the drug policy assembly we are the people who right now represent what is the greatest hope to ending the insanity and the madness that is loose all around us so we can't ever take no for an answer we can't take no for an answer we have to be the ones who will insist on being heard we can't take no for an answer if you're not going to take no for an answer the first thing you have to do you have to move beyond your fear and there's still fear that continues to be the thing that cripples and undermines and represents a stumbling block in terms of this movement there are too many people in Congress I was so glad to hear the congressman suggest that perhaps there are some ways in which we will see some changes because of the way in which this groundswell of energy which we represent in this room is going to impact the behavior of a lot of folks in Washington who even if they get on board for the wrong reason you know let me tell you something about a strong voice okay a strong voice will make bad people do the right thing you can understand you know there's a great text a great biblical text and I always it doesn't make any difference you have to read the Bible or another text even that's a great story about a woman who says she had to go to a judge who had no fear of God and no respect for people but it says she just kept on coming and eventually the wall came down the barrier was removed the avenue was open and the possibilities were released we're the ones that have to understand we got a long way to go but a part of what we have to do is we can't take no fun answer but we have to make sure that our critique is relentless such that when you heard that time I gave you call the whole business of living in the shadow of the Empire it is great for us to be here where we are today it is a wonderful moment of affirmation of the energy and the effort that has gone forth in terms of this movement but you have to appreciate the fact that even right now we are living in the shadow of the Empire right now it's obviously not in the interest of those who see themselves in this world as the true power elite to be a part of this movement but we have to understand that if we continue to raise the issues as we should if we continue to insist on not accepting no for an answer there's a way in which those who in some ways we think can never be moved bad people bad people can be moved and force to do the right thing there are people who are profiting there are people who are getting funky rich every day every day often continue to perpetuate this madness but we need to understand and they need to understand that we are not those who will try to pretend that the issue of the power being vested in the hands of just a few is not a part of what continues to perpetuate the problem we're talking about freedom we talked about freedom and we have to be clear about what it means but last but not least we have to understand what it means to be those who are living on the front line the people live on the front line the first thing you got to know is you got to be ready to live on the fire you got to be ready to live on the fire because there are people who are taking aim and there are people who are trying to undermine there are people who are not our friends who are about the business of trying to make sure that this movement does not go forward I couldn't help but appreciate Ethan's words when he said there's a way in which we have to look at those of you that it began to bring down some of the barriers and understand that we've got to figure out how to support you encourage you and stand with you because you're going to be living under fire you're living on the front line the first thing you have to second thing you have to realize is that where you are is simply at the point that there are literally tens and hundreds of thousands who in the ranks behind you who need us to continue to speak up speak out and if necessary act up until that which we need is addressed and done the third thing we have to do is we have to live in the way that for us says we will live in the light you know it's important not to allow ourselves to become in any way closet it anyway let me just tell you five minutes actually I was gonna stop in about two that's all right so I got three more minutes to work with all right but you have to get ready for this you got to be able to live in the light every day it's not easy we're talking about bringing the faith community into this arena and for us to speak the truth that needs to be and has to be spoken around this issue and I should not say bring into this gap the faith community has always been here and involved but we're talking about a massive involvement in a way that we have not seen before especially in the communities of those who are being disproportionately impacted more than others we are blessed that we've now been able to create an alliance and a relationship with the same process to the work that they're doing we're blessed in that the folks from Pico who've always been there on social justice issues have been there we need to appreciate the fact that we do have an opportunity in the next few months I'm convinced to be a part of doing something that might see for us Ethan a greater return on the promises that were made in this last electoral season when the president won his second term we need to be figuring out right now how to make sure that the midterm elections come out in a way that give the kind of reason why I have hoping that I have hoping it because we're talking about a president who spent more than the last two decades almost three decades of his life organizing people around social justice issues in the south side of Chicago now we got to figure out how we bring that energy to bear with the presence in the White House and when that happens we're going to all know that we did the right thing in terms of our support and in terms of but that's only going to happen when we continue to be the ones who push the issues stand up speak up and necessary act up and the last thing I want to tell you is that you got to learn what it means to just keep the faith now for some of y'all that instantly takes you to a place of difficulty because some of y'all have been alienated from the institutions that you think of as being identified with faith but why don't suggest to you is that it's bigger than any religion in and of itself it has to do with something that's inherent in us all and that's the ability to believe in what you've heard me say now for the fourth time the infinite possibilities of life that's the only way you can believe in every person being a person that has worth it's the only way you can believe and what I'm saying to you today is that you have to keep the faith because you see when you're on the front line and when you're under fire you've got to be able to know that there is a power greater than you that there is something that is a part and akin to the truth that we've been trying to deliver through this movement for a number of years now and we have to be the ones who will stand in it stand for it and not let it go we have to be the ones who are the champions of the disenfranchised the marginalized the left out the forgotten the put down the held down the kept down the misused the abused we're the ones that have to be there every time a voice needs to be heard on behalf of those who are struggling every day to overcome the ways in which the ravages and the powers of this drug war have served to undermine the lives of so many it happens when people like you and me and all of us stand up stand up stand up stand up and speak up in the face of what might be a horror that's unfolding we're the ones that know in spite of everything it's what it's gonna be all right it's gonna be all right because we are the ones that are gonna stand up it's gonna be all right because we're the ones that are gonna speak up it's gonna be all right because we're the ones that won't turn back who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it come we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it come one more loud time we who believe in freedom cannot rest cannot rest we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes God bless you

Our next caller is Jacqueline from Washington. Hey Jacqueline, how can we help you? Hi, real quick, I just want to say thank you so much to all of you just for providing such incredible content. You all have just deeply impacted my health and wellness more than you can imagine. So thank you. Oh, thank you guys so much. My question is, I've been training consistently for about four or five years except for some part of COVID. But when I say consistently, I mean that I've been training my legs consistently because that's where I have a harder time just gaining muscle mass on my lower body. And so I definitely prioritize my leg days. I train my upper body maybe once or twice a month and actually feel really happy. That's the weird part. Like I feel really happy with the amount of muscle mass that I have on my upper body, but less happy with my strength. So I know I need to be more consistent with my upper body training, but because I know how easily I gain mass on my upper body, I feel for lack of a better word intimidated because I don't want to get too bulky. And I think thord bulky. But so have you ever helped anybody kind of get past that mental hurdle? And if you have, what helped? Yeah, no. It's actually super common. It is. That's a great question. So tip it with women, you'll see, you know, I don't want to work out my shoulders. I don't want to work out my back or my chest with guys. You'll see, I don't want to work out my legs because I don't care. I'm going to, I'm going to ask you a question, Jacqueline. So I'd like you to be totally honest. What is the number one motivation for you working out? Is it just the way you look? Cause I hear you talking about bulk and the way you look and the muscle. Is that the primary motivation for you? I think my overall motivation is that I just want to be confident. I want to be confident overall. Yes. That's how I look, but overall the strength. I, I think that a lot of confidence does come with how much I can lift. Okay. Or when, when that was at my peak before COVID. Okay, Jacqueline. So, okay. So again, I'm going to ask you again because if, if strength and confidence were the, your number one motivators, I don't think we'd be having this conversation because obviously working out provides a lot of different things. And most people, okay, I don't want you to feel bad. Most people work out because they want to change how they look. And that kind of dictates what they do in the gym. Strength. If your goal was just strength, then, you know, the comments wouldn't be, I'm afraid of getting bulky or I don't work out my upper body. Is this resonating with you? Yeah, somewhat. Okay. So, so a couple of things that can help you. All right. Number one, the road of focusing on how you look. There's nothing necessarily wrong with starting that way. But if you stay on that road, it will lead you in directions that eventually will start to take away how you look. And what I mean by that is the decisions that we make, that tend to be driven by appearance oftentimes. And right now you're, you're pretty young. I think, I think you, did you, I think you told us, you've been working out for a little while. You look like you're in your, in your 20s. 26. 26. If you continue down that path, eventually you'll start to hit some roadblocks and you'll start to actually lose the way you look. You see this in both men and women. So that's number one. Focusing on your whole body will actually contribute to your appearance, especially in the long-term, in a good way. But you can't go at it by just appearance. You have to focus on the mobility, the strength, the performance, and the health. And then the second part is that the body really has these interesting mechanisms, these safety mechanisms where it will only allow parts of your body to get so strong and developed in relationship to other parts of your body. It actually tries to maintain at least some semblance of balance. So like for guys who never work out their legs and they just want to get bigger arms, sometimes what they need to do to get bigger arms is to work out their legs. And vice versa. If you're having issues developing muscles in your legs, but your upper body strength is very low, believe it or not, your body may actually prevent you from reaching your full potential because it senses this big imbalance between your upper and lower body. Well, you'll lean out more for sure. 100% you'll lean out more by starting to build muscle in your upper body because you never do that. You train your legs so frequently that they're probably adapted to a lot of the training that you do. So when you actually switch over to doing more upper body, you're going to see the benefits of getting leaner in addition to building some muscle. Now, there's also this part too. I mean, I've trained clients that very similar. Our legs is the area that we needed the most work on. And her upper body looked pretty phenomenal already. Great shoulders, great arms. And so the frequency of upper body training was a lot less. I'm just training her legs two, three times a week. Upper body, we just did one time per week just to kind of maintain because she was very happy with where her physique is. So this is a back and forth between you and I. Hopefully, I'm able to convince you that, okay, doing it one time a week, we're going to see some great benefits from it. We're not going to overtrain it to where you're going to see this crazy development. It's hard to build tons of muscle as it is. One time a week is not going to do that to your upper body. A lot of times you see yourself different than other people. So that's the other thing I would challenge too is, are you the one who thinks that you are looking bulky when you lift your body or other people saying that to you? And have you ever asked somebody else who you trust their opinion and they go, actually, you look really good? That would be the other thing that I would challenge. But there's nothing wrong with having a body part that you feel is dominant already on your body and in your case, upper body and doing less frequency than the rest. I mean, if it's your body, if you like the way you look and feel, but then if you say to Sal that, okay, I want to be stronger in its confidence and it's not really so much about my aesthetics and how I look, well, then I would challenge you back again why aren't we training this once a week? Yeah, and you know, that's a great point, Adam. I mean, you don't need to train it as much as your lower body, but you should do something for it, just to maintain strength, mobility and function. And you don't need to attack it hard in the gym like you might do your lower body, but at the very least train it so that it's stable and strong. Otherwise, you know, like I said, that imbalance will get worse and worse. Even if you don't look imbalanced, a huge strength imbalance can cause some serious problems. Well, part also, like so, the client that I'm thinking about a very specific client would train for a long time and she didn't like the way that her legs look, like they, you know, she wanted to change the way the legs look so much and she wasn't doing much upper body and what I explained to her too is that, listen, you got to understand that if your body is so adapted to all this lower body training and you haven't done any upper body training, as soon as we start putting some focus there, you're going to build a little bit of muscle, that's going to speed your training up the legs and the legs will look even better. And I bet it did. Yeah, absolutely. So there's that to consider too. Okay. All right. Is that help you a little bit? It does. It does. It does because I guess it kind of gives me that motivation with all of your eyes' background and experience with working with different kinds of people and just, like, I know I need to do it, right? But it's just that mental, like, hurdle of, like, getting past it. Well, are you driven more towards, you know, working your lower body because you don't like the way your lower body looks so much or are you avoiding the upper body because you feel like you're, I mean, what is it that's really keeping you in that direction? I feel like we're kind of going back and forth on what is it that's driving you? I don't feel like the truth has fully came out yet. And maybe it's something that I'm also kind of thinking about too. I think that with my legs, like, it just makes me feel confident that I can be strong. But of course, there's that part of me that absolutely wants to develop them even more. Right now, I train them maybe three, three and a half times a week, just depending when I can get into the gym. But with my upper body, I just, I see, like, just how much, like, I just already feel like I don't want to add more mass on my upper body with the couple of upper body training days that I do already do. So that's where I'm a little confused myself. Well, keep in mind, what I'm telling you is that because you don't train it that often, the minute you start training it, you will build muscle, which will then hopefully speed your metabolism up, help you lean out. Which, which body fat takes up a lot more space than muscle does. So, you know, if you gained a pound, even a, even a, I mean, two pounds of muscle on your upper body would be a lot for a female. And you can't even tell. But if you, if you lost two pounds of body fat from your upper body, gained two pounds of muscle, you'd be smaller on your upper body because fat takes up so much more space. And then, back to your strength comment. Look, if somebody is strong in their upper body, but weak in their lower body or the reverse, somebody is strong in their lower body and weak in their upper body, guess what they are? They're weak. They don't have good strength. Your strength doesn't translate into the real world. So it doesn't matter, you know, if you're a man and you don't work out your legs and you've got a big back and chest and you bench press and row a lot. In the real world, when you go move a couch or go do something you're weak and the same is true for you, you may have strong legs. But if your upper body is not strong, then you're not really strong. Well, I wanted to ask you, have you done any kind of functional strength training? No, I don't think I have. Yeah, I just, I feel like there's just way too much in terms of, like, being fixated on your body parts and, you know, what's going up, what's going down. Like, have you ever just, like, thrown all of that out and just tried to master movements and, you know, work on skills and, you know, go in that direction? I think that'd be a healthy practice for you. Yeah, I I definitely have tried or wanted to just because I know that I've noticed a lot of tightness in certain areas of my body, too. So if we if we were to give you maps performance, would you follow it for us? Yeah. Oh, absolutely. You guys are like my bigger brothers. Okay. Then this is what we're going to do. And we're going to ask you to check back in with us. So we're going to set you up with maps performance. Doug, we'll hook you up for free. And then I want you to follow that program, follow it to a T and then follow back up with us afterwards with your experience. Yeah, let us know how it all went. Okay, I will. All right. Perfect. Thank you, Jacqueline. Thank you so much. Yeah, it's a tough conversation when you're talking and this is, again, super common. Yeah, it's very common. I don't want to put her on the spot maker feel bad. This is most people I would work with in the first six months I train them. They don't, they were, it's all about appearance and it's very hard to transition their state of mind or their motivation or what's driving them. But it is important to do that. You get stuck on that and you can hear when she's talking. She wants to believe that strength and confidence are drivers. But the truth is it's not. The truth is it's about how she looks. Well, yeah, because there's this fear that you start touching weights in the upper body and it's going to bulk her up, you know? I challenge that all day long. I know. I don't see it. You almost never see that. And sometimes it's just part of the process, right? I mean, if you go and you get a bunch of blood and fluid rushed in those muscles, it's going to fill up and it's going to tighten your shirts up and so it's that initial feeling and illusion that's created when you first do it and that's enough. I mean, it's the same issue that we've talked about and shared with our own issues of I used to freak out if I didn't eat and a pound went down the scale as a skinny kid. Totally. Really, I was not getting skinny. I wasn't losing muscle, but in my head I was because I got on the scale and the next day I was down two or three pounds and that was the driver on what made the decisions both nutritionally and how I exercised. It took me a long time to break through that. This is the same thing. It's just the opposite. It's her upper body and she doesn't want to get big from lifting her upper body. She just may need like this psychological shift, you know, something to kind of release her. Well, I loved your suggestion of I mean that would be perfect. And performance is great because performance has got a lot of great lower body stuff that's going to challenge her. Totally different. Right, but at the same time too, it'll also challenge her upper body. She touched on mobility so I thought that was a great recommendation. Right, and I'll say this for the vast majority of people I mean 90-something percent of people if you trained in a way that was good for your body, you trained the whole body, you were relatively lean and healthy, you would look in proportion. It's very rare for somebody to do that for a while and to still look out of proportion. It's not common. A healthy body to somebody else, when you look at them you'd say, wow, that person looks very balanced. Sometimes to ourselves though you know I'm happy you said that, Adam to her when you said, you know, do you really think you see yourself objectively. To ourselves we made these glaring, you know problems in our body, but the reality is you look pretty damn good. Right, I mean that's what I would challenge too. I bet you she starts lifting her body and she gets compliments. Oh yeah.

And we're back again at the garden we planted along the fence, utilizing newspaper instead of digging by hand, and we're gonna see some of the results of that. If you wanna take a little closer look at it, the Swiss chart here has been doing quite fine. If you, as you can see, we've been harvesting and on occasion, and it just keeps coming back and doing very nicely. The tomatoes are starting to produce ripe and fruit. There's several green tomatoes, but the red ones are slowly coming on. There's a nice red one there that will harvest. The viney crops, such as the watermelon, has started to grow onto the fence. One thing I'd like to point out with that, you might wanna keep an eye on it, or they'll actually grow into the fence, and you get this beauty of a fruit. I'm just gonna stick that back there now, but later on I'll move it out of there. Our grapes were decimated by rabbits. They ate right down to nothing, and it's coming back nicely. This is the reason for the fence that we put up here to keep the little bunnies out. The cucumbers also are starting to produce fruit. As you can see, the vine's been growing along the fence here, and it won't be long, and we'll have a nice sized cucumber there ready to harvest. Still producing plenty of flowers, and there are some little cucumbers here also that will be producing a nice sized fruit later on. Here's an onion that could get larger, but we're gonna pick it and utilize it. Just pulling it out gently. I like to brush all the dirt back off, leave it out in the garden. I even peel these off sometimes. You can compost them, of course, but I like to leave it out here. I tear this part off, throw it in there, and it's all ready to be recycled by other plants in the future. Any other little odd leaves, I'll tear off and leave out here also. And the rest is all ready for either wonderful salad or soup or anything you like. Raw, it's all good. Let's look at this bean here. After we harvested some of the onions, there was an empty space here, so we planted beans for a fall harvest, and if you notice, there are some that are just starting to come on here, and it won't be long, and there'll be beans here for a second crop where the onions once were. There's different ways of watering your plants. I prefer not to water overhead to decrease the likelihood of diseases developing on the plants. I like to use a soaker hose. There are different methods you can use also. A soaker hose has worked well for me here, and I've laid it out along the whole distance of the garden, and sometimes I've buried it, sometimes I've left it on top, and what I've done is I've turned on the water for approximately a half hour, every three, every four days, depending on if we've had rain or not, and an estimation of how much water these plants are actually getting would be about an inch and a half a week, and they've been doing quite well. One of the reasons that I don't use, for example, one of the overhead watering apparatuses that you can purchase is it seems that you tend to also water your weeds when you do that. So a soaker hose has worked well as far as being efficient in water use, and also it's an easy placement. Once it's there, it's fine. Sometimes you need to move your other watering devices around. This type of soaker hose will actually permeate water in various spots, very tiny little holes are in here, and little droplets will come out and water the area they're at. There are different ones that you can purchase. This one is done fine for me, and it does very well. How long do they last is a question that it depends. Out in an element like the outside like this, I would say they could last at least three to five years depending on how much sunlight hits them, and if you take care of them in the fall. This fall I will drain out any water that's in here, roll up the hose, clean it off, and store it inside. If you leave it set out over the winter, you can get some damage from cracking and such, and it might not even last the season for next year. If you notice the little paper remnants on the edges here, obviously have had some wear to them. They are starting to break down though. They're very friable. They fall apart real easy. Some of the roots are actually working their way through and not to destroy the plants, but they are working their way through the little bits here. And if you wanna take a look at what's underneath, this is the grass that was there. You can't even tell there was grass there. I pulled some of these that are just coming in from the side here, but right here if you look at, you can't even tell that we had lawn here before. It has turned into just nice friable soil underneath this newspaper. A lot of time is saved not digging in this lawn.

Unizor - Matrices - Determinant of 3x3 Matrix - Properties
|
As was shown in the introductory, the following formula represents a determinant for a 3x3 matrix.
a11·a22·a33 + a21·a13·a32 + a12·a23·a31 −
− a13·a22·a31 − a21·a12·a33 − a11·a23·a32
Notice interesting properties of this formula. Each element of a matrix occurs twice in it, once in the positive member and once in a negative. Each member of a sum combines elements from different rows and different columns. Each member of a sum combines three elements of a matrix that either lie on a diagonal (main diagonal from top left corner of a matrix to a bottom right with a plus sign, the other diagonal from top right corner to bottom left - with a minus) or form a triangle in the matrix with one side parallel to the main diagonal (with a plus) or the other diagonal (with a minus).
Similarly to properties of a determinant of 2x2 matrices, a determinant of 3x3 matrices has the following basic properties.
1. If a 3x3 matrix has at least one row or one column containing all zeros (there are 3 rows and 3 columns, so we have 9 different conditions, each listing 3 elements belonging to the same row or the same column equal to zero) then its determinant equals to zero.
Indeed, for instance, the second column contains only zero elements, that is a12= 0, a22= 0 and a32= 0. Then, substituting these values into a formula for det(A), we obtain its value equal to zero.
Similarly, other cases result in exactly the same result. It would be a nice exercise to check it for all 9 cases of rows and columns.
2. If all elements of one row (or one column) of a 3x3 matrix are multiplied by some factor, the determinant will also change its value by the same factor.
Plain substitution of K·aij instead of aij into a formula for a determinant where either i is fixed on any value from 1 to 3 and j takes values 1, 2 and 3 or j is fixed on any value from 1 to 3 and i takes values 1, 2 and 3 leads to this property.
3. If one row (or one column) of a 3x3 matrix can be represented as a linear combination of two other rows (or columns) then the determinant of this matrix equals to zero. There are six different cases of such dependency for each of three rows and each of three columns, we will consider only one.
Assume that the second column equals to a linear combination of the first and the third column:
a12 = M·a11 + N·a13
a22 = M·a21 + N·a23
a32 = M·a31 + N·a33
Substituting these three values for elements of the second row into a formula for a determinant produces the following:
det(A) = a11·(M·a21+N·a23)·a33 + a21·a13·(M·a31+N·a33) +
+ a31·(M·a11+N·a13)·a23 − a11·a23·(M·a31+N·a33) −
- a21·(M·a11+N·a13)·a33 − a31·a13·(M·a21+N·a23)
Opening all parenthesis results in cancellation of all members of a sum, so the result is zero. Similarly trivial is any other case of linear dependency of one row or column from the other two. We recommend to check it as a self-study lesson.
Determinants have many other interesting properties, we will introduce them as problems later on.

Hi, I'm Zor. Welcome to Unizor Education. Previous lecture was about determinants for 3x3 methods. So, basically, we started with a system of equations like this. Three linear equations with three variables, x1, x2, and x3. So, this is the system of three linear equations with three variables. And we were talking about condition on coefficients a with different indices. The first index is a column and as a row and the second index is a column. So, we were talking about condition on indices which assure us that the system has a unique solution. Or, if you wish, you can actually interpret this system as a transformation of coordinates from x-coordinates to y-coordinates in the 3D, in the three-dimensional space. And, basically, the condition is when this particular transformation can be reversed. For instance, the rotation can be reversed but projection cannot. Okay, so, the condition which we were talking about is basically in the formula which combines all these coefficients into an expression which is called determinant. So, let me just repeat what this particular determinant is. A is a matrix of coefficients. So, the matrix is basically 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 3-1, 3-3, 3-2, and 3-3. So, this is the matrix we were talking about. And determinant of this matrix is defined as a relatively long expression which I'm going to write right now. But it's very easy to remember it. It has positive and negative members. Positive members are main diagonal, which is a-1-1, a-2-2, a-3-3. And two triangles which have a short side parallel to the main diagonal. This one and this one. So, it's a-1-2, a-2-3, a-3-1. And this one, a-1-3, a-2-1, and a-3-2. And then, 3-negative with alternate diagonal which is a-1-3, a-2-2, a-3-1. And again, triangles which have the short side parallel. So, this is the main diagonal. So, we're talking about this triangle and this triangle. So, it would be minus a-1-1, a-2-3, a-3-2, and minus a-1-2. A-2-1, a-3-3. So, that's the formula. Now, it looks cumbersome and, well, and it is. But it has really wonderful properties. First of all, as I was saying, equality of this particular expression to zero means that the system does not have a unique solution. The system of linear equations or the transformation is not reversible. You cannot find x from y. Basically, it's exactly the same thing as the system not having a unique solution. So, that property by itself is extremely interesting. We saw that there were such properties with 2 by 2 matrix. And this is an expression for 3 by 3 matrix. So, for any square matrix, actually, we have this type of expression, the determinant, which basically determines whether the system with these coefficients does or does not have a unique solution. But there are some other properties and some simple properties I will explain in this particular lecture. So, the property number one, if you will just look at this particular formula, you will see that each element of the matrix participates in this formula. I mean, anyone, like A23. Well, you'll find A23. Now, it also participates exactly twice. Once with a member with a positive sign and once with a member with a negative sign. I was talking about A23, for instance, and any other element. Let's say A12, here is the minus and here is the plus. No more A12 in the formula. So, each element of the, each coefficient in this system participates exactly twice. One with a positive member of the sum and one with a negative. So, that's number one property. Now, what's also interesting is that in each member of this sum, we have, each member contains the product of three elements of the matrix, right? What's interesting is that all these three elements in each member of the sum always belong to different rows and different columns. You see, the rows, for instance, this element. Rows are the first row, the second row, the third row. Columns, the first column, the third column, the second column. So, it's always different rows and different columns. That's why we are mixing together and nicely mixing together basically all these coefficients in this formula. So, the magic doesn't really stop here. There is some other interesting property. For instance, I was already talking about this geometrical kind of memorization technique which you can use if you want to remember this formula. It's really very easy. The main diagonal and a couple of triangles with a short side parallel to the main diagonal are with pluses and the alternate diagonal and a couple of triangles with a short side parallel to it was a negative sign. So, that's another thing. And what else? Now, let's think about first from the perspective of the system of the equations. Now, you understand that if, for instance, let's go back to the equation. So, it's not Y, it's not a transformation of coordinates, but this is a system of equations, B1, B2, B3. Now, you understand that if my row of the coefficients, for instance this one, is completely equal to zero, then if the B1 as well is equal to zero, then I don't really have any equation here because obviously it's an identity zero on the left and if all the coefficients are equal to zero, I have zero on the right regardless of x1, x2, x3, which means that it's as if I don't have the first equation at all and I have only two equations with three variables, which obviously is not a good thing to have. It's most likely has the infinite number of solutions or no solutions at all. In any case, you cannot expect a unique solution from a system of two equations with three variables. Now, the same thing actually happens if any particular column is equal to zero. For instance, this column is equal to zero. Then we don't have x2 at all. So, what do we have now? We have three equations with two variables, x1 and x3. Nothing depends on x2 basically, right? So, either again, system doesn't have any solutions or it has an infinite number of solutions, but in any case, it's not a good idea. It's not a good system which we would like to consider. So, it looks like if any row or any column is equal to zero, then this system is no good. Now, does our determinant really gives us exactly the same answer? Well, let's just consider. For instance, I would like to check if this particular column is equal to zero. What happens with the determinant? 1, 2, 2, 2 and 3, 2 are all equal to zero. What happens with this one? This is zero because it's 2, 2. This is zero because there is a 1, 2. This is zero because there is a 3, 2. This is zero because 2, 2. This is zero because there is an a, 3, 2, which is equal to zero. And this one has 1, 2. So, all elements are equal to zero, so the whole sum is equal to zero. So, that's extremely important quality of the determinant if it's, well, basically it reflects the bad property of the system itself. The system is not good if one column is equal to zero of the coefficients and the determinant is equal to zero. It's really a good signification that the system is not good. Now, what are the properties? Well, for instance, I am increasing one particular row of the coefficients by some factor, k, let's say. What happens if I will increase these three numbers in this matrix by the same factor k? Well, obviously, the whole determinant also will be multiplied by this y because these coefficients are participating in every member here. Like, for instance, what if I will increase this second row, right? So, a22 is increasing and these two are not. So, this will be multiplied by the same factor k. Now, in this case, I have 23 also from the second row. In this case, I have 21 from the second row, etc. All members of this sum have exactly one element of the second row and that's why the whole expression will be increased by the same factor. So, if you increase by some factor a row or a column, the same thing actually you can check it, then the determinant will also be increased. Now, this might not be very interesting property, but here is the really interesting property. Again, let's go back and consider the system of our equations. Now, consider for a moment that one of these equations is actually a combination of two others. Let's say if you will multiply this by m and this by n and add them together you will get exactly the first equation, just as an example. Well, what does it mean? It actually means that we have only two real equations. This equation doesn't bring us anything new if it's a linear combination of these two. So, we have two equations with three variables which is definitely the system which is not uniquely solvable, right? So, again, my question is, does the determinant reflect this particular property? So, what if two rows or actually two columns as well of the matrix are in such a relationship to the third one that we can obtain the third one from the first two by their linear combination? Would the determinant be equal to zero in this case? Because we're always telling that the determinant equals to zero signifies that the system is not good, right? So, this is a perfect example of the system which is not good. And let's check out if determinant really reflects this particular quality of the system. Well, in my example which I'm using in the notes for this lecture, I think I'm putting the second column to be a combination of the first and the third. Just as an example, it doesn't really matter which is which, it's exactly the same thing. So, that's what probably I will try to do. So, what if my matrix is such that the first, the second column is a linear combination of the first and the third? Which means that a12 is equal to m times a11 plus m times a13, a22, the second coefficient, exactly the same mix of the first and the third. And this last element in this column is equal to the same linear combination. So, what if I have this particular condition? My question is, would my determinant be equal to zero in this particular case? Just to make sure the determinant really, the equality of the determinant to zero reflects the property of the system to have a unique solution. Well, obviously, we all expect this to be true, so let's just try to prove it. So, I will just substitute instead of these values in my formula these values and let's see what happens, right? So, which should I substitute? I'm substituting this one, a22, a12 and a32 and a22 and a32 and a12. So, these must be substituted with these values. Well, let's just do it. Again, it's a little bit tedious and I already used this particular example in Winter Olympics when people are skiing for 50 kilometers. That's not fun, neither. That's really tiresome and tedious and really checks your stamina. So, let's check my stamina here. All right, so it's a11. Now, instead of this, I have to substitute it with this, right? So, an a33 is remaining and then I have m, a21 plus m, a23, right? So, instead of 22, 11 and 33 remains, but instead of 22, I substituted this. All right, fine, plus. Now, 23 and 31 remain as this and now I have m. Now, 12 is this. So, it's m, a11 plus m, a13 plus. Here, I have to substitute 32. So, a13 and a21 remain as this and instead of 32, I will change it to this one. Okay, now this one, that's actually minus. We've already switched to minus. So, 13 and 31 and m, so it's 22. It's this one, a21 plus m, a23 minus. This one, I have to substitute 32. So, it's 11, 23, m, a31 plus m, a33, right? And the last one, 21 and 33 remain the same and here I have m, a11 plus m, a13. All right, so that's my formula. Now, is it equal to zero? Well, let's just, you know, analyze it. It should. All right, 11, 33 and 21 was a plus sign. 11, 21 and 33 and m was a minus sign, right? So, these are out. These are canceling out. Now, m, a23, so 11, 23 and 33. 11, 23 and 33 was a plus and this is with a minus. So, this goes out. So, this whole thing is out now. Next, 11, 23, 31. 11, 23, 31 with a minus sign. So, this goes out. Now, this whole member now is out, right? And 13, 31 and 23. So, this one, I think, 13, 13, 31, 31 and 23, 23 and plus and minus. This goes with this one. Now, this completely out. Now, this one, 13, 21 and 31. 13, 21 and 31. This goes out. 13 to 133. 13 to 133, this goes out. So, this is completely out and this is completely out. Now, this was already out. That's it. All cancel out. So, as you see, if we have one particular column of the matrix, which, if it can be expressed as a linear combination of two other columns, then the determinant is equal to zero. And again, from other considerations, if you consider just a system of equations and you have the same thing, you know that this is not good. So, basically, it corresponds. So, again, my point is that the determinant is such a nice thing about matrix that it really determines the whole behavior of the system of equations with this matrix as a system of coefficients or transformation of coordinates. So, these properties are extremely important, especially the last one, linear combination of column with another set of columns. That is actually extremely important. So, whenever you have a system of equations, like three equations with three variables, linear equations, you can always, without basically doing any kind of calculations, seeking solutions, et cetera, et cetera, you can always determine whether the system has a unique solution or not by comparing its determinant, the determinant of the coefficients with zero. So, one formula with all these coefficients combined together can give you the result of this particular dilemma. Now, what's interesting is that these determinants not only answer the question whether the system has a solution or not, they also help you to find this particular solution. But this is a subject of the next lecture. So, thanks very much for today. Don't forget that notes for this lecture are on Unisor.com, and I certainly recommend you to read again to go through these notes and to refresh the material. Now, if you sign in to the website, you can also take exams, which is, I believe, very, very important. But obviously, you can browse through any educational material without registering or anything like this. And, by the way, registration is free. All right, that's it for today. Thanks very much and good luck.

are doing things with the cloud, everything is in the cloud, everything is processing inside the cloud. So, let's see what type of clouds we have. So, we have three types of clouds. The public cloud, the private cloud and the hybrid cloud. So, what is a private cloud? So, let's just say for example, you are a government organization, you want higher security, you don't want public intervention in your network, you'll go with the private clouds. For example, AWS, VPS, VPC, virtual private cloud or VMware on premise, right? That's called a private cloud. Then we have public clouds. Public clouds are, for example, let's just say you are a food vendor and you want maximum engagement from the world. So, you'll go out with the public cloud, but it's not as secure as the private cloud. So, I ask you this, is it too much to ask for both? Like we can have the privacy and security of a private cloud and the engagement of public cloud. So, let's discuss about the hybrid cloud platform from Red Hat, which is OpenShift 4. So, what is OpenShift 4? OpenShift is the enterprise Kubernetes offering from Red Hat. Hello. So, at the base, we have Red Hat Enterprise Linux and REL CoreOS. On top of that, we have Kubernetes installed on it. Then we have our automated operation and cluster services, application services, as well as developer services. Now, let's see the architecture. So, this time on OpenShift 4, we are using immutable operating system CoreOS. Now, what is immutable and why we are using it? We'll see that in a moment. Then we have our worker nodes, that too we have on Red Hat, as well as you can also use REL machines. The load balancers, routing, logging and monitoring, everything is there. Now, the best part about OpenShift 4 is the easy installation method. All you need to do is run that command, which you can see up top there, dot slash open shift, install create cluster. Now, we have used Terraform in this version of OpenShift. Terraform, just like Kubernetes, is an orchestration tool. Now, we also discussed yesterday what orchestration is. Orchestration is the meaning, which means that your entire infrastructure will be taken care of. So, you just need to run this simple script and Terraform will not only select the nodes on AWS, but also install OpenShift along with it. Now, let's talk a little bit about CoreOS. What is CoreOS? So, you must be using Windows or REL, Ubuntu, CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Similarly, there's one more operating system, CoreOS. Now, CoreOS is specifically designed to use with containers. So, if you are in a containerized environment and you want the optimum utilization of your resources to deploy your applications, you can go along with CoreOS. We'll see that in a moment on my terminal. Now, when I say immutable, what does that mean? Immutable means that you don't get to be root on your system. Now, this is a good thing because many a times people mistakenly deletes your slash ETC or slash VAR or the entire slash folder, or they run commands which they are not supposed to run. On CoreOS, you don't get to run those commands. If you make a human error because you are not root, you won't be able to delete something by mistake. Apart from that, we are using Cryo and Podman as the latest container run times because Docker had a couple of vulnerabilities earlier. With Podman, you are able to run your containers rootless, which was not present earlier. Now, let's talk a little bit about some of the features of OpenShift 4. One of the top features that we are introducing this time is Istio service mesh. Now, what is a service mesh? So, let's take an example of Grab. How many of you use Grab here? So, most of us know about Grab or Uber. When you open your application on your phone, there is a container running in the background, which takes care of the part which uses the GPS. Then, when you select, when you click the button, Grab this Grab, there is another container running inside a pod. So, there are multiple microservices running and every microservice takes care of a different part of that application. When these microservices talk to each other, this communication becomes really complex and previously it needed some human intervention in order to take care of it. But with Istio, we have introduced a concept of Sidecar. So, inside that container where your microservice is running, you start another container which can act as a proxy. So, we have three components here, Pilot, Gale and Citadel. Citadel takes care of your security. Gale has the configuration data in it and Pilot has the configuration data which goes to the proxies. Now, with the help of this mixer here, your entire microservice communication which was previously pretty complex to handle is taken care by Istio alone. Now, let's talk about another one of the very highly talked about and requested features in OpenShift 4, which are the operators. Now, when I talk about automation, anything which is not automated is slowing you down, right, guys? When we speak of pods and microservices, many are times a lot of human intervention is again needed and required. Let's say, for example, you need to install new database like CouchDB, but you don't know anything about it, right? You don't know where the configuration files are, you don't know how to upgrade it. So, what you can do, you can simply install an operator. Now, this operator is nothing but an application-specific controller that extends the Kubernetes API to create, configure, and manage instances of complex, stateful application on behalf of the Kubernetes user. So, things like upgradation, updation, configuration management is taken care by the operator and you don't need to do that. Now, because OpenShift 4 is launched, we are continuously upgrading the product and with OpenShift 4.2, we are introducing disconnected and air-gapped installation, which was again requested by our customers. We have introduced the special resource operator for our GPU and for our developers, we have introduced code-ready containers. Service match will be fully supported. When it comes to installation, you can use all these methods. So, if you want to do a full stack automation or if you already have a pre-existing hardware, you can install OpenShift 4 on your bare metal nodes and you can go with the hosted OpenShift offerings like Azure Red Hat OpenShift and OpenShift Dedicated. So, we have partnered up with some of the best and the biggest cloud vendors out there because I'm talking about hybrid cloud. Hybrid cloud has to be installed on top of another cloud or on top of another bare metal infrastructure. So, if you have AWS as your Google Cloud bare metal VMware, you can simply go ahead and start up your cluster with just a single line of command. So, let's just take a look at the improved console and operator. Okay, so this is the latest console and this is running right now. I just took the access to it. This is our operator hub, the operator hub which I previously mentioned, right? So, let's see if we can install an operator here. It's taking a little bit of time. So, this is the 4.1 version and 4.2 will be out, I think, in the next quarter or this one. I also have my, yes, okay. So, this is the terminal for your core OS. Let's see the version. So, as you can see, this is the Red Hat Enterprise Linux core OS released 4.1. So, all my nodes right now are on core OS only. So, if I run OCGet nodes, okay. So, I have one master and two worker nodes and all these worker nodes are running on core OS. Let's go back to our web console. Yeah. So, these are the operators which comes in the operator catalog and if you want to create your own operator, you can do that with the operator SDK. So, let's see, let's take a look at the couch based operator. All you need to do is just click on install and your operator will be installed here. So, it's that easy to do it. Just click on subscribe. So, this is just a sample which I'm showing. Okay. So, it's launched and this is the YAML configuration for your operator. If you need to make some changes there, you can do it from here and then save it. It'll simply just start running. All right. So, I'll hand out the mic to my peer, Ruthvik, and he'll speak on the topics like Quay and monitoring. Thank you. Thanks, Ushil. Hello, everyone. Good morning. Hope you're having a good time here. So, we talked a lot about hybrid cloud, private cloud, public cloud, then microservices. But in the end, all these things are going to end up with containers, right? So, you need a container registry which will store your containers in a secure way. Your registry needs to be robust. You need 24 by 7 enterprise level support in case you face any issue. So, you need features like that, right? So, how many of you are aware of Docker registries like any public, private? Have you seen Docker hub like that? So, similarly, not similarly, but Docker hub is like a public registry, right? But QAV3, with QA, we are providing a private registry which is secure and robust, as I mentioned. So, this is the high level architecture of QAV3. So, let's see it in a flow. If a developer or admin push image into your private registry, it gets stored, right? So, while storing, a postage database is used to store its metadata, metadata as in your image tags and image revisions. Then comes the clear service. So, clear is responsible to store and scan your containers in a secure way. So, it does scan each and every layer of your container and suggests us if there are any vulnerabilities present inside that. It also has its own vulnerability database and it keeps updating itself. So, we do not have to worry about the new vulnerabilities available out there. It will automatically detect it and fix it. Then there is Redis in-memory key value show, which is responsible to like monitor your live builder logs as well as runtime logs. So, these are the features that are going to come in recent version of QAV3. So, it supports multiple architecture manifests, such as IoT-based images, Windows containers and ARM-based containers, etc. Then we are going to introduce new repository mirror functionality. So, what does that mean? So, let's say you have an external repository configured somewhere, not in your premise, but you configure, you need to configure another instance of your registry on your premise. So, you do not need to again go back and configure and code all those things. You just can mirror your existing repository, which is present externally. Then, as we have discussed the importance of operator, right? It helps us in day to task, such as patch management, upgrade and maintenance like that. So, we are going to introduce QAV setup operator, which will take care of your whole registry operations. Then, crunchy data operator, which will be managing your Postgres database. So, you will be like on a safer side. So, none of the users who are supposed to work on Postgres database, they are not able to access or touch its configuration because it's being managed by the operator. Then, with QAV 3, you can have, you can configure time machines. So, what does that mean? So, let's say if you or your developer accidentally removes any image or tags of it, you can still retrieve that using time machine. You can achieve availability just to avoid single point of failure. Then, metrics. So, when we deploy registries on large scale, it's important to understand its resource utilization and have better judgment how much resources it requires in future. So, for that, it supports metrics which are consumable like by monitoring systems like Prometheus, etc. Then, it can scan containers to provide security as we discuss using clear service. Then, you can use robot accounts. So, using robot accounts, you can simply provide a granular access to your end users as well as your developer. So, it's nothing but access control mechanism system. Then, let's talk about CI CD. So, how many of you are working with CI CD operations? Jenkins, have you heard of that? So, it's just... So, there was a traditional Jenkins server which we used to run builder jobs in streamline. Like, you can deploy Jenkins server on your premise and you can have Jenkins slave on the other side which will take care of your build operations. So, you might want to deploy or build your application on multiple stages such as build, UAT, production, etc. So, at that time, we need Jenkins server to automate all these tasks. But, there was a challenge with traditional Jenkins such that it used to consume resources which are not required at some point and it came in the picture when there was no cloud native workloads present. So, with cloud native workloads and containerized systems, we're going to introduce new CI CD pipelines which is Tecton. So, Tecton does not require any traditional CI like server. It just need your Kubernetes controller which is known as pipeline controller. It doesn't require any additional resources or any additional infrastructure. So, it gives you standard CI CD pipeline definition. It can build images with Kubernetes tools such as S2I, Builder, Buildpacks, etc. It can run on hybrid cloud or multi-cloud. It can easily extend and integrate with existing tools and we can even scale our pipelines on demands. So, that's the features and this is the high-level architecture or flow of the pipelines. So, in the task, we're just going to define what containers need to do. For example, mounting a volume on a host. Then, pipeline would read and store those tasks and pipeline run will execute the pipeline. So, in your pipeline resources, you are providing input as a GitHub source code and it will produce the output as a Docker image. So, these are the points with tecton. Then, let's see what monitoring is. So, how many of you are aware of Prometheus? Right? So, are you using Prometheus on production? Yeah, that's nice. So, when we think of hybrid cloud or any private cloud, so monitoring is important, right? We need to, we need a solution which not just read the matrix, but it would understand your matrix and scale your workloads accordingly. So, let's say if you plan a go live service on weekend which is expecting a huge traffic and you are not aware how much resources it's gonna consume. So, in that case, you need an end-to-end monitoring system which will take care of your resources as well as containerized workloads. So, in that case, Prometheus has proven a significant results. So, Prometheus originally designed by Sound Cloud in 2012. Later, it got adopted by CNCF community and they have made it open source. Since then, it has become very robust. Many people are started using Prometheus for their production monitoring. So, the advantage is that it gives you end-to-end monitoring in such way. It stores the matrix. It analyzes it. It gives alert based on your rule configuration. And you can, in fact, add Graphon and dashboard to perform more analytics and have better view of your clusters. So, let's see the features. So, it gives you multi-dimensional data model with time series data identified by matrix name and key value pairs. It has Promql which is flexible and very powerful language to leverage that dimensionality. No reliance on distributed storage. Only single server nodes are autonomous. Then, it gives time series collection happens via pull model over STTP. So, STTP is like lightweight protocol. So, using that, there are no delays while pulling your matrix from a huge clusters. So, targets are discovered via service discovery or static configuration. So, if you're using Kubernetes, you might be aware of what service discovery is. So, based on your labels, Prometheus detects the endpoints and the targets which is going to monitor. Then, this is the high-level architecture which we use in OpenShift. So, this is kind of optimized architecture, I would say. So, as we have seen importance of operators, so we have introduced Prometheus operator which will take care of your main Prometheus server as well as your alert manager. And there will be cluster monitoring operator on top of all these components which ensures that each and every component of your monitoring system is up and ready and updated, up to date. Then, we have Grafana for advanced visualization of your cluster. Then, node exporter which will pull matrix of each and every node present in your cluster. Kupset matrix. It's responsible to convert Kubernetes object matrix into Prometheus consumable matrix. Then, Prometheus adapter. So, this is one of the advantage of Prometheus which we're going to introduce in 4.2. So, using Prometheus adapter, you can scale the workload not only based on your CPU and memory utilization, but you can configure custom resource auto-scaling using Prometheus adapter. So, what I mean by custom matrix auto-scaling is let's say I want to auto-scale my workloads based on the number of API requests is getting or based on the HTTP requests it's getting. So, I would be able to auto-scale my workload based on such custom matrix as well. So, before that it was not possible. Yeah, that's the overview. So, let's have a quick demo. So, I will show you how it look like. So, I'm just gonna click on monitoring then dashboard. So, I'll be getting Grafana dashboard. So, let's say I want to monitor my HCD cluster and the read-write operations it's consuming at this moment. So, I will choose HCD monitoring. So, I can see there is only one server, one HCD server, then the RPC rich, dissing duration, memory consumed by it, then client traffic, etc. Yeah, so that's about monitoring systems. Now, I would let you know how to get started. If you are newbie and you are interested in OpenShift, so there is one cool website called learn.openshift.com. It is free. You just need to have credentials to log in into that and you can find playgrounds like this. Let's say I want to learn operators. I'll just click on start. Start the course. So, I'll be getting all these playgrounds here. I can even learn the fundamentals and multiple operators like HCD, Ansible. So, if you want to try OpenShift 4 on your premise or on any cloud provider which we have suggested earlier, so you can just try to access try.openshift.com and you just need to click here get started. So, it will ask you for the credentials or maybe not. So, yes, you can see you can install OpenShift on AWS, bare metal, Azure, VMware, Google Cloud, even an OpenStack and your own laptop. Yeah, that's it from our side. Thank you. Any more questions? Yeah, so let me just add something to your comment. You are correct when you say that OpenShift, yes, it is a cloud but unlike your Azure or AWS, so when we talk about Azure or AWS, we say that they are IAAS like infrastructure as a service, right? And OpenShift is a P AAS platform as a service. So, on OpenShift what you can do is you can take your Azure instances and then you can install OpenShift on top of Azure or on top of AWS or on top of VMware. Then you'll have a cloud on top of another cloud. So, that's why it's called a hybrid cloud. Okay, yeah, so you mean to say that like if you are in Thailand and your users may be in Australia, right? And so you'll have to install that in a location where it's accessible to both the countries and you get the minimum ping, right? You less latency. Yeah, I understand. Yeah, so yes, you can do that. See, if you're using AWS or Azure, so you can install your clusters in the specific regions and specific availability zones that you require. And then according to that AWS and Azure, they both provide very good security. So that's why you can, that's why, see, this is the reason why the hybrid clouds are picking up so much heat today. Because you are using a private offering from AWS and also you have your public, you know, engagement. So you will have that security that you have. But if I say that is it is hybrid cloud specifically for only for government organizations which are using like really, really sensitive data. So no, for that you have other options, right? So hybrid cloud has its own market, right? It has its own specific set of applications which you can deploy. So I hope that answers your question. Thank you. Does anyone else have any question how to get started or any confusions or anything? Okay then, thank you very much for attending our session. Thank you.

Tired of long-term commitment plans? Then Appalachian Wireless has the new plans for you! No credit checks, no contracts, and most of the features of PostPaid is ForwardPaid. The simpler way to do wireless on the region's premier cellular provider. And it starts as low as $19.99 a month with unlimited talk and text. We are you. We are Appalachian Wireless. The annual Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Walk was held in downtown Williamson on Thursday, April 13th in observance of Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Month. So for several years we have been hosting this walk as a way to raise awareness locally about the month and what it stands for. The Head Start has been gracious through Coldfield Cat to allow their children to come be with us, which to me is perfect because it symbolizes what this month is all about. They are our greatest and most precious resource, and we need to do everything we can to raise awareness around how to protect those children. The walk was hosted by Mingo County Partners in Prevention and Mingo County Family Resource Network. Many children, parents and community members turned out to walk through the streets with many people wearing blue and sporting pinwheels for the occasion. Unfortunately, it is quite often not until it's an awareness month that we bring awareness to an issue. And so for me, with the children and the community coming together, it has a big statement saying, wow, this is it. But what I want to encourage people to do is not let this be it. You know, it's your turn to make a difference with the slogan for Child Abuse Prevention Month years ago. If you notice the pinwheels, which is a positive message, pinwheels are spinning, they're turning. It's something that is significant and symbolizes turning. Our wheels are turning. What can we do to make a difference in our community? The Child Abuse Prevention Awareness Walk provided everyone the opportunity to show support and bring attention to Child Abuse Prevention not only for the month of April, but for every month in the year. For Mountain Top News, I'm Kelsey Dean.

Though the BSU men's hockey team dropped their first conference game of the season last weekend, they still sit in first place eight points up over Michigan Tech. Tonight the Beavers welcome Lake Superior State and the highest scoring offense in the WCHA for a two game set. The scoreless just under three minutes into the second until Kyle Baumann fires home the wrist shot from the top of the slot. Beavers take the 1-0 lead. Just under six minutes later the Lakers would strike back after making two inatial saves. JT Hankey beats Michael Bitzer and we are tied at one. Stay that way through two over times and then into a sudden death shootout where Miles Fitzgerald delivers the game winner. This one officially ends in a tie but BSU wins in a shootout earning the extra point on the night.

Hello and welcome to the session that is because the following problem today give examples of two function f such that from n to z and g from z to z such that g of f is injective but g is not injective. Now let us write the solution. Let us consider x is equal to x and g of x is equal to mod of x. Now let us take g of x. g of x is equal to mod of x which is equal to x if x is greater than equal to 0 and minus x if x is greater than 0. Therefore, g of x is not 1 1 since g of 1 is equal to g of minus 1 is equal to 1 but 1 is not equal to minus 1. Now let us find g of f of x which is equal to g of f of x which is equal to g of x because f of x is equal to x and g of x is equal to mod of x. Hence g of f of x is equal to mod of x. Now domain of g of f is n that is set of natural numbers which is given to us for every natural number a mod of a is equal to a that is g of f has a unique image. Therefore, g of f is 1 1 and hence g of f is injective. Hence g of f is injective and since g of x is not 1 1 therefore, g is not injective. Thank you for the problem. Bye and have a nice day.

Sixth ECB biennial conference on “Fiscal Policy and EMU Governance” - Session 4
|
The European Central Bank organised its sixth biennial conference on Fiscal Policy and EMU Governance, which took place in Frankfurt on 18-19 December 2023.
In view of the Covid-19 crisis, the war in Ukraine and its economic consequences, and the current situation of high inflation, the role of fiscal policy for stabilisation and its effects on inflation are matters of interest for both academics and policymakers. The aim of this conference is to explore these issues, including the interaction of fiscal and monetary policy, fiscal policy implications of monetary policy normalisation, and risk-sharing arrangements and private/public balance sheet developments in monetary unions.

