Greetings and welcome to the Introduction to Astronomy. In this week's Astronomy of Other Cultures, we are going to look at Chinese astronomy and specifically look at the constellations of the ancient Chinese. So let's take a look at these, and what we see is that those Chinese constellations were more numerous than those in Western society, and they were also far smaller consisting of fewer stars. So here we see a few of those, in fact the regions around the North Pole, which was very prominent, the northern polar constellations, those that remained up above the horizon at all times were very important in Chinese culture. Now there were a total of 283 groupings, so as comparison as to what we see here, 283. Now just for comparison, our current constellations that we use in astronomy today are a total of 88, and that is what has been defined by the international astronomical union. Now the Chinese divided these into groups, and in fact there were five groups, and four of those here, the four that were done by the early Chinese, were the Azure Dragon in the East, the Black Tortoise in the North, the White Tiger in the West, and the Vermilion Bird in the South. Now that makes four groupings, the fifth group was the Southern stars, those that would not be visible from China. So once traveled beyond and new stars became visible, then additional stars would have been added in, but those are the ones that were not prominent and could not be seen from China. Now these 28 mansions were then divided into seven groupings, so each of these along one of the constellations, and you can see in the image here, let's take a look at this next one as an older version of this, now we can see how there are seven groupings in each, so there were seven in one direction, seven here, seven here, and seven here making those 28 groupings, each associated with one of these four creatures. Now there were also different enclosures, so in the Northern sky there were three enclosures, the northernmost would be the purple forbidden enclosure, which concluded those very important circumpolar stars, and those were then associated with the emperor and the people and things close to the emperor, so other members of the royal family and high advisors and aides would have been associated with those stars in that purple forbidden enclosure, so again those were the very important stars in Chinese culture. Why? Because they were the ones that always stayed up above the horizon. Now we see how that's different in Western culture, when we look at Western culture in the constellations, our prominent constellations are those along the ecliptic or the path of the sun, so those at the sun, moon, and planets pass through over the course of the year, and we're seeing that very different in Chinese culture where the most important stars were those ones closest to the pole. So let's go ahead and finish up with our summary, and what we've looked at is, first of all, the constellations of China were smaller and more numerous than the traditional Western constellations. The sky was divided into 28 mansions around the ecliptic and the three enclosures of the northern sky, including the forbidden enclosure right along the area of those circumpolar stars. Those southern stars, again those that are not visible from China, were added in later as a fifth group. So that concludes this lecture on the Chinese constellations. We'll be back again next week for another Astronomy of Other Cultures, so until then, have a great day everyone, and I will see you in class.

Hello everyone, this is Paul Lucas inviting you to stay tuned for the next half hour for one of radio's outstanding dramatic productions Radio's outstanding dramatic half-hour starring Paul Lucas and presented transcribe coast-to-coast in cooperation with this station by your army and your Air Force Radio City, New York. Here is your star on proudly. We hail the distinguished Broadway stage screen and radio star Paul Lucas Ladies and gentlemen, our play is entitled Prelude for Eva The scene Europe the time today the story a tale of international intrigue and danger Our first act curtain will rise in just a moment after the short but very important message You young men who graduated from high school this year There's a chance for you to get ahead fast in the expanding United States Army Visit your United States Army and United States Air Force recruiting station today and learn all the details Do it now and now with your star Paul Lucas in the role of Stefan Donner To all outward appearances one of the world's most successful concert pianists known only to a few was one of the free world's most successful counter espionage agents your army and your Air Force present the proudly we hail production of Prelude for Eva They said of him that his only love was music He cared not one whit for country for political ideals for mankind He was quoted as remarking. It made no difference who heard him player who published his music In fact, he'd play for the devil himself if the devil paid the price of admission a Cold haughty arrogant figure of a man who carried himself like a king and looked up to no one Whenever people heard Stefan Donner play they forgot what they knew and disliked about him They became lost in the beauty of his music and so almost forgave his attitude in a world where attitude had become the key note And always those who heard him play asked themselves How could such an unfeeling man as Stefan Donner touch the heart of mankind with his music when his fellow man Seemed to mean nothing to him. What the devil is this? Will you please stop that gargling ring? I told you I didn't want to be disturbed. I beg pardon sir, but the police are here. They'd like to have a word with you the police idiots What do they want with me? Tell them to go away. I think it might be best to have a word with them, sir only take a moment All right. All right show the gentleman in our papers all in order everything's in order, sir Well, then let's get it over with Please step in here Well gentlemen, I must say you are prompt I was in Prague over two hours before your compatriots They have paid me a call here. It's just one hour You flatter us here don't we pride ourselves on efficiency allow me to introduce myself I'm Inspector Tinko. This is major clouds. We are sorry to intrude and we won't take much of your time Charmed won't you sit down? Bring get the paper. No, no, that wouldn't be necessary. That's all been checked. I see well Then what is it? Tickets No, I'm able to procure those also even though. I think your music sometimes tends to be the decadent oh So you are a music critic as well as a policeman Well, I can hardly spare you the time to discuss music right now You're in a very bad humor there don't that is correct I have a concert to give tonight. I have much practicing to do and my time is being wasted Would you tell me please why it is never a good idea to be in bad humor here? This is a happy place. We want people to laugh and be gay When they're not they make us unhappy and when we're unhappy it will do major The major doesn't understand artistic temperament as I do her daughter So you must forgive now would you mind getting to the point, please? You are any cancer too. Is that correct? I am certainly not out hunting unicorns inspector I notice you are a comedian as well as a musician According to your itinerary you were not due to play here until next week Originally, you plan to be in Dresden at this date We are of course honored that you will play here sooner than expected But we are also curious as to the reason for your sudden change in plans well, I Will tell you inspector. I am not really a musician at all I am a secret agent who was sent here to steal your brain Because the people I work for are curious to know how anything so small could fit into anything so large They think they may be able to make a bomb out of it. Is there any need to be insulting her donor? I've asked you a civil question All I wish in return is a civil answer and if you can't give us one perhaps we can teach you a new tune to play All right, let us be civil but let us be quick You want to know why I came here instead of Dresden as previously arranged if you will take the time to study a map You will see that Dresden is much closer to the Swiss border than your fair metropolis And as I plan to do some skiing in Switzerland as soon as this tour is finished I had my itinerary changed so that Dresden would be my last stop before I take a much needed Vacation where I won't have to perform before clowns and answer the stupid questions of jackasses Now does that answer your question for the time being good? Then my men will show you to the door. It's been a pleasure See here don't I will do major Good afternoon head on Until we meet again I don't understand why you put up with it if I'd have been in charge You've been in charge what he said might have been through what do you mean about jackasses? You'll never be a success in this business Until you learn major that you don't land the fish with the club you play him gently and carefully You think he's the man. I think it's possible because I think anything is possible But it wouldn't belong one way or the other before I'll know you took care of the other business He'll be followed from the time he steps out of his hotel room till the time he comes back good What a fellow he is What a lovely fellow Find any ring the two in there so one in the bedroom There may be others. I don't think so. I was very thorough. Well, I'm sure you were but while we are here You should want to tell me anything important With best do our talking in these sacred confines shall I run the tub just to make sure now? It won't be necessary. Did you leave the microphones just as they were exactly sir? Or they aren't always sir possibly they are suspicious But then they are always that It's up to get very touchy before we are done ring. Oh, it's been touchy before but then we've always managed that Man Simcoe or Timcoe is nobody's fool But then Neither are you sir A ring if your confidence could do this job. We have nothing to worry about at all It's really let me in quick No, they are all right. All right, but out the lights quick. There's much time. I'll get this one Well, you've been the last two weeks you you just suddenly disappeared. What happened? No time for that now if you've got to help me. I'm not who or what I seem to be I've got some information that has to be passed on. That's very important information and the secret police are hot on my heels Really, what are you doing to interrupt? I hate to bring you into this. It means you risk your life That's for something Something we both believe in what what must I do? You've got to go to Stefan Donner's concert tonight Stefan Donner you mean the greatest yes, you take this ticket you go to the concert And it's over you take your program to be autographed and he's autographing it you say to him I thought you played the Beethoven concerto magnificently, please. This is just a little confusing I'm sorry ever. There isn't time to go into detail. I'll have something that donna has to cut to get that's why he's here The concert is incidental. You mean Stefan Donner is one of the best Never have guessed it. Let's hope that nobody else does now well I try and lead the hounds away from the sin. This is what you Big house ring it feels a capacity, sir Are our friends present in a box with some others like them? Let's hope they enjoy my playing Even they should enjoy that sir Oh, how many will be at the party afterwards? Oh about 250 that should be enough This dressing room reminds me of the one in Munich ring so cluttered up with microphones. It resembles a large ear I trust Inspector Timco will be enlightened by our conversation. I trust so sir Suppose I've kept them waiting long enough the orchestras beginning to look slightly itchy Stand here in the wings ring. Yes, and it's over be ready for most anything I don't think really would be full enough to come here, but then Willie is mad as a header not that mad sir Well rank we who are about to die Salute I'll be watching I thought you played the Beethoven concerto magnificent and how else would you expect me to play it madam? I just wanted to Does it do to you to have my name on your program? Didn't arrive sir not Willie is and a lady friend. I don't like it It could be a trap Which one was she sir the pretty one in black? Her eyes looked innocent, but then so have others but If they caught Willie sir, could they make him talk? They can make anyone talk ring anyone But even if Willie talk he tell them something that wasn't quite right. So you know yes He would and that's what I'll find out at the party, but I still don't like a drink It was planned too quickly To a man like Timco there must be something obvious about the whole thing It's almost obvious if you look at it in the right light this man Willie He steals the papers he leads a Samaritan chase and finally we pin him down here It's too dangerous for him to try and run further. So he goes to earth now It's up to someone to come to him and relieve him of his burden But that could be any one of a thousand people, but it isn't it's only one But which one is too tricky for the usual Asian because we're watching and Willie might not trust him anyway Might think he was one of our men So it's got to be someone who is above suspicion above all suspicion Who but our friend Steven donor, but he's not the only man in the city who is traveling through with the correct papers It might be that business man from Paris or the one from Florence or that woman Oh, any of those people are easily watched anyone approaching them is also, you know that as well as I All right, then major use your brains Steven donor played before a tremendous audience tonight. He signed autographs Which is unusual for him and now he's agreed to attend this party which is even more unusual, but Bruner was not there We know but do we know if one of Willie's friends was nothing was exchanged during the autographic identification May have been what about donors background. There's nothing there. That's true, but I'm not interested in background right now I can't understand this sort of work Good of you to admitted major Well before the night's over perhaps I'll be able to prove my point to you Good, excuse me, sir. Well, what is it Willie Bruner tried to swim the arms are the guards think they got him think oh They know he disappeared under the ice is impossible to recover his body impossible nothing If his body's in that river, I want it and I don't care how long it takes Do you understand? Yes, sir. Well, that's half the battle if it is We still have another half to finish Lucas starring in the role of Stefan Donner in the proudly we hail production of prelude for Eva will return in just a moment for the second act You young men who just graduated from high school listen to this The united states army needs intelligent young men to handle the thousands of important jobs opening up in your growing army If you can qualify and come within the quota You'll be sent to one of the army's many technical training schools to study such interesting subjects as radio Radar meteorology mechanics or electronics The army teaches you the know how it takes to get ahead faster And what's more when you're in the army you'll wear the uniform. That's the mark of a man the world over So men don't worry about your future now that you finished high school You'll find the answer to that important question at the nearest united states army and united states air force recruiting station You are listening to proudly we hail and now with your star paul lucas in the role of Stefan Donner We present the second act of prelude for Eva You start with me Madam i saw you standing here alone and i thought to myself the party is no place for anyone to be alone Especially someone as pretty as yourself So i brought you this glass of champagne Thank you. It is paul roger 37 very good for you I have a friend named willie who thinks paul roger 37 is the best of all He would like you to ship some to his employer mr. West I don't blame him Where is willy? I don't know. He came to my apartment. I haven't I live Smile And mix with the crowd try and act like you belong here. You stand out like a sore thumb Oh, it's been a pleasure madam. Please excuse me. I seem to see a friend across the room El inspector you said something about proving a point The party isn't over yet major no and if it goes on much longer He'll advance with every woman here and talk to every man some of them twice Which is not in character. I'm not in character. So what are you going to do about it? Arrest him because he's not in character There He's asked that young woman in the black gown to dance Shall I seize them inspector and 50 other women besides they're still major Go have another glass of champagne Try and look useful even if you are Two o'clock go into the room behind us. It's one of those glassed-in gardens I know I was there earlier. No matter what happens after that stay there Stand by the last window on the left. It's something going to happen How charming Don't be frightened You have but will he gave you? Yes. Well be ready to give it to me. Thank you my dear Very great pleasure. Thank you Two o'clock another half hour and we can go home and forget this nonsense major you can Call it a diversion. Give me the papers All right. Now get out of here Go out into that crowd and have hysterics with the rest of them, but I'm no but You are a brave little girl and I'm sorry. There isn't time to thank you properly As soon as things start to quiet down leave When you get outside walk left to the end of the block get in the car that is standing there My men will take you home and see that you come to no harm God bless you. Goodbye. And should you see willy again? Giving my regard Stephen to you always Not be gone. No one is going to live here until we get to the bottom of this Where have you been on the moon? You heard on a where have you been? Where for you when the lights went out? Well, if you must know inspector, I was in the father room combing my head Beg your pardon sir. I didn't hear you come in Was the party a success sir? Well with the help of poor roger 37 i managed And how was your evening ring? Oh, I enjoyed myself drove around a bit mit a young girl Got her home quite safely ring And at your age Yes, sir I took the liberty of drawing a tub sir. Yes, so I see I suppose you close the door. I just as soon keep as much heat in as we can We don't have much time ring The hounds will be sniffing around in short order. I misjudged inco I've got to do some fast composing and in the tub bring me a pile of music and the pencil You stand outside if you hear anyone coming whistle a tune and whistle it loud Did I manage the light successfully sir? Beautifully was it difficult? Well piece of cake sir And uh What about the uh disturbance? Your noisy but harmless bomb did wonders for a potted palm where I mislaid it Now listen when they call tell them I'm taking a bath They will insist upon seeing me Keep them away as long as you can every second counts now Will the composition be difficult sir? What kind of composing do you think Beethoven or Brahms would have done At three o'clock in the morning while sitting in a cold tub waiting for the police to break down the door I'm sorry, sir, but the maestro does not wish to be disturbed He doesn't wish to be disturbed out of my way. You men take the room in there go over everything quickly now Where is her dana? He's taking a bath sir a bath Well, we'll go join the great maestro in his tub show us the way before I show you my boot You men take the bedroom. Oh, it's so much simpler in the infantry just a matter of pulling a trigger Sir, they're awesome Open this door. I'll shoot the lock off. Oh, who the devil is out there open up Well inspector and in need of a bath. I've just finished mine Measured I want this room taken apart tile by tile. Well, if you really wanted that much I'll ask the hotel to give it to you. I advise you here dana to keep your tongue button What is that in the pocket of your robe? Oh my hand. I believe inspector inspector. Look what we found If you are after music, I can give you a lot more of it And what may I ask what you're doing with all that in there? Oh now really inspector I was reading it the same way you read the book if you are able to read They happen to be the scores for my concert in Dresden on Wednesday Lorca you and your men go over this stuff. You know what to look for take your time Erdunner and I are going to have a long talk Well Nothing absolutely nothing your experts have been over the place from top to bottom at the music Lorca said it's all an order. This is the only piece he didn't recognize Prelude by Stefan Donner. An original composition, eh? Now I'm getting weary of all these idiotic nonsense. You must forgive us our little whims When did you write this? Prelude I wrote it last month and if you'd like a copy of it you may take it I am playing for the first time Wednesday. Now I've had enough of this And if you and your buffoons don't get out of here and let me get some sleep I promise you you will read about this. Oh Yes, oh It might also also interest you to know that your own general horse is making it a point to be on hand To hear me play in dressed when I tell him of this asinine treatment. I have received at your hands It's quite possible. You'll hear about it in a minute that general holds inspector for perhaps it It may be her donor that we have been a bit tasty It may well be but I will let the general be the judge of that I must say see you carried it off beautifully. The last trump took the game ring Another minute and he would have kept the prelude. Are you certainly composed it quickly? I was inspired inspired by a girl whose name I don't even know I um Believe she said it was uh, Eva Eva Prelude for Eva will call it Written on a theme by willy brunner Very good, sir When we reach Dresden, you'll have some copies printed Send one to our publisher mr. West just in case he doesn't pick it up on the short way I don't know how far the concert will be broadcast. It's a very ingenious idea, sir I'll never cease to wonder at Transmitting the written word into a musical code and The music sounds so um so authentic Rink you are you are wonderful. There's just one item I wanted about What did you do with the original papers the one she gave you? Oh come now ring The sound of your boys whistle. I did the only thing I could do they went uh done the train Hey Down the drain very good, sir Very good This will return in a moment with a word about next week's show Next time you see a soldier of your united states army take a good look at the uniform He wears that army uniform is the mark of a man The unmistakable sign that its wearer has come up to the mark It's always been so from the buff and blue of general washington's continental's to the uniform So proudly worn by the army combat soldiers of today The united states army insignia has been worn by many generations of men The men who faced with quiet courage the dark days of valley forge entranton Chateau tiari in the argon forest baton in the bulge The man who puts on the uniform of the united states army Joins the company of those stubborn americans who never admitted they were elect Go to your nearest united states army and united states air force recruiting station Have a talk with the recruiting sergeant and enlist in the united states army today This has been another program on proudly we hail presented transcribed in cooperation with this station By the united states army and the united states air force recruiting service Proudly we hail stars paul lucas Previewed for eva was written by the wit cop the music was composed and conducted by john guanieri This program was produced under the supervision of charles and rogers productions and was directed by charles wilks This is kenneth banghardt speaking and here again is your host and star paul lucas We cordially invite you to be with us again over this same station next week for proudly we hail Our story is entitled from west to east and back again We hope you'll join us then Until next week.

