Aşağımız gayrı olsun değerli kanunuç izleyicilerin. 23.April 2022.Tarık'ta kanunuç ekibinde hoş geldiler. 23.April bizim için kardeş Türkiye'de çok önemli bir bayram günüdür. Yani 23 Nisan değiller. Usal egemenlik yani milli, suerinlik ve çocuk bayramı yanışarların bayramı. 3.Nasibat ile bütün Türk dünyasının kardeş Türkiye'nin ve milli suerinliğine sergi gösteren bütün milletler ve tebrik eyliyorum. Bugün bizim için de milli suerinliğimiz, tehdit altında olduğu için çok önemli bir gün sahilir bugün. Biz de nihayet milli suerinliğimizi tehdit eden bütün amirlerden canlı taracıyız, kardeş Türkiye'yi kimin? Sözün, hegemen aslında egemen bir devlet olup yolumuza devam edeceği. Nizeki 304 yıl bundan önce yani bir esir bundan önce milli liderimiz Mehmedemir Esruzade'nin rehberliği altında 2 yılda olsa biz onu yaşadık. 30 yıl önce de buna cahdit ettik. Yine biriyle yaşadık ama daha uzun ömürlüğü suerin, azat, demokratik, edaletli bir sistem direğiyle bunki verileşimizi başlayır. Ölçe problemlerinden danışacağız. Esasem Rusya ve Ukrayna arasında bugün devam edilen savaş hakkında aslında bu savaşın daha değerli Rusya'nın Ukrayna tecavüzünün içerisinde Azerbaycın bazarına, tebrik Azerbaycanın hayatına bir menalı şekilde tesir gösterir. Hem Rusya'da hem Ukrayna'da çok milyonlu soydaşlarımız var, yarım milyon Ukrayna'da yaşıyor, 3 milyonluğundan artık Rusya'da yaşıyor. Onlar da bu ülkede milyon problemler uzunluğundan, uzbatından gedebiler. İrtiket çöreği de alacağın gedebiler. Bak budur. Problem budur. Yeni de gelip derwentte de aslında Azerbaycan seledinde ülkeye bırakılmalar. Bu da bu başka belamızdı. Ne gözlüğü bizi? Biz de Azerbaycan'da yaşayan ehalinin karşılaşa ilerde hansı mallarla bağlı problemlere ortaya çıkabilir. Söyvet bağlaşmaların getir. Savaş varsa, iksadiyat çöçüpse, muharbe gelirse, böyle bir şerayette onun bazarına ne kimi tesirler olabilecek? Bak bu haftada danışabilecek. İmkan olsa biz bugün Ukrayna'da bağlayabilecek. Oradaki soydaşlarımızdan birinin durumla bağlı fikrini de size tegdim edecek. Sonunda herhalde 5-10 dk'da olsa Ukrayna'da yaşayan soydaşımız Vagit Bey'e bağlamaya çalışabilecek. Sırava gün yarımız kaldı Söyvet'imiz. Ve leşimizin konağı ise yayınçkanlıç ahtoriasından da çok yakıştanıştır size. Hürmetli Vahid Mehremli'dir. Vahid Bey, Milli Şurhan'ın Karnesya Merkezi'nin düzgü, Azabucan-Khazıya Bersik Parti'ya'sının idare yetim düzgü. Ve bizim için çok değerli bir expert Vahid Mehremli hala hazırda canlı yayımdır. Buyurun Vahid Bey, hoş gördünüz. Hoş gördü Yürüfet Bey. Siz de selamlı yıram, bizi izleyen dostlara da selamlı yıram. Siz girişi neyden başladınız? Ona da bir münasip et bildirmeyi isteyelim. Allah rahmet eylesin büyük Atatürk'e. Rahmetlik diyirdi ki vatanı korumak, çocukları korumakla başlar. Yani biz uzun inlerdi. Demiyorlar ki uşak kulunun verilmesinden bağlı. Ökümete müraciyet etsek de terspüler olsun ki hükümet, bizim müraciyetimize hükümet cevap birmir. Ve Azerbaycan'da çok bu sayda uşaklar normal gidadan mehrum olubular. Normal tesilden mehrum olubular. Normal yaşayıştan mehrum olubular. Onların anaları, akaları ezebeziye çekir. İşe aktarır, iş tapabilmi. Kiminse hesabına, yakın kohumların hesabına bir teher uşakları yola verir. Ancak bizim uşaklar böyle yaşamamaldı. Bizim uşaklar yakışı yaşamaldı. Yakışı tesil almaldı. Azerbaycan'ın milyarlarla ölçülen serveti. Yemin uşaklara da pay edilmezdi. Yani kul formasında. Hesbirler olsun ki yine değilim. Azerbaycan hükümeti. Bizim bu teşedbüsümüzü eşitmir. Azerbaycan hakimiyeti lal olup, çaro olup, çoro olup. Ne görür bizim o vatandaşları, vatandaşların uşaklarının durumunu. Ne de eşidir. Bir başlayak konkret bu günkü meseleyle bağlı. Siz giriş verdiniz. Giriş verdiğinizde göre bizlere şapulundan başlayak. Niye göre şapulundan başlayak? Son günler çok meraklı açıklamalarınız var. Madem ki Zozur Bayramlı, çok güzel Atatürk'e ölmez gazimiz. Gazi Mustafa Şeval Atatürk'ü istinaden sözlediniz. Niye sizin itham edersiniz ve haklı olarak da itham edersiniz? Niye ülkeden her 7.1 milyar dolar civarında bütceden uğurlu olup, ama uşaklılığı verir mi? Belki de bundan başlayak, tabii ki ilerleyen dergelerde Ukrayna-Rusya Savaşı kanteksinde de bazarın durumunu sizden soruşacak. Buyur nereye uşaklılığıyla devam edecek? Tamamıyla doğulu Rıfet Bey. Biz uzun müddetti, yine deyiren uşaklılığı verilmesinden bağlı kampanyaya keçirik. Hele de o kampanyanın bakmira prasiyan giyip dayandırmamış. Üniyetle uzun müddetti milli Şura, Kalkça Pesi Parkası ile sizin kimi jurnalistler, iştma-i siyasi felalar, demiyorlar ki uşaklılığının verilmesinden bağlı statuslar yazdığı yüzlerle, millerle, çagrışlar edir, çıkışlar edir, ama hökümet bizi eşitme istemir. Neyi esas getirir, bilirsiniz mi? Hökümet değil ki bizde, bütçedeki fayat kadar vesaire yoktur ki, biz hemen bütçe hesabına uşaklara kul verelim. Ama bak, kefminen 2012-14. ilde demeli ülkeden 10 milyar, 250 milyon 10 milyar, 250 milyon doldular vesaire çıkartalım, uşaklara okurlanarak, ülkeden okurlanarak. Yani o zamanki UDM'in 15 faizi heciminde demeli ülkeden vesaire çıkartılıp, ve bunu Britanya'nın tanınmış şurnalisti, Olver Aşklı'yı, yani siz de bununla tanıştınız, yani ülkeden bu kadar milyarlarla doldular çıkartıldığı halda, bizim her ilde o uşaklara ilde 100 manak verin, bu da ümumelikte 3 milyar manak edebilir. Yani bu doldular hesabıyla götürsek, hiç 2 milyar doldular elam, 2 milyar doldulardan da aşağıda. Yani tezefür edin, bunlar çıkarttığı vesaire, üzülüsüyle 11 milyar doldlardan çok. Yani bu kadar vesaire tezefür edin, 5 ilde, tefminen 6 ilde, 6 ilde, bu da uşaklarla 100 manak verin, 6 ilde tam ödeyebilir. Halbuki o vesaire bu ülkeden ogurulayan memurların, 10'la da elal ve 2, 3 o kadar vesaire, yani çıkarıbılar, öz aileleri için, uşakları için, hem de gerbölkelerinde, hem de diğer ülkelerde yerleştiribler, 30 durublar ve uzun müddet onlar düşünürler ki, bu vesaire özlerine, uşaklarına, uşaklarının uşaklarının uşaklarına, bütün tayfalarına veside. Yani burada da uşaklar açsız. Ondan sonra normal giyinebilmirler. Tam semimi deyiren. Bir dilenci kadın gelmişti cevangardın. Körpe uşaktan. O eee çöreh kulu istiyordu. Ben düştüm markete, onlara çöreye aldım, yemeye aldım, verdim sevince eve kaçtılar. Ben düşündüm ki yerdin onlar. Hele dayanı biraz da kimdense pul isteyeceğiyle. Sevince eve kaçtılar. Bir yerdin onlar bize bakır eee olabilsin. Yani bele hala salıbılar bu ülkenin. Bu ülkeni bele hala salıbılar bir kisme çöre için dilenir e hali. Bunlar da bunu görmüyor. Lütfen bunlar eee bu insanları göresit değil. Bu kadar vaziyetleri yakışır ki bunları eee ele hesabiyedir ki eee halin ham sonlar kimi dolanır. Bakın eee bizim son bu ikinci vaten muhabbesinde biz neyin şahidi oldu? Çoklu sayda bizim şahid olmuş eee gençlerimizin hansı şerayette yaşadığımız diyor. İnsan yaşamayacak bir şerayette bizim dünyanın hele bir ülkesini ben tanımıyorum ki nefis olabilsin Afrika'da hardasa çok geride kalmış. Ümumi ülkenin ülke geride kalmış ülkede öyle eee şerayette yaşayan olsun. Ancak sivil ülke hesabıydır da bunlar Azerbaycan eee demiyorlar ki dervi ülkesin. Niye Azerbaycan'daydı? Geografya. Bizim geograf eee daha çok eee gerp ülkesi eee hesap eee hesap olmuyor. Geografyem dedi. Niye bizim ülkede şahılar demeli çakul almamalı? Niye bizim ülke ehalinizin ten yarısı işsiz olmalı? Niye orta eme haklı bizde Bonşu Gürcistan'dan, Ermenistan'dan, Rusya'dan, İran'dan, Türkiye'den geride olmalı. Ehalimiz az, servetimiz çok, ehalimiz oldukça işgüzar. Men Azerbaycanlılar kimi işgüzar, ikinci bir yakışım ile tanımak. O oldukça işgüzar. Bizim uşaklar gelir Rusya'da eee sonra eee der bölkelerinde, Türkiye'de, ya da eee Kazakistan'da, Bela, Rusya'da, Ukrayna'da, buradan hatta yol kulu demiyorlar ki borca alıp giydirler. Orda milyonlar kazanırlar. Elebeleden kazanırlar. Demeli onlar zahmet sevendiği, emek sevendiği, bacı arıklıdı, onu gül. Şimdi bu ehalye özveteninde iş yeri takılıyor. Bu ehalye özveteninde iş görme imkanı vermiyorlar. Imkan vermiyorlar ki bu insanlar özleri için demeli bir biznesi yaratsın. Bura diger adamları da işe celb etsin. Yeni iş yeri yaratsın. Neyse istesal edip onu ya dahili pazarda satsın. Ya ayrıca ikrac etsin, gelir elde etsin. İmkan vermiyorlar. Uzun müddetti. Bu ülkede normal biznesi kurmada imkan vermiyor. Yani Azerbaycan ehalisi bu şerhalde yaşıyor. Ve bizim gençlerimizi mahvedirler. Bizim gençlerimizi mahvedirler. Bu şaklar, sizsiniz yakışı sağlam büyümeyle değil, birincisi vetenini korusun. İkincisi yakışı sağlam büyümeyle değil, yakışı tehsil alıp gelecekte yararlı olsunlar. Bu ülkeni inşa ettiren belki gençlerden olsunlar. Iıı ve üçüncüsü nihayet bunlar normal aile grub yeni nesil dünya getirebilsinler. Azerbaycanların sayı artsın. Yani bak bütün bu ııı imkanlardan mehrumdur. Bugün çoklu sayede gençler var ki evlene bilmiyor. Ona göre ki maddi durumu demiyorlar ki oldukça acınacak. Ve onlar evleneyim. Iıı yani işsiz adamlardır. Evlenip ailesini nice dolandıracak. Uşaklar dünya gelecek onu nice dolandıracak. Çok acınacak. Bir yanından demeli ııı şakrılı verimirler. Diğer taraftan problem yaradılar ki Azerbaycanlılar Azerbaycan'da iş takmasın. Azerbaycan'dan çıkıp geçsin. Hele siz yakışı değildiniz. Hatta buradan gidenleri ülkeye de bırakmalılar. Böyle Azerbaycan vatandaşını ülke bırakmalar. Serhette onları demiyorlar ki açsuz saklıyınlar orada vatana bırakmalar. Bir hal har da baş görebiler. Yalnız Azerbaycan'da. Bizi izleyici de böyle bir şir yazıp Vahid Bey on dokuyuma da bir ııı sohbetimize renk laksın. Bir ayda yedim milyar azayın karıştı olan Azerbaycanlılar gönderdiler Azerbaycan'a. Tekminen Regemler'e uygun yazıp ııı demeli İlham Aliye ve onun teyen ettiği memurlar gönderilen pulda kaldan koparlılar. Manapole yoluyla üşfet yoluyla şerleme yoluyla. Yani bakın indigel ki izleyici haricin yazı bir yahu aradan yazıp bilmirem. Uyallıktır. Azerbaycan devlet düzcesi talan edilip. Talan edilmeseydi bugün değilmezdi ki şakplu vermeye pulumuz yok. Vahid Bey isnadiladın. Isnadiladın ben de eee bu meseleye aydınlık getirme istiyelim ki yagın Vahid Bey de itiraz etmez. Eee monillend yazıp eee monillend niye okurlar ve fırıldak ııı dünyanın idareidir. Onu denize geri almalı. Bu kütabın melefi İngiliz Yunanisi ve Polisisi Ali Berhul oldu. Demeli eee bu yakınlarda buna eee Azerbaycan demaktan bir pak partiyasının serdiri Kistat Profesör Gubad Vadoğlu yazıp yagın ki ııı etraklı. Ver, ver, ver. Vahid Bey'in getirmeyi dönüştür. Bunu okuyayım kısa da olsa. Demeli orada ofşelin kistahriyatındaki eee Büyük Britanya'nın roluna dair eee bu yazdığı Azerbaycan'dan da besledir. Ben eee Azerbaycan'dan eee demeli giydirilir ki Britanya parlamentörleri bildirirler ki çektik kulların yulması Azerbaycan'a ümumdakil mevsunun on beş faizinden başka şekilde. Bu dehşet bir reklamdı yani. On beş faiz çektik kulların yulmasına serfo olun. Burada dikkat et çeken megamlardan biri de Azerbaycan'da çektik kulların dövüyesinin hezmidir. Onun ümumdakil mevsunun on beş faizi kadar olması, ümumdakil mevsunun haziki seviyesinde altı tam yüzde yetmiş beş milyar dolar, iki bin on dördüncü seviyesindesi on bir tam yüzde yirmi beş milyar dolar nedir? Bu işe son yıllar. Evet sizin dediğiniz kimi? Yetti on bir milyar dolar vs. Azerbaycan'a oradan oranarak bir tane yaksusuyla da ofşör zonulara taşınması demektir. Açık aşağıya milletin parası, pulu, varlığı, düneni, bu günü kesmişi orlanıp bu ülkeden ve en zamanda bugün milletimizde Rusya'nın çöllerinde kalıp, serhadimizde kalıp, izleyen de değiller gerezli siz, gerezli hansı megam ortaya koyar ki orada gerez var. Yani elimizi vicdanımızın üstüne koyar danışa. Üzül ısrarım Vahid Bey sözünüzü kestim. Hele ııı hemen mevcuta sohbetimiz devam ettirelim. Bundan sonra ufak pulunun verilmesiyle bağlı. Bu kadar faklar ortalığa koydur. Bu kadar ifşalar ortalığa koydur. Bunun mügabülünde hiçbir reaksiyon yoktur ve utanmadan da sıkıp halka da yalan almış onlar. Bunu Vahid Bey size işledi. Tamam ile doğru doğru Rüfet Bey. Tesadüf edin, gelipler evimize bütün evde ne var hamsını okurluyumlar. Biz bunlara değiliz ki bu okurlara, ay okurlar, hiç olmasa evde körpe uşak var. Ona bir bismet çöreş saklıyım. Bunlar umunu da çok görür. Yani sözün esin menasında beledi. Bunlar neci gelmişti? Bunların değirdiler ki bizim bahçede evimiz yoktu. Ümumiyet Lezervacı'nda evimiz yoktu. Bunların burada evi mi vardı? Bunların burada mülki mi vardı? Bunların burada kolumu vardı. Hamsı bizim gözümüz önünde de nekeyimeye bir kaltarları normal yok idi. Gündü gelipler ülkenin bütün varını talıyip var. Bütün servetini talıyip var. Bütün gelirler bunlara gelir. Artık öyle harımlıyorlar ki bunların ödüge ölkelerde çoklu sayda binaları var. Mehman kanaları var. Biznesleri var. Ve bunlara diyende ki uşak kulu ver değil bir cedef oluyordu ki. Niye yoktu bir cedef ol? Bu neften gelen gelir, hara gelir. Sen ne yetmişsin? Sen bu ülke neft kuyusu kazmışsa sen oradan boru çekmişsin. Bütün bunların hamsı Azerbaycan kulu hesabına. Yani bizsiniz bunlara iradımız çoktu. Gerezli değiller mi? Boy gesinler. Biz bunları tengit etmekte davam edeceğiz. Geri çekilen değiliz. Bunların o gurladığı o bütün harane yerleştiripler hamsını ipşe edeceğiz. Bunları biabredeceğiz. Bunlar bizim ülkeni biabredir. Bunlar bu Azerbaycan'a kara bir lekad. Ve biz bunları ııı çok ciddi tahkirilemeli, hatta tengit elemeli, ona göre ki ona layıklı. Ne ki olur? Sen günün gün ortaça Azerbaycan'dan uğru değil misin? Mendeğende de değil gerezli sen. Neye gerezliyen ben? Hani bu kullar niye hesabatını vermişler? Niye bunlar şeffaf faaliyet göstermiyorlar? Elbette karupsia, rüşvet. Bakın demeli biz de felan ödeyelim. Değil ki bizsiniz o kullar hardan gelip esasını. Regiyonların inkiyafı adıyla bilirsiniz ki çoklu layyeler hayata geçirdiler. Yani devlet programı kabul ettiler ve Regiyonların inkiyafı adıyla seksen dört milyar doğullar vesayet demiyorlar ki bütçeden ayrılmış. Hani o vesayet yok açtı. O kadar vesayet hele ondan sonra da ayrılar. Yine o sahiye bu ayrılık. Ama ne iş görübüler bunlar? Bunlar saldığı yollar dağılık. O yolların otuz gıgıl demeli eee karantyesi olmalıydı. Halbuki hemen yollar artık demiyorlar ki sıradan çıkıp istifadeye de yararsızdı. Bakmayarak ki o yolların maşrılar hareket edildi ama ezebeze çekildi. Yollar dağılık. Kentlerde hansişler görmüşler. Bir merkezi küşelere değil ki kentte yok rayon merkezlerinde onu boyamışlar. O da artık o renkte giydip yavşuyu vaparı bodu giydik. Partlar salıplar, partlar kime lazımdı? Onsuz da rayon merkezinde partlar var idi ve heminki partlar indikinden daha yakışıyor. Yaşılı orada daha çok. Sonra bayrak direhleri eee kaldırıbılar kime lazımdı? Bayrağı görevde sevesen o hündürlükte bayrak direği kime lazımdı? Yani bugün o direhler de boş kaldı. Ekser yeri deş bayrak aslında. Heykeller orada eee demiyorlar ki bütün rayon merkezlerde, bazı kentlerde ekiye ekser kentlerde heykel ucaldıklar kime lazımdı heykeller? Onsuz da bir vakti heykellerin hamsi götürüldü. Nece Leylin'in heykeleri götürüldü. Stalin'in heykeleri götürüldü. Diğer Kamilist Partisi'nin liderlerinin heykeleri götürüldü. O da götürüldü. Ne yedikler? Bak o gapik kuruş o işlere kaçlamış olallı. Bakın bir samballı iş görübler mi? Ölkenin suya olan teminatının ödenilmesinden bağlı. Herhangi bir ciddi lahya heyete götürüldü. Iki üç orada soğan barı enişe edibler. Orada eee herbirine bir milyar eee demeli dolar vesaire kaç yıllar. Halbuki analoji demeli o soğan barlarım. Türkiye'de ondan dört üç dört defa ucuz bir şeydirler. Yani orada da demiyorlar ki oraya ayrılan vesayeti menimsiyip ofşora taşıyırlar. Ülkenin su teminatı elde olunmuyor. Torpaklarda degradat seprasiyesi uzun müddetlik edir. Orada milyar etsi bir şeyler hayata geçirilmiyor. Yani bak tokum çılgın kefettirilmeliydi. Şimdi tokumak olan ihtiyacımız demiyorlar ki ödenilmiyor. Bunlar istifade ettiği, kentiler istifade ettiği adi adi demeli bu erzat için nezarda tutulan ııı tokumlardı. Iıı demeli ııı yemeği ııı ııı tokum başka. Daha doğrusu gidayı için nezarda tutulan mevzuldur ki ondan erzat ııı tokum için istifade olun. Yani ııı diger taraftan ülke istiyesal vasitelerini dinleniyorlar ki şimdi biz ondan bağını görürüm ben siz artık eyle neylerdiniz? Daha düşeceğiz. Ithal da nasıl oldu? Ithal ediyor. Evet. Ben hele yeri gelmişken kent serfahlı nazirine bir retorik sualımız dolu. Ya sen yalan danışırsan yoksa prezdin. Ben isteyerdim o mesele aydınlık getirek. E mükemmel kent serfahat sektirı eee genç kadrı getirdiler. Asan kidmekten asan kadrı getirdiler ama kent serfahat sektirinde her ansı bir yenilik olmadı ki hiç. Kalanı da sizden izleyicilerden çok karşılıyorum Efiri. Bayan'ın Efir'de konağımız eee Vahid Mehremlidir. Örmetli Vahid Bey'le tahmin eyle bundan sonra bir yarım saatten artık da beraber olacağız. Buyurun Vahid Bey. Teşekkür ederim Rıfet Bey. Rıfet Bey, evvela demeli bu ııı derp telsizliği diyek de ııı ııı ııı ııı ııı ııı ııı ııı müteahist demeyi olmaz kadr diyek. Bunun esas işin eden ibaret olmalıydı gelendi. Hiç olmasa demeli ona kadar statist kadar, hatalara yol verilmişti. Yani o statistik regemlerin degileştirilmesi olmalıydı ki ülkede ne kadar deyiki torpa karazemiz var, ne kadar suyumuz var, ne kadar bizim istihsal ettiğimiz meksul var. Yani bak bunlar degileşmeliydi. Bu gelenden sonra tezebur edin. Ile gelen kimi başladı regemleri şirkmeyi. Ve dedi ki biz ulu önder, heyder, alevin ııı agrar siyasetini davam ettireceğiz. O hansı işlere afarmıştı. O yolun ne dedi? Tezebur edin. Demeli birden bire bukday istesalını artırdılar. Hatta o yayılan elemişti. Iki milyon üç yüz bin ton. Halbuki ülkede tam semimi değilim. Bir milyon iki yüz bin ton iki bin onuncu ilde bukday istesal olunmuştu. Iki bin onuncu ilde bukday istesal olunmuştu. Riyal'ı da yakın regem oydu. Biz bilir yakın. Işiniz ııı bu işelerdi ki hiç regionlara gitmek lazım değil. Halbuki biz regionlara giydiriyiz, mehsul darılı ve yedebiliriz. Ne kadar olabilir mehsul darılı? Yani ülkede yeganen olabilsin. Bu işle meşgul olan kurum bizi. Biz regionlara giydirip onu mehsenidir. Iki ne kadar mehsul olabilir. Ila tam semimi değilim. Hatta bunlar bu ilhameli hansı sahiye ki giydir bukda sahesine veya da takıl sahesine orada şekiller çektiriyor veya da pamuk sahesine öyle şekilde müayyen etmek mümkündükü ne kadar orada mehsul gözleridir. Şekile bakanda yani biz bilirdik ki ülkede ne kadar ambar var, ne kadar mehsul steseloğumuz, bunun hamsini biliyoruz. Şimdi bunlar getirdi şirkti, onu çıkarttılar, iki milyon, iki yüz bin tona. Sonra da görülür devlet statistika komitesi orada biraz ucundan kesti, bir milyon yüz ııı otuz mene en iki milyon yüz otuz mene indirdi. Şimdi tesebur edin. Biz diyirdik ki Azerbaycan 70 faizit halbuklasından asılıdır. Bunlar diyetler yok. Azerbaycan ııı hardasa kırk faiz ithalda nasıldı. Yani Erzak Buğda'sına olan kalabatın kırk faiz ithalı. Akırda ne çeyildi? Ilhameli efte onlara yakın regemleri seslendirirdi. Onlar dediğimi diyirdi. Akıl akıl bu ilmecburoldu. Yani gördüler ki artık ülkede bukdayla bağlı kriziz yer alır. Açık etraf etmeli oldular ki Azerbaycan cemi yirmi beş faiz tesebur edin. Erzak Buğda'sına olan telabatının yirmi beşce faizini ödüyor. Yirmi beşce faizini. Ve bu realga yakın regenli. Bize bunu diyirdik ki ebberler hardasa yetmiş faiz diyen de onun ezerdalardır. Çünkü biz otuz eee yani faiz ödediğini hesap edin. Şimdi böyle çıkır ki Azerbaycan istihsal ettiği buğdanın yarından çoğu psikaf şirdilmiş regenli. Ve bu işte iştirahçı eyle indikini hazırdı. Indiye kimin bu kadar regemler şirdilmemiş, tesebur edin. Ebberler var idi. O da ııı ayrılan subsidianın menümsenilmesi mekserdeyle edilmişti. Eraziler geniş gösterilmişti ve o mehsul darlık ııı artık gösterildi ki o vesayetleri menümsesinde iki bin onuncu yılda ise o sahede başlandı yoklamalar ve çekildiler artık regemler şirdilmeli. Yani eee realga yakın iki bin onuncu ilin regemidir. Dindi de bu değilen regem seslendirilen regem o yirmi beş faiz. Demeli dahili istihsal hesabına özümüzü ödüyoruz. Bak bu realga yakın. Şimdi bizsiniz bu nazirden soruşulur. Ya ki sen bu regemin yeşşirdir. Bu redemleri yeşşirdirsen o redem akı, o redemden çöre almak olmaz. Çöre pişirme olmaz. O redemden ehalili değer ki yedizleme olmaz. Ehaliye çöre lazımdı. Çörek de Rusya'dan gelir. Demeli bunlar o problemi ört bastır etmek için. Özde bizsiniz ne canım? Bu nazir bir ııı demeli geyri peşekar takip getirip o da kaperat sayım üstünü kutarı partdan getirip onu koyup ııı bu agrar ııı tedbiratlar merkezi var. O da rehber. Tesevbur edin. Bu adamın kent tesarifatından anlayışı yoktu. Bu götürül o ııı şirdilmiş statistik regenleri orada ne bileyim diagram gurur ne bileyim özümden nelerse uydurur. Ve ııı daha çok o o istigamette ııı demeli ııı bir ııı teddimatlar edirdi ki güya her şey yakışıdır. Ve ııı ölke özünün erzak mevsullarına olan telabatını doksan faiz, doksan beş faiz, hatta yüz faiz ödüyor. Diğer mevsulları hatta. Bizsiniz. Ve nazir de bu dediğini esas getirip ona uygun da çıkışlar edin. Sahede batıp gelir, sahede batıp gelir. Tesefbur ediyorsunuz Azerbaycan. Yetmiş beş faiz bu kuduya olan telabatın itikamın hesabını ödüyor. Buk'da bizim hem çöreğimiz de hem de um memuratlar mıyız? Bizsiniz bu kuda strateji ehemiyet kespiden bir mahsulluğu. Ülkenin erzak tehlike sizliğini bakıp, erzak tehlike sizliğine çavakti olan şeksler, indiye kimi ııı iştim hayata aldatmakla meşgul olublar. Ve biz de indiye kimi defelerle demişi, mihman Ali ııı birisiniz de Turan ııı demeli agentliğini rehberi, defelerle televizyalarda çıkış edip deyip ki aldatmıyor bu milleti. Ölkenin bu kuduya olan telabatı bir milyon iki yüz, bir milyon üç yüz mil tondu. Ve biz de bir o kadar ithal edelim. Yani birisiniz. Ya ııı indi derpte tesil alın. Bu kuşuna aslı. Bu paşet düşmürcüyü, bu regemlerle manipülesi etmek sona kadar olmayacak. Bir bak ahaliye çöreği lazım kocam. Indi problem ne çıktı? Indi bu kuda ithalımızda problem yarandı. Ve artık ortaya o çıkır ki bu kuda gelmese bu millet ağacından kırılacak. Bu millet çörek takar bilmeyecek. Bu millete ve eyle bahagıymate bu kuda gelebilir ki ahalin bir sesi o çöreği alabilmez. Aha başa gele. Dedi ki girmez bunlar. Şimdi birbir onların hamsını lazım demeyen diyeyim. Birisiniz. Şekerimiz doksan faizden çok ithalda nasıldı. Şeker. Şeker çugundur istihsal etmek eylemi problemdi. Bacarmıllar. Demeli bitki yağına olan telabatımız doksan faizden çok ithalda nasıldı. Ne de biz bitki yağı istihsal edebilmeli. Biz kargıdalımı istihsal edebilmeli. Biz günabakalımı istihsal edebilmeli. Yani bu usahede de ithalda nasıllığımız çoktu. Tesadüledim. Bugün bugün uçuşluktan meşgul olan firmerler artık değiller ki ya biz istihsalı dayandırmalıyız. Beyaz da biz istihsal ettiğimiz malın mehsulun kıymetini artırmalıyız. Neye göre? Kuşuşlukta istifade olan yi mehsullarım da biz istihsal edebilmeli. Yakışı keyfetli arpa lazımdı onu istihsal edebilmeli. Garfıdalı keyfetli istihsal etmek lazımdı onu istihsal edebilmeli. Soya istihsal etmek lazımdı keyfetli onu istihsal ede bilmeli. Ithalda nasıllı? Yani ülke her yerde yüz binbaş diri heyevan getirilir. Biri boynuzlu malganı. Ve ülkede kesilir. Dahili istihsal kimi gösterdi? Bunlar da diyor ki biz et ha olan telabatımızı tamamıyla dahili istihsal hesabına ödülür. Bilirsiniz bunlar telabatın ne kadar olduğunu müayyen edebilirler. Ne oluyor? Şare ettiyiz. Eee aslında bir keçit doldu. Bu savaş döneminde. Bizi neler gözlüyor? Gerçekten Rusya'dan, benim bildiğim kadar Azerbaycan'ın Erzak bazarına mehsulların meyensiz Ukranya'dan meyensiz Rusya'dan meyensiz Türkiye'den gelir. Bunlar bu niçeyiyle ne gruplar bu ülkede? Şimdi savaş var o orada meyagliyat kamikası imkanları problemler üzleşecek. Hatta Rusya'nın özlünün budega bazarlarında ve şeker tozunun problemi yaranır. Azerbaycan bazarında neler eee hansı problemler gözlendir. Ben isterdim öyle savaş fonunda biz de bu meseleye biz kesildi. İzleyicilerden karıştıralım ki aktif olun. Fikirlerinizi, suallarınızı bildirebilirsin Hürmetli Bağit Bey'le. Eee takmine yarım saatte yakın beraber olacağız. Teşekkür ederim Rüfett Bey. Rüfett Bey, Azerbaycan düz değilsiniz. Her hansı bir asaslı iş görmüyor ki hansı saaheden nailiyet olacağından bağlı biz pragma seyrediler. Bakın hansı sahane bunlar, isteyipler, nese etsinler, şimdi güye inkişaf ediller kimi, maliyet risursu ayrıplar, teknika getiribler, oradan da öz marakları için de, teknik hanıbaha da kıymeti getirip bir sesini ayrılan vesayetin menimsiyip ofşörlara taşıyorlar. Sonra ölkiye gübre getirirler, oradan da kul okurluyurlar, onu da ofşörlara. Bunların marakı de ki neyse ağlık getirmekte bir ce marakı var. Oradan okurlamar. Oradan da okurlayan da bakı baba yolunun o gününe düşürüyor ve yani keyfiyatı aşağı olan gübre getirilir. Hemen gübreden de mesul darlığı artırmak mümkün değil. Yani öyle bir sahaya yoktu ki biz de ki sabah ne iftimiz dayandı. Biz o saheden belki gelir elde edip hiç olmasa Azerbaycan'ı az koyma raktı. Yoktu. Şimdi mesela çünkü bu muharbe eğer muharbe payı zayi ne kadar çekerse Azerbaycan'ın çok ciddi problemler gözlüyor. Bak dünen dünen ben rahat marak market var. Ona 70'em yak almama. Bir eee yirmi gün bundan kabah beş manata aldığım yak sekiz manak yirmi belki. Tezabür edersiniz. Bu bir günün için, bir iki günün ben orada soruştum o marketin rehberliğinden ki bunu ne bak kaldımsın? Dedile iki gündü kıymeti kaldırmışım. Dedim ne acaba? Dedim onsuz da her gün artırdı. Onu göre ki bize mal getirenler zen gidip değil ki malın kıymeti kıymeti kalkıp yerinden. Belki de ithal çatınlaşıp ona göre kıymeti artırır. Yani demeli biz bu Kuran yadan daha çok yardı. Sonra hatta tövbe katını da oradan daha çok ithal ederek tezabür edin. Bu şartın. Yani ııı çoklu mehsullar var ki biz daha çok ııı demeli Rusya'dan ithal ederek ve bir sesinde okuran idi. Tezabür edin, bizim ithal ettiğimiz bukdanın da doksan sekiz onda sekiz faizi Rusya'dan. Rusya'dan da. Vaktiyle Kazakistan'dan numayende gelmiş Gazerbaycan'a ki ııı hökümet oradan bir jurnalistlik göndermişti ki bu jurnalist de bize müracaet edirdi ki siz ııı bizim mehsulun belki reklamını ııı teşkil edin, terifliğin ışıkçılarınızda ve biz ııı o bukdanı belki istiyesat ettiğimiz bukdanı Azerbaycan hökümetine takip ederek Azerbaycan hökümeti onu almakta maraklı olsun. Yani onlar elebilirdi ki ııı muhalifetçileri hökümet dinleyir. Yani müstehirli ekspertleri. Yani ııı Azerbaycan hökümeti imtina ilenmişti o vakit Kazakistan'dan bukda almalı. Onu göre ki gönlün Rusya hökümeti mecbur etmişti onları ki Azerbaycan Rusya'dan o bukdanı bukdanı ithal etsin. Ve bugün Azerbaycan tam doksan sekiz onda sekiz bu ayet Rusya buktasından asıl. Kazakistan'da ise istesal düşü başarı. Kazakistan gördü ki müşterlere azaldı. Kazakistan keyfetli bukdayı istesalıydır. Ama remeti bahadı. Yani bu sebepten de Kazakistan istesalı artırıp artık Kazakistan Azerbaycan kimi ülkeye o hacımda bukda hiç ikrac edebilmez. Yalnız orta asya ülkelerine ııı müayyen asyacımda bukda ikrac edildi. Diğer taraftan Ukranya'da ciddi. Veziyet çok ciddi, kritikti. Ona göre ki Ukranya'nın esas bukda istesalının meşgul olan o ııı regionlarında bugün dava gelir, muharbe giydir. Orada indi düzlüğü pahazlı vekinli hayata geçirip de ancak o mahsulu yıkmak çok problemli olacak. Hani orada agrasekniki gaydalara da emel edebilirler. Pahazlık yemlemeye sonra ııı ziyan vericilere karşı, hastaliklere karşı mübarete tedbirleri vakti vaktinde yata geçirebilirler. Hatta istediğim bak böyle bir temelime ııı megalede okudum. Iıı Ruslar eğer o regionu ele geçirerse Ukranya'nın orada yığılmış ehliyet buğdasını ele geçirebilirler. Bu da çok ciddi problem yaradar hem ve Ukrayna için hem de bizimkimi ülkeler için hem de biz daha çok temeli ııı Ukrayna'dan bitkiyagı itkal edildi. Bu hem bitkiyagı istesalında ciddi problem olacak. Bitkiyagı bizimiz. Art o erazilerde daha çok ııı temeli günabakan istesalı olmadığı, bu günabakan istesalı indi mümkün olmayacak. Yani temeli biz Rusya'dan alırık Rusya problem yaradır. Ukrayna'dan alabilerdik Ukrayna'nın özünde problem var. Kazakistan'dan alabilerdik Kazakistan bir o kadar istesal etmiyor. Azerbaycan'ın veziyeti çetinleşir, ciddi çetinleşir. Azerbaycan özü de istesal ede bilmiyor. Istesal teşkil ede bilmiyor. Ne de adice buğdanı adice buğdanı istesal edebilmiyor bu hükme. Teşkil edebilmiyor buğdanın istesalını yeke yeke danışırlar ete bazı ete bazı hareketler eliyle özlerinden razılık onlar dünüye güye yol gösterirdi. Ne bileyim ne inirdi? Belki dayandırak değirdi. Güya Azerbaycan'ıyle in kefedir ki yavaşlamak lazım idi. Deşle işleri boş. Görecek bir işleri yok ortada. Bir netice yok. Yalanından boş boş tanışırdılar. Boş boş fedler verirdiler. Ölkeni ithalde nasıl veziyette koybılar? Tesavvur edin eğer bir niçeyil bundan evvel ülkeye getirilen olmalı ümumi değeri bir milyar dolar edise indi iki milyar dolara çatıp tesavvur edin. Bir niçeyil de yakın demeli beş altı ilde, beş altı ilde, bu nazir gelenden sonra evvelki de bir işgür edildi. Bunlar gayrı peş açarlar da defelerle demişsin. Siz eğer o nazirdik olan belki o dinanın hemim mertebesinde kalksanız orada siz oradaki etrin iyisinden bir huş olarsın. Orada muasir geyimlik hanımları getirbiler işe. Hamza İngiliz dilli olmalı. Rus dilli olmalı. Ben değiliz. Nazir gelenden sonra bir tendisi ya orada hüküm sürü. Beğeli, beğeli, beğeli. Orada bilsiniz. Orada ııı işgüzer mühüt değil. Orada sanki bile ııı kek çekmek, hayattan lezzet almak, daha debdebel giymek, daha der ki o ııı kadınlarla necediğim başka üniyetler kurmak. Orada kentte sarıfatından iyi gelmiyor. Düzdü kuzunu almıştı kucağına bir şehrin çektirmiş. Değer tarafı da değildi ki eee nazirden kuzu iyisi gelir. Ama eee herhalde kuzunu iyi iyi iyiye göre yok kebaba göre kucağına almıştı. Orada bugün eee mühüt eledi ki demeli yaltaklı ne benim naziri terflemek. Buna sonra nazir dediğine başsedemeyen düzdü orada tapılır namustu adamlar, vicdanlı adamlar, onlar yakın adamlarından bize mesaj gönderirler, oradaki veziyetle bağlı. Ama beziyet orada yeni değilim işgüzer değil. Orada peşekarlar gibi mi? Çünkü onlar çok tersler olsun. Düşünsün ki yani nece etmek lazım ki ülken inşa et. Çok güzel. İzleyicilerimizin fikirlerini ben istiyordum Vahid Bey sizden. Buyurun. Şimdi. Öltsün Murmuz'u adlı eee izleyici yazır ki ürmetli rükvetler ben özüm sivirde yaşıyorum. Biden Allah'a mağazalar ottu yanır. Kerem'in kilosu yüz elli rubuldu. Kartosk'a yetmiş rubul olup köre yetmiş rubuldu. Yani ben bildiğim kadar resmi olarak eee yetmiş rubul bu diyegei bir doksan centelemeldi resmi olarak ama gayr resmi. Rusya'da dolar problemi var. Yani eee Rusya'da gel bu problemler ortaya çıktı sağa ve biz öz erzak terbiyesizliğimizi teminleyebilmem bir şeyse bizim için daha ciddi problemler ortaya çıkacak. Eee siz gelin insanlara başsağılın ki yalan sıfırıllakçı eee Zopa ve Dubinka'yla başa düşen insanlara hiç Allah da kömeylemeyecek. Khaber hanım bu gede pesimiz yazıp eee Sar Osmanlı'a yazır ki başıdan Zoyan'a gitti iyice her terap boş torpahlarda niye şunlanı ekinmir? Teşekkür ederek eee mögeğine göre eee izleyicimizin. Kuşak bunu vermemekte hakimiyetin mekserde bundan ibarettir ki Azerbaycan ahalisinin sayının artmasını istemiyoruz. Yani bu arada Bahadir Bey'in fikrini öğrenmek çok marahlı olur. Ama ben istiyordum ki Örmetli Refle kanun bu soranına sizden soruşum eee salam biz niye ümid ederek ederek ki hansısa ülke, dahil istesalının artıraza bizim da pulumuz var alacıyık. Niye? Karıcına ertikalını minima indirme için program hazırlamalılar. Biraz profesyonel soran oldu. Yakin Şevad Bey'in bununla bağlı da ve izleyicimizin o iddiasına bağlı ki Kuşak bunu vermediler ki bizim ahalinin sayı artmasın. Hatta ahalinin sayının artmasında marahlı olmayan deputatlar da ortaya çıkıyor. Nazir sahil baba evinde bir ilginç biraz da diyerek eee absurda açıklamasının biz şahidi olduk. Vay be bir öncesi de izleyicilerden karşılayacağım, aktif olun. Eee teşekkür ederim efendim. Rüfet Bey bizi izleyenlere de teşekkür ederim, yakışı sorular verirler. Et valla uşak bulunan bağlı onu geleyim ki hedi geten. Yani yakin hatırlıyorsunuz, deputatları da yedirdi ki uşak bulunu o ülkede verirler ki hatta biri absurt bir eee ifade işletmişti. Uşak doğulmayan ülkede değildi. Uşaklı bir. Eee elbette bu absurdu. Yani hem de sahil baba evin demesi ki eğer biz uşaklılı verirse uşakların sayı artacağım. Demeli kulların meksiyede neydi? Bunları yüz başına demez. Ne ki olur? Hem deputatlar deyi, hem sahil baba ev diye, yani memurlar deyi, demeli bunların meksiyede oğlu ki, Azerbaycanların sayı artmasın. Vakti onlar düşünür ki eğer Azerbaycanlı aile, iki uşağıma göre iki yüz manat alarsa o aile işlemeyecek. Birincisi iş yoktusa, peki getende iş yoktusa o aile başçıları belki har da işleyebilir. Iş yoktu. Yok iş varsa niye onlar çalışmalı değil ki eme haklıları eve gelen vesayetin hecmı artsın. Absurken aşırlar. İnsanlar hemşe daha çok kul kazanmak hakkında düşünürler. Egele bir imkan varsa niye daha çok kul kazanılmasın? Özüde deyim ki bilsiniz necadet. Bu insanların psikologiası geledik. Karaççı hayatı yaşayan insanlar böyle de eke o pis durumda olan insanlar hiç vakit yakışı yaşama hakkında düşünmüyor. Eger onların eline vesayet geçerse, mesela şu uşakları için kul verilirse, onları da kula marak yaranacak. Onlar çalışacak ki daha çok kul kazanmasınlar ki daha yakışı yaşasınlar. Eger onlar borç alırlarsa, kimlense hemşe ne bileyim oradan buradan borcalık yaşayırlarsa onlar yakışı yaşamak hakkında düşünebilmez. Hiç vakit düşünebilmez. Yakışı yaşamak hakkında o vakit düşünürler ki onların gelirleri olsun. Çalışınları gelirleri biraz da artırsınlar, biraz da artırsın. Bu insanın psikologiası eğer bugün üç nefer ailede uşak varsa üç yüz manad o aileye kul verilirse tamamına o ailenin belki rehberleri ata ana düşünecek ki aha biz gelin bir küçük aile uşak kulunu yıga bir ine yala bir ine yala ve o ineği besleyen, o inekten de ki bala alak, süt alak, sülünü sata, sonra balasını kesek etini sata bu hak da düşüneceğiyle veya da tövök cüce alacaklar. O üç yüz manadın tam emine. Bir sesine tövök cüce alıp tövök cüceğini saklıyor, daha da yakışı gidelim vakitinde düşüneceler. Bak bu bu insanların bile psikologiası var. Ekseriyeti bu vakit de düşünür. Ben emrim ki böyle olacak. Ama bunlar ne düşünür? Bunlar tersini düşündü. Bunlar istemir bu halk deyip ki yakışı yaşasın, firaban yaşasın, daha yakışı yaşamak hakkında düşünsün. Bunlar istemir ki bu haldın iblatlarını sayı artsın, Azerbaycanların sayı artsın. Bunlar haldı sevmeyen adam var. Haldı sefseler bu kadar işsizin belki ülkede mevcutluğuna dözeller benim rüyam avrıyor, şefsim benim rüyam avrıyor ki ne kadar bu ülkede işsiz var? Bakı biz geri kalırız diğer ülkelerden konşularımız inşa felidir, biz geri kalırız. Yani biz şimdi neftin belki gelirine ümid olmuşuz. Neftimizin de hasılata zalat bildiğimiz kimi? Bir vaktin sonra olmayacak. Nift pullarında bunlar uğurluyup çıkardıklar hamsını ölçeden azacık ve sağ etsahliyibler özleri için. Şimdi oradan da buradan da harıda hansı lahya neyete keçirler, uğuruyla onu da taşıyorlar. Bu insanlar neyine kalacak? Demek ki nefti yok. Neft olmayacak. Gazet olmayacak. Ve stesalda gurulmuyup normal stesalımızda yok. Kulsuz, pis ve ziyete düşeceği. Çok pis ve ziyete düşeceği. Ona göre ki bunlar bu halkı istemir. Bunlar bu halkı görmeye bunların halkı gözü yoktu. Deli olmasaydı bu halka dediğim kim imkan yarada. İkinci sual ile bağlı. Niye bunlar devlet programı kabul ediyor? Değer ki erzak tehlike sizliğinin bağlı veya ta bizim iden ahsullarına olan kelamatın artırılmasından bağlı. Stesalın artırılmasından bağlı. Rüfet Bey bunlar bacar mı? Birincisi olabilirsin istemirler. Bunların ben o bir yol karitesi var idi. Orada baktın. Inandırırım sizi. Eyle primitif hazırlanmıştır. Gerek birbirininle uygunlaştığını bilirsiniz. Kendi tesarifatını inkişaf ettirme neden başlıyor? Mesela çok. Kadırların yetiştirilmesinden. İlk nöbede. Programında ilk nöbede ne olmalı? Kadırların yetiştirilmesi. Sonra gelir. Hermirlerin mariflendirilmesi. Sonra gelir. Ölkenin su tesarifatında belki o bir milyon dört yüz bin hektar sulanan erazımız var. O suyla temir attığı. Sonra gelir. Seleksiye işinin yakışılaştırılması, muasir debinin talabına uygun kurulması, seleksiye adı, geniyetik adı, yani sonra gelir bu. Ondan sonra gelir. Mesela istesal vasitelerin ölçe dağılında istesalı. Bu. Sonra gelir istesal olma mahsulun ambarlarda saklanılması için ambar infrastrukturunun belki teşkiliydi. Ve bazarın belki ülkede bazarın pazardan manapolyanın götürülmesi, normal bazarların yaradılması da imkan vermek dışı yok. Ve elde olan mehsulların e-malı. Mesela ki bu da istesal olursa edilirse imkan yaratmak ki her rayon merkezinde hiç olmasa bir tane yakışı ünütme muesses olsun gayriman olsun. Bu böyle böyle görümü ne kadar işler var ki? Bu kompleks yanaşılsa ve bu birbirinle ne kadar olmalı. Ben bunların programlarını aslında biz saytığında demeli hiç neye lazım olmadığını söz yığnağı olduğunu demeli fatlarla, orduların o yazdıklarını fatlarla suikote yedirdim ki bunların o devlet programı adlandırdıkları o çağrıs hiç neye yaranır. Hiç neye yaranır. Mesela ki siz gelmişsiniz altıncı, yerdinci şakitlerine değilsiniz ki siz ne düşünürsünüz? Mesela ki bu kendin kentteki beziyeti yakışılaştırmak şunun hansı tehlikeli bilebiliriz. Çok primiti, oldukça primiti riyallıktan uzağım eladesiz, birbirinin eladesi yoktu orada ne işi gömülelim. Vallaha basit şu yollarını tegdim eyle şimdi izleyicilerin de burada sualları var. Mesela izleyici sualları ki bağlaşma kent serfatına hansı tersi gösterice ve bağlaşmanın karşısına almak mümkün olacağı mı? Olduğuca sert mövge sergilen izleyicilerimiz de var. Geri gelmişken ben elçim Muruzeva teşekkür ediyorum ki Akstafa'da koca asker kendinde mental işlerle meşguludular, yardım işlerle meşguludular. Akim Kazmovi yazır ki 80. yıllarda Azerbaycan azgalar sonuna yakın buğda hasıl edildi. Ve zindin oğlu, bu kadar kent serfatı mütahistleri varsa, niye kadırlarda mehsyediyo'nun istifade edildiğini çok teşekkür ederim izleyicimize. İyiger Fakrettin Feruzov yazır ki rejim kalgı temsiliyetimiz gösterici Rusya'dan gelir beli olmalıdır. Başka izleyici, Azersel adlı izleyici Rüfet Bey, Algarflar torpakları zevk dediler, cemaat su tapur dair sahilerek taklı buğdan sulasın. Bunu da bilerekten edildiler. Salam Azerbaycan adlı izleyici de yazır ki çünkü Rusya hükümeti buradaki Rusbaçları tapşırıp verip ki hiç ne isteği sal etmesinler ve anıza bizden aslı olmalılar. Yani oldukça sert iddiamlar var burada. Ben istiyordum hem bu izleyicilerin fikirlerine sizin yaşmanızı yani değerlendirmenizi eşidek. Mesela el bir suyun oldu yazır ki her bir halk gader olduğuna layıydır. Herhalde el bir bey bizim halkımız bunu hakketmiz. Yani o halkın biz her düz değerli vaid beyhar'da yaşıyor. O da kubad bekmi karşıda yaşıyor. Halka yarayan gayretli insanlar vetenle uzak saldılar, lenet olmuşlar. Azerbaycan yazır. Vaid bey Azerbaycan'da yaşıyor. Lemen Azerbaycan'da yaşıyorum. Ölke haricinde olanlar da gelecektir Azerbaycan'a. Bu ülkede bu milletin hak gittiği şekilde. Bir esir önce cümhuriyete arka durabilmeyeceği bir halk yokuydu böyle. Bir sayı varmak hesabı olan kişiler ayakta durdular. Başta da Muhammed Emre Suzade ve silah taşları. Bu sistemi kurdular. Birinci dünya savaşının ağır günlerinde. Biz niye bugün öz devletimizi öz milletimizi öz hak gittiğimiz şekilde idare etmek. Ben çok izleyicilerin fikirlerini okudum. Çünkü tekminen 10 de geldiği vakitimiz kalıp ve ona göre de bir ümumleştirme aparatı beleşin sonunda bağlaşma, kent serfatına ne kimi tesir gösterecek. Kent serfatı sektirinde olan algakların bayları. Son günler kürde de suda çok ciddi azalma valide. Bu iddiya da var ki orada çoğu kürün etrafında sahilinde en zamanda araz sahilinde de serfatlar var. Ayrıal algakların serfatları bu da kürün suyun azalmasına tesir edilen faktirlardır. Ben bir istiyordum ki Vahid Bey bir ümumi yekûn olsun ve ne eğitmeliydi bu sualada bir cevap da sonunda. Teşekkür ederim Rıfet Bey. Rıfet Bey kent serfatı meksullarının kıymetinin bağlaşması Azerbaycan ehalisine ciddi serfatına tesir etmeyecek. Azerbaycan ehalisinin ciddi tesir edecek. Teşekkür ederim Azerbaycan ehalisi aldığı eme haklının elli bir faizini bir de mehsulları için karşılıyor. Yani eğer derman preparatlarında böyle nezere alsak bu gelir hardası yetmiş faize. İmkansız adamlar ise az eme haklı alan ise demiyorlar ki eme haksını ile yalnız yeinti mehsulları için karşılıyor. Yani el adamlarda var ben dediğim 3 milyona yakın adam var ki eme haklı almıyor. Heddinden artık kasıp olan, imkansız olan çoğulu sayda aileler var. Oların hüseveziyetini oldukça ağırlaştıracak. Yani bakın, indikler bölgelerinde hansı attım atıllar orta da nispeten bazı malı meksulun kıymetinde artın başveriyip kıymet özünün mehsuliyetini hissediği. Demeli hökümet yardım eder ahaliye o kıymet artımını kompensatse edir. Diğer taraftan belediye de yardım edir. Belediye belediyeler de kompensatse verir. Nece pandemiye devründe bütün ülkeler öz vatandaşlarına el tuttular. Onlara yardım ettiler. Vesahat artılar. İndi de der bölgelerinde derliler ki, kıymet artımından ezer çelmesin. Azerbaycan'da ise, Azerbaycan'da tesevvru edin. İkinci indiki kıymet artımı baştık ve davam edin. Bakın diziliyen acağının kıymetini arttırdın. Neye keşfar edin? Sonra suyun kıymetini iki defa arttırdın. Benzinin kıymetini arttırdın. Elektrik enerjisinin kıymetini arttırdın. Gazın kıymetini arttırdın. Bütün kanunal karşıları arttırdın. İki de Erzad'ın kıymeti demiyorlar ki son birinde artı, artı, artı gidiyor. Elbette bundan insanlar ezer çekecek. Ehale ezer çekecek. O çıkaldığı Rüfet Bey bu hakimiyetin yüksek ve zifeli memurlarının torpakları ele keçirmesine bu praseste artık niçeyildi başlayıp ve davam edin. Öz de hansı adla agrar demeli parklar yaradılar bu kişiler. Bu agra parkları 5-6 ildi yaradı bunlar. 1 litirdolsun sütümüz artmıyor. 1 kg doğrusuna etimiz artmıyor. 1 kg doğrusun bugdağımız artmıyor. Demeli takılımız artmıyor. Şekerimiz artmıyor. Bu kadar agrar park yaradı bunlar. Devlet bücesinden 1 milyardan 1 milyar 100 milyon vesaiti ayrı bulağı tezebur edin. Ve özlerinin de hesabınla tekminin 2 milyarda yakındı. Şimdi burada soğal yer alınır. Cenab-ı Allah siz o 2 milyar manate hardan aldınız ki çibinizden o da vesait koyupsunuz. hardan demeli hansı hesabdan size o devlet bücesinden vesait arttılar. Halbuki bizim kentiler çetin durumda. Kredit alabil milyar ucuz kredi. Bunlara bir başa bücyeden vesait arttı. Bilsiniz esas bunların meksede nedir? Bunlar indiye kimi o elde olan kulları okşurlara gönderirdiler. Orada nese alırdılar. Son 1 2 ilde bunlara aydın oldu ki orada gönderilen vesait nezarete altında. Orada demeli beyin akap jurnalistler grubu var. Bütün ülkeden çıkan vesaitlerin hamsı nezarettedir. Ve o vesaitler yakın bir müddette dondurulabiler ellerinden alınabiler. Buna göre de bunlar neydi? O gurluladıkları vesaiti rüşvet horlukla, karukse yoluyla indihansı yoluna yürürler bunu Rüfet Bey. Bunu torpaka alıp, torpaka ele keçeri o torpakta güye spesal da meşguldular. Güye bunlar demeli o spesal ettikleri meksulu ambarlarda saklıyorlar sonra satışa gönderirler. Kul sililler büceden böyük hacimde vesaire. Hem demeli elde ettikleri kulu çiftli kulu, o gurluluk yoluyla rüşvetten, karukse yoluyla elde ettikleri kulu yü yıllar temizliğiller ki, sonra hikmet değişenler ki arkadaşlar biz burada istiyesalden meşgul olmuşuz kazancımız mesela için alma istiyesal edip satıp oradan geldi elde etmişiz bu onun hesabına bu kulu yalmışız. Yani sabah demesinler ki siz karukse yoluyla, o gurluk yoluyla bunu elde etmesiniz. Bunları çünkü yok biz istiyesalden meşgul olmuşuz bakın halımızın terni, biz buradan böyle takıl ekmişi, kokuday ekmişi filan ilenmişi bunların meksade bizsiniz hiç var belki bu halk için nese etmek yok bunların bici meksade olur oradan doğururlar, buradan doğururlar şimdi torpaları ele keçirler suya ele keçirler, düz değilsin bunlar ekin sahesini daha iki yüz minhikler genişlendirirler. Orada kentiler herhangi birine, ikiine saklayıp o tarırdı belki özünün süde olan temratını ödüyordu ete olan temratını ödüyordu o torpaları bunlar ellerinden aldı kentilerin orada ekinle meşguldular demiyorlar ki orada da bunların ekinle fayda yoktu artık diyelim bizsiniz bakın bunların bu tükenmez böyle iştahı Azerbaycan'ı demiyorlar ki Pisvezet'e buyur. Bu iki yüz minh torpava neye keşf vardı bunlar o torpayı mehvikdiler örüş sahelerine ekmeği olmaz örüş sahelerine ekmeği olmaz bunlar o sahilere ekler bunlar o suyu ele keçirirler kentlinin suyunu ele keçirirler ben öz gözümle şahit oldum saatler ayında emeli o kentilerin erazileri süzlükten mehmi olmuştu ve ben gördüm ki kanal dolu su gelir soruştum niye o sudan istifade edebilirsiniz dedi siz

21 The Spring in New York proceeded through more than its usual extremes of temperature to the threshold of a sultry dune. Ralph Marvel, barely bent to his task, felt the fantastic humours of the weather as only one more incoherence in the general chaos of his case. It was strange enough, after four years of marriage, to find himself again in his old brown room in Washington Square. It was hardly there that he'd expected Pegasus to land him, and, like a man returning to the scenes of his childhood, he found everything on a much smaller scale than he had imagined. Had the decanate boundaries really narrowed, or had the breach in the walls of his own life let in a wider vision? Certainly there had come to be other differences between his present and his former self than that embodied in the presence of his little boy in the next room. Paul, in fact, was now the chief link between Ralph and his past. Concerning his son, he still felt, and thought, in a general way, in the terms of the decanate tradition. He still wanted to implant in Paul some of the reserves and discriminations which divided that tradition from the new spirit of limitless concession. But for himself it was different. Since his transaction with Moffat he had had the sense of living under a new dispensation. He was not sure that it was any worse than the other, but then he was no longer very sure about anything. Perhaps this growing indifference was merely the reaction from a long, nervous strain, that his mother and sister thought it so, was shown by the way in which they mutely watched and hovered. Their discretion was like the hushed tread about a sick bed. They permitted themselves no criticism of Undine. He was asked no awkward questions, subjected to no ill-timed sympathy. They simply took him back, on his own terms, into the life he had left them to, and their silence had none of those subtle implications of disapproval which may be so much more wounding than speech. For a while he received a weekly letter from Undine. Vague and disappointing though they were, these missives helped him through the days. But he looked forward to them rather as a pretext for replies than for their actual contents. Undine was never at a loss for the spoken word. Ralph had often wandered at a verbal range and her fluent use of terms outside the current vocabulary. She'd certainly not picked these up in books since she never opened one. They seemed rather like some odd transmission of her preaching grandparents' oratory. But in her brief and colourless letters she repeated the same bold statements in the same few terms. She was well. She had been around with Berther Schellam. She had dined with the Jim Juskles or Mae Berenger or Dickie Bowles. The weather was too lovely or too awful. Such was the gist of her news. On the last page she hoped Paul was well and sent him a kiss. But she never made a suggestion concerning his care or asked a question about a pursuit. One could only infer that knowing in what good hands he was she judged such solicitude superfluous, and it was thus that Ralph put the matter to his mother. Of course she's not worrying about the boy. Why should she? She knows that with you and Laura he's as happy as a king. To which Mrs. Marvel would answer gravely. When you write, be sure to say I shan't put on his thinner flannels as long as his east wind lasts. As for her husband's welfare, Undine's sole allusion to it consisted in the invariable expression of the hope that he was getting along all right. The phrase was always the same, and Ralph learned to know just how far down the third page to look for it. In a post-script she sometimes asked him to tell her mother about a new way of doing hair or cutting a skirt, and this was usually the most eloquent passage of the letter. What satisfaction he extracted from these communications he would have found it hard to say. Yet when they did not come he missed them hardly less than if they had given him all he craved. Sometimes the mere act of holding the blue or mauve sheet and breathing its scent was like holding his wife's hand and being enveloped in her fresh young fragrance. The sentimental disappointment vanished in the penetrating physical sensation. In other moods it was enough to trace the letters of the first line and the last for the desert of perfunctory phrases between the two to vanish, leaving only the vision of their interlaced names as of a mystic bond which her own hand had tied. Or else he saw her closely, palpably before him, as she sat at her writing table, frowning in a little flushed, her bent nape showing the light on her hair, her short lip pulled up by the effort of composition, and this picture had the violent reality of dream images on the verge of waking. At other times, as he read her letter, he felt simply that at least in the moment of writing it, she had been with him. But in one of the last, she said, to excuse a bad blot and an incoherent sentence, everybody's talking to me at once, and I don't know what I'm writing. That letter he had thrown into the fire. After the first few weeks, the letters came less and less regularly. At the end of two months they seized. Ralph had gotten to the habit of watching for them on the days when a foreign post was due, and as the weeks went by without a sign, he began to invent excuses for leaving the office earlier, and hurrying back to Washten Square to search the letterbox for a big tinted envelope with a straggling, blotted superscription. Undine's departure had given him a momentary sense of liberation. At that stage in their relations any change would have brought relief. But now that she was gone, he knew she could never really go. Though his feeling for her had changed, it still ruled his life. If he saw her in her weakness, he felt her in her power, the power of youth and physical radiance that clung to his disenchanted memories as a scent she used clung to her letters. Looking back at their four years of marriage, he began to ask himself if he had done all he could to draw her half-formed spirit from its sleep. Had he not expected too much at first and grown too indifferent in the sequel? After all, she was still in the toy age, and perhaps the very extravagance of his love had retarded her growth, helped to imprison her in a little circle of frivolous illusions. But the last months had made a man of him, and when she came back he would know how to lift her to the height of his experience. So he would reason, day by day, as he hastened back to Washten Square. But when he opened the door and his first glance at the whole table showed him there was no letter there, his illusions shriveled down to their weak roots. She had not written. She did not mean to write. He and the boy were no longer a part of her life. When she came back everything would be as it had been before, with a dreary difference that she had tasted new pleasures and that their absence would take the savor from all yet to given. Then the coming of another foreign male would lift his hopes, and as he hurried home he would imagine new reasons for expecting a letter. Week after week he swung between the extremes of hope and ejection, and at last when the strain had become unbearable he cabled her. The answer ran, very well, best love writing. But the promised letter never came. He went on steadily with his work. He even passed through a phase of exaggerated energy, but as baffled youth fought in him for air. Was this to be the end? Was he to wear his life out in useless drudgery? The plain prose of it, of course, was that the economic situation remained unchanged by the sentimental catastrophe and that he must go on working for his wife and child. But at any rate, as it was mainly for Paul that he would henceforth work, it should be on his own terms and according to his inherited notions of straightness. He would never again engage in any transaction resembling his compact with moffat. Even now he was not sure there had been anything crooked in that, but the fact of his having instinctively referred the point to Mr. Sprague, rather than to his grandfather, implied a presumption against it. His partners were quick to profit by his sudden spurred of energy, and his work grew no lighter. He was not only the youngest and most recent member of the firm, but the one who had so far added least to the volume of its business. His hours were the longest, his absences, as summer approached, the least frequent and the most grudgingly accorded. No doubt his associates knew that he was pressed for money and could not risk a break. They worked him, and he was aware of it, and submitted because he dared not lose his job. But the long hours of mechanical drudgery were telling on his active body and undisciplined nerves. He began too late to subject himself to the persistent mortification of spirit and flesh which is a condition of the average business life. And after the long, dull days in the office, the evenings at his grandfather's wist table did not give him the counter-stimulus he needed. Almost everyone had gone out of town. But now and then Miss Ray came to dine, and Ralph, seated beneath the family portraits and opposite the desiccated Harriet, who had already faded to the semblance of one of her own great aunts, listened languidly to the kind of talk that the originals might have exchanged about the same table when New York gentility centered in the battery and the bowling green. Mr. Dagonet was always pleasant to see and hear, but his sarcasms were growing faint and recondite. They had as little bearing on life as the humours of a restoration comedy. As for Mrs. Marvel and Miss Ray, they seemed to the young man even more spectrally remote. Hardly anything that mattered to him existed for them, and their prejudices reminded him of signposts warning off trespasses who have long since ceased to intrude. Now and then he dined at his club and went on to the theatre with some young man of his own age, but he left them afterward, half vexed with himself for not being in the humour to prolong the adventure. There were moments when he would have liked to affirm his freedom in however common plays away, moments when the vulgarest way would have seemed the most satisfying. But he always ended by walking home alone and tiptoeing upstairs through the sleeping house, lest he should wake his boy. On Saturday afternoons, when the business world was hurrying to the country for golf and tennis, he stayed in town and took Paul to see the sprigs. Several times since his wife's departure he had tried to bring about closer relations between his own family and Undines, and the ladies of Washington Square and their eagerness to meet his wishes had made various friendly advances to Mrs. Sprague. But they were met by a mute resistance, which made Ralph suspect that Undine's strictures on his family had taken root in her mother's brooding mind, and he gave up the struggle to bring together what had been so effectually put to Sunday. If he regretted his lack of success, it was chiefly because he was so sorry for the sprigs. Soon after Undine's marriage they had abandoned their polychromes suite at the Centaurium, and since then their peregrinations had carried them through half the hotels with the metropolis. Undine, who had early discovered her mistake in thinking hotel life fashionable, had tried to persuade her parents to take a house of their own. But though they were framed from texting her with inconsistency, they did not act on our suggestion. Mrs. Sprague seemed to shrink from the thought of going back to housekeeping, and Ralph suspected that she depended on the transit from hotel to hotel as the one element of variety in our life. As for Mr. Sprague, it was impossible to imagine anyone in whom the domestic sentiments were more completely unlocalized and disconnected from any fixed habits, and he was probably aware of his changes of a boat chiefly as they obliged him to ascend from the subway, or descent from the elevated, a few blocks higher up or lower down. Neither husband nor wife complained to Ralph of their frequent displacements, or assigned to them any cause save the vague one of guessing they could do better. But Ralph noticed that the decreasing luxury of their life synchronized with Undine's growing demands for money. During the last few months, they'd transferred themselves to the mellopran, a tall, narrow structure resembling a grain elevator divided into cells, where Lenolium and Lincrusta simulated the stucco and marble of the Stentorian. In fact, businessmen and their families consumed the waterous tubes dispensed by coloured help in the grey twilight of a basement dining room. Mrs. Sprague had no sitting room, and Paul and his father had to be received in one of the long public parlours between ladies seated at rickety desks in the throes of correspondence and groups of listlessly conversing residents and colas. The Spragues were intensely proud of their grandson, and Ralph perceived that they would have liked to see Paul charging up roriously from group to group and thrusting his bright curls and cherubic smile upon the general attention, the fact that the boy preferred to stand between his grandfather's knees and play with Mrs. Sprague's masonic emblem, or dangle his legs from the arms of Mrs. Sprague's chair, seemed to his grandparents evidence of ill health or undue repression, and he was subjected by Mrs. Sprague to surging inquiries as to how his food set, and whether he didn't think his popper was too strict with him. A more embarrassing problem was raised by the surprise, in the shape of peanut candy or chocolate creams, which he was invited to hunt for in grandma's pockets, and which Ralph had to confiscate on the way home, lest the dietary rules of Washington Square should be too visibly infringed. Sometimes Ralph found Mrs. Heaney, Ruddy and Jovial, seated in the armchair opposite Mrs. Sprague, and regaling her with selections from a new batch of clippings. During Andine's illness of the previous winter, Mrs. Heaney had become a familiar figure to Paul, who had learned to expect almost as much from her bag as from his grandmother's pockets, so that the intempered Saturdays at the Malibran were usually followed by languid and epistemic Sundays in Washington Square. Mrs. Heaney, being unaware of this sequel to her bounties, formed the habit of repairing regularly on Saturdays, and while she chatted with his grandmother, the little boy was encouraged to scatter the grimy carpet with face creams and bunches of clippings in his thrilling quest for the sweets at the bottom of her bag. I declare, if he ain't in just as much of a hurry for everything as his mother, Shakespeare exclaimed one day, in her rich, rolling voice, and stooping to pick up a long strip of newspaper which Paul had flung aside, she added, as she smoothed it out. I guess if he was a little might older he'd be better pleased with this and with the candy. It's the very thing I was trying to find for you the other day, Mrs. Sprague. She went on, holding the bit of paper at arm's length, and she began to read out, with a loudness proportioned to the distance between her eyes and the text. With two such sprinters as Pete Van Deegan and Dicky Bowles to set the pace, it's no wonder the New York set in Paris has struck a livelier gate than ever this spring. It's a high-pressure season and no mistake, and no one lags behind less than the fascinating Mrs. Ralph Marvel, who is to be seen daily and nightly in all the smartest restaurants and naughtiest theaters, with so many devoted swains in attendance that the rival beauties of both worlds are set to be making catty comments. But then Mrs. Marvel's gowns are almost as good as her looks, and how can you expect the other women to stand for such a monopoly? To escape the strain of these visits Ralph once or twice tried the experiment of leaving Paul with his grandparents and calling for him in the late afternoon. But one day on re-entering the Malabran he was met by a small abashed figure clad in a kaleidoscopic tartan and a green velvet cap with a silver thistle. After this experience of the surprises of which Grandma was capable when she had a chance to take Paul shopping, Ralph did not again venture to leave his son, and their subsequent Saturdays were passed together in the sultry gloom of the Malabran. Conversation with the Sprags was almost impossible. Ralph could talk with his father-in-law in his office, but in the hotel parlor Mr. Sprags sat in a ruminating silence broken only by the omission of an occasional, well, well, address to his grandson. As for Mrs. Sprag, her son-in-law could not remember having had a sustained conversation with her since the distant day when he had first called at the Centaurian and had been entertained in Undine's absence by her astonished mother. The shock of that encounter had moved Mrs. Sprag to eloquence, but Ralph's entrance into the family, without making him seem less of a stranger, appeared once for all to have relieved her of the obligation of finding something to say to him. The one question she invariably asked, he heard from Undy, had been relatively easy to answer while his wife's infrequent letters continued to arrive, but a Saturday came when he felt the blood rise to his temples as, for the fourth consecutive week, he stammered out under the snapping eyes of Mrs. Heaney. No, not by this post either. I begin to think I must have lost a letter. And it was then that Mr. Sprag would sit silently looking up at the ceiling, cut short his wife's exclamation by an inquiry about real estate in the Bronx. After that, Ralph noticed, Mrs. Sprag never again renewed her question, and he understood that his father-in-law had guessed his embarrassment and wished to spare it. Ralph had never thought of looking for any delicacy of feeling under Mr. Sprag's large, lazy irony, and the incident drew the two men nearer together. Mrs. Sprag, for her part, was certainly not delicate, but she was simple and without malice, and Ralph liked her for a silent acceptance of her diminished state. Sometimes, as he sat between the lonely, primitive old couple, he wondered from what source Undy's voracious ambitions had been drawn. All she cared for, and attached importance to, was as remote from her parents' conception of life as her impatient greed from their passive stoicism. One hot afternoon, toward the end of June, Ralph suddenly wondered if Claire Van Degen were still in town. She had died in Washington Square some ten days earlier, and he remembered her saying that she'd sent the children down to Long Island, but that she herself meant to stay on in town till the heat grew unbearable. She hated her big showy place on Long Island. She was tired of the spring trip to London and Paris, where one met at every turn the faces one had grown sick of seeing all winter, and she declared that in the early summer New York was the only place in which one could escape from New Yorkers. She put the case amusingly, and it was like her to take up any attitude that went against the habits of her set, but she lived at the mercy of her moods, and one could never tell how long any one of them would rule her. As he sat in his office, with the noise and glare of the antlers afternoon rising up in hot waves from the street, they wandered into Ralph's mind a vision of her shady drawing room. All day it hung before him like the mirage of a spring before a dusty traveller. He felt a positive thirst for her presence, for the sound of her voice, the wide spaces and luxurious silences surrounding her. It was perhaps because on that particular day a spiral pain was twisting around to the back of his head and digging in a little deeper with each twist, and because the figures on the balance sheet before him were hopping about like black imps in an infernal form of them back, that the picture hung there so persistently. It was a long time since he had wanted anything as much as, at that particular moment, he wanted to be with Claire and hear her voice, and as soon as he had ground out the day's measure of work he rang up the Van Degen palace and learned that she was still in town. The lowered awnings of her inner drawing room cast a luminous shadow on old cabinets and consoles, and on the pale flowers scattered here and there in vases of bronze and porcelain. Claire's taste was as capricious as her moods, and the rest of the house was not in harmony with this room. There was, in particular, another drawing room, which she now described as Peter's creation, but which Ralph knew to be partly hers, a heavily decorated apartment, where Popples portrait of her thrown over a waste of gilt furniture. It was characteristic that today she had had Ralph shown in by another way, and that as she had spared him the polyphonic drawing room, so she had skillfully adapted her own appearance to her soberer background. She sat near the window, reading, in a clear cool dress, and at his entrance she merely slipped the finger between the pages and looked up at him. Her way of receiving him made him feel at restlessness and stridency or as unlike her genuine self as the gilded drawing room, and that this quiet creature was the only real Claire, the Claire who'd once been so nearly his, and who seemed to want him to know that she had never wholly been anyone else's. Why didn't you let me know you were still in town? He asked, as he sat down in the sofa corner near her chair. Her dark smile deepened. I hoped you'd come and see. One never knows with you. He was looking about the room with a kind of confused pleasure in its pale shadows and spots of dark, rich color. The old lacquered screen behind Claire's head looked like a lusterless black pool with gold leaves floating on it, and another piece, a little table at her elbow, had the brown bloom and the pearl-like curves of an old violin. I like to be here, Ralph said. She didn't make the mistake of asking. Then why do you never come? Instead she turned away and drew an inner curtain across the window to shut out the sunlight which was beginning to slant in and the awning. The mere fact of her not answering and the final touch of well-being which her gesture gave reminded him of other summer days they had spent together, long, rambling, boy and girl days in the hot woods and fields, while they had never thought of talking to each other unless there was something they particularly wanted to say. His tired fancy strayed off for a second to the thought of what it would have been like to come back at the end of the day to such a sweet community of silence, but his mind was too crowded with importunate facts for any lasting view of visionary distances. The thought faded and he merely felt how restful it was to have her near. I'm glad you stayed in town. You must let me come again, he said. I suppose she can't always get away, she answered, and she began to listen with grave intelligent eyes to his description of his tedious days. With her eyes on him he felt the exquisite relief of talking about himself as he had not dared to talk to anyone since his marriage. He would not for the world have confessed his discouragement, his consciousness of incapacity. To Andine and in Washington Square any hint of failure would have been taken as a criticism of what his wife demanded of him. Only to Claire Van Degen could he cry out his present despondency and his loathing of the interminable task ahead. A man doesn't know till he tries it how killing uncongenial work is and how it destroys the power of doing what one's fitful, even if there's time for both. But there's pull to be looked out for, and I dare not chuck my job. I'm in mortal terror of its chucking me. Little by little he slipped into a detailed recital of all his lesser worries, the most recent of which was his experience with the Lipscombs, who after a two-month tenancy of the West End Avenue house had decamped without paying their rent. Claire laughed contemptuously. Yes, I heard he'd come to grieve and been suspended from the stock exchange, and I see in the papers that this wife's retort has been to sue for a divorce. Ralph knew that, like all their clan, his cousin regarded a divorce suit as a vulgar and unnecessary way of taking the public into one's confidence. His mind flashed back to the family feast in Washington Square in celebration of his engagement. He recalled his grandfather's chance allusion to Mrs. Lipscomb, and Undine's answer floated out on our highest note. Oh, I guess she'll get a divorce pretty soon. He's been a disappointment to her. Ralph could still hear the horrified murmur with which his mother had rebuked his laugh, for he had laughed, had thought Undine's speech fresh and natural. Now he felt the ironic rebound of her words. Heaven knew he had been a disappointment to her, and what was there in her own feeling or in her inherited prejudices to prevent her seeking the same redress as Mabel Lipscomb? He wondered if the same thought were in his cousin's mind. They began to talk of other things, books, pictures, plays, and one by one the closed doors opened, and light was led into the dusty, shuddered places. Claire's mind was neither keen nor deep. Ralph, in the past, had smiled at her rash arduous and vague intensities. But she had his own range of illusions and a great gift of momentary understanding, and he had so long beaten his thoughts out against a blank wall of incomprehension that her sympathy seemed full of insight. She began by a question about his writing, but the subject was distasteful to him, and he turned to talk to a new book in which he had been interested. She knew enough of it to slip in the right word here and there, and thence they wandered on to kindred topics. Under the warmth of her attention his torpid ideas awoke again, and his eyes took their filled pleasure as she leaned forward, her thin brown hands clasped on her knees, and her eager face reflecting all his feelings. There was a moment when the two currents of sensation were merged in one, and he began to feel confusedly that he was young, and she was kind, and there was nothing he would like better than to go on sitting there, not much caring what she said or how he answered, if only she would let him look at her, and give him one of her thin brown hands to hold. Then the corkscrew in the back of his head dug into him again with a deeper thrust, and she seemed suddenly to recede to a greater distance and be divided from him by a fog of pain. The fog lifted after a minute, but it left him clearly remote from her, from the cool room with its scents and shadows, and from all the objects which, a moment before, had so sharply impinged upon his senses. It was as though he looked at it all through a rain-blurred pain against which his hand would strike if he held it out to her. That impression passed also, and he found himself thinking how tired he was, and how little anything mattered. He recalled the unfinished piece of work on his desk, and for a moment had the odd illusion that it was there before him. She exclaimed, but are you going? And her exclamation made him aware that he'd left his seat and was standing in front of her. He fancied there was some kind of appeal in her brown eyes, but she was so dim and far off that he couldn't be sure of what she wanted, and the next moment he found himself shaking hands with her, and heard her saying something kind and cold about it having been so nice to see him. Halfway up the stairs, little Paul, shining and rosy from supper, lurked in ambush for his evening game. Ralph was fond of stooping down to let the boy climb up his outstretched arms to his shoulders, but today, as he did so, Paul's hug seemed to crush him in a vice, and the shout of welcome that accompanied it wrecked his ears like an explosion of steam whistles. The queer distance between himself and the rest of the world was annihilated again. Everything stared and glared and clutched him. He tried to turn away his face from the child's hot kisses, and as he did so, he caught sight of a mauve envelope among the hats and sticks on the whole table. Instantly he paused Paul over to his nurse, stemmed out a word about being tired, and sprang up the long flights to his study. The pain in his head had stopped, but his hands trembled as he tore open the envelope. Within it was a second letter, bearing a French stamp, and a dress to himself. It looked like a business communication and had apparently been sent to Andine's Hotel in Paris and forwarded to him by her hand. Another bill, he reflected grimly, as he threw it aside and felt in the outer envelope for her letter. There was nothing there, and after a first sharp pang of disappointment he picked up the enclosure and opened it. Inside was a litographed circular, headed confidential, and bearing the Paris address of a firm of private detectives who undertook in conditions of attested and inviolable discretion to investigate delicate situations, look up doubtful antecedents, and furnish reliable evidence of misconduct, all in the most reasonable terms. For a long time Ralph sat and stared at this document. Then he began to laugh, and tossed it into the scrap basket. After that, with a groan, he dropped his head against the edge of his writing-table. End of Chapter 21 When he woke, the first thing he remembered was the fact of having cried. He could not think how he had come to be such a fool. He hoped to heaven no one had seen him. He supposed he must have been worrying about the unfinished piece of work at the office. Where was it, by the way, he wondered? Why, where he had left at the day before, of course! What a ridiculous thing to worry about! But it seemed to follow him about like a dog. He said to himself that he must get up presently and go down to the office—presently, when he could open his eyes. Just now there was a dead weight on them. He tried one after another in vain. The effort set him weakly trembling, and he wanted to cry again. Nonsense! He must get out of bed. He stretched his arms out, trying to reach something to pull himself up by, but everything slipped away and evaded him. It was like trying to catch at bright short waves. Then suddenly his fingers clasped themselves about something firm and warm. A hand—a hand that gave back his pressure. The relief was inexpressible. He lay still and let the hand hold him, while mentally he went through the motions of getting up and beginning to dress. So indistinct were the boundaries between thought and action, that he really felt himself moving about the room in a queer, disembodied way, as one treads the air and sleep. Then he felt the bed-clothes over him and the pillows under his head. I must get up, he said, and pulled at the hand. It pressed him down again, down into a dim, deep pool of sleep. He lay there for a long time, in a silent blackness far below light and sound. Then he gradually floated to the surface with the buoyancy of a dead body. But his body had never been more alive. Jagged strokes of pain tore through it, hands dragged at it with nails that bit like teeth. They wound thongs about him, bound him, tied weights to him, tried to pull him down with them. But still he floated. Floated, danced on the fiery waves of pain, with barbed light pouring down on him from an airy sky. Charmed intervals of rest, blue sailings on melodious seas, alternated with the anguish. He became a leaf on the air, a feather on a current, a straw on the tide, the spray of the waves spinning itself to sunshine as the wave toppled over into gulfs of blue. He woke on a stony beach, his legs and arms still lashed to his sides, and the thongs cutting into him. But the fierce sky was hidden, and hidden by his own languid lids. He felt the ecstasy of decreasing pain, and courage came to him to open his eyes and look about him. The beach was his own bed. The tempered light lay on familiar things, and someone was moving about in a shadowy way between bed and window. He was thirsty, and someone gave him a drink. His pillow burned, and someone turned the cool side out. His brain was clear enough now for him to understand that he was ill, and to want to talk about it. But his tongue hung in his throat like a clapper and a bell. He must wait till the rope was pulled. So time and life stole back on him, and his thoughts laboured weakly with dim fears. Slowly he cleared away through them, adjusted himself to his strange state, and found out that he was in his own room in his grandfather's house, that alternating with the white-capped faces about him were those of his mother and sister, and that in a few days, if he took his beef tea and didn't fret, Paul would be brought up from Long Island, wither on account of the great heat he had been carried off by Claire Van Degen. No one named Undine to him, and he did not speak of her. But one day as he lay in bed in the summer twilight, he had a vision of a moment, a long way behind him, at the beginning of his illness it must have been, when he had called out for her in his anguish, and someone had said, She's coming, she'll be here next week. Could it be that next week was not yet here? He supposed that illness robbed one of all sense of time, and he lay still as if in ambush, watching his scattered memories come out one by one and join themselves together. If he watched long enough, he was sure he should recognize one that fit into his picture of the day when he had asked for Undine. And at length the face came out of the twilight, a freckled face, benevolently bent over him under a starched cap. He had not seen the face for a long time, but suddenly it took shape and fitted itself into the picture. Laura Fairford sat nearby, a book on her knee, at the sound of his voice she looked up. What was the name of the first nurse? The first? The one that went away. Oh! Miss Hicks, you mean! How long is it since she went? It must be three weeks. She had another case. He thought this over carefully, then he spoke again. Call on Dean. She made no answer, and he repeated irritably, Why don't you call her? I want to speak to her. Mrs. Fairford laid down her book and came to him. She's not here just now. He dealt with this also, laboriously. You mean she's out. She's not in the house. I mean she hasn't come yet. As she spoke, Ralph felt a sudden strength and hardness in his brain and body. Everything in him became as clear as noon. But it was before Miss Hicks left that you told me you'd sent for her, and that she'd be here the following week, and you say Miss Hicks has been gone three weeks. This was what he had worked out in his head, and what he meant to say to his sister, but something seemed to snap shut in his throat, and he closed his eyes without speaking. Even when Mr. Sprague came to see him, he said nothing. They talked about his illness, about the hot weather, about the rumours that Parmin B. Driscoll was again threatened with indictment, and then Mr. Sprague pulled himself out of his chair and said, I presume you'll call round at the office before you leave the city. Oh yes, as soon as I'm up, Ralph answered. They understood each other. Claire had urged him to come down to Long Island, complete his convalescence there, but he preferred to stay in Washington Square till he should be strong enough for the journey to the Adirondacks, whether Laura had already preceded him with Paul. He did not want to see anyone but his mother and grandfather till his legs could carry him to Mr. Sprague's office. It was an oppressive day in mid-August with the yellow mist of heat in the sky when he at last entered the big office building. Swirls of dust lay on the mosaic floor, and a stale smell of decayed fruit and salt air and steaming asphalt filled the place like a fog. As he shot up in the elevator, someone slapped him on the back, and turning he saw Elmer Moffat at his side, smooth and Rubicon under a new straw hat. Moffat was loudly glad to see him. I haven't laid eyes on you for months, at the old stand still. So am I, he added, as Ralph assented. Hope to see you there again some day. Don't forget it's my turn this time. Glad if I can be any use to you. So long. Ralph's weak bones ached under his handshake. How's Mrs. Marbell? He turned back from his landing to call out. And Ralph answered, Thanks. She's very well. Mr. Sprague sat alone in his murky in her office. The fly blown engraving of Daniel Webster above his head and the congested scrap basket beneath his feet. He looked fagged and sallow. Like the day. Ralph sat down on the other side of the desk. For a moment his throat contracted as it had when he had tried to question his sister. Then he asked, Where's Undine? Mr. Sprague glanced at the calendar that hung from a hat peg on the door. Then he released the masonic emblem from his grasp, drew out his watch, and consulted it critically. If the train's on time, I presume she's somewhere between Chicago and Omaha round about now. Ralph stared at him wondering if the heat had gone to his head. I don't understand. The twentieth centuries generally considered the best route to Dakota. Explain, Mr. Sprague, who pronounced the word Rout. Do you mean to say Undine's in the United States? Mr. Sprague's lower lip groped for the phantom toothpick. Well, let me see. Hasn't Dakota been a state for a year or two now? Oh, God! Ralph cried, pushing his chair back violently and striding across the narrow womb. As he turned, Mr. Sprague stood up and advanced a few steps. He had given up the quest for the toothpick, and his drawn-in lips were no more than a narrow depression in his beard. He stood before Ralph, absolutely shaking the loose change in his trouser pockets. Ralph felt the same hardness and lucidity that had come to him when he had heard his sister's answer. She's gone, you mean—left me, with another man. Mr. Sprague drew himself up with a kind of slouching majesty. My daughter is not that style. I understand Undine thinks that there have been mistakes on both sides. She considers the tie was formed too hastily. I believe desertion is the usual plea in such cases. Ralph stared about him, hardly listening. He did not resent his father-in-law's tone. In a dim way he guessed that Mr. Sprague was suffering hardly less than himself, but nothing was clear to him save the monstrous fact suddenly upheaved in his path. His wife had left him, and the plan for her evasion had been made and executed while he lay helpless. She had seized the opportunity of his illness to keep him in ignorance of her design. The humour of it suddenly struck him, and he laughed. Do you mean to tell me that Undine's divorcing me? I presume that's her plan, Mr. Sprague admitted. For desertion! Ralph pursued, still laughing. His father-in-law hesitated a moment, then he answered, You've always done all you could for my daughter. There wasn't any other plea she could think of. She presumed this would be the most agreeable to your family. It was good of her to think of that. Mr. Sprague's only comment was a sigh. Does she imagine I won't fight it? Ralph broke out with sudden passion. His father-in-law looked at him thoughtfully. I presume you realise it ain't easy to change Undine once she's set on a thing? Perhaps not, but if she really means to apply for a divorce I can make it a little less easy for her to get. That's so, Mr. Sprague conceded. He turned back to his revolving chair, and seating himself in it began to drum on the desk with cigar-stained fingers. And by God I will! Ralph thundered. Anger was the only emotion in him now. He had been fooled, cheated, made amok of, but the score was not settled yet. He turned back and stood before Mr. Sprague. I suppose she's gone with Van Degen? My daughter's gone alone, sir. I saw her off at the station. I understood she was to join a lady-friend. At every point Ralph felt his hold slip off the surface of his father-in-law's impervious fatalism. Does she suppose Van Degen's going to marry her? Undine didn't mention her future plans to me. After a moment Mr. Sprague appended. If she had I should have declined to discuss them with her. Ralph looked at him curiously, perceiving that he intended in this negative way to imply his disapproval of his daughter's course. I shall fight it! I shall fight it! the young man cried again. You may tell her I shall fight it to the end. Mr. Sprague pressed the nib of his pen against the dust-coated ink-stand. I suppose you would have to engage a lawyer. She'll know it that way, Hiramart. She'll know it. You may count on that. Ralph had begun to laugh again. Suddenly he heard his own laugh and it pulled him up. What was he laughing about? What was he talking about? The thing was to act, to hold his tongue, and act. There was no use uttering windy threats to this broken-spirited old man. A fury of action burned in Ralph, pouring light into his mind and strengthened to his muscles. He caught up his hat and turned to the door. As he opened it, Mr. Sprague rose again and came forward with his slow, shambling step. He laid his hand on Ralph's arm. I had it given anything—anything short of my girl herself, not to have this happen to you, Ralph Marvell. Thank you, sir," said Ralph. They looked at each other for a moment. Then Mr. Sprague added, "'But it has happened, you know. Bear that in mind. Nothing you can do will change it. Time it again. I've found that a good thing to remember.'" End of CHAPTER XXII CHAPTER XXIII In the Adirondacks Ralph Marvell sat day after day on the balcony of his little house above the lake, staring at the great white cloud reflections in the water and at the dark line of trees that closed them in. Now and then he got into the canoe and paddled himself through a winding chain of ponds to some lonely clearing in the forest, and there he lay on his back in the pine needles and watched the great clouds form and dissolve themselves above his head. All his past life seemed to be symbolized by the building up and breaking down of those fluctuating shapes, which incalculable wind currents perpetually shifted and remodeled or swept from the zenith like a pinch of dust. His sister told him that he looked well—better than he had in years—and there were moments when his listlessness, his stony insensibility to the small pricks and frictions of daily life, might have passed for the serenity of recovered health. There was no one with whom he could speak of Andine. His family had thrown over the whole subject a pall of silence which even Laura Fairford shrank from raising. As for his mother, Ralph had seen at once that the idea of talking over the situation was positively frightening to her. There was no provision for such emergencies in the moral order of Washington Square. The affair was a scandal, and it was not in the stagnant tradition to acknowledge the existence of scandals. Ralph recalled a dim memory of his childhood, the tale of a misguided friend of his mother's who had left her husband for a more congenial companion, and who, years later, returning ill and friendless to New York, had appealed for sympathy to Mrs. Marvell. The latter had not refused to give it, but she had put on her black cashmere and two veils when she went to see her unhappy friend, and had never mentioned these errands of mercy to her husband. Ralph suspected that the constraint shown by his mother and sister was partly due to their having but a dim and confused view of what had happened. In their vocabulary the word divorce was wrapped in such a dark veil of innuendo as no lady-like hand would care to lift. They had not reached the point of differentiating divorces, but classed them indistinctively as disgraceful incidents in which the woman was always to blame. But the man, though her innocent victim, was yet inevitably contaminated. The time involved in the proceedings was viewed as a penitential season during which it behooved the family of the persons concerned to behave as if they were dead, yet any open allusion to the reason for adopting such an attitude would have been regarded as the height of indelicacy. Mr. Dagonet's notion of the case was almost as remote from reality. All he asked was that his grandson should thrash somebody, and he could not be made to understand that the modern drama of divorce is sometimes cast without a lovelace. You might as well tell me there was nobody but Adam in the garden when Eve picked the apple. You say your wife was discontented. No woman ever knows she's discontented till some man tells her so. My God! I've seen smash-ups before now, but I never yet saw a marriage dissolved like a business partnership—divorce without a lover. Why, it's—it's as unnatural as getting drunk on lemonade!" After this first explosion Mr. Dagonet also became silent, and Ralph perceived that what annoyed him most was the fact of the scandals not being one in any gentlemanly sense of the word. It was like some nasty business mess, about which Mr. Dagonet couldn't pretend to have an opinion, since such things didn't happen to men of his kind. That such a thing should have happened to his only grandson was probably the bitterest experience of his pleasantly uneventful life, and it added a touch of irony to Ralph's unhappiness to know how little, in the whole affair, he was cutting the figure Mr. Dagonet expected him to cut. At first he had shaped under the taciturnity surrounding him, had passionately longed to cry out his humiliation, his rebellion, his despair. Then he began to feel the tonic effect of silence, and the next stage was reached when it became clear to him that there was nothing to say. There were thoughts and thoughts. They bubbled up perpetually from the black springs of his hidden misery. They stole on him in the darkness of night. They blotted out the light of day. But when it came to putting them into words and applying them to the external facts of the case, they seemed totally unrelated to it. One more white and sun-touched glory had gone from his sky. But there seemed no way of connecting that with such practical issues as his being called on to decide whether Paul was to be put in knickerbockers or trousers, and whether he should go back to Washington Square for the winter or hire a small house for himself and his son. The latter question was ultimately decided by his remaining under his grandfather's roof. November found him back in the office again, in fairly good health, with an outer skin of indifference slowly forming over his lacerated soul. There had been a hard minute to live through when he came back to his old brown room in Washington Square. The walls and tables were covered with photographs of Undine, effigies of all shapes and sizes, expressing every possible sentiment dear to the photographic tradition. Ralph had gathered them all up when he had moved from West End Avenue after Undine's departure for Europe, and they throned over his other possessions as her image had throned over his future, the night he had sat in that very room and dreamed of soaring up with her into the blue. It was impossible to go on living with her photographs about him, and one evening, going up to his room after dinner, he began to unhang them from the walls and to gather them up from book-shelves and mantel-piece and tables. Then he looked about for some place in which to hide them. There were drawers under his bookcases, but they were full of old discarded things, and even if he emptied the drawers, the photographs in their heavy frames were almost all too large to fit into them. He turned next to the top shelf of his cupboard. But here the nurse had stored Paul's old toys, his sand-pales, shovels, and croquet-box. Every corner was packed with the vein impedimenta of living, and the mere thought of clearing a space in the chaos was too great an effort. He began to replace the pictures one by one, and the last was still in his hand when he heard his sister's voice outside. He hurriedly put the portrait back in its usual place on his writing-table, and Mrs. Fairford, who had been dining in Washington Square, and had come up to bid him good-night, flung her arms about him in a quick embrace and went down to her carriage. The next afternoon when he came home from the office, he did not at first see any change in his room, but when he had lit his pipe and thrown himself into his arm-chair, he noticed that the photograph of his wife's picture by Popple no longer faced him from the mantelpiece. He turned to his writing-table, but her image had vanished from there, too. Then his eye, making the circuit of the walls, perceived that they also had been stripped. Not a single photograph of Undine was left. Yet so adroitly had the work of elimination been done, so ingeniously the remaining objects readjusted that the change attracted no attention. Ralf was angry, sore, ashamed. He felt as if Laura, whose hand he instantly detected, had taken a cruel pleasure in her work, and for an instant he hated her for it. Then a sense of relief stole over him. He was glad he could look about him without meeting Undine's eyes, and he understood that what had been done to his room he must do to his memory and his imagination. He must so readjust his mind that, whichever way he turned his thoughts, her face should no longer confront him. But that was a task that Laura could not perform for him. A task to be accomplished only by the hard, continuous tension of his will. With the setting in of the mood of silence all desire to fight his wife's suit died out. The idea of touching publicly on anything that had passed between himself and Undine had become unthinkable. Insensibly he had been subdued to the point of view about him, and the idea of calling on the law to repair his shattered happiness struck him as even more grotesque than it was degrading. Nevertheless some contradictory impulse of his divided spirit made him resent, on the part of his mother and sister, a too ready acceptance of his attitude. There were moments when their tacit assumption that his wife was banished and forgotten irritated him like the hushed tread of sympathizers about the bed of an invalid who will not admit that he suffers. His irritation was aggravated by the discovery that Mrs. Marvell and Laura had already begun to treat Paul as if he were an orphan. One day, coming unnoticed into the nursery, Ralph heard the boy ask when his mother was coming back, and Mrs. Fairford, who was with him, she's not coming back, dearest, and you're not to speak of her to father. Ralph, when the boy was out of hearing, rebuked his sister for her answer. I don't want you to talk of his mother as if she were dead. I don't want you to forbid Paul to speak of her." Laura, though usually so yielding, defended herself. What's the use of encouraging him to speak of her when he's never to see her? The sooner he forgets her the better. Ralph pondered. Later, if she asks to see him, I shan't refuse. Mrs. Fairford pressed her lips together to check the answer. She never will. Ralph heard it, nevertheless, and let it pass. Nothing gave him so profound a sense of estrangement from his former life as the conviction that his sister was probably right. He did not really believe that Andine would ever ask to see her boy, but if she did he was determined not to refuse her request. Time wore on, the Christmas holidays came and went, and the winter continued to grind out the weary measure of its days. Toward the end of January, Ralph received a registered letter addressed to him at his office, and bearing in the corner of the envelope the names of a firm of Sioux Falls attorneys. He instantly defined that it contained the legal notification of his wife's application for divorce, and as he wrote his name in the postman's book he smiled grimly at the thought that the stroke of his pen was doubtless signing her release. He opened the letter, found it to be what he had expected, and locked it away in his desk without mentioning the matter to any one. He supposed that with the putting away of this document he was thrusting the whole subject out of sight, but not more than a fortnight later, as he sat in the subway on his way downtown, his eye was caught by his own name on the first page of the heavily headlined paper which the unshaved occupant of the next seat held between grimy fists. The blood rushed to Ralph's forehead as he looked over the man's arm and read, Society leader gets decree, and beneath it the subordinate clause says husband too absorbed in business to make home happy. For weeks afterward, wherever he went, he felt that blush upon his forehead. For the first time in his life the coarse fingering of public curiosity had touched the secret places of his soul, and nothing that had gone before seemed as humiliating as this trivial comment on his tragedy. The paragraph continued on its way through the press, and whenever he took up a newspaper he seemed to come upon it, slightly modified, variously developed, but always reverting with a kind of unctuous irony to his financial preoccupations and his wife's consequent loneliness. The phrase was even taken up by the paragraph writer, called forth excited letters from similarly situated victims, was commented on in humorous editorials, and served as a text for pulpit denunciations of the growing craze for wealth. And finally, at his dentist's, Ralph came across it in a family weekly, as one of the heart problems propounded to subscribers, with a gramophone, a straight front corset, and a vanity box among the prizes offered for its solution.

If you'd only had the sense to come straight to me, Undine Sprague, there isn't a tip I couldn't have given you, not one. This speech, in which a faintly contemptuous compassion for her friend's case was blunt with a frankest pride in her own, probably represented the nearest approach to tact that Mrs. Jane J. Rolliver had yet acquired. Undine was impartial enough to note in it a distinct advance on the youthful methods of Indiana Frust that it required a good deal of self-control to take the words to herself with a smile. While they seemed to be laying a visible scarlet welt across the pale face she kept vanishingly turned to her friend, the fact that she must permit herself to be pitied by Indiana Frust gave her the uttermost measure of the depth to which her fortunes had fallen. This abasement was inflicted on her in the staring gold apartment of the Hotel Nouveau Lucs, in which the Rollivers had established themselves on their recent arrival in Paris. The vast drawing room adorned only by two high-shouldered gilt baskets of orchids drooping on their wires reminded Undine of the Louis Suite in which the opening scenes of her own history had been enacted, and the resemblance and the difference were emphasized by the fact that the image of her past self was not inaccurately repeated in the triumphant presence of Indiana Rolliver. There isn't a tip I couldn't have given you, not one, Mrs. Rolliver reproachfully repeated, and all Undine's superiorities and discriminations seemed to shrivel up in the crude blaze of the other solid achievement. There was little comfort at noting for one's private delectation that Indiana spoke of her husband as Mr. Rolliver, that she twang'd a piercing arm, that one of her shoulders was still higher than the other, and that her striking dress was totally unsuited to the hour, the place, and the occasion. She still did, and was, all that Undine had so sedulously learned not to be and to do. But to dwell on these obstacles to her success was but to be more deeply impressed by the fact that she had nevertheless succeeded. Not much more than a year had elapsed since Undine Marvell, sitting in the drawing room of another Parisian hotel, had heard the immense orchestral murmur of Paris rise through the open windows like the ascending movement of her own hopes. The immense murmur still sounded on, deafening and implacable as some elemental force. In the discord in her fate, no more disturbed it than the motorwheels rolling by under the windows were disturbed by the particles of dust that they ground to find her powder as they passed. I could have told you one thing right off, Mrs. Rolliver went on with her ringing energy, and that is to get your divorce first thing. A divorce is always a good thing to have. You never can tell when you may want it. You ought to have attended to that before you even began with Peter Van Degen. Undine listened, irresistibly impressed. Did you? She asked. But Mrs. Rolliver, at this, grew suddenly veiled and sibiline. She wound her big bejeweled hand through her pearls. There were ropes and ropes of them. And leaned back, modestly sinking her lids. I'm here anyhow, she rejoined, with Kierkuumspika in look and tone. Undine, obedient to the challenge, continued to gaze at the pearls. They were real. There was no doubt about that. And so was Indiana's marriage, if she kept out of certain estates. Don't you see, Mrs. Rolliver continued, that having to leave him when you did and rush off to Dakota for six months was... Was giving him too much time to think? And giving it at the wrong time, too? Oh, I see, but what could I do? I'm not an immoral woman. Of course not, dearest. You were merely thoughtless. That's what I meant by saying you ought to have had your divorce ready. A flicker of self-esteem caused Undine to protest. It wouldn't have made any difference. His wife would never have given him up. She's so crazy about him? No, she hates him so. And she hates me, too, because she's in love with my husband. Indiana bounced out of her lounging attitude and struck her hands together with a rattle of rings. In love with your husband? What's the matter then? Why on earth didn't the four of you fix it up together? You don't understand. It was an undoubted relief to be able at last to say that to Indiana. Claire Van Degen thinks the war's wrong or rather awfully vulgar. Vulgar? Indiana flamed. If that isn't just too much. A woman who's in love with another woman's husband? What does she think we find I'd like to know? Having a lover, I suppose, like the women in these nasty French plays? I've told Mr. Oliver I won't go to the theater with him again in Paris. It's too utterly low. And the swell society is just as bad. It's simply rotten. Thank goodness I was brought up in a place where there's some sense of decency left. She looked compassionately at Undine. It was New York that demoralized you, and I don't blame you for it. Out of Apex, you'd have acted different. You never, never would have given way to your feelings before you'd got your divorce. A slow blush rose to Undine's forehead. He seemed so unhappy, she murmured. Oh, I know, said Indiana, in a tone of cold competence. She gave Undine an impatient glance. What was the understanding between you when you left Europe last August to go out to Dakota? Peter was to go to Reno in the autumn so that it wouldn't look too much as if we were acting together. I was to come to Chicago to see him on his way out there. And he never came? No. And he stopped writing? Oh, he never writes. Indiana heaved a deep sigh of intelligence. There's one perfectly clear rule, never let out of your sight a man who doesn't write. I know. That's why I stayed with him those few weeks last summer. Indiana sat thinking her fine, shallow eyes fixed unblinkingly on her friend's embarrassed face. I suppose there isn't anybody else? Anybody? Well, now you've got your divorce. Anybody else that would come in handy for? This was harder to bear than anything that had gone before. Undine could not have borne it if she had not had a purpose. Mr. Van Degen owes it to me. She began with an air of wounded dignity. Yes, yes, I know, but that's just talk. If there is anybody else? I can't imagine what you think of me, Indiana. Indiana, without appearing to resent this challenge, again lost herself in meditation. Well, I'll tell him he's just got to see you. She finally emerged from it to say, Undine gave a quick upward look. This was what she had been waiting for since she had read a few days earlier in the columns of her morning journal that Mr. Peter Van Degen and Mr. and Mrs. James J. Rolliver had been fellow passengers on board the semantic. But she did not betray her expectations by as much as the trim of an eyelash. She knew her friend well enough to pour out to her the expected tribute of surprise. What? Do you mean to say you know him, Indiana? Mercy, yes. He's around here all the time. He crossed on the steamer with us and Mr. Rolliver's taken a fancy to him, Indiana explained, in the tone of the absorbed bride to whom her husband's preferences are the sole criterion. Undine turned in tears, effused gaze on her. Oh, Indiana, if I could only see him again, I know it would be all right. He's awfully, awfully fond of me, but his family have influenced him against me. Oh, I know what that is, Mrs. Rolliver interjected. But perhaps, Undine continued, it would be better if I could meet him first without his knowing beforehand, without your telling him. I love him too much to reproach him, she added nobly. Indiana pondered. It was clear that, though the nobility of the sentiment impressed her, she was disinclined to renounce the idea of taking a more active part in their friend's rehabilitation. But Undine went on, of course you found out by this time that he's just a big spoiled baby. Afterward, when I've seen him, if you'd talk to him, or if you'd only just let him be with you and see how perfectly happy you and Mr. Rolliver are. Indiana seized on this at once. You mean that what he wants is the influence of a home like ours? Yes, yes, I understand. I tell you what I'll do. I'll just ask him around to dine and let you know the day without telling him beforehand that you're coming. Oh, Indiana. Undine held her in a close embrace, and then drew away to say, I'm so glad I found you. You must go round with me everywhere. There are lots of people here I want you to know. Mrs. Rolliver's expression changed from vague sympathy to concentrated interest. I suppose it's awfully gay here. Do you go round a great deal with the American set? Undine hesitated for a fraction of a moment. There are a few of them who are rather jolly, but I particularly want you to meet my friend, the Marquis Roviano. He's from Rome. And a lovely Austrian woman, Baroness Adlshine. Her friend's face was brushed by a shade of distrust. I don't know as I care much about meeting foreigners, she said, indifferently. Undine smiled. It was agreeable at last to be able to give Indiana a point as valuable as any of hers on divorce. Oh, some of them are awfully attractive, and they'll make you meet the Americans. Indiana caught this on the bound. One began to see why she had got on in spite of everything. Of course I'd love to know your friend, she said, kissing Undine, who answered, giving back the kiss. You know there's nothing on earth I wouldn't do for you. Indiana drew back to look at her with a comic grimace under which a shade of anxiety was visible. Well, that's a pretty large order, but there's just one thing you can do, dearest. Pleased to let Mr. Rolliver alone. Mr. Rolliver, my dear, Undine's laugh showed that she took this for unmixed comedy. That's a nice way to remind me that your heaps and heaps better looking than I am. Indiana gave her an acute glance. Millard Bench didn't think so, not even at the very end. Oh, poor Millard. The women's smiles mingled easily over the common reminiscence, and once again on the threshold, Undine unfolded her friend. In the light of the autumn afternoon, she paused and looked at the door of the nouveau luxe and looked aimlessly forth at the brave spectacle in which she seemed no longer to have a stake. Many of her old friends had already returned to Paris. Harvey Shalems, Mae Beringer, Dickie Bowles, and other westward bound nomads lingering on for a glimpse of the autumn theaters and fashions before hurrying back to inaugurate the New York season. A year ago, Undine would have had no difficulty in introducing Indiana Rollover to this group, a group above which her own aspirations already beat an impatient wing. Now her place in it had become too precarious for her to force an entrance for her protectress. Her New York friends were at no pains to conceal from her that, in their opinion, her divorce had been a blunder. Their logic was that of Apex reversed. Since she had not been sure of Van Degen, why in the world, they asked, had she thrown away a position she was sure of? This is Harvey Shalem in particular, had not scrupled to put the question squarely. Shal was awfully taken. He would have introduced you everywhere. I thought you were wild to know smart French people. I thought Harvey and I weren't good enough for you any longer. And now you've done your best to spoil everything. Of course I feel for you tremendously. That's the reason why I'm talking so frankly. You must be horribly depressed. Come and die tonight. Or no, if you don't mind, I'd rather you choose another evening. I'd forgotten that I'd asked the gym to riskles, and it might be uncomfortable for you. In another world, she was still welcome, at first perhaps, even more so than before. A world, namely, to which she had proposed to present Indiana or Oliver. Roviano, Madame Adelshine, and a few of the freer spirits of her old Samarit's band, reappearing in Paris with the clothes of the watering place season, had quickly discovered her and shown keen interest in her liberation. He'd appeared in some mysterious way to make her more available for their purpose. And she found that in the character of the last American divorcee, she was even regarded as eligible to the small and intimate inner circle of their loosely knit association. At first she could not make out what had entitled her to this privilege. An increasing enlightenment produced a revolt of the apex puritanism, which, despite some odd accommodations and compliances, still carried its head so high in her. Undine had been perfectly sincere in telling Indiana or Oliver that she was not an immoral woman, the pleasures for which her sex took such risks had never attracted her. And she did not even crave the excitement of having it thought that they did. She wanted, passionately and persistently, two things which she believed should subsist together in any well-ordered life, amusement and respectability. And despite her surface sophistication, her notion of amusement was hardly less innocent than when she had hung on the plumber's fence with Indiana Frusk. It gave her, therefore, no satisfaction to find herself included among Madame Adelshine's intimates. It embarrassed her to feel that she was expected to be queer and different, to respond to passwords and talk in innuendo, to associate with the equivocal and the subterranean of the ingenuous daylight joys which really satisfied her soul. But the business shrewdness, which was never quite dormant in her, suggested that this was not the moment for such scruples. She must make the best of what she could get and wait her chance of getting something better. Meanwhile, the most practical use to which she could put her shady friends was to flash their authentic nobility in the dazzled eyes of Mrs. Rolliver. With this object in view, she made haste in the fashionable tea room of the Rue de Rivoli to group about Indiana the most titled members of the band. And the felicity of the occasion would have been unbarred had she not suddenly caught sight of Raymond de Cheve sitting on the other side of the room. She had not seen Cheve since her return to Paris. It had seemed preferable for her meeting to chance. And the present chance might have served as well as another but for the fact that among his companions were two or three of the most eminent ladies of the proud quarter beyond the Seine. It was what Undine, in moments of discouragement, characterized as her luck that one of these should be the hated Miss Wincher of Potash Springs who had now become two that Cheve and his compatriots however scandalized at her European companions would be completely indifferent to Mrs. Rolliver's appearance. One gesture of Madame de Trezac's eyeglass would wave Indiana to her place and thus brand the whole party as wrong. All this passed through Undine's mind in the very moment of her noting the change of expression with which Cheve had signaled if their encounter could have occurred in happier conditions it might have had far reaching results. As it was the crowded state of the tea room and the distance between their tables sufficiently excused his restricting his greeting to an eager bow and Undine went home heavy-hearted from this first attempt to reconstruct her past. Her spirits were not lightened by the developments of the next few days. She kept herself well in the foreground of Indiana's life and cultivated toward the rarely visible Rolliver a manner in which impersonal admiration for the statesman was tempered with the politest indifference to the man. Indiana seemed to do justice to her efforts and to be reassured by the result but still there came no hint of a reward. For a time Undine restrained her lips. But one afternoon when she had inducted Indiana into the deepest mysteries of Parisian complexion making the importance of the service and the confidential mood it engendered seemed to warrant a discreet allusion to their bargain. Indiana leaned back among her cushions with an embarrassed laugh oh my dear I've been meaning to tell you it's off I'm afraid the dinner is I mean you see Mr. Van Degen has seen you round with me and the very minute I asked him to come and dine he guessed he guessed and he wouldn't well no he wouldn't I hate to tell you oh Undine threw off a vague laugh since you're intimate enough for him to tell you that he must have told you more told you something to justify his behavior he couldn't even Peter Van Degen couldn't just simply have said to you I won't see her this is Raleigh hesitated visibly troubled to the point of regretting her intervention he did say more Undine insisted he gave you a reason he said you'd know oh how base how base Undine was trembling with one of her little girl rages the storms of destructive fury for which Mr. and Mrs. Sprag had cowered when she was a charming bold and curled cherub but life had administered some of the discipline which her parents had spared her and she pulled herself together with a gasp of pain of course he's been turned against me his wife has the whole of New York behind her and I have no one but I know it would be all right if I could only see him her friend made no answer and Undine pursued with an irrepressible outbreak of her old vehemence Indiana Raleigh if you won't do it for me I'll go straight off to his hotel this very minute I'll wait there in the hall till he sees me Indiana lifted a protesting hand don't Undine, not that why not well I wouldn't that's all you wouldn't, why wouldn't you you must have a reason Undine faced her with leveled brows without a reason you can't have changed so utterly since our last talk you were positive enough then that I had a right to make him see me somewhat to her surprise Indiana made no effort to allude the challenge yes I did think so then but I know now that it wouldn't do you the least bit of good have they turned him so completely against me I don't care I know him, I can get him back that's the trouble Indiana shed on her a gaze of cold compassion it's not that anyone has turned him against you it's worse than that what can be you'll hate me if I tell you and you better make him tell me himself I can't, I tried to the trouble is that it was you you did I mean something he found out about you Undine to estrange a spring of anger had to clutch both arms of her chair about me oh fearfully false well I've never even looked at anybody it's nothing of that kind Indiana's mournful head shake seemed to do poor in Undine an unsuspected moral obtuseness it's the way you acted to your own husband I my to Ralph he reproaches me for that Peter van Degen does well for one particular thing he says that the very day you went off with him last year you got a cable from New York telling you to come back at once to Mr. Marvell who was desperately ill how on earth does he know the cry escaped Undine before she could repress it it's true then Indiana exclaimed oh Undine Undine sat speechless and motionless the anger frozen to terror on her lips Mrs. Rollover turned on her the reproachful gaze of the deceived benefactors I didn't believe it when he told me I've never thought of it before you'd even applied for your divorce Undine made no attempt to deny the charge or to defend herself for a moment she was lost in the pursuit of an unceasable clue the explanation of this monstrous last perversity of fate suddenly she rose to her feet with a sick face Marvell must have told him the beasts relieved her to be able to cry it out it was your husband's sister your name was when you didn't answer her cable she cabled Mr. Van Degen to find out where you were and tell you to come straight back Undine stared he never did no doesn't that show you the stories all trumped up Indiana shook her head he said nothing to you about it because he was with you when you received the first cable and you told him it was from your sister-in-law just worrying you as usual to go home and when he asked if there was anything else in it you said there wasn't another thing Undine intently following her caught up this with a spray then he knew it all along he admits that and it made no earthly difference to him at the time she turned almost pictoriously on her friend did he have to explain that I wonder yes Indiana's long anonymity grew almost solemn it came over him gradually he said one day when he wasn't feeling very well he thought to himself would she act like that to me if I was dying and after that he never felt the same to you Indiana lowered her in purple lids men have feelings too even when they're carried away by passion after a pause she added I don't know I can blame him Undine you see you were his ideal end of chapter 24 chapter 25 of the Custom of the Country this is a LibriVox recording all LibriVox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please go to LibriVox.org reading by Mary Rodie The Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton Chapter 25 Undine Marvel for the next few months tasted all the accumulated bitterness of failure after January the drifting hordes of her compatriots had scattered to the four quarters of the globe leaving Paris to resume under its low gray sky its compact or winter personality noting from her more and more deserted corner each least sign of the social revival Undine felt herself as stranded and baffled as after the ineffectual summers of her girlhood she was not without possible alternatives but the sense of what she had lost took the savor from all that was left she might have attached herself to some migratory group winged for Italy but the prospect of travel did not in itself appeal to her and she was doubtful of its social benefit she lacked the adventurous curiosity which seeks its occasion in the unknown and though she could work doggedly for a given object the obstacles to be overcome had to be as distinct as the prize her one desire was to get back an equivalent of the precise value she had lost using to be Ralph Marvel's wife her new visiting card bearing her Christian name in place of her husbands was like the coin of a debased currency testifying to her diminished trading capacity her restricted means her vacant days all the minor irritations of her life were as nothing compared to this sense of a lost advantage even in the narrowed field of a Parisian winter she might have made herself a place in some more or less extra social world but her experiments in this line gave her no pleasure proportion to the possible derogation she feared to be associated with the wrong people and scented a shade of disrespect in every amicable advance the more pressing attentions of one or two men she had formally known filled her with a glow of outraged pride and for the first time in her life she felt that even solitude might be preferable to certain kinds of society since ill health was the most plausible pretext for seclusion it was almost a relief to find that she was really growing nervous and sleeping badly the doctor she summoned advised her trying a small quiet place on the shore not too near the sea and tither in the early days of December she transported herself with her maid and an omnibus load of luggage the place disconcerted her by being really small and quiet and for a few days she struggled against the desire for flight she had never before known a world as colorless and negative as that of a bright hotel where everybody went to bed at nine and donkey rides over stony hills were the only alternative to slow drives along dusty roads many of the dwellers in this temple of repose found even these exercises too stimulating and preferred to sit for hours under the palms in the garden playing patience embroidering or reading odd of taughnets andine driven by despair to an inspection of the hotel bookshelves discovered that scarcely any work they contained was complete but this did not seem to trouble the readers who continued to feed their leisure with mutilated fiction from which they occasionally raised their eyes to glance mistrustfully at the new arrival sweeping the garden gravel with her draperies the inmates of the hotel were of different nationalities but their racial differences were leveled by the stamp of a common mediocrity all differences of tongue of custom of physiognomy disappeared in this deep community of insignificance which was like some secret bond with the manifold signs and passwords of its ignorances exceptions it was not the heterogeneous mediocrity of the American summer hotel where the lack of any standard is the nearest approach to a tie but an organized codified dullness in conscious possession of its rights and strong in the voluntary ignorance of any others it took Undine a long time to accustom herself to such an atmosphere and meanwhile she fretted fumed and flaunted or abandoned herself to long periods of fruitless brooding sometimes a flame of anger shut up in her dismally illuminating the path she had traveled and the blank wall to which it led at other moments past and present were enveloped in a dull fog of rancor which distorted and faded even the image she presented in her morning mirror there were days when every young face she saw left in her a taste of poison but when she compared herself with the specimens of her sex who plied their languid industries under the palms or looked away as she passed them in the hall or staircase her spirits rose and she rang for her maid and dressed herself in her newest and vividest these were unprofitable triumphs however she never made one of her attacks on the organized disapproval of the community without feeling she had lost ground by it and the next day she would lie in bed and send down capricious orders for food which her maid would presently remove untouched with instructions to transmit her complaints to the landlord sometimes the events of the past year ceaselessly revolving through her brain became no longer a subject for criticism or justification but simply a series of pictures monotonously unrolled hour by hour in such moods she relived the incidents of her flight with Peter Van Degen the part of her career that since it had proved a failure seemed least like herself and most difficult to justify she had gone away with him and had lived with him for two months she, Undeen Marble to whom respectability was the breath of life to whom such follies had always been unintelligible and therefore inexcusable she had done this incredible thing and she had done it from a motive that seemed as clear as logical as free from the distorting mists of sentimentality as any of her father's financial enterprises it had been a bold move but it had been as carefully calculated as the happiest Wall Street stroke she had gone away with Peter because after the decisive scene in which she had put her power to the test to yield to him seemed to be the most notorious means of victory even to her practical intelligence it was clear that an immediate dash to Dakota might look too calculated and she had preserved herself respect by telling herself that she was really his wife and in no way to blame if the law delayed to ratify the bond she was still persuaded of the justness of her reasoning out of account her life with Van Degen had taught her many things the two had wandered from place to place spending a great deal of money always more and more money for the first time in her life she had been able to buy everything she wanted for a while this had kept her amused and busy but presently she began to perceive that her companions were as famous hers she saw that he had always meant it to be an unavout tie screened by Mrs. Shellam's companionship and Claire's careless tolerance and that on those terms he would have been ready to shed on their adventure the brightest blaze of notoriety but since Undine had insisted on being carried off like a sentimental school girl he meant to shroud the affair in concealing their relation as she was bent on proclaiming it in the powerful novels which Popple was fond of lending her she had met with increasing frequency the type of heroine who scorns to love clandestinely and proclaims the sanctity of passion and the moral duty of obeying its call Undine had been struck by these arguments as justifying and even ennobling force and had let Peter understand that she had been actuated by the highest motives in openly associating her life with his but he had opposed a placid insensibility to these illusions and had persisted in treating her as though their journey were the kind of escapade that a man of the world is bound to hide she had expected him to take her to all the showy places where couples like themselves are relieved from a too sustained contemplation of nature by the distractions of the restaurant and the gaming table but he had carried her from one obscure corner of Europe to another shunning fashionable hotels and crowded watering places and displaying an ingenuity in the discovery of the unvisited and the out of season that gave their journey an odd resemblance to her melancholy wedding tour she had never for a moment ceased to remember that the Dakota Divorce Court was the objective point of this later honeymoon and her illusions to the fact were as frequent as prudence permitted Peter seemed in no way disturbed by them he responded with expressions of increasing tenderness or the purchase of another piece of jewelry and though Undine could not remember his ever voluntarily bringing the subject of their marriage he did not shrink from her recurring mention of it he seemed merely too steeped in present well-being to think of the future and she ascribed this to the fact that his faculty of enjoyment could not project itself beyond the moment her business was to make the last came he should be conscious of a void to be bridged over as rapidly as possible and when she thought this point had been reached she packed her trunks and started for Dakota the next picture to follow was that of a dull months in the Western Divorce Town where to escape loneliness and devoid comment she had cast in her lot with Mabel Lipscomb who had lately arrived there and Undine at the outset had been sorry for the friend whose new venture seemed likely to result so much less brilliantly than her own but compassion had been replaced by irritation as Mabel's unpruned vulgarities her enormous encroaching satisfaction with herself and her surroundings began to pervade every corner of their provisional household Undine during the first months of her exile had been sustained by the fullest confidence in her future when she had parted from Mandigan she had felt sure he meant to marry her and the fact that Mrs. Lipscomb was fortified by no similar hope made her easier to bear with Undine was almost ashamed that the unrued Mabel should be the witness of her own felicity and planned to send her off to Denver when Peter should announce his arrival but the weeks passed and Peter did not come Mabel on the whole behaved well in this contingency Undine in her first exultation had confided all her hopes and plans to her friend but Mabel took no undue advantage of the confidence she was even tactful in her loud, fond, clumsy way with a tact that insistently loomed and buzzed about its victim's head but one day she mentioned that she had asked to dinner a gentleman from Little Rock who had come to Dakota with the same object as themselves and whose acquaintance she had made through her lawyer the gentleman from Little Rock came to Dine and within a week Undine understood that Mabel's future was assured if Mandigan had been at hand Undine would have smiled with him at poor Mabel's infatuation and her suitor's crudeness but Mandigan was not there he made no sign he sent no excuse he simply continued to absent himself and it was Undine who in due course had to make way for Mrs. Lipscomb's caller and sit upstairs with a novel while the drawing-room below was given up to the enacting of an actual love story even then even to the end Undine had to admit that Mabel had behaved beautifully but it was comparatively easy to behave beautifully when one is getting what one wants and when someone else who has not always been altogether kind is not the net result of Mrs. Lipscomb's magnanimity was that when on the day of parting she drew Undine to her bosom and on which her new engagement ring blazed Undine hated her as she hated everything else connected with her vain exile in the wilderness End of Chapter 25

Aloha and Mabuhay. Welcome to another edition of our Pinoy Power Hawaii here on Think Tech Hawaii. But first I want to thank the wonderful staff of Think Tech Hawaii for allowing us the opportunity to come into your homes on Tuesdays live at 12 noon. Today we have a very very special guest, someone that makes everyone happy whenever they need to get away to a special place. He doesn't need any formal introduction because he is well known. Last Saturday he was one of our empowered awardees for making a positive change and of course uplifting everyone's lives. They are also a gold sponsor of our radio, Pinoy Power Radio. It is a pleasure to welcome sales and promotions manager of Vacations Hawaii, Mr. Kevin Kanashiro. Thank you. Welcome to our show. Pleasure. First of all, again, we want to express our gratitude, Kevin, and to the entire staff of Vacations Hawaii for always taking care of our wonderful listeners and our clients. And of course the Filipino community is a large part of our market. We send about 2,000 people a week to Las Vegas, Hawaii residents. We charter four packages per week on our charter flights, but we have a full service travel agency, so we send tons of people on Hawaiian Airlines, American Delta, United Alaska Airlines. And our Filipino supporters have been supporting us, so it's a pleasure to support the Filipino community. That is so wonderful to hear. We are so always excited about promoting Vacations Hawaii on our radio because when they hear the magic number, the magic affordable number, they are always wanting to book. Yeah. It's a great deal. Tell us about the specials going on so they can call and take advantage. Well of course, one of the biggest questions I always get is why do you think Vegas is the number one destination for the Hawaii traveler? And some people would say there's a lot of Asians in Hawaii, and the concept of luck goes with gambling, and it's a fun thing. But I really think California Hotel and Vacations Hawaii charter packages are probably the number one reason. It's literally cheaper for Hawaii residents to go to Las Vegas than to even go to an outer island. We always have our 699 specials, which includes round trip air from Hawaii to Las Vegas, your four or five nights hotel, three meals daily, and of course the transfers to and from the airport in Las Vegas. It's truly the most economical package price for Hawaii travelers. And of course Vegas is so different than Hawaii with all the lights and shows, restaurants, amusements. It's very popular. Yes. It is considered the ninth island as a matter of fact. Affectionately known as the ninth island and appropriately as well. It is my favorite destination. In fact, I've called it Timbuktu, because I don't want to mention Vegas sometimes. I just want to go away to a quiet place, but you can't do that in Las Vegas. There's quiet places in Vegas. You've got your spas, and there's so many beautiful natural places right around, you know, Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon and the Red Rock canyons, a lot of beautiful natural things to see around Vegas as well. Yes. Okay. Let's continue our conversation. Tell us a little bit about Kevin Canashiro. How did you get started? And as young as you look, you look like you just turned 21. You're sweet. Ah. When we mentioned vacation Hawaii, it's Kevin Canashiro, the sales and promotions manager. Well, it's kind of a funny story, because back in 1984, 34 years ago, I was going to Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego, which was our church university. So I was predestined from birth to go there. But back in 1984, I was just back in Hawaii for summer break. I was only supposed to be here just for that summer. And my buddy Bill Smith, who owned Vacations Hawaii before Boyd Gaming bought us, he offered me a summer job. And during that summer, we took on a huge client, American Airlines. We started doing all their inbound operations for the thousands of people they flew into Hawaii from all the ground handling. And since we got such a huge account, I forfeited going back to San Diego for school. It's been a fun ride. You know, shortly after that, we started doing groups to Tahiti and Las Vegas and Disneyland, San Francisco. Those were real dominant travel destinations back in the 80s. And the rest is history. The rest is history. Then, of course, in the 95 Boyd Gaming bought Vacations Hawaii to start charter service from Hawaii to Las Vegas to make it economical for our Hawaii customers to get to Las Vegas. How exciting. It was fun. And you came with a package. That's the true reason Boyd Gaming bought Vacations Hawaii so they could have that ability to start chartering flights just for Boyd Gaming customers. And now I'm going to get to the California Hotel. And of course, if you know any of the history of Sam Boyd and the California Hotel back in the 70s, he just bought the California Hotel when it was in a foreclosure. It's a rags to riches story. He was an attorney. He lived in Hawaii for a while and went to Vegas. Just a few bucks in his pocket started working, making some money in some casinos, decided to buy California Hotel in a foreclosure, struck gold. He was so innovative and progressive. He was one of the first casinos to start having female blackjack dealers. Back in the 70s, he would offer people free hotel, free meals to come into the California Hotel. And people back then thought, oh, you're crazy. You're going to go out of business. And of course, that's a model for every major casino now. They give all qualified players free meals and free hotel stay. So he created the mold. He created the mold. He used to bribe bus drivers from Arizona and California that brought bus loads of people to Las Vegas to stop at the California Hotel first. And of course, a few years later, he bought the Fremont Hotel in a foreclosure than the Stardust Hotel. And less than 50 years later, it's a multi-billion-dollar corporation, almost 30 properties across the country, one of the leading gaming corporations in America, so pretty exciting. What a wonderful legacy that Sam Boyd had started. And it's not just about making money. It's also about sharing his blessings with others. That's one great thing with the Boyd gaming family. Sam Boyd passed away in the 90s, but his son Bill Boyd is now one of our top CEOs and such a generous giving family. And of course, we just did our $450,000 UH Athletics donation. And we actually did it at this past Sunday's volleyball game. It was very exciting. And of course, he supports so many other Hawaii causes as well as other causes all across the country now that he has so many properties across the country. But such a generous family. Yes. We are also benefactors of his generosity. You've been supporting us for so many years now, and you've been a part of our big celebration. We celebrated our 13th anniversary. And this is why you are part of our empowerment, Kevin. I should have brought my sash. Is that the first empowered sash that you've ever gotten? I got an empowered sash at Pigella on Saturday, so that was very fun. So we want to personally thank you for helping the six school districts. And I need to mention that they are Cabeza, which has three school districts in Ilocos, and also Amarosa, that's a Paya Mangato in Santa Rosa. And that's the school that I attended up to nine years old when I finally came to Hawaii to live the American dream. Oh, nice. In addition to that, there are 19 orphanage that lives in the St. Joseph orphanage, which will also benefit from your monthly support for our radio and also your generous donation. Is that in the Philippines? In the Philippines, in Ilocos, Norte, so your generosity is shared throughout the world. Wonderful. And that's part of our empowerment. Excellent. Yes. Back to talking about the wonderful packages that Vacations Hawaii has to offer. And tell us, what do you enjoy most about your job? And it seems like it gives you young forever. I do joke that I have the best job in the world. I live in paradise, live in Hawaii, and get to promote the number one destination, Las Vegas, and my favorite place to visit. You know, doing promotions and marketing for Las Vegas here in Hawaii, there's so many events and with so many customers that go with us four, five, six times, seven times a year. We have such dedicated customers, and it's all about going somewhere and having fun. And hey, yeah, our company's called Gaming. It's a game. It's fun. It's a game. And of course, through the years, we've had so many million-dollar winners. And tell us about some of them, because I know that Lady from Moloka'i. Moloka'i. Yes. Yeah. In fact, Jake Shimabukuro's grandmother, back in early 2000s, I think it was an $8.9 million jackpot at the Fremont, and that was pretty exciting. But our very first million-dollar winner back in 95 was Alex Ayers from Waipahu. And he played Kino, and it was his very first bet of his trip. He had just checked into the hotel. His Kino numbers, he picked all his kids' ages. And would you believe he got all numbers correct and walked away with a million dollars? So that was pretty exciting. And actually, Waipahu's done pretty good for us. Back in, in fact, it was 2008, Jessica, 24 years old, also from Waipahu. Her first visit to Vegas, she was playing a slot machine there at the California Hotel. And four spins. She played four spins and lined up the progressives and walked away with $2.4 million. So awesome. 24 years old. Yes. 2.4 million. Life-changing. Yeah. As they say in the slot machines, one, one pool could change your life. Yes. And I believe in beginner's luck, right? That is so true. In fact, just last month, we had, as many Hawaii families do, they took their daughter to Las Vegas for her 21st birthday. Yes. That's a common occurrence. And right before midnight, before she was turning 21, her uncle gave her just a $3 Kino scratch card. She picked her birthday numbers, and she was a soccer player. So she picked her soccer number, and she got all the numbers right. That was on a $3 bet, I believe. And so she walked away with $1,000, I think $3,000, so. Not bet for a $3 bet. For your very first legal 21-year-old bet in Vegas, that's the way to do it. That's the way to get you hooked, too. It is. It's funny. Gaming Corporation for almost 30-plus years. Are you dating yourself, Kevin? I actually didn't really get into gambling until about seven or eight years ago. What I like to say is, once you get a tax form win, which is $1,200 or more, it kind of gets you. It's like, oh my goodness, $3 and $1,200. Yay. That's fun. Wow. It can change your life. It can. Yeah. I know that there are so many different places to go to. There are different attractions, and many shows to see. It's not just gambling, but it's also a family destination now. Oh, definitely. And lots of rides and lots of casinos, and of course, you can go to the surrounding areas if you want to get some nature and get away from the bright lights of Las Vegas Strip and just the Bellagio Fountain Show. So many amusements in so many of the casinos, Rida Gondola at the Venetian, Pirate Ships at the Mirage, or the Treasure Island. I mean, there's just so much to see and do. A long list. Yeah. Well, we're going to come back and talk more about Las Vegas. It's our favorite family destination. You've got Vegas on your mind. Get Vacations Hawaii on the line. We will take a quick break. We'll be right back with sales and promotions manager Mr. Kevin Kanashiro after a short break. And Aloha. My name is Calvin Griffin, the host of Hawaii in Uniform. And every Friday at 11 o'clock here on Think Tech Hawaii, we bring in the latest in what's happening within the military community. And we also invite all of your response to things that's happening here. For those of you who haven't seen the program before, again, we invite your participation. We're here to give information, not disinformation. And we always enjoy response from the public. But join us here, Hawaii in Uniform, Fridays, 11 a.m. here on Think Tech Hawaii. Aloha. Hello. My name is Stephanie Mock. And I'm one of three hosts of Think Tech Hawaii's Hawaii Food and Farmer series. Our other hosts are Matt Johnson and Pamai Weigert. And we talk to those who are in the fields and behind the scenes of our local food system. We talk to farmers, chefs, restaurateurs, and more to learn more about what goes into sustainable agriculture here in Hawaii. We are on a Thursdays at 4 p.m. And we hope we'll see you next time. Welcome back to Pinoy Power Hawaii. Our guest for today is very, very popular, especially if you've got Vegas on your mind, get Vacations Hawaii on the line. He is the Promotions and Sales Manager for Vacations Hawaii, also an empowered, awardy, and very generous, very popular among organizations and other businesses that want to award or reward their workers, their employees with a Vacations Hawaii package. Mr. Kevin Canashiro will do all the work necessary to make your vacation a happy and enjoyable, memorable vacation. Well, with you mentioning that, that's a good segue. You know, there are a lot of companies that take group trips to Las Vegas. And I think it is literally cheaper for them to take them to Vegas than to go to Maui. So they're like, yeah, let's just take our office to Vegas. And those are fun incentives. And of course, we just finished our $3 million renovations in our ballrooms at the California Hotel. It looks great. Raised the ceilings, beautiful chandeliers, and they haven't raised the menu prices. So already, that's a deal in itself. Banquet space in Vegas is so much cheaper than Hawaii. So you could really, as a company, do a fantastic, impressive trip to Vegas and anchor in keeping those in place. That's right. Great. You get away. It's also a wonderful incentive. You know, when companies mention, oh, if you are the top seller for this month, you're going to get a free trip to Vegas. You get a free trip to Vegas. Tons of companies do that. Yeah. Yes. And it gets everybody going. They get very, very competitive, and it works. So it's an advantage to you as well as the company promoting you. Oh, yeah, definitely. So yeah, we appreciate all of the business. Thank you so much. And of course, shows. People always love to go to Vegas for shows. And any weekend, any time of the year, there's tons. Just this weekend, we've got NASCAR races. The middleweight world championship boxing finals are this weekend. And next weekend, you've got the giant I Heart Media concerts, as well as the Life is Beautiful Festival, which is right downtown Vegas. So it's just a few blocks from our Fremont Main Street and California Hotel property, which this festival celebrates music, arts. They paint murals all over downtown Vegas, just giant on the sides of buildings. It's pretty amazing what they come up with. Yeah. I'm just amazed. I mean, I go to Vegas all the time. That's how I earned my first-class upgrade. Yes. But tell us what's happening in October. Why is it that October is so popular? You know, people, October is always our most popular month. People are always shocked that, you know, oh, October's already sold out in August. What's going on? Yeah. But I think the reason October is so popular is, number one, it's considered one of the best weather months of the year for Las Vegas. Not too cold, not too hot. Perfect temperature. There's a lot of large expos and events in October, tons of reunions in October. But my thinking is a lot of our frequent travelers that go four, five, six times a year, I think they get to September, August, they're like, oh, wow, it's almost New Year's and Thanksgiving and Christmas. I want to go to Vegas one more time. So October is the month. October, they're like, this is our last chance before the holidays. Plus, everybody gets to dress up because Halloween is right around the corner and they get to be themselves, right? And Halloween is a crazy time in Vegas, right there on Fremont Street. I mean, any night, any weekend night, especially of the year, it's crazy on Fremont Street. But with the costumes and the parade, yeah. Kevin, the saying, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Stays in Vegas, yes. And we get to hang loose. Do you agree with that? I mean, loose in Vegas is kind of crazy, for sure. So what is your favorite thing to do? Like give us some of your secret tips when, you know, there are times when I'm out of money because I don't access it, yes, exactly. And I need to kill time or do something. What are some of the things that we can do for free and yet still enjoyable? The number one things, of course, our Fremont Street experience is any night of the week is a party, three live main stages with live music. It's a party going on every night in Vegas. And of course, excuse me, the California Hotel, we're just one block away from Fremont Street. If you're at Fremont Hotel, you're right on Fremont Street. Other things I'd like to recommend is the Bellagio Fountains. Fountains are so impressive and beautiful, a different show every 15 minutes. The lighting is different. The lighting is good. So there are so many things that we can do that doesn't cost us any money. And yet you're going to find a very enjoyable and rewarding, fulfilling experience. Yes. And there are some things that cost a little money that I recommend. The High Roller Ferris Wheel is one of those things. Yes. There are many, many things that you can take advantage of. There are hotels and casinos that offer like free pool and their machines that doesn't cost you anything. But they try to get you to come in and see what's going on in their property. And this is a great way for you to walk in the door and see what they have to offer. And like I said, October, November, and December, not too many people because people like to stay at home and spend Christmas at home. But the weeks leading up to Christmas and even Thanksgiving is a busy time, especially for October. Especially October. Sometimes right before the holidays it slows down a little bit. People are thinking of family things. Yeah. So let's look over our list, Kevin, and maybe take a little breather. Some of the headliners, Bruno Mars is another popular star that plays at the, is it Planet Hollywood? Well, he actually doesn't have a residency, but he's rang in the new year for the last five years in Las Vegas. Of course, he just did a summer concert in Las Vegas as well, but so many. We're expecting him to come home. And of course, he's coming home to Hawaii in November, so that'll be, I believe it's, no, it's not his first Hawaii concert back since he made it big, is it? It's one of the first. It's one of the biggest anyway. He's since he got really big. Yes. Yes. Multi-millionaire Bruno Mars. Yes, yes. We're proud of him. When he was that little Bruno, little Elvis in Las Vegas, five years old, amazing. All part of Vegas history and now mega superstar. He makes a little, a little bit of bucks now, doesn't he? Bruno Mars. Hawaii boy. That's right. You know, anytime we mention the Las Vegas, people get excited and they can't help but think about going back. Even if they do lose their money, like I do, it doesn't take me long to get over that feeling. Well of course, with the vacation in Hawaii, one of the reasons I think we're so popular, the casinos will send out $100 and $200 travel credits. Yes, the Mahalo checks. Every year, several times a year and say someone's got a $6.99 departure and they've got a $200 travel credit. That brings it down to $4.99. $4.99. If they qualify for a comp room, they're a higher level player. That takes off another $100, $3.99. And of course, if you're a higher player, like our friend Emmy, you get the free first class upgrades, the free luggage. Oh, thank God and thank vacation Hawaii. All those bonuses really, yes. They do add up and then I get $100 free play whenever I check in. Add 100 free play. So by the time you get all that. It's always nice to play on casino money. And then of course, Gold Coast always have that drawing, which I won there also for the seniors Wednesday. Yes, 50 plus. And actually that promotion is at all our board gaming properties. It is now. It is also at California Fremont and Main Street. So if you're 50 plus, play at a Boyd property on a Wednesday. Slide your card in one of the kiosks because they give you random multipliers. And as you know that you can get a random just free cash. Just a lot of bonus money is always fun in a casino. Well, I love the 10 times. So that always rack up the points. Speaking of promotions, you may have seen scratch card promotion at the Main Street Station Hotel. Main Street is famous for that. You can get at 5,000 bonus cash just last month. Hawaii girl, she got her, and all you have to do is get four of a kind in a video poker. She got four threes. So she got her scratch card. She had one of the 5,000 scratch cards. So people always ask me, is there really a 5,000 card? Yes, there is. And Hawaii girl won it last month. So that's exciting. With the two minutes that we have left in our segment, I want to thank again Vacations Hawaii and of course your entire staff that they do a remarkable job in accommodating our clients and our listeners. So make sure that you thank them. I certainly will. Leslie, Kevin, I know that you're going to be around for a long time with Vacations Hawaii. What is it that you would like to be remembered as when they say Vacations Hawaii and Kevin Kanashiro? Wow. Million dollar question. Well when I win the megabucks, I was a very generous person. I think I like to have fun and working with Vegas and our customers that go to Vegas, I get to experience fun through them. And I hope to be remembered for someone that helped other people have fun. That's how I remember you, you know, always with a smile, always cheerful and joyful, you know, you never see Kevin having a frown on his face because he's always running around, especially the Mahalo party. When you have to host so many thousands of people that come and attend, you're the man. You do make Vacations Hawaii. Those Mahalo parties are fun. Every November we do a Mahalo party for our top casino guests on Maui and we do one in Hilo. And then we do two parties in Honolulu because obviously most of our customers live on Oahu. But yeah, getting to say thank you to thousands of our hotel guests, our casino guests every year is really fun. Well thank you again on behalf of Think That Hawaii for allowing us this program, Pinoy Power Hawaii. We come to your home every week and we thank Vacations Hawaii, got Vegas on your mind, get Vacations Hawaii on the line. You may call them direct 591-4777, Vacations Hawaii. Mr. Kevin Kanashiro, Maraming Maraming Salamat Po, God Bless, Mahalo and Mabuhay.

What if I were to tell you that we just got some pretty strong evidence that the Nintendo Switch 2 is a massively powerful machine at least relative to what the Nintendo Switch 2 could be and this is due to a semi-confirmation. It's technically a rumor or a leak depending on how you want to approach the sourcing on this but it is from someone who is one of the most reliable people for this stuff out there on a major AAA game coming day one to the next generation Switch. And this game is, yes, a next generation exclusive game so this isn't like a PlayStation 4 or Xbox One version or whatever, it's obviously not coming to Nintendo Switch and is something that is probably based on the franchise's history going to be a visual feast and yeah it's going to be there on the next Switch day one. What are we talking about? Well before we dive in I want to remind you we're on a road to 150,000 subscribers so I want to, you know, just preface that I would appreciate if you would subscribe to the channel to help us get closer to our goal, drop a like if you're enjoying the video and ring a link, that ding a link to be notified of all future uploads and videos and podcasts including our podcast tonight featuring some bro nation, Jake Randall, Andres Restart, Eric Moore, and maybe another special guest so stay tuned for that it's going to be a good show tonight at 8pm central time. Now let's dive into this because what are we talking about? Well there has been some reports coming out today about a massive AAA game coming to Nintendo Switch 2. Now the reports are actually not about it coming to Nintendo Switch 2, the reports are actually about the game's story. This originally broke at Insider Gaming but ended up spreading to a whole bunch of places who corroborated it and that is that Far Cry 7 had a bunch of story details outlined. Now the story itself is not entirely spoiled, this is more of an outline of events and again I don't want to dive too deep into this stuff because yeah story spoilers are story spoilers and the point of this video isn't to talk about Far Cry 7's story spoilers. No it's to talk about the fact that Far Cry 7 is coming to Nintendo Switch 2. In the tweet announcing the story details from Insider Gaming, Necro Felipe, one of the big guys who runs Universal Nintendo and yes was 100% spot on with the last Nintendo Direct the Direct before that and several little details along the way including some of the demos from Gamescom. This guy is connected and he's been right on a lot of things and I have a deep respect for what he does. He literally responded to that tweet and said, this game will launch day one on the next Switch system. His exact words. Now people were obviously like wait a second whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. This system's not even announced, how can he be talking about this. So Alavan says I assume you mean it will have a version for Switch 2 at its launch rather than being a day one system launch title. If so you should probably clarify or edit and Necro clarifies and he says yeah it will launch day one along with the other console versions of the Switch next generation system. So what he is saying is that by the time this game comes out which there are some rumors and reports out there that this is a 2024 target title that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be out before this game comes out. So he's not saying oh this is going to be their day one at launch no no no no no no no the system is going to be out before this game comes out and this game is going to be their day one with the other console versions. That is awesome. What's even cooler is someone responded to him and said like the possible next gen Monster Hunter or Monster Hunter 6 question mark and Necro Felipe says yup. So I don't know if Necro Felipe here is confirming that we're also going to be getting the next generation Monster Hunter on Switch. It sort of seems like that's the way he's leaning here that he's kind of doing that. But dude that is insane. Let's think about this for a brief moment. What does this mean? Far Cry 7 as far as we're aware is a next generation so a generation 9 and an Xbox Series X slash PlayStation 5 exclusive game PC as well. And as far as we're aware it will not be coming to old platforms. And Far Cry is one of the most visually I guess oomph games out there. If you look at Far Cry 1 through 6 they literally are some of the most visually impressive games. Now what's also really cool about this is Far Cry is actually a franchise from Ubisoft. And Ubisoft as we know is major supporters of the Nintendo Switch. They collaborated on several things but they never really brought their latest and greatest games over. And if Far Cry 7 is coming over this would obviously indicate other games like Assassin's Creed the new ones would actually come over to this system as well. And I think the biggest news in this when we hear about Far Cry 7 coming to Nintendo Switch 2 assuming that it is again you can keep some skepticism for this is not a confirmation but this is pretty close to one even Necro Philippe's track record. The biggest takeaway is that this really means all AAA games are going to be coming to this system. If a AAA game can run on Nintendo Switch 2 the third parties that skipped the switch and regret that decision we've heard people at EA say they regret that decision we've heard people at Activision say they regret that decision. It sounds like they're going to be supporting in massive ways the Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo Switch 2 might be the first platform from Nintendo to get full AAA game support. You know what's really crazy about this and how this actually turned out to work in Nintendo's favor the Nintendo Switch 2 is reportedly supposedly launching sometime next year maybe earlier in the year we don't know but either way it's launching sometime next year. The current generation systems in PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X have only just now this year started to get exclusive games to their generation where they're no longer making versions of games for PlayStation 4 and Xbox Series X I. Now that's still actually happening with some franchises but a lot of IP are starting to now make games exclusively for this generation and Nintendo Switch 2 is going to drop right in the heart of that happening. So what's kind of crazy is well obviously Nintendo Road Switch for a while they were still able to get games like Mortal Kombat 1 I know not an impressive port but they still got the game and other third party games because the PlayStation 4 was still being supported but now as we enter into when we're truly going to see what the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are capable of with these generation exclusive versions of games what's really cool about this is that's when Nintendo's dropping their next system and this actually works into their favor because right as we get all these you know PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X like exclusive generation games that's right when Nintendo's given us the hardware that can run those very games so that is this actually worked out beautifully for Nintendo if you really think about it so I am really excited to see what's going on I don't know how this game is running I don't have any idea how it's going to stack up to the PlayStation 5 version what I do know is that obviously Nintendo's platforms can run this game and if it can run this game I don't foresee any future third-party game that couldn't run including a potential next generation exclusive Monster Hunter title which might have also just been confirmed or at least semi-confirmed again this isn't a confirmation it is a affirmation it is a highly credible leak slash report so you guys let me know what you think about this down in the comments below I am Nathaniel Rubble Jantz from Nintendo Prime I'm stupidly excited right now because I'm really really hyped about this but guess what I'm also really really hyped about the Milwaukee Bucks just got Damian Lillard team with Chris Middleton and Giannis Anzatecumpo along with Brook Lopez oh my gosh are we talking Bucks Championship this year I think we are you just found out I'm a major Milwaukee Bucks fan you guys are awesome I'll catch you in the next video

We're going to get started in just a few seconds if everyone can take a seat. Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Maria Torres-Springer. I'm the Deputy Mayor for Housing, Economic Development and Workforce. Welcome to everyone who has joined us here today, extraordinary partners in government, in the public sector. Today is the second stop of our administration's working people's tour. This tour is in celebration of New York City reaching a record 4.7 million jobs just last week. This number reflects the nearly one million private sector jobs recovered since the lows of the pandemic and highlights the success of our administration's inclusive economic agenda, which really does aim to ensure that all New Yorkers, from all walks of life, benefit from the city's economic prosperity. Today, and we'll be joined just shortly by the Mayor, I'm incredibly excited to join everyone in Breaking Ground on Sunset Pier 94 Studios, an important economic development project, and yet again, another example of a long-stalled project that our Get Stuff Done administration is making happen to deliver results for New Yorkers. Before we bring up partners in this work, I do want to just describe how this initiative fits into our economic agenda. So like our transformative efforts at Willets Point in Queens, Spark Kips Bay, the Kingsbridge Armory in the Bronx, the Climate Center in Governors Island, we are advancing a bold slate of economic development projects spanning the entire city that will create tens of thousands of family sustaining jobs in all zip codes across a multitude of growing industries. The activation of Pier 94 is no different and will bring the same type of strategy, the same type of energy to the west side of Manhattan, to a public asset that has long been crumbling and is vacant. Now we anticipate opening the project by the end of 2025, creating 1700 new jobs and generating more than $6 billion in economic impact. And as we begin to look to New York City's future economy, we have to make sure that we remain the center for arts, entertainment and recreation. Sunset Pier 94 Studios is instrumental in this effort and will not only deliver a state of the art facility, but also provide many benefits to the local community, including new waterfront open space, bikeway improvements and other community facility space. Along with the improvements to the public realm, the project will also connect local New Yorkers to opportunities in film, TV and media production through a $250,000 investment in workforce development training led by our industry partners. So I want to thank everyone here today who has really worked so hard to reach this milestone and is committed to growing our economy for all New Yorkers. I'd like to invite our first speaker here today, you know, this work of not just building projects but really transforming entire neighborhoods of our city. We cannot do it alone. We have to do that in partnership. And when that happens, what we're really seeing is a vote being cast for the future of New York. It's a vote of confidence, not just in this neighborhood, not just in this asset, but really for New Yorkers. And so I'd like to thank all of our private sector partners who are helping us make this happen. And to speak on their behalf, I'd like to introduce Victor Coleman, the CEO of Hudson Pacific Properties. Victor. Thank you, Deputy Mayor. Good afternoon, everybody. This is extremely exciting for all of us. This will be the best studio facility in America when it's done, right here in Manhattan. So congratulations. On behalf of my partners here behind me, I'm very fortunate to have Blackstone and Vornado as the lead partners on this project. Their expertise, friendship, and professionalism is going to bring this over the top to make this project exactly what you want it to be, the best ever. So we're thrilled to be breaking ground here today. This is something that's been in the works between all of us for at least three years. And you know what? This campus in Manhattan is going to be something else when it's all said and done. I'm going to take a moment and just run through a bunch of people that without their help, this never would have gotten done. First and foremost, Deputy Mayor of Housing, Economic Development, and Workforce, Maria Torres Springer. He's not here, but easy. Deputy President Andrew Kimball and Chief Operating Officer Melissa Roman Birch. Fantastic work. Thank you so much. Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment, Pat Kaufman. Thank you. The Manhattan Borough President, Mark Levine. Council Member Eric Buckner. Senator Brad Holman Siegel, Segal I apologize. Assembly Member Linda Rosenthal. Deputy Board Four Chairperson Jeffrey Levine-Swa and the whole community poured for all of their hard work and constructive feedback on that. Hudson River President and CEO Noreen Doyle and her entire staff in collaboration for working with us and all the neighbors in the community. I'd also like to acknowledge our partners, the three of us as partners on the financing side led by RBC and as well the unbelievable design which you'll see from Gensler Partners, fantastic super sexy project, you're going to see that soon to come. So thank you all. Finally, just on the thanks on the Vornado side, the working team on Vornado, they made this possible. So thank you, Barry, Frank, Dan, and Julian, and specifically, as I said, our EDC partners in the City Law Department, Banga, Raven, Greg, Judy, Bill, for their tireless work in getting this project to the point and from this point on to the finish line. So thank you all very much. As the Deputy Mayor said, this is going to be a $350 million investment into Manhattan to make Pier 94 studios the first of its kind. It's going to be home for the state of the art facility with all the new technology and the most competitive aspects for filming and production on all forms of content worldwide. As all New Yorkers are going to benefit from this, 25,000 new square feet of a waterfront at the back of this space is going to be open to the public, new restrooms. We're going to have on the Hudson River a 1850 square foot community amenity place here. And in addition, we are going to improve the bikeway as well. So this is going to be a fantastic new ad for the entire area and the city of Manhattan. It's the first of its kind. There is no purpose built studio in Manhattan, believe it or not. This will be the first of its kind. My company, Hudson Pacific, we've been in the studio business for 15 years and we've always wanted to get into New York. This is a dream come true for our company. This is a dream come true for our partnerships. Blackstone and us have looked at forming Sunset Studios now for several years. This is what we strive for quality. The best in class and something that I know will leave a lasting impact for the city of New York. So when I first got a phone call from my longtime friends at Vornado, who I've known for over 20 years, three years ago in the makings, they said, this is an opportunity for us to do something good for the city. And damn right, they were on it and so are we. So congratulations. Thank you for coming out and thank you, Deputy Mayor, for leading the way. Thank you so much, Victor. I'd like to acknowledge that we've also been joined by Assemblymember Linda Rosenthal. Our next speaker, I'm sure, it is music to her ears when we shared and it will now become reality. The fact that there will be Manhattan's first purpose built film and TV production studio. And she's really leading our efforts to grow and support a major industry here in New York that has 185,000 jobs and tens of billions in economic impact. And so please join me in welcoming the Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Meet and Entertainment, Pat Kaufman. You know, I've been in this business for a long, long time before I was city film commissioner. I was a state film commissioner and I will tell you that the entire time that I've been working this industry, everyone was clamoring for we got to get a purpose built stage in New York and we want to get stages on these piers. No one could get it done until now, until you guys work together and, of course, until our wonderful Mayor, Eric Adams, came along. And then suddenly the magic happened and here we are. I'm thrilled that this is going on. You grabbed one of my best lines that I'm here representing the film and television production industry. An industry, and I just love saying it, so I hope you don't mind. I'm going to repeat it, an industry that generates $82 billion of economic activity every single year and creates and provides jobs for 185,000 people. Astonishing, right? That's film and television in New York. So we are a powerhouse industry just like all of you folks that build buildings and do financing and all of that sort of stuff. So it's exciting to be here and watch as something like this stage is coming forward. You know, this industry creates not only jobs for the people that are working on the set, the actors, the crew and all of that, but also in the ancillary businesses that support the industry. Somebody has to go get the lumber to build the set. Somebody has to clean all the costumes. Somebody has to have the flowers that might be used in a scene. So it's a wonderful creation of jobs. But in addition to those obvious jobs that the industry creates, we also are very powerful in that we attract people to New York. You know, all the scenes that you see on your screens, whether they're big screens, little screens, you'll watch those. When those scenes are about New York and New York City, that makes people want to come to New York and experience New York. They want to live in New York. They want to work in New York. They want to visit New York and they want to do all the great things that are so much fun in New York and spend money on it. So that contributes also to the power and the economic activity. Granted, the last few years we've been hit pretty hard. Everyone has been hit pretty hard with the pandemic and all the difficulties that it brought. And now, of course, our, I say our industry, the film and television production industry has been hit very hard by the strikes. But we are thrilled that finally today, the negotiators are back at the table and we're very hopeful. That very quickly we're going to get a good result of all this work and then a fair and equitable solution is going to be found. And once that happens, we are really expecting a rush of new production. We've got the expanded tax credit, film production tax credit that's going to attract productions. And now we're going to have a new fabulous purpose-built stage that's going to enable us to service all the production that's going to come. So this stage is going to be a boon to the industry, production industry. It's going to be a boon to the local economy. It's going to be a boon to the small business. It's going to be a boon to all of us. So it really will help us continue to build on our dream. It will, first of all, it will keep the city, the crown jewel of the industry, the production industry in this country. But it's also going to help us make sure that New York remains the extraordinary production hub that it's been and we want it to continue to be. We like to say that when film and TV production industry thrives, New York City thrives. And that's what's about to happen. So as you guys finish the great work that you're doing and you finish these stages that are going to be so extraordinary, that's when my and my team's work really begins. Because we are going to be out there recruiting the productions that are going to come here and be so excited about having what this production facility is going to offer. So thank you so much for the work that you're doing and the vision you've got and all the changes that it will bring about. Thank you. Thank you, Commissioner. I'd now just like to ask Andrew Kimmel to share a few words because it's so important that this is the type of project that advances with the type of speed that it deserves. But before Andrew speaks, I would like to a pivot because our mayor has joined us and, you know, when we started, we inherited a lot of projects. Some of them were long stalled and it was very important to the mayor and he gave us our marching orders that we not just identify what those long stalled projects are, but that we worked quickly to problem solve and to make sure that we reverse those trajectories and this project here in Pier 94 is a perfect example of that. So please join me in welcoming the 110th mayor of New York City, Mayor Eric Adams. Thank you. Thank you. Real excitement in the air and it's just a continuation as we're doing this working people's tour with Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer and just showing how this city can continue to come back in a real way. We don't do it alone. I was 22 when I took office. I started calling up our major corporations, bringing our teams into the room and just sending the right message, government has no business being in your business. Government is supposed to support business. When businesses are doing well, it allows people to be employed and we were very clear. It was a triangle offense. It was about public space, about investing in people and about being safe. If people felt safe, they would get back on the subways and get back into our office spaces, visit our restaurants, tourists would come here. If we dealt with the over-proliferation on guns on our street, we were trending in the wrong direction. We're moving in the right direction. In our time categories are decreasing. Four million subways riders are back on the subway system and we're watching businesses return. We have more jobs in our city in the history of New York City. People said it was going to take five years. They did not understand those three letters. Get stuff done. We're getting stuff done every day. This is the greatest city on the globe. Everybody argues about two and three. Nobody argues about number one. New York is the number one city on the globe. We have been beaten down to believe we have to take second place to others, not under this administration. Twenty months this city has turned around. When I come back, New York City is back. We're going to continue to move in the right direction. I want to thank Vernado with their fearless leader. We met the other day. This is what hard-core Brooklyn Ice Street guys can do. They build from the bottom up and real good stuff. Reality Trust and Hudson Pacific Projects, Pacific Company as well. EDC, Andrew Kimball put more shovels in the ground than you can ever imagine. We want to continue to do so. First of his kind. Each time you hear us say first of his kind, first of his kind, first of his kind, this administration has been rolling out so many firsts of his kind, first time in history, first time in history, over and over again with an amazing team of New Yorkers. We get stuff done because we have a New York attitude. We're not taking any mess. It's about showing who we are as a city. We lost our aunt. We lost our power. We lost the feeling of what it is to be New Yorker. It's a privilege to be a New Yorker. Let those cats go to Miami all they want. We want the best right here. It's a privilege to be living in this great city called New York City. This project, 350 million in private investment, believing in city, came here, a minus AA bond rating without a AA. We continue to soar in the right places. And that's why investors are saying we want to invest in New York City. And this is a 350 million dollar private investment, 1,700 jobs, 1,300 good paying union jobs, $6.4 billion in economic opportunity in the next three years. So we have to keep it going. I need SAG in our studios. We need to sign the deal. We need those 185,000 workers back into our economy. So let's get this signed. Let's get this deal. Let's get some great movies here in Manhattan, great office spaces, great opportunities for people to enjoy. There's some amazing waterfront. When you have great populations in the waterfront, it brings back the energy to the city. And listen, well, John, job well done to all of my electors here, to all of our teams here. This is how we can get stuff done. Bring our city to the direction that we want. Great job, Deputy Mayor. Keep doing it. Thank you. Thank you so much, Mayor. And knowing Andrew as well as I do, I know he's a man of action and would prefer that we go ahead with the actual groundbreaking than more remarks. But I'll just close by saying it's a fantastic day for Sunset Pier 34 and 94. Thanks to all of you for all of your tremendous efforts. And we can't wait till 2025. We'll see you all back here when we open this amazing facility. Thanks to all of you. Thanks, John.

NMN Optimal Dose & Health Benefits Revealed in New Study!
A new study suggests that NMN supplementation can indeed elevate NAD levels and increase Walking distance in healthy participants, and has narrowed in on 600 milligrams a day being the optimal dose. While it is widely believed that NAD can be supplemented via precursors such as NMN, studies do not always show that NAD precursors increase NAD blood levels. Their safety is a bit of a concern as well, since NAD can provide energy to cancer cells via glycolysis. Previous studies were often inconsistent in showing NMN’s health benefits and its ability to affect NAD levels in blood. These studies were often sex-biased and/or conducted in people with pre-existing health conditions. This time, the researchers made a point of recruiting 80 healthy men and women aged 40-65 with a wide range of BMI scores. Three different doses of NMN were investigated: 300, 600, and 900 milligrams a day. NAD levels were increased significantly in all study groups compared to placebo and baseline. There was also a significant difference between 300 and 600 milligrams a day but not between 600 and 900 milligrams a day. Interestingly, most of the increase in NAD levels happened during the first 30 days of the study, while during the second month, the researchers only saw a very mild additional increase. The six-minute walking distance at baseline was about 300 meters across the groups, which is on the slower side. It significantly improved in the three study groups compared to placebo and baseline. Here, too, the difference between 300 and 600 milligrams a day was large, but the difference between 600 and 900 milligrams a day was virtually nonexistent. The gains in walking distance were substantial, with both 600 and 900 milligrams a day groups adding about 150 meters: a 50% increase. The participants were not required to perform any regular physical activity during the experiment, and the tests were done just three times: at baseline, after the first month, and after the second month. If there was any habituation to the walking test, it should have been noticeable in the placebo group. However, in this group, no increase in walking distance occurred. It is possible that participants on NMN began feeling more invigorated early into the study period, and increased their physical activity accordingly, which led to better results measured in the clinic. This study appears to establish 600 milligrams a day of NMN as a preferred dose that seems to significantly affect NAD levels and physical performance. As in previous NMN trials, no safety problems were reported. However, it does not mean that either efficacy of safety of NMN supplementation have been proven beyond any doubt; therefore, there should be more studies with larger sample sizes, different endpoints, and longer follow-up period. So, will these results change how you view NMN? Is NMN a part of your longevity strategy? Let us know in the comments!

A new study suggests that NMN supplementation can indeed elevate NAD levels and increase walking distance in healthy participants. Not only that, but the study narrowed in on 600 mg a day as the optimal dose. While it is believed that NAD can be supplemented by precursors such as NMN, this route has a few roadblocks. For instance, studies do not always show that NAD precursors increase NAD levels. Their safety is a bit of concern as well, since NAD can provide energy to cancer cells. However, NAD precursors are generally considered safe. This new study was based on a randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that was co-sponsored by two companies that jointly produced a food-grade NMN product. The primary endpoint was NMN's ability to elevate NAD blood levels with secondary endpoints of safety and tolerability, physical performance in a walking test, blood biological age, insulin resistance, and overall health via a subjective assessment. Previous studies were often inconsistent in showing NMN's health benefits or its ability to increase NAD levels in blood. These studies were often sex-biased or conducted in people with pre-existing health conditions. This time, the researchers made it a point of recruiting 80 healthy men and women aged 40 to 65 with a wide range of BMI scores. Three different doses of NMN were investigated, 300, 600, and 900 mg a day. NAD levels were increased significantly in all groups compared to placebo and baseline. There was also a significant difference between 300 and 600 mg a day, but not between 600 and 900. Interestingly, most of the increase in NAD levels happened during the first 30 days of the study, with the second month showing only a very mild additional increase. The 6 minute walking distance at baseline was about 300 meters across the groups, which is on the slower side. It significantly improved in the three study groups compared to placebo and baseline. Here too, the difference between 300 and 600 mg a day was large, but the difference between 600 and 900 was virtually non-existent. The gains in walking distance were substantial, with both the 600 and the 900 mg a day group adding about 150 meters, a 50% increase. Participants were not required to perform any regular physical activity, and testing was done only three times, at baseline, after the first month, and after the second month. If there was any habituation to the walking test, it should have been noticeable in the placebo group. However, in this group, no increase in walking distance occurred. However, it is possible that participants on NMN began feeling more invigorated early into the study period, and increased their physical activity accordingly, which led to better results measured in the clinic. The participants were also asked to complete a 36 question health and quality of life questionnaire. The scores mostly followed the same dynamic as NAD levels and walking distance. There was some increase in the 300 mg a day group compared to placebo, and a much more pronounced increase in both the 600 and 900 mg groups. However, there was no significant difference between the two latter groups. This study appears to establish 600 mg a day of NMN as a preferred dose that significantly impacts NAD levels and physical performance. As with previous NMN studies, no safety problems were reported. However, that does not prove the safety or efficacy of NMN beyond any doubt. Therefore, there should be more studies, with larger sample sizes, different end points, and longer follow up periods.