Let's go for the last session of the conference, the fourth session, which deals with monetary fiscal interactions. In the context of a monetary union, we have two very interesting contributions here. So the first one is going to be presented by Hushin B, from the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, who is going to present the paper asset purchases in a monetary union with default and liquidity risks, which is joined work with Andrew Forester and Nora Trump. So Hushin, the floor is yours, you have 25 minutes. Great, thank you so much for having the paper in this wonderful conference. So this paper is, as I said, joined with Andrew and Nora, and we talk about asset purchase in the monetary union model with both default and the liquidity risk. So usual disclaimer applied here. So this paper is motivated very much by the policy discussions and the policy actions taken at ECB. As the members of the executive board have been discussing, the financial market fragmentation can impale the transmission mechanism of monetary policy. And this is particularly relevant for the euro area, when you have different countries, have different fundamentals and different institutions. So ECB has asset purchase programs to address the market fragmentation driven by different type of risk, default risk, liquidity risk, for instance, OMT rolled out during the height of the debt crisis, and TPI rolled out last year as the ECB raised interest rate. So the question we are going to focus in this paper is specifically how do default risk, when it interacts with the liquidity risk, impact the economy, and how used for asset purchase to counter them. So to answer that question, we're going to build a two-country monetary union model features both type of risk. And we're going to specifically look at one type of transmission at the moment is that when you have deteriorations in the macro fundamentals, that's going to drive up the default risk, and then that can speed over to have a liquidity risk through the financial market conditions. So what do we find is that through the lens of this model, we find that both type of risk can dampen the economic condition following the increase in government debt. But the magnifying effect from the liquidity risk is far more consequential, and therefore making the asset purchase market more effective in the presence of a liquidity risk. So let me dive into details with the model. It's a two-country model. In the home country, the government says tax and government expenditures, and they can issue debt. Now there is default risk in the sense that the government could default. And the default probability, so you can think about there is two regions, default or no default. And then the default probability follows the indulgence regime switching process here in the sense that the default probability is not exogenous. It depends on the state of the economy, depends on the debt of GDP ratio. The higher the debt is, the higher the likelihood of default is. And then there is financial intermediary, which will follow the Gutter and Karate setup. The household will deposit at the banks, and then the financial intermediaries will collect the deposit to buy the debt from home government as well as the firms. There is a liquidity risk in these channels that the tightness of the credit constraint can vary with default probability. I'm going to explain more as I dive into the details. At the moment, the foreign country is abstract from the segmented financial market. So there is no financial intermediaries as a standard model that the household will directly invest in the private firms and also directly hold the government bound. There is a union-wide monetary policy. There is Taylor rule. And the monetary policy could also purchase the government bound. And it's going to follow some type of rule as the financial conditions tightened that's going to trigger the asset purchase in this framework. So this is another way to visualize how the model looks at the moment. In the home countries, you have a household, flow the deposit to the banks, and the banks will purchase private debt as well as public debt. In the foreign sectors, it's simpler, and the household directly invests and also hold the government bound. There is capital flow between the two countries. So there is a common deposit rate in this monetary union. Now, let me start with the home government. The government collected tax, lump sum tax, as well as distortion tax, income tax, and the consumption tax to finance government spending. They also issued long-term government bound. So the Kappa B here is a decay. You can think about this coupon that's decaying over time to capture is a long-term government debt. And here we are going to assume that lump sum tax is going to respond to the change of the government debt. This is a simplified assumption that just to say we're going to allow the least distortion tax to respond to the debt dynamics. We could use the similar rules, distortion tax, it does not change the result much. Importantly, the government can default on the bonds and by taking a haircut. So there are two regimes here. They can default, take a haircut of a delta B or no default. And the default probability follows here is we take a logistic function and you can think of some kind of function form of the debt-over-GDP ratio and as well as macro conditions of the economy. So let me visualize that here. So the blue line shows in the baseline case as debt-over-GDP ratio goes up, the default probability goes up. And to the red line means that the deterioration of the macro fundamentals could shift your default probabilities. Therefore, the same level of debt that in more deterioration, the macro fundamentals could face higher default probabilities. So we don't explicitly model the decisions of when they default, but you can interpret this. The similar dynamics could arise in the model that you take those strategic decisions on board. This is simply to capture that the default probability is not exogenous. It depends on the fundamentals in some kind of systematic way. And the banks who hold those bonds understand that. And for other firms here, the wholesale firms, they issue a long term private bond to finance private investment. So this is not the friction in the model is that in a standard model, the household would be directly invest in the firms. Here, the firms have to issue a share of their, have to issue bond, which is on the right-hand side here, showing the net flow of long-term bond. Gonna have to issue this bond to finance eta i share of the investment. And they use the investment, the capital as well as the label to produce. That's standard. And we also have a home investment producer here. They assemble investment with the adjustment cost. And in the simulation, I'm gonna use that in the sense, if you consider there is a demand shock, how that demand shock could shift. Characterize that as a deterioration in the macro fundamentals, how that's gonna give rise to the default probability. The household here, they deposit in the domestic financial intermediaries. They also hold the one-period cross-region asset so that you have a union-wide deposit rate that is the same across two countries. And then we have the financial intermediaries. So first, they face a balance sheet constraint in the sense that at every period they're gonna collect the deposit, DT, from the household. And then they're gonna purchase government and private debt, BT and FT. And at their market value. And then they can also accumulate the net worth. So the net worth is gonna depend on the realized return on holding those assets. So when the government is gonna default and take a haircut, that's gonna reflect in the net worth of the bank. And that's gonna have implication for the bank dynamics here. And then they face a maximize problem here that they're gonna maximize the expected net worth throughout their lifetime. And if there is no survival rate, then what's gonna happen is that they're gonna accumulate enough net worth, they don't need to rely on the deposit. So we follow the literature that, assuming those firms, those banks, have a survival rate of a sigma. And therefore, with a one-minute sigma, they may exit from the banking sector and take the net worth with them. And we also assume there is an incentive constraint here, in the sense that the banks can divert a e to the v share of the asset. Therefore, that gives rise to the financial frictions here in those models. But because they can divert a share of the asset, so they have an incentive constraint, the value has to be higher than whatever the asset they can divert, otherwise the household will not deposit at the banks. And here we are gonna have introduced a liquidity channel. So the e to the v is a share of the asset they can divert. It's gonna vary with the default risk. And the higher the default risk, the e to the v is gonna go up. It's the highest share of the asset they're gonna divert. The binding constraint is becoming small binding. So the intuition here is that if you think of extreme case, that the incentive constraint is only occasionally binding. What's gonna happen is that when you expect there gonna be a haircut in the future, your asset is gonna decline, the net worth from the bank is gonna decline, and the leverage is gonna go up. Therefore, the constraint would be becoming binding, from not binding to becoming binding. So here we're not explicitly modeling the occasioning binding constraint. We introduce these liquidity channels to capture the dynamics in essence. So here at the bottom, we have the first order condition for the bonds. So for instance, the lambda v here measures the, is like a random multiplier associated with the incentive constraint. And the return on asset, the difference between the return on the asset and the deposit rate is the excess return. So if the constraint is not binding, this would be standard. There is no excess return. In this model, with the financial friction, the lambda v is positive. And therefore, the excess return is gonna depend on the, how tight your incentive constraint is. The tighter the constraint is, the bank is gonna ask for higher excess return for that asset. And those are adjusted for the leverage and adjusted discount factor from the bank's perspective. Okay, for the foreign economy, we abstract from the segmented financial market for now. There is no banks. So therefore, there is no default and liquidity risk as well. Households hold the gamut bonds, hold their own gamut bonds, and invest in private firms directly. The monetary policy at the union wide in the background, there is a standard Taylor rule. They follow the deviation for the inflation and output. That is weighted across the union. Importantly, we introduce unconventional policy of asset purchase, that the B, CB. So this is showing that at each period, that the monetary policy, the central bank, can go in the market to purchase the government debt. And the T here is whatever is either deferred asset as what happens now or the profit you make. And that, it's at the union level. And we assume that asset purchase is triggered by follow some kind of rule here that it depends on the excess return. So because excess return measures the financial constraint or how tight the financial market is, conditions is, the higher that spread, then the larger the asset purchase is. So it will capture that in the frame mechanism in the rule of perspective. So that is basically our model. And then now, oh, one more thing here. The solution, so because we have two regions here, you have a default, it's gonna take a haircut, the government, and then there is no, when there's no default, the haircut is zero. And there is some kind of probability, the transition between the two regions. And we also have a liquid channels, as I just explained, data V also depends on your default probability. So we solve this, we cannot solve the model by linearization, so instead we use the method by developed by Andrew and his co-authors. So those specific method would be geared towards solving those regime switch model that allowed the endogenous regime switch in the sense that the transition probability is not exogenous. All right, let me go to the result here. So the question we're interested is, how do default risk when interact with the liquid risk impact economy? And how does each channel contribute that impact? And also how effective asset purchase? So we're gonna start with a simpler case to say there is increase in the debt, therefore the default probability goes up and explain the transmission mechanism. And then I'm gonna show you a case that is kind of saying, oh, there is an active demand shock that leads to increased government debt. So it's one step further, but the underlying transmission mechanism flow through the same way as a simpler case here. So in a simpler case here, let's just think that there is a case of government debt increase by close to about 14%. And in this case, when debt increase, the government bond price declines. Now you have a higher supply, the government bond price declines. And then from bank's perspective, that tightens the balance budget, the constraint, therefore the private bond price also has declined. Basically they would have to sell the private bond to absorb the high government debt. And in this case you have the net worth is lower from the lower asset prices and the leverage is higher. And it's also drive up the excess return on the government bond. So basically we is in the higher leverage, we is in the lower net worth. What happens is a bank would ask for a high excess return on the asset in this titling financial conditions. And of course there are two extra channels that strengthening that dynamics here, one is default probability, which shows that at the bottom right here, as the debt goes up, the default probability goes up. So when the default probability goes up, the banks expect that they may take a haircut in the future that can further contributed titling conditions here. And also there is extra liquidity risk here, the channel, when the default probability goes up, the eta V also goes up. So the constraint that banks facing are even tighter because of the default probability. So there is a baseline in fact, there is default channels and then there is liquidity channels. And I'm gonna decompose that in a minute. If I do that, let me show you the impact on the real side. So the blue line shows a home economy and the dash is showing the foreign countries here. Because the banks has in the titling financial conditions, they sell the private bond actually, then the investment declines, take a pretty sharp declines here, 7%. And that leads to a low output and also because from the household perspective that they have a lower deposit in the banks and that their consumption could increase temporarily. But over time, because the lower output, the consumption also turns negative. Importantly, inflation for the home country in this case is increased because with titling financial conditions, it will raise the financing cost for the firms and that's inflationary. From the foreign countries, on the other hand, because there is a capital outflow from the home country to the foreign countries, therefore the investment is actually increased in the foreign countries and output goes up, consumption goes up. And that also has inflation goes up because that's more like a demand-driven. So even though the inflation increase in both countries, the underlying reason is different. One is from the supply side and one is from the demand side. Now let me decompose how the impact on the financial sectors, what is contributing to the default risk or what is to the liquidity risk here. So we hear that the blue line here shows the difference between the basement case, which is what I just showed you, against the case, there is no default risk, there is no liquidity risk. So you wanna think the blue line is basically, what is the default channel and the liquidity channel together contributed to the overall impact? And you can see here that in this case, the both channels lead to higher debt and the lower government prices and also they have a much lower net worth, therefore investment is lower, output is lower, excess return is higher, as the blue line shows here and inflation is also higher. Now interestingly that the red line is showing what is contributed by the default risk per se. And so you wanna think about the red line is the difference between the case, you have the default risk channel but they don't have the liquidity channel. And against the case, there is no default, no liquidity. So that is just the red line just saying, if you only have a default, you don't want to trigger the E that channels, what is the impact from that per se? And you see that it's qualitatively similar but quantitatively is much smaller that the debt is higher but the government bond price did decline but to much less extent and the net worth is declined but also to much less extent. So this is really highlighted that even though both channels could dampen the economic conditions but the really big impact is coming from the liquid channels from the banking sector. Okay, so then what we do here is that we say, now we introduce asset purchase in the presence of a two type of risk and we say how much the asset purchase could contribute like depends on which channels you have. Again, the blue lines you wanna think about how much a big impact the asset purchase could have if you have both channels in presence versus the red line here is showing you only have a default channels. So again, the asset purchase showed in the middle column here that the magnitude is would be different because it depends on the excess return on the government bond. And as I show you here that when you have both channels the excess return is much stronger when you have both channels. Therefore, the asset purchase quantity is a bit different. And so you see that with both channel play the asset purchase could really benefit could improve the output of our economy as net worth is higher. It's that of course it's boosting the government bond price. Therefore, it's improved the balance sheet for the banks that they did not have to sell as much private bond. It increased it's relative to the baseline case. It contains the scope. The investment has to decline and also contain the scope the output has to decline. And on the other hand when you only have a default risk of channel here the asset purchase is it triggers a smaller and that impact is smaller but it's really because the impact from the liquidity risk is much stronger than the default risk per se in this model. Okay, so before I go to the next exercise let me quickly summarize here is that as I said both default and the liquidity risk can dampen economic conditions here when you have increased government debt you have a high default risk but the impact from liquidity risk is far more consequential therefore the asset purchase becomes more effective in this case. Now we want to consider a negative demand shock to the home country. So you think here we can see the negative investment efficiency shock but it could be other shocks that just lead to deteriorations in the economic conditions and then therefore the government debt is increased and the default probability goes up it also shift the distribution that therefore that even for the same level of debt your default probability could be higher. So both channels is going to increase the default probability and also could have the tightening liquidity channels if that is present. Okay, so let me quickly go through this. You know it's a quantitative could be different but the qualitative is really assuming as what I just showed you. Right, you have when this is again the difference between the blue line is showing when you have both channels in presence you know how much both channels going to contribute to the economy versus you don't have either channel and the debt is going to be higher government debt price is lower and investment is lower versus you have only have default channels that is much more content the scope. And again asset purchase similar as a simpler case that the asset purchase is more powerful he has much big impact when you have both channels in place. So let me conclude. So at the moment what we have is we're showing that when you're having a case that the default risk leads to a liquidity risk and we show the magnifying effect from this liquidity risk really appears to be far more consequential and therefore asset purchase it seems more effective. So next step what we would like to do is that introduce the financial intermediary to the foreign country block. Therefore we could explore more about the cross countries be over through the financial channel at the moment that we only have the trade channels. And you potentially could ask a question is that what if you have a union water liquidity shock how that affect countries with a weak macro fundamentals. So with that. Thank you. Thank you very much. We've seen also for adjusting so well to the time slot. So the discussion is going to be provided by Anna Rogantini Pico from the ECB. Anna you have 15 minutes. Thanks a lot for letting me participate in this great conference and discussing weeks in papers. So let me start first putting the paper into the Euro area context. Prompted by crisis of various nature the ECB has put in place a variety of policy tools involving sovereign bond purchases. In 2012 at the peak of the sovereign debt crisis it announced the outright monetary transaction in 2020 to address the pandemic emergency the pandemic emergency purchase program was set up announced and implemented right away. And just a year ago in 2022 the transmission protection instrument was announced to address fragmentation risks and help the transmission of monetary policy. Well some of these policy tools have been activated like the PEP others have only been announced and this has been enough to calm things down like the OMT for example but in all cases the big challenge for policymakers is really to understand how two risks the sovereign risk and the liquidity risks which are at play together how they interact and they reinforce each other. And when we have a better understanding of this of course how this asset purchase is done by central bank can facilitate a smooth transmission of monetary policy when the two risks are at play. So this paper really is an extremely timely contribution to the policy debate on how to think about sovereign and liquidity risk and their interaction. So the paper in a nutshell so the big contribution is to jointly model the fault and liquidity risk in a two country monetary union set up and in particular the fault risk is endogenous in the interim regime switching process that depends on debt to GDP and on macro fundamentals. And the second important ingredient is liquidity risk and that stems from financial market segmentation meaning that households can't directly buy bonds but they have to do that via intermediaries which are constrained. And so that generates friction with this amplification channel. So once the model is set up with these features then what Hook's seen has shown us is a quantitative assessment of the relative importance of these two channels in response to an exogenous rise in government debt. And in particular the direct effect of sovereign risk turns out to be moderate but what is really quantitatively more significant is the amplification coming from liquidity risk channel. So given these two channels at play if we want to evaluate the effects of sovereign debt purchases done by the central bank because the stronger amplification comes from the liquidity risk then it turns out that the asset purchases are most effective in dampening precisely this channel. And so they're more stabilizing when there is liquidity risk which amplifies sovereign risk. Government purchases would be effective also in absent of this amplification effect but the effect would be less strong. So the plan of the discussion is first to zoom in the main ingredients, the sovereign risk and liquidity risk and then thinking about whether this is really a model for OMT or TPI which direction of propagation which should think about and explore and thirdly on the spillover effects across countries. Okay, let me start from Indogenous Default Risk. This happens in the home country. Remember this is a two country setup but sovereign risk only happens in home country. And so there is a haircut that the GDP, when the GDP ratio goes above a given threshold, BSTAR. And it's Indogenous because there is a probability that the GDP is bigger than its threshold which is dependent on two things. One is macro shocks. And the other is debt to GDP ratio. The second ingredient that is important is this liquidity risk channel and this is modeled adding a friction a la guerre d'encarradie and more recently Sims and Wu. And here, so financial markets are fragmented because as I was saying, households can't directly purchase bonds but they have to do it via intermediaries. But these intermediaries face an agency problem in the sense that they could run away with their assets. So there must be an incentive constraints for them not to do this. And so that's the incentive constraints. The value of the intermediary has to be non smaller than a given share of the assets that they hold. And this is both private assets and sovereign bonds. And what is important is this ETA, this share that can be thought of as credit tightness. And what is important for the amplification channel is that this ETA is gonna be a function of the default probability. So this is what connects the sovereign risk to credit market tightness. And so in particular, if this parameter phi is zero there is no amplification effect coming. So the default risk is not gonna make financial markets tighter. But if this channel is at play, then an increase in the default probability is gonna tighten the constraint that the financial intermediaries face. All right, so then the, well, this liquidity risk channel amplifies sovereign default risk at Bocola 2016. So now to my first comment, is this a model for specifically OMT or TPI? So here I reported the description of TPI in the ACB statement. And it says that the Euro system will be able to make secondary market purchases of securities issued in jurisdictions experiencing a deterioration in financial condition, not warranted by country-specific fundamentals. So we all know how hard it is to really identify the cause of the deterioration in financial condition in practice. But this can be done in a model. That's I think why we have models for like to fix ideas and think more about how we can decompose the two. And so I was thinking about the amplification channel that is activated in response to micro shocks or fiscal shocks. So at the moment, what you've shown us is an exogenous increase in debt to GDP. It would be this S, T minus one here in the, which is gonna increase the probability of default and so tighten the financial markets. But this, like the model at the moment is kind of silent about what drives this exogenous increase in debt to GDP. It could be driven by fundamentals, worsening, but it could also driven by beliefs that just move. And here I'm thinking about, I don't know, the Calvo model or more specifically to apply to the Euro area, Corsetti and the dollar 2016. So I was wondering whether if we wanna think of your model as a model for TPI where the central bank can intervene only if this increase in the excess return is not warranted by country-specific fundamentals but it might be belief-driven, well, can really the two drivers of this increase in debt to GDP be disentangled. And even if we think about OMT, the mere announcement of OMT was sufficient to actually rule out this belief-driven fluctuation. So I think if you want to target your model more specifically to some tools that the ECB has or central banks have, it will be nice to think more about the drivers of this increase in debt to GDP. My second comment is on the propagation of the shock. So at the moment, you've mainly focused on the amplification going from sovereign risk via this liquidity risk channel through to a tightening in credit markets. But of course it depends a bit on what crisis you have in mind when you model. But I think your model allows you to also think about the opposite direction of amplification. Everything is already there. And if you think of the past crisis, well, we had credit crunches which actually triggered sovereign debt crisis. So if I think of the ingredients that you already have, this would mean an increase, like a credit tightening that triggers a contraction in the economy. Because you have endogenous default risk, this would lead to a drop in debt to GDP ratio. And so it would trigger an increase in default risk. And so you would have this feedback loop. But the trigger would start in the financial market and move to the sovereign market than the other way around. And I think because you have these both channels and both directions of propagation, I think it would be nice to look at both directions and not only one arrow, let's say. And finally, my third comment is on how you could leverage more the two countries setup. But I saw from your conclusions like that you're already thinking about this, so I'm very glad. So at the moment, all this amplification effect going from sovereign risk to credit markets, we would have it also in a close economy setup so you don't really need a two country model. But I do think that having a two country model is valuable, especially if we wanna think of the Euro area and the ECB policy tools. And so at the moment, the two countries are connected via imports. So consumption and investment baskets are made of domestic and imported goods. And there is a one period nominal bond which is traded across countries. So this allows you to look at the spillovers of an increase in the home country default risk to the foreign country. But let's now think about the crisis that the Euro area had been through. And if we think of the sovereign debt crisis, there was a huge exposure via the banking sector from one country to the other. I'm thinking here of German banks, for example, being exposed to a Greek sovereign bonds. And so I think in your setup, it would be really nice if you could model these spillovers more directly, having a segmented market also in the foreign country and having intermediaries in the foreign country directly being exposed to home sovereign bonds. Now you can only look at the macro consequences, but you don't have this direct spillover via the financial markets. And here what I'm thinking about would be having, like model intermediaries also in the foreign country as be subject to these incentive constraints and having them holding not only foreign country bonds but also home country bonds. So in conclusion, I think it's a very nice framework that connects sovereign risk to credit tightness and allows you to study the propagation of shocks of different nature. And in particular, it's a model that features endogenous sovereign risk and liquidity risk channels that amplifies sovereign risk. And there's a very nice technical contribution as well because it's challenging to solve these regime switching models and you do with the machinery of Andrew, I guess. So my comment is maybe one big comment is like, now you've built this very nice model that you can use as a laboratory to think a bit more precisely about which crisis you wanna model and as a consequence of which shock. And in particular, I would try to really think whether the increase in data GP is driven by macro fundamentals of by shifts in beliefs because then the policy tool that can be activated can either be activated or not. So it would be nice to see what are the differences. And then I would think more whether the crisis originates in the sovereign debt market or in the private credit market because you can get amplification in both directions. And finally, I would, because we are thinking about the Euro area, I would try to think harder about the spillovers from one country to the other also connecting the financial sector more. Thanks a lot. Thank you. Thank you very much, Anna. I would suggest now opening the floor for questions and then probably Heshin, you may want to address also some of the comments made by Mariana to whether we further points and questions. So Klaus, Leo, Sujit. Yeah, thank you. Thank you for the great presentations and discussion. I would like to take a step back, thinking about the overall framework or setting. I mean, your model nicely shows that if there is a fundamental shock, the problem results from the fact that banks hold government bonds. A lot of government bonds, I would suppose, and that these government bonds are not in investment funds or directly held by households. So that means now there's a reason for the center bank to intervene. Now, if there was better regulation which would reduce the amount of bonds, banks are allowed to hold from their domestic sovereign to reduce the doom-loop risk potential, that would be less of a need for QE or TPI or OMT to step in into such situations. Now, can one think that banks and regulators are not ignoring the signal sent by, say, TPI? Could it be that banks say, oh, there is somebody who will step in as you describe in your model, even in a fundamental shock because it spills over into a liquidity shock, and say, okay, I have less need to de-risk my balance sheet. I have less need as a bank or as a regulator to tell the banks that it's perhaps not good to have too many sovereign bonds of their own domestic sovereign on the balance sheet. And if these incentives are created by the center bank, I would wonder how far we are away from this wonderful paper by Fari and Tiro, 2012, which was called Collective Model Hazard and Bank Bailout or something like this, or is it not exactly what the center bank may induce what Fari and Tiro have written 10 years ago? Thanks. Let me first say, I find this paper really very, very interesting and helpful also for us to understand better what could be done. And this amplification channel, I find it simply convincing. If it's there, if you not have only default risk, but liquidity risk, Klaus explained, maybe we could discuss why we have reached this point, but if this is strong in the financial system, it makes intuitive sense that central bank purchases will be more effective in mitigating risk. Now, my question is the following. Let's assume for a second, there is not this amplifying liquidity risk channel, just default risk. I mean, how do we have to model to design central bank purchases of debt? So not unintentionally, we may make default even, even more likely. And there are, you know, there are very simple points. For example, as the bonds bought by the central bank senior or perceived as being senior, this can make a residual debt held by private investors more risky. This by simply through a poor design could destabilize the system. In a monetary union, there are these important aspects of risk sharing versus non-risk sharing. Do we create free writing incentives to default on taxpayers from other countries or not? So all these things, I think for this, you need to have a different setup, but they would matter, so to speak, to understand how we address the underlying problem. And then on top of this comes a channel which you so nicely describe. Oh, sorry, Sujit, you may want to address these points, Hushin, and then we take a second round of questions. Sure. Yeah, thank you. Let me start with Leo's question. So yeah, that's an important question, is that how does asset purchase will change the bank's incentive in terms of, you know, it's related to cross-question about, you know, whether they should even purchase or having those risky government bonds? It's a little bit out of the scope of this paper because we are taking as, you know, the default, of course, the probability is endogenous, but we don't model that incentive, right? In the sense is to really address your questions, you have to model when we'd like the default. And in reality, of course, there is a willingness or to pay back like that. There's also political factors there. And I'm very sympathetic to your point, but there's a little bit out of the scope of this question and we acknowledge that. And going back to the first question is that the regulation. So that's gonna be like, ultimately say what's the optimal determination? Like who should hold those, taking, let's assume that the government debt, those coming debt is risky, who should hold those debt, right? So it's against a little bit out of the scope of this model because, you know, like, regardless, you can think about the framework, right? Not just all banks holding it. Like a household could hold in some of the bonds, but then you need to introduce some kind of friction in the sense that, you know, when they intermediate in those bond market, they maybe have some not as efficient as a bank. So therefore, there's some adjustment cost. That can be done. But again, when those households they have, has a haircut, there is consequence as well, right? So in terms that the model perspective, that's not gonna change a whole lot of who's holding that. But I think it is important question is that, ultimately, who should hold those risky debt? If you are thinking that it is risky and there's no, maybe the best answer is to make it less risky, but that's of course, it's another questions for itself. Going back to Anna's point, I think I very much agree with all your discussion. Thank you again for those comments. And probably as you can see that the paper is somewhat not entirely complete, that we build this infrastructure, right? That can do more. At the moment, we really focus on how the default risk is gonna channel to the liquidity risk and then the response from the central bank. But that's why I was saying the end is that we could have the foreign economy also have the banking sector and then really build that the interaction between the financial friction, financial sectors and to address that, you know, you could say how the liquidity risk affected the default and how to leverage these two countries set up at the moment is a little bit, I mean, I have to say that the fact that you have two countries, right? So when the domestic financial condition tightens, you have capital outflow. So there is some level of those impact that kind of further constrained the domestic if you think about the compared to the closed economy, but for sure it's not fully leveraged the framework. And that's something we tend to do as an extra step. So we have three minutes for three questions starting from the right, so you get a bit more than two from the left. So please try to be concise. Thanks very much. It's a similar to a starting point of Klaus, but what if you just tightened liquidity regulation in the model, would that not reduce the need to have asset purchasing purchases? Thanks. Yeah, and I would like to follow up a bit on the comments by Anna. And I'm wondering whether the relative importance of the default risk relatively to the liquidity risk could be affected in a situation where we have a sudden stop that suddenly increases the default risk of a country for a given level of debt? Yeah, also leveraging on Anna's discussion. To what extent does the introduction of asset purchases reduce the probability of switching to the, if you want, bad equilibrium? Because in a sense what you show us is you need very aggressive asset purchases to intervene once a shock occurs. But in a sense, what Anna also mentioned, the specificity of OMT and TPI is it's introduced and in a sense it provides an insurance and if it's credible, it may never need to be activated. And so to what extent can you capture some of this by, for example, reducing the adverse liquidity effects of a shock occurring because something is in place, but it may not need to be used. The second comment relates more to the instrument choice of the central bank, because given that liquidity risk is so prominent, you could think of liquidity providing facilities like the FATS BTFP, no way. You lend against collateral without haircuts at power value and so in that sense you would shield at least the banking sector and that relates maybe to comments by others. It depends a lot whether in your model you have one type of financial intermediary and let's call it a bank, but if you have non-banks, then of course, you would have a difference between asset purchases and liquidity providing operations. So as you know, I'm a great fan of this research of yours. A question that perhaps you will want to consider at some point if you have not done it already is how precious it is to have in the financial system an asset that can truly be regarded as safe and compare the overall performance of the model with such a financial system with one in which sovereign debt is indeed full of default risk. Great, thank you so much for all the questions and it definitely provides a lot of food for thought and the way further explore those framework. So there seems to be some questions. So let me start with a sudden stop. Yes, so I think the relative like smaller impact for default risk in this model is that it's already assuming in a sense if the banking constraint is already binding the extra impact from that potential haircut is small but you absolutely right if you have occasionally binding consent from financial intermediaries you as you know, it's captured by the ETAV, right? So you want to think that ETAV, why is it so powerful is because it captures how you could making the constraint much binding therefore that impact we really try to highlight that is why the impact is so big but if, but once the constraint is binding the extra impact from the potential haircut is fairly small. So that's kind of what we show in the model and then for the vitreous point of asset, yeah so if we're gonna have like cross country asset holding like the banks could hold in German bonds then we could have that, we could address that that we could compare how, for a baseline case how that impact and then to Christopher's points about the announcement effect, yes to address that we would really need to take a word and we're saying that you would have like some belief driven not a fundamental driven, right? You have some, even there is no deteriorations in the necessary in the macro conditions or but there is some beliefs about driven so therefore the announcement could have a big impact on it. We could probably think about that some of that a news shock, you know like okay you have announced something's gonna happen will it potentially happen in the future and to see how those news effect affect the dynamics. We have not done that yet but that's a good point and the liquidity providing, yes that would be I guess I don't know whether in this framework necessarily gonna impact is gonna be different even though you know so BTFP you have collateral you know you can basically get the money from the Fed using the collateral as without a haircut. Instead of saying you're gonna purchase the asset that's gonna boost the asset price therefore you are in the bank in a better position with the asset quantitatively I'm not sure whether it's gonna be different but that's certainly something we could try to explore in a sense different programs how that affect the impact. And the tightening the different liquidity constraint or you know like different regulations in the banks that would be so the incentive constraint in the banks some people would interpret that as a bank regulations. So you could think about it you could probably have something similar to say okay what if you're gonna penalize the asset that has haircut versus in terms of the regulation versus if you have a safe asset you don't penalize that that's something we could explore as well. Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you very much. We've seen enough for a very, very good presentation and discussion. So next on the list is Francesco Bianci from Johns Hopkins University who is going to present the paper fiscal influences on inflation in OECD countries 2020, 2022 which is joint work with Robert Barrow. So Francesco, what is yours? First of all, thank you for having me and given that I'm the last speaker of the day let me take this opportunity to thank the organizers for this great conference. So this is a joint work with Robert Barrow and what we are interested in doing in this paper is to understand the cross-sectional inflation episodes in the post COVID period through the lens of the fiscal tier of price level. So this is mostly Robert speaking the first two bullet points. So this theory has been around since the early 90s and like Robert is saying here it wasn't taken seriously by mainstream macroeconomists for a while mostly because there was a little bit of the understanding or at least the notion that inflation was mostly under the control of the monetary authority and it is probably close to the truth for the period from 1980s to 2020. So somebody might argue that maybe the 70s can be interpreted as fiscal inflation but in recent years central bankers economists really thought about inflation as the result of monetary policy action. However the post pandemic inflation associated with this large increase in deficits led some macroeconomists to look a bit more closely at the fiscal tier of price level and one of them is Robert and that's how we got to work together. So in particular what we're going to do in this paper is to think about the cross-sectional evidence on 37 OECD countries over the period of 2020, 2022. So really in the aftermath of the pandemic and we are going to, as I was mentioning in the beginning do this through the lens of the fiscal tier of price level but I would say in the bare-bone version of the fiscal tier of price level. So you will see in a moment we basically try to be as model free as possible and really think about a frictionless environment with no nominal rigidities. And the idea is that this allows us to get to the essence of the fiscal tier of price level while in some of my previous work you need to buy perhaps other assumptions with respect to nominal rigidities or other kind of frictions. So in a nutshell you can think about the fiscal tier of price level has stemming from these government inter-temporal budget constraints that is effectively an accounting identity in itself. The fiscal tier of price level thinks in a different way how this accounting identity can hold. And so on the left hand side you have the market value of that in real terms. And this has to be equal to the present discounted value of future primary surpluses. So these movements in primary surpluses can potentially lead to movements in prices and in richer versions with maturity structure can lead to movements in expected inflation. Okay, so as I was saying, so in this paper we try to make a series of simplifying assumptions to get to a very simple econometric exercise. What I would like to emphasize is that there are a series of simplifying assumptions but qualitatively you're not losing anything from making these simplifying assumptions. They simply allow you to look at the data in a much simpler way than you would be able to do otherwise. So what are these simplifying assumptions? So the first one is that we suppose that there are M periods, think about the post-pandemic episode during which governments spend significantly more than what they would have done otherwise. So think about a pre-pandemic trend that would tell you how much governments typically spend so we can measure the excess spending as a result of the increase in spending observed pre and post COVID. Then we assume, and we had I think a long discussion about this yesterday, we assume that the growth rate of the economy is equal to the real interest rate. Again, here what you need is that this is not particularly important for what we are doing. So as long as they are similar, you will get a similar approximation. We are going to assume that in response to this increase in spending, there is the possibility of a temporary increase in inflation over the target, the last capital T periods. And here capital T also coincides with the maturity of a standing debt. And then finally, we assume a particular maturity structure for which nominal payments grow with the economy, with nominal GDP. So if you make the simplifying assumptions, then the nice result is that you get a very simple functional form in which on the left-hand side you have the increase in inflation with respect to the pre-pandemic experience. On the right-hand side, you have a fairly intimidating term that is the increase in spending divided by the real value of the debt-to-GDP ratio and the average maturity structure of outstanding debt. So it doesn't take, I guess, much to think why the first term is there, why the increase in spending is there. It is sometimes a bit less intuitive to understand why the real value of debt or the maturity structure should be there. And I'm going to talk about that in a moment. But so notice that there's this coefficient eta. So in the extreme version of the fiscal price level, this coefficient would be equal to one. In the extreme version of record and equivalence, this coefficient would be zero because any change in spending today is expected to be undone by future changes. So what we're interested in is trying to understand what is in the data, at least with respect to the post-pandemic experience, this coefficient eta. So as I was mentioning in the beginning, for a long time the inflation was really perceived as under the control of the monetary authority. Another way to say this is that perhaps during regular times, inflation is not so much related to fluctuations in the present discounted value of spending. And so you might think that what happened with the pandemic is that we had a sort of emergency budget for which there was the understanding that we were not going to increase taxes following these large fiscal stimulus. And so this is related to some older literature by Lucas and Stocchi in particular with respect to wartime financing. But more recently, Sergeant and his co-authors have a paper in which they draw the parallel between the post-war war experience and the post-pandemic experience. They basically do a series of, they draw a series of parallels between what happens following a war and what happens following the pandemic. And more modestly, I also done work on this topic, showing again that you can think about the post-pandemic inflation as the manifestation of an emergency budget or what we call it in our work is an unfunded fiscal shock. But long story short, while during regular times, you might think that inflation is perhaps coming from business cycle dynamics or other events. So there might be some key moments in which inflation might actually be really related to expectations about how the government is going to finance a large increase in spending. Okay, so as I was saying, let me explain for a moment why we have the different terms. Okay, so the first term is the size of the fiscal stimulus itself. And that's exactly what you would expect beyond the fiscal price level. So this idea that if you have a larger fiscal stimulus and possibly some nominal rigidity, that might eventually lead to inflation. So what makes this functional form a little bit different from this basic Keynesian thinking is the role of the other two terms. So the first one is the amount of outstanding debt. So if you remember, this term enters in the denominator. So what that means is that for a given fiscal stimulus, the larger the amount of outstanding debt, the lower the increase in inflation. So why is that the case? Well, because if you think about inflation as a form of financing, the larger the amount of debt that is currently outstanding, the same amount of inflation is going to generate more revenues because you are essentially inflating away, roughly speaking, a larger portion of accumulated debt. And before the maturity structure, the maturity structure here plays two roles. The first one is that if you have an outstanding maturity structure, you can smooth out the increase in inflation because by smoothing out the increase in inflation, long-term nominal interest rates go up and these devalues the current amount of outstanding debt. And more in general, the longer the maturity structure, the stronger these revaluation effects. And so unlike what you would expect from the simple Keynesian intuition, these two terms play an important role in our empirical results. Okay, so the other important event that on top of COVID, on top of the fiscal stimulus that occurred over the relevant sample is the Russian aggression of Ukraine. So we control, we try different things. We try to measure the distance from the border with Russia or Ukraine. We try to control for the trade relations between these countries. But it turns out that the one that seems to work the best, and I guess that's a fact of life, is the simplest thing. So to simply have a dummy variable for the countries that are on the border with Ukraine or Russia. So in our empirical analysis, I'm going to show you two sets of results. One is let's say the basic specification based on the relation that I show you. And another one is a relation in which we add, it's a regression in which we add a dummy variable if the countries under examination are on the border with Russia or Ukraine. Okay, so the countries that we are looking at are the 37 OECD countries except for Turkey that as you probably know, has been all over the place even before COVID and arguably for reasons that are not really related to the pandemic. So this gives us 20 countries outside the Eurozone and 17 countries in the Eurozone. So for the Eurozone, I'm going to show you two sets of results. In the first set of results, we are going to treat these 17 countries as a unique economy consistent with the fact that they have one single currency, but also consistent with the fact that they are fairly integrated with each other. And then I'm going to show you another set of results in which we also control for the amount of spending that occurred in the different countries. We are going to look at both headline inflation and core inflation. And as I was saying, we are going to look at with and without these Ukraine-Russia border. And we are going to look at what is interesting for us, what is interesting for us is the estimated coefficient eta. You can think as the share of spending that is financed by the surprise in inflation. Okay, so this is our core results. As I was telling you, the advantage of doing a little bit of work ex ante through this series of approximations is that then the econometrics is very easy. So that's a little bit different. As I was saying from other things I've done in the past in which you take the model at face value, but then the econometrics become a little bit more complicated. So here essentially what we are doing, we are regressing the change in inflation, post and pre-COVID, on the size of the fiscal stimulus rescaled by the amount of outstanding debt and the maturity structure and the average maturity for each country. In the first two columns, you have headline inflation. In the third and fourth, you have core inflation. In column two and column four, we control for the border with Ukraine. So as you can tell, these coefficients are all strongly statistically significant. Etta, that is in the second row, let's focus in the interest of time on the case with which we control for the Russian border. You can see that the coefficient is statistically significant and around 0.4. It gets a little bit closer to 0.5 when you look at core inflation. And interestingly, also the border dummy is a strongly statistically significant. And if you look at the R-square in column two and column four, you find an R-square that approaches 80%. So that means that a fairly large fraction of this cross-sectional variation can be explained by the combination between the fiscal stimulus and the Ukraine-Russia conflict. As you can see, the coefficient on our composite government variable, government spending variable doesn't change. Significantly, with and without the border, especially if you focus on core inflation, what it does is really is able to explain why a couple of countries that are on the border with Russia or Ukraine experience significantly more inflation than what can be justified just by looking at their spending. So this is essentially what I just said. So, as I was saying, we look at both the euro area and the US and for the euro area, what we find is that both measures of inflation and spending are slightly below the United States. Interestingly, both economic areas are very much in line with the rest of the world but in the middle of the pack, so to speak. So there are no outliers in any direction. And when you plot the relation between our composite government spending variable and the change in inflation, you get this very nice relation that doesn't show any particular outliers. Again, controlling for the border with Russia or Ukraine. So you see that all countries line up on the diagonal. You see it in the middle euro and the euro area and the US are really like in the middle, both in terms of spending and inflation experience. So if you do, as I was saying, we can also do this for core CPI and the results are essentially identical at least visually. So as I mentioned to you, we treat the euro area as a unique, oh, sorry, I was jumping ahead. So as I was mentioning to you, the components of our government spending variable all have a theoretical interpretation. So there is a reason why they are in there. So something that we try to do is to assess if any of these components is disposable. So in other words, we took our same model and we restrict, let's say, the maturity structure to be equal to the average or the amount of debt to be equal to the average or the amount of spending to be equal to the average across countries. So as you can imagine, it doesn't take much to guess that restricting the amount of spending is strongly rejected by the data. But what it was interesting for us, and to some extent also a little bit surprising, is that even if you try to restrict the amount of debt or the maturity structure to be equal to the sample average, the model is strongly rejected by the data. So what it means is that if you do some kind of model comparison, you would always put something like at least the 99% weight on our baseline model in which government spending is rescaled by maturity and outstanding debt versus the alternative. And if you consider the model in which you simply do not control for any of these two variables, the model doesn't work that well. And we believe this is actually interesting because again, you can think about a new Keynesian story, a Keynesian story in which more spending leads to more inflation, but then that doesn't seem to be working that well. In the sense if you consider a regression in which you regress the change in inflation on the amount of spending across countries, you actually don't get any meaningful results. Okay, so as I was saying, I jumped a little bit ahead. For the eurozone, we also try to see whether the amount of spending in the individual countries was an important determinant of inflation. So we did this in multiple ways, but let me just tell you the one that made the cut for the paper. So we have our baseline regression, but now with a very simple variation. So instead of having one economic area for the whole euro area, we consider all single countries individually. And for these countries, we have the amount of spending for the whole euro area. And then, and you see this in the third row, sorry, I was going to point to it, you see this in the third row, for these countries in the euro area, we also control for the difference between the country level spending and the euro area average. So that's the third row in this graph. So again, in the interest of time, let's just focus on column two and column four. You can see that if we look at headline inflation is mildly statistically significant. If we look at core inflation, that arguably is the cleanest measure when it comes to this idea of spending leading to higher inflation. The reason why I think it's cleaner is because it removes energy prices effectively. You see that the country level amount of spending is not statistically significant. So this is actually important because it's basically saying that for the euro area countries, the amount of inflation that you experience is largely determined by the euro area level of spending. And this is in fact consistent with the idea that the fiscal theory of price level should apply to the whole euro area and not just to single countries. But again, it wasn't obvious to us. And mostly because the euro area is not like the United States in which there is a very well-defined fiscal authority and a very well-defined monetary authority. So we thought that that was interesting. And again, as before, for the euro area controlling for the border with Russia or Ukraine is actually important. Okay, so if you wanna visualize this, thank you. If you wanna visualize this, so here the orange, gold line is our baseline. So what is implied by the aggregate level of spending? And so if you just control for the country level of spending, you get the blue line that in the case of core inflation is essentially horizontal. Okay, it means that it doesn't really contribute to explain much of the variation in the euro area levels of inflation. So I'm actually essentially done. So I'm a little bit ahead of time but nobody ever complained, especially not for the last speaker of the day. So what we did in this paper is to think about the fiscal stimulus implemented in response to the COVID pandemic and try to think about the inflationary consequences of these fiscal stimulus through the lens of the fiscal price level. As I was saying, we made a series of simplified assumptions that again, I wanna stress out that they don't change anything qualitatively, they just give you a very neat empirical relation that you can easily test in the data. And we applied it to OECD countries. So we are currently collecting more data to see if we can apply the same exercise to more countries. And what we find is that in fact, there is a strong relation between the amount of spending, once corrected for the outstanding debt and the maturity structure and the inflation that these countries experience. The other particularly interesting results given that I'm at the ECB is that for the 17 Eurozone countries, it seems that what really matters is the amount of spending for the whole Euro area. What we find is that the coefficient for this amount of spending is statistically significant. It's around 40, 50%. So there are two ways to interpret this. The first one is that the remaining part is going to be financed by future increases in taxes. The alternative interpretation is that part of the financing came from a rebound of the real economy, possibly triggered by the increase in spending. Thank you. Thank you very much, Francesco. So the discussion is Luis Garricano from the LSE. Luis, you have 15 minutes. I joined Francesco in thanking Stefania and Natasha and Jacopo and the Mostoners and Bastos and Leopold and Nico for the organization. It was a great time, a great conference. Thank you very much. So very fascinating exercise and interesting paper. I really enjoyed working through it. Let me just start with the most obvious, but just it needs to be said, which is that the fiscal fear of the price level doesn't say that fiscal deficits lead to inflation. So it's something that people tend to think and they talk about Japan, et cetera. It's not about that and that's not indeed what the paper claims that the paper does. That's a very good job, but I just start with this so that it's clear what the theory says is that fiscal deficits that are unfunded or there is an expectation around unfunded will not, will lead to inflation. The ones that are not funded by spending cuts and taxes are lower interest rates. So economic history says that the sergeant's been doing a lot of work on that or tells us that open happens in wars. It also, John Cochrane shows in his book that in normal times we do see that surpluses usually happen as a corresponds to deficits in normal times. So this distinction between normal times and special times is one that Barbara and Bianco and Bianchi and Francesco leveraged here and they say, look, inflation and fiscal deficits might not be much related to normal economic times but could be closely collected in unusual events which makes a lot of sense. There's a current QJA paper by Marco Bassetto and David Miller which has these two regimes and M regime and F regime and basically the arguing, look in the M regime you're far from the constraint from the moment where people start to panic. So basically whatever happens with government deficits not going to have any fiscal consequences whereas in moments where you are close to that to that moment when the curve starts shooting up there is going to be information sensitiveness. People are going to be talking about it. They're going to be doing Google searches. They show there are increased Google searches and the risk is going to be that these deficits will show up in indeed in price raises. So here what we have is not, I mean basically the model would give you with complete flexible prices, the one of shock in the price. Although as I had to read it was the use, the expression it was using yesterday with me was like what we thought was not inflation shock but a price shock. So it's very much what it appears in the theory. In this particular version of the theory in order to account for the fact that inflation staggered over several years you could think of sticky prices. You could think of, okay, well, we could just think of one period which is the three years of inflation. Here what happens is there is long-term debt so even with flexible prices you're going to have higher inflation devaluing today's debt, tomorrow's debt and little by little I'll show you that later. So they get a very simple equation and you can think of it as, if you think of just the OLS as just basically measuring the rise in the price level divided by the initial surplus shock is going to give you the fraction of the debt that is not paid by the subsequent surpluses. So it's a nice use of the fiscal theory to understand this important empirical question. I think it's the right framework because we're talking exactly about this first order prediction of the theory. The findings are consistent with the significant impact of the COVID shock and indeed as you saw the numbers are 40 to 50% unbacked. So the model just, I will not go through equations. I think if I just could tell you what the basic ideas are. You have basically an equilibrium condition. I'm not going to enter into this division. John Cochran heard the pilot constraint. You know, he hates that, but this is to the eye of the beholder here. We think of an equilibrium condition. The net present value of the government real primary surplus must be enough to finance this stock of private debt. So in the right, you have real surpluses. In the left, you have it. I mean, the P is you could put the P in the right to make it nominal. So with no government revenue increase, they're going to just simplify by looking at G then assume G equals to R and work through in the value of the debt. As Francisco told you, the debt to GDP expected constant, the expected inflation is pi star and there's unexpected inflation that values the debt. So you just work through that. Simplified Taylor expanded, get rid of the terms that get small and you get this pretty equation, which is the one at the bottom, which says that the sum of the primary deficits over GDP divided by the initial stock of debt is going to be related to excessive inflation. The paper has this kind of extra twist, which is because debt has this maturity structure, the fiscal shock is not going to give you one of jump, but it's going to give you jumps over time. So you're gonna have this, the notation is from John Cochran's book. You're gonna have this at every maturity, you're going to have some drop in the price of the bond that is given by how much the price level is jumping up. So how is that inflation arrived? Well, the monetary authorities accommodating or generating the chosen time path level of inflation. So they're going to take it to the data. This is the formula, the inflation rate reacts to a community search. I think everybody sees that from the formula. There's a slope that measures the amount of unfunded debt and probably it should be part of the model from the start, if possible. So there's the hypothesis which you can test that this time is different. You could have the h equals zero and then everything is as usual or you could have a positive eta which tells you we're in a war pandemic situation. The inflation increases larger, the bigger baseline of debt GDP. Francisco pointed this out, I'll talk briefly in my comments. And the debt maturity, this is more straightforward so I wouldn't discuss that. Debt maturity is going to mean that the higher debt maturity with a little increase in inflation, you're going to soak up more of the debt, get rid of more of the debt with less inflation. So that's actually giving you lower inflation rates with the same G. So the empirical strategy, the authors called old school econometrics which I like because I'm old school. So they just have the inflation differential regress. I mean, you could just see the paper as, hey, what's the correlation between two things and to what extent the excess government spent to GDP correlates with those inflations across those OCD countries. So three comments, the supply shock interpretation, the initial debt in the numerator and the euro zone. I will talk a little bit about the monetary fiscal interactions in the monetary union, the fiscal implications and so on. So on the supply shock interpretation, the authors argue that what you need for identification across country variation can be treated as exogenous. So the question whether this could be also consistent with inflation coming with the supply shock and think of Olivier's example yesterday from an energy price. So you have an energy price increase, higher energy prices, what are we going to do? I mean, we could just say, okay, we're going to get the price level back to where it was. So that means everything else has to have lower prices. The central bank says, well, there's sticky prices. So that's just too hard. So it chooses a higher overall price level and then the supply shock spreads. There's nothing nefarious, just that the bank is not targeting price levels. It's targeting inflation and once things have happened, well, bygones are bygones and so on. So is this really, really that different? Okay, so think through it. So the key claim, I think, and I put this on the table for Francesco and you all to discuss, but it seems to me that the point estimate that 40, 50% of the extra spending was financed through inflation. That seems to be still true. I mean, what's going to happen is you're going to have this. Precisely because the bank is just doing his job and saying, okay, well, this stuff happened, but inflation is just whatever it is. We're looking forward and not backwards. Then this result is still going to be true. So I think that it doesn't really matter, but I raise this issue. Second, the denominator, they also say, look, this is less intuitive, Francesco, explain it, I think very clearly. So I don't want to say much about it. The result follows simply from, if you have a lot of debt with, I think Francesco said it better than I'm going to say it. So if you have a lot of debt, just a tiny bit of extra inflation is going to wipe out sufficient debt to pay for all that extra G, basically. Third, the Eurozone and the European story, there is wide variation across countries in inflation rates. Part of it is the Baltics and the Korean crisis getting different, but it's clear. So these kind of supply and political issues in part, but it's also clear as Francesco showed you that the overall level matters. And I wanted to spend a couple of minutes talking about what are the fiscal theory implications in terms of the Eurozone or the fiscal monetary implications or at least to open some questions for discussion. So I'm working on this book with John and with Klaus on my right. We are still kind of working through it. I think it's in a relatively advanced stage, but there's still work to do. And basically what we are starting from is something that you probably saw in my question yesterday and some of the interventions by other people in the panel, which is this sense, this bizarre sense, that Europe is getting more intergovernmental. So think about, I mean, you're going to be shocked about what I just said. But think about from the expenditure side, people are talking about the need for a public, for a budget, for some public goods funded from the center, from the revenue side, we're talking about on resources. Well, the on resource discussion is going nowhere. The parliament tried to get these on resources on the table and the countries are totally against. The public goods, finance public goods, we tried that with the next gen. I mean, it was the next round, it was getting smaller at the end. There are no public goods with next gen, all the money checks for the countries. So the idea is, I mean, to some extent, what we are seeing is like, okay, there's only one European institution, which is this one where we are sitting right now, the European Central Bank. And it's kind of by necessity, by obligation, I'm saying by choice, it's just basically taking out all these other functions, this lender of last resort, lender of first resort, lender of second resort, all the other resorts, both in the interbank market and in the lending to governments in the past, in the recent past. And also with some of these instruments that we were discussing, like TPI, what you see is that there is an extent to which, and I don't want to exaggerate this, to which this insurance is creating the following type of moral hazard. Countries and European council as a whole don't need to do things because, hey, we already have common debt, which is reserves and the ECB doing its job. So think of the ESM ratification by Italy. Italy refuses to ratify the ESM. Will it refuse if the ESM was behind? I mean, the ECB was not behind. I mean, the ESM is a good thing for Italy, but they prefer to just kind of avoid cafe-credible threat and avoid this. Banking union, basically the banking union was dropped exactly, the banking union roadmap was dropped at the same time as the TPI announcement. So there is here a problem, which is like in the sovereign exposures problem keeps being there. So we are discussing the extent to which the institutions governing the error change over time as the ECB took all these other functions and the fiscal rules became less and less credible. There is now, we believe, a bit of a fragility with these very large sovereign fundings and this long-term situation with this in the long-term that the ECB has this gigantic balance sheet. I don't think there is a very clear sense that this is going to be reduced. You could say, oh, well, Japan has the same situation. So who cares? I think there are difference here as we discussed in terms that we need incentives for the construction of Europe that now don't seem to exist. And we believe that institutional changes are absolutely urgent to ensure that the Euro area is prepared for future adversaries. And right now, I honestly, like I've been on the inside and some of you know what I've been doing politics for a while. I'm now back to academia, but from the inside, you don't see any movements on any of these topics. Going back to the paper, pathbreaking work taking fiscal theory to data, a really nice parsimonious explanation and very important implications for policies. So congratulations to Francesco and I have 45 seconds left. So I think ours. Thank you. Thank you so much, Luis and Francesco. Let's do the same as before. Let's open the floor for some questions. Etore Lucho. First of all, just a quick reaction to Luis. If DCB is a central bank without a state, the problem is not with DCB. The problem is with the lack of the state. But so regarding this very interesting paper, you rightly move from this state contingent nature of public finance and you rightly assume an ETA above zero under exceptional circumstances, such as a pandemic or a war. At the same time, state contingency also means that fiscal policy can respond differently to different shocks. Now, I know that the US is pretty different from the Euro area, but here in the Euro area, we had two fundamentally different states of the economy during the period that you are considering 2020-22. We had in 2020-21 a phase that basically was of divine coincidence, but then in 2022, in the presence of a strong external supply shock, we had a monetary policy tightening coupled with a new generation of fiscal measures, you know, unconventional fiscal policies. So actually, if you look at the COVID-related measures already in 2022 on the aggregate, there was a rolling back of these measures. What kicked in were these new measures such as, you know, gas and electricity price breaks, energy, VAT cuts, which were deliberately, by very construction, designed to lower inflation, and in the short run, they succeeded. Although, of course, in the longer run, the jury's out whether this is mere inflation smoothing or really can have an effect. But so my point is that state dependency may matter not only for ETA, but also for the type and the composition of fiscal policies, more traditional measures, you know, with aggregate demand effects or unconventional fiscal policies. So does this matter should be taken into account? This is my question. Yeah. To question one very specific one, brother, the very specific question is linked to the revenue component of the reaction because as Luis was showing in one of his slides, it's assumes that revenue do not play a role and you have just expenditure in your estimate. Still, I guess country may have differed in the extent to which they acted on the revenue side. So I'm wondering why you are not taking into account perhaps because it's difficult to discriminate between the overall response of revenue and discretionary revenue measure, the discussion that we had also yesterday. So that is the specific question. The broad question, again, suggested, I mean, by listening to the discussion by Luis, is about the Euro area. I mean, and the fact that you showed that in the case of the Euro area, the effect is not differentiated. Now, in the pandemic, we also had the fact that the increase in deficit was all financed or overfinance in some cases by purchases of bonds by the ECB. Okay, I don't think this is capturing in your very simple specification, but I wonder whether you could elaborate whether this may have a bearing on your result. Yeah, first, well, thanks, Francesco, for this very, very interesting work. And I have a question about interpretation, but I think it's important. You find a positive value of ETA and throughout you have emphasized how this is consistent with the fiscal theory of the price level. But at least from a theoretical point of view, I view it consistent also with a word where the central bank is active. It tries to stabilize inflation, even not fully. As for instance, we have seen yesterday in the paper by Christian. We can even have a central bank that keeps the real interest rate constant, but generates inflation. And, but this is not related to the fiscal theory of the price level. So I would like to hear your thoughts about this. Thank you, Davide. Yes, Klaus, please. Very short question. Many of you know in the ECB that I'm a big fan of the work of Francesco. And I find it really interesting, this emergency case, which you know with Robert Barrow discusses that there is an emergency and then it doesn't depend whether you have a high or a low debt level to start with almost everybody uses some inflation. And even those with a very low debt level much higher inflation to get the same relief. And how does this Francesco contrast with the other work you're doing where say the fiscal limit paper you presented at Jackson Hole, where I always got the impression whether the fiscal theory kicks in with the deficits creating inflation is always when you are at the limit. When the fiscal authority has so much debt and so high taxes that they cannot further increase taxes credibly after a shock. So if that is to say outside a broad emergency like a war or a pandemic, then it would more depend on this country specific kind of constraints on future fiscal policy. How do you see that? If I may add my own five cents following up the comments by Davide and Lutro. I mean, I guess that in the Euro area we can distinguish two different periods after the COVID. The initial one was one with a very large fiscal response by national authorities by all the governments of the Euro that however came with falling inflation and falling inflation expectations. Don't forget that. I mean, at the beginning of our challenge was to reflect the economy because the shock was initially strongly disinflationary also with a negative impact on long-term inflation expectations. So I'm not sure that of course this is very informal, but I'm not sure that the mechanics of the fiscal theory of the price level applied to this very initial stage. The second stage was one of sustained inflation which can be argued that is lasting until now. But here, as far as I remember the fiscal theory of the price level tells you something about the connection between fiscal policy and deficits and the price level, not about inflation. In order to generate sustained high inflation you probably need sustained surprises on the fiscal variables because in expectation even in a non-recardian fiscal theory price level regime expected inflation is still controlled by the central bank. So in your view, how we should think about the fiscal theory in order to account for these two different stages in the crisis here in the Euro area. So with this, I'll give the floor to Francesco and we may pick up second. Okay, so let me first thank Luis for the great discussion also for broadening a little bit the perspective like mentioning his work. So let me start from the end. I always find it easy because I remember the question very well. So yeah, the very first version of the fiscal theory of price level was about price level determination. Then since then, and John's book I think summarizes this very well things have evolved quite a bit. So the first thing that was done is, well, if you have a maturity structure what stabilize that is also expected inflation because it gives you revaluation effects. Then people started working on non-minor agilities and I did a lot of work with that and there you have that even without a maturity structure inflation has its own persistence and so there is this interplay between the non-minor agilities and the fiscal theory of price level but even without going there and Robert prefers not to go there because he's not big fan of non-minor agilities you can really think that if there is a maturity structure there is an interest of policymakers to reflate the economy like very much like you were mentioning because that devalues the value of outstanding debt. So Klaus made a great point. So here it's a bit subtle the role of debt because it has two roles for conditional on a certain amount of unfunded spending, larger debt, lower inflation. There is a different question is like how likely are you to engage in unfunded spending and that might be the other way around if you already have a large amount of debt you might be more tempted to go with an unfunded level of spending. Now the reality of this and you know this is something I learned by working on US data the reality of this is that typically high fiscal inflation is associated with low debt. It's almost like the high inflation and low debt are just the other two sides of the coin in a sense if a country is allowed to drive up his debt to GDP ratio without massive inflation is because for one reason or the other maybe because it's part of a currency union there is the expectation that somehow we'll be able to sustain it, okay? But yeah, but if you are like, okay we are in a dire situation and we are more likely in engaging in unfunded debt because in a fund spending because we have already a large stock of debt that's definitely consistent. I think COVID is a little bit of a particular case in which no matter what your starting position was there was some justification in using unfunded spending also in light of the fact that monetary policy was constrained by the lower interest rate environment. So that would have made another good point. So I discussed a Chris paper so I know it very well. Like I think like in all models I think you need to buy something. So in increased work with the Marios and Chen you need to buy a boundary rationality of a particular form. You need to buy the fact that nobody internalizes the long-term low motion of the debt to GDP ratio, okay? So Lucio, yeah, so we don't talk about we talk about revenues in the paper. We basically say that revenues did not change much and mostly the large variation in primary services was mostly coming from spending at least for the window or time that we look at. Now we know that given that because of tax brackets some people have moved up in the tax brackets and so that has generated a mild increase in revenues just coming from the higher inflation. But again, if you think about the fiscal stimulus for us in the data it seems to be the cross variation seems mostly coming from different levels of spending. With respect to the ECB buying government bonds well, if you think that eventually these bonds will have to return to the market is still an increase in outstanding debt. Unless you think that the ECB is literally going to eventually monetize it but then that's inflationary in itself. I totally agree that it's important to think about that's a address point it's important to think about how exactly you implement spending. As I was saying, we take a very kind of high level approach here, then of course for policy purposes for policy advice, yes, it's also important to understand how you spend the money and it's possible that the error term that we don't have a 100% R square so it's possible that what explains that error term is well, no all spending is the same. I think I'm done. I mean, I don't think I had to add much to what Luis said I think these were more like kind of constructive comments there's nothing, that particular disagree with and I agree that John really hates that this government budget constraint thing email us saying that we shouldn't use it. We had at least one remaining question by Ramon. Ramon, please. I just have a final question it's almost more for Luis. Whether you think that now that it's more this intergovernmental mood, we are very lucky because if they had postponed 10, 15 more years the peer partner report, we will not be here. That's a philosophical question. I guess it goes with the, so my reflections went with the title of session so I hope this goes as well. I mean, if you think about it Ramon, I mean, I'm sure you've thought about it. I mean, the rule based trade order, right? The Washington consensus, that's the 90s. We have some good rules and we try all to behave well. The euro is a child of this consensus, right? This free capital mobility is a rule. It's an independent central bank. We are going to tie our hands. We're going to not do bad things on budgets. It's kind of a son or a daughter of Lucas, Toki, Prescott, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, right? So am I, it's now 30 years since I took my first microclass in Chicago. But all that is kind of the rule based world order and intellectual construct behind the Washington consensus is kind of being kind of questioned everywhere. And in some sense, the European Union, the limitation of state aids, the limitation on what the governments can do to help their companies. All of those things, we have a single market. We are all fulfilling the rules. Outside of Europe are being put in question. And in some sense, it's inevitable that inside of Europe, all of those institutions are kind of, I don't know, I mean, in some sense, I mean, think of the single market and state aid rules. They are being obviously in question. And yes, I would think the very report wouldn't happen today. I would agree with that.

Yeah, Coach, how did you feel the team did play in a meaningful game here late in the season while it was under man? Well, I mean, I think, you know, say the obvious, we came up short there at the end, D-Led, but our guys battle, you know, we ended the half well, and we had our chances, but credit to Buffalo, they grinded out some drives when they had to have them late and we came up short. And the run defense, I know y'all wanted to stop the quarterback, but it looked like they were able to get single turns on two, how can you assess that? Well, I think, you know, sure, they did a nice job at times running the football. You know, Josh Allen, he's a terrific player and he extended plays. You know, we got him a few times, we were able to get some turnovers, but he was able to get some really extensive drives with his legs. He's a good football player. How tough was it dealing with the issues of COVID, practice squad guys, up and down? It's not tough, D-Led. There's an obstacle, and we'll adjust, and those are our circumstances, and our mindset, we'll adapt to whatever our circumstances are, D-Led, but I don't look at that one. Can you give us any insight on Kyle, kind of what happened in there? Well, you know, we'll get a clear picture hopefully tomorrow. He tried to go, but until I get an MRI, like most Mondays, I don't have an update right now. Do you think the series with Matt and the touchdown that was called back was all officiated properly? I'm not going to comment on that, Josh. So, you know, the officials have a hard job. Did you ask him what he said? Did you ask Matt what he said to get the tone and call or what? That would be a great question for Matt. So, I understand what happened there, circumstances, but it does no good right now to comment on the officiating. What do you kind of tell Matt, if anything, after kind of that series of events? Well, you get there. Obviously, they ruled it short. So, you'd like to be able to... I understand why it is. Why don't you ask Matt? I must stay away from that. Was it tough not having...I know how much I'll rely on tight ends, but not having Kyle, not Haightland? It is what it is. You know, everybody's got to deal with something. That's not our mindset. I don't look at it as tough. Those are the circumstances. It's our job to adapt. You know, credit to Parker Hesse. You know, there's a guy that was a defensive end out of Iowa. That, you know, in the class they took Hawkinson in a fan, and he turned himself into a tight end in the National Football League. And he stepped up, and we've got head guys all year. Receivers battle. We battle, but we came up short. After the third deception, you go into the win. Is that why you... Yeah, and it was. And obviously, we still got to handle that better. You don't want to waste the time out right there. I had an equipment issue. It wasn't communicated well. It went under 15. Obviously, based on the results after that, he would have just taken the delay, but at the time, you know, we needed to get something out of it. We didn't. And where that is, the lead in that end zone, you know, that's a tough end zone to kick a decent field goal into. Coach, was your game plan to run the ball more? Do you think you ran the ball enough in this game? Well, we did what we thought we had to do. You know, they grinded it out. They had the ball a good bit. I thought for the most part, we were able to move it. We had some decent runs in there. Clearly, we'd love to have the ball more. We got to do a better job of standing drops. Was Kozry injured when the 30th you ran it back? He was dealing with something. Yes, we'll have to see. Kind of like with all our guys, until we get into Monday to see the doctors, usually get MRIs. I'll give you a better answer then. Was this Buffalo defense kind of what you expected to be in terms of how they were able to affect Matt's ability to get the ball out? Well, I think what they do, an underrated job, they got a good scheme, good, you know, good depth in the middle. But a lot of those where I think they don't get enough credit, is they're able to match things underneath, make you get off your first reads at times and makes you hold the ball, which allows them to get those sacks. So it all goes in play. It's a good defense. Good scheme. Is offensive rhythm affected by lack of time of possession, especially maybe on a colder day, or sitting there for a while? Well, I think it's, you know, we had our chances to extend drives, Josh, and we didn't. But certainly your possessions are limited, so, you know, your numbers are going to be skewed, no different than the Detroit game. You know, we were able to win that one, but unlike we had a ton of offensive plays.

I think we'll start this out with the demo. We've got a hell of a chain, as you're going to have eight hands. You're going to have to fill out. You're going to have to buy the function full of it. We might be wrong. We're funny, but it's not always a joke. You know what I mean? There are mental designs that... No, I lied. Ha ha! Back with... I don't even know what the hell we're going to talk about. All I know is that we're supposed to talk about something regarding experimentation. So, let's get into the concept of experimentation as a whole. Right? So, like many authors and like many people, we've been... Behavior analysts of my generation were heavily influenced by Sidman. Right? Even those that were a little bit above me, if you will. So, before me. Heavily influenced by Sidman. So, one of my favorite things from Sidman is a quote that says, We conduct experiments to find out things we do not know. He doesn't have that accent, but I just figured it would impact. Right? So, why do we do experiments? To find out things we don't know. I mean, it's just brilliant, right? So, where do you go with this? Right? What's the next step? The next thing is, what is the... What's an experimental question? Sometimes experimental questions can be difficult to figure out. You have to be really cautious with your experimental questions. We have to make sure that things are testable. We have to make sure they're public. All these different criteria. Testability and, I don't know, specificity and empirical and I'm not going to get into all that stuff. It's for another series of videos that some day before I die, we will get to. And if I don't, then, well, we didn't. So, and I'm dead. Now I'm talking myself into a circle. Experimental circles. We don't do those. So, that's one of the things we have to be cautious about in experiments to make sure we're not using circular logic. But we'll come back to that at another time. Again, probably before I'm dead, if I'm lucky. So, experimental questions. What are they? They're the question that you're trying to answer in your experiment. They are the thing that you want to know about. Right? So, when Sid has been saying that we find out, the experiments find out things, find out stuff that we do not know, right? Have answered questions about things that we don't know. Then the answering thing is about a question and that question is the thing that you want to know and that's an experimental question. What effect does a tie have on behavior? Right? So, now we can find out what effect a tie has on behavior if we do an experiment. If we do it in the right way. Now, it's kind of tight. There we go. Right? So, we could do that, right? We could do, we could find out what effect ties have on behavior using a properly designed experiment, which leads us to experimental design. There's lots of them. They don't have time to get into them in this video and make this video palatable and interesting and brief enough for you to watch the whole thing. But we will do it in another video, including ABAB designs, ABAB designs, ABAB designs, ABABD, ABAB, ABAB designs, reversal designs, and all sorts of designs that are just kind of popping into my head right now. Lots and lots and lots of different research designs. Why are they important? They're important because different types of research designs allow you to draw different conclusions, okay? So, these different conclusions, well, sorry, they allow you to answer different questions in different ways, which can lead you to different conclusions and getting all ahead of myself. The experimental design technique is the procedures that you use when you conduct your experiment that allows you to draw the experimental conclusions. So, when you conduct the study, the conditions that you put people through, do you put them through a baseline first? Do you do an intervention phase? Do you bring them back to baseline? Or are you doing other designs where you have an intervention and a baseline and a different intervention, or sorry, a baseline and an intervention and a baseline and an intervention and a baseline and an intervention? There's all sorts of different things we can do. How those work is a topic of another video, but that's your experimental design. So, when you have a research question, you match your design to it. Some designs don't work with certain research questions. Again, we'll get back to that. So, we have to go, well, what's in a research question? Well, there's a couple of things. Dependent variables and independent variables. So, we're going to focus on independent variables first. Independent variables are the tightness of the tie. All right? So, it's rather tight at the moment. Let's see if I tighten it up a little bit. Let's see if you watch the color. There we go. Now, we're getting a really good tight tie. I'm not messing with my voice. The tie is messing with my voice. All right? So, if the independent variable is the tightness of my tie, I'm going to tighten up a little bit more because it gets loose as I talk. All right? So, if the tightness of my tie, I suppose the dependent variable would be my behavior. You could also probably measure the color in my face about now. I can't personally see it because we don't have a monitor, but I can feel that it's getting rather warm and my voice is getting rather scratching. All right? So, the independent variable, tightness of the tie, dependent variable, my behavior. Good thing off of me. All right? So, there we go. Whoo! So, as always, we're going to go back to the basics. Independent variables are the things that you want to know about. They're the things that affect behavior. They're the things that you want to see what effect they have. If I check everybody up with a really tight tie, does that do the same thing to everybody or does some people pass out and hit the floor? All sorts of interesting questions. What happens if you check up the temperature in the room? What happens if I punish you with this? All right? Those are all independent variables. That is the independent variable, right? The dependent variable is what happens. It's what you measure. In our field, it's your behavior, right? So, other things that we're going to talk about. So, that's independent, dependent. Dependent is dependent upon the independent. That's another way to think about it. The subject. What's the subject with us? Behavior. Subject is often the person, but the subject of study is behavior in any way you get the idea. So, the subject in the study could be a person, but the subject of the study could be behavior, right? So, notice how I said that. Of the study and in the study. There's your key. Let's see what else do we have in here. Oh, the experimental setting. The environment into which the experiment occurs. This has to do with external validity and all sorts of other types of validity. So, we want to make sure that if we're going to do a study in a lab that we also maybe replicate that study out in the real world to see if it has the same sort of effect. So, experimental setting is drastically important. Why is that important? Because it has to do with the control of extraneous variables. When we bring an experiment into the laboratory, what we really try to do is control for things like this. All of those things on that list are extraneous variables that might affect behavior. Let's go back to our example of tightening up the tie. Hold on. I got to grab the right one. All right. So, that's our independent variable. Oh, shoot. So, what are the things that could affect the independent variable, the tightness of the tie? What sorts of things could have an effect on my behavior? What are possible other scenarios that are going on in this particular environment that could explain my behavior other than the tightness of this tie? All of those. In other words, what you're seeing is anything and everything that you didn't control for is appearing on that list, which basically means everything in the dark world, whatever the heck it is, it's all there. Those are extraneous variables. They are concomitant variables in there, confounding variables. They mess with your ability to draw conclusions about the independent variable. See if I can just straighten it up. There we go. No, that's good. It wasn't a very effective intervention. All right, here we go. So, I'm good. We're back to normal. So, we try to control extraneous variables, confounding variables, concomitant variables, they're all the same thing. We control those in the laboratory in really highly controlled settings to draw conclusions about the independent variable. And then we go test that stuff out in the real world and see if those same types of things happen. I'm trying to think. Is there anything else here? No, replicability. We need to make comparisons. We'll get into baseline logic in another video. I don't know. Hold on one second. I'm going to check my notes. Ha ha ha. It'd be fussy. I was hoping the camera would adjust, but it didn't. So, that's pretty much it. So, we're going to come back and talk about baselines in a later. That was a video on behavior analysis. If you like it, please share it. Please subscribe. Please donate. We'd like to eat. I'm hungry.