Snastra Well, come back to snastra plays Mega Man x2 here on my mega motorcycle Hover hover cycle. I guess it's technically called Blowing shit up jumping over this thing. Yeah, you have to dash jump on that jump over a dash jump on this But I'm not gonna make it technically. You're so what you got to do is What am I doing? Here we go press the wrong button Um, take the bicycle all the way through here Frickin motorcycle Jump that chasm there and somehow dash jump onto that platform there It's it's actually really tricky to do you have to hit like four jumps perfectly In order to get that heart container right up there And I'm not gonna bother doing it But what I am gonna do is going over go over here and Get out the old buzz saw and get my newest present from Santa Claus. Whoops. Let's get that kind of fast Main drive unit now. What would that pertain to? Oh? This is the dash mid-air dash my favorite Ability in this game. I love being able to do this And I like how if you have a weapon selected it'll automatically switch him back to To his original colors. Look at those styling disco boots. He's got on now pretty sweet Love that. I just love being able to do that Especially with the R button instead of the stupid a button so nice. I Don't know why maybe it's just me. It's just makes the game so much more fun anyway, we are already at Overdrive ostrich. This is not a very long level. What? Yeah, use this. Oh You know what it that's right. It automatically switches it off because it shows Mega Man destroying this giant missile Which is only the most dangerous thing you could possibly do What is he doctor's doctor strange love or doctor strange love to like ride the bomb Print in the movie that other guy did anyway Usually I Start the game with this level so I can get the Leg dash pretty quickly so I can Go at this level and then go to wire sponge and then a wheel gator and then come back here and get the leg upgrade But I decided not to do that for whatever reason this time. I don't know. I just wasn't thinking Wanted to do the traditional soup runs with wire sponge Starting first and this guy is actually Whatever who cares? Anyway, yeah, once once if you get this guy got this guy's weakness. He just goes into the constant loop of the same attack over and over If you if you avoid it or if you don't do that sometimes he'll vary his attacks charge at you He'll go in the background And try and jump on top of you that sort of thing and thus the end of Overdrive So we actually get a decent weapon from them and it is the if I remember correctly. It's the it's like a mix between the It's like a boomerang thingy Yeah, and it bounces off balls to sonic slicer. It's a not not a bad weapon. It's pretty good Ooh cutscene dramatic tension music Dr. Kane looks like a flint heart glum gold from DuckTales Took all of zero. I thought they already had zeroes parts Didn't they already have zeroes parts? Isn't that the whole point of having those those dudes? I've got to save him Goodbye. Well, good thing that part was there good enough lived without that Whoa, we have a music change and a map change now. We're up, but uh North pole apparently, but we're gonna run some errands first first thing we're gonna do I Think is a where is wheel gator? Why can't I find them? There he is We're gonna go to wheel gator and get the now that we have the leg upgrade. We can go get the I think the Arm cannon upgrade is over here. Anyway, let's talk more. You know two episodes ago. I was talking about cocaine last episode is marijuana I've also tried LSD and Yeah, I'm not very Not very fond of that stuff either Here's why you need the leg upgrade for this part I totally miss that You need to get on this ledge over here fall and then dash over there like that can't do that without the leg upgrade I Think there actually is a way to reach it by doing some kind of magic jump Or I don't know. I'm sure somebody out there can do it without the leg upgrade Yay in both arms at once I love this See yeah, if you start with overdrive ostrich Then go wire sponge and then go wheel gator you can get these two things right away, and it makes the game Really fun. I don't know why I didn't do that this time, but whatever and the computer Helpfully demonstrates the power of the double thing Pretty badass. Is there anything else in this stage? I can get I honestly don't know Anyway with the LSD I was really really young when I tried it I didn't even know I didn't even know what it was. I didn't know what I was getting myself into I think I was 14 And we were at Valley Fair, which is an amusement park in Minnesota. It's like six flags It's like six flags without being called six flags basically And when it was at night, I think it was like 730. It was in like September or something like that So the it was pretty dark decided to Drop acid and go on a roller coaster I remember just being really really really really scared in line. There's still a really long line I think it was the day the park closed actually close for the summer It's like after Labor Day or maybe it was Labor Day. I don't remember But oh, this is what I need. I knew I was going for something. Okay. Let's try and get This now that I have the weapon upgrade You can try and get this Because that guy freaks out down there. You got to be on the very edge Dippy Let's try and get it. I Completely fucked that up. That was terrible Whoops Anyway, yeah, we decided it would be oh I start right here sweet we decided it would be a bright idea to drop acid and go on a roller coaster at night and I don't like roller coasters at all Like at all. I've never like roller coasters. I don't know how I got convinced to do this, but um See if I can do this here Nope didn't get high enough um Yeah, I just remember the feeling of going down that first Thing the first dip and I remember like you know that feeling you get in your stomach When you go down like that that feeling like you know how it just kind of goes away after you oh I almost got it That feeling just kind of goes away after you get off the roller coaster walk around that feeling just didn't leave it just stayed with me and Should I go back and she keep trying to get that? I don't think so What else can I do a crystal snail's got a bunch of stuff. I'll just go do that or Magnus Centipede, I don't know anyway. Um what I uh, yeah, we decided to um Just walk around the park the rest of the night and I swear to God I thought I died Like I thought I was dead and like my soul was like trapped in my body Because I couldn't not feel that like falling feeling Like I thought I was I don't know what I was thinking, but I was so scared and so terrified So after that I never did LSD ever again The point of this let's play I should just call this let's play drugs are bad That you know what I don't if you want to do that stuff I don't really give a shit like if it works for you if you have pleasant Experiences with that stuff and by all means as long as you're not you know kicking your dog while you do it or beating beating somebody up or Doing bad shit like that. Oh That was or doing shit like that like dropping into pits where I thought that's where the first heart piece was I guess not Whoops, I should really concentrate on the game instead of stories, I guess But yeah, that was really really bad that was like I'm dead. I've died I think this is where I go. There we go. This is where I go. Now here you go to the very edge I didn't even get a chance. Oh Come on, I should be able to get this one At least this one's right at the beginning of the stage. I don't have far to go But yeah, you just do you get in the thing you do a jump and then it's almost like Mario and Yoshi You jump where you jump off Yoshi And float the extra different the extra distance in the Cape same thing Yeah, jump and jump and not even close All right, we're gonna call it an episode. Thanks for watching. Have a great rest of your day

Hi everybody it's Sam here thank you for watching my tutorial today I'm going to show you how to make this really pretty pop-up gatefold card. I made this during a Facebook live with my mum it was lots of fun and I know lots of you enjoyed watching that one and you've made this card already so let's get into the video and I'll show you how I made it. So for the main card I've got a piece here of 12 by 6 you want to score at 3, 6 and 9 ok and then I've got this piece here but I trimmed mine down. Now this is just shy of 7 inches so I mean 6 and 7 eighths will be fine. You then want to score at half an inch at both ends it's just easier that way and then if you just pull the card out slightly so it has got the same kind of gap here that it has here and just score at three and a half just so you've got it kind of roughly through the middle there fold and burnish just do this burnish these as well so you want to do a mountain valley the inner score line and then finish with a mountain but just get that all in place I just want to show you kind of your options so this now will sit in here but it won't be right on the score line so it means that you can fold because these score lines you actually need to burnish them in both directions but it means it can close up like so when the card's flat or as I showed you can fold it on the back as well okay but that's the shape you want to be working with and then this piece is going to go in there this was two and a half width I'm not sure if I mentioned that but I want to bring it down so it will just kind of tuck behind here now I had seen a few people that have shared theirs and they've actually kept it taller and then cut grass into that section which I think I might as well keep it and show you another option now this little picket fence here is from my garden delights twist and pop it is sold out unfortunately anybody that's got it is this long die here that I've used so just cut two of them but I think before I do that I'm just going to lay this down in between the kind of score lines for the tabs there and just put a little marker I'm going to come down just to in line with this kind of first strip there and then I'm going to just cut just roughly that piece away up to my pencil line there again I don't matter if they're not exact it's just a rough just means that that will hide and now what I can do is cut little strips of grass if I don't like it I can just trim it away I'm just going to use my snips and just cut very thin strips and I'll cut a few different lengths in a minute as well just to make it a little bit more authentic but the thinner you go you'll get that natural curve and it will really look like blades of grass so I'm just gonna whiz through this okay so that's now how it looks I really like it with the grass on the top there so next I want to decorate these panels first before I attach this so I'm going to do the stripes on each side and then I'm going to have I think I was going to have the pink this time on the inside and then I'm going to have the yellow on the back so I'll be in like that these papers are from the Lisa Horton magazine kit so you get stamps dies and embossing folder and then all the papers are inside I've used up all of them now apart from I think one sheet and it's the one here with the leaves on it but it's yeah it's done really well for some lovely spring Easter kind of makes so I'm going to stick all these down these measure two and three quarters by five and three quarters so again you'll want four six of them you might want seven and then keep one plain so you've got somewhere to write your message okay so that's everything stuck down next you need to cut yourself three strips they're all half an inch wide but this one is five inches and you want to score it half an inch and four and a half and then this one is four inches and you want to score it half an inch and three and a half and this one is two inches and you want to score it half an inch and one and a half next you want to pop a little curve in between the score lines okay these school lines we're going to add our glue to if I show on this bigger one it'd be much easier. So you can just fold them out like that but then you want to add a curve into that bit so it looks like that. You want to do that with all three of them. And these are our I guess bars that we're going to attach everything to. So now grab this piece here and you just want to position it. I'm going to go just below the grass to kind of in line with where I've cut here. It's entirely up to you as long as it's hidden behind this section here but I'm going to stick this one just so it's kind of as equal as you can across that middle score line to make sure it's flat as well. So you need to kind of flatten the arch at this point so just push it down in the middle and then but then when you open it can you see how it naturally bows out so you're just kind of helping it along. So then the next one pop your glue on the ends there and again lay it down right over the top of that one as equal as you can get it and then just stick those down and again you'll now have the two like that and then the last one everything flat. You should find that your end tabs will line up with the end of the one below. That makes sense the score line sorry will line up with the one underneath. Okay so now we've got our three bars. Next we can attach this inside so you're going to add your glue on the outside and it's going to go inside here so again I'm going to use my quick grab glue and again you just want to make sure that that middle score line lines up with the center of the card and then everything else will kind of fall into place so and bring that right down to the bottom and just hold that there for a second okay and now you can see how that looks once we've added everything inside you won't see hardly any of that it looks really cool. So I've already gone ahead and cut a load of strips so I've done a few different widths I've got quarter of an inch and half an inch the amount is entirely up to you it depends how many things you're putting inside the lengths of these I have got they're all going to be trimmed down but they are five inches okay so get yourself as many as you want you might want to use acetate as well on a lot of the pop-up boxes that I've done I've used acetate it makes everything look like it's floating but I've done the green so it looks like the stems of the flowers but you can see there you hardly see them so it's going to become very full so all of these flowers here are from the papercraft society kit and it was the Linda Parker one I've used the flowers a lot and it was you can see this die set here so you can see the ones that I've used and I also took the you know I took the dragonfly from my garden delight set along with the butterfly so you can see the dragonfly there and the butterfly the bunting was also from the magazine kit and these were from an old paper that I had but in here I've got the butterfly the dragonfly and I've used Colin the caterpillar there as well and then for the little hopping bunny this is an old crafty impressions from spring spring fund 2017 so I just heat embossed that and the leaves are from that kit as well the Linda Parker one the enamel dots these are from the magazine kit so I'm going to pop them in the centers of the flowers once I've stuck them down and then I've got my sentiment which I've already popped on some acetate and that's what's going to go on the very front and I'll show you that when we get to it but you'll see how that just pops up then from the grass so I'm going to get these all on their strips just with a little bit of glue and then I'll show you how I position a few of them and I'll get the rest stuck down okay so I'm going to bring this one in here because I am going to follow that one again in terms of the positioning because I've got the three larger kind of flowers at the back and then all the rest coming towards the front so I'm going to slide it in I'm not going to put the glue on yet I just slide it in so it's on the top of that biggest one and then just kind of hold it where you think you'll need it and just pinch your finger up to where you've got the overhang so I'm just going to pinch there and then I know I can snip that much away because that's where I pinched up to and then if you're using acetate then I would recommend using red tape to stick this on to this piece here but I'm now going to actually I'm going to go behind that one I know I said I put it on top but I want to stick it to that one so I'm going to go right behind kind of fill it in that space where it needs to be and then I'm just going to push that down so now just see a little bit of it sticking out there if I turn it that way there we go you can see it's stuck behind that bar there and then it will stand up you see how once it's all put you know popped into shape it kind of does hold itself up and then I'm going to get the next one so let's do so I've got the yellow yes I do the blue so again I'm going to go right behind sorry not on top like I said before and that one's going to feel kind of be in the same place we kind of keep it flat and then so again just pinching up to where the overhang is which is why I said you do end up trimming most of these down but by keeping it at the five inches just easy to when you're trimming and you're cutting them all just make sure you don't get any glue anywhere else apart from on the bars so now you can see those ones there and then I'm going to pop the yellow one in the middle and then I'm going to come forward into the next bar and like I said well between this bar and the middle bar I will stick all these flowers the front one is just for my sentiment but you could also add another bar in if you want there's no reason why you can't so yeah that's what you need to do so I'm going to go and get all of this stuck down that is most of the things stuck down I've popped the flat back flowers and I've added all the leaves there as well I think it looks really nice I've also added some bunting and the butterfly and the bunny oh and Colin Caterpillar as well Caterpillar and then I've just popped some red tape on the end of my acetate I'd already measured where I need it to go and I'm just popping it on the outside I'll just push that down in there and then let it kind of pop back out again but if you can just see it in there there we go it's just stuck behind it but that is everything and I'm just going to pop my dragonfly might have the dragonfly on here this time so I had the butterfly there before just popping down and it all folds up that way much better okay because I just brought in the sides of this piece so you don't have that bolt but if you don't want it that way you can have it that way so they take it out of the envelope or box envelope and I'll link that up here because these are obviously got a bit of dimension but either way because of the way we've folded it and how everything's stuck it naturally goes into that position I think it looks beautiful perfect for any occasion obviously this is Easter but just a nice spring birthday Christmas with lots of snowflakes all inside I think that would lovely or Ponsettia or Christmas flowers they would look really nice as well so that's my finished pop-up gatefold card I think it's turned out really well definitely be making this style again try some different sizes and some different themes thank you for all the ones you've been sharing already over on the group mixed up crafters on Facebook they are fantastic and it's the one I can't remember the couple of you I think done the grass along the top and I just thought yeah give it a go and I think it's turned out really well so thank you and that's what the group's all about we do inspire each other and it's just a lovely place so if you do want to share anything that you've made following my tutorials head over there and yeah it's just a nice little community there'll also be some other tutorials popping up now that you might want to watch next and if you've enjoyed today's tutorial and you're not subscribed please hit the subscribe button hit the notification bell and