Clausi on how CBLT has used creative M&As in gold and cobalt to make money for their shareholders
In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Tracy Weslosky asks Peter Clausi, President, CEO and Director of CBLT Inc. (TSXV: CBLT) to explain what he meant by his line that “a mining company can make more money with a pen than with a drill bit.” He responds on how this works with market cycles and then adds that as a result of their focus on strategic M&A activities that “CBLT has not had to do financing since 2016.” He then goes on to explain how CBLT has found creative M&As to make money for their shareholders. In this InvestorIntel interview, which may also be viewed on YouTube (click here to subscribe to the InvestorIntel Channel), Peter went on to say, “Two years ago, CBLT bought a portfolio of assets for little over $1 million in stock. Northshore gold was one of the assets in the portfolio which was sold for $1.45 million.” He also provided an update on the Big Duck Lake gold property on which Peter said “…is analogous to the Moose Lake Porphyry which hosts the Hemlo Gold Camp.” Commenting on the cobalt market Peter said, “If you believe that we are going to greenify the world, if you believe that there is a run on Lithium — then you have to believe that there is a run on cobalt.” About CBLT Inc.: CBLT Inc. is a Canadian mineral exploration company with a proven leadership team, targeting cobalt and gold in reliable mining jurisdictions. CBLT is well-poised to deliver real value to its shareholders. Disclaimer: CBLT Inc. is an advertorial member of InvestorIntel Corp.

Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Peter Clausi from CBLTE, how are you today? I'm doing really well Tracy, how are you? I'm doing well and I am dying to talk to you Peter because if I recall, you've given me a couple of quotes I've used on multiple occasions, but you told me that a junior mining company could make more money with a pen than it could a drill bit. So how's that going in current market conditions? Well that's true when commodities are depressed. When commodities are rocking and rolling, the drill bit is everybody's friend. But during the tough decade we just suffered through, mining companies have had to find creative ways to create value for their shareholders and we did that through M&A activities. CBLTE has not had to do a financing since 2016 because we found creative M&A to make money for our shareholders and it's going really, really well. Of course, you've been very active with your M&A's here in the last year. Let's just start with your most recent news release on Omni's progress at Northshore Gold. Okay, so two years ago, CBLTE bought a portfolio of assets for a little over $1 million in stock. That Northshore Gold was one of those assets. We just sold that one asset for $1.45 million, roughly one quarter of it in cash, three quarters of it in stock. The buyer is called Omni Commerce Corp, which is changing its name to Ready Set Gold. It should list in December of 2020. We are the single largest shareholder in that company going forward. Our stock becomes free trading at the end of December. Part of it's subject to a voluntary escrow, but we will be receiving roughly $300,000 worth of our stock at the end of December. It's been a very successful M&A run for us and we wish Ready Set Gold all the best luck in the world. Well, speaking of M&A deals that you've done, of course, in addition to gold, we have, we've got Copper, we've got Cobalt. Where do you want to go next, Peter? Let's get an update. We have filed a permit to drill at Big Duck Lake. Big Duck Lake is in Hemlow. It has a historic non-compliant resource. It's a really, really interesting property. The geologists have told us that it has some characteristics that are now just to the Moose Lake porphyry, which hosts the Hemlow Gold Camp. So we're very excited to get in there and do some work. And like I said, you often comment about Cobalt. Can you give us a Cobalt update, please? Pricing on Cobalt has to be one of the most boring topics in the world, because despite the insanity of the past two years, Cobalt has traded at a very narrow range between roughly $30,000 and $34,000 a ton on the London Metals Exchange. But if you believe that we're going to greenify the world, if you believe that there's a run on lithium, then you have to believe there's a run on Cobalt. Cobalt has certain characteristics that make it indispensable to the creation of a battery formulation in the cathode. You have to have Cobalt. So, what should we as shareholders anticipate, say in the next coming quarter or two? So Q1 is going to be busy for us. Our first block of stock comes free trading at December 26. Call that $300,000. We currently have about $200,000 in the bank already. That's roughly half a million dollars. We can do a lot of good with half a million dollars. And then four months after that, we get another $300,000 worth of stock emotive escrow. We can do a lot of really good things coming up. We can spend that money wisely. We can invest it wisely, make good money for the shareholders. So Q1, Q2 are going to be very interesting for the shareholders. Well, Peter, I'll tell you, we always love CBLT updates. We love to hear what you're doing with your M&A model. Please visit us more often. And thank you for joining us today. Thanks for having me. It's always a pleasure to see you. Have a wonderful day.

The House of Representatives Committee on Public Accounts partnered with the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation and the Lagos Mainland District of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria to organize a national workshop on the Auditor General's Queries and the ABC of Responses. The workshop was meant for officials of government ministries, departments and agencies as plus TV Africa's correspondent Destiny Momo on our reports. In an audit, queries address issues where the Auditor General needs further clarifications to erase doubts and address disagreements. The queries may also be the questions asked by the Auditor General during an investigation to gather information to conclude an audit. The key issues in responding to Auditor General's queries and the fundamentals of technology innovations and compliance initiatives at the major discuss in this workshop. The Auditor General audits all governments pending every year by carrying out interim and annual audits as well as ad hoc examinations when the need arises. Key members from the National Assembly and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria speak on the need for the provision of answers to these queries. As of Chief Executive Officers to be alive to their responsibilities in terms of rendition of audited accounts to the Auditor General for the Federation for his comments and subsequent report which is expected to be laid before the floor of the House and of the Senate. What it's meant, this workshop is meant to do is to look at the work of the auditor and the audit query holistically. Audit queries is a phenomenon in the Nigerian environment so to say in the sense that every now and then the Auditor General for the Federation encounters issues, sometimes unexplained issues. Delegates speak under plans for their respective organizations after this workshop. Yes I think it's trying to drive the culture of financial, regular financial reporting, reliability of accountants reporting from the MDAs. A useful one considering that when we prepare we are accountable for whatever the government has given to us. The workshop is meant to help enclosing the technical operational gaps brought about by the introduction of emerging technology disruptions and of course the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Destin and Marmo for Plus TV Africa.

Big challenge is when they're blowing me away with this double leg. Now, just because they blow me away with a double leg doesn't mean I'm completely gone. Alright? I've just got to be able to absorb that energy and redirect it, okay? Not necessarily like a bullfighter because a bullfighter is more disappearing. We're actually getting hit by the bull and then trying to redirect the bull's momentum. So, as the double leg's coming in, okay, he's trying to take me straight back, forward to the side, okay, depending on what kind of double it is. I've got to take this energy and redirect it in like a circle, okay? I'm literally trying to redirect this energy in a circle so I can take all of his energy and make it my leg pass, okay? I didn't do very good in school. I wasn't very smart. I was terrible in math, but there's something about transference of energy coming into me here that I can kind of make it my own and turn it around the corner. I don't know what the term is for that, but I'm... Connecticut energy, boom, done. Private school kids got to love them, all right? So, I'm taking the energy towards my hips and I'm basically rerouting it around the corner. So that's what I want you to do. And he's going to go super slow. He's going to have inside ties so I can kind of feel him coming in. And as he comes to my double end, I'm going to redirect it to this position, okay? I'm going to redirect it around the corner. Now, this is the mechanics of my body. We're all going to get up and do it on our own here in a second, but it's just back up. I'm going to be in my stance. I'm going to take a side step and I'm going to swing my heels behind me and go to my outside hip and my outside shoulder. Kind of like a little break dance moves here, okay? So I'm going to be in my stance. I'm a right leg lead. He's attacking. I'm going to side step. This hand's going to be pulling the shoulder. I'm whipping my heels. Behind me and I'm getting to my outside hip, outside shoulder. So when he does shoot this double leg and it's coming in slow, get to my leg pass, okay? Jesse Delgado is probably the quickest I've ever seen getting to this position, okay? He just had real good instincts. Pat, a couple of people asked me, hey, what percentage should I scramble and what percentage should baseline defense? 100% of the time baseline defense. Hope you never have to scramble in your career. You just smash everybody with a good baseline and you never have to scramble. That's usually not the case. But getting here, I'm in great shape, okay? I get to the leg, I pass the floats, right to my position of finish. And if I get here and he doesn't have anything, turn down. Turn down, attack the legs, get your finish. And then you just kind of ramp up your timing and ramp up your speed. He gets a little bit faster. He gets this leg a little faster, okay? And I'm just building up my tendencies to get to my leg pass finish, all right? And you'll kind of start feeling your threshold of what you're comfortable with, taking that energy in, and I'm redirecting it around the corner. Questions? So this is crucial. But once we learn this one leg pass, we can leg pass from any position, okay? There's thousands of leg pass positions we'll get to. Good? Okay, go!

So I saw a headline that made me think our human beings literally on an extinction speedrun Like are we trying to kill ourselves as quickly as possible because things like this shouldn't be happening We should be aware of the way that we affect the environment with which we live So the headline reads rising chemical pollution crosses crucial planetary boundary the pace that societies are producing and releasing new chemicals Into the environment is not consistent with staying within a safe operating space for humanity said one Scientist so to my understanding there's a lot of different issues that affect all of us and a lot of these things are Interrelated right climate change is an issue that leads to ocean acidification desertification food shortages and whatnot and then we have this issue which is kind of its own separate thing because of our use of chemicals and One thing that the article which will dive into makes clear is that the rate with which we're producing chemicals as a species just everyone has Increased 50 fold since 1950 and it's set to triple by 2050 So assuming we're able to solve the issue of climate change with at this point in time doesn't seem Very likely not to be too cynical, but it doesn't look good for us at this moment Then there's this issue We're using so much chemicals that it has exceeded the point where it's safe. I Just I don't I don't know what to do I can't not laugh at these stories because of how absurd the situation is the deck is totally stacked against us and late-stage Capitalism has led to us just completely wrecking our planet all for profits all for economies that we made up We chose to make economies and emphasize that over human well-being and it's just it's a It's sad right we can we can rework the system as human beings We've done a lot of stupid things, but I think that we're savvy enough to at least try To not kill ourselves to try to design an economic system try to design a global system that isn't completely Going to get us all killed for lack of a better word So let's get to the article here So Julia Conley of common dreams reports the level of chemical pollution on earth has crossed a planetary boundary and now Threatens global ecosystems that support all life according to a new study on human-made substances whose production has rapidly increased in recent decades researchers at the Stockholm Resilience Center Examined the levels of 350,000 plastics pesticides industrial chemicals and other chemicals and found that human activity is Releasing so many of these substances each year that their production has altered the remarkably stable state earth has remained within For 10,000 years since the dawn of civilization the pace that societies are producing and releasing new chemicals into the environment is Not consistent with staying within a safe operating space for humanity said Patricia Villarubia Gomez a PhD Canada and research assistant who contributed to the report Plastics are a significant driver of the problem with worldwide plastic production skyrocketing by 79 percent between 2000 and 2015 the authors of the report published in the Journal of Environmental Science and Technology drew on research from 2009 in which a team of international scientists identified nine planetary boundaries that influence the planet's stability The new study relates to novel entities or synthetic chemicals that are created by human activities with largely unknown effects on the earth system According to the SRC the novel entities boundary is the fifth to be crossed according to scientists after climate change and global Heating land system change biochemical flows and the loss of biodiversity Freshwater use stratospheric ozone depletion and ocean acidification are still within the safe operating space Identified by scientists, but are also approaching the planetary boundaries. Okay, so the conclusion is we're doomed right Well, I don't necessarily know this is a study that was just published I think that I want to hear from the experts and what they say in terms of how we can stop another Catastrophe that we've brought upon ourselves for purposes of profit But I'm actually Surprisingly encouraged to know that we haven't crossed the entity's boundary for issues like ozone depletion and ocean acidification because I knew that these are issues But I thought oh wow, that's good I thought that we were too far gone there, but there's still hope apparently it's running out But there's there's a little bit of hope hang on to that optimism folks. Hang on to that. Hope you if you can find any But you know something like this. I don't know the impact the article doesn't necessarily state this I don't know the impact that this has I don't know if there's ripple effects I would argue that there probably are I mean anything environmental our ecosystems are all interconnected So if you affect one thing in a certain way, then other things are going to deal with unforeseen Consequences so, you know, I don't know What the unintended consequences of this will be I don't know what else this will affect But what we do know is that chemicals are being used too much and the solution at least for now Maybe this is an oversimplification But the solution is to stop using so much chemicals We need a global push to reduce the use of chemicals reduce production of chemicals So the same way that we are calling on governments all from around the world to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions There also needs to be a parallel push to reduce the use of chemicals because if we don't do that Then we're going to slowly but surely poison ourselves

Hey what's up guys welcome back to my Facebook page this is Daniel Rosal here very very exciting day for snow enthusiasts and weather enthusiasts here in Jerusalem because according to the latest forecast there is going to be snow in just a few hours. I'm pulling up on the screen here the latest Facebook status from the Jerusalem weather forecast Facebook page which I highly recommend anybody living in Jerusalem who's also a weather or snow boffin should sign up for really really good page. The guy doesn't identify himself except by his initials but he says that he's an avid meteorology enthusiast avid meteorologist and weather enthusiast which is super cool because I used to be one of those too. So his latest status says that it's an exciting day for snow lovers across Jerusalem we're just hours away from substantial and memorable snow the winds are picking up which I can confirm is currently happening the storm is coming what's to follow in this post is just a forecast of what I expect to happen in the next 24 36 hours and then a brief discussion of my latest thoughts let's get to it snow emoji snow emoji snow emoji Wednesday morning until 3 p.m so this is correct I'm just recording this little video here on Wednesday afternoon so it's mostly clear skies so that's what's going on currently the weather is kind of changing literally as I watch it outside my window and it's definitely at this point official the city has issued sms snow warnings to all citizens saying every every sms list I'm on from super far the city are sending out sms saying we're closing our branches Wednesday three to seven clouds will start to roll in that's currently going on precipitation will initially fall as rain and icy sleet otherwise known here as grapple it will get really windy and rates of precipitation will fall heavy at times but will also remain spotty especially earlier the falling rain slash ice will be instrumental in cooling the ground level making it very cold snow may begin to mix in towards 6 p.m so it's currently obviously the winter here in Jerusalem it gets dark at approximately 5 p.m so it's going to be already nighttime at this stage unfortunately for other video people hoping to record this so then after dark Wednesday 7 in 7 p.m until Thursday 6 in the morning this will be when the main show really starts hashtag all night are coming up precipitation should begin falling much more heavily and will transition fully to snow especially between 10 and 4 a.m snow rates will fall with great intensity and snow will accumulate the intense convective process overhead may bring lightning and thunder at times allowing for the really cool experience of thunder snow to occur throughout the city roads will be hazardous at this time so be careful out there Thursday 6 a.m through 11 a.m snow will continue to fall but at much lighter rates the city will be covered in a white layer of snow i'm gonna actually just find here the dawn time for tomorrow by looking up the religious prayers also known as manim so people can know when to expect this spectacle um according to my is manim.com uh we have a sunset today at fight in Jerusalem at 5 0 7 p.m nightfall al-seda kochavim is going to be 5 24 so 5 5 0 7 is going to be sunset so it's going to be after nightfall by the time snow starts falling dawn tomorrow is at 5 20 a.m so that's 5 20 so by that time you should be able to wake up so at 6 p.m we should wake up to snow Thursday 6 to 11 snow will continue to fall but at much lighter rates it will be covered in a white layer of snow based on the latest data i think the most realistic snow accumulations will range from 5 to 10 centimeters with 10 to 15 only possible in the highest parts of the city Thursday um 11 a.m onwards precipitation will continue to fall but more lightly and we'll transition back into light rain and ice however there's a question of whether time snow will keep falling especially if cloud coverage remains thick in fact the lower levels of the atmosphere will remain very cold well into Friday these low-level temps normally would allow for snowfall anyway a lot of very detailed meteorological stuff that i can't follow there but bakitsor as i say in Hebrew it's going to according to this guy it's going to be snowing from uh three sorry seven p.m um onwards this evening through to Thursday morning and then we're going to wake up to snow hopefully a bit more snow going on on Thursday according to Haaretz um winter storm alps hits Israel on Wednesday bringing snow to the northern Golan Heights snow is expected to fall in Jerusalem later in the day alongside thunderstorms and high winds throughout the country in Jerusalem the snow is expected to begin in the afternoon and accumulate to a height of 15 to 20 centimeters six to eight inches the municipality is recommending that residents stay close to home there you go guys uh so that is the latest situ on the snow here in Jerusalem i am going to be wielding a camera and going to catch some footage of the delightful phenomenon of Jerusalem snow as soon as it emerges in the sky and i cannot wait for this always really look forward to seeing snow thank you guys for watching subscribe for more videos

Appendices B and C of Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt. This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or how to volunteer, please visit LibriVox.org. Autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt, Appendix B, The Control of Corporations and the New Freedom. In his book, The New Freedom, and in the magazine articles of which it is composed, which appeared just after he has been inaugurated as president, Mr. Woodrow Wilson made an entirely unprovoked attack upon me and upon the Progressive Party in connection with what he asserts the policy of that party to be concerning the trusts and as regards my attitude while president about the trusts. I am reluctant to say anything whatever about president Wilson at the outset of his administration unless I can speak of him with praise. I have scrupulously refrained from saying or doing one thing since election that could put the slightest obstacle even of misinterpretation in his path. It is to the interest of the country that he should succeed in his office. I cordially wish him success and I shall cordially support any policy of his that I believe to be in the interests of the people of the United States. But when Mr. Wilson, after being elected president within the first fortnight after he has been inaugurated into that high office, permits himself to be betrayed into a public misstatement of what I have said and what I stand for then he forces me to correct his statements. Mr. Wilson opens his article by saying that the progressive doctrine is that monopoly is inevitable and that the only course open to the people of the United States is to submit to it. This statement is without one particle of foundation in fact. I challenge him to point out a sentence in the progressive platform or in any speech of mine which bears him out. I can point him out any number which flatly contradict him. We have never made any such statement as he alleges about monopolies. We have said the corporation is an essential part of modern business. The concentration of modern business in some degree is both inevitable and necessary for national and international business efficiency. Does Mr. Wilson deny this? Let him answer yes or no directly. It is easy for a politician detected in a misstatement to take refuge in evasive, rhetorical hyperbole. But Mr. Wilson is president of the United States and as such he is bound to candid utterance on every subject of public interest which he himself has broached. If he disagrees with us, let him be frank and consistent and recommend to Congress that all corporations be made illegal. Mr. Wilson's whole attack is largely based on a deft but far from ingenuous confounding of what we have said of monopoly, which we propose so far as possible to abolish and what we have said of big corporations which we propose to regulate. Mr. Wilson's own vaguely set forth proposals being to attempt the destruction of both in ways that would harm neither. In our platform we use the word monopoly but once and then we speak of it as an abuse of power or a coupling it with stock watering, unfair competition and unfair privileges. Does Mr. Wilson deny this? If he does, then where else will he assert that we speak of monopoly as he says we do? He certainly owes the people of the United States a plain answer to the question. In my speech of acceptance I said under strengthening the Sherman law by prohibiting agreements to divide territory or limit output, refusing to sell to customers who buy from business rivals, to sell below cost in certain areas while maintaining higher prices in other places, using the power of transportation to aid or injure special business concerns and all other unfair trade practices. The platform pledges us to guard and keep open equally to all the highways of American commerce. This is the exact negation of monopoly. Unless Mr. Wilson is prepared to show the contrary, surely he is bound in honor to admit frankly that he has been betrayed into a misrepresentation and to correct it. Mr. Wilson says that for 16 years the national administration has been virtually under the regulation of the trusts and that the big businessmen have already captured the government. Such a statement as this might perhaps be pardoned as mere rhetoric in a candidate seeking office although it is the kind of statement that never under any circumstances have I permitted myself to make, whether on the stump or off the stump, without any opponent unless I was prepared to back it up with explicit facts. But there is an added seriousness to the charge when it is made deliberately and in cold blood by a man who is at the time president. In this volume I have set forth my relations with the trusts. I challenge Mr. Wilson to controvert anything I have said or to name any trusts or any big businessmen who regulated or in any shape or way controlled or captured the government during my term as president. He must furnish specifications if his words are taken at their face value and I venture to say in advance that the absurdity of such a charge is patent to all my fellow citizens not accepting Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson says that the new party was founded under the leadership of Mr. Roosevelt with the conspicuous aid I mentioned him with no satirical intention but merely to set the facts down accurately of Mr. George W. Perkins, organizer of the Steel Trust. Whether Mr. Wilson's intention was satirical or not is of no concern but I call his attention to the fact that he has conspicuously and strikingly failed to set the facts down accurately. Mr. Perkins was not the organizer of the Steel Trust and when it was organized he had no connection with it or with the Morgan people. This is well known and it has again and again been testified to before congressional committees controlled by Mr. Wilson's friends who were endeavoring to find out something against Mr. Perkins. If Mr. Wilson does not know that my statement is correct he ought to know it and he is not to be excused for making such a misstatement as he has made when he has not a particle of evidence in support of it. Mr. Perkins was from the beginning in the Harvester Trust but when Mr. Wilson points out this fact why does he not add that he was the only man in that trust who supported me and that the President of the Trust ardently supported Mr. Wilson himself? It is disingenuous to endeavor to conceal these facts and to mislead ordinary citizens about them. Under the administrations of both Mr. Taft and Mr. Wilson Mr. Perkins has been singled out for a special attack obviously not because he belonged to the Harvester and Steel trusts but because he alone among the prominent men of the two corporations fearlessly supported the only party which afforded any real hope of checking the evil of the trusts. Mr. Wilson states that the progressives have a program perfectly agreeable to monopolies. There is a main and unmistakable inference to be drawn from this and other similar statements in his article and the inference which he obviously desired to have drawn is that the big corporations approved the progressive plan and supported the progressive candidate. If President Wilson does not know perfectly well that this is not the case he is the only intelligent person in the United States who is thus ignorant. Everybody knows that the overwhelming majority of the heads of the big corporations supported him or Mr. Taft. It is equally well known that of the corporations he mentions the Steel and the Harvester trusts there was but one man who took any part in the progressive campaign and that almost all the others some 30 in number were against us and some of them including the president of the Harvester trust openly and enthusiastically for Mr. Wilson himself. If he reads the newspapers at all he must know that practically every man representing the great financial interests of the country and without exception every newspaper controlled by Wall Street or State Street actively supported either him or Mr. Taft and showed perfect willingness to accept either or only they could prevent the progressive party from coming into power and from putting its platform into effect. Mr. Wilson says of the trust plank in that platform that it did not anywhere condemn monopoly except in words. Exactly of what else could a platform consist? Does Mr. Wilson expect us to use algebraic signs? This criticism is much as if he said the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence contained nothing but words. The progressive platform did contain words and the words were admirably designed to express thought and meaning and purpose. Mr. Wilson says that I long ago classified trusts for us as good and bad and said that I was afraid only of the bad ones. Mr. Wilson would do well to quote exactly what my language was and where it was used for I am at a loss to know what statement of mine it is to which he refers. But if he means that I say that corporations can do well and that corporations can also do ill he is stating my position correctly. I hold that a corporation does ill if it seeks profit in restricting production and then by extorting high prices from the community by reason of the scarcity of the product. Through adulterating, lyingly advertising or over-driving the help or replacing men workers with children or by rebates or in any illegal or improper manner driving competitors out of its way or seeking to achieve monopoly by illegal or unethical treatment of its competitors or in any shape or way offending against the moral law either in connection with the public or with its employees or with its rivals. Any corporation which seeks its profit in such fashion is acting badly. It is, in fact, a conspiracy against the public welfare which the government should use all its powers to suppress. If, on the other hand, a corporation seeks profit solely by increasing its products through eliminating waste, improving its processes utilizing its byproducts, installing better machines raising wages in the effort to secure more efficient help introducing the principle of cooperation and mutual benefit dealing fairly with labor unions setting its face against the underpayment of women and the employment of children in a word treating the public fairly and its rivals fairly, then such a corporation is behaving well. It is an instrumentality of civilization operating to promote abundance by cheapening the cost of living so as to improve conditions everywhere throughout the whole community. Does Mr. Wilson contravert either of these statements? If so, let him answer directly. It is a matter of capital importance to the country that his position in this respect be stated directly not by indirect suggestion. Much of Mr. Wilson's article, although apparently aimed at the Progressive Party, is both so rhetorical and so vague as to need no answer. He does, however, specifically assert, among other things equally without warrant, in fact, that the Progressive Party says that it is futile to undertake to prevent monopoly and only ventures to ask the trusts to be kind and pitiful. It is a little difficult to answer a misrepresentation of the facts so radical, not to say preposterous, with the respect that one desires to use in speaking of or to the President of the United States. I challenge President Wilson to point to one sentence of our platform or of my speeches which affords the faintest justification for these assertions. Having made the statement in the course of an unprovoked attack on me, he cannot refuse to show that it is true. I deem it necessary to emphasize here, but with perfect respect, that I am asking for a plain statement of fact, not for a display of rhetoric. I ask him, as is my right under the circumstances, to quote the exact language which justifies him in attributing these views to us. If he cannot do this, then a frank acknowledgement on his part is due to himself and to the people. I quote from the Progressive Platform, behind the ostensible government sits enthroned by the invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government to dissolve the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of the day. This country belongs to the people, its resources, its business, its laws, its institutions should be utilized, maintained, or altered in whatever manner will best promote the general interest. This assertion is explicit. We say directly that the people are absolutely to control in any way they see fit the business of the country. I again challenge Mr. Wilson to quote any words of the platform that justify the statements he has made to the contrary. If he cannot do it, and of course he cannot do it, he must know that he cannot do it, surely he will not hesitate to say so, frankly. Mr. Wilson must know that every monopoly in the United States opposes the Progressive Party. If he challenges this statement, I challenge him in return, as is clearly my right, to name the monopoly that did support the Progressive Party, whether it was the Sugar Trust, the Steel Trust, the Harvester Trust, the Standard Oil Trust, the Tobacco Trust, or any other. Every sane man in the country knows well that there is not one word of justification that can truthfully be adduced for Mr. Wilson's statement that the Progressive Program was agreeable to the monopolies. Ours was the only program to which they objected, and they supported either Mr. Wilson or Mr. Taft against me, indifferent as to which of them might be elected so long as I was defeated. Mr. Wilson says that I got my idea with regard to the regulation of a monopoly from the gentlemen who form the United States Steel Corporation. Does Mr. Wilson pretend that Mr. Van Heis and Mr. Crowley got their ideas from the Steel Corporation? Is Mr. Wilson unaware of the elementary fact that most modern economists believe that unlimited, unregulated competition is the source of evils which all men now concede must be remedied if this civilization of ours is to survive? Is he ignorant of the fact that the Socialist Party has long been against unlimited competition? This statement of Mr. Wilson cannot be characterized properly with any degree of regard for the office Mr. Wilson holds. Why, the ideas that I have championed as to controlling and regulating both competition and combination in the interest of the people so that the people shall be masters over both have been in the air in this country for a quarter of a century. I was merely the first prominent candidate for president who took them up. They are the progressive ideas and progressive businessmen must in the end come to them for I firmly believe that in the end all wise and honest businessmen big and little will support our program. Mr. Wilson in opposing them is the mere apostle of reaction. He says that I got my ideas from the gentleman who formed the Steel Corporation. I did not. But I will point out to him something in return. It was he himself and Mr. Taft who got the votes and the money of these same gentlemen and of those in the Harvester trust. Mr. Wilson has promised to break up all trusts. He can do so only by proceeding at law. If he proceeds at law he can hope for success only by taking what I have done as a precedent. In fact what I did as president is the base of every action now taken or that can be now taken looking toward the control of corporations or the suppression of monopolies. The decisions rendered in various cases brought by my direction constitute the authority on which Mr. Wilson must base any action that he may bring to curb monopolistic control. Will Mr. Wilson deny this or question it in any way? With what grace can he describe my administration as satisfactory to the trusts when he knows that he cannot redeem a single promise that he has made to war upon the trusts unless he avails himself of weapons of which the federal government had been deprived before I became president and which were restored to it during my administration and through proceedings which I directed. Without my action Mr. Wilson could not now undertake or carry on a single suit against a monopoly and moreover if it had not been for my action and for the judicial decision in consequence obtained Congress would be helpless to pass a single law on the monopoly. Let Mr. Wilson mark that the men who organized and directed the Northern Securities Company were also the controlling forces in the very steel corporation which Mr. Wilson makes believe to think was supporting me. I challenged Mr. Wilson to deny this and yet he well knew that it was my successful suit against the Northern Securities Company which first efficiently established the power of the people over the trusts. After reading Mr. Wilson's book I am still entirely in the dark as to what he means by the new freedom. Mr. Wilson is an accomplished and scholarly man a master of rhetoric and the sentences in the book are well phrased statements usually inculcating a morality which is sound although vague and ill-defined. There are certain proposals already long set forth and practiced by me and by others who have recently formed the progressive party made by Mr. Wilson with which I cordially agree. There are however certain things he has said even as regards matters of abstract morality with which I empathetically disagree. For example in arguing for proper business publicity as to which I cordially agree with Mr. Wilson he commits himself to the following statement You know there is temptation in loneliness and secrecy haven't you experienced it? I have. We are never so proper in our conduct as when everybody can look and see exactly what we are doing. If you are off in some distant part of the world and suppose that nobody who lives within a mile of your home is anywhere around there are times when you adjourn your ordinary standards You say to yourself well I'll have a fling this time nobody will know anything about it if you are on the desert of Sahara you would feel that you might permit yourself well say some slight latitude of conduct but if you saw one of your immediate neighbors coming the other way on a camel you would behave yourself until he got out of sight The most dangerous thing in the world is to get off where nobody knows you I advise you stay around among the neighbors and then you may keep out of jail that is the only way some of us can keep out of jail I empathetically disagree with what seems to be the morality inculcated in this statement which is that a man is expected to do and is to be pardoned for doing all kinds of immoral things if he does alone and does not expect to be found out surely it is not necessary in insisting upon proper publicity to preach a morality of so basely material a character there is much more that Mr. Wilson says as to which I do not understand him clearly and where I condemn what I do understand in economic matters the course he advocates as part of the new freedom which means the old old freedom of leaving the individual strong man at liberty unchecked by common action to prey on the weak and the helpless the new freedom in the abstract seems to be the freedom of the big to devour the little in the concrete I may add that Mr. Wilson's misrepresentations of what I have said seem to indicate that he regards the new freedom as freedom to obey the ninth commandment but after all my views or the principles of the progressive party are of much less importance now than the purposes of Mr. Wilson these are wrapped in impenetrable mystery his speeches and writings serve but to make them more obscure if these attempts to refute his misrepresentations of my attitude towards the trusts should result in making his own clear then this discussion will have borne fruits of substantial value to the country if Mr. Wilson has any plan of his own for dealing with the trusts it is to suppress all great industrial organizations presumably on the principle proclaimed by his secretary of state four years ago that every corporation which produced more than a certain percentage of a given commodity I think the amount specified was 25% no matter how valuable its service should be suppressed the simple fact is that such a plan is futile in operation it would far more damage than it could remedy the progressive plan would give the people full control of and in masterful fashion prevent all wrongdoing by the trusts while utilizing for the public welfare every industrial energy and ability that operates to swell abundance while obeying strictly the moral law and the law of the land Mr. Wilson's plan would ultimately benefit the trusts and would permanently damage nobody but the people for example one of the steel corporations which has been guilty of the worst practices towards its employees is the Colorado fuel and iron company Mr. Wilson and Mr. Brian's plan would if successful merely mean permitting for such companies absolutely uncontrolled to monopolize every big industry in the country to talk of such an accomplishment as being the new freedom is enough to make the term one of contemptuous derision President Wilson has made explicit promises and the Democratic platform has made explicit promises Mr. Wilson is now in power with a Democratic Congress in both branches he and the Democratic platform have promised to destroy the trusts to reduce the cost of living and at the same time to increase the well-being of the farmer and of the working man which of course must mean to the profits of the farmer and the wages of the working man he and his party won the election on this promise we have a right to expect that they will keep it if Mr. Wilson's promises mean anything except the very emptiest words he has pledged to accomplish the beneficent purposes he avows by breaking up all the trusts and combinations and corporations so as to restore competition precisely as it was 50 years ago if he does not mean this he means nothing he cannot do anything else under penalty of showing that his promise and his performance do not square with each other Mr. Wilson says that the trusts are our masters now but I for one do not care to live in a country called free masters good the progressives are opposed to having masters kind or unkind and they do not believe that a new freedom which in practice would mean leaving for fuel and iron companies free to do what they like in every industry would be of much benefit to the country the progressives have a clear and definite program by which the people would be the masters of the trusts being their masters as Mr. Wilson says they are with practical anonymity the trusts supported the opponents of this program Mr. Taft and Mr. Wilson and they evidently dreaded our program infinitely more than anything that Mr. Wilson threatened the people have accepted Mr. Wilson's assurances now let him make his promises good he is committed if his words mean anything to the promise to break up every trust every big corporation perhaps every small corporation in the United States not to go through the motions of breaking them up but really to break them up he is committed against the policy of efficient control and mastery of the big corporations both by law and by administrative action in cooperation proposed by the progressives let him keep faith with the people let him in good faith try to keep the promises he has thus repeatedly made I believe that his promise is futile and cannot be kept I believe that any attempt sincerely to keep it and in good faith to carry it out will end in either nothing at all or in disaster but my beliefs are of no consequence Mr. Wilson is president it is his acts that are of consequence he is bound in honor to the people of the United States to keep his promise and to break up not nominally but in reality all big business all trusts all combinations of every sort kind and description and probably all corporations what he says is henceforth of little consequence the important thing is what he does and how the results of what he does square with the promises and prophecies he made when all he had to do was speak not to act appendix C the blame campaign in the House of Harper written by J. Henry Harper the following passage occurs Curtis returned from the convention in company with young Theodore Roosevelt and they discussed the situation thoroughly on their trip to New York and came to the conclusion that it would be very difficult to consistently support Blaine Roosevelt however had a conference afterward with Senator Lodge and evidently fell in line behind Blaine Curtis came to our office and found that we were unanimously opposed to the support of Blaine and with a hearty goodwill he trained his editorial guns on the plumed night of Mulligan letter fame his work was as effective and deadly as any fight he ever conducted in the weekly this statement has no foundation whatever in fact I did not return from the convention in company with Mr. Curtis he went back to New York from the convention whereas I went to my ranch in North Dakota no such conversation as that ever took place between me and Mr. Curtis in my presence and speaking to a number of men at the time in Chicago Mr. Curtis said you younger men can if you think right refuse to support Mr. Blaine but I am too old a Republican and have too long been associated with the party to break with it now not only did I never entertain after the convention but I never during the convention or at any other time entertained the intention alleged in the quotation in question I discussed the whole situation with Mr. Lodge before going to the convention and we had made up our minds that if the nomination of Mr. Blaine was fairly made we would with equal good faith support him end of appendices B and C this recording by Aaron Elliott St. Louis, Missouri end of autobiography of Theodore Roosevelt

How majorities can support minority languages
https://wikimania2018.wikimedia.org/wiki/Program In line with the new Wikimedia strategic direction concerning knowledge equity, we as a movement have an obligation to support minority languages, in order to empower marginalized communities to take part in the global commons, and to add their voices to the mix. This session will outline the work that is going on in Norway with the Northern Sami language and in Canada with the Atikamekw language, and explore shared challenges and experiences, as well as those that are unique to each project, and propose some methods and workflows that other chapters, user groups and other concerned parties can learn from and take part in.

Jean-Philippe from Wikimedia Canada and Wikimedia Canada is doing Aboriginal communities outreach projects and the goal is to reach Canadian Aboriginal communities and to familiarize indigenous languages speakers with Wikipedia and Jean-Philippe is also a member of the Sami advisory group Wikimedia Norway have and Johan Hagerl will tell you a little bit about that afterwards and this is Johan Hagerl from Wikimedia Norway he works as a community manager and is also in charge of the Northern Sami Wikipedia projects we have been working on since 2017 and the last person is not here who wanted to present that's Eddie from Bolivia I will do my best to be Eddie and present his slides and Eddie is based as I said in Bolivia and he works as the director of an organization called Rising Voices and Eddie is also part of the Sami advisory group we have okay so first out Johan Hagerl thank you all right so we committed Norway we are having a project to improve the Wikipedia in Northern Sami a lot of people don't know that Sami is actually not one language but a language group as you can see on the map there are nine different languages and arranging from two to twenty thousand speakers so a few of them are practically dead and they're spoken in Norway Russia Sweden and Finland and out of those nine languages and Northern Sami is the biggest one and approximately 90,000 of those who speak a Sami language speak Northern Sami so like yeah all the other languages are much smaller so we're thinking of doing maybe a project in one of the smaller languages but we're advised against it because the people who know those languages have more important stuff to do than write to Wikipedia like they need to write textbooks for kids and and stuff like that instead and the Sami languages are a in the Uralic language family so they're not related to Norwegian or Swedish at all they are related to Finnish but very distantly so there's no mutual intelligibility between them and the Sami people in Norway Sweden and Finland have something called a Sami parliament which is like a and you know how to explain it yeah it's sort of like the government for the Sami people and they get the money from the respective country governments every year and they allocate those money to like some purposes so when we started our project we decided on a two pronged approach the one goal main goal is to get more contributors to the Northern Sami Wikipedia and the other goal is getting more Sami content to we can meet the projects and we chose this approach because we know that getting more contributors can be hard so that shouldn't be the only goal we still want to have something to show for it in case we fail miserably so getting more content is also something we're doing so and on that we often rely on institutional partners which I'll talk about here so from the National Library they have something called a Sami bibliography which is a collection of you know all books about Sami people or in Sami languages that have been released in Norway and some other countries as well and there are actually 30,000 works in that bibliography so we're uploading all of those to Wikipedia and we also have the Norwegian mapping authority has like place names in Sami languages which we're also going to put on Wikipedia and we've got some image materials from the National Archive and yeah and there's also a Sami university where all the instruction is in the Northern Sami language and so we're hoping to like we're starting to establish some good ties with them to you know have hold editing courses and stuff like that and finally I've put the Sami advisory group here which is a group of experienced Wikimedians from other minor language and small language Wikipedia's that are helping us Wikimedia Norway with you know various just giving us feedback and yeah helping us in any way they can so the challenges for this project there are a few one of them is Norwegian station because the Norwegian government had a policy for like almost 100 years or something of trying to assimilate the Sami people like you know you probably know the story like taking kids out of their homes and putting them in faster homes or boarding schools or whatever and you know punishing them if they use their native languages so that's been going on in Norway and Sweden and Finland as well so we need to be you know sensitive to issues relating to that and just you know trying to be well actually as my last point about we are not native speakers so we're coming in as outsiders and that's sort of an added challenge with regards to Norwegian station because you need to be you know sensitive to cultural issues another issue is a distance because Norway is a big country and most of the Sami people live way up north while we have we're based in Oslo so it takes a lot of time to travel back and forth to do you know meetings and editing courses and stuff and also finally a an interesting challenge that I think might be a bit unique but maybe not is that people who know how to write Norden Sami they often get really well paid to do that to translate the government you know government websites and papers and stuff like that so a lot of the attitudes are like okay I want to you know write but I don't want to do it for free so why should I write on Wikipedia so we're actually thinking we need to catch them young like in high school or University yeah and some of the lessons we have are that we need to tap into like for other people who want to work on minority languages in their countries is it a need to tap into existing structures and using your existing skill sets so I mean if there are institutions or organizations for the native language or you know minority languages you should try to work with them as much as you can and like establish a good report there and also you need to use your existing skill sets but I don't mean like if your organization or whatever are doing a lot of glam stuff or yeah you need to like use those skills for for the good of the minority language as well like for us the National Library and the National Archive are longtime partners of ours and you know using them for for this project as well was just a natural next step and then I have meeting people face-to-face that one's a self-explanatory I think and there's persistence because this isn't done in a day or even a year so you need to like you know just keep at it even though it might seem difficult at times so yeah thank you so a good day run as Astrid said I'm a Jafilip from volunteer from Wikimedia Canada and Wikimedia of North American indigenous languages user group so in Canada we have it echoes a lot of what he said from Norway we have around 60 indigenous languages that are still alive speakers and it's ranging from 2 to 35,000 speakers so you can see the challenges with some of the languages currently we have out of those was 60 languages we only have three wikipedia that are existing outside of the incubator and only one of those three is active which is the atomic wikipedia which I will talk about today and most of the 60 languages are in danger because only the elders speak it and the younger generation don't speak it so why is it important I have a quote here from the Assembly of First Nation of Canada languages is the main tool permitting to enrich the culture to receive share and pass on knowledge from generation the key identity to identity and to conservation of the culture of a person is his ancestral language so that's where we come in so the project that we did with the wikipedia that's the name of the wikipedia it's kamek we started in 2013 we started in the kree wikipedia since it's kamek was in the kree family I wanted to avoid incubator for the reason that the previous speaker already talked about so I cheated and did the it's kamek in the kree wikipedia and the way we did it is we went in a high school and the computer teacher made the students write articles in it's kamek and just to avoid political issue we asked the student to write about sample stuff like a chair or a table so like that there was no issue about the politics or something else like that in 2016 the it's kamek community decided that they wanted their own wikipedia they didn't want to be part of the kree since they are a different culture so we move everything in the incubator and then finally last year we were able to move out of the incubator so here's a quote from one of the main contributor from the it's kamek is actually a teacher in that high school he said this is a way to pass unancestral knowledge using computers and it allows to preserve traditional practices and it is an educational tool for how so what's need to be done to create a new wikipedia that was a very hard work and it takes a long time so as he said we need persistence and patience so we need to have an active community of contributors so this is that minimum of three contributors that do a minimum of 11 contribution every month and then we need to have article obviously and then we need the hardest part was to translate media wiki because you need to translate the interface and some words don't exist yet in most of those languages so as the previous speaker said the wikipedia was not a good way a good place to do that so how they did it they went on a facebook group a private facebook group and they go chat and discuss and get consensus to get new words to to translate things such as categories was one of the artists work to translate because that's not a concept in the indigenous community is what what we consider we categorize knowledge it wasn't a concept for them so some advice you already said it meet in person and that's not to take it lightly because I started back in 2008 I think with the first another nation and he didn't go anywhere because I was doing everything online we created maybe three articles and translated some words but then it died out with that comic we went there we met them in person we trained them in person and then we got the trust that the previous speaker was talking about it's very important let them lead our own projects it's not our projects as he said we are outsider so we need to give them the control we need to let them make their own rules English wikipedia or the French wikipedia where I'm from we have our own rules but those rules doesn't apply don't apply to a new wikipedia there's five basic principles for wikipedia that's how everything else like you need a written reference that's not in the five basic principle so when when we arrived there then we told them that they can make their own rules for their own wikipedia then another advice is to get support and approval from their authorities so they have national counsel they have been government so it's important to have approval before we go in and try to be the the savior of their language you know what I mean so it's important to have their their support then we need to be flexible because what we think they need may not be what they need so for example we went to to see another nation called the Inuit in northeast Quebec and we wanted to do the same thing as the which is created the wikipedia in their language but then we were talking about and other wikimisia projects and what we talk about lingua libre I would say what it is in a couple slides and and that's where they catch on or something else that the wikipedia ready catch on it's to exit the French wikipedia and the English wikipedia to add the names of the toponyms the rivers the lakes the mountains in their language on the existing wikipedia okay so the last point we already talked about it so before coming here I asked them what is important what I should tell other people that want to do the same thing and then I asked three different people I got three three different answers now it's the same training training training and in person so we really need to go there and train them the challenges we already talked about it but one I want to to point out is oral tradition we talked about it a lot in this conference but there's nothing against oral sources in small wikipedia we have it in the it's chemical and it works it works really well they put the note they put the name of the elder and it works you can come see me if you have a question is lingua libre I will just say it very fast what it is it just to record what words in the native language and then we can add it to a wik tionary or they can use it for their own dictionaries and then another thing with that we did and it just to gather momentum and get the community together it's photography contest and you can see at the top right we do upload the workshop so that's easy easier for the community to take pictures and write articles but once they are in the wiki media sphere then maybe we can get them ok and write articles and and it's a way to share their knowledge to using pictures and I think that's it so we were over time so I'll try to do at this slide super fast from Latin America as you see there are approximately 522 indigenous people peoples they speak approximately 420 languages and make up around 10% of the population there are wikipedia projects in indigenous languages and a rising voices around wiki media foundation supported projects mapping project to learn about the current state of these wikipedia projects there are four official projects and 36 projects on incubator and these are the names of the four official projects and languages I will not try to pronounce them and I will skip to the recommendations that they gave me and what he told us was that while it was difficult to pinpoint the exact process in which these four official and the other incubator projects got started the mapping project concluded that none were started by native speakers most of them were started by well-meaning people who thought that by creating wikipedia in these languages that they would attract native speakers by doing so and for some of the projects non-native speakers that learned these indigenous languages as second languages were very active in the development and I skipped one so what they have been experimenting doing is creating a user group and these activities will help raise awareness and the visibility of the current projects especially on social media and as you see on the slide the user group will also complement the work being done by affiliates and as wiki mania is going on there is an editathon taking place in Guatemala city for the wiki wui I hope I say that right projects which has been in the incubator project status they received a rapid grant from the Wikimedia Foundation to run this editathon which included some pre-meeting activities and interface translation and this is an example of activities that the user group can help support especially in country like Guatemala where there is no Wikimedia affiliate okay thank you we have more questions we wanted to discuss so if we can go over time we will be very happy to do so or we can cut here so I prepared some questions for Sean Philip and Jon Hagel so let's take the first one and I will ask Sean Philip first what is your advice on the very first steps you need to take when you want to work with indigenous languages and Wikipedia where would you start so where where do you need to start if you want to is really to get involvement from the local community because you need local people you cannot do it and you need to go in person so my advice is to start with do use our model because it work for us it's to go in the high school where the language is spoken and use the teacher as your partner and then and then ask the student to write content because after that when you have a basic for the Wikipedia some articles and the students are involved then you can you have something to show to when you go see the National Council or the Tribal Council like you have something to show if you just go with good idea and you show them the French Wikipedia or English Wikipedia it'll be over the hair that gets too much and rightly so they cannot achieve the same thing so my advice is to start small and then you have something to show and then you can expand thank you it seems like we have a couple more minutes so we will take some more questions so you know girl how do one best approach the communities you want to work with and I think Sean Philippe had some ideas and maybe you have some more from our project I think a good idea to approach people are to you know show them what is already like in our case the Northern and some of the Wikipedia already exists and it has seven thousand articles which is pretty good but the activities is very low because most of the articles were created by formerly active contributors who are not active anymore so we can show them what already exists and show them okay this is how you can contribute you just click edit and you fix this you delete what's wrong and you know just show them how easy it is and in our case it's it's easier than in the case because the Wikipedia already exists so you don't have to go through all the hurdles of the incubator and you know stuff like that so yeah yeah if we use the visual editor I'll let you both answer when I'm showing people how to edit the northern some of the video I show the visual editor at first to show them that this is how easy it gets it's super easy but if you want to do more advanced stuff I you can use the source editor but normally I skip the source editor stuff unless they tell me that they're you know super experienced with computers or programmers or something like that for in incubator there's some challenges with the visual editor because as the previous speaker said you need a prefix and does everything else you need to teach so we and when we started the project the visual editor were not implemented in the incubator so we didn't use it but maybe in the future we will because I think it's easier for everybody but it creates other challenges because of the prefixes and everything else that is in the incubator do you have it can I ask one more question do you have any notions about how people use uses are they aware of the Wikipedia's how are they popular or how you have any comments on for this so your question was if the people are already aware that there is Wikipedia in their language right yeah so for the northern some people northern some of people I don't think it's very well known that there is actually Wikipedia in northern some we were at the festival last week in northern Norway and we had like the front page of northern some we could be open on the computer and people are like oh there's a Wikipedia in northern some me I didn't know that and these were you know some people and you know they're all you know they all have a high high standard living standard living so they all have computers and phones and use the internet a lot but still they didn't know so yeah I guess we need to do some more PR work as well to make it more known so in our case every everywhere we went with whichever is the etiquette make or they knew they said the same thing they all know the Wikipedia they all use it in French and or English which whichever is their second language so but they didn't know they can create their own and how we get it known that's really true their Facebook group because they were really the community is all together talking in Facebook so that's how we promoted it and I went fast in the project but the idea was the high school student were writing the articles and the end goal is to use the written content so the kids in elementary school have some written material in their language to use so Wikipedia will get known like that and we they also made the shows about it in the local community radio promoting and the photographic contest is actually a good a good vehicle to make it known because people are happy to take a photographies and have the chance to win some prices and then they get to know Wikipedia in their language at the same time thank you so thank you for coming to our session and I think the next speaker is waiting thank you

I wanted to start this video off by saying something controversial. Gasp. Fighting games are hard. But they're even harder when you might not know how to play the characters that are on your screen. That's why I've invited D.O.D. today because, you know, I'll say it, D.O.D. I think you know how to play Dragon Ball Fighters. But do you know how to play with a full team of random characters? Get on over here. Come on. We're running the first to five randomly. And we're going to switch characters after every match, by the way. You ready for that? First to five, ready? You just tell me when to press X on this first one. All right. Three, two, one. Press X. Damn, you're so lucky. Three, two, one. Press X. All right. A little, a little miss for me, but I know you're trying to learn Bardock nowadays. No spoilers. Three, two, one. Press X. Oh my God. What is this? I'll take my team. You can go through and make the assist whatever you want. I'm thinking, honestly, I mean, this is perfect. Triple A all day. What is going on over here? If I'm uncomfortable, I'll force my comfort. What? I got what you were trying to say. So hold on. Did you say we're randoming after every single match? Absolutely. Every single match, we're going to, it's first to five, bro. Okay. All right. What should we do? Nah, first to five. It's going to be, I want this to be a nice long video. Look down at the timer. If it's short, that means somebody got swept. God, this is going to, hey, bro, don't look at that timer. Cause don't look now. I got point yamcha on the screen. Oh, starting it off with a nice dash in light, light check. Come on, bro. I didn't even think about that. I don't know what that was going to do. Even, even you didn't know what you were doing. Or genuinely, this is, I think my first or second time ever playing Android 18. And I'm pretty sure the other time was also with some random bite. Yeah. The other time was also forced upon me. Oh my God. I'm getting cooked by just basic mechanics. I, my yamcha, my best character by far. I hate how long that takes to actually hurt me. I just die real quick. So here's what I'm going to do is I'm not going to die, but I am going to die. So I hate to hear what I was thinking was maybe I could just use yamchas assist again for a while. Stop that. What do you know about Zamasu? Cause I know a little bit. Bro, he's just like sell in regards of like I learned him at one point. I don't remember anything about him now. Oh God. Zamasu, honestly, Zamasu is a character. I've always really wanted to be that guy with. I agree. Like if I could go back in time, let me fly away. If I could make it so I was like that one guy character. Why can't I fly? What's the input? I don't know what a quarter circle back s. All right. I just activated my barrier or you can also after some moves if you hit like s the standard, it'll force fly after. That was a quality of life buff. That wasn't always in the game. Keep us. Yeah, I was just I was updating you on the Zamasu facts and trivia just in case a trivia night. It comes up, right? I know you go. I'll be ready. Yeah, I do bro. I'm a regular. Bro, I'm sad. I'm still getting Andrew 18 has been by far your MVP. All right. How do I do like the Bardock into punch into? I don't think you can into punch. Bro, stop overheading me. You're ugly. Never. Never. Hold on. Bro barrier. He hit the whole group. I only did this so I got to try to get 18, but she slipped away from my fingers. But she got away. Get back in here and fight Zamasu. I got to show you what the I got to show you what gods are all about dying to keep last, of course. I mean, what other option do I have? Bro, can somebody get Goku out of here? No, no. That's so stupid. That just looks stupid, man. Well, I hate this. The mechanic changes because they just make anything possible. Everything possible. Who was that? He was Kevin. Kevin. Kevin Garnett. Inspiring message. I just thought the way he said it's like bro, you I don't think I can win an NBA championship. I don't know what I pressed, but good Lord. I think it just got me killed. Yeah. And I'm going to stay super safe actually. I'm keeping a cannon. If you would have done level one into level one into level three, I'd be dead. Yeah. I just kind of I kind of messed it up this time. I really messed it up this time. Don't superdash. You didn't wire. You're quite the patient gamer. I'll give it up. I may be ugly, but I'm an ugly winner. Hell yeah. Let's go reset these teams. That's one. Oh, you have an interesting team there. Bro, this always just reminds me of like the characters that I've never played. Bro, I got some gas in your knowledge that I have just never played. I am so happy. I got beer is he's definitely just because they gave him that little level three change. He has gone way up in my enjoyability tier list. Oh, that means he's gone up in my annoyed annoying to fight list. Bro, he's he's he's a solid like B to a enjoyability right now. Just tell me. Tell me is it two three six or is it two one four for the command grab with 16 to one he does in combos and stuff for you. It's two three six. It's behind that would be back. I'm free to help out with four. Yes, depending on what I'm going to be honest. My weakest trade as a fighting game player is I am always I do not remember that like I only remember what I'm on right now like if I'm right side, I'm right side right I'm stuttering and I got to do my normal combos and I must knees do a little setup to H. Okay. All right, bro. You didn't have to you didn't have to hit me with the heavy like that. Hope you don't reflect that, bro. Don't don't take beers away from me. That's when bunkers ever since you did that joke. That is the spot. It's been tormenting me ever since I wish that orbs could stay though slam. I'll push me over here slam time. Oh, yeah. Just mash it. Just mash it out when Krillin's this low. Anything's up. Oh, whoa. I made a mistake. Oh, whoa. I made a mistake. Oh, what are you doing? Two to S. Raging quick. Wait, bro. Oh, did you want to look like I buried that with my dick, bro? Like it just looked like he was just out and about God. You know you didn't and you felt like a runescape character too. Right. It was a nice slow death animation for you. And it's Kakarot by the way to me. I'm just hitting random. But now I'm just having a good time. No, okay. I'm struggling me. Don't jump over my beam. Don't come and grab me. Okay. How did you predicted that before I even went for the input? Yeah. My thumbs were traveling on the way to the. I thought you were gonna come and grab me in return. I thought you were gonna say, you know what? Get command grab three bars, but you ain't trying to spend it. I know you. Damn. Shit buttons for real. I am. I'm doing everything to just keep you locked up full script. How fast is this? I mean, it's pretty fast. I wasn't ready for the raw speed bump. Usually like the answer used to be like run around faster now. So I don't know what to do, bro. The answer used to be run around, but now it's like just block, just hold that. I thought I was gonna go under you. I ain't gonna lie. I mean, I got answers for that. Oh, no. Oh, no. I'm an idiot now, bro. It was supposed to be like crazy. Oh, yeah. It was supposed to be like crazy. Stop. It's still is crazy. I was making you. I know. I know. I know. Why am I bad at beers? Bro, cross up into this. Bro, I'm not done yet. Barrier. Bro, what did the barrier mean? What did the barrier mean if you're just beating both of our asses? Put me down. Oh, I could have done so much, so much better. So much better to your character. Isn't this what they do? I don't even know the inputs for this. This is what they're doing. That looked aggressive. 17 had no life in his eyes when he hit you with that. My sister, my sister. I apologize. I kind of don't like that. You're just beating my ass right now. But I'm going to have to beat your ass. I am tall as hell. You just got hit on the way up. It appears I. Bro, get off of me. Bro, die. Bro, you don't play with me like this. I don't like that. You have a full screen command grab now, man. That is just. Damn, I don't know. Bro, I thought it was going to be rocket punch. No way. I'm just going to do this. That cool. No. Well, what did you press button? Yeah. I thought you had to recover. Bro, I thought so too. But I tried to input anyway. Turns out it works. And now that's too low. I was waiting for you to gently come down like a 2-8 you. Bro thought I was going to float down and lovingly into his arms. Oh, that's how I was mashing. Thank you. Hey, bro, stop mashing, bro. Hey, somebody, somebody had to be responsible. Three, two, one, X. Three, two, one, X. Three, two, one, X. Three, two, one, X. Three, two, one, X. Three, two, one, X. Oh, brother, not a hand. Bro, I wish that was you. You know, I'm going over here to get that CSA double C. Nah, I'm going to bro. Go shut up. Oh, my team. I remember it was it was blue piccolo and Super Saiyan. Oh, that does seem pretty right. Yeah. I think I'm going to go crazy this time. I almost I was going to say I almost want to just cut the losing and just go. Damn you and bonkers. That's that's like the whole set. Anyway, I feel like piccolo, bro. I don't know what you any way me into a 2M, bro. I did. I was going to say I don't know why I feel like your piccolo is crazy. I feel like you just never but we'll see. Oh, no, that can't I can't just do that normally. Let me let me get a level one, bro. It looks like my level one Gohan's feeling a little clean today. My Gohan works on RNG like every now and then my Gohan's crazy every now and then my Gohan's crazy. Uh-huh. Oh, hey, hey, hey. No, okay. Okay. I deserve that. I definitely fell lovingly into your arms with a heavy and I wasn't prepared for that. If I just down tech, what do you do? If I just dp, what do you do? If I dp twice, what do you do? I flip you off. Why did I drop that? Because I don't know how to play Gohan. That's why damn you know how to do more to me. Hey, bro. No, I don't. Hey, bro. No, I do not. Let's go even do man. Oh, okay. I have never played piccolo in my entire life. He's a cool character, man. He's a cool character. He looks cool, but I don't know anything about bro. Oh, he's struggling. Oh, come on, man. Oh, and you, you fraud in me, Brian. Trust in you. I took my hand off the controller. He is one of those dumb moves that don't hit down even though you're getting heavy. So dumb. Hey, you hate, you hate that when that happens. Why? I'm just going to go over here. I'm just going to leave. I'm leaving Gohan in until you force him out. Can you, can you force me to use him? Yeah, I got to open. I got a weakness on the team. So I'm just trying to avoid. Oh my God, man. It is on strict CSS. Bro got some awesome back to back. I don't know why. Oh, why did I hit a button? All right. Hold on. Let me recover. Let me reflect. Oh, you know what the coolest thing about Thomas? Who is that? I actually forgot until just now. This, this, watch this sweet little dash. Were you ready? You ever seen this one? What? Oh, damn. Bro, he went crazy. I don't know how to use it in combos, bro, but I'm not a go-bongers for real. And I got to stop. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no remix. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, please put me down. I'm going to have to because I don't know anything to do with them, bro. Oh, you found his order. I throw one fucking ball right next to you. Zoner zoning. Oh my God, I'm crazy. All right. Oh my God, it's not spamming at zoning. Oh my God, I'm nuts. Oh my God, going bonkers. Oh my God, I've, I've, I've somehow folded my way down to just hit worst case scenario, by the way. But actually, I know how to play here because I know how to play every character in this God day. You got see assist on Super Saiyan Goku, whatever, whatever happened to a nice beam assist. Is that, is that enough? Oh, you would absolutely countered. Yeah, right? That's a first. A first. Well, see, do it back. But I knew you would find the conveyor right. Do I knew it? Hey, hey man. Hey, let's stop hitting me like that. I'll just say, I don't know any of you are the ones that get me. I can win this. I can win this. Don't, don't, don't do it. I know what you're saying. That was it. That was what I thought you were thinking. Oh, I can't. How do you open people up with this guy? But you know, Patrick, when he comes back to his home and he just goes, who are you people? That's me with his controls, but I still win. God damn it. I just one, twoed my way to victory. Bro, I'm sick of you. Square, square, square. Why square, square? Oh, I just combined. Oh, no, we're both irresponsible. Well, we're on par sec. We can actually get out of this. Oh, we are lucky. And can I not get hit this time? Three, two, one, go. Oh, one. Can I please get hit? Three, two, one, go. I'm sick of some awesome being in every match. Three, two, one, go. Oh man. You got a, you got a. I'm sick. You got a fine team right there. I'm sick. Being a fine teams. I actually really like my team other than Genemba. I do not know how to play Genemba. You saw Krillin and you got hard, bro. Just say it. Krillin and Beerus. I had to go through the sea, bro. I'm desperate. I can't. I can't round them into anyone bloody head. I'm just hoping I hit a target of mine. Well, you shouldn't have done. You shouldn't. You shouldn't. I never mind. I'm trying to get a guy. Are you superdash? Oh, yes, you can. Thank you. Thank you. He, he just got himself a card. I didn't even think about it. I appreciate it. That's why that's why you're a good friend of mine. Bro, bro. That's a guy. I knew it. Get you. Don't just don't you dare run from me. Oh, I'm not going to be able to call you. Damn it. You'll be there. You'll be there. The only thing I could do is just let you beat me up. I got a lot of bar, bro. You, you bought me a lot of time. Oh, bro. The question is, what are you going to slip up? What are you going to make your mistake? Is it right here? You're not going anywhere, bro. The triangle combo. I just gave you leeway. Oh, damn. And here I was going bonkers, bro. Damn, why? Why? Keppel's got the worst uses. It's pretty bad for her. I'm not going to lie. I haven't really even noticed you using it. God damn, bro. Can I just get lucky? All that work for me to leave. Oh, damn it. You thought I was a goal at that slide. I'm a man of sheer will. Yeah. Oh my God. Crazy. Yeah, you better give it up. Give up on the dream. Give up on your dream and die. I don't want to give up. I'm not going to give up. I give up. I fail for you. You, you, you. The Hakaia was just a petty trick by you, bro. You just knew. You knew that I couldn't resist it. I was like, oh, no, now he's going to Hakaia me. Oh, no. This is bad. No. All right. How would you play Jim? How would you do the green combo? How do you do that? How do I do this green combo? Brother. Nice. Well, how to damns super say in suplex. Chill, chill, chill, chill. I know a little something. I know a little something. That's not the combo. No, I don't know the combo. I just know this. Nice, bro. I just know this drops everything. I don't know what's happening. I don't remember how to spit the little. Oh, I remember. Bro. Oh, you were just killing me. I thought you were doing it. You would work. I thought you was doing Kefla oki, man. Here I was Kefla oki. I don't even know how to do the other timbers. Bro, I just realized like three seconds ago. I've only played like three characters in this game. Bro. Bro does not have the rubber. All right. All right. So what's not going to happen is I'm not going to lose with Prima. I don't, I don't care if I got one health bar left. You saw my jab. Drop it. You saw my jab. What's up? It appears you've thrown. I threw. Embarrassing. Damn. Damn is right, bro. Embarrassing. Lost with Krillin. I wouldn't lose with my man. That's all I'm saying. Give me my man. I'm going first this time. Three, two, one, go. Go. Girl. Go. Oh my God. Three, two, one, go. No, just great. I would take your team, bro. I would take your team. Team SWAT, bro. You do care. Oh, give me. Get this goddamn cape off of me. I don't wear that during fights. Bro, stop smiling at me like that. Weirdo, you freak. Well, I was sorry to keep you waiting. Damn. Next time I'll keep you waiting a little longer. All right. Oh, Zoner. Well, bro, get your filthy hands off of me. See you, sister. Now I know you desperate. Hmm, bro. I don't know what I've never played. Yomcha either. Oh, damn. I've learned that I've only played two characters like as of three seconds ago. Hey, I'm kind of a little piccolo all star, bro. Put me on the piccolo globetrotters. It's me and hook, bro. Weirdo's out here, bro. We're the same skill level piccolo for sure. Oh, damn. Damn. Well, there I go. There I go. I'm pretty vanilla. I don't know. No, she's got to. I hate these characters who's fucking down buttons. Bro, just mash anger. Mash his way into an autocombo pickup. I hate it here. Don't don't. Damn. I wasn't ready for piccolo to die. How do I do this? Do I just mash it? I just hold the direction and mash it for you. I would just hold down and I would just hold down and mash it. Why? Oh, brother. Oh, brother. The rules are reversed. This is kind of crazy. I'm uncomfortable. Bro, I hate it. Who this was actually going to be my main when fires came out. I was like, yo, I'm going to go bonkers on hit. I actually unironically said that. I thought I was going to be the hit player. Rob, the only reason it didn't happen is because I thought he would take too long to learn. I'm matching for. I don't know what to do with him. I don't know what to do with young toe. We'll think, bro. I mean, bro, I this is the stance. Two, three, six, eight. We'll think this two, three. Yeah, two, three, six. Yeah, just anybody. L medium. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The medium one will get you behind him, though. So yes, I did. No, bro. You're not doing anything. I think what makes me the most with your hit is he doesn't do anything. He just stands there. My hit just stands there and jabs because that's all I know I didn't do. Well, I was hit for a second. Well, I was hit for a second, but I'm back now. Put me to fuck my bad. Yeah, yes, my little song and dance word for you fell for the oldest trick in the book. I I yes. Yes, I hate this. I hate the situation. I'm actually pretty comfortable with this. Now, granted, I was pretty comfortable with the Krillin situation, too. And that just didn't work out how like how I would have wanted it to. Oh, but this is beautiful. They made that shit faster, bro. I'm just gonna spark you. I don't you don't get any free time, bro. You get no free time, bro. A little free time. Absolutely not. Do you understand what patch we're playing on right now? Yeah. You understand the options I have right now? And use a bitch. Yes. Yes. Big come out huge. Oh, and you fell for the oldest trick in the book. I suppose. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much do. Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. I was just trying something. I didn't know what it was, bro. Just spit out a homie drop. No. You changed. Here we are. I changed because that Krillin loss was humiliating, but I'm not homie dropping after that. God, bro, that humiliation, that experience I had. So what? You need one more? I need one more. Clutch it out video, bro. Oh my God. Please just give me one of my characters one time in my life. Five, four, three, two, one. I'm just you got it. You got it. You got it. Oh, gee. We went this whole video without what are you getting? Like one of your characters one of my characters, bro. I'm really playing random. You playing like once upon a time. I need you. Hey, bro. The only thing matching in my team is that we're all winners. Oh, you also got down to two. What's the Cybermen to like the two, three, six, H. Yeah, yeah, it's backwards. Two, one, four. Okay. Three, six, H is the EX. I mean that you got to program yourself. If you do it standard, he'll be pretty good process program. Like it takes thought. Anyway, absolutely. I mean the way I like this. Oh my good heavens. I the goddamn game almost ended just there. Bro, I swear they said they sped up Napa's planting animation, but it feels even longer. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong. Where's my little buddy? He's being resistant, by the way. Hold on. Hey, whoa, whoa. You were supposed to help. He was supposed to help. He was throwing. Put me down. Bro, you know, Dean Gohan has insane bombo loops that are so easy. I don't know any of them though. Bro, they are so easy. I had to learn a few of them. Oh, no armor, armor. I'm not I'm not plus. Okay, I did not know that. That was that was a little Napa factoid. I was unbeknownst stuff. Please. And there it goes. Wait, that does not hit. You got to call somebody else. Yeah, I know. This is my way of saying hello. Oh, give me that. What's the mix? No mix. I just got hit by simple shit. What is that? I'm not going to lose this. Am I? I feel like I'm just playing bad. My fundamentals are terrible. Bro, that beam should have been more active. That's all I'm saying is just me. Okay. I'll take that. I used to have a pretty mean Android 17 to be honest. Chill out, bro. I definitely used to have a pretty mean 17, but now you got to put some on the purple go things kind of a hit color for you. Look at my guy. He's pretty clean. It's pretty clean. Oh my God. I could see. I could see that in some alternate universe. That's just how go tanks looks evil go tank shows up wearing that damn go tanks. Blast her beam up in a barrier for me appears. I've been mixed. Oh, no. I put myself in the corner. How do you play cooler? I don't know anybody. Bro, I can't play we've reached stage five of the random selective video. Wow. Oh, you had a you had a crack eventually do anything else. You had to crack eventually. We all we all knew it's just a matter of time. I was leading you back to the floor. I thought I was doing a I thought I was doing a polite thing. You're ugly because you messed up and it hit me. Mix up mix up. Oh my God. Bro, it's like playing characters you don't know makes you feel like you'd never played this game before in your life. I know it's a fresh experience, bro. So what I'm asking you to do is who who have you played today that you're going to buckle down and learn, bro? Who am I going to see you in training? Who's the next hit? Who's the next Jim Ember? None of the above. All right. I like my characters. Stop. Well, you're not even doing anything. Well, I'm twirling, but I'm too fast for that. I'm going to float over. And that's a block off. I said, damn, that's a big beam you got there. But I stay I love. Thanks for the game. You set me up. You set me up. You set me up. You knew damn well you got a video with all these characters, bro. Fuck you, bro. I mean, I have definitely recorded a video with every single character in the game, but that doesn't mean I'm good with any of them. Yeah, at least know what they do. Well, true. But I mean, hey, if we were ever going to do a series together, I'll beat your ass next time. That's what I'm saying, bro. We both got to get better with random characters because what if one day one of us starts a series like that? We don't know. We don't know. Anyway, like and subscribe. Thank you for watching the video. Hopefully you enjoyed it and I will see you in the next one. Bye.

from the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. It's theCUBE, covering UiPath. Forward 4, brought to you by UiPath. Welcome back to theCUBE's coverage of UiPath. Forward 4, live from the Bellagio in Las Vegas. I'm Lisa Martin with Dave Vellante. We're here all day today and tomorrow. We're going to talk about process mining next. We've got two guests here. Mike Engel is here, Intelligent Automation and Process Intelligence Leader at PWC. And Ryan McBand, the SBP of Growth at UiPath. Gentlemen, welcome to the program. Thank you, Lisa. Thank you. So Ryan, I'm going to start with you. Talk to us about process mining. How does UiPath do it differently? And what are some of the things being unveiled at this event? Yeah, so look, I would tell you, it's actually more than process mining. And hopefully not only you, but others saw this this morning with Perom. It's really about the full capabilities of that discovery suite. And which obviously process mining is part of. But it starts with task capture. So going out and actually working with subject matter experts on a process, accounts payable, accounts receivable, order to cash. Digitally capturing that process or how they believe it should work or execute across one's environment, right, Mike? And then from there, actually validating or verifying with things or capabilities like process mining, giving you a full digital x-ray of actually how that process is being executed in the enterprise, showing you process bottlenecks for things like accounts payable, showing you days outstanding, maverick buying so that you can actually pinpoint and do a few things. Fix your process, right? Where a process should be fixed. Fix your application, because it's probably not doing what you think it is. And then third and where the value comes is in our platform of which process mining is a capability, our RPA platform, really moving directly to automations, right? And then having the ability with even task mining to drill into a specific bottleneck, capturing keystrokes, clicks, and then moving to with both of those, process mining and task mining into automation hub as part of our discovery platform as well. Being able to crowdsource, prioritize all of those potential, if you will, just capabilities of automations and saying, okay, let's go and prioritize these, these deliver the greatest value and executing across them. So as much as it's about process mining, it's actually the whole entire discovery suite of capabilities that differentiates UI path from other RPA vendors as the only RPA vendor that delivers process mining, task mining, and this discovery suite as part of our enterprise automation platform. Such a critical point, Ryan, right? I mean, it's multidimensional, right? It's not just one component to it. It's not just process mining or task mining. It's the combination that's really impactful. So I agree with you 100%. So one of the things that people who watch our shows know from like a broken record on this, the early days of RPA, I called it paving the cow path and that was good because somebody knew the process. They just repeat it. But the problem was the process wasn't necessarily the best process as you just described, right? So when you guys made the acquisition of process goal, they said, ah, okay, now I'm starting to connect the dots. And now, you know, a couple of years on we're starting to see that come together. And this is what I think is most misunderstood about UI path. And I wonder from a practitioner's perspective, if you can sort of fill in some of those gaps is that it's different from a point tool. It's different from a productivity tool. You know, like Power Automate, I'll just say it, that's running in Azure cloud. That's cool. Or a vertically integrated part of some ERP stack. It's a horizontal play that is end to end, which is a bigger automation agenda. It's bold, but it's potentially huge. $60 billion to am, I think that's understated. Maybe you could, from a practitioner's perspective, share with us kind of the old way and kind of the new way. Well, obviously we all made a lot of investments in this space early on to determine what should we be automating in the first place, right? I mean, we even went so far as we have platforms that will transcribe these kind of surveys and discussions that we're having with our clients, right? But at the end of the day, all we're learning is what they know about the process, what they as individuals know about the process. And that's problematic. Once we get into the kind of the next phase of actually developing something, we miss something, right? Because we're trying to do this rapidly. So I think what we have now is really this opportunity to have data-driven insights. And our clients are really grabbing onto that idea that it's good to have kind of a sense of what they think they do, but it's more important to have a sense of what they actually do, right? Are you seeing, in the last year and a half, we've seen the acceleration of a lot of things. There's some silver linings, but we've also seen the acceleration in automation as a mandate. Where is it in terms of a priority that you're seeing with customers? And are there any industries that you're seeing that are really leading the edge here? Well, I do see it as a priority, right? And of course, in the role that I have, obviously everybody I talk to, it's a priority for them. But I think it's kind of changing. People are understanding that it's not just a sense of, as Ryan was pointing out, it's not just a sense of getting an understanding of what we do today. It's really driving it to that next step of actually getting something impactful out the other end. And so clients are starting to understand that. And I like to categorize them, there's three types of clients, right? There's starters, there's stallers, and those that want to scale. And we're seeing a lot more on the other ends of this now, where clients are really getting started and they're getting a good sense that this is important for them because they know that identifying the opportunities in the first place is the most difficult part of automation. And that's what's stalling the programs. And then on the other end of the spectrum, we've got these clients that are saying, hey, I want to do this really at scale. It's going to help us do that. And it's quite a challenge. How do I build a pipeline of automations, right? So I've had success in finance and accounting. Fantastic. How do I take this to operations? How do I take this to supply chain? How do I take this to HR? And when I do that, it all starts with, as Wendy Batchelder, chief data officer at VM, or I would say, and as a customer, it starts with data, but more importantly, process, right? So focusing on process and where we can actually deliver automation. So it's not just about those insights, it's about moving from insights to actionable next steps. And that is where we're seeing this convergence, if you will, take place, as we've seen it many times before. I mentioned I worked at Cisco in the past. We saw this with VoiceOverIP converging on the network. We saw this at VMware, who I know you guys have spoken to multiple times, when it moved from a hypervisor to including NSX with the network, to including cloud management and also vSAN for storage and converging in software. We're seeing it too with process, really, and instead of kids in clipboards, as they used to call it, right, in many Six Sigma and Lean workshops with whiteboards and sticky papers to actually showing people within really days how a process is being executed within their organization and then suggesting here's where there's automation capabilities go execute against them. So Ryan, this is why sometimes I scoff at the TAM analysis. I get you got to do the TAM analysis, you have to communicate to Wall Street, but basically what you do is you pull out IDC or Gartner data, which is very stovepipe, and you kind of say, okay, we're in this market now. It's the convergence of these markets. It's cloud, it's containers, it's IS, pass, it's SaaS, it's blockchain, it's automation. They're all coming together to form this. It sounds like a buzzword, but it's digital matrix, if you will. And it's how well you leverage that digital matrix which defines your digital business. So talk about the role that automation, generally, RPA specifically, process mining specifically, play in a digital business. Do you want to take that mic or do you want me to take it? We can both do it, how about that? Yeah, perfect. Yeah, so I'll start with it. Right, I mean, it all is about convergence at this point. There are a number of platform providers out there, including UiPath, that are kind of teaching us that. And oftentimes we're led by the software vendors, right, in terms of how we think of it. But what we know is that there's no one solution. We went down the RPA path, lots of clients, and got a lot of excitement and a lot of impact. But if you really want to drive it broader, what clients are looking at now, it's what is the ecosystem of tools that we need to have in place to make that happen. And from my perspective, it's got to start with really process intelligence. Well, and I would say too, if you look at digital transformation, it was usually driven from an application, right? Really? And what I think customers found was that, hey, I'm going to name some folks here, put everything in SAP and we'll solve all your problems. Larry Ellison will tell you, put everything into Oracle and we'll solve all your problems. Salesforce, now I'm a sales person. I've never used an out of the box Salesforce dashboard in my life to run my business, because I want to run it the way I want to run it, right? Having said that though, they would say the same thing, put everything into our platform and we'll make sure that we can access it and you can use it everywhere and we'll solve all of your problems. I think what customers found is that that's not the case, right? So they said, okay, where are there other ways? Yes, I've got my application doing what it's doing. I've improved my process. But hang on, there's things that are repeatable here that I can remove to actually focus on higher level orders. And that's where UI path comes in. We've kind of had a bottoms up swell, but I would tell you that as we deliver ROI within days or weeks versus potentially years and with a heavy, heavy investment upfront, we're able to do it. We're able to then work with our partners like PwC to then demonstrate with business process modeling the ability to do it across all those, as I call silos of excellence in an organization to deliver true value in a timeline with integrated services from our partner to execute and deliver on ROI. So you mentioned some of the great software companies that have been created over the years. One you didn't mention, but I want you to comment on it is service now. Because essentially McDermott's trying to create the platform of platforms. It's all about workflow and service management. They bought an RPA company, hey, we got this too, but it's still a walled garden. It's still the same concept is put everything in here. So my question is, how are you different? Yeah, look, I mean, we're going to integrate with customers who want to integrate, right? Because we're an open platform and that's the right approach. We believe there will be some overlap and there'll be some choices to be made, right? Instead of that top down different approach, which may be a little bit heavy and large investment upfront with varied results as far as what that looks like. Ours is really kind of a bottoms up. And I would tell you too, if you look at our community, which is a million and a half, I believe strong now and growing, it's really about that practitioner and those people that have embraced it from the bottom up that really change how it gets implemented. And you don't have what I used to call is the white blood cells pushing back when you're trying to say, hey, let's take it from this finance and accounting to HR to supply chain to the other side to the organization saying, hey, look, be part of this instead of, no, you will do. Yeah, there's no, at least that I know of, there's no SAP or Salesforce freemium. You can't try it before you buy. And the entry price is way higher, right? I mean, generally, I mean, I guess Salesforce not necessarily, but I can get, I can taste automation for well under $100,000. I mean, I can get in for, I bet you most of your customers started at $25,000 or $50,000 departmental deployments. I mean, is that- It's exactly, bottoms up, grounds up. That's exactly right. And it's really that approach, which is much more like an Atlassian, I would tell you. And it's really getting to the point where we obviously, and I'm saying this, I work at UiPath, we make really good software. And so, you know, out of the box, it's getting easier and easier to use. It all integrates, which makes it seamless. The reason people moved to RPA first was because they got tired of bouncing between applications to do a task. Now we deliver this enterprise automation platform where you can go from process discovery to crowd sourcing and prioritizing your automations with your pipeline of automations into studio, into creating those automations, into testing them, and back again, right? We give you the opportunity not to leave the platform and extract the most value out of our, what we call enterprise automation platform, inclusive of process mining, inclusive of testing, and all those capabilities, document understanding, which is also mine, and it's fantastic. It's very differentiated from others that are out there. What's about having the right framework in place, right, from an automation perspective, right? And I think that's a little bit different from what you would expect from the SAPs of the world, so. Mike, where are you seeing, in the large organizations that you work with, we think of what you describe as the automation pipeline, where are some of the key priorities that you're finding in large organizations with what's in that pipeline and in what order? Yeah, no, it's interesting, because every time we have a conversation, whether it's internal or with our clients, we come up with another use case for this type of technology. Obviously, when we're having the initial conversations, what we're talking about is really automation, right? How do we stuff that pipe with automation? But we have clients that are just saying, hey, listen, I'm trying to carve out of a parent company, and what I need to do is document all of my processes in a meaningful way that I can, at some point, take action on, right? So there's meaningful outcomes. Whether it be a shared services organization that is looking to outsource all different types of use cases, so prioritizing is, I think, it's about impact, and the quickest way to impact seems to be automation. Is it fair to say, can I look at UiPath as automation infrastructure? Is that okay, or do you guys want to say, oh, we're an application? And the reason I ask, so then you get an answer, is if you look at the great infrastructure plays, they all had a role, the DBA, the CCIE, Cisco, the cloud architect, the VMware admin, you've been at all of them, Ryan, but so is there a role emerging here? And if it's not plumbing or infrastructure, I know, okay, that's cool, but of course, correct me on the infrastructure comment, and then is there a role emerging? You know, I think the difference between UiPath and some of the infrastructure companies is you used to take, Dave, years to give an ROI, right? Really, you'd invest in infrastructure, and it's like, if we build it, they will come. In fact, we've seen this with cloud where we kind of started doing some of that on-prem, right? And we can do this, but then you had Amazon, Azure, and others kind of take it, and just say, look, we can do it better, faster, and cheaper, it's that simple. And so I would say that we are an application, and we reference it as an enterprise automation platform, right? It's more than infrastructure. Now, are we going to, as I mentioned, integrate as an open platform to other capabilities? Absolutely, right? I think as you see with our investments, and as we continue to build this out, starting in core RPA, buying process gold, and getting into our discovery suite of capabilities I covered, getting into what I see next is, as you start launching many bots into your organization, you're touching multiple applications, so you got to test it. Anytime you would launch an application, you're going to test it before you go live, right? We see another convergence with testing, and I know you had Garrett on and Matt earlier, with testing, application testing, which has been a legacy kind of dinosaur market, converging with RPA, where you can deliver automations to do it better, faster, and cheaper. Thank you for that clarification, but now, Mike, is that role, I mean, I know roles are emerging in RPA and automation, but is there, I mean, we're seeing centers of excellence pop up, is there an analogy there, or sort of a similar? Yeah, I think the new role, if you will, it's not super new, but it's really that sense of an automation solution architect. It's a whole different thing. We're talking now more about recombinant innovations than we are about, you know, build it from scratch, right, because of the convergence of these low-code, no-code types of solutions, it's a different skill set. And we see it at PWC. I mean, you have somebody who is potentially a process expert, but then also somebody who understands automations, and it's the convergence of those two as well, that's a different skill set. It really is, and it's actually bringing those together to get the most value, and we see this across multiple organizations. It starts with the COE, we've done great with our community, right, so we have that upswell going, and then people are saying, hang on, I understand process, but I also understand automations. Let me put the two together, and that's where we get our true value, bringing real names. And you have the education and training, and that's a really huge thing. The traditional components of it still need to exist, but I think there are new roles that are emerging, for sure. Well, that's a big cultural shift. Oh, absolutely. How do you guys, how does PWC and UI path, maybe you each can answer this in the last minute or so, how do you help facilitate that cultural shift in a business that's growing at a warp speed in a market that is very tumultuous? How do you do that? Yeah, I'll go first, or I can go. I'll go ahead and go first. It's working with great partners like Mike, because they see it, and they're converging two different practices within their organization to actually bring this value to customers, and also that executive relevance. But even on our side, when we're meeting with customers just in general, we're actually talking about how do we deal with, there's what, 13 and a half million job openings, I guess, right now, and there's 8,500 people that are unemployed is the last number that I heard. We couldn't even fill all those jobs if we wanted to, right, so it's like, okay, what is it that we could potentially automate so maybe we don't need all those jobs, right? And that's not a negative, it's just saying we couldn't fill them anyway, right? So let's focus on where we can, and where we there again can extract the most value in working with our partners, but create this new domain that's not networking or virtualization, but it's actually potentially process and automation, it's testing and automation, it might even be security and automation, which I will tell you is probably coming next, having come out of the security space. You know, I sit there and listen to all these threats, and I see these people chasing really automated threats, and it's like, guys, a threat hunter that's really good goes through the same 15 steps that they would when they're chasing a false positive as if a bot would do that for them. I mean, I've written about the productivity declines over the past several decades in Western countries. It's not universal around the world. And maybe we have a productivity boost because of COVID, but it's like this perpetual workday now, that's not sustainable. So we're not going to be able to solve the world's great problems, whether it's climate change, diversity, massive debts, on and on and on, unless we deal with that labor gap. And the only way to do that is automation. It's so clear to me that that's the answer. Part of the answer. It is part of the answer. And I think to your point, they say it's a cultural shift that's going to happen whether we want it to or not. When you think about people that are coming into the workforce, it's an expectation now. So if you want to retain or, you know, attract and retain the right people, you better be prepared for it as an organization. Yeah, I mean, remember the old, proficient in word and Excel makes it trivial, right? I mean, it's trivial compared to that. And I think if you don't have automation chops going forward, it's going to be an issue. Hey, we have whatever, 5,000 bots running in our company. How could you help? Right, huh? What's a bot? That's right. Yeah, you're right. And we see this too. I'll give you an example with Cisco. You know, one of their financial analysts, Jr., started, he says part of our training program is creating automations. Why? Because it's not just about finance anymore. It's about what can I automate in my role to actually focus on higher level orders? And this for me is just amazing, right? And you know, it's Rajiv Ramaswamy's son who's over there at Cisco. Yeah, right. He's a financial analyst. I was sitting on my couch on a Saturday, no kidding, right, David? I get a text from Rajiv who's now CEO at Nutanix and he says, I can't believe I just created a bot. And I said, I'm at the right place, really. That's cool. I mean, hey, you're right too. I mean, you want to work for Amazon, you got to know how to provision an EC2 instance, or you don't get the job. Yeah, you got to train for that. And these are the types of skills that are expected. That's right. Awesome, guys. I'm glad I'm older. I have no expectations. Are you no longer proficient in word is the question. Guys, thanks for joining us, talking about what you guys are doing together, how you're really facilitating this massive growth trajectory. It's great to be back in person and we look forward to hearing from some of your customers later today. Terrific, great. Thank you for the opportunity. Thank you for having us. Thank you guys. Our pleasure. For Dave Vellante, I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching theCUBE live from the Bellagio in Las Vegas at UI Path Forward 4. Stick around, we'll be back after a short break.

Welcome to the 100% Bikic Shiny Hunting Locations in the Teomast DLC. If you're looking for any Pokemon, make sure to check out the description down below. And if you want to hunt for any other typings, make sure to check out this entire playlist in Kitakami for the Pokemon you want. And don't forget about our Paodea playlist, which has every single typing as well. Okay, so in order to create a psychic sandwich, we're going to be using one onion and two salty herbomistica. Remember, there are also other recipes, so for those who like to comment the alternate recipes, please comment that down below for everyone else to see. But I preferably do like salty herbomistica because I can use them literally everywhere. And there's specific grades that actually give you just salty herbomistica. Also, feel free to use encounter sandwich level 2 to do this task. It's very possible with that as well, since the spawns are pretty much just like it. If you did this right, you should have sparkling power level 3 and encounter power level 3. You're also going to want to be able to do the zoom and technique, which is pressing double home so you can see what is a shiny and what is not a shiny. For this, all you have to do is go to your home menu, go into settings and from system settings, go down to system and then just go ahead and enable yourself the zoom. All right, now that we got that working, let's get hunting. If you head over to the Infernal Pass, we're going to be hunting for a very special Pokemon known as Swank. And I actually got a lot of these Swanks during the base game in Paudea. They always showed up in certain field, but now here we are a shiny hunting spot in the DLC. Now this area is also going to be another dual hunting spot. You're going to have these points everywhere. This is what the shiny looks like. This is what its evolution looks like, Grumpig. And here is where we're going to get Chinglings also spawning. So it is a dual hunting area. Now, something that you may want to do when you're up here is pretty much just pay attention to the spawns. Don't go too fast as they solo spawn in and pay attention to both Pokemon because obviously this is a dual hunt. And the best thing you can do is picnic reset if you see a bunch of them, or you can just go back and forth until you reach the top of the mountain where there will be a different spawn with Chingling up there. So yeah, that's pretty much the thing you're going to be doing on this mountain. Just go back and forth. That's the best strategy and picnic reset. So good luck doing that. I hope you can get yourself a Swank. Obviously it's not that desired of a Pokemon. I never have heard someone say, Swank is my favorite Pokemon yet. But if it is, let me know in the comments down below. A great shiny hunting spot though for this dual hunting location. But before we move on, I want to thank Displate for sponsoring this video.

Click the link in the description below to check out all the Displate collections and get this incredible offer. Now back to our video. Now if you just want to focus on Solo Hunting Spoink, this is going to be the best location to come to. This simply go all the way up towards the Paradise Barrens and this is no longer a dual hunt that you have to deal with Chinglings for, but just solo spoinks everywhere. This whole entire place is full of them. So all you have to do is really just look out for the Shiny. You can picnic reset here or just explore. That's all you have to do. It's literally the only Pokemon that spawns here. So good luck getting a Shiny Spoink here. I hope you all can easily get one in the Paradise Barren. Make sure to hit that subscribe button so you can get Shiny look like this. Now if you head over to the Crystal Pool area in the top of the mountain over here, you're going to find two Pokemon where this is going to be a nice little dual hunt. You're going to find a bunch of Bronzor, as well as finding a very special Pokemon that's actually new to the TMS DLC, which is Chingling. This is what Chingling Shiny looks like and its evolution Shiny. And this is what Bronzor and its evolution looks like as well. So pretty much for this area, you want to try to zoom out as much as you can. For Bronzor, you're going to be looking for a green Shiny. And for Chingling, you're going to be looking for a slightly more yellow Shiny with orange ropes instead of the red ropes. It's evolution though for Chingling. You can look around if you find a Himiko will be a green Shiny. So pretty much the strategy at the Crystal Lake just to go in circles, pretty slow circles until you happen to spot the Shiny. Just don't go too fast because you really don't want to miss out on that. Very important for that because missing Shinies is like the worst feeling in the world. Well, that's the strategy up here and it's pretty much a dual hunt. But if you follow me and cross this bridge over here, we're going to head down to the secret cave, which is pretty much all the way down below. By the way, I actually got a Shiny Bronzor as I was approaching the secret cave by accident. That was a really cool spawn. Anyway, once you head here, head all the way down into the secret location, continue straight down, find the loophole until you head down towards the water. And we're going to drop down to the water below. Now, here's the really cool part about this area. As you can see, we actually have the Evolution Bronzong that spawns down here. Now, check this out. If I make my way all the way to the back and facing the water, look at what spawns right ahead of me. So if you haven't gotten a Bronzor or a Bronzong, this is the spot. And then all you're going to do is set out your Pokemon to Auto Battle and it's just going to go ahead and run into all these Mons up here. So here we go. I'm going to send it out. And it's really cool because you get both the Pre-Evolution and the Evolution and there's nothing else that spawns here. So it's going to be a solo hunting spot for it. I kind of wish it was for Chingling. It would have been so much better since it's new in this DLC. But you know what? For now, we'll take what we can. It's just a very cool hunting spot that you can figure out with different sandwich. So good luck hunting a Bronzor and Bronzong here. I'm really curious to see who's going to get a shiny here. Now, there is a really good dual hunting spot that is going to be in the Woods over here, which is right over here. Timeless Woods or specifically in Dee Dee's, which was available previously in the last DLC. Actually, who am I kidding? All of these psychic Pokemon were available in the last DLC. But this is a great dual hunting spot. If you want to get yourself a Hatterine, which shiny is going to look like that as well as Hatrim, who's shiny is going to look like that. In Dee Dee, like I mentioned is also here. It has the male and the female version. So you want to keep that in mind and these are what the shinies look like. So if you haven't gotten them, this is a great spot just to chill and dual hunt as they spawn everywhere. All these Pokemon spawned throughout. I actually was able to get a Hatterine in this force using a fairy sandwich, but the psychic sandwich is a lot more efficient in order to get one. So I think it's pretty cool to hunt second evolution as well as your indeedies. So just explore the area. There's solo spawns. It doesn't matter if it's day or night. They will spawn during any of those times. So good luck getting your shiny. Just make sure you're paying attention. You're turning your camera around at all times. And if you get a good amount that spawn in a specific area, just go ahead and picnic reset. That's pretty much the strategy when you do get a bunch, but pretty much they're all solo spawns here. So it should be easy just to run around this entire place until you see a shiny. They can stop and catch it. So good luck hunting these. And I hope you grab yourself a shiny. Here's a really fun hunt in the game for Galade. And well, I guess there's a Gardevoir here too. Interesting spawn, but mainly for Galade. So if you come over to the Kitakami wild area, which is going to be pretty much north of the Felhorn Gorge is straight over here right before the time this would take a look at all the spawns that you get. It's literally going to be Galade's everywhere you go in this area. Look at that. They are literally everywhere, which is probably one of the coolest things to see in the game. Like, I remember how hard it was to get a Galade to find the evolution stone and just evolve it. But now look at this. They're everywhere. I haven't seen anything like this in the base game. Unless my memory is completely blanked out. And I also have a mass outbreak. It literally looks like a mass outbreak too, even though there is one on my screen. So let me move away from that just to prove how much there are. And pretty much what you're going to be looking for is a Galade with the color blue. That's it. So there are going to be so many Galade here and it's going to be so obvious because you're just looking at a bunch of green ones when you do happen to get these shiny. So pretty much the strategy is either just walk around this entire area. I noticed they do spawn pretty fast and despawn out pretty quick. You could probably get a whole bunch of different ones in the area. I just circling around this entire path. You got Galade sleeping under the tree. So keep that in mind. Pay attention. Zoom in and make sure it's not blue under the shadows. These are very important things to do when you are shiny hunting because you don't want to make the mistake of walking away from a blue one. Also make sure to push in your right Joycon stick or your pro controller stick because you want to be zoomed out and not zoom in on the way. But just having this amount of Galade is really impressive. So good luck getting yourself a shiny Galade. It should be extremely easy. And also you can trade a bunch of these shiny Galades to other people. All right. Good luck with that hunt. Now if you are looking for Ralts, it's pretty much going to be everywhere in this area around Reveller's Road. Pretty much all over here you can see there are Ralts just running up to me. But a cool spot that is pretty good for using, of course, the psychic sandwich is going to be the town spawn right over here. That's going to go in and out. So it's going to be pretty quick. So you just hit Masui Town on the east side exit. So something like that. And then you're pretty much just going to run right outside over here on Reveller's Road. You're pretty much going to be looking for a blue Ral. That's pretty much the shiny that you can evolve all the way up into Gardevoir or Galade. But we did give you a Galade spot in this video. So you can just focus on that. So you can just go in and out of towns until you get it. It's probably the fastest way with this sandwich. But if you want a really good spot, you should definitely check out the Fairy video because it's a whole location where you get complete families of this Pokemon spawning. So just keep this in mind for this area. Just have to go in and out of Reveller's Road and you should be able to go ahead and grab yourselves an entire family of Ralts using this sandwich. Usually these are great if you just have leftover sandwich after getting the shiny as you want. And you should easily be able to get the shiny you need. Just make sure you're looking all the way to the right. You're looking straight ahead and sometimes looking over here by the tree because you see they spawn all over the place. So just keep that in mind when you're doing your town resets and you should be good. And I found a Ralts just right over here in this area. So that's pretty good. Look at that. Nice, shiny. Now you got your psychic Pokemon, but make sure to check out this video over here.

V6F2_ffs-2Q
This is stock number 10101. We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Your new and used sports car headquarters. Today we are checking out this super clean 2012 Ford Shelby GT 500 Mustang. This vehicle has the 5.4 liter supercharged V8 motor which pumps out 550 horsepower. Black is the color from this HD video which we shoot all of our videos in 1080p. You'll be able to tell that this car is extremely clean all the way around and definitely your best way to Check out the car before you see it in person. You can see any dents or dings down this side. It comes with the SVT performance package which gives you the 19 inch front painted alloy rims. You get the Brembo brakes. It has Goodyear Eagle F1 265 40 ZR19 tires and they have a decent amount of tread left on them. Didn't see any dents or dings on that front fender. It comes with the HID headlamps, the factory fog lamps. I want to get down close here by this front valence. These tend to always be chewed up. This one looks like it's in really nice condition. Headlight lenses are nice and clear. The Cobra emblem is in nice shape. Passengers side fender. No major dents or dings on that. In the passenger side rim, I didn't see any scuffs or scrapes. And as you go down this side of the car you can see just how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror-like that paint is. We take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and just cannot make a trip down. But you're still interested in purchasing the car. You can still see the car, hear the car, and of confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. You'll notice that this one has the sought after glass roof. You don't see too many of those glass roofs. So when we do get one in it's pretty, they go pretty quick. Down that side once again no dents or dings. This back rim is in excellent condition as well. And the back tires have just about as much tread as the front tires. Not a ton of tread on those Goodyear Eagles to begin with. As we come around to the back of the vehicle, the rear splitter is in excellent condition. No dents, dings, scuffs or scrapes on that rear bumper. The deck lid and spoiler are in excellent shape. Very, very clean back here. Has the stock exhaust. We'll go under the car a little bit here so you can see how clean the underbody is and everything. Really nice and clean underneath here. And as you go down this side of the car just as clean as that passenger side, it does have the capitalist fuel fill, which is a really neat feature. It has some nice louvers on it. And for full disclosure, this back rim just as nice as the rest. I do apologize for the wind, a little windy today. And down the rest of this side of the car, no dents or dings. You got the power mirrors with the built-in blind spot mirrors. Inside you get the recaro leather seats. There are no rips. There are no tears on those seats. Excellent condition. You got the recaro stitched into the side, side curtain airbags and the Shelby Cobra emblem stitched into the backrest. Back seats are very clean as well. Probably never sat in. Has a latch child safety system. You can see that it does have the ambient lighting in here as well. And as we hop inside the car, you can see that this one has 14,283 miles. And yes, we will be putting fuel in this vehicle as soon as this video is over. You get the leather wrapped and suede wrapped steering wheel, Bluetooth and audio controls on the right, cruise controls on the left. Has auto headlamps. There's your information center. Has the power mirrors, power locks. This one comes with the electronics package, which gives you the factory navigation system, AM FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities. This one also has a jukebox that you can store up to 20 or 2,472 songs on it. Dual climate control, sync system for your Bluetooth phone, six-speed manual transmission, passenger seat and carpeting are very clean as well. No rips or tears on that seat. This car has never been smoked in. Has the sought after glass roof for good reasons. Has home like buttons for garage door security systems and lighting systems. And then your map lights are up there. Finally, it does have the ambient lighting and the cup holders as well. And we'll take a quick look in the trunk and then we'll check out under the hood. Just a really clean car inside and out. Trunk area is decent space. It does come with the Shelby car cover. And it does have the tire inflator kit back here as well. I'd personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. Hopefully from this HD video you will have been able to tell just how clean this car is all the way around inside and out underneath all the rims. Under the hood we have the 5.4 liter V8 supercharged motor. Engine bay is very clean, runs very smooth. You can see it was hand built. They got the signatures there. Can't read the first one. The second one is Rod Rutter. The Ron Rutter has the cold air intake lip. That looks pretty new as well. And just a really clean car. This car has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop.

DataTrail and its Extensions – How You Can Build a Local Pipeline of Talent for Your Medical Center
Jeff Leek, Chief Data Officer, Vice President, and J Orin Edson, Foundation Chair of Biostatistics, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center There is a shortage of entry-level data science and data manager talent at most major medical institutions. Many of these major medical centers are also located in close proximity to opportunity deserts – neighborhoods with little educational and economic opportunity. In this keynote from R/Med 2023, Jeff discussed the DataTrail https://www.datatrail.org/ program developed at Johns Hopkins and now running at multiple sites around the country. This program combines high-throughput educational technologies and deep low throughput community collaboration to create data science training and placement for young people in jobs at medical centers near where they live. Jeff discussed how the team developed this program, the results of the training program, challenges and opportunities for matching young people to data opportunities, and how you can build a DataTrail at your medical center. The keynote presentation wrapped up with a Q&A session. Main Sections 0:00 Introduction 1:35 DataTrail and background information 8:44 Income Inequality as a public health problem 9:36 What does this have to do with education? 13:27 Low-cost online data science programs are popular 13:57 Can MOOC programs improve student employment prospects? 16:44 Significant barriers to entry 20:56 Why R?

I'm honored to introduce our keynote speaker today, Jeff Leake. Jeff is Chief Data Officer, Vice President, and J. Oren Edson, Foundation Chair of Biostatistics at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. Previously, he was a professor of biostatistics and oncology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and co-director of the Johns Hopkins Data Science Lab. His group develops statistical methods, software, data resources, and data analyses that help people make sense of massive-scale genomic and biomedical data. As the co-director of the Johns Hopkins Data Science Lab, he helped to develop massive online open programs that have enrolled more than 8 million individuals and partnered with community-based nonprofits to use data science education for economic and public health development. He is a fellow of the American Statistical Association and a recipient of the Mortimer's Spiegelman Award and Committee of Presidents of Statistical Society's Presidential Award. I actually remember Jeff fondly from his keynote at our StudioConf 2022, so I'm excited to hear him present to you today, DataTrail and its extensions, how you can build a local pipeline of talent for your medical center. Jeff, it's all you. Great, thank you very much. I really appreciate the intro and really appreciate the invitation to speak here today. I'm going to share a screen and then if somebody can let me know with a thumbs up if it actually appears. Let me see. Okay, great. I'm very excited to talk to you here about DataTrail, which is a project that's been a really personal passion project of mine for more than four or five years now. And it's something that I'm really excited about growing and so really eager to tell you about what we've been up to and really look for opportunities to collaborate and build on what we've already started. And I think I was really inspired by Peter's introduction of showing something that they had just started working on and then it turning into something even better with the use of collaboration from the community and I really hope that we can do the same sort of thing with DataTrail here. We're at the early, what I still call the early phases of building this and and I think it would be an awesome opportunity to collaborate with all of you. So I briefly do my disclosures. I'm a founder and board member on a couple of startups that spun out of my group and I'm a co developer of Coursera and LeanPub courses that produce revenue for the various universities and institutes I'm a part of. So I just mentioned those. I just wanted to say I'm incredibly excited to be here today. Art Medicine is a conference that I've admired from afar for a long time and it's just never worked out for me to be able to be a part of it but I'm excited to be here now and I'm looking forward to actually being a part of the art medicine community for a long time going forward, especially in my new role. Before I get started on telling you about everything that we've been up to I wanted to take a moment to thank all of the people that are part of this project. This is the largest collaboration that I've ever done. It involves university staff nonprofit collaborators students postdocs administrators companies. Collaborators at multiple institutions. And I wanted to particularly shout out Shannon Ellis and I was our Hattivan who are two postdocs that started this project with me. They took a really big gamble to do this as they were postdocs. And it really paid off. And then I wanted to thank some of our core team members Ashley Johnson Simone Sawyer Dave on person and Candace Avanon who've really put in a huge amount of effort to making this possible for the communities that we work with. So anything good you hear is definitely from due to one of the these folks and anything that you hear that's probably a little bit wrong or misguided is definitely my my fault. I wanted to talk a little bit about how I have this new role and you know it's a fancy role with a fancy title but it didn't start that way. This is a picture of me back from when I was a nerdy kid from Idaho and my freshman year at Utah State University. And was just sort of trying to figure things out and didn't really know what I wanted to be when I grew up I think like a lot of kids and didn't really know how to get from one place to the other. And so, how did it happen that I got from from where I was to where I am now and I think it is an instructive exercise that was a thing that Shannon and I was our and I sat down and did right at the beginning when we were thinking about data trail which is, we wanted to sort of understand what are the steps or the or the components of being successful and becoming a data scientist or in your career and she have to know that data science or the area is a real thing. You have to have the income security to be able to get the schooling that you need, you need access to an expensive computer. They say a data scientist is a statistician working on a MacBook Pro and MacBook Pro is pretty expensive so you need access to it. You need access to appropriate educational programs and instructors. The right jobs have to come up at the right times and then really you have to rely on your community and your network to be able to get connections and I think, again, I was really excited to see Peter's description of the job placement and connection services that are sort of being provided by our medicine because I think that's such an important piece of helping young people get careers. Even more importantly than that, I had a number of people that really made the difference for me my undergraduate advisor Jim Powell took a chance on me, my graduate advisor john story works with me even when I didn't know anything about statistics when I got started Giovanni Parmigiani rescued me from a difficult situation and supported me in a job and Rafa really helped me Rafa is already helped me really figure out what it means to be a biostatistician and day to day practice and then Karen banding roasters with a chair that hired me and the list goes really on and on. There are a whole collection of people that made it possible for me to arrive at the place I am now. And I just wanted to give everybody a brief moment I know that there's live chat and you can put it in chat or you can think to yourself. Think about all of the people that helped you get to where you are today which if you kind of landed in a place you're happy with. So what was it who did it take, who are the community that helped lift you up and get you to that place and I think if you're anything like me, you'll realize it's a huge community of people that really help get you get you to the place that you're going. So it's really important to build that community for for other people as you kind of move up in your career. The whole kind of hypothesis around data trail is that talent is equally distributed and this is our second cohort of data trail scholars. They all live really close to Johns Hopkins, where, or did at the time that the program ran near where I went to work every day. And they are all fantastic brilliant young people who are now doing either data science or going off to med school or pursuing other careers and it's really exciting to see what they can accomplish. But an important sort of caveat to the talent being equally distributed is that opportunity isn't always equally distributed. So this is data from the Economic Opportunity Atlas, which was produced by Ray Shetty and folks at Harvard. And they looked at the data from census records and the data from IRS tax records, and they found that for a person that grew up in the neighborhood I'm highlighting the neighborhood right around Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School. The median family income for a family of a person that grew up in this neighborhood is $18,000 in their mid 30s. So that's kind of a stunning lack of opportunity and the red sort of indicates the scale of the lack of opportunity I take into calling these opportunity deserts. And you find them all over the United States. I've moved to a place the Fred Hutch cancer center which is in an incredibly wealthy part of Seattle and in despite that there's still this opportunity desert for people that grew up in the neighborhood right around the Fred Hutch. And if you grew up in this neighborhood you again have a low median income at the age of 35. And it's not just the hutch and it's not just Hopkins, basically every major medical center, you know they're often placed in locations of need. And when they're placed in those locations there's often opportunity deserts directly adjacent to those communities. So, one of the sort of core reasons we actually started this was thinking about, we have this group of talented young people and this opportunity desert and it's right next to a billion dollar medical center with tons of need for data. Every level of data professional. Can we make these two things match up and try to both help create economic opportunity but also solve an area of major need for medical centers. And so this isn't just a problem of economic inequality it's also a public health problem. This is another incredible data set out of raised group and at Harvard and it shows on the x axis income percentile so how much money. Your parents made on a percentile basis so zero is your parents made very little money and 100 means your parents are very wealthy. And life expectancy is shown on the y axis for males and females and you can see that this is real data, but the linear correlation between income percentile life expectancy is incredibly tight correlation doesn't imply causation but this is such an incredibly compelling correlation that we wondered if you kind of moved people from one income quartile to another income quartile. Will that have a substantive impact on their, you know, not just their economic conditions but their life expectancy and their health. So that's what we have to do with education. Education is still the best treatment we have for this sort of economic and opportunity inequality. I'm showing you here a graph of the different colleges around the United States on the x axis is the access rates that's how hard you get it what's the chance that you get into that college, if you're from the first quintile of income to the bottom 20% of income. So, if the colleges over here on the right are very easy to get into and these are very hard if you have low income, and on the y axis is the success rate is the chance you're in the top quintile of income after you leave that university. And so Johns Hopkins where I used to work, but also lots of fancy universities are up in this corner, where it's very hard to get into them, but once you get into them you'll have a very high chance of having a high income at the end. And there's this kind of L shaped pattern, which is, you know, the ones that are harder to get into typically produce higher incomes after going to those universities. The really interesting thing about these data is that it shows that the income mobility is relatively independent of your parents income so on the x axis here I'm showing the parents income quintile. Quintile also goes from very poor to very wealthy. And then on the y axis is the quantile of the fraction of the kids in the very top quantile after they finish a university. And I'm, you know, this comes from the data that they collected they labeled the universities in these various buckets and you can see within a bucket, the curve, it does go up a little bit to the right but it's relatively flat. And so what does that practically mean it means no matter what quintile your parents income came from. If you go to this university you have a very reasonable chance of ending up in a pretty well off situation. So they define something called a mobility rate which is multiplying the fraction of parents with income in the bottom quintile by the fraction of students that end up, given that they get into that university at the top quintile of income by the age of 34. And they sort of use this as a measure of how well does that college or university move people from the lowest quintile to the highest quintiles of income. And if you look at the top colleges, they tend to be large public schools with high access rates. So you can get into them, and they're very large there's a lot of students that go to them. And they tend to have really reasonable success rates. But you when you multiply these two things together you get a mobility rate that's sort of around 10%, which is really good by by national standards but one of the things that's interesting about this is, you know you have this huge collection of people they're studying lots of different things the chance of them all being very high income is very low. But if you pick specific areas where there's high income potential at the end, you could imagine increasing that mobility rate. And so data science is one area that we all know is a high growth and wage job category and data science is actually means a lot of different I think that we're just at the beginning of defining the spectrum of what it means to be a data scientist all the way from entry level data processing and data entry kind of jobs that are require some thinking but are just basic jobs all the way up to very advanced machine learning and complicated modeling and I think we need to fill that entire gap of jobs. And in particular, this is a job growth category within the field of medicine I know here it's true at the Fred Hutch here. It's definitely true at Hopkins where I was before that there is a always a shortage of people who can be sort of clinical data managers for groups manage whether it's managing trials, whether it's managing data from large epidemiological studies. So that's the kind of increasing demand for clinical data managers across the entire biomedical enterprise. I'll come back to this in a minute. We've seen this demand firsthand because we have developed at Johns Hopkins previously and now we're doing it some here at the Fred Hutch as well. Massive online open data science programs that enrolled millions of people all over the country and world. So this is an incredible enrollment in these programs because there's a lot of interest in getting into these high growth job categories. So, this is an incredible opportunity to leverage this education to improve mobility rate around the country. So we wanted to study and this is one of the projects that launched this whole project or one of the papers that launched this whole project I was our one of the study of the MOOC programs that students who took those courses really improved their employment project prospects and improve their income. And it turns out that MOOCs could, you know, with an analysis that he did he did this quite nice propensity weighted analysis I'm not going to go to the details you can read it in the paper, but it essentially showed that you get a pretty significant percentage increase in your income just from taking and completing these online courses which was quite exciting. One of the problems though is that MOOCs benefit the already well educated so these massive online open courses the sort of hope was that if you build it, they will come people will just show up, start taking these courses, and we'll use them to improve their life situation. The reality of not just our MOOCs but every data science MOOC or bootcamp is that the folks that are taking advantage of it are folks that are already well educated already have employment prospects and they're using it to move up in their careers. This is data from our program but it's reflected in the data, there's been a series of papers that have come out that show that it's it's sort of reflected across the enterprise of data science training that it benefits the already well educated. One of the interesting things about our sort of data science courses on course era is that for a long time the modal user was a white middle class male software engineer from Silicon Valley and we definitely want to educate those folks we think it's really important that everybody gets access to data science education but it's definitely not leveling the playing field or distributing opportunity across the entire spectrum of people in the United States. We really want to design data trail to see if we could target folks who have limited educational background limited knowledge of data science and see if we could train them to be very entry level data managers data analysts data entry folks and see if we can get them into those kind of employment prospects and in particular to connect them to Johns Hopkins, where we were working at the time. And so that was the sort of the goal of the project. But the reality is that there's significant barriers to entry just as I described at the beginning, you have to know what data science is you have to have access to an expensive computer and income security and appropriate programs and instruction and the right jobs and connections and you might not have all of those things if you come from an opportunity desert. Even if you don't come from an opportunity desert you just have to be lucky and get help and get support and be able to do these sorts of things and so it's the same set of, you know it's not unique in to those individuals that come from the communities we're trying to support, but it is a challenge for those communities and we wanted to see if we could systematically address those barriers and knock them down for people. So the first thing is knowing about data science. And so we all know about data science and are and the way the ways it can be used and how powerful it is. But when we first started partnering and our first partner was with the Historic East Baltimore Community Action Coalition and Baltimore it was right next to Johns Hopkins. They have a youth opportunity training program where they train folks to get their GEDs, which is a high school diploma in Maryland. And we would go down there and hang out when we were first designing the program and starting to figure it out we would spend a lot of time down there and we would talk to all the young people and none of them had even heard that data was a fit data science is a thing. They got lots of them would get excited about it once we started talking to them about it but it was sort of a new thing and so just communicating and getting the idea out into different communities about what are the opportunities and different fields that they may or haven't talked about previously was a big thing. We're seeing this now as we do a lot of work with community colleges and tribal colleges, also in rural areas as well so it's not just in cities that this kind of opportunity deserts occur near where I grew up in Idaho there's also a similar sort of opportunity desert just nearby and so really getting this idea out there is a critical piece of moving people forward. I think that the computers can be pretty expensive as we all know that that you need to use to do data science and so our entire intention from the beginning was, we're going to design a program that you could do on a public library computer or you could do on a Chromebook. This was an intentional design choice to make it possible to do the entire program through a web browser if you had an internet connection a web browser you can do the program. At the time we first started developing this that was a little bit hard. Since then, you know, especially with the pandemic and everything else, there's been so much development and cloud technologies that it's become increasingly easy to be a person that just operates in the cloud. At the time, it was our studio cloud now it's called posit cloud. This is an old slide but this came from the alpha phase of our studio cloud I reached out to to reef and JJ our studio they were working on this our studio cloud project. And they very early on gave us access and a lot of support Robbie and his team gave us a lot of support there to basically build our entire program on our studio cloud. We built the entire program there before it was even really launched as a beta project, because we knew that we needed a tool that would allow us to let people compute on the cloud and not just on their local laptop. And then we started thinking about how do you do data science on a Chromebook and we wanted to sort of use our, you know, eat our own dog food as they say and so I started doing all of my work on a Chromebook and in fact I had done that until I moved to the hutch I had been on a Chromebook, I had issued a Mac, sort of against my will. I have been on a Chromebook, sort of for the last seven or eight years doing my data science entirely on that. And so it's possible to do it it's sort of like writing a haiku like the first few times you write a haiku poem it's very uncomfortable to get all the syllables right and get the you know the design of the poem right, but then as you go on, you can basically begin to write it and then it's a lot easier to do. So that was the computer and knowing about data science then there was income security and here we really relied on our partners so the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, the able foundation Bloomberg philanthropies and most recently posit have contributed some money to allow us to be able to basically pay people to complete the courses and so they treat it like a part time job. And then absolutely critical piece of the program because a lot of the young people we work with don't have enough income to be able to concentrate on this full time if they can't treat it like a job. And so we've been thinking about ways to basically make it possible for them to focus on this training as a part of their, you know, income stream so that they can focus on their job. And then they need access to instruction and appropriate programs and a lot of programs aren't really designed for folks who are just coming out of their GD, they're they're usually designed for more advanced people, educate people at more people who are advanced in their education. And so we needed to design programs that would work there and so this is where it's really relevant at the our medicine conference we picked our for very you know we had we thought about Python there's some real advantages to Python. And so we needed to think about, you know, other languages to include as well, but are really stuck out and, and the reason why is we wanted to sort of minimize the time to magic. We've been thinking about how do you quickly quickly get people to do things that they'll get excited about. And so the code on the left produces the website on the right, which is absolutely incredible. And I just saw the haiku pop up in the chat which is amazing by the way I'm definitely using that. And so the goal is to minimize time to magic, we want to be able to make it possible for people to write a little bit of code and produce a website or write a tiny bit of code and process a gigantic amount of data. Like you can with the big our query package, or with, you know, flex dashboard or shiny. The code on the left produces a full in hands interactive dashboard on the right. And so again, it's how fast can you get them to happiness, and the faster you can the more engaged and more excited they'll be and are is incredible at that. So we built an originally it was called cloud based data science I'll tell you about the latest iteration in a few minutes. We really covered everything from how to use the basics Google and the cloud, how to organize data science projects version control are the sort of general data tidying and data analysis process and then some some quote unquote soft skills like written and oral communication, and getting a job and data science and so the idea was really, how do you figure out a way to take someone all the way through this life cycle, not just focusing on their technical skills but focusing on the whole person. One last was access to connections we need to be able to get them connections to jobs and I think this is again a place where the R community shines in an incredible way. Whether it's our ladies the bio conductor group our medicine data carpentry open scapes. There's this incredible supportive friendly developer community and I think, you know Hadley and JJ and our studio and now pause it really deserve a lot of credit because they've sort of pioneered and bio conductor is also really big on this. And I mean all these groups really data carpentry is incredible so as our ladies, it supporting people and not making them feel dumb when they ask questions and not making them feel silly for wanting to learn how to do things. I've been a part of a lot of technological communities and most of them aren't like that and I think it's one of if there is a superpower of the R community. It's that it makes new users feel welcome, and it makes them want to contribute and that's like an unbelievable force multiplier across the entire community. So I just really wanted to shout out all of you and everybody else who participates in this, because it's really amazing. So, we actually, I'm going to tell you about the pilot but we've had about an 80% success rate at getting people through the training and the pilot and then I'm going to tell you about some of the challenges we ran into as well because the next step is trying to you know our original intention was to try to connect them to jobs. But there are some real challenges in making that happen. We've been working with Urban Alliance and now we're going to be working with an additional other partners to basically help identify job opportunities and make sure that people can take the training that we give them which is only 14 weeks. It's really introductory they really need a bunch of on the job training to really solidify those skills and start to adapt to the workplace and so we have internships that we place people in immediately upon completing the program. So I'm going to tell you a little bit about our pilot project that we started in Baltimore. This is what it's felt like the entire time that we were doing this project we've always been feeling like we're sort of fixing a bug in production as we're going in the sense that you know there's always something on the train tracks something we're trying to fix and usually our solution is something like this where it's sort of us trying to stop something from going off the rails right before it happens. Most of the time those are self inflicted and most of the time they're my fault and our team has been really good at doing this knocking the barriers down and getting people off the off the rails and so it's been really fantastic. To work with my team again you're going to hear about some mistakes we made. And those are all my fault and then you're going to hear about great things and those are all our teams good doing. So the way this worked was in 2018 Shannon I was our and I started thinking about this and we went down. We started building a little bit of a data science program that might be focused on this sort of community, the community of people who haven't really been implicated or involved in our data science to start. In April we had our first meeting with yo and head cat and we were excited and they were excited and they said, can we start the program immediately like can we start it today and we were like, well we don't really have a program yet. And we managed to convince them to wait until May 21 for the learning to start so that we started in April. So we had conversations and May 21 we had to have a program ready for these young people to take. Mind you, that we were going to build this entire program, and none of it existed yet at the time that we were talking to people and so this was me, immediately after our meeting with head cat stressed trying to figure out how we're going to possibly do this. And again, credit to this incredible team, the content actually got built in time for us to run this program and Shannon Ellis and I was our head of and we're like, by far the leaders on this and deserve huge amounts of credit for the like nights and weekends level effort they put into make that happen. So folks contributed content, and we basically develop these courses on GitHub. We developed them really openly and collaboratively. We had a whole sort of procedure that Shannon developed for moving courses along the sort of production cycle. And we were able to sort of build the courses for the, for the program. Oops. Wait, what happened. I skipped the wrong place. Sorry everybody. We go back. I don't know what button I push this is the problem with the Mac right here everybody. There we go. All right. So, the challenge though is a lot of our courses are built on GitHub and a lot of our courses are built on modern open source technologies. This is both awesome because we can get people to magic very quickly. It's also very scary because things can change really quickly. An example of this is we developed a getting and cleaning data course this is not for the data show program this is for our previous course era courses. This course has over 35,000 repositories that were built on GitHub from this course it's a pretty widely subscribed course. I released this course, more or less the same day that the d plier package was some was released by Hadley. And so, if you look on the x axis these are the number of scripts from our class that use a particular package. And on the y axis is the number of times we a particular library is called, and you can see that like the pliers the tool you would definitely use into getting and cleaning data project. And so our class was immediately obsolete like the minute we released it because Hadley released this d plier package like very stressful and we had to redo the whole thing. And also amazing because what Hadley released made everything that we were teaching people how to do the old hard way so much easier and so much better to do and so it's really been an interesting exercise and trying to figure out ways to automate and speed up the classes. And I'll tell you a little bit more about that work towards the end of the talk here today. So we wanted to build this, this program and we wanted to get it done for people, which we did. And so then our pilot began on May 21. And the first question that they asked us was, Okay, how long is this program going to take for people to complete, which is a totally reasonable question to ask, and to which we had absolutely no answer, because we just built the program last week. And so we have no idea how long it's going to take people to complete the program. We decided it was going to be a part time program, it was going to do 20 hours that we were going to have them do 20 hours a week of work for which we could pay them. And we said, I think it's going to take about three months. That was a number that was totally made up. And we had two pilot folks that did the program with us two young people, they were like astronauts landing on the moon, they had to deal with us updating the projects all the time and updating the courses all the time. They had to deal with us being our very first time teaching it to this kind of cohort of people, they had to deal with, I mean, just a series of nightmare scenarios. And we had projected that they would finish by August 31. Again, totally made up number, but it turned out it took until October 5. A large fraction of that delay was, we would get to the point where they were supposed to work on a course and we would realize that course was totally broken and we would have to like delay them a week while we like fix the course and updated it. It ended up being about 16 weeks for them, since we've settled on about 14 weeks for the program. So it wasn't a totally terrible estimate that we had but it was sort of a testament to the incredible talent of these two first young people who have since gone on to do some pretty incredible things. I'll talk about one of them here in a minute that went through this program to start. One of the problems that we immediately ran into is we try to get them jobs and anybody who's ever written a job at or seen a job ad will see will know this story, which is the real responsibility of a data scientist is often to automate some horrible practice that takes everybody a million years to do by hand currently or and then to write some ad hoc sequel or tidy first code as needed to solve problems for people around the place. So the experience listed will be like 15 years of deep learning experience in Python a PhD thesis on vision modeling and you know 10 years of creating Hadoop clusters from scratch. And I think that's partially because we're still at the early stages of people understanding what data scientists do. And so they don't really know what experience to list but the practical implication of this is that most people, most of the jobs that most people might apply for be interested in that they feel like they don't have the expertise or they don't have the required levels that will get them past the filters to get them into those jobs. Not only that but we have a real legal challenge as well to the data scientists were training so I ended up learning a lot about legal definitions of employment for this project, which is not a thing a bio statistician usually has to learn about. The first thing I learned about was the Fair Labor and Standards Act, which defines exempt and non exempt roles and by exempt I mean exempt from paying people minimum wage. If you're a salaried worker you're probably an exempt worker. And so they can pay you a salary but that means they're exempt from paying you overtime and minimum wage. And there are sort of six categories of people that can be exempt from the law that sets the minimum wage. And there are people that are managers people that have advanced degrees, people that are artists, people that are computer programmers. And it turns out that data scientists doesn't quite meet the definition of any of the exemption categories, unless they have a bachelor's degree that then they qualify for the advanced degree exemption. So the folks that were training have to be hourly employees. So there aren't a ton of data scientists jobs that are hourly employee jobs, including at the time they were like zero jobs that you could apply for at Johns Hopkins that were hourly that were data scientists job, even for entry level data entry data jobs, they were all exempt employees. And so universities couldn't hire them without some changes. So we went and looked into this we talked to many many lawyers to try to figure out how do we actually design the program and it turns out that what we needed to do is really work with employers to figure out a way to not work, not to, you know, bucket hold them into a particular button hold them into a particular exemption but rather to figure out a way to create new kinds of jobs that are available to these people. So we were this close. And again, we're doing this all on the fly and we have two people that are about to finish the program and I don't have a job for them. So I did what any, you know, normal person would do and I started a company. And so what I did was I reached out to my friend, Jamie McGovern, who is the husband of Rebecca Nugent who's a quite a friendly friend of mine and a well known statistician she's the chair of the Carnegie Mellon consultant. They're really close family friends and Jamie is a really well known consultant. And so he founded this data science consulting company with me called problem for data science. And we would take consulting work from a variety of different high profile clients around the country. And we would have most of the work done by consultants who we hired from this data science training program so we can give them their first data opportunity. And they were hourly employees with overtime and so that we could really focus on providing that first foot in the door opportunity for people. While that was going on we started working on the thing that we really wanted to do which is get them jobs at Hopkins because Hopkins is right next door where we're training people and has a lot more opportunity than I can generate in a little startup company. And so we worked for a year and this is really credit to Ashley Johnson, who was our program administrator. She really moved this through the system, working closely with the HR department at Johns Hopkins but they invented a whole new job code, specifically for data scientists programmer and data specialists, who are non exempt employees they're hourly employees and they can work at any of the campuses around Johns Hopkins this was a huge effort and a really important contribution from Ashley because it allowed us to start to hire our data analysts and data scientists at Johns Hopkins and we now have hired several of them at Hopkins which is really exciting. This template also provides a way for if you want to create such a job category at your institution, it's sort of a model and a template and you can point at Hopkins is a place that's already done it. If you want to try to create these kind of opportunities where you're at. So the interesting thing about this is we had to deal with data science problems and community relationship building problems and course development problems and HR problems, all the problems really. And we have this phrase that we like to use all the time Shannon and Abuzar and I, when we were working on this project we said hard things are hard to do. You really want to do something important and you really want to make a big change, it's often going to be hard and is going to be a hard thing to do. And so, again, I'd like to just give you a little brief moment whether you wanted to drop it in chat, or think about it. You know, quietly to yourself. Think about something that was hard that you accomplished. I wanted to take a minute to reflect on the really hard things that you've done that have made a difference for people in the world in particular and helping other people. And so I just wanted to give everybody an opportunity to think about that and to reflect on how much you're capable of if you really put your mind to it I think one of the things this project has illustrated for me is how much if we really put our mind to it, we can do incredible things for the community and for the world and so I'm sure you're all doing the same, and I want you to take a chance to sort of pat yourself on the back and think about something hard you accomplished. Great. I'm going to tell you a little bit about the impact that this program has had. Next. And so the program has had a pretty significant impact on the young people that we worked with and I think that that has been the most rewarding part of this I mean there's been all parts of it. But the first is that we hired so using that job code that Ashley created, we were able to hire one of our, I think it was cohort three graduates Dave on person to be the curriculum lead for data trail so he's currently working at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. He mentors students through our training program, and he helps design and build our curriculum with Candace seven. And it's been really amazing to see the development of day on. We knew that he wanted that he wanted him to be the curriculum lead when we would have these parties at our house in Baltimore for all of the scholars and all the staff and we would have kind of a And Dave on would come and he would spend the whole time hanging out with my son teaching him how to play chess, and my son would like eat this up, and they want was an incredible teacher, and we just realized he's the kind of person that could really help our program and to really develop the, the young people who were part of our ecosystem and so we really have appreciated him and he was the first pilot candidate that got hired under our new data science hiring program at Johns Hopkins, since there have been others. And then another incredible outcome of this is one of the young people who was part of our very first cohort of data trail scholars was working at that company problem forward that we founded and one of the contracts that that company had was was to analyze data for HBO. And when we were analyzing data for this HBO special. They analyze data about economic opportunity and particular the redlining that has happened historically in Baltimore, and how the historic redlining of communities in Baltimore has carried through through 60 plus years and has set the geographic stage for housing prices and housing quality and housing support in the in the area. And basically what our young person from our program was actually credited in the, the sort of manager, Jamie McGovern who was the sort of co mentor, and then our, one of our first two data trail scholars actually appeared in the credits of the of the HBO documentary, it's really cool and you should definitely check it out if you have something to do this evening. The other thing that was really great and we're working on a paper that we're going to publish about this but by Simone Sawyer who was our community scholar advocate is really talking to our young people and asking them about what the program meant to them and what it, what it did and didn't do for them. And what was really interesting is it said, this is a quote from one of our scholars it gave me a new direction and taught me that you can be different. Go a different route than your parents not always hanging on to what society tells you, you can follow your own protocol so it just gave me a sense of like a new world or a new field and new life that I got to see. It's incredibly exciting to see our young people thrive that have come out of the program. Not all of them actually go on to be data scientists some of them go on to different jobs. They go on to different careers there you know when you were 18 you probably didn't know exactly what you wanted to do I know I didn't. So sometimes they stay in the field and sometimes they don't but I, regardless it's been so fun to see how this program has helped be a stepping stone for them to whatever it is that they want to take on post program. It's just been a really fantastic powerful component of the program to have this community of scholars that's been developing. We've learned some pretty important lessons as we were doing this. It was definitely exercise and running through walls and learning how to do things you know I'm a bio statistician by training. This was my first community based project so I had a lot to learn and the good news is I had really great mentors and teachers in our nonprofit partners who helped us learn how to do things well but but there were still a lot of things we had to learn. One of the things that was an immediately apparent from the first cohort and has been true throughout the entire sort of experience of working on data trail has been the data science training is actually the easiest part. So, you know, the young people they were working with their young people they're like good with computers they know how to pick they pick this stuff up fast they're like, often they end up teaching us about park packages we've never heard about and all that sort of thing. But we really need to be able to support the whole person for them to be able to go through the program, especially when you're working with communities where there isn't a lot of economic opportunity and there's a lot of economic stressors and financial stressors and so forth. We need ways to support the whole person and so whether that's providing laptops whether it's creating connections to the community for mentors, whether it's paying them to complete courses so they can focus on it as a full time job, whether it's providing online support and job search assistance. We've also had to realize that we needed to hire a community scholar advocate within our organization and their whole job is just making sure the young people have what they need that their house that they have access to food that they have access to income that they need to pass when they need to get somewhere. And we've been able to keep people in the program, I think, largely by virtue of not just thinking of it as a data science training program, but as a whole person support infrastructure to try to help them get through this training and building trust takes a lot of time. So, when we first started going down to meet with folks at the yo center. In fact, we actually approached 20 other nonprofits about whether we would. Whether they would work with us, whether they would do this training program with us, and we were frequently turned away because we weren't. We hadn't built up any trust. We didn't have any credibility. It really took the head cat folks taking a flyer on us for us to be able to work on this program. And the thing that we learned right from the start is that you know being there is the most important thing. We started to spend a lot of time down at the historic East Baltimore Community Action Coalition, and starting just being present being there, all of our training didn't happen at Hopkins we would like go to the head cat to be able to train people so that we were like present there. And despite all of that, I think we built some trust over time but I think the thing that is maximize the trust building has been Dave on. And really, it's about it, you know, this is a person that came from their community that they trust and know that they've he's been a member of their community. And he can talk about his experience of going through the program, getting a job, being a leader now for us. And I think that's produced a lot of value for our, or our relationship with not just the nonprofits but also with the young people that we work with. And really thinking about how do you develop those connections and how do you develop that relationship, which has been so incredibly meaningful and important for this project. And then we need advocates so one of the things that's really interesting about this project is thinking about, okay you're going to take a young person you're going to put them through a 14 week data science training program, as you all probably can believe in the shortness of that program and how little background they had in data science before we started. They're just at the very beginning of their data science career they know a few things they know a few packages they can do a little bit of work, but they're not fully formed yet, you know they're still learning on the job and so what does that mean it means we need to identify supportive employment opportunities with the mentors at those employment opportunities understand what kind of community we're working with and understand that this is the beginning of a journey. Think of it as a long term investment in that employee instead of a short term return. And that's taken a lot of work and also a lot of work to work with organizations to help them understand what it is that you need to do when you're trying to hire people from these diverse communities from these economic opportunity deserts. And so we've kind of had to do both we work with the sort of official bureaucratic processes HR and finance and all that. We work very closely with the mentors and the employers to try to help them figure out how do they work with this and I think we're doing an okay job at this but we have way more work to do on this side I think we've devoted a lot of attention to how do we build up the young people to do the data science training, and we're really at the beginning of our journey of how do we actually create a program for people who might hire people from our data trail program and how do we get them to understand how it is to interact with these young people as well. So then. Oh, and there's a good question about evaluation and in the text here which is how do we have a structured way to assess barriers and what metrics to assess future program outcomes yes. So we have a data collection and capture strategy. And we have a lot of educational data about them because all of the methods we use to do the training our high throughput educational methods. We also have access to the API is to all the questions they asked and all of that. And then we can collect standard, you know, financial demographic background data as well as outcome economic outcome data. What's interesting about defining success here is. What does it mean to be successful out of a program like this, and we don't want it to be that you have to be a working data scientist six months out a year out two years out. If a young person, one of the young people in our program is going to college simultaneously he has an intention of getting a degree and then going to medical school. If it becomes a doctor that's a totally successful outcome you won't be a data scientist but we want that to be considered a success so I think defining success has been a real challenge for us actually and for people who know more about this again not my area main area of expertise would love to talk to people who have ideas about that. And again we need mutually intensive learning so you know we provided social support financial support data science training to the data science learners. But now to the experts we need to provide you know and anti racism training mentorship training around what it is that we expect from them submit support for HR best practices and so forth so we have that sort of the right hand side of this is not really built up yet but definitely needs to be built up for us to be able to be more successful one of our big learnings is you have to sort of train both sides and both sides have to learn together for this to be a really successful relationship and successful mentorship opportunity. The future of data trail told you a little bit about the past. The data show model really is a college or university or medical center providing tutors and educational support nonprofit communities providing social and emotional support and financial support, and then hiring opportunities and opportunities. So for example in the case of the Baltimore data show program. We have the Johns Hopkins data science lab producing the sort of providing the tutors and the educational support. We have have tack and more recently hard smiles being our nonprofit community partners helping to identify and support young people, and then I'm putting positive here because they've been an incredibly supportive partner in and supporting some of these young people. And there are a number of other companies and organizations that also taken on young people and scholars out of the data trail program. So, you could also get involved in data trail and this is the part of the talk I'm most excited about is just as built, just as we talked about at the beginning of the sort of presentation. This is a project that's evolving and ongoing and we would love contributions from anybody and there's various levels at which you might participate if you're excited about this at all. So other people about data trail we like want to we want to get the word out we want people to know that this is a program that exists and that they can use and they can leverage at their institution. You can basically find all of the details about our program at data trail.org. So if you go and check that out it has information about our curriculum and the program and the design philosophy and all that. We also encourage more inclusive hiring practices at your organization. So we have a job description which we share with anybody that wants to have it that they can use to try to design similar job descriptions for non exempt employees at their organizations. This takes a lot of advocacy work but is a really rewarding way to create diversity within your organization. One thing that you could help out is recommend data sets for learning examples I think the our medicine community could be a really incredible resource for this is one that we're constantly working on. Our examples are starting to get a little stale from our original program and so we really would love to have some modern exciting new medical examples. The data examples are project templates. There are markdown based whenever possible they either shouldn't require too much background knowledge or you should be able to describe the background knowledge within the context of that are marked down. And the data needs to be publicly available or okay to be made so so that we can share with people and then we create data projects on positive cloud which we then share with people so that they can actually work on them and practice their skills. This is such an important part of becoming a data scientist is having those skills to be able to practice on projects so would love to work with any of you if you have any ideas on projects. You can find all of our code on github. So this is the code for the courses. So if you go to github.com slash data trails issue with data trail itself was taken so we took data trail that's ghu slash data trail you will find our entire curriculum. You can also add an issue there or send a pull request if you notice a thing that you want that you want to fix. So it'd be really helpful. And then hosting a data trail graduate as an intern. You can either do this with your own funding or with funding that we provide. We've already placed interns at a few different places. These are a couple of examples of the places that we placed interns out of the program. And what is required we have funding available to pay for some of these interns. If you don't have the funding to pay for one. We have an entry level data science project that you have in mind. We can help you determine if it's a good fit but it needs to be pretty basic and pretty introductory, and then some time to mentor the intern, you can meet once or twice a week. You can have the post a postdoc or senior grad student could be the direct mentor as long as they have some experience mentoring, and preferably eight weeks or more in duration so they can really get some experience, ideally with some culminating publication and that could just be a get help project that's put up. If you have any interest in this at all you can email me JT leak at Fred hutch.org, or Candice Savinen at her emails see Savinen at Fred hutch.org. She's sort of leading a lot of the data science data show program at this point with me from the Fred hutch side and could connect you to potential projects that you might do if you were hosting an intern. And then you could create an extension course and so this is where I'm really excited about our medicine and the potentials here I've talked to several different groups about this, and so far the project hasn't really got off the ground. So this is me doing a, you know, throwing this out into the world and hoping the universe will respond. We would really love to tailor add on course or an elective course that's focused on clinical data management. So all of our content online of what's on our original program here at this URL. And I can also paste it. Somebody can paste in the trap chat maybe for me if that if they get a chance. And so you can go read what they actually learned previously, and what they would have already had experience in. But we don't really focus on clinical data we don't focus on red cap we don't focus on any of the things that a clinical data manager might be interested in. But we would really love to add an add on course so we can focus on that sort of area of data science. And if anybody's even remotely interested in collaborating I hope they will reach out to me about that. You can see the self top version of our courses on lean pub, we put them up there so that they can be available for free you can pay a suggested price but it's more like a donation and a payment, because you can tune the slider down to zero so you can take the course and get a credential a data trail credential from taking the course. And then we have a whole infrastructure for designing these courses and releasing them on lean pub and Coursera and on the public web. It's called order project you go to order project org. So if you decide that you have any interest in working with us on a clinical data management course, we can collaborate via this order project which is basically a GitHub based course development framework that's really useful for multiple publications simultaneously. And so, finally, the sort of heaviest lift that you could potentially get involved with is starting your own franchise. So, we have decided that the model for scaling data trail beyond Baltimore is what we're calling a franchise model. And by franchise model we mean, we give you everything that we have for free, and then you run your own program if you're interested in running your own program. So, this has already been done a couple of times. The longest running one is at Mount Sinai health system is running a data trail program. But we would be very interested in supporting you if you decide that you'd want to run such a program yourself at your institution. If you're going to do that you need a nonprofit training partner for helping you to identify students from the community and providing that wraparound support, you need funding for some kind of Chromebooks and a stipend. So, typically on the order of this is now more like four or five K per student. It was three K when we started, and then a team to support the students through the program that's a program leader is typically somebody who's sort of supervising and managing typically 10 to 20% effort from two to three tutors to sort of help people do the program, and then you run the cohorts and sort of 14 week cohorts. So, the initial hiring partners, again, ideally eight weeks with significant mentorship this could be your institution it could be corporate partners. We've developed a whole collection of materials, course materials instructor guides, you know templates for hiring advice around fundraising, etc, that we can provide to anybody that's interested if you have any interest in sort of setting up your own data trail franchise. If you have any questions about this. You can email Candace here at C seven and Fred hutch.org or me at GT league at Fred hutch.org or go check out our website at data trail. So the last thing I'll sort of leave you with is thinking about paying it forward and I think this is a really useful feeling that I've had and I hope you'll feel the same way about how exciting it can be to pay it forward. I think that we can help each other and data trails just one way we can help each other, I just feel like the our community and I know they are medicine community. I just so happy to be a part of these communities because they always help each other out. And sometimes it's helping each other out on something like data trail which is a big ongoing project. Sometimes it's just helping each other with a little bit of code. I think we're mentoring or bring over helping pull up somebody that's behind them on the ladder. And I think I hope that you will continue to do that because I love being a part of this community that you're all creating and I want to continue to be a member of this community. I just wanted to highlight a quote from my advisor Jim Powell I use my undergrad advisor, and I was a goofy kid from Idaho is we had no idea what he wanted to do and Jim took me on and helped me get involved in a couple of research projects and honestly, I really probably wouldn't have had a career that I've had without Jim's advice. And I emailed him after I finished. Actually it was like right after I won this big stats award. I sent an email to Jim and I was like, just kind of explain how grateful I was for everything that he gave me and and every all the support he gave me and like how he had no reason to do it other than just just being a person that likes to help other people. And he wrote back mentorship is a debt, you don't pay off, you pay it forward and then he said thanks for helping me pay off my karmic debt. And so I feel like I'm paying off karmic debt to all the people that helped me along the way. And I know we thought about those people that helped you along the way earlier today and think about that karmic debt and I hope that you will continue to be the amazing supportive community of people that helps others that you have been this whole time. And there's almost nothing more rewarding than paying it forward and helping other people to be successful, especially exciting young people who know a lot more than you do and we'll figure things out you won't be able to figure out. With that I'll just thank you very much for your attention and happy to take any questions that you might have. Thanks very much. Thank you so much, Jeff. We have some questions that came in through the chat, and we'll start with Jeff Curtis saying this is a tremendous effort. How do you screen people for the program who are serious and will be committed, some of the typical achievement metrics used for employment evaluation and an education may not apply. That's an absolutely fantastic question so the way we've done it is so we're doing scalable education and really non scalable community effort work. And so, on the education side we put everything online we put, you know we run thousands of people through these courses but for this program. We work closely with nonprofit partners who have been part of the young people's training throughout the entire process and they actually recommend people so rather than having one metric or one screening criteria which we have found excludes people like maybe they're bad at testing or maybe they, you know, get anxiety and so we have found that the best way to identify young people who are committed and will show up is to work with the nonprofit partners who've worked with them for years and can easily identify who's going to show up and who's not going to show up who's going to work hard and who's not going to work hard so it's. I wish I could say it was real quantitative but it's more, you know, deep partnership with the nonprofit partners relying on their expertise really. Excellent thank you. A question from Hannah Hill, do graduates of the data trail course receive a certification. They do they receive a certification on lean pub which is a massive online open course provider. The original CVS program has a Johns Hopkins logo on it we're working on getting data trail so it has a little Johns Hopkins logo on it it's not an official Johns Hopkins credential. Johns Hopkins massive online open course credential which is a different thing, but they do get a credential that's like a diploma that comes out of that and it's the same one that anybody would get if they took the program for free online by themselves. So that's one interesting design choice that we made is we didn't design a program that only these young people take literally thousands of people have taken these down these training programs and gotten these same credentials and it would be indistinguishable whether they went through our training program or whether they did it themselves online. And so we think that improves the value of the credential because it means there are lots of other people, software developers who taken the training program and have that credential. And then also our young people and it sort of elevates the value of it of the credential so yeah they get a credential. It's not a full like university degree. So one of the things we're working on with another project we work on something called the genomic data science community network and I'll drop that in the chat here the URL for that. This is a group of community colleges HBC use tribal colleges who are folk and their faculty all those places that are focused on data science education. And we've been talking a lot especially to the community community college groups about creating stackable credentials so where you could get some community college credit for having completed the data trail program, which would allow them to shorten their time to the community and and we do really think that more education is necessary for a lot of our young people and so how do we shorten that and reduce costs for them by having them get the data trail program so that's future work to lots of future work. Another question from Peter have you started to try to clone this in Seattle how hard is it to find the community partners and build trust. Great question yes we have started to build it in Seattle, we have a couple of philanthropic donors who are interested in supporting it which is our first step. Then we're working with finding community partners right now. I'll tell you it's going to be exactly what it was at Hopkins which is they won't trust me until I've been there for like multiple years and I've shown them that it will work it's a very. You know it's like it's like anything right you're building a relationship with a group and we're at the very early stages of trying to build those relationships here and it's going to take some time but yes we're building it here I'm excited to run it here it's going to be great but it's going to take a couple of years like it did at Hopkins before I feel like we have a really strong relationships with those groups because I mean in their defense right like I'm just showing up out of nowhere to try to do this you know who knows if I'm trustworthy or not they'll have to verify that I'm trustworthy before we really can get get going with them. And then a related question. Do you have some specific examples of that trust building process. Yeah I mean there's a variety of them one is when when you actually place young people in jobs that's a pretty important that's a long term trust building thing but when they see a member of their community like Dave on goes back now all the time. And he's got a job at Hopkins and it's a really well paying job and he's doing really well and he gets to go back and tell them that this is a real thing that he did go through our program he did work with us and he did get a job. I think the long term one, the shorter term one for me was actually just spending time I would like sit down at HebCAC and just do my work and just kind of hang out and like talk to young people I was, you know, I looked very different than a lot of the people that were hanging out at HebCAC so like I was a curiosity and people would come and talk to me and. I was probably distrusted quite a bit and then I kind of became part of the backgrounds, you know I was down there enough that they saw me and I think that just took a while just showing up being there. And so it is it's a lot of work I guess I don't want to make it seem like this is a thing you can do really easily. It is a lot of work and you have to care about it a lot if you want to do this kind of program. But it's for me at least it's been one of the most positively impactful things I've done in my career. And a question about being a freelancer, would it be possible to start a franchise coming from that perspective. I think so I mean we were happy to provide the materials to anybody that wants it. It helps a little bit to have some infrastructure and support because you're going to need to make partnerships with community based nonprofits and partnerships with employers and things like that. And we can help provide a ton of advice. You might be might be easier if you at least have some friends if you're a freelancer is this would be a very hard thing to do by yourself. I would not recommend it by yourself. But if you had like a little cohort of people that wanted to do something like this then then yeah I could probably work. And another question how hard was it to convince HR to let people hire folks without a college degree, we have trouble doing this for study coordinators is from Peter. A huge amount of work. That was probably one of the hardest things in this whole project I said that is kind of a one slide and many but that was a Ashley spent a year talking to doing meetings after meetings after meetings and like showing evidence and you know building the job code for them and all this kind of stuff so it was a non trivial operation. I ultimately ended up pulling rank a little bit and getting some senior leadership involved, and that helps. But the HR department actually ended up being quite supportive in the end so it was it was first it was a little frustrating but once we got over that hop hump it was actually they ended up being a real collaborator with us. So if you can find your people and HR they can help you out and we have a, the one thing that's an advantage is now we have a job code that's officially listed as a Johns Hopkins job code that has a no degree requirement. And it might be useful. We had to point to other institutions where things like this existed and so it might be useful for you to point to Hopkins and say this exists there as a way of making inroads with your HR department but yeah that's another it just takes work to make it happen. Good question on Peter. And we'll float this one last question in the interest of time from Robbie Niroko in the Q&A. Thank you so much for the talk. My name is Robbie from Ghana, I want to find out is the program open for someone like me to join. Also I had my undergraduate studies in nutrition biochem and I've been looking for graduate studies opportunities. I'm an intern as a data analyst currently one barrier I face in my applications is that I have to have a statistics or mathematics background to pursue bio data science related course. How can I get around this. Yeah, so I mean, this is a fantastic question and I really appreciate it and so our program, the full wrap around program that we run currently only runs in cities in the US that we are talking to a group in Nigeria about running it and a group in Ghana about running it. That hasn't actually gotten off the ground yet. And then. So, so it doesn't exist I don't think it's the full wrap around program that being said, all of the courses that we offer are 100% free and online and so you can go start doing them today there's no prerequisites no background required if you just go start the courses you can start them right now. But we don't have the sort of wraparound services for you yet but I think that's something for us to think about is how do we make it more global as we go so. So the good news is there's no barriers to entry the bad news is you're kind of, it's not like you're on your own but it's a little bit less wraparound support services to take these courses at this time. And then you can do with your background, because you'll at least have some our programming background there's a little bit of statistics in the in the program as well like some linear modeling and things. So you would, you would get some of that background from taking the course and there's no mathematical prerequisites other than, you know, basic math algebra and things like that. Thank you so much again. Fantastic talk. If there are additional questions please feel free to continue the discussion the chat, but we'll go ahead and move on to our next speaker. Thank you.

Introduction to Football: The Play Clock (Old version)
There is an updated version of this video here: https://youtu.be/6_i7Fhv_I50 The first part about timing and the clock in general are in this video: http://youtu.be/E3sXGzBowJg
[ "American Football (Sport)" ]

So now that we understand the general ways that the clock works and how the timing of the game is run, let's take a look at another important aspect of timing of the game and this aspect is called the play clock. So the play clock is much like a shot clock is in basketball, which is to say it forces the team on offense to continue playing, or maybe a better way to say it is that it prevents the team on offense from getting a lead and then simply standing there with the ball to run out the clock for the rest of the game. What fun would that be, right? So the play clock kind of forces both teams to move forward to continue to play. So typically the play clock will be 40 seconds long, which means that from the time that play ends from the time a player is tackled or the ball carrier is pushed out of bounds, that team then has 40 seconds to snap the ball to begin the next play. So as I said, that prevents a team from just wasting unnecessary time, but it will give them adequate time to regroup to call the next play and then begin that next play. If the team does fail to snap the ball after that the play clock has expired, they will be called for a delay of game penalty. They will result in a five yard penalty and so the ball will be moved back for the next play. So we'll look at penalties and have all those work in the next few upcoming videos. So typically 40 seconds is the play clock for each play. There are a few exceptions on that for things like a penalty, should be a foul, or if generally if the game, if you're watching it on TV, oftentimes the game will go to a commercial for certain things. And then whenever the game comes back, things like turnovers, so maybe an exchange has taken place. So let's say that the defensive team has intercepted the ball, so then that would then mean that the team that was on defense would become the offensive team. So they would take a break, they would allow the offensive players to come onto the field and then for the other team the defensive players, and so typically if that game is on TV then there would be a commercial while all that is happening. When they come back from the commercial, it's not necessary to give that offensive team 40 seconds to start their first play because we kind of assume that they've had that time out, the time when the commercial was taking place to regroup to kind of know what they're going to do and to get onto the field. So in that case, the play clock would be shortened to 25 seconds, but really it's kind of all the same things apply, you still need to snap the ball before that time has expired to start that next play, and then of course on the next play you would just go back to 40 seconds for the play clock, but that's basically how the play clock works.

How's it going traders? Welcome back to yet another amazing video from yours truly. My name is Dapo Willis and I'm back with a bang. Now guys, I've been away for a bit. I've been on holiday. I mean, it's been amazing for me because most of, I mean, the last part of last year from like August till November, I made so much money from the Forex market and I said to myself like, yo, listen, I'm gonna redraw a significant amount of my profits and I'm gonna go spend time with my family. So what I did was I took out a lot of money from my trading account and I got on the plane, first class of course, and I flew to go spend time with my family and have a fantastic time. For those of you guys who came out to the Forex expo event and you saw me, I love you guys very much. Thank you for coming out. But I've actually been on holiday because why do we do what we do? The essence of why we trade is so that we can actually take money out and go relax, okay? Most of us see the fancy stuff on YouTube and all that. And at the end of the day, Forex trading is supposed to signify freedom, right? So I actually like to practicalize what Forex is about. Now, enough about my fantastic holiday which I went to spend a lot of money from Forex. Enough about that. Today, I wanna kick it off with, this is I think my second video of the year. I wanna kick today off with a video called Trader Talk Now. Trader Talk is basically a segment of my YouTube channel whereby I come to practicalize what I preach. A lot of traders don't do this, you just talk to them. I like this is exactly where everything you've learned about Forex from candlesticks to trend lines, to higher highs, higher lows, Fibonacci, all that good stuff. Everything you've ever learned about Forex, I bring everything together to make it make sense. Okay, so the essence of this channel is so that you guys can take what I'm teaching you guys in real time, real life, real price action, real analysis and ultimately use it to make money for yourself. So I'm the guy who helps you make money without you even having to do much, right? So that's absolutely amazing. Now, before I jump into the charts and check guys, I have some really nice setups that you guys are gonna love like we're here to make money, right? But before I jump into the charts, I noticed that whilst I was on holiday, I think I find the best time to go on holidays because whilst I was on holidays, I noticed that the market was actually very quiet and most traders struggle when the market is quiet. This is where a lot of people get stopped out. This is where a lot of people go to lose their money. Most people who made a lot of money last year just because they couldn't understand why the market was quiet, they pretty much gave away all their gains. So let me quickly explain to you what's been happening in the Forex market and why exactly the market has been so quiet. Now, you have to understand that I studied in the UK I studied in Coventry Business School, studied business and finance and from a finance standpoint, this is exactly why the Forex market has been quiet. Now, if you look back, okay? If you go back and don't worry guys, I'm gonna be teaching you guys a strategy as to how to go about mitigating against when the market is quiet, how to still make money when the market is quiet. I'll teach you guys that in this video, just relax. Now, what really happens is anytime, so you have to understand that towards the end of last year, the US dollar was trending seriously. Like the euro was collapsing, the pound was collapsing, gold was falling. It was beautiful. I made so much money off that period. But what a lot of traders don't understand is for every major move in the market, there must always be a resultant period of consolidation. So what that simply means is if the US dollar moves like 4,000 pips over a period of what, five months, best believe there's gonna be a six week, six to eight week period of consolidation. Now, a lot of traders don't know this. So they believe that if they've been able to make money over the last five months and the market has moved 5,000 pips, they feel like the market is gonna keep doing that. So what now happens is they keep trading, maybe for example, the US dollar was trending upwards. It was a bullish trend. DXY was going upwards. Once you came on the market and click sell, once you came on the market and click sell, boom, you were good, right? You make a lot of money. But obviously the market went into a range and everybody started to lose their money. Now, what actually happens during this period when there's low levels of liquidity is liquidity actually moves from market to market. So if you see a low period of liquidity in the forex market, the chances are that the liquidity has actually moved from the forex market to the stock market. And then it moves from the stock market. At the moment the crypto market is starting to pick up. So that's where most people, the big banks are the guys who move the market. They've made money from the forex market and now they moved it to the crypto market. Now, like I said to you guys, what's the best way to go about being able to make money while even the forex market is quiet? There's an approach called the top down analysis which I teach on the forex market program. That allows you to trade any market regardless. The good thing about the top down analysis is you can trade forex, you can trade crypto, you can trade S&P 500, you can trade gold. So there's never really a dull moment for you in the market once you understand how to do the top down analysis. And another good thing about the top down analysis is and the forex mastery program is it actually shows you, rather you get to get a sense of when the market is about to go quiet because the higher timeframe will always paint the picture. And a lot of people keep running away from the higher time. They're like, oh, I don't want you to, no, no, no, no, no. The higher timeframe will always paint the picture for what the lower timeframe is about to do. Now, for those of you guys who haven't grabbed the forex mastery program, the link is gonna be around here somewhere. Get it and save yourself from periods like this so that regardless of whatever happens, you're making money all year round and get to be like, who gets to go on holiday whenever he likes. So enough about that. I'm gonna jump into the chat shortly about now. Once again, if you haven't grabbed the program, the link is gonna be around here somewhere. And sure to grab it. And if you haven't subscribed to the YouTube channel, smash the subscribe button right there. Once again, guys, my name is Dapo Willis. Let's jump into the video. Let's go. Hey, guys, and welcome inside of my screen. As always, it's a pleasure to have you guys back on and through the talk. I feel like this is the most anticipated aspect of my YouTube channel because on here I get to be real, right? I get to break down the chat and explain to you guys what exactly has been happening. Like you guys know, the better part of towards the end of last year. So from about, as you can see, September was right. All the way down to October, it was a fantastic downward movement. Actually it started, the move started all the way in August. So we made a lot of money from the forex market. Actually before I start anything in this video, if you haven't subscribed, go ahead and subscribe. And I remember I said to you guys that if indeed you want to stand any chance at mitigating against losses, especially when the forex market is in a period of consolidation and you want to be able to trade other markets, I kindly and humbly suggest you get the forex mastery program. Don't worry, the subscription thing has been taken off because I feel like my team is, some people are being charged a subscription fee. Some people are unable to be charged a subscription fee. So until they fix that, which will probably take another month. So you have literally another month to get the forex mastery program. So get it so that everything I'm saying here, you would understand. The link is always in the description as always or somewhere around here. Get it so that you can meet to get, so that you can trade any single markets. You're gonna watch me. I'm gonna break down everything that comes my way, I can chew. This way you're not limited to just one market. Euro, you're a GP or SD or the forex market. You can trade anything you so desire. So once again, get it. And once you get it, always ensure that you have subscribed to my YouTube channel so that you can use both of them. If you can get the forex mastery program and you're a subscriber of my YouTube channel, if you combine these two very key elements, you will be so successful in the forex market, you will know what to do with all that money, right? So just wanted to quickly state that. Now, let's quickly jump into the charts. Now, as we all know, the market has been, as we all know, the market has been, sorry guys, my phone is about to ring. As we all know, the market has been pretty quiet. How do I know the market has been pretty quiet if you come to our timeframe? You would see that the market has just from the times of January, right? So the market has been consolidating all the way to the upside, we come up, blah, blah, blah. It's been really boring. There's no clear direction as you can see. Now, the reason why this is happening is, like I keep telling you guys, for every major move, there must be a period of consolidation, right? So if we quickly come to the monthly timeframe, right? Don't forget, forex mastery students, you already know this. For those of you who are in the forex mastery program, you know the very first thing you always have to do when you open up a chart is you must come, you must come on your monthly timeframe to see what exactly is happening. And on the monthly timeframe, as you can see, very easy, very clear, not too much, not too many lines, very straightforward, right? So on the monthly timeframe, and this pair is called AUD-USD by the way. So on the monthly timeframe, what has actually happened is you can see there's been a massive move to the downside. This was the game changer actually sometime in, although we still spiked all the way down in October, but already done making money all the way here. And then we're still trying to push it a bit lower. And because of this, you have to understand that this move actually started all the way from here, right? It's been a minute. This move has actually been coming since April, right? So due to the fact that we've had this massive push to the downside, this is exactly why this consolidation is happening at the moment. And this is not just happening on AUD-USD, it's happening on Euro dollars as well. I think Euro dollars is a better example for us to understand what I mean by impulse legs and consolidation, right? So you can see this massive collapse to the downside, right? It's crazy. The Euro has been collapsing since, what, February of last year? It's been making lower lows and lower highs. If you come on the weekly timeframe, you get what I mean. Guys, my duty is to explain to you guys what exactly is happening in the forex market so that you can use this information to make more money. As you can see, we've been coasting, making lower lows, lower highs, lower lows, lower highs, lower lows, lower highs, and we've been coasting all the way to the downside. Now, because of the fact that we know how to do the top-down analysis, we were actually able to predict that the Euro was actually going to come to parity, and my overall target was 0.9600. And as you can see, we've come here and we've absolutely turned around. Now, simple. This collapse, we must always have a result and move. Always. And usually, the collapse is a lot sweeter because as you can see, pullback for, pullback for, pullback for, these pullbacks give traders the opportunity to jump into the trend. So for every pullback we've been adding, as you can imagine, from all the way from 1.143 to nine, all the way down to 0.9600, which is sorry for the breaking transmission. I am back. My mom was trying to call me, you know, how much I love my mom. It's very important for me to obviously take care of her and most of my forex profits. Yeah, I go spend time with my family and enjoy myself. And I wish to save for you guys as well because our parents are everything. I wish you guys success. Make a lot of money from the forex market and I'm gonna take it obviously to take care of your family as well. Now, back to what I was saying. So the PIP count from 1.1400 all the way down here. If I'm not mistaken, you're looking about 2,000 PIPs. Now, the top-down analysis, we obviously knew this was gonna collapse. All these lines have been plotted here for, even before the market came here, we had this zone, even the market. So we had all these zones, right? So I mean, look at the crazy PIP count. So for every time the collapse pullback, collapse pullback, collapse pullback. So it's been sweet all the way down. Now, where traders tend to have issues is when they don't know where the market is most likely going to spin around, right? I can't really share that here. Reversal patterns are proprietary to the forex mastery program. So you have to get it to know and understand when the market is about to reverse. But anyways, we did reverse. I knew we were gonna reverse because I was saying it. I actually stopped trading after this last pullback, which is about here. You can check my previous videos on YouTube, because I could see from the price action that the market was gonna spin around on. Obviously, we had a major level plotted. Don't forget, guys, no indicator can plot this for you. Pure technical analysis for you to be able to do all of this. Now, we started to rally all the way back to the upside. Now, this is exactly where the traders came to lose their money. Why? Because, why? Because, they kept on, you know, when you've been shorting the market for such a long time, you start to feel like the market can only go lower, right? So every time we pull back up like this, they started selling, you give them some profit, push back up. You do like you want to come back down, push back and all that. So they gave away most of their gains here, okay? But like I keep saying to you guys, once again, you always have to remember this for future purposes. For every major move, there must be a resultant move. Now, the question is, what do I think these pairs are going to do next? Now, it's a 50-50 scenario. It's still very much a 50-50 case. Day traders will argue with me, as a matter of fact, before I recorded this video, I just literally had a spaz out with day traders on Twitter. Most of them are gonna watch this and yeah, day traders still don't make money. They're still broke. That's a hill I'm really, really, really much ready to die on. Because most of the time, day traders don't exactly know the direction of the overall direction of the market. They just trade blindly on the very lower timeframes. They don't get to see the bigger picture like we can see right about here, right? Just by looking at Euro-USD, just from a high timeframe perspective, I know that if we continue in this trajectory, the next level target is gonna be 1.04889. Most people who are using lower timeframe strategies don't, they can't see this. Now, this is where a lot of people get it wrong. Yes, you can use your lower timeframe strategy, but you need to be able to use it in confidence with whatever is happening on the higher timeframe. If you combine these two things together, only then can you consistently extract money from the market. But most of these guys, scalpers just jumping in and out, they just wanna make a quick buck, then you're gambling, then you're not actually trading. So if you know you wanna separate yourself from the rest of the pack, this is this kind of stuff you should digest, this is kind of stuff you need to learn how to do. So top-down analysis, once again, they're linked to the Forex Matches Program. So around here, it's always on the link in the description, right? Get it and change your perspective and stop playing around these damn day traders, right? So what is Euro-USD going to do next? Now, judging from what I can see right about here, I can see that we've pulled back significantly. I'm just gonna do a quick analysis on Euro-USD. As you can see, we've pulled back into this 50 Fibonacci level. So this market is still technically in the downtrend. Why? Because we have high, low, high, lower, low. This is technically looking like a lower high. It's basic principles of price action. You don't need to complicate it. You know indicator is gonna, you don't need anybody to tell you this, right? So from what I can see right about now, we have capped at this region, right? Right about here. So 1.10 is acting as a point of resistance. If I'm not mistaken, should be a round number. 1.10 is acting as a point of resistance. It is a round number. If I'm not mistaken, around one, two, is around number, is all right, cool. So it's acting as a point of resistance and now the market seems to be coming back down. Now, ideally I should be bearish on Euro-USD. Now, when I speak about Euro-USD, most of the pairs are pretty much the Euro and the British pound are actually kind of like in line with what exactly I'm saying. But what I can see from Euro-USD is yes, indeed we want to point lower. I would favor this to the downside. Why? Because if you come on higher timeframe, the higher timeframe always paints a bigger picture, right? The higher timeframe is telling me that this is a massive push to the downside. Huge. This is a retracement because we've made a lower, low, high, lower, low, lower, high, lower, low, lower, high, right? So because we've made a lower, low about here, this is a, we've broken down here and we're technically making a lower high, I would start to favor to the downside. However, you see, I always have a however so that we can always preserve our capital and we don't get ahead of ourselves. There's a counter trend line that's in place somewhere about here. Now, most people will say, oh, dabs, but it's gonna take us forever for us to trade and this is what I always tell people. You have to understand that during a period of consolidation when the market isn't showing you your setups, you really shouldn't be trading that much. You can play around with the markets but you really shouldn't be trading that much. This, a lot of people fail to comprehend because at the end of the day, we're here to trade the highest probability setups. This is why I can walk into a meeting and people wanna trade, people wanna throw millions of dollars at me. Why? Because I'm a very patient trader, right? People, people will be thrown in all, they wait forever for a setup to form. I would rather wait for a high probability setup and guarantee a 10% return on investment on a trade than to be scouting around for setups and then lose money on it. Guys, we're not here to constantly be trading, we're here to consistently make money. So I have to ask myself and this question you need to ask yourself as well, why am I trading? Am I trading because I'm bored? Am I trading because I'm jobless? Or I'm trading because I wanna make money consistently. Now, if you wanna make money consistently, you need to understand that patience is a virtue and patience is an attribute that is only attributed to the winners in this game. So once again, I will be watching EuroUSD. Ideally, this market should come down into this blue box about here. Now, what will determine if the Euro will continue falling lower? Because to be honest, at this point, anything can happen, right? I would ideally want this market to come close back down below this blue bar for further downside. But if we sustain above this blue bar, we can push to the upside without a doubt. You see, as a trader, the reason why I'm always right is because I like to, I love price dictates. Tell me what exactly are you gonna do? I'm not gonna tell you what to do because you're gonna do what you wanna do anyways, right? So I always like to present all these, my cases and all these scenarios and leave the room open for the market to do what exactly it wants to do. But I like when the market does what it wants to do and then it commits to a particular direction. Right now, the Euro isn't committing. I would like for it to come down here. The only way I'll be interested in the Euro is if we come down here, break down here, or we form, let me show you why I'm being careful here, guys. You see, I've been doing this shit for a very long time, right? And most of the time, when I tell people, don't do this, don't do that, is because I have experienced that particular, that the main reason why I'm so good in Forex is because I've seen a lot of trades. I've traded a lot of setups. I've seen a lot of patterns, that's what I'm looking for. Now, look at this very carefully, right? So we've broken back into this major support and we're currently on top of it right about here. I want this market to break down here for a reason. We can come here and turn around. If you go to AUD-USD, look at AUD-USD. Very similar thing happened in when April of, this was during lockdown, I remember I was doing a webinar. You can see, we pulled down here and we formed a base about here and we rallied to the upside. This base, once this base was formed, I was expecting the market to come down here close down below here. The market didn't do that. So I waited to see what was happening and we formed the double bottom about here and the monthly candle showed me, monthly pattern showed me this. This is a bullish engulfing pattern. So once I saw this, I was like, aha, the market has to use this as a base and he wants to go higher. Where was he most likely gonna go higher to? This blue bar right about here because we all know that the market moves from zone to zone. So what I'm trying to say here in essence is it's always important for you to wait for confirmation from higher timeframes. Once the market, once the market just wants to start going, okay, once the market wants to start going, then at least you're sure that indeed we want to head into this direction. But best believe lower time frame traders, AKA day traders will still be trying to short this market or they will still be on the euro right now, clicking buy, sell, buy, sell. They have no idea. They imagine people have no idea what the euro is gonna do next. Even the euro doesn't know what he wants to do next. But you see traders, day traders, they still want to come there and be acting like they know what's happening, right? There's always, there's a buy, there's a sell. Every day, there's a buy, there's a buy, there's a buy, there's a sell, there's a sell. Meanwhile, the euro doesn't even know what he wants to do, right? He has no idea. So two things, I'm expecting two things from the euro USD, a break lower or a push to the upside. I would allow candlestick patterns, okay? So candlestick patterns would dictate what exactly is gonna happen around this region. You see my trading, very simple and straightforward. I don't need to complicate it. When the market is ready, it will come knock on my door. Mr. Willis, I am ready. So enough about the euro. The same situation is happening for GBPUSD as we speak. So you can see GBPUSD, hold on guys. I go over to the weekly timeframe. GBPUSD is very similar to the euro. Although the difference is, I'll show you the difference is the euro jumped the consolidation for the euro. So let me just zoom this in because I don't know if you guys be able to see it. The consolidation for the euro jumped and closed above and started on top here. I was, he was on top of the resistance which is now supportive, right? The difference between that and this is this one is on the resistance level. So this one is actually telling me that I was not able to break this resistance level low. This is more, you know, I'm more at peace with this one, right? The euro will still need to show me some extra commitment. When I tell people that I'm right nine out of 10 times, they are, they question me. They be like, I don't believe you. Now let me explain to you why I am right nine out of 10 times. It's because I wait for extra confirmation. You see, this market has something like, it's spiritual, right? Pulling, pulling, you're pulling you. You have to within yourself have to say, no, I'm going to wait for my setups. I'm going to be patient for you to confirm to me because trust me, they're market manipulators. They're market manipulators in this game. The market knows exactly what it's doing. The market will shake out retail traders, shake them out before it goes in this exact direction. I don't consider myself a retail trader. I manage well over $150 million. Okay, I go 150 asset on the management. I'm not a retail trader anymore. I'm an institutional trader. So I have to think like one and I have to trade like one, right? So I will wait for an extra confirmation. In this case, GBP USC showing more promising signs. So if I just quickly take my Fibonacci from swing low to swing, swing high to swing low, you can see this is a resistance and a Fibonacci at play. Let me also see maybe we can get trend line to, trend line conference not looking likely, but maybe. So technically we're still trading under this trend line, right? Right about here. Now this is more, I feel more comfortable with GBP USD. So what I'm going to do next, it's very simple, right? As you can see, I would put my counter trend line like so which the market seems to have broken right about. Now, what do I then do next? Simple and straightforward. There's a minor support level. Okay, I'm teaching you guys. There's a simple and straightforward. There's a minor support level. Now before I save anything further, let me quickly do a top-down analysis on GPUs so that you guys know why I'm looking at a sale. Look at the higher timeframe. We all know monthly is, this is a huge push, pull back. So it's, we're bearish. Monthly timeframe needs to tell us down. Weekly, plot our key levels on the weekly timeframe. I'm forgetting this level right about here. This was the level. Okay, cool. So you can see we've plotted our key levels. They look really nice here, here, here. Everything looking cool. Counter trend line has been drawn. We don't draw that on the monthly. We draw that on the daily timeframe. So if you draw your counter trend line like so, this you would have gotten triggered about here. Okay, you'll be short already. So most people are already about break even now. Most people who trade my style of trading. I mean, the professionals, I mean. But I like for extra confirmation. So I do this, right? So this is on the daily timeframe. So what do I then do? What's the next thing to do? We've broken this out, breakout returns continuation. There's one reason why this market hasn't dropped. It's because of this minor support level about here. Now I can tell you for free. And I can categorically state this. When, if and when GBPUSD breaks 1.19068, we are going to bleed all the way down to 1.1400. Let me just adjust this properly. 1.1400, sorry. If you want to learn how to plot these levels very accurately Forex Mach 3 program will help you. So module four, right? Once we break here, we're coming all the way down here without a doubt. And once we clear here, you're coming here. But the market needs to confirm to you first. Look at this entire juice. If you calculate the PIP count from 1.1900 all the way down to 1.0. So this is a thousand, a potential 1,100 PIP drop. Now ask yourself this. Would you rather be trying to catch 10, 12, 15 pips every day? Today you're up 10 pips. Tomorrow you're down 30 pips. Tomorrow you're up 15. Next day 35. Next day you're down 70. Stressed, blood rushing through your freaking veins. You know, you're stressed out. You know, you're frustrated. Only to maybe back at the end of the year at the end of the month maybe plus 100 pips. That's if you actually make a profitable month. You go through all that day in, day out. Plus 30 pips minus 25, plus 120 minus 30. And at the end of the month, let's say, let's say you had a good month, 100 pips, 150 pips. All that stress. You wake up every day. London session nine o'clock, you're on your desk, remember? Or it can be like me who's always having fun and attending meetings and wearing expensive clothes and flying first class who just checks his chart once a day and a lot of us in the market come to him and I still am able to bank 1,100 pips just from five minutes of analysis. Five minutes of analysis, five. It's taking us five. The reason it's taking us a bit longer is because I'm explaining to you guys. This is the power of top-down analysis. This is the power of patience. This is the power of allowing the market do what it's supposed to do. And this is the power of allowing the market to come to you. So simple. It's a 50-50 case right about here. We can blow on all the way to the upside if it does that I'm not interested. But I can see something like a little head and shoulder pattern for me. Once with ladies and gentlemen, you heard it here first on Dapsey Radio. If GBUSD breaks 1.202, next level target is 1.140. If we take this out all the way to the downside, 1.0600. So that's pretty much it. Gym PUSD, I like it. I like it. Gold, not so much. Gold hasn't really given me a proper pattern that I like to trade yet. I'm monitoring gold in one corner of my eyes. Now let's look at BTC. Let's look at BTC to prove to you that this can be used for any single market. When BTC collapsed, to show you how powerful the top-down analysis is, when BTC collapsed, when Bitcoin collapsed, I knew it was going to collapse. Why? Because there's a principle of price action that states that if indeed a market is going to continue going higher, we need to make a significant higher high. A what a significant higher high. The market came on the multi-typing and closed at the previous high, making this a double bottom, double top rather. And then I started to see this red bar. I said it's over for, it's over. It's over for BTC, it's over. And then what happened? When day traders are struggling here, I'm trying to buy it. So I could already see. I could see that from here, if we're unable to break here, the next level target was going to be down here. So I predicted the collapse of Bitcoin from 57K all the way down to 34K, even lower actually. I predict all the way down here, but that's the story from the update, right? How did I know that? It's simple, higher timeframe paints the picture. Once I was able to identify this move, then I came on the lower timeframe and I started looking for pullback sell setups. I do come on the lower timeframe to trade. I just don't analyze on the lower timeframe. That's the mistake a lot of people make. I do come on the lower timeframe to trade. I just don't analyze on the lower timeframe because it doesn't tell me shit. It doesn't tell me anything. Everything I need to know is on the what higher timeframe. Okay, then once I was able to anticipate that, yes, next level target is going to be down here, simply can come to your forward timeframe. Because I was able to anticipate that, oh, the market was going to collapse all the way to the downside. When you then come to a lower timeframe, all you look for is sell setups. There's a lot of pullbacks here, sell here, sell here, sell here. And I've made all this move, sell here. There's a lot of sell opportunities if you follow the entry and exit strategy that I teach on the Forex Mastery Program. You would have found a lot of, I was able to short sell BTC all the way down. Even around here, I was still selling, okay? Now, once again, the power of top-down analysis and being able to trade every single market. Now that BTC is about here, what is the next step? I always tell you why what happened, why this happened, why that happened and what exactly is going to be the next step, okay? Excuse me. I just moved this a bit higher to about here. So, support broke below it, couldn't resustain. We're not back above it. From what I can see, ladies and gentlemen, liquidity is coming into the crypto market right about now. I am anticipating. So right now, BTC has a minor support, which is about here. So this level is acting as minor support. It's about $24,700 per coin. It's acting like major resistance. If we can clear this on the daily candle close, which should be soon, which should be soon. Next level target for Bitcoin will be 32K. Yes, I said it, Bitcoin 32K. Because Bitcoin, Bitcoin don't try it on. Everybody has insulted crypto. Crypto is back, crypto is back. So yeah, we would most likely try to jump into this region. Will we jump above back into this region? Only price can dictate that once we get here. But I can tell you for free, once Bitcoin clays to only $4,800 per coin, next level target is 32K, I will be jumping on Bitcoin as well, okay? Why? Because as you can see clearly, that's the next demand zone. So your setup is gonna look a bit like this. Push up, come to lower timeframe, look for significant pullbacks, and then voila, all the way to the upside. But Bitcoin will need to give me a daily candle confirmation somewhere around here, and then I'll look for buy setups all the way to the upside. You see with this approach, it's simple and straightforward. I've built my case for entry. Another reason why I feel there's a reversal in Bitcoin, sorry I forgot to mention, which is very important, removal aid drain tools, is because this is a reversal pattern, the candlestick pattern. This is a what reversal candlestick pattern. You see when patterns form, I keep getting this level wrong, hold on guys. You see when levels form on monthly time, sorry, when candlestick patterns, double tops, double top, double bottom candlestick patterns. When they form on a monthly timeframe, and on a major level, you have to pay attention to them. They are very important, okay? Because of that, I know for a fact that the market is due for a pullback. The market isn't just gonna drop like this without pulling back. Look, for every time we drop to a pullback, we're dropping, we need to come, we need to bridge. The market needs bridge, so we'll do this. So this actually lines up with the Fibonacci retracement for the A, B, C, D leg. I don't know what's gonna happen when we get here. Once again, the market has to dictate. But what I do know for free is we're coming here once we clear out this level. So that's BTC guys. Simple, straightforward, top-down analysis. It's so easy, so straightforward to understand. If you want more depth information about it, how to use it for Xmas Street Program is your friend, the link is in the description as always. So I think I'm gonna end with just the Euro and GBP for this week. Next week I'll be back. AUDUSD, I'm also, ooh, forgot to mention this bad boy. Bad boy, this is actually one of my favorite pairs. So this is exactly what's happening to AUDUSD. So if you notice something about all the pairs at the moment, all the pairs that you, all the US dollar pairs, right? If you notice something at the moment, all of them are all slanting like this. They have all retraced. All that time you were stressing yourself, they were just retracing. That's why I keep telling these day-day traders, don't listen. All that time you were stressed out, not being able to make a profit. I was chilling on holiday. The market was retracing. I knew this, that's why I left it alone. That's why I keep telling you guys, get into your coconut head. If you're always zoomed in day trading, people like me are always gonna come take money from you because when you are resting, you're stressing. And when we come back, we always come back with utmost certainty, high strike rates. And by that time, you have either run out of capital, you're emotionally distressed, or you're on the wrong side of the market. So once again, ladies and gentlemen, and my name is Dapo Willis, in short to get the Forex Mastery Program so that you can understand how to do a top-down analysis. I am back now, I'm not going anywhere. This year, I'm dedicating it to YouTube, to you guys, to trading and YouTube. I love you guys very much. And I'll catch you guys on my other screen. Let us go. Hey guys, thank you for staying to the very end of this very, very lengthy video. I hope you enjoyed the analysis. As you can see, I have explained to you guys what is most likely going to play out for the year ahead. My name is Dapo Willis, and that's my time. Once again, if you haven't subscribed to the Forex Mastery Program, the link is around here as always. Don't forget to smash the subscribe button and I'll catch you guys in my subsequent videos.