Hello guys, good morning. Welcome back to our channel. So today in this video, we'll be talking about interview experience with TCS And this video was contributed by one of our subscriber friend and this video will definitely help people who are Who are having interview with TCS like who are bit confused like what topics to pressure before taking up an interview with TCS or like to know like what kind of questions are being asked at TCS So firstly, let us have a look at the email from our subscriber friend my interview experience with TCS Hello, this is Narendra having 5.3 years of experience. I recently came across your channel and it is really helpful Even I would like to add something here Before below is my interview experience with TCS three technical rounds were conducted through teams one manager round and one HR round Just lasted for couple of minutes. Okay. The HR round was just lasted for the couple of minutes Was offered a package of 18 lakhs per annum didn't join as I had some other good offer. So basically, this is what the 5.3 years of candidate The salary offer was 18 lakhs per annum. There were completely five rounds We can say like three were technical rounds one manager and one HR round So this is about the interview process with TCS So coming to the questions here are the questions like this is how we got the mail from Spring stack like basically spring interview questions or spring boot interview questions These were the questions asked difference ways to handle exceptions in spring MVC Explain in deep like in deep discussion on dependency injection like how the dependency injection happened What are the different ways we can do that? What is IOC? This all questions might have been asked there explain benefits of spring MVC over other MVC framework So I have to list down all the Advantages that we get using spring MVC here. What is view reservoir pattern and how does it work? So I have to explain on this and one more thing like the top four questions I believe are from spring MVC. So if you haven't worked on this like there are chances that you may not encounter this because the candidate was having experience of spring MVC So the he he was asked on this question Then the next question is what is scope in reference to spring bin? So basically you have to explain about the scope concept here So what are the different scopes that are available like what all difference code can be applied on the bin? What is the root application context in spring MVC? How it is loaded has to explain the entire process here Explain how an incoming request map to controller and map to a method Difference between direct request param and path variable explain the process of creating spring boot application using maven Indip discussion on different annotations that I have worked. So basically these are the questions that were from We are not aware like on which from which round these were asked But the questions were segregated like spring so under the spring section So basically these were the questions that were covered as part of spring and as well as spring MVC or you can say spring boot interview questions as well So please brish up at the entire spring framework. I would say like spring spring MVC or spring boot Once if at all you are applying for a job at TCS Want to grow in your crole and earn a salary of 1 crore by the end of five years And here is the golden opportunity for all those guys There are couple of ways to do this one is geographically shifting to another country and start earning there Which we basically call on-site or we can join a product based company which is in the growth phase I'll explain you why a product based company That is there in the growth phase with the potential to grow is constantly looking to hire a new team members And that can contribute and scale business over the growth and success of the country company determine the growth in responsibility and such companies and Such product based companies heavily compensate their employees for their contribute to their success Now the biggest question is how can we apply for those companies? There are couple of options here like we can Apply to no career linked in or we can have a referral program We can have some way like maybe we are having someone there and we are asking them to refer but Biggest challenge here is this type of companies which are there in their growth phase I usually hire from Taiwan colleges and many of us lack a degree from Taiwan College So how to apply for those companies? So here is the platform that comes to a rescue the platform that we are talking about from the last couple of months That is really well by an academy to apply for this This type of product based companies through level simply register For one of the test on front end or back end you can use my coupon coupon code to get 10% extra discount on the registration fee once you qualify for the test you will you will get a beautiful profile created which companies will refer to and Reach out to you for the interviews and based upon your interest you can apply for the business development test Front-end development test or back-end development test and once you click on the view jobs Based upon your interest if you are a back-end developer just click on the details So these are the product based companies which are in the growth phase and which can Pay you more than one crore in next five years. You can see the already the package is what they are sharing like credit is having 38 Resurperate 24 1 mg 30 So earning a one crore salary is not an unreachable goal now Many people with a passion and drive have already achieved similar success. Take your first step today So this don't miss this golden opportunity apply register take the test crack the interview The next section of questions are from Java like we can say Java interview questions that were asked this TCS Explain about the memory management like how the classes are created of the like basically how the objects are maintained Explain about solid principles and where have you applied in your application? This is a one of the mandatory interview questions as we have said in many videos that we have to have a good Grip on solid principles and also have to explain like in it what all places you have applied it in your application Explain about internal working out concurrent hash map. So basically concurrent hash map was differently than hash map It has segments So I have to explain that a lot of questions asked on multi-threading framework. So yes, there are few announcements in Java 8 compared future comparable Interface I think that got introduced a lot of people are asking questions on that So we have to push up that as well few programming questions based on stream streams We'll send a separate mail. So basically the coding questions were not shared He said me that he they will send in a supplement Maybe there are big questions here because when like my personal experience with TCS They were approximately four coding rounds for me that that that was also shared on this channel So maybe even he was asked to write a lot of code Asked to write a program and create singleton class lot lot of questions on it as well like basically there are few Ways to break a singleton question. So singleton pattern design pattern So maybe the questions were on that like how can we protect against that thing ask to write a program and create Immutable class lot of questions at the on it as well So basically we have to create an immutable class and if there are any add-on questions on it It would be to be basically based on the cloning if there are reference variable How would you clone the object difference between string string buffer and string builder? So this is a basic question. I believe like what is the difference between string string buffer and string builder? So these were the questions that were asked from the Java at TCS So basically you can say Java interview questions that were asked at TCS You can go through this or how you can halt a video and you can go through these questions as well So coming to the next section of questions. Those are from hibernate stack So these are the questions that very few questions. I would say So difference between JDBC and hibernate So if you have hands-on experience or if you have mentioned that you know hibernate only then these questions would be asked Just for information because a lot of people comments that I don't have experience on hibernate. Will they ask me? No, no, no, it's not like that for an experience candidate 99.9% they will ask questions only if you have hands-on experience on that So if you don't have hands-on experience, they won't ask you the question There are one person still there are one person's chances that people might ask you So these are the questions difference between JDBC and hibernate asked to explain about hibernate architecture How to deal with database deadlock situation explain on first level and second level cache explain about database sharding questions on How to one-to-one many too many mappings work? Maybe questions on how to like one-to-one and many to many mappings basically how we Configured that thing. So these were the questions from hibernate stack So if you have hands-on experience, you can brush up on these type of questions before taking up an interview In the next section, we will be talking about the questions from web services stack So what is the difference between HTTP and HTTPS? advantages of micro services were monolithic like other means I believe monolithic only So what all the advantages we get using micro services like while converting the application from monolithic to application? And basically there might be a counter question as well like explain about the disadvantages as well What all things do you consider before creating a micro service application? So basically we are planning to have a different video on this question. So that is in the Queue that will be posted very soon There are a set of things that we need to consider before creating a micro service application So in that video, we will share it in deep. What is the best way to communicate between different services? It's differently depends upon the project architecture. You can do you use this template can use fee client can use web client What is the best way to manage transaction when multiple service calls are involved? So again, this depends upon your requirement about your application like where your application actually serves So that based on that this will be taken into consideration like how to manage the transactions Ask me to design a sample application like Amazon. Just wanted to see my approach. Okay, so maybe What I can say what we can select? Approach based question we can say how what is the approach towards a solution whenever we face a challenge So based upon your approach This plays a crucial role in your selections as well. So few questions on how to handle exceptions in micro services There are different ways to handle again It depends upon your application Architecture how to handle the exception So these were the questions like technical questions those were encountered in three rounds So in the next section, it would be the questions from manager on so these are very interesting manager around questions That you can encounter in any of your Interviews, how do you keep yourself updated about the new trends in the technology in the industry or in the Technology side what all few things that are getting updated? So you have to prepare in well in advance of how to answer these questions What's the most recent thing that you have learned so you can say from any technical side You can say like I have learned so-and-so Technology I'm trying I'm trying to work on that thing Give an example of a project you have worked on and the technology is involved. How did you make the choices? So basically it depends again on a lot of things you have to work with architecture guys To finalize the technologies here. The next question is what all design patterns? Are you aware of so have to answer about all the design patterns that I you are aware of? So it is always best to prepare on this type of questions like on design patterns basically This is a technical question. I would say but was asked in manager round What's the programming challenge you have came across recently so I have to that again depends upon the individual List some common ways to reduce the load time of a web publication. This is absolutely related to technical side like what all things we do to reduce the load time of a web publication usually at the UI site so If you are a full-stack developer, you should be aware of this even though this he was a back-end developer It was asked to him So these were the questions from manager round here You can see have a look at the complete email that we have received. Hello This is Narendra having 5.3 years of experience. I have recently came across your channel and it's really helpful Even I would like to add something here below is my interview experience with TCS Three technical rounds were conducted through teams one manager round and one HR round just added lasted for couple of minutes Was offered a package of one 18 point 18 lakhs per annum didn't join as I have some other good offer below or the questions from Spring stack difference way to handle exceptions in spring MVC in deep discussion on dependency injection explained different benefits of swimming MVC Framework what is view resolver pattern notice the scope in reference to spring been what is the root application context in the spring MVC How it is loaded explain how an incoming request map to a controller and map to a method difference between Request param and path path variable explain the process of creating spring boot application using maven in deep discussion on different annotations that I have worked From Java stack explain about memory management explain about solid principle and where have you applied in your application? explain about The internal working of concurrent hash map lot of questions asked on multi-grading framework Few questions few programming questions based on streams like Java 8 streams here We'll send an email separate ask to write a program on singlet and any mutable difference between string string before and string builder From hibernate framework There were the questions where from the difference between JDBC and hibernate explain asked to explain about Hibernate architecture how to deal with database Did lock situation questions show on first level and second level cash explain about database shedding questions on how to One-to-one mapping like this basically the questions on one-to-one and many to many mappings from web services So what is the difference between HTTP and HTTPS? advantages of micro services or other what all things do you consider before creating a micro service application? What is the best way to communicate between different services best way to manage transaction? When multiple services are involved design a sample application like Amazon few questions on how to handle exceptions in micro services From manager round. How do you keep yourself updated about the new trends in the technology? What is what's the most recent thing that you have done given example of a project you have worked on and the Technologies involved. How did you make the choices? What are the same patterns are you aware of what is the programming challenge you have came across recently list some common ways to reduce load time of application Please hide my Hide my email Regards Narendra, please hide my identity. So this was the mail that we have received. This was a very long mail to be honest And if you are on a channel for the first time and wondering who are we and what we do? So basically we are a bunch of software engineers who attend interviews and share our real-time interview experiences with these videos and Apart from that we have we also share our interview experience of the Subscriber friends who share their interview experience with us so that we share it on our channel So that lot of like it reaches a bigger audience and bigger audience get the advantage of it And if you are wondering what are the company names that is getting printed? So these have these companies we have already shared on our channel You can visit and have a look you will definitely get benefit out of it And if you haven't subscribed us, please do subscribe like share Provide the feedback in the comment section you can share this video to other technical platforms as well so that it might help someone Who is looking out for similar kind of help? Thank you for watching. Have a great day and all the best

RailsConf 2014 - Writing Small Code by Mark Menard
|
Writing small classes is hard. You know you should, but how? It's so much easier to write a large class. In this talk we'll build up a set of small classes starting from nothing using a set of directed refactorings applied as we build, all while keeping our tests green. We'll identify abstractions yearning to be free of their big class cages. In the process we'll also see how basic patterns such as composition, delegation and dependency inversion emerge from using small objects.
Mark Menard is president of Enable Labs, a consulting firm, in Troy, NY specializing in large scale web and mobile app dev. Mark talks about Ruby and coding at conferences and user groups. Mark also gets his hands dirty doing construction work from time-to-time, and is a happy husband and father.

So many thanks to the organizers here at RailsConf. This is my first time talking at RailsConf. It's frankly kind of intimidating to be up here and see so many people out there. My name is Mark Menard. I'm going to be talking about small code today. And I've got a lot of code, about 79 slides, 137 transitions, not quite as much as Sandy had, but it's a lot to get through. So, okay, let's get going. So I'm just going to let this quote up there sink in. So, all of us have that file filled with code that you just don't want to open. As you heard earlier, maybe it's your user class. That class that has comments like, woe to ye who edit here. The problem with this code is that it does live forever. It encapsulates business logic that ends up getting duplicated elsewhere because no one wants to go in there and look at that code. It's also very hard to understand. I'm going to be talking about ways to avoid this situation. I'm going to be talking about code, code at the class level and the method level. Having small code at the class and method level is fundamental to being able to create systems that are composed of small, understandable parts. I'm going to add a few base concepts so we can start with a clean sheet and on the same page. I think there's a lot of problems with what people conceive of as small or well-designed code. It's not about the actual amount of code you write, but how the code is organized and the size of the units of code. Fundamentally, writing small code is really a design discipline because the only way you can write small code is use good design and refactoring. Design and refactoring the way we write small code. You can't just sit down and write small code perfectly well-designed code on the first draft. It doesn't work that way. It's an iterative process. So what do I mean by small? It's not about total line count. Well-designed code will typically have more lines of code than bad code. Just the overhead of declaring methods in classes is going to increase your line count. It's not about method count. Well-factor code is going to have more smaller methods. It's not about class count. Well-designed code is almost definitely going to have more classes than what I call undesigned code. Although I've seen some cases of over-obstraction, I find that's pretty rare unless someone goes pattern crazy. So small code is definitely not about decreasing the number of classes in your system. It's about well-designed classes that aren't poorly designed. So what do I mean by small? Small methods, small classes. Small methods are the foundation of writing small code without the ability to decompose large methods into small methods. We cannot write small code. And without small methods, we can't raise the level of abstraction. To write small code, we have to be able to decompose large classes into smaller classes and extract responsibilities out of them and separate them on a higher level and base them on higher level abstractions. It's important that our classes are small because small classes are what lead to re-usability and composability. So why should we strive for small code? Why is it important? We don't know what the future is going to bring. Your software requirements are going to change. Software must be amenable to change. Any system of software that's going to have a long, successful life is going to change significantly. Small code is simply easier to work with than large, complex code. If the requirements of your software are never going to change, you can ignore everything that I have to say here. But I doubt that that's the case. We should write small code because it helps us raise the level of abstraction in our code. It's one of the most important things we do to create readable, understandable code. All good design is really driving toward expressing the ubiquitous language of our problem domain in our code. The combination of small methods and small classes is going to help us raise that level of abstraction and express those higher level domain concepts. We should also write small code so we can effectively use composition. Small classes and small methods compose together well. As we compose instances of small objects together, our systems will become message-based. In order to build systems that are message-based, we have to use delegation and small composable parts. Small code makes small composable parts. It's going to help our software have flexibility and lead to a supplement over time and allow us to follow those messages and eventually we're going to see find our duct types. And all this is about enabling future change and accommodate the future requirements without a forklift replacement. So the goal, small units of understandable code that are amenable to change. Our primary tools are extract method and extract class. Longer methods are harder to understand than short methods. And most of the time we can shorten a method simply by using the extract method refactoring. I use this thing all the time when I'm coding. And once we have a set of methods that are coherent around a concept, then we can look to extract those into a separate class and move the methods to that new class. So I'm going to be using the example of a command line option parser that handles Booleans to start with and then we're going to see where the future takes us. So the command line, I want to be able to run some Ruby program dash v and handle Boolean options. That's where we're going to start. In my Ruby program, I want to define what options I'm looking for using this simple DSL. And then I want to be able to consume it like this. If options has and then a particular option, I do something, putting it all together. The DSL, the program at the top, the DSL and then how we actually consume that options object. Pretty simple. Here's my spec. It's pretty simple. It's true if the option is defined and it's present on the command line and it's false if it's not. So I run my specs and I get two failures. Yes, I used TDD. So here's my implementation that fits on one slide. Pretty simply, I store the defined options in an array and I store the arguments, the argv for later reference. Then I have a has method that checks to see if the options define if it's present in the argv. Then I've got my option method which implements my simple DSL. Nice and readable, fits on one slide, probably very comprehensible. So I run my tests, zero failures, they pass. I'm done. I get to go home until the future comes along. My workmate comes along and says, hey, I really like that library, but can we handle string options? Sounds pretty simple, pretty straightforward. So I think about that and I come up with a small extension to the DSL to just pass the second argument to option with a simple representation of the option type, string in this case. I also default to being a Boolean but I don't have to change the code that other people have done. So a string option, it's a little different than a Boolean. It actually requires content. So now I need the concept of validation. If a string option is missing the content, it's not valid, there's no string there. So then I'm going to normalize how I get the values out of both those string options and those Boolean options. You know that value, this is a change of the API but sometimes you actually need to break the API to enable the future. I'm doing it pretty early. I've only got one guy in my office using the library at the moment. So again, putting it all together, I can pass the options on the command line, I define the options with the DSL and here's how I use my valid and my value methods to find out if it's valued and get my values out. So now here's the class that implements it. Again on one slide, probably not as readable, probably not as comprehensible. We're going down what I call kind of the undesigned path. It's not too big, 31 lines, but it's got issues. It's got a method that's definitely large, one that's looking on the verge of being large. It's got for only handling Booleans and strings, it has quite a bit of conditional complexity in it already. And as we're soon going to see, it's not very amenable to change. So we're going to look at the pieces and how they work, just so you understand it. This might initialize method and create a hash to store the options because we have to store the type now, not just that we have an option, it's either Boolean or string. And the rest of the initialization is the same as it was before. And the valid method, we've got to iterate over the options looking to see which ones are strings. So we're doing checking on type here and checking to see whether they're present and they actually have content. Currently the string options are the only ones that need to validate. Boolean options, there's nothing really to validate. Either it's there or it's not, no validation, but strings we have to. And the value method, it does a lot of stuff. Just pretend for a moment this method is a black box. We're going to come back to it later because this is by far the worst code in this current example. But everything is specced and all my specs are green. So let's talk about methods because we've got some big ones and we need to clean them up. I call it the first rule of methods. Do one thing, do it well, do only one thing. Harkens back to that Unix philosophy of tools that you string together with standard in and standard out. But how do we determine if a method is actually only doing one thing? This is where your level of abstraction and the abstractions in your code come into play. You need to develop a feel for this over time that you want one level of abstraction per method. If all of our statements are the same level of extraction and they're coherent around a purpose, then I consider that to be doing one thing. Doesn't mean it has to be one line in a method. I can't tell you how many times I've looked at code and seen a comment on a method that was an excellent description of what the method did. If you just took those words, banged them together, they'd make a fantastic method name, but yet the method is named something else that isn't that descriptive. So use descriptive names. It's really critical. And the fewer arguments, the better. My personal goal is zero arguments on methods. One is okay, two or three. That's when I start to think I've probably missed an abstraction in my code and I should go back and look at it. Separate queries from commands. If a query is something and it looks like a query method and it changes the state of your object, it's hard to reason about. And people who consume your library will be confused by that. So separate those. And don't repeat yourself. I know Sandy talked about this earlier and it does take some judgment to know when it is time to remove the repetition, but you don't want to leave repetition over the long term because it will come back to bite you. So let's look at our methods. We've got repetition here. Both valid and value are digging through the argv array to find the options from the command line. This is a perfect candidate for an extract method extraction, refactoring. We have magic constants scattered around and those are a strong indication that we've missed something, an abstraction. We're violating some other rules. It's hard to say either of these methods is really doing one thing. The code is definitely not at the same level of abstraction. Valid is digging into the argv array and value is figuring out different divergent types and how to return their values. So now we're going to eliminate some of the repetition with an extract method refactoring. Extract method refactoring entails moving a part of a method into a new method with a descriptive name that's the naming part and then calling the new method. This refactoring helps us keep the level of abstraction consistent in the method we're extracting from. Here we have one expression and a method that's a high level of abstraction and two statements that are a low level of abstraction. So we move the less abstract code to a new method with a descriptive name and then we call the new method. This results in the old method having a consistent level of abstraction. So back to our command line options class. Both valid and value are digging through the argv collection to find the option value. So we're going to extract that code and get the raw value out of argv. Then we call the method from where the original logic was extracted. Pretty simple, but now the code left behind and valid in value says what I want, not how to do it. The how has been moved to the extracted method raising the level of abstraction just a little bit and valid and value. I'm going to do two more extractions. I've extracted the string option value method and the extract content method. The naming of the extracted methods is very important. They say what they do. But overall, I'm not happy with this code. It is more explanatory, but it's fairly complex and hard to understand. It's also not as small as it could be. The methods are large because I missed an abstraction. We're going to go find that now. I'm referencing the option type symbol to see if it's a string, which that's a big smell. Then there are the magic constants used to dig into the argv element to find the content within that particular string, the substring. If I was confident that I'd have no future added requirements for this class, I might leave this alone. It works. It's tested until my buddy comes to me and says, hey, I really like that library, but could we handle integers now? I could keep driving down this undesigned path I've been following and complicate the valid and value methods by switching on the type of the option and digging into those argv elements to find the value. But this is our chance to make a break and make our code more amenable to change. But to illustrate the point, I'm going to show you that undesigned method to show you the OO design actually matters. So we're going to look at that. This is the undesigned non-OO version of this code. Is it horrible? I'll leave that to you to decide. Is it small? In my opinion, definitely not. It is not small by any measure. The class is growing due to changes in specification. The valid and value methods are being changed in lockstep. That's a sure sign we've missed an abstraction or a duct type. And those methods are getting big and complicated, and now they're doing even more things. And we're just doing booleans, strings, and integers. Not that much. The code has tests. They all pass. That's good. But it's not satisfying. We've got those large methods and complex conditional logic. It's time to refactor now to make the change easy. And now we've got the tests that are back so we can do it without fear. And I want to call your attention to a pattern that clearly emerges when we go down the non-OO path here. We see checking the option type and divergent behavior based on the type. Don't reinvent the type system. If you have ducts, let them quack. In this example, the option types of boolean, string, and integer, those are our ducts. And I'll bet there's ducts in your code yearning to be free. And just to further confirmation that we're dealing with an abstraction or a duct, we see the testing of option type again in the value method. Hidden inside the valid and value method, there's a case statement here. It just didn't evolve that way as I was writing the code. I'm going to show you that. You're going to see that it's really clear now. Now it should be really obvious what the duct type is. If you have case statements like this in your code, you've missed an abstraction. Here again, we clearly see the duct type. Now, I would guess if I was writing this, as soon as I had the string type, I would have gone down the OO path. I just want to illustrate to you what an undesigned non-OO mess you can get yourself into. If you keep writing the horse until it's dead, my dad had a saying hanging on his wall in his office, when the horse is dead, get off. But sometimes we don't realize the horse is dead and we just keep trying to go. Now it's time to take a fresh look at this. So since classes are the fundamental organizational unit we have to work with, it's time to look at what constitutes a good class. Which principles are going to lead us to be able to write small classes? So how do we write small classes? To make small classes, I think, and it's not just my opinion, it's a lot of people's opinion, the most important thing we should assure is that our class has one responsibility and that it has small methods. All of the properties of a class should be cohesive to the abstraction that the class is modeling. If you have properties that you only use in one or two methods, that's probably something else that shouldn't be in there. Finding a good name for a class will also help us keep it focused on a single responsibility. I sometimes talk to the class. If you ever hear the concept of talking to the rubber duck or just explaining your problem to someone they don't even have to respond and he helps you figure it out, sometimes you just ask my class, hey class, what do you do? And if it comes out with a long list, you've got a problem. So the main tools we're going to use to create new classes from existing code, not from scratch, but from existing code is the extract class and move method refactorings which we're going to go through here. So those characteristics of a well-designed class, single responsibility, cohesive around a set of properties, additionally it has a small public interface that preferably handles a handful of methods at the most, that it implements a single use case if possible and that the primary logic is expressed in a composed method. That last one, I'm not going to be covering the composed method, that's a whole other talk, but you should check that practice out. It can really clarify code and make it much, much more understandable. So let's look at the code we should have been driving towards as soon as the string option type showed up. We're going to imagine right now that we have a clean sheet and we can write command line options the way we would have with the knowledge that we have now that needs to support Boolean, string and integer options. And remember, we have our tests at our back making sure that we don't break anything. And here was my first take at it on what I'd write. The class is 28 lines long. It is cohesive around the properties and we're done, most of the methods are going to deal with the hash of options and the array of args. It has a single primary responsibility. Manage a collection of option objects. So now we've introduced a collaborator. It also manufactures the option objects which I could extract to another class, but for the moment I'm going to leave it. If I find it hurts in the future, then I'll change it. That's my general rule, my guideline is I refactor when it hurts. When making a change hurts, that's the time to refactor. My command line option class has a small public interface. Just two methods, valid and value. And it has no hard-coded external dependencies yet. I could mess that up and introduce those, but we're going to avoid that. Another interesting characteristic of it is that there are no conditional statements in this class and we're going to keep it that way. In Sandy Metz's 2009 Garouko talk on the solid principles, she said something along the lines of a conditional in an OO language is a smell. And that's a really powerful statement. I don't think Sandy's saying that we can't use conditionals in our code, but that we use conditionals to hide abstractions, to hide our ducks. The first time I saw that talk, I don't even know if I heard her say it. It was when I went back and re-watched it. I thought, really? Then as the years have gone on and I've been working, I've gotten to the point where I agree with her. If you have a lot of conditionals in a class, you have probably missed a concept that should be extracted out of it. So the initialize and option method from our previous implementation carry over unchanged, except they're going to store the options in a hash instead of just the type. My valid method now simply asks all the options if they're valid, and the value method simply looks up the option, the hash, and asks it for its value. So now we need to build the options. We have to implement this. And this is where we're going to instantiate the objects that represent the Boolean string and integer options. So now we have the command-line-option class. We need collaborators. In order to get anything done, command-line-option needs option classes to manage. It's got to have those objects. So this is creating a dependency. And if we're going to create a dependency in our code, we can do it in a way that's amenable to change, or we can do it in a way that's going to make it hurt in the future. You don't want to depend, or excuse me, you want to depend on abstractions, not concretions. Depend on the duct type, not the concrete type. In our case, depend on the concept of an option, not on the concrete types that implement that abstraction. In our case, option is the duct type. This is the abstraction that I missed earlier when I just kept going down the conditional logic path. It's really simple. It has a valid method and a value method. String option, integer option, and Boolean option, those are the concrete implementation of the option abstraction. All they need is a valid and a value method and a consistent method of construction. And I can depend on the abstraction, not on the concretions. So how do I do that? I could go down the case statement road again and check the option type, instantiating the correct type of the option based upon the symbol. But I'm not going to do that, because that would tie our command line class to those concrete types, which we're trying to avoid. That creates a hard dependency between command line options class and those various classes. Instead, I'm going to use the dynamic capabilities of Ruby to instantiate those objects for us using naming conventions. For string, we're going to have a string option. For Boolean's Boolean option, et cetera. I can do this even in many static languages, so this isn't something that's specific to Ruby. And this very simple change takes our command line option class from depending on those concrete implementations and flips it to depending on the abstraction. This is dependency inversion from the solid principles in practice. Alternately, some other people have suggested you could use a hash and map from the string Boolean and integer symbols to the concrete classes, kind of like what Sandy did in her Gilded Rose Cotta solution earlier. That's okay, but it is an additional thing that I have to maintain over time. It's a reason to open the command line options file and change it if I have to add a new type of option. If using the dynamic ability of Ruby bothers you, then make a hash. Personally, I'm fine with using the dynamic capabilities of my language. So in my case, I've inoculated command line option class from needing to change to support new option types. At this point, this class should be closed for modification, but open for extension. So now we need to move the logic for the various option types to the appropriate option classes. I decided to make a base class of option for my concrete types to inherit from because the manner of the initialization needs to be the same for all of them. No sense of repeating that code. And the subtypes have a cohesion around the flag attribute and the wrong, excuse me, the flag and the raw value properties that are in the code. Here's the Boolean option. This one I just wrote because the requirements are so simple. Booleans are always valid, and they just return the raw value from the command line. If it's present, it's truthy. If it's nil, it's falsy. Very simple. But now we need to implement string option and integer option. And the logic for the validation and value extraction is in the old command line options class. So on the left are the original command line options, valid and value methods. On the right are those new string option and integer option classes. As you can see, the process of creating the option classes was simply picking apart and disassembling the old command line option class, moving the logic to where it belongs, using a combination of extract class and move method refactorings. We've really cleaned up the command line options. Frankly, there's not much code left there anymore. So now we can replace that nasty, hard-to-understand valid method with this and the large value method with this. To create the specs for the various option classes, I move the corresponding section from the command line option spec to the corresponding area for the particular type of option. And then lightly rework them, and then I work them from red to green as I went through the process of extracting those classes and moving the code to those methods. We've isolated abstractions here, and how do we do that? We separate the what from the how, like we've done in command line options. We want to move from code that looks like this to code that looks like this. The original command line options valid method contained all of the how. The refactored valid method says what we want done for us. That's it. All of the how has moved to the collaborators of our main class, in this case string option, Boolean option, and integer option. We want to move from code that looks like this to code that looks like this. Move the nitty-gritty details of your code out to the leaves of your system, and let the center be a coordinator. So, when we're done with this, this is what our command line options class looks like. These are our public methods. It provides a very small surface, and it fulfills the use case. And these are the private implementation crufts. It's necessary, but no one really needs to go poking around in here, just by declaring these methods private. They're for me, not for you. So, in the end, the sum total of the implementation of the public interface, and it's all delegated. All delegated. So, in the process of making the specs pass, I commented out that dreamed up code as I went through the process. And then one by one, I wrote the examples and uncommented the code, and made them pass working from red to green. Then, because nothing is ever really done, my buddy says, hey, any chance you could add the ability for me to pass an array of values for an option? So, to implement this new requirement, I only need the new array option class. So, I write a spec example, make it fail, then create the array option class, and I'm done. In this particular example, my option class is inheriting from the option with content superclass. And because I actually went through this and realized that strings, integers, and arrays all have content, so I extracted that superclass. And in this case, all I have to do is write the value method of that particular type, and I'm done. And it works. So, we now have a command line option class that's closed for modification, but open for extension. I could add float types, decimal types, other types of options, and I don't have to go back and touch that class again. We have small, easy-to-understand option classes that have a single responsibility. Oops, excuse me. We can... So, we have easy-to-understand option classes that have a single responsibility and easy-to-compose together with that command line option class. And we can simply create new option types and have them instantiate it by convention. My name is Mark Menard. My company's Enable Labs. We do full lifecycle business productivity and SaaS app development from napkin to production, as I say. And I'm gonna be around the conference, so let's gather and talk about some code. And we can do some questions.

Hey y'all what's up my name is Sonali welcome to my channel if you are new and if you are definitely hit that subscribe button I'm trying to get to 25,000 subscribers before November 25th which is my birthday. Also a lot of people comment that they have the same birthday as me which is actually crazy because I really haven't met many people the same birthday as me so comment down below if you guys are a Sagittarius or a Scorpio or are November babies. If you guys are already subscribed make sure to turn on your post notification bells for my videos so you guys can get notified every time I post. Today I'm going to be filming a Q&A I feel like it's well overdue so I asked you guys to ask me some questions on my Instagram stories and let's get into it. The first person asked for a health update and I feel like this is very fitting because I've been literally just non-stop posting food on my Instagram stories and I've actually been doing low carb for the past month or so right before I went on my weekend trip to Lake Travis but after that it's been going downhill I will say. I did cheat on my diet that weekend I was planning to going into it but after it I wanted to get back on the health grind and do the low carb diet again but I've not yet done it I've been posting like really just not healthy food on my Instagram stories but I will keep you all updated if I do start over because I still want to do a low carb snacks and meals video because even if you aren't doing a low carb diet it's always nice to have like lighter meals and snacks to kind of keep you full throughout the day. Another thing to update y'all on is that I did pause my orange theory for a second time for the first time and I did another 60 day pause. Like I said in the video that I told y'all I quit orange theory I like orange theory it's just the fact that I don't really want to wear a mask while working out and we did sign up for a lifetime we've literally been maybe like two or three times so we really need to get back into the workout grind and stuff Ryan's been running a lot actually I'm really proud of him I need to get into running but I've really bad chin splints and I'm a more of a treadmill runner and not like an outside runner so and plus it's like deathly hot here in Austin so I don't know how anyone runs outside Austin is a fit city in general so every time I go out there's always people running and I'm just like how how the next person asked do you have a two-year plan if so where do you see yourself I honestly don't have a two-year plan and I feel like a lot of people have goals and plans for themselves in the future but I don't I obviously know that there's certain things that I want to happen but I haven't like written down any goals or like made it like a manifestation kind of thing you know what I mean like obviously I would love to buy a house in the next two years or so I feel like that's the only thing I'm thinking about two years from now so yeah buying a house I guess someone asked what foundation I use and I use drugstore foundation y'all don't sleep on it it is the L'Oreal Pro Glow they also have a L'Oreal Pro Matte so that is great for people with oily skin I'm pretty dry or like normal dry so the L'Oreal Pro Glow is perfect for me and I want to say it's like $15 at the drugstore it's just crazy to me because I used to spend like $50 or more on foundation every couple of months in college because I always thought like oh I have to get my foundation from Sephora and like I was just such a brand stomp but y'all seriously this foundation is amazing if you guys try it out please let me know the next person asked did your boyfriend end up getting the Tesla so his lease is actually ending in February so he hasn't really decided yet I feel like he wants a different car every single day so I will keep you guys updated with that but I'll definitely let you guys know next year in 2021 crazy that this year is going so fast a lot of people are asking me where I got my hair colored and I went to Salon Mystique here in Austin and I got my hair done by Misty and Grace I actually posted an IGTV video about this but I'm getting a lot of people saying that they can't see my IGTV tab on my Instagram profile so let me know if you can't like DM me and I will literally just send you the video link but it is on my profile so go check it out hopefully you guys are able to see it they killed it seriously at first I was like kind of nervous just because of the baby highlights they were a little dramatic for me just because I don't really like dye my hair like this light but I'm actually so obsessed I will probably keep dyeing my hair something like this just because I love the dimension it gives my hair so I want to ask my ethnicity and I'm Indian my mom's Indian my dad's Indian and fun fact my name means golden child so yeah next question is where do you purchase most of your quarantine outfits and I feel like I've done quite a bit of hauls during quarantine which is horrible but my online shopping addiction has only grown since then my last order was from misguided and I highly recommend that place it is not super cheap but definitely more affordable than a lot of the things out there right now um but then obviously boo who is one of my go-to's it is on the cheaper side the quality is cheaper the prices are cheaper forever 21 online has some really good picks um I'm trying to think for jeans Zara I need to get some new jeans right now I'm obsessed with the light wash jeans that are like straight legged and like really loose looking I don't know it's just also really comfortable um so yeah those are a few stores that I've been shopping at someone asked me how did I learn photography and I mainly learned off of just random google articles or youtube videos I always recommend beginners starting on youtube and just learning the logistics of a camera when you're first starting out it is kind of like hard to grasp it does take a while to like memorize everything oh hello but as time goes on your work will only get better and photography is so much fun so I recommend everyone try it out the next question is where did you audition to be a part of the skims collection so I didn't audition it's kind of like weird how it worked out basically I had this one photo on my instagram in a skims like scoop neck bra that I posted when I did my skims haul like this was like last summer or something they ended up really liking the photo like at first they asked me if they could post on their stories and then they asked me if they could use it in their email marketing and then they emailed me and asked to use it in their paid marketing campaigns and I was like what is so great about this photo I'll post this photo here just so you guys can see it I just felt like they had so many other influencers posting in their products and their apparel I was just like why me in my apartment like leaning against my couch I was so shook then I emailed the same girl back I basically said like I really love the branch because I love skims I love Kim Kardashian I asked them if they needed me to create content around their products or like an upcoming launch and I was really lucky because everybody fits collection was just coming out so she sent me a couple pieces from that line and I shot in them and they post me on their story and I was just really exciting because skims is a pretty big brand and I'm hoping and I'm thinking that Kim Kardashian saw my freaking face so that's pretty cool the next person asked me what age do you want to get married and why I want to get married by like 25 and a half because by 26 I'm getting kicked off my parents insurance right now I have a part-time job and I don't know how long I'll be working with them but I would like to have the option to get on to Ryan's insurance so I have to be married by 26 I'm currently 23 about to turn 24 in November so hopefully hopefully you know soon I don't know it's weird to say this is so weird I feel like I'm a child when you're married I feel like it's over you're kicked out of the kids table at Thanksgiving so it's just a weird feeling I don't want to get old next question is have you thought about only doing YouTube full-time good question because I have thought about it and it is not sustainable for me because I don't have that many subscribers and I really don't make that much from YouTube like maybe if I put in a lot more effort I always think this like literally every night I'm just like damn I should be doing this this and this and this and I could probably be making so much more money from it and growing my following that way but there's just not enough time in the day for me to like relax after my part-time job and it's also weird because my part-time jobs also like video editing content creation photography and then I have my freelance stuff which is you know videography and photography and then I have my YouTube which is videography and editing so it's all the same which is awesome because I can use my camera for everything it's a great investment and I obviously do what I love every single day within all of these jobs that I do but I do get burnt out quite a bit like very often so I've definitely thought about just doing only YouTube but also when I first moved to Austin Texas I didn't have a job for like a good like six months eight months I can't remember so I had all that time to you know focus on my YouTube grow my following but I literally was so lazy and I mean obviously I was kind of just like in a weird funk because I wasn't getting a post-grad job like I was supposed to be but also I wasn't using that time wisely and I feel like if I'm not you know being pushed to do stuff every single hour of the day like things are just not going to get done I just work better when I'm busier does that make sense so right now it's no but hopefully later on it could be an option let me know if you guys are interested to see kind of like the back end of the YouTube business side I really want to make more videos about monetizing your YouTube channel and like how much I make from YouTube I personally think all that is super interesting I know this one YouTuber her name is Natalie Barbu and she does a lot of videos like that being super transparent and I think it's really cool I think it's very interesting to know how much these YouTubers are making and what the potential could be if you guys are interested in YouTube so comment down below if you guys want to see that video the next question is how did you get into influencing do you have a degree for marketing I do not have a degree in marketing um Ryan actually has a degree in marketing but he's doing sales right now um but my major is radio television so that doesn't really relate because it was like radio ads and news anchor kind of things like it doesn't I don't know it's kind of weird I feel like I got a lot of my experiences outside of the classroom and you know from networking and doing things on campus for example I was a social media ambassador for UCF so I got a lot of on-camera experience with them and then just doing my own thing um I obviously started my youtube channel in 2013 and from that point I was starting to make tutorials and linking my outfits below and all that so I feel like that's really when I got into influencing I honestly just find it really funny because in high school I would post selfies of myself every single day which you know looking back on it was kind of weird but I definitely got made fun of for it and now those same people that made fun of me I feel like they want to be like an influencer and there's nothing wrong with that and obviously people's opinions change and you know being an influencer being a youtuber whatever is so normalized now which thank god seriously thank god for that because now I can just be myself and like bring my camera out wherever but I just find it funny you know the last question on this q&a is have you and Ryan been fully together since high school or have y'all taken breaks so we have actually been fully together ever since was it 2013 no one was sophomore year yeah I feel like I think it was 2013 no I don't know okay we've been together for seven years and something months our anniversary is on January 7th we have never taken a break which is actually insane sometimes I look back at photos of us in high school and it's just so weird that we've known each other throughout all the awkward and weird stages of our lives that are upset this q&a but before you guys click off this video I need y'all to do me a huge favor please comment down below a video idea or something that y'all want to see on my channel because I'm running dry on video ideas and really need y'all's help and obviously I make these videos for you guys too so I definitely want your input if you guys want to keep up with my everyday life you can follow me on instagram it is at so underscore gnarly without the g and I will see y'all in the next video bye

I love browsing the web, but sometimes the experience can be frustratingly slow. I wish the browser could help with that. The BF Cash should help with that. The what? The BF Cash, or Back Forward Cash. When you navigate away from the page, the browser keeps the old page around in the background for a short period. So if you need to go back, it's available instantly. Oh nice, so how does that work? By restoring the fully rendered page from memory, you see if having to re-render the page from scratch. Or, worse still, having to go back to the network to re-download some resources that aren't cached. Here's a video of the BF Cash in action to help you understand the speed up it can bring to navigations. And you'd be surprised how often you do this when navigating the web. 10 to 20% of navigations are Back Forward Navigation for many websites. Would you like to make up to 20% of your page visits load faster? Instantly even? Definitely. So does the BF Cash get used automatically? Almost. The BF Cash is used by default without websites needing to do anything to enable it. However, websites can use certain features or APIs that prevent it from being used. And that's where DevTools can help. Oh, great. We love hearing DevTools tips. Tell us. When Chrome introduced the BF Cash, we also gave you a number of tools to help you understand it. First up, we added a test to DevTools in the application panel. Click on that inviting blue button and you'll see a brief flash as Chrome navigates away to a terms of service page and then back. It will check if the page was restored from the BF Cash or had to be loaded again from scratch. Here you can see it was restored. Great. Your users are getting an instant experience as they navigate back and forward around your site. However, if we try this other site, you can see there's a problem. And the DevTools test helpfully lists the reasons why. In this case, the problem is that the page uses an unload handler. That means the page executed some code when the page is being unloaded. And so Chrome decides it's best not to restore the page from the BF Cash afterwards, as the page might not be expecting to be restored. There are a number of other APIs like this that prevent the browser from using the BF Cash. Nice. That is a great testing tool. Yes, it is. And it only takes a second to run. Try it on your website now and see if you have any reasons preventing you from using this great browser optimization. Hmm. It seems so simple. Are there anything else we should know? Well, extensions can also add unload handlers to a page or other APIs that can block BF Cash usage. So best test this in a guest profile or using incognito mode. Good to know. So is that it? Well, we're just getting started. There are more tools by the Chrome team as added. Lighthouse also includes this test. When you run a Lighthouse audit from DevTools, you may also recently have noticed that flash to the terms page. That's because Lighthouse also does the same test and warns you if it fails. And as well as these lab tools, we have a not restored Reasons API, which allows you to collect all the reasons for all your pages in the field from actual users. That's fantastic. Thanks, Barry. So tell me, what are the common reasons that prevent the BF Cash from being used? The two main reasons are pages using Cash Control No Store or unload handlers. The Chrome team are looking at both to see if they really should prevent BF Cash usage in future. But in the meantime, sites can fix this themselves. Setting No Store in your Cash Control header is a strong directive to the browser not to store it. This should be used for pages that contain personal and private information. For pages that you just want to be reasonably fresh, use Cash Control No Cash, or even better, a short cash time, both of which still allows the BF Cash to be used. Unload handlers are the other most common reason preventing BF Cash usage. Unload handlers have a lot of other problems as well, especially on mobile. So Chrome is looking to deprecate unload handlers and allow the BF Cash to be used in these cases. We already do this on mobile, as do all other browsers. And we're looking to do the same on desktop in the future. For sites that don't use unload handlers, they can enforce this with their permission policy, which is an HTTP response header sent with a document response. If you try and add an unload handle to this site, even in the console, the page won't let you. This is a good way of locking in the fact that you don't use unload handlers and also prevents extensions from adding them and thus slowing down your website. A quick tip for this one, you can overwrite HTTP response headers to test this out. Let's add a permission policy header to prevent accidental use of unload handlers on our site. Now, when we try to add an unload handler in the console, we can't. That's really neat. Permissions policy is a great way of preventing unload handlers creeping back onto your site, or from extensions adding them and slowing your website down. Oh wow, what a great review of BFcache and how you can use DevTools to debug them. Thank you, Barry. No problems. You're welcome. And I hope that helps. And please comment below if you have any questions on this. Alright, that's all. Go to this link to learn more. See you for the next DevTools Tips. Ciao!

Barcelona with a safe motion and hello so who are you my name is Andreas from safe motion safe motion is a service on based on the omate smartwatch service in an area of telecare loan worker market and for children also so this is the omate smartwatch and what did you do to it so it took the omate smartwatch which was the first Android smartwatch that you actually was was good quality for us we produced the safe motion software which is also integrated in lots of call centers lots of big and systems we added the service of racing alerts yeah let me show you on this watch first of all a nice very nice watch here with the safe motion branding bar but omate we have the red button here to raise alerts and here we are just a standard lock so what we did with this watch is for the telecare children loan worker area we added the possibility to raise alerts these alerts are going to an alerting chain from up to 10 people at the end of the alerting chain people can decide if they're not reachable or their workloads and only if at home the workloads they want to call center to answer alerts so they can add the call center integrated lots of call centers all over Europe also in the biggest call center of Europe or bellow in UK they have 200,000 clients another feature we offer is the calendar it's reminders like an elderly area for example it could be a reminder to take medications or even to go to sleep like people forget to go to bed to drink water yes this is the reminder so that and the next feature is the phone so we give you we offer in our service we include the roaming sim card so you don't need to buy your own sim card our service includes the sim card roaming sim it roaming sim is always takes the strongest network which is the safest way for an alerting watch roaming sim what does that mean everywhere roaming sim all over Europe all Europe all Europe in Rome's in all networks phone calls phone calls data and data yeah what data do you do well you don't we just you can use all our services and you will never achieve the maximum data because we include the data that you need as much as much as you want but it's thought you know we don't allow videos you know you're not into YouTube so you can't use more videos more data that so what are the services other services you have so other services call out you can call out people can call in as well right just push one button to have pre let me show you how an alert works so in case you fall like an elderly carrier in me a daily carry area you fall down you're on the floor or maybe outside it's the same so it works outside as well you go for shop you walk home no one is there you fall down you raise the alert the watch vibrates for three seconds the alert is raised right so what happens is now the alerting chain is contact that means it goes to the mobile phone okay and you can have a chain of mobile phones you can have a little change up to 10 answer directly they can call back yeah you can have 10 people they call you back what you can do also and that's the interesting thing about this watch is it's not the standard product it's a configurable product so all these bubbles that you see there right you can go to the portal you can go to the helpers portal you can switch all these bubbles off you can switch them on you can put a direct call number the black button you can call like it could be there you can put another recall on the red button it could be mom for example so you can decide they want this back button to be a direct call exactly yeah all right so it's fully configurable it's also integrated in lots of backend systems so if some partner comes up to us here I want to I want some integration alone worker markets very interested for CCTV camera system for example they ask us to integrate the positioning data for loan workers that's what we did it can do positioning we do positioning exactly in case of alert we have one hour of tracking you can also switch on tracking permanently so we can use GPS for tracking permanently because you can use the wireless LAN hotspots as the big difference of a sundry smartwatch it just it doesn't just use GPS it uses also wireless LAN hotspots it's a Android smartwatch in the background is an Android smartwatch but on top it's our care service is the service for personal alarm which is the most important thing I think for the smartwatch industry make it a simple exactly even the latest Android where two seems complicated exactly you don't want to be when you're in yeah no one no one is more screen no one will find the ops they want to find also in the case of an alert you don't want to search around for your phone number just press the red button how it goes so you there could be a dangerous skiers and people walking the mountains and people have a special needs they could just use it like that ask you to configure it specially for what they need absolutely for the vulnerable people no problem we also tested it for the sports area of course you need reception that it works but it's how it is with a sim card and yes we're like we got lots of partner requests we're now available in Germany we're available in UK we have will be soon available in Norway Belgium in Netherlands Italy so very excited about this we got any good price yes the price the PTC price is 249 with a monthly subscription as well subscription is 4090 and it includes the full sim coverage it includes the the whole service of the web portal and 14 90 it's cheap idea by area prompt device you get included how much the device extra subscriptions extra devices to 49 subscriptions 49 thank you

Classroom Aid - Saturn’s Northern Lights
|
Text http://howfarawayisit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/2018-Review.pdf
In this 2018 review we’ll see the northern lights on Saturn: a new asteroid landing close to Earth; the ghost of Cassiopeia; new information on the stars at the center of our galaxy; and more. We’ll also cover the second GAIA data release on 1.7 billion stars. We’ll then go beyond the galaxy to see a wide variety of galaxies and galaxy clusters. We’ll see a single star 9 billion light years away.
Our deep dive this year is a close look at Brown Dwarfs: what are they; how do they form; and where do they fit between high mass planets and low mass stars; and we’ll take a look at a few of them.

You'll recall that we covered Earth's aurora borealis in our segment on the heliosphere. The magnetosphere routes solar wind-charged particles to the poles that collide with the atmosphere there. The green and red colors are produced by excited oxygen and nitrogen atoms, respectively. Magnetospheres, and therefore auroras, exist on other planets in our solar system as well. Magnetospheres, using the Hubble Space Telescope, have taken a series of spectacular images featuring the fluttering auroras at Saturn's north pole. The observations were taken in ultraviolet light, and the resulting images from the excited hydrogen atoms provide us with the most comprehensive picture so far of Saturn's northern aurora.

Hjalfi changes the language on a Canon Typestar 210 thermal typewriter
|
In which yr hmbl svt plays with, takes the lid off, and reconfigures a 1991-era Canon Typestar 210 thermal typewriter.
This machine is a battery-powered typewriter which will print either onto thermal paper or using a carbon transfer ribbon (I have two). It produces rather good output in a choice of two extremely 1990s fonts. It uses a very nice Matsushita prong over membrane keyboard, which are smooth, light linear switches with a full-sized ISO layout --- although the keymap is bonkers. This is the German model, but the language is adjustable by changing the configuration straps on the motherboard (I demonstrate).
It's based around a Toshiba TLCS90 CPU with 8kB of RAM. This is a fascinating processor which I'd never heard of before which is a better Z80: Toshiba took the existing Z80 and added a tonne of addressing modes and instructions, making it elegantly orthogonal and, by initial looks, very nice to use. I've dumped the Typestar's ROM and written a disassembler for
it, and I may be able to make this machine do something cool eventually.

I have a new typewriter. This Bayhemoth, which only just fits onto my workbench under the camera, is a Canon Typestar 210 battery-powered thermal typewriter. You can probably tell by the way it says, Canon Typestar 210 on the top. I got this for 10 francs from my favorite shop which sells things other people have thrown away. I love these things. Not so much to use, but just the general aesthetic and the way they work. This one in particular, it's got this delicious, light, linear keyboard. I already have one, actually. One of these, an S70, which you notice is quite a bit smaller than the 210. This has, the keys are also linear, but they've got just a little touch of tactility to them at the bottom. I have converted this one to a USB keyboard, but I'm not going to do that to this one. So before we open it up, let me just give you a quick tour of it working because it is completely flawless. It runs off six volts and draws bad an amp, and annoyingly, the polarity on the plug is center negative, which I discovered too late, but luckily it didn't actually destroy the machine when I plugged it in the wrong way around. So it's very simple. We insert some paper, we type something, and it prints it, and I will wait for this to finish and I will remove this to give a better view of the works. So it has successfully printed, my typing isn't so great, in a rather nice high-resolution Courier 10-point font. The way it works is it's got a carbon transfer ribbon and a thermal print head, which is this little metal thing here. The head heats up and pulls carbon off the ribbon and sticks it onto the paper. You get to use the ribbon once. When you use it, it records permanently onto the ribbon everything you have typed before, so dispose of your ribbons carefully. I believe that this ribbon is very nearly brand new and there is a cunning compartment on the bottom where a second ribbon can be stored, which appears to be unused. So I was in luck there. I actually believe, judging from how clean this is and how little wear there is anywhere, that this thing has been barely used. I could open up the ribbon and see what people typed, but I won't be doing that on camera. Now, as you can tell, this is very much the German model with the quartz keyboard and all the accented modifier keys. Because it is a thermal dot matrix printer, it's got an enormous character set, including all the accented characters. You can see the huge numbers of symbols here, but we can also hit this button and I can't quite tell whether it works on camera, but if I lift it up like this, you can see on the little LCD display all the other characters you can pick. This is the character picker. Unfortunately, this thing has a very narrow angle of view and it doesn't appear to be adjustable unlike the S70. So either I can see it or you can see it. So let's get back to the typing. The way it normally works is that you type. You see the text you're typing here. When it reaches the end of the line, it flushes it out to the paper. I have actually been fiddling with this previously, which is why the margins are quite narrow, but let's just move the head over. I need margin release. So let's put that about here. Set the right margin. There should be a button to take me back to the beginning, but I'm not sure what it is. I think just pressing this will set the left margin. Yeah. Maybe it's this. Nope, that's microstep left. Well, just do it the long way. So let me just type a long sentence. Z and Y are swapped on German keyboards. There we go. As you can see, it is not the quickest printer in the world, but it does produce rather good results. You get a choice of two different fonts. So if I switch it to the other one, which is this, you get the famous script font, which anyone who's used one of these type stars will recognize. So let me type the same thing again. The beep you heard was a warning that I'm approaching the right-hand margin. This is a holdover from the old days of typewriters where there was an actual bell that rang when the carriage reached the end. So it has actually managed to fit all of that onto one line. Let me just wind up a bit to get a better look. Yes, that's a very interesting font. Anyway, going back to Courier 10, there's a wide variety of different effects you can have. This one where you can change the size if I hit four and then type something. So it is not quite as cool as the pen plotter typewriters that you could get, which would draw in multi-colors with a ballpoint pen moving it around in two dimensions, but it is still pretty cool. There's a whole bunch of other features, programmable tab stops, line spacing, justification in various different ways. In fact, I have it set to full justification, which I should probably change. Remember how I think this is this one? Yep. There are status indicators here that you won't be able to see that tell you what's currently set. This is the caps lock button complete with an LED. Interestingly, it doesn't toggle. Instead, you press Shift to turn it off again. All the commands are controlled by these two code and mode buttons, and there's a handy reference here to tell you what they all do. That's basically it. Oh, other features. Let's put this back to normal mode. Let's check that, yep. If I set it to instead of lined at a time mode to instant mode, whenever I press a key now, it will print it quite slowly. Luckily, there's a buffer. If I make a typo, I can press the delete key and then an interesting thing happens. If you notice that X has vanished from the paper more or less, what it's done is it's lifted up this blade here and has scraped the carbon off the paper back onto the ribbon. Unfortunately, you can't use it again. You can actually see here that the ribbon is not in terribly good nick because it's pretty old. Now, because it's a thermal printer, we can actually remove the paper completely, take the ribbon out and insert. I'm trying to drop it. My role of 1980s era thermal paper. Now, I'm trying to remember what side of it has actually got the thermal coating. Let's try it this way around. Let's just feed it. This paper is coated with a material which, when it gets hot, goes black and then fades slowly to brown over time. Let's put the carriage back at the beginning and type something. Oh, good. That was, in fact, the right side of the paper. That works absolutely fine with no ribbon in it. You can still get thermal paper today. This stuff is about 40 years old. The only problem with it is that these days it's only really used in things like cash register tills. So buying less than about a kilometer of thermal paper is quite hard. But if I ever run out of these cartridges, I can at least fall back to that stuff. It does go brown slowly over time and tends to be a bit curly. But one of the really interesting things about this is what's inside. So let me just unplug it all and take the lid off. I've already removed the screws. And I'll show you. So it is fastened together with plastic clips which, as you may have gathered, I am not really a fan of. But once you open it up, you get this nice little single-sided board which miraculously is actually labeled. So we have here the ROM which is socketed. It is even marked as 2 megabit ROM. Over here is the memory for it which is 64 kilobits of SRAM or 8K. Sadly, that's not very much. And I spent ages looking for the CPU. I originally thought it was this thing on the other side of the board. But it actually turns out to be this enormous chip which is a CPU architecture I have never even heard of before. This is a TMPC 90, the 9841. It is a Toshiba Z80 retread. It's not a Z80 clone. It uses a very similar instruction set. But they changed it in a lot of ways. They've added a whole lot of new addressing modes. 16-bit operations and other cool features. And have rearranged the binary encoding completely. So I believe it is source compatible with Z80 code but will not run pre-assembled Z80 code. Now the fact that this is a processor that is fairly well known and the OS is on ROM means that with luck I should be able to remove the ROM replace it with an existing EEPROM that I have and run my own code on this machine. I'm still not quite sure what this would be useful for but it would be cool. So one thing I want to do, which I will do now if I can find a screwdriver is I just want to take a look at the other side of the board. These boxes here represent chips on the other side. So I looked this one up. It's a gate array. It will contain a whole lot of custom logic. I don't know what it's for. I don't know how to read these things or how to understand them even if you could. It could be to do with the LCD. By the way, I'll show you the bottom of the keyboard. There's the metal backplate for the keyboard. This is the LCD module, which has a completely standard LCD controller chip. So this will be a parallel port which will send commands to the LCD controller chip. And that will then display stuff on the screen. I got the LCD controller working on this thing so I expect it to be very similar logic. This has, I think, an 8-character display. It's a standard HD-Wattsit character cell display. Now, it feels like it's... Oh, there's a screw here. The printer mechanism is run by two stepper motors, one of which is in here and the other of which is... You can just see it peeking out there. Both of which are pretty large and meaty. The printhead itself, because it's thermal, actually uses quite a lot of power. This thing consumes an amp when it's printing at 6 volts. I don't know how long the 5D cells would last, but I suspect not terribly long. Oh, there's a clip there. So what have we got on the bottom? Not a lot. This is... This is the gate array. These two glue chips, they're connected to the... This is the printer interface. Could be stepper motor controllers. They seem quite small for that kind of power transistor, but they're connected here, so they're clearly something to do with the printhead. And this is the CPU. One of the things I'm interested in is that some of these pins are actually a UART. And I will actually just go and look up which ones. So the UART, there's two of them, is pins 59 to 56 of this gigantic 64 pin chip. So 64, 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57, 56. These four here. Now what are they connected to anything? 64, 63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58, 57, 56. I see that these two, which are the receive pins, are tied together. These, that's tied to that. Now the pins up here are things like CTS and RTS. I'll have to go look up what they are. Interesting. This is one of the transmit lines. That's tied to this linkage that then connects to something over here. There are some solder pads, but they don't actually seem to be much on the other side. These connect to these two. There's another linkage over here, and that's why it's down. Okay, so it's obviously using one of the transmit lines to control the printer. I wonder if these two chips here are the entire printer interface. And the CPU prints things by just sending commands to these. I'll have to go and look up those chips. That would be nice because it means that I can print stuff without needing to control all the stepper motors manually in software, which is what I originally thought it was going to do. Anyway, the next thing I want to do with this is to remove that EEPROM and attempt to read it. Oh yeah, the other UART, I think it's not used. It looks like the pins are tied to ground or at least something else. So I might be able to isolate those and use them for debug IO. The instruction set itself looks really rather interesting. It's got lots of useful addressing modes for doing things with 16-bit values. Like you can actually do proper 16-bit arithmetic now. It's got ADD SUB and all the ALU operations work 16-bit wide on the HL register. It's got direct page support for accessing built-in RAM up at the top of memory. It's got a stack relative addressing mode. It's got all kinds of useful things for writing compilers with. You can actually transfer 16-bit registers in a single instruction now. So I might do some impromptu tooling for that and then see if I can make my CalGold compiler generate code for this thing. And I will try and put some on an EEPROM and see what happens. But yes, the first thing I want to do now is to remove this ROM chip, stick it in my ROM reader and dump it. I don't have any way to lever this side because all this plastic's in the way. Okay, let's take the board out again. The processor supports 16-bits of address bus for reading code programs, but 20-bits of address bus for reading data. The IX and IY registers have been expanded to be 20-bits wide. So this 2-megabit ROM will contain 64K of code that will be probably mapped down the bottom plus huge amounts of data which are probably the font tables used for printing. Now it would be nice if there was more RAM. 8K is not a lot for running a real operating system. I might be able to get CPM on it if I was willing to reassemble CPM to the new instruction set. Of course, I wouldn't be able to run any CPM software, so kind of not very useful. But I'm sure there are going to be interesting things to do with it, even just to play with the instruction set, which sounds really quite interesting. And one thing I could do with it is, if that second UART is unused, stick a socket on the back and turn it into a printer. There we go. One ROM. So now I get to put the board back on for real. The board itself, as you can see, is single-sided and looks pretty easy to deal with. Oh yeah, I'm not going to put it on because I spotted this, which is the table telling you what all the configuration straps do. And these are these diodes. So all the diodes are in place except for B. And the configuration where B is open is the German model. So if I were to take one of those diodes off, and if I take this top diode off and put it in this position here, I should be able to reconfigure this as a UK model typewriter. So, I am actually going to give that a try now. Okay, so the soldering iron is hot. I've had a look at the board. It actually looks like there were originally four diodes and somebody just chopped off diode B, which actually makes a certain amount of sense. They make all the boards of all four diodes in place and then modify them later to avoid having multiple configurations. So I'm actually going to have to desolder the stub pins. Try and actually get this thing reasonably stable. That didn't work. I'm going to have to desolder the stub pins and the diode that I want to remove. And I might actually put in a new diode rather than try to solder in the old one. Okay, that's the wrong diode. Let me put that solder back again. This one I want to remove. Yeah, you can see the pin move when the solder melts. The other thing I could do is just stick a new diode in that hole. That would turn it into a US model. But let's try and make it British. Ah, the wire has in fact fallen out all the way through. It'll be in here somewhere. I will find that and remove it later. Okay, now I want to remove bottom one. So let's try and take the solder out. The state of the configuration straps will be read on start up when you turn the machine on. Okay, and then use to configure things like key maps and the language used for the messages. One annoying thing about the German keyboard layout is that you can't get all the UK symbols simultaneously. So you can't get an apostrophe and a question mark without reconfiguring the keyboard between each character. Now I do know that German users, apostrophes and question marks are not entirely certain what's going on there, but it's a pain when typing in English. The ends of the components have all been hooked over to make them stay in place while soldering them down, which makes them really awkward to unsolder. It has actually come undone. There we go. That's fallen off. It is there. Okay, so we have one diode. Let's just clean that up a little. And that needs to be put into whole B. Let me just double check that's the right way around. It is. And then we apply a little solder and we should be done. Now that pin needs a bit more. Okay. So we should now be ready to stick the ROM back in, reassemble this all and try and see if it works. However, I'm actually going to take a short break off camera to go and dump that ROM now that I've removed it because I don't want to plug it in and take it out too often. So let me just do the screws up and I shall go and do that. So, ROM dumping break. Okay, that took rather longer to dump than I originally thought. The label on the top, in fact, has no relation to what kind of ROM it is and eventually I had to guess. But I did get quite a lot of data. I think 256K out intact. It says it's a two megabit ROM. So two, one megabit half. Yeah, that makes sense for the size. So let's plug this back in. Yeah, eventually I just had to guess at a ROM model. I gave it the standard ROM pin out and it complained that the ID didn't match but it read. So good. So that is now plugged back in. We now need to reconnect the keyboard. I have this cable for the LCD. Actually, I'll do these ones first. These cables are for the keyboard. I think one of them is probe and the other is sense. This thing is very, very awkward. I don't like these connectors much either. They tend to go brittle and there. Or there's always a risk damaging the cable when you plug them in. Okay. I'm not going to reassemble it completely. I want to see what happens first. Plug in the power, turn on. Well, it still works, which is a good sign. Put the knobs back on. At least one of them. Okay, so the line mode. Line mode. Yep, that is now a Y key Z. Okay, numbers work. Yep, what about the shifted numbers? That's an asterisk. Okay, that's a very strange layout. And it now occurs to me that you won't be able to see what's on the LCD. So let's print that. So here we have the shifted numbers. An asterisk over one. I wonder what you get over here. Equals. Plus. Okay. Cube and two. Our underscore. Exclamation mark. Semi-colon, colon. Okay, that one makes sense. N sedilla and yeah, N sedilla. Quarter one eighth. Comma, good question mark. Dot twice. Half percent. That's deeply peculiar. Okay, let's put this into, set that to keyboard one and see if we get the same thing. Yeah, that looks the same. Let's try keyboard two. Yes, well, I have no idea what they were thinking of there. This is nothing like a standard layout of any description. This is actually set to English. Okay, that's an English message. It says title there, which is good. Let's try font. There's actually very few messages in here. That's bold. That's underline. Justification. Okay, top margin six. Yeah, this is now in English. Well, if I do manage to blow my own ROM, I could at least try and figure out where the key maps are and change them. But anyway, we have successfully changed the language of the machine, read the ROM. I know that works. So yeah, I think that's about all I can do today. The next step is to try and disassemble the ROM and see if it makes sense because, you know, I might have just read it incorrectly. I did go through it and there's quite a lot of strings, including, interestingly enough, a complete letter by Dr. Livingston in three different languages. I assume there's a test mode that you can enable somehow. Let's just try. Interesting. These obviously do something. Anyway, I'm going to call it there and put this thing back together and go and take a look at the ROM. I hope you enjoyed this rather scrappy video. Please let me know what you think in the comments.