ESOcast 84: The New E-ELT Design Unveiled | ELT Updates

In 2014, the tip of Cerro Armazones in the heart of Chile's Atacama Desert was removed in quite a dramatic fashion. The result was a flat plateau, representing the very first stage in ESO's most ambitious project yet, constructing the European Extremely Large Telescope, or EELT for short. Now ESO has awarded the biggest contract in ground-based astronomy to build the EELT Dome and Telescope structure, so it's a good time to take a look at what the EELT will be. This is the ESOcast, cutting-edge science and life behind the scenes at ESO, the European Southern Observatory. Not far from ESO's Paranal Observatory, Cerro Armazones will be home to the EELT, one of the next generation of enormous telescopes. A main mirror, 39 metres across, and a protective dome almost 80 metres high will make this one of the biggest astronomical projects ever undertaken, truly an extremely large telescope. The EELT is, like all big astronomical telescopes, a reflecting telescope. Mirrors are key to its operation, and there are five of them in total. By bouncing the light from one mirror to another, it's possible to make the telescope relatively compact. Without this series of mirrors to fold the light beam, the telescope would be even bigger. The mirrors can also be used to make adjustments that result in the best images possible. The main mirror is segmented and is made up of 798 individual elements, which together add up to a reflecting surface 39 metres across. The faint light from distant objects is reflected from the main mirror via the four other mirrors, eventually reaching the focus of the telescope, where sophisticated scientific instruments will be placed. The M4 mirror is particularly special. It's a very thin, flexible mirror that sits at the heart of the EELT's adaptive optics capability. Adaptive optics systems flex and bend the mirror by tiny amounts and with great precision to compensate for the blurring effect of the Earth's atmosphere. This will allow the EELT to produce images of celestial objects around 15 times sharper than the Hubble Space Telescope. The EELT will be equipped with a suite of world-class scientific instruments as befits the most powerful telescope in the world. Work is already underway to design these devices, which will help to exploit the enormous observational power of the telescope. But in the midst of all this magnificent engineering, let's not forget that this is all about the science. As the biggest and most sophisticated telescope ever built, the EELT will take us into a new era of observational astronomy. Its gigantic primary mirror will do two things that set the EELT apart from the current generation of large telescopes. First, it will collect about 15 times more light than any other optical telescope in operation today, enabling scientists to observe much fainter objects than they can now. And second, when coupled with the adaptive optics system, it will produce images that are much sharper and more detailed than currently available. This will enable astronomers to study planets around other stars in unprecedented detail. We will learn about how they form and the conditions on their surfaces. We may even find a planet similar to the Earth and perhaps hope to find evidence for some form of life on another world. And the distant universe will be revealed in ways never before possible. The EELT will answer important questions about how the universe as we see it came into being and what the future will hold. It will enable us to study the evolution of galaxies from the earliest times and will tell us more about some of the nature's most violent events. When black holes at the centers of galaxies accrete material and become active galactic nuclei. ESO has a long and proud history of pushing the boundaries of astronomy, both the engineering and the science. The EELT is the next step in ESO's remarkable quest, indeed humanity's remarkable quest, to unravel the mysteries of the universe. It's a huge step, but it will certainly not be the last.

What is a Commercial Electrician? (Commercial electrical installation)
|
What is a Commercial Electrician?
Commercial projects differ from residential projects. Thus, electrical specialists in this area are required. Therefore, always choose a specific commercial electrician for any commercial electrical installation. So what is a commercial electrician?
Commercial projects can be categorised as follows
1. Data Centres
2. Commercial Offices
3. Shops and retail spaces
4. Warehouses and Industrial
5. Hospitals, clinics and healthcare
6. Sports and Leisure
Electrical Installations for Data Centres
Data centres can be very densely populated with electrical installation requirements. They consist of two main areas with the same building.
1. The Data Centre Halls
2. The Administration and Client Areas
The data centre halls will require large-scale electrical installation work when constructed. However, besides, as the data halls grow and different clients require bespoke requirements, additional electrical installation work is required. This can be additional electrical sockets to a cabinet or on a wall for certain control equipment
The majority of our work in data centres is however in the space outside of the data halls. These consist of administration offices, meeting rooms, reception areas, and client space that they use when visiting.
Commercial Office Electrical Installations
Commercial offices are the most widespread of the commercial electrical industry. Every office requires a certain amount of electrical work, and although every office is different, they all have common similarities.
The electrical installation will usually cover the following services and area
1. Desks
2. Meeting Rooms
3. Audio Visual
4. Communication Rooms
5. Reception
6. Lighting
7. Building Services such as AC
Each commercial space will have different size teams, different technology, and different growth expectations. Therefore, extensive experience in commercial installations is a must. Therefore, the electrical systems designed for the initial stage will keep in mind the potential for growth in company size and hardware technology
Electrical Installations for Shops and Retail Spaces
The majority of retail installations are shops. However, these can merge into large shopping centres and department stores. The shops can vary immensely in size and requirements.
Warehouse and Industrial Electrical Installations
Warehouse and industrial buildings are categorised by their larger scope, size, and height. They also incorporate similar installations to offices, as most also have office space within them.
Hospitals, Clinics, and Healthcare Electrical Installations
An example of health care buildings can range from a small clinic to a large hospital. It can also include care homes, which although similar to residential they are a different installation consideration and thus a commercial installation.
.
Electrical installations for Sports, Hospitality and Leisure
The buildings in this sector include venues for entertainment, public houses, restaurants, cafes, cinemas, and sports stadiums. Likewise, as with healthcare buildings, these can vary in almost unlimited layouts and construction.
When hiring a commercial electrician, what should I know?
As explained above, every sector and every building within those sectors vary greatly. However, they all have a common thread in that a lot more planning and experience in those sectors are needed. In residential homes, houses generally have similar requirements. Furthermore, you only have one family or person to work around.
Commercial electrical installation companies should have experience in the following
A larger scale of work.
Commercial electricians have experience in a range of more complex projects. Complexity results in greater specifics and a greater range of requirements for electrical work.
Electrical Scope of works
Residential and commercial installations have a different scope and scale of electrical wiring requirements. In a home, the electrical wiring runs to similar-looking rooms through the walls or ceiling.
Electrical requirements
The overall power requirements in commercial spaces will be higher than in a residential setting. More equipment means more electrical circuits. More electrical circuits result in greater power requirements. A home will generally have one main fuse board. A commercial space may have several. All have to be designed to work together.

These consist of administration offices, meeting rooms, reception areas, and client space that they use when visiting. These areas constantly change. Therefore, electrical installation and data cabling installation are frequently required. Changes include new televisions, videos walls, Wi-Fi upgrades, signage and desk relocations, and additions. Commercial office electrical installations. Commercial offices are the most widespread of the commercial electrical industry. Every office requires a certain amount of electrical work, and although every office is different, they all have common similarities. The electrical installation will usually cover the following services and area. 1. Desks. 2. Meeting rooms. 3. Audio-visual. 4. Communication rooms. 5. Reception. 6. Lighting. 7.

The majority of retail installations are shops. However, these can merge into large shopping centres and department stores. The shops can vary immensely in size and requirements. Regardless of size, the biggest challenge in electrical retail installations is how they are constructed. The aesthetics and design are an important part of a store brand. The access and routes for electrical cabling in a shop are usually quite complicated. In an office, there would be a false ceiling, false floor, trunking, or maybe even all three. In a shop, there are generally solid ceilings, lots of shelving, covered floor space, and constant customer traffic. This is where previous commercial experience is important. Thus knowing the best times to undertake the installation, advising on disruption, and knowledge of getting around the difficult cabling routes. In an office environment, people can be moved to different desks to void the electrical installation work. However, in a store, they are open at set times. Therefore, the majority of retail installations are out of hours and in the evenings. Warehouse and industrial electrical installations. Warehouse and industrial buildings are categorized by their larger scope, size, and height. They also incorporate similar installations to offices, as most also have office space within them. However, what sets them apart is the greater size. Greater size usually results in larger requirements. The containment is bigger, the cables are larger, and the distance traveled is greater. Furthermore, additional access equipment is generally required. Installation may be undertaken on powered scissor lifts or boom lifts. Each location is generally unique, and a commercial experience is important in these settings than probably in any other. Hospitals, clinics, and healthcare electrical installations. An example of healthcare buildings can range from a small clinic to a large hospital. It can also include care homes, which although similar to residential they are a different installation consideration, and thus a commercial installation. Clinics and hospitals are generally constructed with false ceilings and at times existing containment. Therefore, the routes and access can be efficient. However, the challenge is working around patients, staff, and delicate equipment. Care homes differ in that the majority have solid ceilings and routes. Older homes will be constructed of older brick construction throughout, and routes will be difficult. In many cases, the cabling involves a lot of disruption. Electrical installations for sports, hospitality and leisure. The buildings in this sector include venues for entertainment, public houses, restaurants, cafes, cinemas, and sports stadiums. Likewise, as with healthcare buildings, these can vary in almost unlimited layouts and construction. They probably have the least common and effective construction for installing new electrical cabling. Aesthetics, ambience, and branding are very important in this space, so easy access is not usually possible. Thus, bespoke installations, planning, and design are generally required. In addition, working out of hours into a set schedule is a common attribute of this sector. When hiring a commercial electrician, what should I know? As explained above, every sector and every building within those sectors vary greatly. However, they all have a common thread in that a lot more planning and experience in those sectors are needed. In residential homes, houses generally have similar requirements. Furthermore, you only have one family or person to work around. In these commercial settings it is important to know the commercial electrical regulations, but furthermore how to design and work around operational buildings. In addition, planning for the future and not just installing for the present. Commercial electrical installation companies should have experience in the following. A larger scale of work. Commercial electricians have experience in a range of more complex projects. Complexity results in greater specifics and a greater range of requirements for electrical work. Electrical scope of works. Residential and commercial installations have a different scope and scale of electrical wiring requirements. In a home, the electrical wiring runs to similar looking rooms through the walls or ceiling. However, in commercial settings, the electrical cabling can be installed in the ceiling, walls, floors, externally, on a tray, basket, or in a metal or plastic conduit. The electrical cabling can be for a greater number of requirements and different power ratings, such as 13 amp, 16 amp, 32 amp etc. In a residential setting, it will all be general 13 amp sockets with a few additional exceptions. Electrical requirements. The overall power requirements in commercial spaces will be higher than in a residential setting. More equipment means more electrical circuits. More electrical circuits result in greater power requirements. A home will generally have one main fuse board. A commercial space may have several. All have to be designed to work together. Summary of what is a commercial electrician. As discussed, it comes down to the breadth of qualification and the breadth of experience. A large range of customers in the commercial space in the past 20 years can give you confidence that we can assist, design, and install the correct system for you.

The chairman's forum of the National Youth Council of Nigeria NYCN across the 36 state chapters has called on President Bola Tinibu to expedite action by strengthening the nation's security architecture to tackle mandatory terrorism, secessionists and other lingering security threats confronting the nation. The forum made the call at a press conference and inauguration of new set of leadership in Kaduna State to represent the interests of Nigeria's youth. The chairman of the forum, Comrade Abdul Salam Olushegun said youth councils are ready to continue providing intelligence support to create an enabling environment for economic growth and development for the teaming citizens. In light of recent events, the chairman forum appealed to the inspector general of police and other security chiefs to be vigilant and appointed individual who firstly present themselves as representative of national youth council of Nigeria for personal gain and fraudulent activities. The chairman forum which awaits is confidence. In the leadership of the national president, Ambassador Sokubo Saagwe Sokubo, they comment in as the only elected and recognized president representing the interests of the young people of Nigeria. Also, the forum appealed to the inspector general of police in Nigerians to be cautious of those parading themselves as leaders of youth councils while passing a vote of confidence under the leadership of the national president, Ambassador Sokubo Saagwe Sokubo, the only elected and recognized president. Chairman for one on behalf of the entire youth of Nigeria, we call on Mr President to expedite action and strengthen the national security architecture as the youth pledge to continue to provide intelligence support to us creating an enabling environment for economic development and prosperity of our beloved nation. The youth leadership of the country will be committed to advocating for the youth, for the right of the youth and provide necessary platform for our young people to continue voice their concerns and aspirations. Ambassador Sokubo Saagwe Sokubo Saagwe Sokubo Saagwe Some people in their own self-will decided to avail themselves for positions that were not accorded them by due constituted process as recognized by our constitution and the few that probably they can get away with it. So we are seeing the whole thing is under deliberation by the neck on the procedures that is needed to get up to them. But what we are saying is that whatever position they stand to represent does not reflect our laws, does not reflect the position of the federal republic of Nigeria when it comes to the youth council. However, laws and we work with it. So any such person hiding under any guise either manipulate sponsored for self or personal interests or whatsoever, the security architecture should take note of those people and apprehend them because they are not representing the best interests of reverse youth.