Breast Cancer and the Bovine Leukemia Virus in Meat and Dairy
Exposure to the bovine leukemia virus from meat and dairy (or a blood transfusion from those who eat meat or dairy) is a risk factor for cancer. If you missed the previous video, see Bovine Leukemia Virus as a Cause of Breast Cancer (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/bovine-leukemia-virus-as-a-cause-of-breast-cancer). Avoiding infectious risks like BLV is another advantage of making meat without animals.

In 2015, researchers in California found bovine leukemia virus stitched into the DNA of human breast cancer tumors from mastectomies at such higher rates than was found in normal breast tissue taken from breast reduction surgery that they calculated that as many as 37% of breast cancer cases may be attributable to bovine leukemia virus exposure, likely through the consumption of milk or meat obtained from infected animals. In response, the milk and meat industry seemed more concerned about consumer confidence than consumer cancer, but scientifically, the research priority turned to could the California results be replicated? The answer, it turns out, was yes. They were replicated among women in Iran, replicated in Brazil, in Australia. The link was even stronger. In Texas, the same thing. Women diagnosed with breast cancer were found to be so much more likely to have bovine leukemia virus DNA in their breast tissue compared with women without cancer, that the attributable risk was calculated at 51.82%, indicating that this mean dairy virus could be responsible for at least one half of the breast cancer cases among the women in Texas they studied. All in all, six of the eight studies performed to date found the virus in human breast tissues, which suggests strongly that BLV does infect humans and breasts can be targets of infection. And four of the five studies that were able to compare infection rates in cancerous tissue versus normal breast tissue found that the odds of finding the virus in the tumors was an average of four times higher. How does that compare to other breast cancer risk factors? If you go on hormone replacement for five years, you can bump up your breast cancer risk by 30%. If you take the pill for more than a dozen years, your risk may go up 40%. If you're obese, when you're older, your risk can go up 60%. Having a first-degree relative with breast cancer may double your risk, but having your breast infected with bovine leukemia virus may quadruple your risk, increase your risk hundreds of percent. The only risk factor is more potent than BLV infection. We're having BRCA gene mutations like Angelina Jolina has, or a high dose of ionizing radiation, like being in the wrong place at decidedly the wrong time. Beyond confirmation, one study suggested that older patients had a greater likelihood of testing positive for bovine leukemia virus. That makes sense. If BLV is from exposure to dairy and meat, the older we get, the more meals we've had, the more opportunities have become infected over time. Researchers also discovered that the virus comes first, present in some breast tissues 3 to 10 years before cancer was diagnosed. This argues against the idea of viral invasion of already malignant cells, quashing the theory that maybe the virus is somehow just attracted to the cancer after the fact. Could this explain the consistent findings that breast cancer tissue is more likely to harbor infection? Again, the data showed no, the virus appeared to come first. Now this review doesn't provide absolute proof that BLV is a cause of breast cancer, but based on the best available balance of evidence, BLV infection does indeed appear to be a breast cancer risk factor. The latest revelation is this now been found in human blood, too. This has a number of potential ramifications. Blood banks, for example, don't screen for it, so it's possible you can get it from consuming meter dairy or getting blood from someone who consumed meter dairy. This could also mean that BLV could cause leukemia in people, too. Doesn't chimpanzees? Two infant chimps were fed milk from cows naturally infected with BLV, and they both died of leukemia. We didn't even know chimps could get leukemia. This certainly suggests the possibility of transmission or induction of leukemia through the injection of milk from BLV-infected cows, or blood-borne spread could carry the virus to other organs and cattle. The virus causes blood cancers, but this may just be because dairy cattle are turned into hamburger when they're still so young, so maybe they don't have time for tumors to grow in other organs. How concerned should we be about bovine leukemia virus? It's not clear yet whether this is a good news story or a bad news story. If subsequent studies show that BLV does cause breast cancer in humans, this will have significant repercussions for the dairy and cattle industries, but that means there's something we can do about it. Perhaps the attempt should be made to eradicate the infection from cattle now, rather than wait for the final word. 21 nations have eradicated BLV from their dairy cattle. In contrast, in the U.S., the BLV prevalence just keeps going up. If the industries are not going to step up and try to eliminate the disease, then the least they can do is eliminate some of the practices that spread the disease between animals. BLV is spread via blood through contaminated needles, saw or gouged dehorners, tattoo pliers, ear taggers, hoof knives, nose tongs, and other tools of the agribusiness trade. Though in view of the emerging information about BLV in human breast cancer, it may be prudent to encourage the complete elimination of BLV in cattle, particularly in the dairy industry. The hope is that either way, it may help reduce the scourge of breast cancer.

Because of our previous video, we've now shown that there's a one-to-one correspondence with cyclic codes and ideals of a cyclic group ring. And so using the natural quotient map, we can map Z2X onto the group ring Z2ZN, because of course we saw earlier that Z2ZN, this is just Z2X where we then mod out by the polynomial X to the N minus one, okay? So this is where our codes are gonna live. We're gonna look at ideals of our group ring. But the group ring is a quotient of a polynomial ring. This polynomial ring Z2X is a Euclidean domain because Z2 is a field. In particular, it's a principal ideal domain. And so every ideal of Z2X is principal. Does that have some consequence on the quotient Z2ZN, the group ring? Absolutely, we see that from this correspondence, the ideals of the group ring Z2ZN are principal ideals which correspond to the ideal, excuse me, they correspond as ideals of the form M of X. So it's principal, it's generated by a polynomial, but we can do one better than that. The kernel of this map, of course, is the principal ideal generated by X to the N minus one. These principal ideals, the ideals of Z2ZN here, they're gonna be principal, yes, and they're going to be, these polynomials M of X have to be the divisors of X to the N minus one. So how these things factor is gonna matter, right? So we look at the factorization of X to the N minus one using binary coefficients. And when we look at those irreducible polynomials, we choose one and that then generates an ideal, that then generates a cyclic code. And so given a cyclic code, it has this unique generator. We call that the minimum, excuse me, the minimal generator polynomial of the cyclic code. Now, why can I say it's unique? Because a principal ideal, it's generators only unique up to association, but in Z2X, the only unit is one. I mean, literally the only unit is one. And so it doesn't have any associates, MX. It is, in fact, unique in that situation. So let me give you an example of how we could then construct a code. So to find a cyclic code, we have to pick an ideal of Z2N, which comes down to picking an irreducible factor. It doesn't even have to be irreducible factor, but we just have to pick a polynomial factor of X to the N minus one for a fixed N. And how you choose that factor, of course, make a difference, right? Because if you choose the factor to be too big or too small, maybe you don't have enough code words, maybe they're too close together. We want them to be sparse. There's some more they'll talk about in the next lecture, of course. But for the sake of example, suppose we are gonna look at the polynomial X to the seven minus one, and we look at this as a binary polynomial. I will leave it as an exercise to the viewer to verify that this is in fact, it's prime factorization over Z2X. Now, the first factor should be pretty obvious because it's X to the seven minus one. We do have the factorization of X minus one times X to the six times X to the fifth plus X to the fourth plus X cubed plus X squared plus X plus one. All right, that one's pretty easy because this works over the rational numbers as well. Nothing special on Z2 there. But I would then leave it up to you, the viewer here to verify the product of those two irreducible cubic polynomials, one plus X cubed and one plus X squared plus X cubed. Their product does in fact equal that. So you can multiply this out and verify it. Clearly, one plus X is irreducible because it is linear. Why are these two cubic polynomials irreducible? That's easy to check as well because it'll be irreducible if and only if it doesn't have a root. Z2 has only two numbers at all, zero and one. And a quick check shows for both of them that neither zero or one are root. So this is in fact an irreducible factorization of X to the seven minus one. So if we wanna create a cyclic code, we have to pick a generator polynomial. And so for the sake of this example, I'm gonna choose my generator polynomial G of X to be one plus X plus X cubed, just because I want, I just picked that one, right? Let me show you then what type of code that gives us, okay? So because we're looking at X to the seven minus one, the encoded messages are going to be seven bits long. Now, because this polynomial is degree three, what that tells you is if I take a four bit message and you time to buy this polynomial because it's degree is three, that'll then create seven bit messages. So that's what we're coming up to here. So using G here, I then have a seven comma seven minus three that is a seven four block code. That is this polynomial code will be a seven four code, okay? Then, and then G of course is gonna be, it's gonna be our encoding map, right? So if we take polynomials in, so we're starting off with four bits, so that means we're gonna look at P three, so we can send over from P three to P seven by multiplying by this polynomial G X, okay? Now, the kernel of the map of multiplying by G X is gonna be this polynomial H of X, where H of X is you take the polynomial X to the seven minus one and you just take away G of X. So just get rid of G and you take everything else. So H is going to be one plus X times one plus X square plus X cubed, which if you multiply that out, you're gonna end up with, whoops, one plus X plus X squared plus X to the fourth like so. So this is gonna be H and this is gonna be G. Notice of course that since H is just X to the seventh minus one over G of X, if you take H of X and you times that by G of X, this is going to give you X to the seven minus one, but in the group ring Z two, Z seven, this is the same thing. Excuse me, Z two, no, yeah, Z two, Z seven, this is the same thing as just zero, right? Cause that's how we mod these things out. H times G is gonna equal zero in that situation cause that this element belongs to the ideal. It generates the ideal. That's what zero means in this situation. And I should have written a P six here earlier. Sorry about that because since G is a cubic polynomial, we start off with three bits. You're gonna add three more to it, the degree here. So you end up with P six. Sorry about that. We reduce mod seven. So that means our polynomials are gonna be a degree at most six. So using the standard basis for P three, which is gonna just gonna be one X, X squared, X cubed and using the standard basis for P six, which is just gonna be one X, X squared, X cubed, X to the fourth, X to the fifth, X to the sixth, et cetera. We can then represent the matrix, that is we can represent multiplication by G using the following matrix right here. Okay? So that is if you multiply one, if you multiply, excuse me, if you multiply one by G, you're gonna end up with this thing right here, right? So you end up with one X, X cubed, like so. If you multiply X by this thing, you're gonna get X, X squared, X to the fourth. It just, it cycles up, of course. If you take X squared and times it by G, you're gonna get X squared, X cubed, X to the fifth. And then lastly, a few times X to the third by G, you'll get X cubed, X to the fourth and X to the sixth, like so. All right, so putting this into coordinates, we get exactly the following generated matrix. So this polynomial, we can identify with this matrix. Multiplication of vectors by this matrix does the exact same thing as multiplication of polynomials by that matrix G, that polynomial G does the exact same thing. Then when we get H, can I get them both on the same screen? Ah-ha. So then the polynomial H, one plus X plus X squared plus X to the fourth is gonna coincide with this matrix right here. And I want you to notice a few things here. Like when we talk about G, I'm gonna slide that thing back up. When you had G, if you looked at the first column, since this first column is supposed to be one times G, you should just see its coefficients. The constant term, the linear term, the quadratic term, the cubic term, the quartic, the quintic, and the hextic, sextic, something like that. Terms right there. So basically the first column is just the coefficients of G. But then the next column is just you cycle down a row. Then you cycle down a row. Then you cycle down a row. And that's how you form G. It's you just take the coefficients of little G and you just cycle through. You're gonna get something very, very similar for H here when you put it into coordinates. I want you to look at the first row right here, right? I want you to take the coefficients of H but list them backwards, okay? So notice you have one, one, one, zero, one, zero, zero. Okay? So when we take our polynomial H, list it backwards, those are the coefficients in the first row. Then the second row is you're just gonna cycle that through, push it to the left. And then you're gonna cycle that again, push it to the left. And that's how you form this matrix H. And I do want you to verify, pause the video if you need to, that the matrix H times the matrix G is equal to the zero matrix. So this, so the image of G is in fact equal to the kernel of H. So the kernel of H is equal to the image of G. And this is our code C, like so. So once you've just picked, just pick a divisor of X to the N minus one, that forms a cyclic code. All cyclic codes are formed in that manner. And we can then construct its generator matrix just by looking at our generator polynomial. And the columns will just be the columns going up to down and they then cycle through, going downward. But then what's also called H, this, the canonical matrix H here, we can also form using the polynomial H right here, for which in this case you read it right to left and then you're gonna cycle down, cycle to the left as you work through on these things. That's how you build cyclic codes. And so I'm then gonna put this theorem on the screen as we end lecture 31 here. That if we have a factorization of X to the N minus one into H and G, right? So let's say the coefficients of H are H naught, H one X, plus H two X squared all the way up to HK X to the K. And G has as its coefficients, it's decomposition G of X equals G zero plus G one X plus G two X squared all the way up to G in minus K times X to the N minus K. Now of course the sum of these exponents does have to add up to the N. So if one of them is K, the other one's N minus K of course. Then the cyclic code generated by G of X has the following generator matrix, which will be N times N minus K. And we're gonna call that G. And then you're gonna have the, then you'll have the K by N parity check matrix H. I call the canonical earlier. This isn't necessarily gonna be the canonical parity check matrix because it doesn't necessarily have the form A augmented identity, but that's okay. This one's pretty awesome too. This is going to be our, this is gonna be a cyclic code we can generate from these polynomials. And the pattern always happens the way I described it here. The first column is just the coefficients of, it's just the coefficients of G in ascending order. I used to start with, you start with the G zero, the G one, then G two all the way up till the end. And you get zeros for this places you don't have anymore. And then each subsequent column, you're gonna shift down. You're gonna shift down all the way through. And you eventually should end with the largest coefficient then on the bottom. That's how you form G. But then with H starting with the top row, you're gonna put this in descending order. So the very, very largest coefficient shows up first, although there is a bunch of zeros. So I actually like to think of it more as going from the right. You have the constant term right here. Then you'll have H one and H two all the way up to HK. That gives you the first row. So again, with G, the first column is the polynomial G and then there's a cyclic shift downward. But with H, the first row is the polynomial H and then you're gonna see this shift downward. Every time you go down a row, it's gonna shift to the left, shift to the left, shift to the left, shift to the left until eventually HK is over here. With the G columns, of course, every time you go down, that is every time you go to the right, it's gonna go down one. And so you have this cyclic behavior and you're gonna get the properties that H times G does equals zero. So this does give you a linear code. And this linear code in fact will be cyclic. And then these two matrices, the generator and parity check matrices are developed from the polynomials G and H so effortlessly. So even if you don't wanna do the group ring stuff, you can turn this code into a matrix just like we did in math 4220, but it'll have this cyclic property because we utilize the algebraic structure of a group ring. And that's pretty awesome. Group rings are the coolest. And that brings us to the end of lecture 31. I appreciate you for watching.

Hi, in this video we'll observe how to configure Bitescout Cloud API server. In the last video, we have gone through setting up API server in Internet Information Server, IIS. To begin with, let's explore the API server publish folder. Here, we have all published files for API server. We're mostly interested in the web.config file. It's the key file for setting up various configurations. Let's open a web.config file with any text editor. I am using visual studio code. In the web.config file, under configuration, app settings, it contains all settings. To begin with, we'll be going through some key settings. Storage type, this represents the output location of generated files. It can be either local or s3. If the storage type is local, output files will be stored locally in the specified folder. We also need to specify additional settings for local storage such as storage path, base URL, lifespan of stored files, etc. On the other hand, if we have configured storage type as s3, then output files will be stored on AWS s3 storage. As expected, we have to provide s3 related settings. For example, bucket name, AWS keys, server region, etc. Let's see the contents of the local storage folder. Here, we have a local storage type. Let me grab the path and open it in file explorer. As we observe, it contains several folders with output files inside. Please note that these files are temporary and will be deleted after specified duration. One important note here, we have to give right permission to an IIS user so that files can be generated at the specific location. Follow these steps to check rights. Right click on the output folder and navigate to properties. I have already given rights here. We can check by going to the sharing tab and verifying allowed roles in the share menu. Folders specified by local storage settings contain nested folders with output files. Let's observe them. Now moving to other configuration settings, base URL will be used in API response to refer to output files. Log exception type represents error log type. It can be either none, local, email or both. Naming is self-explanatory. In case of local error message logging, we need to provide an output folder path for error logging. Let me open an error log in file explorer. As of now there are no error files, lucky me, but in case of error that will be stored here can be very useful for diagnosis.

My name is Jasmine Hernandez. I'm a first generation American. I'm the daughter of African Dominican immigrants and I'm a Dominican Yorker. I'm also the EIC and the founder of Gallery Girls where I celebrate women, POC, QT POC in the art space. A radical woman is bold and fearless. She stands in her truth. She supports other women and she usually takes the road less traveled. I nominate Janelle Martinez as my radical woman. She's a fellow Afro-Latina. She's the founder and EIC of Ain't I Latina. It's a digital space expanding the definition of Afro-Latinx womanhood. And she's someone that I greatly admire and someone who's really shifting the conversation in these times. I now invite my nominee Janelle Martinez to join the campaign and anyone else is watching to nominate another radical woman.

if we can get clear on what our 100% is today and we can get ourself to that 100% today and we're doing that every single day, we're gonna make progress every single day. Oh, hey guys, welcome to the show. Oh wait, roll the trailer, where on that cool trailer were we made? Wait, roll of that. Oh! Oh! Everybody wants the shortcut. Oh! What's the best work out? What's the secret? The secret is asking yourself, how far are you willing to go? How honest are you willing to get? How hard are you willing to push yourself? Those answers are only within you. Only you can answer them. So stop waiting, dive in, let's go! Done with the limits removed for the day. I don't wanna answer good questions but that's on the surface. I'd rather have freedom this way. Let me teach you to fish. Powers within, now you can win. You know what this is? Anybody in the back? No, yeah? Infinity, limitless. Let's do this, make it fun. Oh, I should have done this. I made it extended, limitless. That doesn't look, it kinda looks like a face. Oh God, let's not do that. Oh Jesus, let's not do that. Ow, what is happening? Start again, limitless, okay? That's it, that's all we're doing. So, I had my highest jumping day ever. It's not measured but here's the thing. What if that friggin' truck, who's doing that? Yo, so this past session was possibly my highest jumping ever. I say possibly because I felt it but I didn't actually measure it. Now I wanna ask you this, who's doing that after 10 years, okay? Who's doing that? How many people have you seen? Come and go, come and go. Common plateau, common plateau. Not you, maybe you, I have but I don't want you to plateau. That's why we're living limitless. You gotta remove the limits, okay? But that's the point of this and from my 10 years of experience this is what I've learned and I want you guys to not fall in my same traps. That being said, let's talk about last session. I felt like I was jumping some of my highest. I wasn't even on the freshest body which is what I'm gonna talk about today to make building the foundation, not trying to save your progress for a great day, not wasting gains, all these different things, not overtraining, all of those things today. That being said, best backboard of my life. I think best backboard of my life. I would've loved it to be yam yam where it shoots down but I mean the extend though, that extend though, I don't know if my shoulder can even do that without going for the ball, it's just like a mental thing but that extend though right there, best backboard of my life, most likely. Really bouncy. They don't feel like I wanna run through a wall. I didn't walk in here wanting to run through a wall but I feel super powerful in my first couple of jumps. Super up there, I just have to focus on technique and my adrenaline's building so I have to stick with that technique so that way I don't carve wrong patterns but it's really important in this stage for me that I don't overdo it, go too fast, stick with the patterns while you're singing doing smaller jumps, even though I'm ready to go hard, wasting my body to catch up. We're jumping out here, that's where we're going. Remove the ceilings, you gotta remove the ceilings. Yeah, so we're gonna go way deeper than skin today. Anywho, one of my distance dunks, I felt like I jumped higher than I ever have and previous sessions I was hitting my head on the backboard super effortlessly and now what I'm most excited for is jumping this high with a totally different foundation which is what I want you guys to build. So this is how I train every single day, this is how I make endless progress and it's a process. It's a process, it requires patience, it requires clarity, it requires awareness. So all of these things are going to play a factor, let's jump. So you're always expressing your limits, you're always building clarity on your limits. So what I mean by that is, that's clarity, terrible marker, of course I choose the wrong one, let's kinda, I love how the word clarity is very unclear, huh? Okay, I'm gonna try to keep this very simple if you hear any piece you want me to dive deeper on, I would love to and there's a lot, a lot, a lot of branches that I've learned in both of these categories when it comes to training, I'm gonna give you the high level general overview so you can get started today but any branch that you wanna dive into, I have a lot of experience and this is what it's come back to, it's kinda like a cliche statement in like life is great but then until you have really hard times you go deep into the friggin' subconscious of your brain and you realize, okay, life is good and then you're like, oh, that has a different meaning now, that's what this is. By the way, every like, every share, every subscribe, especially the shares, amplifies the energy because if you feel something, give me a little something back, share it. If it's boosting you, well, give it to somebody else, ooh, we all boost each other, we grow together like mushrooms, what? I'm gonna keep this strictly focused on jumping but this can be applied to anything, training and not training, so max energy. This is your limits, we are either expressing our limits or building clarity on our limits and when it comes to jump training we want max energy, we want to exceed our limits, we want to jump higher. But the thing that happens when we plateau is that we've maxed out our max energy, we don't have enough energy, maybe we don't have enough strength, maybe we keep not stimulating our bodies in the correct ways because our body gets too good at what we're doing but early on we start jumping, we start lifting a few weights, maybe we feel sore some days and then all of a sudden we respond and we grow because we were in that easy cycle without as many complexities. That's why I'm bringing you a big complex concept for you to start working on so you can start building this foundation and not stop when the plateau happens, you start building clarity instead. Now a couple keys with this is you're always doing one or the other and it'll get clear as we go but you're also always intertwining the two as well. So let's go. So when you wake up, the first thing I want you to do is notice how you feel, notice your energy for the day. For me today, the reason I made these videos is because I feel amazing, my energy's high, I feel like I want to attack, I feel like I want to express my mood is high. That's a really big sign I want to express max energy, okay? But now when I get to the gym, I still have to be focused, aware and in the moment of saying how do I feel today is my body a little tweaked from yesterday because I'm working out every day. We're not just taking a week off over here to get max energy. We're building baby steps into a max energy day. So look, when I walk into the gym and I go through my warm up, how am I feeling? Am I noticing that I'm performing really great from the start or am I noticing that my warmth is taking longer than usual and I feel stiff? All these things are building awareness as you're warming up. So now, so an overall theme for every single day of your life is do your best. And there's two parts to that. That is the 100%, the two sides of doing 100%. What is the 100%? Can you get yourself there? Can you push yourself to 100 today? And what is it? That's the clarity. So while we're expressing it in our workouts, we can say to ourselves, are we giving max energy for what we have today? Every day's 100 is different. The days we exceed our limits are going to be the days where everything is on fire. Your body's ready, you're fresh, you're mentally there, you've put in the work, and now your energy matches the time you're at the gym expressing yourself to jump higher. That's when you exceed limits. But on other days, we aren't feeling that great, but that doesn't mean we don't give it 100%. That just might mean our expression of 100% is a lot different than max jumping or exceeding our limits. So what is that? So when our energy is maxed, that's when we exceed, boom, exceed limits. When it's a little lower, push our limits, okay? And this is leading us to max energy. This is not really a cycle, but it is kind of a cycle. But here's the thing also, side note. This is for my maniacs. This is for the people that understand that they want to go, they want to go, they want to go, but they have to rest and they have to build a foundation. If you're having trouble just getting motivated, you should move every single day. If your 100 is low and you're not even in shape and you don't even know where to start, just push yourself every single day. When you get to the gym, say, what's my best today, am I doing that? So the point is building awareness on this, doing your best in this 100% is gonna be the biggest key. If we can get clear on what our 100% is today and we can get ourselves to that 100% today and we're doing that every single day, we're gonna make progress every single day. The obstacle comes in when we don't push ourselves, that's when we plateau, we don't give it 100, so we're not stimulating anything and we're just staying put. Or we don't know what 100 is and we do too much and we over train. So that's why this is so powerful. So what it is with clarity and expressing is while you're expressing, while you're working out, stay aware to understand, am I pushing myself 100? Keep the do your best as your mantra, as your intention, be like, am I doing my best right now? Am I pushing myself? And a lot of times you'll illuminate thoughts. Like for me, I'll be like, I'm being impatient because I know my body needs to rest. I feel this tweak. I know I'm hesitating off this plant because I'm hurting. Or I'm feeling lazy, all these, I don't have that, but. Or what I've done in the past is I'm not pushing 100% because I'm not jumping that great and I wanna save my energy for another day to exceed my limits. But we can't exceed them every day, but we can do our best every day. And that is a huge difference because, because when we try to save our energy, we're not making a step. Think of every single day as a step in your foundation and progress, okay? And so I'm on the side where I used to over train too much by building clarity, I understand my mind better to make sure I'm hitting that 100 every day. So now let's get into some tangible things to help illuminate that clarity and get clear on what that 100 is for the day. I have a whole course on this called the Limitless Foundations Endless Energy. I keep renaming it, but the point is it's the energy foundations of your life. Sleep, nutrition, and movement. And a lot of the movement is about the expression part of this category. But what it is, is if you sleep right, you eat right, and you did what 100 yesterday, now your next day going forward, you're gonna be very clear. It's like, okay, I feel great, I ate great, my body feels great, my mentality is focused and motivated, I feel great. I know what my 100 is today. But then, even though you have clarity on it, when you go to the gym, you still say to yourself, I'm gonna do my best. Every day I'm gonna do my best. So that way, you don't have any expectations. And the reason you don't want expectations when you're in the gym is because you want to push the limits gradually. Because you don't know if this is the day to exceed the limits. You can't choose a day to exceed limits. But what you can do is choose a day to push the limits. So you push the limits every day, and if you effortlessly exceed your limits, that is golden. That's the jump that I had the other day. I was not the best. I was just having fun, feeling great, and all of a sudden I'm pushing. I'm like, oh, I'm gonna try a little harder. I'm gonna push a little harder. See where my 100's at. See where my 100's at. And all of a sudden I'm freaking flying, okay? That's how you do it, because then every single day you're making progress. But if you go in there with expectations, then you're like, I'm supposed to exceed my limits, and if you're gonna push as hard as you possibly can, you're gonna go past 100 and over train. And that's not gonna be helpful. This is a process. You don't understand how to push yourself to 100 with the fears and the doubts, and you worry, am I gonna get too big? Am I gonna overdo it? That's one fear you have to get over. And then getting clear in on what is my 100 getting better at the art of saying, ooh, this is exactly what my body needs. That takes time of doing this every single day. That's why there's so many branches. So if you're sleeping right, eating right, when you're building this clarity and you say, wait a second, and you had a terrible sleep, you're gonna say, oh, I feel terrible today. Well, is it the sleep or is it your workout? Is it because you're so sore from your workout or is it because you're barely slept? So there's lots of ways to eliminate variables, but as you eliminate the variables, and as you push yourself day in and day out, and you learn, and you build this clarity, and you build clarity as you're expressing, and you express yourself to build clarity, these two things are going to build awareness. And the more awareness you have, the better you can hit those marks every single day. So I hope that helps. So like I said before, it comes back to a cliche, do your best, that's all you gotta do, do your best. But when you try to actually do your best, ask yourself, did I give 100 today, or did I leave some on the table? And better yet, did I do the wrong thing? Did I do too much? What is my 100? What does my body need? And the more you listen to your body, the more you're gonna notice different things. And then what I want you to notice is your day to day. Would you wake up some days like this when your energy's through the roof, or are you waking up most days super low? And if you're waking up super low, what does it feel like? Are you feeling like lazy, or maybe you still express? Every single day you should still move, even if you're feeling low energy, because a lot of times we need to express that to allow our bodies to recover even faster. But our expression for the day is not max energy, it's just low energy, and that's fine, that's good. That's gonna help you recover even faster. But if you're clear on that, you clear you in hard, you slept well, you ate well, you know your body needs love, it needs movement, it needs blood flow. So that's your expression for the day. That's your max for the day. It doesn't mean you're exceeding your limits that day, but maybe you are building to exceed your limits tangibly and jumping higher because you exceeded your limits of what you used to be able to do. Maybe your recovery days and now what your workouts used to be. So in sense, it is exceeding your limits. I have such big plans for YouTube building a whole limitless media company. It's been a lot of fun. I love making videos. If you've watched any one of my videos, I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you enjoy this one and I hope you stick around for more bigger, better ideas coming to life and I hope you literally enjoy your life on a higher frequency. I love you. I just wanna take it for a drop, you're feeling elevated. Okay, real quick, listen to the rap at the beginning and now it'll have more meaning to you. It's deeper than skin. I wanna teach you to fit, you get it.

Follow @CSIS and @CSIS_PPD for live updates. | #CSISLive The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has played a significant role in the emergence of middle-income countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. Several of these countries have demonstrated a more complex set of development needs. To sustain this trend, the IDB has partnered with both middle-income countries and the private sector to foster impactful trade and development outcomes in Latin America and the Caribbean. Join us for a conversation with IDB executive directors as they discuss the growing role of the IDB, as well as the impact of emerging shareholders, South-South cooperation, the Multilateral Investment Fund, and the post-Busan development agenda on trade and development issues in the region.

Okay folks, we're gonna get started. I'm Dan Rundy, I hold the Shrier Chair here at CSIS. I wanna welcome you to our new building, if you haven't been here before. It's the good news is we have a new building. The bad news is we're still working out some of the kinks in terms. So if the acoustics are slightly off or it's a little colder than we're still adjusting the AC, so just bear with us. And I ask my fellow panelists to also do the same. We have a very interesting panel and on the record conversation about the future of the Inter-American Development Bank and the private sector. We have panelists, three of whom are gonna be speaking in a personal capacity, and I'll indicate which of the three are speaking in a personal capacity. And then we have my very good friend Gustavo Arnavot, who is the US Executive Director for the Inter-American Development Bank, for the United States, for the US and is gonna be speaking on behalf of the United States government. But let me just, you have their biographies in front of you, but I also wanna indicate, we have Dr. Maria Gonzalez Miranda, who is the Executive Director for Mexico in the Dominican Republic. We have Director Leo Cruz, for Executive Director for Belgium, China, Germany, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands and Switzerland. So it's a multiple personality situation. And then we have Kurt M.A. Kisto, who is the Executive Director for the Bahamas, Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, as well. But if I'm correct. So you have their bios in front of you. The way we're gonna run this is I'm gonna ask each of the speakers to make a formal statement. I'm gonna first spend two to three minutes explaining what the heck is the IDB? Why are we having this conversation? Then I'm gonna ask each of the folks to make a formal statement. And then I'd like each of the panelists to respond. I may, as the Chair, ask a couple questions. And then we're gonna open it up for Q&A as well. So let me start with, what is the Inter-American Development Bank? It was started in 1959. It's the largest development bank in terms of lender to the region. I believe it's larger than the World Bank in terms of its actual lending activities in the region. So it's a very major development player. 50.1% of the shares are owned by the borrowers. The largest individual shareholders, the United States, with 30%. It was started in the Eisenhower administration but really got started in a serious way under President Kennedy. And he's remembered fondly at the Inter-American Development Bank. I know there's a statue or there's a bust of President Kennedy in the main foyer at the Inter-American Development Bank. The main lending line of the main set of lending activities for the Inter-American Development Bank, it lends out about 11 to 12 billion dollars a year in what's called the main part of the Inter-American Development Bank, of which about a billion five is private sector, various sorts of private sector lending activities. From that window, if I'm correct, it's not, they cannot make equity investments out of the main Inter-American Development Bank lending line. So the first thing you should think about is there's this first set of activities got the main Inter-American Development Bank that has shareholdings and shareholders and has a specific board. There's separately another thing that's called the Inter-American Investment Corporation, the IIC, which is primarily focused on, primarily focused on small, medium-sized enterprises. They can make equity investments but haven't as of late in the last 10 years or so. And between sort of their own activities as well as sort of catalyzing other investments is about another billion dollars, if I'm correct, more or less. And then there's something that's very, very special at the Inter-American Development Bank that was started under George H. W. Bush that has been championed by both Republicans and Democrats and then also shareheld by other countries as well. It's something called the Multilateral Investment Fund, also known as the MIFF. The Multilateral Investment Fund makes, can make equity investments, can make venture capital investments, invest in a variety of investment funds in the region, has also, but it's about $200 million a year, about a hundred a year in terms of money out the door. And about 70% are in the form of grants. My connectivity with them originated about 10 years ago. They were under Don Terry when he was running the MIFF. He was someone who was a big proponent of looking at the impact of remittances on development. I think he was an early innovator in that particular space. The IDB as a whole was an early innovator, I think, and thinking strategically about remittances and one of the great contributions of the Inter-American Development Bank. There's one other thing. There's something called opportunities for the majority, which is if you go back to sort of, let's say there's three buckets, there's the Inter-American Development Bank, there's the IIC and there's the MIFF. In the main set bucket, the Inter-American Development Bank, there's something called opportunities for the majority, which is a relatively small chunk of the private sector activities. It's about 50 or $60 million a year. It's primarily focused on base of the pyramid sets of activities. Our thinking here at CSIS was to host a variety of the shareholders as opposed to members of the management and these executive directors, as I said, are speaking in their personal capacity, except for Gustavo, who's speaking on behalf of the United States. Because there are rumors that the Inter-American Development Bank is at a transition point in thinking about what role, there's certainly thinking about what's the role of the Inter-American Development Bank in the context of a region that's had 10 fabulous years. It's really had my view is it's had the 10 best years in its history economically. And you have a variety of countries now. You have a number of countries that are becoming upper middle income. You have some countries that are very poor like Haiti and Nicaragua and you have countries that are in between. But if you look at places like Costa Rica and Peru where I've been to in the last six months, these are countries that are inspiring in the kinds of changes that have happened. But I think it creates dilemmas for development institutions like the Inter-American Development Bank. At CSIS we've done two reports and now we'll stop that I think are relevant to this discussion. One is called our shared opportunity, which was a bipartisan commission that looked at the role of the private sector in development and looked at how the various sorts of instruments, so I think the conversation or the description I made of the IDB, the main IDB, the IIC, the MIF, the opportunities for the majority, these sorts of various windows or instruments and how they work together or how they work more strategically together is something that the United States is having a conversation about and it's a conversation that's going on all around the world and thinking about how do we leverage various instruments in a changed and changing context for development and as we hit sort of a ceiling in a period of frankly of austerity where I think my view is the 10 year bull market on official development assistance is over. I don't think we're gonna see large increases globally of ODA over the next five years or even the next 10 years. The second report is something we wrote called strategic foreign assistance transitions looking at the role of how should the United States rethink its relationship with middle income countries. My view is it's really hard sell in the United States to give traditional chicken or beef, foreign aid to countries that have space exploration programs that have starter bilateral foreign assistance programs of their own, but we need to repurpose our cooperation and trade relationship to have a more sophisticated relationship. We shouldn't be offering chicken or beef, foreign aid. We ought to be offering things that look like sinking funds or rethought trade relationships and we looked at five countries in the last 30 years where the United States had exited such as Portugal or Costa Rica or Croatia and one of the Baltic states and what we had left behind is how we'd repurposed our relationship, our reframed our relationship to look more like our relationship with South Korea as opposed to say our relationship with Haiti. So with that, all that, I'm going to stop talking and I'm gonna ask Maria who is speaking in a personal capacity who is the executive, who holds the role of executive director for Mexico and they're making a republic to make a few remarks. Maria, the floor is yours, just push the button. Many thanks and thank you so much for the opportunity to be here. I'm really glad to have this opportunity to talk to you about these issues. I think the question here is that we have to ask ourselves is how the multilateral development banks that I did in particular may remain relevant if not and has their development role in a world that is already characterized by a very rapid and profound change in the balance of economic and political power at a global level. And I think to understand how the IDV can transform itself or should transform itself along with other development banks, we need to understand what these changes are about. I think at the risk of sounding a little bit oversimplistic, I think a first change is the one in the balance of the dynamics of economic activity between advanced economies, emerging markets and low income countries. The last two groups have greater potential output growth for the medium and long term. And as they develop, they are also becoming relatively more integrated to financial markets, gaining much greater access to alternative sources and funding, including at a bilateral level by some of the most buoyant emerging markets that are around, for example, China. What this has implied is that the multilateral development banks have lost some space as a main finance source for both the public and the private sector in the region, in Latin America and the Caribbean, compared to what used to happen decades ago. With this said, I think we should not fall ourselves in thinking that they do not remain as relevant source of funding, especially during low parts of the economic cycle. In Latin America and the Caribbean, those lower income countries with relatively less access to international financing flows still have some 50 to 70% of their external financing represented by multilateral development banks. In middle income countries like Mexico, multilateral development banks still source some 20% of the external debt, even at points of high liquidity financing around in the international markets. It is still true, however, that no MDB or the multilateral development banks together would be capable of doing all the very heavy lifting for the financing that the Latin American, Caribbean region has in terms of needs, including once we add the private sector. A second issue is that more and more countries have developed institutionally and politically, and this reflects in the international arena. This is, in no minor part, the results of the change in balance of the economic power, and this means that the type and quality of the relationship between the multilateral development banks and the borrowing countries has to truly turn into one of partnership. If there is going to be buying of the reforms and through absorption of the technical advice and cooperation that comes with IDB lending or funding in general, it also means that a new level of responsibility almost emerged from member countries of the borrowing, borrowing member countries of the multilateral development banks and middle income countries in particular within those institutions. With this, I don't want to be misunderstood in saying that the multilateral development banks are not needed anymore. It's just that we need to get what the situation is about to know where they need to evolve. I think a few things that just to finish in terms of where should we getting into, in my opinion. Number one, multilateral development banks are still incredibly useful to construct the backbone of structural reforms that continue to be needed if middle income countries are going to consolidate their development. When dealing with the public sector, multilateral development banks provide a great level of additionality in terms of their technical cooperation, a sale of quality, which helps the governments in these countries to garner political support for reform. This implies that we need strong MDBs with sufficient technical quality, reputation and intellectual leadership and presence to support sound public policy frameworks. And it also means that multilateral development banks need to listen to governments and understand where they can and cannot be useful for middle income countries, for example, the greater value comes from areas of intervention with multilateral development banks are properly articulating their lending with the government's development plans and respond flexibly to the needs stated by the country authorities. A second point is that MDBs are still an important source of public financing and even more so at the low parts of the economic cycle. In times of high uncertainty in the global financial markets, MDB public financing can still be a critical component of the country's capacity to manage their micro-fiscal risks appropriately in a manner that protects economic development and the most vulnerable groups. Because since we cannot forget that middle income countries are still faced with critical developmental challenges, important intra-country differences like high poverty inequality which remains serious problems in most middle income countries in the world we do need the multilateral development banks to still have a presence in our countries. This implies that we need MDBs to be sufficiently large and also financially resilient. Until now, much of these resilience had come from the structure of the MDBs in which advanced development partners could support the vagaries of international capital markets and provide backing and support to the development institution roughly at any point in time. But with this being less and less the case, we need to ensure not only that the MDBs have sufficient resources, but also that they are managed in a way that is more suitable to the new realities. In regional development banks in particular, this will require for the middle income countries to gradually gain greater say and also greater responsibility in building or helping build financial offers to ensure that global shocks that may impinge in the region in a highly correlated manner will not affect the soundness of the multilateral development bank itself. This also requires start using resources ever more effectively. A third point is that when working with the private sector, multilateral development banks are mostly a catalyzer. Certainly, multilateral development banks like the IDV cannot cover all the development needs for the private sector, nor they should. They need to help countries develop deeper financial markets rather than crowd at private sector actors. In this sense, cooperation with older donors and private sector agents to enter market segments that are not being attended due to market failures and the presence of externalities is crucial. We should not see these organizations as competitors, multilateral development banks do not compete between them and in any case, competition is actually a good thing. They need to become useful partners which can help structure interventions that generate an important demonstration effect or that help repair some market failures allowing the private sector to flourish. And last, but not least, multilateral development banks can be a very crucial broker for functional cooperation agreements. They have a comparative advantage helping multiple countries coordinate agendas and resources to development ends. Self-app cooperation initiatives form an important part of these efforts. Thank you. Thank you. Gustavo. Great to have you here. Thank you, Dan. Let me start off by thanking CSIS and you in particular, Dan, for organizing this panel. You've been involved in development finance and development activities for at least a decade longer. And I know you've been a strong advocate for the U.S. involvement in multilateral organizations. So thank you for your thought leadership in this area. What I want to do is provide a brief overview of why the United States is even involved in the IDB why it's important to us. Touch a little bit upon the private sector which I know is a subject that's very important. It's a part of a review that's ongoing now within the IDB which I think can be and should be historic. And then later on in the questions I can provide for their details. But as you mentioned, the bank was established in 1959 by President Eisenhower and then following up very strongly by President Kennedy. Really in the context of the Cold War, we recognized back in the late 50s, early 60s that the region with all the poverty, the lack of democracy was very vulnerable to encroachments by the Soviet Union and their allies. And so we needed to do something to attack poverty and equality in a very direct way which is how we got involved. Happily we won the Cold War that is behind us. But at the same time, we continue to be very, very interested in what happens in the region. First, we don't want any rollbacks. We're very proud of how the region has been democratized. And except for one country in the region, my native Cuba, it is a region that by and large is fairly democratic. Clearly we have to continue to see what happens in particular countries. But the region from a political perspective, from an economic perspective has grown and evolved, matured tremendously since the bank was founded 50 years ago. And the United States is very dependent on the region. A lot of people don't realize that we export more, the United States exports more to Latin America and the Caribbean than we do to Europe. Three times what we export to China, for example. A region that is still developing economically. And so one can only imagine as the region continues to mature economically how much that will mean for demand for goods and services from the United States. So it's critically important that we be engaged in the region. We have shown, at least during the administration, strong support for the IDB when we advocated for help to structure the capital increase that we got a few years ago. Capital increase that doubled the lending capacity at the bank from roughly $6 or $7 billion per year prior to the global financial crisis that began in 2008 to roughly $11 to $12 billion. And I have to tell you that this was not an easy thing to do given the fiscal environment in which we find ourselves in and continue to find ourselves in. Trying to convince the Congress that this was a worthy investment. I think in the end the investment the United States made and taxpayers made was a very smart one. Without getting too much of the details of the capital increase, the portion of the paid-in capital that U.S. taxpayers have to invest in is roughly $510 million over five years, $102 million per year for five years. And that investment is going to support an additional $50 to $60 billion of additional investments in this region of the world that was so important to us. So I think it was a very smart investment from in terms of effectiveness, but also its efficiency. And we are a very strong supporter of the bank and the lending that it does. On occasion we're accused of not caring enough because we might abstain or vote no on a particular project, but overwhelmingly I would say that we support the lending of the bank. So long as the lending is done in a way that promotes strong development, effectiveness, and impact, and of course, long as it's being done in a way that's consistent with the policies of the IDB. With respect to the private sector, this for the United States is a very important area of programming. The charter of the IDB provides, authorizes the bank to engage in the private sector. We'll also do it, as Dan mentioned, through a couple of, a few other windows, including the MIF and the IIC, and also opportunities for the majority. But the bulk of it is really, the big number is done through the bank. And we lend directly to some financial institutions, or otherwise, to private companies in the region. Perhaps the signature investment that we've made is the $400 million investment in connection with the Panama Canal expansion, which is so important and only for Panama, but I think it's gonna have a huge effect in the United States. Vice President Biden was in Panama recently and talked about the kind of impact that the expansion of the canal is gonna have on US ports, a very positive impact that it will have. But the bank, I think, I think we believe that the bank can do a better job in the way that it's now deploying its capital in the private sector, which is one of the reasons why we're engaged in this review of these windows and actually ourselves, what's the best way of maximizing development impact? Really, that should be our primary focus. And then we can focus later on on scalability, how big it should be, et cetera. But we wanna make sure that whatever we're spending in the region, whatever investments we're making, we're doing it in a way that maximizes the development effect of those investments. So we very much welcome the review. It's a review actually that began over a decade ago, and I think we're taking it up again under direct instructions from our governors who earlier in the year met in Panama and decided that instructed the board of executive directors, which is what we set to study this issue and to give guidance to management and to work with management carefully on coming up with different alternatives. Sorry, Gustavo, you guys haven't been looking at it for 10 years ongoing. You're revisiting it after 10 years, correct? That's right, that's right. And just let me just finish by saying that in a couple of the ways that we engage in the private sector, as I mentioned, we do make direct investments in companies, but we also work with the public side of the bank, if you will, working with governments in order to ensure an enabling environment so that private business, private enterprise can thrive. So we work with the governments to identify bottlenecks, to identify regulatory areas that can be, we can bring our expertise to ensure that you can have efficient capital formation in these areas, in various countries, that you can have whatever legal regulatory changes can be made in order to provide for more effective security interests, for example, that can be pledged in order to promote in the finance regions, better ways of identifying property interest, again, for the purpose of being able to finance transactions and being able to enable sales of real and personal property. Those are the kinds of things that we also engage in, about promoting capital markets as well and savings, structural tax reforms, et cetera, anything that really ultimately promotes the development locally of savings and of capital. Thank you. Thanks, Gustavo. Thank you very much. I'm gonna ask Mr. Kistoda to speak next, please. Thank you, Dan, and very good morning to you all. We're gonna have a couple minutes to say something about the IDB and the risk of repetition, even though we all sit on the same board. I will try to go off my script on what I have prepared to try to add some more value to the discussion. I think the role of the IDB and the necessity of the IDB has been very well described and articulated thus far. I think I will look at more of the challenges to the IDB and challenges to the IDB in dealing with small island development states, particularly my experience from the Caribbean. A very good starting point would really be to admit that development is dynamic, that development is not a static state of, could never be a static state of affairs, that development will always be aspirational, and the whole process is really an iterative one, and it's not a state that we can truly say that we have arrived at or we have evolved to, because if we are really thinking and if we are really innovating and if we are really growing, we should constantly keep pushing what is that glass ceiling or what is the barrier of how we think and conceive development. And I think that could be a starting point in terms of the kinds of processes that we're looking at now in shaping the role for the Inter-American Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank within the structure of the international, financial architecture. Everything we do is driven by change, everything we do is driven by focus, everything we do is driven by strategy. One must constantly reorient, one must constantly be cognizant of changing clients' needs. And I think most of the change that is taking place and most of the drivers of this change rarely is arising from the way multilateral development financing and the way development financing is emerging within the marketplace. The plethora of new actors, especially new countries on a bilateral basis making development financing available and increasing role of access to capital markets, the role of large transnational firms and a strong voice and innovative development strategies being employed by the enduous sector brings several new challenges to multilateral development banks. And I do believe that this is the context in which the IDB needs to position itself and think about its role and think about its relevance to its member countries in the region. Thinking about small island development states, the constituency with which I represent, as you know, some of the highest indebted countries in the world fall within that category, whereas some strong middle income countries fall into that category. They are all small economies, they are all vulnerable, they're all open to external economic shocks, but they're all open to shocks from climate change in which all development and all development aspirations can easily be wiped out or can easily return to start or return to zero within a day or within two days. These are the kinds of challenges that we must look at and we must be particular cognizance of. I recently came back from a public-private partnership forum in the Caribbean and the discussion hinged on given the high indebted situation in the region and the closure of fiscal space, how do we drive growth? And this growth, everyone, it was the consensus needs to come from and could come from the private sector. This in itself defines a role and defines a space of how the IDB can and could react with such countries. Given that the spaces for policy-based lending is closing, how do we engage in the discussions that we need to engage in? What is the best role for the IDB within the Caribbean in facilitating PPPs? Is it one of access to finance? Is it one of knowledge? Is it one to ensuring that the best practices of PPPs are applied within the region and adapted to the peculiarities of small island states with respect to scope, with respect to size and respect to opportunities? How do we use the IDB knowledge and the IDB relationship with these countries to foster the right type of PPP arrangements that would indeed facilitate the kind of private sector lend road, especially when the fiscal space is closing and the government has few opportunities for fueling such type of growth? There's much talk now as was hinted here on reorganization of the private sector, windows of the IDB, with a view to making it more efficient and relevant to the actors in the region. I do believe that the IDB with its reach in the region, I do believe the IDB with its knowledge in the region, I do believe the IDB with its relationship in the region has tremendous potential to play a catalytic role with the private sector and understanding the government policy framework for private sector growth in the region. This obviously has to be a process that needs to be very well thought of. I do believe the main challenge for the IDB is defining its space. There are many actors, other MDBs, non-state actors, but where does the IDB fit in? Where would it have the most transformational capability? How can it be most catalytic in doing so? And I do believe that that is where we should focus the debate and bring the creative energies of being a multilateral bank, being a bank that has creative institutions like the multilateral investment funds and building on the strengths not only of the IDB as a bank and its non-borrowing members, but using the strength and local knowledge and successes that we have had within Latin America itself over the 10 years, seeing borrowers as well as non-borrowers as partners in thinking through the new development agenda and especially one that is private sector-less. Thank you. Thank you very much. Dr. Cruz, if you would please, just push the button. Thank you, Dan. It's a great honor for me, having been invited to listen Europe and especially in Germany, well-known and recognized institution of the highest reputation. I'm deeply grateful for this invitation. I don't have to refer to the macroeconomic situation of the Latin American countries because all of you know that the macroeconomics foundations in many countries are compared to other regions of the world relatively solid. Of course, we have to recognize that the medium-term outlook is less favorable than in the previous decade, but the latest OECD outlook on Latin American economy, 2013, states that the overall perspectives remain positive. It is nothing new to state that SMEs are of highest relevance for a healthy economy in each and every country. In fact, in a lot of countries, the SMEs are the backbone of the economic success and the wealth of the people. Being a German, allow me a very brief view on the German middle stand to illustrate its importance for economic growth in Germany. Germany has about 3.5 million small and mid-sized businesses collectively known as middle stand. About 99, 99% of all German companies are SMEs. They contribute as much as 52% of total economic output. They are responsible for 37% of the overall turnover of German companies and provide employment for 79%, 79% of the labor force. Many SMEs are global players in valuable niches that are largely invisible to the average consumer, tools, parts, components that are niches that are critical to manufacturing process. The middle stand incorporates companies with fewer than 500 employees or less than 550 million annual revenue. And another important factor is that the training provided by the German middle stand makes a major contribution towards the future of the economy. A major contribution towards the comparatively low level of youth unemployment, we have about 7.5, 7.9%. In Spain, for example, you have 56% youth unemployment. In overall, 83% of all trainees are trained in the middle stand, in the SMEs. So the SMEs form the heart of the country's social market economy and serve as the key engine of growth and employment. I told you this because I wanted to explain the reasons why we in Germany specifically emphasize the SME questions. If you look at Latin American, we find a couple of similarities, but a lot of difference. SMEs are equally a fundamental building block of the productive structure in Latin America, accounting for, as we guess, around 99% of the businesses and employing about around 67% of the employees in the region. However, in comparison, SMEs in Latin America contribute relatively little to GDP, which reflects their low level of productivity. In addition, levels of internationalization of SMEs in Latin America are significantly lower than in Europe and in East Asia. While only around 10% of Latin American SMEs engage in export activities, 40% of European SMEs do so. Therefore, to us, the importance to support private enterprises, to support SMEs in Latin America is one of the keys to a sustainable and healthy development of a country and its society. It also contributes considerably to a much better diversification of wealth and access to goods and services. For us, it is of some importance that all four existing private sector windows of IDB should be part of one effective entity. To achieve a maximum development impact, the IDB's public operations and private activities need to be coordinated in a way that a business-friendly and investment-conducive environment is fostered. This kind of coordination approach requires a far closer cooperation of the public and the private sector landing arms of the IDB group than it has been practiced under the present institutional setup. Despite the numerous efforts undertaken to overcome the coordination challenges. As you all know, Latin America is a continent of mostly middle-income and higher middle-income countries. I would not say at the moment that Latin America is awash with liquidity, but, generally speaking, domestic and foreign sources of investment capital are not short in supply. Argentina excluded, which is a special and totally inadmissible case of its irresponsibility and misbehavior. Latin America has a well-functioning bank banking and financial sector that provided to be astonishingly, astonishingly, astonishingly, astonishingly difficult word for me, sorry, astonishingly crisis resilient during the past economic and financial turbulences. Particularly, larger companies can tap the national and regional capital markets, including through the issuance of corporate bonds as an alternative source of financing. Also of some importance is that IDB is not the continent's sole development bank. This leads immediately to the question, what should, against this very briefly outlined background, what should be IDB's private sector look like? What is IDB's role as an investment financier? The IDB is in terms of financial capacity, a small institution, a small institution. Even under the scenarios geared at maximizing the non-sovereign guaranteed lending, the IDB's groups lending to the private sector represents only a minimal percentage of Latin America's total private sector investment value. Not only for this reason, IDB cannot do everything. The banks resources are to be used for investment expenditures for which alternative sources of finance are not available. The IDB needs to focus on niches in which it can operate with high development effectiveness, development impact, and most important, as we say, additionality. Therefore, we highly recommend a reality check what IDB can realistically finance with the resources likely to be available. The degree of selectivity is a key factor which level of development effectiveness IDB can achieve. As regard to the funding of the private sector operations, I would like to add that IDB should also focus on leveraging its own financial contributions and acting as a catalyst for co-financing and the crowding in of additional resources. We recognize that equity investment is also a key element in this approach. Let me summarize my remarks in specifying a few priorities for IDB private sector engagement as we as I personally see it. First, lending to and investing in companies in countries with less developed financial markets. Second, assistance to micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises with no access to commercial loans, at least not at reasonable rates. Thirdly, supporting companies engaged in sectors such as public infrastructure and agriculture and activities related to green growth, climate change, renewable energy, energy efficiency, and environmental protection. Don't know, fourth, provision of long-term financing in venture capital if otherwise it is unavailable. Fifth, provision of loans denominated in local currencies, in particular to SMEs. Sixth, fostering financial innovation and the development of domestic financial intermediaries through financial lines. And last, development of a counter-cyclical lending and investment pattern as opposed to the currently prevailing pro-cyclical lending pattern. Thank you very much. Thank you very much, Leo. I very appreciate your going into detail on your view of this. I'm quite appreciative and I thank all the panelists, but I thank you in particular, Leo, for those very, very thoughtful remarks. But I heard a number of things from the panelists. I heard some things about the IDB could do a better job. I heard about middle-income countries need a greater say. Barring countries need a greater say. I heard throughout something about what's the role or where its value is, the shorthand in the biz is what's our additionality, which is the fancy term for what's our impact, how are we making, what's our contribution to this, what makes us special. But then I also think, I thought your comments, Leo, in terms of here are some specific areas that in particular, while I have you on the panel, can you, how do you pronounce Schaudenfreude, by the way, since astonishingly is, is it Schaudenfreude, right? Everyone in American English uses Schaudenfreude. Schaudenfreude. That's it. Schaudenfreude. Schaudenfreude. Thank you. Thank you. I was wondering. That bad feeling, you shouldn't have that. No, no, he should never have it exactly. But the, what I do think is when I think about these, when I think about these sort of streams of within the comments, I want me to put to each of you, I thought Leo had a very detailed list that throughout I heard we need to pick, we should pick where we can make a difference, where we ought to add value where we can make, and I think Leo named it listed seven. So let me start with each of the panelists just to reflect on Leo's list of seven, for example. Is this where you would put your, and obviously some folks may not be in a position to say, well, I want to think about this a little bit more, but this is Leo's personal view, but why don't I start with you, Gustavo, you've been in the finance business a long time before you got into the development, before you got into public service. What's your reaction to Leo's suggestion of those seven areas? Well, my answer is I'd like to think about them a little more, but however, there's something that he said, which I think is very important. He put in perspective the size of the lending capacity of the IEB, particularly in the private sector context, in the context of all the private sector financing needs of Latin America and the supply, if you will, of capital that's out there. We provide really a very small amount, and even if we were to double, triple, quadruple, and believe me, we're not gonna get anywhere close to that in connection with this private sector view that's undergoing, it's still gonna have a very minimal impact overall. That's why we have to be very strategic about how we pick and how we choose when to intervene. And I think Leo put his finger on it, is that we should only intervene where there is some kind of a market failure, some imperfection in the private sector that is not making available the capital at the perceived risk levels are so high that we see a worthy activity to engage in, and that's why we wanna step in for demonstration effect, or because, like I said, the capital just isn't there otherwise, and that's where we can have the most impact, I think. So, Maria, you talked about being a catalyst, I think also a little bit what Gustavo was talking about in terms of not supplanting what's already out there, could you talk, what's your reaction to Leo's list? I think it's a very comprehensive list. I tend to agree with it, I would not say that expanding the capacity of the IDV to lend to small and medium enterprises or to micro enterprises is something that would be useless. I think one of the characteristics also of lending to SMEs is that or micro and small enterprises is that you can actually have a very important impact with just even a few thousand dollars. So, really, you do get to develop an important reach when you do the expansion of capital in these institutions. I, with that said, it's also true that the IDV's role, same as in the case of any other multilateral development bank, is not to lend to institutions or to firms that are large and can finance themselves easily, either domestically or internationally. So, there is a balance to be kept. While we cannot cover everything, I also alluded to the fact that there is a very important task in addressing market failures segments of the market in which the private sector is not coming in. Part of it is going to be the IDV going on its own. In some other cases, it's going to come with other development partners. It can be private sector, it can be other multilateral institutions, it can be bilateral funds. Each case is going to be different, but the truth is Latin America and the Caribbean in general and there are many countries in the region which suffer from this. It's a place with a very shallow financial sector. We do need to get in in a significant way and be able to demonstrate that certain types of operations can be done and help articulate this intervention so that others can come later on. So, having capacity to do that I think is and enough resources to do it in a way that it becomes clear that that impact is there and that others can come in after us is I think very important. Kurt, you talked about the new actors, the increased access to capital markets. You talked about the need to understand where to add value. Could you, in relation to your comments and in relation to Leo's comments as well as the other panels, would you just like to respond to that? Do you agree with sort of that? Is that the universe that you would agree to? I could agree in general to Leo's comments and I think the real starting point on what I think I repeated maybe too much in my opening comments is the challenge for the IDB to define its space and define its role in facilitating private sector led growth. And what can the IDB bring to the table and what can it do best? And there's a lot of buzz on the talk about capital and I want to say that it will be wrong to assume that part of the problem of financing private sector led growth in Latin America and the Caribbean is capital. I think in many cases and many instances if a proper diagnostic is done that capital itself or the availability of capital may not necessarily be the problem. The issues may rarely be how to leverage capital or how to access capital or how to make available capital relevant to the financing needs. And many of my colleagues made the point of the large SME sector in Latin America and we should also recognize and talk about the large informal SME sector in Latin America and herein lies an opportunity for the IDB as well. For example, giving us whole knowledge and working with governments and working on the policy side and guiding the kinds of reforms that would allow the formalization of the informal sector and then supporting that with the kind of financing and capital tools and let me just give an example. I just came back from leading a private sector mission of the bank to my own country, Trinidad and Tobago where we had the highest levels of the private sector executives of the bank represented and it was very clear that there was no issue of liquidity and there was no issue of capital within the banking system but that the traditional commercial banking system in my country does not have the risk tools, does not have the guarantee tools, does not have the knowledge tools in knowing how to translate the excess liquidity into financing products to stimulate private sector growth and development. When you have traditional private sector lending that is based on assets to leverage financing, how do you translate that to based on lending for cash flow? How do you unleash capital to facilitate lending for innovative thought? We live in a knowledge growth and knowledge led economy, innovation is going to come through knowledge. Where are the financing products in the region and this is not a Caribbean problem, I think it's a Latin America and Caribbean problem as an example do we have the necessary financing products to finance ideas, to finance innovation where there's no asset or there's no necessary determined cash flow now and I think we need to take the debate and we need to take the discussion out of the narrow focus of only capital or we need to take the debate and discussion of what is the IDB and what are the specific needs that our strengths can meet and where can we be the catalyst and anytime we limit our thoughts that the issue is one thing or the other, I think that is where we begin to confuse what can be done or cannot be done and I think very important for multilateral banks in general is the issue of partnership which was alluded to by many of my colleagues and if you look at the actors within the global market space the participants in development if I'm to pick the NGO sector only I think NGO sector has evolved in the last few years from being advocacy to monitoring and evaluation but to finance as well. The mere fact that we live in a world where we now have impact investment fund means there's a whole blurring of what is traditionally the role of a multilateral development bank in financing development and the role of entrepreneurs in financing development and I think the monopoly of policy and financing policy led growth both in the public sector and private sector that monopoly is being diluted from multilateral development banks and there's a blurring and emerging of that into the private sector and into the NGO sector so we're really seeing a big division of the pie but with our straight lines it's all blending, it's all merging and that's why I said let us not look at it as static the rules are significantly changing we are living in the development world where the rules are changing and we're financing for development as we traditionally think of it is not the way it is evolving and in thinking about the reorganization and the reform of the private sector just to summarize my thoughts we should not limit it to an issue of capital and we should understand the role of the various actors we should understand the impact of the various actors can make we need to admit the shortcomings from a policy side that is tapping private sector led growth in Latin America and the Caribbean I do believe that the IDB given this long experience on the policy side we need to understand this well and we need to be a partner bringing all this together to really find the spaces within which we can have that catalytic effect for the good that we see there's a lot of thoughtful people in the room and I could ask several more questions of the panelists but I'm looking at a number of folks that I know are either at IFC or they've worked in philanthropy or they've worked at AID who are in the audience and as part of sort of this broader conversation I know we think about comparables like the nexus of USAID trade and development agency OPEC, the EXIM Bank in the U.S. context or we look at in the Dutch context you have the Dutch aid agency along with the very interesting development institution FMO you have at the World Bank Group IFC which combines both technical assistance they call it advisory services along with equity investments along with lending and investments and funds in one entity which was a comment that Leo made that perhaps that you know at the same time there's also we've been having a conversation here at CSIS about the fact if money's not the vector if it's about being a catalyst and it's about networks and knowledge networks and providing expertise then maybe it's not necessarily the traditional metric has been how much ODA are we spending or how much money are we pushing out the door what's our volume in a lot of these development finance institutions at IFC if you were an investment officer you were a bigger deal if you were lending more money as opposed to less if you had a bigger bilateral aid budget that was more important and better in this new world if what I'm hearing from the various panelists says that well money may not many is important but the vector of other things it's about being a catalyst it's about having knowledge that maybe perhaps maybe based on Kurt's comments maybe it's not just about what's the size of the amounts of money that you're pushing out though to be financially viable given the current model of a multilateral development bank you need a certain amount of money that you're lending out every year to kind of keep the lights on I'm very happy to call on people I know that so I'm hoping that some of the folks who I'm hoping are going to speak will speak so why don't we open it up and let's see what hands come up otherwise I'll start calling on people okay my friend in the front row here and we'll do this world bank style we'll collect two or three questions if you can identify yourself just in the form of a brief statement or a question my name is Peter Cleves I'm from the Inter-American Development Bank as a consultant for the MIF and also as a foundation official with Avena and the Ford Foundation worked in many of the main objectives now what I've heard on the panel is again beginning with the idea that the money is not the primary resource the IBD has I heard what the attributes that you do have would have to be mobilized one of them is the hurdle rate use money to lower the hurdle rate to reduce the risk in a certain investment for the private sector legitimize an investment because of your presence and your reputation provide monitoring and evaluation support because of your network of offices and then use your links with government better than the private sector in many cases to improve financial markets and regulations and financial institutions the goals of the donors one SMEs, support SMEs employment close the income and quality work on climate control, strength in civil society debt relief, fortify links with the dynamic markets China and India and also continue lending knowing institutions there's the momentum factor to what degree really is there a possibility of making significant changes when you have a lot of interest in maintaining each of the activities that are current present does the do the donors have enough ability to work among themselves to really set out what the real priorities of the organization should be and second can you get the institution actually to abide by it when they all want to do their own things they've been doing all along Peter one or two other questions or comments I'll take one more if not I think Peter this gentleman here my name is Andrew you I'm lead counsel Deutsche Bank for Latin American Caribbean just to give a perspective I guess a private sector perspective and I know that the IDB has been and just to take further this idea of partnership between public and private sector and also what Dr. Croyts and Mr. Arnovat mentioned about that IDB could be very useful to fill in gaps where there is a market failure for example there's possibly been a long history between IDB and the private sector in financing for example in terms of the A and the B loans and certainly seen a lot of transactions where the IDB and other private sector branches of say the World Bank have acted together with multilaterals in partnership I've seen recently though following the financial crisis many more impediments placed on activities of banks primarily in terms of say bank regulatory capital and leverage ratios which has really put a break on activities of banks such as Deutsche and other investment banks in terms of making loans into Latin America I would imagine that in these situations the ability of institutions such as IDB and IFC to partner with the global investment banks would be very welcome and I'm just wondering if there has been if you've seen much dialogue between the IDB and the private sector there's been an increase in the dialogue since the financial crisis so one question on political willingness of shareholders to make some sort of change and thank you Peter for that question I was thinking that myself and then I think the other question is sort of the changing global financial environment I also think of things like Basel III sort of the changes in regulation that have made less financial capital available as well as frankly in this country Dodd-Frank to some extent has impacted things like SME lending capital funds that are available in Latin America that do have sort of maybe perhaps not unintended consequences but perhaps as part of this financial regulatory change financial regulatory environment there is less capital and so perhaps it increases the role for organizations like whether it's the African Development Bank and the African Context I've certainly seen that where there's been less money available from money center banks in Europe for infrastructure financing in Africa and there's a lot more opportunity if you have each of you all would just respond to each of those questions and if we do it economically we'll take one or two more questions from the group so I'll start with you Gustavo Peter's question I agree change management is difficult particularly for an organization that's been around for over 50 years as large as it is but we have a few things I think going in our favor one in connection with the capital increase it wasn't just an agreement that we had on an increase in the capital of the institution but also about important reforms and important priorities so this was an opportunity for the shareholders to come together and identify what kind of a bank do we want to be or modalities how do we want to do what it is that we're trying to accomplish and among those was a recognition that we needed to invest more money in the small and vulnerable economies in the region and also a greater priority for clean energy and renewable energy so for example beginning in 2015 25% of our projects have to be in clean and renewable energy also climate change mitigation those are an important priority identified by the United States working with other shareholders the other thing is that actually a couple of other things I want to mention is that I think all the shareholders recognize that we have to do a better job when it comes to how we're deploying our capital in the private sector so there's a recognition of that I don't think we have to convince too many people of that and how we get there of course is subject to a conversation we're currently having I don't know where we're going to end up it's going to be a multi-year initiative and so I think we have to be patient we have to work I think all of us very hard in good faith to try to improve the operations of the bank in the private sector but I think we're very much committed to doing that and the last thing I want to mention which is the issue of relevance one of the things that I'm particularly proud of is this is the bank because it is owned because the majority of the owners are borrowing countries and they have the greatest mistake in the bank they are the ones who are using the capital and at least under the current management I give them a lot of kudos I think working very closely with the various countries identify the needs clearly identify where the capacity is the bank to meet those needs but really trying to do the best they can to remain relevant and I travel through the region that's one of the things I hear the most about the current management and how the relevance today is greater than I think you know it's ever been and one of the ways what some of you know Kurt mentioned is how we're working with the social entrepreneurs and this is I think I give a lot of kudos to the leadership of the bank that really focuses on this particular area which I think can have a lot of impact going forward okay we'll just go down the line here Leo why don't you respond to those Maria thanks Ben I think the a bit general answer to the different questions is to state I think that private sector activities of a development institution are not valuable as such some people might think so but I don't don't think so they are valuable and they are important because they these activities are used to initiate developing processes so the private sector activities whatever that might be of a development institution like IDB must have a development effect the private sector I always say is not the golden calf where we dance around and praise it for it being a golden calf but we need the private sector engagement to have certain purposes secondly I would say what I mentioned already briefly in my statement the bank cannot cannot be will not be cannot be a competitor to the commercial banks to the commercial sector the commercial lending institutions that role is for certain reasons impossible to play for the IDB because IDB is much too small as I said and IDB has not the capacity and cannot really and should not compete but IDB should use the commercial sector the for example supporting SMEs you cannot do directly of course you need the commercial banks but the commercial banks don't do that very often because they need a security so you have to establish incentives you have to establish what the bank is doing already but to do that more extensively to give guarantees to commercial banks credit lines so they can make use of them then giving that out to SMEs for example and there are many other aspects but for example the training it was mentioned by court I think and by Maria and by one of you people the training not everybody not every SME is a valuable SME guy who is around the corner grilling bratwurst might be of some valuable for the consumers but not really valuable as being productive he or she can develop can develop if he or she gets training if he or she gets access to a limited to a responsible amount of credit but again this has to be thought out and that's best has to be done by let's say commercial banks which are close to the people which know the situation in particular the local situation so and that needs again training training for the people in the commercial banks who are who are who are selected or who are identified to do this job but again you cannot expect from a commercial bank to take this costs you know you take this risk that needs to be secured for example by a credit line or by a grant or what have you of a bank like IDP so not being competitor but using the commercial banks as intermediaries to reach this development the fundamental relevant aims thank you Maria thanks okay one thing I would like to say is that there is a difference between saying that the IDP or any multilaterally in general because or even a domestic development bank needs to act as a catalyzer or resources and saying that the scale at which it operates doesn't matter I think those are the different things and are complementary because right now I think the discussion kind of switched into saying well you know if you're a catalyzer it doesn't matter what size you are the magnitude of your operations and I do think both are complementary are not competing you can do more catalyzing with more resources you can do more operations in more countries at the same time or touch on different segments that are not being attended to so one thing is not against the other anybody's pretending that any multilateral development bank should go and cover all the needs that are there in the region because that's I mean it's impossible not all the multilateral development banks together can do it but I think there is a balance there is another element too which is when you're trying like we're trying now because when you're thinking of strengthening their role that you have on how you interact with the private sector and you try to switch instruments or not to switch but to widen the number of instruments that you have available and you try to do for example more equity that also has a financial aspect of it that side that you need to think of because you are also talking about a financial institution which is the multilateral development bank which is going to engage in different type of operations it's not the same thing in terms of capital requirements to make a loan and to make an equity investment so if you're trying to be engaged into new ways of interacting with the private sector and that also entails doing more equity which is something that for example we're talking about right now at the IDB that also has a minimum requirement of what you have in terms of equity in your balance sheet and that's the solution and there is a minimum that you need to show that you can actually do those operations to have the impact to have the the reach and to make it sustainable financially for the institution itself because you have to think of the two things right so I just wanted to mention that it's not it's true that serving as a catalyzer is important I think that's the role of the development institutions but thinking that you can do that with nothing would also be a little bit far rich. Regarding the political aspect of it I think I think in general there is quite a bit of consensus at the IDB in particular that we need to do the most we can with the resources and that there is some focus that has to be had and there is some need for strategic and medium term planning in terms of where we want to get. With that said I think one of the comparative advantage and here I'm going to go back to the public sector aspect because the fact that we are expanding or strengthening our activities on the private sector doesn't mean that we are abandoning the public sector role and one thing that is important and I alluded a little bit to this when I did my first statement is that the more we deal with middle income countries that have better institutional frameworks and better policy frameworks the best way to engage with the public sector for these kind of developing banks is to engage with, articulate themselves with the public sector national development plans. I mean you do have a policy framework that is dictated by the government and then the IDB comes and has a very good dialogue it has in my opinion the comparative advantage of the IDB is that it knows how to insert itself flexibly in those programs that the governments are having so that requires focus but it also requires some flexibility and some capacity to adapt to whatever these governments are starting to need and the region is changing and is developing different needs and in that case the bank also needs to learn to evolve and to be able to respond to those needs. Thank you. I will start with Peter I will start simply by saying necessity drives change and from what was said if you look at the variety of countries within Latin America and the Caribbean which are members of the Inter-American Development Bank you have heavily indebted countries or countries who cannot borrow anymore or countries who have no access to capital markets with very little space to absorb any more public sector financing. You have larger countries middle income countries who have access to international capital markets so governments can access high levels of financing for public expenditure and you have large bilateral arrangements for financing of public sector projects and infrastructure works so I think by necessity the IDB in dealing with the challenges both of the needs of its membership and for the role that it can continue to play to maintain relevance necessitates a need towards moving towards enhancing its engagement with the private sector and enhancing the way it deals with and its capacity to manage the private sector needs in the region so I think necessity given the drivers of change and the political consensus and willingness that exists will lead the transformation but as you said in any bureaucratic organization change management and transformation is indeed a process and it takes focus to manage that but I remain fairly optimistic that there is the will there is the organizational will there is the political will and I think the driver is really the necessities that exist from both the client point of view and from both the bank remaining relevant point of view I accept that in terms of access to finance I think that Basil Tree and Dot Frank has has shrunk some of the availability to doing business with a traditional sector for which finance has been available and again this with the improved need for financial governance both in the commercial banking sector and in the rural development banking sector forces forces an institution like the American Development Bank to start to think deeper into partnerships to start to think deeper into engaging with and dealing with new and emerging actors to really summarize what I think is the role of the IDB it is to leverage its knowledge it is to leverage its relationship and to echo Maria they must also have the necessary and optimum level of financial capital if the bank is to leverage its high capital of knowledge and its high relationship capital it must have that sufficient and necessary and optimum level of financial capital to have a truly transformative role in development in Latin America and the Caribbean well I think we'll have to leave it at that thank you all and please join me in thanking the panel

My name is Andrea with Foodimentary Adventures in Food. In my household, there's me, my husband, and our adorable two-year-old little boy. On our channel, you'll find simple and tasty dinners using everyday ingredients. Hey guys, so it is super hot in Dallas this week, so I will not be turning on the oven for any reason at all. I'm going to be using up stuff from my freezer in Pantry this week, making, you know, grilling meat or using the stove top but not turning on the oven. As you can see today, it is 108 and then for the rest of the week, you got 109, 109, 109, 102, so it's very, very hot. But I am going to make this orange chicken. It has been in my freezer for a while. It is from H.E.B., which is a grocery store here in Texas, and then I am going to be making this Korean fried rice that Howard and I really like a lot. It does come with peas and carrots, so I always take those out before I make it, and you can either make these. Let's see, this fried rice in the microwave or the pan, and I always pan fried. It tastes much better to me that way. All right, so I'll be back once I put everything together. Okay, so here's our dinner. I made the orange chicken and the air fryer, and of course, as I mentioned, I stir-fried that rice, and then we had some leftover green beans in the fridge. So this is what we are having for dinner tonight, and we will see y'all next time. So for dinner tonight, Howard grilled out some short ribs. It is 107 degrees as I speak. So I went to Fiesta, which is a Latin American grocery store here in Texas. I think it's only in Texas. And in their meat department, they had these marinated short ribs, and I wasn't sure what the marinade was, but we just tasted it, and it's like a fajita seasoning, so it's really good. And with it, I decided to make some black beans and rice. So this is what we are having for dinner tonight, and we will see y'all next time. So I am trying out a new recipe for dinner tonight. It is a, it's called slow cooker pesto mozzarella chicken pasta. Of course, I'll put the recipe in the description box. So in my crock pot, I have almost a pound and a half of chicken thighs. The original recipe calls for chicken breasts, but I prefer cooking with thighs. And then next, and I've salt and peppered it. Next, I'm getting ready to add some pesto mix, and the brand is called Maya, Maya Camus, I think. So it calls for jarred pesto, but I'm using what I have. And so I made two packages of that pesto, which is the equivalent of the jarred sauce that they were asking for. And I'm just pouring the pesto over. And next, the recipe calls for you to squeeze some lemon juice. Howard's not a huge lemon juice span. So I'm not using as much as it calls for. Get those seeds out of there. And next, it asks you to lay some salted butter pats on top of everything. All right. So next it calls for you to cover the crock pot and to let this cook for about five or six hours. I honestly don't see it needing to go for that long, but I will bring you back for next steps. Okay, so it's been about four and a half hours, and I have already shredded up my chicken thighs. And as you can see, got them in here. There seems like a lot of liquid. So I'm not sure I'm a little bit nervous about that. But now it says to add in some grated Parmesan cheese. And it specified the stuff in the green bottle or green jar. So adding that in, giving it a stir. And then the recipe calls for one pound of cooked pasta. I'm actually using half a pound. So I cooked two cups of dry noodles and drain them. Did not rinse them. I just added them in. And I'm just going to give these a good stir. Okay, so that those noodles are sucking up that liquid. So I didn't want to do a pound of pasta because it's really just Howard and I eating it. And a pound would have been a lot. So I usually do a half a pound of pasta. And as you can see, it's fine with this amount of liquid. And then the next thing it says to do is to top it with some shredded mozzarella cheese. I'm just going to sprinkle it on top. And then it says to cover this for 15 minutes to let that cheese melt. Okay, so here is dinner. And it is very good, very tasty. You can see a little bit of oil, butter, I'm not sure what it is, it kind of puddled at the bottom of the plate. But it doesn't taste really oily, has a really good flavor. I would definitely make it again, serving it with a side salad and breadsticks. So these are the breadsticks that I'm using from HED. And then we're going to be using this Olive Garden salad dressing. And then let me show you the rest of it in the crock pot. Like I said, just a little bit of oil, not very much. And I only used, as I mentioned before, a half a pound of pasta. And it seems like there's just enough liquid. So if you use a whole pound, I feel like it might be dry. I'm not sure, of course, but it seems like it would be. But anyway, this was really quick and easy and very tasty. So we will see you all next time. So for dinner tonight, I made wonton soup. I have made this before on our channel. I'll make sure to link that video in the description box so you can check it out. But I love making this soup really easy to make. That is Harrison in the background, just giving you a quick overview of what I used. I drained this can of mushrooms. I used a package of the Eight Flower Hot and Sour Soup Mix. And I have found this at Walmart. I found it at Winco, Asian grocery stores. I had a few of these mini wontons in the freezer I wanted to use. And then I just bought this chili sesame oil on a recent Trader Joe's haul. I'll link that in the box. And I added that and it adds a nice little kick of chili. And it's really good. And the sesame oil of course. I opened the lid and I don't know if you all can see it, but it says Mikasa. So that's who manufactured this. But of course it's Trader Joe's brand. But anyway, this is what we are having for dinner tonight. And we will see y'all next time. So for dinner tonight, we are having Popeyes. We had a new location that opened down the street from us. So we decided to run through the drive-thru. We got the two can dine for $11.99 I think. I know it used to be like $9.99 years ago. But you get five pieces of chicken. So we got two thighs, two legs and a breast. You get two biscuits and you get two sides. We got red beans and rice. And then we got macaroni and cheese. There is an upcharge for mac and cheese. But anyway, this is what we are having for dinner tonight. And we will see y'all next time.

Okay, welcome to class. I hope you guys had a good weekend. Oh, dear. Sorry about this. Ah, okay. Okay, have a couple of announcements. So, first of all, oh, dear, this is not good. Sorry about this. Okay, let's try this one. Okay, I'm not touching it. Okay, I'm assigning chapter 26 today and that will be due on Thursday in two days and then test number two is next week and that will be covering chapters. Oh, man. Okay, you know what, that's it. I'm giving up on PowerPoint. I may just have to use YouTube. I know that YouTube has caused me all kinds of trouble in the past, but I think I don't have a choice here. So, let's just see if this will work here. Ah, there we go. Hello, I have a couple of announcements before class. So, first of all, your chapter 25 homework was due. Oh, sorry. I just want you to be more towards the center. Go ahead. As I was saying, your chapter 25 homework was due. Okay. All right, I'm giving up on this, too. No, I can still do it. No, I can not. It's not any good. Sometimes you just have to do things yourself. Okay, so as I was saying, chapter 25. I'm still here, you know. Wait, what? I said I'm still here. I can still do the announcements. That last assignment is due Thursday. And don't forget to tell them about the test next week. Okay, fine. You can do the announcements, I guess. And it's the season of Christmas, so maybe in the spirit of cooperation, you and I can do it together. No, I mean, yes. You know what? I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. Okay, go ahead. Chapter 26 is due on Thursday, and that's the last homework on Calculus. And next week is chapter 4. And you can take that Tuesday at 12.30. Or Thursday at 12.30. Either way is fine with us. So it's up to you. You can make the choice, just show up one of those things. Finally, there are two makeup quizzes. And those are on Canvas. And those will be due next week on Thursday. Okay, that wasn't so bad. See, that wasn't so bad. Okay, well, hey, good job there. Hey, would you allow me to stick around and teach the whole class with me? No, I'm good. I'll let you take over now. Okay, well, I appreciate that, so, yeah. Oh. I forgot, I wanted to make sure I wish everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Goodbye. Okay, well, I'll talk to you later. Okay, so, you know what, there are some people who bring Christmas cheer and joy and happiness wherever they go. And then there are some people who bring joy and happiness whenever they go. What, I can still hear you. That's not even funny. Oh, I thought it was kind of funny. Okay, thank you very much.

Photochemistry: UNIZOR.COM - Physics4Teens - Waves
UNIZOR.COM - Physics through a Looking Glass of Mathematician Notes to a video lecture on http://www.unizor.com Photochemistry Photochemistry is so important that we can authoritatively say that, if not for photochemistry, there would be no life on Earth. After such a dramatic statement, let's get into the real science. Light is a source of energy in terms of individual photons absorbed by material. These photons excite material's electrons. This is the beginning and a necessary condition for subsequent chemical reactions. The chemical reactions caused by this process of absorbing photons of light is photochemical reaction. The one of the most important such photochemical reaction is photosynthesis - a process that is at the heart of everything that grows on Earth. Nutrients a tree gets from the ground are components of this chemical reaction, but without light these components will not significantly interact with each other to produce new leaves and branches. Light supplies the energy needed for this reaction, and not just any light. Visible light spectrum is necessary for photosynthesis. Some other sources of energy will not do. Not heating, nor some static electric field or mechanical oscillations. Different photochemical reactions need different light to trigger them. Photosynthesis is an extremely complex photochemical reactions that produce some live materials, like leaves on a tree, from simple minerals the tree receives from the ground, carbon dioxide from the air and plain water. We still are not in possession of real details of this process, it's one of the mysteries of Life. Here are some other examples of photochemical reactions. Somehow the Vitamin D is formed in a human body, when sunlight falls on a skin. Plastic degrades under sun light, its molecules break down into smaller components and it loosens its physical qualities, like translucence. Our vision is a photochemical reaction. Solar cells, where light is converted into electricity, accomplish this via photochemical reactions. Types of Photochemical Reactions (from Wikipedia Photochemistry) with h standing for Planck's constant, f - for light frequency, A and B are two substances getting into chemical reaction, when the photons are falling on them. Photo-dissociation: AB + h·f → A + B Photo-rearrangements: A + h·f → B Photo-addition: A + B + h·f → AB + C Photo-substitution: A + BC + h·f → AB + C Photo-redox: A + B + h·f → A− + B+ All the above reactions require the presence of photons (referenced as h·f above) to actually happen.

Hi, I'm Zor. Welcome to In user education. This lecture continues my few series of lectures actually about light. In this particular case we are talking about photochemistry, which basically is a combination of light and electromagnetic oscillations and chemistry and how this electromagnetic oscillation can affect the chemistry. This lecture is part of the course called Physics 14's presented at Unisor.com. I do suggest you to watch this lecture and every other lecture from the website rather than from any other source you might actually find something like YouTube because this is a course which means there is a menu, it's a hierarchical menu, this lecture is part of certain chapter, chapter is part of the part of the course and lectures are very much depend on each other. So there is also math 14's course on Unisor.com which I consider to be a prerequisite to this course. It's a solid math course for high school and maybe a little upper, maybe first year of college, but that's what you need to study physics seriously. Now the website is totally free, you don't even have to sign in if you don't want to. Now there is certain functionality of the website which depends on the sign in name, but again it's totally free, there are no advertisements, no financial strings attached, no monetization, so just study and gain some knowledge. Okay, now let's talk about photochemistry. First of all, we are talking about light and how light affects the chemical reaction. Well, let me start with a very dramatic statement. If not for photo chemistry, there would be no life on earth because everything which grows around us in the process of growing all these trees and grass and whatever we have, they absorb light and it actually affects the chemical reaction inside. It's a photosynthesis, it's cold. That's how molecules are built, that's how trees are growing, that's how wheat is growing, I mean everything. Now there is also effect on human bodies. I mean there were cases when people grew up without sun and obviously their development was significantly depleted. So sun is necessary and basically it confirms that photochemistry is extremely important for life on earth. So number one, I wanted to exemplify this particular photochemistry kind of relationship in something which is called photosynthesis, that's how everything grows. Now I didn't mention it before but this is one of the few lectures where we will have no formulas. Very rare occasion and it will probably be a very short lecture too. I'll just exemplify certain photo reaction, photochemistry reactions and again photosynthesis one of those. What else? What else is generation of vitamin G inside of our body when our skin is exposed to sun? It's a clear example of photochemistry. Now to tell the truth I don't think we understand this process. I mean we know what's happening but to properly explain this generation of vitamin D for example or photosynthesis I don't think we have a clear explanation of how it actually happens because if we did we might have been able to basically replicate it. We cannot. We cannot produce life generally speaking whatever we think about life whether it's a life kind of animated kind of life or planned or something we don't. We only can just use whatever we already have like we can take a branch of a tree and grow into a new tree but that's not what I'm talking about to understand how the process is made down to nitty gritty. It means we can replicate it completely and we cannot. So whoever created this life really did a very good job. Okay what else as an example? Okay we have used lots of plastic and we know that plastic degrades with the time. Why? This is example of photochemistry. Sunlight when it actually directed onto plastic. Gradually you see plastic contains very long molecules polymers whatever and under the sun there are certain chemical reaction which actually breaks a long molecule into smaller pieces. That's photochemistry and that's what actually happening with plastic when it degrades under the sun. You see something simpler than plastic something like metal for example it's a very short molecule couple of elements and that's it but plastics are very long molecules containing like carbon and nitrogen or something else. Now these long molecules are breaking under the sun. Now I promised not to have any formulas in this lecture. I will not have the real formulas but I will use certain symbolics to basically explain how the photochemical reaction can happen a little later when I will finish with all the examples I have almost finished. What else? Okay our eye we see things now what does it mean that we see things? Well electromagnetic oscillations light visible spectrum of life of light comes into the eye and it causes chemical reaction. Chemical reaction in turn excites the nerves inside the retina somewhere in the eye and these signals are going into brain. So that's basically how we see things and again right in the middle of this is a chemical reaction inside the eye which basically happens in response to light coming through our pupil and based on different picture whatever we see different parts of the retina are activated and based on different frequency of light the activation has different degrees because there is different energy carrying which is carried by the light so it actually causes different chemical reaction in different places of our retina. All these signals are going into brain and that's how we see things and the last which I have in my list I mean there are many many different photochemical examples solar cells again under the sun there is something happening in like probably it's a semiconductor whatever is underneath of the transparent covering and something happens it's a photochemical reaction and as a result it produces electricity converging basically the energy of sun which is carried by electromagnetic oscillations of course waves into certain other form of energy in this case electricity. Certain amount of energy is lost but certain amount of energy is still kind of used. Okay now I wanted to talk about different it's a schematic representation of these chemical reactions how many different types of chemical reaction are possible. So I will use components which participate in the chemical reaction just with letters a b c so one of the first things is a b plus plus light now I have already mentioned a couple of times that light carries energy now before like at the end of 19th century physicists were thinking about light energy as infinitely dividable and it's like flowing well in a way like waves on the sea so it's a wave theory of light and energy can be any basically it all depends on amplitude and frequency. In 1905 Einstein published an article which was actually considered to be true or at least true at that particular time and hours not until 1922 if I'm not mistaken like 17 years later people were very much inclined to the wave theory of light because it explains all these diffraction interference etc etc however photoelectricity effect which I have addressed in the previous lectures was not explained using pure wave theory because always specific frequency was able to kick electrons out of some metal plate so Einstein came up with certain theory that energy which is carried by oscillations electromagnetic oscillations cannot be infinitely divisible there is a minimum which depends on the frequency and the amount of energy is equal to Planck constant times frequency of light. Now Planck constant came from Max Planck was like 10 years before Einstein was researching how heated objects emit the electromagnetic oscillations like for instance you heat piece of metal and it's like red hot or even white hot so all these colors are basically emitting of electromagnetic oscillations it's light right so Planck was researching that and he actually came to this we call it right now quantization of energy means that energy can only be emitted or absorbed in certain chunks called quanta so it's a plural singular quantum so right now we are talking about this as a quantum of energy another word for this is photon which everybody heard so this is a photo this is basically light energy so what happens if something which contains two different elements consumes certain amount of energy well one of the reaction which can happen is this these two elements are separated so this is one type of photochemistry photochemical reaction so this chemical reaction a b to a plus b this is something like one molecule which contains two elements and these are two elements separately or a bigger molecule is separated into two smaller molecules like degradation of plastic under the sun so this is one type of photochemical reaction another type when you have certain molecule or element under the sun it just converts to another one another type of chemical reaction now the third one plus b plus h f which means you have two separate elements and energy of light it can convert to you combine these two elements and maybe there is something left over in some way now these are most formulas don't take me wrong the i promise this lecture not to have any formulas these are most formulas i'm just trying to graphically explain what i was just talking about chemical reactions with all kinds of different chemical reactions are possible based on this another a plus b c plus h f so there is a region regrouping a b plus c so b being connected to c now it's connected to a under the influence of light and another one i have two separate elements i added some energy and as a result i still have two separate elements but one would be positively and another would be negatively charged so basically there is a separation of electrons regrouping of electrons from one to another for that regrouping we need some energy and that's the energy so all these are regrouping of atoms and electrons between different elements or molecules and it's all done based on energy supplied by light okay this is basically a very short lecture again no formulas these are not formulas and i was just trying to explain how light actually affects the chemical reaction that's it probably next lecture we'll have formula i will try to explain basically a little bit more in more details how exactly these electrons are jumping from one place to another under the influence of light and how they can emit light if they're jumping into proper place all right that's it for today i suggested to read nap notes for this lecture basically it's exactly the same which i was just talking about my big deal but notes are on unison.com you go to physics 14 course choose the part which is called waves and then if you open the next page whatever comes up as a menu you will have photochemistry as a topic it's a very short topic so just you know familiarize yourself with it that's it for today thank you very much and good luck

It's difficult for me to know what to say about Hal's moving castle. I saw this film when it was originally released in theaters here in the States, and I remember thinking it was unremarkable. Although I thought it was more charming than Mononoke and Spirited Away, which had just preceded it, I felt like it was more of a return to Miyazaki's more charming Totoro and Nausica style of films. Other than that, I didn't remember anything about it at all, and the reason I didn't remember anything is because there's really nothing much worth remembering in this film. I left it feeling like I'd seen nothing interesting, nothing exciting. At least in Spirited Away, as much as I disliked that film, there were flashes of Miyazaki's brilliance in that film. Hal's moving castle doesn't have any of those. The characters aren't interesting. You don't feel any real connection to them. They don't have any real deep connection to their own families. I just wasn't interested in it at all. The audience seemed to enjoy it quite a bit. There were people laughing and clapping along. I didn't feel that way. Please remember to press that like button. It helps my videos get seen. And then subscribe so you can come back next time. I do science fiction book, TV, and movie reviews all the time. And please consider becoming a patron.

Hello, I'm Didier Stavens, a senior handler with the InternetStormCenter. Now in this video we are going to look for the analysis of a PDF document that has been created with OpenOffice or LibreOffice. So I run PDFID. This is a document, helloworld.pdf. And let's use option N to only see everything that is not zero. So and there is nothing special about this document. The only thing that stands out here is the open action. Open action is often used in malicious PDF documents, for example, to start the JavaScript upon opening or to visit the URL upon opening. Now LibreOffice and OpenOffice will also include an open action when you create a PDF using those tools, those word processors. But it's done for another purpose and we will look at this. So you can also run PDFParser, option A for the statistics. And if you suspect that it might contain stream objects, say OBGSTM, you use option O, uppercase O, to look inside those objects. And here helloworld, okay, and indeed here we see open action. And the open action is in object 12. So with PDFParser I select object 12. And here you see the open action. And then you see this reference. So this reference is an explicit destination. This is X, Y, Z, X and I position and the zoom. So we just accept the default positions and a normal zoom for this object. And this should be a page, object one, this should be a page. So let's check object one. And indeed this is the page. So that open action is an explicit destination added by LibreOffice and OpenOffice. So that's when the PDF is opened that the first place is actually displayed first with a zoom so that you can read that page. Now if you want to make sure you can look at the properties. So in the trailer we have an info entry that's object 13. And here we have object 13 where we see the creator and the producer. This is an hexadecimal string. And you see that it starts with F, E, F, F. So that is the byte order mark that you can find in Unicode. And here you have actually the Unicode string and the byte order mark indicates that the zero goes first and then you have the value for a normal ASCII in Unicode. We can decode this with base 64. So I'm going to grab for F, E, F, F. And now I only have those two hexadecimal strings. And I pipe this into base 64 dump. And the encoding is hexadecimal. And then you can see here for the two encodings, this one is writer and this one is LibreOff. If I select four and do an ASCII dump, you can see LibreOffice 6.2. I can also dump this as Unicode, UTF-16. And then here you can see the complete string readable LibreOffice 6.2. So if you get an open action in a PDF document and only that, look at it and check if it is actually an explicit destination. If it is an explicit destination, then that open action itself is not malicious. Its only purpose is to display the first page. And that is something that is done automatically by LibreOffice and OpenOffice when you create a PDF from that write application.

10 Misleading Things About College #viral #fyp #education #college #facts #factsvideo
10 Misleading Things About College 1. College guarantees a job: While obtaining a degree can increase your job prospects, it does not guarantee a job. It's important to gain relevant experience, network, and market yourself effectively to secure employment. 2. College is the only path to success: Success can be achieved through many different avenues, including trade schools, entrepreneurship, or starting a career right after high school. 3. A higher tuition fee means a better education: High tuition fees do not always equate to a better education. Many factors can contribute to the quality of education, including faculty, resources, and curriculum. 4. College is only for the academically gifted: College is for anyone who is willing to put in the effort and work hard. There are many resources available to help students succeed academically. 5. College is only for young people: College is for people of all ages. Many adults return to college to gain new skills or switch careers. 6. College is all about partying and socializing: While college can be a fun and exciting time, it's important to remember that the main purpose of college is to obtain an education. 7. Graduating from college means you have all the knowledge you need: College provides a foundation of knowledge, but it's important to continue learning and growing throughout your life. 8. The major you choose will determine your entire career: While your major can influence your career path, it's not set in stone. Many people switch careers or find employment in fields unrelated to their major. 9. Online education is inferior to traditional classroom education: Online education can be just as effective as traditional classroom education, and in some cases, it can be more convenient and flexible. 10. College debt is not a big deal: College debt can have a significant impact on a person's financial well-being. It's important to carefully consider the cost of college and explore all options for financing education. #viral #fyp #education #college #facts #factsvideo

10 misleading things about college. 1. Education ensures a job. While a degree can improve your career prospects, it does not guarantee a job. To acquire employment, it is critical to gain appropriate experience, network, and market yourself successfully. 2. College is the only way to success. There are other paths to success, including trade schools, entrepreneurship, and starting a career directly after high school. 3. A higher tuition charge equates to a better education. A greater tuition fee does not always imply a better education. Faculty, resources, and curriculum are all aspects that can influence educational quality. 4. College is solely for the academically gifted. College is for anyone who is ready to work hard and put in the effort. There are numerous resources available to assist kids in achieving academic success. 5. College is only for teenagers. College is open to people of all ages. Many adults go back to college to learn new skills or change occupations. 6. College is all about partying and socializing. While college can be a fun and exciting time, it's vital to remember that the main aim of college is to receive an education. 7. Graduating from college means you have all the knowledge you need. While college provides a foundation for knowledge, it is critical to continue learning and improving throughout your life. 8. Your major will determine your entire career. While your major will have an impact on your career path, it is not set in stone. Many people change occupations or work in fields unrelated to their major. 9. Internet education is inferior to traditional classroom education. While online education can be equally as successful as traditional classroom education, it can also be more convenient and flexible in some situations. 10. Student debt is not a huge deal. Student debt can have a substantial influence on a person's financial well-being. It is critical to thoroughly assess the expense of college and to investigate all educational funding possibilities.

So in order to turn our set of cosets into a real group, we have to introduce one more important concept which is that of a normal subgroup. And we can view this as the following. Our goal is to fail to produce a group and see what we have to do in order to succeed. So to recap our cosets, 0, 1 and so on and so forth up to n minus 1 of nc, they do actually form a group when we define the sum of the cosets by the sum of the coset representatives. And the question at hand is can we do this for other groups? And so if we look at our process, what we did is we started out by finding a subgroup of h. We found the cosets, we defined a binary operation on the cosets, we proved that this binary operation was well defined, and then we verified that our group properties actually held. So we often learn more when we fail to do something than when we succeed, so let's see if we can make this process of producing a group crash. So let's go step by step. Form a subgroup, well, that seems to be pretty error-proof. It seems like we can always find subgroups. So we're probably not going to crash at that point. We can always find cosets. Once you have a subgroup, you can always find the cosets. So again, we're not likely to cause that process to crash at this step. How about that coset multiplication? So given two cosets where I'm going to actually start writing them in the form that we use for cosets a, h, b, h. Well, if I want to multiply these two cosets together, I can always define this in terms of what I do to the elements of the group that produce the coset. And again here we're distinguishing between this symbol which indicates the operation on the cosets and this symbol which indicates the operation in the group. And I can always define coset multiplication that way. So that doesn't seem like that's going to cause us to crash. And after that we proved the operation was well-defined and this is where we might run into a point of failure. No problem, no problem, no problem. This is the first place we may actually run into problems. So the first point of failure might be that our coset multiplication is not well-defined. So let's see if we can investigate and see when this might happen. So let g be a group with binary operation plus and let h be a subgroup. We'll define our coset multiplication. If I take two cosets and try to multiply them, what I'm going to do is I'm going to take the group elements that produce the cosets and apply the group operation to them. And in order for coset multiplication to be well-defined it's necessary that whenever I have two cosets equal that the results of the coset multiplication are going to be equal. Now as long as we remember that coset operation is different from the group operation we actually don't need these operator symbols. We can just drop them out so instead of a h coset times b h equals a group plus b h. I can just write a h b h equals a b h and a prime b h and so on. But it's important to remember that this is a group operation, this is the coset operation and they are different. And again our goal is to break this so that we see what we actually need to ensure. And so that means we want to make sure that coset multiplication is not well-defined, that I should be able to take two identical cosets but get a different product when I use the representatives that are different. So now that we know how we can fail to produce a group let's see how we can avoid it. So I have some subgroup h and I have cosets a h b h and so on. And I'm going to let a prime h and a h b be the same coset. And I know that a prime has to be a h k so that's one of our coset lemmas. And if you don't remember that you should prove it. And I want to make sure that a prime b h is the same as a b h because these two cosets are the same. I want to make sure the product of these two cosets is the same as the product of these two cosets. So I'll start with what I want, product equals product and we'll work our way back. So again if two cosets are equal I know the thing that generates the coset has to be the element of the other coset. Which means that this has to be a b times something. Now I know that a prime equals a h k so I can drop that in h k b equals a b h j. And so now I have this and because this is a group I can multiply by the inverse of a that drops out h k b equals b h j. And this seems to be a good place to start. If I have this then I get this. So it seems that coset multiplication will be well defined provided that for any b I can satisfy this relation h k b equals b h j. Well that's a little complicated because I don't know what h k and h j are. On the other hand I'm not really concerned with what they are I just need to know that they exist. So we could simply require that such values must exist and here's the catch for any value of b in the groups. These things have to exist regardless of what b actually is. And the easiest way we can do that is to just require that b h and h b, this left coset and the corresponding right coset, we can require that those have to be the same thing. And that seems to be the requirement so we now have the following definition. Let h be any subgroup of g. We say that h is a normal subgroup if for any element of g the left and right cosets are the same. Now it should be easy to prove the following which is to say you should actually try and prove them yourself. All subgroups of an abelian group are normal and likewise if h is a normal subgroup then h and its cosets form a group under coset multiplication. Now this particular group because again this coset formation is a lot like finding the quotient g divided by h, we call that the factor group or the quotient group. Well we're in an interesting position now. If a subgroup h of g is normal we can form the factor group g over h. We say that normality is a sufficient condition. If we have it we can guarantee the existence of the factor group. But a mathematician might ask can we make do with less? I know we can get this if we have a normal subgroup. Can we do anything like this if we don't have a normal subgroup? And so we're looking for a weaker condition. Well let's see if we actually need normality. Since every subgroup of an abelian group is normal we have to consider the non-abelian groups and so the simplest one we know of is p3 and so is coset multiplication well defined? Well let's find a non-normal subgroup and after some effort we find this one consisting of e and the transposition ab. Turns out that's not normal. And it has cosets abc times s and acv times s. So here's the cosets and since s itself is eab our group p3 has been partitioned into one, two, three cosets. So let's see what happens. We'll try coset multiplication and let's take the product of these two, this with itself. And so our definition of coset multiplication will multiply the representatives abc times acb and that gives us the set s once again. On the other hand in this set abcs is this element ac and I can use any element of a coset as a representative. So abcs is the same as acs and likewise in acbs is this element bc and I can use that as my coset representative. And so this product and this product these are the same cosets but when I do the product I get ac times vs and so what that's going to give me is acbs and these are different and so that says that my coset multiplication is not well-defined if my subgroup is not normal. And if I put that together what that tells us is that normality is enough for the formation of factor groups it's also necessary and we say that normality is a necessary and sufficient condition it is the weakest possible condition that will allow us to form a factor group.

that this world is backwards and upside down. So we have things like, I would say, we call industrialized nations, what the world calls civilized nations, and then we have cultures like the Aborigines over there in Australia. In many cases, it's very telepathic. What the world would judge as very primitive. But again, since everything is backwards and upside down, or this book, and the series of life, I mean you had in Europe a group of beings that would sit still in the silence and heal the world through their nurturing stillness. Now, my journey has taken me to all these different countries, and the sneaky thing about the ego is that the ego invents a lot of rules and regulations and rituals in this world that are designed to minimize fear. Why do we have traffic signals? Why do we have prisons? Why do we have regulations and judges and so forth? It's to hold down fear. In other words, people, the belief is if we didn't have all these rules, the world would really be chaos. You think it's chaos now without some rules and structures. But what I've noticed is I've traveled around the world, is I've actually gone into some cultures in South America where they don't have such rules and regulations. For example, in Buenos Aires, it's a city of over 15 million people. 15 million, more than that, and they don't have stop signs. No stop signs. No stop signs in Buenos Aires. Now, I imagine practically speaking, if you were living in a city of 15 million people, with how many intersections? Millions of intersections and no stop signs. Now, what does this do? Well, what you would have to do is you would soon have to be what? Very telepathic. If you were a cab driver. And imagine down there, because the economy has collapsed, they didn't hold their currency contingent with the dollar and with other currencies, so their whole economy completely collapsed. And doctors and lawyers and teachers and professionals had to take up jobs like cab drivers. But it actually was an advance in their career to go from doctor to cab driver. Because you have to be telepathic in that place and you have to tune into the intuition. You see how backwards it is? And the cab driver, I had one cab driver who was so happy and peaceful that I was doing the Course in Miracles gathering. His name was Juan. I said to Juan, would you come in and speak at the Course in Miracles gathering? I asked the cab driver to come in and speak. And he said, yes, I would be glad. And he went in and he was very calm. He called it palatable of detachment the cab driver did. Now, what I'm saying is when we talk about civilizations and rules and regulations, it's kind of like the same topic of insurance, that you have to start to become more and more intuitive and get in touch with divine laws in your mind. And to do that, you will have to release these other ones. We've all been raised with the laws of nutrition, the laws of medicine, the laws of economics. Some of them, we know these laws like the back of our hands. We can tell you all about the body and nutrition and this and that. You know what? It's not going to get you into the kingdom of heaven. Because guess who made all these laws up? The ego. The ego made them all up. What's going to get you out of it is your intuition. Because 2,000 years ago Jesus said it's not what you put in your mouth that defiles. He was beginning to undo the laws of nutrition 2,000 years ago. It's your thoughts. If you're thinking without grievances and judgments, that's where your health starts with mental health. And you know what he says in the Course? He says all illness is mental illness. So if you follow him what he's saying is your health starts and ends with your thinking. It starts and ends. So all I've done in my life is I've been very honest. And I started to question all those laws of nutrition, of economics, of medicine. Exercise. I was trained in the laws of exercise. What happens if you don't exercise? What happens to muscles? If you don't exercise? We're told they waste away. We're told. But I find I had been a professional tennis instructor. I went to the gym. I did cardiovascular fitness and this and this. I'll tell you right now what's for me to turn around is to shift in my thinking. You know I had to learn even when I was going to the gymnasium to have holy encounters and to stand to perceive my brother as myself. Instead of focusing on their body, I had to learn a different way. Solid. Solid. Solid. Yes. What if your body is completely broken? Take my free cross. Take my free cross. Take my brother. Where your body has completely a problem that seemingly can't be fixed. What do you do with that? If you want to be able to get up and walk again or whatever. Is that still up here? That's where you stick in. You would start and you would end with mind training. In other words, it doesn't matter whether you seem to be in a wheelchair or not in a wheelchair, your mind goes with you wherever you go. What you could say is your mind training is something, when we talk about releasing your mind from judgments, I could tell you so many stories. I'll tell you one story of meeting a man in Argentina who was a paraplegic. I was meeting with a psychiatrist in Argentina and he finally, we were having lunch and he said, David would you like to meet my teacher? I said yes, take me to your teacher. We went down by this big river and there was a man who was about 26 years old sitting in a wheelchair and the psychiatrist who was probably about 55, 60, a very famous psychiatrist down there introduced the man in the wheelchair and said, here is my teacher. He has taught me more about life and love and forgiveness than anyone that I've ever met. Then I sat down and the man who was in the wheelchair and I sat there and we gazed at each other and I said to him, tell me your story. Tell me your story, you seem very happy. He said that he had been able to walk and he was able to walk and move around but when he was about 2001 he was diagnosed with a tumor on his spine and he was told that he would have to go in for an operation that was very risky and that he may not walk after the operation so he went under anesthesia on September 11th of 2001 and he went under anesthesia which would have been in the early morning hours of the United States and he went under anesthesia and while he was under anesthesia they operated on the tumor and when he woke up he had no use of his legs and he was in such a state of ecstasy and such a state of oneness and happiness that the doctors and nurses tried to tell him while you were under anesthesia terrible, terrible tragedy has occurred in the United States terrible tragedy and he could not comprehend what they were trying to tell him he told me from his wheelchair that he went through that experience when he was under anesthesia where it seemed like his ego was operated on instead of the tumor he said, I don't know what happened whether I was in a deep state of prayer or whatever but he woke up and he said his personality self his pride, his jealousy, his envy and everything had been lifted and he woke up in a state of ecstasy and his legs didn't work so this is quite an interesting terrible because he ended up becoming a teacher to many people in Buenos Aires it would come to him for spiritual training and counseling and yet his spiritual career didn't actually begin until he seemed to lose his life now, again, if everything is backwards and upside down in this world people ask me all the time about teaching and I say we really don't teach with our words we're used to thinking about that we teach with our attitude it's our attitude that is the teacher this young man, you know, people would say well, at least he could walk before he had this experience I say, what do you mean? At least he could walk his attitude is what's doing the teaching

So you want to properly attach your 3D model to your skeleton but you don't even know what the word weight painting means. Not a problem, in about 3 minutes you'll understand everything you need to know to weight paint properly. Alright, let's do this. If you followed the last tutorial you should end up right here. Now, while in object mode, select your body and click on the wrench and then check preserve volume. This will help your joints bend born naturally. Then, go to weight paint mode. In the settings tab, check X mirror. This just means that when you paint one side of the body it automatically paints the other side as well. Now, here is the important part. In weight paint mode under brush, make sure you check auto normalize. Do not forget to do this. Think of weight painting like bone territory. Red territory means the bone owns 100% of that location. Blue territory means that bone has no business there. See how when I select the head, the face turns red. This just means that the face belongs to the head. So when the head moves, all the red points will follow it 100%. Yellow points follow 75% and green points follow 50%. Now, if you did not auto normalize, look what happens. If I give a new bone territory that already belongs to another bone, you see that? The face thinks that it belongs to two different places now. Which means that these points won't know where to go. So they'll just try to average between the two locations. But with auto normalizing, if you assign territory to a new bone, it will automatically subtract that territory from other bones. With auto normalizing, your points understand how to share based on their colors instead of overriding each other. So do not forget to check this box. If you forget, you're going to have to do some crazy vertex group cleaning madness to fix it later. And I'm not going to be able to help you because I don't know how to do that stuff. So just try and stick with the program. Lastly, you're going to want to set up your brush. Alright, if this is your first time, listen carefully. You are only going to use two brushes. Add and subtract. Weight is how powerful you mark the territory. 0 means 0% or blue. 1 means 100% or red. Strength means how many clicks it takes to reach your weight. So if we set weight to 1 and then we set strength to 1, now if we click on a point with the middle of the brush, it will claim that point red. But if we click using the outside of the brush, it will be weaker. You can use this to paint different amounts of detail without changing your settings. Now if you change the strength to 0.5 or 50%, it will now take two clicks to reach red territory instead of one. And if you were to change strength again to 0.3 or 30%, it would take three clicks to reach red territory instead. So generally I always have weight set to 1 and I only change strength when adjusting for different amounts of territory. But that's just how I do it. Feel free to change these settings to whatever suits your needs the most. And that's it, you're done. So that covers all the weight painting tools that you will need to know. Now we are ready to begin weight painting our model and if you join me next video, we will paint our rig in detail for smoother joint bending. If you enjoyed this video, please don't forget to like and subscribe. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.

Amir Garrett's on the mound to start the seventh inning. He's got a huge lead, and this breakdown is brought to you by my good friends over at Shady Rays. They're actually going to open up the inning with a nice fastball. Outside fastball, strike one. Now he's like, let's go on that same line with the slider, makes the pitch, doesn't get the call, puts it in his back pocket, remembers it for later, loved the way the slider felt, though. So throws another one, swing and miss, right over it. One and two is the count. Amir's looking good, feeling great as far as we can tell. I mean, a couple nice pitches so far. One, two, back to the slider. Lot of plate, things lucky that one got fouled off or maybe it's by design and he knew it was going to get fouled off. Three sliders in a row. What are you going to do now? He's starting to breathe a little heavier. Maybe he's not feeling good, maybe something's up. We don't know. We're not in his head. Next pitch, slider for the swing and miss. And now he goes back to the first slider through and he gets the call and now a lot happens. He turns around to walk back to the mound after the strikeout. It was dirty, he's feeling gross about it. Ampire turns his head to the dugout, takes off his mask because the white socks are chirping him. He says, you, that's one. All right, be cool. And Amir, he's going to drop down. He's not feeling good. Meanwhile, the Amp, he's still talking the dugout. You, directed at you. Yeah, and Amir's not feeling hot at all. Not at all. It turns out Ben and Tendi, he was a royal last year. Maybe he's distracting the umpire from noticing Amir and Amir's not feeling good at all. And Ben, he says, fucking bullshit and you know it, you. Nobody asked you. Yeah. Yeah, and he tosses him out. He doesn't even realize the pitchers down on the mound not feeling well at all. He doesn't care about it at all. He just wants them to get out of the game. Now the manager of the white socks is going to come out and he's going to start arguing because one of his guys got a check. He's like, wait, hold up, what's going on out there? Wait, wait, wait. Oh, is he hurt? Is he okay? What's going on out there? He gets totally lost in and he's like, oh, oh, I don't care anymore. Seems like that guy's hurt and I didn't care to start. Now Amir thinks he can get up. This is big. He's like, I'm good. I think he stood up too fast though. Guys jogging out. And now this guy comes up. He wants to get in his face like, hey, be honest with me. How are you feeling? I'm a doctor. Maybe that's what that guy, and Amir's like, dude, you better back up. Kind of pushes him like, I wouldn't get too close to me right now. I was like, all right. I just thought maybe you'd want this towel and then the second guy comes with a towel and then you can see his right hand again, pushing the guy's belly and he's like, dude, get away from me. And now if you don't like looking at throw up, I'd say, stop watching the screen. Oh, shit. One last attempt there. See, with his right arm. Amir's just, he's just, dude, I don't want to throw up on you. And three times now he's like, don't get close. This guy keeps getting closer. Well, oh yeah. So that was the throw up almost on that guy's shoes. He's like, hey, why don't you hold my towel too? So now this guy's got two towels. He's like, oh, I shouldn't look. Nope, nope. Yeah, I do want to look. I'll give in. I do want to check this out. It is gross. He's got a nice tight grip on his pants. I don't know if they teach that in school, where guys puke and grab his pants. I was never taught that. Oh, and another towel gets added to the mix. Look, this guy comes, hey, I don't know if you guys have enough towels, but I've got you this towel. And they're like, dude, we have so many towels. We have three towels. He's got a lot of towels to choose from. If he wants to choose from towels, and he does, he chooses the one that the guy who held his pants up originally had. So he wins the towel off, but kind of he gave it to the other guy. And these old men are like, what happened? What's going on? And maybe he threw up. We gotta bring the new pitcher and they gotta let him know, like, all right, they're coming in, you got no runners on, one out. The mound might smell like puke, just get after it. Coach comes out, he's like, don't look at it, fuck. I gotta look at it. I gotta take this in and see what it's all about. And if you go back to the pitches that they didn't like the umpire, because one he said ball and the next he said strike, well, look at that. They were slightly a ball off and the one closer to the plate got called a strike. Now, I don't know if it was still a strike or a ball, but it's nice to know that the pitches were a ball length difference. And if that's the edge of the zone for him, that's the edge of the zone for him. So this is the first time I've ever seen one a pitcher puke on the mound while a guy gets ejected from the other team. It was a big moment in a blowout game in the seventh inning. And the big moment was brought to you by shady rays. If you don't like looking at puke, you can put the shady rays on and maybe it turns it into some really cool color that you didn't think it was gonna be. You can also go to shady rays right now and they got their best discount we could ever give out. You can get two plus pairs of polarized sunglasses by using code BREAKDOWN for 50% off. 50% off, two plus pairs of polarized sunglasses. ShadyRays.com.

The Cardinal State Governor, Nassio Erufei, has asked the federal government to declare bandits in the northwest geopolitical zone of the country as insurgents or terrorists. The governor said the declaration will enable the Nigerian military to attack and kill these bandits without any major consequences in the international law. Erufei, who spoke shortly after receiving the third quarter security report, also said the recruitment of 1,000 youth each across the 774 local government areas of the country would deal a deadly blow to bandits in other criminal elements in the land.

specific, although this conference is held in Taiwan but not too much time in speaker. So today I'm going to give a talk about server infrastructure for Rails in 2016. This title looks a bit of boring to be honest. In 2016 you know every time I put an ear into my big title I feel like well okay so in next year that this slide is no longer useful. But since I have some chance to talk with some Ruby and Rails friends about their work and how they feel when they know Rails and many people complain about when they finish their Rails code and want to put it online and feel quite confused and really panic about putting their Rails code to real-world servers. So we have a conclusion that the running Rails is fun but running Rails is hard comparing to... I even have a conversation with my friends that I say hey come on you write a lot of Rails project but why you don't use Rails in work and say because my boss didn't know, my boss asked me about why we could just upload it and it will run automatically like just you know set up an Apache server plus PHP you know just put the PHP files via FTP and it will run automatically. But anyway so in this talk I want to give you some new concept about Rails server infrastructure and how you can improve it your server infrastructure and make your Rails runs faster. So let me introduce myself. I'm Richard Lee. I work for iCook. iCook is just yet another recipe sharing website in this world using Rails but we basically focus on a time in this market so maybe you cook one day and you will probably find our recipe online and I am developer so I write Rails code since 10 years ago and I also do some infrastructure stuff so that's why I'm giving this talk and yeah you can find me on Twitter and GitHub that's my username let's connect and if you have any feedback of this talk definitely please mention me online or send me email or whatever let me know. So this is our website we are recipe sharing platform and user upload a recipe using web using mobile native app and our major our main revenue comes from some collaboration between brand customer so you can see there is some brands on the right side of our homepage but most recipes are still social community driven so what an important job that in our company is to create all this kind of recipe and put it into different category maybe this is a hot summer not so hard actually but people may want to have some ice cream, mango ice, something like that and so we need to put it into the feature session and that users can assess it and see it when they enter our website. Okay so this is my company and we have some challenge just like every other company does running a business is really hard despite all this technical challenge our main business challenge is that because we have different kind of small apps we have the main website is a social recipe sharing platform but at the same time we have the e-commerce website we have the video website that because for cooking you can you can you can understand that if you only follow the text and image it's hard to see the idea how you could put for for instance you want to put an ingredient when should it be added to your pot or something so in video using video format is better to understand so we have a separate website that is called iCook TV and we have an e-commerce website called iCook market we have several this kind of small website and we try to separate it into several rails project instead of putting into a big model of select big apps so one challenge we have is that we have main developers that they develop a lot of small projects you know they want to put it online quick and fast and also development environment becomes more complex just you can see in the last talk there is MPN start you know you don't have MPN stuff all this kind of know that there is stuff sometimes I think is a bit of confusing for example how many of you have tried any you know MPN or Bower thing that for example if you want to install jQuery via Bower first or four you need to install Node.js and you use MPN to install Bower then use Bower to install jQuery that sounds quite stupid but anyway in real world you might probably need that because several package packages are only available via certain package management system so yeah so not not not mentioned put it online even for our development environment when I on board a new developer to our project I would say oh first of all you need to install Ruby specification and you need to install Node.js and set up your database and set up lots of things and some common libraries like image magic deep XML of course need to be installed to our production server so all this kind of thing make Rails a really complex program to run on your server so today's agenda first I will introduce how to containerize your app many of you might probably hear about some cool stuff Docker you know it's a Docker error I think it's containerize yeah we even have container submit in Taiwan so it's quite popular now and I will let you know how you can you know take your app to make it more container friendly and then I will share our experience while we are doing this process that you know setting up container itself is a hard thing but make it automatically and then make it automatic automatic and building every time you push or commit and it build the image is another thing and some kind of hard and have some we will share I will share my experience with it then I will show how we do centralized logging and monitoring because we have several small apps so it's not possible that we you know just logging into every server and check the log file that doesn't make sense at all and then finally I will show you some recent improvement for Rails and maybe in Ruby ecosystem talking about straight environment why you should adopt a straight environment make your server perform more faster so first thing is containerize your app so talking about container many of you might just you know it's like equivalent to Docker but not necessarily true I think all of the Ruby or Rails developer I met use Heroku before because using Heroku is quite simple we just add a git remote and git push and it will deploy and down you you have the Rails app running on Heroku's cloud and that actually also in containers so I would say if you are starting a new project for Rails and you might probably use Heroku for your first deployment and yeah you are already computerizing your app so not necessarily for Docker but also for Heroku and many other container technologies so is Docker stable yet this is a common question that when I chat with my friends and they say I hear that Docker is some problem or whatever but in my opinion we have switched to a fully Docker environment we run all our server we run all our apps on Docker for I think it's like six months six months and no too much trouble most trouble and most bugs are actually encountered and solved by others so thanks for their contribution so I could I could certainly I can certainly say that yes you can use Docker in production now is a good time to get started yeah many companies use it in production now not only I could but also other you know big world company and you can see that from AWS to Google cloud or even Heroku they provide certain support for Docker so I would say it's widely adopt and more stable technology right now so we can keep it trying and yeah they provide a really simple installation for Mac and Linux right now definitely for Linux it's easy because it's based on some Linux kernel piece to make container work but on Mac you might probably hear that as we set up Docker on Mac is so troublesome but they recently released a new project called Docker for Mac provide a simple package that you can install it run it us in regular Mac app on your laptop and it will immediately provide you a darker common line interface that you can run any image on it so it's super simple now no no no more virtual box no more bigger and all this kind of stuff no more so that's a good thing and yeah as I say a major pause and I spend a lot of time to support if you use Heroku I will recommend you to search something about Heroku's Docker support and you can actually to rebuild like like Heroku like environment on your laptop and put it online to production and of course tons of tutorials online but I need to say that when you when you see any tutorial online do look at this Docker version because Docker changes a lot in recent years so like Docker 1.8 is a major updates and bringing many new features so if you read actually when I was writing these slides I also found that in the next chapter I will talk about our experience with building Docker image on continuous integration server but those problems are already solved so do check the version when you read any tutorials online so I'm not sure how many of you have experience with Docker so I still try to introduce Docker in you know one-on-one way to keep it simple so actually Docker is just like building you know we usually say that writing Rails code to build web address quite simple because you have a lot of a chance available online if you want user authentication you can choose between device choose between all logic many good libraries and Docker share Docker has a really strong community that they share many pre-built images it's called base image for example Docker official provides Ruby image that has it's a I think it's a Ubuntu image with Ruby building and some common libraries and you can actually find some really good base image made by the fusion or the creator of passenger server they release a series of good base image that you can use and so you can choose from many pre-built base image then after you choose a pre-built base image then you add your file and run some Linus comments on it like you want to get install in match magic you want to install Node.js you want to install whatever you like and you can add your Rails project into it and then do bundle install do something else then finally just run it there again Docker run and you just get up and running so it's more much more like compared to the old techniques to build a virtual machine image it's sure many similarity between building a virtual I mean virtual like previously you might probably build images for AWS, build image for virtual box those kind of virtualization thing and this container is a bit of different for virtualization usually you build an image for whole system but for container usually build for one process say for example that this container the only the only single important problem of this container is to run my Rails app so I choose from a good base image then I add my Rails project and specify what you need to be to be done say for example if you're bundling store before you can run your Rails server and specify those command in your Docker file and run it that's it so let me show you a simple conflict I'm not quite sure if it's clear enough if you couldn't see it please raise your hand and so in the first line I say from Ruby 2.3.1 that means that I use this base image which has Ruby 2.3 pre-installed on the Docker image then and I do some command like I get update and run build essential run libpg run load.js add something I need and then I create the directory and then I add my train file to bundling store after bundling store I add the rest of my project file into it then finally run it around bundle Rails server so that's it that's a simple minimal Docker setup you can actually use it our our real-world case looks quite similar to this one we added something more but general speaking just choose the pre-build image then add your project file and install something that you need and run bundle recommend now oh I forgot it you need to maybe do SS3 compile okay then finally specify what it specify the command that you need to run so finally this Docker image it's done so lots of tutorial online so I will skip that for some details but just give you a rough concept and how it looks like but thanks oh always when you read something about some tutorials online everything seems so simple and that means there is a real problem behind so if you read I'm not quite sure how many of you have to read this this 12 factor apps which proposed by hero crew school founder and say stating that how a good web app in modern era should be and they have some certain principle for example that you need to use environments configuration that you means that you're you don't write all this configuration into your file system but instead you can treat config using environment variable or there are several principle that they recommend to preview a good web app so in container era let this same principle still apply for example a good container she looks like first self-contained for example if you have assets definitely of course most rails app has SS pipeline and you have some JavaScript you have some stylesheet and instead of uploading to somewhere else like you can probably using regions like SS sync to upload all this style sheet pre-compiled to S3 or CDN you should actually put it into the container because that when you have some trouble with your app you can just switch and rolling back using the legacy version of your container and put it online you don't have you know two different versions online you have so try to put all the assets everything into the single image then second you need to run one process per container say for example in common rails app you might probably have background worker using exit job using sidekick or using other background processor then one way to do that is that you can run your Docker container with two processes in it one is real server one is sidekick or instead I would suggest that you to run the send image but it's two container send image two instance and one is for rail server one is for your sidekick process okay so what one process per container then also store config in environments just like you might probably have some experience with hero crew there is a simple command code EMV files that you can set environment variables when you are run any Docker container and also if you want to do some admin process on hero crew who might probably use hero crew run console to open up a rails console hero crew server and in Docker there is no I mean you can write some show script but basically it's still like Docker run and do something and we use simple show script called ECS run show ECS means elastic container service it's a service provided by AWS because we put all our Docker images on ECS but anyway you can run it using in a separate admin process and fortunately enough that hero crew folks make many contribution to rails file so rails file is actually container ready they enables they add a several environment variable to tweak default behavior for example that after rails 4.1 you no longer need a database.yaml you can actually put your database configuration in an environment variable called database URL and I highly recommend it and also there is an environment variable called rails serve static file just as I say before a good container should be self content so you you might probably also want to serve a static file from right from your rails web process and in rails file you can just simply add this environment variable to set it to true and it will your rails project will start serve static files and also another good and another good thing in rails file is there is another environment variable called rails log to standard output because in Docker or in hero crew if you want to collect log from your container the only I won't say the only but the recommended way is you just write your log into standard output and your container scheduler system will capture all this dog and put it somewhere else I will cover it later in centralized login part so rails file is container ready so too long don't worry if you haven't had a chance to use Docker in production if you don't really plan to use it in the near future but you still I still recommend you to make your app container ready if you have a config file at this moment you can probably want to switch it switch it to use environment variable okay so then so okay I talked a lot of a good thing about Docker and show you how you can use Docker to make a 12-factor app that the real-world issue is how I could build image in my CI or a CD flow means that wherever I push a commit someone should help me to build the Docker image and actually building Docker image takes some time takes so much time so our first try and first try because we used circle CI so in circle CI and we would just simply add another comment to do Docker image building but unfortunately before we add Docker image building to circle CI testing it's only take less than five minutes to finish all our aspect tasks but after that it's a 15 mini and even more to build the Docker image and you know that's not horrible in our case we want we want we want our CI text wrong within 10 minutes so what's what's happened because Docker has a lot of cash mechanics and it should be fast if you try it on your laptop the first view might probably take much longer time but the second view or third view and if you don't change too much file they will just use the cash file and it will be super super fast so what's happening so why docker cache fails on CI service public CI service because that for Docker image cache work they actually takes file metadata into account to to to compute a hash to compute digest to see if file change or modified so it takes certain metadata and one significant one is MTI which means the file when the file was modified it and it doesn't track MTI so it's actually new to me that when you get called a new project you look after its daytime of those file you will see that they get just doesn't ignore all these days or time or when these files modify all this attribute so when you commit and get a file to get in wouldn't track this kind of attribute but however this is fixed in Docker 1.8 that in Docker 1.8 to compute a file digest to compute a hash in no longer take MTI into account so there's no longer a problem but however that for certain package management system especially one in JavaScript world they sometimes when you do MPN install twice or three times or whatever every time you do MPN installed in it changes some files a bit you do boring store in change the file a bit so it will break the Docker's cache also package management system doesn't work really well in this kind of cache environment and sprocket sprocket also has some cache and if you use certain Ruby genes and it will generate just like just like those package management system does that it will randomly generate some cache file or whatever that will easily to break your Docker cache so how we survive so bring bring your own CI server actually personally I if there is a pay service a hosted solution I will usually usually choose a hosted solution like circle CI or Travis CI but however in this case because in circle CI or in other public CI service between view to view your file I actually pull and download every time when a build starts so which means that the file system is not persistent so but if you roll out your own CI server definitely you will share the same file system between view to view so there's no too much cache issues I think all the files are persistent in your server so don't story short we use junkie plus jinkies junkie is a project open source by GitHub it's just like it's like an API wrapper for jinkies for those who have tried jinkies before you will probably found it really hard to set up and to tweak project setting and jinkies yeah to solve this problem so github folks they created this project called junkie and junkie provide chatroom interface that to install you install a script in your Hubard and you can say Hubard CI build something Hubard CI do something Hubard CI anyway so and more importantly for per project setting that you can add just like using circle CI or Travis CI the configuration of the project building is put into repository so usually I will put a script file in my Rails project and specify how what steps need to be take taken to build Docker image and they provide a good user interface like this you can see how your Docker image build process looks like so yeah so for this part I would say building in Docker image on your laptop is easy but building it on CI service might be hard so do care do take care of those crash issues otherwise you will spend lots of time building oh by the way you might probably hear that Docker official provide a service called Docker Hub and Docker Hub there is automatically building solution but we definitely try that before and that doesn't work they have no cash at all so when I take too much time I've been building an image especially for Rails like if you build assets without any any cash it takes usually takes three to five minutes to build your assets so that's well so through all your own CI service is highly recommended the next off I will talk about centralized logging and monitoring actually more about logging so since we are in a container era so probably I will have multiple server around different kind of apps so I need to have a way to pipe all this log string into the same single pace and so I'm going to talk about Flindy Flindy is Ruby project and we have some native extension for performance and so for Ruby for Ruby guys just like you and me I probably be quite comfortable with Flindy's config you can even write your own plugins I create one for my for certain use case so I can say that it only takes me one day or two days to to survey and try to write my own plugin is quite easy so what it actually does is that before Flindy you might probably see different kind of logs from different era you might probably have web assets logs from maybe you have some operation logs from AWS from hero crew you use different part of service and you want to put it into several place they want to put it into Hadoop you want to put into S3 and it will look like a mask and using Flindy it's just simple as UNIX pipe I really like UNIX file pipe that you can pipe one comment or another comment and this philosophy just look at Flindy and so in Flindy you have a lot of input plugins that collect logs from several different place and then in Flindy itself you can do some filtering do some modification maybe you want to do some passing stuff or filtering out certain logs maybe it's too sensitive or something and then put it into several different output but you might probably want to store data in your MongoDB cluster store data into Amazon okay so it's just make everything looks much better huh so and more importantly that Flindy works so well with Docker that in Docker 1.8 there is a building there's a building logging driver for Flindy which means that as I mentioned before that a good container should put to show output its logs via standard output and using Docker 1.8 it could actually collect your log from your container then put it into your Flindy cluster and do all this pipe piping that put in and downstream your logs to somewhere you like so how we make our log from Rails to Flindy and first of all I will recommend you to use gems like a log rage or log stash which make your log beautifully format into a single line JSON format if you haven't hear of it you haven't tried it I will suggest you to check it out what it does is actually usually in the default Rails production log a single request will generate like five or six lines of logs and one talking about its HTTP request what is passed and what which controller and what views was rendered okay so but in using log rage or log stash this kind of solution could make you your log in combined into a single line so every one request has a one line of log then you output it to standard output using Rails 5 you just tweak any variable to put it to to make it right to standard output then after that when you run a Docker command you can use an option called the log driver equals Flindy then you probably want to tweak some Flindy setting like for example you want to take tag in Flindy is like name your string name your log okay so how did you name this log in Flindy so you add some flint tag and run the image and it will automatically collect your log from standard output of your Rails project to Flindy cluster so that's it that's quite simple to collect logs from Rails to Flindy and in Flindy and you can actually find many configuration files online they have good books for for how to put your log data from from Rails to Elasticsearch or from other pays and I will share our experience the recommended approach is to first of all to pipe all your logs into Flindy if using Docker that will be quite simple because just make your Docker image to write everything into standard output and do the configuration that make your container to output to standard output and after that you collect your logs into Flindy via foot in the driver then second you might probably add some medieval valuable outputs for those who first time do this kind of thing just like me in maybe one years before the the most common problem is that which kind of output should I use should I put it into S3 should I put it into whatever somewhere else but I would say the most simple one is you choose three three kinds of output first you want to do archiving because you want to store all your log in a place that you can you know maybe one years out of the one year like few months later you want to go back and find out what happening at that time so first you might probably store it into S3 then you want to have a query interface which is easier for developers or for your operation people that could find some logs from that then you might probably use Elasticsearch plus Kibana or that's a common and popular solution and for data analytics you for in our case we want to know what users search because search search recipe is a quite common use case in our company in our website many people they search what they want to cook everyday so I want to have a place to do data analytics and you might probably use AWS Redshift or we use treasuredata treasuredata is the company who actually created Flindy and all this open source project and they provide really good hosted Hadoop service with good Presto and all this query interface and pretty nice so this is how our log system looks like and we use Flindy from copy data from Docker and pipe via different footing Flindy server and finally piping to treasuredata's query interface and there's a several rows there are actually access logs from our Rails application so that's how you can build your simple centralized working system so the last thing I want to talk about is server performance tuning this is a huge topic so I wouldn't talk too much because every app has different use case and scenario but the general rules of some of in 2016 is that you use a threaded server it's real safe it's real straight safe yet I would say yes because it thinks rails 2, rails 3, rails 4 every time a major rails upgrade someone will probably ask okay so it's real straight safe yet and I would say yes actually we have using a threaded server for four years and use background process workers like psychic or other threaded solution for your rails app for years and everything runs smoothly not too much trouble for trace but so you can actually see some major performance boost using threaded server for example like psychic versus delayed job or rescue you might probably hear about the job and rescue but they use a single one process model which only handle one task per process but using psychic you can handle 25 or even more jobs in a single process that's much more efficient and for web server there are several solution one is Puma one another is passenger passenger in recent release they have good straight straight more support and if you use unicorn you might probably want to use Rimbos Rimbos is like a fork of unicorn that adds sound straight into your unicorn web server so there's a good article called changing Ruby analyzing Ruby Gen states for 2015 and you can see for app server that Puma actually more and more users are using Puma or think both of them are more concurrent can handle more requests at the same time and for background workers and the psychic just fly right up so I would say a threaded environment is quite stable in nowadays and also for hero crew previously maybe in the first few years of hero crew they recommend you to use unicorn but in last year they start to recommend user to use Puma and not to mention in real-time the default web server becomes Puma and drops web brick and use Puma so for the reason I would say for instance if you stop you create a new real-time project and you run real server by default you use Puma and they also provide default Puma to be config config okay it's a table so I provide a default Puma configuration file and by default it has you use a straight mode so my default you have five straight in the same process so for those who is inquire understand what's the difference between straight and process and general idea is that using multiple strings means that they share the same memory and using several process means they don't share the same memory so for certain cases that you might you might not want your different worker different web request handling using the same data otherwise there might be data corruption or something but if your program is designed properly you try to avoid this kind of you know share memory usage and that will be fine so the problem is actually not rails if rails if rails is straight safe yeah but the problem is that does your app straight safe yet so common trading issue when we migrating our service from unicorn from rescue to Puma to psychic or first of all you try to avoid using class variable or global variable because all these variables say it's global so it will be assets from different straight and if you change your value and do something with it and your app server might probably explode then another common issue is that many gens are not actually not straight safe I just named a few but usually can find a what could run for that for example in our match many people use our magic for image manipulation but instead you can use mini magic and AWS SDK provides a configuration that you can eager load all the class to avoid low straight problems alright so that's summary what you need what I want to tell you is certain some trends for real server infrastructure in this year so first is that you should try to containerize your apps no matter you are planning to use Docker or not if you use hero crew you already run your rails app in a container environment second be careful about CI cache issues know this is more specific to circle CI and my use case but generally speaking if you want to use any container do care to take care of CI cache issues then third you need to build your minimal viable centralized locking solution if you use others if no matter you use Flynn D or use other tools this is pretty important and you should build it up you should build up your own centralized locking system from day one this is really important thing then adopt straight okay so there's many terrible story how they when they migrate to straight server and things broke and explode but that's not not that terrible okay it's already quite stable yet so just use it so finally thank you and oh we are hiring so if you are finding a job just come and chat with me okay