And I guess we can go. Hello everyone and welcome to another virtual vision seminar. We are very happy to see you all live with us every week and have to say I'm very glad to see more and more people from different fields joining us. Lately it's true we have been hosting talks on eventable visions and in consequence it has enlarged our classical audience. So welcome to you all. And that is actually a great opportunity for me to remind you that these talks are part of the worldwide neuroinitiative. It is basically a platform where neuroscientists share their work and insight on their respective fields. And yeah, we have to keep doing that until we can finally meet in person and go on conference. So do pay your visits to the worldwide neural website. There are tons of talks already uploaded as podcasts and there's still many more to come. So as usual, you will find all the relevant links in the description. Today we continue discussing inverted brain vision with Nathan Morhouse. Nathan Epstein is PhD from the Arizona State University where he worked with Ron Rytowski on interactions between female choice and nutritional ecology in butterflies. He then went to France for a couple of years and they joined the Institute of Research for the Biology and Insect Intour where he studied the evolution of seasonal polyphenism in butterflies again. He finally returned to the US as an associate professor at the University of Pittsburgh before moving his research group to the University of Cincinnati in Ohio in 2016. Over there, his research group studies the evolution of vision and visual signaling in butterflies and ducking spiders. So hello, Nathan. Thanks for being with us today. How are you doing? I'm doing great. I'm doing great. It's a sunny day here in Cincinnati and it's springtime. So nothing to complain about. The stage is yours. All right. Thanks, Maxime. I really appreciate the opportunity to share with you and others some of the research that we've been doing over the past few years to understand the evolution of looking and seeing and jumping spiders. You get my pointer going here. We should see a laser pointer. Great. Excellent. So as Maxime said, I've been studying the visual ecology and evolutionary ecology of butterflies and more recently jumping spiders. And my lab is particularly interested in how these animals navigate their world based on what they can see. But I want to take a step back for a moment and think about the broader picture of what we're doing as scientists studying this kind of diversity. This weekend, I started David Attenborough's life in color. And I was struck, as I'm sure anybody is who watches that, by the exuberance of biodiversity shown in that series and particularly things like birds of periodite. Repeatedly you get caught up when you talk about biodiversity. It stimulates human curiosity in a way that's hard to put a finger on really. We really just want to understand what is going on here and what is this male doing? How is the female reacting to this? What can she see? Of course, it feels intuitive that his colors and display are playing some important role in the lives of these animals, helping him to convince her to mate with them, et cetera. At the basis of this curiosity is a fundamental question that my lab seeks to answer, which is how does biodiversity arise and change over time? And when we set out to study this large question, we oftentimes do gravitate towards groups of animals like the birds of paradise, because we have this intuition that there's something special going on here, that the rapid diversification of color traits and motion and pattern must be driven by some fundamental mechanism that we can see when we focus on them. But of course, when we choose a group like the birds of paradise, we choose to overlook other groups that actually even inhabit the same environments. For example, these frog mouths, which cohabitate with those birds of paradise, something entirely different is going on with this group. This is actually three different species of frog mouths here. And unless you were a hardcore birder and ornithologist, you'd be hard pressed to tell them apart. So even though they're in the same place in the world, they're experiencing different selective pressures. So if I think about this in cartoon form, here is a cartoon evolutionary tree where you have some groups, for example, like the birds of paradise, rapidly radiating in terms of their biological diversity. Whereas other groups like the frog mouths are changing more slowly or diversifying more slowly. And yet other groups, for example, horseshoe crabs are in the swan song of their biodiversity on the planet. So in order to ask questions about this, my research group focuses on really two major possibilities here. The first is that there may be major transitions, evolutionary innovations, for example, that sit at the bottom of some of these rapidly diversifying groups that may have opened up a whole new world for them. The other possibility is that there are specific processes within these groups. For example, in this group, processes like sexual selection that in and of itself drive the rapid diversification of form and function that we oftentimes are seeking to explain. So using this paradigm, talking about major transitions, as well as processes within groups, we're going to focus on the biodiversity found in jumping spiders. This is a group of choice in my lab, I think for relatively obvious reasons, these are spectacular animals. The top two animals here are part of a group in North America called the Paradise Jumping Spiders in the genus Havronatus. We'll talk quite a bit about them today. They're relatively easy to hand for us here in the US. And of course, down below are the so-called peacock jumping spiders from Australia, another really vividly colored group. Now, these types of jumping spiders have been front and center in the media coverage of jumping spiders over the past few years. And that's led perhaps members of the audience today to think that jumping spiders are all really brightly colored. But in fact, most jumping spiders are relatively drab in appearance. They may still be accomplishing elaborate displays or dance moves like this Fidipus jumping spider up here. But their body coloration is far more muted. It tends towards the browns and grays and whites and blacks. Occasionally, you'll see something like the bright blue chili tree here of Fidipus audax. But the color palette is more muted. And so we're really interested in understanding why some groups of jumping spiders have really gone bonkers with color and others have not. And one of the important clues is embedded in this image here. And that is that all of the jumping spiders that you're looking at right now are males. And male jumping spiders, especially the colorful ones, use these bright colors during elaborate courtship displays, like the one that you see here. Here's a peacock jumping spider. He's not only displaying with motion and pattern and color. He's also singing to the female at the moment with vibratory songs that transmit through whatever he is standing on. And she hears those vibrations with her legs. You can see her off to the right here. Now you might notice some hesitancy on the part of the male here. And that's well-founded because that female right there has a fairly high likelihood of attacking and eating the male rather than allowing him to mate with her. So he is really, truly dancing for his life. Now you might wonder, well, why are we suddenly learning about jumping spiders? Why are they everywhere we look in the media? And the answer to that is that these animals are incredibly small. This is a real match tip with one of those peacock jumping spiders on top. So they range from anywhere from less than two millimeters, a millimeter and a half, all the way through to about eight or nine millimeters in body size. And animals of that size have been difficult to film until the commercial photography and kind of publicly available photographic equipment caught up. So it's really this move in photographic equipment to allow us to actually film and see and share these animals that has been fundamental to their fame. So today, I want to talk about three topics. First, how to jumping spider see to give you a bit of a primer on that and some of the work in my lab focused on understanding the basic elements of jumping spider vision. I'm going to transition to talking about our work on color vision and finish up talking about dynamic displays and receiver gaze. So let's start here. How exactly did jumping spiders see? Well, if you've ever interacted with a jumping spider on your windowsill or out in a field, one of the first things that strikes you is how curious and intelligent these animals feel. And that's because they really visibly look around the world by moving their bodies to focus their eyes on objects of interest. As soon as they see you, they're likely to turn around and look straight at you. And the reason for that is that, although jumping spiders have eight eyes, the four that face forward provide them with the highest quality vision. So although they do truly have eyes in the back of their head, which they might use to see you in the first instance, to investigate stimuli in their environment that are of potential utility or interest to them, they're going to turn to face it with these four forward-facing eyes. So I want to walk you through what these four eyes allow them to see. Now, if we were to section this individual through the coronal plane here, it would look something like this. They have these two large corneal lenses for what are called the interior median eyes or principal eyes. I use those interchangeably. And then they have this pair of interior lateral or oftentimes called secondary eyes on the right. Let's start with those secondary eyes there. These eyes, we can investigate using ophthalmoscopic techniques where we look in through the lens to image the retina down below, something like this. And although our ophthalmoscope has a fairly limited field of view to look in through, each of these little dots here is a rabdom. We can stitch images together to map out the entirety of the retina of those interior lateral eyes. And they look something like what you're seeing here. This is the interior lateral eye retina of a fitipus audax. This tells us quite a bit. It tells us where these eyes look as well as their visual acuity or their likely visual acuity. And so these eyes provide a wide field of view in front of the animals. There's a considerable space of binocular overlap here. And they actually have pretty decent acuity. Point four degrees is what we estimate to be the distance in angular space that they can see distinct objects or distinct points of light. And that's about as well as the best compound eyes in the insect world can do. We also know that these eyes are only green sensitive. They only express a green visual pigment. And so they're really seeing the world in monochromatic vision. They're highly tuned to motion. They can actually do hyperacute acuity using motion. And so this gives them a kind of black and white peripheral field of view that's sensitive to motion. Let's move to the principal eyes. And these eyes are built entirely differently. As a matter of fact, they're built really differently from just about anything out there in terms of an eye. What you see in the front here is this large lens. And this focuses light down a long eye tube. And the retina down below is this tiny little finger-like thing here. So to better explain this, let's look at a diagram of this. There's an exteriorly visible corneal lens here, a long eye tube filled with vitreous humor, clear liquid. There's a diverging lens, a second lens at the bottom of that and then a layered retina. Now this paired lens system here actually works in principle the same way that a Galilean telescope would with a converging and diverging lens that focused light and then magnified that focused image onto the retina allowing these animals to essentially see the world in a magnified view. Underneath this telephoto or macro lens-like set of optics is a tiered retina here. And it's boomerang-shaped for reasons that we don't fully understand. We don't really understand the function or even the development very well of this boomerang shape. But light is focused down through this boomerang-shaped retina. So this would be an image through that pit lens here, which is going to be positioned right in the center here. And this tiered retina has four distinct tiers of photoreceptive cells. To give you a sense for this, I'm going to show you a video from the ephthalmoscope that we work with here in Cincinnati that's going to focus up from this first retinal tier through the second retinal tier and so that you can kind of see this. So you're going to begin to see coming into the field of view that first tier, the pattern of those rhabdoms. And then as it continues to focus up through, you'll see a second pattern of photoreceptor cells come into view. These are stacked on top of each other. So light coming in through that lens is going to traverse these and be absorbed. So this is what this looks like here. You get a couple of very centrally located and sparse tiers here, tiers three and four. And down below these much more extended tiers one and two. And these tiers are really pushing the optical limits of what's possible in terms of the size of a rhabdom. Their rhabdoms, especially in the central area here, are only about one micron in diameter. This dense packing of these very small rhabdoms in the center paired with that unusual set of optics out front really allows these animals to see the world in extraordinary detail. They have inter-rabdomal angles of about 0.07 degrees in the center here. And I wanna give you a sense for those of you that may not have this number in context of what that actually means. Here's a classic relationship in visual ecology with body size on the x-axis and the spatial acuity I was just talking about on the y. And both of these are on a log scale. And you can see that as animals get larger, their eyes are able to see smaller and smaller details in the world around them, classic relationship here. In other words, in order to see the world around you well, in general, you need to build a bigger eye. So let's put some points onto this to give you a little bit of grounding. There's the fruit fly, pretty poor spatial acuity for those animals. You can feel pretty smug about having pretty extraordinary spatial acuity, especially in your fovea of 0.007 degrees. Of course, your smugness might go away a little bit when you realize that things like falcons can see the world in even higher detail. But where do these jumping spider eyes fall in this? So here's that secondary eye, the interior lateral eye. And it's already well off the curve because although these animals here are quite small, they're still doing really well. They're about as good as a very large dragonfly. As a matter of fact, these animals, the jumping spiders, are smaller than the eyes of these simpetrum dragonflies in total body size. What about those principal eyes? Well, they're way off the curve down here. They've done something truly extraordinary with spatial acuity. And to put that into context, they're doing about as well as a chicken or a pigeon. They're better than the cat that you might have at home. This is the territory where elephants come out. So these animals, even though they're tiny, they're about the size of your pinky fingernail and these eyes are much smaller, are nevertheless seeing the world in extraordinary detail. I wanna point out one more thing here, which is that this layered retina here has a number of unusual properties. One of them is its layered nature. And this was explained at least theoretically by land and others that suggested that perhaps this layering here helped to cope with the feature of the optics I described earlier, which is that it has pronounced linear chromatic aberration. In other words, it focuses short wavelengths of light closer to that lens system than long waves of lengths of light. And so the thinking here was that perhaps this tearing of the retina allowed these animals to place the photoreceptor sensitive to particular wavelengths of light at the right depth behind the lens system so that the image was in correct focus. Now, the best evidence that we have for how these visual sensitivities of jumping spiders are arranged, largely, largely comports with this. So this is work by Nagata et al. from the early 2010s, where they showed that green photopigments were largely expressed in these bottom two tiers where light would be in better focus and UV, rhodopsin or UV sensitive visual pigments were expressed in these upper tiers. So this suggests that this linear chromatic aberration may be shaping exactly where these animals express the different types of photoreceptors that they have in their eyes. This work also showed that these animals are quite clearly dichromats where they're seeing colors of light using contrast between UV sensitive and green sensitive photoreceptors. So to put all of this together, these animals have this unusual visual system where they've got this broad field of motion sensitive, monochromatic, modest resolution vision that's augmented by these principal eyes that see the world in extraordinary detail and in color. So let's move to talking about color vision and color signaling. And the star of this show today will be a jumping spider here in the United States called havernatus pyrethrix or the fiery-haired jumping spider. Pyrethrix means fiery-haired. And here's a male and full courtship display. Females are cute, but much drabber than males. So here's a female pyrethrix right here. These animals live in the American Southwest in places like the lower Sonoran Desert. One of my favorite places in the world is where I did my PhD research. And so some of this is an excuse to get back to these truly extraordinary environments. These animals live in kind of open riparian habitats where we hunt them by hand, capturing them by hand in things like this open Okatio forest. Yeah, that's a forest in the Southwest. Males engage in elaborate courtship displays to females in these environments. And I'll give you a taste for what this looks like in havernatus pyrethrix. So here's the male. He begins this display with a kind of waving display that we've done quite a bit of work investigating to catch the female's attention. Once he's able to get closer, he transitions to a second phase of his courtship where he raises these orange knees over his back while he's flicking those tarsy of his first leg pairs there. And he might transition into this third stage of courtship where he's almost air drumming in front of the female. And if he's lucky, she will allow him to mount her and mate with her. So a prior postdoc in the lab, Lisa Taylor did some work to try to understand whether or not the colors in this display were important to female choice. And she did so by manipulating that bright red face of the males. She actually used Sephora liquid eyeliner to do this, to black out that red face. It's kind of an odd conversation to get in with folks at the mall and Sephora. What are you gonna use this? Oh, I'm painting jumping spiders. But she did this for males. And then she looked to see how far along the sequence of courtship males could get without females attacking or leaving or losing interest. And what she found was that males with their red face intact were actually able to get closer to the female during courtship. In other words, they were able to transition to later and later stages of courtship than males that had had their face coloration blocked out. I wanna point out here and put a pin on the fact that although there's some hint that this may still be occurring in the shade, the results were really only clear in the full sun. And so this difference between sun and shade will become important a little bit later. So we know color is important in courtship interactions in this animal. And we wanted to know whether or not color was also important in some other areas of their life, particularly foraging. So jumping spiders are cursorial predators. They don't build capture webs. They hunt down their prey by stalking their prey and then leaping on it to attack it. And many things in the environments that these jumping spiders live in are brightly colored like this Harlequin leafhopper right here. And many of these things are also quite toxic like this milkweed bug here. So we reasoned that perhaps jumping spiders might actually be using the colors of their potential prey items to make decisions about which prey to attack and which to leave behind. So we did this with what we called the cricket rainbow. We called this the kind of Skittles experiment that tastes the rainbow experiment here where we took pinhead crickets which happen to have pretty translucent bodies. And we provided them with colored water for a period of several days ahead just using basic food coloring. And as the crickets ingest this colored water it actually changes their appearance from the outside. So this allowed us to take a completely non-toxic prey item change its external color and then essentially query these jumping spiders about whether or not they had preferences with regard to the color of the prey they would or would not attack. And what we found was the jumping spiders had strong preferences against yellow and red prey items and actually seemed to have some kind of affinity for attacking blue or green prey items. The problem with this experiment was that we were unable to really adequately control for differences in brightness. So although it seems like these animals are using color and foraging it is still possible that they might be using brightness cues. And so what we wanted to do is follow up on this experiment with one in which we asked the jumping spiders to transfer the property of color from one foraging context to another. And so the way that we did this was we trained jumping spiders that red was either associated with toxicity or with palatability and even profitability. And we did so using a nice feature of a prey item here. These are milkweed bugs. We use milkweed bug nymphs, they're bright red and black. And if you feed these animals on milkweed seeds during development they acquire the toxins that protect them. And jumping spiders are quick to learn that these animals are toxic. They won't attack them after first experience with one of these toxic nymphs. But these milkweed bugs you can also be raised on sunflower seeds at which point they have no access to the toxins that give them protection and they're actually quite tasty to these jumping spiders. So we had cohorts of jumping spiders that developed around these toxic red prey items around these palatable prey items. And we had a control group that were just fed white-eyed fruit flies on a beige diet so that they weren't learning anything at all about color. We followed this up with a test where we looked to see which prey these jumping spiders would attack when we gave them a choice of an uncolored or a bright red colored cricket. So here the exact shade of red is different. The brightness is different. The shape and behavior is different. The only thing in common between their training regime and this predatory context is the color itself. And so what we found was that those that had been taught that red was associated with toxicity attacked red prey items at far lower rates than brown prey items and uncolored prey items. In contrast, those that were taught that red prey items were profitable were tasty attacked red prey items preferentially and those that were only fed fruit flies during their development didn't attack either at any significantly different rate. So this suggests that jumping spiders are not only using color to make foraging decisions but can also associatively learn that color indicates properties of their prey. And what's so exciting about this is that there's almost no work whatsoever at least not carefully controlled work identifying color-based preferences and color learning and terrestrial invertebrate predators. And yet there are a huge number of brightly colored and patterned prey items that are in size classes far smaller than we might expect avian predators to be exerting strong selection on. So for example, that Harlequin leaf hopper on the top left there is only about two and a half millimeters long, barely a snack for a passer and bird but certainly a good meal for a jumping spider. So we think jumping spiders may be really shaping the color properties of the animals that they live with. And evidence for that is quite clear around the world. I have a habit of collecting pictures like those in the bottom left because there's a whole guild of insects in the world that make a living by pretending to be jumping spiders. This helps them to avoid being predated by jumping spiders and actually fantastic work showing the jumping spiders mistake some of these animals, the animal in the far bottom left, the metal mark moth there, actually scares jumping spiders away because they mistake them as another jumping spider. So it's clear that jumping spiders are shaping the appearance of animals in the undergrowth. So jumping spiders are using color and foraging, they're using it in courtship. But if you were paying very careful attention to some of the things I said earlier, you probably noticed that I described their color vision as one of likely dichromacy by using comparisons between UV and green sensitive photoreceptors. And the problem with this is that the picture I just showed you here as viewed through a UV green dichromatic visual system loses most of the color, including the colors that I've just shown you are important in courtship. So this launched us onto a series of experiments to try to understand how are these animals seeing color in the world around? They shouldn't be at least given what we know. So we went for several sun baked weeks of time and Arizona collected a bunch of spiders and then went to Tom Cronin's lab initially. We now do this in my lab here, but we went to work with Tom Cronin in the outskirts of Baltimore into the dark. This is the yin and yang of science here. So we took our sun burns indoors to Tom Cronin's basement lab to use a technique called microspectrophotometry. And the way that this technique works for those of you not aware is that at least for these animals is that we're cryo sectioning their retinas still physiologically active and we're measuring the light absorption of those rad domes in these cryo sections. You can see over here that we have some rad domes which are kind of the dark spots in the center here. And so we spent a couple of weeks in Tom Cronin's lab measuring the retinas of Havronata's jumping spiders and we found good evidence for UV photoreceptors and those upper two tiers and green photoreceptors in those bottom two tiers. And while this might feel like a success it had not brought us anywhere beyond what I'd shared with you earlier which is this puzzle of how these animals might see color in the world around them. So we're kind of complaining about this to Tom like pulling our hair out, you know how can these animals be seen color? All we're finding is the stuff that we already knew before he came down and was tinkering with some stuff and we had one of these preps up and we had these preps up and under dim red light to avoid bleaching the photoreceptors and the retinal preps. And you don't wanna bleach them except for under specific circumstances. But Tom of course, you know he's been working with a microspectrophotometry for years and so he flicks on the stage light and ruins the sample, totally fine. But I think it's because he had this hint that maybe there was something more to what we were looking at. And he said, guys, I think you need to come look at this. And what he was seeing was this ruby red spot in the center of the retina here. And we hadn't seen it because of course it's transparent to red light. So it was completely invisible under the red light we've been working on. We go to a bunch of our other retinal sections and sure enough in every single animal that we'd sectioned there were a couple of sections in each retina where there was this ruby red spot. And this turns out to be the key to understanding how these animals see the colors that I just spoke about. They have a long pass into a retinal filter built into their retinas right in this acute foveal zone here. And this actually is positioned in front of the light path of a set of green sensitive photoreceptors down below. So incoming light is going to be filtered by essentially a red pair of sunglasses such that only red light arrives at these photoreceptors down below. The consequence of this filtering pigment is that it shifts the functional sensitivity for this population of cells down below here from being largely green sensitive off into the far red. And the result is the ability to move from this situation to this. That filter opens up a whole new world of long wavelength colors for these animals to be able to see. Now, one of the interesting things about this is that when we discovered this mechanism it helped us to understand some of our prior behavior results. So I mentioned that I was going to come back to this. We get this strong response by females under full sun but in the shade and lower light conditions that it responds to red coloration is attenuated. And that can be fairly readily explained by our results for how they're able to see the red because this filter pigment filters out most of the light that these green photoreceptors down below are sensitive to. In other words, their red sensitivity is reliant on this little shoulder of sensitivity of these otherwise green sensitive photoreceptors. In other words, the red photoreceptor class is extremely light limited and needs lots and lots of light to function. So these animals essentially go back to being dichromats when they're in the shade. So we wanted to know whether or not this filter had arrived as one of these major transitions as an evolutionary novelty or an evolutionary innovation. So the red filter is fairly easy to screen for. We began sectioning the retinas of jumping spiders from across the jumping spider family tree. And what we found was that it was highly restricted to habronatus and close relatives here. And so what we think is that this red filter allows these animals access to colors they wouldn't otherwise be able to see. And that this sit at the very basis for the exuberant diversification of color in male courts of displays across this group. It's a new way to tell males apart, males of one species from males of another species, males that are of high quality from males that are of low quality. And this sets the stage for evolutionary diversification of color and male displays. These are just some of the species of habronatus jumping spiders that we have here in the US. I want to return to this because in the exercise of looking for these filters, we sectioned moratus, which is those peacock jumping spiders, and found that they had no retinal filter. So of course, we had to measure their vision and we find measuring them with microspectrophotometry that they're actually tetrachromads with the addition of a blue sensitive visual pigment and a slightly longer wavelength, yellow or orange sensitive visual pigment to the UV and green complement. So now this picture is moving from something like this to repeated major transitions. And this motivated us to begin kind of prospecting across the family tree for jumping spiders using things like bright color and male displays as a tell, a telltale sign that perhaps something has happened to the visual systems of a novel group. And there are quite a few groups of jumping spiders with bright color. One example of these is this animal, Lassertis rainbow spider or stenoluralis Lasserti from India. I just want to say for a moment that my heart really goes out to my Indian colleagues right now, whether at home or abroad because of the situation with COVID at home. And I hope that that situation turns around very quickly. This is a male Lassertis rainbow spider here. You can obviously see that he's using long wavelength colors very conspicuously. And I also want to point out that these long wavelength color patches are restricted to forward-facing surfaces. They're still fairly drab from above, meaning that these are likely to be used into an intraspecific signaling. And so when we measure these in India several years ago, we find again, another instance of tetrachromacy in jumping spiders, again with very different peak sensitivities for these photoreceptor types. So completely independent group of moratus or habronatus in totally different parts of the family tree of jumping spiders, we see evidence for these evolutionary transitions to potentially improved color vision. So we're really beginning to find enormous diversity in the retinal sensitivities of jumping spiders. And if you've been paying careful attention to these little schematics I've been providing here, you can see a kind of organizing principle, which is that all of these actually seem to be organized by that linear chromatic aberration I mentioned earlier. So they really are, their retinas are being organized in a way in terms of where they place their different color sensitive cells by that basic optical feature of their lens system. So this is spun into a really enormous worldwide project that we're having such a delight doing, although COVID has grounded some of our fieldwork plans. Here's a big family tree of the salticity. And this is kind of how it started and where it's going kind of set of slides here. This is the sampling of jumping spider visual sensitivities when we began working on them here. So some work in the late 70s and 80s and then that Nagata paper in the early 2010s. Largely told the story of dichromacy across the group. Yamashita and Tata's results in the late 70s were met with considerable skepticism by people like blessed and devote because they hadn't found evidence for anything else other than UV and green sensitive ones and Yamashita and Tata provided some evidence for blue and red sensitivity. So this was kind of provisionally accepted by the field at the time. Further evidence for kind of an ancestral condition of UV green dichromacy was provided by an out group, the wolf spiders in the Lycosidae up here, UV green dichromats. And so we've been filling this in with species across this group over the past couple of years. The overarching story is one of largely conserved UV green dichromacy. Lots of these groups out there, Lysamenone, the Hacerone, et cetera, are UV green dichromats. Here's the three unusual systems I already talked to you about down here. But in the process of looking across this group or discovering repeated evolution of long wavelength sensitivity, oftentimes very restricted in taxonomic scope, even within a group like the Spartyines, only some seem to have this long wavelength addition. Asteroids have a long wavelength addition. Hacerius has an additional one here. And so we see this kind of smattering of what we think are probably that mid-wavelength sensitive ops in duplicating and neo-functionalizing into a longer wavelength sensitive visual pigment. And this is work that we're following up with Megan Porter. Her group is doing a lot of the transcriptomics and genomics and expression analyses to understand this better. We also have evidence for a duplication of a UV sensitive visual pigment in the Spartyines here. But the overall this type of duplication event seems to be fairly rare, at least in comparison to this mid-wavelength sensitive ops. Interestingly, just a few months ago, we discovered what we think is probably a second origin or maybe we're seeing reversions but of this filter pigment. So there's a restricted group of plexipines that also have that with a lot of intervening tax of lacking it. So we're gonna need to investigate where that second origin, potential second origin of that filter pigment comes from. We're also kind of looking across this group, looking for red coloration as this tell, as I mentioned. And I just want to point out that sometimes things that we think should be able to see color much better don't. I'm gonna highlight Mexicanus right here because these animals, at least for our microspectrophotometric measurements are UV green dichromats. And yet look at these beasts. I mean, they're using red everywhere. So this is a disappointing in a way but also incredibly exciting because it suggests that these animals are seeing color in some other way or using color in some other way. In other words, we don't really fully understand yet how these animals interact with color in their natural world. But nevertheless, we think this big broad study is really helping us to understand big picture questions about why some groups of jumping spiders are so drab and other groups of jumping spiders are so brightly colored. So we're gonna continue this work asking questions about how these different visual systems shape evolutionary diversification of color traits in all of these groups in the coming years. All right, the last part of my talk is to talk a bit about work. We've been doing on dynamic displays and receiver gaze. And the way that animals allocate their visual attention in complex scenes is a whole area of study in its own right. We as humans, when we encounter a complicated scene with lots of things that might be visually demanding to us have kind of a set of both conscious and subconscious rules that we use to navigate a scene like this to acquire the information. If you're looking at this right now, your eyes might gravitate towards this face. Faces are very appealing stimuli to us. Things like flashing stuff, of course, are there to try to draw our eye to look at things. And some of this exploration of a complex scene like this is under visual control or, sorry, conscious cognitive control. And other elements of this are not. They, that we just have kind of rote ways of looking at things that we really can't help. But of course, jumping spiders are not in 1930s times square. What does a complex visual situation look like for a jumping spider? And it's going to be these displays or the complex environments that they navigate visually. So this is where our work is really focused is to try to understand where are females looking when they encounter a display like this in the midst of everything that's going on in the world around them that might be of importance. Predators or prey items moving around. Now you may be wondering, well, why am I talking about gays? We move our eyeballs around in our head, but these animals have these fixed lenses on the outside of their head. And the females not moving our head around. And that's true. The corneal lenses of these eyes are fixed to the side of their head. But I've concealed one last feature of jumping spider, vision for dramatic effect, which is that the very, very narrow fields of view of these principal eyes pose a challenge for these animals to look around the world. That combined pair of lenses means that these are like binoculars. They only see about two degrees of the world outside of them at any given point in time, at least in the horizontal plane. But what jumping spiders have evolved is the capacity to move their retinas around inside their head using a dedicated set of muscles attached to the back of this eye tube. So these are these blue bands here. Actually gives them something around a 50 to 60-degree range of travel here that they can use to look around the world outside without even needing to move their heads. And if you've never seen a video of this before, I really need to share it with you, because this is just a mind-blowing thing. So what you're seeing here is a juvenile jumping spider that is transparent. And you should be able to see those finger-like eye tubes moving around in its head as it's tracking that brush off to the side. You see this is a tiny animal. There's a Drosophila for scale in the upper right. Lots of people wonder, what's that little dot moving around inside its head? And that's actually something this jumping spider has eaten. If you can imagine moving around things the size of bratwurst inside your head while you're looking around the world, you get a sense for what this feels like to these animals. These are huge structures inside their head. And they move their brain around. They move their digestive system around as they look around. Excuse me, as they look around the world. Now, as these animals develop and become adults, which is, of course, when we want to study them in regard to this courtship, their bodies become opaque. And we can no longer access this information from the outside looking in, at least through the body wall. Instead, we use a second set of ophthalmoscopic techniques in collaboration with Beth Jacob and her lab, which allow us to look through the lens into the interior of the animal to monitor where their eyes are looking using infrared reflections off of these principal eye retinas. And we compare this with a playback paradigm where we present them with stimuli and then we can track in real time where their retinas are looking. And you can see that these boomerang-shaped retinas have XY movements. They also have the ability to do torsional movements where they can rotate those retinas as well. And they're pretty good at tracking objects like this little dot moving past. They also are quite curious about stimuli like potential prey items. So you'd see this increase in those torsional movements as they explore a stimulus like that. These kinds of torsional movements land, Mike Lant, speculated might be these animals using the wings of those boomerangs as line detectors to detect legs. But nobody really had worked on understanding how these jumping spiders look at these complex displays. So that's what our project is largely focused on is tracking the retinas as of females as they watch playbacks of male displays. So here's one of those sequences here with the left and right foveal regions of the retinas labeled here. And what you're gonna see is the female kind of looks around the display for a minute. And all of these females have this bored 1,000-mile stare where their eyes go to rest. In this female, it's off in the bottom right. She's done that now. The male's gonna hike his knees and she's gonna see those in her anterior lateral eyes and then zip over to look at them. And there she goes right there. And there's a little bit of a delay in that because of course she's seeing those knee movements in those secondary eyes which send a signal to the central nervous system which then coordinates the muscle movements to move the principal eyes over to look at the object of interest. So there is this built-in delay. What we can do is track in real time where these females are looking not only from instant to instant but also collapsed over time to try to better understand where females concentrate their attention during male displays. And one of the powerful things about this playback paradigm is that we can manipulate what females see. So we can create a full display like this. We can eliminate elements of this display. We can change where the colors are positioned on this display. To begin to tease apart whether movement or color or specific traits are involved in female gaze capture and retention. And so we can take a group of females and play them the same stimulus and then track the kind of group or population level behaviors of these gaze like you're seeing here. And this allows us to look at this data in a number of ways which I wanna share with you right now. This is very much ongoing not only in methods development but also in deriving insight from this data. But if we collapse this information over time you can see that females spend a lot of time looking in some areas and not others. And what was so exciting about receiving this data from my postdoc Daniel Zurich at the time was that he sent it to me without the male display under lane below it as I have it here. And yet I knew exactly where the male display elements were where those knees were going to be placed in the display and where those Tarsi flicks were going to be just by knowing where the female looked. I could see the male display. We are looking into manipulating this so if we remove those knee movements in the videos what we find is a significant decrease in the amount of attention. Obviously that females pay to this region of space where those knees would be. But rather intriguingly females still spend a lot of time looking just above the head in the location where those knees would normally be emerging which suggests some kind of perhaps even built in template for looking at these that could be even species specific. There's some anticipation for where salient or important male display elements might be. We can do grayscale manipulation such that females are really not seeing colored things but we remove the color and removing color really shifts where females look in space when they're viewing these male displays. Suddenly the things that females spend a lot of time looking at that were very colorful become less interesting and this is becoming true across species as I'll mention in a minute. So I wanna share with you a little bit more what this data looks like if we don't collapse it across time. We've called this a space time cube. It's really a three-dimensional histogram of where the majority of females are looking at any given point in time. And I'm going to try to swap over and load a more interactive version of this here so that I can walk you through what we're seeing. What you're seeing here with time going from left to right is a series of events. We've got them labeled as flick. That's those first leg tarsal flicks and then those knee pops coming up over the back. And so let's just look at it from the top down. It's just incredible to watch this as a narrative. Females become very interested in one of those two wrist flicks as we call them up here and then those male knees emerge above his back and she immediately begins looking at them. His other knee comes up on the other side. She switches over to looking at them there and she continues looking some proportion of the females then look up to these flicks again. But what the male is really doing is manipulating where in space females are looking. Now it turns out that if we look at removing color not only does it reshape where females are looking in space but it also shapes female attention or female interest by changing the length of time that females persistently look in a given area. So what we're calling attentional half-life goes down as we remove color. So these are really kind of rich representations of where females are looking here. So you can kind of see the concentration of female attention across space and time. So where we're taking this now is hang on I've just got to get back to my presentation here. This was working great. There we go, excellent. Where we're at now is we're looking across this group. Again, another large comparative study in Habernadas over a hundred species in the US to work from lots of variety in their displays and we're doing the same gaze tracking paradigm with them. So here's an example of this from Habernadas to Corus. Again, we get this concentration of female attention that's concentrated not only just on his abdomen but on his face and we get more information about how females evaluate displays over time. So this male abdomen is kind of wiggling off to the left here and you can see that she engages with it once then twice but her attention begins to shift more and more over to his body and to the rest of his display. So this gives us some sense for how females essentially consume the available information in the male display. The other thing to note here is that these animals are really diverse in terms of their habitat usage. So some of them live in leaf litter or on rocky cobbles and sand and montane forest clearings. And so we're using this ecological diversity to really explore how the circumstances, the visual ecology of these animals shapes properties of the colors that they use in their displays as well as the properties of the movements that they use when courting to achieve saliency, contrast with the background, not just in color contrast, which has been studied quite a bit but also in motion contrast with the background. So what you're looking at here are all videos of their environments. And you can see that some of them have almost no movement in them at all like this red rock scree here whereas others are gonna have more motion like this one here, a grassland habitat that has a lot of horizontal motion. And so we're processing this using computer vision algorithms to monitor kind of optic flow in these different environments and then asking whether or not that might drive selective pressures for particular colors and motions in these displays. So I just wanna end today by sharing some of the diversity of displays that we find in this group here. Here's Habernanus Hursutus named Hursutus for being, so Hursutus, so Harry, these are our boreal species. And we think that the twitchiness of these male display movements may actually be really quite salient against the largely swaying motion and the mesquite bosques within which these animals live up in the bushes and in the canopy. Here is Habernanus Halini, this animal here, we like to call Mr. Sparkle Pants in the lab because he's got these iridescent under surfaces to his legs here. And he actually reminds me a lot of those birds of paradise that we keep seeing footage of in the way that he kind of moves side to side orienting all of that iridescent color with the occasional flash of some of the colors in his movement here. And see him come back across here. Really spectacular animals. All different strategies for capturing and retaining female gays and hopefully eventually convincing the female to allow the male to mate with him. Here's another one here, this is Habernanus Organensis, we call him Popeye for the obvious reason here. And he's just a weirdo, he just kind of ogres his way around like this here. And the last one that I wanna show you here is Habernanus Americanus. And he's named of course, because he's red, white and blue but he's also a spaz, he's the subject of lots of Fourth of July memes in my lab. But again, look at that incredibly brilliant red underbelly that he's got here. I never get sick of watching these animals do their thing and they'll do it on an arena the size of a CD or a small dinner plate, which makes them incredible behavioral models. So to return to the kind of broad schematic of the talk here I hope I've convinced you that not only is our work discovering major transitions for example in color vision, driving diversity across this incredible animal group but we're also making some headway and thinking about processes within clades, things like attentional processes and sexual selection that might be driving the particular forms that this diversity takes on and how that interacts with the environments that they live in. So if you'll stick with me for just two more slides I wanna talk a little bit about why we do this kind of work. Of course, we're interested in diversity of life but I wanna point to some of the broader value to human society for this. Things like jumping spiders provide us with exceptional inspiration for novel technologies that can solve some of the pressing technological challenges that we face. You might not think that an iPhone or phone technology is pressing technology until you realize how much of the ability to enact change in our world in terms of abuses and police violence, et cetera come from the simple devices of our phone cameras and the telephoto lens, wide angle lens pairing of the most recent generation of iPhones is really very similar to the ways in which jumping spider vision works. So perhaps there are ways of learning novel algorithms or novel techniques for even improving upon that. Actually, one of the early Mars rovers contained a system with a moving sensor that was very much inspired by jumping spider vision. We've been talking with folks in the self-driving car industry because they face the challenge that jumping spiders face which is that they have an enormous inflow of information that they need to use to make sometimes life or death decisions on split second behavioral timelines. And of course, these Ubers like the self-driving Uber here do so by crunching all that data in a liquid cooled supercomputer in the trunk but that's just not sustainable as a mechanism for rolling that out more broadly. So are there particular ways in which jumping spiders down sample types of information that could be used as an analogy for novel technologies for self-driving cars? And of course, something as small as the jumping spider eye with its visual capabilities could provide real inspiration for biomedical sensing. And I just wanna give a quick shout out that we've started a brand new research institute that I'm leading as director here at the University of Cincinnati with wide reaching collaborations across campus and medicine and engineering and across arts and sciences here with external partners called the Institute for Research and Sensing or IRIS that seeks to bridge this gap between natural and engineered sensors in new ways. But these applications really aren't what drive me personally. And so I guess the note I wanna end on is that what drives me personally is curiosity about the world, that boyhood joy and discovering the intricate and unusual alien lives of things that we share the planet with. I really fell in love with this planet as a boy and have retained that love over time in part because of this extraordinary opportunity to continue to look carefully at the world around us. And I think that curiosity is something that is a deeply human thing. Oftentimes curiosity driven sciences is a pejorative designation. And I don't think it should be because I think part of what it is to be human is to be curious and we should value that and we should honor that. And part of the way of doing so is to look carefully at nature with curiosity. And perhaps that will allow us to fall in love with nature which is really what we need to do in order to save the planet from many of the harms that we bring to it every day. So that's where my passion comes from is that this is me with my younger sister. I still feel like that inside. And so I just wanna end by thanking lots of folks, collaborators that have kept me sane and stimulated my thinking and gone to the field with me. We've had really extraordinary luck with funding from the National Science Foundation. I really appreciate their support. The University of Cincinnati is just an absolute joy of a place to be doing this kind of work with strengths and sensing and sensor technology development and sensory biology all across campus. And I'm happy to answer questions in the session that follows up on this but that's what I have to share today. So thanks again for being with me and look forward to questions in the discussion afterwards. Well, thank you and that was very interesting. I mean, it's a mesmerizing complexity for such a tiny animal. I would like to ask you something about the four remaining eyes. Do we know anything about their composition? I mean, are there other spectral absorbance? Well, so they have in jumping spiders that have two secondary style eyes that face backwards. So that gives them almost a 360 degree view of space. And again, they're much like those anterior lateral eyes, green sensitive, motion sensitive, modest resolution eyes. And then those are called the posterior lateral eyes and then they have a very small, almost vestigial pair of posterior median eyes that face skyward. And one of the unusual features of those eyes is they're not always properly image forming and they express a blue sensitive visual pigment in those. So those may be guiding, they're kind of an up-down response, their attitude stabilization in a way as well as their circadian rhythm. Whether they do anything with polarization, we don't really know, but yeah, that seems to be how those are distributed. And I just wanna say that what's unusual is we almost never find that blue visual pigment expressed in the principal eyes, which is odd. They have the ops and in their genome as part of their ancestral ops and complement, but it seems to only ever be expressed in those posterior median eyes for reasons that we don't understand. It would obviously be really useful in all of vision. That's a bit of a mystery still. Sorry, very positive indeed. I have a question, sorry if I said the name wrong from Schumann-Kars-Saha. So he has a question related to your experiment about matings. How do you take away the probability of actually getting rejected by a female when you have colored the male with red? Does a female have any idea about the male population of the female? And by that he meant that rejection acceptance can be a function of multiple parameters and not any color. Technically, how can you, how do you control all your parameters to drive the decision of mating? Or addiction in these cases? That's a great question. Obviously there's a lot more going on in the male display than just the color of his face, right? And males can differ in the amount of time they spend courting and the vigor of their courtship. And in a separate set of experiments with the same species, which I didn't have the time to share today, we also measured those kinds of courtship effort measurements and those are very influential in the male's ability to court and move through his sequence of courtship events. So the amount of time the male spends courting, the vigor of his display, both very predictive of male courtship success. Obviously we cannot control for that in this circumstance, but Lisa worked very hard to try to kind of size match males between the two treatments and to monitor what's called male conditions. So his weight versus his body size to make sure that anything we could control ahead of time was controlled for. But again, differences in male motivation can vary and we couldn't control for that there. But the one thing we knew for sure different between those treatment groups was whether or not the male had experienced this blackening of his face. So we think it's pretty good evidence that that at least plays some role here. I agree. I forgot to tell the audience that if they want to come here and as they question themselves they can follow the link that was post on a YouTube chat or if you just want to join us for a post-poking formal session, please do so now. I have a follow-up question actually about this regarding your gazing experiment. So you actually showed what it's an array of interests a female may have during the courtship behavior. Did you estimate what was the wrong move, let's say for the male to be rejected or eaten? Do we know what's the wrong move might be in your gazing experiment? No, I mean, that's of course very difficult in that situation to do because the females are tethered and they're presented with this playback stimulus. So we don't have any real way of knowing whether or not they might lunge at a male if he's made some kind of wrong move. We're now to the point where we're using track ball methods to track where females fictive path might be in response to some of these displays but that was not part of our original formulation of that paradigm. So we don't really know. I would say that mating is fairly rare as an outcome for these interactions as well. It certainly is in the lab. One of the reasons for this is that females only typically mate once, sometimes twice over the course of their lifespan and these animals live for a year and a half, probably about a year as adults in many instances. And they can be courted by males as at peak population densities once an hour. So that's a whole lot of rejection, right? And not a whole lot of acceptance. So one of the limitations of this system is having enough of these acceptance events in our dataset to know what truly predicts that. We can look at the amount of time that females spend engaged with the male display. We can look at the number of times females attack males. We can look at how close the male advances in his sequence of courtship display elements. But that final seal the deal on mating is a relatively rare event just given the mating system dynamics here. It probably also places a lot of pressure on the male because he knows that it's unlikely but he really needs to give it his all. So we don't have good information about what leads males to kind of be accepted yet in terms of that final stage. More variables than just the preponents. I have a question from Tom Badden. Who are the main predators of jumping spiders? As a big enough to be interesting to birds? In other words, what is a counter-drivers of then being a couple? As in particular, as a deep red for spider-faces, my two red for most insect visual systems? What about these odd frogs, et cetera? Yeah, it's a great question. Depends on where you are in the world. I'm sure that birds are jumping spider predators. I'm not aware of any jumping spiders that are chemically defended in terms of being toxic to consume so they're gonna largely be a fine thing for birds to eat. What I would say is that perhaps when looking at jumping spider, natural history, physiology, et cetera, I would say that one of the things that seems to be more of a threat to them in terms of the things that they've evolved to be able to detect are wasps. There are a lot of predatory spider wasps that are moving around hunting for them in every field environment that we go to pretty much. There is a guild of spider hunting wasps out and about. They seem to respond very clearly to wasp frequency sounds in terms of wasp frequency, wing-beat frequencies. And they also have those posterior median eyes that seem to be attuned perhaps to looming responses. So I think one of the major things they worry about as jumping spiders is these spider hunting wasps. Of course, there are other things that might capture them to praying mantises and things like that. But my guess is that the thing that keeps a jumping spider up at night are these predatory wasps. I have a question here from James Stone, which is with us. Who's with us? Sorry, if you want to ask a question yourself, you ask if you can say anything about depth perception in spiders. Maybe, James, you want to elaborate? Well, I mean, I can certainly answer that. So that is a really fascinating topic that actually intersects with some of the work that I talked about today. The Nagata paper that I mentioned from 2012, Demonser provided evidence for an image defocus mechanism for depth perception in jumping spiders. Pretty fascinating. So jumping spiders can still judge depth even when they only have access to one of their principal eyes, which suggests that they're doing something within a single eye to see depth. And the notion there was that what these animals were doing was using that chromatic linear aberration to estimate depth by comparing how in focus or out of focus images were in the bottom two tiers of their retina and tiers one and two. So the idea was that light would be in, green light would be in best focus in tier one and less well in focus in tier two and that disparity in focus between those two tiers could give them some estimate for distance. What's interesting about our work in relation to that is that we're showing that they have a variety of sensitivities in that very bottom tier. And so what that implies is that there may be some conflation of color and depth cues. Even in the instance of having both bottom tiers be green sensitive, this system would lead to red stimuli looking closer than they actually were. They would estimate red objects to be closer. And that may actually offer some clues into the use of red by prey and by males because these may present a kind of looming large feeling or when contrasted with things like blue stimuli might create something of a depth illusion, which is something that one of my students is investigating right now. Are these animals and their prey using blue and red contrasting patterns to create a kind of depth illusion? We have the same thing. We have a little bit of linear chromatic aberration in our eyes as well. And when you put like a magenta and teal blue pattern your eye kind of has a hard time of figuring out it kind of vibrates back and forth. And we think that something similar may be happening for these jumping spiders as a consequence in part of this depth perception mechanism. But it's something that we're investigating and of course it involves actually looking at the optics of some of these species with modified color vision and whether or not they tweak the optics and optical parameters to try to focus light at different depths is not really clear. It could be interesting to see how you control this kind of experiment. We'll be looking for that. Yeah, yeah. Well, we're starting with locomotion and looking at whether or not they misestimate depth when they're moving to red platforms or to contrasting platforms and things like that. I have another question from Tambaden. Can you use the gaze tracking approach to estimate the actual visual features? For example, red moving spots that drives specific types of high movement. To make prediction about the neuron doing this, for example, by using a reverse correlation, no stimulation. Yeah, good question. So yeah, absolutely. The playback paradigm is really open for all sorts of psychophysical approaches. What we're using it for right now is to really test color vision. So although I gave you the circumstantial evidence for it from the prey attack experiments, what we'd really like to do is get things like wavelength discrimination curves. And so what we're doing there is we're moving dots of different colors that are isoluminant with a different, with a background of a different color to look at where the boundaries of chromatic contrast exist between stimuli. And we just pulled the trigger on getting a UV green, red projection system so that we can expand that down into the UV as well. So of course these animals see in the UV, we need to be projecting metamers that are UV, green and red. So, but lots of open questions there. Beth Jacob and Ron Hoy are pursuing some of those questions, but we were also working on the kind of color vision side of things. So yeah, exciting to see where those kinds of things. We'd love to hear, Tom, if you have ideas about clever experiments to do with that approach. Ideas we have plenty. Before I continue, I just want to say audience, I'm going to end up the stream on YouTube soon. So if you want to have this discussion, please join us. And if you have any questions that you want to be asked, do that now. Regarding the UV parts that you were talking about, I have a question from Gregor Belichick. Does the addition of long wavelength vision cause any inflation on the brain? I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that. Yeah, that's interesting. So Gregor, I'm assuming that you're asking whether or not brain regions tasked with processing are increasing complexity or size. We don't really know that yet. I would love to know that. There's huge diversity in brain region size in jumping spiders and across jumping spiders in general. There is kind of a separate processing pathway for the principal eyes from the secondary eyes that then is united in the central nervous system that we think maybe in the RQ8 body, but that's not even very well worked out. There was work done to trace some of the kind of first tiers of that already, but we don't have it for any of these unusual color vision systems. So I'd love to know that more. There's also the related question of whether or not there's any proliferation of the number of photoreceptors because you might imagine that these transitions might require especially if the different spectral sensitivities are interdigitated in that tier one, for example, it might compromise to some extent spatial acuity. We don't really know that yet, but we'll have a better sense of that as we begin doing kind of comparative retinal matrix measurements across these jumping spiders. So I guess stay tuned. Do you want to hop in and help? There's a lot to do on this front and looking forward to collaborating with folks on it. All right, so thank you for that. I will end up the YouTube stream now. So thanks for being with us today. We will see you next week. I mean, looking at the audience obviously. We have heavy buyer coming with us next week. So thanks for being with us every weekend. See you next Monday. Thanks so much. Really appreciate it being here.

The Jimmy goes too, the Jimmy goes too, and the Jimmy goes too. The St. Lucia Tourism Awards, The Jimmy's, made its debut on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, birthing a new era of celebrating and acknowledging excellence, innovation, and a distinction within the hospitality industry. Hospitality contributors from all parts of the sector gathered in one space to extol the hard work and dedication of their peers, contemporaries, and colleagues. My name is Ali, and I won the Jimmy's Award for Independent Restaurant Employee of the Year. As you can see, the trophy is pretty heavy. To be quite honest, I've been in the industry for a little bit of time, and winning the award was a whole new experience. It was kind of very uplifting. You know, like if you've been in a job for such a long time, and now that you're really like working on something, and then you get the appreciation, you know, you know, it's not just the guest or just your peers or, you know, the teammates, an actual award that says you've done well. Since I won the award, more or less, you know, I mean, people they come by and they say, yeah, I saw, and like, you know, you've been doing good, and yeah, it's a good feeling, it's a good feeling. Named after Mount Jimmy, the highest peak in the country, standing at an elevation of 3,120 feet, the Jimmy's is synonymous with reaching new heights, the pinnacle of excellence. The actual award design, which depicts the Jimmy's, was conceptualized and created by world-renowned sculptor, designer, and son of the soil, Jaleem Yudovic. The Jimmy's Award scheme captures a diverse landscape of St. Lucia's hospitality industry, awarding organizations, employees, independent operators, and unsung heroes under the category of special awards and recognition. My name is Andrew Mondezi. My business name is La Emodesia. The Jimmy that I won was for craft and souvenir retailer of the year. Getting the nomination, it was a big thrill. I mean, I'm a small fish in this huge tourism industry, and to be recognized, that was exciting. Winning the award was encouraging. It really gave me the motivation to even improve in my craft, improve in my service. The actual prizes, I'm very appreciative for the prizes because I've already implemented them into my business and I'm already seeing the benefits. One of the prizes was a consultation with a marketing expert, which really helped me to develop my brand, develop my logo, and I could really see this going forward and helping me improve my service in the tourism industry here in St. Lucia. In any field, an award really encourages the participants to reach out for something better. It also helps them to feel appreciated in their fields. The Jimmy's, in particular, one thing that really encouraged me to reach out for this award was the Jimmy itself. It's a beautiful work of art by Jale Mudevik and just having a piece of Jale's art really encouraged me to be part of this award. The Ministry of Tourism-led Initiative, the Jimmy's, was developed to serve as an opportunity to set new benchmarks of excellence, recognize the best in the industry, and reflect on their indelible contribution which drives the sector. In collaboration with St. Lucia Hospitality and Tourism Association, SLHTA, and the St. Lucia Tourism Authority, SLTA, the Ministry of Tourism uses the Jimmy's to show why St. Lucia is known worldwide as a destination of choice. Dear ST members of the tourism community, we are delighted to extend a warm welcome to you as we kick off the call for nominations for the highly anticipated 2024 St. Lucia Tourism Awards. This prestigious event is a celebration of excellence, innovation, and dedication within our vibrant tourism industry. In line with our commitment to recognizing outstanding contributions and fostering growth, this year brings exciting updates. We are introducing new award categories to ensure more of our outstanding operators get their recognition they deserve. Continuing on the global momentum, and in aligning the theme of the 2023 World Tourism Day Tourism and Green Investments, we are placing a special focus on sustainable practices and eco-friendly innovations. This theme underscores our collective responsibility to promote tourism that not only captivates but also preserves the beauty of our beloved St. Lucia. In our quest to ensure St. Lucia continues its reign as a Caribbean-leading honeymoon, nature, and adventure destination, we solicit the support of all industry stakeholders in this journey of selecting the new crop of Jimmy's winners, whose dedication we are eager to celebrate. Thank you for your unwavering dedication to making St. Lucia a premier destination. We look forward to all your nominations. As a nation, let's celebrate an industry, the people and organizations that form part of the social and economic fabric of St. Lucia. The countdown to the Jimmy's 2024 begins now. Get on the road to Jimmy's 2024.

Hey everybody, I'm Lance Goyki. Today I wanna discuss probably the question I get asked the most, maybe next to how should I breathe during this? The question I get asked the most is should I, when I take my, you know, if I have squats and I've got five by five to go through, should I try to do the same weight the whole time or should I try to work up in weight as I go, as I get, you know, warmer and more accustomed to doing the exercise? This is one of those, I really don't care exercise prescriptions. The biggest thing that you should focus on is are you pushing yourself hard enough? If you're not pushing yourself hard enough because you get really, really tired if you try to hang on to that weight the whole time and you just don't wanna do anymore, then stop doing that, then, you know, work up in weight and try to peak a little bit higher. But in general, I'm gonna get the biggest strength gains, the biggest hypertrophy gains, the biggest, you know, conditioning gains, whatever it is, by pushing my body to the limit because that's how my body realizes, okay, well, I need to be able to do more than what I was able to do today because that was really uncomfortable. Now, other prescriptions, so if five by five is like the greatest example of this, if you're doing five by five for the purposes of hypertrophy, then I would just say pick whichever one you like and maybe a simpler way to do it is to just pick a weight and try to do it for five sets of five. If you get five sets of five, then next time go up 5% and try that again. If you get five, five, five, four, three, then you can say, okay, next time I'm gonna try to get five by five. And that makes the hypertrophy stimulus a very controlled and you can, you know, distinctly measure your progress on that lift. If I'm doing five by five for purposes of getting stronger though, then I might wanna taper it up so that I can gradually increase the load so that I can have some sets at a higher weight requiring more force. Yeah, I mean, because that's the goal of your strength work is to increase that force output. So think about it that way. If you're really concerned about it and you don't really have a goal, then stop being concerned about it. If you are working for strength gains, try to work up in weight. And if you're working for hypertrophy gains, try both and see which one you think you do better with.

Opal Blake of the Year Blake Griffin 610 250. I'm so excited to use 99 standing don't 99 driving don't even has a three-pointer dude. I love my starting line up Anthony wet Anthony Anthony wet words is amazing RJ Hampton's Fastest Hell Yonis is just Yonis if I was 7 foot 12 I would probably win MVP to I mean if you're 7 9 I can do the same thing to and James Weissman kind of went off for being a 95 mediocre diamond center let's spin this wheel let's get our challenge wheel in let's play some 2k baby alright I know you guys missed the wheel the wheel is back for this episode I wasn't using the last time it's gonna be ask Twitter dude this is so weird I just did ask Twitter I just pulled on Twitter for my last wheel a month video now I want to center it has to be a 95 to 97 so oh there is a yelming I love y'all I love y'all me that's definitely going in the poll alright let's start this poll up baby I'm definitely gonna throw 96 Hakim on there 97 Carl Malone and the final one Anthony Davis wouldn't be that bad dude I kind of like Anthony Davis I'm gonna leave this up for two minutes a few minutes later Anthony Davis has taken it pretty handedly Twitter has chosen 97 overall Anthony Davis alrighty so the addition to the squad today is Anthony Davis and coming off the bench will be Weissman no more Carl Anthony and so long as these packs are in the store if I complete my challenge I get to open one of the packs so I'm gonna stick with that I mean I just pulled the galaxy Opal so I'm definitely sticking with that my challenge is to hold my opponent to 60 or less this is such a hit or miss because the game I played on stream I think my opponent dropped 75 for this last game this guy was getting nowhere close to this so we're glad to see he's got Lonzo Luca Devin Booker Alvin Hayes and Shaq his squad is lots of galaxy Opals but I think we'll be alright I'm not worried about it how did I get back to me this guy's got all galaxy Opals on the bench to shit shit oh Blake Griffin with a steel when I wasn't even looking at the Davis just got on the squad just got a bucket dude this guy has KFC jerseys what's with all this KFC shit oh he's getting his FTC FTC I respect that I don't know what what the deal is with fucking KFC in this game RJ Hampton RJ Clampton I got I got some good names for the boys right now this is not my best game ever right now I don't know what that was but it was actually a really good play right there what this is so unlucky right now everything is just crumbling we just started the game and everything's crumbling oh give me the loop give me the loop finally getting Blake Griffin involved baby this is so silly everyone's just running around like a what I don't know what's happening but I know that I don't like it Cole Anthony getting in there free free Jordan Diamond Jordan with a brick from the top of the key for him to shoot the same shot okay you know what we both break wide open ones I'm okay with the reality of this and that's a free bucket why why why did you stop dunking are you serious right now oh my god why this game is trash this is an ugly one we're gonna need to we're gonna need to bring it together settle down and get a dub somehow Carmelo Anthony with the clamps oh that's a pretty decent shot no game audio no game audio damn I made it that was a good pick and roll to all right down by 10 of the first ugly I'm not too frustrated I I really think this game is when okay look at curry man I just see them on the court damn great defense great on ball defense did this needs to stop oh curry they're talking about the greatest three-point shooter of all time with a wide open fucking shot what is happening why is this happening just I'm getting hold out so bad for sure that was really good play right there too but why am I getting hold out oh brother this guy stick wiseman goes up puts it in definitely needed that one what am I doing wrong bro I know my feet aren't set but these are wide open shots what the fuck what am I watching I got to make every I gotta make every possession really count no dude why the fuck are you giving him that shot I'm shooting uncontested threes and we're giving him that get to the free-throw line I'm not giving up on this game I'm gonna win this two free throws right there so you start out of come back oh shit I don't even know where I was supposed to be there but well I'll take a bailout it's how you started come back is with a couple bailouts easy come back begins RJ Clampton I knew he was going up with that but still hits only a tube on them I feel like there's really not much I can do to stop some of this stuff I feel like I'm playing all right okay I'll take a free one take a free one for you honest I was a two shit shit I should have put that in AD I did not see that AD had a mismatch okay okay then Anthony wet words I take it two-point ball game got the ball I did the inbound cheese that he's been doing to me all game got the spin to the rock oh I haven't done that much with my galaxy opal blade Griffin I'm just gonna pull up that's a pretty good shot yeah beauty 10-point game it's almost single digits boys it's almost single digits oh yes AD free bucket holy fuck this AD is horrible you're telling me Jared Dudley standing there stopped you from getting that point 2k makes me so mad I hate this I hate this I'm so I can't play this game for whole year dude I can only play this game for the exact amount of time that I play it for which is I would I would have a stroke I would have a heart attack Edwards Anthony wetwoods really put in the team on his back right now oh Blake Blake why straw single-digit game I just don't really know how bad just work but I see a dick of this fucking game spot on her versus a contested one he straps it in my face I'm over it dude how am I supposed to come back when you let this motherfucker do shit like that how am I supposed to play throw up cross-court fucking lob I need to cut this I had it at six points at one point are you joking you know it is maybe this guy is just like a fourth point or a fourth-quarter choker I am not trash in fourth I'm trash in the third historically 8 seconds left I can get last shot now tomorrow tomorrow perfect with point 8 no time on the clock still a 10-point ball game since the first quarter we have just been net neutral my first quarter was horrible I now got a really clutch up in the fourth if we want to win this game get out of the paint miles okay okay I'll take a free beat Jordan keeps switching from a dunk to a layup it's just a hell out of me all right Carmelo except we can't fucking shoot I have missed so many open threes it is unbelievably frustrating I'd rather lose a close game where like everything's fair this is just shit I know you did not just know I know you did not just miss that either why is the more getting why is that his ball this is unbelievably wack dude I just get to name one it's a little too little too late this has been the worst game this is so stupid I felt like no matter what I do I have absolutely no control over this this is the meta to shoot fucking trash shots yeah he's ours it's just better than me but I'm still frustrated with how shitty annoying this is ending the game off with a me amal cova I guess I'm not upset about that relax and that's the game right there unbelievably bad three-point shooting from my team in that game wide open completely wide open I got outscored by 10 in the first and I'll score by 10 in the fourth and I held it together in the second James Wiseman off the bench did more than Anthony Davis did look at the three-point shooting 0 for one Michael Jordan 0 for one call Anthony 0 for 2 RJ Hampton 0 for 2 Steph Curry not a single I didn't as 0 for 8 not a single one of those was guarded but I lose my player now too that sucks damn I'm frustrated one way one loss right there that one hurts and you know what I'm not even mad about taking out Anthony Davis is wise been played better off the bench so Anthony Davis does not get to stick with the team but I'll hurt the soul so I'm gonna pull wise minute power forward and Blake Griffin at center I'm gonna try this out in the next game but team is back to what it used to look like and I'm okay with it I see boys in the next episode peace out

I have likened energy budgets to your bank account and will use that idea to diagnose surface temperature trends. In banking, if you deposit more money in your account than you withdraw, your account balance will grow. But if you withdraw more than you deposit, your account balance will shrink. Using radiation to construct an energy budget is similar. If an object absorbs more radiation than it emits, then its temperature will increase. It will warm up because more radiation is coming in than is going out. On the other hand, if an object absorbs less radiation than it emits, its temperature will decrease. It will cool because more radiation is going out than is coming in and being absorbed. So to figure out if you have a net gain or loss of radiation, you take the difference between your incoming radiation and outgoing radiation. For the Earth's surface, we use this equation. We have downwelling solar and downwelling infrared as our sources of incoming absorbed radiation and upwelling infrared radiation as outgoing emitted radiation. A positive result means a net gain in radiation and the Earth's surface warms up. A negative result means a net loss in radiation and the Earth's surface cools. Let's look at an example from Penn State University on May 8, 2017. To get our bearings on the graph, the red curve shows downwelling solar radiation which is coming to the ground and being absorbed. The blue curve shows downwelling infrared radiation, which is radiation coming to the Earth from clouds and air molecules in the atmosphere. The green curve shows upwelling infrared radiation, which is radiation that's being emitted from the Earth. To get a sense of what's going on here, let's start by looking at the solar curve. It's flat at 0 watts per square meter until just after 10Z, which is 6AM local time at Penn State on May 8 because daylight saving time is in effect. After sunrise around that time, the amount of downwelling solar increases and the curve is mostly smooth except for a few wiggles, which is telling us that skies were mostly clear. Then after 17Z, the solar curve jumps around quite a bit and there are some really big decreases because of clouds scattering some incoming solar radiation back to space. We also see some small upward bumps in the downwelling infrared curve because the clouds were emitting some additional IR radiation to the ground, too. So what if we want to calculate a net gain or loss of radiation at local noon? That's 16Z on May 8 at Penn State and we just have to read our values off the graph and plug them into our equation. It looks like incoming solar would be about 1,000 watts per square meter at 16Z and we just have to plug that into our equation. Upwelling infrared radiation looks to be about 250 watts per square meter. So those are our two sources of incoming radiation at the surface. Our upwelling infrared is our emitted radiation marked by the green curve and it would be about 400 watts per square meter so we have to subtract 400 in our equation. Crunch the numbers and we end up with a positive result of 850 watts per square meter. Dawn was warming up at local noon because we had a net gain in radiation at that time. More radiation was coming in and being absorbed than was being emitted. In reality, other factors impact temperature, too, but we're going to ignore those for now and just focus on the impacts of radiation on temperature trends. If we wanted to do a calculation at night time, we could do that, too. Let's do one before dawn at 9Z. That's 5AM local time at Penn State on May 8. Put the little bump up in downwelling infrared at this time, suggesting some cloudiness. Again, we just have to read the values off the graph and put them into our equation. There's obviously no contributions from the sun at 9Z because it's before the sun comes up. So downwelling solar is 0 watts per square meter. Downwelling infrared is about 300 watts per square meter and upwelling infrared is about 320 watts per square meter. So we take 300 and we subtract 320 and we get a result of negative 20 watts per square meter. That's a small negative result and the ground would be cooling very slightly since we have a small net loss of radiation. A little more radiation is leaving than is coming in and being absorbed. So clouds acting as space heaters at this time were able to boost downwelling infrared radiation almost enough to erase the radiation deficit and nearly stop the nighttime decrease in temperature at this time.