GSC Spring 2019: Effects of Energy Transitions on Opportunities in Rural America
|
Welcoming Remarks: 00:23
Julia Haggerty, Montana State University: 10:35
Betsy Taylor, LiKEN: 47:34
Dustin Mulvaney, San Jose State University: 1:31:02
Questions for the Panel: 2:17:23
Although the US population is predominantly urban, rural America will continue to play a critical role in shaping future national development. The nation's dependence on its rural people and landscapes is highlighted by the fact that energy, water, minerals, and biomass resources (food and fiber) will come largely from rural areas. The energy sector is changing, with renewable sources supplying an increasing proportion of total energy and new technologies altering methods and locations of hydrocarbon extraction. What will be the ripple effects of this energy transition on rural lands and rural Americans? This is an inherently geographical question, as energy-related changes and their effects will differ at different locations. Moreover, geographers integrate component parts of a landscape system to understand their interactions and predict multi-faceted outcomes. In this case, the landscape system is rural America and the outcomes are not only the direct economic benefits of energy production, but also opportunities to enhance the many other functions of the rural landscape and its rural communities in the process of energy transition. The following questions will guide this discussion:
1. What types of changes related to energy transition have already been observed in rural areas?
2. What are the ripple effects of these changes to rural communities and states?
3. What new opportunities in rural areas are expected to be associated with this transition?
4. What new geographic patterns (e.g., of economic activity, human migration, environmental costs and benefits) are emerging (or expected to emerge) as a result of the energy transition?

let's begin. Welcome everybody, the people in the room and the people online. Welcome to this open meeting of the Geographical Sciences Committee. I'm Carol Harden. I chair the committee. Today we have the opportunity to consider the effects of energy transition on opportunities in rural America. So the way this is going to work is we'll start off with just a few introductions and I'll make just a couple comments to kind of set the stage for all this. And then we'll have three speakers. The first two are here in the room with us. And then Dr. Julia Haggerty and Dr. Betsy Taylor. After their presentations we'll take a short break and then we'll have a presentation. We'll reconvene for presentation by Dr. Dostin Mulvaney, who will be speaking to us at 3 o'clock Eastern time from San Jose, California. After each presentation we'll have a few moments for questions and answers. And then we'll have a longer session for discussion at the end of the afternoon and we plan to end the whole open session by 4.30. So that's the overall picture. I'd like to begin with some introductions and we'll start with the people in the room and I ask you to when you do speak just hit the go button on your microphone so that people offline, online can hear you. And what do we need to know? Name? Institution? That's probably good enough. So I'm Carol Hardin. I'm a professor emerita of the University of Tennessee, although I now reside in the state of Vermont. My name is Jacqueline Vajunek. I'm a program officer for geography and spatial sciences at NSF. Okay, I was pushing the sign that says push to talk. I'm Betsy Taylor. I'm executive director of the livelihoods knowledge exchange network. I'm Julia Haggerty. I'm at Montana State University. I'm Nancy Jackson. I'm at New Jersey Institute of Technology. Boudu Haddi, Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Karlie Brody with the National Academies. Elizabeth Aida with the National Academies. Bill Selecki, City University of New York Hunter College. Marilyn Brown, I'm a regents professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Glenn McDonald from UCLA. Deb Glick from National Academies. And then we have just a few people with us online today. I wonder if we could ask you to just say your name and if you're affiliated with an institution or the place where you are at the moment. I think we have a few others. Hi, my name is Kristin Smith. I'm at Montana State University. Okay. Well, welcome to everybody. Whether or not you were able to introduce yourself, I think we'll go ahead and move forward. I'd like to give you just a little bit of context for this meeting. The mission of our geographical sciences committee, which is a standing committee here at the National Academies. Our mission is to serve the nation. And one way we do this is to convene meetings such as this one on topics that we think are really important to the country's future. One of the purposes of this meeting is to educate ourselves. But beyond that, what we really want to do here today is to consider what is and what is not well understood about the effects of the current energy transmission on opportunities for rural America. We see this topic as being inherently geographic as well as interdisciplinary. And in the past few years, our committee has spent a lot of time considering questions that primarily relate to urban areas. So we really wanted to turn our attention to rural America. Plus, we understand that our cities wouldn't exist without the rest of the country. We need food, fiber, fuel, water, ecosystem services, raw materials. I mean, we basically need all of our rural America and we need to make sure that the opportunities are there for rural America. We see an energy transition at play. We see a real move toward solar and wind power, toward battery storage. And in many places, it's really becoming a reality and we expect this transformation to become even more dramatic in the next decade. For one thing, the economics of the energy transition, the economics of it are changing and the cost of renewable energy is really on the decline. And this goes, this isn't political. Sometimes we worry about political differences between rural and urban places. But as you can see on this map, it has red states, red parts of states and blue parts of states. The blue ones are congressional districts held by the Democrats in the 116th, the current Congress, and the red, of course, are Republicans. And these are all districts with online wind projects and wind related manufacturing facilities. So we're not only seeing this move toward wind energy in places that we might think of as very progressively politically blue. We're seeing this change, this transition going on really across the country. Some of the predicted changes are really quite dramatic. And to use coal as an example, just last week, an online writer for Forbes noted that six years from now, most coal plants in the United States are expected to cost more to operate than the cost of building replacement solar and wind within 35 miles of the plant itself. And so the map that shows up here actually toggles back and forth between 2018 and 2025. But the real picture is that the reds are more than 25% less cost for renewables. And then of course, it grades into the blues and the dark. So you can see that there's a definite geography to this. And it is in every place in the country where renewables are going to be costing a lot less according to this projection. But there is a very definite geography to it. So we're seeing the energy transition happening. And there are a lot of drivers for that. Certainly we're worried about public health. And we're worried about the fact that our energy choices have just tremendous consequences for the whole earth planetary system. This is the last map that I have to show you. And this is a map from the climate communication group at Yale. That is the result of a survey of the estimated percentage of adults who think that global warming is happening. And as you can see, we're now at a point where pretty much more than half the population across the country is seeing is ready to say yes, we think that we think this is happening. And so this is of course, one of the drivers for the energy transition. Also, now to guide our discussion today, the committee, as we thought about this, posed a set of four questions. I'm going to put these up now, and maybe we'll refer back to these later. The first one is just what types of changes related to the energy transition have already been observed in rural areas? Where are we now? What are we seeing? The second question is, what are the ripple effects of these changes to rural communities and states? And then this is really a big question for us, the open ended one. What new opportunities in rural areas are expected to be associated with this transition? So what is the future? What what could the future hold in the name in the realm of opportunity? And then because we're geographers, we've asked what new geographic patterns, for instance, economic activity, human migration, environmental cost and benefits are emerging or are expected to emerge as a result of the energy transition. So with those, I think I've given you enough background that we should just jump right in to our hearing from our speakers today. Our first speaker will be Dr. Julia Haggerty. She's a member of the Department of Earth Sciences at Montana State University. And she also has a faculty appointment in the Montana Institute on Ecosystems. She leads work on problems of community resilience, energy impacts and rural land use change. And she currently directs a multi institutional research project called escaping the resource curse, which is funded by the US Department of Agriculture. In addition, she co directs energy impacts.org, which is an NSF funded research coordination network focused on social science, research on energy development. She holds a BA from Colorado College and a PhD, not in geography, but in history, from the University of Colorado at Boulder. She was a postdoc at the Center for the Study of Agriculture and the Environment at the University of Otago for two years. I guess we're all geographers, we all know that Otago was in New Zealand. And then for the following five years work as a policy analyst for the regional nonprofit research group, Headwaters Economics based in Bozeman, Montana. She is a member of the American Association of Geographers, the AAG, and she has served as Secretary of the AAG's Environment and Energy Specialty Group and as a member of the Board of Directors for the Rural Geography Specialty Group. This year she received the Professional Geographer Award from the Energy and Environment Specialty Group. Congratulations, Julia. She's no stranger to the academies either and since 2015 she served as a member of the Roundtable on unconventional oil and gas here. The title of her presentation is energy transitions in, oh, it changed, the third West transition, the big picture on small places. So please tell me welcome Dr. Haggerty. Are we testing? Happy? Yeah, thank you. It was a squeak? Yeah. Okay. So good afternoon and greetings from the Rockies. It was 20 degrees when I woke up yesterday. So it's a pleasure to be here. But it's also an honor. So thank you so much for the invitation. See, oh, and before I even to my prepared comments, I will note one thing that Dr. Hardin didn't observe, which is in the mandate for this committee discussion. It did include transitions associated with unconventional hydrocarbon production. So don't be surprised when you hear about that in my talk. So the energy transition isn't exclusively a rural phenomenon, but it has outsized effects in rural areas. And what I've done is organized my comments to focus on three issues that have emerged as priorities for geographic research and scholarship. And this is just based on my experience as a resource geographer working in the American West. And these three issues are first, understanding the feedbacks and linkages between agricultural and energy system change, coordinating research in energy landscapes to improve its intellectual merit, and to improve broader impacts of that work. And finally, addressing the gap in transition planning in rural America, including doing what I call getting real about legacy issues. So to make these priorities, I want to first provide just a quick primer on the economic geography of the rural West. And then I'll turn to recent and ongoing research in both oil and gas and coal communities. This is necessarily kind of headlines and highlights. And I brought a lot of B slides in case we want to follow up in Q&A. So starting with economic geography. Energy transition, as you know, is playing out in a highly uneven economic landscape with opportunities increasingly concentrated in just a few urban areas in this country. So this is a post industrial economy that has significant challenges for isolated remote areas. I call these places the third West, which is an adaptation of the economist Ray Rasker's Three West concept that asks us to rethink what it means to be rural. So rather than being a function of population density, the Three West concept emphasizes access to markets, including via airports. So the Three West really are three categories of Western counties that perform differently in terms of social and economic metrics. There are the metropolitan counties where the majority of economic activity happens, counties that are connected to them through transportation networks, which include airports. And then finally, this third category of isolated counties. So, Jennifer's will know that this third area constitutes a formal economic region, and also overlaps with our academic and popular notions of the rural West. It's characterized by open spaces, landscapes of extraction and production has very low population densities. And this data visualization from Headwaters Economics shows the third West counties in gray, and shows that compared to metro and connected counties, these remote counties are less able to capture high wage service job, have lower average earnings per job, and greater income volatility. Demographically, the region suffers from out migration and aging population and typically lower levels of educational attainment. I'm looking at Deb and Carly. So the social and economic effects of being isolated from growing economic sectors are compounded by ongoing trends of mechanization in the primary sectors, and the effects of long time dependence on volatile commodity markets. Another important characteristic of this region is what the rural sociologist Carl Crenzel called the social cost of space. The social cost of space describes the confounding effects of distance and low population density on the cost of providing social and governmental services. From doctors to snow plows, there's simply more time and distance involved in providing services and fewer people to bear the cost. In the third West and other rural parts of America, research documents four times fewer adults for a reformal volunteer role than an urban and suburban areas. There's not fewer nonprofits doing the work of providing services. There's just fewer people to staff those positions. Outdated fiscal policy also tends to define these geographies. Tax and expenditure limits adopted during the tax revolt at both the state and the local level mean that counties often can't grow themselves out of a fiscal crisis. And that decades after extracting valuable natural resources or generating electricity for remote cities, they have little to no public funds on hand to assist with transition. So all these factors are important when we think about community capacity to respond to economic and environmental change. And there are other changes on the table as well. The impacts of climate change are one. But industrial development is also changing. Where traditional industrial development asked rural people to live and work with extraction or industrial production in exchange for decent wages and long term employment. Today's industrial projects tend to promise fewer local jobs for a shorter amount of time, suggesting that the value proposition for these projects is largely about public revenue, which as I suggested, rural counties often have a really difficult time capturing. So let me shift now to some research highlights. Starting with energy and agriculture. So Kristen Smith is on the phone, provided this picture from her dissertation research. When farming dominates the rural landscape, new energy development is going to run into existing agricultural land use. So as in the case of these five semi trucks that are hauling water to a frack job near this North Dakota wheat farm. This expanding energy agriculture overlay has prompted important research about resource competition in these sectors about environmental outcomes, as well as work into how agricultural operators and communities experience and perceive energy development. In this study of land use effects of oil and gas development, we asked estimated loss provisioning ecosystem services in the Great Plains across North America as a function of new oil and gas wells that were constructed between 2000 and 2012. The results document a loss to energy sprawl of the equivalent of 5 million animal unit months of forage or 120 million bushels of wheat. We know that ongoing work by geoscientists is continuing to refine how we understand energy and water conflicts. And together these kinds of studies tend to depict fossil fuel and energy development as it odds. However, in our work in Western oil and gas landscape, we find a more complicated picture. Landowners more commonly describe unconventional oil and gas less as a zero sum game and more as a balancing act. And this is even the case for landowners who don't stand to directly benefit personally from energy development. Our research is finding that in addition to the value that rural stakeholders put on broader benefits to their communities, at both the farm and the regional scale, they see the oil and gas boom as an opportunity to expand hard infrastructure that they understand to be critical to their long term economic viability, especially roads and water delivery systems. This massive expansion of infrastructure, which is typically overlooked in approaches to the energy agriculture nexus, presents real questions about whether an already marginal land use system, we're talking about farming in the arid west, is made more resilient or more rigid, both in socioeconomic and social ecological terms. So this I submit is a critical area for future research and just as a plug for qualitative research, both of these dissertation projects that you see here have revealed this new area through slow, careful, qualitative research. Our research on planning efforts by oil and gas communities documents a surge of organizing and innovation in these places. Local groups share information, they plan impact mitigation, they otherwise respond to the impact of an energy boom. These are all trends that demonstrate a huge amount of rural community resilience. But at the same time their efforts tend to be reactive. They're spending a huge amount of social capital and energy on filling a regulatory gap that exists with respect to impact assessment and mitigation. And all these activities are a reminder that in our world is developed governance, industrial development exploits a vast amount of uncompensated volunteer labor. So these are ad hoc governance efforts to address energy impacts that aren't a substitute for robust impact assessment for planning. And they especially fall short when it comes to addressing legacy concerns. The challenges of local planning become even more evident when we switch to thinking about the coal transition. So here you see coal strip, which is a mine mouth power plant built in a remote spot in eastern Montana. It went online in the 1980s. And it was built to deliver electricity to Seattle and Portland, which if you're not familiar with the geography right is hundreds of miles away. And those markets are now seeking to actively decarbonize their electricity mix. But that's not actually why these two older units of coal strips for generating units will schedule will close in three years. These units are closing to resolve a lawsuit about non-compliance with the mercury and nantoxic standards. And the future of these other two stacks is very much in question right now. So coal strips situation embodied many of the complexities of the coal transition in the west. This is a facility just at the generating scale that has multiple plant owners who are in multiple jurisdictions subject to a diverse set of accountability structures with respect to decommissioning. The mine company recently declared bankruptcy and so now the mine is being held by the holding company. And together these ownership dynamics create an overlapping but disintegrated decision-making space about decommissioning and reclamation. And these are spaces that rural communities are typically poorly prepared to negotiate. Coal strip is a relatively empowered company town. It has unionized workers at the mine and at the plant. It's surrounded by relatively disempowered Native American nations who are nonetheless greatly influenced by developments in the coal economy. And as you can see here there's a vast existing infrastructure. There is in addition to the plants in the mine a water pipeline that brings water from the Yellowstone River hundreds of miles away and transmission lines that has been built. Railroad a railroad leg and a pretty significant existing environmental legacy. So we have a leaking coal ash pond problem here as well as real questions about what the future looks like. So we're studying how local and state entities are responding to the coal transition in the West and I want to share a little bit about that. But first I want to just think about the coal transition as a geographic phenomenon at the national scale. So as you know the dissolution of the U.S. generating fleet coal generating fleet happening it's accelerating. Here we show what we think is the most up-to-date timeline of coal generating capacity going out into the future. So here we show green these are all coal additions over time in gray we show retirements here we are in the present and this is what