Hofstuk 15 van Don Quixote de Lamantia. Deze Librivox-opname is vrij van auteursrechten. Opname door Bart de Leeuw. Don Quixote de Lamantia doormt ik wel de Sevant de Saavedra in de beweging van Jeje-Agroveneur. Hofstuk 15. Don Quixote zoekt zijn hoge gebiederes, doet Sinea van Tobozou op. Toen de dolende ridder en zijn wakkere schildknaap het open veld bereikt hadden, snoof en briezen de rokinante luid en begon ook het groutje uit volle keel zijn welluidende ja in de lucht te brullen. Bij de zage deze omstandigheid voor een zeer gunstig voorteken aan en hun harten klopten van blijdschap, nu ze zich de daden voorstelden die zij in het vervolg zeker bedrijven en de onvergankelijke roem die zij daarvoor inoogsten zouden. Sanchopanza spakt Don Quixote toen zij in post zwijgend zij en zij hadden voortgedraafd. Sanchopanza de avond valt en het zal donkerder worden dan wij wensen voordat we Tobozou bereiken dat ik in alle gevallen bezoeken moet. Daar waar dood Sinea leeft en ademt wil ik haar zegen afsmeken, nadien ik overtuigd ben dat ik daardoor ieder avontuur gelukkig zal te boven komen. Niets moet jij weten maakt de dolende ridders gelukkiger en dapperder dan dat zij van de genade en de bescherming hun er meeste resten verzekerd zijn. Daar wil ik niets van zeggen, gestrengen heer antwoorden Sanchopanza, die wist wat hij van Dood Sinea te denken had. Maar toch kan het nog wel wat moeite kosten Dood Sinea te spreken te krijgen en een geschikte plaats te vinden waar hij de zegen van de hoge dame ontvangen kunt. Ik vrees dat ze u die over de schutting of door een gat in de muur zou moeten geven. De schutting Sancho, vroeg Don Quixote verwonderd, zei het gedam blind geweest of heb u uw ogen niet gebruikt? Wat geivel de schutting aanzaard was zeker een rij van trotse gallerijen, gangen en boge welven, zoals men die altijd bij rijke koninklijke paleizen heeft. Nu, dan weet ik het niet, verklaarde Sancho. Voor zover mij voorstaat, was het een gewone schutting en nog wel in niet al te beste staat, want ik meende er vrij wat schuren, spliten en gaten in te zien. Dat mag wezen hoe het wil, zei Don Quixote en weinig verdrietig, maar toch zullen we haar een bezoek brengen. Als ik haar maar te zien krijg, raakt het mij weinig of over een schutting, of door een raam, of door een tradihek, de straal van haar oog op mij valt en mijn ziel verlicht. Een blik van haar zal mij bezienen en wel zo geweldig dat ik onvergetelijk moet worden in deugd en in dapperheid. Sancho Pansa schudde het hoofd zonder op deze hoogdraven de taal iets te antwoorden en zwijgend vervolgde een ridder en knap nu voortaan hun weg. Het zal tegenmiddel nacht hebben gelopen toen zij bij een heuvel neerdalende turbozo bereikten. In het dorp heerste de diepste rust, want natuurlijk lagen al de bewoners te bed en rusten in de armen van de slaap. De maan stond aan de hemel en de nacht was dus niet zo donker als Sancho Pansa gewenst had. Het zou hem liever geweest zijn dat geen sterretje aan de hemel had geblonken, daar de donkerheid hem dan tot verontschuldering van zijn onwetendheid kon hebben gediend. Hij had, gelijk wij weten, turbozo nog met geen voet betreden, hoewel hij de bedroge ridder duizend dingen van Doetschinea en zijn boodschap aan haar had weten op de motorspelden. Zoals gezicht is, lagen de bewoners van het dorp nog in de diepste slaap en men vanaam niets dan de blaffen van honden, dat de ridder hoogst onaan genaam in de oren klonk, terwijl het de vreesachtige schildknaap niet minder beangsterde. Toen het blaffen niet ophield, voegde zich daar nog andere tonen bij. Eesosbalikten, varkensknorren, paarden snoveen, kattenmijouden, wat alles in de stilte van de nacht duidelijker dan ooit hoorbaar was. Don Quixote behaagde dat voorstreekt niet, daar hij al die geluiden voor slechte voortekens hield, hoewel hij er niets van zij, maar stil en Sanchopanzas zijde doorreed. Eindelijk brak hij het lange stilzwijgen af en sprak. Sancho breng mij naar het paleismijnen gebiedstig. Misschien wil een gelukkig toevall dat wij haar wakende vinden. Maar na wat paleis moet ik u dan brengen, Edelen Heer, rips Sancho verlegen uit. Hier heeft mij geen paleisen en, zoals ik u al zei, uw doet Chinea woont in een ellender klein kot van een huisje. Gij vergest u zeker, vriend, beweerde Don Quixote. Waarschijnlijk had mijn Edelen gebiedster zich toen maar in een zijvleugel van haar voorstelijke paleis afgezonderd, gelijk hoge dames wel eens meer de stilte en eenzaamheid zoeken. Gestrengen Heer, antwoorde Sancho, gesteld, nu al, dat jij gelijk had, is het dan toch wel gepast dat wij zo, in het hollen van de nacht, de rust uur meesteressen storen. Als wij op de deur kloppen, zullen ook de buren wakken worden en ons fozeert de wazen en onzinnige mensen houden. Dat moeten we afwachten, zei de ridder, laat ons eerst maar haar burcht opzoeken en dan zal ik u zeggen wat verder te doen. Zie daarin Sancho, een donker gebouw reist daar hoog op in de nacht en ik bedrieg mij zeker niet als ik dat voor de woonsteden mijn onvergetelijke dame houdt. Rijdt er dan maar op los, bromde de schildknaap, maar ik laat me hangen als je het niet glad mis hebt. Donkie Zod gaf Rokinante de sporen en reed vooruit. Toen hij echter in de nabijheid van het grote gebouw was gekomen, zag hij wel dat hij niet het slot ene Edelen prinses, maar enkel de kerk van het dorp voor zich had. Het is de kerk, zei hij, onaargenaam verrast. Ja, dat zei ik, zei Sancho Pansa, en de hemo geven maar dat wij niet op het kerk of ons graf vinden. Voor het overige heb ik u wel gezegd dat de woning van U doet Chinea in een of andere achterafstraatje moet liggen. Ezel, domkop, stommerlijk, belderde Donkie Zod. Waar heb je dan ooit van uw leven gezien dat riddersloten en paleizen in achterafstraatjes liggen? Gehoord er gezien heb ik dat niet, was Sancho's koelantwoord, maar Stanswijs, Stans Eer, zegt het spreekwoord, en misschien is het hier in Tobbo zowel gebruikelijk grote huizen en voornamen gebouwen wat achteraf te zetten. Dat je mijn raad volgen, gestrengen ridder, laat mij dan maar eens op mijn eigen houtje gaan zoeken. Misschien lukt het ons wel het paleis van uw gebiedster te vinden, dat mijn hetwege in de grond mag verzinken, zoveel ergedis heb ik er al van gehad. Sancho Pansa, zei de ridder op dreigende toon, ik raad u met achting van alle dingen te spreken die bent mijn gebiedster ook maar van verre in verband staan. Ga nu voor het zijn vrede, zoek al uw best, en als je het paleis gevonden hebt, valt dat niet zo dadelijk met de duur in huis. Overleg Sancho, overleg en bedaardheid bij alle dingen en in alle omstandigheden moet de hoofddeugd van iedere dodende schildknaap zijn. Ik ben bedaard genoeg, antwoordde Sancho Pansa, maar hoe zou ik mij geduld niet verliezen als uw wederlijkheid verlangt dat ik midden in de nacht en huis weerom zou vinden dat ik nog maar eens bij helderdag licht gezien heb? Waarom zoekt jij zelf het dan niet? Gij moest er toch dunk mij in een omgezin kunnen vinden, daar ga je het meer dan duizend maal moet gezien hebben? Sancho Pansa, jij zou mij nog tot razen een nei brengen, scheelde donkje zot. Ik heb je wel honderd maal gezegd dat ik de gebiede resten mij naar ziel nog in enkele maal met eigen ogen aanschoudt dat ik nog nooit de drempel van haar geheilig paleis betreden heb. Nu, edale heer, als je haar nog niet gezien hebt, dan heb ik haar ook niet gezien, antwoordde Sancho. Mijn kan uit u niet wijs worden. Nu spreekt ge zus, dan spreekt ge zo, al naar het u best past. En meent dat jij uw schildknaap vrij de huid vol mocht liggen? Vop je mij, ik vop je weer, zegt het spreekwoord en dat heb ik ook al vaak genoeg gedaan. Ik zeg er nu ronduit dat ik nog uw doel Txinea, nog haar vader, nog één haar en familie ooit met eigen ogen gezien heb. En daarmee Basta. Sancho, Sancho, sprak donkje zot, met heilige dingen mag mij niet gekscheren. Hoe kunt jij dus zeggen dat jij doel Txinea nooit gezien hebt, daar jij mij zoveel van haar hebt verteld? Wat ik vertelde heb ik maar zo van horen zeggen gehad, antwoordde de schildknaap. Voordat de ridder antwoordde, bemerkte hij dat hem een man met twee maalezels voorbij kwam, die een ploeg trokken. Waarschijnlijk wilde man naar de akken gaan en voordag een daus in arbeid beginnen. En donkje zot nam de gelegenheid waar, om bij hem naar dood Txinea's woning te vernemen. Kun je mij ook zeggen, goede vriend, riep hij hem toe, waar ik hier ergens in het paleis van de onvergetelijke prinses dood Txinea van Tobozo vindt. De boer hield zijn spanneisel stil en keek verwonderd op. Heer, zei hij dan kort berat, ik ben hier zelf nog vreemd, daar ik mij hier eerst voor korte dagen bij een boer als knekt verhuurt heb. Als je alles precies weten wilt, gaat dan bij de pastoor, die daar recht tegenover in dat grote huis woont. Evenwel kan ik kwalijk geloven dat hier in het dorp een prinses verblijf houdt, of schone vrouwen genoeg zijn die binnen haren vier muren wel voor prinsessen doorgaan kunnen. Na deze woorden dreef de man zijn dieren weer aan en reed door, terwijl donk is wat hem verdrietig nakek. Re strengen heer, zei Sancho tot de ridder, de dag begint te lichten, en ik geloof niet dat het goed is dat wij ons hier voor de zon op straat laten vinden. Het zou beter wezen dat jij u hier in de omtrek ergens in een bosje verborgen hield, terwijl ik geen hoekje onder zorg wil laten tot ik uw prinses gevonden heb. Het moest dan vreemd toe gaan, als ik haar niet eindelijk te pakken kreeg. U raad bevalt mij, Sancho Pansa, antwoorde Don Quixote na kort nadenken. Volg mij dus eerst tot buiten de dorp, en keer terug om haar te horen, te zien en te spreken. Van harte blij dat hij zijn heer zo gewillig vond, maakte Sancho dat hij buiten de dorp kwam, en hield eerst een heel eind daarvan daan, stil bij een bosje, waar Don Quixote zich tussen de boben schuil kon houden, terwijl Sancho Pansa ongewijd naar het dorp terugkeerde. Toen de knapechter zover was, dat zijn meester hem niet meer zien kon, liet hij zich doodbedaard van zijn ezel neergelijden, wirp zich onder een boom in het Malse Gras neer, en hield de volgende alleen spraak. Moest wel zot wezen als ik naar prinsessen een paleiziging zoeken, die heel niet in de wereld zijn. Mijn heer moet gefopt worden en zal gefopt worden. Zoveel is zeker dat hij gek is, stapelgek. Het ene ding voor het ander houdt, en zwart voor wit, maar wit voor zwart daar zit, zoals bij die windmolens. De schapen kudden, en de hemel weet waar meer zonneklaar gebleken is. De eerste de beste boeren mijt die ik te zien krijg, stel ik hem als prinses dood Sinea voor. Geloof daar mij niet, dan beswerik het, en vloekt hij, dan beswerik het weer, en wil het zo lang besweren, tot ik hem eindelijk de baas word. Hij leidt mij dan of later, met zijn mallenboodschappen, algemoeid, of misschien denkt hij ook, dat de ene of andere toven naar zijn prinses om hem te plagen heeft omgehext, en het een is mij zo lief als het ander, en zal mij voortaan het leven minder zuur maken. Na die stichtelijke redenering leerde Sanctio rustig zijn hoofd deeg, sloot de ogen en deed een dutje, dat tot de late na middag duurde. Toen eerst bestegen hij zijn ezerweer en ging zijn meester opzoeken. Zijn goed geluk wou dat hij drie boeren meiden inhaalde, die op muileesels dezelfde weg reden, en nu was zijn plan dadelijk ontworpen. Zijn groudje in drafzettend was hij spoedig bij zijn ridder, en vond hij stijf te paardzittend en luidzuchtend en weklagend over het lang uitblijven van zijn schildknaap. —Nu, hoe is het, Sanctio? —vroeg hij. Moet ik deze dag met een zwarte, of mag ik hem met een witte steen tekenen? —Met een witte, of nog liever met een vuurrode, —antwoorde Sanctio Panza. —Ge hebt u ook in Antema aan te sporen en de weg op te rijden om uw aanminnengedoed Cinea te zien. Zij komt daar met twee van haar hoofddamens aandraven om u een bezoek te brengen. —Wat zegt gedaar? —Riepdonkischot half verschrikt. —Hoot u! —Hoot u, Sanctio! —Mij opzettelijk te misleiden, om door een bedriegelijke boodschap mijn diepe treurigheid in een snelvervliegend geluk te verkeeren. —Maar, heer ridder, wat zou het mij baten als ik u trachten te bedriegen? —Vroeg, Sanctio, met een doodonno zo gezicht. —Gij zou dat bedroeg immers in een omgezin ontdekken. —Kom, kom en spoel uw ros om uw verheven gebiedster van aangezicht tot aangezicht te aanschouwen. —Ach, wat is zij mooi, heer? —Zij en haar staatsiedamens glimmen van klinklaar goud, van juwelen, van paaroos en van brokkaat. —Haar kuldend haark blinkt in de zonneschijn en vladdert in de wind. Zij rijden op drie telgangers, zoals ik ze mijn leven lang nog niet gezien heb. —Nu, dan willen we ons haast, de vriend Sanctio, antwoorden Don Quixote. Heb dank voor de heugelijke tijding en maak er staat op dat ik u daar koninklijk voor belonen zou. Ze brachten hun dieren in draf en zagen uit het bos komen, de drie boerrinnetjes reed dicht voor zich. Don Quixote keek deze echte nauwelijks aan, maar liet zijn ogen over de weg naar Torbozo rondgaan, om de schone prinses Doetsinnea met haar hoofddamens te zien te krijgen. Met grote verwondering bemerkte hij echte dat van de drie geen spoorten ontdekken was, en vroeg de zes schildktaar of die haar reeds buiten de dorp had gezien. —Wel zeker heb ik dat, ze Sanctio Pansa? Heeft uw edelijkheid dan geen ogen in het hoofd, en ziet de prinses niet, die daar aankomt, schitterend als de zon en flickerend als timaal honderdduizend diamanten? —Sanctio Pansa, ik zie niets dan drie boeren meiden op drie mageren bonken van muileesos. —Wel drom alleen geen einde, riep Sanctio met gevrijns de verwondering. Is het mogelijk dat hij drie zulke juweljes van paarden voor muileesos en uw hoge gebiederes voor een boer rin aanziet? De roze zijn spierwit als vers gevallen stil, en bijna mag geen Sanctio Pansa wezen als het niet waarin Bolwa is. —Ik zeg je even wel, riep de ridder, dat het drie ezelinnen en drie boeren meiden zijn, zo waar als ik op rokenanten en jij op je groutje zit. —Zwijk stil, ridder, zwijk stil, genadige heer, en kijk beter uit de ogen, —zai Sanctio, daar komt u me daar maar al aan, rijdt haar tegemoet en betoont haar de verschillende achting en eerbied. En zonder af te wachten wat zijn heer doen zou, reed hij vooruit om de drie boerinnen te begroeten. Hij liet zich van zijn ezel te glijden, greep het paard van de zogenaamde doet Cinea bij de teugel, en viel al bij de knieën neer en sprak. —Hogen en door luchtige prinses, kijzen ridder de schoonheid, wilt kij zo goed wezen en uw getrouwen ridder ontvangen, die daar door uw aanblik betovert, als versteend staat, en door uw tegenwoordigheid totaal is betuterd. —Ik ben Sanctio Pansa, de schildknaap, maar hij is de wijdvermaerde en hoogbevaamde held Don Quixote de Lamantia, ridder van de droevige figuur. Gedurende Sanctio's deftige toespraak was ook Don Quixote naast zijn schildknaap neergeknield, en sta er verbaasd en verbijsterd de schone aan, die door Cinea als prinses en kijzerin werd aangesproken. Daar hij nog altijd niets dan een heel gewone, en daarbij nog vrij lelijke boeren meid met platte neus en een mond als hem bakken over kon zien, geraakte hij zoveel streek dat hij buiten staat was, ook maar een enkelwoord over de lippen te brengen. De boerinnen waren intussen niet minder verlegen dan hijzelf. Een hele poos keken zij verbaasd op de knielende helden neer en wisten niet wat van Sanctio's zotte toespraak te denken, totdat eindelijk de vermeende doet Cinea het woordnam en vrij kribber en boos riep. —Loop naar de maan en laat ons een padvrij, wat hebben wij nodig met al die malligheden. —O, bekoorlijke prinses en gebiedenresten van Tobozo, antwoorden Sanctiopanza, wordt dan uw stenen hard niet verweekt door het leed van de ridder aan uw voeten. —Laten we ons met vree lelijke keros, schilden de meiden, wij doen geen mens wat, wat heb je dan ons overlast aan te doen? —Sanctiopanza, sta op, bevalt ook je shot op het drukte toon. Ik zie wel dat weer een ongelukkig sterren te boven mijn hoofd staat en dat de bron van mijn leiden nog niet is opgedroogd. Gijechter, aanbiddelijke doet Cinea, die gelijk ik nu wel zie door een snoede toverdaag van uw verrukkelijke schoonheid en aanminnigheid werd beroofd, buig u neder tot mij, verkwik en laaf mij door een zoete strouw uit uw ogen en zie uit deze mijne kniebuiging dat ik u ten eeuwige dagen als mijn hoge gebiedenresten vererend zal. —Dies meer rauwe vent is gek, ruw de meid, terwijl ze Sanctiopanza de tegelers van haar muil is om het geweld uit de handen rukte. Laat los, lelijke dik zak, en houd ons niet langer op met je dolge zanenk. Sanctiopanza week op zij en de boerendenen zette het nu dadelijk op hun draf. Ze waren echter niet ver, over daar kwam doet Cinea's eezel te struikelen en wirp zijn bereidster af. Dokke shot dadelijk toe om haar weer op de been te helpen, doch voordat hij nog bij haar kwam, was zij weer opgesprongen, nam een aanloop, zette haar een vuisterde op de achter schonkend van haar rijdier, zat met een wip weer in de zadel al op Peerdenvoort, zonder ook maar eens naar de verbaasde ridder om te zien. De dolende held tuurde haar na, tot zij uit zijn gezicht verdwenen was, en keerde zich toen tot Sanctio met de woorden. Wat zegt genu mijn schildknaap? Ziet ga nu hoe erg ik door de tovenaars gehaat en vervolgd wordt. Ze hebben bij het onschuldig genot ontroofd van mijn aangebedenen in de volle glans haar schoonheid te zien en haat op mijn kwelling in een gemene boeren meid veranderd. Ja, ja, het zijn rekels. Het zijn schobbenjakken al die tovenaars, riep Sanctio uit. Maar top daar maar niet over gestreggen, heer, want ik weet wel vast dat de deugt en dapperheid bij slot van rekening over alle boosheid triomferen moet. Don Quixote antwoorden hier niet op, maar bestegen weer zijn rokinanten en de schildknaap zijn goudje. En zo zuckelde beide de weg naar de wereldberoemde stad Zarragossa op. Voordat ze die bereikten, moesten ze echter nog vele lijf wonderbaarlijke avonturen beleven waarvan wij niet verzuimen mogen het trouw- en warachtigere laas te laten volgen. Einde van hoofdstuk 15 Hofstuk 16 van Don Quixote van La Mancha Deze Libri-Volksopname is vrij van auteursrechten. Opname door Bart de Leeuw. Don Quixote van La Mancha doormiek wel de Cervantes Saavedra in de bewerking van Jeje A. Goevenur. Hofstuk 16 de Kardes Doots en de Riddr met de Spiegelz. Terwijl Don Quixote in diep gepijnt zijn weg vervolgde, keek Sanchopanza over het glukken van zijn list in zijn vuisje lachend, vrolijk rond en ontdekte een wagen die met allerlei vreemde gedaanten en personages beladen was. Hij maakte Don Quixote daar opmerksam op en beide staarde het wonderlijk schouwspel verbaasd aan. De voerman van de wagen was een schikbare duivel en de wagen zelf was open en onbedekt. Binnenin zat de dood in levende lijven en met een menselijk aangezicht. Naast hem vertonen zich een engel met bondbeschilderde vleugels. Verder stond daar een kijzer met zijn gouden kron op het hoofd en aan de voetendes dood zat God Cupido met boog, koker en peilen. Buitendien waren nog een Riddr in Blank Harnas en een menigde andere personen in verschillende drachten en met allerlei tronies en gezichten op de wagen te zien. Hoewel eerst een weinig ontsteld, kreeg de ridder van de droevige figuur toch spoedig zijn gewone bedaardheid weer en geloofde dat er een nieuw avontuur in aantocht was. In deze mening stelde hij zich dicht voor de kar impostuur en riep met dreigende stem voerman of duivel of wat gewezen mocht, zegt mij onverweld wie jij bent en wat vreemdvolk jij daar bij u hebt. Ach, waar de heer antwoordde de duivel zeer onderdanig. Anders niet dan arme comedianten die in het kleine dorp kinder achter de heuvel een voorstelling van de hofhouding des doods willen geven. Om tijd te sparen en ter stond na ons aankomst het spel te kunnen beginnen hebben we ons maar vooraf verkleed. Deze knapje speelt voor doods die voor Engel, die voor soldaat die voor keizer en ik zelf voor duivel. Zo is het gelegen met het geval en als jij nog meer wilt weten vragen dan maar vrij, daarin daarvoor alles moet weten kan ik u wis voldoend bescheid geven. Nee, nee, ik weet al genoeg sprak Don Quixote. Toen ik elkaar zag meende ik dat ik enig avontuur zou moeten bestaan maar ik merk nu wel anders. Trek din vrede goede lui houdt u vertoning en bedenkt eens of jij het niet één of ander voor mij te doen weet. Van harte graan wil ik u van dienst wezen want als kind ben ik al een groot vriend van zulke mommen spelen geweest. Terwijl Don Quixote zulke goeilijke en vriendelijke woorden sprak wilde het toevall dat de paljas van het gezelschap die wat achter was gebleven aankwam. Hij was als Hans Worst gekleed met belletjes behangen en had op het hoofd een zotskap en in de hand een stok aan het einde waarvan drie grote, met echte gevulde koeblazen gingen. Zodra hij Don Quixote zien kreeg begon hij zijn stok te zwaaien met de blazen te rammelen, te springen en capriode te maken zodat al zijn belletjes rinkelden. Dat geraas en het vreemd uitzien van de paljas bracht er ook je nante zo van streek dat hij het gebied tussen de Tandenam en wat de ridder ook trok en riep in suisende galop over de vlakte voortstof. Zien de hoe zijn heer zo gevaarlief van zandruiter te worden spong de Sancho Pansa van zijn groutje en liep achter de ridder aan om hem bijstand te verlenen. Voordat hij hem bereikte was het ongeluk al gebeurd Don Quixote lag zo lang als hij was op de grond en Rokinante lag naast hem. Zodra hij echter Sancho Pansa van zijn ezel was gestapt spong de paljas op groutje en sloeg het met zijn rammelende blazen om de oren. Het gedodige beest doordat nooit gehoorde geraas verschrik zette het nu op een lopen en holde regelrecht op het dorp aan waar de comediante hun voorstelling wilde geven. Sancho zag zijn ezel weglopen maar zag ook tegelijk de benouwde toestand waarin zijn heer verkeerde en wist dus eerst niet naar wat kant hij zich keren zou. Na kort beraten hij echter als trouw en eerlijk schildknaap eerst zijn heer te hulp te springen die tegenstaande hem telken zijn steek door het hart ging als hij die verwenste hans worst zijn stok om de oren van zijn arme groutje zag zwijen. Hij wou liever dat al die slagen hem zelf troffen dan dat zijn lief ezeltje ook maar een haartje in zijn staart gekrenkt werd. Inboeden en verdwijfeling over de ongelukkige staat van zijn lieverning naden de hij Don Quixote die vrijdelig toegetakeld was en hielp hem weer op de been en bovenop zijn rokinante. De duivel heeft mijn ezel gehaald ederle heer, zei hij toe Welke duivel dan, vroeg de doden de hiddig. De duivel met blazen antwoordde Sancho, daar gaat hij met hem aan de haal. Dan wil ik hem weer veroveren als ik hem uit de afgrond van de hel halen riep Don Quixote. Volg mij Sancho, de wagerheid langzaam en de mui-ezels die hem trekken zullen u het verlies van uw ezel vergoeden. Laat dat maar rusten, heer, zei Sancho, naar ik zie heeft de duivel mijn goudje al losgelaten en komt het op een drafje weer naar ons toe. Toch moet zijn leider gevroken worden, verklaarde Don Quixote en voor de ondeugendheid van de Hans Bost moet het gansige zelschap boeten. Heer, riep Sancho Panza, zet u die gedachten in semersnaar maar het hoofd en laat u niet in met potsemakers die overal in hoge gunsten gratis staan. Zullen ze hun verdiende tuchtiging ontvangen, sprak de ridder. Met deze woorden keerde hij zich naar de wagen die al dicht bij het dorp was en riep met daarvoor in de stem Halt, halt, wacht wat mensen en ik wil u tonen hoe men in ezel behandelt waarop de schild knap van een dolende ridder rijdt. Don Quixote was met zulke gezonde longen begraafd dat het volkje op de kar hebben van woord tot woord verstond en zonder veel moeite zijn voornemen begreep. Beteen was dus de dood van de kar, duivel, erro en kijkerspongen vlug achterna en ook de overige gedaan ten draalde niet dat voorbeeld te volgen. Allang raapten uw stenen van de grond op, gingen in een gesloten rij staan en wachten zo, man moedig de ridder af om hem met een hagel bui van stenen te ontvangen. Toen onze helte dreigende houding der vijjanden en hun armen tot de worp opgeheven zag, hield hij rokinant te staande en overlegde op wat wijze hij die rij met het geringste gevaar voor zichzelf aanvallen en over hoopwerpen zou. Terwijl hij dienangaande nog in het onzekeren was, kwam Saint-Jupain-Sanader en riep hem volschrik toe, hier, ik zeg dat het roekeloos en dwaas zijn zou tegen zulke legermacht opdrücken beding dat men tegen in kijkstenen regen weinig uitrichten kan en dat het doldries zou zijn en krijg zeer aan te tasten dat dood en kijzer tot aanvoeders heeft engel en duivel bevechten. En mocht het alles u nog niet afschrikken bedenkt dan toch dat onder die gantse bender al heeft ze koningen en kijzers toch geen enkel doodend ridder is. Dat is waar Saint-Jupain-Sanader antwoordde Don Quixote. Je hebt daar het rechte punt getroffen het enige dat mij bewegen kan van mijn voornemen af te zien. Ik mag mij goed zwaar tegen niemand ontbloten die niet werkelijk tot ridder is geslagen. Maar jij Saint-Jupain-Sanader zo gij vraag wilt nemen voor de beschimping uw ezo aangedaan draal dan niet en wees verzekerd dat ik u met nuttige raadgevingen en wenken ter zijde zal staan. Nee edele heer ik wil het maar liever blauw blauw laten gedaane dingen nemen toch geen keer verklaarde de schildknaap. Als ik mijn goudje mij weer omkrijg wil ik er verder geen water om vuil maken. Wel aan dan Saint-Jupain-Sanader sprank de ridder. Indien dit werkelijk hoe vast besluit is die aakelijke schimmende spookzoes dan maar laten lopen en avonturen opzoeken waarbij meerhoem en eris te behalen. Pak uw ezo bij de teugel daar komt hij al vrolijk aan draven. Saint-Jupain het goudje op donky shot weer prokinanten om en de opgejaagde zwermcomedianten keerden naar de verlaten kar terug. De nacht die op deze dag volgden brachten onze twee helden onder enige lommerijke bomen door. Ze zadelden af verterden hun avondkost uit de knapsak van de ezel, strikte zich toen donky shot onder een eik, Saint-Jupain ze onder een keurboom uit en waren spoedig inslaap. Een tijd lang sneukte beide rustig en ongestoord. Toch, opeens rees donky shot overreind en keek rond. Hij had een ongewoon gerucht vernomen en ontdekte nu twee mannen te paard van wie de een juist uit de zaders tegenzij neem onze dieren de teugels af en laat zich grazen. Deze plaats schijnt rijkend met gas gezegend en in eenzaamheid hier pas ze goed voor mijn rust zoekende gedachten. Na deze woorden wirpt de nieuwe aankomeling zich op de grond en zijn wapens maakte zoekend gedreun en gekletterd dat donky shot ter stond begreep dat hij hier een echte donende ridder voor zich had. Hij schudde Saint-Jupain de arm en kreeg hem schoon niet zonder moeite, wakker. Saint-Jupain, vriend Saint-Jupain fluisterde hij een avontuur is daarbij. De hemel geefde dat wat goed is antwoordde de schildknaap en vreef zich de ogen uit. Waar is het dan? Kijk, die kant uit vriend antwoordde donky shot gij zult het donende ridder als ik ben ontdekken die zo even van zijn strijdrost steeg en zich onder het kletteren zijn er wapen rustig op de aarde uitstrekten. Ja, waarachter ik zie hem verzekerde Saint-Jupain-za wat zullen we met hem aanvangen? Op dit ogenblik richten de vreemde ridder die dat gefluister vermoederlijk vernomen had zich op en voegbaarst wie is daar? Wie spreekt daar? Behoort je tot het getal der ver genoegden of tot het getal der mistroostigen? Wij behoren tot de mistroostigen antwoordde donky shot walaan kom dan hier op dat we elkaar naden leren kennen sprak de vreemde ridder. Ter stond stond donky shot op en nadende met Saint-Ju de onbekende die zich van het gas half oprichtte en onze ridder uitnodigde te nemen. Saint-Jupain-za vervoegde zich in tussen bij de wapendrager van de vreemde dolende ridder en zij even als de ridders begonnen elkaar nu hun ontmoetingen in een avonturen te vertellen. Naarvoor zijn collega een werk klaag lieten hebben aangeheven begon Saint-Jupain-za dit onderhoud echter alspoedig moeten worden en verlangde daar hij onderwijl al weer honger had gekregen uitermatezeer naar enige zuchtigheid. Daar weet ik hoe de raad voor, zei zijn collega ik heb een kostelijk middel tegen honger en dorst aan de zadelknop van mijn paard hangen. Met deze woorden stond hij op en kwam al spoedig terug met een grote goed gevulde wijnzak en een pastij die wel in halfel hoog en breed was. I, eimaat, ben je van zo'n teerkost voorzien, vroeg Saint-Ju en likte zich al de lippen. Wel weer zijn zeker, antwoorden de vreemde schildknaap denk je dat ik mijn zware dienst heb aangenomen om van water en brood te leven. Het mocht wat, ik eet en drink er zo goed van als menig generaal niet. Maar tas toe en laat je niet lang nodigen. Saint-Ju die het een aard nodig in genoeg zijn en had zonder er omnut te worden bij te verliezen. In de donker stopte hij brokker zo groot als een vuist in de mond. Toen hij zijn bekomst had, tastte hij naar de wijnzak en men zou liegen als men de dochstige knap nazij dat hij de opening daarvan korter dan een kwartier achterheen aan de mond hield. Toen hij met slokken ophield boog hij het hoofd op zee, haalde diep adem en zei Hoor om deugend schermpje ik wil gehangen worden als deze wijn niet uit een klooster gestolen is. De vreemde lachte zonder te antwoorden en de beide kameraats praten en dronken totdat eindelijk de slaap hun de zware oogleden toedrukte. In vrede rusten verhaalde de vreemde ridder aan onze donkisch shot dat zijn hoge en edele uitverkoerende Castile Dea van Vandalia werd geheten en dat zij onvergetelijk, zowel in schoonheid als in voornamheid was. Voor kort zei hij, heeft ze mij opgedragen alle provinciën van Spanje te doorkruisen en iedere dolende ridder tot bekentenis te dwingen dat zij de aanminnigste schoonheid is die ooit door de zon beschenen werd. Ik deed volgens haar bevel en weer het menige ridder in het stof neer. Maar waarop ik het meest trots ben is een kamp met de beroemde ridder donkisch shot van La Mancha. Ook hem overwon ik in twee gevecht en dwong ik tot de verklaring dat mijn gebiedster, Castile Dea schooner is dan de zijne die doet Chinea heet. Toen onze donkisch shot de bosridder die hij in zijn gantse leven nog niet gezien had al dus hoorde spreken ontbrande hij in geweldige toren sprong op en riep gij ligt snode en schanderlijke ridder want weet ik ben het die gij noemt ik ben donkisch shot van La Mancha bij genaamd de ridder van de droevige figuur kom op te strijden zo gij moet daartoe hebt. De bosridder antwoorde zeer koelbloedig dus zeid gij donkisch shot nu dat moet wel de een of andere schelm u hebben uitgegeven die ik in de mening dat hij zelf voor mij stond in het stand weerp dat schaat even wel niet daar ik nu inhalen kan wat ik toen verzuimde wacht nu echter de dag af daar het geen gebruik is dat edele ridders hun wapenfijten in de donker vol brengen als rovers en goudieven over dag wil ik u staan de voet entepaard met zwaard en met lans goed daar ben ik tevreden mee en ik sta voor dat we onze schildknapen wekken wij tegen zons opgang onze paarden getuigd en gezadeld hebben ze gingen naar de plaats wijde twee in slaaplagen wekten hen en bevalen hun al het nodige tot het de voorgenomen kamp gereed te maken Sancho schikte niet weinig daar hij voor het leven en de gezondheid van zijn heer bijzonder bezorgd was nog dansen waren hij geen woord van tegenspraak maar gij instilte zijn werk verrichten de andere schildknap volgde zijn voorbeeld mijn broeder sprak hij tot Sancho als onze meesters aan het vechten zijn mogen wij de handen niet stil in de schoot leggen maar moeten elkaar ook eens duchtig op het jak zitten dat reken ik helemaal onnodig aan het worden Sancho Panza ook heb ik nog nooit gehoord dat schildknapen van dolende ridders zich met de zaken van hun meesters bemoeiden en buitendien ben ik niet eens een zwaartrijk oh dat doet er niet toe zei de ander we vullen een paar lidden zakjes met kijstetisch en staan elkaar dan zo lang om de oren tot een van ons op de grond ligt kijk bij mijn vaders baard dat zou een grote gek uitwezen Ripsancho nee ik ben er niet opgesteld dat met mijn kop en schoenke bont en blauw bukt en toch moeten we op zijn minst een half uurtje lang samenvechten zei de vreemde schildknap en als je niet wilt dan zal ik je zo lang om de oren slaan tot je wel weer omslaat oh Ripsancho die nu poos werd als je me zo aankomt en je afranselen tot je geen raad meer weet volg mijn raad en zet je die verdereien uit de malen hersens zo niet dan zeg ik je dat het ongeluk dat er uit ontstaat op je eigen rekening komt goed goed bronden de ander het wordt gouddag en dan zullen we wel naden zien onderwijd begonnen de vogeltjes op de takken rond te huppelen en hun fijne stemmetjes te laten horen het mooi geroot vergulde de hemel en de daal wil in flonkeren op bloem en kruid neer nauwelijks echter die het licht van de dag de voorwerpen duidelijk onderscheiden of Sanjopanza zag een ding dat hem alle moed uit het hart dreef en hem een ridding over de rugjoeg en dat ding was de neus van zijn collega de vreemde schildknap die was van buiten sporen gegroten gebogen als een vogelsnap met vratten en puisten bezijd en vertoonde alle kleurschakkeringen van het zachte roze rood tot het donkerst beurper toe Sanjopanza kreeg zo'n schrik van die neus dat hij instilte besluit zich liever 200 oorvijgen te getrouwsten dan zich met zo'n vogelverschikker in een gevecht in te laten in tussendom ook donkie shots en tegenstander op die een stevig, gezet en grofgespiert man was Over zijn huiland loeg hij een wapenrok van het fijnste goudlaken die van onder tot boven de maanvormige spiegeltjes was bezet wat bij iedere beweging een zeer aardige vertoning maakte van zijn helm ging een zware pluimbosneer en zijn lands die tegen een boomgeleun stond was buitengewoon dik en lang en met een lange stalenpunt gewapend uit dit alles maakte donkie shot op dat hij een kloeken tegen een partij had te bekampen toch zijn bekende en beproefde heldenmoed geraakte daardoor geen ogenblik aan het wankelen veleerd daarder hij hem nog zijn door het visier van de helm bedekt aangezicht gezien te hebben opstaande voet ten kampstrijd uit en bij de ridders bestegen onmiddellijk hun rossen om de vereisste ruimte tot kampplaats te winnen maakte donkie shot een korte wending met zijn paard en de spiegelridder volgde zijn voorbeeld daar stond het daarop stonden zij tegen elkaar over en sloegen als om afscheid van de wereld te nemen nog eens een blik in het rond nu kreeg donkie shot ook een deus van de vreemde schildknaap in het oog en verwonderde zich er niet minder over dan Sancho die op ditzelfde ogenblik kwam aanlopen om zijn meester een dringende beden in het oor te vlousteren Heer ridder, zei hij, ik bid u in Szemersnaam mij op Ginzen-Kerkboom te helpen omdat ik daar uit de hoogte het vreselijk slagveld veel beter zou kunnen overzien Hoor Sancho, antwoordde donkie shot ik vrees dat geen enkel en alleen zo hoog op wilt armzalig lijf in veiligheid te brengen nu nu op de waarheid te zeggen wil ik wel bekennen dat ik wat bang voor dat gruwelijke neusweek ben betuigde de knap dat jij het mij zo'n schrik aan dat ik er onmogelijk dicht bij uithouden kan ja, die neus is een afgrijselijk ding zijn donkie shot en maakt dus maar goud dat je naar boven komt terwijl donkie shot zijn schildknaap een handje hielp om op een tak te komen spoorde de spiegelridder zijn ros aan om zijn vijand met knap en al over hoop te rennen daar nu even wel zijn hengst en knol van de gemeenste soort was bleef die midden in zijn vaart staan en kuchte en heigde zo erg barblik dat men wel bijkals medeleiden moest krijgen met het armen best dat van lamlendigheid haast niet op zijn vierpoten kon blijven staan donkie shot had in tussen zijn knap in veiligheid gebracht en door zulke verraderlijk gedrag in blakende grimmigheid ontstoken er was zoveel geweld te sporen dat hij in volle galop op de nu roerloos wachtende spiegelridder instof in het midden van de baan bereikte hij die en trof hij met zijn lands zo geweldig in de zijde dat de snoderman in de zader wachtelde en ruggelings over zijn paard heen ter aarde tuimelde de bonds die hij kreeg was zo geducht dat hij stokstijf bleef liggen en donkie shot zelf geloven dat hij zo dood als een pier was zodra Sanjo hem zag rollen die tijdens zich schillen weer uit zijn boom neerglijden en kwam toe op zijn heer die uit het bedaard van Rokinante was gestegen en zich over de gevelde spiegelridder neerbog hij gespte hem de helmband los om hem lucht te verschaffen en te zien of hij wist en wezen het dood was en aan schouden nu tot zijn allerovergrootste verbazing het aardige zicht van van de heer Sanson Carasco diezelfde van wie hij zijn vrije helm te geschenken had gekregen Sanjo, riep hij, Sanjo Pansa, kom hier en zie met eigen ogen welke kunstenaarijen die snowde tovenaars aanwenden om mijn zinnen te verbijsteren en met geheel op het dwalspoor te brengen Sanjo kwam reeds aanschokken en zette het bij die toehoep op een drafje weet je het zien van het bleke aangesicht van Carasco zoek hij van laute verbaasdheid in kruis en spoorde zijn hieraan om de gevallende maar zonder omslag het zwaar tussen de tanden in te boeren en zodoende aan die vervoelijke toverij opeens een einde te maken dat zou zo verkeerd niet wezen zijn donkjes shot en trok zijn zwaard om Sanjos Raad onverwijdt op te volgen eventueel werd hem dat nog bij tijdspelet door de schildknaap van de gevallende hoewel tans zonder zijn groot neuswerk op een drafje kwam aanlopen en al van verre bad en smeekte dat men zijn armen hier toch sparen mocht kijk wel toegestrengen heer lamenteerde hij die man daar aan uw voeten is wist en vast San Sol Carasco uw goede vriend en ik ben zijn alleronderdanigste knicht en dinaar maar waar heb je dat je neus gelaten voeg Sanjo Panza als ten top punt van verbazing toen hij dat schrikbarend uitsteksel niet meer ontdekte die heb ik hier in mijn zak antwoorden de knap en haalde een ding van beschilderd bordpapier voor de dag dat scheelde Sanjo toen hij de vreemde nu eens goed had aangekeken waarachtig het is door mij station men naast de buurman geen mens anders mijn oude vriend Sanjo Panza zij de ander en als je een weinig geduld hebt wil ik je van haver tot gort vertellen hoe en wacht hoe ik hierheen ben gekomen verzoek uw dapper heer echter eerst dat hij de armen spiegelreder geen kwaad doet want het is wezenlijk de heer San Sol Carasco zijn oude vriend in tussen was de spiegelreder weer tot bezinning gekomen en zodra donker shot dat bemerkte hielte hem de punt van zijn zwaard voor het gezicht en de sprak hij zei er een kind des doods zo ga niet ogenblikkelijk herkent dat mijn hoge gebiedster doet Chinea van Turbozo de uwe Casidea van Vandalia in schoonheid overtreft dat herken ik dat herken ik riep de spiegelreder die in zijn hulpeloze toestand natuurlijk niet zeer op zin gemak was Cidea is niet waardoel dood Chinea de schoenrie me los te binden laat mij in zee moest daar maar op staan gestrengen heer herkent eerst nog dat genu en nooit mij donker shot van La Mancha de ridder van de droevige figuur in twee gevechten hebt overwonnen en hoewel hij in uitzien weder op San Sol Carasco gelijkt toch niet die maar een heel anders uit dat herken ik dat herken ik riep de spiegelreder nogmaals in zijn dodelijke angst ik bekend alles wat gewild als ik mij eerst laat opstaan en mijn gekneusde ledematen vrijven die van de val dierelijk geleden hebben donker shot, staktans, bevredigt zinswaard op en hielp de overwonner ridder op de been beschaamd en neerslachtig trok deze met zijn schildknaap, zijn zweegs maar donker shot en Sancho Pansa vervolgden met viera harte hun tocht en de ridder van de droevige figuur bleef onverzettelijk bij zijn mening dat hij een vijand had geveld in een vijandig gezin tovenaar daar de rand om de overwinnaar te ergeren en de overwonnenden te redden in de persoon van Sankson Carasco wat veranderd dit was echtig gelijk wij uit Goede Bronn weten in geen delen het geval de overwonner dolende ridder was wel waarlijk Sankson Carasco die uitgetrokken was om donker shot van zijn dwaarsheid te genezen in de verwachting dat het hem niet zwaar zou vallen de dolende ridder te overwinnen tot een nieuwe tocht aangespoord en besloot de donker shot als hij een meester was geworden te gelasten stilletjes naar zijn dorp terug te keren en dat in de eerste twee jaren niet weer te verlaten nu echter was dat anders uitgevallen in plaats van Victorie te krijgen moest Sankson Carasco met hangende pootjes aftrekken hij pijnste opvraak maar donker shot was blij en welgemoed en had de overwonnen spoedig weer vergeten einde van hoofdstuk 16 hoofdstuk 17 van donker shot van La Mancha deze Librivox opname is vrij van auteursrechten opname door Bart de Leeuw donker shot van La Mancha door Mikwel de Cervantes Cavedra in de bewikking van Jeje Aargovenur hoofdstuk 17 het avontuur met de Leeuwen en andere wonderlijke reschidnessen de grote weg volgende haalde donker shot een goed gekleed met wie hij zich daar hij in alles wat niet met die dwaarsheid van het doelend ridderschap in verband stond een hoogst beschaft en verstandig man was op recht aangename wijze wisst te onderhouden hij geraakte zo met hem in het gesprek verdiept dat Sanjopanza die de helm zijn meesters aan zijn zadelklop droeg zich ongemerkt van zijn zijden verwijderen en bij enige herders vervoegen kon die op en na buurig veld hun schapen wijden hij wilde wat melk van hun vragen welop hij ontzettend belust was nog was Sanjo bij de herders toen donker shot toevallig opkeek en een kar in het oog kreeg die met vele bondervaantjes en wimpels versierd regelrecht op hem toekwam daar hij ter stond een nieuw avontuur vermoeden riep hij met luidestemmen naar Sanjo om zijn help de schildknaap vanaf met dringend roepen van zijn heer juist op het ogenblik toen hij van de herders een paar vette wekenkaarsjes had gekocht in de haast wist hij niet waar hij die bergen zou en daar hij zijn reeds betaald had wilde hij ze toch liefst niet in de steek laten in deze verlegenheid viel zijn oog op de helm die hem opeens op een gelukkige inval bracht hij stopte de kaarsjes in zijn meesters ijzeren hoofdteksel hij kwam nu haastig aandraven om te vernemen wat de donker shot van hem verlangde geef mij mijn helm Sanjo riep de dolende ridder vol oog geduld mijn helm hier haast u want nu staat ons een avontuur te wachten we van het later nageslag nog gewagen zo driftig rukte hij Sanjo die nog geen tijd had had om zijn kaarsjes in veiligheid te brengen de helm uit de hand en drukte die zonder te bemerken dat er iets in was stevig op zijn hoofd daar nu de kaars nog vers was en door de zwaarten van de ijzeren helm niet weinig geperst werd zo begon natuurlijk de vettige melkpap al spoedig over donker shots haar gezicht en baard neer te druppelen en het hem niet weinig lastig te maken Sanjo riep en ontstelt Sanjo wat is dat hier het is alsof bij de hersenen gaan smelten of het mij schemerachtig voor de ogen wordt of het gulden zweet mij van alle kanten uitbrekt geef mij wat om mij af te drogen want die bijtende zweettropels zullen mij anders teken blind maken zonder een woord te zeggen rijkte Sanjo de ridder een vuile vettige doek toe en was in zijn hart maar blij dat donker shot in zijn ongeduld de eigenlijke aard van het lastige zweet veronderzocht de ridder merkte in tussen toch onraad en nam na zich zowat afgeveegde hebben de helm af om zijn zweet in de schede oeins te betasten en toen hij nu aan zijn vingers dat witte kaasdeeg zag en daar aan rook begreep hij het gantse geval en maakte zich ontzettend driftig schanderlijk verraderlijke laaghartige en argelistige knap barste hij los het is kaas wat je daarin gestopt hebt kaas bij het leven bij een hoge dame doet cinéa van tobouzo als schoon Sanjo Pansa eerst geducht schrikte herstelde hij zich toch spoedig en kreeg zijn gewone onbeschaamtheid terug als het werkelijk kaas is Edelen heer sprak hij, geef die mij dan want op kaas ben ik dol schoon nee, de duivel mag haar eten want die alleen kan ze daarin getoverd hebben jij zal toch niet geloven Edelen ridder dat ik ooit de stoutheid zou hebben uw helm te verontreinigen de hemel mogen mij voor zulke heilig schrenners behoeden misschien vervolgd mij en u een snode tovenaar die de kaas er alleen in deed om u te vertoornen en mij daardoor een drachtslaag te bezorgen maar ik ben zeker dat hem dit mij als zijn list niet gelukken zal want mijn Edelen heer is veel te verstandig om niet in te zien dat ik de kaas als ik die namelijk gehad had honderd maar liever in mijn maag dan in uw helm zou hebben geboren dat komt mij wel waarschijnlijk voor die shot, nu weer ten volle tevreden gesteld zonder zich aan het verwonderd gezicht te stooren van de heer die hem gezelschap hield reinigde hij zich ten volle van de vette gebrij zette toen zijn helm weer op stond overreind in de beugels keek naar zijn zwaart velde de lands en riep volkamp lust en moed komen nu wie wil hier sta ik en voel de kracht in mij om het zelfst tegen de baarlijke duivel op te nemen onderwijl naderde de met vijntjes versierde kar en het bleek nu dat er niemand bij was dan de voerman met zijn muilezos en een man die op het voorste bankje zat donkie shot plaatste zich toen midden in de weg en vroeg wie zijn geen mensen waar gaat geen heen wat voor wagen is dat wat heb je daarin en wat moeten die vlaggetjes daar beduiden heer antwoorde de voerman die kar is mijn eigendom en dan zijn twee geweldige leeuwen in aan zijn de majestijd de koning te geschenken zijn die vijntjes beduiden alleen dat de inhoud de kar's konings eigendom is zijn de leeuwen groot en sterk vroeg donkie shot zeker edele heer antwoorden de man ze zijn groter en sterker dan nog ooit nog uit afrikanen en spanje zijn gekomen ik heb al veel leeuwen gezien maar hun is gelijk er nog niet hier in het voorstehoek zit de leeuw en in dat andere de leeuw in ze zijn nu ontzettend hongerig daar nog geen voor hebben gehad en ik verzoek dus dat de heren uit de weg gaan en ons doorlaten zodat wij spoedig naar een plaats komen waar vlezers te krijgen ik voor zo'n paar ellendige leeuwen uit de weg gaan vroeg donkie shot met minnachting zie me aan of ik de man daarnaar ben gauw afgestapt goede man en de hokken geopen zodat de basis daar buiten kunnen komen hier midden op het openveld wil ik met het vechten en hun tonen wie donkie shot van la mancha de ridder van de droevige figuur is kom af Serik en voor de dag met de twee in spijt van al de tovenaars die ze mij zeker in de weg hebben gezonden de vreemde heer zag donkie shot met grote ogen aan en meen de zeker dat het hem eensklappse in het hoofd geslagen was in zijn bitterer angst en benauldheid wende Sancho Panza zich tot hem en smeekte hem in roerende bewoordigen althans een poging te doen om de ridder van zijn roekeloze onderneming terug te houden en de godsdaam smeekte hij maakt toch dat mij meestal zich niet met dat wilde gedier te inlaat dat ons zeker in stukken zou scheuren maar wil u heer dan wezenlijk die dieren bevechten vroeg de vreemde is het dan geheel razend en dol dol en razend niet maar in zo'n moeder dat er geen houden aan is verzekerde Sancho nu, dan wil ik me best doen om ongelukken voor te komen zij de vreemde en keerde zich tot donkie shot die de leeuwenhoeder nog altijd drong om de hokken te openen en de dieren vrij te laten heer dolende ridder spakheid tot donkie shot voor zover mij bekend is moeten alle helden slechts zulke avonturen bestaan die hun kans laten op levens behoud door zich met andere dingen in te laten verraden zij meer dwaarheid dan kracht en verdienen geen lof mijn berisping laat dus pittiku deze leeuwen met rust zij komen aan zijn majesteit de koning toe en worden niet ongestraft aangeroegd mijn beste heer antwoordde donkie shot bemoei jij u met uw hazen en patrijzen en laat mij mijn werk doen gelijk dat mij goed dunkt de kamp met deze leeuwen behoort daar toe en ik verzoek u dat jij u daar niet verder mee bemoeid de heer zweeg daar heb ik greep dat zij spreken toch niet baten terwijl donkie shot zich opnieuw tot de leeuwenhoeder wende en sprak jij schanderlijke en plicht vergeten dinaar als jij niet op staande voet gehoorzaamd zwerig dat ik u met deze lands aan uw hok vast zal nagelen nu de man zag dat het gehaar als de ridder ernst was durfde hij zich niet langer verzetten en zei ieder hier tegenwoordig kan getuigen dat ik alleen door geweldbegedwonger geworden de kooi daar leeuwen te openen en het eigenom des konings op het spel te zetten alle schade en alle onheil dat daaruit ontstaan kan gaat mij niet aan maar alles moet naar billijkheid en recht de dekking van deze ridder komen maak plaats mijn heren percht u voordat ik de grendels open schuif hier keerde de voerman zich tans tot donkie shot vergun al tans dat ik mijn muilees als afspan en in veiligheid breng als de leeuwen mijn dieren ombrengen ben ik voor altijd mijn kostvinding kwijt gezegd een dom mens riep de ridder verstoord deed jij dat ik aan de leeuwen tijd zal laten om uw dieren aan te vallen maar gezot zien dat je nutteloos werk gedaan hebt niet tegenstaande deze verzekering span de de man in aller eil zijn trek vee af en gedurende die tijd trachten de vreemde heren ridder nogmaals tot andere gedachten te brengen deze bleef echter onverzettelijk bij zijn opzet voor harde wil geen niet getuigen zijn van de kamp die ik hier op het openveld beginnen zou spoor dan uw schimmel aan en maak u uit de voeten zei hij tans deed ook Sancho Panza een goed woord die meekte met tranen in de ogen zijn meester toch van zijn voornemen af te zien dit avontuur is zo vreselijk zei hij dat al wat wij reeds beleefd hebben en maar kinderspel bij was hier is geen toverij of hek schrijn in het spel maar alles is wist en wezenlijk ernst ik heb tussen de ijzeren tradis door in het hock gekeken en daar de klauwen van de leeuw gezien die ontzettend lang en breed zijn het is een dier zo groot als een berg hier uur benauwdheid zal het nog groter maken dan de halve wereld zijn donker shot maak maar dat gewicht komt Sancho mocht ik bij de zware strijd die mij te wachten staat het leven laten spoed u dan naar mijn gebiedster doet Chinea van Torbozo en maakt haar bekend met mijn dood deze worden begrepen allen dat mijn donker shot niets meer was aangevangen en dat men hem stil zijn gang moest laten gaan zo dreef dan de voermans en muilen erzels op zee bracht de vreemde hier zijn schimmel in veiligheid en zorgde Sancho Panza dat hij met zijn groutje op eerbiedige afstand kwam en toen gebote ridder op dreigende toon dat men door hocken zou openen zien de dat alle mensen en dieren buiten gevaar waren bracht de leeuwel hoe de donker shot nogmaals onder het oog welke een roekeloos onderneming hij voor had en waarschuwde hem ernstig zich toch niet zo moet wildig in gevaar te begeven donker shot luisterde daar echter niet naag terwijl de mantanden en nog steeds tijd zocht te winnen overleerde hij of hij niet beter zou zijn de kamp te voet in plaats van de paard te beginnen en besloot eindelijk tot het eerste omdat hij vreesde dat rokinanten bij het zien van het vreeselijke rofdeer schuw en wild zou worden hij sprong dus van het paard weer op zijn lands op de grond dekte zijn borst met het schild trad met ontbloodschwaard voor de deur van het hock en bevalt zijn ziel door Chinea van Tobozo aan toen de leeuwenhoeder nu zag dat donker shot ten volle bedaard en beraden was en dat hij hem dus wel zijn zin diende te geven rukte hij de deur van het eerste hock waarin de leeuw zat wagenwijd open de leeuw, werkelijke dier van buiten gewone grote en schrik inboezemende gestalten keerde zich om in zijn kooi schof zijn voorpoten vooruit en rekte zich daarop ontsloot hij zijn ontzettende mui spalkte die wijd open en gaapte zeer majestuurs vervolgens tak hij de bloedrode tong uit likte zich de ogen trapt met langzame tread vooruit stak zijn geweldige kop buiten het hock liet zij gloeiende ogen naar alle zijde rondrollen en nam een houding aan die iedereen met ontzetting zou vervuld hebben donker shot week echter niet terug maar nam het vreselijke dier kalm en bedaard op en wensde zelfs dat het dadelijk van de wagen springen en de kamp met hem beginnen mocht na echter het landschap en zijn uitdager een poos bedaard te hebben aangekeken schudde de deel langzaam zijn kop en draaide zich om donker shot terugtoekerend met de grootste onverschilligheid strikte hij zich vervolgens op de planken uit en scheelde zich om niets ter wereld meer te bekommeren ja, gaan op, riep donker shot die leeuwen hoedertoe stoot, sla, schop terregens zarm tot hij uit zijn hock komt ja, ja, dat zal ik wel uit mijn hersens laten, riep de man als ik hem aanraakte zou hij mij allereerst beet pakken en dat is een ding waarvoor ik hartelijk bedank ver genoeg u met wat jij gedaan hebt, heer ridder en wees verzekerd dat het meer is dan één mensen kind u zou durven nadoen stel u niet voor de tweedemaal bloot en bedenk dat jij alles gedaan hebt wat men van een held kan verlangen de deur staat open de leeuwen zijn uitgedaard geen staat tot de kamp bereid dan is aan hem de schande en onheer en aan u de zegen en de roem dat is waar riep donker shot uit sluit de deur weer toe vriend en geef mij de getuigenis dat ik werkelijk alles gedaan heb wat mijn geoorloofd was jij hebt de leeuw de deur open gezet ik heb hem opgewacht maar hij is niet gekomen eindelijk heb ik nog een poos gewacht en hij is weer niet verschenen maar hij is naar de verste hoek van zijn kooi gekropen en heeft zich daar lav hartig neergelegd hij is niet nodig om in dapperheid in volle glans te vertonen en hij mocht dus vrij de deur sluiten terwijl ik onze gevluchten vrienden wil terugroepen omdat ze uit uw mond het verhaal van mijn daden horen de wachter sloot het hoek weer toe en donker shot bond de doek waarmee hij de kaas van zijn gezicht had gewist aan zijn lands om daarmee de anderen terug te roepen tegelijk verrieven zijn stem en riep Sancho, Sancho dat het wijd over het veld klonk Sancho Panza van Namdiroep keerde zich om zag het witte feintje en zei ik laat mijn leven vullen als mijn heer de wilde beesten niet overwonnen heeft want zie, hij wengt ons en zijn vaan wappert in de wind ook de anderen zagen het gegeven teken en hun harten die tot nog toe met angst vervuld waren geweest werden gerust ze keerden naar de kart terug en waren zeer verlangend de toedracht in de afloop van de gewaagde kamp te vernemen Span u een meilezers weer voor riep Don Quixote voermand toe Span ze voor en vervolg ongehindertoe reis en jij Sancho geeft de leerwelhoeder twee goudgulders tot vergoeding omdat hij zich zo lang heeft opgehouden die goudgulders wil ik hem wel geven antwoorden de schuldknaap maar zeg me eerst wat er van de leerwel geworden is zijn ze al dood of hebben ze er het leven afgebracht wend u tot deze man sprak Don Quixote vol trotsheid hij zal u berichten hoe de zaak is afgelopen Sancho talmde hier dan ook niet mee en de leerwelhoeder vertelde uit voorrichtig gehele geschiedenis er kon niet genoeg roemen hoe uitstekend dapper en heldhaftig de ridder zich in dit geval gedragen had de deel scheen reeds bij zijn eerste verscheiding door schrik aangetast en was, in plaats van de aangeboden kamp aan te nemen laf hartig naar de verste hoek van zijn hok teruggeweken en daar hij de leerwelhoeder, de dappere donkus op nu gezegd had, dat het roekelo in de neeuw nog verder te tegen had de ridder, hoewel ongarde hem eindelijk vrijheid gegeven de deur van het hok weer dicht te doen wat zegt gedaan van Sancho vroeg Don Quixote vol vierheid daar ziet hij nu uit dat alle betoveringen tegen ware dapperheid en echte heldenmoed geen zier kunnen uitrichten Sancho haalde stilsweigend de schouders op en stopte de leerwelhoeder de twee goudgilders in de hand wanneer deze laatste beloofde zot overal te zullen uitbazuiden en zelfs te zorgen dat die zijn de majeste uit de koning ter oren kwam goed, dat mocht jij doen sprak Don Quixote en als de koning u naar mijn naam hoort vragen kunt geantwoorden dat het de leerwelhoeder is die de stoute daad gewaagd heeft voortaan namelijk wil ik een overout heilig gebruik volgend deze bijnaam voeren en daarin tegen die van ridder van de droevige figuur afleggen dat hebben voorbij reeds veel al gedaan en ik wil hun doorluchtig voorbeeld volgen de kar reed nu weg en Don Quixote vervolgde met zijn klein gezelschap de vroeger ingeslagenweg naar Saragossa het duurde nu niet lang als ze kwamen een beroemde grot het zo gedaan de Hoel van Montesinos voorbij waarvan allerlei wonderbare dingen verteld worden en de vreemde heer maakte daar Don Quixote opmerkzaam op daar stond betoonde deze grote lust het inwendige te bezien omdat men er niet anders in kon komen dan door zich aan lange touwen in de diepte te laten neerzakken en dan zou ik ervoor in de hel komen toch moet ik de grot bezien verklaar de Don Quixote en reed regelrecht op het naaste doorbaan om daar te overnachten en zich van de vreiste touwen en strikken te voorzien hij kocht ervan tot een lengte van 100 faam en begaf zich de andere dag met de vreemde heer en met Sanchopanza naar de gevaarlijke plaats na de middag de twee uren kwamen ze daar aan en vonden de toegang tot de grot vrij breed ruim en ze dachten weinig door donen en andere struikgewas bedekt en verdonkerd ze stegen af en Don Quixote werd vast en stevig aan een touw gebonden om zonder verwijl in de diepte te worden neergelaten Heer Sanchopanza terwijl ze daarmee bezig waren Heer, bezin eer jij begint en bedenk nog eens goed wat jij doet nog niemand heeft het eind van de spelong bereikt en niemand dwingt dus ook een gevaar voor stuk te ondernemen blijf stil het eens hier boven en neem goede raad van mij aan Houd de mond Sancho en bind bij de touwen vast antwoordde Don Quixote op deze welgemeende waarschuwing juist zo'n onderneming die nog niemand gelukt is past voor mij de schildklaap zweeg en niet verdrietig te lip hangen toen u echt de Don Quixote stevig was vast gebonden kneelde hij neer riep de krachtaardige bescherming en dood Sinea in en naderde toen de afgrond waarin hij zich wilde laten neerzakken voordat hij aan de rand kwam moest hij echter met zijn zwaart zich in weg door het struikgewasbanen dat voor de ingang der grot wedig was opgeschoten door het kraken en breken der takken veroorzaakte gerucht juich ene ontzettende menig te raven kraaien uilen en vleermuizen op die tot hier toe in ongestoorde rust in de grot genesteld hadden op Don Quixote los dat hij daardoor overhoop werd geworpen en zolang hij was op de grond kwam te liggen ieder ander dan onze onverschokken ridder zou deze omstandigheid als een noodlotig voerteken hebben beschouwd door hem versterkte zij sterkt in zijn heldhaftig voornemen toen al dat vladderend hoofdgedier te zich in uitweg had gebaan spog hij in de afgrond neer de vreemde heer en Sanchopanza via de langzaamde lijn en Don Quixote verdween al draa de diepte de hebel behoede u geit bronk en siraat van de doelende ridderschap rips Sanchopanza hem na daal neer, gei hoofd van ijzer hart van staal en arm van metaal mocht gei behouden het dag dicht weer aan schouwen en van gei daar in de afgrond niet heel veel te zien zult krijgen onderwijls geel de Don Quixote voortduren dat ze nog maar meer taal zouden vieren tot in het eind het geluidszender stem niet langer tot hen opstij gekom ten laatste liep de lijn echter toch ten einde en nu wachten zij een half uur voordat ze haar weer optrokken toen ze hiermee begonnen, schenen zij hun echter zo licht en onbeswaard toe dat ze er vrezen moesten dat Don Quixote zich had losgemaakt en in de diepte was achter gebleven wat Sancho tranen met tuitendet schrijen en zich al z'n beste reppen om toch maar spoedig zeker te zijn van de zaak opeens echter, toen reeds tachterfarm van de lijn was ingehaald en ze waren last en bemerkte al spoedig dat Don Quixote tegen de vermoede toch nog aan het taal ging zij trokken en trokken met al hun kracht en volblijdschap riep Sancho naar beneden welkom, welkom gestrengen heer we waren al bang dat wij uw edel aangesicht nooit meer aan schouwen zouden Don Quixote antwoorde niet op deze vriendelijke toeroep en toen ze hem eindelijk goed en wel boven hadden zagen zij dat zijn ogen gesloten waren en dat hij in vaste slaap was ze leerde hem op de grond bevrijd hem van zijn banden en hoopten dat hij nu vanzelf wel weer wakker zou worden dit gebeurde echter niet en ze moesten hem lang knijpen en schudden rollen en omkeren voordat hij ten laatste weer tot bezinning kwam de ogen opsloeg zich rikten en strikten en in alles deed als iemand die uit een zware droom ontwakt verschikt kijk hij rond en een rilling diep hem over de leden toen hij zich weer op de bovenwereld verplaatst en de blauwe hemel boven zijn hoofdzag oh mijn vrienden sprak hij op klagen de toon waarom heb je mij aan de zoetste toestand ontdrukt waarin ik ooit in mijn leven heb mogen verkeeren een hemels aan minne gezichten bekaanschoud en nu eerst zie ik in dat alle genietingen van dit ondermaanse slechts nestereien en kinderspel zijn dat zij verdwijnen als een schaduw en verwelken gelijk de bloemen des welts wakker loodheer wat heb je daar dan wel in de hel te zien gekregen vroeg Sancho een hel noemt je dat riep Don Quixote oh noem het niet zo het is de schoonste plaats die op eiden te vinden is luister toe wat ik zal vertellen jaaa na de hand met alle genoegen antwoordde Sancho Panza maar nu blaf ik van honger en moet eerst mijn arm er maar wat tevreden stellen Don Quixote zij hier niet tegen en begon om een hartig baal gesteekt had het verhaal van zijn avonturen in de onderaartse gods ongeveer 12 faam diep in de kloof open zich recht zijn gewelf als een hal waar wel een grote koets met zes paarden zou kunnen keren door enige spleten die tot de oppervlakte de aardereiken drinkt daar een flauw en schemerachtig licht in door dit gewelf ontdekte ik toen ik het hangen en bungelen aan de lijn al moe was waarom ik besloot er binnen te treden en er een korte post te rusten ik riep je toe dat jij met het vieren van het touw moest ophouden maar daar ging mij niet schend te verstaan rode ik het touw al naar mate het mijn naak kwam tot een tros op en ging toen daarop zitten om mij in gepeins te verdiepen ik overlegde hoe ik het aanvangen moest om de diepte van de afgrond te bereiken daar ik nu niemand meer had die mij neer laten kon en onder dat denken over viel mij opeens de diepste slaap het duurde even wel niet langer een grote wijde schooner en liefelijker dan ik ooit nog met mijn ogen had aan schout ik dacht de dromen en betaste hoofd, borst en handen om mij van mijn waken de toestand te voller te overtuigen uit alle tekens maakte ik op dat werkelijk de slaap van mij geweken was en dat geen droom, geen fantasie geen drogbeeld van het verhitte bloed mij misleiden nadat ik mij ten volle van mijn waken overtuigd had een prachtig koninklijk paleis in het oog welks dak en wanden uit glinsterende cristallen schelen te bestaan de vleugeldeuren vlogen open en nu tratten eerwaardig met een langslepend gewaad gekleed grijzaard te voorschijn hij kwam op mij toe, goed te mij heel vriendelijk, sprak me aan en vroeg of hij mij de wonderen van het betoverde paleisbord vertonen ik boog bij dankbaar tenteken van toestemming en volgde hem in het slot door wijde portale gingen wij gingen en onmetelijk grote zalen overal wij kwamen stonden prachtige monumenten uit goud en diamanten en op ieder prijkte in cristallen standbeeld van meer dan levensgroter het waren de grafsteden de overleden doelende ridders die zich door deugd en dapperheid beroemd gemaakt hadden en de standbeelden stelden hen voor gelijk ze er bij hun leven hadden uitgezien daar zag ik Amades van Gallien en Roland en Dorandarte de spiegelde ridderschap en de andere welke namen ik niet weet op te noemen toen ik mij met het aanzielden deze helden lang genoeg verquikt had brachtig rijzaard mij in een heerlijke lusthof waaruit mij de geur der kostelijke bloemen en gewassen tegensloeg en die met allerlei kunstwerken beelden, grotten en fontijnen koninklijk versierd was en hier zag ik iets dat mijn gehele ziel in zoete verrukking bracht namelijk ik zag mijn door luchtige gebiedsten de aanminnige jongvrouwer doel Sinea van Tobozo in een invouder gevaat als herderin gekleed en begeleid door twee gesluieerde hoofddames verlustigde zij zich in de lalen van de betove de lusthof lachte en schertte en deed nu in ons pommen die mij door hun hoogte verbaasdelen staan de grijzaard pak mij aan en zei zie, in zulke nederige en armoedige gedaan ter wandel toe schone tans op aarde rond maar wees getroost een boze tofenaar heeft daar slechts voor korte tijd veranderd en eens zult ge haar in de volle glorie haar verheven schoonheid aanschouwen op dat geen zin mocht wat glans haar dan om stralen zal wil ik u haar beeldenis tonen gelijk die haar natuurlijke gedaante volkomen waar een getrouw teruggeeft hij wenkte met de vinger en ogenblikkelijk verdwenend om hulselde herderin en doet Sinea zelf verstond van aanminnigheid stralende voor mij haar schoonheid overweldigde mij dusdanig dat ik een luide kreet van verrukking uitstiet en daarop onmachtig dierstochten wat verder met mij gebeurde weet ik niet ik kwam eerst weer tot bezinning toen ge mij met geweld aan mijn zoete droomen ontdrukt het nee dat is te wonderbalijk om waar te kunnen wezen ripsan chopansa uit ge moet noodzakelijk gedroomd hebben of een of andere boze tofenaar om uw ziel te verstrikken en nu naar de afgrond is verderst te locken spreek niet zo soundshow zei donkig shot alles wat ik gezien heb, heb ik met gezonde wakende zinnen gezien de tijd zal nog eens openbaar maken dat ik geen titel of iota bezijde de waarheidssprak onderwij het bestegen ze hun dieren weer keerde de wondengrot terug toe en ging hun nachtverblijf zoeken in een herberg waar diezelfde avond een poppencomedie zou worden vertond de directeur van het spel een reisend genie wou donkig shot in zijn twee geleiders plaatsen aan kreeg zijn geld daarvoor en liet hierop het gordijn naar boven gaan donkig shot staarde met verwondering op de poppen die door onzichtbare draaden bestuurd zich op de natuurlijkste wijze bewogen met gespadde aandacht volgde hij de loop der voorstelling die hoofdzakelijk in een gevecht tussen christinnen en moren bestond de christinnen werden verslagen en de moren vervolgde hun vlucht in de vijanden tot onder de torens van het versterkte stads toen donkig shot zag dat de heidenen hier nog eens zijn aanval op de armen christinnen deden steeg het bloed hem naar het hoofd en oordeelde hij het niet meer dan billig dat hij de zwakkere partij te hulp kwam houdt op houdt op riep hij driftig op springend het heidense poppenvolk toe vervoerd mijn geloofsbroeders niet langer of gekrijgt het met mij te doen onder deze haastig uitgestoten worden trok hij zijn zwaard was met een wip op het kleine toneel en begon met ongehoorde woede op de onschuldige poppen in te houden sommige trapte hij als een pannenkoek plat andere sloeg hij de kop af nog andere verminkte hij op delen manier kortom hij zou een gruwelijk bloedbad hebben aangericht in die de poppen in plaats van leder en werk van vlees en bloed waren geweest bij het zien van deze verwoesting schoten ontstelde toneel directeur toe viel de verbolgen ridder te voet en smeekte hem met tranen in de ogen zijn armen levenloze schepsels toch te sparen Don Quixote even wel luisterde daar niet naar en zou de arme poppenman zelf het hoofd hebben afgeslagen in dit deze zich niet met alle snelheid uit de voeten had gemaakt de slagendeshidders vielen als haakostenen bij een donderbuy in minder dan een kwartier tijd zat hij het ganze toneel tot splinters geslagen al de toeschouwers die hem voorrazend en dol hielten op de vlucht gejaagd en zelfs Sanchopanza tot de stomme bekentenis genootzaakt dat zij meester wel al veel gekke dingen had vertoond maar nooit nog zo gekke stuk als nu dit hier eerst toen het heilendse leger de volle neerlaag had geleden kwam Don Quixote enigszins tot bedaren, leund de heigend op zijn zwaart en zij nu mocht ik nog wel eens iemand horen zeggen dat een dolend ridder een onderding in de wereld is was ik hier niet gekomen dan was een gans christenleger vernietigd geweest terwijl nu de snode heidenen tot de laatste man toe verslagen liggen en daarom zeg ik ere, lof, roem en glorie der dolende ridderschap ja ja dat is goed en wel riep de poppenman die zich nu ook weer kwam vertonen maar in alle gevallen moet hij mij de schade betalen die ik in mijn moedwillig heb toegevoegd wat dan betalen vroegdonkjesot verwonderd wat heb ik u dan bedoven hoe, dat weet jij niet vroegdmeester Pedro, de eigenaar van het poppenspel, ziet gedaan niet het armzalig overschot van mijn poppen die jij met uw zwaart in gruisers en splinters hebt geslagen poppen vroegdonkjesot poppen heb ik vernieuwd ja, waar ik, het zijn poppen en geen mensen van vlees en bloed daar ziet men weer hoe ik door die snode tovenaars vervolgd word ze verblinden mijn oog zodat ik de poppen voor levende mensen moest aanzien en dat ik alles wat gespeeld werd voor echte werkelijkheid hield maar wat te doen daar ik nu eens uit twaling zo groot schade aangericht heb is het ook mijn plicht die ten volle te vergoeden en ik zal dus mijzelf tot alle kosten veroordelen overleg meester Pedro welke som u als schadeloosstelling toekomt en laat u die door mijn schildknaap Sanchopanza uitbetalen meester Pedro boog dankend voor de grootmoedige ridder die nu niet weinig beschamt zijn slaapkamer opzocht Sanchopanza echter moest de beurs trekken en voor het waarsheden van zijn heer een aanzienlijke zon betalen einde van hoofdstuk

Guillain-Gouverneur hoofdstuk 18 de betoverde boot en de Schone Jaar-Geres de volgende morgen zet de Don Quixote en Sanchopanza na van een reisgenoot tot zover de vreemde heer fiendschappelijk afscheid hebben genomen hun tocht verder voort ze kwamen aan de rivier de Ebro welks helder doorzichtig water de doodende leeuwenridder uitstekend behaagde hij rijdt langzaam langs de oevervoerd deed Sancho al de schoonheden van het landschap opmerken en ze wegen eerst stil toen hij opeens een kleine boot bemerkte die dicht aan de stroom aan een boomstam vastlag en nog riemen, nog zeil nog anders geepstaag bevatten hij kreeg recht en links uit en toen hij nergens in mens ontdekte steeg hij van Rokinante en bevast Sancho insgelijks van zijn groutje te komen en beide dieren ergens in de nabijheid vast te binden Sancho Panza vroeg wat al gebeuren zou en kreeg dat antwoord weet dat deze boot mij oproept en mij uitnodigt haar te bestijgen en met haar mee te varen om een of andere in noodzijnde ridder of verogelijk de jongfrouw te hulp te komen bind dus de dieren vast en kom mee, want zo waar ik leef ik wilde tot mij gekomen hoepstem volgen en mijn zonderschroom in deze bark inschepen hier antwoorden Sancho Panza ik laat mij hangen als dat niet weer een nieuwe gekheid van u is de boot is volstrekt niet betoofend maar komt zeker aan de een of andere visser in deze omtrek toe waar men de beste vissen van de wereld kan vangen die tegenstaande dit is het mijn plichter te volgen en ik zal dus bij weer gehoorzamen gestrengen hier zo sprak Sancho en bonte dieren vast wat moet ik nu verder doen vroeg hij in de boot stappen antwoorden donk in shot en als wij daar in zitten wijden we het touw door dat hij vast houdt en geven ons aan ons lot over met deze woorden sprong hij er zelf in en Sancho volgde hem gewillig het touw werd doorgesteden en de boot gedeed langzaam van de oever weg pas echter werden ze 10 passen van de oever of Sancho Panza begon als een popelblad te trillen en erg bang voor zijn eigen dier bij ik te worden zijn angst nam toe toen hij zijn ezel toe hoorde balken en Rokinantes bewegingen zag zijn meester te volgen heer het hoef ik geridder, zei hij hoor maar hoe jammerlijk mijn goudjes scheelt en hoe Rokinantes daar te trippelen om ons na te lopen die arme arme schepsel ze zullen ons misschien nooit weer te zien krijgen bij deze woorden begon hij zo hard te huilen en te krijten dat donk in shot ernstig boos werd gij onnooselig hals waar zeid je dan toch eigenlijk bang voor riep hij verstoord waarom zet ik eens om keel op wie heeft kwaad tegen ons in de zin houd de mond kerel en wees verzekerd dat ik je een stoot geef en hals overkop in het water doet tuimelen daar Sancho wist waardoor zijn heer in zijn drift in staat was hield hij op met huilen droogde zijn tranen en vertrok geen gezicht meer in tussendreef de boot in het midden van de stroom voort en streek door de lichte golfslag voortgestuurd met stelle vaart langs de oefens opeens ontdekte donkie shot drijvende watermolens die in het midden van de rivier lagen en pas hadden die in het oog gekregen of hij riep driftig uit zie daar vriend, daar is de stad of de burgt waar de bedarre de ridder op mij wacht of een gevangen jongvrouw naar verlossing uit de dikke kerkerwanden hecht wat drommel ziet je daar weer gestrengen heer riep Sancho Panza verdrietig het tovenaar moet u opnieuw de ogen verblinden want die dingen daar op het water zijn eenvoudig een paar molens en koeren wordt gemalen zwijg Sancho beelde de donkie shot al lijken het op het oog ook al molens toch zijn ze dat niet en ik weet zeer goed hoe het daarmee gelegen is in tussen werd de boot door de stroom met snelheid op de molens aangedreven de molenaars die haar zagen aankomen en vreesden dat zij tussen de schepraderen mocht geraken schoot de eilings in menigde toe en greepen naar lange stokken om haar tegen te houden en daar zei haar in hun met mail bestoven werkpakken vrij wonderlijk uitzagen meende hij dadelijk en voertegen hem uitgezond de vijandige geesten en spookgedaamten te moeten houden stomme rikken schreeuwde in tussen de molenaars knerts wij wilde je dan toch naartoe wilde je hier met geweld verzuipen of de molenraden verpletterd worden ziet geweld Sancho mag de donkie shot vol zelf voldoening ziet geweld dat wij nu de plaats bereiken waar als gewonelijk de sterkte van mijn arm moet blijken zie wat de menigde schelmen en spitspoefen op ons aankomen zie wat lelijke bekken ze trekken die monsters die spookgedrochten maar wacht, ik zal haar wel tot hun plicht brengen of anders van het aardrijk verdelgen en zich in de boot hoog oprichtend begon hij het molenaars volk met harde woorden te bedreigen oh gij vuig, ontaard en nietswaardig volk schreeuwde hij hen toe laat zonder verwijl de gevangenenvrij die gij in uw ellende kasteel hebt opgesloten van wat stand, rang en geslacht ze dan ook zijn mogen weet dat ik donkie shot van la mancha ben de dolende leeuwenridder en de beschermer en het schild van alle ellendigen en onderdrukten met deze woorden trok hij zijn zwaard en schermde er wild mee in de lucht rond de molenaars hoorde zijn geschreeuw wel maar kon er geen woord van verstaan en hielde zich met een stokken gereed om de boot tegen te houden die reeds in de stroming geraakte die met vreeselijke snelheid op de molenraden toeschoot bij het zien van het gevaar wierp Sancho Panza zich vol angst op de knieën neer donkie shot daar en tegen hiel met zijn zwaard op de stokken naar molenaars in en beweekte daardoor dat de boot in plaats van tegengehouden te worden omsloeg en alle twee, ridder en knicht hals over kop in het water tuimelden nu kon donkie shot wel zwemmen als een eend toch al zijn bekwaarmheid zou hem in zijn tegenwoordige toestand en bij de zwaar te zijn een wapenrusting niets gebaat hebben en die de molenaars hem niet waren te hulp gesporren ze haalde hem en Sancho uit het water en sleepte hen zo nat als gewassen poedels op het drogen onderwijl kwamen ook de vissers wie hem de boot toe behoorde toe en begonnen toen zij deze door de molenraden verbreiselt vonden een leven als een oordeel te maken zij verlangde van donkie shot dat die haar betalen en hun alle schade vergoeden zou de nu anders in bitter doefig figuren maken de druipnatte ridder die zijn koelbloedigheid geen ogenblik verloren had, zij met de grootste bedaardheid dat hij met genoeg de boot betalen zou, mits ben onverwijld de personen wilde in vrijheid stellen welke men in het slot gevangen hield welke gevangenen en wat kasteel meent je dan, vroeg een van de molenaars knechten, moeten we u dan de mensen uitleveren die ons hier koeren te malen brengen domme vent donkie shot stond een poos als voor het hoofd geslagen genoeg, mompelde hij eindelijk in zijn baard genoeg, het zou dwaarzaad zijn hier verstandige woorden te verspillen zoveel merk ik wel al dat twee boze dovenaars elkaar hier moeten hebben tegengeweekt de een zond mij de boot toe de ander gooide haar om ver daar wil niets tegen te doen en ik moet mij wel onderwerpen en zich na de molen stoel keerend riep hij met luiderstemmen arme mensen en ongelukkige vrienden die daar in een donkere kerkere weg kwijden moeten schrijft het aan mijn boos gestermte en aan kwaadwillige tovenaars toe dat ik u niet kan helpen en redden een ander ridder moet komen en u bijstaan dat ik tegen onzichtbare bovenaars de wezers niet vermachte kampen hierop keerde hij zich tot de vissers betaalde hun 50 realen voor ongelukte boot en sprak tot Sancho nog eet toch als deze hier mijn vriend en we zullen van al ons reis geld geen pedding meer overhouden de molenaars en de vissers hielden donkisch shot in zijn schildknaap voor niet wijs en gingen hoofdschuddend heen toch onze beiden keerden met het bedrukt hard naar hun dieren terug bestegen die en reden weg van de rivier die hun zoveel onheil had berokkend Sancho Panza in wendig boos onvrijwillige bad en nog veel meer boos dat hij zoveel geld voor die allende geboot had moeten betalen besloot heimelijk bij de eerste gelegenheid zijn heer te verlaten en tot zijn vrouw Teresa terug te keren het noodlood beschikte dat echter anders en verhinderde hem zich aan zulke snoede trouwenloosheid schuldig te maken de volgende dag juist toen onze beide helden uit een bosje op hun groene dal vlakte kwamen ontdek de donkisch shot op een afstand enig gelieden welke hij bij scherper toezien voor valkenjagers hield want na erbij gekomen onderscheiden hij midden onder hen een schone dame op een sneeuwitten toeganger met groentouw en er met zilverbeslagen vrouwenzadel die dame droeg een prachtig groen jachtkleed en hield op haar linkerhand een valk waar haar donkisch shot opmaakte dat zij een hoogadelijke vrouwer en de gebiedster van heel dat jachtgevolg moest zijn het geen dan ook werkelijk het geval was hoezangcho sprak hij na het schitterend gezelschap een poosje te hebben opgenomen rijdt heen naar de schone dame op dat witte jachtros breng haar mijn groet over en zeg haar dat ik donkisch shot van la mancha de leeuwenridder haar de handenkus en vergunningvraag om haar mijn eerbiedig opwachting te maken die boodschap wil ik wel overbrengen zij sangcho zette zijn groutje de hakken in de zijde draafde heen en de plaats bij de schone jageres met haar gevolg stilhield hier sterk hij af boog zijn de knieën voor haar en sprak al dus wonderschone en glansrijke donya de ridder die je daar in de verte ziet is mijn heer de leeuwenridder donkisch shot van la mancha en ik ben zijn schildknaap sangcho panza met name gezegd de leeuwenridder die vroeger de ridder van de droevige figuur hete zint mij tot u om uw vergunning te vragen dat hij komen en u alle behoorlijke onderdanigheid betonen mag het welk hij als een bijzondere gunst en gratie zou beschouwen de dames zag glimlachend op de knieën de schildknaap neer en antwoorden ge hebt uw boodschap uit muntend overgebracht en zo uw heer werkelijk de wijdvermaerde doelende ridder donkisch shot is vanwiens ongehoorde daden ik al zoveel heb vrenomen dan zal hij mij en mijn gebaal op ons landgoed welkom zijn maar sta op de schildknaap zo lang aan mijn voeten te laten neerkdielen door de minzaamheid en genade der hoge dame geheel verrukt stond sangcho op boog tot de grond en keer de hoogst voldaan tot zijn heer terug die de vriendelijke uitnodiging met inig genoegen vernam hij zette zich eerst behoorlijk in de zadel terecht, trat vast in de stijgburgels schoof het visier van zijn helm op gaf er ook in de sporen en zette het toen in galop de genadige handen te kussen deze had inmiddels zijn gemaan laten roepen en diende door sangchopan zou overgebrachte boodschap begedeeld de heer toch lachte daar hartelijk over en daar hij werkelijkheidsveel van de dwaarze ridder gehoord had zag hij die met brandend verlangen tegemoet en verheugde zich op een persoonlijke kennismaking waarvan hij zich allerlei kluchten en grappen beloofde hij kwam met zijn gemalen in overeen dat zij zich geheel naar de luimen van de kluchtige heer schikken hem gedurende zijn verblijf in alles als doelend ridder behandelen en alle ceremonies in achtnemers houden waarvan in de oude ridderboeken te lezen staat in tussen kwam Don Quixote met opgeslagen visier nadig en zodra hij een beweging maakte om van Rokinante te stijgen, kwam Sancho toe om hem de stijgbeugel te houden ongelukkig echter raakte Sancho met de ene voet in de strik van zijn pak ezel vast, tuimelde voorover en lag languit op de grond om de gevangen voet uit de strik los te kunnen krijgen Don Quixote die alleen ogen voor de schone taba had werd van dit ongeluk volstrekt niets gewaar en daar hij nooit afstapte zonder zich door zijn schildknaap de beugel te laten houden meende hij dat Sancho nu ook reeds bij de hand was om zich van zijn plicht te kwijten zonder toe te zien beurde hij zich zijwaarts van het paard en tuimelde nu plotseling rammelend en kletterend naast Sancho op de grond neer de ridder schaamde zich geducht dat hij juist op zokend ogenblik en voor zokend toeschouwers te vallen was gekomen en mompelde de vreselijkste verwensingen tegen de onschuldige schildknaap die nog altijd aan zijn in de strik gevangen been lach te trekken de hertog gaf nu echter aan zijn jagers een wink, de ridder en zijn dina te hulp te komen en Don Quixote kwam dus weer overreind hij had een zware val gedaan maar toch kwam hij hinkend aan om, zo goed het maar gaan wou de lint te begroeten en zijn knie voor beide te buigen dit liet de hertog echter niet toe maar hij spookt zelf van het paard om arm de Don Quixote en zei tot hem het doet mij hartelijk leed heer ridder van het hoevige figuur dat uw eerste aankomst op mijn gebied van zook een kleine tegenspoed moest ver gezeld gaan evenwel moet men zich trouwsten daar de onhandigheid dier knapen zelfs nog wel een schroot ongelukken veroorzaakt door luchtige vorst antwoorden een vriendelijke toespraak ik kan dit ongeluk niet meer als een ongeluk beschouwen nu geen mij op zo minzame wijze hebt weten te trouwsten schoon, het is waar die verwenst is heel knap weet beter zijn tong los te laten en donme dingen uit te brengen dan behoorlijk zoals het betaamd de stijgbeugel te houden maar in welke staat ik ook verkeerend mag, de paard of de voet vallend of staand zittend of liggend overal en te alle tijden zal ik u en uw verhevenige malin als toonbeeld van schoonheid en lieftalligheid bijn hulde in alle nedrigheid toe brengen stil, stil heer ridder van lamantza riep de hecht toch, wie de edele jongvrouwen van tolbozo tot gebied res heeft mag andere schoonheden en lieftalligheden niet zo roemen gedurende dit gesprek had Sanjopanza zich eindelijk losgevongen en trat haast er toe dat is waar, zei hij en ik kan bekachtigen dat mijn genadige jongvrouw doelt Chinea van tolbozo een ware schoonheid is, toch met dat al moet ik erkennen dat mevrouw de hertogin voor haar in schoonheid en lieftalligheid volstrekt niet onderdoet door luchtige vrouw keer de donkie shot zich tot de hertogin uw behoogheid mag vrij geloven dat nu en nooit zolang de wereld staat een donend ridder, een babbelzieker praatachtiger en onbeschaamde rekel tot schildknaap gehad heeft ik hier, zoals blijke zal als uw hoogheid zich ons gezelschap enige tijd laat wel gevallen de goede Sanjo moet werkelijk een oorlijke goud zijn antwoorden de hertogin en dat verblijdt mij omdat ik er uit opbaak dat hij geest en verstand heeft en niet tot de vervenen de domkoppel behoort in alle gevallen zal hij een onthaal vinden dat hem geen reden tot klage geeft voegde de hertog erbij inmiddels had Sanjo zijn ezel bestegen, terwijl Don Quixote op Rokinante zich aan de zijde de hertogin hield en zich met haar in een leersaam en onderhoudend gesprek verdiepte einde van half stuk 18

So welcome back to SuperCloud for our fourth episode focusing on this topic of generative AI, the focus of today's live in studio event. We couldn't have this next guest in studio with us today, so we're bringing them in remote. Vince Kellan, the CIO of UC San Diego, University of California. Vince, thanks for coming on theCUBE here for our generative AI SuperCloud fourth episode. Great to be here. Really appreciate it. Want to get into the practitioner side of it. You're out there, you're seeing a lot of things. CIO, you know about data, how data is structured. Generative AI is all the hype, all the rage. The reality is quickly matching up to the hype and use cases and how people are thinking about their IT environment, how they're organizing their data, what's being data, warehouse is being disrupted with data in the cloud. You're starting to see things like Parquet and Iceberg open formats, changing how data is going to be managed. You're starting to see data models that are starting to match with cloud scale. This next generation which kind of points us into this generative AI which just dropped out of the scene and mainstream over the past year. What's your perspective? Because you know whether you look at a learning system or an educational system or an enterprise, the game is still the same. You got content. You got to put stuff out there and engage with the customers. How do you see the gen AI rolling out right now? Because you've written some great papers on this and essays about knowledge graphs and about horizontal vertical learning, right in line with generative AI. What's your take of what's going on in generative AI today? Yeah, I think the thing that guides my thinking is generative AI makes knowledge generally more available to people. And it actually levels up the more novice learner, the learner who's newer and brings them up faster. That's really the big impact for generative AI. So I just kind of follow that thread across any dimension of a business or in our case universities and students. So it's a big deal, no question. Some of the early research out of the occupational side is showing that it's a very big deal in terms of improving both quality and throughput of answers to questions and support scenarios. It's certainly having an impact on, as you saw in Hollywood and talking to some folks I know that are in the script writing business. Obviously they're starting to use generative AI to help in all of that process. So it makes knowledge generally available to people. Follow that thought anywhere you go. I want to give you thoughts. I know you've seen any waves of innovation from a technical perspective as well as business and certainly education now and many years ago. When the web came on, we saw a similar dynamic. You had the internet was a transit, you had packets moving around all over the place. The worldwide web comes out and then you get websites. And that was a transition where everyone was disrupted. Oh, the web, should we put stuff on there or not? Is it browsable? We put transactions. We know what happened next. It all became adopted and happened. Education is online, businesses went online. Everybody went online, the online population grew. Similar thing now with AI, you have AI apps coming. And there's an infrastructure element too. So you had infrastructure, the web and internet. You have packets around that enabled the web and websites, which is the application. Here with AI, you have the same thing. This is changing the game on how users are going to get content and expectations are changing. Everything's changing with AI. This is happening now, the silicon's there. The cloud scale is there. The data architectures are there. Do you see a similar path where the entire world will move to be AI enabled at some level at an application, whether it's an AI wrapper app or what's called the AI wrapper, chat GPT kind of wrapped into it, or a cloud AI native app or something new. What's your take on this? I believe that many, maybe even most of what we know as our user interfaces today are going to change to more of a conversational style, natural language style of interfaces. So the metaphor I use is Iron Man asking Jarvis a question. So it's causing us to lean into what we call conversational analytics rather than fire up a business intelligence tool and start to finger click away. You say, hey, what were my sales last quarter? Or what were my student counts this last term? And suddenly you get your answer back. Absolutely, this is going to appear everywhere. And anybody who's making money as a software developer on their software interfaces is extremely concerned about and leaning into that conversational AI enabled interface. That said, costs have to come down further. Yeah, absolutely. And we'll see, I mean, the market, the market doesn't, someone will do it. So I want to get your thoughts on, let's go to the next level now. Okay, so web made things faster than the old analog world when digital, things are going to be faster with AI. Say the costs do come down. We live in a capitalist society. I'm sure going to happen with Amazon or with the competitors. Let's just say that it does go that next level. What happens next? Things are going to get faster. Information is going to be faster. The interface is conversational voice and maybe machine to machine. Everything's going on there. What's the future of our world? And I want to ask you this because you wrote a great essay on your newsletter on LinkedIn, the future of education that kind of teases out what the future might look like in a knowledge based world where as things get faster, antiquated and outdated becomes an issue. Even in state of the art systems, it's going to be a constant game of chasing that next real time value proposition. Absolutely. And so everybody's going to be rushing to adjust. I think all roads lead to what I call vertical AI, meaning I'm using the content and knowledge inside my organization and I'm making that available to more of my employees and more of my customers in a very efficient way, a way that I haven't been as efficient in the past. And so that's going to lead to what I call walled gardens of data and trying to protect the privacy of that data both from an IP standpoint and corporate strategy standpoint. This is going to start contrast to some of the big players like open AI, Google and Microsoft that really need access to a lot of content across the web. Enterprises aren't going to be so willing to share that and they're going to tap open to start opening up smaller models to unleash that knowledge inside their organization. So it's going to be a really wild next few years. It's going to be interesting. You mentioned walled gardens, my favorite word because if you go back 20 years, walled gardens were the antithesis of the open web. The web was about openness. And now you're starting to see walled gardens in the actual property of companies. Yet, the large language models are called proprietary. So instant flip script here. So what's your take on that? How do you rationalize that thing? And is that a good thing? And will this all interface with each other with data? So what's your angle on this? Well, on one hand it's a bad thing but on the other hand it's a very good thing for companies that want to compete on their knowledge and information. So if you want to compete on your knowledge and information, you got a lot of tools, lots of ways to do it. So I think it's going to create the needs to now selectively share that knowledge and information with partners and collaborators. So this machine to machine AI or collaborative AI as I call it is going to grow the ability to take your vertical AI and match it up with horizontal AI. We'll take chat GPT as an example, horizontal AI. You take chat GPT, you fine tune it or you use what we call prompt tuning to offset or augment it with your local content. Now you're starting to marry horizontal and vertical AI pieces. I think that's going to grow become, there might even be a brokering mechanism down the road. New information providers who can broker AI to AI to communications are going to be working. We're going to multi-agent AI systems. It's not going to be the prompt engineering of today. It's going to be the orchestration of many AI modules probably across multiple company boundaries. So great new opportunity for a whole lot of new firms still undetermined what that's going to look like. So yes. He's this out in your paper. I want to unpack that horizontal and vertical concept there because what you're saying is there's a horizontal layer called that domain stream. And then you get vertical in the domain expertise or metadata, if it's data, how do you explain this horizontal and vertical knowledge base architecture? Well, let's look at the combustion engine from the turn of the century hitting agriculture. That's horizontal general purpose technology that everybody uses. You really can't alter it. You can buy a different size combustion engine and you can do different things with it, but you can't alter it. Here, you can take the AI tools and turn it loose on your content and now it's altered to you. So that's a vertical sort of approach. If you're creating a new thing, essentially, that's part and parcel of your organization's information and knowledge. And so that's the horizontal and vertical. Horizontal would be like the combustion engine. Vertical would be the combustion engine completely redone just for you perfectly. That's awesome. I got to ask you, and again, back to your future of education piece, future of education horizontal and vertical AI and knowledge flow. I want to ask you something and I know you're in education, but I'll bring it up anyway because I threw a haymaker on one of our podcasts with Dave Vellante and I made a conjecture. And again, this is me on the podcast. So take it with a salt because we pontificate a lot. I said to Dave, I said, if you believe that the knowledge graph in the future is here, it's going to be the future, LMS is learning management systems of the old, very linear, very old school, slower, could be outdated. And I said the following statement. We are potentially on an educational crisis of the equivalent of the mortgage crisis where we're so overlevered with education investment, but yet the content is not adequate and yet could collapse. Now, again, education will collapse, but the thesis is if we can't get an architecture for content matching the needs of the student and you kind of tease, almost to say it's in the paper, but you're kind of teasing out that getting content at the right time is an imperative for educational institutions because there's a lot of money at risk and the capital markets right now from what I've been reporting is tight with education. There's a lot of need for potentially bailouts or leverage debts out there. So there's a lot of pressure in education. What's your reaction to that? Well, first of all, I'm going to put some things out here that are counter to that. The value of the education is tremendous in terms of lifelong earnings of the student who gets the degree. And that's now back to historic levels of highs from the 1920s. World War II witnessed a great leveling of access to education. We've reversed that over time. So whether you like education or not, the reality is you're going to get a million to $2 million of excess earnings with the college degree than you won't. So that's going to create tremendous demand no matter what happens with price points. The other piece of education, well, the learning management system can certainly be impacted. Long ago, it's already been altered a little bit. The learning management system is now a place to hook different modules that interoperate with each other. In fact, I'm on the board of One Ed Tech. That's what we specialize in, trying to get modules of interoperability embedded in an LMS. That's going to continue. I think we're going to see some really interesting stuff as in the books, the textbooks. Textbook manufacturers are going to make those generative AI things. And so they're going to be placed in many different places. You might see instructors adding to that in a certain way. I think we're in an evolution away from the industrial age technique of having the large lecture class to now having generative AI deliver more of that content and now have instructors work on motivation, connection, and meaning. The things that humans can do that generative AI cannot do. And so I'm hoping that that would be part of our future trajectory here in education. Great, great, and now thank you for sharing that great, great call out there. Let's go to that next level, since you brought that up. One of the topics around AI is, does it replace the humans? You kind of mentioned it earlier at the top. People aren't afraid of it. They shouldn't be. The motivation you mentioned about that, brings up this next role of what to do with the free time you have. If you're learning and or doing things with AI, that might've been mundane, toil, heavy, undifferentiated heavy lifting, as they say in the tech business. If AI can be an augmentation to the human, not just a chatbot, but like co-pilot-like augmentation, that implies value. So if that value is probably some of the boring toil or work that you can grind on with AI rather than the classroom, it frees up people's time. And so that's going to create some creativity and open opportunities. How do you see that happening or rolling out in terms of how do we deal with that? What fills the vacuum there? What fills that void? Well, for companies and educational everybody, starting at the top working down, you have to decide where to allocate resources from and to. So anytime you can allocate resources away from mundane, boring stuff and you can allocate it to more interesting, what I call value generating work, that can make a lot of people happy, including many of the staff. Now there's a certain collection of staff and you can perhaps count me as part of that, where we kind of like that boring mundane work and we don't like it to go away. But the creative destruction forces in the economy are going to weed that out quickly over time. Yes, there'll be some job displacement, but I think you're going to see much more of an augmentation effect, probably two thirds to three quarters augmentation effect rather than a replacement effect. To almost any job you can take a stick at. The message we give is, you're not going to be replaced by AI, but you may be replaced by somebody who can use AI. Being AI operator, it's interesting. It's the stakeholders remain the same. Yes, people still going to need to be educated. They're still going to need to find a job. They're going to still need mentoring and peer review or other services that you get to get out in the workforce. All those things are going to probably be augmented by AI. So that's kind of the key call out there. And that's going to be something that has to be a mind shift. So how do the institutions do that? Well, you know, learning is not a dry thing. It interacts with the human emotion and desire, the learner's desire. So institutions and educators really got to tap into the motivation. When you can double the motivation of the learner, you're going to quadruple their learning. The generative AI can help with a little bit of that motivation, but not all of it. And so institutions are going to have to now figure out how to enrich their pedagogy and their teaching so that they can use a generative AI, but then they can start to move some attention and effort to that deeply human element of learning. I want to get your thoughts quickly on the democratization angle and every of these big waves, this democratization access is one democratization. And talk about what needs to happen from a technology perspective, because this is not your yesterday's IT architecture. It's an AI system that's emerging. You're pushing buttons, you're turning knobs, you got personalization is a big part of AI. How do you see this being teed up or thought through from a holistic systems perspective? Well, the access component is kind of interesting because this is a class of technology that's kind of new for us really in the technology world that it helps the less skilled knowledge worker, more so than the highly skilled. It's really interesting. That's the man up and true for other, almost any other form of technology that we've had so far. The other side of that though is it's a ration to good right now is because of the pricing of the GPUs and chips that are out there and the services. So prices got to come down to get the democratization out there. For institutions, we got to make sure we make this free and affordable to institutions. I think any student who's got some money in their pocket are going to be buying and subscribing to AI services to help them in education. My thoughts go to the student who doesn't have the money in the pocket. I'm a former Pell Grant recipient and I was scraping by in my undergraduate curriculum. So I'm very sensitive to that and how to get that democratized. So I think institutions can certainly help a lot in that regard with their AI strategy and make sure they can address what I call the social mobility equity side of it. But as a larger public policy issue it's going to be a problem. I got to ask you about the motivation. I love how you brought that in. It keeps coming back where there's democratization from a motivation standpoint, getting that aspiration or a transition, an organizational. So as a leader in an organization I'm going to be thinking about, okay I want to make sure I don't foreclose the future but I don't want to overdrive the past with hype. I got to deliver the right sequence of operations here. How should I be thinking about if I'm an executive out there, how should I be thinking about how to get people enthusiastic and confident? So that motivations impact. How do you drive the motivation? Can you share your thoughts on that? Well, one thing is we've had more requests inside our organization for us to go out and explain this new technology and it's from a point of desire and good. Said no one ever about an enterprise system change like an ERP system or a manufacturing system change. Nobody calls me up and says tell me all the wonderful things about that. But this is the one where it is. So now that the first step is you got to tap into that motivation in the staff that's really interested and curious. You then have to allow the period of ideation to occur with your organization. Start to understand how this really works, where the benefits may be. Then you're gonna start to develop a whole bunch of use cases and then you start to prioritize use cases. And the use cases you want on board are the ones that are gonna give you the most confidence and feedback right away, easier to do, maybe smaller impact but shorter timeframe. And then start to build some successes and then start to work at bigger and bigger applications. I would not go for the most difficult value impactful thing right away. I would spend time to make sure you get your feet wet. Vince, I want to get your thoughts as we wind down here on a trend that we've been talking about a lot in theCUBE. And every cycle is always a fun thinking. Thinking, think like a designer. Iterate, data first, cloud first. There's a big focus right now we've been talking about this idea of systems thinking where there's consequences, not just isolating, building an app, thinking about the collateral damage of change and how to adapt. What's your view on systems thinking? Because you see a lot of people in this AI market, it's not just the young kids, it's the veterans who have systems architecture backgrounds. You're starting to see the guns come up as well. So you have kind of a diverse set of actors in this innovation curve. Talk about this idea of systems thinking. Do you see it out there? And if so, what mindset should people think about to be a systems thinking? Well, first off, I'm gonna give you my full feedback on what you said earlier. I compare the IT industry to the fashion industry. Every year a new fashion comes in and really goes, wow, the difference between us and the fashion industry, the fashion industry knows it's just fashion. In IT, we think it's real. However, I will say, yes, systems thinking or network thinking or complex systems thinking is absolutely in order. And first of all, generative AI is kind of that. It's a bit of a complex system in terms of how it works under the hood. And the probabilistic sort of framework you got to throw over your operations of AI now is very different. Like I said, this is not your father's data center anymore. This is a whole new thing. And so yes, you need broader holistic system thinking and complex system thinking and probabilistic system thinking skills. Business layer and the technical layer inside your organization. Vince, great to have you on. Final question, as you look at your journey, you've seen again, seen many ways of innovation and you've seen what's in front of us technically in the business, what do you hope to see happen? What's the path in your mind's eye that you hope to see a preferred future with generative AI? Well, I'm hoping it will certainly bring more knowledge to more people and make us all better, not just some of us. So the democratization aspects I'm very interested in. I think the disinformation and deep fake problem is gonna be hitting us. And so I'm a little worried about that as well. But in terms of the long-term future, certainly this is gonna help keep, stay too very competitive in terms of our business and industry and certainly in the global markets. The emerging markets that don't have an information economy they're gonna maybe miss this one out which is a bit of a concern. So the gap between the hasn't had nuts globally is probably gonna expand a bit. So like in all things like technology, there is always good but there's always some of the bad stuff too. You gotta let things rain. As Annie Grove would say, let chaos rain then rain in the chaos. You gotta keep in guard on it, keep on a leash so to speak. Vince, great to have you on and I appreciate your commentary and coming on and participating and contributing to our community on the SuperCloud 4th episode here about Gen of AI. Thank you. Thank you, John, this has been great. Awesome. Vince Callan, CIO of University of California in San Diego. He's on the front lines of education. He understands the system, mindset, the complex system and the opportunity that Gen AI brings. We have to be mindful of it, understand the value and implement it. It's an opportunity for everybody, lowers the barriers to entry in terms of value and knowledge and also levels everyone out. This is gonna be an opportunity we have to watch and we're gonna keep on watching it here in theCUBE. We'll be right back with more SuperCloud 4 after this short break.

Item number SCP 682 Object Class Keter Special Containment Procedures SCP 682 must be destroyed as soon as possible. At this time, no means available to SCP teams are capable of destroying SCP 682, only able to cause massive physical damage. SCP 682 should be contained within a 5 meter by 5 meter by 5 meter chamber with 25 centimeter reinforced acid resistant steel plate lining all inside surfaces. The containment chamber should be filled with hydrochloric acid until SCP 682 is submerged and incapacitated. Any attempts of SCP 682 to move, speak, or breach containment should be reacted to quickly and with full force as called for by the circumstances. Personnel are forbidden to speak to SCP 682 for fear of provoking a rage state. All unauthorized personnel attempting to communicate to SCP 682 will be restrained and removed by force. Due to its frequent attempts at containment breach, difficulty of containment and incapacitation, and high threat of foundation exposure, SCP 682 is to be contained in site the foundation will use the best of its resources to maintain all land within 50 kilometers clear of human development. Description. SCP 682 is a large, vaguely reptile-like creature of unknown origin. It appears to be extremely intelligent and was observed to engage in complex communication with SCP 079 during their limited time of exposure. SCP 682 appears to have a hatred of all life, which has been expressed in several interviews during containment. See addendum 682-B. SCP 682 has always been observed to have extremely high strength, speed, and reflexes, though exact levels vary with its form. SCP 682's physical body grows and changes very quickly, growing or decreasing in size as it consumes or sheds material. SCP 682 gains energy from anything it ingests, organic or inorganic. Digestion seems to be aided by a set of filtering gills inside of SCP 682's nostrils, which are able to remove usable matter from any liquid solution, enabling it to constantly regenerate from the acid it is contained in. SCP 682's regenerative capabilities and resilience are staggering, and SCP 682 has been seen moving and speaking with its body 87% destroyed or rotted. In case of containment breach, SCP 682 is to be tracked and recaptured by all available mobile task forces, and no teams with fewer than seven members are cleared to engage it. To date, attempted breaches have numbered at 17, while successful breaches have numbered at 6. See addendum 682-B. Addendum 682-B. Portion of recorded transcript of SCP 682-B. Begin log.

Okay, hello and welcome everyone to Act In Flab. This is the Act In Flab live stream and I'm pretty sure we're live. Yes we are. It's number 22.1 on May 18th, 2021. And this is gonna be really great discussion. So I'm looking forward to it and thanks again everyone for joining live. Welcome to Act In Flab. We are a participatory online lab that is communicating, learning and practicing applied active inference. You can find us at the links that are here on this page. This is a recorded and an archived live stream. So please provide us with feedback so that we can improve our work. All backgrounds and perspectives are welcome here and we'll be following good live stream etiquette. Welcome Scott. And raising our hands to ask questions and hear from everybody because this is really gonna be a special discussion. We're here in paper number 22 and on May 18th today. And next week on the 25th, we're gonna be having two discussions on the paper Psychophysical Identity and Free Energy by Alex Kiefer. So thanks a lot Alex for joining us live and engaging with the dot zero video because we gained a lot as a lab working through that. And so we're ready to take it to the next level through conversation with you. Thank you. And today we're gonna be learning and discussing the papers link is here. And the video is just us unpacking and exploring raising questions. And we're gonna be also taking notes so that in the dot two, we can be following up. We're gonna start with some introductions just to introduce ourselves and also maybe to raise any thoughts or questions that we had at the outset about the paper. So everyone can feel free to write down points or write down questions so they don't forget them. And we're pretty much just gonna jump around to any topic or question that drives us along and we'll flow with it as people join and leave. And there will be a follow-up discussion 22 next week. That brings us to the introductions and the warmups. So I'll start and we'll pass it around and then end up with Alex who will provide, I think a short introduction to the paper and then we'll continue the discussion from there. So I'm Daniel, I'm a postdoc in California and something I'm excited about today was something we were just speaking about right before was learning about a transparent code and understanding what that might mean. I'll pass it to Scott. Hello, I'm Scott David. I'm at the University of Washington Applied Physics Lab where I run a program called the Information Risk and Synthetic Intelligence Research Initiative. And I'm delighted to be here today and I'll pass it to Steven. Hello, I'm Steven, I'm based in Toronto. I'm doing a practice-based PhD at Canterbury Christ Church and I'm really excited about the psychophysical areas being brought in with this process with energy. So I'm intrigued because that's connects to some of the research I do with communities in their landscape and how to understand that. So thank you and I'm gonna pass it over to Alex. Thanks, hi everyone. I'm Alex Vyatkin, I'm a researcher in Systems Management School in Moscow, Russia and also co-organizer for Acting of Lab and I pass it to Dean. Hi, I'm Dean, I'm up here in Calgary, Canada. I'm retired and I just try to keep up with everybody here. I'll pass it to our special guest today, Alex. Is Dave, no, David has left, sorry, okay, continue. Alex Kiefer. Hey, thanks, yeah, I'm Alex Kiefer. I'm a researcher in philosophy and cognitive science and I do some modeling as well. I have an affiliation with Monash University. Currently also a lot of my time is devoted to working for a nested minds solutions which is an enterprise started by Maxwell Ramstead and some other people. Just recently, we've already got a lot of work under our belt. So I'm really happy to be here. Thanks for having me. This is like, I think gonna be a really fun discussion. Cool, maybe just while the other participants are preparing a thought or a question to lead off, Alex, just how did you come to writing this single author paper? What in your path led you to write it this way? Yeah, sure, so this is an idea that I think first sort of came up for me in about 2015 or so. So I've been fascinated by this formal analogy between optimization and processes and thermodynamics and physics for a long time since, well, not that long, maybe 2012, 2013 when I started getting into the neural net literature on home holds machines and things like that. And so I think this analogy between physics and optimization has been tempting for a lot of people to want to collapse these, right? And this is something that people like my friend Mel, Andrew's constantly worn against is like just taking the physical informational description of the system to be the same as its physical description. But I thought that there was a compelling argument to be made here. So I wanted to actually articulate, not necessarily endorse, right? And I think the way I couch things in the paper is a bit cautious on this, but I wanted to articulate what is the most sort of the simplest, most kind of perhaps radical perspective one could take on this, the relationship between the cognitive dynamics and the physical dynamics that you might be able to defend, right? From a sort of free energy principle-ish perspective. So I wanted to just lay that one way of understanding this relationship out that was as clear as possible. I think in the process, I ended up writing a paper that many people find to be quite complicated. So this was supposed to be an exposition of a simple idea. So maybe we can see if we can get back to that. Awesome. So anyone can raise their hand and we'll just start, but I really liked how you said articulate, but not endorse. You've put out an artifact for us to interact with and to explore and you have framed the psychophysical identity thesis as a hypothesis. So it's something that evidence can now be used to support or to disprove. And that's sort of a nice piece of work that now obviously we have started a discussion around. So we'll go to Steven and then Scott and then anyone else with a raised hand. Yeah, one thing I like about what you're doing here is you're sort of bringing it into the domains where the action is happening. It's a bit like most of the physics around thermodynamics is really often used in chemistry. And a lot like Niels Bohr was actually a chemist. Wasn't a physicist per se, he used physics. So there's an interesting thing about how these areas get transposed over, and maybe layered again to biochemistry, which maybe he's trying to look at the mechanisms that sit on that and X, Y, Z. So I think that's quite relevant to some of the questions we've been wrestling with but what happens when things start to transition to the ontology? And how can you keep a handle on that when you've got people from different backgrounds? So I think that's quite interesting. Awesome. Thank you, Steven, Scott, and then anyone else with a raised hand. Yeah, I'd like to just ask about your, having written the paper and now contemplated it, discussed it with folks. What's your impression of the role of the observer of difference, of gaps, of differences in identifying sources of free energy, exploitable sources. Let me back up. One, I did a paper in presentation in MIT in 2013 called Entropy Accounting. And I asserted that Carnot's equation, the hot and cold differentials that are reflected there are the same as arbitrage equations in markets. And I asserted that heat engines were produced by the human mind observing an attribute because it didn't matter that we thought we had a flow of caloric and it was flowing downhill. We actually, the notion of flow was what we asserted in order to convert random heat, random motion of particles, which we really only use for warmth. Being able to put that into a cylinder, a combustion chamber and then perform work took thousands of years. I wonder if you could comment on, it feels like we're using information like the cavemen as per warmth and not yet putting it in a combustion chamber. And the combustion, is it the fact that the processes where differentials are captured, exploited, utilized, I'm not sure what word to use here, is that like a reaction chamber? Are we reacting observations and data into inference in these reaction chambers of mind similar to the differentials that we exploit to get a heat engine for work? Are we able to capture, what are the devices of capture? Sorry for the long question. Your hand on your chin makes me think that maybe it's an intriguing question. It's definitely intriguing. I probably can't do justice to it, but I'll try. So just on the last point, I guess I think that the, well actually, so first to take your question about information, whether we're using it, sort of like whether we're really exploiting it to its maximum possibilities as information or just treating it as sort of, something like warmth, a source of warmth. I mean, I take it that insofar as we're using information, so it gets to the heart of my perspective and to this perspective of this paper, I guess. So I said I floored this thesis as a possibility, but I do kind of have some sort of deep seated conviction that that information can always be looked at sort of in terms of what it represents and physically. So any process of information, information is literally a process of physical change as well as a process of some system coming to know something. Right, so to take the etymology, just go back to Shannon's original framing, information is just the amount by which someone or something has been informed in my view. So I think insofar as we're treating something as information, we are using it as information, right? It's not, no, I don't know what the, maybe I'd love to hear more from you on this. I don't know what the analogy would be to using information just as heat. Is it like we're aware of something, but we're not really doing anything with it, like in terms of inference or, so I guess my view is that we are, insofar as we're thinking and exploiting information sources for inference, we're using it to its, maybe not maximally efficiently always, but we're using it in a way that's intelligent. But just one more point in this, like the analogy to combustion engine, like the idea of, I guess my thesis here is that anytime we're performing an inference or any systems performing an inference, the physical aspect of that is something like, right? It is an actual physical reaction. So there is always something that has precisely that nature behind any use of information. But I think everything I just said sounds to me completely trivial as I'm saying it. That's its power. Yeah, Scott. What did you mean? We can unpack that because it's known that heat is not just simply wasted, but where there's a heat differential, there can be work. And potentially where there's an information differential, there can be an analogy to physical work but in the informational regime. So what motivates that line of thinking for you? Yeah, it was, well, and again, I'll send around the slides from 2013, but the idea was that it is not by analogy. It really is a capturing by the mind of an attribute of a system, right? You look at a block of iron, it has spin, it has temperature, it has color. There's all sorts of dimensions that it has that are unexploited. And then we can look at them and exploit them for magnetism with spin and then temperature or electrons flow through iron. Same block of iron is just sitting there, but you measure different attributes and as you measure different attributes, you measure them into existence and that existence then can be exploited. And so we did that with heat, right? They thought that heat was caloric. They actually thought it was a fluid, right? But then the guy who was the cannon borer, I forget which one, the guy who bored the brass cannons, he said, wait a second, it can't be a fluid because it's unlimited. It's a quality of the material. So I think what we're talking about in information, it's a quality not of the brain of them, it's quality of the mind and the differential between the brain and the mind. There's a mind out there to be learned. Let's call it an environment if it's animals, but if it's humans, it also involves language. And when you're born, you don't know it. And then you go learn it. So your brain has to get tuned into the mind. So to me, the mind is our combustion chamber. And you gotta learn the combustion. Now, if you're different, learn different things, if I'm a hunter gatherer, I'm gonna learn different things in my environment to combust, right? I'm gonna have different cues and I'm gonna say, wow, this is relevant for me because I gotta do this. And that's the, so we train, I think we train our combustion chamber, it's symbolic, right? And so we're training this thing in which to contain the differential accomplishment of the active inference, the Bayesian accomplishment. And then we train. So it was an article in just the last thing, and I'll shut up for a minute. It was an article in Nature magazine a couple of years ago where they said less than 12 month old human infants learn in a Bayesian way. If you point to a, if he's telling baby, a horse has four legs, the baby will point to a table, a coffee table and say horsey. Then you say, no. Scott just disappeared. It was too much of a truth drop with the table and the legs. So Steven to you and we'll return to Scott when we can. They freeze, sorry. Okay, Scott's back. Anyway, continue with, okay. Continue from the table, the four legs. Yeah, anyways, Bayesian, the Bayesian accumulation, you point to a table, then you point, say, no, it has to have hair, they'll point to a dog and say horsey, then you say, no, it has to have a mane, they'll point to a horse and say horsey. So it's a Bayesian, the article was about Bayesian assembly of human knowledge. And so what if the baby is not really assembling the knowledge but just tuning their brain into the mind and the mind's a combustion chamber. And the mind we teach, we have to learn the mind because that's the useful combustion. We've already designed this community, mind to navigate space and we teach it to our offspring in order to make them more fit. Anyway, else. Cool, thank you, Scott. Any thoughts on that, Alex? Well, it's interesting. I don't know if I completely understand the way Scott's using the term mind here, but I think I kind of can see something that deserves to be called the mind would emerge through this sort of learning process. So I guess there's a trivial sense, I think, in which anything that has energetic properties has a mental side. That's kind of what I'm saying in the paper. But it's trivial. And if you want something that really functions cognitively, then you need to have internalized a lot of these regularities through the sorts of learning and infant schemes that we're familiar with here. So if that's what you mean by learning the mind, I think Scott, you analogized it to the environment at some point, or maybe it's more than an analogy. It's like the source of the data, sensory data that you're interpreting. So yeah, I think it's a cool idea. Cool, Steven, welcome, Lou. Steven, with a question, and then anyone else with a question or Lou, you can say hello. Yeah, one question I'd be interested in is, do you see maybe more than one type of information processing that may be happening at different levels? So maybe you've got, because we've had people talking, say, at the quantum level, which could be happening, particularly say at the photons coming in with the iris and things going up, and then you've got other levels where you've got these steady states going at different rates. And then you've got some of the things you're talking about where maybe it goes into this sense of a more averaged closed mind idea, which would have to be somehow created maybe, because the dynamical nature of the data and the noise is not necessarily exactly how it is when it first arrives at the organism, but maybe you're bringing back some of that more averaged out heat ideas around how energy can be averaged over time in some sort of heat form. Is that, would that be accurate? I'm not sure about the heat piece. I'm just genuinely not sure. We can talk more about it, but like as far as multiple types of information processing, I mean, I think that's definitely what's happening in the brain, of course. There's all this literature on multi-scale active inference and stuff, which my paper isn't directly about active inference, but I think there's no, so we tend to signal out certain processes in the brain as like processing information, but really that's going on fine grade levels and on larger scales, as you say. I think we tend to just pick out one piece to analyze at a time. I guess the part of the question I don't know how to answer is what are the types of information processing in question, so I guess I'm skeptical of that type distinction, not against it. I'm just not sure what kind of types we have in mind, but definitely I think there's a role for averaging just in, if we even, if we just stick to neurons and don't worry about underlying chemistry or physics, like it can't just be that one neuron inspiring represents your grandmother because then if that neuron's shot then you can't represent your grandmother. So I think there has to be, if we want to associate content with brain states, for example, those states are going to have to be couched at the level of averages in some sense, or some kind of statistical property, and I think that comes up clearly also in the work that Carl Friston and Vanya and others have done on the whole Markovian monism idea, so they talk about the fact that it's not individual brain states that encode information on their view, it's the mean of a distribution, a conditional distribution. Anyway, going a bit into the weeds on this, but I do think that that's important. Heat, I don't know, let's talk more about it. Yeah. Heat, we had the what is temperature slide, which I'll just switch to. Yeah, wait, Steve, do you have any other thoughts? Well, yeah, no, go to that slide, and maybe just a sort of following from that is maybe something about the mind and the level of the psychophysical, maybe actually the mind is kind of a psychophysical level, as much as we think of it as a brain level, but maybe what you're pointing to is something a bit more of a dynamic, which is kind of interesting. Yeah, I mean, I generally, sorry, I generally have trouble seeing distinctions between levels. So maybe that's what you all could help point out, like why these things are not the same, and it would help me. Go ahead. Hence the psychophysical identity thesis paper that you wrote. Right. Because that's the entire topic of this discussion, is what are those relationships and are they like each other or are they overlapping, are they isomorphic, are they one and the same? So here on this temperature slide, you wrote about how increases and decreases in temperature change the variance of distributions. So maybe just what is temperature or in this psychophysical identity mapping, what does temperature reflect? Because changing the temperature on the brain, you're not just talking about going into a warmer room. You're talking about something related to inference. So what is happening there? Well, right. I mean, I guess I am saying, like, look, if you change the temperature in the room and that ends up changing the temperature of the brain, then it's kind of an implication of the thesis that you are changing the temperature of your statistical model as well to some degree, right? Probably usually to an imperceptible or insignificant degree, when something like walking into a different room, because the brain has its own internal homeostasis and it's not like we're going to drastically directly affect the brain's internal temperature by changing the room temperature one degree. But I really am speculating, or I'm considering the consequences of, I mean, the overall theme here and temperature is a special case, but the overall theme is that anything that you want, like, so any of the terms in the home holds free energy from physics, from thermodynamics should directly, this is a transparent encoding idea, should directly sort of be reflected in the cognitive dynamics. And so the cognitively speaking, what temperature means, like it says here, is just, you know, temperature parameters in models, neural network models and other sorts of models. I think I've heard this referred to in the active inference literature as the shaky hand parameter, right? So it's like, you're reaching for something. If you increase the temperature parameter, there's less certainty in exactly where the motor system will end up, right? So that's what it means cognitively speaking, or if you don't want to call low-level motor control cognitive, then in terms of these models of organisms, what it means is just literally just the variability of the distribution, right? The variance. So I guess what I'm saying is, yes, I think if this thesis is true, then what encodes that is the actual temperature of the system that implements the model. Very interesting. Thank you. We'll go to Blue and then Scott. Good morning. I'm Blue Knight. I'm a research consultant based out of New Mexico. And I really enjoyed this paper. I really enjoyed the possibility of having a way to separate the mind from simulations of the mind. I think that that's a really relevant and pertinent idea to put forward. But so in relevance to temperature and this is going to totally throw what I just said out the window, you know, I dabble a little bit in retail investing, right? And so the day before or maybe in the morning, you might like what's called take the temperature of the market, right? So you see kind of things going up or things going down. Like you just kind of put your feelers out there and take the temperature of what the market's going to do. So I just wonder in terms of cognition, in terms of active inference, if there's a way to take the temperature in maybe like more of a metaphorical sense, right? Does that make sense? I'm not sure. So I can elaborate a little bit more. Like in the political system, right? Like we get like a temperature. Like is this like a liberal environment or is it like a more conservative environment? And that might influence our actions, right? Like the active inference loop might be influenced by the perception of temperature in the environment. Right. So yeah. I mean, first of all, hi. Thanks for joining them. You and Dean and Daniel, I really enjoyed your discussion in point zero. And it made me excited to talk about it today because it's cool how just how many different questions or you know, anyway, whatever it's cool. So I mean, sure you could use temperature in a metaphorical way as well. Like I think, I guess in this paper, I tend to assume that when people that metaphors are not metaphors, but identities, right? As the ground level assumption and then see where that you're forced to distinguish between them. So like if we're talking about, again, if we're talking about a model of motor control where you're literally reaching for something, then I think in that case it's plausible that there's some relationship between the actual temperature of the pieces of the system that are driving the motion and the temperature parameter in the model. But like if you're talking about something like taking the temperature of the market or, you know, the political, there still might be partial mappings there. Right. Like, but you know, if you're defining some arbitrary dimension, so if the temperature politically means one side of the scale is conservative and the other side is liberal, then I wouldn't expect that there would be some physical component to that. But the same way that your paper was, as you said, just putting it out there and not endorsing the psychophysical identity, it's almost like an iconophysical identity thesis would be asking whether the thermo-like dynamics of markets actually have some sort of mapping that's more than a metaphor, but it's something that can be stated and blanketed or boxed off and then can be understood as being adequate in certain situations, but maybe inadequate in other situations. But when we talk about the market heating up, people know what that means in a way where, you know, the market feeling happy doesn't really capture it heating up or cooling down. So Scott, and then anyone else with a raised hand? Oops. I'm not sure if I should try to share my screen. I may just screw up, so let's not do that. But let me, so I just pulled up my slides from 2013. And so I said under the first law of thermodynamics, temperature has two roles. First, from the perspective of a party outside the system, temperature tells whether two or more systems are in thermal equilibrium, same temperature equals equilibrium. Okay. From the perspective of a molecule in this system, temperature tells about the distribution of various molecules in the system over the possible energy states, right? The higher temperature equals a broader distribution of molecules in different states and a higher Boltzmann distribution. So what I'm asserting in this context, in the context of those earlier slides, was it analogously here, are we looking within the system of the cognitive system and the dynamics of components within it, or vis-a-vis an outside voice for that system? I think that's a relevant question here, because when we're talking about the first law in here, we don't, we have, this is Maxwell's Demon is actually a person now. Sorry, that obscure reference. But Maxwell's Demon was a convention to, plus with the second law of thermodynamics, a gating function. And now we actually have the notion of what does a molecule in the system think, in a sense, is what I'm inviting here. And so I think the assertion, assertion certainly I'm making in that context is we can capture either one of those dynamics and it's infodynamics, you're not thermodynamics, is what I call it. But essentially, first law tells you about interoperability is what my assertion is, because you could have equilibrium in a symbolic way. I assert is the equivalence of interoperability and symbolic. And so that's when you're gonna have a beating of the minds and we can have shared consciousness society, shared language, all that kind of stuff is my notion of where the first law takes you. Thanks. That's very intriguing. I need to read your work on this, please. Yeah, I mean, not to give a two hand wavy answer, but I think since we're dealing with multiple scales here, we could talk about neurons performing active inference, people doing it. I think both of those sort of uses of temperature are relevant. But we can say one. Yeah, we'll get to Steven, but maybe just a general question. Where does active inference come into play and how does it come into play? Oh yeah, so, right, so you guys raised in the point zero that I didn't really talk about active inference that much. In fact, I only referenced the literature on active inference. So this paper isn't really about active inference. It's not really directly about the FEP either. So thank you for having me despite that. But it's, I mean, obviously it's in the very core. It's concerned with the same core issues, right? But I don't want to take us on this if it's a tangent, but the reason that I don't write about active inference that much is that I think from a high enough or meaning abstract enough point of view, we don't need, I don't know that there's really a difference. To me, active inference kind of relates to the stuff, the way that like Dawkins' extended phenotype proposal relates to more traditional ways of thinking about evolution and genetics in that it's a new paradigm. But I don't think that there's a system that you can describe using active inference that you couldn't also describe using, say, traditional representationalist terminology. So that's obviously controversial and we could talk about it. But like in so far as you're concerned with analyzing or designing a system, like, right, even if you want to write an active inference agent as a model, you only have control over its internal states. You can't directly control. It needs, yes, it optimizes its situation by acting and intervening on the environment, but you can't directly control how the intervention on the environment plays out. You can only control the expectations for sensory data given that you've acted in such a way. And so that's why I tend to just default to, you know, it's what Jerry Fodor called methodological solipsism, right, which is a very different perspective from what people, I think, I love to talk about this. Maybe they're more similar than I think too. But anyway, so like active inference is great. I think in fact it leads to new ideas for technology and new models just because it's a different way of thinking about things. But when you're doing like philosophical analysis like this, I don't find that it's, for me, often necessary to think in those terms. But I would love for someone to point out something that I'm missing by not doing that. Well, what we love here in the active lab is hearing everyone's perspective on active inference and also adjacencies and synonyms and other languages and other ways of expressing it. So thanks for sharing it the way you did. Steven, if you wanted to. Okay, yeah. So sort of building on that, you mentioned the Helmholtz free energy rather than the Gibbs free energy. So you sort of the broader sort of energy that's available. The, I suppose a question I've got here is in this, in that, actually go back to that diagram just one sec with the distributions. There you've got just, you've got both the difference in the sort of the size of the distribution for the different sized molecules. But you've got the average speed is higher for hydrogen or oxygen. It's faster. It's the speed is faster for something that's lighter. And that may have an impact at the local level when the actual atoms are hitting each other at the same temperature. But when you take the average, it's all around the same energy, if that makes sense. So I just wondered if there's any particular sort of relationship to the way that the speeds are happening and the way that might change something at a certain scale and just Helmholtz and Gibbs free energy. Yeah, so to be honest, I mean the reason I wrote, I write about Helmholtz free energy is just because it's the thing that Jeff Hinton and others used in their, when setting up things like the Helmholtz machine, the Gibbs free energy I'm just less familiar with, it's it adds complications that I thought weren't relevant. But if they are relevant, then let's talk about it. Could we, yeah, could we maybe hear a little bit from you? Just what is free energy in the senses that you used it? Or how would you describe it to somebody who might be not very familiar with thermodynamics? Right, someone such as me, for example. So what I would say is, well, I mean I'm a philosopher, but so free energy in a physical and a thermodynamic sense, as I understand it, again, I welcome any things in the other direction. But as I understand it, it's just the energy that's available for doing work in the system. So it's the internal energy, the all the energy that the system harbors just in virtue of its configuration, its sort of existence at that moment. Minus all of the energy that's not usable because it's tied up with sort of this disorder with entropy. So I'm sure that someone else here could maybe articulate that more gracefully than I just did, but that's the one term. And the other term in the equation here is the variational free energy, which is just the difference between it and basically the generative model or the joint distribution that defines the system's generative model of some kind of statistical model, more generally, and the approximation to it that you've arrived at at a particular time step. So if you're doing variational inference, you're trying to fit this Q distribution, which I mean, you know, people, this has been talked about ad nauseam, so it's hard for me to get the energy to really launch into it because I feel like we all are familiar with this concept, but it's just the difference between the approximating distribution, the recognition distribution or density, and the generative density. So I guess the thing to underline there is that it's only defined in terms of these P's and Q's, right, Q recognition P generative that are defined in terms of the generative model, which is a model, right? It's a mapping between hypotheses, right, or hidden states and outcomes. So there's obviously no a priori connection between that and thermodynamics. So it's just important to keep in view that one of these is in terms of how it's defined is thoroughly cognitive, has to do with belief updating, and the other has to do with the physical states of the system. And that mapping between the cognitive and the inferential and the physical is, again, the entire discussion and the entire point of putting out an artifact that is critiquable or is extendable in the ways that you made it. So Scott, then Stephen, and then also anyone else who's watching live can just put a live chat in and we'll ask the question. So Scott, then Stephen. So this is really what a great conversation. Thank you, you're on a great paper. So a couple of things. First of all, I wonder, we always talk about a being by analogy and it's not really thermodynamics, but von Neumann said to Shannon, use the second law thermodynamics for your quantitative theory of information because, and his quote, right, his quote was, because the math is identical, which tells you something. It at least tells you something about math and human. But may not tell you anything about the environment, but it tells you something about math and humans. But he also said, and if you use the word entropy in any argument, you'll win every time because no one will know what the hell you're talking about. So that's good advice on both of those points, right? So I always look at it and I go, okay, so let's talk about those differentials. And that free energy question that we just answered, I, so ideal in policy, I'm not a biologist, I'm a lawyer, okay, and a physics lab. And the reason I'm interested in this stuff is I think you can access the external states. And in fact, I think that's all we do as social beings is we, that's what rhetoric is. I am constantly trying to lasso external states of everyone else. That's what politics is. That's with all the whole misinformation problem right now. We're setting out, now in a biological example, we kind of don't send around memos as much. Now there is, there are communications obviously in the sciences and in the nature and all that, but when we get into the human populations, we may have something more going on here. Maybe mind is an emergent phenomenon merely of the attempt at harmonically coupling with other minds. Maybe a break, if we're successful in tuning into that local mind, we survive. If I am dropped into France, and I don't speak French, then am I going to survive? Now, now I will, but what if it was 300 years ago or whatever, right? So you need to, if the mind is feral and is trained, maybe that ability to affect the externality is everything. Maybe that's how we are humans in the way that we are, because we're pretty pathetic little organisms on our own, each one of us, right? We don't have sharp fingernails, and our tooth and claws not, we get bloody, but it would take a lot of biting because it would kind of blunt, right? So anyway, that's a bit of a tangent. But so the question is, are we, maybe if we look at the, maybe we're not entering another brain, maybe the mind is where the action is, and when we're doing this in training, maybe we're merely tuning into something that exists already in our attempts here at this active inference, and we're just getting on board with the existing mind. And so therefore our steady state, our homeostatic state is the one that is most aligned with the externality that's drawing us there. And as lawyers and as policy people, we create artificial externalities. That's why I use synthetic intelligence in our title. We're creating synthetic externalities and saying, hey, come on over here. We got a good externality over here. Check it out. This one's resilient, sustainable, and the SDGs of the UN love it, right? So we're creating realities. What do we think about that in terms of the notion of the efficacy of the possibility of harmonic coupling with other minds and that as another active activity and active interest, not just changing your internal model? Yes, that's extremely interesting. So I mean, I think this question of how exactly the external states get into the picture is like pretty fundamental for a lot of people who are in this area. And I think you're right that it's essential, but it's essential in a strange way where it's completely inessential too. So it's essential in that, yeah, the reason that your steady state is what it is essentially involves the environment, right? So like in the free energy principle, the NESS, the non-equilibrium steady state is defined with respect to this sort of a subsystem that's embedded in an environment. And that steady state wouldn't exist without both pieces of that, right? And it's the fact that you're doing gradient descent on that that guarantees that your variational inferences is going anywhere useful. And that's sort of the sort of magical seeming connection between actual accuracy and all of this just churning that happens when you're minimizing free energy over time. But the way in which it's inessential is, of course, I mean, I just, I guess maybe I'm maybe, I've been called a Cartesian before, maybe I am, I don't know, I didn't mean to be, but there's a sense in which simply just the datum here is just that I can get things wrong and I don't see that there's any obvious way of limiting the scope of that, right? So just fallibilism. So I think there has to be some subset of states of the overall universe that you'd identify with you and your perspective and otherwise, right? You have, sure, the external states are essential to the story and they drive the dynamics de facto, but there has to be a difference between the actual external state at any moment and the external state that I represent via my hidden states or my internal states. And so I think, you know, like the reason any of this works in practice is because we've internalized the structure of the external environment and this whole point about harmonic coupling between minds is really cool. It's, there's something really cool and bootstrappy about that. It's like, right, minds are things that harmonize with other minds, right? And I don't, just to kind of pick out another piece of what you said, the way that I tend to think of this stuff is in terms of sort of imitation. So the fundamental term for a lot of people in this area is prediction, but I almost think we just learned to, our brains learned to imitate this sensory, right? The patterns of, the processes that produce patterns of sensory input, but the reason it's not just imitation is that also the world is just made up of a bunch of these generative models that each have their own driving, right? Signals, so I'm not sure, I don't know. I don't know how to tie that up in a nice package, but it's a cool set of questions. And so the reason though that I stopped sort of saying that the external states are as fundamental in understanding systems, biological systems, people, et cetera, as the internal states is simply things like Cartesian skepticism. So we could talk about that. Yeah, go ahead, Scott. Just to follow up, well it is interesting because it's, because our struggles in it, when I say on this group very often, the only time you see reality is when you see paradox, right? If you're seeing an absence of paradox, you're intrinsically seeing a model of some sort. And so we should embrace a confused state and know that that is a reality. And so that is not just a statement for this conversation, but in general, maybe what the mind is doing is the same thing that the body does when it's standing still. You're actually never still. You're always dynamically moving to maintain a semblance of stasis in a banded stillness, right? So maybe we have a banded mind. Maybe it's fully dynamic. And maybe what we think of as us, an existential kind of element of it, is within a band. Right? If people change over time, it's a ship theseus in a way, right? You're still the same person, but some of the stuff has changed out, swapped out over time. So maybe the embodiment helps us with mind as a fractal way at any level, because we can say, okay, if we have a system that's doing processing of dynamic environment, some of that processing may be internal, some may be external. I mean, that's group formation. And you know, part of it's genetic and consanguinous in terms of performance. And some of it is people who are similarly situated, right? If you're in a disaster and everyone's all of a sudden has the same problems, people band together all of a sudden very easily and their mind morphs into that organism that is needed for that acute situation in that stressful environment. And so maybe it's always dynamic, but that we don't see the dynamics as much and they seem more leisurely when we're studying them in the abstract, but maybe they're highly dynamic in both directions, especially as we've become information beings and more dependent on symbols. Thanks, Scott. Just one thought on the dynamics is anyone who's recorded a neuron or thought about that knows that just to keep an idea in your mind for a few seconds is being underwritten by vast numbers of dynamical processes that are quite rapid. And the second point about the internalities and the externalities and the internal states and the external states, the Helmholtz free energy has this U internal energy. And that's like the configuration of the molecule usually thought of as and then this negative TS is sort of that those vibratory modes that can't be as easily harnessed. But when you pointed to synthetic externalities, which is the same thing as saying reconstructing the internalities, it's like what if all of a sudden the organization of the system, we could partition it a little bit differently so that we had more U and a little bit less TS. And when you think about a vibrating molecule, U makes it look like the covalent bonds and TS is the vibration. But if you think about an ant colony, the movement of the pieces is still part of the internal dynamics. And so especially when we're talking about information, which isn't covalently bonded atoms, internal energy is something about the model. It's not just about how things are touching and can be broken and reformed. So there's a lot of awesome pieces in what you added there. Stephen, and then anyone else with a raised hand? Yeah, I think building on that, you're right, there's this, I think you're making the right choice here for this paper using the Helmholtz free energy. I think that's a, even if Gibbs free energy is used more in active inference, that adds an extra level of complication. And I think this is actually useful then because you're able to look at some of these distribution questions and just how information is extracted. This is actually helpful for me to see you go back to the Helmholtz because it makes me realize, well, the Gibbs free energy, which is more about how action happens, how do you know what the internal energy change would have to do if it was trying to also keep within a certain constraint of volume and pressure, which you don't have to worry about with Helmholtz free energy, that would bring in action. That would bring in the action part of active inference in some ways. But the underlying principles still hold for what you've got. So I think that's helpful. So I don't know if you've got any thoughts on that. Yeah, that is helpful. I would just say that that is helpful. And I would love if in the future, anyone worked on this same topic and unpacked the sort of, I was going to say generalization, but it's maybe the opposite. How this would work out in the case of action more specifically and using Gibbs free energy and stuff, that would be really cool. Awesome. And taking the temperature of a person in terms of going for a checkup to the doctor and they put the thermometer under your tongue and that's a thermal temperature and how are you feeling? What does it look like to take the temperature just like Blue had been suggesting? So maybe let's go to the transparent code slide that you added, Alex, because that was definitely something that we were curious about from the dot zero. And we can just hear your thoughts on this, talk a little bit about this, and then also anyone else can just write down a question, raise their hand or ask in the live chat. But we'd be really curious to hear what you thought about this. Yeah, sure. So yeah, so the reason again that I put this in was that Dean and maybe everybody in that point zero discussion had questions about this. And I think the transparent code, it ends up sounding like a slogan that invites speculation and it's like a mystery or something. But this might be a case where I'm trying to say something so simple that it's easy to miss, right? So let me just first frame this. The role that this plays in the paper is that if you want it to be that variational free energy and Helmholtz free energy in the thermodynamic sense are the same quantity, then you're going to have to explain how, well, both of them are sort of made up of probabilities, right? So you need to have a mapping from one set of probabilities to the other. So there has to be a way of understanding how the probabilities of states, this is the big distinction in the literature, right? How the probabilities of states could represent, could represent. So the probabilities of states in the system, the cognitive system that you're analyzing, which is also a physical system, how is it that those could represent the probabilities that are assigned by that system to the external states, right? So the idea of a transparent neuronal code or any code is just that the probability of, for example, so on the left hand of the diagram here, if we had a transparent code in the sense in which I'm using that term, then, for example, the probability of B firing given that neuron A fires, right? So if B is post-synaptic neuron and A sends a signal to B or A fires and there's a certain probability of B firing subsequent to A firing, that would represent the probability of some state of affairs Q obtaining given that some state of affairs P obtains where A, and this, we can talk about where this mapping comes from, right? But the assumption is A represents P occurring and B represents Q occurring. So that's really all I meant by a transparent code. And it's not, it's a simple idea, but it's definitely controversial, right? That would mean that if you think that there's a certain conditional probability of the cat being on the mat given that the cat lives in the apartment, then the probability that you would represent those things has to be tied up with the probability that you assign to those things occurring. And that's not at all a sort of uncontroversial statement. But it's a simple idea. And this is an idea, by the way, again, that's used in some of the early connectionist literature on Blue mentioned Boltzmann machines, right? So there's an early paper on Boltzmann machines where this kind of stochastic code is proposed. And the basic, one more sentence on this, the basic idea is that the objective probability, sort of measurable probability of events within the system maps onto the subjective probability that the system assigns to the states of affairs that are represented by those internal states. Interesting. And in the context of the cognitive system of interest, we're talking about the brain. It's like, we know that we're not going to get the transparent coding from the photons hitting the retina to what is the probability of the cat being on the mat. So with this multi-level processing, as you've kind of hinted at with the multiple layers here, it could be possible that at some neuronal stage or at some level of processing, there is a pattern that maybe represents the cat being on the mat probabilistically, which also invoked the whole representation questions, which we had talked about months ago. Right. So it's so fun to see how you delineated where there's controversy, sometimes even both sides of the discussion around a controversy. And then it's like, great, here's the artifact. Let's see which way we're going to push it. If there turns out to be more evidence for transparent coding, then we'll push it that way. And if there turns out to be less, then we can push it a different way. So Scott, if you're there, I don't see you yet. So Steven first, and then, okay, Scott, go ahead. And then Steven. You just wanted to mention there was an article in Nature a couple of years ago where there was an assertion made that consciousness, this is what got my eye, consciousness they asserted arose 520 million years ago. And I was like, well, that's interesting. What's the evidence? And what they found was some structures for, I think they were proto-nodo cords or something, but basically it was a ganglia kind of thing, a secondary processing. And their assertion was that because they found physical evidence of a neuronal structure, again, in fossils, so it was some structure that he apparently was able to be preserved in shale or something. But because it was secondary processing beyond the eyeball or the ear or the perceptual apparatus, that secondary processing, they suggested, meant there was consciousness because that was their definition. But it was interesting, the reason I raise it here is it's interesting that notion of embodied. So we're talking, again, let's talk about reaction chambers. We have their stimuli all over the world, there's things happening, and then we have perceptions, ability to stimuli in our, afforded to us. And so that comes in, but we don't have the structure of it is TBD. And so then the organism embodies morphologically certain structures over time, eyeballs and nodo cords and ganglia and things like that. And those themselves are information structures, they just haven't even embodied in the morphology. So it's morphological computing for biological organism, because they now can do that thing. I can't see an ultraviolet, but bees can, that kind of thing, or infrared, that kind of thing. So I just wanted to raise that idea, that assertion that offended me originally, that consciousness arose 520 million years ago, is not so offensive in a way, because what they're trying to do is grope at the notion of the layering on of morphology and embodiments, and say, look, here was a ratchet, here's something happened here, and we think, we don't know how much more information, it's like Julian James, when he went back and did the origin of consciousness and the evolution of the bicameral mind book in the 70s, J-A-Y-N-E-S, and he was asserting from a literature search, that the Wernicke's area flashed on at one point, it was equivalent to Broca's area, language center in the other side of the brain, and his literature search, he looked at Joan of Arc, he looked at the Iliad, and he said that morphologically, literature embodied that notion of the mind actually changing, ancient literature, you can see the mind turning on an internal voice, and so I just wanted to raise that notion, those embodiments of the external and internal states lying around all over the place, right? And so your paper does a nice job of inviting the treatment of those, or those as candidates, for looking at the mind being assembled, particularly if the mind is external to the brain, and the brain is just an antenna tuned into the mind. Thanks. One funny little synchronicity there is that Julian Janes wrote the book that Scott mentioned, Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicomeral Mind, but Edwin Janes was a very famous thermodynamics researcher who introduced the maximum entropy interpretation of thermodynamics, so related like we all are by those estimates. Were they related by the blood? Aren't we all? Yeah, come on. Stephen, and then anyone else. Yeah, just sort of coming to this diagram that you've got here, so I think one thing I'll be interested in, and as you say, neuronal or other internal systemic states, so you sort of give a little bit of latitude to dynamical aspects of that, goes to cognitive states of the system beliefs, and I'm wondering how much you're tied to those beliefs being statistical, computational, sort of separate things, or how much is it beliefs on action policies? I mean, I'm not pushing active inference again, but it's fun. Yeah, what's your thoughts on that? Yeah, I mean, there's all sorts of questions here about how we individuate representations and such, but I wouldn't think, I don't really think of these as detachable, separate entities at all. So that note is labeled P, but I'm one of these functionalists who thinks that the label itself does nothing. The label is a useful indicator for people outside the system to understand what it represents, but the representational function is just the role that that node plays in the network. And I think that it subsumes and includes connections to action. I just tend to think of connections to action as the special case where what you're generating, what your generative model is generating, are states of the motor effectors. So I just, and I think any kind of planning that the organism learns to do can also be understood as learning sort of sensory motor contingencies, which will influence how states of the motor effectors are generated in tandem with states of the perceptual system. How perceptual biases occur. So basically, yeah, I don't think that there's any, like these don't need to be cognitive separable features of the, these don't need to be separable features of the system. They're just like, when I say that a state represents P, because it represents for me has sort of a functionalist meaning, I just mean that's just sort of a label for a set of ways in which the system can behave because of its internal structure. So including sort of internal dynamics, right? But it's really just a label for a property of the dynamics of the system. Cool. And also beyond the action being at the gross organismal motor level, potentially internal representations or states could be like hormonal or neurosecretory. So the neuron get fire, but neurons have other affordances, like the little micro motor behavior with the motor proteins, like releasing a vesicle of a protein that's been transcribed and translated, also tiny little motor behaviors of nested smaller agents inside of that neuronal interface. So Stephen, and then anyone else with a raised hand? Actually, just what you were saying there, Daniel, does that mean that you can almost release hormones through the brain? It doesn't have to be like through a gland in the body, but you've got smaller scale releases. Neurosecretory cells and neuroendocrine biology are large areas. So yes, many kinds of cells pull in and secrete molecules. And neurons are of various subtypes, secreting specific hormones, neuropeptides, all kinds of hormones and signaling molecules, short range and into the circulation. Got it. Okay, thanks. And I let that process and that's really useful. I didn't know about that. And I suppose just adding on to this, when you mentioned about sensory motor contingencies and being able to... So I'm wondering that the scale of consciousness and things entering into consciousness or the phenomenological sort of awareness, do you sense that there may be, even if active influence is underwriting it all, other types of... Like it doesn't have to be as pure active influence at that scale. And it could be working with other types of sort of architectures or process architectures. I mean, well, one thing is that consciousness... So I think Scott brought up consciousness for the first time here. That's really interesting. I sort of deliberately didn't say anything about it in my paper because I find that it's a very thorny topic for me, of course, for many people. It's not notoriously not an easy problem or maybe it is and it looks like a hard problem. But anyway, yeah, so I'm not sure. I do think that all the cognitive dynamics I'm talking about are probably more fine grained than what shows up in consciousness. So I wouldn't say that there's some transparent mapping from whatever you believe in the sense of belief that's implicitly defined here and what you are consciously aware of. So there's all sorts of theories of how consciousness relates to this stuff. There was a second piece to what you said that I wanted to address, but I don't remember what it was. Well, I suppose it's a scale, but I think you kind of addressed it a little bit there. So Daniel, were you going to say something? Yeah, we'll come back to it if you remember what it was. Yeah, Scott. And then anyone else with a raised hand? Yeah, I wanted to go back to the notion of neurotransmitters for a minute ago when you were talking about endocrine neural function. A couple of things. There's a couple of books here I just wanted to hold up. There's Cognitive Archaeology and Human Evolution, kind of an interesting notion there. There's a couple of authors there. And here's the other one, Archaeology and Memory, kind of an interesting one. The reason I raised these is kind of interesting when you talk about neurotransmitters, I remember reading an article a few years ago that suggested that among all the animals in the animal kingdom, now the animal kingdom is an old representation, Corollus Linnaeus thing. I get it, but in any event, there's only one animal that doesn't share any of the neurotransmitters with the rest of the animals. It's like the box jellyfish or some kind of jellyfish, I forget which one it was. And I thought that was interesting just when we were just talking about a minute ago. Daniel was noting about neurotransmitters. Well, again, it's morphological computing. Those are artifacts of earlier solutions. They're practices of processing of information by these organisms, right? And so the fact that we can go back and say, wow, I wonder if these things were related, given the fact that they don't share any neurotransmitters. That's kind of an ethereal element. It's not something that you get like bones and doesn't fossilize well. But isn't it interesting that we can find the morphology of neurotransmission in current organisms and use that to understand lineage and relationship? So in fact, it's a morphological artifact. And so it's not epigenetic, right? But it's interesting the relationship of the homeostatic state of thinking or cognition of a certain line of organisms and the morphology of its neurotransmitters. I'm interested in use social insects, for instance. Do people do profiles? If anybody here knows anything about use social insects, please type in. What's the story with neurotransmitter analysis among use social insects? Is that a special neurotransmitter especially invoked? And is the morphology of neurotransmitters, perhaps, where the organism resides more than other physicalities? Thanks. Great question, Scott. So first on the TNA4 point, and then the use social. So the TNA4, indeed, it did suggest new evolutionary hypotheses when people investigated which neurotransmitters TNA4s used, and they convergently utilized some of the same simple charged amino acid derivatives, but they used them in different ways. For example, glutamate is not used in muscle contraction in vertebrates. We have acetylcholinergic receptors at the muscle. But glutamate was used, which supports Alex's point about functional representation. There's nothing that says glutamate means muscle contraction. It's a functional context with a receptor and a muscle cell in a neuron that generates the contraction. And potentially for a later day, maybe when we discuss active inference, the paper, but we've done multiple studies measuring neurotransmitter metabolism and gene expression in ants. And there's been a lot of work on honey bees as well. And just the one point I'll make here, since it is a large area and people can look at the papers if they want, is that the neurotransmitters that are involved in the regulation of foraging in ants and bees are inherited from the neurotransmitters that regulate foraging in solitary insects, like dopamine and octopamine in fruit flies, where it's been investigated in the context of solitary foraging. But the inputs and the outputs of foraging for the use social insects are different. So whereas an interadresophila, it's like internal hunger signals, representations, maybe some sort of neural hormonal encoding leads to foraging behavior. And then that results in the acquisition of food that reenters that bodily system. But an ant forager is foraging essentially food for the larva, a different part of the colony organism. So the inputs, like the stimuli that lead to induced foraging behavior and the outputs like where the food goes are different. But the foraging motor behavior is conserved. And it's that rewiring of the motor motif of foraging via the same neurotransmitters octopamine and dopamine and others that actually enable the colony life cycle. So it's a really awesome area. I hope we can talk more about how that relates to active inference. So Stephen and then Scott and then anyone else who raises their hands. Yeah, I'd like to ask a question about which sort of links to that. It's a kind of a semi theory I've got. But is it feasible with this that the brain like an organism basically the cells that become the brain effectively, they mutate and they transform into the unique form that the brain and the nervous system basically like another organism growing into the main organism, right? So you've got two organisms once they differentiate and their brain is like the control and the nervous system is like the control organization growing into and with the other the fascia of the other organism when in a human's fascia, but obviously I just wondered if that would be plausible and that that would do anything with this brain organism boundary question that I know you are kind of connected to in terms of wanting to maybe maintain more of that potential. I don't know if that's something that other people are talking about or whether it's a little bit out there and just biologically or from the sort of cognitive philosophical sense how that pans out. Yeah, I love the like biology and biochemistry and stuff and all this you know, wonderful fine-grained scientific life sciences stuff that you guys are bringing to the table on this. That's not as much where I'm coming from but I think it's really really cool. But so the idea that you just articulated sounds out there and plausible to me. So I think that like that's kind of what I would expect is that this same story can be told on multiple scales internal to the system, right? And so the brain learning sort of learning growing. I guess I've just been conditioned to think of all this as one type of process, right? So I said learning but morphological development and growing into its mature shape is a form of learning. But so anyway that happening and interfacing with the rest of the organism, I mean I definitely don't see any reason that we need to draw a like joint in nature around the physically right the organism that we can perceive there are going to be many similar joints that we could delineate within. So I think that's a cool idea. I don't know much about the details of that process so I can't like check that validate it but it sounds plausible to me. Thanks Alex. Blue and then Scott. So just to kind of maybe ask Stephen to unpack a little bit what he said. So I think in terms of like a brain organism like separation or duality like do you maybe mean like mind organism because as like in my experience it's like the like the brain is like the control center, right? Like I don't know that there's necessarily like a division between the brain and the organism but definitely like the mind is kind of like this ethereal concept. So maybe could you just unpack that a little bit? Well I was actually thinking partly thinking about the work of Mike Levine or Mike Levine and so in a way my understanding is that once a cell becomes a neuronal cell there's no going back like it's kind of like it so it's in some ways it's curious whether that whole structure be it from a small organism is effectively like we basically have two organisms in our body because our cells have differentiated into the bodily organisms and the neuronal ones and they've sort of they work together in this symbiotic kind of cybernetic loop. So that's the kind of thinking about how it pans out. So I just if I could just like speak to that a little bit. So the neurons can de-differentiate and do in like especially like in neural cancer types. So we do see some some de-differentiation there. It's not as committal as we've thought before. I mean it's kind of a budding field and the you know antique way of thinking is that there's it's a set lineage but there's there's ways that you can convince them to do otherwise. I think Mike Levin's thing is the bioelectric field right and so he separates the the bioelectricity of the organism as as maybe the overarching control center there but I've not seen like a neural like a neuron body distinction that's why I was just like what sorry. Well one thought on that and also to Scott's point about the emergence of a second level of the nervous system is to remember from developmental biology that ectoderm the outer layer of the developing embryo turns into neuro ectoderm which is the tissue that gives rise to the nervous system and gastrulation in the neural tube. So the nervous system developmentally neurons share an affinity and a developmental proximity to the external layer and so when you start nesting internal layers inside of that tube that's closed you start getting higher order nervous systems and then also the pituitary gland to sort of close this with a neuroendocrine discussion the pituitary gland is actually amalgamated from multiple developmental sources and so it's interesting that it has such a pivotal hormonal position integrating hormones and the brain's function and it itself is like a refusion from a tissue perspective of multiple branches of the ectoderm that had branched and then they reformulate a new organ which is the pituitary gland that serves a very coordinating role in organismal development. So Scott and then anyone else with the question. You know this is the best way I can spend my day with people who say the quote the pituitary gland is amalgamated from multiple ectoderm sources they're I'm in the right place man you know when you know this is the place for me I can tell you that hey um couple things let's go back to this part in whole and dynamic and cancer as an organism stuff for a second this is this is good stuff so you know the cancer analysis where they start to treat cancer as an organism in an ecosystem you know some of the framings to think of it that way a recruitment of a kind of chaotic kind of like having a drunk uncle stay at your house is one way of looking at cancer right is a it's a chaotic use of resources. So that is kind of interesting right because so we're talking and going back to Steven's point about the mind being different so I'm thinking of symbiogenesis here Lin-Margulis stuff and the chloroplasts in all plant cells in the mitochondria and all animal cells were once they're artifacts of once free existing bacteria right they migrated on board with eukaryotes because it was a better deal right more leverage more de-risking higher levels of engagement with the outside right they changed your internal physicality and morphology so they could think at way higher levels they could access way more complex levels of engagement than single-cell organism including the engagements they could get through sexual reproduction which introduced additional symbolic novelty so they could be more dynamically engaged with environments right clonal reproduction does not introduce a lot of novelty so it's hard to keep up with dynamic environments in your final this is something like intelligent design but it's not so it's interesting Steven in your notion of the mind being separate because in a way the mind is formed by the social environment you know I've told the story before my sister adopting a five-month-old Chinese child who is now 22 who is raised in central Pennsylvania speaks Spanish and English does not speak Chinese does not like Chinese food does not like Chinese music and basically looks like a Chinese person but is not so is that mind a Chinese mind the problem is we don't get have any control groups on the mind formation right once you're formed you are who you are and we say okay that's it but I'd like Steven where you're going on that notion maybe the mind is an independent quantity and again the brain is an antenna to the mind so maybe the body contains the antenna components again I don't mean a real antenna but sort of and it contains it needs to be tuned it's feral and so maybe what's happening is the tuning actually creates a mind maybe the mind is not resident in the brain in a child and maybe Bayesian inferences construct a mind thank you and to maybe direct it to Alex before we go to Steven's question Dean you really focused on this sentence it may be for example that biological systems run an algorithm closer to contrastive divergence than to simulated annealing so what does that mean or what what does that reflect on yeah indeed maybe you want to give a little extra info on that just a quick quick thing I want I want to hear Steven and I want to hear everybody else but I have a question in the back sorry I have to say this in the background I've got people taking the front of my house off so I haven't been able to do much other than try to control my ADD but I have a big question for Alex once we get through the the part that Steven and Scott want to have addressed and it's specifically to what you just raised so thank you great let's go to Steven and then we'll return to Dean and the contrastive divergence yeah maybe this will bring this together is I suppose what I'm just proposing is that there is some structural biological differentiation which is will have an impact in some ways and how we think about extending cognition but if we I'm very much of the mind body environment dynamical system kind of idea so I suppose I'm talking about there being a difference biologically but probably at the macro level I'm I'm trying anyway to formulate approaches which talk about a whole system and not anything else than that but I recognize that it may open up some other cans of worms but I know that how I wonder if that's something that you're does this does this annealing relate to the mind body environment dynamic in playing out within that or is is it a little bit more separate or different to that yeah I mean the the use I was making of this contrast between contrastive divergence and simulated annealing here is was just was kind of more specific I was just thinking of so annealing the process of gradually lowering the temperature and simulated annealing was a optimization technique that mirrors that process and so I mean I guess the answer to your question Stephen is I wasn't really thinking about system environment relations here at all I was just thinking of two different sort of internal processes and how that how they might be mapped onto onto these these learning algorithms and processes in physics but so so I mean I can wait to go on to that to take Dean's question or yeah or whatever maybe Dean let's let's go for the divergence yeah I I'm not predictable I'm gonna pull up the paper because I need to explain this so Alex in the paper you you you talked in in the subsection one two the role of internal energy um let me just find it here you talked about the inverse relationship between probability and energy is exploded in most uses of energy as a cost function and optimization problems so you made that clear um and then a little further down in the paper you talked about contrastive divergence which in equilibrium distribution of a restricted Boltzmann machine and then you got into a little bit more about the comparison to the simulated annealing and then you got into section two and I'm just going to try to find it here the ensemble piece so here's my here's my question if I were to bring a if I really bring three things and and cast the widest largest Friston blanket yet around your paper because I think that's what your paper does if I were to bring a Polaroid picture a sprinkler and an astronaut together so if I were to bring identity which is where that was the primary attractor of your paper to me identity astronaut that that distribution piece and um the first one the the Polaroid the isomorphism could you explain how you brought these things that are so seemingly distal into some sort of a coherence how how did when you were sitting down because I know you did this on a very proximal level but it it has far reaching implications based on the kinds of questions that Steven has asked the ones that scott's asked the points that blue and daniel have made it it doesn't just seem to be local it seems to be really distributed as well and so I'm just really curious you wrote the paper but now that you've kind of been able to step back from it and sort of take it in in a perspective that distance must have you really really looking at this maybe maybe in interesting ways because there isn't just the stuff on the paper there's the stuff now that you've kind of reflected on and seen the inversion and and wondered holy mackerel did I open up a can of worms or what did I what have I done I'm just I'm curious about that on a personal level right um well just I mean in general my the most striking thing about how this has played out um is that people are really interested um so blue mentioned this in the discussion and um I had emails about it too are really interested in the distinction between um genuine minds and like simulations um which was completely an afterthought when I wrote this it was just like oh yeah I better deal with the scope of this and so I should put a sentence about that and I did put care into it you know I put the best sentence I could and but it wasn't my focus but um yeah I mean the the the the thing I guess the thing that that strikes me about this so it was it was right I mean it was intended to be this it was it was intended to be a very fundamental like thesis that I'm considering here so I do think it has far-reaching implications I have no idea whether it's true but right if it did it would have at least far-reaching implications I guess what I'm um but I'm less clear on is what I'm still I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop I'm waiting for someone to say here's an example of a biological system in which there's no way that you can map the cognitive um interpretation directly onto the physical interpretation because um if that's the case and if I think it's a compelling example then then I guess I'm wrong um so far so far that hasn't happened there have been some interesting suggestions um but so so I guess I'm I'm I don't know if I'm directly answering your question or Dean I'm just um to me the the the devil is still very much in the details and this is essentially a defense of a pop I was trying to I was trying to show that maybe some some a priori prima facie objections to this kind of thesis were not uh you know we're not compelling but there could be all sorts of details that merge that uh that that might question it um so I don't know if that really answers your question I'm sorry no and again it was kind of like when I was talking with blue and and Daniel in the point oh and I I brought up so I talked to people who were very much are in an inactivist camp and you know they want it they want to see that realistic and then there's the statistical camp and they really want to have that sort of top down where's the channel what's going on and I I just kind of thought what your paper did is it it opened both of those perspectives I don't know that they even have to necessarily merge or overlap I think the fact that we can we can use both and see both it's just a really interesting thing now I don't know whether that is disprovable or it should be I guess that would mean that inactivism is not a thing or statistical modeling is not a thing and yet we'd use these things so I I mean I guess they can be discounted but I don't know that they'll go away that's all I so I guess you have answered my question we can leave things open and up and not necessarily have them provide everything but but we can't just sort of discount something and throw it away until somebody as you said comes along and and says no right it doesn't work yeah and just one quick follow up on this this the one reason I wrote this paper is that I think what a lot of people find compelling about the free energy principle and the literature around that is the idea that there might be a link between physics and cognition right that there is a fundamental theory kind of emerging but it's I think it's very hard to pin down what the precise relationship it's it's hard for different people at different times it's becoming it's it's becoming clearer this has been worked out a little bit in the free energy principle literature but like it's difficult to articulate exactly what the the deep connection is between you know variational inference on the one hand and and like the behavior of physical systems so I just wanted to you know I wanted to throw out here's one version one possibility of what the supposed to be a clean precise brief statement of what that relationship could be so that you know yeah it's open-ended but so that it can be you know falsified just opposed to other other interpretations of that relation etc thanks Alex we'll go to blue and then if anyone in the chat or if Dave has a comment then feel free but first blue so Alex I think that this goes back to what you're saying in the very beginning about scale right so it's it's hard right now even to map like cognition onto like neural activation I mean I mean right now we don't know too much like too many components in the system are are murky for it to really be clear what's happening and I think you know as we talk about information going from a cell you know to from a brain to a neuron to cognition to action to bodily regulation and these kinds of things we don't really know is information compressed is it integrated like what is happening to scale a system up or down right I think that that's our hard problem yeah I mean I'm maybe I'm not sure what you mean by scaling the system up or down well in in this section you talk about the scale free nature of free energy dynamics and about how global and local free energy minimization could be understood as subsystems that are undergoing some sort of a akin process at their own scales right um yeah so I mean the thing that so I mean the thing that I wanted to react to and what blue said was the idea that we don't really know what's going on in the brain still it's very murky I mean I think that's true it's always relative right to some ideal of how much we could know but I mean what got me into this whole literature in the first place was was I was I started I starting again starting with the machine learning literature around 2012 2013 I started to feel like we actually were getting a grasp on on some of these principles how this works quite generally so like like the Helmholtz machine for example um that blue you talked about that in the point zero um I think that's a model now if the model is accurate then it seems like what's happening is as we you know as signals are sent from one neural population to another further from the sensory motor periphery the information is being compressed right so that's a particular hypothesis that there's a successive compression of information meaning that things are represented using you know lower dimensional um well vector spaces if you want to translate between vector spaces and neuronal populations right um and and that we have a pretty good idea right like this this sort of architecture explains so many things I mean that's this is this is what got people so excited about the you know predictive brain or the Bayesian brain type hypotheses is that there's just so many different things from different domains and psychology and neuroscience that this seems to this kind of perspective seems to unify um you know it's it's it's it's to be expected in a sort of Helmholtzian architecture that like you know uh you can always sort of endogenous endogenously cause the same sorts of states that you could be in as a result of perception right and that imagination and the internal generation of states has a particular role to play in learning and things like this so I'm kind of rambling but um my my my sense is that this um this sort of Bayesian Helmholtzian revolution or whatever you want to call it in recent years has has shown that we we do understand many principles of how the brain functions at the level of like at the human scale um if the question is about like how the how how other scales fold into this I um I mean there's some work that's Maxwell Renstead and Casper has been people like that have done on on understanding neuronal population dynamics in terms of active inference at that scale and so that's really interesting um uh so like what I would think of as a structural like a structural representation from the point of view of me or you like a human being you can also think of as a process of neurons performing active inference right at their own scale but I think there's to me the hard question there is how do you relate the contents of the representation at the higher scale to the contents of the lower scale that that's that's the thing that bothers me in this area yeah blue just if I could just respond really quick yeah that's exactly the the thing I mean we can see how this active inference is happening at different scales for sure but how scaling up and scaling down or or the the translation from one scale to another happens is very like mysterious still yeah totally cool so we have about 20 minutes left so if anyone has a question in the live chat otherwise we'll go to Scott and then Stephen and be preparing our thoughts for what to continue discussing in point two so Scott so um picking up in the last couple of points really interesting the I was thinking of it what was the gentleman's name who barretton who said uh information's the difference that makes a difference what was that guy's name is it um anyway the difference that makes a difference and I was thought the first difference that he's talking about is the very um a perceptual a perceptual change in the environment and the second difference is is that perceptual change relevant to you and so I want to unpack that a little bit here because contents one of the things that I was talking about my MIT presentation and one of the things I noted is Shannon tells us signal versus noise but I think but it doesn't tell us if the signal is a cancer cure or a chocolate chip cookie recipe right and so the content is left undefined there now what if so so I define living systems as autocatalytic entropy secreting structures notice I don't say they have to be embodied in any particular embodiment my son said the only reason I came up with the definition is I wanted to use the word secretion because it was juicy but he's right in part I wanted to make it juicy but the reason I raise that here is when you look at barretton or whoever it was it's better than sin anyway the difference that makes a difference um info information really maybe is what we cognitive beings call relevant differentials that we perceive irrelevant differentials are just noise and so the difference that makes a difference we call it information but there's a lot of differentials out there in the world and that's the reason I'm going there is since we're talking to a philosopher today and what I deal in as a lawyer is rhetoric and rhetoric is what you do to bring together incommensurables right and rhetoric is not like crazy glue it's like it's like um epoxy it doesn't just bring things together it also brings them together and fills gaps so the rhetoric of information is our storytelling about relevant differentials and we seek to sculpt our internal model and entrain other people's internal models because when we entrain other people's internal models with our rhetoric then it derisks our externality because other people's internal models are my externality right so the rhetoric is the tool that we use to reduce differentials or to increase relevance alignment among cognitive systems running cognition how's that I wanted to try to integrate that seemed to me the last couple of comments it felt like it may be information is an article when we put too much in seeking information maybe information the difference that makes a difference after the fact we can tell that because before the fact we can't tell what's relevant for instance suntan lotion never existed because we didn't know that photons cause skin cancer now there's an entire commercial factories and areas in the grocery store that sell suntan lotion now it doesn't mean that the sun became carcinogenic we just learned that it did so the inference the we were able to make that inference at large scales and now influence buying behavior which leverages and derisks future behaviors which is the reason that we care about information that's the difference that makes a difference anyway a couple of thoughts with this last couple of things that's that's really cool stuff I mean I I really see things similarly I think on a lot of fronts there um I think uh uh so the the question of it sounded to me like you're kind of saying like we don't have to be too fixated on this term information because it really it means differences that make a difference or being aware of differentials so I mean I I agree with that I think um I mean I again I always go back to just the the uh sort of bedrock stuff so like I think I think Shannon's interpretation of information was actually a little bit unnecessarily epistemic I think it could have been just doxastic so he says you know it's coming to know something it's like well but we could generalize that and just talk about what one comes to believe and then I think if we have if we work with that notion which isn't information anymore as Shannon defined it because he talked about knowledge but whatever that generalization of information is called I think that would really um conducts acetic logic thanks um yeah so um so that's that's all that I think we're getting at with the concept of information but what what I think gets really interesting and difficult philosophically is okay so obviously there's there's self-information right so there's just like something pings my retina and or you know something downstream from that and I notice a little blip in my visual field right and that's that's something I'm aware of so that's information about itself anyway but then the you know the more important signals carry all sorts of information about other things meaning they I guess they lead us to predict and expect other differences beyond themselves and so and so the tricky thing to me is okay so I take myself to be this system of interacting parts neurons and also other things obviously that um sort of embodies a perspective and the information that a signal carries depends on that whole system and how this signal impacts it right and and you know one of my neurons is a entirely different type of system here's my daughter has to tell me something what's up you got ice cream awesome sorry um sorry that's cool that's awesome um yeah so your generative model's on a live stream right now I'm sorry that's cool yeah um I don't know so I was saying something about neurons and then now I'm thinking about this cream um basically yeah so so the like that the question for me is so like I think of content right the information content of a signal for a person as relative to the the person to the system and so if you've got a completely different system with a different structure I think you can sort of compare the structures of the systems to see how similar the content is right but I think it has to be at that whole level of the sort of holistic entire system level that you need to make these content comparisons um so I don't remember whether that directly links back to where we started this but um nice yeah in one one quick thought on that is the the difference that makes a difference which is also a big key term in the philosophy of biology like the mutation is the difference that makes a difference for something um in active inference it's the difference in observation that makes a difference for either the generative model updating that's inference or the difference that makes a difference for action so we have a way to talk about it and then also um the doxastic note not my total area but it looks like this is how we can work towards pluralism across perspectives because if it's framed as one person believes that it's hot and one person believes that it's cold if there's only one truth and we're going to play tug of war then we have to fight but if it's true that one person believes it's hot and it's true that one person believes it's cold there's no problem there still might be differences on what temperature the people want the room but by framing things about what a perspective or a system or an agent believes to be true or just believes period could be an ironic belief all of a sudden we can interact with multi-agent systems and deal with them in a way that still has local logic so Steven and then anyone else so thanks just sort of closing out I suppose in a way um I'd be curious how this this work with beliefs that has a nice as as Daniel said it bridges action-orientated approaches and pragmatic approaches with more epistemic approaches because beliefs tend to be beliefs about what will happen when something is done in the world often not necessarily and I'm curious how this paper and this kind of underpinning relates or help to inform where you were going with a new paper that was intriguing about the folk psychology and how maybe that that there's some sort of that's where one of the bridges out from this paper into you know folk psychology being how we kind of intuitively believe the world is based on our experiences so there is a certain element of like whether that's how it structures in the brain it's kind of how we might structure it before science tells us something else in a in a certainly in a socio-cultural sense so I'd be interested in how that extension plays out with this paper yeah so so there's definitely a direct connection between this paper and and that one I mean I wanted to write a sort of sequel to this paper where I talked about specifically desires and how those the the sort of the way those would be grounded in thermodynamics according to this picture or co-native states in general like the states with a world to mind direction of bit um and so then I started talking to to Ryan Smith and others about this and we ended up you know co-authoring a quite different paper that has some commonality but I still want to write um I still want to write one that's more on the thermodynamics side of things but the connection is in this you know the sort of identity thesis that at the end of this paper I argue for it by way of David Lewis who who one of the terms in the identity is the implicit definition that folk psychology gives us of mental states um so we haven't really gotten into that maybe we will next week or something I don't know there's Ramsey sentences I'd love to talk about the we got we got the Ramsey sentences we got the sleep wake simulation yeah other topics that we will really look forward to exploring yeah let's please get into that but um like basically I mean I don't know as usual I feel I always feel like I'm not doing an adequate job of answering questions I'm sorry but um by folk psychology in this context I'm really thinking of just our it's sort of like theory of mind right it's like our implicit theory of the way people including ourselves um function so I think that that's essential even though it's not highlighted to the end that's essential to what I'm doing in this paper because if you don't have mental states to define then you don't have any identity relation because that's one of the terms in the identity relation although you could also I guess maybe if you're doing pure Bayesian modeling you could just write down a bunch of states and equations for how they update um without thinking about folk psychology at all but but I guess the point of this is that um if one of the terms in this relation is the mind well I think folk psychology I don't actually love that term I mean it's okay it's just a philosopher's term of art right I just mean intuitive human psychology um I think is one of the terms in this relation cool scientists are folk too so cognitive diversity means that we have all different ways of knowing and there may not be one default or simply intuitive way of working or knowing because what's intuitive to one person will be out of the groove for somebody else and that's why the movement towards pluralism in terms of our understanding of ideas and of ecosystems is so interesting to talk about and see connected to active inference any um thoughts or what would be something that somebody is excited from the conversation today or thinking about how we could resolve or at least introduce again next week I think a few of the things we have written down is the sleep wake simulation what is that agent doing what does it do in terms of your model we have the Ramsey sentences and where does that style of logical representation come into play we have empirical validity what kind of experiments are you interested in or curious about what what else could be interesting we could still talk about the the contrast of divergence versus simulated annealing thing um I just really briefly wanted to follow up and say I think when I say intuitive psychology I mean I don't mean to suggest that there's just one of those I think that but I do think we can sort of average over different perspectives to get that so like the individual perspectives ultimately are what's real but if we want to talk about things at an abstract level we could average over those and I think that's kind of what Lewis tries to do so maybe this is something we'll get into next week um but really he when he talks about folk psychology he he he engineers it so that it doesn't have to be that there's just one set of statements that embodies what people think about psychology it's like a disjunction of different sets that mostly overlap um and just yeah I mean pluralism is really I think is um is a good ideal in many contexts um I actually think this would be interesting this might be controversial I think it's not always the goal in science because if you start out with pluralism then you just don't do anything right it's like okay everything's fine as it is but I think sometimes we're seeking a unifying underlying explanation and if you accept pluralism at the start then you won't get there that tension which is okay pluralism everybody must be pluralist and this is the only way it's actually absolutist and singular at a higher level and so pluralism means that we each do have our perspectives and yet there is a way of working it's not just the same thing as saying we have an absolute answer and it's that there's no answer that's the kind of local logical paradoxes that we see all around us that's a great point Stephen and then anyone else yeah that's that's the um the rabbit hole of postmodernism oh we don't want to go but it's it's good it this is a really rich conversation and uh I think like you say it's uh to be able to jump from Helmholtz to some of these transcultural things is uh you know it shows you that it's pretty foundational some of the stuff we're touching so that's great so thanks for a lovely talk today I really enjoyed it thank you yeah thanks a lot any closing notes there Alex otherwise we're all gonna probably re-listen and reread and think about what would be good to ask next week yeah I know thank thank you all it's it's really fascinating and fun and uh just want to do more of it next week I'm very uh I didn't have anything else to say but I kept speaking I'm not sure why same we do that do that sometimes it happens so thanks again everybody who's participating live and on live stream and we will see you next week

Membalam kayıraman, Membalam şahit oldum. Membalam kayıraman iyiydi, korkmaz iyiydi. O boyda yetimsiliğinden böyük edmiştim. Atası öyle de on sekiz yaşı var iyiydi. Şimdi bulan dataların da bir dahanı sekiz yaşı var. Birinin on yaşı var. Yetimsiliğinden böyük edmiştim. Böyük ettim, öze de körüldü gitti. Akırı da uşağımın birine. Memluşağım veten uyrunda gittim. Bin içe gün önce özünü yandırarak intihar eden Sabirabat Ravun Galagay'ın kentisakini Gazi Elifin Ceferova'nın ailesi kanalımıza müsaade verip, sosyal şebekelerden müzakir edilen bazı meseleleri aydınlık getiren Gazi'nin anası Rukiye Ceferova, evladının ne için intihar ettiğinin sebebinin şeysine de karanlık kaldığını bildirir. Ananın en büyüğü istek ve terebi ise Elifin Ceferova şehid-i istatsu verilmezdi. Bir de görürdün, gelirdi. Buradan anlayan hala semek gelirdi. Bir de görürdün, deyip ki deyip neşe ersebilirsin, ne bileyim, ne bileyim, ne bileyim. Ne sende büyük maaleseflerden çaktırmak olmayan dahil emirli ve cihetler dolanış olur. Aynı girimi yettiğim maharbe başlayayım, aynı biri könüldü. Ben de çocuğu da pambalı yıkırdım. Oradan da zengelediler ki o buğuz gelir maharbeye. Bir de çocuğu da pambı sahnesine düz bayan komata gittim. Orada, ben dedim, dedim aybala bir diğer dümdüne nihara gittim. Bu iç uşağı boyu para gittim. Dedim ki könülde gittim. O gelen oğlanlardan eskiydi öyle mi ki? Ben de gittim, könüldü. Üreel uşağıydı evimde. Könülde gittim. Fizooli, 27 başlarda, aynı biri könülde gittim. Şu uşağı da yaralandı. Kıver geldiği yaramı soru. Şu uşağı Fizooli Kospitalı'nda yattı. O'na Gence Kospitalı'na gündezdi. O'na Gazak'ta yattı. Sağ olsun, Gazak'ın kâğıtı vereceğim halim. Günde değildi. Gelir mi? Degey, gelir degey, gelir de. Yokluydu oranın kâğıtı. İzrah açma. Ondan sonra evde uşağı alamıyordu. Danışlı oradan zenginlerdi. Hemşe gelip yokluyordu. Zengeliydi, danışırdı. Oradan Gospitalı'dan. Gazak Gospitalı'na sonra gündezdi. Papani Gospitalı'na. Orada biraz yattı. Ondan sonra gündezdi. Çekalama yine. Golağının biri eşilmirdi. Gözünün biri yakışı görmirdi. Çekalıyordu. Çekalemizi yavaş yavaş, tedrizen çıktı. Hüseyin'e kim gelmedi? Çekalıyordu. Başlangıda yattı. 3 defa başlangıda yattı. Böğrenin biri temiz eleveci gurumunu büzüşmüştü. İşlenirdi. Maaçı, burda el edemezsenin her kim ayrılmayı ayrılmamıştı. Yok, her kim. O baile de ki sağlamına kadar. Her zaman ahır dağlarda 3-4 ay olardı ki pensiyel kesmiştiler. Kaldı ki bu muaddi meyenevi kömeğe bir keç zamandı o hiz. Ama muadide cahitten elbin eskerliği de olan da rezem verdim kömeğe geliyormuştu. Sonra meyen özümen sınıfı yoldaşım vardı. Habibi süyündüm. Nefci şirketini deşti. O kömeğe geliyormuştu. Pırat kuzadına poliyardına geliyormuştu. Sonra belediye kömeğe geliyormuştu. Aslında geldi, eve geldiğinde hamsi videolarda var. Ona eve gelene sonra oradayım aşağıda yaktan sonra evde yine de gittim aşağıya. Hele bir bin pozu kantuzya almıştı. 3-4 daha pensiyel aldı. Şurada dedi ki meyen pensiyemi dayandırıbılar artım olacak mı neyse. Geldi ki meyen pensiyemi dayandırıbılar yakışık bu meyen uşağlarda 2 tane körfe balası var. Neyler şeyliyim. Doğlandırılmak lazım. Ama evde hiç vakti anlaşmaz ki aynen özümü böyle iliyelim iliyelim. İtalyası hemşe değil ki ikimiz kimle buluşmuşum. Ama gerek kıymet verirler. 5-8 dana 10-15'in biribiler vatan uğrunda onunla çesiz döğüştü midelde. Yani ki meyen oğlum bilmiremi neyse gittim. Bizim bir hektar sahibimiz var iyiydi. O muharbeye gidin de ikimiz anavala pambık etmiştik. Sonra ben bir eladan da pambığı yıkırdım. Orada elbici burada pambık içi yollandı. Azalanda oraya yıkırdım. Sonra geldim. Dedim ki gittim öz yektar pambığımı yığındı. Yerdim de mahallede. Bancımız vardı. İlebilmeyen pensiyarlar bancı çözürdü. O kastı olmuş da banc götürmüştü. Yerini kastı olmuş da yuva göre banc götürmüştü. Gittim pambığı yığmaka. Gittim gördüm. Pambamıza yıkıp atardı. Genelde dedim. Gittim valla. Ama pambığından bir şey dedim. Pambamıza yıkıp atardı. Dedim ben burada olsaydım. Ben pambamıza yıkıp atardım. Bir de iki tane çölpe aşağıya alıyorum. Ben gene dedim. Allah hiç kime baladara çekmesin. Bilmiyorum. Ama gene dedim. Ben kâşi dedim. Ben mihirvan khanıma da mürâcih ederim. İlhamer yemedim. Sen de patasın. Sen de anasın. İstiyersen balvanese olsun. Ben de istemedim. Ama iki tane çölpe balasılar. Çok hâşediyor. Birinci muğun günahcarlığa takılsın. Oğluma günahcarlığı istiyorum. İkinci, oğluma şahittik istiyorum. Şahittik istatusu verirsin. Balaların var. İki tane oğlu var. Evnen tahmin olunuzu. Pensiyaları kesilsin. Uşarlarım. Tersini inen. Evi ki, eski hayat yoldaşında, eski uşaklarında, psikoloji şehit de değişiklik de olan hamsına bakılsın. Ben oğlum veten oğluna gidiyorum. Ben oğlum gitti. Kantuzya aldı veten. Aldı yaralandı, geldi. Ben oğlum zanın vetene feda ediyor. Ben oğlum veten için geliyorum. Çok hâşediydim. Ben işteydim. Ben eleveki buradan elvin maharbede olan maharbeden eleveki gitti. Giden sonra ben elvinin balalarını götürdüm. Gittim burada ilgim şirketi var. Mehmet Mellin'in şirketine oran. Dolanı şıkla alakadar meyişe götürsün. Ben altmış altı yaşımda. Sak olsun. Allah kömeğe olsun. Çok meyhörmet iledi. İşe kaybı iledi. Elevi bir yardım köme. İşe kaybı iledi. Ben orada işleyirdim. Uşaklarım Mehmet Mellin apartı sünnettirildi. Öst hesabına. Şehid âlelerinde kıyriyehti. Çok yakışı bir insandı. Ancak elvin olan hadise olanda elvin demedi ki ben böyle iliyedim. Neyse eleveki hemşe çölden gelende böyle narazı kimi de. Eleveki diyedik ki öyle şey olarak böyle. Ehtiyacımız olanda ehtiyac evde dolanışları ehtiyac olan da birine yaşayış olaya. Bize psikoloji hesablaşırdı. Ama o günü elimin hiç demedi ki ben geldim nese böyle iliyeceğim. Özgün Mehmet yani hadise iki aydığı pensiyah altmıştı. Dedi şenem artım olacağına olacaksa ya pensiyahı kesin. Ben bilmem ki kimlerse narazı kala. Neyse hemşe diyirdik ki sağlamlıktan narazıla beleyirdi ondan sonra. Geceleri yapabilmirdi, hesablaşırdı, istenirdi ondan. Gidirdi o evde o vakit de demedi ki kimlerse sındırdı. Yani burada o ev demedi de. Ben ne bileyim orada gidip danışıp deyip ben birbirlerim. Hiç kim bize zengelemedi. Bir adam zengeleyip demedi ki elimin bufışırdı. Hiç kim demedi. Ben öyle şeyi işlememişim. Bilmiyorum. Ne dediğimi. Ama elimin hüzür vaktı yas vaktı. O hansı şerefsiz kanaldırsa mıyım kesmeyin diyeyim. Hansı şerefsiz kanaldırsa ki izran hâkimi geldiği izran hâkiminle anası izran hâkiminle pabarlı. İzran hâkimin yas kâneye bırakıp. Ben öz uşağımın hüzürünü siyasete çevirebilmez. O bir hörmez size yollarda. Düşümen düşümenin kapsına gelse o yasak olmaz. Ben hiç vaktim. Ben öyle şeydim. Onda gele burada ya ölüm olardı. Ondan sonra ne düşündü ne hadsen düşündü olardı. Ben de bizden ondan başka uşağım kalıp. O da gidip kimse vurardı. Kimize işleri alınsın diye. Kimize öz işin düzü koşsun diye. Ben öz uşağımın yasın siyasete çevirebilmezdim. Hiç ben izran hâkimin birinci kere miydi görürdüm. Yas kâneye gelmiştim, onu da görürdüm. Ben hiç vaktim. Ben öyle oğlanın anası diyelim ki öyle oğlanı büyügülmemiştim. Öz könüllü maharbeye giden oğlanın anası ya. Gıyresiz oğlanın anası diyelim. Vetenin elimi satmayayım sana. O oğlanın anası yanına. Ben öz oğlanı hiç vaktime satmayayım. Baraştırma gelin ama telebilirim. Ben oğlanın Eşhitarın gelişimi anlattım. Yok yok. Ancak başlıyor. Ben oğlanın sünayeti günahcara takılsın. İkinci beyaglarda oğlanın hâşeriyem yok. Telebilirim. Oğlanın şahittik statusu verilsin. Balalarına hükümet bir günahlasın. Onlara el verilsin pensiyel kesilsin okumaklarına hakimine her bir şeyin düzelsin. Her bir şeyin her bir şeyin hükümet karşılıklı gelersin. Meyan oğlanın veten oğlunda gidi. Meyan oğlanım şahid oğlanım. Meyan oğlanım psikoloji problemi maharbeye giden oğlanın yokuydu. Psikoloji problemi olsaydı meyan oğlanın pensiyelardı. Meyan oğlanım ahılık hastalığa anasında askerde mahalleye gidi. Meyan oğlanım psikoloji problemi meyan oğlanım psikoloji problemi yeralanmakı başında kan tuzya almakı maharbet oldu. Mağarca bir de maşlakaya gidi. Maşlakaya gidi o da oğlanım eliyip ben ebele ben ebele dermanlara attırdı. Ben ebele dermanlara attırdı. O da tersilelemedi. Yakışan egele meyan oğlanım da alınsaydı. Meyan oğlanım niye eliliyordu? İkinene balası vardı. Ne kadar pensiyel alırdı ve hem pensiyası kesilmişti. Taksabattık el emirdi kent samanatı da belir kentimize belir maşkını maharbeden kabak kardaşa almıştı. Yani ki taksabattıkıza deyip dolanarsam tecr maşkını biraz almıştı maharbe başladı. Maşkını da kaldı. O da sürmürdü maşlılığı. Sürürdü de böyle gelindiğiyle ama o taksabattık yok. El abi gelir yeri yok idi diyelim. Yok. Bir ektar törpah sahiimiz var. Pahat törpahı. O da su yoktu. İmkânımız yoktu ki biz o eker. O ekmeğe maddi vaziyettim durumum yoktu ki ben gidelim. O bir ektar eker. Gazmin kardaşa Emrur Ceferovi ise ailenin şehrisi temin edilmesi. Gaziye muharbeden kayttıktan sonra maddi yardımlar edilmesi ile bağlı yayılan haberlerim nasip et bildirip o bu haberlerin yalan olduğunu deyirim. Tanışır ki uzun yıllar önce onlara verilen bir ektar paytor pahanda su varma mümkün olmadığı için ekim biçim işleri aparılır. Kardeşinin işle temin edilmesine şehrisi anasının işle temin edilmesindeyse anasının özü teşebbüsü gösterip. Ve mükterif zamanlarda Elvin Ceferovi ümmelikte 11 bin manadkıl vesaire yani bilmiren biliriz ya yoksa değilim ben dayında yaşamıyorum şehrinde yaşıyorum. Elvin'den mütomada olarak yani alakası ahırlıydık. Son defa ben bura evveliydi gelende. Biri yokta iki günlüğü geldim dağıttım. O da hemen demişti ki biraz ağırlarım var onu demişti. Bir de pensiyasın ayarımı yedi kesmiştiler dediğine gülüm. Ben durup demedim. Ben pensiyan aparı yok. Sebebini bilirdim ya kesmiştim. Sebebe o idi. Çoğun senetlerin müdafi enaldır iğne vermiştiler. Yaparı vermişti müdafi enaldır iğne her bici pensiyası almalıydı. Bilmiren 720 yoksa 820 mad pensiyan olmalıydı. O alırdı 420 mad. Onun da 300 madı prizidente kaydıydı. Çönüllü yettiğine yürü. 120 madı pensiyyiydi. Umumi 420 mad eliydi. Ama o sosyal şeveşe de yazdılar için ben emeğe halini sosyal müdafi enaldır iğne danıştım. Dedim ki ve siz orada yazılıp 950-820 mad mimmahtaya yakın veya mimmahtan çok pul alırdı da. Bilensiydi deyip ha. Olarım dediğine gülüm. Oları da neye hesablıyordular. Bunu cüya yaşat fondu düzeltip dostu hidmetininle yaşırlaştırmıyor. Vallahi yaşırlaştırmıyor. Ben özüm düzeltmişim. Onu da men olarak dedim. Olabilir ki yaşırlaştırma dost hidmetinin tercihinde olur. Ancak ben düzeltmişim de mencidip hâşelemişim işe götürübiler bunu. Yani bunun dost hidmetine yaşat fonduna hiçbir haydiyatı yoktu. Diğer taraftan anam, iş meselesinin dost hidmetinin tercihinde olabilir. Ama yine de diyelim. Orada oranın rehberinin kardeşi memmamının anamın sinif yoldaşıdı. İki uşağı götürdü. Yani biraz veziyet piste. Ondan sonra işe oldu. Problem değil. Pambık zavvodunda böyle işlerde iş değil. Neyse orada o işe düzeldi. İşte diyelim o değerler neyse nezaret veriyor. Başka mesele. O da şey diyelim. İki yüz doksan mat yoksa üç yüz mat verirler orada da. O da dediler çünkü dost hidmetinin haydiyatı yoktu. Bunu da anam özü yedi bir şey düzeldi. Onda da hiç bir yaşat fondu çoğuma eğlenmeyi boş dövbetti. Diğer taraftan orada değiller ki 11.000 pulu verildi. Birincisi benim bildiğim yeri 11.000 pulu şehide verirler. Kimle verildi 11.000 pulu? Cüya kardeşime verildi. Altı bin beş yüz beş bin altı yüz bir verildi. 4.400 bir verildi. Neyse böyle bir sövbet değiller. Sosyal modafiyan hazirinde senet verip siz onu asla çekivermişsiniz. Ben onu demişim olara. Pesat ne var ki? Biri gol çekip pesat veririz. Onu ben yani kabul edemem. Ondan da diğer taraftan yazı başı tesarrufatı var. O da birisi birisi birisi birisi birisi birisi tekpe 파일 hâạença sabîr hââ sturâ tesarrufat görürsünüz. Ben size can spoken y hospital derler. Onun da buna hiç baidiyat yoktu, hem de hiç muharbe yok uyudu. Ben özüme askeri yediğim yani o o vakton cihid. Böyle. Diğer taraftan demirler cihir, mimmat verilir. İdime kardeşim şahit. Sizden telebim o düçeyi, mene, ııı Heder Ali'ye fondumdan da Seder'i zengelenmişti. Mene zengelenmişti. Yani tapşırıblar. İsteyiz nedir mene değiller. Dedim bizim isteğimiz birinci o düçeyi, sebepçerler tapılsın. Içimizin övbede, menim kardeşinin şahitli istatsu verildi. Sebebi de yine diyilen menim kardeşim muharbeda kırk dört günlüğü özür muharbeden çıktı geldi, burada şehid oldu. Ve o oradan gelen de ona onsullar zanlı şahit istatsu verilmişti. Yani medalı verilip, vatan uğrunda medalı verilip. Demirsiz ki psikoloji problemi var idi. Mene bildiğim evde o internette yayılıp ki icra bahçesi burada. Mene ona işitmem şimdi. Izra bahçesi burada diyecek psikoloji problemi vardı. Yakışık psikoloji problemi var bir şahitli istatsu. Psikoloji problemi var idi. Ne ve hansı sebebe göre siyanslara, hansa bir siyansa gönderiyiz. Psikiyatır yanına gönderiyiz. Beş altı ay idi o malzala bilmirdi. Neden imkansız ıldan? Niye? Hamdiyeçi budur. Yakışık psikolojini ki münçüde almayıp muharbe vakti vatan uğrunda verip zanın. Bu vatan uğrunda yedim. Psikolojimi o vakti alıp meşdagatı da yatayıp, papalinde de yatayıp. Hala o birinci yattı fizüklük, her sakınasında muharbeden genelde iki defa yoldan kaçırıyor muharbe vakti hele yaralı yaralı ki ben gidireyim dövüşmeye. Yaşlı bütün Azerbaycan yok. Bütün dünya Azerbaycanları onu efsilenir, o dün gittik, kardeş men torpağa verdim. Ölse ona mağulillegabın mais berkudar o verip. Zanab genel alması. Bütün sizin o kameralar var idi. Ağaçların üstündeki kameralarım hem kardeşini çıkardırdı. Bütün muharbede, ne gede her biti yoldaşları var idi, hamsı gelmişti bura. Hamstonun başına indicildi ki elbin olmaz idi, bir soktan ölmüştü. Sokunu çıkardım. Yüzden çok şehit çıkardı bu sinin de. Ne gede yaralı çıkardım? Öz başliğetin altın çıkardı bu. Ne oldu? Muharbede şehit olmadı. Cerd'i burada oldu. Psikoloji problemliği malzelerdir idiler. Izra mesela için diyeceğim ben bir yılda görmürem eline. O bir yılda görmürem artık onu siz paylaşan da indi. Adiyatı grumlar neydi ne değil bileceyler. Izrabaycan açıldı gelmeyin. Yani ben düzün tarafın diyen, düzün keseri yoktu. Yalan neye dansım gelmeyin bura. Yatsa gelip bura. Yine değilim. Man kim ise itti hamileyebilmerem. Açıkı değil. Kardeşim videoda der ki izra başçısı beledi beledi beledi beledi. Yine de adiyatı grumlar, adiyatı grumlar kardeş. Ezi cürnaatler, adiyatı grumlar bundan yanımlar haklanır. Bu bizden seviyesinde bir mesele değil. Inşallah da ki hak kadalat öz yerini tapacaksa da zemene tersi ilyan oldu ki o video çeşiliş var ya orada. Video çeşilişten dört saat sonra bu hakkı hesap olur. Dört ya beş saat sonra. O vakti en azından mene yıkardılar. Çünkü kardeşin mene işidir. Mene yıksaydılar. Veya da o ödün yandıranda telefonda görseldiydiler ki kardeşin seninle danışmak sihir. Vallahi ödün yandırmayacaktı. En azından psikoloji ona tesir elemeliydiler. Bir yarım saat on beş dakika ondan danışmalıydılar ki insan da da artık bu yolu tutup demeli sebebi var. Bu dokuzu mene de marakladı. Bu dokuzu var ya. Dokuzu bu çimlerle görüşüyor. Dokuzu çimle ne problemi olur? Bunu çim sındırıp o mene tersi eleliği için yani sen sınav soğulan değilsen. Senin gol vudizvi çim sındırıp başımı yere koyabilmezler ancak. Ama diyeçim yani dünen çok pis sındırdılar. Ele sındırmalı değilydiler. Yani böyle bir özel işler işlerdir orada. O sözlerinin altında çok şeyler yatır. Yani bunu da hemen Azerbaycan'ın Azerbaycan'ın üstkasının prizlerindeydi. Ali Başkan mandağımız, Cenab-ı Allah'a meleğe ve mehriban hanımla yüzümüzsüb diyelim ki benim kardeşimin bu vaziyete salan sebep karar. Zezalansın. Kardeşime şahit satsu verildiğin. Içiden evladı kalıp ben o gün bir işinle bağlı getirdim. Mene yazdılar uşağları altından ki bunu da ordaçlara denin. Mene uşağları deyiz ki onlardan isteğimiz otcağı tamzı geri kaytarsın. Ben özüm muhtum hakladım. Yani orada gittim orada daha mı pis oldu? Pis olmak ucu artık geçti. Geri kaydan değil mi kardeşim? Sadece hak edaleti yerin tapsın ruhu şahit olsun. Yine değilim. Bunda öyle olanlar Zezalansın, Tapılsın, İstintagacal bonunsun, olsa iş gelir. Şehitli satsu verilsin, zanlı olan vakti vatanoğlu'nda medaliyle tertip olunup canap prezidentimi sertifeliydi. Özü de ev geydiyatına düşmüştü. Iki de evladı kalıp. Ben şehirde kaldım. Ölümde kirayda kaldım. Ben vallahi ölüm Avrupa dünya çempiyonu yani bir defa da olsun prezidentin kapsın dövmemişem ki bana ev veririm. Evden özü yazılmıştı geydiyata düşmüştü kardeşim. Iyi bir başta versinler. Onun İstanbul'u. Çünkü benim olayım üstünde gözüm olsun. Ikisi de oradadır. Yani iki tane o olan böyledir. Iki tane eskiler böyledir. Her şeyden tahmin eylesinler. Ama birinci nöbede İstanbul için sebep çağrılar tap olsun, kardeşime şahitliyiz de asıl verilsin. Bu kadar. Oradan da bunu demey isteyelim ki ben aynen ııh demeli yasın ikisi günü mezvur olu video paylaşmışım. Çok haşeriydim. Ezez cürnalistler ne bileyim o tiktoktu ne bileyim sosyal şerefe fenomenlerdi bilmeyenlerdi. Orada yazırlar ki cüya icrabahçısından men kardeşi anası cüya pul alıp ona göre icrabahçısını bura ııı heyte bırakmışık. Buradan üstutup size diyelim. Bir çiliviz menliyiviz gayret viz olsun. Men o bazı aileler kimi değilim. Kardeşimin kanın, neslimin kanın ne de neslimi ne pula satın ne pulun satın alan değilim he ne de pulun satan değilim. Bir aklımızı başımıza toplayın ne hissede paylaşanda hansa bir menafiye göre paylaşmıyor. Hayşeriysem sizden. Doğru düzgün paylaşan bir kişiliği viz olsun. Biz hal halırda yaslıyık. Bu şahit tez tez bizim aileyen şehidi değil. Bütün Azerbaycan'ın şehidi. Biz görününe paylaşırız. Benim heytime bu deyge düşmenim gelse ben onu kovabilmerem. Ben onu kovsam benim ölümün ruhuna hörmezsizliydi. Ha yasımız kurtaracağı sabah yetti de. Yas kurtaranından sonra kardeş. Yine diyelim, aidiyeti grumlar artık meşguldu bundan. Bir başa Mehri Banka'nın İlham Aliyev'in yani emridir. Yine diyelim. Bize zengilere de geldi yukarıdan. Inşallah hak edalet özelin tapacak.