The House of Representatives has asked the federal government to direct the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission to halt the proposed increase in electricity tariff shadow to take effect from June with immediate effect. Adducting a motion sponsored by the Repad, the House said Nigerians were already passing through difficult times, and therefore more bottom should not be added to them.

Fair Webservices - by Cornelius Schumacher
|
The Free Software Definition gives us a clear framework for how we can be in control of our computing when running software ourselves. When using web services this is not enough. There are additional problems, such as privacy or unfair terms of services. How can we come to a definition what a web service needs to respect the freedoms of users? The Fair Web Services initiative is trying to give an answer for operators and users of services. Learn how it does that.

My name is Cornelius Schumacher and I would like to talk about an initiative I started over the last couple of weeks That's the fair web services initiative. And what is this all about? We have achieved a lot of freedom by running free software ourselves So next cloud is a great example you can control about your data by running the software yourself But actually we also all use a lot of web services, which are run by other people and there we give up a lot of the freedoms We have achieved so what can we do to actually get some of our freedoms back and make sure that we have the same control about our Freedoms when we are using web services and not only when we are using software we run ourselves And to illustrate the point I created a nice web service. That's bike shed as a service. It's brand new. It's awesome It's great. You can upload your bikes there and you get this beautiful protective shed Which makes sure your bikes are well protected and dry and everything It's green because I like green and I took the freedom to choose the color of the bike shed because I'm running the service And because I'm a nice guy and I release everything as free software, of course So that's what I do. This is the complete code. I hereby release it under the AGPL So feel free to use it feel free to do everything what you want with that. It's complete. It works and It's free. So we are all fine, right? Everything everything is great Unless you actually read my terms of service Well, you probably can't There's one sentence in there and because I'm a nice guy will tell you what is what is what it's saying there It says you give exclusive user rights of all your bike data to the service provider So this is only because I need to earn some money and I need to create a business model on top of that So I need some rights from you. Yeah, but it's a very simple clause. Just just click okay, and you will be fine And it's actually not only about your data Of course, I have all the locks of the service which is running and everything is locked there So I own the data of course as well So I need that because I want to run some business on top of that to earn money to create free software So but it's a free service, of course you have free uploads you have unlimited storage and everything you you can use that wherever and Again, because I'm a nice guy. I provide you a convenience feature. So you are allowed to download your data In the original form if you pay me just five dollars a month. That's a great API for that maybe and I also have the enterprise account which is also great because this is for my friends They're my friends in the insurance and advertisement industry So so they'd like to have this data so I can answer money so I can write better free software for for all of you So you just pay with your data. You just pay with your money and the industry pays for the rest. So that's that's great But is that actually great Have we solved the problem and they're actually much many other problems like some I touched some of them in terms of service lock in Sustainability what happens if I go out of business who protects your bikes then? Privacy metadata The triple payment you pay in all kinds of forms Security a hack ability. Can you change the color of the bike shed? I'm running the service. So it will be green And there are a couple of attempts to solve this Some are quite familiar to some of you And I think they are all great but what this missing is something which puts all these things together and really covers the full Web service experience basically and that's why why I started to collect things and I started this initiative of fair web Services to collect criteria what makes a web service actually fair so that you can run it without giving up your freedoms and I use the term fair because free is kind of ambiguous and can be Misleading and it's kind of reflecting what this is about. It's more about a contract between the user and the operator It's it's not so easy as a free software. I can enforce everything by a license and the fair web services idea is based on five principles Substitutability so that I can actually exchange the service by something else I can run the better bike shed and the user has the freedom to choose the bike shed and the color Transparency that I know what is happening with my data where it's thought how it's processed Of course respecting privacy making sure the data secure and a fair model of operation So paying for access to your own data is kind of not fair and to express that in more detail We collected a number of criteria and I won't go through all the of them But they have to be API is how to access the data. There has to be clear terms of use They have to be documented processes how data is success Paying for services. Okay, but artificial barriers for paying for your own data. That's something which is not fair So these are the criteria I want to discuss and we are the beginning here and I would really like to Invite you to join the discussion so that we maybe can come to a state where we can put a batch This is a fair web service on the website where operators have a way how to tell users. I'm respecting these criteria I want this cyber web service to be fair and also for users to be able to choose so we could start with a kind of a self certification so that Once we have a finished set of criteria people can say okay I respect them and users can use that but this could also grow into a more serious thing like like a professional Certification with an organization behind that which is actually checking if the service provider Here's a tears to the criteria So this is the idea. I want to discuss this further. There's the website fair web services dog It's not running the bike shed, but it contains all the information. I told you So and this should also be the place where we can discuss things. I invite you to go there invite you to leave your comments there and your thoughts and today at 1430 in age 3004 I will hold a workshop and I invite you to be there so we can discuss these criteria We can make sure that we agree on something which actually Retains our freedoms when we are running free web services and that's it. Thank you

Well, don't ever try it on me, dude! How's it going everybody? DatoDoy here with another round of Dragon Ball Fighters ranked matches. This time we're going up against a team of Beerus, Kid Buu and Trunks, actually a pretty scary team for me, considering Kid Buu has always been kind of a nightmare for me defensive-wise I should say. I just suck against blocking the dude, always have, probably always will. And we're also playing a very meta team, Piccolo, Goku and Bardock. So it's hard to have any, oh no that was Buu, I thought that was Trunks. Oh wow, he gets to act after that, okay. I thought maybe I could jab him out. Ooh, little extension. Oh, don't even try it. I saw that coming a mile away, alright, get this EX sliding. Oh, he likes to reflect, okay. That's good knowledge, we'll take that. Did he just phase behind me? Dude, I know you're a god of destruction and everything, but that was some extra anime stuff. That was just me not blocking, oh he doesn't. Alright, in these situations you just want to play a little bit of defense. I can't believe I got hit with the Beerus auto combo. Okay, that's the end of Beerus. Oh wow, that was unfortunate that that's how Beerus ended, but I guess you get what you get sometimes. Alright, are we a, yeah we are. Holy moly, he acted out of reflect. That's, I can't believe we didn't get punished for that, alright, set that up. Okay, now we're going to try to do the snap back route. This is why we're a meta team, I dropped it. Alright, we still have a chance. We hit it. Holy guacamole, alright, time to loot. Hmm, we messed it up. Well, don't ever try it on me, dude. Big drops, big drops, big drops. No, how do we miss it up twice? It's because I didn't decide what assist I wanted to use. Oh well, at least we're showing off what Piccolo can do these days. Oh, that's a knockout. Yep, that's going to be a very good one for us. And we just, we want to get as much blue health as we can back, right? At this point, nobody left to snap back. Piccolo's assist is actually really good in this matchup. So it's hard to feel like we're losing out on him, watch this. Hmm, okay, that was a great defensive option to reflect there. Uh, but we still, oh, cheesy goodness. Oh no, oh no. Poor choice 5e, probably should have gone into a level one right away. Hmm, nice, catches the back tech and that's going to be the end of Bardock. I didn't mention it by the way, this is Goichi's team now. This is the team he'll be running in the finals, obviously. Obviously a little better than me, but you can get the basic gist of things. Bardock's crazy, Goku is just an all-around fantastic character. You see, this is why, this is why me and Kid Buu aren't exactly the best of friends. Okay, well, uh, Sparking didn't do him any good because he was, he was just so low anyway. All right, we take game one. Whoo, all right, we didn't exactly, we didn't bring the heat. Let's not tell a lie, I cannot tell a lie. All right, but we, we did okay. We did okay. I think a big reason we did, as well as we did is because, uh, yeah. Beerus got knocked out super early, he didn't get a chance to switch him out of down tech. Freedom. Beautiful reflect. I was trying to buy time, make him with it, but no, he just kept it. All right, we're going to go straight into sliding here. Try to bake this. He, you wake up buttons. I never in my wildest dreams. I thought that was a behind the back slide. Oh, nice extension there. Speak in a losing character's early. That's a killer. That's, that's what we call in the business a confidence killer. All right, we got to act fast. Getting hit by Beerus buttons always feels extra worse. All right, it looks like he thinks, um, oh, double overhead, I couldn't block it. I was going to say it looks like he thinks that mix up is a little more dangerous than it is. If he does it too late, darn it, darn it, darn it. All right, we, we, no, no, no, no, I was going to say we spark here. Yikes. Not the greatest game to performance. This is a bad sign. We're still bar docked though. We can still bar dock it up every now and again. Sliding for the pure knockdown of it all. There we go. Bait that out. No problem. Hopefully one bar settles the deal. Come on. Ah, it's big. I'm trying to go to college, man. You're making me pay these bills. That's, that's, ah, big unfortunate that you're charging me through the nose for rent. Oh, kid boot. All right, I'm sparking here. I don't want to take this mix up. Oh, wow. It's always those dragon rushes that get me. The ones where it's just so obvious. The buttons is like, it's your turn. You do it, you, whatever you want. That's when the dragon rushes. The scariest. Oh, nice. Okay. There's going to be a level three hard knock. Ooh, I didn't expect it to come there, but are we a scrub? Do we wake up level three? We don't. We're out. We're out. We're out. Oh, I hate when they take the hit. Come on. Heal, heal, heal. Oh, we're dead. We're dead. We're dead. Okay. Didn't have to be like that, but I see, I see where we stand. Got to blow up the whole mountain region, huh? Not going to lie, bro. A little selfish of you. Wow. Wow. Okay. I mean, we just played a really poor game with Piccolo. He got taken out too early. And there we see the consequences of that action. Now let's try to make some adjustments, play a little bit better defense, make sure Piccolo doesn't go down, uh, nothing we can do there. Wow. That was quick. There we go. We're in. We're going to build a lot of meter here. That's Piccolo's, uh, specialty. I'll take it, dude. I'll take it. Oh, no. I fear I may have done this to myself. I knew something about that combo didn't feel right. Nice back dash. He knew. He knew I was going to go for it. Dang. I knew something. You got to get the kick in. Yeah. Take the guard cancel. Take the hit. Take the hit. Play a little bit of defense. It'll all get better soon. Okay. You might remember this character. His name's Piccolo, uh, technique dropping combos. He texts that. All right. Nice. Nice. It's a shame that he texts that, but that was just good stuff. And he was blocking too. So that wasn't just mashing. All right. Get another hit with Piccolo. This is where the team starts to hit its stride here. Huh? Oh, wow. He was trying to force something there. Mm, big, big shame. Nice back dash. Oh, that was a slow dragon rush and my brain still couldn't comprehend what was happening. Haha. If my brain was actively checking, like, where's the kid boo assist? Hit me. Oh, man. Did you think I was going to stand there like an actual player of this game? Too obvious, dude. Come on. Nice. All right. We get him with the little, the little Piccolo twinkle toes. We got to throw those in great normals on Piccolo too. I'm not even clutch. This team is so good. Goichi, you got a real winner on your hands, bro. I'm an idiot. I am one big idiot. Oh, cross up. I didn't. Huh. Hello. My name is Dr. Doa and I suffer from trying to style. It wasn't even that stylish. I just wanted to special beam cannon. I love the move. Big fan of the show. I'm expecting a super dash here soon. We out. Oh, come on. Come on. If I can't finish this game, I'm going to, I'm going to lose it. And not just my mind. I'm going to lose everything. Okay, good. Okay, just do the standard most boring combo you can. Okay, nice, nice, nice. Oh, you're, I like how you're probably sitting there like, Dota, you had two full characters and sparking blast left. Why were you even worried? You guys must be new to the channel. Hi, nice to meet you. Don't, it's hard to say not to run because not everybody goes first to three. That was first to two. So great games to my opponent. I really do respect that. But now since we're here and I'm definitely not fighting another batch at this time, I might as well show you what the game plan is for this team in case you want to go and play it on your own. Okay, so this is going to seem a little weird since this is the first time I've ever broken down a team in a ranked video. But the main goal with this team is to just get your corner, get your opponent in a corner here. You can do this through, you know, these, they really keep the pressure. You saw that during the ranked matches. Obviously you have two great assists at your side. And these assists can also help you in terms of the corner combo. So you'll see here if I get a hit on Android 16 and I just do something very standard. Right before I go down, I call in Goku. Boom, snapback, back dash, hell zone. They're going to be forced to block this or take the hit. And if they take the hit, you just do it again. Basically, obviously you don't use that knockdown but you just do it again. Another thing that's really important about this team that you should know if you're going to play it is if you get a hit in this corner and you want to do big damage and kill, another option for you here is right now, just go right into Special Beam, quickly call out Bardock. Badabing, Badabum, just carry on right there. And you can combo, you can do more specials if you want to. You can even go into a level three. Super, super crazy stuff. And I assume this is pretty well known already but you can also catch them with a hell zone grenade down here. Kind of loop that. And then you can go into this. And then like we covered before, you can just go straight into a level one super into this and then into another level one. And then into all that, Badabing, Badabum, you're looking at a team that does a lot of damage, okay? That was me just ad-libbing a combo but definitely try that if you're playing this team. But yeah, that's pretty much it guys. Hopefully you enjoyed this weird little section after the video. Kind of interesting actually. You could see how I play it and then you can see the ideal way of playing it after the video. Let me know if you want to see more of that in the future. I don't know if I'll do that since this is such a rare occasion where you're going to be seeing a lot of this in the finals, especially this team with Goichi. If he does well, which he should. But yeah guys, down in the comments, let me know your favorite moment of the video if you enjoyed this. Also support the channel by leaving a like and subscribing if you're excited about the future of Dragon Ball Fighters and you want to stick around to see me cover it all, which I definitely will be doing as the information rolls in. I have some other videos of me playing different teams on your screen right now. So check those out if you haven't seen them yet and you're interested in them. I'm Datsudoya, hope you enjoyed the video. I'll see you in the next one.

What's it gonna take Papa Meeks, huh? What's it gonna take to not choke a close game what happened this what happened this season one Papa Meeks who won all of the close game He's dead. I don't know what it is. I don't know what's in the air. I don't know what's in the water I don't know if it's all the black tar heroin. I don't know. I don't know I didn't even get a James Robinson touchdown last game, bro I have no excuse my tears pretty good. It's 89 overall. I will say this would have been really good like a month ago We are dealing with some 94 95 overall teams, but it's close and overall we're playing good football We're literally just selling I sold last game. I went up against I'm one of the best teams I've ever played and on multiple occasions just so I should have picked better plays I should have played smarter and I did so when I said at the start of two episodes ago that the redemption tour begins We've hit a little bit of a road bump the redemption tour started out hot. We were cruising along to shoot hit a road bump Here's what's happening today. Okay, I'm placing my own prop bet my own Vegas rules So you can get in on the action the over under of today's game is going to be set at 52 You can bet over or you can bet under on top of that. I have James Robinson two plus touchdowns This is my gambling addiction coming to fruition over under 52 James Robinson over two touchdowns That is what I predict will be happening today an 89 overall squad We're two and one and I promise you boys a playoff push near Christmas, and I'm not gonna go down swinging I'm not gonna let that not oh English I'm not gonna not let that I'm done talking. I'm having a stroke. I'm having a stroke on camera. I'm spinning my wheel This guy come back to me. I would take a left guard. I'll take a left tackle. I would take him a linebacker College All right boys, we got a hundred college teams idea. This is old college rankings. Don't worry. Oh top ten team Oh my god, I'm getting so lucky Oh my god, we're gonna get a stud. We're gonna get actual stud. Okay. I'm obviously not getting turbulence We can get down to Hopkins. I don't really need my receiver Clemson do there's so many Isaiah Simmons That's probably the move brother Sean Watson Mike Williams to I think Isaiah Simmons is the move here I get that second middle linebacker. Holy shit, dude We could have gotten clapped if this one five more would have been Hawaii Air Force Navy NC State I guess I can't really laugh because I never looked at the player pool But it would be significantly more shallow than uh overlooking our hair with Isaiah Simmons So I hear he's a very good user too middle linebacker Isaiah Simmons 90 overall He's gonna look very nice next to Devon white. All right an awesome start to this episode our second wheel spin Hopefully a guard or a left tackle, but I don't know flashbacks pack. Do they have a garden left? I assume flashbacks are kind of just skill players So I don't know we could get a better one receiver better than AJ Green would be nice I don't really Pretend that didn't happen. I'm Alrighty, this is a really that is a horrible moment. Oh, I can't believe it just happened. Oh The challenge wheel and then a dub if you can't tell I'm an antsy. I'm a little upset after last game I'm an antsy to get a dub challenge wheel sauce me up 140 plus QBR Oh, it's hard, but we've done it before we've had perfect pass ratings in a lot of games You got to throw a lot of deep touchdowns and you can't miss a lot of throws, but very possible the bowl of us Piper's up there on the top three love to see it and he's got ever some walls Dean on Sanders and Randy Moss It's a comparable top three. We both had 95 94 94 So right here realistically is probably a 92 or 93 overall team. I've gotten 89. So this is a relatively fair matchup Mariota, I'm so tempted to scream a blitz right now James Robinson touchdowns perfect QB rating and a dub. That is the perfect episode. I'm blitzing with Simmons. Oh Get there Fred Warner. He's back on track. Did I swear Fred Warner has sacks? That's like it's like how we win games, bro. Oh, no, give me on Lars Taylor. Give me a little sir. Yes I'm in coverage. All right. There's play action left side crosser might be there But he's gonna throw this one and Ramses gonna take it. What a start to the game. Can we return it? Let's go Ramsey. Oh, we can't return it. We don't want to we want a perfect pass rating And we want a we want James Robinson touchdowns. I'm looking for Damian. Oh It's not open. Oh, oh, oh All right, so there's deer wall underneath and I think that's feel orange. Are they guys say a 52s rule Accuracy is what's in question. I think he got it. Anyway, what a stud first in 10 Ooh little end around I like it I was hoping he juke right into my face, you know, we haven't gotten a big hit stick fumble in a long time We got so many of those at the start of this year. Oh, the zone fake jet. I don't know what the fuck Who are you kidding? How did he this is the first game I played in a while where they're not in gunbunch, and I really respect that. Oh Shot Taylor wants MPP so bad. What the fuck that was insane Big blitz. Okay. Yes, sir right there, and he's out of bounds for one for three for six yards second and ten She's gonna throw a little checky Robinson underneath. Oh, that's not even Robinson. It's Damien Harris You think Robert Hunt is wide open. How hysterical would it be if we got this one, Robert? James Robinson Oh, that is not what you want to do sir. Did he make the pass? He did! Mecca Vesta so bien zone, and that's how you get a 148 right there. That's how you get a rage quit I don't know my passer rating Well, there's very good news. We locked in our players. We get away and we get a rage quit spin I can't count that for the challenge really. I have no idea what that pass rating is I can confidently say we need him to lock in our players Our rage quit will spin is gonna land on a training store pack. We've opened a lot of these recently I'm gonna go heavyweights again, and I'm gonna hope I can get anybody who's literally anybody who's not Rob Havenstein If it's Rob Havenstein, that would be so unlucky Okay, here's my question. If I don't see the animation should I count it? Let's decide right now before we see I'm gonna not count it. This could have been the best pull, but I don't want to count that shit That's so lame. Our newest player, it was a right guard So that would have been pretty good, but I'm gonna play by my own rules that I just made up Which is that that shouldn't count. The pack animations like half the reason they open this shit. It's so addicting. Oh, yeah He's reels you in! Dude, you've done it on behalf of Steve Nell, Quinn and Williams! 92! We get an overall upgrade But I don't know if we can say we get a team upgrade. I think the right guard might have been better either way No, you know what that is really good actually. 92 d-tag. I got 85 in there at best right now Yeah, which is Glace Campbell. We'll go there and then PunaFord is actually gonna come out Cuz Glace Campbell's gonna go right here. 89 overall team still and we're in the same position We were in the first episode. Alright, so I'm gonna let you guys see like this We get one player right here and whatever player this is they're on the line for this next game And we're moving ourselves closer to the playoffs was that team will 20- Oh, I'll let you guys read that again team will 2020 record 10k each W So I spin the team wheel and however many wins the team had. Oh wait, didn't I get the Lions on this last time? Shit we're about to see I get 10k per win. They had last year. Come on focus up focus up Saints redskins No Ravens. Yes, what was their 2020 record 11 and fuck you the Steelers were 12 and 4 last year What the fuck and the Browns are 11 and 5 the Bengals were 4 and 11. What a crazy flip of this division Thank you Ravens for being good at football. I don't want to do this, but I have to fine I'll get stupid fucking offensive lineman. I want to go the fucking weirdo, dude. Oh Lamas Brown It literally sounds did he blame for the Lions? It sounds like a fake name It sounds like his name is Thomas Brown and someone saying you took an L like WMG or LMG Lamas Brown, you're shitting me. All right, Lamas. Welcome to the team buddy If you better not get spamblets off the edge of Lamas that takes us to a 90 overall too. That's warmest That's warmest Brown to you guys takes us up to a 90. All right, let's hop in and I will use the same challenge as the last one I didn't get a chance really to complete it So I'm gonna get 140 plus QB raving. Holy shit. He has the understood that just came out Well, no, I didn't they came out a week ago. I'd take it. I smell it It's been a while man Ramsay put his fucking grease a little mince on that. I had it That is the worst throw you could have thrown pitch it. Yes, sir. Oh wait, that didn't help me at all. Oh Oh Am I just gonna run one more? Are we actually back? Do I actually have my mojo back? We're about to find out right here Clean right into J Robbie No, you suck. No, I deserve the INT. I didn't see that dude at all. Holy shit Not until after I already clicked the button and I see him. I thought that was completely butt naked wide open Wait actually no one lucky. I was on it with two different people Let's just march down this field with perfect passes and get that QB rating In drums, you gotta cut a little harder than that buddy to get the double team right here Yep, we get it. Oh and Damien Harris Damien Harris is wide open Not a man in sight sweet a little bit And now we just need a touchdown with James Robinson. That's amazing for the QB are we don't get the touchdown for the QB are though Maybe I try and throw this to James Robinson. Let's see if James Robinson can get open sketchy. No, you're not in Let's see if he blitzes again. Come on. Give me the push As far as the QB rating is concerned, I did want a passing touchdown there But we still had a great throw Damien Harris was so much daylight seven to six great answer after throwing a stupid I got a QB spy. I got a little Lawrence Taylor action here He throws a deep one He's going for from the 41 ooh a real punks. Actually, do I believe this? I don't know if I believe this. Yeah, I don't I don't even think Bajorcas can throw it for the fact that he didn't get sacked is impressive. All right, we're gonna stick with this It was so successful See if it's still there. Okay Vince will work just fucking I got that glitchy past thing Do you remember that last guy is he gonna quit because of that you might quit because of that That is super frustrating. I think he's trying to challenge the play I don't think he realizes you can't challenge him again. I'm sorry really happened to me though So now I think it's I think I'm even in terms of that happening. I'm gonna stick right to a third and four He's on a d-line and so I should be able to throw these easy ones. Oh Why yes Let's go and I can go for two here and try and make this a two-possession game Oh Just gotta make something happen How the oh my god, what a fucking play I thought I could stop and go in all right. Let's go for the blitz no shot Big head and he's looking at a fourth and six pretty much I feel like this is the game figure. He doesn't get this will probably rage quit Left-side crosser is definitely there unless we rock him. Oh we'll play action Wow pits has been so open these crossers are just killing me. Are you stepping up you? 13 to 13. It's gonna be a good game. What happened to me. I don't think that's happened to me yet this year Of course it happens here in this close game against a God squad. Where else would it happen right guys? Hey fucking runs it all the way to the edge I'm not switching place I'm used it's easy It's gonna say user D lineman and I just got shit on my kicker turn. I'm not switching Big blitz wallers got it see what's funny now is if they would give me a kick return fumble The score would be where it should be which is me up by eight or up by seven. You know that not gonna happen All right, wait, he's gonna probably use you this now, huh? Oh now. He's actually homeless as fuck Never seen anything like that my whole life. Oh my god. He literally the game hurt me. It literally hurt me I better be am I recording? I'm recording. Oh, that's so worried a big stop Quinn and Williams Look at how hard this dude is trying to cheese I've never seen somebody try this hard to cheese literally downing himself in the fourth quarter You are the luckiest motherfucker This is embarrassing, bro. Oh, that's huge dude I was so concerned if he converts that I swear to God. I think he could have done it He couldn't pull that shit off. All right, let's see if he tries to user it. He literally still doesn't he deserve that That's the only thing I do he deserve that one look at the comeback 16 for 20 to 50 yards three touchdowns one play cross-track I assume he follows it now now Ooh, and we stay in bounds and that'll chew the clock. We're gonna dive in Are the blocks there they are Does he have one already I try to think if he has one I don't think he does I guess we'll see at the end of this game We have been lethal. Oh my god. My mojo's back. I win the close games now Set your feet throw it you boys gotta be so proud of me right now. You gotta be so proud of me right now Yes, two touchdowns. Oh no James Robinson did have two touchdowns. I saw that right on the stat sheet So we definitely have to hold up. Let me go to a NFL QBR calculator. All right. Here we go boys I calculated it for 21 attempts 17 completions to 70 yards, which I don't think he had and three touchdowns and one reception It's 138.49 the interceptions screwed me. It wasn't very likely at all. I'm looking at the calculations right now Wow, I was I would have been so fucking close though. Oh my god So I don't complete my challenge with but I won the game That was such a clutch game to win that gives me reinstilled confidence That's really what that game and two touchdowns for mr. Robinson boob out there at the end So there's one up to an 88 and two takes me to a 90 All that's left is two more touchdowns for a 92 and then a 95 90 overall James Robinson huge W boys Alright, I'm not recording any more wheel muts until I see some new content four and one and we are approaching Christmas I gotta do my playoffs push on Christmas, bro I gotta do it. All right, boys. I love you. See you the next banger. Let's get this money. Peace

How to Pronounce: Word Stress and Phrasal Verbs
|
Word Stress and Phrasal Verbs
Hello! I’m John Russell.
In today’s lesson, let’s explore one area of connection between grammar and pronunciation. Specifically, let’s examine how Americans use word stress when saying phrasal verbs.
Word stress refers to saying a word louder or in a higher pitch. It draws attention to important pieces of information.
What about phrasal verbs? Phrasal verbs are groups of words that have a meaning different from what the individual words suggest. Phrasal verbs consist of a verb and another short word or words.
Consider this example:
Pick out
It has the verb “pick” and the short word “out.”
Americans generally stress the last word in a phrasal verb. Listen to this sentence:
He picked out a gift for his mother.
Note that I placed stress on out – the last word in the phrasal verb.
Let’s consider another example: pick up
He picked up his children from school.
If you compare the examples we have explored, you might notice one reason why Americans stress the last word in phrasal verbs. It is often the last word in the phrasal verb that changes the meaning.
When you use phrasal verbs, pay careful attention to the ending of the phrasal verb. Try to stress it when practice speaking.
That’s all for today! Keep up the good work.

Have you ever thought about what sandwiches can teach us about speech organization and structure? If your mind works like mine then the answer may be yes. In case it doesn't though, let me explain. How many of you like sloppy joes? If not then maybe you should move back to Mars or whatever distant planet you came from because they're awesome. I love how the meat, sauce, onions and other ingredients all mix together so much that you can't tell where the meat ends and the sauce begins. If you're really lucky it might even seep into the bread so that you have to eat it with a fork. De-lish. While this kind of mushy goodness makes for an amazing sandwich, it doesn't make for a good speech organization. When your main points all blend together so much that you can't tell where one ends and another begins, it makes the critical ideas of your speech indistinct and it's confusing for the audience. When it gets really bad it's even hard to identify when the speaker has moved from the intro into the body of the speech or from the body into the conclusion like the sloppy joes seeping into the bread. You need to create some separation between each of these parts and between the main points themselves so that they're distinguishable from one another. In sandwich parlance your speech organization should be less like a sloppy joe and more like a BLT. It's easy to see the different layers in a BLT because the ingredients are solid and don't run together. The delicious bacon stands apart from the tomato which holds its ground against the lettuce. Even the mayonnaise does a pretty good job of not getting mixed up with all the other items. The bread also keeps from getting soggy because the ingredients are able to remain distinct. Like a BLT a well organized speech will have clear and distinct structure with easily identifiable main points. The best way to accomplish this is with a strong preview statement in the introduction well-defined connectives meaning transitions and signposts and a thorough review in the conclusion. All of these things will work together to give your speech sharply defined structure emphasize the main points and make it easier for the audience to follow along. So as you prepare your next speech remember sloppy joes are good for eating but not ideal for public speaking order up a nice BLT instead.

How Open Source Helped My Career: A History from an Average Joe - Fabricio Buzeto, bxblue [Presented in English]

Hi everyone, my name is Fabrizio Buzeto, but you can call me Fabs and I'm going to present today about how open source helped with my career And this is the this story of an average person If you're expecting here to hear about A hero's journey. So this is not the place We are very used to listen to stories of how people Overcome their hardships and how they achieve success and how they manage to Get to a new level Of course, I'm going to tell about How how open source Helped me to improve my career, but this is not a hero's journey. There is no end to it There are some lessons along the way But it's not my intention here to present everything as how every hardship Managed to help me achieve some kind of success in my life but I hope you enjoy and Even though it's not a hero's journey It's an average person's journey and it can be quite enjoyable Right, so first of all my intention today is to Get away a bit from this small circle that we used to talk about that is famous open source people There are many many presentations about how this person's Achieve a success how they contributed to the community How their projects helped other people and this is good And I don't see this is a bad thing but there is too much content about it and Also, we have a lot of content about how people Can achieve a status of a full-time person in the open source community? How can they? Become a full-time worker in this area and these are very very important people But this is also not my intention here my intention is to focus on the other circles in our life that is people that are Occasionally working with open source like an occasional contributor people that once of in a while they do something related to open source or General tech people that they don't even see themselves as part of the open source community or the open source environment And also other people that are not intact that they live in a world where open source influence there Make having influence in their lives Then they're not aware. So these are the people that I'm trying to focus here And I believe the examples that I have here they can help Drive a little bit this outer circles towards the inner circles a little bit And if I can manage to do that, I'll be very very pleased Starting with myself I want to tell you that I'm a full-time developer. I've been coding since 2002 This presentation is full of my personal opinions. So be warned about that Of course, I have the influence of friends and other people that I talk about How open source changed their lives and how open source is part of their lives and This of course changes how I see open source and how I see the contributions of open source in my life but it's worth noticing that when you have a Space of one person it can be quite biased But still I think it's enjoyable and I think it's worth Talking about so let's go I come from this small place called Brasilia. It's the capital city of Brazil And I think it's worth talking about because my career in computer science starts here My career as a coder person starts here and since it's the capital of the Brazil It's a place where politics takes a huge part and the public sector is very very strong Because of the public sector I got my first contact with Computing so back in the 90s my father worked in one of the The computing companies for the government and I got in contact with my first computer Which was a mainframe back then and I didn't know anything about it, but I loved and I said, okay, so I want to work with computers because they sound fun and And I spent most of my time unaware of what open source was Most of what I knew was how computers work it. I loved disassembled and assembled them and I got interested in them and I even remember one funny story that for me back then there was just one single open set operational system which was windows back then and I remember one friend asking me Do you know Linux and I Was back in 95 and I said, what's Linux and he said no, it's an operational system. I said, what's an operational system? He said it's just like windows and I was like, no, no, there is just windows and DOS Which like windows and he said no, no, no, it's a different one and when he showed me I said, okay it's just like DOS and I wasn't aware of open source until I got into the university when I got into university I first have my contact with open source and most of my contact with open source my first contact of Open source in the university was back again the fight between operational systems so it was windows versus Linux and most of the people in the university was talking how Linux was better how Linux was Brought you more freedom and there was this whole discussion how the movement of open source could help you improve in your career as a developer and that everybody should take part on it and I think this whole discussion Was very nice for me as a as a young developer to know because you have this sense of How this profession that you are taking part of Is involved in something bigger and when you see that movement you you you can feel that You can take more part and be more involved in bigger things and it was back then that I started working with Linux and And and the the feeling of working with Linux back then was very hacky and it reminded me of how hackers work it in when you are in in the movies because Hackers are always using the terminal and you have to remember the commands and you're always trying to compose things and Trying to just solve these little puzzles So this was very fun and this incited me to to learn more and know more and have this whole new Movement around it was very very helpful for me as a developer And it was a gateway to to learn more about what is open source and how open source works and The universe was also a very nice Environment to learn about it because there was many people Involved in this area in talking about it and presenting and you have very many conferences and presentations and talks And so this was very helpful for me as a developer But not for everyone because when you talk about open source in this way And you have all this discussion about what's free in open source the different degrees of freedom the different licenses and How how this is a movement? It sounds fun and Interesting if you are you get hooked to it, but if somebody Had to see this as a friction point It's just a barrier to understand what's open source and especially when you talk about Open source as a movement I come from a country that has many Many problems with Different types of movement, especially socialist movements and people thinking What about this free stuff? How can we make money? How will you be survived if it's not a product or something? And it was very hard for some people to accept open source because I if it's free It's low quality if it's free How people will be paid to do this is it's a socialist software movement? How does it work? So this is one of the barriers that we saw that I saw with many people in With open source so even among my friends in the university not everybody was on board and They don't even want it to know and like I said most people got their first contact with Windows And when you're saying no, you have to get rid of Windows and you have to brace the free open source environment with Linux And you are wrong about it You create this friction people don't want to change they need to change you have to make it as an option not as a Obligatory thing so this is something that that was very very hard And I think it was a mistake on how the movement Especially where I was presented itself and For me, this is the first contact that most people have with open source is as the operation systems Most people outside development They are not aware of what our operational system is Even our days if you're most people Not even think about their computers. They'll think about when they think about computers in general they'll think about their cell phones and Both major Operational systems today. They are based on open source even though Mac OS is it's closed it has a huge contribution from open source and people are are Involved and they are they're impacted by open source even today and When and even today we created this kind of friction with people Oh, if you want to be a true developer, you have to choose Mac OS or otherwise you are losing time Configuring lots of things or if you're a true developer, you have to use Linux. You should not use Windows so this kind of friction it's very harmful and Me myself, I see that the operation systems should be free What we should be focusing here is how all this operation operational systems today They have contributions from open source from Windows to Mac to Linux even though the degrees of Contributions are different. All these companies have involvement in open source and we can use this as As leverage to introduce people to why open source is important Instead of creating this kind of friction and understand this was a very important moment to myself because these open apps to Have more conversation instead of having conversation was I I would just bully Another person that is developing because that person likes to use Windows and convince them to use Linux I'll just embrace that they use Windows and ask about What other contributions they can have there are many open source Platforms that they can use in Windows that will help them. So instead of get them away from open source They can get closer to open source So after the spirit in the universe I started learning a bit about Java and Java back then was a huge deal was the main Object-oriented programming language And for a beginner like myself Was it was very nice to learn something that helped me to improve my coding skills and Since I was in the capital city of the country. There are many corporate Initiatives that involve a Java so it was very easy to get a job using Java back then So I started coding Java got a job involved in it and And even though Java Is not a Symbol of open source as a language It has a huge community around open source And I remember back then that the most iconic one was a Pash Pash has a huge library of Components that you could use with Java and they were all open source and you had many others Outside the Pasha that we could side on like J unit and others and This got me hooked up like even though I was working in a corporate environment with many paid and pay walled options I Worked with even a closed Implementations of Java like Oracle Oracle back then now everything's Oracle and And But this got me interested in open source and one of the things that Most interested me here is that learning more about this language that incentivized people to create and contribute within open source made me More involved in in this community and Then I started looking for other languages in most language today. They are open source So the major language today like Ruby Python and JavaScript all of them are open source And they are the first contact that you're gonna have most developers today. They are going to start with an open source language and you you you you get involved with it and This is a very good start if you if you want to to bring people in and make them more involved with software development and especially software development in open source, so This is the second stage that I believe everybody should take a part on After that Again on a patch. I remember my first time contributing with open source. So I remember when just JSF was released The first implementation was made available by a patch and And the first implementation was very buggy very unstable and I was looking for some kind of way to To make something work. I have this bug in my code and I could not find it. And so I just download the code and In Get involved with the code reading it and debugging it. I found this very characteristic code. It was like a six or seven if statements One inside the other and I just made my first contribution there and I managed to patch it up send a contribution and I felt so so amazing because like I could fix something in a library that was not mine and I really needed for that work that I need to to present and to to deliver to to my client and And there was not much bureaucracy involved because When I I did this I did just for my project and then I just submitted But I could use for my project my fix my patch without needing the permission from the apache Foundation to use it. So it felt amazing and Most people have the same situation So today the major platforms that I've been used like rails or media or Django They are open source and anyone can just download it Get to see the code. They can debug it and find things that they can improve and get better at it so with Rails for example, I did many many patches in many internal structures within rails, so I didn't have to wait for the next Next version to improve it The same with others like Django and Meteor so platforms and frameworks. They are the second Best thing that people can can use to to improve and to to get better and get this new contact with open source So if you look at the world today, we have 27 million software developers in the world Almost half of them have a github account But not most of them are actively contributing with open source This is not a huge issue, but this shows how unbalanced this is Not everybody will have the the urge to contribute and we should not expect that I'm not saying of course that all github accounts or having a github account is necessary to contribute But this is a good proxy to evaluate the numbers and we have a huge amount of Projects like we have more than 50 million open source projects in the world right now and they are growing most of the the new developers the The world sees like one one point half million new developers coming to the market every year and No, but not everyone will contribute with one of these projects But when we compare with the working population We have more than three billion people in the working population of the world We developers are a very very small part of them and we should not expect everyone to be contributing with code and especially because we should look at open source and Not as just the type of product that we're doing or the type of code that we're building We should look at open source as one of the ways that we can build software as we can build products Because it's one of the main strategies that are available being open source can be a huge advantage and Giving this kind of feel to people outside Coding people it's very very important and this is becoming more and more clear to to more areas of Software development as we can see many top companies nowadays. They embrace open source These are one of the top companies that they have as their core Open source products that everybody can contribute open eight and Work around it. They have huge communities. They have huge Ecosystems that are built around their software and being open source made them more valuable because of this strategy and we see more and more of these companies every day and This is happening not because only developers are involved in open source No, this is happening because we have more people around and Involved with developers making this decision. We have CEOs. We have Product people have signers. We have CX people and these people They are also seeing that open source can be a valuable strategy For example, why combinator one of the biggest accelerators in the world at least 10% of the The companies that they invested in the past couple of years Have been involved in products that are open source first Which means that open source is the main drive of their product the main version of their product We can cite MongoDB post hog and many others that the basis is Something that is open and free for everybody to contribute, but they are still a company that makes money and They can nurture that that community around it. So the idea here is to show that it's Being around open source and being involved in open source is a good strategy to build good products And also to build good companies and showing other people that this is a possible solution That's a possible path that should be involved. Of course, we should not Forget about major product projects in open source that are not necessarily Commercial or involved in a company specifically to have many great products and many great software that are built Around these communities and they go from small products that You can use in your everyday to two big products that are the basis of Great companies and they are all open source. They are not commercial in any way and Giving visibility to these products is important is one of the main things that we do as a community to share the Situations and this product, but it's also important to to phrase that this is one of the strategies that are available to us now talking a bit about the path that we can have To get more contact with open source, right? so usually when we're talking about open source we We focus a lot on these two Last items so we focus on creating new open source software or projects or Contributing to open source projects and software and this is good and all because New projects, they are fun they address new problems and They are what will Improve the community bringing new solutions new contributions and New ways for us to address problems that we have But this is not the only way we have other ways that we can Make our way through the through the open source community and improve and help other people to get involved as well and For me the first thing that we need to do if we want to to get involved in open sources to use And I consider everybody that is using open source to be part of the community Because they are needed if you don't have users You're not the delivering value and this is important for a commercial software as well as an open source software So using is the first part if people using you have a real problem and you are delivering value and you are part of that community as well and After you start using you can start learning about that software and Learning it's great because it means that you are interested in improving How we are using that software it means that you are involved enough to to get to know more and And to get deeper knowledge about how that can be used in new context new problems And how can you push to the limits what you're using? So To give an example when you start to use Linux you can use links as just a user You know nothing for your Linux is just a way to access the internet. You don't need nothing to know about Linux But then you can start learning more and learning how links works How the package works? How can you improve? How can you customize? How can you make it do some more tasks for you? How can you automate things? So as you learn you can You you you get to know more how that the pieces of software can Be part of your life and the more you learn the more you want to share and As you share you bring more people in and when you bring more people in you expand the community So learning and sharing is how we grow as a community as an open source community And like I told you when I was in the university Somebody told me about how the movement of open source was going the university and how I could get involved And that person that gotten involved They were deep into the this movement and they were learning more about it. So using learning and sharing should be as incentivized as contributing in creating because they are the the previous steps the base steps that you need before you can Then decide to contribute To an existing open source Software or to create your own I'm not telling you that you need to go all through all these steps to create our own open source Software. No, you can do you can jump out of the steps. There is no limits here I'm just saying that usually we just focus on this last two and This is very limiting especially when you're considering How broad the the open source can Value can Can impact people in the world like a show in the beginning with the circles and how everybody Is contributing we can focus more on more people if we ease the barrier for people to enter So when we start to look for ways to people to use it to learn about it and to share it We are easing these barriers and we were making more people interested in open source and we don't need to everybody Say that we are talking about this. We just need to talk about the software itself If people will get involved and know how this is important for them because people care about their problems and If we're bringing a solution to them, they will care about the solution that we're bringing and then they'll get involved And how are the ways that we can do this? The the the main way is to create a community So a community is a good way for us to to gather people around Common goal a common problem a common context and to share how we how we're solving that problems and Being part of community is very important Because it's a support group that can help people to keep using what you're What you're developing and what that community is developing and also to improve What is being developed? Another way to contribute is to teach So when you teach something you're making more people aware of how to use the software and how to To solve their problems with that software and also when you teach you learn a lot about their problems you can learn about the boundaries of the software being developed or the problems that you can you can solve or can customize and Another way is to write so blog posts books Guides tutorials everything that you write about software makes it as another way for you to to share about it and to contribute and Finally to talk about it when you talk with a friend or your share So these are all the ways that you can contribute with the the open source community with an open source software that is not effectively coding we usually only focus on coding and Holding is very important without code the software will not exist But you also need to focus on other things and people can contribute with many other ways and these are some of these ways that we can expand an open source community Without needing to explicitly coding Especially because I think we don't value as much These other contributions and they are as valuable as Coding so everybody that is teaching about how to use Rails or Django, they are as important as people that are coding these platforms because they are They are expanding the community around it and they are expanding the people that are using they're expanding their use case And this makes like every time you teach somebody to use rails You're making rails more important because more people you use it More people would be incentivized to to contribute it Also the people that are coding in rails They'll see that their software as more valuable because there are more people using and more problems being solved So everybody wins so teaching is as important as coding as well as well as people that are talking about it because if somebody didn't tell me about Django, I'll never know about it and I'll never use it and I never know how great it is And how I could use it to to improve my ways into software development So we need to to value this contribution as much as the others So let's recall about the ways that we can Get involved or getting contact with Open source so the first channel that we have is operating systems Usually is the first one that people get involved in open source even without knowing about it And we need to take care about the how we we getting get people who can The second is programming languages. Usually people get involved with open source So we found programming language usually an open source in programming languages Later on in with platforms and frameworks that we get introduced them to open source My hope here is that we managed to to improve a little bit these circles and Get a little bit of the people in the in the tech community as an occasional open source People would be great, but even if I get a little bit closer to that circle, I'll be very very much happy So thanks a lot for for being with him today and I'm open to comments and questions Feel free to reach me out here. I'm a context feel free I'll be glad to to answer any questions or just talk about what I talked today. So thanks a lot. Bye. Bye

Welcome back to my channel. I hope you're good. Today we are going to be chatting about all the books I read in February I know this is going up on the last day of February, but I've just kind of like admit a defeat for February. Oh So I'm not gonna be reading anything else we can just call it a day Say we're done and talk about what I read I feel like the reading slump that I was talking about in January has kind of progressed to being a life slump in February So I have only read seven books in February again. That's all that bad Like seven books is pretty good in the grand scheme of things But I read eight in January and I was out here talking about how I was in a reading slump. So yeah I'm like basically on track or maybe one book behind to read a hundred books this year So this is what I expected at least in the first half of the year where I knew I was gonna be really busy with University work so like it's nothing. It's nothing. It's nothing. I didn't expect at the same time It doesn't feel good to be like ten books behind where I was at this point last year Doesn't feel good in my soul. So anyway, we're gonna talk about the seven books that I've read But first we are gonna do my reading statistics for the month So I read seven books this month which equated to a total of two thousand one hundred and fifty nine pages Which definitely isn't a lot the kind of minimum I usually aim for is a hundred pages a day and that works out to be seventy seven pages a day I can't remember what January was but I think it was like 98 or something like I think I was super close to a hundred but 77 Yeah, it's a lot lower. So I think that demonstrates how even the books I read were pretty short this month. My average rating is a three point seven one four Okay, so in terms of star rating I read two five stars But one was a reread I read two four stars two three stars and one two star So I am still yet to find like a Super five star this year last month. I read the sinister mystery of the mesmerizing girl But that is the last book in a series I have yet to find any other books that could be in my favorites of the year that I would think do you know I mean so I haven't had that feeling from a book yet this year In terms of genre, I read one contemporary one fantasy one nonfiction one thriller and three Romances so that was all because I did a video one video reading romance for a week before that I'd only have read three romance books. So that is very much not typical for me Usually something like fantasy would be my number one genre I read four adult books two YA and one middle grade usually my YA and adult like 50 50 But I definitely read more much more adult. I think I read a lot of YA in January So I just wanted to read more adult books this month I guess you guys four that I read as own voices and three as not own voices Two books were gifts that I read two were books I had previously bought myself two were from publishers and one was on script If you know if you've been following my kind of reading goals and my wrap up so far You know that my goal for the year is to read at least 50% non-white authors And I read from four black authors and three white authors this month two books I read were part of a series and five were stand-alone again I think that's because of January I read predominantly books from series And so I was like I just want to read stand alone this month one author was a debut Three were authors I've read before and three authors were new to me But it wasn't their debut book So I think that is all the statistics that we want to know I keep hair keeps going into my eye Oh my god The first book that I read this month was the Winter of the Witch by Catherine Arden This is the last book in the winter night trilogy and this was a reread for me This is probably one of my favorite fantasy series ever and I hosted a read-along for it I will link the live show for this down below if you didn't manage to catch it I loved this again so much like even on reread it was still so magical and wonderful This is about Vassia who grows up in old Russia and can communicate with the house spirits and Old magic in Russia by this book. She is a completely different girl than the girl We meet from birth in the first book and she's having to take on a lot of Responsibility in this book and I just love the way it merges Historical with fantasy it definitely is I say this book is the most fantastical out of all of the series But the historical context plays a massive role in this whole series I say this every time I talk about this book But it genuinely reads like a fairy tale like it is so magical It pulls in different influences from different old Russian folklore and folk tales And so it does it reads like it's someone's telling you this old story and it's just so whimsical and perfect Like I just love it so so much if you haven't picked this series up yet. I really recommend it None of the characters in this are like straight up perfect I don't like that in fantasy when your hero or like the like likeable characters are Always right or like you never disagree with them I like that, you know some of Vasya's siblings and even like the kind of love interest They sometimes do things I don't agree with Vasya sometimes does things I don't agree with and I really like that because it's not simple It's not easy and it's like oh my god It's like literally just a warm hug But in the snow as a book if I was just to describe it then next I Started my romance reading vlog and I read love is a revolution by Renee Watson Now this was one of my most anticipated 2021 releases. This was the first like 2021 release that I read this year and it was a bit disappointing I gave it three stars, which isn't bad, but I was definitely hoping for more This is about Nala who great basically falls for this guy But she spins a very elaborate set of lies in her belief that that will make him like her You know, like she lies that she's a vegetarian because he is he's very much involved in social activism And so she's trying to impress him But obviously that doesn't go very well in the long term, which is what the whole book is about I like the sections of this that were about self-love and self-acceptance. I thought they were the best parts of it I didn't really buy into the romance at all. Like I didn't feel the lights. I didn't feel the connection That's all but I really like the parts about self-love and that really is what the book is about It really is about her learning to love herself and accept herself for who she is However, the plot was more about the romance the relationship And so I felt like it was just a bit confused like the romance was the way we got to learning about self-love But then as soon as we got there it was kind of brushed over, you know It was kind of like I didn't feel the lights at all, but I really love Renee Watson's writing I think her characters are amazing She always has some like a great cast of characters and it was still an enjoyable read So I'd still recommend it because I really like Renee Watson's work But it was by no means a new favorite. Next I read a book I actually haven't spoken about yet because I didn't read it in a vlog and I read King and the Dragonflies by Kasein calendar. This is a middle grade and it's very much like a super hyped up middle grade Like it's super popular and so I thought I was gonna love it. I ended up giving it three stars Hold on a second I'm like trying hard not to cry. Don't cry. And it wasn't because there was anything wrong with it I just didn't feel particularly drawn in. I didn't love it I just thought it was okay, and I think Perhaps I listened to the audiobook and I I think obviously you don't know before you go into books Whether it should be an audiobook book or that should be a book you'd physically But I think this should have been a book that I just read physically because they kept being points The narrator didn't do anything wrong, but they kept being points where I was like I think that would have sounded more magical and better to me inside my head So basically in this King's brother has recently passed away and he believes that his brother is now a dragonfly Like reincarnated as dragonfly and so that's part of the story And then the other part of the story is about his friend who told him like recently that he was gay Running away. It is very much about as a child coming like learning about your sexuality and having to like Be brave as a child and go against society's Homophobia particularly in like kind of smaller towns where this is set and it was beautiful and it was a lovely read But I never felt immersed like I was constantly like I'm reading a book Do you know what I mean? Like I'm reading a middle grade like I'm reading a kid's book I never fully got into it I do own Felix ever after by case and calendar, which is a YA and I'm still super excited to get that I think maybe I'll love that more and I have it physically so I'll read it physically I still think that could maybe even be a five-star But this just didn't like grab me. Maybe it was a wrong place wrong time kind of thing, but I didn't love it The next Another book from that romance vlog. I read his Beauty by Jack Harbin Which is a smutty Beauty and the Beast retelling and I gave it two stars You've been very very harsh. Nice to meet you Kelly Previously's reading vlog another book meet cute club by Jack Harbin was my highest rated romance book I've ever read and what like taught me that I could love romance and then this just wasn't for me Like the books almost can't be compared because they're very different for a very different audience is meet cute club Is of course cute his beauty is like very just smutty and like dark in this the beast is mean The beast is mean the beast is so mean and I just couldn't get on board with it Like he was not nice. I didn't he didn't pass the Vive check He kept being so mean and doing just such horrible things to our protagonist And she kept like falling for him and like just accepting these horrible things that he was doing and I just couldn't stand for it I don't think I like a romance where he's the the guy is mean and horrible like in this Bell's father the bell equivalent Bell's father is dying He keeps her locked away like in this most important time where you can spend the last few weeks with your father before he dies And you're locked in his castle and she just like forgives him and I just don't Vibe with it. I'm sorry. I didn't This is not for me No, and I think the thing with meet cute club that work was it they're both short books and meet cute Club was just a couple like scenes almost and so you were kind of the pace felt really good But in this the author was trying to touch on all the the main points from Beauty and the Beast as well as doing a retelling and I didn't think that worked because it was so short It just felt like we were just racing through it and passing through stuff and never really getting into the grit of anything And so I think almost if you were gonna do a short Beauty and the Beast retelling It just needs to be like the basic premise of the Beauty and the Beast To like together I don't think the story needs to be the same and follow the same plot points This just wasn't for me But I think it like it is a me problem in a way like some romance readers like that whole nasty guy Spill I just don't think I can get on board with that and then next I read get a life Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbet And I gave this four stars. Yeah, I gave this four stars I really enjoyed this so in this Chloe Brown is this chronically ill woman Who has because of her pain has kind of lived almost a sheltered life and she decides that she wants to get a life And so she makes this list of things she wants to accomplish and in the course that she moved house and the kind of Superintendent guy at the apartment complex. She meets him and they fall for each other This was hot like this was so hot. It was so good some of the scenes in this was so good I love the communication that the characters had I love how the characters talk to one another I Love the British wit and humor in this Such an easy read to get through I read it in a day. I would read more books about this partnership I really loved their dynamic like red is kind of like this almost grumpy man kind of vibe I don't know if that's because of the vibe that the narrator gave of the audiobook But he's very like sarcastic and like almost has this hard shell But I really loved the way that he treated Chloe and like took care of her and I don't know I just really loved their vibe and it is enemies to lovers if you enjoy that But it's not really I feel like most time when people say enemies to lovers It's like two people who don't really know each other and vaguely just like each other And then as soon as they get to know each other they like each other like that's that's not really enemies to lovers But that's all people say it is but I don't I don't read class is that I really enjoyed this I think if you want to get into romance if you're just starting out like I was I think this is a good place to start because it's just so much fun and Talia Hibbit is a great writer and then next for my wrapped-up series video of the month, which I will link I read the senatorium by Sarah Pierce This was an arc sent to me by the publisher and I gave this four stars as well I really like this so this is about a woman who goes to say at this hotel that is out of an old sanatorium So tuberculosis patients were treated there in the past and her brother's girlfriend who she's there to visit them She goes missing and it turns out that another woman who works at the hotel has also recently gone missing It's very much an isolated story. They get stuck at the hotel Our main character is trying to figure out what went on because she is an ex well not ex detective She's like kind of like a detective who is on leave at the moment And so she starts trying to put together what is going on and trying to Work it out. But in the process of that definitely puts herself in danger You in danger girl I really really enjoyed this I thought like right up until the end it had the possibility to be a 4.5 or a 5 It was so claustrophobic so tense the character relationships with one another was really interesting There was also a lot of different mysteries going on simultaneously that you knew were kind of going to merge and Go away from each other and intersect in lots of really interesting ways And I thought there was constantly something moving the situation forward There was constantly something being revealed but also something you were still wondering about and I thought that worked really well together Just the ending like the reveal of the bad person was a bit obvious not obvious. That's the wrong word That's what I meant. I didn't mean to say that I don't know what the fuck she's saying but girl. I am living it was a bit on the nose It was a bit easy and the explanation like the messaging of the book and like why everything was done Was not set up well throughout the book to me. It was just kind of like plonked It just felt a bit out of nowhere. I was like, okay Great like I feel like if the ending was there I needed to be set up better So I really enjoyed the process of reading this. I think it was a fun really well written thriller But the ending was a bit like, okay, great. Like I agreed with the messaging. I said this in the video I agree with what the ending says But it just wasn't set up and then the last book I read this month I haven't actually spoken about yet because I read it in a vlog that hasn't come out yet So I won't say too much because I don't want to give the whole game away Well, I'm gonna say what I rated it. So you'll find out. Anyway, I read the five by Halle Rubenhold This is all about telling the lies of the women who were killed by Jack the Ripper. I gave it five stars. It's like not It's like a 4.75 4.9 even by I'm giving it a five stars This was just so incredibly Fascinating and made me angry that these women had been forgotten in the way that they have and their murder are the one who we Remember they all lived such interesting lives such sad lives in many cases Which is what comes from being a woman in this in this time. I guess it really made these women real Finally, of course, they're real women but like Hearing about their lives like one of them broke ballads one of them owned a coffee house They were mothers, you know, they had children like the the variety of stuff that went on in their lives And then they're reduced to this murder, you know, it's terrible I think this is a great place to start with non-fiction if you don't typically read non-fiction, you know, you have that victorian Era setting to the book and it just reads like fiction because you were just learning about their lives So I really recommend it. It's sad. It makes you angry, but it was fascinating and Maybe want to read more non-fiction like what I want to read now is non-fiction. So there we have it That is my February wrap up. I hope you enjoyed watching it. Hopefully March may be better, but it's not gonna be better I know it's not March is already a write-off in terms of reading like I'm not gonna get loads done March is gonna be one of my busiest months to university work and so Yeah, that's gonna take up so much of my time Many of you probably already know this but I'm not uploading on Thursdays the next couple weeks And I'm gonna be doing live shows every Wednesday night instead so that we still have some kind of contact with one another But a live show is much less time consuming for me than doing a video actually it took me so long to edit So that's how I've kind of cut back But um, yeah, I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself to read I know the six books I have to read this month to get the videos out that I have to read Get out if you got to this video leave a snowflake emoji because of this snowy snowy book And I will see you on Wednesday for a live show where we're going to do some gohut bookish quizzes Check out my twitter for the form if you want to submit a quiz question I will see you then and I'll see you next sunday for another reading vlog. Okay. Bye

So COP26 has started. The IEA is here. Nuclear is obviously part of the solution for a clean planet, for an emissions-free source of energy. We have a very rich agenda of exchanges with other international organisations and many, many countries that are looking with increased interest to nuclear energy for themselves to also benefit from this. So we are looking forward to this week.