we know is happening in the future. And I just want to remind the committee that this is not wholly what we would call a clean energy transition. So we add in this chart natural gas additions in bright blue that's a lot of natural gas capacity that we've added and it raises some pretty serious questions about past dependency in our electricity system. But let's think about this as a spatial issue and as a problem for planning. The coal transition clearly affects both mines and plants but we haven't had a research or a policy space that really connects those developments in an effective way to date. So we're just starting to do this and we're doing it in collaboration with colleagues at Headwaters Economics and the University of Wyoming. And what we find when we aggregate these data sets and it's a pretty complicated set of data connections we have to make is that while every nine in ten megawatts of power that's scheduled to retire at a power plant is in a metropolitan or connected place seven in every ten tons of coal that the jeopardy from these plant closures is in a remote and rural place. So that's actually not that surprising if you know that 40 percent of the nation's coal is mined in a single county in Wyoming. But we're all we're really interested in this as a planning problem. So we've asked about the places where plant and mine closures coincide to make this really complex set of planning challenges. So here we map a very early assessment of the complexity of the closure of the decommissioning planning space. Every dot you see here is a county that hosts a mine or a power plant or both. Those that are at risk of losing both a generating station and a mine are shown in red and those that show a risk of losing either a mine or a plant even in partial amounts are shown in yellow and green dots are what we call safe for now. So in the western portion of the map you can see that the third west and the energy transition really begin to line up. We consider this as a planning and cumulative impact assessment challenges and as I said are interested in governance responses. In this paper we synthesize literature from community resilience, economic geography, and planning scholarships to create a framework for assessing transition planning and then we apply that to 10 ongoing plant closures in the west. What we learned from this work is that in rural geographies anticipating the loss of a plant planning for transition ranges from non-existent to fairly inadequate. The closure of two of coal strips generating units for example has produced two planning documents one by the coal industry that focuses on rolling back regulation and another by the local economic development coalition that focuses on attracting replacement heavy industries such as tire burning facilities. So coal strips existing plans like the majority of emerging planning processes really struggle to address the four elements that we see as critical to robust transition planning. You need to have a plan to replace lost revenue. You need to plan for environmental reclamation and try to build that into local economic opportunities. Planning needs to be realistic about economic geography and what opportunities really exist and it's important for planning processes to reflect an outlook that is forward looking rather than backward looking. So thinking about this kind of planning problem it's easy to blame the lack of a mandate and the loss of federal assistance for transition planning but the reality I would argue is that there's really a series of conditions that converge to produce what I call the transition planning policy gap. So this diagram suggests that this policy gap and planning gap occurs when local limits on capacity meet a set of exogenous barriers to transition planning and the result is in the middle of communities that really has no way to chart its course forward and I use this diagram also to make some suggestions for what we as geographers might consider doing. So first I would encourage us to think about the ways we can respond to the local factors that are shown here on the left. Despite high levels of social capital and community resilience resource dependent communities often suffer from a lack of planning capacity. A tendency toward what my favorite environmental sociologist Bill Friedmird would call addictive economic decisions and hugely overtaxed social systems. So here's an excellent opportunity for service learning at local universities and colleges as well as professional training programs to support participatory planning impact modeling and assessment and to fill community capacity gaps. As the case of the diverse stakeholder landscape of culture illustrates support for local planning also has to be integrated at the regional scale. So geographers I would argue really need to work to think about what the most creative and effective forms that regional coordination in impact assessment and mitigation might take. As a quick detour I'll note that there is a risk that uncoordinated research creates unwanted costs in communities and actually skews our research findings. So we have a USDA funded inquiry into the topic of research fatigue in energy communities and it's produced a meta-analysis of all of the shale research that has been conducted between 2000 and 2018 and all the times that social scientists have gone out to collect data in energy communities. And there appears to be a correlation between the number of universities in an area and the amount of research that goes on. So we're lucky that the National Science Foundation supports our energy impact research coordination network. But going back to Cole, making the case for regional coordination. This is something we've done before. We've done rapid and serious engaged research regional scale before. The Cole infrastructure which you can see on this map in the left in the west is for the most part relatively new and it was built in a moment of unprecedented coordination. So the scope of the 1971 north-central power study hundreds of coal mines and power plants across the northern Great Plains and Pacific Northwest galvanized armies of scholars and researchers to study potential impacts. So many of my senior colleagues at Montana State were active in those assessments. The data they produced were important to policymakers, especially the western governors who collaborated to insist that the new coal infrastructure came with a social contract about its long-term impact. And if you're familiar with SMACRA we really have SMACRA because of this level of coordination. I think it goes without saying that this social contract is one that's largely been abandoned at this point in time. Indeed anyone who digs into local coal transition planning finds they face an enormously complex set of external forces shown here on the right. So these involve not only the national political atmosphere which you can see down here, but also importantly the private corporations in the regulatory environment in which they operate. Coal mining companies are in the midst of a cycle of bankruptcy proceedings that allow organizations like Arch Coal or Peabody to shed debt in the order of billions of dollars. In the influence of corporate structure and corporate regulation on how social impacts and long-term environmental challenges and legacy risk is addressed is a vital research gap. So I submit here is the work for an upcoming generation of critical resource geographers. So to summarize I advocate for a few priorities for geographic scholarship. This is not to the exclusion of many other important trajectories but just what I know from my own experience. So these priorities are continuing to consider the feedback between agriculture and energy, coordinating research and doing better engagement, and jumping into the transition planning policy gap. So thanks for your attention so far. I'm very grateful to the collaborators and funders that make this work possible. I'm happy to take any questions and dig into details that you might find interesting now. Who has a question? Well I'll begin. You showed us a pretty dramatic view of this coal plant that is in transition of some sort and it looked like there was a community right adjacent to it. So what is your guess if the whole place were to shut down what is your guess of what would happen to that community? Would it completely die? Would everybody go somewhere else? Well let's just remember that. So here's coal strip. It was a planned community. They have won some awards for the community planning that was implemented in this community. I want to just remind you that it is in a landscape of indigenous nations with people who are not going anywhere. What I've heard from people that I know in coal strip is that many of the mine and plant workers who are near retirement age will either stay and retire in the community or likely are in a position to migrate out. I think this is a place where one of the things we consider in our transition policy analysis is whether sort of planning for population shrinkage is an important planning enterprise. So what happens to this community in the long term it's really hard to say I would expect significant out migration but there is this huge infrastructure that is built in this place. While we're on that slide, Julia, what kind of covers are on that facility and to what extent has that local community been subject to deleterious air pollution? So I'm not an expert in the technology of scrubbers but I will say that there's an interesting story here which is that the northern Cheyenne reservation when coal strip was being proposed at this moment of great coordination was very opposed to the construction of this power plant. This is in the late 1970s and so insisted on particularly in the second two stacks what we were then the sort of state-of-the-art scrubbers with respect to removing but these two older stacks aren't compliant and it's not cost effective to retrofit them for mercury and air toxic. The big environmental issue that most people are paying attention to is that there has been significant seepage of these ash ponds to the extent that many of the domestic wells in this town are threatened and it's a difficult topic to study because as part of the legal settlement all of the homeowners are bound by non-disclosure agreements and we're just in the process in the state of just now finalizing and approving the plans for addressing that coal seepage issue but that local air pollution is not an issue that has been on the radar right now. I'm sure the pollution is going somewhere. I'm just looking at that photograph I'm astounded that that's planned community was put so close to four large coal burning plant units. Very very interesting talk. It's just a question about you know about that community. One of the things I've been been looking at and some people some of my students have been asking similar questions about sort of legacies of sort of past change right and so how much of that remains and you know by no means an expert on the question but you know in other rural areas I'm more familiar with this always been at some level there's been cycles of boom and busts right and you kind of highlighted some of those exogenous factors so I guess the question you know given the stresses facing these types of communities is there kind of a legacy maybe a real simple level who are those folks and but more importantly you know what's the legacy of boom and bust and how are they sort of interpreting what's going on you know as part is that part of a series of of boom and bust processes that they you know maybe their grandparents or parents experienced and and how are they sort of thinking about is there opportunities for you know we're talking about transitions are they thinking about like you know carol mentioned relocation but are they also thinking about reimagining you know what the town could be I guess there's you know a lot of little pieces of that question but I apologize for that question I'm sure you'll hear a lot more about this in Betty's talk so I would make two distinctions the coal many of these coal towns in the west particularly in the powder river basin were constructed in the 70s so we're not really talking about multiple generations of that experience oil and gas communities on the other hand and then and since that time for the most part coal production was really quite steady until very recently so I wouldn't think of those places coal strip was complicated coal strip was a coal export community during before the railroads switched to diesel but there are not many people in coal strip that you know were present from the 1950s when the dieselization affected the railroads until the power plants were built so most of these people who are living there now came during the 70s and 80s and more recently but oil and gas communities show real sensitivity to boom and bust cycles one of things they tend to be is very fiscally conservative in response to that and they they face kind of like an impossible conundrum when it comes to making investments in local infrastructure and thinking about how to move forward but we have we do know some really interesting examples of communities like i said who are trying to use moments of windfall to make investments that they think will benefit them in the long term but they face a pretty challenging circumstance with respect to doing that kind of if i answered your question you did a quick follow-up i mean are these communities and you gave a great national picture as well about i mean is there any kind of connectivity between these communities that's a great question so i as i said i'm a huge advocate for doing regional coordination it's just building in the west so we've worked with the just transition fund and they're really interested in thinking about how to tackle this problem in the west because you can see that it's like a really spread out landscape and it doesn't necessarily have that kind of close regional identity that you might see in Appalachia but nonetheless there are some efforts to bring people together in the national association of counties is trying to do some organizing to support coal communities you think it's an open question kind of what's going to work best but i will say that the idea that we don't have regional coordination in the powder river basin where 40 percent of our coal comes from much of which is at risk that's that's a real problem so one of the transition opportunities that tva has taken advantage of is the conversion of coal plants to solar farms serving server farms you know so helping to bring better better fiber optics into rural areas at the same time giving some hope of additional employment there's never as many jobs as the coal plant offered but we saw introduced introduced by carol before your talk a statistic that indicated that we i think you've showed that we now have are facing a situation where it's cheaper to replace a coal plant that's already operating with in many cases with solar so i assume that there is some discussion along these lines to try to do the break even analysis how many years would it take to break even with that investment and have you been privy to any of those results so what what you'll just want to remember two things i would say about that so here's colster about here it has five different utilities that would be doing those irp evaluations to think about what kinds of investments they want to make an infrastructure certainly there is a lot of beneficial transmission access that opens up so if you this hasn't happened in oregon and washington yet but as you know california now requires all of their um their renewable generation to be generated within the state as part of new proceeding so there's a real question about what the market is for remote sort of renewable assets and you'll hear from justin like questions about whether or not that really even makes sense but then i would say as a person who's interested in economic geography these places don't generate revenue and they don't generate jobs so that the sort of they can generate revenue for individual landowners but typically they are not a solution for a place like coal strips in terms of helping that economy stay whole and one last point i would make about that is that in addition to the broken fiscal policies that we have in the case of renewables it gets worse because most states offer big tax incentives associated with renewables so in montana it's basically a penny on a dollar if you're a rural community that's going to have renewable resources in terms of revenue versus the community that's going to have fossil fuel resources so a state level policy that has real implications for your tolerance and interest in hosting these facilities is a big issue and then just this question that i heard most compellingly by a just transition advocate who just asked you know to what extent is ownership in the solar industry any different than ownership in the coal industry and how can we make sure that we keep this kind of question of being colonized at the top of our mind when we make decisions about energy transition. Elizabeth has been patiently waiting. One last question. Julie i wondered if you could speak toward we know in North Dakota from some colleagues who work there that they have have tried to take the approach of putting away funds for this future rainy day and to some degree i think they've been successful in at least putting some of the money away and it's probably too early to tell because they haven't come to that stage where the industry is actually on decline. I wonder if you could comment on anything that you've seen or or the research that you've done that that indicates that that model could be successful and kind of softening this boom bust situation or if or if there's so many factors at play that this pot of money waiting there is not going to you know not going to be the panacea if you could comment on that if we know anything now that could make us more wise. So you definitely want to have a legacy fund right you want to be Norway not West Virginia but here's just a philosophical way i think about it so there's kind of two issues right one is this idea that the revenues that you get the public revenues that you generate from natural resource extraction partly reflect the reason we call it severance right is is taking a non-renewable resource and turning it into capital and so that non-renewable resource is now gone and no longer a source of potential economic development in the state so that capital to the degree that you hold some of it back as public revenue should be about long-term investment it should not be about covering the cost of developing that in the first place and so that's a real problem with using public revenue to plan for future legacy remediation so you understand what i'm saying so i think North Dakota has made some really positive moves compared to other states and that legacy funds to the extent that they create a government structure for administering it that is free from kind of corruption which is sometimes a problem in these state banks is a really positive sign but i don't think it's a solution to questions about legacy well thank you so much and let's thank julia hegerty one more time we'll move on now but we do have another chance later in the afternoon if you have any further questions for her or ideas that come from that our next speaker will be dr betsey taylor she's a cultural anthropologist who has worked for community-driven development in appalachia i have a problem of i grew up in a place where we say appalachia i live for 30 years where we say appalachia and now i live in vermont where we say appalachia again what do you say betsey oh appalachia because you're in contact well and that's where it's right okay anyway she is the executive director and founding director of lichen which stands for livelihoods knowledge exchange network it's a link tank based in lexington kentucky that was developed to fill gaps in the planning resources of underserved communities and particularly to build support systems for community-based assessments of risks and assets she has an academic history too having worked at the university of kentucky and at virginia tech in the early 2000 she was an adjunct faculty member in the department of anthropology and a visiting assistant professor in the department of geography at the university of kentucky and at kentucky she also served as research director and faculty co-research director of the appalachian center and as co-director of the environmental studies program they got a lot out of you when you were there at virginia tech she was a research faculty member in the appalachian studies program among her publications is the 2010 book co-authored with herbert reid called recovering the commons democracy place and global justice that was the university of illinois press she's a nationally recognized researcher in 2013 she was appointed to the steering committee of the u.s extractive industries transparency initiative by the secretary of the department of interior and she recently chaired the human rights social justice committee of the society for applied anthropology also she served as the vice president of the political ecology society she holds a phd in anthropology from the university of michigan and earlier on some years ago held a watson fellowship that allowed her to gather data in japan the philippines and the paul on the impact of ecological change on ethical notions regarding quote nature i love that part of your cv her title today is energy transitions and the first west the complex histories of appalachia's emerging futures thank you thank you so much it's just such a pleasure to be here and already in this time i've i've learned so much it's there there are many many resonances so one of our tasks was to talk about transitions energy transitions that are already underway and so i have a photo of just about one of the few energy transitions that has actually happened in central appalachia where there's been very little uptake of of renewable energy this you you see before you the solar array on the roof of the kentucky coal museum in benham in harland county kentucky which is a very historic