This is Stockmer 10248A. We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. You're new and used car headquarters. Today we are checking out this super clean 2016 Chevy Cruze. This vehicle has the 1.4 liter turbocharged four cylinder motor which pumps out 153 horsepower. From this HD video you will be able to tell that this car is extremely clean all the way around inside and out. Siren red tint coat is the color we shoot all of our videos in 1080p. So if you have HD capabilities on your computer tablet or smartphone device turn them on right now because it is like you're right here looking at the car with me and definitely your best way to check out the vehicle before seeing it in person comes with the painted factory alloy rims no scuffs or scrapes on that rim right there. Brand new Firestone all season 21560R16 tires. You can still see the little wear knobs on them. We put those on in our safety inspection and they are brand new all the way around this car. Headlight lenses are nice and clear. It has the LED fog lights. No dense dings or cracks on that front bumper. The hood is an excellent condition as well. Passengers side fenders in excellent shape too. And the passenger side rim no scuffs or scrapes on there. If you go down this side of the vehicle take note of how clean the body is how reflective and mirror like that paint is we take these HD videos so if you are far away. Even if you're close by and just cannot make the trip down you can still see the car hear the car and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here so that when you do get here there are absolutely no surprises. In fact we offer a Summit Auto Fastpass option where you can go right on our website and apply for financing, get pre-approved, figure out your payment and even appraise your trade if you have one. All on our website at summitauto.com those back tires are brand new as well and no scuffs or scrapes on that rim. As we come around to the back of the vehicle rear bumper covers in excellent condition. No major dense dings or cracks on that and the deck lid is in excellent shape as well. Tail lamps are nice and clear. Back quarter no denser dings in that and this back rim is an excellent shape for full disclosure. Down the rest of the side very nice and clean power mirrors and we're just going to take a quick look in the trunk here. I wanted to show you how clean it is back here and that there is a set of factory floor mats, carpet floor mats with this car, spare tires back here as well. Very nice and clean and I do believe those seats do fold down for extra storage. Inside the LT package gives you the black cloth interior there are no rips or tears on the seats. Really nice condition. Power driver seat, factory all-weather floor mats, auto headlamps, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, power windows, power locks, power mirrors and as we hop inside you can see that this car only has 33,394 miles. Instrument cluster is very nice and clean. Steering wheel has Bluetooth and audio controls on the right and cruise controls on the left. Steering wheel itself is in nice shape. Comes with the Chevy MyLink system, AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities. I do believe this is where your back camera shows up as well. It does have a CD player, climate control down there, all-weather floor mat on that side. Remember you do get those carpeted floor mats with the car in back. So two sets of floor mats with this car. Passing the seats very clean as is the headliner. Map lights and on-star capabilities in the review mirror. We'll take a quick look at the back seats and then we will check out under the hood. Back seats are just as clean as front seats. No rips or tears back here. It does have the latch child safety system for your child car seats. And like I said these seats do fold down pretty nice and flat for extra storage if you need to haul anything else. And the back carpeting and floor mats are in nice condition as well. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video you will have been able to tell just how clean this car is all the way around inside and outside. You can make a smart buying decision. From the comfort of your own home under the hood we have the 1.4 liter turbocharged four cylinder motor. Engine bay is very clean runs very smooth. This car has been fully safety to and inspected by our service shop has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off. And this car is 100% ready to go to see more pictures of this car. One of our other 450 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, wranglers, halftons, three cotertons, one tons. You name what we got to go to our website. www.summitauto.com full pictures and descriptions of every single vehicle from two locations all at www.summitauto.com and if you'd like to check out more HD videos you can go to www.summitauto.com.

Well ex manager slash friend He got me this as a housewarming gift. It's actually the first housewarming gift I received and what this is is Dental water floss. Well, it's called oral irrigator and it's just basically floss with water so I love flossing I floss every single day and after I saw This and the reviews for these oral irrigators I felt like I had to have it all the dentist recommended this instead of the usual floss picks or floss strings This was a bit expensive like it was a little over a hundred dollars But my manager was still sweet enough to get this for me. So thank you I don't know if I'll be able to show you guys how to use it because it's It won't be that pleasant to look at but if you guys look up like oral irrigators on YouTube You'll be able to find a lot of videos on it So it removes food debris while massaging gums gently so it has point six millimeter Ultrafine water flow So funny I how I get excited by oral hygiene, but oral hygiene is super important guys I'm going to charge it right now. I'm so excited to use this. All right. That's all I have to share with you guys today So let me show you guys how strong the water comes out of here You have three options You have the soft option and then the massaging option and then this is the hard option pierced the tissue It's insane Sometimes if you do it wrong like your gums might bleed, but it's amazing Hey guys, I'm about to step out of my house to go to the mart Finally after I moved in I haven't gone to the mart yet Just because I was kind of reluctant because of the coronavirus But I need some side dishes to eat my rice with so I'm going to be brave and go to the mart. Thankfully, there's a big mart near my house So I just have to walk like five minutes to get there But first I'm gonna throw some old clothes and shoes out and for my grocery bag I have my handy dandy Urban Outfitters shopping bag Sojung would love this area right here Feels a bit heavy. Hopefully it doesn't rip on me I'm done guys. I didn't even drink water this morning and I went straight to the mart Which is very Unlike me because I drink water first thing in the morning when I wake up But I guess I was like in such a rush to go to the mart. Anyways, time to put all this stuff that I bought into the fridge So my fridge is really empty right now. All I have are probiotics and this lush face pack and the sesame snack that Subin's mom made me and Yeah, it's just empty. I have some pomegranate juice here That's about it. Oh and milk Then in the freezer, I have some Food garbage. I really hate keeping it in here just because it feels so unsanitary But if I don't there'll be like flies and stuff. I have some meat that I got as a gift from wonderful Heejoo who's on YouTube as used beauty and For ladies code seventh year anniversary. She sent me this gift through Kakao and said that it's like her way of showing us things for the past seven years because she's she was a fan of ladies code I was really touched and I'm just waiting to eat this at the right moment unlike a celebratory day or something But thank you Heejoo so much. It was so sweet and so unexpected I have some flax seeds that I like to put in my yogurt sometimes I got these side dishes from the mart because there was four for ten dollars Yay, finally.

I'm just gonna take out how much ever I'm going to eat and put it on a separate plate. I don't have plates right now So I bought some plastic plates from the mart So if I just eat out of this because the saliva will touch the food, it will rot a lot faster All right, I should have done that last because now I have all this sauce on my chopsticks God, it's so hard to pick this up with chopsticks. Oh my gosh I swear I'm usually good at chopsticks. This is just so slippery. Oh my god.

garage damage in Sheboygan County Fire, two arrested after drug bust in Manor to Walk, Sheboygan ranks in top 20 best cities for driving. These and other local stories are coming up on this edition of Community News Review. This is Community News Review, a service WSDS-TV news content, divided by WHBL. I'm Maddie Fister, and this is Community News Review for Thursday, August 29, 2019. An investigation continues in the town of Holland after a garage fire Wednesday night. Sheboygan County officials say the call came in around 8.30 at a house located on North 2422 Cardinal Lane. The fire was contained to the garage but didn't leave behind some damage to the adjacent garage as well. No one was injured. Labor Day holiday traffic will get a break from construction this weekend. According to Wisconsin State Trooper Tracy Drager, most road construction work is being put on hold for the holiday. As many lanes as possible will be open, but Drager still advises caution as slowdowns may still occur in those places. Peak holiday traffic hours are expected between noon and 8 p.m., both tomorrow and on Labor Day. Two Manor to Walk residents are facing drug charges after being busted during a traffic stop this week. Police say the two unidentified suspects were pulled over Tuesday morning near Marshall and 22nd streets because one of them was not wearing their seatbelt. The two were also reportedly driving around in a car registered to a man who died about three months ago when questioned the 37-year-old female passenger told police that the car now belonged to her. But she could not provide any documentation. According to the police, due to the 28-year-old male driver's drug history, a canine unit was called in to search the car where meth was found. Both were arrested for possession of meth and second or subsequent offense. The woman was also charged with being a keeper of a drug house or car. Aaron's company in Brilliant is looking to add about 150 jobs over the next couple of months. The Aaron's company says growth is very necessary at its Calamette County plant. Due to the increasing demand for the best-known product, zero-turn lawn mowers. The direction of operations and plant manager there says they have been seeing double-digit growth for the product, which is why they're now looking at renovating the Brilliant plant to make more. The company is planning to add shipping vehicles, dock and lasers, and with new machines comes the need for new workers. Next Saturday, officials say they will be holding open calls for job positions. Moving into the newly renovated City Hall is no simple task as we learned from Mayor Mike Van Der Sen. The Mayor said that the open house was scheduled on September 3rd before the big move so that the public could see the final project, all its nooks and crannies and its furniture. Once the open house concludes, the move-in begins on September 4th and will take until the 20th to complete. The reason it takes so long according to the Mayor is the need to move department by department one at a time so that downtime is minimized. The public is welcome to the grant opening on Tuesday, September 3rd from 2 until 6 p.m. The Common Council will hold its very first meeting in the new council chambers that evening at 6 p.m. And finally, driving around Sheboygan can be risky business, but it is better than most cities. Quote Wizard, an online insurance-comparing company, gathered figures from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to determine the best and worst driving conditions among Wisconsin's 50 largest cities. Sheboygan ranks 18th best based on the number of incidents including accidents, speeding tickets, DUIs and citations as for the safest superior ranks as the top city. Milwaukee might seem a good choice for the worst, but it is actually four places higher than Sheboygan on the good list. The worst overall, Mount Pleasant, right along I-94 Corridor in the highly congested southeast corner. And that's our report for today. Join me again next week for more local news and information on Community News Review. Have a great and safe Labor Day weekend. I'm delighted by WHBL in cooperation with WSCSTV.

Julie Morath from HQI Shares California's Progress on the State-wide Transparency Dashboard
Julie Morath, President and CEO of Hospital Quality Institute (HQI), shares the organization's commitment to preventing sepsis, maternal errors, and hospital-acquired conditions. She discusses the journey HQI has taken in order to implement transparency efforts in hospitals. One of the ideas to increase transparency that was implemented in acute-care hospitals was 'Transparency Boards', which were to be public for patients in the hospital and at a level that any family member could understand. To learn more about HQI's commitment to patient safety, see the links below!

Thank you. It's wonderful to be here with you again this year. This will be the fifth year that the Hospital Quality Institute has made a commitment and we have committed to always be accountable and to let you know how we did on our previous commitment. Joe Chiani and I have worked together now six years and have always tried to find the intersections in which we could accelerate and catalyze change for greater safety. Now my principal area of my domain is here in California, but I've worked across the United States and I'm always looking for ways to take things to scale. So I'm happy to tell you that we have been working on our collective goal to achieve zero preventable deaths and it's been in three principal areas, sepsis, maternal care and healthcare associated conditions, which correspond to nine of the patient safety movement foundation challenges and our topics such as pressure, injury, hospital and healthcare acquired infections and falls. So I'm proud and to recognize my colleagues, the hospitals and the care teams that have been working very hard to integrate the apps into their practices and to continually work to save lives. In summary, last year we were able to verify 17,284 lives saved and 48,000 harms avoided. The breakdown for that is about 12,345 lives saved from sepsis, 11 lives saved in maternity care and almost 5,000 lives by preventing the harms in conditions that I outlined for you before. Now the other commitment we made in London last year was around a joint partnership with the Foundation and a partnership between Joe and myself and our boards in transparency. Now transparency I think is a very deep cultural intervention and creates the landing strip for the implementation, the sustainability and the results one can achieve by implementing evidence-based practices and the apps, which are the apps. This is pretty personal to me, so I'd just like to take a moment. Back in 2000 I launched and worked with the hospital system that I was employed by and working with on a major transparency issue. We got a lot of attention by the Harvard Business Review, News and World Report for being one of the first out of the foxhole and did you really want to make performance transparent? And our board and our organizations said yes, that we wanted the same information available and to treat our patients, families and communities as we would like to be treated ourselves. Now we had to sedate some of our attorneys and risk managers, but we worked through it and found that this was a real inflection point and how an organization behaved. So being partnered with Joe and with the team at the Patient Safety Movement Foundation has given us the opportunity to take this approach to scale. I was naive. I thought that with positive comment and we received letters from patients and their families from across the United States when they saw this in the popular press about how important this would have been to them. When they had care in hospitals. So I've entered this as we all have our board, our associations and our member hospitals with great commitment to move this opportunity forward. So we prepared dashboards, digital dashboards, which I will show you an example of. For 340 Association member acute care hospitals for them to post on their own websites and to do so voluntarily. And the reason for this was for them to own the dashboard to open up and begin to have conversations internally and with those they serve. One of the Well, it was anticipated, but it exceeded our anticipation effects is that because this is to be public facing to patients and communities and the example of the dashboard I believe is being projected it had to be in language with definitions that consumers could understand which meant medical jargon goes away, the reading and comprehension level is targeted to those we serve and it required engaging patient family advisory groups within the hospitals and some of my colleagues are here today that just have done an outstanding job in this Sutter health system dignity Memorial care Kaiser to really co-create What the content of the dashboard would be refined to reflect? Now the initial start of the dashboard was that we looked at our performance in our hospitals and what areas we wanted To underscore because of the performance that we wish to achieve and to also Correlate that to the apps of the patient safety movement foundation. So we found common ground with the topics We have Five outcomes and this again. I want to emphasize is a starting place and People are asking now gee can we do more say absolutely go forth But our starting place was CLABSI colon SSI and TSV sepsis mortality and VTE Now it also gives the state comparator and a national comparator on how each hospital performs Under that is a Opportunity for each hospital to attest to the fact that they have in place Comprehensive program practice guidelines and evaluation methods for maternity safety for sepsis and for Monitoring and response to respiratory depression What is not shown but is another page in terms of brevity? I didn't place it here is the definitions and We're continuing to get better on the definitions. We now have a statewide Small reactor panel that includes consumers that's working us with us to further refine the clarity and the definition and the Understandability of what we're putting out there and also a room for comment So that if there is performance that's not quite up to par or changes are being made that the hospital can Communicate that directly on their website and be able to stay ahead of a lot of the government publicly reported information That's typically 18 months to two years stale we have had a Slow start but excellent response and Joe. I've got an update for you that just came in last night of the acute care hospital targets 96.3% are Actively engaged in the process and then posted So it's moving along We have and that covers 99 percent of Discharges from those hospitals and We have now See 29 weren't engaged Today we have 13 that are not engaged and we're having encouraging conversations with each one of those CEOs and organizations to get on board So we believe that Transparency disclosure and truth telling To those we serve and to each other a release central Now I'd like to say one word if I could about a precondition is we are viewing Transparency as a precondition and there are two preconditions the one germane today is Transparency but the other is respect for people respect for values for human beings the human condition and treating individuals with love dignity and respect regardless of any Demographic that might serve to divide us Transparency we see as a precondition to any improvement and for an organization to excel a Precondition is not dependent on budget Leadership or governance changes. It is not dependent on external environmental factors a Precondition is the DNA and That must be embedded through each individual in an organization in a willingness to step up and Individually lead with a commitment to transparency For levels of transparency and health care the first is patient with In partnership with their caregivers and providers informed consent development of care plans The term nothing about me without me complete involvement as partners The second is between caregivers to caregivers That we're talking candidly and openly with one another about what we know what we fear How to give each other constructive feedback and make everyone better by virtue of Supporting and mentoring each other The third is between and within our organization So each unit each division each discipline is talking and fully Transparent about the work that's going on and that we're also a transparent between our organizations And that is taking a global picture So I expect that to even be greater and with our industry partners in technology health plans and others and Then the last which this dashboard represents last but certainly not least is the transparency With the public and those we serve so that we are in fact accountable for our work so Joe thanks for the opportunity in the push and To this wonderful community. It's on behalf of our hospitals in California It's a privilege to be part of such a distinguished committed Community of improvers and safety leaders. It's great to be here with you. Thank you

Thanks for joining us on the 1960s Columbia Preservation Bike Tour. This is a self-guided tour with directions between stops, allowing you to pause the video and ride at your own pace. Please keep in mind that you ride at your own risk, but bicycle safety tips are provided at the beginning of the video. Have a great ride! Hi, I'm Megan McNish, a preservation planner with the City of Columbia's Planning and Development Services. Thanks so much for joining us on our 1960s Columbia Bike Ride. We hope that it will be informational and enjoyable for you. To get us started, our Comprehensive Planner of Lead to Fourth is going to give us a little bit of information on bike safety and some tips to have you stay safe out there. Hey there, my name is Linda Fourth and I'm the Comprehensive Planner for the City of Columbia and I'm here today with Megan to take our preservation bike ride virtual. So, before we get out for a ride, there are a couple things that you want to think about when it comes to safety and just being prepared. So, first thing, and this important thing is checking your bike. Now, if you're riding a B-Like, we still might want to check some of these things to make sure the tires are filled with air, that sort of thing, but this is my bike, so I'm pretty comfortable with it, but the things I'm going to check, because I often put it in my car, are that my brakes are connected up here, that my tires have enough air in them, the gears look okay, nothing's wrong here. I have pedals on my bike, sometimes your road bikers might disconnect your pedals for other reasons and need to connect them back. The seat's at the right height, so the way you can tell, the seat's at the right height, this will go for your blue bike as well, is when you're sitting on your seat, your leg is almost straight, just a little bend in it when the pedal's done. So that should give you the right height on your bike, and notice I can still put my toe down to make sure it goes safe. So that's how you make sure your bike is ready up, and you can check your brakes also by doing this, making sure they're close. So we've checked our bike, but there are still some things we want to make sure we've got ready for a ride today. So, first and foremost, shoes. These are pretty gross looking, they're either my old running shoes, but the important thing is I've got them tied correctly, they're not going to fall off my feet, and they're close to the last thing you want to do. A slide your toes in between your ear or your headset, it's not a real comfortable feeling, it might end up with some issues there. So, got good shoes, I've got the right clothes, I've got some comfortable shorts, because it's warmer outside today than it was when we did our last bike ride. It's a really bright shirt. I mean, not everyone has shirts as bright in their closet, feel pretty lucky about that. So, if I don't have my bright shirt, or even if I do, I'm going to want this, because it's reflective. So, if I'm riding in lower light conditions or I don't have bright clothing, this helps drivers look out for me and make sure that I'm safe. So, I've got this, wonderful safety vest, and the next thing I want to make sure I have is my helmet, because let's be honest, helmets, we all know helmets are important. It's like wearing seatbelts, right? So, put your helmet on, buckle it, just because you see us while filming, not buckling your helmet does not mean we're not riding with a buckle. It's sunny, so I've got sunglasses, and I've got a water bottle. But anything in your water bottle, if you want, Gade Raid or something like that, but I've got water in mind today, and we had our snacks earlier, but packing some snacks is never a bad idea either. So, now you should be ready to go and enjoy your ride. Alright, so the next thing we want to talk about are the rules of the ride. So, here in Columbia, there are a couple things you need to be aware of specific to being in Columbia and then also being in the state of South Carolina. That might be different from where you're used to riding or the last time you looked at your driver's ed book or took a bicycle education class. So, first and foremost in the city, we don't ride our bikes on the sidewalks in a very specific area. That area is between Assembly and Sumter and Gervais and Elwood. So, we have that core of the center city to make sure that we've got enough space on the sidewalks for all of our more vulnerable users, and we have just higher pedestrian traffic. So, it makes it a more safe situation for everyone. And of course, we do have Sharrows on Main Street in a good portion of that area. So, that provides you with a lower speed, safer option within the streetscape as well. So, if you're in those areas, please make sure to either walk your bike on the sidewalk if you're uncomfortable riding in the road or ride your bike in the roadway. And follow all traffic laws as a result. The thing that you need to know specific to state of South Carolina laws is tied to bike lanes. So, depending on when you do this ride, you may encounter a number of bike lanes. Because we've got some bike lanes in the works as well. But the bike lane that I know you'll encounter is on LinkedIn Street, kind of down near the inner Vista down by the Arnold School of Public Health and that sort of thing. So, when you're on a street and you're riding in the street, if there is a bike lane in the state of South Carolina you need to be in that bike lane. Or, if it's legal, you can be on the sidewalk. So, again, if you're not in that two-block wide area between Assembly and Sumter, Gervais and Elmwood, you can ride on the sidewalk if you're more comfortable on the sidewalk. But, please, if you're in the road and there's a bike lane available, please be sure to use that bike lane. The other thing is, and this is not specific to South Carolina, but when you're in the road, you want to think about where vehicles are. So, if you're turning, you want to look out for, but also if there's parking on the side of the road, you want to make sure that you're not riding so close to the cars that there's a potential to be a door. So, that means the driver or the passenger is opening their door into the traffic and may actually open their door into you as you walk by. And that can result in some pretty bad injuries depending on what speed you're going. So, we want to make sure that you're staying outside of what we call the right where that door would open. The other thing that we want to think about when we ride is making sure that we're signaling our movements, right? So, when we signal our movements, there are a couple ways you can do that. You can point, so when you're turning right, you want to point to your right, which on the video is not going to look like that, but it's my right, point to your left. You can also use your hand at a 90-degree angle to signal turns to your left or right. And you can also you want to make sure that when you do that, you're holding your hands out. So, you're not just doing this, right? You want to hold, make sure the drivers can see you. You can pull your hand back down and hold on your handlebars, but right before you turn you want to point again. And then the other thing is on this route, we're going to run into a lot of stop signs and also some stop lights. So, when you do, and you're approaching an area where you're going to stop, just signal to other riders and to drivers that you're going to stop. You can take either hand and put it down at a 90-degree angle, and that will just indicate that you're slowing and coming to a stop. So, again, you want to do that for two to three seconds with plenty of advanced notice of what you're going to do that. You don't want to stop right. It's kind of like how we wish everyone used their turn signals with cars. So, anyway, those are kind of your helpful tips for being safe. And just make sure that what you're doing today on this ride, you're comfortable with. If you're not comfortable, we want to encourage you to walk your bike or ride your bike on the sidewalk if it's allowed in that area. And just make sure that you're proceeding in a manner in which you feel safe. Between each stop, a map of the route to the next stop will appear. Followed by written directions. You can pause the video at either point to help you navigate to the next location. Thanks again for joining us on the 1960s Columbia Virtual Bike Tour. You might be wondering why we selected the 1960s as the area of focus for this virtual tour. But it was one of the most tumultuous and divisive decades in American history. Marked by the Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam War and anti-war protests, and political assassinations. Culturally, there was also a great deal of tension between frustrations with the status quo that led activists to use increasingly militant tactics. But conversely, the hippie counter culture where many young people dropped out of the political and social mainstreams. On the national level, several events lay the groundwork for changes that we'll be talking about at this stop and at those to come. First was the 1961 inauguration of John F. Kennedy and his assassination in 1963. After which, he was succeeded by Lyndon B. Johnson who was re-elected in 1964. As the 36th president, Johnson spearheaded reform programs he dubbed the Great Society. The idea was to give poor people, quote, a hand up, not a hand out. These programs included the War on Poverty, which included urban renewal, a topic we'll discuss at our next stop. As well as support for arts and humanities through the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts. As well as environmental initiatives, including the Water Act in 1965 and the Motor Vehicle Air Pollution Control Act that set the first vehicle emission standards. While there are a number of issues in the 1960s that we could discuss, in the City of Columbia, it was the struggle for civil rights that defined the 1960s. While our discussion of civil rights will be focused on the 1960s, it's important to acknowledge that the fight for equal rights started well before that decade. Between the founding of the NAACP in the early 20th century, committees and organizations dedicated to pursuing voting rights and fights for equal pay and integration of schools. There were several events in the decades leading up to the 1960s that played an integral role in the civil rights movement here in South Carolina, as well as across the nation. One of these events was a 1947 voting rights case called Elmore v. Rice, which challenged the white-only primary system in South Carolina. A second event occurred in the following decade. In June of 1954, Sarah May Fleming, a young African-American domestic worker, was ejected from the bus near where we're standing at the corner of Maine and Washington streets. The litigation involved in Fleming's case helped lay the groundwork for Rosa Parks actions in 1955 and the ensuing Montgomery bus boycott. The first civil rights action of the 1960s in Columbia began with a sit-in at a lunch counter. This was inspired by a similar nonviolent protest in Greensboro, North Carolina where four college students had refused to leave a white-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's without being served. Here in Columbia, students from University and Benedict College began their own sit-ins at Woolworth's, Crest's, and Eford's. While all of the sit-ins here in Columbia were nonviolent protests, they still led to many arrests for criminal trespassing and legal cases for the students involved. However, by 1962, Columbia began to desegregate its lunch counters showing an early success for the students and their nonviolent protesting. This early success was juxtaposed by a vote from the state legislators to raise the Confederate battle flag atop the state house in opposition to integration. While these early actions and successes were heartening for those involved with the civil rights movement, 1963 was a watershed year here in Columbia and across the nation. In 1963, the University of South Carolina began to consider desegregation. This spurred a protest by white students in May of 1963. Over 1,000 University of South Carolina students marched to the state house chanting, quote, we don't want to integrate. However, by July of 1963, the University of South Carolina's Board of Trustees announced that it would comply with orders to desegregate the University. On September 11, 1963, the first three African American students, Henry Monty, James Solomon and Robert Anderson enrolled at the University of South Carolina, becoming the first African American students since reconstruction. The desegregation of public schools, both high school and elementary, began in 1964, but wasn't complete until the early 1970s. Also in 1963, the South Carolina State Park System was ordered to desegregate. Instead of honoring the order to desegregate, the South Carolina Forestry Commission closed all of the state's parks and didn't fully integrate facilities until 1966. However, 1963 brought more local successes. On August 12, 1963, leading Columbia merchants announced that they had removed all segregation signs from water fountains, restrooms and dressing rooms, and agreed to adopt non-racial employment policies. This announcement came immediately before the August 28th, March on Washington. The March on Washington included approximately 250,000 people, gathering in solidarity for jobs and freedom. It was at this event that the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous I Have a Dream speech. Sadly, less than a month later, on September 15, 1963, a bomb exploded at the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four young girls and injuring several other people prior to Sunday service. The events of 1963 paved the way for further legislation on civil rights. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson pushed a civil rights act through Congress, preventing employment discrimination due to race, color, sex, religion, or national origin. The following year, in 1965, the Voting Rights Act was adopted, eliminating poll taxes, literacy requirements, and other tools that Southern whites had traditionally used to keep blacks from voting. In April of 1968, President Johnson signed a Second Civil Rights Act into effect, also known as the Fair Housing Act, providing equal housing opportunity regardless of race, religion, or national origin, and was intended to follow up on the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The Civil Rights Act of 1968 was, however, contentiously debated in the Senate, but was quickly passed by the House of Representatives in the days after the assassination of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. The Fair Housing Act stands as the final great legislative achievement of the Civil Rights Era. At our next stop, we'll discuss other mid-century policies that had a devastating effect on African-American communities, both locally and nationally, and also had a lasting effect on the built environment of Colombia that has shaped the way our city looks today. We talked about at our last stop the 1960s were a time of great upheaval in the United States both on a political level and culturally. Some policies that arose during the 1960s had a significant impact on the built environment, and particularly the Civil Rights Act of 1954 and Black communities. One of these national policies was the 1956 Highway Act, which displaced communities to make way for the construction of urban highways. This act reflected not only the car-centric ideology of the mid-century, created by increased access to motor vehicles, but also the realization of Cold War ideology and large-scale weapons not suitable for airplane travel across the country. But perhaps the most influential of these programs were the Housing Act, beginning with the 1949 Housing Act and the concept of urban redevelopment. This term was later changed under the 1954 Housing Act to the more familiar urban renewal. Under the Housing Act, the federal government gave cities the power and money to condemn slum neighborhoods, deliver them through eminent domain, and then turn them over to private land developers at cheap rates for projects that included higher-end housing, hospitals, hotels, shopping centers, and college expansions. These acts were intended to wipe clean, poor, deteriorating neighborhoods, stimulating private investment and luring middle-class residents back to cities. The federal policy was intended to compensate displaced people, find their relocation, or place them in public housing. However, this assistance was often late or never materialized. As cities used federal money to raise entire areas, people lost their homes. But more importantly, they lost their communities. Because urban renewal was fundamentally targeted at clearing slums, poor people and people of color were often disproportionately impacted. While the Act did not mandate that public housing be associated with a renewal project, it stipulated that renewal sites must be predominantly residential, either before or following redevelopment. However, 1959 amendments to the Housing Act changed some things. Universities were authorized to receive renewal funds without having to include housing. Starting in the 1950s, Columbia sought to eliminate traffic light from the city through a county-wide fight-light campaign. This was intended to unify downtown and through this PR campaign, it essentially equated light and slums to cancer. With the 1959 amendments to the Housing Act, the University of South Carolina began to expand into the residential areas of University Hill and Port One. In 1965, during the height of urban renewal, Fort Walker House was demolished. It had fallen into less than pristine condition and was locked in with other homes on that block that were seen as blighted. Lyle Spassette, Carlisle and Wolf, or LBCW, built the Rutledge Office Building and the American Institute of Architects later presented the project with an award of excellence in the year that it opened. Port One, where we're standing now, was a local voting district designated as a blighted area by the Columbia Housing Authority. It was a historic community of African American businesses, schools, churches, banks and homes. This tight-knit community lived in what was seen by city government to be blighted conditions and they bordered on storm-like areas. As a result, the University of South Carolina acquired 22 acres of land along Blossom Street a survey conducted by the City of Columbia. There were 222 dwellings located in this area. Of those 222 dwellings, 213 failed to meet the city's minimum housing requirements. Between 1964 and 1974, the Columbia Housing Authority and the University of South Carolina displaced the Portland community in order to expand state government and university where homes, schools, churches and businesses once stood. Now we have the Strom Thurmond Wellness and Fitness Center, the Koger Center, the Carolina Coliseum and several other University of South Carolina buildings. The Ward One community continues to live on in stories shared by former residents and ongoing efforts of people who remember a time when they called the Ward One home. Although most of the structures that people identified with 50 years ago are memories of the Ward One community live on as former residents tell their stories and reconstruct the narrative of Columbia's history. It is our responsibility to listen and share these stories to document the true, full historical context in which we live. Founded in 1991, the Ward One organization maintains the spiritual sense of community shared among former Ward One residents. The goal of the organization are to renew acquaintances, of their history and memorialize the legacies of descendants and their contributions. The Ward One project is a collaboration between University of South Carolina faculty and students and former Ward One residents to preserve the memories of the Ward One community and a mobile application. Oral histories from former Ward One residences and accumulated extensive collections of primary materials of burning Ward One and its history are available on this application. Since 2012, the Crackle Interactive class has combined students from Computer Science and the Humanities to document and share the stories of Ward One. The class will continue to develop software that generates an interactive experience for visitors, parents, students, and the Columbia community at large. Once finished, the Ward One mobile application will be available for download in the App Store. And right now, we're standing in front of the last remaining residents in Ward One. It's not a whole lot to look at, but it's the last remnant of this once thriving community. The other building that's associated with Ward One is the Palmetto Compress, which is just across the street. These are the last remaining messages of, again, a once thriving community. As we discussed at our previous stop, there were a number of federal applications with local applications that devastated communities in Columbia, influenced by national trends, planning efforts contributed to, or in some cases were the mechanism for, this devastation. During the middle of the 20th century, urban planning was characterized by a top-down approach that idolized efficiency and engineering, often prioritizing automotive travel over other modes. Concurrently, an increase in funding became available for urban highways in the post-war era, with the goal to provide access to growing suburbs. Planners and engineers worked to implement sweeping changes in order to wipe the slate clean and remake cities using mid-century ideals. Using this framework, pedestrians and vehicles would be separated with no space for bikes, and commercial and residential uses would remain in separate spheres as well. This top-down approach of planning largely excluded the public, especially working-class communities and communities of color. This planning model was challenged in 1961 by Jane Jacobs with the publication of The Death and Life of Great American Cities. As a journalist, Jacobs spent much of her time on the streets of New York City and she studied the interaction of people on the street, examining what gave the city life. In her work, she argued the planning efforts at this time did not respect the needs of citizens and, instead, oversimplified and gutted communities. Jacobs believed there were four keys in the city. Lively streets, interconnected streets, mixed-use development, including parks and public buildings, and neighborhood identity. The construction of urban highways destroyed the interconnection of street networks and, in turn, isolated communities, reducing their vitality. Likewise, the separation of land uses limited street and public space to certain times of the day. So if everyone works in one area and lives in another, after 5 o'clock, the business district would be empty and goods and services would be disconnected from neighborhoods. Columbia's own mid-century planning efforts resulted in the 1969 Central City Columbia SC Master Plan, often referred to as the Doxiatus Plan. Produced by Doxiatus & Associates, Wilbur Smith & Associates, and Lyle's Basette, Carl Lyle & Wolfe. The plan promoted a freeway system that would follow the boundaries of the original city grid with larger arterial streets throughout, elevated and underground people movers, a clean slate on Main Street with a raised walkway, separate residential and commercial sectors, and development of the riverfront. All of these recommendations were developed without the input of the many communities the recommendations would affect. As much of the Doxiatus Plan wasn't realized, hundreds of historic buildings, including many on Main Street and in the Vista, were saved from demolition. While preservationists and urban planners today have ideas put forward in the plan, we can't ignore the Doxiatus Plan as a relic of a bygone era in planning. It is both a cautionary lesson to carefully consider the historic value of a building before it is lost, and a reminder that public input is a critical component in the planning process. The Doxiatus Plan, however, also saw the opportunity in the open space on the riverfront. In feedback received during the Columbia Compass planning process, it was clear many citizens continued to see the riverfront as Columbia's greatest underutilized asset. Although the rendering in the Doxiatus Plan might not be what these commenters had in mind. With its focus on efficiency of movement, the Doxiatus Plan also recommended strengthening public transit networks. Another goal we continue to work towards today, looking at the Doxiatus Plan with a critical eye and understanding its lessons and its flaws can help us consider our city in a new light. As we head to our next stop, where we'll talk about a movement that changed the course of our city, consider how the needs of Columbia citizens might be similar or different from what they were in the 1960s. Urban renewal devastated large swaths of Columbia, but as it reached its peak in the 1960s, Columbia's nascent historic preservation movement was born. Here behind us is a Columbia cottage that was one of the first properties on the list of protected properties in Columbia, the historic and cultural buildings plan, compiled in the early 1960s as widespread demolition both through urban renewal and private efforts underscored the need for preservation here in Columbia. Mabel Payne, a housing inspector with the City of Columbia's Urban Rehabilitation Department, was instrumental in developing a list of significant structures and advocating for their preservation. Though not an architectural historian by training, Mabel Payne became Columbia's historic preservation pioneer. The desire for preservation came from Payne's firsthand knowledge of the devastation of urban renewal. She saw some of the city's oldest and most dilapidated buildings be targeted but could also see their rich architectural heritage. She began to identify and record structures before their demolition and she started this work in the late 1950s. Among the buildings Payne identified was this Columbia cottage, which she first photographed in 1959. Although it was identified for its architectural significance, the structure was also among a small number of landmarks that were not only significant for their architecture but also their association with African American history. Originally addressed as 718 Lumber Street, it was home to driver William Pinkie. His family members lived on the adjacent blocks of Landing Street in the Arsenal Hill neighborhood. Arsenal Hill was historically home to both white and black residents but these residents were not only divided by race but also by geography. African Americans lived in the western half of the neighborhood while whites lived to the east. By the 1920s and 30s the divide was visible but the white half of the neighborhood featuring paved roads and sidewalks. This division deepened during the Jim Crow era as white inhabitants began to associate areas with concentrated African American populations with life. A former resident of Arsenal Hill James Carter remembered the neighborhood he grew up in not as a blighted area but something else entirely. Carter recalled Arsenal Hill was a microcosm of America in that there were people there who made a way to live very comfortable and have their own society their own middle class and provide for their families who lived very comfortably. But like Ward 1 this part of Arsenal Hill quickly became a target for urban renewal in the 1950s. Urban renewal however was not the only threat that older neighborhoods faced in the 1950s and 60s. There was a desire for development in the downtown area of Columbia. The structures that once stood around this one were demolished to make way for office buildings leaving it as a driver on this block of new street. Although it was originally protected for its architecture historians and preservationists alike have begun to recognize the importance of protecting structures that can tell us more about the experiences of individuals throughout history. Although we don't have lengthening's diary or a whole lot of information about the man himself a great deal can be learned from the home that he lived in and the neighborhood that once stood in our midst. At our next stop we're going to talk a little bit more about where the preservation movement began in Columbia and how the inclusion of this Columbia cottage for its architecture was a huge step forward from preservation. At our last stop we talked about the impact that urban renewal had on large areas of Columbia. And although the Robert Mills House is now a treasured building here in our city it was not immune to the growing pains of the 1960s. From the completion of the home in the 1820s to the late 1950s buildings on this site served as a religious education institution versus a dormitory Birchacora College and then eventually for the Columbia Bible College. By the 1960s the Columbia Bible College today Columbia International University had outgrown the campus surrounding the structure. After Columbia Bible College vacated the property the building sat vacant and was soon slated for demolition. Outspoken citizens of Columbia came together in October of 1961 to form the historic Columbia Foundation whose first goal was to save the Robert Mills House. It's important to understand that in the early 1960s there was very little national legislation to support the preservation movement. Preservation was largely considered a private effort with the federal government only getting involved in very small number of instances. The Antiquities Act of 1906 allowed the president to create national monuments which after 1916 were administered by the National Park Service. Later the Historic Sites Act of 1935 created the historic American building survey known as HABS which at the time of its creation provided jobs for architects, engineers and surveyors who were out of work during the Great Depression. This was one of the many efforts by the Roosevelt's administration to assist with economic recovery in the wake of the stock market crash. In the meantime, this historic structure was still threatened by demolition. Legend has it that Mabel Payne, a member of the city's Urban Development Office, we discussed at our last stop, sat on the front porch of the house in 1961 with a shotgun to prevent its demolition. While the story might not be true, Mabel Payne was among the guiding members of Historic Columbia and other preservation groups in their early days. She served on the first preservation planning committee as their chair and eventually Historic Columbia was able to raise the funds to purchase and restore the property. After extensive renovations the home opened as a museum in April of 1967. Today Historic Columbia continues to care for this property among others and the Robert Mills House is just one of five national historic landmarks in Columbia. While homes like this were among the first to garner the attention of the preservation movement over time historians and preservationists have begun to recognize the value of the homes of common people and the value that they give to preservation in our city. At our next stop we're going to talk about how the protection of historic buildings in Columbia has evolved since the 1960s. At our last stop we talked about the preservation of the Robert Mills House. This was primarily a private effort organized by the local citizens of Columbia but with the threat to other historic buildings throughout the city it became clear that municipal efforts would be necessary to preserve Columbia's architectural and cultural heritage. This realization resulted in the formation of the Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission. The commission was created on February 20, 1963 by city council resolution. Its purpose was to identify and protect buildings with historical significance and to identify those that may develop significance in the future. It was also tasked with reviewing applications for major exterior work and demolition as well as controlling the use of historically significant properties. The commission quickly developed the first landmark list known as the Historical and Cultural Buildings Plan which was published by the commission. This list identified many architecturally significant properties throughout Columbia. The commission reviewed requests for major changes and demolition of these properties. In 1974 Columbia worked with Carlisle and Wolfe as a private firm hired out to update their zoning ordinance. With the coming updates to the ordinance which were to include urban design review LBC and W recommended that the Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission be replaced with a new body that would have broader regulatory power over preservation and urban design matters. By the end of 1974 the Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission was disbanded to make way for the new Landmarks Commission. The Landmarks Commission held its first meeting shortly after the disbanding of the Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission with its new powers to review any construction reconstruction alteration repair demolition of any structure erection or replacement of any sign, marquee, awning or other exterior architectural feature or attachment to any landmark or structure within a designated district. With these new powers the Landmarks Commission published its first landmark list in 1975 and the deficiencies of the purview of the previous Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission became apparent. In the 11 years the commission reviewed protected buildings more than 40 of those identified on the list were demolished or removed and later demolished at the owner's request. Half of the parcels where these demolished buildings once sat are either vacant parking garages or parking lots. One of the demolished structures was the William Glaze House a Group 1 landmark which was an excellent example of the Italianate style. While the Italianate style is common in the Midwest there are not many good examples in the Southeast and the Glaze House was one such example. The site of the house is now a parking lot and these stories are repeated over and over for structures on the original landmark list. Not to mention the significant number of structures lost before protections went into place. In 1999 when City Council adopted guidelines for the City Center Design Development District a new commission was created to review historic preservation and urban design projects known as the Design Development Review Commission. The creation of the DDRC based out the existing Landmarks Commission and the DDRC continues to hear these cases today although the number of districts has vastly increased since its creation. Since the 1960s the Historical and Cultural Buildings Commission, Landmarks Commission and Design Development Review Commission have all ensured the protection of hundreds of historic resources changing the face of our city. Without these commissions the staff that supported them and most importantly the volunteers that sat on them it's hard to imagine what our city would look like today but it's important to remember that preservation is an ongoing process one we continue to revisit and revise. Some of those buildings that replaced those demolished on the original landmark list in the 1950s of age those mid-century modern structures that destroyed earlier ones have begun to become historically significant in their own right. As we move forward we need to keep a critical eye on the historic fabric of our city as buildings come up for demolition will we one day lament their loss? Will a building type commonly found today be scarce in the next few years? These are questions we need to continue to ask as preservationists but also as informed citizens of Columbia. Thanks so much for coming along with us in our 1960s Columbia bike ride we hope you enjoyed it and it provided you with a little bit of information a new way to look at your city if you have ideas for other bike rides or things you'd like to hear more about maybe you'd like us to dive into history in Columbia or women's history in Columbia let us know in the comments or she does an email at preservation at colombiasc.gov we'd love to hear from you and thanks again stay safe out there. We hope you had a great time today and if you're taking this ride in May we hope you're celebrating National Bike Month and National Historic Preservation Month in other ways as well a great way to stay tuned and learn about future projects and efforts from the city's planning division is by signing up for our e-newsletters at colombiasc.gov.

I'm General Mike Garrett, Commanding General of the United States Army Forces Command. I ask Commands, our major court colonel, to join me so that we can share some thoughts and guidance about how we will address the coronavirus pandemic. As you will see, even for this message, we are practicing social distancing. Right now we are living through unprecedented events globally and here at home. This pandemic is affecting our daily lives and will continue to for some time. As good stewards who have the trust of the American people and its citizens ourselves, we owe it to those we are sworn to protect to adhere strictly to best practices for limiting the spread of COVID-19. Coupled with that, we must not forget that our worldwide requirements remain unchanged. At Force Com, our number one priority is to deliver decisive total Army readiness to meet global combatant command requirements. And even now, this priority will not change. Our civic leaders are employing all means to defeat the COVID-19 virus. Each of you at our forts, bases, camps, centers, and armories play a vital role in your local community's mitigation plan. Your commanders are working hard to keep our soldiers, civilians, and family members informed of the latest information and guidance to keep you safe. Despite the challenges brought by COVID-19 pandemic, we will remain ready to meet combatant commander requirements. When our nation calls, Force Com provides lethal units that are ready to fight tonight and when. And we will be ready. Although we have had to modify troop movements and training exercises, there are still things we can do at home station to build and sustain readiness and master the fundamentals. That's right, sir. We have got to continue building experts through individual and small unit collective training or foundational training strategies more relevant than ever. We expect all soldiers to be experts on their assigned weapons and in their MOS skills. Squad should also focus on equipment maintenance and readiness, especially our medical equipment. Our medical personnel and equipment may be in high demand over the coming days and weeks and we have to be ready. That's right, Sergeant Major. It's never wrong to do PT. Now is not the time to get out of shape. Leaders should maximize physical training at the individual and squad level. Some may question the activities required to maintain readiness, namely soldiers reporting for work and executing training. My message to them and each of you in FORSCOM is that police, firefighters, health officials and soldiers have a special responsibility to remain ready, especially during a national emergency. We urge everyone to continue to take necessary individual precautions. Follow guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and civic leaders. Stay up to date on any guidelines or instructions that change. Continue to practice social distancing and wash your hands often. Limit gatherings to no more than 10 people. This applies to meetings, church services, ceremonies and of course, formations. Even if you are otherwise healthy, you are at risk and your activities can increase the risk to others. Use your available communications capabilities to the greatest extent. Video teleconferences, phone calls, Skype and even email are good ways to collaborate and disseminate information.

A deeper understanding needs to be had here when we're looking at opportunity in stock market investing. It helps to draw a perspective and really what it comes down to me is either optimism or pessimism. That's really what it comes down to me. Guys, I'm 45 years old. There's people who are 20s that'll hear my message and they're not going to get it. There's people my age who have either signed up their allegiance on one side of the house or another to determine how they want to live life. They want to go through life completely careful and scared and never opportunistic and never want to take a chance and never want to put risk on the table. I'm not like that in reflection of my life. It's made all the difference in the many successes if not the vast majority of the successes that I've had is my willing to put risk on the table, as well as some of my shortcomings, which has also been a direct result of my opportunistic thought, my opportunistic approach to life. I wouldn't have been where I am today if it weren't for that opportunistic opportunity that I've provided for myself. It's just that simple. In reflection, and I don't know if you guys can resonate with this idea, whenever I rely on others, rely on the advice of others or rely on the successes or failures of others and trying to write the ways of their deficiencies as it somehow incorporates into my life, it doesn't seem to stick. The only thing that ever sticks for me are those decisions that I make some hard, some easy, but I make them on my own. Those are the ones that pay off the most, relationships, real estate, business, the independent investor channel, being in service as long as I have. All those decisions were made on my own accord when they felt right at certain impasses in my life. Now, some of them have proven out to be investments or commitments or things that I have brought into my life that are wide open now. They're continuing to pay me. They're investments that have bloomed, my relationship with my wife, my family, my career. My career has bloomed into a garden of absolute beauty. It's funny too that Opportunistic Avenue has provided me some insights and share with you now in that money is earned in a lot of different fashions. I know contrary to what you've heard and what you've learned and what you want to think you understand about money would have you suggest that you go to work, you earn money, you spend money, you take a small piece of that, segue it to the side, and hopefully that adds up to something material into your future. I don't mean to deduce or judge how it is that you live and what you do with your time. There's a lot of people on this earth that don't even have one-tenth the opportunity that we have here in the United States. With that said, it's amazing how humans react to being placed in a corner and being told that they don't have opportunity. The sheer reality is that those in this world in its vast majority that are able to accumulate wealth in this life are those that started with nothing. I think the pedigree and the recipe that goes into that idea is this idea that I'm sharing with you now in that optimism probably has more of its place in association with successful thought and successful outcomes than pessimism. I'm not suggesting that being pessimistic and being careful and being cautious and being reserved in your application doesn't potentially have its place. I'm just here to share with you guys that the dynamic forces that oppose each other, pessimism and optimism in my life, are all too often overshadowed by optimism. Sometimes it blinds my decision making because I'm a believer. I'm a believer wholeheartedly that we have a finite amount of time here on this earth. I'm a believer that establishing a life perhaps may be better than what you were provided by your parents and way of maybe a legacy is something that I hold dear as a responsibility that I take and I execute along every single day. It drives my aggressive passion. My dreams certainly do formulate and allow me to put some deductive reasoning around the decision making that I do. I framed the discussion this week on Hylian Holdings, which is a company that I have been on some commitments out of pocket and have been unable to discuss with the audience from a weekly perspective. The stock is at an all-time low. This is a fact. Hylian Holdings is entered into what I dubbed a good many months ago as being a bridge in phase. The stock is suffering for it. Every piece of good news that comes only sees the stock digress another 25%. We narrowly find ourselves in any one given specific day where we can find the stock up where I define the level of ludicy when it comes to the stock price. I'm further given validation that my redefinition is in order of it going further into the ludicrous category. The fact of the matter is this. We are in a very, very lean period right now indicated by the current stock price at all time lows. This is where we are. You can justify it one way or the other. You can justify it being justified. You can look at it and say it's unjustifiable. None of that stuff matters. For the sake of dialogue and banter and potentially understanding what body of work has been put on with Hylian and the project thus far really doesn't matter. Does it jade your decision making going forward with what you do know? I came out with a funny video. I just released it. I'm doing my serious Ryan independent investor channel video because there's only one of me. There's only one perspective I still think we're 100% right on on this project. I have no doubt in my mind to share with you guys some insights on how I'm going about framing my thesis going forward is going to be invaluable for you. I want to remind each and every one of you guys to do your own due diligence on stock market investing for yourself and identify those specific pockets where an opportunity like this may fit into your portfolio. I'm not here to make those fits for you. I'm here to provide a conduit to information and that information is driven toward one singular goal and that is to make money. Contrary to what we've experienced over the last three years, I will say it again. My goal is to make money. The method to that end is in this case investing in a company that has an unwritten short to medium term. I think it's easier for me to envision this company longer term having a place in the commercial industry as their solution we can all agree on is quite good. Attacked as of recent, yes. Will they sell product? Are they going to nothing? Is the stock going to nothing? Will they ever sell product? Yada, yada, yada. I leave that type of dialogue to be uneducated. I leave that conversation and dialogue to those in the retail community who have as of late or if ever have learned to discover what it takes to actually invest speculatively in the stock market and the level of risk tolerance necessary to engage in that end. I could take 10 of my patrons and I could sit down with them in a room and it would take me an entire day to get an iota of understanding and consensus amongst those 10 in the group with me if I was allowed to talk nothing but investing to get to know those individuals to understand what makes them them, what makes their opportunity in stock market either robust or lean, what type of investor they are, what type of products could be aligned to satisfy that investor's palette and strategy and dare I suggest maybe meet those long-term goals into the future for each of those 10 respective investors that I would sit down with and have a dialogue with with the idea that I'm going to understand them more and they are going to understand me more at the end of that let's just call it eight hours, 10 hours, 12 hours okay it would take me a day to increase the level of knowledge and understanding and reciprocation and understanding okay this will work for you maybe not so much in this category take a little bit off the top here soften up a little bit here on your intentions your way too aggressive here put that effort and energy somewhere over here and I do that for each of the 10 respective candidates that I'm sitting down with. Social media has the potential of bringing thousands and thousands of different opinions, rogues of opinions, opinions that I could presume if I was going to sit down with a good portion of them never comment on the channel and never give me any type of reciprocation to understand that either they appreciate the information or they hate the information I have, Maria have understood that about social media that's the beauty and mystery behind it is that I throw that message out into a black hole without any type of understanding of who and where and how the intent of the message is going to be received I digress. There is a quantifiable pulse on the community which would suggest that the message aligned with the wrong situation is coming back to me in consensus fashion and that means that there is a pocket of the group that somehow feel like they've been duped or they've been misled or that they have seen something the light and want to share that light with me as to how it should pertain to me they have the vision and they want to share the vision with me on how I misguided this and that. But it is par for the course to understand that the scrutiny, the attacks on me, the attacks on the family, you don't know my family and quite honestly you don't know me either are at peak and the relationship and the irony is that highly on stock right now as we speak has just dipped down to all time lows. I mean it is $1.83 is just laughable. It's laughable. They've got all kinds of cash on the books, doesn't matter. They don't have any debt, it doesn't matter. They've got a good team, they've got a good head, they've got a good order queue, a backlog, none of it matters, does not matter. Stock market is pricing highly on holdings as if it is going to expire its cash and go out of business before they even have the chance to see the light of day with regard to a commercially viable product that we can delineate, can provide consistent product to the marketplace and that that demand will meet that production capability. And so the attacks fly. I would pose this to the audience in understanding whether or not those criticisms are because of the past or because of the present or because of the future. So in other words, and I'll give you guys why you guys watch the video, then you can shut it down. You don't have to listen to me rant at all. I have been aggressively buying highly on holdings here for the last two weeks. I have been buying the stock in increments of 500 share blocks. Entry price about two months ago was the highest that it's been in the last six and that was $3.17. Two incremental blocks of buys last year, excuse me, last week in the tune of $1.87 and one final buy in the increment of 500 shares for the price of around $1.93. The conviction of highly on holdings is investing into the future potential, not past performance. If you are new to the company, the video that I put out today on behalf of Ronaldo, who I don't know very well, but he contacted me and said, hey, I'd like to do a highly on video. I don't know anything about it. Do I have your permission? I said, hell, I don't own the product. I don't own the name. I don't own anything. He said, great, I'm going to do this. I don't know squat about the company, but I'm going to mention you a couple of times. I said, no problem to your thing. I said, do you realize that your name is the acronym for RNG? He was like, no, I never realized that. I was like, yeah, it's meant to be. He was like, yeah, well, my buddy told me about this stock and I wanted to check it out. I was like, have at her, man, good luck with you. You'll probably invest in the company at $1.83 and it'll end up in 50 cents and you'll be out next month anyway. So it's not going to matter. Have at it, tear it up, all the best of luck to you. That inevitably is what the stock market would have. Is the luck is the only thing that is on your side, the only thing that we have going for us in this particular juncture that taking a thesis on a particular company cannot, in the way that we define it, be deployed and actually see it pay off in the time that we define as necessary for that set investment to pay off. With that observation in mind, I want you guys to think about a few things when you're talking about investing in general. Okay. There's a few common misconceptions about investing that I think we need to discuss now. If you can avoid overlevering to a company, I highly recommend that you do that. It would probably help take the edge off a little bit on a position that I'm down in. I've been a bull and an investor since the beginning. I've sold the company twice. I sold Sub-20 and I sold around $12. The Sub-20 sale was actually to render a $6,000 profit of the company. When I say nobody's ever made money, I would remind you that that was the sale that I actually made money. Now, I did liquidate a position to take a tax loss on the position before coming out of 2020 going into 2021. There's been two specific liquidations in the company. I never purchased the shares above 20. I did not purchase the shares above 30. I did not purchase the shares above 40. Finally, I did not purchase the shares above 50. Nor did I purchase the shares on the way down south of 50. I did not purchase the shares south of 40. I did not purchase the shares south of 30, 20. It was around the $10 mark where I looked at the IPO initial insurance price and I started to figure that things were starting to get compressed on the low end and started to enter the share. Now, if there was any criticism of the share buying that I did at the time, I was buying some pretty big shares of block. I think in retrospect, if I was going to share some learnings that I've got razor sharp now, there's no better learnings in the stock market than actually working through these different scenarios and different lessons that you take and incorporate into your repertoire going forward. But for me, buying such large chunks in the 10, 12, 9, 8 range because I was kind of calling a bottom of it and breaking the number one rule of not trying to catch a falling knife, probably breaking the same rule now with an acknowledgement that the stock at the time when I was buying it was 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 dollars and now buying it at $1.83 should be much more justifiable in the eyes of a company that I don't think has changed material. I would suggest that I don't think it's changed material too much from $58 to $1.83. I really don't. I think the stock market, whatever short games are being played right now, whatever manipulation is happening in the stock market, I'm quick to just call bullshit on it. I think that the word and the verdict is out. I think that they can molest the stock all they want and you've got guys like my share self saying calmly hold because it will be a matter of time before this company cannot be denied anymore and what used to be opportunities that were put into a dark room locked up and only if you had access to but for the vast majority of people the key was thrown away and that opportunity in way of information was made unavailable to people out there. I'm here to shed light on this corner and as long as the prolonged darkness is beset upon this company, I will continue to shed light on the fact that I think we are sitting on a real gold mine here. I really do. The factors at play that would drive my decision are very very simple that they're not hard that they are not hard. Do we keep the status quo with diesel or do we look to leverage new technology? You can say you can suggest Ryan, I think we're going to remain with diesel for the next 100 years. It's a it's an opinion. I have my opinion that of which I'm quick to offer some substantiation and potential for me to be completely wrong. What's to suggest that when I look out on the freeway and see a diesel dominated present that the status quo is not going to be maintained and we're going to continue to ship our goods using number two diesel. It's reasonable. It's easier to resonate with that idea. It takes much more imagination to imagine a something other than the status quo. We are people of visual validation on this earth. We have a very very difficult time in many cases looking at something and imagine it being something else. Even what we know about Hylian and the progress of the hyper truck ERX coming to its final approval, certifications, iterations, some of the small tidbits of information that we're getting in way of the winter testing that's happening up north on the border has me absolutely convinced, absolutely convinced that we have a viable product that can move parcels from point A to point B and do so leveraging existing infrastructure that exists now. We could put the solution to work as of yesterday and you would still have people that would presume that the status quo will hold true and companies like Hylian and Nikola and Heizen and some of the others will not find their place and this will fall on deaf ears and we will continue to maintain the status quo even in the face of what we understand about what we should be doing with our obligation and that is looking at the potential for less harmful technology as it pertains to the current posture and care that we take over our planet. What incentive do the logistics and shipping companies have to put the stress test against the status quo and actually entertain the idea of change? Why change? In short, why change? Well, we are in a time here in 2023 where everybody is focused on interest rates. We are focused on inflation. We are talking about negative aftershocks from a pandemic that shocked the world. We are dealing with an all-time high real estate market. We are talking about a never been so volatile stock market. We are talking about an age now in 2023, my friends, where long-term investing is dead. It's dead. It's no longer a thing. Nobody does it. It's fallen to an all-time low here in 2023. Nobody believes in the stock market anymore. Nobody. By nature of statistics, it's a fact. You can go check it out for yourself and the statistics are probably being propped up by the very few people that own their 401k and would contribute to it no matter what. Most of those people know that it's good to save for the financial future, and that's the end of it. That's all they know. The mandates and the incentives is what I speak of, my friends, that are providing a cross-current of need to challenge the status quo at present. R&G incentives, such as the $1 incentive bill that is being proposed to Congress to provide different fueling alternatives for the fleets. Do I believe that diesel production and diesel use and augmenting our logistics fleet as massive as it is is going to go away? No. I've always contended that I do believe that optionality is the key amongst the fleet with regard to the logistics chains and their ability to look at their specific runs that they're making and potentially augment new technology where appropriate. Now, some are going to play ball, some are not going to play ball. I don't care. The fact of the matter is, as an investor, I have to look at the cross-currents going on with the current status quo, and I need to look at the pressure, however you look at the degree of pressure on the logistics space and the customers on the back end that are demanding change. They are demanding change, and I think over the coming five to 10 years, you're going to find that there is more of an acceptance of new technology because people are going to become less acceptance, acceptable of the status quo. In other words, it's time to change. It's time to stop turning a blind eye, and it's time to start acknowledging that where technology exists out there in the marketplace that we need to start to incorporate some of these technologies into the fleets. Okay. I digress. We'll come back to Hylian. How is it that Hylian is going to be looking to make a dent into the commercial space? My friends, I remember a time when an order was an order, and Hylian had their 1,000 agility truck backorder, and I remember thinking to myself, we have a long way to go from seed pod to something special, whatever that tree or whatever that fruit tree or blossoming tree or maturity that is going to happen over the coming years is going to look like as the Hylian story evolves over time. Okay. We knew we were just at the very, very starting place. We were in a time where we were dealing with a pre-revenue company. We are no longer a pre-revenue company. The company is garnering some interest in their product, the hybrid product that is not very hyped, not advertised and not showcased, really outside of a few of the ACTX boats and some of the other trade shows where it's mentioned, and the word in industry is that they understand that this product is available from a commercial perspective, and they're selling quite a few of those units. Okay. Now, the hyper truck ERX is the one that everybody is interested in, in that it meets a full electronic powertrain solution, and I think that's where the fleets are really looking at that angle. If I'm being presumptuous of all, it's where I would look. Okay. And if I'm going to be fair, they're probably looking at as Tesla is looking at or Pepsi is looking at Tesla as an opportunity, looking at all of the different opportunities that are offered by Cummins with their compressed natural gas option. The options that are out there in my assessment are lean. There's not a lot that is dabbling in the space right now, and the cross current that I speak of is the undertow of pushing toward more of a sustainable future with regard to application of new technology and optionality amongst the different lines as they deploy their fleets out in the logistics space to deliver our goods from day to day. Okay. The question at this point is, Will Hylion have its place? What is the degree of Hylion's market penetration that will be necessary to see this story go from something right now that is deeply, deeply questioned to something that is commercially viable? Okay. We just can't currently don't have those answers now. We don't. And we are alive and well in what I considered to be the ice age and transitional year here in 2023, stepping toward what I feel like is an inevitable end. What that end looks like, my friends, I can't tell you. All right. I can't tell you. But the small pieces, small pieces that have been put in motion, do they add up to more than $1.83 a value? You have a lot of dynamic forces pressing this company down. Okay. We know that it's continually shorted. We know that it's continually downgraded. We know conversely that the large institutions own massive share blocks in the company, conversely supplemented by the fact that retail investors have exited the company at record pace, and that the remaining few people that I speak to into the echo chamber, a few of which I know are out there and listen to the message are holding strong with the idea that the tide will eventually turn and highly on will seek out and settle out at a value that's a little bit more, little bit more indicative of the opportunity rather than the reality that is being assessed now. And that reality, right or wrong, that's being assessed right now in a company that is pushing all-time lows to new lows, it's seemingly every single day and every new week is alive and well. This is just where we are now currently, but when we look at the small pieces, we start with the CEO. We talk about the founder and CEO, Tom Healy, young, energetic, still involved. I see no reprieve in his demeanor, just as committed. Do we interpret the current silence on the line as being a positive or negative? I don't think either one of those really have its place. We can discuss in way of banter on what we think that it means. I for one think there's far more going on behind the scenes than we will be made preppy to and it leaves the investor on a plane to make a decision of whether or not you want to invest in this company for the future or not. We've picked up employees at a very nice clip. Total employee count sits at about 250 right now. It adds to a very lean about business model of operations next year is an anticipated 130 to 140 cash burn, excuse me, this year in 2023 through the Q1 to Q4 quarters of this and next year going into 2024. 130, 140, we can handle that with no problem. Where we are from now until then is every day an exercise in futility watching the clock tick by when and if that happens next week, next month, next year. My friends, we are in this together and if you have the answer, kindly share with me. I will hear you out. Make no mistake, my conviction lies in that those inevitable categories will be forthcoming. They will happen and they will move the stock and they will move the stock faster than you'll be able to react to that I can guarantee. I think a lot of people have pushed the stock down so much that they feel like it is impossible to incur a catalyst next week. It is impossible to expect a catalyst next month or in six months. I think that's a huge, huge mistake and proven to be a huge mistake many, many times in the bullish application of an optimistic investor, many times in history. In other words, I would show you the ace in my back pocket, but I'll tell you what it is now. The ace comes down to the very simple reminder for each and every one of you guys that come to a decision point about this company and ask yourself, with the small tidbits that Ryan's talking about might seem insignificant. Collectively, they're pretty special. In other words, if I was going to drop a pros and cons category over this company, I could probably come up with a pretty good list of both. But I also think that the pro category would far outweigh the negative that I could come up with on this small company if I was being fair and didn't judge the company solely on being a new company. Ryan, they're not making enough revenue. No shit, they're new. Ryan, they're not making sales. No shit, they're new. Ryan, they're not growing fast enough. No shit, they're new. Ryan, they're not certified yet. No shit. You see a pattern here of stating the obvious and expecting me to react and agree with you in a manner that would somehow support your thesis? I don't see merit to that. I don't see merit to that application when we're talking about this company and its potential to go somewhere in the future. I full well understand that if this company was trading for $26 a share, I would nary a receive the scrutiny on the channel, rather a boastful celebration of how incredible Ryan is as an investor. Whereas I'm trying to share with people that it is a lot less if a lot less about luck and a lot more about just a deliberate and thoughtful application in how I go about exercising my opportunity. Did I over lever? I gave you the progression of my stock purchases and I've shared with you for recent stock purchases. I've increased my small position in another account actually all together as a virgin position in the company of 2,500 shares, all of which were purchased around share points of $1.93. Those were those share buys that I've accumulated over the last couple of weeks anyway, 2,500 shares there with an additional 1,000 in the Charles Schwab account that I bought those at $3.17. I look at each of those blocks of shares as potential landmines that I'll continue to monitor and if they stay landmines forever, never to have gone off, I'm okay with that. But my entry price is just that for each respective block of share that I've entered into and I'm telling you this new position in my it's actually in my corporate account. I haven't added anything to the personal accounts nor the brokerage accounts where I've held highly on shares now for years. No problem. I augment the cost basis by entering into what I feel like are oversold and very, very cheap shares now. That's what I'm doing. Ryan, this stock's going to ruin you. How do I respond to such a stupid comment? Most people don't impress me. I wish people could see things the way that I see things more often and just to give you some idea about what that looks like, I don't give two shits what you do. I don't care at all. Now, when I qualified my goal with highly on holdings to make money, my goal is to make you money too. That in its singular sense is the only thing I care about when it comes to my relationship with you. That's it. That is it. This is the column. Nobody's talking about it. Nobody's talking about the potential of actually making money with this opportunity. So I'll lay the framework now to suggest that I will make a shit ton of people money in this opportunity and I will nary a have people come back and just say thank you because that is the way people are. I've got people disagreeing with me just because they disagree with my assessment to the company right now. They think I'm somehow ruining myself. I have worked since I was 12 years old on this earth. The hardest money that I have ever made in this life came early on in my life when I was learning about the value of money and I thought it was the coolest thing that I was getting paid under the table, $5.25 an hour of standing in over 100 degree weather, kneeling down in the dirt, picking weeds at a landscaping depot. That was my first job. I was 12, 12 years old. That was me. It was me. I know I was there. It was my brain. I was there. You just get to see a lot older version of me. And as I've gotten older, I have understood that in the way I can share with people and what I observe about other people, a lot of people make a lot of really, really easy money in legitimate and non-legitimate ways. All is fair in love and war. I'm not here to judge, no problem. You want to engage in illegal activity and make a ton of money easy? That's your thing. You'll have to accept the risks and the ramifications of when and if you get caught. I'm a standup guy. I'm a legit guy. I do everything I do as legitimately as I can. The reason why I tell this story is for you guys to understand that the older that I have gotten, I have understood that making money comes in a lot of different forms. The last week on the stock market has just breathed. It has organically festered $10,000 in my account. I have no idea where or how it happened. Most people would look at $10,000. If they won that at an Indian casino, they would be over the moon. It would be a life-changing event. I just told you that it was immaterial as far as my week goes. I had a good week in the gym. I returned from my obligation. I'm very, very happy. I'm well rested. I made some great strides professionally, both with the business and with my career. Everything's great. Everything is absolutely phenomenal. I share those stories with you guys for you guys to understand that what makes sense for me may just not make sense to you. I know for the masses out there that's just not good enough. People want to hate on me. They want to hate on me because they're not optimist. They're absolutely pessimistic. The criticism comes to try to take optimism and to somehow steer away from the potential of making a mistake. Optimistic people don't fear making mistakes, my friends. They don't. The stock market provides a very, very interesting alternative to gambling in that I get to play my hand when I want to play it. For you pessimistic people out there that are trying your old, ideological, frail, frail, stale, dying on the vine perspectives about how to live life. I wish you all the best. I absolutely do. I have fought. I have won. I have lost. I have fought and not received any verdict as to whether or not I have won or lost on those lifetime battles. I don't know. I don't know. But make no mistake about it, my friends. I am dead serious about this. Dead serious to the extent that if this motherfucker wants to go to zero, I will be there for the long haul. No matter what the fuck you have got to say to me about what I should be doing with my money. Why? Because I am an optimist, not a pessimist, and I will not change my application in this life for me or you or anybody. Now, my aggressive spirit doesn't fit with everybody. So stop coming into the independent investor channel and trying to manufacture the type of energy that I bring to the table. Find your own energy. I give you all of the free will to find and tap that energy that's probably more aggressive than my energy in some capacities. But you will not know that it's there until you start to look and start to figure out in this life that you, the pessimist and me, the optimist at both of our impasses down the line are headed for an inevitable truth. And that will be that we both expire someday. All right. It will be the very reflection upon your life to give you the indication of regret or not regretting the fact that you took a chance and you fought and you lost and you lost a lot. But by God, you won a lot too. I really appreciate you guys tuning in to the message for the weekly highlight on video. Appreciate the continued support. Stocks at all time lows. No doubt about it. Hopefully this gave you some indication of framework below the surface to understand that you are investing in a seed. You are investing in the seed now. There is nothing that is broached to the surface of the soil to give you some indication that by investing in that seed that you're going to have material fruits to bear at some point down the line. When that happens, I'm not a fortune teller. I don't I don't tell you that stuff. I am the realistic applicator to tell you that I don't know and it's admirable for somebody like myself in the position that I'm in to come in and actually admit the things that I don't know, but also tell you the things that I absolutely do know. Guys, hit the subscription button for me to the channel. Appreciate the support. Leave your comments at the bottom of the video. We will be back with you next week on the highly on updates. Guys, thank you so much for tuning in to the message and good luck in your investment future.

Please remember to complete the register so that then we can have that out of the way. So today we're going to discuss ANOVA, how to calculate the analysis of variants and how to complete the table because with ANOVA sometimes when you answer questions you will require to complete the table in order for you to be able to answer the questions that they are asking you to do and always remember all our sessions we're going to refer to the Newman Error Prompt where we're going to ask ourselves before we answer the question what is the question asking us to do what are the facts that are given in the question what are the formulas that we need to be aware of and then only then we can start calculating the question asked. Okay so let's look at our session plan for the next couple of weeks. Today we're looking at ANOVA to take taken out the F test for two population variants we can do that at the later stage we're only going to concentrate on the ANOVA analysis today and then the following week we're going to look at the chi-square test and then we look at the non-parametric test that we have the three non-parametric tests and then we'll look at the linear regression and lastly then it will be the time series so if we have enough time then we can go back to the F test for two population. Okay so that is the schedule for this month. Do you have any question or query before we start with the session for today? If there are no questions then we can just dive in into this week's session. Like I said we're going to be looking at ANOVA the analysis of one-way variants which is the requirements for us to do this we need to know the formulas you need also I forgot here to mention not only the formulas but you also need to have your table and I'm not sure how your tutorial letters this year looks if you have a tutorial letter in a PDF format then they've put the the tables we will require those tables so this one is from the 2020 tutorial letter 101 so they did give them some tables at the back and today we're going to be using this but we're going to be using the F test so we we need to go and look for the critical values of F and that will be the table that we are using for today so this will be the table that we are going to be using I will explain it a little bit later so coming back to our presentation we also need the calculator remember this is maths you need to be doing some calculations and we will be introducing so many formulas that you also need to remember and know how to calculate them. Okay by the end of the session you should be able to learn the concepts of experimental design you should be able to know how to use one-way analysis of ANOVA to test it for the difference amongst the means of several population which we refer here amongst the groups and then also later on we're going to learn how to how do we use a randomized block design to do the same to test the differences amongst the groups so in terms of the ANOVA setting an investigator in a natural wants to control one or more factors of interest and this way each factor needs to contain two or more levels so they at least should be more than two levels within that for example if you have a male and females as one of the gender category and then on the other side you have yes and no you can do a chi-square test but if you have male female and unknown and on the other hand you have tv bars um chocolate ice cream um in terms of things that people are interested in then you need to do because you are comparing two factors you need and those two factors have different levels so the gender has three levels and things that you are interested in has five levels so therefore you can use an ANOVA so if they only have one level or two levels then you need to use the chi-square test okay and the levels can be either numeric or categorical so with ANOVA there is no problem whether it's numeric or categorical you can still use an ANOVA test and the different levels produces different groups so they cannot be the same groups so they need to be they need the two levels or the different levels within that group needs to be different in each group as well think of each group as a sample from a different population and that's what you need to always bear in mind when you are working with the ANOVA as well you just need to make sure that you think of them as two samples that were selected from two different population even though they might come from the same population and you just want to check the differences amongst the groups but think of it as if like they are distinct we need to also observe the effects on the dependent variable so you will have to choose which one will be your dependent variable and that when you do the analysis that way you will need to make sure that the groups are different and also you need to convert all the categorical into a interval scale so that you are able to apply the numerical sorry to apply the ANOVA and when it comes to the experimental design remember now with the experimental design it means then you can select things that you just want to experiment with before you run your normal data analysis as well so you first need to plan how you're going to collect your data that you're going to be using in order for you to calculate the ANOVA so in terms of the ANOVA we can run three different types of ANOVA we can run a one way ANOVA which is the one that we're going to be concentrating on as well as the randomized block design we're going to look at that in your module you're not going to cover any two-way ANOVA which looks at the interaction effect we only look at one effect as well okay so in this session we're not going to touch too much under the take key and multiple comparison we're not going to touch much in terms of Lavine test for homogeneity of variant and also we're not going to touch much in terms of the taking multiple comparison you will have to go and read about that because those form part of the tutorial here we only deal with the skills but I'm going to show you at a basic level how to do an ANOVA test okay so if we need to do a completely randomized design so therefore it means our experimental units needs to be randomly assigned to the group and we need to assume that the subjects are homogeneous we also need only one factor or independent variable needs to be part of the analysis and that factor needs to have at least two or more levels and then we are able to analyze one-way ANOVA if those assumptions are met so in order to evaluate the difference amongst the means of three or more groups also the following assumptions as well needs to also be met as well your population needs to be normally distributed because ANOVA is also one of those tests that you run on a normally distributed population because you also want to infer back the results back to the population your population should have equal variances and the sample should be randomly and independently drawn and that is why you need to treat them as if like they come from two separate populations so for example accident rates for first second and third shift expected mileage for the five brands so those are the accident rates and we can test the difference amongst all this group of accidents uh sorry the we can test the group of the shift expected mileage in terms of the accident rate as well so because with ANOVA we also state then hypothesis because we testing something we test in the difference amongst the group so therefore it means we need to state the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis the null hypothesis will state that all the mean populations are equal so depending so for example the previous one we had three shifts so it means we can say uh the mean for shift one mean for shift two mean for shift three and so forth and so forth they are all equal all population means are equal but it means that there are no factor effect in terms of that so there are no variations amongst the groups that you have selected or the groups that you are using the alternative will state the opposite and it can state that all of them or not all of them so your alternative hypothesis will state that not all the population means are the same so there can be one or two population means that are the same but not all of them should be the same at least one population mean is different and that that will mean that there is an effect a factor effect and it will refer to that the with that factor effect that does not mean that they all the population mean will be different for the hypothesis for the alternative hypothesis so there might be some that are the same as well so let's look at this example of stating the null hypothesis so if we say that the population mean are equal therefore if there are three populations you can see that they are blue red and green and all of them have the same mean at the dotted line they all have the same mean so the null hypothesis is true in terms of this and we can test that so the alternative will state otherwise the alternative might state that the mean one is not the same as the mean two is not the same as mean three or we can say the mean one is the same as mean two but it's not the same as mean three or it can state that all of them are not the same that is the null hypothesis so at least one of them should not be the same as the other the others or all of them can be different okay so how are we going to calculate the ANOVA we need to understand certain definition or certain calculations so in order for us to calculate the analysis of the the one-way ANOVA variants which we need to make sure that we understand that with an ANOVA we always want to calculate what we call the total variant and a total variant it's partitioned into two groups or parts and what do we mean by the total variance the total variance in formula format it's called also it can also be referred to the sum of squares or the total sum of squares which is just the aggregation of the variation of individual data values across the various factor levels then we also because it's split into two and it's split into the group and the errors because there will be some marginal errors in between so therefore the SS group also referred to the sum square among the groups or we can call it among the group variation it is just the variation among the factor sample means and then the errors which we can call them the sum square within within the groups so those we get within the groups the errors I will show you just now I'll demonstrate how each one play a role they within the group error which we can also call it the within group variation it's a variation that exists among the data values within a particular factor and to explain that in a way so remember that we said total variation is your total it's your we said it's your aggregated total variation of the individual data values across various factor levels so now in terms of mathematical formula the total variation or the sum square total we can calculate it by using the sum of your x squared minus the sum of your x squared divided by n so those two are different so the other one is the sum of x squared which means it's x times it will be x plus x plus x plus x sorry it's x squared plus x squared plus x squared plus x squared minus the sum of x it will be when I add all the x's together adding them up and taking the square of the total of all the x's together so those two are different divided by n and in terms of explaining what I just talk about in terms of the total variation so here we have three groups group one group two group three and each group has different values in it or different types in it we can see that the the green dots represent group one so if you look at your dots I represent the the points or the responses in terms of your x value so if I take the mean of all these values so which is the mean of group one group two group three and I'm able to see those differences between the data points and the mean and that is your total variance that we are talking about the variance amongst the group that is the SS group it's given by n times the sum of your x observation the mean of the x minus the mean of all of the groups that you have squared so therefore it means if I have three groups so I'm going to calculate the mean let's go back there I'm gonna calculate the mean of this group so that will be mean one I'm gonna calculate the mean of group two that will be mean two and I'm gonna calculate the mean of group three that will be my mean three but I'm also going to calculate the mean of all these three groups which is this mean x bar so in terms of your sum amongst the group so it mean group one mean of group one minus this mean of all of the groups squared plus the mean of group two minus the mean of all of the groups squared and so forth when we do the example you will see how to use this formula and this will just show you the variation to the difference amongst or that exists among the groups so if I have group one and group two here you can see that the mean of these two groups are different as well and then we also have what we call the mean square measure the mean square group for the group since it's correspond to the sum square of groups the mean square group it's given by your sum square group divided by the degrees of freedom and the degrees of freedom in this instance will be your number of groups you have minus one so it will be the number of groups that you have minus one you're within the group variation which is also called the s s e is given by the total it's given by your sum square total your s s t minus the sum square error which is your s s you're sorry not the s s e but the s s group so your sum square total minus the sum square group will give you your s s e or the within group variation and in terms of the mean square error you will calculate it by using the sum square error divided by the degrees of freedom and the degrees of freedom here will be the number of group times how many um uh sample sizes you have minus one and this will just be summing the variation within each group and then adding them all over the other groups as well and you will see when we look at the ANOVA table how all this come into play so obtaining the sum square measures we already explained this so we did look at the sum square amount which is your s s your m s group and your m s e which is the mean square within uh we did look at the degrees of freedom and then the m s total which is our mean square total it's uh given by the sum square total divided by n minus one where n is just your number of the all the the the values of the group as well so if there are three groups and there are 5555 each n will be equals to 50 because it will be three times five okay so this is the one way ANOVA table that we need to complete when we answer the question so you need to have the source which is either the group or the error and the total you need to have the degrees of freedom for the group it's k minus one for error it's k times n minus one and for the total is n minus one the sums of squares which are your s s so you will calculate your s s group remember your s s group is n times the sum of your mean group minus the mean of all the groups square and then we also need to calculate the s s e which we also remember that the s s e is your s s t minus your s s group therefore it means you need to first calculate your s s group and then calculate your s s t and your s s t you calculate it by using uh the sum of the sum of x squared minus the sum of x squared divided by n so you will have to calculate the error first and then calculate uh sorry you will calculate the group then you will calculate the s s total therefore you will then you can calculate your s s error and then the m s error which will go into the mean square block will be your s s group divided by the degrees of freedom so you just take your sum square divided by the degrees of freedom the same will happen with the mean square error you take the s s error divided by the degrees of freedom that is not the end you need to also calculate the test statistic which is your f test statistic in order to calculate the f test statistics for the one-way ANOVA then we use the m s group divided by the m s error and that will give you your f test statistics but you are not done because you need to make sure that because we're doing a hypothesis testing we need to check whether are we going to reject the null hypothesis or accept the null hypothesis therefore it means you need to go and find your critical value and finding the critical value we're going to use the degrees of freedom and we always use the degrees of freedom by looking at the degrees of freedom for the group and the error so your degrees of freedom for number one will be k minus one which is the for the group or for amongst the group and your degrees of freedom for error will be within the group will be within the group and that will be k times n minus one which n is your sample size okay so how do we find the degree the critical value you will find the critical value by coming to this table where it looks and it gives you the critical values of f distribution and you're going to look at the value of your alpha as well as the degrees of freedom in terms of your table i'm going to rotate it where is my rotate okay so if you look at this table it will always be split by if i scroll to the left it will be split by the alpha value so if they tell you that the alpha is zero comma zero five so you will come to this side if they say alpha is zero comma um other number so this is still zero comma zero five there are other alpha values zero comma zero two five as you can see here so you will scroll through the table to find the right alpha value and then also you have your degrees of freedom one and the degrees of freedom two so remember we use df one in the presentation and on your on your table it will say v one for degrees of freedom one and v two for degrees of freedom two and then you go and look for your degrees of freedom one at the top and the degrees of freedom two on your left and the value that corresponds with where both of them cross that will be your critical value and that's how you will do an ANOVA test so and once you have your critical value then you can make a decision if your test statistics is greater than your critical value it will fall in this tequest color then you're going to reject the null hypothesis and if it falls in this white area you do not reject the null hypothesis so let's look at an example you want to see if three different golf clubs yield different distances you randomly select five measurements from a trial on an automated driving machine for each club at zero comma zero five significance level there is a difference in the mean and they give us three measures of the club in terms of the distance they yielded so we can see that club one yielded those distance you know most when you hit a golf it moves a certain distance so those are the distance calculated for club one and club two and club three now we need to test so let's read the question so we are given five measurements from every time so we are given our n which is our sample sizes which is within each one of the groups so we are now we can already from here we can already identify we have our k which is our group there are three we have n because there are all five measurements measurements in each so that will be five what else are we given we are also given the level of significance which is alpha which is zero comma zero five so therefore it means if we have to go and find the critical value we're going to look at alpha of zero comma zero five and we're going to find the degrees of freedom and come and find the critical value so we have all the information that we need in order to answer our hypothesis test so now remember the steps of hypothesis you need to first step the first step is to state your null hypothesis and have I started the recording maybe I haven't or we did just wanted to check because sometimes you forget and we don't have any recording so now let's start doing the hypothesis because the question is is there a difference in the mean distance so we just need to find out if there are difference among the three groups that we have so the first thing that I need to do is I can visualize the data so that I can see where the points are you don't have to do that in your exam so I'm just demonstrating yeah so here is my group one and I can see where the mean of group one is at and I can look at group two as well and I can see where the mean of group two is at and I can do the same with the group three and I can see where the mean of group three is at because I'm able to calculate the mean knowing that the mean is just the sum of observation divided by how many there are so if I add all this observation for club one and divide them by five I will get 249.2 which is that mean that I see there and I can see that only three distances were above the mean of one and two distances way below and I can also look at club three and club two and if I look at club two only two values one on the borderline but almost two of them on the borderline but two are above the mean of club three and the other one is just on the line and the other one is also like yeah two of them are below the the mean of that but I can also calculate the mean of all this because I can take the mean of club one the mean of club two plus the mean of club three divide by three of them because there are three so it will be the sum which is 249 plus 226 plus 205 divide by three will give me 227 and I'm able to see that with regards to club one, club two, club three the mean of all of them is 227 and I can see that club one all the values are above the mean average and club two only two values or two points are above the group average as well and this is just for visualization purpose and I think much that you need to know about so now there are a couple of things that I also need to calculate so I know that I have calculated the the means I know what the means are but there are a couple of other things that I will need because if I'm going to calculate sst, ssg and sse or msg and ms e and ms t in order for me to complete the entire table there are formulas so for example we know that ssg is the sum of your mean of group one so that one will be easy to calculate because I've got the mean of group one and I've got the overall mean so I can calculate ssg but we will get to that in order for us to calculate ss t we need the sum of x squared we will require the sum so for us to calculate ssg we need the sum of x squared minus the sum of x squared divided by n so here I can calculate the sum of each one so the sum of club one is 1246 the sum of club two is 1300 the sum of club three is 1029 so I have calculated that one part but I also still need to calculate the sum of x squared so to calculate the sum of x squared I must just square each one of these values and square them and it's going to take me forever I've already calculated that and that is the sum of x squared so here you have the total if I add all of them they will give you your sum your sum of x which is the value that we have and I already calculated the sum of x squared so it means we are able to calculate the sum square total now we know the mean I just brought them from that side those were the mean of that we calculated from the beginning and the mean of all of them then we also have the sample size and your overall population and the number of groups so some of this we already identified in the previous slide as well so now let's calculate the sum square total which is the sum of x squared minus sum of x squared divided by n so we did calculate that it was 778,771 I'm hoping that I am reading that correctly there are so many numbers minus 3,405 squared which is the sum square divide by 15 which is our n and remember now our n in this instance we're going to use the capital letter n because it's all three of them and that gives us 586 the sum square group which is n small n so we need to change also that one so this should be a capital letter n there because it needs to include all three groups but with the sum of groups we use the five times the mean of population one or club one minus the mean of the population squared plus the mean of club two minus the population mean of 227 squared plus until you get the rest of them and you calculate and multiply by five and the answer we get it's 4,716.40 and that is our SS group then we can calculate the SS the SSE we know that it is the total minus the group so we just take 5836 minus 4716.4 and that gives us 119.6 so we do have our SSG and our SSE and our SST we can calculate our mean square so let's calculate our mean square group which is your SS group divided by your degrees of freedom which is your k minus one and we know that our k is and we have calculated our our SS group which is 4716.4 divided by three minus one and we find the answer is 2358.2 and we can calculate the MSE which will be your SSE divided by the degrees of freedom which is k times n minus one so we know that k is three and n is five minus one and the answer we get is 93 so now we have the MS group we can then move on and calculate our test statistic and our test statistic is given by the mean square group divided by mean square error so we do have our group divided by our error so our test statistics will be 2358.2 divided by 93 which gives us 25.27 so now this is part of the table so I have my table I can go ahead and start doing my hypothesis testing because I've got all the information I require in order to continue with my hypothesis testing so the first step we state our null hypothesis and our alternative the mean of the populations are equal not all means are equal that is the alternative we need to go and find the critical value we have identified that our alpha was 0.05 our degrees of freedom for one remember we did calculate them actually because the degrees of freedom for one so this will be v one and this will be v two so for one is three minus one which is equals to two so v one will be equals to two and v two will be equals to five minus one is four four times three four times three is twelve so we do have our v one and v two so we can go to the table our alpha is 0.05 we go look for v one of two and v two of 12 and both where they meet that is our critical veil and that's how you're going to identify your critical value and that is your critical value and you can draw up the graph because we're going to use that to state whether are we rejecting the null hypothesis or not remember we did calculate the test statistic so now I don't have to go back and Greek calculate it so there's our test statistic it is 25.275 and we can locate where it falls it falls somewhere way beyond 3.8 because our critical value creates a region of rejection and it's somewhere in the region of rejection and therefore we go into reject the null hypothesis at alpha of 0.05 and conclude that because we are rejecting that they are not different or they are equal we are rejecting that therefore it means there is evidence that at least one mean differs from the rest of the groups and that's how you do analysis of variants. Any question before I move to an Excel template? No question at this point Lisa. Okay so the same information you can use Excel as well to create an ANOVA and this is a screenshot of that Excel as you can see there are your counts there are your sum, square, measures so if you go back to your sum square measures all these values there and the mean and the end they are included on your Excel template as well once when you run when you run your Excel and you get an output that will look like this so it will give you your sum, square measures your mean and your variances and then you can also find the table the ANOVA table so in your module you are expected also to draw up this ANOVA table or to complete the ANOVA table if they give you so they give you the groups the error and you can see all the values that we calculated just as they are from here and it will give you the critical value it will also give you the p-value but we're not going to talk about the p-value so you can go and find the critical value it doesn't give you sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't and if it gives you the critical value it will give you the critical value and you use the critical value and the test statistic to make your decision and that was just an example. So far we have described one way analysis of an variant and we looked at the logic of ANOVA we looked at the assumptions and how to find the test statistics and for the difference of groups so now let's look at an example from one of the past exam paper so that we can practice so if looking at this question from May June it says a partially completed analysis of ANOVA variants which is ANOVA table for a completely randomized design is shown so what is very important as well when we read the question these are the keywords that we need to always read. Randomized design will only have your your groups and error and in this instance the groups are called treatment and the error you will see later on when we look at the experiment or designed then you will see a different table. So this table it provides us with the source it provides us with the sum square measures the mean square measures and the F test so there are question marks as well. We need to be able to know how to complete the entire table without panicking so if you remember your degrees of freedom for treatment if I can draw the same table just the end next door to it as a generic table I'm going to call this the source and I'm going to call this treatment error and total now my treatment and error my treatment and total are almost exactly the same but there are two different measures okay so we know that we have a degrees of freedom we always need to remember that the degrees of freedom for treatment is the number of groups you have minus one for the error is the number of groups times the sample size minus one for the population it's the total population minus one so now if you look at the degrees of freedom you should already be mindful of what is happening so it means the six is the same as k minus one is equals to six if I need to find out what my k is I can always say k is the same as six plus one which means k is seven so there were seven groups in this dataset because of that six in order for me to find my error I know that my degrees of freedom for error so degrees of freedom for error it's given by k times n minus one but I don't know what my n is it's easy to find the degrees of freedom because this value here the k minus one plus the k times n minus one should give me n minus one so if I have this question mark there I can also use I can say it's 41 minus six and that will give me the the error the degrees of freedom there so which will be what is 41 minus six 41 minus six it's 35 it's 35 so that is my degrees of freedom here so I can also come here and put it there it's 35 so I know what my k is so I can also come in right there k is seven which I don't have to use it anymore I just need it because I think we might need it some way when we answer some of this question so what else can I do they didn't give me this value which is the sum square error so I am told what my s s s e s s t is I am given I'm gonna call this not t but I'm gonna call it group for argument sake so that then I have two different distinct t's um and then I'm also given s s e which I don't have so we need to find s s e but I'm also told what s s t is so I know that s s e is s s t minus s s g so if I have my s s t and I have my s s g I can just substitute 46.5 minus 17.5 and that will give you 46.5 minus 17.5 equals 24.5 24.5 so the answer here is 24.5 now I can calculate my m s error now my s m s t and m s because I need to find my test statistic my f test as well so calculating m s just leave it yes so I'm interrupting for s s e I got 29 you got 29 what did I do wrong it's 46 oh sorry my bad I think I calculated something wrong yes okay uh it's 20 29 25 29 just 29 right just 29 is yeah I think I pressed something wrong on the calculator as well okay so that is 29 so in order for us to calculate the f test we need m s we need m s m s g and we also need m s m s e but yet I didn't put a question mark it doesn't matter whether they put a question mark or not the fact that on the f there is a question mark and in the question as well there is a an f test so we need to calculate m s g which is your s s g divide by your degrees of freedom which is your k minus one so our s s g 17.5 divide by our degrees of freedom of six because already they have given it to us so you go and calculate that once you've calculated that you can also calculate your m s e which is your s s e divide by your k n minus one which is also we've calculated that which was 29 divide by 35 we did calculate and that will give you the answer so let's calculate so 17.5 divide by six what do you get 2.912.916 okay I'm gonna leave it at four decimal and what is 29 divide by 35 that's a 0.8286 0.8286 so now we're not done we need to calculate the f the f state which is the test statistic and let's calculate the f state which is your m s g divide by your m s e so our m s g is 2.9167 divide by 0.8286 2.9167 divide by and we might have a problem because we might have a problem of rounding off too quickly 0.8286 equal 3.52 I'm just gonna leave it at two decimals 3.52 so we have most of the we have that value there that value there that value there so we completed our ANOVA table so let's look at the answers which statement is incorrect the number of treatment involved in the experiment is six we're looking for the incorrect answer the number of treatments involved so how many treatments do we have that is our k how many treatments do we have we only have seven so this is the incorrect one but we can also check the logic of other questions the total sample size is equals to 42 the sample size is n capital letter n in this instance I'm gonna use big capital letter n to differentiate between the total and the sample size because there is a small n and a capital letter n so 41 how did we get 41 41 is the same is the same as n minus 1 which is equals to 41 which n will be equals to 42 so the total sample size is 42 right that will be correct the mean square of treatment which is mst is 2.9167 what did we get 2.1967 right that is correct because our msg is is our treatment since we have got two t's we changed it to msg the the mean squares for error which is our mse is 0.8286 which is what we calculated which is correct and our test statistics we also did calculate it which is correct so and that's how some of your questions will look like in the exam and the same will be the same or apply when you are calculating also the ANOVA for their experimental design okay any question I wanted to find out do we get those formulas for the exam okay yes you do get the formulas so now because you're writing an online exam depending if this year they go back to normal and they say you venue based you you will receive formulas for the online exams you just need to bring your own piece of paper that has all the the formulas close by that you can use as a reference like if for example your lecturer might send you closer to the exam to say these are the formulas in sheet that you can use to answer the exam questions because with formulas they also like remove all the noises all the other irrelevant formulas that you might find and then give you the only formulas that you might need for that exam as well but it will also depend on your lecture but formulas are given okay so now let's look at how we do a randomized block design so similar to the one way ANOVA for the randomized design there is one way you can create blocks within the groups so we are with this one we test for equal population means as well but we want to control for possible variation for the second factor and the levels of the second effect effect secondary factor are also called the blocks so because we're adding another level because we are going to split the total variation into those three because to accommodate the blocks that we are splitting the the levels with so we're going to say our sum square total or the total variation will be given by a variation among the group variation among the block and the eras okay so we have used those three before sst ssa and sse and we know that sse is sst minus s ss group now because we do have the block we also need to take that into consideration so the formula for sst stays as is the formula for ssa stays as is and we only just need to make adjustment when we calculate sse we going to say that we need to accommodate the block so in terms instead of just saying ss ss t is ss sorry ss e is ss t minus ss a we just going to say it ssa plus ss bl which is for the block okay however in terms of finding the degrees of freedom and calculating the ms blocks the formula will be different because then it will be ssb divided by the degrees of freedom and here the degrees of freedom will be r minus one and for the among the groups will be c minus one and then for the eras it will be r minus one times c minus one which are your number of groups your c will be the number of populations that you have and r will be the number of blocks that you have as well so let's look at an example of an ANOVA table of randomized block and that is ssb ssa ss e and ss t and your degrees of freedom are minus one c minus one and r minus one times c minus one and for the total it will be your number of population times your number of blocks which will just give you the total number of observations that you have minus one and when we calculate the test statistic you're going to have to calculate it for both the amongst the block and among the group um by for the blocks you're going to say msb divided by ms e and for among the group we're going to say msa divided by ms e so let's do the test so the mean the hypothesis testing will still state the mean population one and mean population two are the same and your hypothesis your alternative hypothesis will state that not all populations are equal and you're still going to calculate so you're going to be asked to calculate the test statistic for among the test statistics are among the block or among the group so you just need to always remember that so if they say calculate the test statistics among the groups then you need to know that you're going to be using the ms among the group which will be your ssa and amongst the block we will use the ssb and you're also going to find the critical value and make a conclusion either you reject the non hypothesis or not the method of the previous session still applies okay so let's look at an example here you are given an ANOVA table in a randomized block design and there it is the keyword block design and I can also see that on my table you will you have three things previously you only had two things so now I have three things so I'm looking at the block design and it's shown it is shown below where the treatment will refer to the blood pressure and the drugs and the blocks will fit to different groups of men with high blood pressure use the given ANOVA table to answer the question can we infer at five percent level of significance that the treatment differ so that is what the question is asking so the first step that we need to do number one is to state the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis it's easy null hypothesis the mean one is equals to mean two it's equals to mean three how many are they there are so many I'm just gonna go and say it's equals to mean n and the alternative not all population mean I can just use mu not all population mean are the same that is our hypothesis we are given number two our alpha is 0,05 therefore we can go and find our degrees of freedom or our critical value so our degrees of freedom for v1 and v2 remember we take them from here now you need to be very very careful with this remember now we have treatments and blocks so you just need to always remember that blocks it's r minus one it will be your v1 and groups will be your v2 right so let's go and do that so our blocks oh you can also just it will not really matter that much but let's say our our v1 it's for our v2 is six we can also go in and check if we do the vice versa one so let's go find the critical value so v1 we set the answers are four and six four and six and we said we can also check if it's six and four will give us the same answer so four is our v1 and six our v2 so there for this one we get 4.53 if we use the other the other side we said it's six and four can you see that it doesn't give you the same answer it will give you two different answers and that will confuse you so you just need to make sure that you assign the right v1s and v2s to the right groups as well so in this instance we can say this is our v1 and this is our v2 and go and answer there and we found that it is 5.43 and our f of zero comma zero five which is our critical value it is four comma what did we say five three four comma five three now we need to find our test statistics you can see that they have two different test statistics but we need to read the question carefully it says are they different for the test so it means we only need we only require that one actually I even did it all wrong because we're not supposed to take this one we supposed to take the degrees of freedom of error not of so v1 and v2 is your error which is 22 sorry my bad I used the wrong the wrong number it's 24 so therefore this is not also correct since I used the wrong one your v1 is for the treatment because we're doing the mean difference for the treatment so we must remember it's not the same as the previous one so v1 is for the treatment and v2 will be the error and we need to go back because we did it all wrong so v1 we said it is four and v2 is 24 so it's four and we need to go to 24 and where they meet 2.78 2.78 now we know what our our test statistic is our test statistic is f is equals to f that we've calculated that it is 14.6 I mean I leave it at 2 decimal 14.61 now we need to go and make a decision so I can just draw so for this f test always a one sided test so they will be your f critical value here your f critical value which is 2.78 and anything that falls in the shaded area we go into reject so 14.14.61 falls in the shaded area so we go into state that therefore our decision will be we reject the null hypothesis at alpha of 0 comma 0 5 and we conclude that there is sufficient evidence that not all mean population are the same and that's how you will conduct a hypothesis testing let's look at another so this is the same sorry that's how you state your null hypothesis how you find your critical value so I just did it manually but you can see that we followed all the steps and we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis at least two more than two treatments differ or they are not the same okay so in the exam you do get tables like this they will already have calculated and completed everything they just asked you the questions so all you just need to remember is know what is calculated where how do we calculate the treatment degrees of freedom how do we calculate the block degrees of freedom how do we find the the critical values how do we state the null hypothesis so looking at these two questions or this question question number 12 it says given the information in the table which one of the following statement is incorrect number one is that true or false based on what we know about stating hypothesis testing for ANOVA is that statement correct or incorrect the statement will be correct because always remember yes always remember that when you do ANOVA the null hypothesis will state that all populations mean are equal okay um the alternative is that statement correct or incorrect it's correct it will be correct because it has to state that at least two or it can say not all of them differ or all of them are not the same or at least two means differ from the rest of the other groups the number of blocks used in this treatment is three is that true how do we then find the blocks the number of blocks the degrees of freedom we still remember how do we find that it's c minus one for the treatment is r minus one so are they three number of blocks yes yes that is true because c minus one should be equals to two in that instance therefore your c will be equals to three because if I move one to the other site it will add to two and create them the number of treatment used is four is that correct that's incorrect that will be the incorrect one because they have four degrees of freedom treatment therefore they are r minus one r minus one so then it is r is equals to five the number of observation collected in this experiment is 15 that will be true because remember that will be r minus one times c minus one um oh sorry I'm using the error one rc minus one rc rc minus one yes so it's rc which is three times five it will give us 15 am I doing something wrong now yeah let me not even go there okay and this is another example of how they can ask questions in the exam now if you look at this they give you some details about the one way and over some calculations that they already did they give you your n your mean your standard deviation you don't even need the standard deviation s one is two s three but they give you that and then oh sample one sample two sample three I'm not sure what they refer to s one s two s three then they also give you your some square total and some square error and they're asking you calculate your test statistic what they haven't given you here is what your ms your msg or ms yes they didn't give you your ssg they didn't give you your msg but if you can remember that ss e is equals to ss t minus ssg you can find ssg right because if I move ssg this side it will be positive and I move ss t this ss e this side it will be negative and then I can just substitute the values so I have 500 and 60 minus 693 and that is 133 minus 133 33 so if I have my ssg and my ss e then I can also calculate my you should be able to calculate your msg msg but now my msg will be negative otherwise you can use that for the formula so let's see if we use the formula if we can get also the ss remember that your ssg is given by your n times the sum of your mean observations minus mean groups which are those groups that you are given minus the mean of all of them squared so now if I you need you can calculate the mean which will be that mean that we're going to substitute there which is 40 plus 48 40 plus 48 plus 50 equals 138 divide by 3 which is equals to 46 so you can also calculate it and say there are what is your n n is 10 plus 10 plus 10 is that oh no n will be this small it's 10 because then we're going to multiply everything with that so it's 10 and we're going to say 40 minus 46 squared plus because is the summation 48 minus 46 squared plus 50 minus 46 squared close bracket and we can calculate everything so I'm just going to open my calculator we'll do it all at once 40 that is if it will allow me to include all of them bracket 48 minus 46 plus brackets plus open bracket 50 minus 46 brackets with and close bracket and equal I get 500 n 60 yes I've got the same as well unless if these people calculated s s t wrong they used that is why it will not make sense to get a negative answer so yes so your s s s g it's 500 and 60 right so this they did something wrong there that is why I was wondering why would it be a negative value cannot be a negative value there okay but then it's fine because now we have s s g and and and s s e we can calculate m m s g which is s s g divide by degrees of freedom maybe this are the degrees of freedom I am not sure now also with this question that they have so I'm going to use this as the degrees of freedom so that will be no it cannot be five minus one it cannot be so there are three groups so it will be k minus one oh okay it is k minus one so our s s g is 560 divide by our groups there are three so it three minus one and what is five five 60 divide by two it's 280 that will be 280 and we can do the same with m s e uh m s e is s s e over k times n minus one our s s e is 693 over our k there are groups there are three times 10 minus one which is 693 over 9 times 3 is 27 so 693 693 divide by 27 is 25.66666 25.66666 i'm just gonna keep four decimals so i'm gonna remove one of the six and put the seven okay so you know the question was calculate the f test statistic f stat will be given by your m s g divide by divide by m s m s g is 280 divide by 25.6667 20 280 divide by 25.6667 equals 10.90 10.90 i think i must leave it four decimals for now 909 and if i leave it to four decimals then it will be 9091 okay so let's look at the answers so that is the correct answer so the tricky part here is to also be mindful of the values that you have because if you have taken what you have here and did what i did initially then you would have gotten the wrong answer so this is misleading we can just ignore that if you do verify your data you can see that your s s t will be smaller than your s s e then it means there is something wrong because we know that s s t it's your s s g plus your s s e that's what one thing that we know of okay so those are typical questions that you will get in the exam when it comes to the ANOVA i do hope you can find more activities that you can go through so just in closing and to wrap up we have to the end of the session we have described the one way ANOVA we looked at the logic behind the analysis of variants we looked at the assumptions how do we do some calculations in terms of finding the test statistics and making the decision therefore it means doing the hypothesis testing to test for the difference amongst the groups we also looked at the randomized block design where we looked at the block effect in terms of how we do the test of differences when we include also some blocks um any questions any comments any query we have one minute left are there any questions no no questions it was a good session actually i think it's just more to practice to get used to using the formulas as well yes yes yes yes yes all right so if there are no questions we can go and enjoy our evening have a lovely evening and bye bye thank you please don't forget to complete the register

How Intuit Manages Cloud Resources Via GitOps - Jerome Kuptz & Ameen Radwan, Intuit
Don’t miss out! Join us at our upcoming event: KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe in Amsterdam, The Netherlands from April 17-21, 2023. Learn more at https://kubecon.io The conference features presentations from developers and end users of Kubernetes, Prometheus, Envoy, and all of the other CNCF-hosted projects. How Intuit Manages Cloud Resources Via GitOps - Jerome Kuptz & Ameen Radwan, Intuit Speakers: Jerome Kuptz, Ameen Radwan At Intuit, there are 1000 development teams consisting of 7500 developers given freedom to pick infrastructure as code (IAC) solutions that best fit their needs for the cloud. In addition to this autonomy, we support teams defining their own automation using different tools. While this freedom gives developers flexibility, creating a process that supports all teams across multiple cloud providers in a large, multi-platform organization with authorization & access controls was overwhelming. Intuit needed a solution for these challenges while keeping developer friction to a minimum. In response, we have created an open source project named Cello, which is a service for running IAC solutions via GitOps. By utilizing GitOps process with IAC, Cello improved developer velocity managing the lifecycle of cloud infrastructure, while maintaining flexibility & security standards. Come learn how Cello helps Intuit engineers unify management of cloud resources while retaining existing processes.

If you haven't heard of Intuit, just a little brief introduction about us. You may know TurboTax MailChimp, but we run services on Kubernetes modern SaaS and we're moving billions of dollars through our systems as well as billions of machine predictions and such things every day. Amongst the five platforms at Intuit that we have as teams, I mean, and myself are from the Productivity and Experiences platform and here are the numbers you can see to scale of what we attend to on a daily basis for our engineers at Intuit. And finally, Intuit's big in the open source community. We just received the end user award in 2019 and you may have noticed in the keynote we got it again this year. We're also very involved with many projects as contributors as well as maintainers and these are just some of them out there. And quick agenda. So we're going to go over a little bit about our history, what our landscape looks like at Intuit, discuss a little bit about the problem and then we'll go over a solution, show you a demo and do a Q&A. So with that, we'll go ahead and get started. So it's been on this journey for quite a while. Back in about 2013, we've got, all right, cool, sorry. So yeah, okay, we started very narrow, we declared we're going to be all in the cloud. So we were getting out of data centers at that time. And we started with just a few applications, a few of our services and once we had success with those, we decided about, let's say 2017 or so, dates are years are a little hazy at times. We shifted the scale. So we had such good success, we're like, we're going to push everyone now. Let's all go into the cloud. So there's much broader adoption within the company. So engineers were creating all kinds of cloud resources, AWS accounts, whatever they needed to do, they were pretty free to meet the needs of their services and applications. And then we just stumbled into the kind of, I think a problem many of you may have had working at larger companies and you end up with a large EC2 fleet and that gets to be a bit painful to manage, which about I think 2018 to around there led us to containers, which obviously led us to Kubernetes and scaling up on that. So all our services are pretty much in Kubernetes on containers now. We don't really run as much in EC2 anymore. And that was a modernization of our services. Now we've had great success with that. We were still left with a lot of stuff in AWS for lack of a better word. So we've been going down this path of modernization of that while applying similar principles that we did with our services. But in order to get there, we had to take a look at our landscape. If you deploy anything in AWS, you know, you just don't deploy one or two little things necessarily. You're going to end up with IAM roles or whatever other supporting types of resources. So for a lot of our services, they had to have RDS, SQS buckets, things like that to all the kinds of persistence and messaging you would need to do their job. So we categorized that as supporting resources. Then we had some things we were using called resources that weren't really container-based. These would be like SageMaker or Amazon Connect or something like that without, couldn't put those in containers. So we just had to kind of figure out how to deal with those. And finally, we still had some what we would consider legacy, not necessarily legacy from the perspective of the technologies, but legacy to us because we couldn't move these into containers necessarily. And we weren't ready to just completely turn them off or do something else with them at this point. So with that in mind, what was the problem we were seeing out there? Well, first, we found a lot of engineers were making various types of solutions for themselves, which is going to happen in a heavy engineering org. In this first column, we're looking at the orchestration column, if you will. It's custom automation, so from soup to nuts, doing everything they can possibly do to manage their cloud resource. And then they would get down to just doing something in Jenkins. I just wrote a little script and just pop it into that whole workflow good enough. And then you've even got, as well, the manual people. This would be laptops, my bash script, maybe someone goes and counsel and does some random things they needed to do, or just deploying even a cloud formation stack in there. And once we found that, we looked at what was it they were using. Well, on the whole cloud formation a lot, we had some use of cloud development kit, and we also had use of Terraform as well. And it could be across these different orchestrations, they could be using cloud formation and cloud development kit, or cloud formation and Terraform even as well. So lots of different solutions using lots of different infrastructure as code amongst our engineers. And they've traditionally had a lot of freedom to pick these different things that into it to service their abilities. So I felt a bit like this, we're chasing a lot of wires, looking where they connected, who was connected to what, finding out where it all went. So we step back, said we need to come up with a few principles here. Otherwise, whatever solve we come up with is not going to be able to solve everything, or at least give the engineers enough of a platform to do their business. First thing was to align with our existing standards. They may be internal standards, industry standards, but whatever those were, we need to make sure we were within guidelines of those. If we were going to develop anything, it should be as open source were possible, as you saw in the initial slides, we are very open source friendly now. So we want to continue with that path as well. Finally, whatever we did, we had to be cloud agnostic. You don't know what's going to happen one, two, three years. Do you stay on AWS? Do you use something else or whatever? So we didn't want to put ourselves in that position where we couldn't move. And infrastructure as code with GitOps, a lot of people, little GitOps, they use Git, but they're pretty much just running a little orchestration engine half the time where they're just running a script or something. So we want to bring that GitOps experience to that infrastructure as code as well. And isolation from the cloud environment, meaning we didn't want anybody touching it with their manual laptop or going directly to their cloud accounts with Jenkins or something like that. So we realized some things were missing. We could certainly align with existing standards and we could already isolate from the cloud environment in multiple ways. But we didn't have anything that open source really met the needs of the engineers being able to pick whatever they wanted. Whatever we were currently doing was definitely not cloud agnostic. And then they weren't using infrastructure as code with GitOps. That was sometimes just foreign for them. So this led us to need to create our own service. So we'd like to introduce our service called Cello. And what is Cello? It is an engine for cloud deployments. It lets us run infrastructure as code with GitOps. It gives us that isolation from the cloud environment. And it is open source. And with that, we are going to run through a little demo. So I would like to hand off to my co-presenter, Amin. Thank you. So before we actually get into the demo, first I want to talk a little bit more about where Cello fits into our overall ecosystem from a developer perspective. So first we are going to walk through a brief hypothetical scenario for a developer that wants to work on a new project. Let's say I'm a developer and I want to make a new Lambda project that into it or something. So the process from my perspective would be I'm going to come to some internal developer portal. This doesn't have to be like anything fancy or anything. We just need some UI so we can ask some questions like what type of thing are you working on? What AWS account do you want to deploy to? The kind of questions you need to know when starting up a new project. So we take that information. We end up sending it to an orchestration layer. The details of that orchestration layer don't matter. But essentially we need to talk to you a bunch of different systems because we need to set up infrastructure for our users, right? Because when I make a new project, I need a place to store my code. I need a way to deploy it and I need that nice integrations that I have continuous integration deployment. So the first thing that orchestration layer will call is GitHub. We need to start with our code. So we'll make a couple repositories for our project. For the sake of consistency with our services, we end up making an application code repo where we'll store our infrastructure as code as well as a deployment repo where we store our manifests. I'll get into some of the more specific details about what I mean by manifests when we get to the actual demo part. But we basically in a similar way to Kubernetes manifest, we have cello manifests. So once I have my GitHub repositories, then we end up talking to cello. I have these repositories where I'm going to be doing some cloud infrastructure. I'm going to be writing cloud infrastructure code. I need a way to deploy it. So we end up calling cello and telling it we've got this new project going on. We're going to be deploying things out of this repository. Cello will do some work, give us the necessary things we need in order to do those deployments, and it will give us back a nice cello project token. That token will allow us to essentially make calls to cello so that we can deploy specifically for this particular project. So we'll take that token and then we'll use that token to talk to Jenkins. Jenkins is our CI CD platform that we use at Intuit. This doesn't necessarily have to be Jenkins. This could be any CI platform. It could be GitHub Actions, Travis, whatever. As long as you have the ability to store secrets really, it could be anything. So we will end up creating a new Jenkins job for our project associated with that GitHub repo that we made earlier and store that cello project token so that that way our Jenkins job will be able to call cello when it needs to. And so we'll make all these different pieces of infrastructure and then we'll go back to a user, either send them an email or give them a message on a UI or something. And we'll say, hey, we've made all this infrastructure for you. You should get started on coding or whatever. Cool, but what does that look like for the actual developer on a day-to-day experience? So the process for actually developing code and actually writing your cloud resources ends up looking a little bit like this. So first things first, I'm a developer working on my project. I'll write up some code. I'll make a PR, get my teammates to approve it, and I'll get that code merged into master. So the moment that code gets into our master main, whatever your default branch is, so the moment that code gets into our default branch, we're going to kick off a Jenkins build. So immediately we'll go through, we'll start our CI pipeline, and it'll do all the things you would normally expect. Let's build our infrastructure as code, make sure it passes all our tests, make sure it passes any security checks or linting rules, anything like that. And then once we've made sure all our code looks good, we'll package it up, and then now is the part where we get back to our actual deployment process. We know our code is good. We know it's all ready to go. So now we're going to deploy it to our various accounts. So this is where Jenkins will actually use that token. We talked about earlier. It'll take that token from, or take that token, and then use it to call the cell APIs and tell it, hey, I need to do some operations. I need to do some stuff. I need to see the difference between what I previously had in my AWS account, for example, and what's now there. So Jenkins will end up calling cello. Cello will perform this operation, and it will end up streaming the logs for the operation back to Jenkins that the user can see, oh, cool. If I go through with this, I will be adding this new Lambda, or I'll be making a new SQS queue or whatever. And then once they see that, they might say, yeah, I want to actually deploy that right now. Press an approve button, and then same thing. Jenkins will end up calling cello. Cello will go through the deployment process, kick off that build, whatever infrastructure as code process that is, whether it be like Terraform apply, or CDK deploy, or just whatever cloud formation, or whatever thing it needs to do depending on the infrastructure as code languages. It's going to use that, it's going to make, run those commands, and stream those logs back to Jenkins, and the developer will be able to see, oh, cool, my resources are deploying, awesome. And so through that whole process, the developer within as little as potentially five minutes, depending on how complicated their infrastructure is, they'll go from, I merged a PR, and I got my code into my default branch to, oh, my resources are all deployed and ready to go, and I can actually start testing against it. I can actually start making API calls to my Lambda, or whatever, whatever they end up needing to do. So that's what the ends, that's how all of this kind of fits together. So now I will get a little bit more into cello itself. So we have a brief demo, kind of showing what cello is, how it actually works under the hood. Basically walking through the process of what it, it's not going to actually, oh, it's a slightly different, oh, it's a slightly different screen size, I guess. That's fine. It's not actually, okay, whatever. So we're basically going to walk through this quick demo. So I have it pre-recorded just because I didn't want to worry about network connectivity or anything like that. But essentially this is what I would be running on my computer. So for a little bit of context here, the idea here is we have a sample CDK application. You don't need to know necessarily CDK in particular. This could be any infrastructure's code language. The thing you really need to know is I write some TypeScript code, it makes a queue and a topic, and we want to get that into our AWS account. And so I have cello running locally in this terminal right below this code. And so what we're going to be doing here is we're kind of going to walk through the API calls that would be happening if I want to actually see how I could different deploy this code to some sample AWS account I had. So now we are going to skip forward a tiny bit. All right, so the first thing that would happen is we need to create a project in cello. So going back to some of those principles we're talking about of separating out our, isolating our environments, grouping, making sure we follow infrastructure's code as a main principle. We want to create a, we want to create this nice little project. That way you can say, we've got this project here. It will be deploying out of this repository. And anything I do, any operations I do related to this repository, we're going to basically be using, we're going to be deploying by reading some information from that repository and deploying to it. In this case, we happen to be using the cello project because we have some example, example infrastructure manifests in that repository, but this could be whatever your repository you want to use. It's just a matter of coincidence that happens to also be the cello project repo. So we would end up, I'm going to skip ahead a tiny bit. So I keep talking about these manifests. I'll talk a little bit more about that. So essentially kind of like how in Kubernetes you have the idea of a manifest kind of describing, oh, these are types of things we need to deploy. We have this idea of cello manifests. So like if I have a couple of different environments and I have a couple of different things I need to deploy and I want to deploy in a certain way, we have a couple of different manifests to say, oh, we have this, we have this CDK application. It's going to be, we're going to be using CDK. We have a couple of args we need to pass whenever we do this deployment, some environment variables. We have, we want to use this particular project. We need to do, we want to do these types of operations. So we'll declare this manifest that has that information. And so these manifests will live in that deployment repo that I was talking about earlier. And so we'll have that set up. We'll call our create project API and now we'll get back this cello project token. So this is the token I was talking about back in that initial onboarding overview I was talking about. Essentially, the idea behind this token is we want to have a token specific to this particular project because we want to make sure if I'm doing the operations I'm really only doing operations specific to my particular project, my particular application. So we make a, so we'll make a token and we'll end up just saving it somewhere so that later when we actually call some of our other APIs later we will actually be able to use it for this project. So then we'll end up saving that forward a bit. So we end up saving that away. And then, so next step is we end up creating a target. So the idea behind targets is you might have a couple of different places you want to deploy to. Maybe you have like a pre-prod environment and like a production environment or like maybe you have different environments or whatever and going back to the idea that separation of concerns we want to make sure we use as little permissions as possible when we do different operations. So the idea here is we will create a target specific to each thing we want to deploy to so that when I do a deployment using my QIL target or something I only have the permissions I really need to do that. So in this case we are creating a target here and we actually say we want to scope it down to this specific AWS role or we want to use these specific permissions. And so we end up creating that target. The names for these projects and targets are just kind of sample ones. You can name them whatever you really wanted to. Probably something more useful to like how you want to actually, you'd probably name it something like the name of your environment or the name of your account or something like that. So anyway, we end up making this target. And so now we've done these initial pre-steps that we do as a one-time operation. Now that we've done that, we can actually get to the actual, the actual main operations we want to do. So the idea here is we're going to take that cello token we decided earlier and we end up using that as our authorization so we can call our main operations API. And so the idea here is we want to do an operation. We know what project we want to, what project we're using. We know what target we want to deploy to and we'll tell it, hey, we want to make a new deployment. We have this manifest here at this in our GitHub repo. Here's the SHA that we actually want to deploy. And so it will, and so we will call this operation's API and cello will do a process of looking up that manifest and actually kicking off an operation. So what do I mean by operation? Well, an operation essentially kicks off in our workflow and the idea of what's happening here is based on the configuration that we had in that manifest, we're going to kick off a new workflow and we're going to actually do whatever that workflow, whatever that manifest tells us to do. So in this case, this API call is actually kicking off a CDK diff, which is essentially telling us, is essentially how CDK lets us see, oh, here's what you previously had and here's what you, here's what your changes would do into your account. So we send the API call over and we get back a workflow name, basically just the name of the workflow that got kicked off by cello. And so now once we have that workflow name, we can actually see some of the different details about the status of that workflow. So we can actually see things like the, we can see like the status of that workflow, we can see did it succeed or not, we can see, we can see the, yeah, so we have an API to get the status of that workflow and we can see things like the logs if we wanted to. So we can see this one already succeeded and we can actually get details for the logs and these logs will kind of show us what's happening. We can actually see, oh, we use that cello token to talk to Vault and get some, get a temporary AWS credential. We can actually see it pulled down our CDK code and we can see, oh, we did some bootstrapping and then there is a giant stack of texts at the bottom saying, oh, these are the resources you, these are the resources we're adding or deleting or whatever. This would obviously look different depending on what infrastructure is code language you're using and what exactly you're trying to deploy, but that's essentially the main idea. This, in practice, you probably wouldn't use, you probably wouldn't want to read it like this. You probably would want to use, we have a streaming API for the logs also so that if you want to just like see it directly in Jenkins or like a CNCI or like something like that, you could use that also. It depends on what you're ultimately trying to do, but that's essentially the main idea. We want, by using cello, we are able to create the project and targets for our specific, for specific use cases and then when we want to do new things like make new code changes, we end up performing these operations and we can actually see how those operations are going. So that's essentially the idea there. That's it for the demo, so now I'll go back to the presentation. All right, so that was our deep dive into cello. Now I'm going to talk a little bit about how we've been using cello add into it. So internally we've been using cello for essentially the past year and in that time, we've been getting a lot of adoption internally. We've created over a thousand projects using cello for various cloud deployments as well as 150 of those, more than 150 of those projects deploying cloud resources all the way up to production. So we've been getting a lot of internal usage but we still have more things we want to do with this. So now I'm going to talk a little bit about what's next. So there are a couple of key features we want to work on. One of them being a better credential provider extraction. So one of the things I briefly, I very vaguely mentioned but didn't go into too much detail about was how do we do that credential exchange between various cloud accounts? Right now we are using Vault. If you haven't heard about it, it is another open source project. I'm not going to get too much into details of it but we want to make a better abstraction for that so you can swap out different credentials providers as needed. Another feature we want to work on is more multi-cloud support. So one of the things we really focused on was when we were designing our principles was we want to be able to support multiple clouds. That being said, internally at Intuit, we obviously have a grand majority of our things on AWS. So we want to do more to actually support other cloud providers like GCP, Azure, whatever. So that's something we want to improve on further. And then finally, potential things like, oh, it's great that we have these APIs that allow us to do these operations but it would be nice if we could make that process a little easier because not everyone wants to use APIs for everything, right? So one of the things we were thinking about for eventual plans would be having a nice user interface. If people could just press a button kind of like in the way like Argo does to roll back this operation or like deploy our things, those kinds of things. So those are some of the features that we were planning on working on next. And now I'm going to pass it back over to Jerome to talk a little bit about wrapping up. So yeah, so thank you, Amin. Yeah, we'd love for you to come out, try Cello out, give us feedback. We have a great quick start, I think. You could set up fairly quick, less than a few minutes. It'll have vault, it'll have all the things it needs and you can try it out with an AWS account together. We have examples in the repo and we have all our documentation up there as well to help you along with that. Thank you, everyone. We're open for questions now. Go ahead, come. Thank you very much for presentation question. What brought you to the conclusion that you need to develop this tool? Why don't you just put the pipeline inside the Jenkins pipeline and it should work perfectly. Right, so our engineers, we have about 6,000 engineers and traditionally they have always picked their own ISE or their own deployment mechanisms. So in order to support them widely, we did want to push them down one homogeneous solution because that has not traditionally worked for us. So we went with a more open solution which allowed also easier path to migration for those, for our engineers. First, thank you for the talking, it's very nice. My question is, in the talking, you create the token for a trailer project, for each project. How do you manage the token? Like, rotate the token, do you have automation in place in Trallow? Yeah, so we do have a couple APIs in place for the token rotation process. So these project tokens are medium long-lived tokens. They're like, I think they expire automatically in a year by default. But we have a couple APIs in place. This kind of goes back to that thing we were talking about, credential provider abstraction, but in the case of Vault, that means we will, we have an ability to clear out and revoke those tokens or make new ones by using some APIs if we need to. And just one follow-up on that is that when we use it, we're not using long-lived tokens, long-lived secrets in the AWS accounts themselves. We're actually getting temporary credentials when we actually do a deployment action. So that token is just for cello use with the integral. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, gosh, sorry. Good question. So you mentioned how different teams have, you know, kind of choose their own adventure, so to speak, as far as their tooling. I see we, I think the API makes sense as far as like the spec, but I'm just kind of curious maybe for the developer experience. Like, do they, did you guys provide, because there's a lot of different API calls. You have to probably manually call and like postman and stuff like that. Could you give a little bit more insight of the experience of an Intuit developer team having to, you know, when they leverage the API, how that generally looks and maybe some metrics, like how long it takes for them to onboard with it and all those kind of things. Sure. I think you've got one thing to say at least, too. All right. So they don't directly interact with the API. We give them tooling around that within Jenkins and we have an onboarding UI that Amin was showing you the UML for. They mostly interact with GitHub and the code they need to create their resources or their application code. So typically they don't have to see that at all. That's mostly our world. Anything you want to add? Yeah, we try our best to abstract a lot of the more nitty-gritty parts away from our developers as much as possible. So in practice, a developer doesn't even necessarily need to know that we're using cello under a hood for this. The idea here is mainly we give them the tools to allow them to do their deployments and as far as they're aware, they have a Jenkins pipeline. They can see what it's doing. So they can see that, like, oh, this Jenkins pipeline is making API calls to something called cello. How much they know where to care about cello is up to them at the end of the day. That's really all I had to add to that. Any other questions? I've got one. So just making sure I understand that cello is abstracting itself as a layer outside of any of the CDK, CFN, or Terraform. Is that correct? Yeah. So who's in charge of writing? Say for instance, first question, you mentioned it was cloud agnostic. So would I assume that it doesn't matter what environment I'm creating it for? AWS, GCP, Azure, cello is intuitive enough to create whatever environment I'm asking for? So essentially, you're just asking about does it matter which cloud provider you're actually using at the end of the day? Precisely. So our long-term plan is to try and support all these different cloud providers. That being said, we need to build out the adapter layers for those different providers. So right now, the one we have in place is AWS. We want to build out more as we go. But right now, that part is a little bit specific to the cello implementation, if that makes sense. So I can follow up after. That's fine. Okay. Well, thank you guys so much for attending and thank you for the session. We can start. Thank you, everyone. Thank you.

Good evening, I'd like to call Monday, May 18th, 2020 Berlin Select Board meeting to order. With us is Justin Lawrence, Flo Smith, John Quinn. On the computer is Angelina Capron, and with us also is Dana Hadley, town administrator, and Diane Isabel, town treasurer. Additions or changes to the agenda right now? Yes, I'm going to ask to talk about the schedule, talk about the highway superintendent position. Let me just ask those out in Radio Lane. Can you hear us? Wave if you can hear us. Okay. We can hear you well. I don't know if this will help. I know I couldn't hear you guys at all on Wednesday, really. I think it's really neat for that person sitting right in front of him. As much as we all want to be on camera, it might be best if you just sit with it in front of you. Or Brad, but in front of him. Anything else on the changes to the agenda? No, thank you. Public comment? Hearing none. Treasurer's report, Diane? Okay. I'll give each one of you a two-page, and it says Bill is introduced and called Senate House. I've put that on your desk. On the second page, it talks about number two. Establish a grace period for decrease or weight, a penalty or interest on fees imposed. Okay. That was voted by the legislature to understand that Governor Scott has accepted that. So if you want to move the penalty or not charge it or whatever, so I thought I would tell you, as of right now, the tax will do, obviously, on Friday. And right now, the past dues are $253,148. Normally, I always get 15 to 30 people after every quarter that I'll pay. So normally, we're at the $280,000 range, but this is $353,000. And $45,000 of it is businesses that normally pay every single time. Some of them are restaurants and have even an insurance company that didn't pay. They might not be open. So I guess all I'm telling you is that we do have $353,000 worth about standing payments right now. And I'm asking, do you want to waive the penalty or interest? Because I do have people that are calling me and would like to send out pass through bills this week. So if I have to charge penalty, that's fine. I just want to know about direction development. What's the penalties and interest on that $353,000? Well, the penalties and interest, the penalty itself is just to be based on the fourth quarter. And that is based on... Okay. So the past due... Okay, it's probably because we're so far away, Angelina. Diane's giving her report right at the moment. So right now, the fourth quarter is $149,585. Yeah, I don't know if I can help you with it. So I'll try and help keep you abreast where we are. Okay. So the penalty on that would be $11,967 if I was to charge that tomorrow. And then there would be an additional almost $2,000 for $1,200 for interest because it's 1% interest on top of that. So I would still charge interest on the passing portion from before because we're 211,000 and that really has nothing to do with this part. So I'm just asking on the new, how would you let me handle that? Well, I would think that, I mean, these businesses that are current and up to date, I mean, if they're having troubles now, I wouldn't be hesitant about forgiving the penalty. Were you talking about giving or just pushing it back to like July June 15, giving them an extra month? Can you do either? Can you do either or whatever you say? Well, I mean, you gotta remember that these businesses have been in town for a fair number of years and they have really kept our tax rates. Absolutely, yeah. And I don't see as we should be burdening them any more than we absolutely have to. Any other ideas on this? Well, I'm curious if it could be split out or if there's opportunity to say, you know, any of these businesses or, you know, people that have always historically been have a good track record for giving them or pushing it back for a month. But the people may be that it's always late. You know, why would we necessarily be forgiving that? I don't know if you can do that. That's something I'm saying. Can we do it? You know, we can't discriminate. You know, I hear what you're saying and it's not just, you know, it's not my decision but I just hope that I can discriminate. Yeah, but you're still going to be getting, you're still going to be paying interest and penalty on the, what is delinquent now? I mean, for this payment. Well, penalty is only a one-time thing. You don't pay that quarter, you get penalty just for that one quarter alone then it's over and you keep paying the interest. So they're not going to be paying, the ones that haven't paid will not pay additional penalty but just pay additional interest. What were your choices, Diane? You can either wait, put a date. Or you can say no. So in other words, you could pick a date and not charge interest until that time. And penalty, would there be a penalty appropriate with this or did you say that comes only once a year? No, the penalty is every quarter. So for the people that didn't pay this quarter. There would be a penalty. There would be that penalty and then you could decide, you could move it to June 15th or you could not. And the other option was to forgive it entirely. So, what you're saying is if we move it to June 15th, they have a grace period of one month. Correct. If they don't pay it by June 15th, then they get penalty and interest again. Now, at that time, could we decide not to charge the penalty? Yeah, according to everything I've read here. Okay. Sounds like we're pushing it out. Yeah, pushing it out a month and giving people a chance. I mean, the office is out. Maybe there's some circumstances that we don't know about as to why they haven't been able to pay them. Good. So maybe if you pushed it out a month and then come June, you'd know you could come back and update. Yeah. I can ask you again. Do we count on that revenue as part of our revenue protection? No. Okay. We do anticipate the revenue of interest. I would make a motion that we delay. I would make a motion that we postpone collection of penalties and interests until June 15th for the fourth quarter. Second. Any further discussion on this? Hearing none, those in favor? Aye. Motion carries. Any else? No, just like I started telling you cash wise, we're in good shape. I really collected a lot more than I was anticipating. And I, like I said, can pay the school and, you know, we're just, I'm feeling comfortable about it. If I wasn't going to be telling you, hey, you know, this is not good, but I think we're in good shape. And I think that's really good to the news and very good for the, a lot of our residents really made certain that they paid. And I appreciate that. Okay. Thank you very much. Approval of the licenses, permits, vouchers, and applications. Are you ready to do that? The hard copies are there to the hard copies. Well, since we have them looked at, has everybody looked at these? Yeah, Dana, do you have the packet involved? Can I ask for it to be in? I just gave it to you. I didn't, I didn't print all those out. Do you want me to print that out? Well, I'll get the hard copies. The hard copies right here. That'd be great. Yeah. I would wait for the end, Brad, probably. Next time for folks to read you. Yeah. Thank you. Okay. Paying the Andres and. Right. So we have Pam and we have Andres here. And I'm going to move them over here just because I want to. And hopefully they can hear us a little bit. And hopefully we can hear them. So they are reporting. Andres, it's very difficult for, Dana, it's very difficult for Andres and I to hear what's going on. Yeah. I don't know how I can help you. I'm wondering if. I'm trying my best. If folks wanted, would call into the zoom number, we'd be able to hear. Or just get next to the mic. Or just get next to the mic. And we're the other. We're the other. Either way. Yeah. Can you hear us? I can't, but I'm standing right here. We can hear. I can hear you. I can hear you. I've heard Dana before, but I can't hear it. And I can hear the person on the call, but I can't hear it. We can't hear anybody in the room. That's true for me as well. Because we're right here. And because you're yours. And yeah. So should we just postpone this then? That's the other thing. That's what we can dial into. And just. That's what I mean. Just. They're going to call in. Ready for it. One, six, four, six. Five, five, eight, eight, six, five, six. Five, five, seven, six, four, nine. If you need the meeting ID, just yell. What's the meeting number? Eight, seven, one. Four, one, eight, three. Five, three, four. Are you meeting now? There are 700. Can you hear? This is Justin. Can you hear me now? I need to meet you. Yeah. Hello. This is Justin. Can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you. That's good. Can you hear me? Yep. Perfect. Perfect. All right. Thanks for your patience. Anybody else we need to. You can hear you. Tell me, tell me when you're ready. Yeah. Okay. Well, thank you for having us tonight and thank you for figuring out the technology. I'm ham. The Andrea was central Vermont regional planning commission. And we have Andre's trees out here from watershed. We have a lot of. We have a lot of. Consulting associates. And, um, Central Vermont hired. Andre's team on behalf of, uh, Berlin to finalize three stormwater designs. Um, and if you folks may remember, we did a, um, a call a while back on three of the sites. That were at the 60% stage. And we did a call a while back on three stormwater designs. And we did a call a while back on three stormwater designs. Fireplace shop, the Berlin elementary school and the Berlin fire station. And we've gone through the 90% stage and, um, Andre's and his team have made a few modifications, not to the chimney sweep. That one's pretty much the same. Um, but we can go over that again. As well tonight, just to refresh your memories. And, um, I'm going to, um, I'm going to go back from the team at the elementary school, as well as the fire station and needing to, um, adjust things a little bit at both sites just to make the plans work. Um, and I'll let Andre's give you the details on that, but just wanted to bring you up to date where we are and. Let you folks know that this is the final design and, um, we're going to go ahead and, um, I'm going to go ahead and, um, I'm going to go ahead and. And Andre's going to share his screen here, but he and his team are going to, um, finish these up by the end of the month. And then we will be able to, um, have these on file to pursue other funding. Once it's available for implementation. And I can talk more about that. Um, and now I'll, I'll let Andre's talk it over. It looks like he has on his screen, the, um, plans for the elementary school as well as the fire station combined. Um, on one plan sheet. So thanks, Andre's. And I'll let you take it over now. Great. All right. So can you guys hear me? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So, and I assume everybody can see the plan here. So I guess just to give the introduction, um, You know, we were looking to design a stormwater improvement for the school and the fire station basically maximize the benefit in terms of the water quality improvement. And also to maximize benefit towards this future three acre rule requirement, which is going to be a permit requirement in the future, which is going to be required for the school and the fire station basically apply these treatments in the future down the road. So we were trying to maximize the benefit towards those, towards that new rule. And just to kind of walk you through, I think the elements of the design, you know, basically we have the, the Unpaid Parking Lot over here on the eastern side. And so that was, that was a pretty key focus of ours. We were trying to pick up the water, which is draining off of the parking lot. You can see right along the eastern edge of that, we have a swale, which comes and it's basically designed to collect any of the water from the parking lot, bring it into the swale and then the swale then brings water down to a new pipe system. You can see down at the bottom here, I'm not sure if Dana has the hard copy plans. I can also zoom in a little bit too, so you can see essentially right over the bank, we have a new swale and then this black line right here, this is a new pipe system. And then this is going to be what's called a bio retention area. So this is essentially just a planted landscape garden. And we have a planting plan for this, which currently is in draft, but here it is right here. We have a bunch of different types of wetland species planted in this garden. So essentially this thing is designed to look nice, but it's also a place where stormwater can collect and then drain out and eventually drain out to this swale, which runs right here, the access road crosses. So this is feature number one on the property. Furniture number two is also the same exact type of bio retention, but it's over here next to just the north of the fire station. And this is designed to pick up the runoff from the fire station. So from the South parking lot, the water is actually picked up in a new catch basin right here on the corner, and then a new pipe brings it to the north here into this bio retention area. And then there's some new swales right along here, which are designed to pick up the water from the northern half of the parking lot and then drain it into this bio retention area. So that's the second project on the site. And again, it's designed as a landscape feature. Here's the planting plan here. So as it stands right now, there's some red ozure, dogwood, little shrubbery stuff along the edge. Any of these circles you see here are kind of shrub type species. And then where there's orange, where the swales come in, and then along the bottom, that's going to be more of like herbaceous wetland type flowering vegetation, which grows up in there. So designed to look attractive, hopefully, and recognizing that people that are driving in from the school are going to see it. So we definitely wanted to make it look attractive. So those are the, I mean, that's the main point, Pam. Am I missing anything? Do you think I should expand on anything at all, or is that a good plan? I think just maybe you want to mention just a little bit about how the school wants to pave their way. How they're working with Grineer on that and the spaces that we're really not going to lose parking or anything by, you know, from that along the side there. Definitely. Yeah, just to speak to the parking lot piece and what else was I thinking? Yeah, because I think that was one thing that the school district was really trying to coordinate, but, you know, it might, given the timing and funding and all of that, it might not work exactly to plan, but given COVID-19, they may not be able to pave anyway, so I'm not really sure where that's at at this point. Yeah, so Pam's talking about, you know, the school, basically, this is a problem area anyway, and, you know, we understand we've been kind of working with the school as they've tried to advance a project here to pave this lot. And, you know, essentially we worked with them to make sure that their parking needs were met in terms of like up in this area, you can see we actually have some spaces designated and we have, you know, we preserved kind of an open space here in front of this existing access drive, which they needed. We took a very small amount of the edge of the parking lot away on the east side. You can see it says new edge of gravel. There's a little bit of a recess there and we worked with them on that. We didn't, still maintaining, you know, 20 feet from the edge of the parking stall and then, I guess, down here, it's actually a little bit more. It's about 20 feet. So we worked with them on these, you know, adjustments to the parking lot and they, I think ultimately, you know, it's going to provide more structure to the parking lot anyway in terms of when they actually go ahead and pave this and, you know, we've kind of designed this so that they actually also need a stormwater permit for this work. And it's a little confusing, but essentially, even if we were not involved at all, they would have, to do this project, there would have been a need to do a stormwater permit. So essentially, we've designed things so that we should be meeting those requirements for them. So it's kind of like we're kind of stepping in and helping them implement something which would have had to been really done anyway. So I think it's going to work out pretty well. And I think as Pam was saying, it's just more of a question of the timing whether or not it's going to work for them to actually do this this year and I don't know, I don't really have an update on that. I know we just kind of did things as fast as we could and kind of gave it to them so that they could try to get permitted through the state. But I don't know what their ultimate decision was in terms of whether they had time or not to do it. Do you folks have any questions about the whatever changes may have happened since you last saw the designs or any additional comments or questions that you might have? No, I just had trouble hearing you for a second. What it who's waiting on what permit from the state? It was the last last couple of sentences that that you were just speaking about. I just couldn't hear it that well. So I think I can answer that. I think I heard you were you were asking who's waiting on what permit from the state. Is that correct? So they the school district has a need to get an operational stormwater permit and in order to do, you know, their parking improvements, the improvements that they want to do to the school. And also I think the access road as well. And I I haven't been totally kept in the loop on that where they are at. But I've been in communication with Bill Ford about the design, you know, earlier on a few weeks ago. And so I don't I assume that they're still waiting on getting that approval because that is kind of a kind of a lengthy process. And I actually don't know if they've submitted that permit or if it's under review right now. But I assume it's either submitted or under review, but not not approved. I wouldn't imagine. OK, I had a question. You mentioned something about three acre rule. And I some of that I just I can't remember. I didn't get that. Did you have to call to hear you? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I believe you mentioned something about a three acre rule. Yeah, can you explain that? Please because these parcels are under three acres, especially now that they're owned by two separate entities, the school and the fire department, right? And and so this was it was a little bit of a unique one. And and early on in the project, Pam and I and some others on the team, we had some discussion with DC about this one because the fire station leases land. And so it it collectively, if you look at the whole parcel, including the fire station plus the school, there is more than three acres of them of existing and curvious surface. And that is what the trigger is for this future three acre rule. So it doesn't really matter that there's these two entities on this one. So the state kind of made made the made the final decision that, hey, this is going to be one of these three acre sites. And I'll chime in on that. But the good news is that the state is going to provide funding for schools to meet the three acre permit requirements. And so even though they're going to need a stormwater permit to pave it, correct me if I'm wrong, Andres, because I get this wrong every time I try to explain it. But they need that they need the permit for paving their parking lot. But they also need the three acre permit. And this treatment will essentially satisfy both permits. So it's a little confusing as to why do they need a three acre permit when they have to have this stormwater permit also? It's the three acre permit is is for the collective and pervious surfaces on the entire parcel, which is greater than three acres. It's not just for paving that parking lot. So that's why the two permits are needed. But the treatment, both treatments will satisfy the the requirements of the three acre permit collectively. So and because like Andre says, because the fire station land is technically leased, you know, the only piece that's actually owned by the fire station is the building itself where the rest of the property is owned by the school district. So really the the owner of that three acre impervious surfaces, it's kind of a collective owner because it includes the building and the parking lot of the fire station and all the impervious surfaces of the school. So it's a little funky. It's a funky parcel and and there's little, you know, there's all kinds of property ownership all over the state that is like this that the state didn't think about. But they are working with engineers and with the owners to figure out the best scenario to treat the three acres. And we have shared this with the program to make sure that it would meet the requirements. And I think the permit actually came out today. Andres, I think it's the three acre permit. Yeah, I think I saw an announcement. Yeah. No, well, thank you both. Any other questions? No, no other questions from here. Thank you very much, Pam and Andres. Appreciate everything. Thanks for putting up with us. Thank you. Thank you. Bye bye. Surface there. You've got the school building itself, the parking lot and the fire station and its pay of law. That's three acres. Well, on this on this one right here under Berlin Elementary impervious cover managed one point three seven pervious cover managed one point three five for a total drainage area of two point seven two. So close, close, but not over on that one. For the other ones that shows you on the next page where it looks like the chimney sweep spots about seven point nine two total drainage area. Yeah, there's point eight one with the fire department. We'll go around on that chimney sweep page. We don't know that I'd like to treat the site like that. Yeah. I hope we'll go much early. The other discussion on this. Are you done? Road pavement repair, non-sealed beds for Fisher Road, Dan? Yes, we have a Fisher Road has an area where that repair was a few weeks ago, about 70 by 50 to be paved and we did send out a non-sealed bit on it for the paving costs and we did receive one bit. Fifteen thousand nine hundred ten dollars. This is from ST Paving and Waterbury. They estimate using 86 tons at 185 dollars a ton. That bit also includes traffic control and early hours. Yes, all inclusive. Yeah, traffic control. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Road to be closed. Traffic control is not included. How long would it be in close for? I think they're saying that Tim, do you have an idea how long it would be? Probably won't be a whole day. I would say maybe I'll say a day. Just to be. It's got to be prepped. It's got to be dug out. They won't put three inch lift in there. Two, one and a half inch lifts. Who is prepping at highway? Yeah, I told him I could do it. Save some money. So he knew this when he gave this price. So a question will still be traffic control. Well, he's there. They're suggesting that the road be closed. For more than a day. It's just a total. When we go down there to fix what's there now, the gravel, it's just a total nightmare. And there's no way to control it. It's hard to get out of there and have trucks in there. And that stuff loaded to get it out of the way. I mean, we can haul it away with our trucks and haul it up here to the yard, but then then paving. And you're going to have to let it cool enough so that they can put the traffic over onto it. If they was traffic, this way they can just do it. By the time they get it all done, the first side will be cool enough so they can go back and put the top on it. So we would have to know about it far enough in advance so we could get the word out. It gets decided. Yeah. Do we know when they would be able to do it? Don't know if you didn't know for sure. They're in this area, even so, you didn't say for sure. But you don't think it would be like they fall. Something seems to be happening with the Zoom. It bounces us out and back in. Not sure why. It like loses connection. Done a bunch over here to make a way to let some of the new fulfilled stuff. Well, I don't know. That was S.T. Baving? S.T. Yeah, I just saw him. I just finished on Black Road. Grab a driveway. $15,000? $910 if they have 86 tons at $185 a ton. And that doesn't include any other materials? No, it won't be no, it's Tom Brown. So all you need to do is figure down three inches so we get a total of three inches up in there. If you don't go that big, they won't hold up. Right. Right traffic. Yeah, good point. Danny, you're the only person who's on. Yeah, I realized that. Well, Danny, since there's no other minutes. I can hear you. Yeah. You want to go with that one? Is there a motion? What's the board's pleasure? I make a motion to go with S.T. Baving, $15,910. I have an official road job. Second motion. Any further discussion? All those in favor? Aye. Motion carries. The motion is to accept the bid from S.T. Paving of Waterbury to pave a 50 by 70 foot section of Fisher Road that was caused by the road repair a few weeks ago. 86 tons of material at $185 a ton for $15,910. Yes, we did. Yeah. Thank you. That was the only bid date. Yeah, close up now. OK, so we're ready for the thank you. Ready for the next one. Tim Davis, what are you saying? Got a price from Bairons where we got it last year. They come up the corner of the yard. And Jeff Newton's going to truck it for the same price as you did last year, $6 a yard. The pages won't bid, or they won't give you a price because they won't guarantee you that they can give you what you want for the same amount or the quality. And Larry Everson doesn't worth buying because it's not same. We've gone through that two years and had nothing but mud every time that warmed up a little bit. We had to go out and fix mud because it's topsoil and warm and it's same. So with Bairons last year, they went up $0.25, but Jeff's going to hold this price at trucking. So it'll be the total increase in price. How many yards do you usually get? $5,000. How much? $5,000. $5,000 in the area? So you're talking about $12,000. So I'm new to town. Did we put out a bid? Did we put something in the paper? How do we do this in Berlin? I know in Northfield, we put out a paper and gave everyone a chance to bid around. Nobody bids. We used to when we had bids. Nobody bids. And that would be the best way to do it. However, we have in the past three or four years, Tim, I guess, we have not received. People aren't really interested in bidding. Because the pages won't bid because it's open. They don't want to be committed. The story is that his equipment's old. If it breaks, he's not going to be able to get it to us. And then he signed a contract and he's going to be liable and he could get sued. And he doesn't want any part of it. And then we did a vendor in Williamstown. And his product was inferior. And he was higher in here. We had a lot of problems with that product. He was $9 last year, so who knows what it's going to be this year. And he only bids. It only cost us all the more we had to get a call from So it's not seems to get a better product for about a wash. You get better product on a lot better product for the same. We didn't have the mud that we always had. And this is the first year. Last year was the first year that we used it. We just didn't get that swelling every time it warmed up. And when we graded this spring, it didn't, when it rained, it didn't turn to mud. Because you got the same on the road the first time around grading them until you get it mixed into the gravel. But before, we had mud up the in-yang. Is there any reason to buy it now? Or would it delay be potentially smirking? Well, you've got to get delivered before it snow flies. And the problem would probably be that. Tim, I wouldn't be buying it now, not till next. Finding that it's missing here. You're just saying they want to commit that. Because everybody buys from variance. More town, more in Watesfield, Middlesex, at Waterbury, sitting them all paid. So they've got a ton of customers. So you've got to get on the list so that you are going to get it in time before winter. And we did this last year, and it was here. And we were done stockpile on over there before October, or the first part of October we were done. When did they start bringing it in last year? I thought it was later when we talked about it. It was, yeah. I want to say it was October, November. The other two pits in the area don't bid. Was the one in West Berlin? Talkers? No. No, they haven't bid since I met you in seven years. They don't want to deal with it. They don't have to see it. OK. Their sand is nothing but silk, and they know that. It's not road sand. You got to have some stone in it, and their sand is just, theirs is more like wash sand. And Gross is way higher. He's like $10 in some of the yard. Rechecked with them? Oh, yeah. But he didn't even bid last year. And then it's $10 in some of them, and it was $5.50 a yard to get it off here. We used to have three or four that would bid, and now it doesn't have to bid. Well, LePage's, he won't bid, but he doesn't want to bid. What's the other one? McCullis? McCullis. They used to bid, but they don't have to see them now. Either they've run out of their sand in self-dairy and pitting callus, they can't all out of there. They supply the town of East Callus. That's about all they're allowed to all out of there. They've got a limit on what they can take out of that tub. They don't have much material left out there, anyways. Is Baren who Northfield goes through as well? What's up? Is Baren who Northfield goes? They bid last year. They bid last year. And we bought 5,000 yards last year. How much did we use? We probably used all five thousand. Well, I had to buy some this spring. We got both. How much do you think we have stockpiled right now? Maybe 1,000, 1,500. We can, like the winter before, we had it hardly any left over there last year. Because part of the problem is, is the better the sand is, the less yields. Because when you had that other stuff, you put it down. It wasn't sand. It was more topsoil-y. Car is packing on. It turned right to ice. This stuff don't do that. This is what you want to call a real sand. Baren, the other trouble is you don't know what the winter's going to be. No. The winter before, we didn't have any left. We had to buy that year. And we didn't have any left to speak of. Maybe, maybe, we'll have to do the actual. So do they hold their price if we need more in the spring? Oh, yeah. She doesn't change. She only changes her price once a year. First, when we got a new price list here this last month, I guess. So did you just reach out to the male people, or did you just reach out to Baren, or how did that work? Just the only one that's holding it. And he's holding this price. And the policy was, if you hold the price, trucking didn't go out to bed. And to just let him know when he's scheduled everything with her. Threatening the owns it. Right. So you reached out. You sent it out to Baren, and it looked like you're there. Well, that's why I'm here tonight, because I talked with Jeff the other day. And he said that we really needed to find out what's going on so that we could get on the schedule and make sure. And if we pay for in the new fiscal year? It is not like this year. You probably won't haul it until July or August. And in that budget line item, we have enough to cover the increase? Yes. Well, I had almost $12,000 left. And I spent a little bit this spring, because we got low, we used all the time brought in. Because I had low cost loss of truck right now. I've never gone over the same budget over. Not even close to the money left over. Because I don't believe we increased it for the last two years, state-of-the-art. We had $70,000 left on that. And what you're hoping is that you're consistent at 5,000 yards? Oh, yeah. I mean, there's someone over there. Because if you get a bad one there and a lot of ice, you can go through 6,500. But like I said, this thing isn't so much better. You don't use as much. It's got more stone in it than everybody else. It doesn't get, it doesn't ice over. That's the main problem. Is it icing over? Just stuff don't do that. Well, the 825 yard, right? They said 825 yards. 825 yards. It was 775, actually. It went up to 8,000. So it's $70,000. Between truck engine and the truck engine. How much? $70,000. That's how much it is? Between truck and your sand. It's $6 a year in the truck there, right? So how much do we have in that line of them, do you know? Dang. $70,000. Was it $70,000? Yeah. $70,000. He ain't going to stay that way for long. I don't know what he would. I know. I don't know. I burned this stuff. I'm 99 in because like, that's all that's missing in the yard and I'm living in the yard. I guess I know. I'll just shut that computer right out. $70,000. So Tim, we didn't have any other offers on sand other than $70,000, Justin. My other one is gross. Well, gross is over $10. He quoted me a price last year at $9.50 a yard in Bury. And quite a few towns used to buy from him because it's close and local. But right now, the only one I know is he's my employer. Plainfield stopped buying from him. Because if something happens, what happened was his generator burned up on him. So he shut down. Then they were out. They didn't get their sand. So we didn't put this out. I'm just trying to get clarification. We didn't put it out to bed. Nope. We had it for three years now. I thought we had to put the sand itself. We didn't put it out to bed. We didn't put it out to bed. Well, there's always a caveat in there that the board can decide not to. The policy is anything over $5,000 that goes out to bed. That's why I just wanted a clarification on that. But at the same time, if you look at what Tim is saying, you've got to look at quality of the product. Even though you may have a low bid, you're not saving yourself or you're not doing yourself and you favor by buying it. Right. I'm not talking about whether or not, I'm just talking about the actual whether it needs to go to bed or not. I understand that you can say. They can make that decision. But yes, you're right. We normally put that out to bed. So the thing to remember here is you can put it out to bed, but you have somebody who is going, well, I mean, if you look at just the tailgate price, that they're asking at the pits now, you're still going with a fairly low bid on the with the $8. Because Tim is saying gross is $10. He has a good product. And then you've got the other fellow who has an inferior product. Right. And that's it. How much does it cost us to put it out to bed? Just the advertising really at the Times Argus, otherwise it doesn't, you know, that's in hundred bucks for the advertising. Yeah. Okay. I can't help you, Dave. I give up. I'll move you over here. Maybe you'll hear. Chris, better now, Dave. What do we want to do? Well, what's the board's pleasure? If you want to put it out to bed, we need to do it right off. If you want to go with Tim's recommendation, then we just need to let them know. My normal stance is to go out to bed from the highway foreman. It sounds like all the towns in the area are using them. It leads me to believe that there aren't any other towns bidding. There aren't any other companies bidding. There's no competition. Everyone's going with the same company. There's not many pits around it. That's the problem. It's a big run-out. I mean, Colic has a ton of sand there at the bottom of the core, but you can't use it. And Tucker has never been since I've been here. Seven years. And I appreciate hearing that. I was just going to say, I appreciate hearing that it's quality product. And you've got their commitment with them before. I don't even know if she bids, because none of them other towns are bid bid. There's only one other good pet, and that's when Osh is in more so trucking to kill you. Yeah. The trucking is quite a ways to bolt them, because that's where the pit is, but it's all interstate. They're back and forth here pretty quick when they're home. There's a baron's. Here a second? Any further discussion? With that motion, are you willing to go with Newton's for trucking too? Oh, I thought it was a package deal. Yeah. Yeah, okay. No further discussion? All those in favor? Aye. Go ahead. Thank you for a good explanation. Thanks, Tim. It was helpful to have you here. That's why I wanted to come in. I'm leaving. Where are you going? We learned. Okay, next is the acceptance of the Hazard Mitigation Plan. Yes. That has just gotten approved by Emergency Management and is now waiting for you to bless it. We had the draft a few months ago and there were no changes to the draft. What meeting did we get the Hazard Mitigation Plan? I don't remember seeing it. I don't remember up top of my head but I can go look. Well, the only reason I ask is was it before I came out of the board in March? If so, I just want a little time to review it. It could have, because we saw the gentleman come a few times. I can abstain if all of you are comfortable with it. It's not a big deal to me. I just don't want to vote on it. Understandable. I'll move to approve the Hazard Mitigation Plan. And I'll second that. Any further discussion? All those in favor? Aye. I take a hingeline isn't with us. I think she gave up, yeah. Okay. Motion carries. Thank you. Can I ask a question? We're all set with ST Paving. It is still here. What's that? We're all set with ST Paving, right? Because I've got to call him and find out when he's going to be able to come here so I've got equipment here to do what I've got to do. Yeah, we voted on it. Thank you, Tim. There's our estimators down to Jones Brook right now so I'll get it back up here so I can get that help. Thank you, Tim. As he said, if I did the digging and the prep work, that part of it would be fantastic. Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. Have a good day, Tim. Have a good day. Okay, so discussion on proposed budget reductions. I put that on as a placekeeper. You had discussed it a little bit because I think it was the last meeting and didn't know if you wanted to take any further action now or if you wanted to take a wait and see attitudes. Well, I'm curious what, I'm just curious like the actual equipment fuel costs right now. Do you know that there's been a decrease in the fuel spending substantially or what percentage or what? So you're talking about gasoline or diesel? Equipment fuel. Let me have that purple book. I was going to print you guys a I'd send an oil sample out for the grader. And it's done. They emailed it back to me today but I can't get my printer to print. So I'm going to work on that tomorrow and see if I can figure out what's wrong with it. But I've got a thing analyzing that oil in the grader. You didn't follow the email to the still if you want it that way. They won't print. I don't know what's going on over there. And tires. If we're not going to get a grader we're going to have to buy some tires. We're showing metal fabric in the front ones. How are the rear ones? Pretty bad. All you do is spin. Spin, spin, spin. So we're probably not going to purchase a grader. It's 8300 for tires. For tires. Four tires. Six tires. Six of them. And that's state price. That's state price. 8600 for all six. I think it was 8300 for all six. 8300. And then what? What did the sample look like? I don't know. I can't print it. You can't even open it? Well, I figured you could open it. Well, no. It just said click on here to print your results. And I clicked on there and they won't print. That makes sense though. But I'm going to figure it out tomorrow morning. And then I'll get it straightened out. So I've got the okay to get tires because we need them badly. I would say you're going to have to help anyway. Yeah. I mean, the front ones aren't going to get through the summer. Now we're getting some decent weather. We're going to get a lot of grading to do. I was like totally assassinating. You guys do a great job of grading. I love it. My only thought is if the oil comes back because we have major problems so we just get 8300 dollars. Right. Nothing if we did need a new grader, right? Well, yeah, I guess. That's what I'm getting at. That's what I'm getting at. I agree with you. I agree with you. I agree with you. And then if it comes back, will they have any repair options or they'll give us an idea. It's got a lot of hours on it. That's what they're going to tell you. No, if there's problems in the oil, don't bother repairing it. You can repair it but it's going to be so expensive. Right. And you still have a 10-year-old grader? Yeah, 14-year-old grader. Norfield went through this. They rebuilt their motor and then they wish they hadn't. They dumped another almost 30,000 into it after they spent 50 to put a new motor in it. I mean, when they get that piece of equipment is the hardest work piece of equipment we've got. It works hard. Can you answer your question, Justin? In December we were paying $2.38 a gallon for diesel and right now we're between $1.40 to $1.52. Wow. So that is substantial. Yeah, so it could maintain that equipment fuel and that would be better than we anticipated too. Have you found out any more on the culverts or anything, Dana? The culvert for what it was at Richardson Road? Sorry. You said possible negotiation for lower cost culvert replacement for Richardson Road. You probably don't have any additional information on that, do you? No, I don't. Have you heard anything more from the engineer? I have talked to the engineer and that's about what I've heard from him. So I don't have anything as far as that. I have applied for a grant on Richardson Road but I don't have that either. With Cemulus being debated now there's a fairly large chunk for local municipalities, wasn't there? I just saw the bullet points but I'm pretty sure there was a large portion for municipalities. I'm not sure. Was there some strings attached to it though that had to do with the... But it had to do with being caused by the pandemic, wasn't there? Wasn't that part of it? I don't know how... The first one, the CARES Act, yeah. I'm just not sure about the second one. I can check that out. I think we should just continually watch those because they're going to at some point try to get everyone going again and boost some... I do watch those but I haven't seen any really that apply to us yet. Is there any other funds in the state that would be used for something like this? There may be an emergency fund. Shawna did mention something about that one I was talking to her about Lover's Lane Bridge and since Richardson Road is actually more critical and I do believe that Richardson Road could wait another year. I would rather get finished because we've been talking about it a long time. Richardson or Lover's Lane? Richardson. Do you think Richardson could wait another year? I think it could wait another year if we can't get funding or if it's more than what we can afford to pay. And then our engineer doesn't stay up to speed and they don't do any of those seeing more funding or emergency funding or they don't give any advice on that at all I haven't had that success with this engineer in doing it. When we were using Otter Creek they really helped us out. This one is like I certainly can try and work with him and I have explained to him we want this repaired He was the same I mean and there's been a lot of ideas as far as slip lining the culvert that might save us some money or so forth but I think we should be ready to go and I'm hoping that if they slip lined it that we're talking a lot less cost and what to replace it and the hydraulics that's been done so it could be slip lined there's enough capacity to do that. So I guess I just need to be more vigilant about chasing the engineer so that he comes across. The other idea is Karen Horne probably stays fairly up to date on what's coming out from these bills so she may have a good grasp on what's available whether or not there's municipal money. The else on the budget reductions can you keep this agenda item on the board? I'm just holding it as a place so I will do that. Let's see here nothing else on this if not town administrators reporting anything? Yes I have a couple things one as you know we've still had the project going on in the new downtown and the consultant that is working on that and again Brandy is being paid from a grant plus there is money in the FY 21 budget to pay the difference. So she has got a tool online that you can go online and design the town center you want they've been trying to promote this the planning board and Brandy and they're looking for quotes from Berlin officials hopefully positive and so she's asking the select board if they would want to add a quote onto this page that she's working with I don't want to do a planning commission meeting that's the woman you matter probably she was also the same woman that did the zoning I know so shall I make up a quote positive positive if you need help with the positivity flow is available usually at the end of the day she's great with that stuff I trust she'll do a great job I can just run a buyer first I'm going to buy you a flow No me you'll do a fabulous job you can take a together but I just wanted you to know if you saw that online what you said and then I have there were some minutes that I think I sent to the planning commission and public works was in their flow I know that you've been going to the public works forward I sent a thank you letter to Wayne Lamberton because he was very generous and put up shields for Rosemary and Corinne which was very nice tomorrow Tim and his crew are coming and we're moving furniture in Corinne's part of the office so that we can use that window we have actually on our side of the fence if you will Diane has been waiting on customers to take tax payments they don't come in but she's been they've come to her door and she's been dealing with them and anyone that we've had most people we haven't needed to see in person but if we have we have waited on them I don't believe the clerk is open I'm hoping that once we have this window open have you figured out the idea how much it's going to cost to put that shelf in there Tim said that his crew could do it and so I think we'll get through with that we do need to buy a new location for the bulletin board I'm thinking of an outside bulletin board because on the side of the building or something like that that window they're going to make it so it's safe so no one's going to get their hand taken off but it is a heavy double-hunt window of the old-fashioned variety so I think we'll just see how that works out if not maybe buy a newer window like the whole window up needs to block the wood here or you can have a slotting bolt on the side and you don't think there's no problems keeping it down because you can always put a lock on the top you could put I suppose a lock off the top you'll get that done for the 500 oh I would think you know we do have a little supply of masks we have a supply of cleaner the staff has been wanting to buy thermometers I would rather not getting into taking people's temperature I think they're still very hard to find and they are I haven't gone that far but you're probably right you have to get pretty close to someone before you can take the temperature I know all seriousness I think the sign on the door saying you must wear a mask if you have any symptoms we have the sign that you need to put on the door and if someone's sick et cetera et cetera et cetera but I kind of don't think of thermometers necessary plus I can't picture myself I'm not a medical person trying to do it we want to approve the warrants everybody fine with them and also before I'm done several weeks ago you approved reappointing several people to committees I did not send these to you because there's so many of them but we could sign that's all I have for now okay thank you warrants make a motion to approve general fund accounts payable warrant number 20G21 with checks 2199 to 2228 in the amount of $52,002 and 55 cents also payable warrant 20-23 for payroll from April 26, 2020 to May 9, 2020 paid on May 13, 2020 in the amount of $36,388 and 75 cents along with the April journal entries the April budget status report and trial balance and the April reconciled bank statements for general fund sewer commission and the water division and delinquent tax report as of May 14, 2020 I'll second I'll second that Any further discussion? Very well, those in favor? Aye Aye Motion carries Roundtable, Justin Brad, could we talk about the Highway Superintendent position? One idea I had had was to delay how hiring a highway superintendent so I guess first of all, I'm looking for advice whether you think that's a good idea if we should go forward with the applicant and arrange interviews for the applicants that we have I know Brad, you had thought it was not a good idea to delay Well, I just, I mean all it's going to take is one storm you're going to be down a van and roads are going to be neat yada yada I understand the cost savings I mean, that's, yeah But as firemen I can remember we've always had a four-man road crew to maintain the roads except a little later I think we're going to need a whole four-man crew I mean, equipment's a lot better than it was we used to have just six-wheel dump trucks and now we have ten wheels with bigger capacities even so You had some experience before didn't you, before Tim came without a highway superintendent wasn't the town down a person Well, we had, Gary was acting but he had been on the job since he got a high school sure he knew the roads, he knew the equipment he knew the people he was working with so I mean there was no even so we only were down with man for a month or so right, okay, alright it wasn't a long term thing I think he's running a potential issues through the internal situation without having a clear direction and obviously I was going to say, I think that would be an issue you have a very good crew but I think that I don't see like any other crew there's only good as a leader right, and if there's no leader I mean you have to have a point person I personally think we should look forward to the interviews and process and make a decision with that Well, plus the fact that you've got these people who are interested I'm assuming that the ones you've vetted are experienced I've sent you all the ones that I've received and obviously there are very levels of experience but I wanted you to see all of them because there weren't all that many Justin says Jeremy Hansen there's no John Quinn on it just for your awareness that all the other ones are right good help is so hard to find hopefully my secretary could have one so I did have you done any of the background yet? I wanted to talk about how you wanted to do that I can do that this week so that's not an issue there I did have John had asked me to do a scoring sheet which I did one and he has given me his back but if the board would like to do that that would be helpful plus then I would need is the board want to be involved in the interview process the initial interview Dana is asking if the board wants to be involved in the interview process for the highway format I mean if not as a whole board maybe I'd be willing to be is there a liaison to the highway yes there is who would that be? I believe it's that gentleman over there we have a volunteer absolutely see how that works Dana that's why you're a chairman I was just waiting for you to come up with that so would that mean that we would do the initial interview we would make a short list we would bring it to you and see where the experience levels are and then of course you can always talk to them and get a little feel of what kind of a person they are I mean why don't you let Justin and me meet and we'll figure it out and we'll weed their own and then we'll be back we may need to ask for a special meeting do that thank you anything else? thank you very much Dana around table Justin oh we had an ongoing sheet you saved the spot for the budget that sheet did right after we're going to keep going to share with the things we had in limbo can you put that in our face right in the meeting is that like you have to do lists that's my keep your list well it's our but it keeps us focused on what needs to be done anything else? I don't think that's oh yeah just like we I don't know if you guys got the email but we put some temporary decking over that bridge on irishel besides that so I went up there and put some 5H plywood over there that fell tom weller was there josh walker wouldn't help me that's temporary they still want a new bridge and all the vice president from vast was there as well yep so vast did say they were willing to you can get them labor which is huge labor for the equipment or just labor we can get the equipment down there too I mean basically what you're going to need down there is probably an excavator of some size no I don't think you do because they're just going to re-deck the steel that was there how wide is that? it's not wide enough so we reached out to I talked to beaver coro so I'll see coro they actually owned the last week he's got some I-beams as well as house he's supposed to measure up Jamie boldock also said he did when I reached out to him so they came to us with $5,000 I think if we coordinated it that was that was not just material cost that was some labor involved too so I think with the free labor that we can get we'd probably be able to do it about the same where you could actually fit some sort of like tractor or something across there too because that's going to be using it and there's going to be maintenance it would also be able to get equipment across over there there's a washout or something for repairs so I haven't heard back from Phil or Tom but they are they're going as far as I knew they were going to have a meeting and have some discussion there was a section of it where there was I think it's because of the current use maybe that was more pertaining to plaster whatever at that what about have you talked to me with VASA VASA so I think the problem with VASA honestly is that VASA may do it but they don't have any connector so this is just approved for snowmobiles and I think that you might have issues once you get over into this section especially with ATVs side by sides so I didn't talk to VASA at all because right now the way I left it and actually Steve's the trail master for the Northfield Clubs if we could somehow get over to uh over to Tucker's Gravel Pet which we need to meet through Riverton or whoever that calls Lower Lane Bridge we could tie in and be all the way into Wheat Steel so we tie it all the way VASA VASA and well he can do it over there he can do that all side by side too which is pretty amazing so the problem from here would be like I don't know you could probably open up this piece it's probably worth pursuing but those aren't official trails yet he's worth the land or is over there and he's got permission and he's developing that so I think for right now the the way the trail systems are set up we can either tie in over by at least somewhere down in Riverton or we're supposed to go up on that mountain and see because we could come out maybe on a turkey hill yep you know where that is so there's an old road and I actually called John to find out where the town road came from and I took a ride last Saturday I went up on a turkey hill and found out where the old town road comes in and all that so which ties it right up there I just think that if you know the only section is a section of black roads that's holding us up obviously to make that all work you're not going to get a lot of buy-in from VASA even unless that's available for them because that's a big connection piece you want to be careful of those old town roads because a lot of those were thrown out I think it was about 2060 yeah some of our trails wasn't there one that went behind Wheeler's house an old town trail because that's where it used to connect was it would come down behind Wheeler's and then you'd go through Riverton and that's how you cross over there um but I don't know if that's a thrown up trail or what it is but yeah Steve knows all that on his side we just need to figure it out on our side because along those old roads and old right-of-ways that weren't used for anything we just threw them up because it was probably beyond our record I think we just have eight legal trails yeah so that's all I got hello thank you I couldn't hear very well the other night when we had our conference call or our meeting on Wednesday night so I apologize for not being able to be here but when did we decide the town offices were going to open well we're going to open as soon as we get that window open when that's going to be tomorrow I can't speak for the clerk's office yeah I mean the rest of the building at the town clerk is going to stay closed that's her prerogative by law but I want to make sure that we have I want to make sure that we are available and I know we are but the signage on the door at least lets them know how to communicate with us if they are going to come in that they need to wear a mask we have those because that's the only sign I saw on the door that's basically the one I thought I saw that is what on the door now but when we open I have a different sign that talks about in fact I have it on my desk it's the one that is put out by the state as far as if you're sick don't come in so you think tomorrow if they can get that move sure well I mean you can open this part of the building tomorrow no matter what they have it so they can access the town clerk through the window true and we have we are going to get better signage so that people can go around and talk to Diane on the other side so that works out well so I think it's not much of a problem for our side okay and then the only other thing I was going to mention was with such a small road career I agree that we need a foreman the changes that I'm really thinking about are structural to how we do business and that's why I was saying for the FY22 budget a 10% decrease and I think we should start now looking at different options but it's going to take us a while to figure out what the right surgical cuts are in order to I thought you were talking about the FY21 budget you were saying 22 we were originally it was the FY22 really and then we had talked about well we might as well start right now but I'm thinking for next year we really need to plan ahead to figure out here are the cuts that we're going to make because this year's budget has been baked it's been voted on and we should save money wherever we can and cut expenses to practice for the following year where who knows where we're going to be it's going to be a big part of formulating that FY22 budget right I just wanted to kind of explain myself a little further I appreciate that because I didn't realize if we need the road foreman we need the road foreman roads are absolutely great in town compared to some other town certainly appreciative of the work crew I just want to make sure we're thinking about the cuts in the right way when we did this in Northfield it wasn't about okay we're going to cut everything out of our capital capital expenditures that we're just not going to fund and put money away anymore we looked at structural changes that would go on and on and on and slowly come back over time rather than we're taking 5,000 out this year and next year we'll have to put 5,000 in again to make up for it well so often that happens yes right and those are the cuts that I don't want because it doesn't really get us anywhere right I understand I appreciate that well said I have nothing a motion to adjourn it's a move second all in favor

In a world where over 95% of all jobs now have a digital component and where there is a large and growing skill shortage in the ICT sector, we need to get more jobs involved in science, technology, engineering and math and we need to get more girls taking an interest in ICT career. Once Marilyn Monroe was singing that diamonds are the best-grows friend, well, in these days that's not true. ICT skills are gross best-grows friends. I am sure you, if you have them, then the diamonds will follow. It is, indeed, absolutely certain that these are the jobs that are equally paid male and female and that is what we are looking for. Workshop leaders who are teaching the young ladies disjockeying, DJing and digital music composition. Strangely enough, both of these industries today are very digitally driven and there is also a huge shortage of women engaged in these industries so in order to teach girls about ICT to give them real hands-on digital skills also to allow them to break the threshold into these areas and as well there is a follow-on effect that by making music, by creating stories about themselves, about other young women they are also banishing some of the negative stereotypes that we know have a huge impact on our girls and young people. Punchline is that they create content in media that changes the portrayal of girls and women. We present it and we'll take all their stuff and put it on Facebook. Because we don't know anything about music and here we can learn and we can do everything. And not just on YouTube or other things. It shows that girls really need to get more into the ICT sector and we need to get that 50-50 balance going and it's important to expose it to reward girls that are in that sector like the girls we had today. Girls in ICT days are very important because otherwise we just wouldn't know about it and we wouldn't be introduced to all these amazing women and all these role models. You don't need to dress it up. The fact is ICT rocks, women in ICT say they find their careers exciting they find it diverse, they find it challenging and they find it full of opportunities. The industry needs the talent of women and our economy needs our women and female innovation. Digital women are worth more than diamonds. It would be cool if more girls could join in and get more girls. So yeah, we can make a 50-50.