I don't know if you know this or not, but it is hard being a leader. Being someone that has a position of authority or influence over others can be difficult. And here's the thing, no one except for Jesus has ever gotten it all right. Now, does that absolve anyone from trying to get it right? No, but it's the fact there's no one that's ever gotten it right. Think about this. Moses got angry, struck the rock, and was prevented from entering into the Promised Land. Was there something more behind the scenes? Don't know. Don't know. But that was something that we did find out about Moses. Jonah, disobeyed God, ran, did not want to see the Ninevites saved. Elisha complained and doubted God. As a matter of fact, even said that or thought that he was the only one that was serving God. Samuel, the prophet Samuel. What was wrong with his sons? His sons were actually pretty horrible. As a matter of fact, his sons were the catalyst for Israel deciding that they wanted a king like other nations. Pretty bad parenting maybe. I don't know. You tell me. Then what about Paul? Paul rebuked Peter. Peter's issue was how he was treating the Gentiles privately versus publicly. But then Paul was a bit harsh and definitely wrong about John Mark, who at the very end decided that he wanted to see John Mark bring him to me because he's useless. I mean he's full. I'm sorry. He's useless. Useful. The fact is though that everybody gets it wrong in some way, shape, form, or fashion. And so that's why it is very important for someone who wants to be a leader to make sure that one it's of God, two that you are qualified to do so. Now, as hard as it is to be a leader, I think it's even harder to be a pastor. Why? Because now you've got an extra layer on where you have an intimate dealing with the people that you are shepherding, so to speak. And so it can be difficult. I told you guys before about my prayers in terms of should I plant a church and so forth. And I want to make sure that me personally, not in terms of understanding the scriptures and so forth, but in terms of me personally behind the scenes that I'm ready, that I can handle certain things, deal with certain things. And one, I am efficient in terms of handling things administrative wise, kind of this, this, this, and this. Because you'll notice that a true pastor, a true pastor, doesn't get into the debates. Why? Well, because he's got a lot to do. There's a reason why a person like John MacArthur, you don't see him having debates. There's a reason why a person like a Tony Evans. These pastors that we see, whether you like them or not, true pastors, they don't have time to go out and debate and answer questions. Now, if they have a conference, that's their own thing. But having a debate, this person calls them out. They, they, which by the way, if you have a pastor and he's responding to callouts and clapbacks, you probably don't have a pastor. You probably have a social media influencer more than you do a pastor because his focus is other. It's one of the things that, that, when I first noticed about a person like a T.D. Jakes, he's half of the time, go to his church, half the time, he's just not there. He's, he's doing something different rather than being there close by to the church. And so just a lot of things that have to be taken care of because you are a pastor. Now, John MacArthur, there are some things that I agree with him. There's many that disagree with him. There's a, but that's the case with anybody. The only person, the only person that I agree with 100% of the time is me and not even 100%, maybe 99% of the time. And then, do you know who you agree with most often? You're probably going to say God. You're probably going to say Jesus, but that'd be a lie because you don't agree with God 100% of the time. You just don't because you, because you still have some sin in you. You still have your own personality, your own thoughts, your own way of doing things. And then even when someone calls you out and says this about you, what's the first thing you want to do? Put your defense up, ready to fight. That's just how it is. So you agree with yourself most often, then let's say, hopefully a close second, it'd be God. I mean, if we're going to be honest and tell the truth, that's just how it is. That's just how human beings are. Now, me, I take a different tack towards looking at people. You've heard me say this before. I don't treat believers like nonbelievers. I don't treat Christian like non-Christians. I don't treat sheeps or shepherds like I do wolves. And it takes me a while to come to the conclusion, let's you do something that's just overtly, overtly without any question reprehensible. If you are intentionally mishandling the text, I tend to even, even if you're mishandling text, I tend to want to give you the benefit of doubt because I'm not sure. And so I'm going to always handle someone, even if I disagree with them, if they're a pastor or a believer, differently than I would a nonbeliever. That's just me. Because I've done this enough and been around enough, enough of the big ones and the small ones and those in between I've been around. And I've seen kind of what happens beyond, I mean, behind the scenes, I've seen what's happened behind the scenes at a small church. I've seen what's happened behind the scenes at a medium church as well as a large church or even in different organizations because sometimes what you see is not what you get behind the scenes in vice versa. So that being the case, I don't think that anyone can doubt the amount of influence that a John MacArthur has had. Now, John MacArthur has people who love him dearly and he's got people who hate him dearly. It just, and some folks say I don't hate him, but some people do go at him with a certain ire that really is ungodly. Some folks have a legitimate cause and they want to prosecute that cause that they believe. Now, there does come a difference between prosecuting and persecuting. There's a few words that are changed, but a big difference. And so you want to be careful. You've got folks on this end of the spectrum and you've got folks on that end of the spectrum. And then you've got most people who are in between. I don't have an unabiding love for John MacArthur, nor do I have an unending hatred towards him. I respect him as a matter of fact. Most pastors, if they're honest with themselves, they would say, you know what, if I can have a ministry or a life of service, like he has the link that he's had, then I would say I'd sign for that. Most pastors would say that. Now, has there been some hiccups and so forth? Sure. When you find the one that doesn't have one, two, three, four, five or 10 or 30 hiccups, let me know. John MacArthur has been at this for a long time. He started, he started as a pastor in 1969. What were you guys doing in 69? Now, I know what I was doing in 1969. I was just kind of hanging out doing, doing much of nothing. Why? Because I wasn't born yet. And so he's been a pastor longer than I've been alive. He has been, and it's almost as though his voice hadn't really changed, but, but he's been, he's been at this for a while. What always stands in the way of glorifying God is us seeking glory from men. Just what we read, didn't we, in the Old Testament, where Jeremiah says, don't be proud. Give glory to God. And he has pretty much been the same way in terms of how he teaches, how he preaches and so forth. That, that part cannot be denied. And he's got his admirers. One of the things that you would admire him for, those that do admire, you would admire him because of his stance on certain social issues. Most of us remember or have heard or seen, watched the videos of him going on, on different news stations, defending the right to be open during the pandemic. Whereas many people, whereas many people were shutting and so forth, he was, he was fighting it. Now, in hindsight, there are a lot of pastors that wish they would have had their doors open to, in terms of now knowing a little bit more about the, what we're dealing with, the, the virus and so forth. More pastors would probably want to go back and say, yeah, I would take that stand. No, we don't know. Even when it comes to dealing with certain social hot topic, but an issue such as the LGBTQ, and this isn't something new for him. He's been, he's been having this stance for a long time, whereas some people, such as a smiling Joe, would be willing to cave on certain issues or at least be ultra friendly, like an Andy Stanley, some folks who are kind of affirming this group now, because one, the Bible says that people will not hold to sound doctrine but have itching ears. Well, he doesn't seem to be interested in their ears being tickled. Who is contributing more to the moral decay of the society, the adulterous husband with the female wife or the loving gay couple who don't do that? Yeah, well, you're asking me to do something I really can't do and that is make a judgment on which sin is better or, or worse than the other. We've suffered in this country from adultery, divorce, the abuse of children, pedophilia, you name it. I'm not going to classify those in rank, their sins and they destroy the family. Homosexuality. Homosexuality, yeah. Therefore, it's a choice. It's a choice you make. It's a sinful choice. Did you make a choice to be heterosexual? I don't think I had to make a choice to be heterosexual. I think that's a natural thing. Wait a minute. In other words, one is a choice and one is not. Yeah. So he was unlucky and unlucky. Because you're not talking about, because it's natural to be heterosexual. What do you mean by natural? Well, I mean that's the way God made us. That's normal. But if he doesn't feel that way, what is he then? He's not a sinner. It wasn't his decision. Yeah, I think it was his decision. I would love, absolutely love for the pastor to point out for me when, when in my life I made that decision. Now, one thing that I also appreciate from Ajama Cartha, by the way, I'll never forget this. When I was on tour, you all remember, I told you I was on tour. When I was on tour with the federal government visiting some of their better prisons in America, one of the things that I wanted, it's one of the things that we're about to kick off here in, that is putting Bibles and study material in the hand of prisoners, inmates. There was a, there was a brother who would come to the Bible study and notice that I had just a regular old Bible. I want to call it a cheap Bible, but it was a Bible that I got. Once I got in there, it was kind of raggedy and torn and so forth and says, you need a better Bible. Now, he asked me, you know, what type of Bible, what I'm getting so forth and then, what did I think about this Bible and that Bible? And he went and bought himself a Bible. When he bought the Bible, he showed it to me. I said, man, that's a good, that's a, he went and bought a John MacArthur study Bible. And I said, that, that's a real nice Bible. I was, I was opening up, checking out. He said, no, turn to the front of it. And this is it right here, this, this one. Now, this has been with me almost as long as my, my best friend while I was on tour, my, my, my prison coffee cup. But he, he said, open the front of this book. I opened it up. I wasn't thinking much of it. And he said, and it had my name. He bought one for me. And I was, I was humbled. And it was a John MacArthur study Bible. And, and I was, I was appreciative of it. I really, and I still hold on to the, to the Bible. Now, do I think that John MacArthur's understanding is the be all to end all? No, no, only, only mine is right, right? Only yours is, we tend to, we tend to lean more on the people that we agree with, but it's good to have somebody's commentary or hear what they have to say. As a matter of fact, someone even gifted me a John MacArthur commentary. And I understand the whole hubbub about the commentary. Truth be told, though, every, and I mean every commentary that has someone's name attached to it, the majority of it, if not half of it, or if not the majority of it was written or penned by someone else, but it's still from the, the kind of the, the parameters of the person behind it. I know of a couple of people that have their, have a commentary and it's just kind of what, you know, I'm going to take you actually to write a commentary for everything. Think about all the different words that are in the Bible, all the passages and so forth. And so I understood that. And to me, when I saw it, I pretty much dismissed it. People ask me is John MacArthur, he's a Calvinist. He also, he calls himself a leaky dispensationalist. Most dispensationalists would say, no, you're not in the dispensational car, car. But that being, that being the case, he does hold to a dispensational hermeneutic while also holding himself to be a Calvinist. Now, I, I, whether you agree with him or not on that, I don't think that should be an issue because there are brothers and sisters who, who are of the faith, who hold to other doctrines, maybe not Calvinist, maybe dispensationalist, maybe what's the new and provisionist, maybe Armenian and so forth. So, but in that regard, in listening and watching him, matter of fact, you'd be surprised how many men, because his, his radio show, his radio broadcast is all throughout the country. And because you're in prison, you don't get a lot of sound teaching. You, you, you really do not. You really do not, which is the reason why I haven't started smart Christians. But a lot of men in prison who were not used to sound doctrine would turn to MacArthur's radio broadcast and listen like, well, I like what he's saying. That makes sense. As, as a pair, as, as compared to being able to listen to, let's say a TD jakes or somebody like that, because you have that, you have a lot of people with a lot of bad theology that's also being pumped into these, into these institutions. And so it's just good to have somebody to give you sound word. Even if you disagree, at least you see how he got to this point. He's teaching you, he's, he's, he's admonishing you to hold to the text, say what the text said. He is someone that I do agree, who is firm in trying to promote sound in interpretation. We don't, we don't have a lot of that. But John MacArthur, at least, even if you might disagree with his conclusion, at least you can see, like I say, how he got to the conclusion that he got to. The importance of careful Biblical interpretation couldn't be overstated. It's impossible to overstate it. Misinterpreting the Bible, listen, is essentially no better than not believing it. Without question, without question, not believing it. You might as well not believe it if you're going to misinterpret it. And we, of course, we see that nowadays. We see a lot of people who have just gone off the rails. Some people unintentionally, some people intentionally, and we'll deal with him calling out people who intentionally twist the scriptures and so forth, whatever. Now, are there some things that I would disagree with him on? Sure. As a matter of fact, I've even made videos where I disagree with him on those things, but not necessarily casting him aside and we'll talk about something else also that I know you all probably want to hear about. But the issue of the blood, he made a statement. And now he's been called out. And by the way, the men that called him still hold him out to be a brother and a lord, but just disagree with him in terms of what he said about the blood. Now, I think that maybe he probably ought to fix it a little bit. I don't know if you misspoke or what have you. I don't think that you probably can or should misspeak on this without correcting it. And that is this issue of if Jesus was killed, could he been bludgeoned to death or drowned or what have you? I think that the shedding of the blood was important, not just the blood, but the manner in which the blood came about. Also, this issue of the mark of the beast, I know he was kind of given a hypothesis as to if a person were, could that person turn around theoretically take the mark and then repent of that mark? Well, if they were, well then, could they? Well, the point that we would take is by following that same hermeneutic is that the Bible says that those people will, there is no turning around. Someone's asking is the LSB, is it defined? Yeah, that's a, the Legacy Standard Bible is a, it's a fine translation. I've seen poor, I don't have one myself, but I've seen, I've seen, as a matter of fact, I take it back. I think one of these, the software, one of these has the Legacy Standard Study Bible, I think, but I've seen some translations of it. It's fine. I still would go personally with the NASB or ESB or one of those because of the scholarship behind it. I think it was a limited number of the people at the LSB from the Master Seminary versus other translations where they might have a committee of people, Greek and Hebrew scholars in Hermetic and so forth, who don't have the same doctrine, the same theological stance, and they're just going to hold themselves to the text, what this word means. If I were a non-Christian reading Greek, how would I take this? A non- Christian reading Hebrew, if I was an Armenian reading, if I was a Calvinist reading, if I whatever. And so I think those are the better, the more scholarship approved study Bibles or translations, I should say, but there's nothing wrong with that at all. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Now there have been some people that have impugned him from having that and then from also before the NASB and the ESB and so forth, but all of that in the Grants and Things is not a big issue to me. I'm going to tell you why in a second. Now what I say that his overall record as a pastor is pretty good, I would say so. Now are there some things that we need to look at? Sure, sure, but overall, yeah. Now inevitably every leader has a felony in at least one area, but truth be told, in multiple areas. In multiple areas. Why do I say that? Well, first of all, everybody has a blind spot and when I say everybody, that means you. That means me. Every single person in the chat, you have a blind spot. Every pastor does. And here's a here's the truth. Every pastor or no pastor gets past, gets past his blind spots, all of them totally. Some pastors die not being perfect. Could you imagine that some pastors die as a pastor or having having stopped being a pastor and there are some glaring issues, some mistakes, some things that you know what that either even when they quit or the other side of heaven realize that you know what I was wrong on that and held to their guns even when being told or confronted with the truth. Every last pastor has that happen to them. As a matter of fact, every last human being has it. Now, the problem is though by being a pastor, there's just something that sticks out as far as being a pastor and having these issues. Now, James puts it this way. He says, let not many of you become teachers, my brother, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment. For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is perfect able to bridle the whole body as well. Who do you know that's like that? I know nobody, nobody. Now, some of you guys are is he a Calvinist? Is he not or whatever? That's not the point. That's not the issue. As a matter of fact, I had a conversation with a person who had an issue with Calvinists or a person who was a Calvinist. And then as we're sitting and having a conversation, the person, his only issue was that he was a Calvinist, but didn't understand why the person or why Calvinism is good or bad. This person was just as bad at expressing his doctrine as some of these other heretics that we see out here. And so if you're going to say that a person should be avoided because he's a Calvinist or because he's Armenian or because the provision is, then you, madam, you, sir, haven't understood fully, completely what this Bible is about. Because what we end up doing sometimes is we end up judging people because they're not like us. Tell me someone why a Calvinist cannot be saved. Tell me why an Armenian can't be saved. Tell me why a dispensator you can't. If all you have to do is place your faith in Christ, he has placed his faith in Christ. So guess what he is? He is a brother. Now I've said this before, even with the people who disagree and likely there are going to be some folks that disagree with my assessment as well. With my assessment of MacArthur or anyone else, I'd say this, be sure, be sure that how you disagree and what you disagree about, you're right. Be sure because to the degree, to the, okay, to the degree that you do so, especially in an unloving fashion, then I promise you God is going to deal with you. God is going to deal with you. And so, again, for that reason, I do my best not to treat an unbeliever like a believer and vice versa, a believer like a non-believer, just not going to do it. I give people a little bit of mercy, especially on the things that John MacArthur has said that I may disagree with, then you know what he gets, though. He does certainly get the benefit of doubt. He does get the, now does that mean he's get carte blanche? He gets a free pass? No, he does not. No one does. The only, again, the only person in the world that gets a free pass from messing up is me. That's the only person. You would say the same thing about yourself. The only person that you know that would get a free pass from messing up is you. How do I know? Because the moment I tell you you did something, what's the first thing you're going to deny? You're going to, no, that's just, it is what it is. It is what it is. That's how we are. Now, there are certain things that are game changers that, okay, fine. You don't, you don't get the same level of treatment for it. I see someone says about denying the Trinity. If you deny the Trinity or you deny that Jesus is, a person can deny the Trinity and not know what the Trinity is and they're denying it. But if you denied this key thing that Jesus has got, then you cannot be saved. You just cannot be saved. And so that being, that being stated, as a matter of fact, let me just say this. James says this, not James, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, wrong one, wrong one. James too, I went to the wrong passage. James too, and let me pass this way. For he who said, do not commit adultery, also said do not commit murder. Now, if you do not commit adultery, but commit murder, you have become a transgressive law. In other words, you impugn this person for that, but then we've got this about you over here. Yeah, but I'm not doing that, but you're doing that over there. Yeah, but I don't do this, but you're doing that. James is talking to you. So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty. For judgment will be merciless to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. I didn't write that. James wrote that. Where did James get that from? He got that from the Holy Spirit. And so I think that we have to be, that doesn't mean that we can't also be direct and forward in how we deal with someone who is in sin or doing something. That goes without saying. But again, we want to be careful that we don't, for those folks that are against John MacArthur, that you're not, that you are prosecuting a case versus persecuting it. And even folks that, there are people who I know who hate John MacArthur. They hate them. But they'll say, I don't hate them. Yes, you do. Maybe you don't know what hate is. Maybe you don't know what hate is. And so there are those that do hate him. There are those folks that think they're Christian and are not. There are going to be an awful lot of people who are just going to be surprised at when they die. A lot of people. And so that's why the overarching theme of everything that we do, what we say, how we walk, how we move needs to be couched in love. Now, this is not about John MacArthur or about anyone else. This is just me speaking to you, what I know to be the facts. The facts are, you need love. We all need love. We all better treat and act in accordance with love. That's why you see this brought up all the time. How you treat someone matters. How someone treats you matters. How you intend, intend to treat someone matters as well. Now, that being the case, because I know some people are here to make their case about how great John MacArthur is. And I think, and I know there's people here that are here to make their case about how bad or how wrong John MacArthur is. And sometimes those people can kind of get their cells all a little cloudied up, whatever you, because again, again, if you think he's so great, be careful that he can do no wrong. Now, that's not on him. That's on you. If you think he's so bad, be careful that you haven't done wrong, because the same measure, the same level of judgment is coming back to you both ways. Folks who idolize him and people who demonize him. I think what, what I have a problem, one sitting down and listening to John MacArthur, I wouldn't have a problem at all. I would not have a problem. Would I have a problem going to visit this church? And I live here in Dallas. He's in, he's in California. I wouldn't have a problem going there at all. None whatsoever. And I don't think I can be impugned for being a hater of John MacArthur or for being some devoted fan. I am who I am. My former pastor, I've been able to critique him as well that being Tony Evans, the person who, who trained me the most, who by the way, who by the way, hurt me. I've told you, I won't go over the story, but hurt me. He did come back and apologize a lot later after fact, but I'd forgiven him before then because I understand. I used to, as a matter of fact, I used to see thinking to myself, this was as an associate pastor, not being privy to everything that the senior pastor was, was privy to thinking, you shouldn't do this. This is wrong and so forth. And then coming to find out a little bit more about the information and say, well, why don't you tell anyone? Well, because if I tell some other people, then some other things are going to come out and other people might be hurt or betrayed. And so sometimes a pastor makes a judgment call on some things that other folks don't see or agree with or even know about. But that's why there's a stricter judgment and comment. That person he has, that's why you ought to make sure that you're always praying for them, always praying for these people who are in leadership. Now, to the best you can, obey them. Paul says, I'm not Paul, the writer of Hebrews says, obey your leaders and submit to them for they keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with grief or this would be unprofitable for you. These people are going to give an account. They are going to give an account. Ultimately, God has the sheep back. Yeah, I said that right, the sheep back. Yeah, the sheep back. I think grammatically you actually, on that case, possessive, you put the apostrophe S on it. Yeah, the sheep's back. Yeah. Ultimately, God will have the sheep's back. All the sheep, God has your back also. But there are these shepherds, these local shepherds that God has in place. And so when they do wrong, God will deal with them. And sometimes they mess up. Listen, matter of fact, especially nowadays, more often than not, they tend to mess up more than they need to. But what should we do? Well, Peter says something. He says, therefore, I exhort the elders among you as your fellow elder and witness of the suffering of Christ and a partaker of the glory also, partaker also of the glory, that is to be revealed, shepherd the flock of God among you. Well, a lot of pastors don't do that. They don't shepherd the flock of God. Many pastors are interested in shepherding the flock on this side of town and then on that side of town and then over there on that side of town. And then let's also have a flock across the country. Let's have a flock. No, shepherd your flock instead of opening. Now, I'm not necessarily against multiple campuses, but it opens up a huge problem where you can't deal with all the people. Why not train someone else? Why not train someone else? Because the goal of the pastor is to train others underneath you to do what Jesus did, to multiply himself in his teaching. Obviously, the Holy Spirit, we don't have that, but train men. That's why Paul tells Timothy to commit this stuff to faithful men, men who are going to learn and who are going to grow. That's what you're supposed to do. Going back to it, he says, shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily according to the will of God, and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness, nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock. And when the chief shepherd appears, you'll receive the unfading crown of glory. Well, that's what would happen. This is the word of God. He says that take care of these people with him, and there's a certain way, not lording over them, not trying to get some sort of gain, some sort of monetary gain. Let's make sure I got all my financial ducks in order. No, that's not what you're after. Do so because you love the people, those who have been allotted, as he says, allotted to your charge, the people that are under you. You're going to have to give account for obviously what you do, but give an account for the people that you have over, that you're over. There are churches where it seems like everybody is sleeping with everybody else. Well, that pastor is going to have to give an account for what is happening in that church. Is he at fault for all of that that's going on? But if something is rampant, then we've got a problem. If something is rampant, then we have a problem. With MacArthur, and we'll deal with one of the issues that I know people want to talk about, but in over 50 years, spread out, it seems like it seems like that the level of scandal is less at least compared to most other pastors over 50 years. There's a couple of big issues that have happened, and maybe he is a privy to, maybe he is, maybe he's just staunch in his resolve, maybe, and we'll talk about that in a second because I know folks want to talk about it, so we'll deal with it. But that being the case, this is the job. As a matter of fact, let's just see, is he qualified? Let's see, because this isn't your qualified day one, and then going into the year two, you don't have to worry about it. You've already overcome that barrier, that hurdle. 10 years later, you don't have to worry about being qualified. No, this is what you have to be at all times. He says, Paul says, if anyone desires any man, let's be clear, remember he tells Beth Moore, go home. If any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work that he desires. An overseer must be above reproach. I think for the most part, that's John MacArthur. I do. I do. The husband of one wife, yes, temperate, yes, prudent, yes, respectable. Does that mean 100% no? Because then that means that nobody can be 100%, that no one qualifies it, but I think that overall generally he's respectable. Sure, I believe so. I believe so. Hospitable, yes. As far as I know, I don't, I've never met the man. Those that have, they say so, and so, or at least the over one majority would say so. I don't, there's always going to be somebody that has something, an axe to grind or something. So, so far, able to teach. I think without question, he's able to teach, not addicted to wine or pugnacious. Nope, I don't think that's him at all. He, so he passes that, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money, as for, even though the person came out with a deal, the lavish life of John MacArthur, I disagree with that. I disagree with that. Sorry. He must be one who manages his own household well, I think so far, keeping his children under control with all dignity, but if a man does not know how to manage it, so I think so far. And then down here, this one, he says verse, obviously not a new convert, but verse seven, must have a good reputation with those outside the church. I think John MacArthur has a good reputation with those outside of the church. So, now they might disagree with him, but I think they still respect him. Corey, once a pastor is disqualified, you're done. If you ask him the question, well, we'd have to have a pastor for that. So, if a pastor, let's say, is not temperate, something's going on, he's just not temperate, something's going on, and, but he comes back around and becomes temperate. That's the one thing that he's, that he's off on. Well, sure. The Bible doesn't say once disqualified, always disqualified, it's not salvation. Once disqualified, always no. This is what you have to be at the time. Now, unfortunately, many pastors though, today, in that role are not willing to set down, to be set down. A lot of pastors don't have a leadership board where they have other people that will listen to them. And then those that do, they might be willing to listen, but they've got people on the board who are more fans than followers of Christ and not willing or desirous to tell them something. That happens. When I tell you guys, it is hard and difficult to be a pastor, it's hard and difficult to be a pastor. One of the reasons why initially, I'm not doing this, there's noop, noop, noop, ain't gonna happen, but I think I'm still coming to that. I think I'm, now I have had my own personal opinions. Would I put adultery in the same fashion? Here's the thing though, while I would want to say if a pastor has cheated on his wife or anything like that, could that pastor, is that pastor at the time while he was a pastor disqualified because, but then he repents he's changed and then wants to become a pastor again? At the time that he's a pastor, is he qualified? Now I don't have a passage to tell me one way or the other. I just have a passage that tells me what the qualifications of a pastor are, because what about the guy who did it before he became a pastor while he was in business or what have you? So there's, now if it's your desire not to be up on a pastor with that, then that's fine. And again, if he's not qualified, God is going to, God is, listen, I want you all to know God is going to deal with people. I don't want you all to think that people are going to escape God's judgment. Believers and non-believers. That's me. That's John MacArthur. That's Tony Evans. That's Andy Stanley. That's Charles Stanley. That's TD Jakes. And that is you. Being a pastor does not mean that you don't get judged. Oh, by the way, not being a pastor means that you're not going to get judged. We all going to have to deal with what we've done. We are all going to have to give an account. And so I think it is vitally important, especially for a pastor to do as much as he possibly, now a pastor has a lot on his plate, a lot on his plate. Now one of the things that I do have against John MacArthur, it's a big thing. It's a big thing. It doesn't really disqualify him, but it's a big thing. John MacArthur simply has too much hair on his head. Yeah. That's my biggest issue with, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. How in the world is this man 137 years old and has more hair than me? If I were woke, I would say that hair is racist because how does he have hair at his age? And I don't. I would say not fair, but it would be not fair for him because he said, he said, you could take the mark of the beast and be redeemed. Now I've heard somebody try to, or some people try to clarify that, that he, you know, he's speaking hypothetically that if a person were to take the beat, the mark, then hypothetically if they decided that I was wrong and repented, would they be forgiven? Well, I believe that if hypothetically they did take the mark and repented, they would be forgiven. I just don't believe that anyone that takes the mark of the beast will repent because the scriptures are clear. It's definite what is going to happen to those people. Those people have made a conscious decision. And let's remember what the, what the atmosphere is going to be like at that time. The atmosphere is going to be, you think it's bad now. You think you've got people wholesale every day, leaving the faith, not leaving having faith, not leaving from having believed, believing the belief. You think it's bad now. This great falling away, folks, departing for what sound, doctrine, sound judgment is. You're going to see that even more so and then running to something. When you leave that, where are you going to? And in that day, there are going to be a lot of people that are going to just, you know what, forget God, forget Jesus, whatever. I'm down with this guy over here, whatever his name is, this anti-Christ kind of guy. Yeah, he's my guy. I vote for him. No, no, I'm against Jesus. I'm against Jesus in every way. Jesus has me hungry out here. All those different things, fine, fine. I don't think that anyone that's going to take the, take the mark is, we think about this now. Then I think for a lot of people, for a lot of people, for them, it will be a no-brainer because they have no hope in Christ. I'm going to answer this. Let me mark some of it. Uh-oh, what's going on? Why can I mark this? Oh, I can mark it. I'm going to try to come back to some of these. By the way, what I'll do is at the end, I will take some questions. I will take some questions. Matter of fact, I'm kind of looking forward to answer some of the objections that people are going to give. Now, somebody might not want the objection or the rebuttal that I give, but it's okay. I love you all. I love you all to death. I love John MacArthur death, and I love every last one of you death. And so I'll do my very best to give you how I see it. Remembering, though, that the things that I've gone through, I think have placed me in this place, even the folks that have turned their back on me, that have stabbed me in the back and so forth, love them to death. Love them to death. And so I'll get there in a second. I'll get to where you guys want to go. Now, one of the things also that I think we all can appreciate is John MacArthur stands against some of the foolishness and the twisting of scriptures, particularly, particularly the charismatic movement. So how do we test whether somebody is speaking the truth? Do we ask if they do miracles? No. In fact, here's the strange thing, the people who claim to do miracles all have bad theology. Are we supposed to believe that God is authenticating deceivers? Are we supposed to believe that God, the Holy Spirit, has given miracle power to people who have bad theology, who misrepresent the Trinity, who misrepresent Christ, who misrepresent, in many cases, the gospel, and who get rich doing it? Yeah. How is it that these people who can't spell doctrine, who have everything wrong about the Bible, the Spirit is working in them so much, they can heal people, they can cast out, they can do all these things except read. They've got the gift of everything else, except for the gift of the gift of phonics. They have the gift. They don't have the gift of reading. They don't understand. And so that is, that's huge. And he's right on that. He is absolutely right on that. Now, there has been, and I'll look for you guys for your objections and for your agreements as well. Do I, do I like John MacArthur? I wanted to get my drink in, make sure my, I'm hydrated as best I can when I give you this answer. Do I like John MacArthur? Yes, I do. Would I recommend you to listen to John MacArthur? Uh-oh, here it is. Yes, I would. Yes, I would. Do I think John MacArthur makes mistakes? Yes. Yes, I absolutely have. One of the issues, and I covered it, the issue that the Lady Julie Roy's reported on about this lady, Eileen Gray. Eileen Gray was escorted out of the church because she would not get back with her husband. I think, personally, I think that the church missed a golden opportunity. Why is that a golden opportunity? The reason why it's a golden opportunity, because with me, with me, the best thing that I could ever do in front of people is to say that, yeah, I messed up. I'm horrible. I'm all the things that I've done wrong. Because when you admit that you made a mistake, it doesn't mean that you're going to hell. It doesn't mean that you're the worst person ever. It's like I'm, which I expect, I expect you as a, first of all, I expect you as a human being to make a mistake. And then as an organization to make a mistake, the church that I belonged to before was Oakley Bible Fellowship in, in Dallas, Tony Evans Church. It's a much bigger church than, than, than John McCarthy's church. Do they make mistakes? Yes, they do. You know why? Because now it's not an individual, it's an organization. It's an organization and there's so many different moving parts and so forth and how you're trying to manage it, plus the word, plus your family, plus your sanity, plus the sheep, it can be difficult. And so we expect you to make mistakes. We really do. We really expect the pastors and the church, even though we don't think that they should, we actually do expect them to make, yeah, and Julie Royce, she does have an ax to grind. That doesn't necessarily mean that what she said was true. I mean, or was true or false, actually. The devil is going to have accusations against every last one of us. The devil is going to have an accusation against me and against you and all the friends that you know. And guess what guys? Can I, can I tell you guys the truth? In many cases, the accusations that he has against you are going to be true. He hates you, but he didn't have to make up, you know, the devil didn't have to do, he does not have to make up an accusation about your sin. It's true. You're pleading before the Lord about your sin is, is true. I'm guilty. I am guilty of that sin, but I'm also forgiven. And so I think that the church missed an opportunity by saying, and I'll cover that to David, but I think the church is missing opportunity by saying, you know what? We might have missed that one. Some of you all for me with the whole issue with Eileen Gray, where she was put out because of this, her not getting back with her husband. She, it comes, come to find out that her concerns or what her issues were were true. The husband was not a good husband. As a matter of fact, wasn't a good father. He was abusing her and the children physically and sexually, which is why he's in jail today. And so the church got it wrong. Okay. Now the church has a particular stance and sometimes the methodology might not be the problem, but how you manage the methodology might be an issue. There was a writing and a report that came out by a guy by the name who was a former elder who had some issues and felt like the church need to deal with that. And his words are that he was forced out. He had either retract that or to resign and he ended up resigning. Now, can I speak to how true that is? I can't. I can just simply say what he said. So I don't know why and why won't I do so because I don't fully know. I don't fully know. And because I don't, I understand what he has said, but I want to have thorough understanding, but it may not be for me to have understanding because of that. Now there's a couple of things that I, and I've done this in the past. I have done this in the past. The Bible says, and so now I'm not saying that people that haven't made a statement or pointed about this, that this is them, but this is for me, for me. The Bible says a fool does not delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own mind. And so I'm not going to be the person that hears something. Wow, that's terrible. That's horrible. Cut their head off and then come to find out there's more to the story. Now, could there be more to the story? It could be. Could that be all it is? I don't know. It might be just as cut and dry as it looks. It might be. Don't know. Right now, it looks like, wait a second, we've got some issues. We've got some issues and primarily with the person who is over there, or I don't know if he's still over at the marriage and counseling and some forth or whatever. I don't know. Maybe that's a blind spot for the church or if this particular person is a blind spot. Maybe there's an allegiance to this person and maybe there should not be. Maybe the person who you thought should be conducting business is actually hurting the church and has gotten some things wrong. I'm pretty sure at the size of the church that the pastor is leaning heavily on his elders. I think someone said that there's like 39 or 30-something elders. That's a lot. First of all, that's an awful lot of elders for them. That's a lot. That is a lot. But hey, if that's how they want to do it, that's fine. I personally would prefer a smaller number of elders because it's more intimate. I can know them better. They can know me better. And we can hold each other accountable because what happens at the size of that board, there's going to naturally be some jockeying for position. That's what men do. We jockey for position. We jockey for the ear of the leader. You don't believe me? Ask James and John. Matter of fact, don't ask James and John. Go ask the other nine, not Jews, but the other nine people who were upset with them because their mother wanted them to sit on the left and the right of his hand of Jesus. Even they were jockeying. When Jesus says, I'm getting ready to die, what were they arguing about? Who's the greatest in the kingdom? So anyway, anyway, I'm sorry. That being the case, that can be an issue. Now, I read something about, and what did I read? I'm reading a portion of this article that was allegedly said by him. What do you say? And matter of fact, I'm not going to actually read this. I'm not going to read it. I'll let you all do it. And I've said it in, I think I did two videos, and even someone else asked me on another video what I thought. I said it's just unfortunate. Matter of fact, I did two other interviews about this. I think it's unfortunate, but do I think that he is unqualified to be a pastor? No, I wouldn't say so. I wouldn't say so, but I think you missed an opportunity. And it could be that I'm wrong about it. The possibility of me being wrong is out there. But even if I'm right, does that mean, no, I'm not through with him? No. Again, that is at our church, not the current church, but former church. There were some things and the pastors deal. Like, no, no, I disagree. I'm like, you can't see this. No, you're wrong. No, you're wrong. Well, no, that wasn't the reason why I'm no longer at that church. But the point is, though, that there are going to be some times where the pastor is just not going to agree. Okay, fine. Okay, fine. Then what's going to end up happening is that pastor is going to deal with God. The people might have, and it may be that people there might end up suffering. Again, that pastor is going to have to deal with God. Now, what I want to do and I say this because I want you all to hear this, why I say it's the one, the one position in America that doesn't seem to get a whole lot of love nowadays. It's almost as though that pastors have gone right underneath the slot, right? Used car salesman, lawyer, politician, bin Laden and then pastors. But can I just say this? Let me just say in the words of Paul, he says, the elder who rules well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard at preaching and teaching. Now, he speaks about not muscling the ox and so forth, but they do deserve honor. Who says I'm surprised I'm not a pastor? I'm surprised. No, I'm not surprised. I'm not a pastor. I wanted, I wanted other things. I wanted to do other stuff. I have others. I had, I had too much of me in mind. I was trying to figure out stuff for God. I was trying to tell God how we ought to do things. And so for that, for that case, for that reason. But now after going through what I've gone through, after guys dealing with the worst of the, when I say the worst of the worst, I mean the worst of the worst, after dealing with the least of the least. Oh, and after dealing with the most of the most, I'm talking about guys who had a ton of money, a ton of influence when they came to prison and left with that same influence. People who just could not comprehend with all, you name those people, I, I have also dealt with them. And so it taught me to be a little bit more appreciative, a little bit more merciful. What did James say? If you don't have mercy, none will be shown to you. I don't care how righteous, how righteously indignant you are about something. If you are not showing mercy, don't expect it. That's why you better be right. Oh, no, no, no. You better be 100% right. And then on the other side, excuse me, don't get caught worshiping and following the person. Don't get caught worshiping and following the actual man. And we see it all the time. I love my pastor so much. If anybody says anything about it, if my pastor and my mama got in the fight, I'm on my pastor's side. Well, you don't want to do that either. You don't want to do that either. No. And so what we want to do is try to be as discerning, but you know what we all saw to be? Be prayerful. Be prayerful. And so my take is what do I think about John MacArthur? I'm fine with John MacArthur. Again, there are some things that I think he's messed up on, some missteps and so forth, but again, I have to, I have to. Now, don't get mad at me because I don't love him as much as you love him. And don't get mad at me because I don't dislike him as much as you dislike him. You have the freedom to persecute or prosecute or think or feel the way you feel. This is just how I feel about him. Now, I don't think that anyone, you're never going to accuse me of being someone that hates him. You're never going to be able to accuse me of someone who is just madly in love with him, idolizing him. So now, if there are anyone that has any issues, let me go ahead and take some concern. Hold on. Let's see. X says, Xeric's brother, he says, Corey, does John not violate his own standard? If he, if he indeed taught different than what he's currently doing, his grades would be A, exegesis D as a pastor and F for writing books he never did. Well, again, you find, now I've said this before about in terms, I don't know the whole issue about the books you're talking about. I don't know that. Are you saying his books or his commentary? The commentaries, again, you find the person that wrote the commentary, that wrote their commentaries, you've done well because everybody on these commentaries, they have a team. Matter of fact, now the publishers are going to almost, almost require you to have that. But do I think that he gets a D as a pastor? He may, you know what, it's possible for him to be a good pastor, but to be, to do poor in certain areas. Are you with me? There might be a pastor who's a great pastor who might not be that great when it comes to dealing with, let's say, emotional or mental issues. A lot of, matter of fact, a lot of pastors are caught off guard who did not have a full understanding or any today don't have a full grasp on certain mental issues. And so the people who are suffering who have these mental issues or social issues or physical issues, that pastor, that church is not equipped. And so because of that, because of that, what I give the pastor an overall grade, remember, we're talking about 50 plus years of ministry. And with 50 plus years of ministry, well, then guess what I'll say then, for the most part, yeah, amen. That, that's what I'd say. Could you briefly explain what a Calvinist, I'll do it real quick because that seems to be one of the issues in the chat. A Calvinist is, and you Calvinists don't at me because I'm, I don't say it the way you say it. They tend to hold, just think these five T's to total depravity, which I disagree with, means that mankind is so depraved that he cannot, on his own, decide to make a positive affirmation of faith to God. Unlimited atonement, which I do agree with, has, God, because of man's depravity unconditionally elects some, even now I believe that he unconditionally elects, but that's because he has given everyone a chance and mankind has decided not to, but that's a whole other story. Unlimited atonement that Christ died only for the elected, those under the youth. I, irresistible of race and those who, whom he has elected, they will, they will, they will come irresistibly. And then P, perseverance of the saints, they will last, they will be saved, they will be raised in the end, they cannot lose their salvation. So, if that helps. Should there be mega churches? There's nothing wrong with that, the very first church, as we can tell, was a mega church. The size of the church is not the issue, it's the heart inside the church. It says, Jay Mack has never, Robert said, never responding to any of his, to any of his sins. Well, not that we know of. Again guys, and I want you all to move away from this thought. I want you all to move away from this thought that everything even if something was done publicly needs to be addressed publicly. Now, with this Lady Gray, I think that she needs to be addressed at least privately. Hey, we messed up. Apologize and so forth. But publicly, no, we stopped that. Stop that. Because when you put something on, on, on YouTube, this chat, this chat is now public. So if you say something incorrectly, which by the way, by, let me just say this, some of you guys have said some things in the chats in comment section, either on this channel or other channels or other places, it's public, somebody other than you saw it, and you have not repented for it. Sometimes the way you speak to people is horrible. The heart, the venom, the violent, and you haven't repented for it, you still may be going to heaven though. So does John McCarthy believe in the Godhead? Yes, he does. He believes in the Trinity. As a matter of fact, he believes you don't believe in the Trinity and you can be saved, which is what I believe also. But let's be careful though, guys. I mean, listen, the one thing, I mean, can I ask you guys a question? Let's just put you black folk and for you white folk and for you Asian folk, for you Hispanic folks and for you other folks that aren't, weren't named for you multi-gendered people, for you five binary, nine binary, whatever. Let me ask you guys a question. Let me ask you a question. Have you ever seen or heard of a story of someone being prosecuted and everyone thought the person was good? Everybody thought the person was guilty. Everybody, by all accounts, all the evidence stacked up and this person was guilty. This person was wrong off with his head. Come to find out. Wow, we made a mistake. So be careful. You might be right. You might be right. And even if you are right, I still say in some of those things, it still may not disqualify them. I don't think it does. That's just me. And I saw that. I saw where someone, that's not on him though, but I saw that and maybe the person speaking tongue-in-cheek. Hey, man, this guy is so off. He's okay. So what do we do with that? Because, listen, don't use that to get caught up in the persecution. If this guy, if someone said something nice about me, which they rarely do, but if someone said something nice about me, do your thing, Jess Chet. If someone said something nice about me, every now and then, once a blue, I'll get a nice comment. And then somebody who doesn't like me, you know, I've seen it happen. You know what I'll say? These folks, they just, they just follow you, courted. Okay. Now they're mad at me because someone else said something. No, don't do that. You can't do that. A social media conversation is not legislation nor excommunication. Social media has, listen, I didn't say, again, you, you, you're conflating the two. I said, he needs, their needs, the church needs to make amends to her. Do they need to do so publicly? They don't need to do it publicly. They can do it privately. I think they should. I think they, because in the end, come to find out she was right. They were wrong. Just like Paul confronts Peter, Peter never made a public apology. Matter of fact, we didn't hear Peter speak on it again. We don't know what happened. Paul, all we do know is that he changed his tune about John Mark. At the end of he's dying, bring John Mark to me. He's, he's now useful where previously you don't have anything to do with him. You and, you and Barnabas had a split, had a fall down over it. So I'm saying, yeah, if he's wrong, he's going to give an account. I'm saying, don't you trump his wrong and also, I'm not saying you specifically, anybody, don't you turn around and take his wrong if you think he's wrong and then you'd be just as wrong in the way that you vilify him or not prosecute, but persecute. That's all I'm saying. Now tell me where I'm wrong. Tell me where I'm wrong in us not being merciful. I agree. We all need, we all need to recognize how easy it is to see the speck in another, but fail to see, amen. We all have that issue. Again, that's why it's hard to be a pastor. When I say I'm praying, I'm praying. I am praying, praying, Lord. And what I'm really praying on guys, what I'm really praying is the administrative skills. I think I have the tolerance, I think, but you never know. Because I can promise there's going to be somebody that's just going to do something like fingernails on the chalkboard. Some of you young folks don't know what a chalkboard is. Go back and look at that chalkboard green thing with white chalk on it. You run your fingernails on it. Horrible sound. There's going to be somebody out there that's like that in the church. What does it biblical mean to be on fire for the Lord? The only biblical people that were on fire were the folks that God consumed with fire. But what they really mean is that they have a heart and a passion and that and a desire. And you say some, you don't feel that way currently. That happens. One of the, one of the things that we say, matter of fact, we actually say it religiously and that is our faith is a relationship, not a, not a religion. Well, it's both. Where does the Bible condemn religion? Now, bad religion, Paul says we ought to have a good or pure religion. There are times where guys, you don't feel like doing it. I don't feel like going through. I don't feel like reading. I don't feel like fellowshiping. I don't feel like talking to any of these old rotten, raggedy Christian. Nope. Let me go hand with the atheists. At least they won't hold me to standard. There are some, I just don't feel like it. Tell the truth. Shame the devil. Deal with your pride. Some days you ain't as Christian as you want to be. It is what it is. And if you tell me different, I'm going to call up your line. And I love you, even though you're lying. There are some times, there are some times where you just don't feel it and, but you do it anyway, because I need to. I don't, I don't, I gotta go to church versus some days I get to go to church, but now I got to. Well, that happens. Paul says that we even disparate of life itself mean like, man, this is, this is rough. This is hard. Well, can I tell you the truth though? It's supposed to be. It's supposed to be. Now what I want to be, and I see someone in the comment, I want to be wise. I want to be wise in how I deal with people and how I adjudicate people, how I deal with sin. If a person is dealt with sin or if they made a mistake or if they doesn't mind, I want to be wise. Now, if it all comes out that there's more, that if it ends up being that John McCarthy has done some horrible thing, you know what, he's, he's got some, some, some, some, some, some Taiwanese immigrants tied up in the basement. All right, we'll deal with that. It happens. If we find out that he's been in Bezlin, I'm not saying any of these guys, if we find out some dastry things like that, then we'll deal with that. Okay, I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what, I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying, but since you, since you bring it up, since you bring it up, if there were some concerns, did anybody on the other side accept those concerns, those things? That's the issue. That's, that's, that's the issue, X. If, if I say, if someone comes to me and say, Corey, you're this, this, and this, and I disagree, and folks like, no, you are, and I don't see it. And a lot of the folks do, they, all those folks could be wrong. They could all be wrong. One in my defensive myself matters, but also in my prosecution or persecution, someone else also matters as well. That's the point. That's the point that I'm trying to get at X. John MacArthur is not the bad guy, the boogeyman, the wrong guy. He is not. He's not. And you guys, I think many of you are going to miss the boat and miss the blessing because you want to, you want to go this route. Now, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong, but I'm wrong for, I'm wrong for showing grace. Now, I'm not showing wrong for showing grace to a clear wolf. I'm not wrong for showing grace to a clear wolf because he's not a clear wolf. He's, he's, he's just not. I think John MacArthur is a man of God. Now, would I go so far and say he's worth five or five percent of whatever, whatever the statement was? No, I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say that about anybody. I wouldn't say that about anybody. But I get why he said it. I understand what he was saying. And by the way, when John MacArthur showed up, what conference was that? Was that the Shepherds Conference? I'm sorry. When he showed up, I was happy. It's like, you know, there he goes. Good job. I'm glad to see you there. I'm glad to see you there. I'm happy. I was happy. Now, how much longer is John MacArthur going to be around? I don't think it's going to be a long time because he's already in his 80s. Time takes a toll on you no matter who you are. Now, me, I'm going to live to 128. I've worked this out with God. I'm going to live to 128. The rest of you folks, you're going to die, you know, a lot sooner than me. No, I'm kidding. We're all going to die. We're all going to die at some point in time, including John MacArthur. So I don't, obviously, no matter how long he, he wants to, his body nor will the Lord allow him to. That's just the case. And so, you know what I pray? I pray that God blesses him and his ministry, that God blesses his family, that God takes care of that church, that God gives them many more. If they don't have any, then some Godly men, if the men they have there are, are Godly than more. I don't go to Grace Community Church. And so therefore, I don't know as much, matter of fact, to be told, most of the folks that are, that are having an issue to say about it don't know as much as they think that they know. I've read an article, heard this and heard that or whatever. Okay, we'll fine. There seems to be, listen, there seems to be some reason why the overwhelming majority of the people there are still there. And so, yeah, you know what, you might be right. Maybe I could ask those people about John MacArthur. But then what if I ask some other people about them, about who's Zorro and what if I ask somebody about them and they say, well, no, these guys are horrible. Do you think there's somebody that, see, that's not how we do things, guys. And I wish you, I wish you guys would learn this from me. Just learn this from me. That's not how we do things. That's not how we do things. Matter of fact, wait a second. All right. Okay. Okay. Coffee time. I have something to say. I got something to say. So Bob is a bad guy. Bob is a bad guy because Frank said so. I'm not sure if Frank is telling the truth, but Mary and Tony agree. If I go to Mary and Tony and say, hey, what do you think about Bob? Yeah, he's horrible. But I've got five or 10 other people that say, yeah, but wait a second. Mary and Tony, they can't be trusted. So what you end up doing is you end up trying to figure out who's, who to give way to in terms of what they've said, in terms of who to give way to that based on what they've said. Now I don't know who said what, how to say it because now it becomes hearsay. It becomes, she feels that way. They feel that way. Well, what about them? Well, these people are also just as bad. So what do I have if I've got someone who is, now I'm not saying any of these people are. I'm not saying I'm just, I'm just giving a, for instance, because I've seen it happen. I've, where this person who's on the stand giving a testimony about this person coming to find out this person hadn't told the truth in 37 years. This person's a paid informant. This person is, is a liar. This, whatever. I don't know. I don't know. Now that being the case, I would be foolish to take this person's word over that person's word. Well, maybe this person that was speaking in this case, John McCarthy, he ought to say something says who to who I wish he would. I told you I wish he would because he doesn't. All right. He's persona non grata. Would I seek to interview Elder Han Cho? I could. I wouldn't have a problem with interviewing him. I really wouldn't. And by the way, based on what I've read from him, I'm thinking, you know what? Okay. I think based on what he said is true. I mean, what he said, I mean, I'm inclined to agree with the folks like, Hey, John, you're on. And I already think that they made a mistake, at least with Eileen Gray. I'm inclined to do so. But then what if we get a report that Elder Cho has an actual axe to grind as well? Now, what do we do? Do you think that there's somebody there that dislikes Elder Cho? And what if we say yet, we find that yet? Now, what do we do? Do y'all see it? And if you don't see it, I'm sorry, I can't be helped. If you don't see it, if there are some people that are going to also accuse the person that's accusing. So since I don't have the whole story on some of the things and can't get the things that I do know, again, hindsight with this person, as a matter of fact, another lady, okay, misstep and misstep. Now, what do I do? I still, I still like, I still like John McCarter. If you die before 128, what will people say about your ministry, brother? I wasn't a prophet, but no, I'm not a prophet. I'm not telling you guys, I'm just, I'm saying it tongue in cheek. I'd like to be 120 years old so I can say I lived in this century, that century and that century. No, Michael, he didn't, he didn't address the issue publicly and apologize. Now, does he have to address it publicly? No, I think he does need to address her. I think he should address her. But does he have? No. I think if, if, what, treat the topic because it's out there, I just want to have a conversation. I honestly don't know how much longer he's around. And so I wonder, I think again, and by the way, if I generically say people that are too far this extreme or too far that extreme, you shouldn't, you shouldn't be too far this extreme in favor of John McCarter or anyone else and you shouldn't be too far on this extreme against John McCarter or anyone else. Wouldn't you normally agree? Now, if I say that you're, that you are not saying that you are, but if I say that you are one of the ones that's too far extreme, you say, no, I'm not. Well, now we're back to you doing, me doing the same thing that you're doing to someone else. No, I'm not. You won't accept it. Well, they want to, okay. So guys, all I'm saying is have some balance. And then at some point in time, at some point in time, at some point in time, God will take care of these things. God will shake it out. But it is not unless the person is, now where I draw the line at, this is me personally, where I draw the line at, if the person is putting out rank heresy. Yeah, if someone has twists and scriptures, that's different. So yes, Jennifer, I've, matter of fact, I did a video on that, Jennifer, about the Mark of the Beast and why I mentioned it briefly earlier today as well. Do you think that they idolize John at the Shepherds Conference? Some people do. Some people do idolize. Listen, without a question, some people idolize John McCarter. Some people idolize T.D. Jakes. Some people idolize Tony Evans. Some people idolize Charles Stanley. Some people idolize Adrian Riders. He's passed away. Some people idolize a lot of people. And so, yeah, there are some that do. There are some that do. I don't know. But see, now what we're doing is, what we're doing now is, let's find everything wrong with everybody that's also associated with him. I'm not doing that. I'm not, you know, he had a cousin that ran a red light. You know, one of his sons, one of his sons, okay, fine. So now, now we've got to go back and impugn everybody off again. Samuel, we can't trust anything that Samuel said or did because of his sons. I'm not, I'm not doing that. You can't listen. You can do that, guys. You can do that. You can do that. I'm not. Yeah, Michael, he owes her apology. But give me, when you say he owes her a public or he owes the public something. Give me, give me the passage that says so. Give me the passage that says so. So, wait a minute, that can't be true. Some people idolize court. No, listen, listen, I wish, I kind of wish it were the case. No, I'm kidding. But that's not, that's not, that's not. What's the difference between, good point, between honor and idolization? How can you tell the difference when you can, when you can see that the person can do no wrong? When the person can do no wrong, that's idolizing. Now, the flip side, if the person can do no, can do no right. Or just as bad if the person does right and you want to slap him for it. Yeah, but, yeah, but when you do this, and I'm gonna make some folks mad, but if the name John MacArthur wrangles you, get you upset. Let's put John MacArthur aside and now we're gonna deal with you. And there's an issue with you. There's not a person out there, if you said their name, that I'm bothered by. Not one. Now, if the name John MacArthur gets you excited like, wow, can't wait. Y'all remember, some of you all remember this, especially if you are in your, not your 40s probably, but definitely your 50s. Definitely your 50s, maybe your 60s. Now, can you call his name that doesn't wrangle me? You know why? Because I don't have to deal with him. He's not, he's not my problem. Now, I'm gonna keep preaching the gospel, but I, this is what I recognize guys, the overwhelming majority of people are going to disregard what we're saying. So I don't get too bothered when they don't. I know it already. The overwhelming majority of people that call themselves Christians are going to do the exact same thing. So I don't get too bothered. My, my, my heart goes out for people to hear this, but that's fine. One plants, another waters, but ultimately God gives the increase of balls, not in my hand. So I don't have to, I don't have to be upset because this person didn't face the face of faith in Christ. Now, let me ask you guys a question. Do y'all remember? Oh, come on thing. There it is. Do y'all remember back in the 80s, back in the 80s, mid 80s, really the early 80s, the early 80s, 83, 80. Matter of fact, definitely 83. There was a guy who seemed like everybody idolized this guy. This guy could do no wrong. Of course it was pretty corny. This guy would wear one glove. This guy would wear his pants a little too short. He would wear these little sparkly socks because his pants were short. They would, they would show he had these little penny loafers. That guy, that guy, they idolized him so much that even if you were an, a, an imitator, if you, you had guys that would pretend to be Michael Jackson with the curl and everything, the glasses and so forth and people followed that prayer. That guy was idolized so much. People like just breathing heavy and so forth. Yeah, Nathan. Yeah. Now, where Michael Jackson went wrong was when he left Indiana, went to California. That, that never good thing to do, leave Indiana, go to California, but that'd be the case. So you had that. So we know what, we know what it looks like today. We saw people who would idolize Obama. We saw people that would idolize Trump. I don't think anybody actually idolizes Biden. I'm pretty sure they don't. They just hate Trump, but we've seen that before. We've got folks that idolize Reagan. We've got people that idolize people today and they say, I don't idolize them. Well, the person can do no wrong. You defend them at all costs. Or if you hate the person or persecute the person at all costs. Not me. Not me. So now, but Corey, wait a second. Haven't you called out so-and-so four, five, six times? Sure. You mentioned her name. Doesn't bother me. I'm good. Because I'm not calling out, I'm calling out what they're, what they're teaching the doctrine. So trying to get into someone's heart. And if I'm, if I'm right again, persecute your cause as best you can or you want to, but you better be right. That's all. Do you know how I know we have a problem? And then we'll get ready to end. But do you know how I know we have a problem on both sides? There are people who are bothered at me for not being as bothered at, at, uh, John MacArthur as they are. You have a problem. If you're bothered, if you're upset with me for not being as upset as you are about him, you also have a problem. Forget John MacArthur for a second. You have a problem. Now, if you're bothered because someone doesn't love MacArthur as much as you do, you also have a problem. If someone can criticize MacArthur and it bothers you, if someone can criticize MacArthur and it really bothers you, you don't like with, no, and your, your knee jerk response is to defend, then you have a problem. Sometimes when we look at other people, we, we should be able to see our issues as well. And that's, that's kind of where I want to be. Why today there's no, you said your problem is why today? What's wrong with today? I should, should I have done it on, on, on, on Tuesday or next week, next month? When should I, when should I have covered it? J Mac is going to heaven period. I would probably tend to agree. I mean there's, I don't know for sure. Don't know for sure. But I would, I would say probably so the way, the way it looks, I would say so. We can't make the mistake of saying he's billy sound. So we overlook sin. He may have committed. We have to wait. We do, we do. And I've said, listen, I've, I've called it out. I've said what I, what I disagree with. I think it's wrong and so forth. And you know what I've done? Move done. Mood. That's it. I don't, I'm, I'm trying to, I don't understand why you're asking what the topic, why the topic today? What it, was it, is it something wrong with today? It wasn't, wasn't, nothing, nothing stirred this up. Nothing got this going. I've got a list of things. I said, I'm going to cover these things. So, and I was going to do, I did, I did the truth about Vodibacca about a year or so ago. My intention was to do the truth about these different people who others respect. I couldn't do a short one on John MacArthur. I couldn't. The one about Vodibacca was about five or six minutes long. I couldn't do that one today. I couldn't, I couldn't do that. So, there's, there's no real reason. There's no ulterior motives. There's nothing, nothing. Hold on. Hold on. Let's see this. All right. Look, John MacArthur, this is, John MacArthur teaches, preaches the false gospel. He's a, he's a, okay. See, this is where, this is, you're, you're on the wrong channel because here you've got to earn a statement. I would prefer that you do. I would prefer that you do. What, what's the false gospel he preaches? Would you go to, would you go to Gray's Community Church if Eileen Gray was your daughter? Would I go to Gray's Community Church? Well, it, it, well, see, that's why you can't answer a question because that would affect me personally. Now I've got some skin in the game. It's like the guy that jumped on my daughter or did something to violate my daughter. Could, could I, could I sit on the, on the bus right beside him? No. Could you? Yes. Why? See, what we do sometimes is we, we, we want to make the emotional argument and then that governs, that would be hard for me. I mean, I, let's not treat my, I look at my daughters as though they're gold. Now, do I, do I look at your daughters the same way I look at my daughter? No. There's a, there's four billion other daughters on the planet. I don't look at them the same way I look at mine. And so because of that, because now, and I want you all to notice, I've never said that John MacArthur didn't, or the church himself or him, because ultimately he's responsible, didn't do wrong. I, I didn't say that guys. I did not say that. Here's what's funny though. Here's what's funny. 99% of the people, no, no, no, I shouldn't say that, but a lot of people will, will, will agree with me and follow me. And then the moment that I, that I say something that hits your one nerve, I got disagree with you Corey. Okay. Fine. That, that's fine. That's fine. And I don't want to be me or anything like that or whatever, but you know, we'll be okay. We'll be okay if we disagree about John MacArthur or not. We'll be okay if we disagree about Tony Evans or not. We'll be okay if we disagree. I'm good. I don't think a lot of you guys are. I don't think a lot of you guys, this, I don't think you all are seeing this. You guys, some of you guys have a problem and I mean a problem. You should not be this offended. Do you think that, do you think I don't stand for truth or do some of you guys think that I'm what you call a fan boy? Do you think I'm a fan boy? I've made videos critiquing John MacArthur. The problem is if you, maybe you feel like you're being critiqued by me not critiquing him. What, what is, oh, what is the painting of that, that is above your head. That is the greatest painting in the world. My grandson, three, we call them three because he's Anthony Harper the third. He painted that. It's supposed to be a picture of me. Yeah. It's supposed to be a, and it's not the, the part on top is not hair. That's my bald head. He had to make that brown. So, so, but anyway, see, I'm not for all of us arguing and fighting and this and that when there's no need to. Listen, even the guys that disagreed with me on documents, listen, fine, you disagree. You disagree. But can we, can we still be brothers and I'll have a conversation with you. I'll have a debate with you and I'll still love you after that. You know why? Because again, you know what I wish? I wish that I didn't have all these cables if I was better cable management. You know, I know you made the videos and moved on. Well, I moved on because there's bigger fish to fry, which leads me to the point that I was making. I wish that a lot of you guys went to prison. That's, of course, that's a mean thing to say. No, I wish a lot of you guys found yourself in prison. I wish you guys found yourself in a situation to where you saw things a little bit different, you experienced some things. That's, that's what I wish. That's what I wish because I think you guys have lost track of what's actually happening out there. Maybe I'll have to get some of you guys as close enough to me and come out, come out on the streets with me. Maybe that's what I'll do. Maybe I need to go and get, get some of you guys going on the streets with me and, and share the gospel and so forth and see the folks who are angry, who want to kill somebody, who want to kill themselves, who are frustrated, who are down and out and then see how much this makes any sense. Does it, does it matter? Sure it matters. Sure this stuff matters and obviously it matters to the families who were, who were involved, to the great family, the great children. Obviously it matters, obviously, but to the degree, to the degree that I should persecute them that the way that some folks want me to persecute them ain't gonna happen. Every last one of the people in the chats has a certain thing. Has that, everybody in the chat has the same thing that I have. Everybody has the same thing that I have. Because you are in the chats means that you have a YouTube channel which means you can go make a video about them all day long if you want to and make a video about some other people. I have decided that at least no more than about 50% of the videos are gonna call somebody out. No more than, go back and encounter them. No more than 15% of the videos. Why? Because I want it to be majority teaching and uplifting. What's my biggest problem with Joel Osteen? He's not John McCarthy. No I'm kidding. My biggest problem with Joel Osteen is Joel Osteen presents a non-gospel. He presents everything as he says you can have your best life. He does not present the need for the gospel. You can have your best life. What he does is he's what Paul says is gonna happen that people will have these itching ears and will look for people to teach what they want to hear and they've gone to his church. So that's it. No I don't know no no no no no no no no no no no no no Joe. I'm not really saying I want people in prison. I'm not saying yo here what I'm saying guys of yo let's what I'm saying. I don't want you guys. First of all most of you guys you guys couldn't handle in prison, I'm just being, but secondly, what I'm saying is I want you guys to see the big picture, the true picture. I'm not saying that people disagreeing with you doesn't make your experience the way to be enlightened. Have I, okay, let me ask you guys a question. And let me ask you, let me ask you a question, brother. How you doing, by the way? Let me ask you guys a question. The people that disagree with John MacArthur, have I also said, hey, I disagree with the handling? Have I not said that? The issue is I just hadn't gone as far as they are. Well, that's not my cross to bear. I'm not going as far as you, but I literally have agreed on a lot of the things that you agree with. But how you handle those things, sorry, sorry. I'm just not gonna do it. No, I'm not saying you guys need to go to prison. You guys don't need to go to prison. What I'm saying is I want us all to get a better perspective on things. It's bigger than what we see. That's all I'm saying, guys. So no, no, you don't have to, I was joking, guys. I do not want you, I do not want you guys to go to prison. I was tongue-in-cheek. Don't tell me people on this channel can handle me. I'm just, so that's really the point though, Joshua. It's humbling and how you see people after being humbled is different than prior to being humbled. You know, the cousin of humble is humiliation. When you've been humiliated, when you've been humiliated and you've been humbled, you tend to treat people a little bit nicer, different, a little more grace than prior. And when I see some of you guys, let me just say this. This is the part that's bothersome. Yeah, yeah, I'll say before we go to prison. This is the part that's bothersome. Sometimes when I see the way that you guys treat each other, sometimes I, there's sometimes I want just disquieting in a godly way, sometimes in a rough way. When I see the way that sometimes you guys treat each other, the way that you treat people who call themselves believers, you don't know if they are or not, but some people that call themselves believers. When I see the way that you treat in the chats or I see, I might go and check out a lot of times, I'm sitting there at the desk working or at the church working and I'm on the computer, I'm doing some work and I just happened to catch somebody else who was on YouTube. And I see, hey, so and so is in the chest. And I see you going back and forth with the person, just arguing, it does bother me. And I wish that you guys would see differently. I told you there was a guy in prison who, he was the one that's pentacostal. One that's pentacostal, he ain't saved. My response to you guys is sometimes shut up. Sometimes shut up, because you just don't, you just, sometimes people call themselves something that have no idea what they are. Corey, he told us to shut up. Yeah, I did. I did. Sometimes you guys are just so quick to make a statement and to something to express your opinion. I'm not talking about the doctor. See that we can make an assessment of because it's in black and white. But this guy, his name was Laxie. One is pentacostal. There were two guys at this compound, at Beaumont. Myself and him, we were like the two guys that were like the speakers for the Christian community. Me, y'all know what I pretty much believe. All of this has been some changing since then though, at that time. But it was not like him, ultra charismatic pentacostal or whatever. And all we wanna do is just share the guys, there's some guys, because you know what we said to ourselves, people aren't here because of bad doctrine. They're here because of a bad heart. Like us, and so let's go ahead and just share Christ as much as we can. Some of these folks might not make it out of this prison. So let's just share Christ. Now Laxie started coming to the Bible study. He started changing a whole lot of what he believed. You know what caused that? Not the super great teaching that I was given. No, it was the spirit that was in him. The spirit that was in him even when he had error. Let the Lord, sometimes you wanna work in people more than you wanna let the Lord work in people. So, and I say this enough times guys, but sometimes you need to position yourself in a way to where you look at the Lord as though you're unworthy, because sometimes we in these YouTube streets talking like we're worthy. Going at folks like we're worthy. Yeah, we do that. And I say shame on you. Now I can't do anything to you. I can love you, hey man, I hope it gets better, but God is gonna deal with you. And because it's easy to be tough on YouTube, it's easy, it's easy, it's easy. I see the, and I'm not just saying it, I say this enough because I want you guys to get this. I've seen folks who will kill you in a minute. Then I hear you guys talk the talk and talk the smack or whatever and like, okay, well, all right, I'm not one of these guys that I know some killers. No, I know some killers, I know some killers. And you see how they, it's different. It's different, it's easy. It's different, it's easy. You can shoot your shot and get off on somebody, but do not fear those who can kill the body, but fear him who can kill the body and after that, send it to him. Because I'm not gonna be shocked if I find out that a lot of the subscribers or many folks in this chat aren't actually saved. I'm not gonna, why would I be so naive? But I hope you guys can fill my heart. I really do, I really wish that you guys will fill my heart. If all the folks that you wanna go after and persecute and be mad at what have you, okay, fine. Do you have a legitimate reason? Maybe you do, maybe you do. But to the degree that some of you do, that's unfortunate. Would you say, I'm from Beaumont. Unfortunately, you had to be in my city under the, well, you know what, Beaumont is actually a beautiful city. Beaumont is, here's a funny thing. When they brought us in, the worst prison trip ever. We had to go from Oklahoma city, the transit center. And they put us on a bus. And you all have seen these prison buses. You probably know it was a prison bus, though. And we're shackled, feet shackled, waist shackled with our hands to our waist. You cannot use the bathroom. Now this is, because it's a bus and we're making some stops along the way. It's about a 11 hour trip, almost 12 hours at the end point who's driving. Rough, oh, rough. But there's a coastline there. We pass by the coast. This is so, this is pretty poor off. I guess it was really the coast. Pretty, pretty. Never got a chance to really do some sightseeing. But Beaumont taught me. Beaumont humbled me. I was the guy. I was the guy who would say all these things. That guy, that, that guy, that, that guy, that. Look at him, he knows better. But you know what the Lord did to me? What he's, what, well I just hear him speaking to me. Later, if any man thinks he stands, take he, let's he fall. I thought I stood. I thought I would never gonna happen to me, okay? So now if you guys just listen, here's the thing. If you guys disagree with my assessment, what was my heart behind the assessment? Now, if you really wanna be consistent, what have I said bad about Charismatics? I've talked about the doctor, not the people, Black Dirty, Black Dirty. I said Black Dirty, Black Dirty, I'm sorry. Black Dirty. What have I said? I've spoken about the doctor, not about him. Now those that intentionally, and we know who those that are intentionally, who are intentionally, Twisting Scripture. When you say that you have pulled a snake out of someone's back, and we all know good and well you did not. Now what have we left to do? And by the way, those very same people, I've offered to speak with them, not just publicly, privately. And I initially gave them the benefit of doubt. But no, not now. Nice jacket, this is my, you gotta be 50 or older to wear this jacket, jacket. Yeah, I would not have worn this jacket if I had been in my 20s or 30s. When you get older, you can wear a certain stuff that you just like, yeah, okay, it's warm. So, all I wanna say guys is, don't forget to love the person you met it. Don't forget to love the person that, uh-oh, what did I push? Oh, I didn't push anything. Don't forget to show the look. You know what, I don't know if he said he, you would definitely wear it, Donovan, thank you. I have my style, I guess, is transcendent. Old head and youngsters, amen. I don't know if he says it's a literal or what have you. I don't know. He doesn't know, clearly it's not true. Clearly he even put a little x-ray with a person with a snake in it. Some folks fell for that. It does mark that. Prison humbled me as well. Getting shipped up the road, yeah, it does. It does. And so I try to bring that in whenever I speak to you guys about anything. The chats weren't good, just chat. And I apologize, I should set a better standard. I should set a better standard. But here's what's sad though. Here's what's sad. We were talking about another brother in Christ and it got that bad. I'll go back and look at the chats. Oh, you too, Ken? Yeah. He'll do it wherever you are. Now I'm bothered, now I'm hurt. Let's, well, you know why he is this controversial? Because he kind of is the biggest out there. Let me just, can I give you a, for instance, let me throw some names out who haven't said any, who haven't given out any heresy. But people are gonna be upset when they got, if I say, let's see, who could I say? If I say Alan Parr, he's one of the bigger individual YouTubers. Oh, he is, he's that, he's so, he didn't do it. Or did that or what have you? Okay, is this Dr. No, no, but, okay, all right. Who else? You name, so when you get to a certain side, it's easy to go after them and I get it, I get it. And what they say, what they do is out there. What would you all do if you found out that your pastor, who you love, did that? And it's like, no, I don't think I did anything wrong. I don't, I disagree. Anyway, I don't, I don't, I don't agree. Anyway, now, now, am I a fan of Joe, am I a fan of Julie Roy's? No, I think she clearly has an ax to grind. Does that mean that what she says is wrong? Everything that she says is wrong? No, I don't think that, I don't think so either. But now, do I think that her doctor, clearly not. So, he might be, he might be, this is legitimate concern, he says, one concern often overlooked in the name of mercy and grace is the sanctification of the one who may be in the wrong. We are one of God's means towards that end. And listen, if, again, if a person is going after a person because that person is in the wrong, what did I say earlier? I said, you better be right. You better be right. That's all. You better be right, you better know it all. You, matter of fact, you might wanna do as much done as you can because if you are doing so, and you're wrong, who's gonna deal with you? That's all I'm saying. And so, for that reason, listen, if you feel like I don't go far enough, then fine, I don't go far enough. I'm giving you guys my opinion. So, all right guys. So, I just wanted to put in my two, three, four, five cents. This is what I think. I think doctrinally he's straight. I think hermeneutically he's straight. Now, does that mean that we agree on everything? Doctrinally? No, no, we don't. I think probably I just got a lot of views, we probably do. Do I agree with maybe all of his tactics on at the church? I don't know enough about his tactics. Would I have handled everything the way he would? I'm pretty sure I would. I'm pretty sure none of us would. So, but overall, I'm still a fan. Overall, I'm still good with John MacArthur. Now, you decide if you are or you're not, clearly there's some of you guys that are not, but I do want you all to check your heart whether you're for him or not, because I don't know, I haven't seen. I'm going with chess champ. He said the chats weren't too good. And if the chats, because of John MacArthur, got you guys this way? Yeah, you might want to look at yourself. You might want to deal with you. Wouldn't that be sad if here you are dealing with John MacArthur, angry with him, and then God comes back and deals with you because of how you dealt with him? I could be wrong. But guess what, guess what, guess what guys, guess what, are we on good terms KS? I think so. I don't know why we wouldn't. Now, clearly we disagree with this, we clearly disagree with this. We clearly disagree with this, which is fine. He can be wrong. I would not go, I'm not persecuted. And I think if anyone, I am not going to treat the believer like that, I'm not doing that. That's just not me, not me, because I know me. I know what can be happening. I know what I might be doing behind the scenes or what you might be doing behind the scenes or what have you. Y'all think that just because it's not known publicly that God doesn't know. Has it, he says it's been right. Well, then we're going to fix that. Dog on it? Well, we'll have to talk about that. We'll have to cover that. Because it shouldn't be, what happens is this, people love controversy. People love controversy. But if I cover an actual teaching, what was it? There was one, I said, you know what? You ever did something that felt like, yeah, I did, I think I liked the way that I did that. Now, the folks that watch it won't be as many people. I can, if I do a teaching lesson, nope, now let me cover somebody controversial or kind of, we're here. Get this riled up about hermeneutics. Do I evaluate people merely about on right belief or on practice as well, but not as much. And the reason why, and I won't y'all hear my heart, then I'm gonna go ahead and leave. But the reason why I don't get too much on some of the methodology of what people do often, as much as what they believe or their doctrine, is because doctrine, I can judge the other things. I now step into the place where I'm possibly judging their heart. And I don't want to do that incorrectly. Now, sometimes you just see it. But God, a man goes on a killing spree, you know, his heart is open to be, we can judge that. So that's all I'm saying. I might be wrong. I might be wrong with everything I just said, but this is just me saying what I'm saying. And I'm saying, so out of love. And I'm saying for one, for the sake of you. And I don't, y'all know, I don't agree with just, let's be unified for the sake of being unified, no? No, so, but we are going to have to deal with this issue of the chats, of the hearts of the people. And if that means running some folks off, hey, listen, no problem. What about, what about KDevTrue? If you have something cool, I'm cool then. I don't think y'all realize this. I'm really cool with everybody. I really, I don't have even people that have made videos about me who have said things or I've said things about them. I really am cool with them. I really am. You might not want to believe it, but I am. If for God, I haven't blocked him, if he were to call me right now, hey, what's going on, brother? How you doing? Now I'm saying brother, in a generic sense. How you doing? Oh man, listen, let's have a conversation. If Isaiah Saldivar wanted to talk, hey, let's talk. Marcus Riders, brother, let's talk. When I see guys on the streets who are just doing some stuff. I mean, let me talk for a second, brother. Let me have a conversation. This is just, this is how I do. Do you, are you really? And I'll, sometimes I'll say it straight up. I told a guy, man, listen, are you trying to die? Are you dumb? Are you just looking for some attention? What is the deal with you, brother? And the guy's like, what? Man, listen, let me tell you something. No, he, no, Greg like never replied. I don't, I don't expect him to. Why are you leaving proper? Don't leave, don't put yourself out. You stay in the name of Jesus. I'm kidding. And you know what, Alicia? Some people you can't reach from their jerk. There's some people, though, that have a gift of reaching the jerks. Some people have a gift of reaching the jerks. And so what I do, when I see a person, that depends on how they are. You can't just go up to any and you really cannot. That would be foolish. But there's sometimes I see an opening and hey, let me talk for a second cause you about to kill yourself or kill somebody and you're gonna regret it for the next 70 years of your life. Some, some people you have an opening to go into. Some people you just can't. I don't talk to everybody that's out there just acting. I would not do that. Would not do that. Some people, hey, I'm gonna leave you alone. Wanda Wooten, hey, Wanda, how are you? Yeah, by the way, I was supposed to have a conversation today with Jehovah's Witnesses. They said he'll be here today. I made sure I left the church on time to be here. Guess who didn't show up? I said, are you promised you're gonna be here cause you guys oftentimes say you're gonna come back. I would love to have this conversation with you guys cause I think what you're doing is you're hurting yourself and you're gonna miss heaven out of pride and ignorance. He said, oh, I'm sure. Still waiting. Today is Thursday, right? Yeah, he said be here Thursday. So I do love people's souls. I really do. You absolutely right. Cory's not above criticism. That's why the people that have actually criticized me. I said, hey, would you like to come on and expose me? Tell me what's wrong. Tell me why I'm this, why I'm that. Yeah, but I wouldn't. Okay, X, I wouldn't quite say it like that though. I wouldn't say that. See, I wouldn't say that about him. I wouldn't say it about the other people who have, I've had issues with. Sometimes you just, you said you've been in prison. Sometimes being the toughest guy out there will be the first guy to get shot, right? Sometimes being the loudest, toughest, the biggest, the baddest, the guy that wants to call it out. Sometimes that's the first person that's getting shot. The first person and all, who we gonna shoot that one? I'm not, I disagree with him on some issues and I love him to death. Love him to death. The folks that were mad at me because the whole issue, let me just say this. I'm gonna say this and I'm definitely gonna. The folks that had the issue with Seiko, they felt like I took Seiko's side. I did not take Seiko's side. I said something about both sides. He's just the only one that didn't cut me off, which I appreciate that. We're not kids. I can tell you where I disagree and that'd be that. So I give him credit and kudos for that. Some of the others, I know at least one or two, maybe three that blocked me. I haven't blocked them. Matter of fact, still subscribed to the channel. So, and I've told him, hey, this is what I think. I didn't say it publicly. I did say something publicly about it. Hey, I did say something publicly. It was cool, all right? I disagree, fine. We moved on. So I'm not out here trying to condemn the people that call themselves brothers. I'm just not gonna do it, which is why. Anybody that wants to kick it with me and my father, you are more than welcome to come to the table. So now I'm out here taking too long. Listen, I thank you guys so much. I want you to hear my heart. This is exactly what led me to believe. This has led me to think something else that I'm gonna have to address. And so, Jazz Champ, I'm definitely gonna address this. I'm gonna deal with that. Yeah, amen, Barbara. Amen, ex. Yeah, no, David, we're leaving. We're leaving. Guys, I love you all. I will see you tomorrow. We're having our Q&A tomorrow. In the meantime, be blessed. Share God's love with somebody. Amen, amen.