coal camp that's been there since the early 19th 20th century and this embodies the key theme of my talk which is that the emergent new energy realities very much are growing out of the very complex systemic patterns of the past and it's been extremely helpful to already to think about to happen in her regional conversation when i was preparing for this i reread an article by elinor ostrom about avoiding panaceas and i found it very helpful for trying to think about what our intellectual tasks are right now and her goal in that article was to say we have to think very seriously about what the broad intellectual tasks are of doing actionable policy relevant science for to manage complex adaptive systems and her point is that we have i really like this phrase of hers our habits as scholars and as officials are to decompose a complex adaptive system into manageable units where you can delimit the causal factors that you you need to think about in order to look clearly at causal interactions or if you were developing a government program or any kind of program you need to have an efficient way to assess impact so you need to to clearly see cause and effect her point is that if we do that decompose reality in that way then we will actually be promulgating policy panaceas which are limited solutions which almost inherently cannot scale and respond to the to the multi-layered scale jumping path dependent realities of complex adaptive systems and her argument is very similar to what julia has just so wonderfully laid out which is we have to we can't think of one person doing this or one unit we really need to think about ways to create what she calls diagnostic frameworks for much larger multiplicity multiplicity intellectual endeavors that bring together many kinds of of players in in that conversation so in thinking about this my the way i picture this situation is that we're talking when we're talking about energy systems let's say the coal energy system it's like looking at a three-dimensional chess game where in many ways you have the same players appearing and so well julie was talking i kept getting the shock of recognition oh there's the queen there's the rook you know but they're on different boards because of the way in which nested subsystems essentially take on these very path dependent and various causalities so in this presentation i'm going to go very broad because as we are developing is through like in this the link tank that i'm working with now and our wide webs of partnerships we also are creating these sort of big projects where we're looking for what i think is can be well described as diagnostic frameworks that can encompass multiplicities and i'm finding it in almost all of the projects that we're doing now we uh we're bringing together community people scholars officials um various players artists very excitingly and one of the first things we do is something that we're calling naming just using exercises to identifying what we're talking about what causal factors are at stake and then the next part we we call framing and this is language that partly comes from the kennering foundation and and then the final stage is alignment where we through various kinds of participatory exercises sort of do this kind of ontological clarification look at our differences and then and then bring them into alignment so i'm going to start by looking naming the ecology that we're facing and the factors naming social and cultural assets that are potentially important and then starting to couple them together with some particular tangles of wicked problems and finally try to focus on a couple key sort of sensitive intervention points as some people are saying um so so my presentation is going to be very broad not deep i'm primarily focusing on what the Appalachian Regional Commission calls north central central and south central Appalachia which i will call central Appalachia and at co-impacted areas partly because there are profound changes underway and there are many different realities that are contradictory and emergent possibilities that could be quite astonishing so let's start with looking at at the at this region as ecologically and angled together in this slide are two very different things one is the cultural framework that the nation has put on Appalachia as the point of extraction and simultaneously you can also look at Appalachia as this really remarkable region ecologically that has particular significance in the 21st century in an era of climate change and what i would propose is that with all the stereotyping of Appalachian the portrayal of it is a problem region when you work with local people to do asset-based sort of cultural reimagining and bring them together with ecologists you find flickering there a very different ecological a very different regional identity and so it's we there is a desperate need for scholarly support in documenting these alternatives if you look at the climate stressors that we face water scarcity extreme weather events of course the need to sequester carbon the dangers of climate migration both human and non-human and the need to face out long supply chains Appalachia has remarkable assets to provide it's it's the water tariff or the country think about what are we are sent the century would be without the those mountains stopping the the moisture it we we and in this presentation i've tried to identify areas where we really need scholarly support and clarification the capacity for the the forests and the soils of Appalachia to function as carbon sinks is very unclear and many of the studies are not engaging the very gated terrain this would be an ideal citizen science project if we could find a sort of broad collaboration and then if this area does provide these kinds of services are there new kinds of policy frameworks that could be tied to the this is a national service that Appalachia is providing by by by being a carbon sink now there are many dangers here but but this is part of the potential sort of emerging identity the other thing is that climate change is already affecting American agriculture in that pattern what kind of new agroforestry niches might appear as supply chains shorten and could Appalachia of the 21st century become more like Appalachia of the 19th century which was a food basket in many ways for for for the U.S. and then finally this this mountain range with its rumble terrain is is is a global resource for climate refugia and Lucy Braun in the early famously described it as the mother forest because during various glaciation it was where both flora and fauna found refuge and and and repopulated north america so but the the the much more research needs to be done and again this is very very gated research so this is a way in which they're they're might connecting some of the climate mitigation with the energy transition in Appalachia is something that i think would be of more interest than many people suspect to communities that are working on just transition there's stereotypes about sort of Appalachian mindsets it's it's not an area that's distinguished for its it's renewable it's potential for renewable energy although possibly wind power and micro hydro but but but this there's been because of the regional identification with with coal and gas it's there's only been two surveys of of of the regional capacity i want to talk now about some of this civic and social assets in the region and again this this is the kind of look of history that is is often not very visible to the outside there's a rich and layered history of of of social movements from the labor struggles to the environmental justice movements and they'd have a particular sensibility that combines the kind of working class rural connection to care for the land with economic justice this photo is comes from Anne Lewis's wonderful film to save the land and people where women played a very important role in in in fighting strip mining and of course a Highlander center continues to play a very important role started in 1932 as a labor education center it was a key site for civil rights movement of the 1950s and 60s and from its beginning it was inspired by the Danish Folk School movement and so participatory action research and popular education has been really central to that mission and integral to much of the many of the social movements in in in the region and there's rich but very gated traditionally ecological knowledge this is from a wonderful collection by the folklorist Mary Hufford it's called Tending the Commons in documenting forest-based livelihoods so let's talk now about some of the the wicked problems of the of the coupled human and and ecological systems and in it's been one of our goals is to try to better integrate some of the new literatures on the resource curse internationally into which many of which are focused on greenfield development into really looking seriously getting a realistic look at at the old old resource curses in in that are often less visible in in America and these are the factors that just jump out as deeply entrenched ruts in the in the path of development in in Appalachia if you look at public revenues from the east to the west in the U.S. there there's been improvement as new development has happened but what we have in Appalachia which is core to the situation now is incredibly badly designed public revenue structures and the so that the severance monies that were only really started to be collected in the 70s and 80s in significant ways contributed to what I call a kind of fiscal diabetes where you have this sort of flood of of energy coming into a system with local governments that are unable to really handle the resources coming in doing the boom periods and then no no buffering against the the bust but there's been much too little attention to the connection between finance and coal and extraction in general in the in the 18th and 19th century so that before the you know 1910s the Appalachian region in many ways was sort of the wall street for the eastern seaboard and land speculation there sort of provided the old money for much much of the much of the east and those structures the the land holding companies and the layering of rights and ownership of land are inadequately studied and there's an extraordinary lack of transparency in information both about land and and revenues because of the the kind of federal system we have of a very siloed and fragmented governance and increasingly I feel like we really need to think about this situation of an entrenched resource curse that in some ways is sort of invisible in the larger conversation I mean there's been a kind of reinstatement of those sort of cultures of poverty framework here that's blaming the region in some ways for for for these problems I'm wondering about and again this would be helpful to to have some pondering of about considering this something like an energy debt between the nation and the region and thinking through what that might mean because you can make very direct connections between the social impacts over a hundred years that are now measurable in in in the region and the the wealth that of the of the country now on a on a positive side the the the sort of civic labor that Julia was talking about this incredible sort of ad hoc stepping into the breach of regulatory failure is vividly is is visible in several moments in the in the late 70s after devastating floods when in some of these counties half of the people were homeless the Highlander Center organized a whole series of local community meetings and they did what they called root cause analysis really looking down to the underlying problems and people said it's land land ownership so that led to one of the first really big participatory action research studies it was a groundbreaking citizen science to see who owns Appalachia hundreds of people went to the county courthouses got the records and it was processed by folks in local reach in local universities and found this shocking land inequality basically 25 percent of the land is available to to residents who local people in in most of these counties so this pattern of land inequality is can be still seen in deep inequality local inequality within these counties this shows the the ratio of income of the top 20 percent to the to the bottom 20 percent which clearly shows a two-tier class society and in this situation the power of local elites is is is endemic to the system so it's sometimes easy to look at some of these counties and see that governance problem is a problem of corruption which is there or a problem of cronyism or whatever but the underlying fact is when you have this kind of deep local inequality it it you get a a situation that is it's very hard to to assess or measure but a disconnection among many people and there've been some targeted studies of social trust shannon bell has done a lovely piece where she's shown how social trust it collapses at ways of conflict like when with some of the union struggles and you can sort of see that as layered political trauma but look at voter turnout in the in the 1960s this region actually had some of the highest voter turnout rates and in in in the country and then the kind of underinvestment in in public goods and services like education coupled with the sticky waves wages phenomenon of people not necessarily feeling the need to go ahead and get education so you get this strange paradox of too much government and too little government with a high dependence in many of these counties on distribution so power relations actually are structured more by control over the downward distribution of government goods than they are by the coal mining jobs or something like that and Wayne Coombs has just developed he directed substance abuse programs in West Virginia for many years and he's developing this model of he calls um of analyzing drug deaths and abuse as as as post and the role of the the the cumulative effect in a region that has experienced this much mining of smacra um is really remarkable because smacra essentially despite the intent of the law lacks triggers to connect the agency is responsible for economic development with the agency is responsible for reclamation um and this fragmentation of government is now coming into visibility in really dramatic ways and i think the next 10 15 years is going to see some even more shocking things especially in things like the collapse of public water systems that were put in with no long-term planning to mountainous areas that freeze in the winter at high expense and with um sort of boon bus waves of public funding for water systems that have to be maintained by counties without expertise um and so in this situation this sounds like a very dire picture let me say it's it's a strange time to be doing the work i do because i you know i'm coming coming here from Kentucky and i stopped off at a bunch of different places where we have various projects there's there's a feeling of hope afoot and it feels like this system i just described is fragile and building off of what Julia was saying i would like to argue that it's fragile because a lot of the um wicked problems came from a particular kind of rigidity in interscaler relationships between local decision making and and higher levels of decision making and there's a pent up rage of course we've seen that in various elections but also especially among young people an openness to really radical kinds of change and so i feel that if we could develop the kinds of broader frameworks for collaborative research that are cross-sectoral as Julia's describing and if we could really refine our methodologies for connecting local participatory research with scholarly tasks that actually support the direction of the problem solving i think we could see a kind of breakthrough like you know water breaking through the ice but it requires long-term stable robust horizontal regional linkages between local projects intergenerational conversations participatory action research and interagency cooperation which is probably the hardest so let me just give you some examples of projects that are having an impact the Highlander Center ever evolving has developed over the last couple years that Appalachian Economic Transition Fellowship where these young people spread out across the country and they work per year with the local grassroots project but they get together every month and part of this is an emotional and a cultural process of social learning for very intense sharing and community. Central Appalachian Network is a knowledge sharing network among people that are doing transition projects. Appalachian Voices has just started this good solar strategy to setting up micro demonstration centers hoping that will sort of spread out and this is one of my favorites and i was very involved with this from about 2014 the Alliance for Appalachia which is primarily an advocacy group their role is to connect grassroots works with federal policy have developed this method which i think is a very valuable research method participatory research method that they call agency mapping and about half of the participatory action research they do is trying to understand government in all its labyrinthine complexity and there's a great fascination with the AML fund which is sort of an accident it's become sort of the equivalent of a sovereign wealth fund but by an accident congress just didn't keep appropriating money so now there's several billions of dollars so they decided well let's really try to understand this so two of the Appalachian the Highlander Fellows took that on and we thought oh well we'll figure this out and do well this report which was supposed to be a popular education curriculum to go on the road is 175 pages that's how complicated this is it's a wonderful report and it set up relationships with various federal officials because it was such they did such a good job that they have become quite effectively involved in lobbying for the Reclaim Act which this morning was just introduced in the House Committee on Natural Resources and finally might begin to heal the deep flaw of SMACRA which is it requires that economic plans get connected to the reclamation and it requires participation citizen public participation now that's still very vague and this is again where scholarly input and especially students could help I'm part of a of a big group mostly centered in the University of Kentucky but with involvement of regional many regional colleges and universities and citizens to redo the Appalachian land ownership study which is a gargantuan task and we are just doing wonderful local projects participatory mapping to capture the intricacies of what people have decided to call the land matrix which is everything that maintains land equality including webs of power money public revenues policies and mindsets and values which came from one of our events and lots of power mapping with young people here we're doing stakeholder assessment and finding some very surprising pictures in terms of land scenarios at the local level and building solidarity again the emotional aspect of this stories of place project has spun off and it's it's very much an oral history of of land but is we're starting to add a climate dimension to this so to sum up all of these projects that give me hope um are attempting to grapple with the reality of multi-causal complex systems by building cross-scaler and cross-sectoral webs of connectivity and trying to do this in a way that makes that they can create enough durability to address the the timeframes within which that solutions actually require which is you know you know it requires the kind of investment that Highlander Center has had decades so it's thank you so much for this chance to have a sort of a conversation between the region and the nation and then other regions we have a few minutes for questions and answers and then at 2 45 we'll take a break so that we can all be ready to go when our remote speaker comes on at three o'clock um who has a question Glenn now I can get on I want to thank Julia and Betsy for two really excellent talks and I mean the the thoughts that they're kind of running through my head now I really can't control them but you know I think about your talks and also thinking about some of the geographer Michael Watts work on energy the oil industry its impact in Nigeria for example you know that putting that all together so this was sort of what role does energy maybe alternative energies play in these rural things and essentially all I've really seen is that energy extraction most of these areas have done nothing for those areas because the capital that's accrued from that then goes to other regions so it built it built New York for example right and in California it helped build Los Angeles and and you know built Dallas and and all of that but it's not doing anything for them it's a short term thing and if you think about it then they're sort of well we'll revitalize coal I don't think that would do much in the long run because they don't retain the capital and they don't retain the capacity to build something new from there and so when I think about this citing wind or citing solar in these places which I was described to me putting solar in the Imperial Valley of California would be giving job to people who basically clean windows so that is cleaning the top of the panel right where those facilities are owned by someone someplace else are owned offshore even it's not going to really do much it's going to even have less local employment and the capital accrued from it is not going to build a sustainable economy there so this is this is really a wicked problem that goes deep beyond where transmission lines are where we have solar energy and things like this this is a problem that really asks us to look at basic regulatory structure of of how capital is generated here and so I have a million things just running through my mind I want to thank you for stimulating that although I'm going to have a hard time sleeping tonight yeah it every time I come to an east coast city I look around for the timber and the wealth of Appalachia and at some point we're not going to get beyond these wicked problems so we have a national conversation about