It went down through Khartoum, through the slums and the fields at the side of the Nile. All the folks in the brickworks would get to know me and they'd go, Hello! Crazy English! How are you? We were off and saying you must stop for tea sometime and just have a conversation. It's just a lovely way to get to meet local people. In case you want to take a camera and take pictures of them and show them the pictures I was delighted by that and it was just a very nice thing to do. I think about what I'm running. I usually think about what's ahead and what's coming up. Which way am I going next? How fast am I going? Am I on time? I should shelter behind somebody or try and catch somebody. Whether I'm going as hard as I possibly can. I very rarely daydream. Just focused on the race the whole time. After four years here in New York, my family went back to England. I'm rarely seen my daughters get their education in the English system. But I left you very much alone with a... I was looking to buy a rundown house just for something to do. I ended up in the running club and found that filled all my time. And the rewards were the social group that came with that. As years went by, more and more people would come along and say how did it inspire them to do something? Maybe they weren't doing as much as I was doing. But they started going to the gym. They started walking the stairs instead of using the elevator. They started walking from Penn Station instead of getting the subway that last part of the journey. And they were all trying to do something. Because I wasn't some guy in a magazine that... I was just a colleague of theirs. And I was just a normal guy who was never sick. Didn't seem to get tired. Didn't seem to get stressed out. Although I can assure you I have been in a house this coming Monday. And I'm doing it because several people from my club are going out. The one I'll just go with them and a bit of a road trip and a time out together. I just felt that anything was possible. And I guess it was about 70 miles into the race where I actually started to think that maybe this was all going to go reasonably well. But, you know, you just got to keep running.

NanoEdge AI Studio for Arduino
Find out more information: http://stm32ai.st.com Transcript: When it comes to artificial intelligence, you might think it's a complex subject reserved for massive servers and high-tech labs. But guess what? We've packed a machine learning algorithm into an Arduino board to recognize hand gestures! So, the power of AI is now at your fingertips, quite literally :). At ST we want everyone to be able to release their creativity and we know that running ML on Arduino is a great way to do so. Here we have an example of an application built with NanoEdge AI studio running on the STM32 of an Arduino GIGA R1 to manage the screen and so on, but we have generated such a small model that you can make it run on every microcontrollers. As you can see when I put my hand in front of the Time of Flight the model is classifying my gesture in real time (the inference time is 35us). Then the Arduino GIGA randomly select a gesture among the possible states and if you’re lucky enough you win the game and you get a gift! let's check out how you can do this in a matter minutes. Let’s start by creating a new project and selecting an Arduino board. Allocate the amount of memory that we want to use and select the sensor.Then we can choose anomaly detection, classification and regression depending the application we want to target. Let's choose a classification and upload our dataset... Et voila ! The studio will find the right AI model and train it locally. You don’t need to be an AI expert, to collect massive amounts of data and to train on big GPUs. This autoML approach is definitely the easiest way to develop AI libraries from scratch! Once the benchmark is over and your AI model is ready. You can download the generated library and integrate it to your project. Of course, if you have chosen an Arduino the library is fully compatible with Arduino IDE. This model can run on any STM32, even on the smallest Cortex M0 based or on the famous Arduino Uno. Indeed, here, the AI model reach more than 99% of balanced accuracy with a size of 130Kb of Flash and less than 1Kb of ram ! By the way, you can easily recreate this application at home by clicking the tutorial link here or here or in description depending editor’s mood. Running AI on the edge provides incredible value for a lot of applications such as predictive maintenance on electrical motor or activity recognition in smart watches to list just a few of them. You can create new exciting features without any additional infrastructure cost. This is one use case among millions so I hope this video gave you some idea of exciting application you can create thanks to AI solutions from ST. You can try the studio from today, find you favorite Arduino board and start building you application for free.

At ST, we want everyone to be able to release their creativity and we know that running machine learning on Arduino is a great way to achieve that.

But we have generated such a small model that you can make it run on every microcontroller. As you can see, when I put my hand in front of the time of flight, the model is classifying my gesture in real time. The infamous time is actually 45 microseconds. Then the Arduino Jigar randomly selects a gesture among the possible states and if you're lucky enough, you win the game and you get the gifts.

What's up beauties? I'm BeyondGrenade and you're watching BeyondGrenade today. And today we're going to talk about the very popular Ipsy Glam Bag. For those of you that recognize this pink packaging, you already know how excited you get when this shows up on your doorstep. An Ipsy Glam Bag is a beauty subscription service where they send you new products every single month. So for only $10 a month, you get a cute little makeup bag like so, full of makeup, skin care or hair products. Every month you get a different cute little makeup bag full of either full size or deluxe sample size products. So in this month's bag, this is February's bag. First of all, the actual bag itself is very, very cute, which I will definitely be using. I got some Pacifica Eyeshadow, I got a NYX Lipstick, I got a Face Mask, I got the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer. I have a liner from Makeup Forever, got some skin care, and of course, gotta have that highlight. So in today's video, I'm going to use every single product in my Ipsy Bag, and that is how I got this look. So let's get started. The first item in my Ipsy Glam Bag is the Sand in Sky Brilliant Skin Detoxifying Pink Clay Mask. This will literally draw out any toxins in your skin. It has botanical ingredients to absorb dirt and impurities. It's non-drying, it's a very gentle formula that tightens the appearance of pores, leaving your skin glowing. This was a really comfortable mask to wear because it wasn't too drying so I was still able to move my face. And you'll see that it quickly does dry to make it completely white. After about 15-20 minutes, you're going to rinse it off using cool water. I usually would just use the sink if I take the video. I'm using a wet cloth. Now my skin feels super smooth, so clean, and my pores definitely are minimized. The next skin care item in my Ipsy Bag is the Mad Skin Care Spot-On Targeted Skin Brightening Serum. As you can see, I have many dark spots. You know, I just kept them for the sake of this video, of course, just so I had something to show you guys. So, you know, I got some here, here, there, you know, everywhere. But this serum is packed with vitamin C and botanicals to help brighten up those dark spots and sort out uneven skin. It's also paraben and cruelty-free. So now that my face is clean, I just put on my moisturizer and my primer, and I'm going to be using the Smashbox Studio Skin Foundation today. Now I'm going to grab one of the items that I was very excited to see in my Glam Bag, which is the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye. This is a anti-aging, full coverage, waterproof concealer. I've already used this in the past, and I used it until I literally couldn't use it anymore. I'm talking about I cut it open and scraped out the remainder because this stuff works so well. So as you can see, I have very dark circles. Maybe that foundation helped a little bit, but I need them to be completely gone. So using a flat concealer brush, I'm just going to apply a little bit on here. This is the medium tan color. I like it to be a little bit lighter and brighter than my skin tone underneath my eye as my highlight. Let's do this. Oh, yes. Using a concealer, it's best to make this little triangle shape. Don't just get your actual dark circles, then it'll just be like a little awkward circle underneath your eyes. This will help brighten up everything and make the dark circles look less noticeable. Now, although this is called Bye Bye Under Eye, it's such an amazing concealer. I actually put it in all of my highlight spots. I'm going to put a little bit on my eyelids and a little bit on my T-zone. Now, I'm grabbing my Beauty Blender and it's going to blend this out. I'm setting my under eye using my Laura Mercier Setting Powder. I'm going to set the rest of my face using these Bare Minerals Matte Powder Foundation. Let's just use the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye. Let me go ahead and keep it in the family and get my It Cosmetics Brow Power Pencil and fill in these brows. I'm going to go back into my ipsy bag and take the Pacifica Eyeshadow Palette. This is the Beech Crystal's Natural Mineral Eyeshadow Palette and it's actually infused with coconut. Us curly girls put coconut oil on everything, so now there's coconut in my eyeshadow. This is going to be fun. This palette is also 100% vegan and cruelty free. First, I'm going to create a base on my eyeshadow, just grabbing a light brown color. This is just out of my little Morphe palette that I use all the time. I'm just going to sweep this across here. I'm going to grab this glittery purple one, this last one in the color Mars. I'm going to sweep this over my eyelid. I'm going to grab this deep purple, which is the color Raw Power and I'm going to pop this in the corner. Now, I'm going to grab a flat brush and add some of this gold, which is called faceted. Also inside my ipsy bag, we have a black liner. This is by Makeup Forever, so you do get some legit brands in your bag. This is their Aqua XL Eye Pencil. Ooh, this is ultra creamy, waterproof, long lasting. Ooh, and it glides on really easily. I like it. Now, to add my winged liner, I'm going to be using my NYX Vinyl Liquid Liner. Now, I'm going to add on these eye lower lashes. These are called Curly Queen. Next, I'm going into my NYX Highlight and Contour palette. And I'm going to snatch these cheekbones real quick. The yellow highlight color. Make sure that that liner stays in place. For my blush, I'm using this Mac Raisin color. Mac is another brand that ipsy does sometimes put in your bags. Going back in my ipsy bag, I'm going to grab this highlight. This is the Luna highlighter in the color Luna. This is their baked highlighter, and it's like a gold shimmery color, which is my personal preference when it comes to a highlight. This long lasting formula is supposed to keep me glowing for hours, so I'm going to dab some of that on there. Now, I'm going to grab my lip color. This is the NYX Lip Lingerie in the color Beauty Mark. This definitely goes on so smooth. It feels like you're putting on whipped cream. The Liquid Lingerie line does have a matte finish, and it's infused with vitamin E. And voila! This is my completed face using everything in my ipsy bag. So if you want to see this beautiful pink bag, show up on your doorstep every month, full of new makeup, hair, skincare products. You also could join the ipsy glam bag family. I'll put a link below so you guys could sign up as well. And if you already use ipsy, please leave a comment.

Hi everyone, Joe for jaskiescasebrakes.com coming at you with 2019-2020 Pinini Mosaic Basketball. It's a two box, 24-sello pack break, random team break number nine. Very big thanks to all of these folks who got into the action out there is an early bird spot giveaway. So if you're one of the first 20, David down to Steven, we'll get you in here. Name on top, after 10 times, we'll get an extra spot. The early bird gets the worm. One, two, three, three, there's three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, and tenth and final time. After 10 times, it's Rokyo Elhami. There you go. Congrats to you. The early bird catches the worm. Worms. All right, now let's get the team list going. So that's a new dice roll right here with all the teams in right there. Good luck. Let's roll it and randomize these two lists five times, four and a one to make five. Good luck. One, two, three, four, five. After five times, we've got Steven. Down to David, four and a one, five times for the teams and a one, fifth and final time. After five times, we've got the Atlanta Hawks down to the Raptors. All right, so Steven with the Hawks, Matthew with the Sixers, Ryan with the Rockets, Adam Kelly with the Grizzlies, Siara with the Wizards and the Cavs, TJ Leonard with the Pistons, Ryan Herald with the Sons, Ben you have the Jazz, Kevin with the Magic, Clippers for Andrew, Michael with the Teaw Wolves, Eastwood with the Thunder, Kevin with the Spurs, Adam with the Pacers, Steven with the Hornets, Siara with the Bucks, with the Early Bird spot, the Pelicans for Alhami, you also have the Trailblazers, Kevin with the Knicks last spot, Mojo, Chris with the Nuggets, Siara with the Heat and the Celtics, Ben with the Warriors, Ryan with the Kings, Rokio with the Bulls, Jesse Stein with the Mavs, Siara with my Lakers, Arthur with the Nets and David Bruins with the Toronto Raptors. Alright, let's sort by team, Arthur has Nets up for trade. We'll give it a few minutes right here. There are the two boxes right there. We're gonna pause the video when we come back and we'll see if there's any trades. Then the break, stick around. Alright, welcome back folks. A little bit of trade chatter but in the end no deals were done. It's all good. Let's continue here. Big thanks everybody for getting into the action. Really appreciate it. Let's see what we got out of these. These cellos here. Those mosaic cellos of course feature the pink camo refractor which is exclusive to this group. Logan what's going on? This is madness. This is Sparta. Breaks like this. Most most basketball breaks for 19 for 2019-2020. Veteran commons generally unless specified otherwise won't ship. The only vet commons that do ship, Yannis for the Bucks, LeBron James, Cavs or Lakers edition and of course Cogies if any. I don't think Cogies in this set. Lucadange at second years. Those are the guys that ship. That's the last picture Russell Crowe's been in. I feel like he's been out off the radar for a minute or two. No? Green ones aren't number but of course Willship, Chris Paul Silver's Willship of course. OKC, Eastwood, Damon Lillard, Romeo Lankford Green, Vince Carter Raptors, NBA debut Hachimura Mosaic. These aren't exactly hobby packs. They're these cello packs. It's a retail edition that we're doing a group of them at a time. Yeah there's different parallels in here. Yeah there's a possibility at a Genesis as well in here. That's a good possibility. So yeah it's yeah a ton of different inserts in the hobby versus these retail ones so it's not just hobby wrapped up in a different packaging. Rory what's going on? How are things? And the pink camos which are exclusive to this set here. Let's go into this Rory. It's already working out again and it's are are gyms open in your neck of the woods or have they never been closed or what's what's the deal? Oh gyms reopened a week two weeks ago. What is the what is the the sanitary situation there? How are they how are they keeping things clean? I feel like gyms can be a little dangerous. Nice I was wondering where I need like a pink camo jama rant. There it is. NBA debut going to Adam Kelly and the Gris. Everyone wipes down everything before and that's what they were supposed to do anyway Rory. As good good Jim etiquette. But I've seen a lot of people not do that and and it's not I'm assuming they're just gonna enforce it. Second box. Second box. Opened the cellos. Now let's open the packs themselves. Yeah who's cleaning those gym showers after after the Logan Coliseum of the world. Can't forget Norman Powell. Nice NBA debut jama rant right here. Mosaic. So you got the pink camo and the Mosaic right here Adam Kelly who usually buys the Grizzlies straight up in our breaks. So got lucky got randomized the team this time. Rory can't wait for diamond icons and diamond Kings tomorrow. It's gonna be a diamond day tomorrow. Pretty solid products I feel like from from from year to year and an NBA debut Zion Williamson. No parallel but still pretty nice for Rokio Elhami and the Pelicans. The Donchages of course will go to Jesse and the Mavs. The most second-year Donchages seem to add up LeBron James Cavs Edition Sierra with that one. Kai Bowman Rookie Silver. I don't know traditionally diamond Kings isn't super expensive Justin Larson. We've got we've got pre-orders on our side already jaspyscasebreaks.com. I think a full case random team break is only or a 12 off random break only 40 bucks a random team spot so not crazy. Rory you did a first off the line break with another local shop in your area and you just got owned on the team. So it's not just me good that's good to hear. It'd be crazy if you were just hitting everywhere else and just not with us. I feel bad. Oh and nice Jared Culver Genesis. Tell by the bluish blackish background. It's pretty neat. Good-looking card T Wolves Michael G. Nice these are super short printed. Not too common. LeBron James right there. Nice pink camo LeBron James Lakers. NBA debut Rui Hachimura. Sierra with the Wizards. And a Cavs Edition of LeBron James this time pink camo. That's Sierra again. Heating up on fire. NBA Jam Rules. Heating off Bradley Beal and PJ Washington Jr. at the end for the Hornets for Stephen and there you have it. Now it's a two box 24 Salo Pack random team break. Random team break number nine 2019-2020 mosaic basketball from jaspyscasebreaks.com. I'm Joe and I'll see you next time. Bye bye.

Meet the Man Dedicated to Maintaining the Legendary Hattie’s Hat
Max Genereaux opens up about his mission to preserve old Seattle bars and his journey from dishwasher to owner of Hattie’s Hat. Brought to you by GoDaddy. Check out more inspiring entrepreneur stories at https://bit.ly/GoDaddyIcons. A frequent visitor to the Ballard neighborhood, Max first got a job at the well-known Hattie’s Hat washing dishes and bartending. He found he loved visiting with the locals, asking folks what they wanted to drink. In 2009, Max got word that the current Hattie’s Hat owners were looking to sell the legendary spot. Eager to save one more old Seattle bar, he insisted they sell to him. Today, Max is on a mission to maintain the space’s vibrant history—from the nicest local saloon for loggers and mill workers in 1904, to a more formal restaurant in the 1950s, to finally transforming into the iconic Hattie’s Hat. As the city continues to change, Max is more determined than ever to keep the legacy of Hattie’s Hat alive and maintain the tradition of old Seattle bars.

I get a job doing dishes, which is that room right there. It's about 10 feet from us. I would go from doing brunch dishes to do happy hour bartending. Once I bartended, I really liked it, you know? I really liked just asking people what they wanted to drink. I'm Max Gennaro. I'm the owner of Hattie's Hat. In 1904, it opened as the old home saloon. It was a drinking neighborhood. This was the nicest saloon in the neighborhood. It was bought by a Swedish couple. In 1950, they turned it from a saloon into this same footprint that we're in right now. It was the place to eat. Fancy. By the late 60s, things had changed a little bit. They sold it to the guys who turned it into Hattie's Hat. Hattie's was, of course, just the space was legend, right? It was a neighborhood bar that everyone knows in this neighborhood and in Seattle. I knew that neighborhood. I knew what it was like then, right? I'd been coming to this neighborhood since the 80s to drink, and then I was working in a bar, and that made it really easy to drink. That's when it all started, you know? I was an alcoholic from the get-go. So I had about a nine-year run when it was like things were a lot of control. I mean, I kept it together. I bought two bars. I kept two bars operating. I knew I needed to get sober, and I gave myself a month to finish up loose ends. And so I pretty much went on like an extended sabbatical for about four years. In 2009, the guys who own this place were the guys who I came to work for originally. One of them called me and said, you know what, we're gonna sell Hattie's, and we've got a deal kind of in the works. And I said, don't sell it. Sell it to me. He's like, really? And I'm like, yeah. You know, I'd never run a restaurant. I just ran a rock club and a little neighborhood place. And so I had to start to understand the kitchen better. My first goal is to make happy employees because if the staff is happy, then we're gonna have happy customers. Now that the city has changed as much as it has in the last decade, it's like it's even more special to me because there's all these new bars and there's very few of the old ones left. And so my job is to maintain old Seattle bars. I want them to survive. And so that's kind of like my, I don't know, that's my purpose in life.

Ευχαριστούμε και ευχαριστούμε! Αυτό είναι το στιγμό της μόνος μετά, όταν ο Άλτινος ρελίζει νέους τάμπες και τάσεις και θα παίρνω σήμερα με το καλύτερο μου από την καλύτερη κολλεκτιώση, αυτή είναι η καλύτερη κομμάτι. Τώρα, αυτή δίνει ένα καλύτερο κομμάτι που έχει την καλύτερη κομμάτι, ώστε να μπορείς να κολλωθεί, αν θέλεις με τα καλύτερη κομμάτι, αλλά και να δίνει όλες τα σχέδια και ότι υπάρχει πάντα ένα καλύτερο κομμάτι που δίνει λίγο ιδέες για πώς μπορείς να καταλαβαίνεις ένα καλύτερο κομμάτι. Αυτό το βίντεο είναι part of the blog hope όπως εμείς διεθνάμε το τελευταίο ρελίδι για να παίρνεις την καλύτερη κομμάτι μου, θα βρεις το βίντεο κάτω πίσω, όπου μπορείς να κομμάσεις την καλύτερη κομμάτι και μπορείς να δείξεις πολλούς εμπειρήσεις για όλες οι διαφορές που χρησιμοποιήσαμε όλα τα νέα πρόταξη και πολλούς εμπειρήσεις, λοιπόν, απαραστηθείτε να δείξετε αυτό. Υπάρχει also ένα καλύτερο κομμάτι που θα χρησιμοποιήσω σήμερα για να χρησιμοποιήσαμε και ένα στένσο που βοηθεί να χρησιμοποιήσει το όλο το κομμάτι στην καλύτερη κομμάτι. Θα αρχίσω να ξεκινώσω με την καλύτερη κομμάτι μου, αλλά αν βλέπεις όταν παίρνεις την καλύτερη κομμάτι το μπάντα της καλύτερη κομμάτι είναι αφαγμένη. Να φίλετε εάν είμαι αφαγμένη. That's why I'm going to do the die cutting first. I'm securing the die with low tug tape and I'm going to run it through my die cutting machine. So I'm going to use both the negative and the positive from this die cut so I'm going to place down the negative and then I can easily align the stump inside that space. That way I know that it's going to fall exactly where it should be. Then I'm going to grab the stump with the door of my Mister and I can place the positive inside. Εντάξει. Πρώτα είμαι σκέψης από την ολόκληρη με μπλακό νύχο και τότε για όλοι και κάθε από τα πλούσια, υπάρχουν μόνο δύο λέσεις, που κάνουν πολύ καλύτερο και εύκολο. Είμαι εδώ, είχα να σκέψω αυτό κάποτε φορές για να έρθω μια καλύτερη εμπρασία και τότε θα σκέψω στον πλούσιο. Για το μπλούσιο μου είχα decided to go with a red, an orange and a yellow flower. Για το red I started with crimson and then the second layer is with velvet. Για το orange I went with snap dragon and the second color is marigold. Τώρα δεν έχω always shown that on my videos but I always prep my stamp before I stamp for the first time, especially when it is a solid one. Θα κάνω αυτό για όλες τα πλούσια σε αυτή η σκέψη και usually I work with an eraser or you can just rub it with your finger Τώρα βέβαια να σκέψω με όλα τα πλούσια για τα πλούσια και όλα τα πλούσια που είναι εκεί και όλα τα σκέψη που είχα decided to go and color everything with my alcohol markers. Η καλύτερη εμπρασία για να σκέψω με το σκέψη από αλτινού είναι να έρθει τα ίδια φορές όλες τα σκέψη και όλα τα σκέψη για να μπορώ να μετασχέψω everything perfectly. Για το yellow flower I went with maple yellow and honey drizzle. Τώρα μπορώ να χρησιμοποιήσω με το σκέψη δύο. Θα εγγράψω με το σκέψη πλούσια εδώ και μετασχέψω με το σκέψη με το σκέψη αλλά επειδή το σκέψη όλες τα πλούσια δεν εμπρασιάζει καλύτερα. Υπάρχουν σκέψεις καλύτερα σε αυτή τη σκέψη. Θα θέλω να ακολουθήσω το ίδιο σκέψη. Γιατί όλα τα πλούσια είναι καλύτερα. Αυτό είναι why I'm going to just apply the first layer of color με το σκέψη μου που ήταν το σκέψη και then I can use the little layering stems that are supposed to add the shadow but instead of using my misty I'm just using a small stamping block there I find that more quick and if I don't align something correctly which is the case with this shadow here I can always use the exact same marker which the ink that I'm using here is parot. I can use the parot marker and color in the gap. This is a really fun thing when you have the exact same color in markers and inks so you can combine both. If you notice there is a flower at the top that no other flower is overlapping that. One of my favorite things to do when I'm creating a card is to add dimension and I like the bouquet to look even fuller. That's why I'm stamping and layering that flower one more time so that I can use my scissors and fuzzy cut it. This way I can later on pop it on top of my card. I'm cutting out the flower exactly where that black line is without leaving any border and the trick to make it look as if you did a perfect job while fuzzy cutting is to go all around the edges with a black marker. I have foam tape at the back and then I can place it on top of my bouquet if you want you can align it exactly on top of the other flower or you can offset it which is something that I'm going to do here. I'm just showing you how it's going to look. If you offset it the flower is going to look fuller because you can see the other petals coming through in between the petals at the top. I think this makes a lovely focal point. Now let's work on the background for that I'm going to use this embossing folder that has just been released. It is the Elinem Texture. I'm going to run it through my die cutting machine and you can see the wonderful texture that I got. You can use both front and back and I actually used a vanilla cardstock here and that panel is slightly smaller than the standard card so you can see when I place it on top of my card base I end up having a little white border. I'm going to pop some foam squares at the back of my flower and then stick it on top of my card. You can embellish it a little bit more if you want to add an extra texture I'm using a very thin ribbon here to tie a little bow and you can always use your twine or even your thread. You can even create a little bow out of paper and stick it on top. A little bow is always fun. It makes your card look more special and the way those stems are designed so close to each other make the perfect placement for a bow. Now for my sentiment I went with one phrase from the same stamp set that says of all the flowers I picked you. Instead of stamping the whole thing I just white-imposed the top row that says of all the flowers I picked and then I replaced you with another layer that I had in my stars. Just because I like combining different fonts I think they make the card more interesting. Finally I'm adding some white nouveau drops on the flowers and I'm going to call this card done. I can never have enough flower stamp set and I believe that this bouquet is beautiful and it is perfect for any occasion. Just like always you will find links to everything I used today down below in the description area. Don't forget that there is a giveaway since this is a part of a blog hop make sure to visit my blog and ender. Thank you all so much for visiting today I hope that you had fun and that you got inspired and I'll see you all next time.

Motor parks in Lagos aren't as full as they used to be at this time of the year, bus drivers are facing low patronage from travelers, and the travelers say it's due to a hike in transportation fares. Ngoziqa O'Hurchesi was at one of the parks. Ida Okabeo's celebration is an occasion Muslim faithful look forward to. And this year's celebration is not without some clutches. During this festive period, Muslim faithful travel from one state to another to celebrate with friends and families, but this year, many bus drivers complain of low turnout of travelers. At the Emirate Bus Park at Ijora here in Lagos, the park is virtually empty. These transport companies are patiently waiting for travelers, but to no avail. Here is what this driver has to say. At least first bus could have left, but this year's man, everything seems to be so hard. Passenger are travelling, paying 11, 5, 12, 5, complaining there is no money. But because of you have a family, there is a reward, that's not. You have to go and celebrate this holiday with them. Despite the low turnout of travelers, the ones that are out are determined to enjoy the celebration and still need to travel to visit their loved ones. But they are very displeased about the hike of transportation fare compared to that of last year. Everything costs from Nigeria this year. Last year I travelled 9,000. This year, the current time is 11,500. It's too expensive. Now we are spent like 20,000, go and come. This year is not good. Before, we went to 25,000, then to 30,000. This year is very expensive, but last year is not much like this, but everything has changed. It's too expensive. Last year, it was 4,000. But this year now, this year, it's 6,000. Here at the Emirates Park, Ijora in Lagos State, there is a portion out of passengers travelling for the Salah celebration and this is due to the high cost of transportation fare. As some of these passengers are calling on the federal government to come to their aid concerning the high cost of transportation fare and the economy at large.

Thanks Adam, thanks for one in the studio. Dave, we got some great in-stage cube interviews. Normally we will sit at the desk and do a remote, but since it's a virtual event and a physical event, it's a hybrid event. We've got two amazing Google leaders to talk with us. I had a chance to sit down with Amal, who was gone yesterday during our breaking news segment. They had the big news. We had two great guests, Amal Padkay. He's our first interview. He's the head of Google's telecom industry. Again, he came in, broke into our segment yesterday with breaking news, obviously the relationship with Erickson and the O-Ran Alliance. I had a great chance to chat with him. A wide-ranging conversation for 13 minutes. Enjoy my interview with Amal right now. Welcome to theCUBE's coverage for Mobile World Congress 2021. I'm John Furrier, host of theCUBE. We're here in person as well as remote. It's a hybrid event. We're on the ground at Mobile World Conference Green. All the action here, we're remote with Amal Padkay, who's the managing director of the telecom industry solutions team at Google Cloud, a big leader and driving a lot of the change. Amal, thank you for coming on theCUBE here and the hybrid event for Mobile World Congress. Thank you, John. Thank you, John. Thank you for having me. So hybrid event, which means it's in person. We're on the floor as well as doing remote interviews and people are virtual. This is the new normal. Kind of highlights where we are in this telecom world because last time Mobile World Congress actually had a physical event was winter of 2019. A ton has changed in the industry. Look at the momentum at the edge. Hybrid cloud is now standard. Multi-cloud is being set up as we speak. This is all now the new normal. What is your take? It's pretty active in your industry. Tell us your opinion. Yes, John. I mean, the last two years have been seismic to say the least, right? I mean, in terms of the change that the CSP industries had had to do. You know, John, in the last two years, the importance of a CSP infrastructure has never become so important, right? The infrastructure is paramount. I'm talking to you remotely over a CSP infrastructure right now and everything that we're doing in the last two years, whether it's working or studying or entertaining ourselves, all on that CSP infrastructure. So from that perspective, they are really becoming a critical national global information fabric on which the society is actually depending on. And that we see at Google as well in the sense that we have seen up to 60% increase in demand, John, in the last two years for that infrastructure. And then when I look at the industry itself, unfortunately, all of that huge demand is not translating into revenue, right? Because as an industry, the revenue is still flatlining. In fact, the forecasted revenue for globally for all the industry over the next 12 months is three to 5% negative on revenue, right? So one starts to think, how come there is so much demand over the last two years post pandemic? And that's not translating to revenue. Having said that, the other thing that's happening is this demand is driving significant capex and optics investments in the infrastructure as much as eight to $900 billion over the next decade is going to get spent in this infrastructure from our perspective, which means it's really a perfect storm, John, right? We have massive demand, massive need to invest to meet that demand, yet not translating to revenue. And the crux of all this is customer experience because ultimately all of that translates into not having that kind of radically disruptive or transformational customer experience, right? So that's a backdrop that we find ourselves in the industry. And that really sets a stage for us to look at these challenges in terms of how does the CSP industry as a whole grow top line, radically transform PSTCO at the same time reinventing the customer experience and finding those capital efficiencies. It's almost an impossible problem to solve. Yeah, it's a perfect storm. The waves are kind of coming together to form one big wave. You mentioned capex and optics. That's obviously changing the investments of their post pandemic growth and change in user behavior and expectations. The modern applications are being built on top of the infrastructure that's changing. All of this is being driven by cloud native and that's clear. And you're seeing a lot more open kind of approaches, IT and OT coming together, whatever you want to do. This is just, it's a collision, right? It's a collision of many things and this positive innovation coming out of. So I have to ask you, what are you seeing of the solutions that are showing the most promise for these telco industry leaders? Because they're digitally transforming so they got to refactor their platforms while enabling innovation, which is a key growth for the revenue. Yes. So John, from a solution standpoint, what we actually did first and foremost as Google Cloud was look at ourselves. So just like the transformation we just talked about in the CSP industry, we are seeing Google being transformed over the last two decades or so, right? And it's important to understand that there's a lot Google did over the last two decades that we can actually now externalize all of that innovation, all of that open source, all of that multi-cloud was originally built for all the Google applications that all of us use daily, whether it's YouTube or mail or maps, you know, same infrastructure, same open source, same multi-cloud and we decided to sort of use the same paradigms to build the telecom solutions that I'm going to talk about next, right? So that's important to bear in mind that those assets were there and we wanted to externalize those assets, right? There are really four big solutions that are resonating really well with our CSP partners, John. You know, number one to your point is how can they monetize the edge? All of this happens at the edge, all of this gets converged at the edge. We believe with 5G acting as the brilliant catalyst to really drive this edge deployment. CSPs would be in a very strong position partnering with cloud players like ourselves to drive growth, not just for their offline but also to add value to the actual end enterprises that are seeking to use that edge. Let me give you a couple of examples. We've been working with industries like retail and manufacturing to create edge solutions in a post pandemic world solutions like contactless shopping or visual inspection of an assembly line in a manufacturing plant without the need for having a human there because of the digitization of workforce, which meant these kinds of solutions can actually work well at the edge driven by 5G but of course they can't be done in isolation. So what we do is we partner with CSPs, we bring our set of solutions and we actually launched in December 30 partners that are ready on our Google cloud solutions. And then we partner with the CSPs based on our infrastructure and their infrastructure to ultimately bring this all to life at the end customer, which often tends to be an enterprise whether it's a manufacturing plant or a retail which I... You guys got some great examples there. I love that edge story. I think it's huge. I think it's only gonna get bigger. I got to ask you while I got you here because again, you're in the industry, the managing director, so you have to oversee this whole telecom industry but it's bigger, it's beyond telecom, right? Now telecom is just one other edge network piece of the pie and the sugar computing, as we say. So I got to ask you, one of the big things that Google brings to the table is the developer mojo and open source and scale. Obviously the scale's unprecedented as everyone knows, everyone knows that. But ecosystems are super important and telcos kind of really aren't good at that, right? So the telco ecosystem was, I mean, I'd say okay, but mostly driven by carriers and moving bits from point A to point B. But now you've got a developer mindset, public cloud, developer ecosystem. How is this changing the landscape of the CSPs and how are they changing? How is it changing this cloud service providers ability to execute? Because that's the key in this new world. What's your opinion? Absolutely, John. So there are two things there, two dimensions to look at. One is when we came to market a couple of years ago with Anthos, we recognized exactly what you said, John, which is the world is moving to multi-cloud hybrid cloud. We needed to provide a common platform that the developer community can utilize through microservices and API. And that platform had to, by definition, work not just from Google Cloud, but any cloud. It could work on any public cloud, it can work on CSPs, private cloud and of course it works on Google Cloud. The reason was once you deploy Anthos once as a seamless application development platform, you could put all kinds of developer apps on top. So I just talked about 5G Edge, John, a minute ago. Those apps can sit on Anthos, but at the same time, IT to your point, John, IT apps could also sit on the same Anthos paradigm and network apps. So as networks start becoming cloud native, whether it's RAN, whether it's ORAN, whether it's 5G core, same principle. And that's why we believe when we partner with CSPs, we are saying, hey, you give this Anthos to an ecosystem of community, whether that community is network, whether that community is IT, whether that community is Edge apps, all of those can reside seamlessly on this sort of Anthos fabric, John. Yeah, and that's going to set the table for multi-cloud, which is basically cloud words for multi-vendor, multi-app. Well, I got to ask you all you have here. First of all, thank you for coming on and sharing your insights. It's a really great industry perspective. And obviously Google Cloud has got huge scale, great leadership, and again, the big cloud players are moving in and helping out and enabling a lot of value. I got to ask you, if you don't mind sharing, if someone asked you, hey, Mul, tell me about the impact that public cloud is having on the telco industry. What would you say? What's the answer to that? Because a lot of people are like, okay, public cloud, I get it. I know what it looks like, but now everyone knows it's going hybrid. So everyone asks you, we'll ask you the question. What is public cloud doing for the telecom sector? Yeah, I think it's doing three things, John. And great question, by the way. Number one, we are actually providing unprecedented amount of insights on data that the CSP traditionally already had, but have never looked at it from the angle we have looked at, whether that insights are at a network layer, whether those insights are to personalize customer experiences on the front end systems, or whether those insights are to drive care solutions in contact centers and so on and so forth. So it's a massive uplift of customer experience that we can help on, right? So that's a very important point because we do have a significant amount of leadership, John, at Google Cloud on analytics and data and insights, right? So we offer those to our CSP partners. Number two is really what I talked about, which is helping them build an ecosystem because let's take retail as an example. As a minimum, there are five constituents in that ecosystem, John. There is a CSP, there is Google Cloud, there is an actual retail store, there is a hardware supplier, there is a software developer. All of them, as a minimum, have to work together to build that ecosystem, which is where we give those solutions, right? So that's a second part. And then the third part is, as they move towards cloud native, we are really helping them change their business model to become a DevOps, a cloud native mindset, not just a cloud native network or IT, but a cloud native mindset that creates unparalleled agility and flexibility in how they work as a business. So those are the three things I would say as a response to that question. And also the retail is a great vertical for Google to go in there, given the Amazon fear out there, people want this for certainly low hanging fruit. I think the DevOps piece is gonna be a big winning opportunity to see how the developers get driven into the landscape. I think that's a huge point, Amal. That's really great insight. Final question for you while I got you here. If someone says, hey, what's happened in the industry since 2019? Last time we had Mobile World Congress, they were talking speeds and feeds. Now the world has changed. We're coming out of the pandemic. California is opening up. There's gonna be a physical event. The world's going hybrid, certainly on the event and certainly cloud. What's different in the telecom industry from many, many months ago, over a year and a half ago from 2019? I would say primarily it's the adoption of digital everywhere, which previously there were all these inhibitions and oh, would this work? Would my customer systems become fully digital? Would I be able to offer AR VR experiences? Ah, that's a futuristic thing. And suddenly the pandemic has created this acceleration that says, oh, even post pandemic, half my customers are always going to talk to me via a digital channel only, which means the way they experience us has to be through these new experiences, whether it's AR VR, whether it's some other type of applications. So that has been accelerated, John, and the CSPs have therefore really started to go to the application and to the services, which is why you're seeing less on speeds and feeds because 5G is here, 5G is being deployed. Now how do we monetize 5G? How can we leverage the application? So that's the biggest change. There's down stack and then there's a top of the stack for applications and certainly there's a lot of assets in the telecom landscape, a lot of value, a lot of refactoring going on and new opportunities that are out there. Great, great conversation. Well, thank you. Well, Padka, Managing Director Telecom Industry Solutions. Thanks for coming on theCUBE, appreciate it. Thank you, John. Thank you for having me. Okay, Mobile World Congress here in person and hybrid and remote. I'm John Furrier, host of theCUBE. Thank you for watching. We are here in person at the Cloud City Expo Community Area. Thanks for watching. Okay, that was us. That was me online. Now I'm here in person, as you can see, Dave. That's a lot of fun. I love doing those interviews. We had a chance to grab Google's top people when we could. They're not here. Obviously Amazon, Web Services, Microsoft and Google the three hyperscalers, Dave. Didn't make it out here. They didn't have a booth, but we had a chance to grab them and that was head of the industry marketing and I mean the industry group. So he's like the managing director. He runs the business side. It's an important sector for Google. Amazon was really first with that push into Telco. Thomas Curian last March laid out Google's strategy for Telco. It's a huge sector. They know it. They understand how the cloud can disrupt it and play a massive role there. And Google, of course. They're not going to object to the public cloud narrative that Daniel Royce is pushing. I think they like it. Open source, Android coming to Telco. Who knows what he's looking like. Okay, so the next interview I did was with Salish Shukla. He is the senior vice president. He's the senior leader at Google Cloud for networking. And if you know Google, Dave, Google's networking is really well known in the industry for being really awesome because they power obviously Google search and a variety of other things. They pioneered the concept of a SRE, site reliability engineer, which is now de facto position for DevOps, which is a cloud now persona inside almost every company and certainly a very important position. It's probably the biggest global network, right? Undersea cables. I mean, Microsoft's got a big hyperscale because they've had MSN and a bunch of other stuff, infrastructure globally. But Amazon, Google, and Microsoft all have massive scale and Google, again, is very well engineered. They're total nerds, as we know, I live in Palo Alto, so I can attest that they're very strong. So this next interview is really from a networking perspective because as infrastructure as code gets more prolific and more penetrated, it's going to be programmable. And that's very going to be a key new enabler. So let's hear from Silesh, head of networking at Google, cloud in my interview with him. Welcome to theCUBE's coverage of Mobile World Congress 2021. We are here in person in Barcelona as well as remote, it's a hybrid event. You're going to have the physical space in Barcelona for the first time since 2019 and virtual worlds connecting. I got a great guest here from Google, Shailesh Yukhla, Vice President and General Manager of the networking team, Google Cloud. Shailesh, great to see you. Thank you for coming on theCUBE for this special presentation from Mobile World Congress. I'll see the edge networking, core edge, human devices, all coming together. Thanks for coming on. Thank you so much, John. It's great to see you again and it's always a pleasure talking to theCUBE. And I want to also say hello to everybody from Mobile World Congress. Yeah, and people don't know your background. You've a great history in networking. You've been there, many ways of innovation. You've been part of directly big companies that we're now known, big names are all there. But now we haven't had a Mobile World Congress since 2019. Think about that. Many months, 27 months gone by since the world has changed in Telco. I got to ask you, what is the disruption happening because think about that. Since 2019, a lot's changed in Telco. Cloud of scale has happened. You've got the edge developing, it's IT like now. What's your take, Shailesh, tell us. Yeah, John, as you correctly pointed out, last 18 months have been very difficult and I'll acknowledge that right up front for a number of people around the world, I empathize with that. Now in the telecom and kind of the broader edge world, I would say that the last 18, 24 months have actually been transformative. COVID, it turns out, was a very interesting sort of driver of completely new ways of both living as well as working. As we all have experienced, I don't think that I've had a chance to see you live in 24 months. So what we are seeing is the following. Number one, a number of telecom carriers around the world have started the investment process for 5G and deployment process. And that actually changes the game as you know, due to latency, due to all of the capabilities around incredible bandwidth, much lower latency, as well as much higher enterprise oriented capabilities. So network slicing as an example, quality of service by a traffic type and for a given enterprise. So that's number one. Number two, I would say that the cloud is becoming a lot more kind of mainstream in the world, broader world of telecom. What we are seeing is an incredible amount of partnerships between telecom carriers and cloud providers. So instead of thinking of those two as separate universes, those are starting to come together. So I believe that over a period of time, you will see the notion of kind of cloud native capability for both the IT side of the house, as well as the network side of the house is becoming kind of mainstream, right? And then the third thing is that increasingly it's a lot more about enabling new markets, new applications in the enterprise world, right? So certainly it opens up a new kind of revenue stream for service providers and carriers around the world, but it also does something unique, which is brings together the cloud capabilities, right? Around elasticity, flexibility, intelligence and so on, with the enterprise customer base that most of the cloud providers already have and with the combination of 5G, brings it to the telecom world. And those, I started to call it as kind of the triad, right? The triad of an enterprise, the telecom service provider and the cloud provider, all working together to solve real kind of business problems. And it's totally a great call out there on the pandemic. I think the pandemic has shown us coming out of it now, that cloud scale matters. And you've looked at all the successes between work play and how we've all kind of adjusted the cloud technologies were a big part of that, those solutions that got us through it. Now you got the edge developing with 5G. And I got to ask this question because when we have CUBE interviews with all the leaders of engineering teams, whether it's in the industry or at customers in the enterprise and even in the telcos, the modern application teams have end to end visibility of the workload. You're starting to see more and more of that. You're starting to see more open source in everything, right? So, okay, I buy that. You got an SRE on the team, you got some modern developers, you're shifting left, you got DevSecOps, all good, all cloud. However, you're a networking guy, you know this. Routing packets across multiple networks is difficult. So if you're going to have end to end visibility, you got to have end to end intelligence on the networking. How is that being solved? Because this is a critical discussion here at Mobile World Congress. Okay, I buy cloud native, I buy observability, I buy open source, but I got to have end to end visibility for security and workload management and managing all the data. What's the answer on the network side? Yeah, so that's a great question. And the simple way to think about this is first and foremost, you need kind of global infrastructure, right? So that's a given. And of course, you know, Google, with its kind of global infrastructure and some of the largest networks in the world, we have that present, right? So that's important. Second is to be able to abstract a way that underlying infrastructure and make it available to applications through a set of APIs, right? So I'll give an analogy here. Just as, you know, say 10 years ago, around 10 years ago, Android came into the market from Google in the following way. What it did was that it abstracted away the underlying devices with a simple kind of layer on top of operating system, which exposed APIs northbound so that application developers can write new applications. And that actually unleashed, you know, a ton of kind of creativity, right? Around the world. And that's precisely what we believe is kind of the next step, as you said, on an end-to-end observability basis, right? What if you can do an abstraction away from all of the underlying kind of core infrastructure, provide the right APIs, the right kind of information around observability, around telemetry, instead of making, you know, cloud and the infrastructure, the black box, make it open, make it kind of visible to the applications, bring that to the applications and let the thousand flowers bloom, right? The creativity in each vertical area is so significant because there are independent software vendors, there are systems integrators, there are individual developers. So one of the things that we are doing right now is utilizing open source technologies such as Kubernetes, right? Which is something that Google actually brought into the market and it has become kind of the de facto standard for all of the container and modernization of applications. So by leveraging those open technologies, creating this common control plane, exposing APIs, right? For everything from application development to observability, you suddenly have the ability to solve business problems through a large number of entities in the systems integrator and the ISV and the developer community. So that's the approach that we are taking, John. I love the Android analogy of the subtractional layer because at that time the iPhone was closed, it still is and they got their own little strategy there. Android went the other way. They went open, went open abstraction. Now abstraction layers are good and now I want to get your thoughts on this because anyone in operating systems knows that abstractions are great for innovation. How does that apply to the real world on Telco? Because I get how it could add some programmability in there. I get the control plane piece, putting it into the operator's hands. How do you guys see and how do you guys talk about the Edge service offering? What does it mean for the Telco? Because when I get this right, this is going to be in Telco Cloud developer play. It's going to be a Telco Cloud ecosystem play. It's an opportunity for a new kind of Telco system. How do you see that rolling out in the real world? Great question, John. So the way I look at it, actually even we should take a step back, right? So the confluence of 5G, the kind of cloud capabilities and the Edge is very clear to me that it's going to unleash a significant amount of innovation. We are in early stages, no question, but it's going to drive innovation. So one almost has to start by saying, what exactly is Edge, right? So the way I look at it is that the Edge can be a continuum all the way from kind of an IoT device, an automobile, right? Or an enterprise Edge, like a factory location or a retail store or kind of a bank branch to the Telecom Edge, which is where the service providers have not only their points of presence and central offices, but increasingly a very large amount of intelligent ran sites as well, right? And then the public cloud Edge, right? Where, for example, Google has 25 plus regions around the world, 144 pops, lots of CDN locations. We have a few thousand nodes deployed deep inside service provider networks for caching of content and so on. So if you think about these as different places in the network that you can deploy compute storage and intelligence at, right? And do that in a smart way, right? For example, if you were to run the learning algorithms in the cloud with its flexibility and elasticity and run the inferencing at the edge, very edge at the point of sort of a sale or a point where a consumer is standing, now you suddenly have the ability to create a variety of Edge applications. So going back to then your question, what are we seeing, right? So what we are seeing is depending on the vertical, there are different types of Edge applications, okay? So let's take a few examples and I'll give you some favorite example of mine which is in the sports arena, right? So in the baseball, right? When you are in a stadium and soon there are people sort of starting to be in stadiums, right? And a pitcher is throwing the pitch, right? The trajectory of the ball, the speed of the pitch, where the batter is, you know, what the strike zone is and all of these things, if they can be in a stadium in real time analyzed and presented to the consumer as additional intelligence and additional insight, suddenly it actually creates kind of a immersive experience even though you may be in the stadium looking at the real thing, you are also seeing an immersive experience. And of course at home, you get a completely different experience, right? So the idea is that in sports, in media and entertainment, the power of Edge compute and the power of AI ML, right? Can be utilized to create completely new immersive experiences. Similarly, in a factory or an automotive environment, you have the ability to use AI ML and the power of the Edge and 5G coming together to find where the defects are in a manufacturing environment. So every vertical, what we are finding is there are very specific applications which you can call as kind of killer apps, right? In the Edge world that over time will become prevalent and mainstream and they will drive the innovation, they will drive deployment and they also will drive ultimately kind of the economics of all of this. You're laying out essentially the role of the public cloud and the telco market. I'd love to get your thoughts because a lot of people are saying, oh, the cloud, it's all Edge now. It's still going back to on-premises. This is not the case. I mean, I've been really vocal on this. The public cloud and cloud operations is now the new normal. So developers are there. So I want you to explain real quick the role of the public cloud in the telecom market and the telecom Edge because now they're working together. You've got abstraction. You mentioned that Android-like environment coming. There's going to be an Android-like effect, that abstraction. You've got O-RAN out there creating these connection points for interoperability for radio signals and the transceivers or the edge of the radios. All this is happening. How is Google powering this? What is the role of public cloud in this? Yeah, so let me first talk about generically the role of public cloud. Then I'll talk about Google in particular. So if at the end of the day, the goal here is to create applications in a very simple and efficient manner. So if you look, put that as the goal, then the public cloud brings three fundamental things. Number one is what I would call as elasticity and flexibility. So why is this important? Because as we discussed earlier, Edge is not one place. It's a variety of different locations. If there is a mechanism to create this common control plane and have the ability to have elastic compute, elastic networking, elastic storage and have this deployed in a flexible manner, literally if you think about it like an effortless edge is what we are starting to call it. You can move workload and capability and run it precisely where it makes sense. Like I said earlier, training and learning algorithms in the deep cloud, inferencing at the very edge. So if you can make that decision, then it becomes very powerful. So that's the first point, elasticity and flexibility that the cloud can bring. Second is intelligence. The whole notion of leveraging the power of data and the power of AI and ML is extremely crucial for creation of new services. So that's something that the public cloud brings. And the third is this notion of right once deploy anywhere. This notion of kind of a full stack capability that an open kind of developer ecosystem can be brought in. Like we talked about Kubernetes earlier. So if there's a way in which you can bring in those developer and ISV ecosystem, which is already present in the world of public cloud, that's something that is the third thing that public cloud brings. And Google strategy very simply is to play on all of these, right? Because Google has incredibly rich deployment experience around the world for some of the largest services on the planet, right? With some of the biggest infrastructure in the networking world. Second is we have a very open and flexible approach, right? So open, as you know, we not only leverage kind of the Kubernetes environment, but also there are many other areas, K-native and so on where Google has brought a lot of open kind of capabilities to the broader market. And the third is the enablement of the ecosystem. So last year, we actually announced 200 applications from 30 ISVs in multiple verticals that were now going to be deployed on Google cloud in order to solve specific business pain points, right? And building out that ecosystem, working with telecom service providers, with systems integrators, with equipment players is the way that we believe a Google cloud can make a difference in this world of developing edge applications. We are seeing great traction, John, whether it is in the carrier world, carriers such as Orange, telecom, Italia, TELUS, SK Telecom, Vodafone, these have all publicly announced their work with Google cloud, leveraging the power of data, analytics, AIML and our very flexible infrastructure. And then a variety of kind of partners and OEM players in the industry, as an example, Nokia, right? Amdox, Netcracker and many others. So we are really excited at the traction that we are getting. And we believe that public cloud is going to be a key part of the evolution of the telecom industry. Charlotte, it's great to have you on. Charlotte Shuka's VP and GM of networking at Google cloud. And I would just add to that final point there that open and this Android like open environment is going to create a thousand flowers to bloom. Those are new applications, new modern applications, new companies, a new ecosystem in the telco cloud. So congratulations. Thanks for coming on and sharing your insights, Google cloud. You guys are about the data and being open. Thanks for coming on. Thank you, John. Great to talk to you. Okay. So it keeps coverage of Mobile World Congress. Google cloud featured interview here on theCUBE, really a big part of the public cloud is going to be a big driver. Call it public cloud, hybrid cloud, whatever you want to call it's the cloud, cloud and edge with 5G, making a big difference and changing the landscape and providing innovation for the telco space. I'm John Furrier, your Cube host. Thanks for watching. Okay, Dave, that's the Google support. They are obviously singing the same song as Daniel Royston, Every Vertical. Two great interviews, John, really nice job. We can see the tech, the strategy is becoming more clear. You know, one of the big four. Yeah. I just love these guys are so smart. Every vertical is going to be impacted by elastic infrastructure, AI machine learning and this new code deployment right once deploy anywhere. That's the Cube. We'd love being here to cloud show now, Mobile World Congress back to the studio for more awesome cloud city content.

You can't have too much of a good thing, they say, or maybe it's the opposite. I don't really know. It doesn't matter because the movies I'm talking about today stopped having good things after the first movie or maybe they made it to and before it became a total disaster. Today, I want to talk about the top five dumbest, worst, most awful, a little bit redundant movie franchises still operating today, still thriving in some cases. I don't need to waste any time. Let's begin. If you are subscribed to this channel, you might be scratching your head going, didn't Adam just cover this except for he did 10 of them the other day on a live stream? Well, yeah. But if you watched the live stream, you know that that was a complete disaster. It was an absolute shit show because for some reason my internet provider decided on a whim, hey, let's start messing with Adam's life. That live stream is still up right now. You can listen to it. Please don't watch it. Please, it's unwatchable really anyways. So you can listen and I think the audio is okay. I haven't I refuse to go back and listen. So what I thought I would do is instead of top 10, I would do five and I would go into a little bit more details about not only where they went wrong, but steps they could take to fix or maybe reboot or whatever. We're not going to walk away. That's not an option. These franchises are too popular. They make too much money. The studios will not walk away. So we are operating under the assumption that these will go on until we all die and they will live far past us. With that in mind, let's go to the number five spot, which is Terminator. James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger made two movies to be very proud of. Terminator 2 especially, still considered one of the greatest action movies of all time. T1, and I don't think anybody calls it that except for me just this one time only. That's considered a really good horror film. And it's right to be considered a really good one because it is. A single machine hell-bent on stalking and killing its prey, sent from the future to fix the past. At least fix it in the game for the machine so that they can sustain their life and go on living prosperously. What I love about these movies is how gritty and grounded they are. But things quickly turn into hell in a handbasket as we get to T3. It's got a supermodel villain. It's not scary or threatening. The characters have all been replaced. Sarah Connor's killed off screen unceremoniously. The Terminator is back in a third version of itself. It's so bad. It's just so dumb. And you can like this movie on a superficial comical standpoint, but to put it up on the same pedestal as T1 and 2 is asinine. And I don't think anybody actually does that to be fair. I will also say this. There are Terminator movies that come after 1 and 2 that are at least fun to watch. They're engaging. They're silly. They're dumb. And it's entertaining popcorn flick, humor and action. And that's okay. That's fine. No judgment day if you like those. I don't mind dark fate. I've gotten on record. I know I'm in the very small minority here that likes that film, but I don't love it. And I certainly don't put it on the same level as Terminator 1 and 2. It's just that after so many bad Terminator movies, by the time Dark Fate rolled around, I have no expectations at all outside of give me some cool action and I don't care about the story because the story is shit. It's a soft reboot. It does a disservice to original characters, much like Terminator 3 did. Much like Terminator Salvation did with its dumbass plot that makes no sense. Much like Terminator Genesis. There's so many of them and they're all kind of dumb at the end of the day after 1 and 2. And so what I would like to see the studio do, since we can't walk away, of course, Dark Fate was a financial and critical, I don't know if it's a critical bomb. I think it did okay with critics, but it was definitely a financial bomb. It might have been a critical one too. Don't quote me. But what we need to do is walk away from this and we need to go back to the basics. Let's do what Prey did for the Predator franchise. Let's build up a singular character again. And yeah, I guess it would be kind of a soft reboot, wouldn't it? But I don't want it to be called Terminator. I don't want it to have anything to do with the Terminator name. Call it the machines. Call it, you know, whatever. Who gives a crap? As long as it doesn't have Terminator in the title. But people, audiences will know that this is somehow connected to that storyline. Much like Prey did and I think it worked for many. It definitely worked for me. I love that movie. It's its own thing, but it definitely takes a lot of inspiration from the original. But it goes a different route. It goes a different tone with it. That's what I'd like to see. All right, let's talk about number four on the list, which is... Transformers. There are five Michael Bay Transformers movies. There is one prequel movie called Bumblebee that I think later was retconned to not actually be a prequel to the Michael Bay movies, but a prequel to another timeline which features the rise of the beasts or whatever this new-ish Transformers film was that came out last year. These are very, very, very, very dumb films. Watchable, yeah. Of course, if you like high octane action explosions, some fun one-liners, little quips, some comedy. Michael Bay is pretty good at all that. Especially in the first one. I really like the first Transformers film. I liked the vantage point of taking it from Sam Witwicky's point of view. Sam's looking up. He sees all this chaos. I don't know what's happening. I don't know what's... I don't even think the animators know what's happening. They're just putting a lot of CG together. But it looks good. You look at new modern shit. It doesn't look near as good as Transformers 1 does. It's a testament to how much the animation studios cared, how much time they had to work on their craft. Now it's just churn and burn, baby. They don't got time. They got 13 more projects in the pipeline. But Transformers 1 gets it right. It does a good job blending these new characters with the Transformers that we love. And sure, yeah, a lot of them kind of look the same-ish. Not a lot of differentiating between Star Scream and Megatron. A lot of just, you know, kind of sharp edges and metals. But voice acting was on point. I don't know. I got a soft spot for Transformers 1. The sequels get so stupid though. Every single one gets worse. And by the time four rolls around, Shia LaBeouf's gone. Megan Fox has been gone since the third one. And now we got fucking Mark Wahlberg? Who wanted Mark Wahlberg? Oh, looks like you found the Transformer. Mark Wahlberg. It's lame. It's so lame. Bumblebee was fine. It was a nice little charming quaint picture, taking things back down to basics. But this new one, again, it just goes for broke already. It doesn't kind of ratchet up calmly. It goes way too heavy. The Planet Eating Transformer Unicron is already in the mix. He's the big bad guy. I think they're going for a Thanos thing here where he's the threat, but he doesn't really fight them. He's just the guy that's like, oh, I'll be back for you, Transformers, later. And then they introduce the GI Joes at the end of the picture. What is even going on anymore, Hasbro? What are you doing? What I'd like to see from Transformers is, I think, something they're already doing. There's a new animated Transformers film coming out this year. A lot of big names attached to Voice. I haven't seen a single ounce of animation on this thing, no trailers, no teaser, but I'm guessing. I'm hoping it's going to be done in the same way into The Spider-Verse was done, or the new Ninja Turtles movie, or Puss in Boots 2. I hope it has a cool, stylish look to it. And I really hope they go for broke on what made Transformers so fun. The cool action, the great characters, the fun voices, the cool cars and different vehicles, and just go all in on it. I think it'll be an easy sell for people. And then from there, the sky's the limit. Then we can slowly ratchet things up for the next couple films. As for the live action movies, I just, I don't care at all. I think that they tried something with Bumblebee, but instead of going with that, they led right into the Michael Bay movie at the end. Sam's car, Bumblebee's in the dealership parking lot where Sam's going to buy it and take off. And then they decided last second, like, oh shit, we don't want to do this. There's more money to be made. Let's spin off into another thing. Let's get the Beast Wars stuff going on. It's not interesting. And I don't know if they're going to continue with that, I kind of hope they don't, but I think I have a feeling they're going to do the G.I. Joe thing and bring it home. So let's focus on the animated one. That's where my interest lies. There are somehow six mainline Resident Evil films with Mila Jovovich or Husband Directs, I think all of them. These are schlocky at best, horrifically terrible at worst. The first one's fine. I wouldn't even say the first one's top level. Like, it's not this great, amazing movie, much like Fast and the Furious. It does enough well for this base of people that really like that kind of stuff. But for everyone else, I think it was a head scratching film that sometimes work and occasionally goes into a really silly, weird narrative level, which the games all do as well. The story of the games is complete nonsense with the Umbrella Company and Ada Wong is in the mix as a spy and Leon and all these characters come and go and I can't keep heads or tails of it. And I don't think the movies do either. So they just kind of take the things that they really like from the games and smash it together. I gave up on this franchise very early. I think I maybe made it to three. But two was so terribly done, I thought. Just it felt like the budget wasn't there for what they were trying to do. And then they continue to keep pretending they're better than they are by pulling things from other film franchises that are way cooler, like The Matrix. A lot of the later ones do really feel like they're making her Trinity and she's doing this horrible Walmart version of Bullet Time and there's just no budget there for it or they're really utilizing it in the worst way possible. These movies are beyond fucking stupid and they continue to exist. Now I think the Mila Jovovich films are done. There was a final chapter. But then we are continuing on with the Netflix Resident Evil and there's the Raccoon City movie that came out a year so back that was atrociously bad. They will not let this thing die. Because at the end of the day, zombies don't. How do I fix this? I say with this when you start over and I think they've attempted to several times but they haven't got it right yet and because there's money to be made, let's do it again. Start over. Maybe take it from one of the later games. Go into the redneck one or Resident Evil Village and go with the vampire chicks. The big gal vampire from the village. She was very popular online. A lot of search results for her hit I saw. So let's go with that. That's easy money. Go with the vampire sisters. Carry the werewolf stuff over. Really go into the scary, dark, disturbed creature feature route instead of just generic zombies. Zombies are played out. So let's play with something else. The number two on my list pains me to say I'm wearing the t-shirt. Steven Spielberg, huge super fan here but Jurassic Park really, really has gone through the ringer over the years. Now, I have a soft spot for dinosaurs. I think a lot of people do. They're cool. They're just cool and we haven't seen them in person. You know, we only have the bones. We only have the sticks and the debris and whatever is left of these things. And since for some reason, Jurassic Park has a monopoly on dinosaurs. These are the films they keep getting made. Outside of 65 that came out a year or so back, there's just not a lot of dinosaur material often released. So we get what we get. And unfortunately what we get are really, really stupid movies in this Jurassic Park universe. The first movie is one of my favorite films of all time. Lost World has its fans. I'm not one of them. Is it watchable to a degree? Yes. But it also features some of the worst things the franchise has to offer such as gymnast girl kicking a raptor out a window like a Charlie Chaplin scene. It's got super unlikable characters with Vince Vaughn and Julianne Moore. But then on the other side, it has a phenomenal RV section where that thing is going out the side of the cliff. It's got the raptors going through the weeds. There's some good stuff here. Unfortunately, it overstays its welcome. It has a very cartoonish final act. And then we go into Jurassic Park 3 that's like 25 minutes long. Shoe string budget. They blew all of it on a different version of a film than ever got to see the light of day. Lots of problems with the animatronics. Lots of problems with the script and the directors. And what we end up getting is honestly, I think, an hour and a half movie. It's just in and out. It's a cup of coffee. It's a watchable digestible trash that I don't need to go back and ever see again. But on occasion, I feel like, you know what? What's a really schlocky movie that's in and out pretty quick? JP3. Let's put it on. Now we get to Jurassic World. It does go the soft reboot route. I think it does more right than it does wrong. Characters aren't near as likable though. Owen by Chris Pratt, who's usually pretty fun, loving, charming. He's just NPC levels of territory here. Just your stock, you know, like holding the hands out. Super strong, cool dude that has nothing to bring to the table. And that's very apparent when the second and third Jurassic World entries kick in and his character kind of changes. Claire's character completely changes. They just have nothing to go on with these people. And so they introduce more and more insane bullshit like a clone girl. And the animals get freed at the end. And there's this whole Kakamemi scheme where the rich people are selling off the dinosaurs much like they did in the Lost World because nothing's original anymore. But they are trained weapons. And one of them is built to kill but in order to command it you have to point a fucking gun with a laser into other objects for its attack. Just shoot them! You have the gun! Just shoot them! Listen, I bitched up a storm about these movies. There's plenty of rants and stuff on Jurassic World following franchise and the following one that came after. I don't even remember the name of it. Dominion? Dominican Republic? I don't remember what it's called. It's terrible. It's about Locusts. Giant Locusts destroying the crop field. It's about Owen now able to do the talk to the hand thing to every dinosaur it comes across. It's about baby blue getting captured. So blue's pissed. It's about 14 different story lines that are all uninteresting and really go nowhere new or fresh or fun or engaging. It's not scary. It looks fake as crap. It kind of turns into a James Bond movie for a while. I hate this movie. I hate it. And now we have a seventh one in the works. It's never going to end because people love dinosaurs and they're willing to sit through the garbage just to see some cool T-Rex action. So we have another Jurassic World movie on the table. Who knows what this one's going to be called? Jurassic Universe? Jurassic Galaxy? We need to go backwards. We need to go backwards to Galaxy. Then go to Universe? I don't know. I don't know. What I would say for this franchise since again we have to keep it going. Get rid of all of these people. Get rid of Owen. Get rid of Sadler. Get rid of all the originals. Malcolm. We keep dragging their corpses out. But it was a one and done with these people. First movie was magic. Lightning in a bottle. All that crap. Get them out of here. We start small again. We got to go smaller. Not larger. It never works when you go so big that no one can connect to anything. Make it a horror film. Set it in like a suburban area where it's just a single dinosaur or maybe it's just a small pack of dinosaurs have broken out of this mysterious park that's being worked on or the park has been closed down. Everything's shut down and there's only just a small faction of dinosaurs left that they can't contain. Or I don't know. It's so far gone. I don't actually know how you fix this franchise. They already soft rebooted. So you can't really do that again. And they've already gotten so large that you can't even really pull back. It's just too far gone. So you have to find a way to just get like one or two people or an individual group of people into a scenario where they just have to get out against all odds. Make it a survival horror film. Okay. Maybe it's just like a 72 hours type of situation where a dude stuck in some rocks and there's a T-Rex stalking him in the background. You know what? Like it's a revenant type film but with dinosaurs. That would be cool. That would get me back into the theaters. But what am I saying? I'm going to be there. It's dinosaurs. Last and certainly least is the number one franchise on my list that continues to thrive fast and the furious. Everybody knows we are 10 movies in. 10. 11 if you count Hobbes and Shaw. 12 if you consider the fact that they at least have one more planned if not seven. These movies will never die as long as Vin Diesel has a beating heart. These movies are so embarrassing that Vin Diesel is one of the highest paid actors in a Hollywood. This guy has the easiest set of jobs ever. He records I am grouped and that makes him tons of residuals. What a treat. Then he just has to go hang out with his buddies for a few months in some lavish area or stand in front of a green screen or at this point he's probably all AI. The last couple movies I don't think I see any emotion come from this guy. He elicits nothing other than time to ride, family. You messed with the wrong family. Brother? Oh yeah, that's right. I have a brother. Eight fucking movies in or nine movies in that we never mentioned before in an entire franchise that's built upon family. These movies are never about family. Just saying something doesn't make it true. It's the opposite of family. These people are garbage. They're constantly putting each other in harm's way. Going into the backyard occasionally and drinking a corona with some rap music does not make you a good group of individuals to watch. There is just no chemistry or there's just nothing to these. They really are like two and a half hour explosion gasms smashed all over the screen. The plots are impractical. They're insane. They're over the top. And all that stuff can be fine. If you're at least following someone that has presence, that has that star power, and Vin Diesel just has never had that for me. But obviously I don't know shit because these movies continue to do huge numbers. And I know they said the last one was a little disappointing from a financial standpoint. Well, yeah, when it costs like a billion to make, obviously it's not going to make as much. These things are so overblown with the budgets. Now let's pull back. How would I fix fast and the furious? Well, I personally don't like any of them. Not even the first one is my cup of tea. I'm not really into muscle cars. I've already seen point break. So the plots are already recycled from that. This does nothing unique or different. Paul Walker is the only character that can kind of act in these things. Vin Diesel just never did anything for me. What I would do as someone that doesn't care in the slightest, but thinking about people that actually like these movies originally, is I would get back to street racing. I would just go back to street racing. I don't even know if I'd put Vin Diesel in them. Or what I'm thinking is you find a way to pass the torch. Diesel's no spring chicken, okay? I really don't think at the end of the day, that many car enthusiasts or fans of this franchise really care that much about Dominic Toretto. I think that they just care about the fast cars, the good looking women, and everybody's aging up. So let's get some young blood in here. Let's take it back to the streets again. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe they just want to keep seeing Vin Diesel jump off CG for the rest of his life. Maybe that's all they want. That's all they ever wanted. I don't know. But I do know this. These five film franchises are completely out of control. They're dumb as a fucking box of rocks. And I want to see some changes, damn it. Let me hear from you, though. Do you agree with me? Or do you think, Adam, there's a reason these are number one for a reason. People love this stuff. They can't get enough of it. Let me know in the comments below. Please like the video if you enjoyed this. Got something out of it. Subscribe as I post tons of movie content each and every week. Would love to have you stick around. And if you want to see me in person, I am coming out of the cave for the first time ever. I will be at Orlando, Florida in just a couple days after this goes out under the internets. I'm going to be at Megacon. I'll be there Friday, Saturday, and Sunday doing three different panels with some fun movie critics. It would be awesome if you could attend. There's still tickets available, at least for the day-to-days. I think the super pack or whatever sold out. But there's still dailies you can get. I'd love to talk movies. I'd love to hang out, grab a bite to eat, do whatever. I'm around. I'm ready to go. Alrighty. Hopefully I see you next time. Take care.

Alright, so this video is just going to be a little recap. I got a comment, actually a couple comments, on a recent video about how this command I showed works. And I thought I could just take it piece by piece in this video, and you guys can let me know if this is helpful. So I, I think I'll work backwards. So the last command in here is calling tidyViewer. Let me see if I've got a CSV. Alright, I do have a CSV. So with tidyViewer, what you can do, well there's a couple ways we can do this. We can either cat a CSV file, so like Star Wars, for example. Normally if you cat, you just kind of get everything dumped onto the screen. I'm going to decrease the font a little. There we go. So that's what you get with cat. It's, it's a little bit messy, so tidyViewer is a way to just kind of look at the data without having to wade through all of that mess. So I could cat Star Wars to, to tidyViewer. Usually more, usually the syntax is more to use tidyViewer and then just say the CSV file and you get some output. Now this output normally is all right with my standard font. But there is a little bit of overflow just because my font is huge and the default in tidyViewer is to show 25 columns. I can change that. I can say, hey, tidyViewer, the number of columns, sorry, the number of rows I want you to print is 10. And I get something a little bit nicer. Again, it mostly does handle the overflow well, but the font is a little bit big. I'm going to go just a little bit smaller just so we get something a little nicer. Still going to look squished though, but this is the idea. So tidyViewer is just taking our CSV. I'm making it look nice. So as long as there's a CSV, tidyViewer can make it look nice. So I'm going to try also with cat really quick. If I remember the syntax here, cat to tidyViewer. And again, we'll limit to, I'll just do limit to five. That's what it looks like. So that's the tidyViewer part. And now going backwards, I am using the duck db command. And you can't really see what's happening with duck db. If I just type duck db, it'll put me into this run line mode. And I can run different commands in duck db. But this isn't really being utilized so much. What's happening is that duck db is being pushed a SQL file. So as long as you have a SQL file that duck db can understand, it will use it, and it'll interact with it. So let me think of something I can do here. So let me take New York flights. Let's do, well, let's see, let's actually go to duck db mode. Duck db and then select star from read CSV auto. And we're going to read nycflights.csv. And we're also going to say that header equals true. I think it's with a capital T. Sometimes I can't remember this in text too well. Oh, and semicolon, boom. All right, so that is reading all of the flights data. That is a little too much, so I'm just gonna cancel that. Let's do, let me decrease the font again. I'm sorry if this is getting hard to read, but I want to be able to fit lots of this command on one line. So select star from read CSV auto header true, and let's just do like a limit 10. Still a lot of data, kind of a mess. And that's why we push it to, to tidy viewer is that this is a CSV, it's a little bit hard to read, but we are able to run SQL. Maybe if I knew a column name, I can select a column name just to make it a little bit cleaner. Let me exit out of this again, and see I'm gonna pass the flights data to tidy viewer. All right, so maybe I'll just select this depth time, departure time, just to make it clear what's going on. So instead of select star, select depth time. Boom, there we go. So just selecting one of the columns from New York flights and limiting it to just a few observations here. Let's see, maybe I'll just, for fun, select year month, day, depth time, just to drive the point home some more. Year, month, day, there we go, that's a CSV. So like I was saying, we aren't actually pushing, like we aren't entering this mode inductee B. We're pushing a SQL file. So I'm gonna, can I copy this easily? I don't have a great way to copy this. Gonna get out of DuckDB mode and write a little NYC flights. Let's call this Duck, NYC flights. So this SQL is going to be valid DuckDB SQL, and there are lots of different SQL dialects. So for example, I don't, to my knowledge, I don't think SQLite comes with a read CSV auto command. You'd have to use an additional module, but DuckDB comes with that included already. All right, so I'm gonna go into Envim and start making this Duck NYC flights SQL, a lot like what we were just doing on the command line. So select star, well, let's do select year, month, day, depth time, whoop, depth time from, gonna make this look a little bit nicer, from let's do a read CSV auto here, NYC flights.csv, and there is a header. And limit 10, you guys get to see all my typos and make sure that semicolon's in there. So let's cat that file. And that's valid, I think that's valid, DuckDB SQL. All right, so how do we push this to DuckDB? Can we just do cat DuckDB flights and then use the DuckDB executable? Yes, that works. So we can push SQL to DuckDB and it will execute that SQL file. And then we can pipe that to TidyViewer and get a nicely formatted file. Now, it's not making a big difference here just because there isn't that many columns we don't have to worry about overflow logic and the columns are simple integers except the last column which is a float, but it's still nice. It's nice to be able to push things to TidyViewer in the end. So we can take a SQL file, push it to DuckDB and that SQL file reads our CSV and is able to do any kind of SQL that DuckDB allows. Now what I was showing at the video wasn't just stopping there though. PRQL is a completely different syntax from DuckDB and that's what's kind of cool. I'm gonna look up PRQL right now. So in PRQL there's kind of this more terse syntax but I really like it. I think this is a really clean grammar. Lots of SQL statements will end with a from statement or the from statement is in the middle somewhere. But usually when you're working with data manipulation libraries in R or Python you are reading first and then doing your manipulations. So it's almost natural. It feels natural to want to read or grab the data first. So that's one thing that you see in PRQL is that you're getting the data first and then you're doing different things with it. So filter is like where in SQL. And if you're used to tidyverse this is literally like filter in the tidyverse. So some Boolean expression is given to filter. Derive is to make new columns. So in the tidyverse this is like mutate but you're just making new column names and providing some kind of a logic. Here they're running filter again and then there's a grouping and within that grouping what's happening in this query is some aggregation. So grouping by customer ID and then calculating the average total the sum of the income and count. And then sort can take a list of different columns to sort and then I think the minus puts in descending order take is like limit and then you can continue to do join. So anyways PRQL is a really nice language. The thing is that PRQL isn't doing any SQL. You type text and then it spits out SQL. It's not actually performing the operations in the backend. So what you do is you write something in PRQL and you can spit out some valid SQL and some other language. And one of the ports that you can use is DuckDB. And that's what's really cool. So DuckDB is really nice because it's very portable. It's an embedded database. You can use standard SQL syntax if you want which I do think is really good. They've got excellent handling of strings and dates. They come, DuckDB comes with a lot of good functions. Some nice things about PRQL are stated here on this homepage. It's concise, it's database agnostic. So you can take the same PRQL and as long as there's a supported backend for it that PRQL can be translated to other SQL syntaxes. The thing that I personally like though is just the grammar. It feels really close to dplyr and I just like the grammar of dplyr. I think it's a good way to go. And I also like that it lets me use my favorite database tool, DuckDB. So back to the video, I was writing PRQL and then saying, hey PRQL, I want you to compile into SQL and send that SQL to DuckDB. So let's take a look at what that PRQL file looked like again. This was, let's see nvmprql query. All right, so this is all PRQL. If I were to send this as is to DuckDB, it would fail. In fact, I'll go ahead and do that right now. So this is going to be cat PRQL query and then push it to DuckDB. It doesn't work, it doesn't know what this syntax is. So what I do is I have PRQL compile it. So before it hits DuckDB, I do PRQL compile, so this is a command line utility that you've got to install PRQL C and then the command compile and then it spits out a new SQL. So if you look here, this is not at all what we wrote in PRQL syntax, but this is something hopefully that DuckDB can understand. In the bottom here, there's a commented out statement that says what version of PRQL we're using. And so since it's commented out, DuckDB would ignore it. So let's try this, let's do cat PRQL and cat that to DuckDB. And we got something. And then we can cap that to tidy viewer and we have a pretty printed output. Now I have something else in here, which is enter ENTR. ENTR is a command line utility that will automatically run once it sees a file changes. So what you can do is you can echo a file, any kind of file to enter and it will start watching that file. And if you save it and the change has been made, it will rerun whatever you're telling it to run. So what I'm doing is I'm saying enter. I want you to look at PRQL SQL because that's what I'm gonna be editing. When I make a change and save it, what you're going to do is you're going to take that file, push it to be compiled by PRQL and then push that to DuckDB, which will actually run the statements and then push that to tidy viewer which will make a nice display. So in that way, without having to do, without having to use a fancy database manager or a lot of infrastructure, you're able to do lo-fi data manipulation in a very terse syntax. So I'm gonna break this down one more time, kind of in slow motion, but I'm gonna put all the pieces together as I'm typing this. So echo PRQL query. So all this is doing is echoing the file, not the contents of it, just the file, echo this file. So we're gonna push that to enter so enter knows to watch that file. So enter shell, this is a shell mode that we're putting it into. So echo PRQL SQL, enter shell with a C flag. And now what we're putting in quotes is everything that was just explained. We're gonna say PRQL compile, PRQL query dot SQL, and then pipe that to DuckDB, then pipe that to tidy viewer. And there's no tidy viewer. And there's no need to do the dash end command here just because all we're returning is a one row output. And there it goes. So let me think, what do I wanna do here? I'll go ahead and start making edits here. So let's end Vim into PRQL query. Let's say I just wanna call this total, total thing. So I'm gonna call in w to save in Vim. So I made a change and I saved, I should see this over in my other window. There we go, total thing. So that's now updated. And that's all I've got. Thanks for watching.

Hi, you're watching In the Studio here in the DCTV studios at Davis Media Access. My name is Autumn Laberino and I'm hosting this segment. Be sure to tune in weekdays at 10 a.m. to see other segments in addition to this on DCTV. Channel 15 on the Comcast system. You can also catch the replays on menu 99 on AT&T's U-Verse system. And be sure to check out our whole archive online at dctv slash davismedia.org. My pleasure today to have two of our Davis City Council members with us today and we're going to be talking about a proposed renters ordinance. So let me welcome Davis City Council members, Brett Lee and Lucas Frerichs. Welcome. Thank you. Thanks so much for having us. Yeah, so this interview came about, Brett, when you were in here recording your Meet the Candidates statements, we talked about this for quite a while and you were really passionate about it and it kind of got me intrigued that we have some real issues here in Davis. I think it starts with an incredibly low vacancy rate. So what can you tell me about that? Yeah, so the vacancy rates are less than 1%. It's sort of been estimated at anywhere from 0.3% to 0.5%. So in either case, far below 1%. And so the very low vacancy rent creates a dynamic where there's an imbalance, kind of a market imbalance in terms of the normal power of a renter versus the apartment owners in some sense. But there's actually a variety of reasons why I think a renter's ordinance is needed over and above the fact that there's a small vacancy rate. Okay, let's take those in turn. So where the renter's ordinance really came from was from my neighborhood association, the Osteemanner Neighborhood Association. And what was happening was there were certain houses that were known as party houses. So we live in the neighborhood where the pirate house is. So these houses would sort of be handed down from student to student. And so it could be the party house or it could be the volleyball player's house. And the neighbors or most everyone there sort of works. And so on Wednesday night at 1 AM when there's these crazy parties going on, you try it a few times where you'll go and try to be polite. Hey, can you turn the music down? And when it's this sort of ongoing recurring problem, what do you do next? And so the city had some tools to deal with it, but not that many. And really what happened was it just really degraded the quality of life for the neighbors. And so what a couple neighbors did, Vince Sturla and Daniel Boone, is they started looking at other university towns. They looked at Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, Berkeley, San Luis Obispo. And they looked at what their rental ordinances were doing. And they got some ideas from that and they sort of started working on it. And about that time, well, I was involved with it. And then eventually I was on the council. And so the past couple of years, I've been working on it on the council. And I've been joined with Lucas to help kind of shape it and then get it to the point where we think that it's ready to be voted on. And this is something you're hoping to bring later this spring? Actually in two weeks. And two weeks, so very soon. Yeah, so it's May 17th. Yep, it's on the council agenda. So what are some of the problems experienced? You talked a little bit about the problems experienced by neighbors. But what kind of things might renters experience to you where this ordinance would benefit them? Yeah, there's a real need for sort of the sort of ombudsman's approach, where an ability where folks who have issues with their experiencing in their apartments or their house that they're renting, when they're in some cases have landlords, they're not very responsive. And may in fact in many cases be out of town and not nearby or not very responsive to their needs. So there's an example of a couple of undergraduates that I am aware of that live in South Davis earlier this year when we had quite a bit of rainy weather. They had experienced sort of the buckling of their ceiling in their bathroom. It started to water to start pouring through the management for the apartment they were in was not responsive very much at all. It took them a long while to actually get some results and to get someone in there to actually work on fixing it. And this is actually in addition to the same apartment not having a working front door lock for well over a month as well. So I'm not sure that it's universal problem in Davis certainly. But I think it's definitely more, it happens more often than we're aware of. And I think a lot of students just sort of also put up with some of these issues and they don't necessarily, there's no real resource for them to go to in sort of one organized way to come to the city and say, hey, we're having issues here and how to seek sort of remedy for that. And also some sort of resources to help assist them. So it's very important. I imagine also with such a low vacancy rate that there might be some fear about if I make waves, if I report things, where am I going to live? Yes, so that brings up an important point. So where I think the vacancy rate really creates this issue is, if I know there are, and there are 10 people waiting in line for the apartment that I'm living in, I don't want to make too many waves. So when I complain and something isn't done, there are some regulations that apply statewide and also some county health regulations. But they ultimately assume that there's one path is to move out. Like, well, if the landlord's not cooperative, then you can move out. Or at some level, you can complain if there's something, there are a couple items, you have to have a working toilet, right? So, that's health code, right? It is, absolutely. But the remedy there, so the example I give is, we've got a group of students. There's eight of us living in a three-bedroom, two-bath home. Which is a common scenario. Sure, yeah. And one of the toilets doesn't work anymore. And you let the landlord know, hey, the toilet doesn't work. And they're like, yeah, I'll get there, right? I mean, because sometimes, so this is not to throw all the landlords under the bus. There are some apartment complexes and some single-family residential rentals. They are really on top of things. They run a very good operation. You call and complain or point something out. They're there very quickly within a day or two, making the repairs and everything kind of moves forward. But a lot of times, especially with the single-family rentals, anecdotally, we have people who kind of might own a home in Davis, but they live in Boston. And then they try to rent it remotely, and they're not really professionals. And they try to save a little money on property management. So, okay, one toilet's out. Well, I'll get the plumber out there a week later, it's not working. Okay, and then the second toilet goes out. Well, now we can actually do something. As long as you have a working toilet, they're not really in violation of any sort of state laws. Once the second toilet goes out, there is requirement that you have a working toilet, it's a safety issue, it's a health issue. But the remedy is you let the county know, and the county condemns the property as uninhabitable. So imagine you're a student, you're just finishing up midterms and getting ready for finals, and now what do you do? Do you really want to go to the county, complain that your apartment or house is uninhabitable, and then have to go find somewhere to live? It's a major life disruption, potentially. And then there's sort of lower tier things, so imagine your oven doesn't work. I don't know, do people really cook in ovens? I don't know, maybe. But it's out and three weeks later, it's still out, five weeks later, it's still not working, and you're like, well, what should I do? Do you really complain, and then the landlord will then say, well, you're kind of a complainer, so I'm gonna not renew your lease, and then someone else can move in. So there's kind of a variety of things. And then the city's not trying to micromanage the rental relationship, but have some basic reasonable standards and also set the basic expectations for the landlord, for the renter, and also for the neighbor. I mean, that's one of the nice things about this is there's components which address the neighbor's concerns, sort of rights and responsibilities. Landlords, rights and responsibilities, and also the tenants. And there's a nice balance between all three. So how would it work? I mean, those are some of the things it covers, but how would it work? How would it be funded? Who would be the players in it? So there's a couple of components. Maybe I'll just talk a little bit about it, maybe Lucas can fill in some of the details. So part of it is just an information resource. So landlords would register their properties, and they'd be required to. And as part of that, they would pay a fee. For multifamily residences, so apartment complexes, the maximum fee would be what we're proposing is $100 a year for the entire property. So if it's a 75-unit apartment complex or a 200-unit apartment complex, it's still just $100 a year for the entire complex. And not per unit. It's not an important distinction. So it's very modest. And for single-family residential rentals, and actually as an aside, about a third of the single-family residential units, homes, in Davis are rentals. So I mean, it's a very, very large, significant number of homes. But that would be set at $25. And the reason the prices are relatively low is the biggest piece is consolidating a lot of information. So if you're a landlord and your tenant's not behaving as you think they should, or you're concerned about, you know, landlord, what your landlord is doing, you can have this one-stop shop, which would be a website which would have that information, and then also just a little kiosk at City Hall. And there's nothing like this in place right now. That's correct, yeah. It's all very disparate. I mean, there are tiny bits here and there, but they're all, you have to really go search for everything, right, and nowhere to search. And both as neighbors and also as tenants and or landlords. So it's very important to sort of make this one-stop shopping sort of system. So we have everything, sort of that clearinghouse for all of this information to be together in one place, you know, resources for, you know, where to find housing. And for the first place, resources for folks dealing with code enforcement issues, right. I mean, things that might need to be addressed there. So all of that coming together under sort of one city umbrella website will be very helpful in- Dispute resolution as well. Absolutely. The city actually, that's a big part of it, I think. The city years ago had a mediation service set up. Yeah, and it was a city-funded program for a long, long time. Well, during the depths of the Great Recession, the city cut that program. You know, I mean, it was actually a very good program, but the funds were just not there to sort of continue to sustain it. And we had to take a look at, you know, many different types of programs and how to restructure. But out of the cutting of that program, a new nonprofit has actually formed here in Yolo County, the Yolo Conflict Resolution Center. And so this website that will be sort of under the city's umbrella will have direct contact and work with the Yolo Conflict Resolution Center to help connect folks for those types of services, some dispute resolution mediation type services between tenants and landlords or whomever. Yeah, so that would be the second sort of piece. So the first piece is just providing that information. The second is that resource. So before, like right now, if you have a dispute, really it sort of leads to small claims court. That's the only path. Pretty much. And so this would be the sort of intermediate step and more people would be able to take it and the Sacramento Rental Housing Association so they would provide some training for the mediators. So they would be really up on what the tenant landlord law is. So these aren't people just trying to reach an agreement for agreement's sake. They will actually be a good resource and say, hey, this is what the law is. And so, hey, I think your expectations are out of line or, wow, your expectations are in line. How come you guys aren't working together on this? And so there's the information piece and that mediation piece is very important. Sometimes it can be between roommates, right? I am on the name on the lease. You move in and you're supposed to pay me $500 and you didn't pay, but you were gone visiting your friend and there's this little squabble and it just sort of, all the roommates are going, whoa, what's going on, what do we do? Just having a mediator just to sit with and go, oh, okay, well, that seems like we could probably do that. We're down to our last couple of minutes so I do want to ask, what are you hearing out there in terms of support or any concerns about the proposal? So I was going to say, we've had a lot of conversations with folks, I mean, in the community neighborhood groups certainly, but also had major conversations with a lot of the landlords themselves, particularly the big sort of apartment landlords that were the big complexes and things, tandem properties and other folks. And they're cautiously optimistic that we're sort of going in the right direction. They were really concerned. They did not want to see a fee assessed on an individual apartment basis. And they also, and I think this is a very valid concern and something that we've really worked to address is they don't want also the assumption that everybody is sort of guilty from the beginning. This is supposed to be to help solve problems. So when there are issues that arise, we can actually address those as opposed to assuming that everybody is sort of falling into this category with that there are issues that need to be fixed. So there's one other important piece to this. And so apartments are purpose built for rental activity. And this will also include a inspection component for single family residences. So single family residents are, the use is different. It's different when a family lives there versus eight relative strangers all sort of moving in. And so one of the things that we've heard a lot about our illegal garage conversions, which could be, there could be some safety issues there. Yeah, people living in a garage with the gas water heater and a variety of things. And so one of the things that this does include is an inspection component for single family residential. So initially when we talked about it, we met with the people who are in charge of apartment complexes. They were sort of like, well, this inspection piece, look, we're designed to be rentals. We're designed to do what we're doing. Do we really need to do this? And what was nice in those conversations that Lucas and I had with the various interest groups is we were able to kind of really better understand what the current situation is. And the reality is, I think the lion's share of issues in terms of inspection needs are around the single family residential, which are converted from one use to another. And we've actually started to see, in many instances around Davis, situations where you have what was historically a single family residence that was a three or four bedroom house that has been carved inside into 10 bedrooms with 10 to 15 students. I would call them mini dorms. Well, actually the city even has a mini dorm ordinance that limits on the upper end, essentially around a six bedroom home. But what we've actually seen is illegal activity where there's these conversions going on and you've had situations of up to 12 plus bedrooms in the same footprint of essentially a three or four bedroom house. So that's of concern. That's of absolutely serious concern. Even if the codes are being followed inside the house, we can't have that sort of density and you can't have sort of, if it's a four bedroom house, you cannot have 12 bedrooms going on inside. That's just something that we've got to make sure that we're being attuned to both the neighbor's concerns and the community, but also landlords and also tenants and students' concerns. So trying to be balanced. Just very briefly. One of the things also from the neighbor's perspective is we will require that there be a local contact. So there'll be somebody within, let's call it 50 miles away, so that if there is an issue with the property, they'll have somebody they can contact, whether that's the owner or property management company, but somebody, there needs to be somebody responsible nearby. Who's not in Boston, for example. Not just the absentee sort of, yeah. PO Box, somewhere in the Bahamas, right. All right, so again, this is coming to council. Your expectation is on May 17th. And if people want to get more information, I assume cityofdavis.org, and there's a way to contact council members there, if you have questions. You can just kind of click on the links. I want to thank you both for coming in and talking about this. And by the way, we're happy to do this, have this kind of informal discussion on any topics of the day with any council members. So please consider it an open invitation. Oh, thank you. Thanks so much. You've been watching in the studio here at Davis Media Access. We've been talking about a proposed renters ordinance. And my guests have been Davis City Council members, Brett Lee and Lucas Frerichs. I want to thank them for joining us. See you next time.

خاص طور پر آج کی کلاس یا تربیت نشیست جن حالات میں ہورہی ہے اس میں کسی قسم کی تمہید کا موقع نہیں ہے کیونکہ زیادہ ہم کو اس بات کا خیال کرنا ہے کہ اختیطام بالکل وقت پہ ہو جائے لوگ بہت دور دور سے آ رہیں اور مجھے معلوم ہے کہ ہمارے عادلے ساتھی مختلف سڑکوں پر ٹریفرک جیم میں پھسے ہیں جن کے ٹیلیفون وصول ہو رہیں لیکن چونکہ تقریر کا جو اپتیدائی آدھا گھنٹا اس کے مسائل نہ صرف یہ کہ اس مختصر سے کتاب میں جو آپ میں صحرے کو دیجا چکی بہت ایت تفصیل کے ساتھ بیان کیے گھیں بلکہ میں تقریر میں اتنی وزاحت نہیں کر پا رہا ہوں وقت کی کمی کی وجہ سے جتنا میں نے تحریر میں وزاحت کر دیئے تو جو لوگ تقریر کا یہ شروع کا اصلاح مس کر جائیں گے پھر وہ کتاب پہلیں گے تو ان کو اتنی پرشانی نہیں ہوگی اور انشاء اللہ یہ دو مسائل ابھی میں بتانے جا رہا ہوں کم اس کم کاروانی ابوزر کی حد تک انشاء اللہ میں ان مرائل میں خود آپ کے ساتھ بھی ہوں گا اور وہاں بھی ہر ہر عمل شروع کرنے سے پہلے ایک مختصر سی بیری فرنگ یا چنگ اہم مسائل کی میں تقرار کیا کرتا ہوں حج تمتو جو مکے سے نوگے کلومیٹر دور رہنے والوں پہ واجب ہے اس کے دو حصے ہیں پہلے کا نام ہے امرائی تمتو اور دوسرا حصے کا نام ہے حج تمتو حج تمتو یعنی دوسرا حصہ یہ شروع ہوگا پچیس اکتوبر کو پچیس اکتوبر آج ہے بھی اس سے تمبر دوسرے اس سے کے مسائل مکے کے قیام کے دوران بہت تفصیل سے آئیں گے تو ابھی ہم پہلے اس سے پرتے کہ حج کے دو اس سے ہیں پہلے اس سے کا نام امرائی تمتو ہے جس میں یہ پانچ چیزیں واجب ہیں جو پیج number one اور چارٹ number one میں پاہت چیزیں واجب ہے number ایک نیقاد سے احرام پہننا جس کی تفصیل آچ چکی اس کے بعد مکہ پہنچ کر خان ہے کابا کا طواف یعنی ساتھ چکر لگانا اس طریقے سے جو اتوار کی قلاص میں بہت تفصیل سے بیان بھی کیا گئے اور آپ حضرات سے بطورِ مشت ایک چکر لگوا بھی دیا گئے اس میں اہم ترین مسئل ہے کہ انسان وضو اور غسل کے عالم میں ہو بدن باک ہو ساتھ چکر لگائے چکروں کی تعداد میں شکنہ ہونے پائے ہر چکر حجرِ اصوص سے شروع ہوگا لیکن احتیاطاً کچھ پہلے سے شروع کریں دل میں یہ خیال کرتے ہوئے کہ میرا چکر یہاں سے شروع نہیں ہو رہاں جہاں سے میں چل رہاں جب میں حجرِ اصوص کے سامنے پہنچوں وہاں سے مانا جائے ساتھ میں چکر میں حجرِ اصوص کے کچھ آگے تک چلے دیں دل میں خیال یہ ہو کہ میرا چکر یہاں مکمل نہیں ہوا جیسے ہی میں حجرِ اصوص کے سامنے پہنچا دا وہاں میرا یہ طواف یہ چکر مکمل ہو گئے کابہ آپ کے بائی طرف رہے زیادہ اہم یہی چار پانچ باتیں تھی طواف کے بعد مقامِ ابراہیم کے سامنے دو رکت نماز یہ تیس رواجے جس میں کوئی مسئلہ نہیں ہے صرف خواتین کو ایک مسئلہ پیش آسکتا ہے یہ چوں کے آج کل رش کم ہے جب رش کم ہوتا ہے تو وہاں کی انتظامیہ کا کنپول برا سخت ہوتا جیسے جیسے مجمہ بڑھتا جاتا ہے وہ کنٹرول نہیں کر پاتے ہیں تو کنٹرول سخت ہونے کی بنا پر مقامِ ابراہیم کے پیچے خواتین کو نماز نہیں پڑھنے دیتے ہیں تو اگر کہ وہاں میں ہم خود ہوں گے انشاء اللہ سورتحال دیکھ کے بتائیں گے کہ آپ کو کیا کرنا ہے لیکن پھر بھی مسئلے کے حتہ کے سمجھ لیں کہ مقامِ ابراہیم کے پیچے نماز نہ پڑھنے دیں تو اسی کو سید میں رکھتے ہوئے سہن کے بالکل آخر میں اب یہ نای آدمی کی تو ابھی سمجھ میں ہی نہیں آ رہے ہوں گے کہ سہن کیا سہن کے بالکل آخر جہاں اوپر جانے کی 4-5 سیوریاں شروع ہوتی وہاں جائے کہ آپ نماز پڑھنے اس طرح سے کہ بہت دور سائی لیکن مقامِ ابراہیم آپ کو نظر آرہا ہوں اپنی سید میں یہ تیسرہ مسئلہ ہے تیسرہ واجب ہے چوتہ واجب ہے سائی یہ ہے آج کا نیا مسئلہ سائی کے واجبات کا ایک چاٹ ہے یہ جو بوٹ میں لکھا ہے اگر آئی سائیٹ کمدور رنے کی بنا پر یا کوئی پلر کی رقاوت کی بنا پر اس کو نہ پڑھ پا آئے تو اس بکلٹ کا پیج نمبر 7 سائی سائی کا مطلب ہے دو بہڑیوں کے درمیان سات چکر لگانا سائی دو بہڑیوں کے درمیان سات چکر لگانا اس کا طریقہ کیا ہوگا خانے خدا سے قریب حجر اصوت کی طرف اگر آپ پیٹ کر کے سیدہ چل ہے یعنی حجر اصوت آپ کی بیک پر تو آپ سیدہ پہنچ جائیں گے پہلی پہاڑی پر لیکن چونکہ یہ بند کر دیں یہ آواز خرابوری ہے چونکہ اب وہاں بوڑ وغیرہ لگ گئیں ایک وقت تو ایسا تھا کہ وہاں پر کوئی بوڑ نہیں تھا آدمی کو کچھ پتہ ہی نہیں چلتا تھا تو سفہ اور مروا دو پہاڑیاں پہلے یہ بہت اوچی تھی چودہ سو سال نہیں چار ہزار سال پہلے جب حضرت حاجرا یہاں آئی تھی تو بہت اوچی اب ایک درخ زمین کا لیوے نوچہ ہوا دوسری طرف پہاڑیوں کو کاتا گیا تو اب وہ پہاڑیاں تو نہ رہی ایک معمولیسہ سلوپ آپ کو نظر آئے گا ایک چھڑھائی حاجرا حسبت کے قریب جو ہے وہ سفہ ہے اور اس کے سامنے دو فرلان کے فاصلے پر مروا لیکن کھلے میں نہیں جیسے یہ حال ہے نا اسی طرحاک دو فرلان لنبا ایک حال چلا گیا ایسی ہی چھا تھے درمیان میں ایک پارٹیشن بہت چھوٹا سا لگا دیا گیا تاکہ ایک طرف سے لوگ جائیں دوسری طرف سے آئے قریب طریم جو پہاڑی ہے حرم کے وہ ہے سفہ اور جو دور ہے وہ ہے مروا وہاں کوئی پہاڑی آپ کو نظر نہیں آئے گی بس ایک سلوپس ہے جس پہ ٹائل کو اور موزیق کا فرش بنا ہوا تو پہلی پہاڑی کے اوپر کھڑے ہوں گے اور پھر سیدہ سیدہ ایسے حال میں آپ چلیں ایسی حال ایسی طرح پنکے چل رہے ہیں ایسی طرح سے چھت پڑی ہے پلر کے ذریعے سے دو حصے کیئے گئے پہلی پہاڑی سے آپ سیدے گئے کورنر میں دوسری پہاڑی اور جیسا میں نے طواف میں کہا کہ آپ کو خود کچھ نہیں کرنا یعنی پورا مجمع آپ کو چلائے گا سب لوگ اسی طرح جا رہے ہیں دوسری پہاڑی پہنچکے گھومیں گے یعنی وہاں پہنچ گئے پھر وہاں سے واپس یہی پہائیں گے جہاں سے آپ نے اسپارٹ کیا تھا لیکن اس کی کچھ شرطیں پہلی سب سے پہلی شرط ہے کہ آپ نیت کریں گے خالی یہ نیت نہیں کریں گے کہ میں صحیح کر رہا ہوں یہ بھی نیت کریں گے یہ صحیح کس عمل کی ہے حج کی ہے کہ عمرے کی ہے حج کی ہے تو حج کے پہلے حصے کی صحیح ہے کہ دوسرے حصے کی فلال تو ہم حج کے پہلے حصے کو سمجھا رہیں اس کی نیت یہ ہوگی کہ میں عمرہ اتمتوں کے لئے سب سے پہلے اپنا حج میں اپنے واجب حج کے عمرہ اتمتوں کے لئے صحیح کرتا ہوں پھر یاد دلاؤ دوں کہ نیت کا وہی مسئلہ ہے جو عام عمادتوں میں دل کا خیال کافی دماغ میں خیال ہو تو زبان سے کہنا ضروری نہیں دوسری شرطی ہے کہ جیسے طواق میں گدرہا کہ سات چکر لگانا ہے نکم نا زیادہ دوسری شرطی ہے کہ یہ چکر سفہ سے شروع ہوں گے اور مرواب ایک ختم ہوگی اپنی مرزی نہیں ہے کہ چاہی یہاں سے شروع کرو چاہے وہاں سے نہیں سفہ سے شروع کرنا ہے سات چکر لگانا ہے جو سفہ سے شروع ہوگے مرواب ایک ختم ہوگی اب ایک غلط فہمی پہلے ہوتی تھی جس کے نتیجے میں سات چکر واجب لوگ 14 چکر لگاتے تھے وہ غلط فہمی کیا ہوتی تھی کہ سفہ سے مروا جانا اور پھر واپس آنا یہ ایک چکر مانا جائے گا جیسے طواف نہیں یہ حجر عصبت سے شروع کریں گے جب گھون کے حجر عصبت پر آنگے تو ایک چکر تو صحیح میں بھی سوال پیدا ہوتا جہاں سے شروع کریں گے جب واپس وہیں بے آنگے تو ایک چکر نہیں وہ دو چکر یعنی جانا ایک چکر ہے مروا تک پھر واپس آنا دوسرا پھر جائیں گے تو تیسرہ ہے پھر آنگے تو چوتھا پھر جائیں گے تو پاچمہ ہے پھر آنگے تو چکا پھر جائیں گے تو ساتمہ تو صحیح کی ایک بہت آسانی والی چیز یہ ہے کہ جہاں سے صحیح شروع کریں گے ختم وہی بھی نہیں ہوگی ختم ہوگی سامد اور بکلٹ کے پیج نمبر ایٹ پر جو یہاں چارٹ نہیں لگایا ہم نے بکلٹ کے پیج نمبر ایٹ پر زرا سا اس کو سمجھانے کی کوشش کی گئی نیچے کی جانب بکلٹ میں نیچے کی جانب سفا پہاڑی ہے اور اوپر جو ہے مروا پہاڑی تو وہاں لکھا بھی ہے کہ سفا سے مروا پہلہ تیسرہ پاچمہ اور ساتمہ چکر ہوگا اور آتے وقت دوسرا چوتہ اور چھٹھا اس کو ابھی میں بتاتا ہوں تو یہ ایک بڑی آسانی ہے اس لی ہے کہ آسانی ہے کہ جانا اور آنا ایک نہیں دو چکر ہوگا جس کی وجہ سے ایک مسئلہ جو طواف میں بھی ہے اور صحیح میں بھی ہے لیکن طواف میں پیش آتا ہے صحیح میں پیش نہیں آتا پیش تو آتا ہے حل ہو جاتا راستہ نکل آتا کہ سات چکر لگانا ہے چکروں کی تعداد میں شک نہیں ہونا چاہیے مگر طواف کے اندر اگر شک پہدہ ہو تو کوئی ہمارے پاس حل نہیں ہے کہ کیسے اپنے شک کو ختم کر بہت یہ ہے کہ خود سوچیں کہ شاید ہماری میموری کچھ کام آجا صحیح میں مسئلہ بہت ہے یہ ہے کہ سات چکر لگانا ہے نکم نزیادہ اور شک نہیں ہونا چاہیے لیکن یہاں اگر شک ہو جائے نا تو صراسی مدد مل جاتی ہے کہ ہم صفہ سے مربہ جا رہے ہیں یا وہاں سے ایدھر آ رہے ہیں اک عدد عد نمبر اگر صفہ سے مربہ جانے تو وہ ہونے چاہیے اور واپس آ رہے ہیں تو ایون یا جفت عدد ہونا چاہیے مثلا ہمیں شکوا کہ یہ تیسرہ چکر ہے کہ چاہو تھا تو آپ نے امرے پاس کوئی راستہ نہیں ہے سوائے اپنے دماغ پر زور دینے کے صحیح میں ایک راستہ ہے کہ اگر صفہ یہ صفہ پاڑی یہاں سے مربہ جا رہے ہیں تو یقینن یہ تیسرہ ہوگا چاہو تھا نہیں ہو سکے اور واپس آ رہے ہیں تو یہ چاہو تھا ہوگا تیسرہ نہیں ہو سکے چاہیے ہوگا تیسرہ ہے کہ چاہو تھا چھٹا ہے کہ سات ما اگر صفہ سے مربہ جا رہے تو چھٹا نہیں ہو سکتا ہے سات ما ہو ادھر سے آ رہے ہیں اور شکوا کہ چھٹا ہے کہ سات ما تو وہ سات ما نہیں ہوگا وہ چھٹا ہو ذرا سا غور کرے تو سمجھ میں آبی جائے گا اور یہ مسالہ پیش نہیں آتا لیکن سا چکر لگانا ہے صفہ سے شروع ہوگا مربہ پے ختم ہو یعنی صفہ سے مربہ جانا ایک ہے اور واپس آ جانا یہ دو ہو اسی طرح کی ایک غلط فہمی عملِ عشورہ میں ہوتی کہ سات مرتبہ اِنَّا لِلَّہُ وَ اِنَّا لَاِلَہِ رَاجِ اُنَّا رِضَنْ بِقُوَا اِحِ وَ تَسْقِیمًا لِعَمْرِ سات سے مطلب کیا ہے ایک دفاہ آگے گئے اور پھر پھر پیچے آئی یہ ملکے ایک ہوا یا یہ دو ہوگا اس میں بھی علمہ میں اختلاف ہے اس میں کوئی اختلاف نہیں کیا اختلاف نہیں ہے کہ جانا ایک ہے اور آنا دو ہو جائے چکر لگاتے وقت روخ سامنے کی طرف یعنی سیدہ سیدہ آپ پہ چلنا سفہ سے مربہ جا رہا ہے اُلٹا نہیں چل سکتے اور بہت سے قابلے کے لیڈر اُلٹا چل رہے ہوں گے جو سمجھدار ہیں وہ اپنی صحیح خود نہیں کرتے یہ وہ لوگ ہیں جو اپنے قابلے کو انسترکشن دے رہے قابلہ پورا ادھر سے آ رہا اور لیڈر کو انسترکشن دےنا کہ اس طرح چلیں یا دمائیں پڑھوانا ہے تو وہ اُلٹا چلتا تو کوئی حرج نہیں اگر وہ خود اپنی صحیح نہیں کر رہا لیکن وہ تو میں نے صرف یہ سمجھنے کے لیے بتایا کہ آپ کو ایسے لوگ نظر آئیں گے جو اُلٹا چلیں یہ اجازت نہیں ہے اگر صحیح کر رہے بالکل کومنسنس کی بات ایک سفہ سے مربہ جا رہے سامنے روخنا چاہئے واپس آ رہے تو ایدر روخنا چاہئے آلبتا تھوڑا ٹیلہ ہو جائے ذکزیک ہوکے چلیں تو کوئی حرج نہیں اور پاچھوے مسئلہ بہت اہم ہے وہ یہ ہے کہ باجباتِ حجم ہے چاہے پہلا حصہ ہو یعنی امرائطہ مدتو چاہے دوسرا سب سے زیادہ زہمت صحیح میں ہوتی تھی جل لوگوں نے کبھی حج نہیں کیا تھا ان کے زہن تو ایدر جاتے ہی نہیں تھی تو سمجھتے تو تواف میں بڑی زہمت ہوتی ہوں صحیح اس کی جگہ بہت تنگ تھی بہت ای چھوٹی سی جگاتی جس میں مسئلہ نے ایک وقت میں دولاک آدمی صحیح کرتے ہیں اب مجمہ بڑھتا جا رہا ہے ہر سال تو اب حکومت نہیں کیا تھا کہ مجمے کو یہ دونوں پہاڑیوں میں صحیح کرنا ہے مجمے کو کم کرنے کے لیے صحیح کی جگہ کئی منزلاب بنا دے مسرن چار منزلا تو اب کیا وہ دولاک کا مجمہ تقسیم ہو گیا پورے دولاک ایک حال میں نہیں ہے پچاس یہاں پچاس وہاں پچاس وہاں پچاس اب پھر بھی کام نہیں چلا تو جو سفا مروا کی درمیان راستہ تھا اس کو دبل کر دیا لنبائی میں بھی بڑھا دیا چوڑائی میں بھی دبل کر دیا اب یہ نیچے کے حال میں پچاس ہزار کی انہوں نے دولاک میں سے اب اس کو دبل کر کے پچی سو پچیس اب یہ تو حکومت کر رہی ہے اپنے انتظامی سہولت کے لئے اور حاجیوں کی سہولت کے لئے اس میں سے کتنی چیزیں ہماری فقہ میں اجازت وہ پچھوی شرط اور یہ بہت بڑی بلندر والی مستیق ہے جو ہمارے لوگ کرتے یہ اتنی خطر نہ غلتی ہے کہ اس کی وجہ سے پورے حج غلط ہوتے ابہاں چھوٹی سی غلط اسارات بہت بڑے وہ یہ ہے کہ سائی میں پاکنی شرط ہے کہ اوپر کی منزلوں سے سائی نہ کریں سائی صرف جو گراون لیویل ہے گراون فلور وہاں سے کریں اور واقعاں وہاں بہت مجمہ بہت زیادہ ہوتا حتہ مسلمانوں کے وہ فقہ یا اسکول آف تھاٹ جن کی فقہ میں اوپر سے سائی جائز بھی وہ بھی پہلی کوشش نیچے سے کرتے ہیں ہمارے آتے اوپر سے جائزی نہیں ہے ہم اگر گراون فلور پی آنا ہے تو سمجھ میں آتا جن کیا اجازت گراون فلور کی سائی وہی واجب ہے اوپر کی منزلوں سے سائی کی ہماری فق میں اجازت نہیں اگر کوئی اوپر کی منزل سے سائی کر لے گا تو وہ سائی نہیں مانی گئی یہ مانے جائے گا کہ اس نے اپنا عمرہ کمپلیٹ نہیں کیا نوازِ طواف تک عمل کی آگے کچھ نہیں کیا جب تک کی عمرہ اطمت تو پورا نہ ہو پہلے عصا دوسرہ عصا شروع نہیں کر سکتا بلکے بلکے اگر آپ سال میں کبھی کوئی عمرہ کر کے آگے رمزان میں مسئلہ اور اس میں آپ نے اوپر سے سائی کر لی تھی تو فقی اعتبار سے وہ عمرہ بھی آپ کا کمپلیٹ نہیں تھا پاچی دے باجی بہنہ اہنام آپ نے پہنا نمبر ذا طواف کیا نمبر چار آپ سمجھے کہ آپ سائی کر کے آگے اوپر شرم آپ نے چوتہ باجب کیا نہیں تھیسرے پر رکے ہوئے جب تک پورے پاتھ باجب نہیں ہوگے آپ کا حرام نہیں اترے وہ حرام اب تک آپ کا چل رہا رمزان میں دو سال پہلے آپ نے عمرہ کیا آئے اب تک آپ کا حرام چل رہا وہ ساری چیزیں حرام اور صرف اتنائیں جب تک کے ایک عمرہ پورا نہ ہو آپ دوسرا اہرام پہن ہی نہیں سکتے چناچا اگر دیر سال پہلے کا عمرہ اب تک چل رہا ہے تو آپ حج کر ہی نہیں سکتے اب یہ بہت سارے اسانات ہیں جو میں انشاء اللہ مققے میں بتاؤن گا جہاں ہمارے پاس یادہ وقت ہوگا تو اوپر کی منذل سے سائی نہ کریں اور یہ اتنی بڑی غلطی یا بلندر والی میں سپیک ہے کہ پورا حج بھی غلط کرتی ہے بلکہ پیچے کسی عمرے میں آپ نے چھے مہینے ایک سال پہلے غلطی کی تو نہ صرف یہ کہ یہاں آکر بھی آپ پہ خوشبو حرام ہے اور بال کوڑنہ حرام ہے اور آینہ دیکھنہ حرام ہے اور مردوں پہ سلے میں کپرے پہننا حرام ہے بلکہ آپ مزید کوئی حج کو یمرہ کر ہی نہیں سکتے جب تک پہلے والے کو مکمل نہ کر اب یہاں ایک مسئلہ ہوتا جو میں قواف میں بتا چکا ہوں کہ بہت سلو سائی کا یہ فاصلہ دل تیل نہیں کر پاتے بیمار ہیں تھکے ہوئے ہیں خیر تھکن تو جواز نہیں ہے بیمار ہیں بوڑے ہیں اچانک فریکچر ہو گیا وہاں بے تو وہ ویل چیر کے اوپر ان کو سائی کروائی جاتی اور جب مجمہ نیچے بہت بڑھ جاتا تو وہ ویل چیر کو نیچے بند کر دیتے ہیں کہتے ویل چیر والے تو اوپر جائیں تو اب اگر کوئی ایسا قیس ہے خدا نخاستا ویل چیر مکے کے قیام میں ہو گیا اور وہ پیدل سائی کر ہی نہیں سکتا تو ویل چیر ویل چیر کی جازت نہیں ہے تو مسالہ یہ ہے حتہ ویل چیر والے بھی اس عمل سے بچی پھر وہ کیا کریں گے یہ تواف میں آئے کہ کسی سے کہیں گے تو میری طرف سے نیچے سائی کرو اور خود وہ ویل چیر میں اوپر سے کریں علبتا تحخانے سے سائی کی جا سکتی ہے اور یہ مسالہ یہ بنا کہ ساودی حکومت میں دیکھے ان کی بہت سمجھ میں آ رہی کہ مجمے کو تخصیم کرنے کا ایک ہی طریقہ سفہ مروا کا راستہ وہ چوڑا کیا جائے وہ کر دیا اوچا کیا جائے حچہ اب انہوں نے یہ کیا ہے کہ ایک تل جو گراون دیویل چوڑا سو سال بلکے چار عزا سال سے لوگ اسی میں سائی کرتے چلے آ رہی پھر اس پر انہوں نے دو تین منزلے اور بنا دی اور پھر اس گراون لیویل کی نیچے تحخانے میں جیسے آج آپ بیسمنٹ میں اترکے آئے یا سامررہ میں آپ امامِ زمانہ کی بلاددگا دیکھنے وہ سرداب میں جاتے ہیں تو انہوں نے سفہ مروا پہاڑی میں جو عام گراون لیویل تحخانے کے اندر یہ بیسمنٹ میں یا سرداب میں بھی سفہ اور مروا پہاڑی کے بیچ کا راستہ وہ ہمارے یہاں جائیس اور ابھی تک جیسے جیسے لوگوں کو پتہ چلتا ہے بات مشکل ہوتی ابھی تک سب سے آسان سائی جو ہے وہ وہاں سے ہوتی لیکن خیر یہ چیزیں تو مققے میں کیونکہ ابھی تو ہم جا رہے ہیں تو انشاء اللہ بھی اتنا مجمہ نہیں ہوگا لیکن جو حج کے قریب یورب سے امریکہ سے پاکستان سے قابلے آ رہے تحخانے کی سائی بالکل جائیس یہ پان شرطیں ہو گئی یہ نیت کریں گے سفہ پہاڑی پے کھڑے ہوگا سفہ پہاڑی سے مطلب جو حج ریاسود کے قریب پر وہاں سے سیدہ دوسری پہاڑی تک ایسی حال میں جائیں گے اس طرح ساتھ چکر لگا ہر چکر میں بالکل سیدہ سیدہ چلیں گے جب سفہ سے مروا جائیں گے تو سینہ اور پیٹ مروا کی طرف واپس آئیں گے تو سینہ اور پیٹ سفہ کی طرف چہرے کو گھومانے میں کوئی حرد نہیں ساتھ چکر لگانا ہے نہ کم نہ زیادہ اور حت تل امکان گراون فلور پر سائی کرنا ہے یا تحخانے میں اوپر تو سائی کی اجازت نہیں یہ تو ہو گئی شرائت اب آئیے کچھ آسانیا سائی میں تحارت شرط نہیں امرے میں پانچ پاڑی بے ہیں ہم احرام پہنے کے بعد میں آئے کہ طواف کیا تو اس کے لئے بوزو کر کے آئے پھر نمازِ طواف کے لئے بوزو وہی چل رہا ہوگا وہی بوزو آپ جب سفہ پہاڑی پہ آئے وہی بوزو چل رہا یعنی اگر وہ چلتا رہا تو ٹھیک ہے اگر بیٹ میں بوزو سائی کے دوران ٹھوٹ گئے طواف اگر 15 منٹ میں ہوتا ہے تو سائی 45 منٹ یہ ہے اب ہی آج کل جب مجمہ کل پھر طواف ہوگا ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹوٹ گئے سائی ہوگی ٹھیک ٹھیک تو آج کل بھی جب مجمہ کم ہے لیکن فاصلہ تو دو میل کا ہے تو ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک تو لگتے ہیں بہت سے لوگ ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک ٹھیک پھر تک اپنا بوزو نہیں بچاپا تو سائی میں بوزو شرط نہیں treat چاہے آپ کا بوزو خدبعخود کھر جا یعنی آئے نمازِ طواف کے بعد حاجت پیش آر یہ پیش آپ تھی تو جو سفا مربہ ہے اس کے بالکل سامنے بھی ٹوائلٹس گئے اور فارق ہوکے آگائے تو کیا ہے بذو نبی کیا سائی بغیر بذوکے ہو سکتی ہے پہلی بار دوسری بات ہے کہ سائی میں اگرچے ساتھ چکر پیدر پی لگانا لیکن چو کہ یہ ذرا سا لمبا و مہند کا کام ہے تو دونوں پہدیوں پر تھوڑی تھوڑی دیر آپ بیٹھ سکتے ہیں لیکن چو کہ ابھی اس کی ضرورت پیش نہیں آئی ہے ابھی سر مطلب جو قافلے شروع میں جا رہی بلکہ اتنا جوش ہوتا ہے لوگوں یا اگر ہم کسی سے کہتے بھی ہیں تو کہتا نہیں مولا سب ایک ساتھ ہی کرنے کرنے کہا پھر جتنے جلدی مکمل ہو جائے اچھا سائی میں جس حال میں یہ سائی ہوتی اس کے درمیان میں گرین پیو بلائیٹ لگی جو پہلے گرین پیلر تھے وہ دو سٹ ہے اس کے یعنی شروع میں لگی ہے پھر تھوڑی دور کے بعد ایک اور ان دو کے درمیان مردوں کے لیے تھوڑا ساتھ تیس چلنا مستہب دورنا نہیں جوگنگ کی طرح زرہ ساتھ تیس چلنے اسے اوٹھ چلتا جس کو عربی میں کہتے ہیں ہر والا تو ایمام کی حدیث ہے کہ عورت اور مرت کے حج میں پانچ بڑے فرق ایک احرام کے لباس کا ہے اور دوسرا تلویہ زور سے پڑھنے کا مردوں میں اور عورت آہستہ تیس رہی ہے لہ حر والا تا علن نیسا عورت کے لیے دونوں گرین لائٹ کا جو سیٹ ہے اس کے درمیان اس کو اس کو توجہ نہیں دےنا کیا ہے وہ بالکل نورمال انداز سے صحیح کریں مرت کے لیے مستہب ہے کہ جاتے بغھ بھی اور آتے بغھ تھوڑا ساپنی سپیٹ کو بہا دے لیکن واجب تو مردوں کے لیے بھی نہیں اور خاص طور پہ کوئی ہاتھ پریشنٹ ہے یا بوڑا آدمی ہے یا بیک پین کا مسئلہ ہے صحیح کے درمیان بھی کچھ پڑھنا واجب نہیں خاموچھ رہے کہ صحیح ہو سکتی ہے باتے کرتے وی صحیح ہو سکتی ہے لیکن اس میں اگر آپ کچھ پڑھتے وی صحیح کریں تو مناسب ہے کیوں کہ یہاں طواف کی طرح سے یہ در نہیں ہے کہ کندہ ہڑیا ہے آپ دیکھیں گے کہ مثلان آج کی راست شبے جمع اور اگلی شبے جمع آپ انشاء اللہ مققے میں ہوں گے امراکر کے آرام سے بیٹھے ہوں بہت سارے قابلے قابلے پورے پورے اور آلگ آلگ صحیح کرتے جاتے ہیں پوری دوائے کمیر خدم ہو جاتے ہیں ساتھ چکھ کرو دوائے جوشہ نے قبیر صحیح میں ہوتی ہے کہ صحیح بھی چل رہی ہے کتاب ہاتھ میں ہے دوائے جوشہ نے قبی صورہی آسی تو خیر لیکن واجب کچھ نہیں بیل کو خاموش صحیح کریں یا ایک دوسرے سے باتیں کرتے ہیں صحیح کے بعد اب آئیے چاہے چاٹ پے جائے چاہے وہی پیج number 1 پے عمرہ تمتوں کا پاچمہ اور آخری واجب تقصیر چاٹ number 1 تقصیر عمرہ تمتوں کا آخری واجب جس کے بعد آپ کے حچ کا پہلا حصہ مکمل ہوگا تقصیر کے لفظی مانے ہیں چھوٹا کرنا حج میں تقصیر کا مطلب یہ ہے کہ اپنے بالوں کو یا ناکون کو تھوڑا سا قاٹ لےنا عمرہ تمتوں میں جب آپ کی صحیح مکمل ہوگا اور اگر آپ کو مسائل اب تک ذہن میں تو ہم لوگ سامنے مروا پے ہوں گا سبہ سے شروع کریں گے last 7 جو ہمارا رون ہوگا وہ مروا پے ہوگا اب وہی پہ کھڑے کھڑے تقصیر کریں یعنی اپنے سرکے تھوڑے سے بال کاٹیں اور بالی کی کاٹنیں تو اچھا ہے ناکون سے گرس کریں کیوں کہ بعد مراجب مثلا ناغہ سیستانی فرماتیں احتیاطِ واجب یہ ہے کہ ناکون کاٹنے سے تقصیر نہیں ہوگی اور آپ کاہرام نہیں اترے گا آپ چھوٹھے نمبر پر ہوکے ہوئے یہ مسئلے کو ذہن میں رکھیے کہ پانچ واجبات میں سے جو آپ خلط کریں گے اس کا مطلب یہ کہ آپ اس سے پہلے والے واجب پے رکھ گئے تو اگر آپ نے تصریر خلط کی تو اس کا مطلب آپ چوتے واجب صحیح پے رکھ گئے عمل آپ کا پورہ نہیں ہوئے چھوڑے سے بال کاٹنے کو تمام مراجے دروس مانتے ہیں اب بعض مراجے کہتے ہیں کہ ناکون بھی کاٹنے جا سکتے ہیں لیکن اب آپ اگر سیسانی جیسے مشہور مراجے جن کی تقلید میں اکثریت وہ منہ کرتے ہیں تو جو سوائے مجبوری کے اس مسئلے پے عمل نہ کیا جائے یعنی تقصیر کا جو ایک آبشن ہے بال یا ناکون اس کو استعمال نہ کرے بال ہی کو کاٹیں چھوڑا چاہتے آپ کو وہاں بھی یہ ہدایت دی جائے گی اور ابھی بھی کہ جب آپ امرہ کرنے کے لیے حوٹل سے حرم جائے تو اپنے ساتھ کہنچی لیکے جائے جب سائی مکمل ہوگی تو کہنچی نکالی اور اپنے سر کے تھوڑے سے بال تائے سے ابائیں سے اوپر کے سر سے پیچھے کی جانب سے تھوڑے سے بال آپ کو اپنے ہاتوں سے خود کاٹنا اور اس کی نیت یہ ہوتی ہے کہ احرام اتارنے کے لیے تقصیر کر رہا ہوں چنانچے جیسے ہی آپ کے وہ بال کتھ جاتے ہیں تھوڑے سے بال اپنے اصلی بال باس خواتین ساتھ میں چھوٹی پہنچی ہیں چھوٹی کے بال اپنے بال تو جب وہ بال کتھ جاتے ہیں تو امرہ آپ کا کمپلیٹ وہ آخری پانچمہ واجید اور امرہ مکمل ہوگیا تو اب آپ کا احرام اتر گئے اگر اتر کے آگیا آپ تو بیسلاک کے مجنے میں مروا پہاڑی میں کھنے چادریں تو آپ کے بدن پر ہیں اب یہ احرام کی چادریں نہیں رہی جدنی احرام کی پابندیاتی سب ختم ہوگا تو تقصیر کا مطلب ایک فوڑے سے بال کاتنے تو آپ کا احرام اتا جائے گا میں نے پہلی تقریر میں بھی کہ احرام کپڑوں کا نام نہیں ایک نیت کا نام تو چادریں بیشت کو ہی رہیں گے لیکن اب یہ احرام نہیں رہا یہ عام چادریں بن رہے تقصیر کرتے وقت زیادہ تفصیلات نہیں ہے مگر تین مسئلے بتا کے بعد ختم کرو پہلہ مسئلہ یہ ہے کہ عام طور پر لوگوں کو چونکہ عمرہ مکمل کرنے کی جلدی ہوتی تو چوتھے واجب صحیح کے بعد پاچما واجب تقصیر جہاں پر کھڑے ہیں مربہ پاڑی وہی پہ کی جاتی اور یہ سارے عالم اسلام کا مسئلہ تو بڑے بڑے آپ کو دزمین رکھے بنظرائیں گے مربہ پاڑی پے جو کٹے بے بالوں سے بھڑے بے لیکن شرح مسئلہ یہ ہے کہ تقصیر صعیی کے بعد آپ کو کرنا اب یہ آپ کی مرضی ہے چاہے وہی مربہ پاڑی پے کریں چاہے ہوتل میں آکے کریں فوراں کریں کہ دو چار گھنٹے کے بات کریں لیکن یہ تو میں خالی مسئلے کے لیے بتا رہا ورنا کو احرام کی پابندیاں ختم کرنے کی ہرے کو اتنی جلدی ہوتی ہے جب تقصیر نہیں ہوگی احرام کی پابندی چلتی رہے گی پابندی مطلب وہ چیزیں جو حرام ہے حرام رہی تو پہلی بہت تو یہ کہ معلومات کی حتک تقصیر کو صعیی کے بات کرنا لیکن یہ ضروری نہیں کہ فوراں کرے اور وہی بے کرے جہاں صعیی مکمل ہوئی ہے اس مسئلے سے کوئی آپی فائدہ نہیں اٹھاکا ہے اور اٹھانا چاہیے بھی نہیں جتنی دیر پابندیاں چاہنے گی اتنی دیر مسئل ہے دوسری بات جو بہت بہت بہت اہم کہ بہت سے لوگ زرہ سا انکمفٹیبیل فیل کرتے ہیں اپنے بال خود کاتنا پہلی دفعہ ایسا عمل ہو رہا ہوتا اور آئینا بھی کوئی نہیں تو ہوتا ہی ہے کہ دو آدمی کہا کہ ہم تمہارے بال کاتنگیں گے تمہارے بال کاتنگ دےنا یہ حرام کی حالت میں بال کاتنا حرام تھا صرف صعیی کے بات جو خود عمرہ کر رہا ہے اس کے لیے اپنے بال کاتنا اجازت لیکن وہ بھی دوسرے کے بال نہیں کات سکتا تو اگر دونوں نے ایک دوسری سے کہتا چلیں میں تمہارے بال کاتتا ہوں تو میری بال کاتنگ تو جب ہم نے دوسرے کے بال کاتے تو ابھی لیکن ہمارا اہرام چل رہا ہماری تک信 نہیں رہا ہم nosaltres کے بال کات کیا تو یہ غلط تک سیر ہو گی یاquisا اس کے بال نہیں کاتے وہ سمجھا کہ میرے دو only بال کاتا ہم concerts کے بال کاتو اس نے امارے بال کاتا تو ابھی تو اس کی تکصیر نہیں ہوئی اس کے لیے بھی حرام تا بال کاتا ہو اس نے ہمارے بال کاتا ہے کہ یہ بال بھی تقصیر نہیں مانے جائے دونوں کا اہرام باقی رہے گا اور یہ قلتی بہت ہوتی ہے کہ لوگ گروپ بنالیتے ہیں کہ تم ہمارے بال کاتو ہم تمارے بال یہ غالت ہے اس سے پورے امرے میں گربر ہو جاتی آپ کا اہرام نہیں اٹرا تو یہ تو اپنے بال خود کاتے یہ اگر زمت ہو رہے یہ پہلی دفعہ والے کو گرکی اس کی پرکٹرسو آج کال آپ گھر میں کر سکتے ہیں کوئی مسئل نہیں ہو بہت آج 10 بال بھی اگر آپ لیتے تو بھی وہ تقصیر کے لیے کافی تو اگر زمت ہو رہی ہے تو ایسے آتنی سے مدد لیں جو اپنے بال کات کر اپنا اہرام اٹار چکا ہے چادرے پہنے اہرام اٹھر گئے تو یہ بہت اہم قلتی ہے تقریبا مجھے لگ رہا ہے کہ فل اٹرنڈنس ہو گئی جن کو آنا ہے وہ آگا ہے یہ چھوٹی والی جو مناصل کہا جائے اس کو ضرور پڑھتے رہیے گا ترمیتی نشستوں سے زیادہ تفصیل اور بزاہت کے ساتھ آسان زبان میں اس میں مسئلے آئے اور یہ مسئلے اس میں بھی لکھا اور تیسری اور آخری غلطی خواہتین کی ہوتی کہ چو کہ وہ اہرام اٹارنے کی بڑی جلدی ہوتی فدری بات ہے کوئی اس میں قباہت نہیں خرابی نہیں تب یہ ہوتا ہے کہ یہ خیال نہیں کیا جاتا کہ ہیجاب تو بہرال واجب ہے چاہے حج ہو چاہے صعی ہو چاہے کچھ تو جس طرح مردے کسرے کے بال مجمعیام میں کارٹ رہے ہیں خواہتین بھی سی طرح وہ اپنی اہرام کی چادر اٹھائی بال نکالے اور کارٹے نہیں یہاں پہلے مسئلے کی ضرورت پڑے گی اب دیکھیں کہ آگا رورت یہ محسوس کرے کہ مجھے ایسا کوئی ماہول یا کونہ یا کورنر نہیں مل پا رہا جہاں پر میں اپنے بال نہ محرم سے چھپا کر کارٹوں تو نہیں کارٹے مروا پہاڑی بے بال نہیں کارٹے وہ ہوتل میں پہنچکے اپنے کمرے میں جاکے بال کارٹے اب یہ مسئلہ جو پہلہ مسئلہ میں نے بتایا اور خود بھی کہا کہ کسی کو اس کی ضرورت نہیں ان اورتوں کو ضرورت پڑھنے اور واقعاں وہ آپ اتنا مجمہ ہوتا ہے جب آپ بایجی بھج کا پہلہ اسسا کرتے ہیں چپے چپے بے آدمی بیٹھے ہوئے لیکن پھر خواتی نے ایک دوسرے کی مدت کرتی ہیں ساتھ آٹھ اورٹوں نے اپنا گروپ بناک ایک سرکل بنایا اس میں خاتون گئیں ان اورتوں نے ان کو ایک طرح سے حجاب دیا انہوں نے بال کارٹے وہ بہاں را گئیں پھر کوئی دوسری عورت گئیں تو یہ اتنا مشکل بھی نہیں ہے اگر آٹھ چار پاچ عورتے موجودوں اور قافلے کا ایک فائدہ یہ بھی اکلی عورت حج پہ جائے تو پھر ایک مسئلہ ہوتا تو حجاب اپنی جگہ ہے بال کارٹنہ اپنی جگہ ہے دونوں واجبات کو ملا کے چلنا تقصیر کے بعد پاچمہ واجب تھا تقصیر اب وہ چارٹ بہت دور ہو گیا ہے خواتین کے لیے اور جو مرد ہیں ان کو لیے بھی آئی سائٹ کی وجہ سے تو یہ بکلٹ کا ایجوان تقصیر کے بعد آپ کا حرام اتر گئے یعنی حج کا پہلہ حصہ مکمل ہوگا اب آپ کو حج کا دوسرا حصہ کرنا اور اس کے تفصیلی مسائل انشاء اللہ مققے میں آئے سر سری ابھی میں بتا رہا ہوں تفصیل مققے لیکن زمنا نے بات میں یہ بتا دوں کہ ہم لوگ 11 اکتوبر کو مدینے جائیں گے انشاء اللہ اور 20 اکتوبر کو مدینے سے آئیں گے تو ہم 20 اکتوبر کو جب مدینے سے آئیں گے تو وہاں سے ہمارا حش شروع ہوگا ہم وہاں سے ایرام پہنے گے جو حج کے پہلے حصے کا ہوگا جو واجی بھجے نا اس کا اسلام میں ایک اور نام ہے اور وہ زیادہ مشہور حج جے اسلام حج جے اسلام کا مطلب ہے واجی بھجے یہ جات رکی ہے کہ ایک ترم استعمال ہوتے تو ہم لوگ جب مدینے سے آئیں گے تو ہم اپنا حج کا جو حج آپ کا حصل مقصد امرے کے لیے آپ نہیں جا رہے ہیں تو سال میں کبھی بھی جا سکتے تھے اب حج کے وہ 20 اکتوبر کو مدینے سے آئیں گے اور اب پہلے حصہ پورا ہوگا لیکن ابھی جو ہم جا رہے ہیں سعودی عرب 24 ستمبر کو ہماری فلائٹ ہے اور کوئی قابلہ 28 کو 27 کو 26 کو 24 تو یہاں سے لے گا 11 اکتوبر کو مدینے جانے تک جو 20 دینے اس میں ہم کیا کرے جب کہ یہ بات پشری تقریر میں آگے کہ مققے میں کوئی شخص بغیر اہرام پہنے داخل ہی نہیں ہو سکتا تو ابھی تو مققے گئی اس لیے اس پیج ون کے چاٹ کا اوپر والا اصلا پہلے اصلا اب کام آئے گے کہ ہج ہم کریں گے 20 اکتوبر سے ابھی سے لے کے 20 اکتوبر تک ہم عمرے کریں گے کون سے عمرے جو عام دنوں میں لوگ کرتے ہیں کوئی اپریل میں عمرے پے گیا تھا کوئی جون میں گیا تھا ابھی ہم عمرے کریں گے اور جو عمرے ابھی ہم کریں گے چونکہ وہ عمرہ خود ایک عبادت وہ کوئی کسی کا حصہ وحصہ نہیں اس لئے اس کو کہتے ہیں عمرہ مفردہ چاٹ پر بھی لکھا ہوا ہے عمرہ مفردہ اور یہ بکلٹ کا بھی پہلہ پیج اور ابھی ہم جو کہ یہ کریں گے تو اس کا طریقہ بھی سمجھل اس کا بہی طریقہ ہے جو باجب حچ کے پہلے حصے کا طریقہ دیکھتے جائے نیقہ سے رام باننا عمرے میں بھی باجب ہے حچ کے پہلے حصے میں بھی باجب تھا نمبر دو طواف ایک آبا عام عمرے میں بھی باجب ہے حاج والے عمرے میں بھی نمبر تین نمازے طواف اس میں بھی ہے اس میں بھی ہے نمبر چار صحیح سفہ مربہ میں چلنا وہ دونوں میں نمبر پاچ حلق یا تقصیر عام عمروں میں مرد کو اختیار وہ چاہے حلق کرے یعنے پورا سر منوائے یا تھوڑے سے بارگے اورت کے لیے تو مسئلہ عام عمرے کا اور حچ کے عمرے کا ایک تقصیر ہی کرنا لیکن آپ لوگ بھی تقصیر کریں اپنے سر کو بچائے حج میں منوانے کے لئے تو پاچوا باجب وہی تقصیر عام عمرے میں پھر دو چیزیں پڑھ جاتی ہے اگر یہ اختیار دو چیزیں آپ سمجھتے ہیں تو آپ کو حچ کے عمرے کا طریقہ بھی معلوم ہو گئے اور عام عمروں کا بھی حچ کے عمرے میں تقصیر کے بعد آپ اپنے ہوتل آجائے احرام اتر گیا عام کپڑے پہنیے خجبوہ لگائے آئینا دیکھئے زینت کریں بال بنائے کوئی حرج نہیں اگر عام عمرہ ہو تو تقصیر کے بعد دو چیزیں بڑھ گئیں توافون نسا اور نمازے توافون نسا میں نے اتوار کی تقریر میں عرص کیا کہ اسلام میں تواف جتنے بھی ہوں گے سب کا طریقہ ایک ہی تو توافون نسا صرف نیت ہوگی توافون نسا کرتا ہوں تریقہ بالکل بھی یہ جو پہلے تواف کا یعنی آپ تقصیر کرنے کے بعد مروا باڑی سے ہوتل نہیں جائیں گے وہاں پیس آپ آئیں گے حجر اصوت کی طرف اور ایک تواف یعنی ساتھ چککا تواف کا مطلب ایک چکر نہیں جب کہا جا ایک تواف کرے اس کا مطلب ساتھ چکر لگا اور مقام ایبراہیم کے پیچھے اس کی دور اکت نماز پڑھیں تو یہ عام امرہ ہوگے اور ابھی ہم لوگ اور خالی ہم لوگ نہیں ہوں قابلوں کو چھوڑ کر جو سیدہ مدینے جا رہے عزارتر یورپ امریکہ اوستیلیہ کے قابلے ہوتے باقی جتنے بھی قابلے ہی جو ابھی مققے جا رہے وہ سب ابھی امرہ کریں گے عام کیوں کہ مققے میں اس کے بغیر داخل نہیں ہو سکتا اور جتنے دن مققے میں رہیں گے پھر آپ امرے کرتے رہی یا مدینے سے واپس آئیں گے تو پھر ہم ہپنے حج کا امرہ کریں حج شروع کریں اور اس وقت ہم پراوپر مقات مزیدے شجرہ سے ایرام بانکے آئیں تو یہ جو عام امرہ ہیں اس کو میں ایک اور جملہ کہ دو جو آپ یہ کر لیں گے تو گویا حج کے امرے کی جو آپ کو خود پرکٹس ہو گئے آپ میں سے ہڑے کا پہلہ حج تو انشاء اللہ جو کاروانے ابوزر یا دوسرے کاروانوں کے اصاب سے جا رہیں حج شروع کرنے سے پہلے آپ کو آدھے حج کی اتنی زبردس پرکٹس ہو جائے کہ آپ خود کہیں گے کہ حج کا در دل سے نکل گئے تو یہ ابھی ہم لوگ جا رہے مققے میں اس کا ایک زمانی فائدہ یہ ہے کہ حج کی مجھ کوگی اور اصل فائدہ تو ہے کہ ہمیں تو اب یہ جو عام عمرے ہیں اس میں دو چیزیں بڑھ جاتی ہیں لیکن اس میں صرف نیت بدرے کی طریقے میں کوئی نئی بات نہیں ہے جس طرح آپ نے عمرے میں دوسرے باجب میں تواف کیا ہے تقصیر کے بعد ایسا ہی ایک تواف دو بارا کریں حج رہا سوا سا چکر بایا قاندہ بہت قریب نہ جائے بہت دور نہ جائے وہ ہی ساری ہے پھر نیت ہوگی تواف نیسا اور اس کی دورہ کا تماہس علبتا چو کہ یہ تواف ہے تو اس کے لیے بوزوں ضروری ہے یعنی اگر سائی کے دربیان اسی کا بوزوں پوڑھ گیا تو سائی میں بوزوں کی ضرورت نہیں اور حج بالے عمرے میں تو بس سائی کے بعد تقصیر اور اپنہ گا لیکن عام عمروں میں پھر تواف نیسا کرنا ہے اس لیے اس میں آپ کو بوزوں کرنا ہوگا تقصیر کے بعد اس کی مزید تفسیل تھوڑی دیر بعد آتی اب آئیئے ہم عصل جو موضوع ہے اس کو آگے بانا یعنی واجب حج کا طریقہ حج کے دو اس سے ہے پہلے کا نام ہے عمرے تمتو جو ہم لوگ اور نائنٹی پرسن کاروان مدینے سے اتربے کریں جب ہم عمرے تمتو کر لیں گے تو ہمارا اہرام اتر جائے گا یعنی ساری پابندیا ختم ہو جائیں گے جو اہرام کی وجہ سے آئی تھی تو چیزیں ویسے ہرامیں جھوڑ بولنا یا گالی دینا یا ہرم کی خاص توڑنا یا ہرم میں شکار کرنا وہ تو آلک بات ہے وہ تو ہرام رہی لیکن باقی پورا یہ تو ہرام کا چارٹ ہے یہ سب جائز ہو جائے گا اور اس کے بعد پھر آپ کو حج کا دوسرا حصہ کرنا جس کی دیٹ فکس ہے نوزلہج پہلے اسے کی دیٹ کوئی فکس نہیں کوئی ستمبر میں کرلے کوئی اکتوبر میں کرلے کوئی شروع اکتوبر میں کرلے کوئی جرمیا دوسرے حصہ کی دیٹ پورے دنیا کے مسلمانوں کے لیے ایک ہے نوزلہج جو باکستان میں حج دیے کے نام سے چھٹی ہوتی جو دوسرا حصہ ہے اس میں تیرہ چیزیں واجب اب آئیے اب چارٹ نمبر نوبر یعنی بکلیٹ کے پیج نمبر نوبر یہ چارٹ یہ دوسرا حصہ اس میں تیرہ چیزیں واجب مگر ان تیرہ میں سے ساتھ وہی چیزیں ہیں جو آپ عمرے میں سمجھ چکے بجیے کے ذراسی ترطیب بدل گئیے لیکن ساتھ چیزیں وہی صرف چھے نئی چیزیں نمبر ایک دوسرے حصے میں اب دوسرا اہرام پہننا مققے سے اہرام باندھنا دوسرے حصے کا اہرام مققے سے باندھا جاتا اب بہت اس میں تفسیل ہیں لیکن وہ مققے ہی میں آئیں اس کے بعد نوزلہج زوھر سے مغرب تاک آرافات میں ٹھرنا مققے کے قریب تین مہدان آرافات مصدلفہ مینہ اور یہ تین واجبات اسی طرح نمبر ایک اہرام پہننا یہ بلکل بہت طریقہ ہے اہرام کا جو آپ نے پہلے اس سے عمرے میں سونا کوئی نئی چیز نہیں سوائی نیات کیا اب یہ نیات ہی ہوگی کہ میں اپنے واجبہت کے دوسرے حصے کا اہرام پہنتا باقی وہی تلویہ وہی نیات وہی اہرام کی نماظ وہی پابندی پھر آپ آگئے مققے کے قریب تین مہدان پہلے مہدان آرافات میں وہاں پہ آپ آدھا دی زہر سے مغرب تک رہے اور چات میں بھی ہے point number 3 جیسے ہی مغری ہوئی اب آپ کو دوسرے مہدان مصدلفہ میں جانا ہے اور شب اید سورج نکلنے تک مصدلفہ میں قیام کرنا نو تاریق کو آپ آرافات میں دے اس کے بعد جو رات آئی وہ شب اید ہے سورج نکلنے تک مصدلفہ میں ٹھرنا ہے علبتہ عورتوں کو بولوں کو اور بیماروں کو یہ اجازت ہے جو وہ پورا وقت وہاں رہے رات کو کچھ دے کچھ دے کچھ دے 5 ملت 5 ملت اس مہدان میں ٹھرے اور پھر وہاں سے آگلے مہدان میں چلے رہے 3 مہدان میں مققے سے ملے سب سے چھوٹر اور کنجسٹیٹ یہ بھیچھ والا مہدان میں مصدلفہ یعنی اگر حاجی 30 لاکھ جاتے ہیں تو اس میں جگہ سے بھتس لاکھ کی یا اس سے بھی کم کی تو اس لیے شریعت نے گنجائش رکھی ہے کہ آدے مجمے کو ویسے ہی محصہ نکال دو اورتے بولے مرد بیمار مرد اورتے تو ساری اورتے شہت مرد ہوں چاہے کوئی پروبلم نہ ہو وہ 5 ملت مرد فہر کے سیدہ آگے چلے جائے تیسرے اور آخری مہدان مرد سورج نکلنے تک وہاں ٹھائریں گے تیسرے مہدان کا نام ہے منہ تو منہ کی طرف روانی اچھا منہ جو انہ اس کے اندر ہمیں تین دن رہنا اب پہلے دن تین واجبہ تو اس منہ میں چوتھا واجب ہے کہ دس تاریخ کو یعنی بقرید کے دن بڑے شیطان کو کنکر مار شیطان کو کنکر شیطان کو کنکر بہت تو بقرید کے دن جب مزالفہ سے منہ میں آئے تو بڑے شیطان ویسے تین شیطان پہلے دن صرف آخری جس کو بڑا شیطان کہتے ہیں اس کو کنکر مارنا مردوں کو بھی کنکر خود مارنا اورتوں کو بھی یہ غلط طریقہ ہے کہ اورتیں مجمے کو دیکھ کے مردوں کو اپنی طرف سے بھیج دیتی کنکر مارنے کے بعد پوربانی کرنا یہاں تک کافلے کے لوگ نہیں کرتے ہیں انتظامیہ زمداری لیتی اورتوں کے لیے یہ تکسیر ہے واجب حج میں بھی مردوں کے لیے یہ ہے کہ پورا سر منوانا پڑے گا علمتہ باز مراجے نے مردوں کو بھی اجازت دی یہ پہلے حج بالوں کی بات جو ایک حج کر چکا ان مردوں کو اجازت ہے چاہے سر منوان چاہے تکسیر کریں اور اِن چھوڑے سبال پہلی دفعہ حج کرنے والے کے لیے اٹی پرسن مراجے کہتے ہیں ان کو سر منوانا مردوں لیکن 20 برسن اجازت بھی دیتے ہیں کہ پہلی دفعہ والا بھی تھوڑے سبال کرت سکتا ہے ابھی بہت دن باخلی کہا آج بی ستمبر کہا آج 26 اکتوبر کو یہ مسئلہ بھیش آئے تفصیل بات میں آئی یہ چھے واجب ہو گئے اور پھر ایک سٹ ہے پاک واجبات کا جو عمرے میں آپ کر چکے خانہ طواف یہ حج کا طواف کہلائے گا صرف نیت کی حج طریقہ وہ ہی ہے اپنے پچھلے اتوار کو دیکھا اس کی نماز سفہ مربہ کے درمیان ساتھ چکر پھر ایک اور طواف نیت طواف نیسہ کی طریقہ وائی اور نماز اس کے بعد آخری دو واجب جس کے بعد آپ کا حکورہ ہو جائے وہ آخری دو واجب کیا ہے چاٹ کی مدد لیں کیونکہ اب بہت نیچے چلا گیا ہے معاملہ دو راتے منامق گزارنا گیارہ و بارہ دو راتے معام مہدان میں خیموں میں رہنا اور آخری واجب ہے جن راتوں میں منامق رہیں اس کے اگلے دن تینوں شایتانوں کو ترطیب کے ساتھ ساتھ اور ساتھ ساتھ کنکر مارنا ساتھ کنکر چھوٹے شایتان ساتھ کنکر درمیانی شایتان ساتھ کنکر بڑا شایتان یہ ہوگا حج کے دوسرے حصے حج جے تمتوں کے واجبات لیکن جائسا کہ میں نے کہا یا بیس اکتوبر کو انشاء اللہ مدینے سے آجائیں اس دن امارا پہلہ اس سب مکمل ہو جائیں اور پچیز کو ہاں شروع ہوگا تو جا درمیان کے چار دنے ان میں یہ سارے مسائل مققے میں زیادہ آرام سے بتائی جائیں وقت بھی ہوگا کوئی ہرتال کوئی اور ایسا مسئلہ کوئی ایسا ٹریفک جام کل پریشانی نہیں ہوگی تو وہاں پہ تفسیل آئے گی اب یہ خلاصہ میں نے بتا دی اس کے ساتھ ہی ایک مسئلہ صرف دوھراتے ہوئے مسائلے حج کو مکمل وہ یہ کہ پہلے اس سے عمرہ تمتہ کا اہرام اتھر گئے اور اس کے بعد آٹھ اسے لچ کو دوسرے اس سے کا اہرام پہننا اب ان دوھ کے درمیان کاروہ نے ابوزر کو چار دن مل رہیں وہ لوگ جو مدینے سے درہ جلدی واپس آرے ان کو آٹھ دن ملیں جو اور جلدی آرے ان کو پندرہ دن ملیں حج آپ کا چل رہا ایک حصہ ہو گیا دوسرے کا انتضاق حج چل رہا ایک حصہ کو یمرہ نہیں کر سکتے ہیں لیکن پابندیاں ساری ختم یہ اسی طرح جیسے روزے میں کہا جائے کہ روزہ رکھو ایک بجے آدھے گھنٹے کیلئے تمہارا روزہ بریگ دیا جاتا ہے آدھے گھنٹ کے بعد دوھ بارے شروع کر دیں بہا جیب لگے گا روزے میں لیکن حج میں یہی اس کے ساتھ کی مسائلے حج مکمل بے اور آپ کو ایک بریگ دیا جا رہا ہے 5 منٹ کا تاکے پاس کاروان ابو ذر سے متعلقہ دو تین مسائلے بیان کر یہ چار کہا گیا مجھے معلوم ہے اس کی درف میں آتا ہوں آپ بولنٹیرس لائیے یہ صرف آپ کی آسانی کریں میرے لے کوئی فرط نہیں پڑھتا لیکن اب جو مسائلے آرہیں وہ بڑے ہی اہم اور بہت زیادہ قبجو والے