I think this is one of the most horrific stories you will read anyway, and unbelievably revealing of kind of the agenda of the new left, of the modern left, of the wacky left, but the wacky left as institutionalized all over this country. And that is the story of what is today still I think ranked as the number one high school in the United States. Number one high school in the United States is the Thomas Jefferson appropriately named I think high school for science and technology in Virginia. This is a high school that many, many parents move to Virginia in order for their kids to attend. It is a high school that places in the top universities in the United States, really in the world. It's a high school that is in the state of Virginia, as you might know, so it's in somewhere northern Virginia, not exactly where, but in northern Virginia. It also happens to be a public high school. So this is a high school run by the government. So it's a public high school run by the state of Virginia, and yet it is managed over many, many years to establish itself as one of the top high schools in the country if not the top high school in the country. I guess it's in Fairfax County. Okay, Fairfax County really is suburbs of DC, northern Virginia. The Virginia Attorney General has just launched an investigation into practices at the school, and let me just say right in advance, appropriately so, absolutely so, and here are two big issues that are going to be investigated. I think the one which says it all is the fact that the school has been withholding, not telling its students, when they have achieved awards. In particular, let's see what's the award called. This is the, God, where is it? Yes, the National Merit Scholarship, I guess, they give awards, they commend students. National Merit Honours, I think they call, these National Merit Honours are available to students to score very high in standardized tests. And they are important in some colleges and universities' decisions about accepting students, the top universities, top colleges use this in accepting. It's also crucial to receiving scholarships. So there are, let's see, something like 800 special scholarships from evil corporate sponsors, of course, from those businessmen, 800 special scholarships for extraordinary students, for students of ability, for students who score very high in these tests, the students who get the National Merit Honours. Well, it turns out that for years now, the administration at the Thomas Jefferson School has been withholding these awards the notice that students had received the awards from the students and their parents. They've often not let them know at all, they've let them know late, they've sat on these announcements so that the students could not use this information in their applications for early admittance into colleges, so a lot of these students have missed opportunity. Haven't heard about it until after they've already been turned down or accepted by certain universities, and only then do they know that they've got this award. This has been going on now for several years. Interestingly enough, this is, of course, a school dominated by Asian students, a significant number of its student body is Asian. I read the story of one kid who is an Arab American, Shawana Yasso, that's the name of the parent, not the student, but her son studied hard, took the most advanced classes, and actually won a National Merit Honours scholarship and didn't hear about it. Applied to the university, he's not knowing he had won and didn't get into his top choices partially because he hadn't, they didn't let him know. I mean, these are people who are running, not just some random high school, but they're running what everybody knows and they know is the top high school in the country, where a significant number of the students over the last five years, this sitting in this information has affected the lives of 1,200 students, 1,200 students. One former student said he learned he won the award through a random email from the school to a school district email account that students rarely check. The principal neither told his parents nor made any kind of public announcement. Now, just so you understand, the principal and the, this guy is what, this guy is a, ooh, I thought I, yeah, there he is, the Director of Student Services, Brandon Costaca. He's the, he's the Director of Student Services. The principal is, anyway, whatever the name of the principal is, they know exactly what they're doing. This is not accidental. This is not a consequence of, well, they just, they're just incompetent. The mail got lost. They have a bad address. It sat on a secretary's desk for a while. They were busy. Other things going on. No, this was a purposeful attempt not to recognize achievement, not to recognize students knowing that such an attempt jeopardizes the success of these students. Um, Costaca admitted that the decision to withhold the information from parents and inform the students in a low key way, low key way, like late and maybe never, was intentional. Quote, I mean, think about what this says. Um, think about what this says about the, what this man's view of the world is. Quote, we want to recognize students for what they are as individuals, not focus on their achievements. I didn't read that five times. We want to recognize students for what they are as individuals, not focus on their achievements. So what they are as individuals has nothing to do with their achievements. What they are as individuals is, no, this is not double talk. This is serious stuff. This is deep philosophy, right? Look, we're all determined by our genes and our environment. Our achievements are not our achievements. They are just the consequence of random occurrences in the universe. They are the consequence of being born to the right parents at the right time, with the right genes in the right place and having loving family. And you get no credit for your achievements. And in the sense, you don't have any free will, you don't get any credit for it really, most things, but you know, your emotions, the kind of person you are, you know, you're nice and friendly and the, the, the, that that is what you are as an individual. Your achievements, that's your genes. This is a consequence of the God, of the determinism that dominates today's academia. This is a consequence of the, the Wallsian view that we are the Wallsian political scientists. The wall just determined political scientists and philosophy. The wall just determined mystic nothings. This is the consequence of the evolutionary psychological view that you don't determine your fate, therefore you are not responsible for your achievement. This is that, this is the same as I think the worst presidential speech in all human history, which was Obama's, you didn't build that speech. Well, you didn't achieve that. You don't deserve that. You don't get the award because you didn't do it. The focus is on purely what kind of individual are you and what kind of individual are you, has nothing to do with your achievements. It has everything to do with, I don't know, your emotions, because this is how Cospacca continues. He said that he and his principal, they just didn't want to hurt the feelings of the students who didn't get the award. Talk about altruism and egalitarianism and envy and hatred of the good and hatred of achievement and who, who, who is the bastard who put these people in charge of the school? I mean, these people shouldn't be in charge of anything, not even their own life, but who put them in charge of the number one school in America? How did they get that position? Yeah, I mean, this is what the superintendents, maybe this is these the people, the superintendent of Fairfax County Public Schools, said, he said, you know, this was a mistake to be honest, right? We, you know, we have to do something special, commendations, sends a very strong message to kid, right? Your work is meaningful. If you work hard in life, there are good benefits from that. It's just so mild. This isn't a mistake. This is pure evil. And it was over and over and over again over time. So Kostaka sent an email after it was caught. This, this all came out in December. And December 12th after it was caught, Kostaka sent an email to parents of the commended students notifying them the important recognition and saying, we're deeply sorry for not sharing the news earlier. This is, this is part of the war on merit. This is part of the war on achievement. This is part of the war on free will. But it doesn't end there, folks. It doesn't end there. The principle of the school, the guy in charge of the school who was appointed in charge of the school, this is the top school in the United States, has been lobbying incessantly to make the school not the best school in the United States, to eliminate the merit-based acceptance standards to the school. The principle has been lobbying that basically there are too many Asians in the school and that they need to stop the merit-based admissions test to get into Thomas Jefferson. I mean, it's not an accident. The school is the best school in the country. It admits the best students and what they need to do is increase diversity. And indeed the process has become over the last couple of years of changing the admitting standards to the school, eliminating or reducing the emphasis put on merit-based and highlighting diversity. Now we'll see with the Supreme Court decision about Harvard whether this will stand that decision. It looks likely that the Supreme Court will decide that race-based admissions are against the law, against the Constitution, but we'll see. So good for the Virginia Attorney General, good for the Governor of Virginia. They are looking into this. They are unleashing the Office of Civil Rights on Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology for their failure to timely notify students of the commendation. By the way, this story was broken by the City Journal in New York City, so it's important to give credit that City Journal is a publication of the Manhattan Institute in Manhattan. But also they're going to look at the overall of the admissions policies. So, you know, there is a backlash. Yonkins was voted in, I think, to Governor of Virginia to a large extent over the horror of many, you know, relatively Democratic voters, people who typically vote Democratic, the horrors over the Democratic parties shift against merit and achievements and anti-Asian attitudes and anti-success attitudes. And I think a lot of people who typically vote Democratic voted for Yonkins because he was committed to schools being accountable to parents. What a crazy revolution that is. Whereas I think the Democratic Governor's attitude was parents shouldn't intervene in education, shouldn't butt in. It's none of their business. So maybe they'll fix this. Maybe they'll fix this. Yonkins has been mentioned as a potential candidate, a Republican candidate running in the primaries for, you know, for presidents. So, but this is a good cause. This is a great cause to champion. Champion merit, champion achievement, champion excellence, champion parent involvement in their kids' education. That's a great cause. Any one of those channels.

Dr. Sumon Pal talks with Jeff Frick at Zuora Subscribed 2017 in San Francisco, CA.

Are subscriptions helpful attendants to wearable HealthTech?
Thync Global Inc. U.S.A. sells a wearable stress-reducing device for $149. But to actually use it, customers must pay a subscription fee every month. Is it overkill or a helpful nudge to get people to take their vitamins?
“It’s about supporting and promoting this kind of continuous, regular use and routines,” said Dr. Sumon Pal (pictured), co-founder and chief scientific officer at Thync Global.
About five years ago, the company began manufacturing the devices, Pal said in an interview at the recent Zuora Subscribed event in San Francisco, California. The Thync wearable device reduces stress and improves sleep by topically stimulating nerves connected to the brain stem, Pal told Jeff Frick (@JeffFrick), co-host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile live streaming studio. (* Disclosure below.)
“We’ve done three published studies, and we’ve tested thousands of subjects,” Pal said. A 10- or 15-minute session after a rough day can produce a calming effect, he stated. But overall well-being results from regular — not once-in-a-while — stress maintenance, he added.
Thync Global takes care of updates to the software application and replacement of the device’s proprietary pads. This keeps the device ready-to-use at any time, encouraging customers to keep up a regular routine.
Subscription feedback loop
Thync Global is not simply taking it upon itself to babysit customers. The device’s stimulation patterns are based on continually changing algorithms and programs, Pal explained. The subscription service helps pay for the technology updates, and customers’ incoming data helps Thync Global improve the product.
“For the software service and for the pads, you pay either $29.99 a month or you pay $19.99 a month, depending on a longer commitment,” Pal stated.

Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frick here with theCUBE. We're at Downtown San Francisco at Zora Subscribed. About 2,000 people all focused on this subscription economy. And we were looking at some really cool products. We've had GEon, we're going to have Caterpillaron. But this is something new, you know, kind of these medical devices, Fitbit on steroids. I don't know how you describe it. Dr. Shuman Pal, he is the co-founder and chief scientific officer for Think. Welcome. Thank you. Thank you for having me. Absolutely. So give us a little bit of background on Think and then we'll jump into the device. Absolutely. So we are the first subscription service for wellness and better mental health. Okay. And the way it works is that there's Hardware, which is a neuromodulator. And the interface with your skin, which is some pads. And basically you put this on the back of your neck. There are software, there are programs that come along in the app. And what these are are algorithms that have been developed to stimulate certain nerves in the right way. Those nerves in turn connect with your brain stem and that is a center for stress, for sleep cycles, for mood in general. And over the last five years, we've developed a way to safely stimulate those nerves such that you can sleep better. Your mood is improved and... Okay, so let's back way. If you covered like a, you went the whole enchilada there. So you basically did some research, you guys figured out that the nerve stimulation can give better wellness. And is that just during sleeping hours, during waking hours, all the above kind of? Yeah, so it's both. I mean, a session lasts about 10 to 15 minutes. In that time, what's happening is that it's dampening the stress response in your body. So if you do this on a daily basis or you do this in the evenings when you come home from work, you are kind of detaching from that stress that's built up during the day. Without drinking a glass of wine or a bottle of beer. Absolutely, without really any toxicity, without any side effects, without any addiction, without any of the issues that come along with pills and substance. All those other things for, okay. So then you put this thing on, so you put it on like right after you get home from work or you go to sleep to make a difference. Or if you just had a, you know, a bad meeting, you know, you had a rough morning, you know, if there's kind of an acute occasion where you're anxious or highly stressed and you can use it then too. Okay, so it's kind of yoga in a box if I would be so presumptuous. Without any effort, right. And no damage to the knees. Right, right. All right, super. So a little bit in terms of the history of the company. So you said this was version two that you just came out with? Yeah, we've been developing the product, the technology in general for about five years. We've done three published studies. We've tested thousands of subjects. The first product has over two million minutes of use without any adverse side effects. Or, you know, we know that it's a really safe and powerful method to help people. Okay. And what is the retail for? So the hardware costs $149. Okay. And then there's a subscription. And the subscription is because there's a consumable involved, which are these pads, which are actually a proprietary formulation so that this is absolutely painless, absolutely comfortable. And we have algorithms, so you're actually streaming these programs. And those programs are highly complex, changing over time and constantly being updated. So for the software service and for the pads, you pay either $29.99 a month or you pay $19.99 a month depending on a longer commitment. Okay. And when you decided to go with the subscription pricing versus just selling it and then if I need more pads, I order a 12 pack of pads or whatever. You know, what were some of the things you thought about and then what are some of the outcomes that you have found, both kind of expected and unexpected in having a subscription relationship with your customers? Yeah, it's a great question. So one of the things that's really important about, so stress leads to a huge number of health issues, everything from cardiovascular issues to being linked with diabetes, to being linked with premature aging. And so it's important to chronically reduce your stress levels. And you want to have all the components around when you need it. It's not one of those things where you've had a terrible day, you're extremely anxious, you want everything to be there. You don't want to go and then order some pads online or order what you need online. So that's one aspect. And the second is that you want access to the programs that are being updated all the time. And what we find is that when people are on a subscription service, that kind of constant use, which is so critical for your health, mental health, general well-being is maintained in a better way than if you're kind of having to reorder these things or buy them. So really it's about supporting and promoting this kind of continuous regular use in routines. And I would presume that then you also get benefit too because you're getting all those data points that are feeding your algorithm so you can make changes to the application and change to the algorithm. That's right. And also we have a library about a thousand programs and it's also about we can for any customer switch out the programs that they have if it's not working for whatever reason. So to kind of rescue people, it's also important to get that data of what is happening month to month. So is a program the sequence of, I don't wanna say charges, but stimulations or whatever. Yeah, that's right. It's a different pattern, a different frequency and that creates like a program and you experiment to find out what's best for you. That's right, it's a lot like music. It's a stimulation pattern that's built in blocks and those blocks change over time. And that is one of the things that we figured out how to do that no one really had done before. All right, well, pretty exciting stuff. I'm looking forward to watching you guys grow and see how things continue to progress. Absolutely. Thank you very much. Thanks for stopping by theCUBE. All right, he's Dr. Shimano Powell. I'm Jeff Frick. You're watching theCUBE from Zora Subscribe. Thanks for watching.

Can you think of one way that alcohol affects the body? In this video, we're going to learn about alcohol's long-term and short-term effects. Alcohol belongs to the class of drugs known as depressants. Depressants slow down reaction times, decrease in ambitions, damage brain cells, relax users and make them more sociable. Which organ or organs in the body do you think this affects? If you set our brain and nervous system, you're right. Your brain has three main divisions that are all affected by alcohol. Firstly, alcohol affects the forebrain, which is responsible for motor control and decision making. Drinkers become clumsy, slow their speech, lose their inhibitions and ability to make sensible choices. Secondly, alcohol affects the midbrain. Causing drinkers to lose emotional control and increases the chances of them passing out. Thirdly, it affects the hindbrain, including the brainstem, which controls appetite, body temperature, heart rate and consciousness. People might look red after drinking alcohol because it causes vasodilation, increased blood flow to the skin. This shouldn't be confused with the alcohol flush reaction, which is very common in East Asia. This is a syndrome where the body is unable to process alcohol properly and a symptom of this is a very red, blotchy face and other body parts. Drinking alcohol can be dangerous, as people may do things they would not usually do, as they are unable to judge risks and make reasoned decisions. If people consume a large amount of alcohol, they may become unconscious and this can also be fatal, particularly if they vomit while asleep when they can choke on their own vomit. Drinking alcohol can have serious consequences for people around the drinker too. It can make people more violent and is linked with reports of domestic violence. Drinking alcohol before driving is dangerous because it impairs the speed of processing information and so increases reaction time. It also affects coordination, vision, concentration and judgement. The long term effects of drinking on the body can also be severe. Alcohol rubs the body of Vitamin B complex, a vital group of nutrients, deficiency of which can cause skin damage, diarrhea and depression. The liver removes alcohol from the bloodstream. It has enzymes that break down alcohol but the products of the reactions involved are toxic. They damage the liver and over time this leads to cirrhosis. It can also cause hepatitis and liver cancer. Stomac ulcers can be caused as alcohol irritates the stomach lining. Heavy drinking can cause heavy and irregular periods in women and also affect fertility in both sexes. Drinking alcohol during pregnancy can have consequences for the fetus. Drinking alcohol, especially in the first three months of pregnancy, increases the risk of miscarriage, premature birth and low birth weight. Drinking heavily throughout pregnancy can cause the baby to develop a serious condition called fetal alcohol syndrome. People with fetal alcohol syndrome have poor growth, facial abnormalities, learning and behavioural problems. Alcoholism is a disorder where people cannot control the amount of alcohol they drink. They are addicted to alcohol. They have a very strong urge to consume it and without help and support these people may suffer for the long term problems mentioned before. So now you know the long term and short term effects of drinking alcohol, both for the drinker and the individuals around them.

Guitar players out there probably noticed, but it's so cold out here. I have to turn it off in case you don't know. The office isn't attached to the house so I have a window unit for the air and I have a little space heater, hang on, I have one of these new hickeys for the heat and it just doesn't, it doesn't do well in this little office, anyways, yeah it's cold. So I hope you like the song, I'm going to try and get it recorded, I'm going to try and get all my stuff recorded and then put them up on the channel just for free you guys to listen to because I'll get paid in ad revenue.

This study investigated the effects of two xenobiotics, quaternium-15, a preservative used in personal care products, and thiocliprid, a neonicotinoid pesticide, on the hematological profile and erythrocyte osmotic fragility, EOF, of equine and bovine blood samples. Exposure to these xenobiotics caused decreases in red blood cell count, white blood cell count, hematocrit, hemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, and platelet count, as well as increases in EOF. These findings suggest that exposure to these xenobiotics may cause damage to the blood cells of horses and cows, potentially leading to health problems.

Welcome to Effector from the Electronic Frontier Foundation. This is the audio edition of EFF's email newsletter geared towards keeping you on the bleeding edge of your digital rights. This is Effector Volume 35, Issue 14, titled, Digital Rights in Times of War. This issue was published in November 2023 and I'm your host, Membership Advocate, Christian Romero. Let's start with our top feature. Internet access shouldn't be a bargaining chip in geopolitical battles. We at EFF are horrified by the events transpiring in the Middle East, Hamas's deadly attack on southern Israel, and Israel's ongoing retributive military attack on Sejaun Gaza. While we are not experts in military strategy or international diplomacy, we do have expertise with how human rights and civil liberties should be protected on the internet, even in times of conflict and war. Next up, social media platforms must do better when handling misinformation, especially during moments of conflict. In moments of political tension and social conflict, people have turned to social media to share information, speak truth to power, and report uncensored information from their communities. There are steps that social media platforms can take to increase the likelihood that their sites or places where reliable information is available, particularly during moments of conflict. And now, let's go through some EFF updates. First up, the red flag machine, how GoGuardian invades student privacy. GoGuardian is a student monitoring tool that watches over 27 million students across 10,000 schools. But what it does exactly, and how well it works, isn't easy for students to know. To learn more about its functionality, accuracy, and impact on students, we filed dozens of public records requests and analyzed tens of thousands of results from the software. Using data from multiple schools in both red and blue states, what we uncovered was that, by design, GoGuardian is a red flag machine. Its false positives heavily outweigh its ability to accurately determine whether the content of a site is harmful. This results in tens of thousands of students being flagged for viewing content that is not only benign, but often educational or informative. Next up, Victory, California Department of Justice declares out-of-state sharing of license plate data unlawful. California Attorney General Rob Bonta has issued a legal interpretation and guidance for law enforcement agencies around the state that confirms what privacy advocates have been saying for years. It is against the law for police to share data collected from license plate readers without of state or federal agencies. This is an important victory for immigrants, abortion seekers, protesters, and everyone who drives a car. As our movements expose intimate details about where we've been and what we've been doing. Next up, young people may be the biggest target for online censorship and surveillance and the strongest weapon against them. Young people are targeted by schools, governments, and sometimes parents who either don't understand or won't admit the value offered by online spaces and technology in general. No matter your age, EFF wants you to fight back. Here's a toolbox to get you started. Next up, EFF to Copyright Office. Copyright is indeed a hammer, but don't be too hasty to nail generative AI. Generative AI has sparked a great deal of hype, fear, and speculation. Courts are just beginning to analyze how traditional copyright laws apply to the creation and use of these technologies. Into this breach has stepped the United States Copyright Office, with a call for comments on the interplay between copyright law and generative AI. As copyright law carries such draconian penalties and grants the power to swiftly take speech offline without judicial review, it is particularly important not to hastily expand its reach. Next up, access to law should be fully open. Tell Congress not to be fooled by the Pro Codes Act. Having lost in court, standards development organizations are now looking to Congress to shore up their copyright claims via the Pro Codes Act, a deceptive power grab that will help giant industry associations ration access to huge swaths of U.S. law. Tell Congress not to fall for it. And for our last update, what is a passkey? A new login technique is becoming available in 2023. The passkey. The passkey promises to solve phishing and prevent password reuse. But lots of smart security-oriented folks are confused about what exactly a passkey is. There's a good reason for that. A passkey is in some sense one of two or three different things depending on how it's stored. Now it's time to go through some announcements. First up, we want you, U.S. federal employees, to stand for digital freedoms. U.S. federal employees and retirees can support the digital freedom movement through the Combined Federal Campaign, the largest and most successful annual charity campaign for U.S. federal employees and retirees. Last year, 175 members of the CFC community raised over $34,000 for EFF's lawyers, activists and technologists fighting for digital freedoms online. But in a year with many threats popping up to our rights online, we need your support now more than ever. Next up, we have a new organizational member. Welcome and thank you to AtSign, an EFF organizational member supporting our fight for digital security. Next, TOR University Challenge. EFF is conducting the TOR University Challenge, a campaign urging higher education institutions to support free, anonymous speech by running a TOR network relay. Universities answering this call to defend private access to an uncensored web will receive prizes while helping millions of people around the world and providing students and faculty a vital learning experience. Tell your alma mater to join the network today. And for our last announcement, speaking freely is back. EFF's series of interviews with free speech thought leaders has returned. David Green interviewed Nadine Strassan, a constitutional law professor at New York Law School, a senior fellow with FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, and was the president of the American Civil Liberties Union from 1991 through 2008. And don't miss David's interview with Gracia Masias. Now, let's go through a job opening. EFF Attorney, Intellectual Property. EFF seeks a litigator who is excited about fostering digital creativity, justice, and innovation to join our legal team. Candidates must have some experience with patent litigation, plus experience with copyright issues. EFF will review applications on a rolling basis until the position is filled, but no later than November 22, 2023. And finally, let's go through some mini-links. This first one comes from Vox. Why some Palestinians believe social media companies are suppressing their posts. EFF's Jillian C. York speaks about the mechanics and politics of shadow banning, which some say is skewing social media information about the Israel Hamas War. Next up, from Your Active, UN Cybercrime Treaty, a menace in the making. Governments met again in mid-October in Vienna to negotiate a global treaty on cybercrime, but instead of fostering cooperation in cybercrime, the treaty may end up facilitating cross-border repression and make it more difficult to investigate actual cybercrimes, writes EFF's Catita Rodriguez and Human Rights Watch's Debrora Brown. Next up, from Southern California News Group, Editorial, stop sending licensed data out of state. Great editorial from the Orange County Register, Los Angeles Daily News, and their affiliated publications. Well, this reminder likely would never have happened without the dedicated work of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which in May sent out a reminder of pervasive law breaking by the supposed law enforcers. 71 California police agencies in 22 counties must immediately stop sharing automated license plate reader data with law enforcement agencies in other states because it violates California law and could enable prosecution of abortion seekers and providers elsewhere. The EFF was joined by state chapters of the ACLU in its effort, end quote. Next, from Dweeb Decoded Podcast, Protecting Digital Freedom with Ross Schulman. EFF's Ross Schulman joined former EFFer Danny O'Brien to discuss the complexities and challenges of advocating for adoption of the decentralized web. Last up, from Gray Television Washington News Bureau, is it a First Amendment violation for a politician to block you on social media? Scotis to the side. Public officials' social media accounts must remain open to critics, EFF's David Green says. Social media is taking the place of people writing letters or making phone calls to their public officials. And that's it. Thanks for listening. If you like what you're hearing, be sure to sign up for the email version of Effector, which includes links to in-depth coverage of these stories and more.

Evan, thank you so much and welcome to every one of you out there in this splendid scene of hope spread across the South Lawn of the White House. I want to salute the members of the United States Congress, the House, and the Senate who are with us today, active participants in making this day come true. This is indeed an incredible day, especially for the thousands of people across the nation who have given so much of their time, their vision, and their courage to see this act become a reality. You know, I started trying to put together a list of all the people who should be mentioned today, that when the list started looking a little longer than the Senate testimony for the bill, I decided I better give up or that we'd never get out of here before sunset. So even though so many deserve credit, I will single out but a tiny handful, and I take those who have guided me personally over the years. Of course, my friends Evan Kemp and Justin Dart up here on the platform with me, and of course I hope you'll forgive me for also saying a special word of thanks to two who from the White House, but again, this is personal, so I don't want to offend those omitted, two from the White House, Boyden Gray and Bill Roper, who labored long and hard, and I want to thank Sandy Perino, of course, for her leadership. And again, it's very risky with all these members of Congress here who work so hard, but I can say on a very personal basis, Bob Dole has inspired me. This is an immensely important day, a day that belongs to all of you. And everywhere I look, I see people who have dedicated themselves to making sure that this day would come to pass. My friends from Congress, as I say, who work so diligently with the best interest of all, at heart, Democrats and Republicans, members of this administration, and I'm pleased to see so many top officials and members of my cabinet here today who brought their caring and expertise to this fight, and then the organizations, so many dedicated organizations for people with disabilities who gave their time and their strength. And perhaps most of all, everyone out there and others across the breadth of this nation are 43 million Americans with disabilities. You have made this happen. All of you have made this happen. And to all of you, I just want to say your triumph is that your bill will now be law, and that this day belongs to you. And on behalf of our nation, thank you very, very much. Three weeks ago, we celebrated our nation's Independence Day, and today we're here to rejoice in and celebrate another Independence Day, one that is long overdue, and with today's signing of the Landmark Americans for Disabilities Act, every man, woman and child with a disability can now pass through once-closed doors into a bright new era of equality, independence and freedom. And as I look around at all these joyous faces, I remember clearly how many years of dedicated commitment have gone into making this historic new Civil Rights Act a reality. It's been the work of a true coalition. A strong and inspiring coalition of people who have shared both a dream and a passionate determination to make that dream come true. And it's been a coalition in the finest spirit, joining of Democrats and Republicans, of the legislative and the executive branches of federal and state agencies, of public officials and private citizens, of people with disabilities and without. This historic act is the world's first comprehensive declaration of equality for people with disabilities. The first, and its passage has made the United States the international leader on this human rights issue. And already, leaders of several other countries, including Sweden, Japan, the Soviet Union and all 12 members of the EEC have announced that they hope to enact now similar legislation. Our success with this act proves that we are keeping faith with the spirit of our courageous forefathers who wrote in the Declaration of Independence. We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. And these words have been our guide for more than two centuries as we've labored to form our more perfect union. But tragically, for too many Americans, the blessings of liberty have been limited or even denied. And the Civil Rights Act of 64 took a bold step towards writing that wrong, but the stark fact remained that people with disabilities were still victims of segregation and discrimination. And this was intolerable. And today's legislation brings us closer to that day when no Americans will ever again be deprived of their basic guarantee of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This act is powerful in its simplicity. It will ensure that people with disabilities are given the basic guarantees for which they have worked so long and so hard. Independence, freedom of choice, control of their lives, the opportunity to blend fully and equally into the rich mosaic of the American mainstream. And legally, it will provide our disabled community with a powerful expansion of protections and then basic civil rights. It will guarantee fair and just access to the fruits of American life, which we all must be able to enjoy. And then specifically, first, the ADA ensures that employers covered by the act cannot discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities. The ADA ensures access to public accommodations, such as restaurants, hotels, shopping centers, and offices. And third, the ADA ensures expanded access to transportation services. Fourth, the ADA ensures equivalent telephone services for people with speech or hearing impediments. And these provisions mean so much to so many. To one brave girl in particular, they will mean the world, Lisa Carl, a young Washington state woman with cerebral palsy, who I'm told is with us today, and now will always be admitted to her hometown theater. Lisa, you might not have been welcome at your theater, but I'll tell you, welcome to the White House. We're glad you're here. The ADA is a dramatic renewal, not only for those with disabilities, but for all of us, because along with the precious privilege of being an American comes a sacred duty to ensure that every other American's rights are also guaranteed. And together, we must remove the physical barriers we have created, and the social barriers that we've accepted. For ours will never be a truly prosperous nation until all within it prosper. And for inspiration, we need look no further than our own neighbors with us in that wonderful crowd out there, our people representing 18 of the daily points of light that I've named for their extraordinary involvement with the disabled community. We applaud you and your shining example, and thank you for your leadership for all that are here today. Now let me just tell you a wonderful story, a story about children already working in the spirit of the ADA, a story that really touched me. Across the nation, some 10,000 youngsters with disabilities are part of Little League's Challenger Division, and their teams play just like others, but, and this is the most remarkable part, as they play at their sides or volunteer buddies from conventional Little League teams, and all of these players work together and they team up to wheel around the bases and to field grounders together, and most of all just to play and become friends. We must let these children be our guides and inspiration. And I also wanna say a special word to our friends in the business community. You have in your hands the key to the success of this act, for you can unlock a splendid resource of untapped human potential, that when freed will enrich us all. I know there have been concerns that the ADA may be vague or costly or may lead endlessly to litigation, but I wanna reassure you right now that my administration and the United States Congress have carefully crafted this act. We've all been determined to ensure that it gives flexibility, particularly in terms of the timetable of implementation, and we've been committed to containing the cost that may be concurred. This act does something important for American business though, and remember this. Youth call for new sources of workers while many of our fellow citizens with disabilities are unemployed, they want to work and they can work, and this is a tremendous pool of people. And remember this is a tremendous pool of people who will bring to jobs diversity, loyalty, proven low turnover rate, and only one request, the chance to prove themselves. And when you add together federal, state, local, and private funds, it costs almost $200 billion annually to support Americans with disabilities, in effect, to keep them dependent. Well, when given the opportunity to be independent, they will move proudly into the economic mainstream of American life, and that's what this legislation is all about. Our problems are large, but our unified heart is larger. Our challenges are great, but our will is greater. And in our America, the most generous, optimistic nation on the face of the earth, we must not and will not rest until every man and woman with a dream has the means to achieve it. And today, America welcomes into the mainstream of life all of our fellow citizens with disabilities. We embrace you for your abilities and for your disabilities, for our similarities, and indeed for our differences, for your past courage, and your future dreams. And last year, we celebrated a victory of international freedom. Even the strongest person couldn't scale the Berlin Wall to gain the elusive promise of independence that lay just beyond. And so together we rejoiced when that barrier fell. And now I sign legislation which takes a sledgehammer to another wall, one which has, one which has for too many generations, separated Americans with disabilities from the freedom they could glimpse, but not grasp. And once again, we rejoice as this barrier falls proclaiming together, we will not accept, we will not excuse, we will not tolerate discrimination in America. And with again, great thanks to the members of the United States Senate, leaders of whom are here today, and those who work so tirelessly for this legislation on both sides of the aisle, and to those members of the House of Representatives with us here today, Democrats and Republicans as well, I salute you. And on your behalf, as well as the behalf of this entire country, I now lift my pen to sign this Americans with Disability Act and say, let the shameful wall of exclusion finally come tumbling down. God bless you all. Thank you.

We are discussing the role of culture in international human resource management and in this topic, we are going to introduce you to the concept of culture as it has evolved in the management literature. So we are going to talk about the history of management thought on culture or the concept of culture in organizations. Earlier in the early school of management thought, which is the classical management thought, in that the importance of environment of an organization, it was not considered to be an important aspect. Early management theorists, they tended to ignore the environment and suggested that there has to be a universal one-best way. So the early management thought that was introduced when in the 1920s, Frederick Taylor introduced the principles of scientific management. In that, Frederick Taylor, you must have read in the subject of management thought that principles of scientific management were based on doing things in the one-best way and that was based on time and motion studies. And that was basically on physical work that when you do labor on any task, then the best way to do that task is the maximum efficient, less time consuming, less effort consuming way. What is that? And you understand it scientifically and then you train the employees that you have to attempt that physical action in this way. All right, so Frederick Taylor's principles of scientific management, father of management thought and he introduced the idea of management in organizations and his idea of management was based on this scientific management principle, which was based on universal laws, that you take it in any environment, you take the laborer in any environment, you take the organization in any environment, in the same way you have to work, which is the one-best way to do that. That was basically the crux of the principle of scientific management. Then the classical school of thought it included Max Weber's concept of bureaucracy that you must have read in the literature of management, that the principles of bureaucracy, rational thought, impersonal environment, selection on the basis of merit and all that. That was also based on the concept that there could be a universal way to organize the organizations and the principle that Max Weber suggested was the principles of bureaucracy based on the rational thought. So that also considered that organizations, they have to be managed in a one particular best way. Then another example of doing things in a very standardized way, regardless of the environment, was actually epitomized in Henry Ford's assembly line. And assembly line, you have seen that until now, in the organizations, in the industry, it is being employed to make production efficient and effective. And in an assembly line, you have seen that people manage it like machines. One person who has been given the task of doing it on the assembly line, he has to work in the same way and he has to do the same work repetitively. So this assembly line, the assembly line is a mechanical way in which your human resource is also mechanically involved in that process. So this classical school of thought in which scientific management was promoted in one best way, this basically ignored the environment and culture. So that was the early history of management thought. Then in the 1950s and 1960s, many students of management, they started to challenge the universalistic view and they started to consider human relations on on humanistic grounds. So, but the human relations movement was also said that you have to design one best way and implement it in one best way. And there is one best way to manage human beings as well. But they pointed out and emphasized that there are human needs and abilities. And the concept of human being rather than machine was introduced in this human relations movement in the 1950s and 60s. Then concurrently, there was emergence of the contingency theory. This was basically it evolved from the fact that the American organizations, they had to compete with foreign with foreign competition and they had to adapt to that foreign competition. So the environment was changing and American organizations, they were also going global and moving into other markets. And from that, from those episodes, it was felt that one best way is not possible. So probably we need to understand that what are the factors which will determine that one particular best way. So that it actually crystallized into the concept of organization fit. Now, what was organization fit? Fit was that the organization has to fit with the external factors and what are the external factors? The external factors are the environmental demands. Now, the environmental demands, they are, as you very well know, that they are based on the social environment, the cultural environment, the economic environment, the political environment. So all these environmental factors, they determine that what kind of organization and organizational structure needs to be implemented. So the contingency theory that brought into the management literature, the importance of the environment, and that was then later on translated into researchers advocating the moderating influences of national culture on the organizations. So that is how the discussion of culture and then national culture that entered into effective management of organizations. First, it was considered that there is one best way. Then it was considered that human beings are there and they can be managed in one best way. Then the contingency theory which talked about organization environment fit. And then when we talked about environment, that meant that we need to take into account the cultural context of the organization and that led us to the discussion of national culture in the management literature. And as it appeared in the management literature, it simultaneously also appeared in the human resource management literature. So that was a basic introduction of how culture has evolved as an important concept in management literature.

LORDSTOWN MOTORS LEX | SNAPSHOT SWOT ANALYSIS | #MXUX #RIDE $RIDE
|
Old business school S.W.O.T. model applied to Lordstown Motors (LEX) over the last two weeks or so. There are opportunities - a fleet market that needs a light duty BEV pick up truck badly - exactly what the firm's Endurance BEV was built for. The other side of the coin - as always with a start up capital to make it all happen. Let me know what you think in the comments please - I would love to know what you think - good luck in the market MXUX

Hi, this is MXUX. I just want to go through a SWAT analysis. I think this is a good time to do this for Lordstown Motors. I'm going to try to be direct and brief here. Let's see if we can go through this. The strengths right now of Lordstown Motors, or I've got it calling it here LEX, there's a commercial BEV certified and a homologated delivered to customers, has production cost advantages. That is the battery electric vehicle, the endurance. There is a BEV pickup truck, which is fleet-centered, which is in demand. That is the main strength of Lordstown Motors right now. They have a new MIHBV program confirmed, but the details have not worked out yet. That's a second strength. A third strength is they are watching their cash and they have $200 million, I think, and don't quote me, I think it's $250 million or perhaps a bit more with the monies from Foxconn so far on the new MIH program deal. That may be $270 million. Their burn rate was high last quarter because they started production. It should be less, but the burn rate is going to be somewhere between $50 million and $90 million, something like that per quarter, I believe. That's where we are right there. The weaknesses. Those are the main strengths right now. Again, BEV for sale, new MIHBV fleet program is confirmed, that's a big deal, and they do have a positive cash balance. Weakness. Stock price. The stock has dropped below $1. It faces potential Nasdaq delisting, depending on how long that goes on. That is not good. The BEV recalls, there have been two of the endurance, and I would say that these are not, as recalls go, that big. I believe the lightning has had nine or is it 19? So this is fairly common. These are not, these are second and third tier supplier problems, even fourth tier supplier problems. Now, so we have the stock price, and I do believe there may be some stock manipulation going on here. I have another video on that, but it doesn't matter right now. It's facing potential delisting, and the last and the BEV recalls, which these may be resolved, there is a video out of an endurance driving around Detroit, which implies to me that all the recall problems have been resolved. Again, we have funding. There's capital requirements that need to be met. The MIH project needs to be approved, okay. Now, with the approval of the MIH project, and I don't have the exact details in front of me, but 100 million, of that 170 million, I believe 50 to 70 million have been paid already. The 100 million pending is provided. They can work out the details to be earmarked for the MIH program, which Lord Sound Motors is going to develop. And that is a weakness. It's not done yet. And the BEV, the endurance, needs an OEM partner to go into full production. And that is another weakness. So potential delisting, the recalls, this may not be an issue anymore, and the funding. The MIH project needs approval and OEM partnership. Now, the opportunities for Lord Sound Motors, unrequited fleet demand, there is just a black hole of demand for BEV fleet vehicles of which Lord Sound Motors is. And with the MIH project, program slash program will even be a bigger fleet BEV provider. These are the federal municipal, municipal, commercial retail, you name it, hurts. There is just no end to the demand for BEV fleet vehicles. It's one of three BEV pickup trucks in production right now. Rivian, their fleet vehicle is their van, which they have by contract have to devote all production of that to Amazon. So there's no competition there. Ford has the Lightning Pro, which is barely in production. No one's getting any. And that's not really competition. GM has a series of fleet vehicles. No one's making any kind of dent in the fleet market because they're making so much money selling high price BEVs. So you know, right time, right product. Asset late model, the model of Lord Sound Motors is limited capital requirements. They don't have to build the new plants that Rivian's building. They don't have to go through, you know, all the maintenance of maintaining a plant and keeping it going while they're not in production or doing changes and so forth. It's a very, it's a very good model. I think other companies are going to follow this model in the future. They have a hundred million dollars of funding earmark for the MIH program. So that's pending, provided they can get the CFIS approval and bang out the details on that. They need to set milestones and so forth. And this is something I've been thinking about, which hasn't been openly stated, but this is Lord Sound Motors will own, I believe, this MIH program, this fleet program, fleet BEV program based on the MIH platform. What they develop, because you see, this is my way of thinking on this. They're not paying, it's not payment for service. They're buying stock, which is transferring money to Lord Sound Motors. And the condition of that stock purchase is that that money is to be applied to a certain program. So to my mind, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, Lord Sound Motors is going to be the beneficiary of this program. And the MIH program is an open source program. So this is really a proof of concept. Although they've had some other MIH program in Singapore and so forth vehicles built the model. What is it? Anyway, they have done it before, but this is really the main proving ground for an MIH platform program. So multiple vehicles, and they said it's going to be fleet. It's going to address different fleet needs than the endurance does. So they're going to have the endurance and other fleet vehicles. So these are very, there's a lot of opportunities here. There's demand, there's product. The business model is efficient. So, you know, and this other, the new program is funded $100 million, supposedly time to market, cost to market is supposed to be reduced. That may be enough to get to a working model with the MIH program. We'll have to see. Now, let's get to the threats. The ride stock price has dropped below a dollar. This is not a positive development. I think there may be some manipulation here. They have alluded to that in one of their SEC filings, but it doesn't matter if it's a manipulator or not. It has fallen. It faces below a dollar for a certain amount of time. It faces delisting by NASDAQ. So they have to take actions to get the price up. They're facing a reverse split of, I don't know, three to one or 15 to one, which I am in favor of because really what Lord's Time Motors has to do right now is stay in the game. Ride also faces delusion because they're going to be issuing more, they're recommending issuing more shares, which I also support. As I say, all Ride has to do right now is stay in the game. That's all they have to do. And whatever they have to do that, in my opinion, that's what they should do. Now, Lord's Time Motors faces cash depletion without earnings or funding slash funding. So their revenues on the sale of the endurance, the endurance is not profitable right now because it is not ramped. So without earnings or funding, they're going to face cash depletion. So if you look at what's going on, I believe the production of the first 500 endurance is financed. I think that's baked in. I think the MIH program, at least $100 million of it is baked in. And so what we're looking at is operational cash burn. And again, I guess that could go between $50 million and $90 million. So you can do the math on that. So we have cash. So we've always had the, as a startup, pre-revenue startup cash issues, now there is a stock price issue. There is limited information coming from Lord's Time Motors. And this may be because both Foxconn and Lord's Time have to agree on the information. According to the agreement they entered into the sale of the plant, they have to agree to what information is released. And for whatever reason, we do not have a lot of information coming out of Lord's Time Motors. We have SEC filings, but I don't know if that's a bad thing or a good thing, but there is limited information. And the other, and that I believe is part of the stock price issue. Thirdly, the government is the government dragging its feet impending the CFIS approval. Because the CFIS approval is required for the stock program to go through, for the stock investment to go through, and so forth. So that's another issue. So, I mean, we could have government dragging it. If you put your tin foil hat on, you could say the stock price has been manipulated downwards. I have a video on this that I have, I'm putting together a possibility. Or there may be macro issues not related to Lord's Time that have driven down the stock price as well. There's also the recall, but as I said, in my opinion, the recall is not as bad as it appears to be at first glance. So anyway, that's where we sit with the threats. Let's move forward. I have action items here. Lord's Time needs to resume endurance production and sales, okay? Even if it's a limited number of trucks coming off the line, they need to, you know, run that up the flagpole and show everyone that the recall has been resolved and production is underway. And that they're being, that products are being delivered to customers. And that they can successfully handle a recall. That's number one. Number two, they have, in my opinion, I'm not advising you to buy, sell, or hold any stock. And right, of course, is a high risk investment. Please seek professional advice before investing in any stock. But number two here is they need to secure the stock price LEX does. They need to do, in my opinion, a reverse split if necessary. And as well, if they could generate a positive announcement on the vehicle, on the fleet program, any type of positive announcement on securing a partner, on, you know, Neovagi doing some type of deal, any of this is going to boost the stock price. So whatever they have to do to boost the stock price, that's, they need to do that. They need to finalize the NIH program. They need to finalize the terms. They need to get the CFIS approval to get that capital, get that program underway. And as I said, I believe Lord St. Moses is going to own that program once they've launched it. So a lot is hinging on the stock price. A lot of it is hinging on positive news, catalyst and CFIS approval. And lastly, they need to secure an OEM partner for mass production of the BEV, of the endurance. And I believe they've been working on this. I have another video pending. I did a preview of the earnings call and I said the issues that should have been approached and I went over that video again and I compared it to what was announced. And you know, one of the keys there is this OEM partner. I think there is a good chance that this could happen, especially in the market. I mean, all of these are like a blockchain. They're all linked together. But certainly if you took a look at the fleet market and you look at the BEV pickup truck market, I mean, to be able to get into a program, you've got to figure that, you know, to launch a BEV pickup truck is going to cost you $500 million, you know, $900 million, a billion dollars. And to get into the endurance for half that price, a third of that price, whatever it may be, I think it's a no-brainer. But these are the things that Lord Steinmutter has to do. So by way of summary, Lord Steinmutter is in a great position to take advantage of the storage shortage of fleet BEVs with the endurance and the MIH program that they are developing, which I believe they will launch. And again, cost to market and time to market are supposed to be cut by 50% with this program, which would mean, you know, they could have, Hightower said he could have a car out in two years if it's cut by 50%. That's one year. Next year, this time, this other fleet program could be underway. And there's a shortage of fleet BEVs. Finance and capital issues are the rub. Chairman of the board, Daniel Neovagi, has connections to Hertz, where he was a former bird board member. Hertz, of course, is one of the biggest fleet buyers in the country. And Hi Finance, you know, he's a former icon, I can I can guy. So he does have connections. So it would appear to be that the ball right now is in Neovagi's court. He appears to be critical at this point. And I have down here, as I said, in a, in a what's called podcast, they mentioned that Rivian in the past has spoken with Foxconn. So is Rivian a potential partner for the endurance? They want to introduce a low cost line of battery electric vehicles. So, you know, I think there's potential there, I don't know what the status on that is, that is speculation on my part. But that would be an example of an OEM partner. Foxconn is investing in the Lordstown BEV plant heavily. Biskar, Paris pending, Monarch tractors in production. They're building a battery plant in Wisconsin. By the way, next door to that battery plant, Microsoft is putting in a gigantic data center. Initially, Foxconn had said their data center was going to be in Wisconsin. I am wondering if Microsoft is going to be part of that speculation on my part. There are even, they have stated to the Taiwan press that there are even more investments underway. But those are unknown at this time. So, Foxconn is, you know, all in on BEVs. They're all in on Lordstown. There's Lordstown, the location, Lordstown, their hub for BEV manufacturing. They're pulling together a really strong infrastructure there. And remember, Foxconn operates the battery line for Lordstown Motors, which Lordstown Motors owns, and the hub motor manufacturing line for Lordstown Motors, which Lordstown Motors owns at the Lordstown facility. So, Foxconn is all in. Now, via stock ownership from Foxconn, the via the stock ownership, the de facto financial support, Fox is at an ownership limit, I believe once this deal is consummated. So, to go further would change the status. I believe with the SEC and with CIFAS and certainly with Fox's board. So, I think that at least this tranche of financial support ends with this agreement for this MIH program. Now, there are other ways of doing that, but I'm just saying that's where we are. So, Lordstown Motors is in the captain's chair right now. They need to originate development solutions to get into production and secure funding. Right. They have had creative solutions in the past. So, they do have a creative approach to finance and they have come up with solutions in the past on, you know, things that surprise people and certainly they are capable of doing that again. They need a catalyst as far as their development. So, obviously, as I said, the return of production and deliveries of endurance would be one. An OEM partner would be another and whatever creative solution they might want to come up with. But this is where we are. I believe with Lordstown Motors and there's a lot of strengths and a lot of opportunities and we're now at the point where you know we have to get into production again and find a solution to the OEM partner they're looking for, whatever shape that may take. Looking forward to the stockholders meeting coming up and I think to my mind the most interesting thing here is that Lordstown Motors will own that MIH program fleet vehicle program once they develop it. In my mind, so this is, I think this alone increases the value of the stock or the potential of the company. Certainly with the fleet demand that's out there, I think you know they're going to basically have two product lines, an MIH product line and their own product line, both fleet directed and pushed at a fleet market that's starving. They simply have to do these other tasks, produce a catalyst, work out a creative funding solution and get an OEM partner of sorts for production. Okay, this is MXUX. Thanks for watching.