this because there is a very direct energy debt one of our projects that we're considering with the stories of place where we're documenting the oral histories of particular places but along with that the layers of land ownership in much of Central Appalachia especially West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky the land is actually held by land holding companies which are kind of like heritage artisanal legal entities you know it's like particular families and in particular cities and so we're going to reach out to those families in a way very similar to with plantations you know where enslaved people and plantation owners were brought together and these are this is the old money of the east and say let's have a conversation and so one hope is that with the stories of place project we can have artists in Kentucky and poets and photographers document the biodiversity document the devastation and then maybe have a traveling art exhibit that brings story and statistics together and then have that conversation I the language of reparations doesn't feel adequate but maybe if we have a deeper national conversation other ideas would come as the energy debt is as close as I can get yeah I'd like to again thank you they're both great talks I do think there's some commonalities I know from the Powder River Basin contracts for long-term power purchasing to California which you know ended a while ago when California decided they weren't going to ever even import anything more carbon-intensive than natural gas and now they're not even going to import renewables from outside the state boundaries so just the vulnerabilities when you're going to have a future that's dependent upon these contractual relationships I love the tracking ownership of land and all of the linkages and supply chains I think that's very powerful when you get at the REITs the real estate investment trusts and people who have I mean grandchildren who've inherited shares and stocks and investments that have no idea what they are that the impacts of those investments are having I know that the taxation of property is you know highly highly contested political hot potato but that is a that is a lever and in Georgia we're always talking about should the acres of forest you know be more or less taxed and depends on what the forests are used for and whole debate about that but you could have a debate on these communities about raising taxes so have you have those debates been carried out about property taxation I guess it's only for both of you you know um that's yes people are talking about property taxes quite a bit it's a very like many aspects of natural resource policy it's a sort of a it's a technical issue I mean maybe seems more technical than it actually is but most of us don't have much fiscal literacy so when you're talking about small local governments the those who are face a crisis suddenly will begin to understand fiscal policy really well but that doesn't always translate into political will to change the system and I could go on and on because fiscal policy is a big part of what we do and how we think about things but yes it's an important question for the last 20 years these communities have been deeply divided there's been a new level of bitterness that is complicated and so that's a hard conversation to have it is appearing though in the new pattern of contestation over public services like the the teacher strikes and again that's where you feel like the system is could shift really quickly and people are starting to connect the dots between the problems to paying teachers and and these other issues yeah actually I had a different question but you you raised another question in my mind so West Virginia is always a little bit of an enigma to me I visited there a few times it used to be you know before even the term blue but it used to be one of the bluestates and now it's like you know bright brilliant red uh at least in the last in 2016 so like what was the process you know can you describe that sort of I assume embedded in some of the the issues you're talking about and then you just kind of illustrated that this maybe this possibilities of flip I don't want to get into politics per se in terms of like you know 2020 but like what happened there and how does that is there any explanation from that to sort of you know talk about larger changes so on the news reports it looks very red because those that's the percentage of people who voted who won so but if you if you include the people who voted for no one and essentially they didn't vote then it's it's not it hasn't it so we've done a comparison in Kentucky we haven't done West Virginia of coal counties to the rest of the state eastern Kentucky had such low rates of voting that the people who did vote made the the state look redder than it is compared to other rural places and you had these interesting pockets of um burning wipeouts you know it was just sort of dramatic like the equivalent of college towns that there was something very appealing about Bernie Sanders in in many of these counties now it there there is a lot of appeal people are angry and disaffected and so there there's you know politicians who communicate that who communicate that there's something seriously wrong do have a kind of sway and and politics is very bitter and there's a level of fear that dominates local politics i would just add that there is a so when you think about some of the photographs that i showed and just how unpopulated some of the rural areas are um there's there's a bit of a vacuum so when we get this sort of big cultural division between urban and rural areas what it what's emerging to fill that space in rural areas is a really loud voice from a pretty strident set of politics and we see that a lot now when local governments have a problem they want to solve some of the radical right groups are there with networks and resources this is both through social media but literally being willing to travel to the county to help them write an ordinance that sort of reinforces this kind of fear-based perspective and that's about a failure i think on the part of the rest of us to figure out how to engage in those places okay well that's an interesting way to pause let's take a let's take a short break and let's be back here at three o'clock i'm going to cut off our break discussion and lead us into the rest of our session we're going to have a presentation by Dustin Mulvaney and then we'll have a few minutes for a Q&A just with him and then we have a further hour after that to continue our discussion and there's plenty to talk about i can tell so um Dustin do we have you on the line yeah i'm here i can hear everyone loud and clear and i even saw even saw some of the presentations this morning when i was uh multitasking while in the classroom so oh great that's morning your time let me do a quick introduction of you and then we'll turn it over to you so dr. Dustin Mulvaney is a faculty member in the environmental studies department at san jose state university that's in california and he can't join us today because of a conflict for the student thesis defense which we thought was was an acceptable excuse and we're meanwhile we're just delighted that he can join us and squeeze in this time to be with us remotely his research focuses on social and environmental dimensions of food and energy systems and in recent years his primary focus has been on energy commodity chains with an emphasis on the solar industry his recent research on solar energy commodity chains appears in his book solar power innovation sustainability and environmental justice which as i read was scheduled for release by the university of california press in april 2019 so as a quick break in the introduction is it out it is yes it's actually all right the number one new release on amazon in energy production and extraction fabulous okay so continuing with the introduction dr. you can't talk yet dr. Mulvaney's training was notably interdisciplinary his ds is in chemical engineering and his masters in environmental policy studies both from the new jersey institute of technology before heading to california for a phd in environmental studies at uc centa cruise he worked as a chemical process engineer for a fortune 500 chemical manufacturer in new jersey in west virginia and as a project engineer for a bio remediation startup at sites with mtbe spills that's a gasoline additive as a postdoc he had an nsf science technology society for fellowship in environmental science policy and management at uc berkeley he's published extensively and in addition to peer reviewed viewed journal articles and of course the book we just mentioned he has written a number of white papers edited reference volumes on green food green energy green technology green politics and served as an expert witness for the california public utilities commission he too has been active in the aag as secretary as treasurer secretary of the energy and environment specialty group and as a council member of the cultural and political ecology specialty group he's received a number of fellowships and awards including the dan lewton daniel lewton best paper award a few years ago of the aag's energy and environment specialty group so his title is land use conflict over solar farms green jobs and technological synergies in energy transitions okay it's all yours great well thank you very much for to speak with you and i i'm very much looking forward to re-listening to what i saw were really cool looking slides talking about other topics that i'm interested in learning more about so um today i'm going to talk about what i've noticed across the american west with the very california centric focus um around land use and and rural development and thinking about um some of the challenges that we're going to face as we start to deploy more and more solar right we have even california we haven't rolled out all the solar we're going to need to to decarbonize the grid so what that means is we're going to need a lot more land we're not need a lot more workers and um you know what does that actually mean for the future of of these landscapes in these communities so um next slide let's go right into this so one of the the first things to point out which may be obvious to most of us is that we're shifting from subterranean resource energy resources to ones that you have to collect more diffusely on the surface of the earth so what you're seeing in this picture is the desert sunlight solar farm that solar farm has about nine million solar panels and is about eight square miles generates about 550 gigawatts of power at peak and as you could tell that's joshua tree national park in the background as you could tell it's a pretty imposing it creates quite an imposition on on landscapes particularly this is uh cited on public lands where in california really the first big projects were being cited on public lands you can really describe california's rollout in three phases starting with um the eastern mojave desert and a lot of public lands there a little bit more south near the salt and sea in the colorado desert and then further west in the antelope valley area of the mojave desert and more recently there's been a lot more buildout in the central valley of california so we've seen somewhat of a geographic pattern there and part of the reason is solar developers are going for the closest access to transmission that's really the driver where projects are being put and then once you put enough projects in a certain area those those sites get overloaded in terms of how much power they could deliver and then they start having to curtail which means they start losing some of the economic benefit of having that big giant project next slide this project also has nine million solar panels but it's a little more spread out this is on the the carrizo plane near carrizo plane national monument which is the largest intact native grassland in california and when i was going to visit this site when it was being built a major concern from the community there was a loss of the rural character and as people came and visited this place which was very remote and seemed like it was lost to history when you go there it was it was a place that didn't seem like california if you've been to the urban places in california you seem like you're transported back into the west and the communities were very concerned about the imposition of these industrial facilities in their communities and from this picture you can see just the magnitude of of these these projects so again eight million solar about nine million solar panels about eight square miles taken up in this case it's a little more broken up because there was a concern about pronghorn antelope being able to move about this landscape so they're spaced out a little bit differently next slide this is the desert sunlight project when it was being built so the other aspect of this is you could see the the project involved the pretty heavy handed land use change they literally send eight to twelve scrapers out there and scrapes a landscape to make it a more homogeneous landscape get rid of the burrows first they remove or evict any endangered species or threatened or protected species and then they they really try to create a landscape that's easy to walk across and and can be driven across about having to worry about being stuck by a cactus or you know having a worker twist their ankle in a burrow or something like that and i'll come back to that because i think that land use practice is part of the reason that many of these projects have been opposed by so many many groups but the upshot here is a very significant land use and intensive land use change next slide this is a project called the Ivanpah solar project there's nothing there just yet but this is also showing you an impact from solar projects which is in this case they were required because there's rare plants to leave most of the landscape intact but you could see from the the image here of the cuts for the roads which will then be used to wash and first build and then wash the solar panels later on so in this case not all projects or this case this image shows that not all projects have such an intensive land use change but they all require a lot of roads and the same can be said for wind farms that's probably the biggest land use change associated with a wind farm is the actual building of all the roads to maintain the next slide this is the western mojave desert this is the antelope valley poppy reserve which you may have seen lots of pictures of where people are taking pictures of all these poppies that are in bloom this time of year and i've gone to this area for the last 10 years studying these solar projects and if you squint the lower picture you can kind of make out some of the the darker areas where there's actually giant solar farms now that weren't there many years ago so again a place where people go for its rural characteristics its wilderness characteristics to see these wildflowers suddenly has all these industrial facilities around them where they never had them before so this creates a little bit of frictions and creates some more land use controversy in these regions so next slide this is that item pile project that i showed you earlier with the road cuts when it was finalized this is a project that we probably will not see anymore of in california and i'd be surprised if we see any more in the american west anywhere these are solar power towers and they've had some pretty serious issues with mitigating the impact from avian species what happens in this they're using mirrors to focus light on a receiver at the top and when they put this plant in standby mode they raise the heat up it's about it's over 2000 degrees temperature they they create basically a halo of heat above the the receivers that you see at the top of the screen on the top of the tower and um this project has i think the last count was somewhere around 2300 or 2500 avian species lost i'm sorry individual animals lost every year from partly through collisions with the mirrors but also by flying through that heat halo fish and wildlife has a new term it's called a streamer and that's a bird that flies through the heat and they basically disintegrates next slide the desert tortoise was one of the species that was prominently featured in that ivenpah solar project there were some issues with counting it's very hard to count desert tortoises they spend such a large portion of their time underground and they're hard to see because they kind of look like rocks sometimes this project was built in and they had to translocate somewhere near 150 individual tortoises they actually had to build a nursery for tortoises because they had to overwinter them there and the the translocation of the tortoises coupled with the mitigations associated with the avian and bat species that had a management plan in place and there's actually a rare plant that needed a special management plan this cost about 52 million dollars just to mitigate for this project is a two billion dollar project so we'll maybe have dropped in the bucket of overall but um certainly created jobs you had people out there biologists and and conservationists and you can have lawyers at one point involved with this project so um but my point here though is that they're the challenge of putting large projects where you're they're somewhat sprawling right there's a term that nature conservancy uses called energy sprawl um poses specific challenges for a lot of species um as well as uh individual animals and things like that wildlife in general next slide San Joaquin kit fox this one was interesting story so this is Carrizo Plain National Monument the picture I showed you in the beginning the topaz solar project this is i'm sorry it's on the edge of Carrizo Plain National Monument not in it um this project they actually again spent quite a bit of money figuring out how many kit foxes were on site there have been a couple reports that this has actually been somewhat of a success story where they've actually been able to co-exist in this particular landscape with the solar farms they built little kit fox dens within the solar plant where they're able to kind of co-mingle with the solar panels and and leave without being trapped by coyotes and such there've been some projects that have been actually very bad for the kit fox there's one in the Colorado desert that um when during the eviction process they used coyote urine and that coyote urine transferred kit fox uh distempered to the kit fox population for the first time that recorded so so there's been challenges with that particular species next slide this is another uh species that requires mitigation usually for solar projects now there's been I mentioned a shift toward the central valley of California where the land is a little bit more degraded and you have the opportunity to build on marginal marginal farmland or in some cases prime farmland but farm bureau does not like to farm anything losing any prime farmland in california um sorry about that um so the the issue here is you need forage habitat for the Swainsons hawk which another species that has special status in california and for every acre that you develop associated with a solar farm you might have to go out and acquire mitigation lands so there's more economic activity there which is the purchase of lands for mitigation in um that might then be foraging habitat for these species I put this press release at the bottom to show um one of the challenges with that which is that one county in california received a lot of money from a solar developer because of the mitigations and then they rolled it into their general fund and we're not sure that that money's actually going to get spent on that species now so there's a lawsuit um that's been launched I'm not sure with the current statuses but it has not been resolved yet so in some cases you have mitigations that don't actually end up mitigating anything if your projects are supposed next slide the loss of the rural characters another issue is somewhat of an aesthetic issue but if you think also about why people go out to these places for the amenity values you know that could actually be an economic issue as well as you transform open and wild spaces into industrialized spaces you could create issues there this is the salorian valley this is a space between mojave preserve and in death valley national monument which is i'm sorry national park which has been very important corridor for species moving between both of those landscapes this is a spot where the the solar project solar and wind project actually combined was proposed on this site and the the beer of land management actually rejected this project this is one that was not this is a space that was never developed for solar but was controversial for quite a while because the project was proposed and and it almost seemed like the project was going to happen next slide the other issue you face with developing land out in the american west is uncovering lots of sacred places places that are important to native americans that have cultural resources this is um in blithe california where some intaglios were damaged by a solar project road that was hunting through next slide you can see that on the left there those are pictures of a geoglyph that was damaged for the construction of the blithe solar project i remember walking a site with a historian of native americans named alfredo fegaroa and he took me up to the top of this little hilltop and pointed at a solar project called the genesis project that's on this you could see it described in the lower right corner there you know a year before this le times article came out he pointed to that spot and said that that's that's where my oh my my ancestors live you know there's a watering hole on that site and everywhere that there's a watering hole there's cremation sites and artifacts and things like that and that's what in fact happened in this case they had to actually coordinate off part of that solar project because of the cultural resource impacts next slide water use we can compare it to natural gas and coal and other resources and it looks pretty good from an