All right good morning everyone. How's everyone doing? Good, good. Thank you so much for joining us today. I think it's gonna be tough for me to be a moderator when I'm just in awe with the people that we have here today so with no further ado I'd like to to welcome you all to Black Perspectives and Public Policy and it's hosted by the Program and Practical Policy Engagement here at Ford School obviously. My name is Yandere Calvert I'm the Community Engagement Manager for P3E and we have a great program for you today so I'd like to introduce our panelists starting first with Mayor Wimberg. Good morning everyone. My name is Patrick Wimberley and I have the honor of serving as the mayor for the great city of Inkster. When I say that Deandre gave me the call I said I had to answer as it relates to this issue. We know that we're living at a time of change and I'm looking forward to the discussion today. I don't know if you did you want me to give a little bit more background? Yeah, yeah. Okay, well native son of the city of Inkster for the most part born and raised in Inkster lived outside of Inkster probably two two two times in my lifetime for the most part. Love the city of Inkster started my career at the Inkster Public School District in 2003 and unfortunately it was closed in 2013 by the state of Michigan and I went right into public activism. During that time I had a chance to open up a federally qualified health center in the city of Inkster for people that's uninsured and underinsured to be able to you know of course provide quality health care for them and then went off into becoming the mayor pro tem the actually the youngest mayor pro tem in the city of Inkster. It's kind of like a deputy mayor from 2008 to 2012 and then came back around in 2019 and at the height of COVID became the mayor for the great city of Inkster. So I've been serving and now I'm just looking forward to those next steps and creating a better world not only for the city of Inkster but of course for the state of Michigan. Thank you. I'm Alma Wheeler-Smith. I'm delighted to be here this morning and I'm a veteran of the Michigan legislature. I worked on Senate staff for eight years with Senator Lana Pollack and then was elected to the Michigan Senate in my own right and served there for the term limited eligible eight years. After a two-year hiatus and moved on to the Michigan House served there for six years. All of that time was spent on the Appropriations Committee and on various subcommittees of that larger committee and it's been a wonderful opportunity of course to get to know my constituents and the community in which I lived. I was raised here in Ann Arbor and Ann Arbor was always home. My when I told my dad I was running for the Michigan Senate he looked at me and said I think that's a terrible mistake. He said everybody has this concept of Washtenaw County is a very liberal bastion. He said it isn't and I don't want you to get hurt. So I said I think after all of these years with you and mom I've grown a pretty thick skin so let's let's take this on. It was a challenge but I had had some pretty good footing in running for the school board and the county commission prior to running for the Michigan legislature. I have two sisters who are also in public service and so we've batted around a whole lot of conversations about how do you make change how do you affect people's opportunities and we do to this day my older sister is still serving. She is an appeals court judge in Illinois but I'm looking forward to this discussion and to learning and learning from your questions and if I really do have anything to impart I hope I can get it out of my mouth and into your ears. Well good morning everyone. My name is Dr. Theodore Jones but please call me Ted. I am a project manager with the office of the superintendent for Detroit public schools community district. In that role I work on board relations education policy for the district as well as special assignments. I also work for the office of partnerships helping out with increasing their fundraising capacity for the district. So my journey here was a pretty winding one. I actually moved up to Michigan in the third grade. I was born in Philadelphia Pennsylvania so I'll be rooting for my second favorite team. Go birds but always go lions first. And you know we moved to Texas where my dad did his residency in Dallas and then Arkansas and finally here. So I attended college in Hampton Virginia and after a while came back in 2007 to take classes at the University of Michigan but eventually I was accepted into the social work program here in 2008 and from there I was a community organizer and school social worker before working on a state house campaign for Rudy Hobbs. This was back in 2009 2010 and when he won he brought me up to work for him in the legislature so I was a legislative director for two years. I worked in government relations then I worked on a host of other campaigns and finally started my own firm doing community development as well as political consulting but I started working for the district through a fellowship program Detroit revitalization fellows and they placed me with Detroit Public Schools Community District and none of the rest is history. So I'm really happy in my role and to be able to have such a direct involvement in education policy and I look forward to this lively discussion being here with all of you. Thank you all so much. So let's let's transition right into education especially in the black community. So the cities of Inkster and Detroit have seen major changes to the education system in the last few years. In addition to COVID and I'm going to target Mayor Wimberley and Ted first and then I want to hear from your perspective from the state but in your roles how do you ensure that children are supported and educated. Mayor Wimberley. Oh boy you know number one by showing up you know and making sure that not only they have a choice of education because in the city of Inkster unfortunately we have a school of choice type of setup. Would you mind giving some context to Inkster school system? So when the city of Inkster was formed in 1964 and believe me I can get on the whole soapbox as it relates to that but unfortunately because of segregation you have the north side of Michigan Avenue and you have the south side of Michigan Avenue and if you lived on the south side of Michigan Avenue the only school that you had to go to during that time or actual district was the Easter public school district because you were African-american you couldn't necessarily go across Michigan Avenue or east of Inkster Road. So the other districts within our 6.2 square miles which is a city block in the city of Detroit is Westland Public School District. It's always been that way if you lived just north of the Inkster Recreation Complex which is just off a middleboat road you went to Cherry Hill Performing Arts and then you went to Westland Public School District. If you lived on the east side of Inkster Road you went to Dearborn Heights Public School District but most of those folks were Caucasian-Americans and the Inkster Public School District was pretty much settled for those families that worked for Ford Henry Ford and Mr. Inkster actually formulated the first high school in the state of Michigan for African-Americans and from there homeschooling became into elementary school setups. Baylor Woodson was was there and also Blanchett Middle School actually Farrell Ralph Middle School and unfortunately in 2013 the state dissolved the Inkster Public School District and now for the most part you know people you know think that there's no school district in the city of Inkster as a whole but since its inception it's always had those other entities inside of the district because of segregation so now unfortunately those kids that live in those areas have to go out and they're bust out to go to other districts but we do have a great charter school and I know that when people hear about charter schools you know they kind of tense up a little bit but it was actually formulated the charter school was formulated by a group of teachers that had lost their jobs at the Eastern Public School District and they it's American International Academy and they have a really good K-12 program so for us just the barriers overall you know transportation of course you know living in Inkster with you know the economic and social settings that happen in the city that that caused barriers so just making sure that you know we have safe routes to school transportation and then of course you know being able to provide any wraparound services through any entities that we can work with to be able to make sure that the kids get everything that they need in order to you know have a chance at life. Thank you I'm going to uh to agree with everything you just said because actually my son goes to AIA he's in the kindergarten right now so he's he's off Henry Ruff and uh when he when it's time to go to third grade he'll be at Avadip so so yeah it's it's it's it's incredible. Dr. Jones? Yes so um my daily role uh is working with uh board relations and public policy I mean um well just policy education policy so uh just breaking those down board relations so pretty much anything that the uh board of education has to vote on um whether it be contracts or new curriculum etc it's generated first by the cabinet member and their departments and then my role is to actually go through look at the board at the board item see where there are questions or inconsistencies just generally get it ready for superintendent review then once the superintendent looks at it and gives his feedback on the board item my role then is to work with the individual departments divisions to answer his questions and also just make sure that everything is accurate and and ready to go so basically when I work with board items I always ask myself how does this board item uh advance the mission of students first which is part of the tri-public schools community districts uh core values always student first so uh also my role is uh pretty much leading the policy process for our district um is really just making sure where are their gaps within um the way that we currently operate versus you know what would the ideal be so uh when you look at uh policy you want to make sure that you're not creating something that is outside of um you know the daily operations of our district uh for lack of a better term creates uh a funded mandate um something that uh the departments that have to adhere to it just cannot fold into their daily operations so you know it's really making sure that um you're being practical that um you're also having the the bottom line of how does this policy better the lives of our students but also um help our uh staff have clear guidelines uh for their daily operations in a way that's least onerous now would you mind providing a little context for the community district versus the the former district sir so uh when the district was and um I'm going to correct a popular misconception people actually believe that the district was bailed out in 2017 that actually is not true so um the taxpayers will be paying back uh what the state gave us to create um our school district to be financially solvent um so DPS is pretty much the um the debt holder for uh for uh for the for the the money that we got from the district so uh Detroit taxpayers will actually be paying till 2048 and that's when um that debt will be uh released um and then what the just what the legislature did was they also created uh Troy public schools community district um so the community district is actually the one that does the daily operations of uh teaching uh our students um and yeah so now basically the um what was your question or yeah yeah that yeah you know just to let everyone know kind of the split that happened right a few years ago and I know it was very big for the city especially um I was working for the city at the time um and when the Little Caesars Arena was coming and you know they were getting money a brownfield money and and everything like that um there was this uproar about money being taken from the students in the school so it just shows how the the students and the education issue in the city really had ramifications not only from the kids but all the way up to development in the city and just to um add something so uh our property taxes go to um uh to to fulfill the the debt um that's 2048 so we do actually get um property tax money going towards uh uh the community district that is funded through um another source uh through the state government. Thank you. Now um Alma so for those that don't know the state of Michigan plays a key role in education um from your perspective and your time in the legislature uh what statewide policies have hurt and helped uh black students in Michigan in your opinion? Well um I think one of the major responsibilities for the state in terms of public education has been funding um and we have worked um since Prop A in somebody helped me with the year 1980 Prop A 1994. 94? Yes just be yes. See you see the greatness here and there. This is awesome. 1994 um we have been working on a school aid formula that has tried to equalize the amount of money that the state invests per pupil. It has taken from 1994 to 2020 for us to hit that level where each student was getting the same amount of money from the state of Michigan which um is great but um at we need to recognize that there is something more important than equal funding there needs to be equitable funding we need to be looking at the conditions of the school districts the students that come to school what extra expenses the school district incurs in meeting the needs of low income students and their families the environment in which they live and learn when they're outside of school. So um that was a conflict in the legislature. The the term equal funding was you know everybody thought that's great but we allowed school school districts at the institution of prop A to decide if they were going to create their own local millage that would add extra support to their school districts and then we limited which school districts could exercise that option. So a certain number of larger primarily high income school districts instituted their own millage because they were complaining that they would be losing funding for their students if they didn't have that opportunity. So we continue to have unequal funding in the state of Michigan even though we have the same state formula dollars going to each student. Those kinds of mismatches need to be corrected. We need to correct them through an equity funding process. I know that in the Epsilon A school district not very far from here we have schools with laundry facilities so that kids who come with their one change of clothes for the week have an opportunity to get them washed and dried before they go back home if they've been on recess and they get muddy and wet. We have other kinds of the federal lunch program of course helps but three meals a day is critically important to students who are low income and who may not have a functioning member at home when they get home from school to fix dinner because mom may be working. So those are the kinds of concerns that school districts are faced with that as legislators we are reluctant to acknowledge and perhaps don't even understand. We also enjoy attention between the legislature and the state board of education about who's responsible for policy in education and for making curriculum decisions and for promoting education policy statewide. So there's always been a power struggle between the two institutions about that's not your bailaway and the legislature of course feels that it's empowered to do everything and steps on a lot of toes but have we gotten there? Yeah I just want to give her a hug because thank you and man you know everything that you just said is basically what happened with the Inkster public school district and you know and I'm sorry am I okay but you know I just want to you know just say this you know publicly and I say at every chance that I get I want to thank Governor Gretchen Whitmer for her leadership and of course you know the legislators that have supported her to up the funding and and get it to be like you said at least equal but we know that the equitable conversation is is a pretty tense one because in the city of Inkster as we talk about the millage we're like 72 and millage and the millage rate you know and and we couldn't necessarily do what say a canton net 40 percent at the millage rate could do you know to balance it off so by you saying that you know the discussion has to be on equitable services across the board we have to figure out how to not only awaken the people but then in turn rally the people to be able to hold our legislators accountable and I hate that when we talked about a little bit before he came in with the term limits because you have an understanding you you get it most kids in the city of Inkster that go to school every day are dealing with poverty they're dealing with you know mom dad maybe even you know a broken home as it relates to mom or dad not being in the home they're dealing with you know just the strain of their ecosystem in the city of Inkster we have a large population of low to moderate income housing as it relates to HUD services and it's like 1200 units of they used to call them project housing but now they call them you know affordable housing and everyone that's there for the most part they're in this circle in this rat race and they're trying to get out and me being from Inkster myself I actually grew up in Denby which is Denby Terrace and a lot of people know it as Little Saigon and in some circles you know it's it's tough you know being able to you know get up and go to school every day and and focus on your work when you're worried about you know eating breakfast in the morning or you know your lights may be out you know you may not have the model the water may be off you know so those things as we talk about you know what you know Governor Gretchen Whitmer is doing and she gets it and she's really pushing for that and I really thank her I thank her personally every time I see her I know she probably get get tired of me saying it but just having the courage to try to understand and put the conversation on the table for people to become responsible so I want to definitely continue that conversation with you as it relates to who should we be holding responsible you know because people can bat it back and for for all day but who's responsible like how can we get change and and and pack change that really will change people's lives because it's really about economics at the end of the day and Deondra if I can add so speaking more of the proposal a funding piece there are also some very glaring omissions so the foundational allowance that comes from proposition a that is for a general education but there are also some funding that needs to be done at the state level with regard to school facilities which I add community black communities you can see where there's less of a tax base that a lot of facilities need just a lot more tender loving care as well as the ELL students are English language learner students and and just basically more funding for at risk students students in poverty so when you do not have dedicated funding sources for issues like those then what happens is you have to use general education dollars and in education funding we call that encroachment we have to use those dollars to pay for for ELL students for upkeep to school facilities and basically you're Robin Peter to pay Paul so you actually all have answered the second question which is great expand oh go ahead I think there's a part of your question that we haven't really answered yet and that's how we how we address what the state has done wrong so let's look at the Detroit public school system the state took over the Detroit public school system probably for a period of eight to ten years and in that in the course of that time we didn't watch the process and you know we complained about a lot of cheating and a lot of fraud that was on the state's watch and the public school system lost millions of dollars that was not going to the education of the students stories in the Detroit newspapers would talk about trips to you know the Caribbean for school board meetings limousines and chauffeurs for school board members money that just sort of disappeared which became a part of the school districts debt that citizens are paying it's a situation similar to epsilon community schools it was a merger there of two school districts that were low income school districts primarily minority school districts and they are saddled with millions of dollars of debt that money is not going to the education of the children it is going to dollars are being used from the taxpayer roles to pay off that debt so instead of saying to a school district like Detroit and epsilon community you've done what we want you to do you've consolidated school districts you've taken on a new path for the students we as the state have the resources and we should be taking care of the debt that is a burden and a detraction from your ability to educate these students have tremendous needs we found that we could make some progress in the legislature when we started talking about not black communities and urban districts that have these problems but relating them also to rural districts that have the exact same issues of low funding low property value and the same kinds of needs because the parents are not as educated not as focused on their their children's education and the opportunities are not the same i can remember going to the st john's public school while i was working from senator pollack and doing a presentation on computer technology in the schools and the superintendent asked me why they should spend money on computers when these kids were just going to stay here on the farm i was so flabbergasted i couldn't answer the question for a few minutes and i i said well the reality is your kids are not going to stay here they are going to go out and compete for jobs that they will not be ready for because they do not have the basic education and technology it we need to make sure all kids have an equal chance to get a job that has value to it um we we have at this point in time in our state budget dollars that we're wondering what to do with and we're talking about putting in an economic development fund i mean get on my high horse about spending money on business you know the whole business concept in the united states is you get an idea you find funding from other businesses or other investors and you build your business it is not the job of the state to put taxpayer money into certain chosen businesses if we did it across the board and every business got a grant to do some phase of its business that would be different but we're picking winners and losers and that's not the job of the state those dollars need to be invested where our role as a state is critical and that's in education and health care and i'll get off my high horse and no you stay on right actually i'm gonna ask you to get right right back up there yeah go ahead go ahead um because how can legislation assist in access to resources capital and opportunities in black communities i'm going to start with you well it's recognizing need and opportunity when i was in the legislature i introduced a bill that would do free community college in the state of michigan because we were seeing kids who had worked hard regardless of what their educational opportunity was in their school district and were ready to go on to school but couldn't even afford the lower tuition rates at community colleges so they hit this roadblock and kids that would watch them you know working their butts off to get their education saw them just stopped cold and said well what's the point so we kept saying look we can do this easily with the resources we have to do the two years of community college it gives the kids the opportunity to take that associates degree and get a good job or to move on to a university and complete their education and get a better job or go into a profession we had a great piece of legislation that would get that done it i was in the minority in the senate and i had a couple of people come to me and say this is a great bill they had signed on to it and i said take it because a democrat can't get it passed and instead of taking mine the governor developed his own and the community colleges were saying this one works yours doesn't governor nobody will qualify for money under your bill so the intention has to be there to make things work and you can put out public policy that looks good but is totally inoperable and if what your game is is to take credit then that's the way to work but if you want to get things done that create opportunity and improve lives you got to do the heavy lifting ted in your policy journey where you know what are how can legislation assist in access to different resources in capital yeah well i think there's a you know something that can be done in the short term medium term and long term so for the short term i would say that the expansion of the michigan eitc earned income tax credit would really help with the black community at moment i believe that the legislation would be it would be a 30 percent of the federal level and that would return 163 million to wane county so that would be a substantial yeah i would also say affordable housing policy would be another area that the state could work on at present i believe the national average is there are about 73 percent of majority households on their own helms whereas it's at 43 44 percent of black homes home ownership so in detroit those those figures are actually track pretty precisely as well i think it's 77 percent majority home ownership in detroit versus 40 yeah around 43 percent of black home ownership as well and then i would also say improving public transportation would be something that could help black community as well so there was a study a while back in 2018 that showed in detroit about a third of detroiters lack an automobile and what happened was 40 percent of those respondents said that unreliable public transportation interfered with them either being able to go to an appointment or having to miss work so those would be three issues short medium long-term that yeah could really make a difference thank you and so as as a mayor of a city that uh so i think it's safe to say the founders of inkster would be kind of mad that you're uh you're sitting at the top of the city you know but you know with issues of redlining gerrymandering and transportation uh what policies have you fought for supported to combat these systemic inequalities in the city well in the city of inkster you know unfortunately as you know just the council and locals can do so much but it really is at the state level and the federal level so we we always as much as we possibly can you know look and see where we can help and then of course write our legislators sit down with our latest legislators let them know exactly what it is that um we're looking for like for for instance um last year um something happened in the state of michigan and i can get off real deep off into it but i want to keep it as simple as possible um redistricting happen in the state and unfortunately cities like detrait um plain easter black and brown cities we lost representation from people that look like us so for me it's been one of those things that okay well how did it even start what did the conversation start and then in between um who can we work with to make sure that you know we have the proper representation um not saying that you know everyone has to look like me or even think like me but at the same time understand what i'm going through you know i have the have compassion and and understand that you know it's needs that you may have grown up a little bit different and i think you know both the people that are sitting on the diocese with me they they understand and they get it that it's it's tough you know it it is man it's it's really tough when you look at you know gerrymandering um it's been happening red lining has been happening um for for years and years and systemic racism unfortunately has just created this system of injustice that you know most people can't get out in their trap then so just being vocal as much as we possibly can but also to not just talking about it actually figuring out a plan to actually work to plan and and do the work to try to get some things um across the line across the finish line now the one thing that i can't say has happened uh and i believe it was last year um as it relates to the term limits being extended a little bit is um as it relates to state state representatives and state senators being able to hold their place a while longer instead of you know having to basically you know once they're elected they they they learn in the job and then the next thing you know they're running for office again and you know now it gives us a little bit more time to actually work and cultivate those relationships to where those people hopefully they can get it you know i would like to create a show where where i would take any person that wants to be in a political realm and they have to live first in a black and brown community to you know really understand you know what's what what the needs are so um you know just really just for me again being being as vocal as possible um working with our state legislators to to try to correct some of the things that have been happening systemically for over 300 years in our country so it's gonna be it's gonna be tough but i think that um the next generation by having these discussions especially in places like this i think that uh we'll be able to make some great segue great uh now ted how have i'm i'm trying to i'm trying to reframe this because you all are having such a great conversation this piece of paper is almost useless at this point which is a great problem to have um but issues like you know redlining gerrymandering you mentioned transportation um how much do you see external factors impacting the children within the classroom um you know maybe hearing from teachers or from a policy perspective yeah well i mean i would say that covid um gave a very stark uh put it put the issue in very stark relief um you know at the very beginning of the pandemic um one of the major issues that we had to combat with uh was now that the schools were no longer open how do we make sure that our students are able to get the meals that they need on a daily basis that that they really do depend on so what we did was we uh created a grab and go a grab and go program where we um started off first at at um all the schools and then really started going to a hub um type of approach where uh district families can just come um they can pick up meals uh for not just their student but but for all the children um in the in the uh in the household and they can pick up you know several days worth of meals so you know one would just be in food insecurity is something that we have to deal with um i would i would say also another thing that we have to deal with uh not just in Detroit Public Schools Community District but um for black communities in general is a lack of um of lack of access to advanced placement um programming so you know i i believe that um that the last i believe was in 2019 um 2020 that there was about 77 percent uh i'm sorry about 110 thousand uh students who took the AP test um 77 percent of them were a majority students uh four percent just over four percent were black students and just over six percent were um Hispanic students so there are um still um uh niggling uh disparities within the education system that we have to deal with just on um education programming itself. Dr. too if i can just add to that you know during COVID technology and and having access to the internet was a big thing for um you know black and brown communities because of the disparities and as it relates to economic you know economics within the community so you know even with that now um being one of the major issues as it as it changed the way all of us um do business and we we interact with each other as it relates to um the internet so like we would have had this on zoom last year possibly right but most of our kids in the eastern public schools in that whole area and and i call it eastern public steel because it is what it is but um they had major challenges getting on the internet because they couldn't afford it they couldn't afford the high-speed internet that was required so um seeing the state government actually putting um and the federal government actually putting some monies towards that i think it's going to really help um close that gap as it relates to the digital divide for black brown communities and rural communities also absolutely so alma you said uh you mentioned that there was a bill that you had to pass off because you didn't think that you know you'd be able to uh get the support from it but what are some of the bills that you were able to pass or able to support in the legislature that combated some systemic issues well um i don't know i always went for the esoteric crazy stuff um like universal health care so um i started i introduced legislation to um eliminate lead poisoning in the housing and that one was taken and passed by my majority team which was great um i was happy to hand off um we did i did a lot of work uh because i was on the appropriations committee we did a lot of policy through amendments to other bills because you weren't on those committees where you had deep involvement in structuring them so um i did a lot of amendment work on some policy pieces but in appropriations i was able to do quite a bit of funding direction um toward environmental justice issues toward health care um and education so you know if i could i passed a lot of pieces of legislation but i didn't look back after all these years to see what they were um but with with appropriations they are one-year bills um but you have an opportunity to direct to direct spending and that is such a key um portion of the power of legislature um for um folks who may not be aware the congress has returned to earmarking and building a relationship with your legislator your congress person is critically important to getting your hands on dollars for nonprofits and government projects in your communities i was very concerned and headed the corrections subcommittee of the appropriations committee both in the house and senate while i was vice chair of the senate um but i worked with probably the most conservative senator in the legislature um who was the chair of the senate appropriations subcommittee on corrections when i was in the house to create a reentry program incarceration and um the sort of school to prison pipeline is of critical interest to the black community while we aren't we don't think monolithically we certainly have issues that we want addressed we may have different ways to get there and i found in working with um my republican counterpart in the senate on corrections issues he was ultra conservative and here i am a radical liberal but we wanted some of the same goals and you just had to create a language that could get you there um so it was a matter of listening and understanding where he was coming from that built that line of communication where we could create a reentry program so that people who were released had an opportunity for housing work and not going back that's one of the major problems with our correction system we spend billions of dollars each year trying to help people get on a different path but we do nothing to help them put their foot on the path when they're outside of the prison system so a reentry program was established and i take a lot of credit for that um working with alan crops i think um we did a decent job um the and and that's one of the major issues for a black communities too is um overpolicing of some of the communities finding children being criminalized in school for what used to be just bad kid behavior um the iep yes yeah so you know it's we the black community is intensely interested there was a poll done of black voters at the end of the just before the midterm elections last year and it showed that yes we were concerned about economic issues we were concerned about inflation and high prices but we were equally concerned about social issues of health care covid would have been far worse for our community if we had not had the affordable care and insurance but it was still horrible because of systemic things like gerrymandering the inability for black families to gain wealth and create greater opportunities for their kids and pass that on so i'm kind of meandering so i'm going to no so this is this is a great way to end with our our formal questions um you know in the black community we're familiar with opacro from uh from color purple all my life i had to fight you know we we we know that and that's something that we can joke about but it's real um and you know this one thing that is great about this conversation uh and seeing you all just riff off each other not only is it fantastic from a policy perspective and a professional perspective but we can get in that barbershop talk and that you know those those talks that are that are real and unapologetically black so from from that perspective from you know from policy and community how do we keep fighting in a country uh that was built by us but that wasn't built for us in your opinion and i'll start with you know again i will just go back to continue to have in these conversations and and really holding people accountable in in their positions as the mayor for the the great city of inkster and i love the city of inkster you know i tell my people all the time listen hold me accountable make sure that i'm responsible you know for the position that you put me in and we have to do the same thing for you know just conversations and with our legislators you know holding them accountable you know and saying to them what our needs are you know i don't think most of the folks even know about the statistics that you just you know gave off as it relates to you know legislators is there now you know unfortunately but you know truly putting it right in their face not only fighting but educating people and giving up an opportunity to hopefully shine ultimately yeah and which is something we we were discussing before this it's it's tough especially if you are you know the only black face in a white space or you know they say that squeaky will gets the oil but if you're the only one that looks like you know looks like you and representing your communities how do you do that in a manner that just doesn't get drowned out or that isn't just kind of pacified you know so it raises so many questions but you're you're completely right you have to keep on you have to keep on pushing you have to you have to you know again and understand this i mean you know america wouldn't be the place that it is today if we didn't have help from our brothers and sisters that don't necessarily look like us it's people that you know again that want to do the right thing that's a human thing so really finding those people and then making as much noise as you can together um and and and i think that's ultimately what it is keep talking and the wonderful thing about social media and i know we can talk about all the negatives with social media is that everyone has a platform and if we continue to talk about the issues make sure that the issues have um an actual charge with the issue not just you know this is my issue but how do we solve it how do we work on becoming better human beings ultimately i think that's that's what we should be doing great start Alma well i think i learned that you keep on keeping on um it's a persistence and a resilience my dad was the first black faculty member at the university of michigan um he remained an assistant professor until a few years before his retirement because he kept rocking the boat at the university and in the community and in the state he was engaged in civil rights work and so was my mom and they were out there pushing this liberal community to bring black folks on to those public schools teaching staff there wasn't one when i was growing up to make sure that if you went into a restaurant the table that you were assigned wasn't near the bathroom or the entrance exit door so the rest the food area to make sure that kids saw administrators in the school that looked like us to make sure that we had opportunities for housing wherever in the city we wanted to live um that the black areas of the city were not the only place a black family could have a house um that was supported by real estate agreements with the realtors and by the banks not lending i think everybody's pretty aware of that um but it's that constant move forward and being patient with a step at a time i am not a patient person but you've got to understand that it isn't going to happen your way you've got to bring a whole lot of people along with you who are resistant who aren't understanding who may in their hearts want to believe but um it's not their experience so they they have trouble understanding that you're not making excuses you're explaining what life has been like and what that means over a continuum of yours so persistence finding people who will work with you um my parents couldn't have made change in Ann Arbor if they hadn't had a whole lot of white folks understanding the issues and working with them to create a housing ordinance um to to break down the barriers in education to create opportunities for their kids and others so we keep on keeping on absolutely i have little add so i i i agree with both my fellow panel members here we need to be persistent we have to have relentless conversations about the effect still of racial discrimination and discriminatory policy on the black community i would say also i i think for instance with regard to criminal justice um and and police and reform um you know i i think it was the advent of the cell phone camera that really brought into stark relief uh what was going on in the black community with regard to police encounters and and unarmed black people being disproportionately exposed to police brutality so i wonder what are the next things that we can bring that type of spotlight to within the black community to to really you know open people's eyes up and make sure that we can attack issues such as the need for affordable housing the need for you know equitable funding in education and other uh issues with regard to access to resources thank you so much so now we're going to open it up to questions from our audience uh we did have one that was a part of the rcp so while everyone's thinking of their questions i will pose this to anyone that'd like to answer but do you think effective change comes from federal policy or local policy i think it i think it comes from all it comes from three levels the local level cities townships um where people think creatively about how to resolve a problem and if they haven't been limited in their opportunity to solve that problem by the state legislature they're able to create a pilot program that may work very well for them and be replicable in other communities we also have an opportunity at the state level for that same kind of bought and policy development the federal government has its role i think there are places where universal opportunity is important and that's where federal policy plays a very important role transportation is a great example you know the federal highways that allow us all to move across the country but it's in states where a transportation department can say we've got electric vehicles can we actually use our freeways to create energy to power those vehicles so that we don't have to have a hundred thousand charging stations they're charged as they're driving but the dollars that can be spent on some of our very heavy lifting projects have to come from those that have the dollars and that is often most often the federal government we've got some real infrastructure problems that you know the new infrastructure bill that was passed last year can certainly help with but when you talk about the billions of dollars it's going to cost to put a new water system in for Flint and Benton Harbor that's not something the states can take on on their own and it certainly isn't something that angster can afford so we each have our role and sometimes it's the little guy that pushes the state and that's when the legislature sometimes gets nose out of joint and passes a law that says local units of government cannot do a b and c you know but we all have a role we learn from some of the programs that are started at the very smallest local level thank you for that okay do we have any questions we have a microphone we can hand off to you so we're starting over here and then see you live you and if you all like to introduce yourself your name your your program and policy interests that would be great yeah hi my name is Tania Harris I'm a second year MPP student and my policy concentration is mostly social policy um Dr. Jones I also went to college in Hampton Virginia so I'm wondering if you're a pirate as well absolutely and me too um but my question is along the education basis I was just wondering if you guys can talk about how much you've interacted with or like the current debate on whether or not critical race theory should be included in what we're teaching in schools or not and like how you create policy that combats that well I will um actually point to Detroit public schools community district I believe it was in 2018 that we put out a resolution stating that we were an anti-racist district so it is things like that that school districts can do that you know start at the board the board of education level and the way that that work kind of redounds to you know all aspects of what we do is we're very intentional in our curriculum about you know showing African American history showing you know really putting it into our our daily curriculum and how we teach history so I would say that would be the most you know learning example. Thank you, Olivia. Great um hi my name is Olivia Badan I am a second year MPP student here at the Ford School um my focus is on economic mobility and workforce development and my question um has less to do with policy and more to do with just um I guess your careers and you talked about like the persistence and having these conversations even maybe when you are the only voice in the room and as someone that's about to re-enter the workforce after being here in someone of a bubble um how do you with that persistence and with the care that I can tell that you all have for your communities how do you take care of yourself as Black public servants because that's something that you know we don't have a class here at the Ford School about like taking care of yourself in public service and and that's something that I think a lot of us are running into right now the burnout of it all. Well I'll try to answer that. When you're passionate about something I mean you know it's just that human nature in you to always want to go and always want to work and I think that was one of the things earlier on for me as I became the mayor of the great city of Inkster you know it was like I was burning the candle with both ends and really not getting things done in in the whole you know um I was doing a lot of things but I had to refocus myself and you know say okay these are my priorities and when you start to work on your priorities and then you bring a long help from the people that's you know passionate like you and of course in my position I'm you know the CEO of the organization you know I hired the people to actually assist me and help me and carry that load but to to take care of yourself is if you're not if you're not good nobody else is good you know especially in my position is the mayor of the city of Inkster you know it's for me it's the grassroots approach but at the same time knowing that you know family first well God for me first um family and then you know community is all part of that and when I look at the community it is family so um for me in my position that's pretty much how to you know I go about it for the most part but I'm always somebody's always telling me stop me are you doing too much deal you know but you know when you have passion it's just what it is my knee jerk answer would have been I don't take care of myself but the hardest thing I had to learn was to say no because you can spread yourself like peanut butter and then you become ineffective because you are exhausted I found that being around people who have a good sense of humor is worth more than sleep so I I've tried to find people who care a lot about policy but can also sit there and laugh at the crazy things you've gone through to make a little tiny bit of progress you know because it is humorous if you otherwise you cry spend your life crying so um it's family is important because I've got family members who are involved in public service but who see the humor every day of what they do before she became a judge my sister worked in a model cities legal service and I mean they would have people come in off the street who were just out of their minds and want them to solve all kinds of problems through the legal system and the problems were definitely not going to court so um I always told her she should write a book her secretary had a phrase what makes them go out to lunch and never come home it's like but you have to find the humor in your life because it is the thing I think that will sustain you well one tangible thing I did was I bought a Peloton yep so you sound like my daughter so I'm a big proponent of you know working out and for last month or so I've been trying to eat healthier so you know taking care of my body but also really making sure that you know not taking on too much too many things so knowing when to say no to new projects and of course you know family time and I also have a girlfriend who has a two-year-old son so having some time with them as well just yeah really helps with guarding against burnout thank you oh over here first hi um thanks for being here um I'm Hailey I'm a dual degree in the policy school in the business school um and I came in late after work so if you already covered this skip my question but um when I was an undergrad at Michigan the black student population was six percent and 10 years later it's now four percent and we talk about the increase in scholarship availability for students in Detroit and for black students coming to Michigan but clearly that doesn't address so many of the systemic problems that are you know um causing this discrepancy so I was just wondering if you guys could speak to you know what might be going on here and how can we as students better hold the university accountable the cold the cold yeah the weather yeah for sure it's a great question um I affordability is an issue the university over the past seven years has worked to create scholarship opportunities in Detroit in Ypsilanti um but those opportunities importantly began with young students so it's going to take a while before you see the students in those paths arrive at the institution but having affordability I don't know if you were here when I talked about my legislation to create free tuition for community colleges we in working through that bill we were talking with the senate fiscal agency and one of the economists said you know it's just a few million dollars more to do the full ride for a four-year institution because the federal government picks up most of the money through Pell grants and there are other sort of universally applicable fellowships and scholarships so the state would have been paying approximately 25 percent of the cost of tuition here at the University of Michigan for four years for students I think being bold in our public policy that makes opportunity universally available is something that is achievable and desirable I had a lot of people say well the kids won't work hard they won't learn if it's given to them and maybe for some that would be true you don't always value what's free but I think it's the way we teach people about how critical education is to their own development that makes it important not how much it costs and not the job you might get afterwards but the value of learning and the creativity it generates and you to solve problems and help other folks so I'm a big proponent of free education all the way through I remember Morris Hood when he was in the legislature said to the University of Michigan if your student population doesn't look like the population in the state of Michigan I will cut your funding for a long time that meant something to the University because the state share of funding to the institution was significant it is no longer significant to the University of Michigan so that threat is an empty threat and the desire for diversity has to come from the institution itself I think it's there I think we just have to be more creative about how we give kids the belief that if they work hard in school that opportunity to go to a university is available not just a hope I think I'd like to mention we'd be remiss if we didn't think kind of socially also and think about imposterization you know the University of Michigan you know that there's so much prestige from athletics to academics and there may be people from you know from different communities I can't go there like I'm not smart enough to go here I've worked here for five years and I still feel that you know working here shoot I spoke to students a couple weeks ago and I emailed my colleague I'm like did I do a good job like I feel like I I wasn't polished enough even though I've been doing this for how long I'm cool enough to get the mayor of Inkster to text me you know so but that's you know from a from a student perspective I think maybe the university can can kind of open that and students can open that too to let people know that you know whatever you're looking for here you can find and there is a space for you and you know there are opportunities to to get you in the space too because you deserve to be here you know just as much as anyone else so actually if I could add to that also so with affirmative action being disallowed I would also say you know university should explore a more economically based model for for for this action not based on race but on the on income of a family as well and you know that will capture more minority students but also just students in general who whose families might be unable to to board University of Michigan Education so that's a great model and if I could just add to that more on the social side of it you know and I really appreciate what you said because it's part of that but it's also too that you know in most black and brown communities about 50 percent of the kids read at a ninth grade level when they graduate from high school so you know being prepared and making sure that again we have those wraparound services because you know again you don't know what the situation may be at home so when a kid gets to school and you know that may be their only meal that they've had and understanding to mental health issues across the board and understanding that talking to a therapist is you know is out of reach for a lot of African Americans to be able to you know actually you know if they're going through something at home you know not being able to talk to someone you know so we talk about you know the economic barriers mental health barriers you know the wraparound services to make sure you know the kids are being tutored properly you know and being and in getting that curriculum right in their face in the ninth grade you know the one thing that I loved about the Eastern Public School District is that we had a dual enrollment program where the kids went to college in the day and at the same time they went to the high school and they were exposed to to that you know but you know of course that that went away and it's in the Westland Public School District and it's great and the Dearborn High School District is great but however what happens when they leave school and they just don't feel prepared you know they're not ready for the University of Michigan you know we you know excellence is achievable if you have the tools to be able to apply yourself so I think that's the biggest part of it absolutely I think uh I think my my clock is ticking we have one more how many more questions do we have just I can also like wait until after no no no um oh if you're the last one then we can end on that yeah uh thank you all for such a refreshing event my name is Sam Owusu I am a staff member here I work at one of the research centers the education policy initiative we sort of leverage administrative data and mixed method approaches to do research for social progress primarily in Michigan a lot of our studies are based in Michigan so a lot of contact with the Detroit Public School Community District uh my question is sort of uh and I also wanted to mention I'm so glad someone mentioned the issue of terminal limits it makes my life as a researcher hectic because there's a new administrative priority and new new people to talk to all the time right um but my question sort of relates to the idea of relationship building for policymaking um I guess how do you all approach building and maintaining strong relationships with policymakers advocacy networks even the research community I mean we can think about this as like you know it's not only a triangle between bureaucrats policymakers and advocacy or it's also sort of like a square where the research organizations are involved community activists are involved so how do you manage sort of building those connections and maintaining those connections to build effective policy particularly for marginalized groups what was a big joke uh with Clinton something about the Clinton Rolodex that he started when he was age seven I think I think we all do that as as policymakers you start with your friends in high school and you say well that person went to you know some institution and studied public policy and their area of expertise was environmental justice I'm calling them if they don't know the answer maybe they know someone who knows the answer or has a public policy interest or they'll know someone so it's starting with a tree when you were in elementary school there was the phone tree for the bus when you're in public policy there's the phone tree for an issue you call the agency that works on that issue and you say I need so and so to give me advice on this particular component of the issue I'm working on it's and then because you've stolen their ideas if you will and put them in the legislation that you're drafting you stay in touch to let them know what's happened but it's looking beyond the specific issue area to things that are tangential to it I worked on ending corporal punishment in the public schools here in michigan when I was working for lanapolic she was the senator that preceded me and you know we were talking originally to educators and then we said well wait a minute there are other people who are concerned about this we need to contact parent teacher organizations we need to contact mental health workers we need to be in touch with people who do after-school care who can bring different perspectives to bear on this public policy issue that most people wouldn't think they even thought about but they have a lot to contribute and they have a lot of context they know other legislators that they can talk to and build that support for the policy um through their network so the more networks you can get engaged on a public policy issue the

The majority of Indonesia's population is Muslim, including over 13,000 people with hearing impairments. To assist these individuals during congregational prayers, researchers have developed a gyroscope bracelet that helps them follow the instructions of the imams. The bracelet worn by the Imam sends a code in the form of a change in angle to the bracelet's worn by the deaf congregants. This code is detected by the deaf congregants bracelet, which then notifies them of any changes in prayer position via a different vibration. After experimenting with 30 people, the success rate was found to be 84%. This article was authored by Harry Yachty Harry Yachty, Hanifah Rami Fadrin, and Wisna Kartika.

Well, everybody's coughing, hacking, dying. Are we good? Yes. Great. All right, we'll call the meeting to order. Can we do a roll call, please? Yes. Council Member Fleming. Here. Council Member Natalie Rogers. I'm sorry, excuse me, Mayor Natalie Rogers. And Council Member Chris Rogers. And I'm here. Great. We have no minutes to approve today. Let's go to public comment for non-agenda items. There's two ways to provide public comment in our subcommittee. One will be on zoom. If you hit the raise hand feature, the other will be here in person. Let's start here in person and see, sir, do you want to make public comment for non-agenda items? No. Okay. Great. Do we have anybody on zoom? We have no one on zoom. Excellent. We'll keep moving then. Let's go to our department reports. And we currently have no department reports today. Okay. Jason, you don't want to make anything up and just. Yeah. I think the teams are working hard to try to figure out how we're going to incorporate new council goal into our world. So you're going to start to see more and more working in this way this direction. Perfect. All right. Thank you. Let's go to a new business then item 5.1. I'll turn it over to Tasha. And today for 5.1 we have electric vehicle infrastructure master plan presented by Peter Martin, deputy director of water resources. Great. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, chair Rogers and members of subcommittee. Very pleased to present this item to you today. As the EV market is rapidly changing and emerging and growing. We're going to start planning a lot this year on how we're going to start complying with regulations and meeting a lot of regulations. So some of the city objectives and drivers behind this are the fact that it's been added into the council work plan for this upcoming fiscal year. And that was to initiate the development of a citywide fleet electrification master plan. Recently, just here in May of this year, the California air resources board adopted the advanced clean infrastructure plan. And that changes rapidly requires the purchase of electric vehicles or zero emission vehicles for fleets in small municipalities and other public agencies throughout the state. And then of course there's a variety of sustainability initiatives and policies and net zero emission goals that the council has and these are all going towards achieving that as well. So a little background on the advanced clean fleets regulation was adopted by the California Air Resources Board in May of this year. Local governments, including the city of Santa Rosa, are required to show progress on a transition to zero emission vehicles for both medium and heavy duty vehicles and on road vehicles that are over 8500 pounds. And that has some timelines associated with it by 2024. 50% of the vehicles are supposed to be zero emission vehicles and by 2027 100%. So it's allowing for some time for the market to emerge for those types of applications. And so we're trying to get ahead of that. There will be some exemptions and alternative pathways for which government agencies like city Santa Rosa can comply with this. But really the rubber hits the road in January of 2025 when we have to start reporting on our progress on this particular role. So in general, the California Air Resources Board estimates that of the nearly 1.8 million medium and heavy duty vehicles that are on the road right now, approximately 532,000 are subject to the advanced clean fleets rule and therefore will be need to be replaced. So, you know, obviously this helps the state to achieve reduced emissions and also achieve public health goals as well as climate goals for the state. And that starts with local governments and public agencies. So in general, we are scoping right now and EV infrastructure master plan. And with that, there will be some goals associated with that. And that will be a roadmap to compliance with the advanced clean fleets rule. As well as a strategy for continuity of operations and making sure that city services continue uninterrupted. And also establishing a priority of integration with all the facilities throughout the city that we own. So I'm going to talk a little bit today about a high level sort of an, you know, overview of the scope of the project. I won't get into the nitty gritty details, but just generally just cover what we anticipate will have a consultant to. And that really begins with the fleet electrification market analysis. We made some investment as a city over the past few years in telematics of all the different vehicles. So we'll be able to pull that data, really understand how a vehicle is used. What its demands are, what it does, that data is available so we can hand it over. And that will cover light, medium and heavy duty vehicles. And also we'll have an opportunity to look at vehicle and charging technology strategies associated with that data. So we'll take a look at the facilities assessments, understand what type of charging infrastructure is needed if they need fast charging or just kind of a slower demand for charging. And that will include some load calculations and high level cost for improvements to the different facilities throughout the city. So I created this diagram to just kind of show you how that analysis would occur. And really you're going to ask four basic questions. It really is how does that vehicle function? What's its range and type of usage? When is it used? Is it kind of only used intermittently or get very heavy duty usage? And where does it reside? Where is its home base, right? And so with that, we'll be able to take a look at the vehicle type and the future of migrant availability. There are a lot of folks out there that are tracking the markets and availability of the different applications for fleet vehicles and then move on to different facilities assessments, understanding the electrical systems of the various places where our fleet resides. So and then we can move further on and create a charger deployment strategy and prioritization, determine financial and funding opportunities for us to move forward and consideration for integration with power, local power suppliers. So we'll work hand in hand with PG&E and snow and clean power in that regard. And then a second component that we're taking a look at is really, you know, obviously our operations can't cease as a result of interruptions of power and other emergencies. So there might be an opportunity here to take a look at the off-grid renewable and distributed energy potential and opportunities that exist at city facilities. We have some of these already done at a high level, but we can continue to see how that can integrate with charging infrastructure. And then that includes energy storage solutions, obviously continuing to make sure that we have the backup generation needs ensured and really just understanding the low considerations of new charging infrastructure for all these home facilities. And then of course create a plan for phasing in all these charging infrastructures, their capital improvements and the financial strategies associated with that. And then finally, it's important that we take a look at private development policies as well as part of this. It's very likely that we'll start to see private entities interested in taking a look at using the city-owned facilities or right-of-way to incorporate public charging as well. And so for this council obviously or the city in general, it's important to understand the pathway for that, including standards, different incentive programs or different fee options to make sure that there's an opportunity to integrate that too going forward. And then of course just at a high level cover a couple other deliverables, which is ensuring that we have some scope for some public meetings, incorporating feedback from key stakeholders as well. And then meeting and coordinating with RCPA, Sonoma Clean Power, PG&E and others, because we're obviously going to have some overlapping interest as everyone is taking a look at this as well. And then of course some study sessions and other presentations to the city council and subcommittees. So you might be asking yourself, what about public charging facilities? So I do want to tell you that the parking division has secured grant funding from the Metro Transportation Commission. They're going to be taking a look at the parking fleet's needs as well as all our parking infrastructure or public parking infrastructure and the garages, other facilities and kind of taking a look at what it would take to meet the public's needs as well at our city-owned facilities too. So we'll have parking come back at a later time and present to this subcommittee talk a little bit more about that. I do want to tell you that we have identified a funding source for at least, we hope for a substantial part of this study. The Department of Energy has released, it's been probably the first time in about 10 years, some funding into the Energy Efficiency Conservation Block Program. So they're block grants. The city of Santa Rosa has a city with a population of 150,000 has an appropriation of $210,000. So that money can be used for a project that meets certain criteria of their choice. So this is one of those projects that fits very nicely with that. And then of course any additional funding would be provided by the different apartments from the operational apartments and their fleet needs as well. So with that, I'm happy to take any feedback or any questions you may have. All right. I'll start with some questions. Oh, just some of the questions that I've been asked about installation is how are the installers trained and do we have enough in-house installers to install around the city when we do want to go larger or have additional charging stations. So I think those are some of the questions. Sure. I'll take a crack at it. I'm going to look over it. This is the manager nut and maybe you can fill anything I may miss, but there are standards for the training programs for electric vehicle infrastructure and similar to other, you know, electrical electrician type certifications and things like that. I know that we are putting those into any type of bid documents now and moving forward for large EV infrastructure projects. And then my understanding is we're taking a look at having staff also receive some of those certifications to as well as those that would be overseeing that work. And actually, in fact, we have already half of our electrical staff is certified. The other half is in the process of being certified. So by the end of the calendar year, we should be fully certified, which far exceeds the state requirement of having one identified in the electronic section. Our intent was we didn't want to care which of our electricians was doing the work. And as Peter said, every time we do contract the EVIT component will be an aspect of any bid document. Great. And how many electricians do we have? Six, I think. Yeah. This is the EVITP issue. And I know there's been questions about who, where you conduct the training and the state doesn't have differentiation between which certification provider you go to. It's just being able to obtain a certificate. So we feel very confident that our staff is well trained. They've actually been doing these installations for a decade. So we feel pretty confident. Any other questions? Thank you so much. This is great stuff. I'm curious to know about the public, the public program. The reason why I'm asking about that now, I know you said it'll come back is that I see it as an excellent opportunity to achieve our climate goals when I'm sure private operators are going to be getting in this game as well, because we here can control that our sources evergreen. And so it does really achieve that in a pretty sweeping way that private groups may not, they may just go for the least expensive form of energy when they are operating charging stations. So I'm just curious to know if you have any preliminary idea around timelines for that. And also if you're already in talks with PG&E about new draws on usage and if there are any hiccups in the time to electrify new uses. So those are two very good questions. So yeah, I think Chad will be coming back and talking a little bit about some of the grant opportunity has and what they've scoped out to meet the needs with the garages and other parking infrastructure. In terms of, sorry, the second question was an answer for that. Let me think about it. Let me see. Okay. So, sorry. Can you just reset it? What I'm just wondering is, you know, when I talk to folks who are in the business of getting new uses, hope not permitted by PG&E, I'm hearing about. I'm hearing about. Yeah. So yes, there. We would expect that or if we as a municipality would get some sort of expedited. Yeah, you're very right. So yeah, my understanding is there's nine months to 12 months sort of lead times for them even kind of getting things into the queue with these. So that's why it's really important that we do these types of master plans because those were serious. But PG&E is rapidly advancing sort of this five year timeline for a lot of municipalities like ours where we can start to hand over a plan and a prioritization of facilities that need to be electrified. Because obviously there's improvements that we have to do on our side of the meter, but the same goes for PG&E. So I think to show them that we're serious having these plans in place and showing them kind of where we view the priority of these improvements going in, they can start to mobilize. But yes, there is definitely a rush to start to get PG&E to do some work on their side of the meter as well. Great. The last question is just around cost in terms of the cost per mile in terms of fuel from battery operated vehicles using our own electrification versus, you know, the fossil fuels. Is there a significant differential? Not that I would sway my opinion on it, but I'm just curious to know when I do get asked the question. I am not an expert in that, but I could definitely get back as we move further along kind of what we anticipate in terms of the fleet improvements. There are some folks that have shown through maintenance costs and things like that. There's a substantial savings. I don't know what that's broken down into per mile, but we can definitely come back with something like that. Thanks a bunch. Yeah. In terms of getting PG&E to prioritize, the running cost is apparently a hundred million. At least that's what they told San Jose. So, okay. So if we just come up with a hundred million, I think we're good on the electrification. My question revolved around one, who do we anticipate is doing this study? Are we doing that internal? Are we anticipating bringing on a contractor? Yes. So we are preparing to go out with an RFP very shortly here. It's basically been prepared to go out and we've worked with purchasing to schedule that. So we will be getting some outside help from a consultant. It's going to be a project that is a joint project right now between water department staff and transportation public works with obviously others contributing as well. So it's a citywide project, despite me being here as the water department representative. So we'll be pulling in, you know, obviously the fleet folks, they're going to be integral to this because they have a good understanding of, you know, the applications and citing different vehicles throughout the city too as well. And I bet our CPA would be interested in partnering if there was a partnership opportunity there as well. Yeah. We did include so far in the scope, several meetings to meet with folks like our CPA. I do believe they're, you know, we don't want to be doing any duplicate of efforts at a minimum. But for sure, I think there's some, some huge opportunities to make sure that we're, you know, working jointly on this. Cool. Do we have any type of an analysis yet on how many of our fleet vehicles meet the medium in high. Heavy weight. Yeah. I think in total, I think the fleet is somewhere around 800 to 850 different assets. But I'm not sure which ones fall into that above 800, 8500 pound gross vehicle weight. And we only have to account for them. I'd love us to account for them all right away. Right. But when we replace them and purchase and do one, there isn't a phasing out component to that bill. Is that right? So my understanding is that beginning on that date, any thought, you know, I guess gas or diesel powered vehicle, there's a 800,000 mile or 18 year timeline that you can still use that vehicle. But yeah, it, if it hits 800,000 years, 13 is the number. So, so there is a, there is an overlap there. So any vehicle that exists can still continue to operate, but that vehicle does need to be replaced within that timeframe. So, you know, obviously. I don't have a great picture of the age of the fleet right now, but I'm assuming that just in the first few years here, you know, the light duty vehicles will, you know, it was a no brainer, but over time I think as the, they become more available, I think you'll see a pretty rapid deployment. And do we think, you know, I know I would assume fire trucks fall into the heavy category, but I don't believe there's a viable option that's out there right now for an all electric or zero emission fire truck. Are there exemptions that are built into the state law for that? Yes. A certain emergency vehicles do have exemptions. You're accurate in that there's not application work and be, you know, ready, you know, 24 hours a day at a moment's notice. But we will make sure that we incorporate an understanding of that as part of the study. We've talked about that just, you know, as we evaluate the market that yes, these may not, there may not be a technology available, but that doesn't preclude it from being an option later as well. Cool. And then last one, I was having a conversation with the mayor on the East coast who said what they're really trying to partner with right now is some form of compounding of their charging infrastructure by having battery backups and battery accessible that they charge during the day while the vehicle is being used. And then in the evening, they can draw off the battery and draw off of the infrastructure they put in. So hopefully we'll consider that level of redundancy to just try to move a little bit faster as well. And that's more resilient as well. Yep. Cool. Let's go to public comment on this item. If you'd like to provide comments, go ahead. You'll have three minutes. I just have a question and it's a probably appropriate, maybe not appropriate here, but I'm going to ask it anyway. It's just a personal wonder if I project that EVs will surpass in sales the implementation of charging stations. So it's going to be a mad scramble, you know, eventually to try to get your car. I was wondering if in the planning of these stations to charge, could we put 110 or maybe that's already in force because a little car we have, I don't have to sit there and charge it for 20 minutes or have an hour. I can just, what do you call it? Our present vehicles tapping off or, you know, all we would need was a little time. And maybe there's going to be enough of us out there that when you go there and they're all busy, just plug it into 110 and go shopping, tap it off or whatever you call that. And then go home or go from there. So it's just a question. Yeah. You know, the good news is that we do have some electric vehicles that we're purchasing right now and we're trying to get some chargers. We've been able to secure some from snow and clean power for free. You know, obviously it costs money still to come up, but those are using just what's available at some of the buildings. And so with that, the good news is that we'll be able to use that data we're gathering on, you know, how long it takes to charge a vehicle, how often they're getting charged, and then combine that with the type of driving data. So we could actually see if there's an opportunity there to, because some vehicles don't go out, you know, all the time. And so yeah, maybe there might be an easier, cheaper strategy there by using some smaller chargers. There may be other times where you just know that you have to have a rapid charge on a vehicle and that's going to require additional heavier lift in terms of the infrastructure on the city side to bring that up to, yes, it's 480, 480 volts and other things like that too. So those will have to be considered. Those are larger capital projects to make that happen. Yeah. I assume cars will be sold with the 110 units from now on. If that's going away, well, then this is a mute point, but I would just suggest you keep that in mind. No, we appreciate it. Do we have any public comments online? We have no hands raised on sale. Perfect. Bring it back. Any additional comments? Great. All right. Looks good. Thank you. Move on to 5.2 then. Okay. So 5.2 is status update on the 2012 community climate action plan and 2013 municipal action plan. And I will be presenting Tasha Wright and sustainability coordinator for water. And I'll be joined by Amy Lyle, supervising planner and planning and economic development. So, so first I'm going to start out a little bit of background with a little bit of background and mention the city's commitment to climate action over the years. All the way back in 2000, the city initiated an important first step to quantifying emissions from city opera operations. That was the beginning for us. And then in 2005, we were supported by a very small nonprofit now known as the climate center. And that organization helped the cities and the county work on looking at GHG emissions reduction targets. And so the city of Santa Rosa set a municipal target of 20% from below the 20, the 2000 levels by 2010. And then also agreed to participate in supporting the whole county with their 25% from the 1990 levels by 2015. Then we'll jump ahead to 2012. And of course we began doing various types of work between the time period. But what became obvious for us was that we needed to really put together a plan on how we are going to get to these targets. So we began working on the community climate action plan that was completed in 2012 and adopted by council. And then also in 2013, the municipal climate action plan was completed and it's adopted as well. So the community one was really for, and I'll go into this a little bit more is focusing on the outside of our municipal operations and then municipal being very focused on our GHG produced by energy use at facilities, our vehicle emissions, et cetera. So jumping forward to 2020. And of course we set out on working on all the measures identified in those plans. And then in 2020, the climate emergency resolution was signed and that was endorsing the declaration of a climate emergency, which included a goal of reducing or reaching the carbon neutrality by 2030. We worked with RCPA and committed to contributing to a development of a countywide 2030 climate emergency mobilization strategy. And that was to focus on identifying key local actions and also integrate climate change considerations into all of our policies. So much of what we've been doing over the last few years has been part of that. So then jumping even farther ahead to 2023, 2024 as part of the city council goal setting. There was an additional goal titled addressing climate change. And that was really to take proactive steps towards carbon neutrality and environmental education for all. So the key pieces there was to mitigate the impacts of climate change with comprehensive planning and implementation and established policies that support environmental sustainability and building an infrastructure investment to facilitate carbon neutrality. All part of supporting that 2020 resolution. Okay. So I'm going to go ahead and go through both of those climate action plans. This is going to be pretty dense because there's a lot in it and we've done quite a bit. So climate action plans, as I mentioned, municipal cap or the community wide cap known as the C cap as we call it addresses the citywide greenhouse gas emissions reductions. And then the M cap as we call it is the municipal piece from city facilities on all of our operations. Both those established a GHG inventory and provided a GHG inventory set a baseline and then a menu essentially of implementation measures to be implemented to get us to reduce our GHGs as a whole. What you will also notice in both these plans is that there's a lot of overlap because we do things that initially that were identified in the climate action plan with facilities and fleet. Then when the municipal action plan was written, it's more specific, but both things affect community and our municipal operations. So there are, again, 2012, this was adopted. There are nine different categories written there, as you can see, and there was a total of 115 measures that were identified. At this time, we have 35 that have been completed and then 61 in progress were ongoing. So some of these completed measures rolled into we did them, yes, but they're ongoing. Not all of them had a beginning, middle, and done type of thing. And then there was a handful of items to that were identified as once we looked into them, cost, feasibility, and multitude of other things, maybe they didn't make sense for us to do because we found a better option that made even a bigger impact. And of course, over the years, we've also found additional things that have been added. So I'm going to go through first the completed and then I'll go through the in progress. And I'm not going to go through all of them because there are so many, but I really want to highlight some of the ones that have been major to our activities. And they'll be familiar with. So Calgary and standards were adopted. Those standards include mandatory standards, promoting sustainable construction practices. There's also the voluntary standard. Voluntary standards referred to is in tears. And in November of 2016, the city adopted all the tier one voluntary standards that were found to be cost effective. And these include requirements such as worrying for electric vehicle charging, water efficiency fixtures, and recycled content requirements. And then also something else that has been really big for us is that we worked with the county to develop the Sonoma County energy independence program, which provides financing. Initially the idea was through solar because that was one of the biggest things, but it really expanded into energy efficiency, water conservation. And now it's even been updated for fire mitigation efforts as well. And what Santa Rosa did in order to provide support with that, it passed resolutions to include those programs and make them available to within the city limits. So another one you'll see identified here was explore the cost of community choice aggregation. And as you all know, we now have, yes, Sonoma Clean Power. So that's been, we're really fortunate to have that in our community. All right. So additional in the parking and land use management piece. We have policy development that's ongoing to increase density, bonus and height limits in priority development areas. There as you see on here too, it talks about implementing station plans and quarter plans. And these provide incentive to developers to construct high density near housing, near transportation and commercial development. The downtown station area specific plan was adopted in 2020. The updated and then policy development is always ongoing to increase density, bonus and height limits. As I mentioned, there was, has also been an effort for price on street parking relative to congestion. We keep learning and adjusting. That's one thing that as I was going through all the different things that we have done within the city, it was very evident to me that we are, we're always trying to be flexible and figure out the next thing, whether that's scooters or bikes or changing and looking at how. But I do think we got rid of that one, right? Yeah, there are. That was the progressive parking program. Right. And so that's why I mentioned, you know, always adopting things and then we adjust as we go through. So this is a good example of that. And then implementing residential permit program. This has been going on for a while, but now there's different, six different neighborhoods plus more now that ensure that only residents park on street during the day, preventing spillover parking from other activities within the area. So I'm also completed this list here and the improved transit options and optimized vehicle travel. And one of the recent big accomplishments that falls under this is our EV buses. So the first four went into service in late 2022 and city council approved on six, six, 23. And recently the city bus zeb roll up plan. And I see you're over there and our champion. Fortunately, we have a few champions in the room here today. So next, so additional completed in the categories of waste reduction, recycling, composting, and then also water and wastewater on this page. And in February of 2014, city and county adopted the ordinance ending the availability of single use bags for retailers. Zero waste master plan was adopted in 2020. And then the food, zero waste food or where ordinance was adopted in August of 2021. And then on the water wastewater side as you're aware, water has been very proactive and their water use efficiency team is absolutely phenomenal. And they continue to do a lot of great programs and they expand them and are able to get additional funding. And so water smart home programs and they are working on the free toilet replacement program again, which is additional funding for that. It's always a great one. So energy efficient or high efficiency plumbing fixtures, which include shower head, bathroom, boss aerators, chicken kitchen aerators. And those are always available to our community. There's the turf replacement program, landscape irrigation efficiency, which fit rainwater harvesting and graywater recycling. In case I can't read. And then also additional outreach has taken place and you've been very proactive through the drought years. And we've been able to reduce over 30% as compared to 2020% by water diversions from the Russian river and exceeding even the 20% reduction required by the state water resources control board and ordered through October 2022 last year. And we did this on top of our community already having reduced water use significantly over the years. So we asked a lot and people stepped up. That was pretty amazing what we do in this community. All right. And more completed agricultural and local food and then off road vehicles and equipment. There's been so as far as the established community gardens and urban farms, they are included in new park designs such as Anali and bare neighborhood parks. There was also the rezoning code or the revised zoning code to allow for chickens. And then we also, as far as the encouraged provision of outside outlets, we also have the residential building code. And we also have the residential building code as required. This is required as by the residential building code. And then replacing high water use landscapes. As you know, there is the residential turf replacement program. And of course we did the install the city hall. Water efficient garden as a demonstration project. And the local fire department. So we've got all the equipment. Emissions. This is a standard for projects and they're subject to sequa. And Continuing on. So then these are some of the ones that are in progress. And like I said, there's a total of 61. Quite a few here. And so one of the items identified was developing a city and all city facilities through lighting retrofits. So later on in slide 17, I will talk more about that in the MCAP and highlighting some of the completed projects. But the city has been very proactive in getting PG&E rebates for switching out lights to LEDs. So that's been very important to us. As we go, we continue to do that. So provide information for your low cost energy audits. This we partner, as mentioned earlier, even with the EVIMP process that we really look to working with Skype, PG&E, Sonoma Clean Power, some of our local nonprofits to make sure that the word is getting out of what is available on our community to participate in our options. And then also identified was to develop a city energy project to reduce energy at our city facilities. So we recently completed facilities it was done by AECOM and they looked at all of our main facilities and looked at opportunities for energy efficiency measures and renewable energy. And then also went as far as microgrids and solar. And there were several projects identified and we've gone back to council with recommendations and council approved for us to move forward and go to the next step with the microgrids. So that is coming soon. So I'm gonna, let's take a time, kind of keep going here. We still have a ways to go. So more on progress. This one is in the energy efficiency and conservation continued, there's also identified some of these are very interesting where they ended up but develop a tree inventory and an inventory of park trees will be part of the new citywide work order asset management system. So a lot of these things that I am letting you know about we do a tracking just on the side note we have an Excel spreadsheet that has a very high technology here but we have all the measures laid out and then we have notes and staff works frequently to make sure that these things are updated. So depending on where they are within the different departments there are staff that we contact and have them provide the latest updates on those. So then also identified programs to switch appliances from natural gas to electricity. So the city's climate action webpage includes a lot of information on retrofit programs. And again, as I mentioned, PG&E, Sonoma Clean Power the Skype program that is constantly getting the information out and we make it available where we can. So, and so Renewable Energy, Parking and Land Use Management. So we will, we continue to create municipal projects which include renewable energy. And again, as I mentioned, a comm identifying the different opportunities for us and then beginning to move forward with those that make the most sense for the city. And then of course on here as well is the improved non-vehicular network to promote walking and biking. And there's a lot being done around that and there's more in the municipal section. And you've recently heard that it was a public information and it's on our website too, that roughly four miles of new and improved bike lanes are happening in this summer. And there was quite a bit more to come as well. So that I have also on this slide. So on this slide, so that's implementing the bike and pedestrian master plan as part of that. That checks this box, several boxes. So the city's first two-way protective bike lanes are being installed now as well as a two-way cycle track on the west side of Santa Rosa between First Street and Sonoma Ave this summer and adding, as I mentioned, four miles of new improved bike lanes. There is also the effort continues working with safe routes to school program. And also an application has been submitted to receive a bicycle friendly business designation through the League of American Bicycles and staff will also be applying to potentially improve our designation as a bicycle friendly community. And okay, so then also in here, we have the support establishment of the smart rail service. Some of these are very old we're 11 years over when this was developed. And as we know, smart is running. And then in here also was the replaced bus fleet with GHG reducing vehicles. And as previously mentioned, so we've got four EV buses that have been in operation since last year. There was the approval of the city bus zebra rollout plan. And as part of that, it will support city bus and transitioning. It's 29 bucks fixed route fleet and 12 bus cutaway fleet to full electric by 2037. And that's actually three years ahead of the state requirement for full fleet electrification. Very, very impressive. More, we are not done. You're gonna have all of this now. All right, be careful what you ask for. And so more on optimized vehicle travel and waste reduction recycling composting. Again, as mentioned in February, 2014, city and council adopted an ordinance ending the availability of single use bags. We have the zero waste master plan that implementation is ongoing. And then the food for our ordinance. And then into water and wastewater and agriculture, local food, off-road vehicles and equipment. Here I just wanna highlight the energy optimization plan. This has been very, very important for the water department. I will mention more about that. But essentially it's a roadmap for strategically and systematically optimizing energy use in our water operations. And that is through reduction of energy use, energy costs related to energy use, as well as GHGs. Santa Rosa water is about 75% of our city municipal operations, total energy budget each year. And so we really do get the biggest bang for our buck by focusing on what we do out of that treatment plant. And we've done some pretty impressive things I'll go into later. And then promoting slow food campaign for restaurants and wineries. And there's a lot of different things that are being done through this, but out there in the middle of everywhere that has a website and not has promoting of local restaurants and wineries and including slow food. Okay, so moving on to the municipal climate action plan. This has seven areas of what was referred to as opportunities. There are a total of 46 measures identified and 20 have been completed. There's 20 ongoing. And then there were just a small amount of six handful that were determined to be not cost effective or were done in some other capacity. So in August 6th of 2013 is when the council adopted the MCAP and as I mentioned, they it focuses on emissions associated with our facilities and operations. Okay, so wastewater operations. So we have many things that have happened since 2012. A high strength waste facility was completed that that allowed us to actually bring in types of waste. So that's oils and greases from our community provide a great opportunity for a place for those things to go, as opposed to being tracked or trucked outside of our community. So reducing truck miles bit and traveled and emissions from that. And something else that came out of that is that increased the energy we were able to get out of that system through the generation with our anaerobic digesters and the methane capture. And so I believe it was about a 17% increase. And we have had a huge demand for that. And the potential for us to look at expansion of that system is something that we've identified as something we'd like to do. So again, EOP as well. And that is really our roadmap. And one of the pieces of that is that we had a ECOM also do a study separate from the facilities. We had the EOP, but we wanted to go next step. What was an opportunity as part of the recommendations out of the EOP that we could dive deeper into. And one of those things that was highest on the list was looking at additional solar. So we've looked at the utilities field operation center and covering with solar there. And then also the potential to do floating solar out at our ponds, which is something that has been a long time in the idea stage. And we'll, the report isn't complete yet, but we're hopeful that we'll have good news for you on that and be back for discussion. So one of the other very wonderful things that we did was the city switch to Evergreen, which is 100% renewables from Sonoma Clean Power. And we started looking at that end in 2019 and rolled it into 2020. By the end of that point, we were able to get all of our accounts over to Evergreen a little bit ahead of the rest of the city, but that was the beginning. And that has been fantastic. We've also done engine replacements. And when we do that, we always look for higher energy efficient engines. And we work with PG&E for rebates. Again, partnerships huge. And also one of my favorite things from the 17 years that I've been working for the city is of course our geysers projects. And the fact that we send our tertiary-treated water up to the, yeah, you know, it's great. We've got lots of fun stories about what we're gonna put on the side of the EV bus, but those were fun, fun conversations, but needless to say the full circle of sending our water up there and then purchasing it through some Sonoma Clean Power is fantastic. Additionally, something very innovative. We talked about this a little bit or we just mentioned the innovation piece. And that was adding two SCRs, selective catalytic reducers at LTP, two are engines, one with an additional 125 kW of solar. The SCRs allow us to decrease our emissions. They act like a catalytic converter on a car. So we're able to stay within our permit, below our air permit requirements and then run our engines and have more of that high-strength waste producing additional methane. And then of course using that onsite, which is another fantastic thing. And we continue to do upgrades to more efficient lighting and also the AMI implementation has been completed as well, the automatic meter information system. So that has been very great. We get instant response or instant information knowing when there's leaks and we're able to contact our customers and help them handle that as soon as possible. So more things completed in the building facilities and then to see employee commute and public lighting there. One of the items was to install small co-generation system at the Findelay Center. That was done, a high efficiency boiler. And then a small co-generation system was also in Star-Elde, a parking division installed total of 319 kW of rooftop solar for parking facilities. And also the city has implemented a telework policy and many staff are able to work one or more days from home. And as mentioned, we continue to install LED lights. So some of the items here in progress and as you know and probably seen there are a lot of overlap or redundancies as part of our efforts. They may look a little different. So as a reminder, 46 measures, 20 completed. Here are the ones that are ongoing. So as you see here, all of these have been done the high efficiency lighting, the replacement of the air cooler and then install a one, two, or four megawatt system. As I mentioned, a comp, we're looking at those things for the utility field office as well as the Ponset LT-P fleet. I don't think I need to say much more. Peter did a very wonderful job by talking about our EVIMP master plan that's coming up. So more in progress. Oh wait, employee commute, public lighting additional and then the waste stream. We talked about the zero waste program. We'll also mention that city staff has worked on putting together a composting program which you'll see, I'm sure you've seen all over the place from recycling and we're composting our paper towels and then we have in the kitchens, we have composting bins where people can put their food and we've also provided staff with little compost bins for their desk and we also put together a dish library for everyone. So there in the kitchens is plates, silverware cups, coffee cups that are available when we ask staff whenever there's any kind of event or meeting that requires anything like that. We either have them bring their own or in that respect, grab everything out of the kitchen and make it available. So that pretty much wraps up everything I have as far as the specific measures but I do, so a lot of the outcome you've heard about but there's also addition and beyond and a little recap. So 2019 to 2020, the switch to Evergreen, we had RCPA do a 2020 Sonoma County GHG inventory presentation. They have historically been the ones that periodically have updated the GHG inventory for all the cities and the counties and the last report out was that we were at 22.3% below 1990s levels as a county but also the city is 28% reduced by 28% between 1990 and 2020 and I also want to go back and mention that with that RCPA 2020 GHG inventory that that is close to almost achieving the 2020 GHG reduction goal of 25% below 1990 levels and those were established sometime earlier. And then just running through here, as I mentioned, the AECOM program or analysis, some of those are complete then projects are in process. We're in the process of completing the AECOM analysis for Santa Rosa water. I also want to mention the gas station ordinance that went into effect in 2022. That of course wasn't in the MCAP or the CCAP but that is something that as we need to do everything that we possibly can and look at new opportunities. That's another one that we took advantage of and pushed forward. And then of course the 2023-24 city council goal to address climate change and having that be up in front. So let's see. And now I'll say to kind of wrap my little part up here is the moving forward is the update to the climate action plans we have and that's being done as part of the general plan update. And so we continue to develop different GHG reduction strategies and coordinate with our partners in the community and our residents. And now it's integrating goals and strategies and general plans. So with that, I'm going to hand it over to Amy Lyle. Thank you so much. All right, I've presented too many times you know who I am, but I'm Amy Lyle and I manage our long range planning team. And then as part of that, I get to work with Sherry as a co-project manager on their general plan update. And then we have Astrea who's our newest intern introduced her as well. So she's going to be working with us over the summer before she heads off back to college on the East Coast. So she'll be working on our general plan engagement coming up as well. And so really I am just adding input into the presentation today, I really appreciate the opportunity because we want to talk about and just reiterate what's happening with the update of the climate action plan and how that's integrated into the general plan. And so basically it is going to be integrated. So we will no longer have a standalone cap. We'll have a general plan and we actually will be releasing that in a couple of weeks here the draft and that's going to include greenhouse gas mission reduction policies, climate action policies related to adaptation, resiliency. And then along with that, we'll have a greenhouse gas reduction strategy which will be an appendix to the general plan. So it's going to look and feel a lot different than what we have now as far as this separate cap. And the reason we're doing this is really because it's the best practice to have these integrated because under state law, in order to utilize a climate action plan, you really need to have assessed the growth of the city, all of the inventory targets and the actual emission reduction targets need to be holistically considered. And so having that as part of the general plan is really the ideal solution. So there will no longer be a separate cap and we'll talk a little bit about how that relates to the municipal climate action plan as well. But just want to also note that we have a couple of different things that will be happening over the next few months. So we'll talk about schedule and how these things will be integrated. Okay, into the next one. Okay. And so just as far as what has happened so far and what will be happening, we did do a vulnerability assessment. So that's on our website. And along with that, we also did some work with EcoAdapt around the same time period. So we were chosen by EcoAdapt, which is an East Coast organization as one of think 10, five or 10 cities to do an adaptation project. And so they're actually following us over a number of years. And so we did get a report from them. We also worked with Urban Land Institute on some climate work. So all of that's being incorporated into our work now. And then the inventory that we did is similar to the one RCPA did, but we wanted to do it just for our city. And so the work that RCPA did was incorporated as well. So that's been completed. And then of course our forecasting and then looking at our reduction targets. So our state targets have shifted since we actually started the general plan update. And of course we have our climate emergency resolution which sets net zero by 2030, which is basically tomorrow. So we're really right now working with our consultant team to make sure that the strategies are looking at all of those different aspects. Because it's one thing to meet the state targets but it's another when you're talking about carbon neutrality by 2030. So we're asking, what does that look like? And so we've asked them to really help us go bolder. And so we've been working with our technical advisory committee which is basically our departments within the city to review what's in our general plan draft and then what kind of strategies can we do? What ideas do we have? So we have something that really does match the expectation of what you all as council have put forward to us. So all of that will be coming out in the next few weeks, which is very exciting. And then we will be doing some engagement over the late summer. So in August we'll be doing a series of surveys and workshops. There will be many questions that relate directly to the climate action work. They, like I said, there's some very bold things. So we're gonna be asking the community what they think about some of these different policies and programs that may directly impact how people operate and live within the city. And so with that, do you wanna talk about the municipal side of things? And I'm happy to weigh in if you would like me to as well. So with the municipal climate action plan, as you saw, there was quite a few overlaps that were similar to what was written in the cap and then pulled into, okay, well, the community is gonna be doing that, but we also will be doing that. So really as the conversation went on, knowing these different strategies that we've done, we've got our own internal EOP, we've got the EV master plan, these things are already be rolling. And as the general plan comes about and there's that element of the climate action plan, it really is about what is required of outside within the community is also what we need to follow. And the bigger picture is we need to get to carbon neutrality by 2030. So that we have to focus on for our municipal operations. So as it had been done before with these two separate documents and then looking out into other cities and counties and what they were doing, they were all moving to this same model of incorporating everything into a general plan update and the element of a climate action plan rather than having this separated idea. It's like we have our plans to meet these goals, but then this is a much more holistic approach because we're gonna be following the same things. So. And then if I could piggyback on this slide too. Oh yeah. So another aspect of our work is that we do have some PG&E funds available related to climate action planning implementation. And so we are waiting for the climate action plan and general plan work to conclude to identify how to spend those funds. But one thing that we have identified and I know it's come through this committee before is creating a dashboard. So everything that Tasha just talked through that can be public, transparent, updated often. And so the community can see exactly what's happening as far as the various actions and where we're at as far as inventories and targets. So that's something that is on the horizon and also the GHG inventory. Yes. And so as we talk about next steps and kind of moving off of the MCAP and how that's rolling in, well, what are our next steps and strategies and what does that look like for us? So the department work plans is one of the things that we're looking to do because each department is very, very different from what they have from one to the next is doesn't always look the same. Our goal is the same but how we get there and our operations looking much different is we all need our own work plans. And then, so that's going to be a piece of it. As mentioned, the dashboard, we've talked about this for many years because there's this constant, well, what is the city doing? And unless we are, people are hearing these kinds of things, we don't put it out on flares, we don't have little blurbs on the local radio stations, like this is what we're doing. It's much harder for the community to really know what is happening and what we're actually doing. So the conversation continues with RCPA and the other cities, how can we make sure that people know and what is something that would be useful for us? So a dashboard would be a great tool for both staff to be able to put these measures into and there is a real-time update of here's the measures, this is where we're at, here's our progress, staff can utilize that and then the public can see where we've come from and where we're going. So we are in conversation with RCPA, looking at what tools are available out there and where we wanna go with this and how that's gonna work because we want apples to apples in our community. We work really hard within the county, it's a much bigger, we're trying not to work in silos. We're more powerful in numbers and so if we're always in the same tool and the public can go to each city and see their dashboards, understand how to use them, that would be really wonderful thing. And then the GHG inventory updates, historically the RCPA has been the one that has been doing those and I think that the dashboard, if we compare something also up with the dashboard and have a more frequent GHG inventory, so we're not five years and then we see where we're at is another of the strategies we're helping for. So that's it. So if there's any questions, there's Amy's contact in my contact there and open up. Perfect. I'll see if there's any questions. Sure, I have a few questions. This is quite comprehensive. Thank you. A lot. Sorry, it was a lot. That's not what I meant. What I meant is it's wonderful to hear everything that each department is doing and I especially love the piece about trying things, them not working, trying something else and I think that's just wonderful to take risks and see what happens. My questions are all over the board about different potential uses or methods of reduction. Don't forget me, this is my first climate subcommittee meeting. So one is are materials types being considered in road repaving to, I know that's not really a carbon issue so much, although you could sequester carbon, but around heat generated from asphalt, are we looking at different materials in the field for when we go to do overlays or new roads? One of our future items we're gonna be coming to you will be about low carbon concrete. Wonderful. We have a little more update for you. Great. So one check. You also got one earlier around the photovoltaic array. So well done. Potable reuse at the treatment plant. How are we with that? I'm starting out as part of the plan. Yeah, we have by the end of the year, the R-Wire Future Plan and part of the portfolios for evaluation does include photovoltaic reuse. Beautiful. That's the future wire supply option. And then telework. I said you know, I think we're able to work one day away is the city administration looking at you know, how to maximize telework for employees who don't need to be here in person. Yeah, so that's, I don't know if one of you want to take that, but it definitely varies. And I can say just from my boots on the ground level, working with Peter as our supervisor, he manages multiple teams. And for instance, my team, we need to be more in the office. And so we only work from home one day a week. Whereas one of our other teams, they have much more flexibility. They can work two days a week. So I think that the city is, if it's reflective of what we've been doing, we really try to work to maximize and what makes sense. And of course we have our utility system operators who they've got to be at work there. So I'm talking, but as far as the people who are in the office, and if either one of you want to add anything. I mean, it just goes back to the HR policy that's out there, it's up to 50%. Right. So I guess what my question is, is when was the policy last updated and what's the logic behind the number of up to 50%. I mean, I get it that, it's difficult for the people who have to be work in person, I do a job where I have to work in person, but I would never want somebody who doesn't act in person, have to be in person just out of trying to make other people feel good about having to be in person. So remote work policy was actually adopted in 2021, 2022. It's not been implemented for a very long period of time. We are put the change over in staff. We're starting to revitalize all of the employees agreements on how they're going to implement and operate through that work policy. We tried to look at what other agencies we're doing as far as a standard, and unfortunately there's no standard, it's all over the board. So we believe we conform with the general average of what agencies are doing from our remote work. I'd consider this a test. Right now the industry on remote work is, just looking, for example, in the engineering, some companies are going 100% remote, others are going completely back into the office and they're not allowing any remote work. We're somewhere in the middle at this point. So taking the data, looking at how we're efficiently producing work, following our production metrics, then we'll determine if more can happen or less should happen. And then last two questions, hopefully they won't take too long. One is we implemented the reach code a few years ago, have the building codes changed to allow us to go higher on that one for next time maybe? Cool. And then the last one's a really tiny one, which is I hear about all this great stuff from the water department with my little plastic covered water bill. And it just boggles the mind as like, we're getting rid of like single-use plastics and I'm sure it's a contractor that holds the contract. When's that contract up and are we gonna stop doing that? This is the address window on the envelope. I think I see nodding heads from staff. Yeah, I don't know the inner workings of billing, but that's something I'll take a note of and I'll take it. Awesome, thanks. That's not all of my questions for today. Great. Any questions? No? All right, let's go to public comment. Have a comment you'd like to make, sir? Oh my goodness. I'm overwhelmed with the amount that you're doing and I'm so very proud that you're doing it as a city. And I'm getting into my business mind that I used to have when I was working and I hope this doesn't offend anybody, but in looking at this, I was wondering, my God, how many people are you, what resources are you going to be needing to implement all of this? And then I said, well, kind of thinking here, if you don't have enough and you probably don't never do have enough resources, then you're certainly out of prioritize what comes first. And if I had my druthers, I would have liked to have seen, 2030 is right around the corner. I would like to have seen priority in this. Which ones are your top? So that at times go on, you can reallocate resources and make sure that the top gets done. I just worry about getting all this done. Any other comments? Anybody online? There are no hands raised on two. I'll bring it back. Any additional comments? Go on. Just thank you for the presentation and maybe just a suggestion on the dashboard, maybe having priorities and when are the expected completion, like if there is an expected completion date or if it's just something that's ongoing, that might be a good thing to show and tell the public on the dashboards. And I don't know, I had a question about all electric, but you can ask. Well, just the new builds that are installing in there all electric and they install like eight solar panels or something. I think that they should have to disclose per how many square feet the actual houses, like what those eight solar panels are gonna do. Because in some instances, they don't do anything depending on how large the house is and people after buying a home and we all know how expensive homes are. Here they have to invest additional into solar, but they think or it's marketed that you're buying a home and it has solar, but that is a lie. It has solar, but sometimes depending on how large the house is, it does not do anything. So that was just, I don't think we have a policy or anything that tells, that makes the builder disclose those types of things. And when you have a house that is all electric and you have itty-bitty solar panels, but they don't do very much, that's a very high electricity bill and the price of energy is continuing to go up. So when we have the all electric burn, it's on the builds. And I just want to say thank you also. I am going to hold you to it, Amy, that there's going to be some stretch goals in there, some things that are coming forward that are going to make people have to actually question their commitment to achieving the goals that we need to achieve. And one of the things that I've been reading a lot more about over the last couple of days was the first ever in the United States wet bulb temperatures down in the Southeast. And for folks, that's where you have the confluence between the temperature and the humidity level to where sweat no longer evaporates off of somebody's skin and if they're out working particularly in the fields, that they have literally no way to cool themselves if they don't have access to air conditioning. And this is just going to continue to happen as climate change happens. So as we see that, as we see pretty much everywhere else in the world having their highest temperature day ever on Monday, I think it's really good for us to throw that out there to the community and say, this is what it's going to take for us to be carbon neutral. Are you willing to do it or not? And I know we have polling that just came back from RCPA really asking kind of those same questions. So looking forward to it, keep up the good work on it. Any additional comments? Let's do it. All right, with that we're adjourned. Thank you everybody.

All for a height Let's check the doggy out here. Oh cool. I like that slide. All I would do is By now right at the end like I don't know what this frame is 74 Start at what is where's my finger? You start adding a little paw forward and paw forward. These are awesome doggy legs meaning that you end up something where he's balanced All right legs, but then also legs forward And then looking at the guy So you slide and then you stop and then you take step forward step forward It's cool. I like it like that actually That fills up that feels a bit limp right through there And watch out you got a little frame pop here That leg goes and then kind of whoa, and then they stick in and the air here So by now this doggy needs to be here much if you actually move it forward. So with that push-off It really needs to go further So you might have to take this piece and just put it here and shorten this piece Right there this is a really fast drop you got the head Boop right there fool selling drops really really fast Boop right there Cool slide. Oh, I like it I would probably take these guys. It's just a thing but angle them So diagonal stuff is a bit more threatening And you might want to bring I don't know if you're gonna like this but like we're starting to lose the spikes of this guy So either bring those clouds over to the right or You know with this light. Maybe there's some lighting On the left that will illuminate the edges there It's cool though, so you're saying Ending rough camera actually the camera is fine Because it frames it correctly it would just be a one more layer of handheld which I can totally show you and I'm missing the uniform got to model it yet uniform I'm not sure about uniform, but yeah guys there Just let me know what you want to do with the guy if he's might just be passed out And then I would just to put the head sideways Eyes closed jaw open maybe tongues out, you know, maybe then that we don't have to animate the character And it's just about the dog coming over there and It's coming to the rescue type of thing. Yeah, the biggest thing to me the sudden drop not enough of a push and After that slide one two steps for adjustment It's cool down and This guy so you're saying I attached to be to the board for my ideas are about the ugly drawings Hopefully you would understand what I'm trying to do. You don't need help to maybe make the camera dynamic right now every frame is still Dialogue says the Empire is Interesting dialogue just reading it. This is exposition dialogue It's not something where the character has any Emotions attached to it or it gives us context some conflict some change This is basically someone explaining something which is usually not something you want to use As a like a loose loose rule. I mean obviously you can make this awesome, but The Empire of Izmir has long been a divided land ruled by the mages an elite group of magic users The lowly commoners those without magic are little more than slaves So wait that reading a story to his kids kids can be brothers inside a tent with flashlights That's a cool idea to offset the audio Meaning that I would then concentrate on the kids listening Maybe looking at like cool while he just delivers the line because the line is just kind of boring So this will make it much more interesting Dragon coming to frame flying a powerful magician on top ruled by the mages, that's a cool idea like this again not not really Focusing on the audio. I love it They're letting a powerful magician Magic users the lowly commoners those without magic It's kind of cool. I don't know if this is too crazy. I'm open to suggestions. Let me know what you think for the record I've never had a dragon in my life Um That's a problem because they're really complex Dragon coming in But I mean the first one is a flight. So the thing is If you're doing this, you need something interesting. I like your idea of the guy landing Especially if it's just that landing motion. I think we can work on that. I can I can teach you all this The tricky thing is besides, you know, I know what kind of dragon ball you're gonna use But you're gonna have the wing action the legs potential tail and the physics of Flat flat boom land and the weight and everything on top of that You have a human that has to react to all that weight and overlapping action everything That's the really tricky part as well. Cool idea though. And I think it would really push you and learn you learn a lot I think I'm all I'm all for that. So if you're doing this, it's pretending. This is for real It needs to be something interesting. Dragon comes into frame flying with the power of magic on top So it's all about the flight dynamics. So it will be You know, you could have a castle and maybe like another hill here and then suddenly out of You know, could be some tree line or something and suddenly as a surprise Dragon is like that it comes out Like a nice silhouette, maybe there's even like it's a sunset or something and as the dragon comes up Creates a silhouette and then comes down and then it's flap flap into a turn Lap type of thing. Maybe Comes past us, you know, it's it's almost like you got something here comes When and Passed thing us past flying camera thing That could be something depends what you want to do. It depends what you're comfortable with Or it could just be coming up. Well coming up this way Those little twin and towards camera, you know, it can be simpler It depends how big you want it to be is that actual scale compared to this. I mean, all kinds of ideas, you know, or Or it's something what's the line here the rule by You're not really talking about dragons so you could do anything you want So what if it's you know, what if it's the castle and then the castle is next to a bit of a rock And there are more buildings here. So it's all kind of built together and then you have this dragon Sitting on it kind of protecting the castle or whatever and then you have a jump off flap flap Past camera, you know, that could be something so lots of ways to make an intro or or show off some animation We should push off flap flap away from us or coming in fluff up away from us kind of depends what you want to do But I like the idea and actually I like the combination of this for him I would just have him read this but maybe like a slight smile and before he starts there's some emotion in touch Tell my kids something super cool, and it's all about the kids going. Oh, it would be cute to have both of them So you can have maybe one is They have as his arms and it lays his head on the chain on his arms And then the other one kind of rustles up next to him and Hold and gets his head on the other hand. They kind of like rough and tumble little boys It kind of but they're they love each other and they're kind of together in this That could be something cute some cute action there and then having just that voice over to show this I think it's a really cool idea So yeah, that's kind of it for that All right, there's an email you can sign up you can start whenever you want you can submit whatever you want You get 16 submissions either way like and subscribe would be awesome. All right. Thank you

MGN, we don't play games with your YouTube gaming career. What is up everyone, Nate here and on today's episode we bring in one of our MGN partners, you all know him as Raptor. Good to have you on the show Raptor, tell us a little bit about yourself. Hello Nate, first off I'd like to say thank you so much for letting me be the first interviewed. My name is Alex Aroul and I am a future automotive engineer as well as a YouTube entrepreneur and live streamer. Alex, that's a nice accent you got there. Where are you from? Nate, I was actually born in Manchester, England before moving over to Essex as well as Enfield. Also played in Manchester United for the academy and the youth team for Bolton Wanderers. A bit of a soccer star then, or as you call it in Britland football. Where are you located now? I currently live in Ontario, Canada in a city called Brampton, which is part of the GTA and no not a Grand Theft Auto, I'm talking about the great Toronto area which I'm pretty sure some of the viewers may actually know. I guess it's really the same thing, we all know Toronto is a cesspool of car thieves and hookers. I'm kidding, you got that right? Who wrote this? So where did the name Raptor come from? While Nate, that is a very very good question. I originally had the name iGamerVII otherwise known as iGamer7 but had decided to change it for the benefit of my channel. I got the double R or extended R from FaZe Temper and then in Toronto there's a team called the Toronto Raptors so I decided to come up with both of them and got a Raptor. How long have you been with MGM Raptor? Well Nate I believe I've been in MGM for 5 months since it had launched back in September and I joined a couple weeks after in October and I really do think that it was the next step up for my YouTube gaming career. But we're really glad to have you aboard Raptor, how about you tell our audience what you do on your personal channel? Well I currently focus on a game I love the most which is Destiny on the PS4 and I feel as though it suits my personality as well as playstyle best which I highly recommend for all aspiring YouTubers is to do what you love doing, the game that you love the most. Got any special plans for your channel's future? Well Nate I hope to bring around a second channel when I'm around 500,000 subscribers called the Raptor 2 or more Raptor, kind of like what Ali-A does where he has a second channel where you do Minecraft, Grand Theft Auto V or other games such as Gears Mod. Other than that I hope to focus on Call of Duty as well as Destiny in the near future and maybe No Man's Sky. So you mentioned your favorite current game is Destiny, what is your favorite game of all time? Well I think my all-time favorite game even though despite it being not in my genre, the Last of Us remastered on the PS4 but it's definitely tied with Destiny. Although No Man's Sky as well as Black Ops 1 is definitely a worth contender for my top favorite games. Totally gotta agree with you there Alex, the Last of Us is definitely my favorite single player game of all time. Thanks Alex aka Raptor for being on the show this week, make sure to check out his channel here. Until next week this is Nate signing out, have a good week Freedom Family.

Libyan General Elections 2021: Discussion Series with Libyan Leaders - Dr. Aref Ali Nayed (Arabic)
A Conversation with Dr. Aref Ali Nayed, Chairman of Ihya Libya (Reviving Libya) Following a decade of war and rifts in Libya, a U.N.-facilitated dialogue led to the formation of the Government of National Unity (GNU) in March 2021. The GNU has been tasked with leading the country toward long-awaited presidential and parliamentary elections commencing this December — elections that are crucial to Libya’s transition and could facilitate further governmental unification, community reconciliation, economic recovery and the basis for rule of law and good governance. While the GNU has taken significant steps to arrange elections, it still faces numerous challenges related to the presence of external military powers, conflicting interests among Libyan politicians and armed groups, economic and health problems, and sporadic violence. Libyan leaders that view the elections as a means for change in the country and as a path toward a representative political system face complex impediments that require a consultative and inclusive approach that fosters long-term stability and security in Libya. Join USIP for the third in a series of public discussions with Libyan leaders connected to the elections scheduled in the coming months. These events will dive into complex questions regarding efforts to prevent electoral violence, the electoral process itself and leaders’ visions for restoring peace and stability in Libya. This third event will invite Dr. Aref Ali Nayed, who is the chairman of Ihya Libya (Reviving Libya) — a registered political party — and has served as the former ambassador of Libya to the United Arab Emirates and is also the chairman of both Kalam Research & Media and the Libya Institute for Advanced Studies. Speakers: Dr. Aref Ali Nayed Chairman, Ihya Libya Mike Yaffe, moderator Vice President, Middle East and North Africa Center, U.S. Institute of Peace For more information about this event, to watch this event in English or to join our live Q&A, please visit: https://www.usip.org/events/libyan-general-elections-2021-discussion-series-libyan-leaders-1 Connect with us!

انتخابات برلملية بالنسبة للرئاسية تم تأجيلها عدة مرات في 2014 الملسوم رقم 4 نصع على الانتخابات ولكن تم تأجيلها بعد سنة وحتى بعد 2018 عندما تم تقرير أن الاتخابات سوف تجري في ديسمبر 2018 تم تأجيلها مرة أخرى والسبب في هذا التاماطل بسيط جدا وهو ما اسميها استبداد الأقلية وجونس تورت مالية تحدث عن استبداد وتكتتورية الأقلية التي تفيد من هذه الفوضة السائدة في ليبيا التي خولت لهم تأجيل الانتخابات لسنوات عديدة ولهذا فنحن سعادة بالتنظيم هذه الانتخابات أخيرا وكذلك بالفرصة للمشاركة فيها وأنها تطلع لهذه الانتخابات وتمنى أن تكون شفافة وحرة ونزيها وأن نتأجع سيتم وكذلك مرشح أنا التزم واتزمت بهذا كتابيا

بمفردي ولكن بمساعدة من مجموعة من الشباب والشبات الليبيين وكذلك مجموعة من مستشارين والخبراء وتماكن من وضع رؤية يعني حيات يعني إعادت الحيات لليبيا وهذا هو هدفنا وهذه رؤيتنا موجودة في إحيائليبيا.com ربما يكونك بالدخول إلى هذا الموقع وتطلع على رؤيتنا وهذه الرؤية تم تطويرها من طرفي مع هد ليبيا الأدرسات المدلقدمة عامنا لسنوات عديدة على هذا المشروع البحثي حولة ليبيا حولة مستقبلها ونسائيد جدا ليقول أن هذه الرؤية تم اعتبادها أيضا من طرفي العديد من المترشحين البرلمين هي ليست فقط منصة لترشحي الشخص ولكن يتم تشاطل نفس الأفكار من طرفي العديد من المترشحين العهدر بيدون تأخير أريد أن أقول لكم أنه وتحدث معالم هذه الرؤية ومن ثم يمكن أن نفتح المجيل لأسئلة التي سوف أجيوب عنها سوف يكون عمل تفعلي وليس خطاب موجهة وبنسبة للرؤية هي رؤية تجمع بين صدق الكرامة وجميل السامي والقيام السامية لها أربع تعامات أساسية أولا مسميها ليبيا الهانئة هذه هي رؤية ليبيلاد ينعم بالسلام وينعم بجيش موحد استنادن لمخراجية لجنة 5 زياد 5 أيضا الشرطة موحدة شرطة حدود أو حلست حدود موحد وكذلك زمان عدم تدخل أي حكومات أو قوة خارجية في المشغل الليبيا ودعمة ثانية هي الليبيا الزاهرة وهنا نتحدث عن اقتصاد يركز على التهمية المستدامة ويخلق بصدس للشباب لكي يخلقوا مؤسسات صغيرة ومتوسطة ويدخلوا في شركات مع القطاع العام الذي يحتاج إلى أسلاحات كبيرة أيضا الرقمنة وأن نحاول أن نتحكم بالتطورة الجديدة بتواصل الرقم البلاكتشين وايضا حلول بمتطورة ورقمية ودعمة ثالثة في هذه الرؤية ما نسميها الليبيا السمحة وهي رؤية لليبيا سمحة وليبيا متاسمحة نسع لي موضي قدما بمسار المصالحة الوطني وعندما نتحدث عن المصالحة نتحدث عن اساس مصالحة يسع لي فهم المظالم وحلها وليس فقط تقديم التعوضات المالية كما تم القيم به في السلوات السابقة نسع للموضي قدما بمسار المصالحة من المخفرة وصفحة من الأشخاص الذين تم إذأوهم وردعمة رابعا هي ليبيا النظيفة ليس فقط من جانب البيئي ولكن نظيفة من العنف ونظيفة من الفساد أيضا وهو مشكل كبير في ليبيا وهو بمثابة مرض السلطانعة فانا وفاكم الله الذي يأكل الجسد من الداخل وأدى إلى العديد المشاكل فيهم قطاعات واسعة في ليبيا ونطلع هنا إلى ليبيا ونظيفة تدفع نفسها من الفساد ومن الجريمة ومن أيضا تجارة في البشر ومن انتهيكات في المهجرين أو المجموعة الهشة ومجموعة الظعيفة واستنادن على هذه الدعمات الأربعة قمنا بتطوير هذه الرؤية والكاملة والشملة للدولة وهي شملة لأنها مفتوحة دائما للمراجعات والنقاش والتطوير وانا دعوكم لزيارة وارسل أي اقتراح سوف يتم اخدو عفن العتبار ويتم ادخالها في صلب هذه الرؤية وسوف نحاول أن نجذر هذه الرؤية في تاريخنا في تاريخنا المتنوعة في كل ثقافات الموجودة في ليبيا المزيغ والعرب والتوارغ وإلى أخيره من الثقافات والعرقيات وكذلك انفتاح على البحر المتوسط أيضا حيائة تراث الترابط بين القرى الأوروبي والقرى الإفريقية وكذلك نركز هذه الرؤية على الإنسانية ونعترف بأن الإنسان هو تزهب هذه الرؤية وأن الإنسان هو فصدر القيمة الأسمة وأن هذه الإنسانية تلقصم إلى 50% نساء و50% رجال ونحن ملتزمون لكي نظمن بأن النساء يتحصلنا على 50% على الأقل من المناصب العلي لدينا الرؤية شبابية وتعترف بقيمة الشباب 70% بالمئة من المجتمع ولهذا سوف نضع وزراء من الشباب في وزرات وفي المناصب العلي وشباب من النساء ورجال هذه الرؤية بإيجازة أتمنى سوف تطلعون عليها بشكل أكثر استفادة ووقفنا وافتح المجال لأي أسئلة تريدون ترحها شكراً شكراً دكتور نايذ أظن أن هذه الإفتتحية كانت شملة سوف نوصل حديث عن بعض هذه النقاب سوف أحاول جمع الأسئلة لأنك تحصل على العديد من الأسئلة على الإنترنت أول سؤال ستحدث عنه وعرف هذه الأنتخابة رئاسية سوف تنظم في يوم 24 من ديسمبر هل هذه الانتخابات سوف تجري في تاريخها المحدد في رأيك وأيضا في علاقة بالانتخابات البرلمينية ما هو رأيك في هذه الانتخابات وهل ستجري في تاريخها المحدد أظن أن الشعب الليبي ورغبته واستنادن على دراسات دراسات للرأي و استخدام تقنية مختلفة وعد من المؤسسات قامت بهذا وشركات قامت بهذا وأغلبية الساحقة لللبيين أبدوا رأيا في هذه الاستطلاعات ودراسات وقالوا أنهم لا يريدون للانتخابات فقط أنهم يشددون على أهمية الانتخابات وأعبر عن أرتياحي لذلك لأن اللبيين سوف يضمنون بأنفسهم برغبتهم وعزمتهم تنظيم هذه الانتخابات وكذلك الأحزاب والتكتولات الحزبية والنقابات والجمعيات أيضا متشبثة بهذه الانتخابات والانتخابات الرئاسية والبرلمينية أيضا لأنه لأول مرة ونالك جميع بين اللبيين وكذلك المجتمع الدولي لكي تتنظم هذه الانتخابات في تاريخها المحدد وهذا ما تم تعبيره عنه في القرار الأممي القرار المجلس الأمن الأخير الذي أكد على أن الحكومة المؤقدة سوف تنتهي عدتها في 24 من ديسمبر ولا يمكن أن أي مشروعية بعد هذا التاريخ وانا الانتخابات هي الطريق الوحيدة لتجديد المشروعية في البلاد وبسبب هذا الاجماع بين رغبة اللبيين الذي يعبر عليه استفتلعات الرأي وكذلك رغبة المجتمع الدولي المعبر عنها في مجلس الأمن وكذلك بأخراجات برلين واحد في تاجره التاريخ ويجب أن تكون اجتمع باريز ويأثقون من الانتخابات سوف تجري في تاريخها المحدد وانا ستكون اتخابات رئاسية مشفوعة من انتخابات البرلمانية ونحن في حركة أحياء ليبيا نعتبر أن هذه الانتخابات يجب أن تكون متزامنا وأن أهم شيء في هذا التزام هو أن الرئيس القسم واعتماد الأساس الدستوري للبلد في نفس الوقت وهذا مهم جدا مهم جدا أن لا يكون هناك فجوة أو تأخير بين الرئيسة والبرلمان وعندما يكون هناك برلمان بدون رئيسة فالتقابد الرئيسية سوف يتم تأجيلها أو تعطيلها وانا الشكسن بالنس أو التوازن بين السلطات مهم جدا هنا ولهذا نحنون واصل ونشدد على أهمية ذلك وأن الانتخابات أو السلطة البرلمانية والتدخلت في السلطة التنفيذية ونعتبر أن الفصد بين السلطات وتمين التوازن بين السلطات ذو أهمية كبيرة جدا دو أهمية ماحورية في 2018 كان هناك وثقة مهمة جدا كانت الجسأن من الأعلان الدستوري وتم تنسيس على فصد بين السلطات بوضوح ونعتبر أن التخابات التي يستجري في نفس الوقت سوف تنتج عنها حكومة جديدة ورئاسة جديدة وبرلمان جديد وبالضافة إلى قضاء المستقل ونحن فخورون بسلطة القضائية في ليبيا ونعتبر أنها خطوة مهمة وتمثل خطوة مهمة لديمقراطية حقيقية لا يمكن فيها أن يكون هناك أي تدخل بين السلطة وأن يكون هناك التوازن فيما بينها شكراً هذه علاقة بالانتخابات في حديثاتها وكما قلت في المنحظات المبدأية وهناك مخاوف من العنف الورتبط بالانتخابات ونحن في معهدنا وفي منظمات أخرى مثلا الانتخابات الأوروبية تحدث عن نزاها التخابات وسلامتها ما هي التدبي التي يجب أن أخذ وعفاناعتبار والذي يجب أن نظمن أن الانتخابات أو سيق الانتخابات التي لا ينتهي بانتخابات يكون سليم وخالي من العنف ونالك بعد التدبي الدخلية ليبيا ليبيا مثلا إلتزام المجتمعات المحلية والمراكز الانتخاب الموجودة مركب الستسويت الموجودة دخل المجتمعات دخل المدالس وهناك مسؤولية على أعتق المجتمعات المحلية أن تضمن حماية هذه المراكز وأنها بمنع عن أي تدخل أو أي محاولة تخريب وأيضا تأمين هذه المراكز شكل المجتمعي دو أهمية محورية وكذلك إلتزام الشرطة الجهاز الشرطة وكذلك الجيش كلهم لديهم دور لتأمين الانتخابات على مستوى محلي أما على مستوى الدولي فأهم شيء وشدد على هذا ووصلت الضوء عليه بوضوح أن لا يكون هناك أي تسامح لا يكون هناك أي تسامح لأي محاولة لتعطيل أو تأجيل أو تخريب هذا المسار الانتخاب والممتحدة أو مجلس الممتحدة كان واضحا وكذلك مخرجات لقاء بريز كانوا تواضحة في صرامتها وفي العقبات التي سيتم تصيتها على كل المخاربين خسطا وإمكانوا في مستوى تنفيذة وفي مستوى تشريعي لا يجب أن يكون هناك أي تسامح مع كل هذه المحاولات اللي مسؤولة لإندلاع العنف وكان هناك خطابات من طرف بعض السياسين في السلطة الذين يحاولون التلاعب بالقنون ويحاولون استعمال خطابات الشعبوية لبث البلبلة بين الشباب ولتعطيل المسار الانتخاب وهذا لا يجب التسامح معه وقبوله نرى أيضا شخاص يحاولون إعادة تسميم القوانين لكي يحلوا شكل أنهم لم يقوموا بتخديم استقالاتهم في التوقيت ونرى أيضا بعض الأجهزة تعتبر الانفسها تأجهزة تشريعية موازية وتهدد باستعمال القوة وتقول أنا لديها قوة وراءة لكي تهر تقوم بتهريب وترهيب عفوان الانتخابات ونرى أيضا خطابات في الفيسبوك وفي منات أخرى تهدد رئيس مفوضية ومفوضية الانتخابات لا يجب التسامح مع هذه الخطابات المهديدة والمقوضة للمسار وأيضا شخص يتفوهون بهذه الفضاعات يجبوا المحاصراتهم في ليبيا وخارجها وأظن أن هذا التزام المشترك بالانتخابات بالإضافة إلى عملية الرسط والمتابع دولية وقوبات على المخاربين أمراني مهمان وضروريين لكي نظمنة انتخابات سليمة وحرة وتجري في وقتها المحادة شكرا كما قلت في الافتتاحية أنا كأقدمت أوراقة رشوحكة للانتخابات رئيسية في ليبيا انتم تصميت وانتمعت مادوك كرائيس ونفستها بالرئيسة هل لديك فلسفة خاصة بالقيادة بقيادة ليبيا أظن أنقيادة ليبيا في هذه المرحلة أول رئيسة منتخبة يجب أن تكون قائمة على التسامح على التعاضف وعلى المصالحة قبل أي شيء آخر لقد عانينا من التشظي بسبب الحرب والنزاع الداخلي والناس يتذكرون النزاع الأخيرة والحرب الأخيرة ولكن هناك 10 نزاعات مسلحة منذ الثورة قسمت البلاد وتسببت في فاصل وتشبي المجتمعات والأفراد أيضا حتى دخل نفس العائلة وهذا الانقسام على مستوى النسيج الإجتماعي يمثل أهم تحدي للرئيس القادم وظنوا أن الرئيسة يجب أن يكون أو رئيس يجب أن يكون مهتم ومن شغل بالمصالحة الوطنية مصالحة الوطنية ليست قائمة على تقديم أموال أو تقديم تعوضات للمظلومين ولكن يجب أن تكون قادمة على الحقيقة والتسامح ومحاولة سلاحة النسيج الإجتماعي من خلال إليات معروفة للليبيين ومن المثير الأهتمام أنه في العشر السنوات أو الحدش عشر سنة الأخيرة كل مبادرات السلام التي يتناجحت كانت قائمة على ممالسات السلام متوارثة من أجيال وهنا نتحدث عن الحكماء وعن الوجهاء وكذلك حتى نسأل عبنة دورا مهمة في المصالحة ولي أتوسط في مسارات حوار ومسارات إرساء سلام في هذا البلد الشاسع ضو الجراح العميق ويجب أن نستغل هذه الخبرات وخبرتها أولئي صنعة السلام الذي لم يتم الاحتفاء بهم ولم يتم تقديم أو تقدير مجوداتهم ويجب أن نقدر هذه المجودات من خلال ليجان ومن خلال مجموعة من المصالحين ومن المياسرين ويجب أن نقوم بسرحة هذا وأيضا مساهمة في تعافي البلد الرئاس كما قلت يجب أن تقوم بهذا يجب أن تكون قائمة على إعادة توحيد ليبيا من خلال مقاربة قائمة من أو تقتلق من القاعدة إلى الأعلى واتركز على أهم قيم وأحسن القيم ليبيا بلد عميق يتمتع بقيم معميق أيضا مثل التسامح مثل التأخي والمصالحة ويجب أن نستغل أو نتستفيد من هذه القيم والمبادئ ونعطيها طبيعة تقدمية ويجب أن نقوم بإحياء هذه القيم ويجب أن نركز على السلام وليس على الحرب على الثقة وليس على الخوف هذه هي أولويةنا لا يمكن أن تكون فقط مشاعر ولكن يجب أن نعمل بجد وأن نشتهد خاصة على المستوى الإقتصادي لكي تضمن رفاهية الجميع والزهار الجميع وليس فقط أقلية تستغل وتسرق ثروات البلاد ولهذا يجب أن نستغل هذه الموارد الموارد النفط والغاس كذلك موارد أخرى مثل تاقة شمسية والتاقة رياحة وكذلك منهجم وبطبع التراث الثقافي ثري خاصة للآثار الرومانية والأغريقية وكي حتى مناطق تعود لما قبل التاريخ يجب أن نستغل كل هذا ونقوم بخلق ثروة وازهار لعائلات والشباب ونخلق عائلات سعيدة وأطفال سعادية حصلون على أحسن تعليم وتحسن صحة وهذا الزهار يأتي فقط من خلال اقتصاد مزدهر وكذلك حوكم رشيدة تقوم على قوانين واضحة وقوانين جيدة وكذلك استعمال تكنولوجيا المتطورة لضمان العمل بدون إضعت أي وقت والأسف أضعن الكثير من الوقت ولهذا يجب أن نستفيد من الوقت بشكل فعال وناجع وأن نستفيد أيضا من النساء والرجال ومن تكنولجية اليوم والغد وبناء مستقبل مشترك ولهذا ولخص هذة هي الرئاسة يجب أن تقوم بتضميد جراح ليبيام خلال قيام مثل التسامح والتأخي والمصالحة وكذلك استعمال تكنولوجيا المتطورة وبناء اقتصاد مستدام ويضمن نمو مستدام لأنساء ورجال في ليبيا لكي نخلق مستقبل جديدا للبلاد شكرا جزيلا تحدثت في السابق عن هذه الرؤية رؤية الحياة ليبيا وأنا أول دعامة متصلة بتوحيد ليبيا وهناك ما هو مرتبط بتوحيد المؤسسات وهناك التوحيد المواطنين التوحيد الشعب على اختلاف في ثقافاتهم ومشاربهم هل بيمكنك تتحدث أكثر عن كيفية تنفيذ ذلك وكيف يمكن ضمان هذا التوحيد هناك مخاف أيضا من مركزية الحكومة في ليبيا كيف تنظر إلى اللى مركزية وكيف تنظر إلى سلطات في كامل الحق ليبيا بطريقة اللى مركزية شكرا على هذا السؤال مارك هذا السؤال مهم شدا وعاصمة تسمى طرابلوس وطرابلوس تريبولي يعني ثلث مدن كيات ولبسس ولبسس ماكنة وبدينة صبراتة وتم تجميعها في مدنة واحدة اسم طرابلوس طريبولي وسيري لانكة تسمى أيضا بنتور بوليس خمس مدن أنا أقولك خمس مدن كلاسيكية وفي تاريخ ليبيا بوليس أو مدينة هي أساس للعمل سياسي لقرون وليس فقط قبل التاريخ ولكن حتى في القرون الوسطة وابنو خلدون يتحدث عن هذا في المقدمة وإذا منظرنا لأي مجتمع في ليبيا سنرى أن هناك فوسي فوسي من ثقافات المختلفة على مستوى المحل على مستوى الشيرا على مستوى المنطقة حتى دخل طرابلوس سوق الجمعة له تقافته المدينة القديمة لها تقافته إلى آخره ولهذا فحتى وحات الصحر الجالو والجنوب في مناطق نائية مثل الغريفة أو غات المدينة التاريخية وغدامس مرزق لهم تاريخ ثري جدا يستحق التقدير والاحترام هذه مدينة في النفوسة وفي ثقافة الأميزيغية في القترون وأيضا المجتمع التبو ومناطق أخرى عميقة في ليبيا في ثقافة التوارج إلى آخره ما يجب أن نقوم به هو أن نحترم هذه ثقافات المحلية مهمة جدا يجب أيضا أن نظمن أن الحوكة ما تحدث وتركز على المستوى محلي ويجب أن نهتم بهذه المعلومات التاريخية أن نحترم خصوصيات وفرادت هذه المجتمعات المحلية وأن نعطي ونخصص الميزانيات بهذه البلدية وليس فقط لفرد الذي يمكن أن يكون فاسدا كل الأموال ولكن لمجلس في الولاية أو لمجلس المحل لكي يمكن أن يأخذ قرارات مشتركة حول كيفية أنفق هذه الأموال الحكومة المركزية يمكن أن تضمن الجودة ويمكن أن تتضع المعيير وتضع الإجراءات ويمكن أن تقوم بعملية رست ومهتب عالية كي تضمن أن هناك مساوات وأنصاف وأن هناك عمليات مناقصة فرد ونزيها وأن هذه الممارسات تنقى بنفسها عن الفساد وعن التهميش وعن أقصاء الأقلية هذا هو دور الحكومة المركزية ولكن ليس دور حكومة المركزية أن تسود على الجميع وتتحكم في الجميع وأن تجعل الجميع يأتي إلى العاصمة لكي يقوم بالعمل يجمع أن يتمكن من العمل في بحالاتهم وفي بلديةهم وبالتكولوجيا الجديدة يمكن هذه الخدمات ولي كل احتياجات الموطنية أن يتم تقديمها بشكل سريع وناجع إذا لم يكن لدينا بلدية قوية وأيضا أن نستعمل ونستغل التكنولوجيا مثل شباكات متطورة بلوكتشين ورسم الخرائط بشكل براقم وكذلك عمليات أخرى متطورة يمكن من خلالها أن هذه البلدية التومس جيفرسون تحدث عن دولات دول صغيرة كأساسة للديموقراطية وإذا ما نظرنا إلى تاريخ أمريكا المتحدة الأمريكية سأرى أن أهم الممارسات لديموقراطية كانت في the town hall وفي قصر البلدية في البلدية النائية والصغيرة هنا يتم تركيز يقرروا مستقبلاهم بشكل مشترك ويقومون بتحديث الأنفاقات بشكل مشترك واضن أن هذه المركزية هي أهم مصدر للنزاع في ليبيا وهم مصدر للتواصل واضن أنه يجب أن نقوم بضمين الأمركزية ولكن مع حكومة ملتزمة وحكومة مسؤولة تحافظ على على مقايس الجودة وعلى معاير يتم في علاقة بالمسؤولية البقية ومواطنين واضن أن هذا هو الخليط وبتوليفة الجيدة حكومة مركزية ومركزية تضمن الجودة وتضمن المعير ومقايس واضن أنه تم القيام بمجودات وخطة كبيرة في هذا الإطار المانية وهولندا تعمل على الدعم وكذلك الفرنسة ونحن فخورون في ليبيا في قاناتنا ليبيا channel لنقدم برنامج خاص بالبلديات يركز على عمل البلديات ولدينا قمنا بأكثر من ألف حصة وذهبنا إلى هذه البلديات وستمعنا في أجانتهم وكان هناك برامج دعم في هذا الإطار ظنوا أن هذه أهم أولوية بالنسبة لنائع نظب أن هذه البرامج يتم القيام بها بشكل ويسع مع قيام الحكومة المركزية بضمن الجودة الآن أريد أن أحدث عن مسألة العدل الإنتيقالية هناك بعض الأشخاص أسأل أنا أقول أن يجب أن يكون هناك عفن عفن تشريعي عام ونقف السرعات واحتقانات الماضي ولكن هناك بعض الأشخاص يقولون أن الذين أعتدوا فيه السابقة والذين قاموا باعتداء أن يجب أن يتم محاسبتهم إذا أننا في ياليبيا أظن أننا كانت لدينا أو شاهدنا عدالة إنتقائية وهناك عدة أما الشاكل وعندما يتم الإنتقاء العدال وتكون عدالة إنتقائية فأن هذا ليمكن أن نسميه بالعدال وأظن أن إذا كان هناك مظلم ولا يتم العفو عنها فأن هذا سيؤدي إلى مظلم أخرى وأن يجب أن نقول أن المعانات مظلمة هذه المجتمعات وهذا المجتمع غير مهم مقرنة بمظلمة الظلمية التي يشاهدتها مجتمعات أخرى وأظن أن هذا قد يؤدي إلى مظلم أكد في ليبيا أن هناك عدل في العدالة نعم يجب أن لا يجب أن يكون هناك مجتمعات أو قبائل منتصرة وقبائل مهزومة يجب أن تكون العدالة الشملة لكل الليبيين أيضا لا يجب أن نقول أن أسخاص وهذه الحرب هم ضحاية وأسخاص الحرب أبرياء أو هم المنتصرون أو هؤلاء هذه الفئة هي على حق أخرى على باطل ليس هناك منتصر وليس هناك منهزم كانت كل الحروب تعتبروا حروبا فضعة كله على شخص يعنونا من الشركة في الحروب الذي هم يعنونا في الصدمات إذا ما أشاهدنا في بعض الخطابات في في الفيسبوك أو منصة التواصل الإجتماعي فيمكن أن ترى هناك إختلافات كثيرة حتى في تصحات وطعاليقي الأشخاصي حول العدالة لذلك الدولة يجب أن تتكفل الدولة بهذه المظالم عندما نتحدث عن العدالة الإنتقالية لا يجب أن تكون قانونية ولكن يجب أن تخرج من قانون وهذا هو أصل العدالة لكن لا يجب أن تكون إنتقالية وإختيارية في بعض الهيئات تغطت مسألة العدالة الإجتماعية ولكن هناك تفضيل بعض المجتمعات على مجتمعات أخرى ولكن عندما كانت هناك إنتهاكات العبوغ الإنسان يجب أن يتم رفضها ومنوها على قدم المساوت وكل الجراء والإعتادات يجب أن يكون فيها التمييز فيما يتعلق وبالمسالحة فإن المجتمعات التي عانت من حدتي مظالم فيما إسقاتوا المسالحة عليها إسقاتا ولكن يجبوا طلب واستشارتها إذا كانت تتمنى تكون هناك مسالحة لا يجب أن يكون هناك شيء بالإلزام أو بالفرض للأسف العدالة الإجتماعية في السابق كانت انتقائية في الأساس حتى أنها كانت من الفساد ثم كانت هناك التعوضات وأصبحت هناك مقايضات بهذه التعوضات لذلك العدال الإجتماعية ليجب أن تكون سكن على بياض لبعض الفئات لبعض المجتمعات لن تكون بالأمر سهل لن تخذ مننا سنوات عديدة ولكن يجب أن نبدأ فيها يوم المه الآن أمروا إلى مسألتي الأشقوني الخارجية إذا ماذا فيما يتعلق مع المقاتلين الأجانب ماذا يجب علينا أن نفعل حيا لهم أظنوا أن ليبيا مفتوحة ليكل ليبيا ليكل ليبيين ويمكنوا أن نتحدث عن الخمسة خمسة سواء في الجنوب وعملت هذه الألجنة ليست فقط على وقفة أتلاقي النار ولكن من بني أساسياتي لحياة أساسية حياة السياسية في ليبيا لذلك يجب أن كل ليبيين ينتمون إلى ليبي ونعترفها بوطنياتهم وانتماعهم لدولة مختلفة المجتمعات كلهم ليبيين لذلك يجب أن ندوط خمسة هي أساسياتي السلام الذي نعمل وأنصل إلى إلهي في المستقبل فيما يتعلق بيا السلام والوحدة في ليبيا ومتعلق بيا الملشية إذا كيف يمكن القادة المستقبلية نقوم بتفكي هذه الملشية كيف سيتم تشيكهم أو إدماجهم في المؤسسة الأمنية هناك الفيلاسوفة الذي تحدث عن التصنيف وعندما نبدأ في التفكير في التصنيف وأن هذا النوع من الأحكامة المسبقة ولتي يمكن أن تكون عنيفة ولتي يمكن أن تكون ببأس في ليبيا الملئة التتميز بأتنوعم هناك بعض المجموعة المسله فقد مجرد المافيا لهم يعملون على التهريب ولو يتجرب البشر وعندما بعض المجموعة المسلحة فقط مجموعة من الشباب الذين يحملوا يسعون إلى حماية أنفسهم ويحمون أوطارهم أو أماكنهم أو عائلتهم لذلك يجب أن يكون هناك تصيف واضحة لهذه المجموعة ويجب أن يكون هناك طريقة واضحة في كيفية إدماجهم في المؤسسة الأمنية بطبيعة الحال يجب أن يكون هناك رفض كامل لأي مجموعة غير قانونية أو خارجة عن المؤسسة العسكارية يجب أن نفكر أن مؤسستنا العسكارية يجب أن تكون مهيكلة ومنظمة هناك بعض الأشخاص في السابقة الذين تحصلوا على أجورا عالية لقتل يبينا أخرين لذلك أول شيء يجب أن نعمل عليه وتفكيكوا هذه المجموعة المسلحة يجب أن يكون هناك نوع من التصنيف النوعي لهذه المجموعة المسلحة ويجب أن يتم وضع كلها في نفس السلحة يجب أن يكون هناك تخريط لكل هذه المجموعة المسلحة هناك بعض المجموعة التي تم مدها بالنصيحة لإعادة أسلحاتها ولكنها لم تستمع لذلك بذلك نحن الآن نفكر في إعادتي بناء مؤسستنا الأمنية والعسكارية يجب أن تكون مهيكلة ومنظمة وولئة لها الوطن يجب أن يكون هناك قوة عسكارية أو مؤسسة عسكارية أو أمنية لا تكون موالية لمنطقة على حسب مراتق أخرى يجب أن يكون هناك مؤسسة عسكارية تحمل كامل بقائه الليبيا ولكن يجب أن نصلط الضوء على أن الليبيا مليئة بلمقاتلين الأجانب والمليشيات الأجانب كلهم يجب أن يغادر الليبيا إذا كانت أهدافهم هي التغريب والحروب ويبقى في الليبيا إلا المؤسسة العسكارية الليبية التي تحمي الليبيا أيضا في مدعى القوة بمنظمة الخمسة زائد خمسة يجب أن لا يكون من دولة الحساب دولة أخرى ولكن يجب أن يكون برعاية الأمم المتحدة ولكن مجددا وقولوا وإصلط الضوء على فكرة أن كل المقاتلين أو المليشيات الأجانب يجب أن يغادر الليبيا وغادر الليبيا كليا ولا يبقى في الليبيا إلا مؤسسة عسكارية موحدة ولأها للوطن نحن نريد أن تكون أولدين مؤسسة عسكارية تحمي الإقتصادي الليب ولكن كل المجموعة التي جاءت منها الجنوب أو من الغرب أو من الشرق يجب أن يتم تعود إلى أولدانها كل المرتزقة كل المقاتلين الأجانب كل المليشيات يجب أن يغادر الليبيا كل شبر من أشر الليبيا يجب أن لا يتوجد فيه إلا المؤسسة العسكارية الليبيا بالأساس ونفكر بالأساس في كيفية إعادة هيكلتها وإعادة التنفيمها يجب أن نفكر في أسس صلبة لإعادة هيكلة مؤسسة الأمنية لا يجب أن يتم تسييسها ولكن يجب أن تكون كم أسسة حكمية الليبيا بالأساس الولاقة إما ليس لحزب سياسي أو لطرف سياسي معين ولكن لليبيا إذا كانت لدينا عدت من الأسئلة ولكن الآن سنمروا إلى الأسئلة التي جاءتنا في خمتي الدردشة ووصلتنا عدت كبير من الأسئلة أو أولوها حول السيف الإسلام القذافية والذي كان لديه عدتها قضايا في محكمات الجنيات الدولية لان كيف ترى هذا الترشحم الليبيا هي دولة سيادة ولديها إرادتها السياسية المستقلم وفيما يتعلقوا بهذه الحالة وكل حالة الأخرى وكل المترشحين أن كل الشخص يجب أن يلتزم بقوانين الليبيا بالكامل القانون الليبي هو الذي يقرر من يشارك ومن لا يشارك ونحن كلنا كمترشحين يجب أن يلتزم بالقانون الليبي وأظنوا أن هيئة الإنتخابات هيئة مستقلة بالأساسة أظنوا أن نظام القضائي أو هيكل القضائي الليبي هيكل مستقل أساسة ويمكن وأنه علق على أي مترشح ما إن كان يستطيع الترشح أو كلنا قمنا بتقديمي أو راقنا وثائه وثائقنا سيف الإسلام قدمه وثائقه وانا أيضا قدمت وثائقنا في طربلوس وفي بنغازي اليوم ويألأمس وكل وثائق المترشحين يجب أن يتم رسالها للهئة هيئة الإنتخابات ثم كل هذه الوثائق يجب أن يتم يحالتها للهيكل القضائي الليبي أو إلى المدة العام وهو القلن الليبي هو الذي يقرر ما إن كان هذا الشخص يجب أو يمكن له أن يترشح أم لا وانا كشخص مترشح وبقيت المترشحين يجب كلنا أن نستقب أن نرحب بكل قرارات السلطة القضائية وهيئة الإنتخابات يجب أن لا يتم الشخص أنتها يجب أن يكون أن تكون الهيئة والنظام الهيئة الجهاز القضائي الليبي محيداً قدر الإمكان ويجب أن يكون هناك احترام كبير لمختلف القرارات لذلك كل عملية الشخص تؤدي إلى مزيد من الكره في اللبيا إذن إذك إجابة لسؤالك هو احترام القانون قام بالترشح أرسل وثائقه وإن تم قبول وثائقه ولم يكون هناك أي احترام فن على بقية المترشحين يجب أن يحترم القرارات ويجب على كل اللبين احترام القرارات أيضاً الصدر من مجلس النواب كبير المسلم هل تعتقد أن المشكلة في المشكلة الإسلامية يفعلها للمشكلة الإسلامية في المشكلة المسلمية أو يوجد شيء لتفعله مع الإسلام هل تعتقد أن أو هل توافق أن الإسلام أو الفكرة الغربية التي تأتي الأفكار الغربية التي تأتي من الدولة الغربية حول الإسلام وربما بعض الأفكار المسبق حول الجمعات الإسلامية أو الإخواني المسلمين يمكن أن أقول لك أن هذا سؤال صعب نوعاً ما أقول لك أن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم في المدينة ونرى كيف كان سياسات هو في المدينة وإذا ما رأينا إلى تمس جيفرسن حول كيف يأتي القيام التي يجب ضهور تعميمها من أجل تكريسي مختلف مبادئات ديمقراتية في أولي أيام أيام الدولة يمكن أن أقول لك كلها فيها قيام من قيام الإسلام لدينا المذهب الملكي أو في الفقه الفقه السياسي الإسلامي ونرى أنا أساسيات الديمقراتية ليغط عرض البتة مع مبادئ الإسلام إذا ما رأينا مبادئ تمس جيفرسن في بقية عدد علماء أخرين وحتى العلماء الذين ذهبوا إلى الأندلس وقموا بفتحها فإن الشلاء يتقسمون عدد مبادئة وكأن أظنوا أن هناك مشكلة بين الديمقراتية ومبادئي الإسلام ولكن المشكلة في الإنسان في حدثاتهم والنازع والاستبدادية متواجد في الكائن البشري بقطع النظر عن الديمقراتية وعلى الإسلام رأينا في حدثة في إيطاليا والمانيا وإسبانيا والفضائي التي حدثت الزد الإنسانية دائما الإنسان يميلوا إلى الاستبدادية وإلى عملية وقمع الفئات الأخرى ولكن يجب أن تكون هناك أليات في كيفية التكريس مبادئة الديمقراتية سواء كانت في الثقافة البودية أو الثقافة الإسلامية أو الثقافة المسيحية لذلك بعض الفضاء التي حدثت أو التي ارتكبتها بعض لدى مطول الإسلامي بسلة ولكنها تتعلقوا بهذا الوازعي الاستبدادين التي قلت ذكت منه قليل أظنوا أيضا بعض من جوانب العربي فيهم تشبه بعض سيتي الفشية في أي كيف شخص يحكم في الأقليات وهذا حدث أظنه في ليبياب أن مثل المؤسسة والبنك المركزية تم الصيطرة وصيطرة عليها من قبل فيئة المعالحساب ببقية الفئات الأخرى لذلك الحاجة إلى انتخابات رئاسية هو كيفية النسعي وطمس كل مظاهري استبداد أقلية على حسابي الأقلية وطبيعة الحالي هناك يمكن أن نقول مشاهد شديدة لكيفية استبداد بعض الفئات على غيراري كلمة الشهيرة التوافق نراه في وسائل العلم أن هناك التوافق بين مجموعة ولكن هذا التوافق يرتدي جبة الاستبداد والقمع ولكن هو يحاول دائما أي بينا نفسه أن هناك اتفاق بين مجموعة وأن التقصر بيعين وليس هناك أي مشاكل لذلك مجددا أن كل مختلف مظاهري الاستبداد والقمع لا رسل ديها أي علاقة بالإسلام أو المسيحية أو البودي أو بأي عقدة أو أي عقدة مع أساس الدمقراتية هو الحرية المتأصلة لكل إنسان يعيش في ليبي أو خارج ليبي أو في أي مكان في شخص يمكن أن يتم استعمالها كأتات للتكريسي الدمقراتية كل شخص يشبو لدما احترامه كشخص لديه لديه حريات ولديه كرامة أخذها بالسلقة من ولديه ومن دولتي ولا يمكن لأي شخص انتزاعه نقول

DEF CON 26 CAR HACKING VILLAGE - KEVIN2600 - Grand Theft Auto Digital Key Hacking
The security of automobiles accesses control system is a topic often discussed. Today's vehicles rely on key-fob control modules, to ensure the vehicle is accessible to authorized users only. While most traditional automobile key-fob systems have been shown to be insecure in the past, here comes a game changer. Instead of the regular key-fob system, some car owners will be able to access their vehicle by having their smartphone authenticate as a digital car key. In this talk, we will reveal the research and attacks for one of the digital car key system in the current market. By investigating how these features work, and how to exploit it through different possibilities of attack vectors, we will demonstrate the security limitations of such system. By the end of this talk, the attendees will not only understand how to exploit these systems, but also which tools can be used to achieve our goals.

So, today I'd like to share with you guys some of the research results for one of the digital car key system. Yeah, so. Okay, I have to go just this way. Yeah, so. Who am I? My name is Kevin. Yeah, you can follow me on Twitter. It's welcome. I'm a security researcher from InGeek SecurityCon consultant. We are based in Shanghai. We're dedicated to automotive security research. And my particular area is focused on wireless and embedded systems. Yeah, so. And today's agenda is going to be like this. First, I'm going to do a very quick introduction about key for one of one. And then I will walk through the structure and the functionality of our target today. It's called Army Key. And Army Key is also called, aka digital car keys. And then I will do some analytics and introduce a tag of actors on this Army Key system. So basically I will start from physical layer and I know where to take a look a little bit about RF layer. And we take a look at the application. Eventually, let's see how can we do some Bluetooth sniffing and decrypt the pocket. So introduction. I think the car key fob is one of the most common items we can find in our pocket. So in a very early age, the car keys only really just rely on the mechanical key. And then they implement some kind of remote key entry. So it's actually start with some kind of infrared and then move on to RF fixed code and then the rolling code. And in order to do some authentication, they also implement something called RFID chip inside your car keys. And then there's a new game changer coming in. So basically those manufacturers start to implement some kind of car key system that really just rely on mobile phones. So yeah, this is going to be a new trend. For example, if you're buying a new Tesla Model 3, you won't have any actual physical key anymore. They're going to provide you RFID tag. And also, really, you're going to download the application from them and you can unlock a star engine from your mobile phones. Sorry, that was not my laptop. So now Tesla is not the only manufacturer doing that. Actually, it's everybody doing this for the future cars. So like Volvo, like Benz, they're also doing this kind of thing, right? So that's going to be a new trend. And now, all has been done in so far. For the past few years, we have looked at many different case studies to dedicate to the car key file studies. So here are at least some of them as an example. For example, in the early age of 2008, the rolling co-organization called key lock has been cracked. And also, there's a transparent organization as high-tech, too, also been cracked. And also Sammy, he's our hero, as always. He presented a talk in DevCon a few years ago. Basically, he found a trick called rolling jump that basically you can use a lot to kind of bypass the rolling co-organization mechanism. Now, listen, in 2015, there's some new attack veteran came out. I'm going to introduce a little bit more on these two details. So basically, a researcher from Germany, he found a way to hack your BNW through a cellular network. And then in England, there's a company from Pentas Partners. They are research and found out how can they hack the Wi-Fi access point through your Mitsubishi Outlanders. Oh, okay, sorry. All right. Yeah, so, yeah, those are the attack veterans not just only focused on your key file anymore. So it's actually involved even more attack veterans. So, yeah, here's the details regarding the BNW connect drive. So Banksy is a German researcher. He's able to set up a fake base station. So it's like a similar cellular network. Now, really, the vulnerable design here is BNW is really around HTTP to communicate back to the backend server. So he's able to decrypt the reverse engineer and decrypt the traffic and set up the fake base station in order to unlock the BNW connect drive, right? So, and then here's another case study. In 2016, Pentas Partners, the researcher, they were able to crack the Wi-Fi access point provided by your Outlander cars. And once they connect to your car and really reverse engineer protocols, now they're able to do a lot of cool things, like turn off your air-condition heating and the alarms, right? That's the scary part. So, I would say the new trend coming, there's always going to be some new hacks, right? So, now let's take a look at our main target today. It's called AmiKey. Yeah. The AmiKey, aka digital car keys, is invested by a company called Xiaomi from China. Basically, this device here is what it does is it enables some of the old car model become like smart cars. So, basically you can use this device to connect to your car and you can unlock and start an engine through mobile phones, right? Yeah. Here's some of the highlights for the features. So, yeah. So, this device is really rely on Bluetooth low energy and they can, as I said, they can lock and unlock your cars. And one of the interesting feature I found regarding to any other small locks is the key sharing features. And this is really advantage, I think, this screen sheet of old type of car key of systems is sharing. You can share to different users, your friends, even you are in different countries, right? So, you take the picture down below. That's how you connect your AmiKey to your cars. So, you have to put left your AmiKey always left inside your cars, right? And once, when you come to a car, you want to open it, you just pairing with the AmiKey with your Bluetooth. And then you send an unlocking command. AmiKey will send another RF signal in order to unlock the car, right? So, the components of AmiKey is like this. As you can see, it's quite simple. It's only really just a few items here. It's one of the blank key. And then you see the little thing in the middle is that that's the main board of AmiKey. And then there's another square one. It's called an AmiKey sensor. So, it's very simple components, right? So, here's how you're going to talk the AmiKey really works. First, you need to download some application from AmiKey. And you do a normal process, sorry. You do a normal process like you duplicate your original key, mechanic keys, and you scan the barcode on your AmiKey in order to get an activation code. Then once you put an activation code into the application, then you are binding your application with this AmiKey. And then you can log in to the AmiKey through booters. And from there, you can log and unlock. Send a lock and unlock command to the AmiKey. And just like any other key duplicating process, the very last stage is you need to register your AmiKey to the car. It's just like if you lost your original car key, you go to the car dealer, you do the same thing. You need to register your new key to your car, right? As AmiKey claimed, they are supporting quite a lot different brand of the car models. Now remember, those car models are not very high-end recent car models. Their targeting in the market is like an old car, an old model of cars, right? Because those cars usually don't have those fancy features. But if you want to have some nice features, you probably can buy some AmiKey, right? So I think that's how the marketing strategy is. So yeah, as you can see, they are supporting. But those models are very common, like Volkswagen, Hyundai, Ford, right? Let's take a look inside, right? From a hacker perspective, we don't care how many models they are really supporting. We really care about how they work, right? So I think the very first stage when you... This is not just applied to AmiKey. I think it's applied to any other embedded systems. The first thing when you get your target, you want to get as much information as possible. Now, sometimes when you get some black box of your target, you have no idea at all about your target. So I think the best practice is if you are able to access some kind of X-ray machine, you take a picture to look inside. Now, the reason why we're doing that is to see if your target has an... implement some kind of protection mechanism inside, right? Sometimes if they do, when you open a case, you will make damage, right? So, yeah, we take a look through X-ray machine, and we have found there's actually just only two screws. They don't implement any actual protection mechanism, but still this is the best good practice, right? It's not very sturdy, but yeah, good to have. Yeah, so we can go ahead and open it up. And this amic-key system structure is very simple. They only have two boards inside. As you can see, the yellow board, the yellow one, and there's a green one. And the picture in the middle is actually the backside of the green board. This one is just connected back to the yellow board. So, when we open up the amic-keys, we want to see some details, right? The deep details. So, I think people are more familiar with reverse engineering, those hardware or embedded systems. The first thing we are going to look for is the chip model. So, from there, we can find some more details, right? So, for the amic-key, the nicely labeled chip model is CC2640. And when we Google it, we find out this is actually a Bluetooth module, right? So, and then we Google another green board. It's actually called NSP61X0915, and this is an RF module. So, basically, we can use it on just like your actual RF car keys. Now, there's one thing different here is this RF module is really very different car models, right? So, not again. Sorry, really apologize. Yeah, and also, if you have ever done some RF hacking, you will know the first thing we always going to look is something called FCCID. But since this amic-key is very dedicated to the Chinese market, they have similar system. It's called CMITID, but it's just equivalent to FCCID. So, we type into the database. We can find more details regarding this device. Now, there's one thing interesting though. You remember, there's a little square device beside the amic-key main board. It's called a sensor. And when I open it, we find out the chip type is SYD8801. Now, I don't know why the amic-key does this. The functionality of this sensor is unknown, right? I go through the menus, I go through the applications, I go through our official website. They have not any detail mentioned. What do we do with this one? And we can get amic-key's work even without this one. So, it's really strange that they have this device here. So, maybe they are just implementing this for future use. So, they send you in advance, right? So, they don't need to send you again. So, I open it up. It's really just another Bluetooth module. So, I connect into it to try to get some more details. And as we can see, this is something called amic-key smart key sensors. And there's some interesting UID here. So, since we cannot find more details, so, why not just go deeper? So, I take a look at the data sheet of this particular chip. And I try to connect, since from the data sheet, we find out it's actually supporting UART, SPI, all those common protocols. So, I connect into it and try to find if there's a hint of what it may do. But I cannot find much useful information here. But since this device is not really useful for hacking the actual amic-key, so I just leave there for a moment. Maybe in the future, if they actually implement and they update some information, we can always go back to take a look at it. So, now we actually spend most time on the main board of the amic-key. So, we take a look first at the RF module. In the back side of the RF green board, let's take it later there. So, they have nicely labeled the value on it. So, we can simply do some simple math to find out the... seems like a potential frequency range and a bit rate, something like that. But we need to verify it, right? So, this is a very simple setup like this. We're using an SDR device and we connect to an antenna and then we just simply press the lock or unlock buttons, try to receive some signals to see if the configuration is correct. So, I'm using SDR hack RF here, but it doesn't really just hack RF. We use RF where we want. So, as you can see, when I press the button, yeah, there's the peaks coming up. So, definitely it is the 433.9 MHz range. So, the configuration is correct. Now, we also take a look at some RF... Brutus module. Brutus module is actually... we spend the most time to... in order to hack the Rami key. So, what we can do... the first one we try to connect in your Brutus module is to do some recon operation, right? So, we can use an application... like light blue or RF connect. Yeah, really here just try to find out as much as possible. So, first we can see... we actually always broadcast the Brutus MAC address. So, that means we... potentially we may be able to track you. And also, the other key information details here is those UUIDs, right? And if you ever have done Brutus hacking, then you will know those UUIDs are really key things to... for you, right? Now, we... Oh, come on. Yeah, so... the light blue or RF connect is not the only thing that application you can use to talk to your Brutus devices. If we want to more interactive... we can always use the application GATU to get active with your target. So, here I list all the UUIDs here from the admin key, right? Yeah, so... Okay, so... and also if we want to see more details, we also can... Now, the last feature from the Android 4.4 above in the developer mode, there's a function you can enable Brutus Damp. So, basically, you can see all the traffic... interactive traffic... from the log file. And we can reloading this log file into a wire shock, and then we can... we know all the details, every steps between UU Mobile Phone and your target admin key, right? So, here, we can see some response regarding admin key's battery information. So, this is the actual app. I know it's in Chinese, but I've gone to translate to English. Actually, the layout is quite simple. So, first, there's a connection. You press the buttons to connect into your admin key. And then once you connect, there's only a few functions here. So, basically, it's unlock your car and unlock it, or you open your trunk back door, something like that. It's very simple. And then, as I mentioned, the nice feature is the key sharing. You can share it with your friend, your wife, your other guys, and, yeah, so... but we want to see more, right? Turns out, admin key application, just like everybody else, they never bother to huddle in your actual code, so we can easily to see the Java by code. Now, from Java by code, it's almost like we are reading the source code. So, for example, this class here is really just an algorithm on how they're generating the UUID. So, basically, we actually spend some time here to just reading through that code to understand how admin key works, how it's functional. Yeah. Now, here's got something interesting. Yeah, so if you are able to read the Chinese, then you see that the comment is very funny, right? Yeah, basically, I think it's just maybe developer a lot of time is not very in a good mood. You actually put comments like, oh wow. Now, other than that, there's some interesting information like this URL here. Now, it actually, when I try to access this URL, it actually turns out, they have mentioned that this is a company internal log-insistence. If you are not an employee, please go away. So, I don't know why if they don't want people access it when I just don't bother to put there, right? Okay. Here, did you spot something interesting? Yeah. Like, usually, when I start to try to reverse engine some applications, I will expect to see the first thing I actually expect to see if they have enabled sub-panning or not, but turns out it's not necessarily at all. They are completely rely on HTTP, right? So, from there, since we all know HTTP is not insecure, all the information is in plain text, so they are leaking a lot of privacy information here. So, for example, this one here, probably cannot see, but it's actually your IMEI number of your mobile phones. Right? So, if people are able to sniff in with your traffic, then, yeah. Now, when we register, usually when we register a new user, they have some kind of protection called security questions in order to recover your keys in the future if you lost it. So, again, it's in HTTP. So, if you sniff in it, you are able to find other answers to those security questions, right? So, you may just impersonate this guy, the owner in the future because you already know how to recover it. So, simple summary here is the IMEI key application communicating with serve back and server is really just rely on HTTPs. So, yeah, no privacy here at all. But, there's more. So, I'm going to introduce more on this one later on. So, we'll see how this HTTP can lead us to combine your systems. Right? But, encryption. Right? Because every manufacturer always claims their product is the most secure one in the world. So, actually, in the menu, there's one Q&A kind of thing. They mention their product is rely on Brutus 4.0 and they have created their own proprietary encryption. Unique, right? Very secure. They really think they are super secure. So, they put this picture I took from their official website. They put all the fancy crypto awards on there. So, you may think, wow, this is really scary. It's just super secure. Right? Wow, okay, let's find out. Yeah, the first thing we can do is try to do some physical access. Right? Again. Okay. So, here's the thing. We can always do some old-school way, right? Now, remember, the army key by request has to be always left in the car. So, maybe, those theft, what you usually do, they can break in your glass. Right? They get it. They get your key. Your key is inside. Now, however, you cannot, because you cannot get in with your army key yet. So, what they can do is since it's also easy to open up, they don't have any production mechanism. You can simply grab a blank key. You replace the army key RF module chip in swap to the blank keys. And that way, you are able to unlock it. Or you can, during a reverse engineering process, we actually build a board to simplify the process, right? Yeah. So, here, I like to play a little demo here to see, to prove my point. Okay. Let me find it. It's not coming up. Okay. Yeah. This is actually a blank key, right? Oh, we already done the replacing process. So, yeah. Yeah. It's open, right? So, this is a simple process to prove that this replacing RF process will work. Right? Thanks. Yeah. But, you know, we're gentlemen. We shouldn't do like, you know, but safe, they don't care, right? So, yeah. Since this physical access is really just, it's really not much technical detail involved. This is violence. Let's check out some RF. Now, when I researched the RF module, I easily found some news all over on the internet. So, basically, some theft, they actually used a device called car key jammer. They used it not to prevent the owner to lock in your car, right? And they actually make a lot of money just by doing it. They even by selling those key jammer to make it for you. So, yeah. Now, here's the actually simple process, how they do it. So, they basically the theft just wait in a parking lot and waiting for some user can maybe they have something in mind and they forgot, they are in rush. They just simply press the lock button and they don't bother to check if they actually lock or not. Meanwhile, the theft, they send out RF jamming signals. So, you cannot actually unlock your cars. So, when the owner walk away, they can just open your cars and take away where they want. So, this is a very simple process. Now, and then my question is, does amicky smart enough to awarding this kind of, yeah, the tech, right? So, turns out, the amicky is actually just a one-week communication. So, basically, you're sending the signal to the yellow board to Brutus and Brutus will send another like simple post to your green board to say, okay, let's unlock it. But you never check, there is no response say if the actual signal has actually arrived in your car. So, here I make another simple demo just to prove my point. Yeah. You see the background noise is the SDR is running. So, I see when I press lock and unlock, you'll hear the signal beep and then little yellow light LED turn on. That means its operation works, right? So, yeah, to prove my point, you press button and you see the signal peaks, right? Okay. So, now I just using a yard sticker and RF card like a tool called ORK tools to just basically you can use to send in all the jumping signals, right? So, and yeah, as you can see all the the frequency band is already being jumped. Now, let's do the operation again. And you can, as you can see the LED still turn right up but there's no no signal, no details regarding the jumping. So, you cannot the owner of the amicky cannot tell if it actually works or not, right? So, basically if even amicky can in itself is a smart car key system, but they really they're just like any other origin old systems, right? Okay, what's next? Again, some is our hero, right? So, yeah, I would recommend you to take a look at his talk presentation back a few years ago in Defconn and yeah, check out the rolling code, roller jump techniques. It's very cool. But since the RF module on amicky is very different from other amikis, so my goal here is really just complete. I want to compromise the amikis. So, I don't spend, I decide not to spend much time on it, right? But here's more we can do. Key sharing analysis, right? So, here's the a nice feature regarding your key sharing. It's very simple. First, you settle the time, the name of your key you want to share. How long are you going to be last? You can also set a permanently, or you can set just like maybe one day, one month, something like that. And once you create that, you can send it. Also, this amicky has the limitation on only, you can only create a share to 20 keys to, to basically 20 users, right? So once the name is reached, you will not able to create anymore. So this is the entire process of how you can share, what it actually shared with your friends, right? So, basically you can click on share key craze you created. Then, the amicky will generally barcode here. And also, they have three other different ways to distribute those shared keys. So, basically you can send the text to your friend. You can just copy the keys and just maybe email to anyone over here. Now, there's another feature called, you can send to WeChat. WeChat is okay, WeChat is one of the most popular IM software they use in China. So, you can, you can send this key to WeChat. Now, also, I'm using the 2D barcode reader to, to, to just check out what code inside of 2D barcode turns out it's not like this. Now, then once, now this is actually the key you share with users. So the, the user, when the user get this keys, they can again put into the activation, go through the activation process and once they activated and then go to code, right? So, what could possibly go wrong? Super secure, right? Again, as I mentioned, the complete communicating process rely on HTTP. So, really, if we are doing some kind of main in the middle of anything, we can easily to get your actual key. Right? Now, the first thing when in a, in a background, the first thing I mean key does is they send your very long secure and question key, I mean key to one of the websites, and the website will short, response back a very short URL for you. And when I access the URL, again, it will just reveal the actual keys, right? So, now, this is from owner side. If you are sniffing in your, in the car owner's local network, then you will get a key. Now, what, what about if you are but, but because there are a lot of guys Oh, I would do very quick, right? Sorry about guys. Yeah, so, the user side there is very, also simple, they send you the car keys, and yeah, it's also plain text, and then you can sniffing for it, right? So, I used time stop, so I don't do much demos here. So, yeah, the very next thing you can do is, can we cancel it, right? So, if you don't want to find out that you want to cancel a key, right? So, yeah, I have to do a very quick demo here, just, so, yeah, see, I actually try to cancel it. Now, see, the, I mean keys canceled, share the keys canceled, but still, we're still able to lock and unlock the car keys. Right? Maybe it's already connected. So, I disconnect it again, and try to reconnect. It still works. Why? See, you turn on, turn off, no problem. Now, it turns out, if you go back to the owner's fund, there's actually a message here, it's what, it's actually say, you need to think in order to cancel the shared key, you need to connect, sync your admin key first, right? Now, think about this, if you already lost your car keys, cars, where the hell you can connect into the keys, right? You cannot. So, you need to be able to cancel it. Right? Simple, very interesting logic here. Again, right? So, if we cannot cancel it, can we wait? Because there's timing, right? If you, if you are not set up permanently, there's not, so maybe we can just wait until that expired, right? Okay. Just very, very quick, almost there, right? Yeah, so, here again, I try to find out if we can bypass those timing, sharing issues, right? So, see, as you can see here, it's telling me that times already expired, and that actually shared time is actually 1.30, right? A.M. in the morning, yeah, okay, and when, when you share to the user, you have not, you don't have much function to do, just lock and unlock. So, again, we're still able to lock and unlock, right? Even the time expired, so disconnect, connect again, still function, right? Unlock, lock, yeah, just, um, so, um, just to confirm, now time is like 1.43 already, it's way past the time, right? So, again, when time expired, you have to connect to your original car keys to, in order to update information, this car is expired. What the hell? You cannot. So, which means your key sharing expired, it will never expire, right? Your last key, here you go. Okay. Okay. Just sniffing the traffic and decryption, right? That's the interesting part. So, yeah, where's the security encryption they're talking about? So, basically, we're not analyzing through the wire shock. They, they, they sent some, this is interesting information. The first step, they send some, seems like send some command to your key and the key will respond some random values here. And then the following is, it's a very long, it's actually in total 70 bytes of the, some kind of, I don't know encryption strings, maybe. So, yeah, because, yeah, okay. So, and then you, and when I try to lock and unlock and then we're all three times and I can't see this fixed value, always gonna see this fixed value. The reason they send it two times is they may probably simulate the press and release movement, right? So, that's why they send two values to your UIDs. Okay. So, once we have the value, actually, can we unlock it? Actually, it's not. We have actually failed with it. So, actually turns out, in order to lock, unlock your key, it's actually a kind of locking process. So, yeah, so I take a look very quickly the locking process is actually locked. So, we have details regarding all the parameters we need for locking through your system. And the, yeah, from the picture here, we really see the secure, super secure algorithm is here, XOR. We see XOR operation all over the place. Now, turns out the locking protocol is really like working like this. We fetch, they fetch a value to the server and get a random value key and then it can curate it and it runs about, it runs up to make an encryption lock in pocket. Now, if everything works fine, it will respond to a status code, okay? Now, really, when they look deeper, we're able to find out it's actually in order to find out an encryption code it's really just a random numbers we got from the key and then there's also another secret key fixed random D word number from device initialization but turns out it's only one byte. So, we take a look at locking pocket parameter again. We see some interesting code. The algorithm to find out a one byte key code is really just you get current, current, calendar, the year and you minus 2000 and you get a one byte that you convert to the hex code and once you get that, you're able to get all the information in order to create your login pocket. Here's the code we wrote to do that and yeah, just prove. However, this turns out some surprise but it's not going to bother too much because we not see the status code to in order to work. We're really looking at the actual firmware but in order to find out yesterday, we had dissembled it so in order to not work, we have to put everything in one piece. So now we get a code that's working. So yeah, we can sniffing the traffic and yeah, it turns out it's not really scary though. One byte machine, SOR, we can sniffing it. So yeah, sorry, I'll take a last step then we'll just prove my point. So here, we're just running a simple script and then you can see, we are able to trigger the key to send out, create our own pocket login to the key and send out the same notes. We send it three times just to prove from our point. Okay, so let's go back again. Yeah, so can we report for CVEs? So as a responsible disclosure, so I actually connect through their phone, mobile, e-mails they have nothing to reply to. So yeah, really, the conclusion here is security by obscurity is not really going to work, you have to test your product property before going to the market. Yeah, I'm running time so there's no questions. Sorry guys. Thank you.

SCP-1437 A Hole to Another Place | object class safe
This SCP Foundation wiki reading is about SCP 1437 "A hole to Another Plce", an apparently endless hole measuring 3m x 3m, located in the ██████ Desert. Attempts to dig into SCP-1437 from the side result in the diggers encountering solid rock where logic would dictate SCP-1437 would be. SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be an access point to an as-of-yet unknown number of parallel universes. Objects have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including: One (1) US quarter. (First known object emergence.) Large quantities of dirt and rocks. (Believed to be an attempt by a parallel containment team to fill in their corresponding SCP-1437.) A map of North America written in Spanish. (According to said map, the government of North America is "La República Popular de Aguas Nuevas", or "The People's Republic of New Waters".) A photograph of a skyline, believed to be a radically altered version of New York's. (Structures resembling coral are visible and a large flying organism can be seen in the distance.) Several disks made from solid gold. (Accompanying the disks was a sheet of paper reading 'PLEASE SEND RAIN'.) ♣Read along: http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-1437 ♣Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/EastsideShowscp ♣Twitter:https://twitter.com/Eastsideshow ♣Music by Kevin MacLeod: http://incompetech.com/ ♥Be sure to like, comment, share, and subscribe!♥

SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be an access point to an as of yet unknown number of parallel universes. Objects have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including one US quarter, first known object emergence, large quantities of dirt and rocks believed to be an attempt by a parallel containment team to fill up their corresponding SCP-1437, a map of North America written in Spanish. According to said map, the government of North America is La Pública Popular de Aguas Nuevas, or the People's Republic of New Waters. A photograph of a skyline believed to be a radically altered version of New York's. Structures resembling coral or visible in a large flying organism can be seen in the distance. Several discs made from solid gold, accompanied the disc with a sheet of paper reading Please Send Rain. During a period lasting from 2000 to 2000, numerous individuals, most of whom wore D-Class uniforms, emerged from SCP-1437. All of them were dead on arrival. Footnote, it is theorized that the nature of SCP-1437 kills living organisms at the point in which cross-several between universes is achieved. All emerging individuals carried documents would appear to be their respective universe's documentation of SCP-1437. It is currently believed these D-Class personnel and previously mentioned documentation were sent as a gesture of desired cooperation. Emerge documentation 1437-1 Item number SCP-1437 Safety Rating Safe Republic Safety Procedures An authorized citizen are to be kept at a safe distance from SCP-1437 at all times. Any authorized tours of the area are to be accompanied by two security officers for their own protection. Taking of photographs is to be permitted. Any citizens attempting to go past safety fencing are to be arrested and handed over to local law enforcement. Description SCP-1437 is an apparently endless hole measuring 10m by 10m located in the town of Promise. Attempts to dig into SCP-1437 from the side result in the diggers encountering solid rock where logic would dictate SCP-1437 would be. SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be an access point to an as-of-yet unknown number of parallel universes. Objects have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including One small pyramid composed of concrete, first known object emergence believed to be a building material. Large quantities of dirt and rocks believed to be an attempt by a parallel safety team to fill in the corresponding SCP-1437. A landscape painting believed to be of a location in Scotland, according to the painting its originating universe of sun is blue and its sky is yellow. Several discs made from solid gold accompanied the disc for a sheet of paper reading Please Stop Plague. A photograph of several scientists, all scientists pictured have unusually long fingers estimated to be nearly 25 cm long. A sheet of paper reading Thank You Please Send More Gifts. During a period last from 2009 to 2012, numerous individuals, most of whom wore bright orange jumpsuits, emerged from SCP-1437, all of whom were dead on arrival. All emerging individuals carried documents that would appear to be the respective universe's documentations on SCP-1437. It is currently believed that these individuals and the documentation they carried were sent as a gesture of desired cooperation. On 15 August 2012, a volunteer from the Foundation, Marco Perton, entered SCP-1437 wearing safety gear, taking with him a copy of this documentation. Emerged Documentation 1437-2 Individual carrying documentation was an adequate physical condition. The phrase, Property of SCP Corporation, was branded on the individual's left arm. Item Designation SCP-1437 Threat Level Little Special Containment Procedures SCP-1437 is to be contained behind a perimeter of 2 m tall electrical fencing, which is to be patrolled by groups of 3 security officers at all times. Any trespassers attempting to access SCP-1437 are to be charged with the crime of industrial espionage. Many items or organisms was emerged from SCP-1437 are to be immediately tested for hazards and have found safe examined further. After examination, suitable items are to be auctioned off to the interested collectors. Description SCP-1437 is apparently endless hole measuring 1 by 1 m located in the ████ outback. Attempts to dig into SCP-1437 from the side result in the diggers encountering solid rock where logic would dictate SCP-1437 would be. SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be an access point to an as of yet unknown number of parallel universes. Objects have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including a statue of what is believed to be a reptilian entity sporting numerous eyes and tails, first known object emergence. Large quantities of dirt and rocks believed to be an attempt by a parallel containment team to fill in their corresponding SCP-1437, a glass bottle of water, a human femur covered in saliva, a cube composed of several smaller cubes, all of which are different colors, purpose unknown, a soccer ball, ball only have five sides. During a period lasting from 2000 to 2000, numerous individuals, most of whom wore D-class uniforms, emerged from SCP-1437, all of which were dead on arrival. The fact that it is apparently impossible to travel through SCP-1437 and survive has prevented the corporation from utilizing SCP-1437 for commercial purposes. All emerging individuals carry documents which appear to be the respective universe's documentation on SCP-1437. It is currently believed that these D-class personnel in previously mentioned documentation were sent as a gesture of desired cooperation. Several D-class personnel have been sent through SCP-1437 carrying copies of this document. First Documentation 1437-3 Individual carrying documentation was wrapped in bandages and appeared to have been blinded in a recent pass. Lacerations were present on the arms and legs, and the individual's tongue had been cut out. Object number SCP-1437 He's in level, unforgivable, holding measures. High Priest ████ is to bless the holding side of SCP-1437 every two years and blood sacrifices are to be dropped into SCP-1437 after each blessing. The sacrifices are to hold copies of these scrolls as a warning to any demons to stay away. Spirits are to be consulted after these sacrifices and the suggested changes to holding measures are to be carried out immediately. Description SCP-1437 is an apparently endless hole measuring 3x3 meters located in the ████ desert. Attempts to dig into SCP-1437 from the side result in the diggers encountering solid rock where logic would dictate SCP-1437 would be. SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be a portal to the underworld. Objects have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including several discs made from solid gold accompanying the disc with a sheet of paper reading, Please Kill Foes. Large quantities of dirt and rock believed to be an attempt by demons to harm the High Priest ████ who was present at the holding side at the time. The broken remains of a human arm covered in saliva. A photograph of a metal bird flying away from a city. What appears to be a large mushroom is visible behind the bird, believed to be an attempt by demons at mocking us. A human eye which moved when touched, believed to be a lesser demon, was burnt immediately. During a period lasting from ████ to ████, dead demons wearing the skins of men emerged from the pit. They were thrown back in immediately and a sight was re-blessed by High Priest ████. First Documentation 1437-4 Individual carrying documentation was a heavily emaciated pre-adolescent who appeared to have been lobotomized in the recent past. Item Number SCP-1437 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures SCP-1437 is to be contained behind a perimeter of 2 meter tall electrical fencing, which is to be patrolled by groups of three security officers at all times.