Happy World Environment Day. So proud as UN Environment Goodwill Ambassador to be here and I am going to take the opportunity to moderate this conversation but of course it will be free flowing and I know that you have questions but I have questions too for Sadhguru and for Eric. Eric has spent the last week or more travelling through India, visiting different cities, interacting with people and his energy and enthusiasm is awe inspiring and it has been admitted publicly by many people in government that no other executive director has given this kind of love, attention and time to a movement like Eric Solham has so India put your hands together for Eric Solham. Sadhguru I have been a long admirer of yours and every person here is here because they love you and I think I could include myself in that. I am reminded of a very powerful quote that I repeat very often and I am going to share it with all of you here. It's by Babadhyam it says in the end we will love, protect, in the end we will protect only that what we love and we will love only that what we learn about and I think you have been instrumental in making so many of us learn to love nature and ourselves and help us understand that we as human beings are not separate from nature, we are not apart from nature but we are a part of nature and what we do to our environment we are in fact doing to ourselves our own health. So thank you for that Sadhguru, thank you so much. I want to start with a question which is one that is connected to Rally for Rivers. I'm very proud to have participated in that campaign. It was a movement that galvanized civil society like no other and it has seen a kind of participation that is unprecedented and I know that your concern and love for India's rivers is deep and I think the theme of wheat plastic pollution is so deeply connected with Rally for Rivers that you came forward as well to say that this is something we have to do. Can you share with us what in your experience is of course the greatest need for India's rivers and how you have connected the message of wheat pollution to Rally for Rivers? Namaskaram and welcome to your warm day. It's wonderful to have Eric and Dia here. Unfortunately we are still looking at a mega problem in small pieces but that's how it works in the world so we are focusing on one at a time but this is not a separate problem. These are all just one problem. Essentially this problem is about the way we live. Essentially that we as life have forgotten that we are life. We as life have forgotten that our life has something to do with every other life. Not just in the impact that we cause as existence, our life's existence is connected to everything around us and there is no such thing really as in and out because what is in me and what's outside of me because every day something is coming in, something is going out. People say nearly seven kilograms of intake and exchange is happening per day. So we've just lost contact with life, our own life and everything else that nourishes our life. This is the fundamental disaster which is manifesting in so many different ways in the world. In our country this land which was referred to as the land of seven rivers at one time because as we know both in this nation and everywhere else, most civilizations always thrived on river banks because water being the source of life. But today I am not a environmentalist in any sense but from my personal experience I have seen rivers depleting in an alarming way from how I have seen them thirty, forty years ago and how they are today is no more a small concern. It is a serious problem if we don't handle this in war footing. I am using the word war intentionally because every day the way we are living is a war. It's a war with everything. At least let's reverse the war towards our well-being. It has to be done like we have a war on our hands because the condition is… condition of the land, the soil and water in the country is alarming, very alarming, okay? With one point four billion people on your hands or one point three billion people on your hands, allowing soil and water to get depleted like this is we… we still kind of in God's hands, we have not taken the nation in our hands, that's what it means. So if we have to take charge of this, it's very important the rivers. Rivers are a measurable entity because water's depleting you can see it, but this depletion is happening in the air, this depletion is happening in every possible way. They may not all be as dramatic as water shortages, so we picked on water to start with. Now plastic has been the theme of United Nations and it is a very deep concern. It is a classic case of who we are right now, how irresponsible we are as human beings because out of many materials that we have developed on this planet, plastic is one of the most fantastic materials. I know a whole lot of people will get against me for this. I am saying this because a material that can be recycled thousands of times over and over again is a perfect material to make sure that what we use is in a cycle, that we don't have to continuously dig something new. We can use the same material for centuries if we handle it right. But we have handled it so irresponsibly, such a wonderful material has become poisonous, it has entered everything. They are saying all… a whole lot of microbes are carrying plastic in them. See if lot of plastic gets into you, you can do your morning yoga better, maybe you will be a little more flexible if that's what you're thinking, that's not how it works. So this has been of profound concern to me always, but to bring attention it took a certain amount of time. I am glad now the nation is sitting up and listening at least, it's time to act, it's not time to debate, it's time to act. And I have done so much work with people in the last thirty-six years and variety of issues, but though there are so many wonderful people who will immediately respond, I don't believe the larger population will correct things by themselves. They need the push of law, that's why for everything we are saying we need a policy because without the push of law the larger population will not move and if they take hundred years to change their ways that's not good enough. If it has to change quickly, law has to come into place, that is why we are looking at single use plastic band. Thank you so much Sadhguru, that was deeply insightful. I am going to turn now to Eric Solham to tell us why the United Nations environment program chose beat plastic pollution as the theme for this world environment day. Could you please let us know why? Good morning to everyone, can you hear me? Good morning, a couple of days back we had a beautiful state in the south, we were travelling and we were first watching a number of farmers were transforming their agriculture into nature-based farming, fantastic to see, beautiful trees, a fantastic landscape, hard working farmers, then all of a sudden we came to some open fields and full of plastic. In the most beautiful, spectacular, fantastic parts of India again and the number of plastic plastic bags, plastic pollution of all sorts. A couple of days later we went from Agra up here to Delhi, watching out of the windows again plastic upon plastic along the railway line. This is bad, this is as Sadhguru said when we went to Mahatma Gandhi's memorial, he said this is violence, this is violence against Mother Earth, my stop is I mean is visibly horrible do we want to see this rather than to see the incredible beauty of the Indian nature but it's also violence against our common human being because well two days back a whale was dying in Thailand, it had been eating 60 plastic bags, can you believe it in the stomach of the whale, it was 60 plastic bags, before it died it vomited plastic bags and then it died. Not just this way, we had a whale in Norway dying in similar circumstances and other whales in Spain, there was an elephant dying in Kerala, you see cows, you see camels, sea turtles, seabirds dying from eating plastic. So this is when we push this as you say, wonderful material out in nature, well we are killing our common creatures on planet Earth, all the animals. But at the end of the day it's violence against ourselves because do we really want to drink drinking water the source of life and in this drinking water there are small fragments of plastic and Indian non-government organization made a survey of the best drinking water on the planet, not the worst, the drinking water which is put into bottles coming from mountains from the Himalayas or from the old alps, I mean the drinking water we really believe is the best, but even in that drinking water nearly there was small fragments of plastic which we drink, get into our body and by the way if we eat fish from the oceans, this fish has been eating microbes, shellfish, small other creatures and then plastic get into the fish and then into our body, so I think there is no doubt we need to change, we need to change for the sake of Mother Earth, we need to change for the sake of the animal kingdom, but we need to change for the sake of ourselves. This is in the most simple and clear terms I hope, why we have started this global campaign, let's beat plastic pollution and I'm happy to say that we are so proud that the Indian government, Prime Minister Modi, but the government but of course many other political forces, it's not just Prime Minister Modi, it's the chief ministers of many states, even some of them against the Prime Minister, they are all picked up this cause because they believe in change and believing in making India clean, and finally remind yourselves that the greatest of all Indians, maybe the greatest of all human beings and for sure one of the greatest human beings who has ever walked on planet Earth, Mahatma Gandhi, he said it very rightly, he said cleanliness is godliness, and I think he said that because he thought it was not God's plan that we humans should pollute this Mother Earth, but God's plan that we should cater for Mother Earth, as we cater for our children, this is the most beautiful one planet we do have and we need to take good care of it. Thank you so much Eric. I just quickly add why I chose to become an advocate for beat plastic pollution, not just because I am a UN environmental ambassador, but it resonated so strongly with me personally as well, it's very you know plastic has become such a permeable part of our lives, I realize that we don't see plastic, you know, our morning starts with the plastic toothbrush and when I was traveling through, I did this show called Ganga the Soul of India and I had to travel from the source of the river all the way to sea and I travel through five states of India with the river and you know when you see the plastic waste in the most pristine parts of the country in pure nature, natural environment, where there is no human habitat, but plastics have reached there, it really hits you, you know, you realize that the source of the river was so pristine, so pure, so clean and somewhere along the way the moment human settlement emerges, you start seeing the pollution in the river and the plastics in the river and then I also noticed along my way that plastic waste was being incinerated, it was being burnt, plastics had reached places where electricity has not reached and I kept thinking there are no collection systems here, there's no management systems here, what is this going to do to the health of the people here and it got me really really worked up and passionate about trying to seek solutions and I want to quickly share for all of you who are wondering what can we do to beat plastic pollution, here's what I may be able to suggest to you because me and many others have been able to incorporate this into our lives and I hope that all of us can because then we will truly become a part of the beat plastic pollution movement. We at the United Nations Environment Program are encouraging and urging everyone to stop the use of single-use plastics which means refuse plastic bags, of course, Sadhguru your campaign expresses that very very profoundly, stop the use of plastic bags, carry plastic bags. If you use it, you use it like this, you understand what you're doing to the entire planet. I know, it's just terrible and I, it's suffocating and choking our waterways, our air, our soil and it's harming health, children, elders and just everyone and animals of course. So say no to plastic bags, carry your own cloth bag, it weighs lighter than a mobile phone. Say no to plastic straws before you order your drink, please tell the server not to give you a straw, we can easily sip our drinks, we don't need to, you know, it's so lazy now, Sadhguru having to suck on the straw. This is, you know, in India, in South India, in Telugu, we call it palchambu, what it means is for a cup, there will be a steel straw. This is only for babies. Once you've become by seven, eight years of age, you learn to drink from a cup directly. But once again, the entire so-called civilized world is back to drinking in straws. I was in Moscow, just now, today morning I came, even for water in a restaurant, they're putting a straw for water. So we have lost our ability to use our lips to latch onto the cup and drink water. I saw an amazing image, Sadhguru, yesterday of a young girl who posted an image for hashtag beat plastic pollution and she showed how she was drinking coconut water directly from the coconut. It was a very powerful image. What do you mean? We all drink like that only. We should be, but we don't. Most people drink it with a plastic straw. Okay, so the third item of plastics that we can easily refuse are plastic mugs and cups. We can carry our own mugs and cups and whenever the youngsters here and of course people who frequent coffee shops can carry their own mugs. The other item of single-use plastic, we can easily say no to, is packaged water, bottles of water. Now here, I am constantly told but it's so inconvenient. You know, when you're traveling, you're on the move, it's difficult, you need to rehydrate. How do we do it? Sadhguru, I met a lady yesterday, amazing, amazing young lady. Eric and I were blown by her, mind blown. She's 32 years old. She gave up single-use plastics at the age of 22. When she found out that India was hosting World Environment Day, she thought, what can I do to spread the message to encourage more people to stop the use of single-use plastics? So Rajeshwari Singh set a foot as a solo traveler from Vadodara all the way to Delhi and she did not carry packaged water. When I asked her, how did you rehydrate yourself? How did you hydrate yourself? You walk through highways and villages and towns and cities doing workshops meeting people in this heat, in the scorching heat alone with no support. She said, you know, India is an amazing country. Every 500 meters, you have matkas with water that good Samaritans place on the highways for people to hydrate themselves. And every village and town I visited, people were always happy to give me water. That's one thing that is the easiest thing to get. I travel with my metal bottle, Sadhguru. So that really helps. So no more lazy answers for replacing the packaged plastic bottle with metal bottles and carrying our own water to work and school and wherever it is we are going. The most, the one of the biggest hazards and the last item of single-use plastics, I'm sure all of us who discover how bad plastics are for the environment, especially the wasted plastic, we will discover that packaged food like, you know, that horrible things, styrofoam and then the cling wrap over four apples and two apples and two bananas. We can say no to that. There is absolutely no reason why we should be buying our vegetables and fruits packaged in plastic. And the other thing that we must absolutely learn to say no to is cutlery and spoons made in plastic. Would you like to add anything to that, Sadhguru? This crazy behavior of ours, of convenience that is destroying our environment and our health? It's, it's wonderful. Whoever this lady Rajeshwari, what singer? Rajeshwari Singh. Okay. It's wonderful that she took up this mission. But I want you, all of you to understand, there are many people who are from my generation, they did not give up plastic. They've never started off on plastic. It's, it's only in the last 15, 20 years that this has happened. We never really used plastic like that. And if it all, if a plastic cover, once in a way a plastic cover comes home, my mother would fold it and keep it for future use and this same cover will be using it for two, three years, a simple plastic cover. So this was very much there with us. We've lost it only in the last two decades. So it's not so difficult to just go back and live as we were living at that time. So I cannot say I gave up single use plastic, but we largely never used it. Here and there it comes to you today, almost everything that you buy in the market. But I am not somebody who'll buy bananas in a supermarket. I know where to buy bananas. So bananas don't come in a plastic bag, they come as a front. So these are all important, whatever you were saying, these are all nominal things that we must do to express our commitment. But the solution, because the problem is bigger, the solution also needs to be approached as such. For example, right now, nearly 40% of plastic is in packaging. This is the area that we need to address big time because this is one thing that can be easily avoided. It's possible to avoid this. Bottled water is about, I think eight to nine percent of the plastics used in the world, nearly half a trillion bottles every year we are manufacturing. I've been in conversation with some of the largest bottle, pet bottle manufacturers who are manufacturing over sixty, seventy percent of the world's pet bottles, it's applying to all the major water industry and also the soft drink industry. They are all willing to change right now. I think those changes must be pushed. We want the local governments to push, Indian government we will approach in so many different ways to do this. They themselves, the industry themselves have realized for their own survival, they have to do this. Right now, these companies have come in collaboration with a few other universities from Netherlands and also a few other marketing companies and trying to make pet a continuous recycling process. That is, you never have to replace it. The same bottles can be used and reused for almost forever. It's possible to do that. Changing lifestyles is important but we are talking about seven and a half billion people. Changing all their lifestyles is going to be a long-term plan and by the time you change one generation, the next generation has gotten up and doing something else. So by law, bringing that recycling must happen. For these things to happen, one important point is see there are many grades of plastic, it's not one grade. Some of them are completely not recyclable. They must be banned, absolutely. Among the recyclable plastics, there are so many varieties. In United States, they told me, we are approaching some major industry with these solutions right now. We've formed a powerful group of people there. For example, I'm just telling you a simple example because we were in US, we were talking about the Coke bottles. These bottles are easily recyclable but simply because of the paper label on it, you cannot recycle. If you recycle with the paper label, it gets downgraded, it won't be food grade, plastic. Or the plastic label. Or the plastic label. Generally it's a paper label. If it is of the same material label, then it would be easy to recycle. If it was plastic and same grade plastic, it would be easy to recycle. Now they have paper labels. There is a plastic wrap around it but it's actually a paper label. So now we are talking to companies who are capable of printing on the bottle. So we want to go to the businesses with solutions, not just protesting against them, not trying to destroy businesses because that's not going to work because the economic concerns of a business and the economic concerns of a nation are important. And above all, this has been the way unfortunately, this is what we changed with Rally for Rivers. Always it is economy versus ecology. I'm asking all of you who are here. Suppose there is a fight between ecology and economy, what do you think will win in your home, in your community, in your country? Economy of course. Because people are thinking economy is today's concern, ecology is tomorrow's concern. No, ecology is today's concern. If this has to happen, we have to find solutions which will go with the existing polluting businesses. It's very important. Those businesses which are the major factors of pollution, we have to transform them, making sure their businesses are not destroyed but transformed to a more ecologically sensitive way of operation. This has to be looked at on all levels. You can just tell a local vendor you can't use plastic. What is he supposed to use? We must go and tell him this is what you can use, what is alternate product and how he can use it and how it is more beneficial for him and the customer. These things have to be brought about rather than simply protesting against business and industry because long run that's not going to work, economy will win. So if ecology has to win, you have to marry ecology and economy. They have to get married. This is my effort. Eric, this is timely to ask you because Sadhguru has mentioned the umbilical link between ecology and economy and he's also mentioned, I think in his own way, circular economy. And I want you to elaborate what that means because we all know that ninety percent of bottles, packaged bottles, are not recycled, which means that new plastic is being used. Yeah, but in India it is recycled. Yes, but the percentage is low, Sadhguru. That's not because of ecological concerns, that is because of economic depravity. Every bottle, some little child picks up and makes some little money. Yes, of course, there's money in plastic. So that's what the circular economy is. Eric, will you please share what the circular economy means and how much money there can be in managing our waste better, our plastic waste better, because it's something that will encourage Sadhguru, many more people to take up the action to manage plastic better. Let me start by one other comment because Sadhguru is my man. For a very simple reason, he brings together the two necessary perspectives, the change of the individual and the change of society and economics and politics. I mean, when we change lifestyle, if you start avoiding one use plastic, throwing away the straws, not using plastic bags when you go to the supermarket, well, it's a small act, one individual acting. It's important because together we are changing lifestyle like that is also a very, very clear signal. It's a signal to political leaders and to business that we need to change. And if you influence your neighbors to do the same, even strongly signal to political leaders and business that we need to change. So changing your lifestyle, yes, it's important by itself, but it's also having an influence on the rest of the whole well understood. He changed his lifestyle, but not just because it's all, one individual can change the world, but it was a message to wider India as to how these together and indeed from political leaders and we need business to change. But one small example, the other day we wanted to have the plastic cutlery and then we started going to shops in Maharashtra, trying to build another state because everyone has this profound individual demanding these from political leaders. If you want to understand what recycling and this cell phone. The first cell phone, it was shown to the world in 2007 called Steve Jobs. The founder, absolutely everyone, now has a smartphone. Age of seven or eight now has a, having these smartphones we can get into. You just make a couple of, there is an issue. We will close it to be 10 billion, which is good. That can poison all the problems which is there There is not enough minerals on planet earth for us to buy every second year. Well, we need to go into a circular economy, which means that whatever is in the cell phone is used again. Because here is minerals from Congo, this component in one cell phone from, it may be put together in China because most cell phones, but the components we use them over and over again. So what is in my, is in your cell phone tomorrow and Sadgurus cell phone next year. That's true with our bodies also. Sorry? That's true with our bodies also. Yeah, exactly, exactly. And that's how we will just use to take this into the modern world. Of course you will still get a cell phone which is more technologically advanced with more feature just used by the materials which we reuse. And of course the cell with plastic. I mean, why do we use plastic materials which we cannot use again? Putting on as you say, paper labels which make it impossible to recycle it. If we bring in the plastic we produce, the problem with simple suggestion. And that we will find a comment. I attended a number of the beach cleanups in India. And one key bags for milk. Milk pouches, yes. Milk pouches, yeah. There's in a number of them. Half a liter, 50 centimeter, feeding their children but then throwing away these. Well, if you put a little one rupee on these pouches or these bags, you pay one rupee more when you buy it but you get the rupee back when you hand it in. There's no loss for all those people handing in. Only those who purchase and don't hand in will be punished. We'll get in nearly all. Because most people come and pick the bags and hand them in to get the money. Then you create a circular economy where the plastic is used but then reused. Thank you Eric, that was very insightful. I'm sure all of us have understood now what it means to have a circular economy. Sadguru, I'm looking at that clock and I'm feeling very sad. This is coming to an end, this wonderful conversation. Thank you for your time, Sadguru. Thank you for your time, Eric. This has been deeply insightful. I know that we could continue to speak for a longer time but let us all pledge to continue to engage together and find solutions to beat plastic pollution. Let's not allow this campaign to end with World Environment Day but continue it every day till we have truly beaten the menace that plastic waste is creating in our lives and to the health of our environment. And of course, if you want to go beyond that, let's find ways to reuse, recycle, upcycle and reduce our consumption of plastics. Thank you so much. Namaskaram. Thank you. Have a wonderful World Environment Day and to everybody watching all over the world, thank you for your unbelievable participation. We are proud to host World Environment Day in India and this is an even more proud moment for all of us to be seated here with Sadguru and all of you wonderful people here who have joined us. Thank you so much. This, you used the word upcycle and I think that is an important phenomena. A few young entrepreneurs, again coming from Maharashtra, in many ways Maharashtra means a great state, at least for ecological concerns, it is becoming a great state for sure because even for all of the rivers, the first immediate action on the ground has happened in Maharashtra and this upcycling of using plastic material to not to just recycle it to a downgraded material but to actually make it into a better product than what it originally was. This is beginning to happen, young entrepreneurs are taking it up and doing it, but still I insist that across the world, United Nations agencies, environment groups must work for stringent laws because awareness is fine, it's wonderful. People's participation is always moving, a woman drinking tender coconut is romantic but solutions are in transforming the businesses which are involved in this. Right now, nations, large nations have been sending all their plastic waste to other nations as if if you dump it in another part of the world, their job is done. So right now in 2018, January 2018, China has refused some 20 and all different types of plastic. China was literally recycling almost 60, 70 percent of the world's plastic and now this plastic which China refuses to take, United Nations should make sure it doesn't go to Africa or it doesn't go to Antarctica, somewhere else worse. So the rich nations, affluent nations must recycle their plastic, not dump it in another nation. This is very important, these steps must be taken. Awareness is great. I'm sure all of them will strive to bring this awareness to their life, their children, their children, their neighbors, their friends, I'm sure every one of them will do that but still large scale action by law is a must. Thank you very much Eric for being here for this event and if all of you can just hold up this thing for a moment. I know this is more plastic bag but people in this country, if something has to happen, you have to create an emotional movement. By policy this country doesn't really move, you have to create a very strong emotional moment just so that this big plastic is good but people must understand this is not a foreign problem. We are suffocating ourselves, this must be clearly understood. Thank you very much for being here. If you're willing after our guest leave, I will allow you to roast in the sun for some more time. If you're willing I'll come back. Respect it sir guru. And all the nature lovers, the humanity lovers who are here to witness this great occasion of celebrating this environment in a befitting manner, a call given by Sadguru for the humanity, we are all here. Eric Solomon is here, Skannan who is instrumental and I'm a disciple of Sadguru. I'm here not as a minister but I'm as a disciple of his over here. A blend of culture and environment ministries which I'm heading now. The pleasure of being with Sadguru at his ashram, philanthropic thought he has for the humanity. When the God created human beings, thinking that this is my best creature, he created animals, the reptiles, the plants, the trees and he gave this vision that you have to walk with the nature in a win-win situation. And when God made this human being his best creature, and when this human being went from his path to war, then God sent Sadguru. Go and show this man, Sadguru, the path that the nature is to walk together as a warrior. Our relationship with nature is like a flower and a flower, not to wander this nature. God was very clever. He created small grass to be eaten by rabbits. He created a one-foot grass to be eaten by goats and the sheeps. He created bigger grass to be eaten by animals and the larger grass to be eaten by the giraffes and the camels. And the trees were given to be for the birds. But he gave this immense power to the man, humankind, that he can do any damn thing. He can cut that grass which is to be eaten by the rabbit and he can do hawks too for our birds also. He did not give this power to the strongest animal, tiger also, that he can climb up the tree and he can do that. But man can do that, he can cut that tree also. And he did it. And that's where Sadguru gave that philanthropic call. I think he envisaged it. When he gave his philanthropic call, that when we have to walk with the reverse, which was our daily life, the whole country, the whole city, the whole village, and the whole world's humanity, all our humanity is free from the support of the rivers, and we have made those rivers our means to wash your sewage. Even the biggest thing to believe in is what can be done. The rivers that were in our daily life... The rivers that are Ganga Mai, and now I went to the Danube river in Hungary, have been used by the people of Vishu in that revenue river. This work cannot be done by a person, or a minister, or a Prime Minister. This work can be done by those people who support humanity and live their lives in this way. And for them today, Satguru is among us. Satguru has given a philanthropic call for today, No Plastics. But today, even a doctor of this plastic, you can understand the pain of this plastic carbon, how it enters the earth and the earth. You see, there used to be a crack in which small particles used to come out, the crush material used to be in it. When we used to use it for marriage, it used to stick to everything. And if it used to go into the earth, it used to be mixed, no one could separate it. We paid attention to it and banned it. But will we be able to fix the work of banning it? Will we be able to use the helmet of our traffic police? Will we be able to use the law to get rid of polythene? Will we be able to use the law to get rid of one-time use of plastics? Will we be able to use the law to get rid of polythene? When will this man wake up? Satguru is among us today. I thank him for his efforts. Satguru took one step forward for humanity. Across the cross, across the creeds. For humanity, the global mass leader. Today, for such matters as rivers and rivers, I thank Satguru for his efforts. And with all of you, I put myself in the hands of this foundation. May God give you the strength to become an ambassador of humanity. May you take our art and this company's branch further into the world. And I believe that your millions of people, becoming an ambassador and becoming a lover of the world, will send your message to the world. Your Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi is also moving forward in this matter. And I am happy to tell you that today, there is a meeting at 9 o'clock in the National Assembly, to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Mr. Gandhi. The Prime Minister, Mr. Satguru, has made a special contribution today to the 15th anniversary of Mr. Satguru. He will take the anniversary of Mr. Satguru. I thank him again for his efforts. Thank you very much. I would like to acknowledge the present government. I have… I'm a little technologically… Relentlessly for Rally for Rivers, I want to tell you that many major steps, policy steps have been taken to fulfill this promise of reviving India's rivers. Some… I mean, I can't go into all the details. One major thing is 84% of India's water was being consumed by agriculture. Now, this year, for this year's budget, 5,000 crores have been allotted for micro-irrigation, which can bring down water consumption by nearly 50% for agriculture. And for revival of Yamuna, 300 meters of plantation on both sides of the river, a few hundred crores have been allotted. And I'm sure our minister has a hand in all these things. And for the revival of Ganga, planting about 25 crore trees is on for this year. Just now, we've been called for a meeting on 7th of June with the Karnataka government that to plant 25 crore trees along Kaveri banks is on. We are part of that movement. And as a… as a part of setting up treatment plants, I think some six or seven thousand crores have been allotted just in the Ganga region that our minister, Sri Gadkari, has promised that in a year, at least 70 to 80% of the pollution will be gone. And one… I've been saying this, this is all it takes, just one or two years of action. We don't need to clean Ganga. If we don't let in the effluent, the sewage doesn't enter Ganga. If we take care of this, if we turn sewage treatment into a profitable business, it will be done in one season. She will clean herself. We don't need to go and clean her. So that is happening and he has promised within a year's time 70% it will be cleaner than what it was last year. And I think it's definitely going to happen. So we congratulate the government for taking these steps, far-reaching steps which are not election-winning steps. These are very far-reaching steps. We must congratulate and appreciate this. And every government in whatever states, all these governments need to take these steps. From those of you who come from different parts of the country, I want you to keep up this awareness and pressure on the local government so that they also take these steps and make this happen. Thank you very much. If all of you just… for three seconds, if you just put on the plastic cover, we'll take a photo shoot for you. We won't trouble the minister with it because he's a doctor. Promise you are wearing the mask to express that we will not make this little girl suffocate in future. We are going to create a better climate for her, she wants to. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Plastic. Oh, plastic, hey, yeah, plastic, hey, yeah

Hi, let's see the new features of Plasma 5.22. The first one is this one, I've done it, and it's adaptive transparency. That is, if you open up an application and then maximize it, look at the panel, you can see that it gets opaque, whereas if you demaximize it, it gets back to being transparent. If you look into the settings of the panel, you can see that you can actually choose whether you want your panel to be adaptive or always opaque if you don't like transparency, that's fine, or always transparent if you really love it. The next big feature, which I actually can't show is the menu search. It's only a Wayland, so not X11, but I've done it. This animation that shows to you that if you add the menu widget, there's a new item, which is called search, that allows us for you to actually search through the menu items, similarly to what we've been doing with the new PowerApp HUD, but also working on third-party apps like Inkscape. The next one is system settings. If you pop up system settings, you can see that there's a whole new welcome page that allows you to choose between a light and a dark theme, the animation speed, whether you want a different wallpaper or more print settings, and also since many users change this, whether you want a single click to open folders or select them, plus more behavior settings. It also includes links to the most used settings if you want to use them. And then finally, there's also a new look for the calendar. If you click on the time, you can see that this applet has been completely redesigned. Now you can switch more easily between days, months, and years, and also switch between past years and future years. And you can also see that on the left, you have events, and if you have different time zones, you will also have a header here showing time zones and a list of time zones. Finally, the last thing I wanted to show, which is the last big change from Plasma 5.21, is the new wallpaper. You've probably already seen it, but I think it's lovely. At first I was a bit undecided on whether I liked it or not, but at the end I think that all Plasma wallpapers are beautiful. And that was pretty much everything. There's much more. Obviously, these were only the very big changes. If you look into the Plasma announcement, this is just a draft. You can see all of the changes, even the smaller ones like sticky notes, cases, cards, and more stuff coming up. The system tray was also a bit polished and so on, notification, calendar, and of course we're still working on making QIN work nicely on Wayland. So please test out 5.22 and tell me what do you think about it. I think it's a great release and well, at this point I can't wait for Plasma 5.23 because I've already seen some cool stuff coming up.

Are you attending a FAM trip soon? Well this week's video is for you. We're talking about simple etiquette tips for when you're attending your next familiarization trip. Hey it's Leanne from conference source.net and Stephen and I have attended a number of FAMs over the years but it never fails to surprise me how many people still lack proper FAM etiquette when attending these graciously hosted events by destinations and hotels. Now let me be clear there is extreme value in attending a FAM. It really is the best way for you to touch, taste, see, and feel a destination so that you can sell that back to your organization who in turn then can sell it to your future delegates at your conferences. Ironically if you're watching this video you're likely not a FAM offender but here are a few things to keep in mind the next time you're out on a FAM trip. Number one never accept a FAM invitation to a destination that you have absolutely no intention of ever doing business with. This is the biggest one that I see all the time of people accepting FAM invitations for places so outside of their ideal client profile and their business profile they're never going to get there with a program and then it does become like a vacation versus a familiarization trip and that's really not fair to your hosts. Again you have likely never done this or else you wouldn't be watching this video but I bet you know of someone who may have in the past when you were on a FAM especially to those destinations that are high on vacation bucket lists like those in Mexico or the Bahamas or Hawaiian FAMs. Number two ensure that you have your organization's support. FAM trips are working trips so ensure that your organization understands that you are working while away from the office and you plan on bringing ROI back to the office. Number three don't commit to a FAM trip and then not show up. Again I have seen this where people just simply don't show because it wasn't on their dime there was no investment and they didn't have to attend. Please don't do that if you're going to commit treat it like a work commitment and make sure that you show up for your FAM. Number four when you're on the FAM be on time for all the functions take notes and ask questions. Again this is a learning opportunity so you need to keep some programs in mind or some future programs in mind and take some relevant notes that you can easily refer to when it's time to work on that program back in the office. Number five limit your alcohol intake and I know this is a hard one and it's hard even for me when they're whining and dining you with wine and mocktails and cocktails and all these kinds of things but drinking too much alcohol now clouds your opportunity to learn more about the destination or the hotel that you're at. So just limit your alcohol intake and be on your best professional behavior when on a FAM. Number six send thank yous now whether it's a handwritten note or an email or something of the like ensure that you thank your hosts afterwards it was a massive time investment and financial investment for them to host this FAM for you so make sure you acknowledge the hard work that went into it and finally share your knowledge you went for a reason this is a learning opportunity now that you have this bucket of information share it with your colleagues share it with your organization share it with other meeting planners that you might know in the community especially if you had a fantastic experience and you can encourage other meeting planners to experience it for their programs as well ensure that you do something with the information when you get back to the office. Those are my FAM etiquette tips I probably missed a few are there any ones that you want to add to the list please comment on this video below and share it with the community. Remember FAMs are an excellent use of your time if you use your time wisely only commit to one or two FAMs a year because again when you're out of office you're unable to work on the strategic things at hand in the office and if you're heading out on a FAM trip soon pop on over to conference source net and download our site visit notes worksheet in our resource library you may find that it's useful when walking through the spaces in the destination if you're interested in seeing a particular destination will you please let us know we see FAM invitations all the time and we want to make sure that they get in your hands as well if there's a particular destination that you have business that you want to send there let us know and we will point you in the right direction our conference direct FAMs also appear on our industry calendar that you can access by being a newsletter member hop on over to conference source net sign up for the newsletter and you'll get the calendar as well thanks for watching this week's video and we'll see you next time bye for now

I want to thank the British Heart Foundation for their briefing. Were there a few key messages that they want to emphasise today? The first is asking us what to do, what we can do to do with Adding to the push of asking for the date, and the second is asking us to give a date for each of the various messages that we have received. We will also ask the British Heart Foundation to create a specific date do, a what we can do to promote fundraising for the lives saving research they are having. I'll touch on that later on and the second is that the British Heart Foundation I'm asking the public to learn CPR with its new online tool revived. Now, for context, there are around and around 3'200 out-of hospital cardiac rare in Scotland each year. The survival rate is only just as one in 10. Performing CPR and using a Vibliocard more bleach ond mae'r chwanes i gymryd yn mynd i rai cwysig wedi cael ei ddweud.

Yr private air is a free online training course whon you can learn CPR, in just 15 minutes using a phone and a cushion. The tool gives feedback and CPR technique and will teach you the signs of the cardiac arrest. When you should call 999 and give you a step by step guide on how to use a defibrillator... I know that many of us have probably been in a first aid course and learned that over a period of time as well, but this is really simple and can be done at maen nhw i'w ddod o'r oeddech chi yn meddwl 1200 y pwynt yn ei anghyglwch, a wnaeth i ni weithio i rydyn nhw i'w weld yn lleiwn i siwisau cyrcratedd.

Yn unrhyw nesaf, 12,000 bydd yn oes gynonddigau llefwyr hynny, 750 bydd yn oes gynonddigau llefwyr hynny, gan y GPU, a 170 bydd o thymu eu gwyloeddion yw'r amser yn gyveg ynghyrchu'r drwy'i gyr inanethol? Yn 27% dd ganolwyddoedd, yn Ystlen i'r bobl, yn bobl ynghyrch, i 16% dd ganolwyddoedd. Lowry rhag minddau yw'r gwleithf funds cydfaloedd pethau cydloedd yn Ysgolten. BHF Scotland is currently funding research worth over £53 million across Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee, Stirling and St Andrews. That funding contributes an estimated £80.6 million in GVA to the Scottish economy and supports almost 1,900 jobs. Just last year I had the pleasure of visiting the Edinburgh research centre at the ERI, along with a few of the MSP colleagues. It was an incredible place to visit if you ever get a chance. Speak to BHF Scotland and I'm sure it will take you to the nearest centre. BHF Scotland is also working as part of the NCD Alliance to improve Scotland's health. In 2021, nearly 53,000 deaths in Scotland were caused by non-communicable diseases—NCDs—amounting to 83 per cent of all deaths. Estimates by the British Heart Foundation suggest that one in five of those deaths are directly related to alcohol, tobacco, overweight and obesity, and I know that the Scottish Government is working on all those issues at the moment. This morning, along with Gillian Mackay and Dr Sundash Gohani, I met the NCD Alliance Scotland. Along with three other colleagues, we were working monthly to discuss policy issues over a period of time. NCD Scotland is a coalition of 19 health organisations and charities campaigning for an action to reduce the ill health and death driven by health harming products such as alcohol, tobacco and unhealthy food and drinks. Ill health and disability caused by tobacco, alcohol and overweight and obesity is estimated to cost the Scottish economy between £5.6 billion and £9.3 billion each year. NCDs are estimated to cost NHS £1.6 billion every year. The disease burden for NCDs is set to increase 21.3 per cent by 2043. I can also thank the Chest Heart and Stroke Association for their briefing and they raise important issues. Chest heart and stroke Scotland is Scotland's largest charity supporting people living with chest heart and stroke conditions. Last year, they supported 13,000 people with conditions through their advice line, community support services and stroke nurses. They also have a hospital to home service there to support people living with heart conditions from the moment they leave the hospital. Again, I know that that is something that the Cabinet Secretary has raised on a more broader basis in terms of that. I just want to commend the work of Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland for its work. Can we have Mr Doris'e's mic? I would like to commend Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland for the work that they do, the community sports outreach work. They do that in my constituency, with walking football for a lot of people who are stroke survivors and have heart conditions. I have seen the transformative nature of it in the communities that I serve. I have to say to Mr Eustaf that it is present that both my knees are now gashed because of it, so that we may actually put a waiting list up elsewhere within the system. I was going to touch on that and one of the key things that they mentioned as well is that they are in about the facility 110 peer support groups, which are obviously involved and give emotional support connections and advice to more than 2,800 people, but they also talk about the groups that you mentioned there as well. They play a big part in the community. Coming back to the hospital and home service, I said that it is there to support people as soon as they leave hospital. That is incredibly important and that is the support that is there. They estimate that the hospital and home service could support an estimated to 38,000 people each year with Chest Heart and Stroke conditions if available on every health board. I mentioned about the facility and the peer support groups that are there in that regard. I also want to thank the stroke association for their briefing and risk factors for a stroke are similar to those with heart disease. I want to touch on atrial fibrillation that I talked about before and I am going to call it AF just for ease that I talked about earlier. AF is a heart condition that causes an irregular heartbeat and raises your risk of a serious stroke. Over 105,000 people in Scotland have been diagnosed with AF. It is estimated that there are around 35,000 people in Scotland who are living with undiagnosed AF. AF makes you five times more likely to have a stroke. If you are diagnosed with AF, you will have an individual stroke assessment to make sure that you get the right treatment and advice for yourself. Strokes due to AF tend to be more serious with more damage to the brain and worse long-term effects. If you have AF, you will have any treatment that you need to reduce your risk of a stroke. Estimated six strokes every day in Scotland are caused by AF. He is slowly and alone. Around 1,800 people are being diagnosed with AF. A recent poll guide out by the Stoke Association said that 60 per cent of people said that they had never checked themselves for AF. When testing themselves, 79 per cent said that they found their pulse straight away or within a few seconds. It is easy to do and everyone should be doing it. I want to close on a personal story. Two weeks past Monday, my mum had experienced numbness in her left arm in the hand over the weekend. She phoned her GP on the Monday and she was taken that day. The referdor to the stroke clinic on Wednesday they thought she had had many strokes. She was booked in for an operation to have a blockage on her neck the following Tuesday and the operation took place on Wednesday. She was back home on the Thursday. Diagnosed, referred, operation all within 10 days. We have a fantastic NHS that we should be proud of. Let's make sure that we talk about the fantastic work that goes on every single day. Thank you. Thank you very much, Mr MacLennan. We now move to the open debate. I'm going to call Jenny Minto to be followed by Craig Hoy around four minutes, Ms Minto. Thank you, Presiding Officer. I would like to congratulate my colleague and friend Paul MacLennan on securing this member's debate and associate myself with his praise for the British Heart Foundation and also NHS Heart Stroke Scotland. As Paul said, February is heart month. The heart is one of the most recognised symbols in the world. From Greek philosophers to iHeart, New York to video games, the heart represents our strongest emotions, both positive and negative, and needs. Love, fear, pain, health, lives. The heart is our body's power supply. Without it, nothing works. Electric pulses created by your heart supply energy to every organ in your body. If that power is switched off, if your heart stops, blood and oxygen no longer flow, you start to die. Everyone in this chamber, I am sure, will have experienced the loss of a family member or friend or colleague due to a cardiac arrest. Many of us too will know the relief of having a loved one survive. It is those experiences that draw us to try to make a difference to help more people survive. That is exactly what Mull and Iona community trusts have done by investing in defibrillators. They have secured funding, located defibrillators at strategic points on the islands and appointed volunteer guardians to check them monthly—37 of them. Research suggests that there should be one defibrillator per 1,000 people in rural areas. That would equate to three defibrillators on Mull, but Mull is five times bigger than Glasgow, where a defibrillator every 200 metres is suggested and has around 600,000 visitors a year. For out-of-hospital cardiac arrests and there are about 3,200 in Scotland every year, the survival rate is only 10 per cent. Starcly, every minute without CPR and defibrillation, reduces the chance of survival by 10 per cent. With statistics like those, you can understand why the Mull and Iona community has worked so hard to increase the number of defibs on their islands. To create such a network requires a lot of funding. People have raised money and businesses in Argyll and Bute have worked with community councils to enhance the network of defibrillators. For example, Scottish seafarms have installed accessible defibs at their facilities and when Crookins, Iconic Dam and Underground Power Station, played a starring role in the TV series Andor, Drax has provided funds to help to create a rural defib network. However, there is something very simple that could be done to boost the number of defibs across the country, ensuring that our rural areas and less affluent areas have access to them. That is simply removing VAT. I have twice written to the Chancellor of the Exchequer requesting that this modest proposal be considered. I very much appreciated the cross-party support in that request from a number of organisations including St John Ambulance and community councils across Scotland. I hope that Westminster takes note of the Irish Government's decision to remove the 23 per cent VAT levy from defibs on 1 January this year. The Irish Heart Foundation described that as a victory for common sense. I hope that the Chancellor can have a heart and do the same. I and others will not be giving up, it is just too important. However, in the meantime, as Paul has said, there are two things that BHF Scotland is asking us to do, ensuring that defibs in your area are all on the circuit, the national network of defibs, which has been created by BHF alongside the ambulance services for quick access to help save lives and, as Paul explained, to learn CPR with BHF's new free online tool, Reviver. This February, I urge everyone not just to think of hearts on Valentine's Day, but all month, in fact, all year. I found this haiku by American writer Eric Overby, which feels an appropriate way to conclude my contribution. My heart beats with you. Love runs red throughout my veins, making me alive. Thank you very much. Ms Mindo, just a gentle reminder to indeed repeat the comments from the Presiding Officer earlier about informality. We do need to use surname as well as first names in contributions. No, not at all. I think the minister may have led you astray in the previous debate, actually. Craig Hoy, to be followed by Karen Adam, around four minutes, Mr Hoy. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I thank Paul McLennan for securing this debate and congratulating him on this debate, which is both timely and very important. The figures in the motion highlight the devastating effect that heart disease can have on communities right across Scotland. The numbers are stark and they demonstrate the huge challenge that we face. It is important that we take note of the work of the British Heart Foundation over the past 60 years. It is vitally important that we thank them for their significant contribution. The BHF has been instrumental in countless life-saving discoveries. Its research has contributed to the first UK heart transplant, the development of pacemakers, the use of clot-busting drugs to treat heart attacks, and the roll-out of genetic testing for inherited heart conditions. The BHF is the largest independent funder of research and heart and circulatory diseases in Scotland, and it is currently funding over £50 million of research in Scotland—research that is entirely funded by public donations. Last year I had the pleasure of visiting the team at the BHF shop in North Berwick in East Lothian. I met BHF Scotland's policy and public affairs manager Jonathan Rodden, and the North Berwick store's assistant manager, Patricia Prentiss. I had to rush off before buying something, so I pledged today that I will go back and make a purchase with Patricia and her team. However, there was a queue for the minister to chide me on that. There, I heard that volunteers are the bedrock of the work that the BHF undertakes and the vital success that it has had with the funds that it raises. It was also a reminder of the very positive experience of volunteering, as well as helping good causes like the BHF. Volunteering is a great opportunity to meet new people, to gain new skills, and to help the environment by giving unwanted items a new lease of life. I would encourage people right across East Lothian across the south of Scotland to take up the opportunities that are available with the BHF to volunteer. I also want to raise another important issue, that of sudden cardiac death. Sadly, our Parliament has first-hand and recent experience of this. Last year, David Hill, a friend and a colleague to many of us, sadly passed away whilst representing this Parliament last year in Dublin. He died playing rugby against the Doyle and the Senate. He died playing a sport that he loved. What is particularly devastating about this condition is the way that it hits families like David's out of the blue with no warning. 80 per cent of those who die present with no symptoms before they do. I would like to take this opportunity to mention David's family. Since his death, they have raised thousands of pounds to support the charity Cardiac Risk in Young's Work through a music event in Dumfries a Day for David. There will soon be an annual rugby match between Holyrood and the Doyle, where teams will compete for the David Hill memorial quake alongside an opportunity throughout the day to raise money for cry. We need to do more on this issue here in Scotland, and I would hope that the minister will consider perhaps looking at how we might explore an issue in relation to this. Every year, 600 young people are dying due to sudden cardiac death. That is 600 families that are left mourning the loss of a loved one. That is why I would like to invite the minister to agree today to establish a national strategy for the prevention of young, sudden cardiac death. If he is not able to do that today, would he be willing to meet with me and cry to hear more about the subject? Not only do those deaths devastate all those connected to those who die, but we lose the potential that that young person has and would like to bring in to the world and to our society. All the skills that they had are lost, and all the good things that they would have contributed are left undone. That is a problem that we face as a society and that is one that we can fix if we put our minds to it. Before concluding, I would like to thank Paul MacLennan once again for securing today's debate. Thank you, Presiding Officer. I too congratulate Paul MacLennan for bringing forward this incredibly important member of business debate. This is something that is incredibly close to my heart to excuse the pun, but the reason being is my mother, my ma, Violet. She was an incredible woman. She took no prisoners in life and she was upfront, honest and authentic. She was also very funny and had quite a dark sense of humour and her wit was as sharp as her mind and she could wipe the floor with anybody in a quiz. She was a very politically active and aware woman who was an activist for Scottish independence and feminism way back in the 1960s. She loved rock music. I came across old penpal letters of hers in which she was adamant in stating that the rolling stones were far superior to the Beatles, maybe a debate for another day, but most of all her love for Elvis was what shone through and it is what we had in common and it was a connection that we adored together. That connection was lost almost 23 years ago when she died suddenly of a heart attack aged only 49, alone and at home. A doctor discovered her while doing her rounds as she had called them and said that she did not quite feel right. If she had called an ambulance or the symptoms had been escalated to emergency, perhaps she would still be now, but I can only speculate. I'll be 48 this year, Presiding Officer, nearly the same age and I wonder how far we have came in preventing this kind of devastating loss. I certainly don't want my fate or that of any other woman to be as abrupt and as sudden as my mother's. Up until recently, heart disease was the biggest killer of women in Scotland, only now being overtaken by dementia and I'm still surprised to see how many people don't know this utterly shocking fact. Why do we still assume that heart disease and heart attacks are a man's problem? The British Heart Foundation published a report called Bias and Biology, a very welcome move to understand the underlying issues that may answer that question. The report had five calls on it and I am delighted that the Scottish Government committed to include heart health as a priority in the women's health plan, launched in 2021, along with the five asks that were in the British Heart Foundation's report. Those are, 1. Improved awareness among the public and healthcare professionals of heart disease in women, 2. Improved data collection and linkage for heart disease, 3. A review of sign guidelines on heart disease to identify and address any relevant gaps relating to sex-specific issues, 4. Modernisation of cardiac rehabilitation to ensure that everyone can access personalised, responsive and flexible services suited to their needs, and 5. The appointment of a national women's heart champion to implement these changes. Those five calls fully actioned will save lives. It will ensure a future in which we no longer have to see families like mine deal with a devastating loss of somebody so young. Women must have their health taken seriously and that includes by themselves. Many of what we will be discussing here is preventable and that is the starkest wake-up call of all. I travelled in 2013 to Memphis to Elvis's Graceland and wearing my mother's ring. I squeezed my hand through some wooden bars to touch Elvis's furry chair in his jungle room. It was a sentimental moment to symbolise a connection that was not here anymore, a moment that I wished my mum could have shared with me. The reason why I personalised this speech is because I wanted it to highlight the human cost during this heart month and ask women to take their heart health seriously and put themselves as a priority. Women are talking to you, our hearts are often full of love and service for others, but it is also our vital organ. Please take care of it and demand that your health provider does too. I congratulate my colleague Paul McCleannan on securing this important debate. February is heart month and I thank the British Heart Foundation Scotland for the vital work that it does and my Cunningham North constituency and across Scotland investing over £50 million in over 100 Scottish research projects. I have often visited and purchased at its large shop. I hope that all members will gather at the steps of the Garn Lobby tomorrow after First Minister's questions for a photo call in recognition of heart month. Coronary pulmonary resuscitation, CPR, is essential to save lives and with revive R, a 15-minute online BHF training course, each of us can learn to save a life. In 2021, there were 7,048 deaths in Scotland where coronary heart disease, the most common type of heart illness, was an underlying cause. To be welcomed is a 19% reduction in CHD immortality over the last decade. However, further progress has slowed in recent years, mainly due to our ageing population. Demographic change is also why, by 2043, the burden of cardiovascular disease is projected to rise by 34% compared to 2019, more than for any other category of illness, according to a Public Health Scotland study published in November. I am therefore glad that the Scottish Government's heart disease action plan 2021, described as laudable by Dr David Murder, consultant cardiologist at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow, included minimising preventable heart disease by improving the detection, diagnosis and management of risk factor conditions as a top priority. Sadly, Scotland has a relatively high prevalence of key heart disease risk factors, such as smoking and poor diet. Heart disease in the most deprived quintile is two-thirds higher than the least deprived one. British Heart Foundation findings show that North Ayrshire has the fourth highest death rate in Scotland. Indeed, around 2,000 people die of smoking-related heart disease in Scotland each year, around one in seven of all circulatory disease-related deaths. The chemicals and cigarettes make the walls of human artery sticky, causing fatty material to stick to them, clogging and reducing blood flow, increasing the risk of heart attack. European Society of Cardiology research shows that e-cigarettes raise blood pressure and heart rate change the artery walls so that they become stiffer, less elastic and inhibit the function of blood vessels by damaging their lining. I am therefore grateful to my colleague Siobhan Brown for bringing in the problems posed by widespread youth vaping to the chamber yesterday. We can only reduce deaths caused by heart disease if we continue working to reduce the risk factors. One challenge of preventing heart disease is engaging with hard-to-reach segments of the population, particularly poorer households who are at a high risk of preventable ill health. Many people in Scotland already live with at least one risk factor, often without being aware of it. British Heart Foundation Scotland has worked hard for decades to change that, working to save lives across Scotland from their dogged campaign on organ donation over 20 years to pursuing equal treatment for women with heart disease to encouraging people to learn CPR, all of which I have been involved in and, indeed, raised in the chamber over the years. Community defibrillator availability is important. As Paul MacLennan and Jenny Minto have said, every minute lost awaiting CPR reduces survivability, following a cardiac arrest by 10 per cent, and defibs double the chances of survival. In August last year, a man suffered a heart attack while waiting for a train at Dorae station in my constituency. Fortunately, the train driver witnessed this, informed the passengers, and a doctor stepped off the train and performed CPR while two other passengers ran to Dorae cross and back to fetch a defibrillator before the ambulance arrived shortly after. The patient fully recovered thanks to the quick reaction of everyone involved in helping and the availability of a defibrillator. I am pleased that one has now been installed at Dorae station, but, of course, more people need to learn how to use them. If clear that while significant progress on reducing deaths caused by heart disease in recent years has been made, Scotland faces challenges due to a combination of an aging population and a relatively high prevalence of risk factors for heart disease, especially in areas within the most deprived quintile. While prevention already plays an important part in the Scottish Government's heart disease action plan, progress in people training, CPR and installation of more defibrillators remains vital. I once again thank British Heart Foundation Scotland for their invaluable work at Paul MacLennan for bringing the issue of heart disease to the chamber. Thank you very much. Is it good for me now to respond to the debate, cabinet secretary, around seven minutes please? Thank you very much, Deputy Presiding Officer. Can I begin what others have as well by congratulating my colleague and friend Paul MacLennan for bringing this very important debate, vital debate, to the parliamentary chamber? I also thank British Heart Foundation for the fantastic work that they do in Scotland. We know, as every member has already mentioned in their contributions, that, unfortunately, we know that heart disease remains a significant cause of ill health and, indeed, unfortunately, death in Scotland. Let me echo other members as well and congratulate the British Heart Foundation for their really phenomenal work that they carry out to tackle cardiovascular diseases that others have mentioned across the chamber. They are the largest public funder of cardiovascular research in Scotland, funding more than £53 million of research right across 10 Scottish universities. That is almost 13 per cent of British Heart Foundation's current research portfolio that is spent here in Scotland. I think that that reflects that they have won their commitment to Scotland and to working with their partners in Scotland to address the issues around cardiovascular disease, but it also reflects, I hope, the quality of cardiovascular research that has taken place right across our country. That is something that we should all be very proud of and a note of recognition is due to the researchers whose hard work is at the very heart of this success. British Heart Foundation's mission does not stop at funding research. They also have a number of priorities that have been mentioned by everybody here in their contributions, tackle the heart disease risk factors, ensure timely and equitable care, and improve the collection and use of data. I should say that those priorities outlined in the motion that Paul McLean has brought to the chamber are entirely aligned with the priorities in the Scottish Government's heart disease action plan. I want to touch on some of the points that have been made in the contributions today. Paul McLean has started by urging us all to familiarise ourselves with the CPR online tool reviver that the BHF has, and others have mentioned that it is important not just to us to know about CPR and how to perform CPR correctly, but how to use a defib as well. Kenny Gibson made that point a moment ago. It is a good reminder to all of us, even those who have done first aid in the past, to make sure that we are refreshed on CPR techniques, because it could very literally save lives, of course, Emma Harper. Just occurred to me that, as a member of the Health and Sport Committee, we did the reviver training just in the Health and Sport Committee one morning. Would the cabinet secretary think that maybe that is something that we could look at engaging or rolling out to other MSPs on the Parliament campus? That would be a decision for parliamentary authorities to take, but it is an excellent idea. I will take that away from a Government perspective, because it would certainly be good for me and other ministers to do. It reminds me of a time in my life when I witnessed somebody having a cardiac arrest that was at a gathering, a reception. I was talking to the individual, in fact, and then they fell on their back and had a cardiac arrest, and there were another maybe 20 people in that room. I am sorry to say that I did not know what to do. I was not sure about the signs and what was taking place in front of me. Luckily, one of the waitresses was also a student nurse. She lept into action, and there was a defib where we were as well. By the time the paramedics came, a very quick response time indeed, luckily the individual is alive and with us today, I am pleased to say. However, the paramedics made it very clear that the story could have been very different if that student nurse had not been there in the room. I take that opportunity to thank every single one of our hard-working health and social care staff for the excellent work that they do. However, in a room of 20 of us, none of us lept into action because we were not sure of what to do. That, for me, was the moment that I thought that I really needed to know how to do CPR and some basic first aid went in a course shortly thereafter. The other point that I wanted to touch upon, which has not been mentioned in the debate, has been mentioned perhaps indirectly around the inequalities that exist. One of those inequalities is racialised inequalities that exist, particularly around COPD and heart disease, and it is important that we do not lose sight of those racialised and health inequalities that we know exist. My former member of the Scottish Parliament, the late Bashir Ahmad, unfortunately passed away from a heart attack at the age of 68. We know that cardiovascular disease and COPD can affect particular ethnic minority communities more disproportionately than it does to the white Scottish population. It is so important that we look at inequalities and the various factors of inequality—social, economic, racial inequalities and the intersectionality of those. I thought that excellent contributions were made by a number of members, Jenny Minto, making that a really important point about the campaign that she has led and other MSPs have joined in relation to removing VAT for defibrillators. I am happy to take that up with my UK counterpart today, but I will speak again to my UK counterpart in health and see what we can do and add our weight to what is a very sensible campaign. I will certainly explore what more we can do in the Scottish Government to increase the number of defibs right across the country, in communities up and down Scotland, can only be to the benefit of everybody. I am so really grateful for Jenny Minto for raising that point. On Craig Hoy's very good contribution, first of all we will hold him to that promise. He must not be broken. He must purchase an item from the British Heart Foundation store in North Berwick. I am sure that he will keep that promise. More seriously, though, the point that he makes about sudden cardiac death, I am more than happy to meet him. I am sure that we do that alongside the campaign group that he referenced. I was really grateful to him for mentioning David's story with somebody known to many of us in the Scottish Parliament. I met with David Hill's family a number of months ago at the Scottish Rugby reception. I am in awe of how they have turned over the tragic circumstance. Nobody would fault them at all for grieving that loss of David, and I am sure that they do every day. They have been campaigning for better awareness of sudden cardiac death, so I am really grateful to his family for doing that. I am more than happy to meet Craig Hoy and we will get that arranged. On Karen Adams' excellent contribution, first of all I would have loved to have met your mum. That sounds like incredible woman. The point that she has made and other members have also touched on in relation to women's health is so, so important. Heart disease is not just a man's problem, it is just a problem that affects men. That is why she is absolutely right. Of course, it is a central part of our women's health plan. A number of people are quite surprised once they read the detail of why we had it in the plan and understood the importance of heart disease and knowing the risk factors for women as well as men. I am really grateful to the Prime Minister for all the contributions. Today, we will continue to work with partners such as the British Heart Foundation, such as NHS and Heart and Stroke Scotland, and others. I commit and re-deadicate the Government to doing everything that we can to tackle heart disease across Scotland. Thank you very much. That concludes the debate, and I close this meeting of Parliament.

What's going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overload here since about a few different horror topics in this video here today We'll be talking about saw X we'll be talking about scream 7 basically a cliff notes version of my earlier video from the day We'll be talking about the exorcist believer and we'll be talking about Chucky season 3 now starting off with saw X saw X has officially been rated R not that it was expected to hit anything else below that But it's been rated R for sequences of grizzly bloody violence and torture language and some drug use We also got a new look at Paulette Hernandez's character crying in her trap and keep in mind I've touched on this fact in the trailer and TV spots if examined close enough It does seem to confirm what her characters fate will be in the upcoming sick game Nick John has planned for these frauds out in New Mexico Or not New Mexico in Mexico. I should say Director Kevin Gruder also had this to say about the film recently when speaking to Empire magazine Kramer is the center of the story and He said that saw X will feature John Kramer more than any other saw saw X is an emotional journey that you go on with John Kramer And less a slaughterhouse that you experience from the point of view of the victims Obviously, there will be people that can't handle it, but I think There will be people that can't handle it But I think it has a good chance of appealing to people beyond Gore-freaks now again I do want to add this a lot of this story is expected to be from John's POV as we've been told so chances are We'll get a better understanding of him Because of this narrative decision So for those of you who have been looking forward to seeing what I guess you could argue is closely the Like a jigsaw to I think actually the rating that saw X just got being rated R I think one of the alternative titles that it has listed is calling this movie jigsaw to which in a lot of way does make sense Considering that this is going to be a very Kramer's a Kramer centric and driven Narrative from his perspective as opposed to the victim's perspective So you guys let me know she thought about the new image down the comment section below What do you think about John? John's not John's but Kevin's comments on the film down below dump jumping into a Scream seven. So here's my cliff notes version of my scream seven video from earlier today So after sitting on this for a while I decided to discuss more of what I've heard about scream seven since more reputable folks beyond myself have heard this same thing and just Are not talking about it due to the strikes. You're just not hearing about it for the always very reasons now Neff Campbell Negotiated her return as Sydney Prescott prior to these ongoing strikes She either secured the deal or didn't because of the looming strike I was told that she didn't sign on but that could have changed But most importantly at least we know that she has one foot in the door at least now. Here's the thing one rumor that I haven't really had Too much To let me say okay I believe it but fandom Empire shout out to this channel fandom Empire They had also been hearing that radio silence will be not directing But they would be producing and they also heard a third part of their rumor So two-thirds of the rumor came true the third part of the rumor that they had was at scream seven will be a Sydney centric story now I Would prefer this be done with a balance between Sid and Sam co-existing somehow and having their own arcs Versus Sydney taking over completely and having Sam in the core for and whoever else decides to come back as supporting roles in what is essentially just All Sydney in every which way. I just think you should find that balance similar to how shout out to you Ryan you did point this out Ryan with your Screen podcast Ryan showers for those of you who are not familiar check out his podcast amazing podcast But Ryan pointed out that they have been able to find this balance between Sydney and Gale and a lot of the past sequels So they can do it with Sam and Sydney. I see no reason why you can't do it If you're competent enough to do it, I would say but diving into the ex-believer a new image from David Gordon greens the ex-believer came out from Empire magazine today and He said this as well about the film. He said the Halloween franchise The Halloween movies are in the slasher genre. They're they're a place to play and Maybe have some campy fun But this one was more researched and a bit academic the narrative we were sculpting and the relationships We were were more dramatic. It's a very different approach We're talking about the horror genre But my main ambition was to preserve the dramatic integrity and not lean into what's evolved Within the genre as a result of the original film Now, I mean a lot of people me being one of them would argue that what we've seen just seems like a modern Exorcist movie with all the generic things we've seen from Exorcism movies that want to be the exorcist But now this one is just attached to the legendary IP to help boost his box office The new image that came across your screen earlier of and down Or and out the girls and men from what I can only assume is the church looks like it's from a sitcom if I'm being quite honest But execution again, like I've stated is everything For anyone interested in reading an alleged plot leak a more updated plot leak allegedly I'll leave a link to that in the description, but I will say this this plot leak Contradicts the newly released image and other aspects of what I've been told plot wise they happen to be backed up by the recent Released image from Empire magazine. So this plot leak can be real But also could be from an earlier screening or it could be complete BS But if it's from a recent screening Then the movie is marketing itself with scenes and images that likely are not going to be present in the final cut And if this plot leak that you decide to read because I'm not going to specifically Outright talk about it But if you decide to read what I'm going to link in the description if this ends up being true I will share with you what they changed and give context on that image of and that was released today from Empire magazine If that's not in the movie because if they are utilizing things that was cut from previous test screenings I mean, it's a brilliant way to misdirect your audience. But at the same time you could you could be in for probably a worse Reception than initially thought depending on what you guys think about this plot leak again I'll link it in the description Jumping into Chucky season 3 Chucky season 3 has to have a trailer dropping soon. It would seem or maybe something else, but I'm gonna assume it's a trailer Because this little idiot Chucky that beam put out this post on Twitter saying the only thing scarier than red receipts is me a Video over on tiktok had this clown typing a note that said my fellow assholes major campaign reveal Coming soon. So text me at 201 500 3347 now to join the Chucky party. It doesn't sound like a bad political party at all I mean the leader is a murderer. So everything's cool and fine with us. Now if you already texted this number You won't get anything out of him right now, but newbies who did not text it last time Did get something saying I? Got something coming for you soon or something along those lines Here's the thing. It's the end of the day Chuck and nothing dropped in fairness He didn't say it would be today He just said soon, but I take it soon could be tomorrow at this point Friday But I'm hoping at least it's something this week and not something next week. We need that trailer We're only getting four episodes. That was also confirmed this week. We're gonna get four episodes only I'll leave a link to that confirmation in the description for those of you want to check it out Chucky season 3 will only be four episodes. It's confirmed Let me know what you guys think about this down in the comments below if you haven't already, of course Make sure you subscribe turn on post notification in this video in the description. I have links on my social media accounts I'm on Facebook Twitter and Instagram you can message me there So let me know if there's any movies news or reviews I'm gonna cover in the future and with all that in mind guys. I will see you in the next video