Any useful technology which emerges from SCP-1437 are to be delivered to our masters above immediately. Description SCP-1437 apparently endless hole measuring ████ meters by ████ meters located in Zone 29 of the Brazilian sector. Attempts to dig into SCP-1437 from the side result in the diggers encountering solid rock where logic would dictate SCP-1437 would be. SCP-1437 is thus only accessible from its entrance above ground. SCP-1437 appears to be an access point to an as of yet unknown number of parallel universes. Objects believed to be gifts intended for our masters above have been known to periodically emerge from SCP-1437 at great speeds, including 1. Diamond First known gift delivered to our masters above. Large quantities of dirt and rocks purpose unknown. from the extinct quirkus buck lee delivered to our masters above. The lower half of a human body delivered to supervising servant of our masters above is currently unknown how the gift sender was aware of the diet of our masters above. A document was sent in SCP-1437 thanking the gift giver of the object and requesting further tribute to our master above. A bottle of human intended wine. See Incident 1437-1. Incident 1437-1 on ████. A bottle of human intended wine emerged from SCP-1437.

بعد ستاہتر میں سال میں آجادی کے کیوں نہیں بھارت کو اس کا ایک دلیت پردانمنٹری ملے اور اس طرح سے دیش میں اب تک کوئی دلیت پردانمنٹری نہیں بنا تو ہو سکتا ہے کہ ملکار یون کھڑگے کی اگوائی میں یہ علاینس اگر

I just dropped a song today had it posted on all like the major streaming services and stuff. And I just wanted to know if anybody had some type of like gorilla type of marketing tactics that may help me out to just get it to more people and have people hear it. Yeah, that's basically my question. Okay. So is this streaming platform specific or is this just in general that you're talking about? Just in general, I have it posted. So what I've been doing is like, I'll make a whole video of the song and I'll throw that on ictv. I also will throw it on YouTube and then it's also on like Spotify, title, Apple. Got you. How much do you know about your potential fan base? I know that my fan base is like majority male and is majority people between 18 and 30. And I know that they say that my sound a lot of the times is kind of like Tyler the creator, kind of like Max O'Creme and kind of like Joey Badass. Okay. Got you. So and when you say gorilla, is this do you mean free gorilla or do you just mean something alternative than typical promotions? When I say gorilla, I mean like, I know it's probably going to be exhaustive when it comes to effort, but I mean, just like getting people's faces and just like, even if I'm flipping people one by one to become listeners and fans, I feel like that it's been official if I'm doing that piece by piece over time. Got it. Okay. So when it comes to this man is, it gets pretty simple, right? Because now it's all about just going to where the audience is and getting the attention. So one of the most popular ways I'm saying these ways because they work, there are some other things that can sound cool, but I know for a fact these work again and again and again. One, in the real world, wherever your audience is, pop up and perform. How can you do that? One of the cool ways to do it, the easiest way to do it is wait to the artist or a similar artist is in town and you either open for them or you either pop up at the outside of the concert and do a little pop up in the parking lot or whatever. Like I know people who pulled up, popped out of the U-Haul and performed, there's all kind of things you can do around that. But just going to where they are in the real world, pop up on them. You don't necessarily need permission. Just make it as cool as possible, especially if you think you're going to have a more Tyler-type audience or it's somewhere in that pocket of things where they appreciate creativity and a little bit of rebellion, then definitely utilize something like that real world, something a little bit more scalable because that means you don't have to wait for those type of occurrences and congregations to happen is going to these people's pages. As simple as that, going to these people's pages, I mean Tyler's main page, Tyler's too big right now to go to his page, but his fan page or some Max O's fan page, whichever one of these people you feel like will be similar audiences, go straight to their followers and hit them up individually again and again. Hey, I see you rock with Tyler the Creator. He's a dope inspiration to mine. Can you check out 30 Seconds of this song when you know how you like it, if it's trash, I understand. I have no problem asking that and everything I said was intentional, one showing that this is how I found you and this is where I relate to Tyler, give him a little intrigue there. The 30 Seconds is a serious thing because it does give them a small commitment, right? Give people small, small commitments and they're more likely going to listen to more than 30 Seconds of the song, right? That's enough for them to get a vibe. They like it at the beginning and they'll probably continue to listen, right? They're not going to be doing a little stopwatch for most people. So once you get them listening and then also the, you know, whether it's trash or not, just let me know how it is, that portion of it is intentional because you need to take any of the awkwardness that comes from people saying that I don't like this shit away, right? Because people don't want to say something bad to people that they don't know most times, right? So they rather just avoid the whole interaction in the first place. So do those things and you do that at scale. And that's easier to do at scale than, like I said, popping up at concerts and some of these other things because all you just have to do is take the time. It's manual, like what you asked for, but you have a lot of numbers to work. So you could be doing that for the rest of the year with pretty much any, any artists that you think make sense for you families wise. Now, follow up question on that. Have you noticed it to be the most successful during that via DM or Instagram comment? And these people will answer these DMs from people they don't know just because they probably don't get DMs often, which is a lot of these people. A lot of these people aren't, you know, out there popping or even living, trying to do the whole, I'm cool on Instagram type life. Yeah. So a lot of these people, you're one of the few DMs that they have that from people they don't know. And two, it's a numbers game. There's going to be a lot of DMs that don't get answered. Some of them will be will be because they're like, no, like if there's a random rapper person, I don't want to be talked to. Some people will just not check their DMs and they just don't know what's happening, right? Some people will forget, like it's all of it is a funnel, just like any portion of marketing, right? You start with the top and then some people will actually see it, right? And then some people will actually respond and then some people will actually listen and some people will actually listen and give feedback. That's the part of the manual process, but it'll be doing it in that way. The steps that I talked about are going to be the steps that help increase the conversion of people. Gotcha. Thank you for sure. I can piggyback off of that. It does work when you DM them. I go by Charlie K. I'm out of Minneapolis. Just piggybacking off of what you just said, like, does the DM work versus the comment? I actually use your method, brand man, where you just go into the DM and you just hit check DM capital letters. And yeah, I'm not sure if you're familiar with Alex too, maybe that's a thugs engineer or used to be thugs engineer actually worked. He actually did DM me back in it. You know, these people are real. Oh, you commented at DM? Yep. Oh, OK. You had some time at DM asking to like collab or whatever. Nope. Not even a collab. I'm just like, yo, I know you're thugs engineer. I'm inspired by your work. You know, this is this is my song that I just put out. Appreciate the love bubble left it at that and he responded. So I don't know if he listened to it, but he definitely responded back. So it works just to say that. Yeah. And what you won't want to do with most people, though, in the beginning, most of the normal people is do the checking thing at first. They don't respond and you go back with those people. Right. But the people like him, like the in more industry, professionals and things like that. Then, yeah, definitely just start with the check DM out the gate. Yeah, got you. Because I knew I would never get to thugs. I'm like, I can get the closest to thugs. So best way to do it. Best way to do it. You can't look if you couldn't get to his engineer, get to the person at the studio who was running the running the studio. You know what I mean? Like, yep, all the way. It's the network.

The current study found that women experience higher levels of anxiety than men, and men are more likely to use problem-focused coping strategies compared to women. Additionally, the study showed that any level of anxiety increases the risk of hopelessness, and problem-focused coping strategies have a negative effect on hopelessness. These findings suggest that it is important to provide people with pre-prepared mental health protocols during a crisis and to focus on problem-focused coping strategies, particularly among women.

A very good evening aspirants, welcome to Hindu newspaper analysis brought to you by Shankar Iyer's academy for the date 4th of April 2022. Displayed here are the list of articles that we are going to discuss today. Without any delay, let's start our discussion. See this text and context article, it talks about the NFC technology. See this NFC technology is used for instant payments and this kind of technological innovation is important for both our prelims and mains. See in our prelims we can expect science based questions and in our mains it is important because questions based on technologies and then questions like steps taken towards attaining digital India goals may come. So by quoting this NFC technology you can enrich your mains answer and you can also utilize each and every point of this discussion to enrich your preparation. See under this article discussion we will see the NFC technology in detail, we will cover what is NFC technology, how does this tap to pay feature pay way for easier monetary transactions on smartphones and what are the other uses of NFC technology. But before that the syllabus relevant to the article is given here for your reference please go through it. See Google Pay or G Pay has recently launched a new feature in India. I am sure you all heard about it, yeah it is the tap to pay for UPI. See till now we have come across tap to pay using cards right, but here the new feature is tap to pay for UPI. This is launched in collaboration with Pine Labs, see this tap to pay feature makes use of near field communication technology that is why the abbreviation NFC. So here what happens NFC enabled android smartphones and UPI accounts linked to Google Pay can carry out transaction just by tapping their phones. You have all seen how a card can be tapped right likewise using this technology that is the NFC technology you can tap your phones. Here the phones can be tapped on any Pine Labs android point of sale terminal across the country. Like I said till now tap to pay was only available for cards ok. So we saw the technology and we saw what is the new feature in it. Now let us see what is this NFC and how does it work. See near field communication or NFC is a short range wireless connectivity technology. It allows NFC enabled devices to communicate with each other thereby it transfers information quickly and easily with single touch. For example it can be used to pay bills, exchange business cards, download coupons or share a document etc. Now let us see how does this NFC technology work. See NFC transmits data through electromagnetic radio fields. This is to enable communication between two devices here point of sale terminal and NFC and right smartphones which have the NFC technology. These are the two devices between which the communication is going to be established. Since the transaction takes place within a very short distance both the devices must contain NFC chips. See for data transfer to occur the NFC enabled devices must be either physically touching or within a few centimeters from each other ok. So this is how the NFC works. When they are so close to each other a single tap will transfer the information and you can make the transaction very easily. And with this basic understanding about the NFC technology now let me tell you about how the recently launched feature works that is the tap to pay for UPI. See users with UPI accounts configured on Google Pay will make payments just by tapping their NFC enabled Android smartphones on any Pine Labs Android POS terminal that is the point of sale terminal. Once the users tap their phones on the POS terminal it will automatically open the Google Pay app with the payment amount pre-filled that is the amount will be filled already and you don't have to type the amount that you have to pay. And at this time users can verify the amount that is you can check whether the amount is right or not and you can check the merchant name and then you can authenticate the payment or otherwise you can reject it. In case if you decide to authenticate the payment then you can do it by using the UPI pin that you have. And once the payment is successful the user will be notified this we all know right. Now let us see the advantages of this NFC technology with tap to pay feature. Firstly the process is much faster compared to scanning a QR code or entering a UPI linked mobile number and that is how we are making the payments now right. Whenever we visit a store we are scanning the QR code or we are entering the mobile number and then we are making the payment right. But with this technology you just have to tap your phone on the terminal that's all you have to do. So obviously it is much faster. Now coming to the second advantage in other technologies like IRDA technology the receiver devices need their own power supply. This is due to larger working distance therefore the receiving device that is the terminal cannot be powered by the radio frequency RF field like in the NFC. And also note that IRDA technology uses infrared light that is exactly why it is termed as IRDA. See it uses infrared light where the two communication devices must be positioned within a line of site and this is not suitable for transfer of large amount of information right. So in this way NFC technology is much more beneficial. Now coming to the third advantage it is the short range connection. You may think larger working distance is beneficial but it requires the user to configure their device and to pair them together for communication. So in case of larger working distance connection cannot be initiated by a simple touch gesture like in NFC. So that is also an advantage. Okay now we saw about the technology how it works and what are all the advantages. Now you may ask is it safe, don't worry I have answer for that also. Firstly it is not easy for attackers to record the communication between the devices that is the point of sale terminal and the android smartphones. This is because the NFC technology is designed for an operation between devices within a few centimeters from each other right. We saw how does it work in that what we saw we saw that smartphones have to be tapped on the point of sale terminal or it has to be within few centimeters from each other. So it becomes difficult for the attackers to get connected thus the security level of NFC communication is by default higher compared to the other wireless communication protocols. Secondly the NFC forum added the peer to peer communication that is P to P. This mechanism is used to cipher all the exchanged data so that we can avoid external interpretation of recorded communication. Since the receiving device reads your data the instant you send it NFC is also reduced to the chance of human error. Now you know how safe the technology is and if you want to know where is this NFC technology can be used just take a look at this image here and with this we have come to the end of our discussion we will have a quick recap we saw about the new feature that is the tap to pay for UPI launched by Google Pay and we saw about the near field communication technology which is a short range wireless connectivity technology. This technology allows the NFC enabled devices to communicate with each other and after that we saw how it works see for the data transfer to occur NFC enabled devices must be either physically touching or within a few centimeters from each other it transmits data through electromagnetic radio fields and after that we saw the advantages which is it is faster compared to other methods such as scanning a QR code or entering a UPI linked mobile number and we saw that it does not require power of its own and another advantage is that it has short range connection and we saw the safety of the NFC technology in that we saw it is not easy for attackers to record the communication because the NFC technology is designed for an operation between devices within a few centimeters and it makes difficult for the attackers to get connected and the NFC forum added peer to peer communication this will avoid external interpretation of recorded communication and with these points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion. See this news article here this article is with reference to Indo-Pacific and Sagar. Do you know what Sagar is? Yeah it is the security and growth for all in the region. See yesterday president of India Mr Ramnath Govind addressed the NG diplomats of Turkmenistan at the Institute of Internal Relations at Ashgabat. He said that the dynamism and vitality of the region make the Indo-Pacific a global economic center. He assured that India will stand for an open balanced rule-based and stable international trade region in the Indo-Pacific. He also said that India's approach is based on cooperation and collaboration and is elaborated through the vision of Sagar. That is the Nanadadan security and growth for all in the region. And this is the crux of the article given here in this context let us learn Sagar in Prillam's perspective. So aspirants listen carefully. See Sagar stands for security and growth for all in the region. This initiative was unveiled in the year 2015 note here it was unveiled in 2015. It is a maritime initiative which gives priority to Indian Ocean region for ensuring peace, stability and prosperity of India and Indian Ocean region. So Sagar is a maritime initiative. This you have to remember for Prillam's. Through Sagar India seeks to deepen economic and security cooperation with its maritime neighbors and assist in building their maritime security capabilities. For this India would cooperate on the exchange of information, coastal surveillance, the building of infrastructure and strengthening their capabilities. So here let's make a mind map. What is Sagar? Security and growth for all in the region. It is unveiled in the year 2015. What does it aim for? It aims for ensuring peace, stability, prosperity of India in Indian Ocean region and it seeks to deepen the economic and security cooperation with its maritime neighbors and India will also assist in building the neighbors maritime security capabilities. And how does India do this? Through exchange of information, coastal surveillance and helping in building the infrastructure and helping in strengthening their capabilities. Now let's move on to see about the goals of the Sagar. See the first one is enhancing capacities to safeguard land and maritime territories and interest. The second one is deepening economic and security cooperation in the littoral. Littoral here is nothing but the states that are bordering Indian Ocean. The next goal is promoting collective action to deal with the natural disasters, maritime threats like piracy, terrorism and emerging non-state actors. And the next one is working towards sustainable regional development through enhanced collaboration. And the fifth one is engaging with countries beyond our shores with the aim of building greater trust and promoting respect for maritime rules, norms and peaceful resolution of disputes. And these are the goals of Sagar. See Sagar also aims to enhance the prospects of sustainable development for all. See it promotes greater collaboration in many areas. Now we are going to see those areas. They are trade, tourism, investment, infrastructure development, marine science and technology, sustainable fisheries, protection of marine environment, overall development of ocean or blue economy. See blue economy presents India with an unprecedented opportunity to meet its national socio-economic objectives like livelihood generation, achieving energy security, building ecological resilience etc. So blue economy that is the marine economy has such capabilities. See India's greatest strength is its central location at the head of Indian Ocean, allowing it to access every part of Indian Ocean region without any obstruction. See India has concentrated on issues that are of priority to smaller nations, that is the security of natural resources, sustainable development, protection from natural disasters and controlling the ill effects of marine pollution and climate change. So the Sagar Initiative gives India the opportunity to enable free movement of people, goods and services across the Indian Ocean region. The enhancement of connectivity and the integration of markets would be mutually beneficial to all nations. People-to-people interactions can aid in ensuring stability in the region and access to large markets will enable the smaller nations to have the means to support sustainable economic progress. So that's all about this news article. Now let's have a quick recap. What all we saw? We saw about Sagar which stands for security and growth for all in the region. It was unveiled in the year 2015. It aims to ensure peace, stability and prosperity of India and apart from the self-interest, it also seeks to deepen the economic and security cooperation with other maritime neighbors and India also seeks to assist in building their maritime security capabilities. And after that we moved on to see about the goals of Sagar which is safeguarding land and maritime territories, deepening economic and security cooperation, action to deal with natural disasters and maritime threats, working towards sustainable regional development and engaging with countries beyond our shores with the aim of building greater trust and promoting respect for maritime rules and peaceful resolution of disputes. And we saw some of the areas of prospects for sustainable development and what are those areas? Trade, tourism, infrastructure development, marine science and technology, sustainable fisheries, protection of marine environment, blue economy. And after that we saw some of the important points about India and the Sagar. See India is at the center of Indian Ocean and it has access to every other littoral states of Indian Ocean. So far India has concentrated on issues that are important to smaller nations such as natural resources, sustainable development, natural disasters and the marine pollution and climate change. And why is this? See this is because smaller nations they get affected by these characteristics a lot. So India helped smaller nations by addressing these issues and we saw that India through this initiative that is the Sagar initiative enables free movement of people, good services across the Indian Ocean region. See the people-to-people interaction aids sustainability in the region. From the free movement of goods and services what is happening? Integration of markets is happening. So by getting access to large markets small nations are able to support their sustainable economic progress. And with these key points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion. Look at this news article. This article states that the Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan got the presidential nod for the dissolution of parliament. This move was seen as unconstitutional by the opposition parties. So the opposition parties have approached the Supreme Court to challenge the decision. Pakistan's Supreme Court barred all the state institutions from taking any extra constitutional steps in the wake of the dismissal of no-confidence vote in the National Assembly. And this is the crux of the article given here. See here we are not going to discuss about the no-confidence vote that happened in the National Assembly in Pakistan. Instead we are going to discuss about the types of motion that can be passed in the Indian Parliament. It will be helpful for your prelims. And with that note now we'll discuss some of the basics about a motion. See no discussion on a matter of general public importance can take place in the parliament except on a motion made with the consent of the presiding officer. So what does this mean? See if you are a member of the parliament and you want to discuss a matter of public importance you have to get the consent of the presiding officer and you have to move a motion then only you can discuss about it. Simply motion refers to any formal proposal made by a member with the intent of obtaining house decision. This is the basics about the motion. Now we'll discuss about the types. Firstly let's see about the closure motion as the name suggests it is to close something or to stop something. See it is a motion moved by a member to cut short the debate that is going on inside the house. If the closure motion is approved by the house then the debate will be stopped and the matter is put to vote. Note that there are four kinds of closure motions they are simple closure. It is the one when a member moves that the matter have been sufficiently discussed and can be now put to vote. Let's say a debate about a matter of public importance is going on inside the house and a particular member of the parliament feels that the matter has been discussed widely and it can be put to vote then he can move simple closure motion. Another type is closure by compartments. See this is also very easy to understand. A bill has many clauses right so the clauses of a bill or a lengthy resolution are grouped into parts before the commencement of the debate about the bill or the resolution and what happens here the debate covers the part as a whole and the entire part is put to vote that is the whole compartment that is why closure by compartment motion. Now let's move on to the next one which is the kangaroo closure and at this type only important clauses are taken up for the debate and also for voting and the other clauses are skipped over. What does a kangaroo do? It leaves from one place to another right that is why the name kangaroo closure is given because we are also skipping certain clauses. Now moving to the last one which is the guillotine closure it is the one when undiscussed clauses of the bill or a resolution are put to vote along with the discussed ones. This is due to time constraint and that is all about the closure motion and the types of closure motion. Now we will see the next type which is the privilege motion. See this is concerned with the breach of parliamentary privileges by a minister. Who moves it? It is moved by a member when he feels that a minister has committed a breach of privilege of the house by withholding facts or by giving wrong facts. Moving on to the next one it is the calling attention motion. It is introduced in the parliament by a member to call the attention of a minister to a matter of public importance. See this motion seeks an authoritative statement from the minister on that matter. Interesting fact here is that it is like 0R. Why it is like 0R? Because it is an Indian innovation in the parliamentary procedure and has been in existence since 1954. However the difference is that unlike 0R it is mentioned in the rules of procedure. What is mentioned in the rules of procedure? Calling attention motion. But 0R it is not mentioned in the rules of procedure. But both 0R and calling attention motion they are Indian innovation in the parliamentary procedure. These are all some facts that you have to remember. Now the next important motion is adjournment motion. See it is introduced in the parliament to draw the attention of the house to a definite matter of urgent public importance. See this motion it needs the support of 50 members to be admitted. It is regarded as an extraordinary device because it interrupts the normal business of the house. It involves an element of censure against the government. Censure here means disapproval against the government or criticism about the government. And that is exactly why Rajya Sabha is not permitted to make use of this device. Only Lok Sabha can use it. And that's all about the adjournment motion. Now coming to the very important motion which is the no confidence motion. See article 75 of the constitution says that the council of minister shall be collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. It means that the ministry stays in office as long as it enjoys confidence of the majority of members of the Lok Sabha. See no confidence motion need not state the reasons for its adoption in the Lok Sabha. So if a member wants to move no confidence motion he or she need not state the reasons at all. And more important thing is that it can be moved against the entire council of ministers only. It can be moved against one particular minister. And what is the purpose of this motion. It is moved for ascertaining the confidence of Lok Sabha in the council of ministers. If it has passed in the Lok Sabha the council of ministers must resign from the office. As you know a government can only function if it has a majority in the Lok Sabha. Right. The party can remain in power when it shows its strength through a floor test which is primarily taken to know whether the executive enjoys the confidence of the legislature or not. So just to check whether the government enjoys majority in the Lok Sabha or not a confidence motion can be introduced. This motion can be introduced by a member of house who believes that the government in power lacks a majority. See if the motion is approved what does this mean? It means that the ruling party must demonstrate that it has the majority in the house. Now here you might have a doubt who actually approves the motion. See a no confidence motion can be moved by any member of the house. By house I mean here the Lok Sabha. So any member of Lok Sabha can move a no confidence motion but for that speaker's permission is required and the motion has to be supported by at least 50 MPs. Remember here sometimes the speaker can refuse to admit the motion. If the speaker accepts the motion then the speaker will set a date for the motion's discussion. Otherwise the motion fails and the member who moved the motion will be informed about it. And that's all about the article here. Now we'll have a quick recap. We saw about the basics of motion which is a formal proposal made by a member with the intent of obtaining a house decision. And after that we moved on to see about different types of motions. The first one we saw is closure motion which is moved by a member to cut short the debate and vote is costed on that particular discussion. Under this closure motion we saw four types which is simple closure, closure by compartments, kangaroo closure, guillotine closure. Simple closure is when the matter has been sufficiently discussed it is put to vote. Closure by compartments is the debate covers the part as a whole and the entire part is put to vote. Kangaroo closure is certain clauses are skipped and the other important ones are voted. Guillotine closure is undiscussed clauses are also voted along with the discussed ones. After that we saw about the privilege motion which is moved by a member when he or she feels that the minister has committed a breach of privilege of the house by withholding facts or giving wrong facts. After that we saw the calling attention motion which is introduced in the parliament by a member to call the attention of a minister to a matter of urgent public importance. It is like 0R. Why it is like a 0R? Because it is also an Indian innovation in the parliamentary procedure and after that we saw the adjournment motion which is introduced to draw attention of the house to a definite matter of public importance. It interrupts the normal business of the house and it is permitted only in Lok Sabha and it meets the support of 50 members and finally we ended our discussion with the no confidence motion which can be only moved in Lok Sabha because article 75 of the constitution says that the council of ministers shall be collectively responsible to Lok Sabha. See this motion is moved to test the majority enjoyed by the ruling government in the legislature. As we all know a government can function only if it has majority in the Lok Sabha. So if this motion is introduced and it is admitted it means that the ruling party must demonstrate that it has majority in the house. It is moved by any member in the Lok Sabha but it requires the permission of speaker and it must be supported by at least 50 MPs and with these points in mind now let's move on to the next article discussion. Look at this news article. This article states that the Karnataka distribution companies that is the discombs have become the top seller of renewable energy under the green term ahead market GTAM at Indian energy exchange limited. The article mentions that Karnataka is a renewable rich state with a total installed capacity base of 15 gigawatt and it is one of the pioneers in renewable energy addition in the country and a key stakeholder in achieving the country's renewable energy goals. See the article also says that Karnataka is the only state in the country which is over achieving RPO. RPO here is nothing but renewable purchase obligation in both solar and non-solar segments apart from Andhra Pradesh. See this is the cracks of the article given here in this context will revise about the renewable energy and its types. See this discussion will be useful for both prelims and mains. First of all we'll see about renewable energy and its significance. See renewable energy often referred to as clean energy comes from natural sources or processes that are constantly replenished. Replenished means they are constantly filled up. There are several alternative and renewable sources of energy which are not only environment friendly but can also be available in abundance. Example for renewable energy sources are water, wind, sunlight, geothermal, sea waves, hydrogen and biomass. In addition to the renovability there are other reasons why we should look to switching over to renewable resources. See the main reason is to reduce the pollutants, to reduce greenhouse gases and to reduce toxins that are the byproducts of non-renewable energy sources. See the use of alternative energy sources can help preserve the delicate ecological balance of the earth and it helps conserve the non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels. See renewable energy sources they are inexhaustible which means it never runs out or it never gets depleted and with this basic understanding now we'll see the different types of renewable energy. The first one we are going to discuss is solar energy. See the sun has been providing us heat and light for billions of years and it is expected that it will continue to do so for another billion years to come. See sun is one of the most powerful renewable sources of energy for the future. It is used commonly for heating, cooking, production of electricity and even in the desalination of seawater. With the help of solar cells solar energy is converted into electricity. One of the most common uses of the sun's energy has been for water heating systems. It is also used to provide power to vehicles, generate electricity, lighting the street lights and cooking etc. On a small scale solar energy is being used to heat up water for daily use in our homes and also the swimming pools. On a larger scale solar energy could be used to run cars, power plants and even spaceships. And with this understanding of basics about solar energy we'll move on to see about wind power. See it is another alternative energy source that could be used without producing byproducts that are harmful to nature. Here byproducts such as greenhouse gases, ozone depleting gases, particulate matter and other toxins. See like solar power harnessing the wind is highly dependent on weather and location. It is true right you can't harness the wind power everywhere. However it is one of the oldest and cleanest forms of energy and the most developed of the renewable energy sources. See wind energy is free of cost and it is reliable. Wind power is clean and it produces no environmental pollution. Since wind is a renewable source of energy we never run out of it and there is also an additional advantage. Farming and grazing can still take place on land occupied by wind turbines which can help in the production of biofuels. See the land beneath the windmill can still be used for farming purposes and also note that wind forms can be built offshore that is in the middle of the sea. In some cases wind forms can even be tourist attractions and that's all about the wind energy. Now let's move on to see the next type which is the hydroelectric energy. See like wind energy the flowing of water and the water stored in huge dams is also a very important source of energy which is known as the hydroelectric energy. It is a source of renewable energy in the form of hydroelectric power. The electricity can be generated constantly because there are no external factors which affect the availability of water. Hydroelectric power produces no waste or pollution since no chemicals are used here. Then how electricity is generated? It utilizes the water flowing from higher gradient to lower gradient. See water used for hydroelectric power can be reused for other purposes like irrigation. And now coming to the final one which is the geothermal energy. Geothermal energy is another alternative source of energy. It is obtained from the internal heat of the earth. In fact it is one of the oldest type of natural sources of heat. It dates back to Roman times when the heat from earth was used instead of fire to heat rooms or to warm the water for butts. Presently it is being used as a source for producing electricity mainly in regions of tectonic plate movement. See basically a geothermal hot spot is an area of reduced thickness in the mantle which sends the excess internal heat from the interior of the earth to the outer crust. These hot spots are well known for their unique effects seen on the earth's surface such as the volcanic islands, the mineral deposits and the gases. Gases here is hot springs. See the heat from these geothermal hot spots is altered in the form of steam which is used to run a steam turbine that can generate electricity. And that is all about the geothermal energy source. See we saw different types of renewable energy right? Do you remember what are they? They are water, wind, sunlight, geothermal, sea waves, hydrogen and biomass right. See in this discussion we have covered only a few. We covered solar energy, wind energy. After that we covered hydroelectric and geothermal energy. So go and read about the hydrogen and biomass and sea waves which are used as alternative sources of energy or renewable energy sources. And that is all about the news article given here. We'll have a quick recap. We saw about renewable energy which is referred to as clean energy and it comes from natural resources and they are constantly replenished. That is they don't get exhausted. We saw the types which includes water, wind, sunlight, geothermal, sea waves, hydrogen and biomass. And we saw the significance which is it preserves the delicate ecological balance of the earth. It helps conserve the non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels and it helps reduce the pollutants, greenhouse gases and toxins that are the byproducts of non-renewable energy sources. And after that we saw about solar energy. We saw it is used for heating, cooking, production of electricity and in the desalination of sea water. And it provides power to vehicles and it can be used to generate electricity. It is used for lighting street lights, cooking etc. And after that we saw about wind power. We saw that it is weather and location dependent and it is free of cost and reliable. And we saw that even though the land is utilized for having wind turbines or windmills forming grazing can still be done on the land and in some cases it even attracts tourists. And after that we saw about hydroelectric energy which utilizes the energy from flowing water and water stored in huge dams. And finally we ended our discussion by seeing geothermal energy which is obtained from the internal heat of the earth. See it is a source for producing electricity mainly in regions of tectonic plate movement and this region is called as geothermal hot spot. They are well known for unique effects such as volcanic effects, mineral deposits and gases. And with these points in mind now let's move on to the next part of our discussion that is the practice prelims question discussion. Today we have three prelims questions. We'll solve them one by one and I have one quiz question for you. Now let's solve the first question. Consider the following statements with reference to security and growth for all in the region that is Sagar. Statement one it gives priority to Indian Ocean region for ensuring peace stability and prosperity of India in the Indian Ocean region. Statement two one of its objective is the overall development of ocean or blue economy. See if you recall our discussion you will know that both the statements given here are correct. See Sagar is a maritime initiative which gives priority to Indian Ocean region for ensuring peace stability and prosperity of India in Indian Ocean region. Through Sagar India seeks to deepen economic and security cooperation with its maritime neighbors and it also assists in building the neighbors maritime security capabilities. And we saw some of the areas of collaboration. What are those areas? They are trade tourism investment infrastructure development marine science and technology sustainable fisheries protection of marine environment and overall development of ocean or blue economy. So the correct option here is option C both one and two. Moving on to the next question which of the following motions requires the support of 50 members to be admitted. Adjournment motion no confidence motion calling attention motion. Let me give you a minute to think about this try to recall our discussion exactly. See both adjournment motion and no confidence motion requires 50 members support to be admitted and both can be introduced in looks above no such requirements is needed in the case of calling attention motion. So the correct option here is option C one and two only moving on to the final question which is the quiz question for you aspirants which of the following can be considered as renewable sources of energy nuclear energy hydrogen energy geothermal energy energy from natural gas. See this is a very simple question use elimination technique for this question you will easily arrive at the answer and try to recall our discussion also it will be helpful for you. Attempt this question and post your answer in the comment section. I have given a main question for your practice so interested aspirants write it and post it in the comment section. If you have any queries related to the articles that we discussed today post that also in the comment section and with that we have come to the end if you find the video useful like share and comment and do subscribe to Shankaray's Academy's YouTube channel for further updates.

Hey, what's going on guys? Welcome back to another video. So today I want to show you a Shopify store that made over half a million dollars drop shipping jewelry. As always, I'm going to be breaking down the whole business model and kind of set up of this business. So we're going to be taking a look at the Shopify store they're using, the actual products they sold to make those sorts of sales and then the actual ads that have been running as well. What's different about this store to the typical ones I review is they actually generated those sales running TikTok ads. TikTok ads are obviously really popular at the moment and what they do is allow us to reach a demographic that we might not necessarily be able to reach on a platform like Facebook. If you take a look at the average demographic for a particular platform, then it definitely kind of sets you up to drop ship certain products or to at least use different platforms to match to a different product. And that's the reason why I wanted to show you this store then is because it's a great example of somebody who's found a pretty cool, pretty unique product from AliExpress branded a site around it. So it makes it look like they're the original seller and creator of this product. But then what they've also done is they haven't just typically gone straight to Facebook or straight to Google, they've matched the product to the ideal demographic for the person who's gonna be buying the product. What I really like about their marketing strategy as well is yes, they're focused on TikTok to drive the majority of their traffic. They've then used all the other platforms kind of like a retargeting basis. So people wherever they go over the internet or whatever platform they're using, they'll always come across their products. And with that being said guys, thanks for tuning in. I hope you enjoyed the video. I hope you learned something new that you can take away and implement into your own business which will ultimately help you be more successful and let's jump straight into it. So the store we're looking at today is called foreverbracelet.shop on the exchange marketplace. A lot of funny stores on the exchange marketplace for sale that aren't private listings because essentially you can see everything there is to that business, their whole kind of business model, their whole setup, how they're running their business, the profits they're making, the success they're having. And you can learn so much that you can take away and then implement into your own business. It also makes a great product research tool because if there's proven sales and success behind a particular product, then obviously there's no reason why you can't take that same product, market it in your own unique way, improve on what these guys are doing and essentially see the same, if not better, fingers crossed results. So what's different about this shop is they don't have the typical domain, they don't have a .com or .co.uk, it's actually .shop. The golfing brand I'm starting actually kind of follows this as well and it's the actual name of the business .golf. So hopefully if it can work for these guys it can work for me too. I am gonna be releasing the first episode next week. There's a couple of things I wanna put in place so the episode isn't just me talking about what I'm doing. I can actually show you some kind of tangible results and the stages I'm up to. So to give you some background information about this particular site, it's pretty much your typical drop ship and store apart from, I don't believe they source the products from AliExpress. I found the products in AliExpress so you can see roughly how much sort of profit they're making, but he says in this paragraph in this section here that he's actually got an agent, a private supplier in which he exports his order info to, sends it across and then re-imports to go on the track and information and things like that. So the average revenue is about 36K across since when he started with an average profit. So he says of $21,000. Now, I think that's a bit over exaggerated. It's probably not that high with a profit margin of 40%. And that's pretty awesome for drop shipping terms. But what I wanna kinda talk about is the fact that he stopped running ads in June but he still had over 7K sales which is pretty good for organic traffic. But if you look at the previous couple of months over 50K, over 70K and then over 80K. So it just goes to show there's still quite a lot of potential for a particular site like this. And obviously the product as well. Total traffic, three quarters of a million. If we take a look at the expenses, we can see they're on the advanced plan to cut down their transaction fees. They have employees, VA's doing customer service, order fulfillment, that sort of thing. Domain, $27 a year, paid apps and research software, 500. And then they have Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat and influencers at seven grand a month. When you see the product, it's a super kind of passionate product. There's no way you'd be able to see this sort of success if you didn't have user-generated content behind the site, behind the product, actually advertising it. One thing I'm really big on and having a big push on them for my own businesses is trying to get as much user-generated content together as much as possible, because no one sells a product better than somebody who already has that loyal trust and following that you can kind of piggyback off. So if we take a look at the actual Shopify store itself, we can see they haven't got a fabric on installed at the top. There's definitely a lot of improvement to the site. They've had some great success, but I definitely believe that if you make a few tweaks to the site, you could actually increase that success with the particular niche that it's in as well. Then there's definitely lots of other products you could branch out onto. So you haven't just got to focus on one product, and this could be a brand that could keep going for many years, in my opinion. The logo itself, in my opinion, looks a bit basic. It doesn't look very professional, so that would be kind of like my first port of call for this particular site if I was trying to improve it. And then if you look at the cover photo, treat your boo with a smile they face. Obviously it's not very professional, but when you see the actual product and see the ads they're running and the target demographic they're going after, it just shows why this product or why this particular business has done so well because everything they've done is based around that demographic they're gonna be advertising to. And if I'm not mistaken, if I had to guess, sorry, I would say the person who created this site is the ideal target market for this product as well. That's also a super important piece of advice is that try and focus on what you know because when it comes to the design of the site, the pricing of the product, the actual products themselves, the more knowledge you have about a particular niche, then the easier things will come to you and it'll certainly be a lot less work because things will just come naturally. So at the top they have a track your order page which is recommended, they have a contact us page but what I wanna show you this is all it is is a contact us form. So it just goes to show the most important things about any business are the product and the actual marketing campaign itself. In my opinion this should be developed with things like contact number, physical address and just generally more information about the actual business itself. Just kinda make it more trustworthy and professional but ultimately they've done the most important things correctly which is reflected in their success. So this is the product in question, it's called the Forever Bracelet, TM, trademarked, two piece set. So they haven't just named it Rope Bracelet, Custom Name, they've actually branded it to the name of the shop. What it is essentially is just two separate bracelets, one for one partner, one for another partner, you can get your name inscribed onto it and then when you go near each other this magnet kinda joins on. So it's a pretty cool, pretty unique product. See they have a custom app installed so people can import their name before making a purchase and they also have this, I believe this looks like a debutify theme which is a default option but basically you can put in when the product itself is actually going to arrive. There's not a lot really you can say about this particular product so all they've done, their product description is pretty short but they just have a nice gift essentially saying everything that needs to be said about this particular product and showing what it actually does. So a little bit of a paragraph at the top, the gift sales, the product to be honest and then most people probably won't be that bothered about the materials or even the guarantee to be honest because it's such a cheap product at $20. Most people think it's a cool product, they'll put their names in, hit it to cart and they won't think twice about reading any further. At the top two you can see 155 style reviews so if people did wanna check out the reviews they could scroll down here and see so many different picture reviews of two people holding hands. It's just great material that will help sell the product which again is reflected in the success that they've had. So this is the product itself we can see it's identical, literally everything about it is exactly the same. If we go through the process and we'll have this stone color then it's $8.83 plus that includes free shipping. So you're looking at about $9 delivered, they're selling it for $20 which doesn't leave a lot of room so you must be having hot super high conversion rates unless they're sourcing it a lot cheaper. As I mentioned in the intro they're not sourcing it from AliExpress, they're using an agent. So if I had to guess for a particular product like this they're probably sourcing it for around $5, $6 which then bumps up that profit margins a little bit. I haven't actually been through the purchase process so let's do that now just to see if they do actually have an upsell in which they do. So again this will be bumping up the average order value which actually explains how they can afford to sell it for so cheap. Let's jump into TikTok then. It's a platform I haven't spent much time on whatsoever but I always love doing research into different businesses especially if they have a different setup to my own because it just gives me loads of ideas of what I can take away for certain products, how to kind of, how they actually market the products and the strategy behind them and I always like to try and think of things if you're watching this video try and think how can I implement this into my own business. So let's take a look at their videos. It's good for this first one in the bottom right corner which is 10K Views. Let's just play this. They're really cute whenever you put your hands together they connect, watch. See that? Now you can hold hands. It's really cute. Just like that. What do you think? They're more connected. They're connected. Then you feel the tug, you feel the tension so it makes you feel actually more connected to each other. It's a great gift, you know what I'm saying? What day's coming up real soon? It's my national GoFest day. So make sure you guys grab one. Link will be in our bio for the next few days so grab one and thank you. Peace. So what that actually looks like then is it's the owners, the creators of the business filming a video themselves taking on that role as the users and actually using it as a video to help sell the products. They have the link in the bio which they're directing people to so there's a call to action but then obviously they nicely demonstrate how the products works. They also time the release of this brand, this product to their site, their business in time for National Girlfriends Day. So obviously what they've done there is pretty smart because it's the sort of time in which there's going to be lots of people thinking about what sort of gifts to get their girlfriend and then this ad pops up. It's pretty cool, it's pretty unique and it's just a no-brainer at the price point as well. So you can see how simple but effective videos like this really, really are. If you've been struggling to kind of come up with your own videos or paying a designer you're not sure what company to go with, try reaching out to some small-time influencers, thousand followers, give or take. Ask them for a prize or ask them if they're even dirt for free if you let them keep the products because videos like this which show real people using the real products and just how it does work and smiling and just bringing emotion and life to the actual video itself rather than just a cold product image, it can really make a huge difference. If you look at some of the most successful e-commerce brands or stores on Facebook or on TikTok then there's always one common theme with the ads they're running and it's featuring real people actually demonstrating the product. And with that being said guys, let's wrap the video up and do a quick recap just to go over what we've learned in this video. So number one is they've found a pretty cool, pretty unique product and they've branded it as their own and built a store around that particular product. Then to sell that product and generate over half a million dollars in sales they've focused on user-generated content which is real people featuring the product. They've posted it out. We heard the girl in that video say this company has sent me these particular bracelets and we're gonna surprise my boyfriend with them. Live reaction just showing how a real person would use that product and surprise their own boyfriend. It creates like a real life example that people can connect to, people can relate to which transforms into cheap clicks because it's gonna be super high engagement and the cheaper you can get people onto your website then obviously the cheaper you're going to convert them as well. So with that being said guys, I hope you enjoyed that video. I hope you learned something new. If you did let me know down in the comments below I always like to know kind of what stages people are at in their journey. Let me know what you wanna see next as well. What sort of videos will help you out with the kind of position that you're in. And one final thing then before you do go if you're looking for a program that comes with my full support and guidance as well as all the content and resources you could possibly need, make sure you check out my Econ Academy. There'll be a link in the video description down below. There is a free callback service too with myself. So if you wanna hop on the phone with me go for any questions you have about joining. Just let me know if there's a link down in the video description below. Thanks again, I'll see you in the next one.

Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to Esoteric Atlanta. Of course, my name is Bryce and this is our next installment of the Octurian anthology. We are where we left off last week. We're in the middle of Ektara's channeling from Tom Kenyon. If you missed the episode from last week or any of the prior episodes, it is in that playlist Understanding the Magdalen. Again, these channelings drop every Tuesday at 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on YouTube and then later in the day on our other websites and platforms. So we again are going to pick up with Ektara's channeling from the Octurian anthology. We're starting today with your human potential and once again before we get into this I just and being reminded to tell you guys so I've had some I've had a couple of people requests that I just read and don't give commentary. You can probably find these books on Audible if you just want somebody to read them to you. However, that's not the point of this. I'm going to be giving my commentary on this and that is because long before I was on YouTube I was the only or still am the only female authorized Ashonga teacher here in the state of Georgia. I've been studying spirituality and spiritual philosophy for 17 years now. And so I do know a thing or two about what is being discussed in these channelings. And so I am going to be giving my commentary because this is what I'm an expert in. This is my field. I'm not an expert in the sense that I know everything but professionally, professionally, I would be considered an expert, you know, if this was a there was a trial going on and they needed an expert witness to come in and talk about different philosophies. I would qualify for that. And so that is why I'm giving commentary. Most of the stuff that's been discussed in Tom Kenyon's channelings I have agreed with and I feel like I've been able to elaborate on because I understand what they're talking about. There's some stuff that I don't agree with and when I don't agree with it, I give you the reasons why I don't agree with that because it usually comes from another philosophy or another understanding that I'm aware of. And so yeah, if you don't want to hear my commentary then you're more than welcome to go to Audible and see if you can find the book just simply being read to you. Or, better yet, you can order the book yourself. You know, it's available. It's on Amazon. It's anywhere. Books are sold. You can get this book. It's not, you know, I don't have exclusive rights to this book. So, but anyway, I know most of you guys like the commentary, but just for those who have commented, the commentary is not going to stop. There will be no point for me just to read this, to read it. No point. I wouldn't just read it. It's a discussion. This isn't a discussion over these channelings. So anyway, all right, so we're gonna be starting again with your human potential. This is page 72. Your potential as a human being is rooted in your intergalactic ancestry. Yep. Yep. I've told you guys before the missing ten tribes of Israel are your ten DNA strands that are not active. The tribes of Israel that are coming from Jacob in the Bible, those are the bad guys. Those are the controllers. The real... Listen, the darkness can't create anything. The only darkness can do is steal from the light and invert or mimic. There was an original 12 tribes of Israel. They're galactic. Darlin, that's you. That's you. So let's read that again. Your potential as a human being is rooted in your intergalactic ancestry and the obstacles of your unfoldment of as a higher being are perpetrated by territorial manipulation. The illusions of lamentations, correct? We know the controllers have manipulated us, but we also manipulate ourselves. That's the second sutra of the yoga sutras, yoga chitva vritti narodaha. That's the Sanskrit, yoga chitva vritti narodaha. Yoga is the nothingness of mind. Vritti is thoughts. Chitva is mind. So the mind stuff. So yoga is literally getting rid of your thoughts because your thoughts don't mean shit. Your thoughts just create limitations and bondage. It's like one of my favorite sayings is don't believe everything you think. Your thoughts are what cause human suffering because you're clinging to manipulation that you think is real that isn't real. The truth through the illusion is that you are a soul. The illusion is that you think you are your identity. You think you are your limitations. Okay, we've talked a lot about that on this on this channel. Let us first address your inheritance that is intergalactic and not simply planetary. During the Sumerian period of your history, an intergalactic civilization made contact with your early primate predecessor. These beings known as the Anunnaki were on a practical mission. They were mining for gold because their atmosphere had become depleted of this rare metal which was in suspended gaseous state. Their atmosphere was composed of suspended gold particles mixed with other gases. Unfortunately for the Anunnaki, the rotation of your planet around the Sun degraded their biology and reduced their lifespan. Robotic mining vessels could only do so much. Now I do not actually, I don't necessarily believe that the Earth is flat. I don't necessarily believe that, but I'm questioning whether we actually rotate around the Sun or not. I kind of, in my mind, I see things as being maybe multi-dimensional rather than linear when it comes to the planet. But as I said last week regarding this, I take a very humble approach to what the Earth looks like. I'm not going to lean heavily one way or the other simply because I have never, as Bryce, I have never been to outer space. So I've never had the fortunate memory of seeing it from that perspective to know, to understand exactly. I do believe there is a firmament, but that can be in any model really. So, you know, take that with a grain of salt. That's one of those things I'm just going to wait, when we know, we know. I don't believe the Earth is as big as they say it is. I do actually believe that land masses are closer than they say they are. I do think there is some type of suspension when we fly places. Trust me, I've been all over the world multiple times. So, some of those long 16, 20-hour flights I've taken, I do actually believe we're closer and they kind of keep us suspended. But that's just my opinion. It could change. So anyway, basically, I guess the point I was getting to with the Anunnaki, it was the atmosphere of Earth that was not hospitable to them. And we've spoken about this before. I believe it was with, was it Sunat Kumara or maybe it was, it was one of the other channelings in this book. We spoke about this with the Anunnaki. And Anunnaki, this is a very broad statement in my opinion, the Anunnaki, just like saying humans, it's a very broad statement. There's so many different types of humans. There's many different types of Anunnaki. And we, again, we have to understand that people or humanoid beings should always be judged by their actions and not by their state of birth. So, we can't say, we know that majority of the Draco is bad. We know that majority of the Draco do very selfishly harmful things. However, there are a few Draco that are not bad, that are oriented for good and who help humans. Same thing with the Anunnaki. I think the Anunnaki was split more evenly. It's like the Palladians. The Palladians aren't all good. There are bad Palladians too. And we have to be very, very careful, especially as we start, in this community especially, we've started to really open our eyes to extra-terrestrial beings and the reality that they do exist. And so many people in this community are very quick, very quick to say just because somebody is a Draco or reptilian or Anunnaki, then they're all automatically bad. Well, that's bigotry. That's no different than saying that somebody is good or bad based upon the color of their skin. You can't help who you were born to, these beings. Same thing. And so I want to be very clear. Now, we talked about this a lot with the Emerald Tablets, with the Anunnaki. The Atlanteans, which is who we are, the descendants, and I think that's what it's going to get into. We're the mutts of all of these intergalactic beings rolled up into one. That's where we get our races from. I'm predominantly Liren, Palladian, and Octurian, and Kentucky, and that's why I'm blonde-haired, blue-eyed. That's my dominant galactic heritage. It doesn't mean I don't have Serian in me. It doesn't mean I don't have other galactic roots in me as well, but I'm predominantly these galactic constellations that carry blonde-haired, blue-eyed features. If you're black, you carry more Serian. It doesn't mean you don't have Liren, or Octurian, or Palladian. You're just predominantly Serian. And this is what the Atlanteans knew. They knew this. That's what a race was. I'm not white because my ancestors came from Northern Europe. That's bullshit. That's not why I'm white. You're not black because your ancestors came from Africa. It's an intergalactic understanding. In all of these different races of humanoids, all make up the 12 tribes of Israel equally. When the Anunnaki came to earth to mine for gold, to look for resources here, yes, they created us to be a slave nation, to do this for them. Hence why, as we talked about before in this book, why it's really easy for people to fall in line. It's easy for humans to follow the leader because that's we were created to be slaves, right? That's in our DNA from the bad Anunnaki. But there was also good Anunnaki who wanted to teach us things and liberate us and saw us as a part of them. And if you want to know more about that, I would highly suggest looking into the Emerald tablets because that's what caused the fall of Atlantis, was the bad Atlanteans who were in line with the bad Anunnaki took over and flooded things out. But there were good ones as well. So all of us, if you're watching right now, you have Anunnaki in you. Doesn't mean you're bad. And again, even if you were born to bad Anunnaki, you have free will choice. Doesn't matter. Your heritage doesn't matter. That doesn't depend upon the value of your soul. You have choices to make. And that's what their density is. It's the planet of choice. We're in the density of choice. All right, so let's continue. So I'm going to reread that again. Unfortunately for the Anunnaki, the rotation of your planet around the sun degraded their biology and reduced their lifespan. Robotic mining vessels could only do so much. Looking for a solution, they decided to engage the service of some more advanced primates. They manipulated your ancient DNA to create slaves to do the terrestrial part of the mining operation. When the Anunnaki had mined enough gold for their purpose, they left your planet. Those early versions of humans, abandoned by the Star Travelers, began to tell stories about God who had come from the stars. A being, especially a primitive one, who lives in a third dimension can easily ascribe supernatural abilities to a being from the fifth or higher dimensions who, as in the case of the Anunnaki, possessed an advanced technology. After the Anunnaki experiment, other intergalactic civilizations explored your solar systems and interacted with early humans. This was in your prehistorical period. And by that, I mean there are no written records other than the Sumerian text. Depending on how you classify intergalactic DNA, you can safely say that over 20 intergalactic civilizations gifted you with aspects of their DNA. A gift is, of course, relative to the one giving and the one receiving. What is perceived as a gift by the giver may turn out to be a burden to the receiver. This is the paradox of reality. From this vantage point, you are intergalactic royalty. That's what they don't want you to know. The Atlanteans knew this. That's why all these species, these extraterrestrials are so fascinated by what's happening on Earth right now. Because collectively, we are all of their children. And because we carry all the strands of these different humanoid galaxies within us, we have powers beyond our own understanding. Let me read that again. From this vantage point, you are intergalactic royalty. A unique hybrid of a biological primate conjoined with the DNA from very advanced beings. The codones of your DNA spiral operate much like internal and external responsive switches. Some of the codones in your DNA became active when internal biological processes occur. Other codones of your DNA respond to external cues in the environment. Your intergalactic inheritance encoded in the form of DNA codones is responsive to cosmic triggers. It is as if these advanced intergalactic beings that gifted you with portions of their DNA programmed the codones to respond to future environmental and cosmic triggers. When these codones were introduced into your DNA, these cosmic forces were in your future. Now they are in your present and you are being activated by cosmic forces beyond your imagination. These cosmic triggers are streaming into your solar system from the center of your galaxy as well as from deep space. Furthermore, your codones are responding to the changes in your sun. I just want to say something quickly. There is construction going on outside, continual construction. If you hear a hammering noise, that's what that is and unfortunately there's not much I can do about it. We know that there's changes happening in our sun. There's actually people are showing pictures of two suns. We know the sun is a portal. That's why I am not so sure that we move around the sun because I think there's something about the sun we don't actually know. So all this cosmic activity is stimulating and activating your codones of intergalactic origin. Your now has become your future. Your future has become your now. This mass activation of humanity through cosmic triggers is and will continue to release extraordinary latent potentials in the human beings. Although you are in the midst of it and are likely unable to see it, you are in the center point of evolutionary change. One of the impediments of your human potential lies in a narrow perspective on history. Many of your religions have defined beings who are not supernatural but were in fact simply advanced alien species. The deification of these beings has had an insidious effect upon humanity. If you deify a being, you raise him or her above yourself. You seek to be in service to this deity for this was encoded into your DNA by the Anunnaki. If you raise yourself intellectually to understand that you are intergalactic royalty, then you will realize there is no one you need to bow down to. You are equals. Perhaps your understanding is still limited, but your potential is hardly limited. The demystification of religion will wipe away the obscuration of your intergalactic origins. To the extent that you are able to accomplish this intellectual task, you will find it much easier to pass through these cosmic triggers. And that is what I've been saying for a long time. The big hold up right now is religion. That's where the controllers still have us in the matrix and serving the Kabbal is through Christianity, dominantly Christianity. Once you realize that the royal family holds a copyright to the Bible, that should be a big massive red flag that it was written by them to get you to worship them. Before I move to the topic of the Octurian Stargate, let me be clear about our intentions and our modus operandi. As I said earlier, it is a developed attribute of Octurians to value life, intelligence and freedom. We view our presence in your galaxy as protectors of benevolent intent. This extends to your solar system and your planets, but the situation is multi-dimensional and very complex. We believe in the freedom of beings to make their own choices so long as it does not imprison or limit others. You do you boo, just make sure you're not hurting others. As an observer of your planet for these many centuries, I am bound by the Octurian Agreement. This is a cultural agreement between all Octurians and especially those of us who are intergalactic explorers and or protectors. We do not directly intervene into terrestrial affairs except on rare occasions. But although you are unaware of it, our starships travel through your solar system and your galaxy in the fifth dimension and we have stopped and will continue to stop many malevolent intruders. You may not be aware of this, but there are intergalactic battles occurring. And these battles are between those who imprison you further through new advanced technologies and those who seek to protect you, like ourselves and others. We are not the only ones patrolling the sector of space in your best interest. Best interest is of course relative to the perceiver. I was about to say something about that. This is indeed one of the paradoxes of our universe and I want to be very clear about this. The thing that bothers me the most about this is where is our consent? You know, as my mommy used to say we were growing up, if you allow somebody to take care of you, you allow somebody to control you. And a lot of people in this movement, in this community, are sitting around waiting for the White Hats to save them, are waiting to get that million dollar check from Nisara. If you hand your power over to the White Hats or you hand your power over to Nisara, you are now adapting a new set of controllers. No different from the controllers that we're trying to get rid of. You have to be your own savior. If somebody shows up with a million dollar check at your door, my question would be what's the cash? What's the cash? Because this is the realm of karma, of cause and effect. Nothing happens just because it happens. There has to be an action and a reaction. So what's the effect? Now yes, it could have been that before we took life, as a soul, we asked for the protection and the help of the acturians, but still in a lot of ways they have to back off and allow us and our lower selves and these bodies to experience the karma of the lessons we have to learn. So I just want to make that clear because as he said that these are, that they're, it's only relative. Like all of this is, there's no such thing as black and white. Everything is relative. It's all shades of gray. Okay? Our intentions are to protect the free will zone of this mutating humanity, to protect you via the higher dimensions and allow you the freedom to make your own choices. It is our hope that you will make those choices that elevate life, intelligence and freedom, but that choice is yours, not ours to make. We realize that those of you living a terrestrial existence, historically bound and manipulated may indeed feel like you have no choice in the matter. And that the outcome is far beyond your ability to influence. Let me speak to this quandary in terms of a biological metaphor. There are certain types of pine trees whose seeds will only sprout after being stimulated and activated by fire. The scenario is very often centered around lightning and drought. A force of pine trees becomes very dry due to lack of precipitation. The air is hot and thunderstorms form. Lightning often accompanies these types of weather conditions. A bolt of lightning strikes a tree that is dried and it bursts into flames and sets the forest ablaze. And while to the observer it looks like the lightning originated in the sky, it actually originated in the earth. As fire engulfs the forest and burns the pine trees, the seeds of this particular species become alive. They are not killed by fire. In where there is dissemination, new growth appears over the course of time. These pine seeds belong to this particular species that are like your intergalactic codones. The force that set them on their course towards new growth came from the force beyond their control or manipulation. The cosmic triggers I spoke to earlier are like the lightning bolt. Your human civilization is on fire and in some cases both literally and figuratively that is the case. And I'm going to say this too because I said this in the Emerald Tablets and all sorts of other readings. And yoga as well, we see the reference to fire a lot, to Agni, the fire. In the niyamas of the Yoga Sutras it's called Tapas. Tapas means heat. This is another reason why the Hathor spoke about this through Tom Kenyon's Hathor channeling. This is why physical exercise is the number one priority of spiritual development. Because as he's talking about the macro, the trees are using the fire to activate new growth. You also require fire to activate new growth. That fire is called Tapas, heat or sweat. When you sweat, you are creating a fire within your body from your solar plexus which is the solar helix of your own solar system within your cosmic DNA. This is why yoga has extreme exercise. This is why the Egyptian priestess, priestess of ISIS had extreme exercise. You will not spiritually advance if you are not sweating every day. It's necessary. Animals do it. Animals love exercise. Dogs sweat through their tongues. That's why they pant and they love it. A dog is never upset about going for a run. You use the fire within your body to clean out old stuck energy in order to activate and create new patterns of new energy that's been dormant. I'm not saying that you have to be an Olympic athlete. I'm not saying you have to have a six pack. What I am saying is there is no excuse to not even just go walk, power walk for 30 minutes to get your body to get your energy moving. That's why your soul came into this body was to experience and that's the friction, right? That's the heat. That's the friction. I'll say it again. I've said it before. Speaking of using a fire, a match, you have a match. Everybody knows what a match looks like. A match on its own has everything it needs to light but it can't light on its own, can it? It has to be struck against a match book. That striking against the match book, that friction of that strike is what causes the flame to appear. You got to do the same thing with your body. Just like the pine trees that he's speaking about, the same has to be done to your body. You have to use the fire within your own solar plexus, your helios, your sun to burn up old, stuck energy, to open new pathways, new values in order to start the process of activating your dormant DNA. Again, it's not about punishing your body. It's not about trying to get the skinny jeans. That's a benefit and had a benefit of what happens but the main point, main reason why I exercise is for spiritual purposes. It's also going to pull up the shadow side. It's going to pull up your, it's going to challenge your ego. Nothing's going to challenge the ego quite like exercise. Nothing's going to humble you quite like exercise. It's going to get you stronger physically which in turn is going to start to change you mentally. Things that seemed impossible start to become possible. You also release more endorphins in your brain which changes your outlook on life. Again, I'll quote one of my favorite movies, Legally Blonde, where there is a woman on trial for murder and L, the main character of Legally Blonde, loves the, the, the defendants of celebrity aerobics teacher, right? And she knows she didn't kill her husband. And what's the famous scene where she says, now you're, you're, you exercise. Exercise give you endorphins and endorphins make you happy. Happy people don't kill their husbands. So exercise changes your perception of who you are, where you are and what is happening to you. It also helps you manage stress. And you've been given a body. Your body's a gift. How dare you not use it? How dare you not take advantage of this opportunity to be in a human body? Anyway, okay. And for those who are new, if you go to my playlist, I'll put the playlist in the description box, yoga and shadow work. We talk about shadow work. We talk about exercise, all that kind of stuff. I'll put that down in the description box as well. The cosmic triggers I spoke to earlier are like the lightning bolts. Your human, human civilization is on fire as we're reading this again. In some cases, both literally and figuratively, this is the case. The manipulators have no power over these cosmic triggers for their origins are not on this planet. And the manipulators who look for reinforcements from their intergalactic hoodlums are disappointed. This is because they are being blocked by our starships and other alliances of intergalactic origin. And I've said this before, the truth or community is controlled by the cabal, just like the mainstream media community is. Because they know they can't stop what's coming. Nothing can stop what's coming, but they're going to try their very, very best to get you to not consent to what's coming. So that you follow the 90% of the people you follow are paid by the controllers. They work for the Luciferians. And they're trying to continue because they know that in your DNA, you've been taught to follow the leader. And so you're following the leaders in the truth or community just like the people on the other side are following the leaders on mainstream media. No different. Two sides of the same coin. No different. So you have to know this in order to remove yourself from this. As I said, it is a very complex situation. Those humans who wait for our arrival and three-dimensional spaceships are wasting their energy. It takes tremendous power to lower the vibratory rate of our spaceships into the third dimension, absolutely. We can accomplish such a task when need through light form technology, but it would be a last resort. What I wish to convey in this moment of our discussion is that your intergalactic codones are being activated and will continue to be activated by the cosmic triggers I spoke of earlier. The unfolding of new abilities and the human beings over the next 100 years will eclipse all previous evolutionary jumps by your kind. Octurian mission regarding planet Earth. I wish now to speak somewhat to the Octurian mission in regards to your planet. As I have established before, as an Octurian civilization, our primary focus is the protection of life when it deserves to be protected. Intelligence and freedom. Each dimensional reality has its own inherent potentials and limitations. As fifth dimensional civilization, we have greatly expanded sense of reality and our language mirrors this. Our language to use your terms is telepathic holography. We do have sounds that we make verbally, but they are activators. They are not holders of information, as in your language. So when, for instance, I reference your evolution as a species, in my native language, I see a holographic image in my mind that contains the entire history as we have recorded and perceived it. I can communicate this very quickly to a fellow Octurian. The entire context for a decision can be communicated in nanoseconds. This context is crucial to all Octurian problem solving. We like to know the history of any event or situation and its relationship to all previous similar events and situations. We even like to consider possible future realities related to a specific event. All of this vastness, this holographic sea of information is telepathic communication from one Octurian to another. It is similar to transferring all knowledge that you possess in all software retrieval systems into the minds of another without any need of hardware, computer interfaces, or any applicable duration of time. For now when I speak to you, I have to use a more primitive means of communication and it takes more time to communicate the basics. I kind of get this. I kind of get what he's saying. Some of you reading this written word can have access to the Octurian telepathic pool of information. Let me address this topic before proceeding. If you are of this disposition, you will begin to have holographic images or three-dimensional physical sensations as you read my words. I literally was just saying, yeah, I get what he's saying because I can see it. I'm sure I'm assuming you guys can probably see it too in your mind's eye. The more subtle holographic impressions are the actual communication. The words cannot capture the depth. If you do not have an inflow of holographic impressions while reading these words, I would say not to worry about it. When you are ready to access this level of human potential, it will be like a door opening on its own. For those of you who have the Octurian disposition of telepathic calligraphy, as you read my words, focus some of your intention in the pine needle gland in the center of your head. This is the primary location for humans to receive Octurian information. As you keep relaxed focused, and that is a very important series of words, a relaxed focus, you will begin to have holographic impressions if you are of an Octurian disposition. Having laid the groundwork for the possibility of Octurian telepathic calligraphy, let us return to the topic at hand. And before we do that, a quick word from our sponsors. You guys know that I love a good workout. I love to sweat every single day. I work out about six days a week, at least two hours on my yoga mat doing Ashtanga Yoga or doing a bar class. When one works out, their muscles break down. I tell my students here in Atlanta, I've been sore for about 17 years. And as we start to age, we start to have a harder time repairing those broken down muscles. Now, a few months ago, my friend Catherine Edwards introduced me to the product Asiya. I had been offered sponsorships before, but I had always turned them down because the integrity of the company didn't align with my own integrity. But the more I studied about Asiya, the more I studied about the owners, the person who came up with the formula for Asiya, the more I liked this company. And then I started to try the product. So what is Asiya? Again, when you work out, when you rip your muscles apart, there has to be a rebuilding system. When that rebuild happens, that is when your body technically gets stronger. We have in our body something called Redox. Redox is this thing that helps. It's a signaling system between your cells. Now, when we are young, when we're kids, before we hit puberty, we have a lot of Redox. That's why children are young and healthy and they can fall out of trees and skin their knees and be fine and recover quickly. But as we get older, that Redox becomes less and less and less. So it doesn't really matter how healthy the cells are. And the cells cannot properly communicate with each other. This means that as we get older, we start to feel more body aches. We start to get wrinkles. We start to get saggy skin. We start to get gray hair. For men, this means that the hair starts to thin and fall out. Again, it's like having a cell phone. What's the good in having an iPhone, like my iPhone, if there's no cell system to work it? The Asiya is the cellular system. Now, again, I'm a pretty healthy person. I work really hard on my health. So I wasn't expecting a huge difference with the Redox. However, the benefits that I've experienced over these last two months of being on Asiya have been unbelievable. I feel younger. I'm sleeping better. I feel like my quality of life is better. Even my hair, I've always had really thick hair, but now my hair has gotten doubly thick and it's growing like crazy. I literally just got my hair cut like two weeks ago. And I am about to have to make another appointment to get it cut again because it is unbelievable how fast my hair is growing since taking this Redox system. My nails are growing faster. Even my boyfriend, my boyfriend who is in his early 50s is starting to thin out at the top of the hair as what happens to men. And even he is starting to notice his hair grow back, which is common. If you look at the stories from Asiya, so many men have grown their hair back simply by adding Redox back into their body. Their countless stories of people who've lowered their blood pressure, gotten off medications, cut their medications in half because their body is being supplied with the cellular system it needs to do what the body is supposed to do and that is heal itself. Now basically what you do is when you get your Redox then you can hear it's a liquid. It's a liquid. This comes with a little shot glass, a two-ounce shot glass. Most people will take between four and eight ounces of Asiya a day. I take eight ounces a day because I'm obsessed with this product. So you pour two ounces into the shot glass. You swish it around your mouth for 30 to 60 seconds and then you swallow. That's it. You can't overdose with this product. If you take too much, your body will just pee it out. Now when you take the liquid you're allowing the intelligence of your body to take the Redox where the body needs the Redox to go. I've told you guys before I struggle heavily with arthritis. And in the past I have taken medications for my arthritis but I do know that arthritis is caused by over thought. It's caused by anxiety. However, medication coming from my doctor only dealt with the issue of the arthritis, not the cause. But when I started taking me to see about three days into taking this, I noticed that I was a lot calmer. My anxiety had dissipated and I thought, how interesting is that? How interesting is that? My body knew that the source of the issue with my joints was coming from my own mind. So where did it send the Redox? To my mind. There's also a topical gel that I really like. So when you take the liquid, again, you're allowing your body its own intelligence to take the Redox where it is needed to help heal the body. But with the topical gel you are able to put the gel where you want it put. I have been putting this on my legs for a while now. It has helped so much with the tightening of the skin, with cellulite, with varicose veins. It's also helped with the soreness of my legs. My legs get real sore from working out. I've been actually even putting this on my boobs, you guys. Again, I'm 40. I've never had children, so my boobs don't drop that much. But I've been kind of putting it on my boobs too. And I tell you, my boyfriend really likes that. So this is a really awesome product. But despite the vanity, if you have a sore leg or a sore knee or a sore neck, you can put this on and direct the Redox into the area that is in pain or inflamed and the Redox will help with that. I even use this when I'm on my period. When I get my cramps, I take some of the Redox and I put it topically over the area where my uterus is. And it helps. My boyfriend, again, has been putting the gel in his hair, which is helping his hair grow back. Right now, currently, if anybody knows my boyfriend, he has covered in tattoos. He has been getting tattoos since he was in his 20. And he right now, currently, is getting one of his tattoos touched up. And so when he comes home tonight, we're going to experiment with the gel to see if the gel heals the wound of the tattoo even faster. Now, we want everybody, I want everybody to have the best quality of life that you can have. What's the point in being a human being if you're too sick or too off balance to be able to actually enjoy your life, to be able to actually work out and have fun or to go bike riding with your children or get down and play dolls with your grandchildren. This ASEA is going to help you and help your body achieve the life that you were meant to live in happiness and peace and help and in harmony. If you would like more information on ASEA, then please text Bryce Info to 321-216-8047. Again, that's Bryce Info to 321-216-8047. If you're texting from another country, please make sure you put plus one, 321-216-8047. And somebody will get back to you pretty quickly. You can ask any questions you like of the product. You can find out more information about the Redox system. The person on the other end of the line will walk you through every option available to you at this moment. They can even try to help you get the products at wholesale prices. So again, knowledge is power, knowledge protects, and knowledge is infinite. As I say all the time on this channel, if you want more information, please text Bryce Info to 321-216-8047. Our mission in regards to your planet. As I mentioned at the beginning of this topic, each dimension has its potentials and its limitations. The potential of fifth dimension civilization such as the Acturians is an expanded sense of reality. The limitations inherited in fifth dimensional reality are difficult to comprehend. Limitations to the fifth dimensional reality center around the relativity of perceptions. We Acturians can't imagine what it feels like to be human. Landlocked in time and space, affected by gravity well of your planet, but we can only imagine it. The same holds true when you think about fifth dimensional realities. We are both handicapped, as it were, by the dimensional reality we reside in. This creates a quandary for the mission. Our mission is to protect life, when it deserves to be protected, intelligence and freedom. This specific mission was established by Sunat Kumara and all of us working in the quandary to our under his command and ultimately his vision of how to serve the greater good of life, intelligence and freedom in your galaxy, in your solar system and on your planet. But we do not know what it is like to be human and experience those constraints that are part of your biological reality. Our bodies vibrate at a much faster rate than yours, as does our entire world and our technologies. So when we observe the aftermath of the Acturian mining expedition, we are faced with a perceptual quandary. The quandary goes back to the fundamental overtone of our civilization. The values of a civilization, whether it is terrestrial or celestial, plant-based or intergalactic, dictate its actions. To violate the fundamental viewpoint of a civilization would be its undoing. It would be like pulling a thread out of a piece of cloth. For we, Acturians, this overachieving value to protect life when it deserves to protecting intelligence and freedom is encoded into very light strands of our DNA. And so yes, to answer the question some readers, and so yes to answer the question of some readers, we Acturians do have DNA, but it is composed completely of light and vibrates at a much faster rate than your DNA. Whereas you have two strands of DNA, we have 24. This is not better than you. It is simply different than you. We actually have 12 strands of DNA, as I said in the beginning, only two are active. So the values of our civilization are encoded into our DNA. It is not just a mental concept as values are for you as a human being. They are a part of our physicality. They are hardwired into the matrix of our being. As a human being, you possess two strands of DNA. Within your DNA, there are many codones, which are yet to be activated. As mentioned previously, many of these codones in your DNA will be activated by cosmic triggers, cosmic trigger forces beyond your control. Because your DNA was manipulated by the Anunnaki for the purpose of making you a slave race, encoded into your physical DNA is the template to serve and to be submissive to a greater power than you. The Anunnaki accomplished this through advanced genetic engineering. It is simply a technology that was more advanced than yours, but the principles are the same. Once you know how to do it, you can go down into the DNA structure of a being, a physical being, a human being, a cow, a horse, a pig, an apple, a carrot. It does not matter what the organism is. Once you understand how to manipulate genetic information in that organism, you can program its behaviors. For those that got this, I've read that for people who are narcissists who have narcissistic personality disorder, this is now programming them to be more narcissistic, more diabolical. That's interesting, isn't it? So the Anunnaki manipulated your ancestral DNA to be a slave race and to serve powers perceived to be greater than yourself. It was from an engineering standpoint and genetic standpoint, brilliant work on the part of the Anunnaki. And I must say that as a scientist, I am impressed with the effectiveness of their genetic engineering. At the same time, however, as an octarian, I am furious at this because the manipulation has negatively affected your life, your intelligence and your freedoms. And this cannot stand, and this is the essence of our mission. Now, however, this leads us to the paradox and the quandary we face in assisting you. From a fifth-dimensional reality, we have to figure out how to best affect a lower vibrational reality without undue negative consequences. Our mission has a two-fold application, two parallel strategies. I will speak first the technology agenda of our starships, and then I will speak to the micro-tunnels strategy. Our starships are patrolling the sector of space to protect you from interference by the nefarious ones who would, in some way or other, continue the Anunnaki agenda. And by that, I mean they would imprison you as slaves and make you subservient to their will. It would serve little purpose for me to describe our encounter with these intergalactic tyrants because for you, it would be stuff of science fiction. So the strategy of our starship system is to protect this space around your solar system and specifically your Earth from intervention by nefarious technologies that are off-planet and from time to time. This involves skirmishes and in other times outright battles. Fortunately, we possess the most advanced technology that we are aware of anyway. The second strategy is to activate more micro-tunnels of communication with human beings. This is for the purpose of opening your minds to perceive new possibilities beyond the shroud of servitude, stupidity, and imprisonment that surrounds your planet. I am referring now to a physical shroud. I'm not referring to a planetary tone that is generated through your religions and other institutions, shall we say, that continue the Anunnaki agenda. Your religion is part of the new world order, you guys. Christianity, listen, listen, Linda, for those in the back who didn't hear. The listening Christianity is part of the new world order. It's part of the Anunnaki agenda. If you are still going to church, if you are still putting Jesus is my savior. Jesus means Hell Satan, by the way. On your Facebook statuses, you are serving the cabal. Yeshua was His name and He wasn't here to save you. He was here to teach you. He was a teacher. Teach you how to save yourself. Wake up. So when I speak to you in these words and I say the Anunnaki agenda, I wish you to understand something. This is for those readers who have the actuary in disposition and have been reading my words with some of your attention in your pineal gland. When I say the Anunnaki agenda, I see the holographic picture from the first moment of your manipulation to the genetic lab through the twisted and contorted history of your species, through the clashes between the renaissance of awakening and the forces that would squash it. The forces that would squash it. When I speak to you in these words and I say the Anunnaki agenda, I wish you to understand something. This is for those readers who have the actuary in disposition and have been reading my words with some of your attention in your pineal gland. The forces that would squash the awakening is the truth or movement. The truth or movement is not the great awakening. It's not the awakening. It's just another form of control and cult behavior. At the same time, I see the holography of your present moment in time. I see how those who continue to confine you and prison you and make you stupid do not value your life. I see these modern people continuing the Anunnaki agenda. So from this perspective, the Anunnakis are still among you even though they have left. The brilliant encoding of your DNA speaks to those who continue their agenda. 90% of the truth or movement you guys, 90%. At the same time, there are growing numbers of human beings waking up many more but not enough yet to see through the lives. When the Cassiopean said 3%, that's it. When enough humans begin to wake up to their great potential, human history will radically change. And so our decision as Octurians is to nudge along more human beings by opening microtunnels of communication and giving them access to our expanded sense of reality. As I said, this decision has been made and for better or worse, these are our two primary strategies. And you can see who these fake truthers are, you guys. Like every time somebody says their channel went down, there's a website you can go to that tells you whether YouTube took their channel down or whether the content creator took their own channel down. There are two tarot channels that have gone down from two different creators where they claimed YouTube terminated their channels. They took their own channels down to manipulate you into thinking that they had valuable information, they're working for the controllers. And you can see that you can look up those websites and see it tells you that they took their channels down. They weren't struck by YouTube, they took them down themselves to manipulate you. If this ever goes down, it will be because of YouTube and you'll be able to check that on me as well. So just don't, you know, as they say, what did he just say here? He said, at the same time, I see the holography of your present moment in time. I see those who continue to confine you and prison you and make you stupid. So these truthers who are telling you that these truthers who are telling you that the white hats took down their channel and you can just go check and see the truth, they're making you stupid because you're just believing them and you're not checking to see if they're telling you the truth. They're not, they're lying to you about a lot of things. They're making you stupid. I'm not stupid. I'm not stupid. I'm a researcher. I'm never just going to take somebody's word for it. I'm always going to research what they say because I own my own mind. You should own your own mind too. Even things I tell you, research and I tell you this in almost every video. Everything I tell you, research it for yourself. Don't take my word for it. I don't want to be your leader. Listen, I can't, I have a hard time controlling my dog on a leash. I'm not here to lead anyone. I'm a teacher. That's what people pay me to do off of YouTube is teach them but I'm not their leader. There's a difference between being a teacher and being a cult leader. A teacher's job is to eventually not be needed. That's my job, is to eventually not be needed by my students. Huge difference between a teacher and a cult leader. The demystification of ignorance. The paradox of communicating from fifth dimensional reality to third dimensional reality is similar to a hydrogen atom which possesses one electron comprehending potential bonds. Much like a human being, hydrogen atoms exist in their own peculiar space. From time to time, they bond with other atomic structures to create new configurations and new possibilities. Take for instance, the bonding of hydrogen and oxygen. Separately they are both gases, ephemal, highly transient yet when they bond together they shift to a different state altogether which you call water. It is water that characterizes the visual qualities of your planet from outer space. From the perspective of space, your planet is primarily blue. Water like human beings do not understand its own roots or its own configuration. It simply moves or sits according to its own nature and outside forces. If water had awareness like or similar to humans, it might understand that it covers about two thirds of the planet's surface. This would be its reality. But it would neither comprehend the fact that it owed its very creation to the haphazard bonding of two gases. Nor would it understand that third dimensional reality was only one possibility. Only those who view your planet from outer space have the possibility of understanding its orbital nature and luminous color on its surface. Historically, we view mankind's venture into space and your first view of Earth from that perspective as the benchmark of an expanding human awareness. Something happened to the imagination of humans who view these photographs of Earth from outer space. The tenuous and fragile nature as well as the exquisite beauty of Earth became apparent to any but the most dense and intellectually ungifted individuals. This simple shift in perspective of Earth viewed from outer space opened a doorway into greater planetary awareness. This shift in perspective, the capacity to view your planet from outer space is one step forward. But this perspective is still confined to third dimensional reality. The difficult facing you as a human being is one of hypnosis due to the operations of your brain and nervous system. You believe your sensory experience of the world to be the totality of reality but such is not the case. That is what yoga is about. Your perception is coming through your experience of your nervous system and don't believe ever you think or you feel because that's not the perception of reality. That's your reality from your past attachments to karma. It's not the reality of the experience though. That's why karma is neither good nor bad. You label it as such from your own perception. Even a far vaster, more complex, mysterious and odd universe than you could ever imagine. Your visual capacity is a result of evolutionary development in your optic nerves and visual centers of your brain. But these complex neurological structures only sense a very narrow bandwidth of energy spectrum. Unaided, you cannot see the ultraviolet light x-rays or gamma-radiation. Much less, the higher spectrum that your science has not yet discovered. But because your sensory experience of the world is so vast, you believe it to be real. But whatever you sense, be it through your eyes, your ears, your feelings, your taste or touch and smell, all of these are about small slivers of what is right before you. And that's where we'll end it today. We'll pick up next week with Earthbound Intelligences.

PCV: "La Internacional Socialista es un residuo reformista socialdemócrata"
Caracas, 14 may. 2014, Tribuna Popular TP.- Carlos Aquino, miembro del Buró Político del Partido Comunista de Venezuela (PCV), manifestó que la Internacional Socialista es el residuo reformistas de algunos partidos socialdemócratas del mundo, y que nació a consecuencia de la depuración que tuvo el movimiento comunista internacional en la segunda década del siglo XX, por lo tanto, sus declaraciones contra el proceso bolivariano "no nos extrañan".

de esa denominada internacional socialista, porque, en lo fundamental, esa que se llama internacional socialista es el residuo, e incluso el término, es el residuo de la depuración que tuvo el movimiento comunista internacional en la segunda década del siglo XX, a inicios de la Primera Guerra Mundial en 1914, existía la denominada Segunda Internacional, el papel que cada organización que conformaba esa Segunda Internacional tuvo con respecto a la Primera Guerra Mundial generó una división en esa Segunda Internacional, la fractura y la desaparición en la práctica de esa Segunda Internacional y, a partir de 1919, se crea la denominada Tercera Internacional o, como se conoce también históricamente, la Internacional Comunista, y, aparte, queda la que ha agrupado a las organizaciones marcitas y marcistas leninistas, y, aparte, quedaron organizaciones que se reagruparon y se autodenominaron internacional socialista, que eran, fundamentalmente, y lo siguen siendo al día de hoy, organizaciones socialdemócratas, organizaciones reformistas, no hay en esa llamada Internacional Socialista ninguna organización revolucionaria, todas las organizaciones que la conforman, son una fundamental organizaciones socialdemócratas y, por ende, reformistas, por ende, entonces, no nos extrañen y no podíamos esperar nada distinto a la decisión de esa llamada Internacional Socialista, quienes, por ejemplo, forman parte de ella, el PSOE de España, el Partido Socialista Obrero Espanyol, que es socialdemócrata, el Partido Socialista Portugués, que hasta hace los años estuvo en la presidencia también, llegó a la debate a ese país con políticas socialdemócratas, el más, el movimiento al socialismo de Venezuela, forma parte de esa Internacional Socialista, acción democrática, forma parte de esa Internacional Socialista, para que veamos la catadura de las organizaciones que conforman esa muy pomposamente llamada Internacional Socialista, por eso, hay que decirme, en primer lugar, que a los alumnos nos extrañen para nada una decisión de ese tipo, porque está en consonancia, está en correspondencia con la concepción de las organizaciones que conforman esa instancia, que en lo fundamental no son partidarias de procesos revolucionarios, entre ellos, el proceso revolucionario venezolano.

So, we'll first start about like what's a high level about error spike, where does it fit in your use case? And we'll quickly dive into the architecture of error spike. Why we think it is like superior compared to other non-seq file databases. So, why should you even consider error spike? So, this is not because we think we are great, but like people have been giving us credibility. So, this is Gatner research and they have a magic quadrant where they do analysis of softwares in a particular field. So, this particular magic quadrant is about DVMA systems, all DVMA systems, SQL, no SQL, everything put together. So, the top half is about like proven guys, like who have proven beyond doubt. So, if you see in the leaders, like you'll see IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, so who are proven beyond doubt. And if you see the left, lower left half. So, you'll see a busy activity going there. So, you can see all the popular names like MongoDB, CouchBase, Cassandra, all these guys, trying to execute and trying to figure out what needs to be done. But if you see one lone dot there, which is representing error spike in the visionary quadrant, so who thinks that they got the equation of the future right. So, I think like that's a big credibility that we got from Gartner. So, I just told you like where the world thinks we fit. And like, now this is like what we think we fit in the world. So, the top half is about your OLTP systems like your MySQL, which are totally off, and the NoSQL databases which you use to serve data in real time. All the OLTP systems. And the lower half is about your analytics softwares. So, the traditional analytics softwares are your Teradata's or Vertica type of systems. And on the right-hand side, you have Hadoop systems. So, in general if you see, the left-hand side is your monolithic single node systems. On the right-hand side, you'll see cluster solutions. So, we think the error spike fits in the OLTP space, but we are slowly expanding into the analytics space because like in our newer version of the product, we have aggregations, which are similar to, which is a MapReduce kind of framework. Not the traditional Google or Hadoop MapReduce framework, but we have our own MapReduce type of framework, okay? So, I'll quickly skip these lines because, so in general if you see what is big data, so the way we try to think about big data is like in three different categories. One is the volume, the other is variety, and the velocity of the data. So, volume is like you keep collecting all the web hits or your mobile tracking data, all the information and show it to your data stores, and you analyze them in the long-running jobs, right? Typically it is your logs and where you run your Hadoop MapReduce jobs and extract meaningful information out of this raw data, okay? And variety comes from different sources of the data. You have data coming from web, mobiles, sensors, all these things, and like all these different sources of data will have different types of representation of the data, okay? So, you have to transform in a unified way all the data, aggregate it and store it and use it later. And then comes to the velocity. So, the beauty of velocity is whatever you collected through your volumes and like analyzing that, the data coming from your variety of sources, you have to extract meaningful information and store it somewhere and use it, right? Without using it, all the data that you're collecting and analyzing is useless. And because you have a lot of data and you want to target a lot of people, so the systems which are serving velocity should be really, really fast. And that's why we have typical OLTP systems coming to picture. And like that's where we think AirSpike fits. So, this is like high level stuff, like AirSpike is all flash optimized SSDs. So, it's not that like, now that SSDs are popular, AirSpike started supporting SSDs. It's five years back, we decided that SSDs is going to the picture and like we never bothered about rotation file systems, okay? So, AirSpike can be configured in like three modes like which is totally in memory or totally on SSD or you can have in memory plus rotation storage also. But we don't support part of the data in rotation space but part of it in memory, we don't support that and we think that's going to be stale. So, this is throughput numbers, like you don't need to believe any of this now because you're going to see yourself when you're trying AirSpike today. But just to quote it, so this is a YCXB benchmark like where we reach you like 1.6 million TPS on a four node cluster in an in memory configuration. And single node clusters, if you want to see like we have blog posts talking about how to reach 1 million TPS using AirSpike on a single node in memory configuration again. And everybody thinks that like Amazon machines are slow, like you all are virtual machines, you cannot really extract very good performance from Amazon. So, we brought those barriers also, we were able to reach very close to 1 million TPS which is about like 960K TPS on Amazon machines. And the second, sorry, the last phase of this talk, I'm sure is going to talk about how to achieve that in Amazon machines. What are the choices you have to make on Amazon to get best performance on AC instances, all TCO stuff? So, we'll quickly go into the architecture part. So, probably this is most interesting for the leaks. So, if I had to summarize the whole of beauty of AirSpike in one word, it is just the hot spots in the whole system of AirSpike. So, my challenge for you in the next 20, 30 minutes is to find a hotspot in our system. There's no good answer, but let me encourage you to say that there are few answers which will come close. So, what do I say like, why do I say that there are no hotspots? So, if you see at different levels, we have nature that there are no hotspots anywhere. So, at a data distribution level, that means that sharding where we don't do rain sharding, which can typically cause hotspots. So, there is a default sharding mechanism, auto sharding mechanism, which is hash based, which will avoid any hotspots. And like note to note communication, the intranote communication, there's no hotspot. There's no special node in our cluster at all. Okay, so, every node is same. It's like the dynamic model. Dynamo model, I'm not sure if they have a cluster manager, cluster principle, where all the, for all the important nations, you go to the cluster, cluster manager, or coordinator, okay? So, you mean the hotspot? Okay, sorry. What? What do you mean, what do you mean? So, sorry, not necessarily failure. So, let's say there's a cluster coordinator, and if that cluster coordinator fails, and immediately I choose a different coordinator, that's not a single point of failure, but it's definitely a hotspot. Same with node to client communication. So, typically if you see other node secret services, like they have a configuration where like you say, you talk to one node in the cluster, and that node will easily turn tough to the other nodes in the cluster. We don't have that type. So, we'll talk in detail all these things. So, internally within the software, at third level, again, all the load is distributed between all the worker threads that we have. In terms of exploiting the cores on the machine, like we do a very good job of balancing the load on all the cores of the machine. Same at network, I think like network is one of the least exploited by most people. Because like you buy very expensive hardware, like with 32 cores or whatever, like you do a network on another board, that's going to suck. So, what you should invest is in network card which has multiple queues, where you can assign the interrupts coming from these multiple queues to the cores. So, a respect has an afterburner script which realizes how many cores you have, how many network queues that your network card has, and automatically distribute these network queues, or sorry, assigns network queues to the cores so that interrupts come in them or even it distributed across your cores, okay? And SSD level, so we have our own file system, we don't use the X-T4 file system. You can, you have an option, but we think that's not very fast. So, we have our own file system which does striping across hard disks or, sorry, SSDs. So, if you have multiple SSDs, you don't need to put them under a red controller to have good IO parallelism to do striping on things like that, okay? Just before diving into the architecture, so if you see like when you scale, right, things start to fail, like, and we have contingency plan or like mitigation plan rather, how to handle these things, like speed, right? So, every small bottleneck gets amplified when you're talking about scale. So, maybe like when you're doing it like 10K TPS per second, probably these things are not so important, but like when you're talking about 100,000 and a million transactions per second, every small thing matters a lot, okay? So, you cannot ignore them, even the smallest bottlenecks. So, machine starts to fail, right? Like if you have 100 node clusters, the probability of the failure of a node grows exponentially with the size of the clusters. So, it will be a nice solution if the software or whatever system you're using can do the same job in lesser number of clusters. So, because of the mental scaling that we have at AirSpike, so the same job can be done with a much lesser number of machines. So, network starts to fail. So, this is actually a hard problem and AirSpike is a AP system. So, what that means is if your network gets partitioned, it sacrifices consistency and we fall back to eventually consistent model where if the network partitioning restores, we do an eventual consistency, we merge all the data back and make sure that it is consistent. So, the load expectation. So, like you think, okay, for me like 30K TPS per second is enough, but like suddenly like your app takes off and like suddenly you are at one million TPS. So, expectations start to fail. So, you should have a lot of headroom and like we think AirSpike gives a lot of headroom. So, operations is again like an underestimated thing. So, if you have again like 100 or clusters, like somebody has to manage all these machines, right? So, and like typically they make mistakes. All these automation tools like puppet shaft makes this job easier, but like still mistakes happen. Some wrong configuration get pushed or whatever. So, what AirSpike does is like it removes most of the configuration needs. So, we do auto clustering, you don't need to set up something like, this is my master, this is my slave, you don't need to say any of that. So, to do a four node cluster, especially in Bell-Mettin machines, we support multicast. To have a four node cluster, you just put up four nodes. It will form a cluster on its own and it will also have automatic assignment of master and role nodes. It will do auto sharding. So, you don't need to say how to shard the data, you just can start doing deed sunrise. And auto rebalancing, if like one node goes down in your cluster, you didn't need to wait for some manual of it to come and say, okay, now rebalance this data. So, it automatically does rebalancing. So, and like this is like very standard, nothing unique to AirSpike. So, we pick the best default configuration, yet retain the ability to change them when needed. So, quickly about the data model, this is very typical of any classical databases, like you have namespaces, which is analogous to databases. So, database carries some properties like saying, where should this file, where should the data go, like which devices, which files it should go, like is it in memory configuration or is it on disk configuration and things like that. And we have something on sets, which are similar to tables. Just to have a logical organization of your data, nothing more than that. So, you don't need to create them in advance, like you can just create them on the fly. Okay, so record, so records will be like a key value pairs, but like the value part will have multiple bins, where you can set the bins, read specific bins or read all the bins of the record and things like that. So, the data types we support is like strings, integers, maps, lists, and we have something called LEDs, okay, why LEDs? So that restriction on the record size is the right block size that you define. So, in memory, we don't have a limit, you don't need to define a right block size. So, in memory, the limit is much higher, but when you use SSDs, what we have found with SSDs is like, if it is around like one MB right block size, your SSD behavior is very good in terms of IO, both reads and writes. So, we recommend to people to go about one MB. So, it becomes, one MB becomes your record size restriction. So, to break that barrier of one MB, we have something called LEDs, where we manage internally that one record spanning multiple blocks and we take, we absorb the complexity. So, you can say, you can think of it as ready list. So, we just keep adding to the list and just reading from the list. Okay. So, if a block size like a flight right block size is one MB, what abbreviation does that have on IO? IO performance. So, the number of throughput kind of reduces. Does that answer your question? I mean, so, you want to read block by block, right? But your records may be much smaller than that. Yes. We don't read the entire block, but we know the offset where we should start reading and if your record is like much smaller, let's say a hundred bytes, we packed a lot of records into this one block. So, we know where to read from and how much to read. So, your block is not pushing you to read it and now? No. No. No. No. Do you support commons? Sorry? Do you support commons? Do you support commons? Yes. Operations we support. So, we have increment, decrement, append, all these things. So, any questions about the data model? I think, oh, it's fine. So, in terms of architecture, I kind of already mentioned that like we have all the nodes in the cluster are equal for us, okay? So, everybody will be a master for some of the data and the replica for some part of the data. I think we'll cover that in detail later. And like then the clients keep talking to the clusters, so they will discover the cluster and they will talk. So, you just need to concentrate on your application logic. You don't need to do connection pooling anything yourself. Our client layer will do that for you, okay? And we have a cross data center product which will shift data from one data center to the other data center. So, the application within data center is synchronous replication. So, unless the write was written in two places in two nodes, we don't return an acknowledgement back to the client. But the cross data center geography application which happens across van links, it is done in an asynchronous way. So, this is a cross data center application. So, we tried to put no restrictions on the configuration between the source data center and the destination data center. The only restriction that you have is that both of them should have the same name space. The name, database name, that's it. So, let's say your source can be your in-memory configuration, your destination can be your on-disk configuration. So, how you can use, exploit this fact, let's say you have temporal data where all the writes coming like you write to this where you have an expiry period of, let's say seven days or two days, whatever you want. But you want to have more historical data on your other cluster. So, you can use XTR to keep streaming all the writes to your more persistent cluster and use this for your temporal needs. So, you can configure in multiple ways like active passive mode, active active mode. You can have a chain, so A ships to B ships to C. You can have mesh modes like A, B, C shipping to each other, parallely, all that stuff. Do you have a rack awareness? Yes. Rack awareness comes in the single node, sorry, within the clusters. Yes, so we'll talk about rack awareness also. Yeah, so I think like everybody keeps talking about disaster recovery, but I don't know how many people actually faced it. We actually faced it in Aerospy. So, during super strong standing, like this exhalates use case, but they had a super strong standing in New York, so their data center was getting flooded and they had half an hour to change everything. So, they had this replication ring going on and they just need to take out the New York data center out of it and they just short circuit the New York data center. So, the rest of the three data centers they have just continue to work. Like we got a good quote from that CTO. So, okay, we'll go a little deeper now. So, how do we do auto sharding? I was talking about that. So, every key that could possibly come in is already, let me step a little bit back, okay? So, we have partitions, okay? So, all the data will go into one of this four, okay, 4,096 partitions, which is hard-coded in the product. So, any key that comes is hashed using RIPE-MD hashing. So, RIPE-MD hashing is one of the best hashing algorithms which is used in the security domain for the least number of collisions, okay? So, any key coming into the database will be hashed into a 25 digest, we call it the digest, using this RIPE-MD hashing. So, based on the hash function, that is generated on the key, it will be assigned to one of these 4K partitions, okay? So, once, so these partitions are kind of virtual, right? So, they are not predefined or tightly bound to a node. So, depending on the cluster size or the number of nodes in the cluster at that moment, we assign these partitions to one of these nodes. So, if you see this whole sharding mechanism, one first-level sharding is static sharding, you can say, because that's purely based on the digest. And the next level of, sorry, I should not call the second level as a sharding, it's just a distribution. So, we assign the partitions to nodes depending on the size of the cluster. And as a cluster size changes, we reorganize the partitions and we'll go into details of how we do that part, okay? But partitions are a static area, okay? Not static, that's what I'm saying, it's dynamic. We take care of that. So, for every partition, there will be a master and a replica. So, who is the master, who will be the replica, will be decided on the flight? That part is dynamic. But once it has been decided, Yes. It will stay like that, sir. Unless the cluster size changes, it won't change. What? And the cluster will change only then. When a new node is added or an existing node goes ahead. Different partitions can be different. So, in this 4K partitions, let's say you have four nodes. Every node will be owner or master for one of the thousand partitions, right? So, every node will be master for a thousand partitions and every node will be replica for thousands partitions, more or less. You will take like maybe a little bit imbalance of five percent and ten percent. But then, this will still create non-balanced data. If you say like a non-balance to a amount of five percent to ten percent, yes, that's what I do. So, our internal test case has this test where they say like anything beyond five percent imbalance is not tolerated. So, the hashing is a trick here. So, the IPMD hashing is like one of the value I have assigned it to be most evenly distributed and least collision, both. So, this four zero nine six partitions is that configurable and not pre-certified? No. Unless we change in the product like which is hard coded, you cannot do that. And this is relevant to the number of nodes you have. That's right. And why did you decide on this number specifically? We think like 4K is enough. Let's say like, if you have 4,000 nodes then probably this is not a good number. But like with, we have internal again hard coded number to 128 maximum cluster size. So, if you have 128 nodes, this will be like 400 partitions each, right roughly. Okay, there are a bit. So, I think like 100 partitions owned by one node and like having replica is not a bad number. And is this hash function, is that confidential as well? No. This is a standard hashing algorithm. You get it in public. So, we'll go into clients. So, I was telling like the clients are also intelligent. So, what you have to do like when you want to talk to a cluster is you just give one seed idea of the cluster. So, the clients will figure out the rest of the cluster top because the cluster keeps talking between themselves and they discover the full cluster. So, they will communicate this information to the client and client knows, client will also ask, go to every node and ask, who are you master for and who are you replica for? So, if a request comes for a read or write for a particular key, it will know exactly which node to go to to do this write or a read. So, write always goes to the master but read can go either to the master or the replica. Okay. That becomes your single point. Again, not hotspot because there are like 4,000 partitions and this is evenly distributed. So, if you see like the load will be very evenly distributed. But, who will take the request? One client is typically a bad idea and you're talking about app servers layer and database layer. So, typically you will have like 40, 50 web servers running in front of like a corner cluster. Just sometimes the splitting of partitions will take 40 partitions, which is like starting from one again and then it goes to 30. Oh, no, no. Pre-defined, like the moment the cluster starts, this is 40. What if your partition will be like 100? It cannot go because again because of the hash function. So, hash function will evenly distribute all the keys in these 4K partitions. So, out of this digest, we put a few of the bytes and then again hash it to one of these 4K partitions. So, the hash function does all the trick of load balancing here. So, the hashing must be happening on one or two key. I mean, it could be composite key or single key. One key, right? It's a key value store. Right. So, every record will have a key and a value part. So, the hash is based on the key. On a key. On a key. Not on a computer. So, that's a unique identity for any record. Why? I mean, can I define that key? Oh, yeah. I can define that key. So, if then you rank a mind that enough is so that it will be in your list of 30 when the macros are gone. Correct. That's right. So, we don't take your key as it is and assign a partition to that. That would be a bad idea because that would create imbalance. So, how do you ensure data publication? Just in case there are certain sort of keys that are typically accessed together. You shouldn't assume collocation or you shouldn't plan in a way that these keys have collocated. So, I will do something with this. You shouldn't do that. So, it could so happen that you have multiple key clusters. Right. So, you have one data set. Yeah. For which you have one set of key value pairs. And then there is another data set that has a different set of key value pairs. Yeah. So, then you can organize into namespaces. So, like you put everything into this namespace or like a different namespace or like put it into sets, which are another tables. So, you should not plan your application to have data collocation across keys. That's your rain chatting, which has, which comes with its own problems. But the bins are collocated. Bins are always collocated, yes. So, you could, that is the case if you can choose a key which I know I can put. That's right. So, we have this list, maps, LTTs, data types. So, if you want something which needs very tight coupling, that's what you should be doing. Thank you. Okay, so, we're talking about client. So, the client, you just need to give a Cdip, it will discover everything, it will discover master codes. Directly send the read rights to the correct node. So, it's a single half from client to the cluster node. So, again, like we give all these semantics, like you can generate a transaction ID from the client and say for which I'm getting reply for doing asynchronous client libraries. We have asynchronous client libraries and we have auto retry logic in our clients. You can choose to disable that. So, we have all those options. So, SSDs like is one of the biggest strengths of Aerospy. I was saying like we have our own file system, we can bypass your file systems. But if you choose to use file system, you still have an option for that. So, one important thing to note in Aerospy is that all our indices are in RAM, always. Irrespective of your data is in the disk or not, the index is always in the RAM. So, why do we do that? It's to have very predictable latency. So, if you have everything in RAM like and the index trees are P trees, like the time taken for any key lookup is the same. So, and after you do the index search, you directly go to the disk, you know the location of the disk and how much data you read, you directly read it from the disk. So, you may start thinking that like if my process crashes, all these indices are gone, so I have to rebuild my index. So, we have a trick there. So, we use something called shared memory. So, if you have used shared memory, there's something called anonymous mode of setting up a shared memory, which doesn't need to have a process to set it with the memory. So, even if your process goes down, maybe you're doing an upgrades or anything like that. So, if the process goes down, like we, when you start the process again, we know exactly where to attach in the shared memory. We directly attach and we just quickly do a sanity check, whether the entire cluster index is in sync with the data, just the basic checks, and save it, we are ready. So, what you used to take like about half an hour before this particular feature, now takes about 10 seconds to restart your process. So, your indexes are not persisted? Every node will have its own index. So, in a way, index is also activated. Index is not persisted to this, if that's what you want to say, yes. And it is never persisted to this. It's never persisted to this. So, in the event that the whole machine goes down, which is much more rare than a process going down, we rebuild the index, we have to rebuild the index. There's no shortcut there. So, the index is an indicator, until you shift the index on the machine. There's no point, right? Anyway, you have to ship the whole record. So, again, do the operation of your right. Okay, index is a B tree, right? Sorry? Yeah, yeah. Index is a B tree, right? So, what if there is a lot of random data inside? So, every day, I get like 80 users and 20 users, every 30% of the data I see. What is the kind of operation I mentioned? Yeah, so, if you have to qualify more than a B tree, it's a red-black tree, sorry. I said, we treat it as a red-black tree. So, when it is a good data structure to support both a balance of reads, writes, and deletes. So, if you do a writes, if you just take a fully balanced binary tree, and if the root node splits, root node has to merge like you end up reorganizing a whole bunch of your data. But whereas the beauty of red-black tree is only you have a subtree of it just getting reorganized. So, it's a very good data structure to balance reads, writes, and deletes. So, you don't have like one bad phase where the entire tree is merging, like which takes like one second maybe. We never have that situation, okay? So, and like, okay, so, so we, okay, so talking about SSDs, right? If you take any software, replace your rotation disk with SSDs, it will go very fast, no doubt about it. But if you do that, the software will very quickly burn your SSDs if it is not handling the SSDs in the right way. And we think like we handle SSDs very properly because we never do in place updates. So, because writes can come at a very high rate. So, if you go and update, keep updating a same block. It's not like your rotation disk where it writes exactly at the same block where the original data was. So, what SSDs does is, so it will have its own blocks because it's like a EEPROM memory. It cannot update unless you erase the whole block. So, what does, what it does do? It has like 1K, 4K, whatever block size it has internally. Even if you update 100 bytes in that, it will create, it will copy whatever is there in this 1K block and modify your 100 bytes that you are trying to modify and write it in a new block. So, you are very quickly going to burn your SSDs if the software is not aware of this. Okay, so we never ever do in place updates. Sorry? Do you want me to append to log? Yeah, we have a log sector kind of file system where we read the original content and then do a buffer write in memory. So, when once we have this write block size like which is configured with maybe 1MB, once this 1MB block is full, we just write the whole thing into a disk. Okay? So, because of this thing like some, you have to mark some of the old records as deleted. So, it will keep generating some garbage or fragmentation. So, we have a background job which keep running to clean up this garbage. So, I already mentioned about this fast restart using shared memory when you are rebuilding the process has to restart. I also covered saying that like, you don't need to put this multiple SSDs or yeah, SSDs under a rate controller to have striping. We do that ourselves. So, if you attach four nodes again, this is based on the digest, we choose which SSD it will go to and we do the striping ourselves. So, again, no hotspot even at SSD level. Like you don't need to put every, all the data into one SSD. So, you can attach 10 SSDs to your box and say like, I want the namespace to use all these 10 SSDs. Okay, what we do is based on the hash which is used for partition assignment everything, the same hash function is used to decide which disk it will go to. This record will go to. So, again, because of the even distribution of the hash, all the SSDs that are attached to this namespace are evenly used. So, again, no hotspot at disk level also. So, there are more in-place updates. Yeah. It's a little bit of an update. Okay. It doesn't write it immediately back, it will do a buffer, right? All the writes that are happening at that period, it will be buffered when every block gets frustrated. Yeah. So, what is the probability of a failure, right? So, your concern is the durability. So, okay. So, the durability story of Aerospike is because you have synchronous replication. So, the probability of losing a data which Aerospike says or the system says it is committed is only, can only happen if two nodes goes down in the system exactly at the same time. So, if at least one of the nodes flushed its memory to the disk, you are not going to lose that data, right? Does that answer your question? That means changes are happening. They are being a multiple, same change. Yeah. And we do synchronous replication. So, unless it is written on the problem, the server will not respond back to the client that the write is done. But if you choose to relax this consistency guarantee, maybe for performance requirements, you have an option to relax this. But by default, it's synchronous replication. And that is one of the, every operation that is done. That's right. Why are you shooting a write? No, no. You have to, you have to set it at, namespace configuration. Namespace configuration. Sorry, the entire server configuration. Oh, entire. That's right. So, the SSD or? In-place update is just a technique used by different software. So, if you say like, traditional. Any device. Any device. It could be any device. Not to the other replicas. Not to the other replicas. Yeah. So, we don't do in-place updates. So, there are some software where they think that it is rotation device. And so, if you, you can directly go and update at the same location on the rotation device. We don't do that. Because if you do that, it will burn SSDs. So, again, like I was saying, that SSD is the strength of AirSpy. It's not because we know these techniques. We have a very exhaustive knowledge of what SSDs are good, what is not good. And like, we have a certification tool which is also open source. Which certifies the performance of SSDs, okay? And like on our website, if you go to our website, like, we have a recommended list of SSDs which qualify our ACT tool, like AirSpy certification tool. Again, like, these are like proven SSDs, but like, there are people like who say, okay, I, you may go with different SSDs for different cost reasons and all. So, again, like a good story around this is, when we were coming up with SSDs, like, like four years, five years back, like these SSDs were not reliable and like, they're just maturing at that stage. So, like AppNexus, which is one of the biggest customer has about like 100 nodes in deployment across four different clusters, like they have four SSDs on each machine. And like, they wanted to replace their entire set of SSDs on all the machines after a year, because at that time, like, SSDs don't have much lifetime. So, what they did, like, they brought some new Intel SSDs and said, okay, we want to use these SSDs. Said, okay, let us try our ACT tool on them. So, they didn't qualify. So, we said, like, they will not run. So, AppNexus canceled, like, SSDs, like, 400, order for 400 SSDs and like, at that time, SSDs is about, like, $500. So, that's like about $1 to $1 million out of getting canceled. So, Intel, like, why are you cancelling this order? So, there's, AppNexus said, because, they're expecting to satisfy this. Intel was arrogant, so, what is their respect? So, like, they came to us and, like, we said, like, see the behavior of SSDs. So, if you see the SSDs, right, like, you have to run them, like, for a long duration. So, when you just buy new SSDs, they'll have a lot of free space and the defragmentation at the controller level was very nicely. Overtime, it degraded. So, after a day, like, the performance going down, we suddenly fall down, okay? So, we showed this to Intel and, like, they realized that they had a bug in their firmware and they upgraded the firmware and, like, they gave the same SSD again with a fixed firmware. So, now they've passed and, like, we went ahead. So, every time Intel releases a new SSD, they give us free SSDs now. So, same with Samsung, OCC, all these guys now. Okay, already covered briefly. So, self-configuring clusters. There are two modes in which you can form clusters. One is a multicast mode, where to start a four-node cluster, you just put up four nodes. The multicast IP is specified. They discuss on this multicast IP, discover each other, form a cluster. You don't need to do any of this. Again, master-node assignments. So, typically, this is a blocking phase and, like, which lasts for about, like, 100 milliseconds. Okay, we cannot take reads and, sorry, the writes during this period because the master and pro-ownership is changing at this moment. So, the writes which are already initiated may fail and it can be returned and they'll succeed after 100 milliseconds. So, what happens during when you're adding in... What happens during the re-balancing phase? No, this is only when deciding the new master and replica modes. And the rebalancing can go for a long duration where the data gets migrated from the old master to the new master of a new replica. Okay, during this phase, we accept reads and writes. Because we know... So, read and write performance impacted by these rebalancing... It does impact because, first of all, there's a lot of network traffic going around and it's equivalent to doing the same amount of writes on those nodes where you are shipping the data to the new masters and new replicas. So, it does take an impact during that period. Again, there are tunables where you can say, like, at which speed you want to do the replication, how many threads you want to do and, like... You can tune all of this depending on how much hit you can take. Okay? So, the important point is, like, while during this whole rebalancing, we continue to take reads and writes. So... Sorry, that's a good question. Yeah. So, all the writes that are happening during this rebalancing will be general so that the migrating data and the new writes that are coming are not lost. So, once we migrate all the data, we make sure... Go through the journal and make sure all the writes are in the partition. So, is your custom management protocol homegrown or you're using Jdo... It is homegrown, but based on the standard faxers algorithm. It is homegrown. We wrote it ourselves. We don't use anything. Not JdoP. We don't even believe in other file systems. So, we wrote our own. I think, like, yeah. So, consistency during writes, I think, again, I already covered all that data gets synchronously written to the replica. You can relax this if you want all buffer writes queuing to the disk, all that standard stuff. So, we have second indices which are built synchronously again, not like some other softwares which will asynchronously build these second indices or use. So, again, what's the point there? Are they like... Second indices are pretty standard, right? So, you want to get all the records, all the information about people like living in the city, Bangalore. So, you can create a second index on your bin of city. So, we make sure that we update these as indices in a consistent way. So, we preserve the asset property as given by the rate, okay? So, how do you query the as indices? Again, because we distribute the primary keys evenly across all the nodes. So, for every second index query that is coming in, again, the second index query has to go to all the nodes. So, it is kind of a MapReduce, but you don't need to write any logic for that. So, it goes to every node to execute this query. All the nodes form the data to the client back, okay? So, all of this happens in parallel. Same with aggregations. Aggregation is giving this MapReduce framework to you. So, you can say like, I want... So, if you want to run more complex queries, right? So, let's say you want to aggregate the average age of people in Bangalore, but with some other clauses. So, you can write any complex logic that you want in the MapReduce framework. So, what happens is like, once you trigger this job, the map and radius phases happens at every node. So, once the radius phases happen at every node, the result is pumped to the client which triggered this aggregation job. And the final reduction happens at the client which triggered this, okay? So, the MapReduce job is written in Lua. So, this is like something in internals, like thread model, we follow as a model internally. So, we pass the workload from one set of threads to the other set of threads and make sure that one thread is not overloaded. So, again, we use the same digest function to distribute the load to one of the worker threads and get the job done. Again, like thread core pinning to make sure that the threads don't keep jumping from one core to other from one socket to the other socket and things like that. Handling the network I already covered. So, our auto-burner scripts takes care of assigning queues to the cores, all the end of handling, CPU handling, all cache-friendly in SL1, L2. All our indices are 64 bytes so that it is very end of cache-friendly, definitely end of cache-friendly. Again, like vaticarnals, all that stuff. That's the theory part. Any questions on the theory? What is this for serialization, data serialization? So, we use message-back for list and mass, for strings and native assets. No, no. Serialization. So, how do you handle the logs? Is it at the record level or at the ground level? Yeah, that's at the record level and if we talk in terms of assets, we give a committed-read-isolation level. I'm sorry. He's asking what is the locking semantics? Is it at record level? Yeah, it is at record level and if we talk in terms of assets, we give read-committed-isolation. So, you cannot read data which is changing. What if your transaction is spanning across records? Yeah, we don't have multi-record transactions at the moment. All the key value interactions are like single-recorded. So, the transaction starts internally and ends internally. We don't give the control to that or anything. This is so much hardware-dependent, SSD and everything. So, if we have to offer it as a virtualized mode, is there a virtualized mode? So, the whole rest of that today, we'll be working on virtual mode and you'll see that's not really the case because you can run in memory mode which doesn't have any specific hardware needs. But behind the scenes, the SSDs which are popping up. But, EBS? SSD is optional. So, you can run, set your namespaces into your name in memory mode. You can also say like, I want my data in memory but I want to store in a rotation device for persistence. And it's like continuous persistence, not like snapshot. Yeah, EBS latency, if you see like, they're not guaranteed and like, the direct-attached rotation devices will give you an average of five millisecond latencies but EBS will give you like anywhere from 10 to 40 millisecond latencies. So, can't really depend, but we are getting our story around EBS so that's some story in making that for a respect. No. This is not like your traditional SQL databases where you can join, but like if what people use, what they do is like, they have these tables sitting in memory at the client layer. So, what they can do is like, you can run your second index, build this table and then run one more second index and you do the join yourself. So, the database assets doesn't give that but there are people who are already doing these joins at client level. No, bins don't have a specific sort of. So, there's some distance, there are some instances of them, the large ones presently should be... Yeah, but it's a set of columns, right? You can equate it to a set of columns. See how, and like this is flex schema, like trends, typically they need it. So, you can say like, my record has only three bins but this record has many more bins like you can do any of that stuff. So, nothing is predefined, flex schema. Okay, the bin, I can have six bins of this. No, no. It's key and bins. And how do you look up bins? So, you can... They're not like five bins. Yeah, the client API you can say, I want all bins of this record or you can say, I want like bin one, bin two, bin three. So, it will go fetch one. Sorry? I can look up based on this. Just the bin names. No, no, bin names. Yeah, you can think of it that way. Let's not call it key because we'll confuse with other key. Yeah, just bin names. So, like if you use Java client, right? So, it will be automatically mapped to a Java map where you can simply say like, from this map, give me bin one. So... And how does that start to, again, the bin names are different. So, I'll give you the... Storage layer? Yeah, so for the time series thing, right? Which may typically go beyond the typical record block size. You should be using LEDs where you can keep appending like beyond the right block size. Okay. And like for that, there is an API for list data type. We call it L list, large list. Where you can say, I want the record from like this offset to this. So, from 15, next 20. The way you mentioned that there can be some, like, near hotspot things that you could ask about. Good that nobody came with that. So, yeah, I think like... I think that the controller itself for the SSD could become a hotspot because, as of now, most of the display, the SSDs are SATA-based. And off late, new builds of SSDs are PCIe. PCIe contract. So, the controller needs to be changed because the controller itself becomes a body like that. Yeah. Again, all these controllers now have like 32 queues at the controller level. So, controllers are also becoming smart. But if you want to overcome that bottleneck, you can always add multiple SSDs. Right? So, instead of buying like one terabyte SSD, buy like four of 200 GB SSDs. So, that's like work around. Currently, you don't support the new build of... For PCIe, you can attach. You can attach. And, like, you can say like, Linux file system, right? A raw file system will abstract out this for us. Okay. So, you don't need to directly get access as a PCIe device. We don't do that. We access it as a raw device. So, coming to the hard spot, like what could be a possible hard spot is like, if there is a skew in your application, right? So, the vice-a-sp benchmark that I was mentioning, so, it generates a Zipfian distribution. So, what that means is like, 50% of the read rate request come to one key. And, like, 25% will go to two keys. Next 12% will go to four keys. So, the load is like very skewed, which is not a good... So, at your application level, also you should try to solve that. So, I mean, for that kind of case, I don't think there can be any database which does like just two levels of three levels of replication can solve that problem. So, if you have like 10-way replica, all these replic... Request coming can be distributed on these 10 replicas that you have. But again, it's a trade-off between that and whether you can maintain 10 replicas, synchronously. So, probably that's the closest answer that comes to your hard spot. What's your pre-language? So, we have clients in almost all popular languages, like C, Java, C-sharp... So, pre-language, what do you... Sorry? What do you use for pre-language? Again, I think like... Yeah, so, if you're asking for recommendation from our side, so, any event-driven models are pretty good. So, they're very nice on the CQ. So, for RDB, we must be a SQL. You can go and look at the content of the collection. So, we don't have a SQL ourselves. So, all the API is... All the query mechanism is API-based. So, we have the query client-based in different languages. So, today, we'll go on the Node.js how to query. So, you can see the same pattern in all the languages that we support. So, at the application level, the operations are simply connect, get, put, delete, second and next query, all that stuff. So, all of that will come with APIs. And we are in the process of probably coming up with some SQL. We don't have our own SQL yet. But we have a SQL-like thing in SQL, which we'll show for like, operation in SQL. How do you want to meet people using Aerospy? Skip that slide because you may hate marketing. Okay, so, in different verticals, like in mobile vertical, by by advertising. So, by by advertising is one of the strongest domain for Aerospy because these are the guys who started having scale problems now. Every other industry is making up to that. So, mobile and by by advertising is having the more scale problem because they want to track everybody in the world. Everybody's visiting any website in the world. So, like, you can imagine the scale at which they operate, right? So, then marketing, search, retail, space, like for product listing. And if you want to talk about Indian customers, like we are in movie, marketing, mapping, filming, and business. Okay, indirectly, a lot of big companies use that because Oracle bought responses and one more. Look at it. Look at it. So, Oracle is a lot of customers. If you want me to say that. And Twitter is our customer because they bought mobile. Mobile. So, if you see this slide, right, one interesting thing is like Google, Google app is probably the top spot in the web traffic and advertising world. So, if you leave out Google, like nine out of the top 15 companies who have this advertising are powered by Aerospy. How is this one slide, but I couldn't read it. Did you read a blog from Google? Sorry? There was one slide. Oh, you want to see the numbers? But I couldn't, yeah, I couldn't see from here. Yeah, while I'm moving the slides, you might have seen a recent blog from Google Compute Engine where Cassandra achieved one million transactions per second using 330 nodes. We can do it with probably three nodes. Yeah, so this is the graph. Like, so this is Aerospy, which was like probably two years back. This is 2.0, this is 3.0, now that's a default. And like this is Cassandra, Mongo, Couch. So again, the important point is not just about throughput, it's the latency. So if you see the latency is like all the way up to 200,000 transactions per second, it's like under one millisecond. Like where you see as the throughput goes up, their latency keeps increasing. Yes. This is like different, but that's right. This is a great latency. This test is performed by you guys? This is YCSP benchmark. Oh. Done by thumbtack? Yeah, sorry, thumbtack. Cassandra is really bad. So, any other questions? So you said nine out of three people other than Google? Google? Or to the other system? No, no, never. Yeah. Sorry, 3D is performed at? Yeah, well, to answer your question, others actually started before we existed. For example, turn, build their own. Rocket fuel has something which they're patched together in a bunch of times. So they all built their own systems. Just like Google there. Which we completely understand all the solutions. Yeah, and some of them have been switching to us most recently. Two of the top one is switching over. We hope to get all of them. Is this like the difference between Cassandra and like the one that you said is like huge? Like you said, they use 3D nodes, so what do you mean 3D nodes? That is very difficult to do. How many have so much more efficiency over them? Because that is their respect. No, they have to do it. So that's why I don't believe these numbers. You'll see it today. We'll show it live. I mean, I'm sure they are not so dumb that. No, no, no, no, no. Okay, you said something like this trigger something. I'm sorry, I have to, is it okay? They're not dumb at all. Definitely very clear. It's very possible that they are smarter than the people in AeroSpike. That's not why we are better. We are better because our philosophy, what we have done is we've taken the speed of hardware as it goes down. We have taken our system, we've written the database. You know, I'm a database person who has worked on IBM and so on 25 years ago, the PhD in databases. And I know how those systems are written. They're written for optimizing a rotational disk. The example I have is, rotational disk is like visiting in Bangalore. Rotational disk is in California. Main memory, well, with Bangalore traffic, it's like 10 meters away or something. So it's close, okay? SSDs are maybe like half a mile away, one kilometer, two kilometers away. When SSDs came in, everybody slaps an SSD, and Sunil mentioned that. You slap an SSD in an oracle, it'll go five times faster. We will go 100 times faster. Not because we weren't compared to the oracle, but we took SSDs and what Sunil wanted out, we wrote the database storage system. That's number one. That's the SSD base. In memory, there is multi-core. You know, I don't know how many of you are database experts, but you must have seen, some of you at least must have seen Postgres, you know, the inventor of Postgres, right? Like Mike Stoemrikers, paper in like 2005, 2006. He said like, it's time to read out the database because all the old stuff, it just doesn't work anymore because hardware has changed so much. There's more main memory, there's more multi-core. So that's the other aspect of things that Aerospect did. So we wrote the entire database from scratch in C as fast as it could go against the hardware that existed today. They can't even compete. How can you? You use Java. Come on, man, I mean, it just goes to lunch. Every time you do garbage, we're talking about one millisecond. One millisecond is not even in the, you know, Java doesn't do anything one millisecond. It just sits there. And that's nothing to do with it. You use it for applications. I'm a Java programmer myself. Don't use it for systems, which are real-time. And that's the philosophical thing. And anybody can do what we did. It would just take you four or five years since more people like Sunil and others and Raj, the other guys sitting there would get about one million transactions per second for us on Amazon, if you look around sometimes. But the point is, you just work on it, okay? We worked on the hard problems. And these are the results to show. And that's why we're making it open source. And now you guys are here. Are there any comparisons with Hanna? Hanna is a SQL-based system. So probably it's not a good comparison for to do signal key lookups with a key value store versus signal key lookups in Hanna. They're like it's not on joins and all that stuff. But they're doing the same, Dr. Srinivas. Try doing updates in Hanna and do a query. And come back and tell me what happens. That's the difference. We are a read-write system. You can do queries and error spike. You can do a backup on error spike. It will run with high throughput reads and writes. Hanna is used for typically analyzing, what are they called? You know, when you go to a store, you have a transaction, it's on your cash register. Right? Internet is an order of magnitude. Two orders of magnitude bigger. And cash register transactions go on to work. And that's what error spike runs in. Hanna runs from that. You stick everything in memory. It is still enterprise-based. And it's, I think, that's the whole world-medicine memory. And the truth is, they are solving a problem at a certain scale where there are not that many updates. So it works. And not having updates, problem is actually an order of magnitude easier. You can think following it. If you don't have updates, it's actually an easy problem. If you have updates, it's a lot of problems. That's what other things you think about. Yeah, if my time may add, right, I was working with Saib. Come, come here. So that is the end. Okay, so I was working with Saib. It's these days, so it's acquired by SAP, right? Hanna, I looked at Hanna. Hanna still have a problem that, there are two problems. First problem is that, entirely in memory, okay? So what it means is when you're running real Hanna system in your application now, your cost of power is more than your license cost of Hanna itself. The amount of RAM that these days need is humongous. Secondly, they still cannot take updates at the pace they would want to. So what they have is they have two stores. One is the store which talks about only the update part and the other part which everybody talks about taking the live reads and writes. And the system they work on is mostly ERP and CRM system which is mostly manual driven. They're not still not got to a point where they can do internet of things where they're actually tracking all your trucks and all their equipments and all at that level. And they are rewriting the stuff for SSDs anyway, so. I mean, they are still growing, they are learning about the stuff. To compare, we are a little bit ahead in terms of technology, in terms of SSDs. And of course they are smart people, so they do really good stuff on memory, but they are solving a pretty difficult problem in terms of lot of, no SQL stuff doesn't do everything which relational it does. They have a hard problem to solve and they're solving it. And they solve it pretty well, but they have their own set of problems. You cannot just run it. People like us, startups cannot run it at all. You will cost, billion dollars in a bill of electricity is not something you can afford, right? So, just some addition of this one. You talked about in-memory and systems and memory hazard. So, just curious if you can, do you recommend using maybe Aerospy as a cache as well? Sorry, sorry. Sorry. So, do you recommend using maybe Aerospy as a cache? There are customers who use it as a cache. Yes. So, they do use a cache again, right? I didn't concentrate on much on one slide. So, if your data size is too big, right? So, instead of having, let's say, 20 machines with like 100 grams each, you can put that whole thing in like three node cluster with an SSD. So, it finally boils down to faster case study, like which I skipped is like, where we replaced 192 in-memory machines with 18 Aerospy machines with SSD. So, we could store the same amount of data in like much more smaller memory, sorry, smaller number of machines. So, because like machines, right, you have to cancel a lot of cost, like power cost, maintenance cost, all these things. So, like we could do the same thing, sorry, not the same thing with 10X, but throughput with 10X less at fast, that end-to-end fast. Let's see your, what I understood, you also explored, basically, you have taken two advantages of the fact that one, the fast of SSD is falling really fast, and the access latency is much closer to main memory. That's exactly right. So, probably, I would probably use it like a cache in between. Exactly. But then, because if the cost is dropping, the cache becomes a little bit bigger. Right, that's right, that's exactly right. So, we'll take a... Similarly, sir, with the biggest scale of the store, I'm not aware of the biggest scale. Big sequel. Anybody know about big sequel? I don't know. You know about slow sequel. I've written it myself. Can you use parts of your system, like this, maybe just the file system here itself? If you want to store in a file system, you can do that as well. I don't know about your file system because it's off the map of files. I mean, because I'm guessing you also taken into consideration the variant of this flash as different write problems, characteristics of the rotation disk. Okay. So... I didn't get your question completely. He's asking if he can just take your file system part. We use it for entirely different things. That should be possible. Yeah, so let me give a story behind that, sir. There's one company called Fusion IO, where we actually ran the entire error spike as a disk controller in the drives. Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying. So, because... For example, I think Linux has a button interface. Razer, you're not talking about Razer. No, no, no, Razer is predominantly for rotational disks, but I don't remember the name. There are certain file systems that Linux supports open source, which are specially designed for flash. So I just wanted to know if I can use that, or how does it come out? Do you have any problems with that? Not just the storage level. We don't have that. But like, you know, saying that we are open source now, you can strip it out, but if you make any problem... No, but... Is it like, is it a tightly coupled, that it might be hard? It's not too tightly coupled because we have to support multiple storage models. Like, we have a clean interface saying that I want to store this record. So in the code, right? But if you see, the transaction layer says, I want to write this record to disk. So internally, it's like overloaded function, which will either go to memory or SSD or KBS store. So probably you can strip out that layer and put your storage logic above that, or commit logic, whatever it is. So I think it should be possible. So because our storage layer is separate, because we have to separate, support different types of storage, we wrote that with a clean interface. Just let me know if I'm doing the offline. What's the file system? Do you have any optimization? For example, on the file system, the file system will rise up. Pure file system you are asking? Yes. The standard file systems, not raw file system you are asking, right? Yeah. Pure file system, I'm saying, on flash. Okay. Does it have any optimization? For example, rise up is, I know, there's a lot of optimization for small files. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So a lot of small things. Small things. Small things. Do you have any such optimization? We kind of do that because I was answering, I think his question was, if my record is like just 100 bytes, my write block says it's like one MB. What do I do? So I show in all the records into one block and write that whole block. And when I update, I just read that, say that mark that this is deleted and write to a different location. So we have that optimization, but that optimizations are tuned specific to key value store needs. Because you have the same kind of chunk and long-size optimizations that you have to use for even distributed files, right? Yeah. Now, we can face pretty much similar problem. How do you choose? Because if you choose a really small chunk size, then basically you store a lot of metadata for like a large part. So I just wanted to know whether it's like enable or then optimize? Yeah. So I think like if you're talking about Hadoop chunks and all like those chunks you have to remember where are the replicas at the chunk level. We don't have those needs. Yeah, you don't have those needs, but I'm just as an example for chunks. You have to think about those things because if the chunks is really large and you're not doing any packing in that, then you're actually losing a lot of ground space. But if you make chunks as really small, then again, we have the other end of the spectrum where you have a lot of metadata about each link. That is true. So again, like metadata is just a bitmap of all these blocks that we haven't say how much amount of it is free, that's it. So we don't have those needs. So it is kind of tailored to our needs, but I don't see a reason why you cannot exchange it. Do you have any references from financial services industry? Oh, we have all pumplets. I don't want to distribute in a deep content. But okay, so tomorrow if you are coming to the conference, yes, we have all the collateral to distribute, yes. Do you also cater to hybrid workloads as in both transactional line warehousing? Like I was saying, our core strength one year back was like pure OLTP. Now we are moving into analytics space where we have our own MapReduce framework which you can write your MapReduce jobs. So we are slowly stepping into analytics space. Yes. So we are already there. And have you done any comparisons with some of the NMVD records like MPV spam or Jamfire? But like we compared with all the traditional and secret areas. To add about that, what other company are you using it to buy? I'm little known, I don't know that what other company is you just wanted to add to that. So Rocket Fuel is one of the companies that it is using edge based and they have it in something which is very much optimized for that, right? So the kind of problem that you face is that you get a lot of delays, a lot of random leads, right? That is where you get a problem. When you do sequential insights, you really don't get a problem. The production price is like that. Everything has to be very, right? And at the same time, but we need a persistent core. There's a lot of optimization that you actually do. Some things could be actually done on the application layer, something like that. So we are somewhere around, you do a partitioning scheme, then you do a pre-partitioning and then you make sure that your partition doesn't have to be split, like you did hashing and other things like that. So these are some of the areas which companies have overrout figured out when they actually started using them when companies like EOS write a model and they put something on top of that. And certainly it works that it doesn't work, but it works. But you have to go over it two years to understand how that normal system actually works, right? So it can affect your model in MongoDB. These can actually affect, but you would take around two years, go through a lot of engineering work. Customize for your needs. Customize it, right? And here you go with it. I don't know that it does. No translation, Sabin. I think. Thank you. So we'll take a quick 10 minute break and then we'll get started, like hands on with the respect. What's the final video? I'm going to look on the scheme. If you're okay with that. We have little, we don't think you can select. He's enough for all the touches. Just a few. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. Next time you'll have to say, he was not in the previous team. I don't care. He was beautiful. Nothing was the best for us. I think he must have been. I don't think so. He asked for suggestions. I said nothing was the best, right? So here, what you have to say. Okay. Yeah. We'll log in to the incident center. We'll log in to the, so each one of you will get one machine. We'll log in to that incident center. Yeah, I'll share this collaborative. I think everybody should open this collaborative. Let everybody come. Okay. Where is that? There. Collaborative.com. GQYXT. GQXYT. Everybody who's already here, can you open this? You are in. Collaborative.com. GQXYT. So whatever I'm typing, I'll put it in this page and everybody can just copy base the commands. GQXYT. GQXYT. Collaborative.com. GQXYT. No, just view this document. Collaborative. We open the web page. Yeah. What to do after that? I'll let you handle it. So, See, everybody's seeing this page, right? The commands are here. Yeah. Okay. This programming language, I think I'm getting a choice to move it out. But anyway, I think like, once you start seeing that page, you don't need to see it. This is only to share my comments with you. Please don't. Sorry? No, this is a general one. You can use the chat box if you want to make fun. Okay. I hope everybody is, sorry? You're doing the first quickly one? So, when you enter this, this small slip was distributed with an IP. So, okay. So this will be your recent instance Sorry? Yeah, I think like we have more, don't worry. We have a hundred of them. Can we access this? Yes. You'll be logged in later. Yeah. Why are you... First we need to download this PM file to log in to Amazon. So, I'll just show you that. So, the PM URL is a secret key. So, pick this URL and say like, curl history. If I should. Let me copy paste this one. Everybody is hacking this? Yeah, so there's a curl command. Just copy paste the curl command. You'll get the PM file. Where do you copy paste it? In your shell. So, if you run the command, it will copy into your shell file. Some people are using Windows. They may not have parallel installed or something like that. Yeah, yeah. You don't have any virtual machine? Yeah. Is somebody purely on Windows? We have virtual machines. Yeah. So, we'll just search there. That's all we need to do. But you can use the PM file. You can supply the PM file. So, if somebody used only Windows and now how to log into EC2 using PM file should help. EC2 user. So, once you... So, once you download the PM file, you just have to do this command. Use your IP here. Is it fine now? Yeah. So, once you download the private key, so you just do a search minus. No, really download it. Can you just... Is it start or step? Yeah. This is the one. Yeah, just a second. So, you need to do this. See, it's smart to say it should be read only. So, once you had the EC2 user and your IP, the IP that was given on your slip. It was made use of the code command. Sure. Can you tell me? It's not able to download the command. Yeah. Now, you had to change the mode. So, you had to do CH mode on the PM file. Only 4.0 0.0 will work. Can you help people if somebody started? Can anybody start? Please call our folks, can you? Yeah, if you have shell... But, shall we mention it? The public key should be obtained first, is it? Yeah, you have to download your CH mode and then log in using this. It says permission denied within private. It says complete. Yeah, actually, I don't... Did you have CH mode? Yeah, I've done CH mode. So, this is the error that I got if I didn't change a protected key. No, I didn't. That's not the error. I have to use the IP address. Yes. Yeah, you have to use the IP that is given in the... Yes. I think some people are using the second one, so don't use that. Use this one first. This will get your private key. Yeah. Is this clear now? Step one, step two, step three. Just one of those comments. Yes. So, can you please pack the big key? This is the... I mean, just in case, I have to type. Need to read the address. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it is getting read out. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah, double-edible. Yeah. So, how many places are we getting here? In the excitement. How about you? Excitement? Yeah, I think that's the same question, so I don't see anything like that. It's private key. It's private key. It's private key. Okay, I think we'll proceed. People who are stuck with Windows and putty, sorry, I don't know how to use it up. We have file directly in this magazine. See you in a minute. Sorry. So, once you do this, like we are going, so, Errespect has a, Errespect monitoring console, we call it AMC. So, you can see different statistics of the server that is running on that machine on that type cluster. So, we'll start the Errespect server and see, like, what's the values in AMC and stuff like that. So, we'll also generate load and see, like, what GPS you are able to get on those boxes. Okay, so, remember that, like, right now, the boxes are, like, wrong, which is not tuned. So, I'm sure it's going to talk about how to tune them to get even better performance on the same boxes. Okay. So, once you're on that, so there is a... No, no, it's taking time. Oh, somebody posted a, you are in use-portion with PM file. So, please do that. Okay. So, you have to know what is your public IP, what is the public IP of this box that you are locked in with. So, you have to run the laboratory command to get the public IP of the easy test that you have. So, everybody will have their own public IP. You will see this. So, my public IP is, like, 4 to 10. Oh. Okay. Actually, the slip that you have is your public IP. I was down. Okay. So, the... Okay. So, the AMI instances that you have already have AresPyke installed, the latest AresPyke installed in this AMI. And it also has the AMC software. It also has a load generation software we'll use to generate load. Okay. So, before starting, let's see how the configuration looks like. Can you change the profile of the item? Light background should be hard to be... You can say load pieces to... Light background to white and foreground to... Light background, yeah. Did it change? Please start now. Oops. Is this better? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, do I have to get to the post office? Yeah. Password is... Password is... Password is... So, we can say the VM... So, we can say the VM... Password is... Escape. Password. Password is... Is it better now? Yes. Okay. So, you just have to do... You want to see configuration file... AresPyke... AresPyke.com So, just... You want to see the config. So, the... The service section is something which is applicable across the node, across the namespaces. So, we will have a service section where it defines like user, group which you've done, PID file, number of threads, transaction tools, etc. And then like where you want the arrow log file to go, the logging section tells that. So, the network section... We have to touch on this. So, network section tells like how to form the cluster. So, EC2 doesn't allow multicast in its network. So, what we have to do is fall back to the mesh model where you can set up the cluster node explicitly. It's only if you are doing everything hands-on. So, the two... One workaround we have is... We have something called cloud formation script. I'll quickly demo that later. Where you just don't need to do any of these steps. You just use cloud formation script. Say that this is the number of size of the cluster that I want. It will spin up all the instances, edit the config file accordingly to create the mesh, and it will form the cluster. Okay. So, this is how the network is configured. So, if you have multicast, right? So, the last few active lines will not be there. It will be just three lines, mode multicast, address the multicast address that you want to use, and the port. Okay. Quick check. Are there still people who haven't logged into EC2? Yes. So, I have just added two more lines to the cloud edit. That's a username and password. You can log into that machine, and from that machine you can just... So, then this is the namespace configuration. Right now, we didn't configure disks. So, there's one namespace configured, test namespace, which says replication factor is two. Of course, not a typical for single node. So, the memory size is like 54 gig configured. Default detail is expiry for all the records, which can be all written from the clients. So, the default is 30 days configured here, which simply says that. And also it says storage in this memory. That's all the configuration you need to get started. And this comes by default when you install the RS5. You don't even need to write this file. Okay. So, you just do sudo itc init.d RS5 start. Okay. So, just sudo itc init.d RS5 start. It should say okay. So, how do you check from terminal that your server is really up and running? So, you can do asinfo minus the build. It will tell you the current build version it is running. Is it taking time to spin up? The distance... So, it takes some time to start. Okay. Simply do asinfo minus the build. It should respond. That means your server is up. Okay. Just in a quick peek, what all stats can be seen. So, some people ask like, how do I know the health of the cluster is simply to raise minus these stats. It dumps like whole bunch of stats. You don't need to go through all of them, but just to know. Okay. So, now you have the public IP. So, what you have to do is... Sorry. Before that. We started the RS5 instance. Right. It is in the RS5 start. Now we should start the ANC instance. RS5 monitoring themselves. Okay. This is started. So, now you can go to your browser, give your IP, and go to port number 8081. Okay. 8081 is where your AMC is running. It will ask to give a seed IP of the cluster. Right now. Next time. Sorry. The last time. Just say, instead of... You need to RS5 start. AMC start. You need to RS5 start. 8081. Go to... In your browser, open the public IP. Call an 8081. It will ask a seed IP of the cluster. So, you can simply say, 127.0.0.1. You can say correct. Right. So, like all the stats that we showed, like is like presented nicely. It gives the different statistics like what is the cluster disk size configured. So, R node currently don't have disk size. It's not 0 bytes. RAM, 54 bytes. 54 GB is configured but 0 used. And then the number of nodes in the cluster totally expresses the bit number. Any alerts? Redirect reports. For the last 30 minutes. And we have the number of nodes. Currently it's single node. Then we have the name space configuration. And then XDR. Quote number 8081 is not there. What is XDR? XDR is a cross-status in the replication I talked about. You can say 127.0.0. Simply log. 80. Sorry. There is a URL in the collaboration. Do that. Okay. But 27.0.0.1. It's a local project. This is not the public aspect. So, when the browser asks for you, you simply give the private IP and click on it. You don't need to. That's just for your public IP. So, you can skip and just use the one in your browser. HTTP. Sorry. Okay. So, we will insert like one. Just a test, right? We will insert one record. So, we have a very basic Q2C called CLI. For basic things. You can say CLI minus OZ minus K minus K1 minus Bmin1 minus Bmin1 minus Bmin1 minus Bmin1 So, it inserted one record into the local node. This is just a test. So, you should see like one object in CLI. So, we will paste it in Colibri. This is just insert one record with key, mic, bin1, Bmin1. We will do more complex stuff. Okay. So, if you go back to your public, your ANC it will show that like there is one object inserted into the cluster. Okay. So, let's do more complex things. So, this is where we have a tool where you can load data which can generate some fake load like a different group or something like that. Okay. Different types of data. You can simulate your application profile. So, this insert one million records in this command. So, this insert one million records in this command. So, you can see here, right? I just, I will copy paste. You can see the TPS here. So, the TPS you are seeing is like about like 150,000 transistors. One million records are inserted. We didn't even time it. So, let's just time it again. Seven seconds each of them. Yes. So, this is insertion of one million records. Pure rights. It took about eight seconds. I will copy paste this. One million. I am sorry. Okay. So, this is using... Sir, what is the insert type in 8XL? So, this is C3 8XL. C3. C3 8XL. 8XL. 8XL. Okay. So, now we inserted all this one million records. We can, we can now try to read all of them. So, are you here entirely? So, W, initially I said I. That means just insert. So, now read update with a read, with a write ratio, read ratio 90. What is the size of each record? 50 characters. 50. 50 characters. This is a string of 50 bytes. 50 bytes. Yeah. 50 MP. This pure rights. So, we will see that. Okay. Okay. So, this command will keep continuously reading the data. I will just copy it. Somebody is changing. Don't change in the color. Okay. So, this will generate a continuous load of reads and writes. And it shows like what is the TPS that you are getting. So, remember that this is not the saturation of the server. It is the saturation of the client. Okay. So, don't, I said like 900,000 transactions per second, but this is generated by single client. If I have more clients, more instance of the clients, or more machines generating, the client can observe all of that. And like when we found clusters of four nodes each. So, one guy can run one person. We can run the client from all the four instances and we will see that. So, this is a silicon egg. I have not, this is the 1,065 repeated. Sorry? It seems to be 1,065 repeated. Did it stop at the load? Yeah, the job might have extra improvements. No, no, he said he got only 65 objects total. How many are there? And 60. Oh, okay. So, multiple. We ran with 64 threads parallelism. So, I think like one thread parallelism. So, you can see the ANC here. So, the reads and writes, the percentage of reads you are seeing is about like 150,000 transactions, pure reads. And like about 17k writes. So, you can see it in your personal ANC. Why do you do something? What ANC can do? Okay. So, you can see the different stats here, right? So, you can see the replicated objects like little more than a million. And then, total number of client connections that are currently active. So, the client, the single, because we are doing with 64 parallelism. So, we have about 64 threads parallely connecting to that node. And like one more, one or couple of connections which are discovering the cluster, any stage in the cluster and things like that. So, you may see this going up and down. Okay. So, you can see the last objects. What is the size of RAM occupied? So, you can think about 128 MP is occupied. Okay. Anybody has trouble reaching here? You can run your own load and see it for yourself. How much you can generate? Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So, in this workload, right? I just ran with strings but the tools is capable of generating many different types of data. Okay. You can see that it explains what does each parameter mean. So, it will give examples of, not examples, explanation of what all it means. Okay. You can take it back up if that's what you want to do. You want to do that. So, that's kind of feeding. So, if you do minus E, four, three, four. It does a lot of stuff. These are internal details which you generally need not. So, it says like what are all these partitions? What is the objects in each partition? So, somebody asked like how do you know that it's not this imbalance? This is your proof. So, if you see like everything is around like between 15K to 18K. That's because again like the number of data that we inserted is very less. So, if you have more data, the skew will become much, much lesser. Right? So, this is all the 4K partitions information. Each partitions information. How much data went into each partition? Okay. So, let's try to form cluster. So, pick any 4 people like 4 together. And I think partner with somebody who is running here. We are running there. Okay. So, let's form a line. So, this line cluster. Up to you. I think like you are just far apart. So, if you want to see that, you can see. I think like 4 people is good. Or like 4 or 3 like whoever is running who could log in there. What is the last one? Let it run. Let it run. Once we change the configuration we have to. Sorry? Yeah, you can stop the load. Yeah, you can stop the load. So, the way mesh works, right? Because multicast is like a gossip protocol. Everybody can talk to anybody. Multicast is slightly different. So, you have to say like one node in my cluster is where I will talk to and tell about myself. So, once every node goes and tells this node that this is my IP. That node again will share that information with other nodes. So, when I go and talk to this, let's say, mesh principle. I will give my IP to him. So, he will say, okay, I already know these 3 guys that I am aware of. So, it will give me the full list. So, I will go and directly talk to these nodes. Okay. So, what we have to do here in mesh configuration is to say that whom should I talk to to get the full list of the clusters. Okay. So, in your group of 3, 4, 5, whatever it is, pick one guy as your leader and use his IP. Okay. Private IP. Private IP. So, how do you, like, you can simply do this point face? Yeah. Oh, sorry. Yeah. Thank you. So, the IP will be, like, 1732.31.40.163, in my case. Why are you telling me? Okay. So, this will be your private IP. Don't use his IP. Yeah. So, don't use my IP. Okay. It will be, like, 100 node clusters. Can you tell me your IP? So, just a second. So, in the mesh address, the mesh port, right, it is written as, like, 10.10.10.10.. Just to fake something. Yeah. Okay. Why are you even using fake apps? We can do that when... But, you want to use Star Dion? Yeah. Just to save out object by using. So, you are having fun right, there is a match head plus written you know like it says 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot 10 dot So, I am picking him as the leader of my cluster, so which are 4 or 5, 3, 4, 5 from cluster you are forming. You have to pick that leader's IP address, put it in my cluster. Sorry, sorry, come run a bit, please. There is a question? Yeah. So like, who are the representative of your whole cluster? You should pick his private IP and just enter agonized mesh address in the cockpit file. Leader will not do anything. Even if he does, even if he doesn't, it's still fine. So even if he doesn't, it's fine. So you'll top the mix up. So once you, everybody modify it in the path files. Sorry? Yeah. The path. Sorry. The config file will be etc eraspyc eraspyc dot fun. Say it again. This is master's address. This is master's address, leader's master's address. Yeah. In case of master, it doesn't matter because you have to contact yourself. But out there, let's just see how it's going to come up. The main purpose is to find out how it's going to come up. The same config file. That's the main class. Yeah. Okay, so let's, so once the, one, sir. You can change it. Okay, so let's give a simple rule. Everybody change it to the leader's IP address. Okay? Yes. So once you do that, once you edit the config file. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. So once you edit the config file, you just have to restart your node. Eraspy, eraspy, eraspy, eraspy, restart. Okay? So I'm restarting my... You don't need to restart it. I don't need to restart it. Okay? So that's what I'm going to do. I restarted my node. Come on. Eraspy, can you restart? No. Eraspy, can you restart? No. Eraspy, can you restart? No. Come on. Okay? So here you can see like my nodes are increasing already in my NCA to three nodes. So I don't need to be out-of-sharting. Out-of-rebalancing also once you have clusters. So you can see the rebalancing happening here. So my three nodes... Sorry. Can I get your attention? You have a small thread where you can see this information. Okay? So I just added his IP as my leader. So you can see like I found a three node cluster. And you can see like the migrates going and incoming and outgoing. So this signifies that the data is getting rebalanced as we are speaking. Like you can see the object count that will keep changing. It will be refreshed every five seconds. And you see the replicated objects. It will again balance out. It doesn't matter. Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Eraspy, can you restart? Okay. So let's do an interesting experiment here. So while the rebalancing is happening, let's do reads and checks. Okay? So I... Why is the RAM is changing a lot? Because the whole rebalancing is happening, right? So it's available in RAM. So it's RAM or not? It is RAM. So when you are a single child, you see that only one child can read that. So now you have to publish all that data. So like in this country of... Actually this is the third time because you are reading all that. Where the data is getting... It should rebalance. Like we are seeing the rebalancing happening here. Yeah. I took down the node. Again by mistake I restarted my node. So that means it is down and now it's up. So it will show that if the node is down. Now it's green, it is up. Okay. Anyone who is still in a single node cluster, who still hasn't formed multi-node cluster? Okay. So... You see this process is very hard, right? So everybody started one instance and then you change this configuration, form, cluster, all this stuff. So I'm going to quickly take you through cloud formation that we have. So Amazon has this nice service for this cloud formation. Yeah. No, the service will be running. You just reconnect back to that. That doesn't work. Okay. Unless I'm a computer worker. I think the... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... So Amazon has this cloud formation where you can define your end-of-cluster up front and you don't need to define it so RSPy has a script where you can say like I want to do this. Sorry. Okay. Can you show me your screen? Okay. Can you show me your screen? You see the screen, showing me your screen. Okay. We have a problem. Same IP address. Maybe you long term the same machine. Oh, the Wi-Fi IP you are saying? No, this is IP. Listen to IP address. Listen to IP address. Okay. Okay. So how to do this cloud formation script? Like you just have to say like So you have to click a template file. You just have to download it out. Okay. This is the RSPy cloud formation script. Just click cloud formation script. So you can be the same. Sorry. Okay. Let's finish this one. So please. Okay people. Turn the microphone. It's already on. People are dominating me. Okay. So the cloud formation script, the second stage we have So basically it will ask just three questions. What instance type do you want to pick? And what is the key pair which is personal to you? I should say like number of instances I want in my cluster. I can say four and simply say next. So it will ask do you want to add tags and all. So it will just ask me to review. Okay. Okay. That's it. So you don't need to do any of these steps that we have done now. And like in bare metal machines if you have your own local land running it will automatically form a cluster using multi-cast IP. You don't even need to edit. It has special configurations for different nodes. So if you are deploying on Amazon you should be using the cloud formation script to make it easy. If you have bare metal machines you shouldn't be using hash. Okay. So this will go on. So I will not keep track of it. So we will quickly go into coding. How to write an application using ASPy. Sorry Node.js. So I am picking Node.js as an example. So we have uploaded our Node.js client in NPM repository. So if you have to start using Node.js all you have to do is run one command. So you just have to say NPM install ASPy. Okay. What is alert from.org? Any time a new node joins anything goes down, anything bad things which are happening in the cluster it will show alerts. There are some yellow events which need to have immediate attention. I think because of all this activity, nodes going in and out, you should be having that problem I guess. It should restore again like Yeah. You can take this. Network is stuck on that. This is ASPy. I think the network is becoming bad even I am not able to Yeah because they are. Okay so people who are not using their AMC maybe they should shut it down because what will happen is that all of individuals AMC they will keep pulling the AC too. So it's basically just your normal internet traffic. So even if you are not weaving it it will continuously keep getting traffic. So let's say in a team just keep on AMC running and others and just close that tab. I think like we are done with the AMC part so maybe everybody can close their AMC browser. It will generate a lot of traffic but like with 100 people it generates a lot of traffic. Okay. So please close this AMC console that is open. I think it is growing up I think. Let everybody close the browsers. I think hopefully the internet will become better. So I am also closing my browser. So this is a cloud formation that is completed. So I can simply say delete stack just dismantle my browser. Okay. Okay. Okay. I think it is acting up. We already downloaded Node on this box. Your ACP box. So there is a Node modules directly. So you already see a respect there. So what I can start doing is I can write my Node.js application. Okay. Okay. So she is the one who wrote the entire Node.js client. So I am just acting that I know it. Okay. So all I need to do is before let me do this. Okay. So maybe we will do it simple because it is taking time to walk through. So I have the entire very basic thing already written here. I will walk through the code. Yeah. So I will just walk you through this thing. So all you have to do is you initially say like require aero spike because you already have it. Okay. So you have to tell like what are the parameters the seed IP. So you can see that in the config. So config has host field which has an array of IP addresses. You can supply an array of IP addresses. One is enough. But that mission should be up and running. So what people do is like they may keep like four or five IPs. So even if one instance is not running it will connect to the other IPs and discover the current cluster. So you see the host and policies like what should be the timeout when it is attempting. So if you are doing a get or a put so how much time the client should wait. So if you say zero it will wait indefinitely. But here I am just giving a timeout of zero. Okay. So once you do this you have to say like aero spike dot client dot connect and say like what you want to do on connect. Okay. So here you have a function what is the behavior once this job is done. So connect job is done. So I am not doing anything here. Whatever is coming out of error and client I am just tapping to my console. Okay. So now we just talk what is the data model. So it is a key with a set of bins. So you have to define your key. Yes. This is a JSON structure or JavaScript object. So it needs to have three fields namespace set and key. So what is the namespace test set is my set and like the key I want to put is my key. Okay. So this is my key and like my record will be two bins in this case two bins in bin if you simply say one it will automatically detect that it is an integer and it will insert as an integer. So if you put this in quotes it will become a string. If you given as an array it will become a list if you put it as a map it will become a map. Okay. It will be automatically detected. So you don't need to say this is string, this is integer and things like that. And like every record will also have some metadata associated with it. This is optional but you can set a TTL for the record. So if I want to expire in like a day I can say like for an app so I can say 3600. And generation again these are optional things. When I write I want to write with generation 1. Okay. You don't need to say that like I was saying these are optional parameters. If you don't say TTL here it will pick the namespace configuration. We saw right default TTL that it is it will pick that. If I want to override with everybody I can do that. And this is at the key level. Sorry. Key level. Record level. Record level. So all I do is like AS object.put. I am just facepieing my key here. My record. The metadata. And like what is the action that should be taken as a return for that operation. When the operation returns. So here I am not again doing anything. So I am just dumping everything to the console. Okay. So I hard coded IPS here. You should like know what called box. So I just need to do simple put. Sorry. You are doing it from your snack. Yeah. So this should be running. So there are like different callbacks right. Connect also you have a callback. What is action that should be taken. And after put also you have a callback. Yes I understand that. So would you be able to this is my favorite callback. The AS object that might be called before the callback. Yeah. So you have. That's right. So I will put a sweep. Simply. What is that? You don't have to say that time work as they call it. You can have some things. This is not C. Because. It's called C. Probably I can run the get. Let me see if I get it at least. This is also so if I if I see my example is also like simple. So again I give the same key and simply say get. I don't need to specify my data and all here. The same standard steps of connecting and I'm defining my key and simply say we get. Okay. So. If we need to go to a little bit of this example again written by battery. So there's a URL shortener example running here. So it has these different steps where there will be a HTTP server listening so you can say like this is my long URL shortenate for me. It will store it in aero spike and it has different counters so that there's no hotspot again like we have thousand counters running. So every URL that comes like again gets it will pick one of the counter it will generate the next ID for that and it will give it back to you. So if you click the URL the same node server will again redirect automatically to the long URL. So it's like saying the bitly thing like standard stuff that you have. I hope it will connect now. If I simply say it is asking me like a URL. So let's say I click this whole tool search string it will say generate short URL. I think it's not connecting to the backend. I have got it so it generated this URL. Again this is stored in aero spike. So now if I just copy paste this URL in a different window the request will hit node.js it will go to the counter pick the long URL which is stored as a key. It will be stored as a long URL. The short URL will be this key that you are seeing here. So it will face that automatically redirect the request and you see the same Google search that you are seeing. So now that I know the problem the hard code you are at this. So it says aero spike okay. And if it fails it gives reasons why it failed or where it failed in a code. So it will tell what is function file line and stuff like that. So it also just for printing sake it printed that stuff. This is the callback dump when it was connecting. This is for the put. So if I simply do a get it will give me back my key. So we got back the integer bin and string bin here. So this is like the return status of the call. Okay. So okay you are also any questions on the clients. Like how to connect and things like that. So I think like if you pick any of our clients you will see the same structure. You have a connection stage. Use that object to get put. You can define your policies. I am not going into all the details. But the structure will be the same across all our clients. You might be trying to leave with the record. So was it a radix like new space? Typically with ad business we are not interested in this record after let's say 30 days. That's like 2 old for them. So different people have different use cases and some people want it to live forever. In which case you can simply say TTL equal to 0. Yeah we can store. We are just giving an option. So when you said TTL 30 what happens is system will automatically keep cleaning up this data. So you don't need to do that yourself if you don't want that data. So system will take care of that. Data is your cookies. Session keeps changing every time you log in. There is no point in storing that. Cookie data yes, but just your cookie value no. So any questions on the client side? Client APIs? No. Why someone is good to know? Yeah. Okay. So quickly I will point you to that. So like we do a get put. We have an operator. So if you see here like you can say like van pops like off.append, off.increment, off.read So you can do that. And this is not like a read update. It's just one or how many? Yeah it is automated. So operation is like the beauty of operation is the whole set of operations that you do will be under one log. So if you want to update and read it back again you can do that. But you shouldn't item two writes in the same operation. That's only restriction. On the same bin. So two different bin. Okay. So I think then we conclude the voting part. So we will talk about how to clone in general any system on AWS. Should we try? Yes, easy to have used. Do try. It does 1 million TPS, right? We have been talking about bare metals. That's where we do. Cloud. So how many nodes do you think it will take on a cloud on EC2 provider to do 1 million TPS? Three nodes? Okay, that's what he said. So one of the things that we do is we always underestimate ourselves when we are telling it to public. So that you are saying three nodes in reality I can show it to you on one node. So the reason for that is you go and say hey, I mean yeah, he said three nodes I will definitely do that. So yeah, we can do that on one node itself. But the main thing it's not just about aero spike. It's basically what we are going to talk about right now is AWS. It's not just aero spike which can do well on EC2 or AWS. Normally we say virtualization is not a place where you want to do high performance things. It's good to maybe run your Apache. It's good to run your WordPress. But if you really want something which is really, really, really high performance application. I mean I have always been a bare metal guy. I mean even at work people talk about virtualization and I'm like man that's not going to work. But so the whole the reason this entire conversation, this entire exercise came up was like we were close source earlier and we always supported virtualization techniques but it we never guaranteed performance on those. What we said that yes it will work but yeah we won't guarantee 98.5% of some millisecond latencies. Because yeah I mean Amazon doesn't provide us guarantee how can we do. So one of the things was that we did not know how we will perform an aero spike on AWS. So what we did was before anyone else goes once we became open source and people will try it out. It was like I time we went ahead and tried it out. So I mean earlier I just used to use AWS spin up instance SSH do this do blah blah blah, shut it down done. Never tried it from performance point of view. So once we started first thing was okay spin up an instance SSH install and just an aero spike. The first number that we got was 85k TPS. Now that that could be very high when it comes to you know rest of the world but for us 85k TPS is like on my Mac I get some 120k TPS man. So 85k TPS is nothing. So it was like okay what is the bottleneck and again because it was benchmark numbers we started on C3 8x. So that was like yeah that was a good machine. There was no bottleneck on it. We looked into it and what we found was that what was blocking was the network. So when I started I was using something called the PV image the paravirtualized image that is what Amazon was offering you know so far by default. Spin up C3 8x PV image and all it gave us was 85k TPS we used iPerf also to figure out what was it again same 85k TPS and about 1.86 whereas C3 8x is supposed to give us 10 gbps. So it was simply not working. A quick search on the net and everyone else was getting some 100k 120k TPS on Amazon that was simply not going to work for us. So then we looked around a bit more and we figured out that Amazon also has improved lately sometime last year they came up with something called enhanced networking and one of the requirements for enhanced networking was HVM. That's hardware, virtualized, something you can read or comment. Yeah, hardware assisted virtualization. So the thing how it works is basically your virtualized machine it has better slash direct access to the underlying hardware. For example let's say on these machines on the higher end machines the network cards that Amazon uses it actually has queues of the order of basically around 40 queues per card. I mean you are never going to get access to that that many queues on any of the EC2 instances. So but because it uses HVM, I mean Amazon still doesn't tell you but we kind of figured it out with various stuff. So let's quickly try it out. So I'm logging into some machine. Network died. So the thing that I'm talking about is AMC is one of the newer tools that you know you can use but okay this is a terminal way of figuring out how much how many we are doing. Basically what I'm going to do right now is run the same things that we did you know inserts or read and see what kind of numbers we get. I'm doing reads at about 215, 220, 250k. If we go to AMC again it will show similar numbers. This we show in 10 second time slices so that's why the first one came out at 199 the second will come on. But okay the main thing that we are talking about is in terms of TPS. So yeah by default HVM I mean you don't do anything each NIC will give you about 250k TPS. We needed 1 million TPS at least on the NIC. So what do we do about it? One way of achieving it of rather increasing your instance performance especially on a lesser instances basically up to like say anything .4XL is used something called RPS that is received packet steering. So the way it works is basically one of the problems with these instances is the resolution won't allow me to put it to 1. So what happens out here is basically the network is all the packets by default it goes only to the first code. So if you see it in top and you do top 1 it will show you all the 32 cores C3, 8XL has 32 cores by default all the packets will go only to the first and second cores and your rest of machine will just be lying around idle. So how to improve that? Let me quickly disconnect because I can't see because of the low resolution I'll just get my notes. Sorry about that. So this basically is a system which has RPS enabled. How do we know that? So this is what the default configuration for RPS underscore CPUs is. What it means is no matter like from where, from on which queue you are getting it, send it over to the 0th processor, 0th code. So it will only go to the single code. Now what do we want to do? We want it to spread it over to all the cores, all the processors that we have available. So basically it's same. Let's say if you want to spread it over to say the first 4 cores, so 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4 again in hex becomes F. So that's what we have done out here. So a value of F means that yeah, send it out to the first 4 cores. So any packet you send it will be distributed among the first 4 cores of the system. Again, top is kind of stuck because of the low resolution. Yeah, so terminal is not big enough. Okay. So you see this one, right? The network load, this particular thing, soft interrupts, they have been distributed among over 4 cores right now. So this has happened after we switched the value over to F. If you switch it back to 0, which is the default. So now you see that it's earlier it was on 4 cores. Now it has come down to 2 cores. So this is the default configuration. So basically this is the place where your instance will get bottlenecked. Out here we are using C3 8x large which has 2 queues per neck. On lower instances I guess even on 4xl, 2xl for sure has a single queue. I think even 4xl have single queue. So max that you can do out there is F. What we have figured out like even on 8xl, the best performance comes out when you are using F. Like if you increase the number of processors, even though RPS by definition is not supposed to increase the hardware interrupts on a bare metal machine but on this particular like this virtualization layer what we see is that there is a very, very high increase in hardware interruptions. So basically you are not able to maximize your RPS. So the limit that we found out here is like without RPS we can get about 250k TPS on a single neck. With RPS it will go about 750-800k TPS and if you increase it further more then it will just be stuck. I mean it will come down because again hardware interrupts have increased. So it will come down but the max that you can get with RPS on this thing is 800k TPS. So how do we achieve 1 million TPS? How do we do that? Like our bottleneck is each neck is tied to a core and it goes to that single core. What is the easy way out? Increase the number of necks because you can't increase number of queues on a virtualized layer. What you can do is increase the number of necks. So AWS has something called ENIs Elastic Network Interfaces The good thing about ENIs is unlike most of the AWS stuff this is free. You don't pay anything for it. I mean if you use elastic IPs you don't pay for it as long as you are using it but if you don't use it you pay for it. That's not the case with ENIs. No matter whether you just create them and keep them around or you use them there's no charge for using ENIs. But the only thing is there is again limits on how many ENIs you can attach or how many interfaces you can attach to each instance. For 8XLs you can attach about 8, for 4XL you can attach 4, for 2XL 3 so yeah it's documented. What is the limit? On 8XL we when we are trying to attach all the 8 necks but what we figured out that we needed only 4 more necks. Each nick was giving us about 250K TPS we attached them, we attached 4 and yeah we could get 1 million TPS. So I was initially planning to give a demo but what happened is that I ended up creating 107 instances for us in a single zone How could I do that? Amazon itself has a limitation of 20 on-demand of 5 spot instances so thankfully we ended up calling Amazon they increased the limit but the side effect is I don't have any network ENIs left in that region so I cannot attach any ENIs right now I do have another one but yeah we are running short of time as well so the easy way out to do is all of you have the C3 ATXLs for the time being or even if you don't have it, you can do it on your own 1 million TPS for an hour if you want to cost you 1.68 dollars that's the max for on-demand prices go for on spot prices that is for a C3 ATXL you will pay about 0.25 to 0.26 dollars that is about 15 rupees per hour so that's what you will pay for 1 million TPS that's for a server for a client you will need to spin up let's say maybe more clients you can use smaller instances, you can just use R3.2XLs so that's enough to push thing so the basic thing is for any instance types where you are facing this packets restriction use RPS if you are using PV for your existing stuff move over to HVM as soon as possible move over to enhance networking as soon as possible Amazon itself is pushing towards HVM so now if you go up towards EC2 console launch instance earlier it used to be top layers of PV and then you would have to search for HVM images now starting 1st April 1st of July I guess like whenever they launch the T2 micros and all they have reverted it so PV instances are completely gone from the default page now we have to search for the PV images HVM images are what are there by default one caveat about enhanced networking it's not available on all the existing or older generations one, it is available on the latest R3, C3s and I2s I3s these are the only types where enhanced networking is available M3s they have HVM instance but they do not support enhanced networking yet but as Amazon is gradually moving towards HVM do expect that support to come but you should be using either RC or I2 make use of enhanced networking another thing quickly about enhanced networking and VPC there is something called basement groups when you use let me quickly talk about what are the requirements for enhanced networking you should be using HVM that's the top most requirement another requirement so the requirement for HVM is you should be using VPC you can only launch HVM instance only in VPC you cannot launch it in EC2 classic so starting 1st of January 2014 like if you created your account after 1st Jan 2014 your account will only have VPC option you will not have the EC2 classic option earlier there used to be EC2 classic option so older accounts will still have that option you can go into VPC and then create so VPC and HVM is the prerequisite for enhanced networking another thing which is there but not widely talked about it is documented but not many people know about it or use it is something called the placement groups so what does placement group mean your instances will be clubbed together it's fine what does it mean to me why do I care why do you care is because in Amazon even though it doesn't tell you explicitly it is documented in their placement groups what happens in a placement group is you are placed in a specific 10G network so even though you might still be on an R32XL or R34XL what you will get is a 10G network you won't get the entire bandwidth but what will happen is your quality of your network will improve so that's what happened with us initially we were using R32XL for our benchmarks and we were getting about 1.86Gbps and we were like wow we came back to it and we didn't use placement group and we came out to 1Gbps and we were like what happened so that's when we figured out use placement groups always again like in case of Amazon it's not guaranteed that you will always get good performance ok I am going to take another 5 minutes less than 5 minutes to wrap up I am being hinted so yeah HVM enhanced networking placement groups I guess yeah that's pretty much it so do you guys have any performance questions about EC2 what all you are going to do do you have any problems about it I mean yeah or any other questions what we have talked about so far yes but right now it's only in a single instance I will distribute it across the instance so this particular instance is was in east just search for aerospike so you will find couple of AMIs this one is called aerospike fifth elephant workshop I mean this I will distribute it across regions I will do it later so the way you should actually be doing it is you should go to AWS marketplace because that is the place this one was created just for the purpose of workshop so we put the latest stuff out there this will definitely not be updated AWS marketplace is the place where we keep updating all the time and again aerospike that is the free edition you don't pay for aerospike only thing you pay for is the instance charges so you should be using AWS marketplace do you use any type of storage again we support but we are not benchmarked it here so far what we have benchmarked is the in memory thing but we are working upon it other cloud providers we are in the process right now expect a block soon enough about performance on EC2 right now we are in the process of comparing it with Google compute engine that's the next cloud provider other cloud providers we have some comparisons with the bare metal providers as well so yeah there are a couple of comparisons out there okay so I guess I am being told very gently to be to get out of the room but yes we are available outside I mean you have any questions feel free to reach out or you can mail me unsuredaerospike.com I will be there tomorrow so feel free to reach out to us over there