energy perspective but these solar projects are usually in very arid areas so and often they're dependent on groundwater and there's a lot of wells that are we have a paper right now that we're about to finalize when we counted wells that were dropped for solar projects and water use this is a smaller sample that got published in the journal land use science a few years ago last year where we looked at water use and from this the upshot from this is that land use practice that I described earlier where they basically scraped the land and damaged the any any biological organisms on top does become a dust nuisance and in fact the construction is where most of the water use is even on these pv projects for dust control to comply with the clean air act we've had projects where there's car pile-ups in in antelope valley we have projects that get shut down for dust nuisance so these are things that you know could be fixed through policy but haven't quite been implemented fully in practice yet next slide this is the Penoche Valley this is an area also that was um took about 10 years to build this project from when it was proposed partly because of some endangered species that lived on site including kit fox um blunt nose leopard lizard some other uh species that are pretty much stop building projects if you're finding these species types of species you could see here the rural amenities also factored into this and this was not prime farmland this is grazing land but as i mentioned earlier the farm bureau has said on several occasions they were very concerned about the role of big solar projects taking up prime farmland in california because that's obviously a major agricultural state next slide batteries so as we're rolling out more solar projects we are starting to see more batteries this is not a mine that produces batteries but this is a mine right above that ivenpaw project i mentioned earlier that produces rare earth elements which is also critical for certain kinds of clean energy technology such as wind turbines and such and this is associated obviously mining activity mining activity it's very challenging for water and for land and all of the things that you you're familiar with this is by the molly corp mine next slide placer claims in nevada there's over i think it's not 14 000 placer claims in nevada to evaporate for lithium brines essentially for batteries and here you can see in nevada has the whole system they have the potential lithium source they don't have all the metals but they have the lithium source they have the gigafactory which is some it's it's a bit suburban it's almost in the rural areas of of sparks nevada it's not quite in the city of sparks so it is somewhat outside of the the region in the yellow pine solar project is a proposed solar project it's going to have a lot of battery storage in nevada so again more extractive industries more land use change from solar but accompanied with some job growth as well next slide this is just to show you what it looks like in south america when you extract lithium brines these are all evaporation pines that have been built and if you squint it's a pretty high resolution photo so but you have to squint you can actually see all the wells where they they the impact isn't just where you're seeing the ponds if you look throughout that landscape you could see roads you could see wells that are being dug that are they affect groundwater again when you're pulling water when you're pulling water out of the desert often you're pulling fossil ground water out of the desert and that's lowering the groundwater tables and my understanding speaking with some colleagues that there are some indigenous communities in and around here whose water may have been affected already by declining water tables next slide but the bright side is we're creating lots of opportunity with these with these with these industries you could see photovoltaic installer here and i don't know if they're breaking apart the industrial projects versus the rooftop installers but it's a pretty well-paying job and it's the highest growing occupation according to bureau labor statistics right now so that that's kind of an economic driver for what for what's going on here or maybe it's an economic side effect of what's actually happening here you can look down below this is showing you how many jobs per megawatt installed for different kinds of solar deployment scenarios so utility scale projects are generating about 2.4 jobs per megawatt residential projects are generating almost five jobs per megawatt there so there's a pretty big difference almost twice as many jobs when you're doing rooftop you can imagine it's much more complicated you have ladders involved and roofs are different and those utility projects as i showed you they're pretty much homogenous landscapes where it's pretty easy to get people moving around next slide this is perhaps an area i thought this is an interesting thing to put in here into the conversation they the solar industry does have difficulty hiring in these places so we're talking about projects being built out in rural areas this is a study from a website i found called solar wake up it's a solar job census and they asked employers what are the challenges you have in terms of hiring people in this space and lack of technical i'm sorry lack of experience or technical knowledge turns out to be the the predominant factor for and i guess you could lump in insufficient qualifications really into that same category in some ways into the challenges that these industries face as they do move into rural areas so it kind of speaks to need for job training and more education around you know or technical training and things like that in these areas next slide with those jobs however have come some challenges in california and again this is a very california focused thing where we have something called valley fever it's caused by a fungal-borne pathogen that's in soil when you have high levels of disturbance you potentially get exposure to valley fever and these are two centers for disease control studies looking at two different solar farms one in monoray county and the drier part of monoray county inland and then one out in at the topaz solar farm which was the project i mentioned earlier on the carrizo plane here you had workers they said it was partly because they weren't wearing masks probably but two pretty severe outbreaks of valley fever amongst workers working on these sites next slide so i have this word technological or technological synergies in my slides i should talk about that for a minute and this is something i i've borrowed from dr rebecca hernandez from the university california davis who does really fantastic work trains wonderful graduate students to do similar work on land use change from solar and looking at benefits and things like that i'll just point you to the left hand slide the left part of the slide this is epa's repowering america's lands program which is basically looking at brownfields abandoned landfills abandoned mines requisites superfund sites as opportunities to put solar and they did a process of screening these access to transmission flatness slope all these things and you could see from this image it doesn't have the numbers but that from from the statement below 1.7 million acres are available from the epa's repowering america's lands program that would basically be more than 12 times california's peak demand so there's no shortage of disturbed lands and if you actually look at a lot of those abandoned landfills specifically those are a lot in the rural areas of california so you have opportunities to turn a lot of these areas into power plants essentially and maybe the job creation isn't the number one local benefit derived by these communities but certainly the sales tax on that electricity could be pretty hefty and help a lot of these communities next slide agrivoltaics another opportunity we might have in the central valley of california where you can kind of co have co-existing solar farms and either animal agriculture or in the upper left hand side you could see greenhouse as they put solar panels over or in the the sides of this picture to the upper right you could see you know in this case i don't actually know what tech crop is but it's something that they're obviously using a tractor on next slide and then something that we've been exploring or having conversations about we're hoping to get some funding for at some point but the national renewable energy lab is also doing similar work i just saw a paper that came out yesterday is enhancing these sites for ecosystem services so as solar farms roll out in the central valley you have almond orchards that require apiaries and honeybees be installed and when a solar plant comes across the street and basically removes all the vegetation it basically creates unhappy neighbors right a situation where you might even have that kind of land use conflict with isn't really the wildlife but is actually really agricultural production they don't people don't want to dust nuisance as their neighbor they don't want their trees covered in dust so the idea is to restore these sites to be more ecologically or agro ecologically friendly maybe perhaps install pollinators in them we also know that from vegetation from the transpiration from the photosynthesis that they actually cool the solar panels and that makes them operate a little more efficiently so there's actually a co-benefit there next slide and you can see in the lower corner there that's from a startup company that's trying to promote this idea by actually selling honey that they've produced within the solar farm in this case so again co-use of land i think the advantage that solar has that none of our energy technologies have is that you can actually put it on top of other things they could actually you can have dual use of land and that's a big benefit we just don't have the incentives right now or necessarily the the research findings to support the argument for for making this co-habitation more common because again you'll drive around like i mentioned i was out in the desert last week and or two weeks ago and i was seeing solar projects i'd never seen before and they were doing the same old thing about the boulders and scraping the land and potentially creating land use conflict next slide that's it i'm done good thank you i hope you guys have uh some thoughts to share with me or think or criticism so thank you great thank you so much that was quite interesting um what questions do we have for Dustin okay yeah thanks that was a really really good talk really uh i learned a lot and enjoyed it even though i've seen a lot of the things that you you just showed us in terms of facilities so here's here's a sort of interesting or a question for you is the siting of these things one is all those those sites in the desert and you didn't mention this but i know it's important they all require transmission of that power into areas where it's going to be consumed and the building of those transmission lines and then of course where they cross flammable landscapes that's a huge problem that that really extends the the negative impacts and you did show some of the agrivoltaics and we have areas like along the west side of the San Joaquin River valley which are really actually because of soil hopeless for agriculture and yet they and they already have transmission lines and things like that why has there been such a focus on using these uh using the desert lands and stuff like that aside from the fact maybe they have a little bit higher sunlight and all that rather than going into some of these brownfield sites or or or form agricultural sites which is simply not not good for agriculture do you think that's shifting and do you think that has something to do with with capital you know you can get this land for free you can use it for free you don't have to worry about the people that are there because no people are living there so it's minimal benefits to anybody basically but it maximizes profit i just just wonder what you might want to say on that i absolutely have some ideas on that so yeah absolutely the main driver why solar projects are where they are is transmission access to transmission they've had developers say if i do an interconnection study it's there's a tenfold there's a tenfold difference in cost sometimes between a good site and a bad site and i'm going to go with the good site um your point about public land so we've seen a very severe drop off in applications for public lands so i think the public land story is partly a historical artifact of the american recovery reinvestment act where lots of projects were put on public lands to have access to that funding on public lands they are allowed to fast track a project under an executive order passed under the bush administration that allows the fast tracking of energy projects on public lands so in order to have a shovel ready project a lot of projects were being proposed on public lands now not everybody got the fast track status and not every project received our funding in any way but the fact that they had started that process meant the ball was rolling and they continued to build out those projects and the cost i think now you know over the decade i've been following is power purchase agreement is fallen by 10 times meaning the cost of electricity to the utility is 10 times less from a solar project than it was 10 years ago and what that means is is the costs of some of these you know permitting mitigations the leases themselves may be creeping into um the overall picture and and that could be pushing project i mean that could be part of the reasons we're not seeing the build out in public lands there's also an issue with curtailment so we've over built in certain parts of the state we basically pay arizona to consume our excess solar electricity certain times of the day or the season and and people don't want to do that anymore so um that i mentioned rebecca hernan does his work one of her graduate students led a paper that rebecca's a co-author on it's about land sparing opportunities and it does talk about those selenium contaminated lands in the west central valley there's a couple issues with that one of them is the water issue which is that a lot of those landowners own the water rights and they're unwilling to accept it to to give the water rights along with the land so we got to figure out ways to make solar power plants operate without water that may make it a little easier we got to make we got to figure out how to get big agricultural interests to give up their water rights which sounds even more challenging than making a solar power plant operate with no water did i answer all the question i'm there's a couple parts yes thank you very much yeah dustin this is uh maryland brown i wanted to thank you for a great talk your photos are fabulous as they have been in all three talks today buying your book just to get you know the the graphics is probably going to be one of my motivators um i wanted to talk with you about your discussion and description about job creation and just put on kind of my skeptical hat from someone who's done a lot of employment assessments of energy investments uh when you do that assessment you've got to look at the jobs that are created when facilities are constructed and jobs that are required to um to run projects and then you've got to do some kind of present valuation maybe or you know somehow make comparisons along those lines and you'll find that the solar is not so very attractive when you look at the full life cycle um neither of course are many of the traditional other supply options like fossil or nuclear maybe maybe a little better but what's best of course is um energy efficiency energy efficiency is where you get most of the jobs that's a very high labor intensive relative to the cost of materials and it's just continuous this is always more that can be done it seems i just wonder uh if you've done any of that little more sophisticated you know input output direct and direct and do induce jobs and made some comparisons across different alternative energy supply and demand side options using those uh more sophisticated strategies the short answer is no but i have some thoughts on this but when i started working on this first of all i actually don't even believe this some of the stats i just showed you earlier which was the comparison between residential rooftop per megawatt and the utility scale per megawatt and the reason for that is that most of those jobs that are in the utility scale sector you might have you know a thousand construction jobs but you'll have five permanent jobs and whereas those residential sector you know those are usually more career oriented jobs like people aren't going and doing solar and then doing something else i mean some might be electricians doing multiple things but um they're usually doing solar all the time whereas like that ivenpaw project i showed you earlier that was built by bechtel using union labor but the union labor was bused out from las vegas every day or they stayed in prim once in a while they they'd be bused out for the week um and then they went on to build something else a bridge or something something different so it's really hard to pin down these job numbers and link them particularly the big construction project projects that require um you know that that workforce that's that's a bit different and more flexible um so there was a tool from enrel the national renewable energy labs called jedi i forget what it stands for with some economic development thing and they used to have the photovoltaic model on there and i fortunately was able to download one the last time it was up there but i noticed it's not up there anymore they have the other energy sectors and and i'm wondering why that is if they when i asked i wrote to them and said hey what happened to your your solar job calculator because they did that they basically say oh you create construction jobs then you have the truck the guy is selling food and you create all these kind of added you have all these adders um and they basically said the data were too old so i think that's another area that we maybe you know even this job census report that i i put together right i put into this talk that was put together by that solar wake-up site um it's not doing a sophisticated enough analysis to be able to parse the different kinds of ways we might roll this technology out the different combinations the different size and magnitude location so i i think that that's an important research need yeah the one um ultra sophisticated other perspective to jobs is that if you put in place a energy resource that's less expensive to meet energy service requirements that let's say energy efficiency you know being so cheap but also maybe a very cheap generation option like co-generation in industrial plants then the rates can decline and everyone can benefit they have more revenues that they can that they can spend because the you know they're able to redirect their income to other other assets they can buy and so they're all kind that's a that's a type of you know i mean get that in input output studies you've got to go through a computational general equilibrium model find out how the different energy resources balance each other when you insert something new and what's it going to do to prices both electricity as well as your generation your fossil fuels and other inputs and you know it takes a lot a whole lot you got to crank a lot of levers to get those final numbers but they can be very important i was able to estimate that for co-generation the fact that you could lower electricity costs had a bigger impact than almost anything else on jobs and the economy and that's just something you can't estimate very easily we do need Jedi to be reinstated or tools like that yeah most of the others the other technologies were there they just removed the photovoltaics so i'm not sure why the other technologies have better data but yeah that's important very important i think all that their data is very old all across the board in jedi um yeah if i could just one last thing on the jobs thing and it's not related any stuff i've talked about but last week we or i guess it's three weeks ago now we i represented before the california public utilities commission there's a memorandum of understanding between the energy commission public utilities commission cal recycle department of toxic substances control and the air resources board to come up with a plan for end-of-life solar because basically our last solar recycler in the state went bankrupt and they just sent it to a smelter so not everything was even being recovered but you know the silver was being recovered that's important so we've been trying to advocate for extended producer responsibility in the state um washington state has a law like that i actually wrote much of the text they had to withdraw it because i marked it up so much and had to resubmit it to their legislature new york state also has an extended producer responsibility just make sure it make sure that anybody who sells a solar panel in the state has to set aside money and that money can grow in an account and then that money is there to pay for recycling because right now california has no recycling of solar if you bring solar panels to a recycler the department of toxic substances control has advised them to turn it away so basically goes to landfill so that's the place we could create some jobs is at the end of life too so i'm sorry i interrupted someone about the task any question i was just saying we need to have those producer responsibility requirements for coal plants too okay let's have a question from bill and then i think we want to open this up more broadly yes hi dustin this is bill select you from city university of new york uh great talk i just you know our remit is sort of looking at energy you know energy transitions in rural america and you know obviously you spoke a lot on on the solar side is there and this is maybe a too big a question but can you give us a quick quick thumbnail like are there like the issues with wind i mean how you know what the differences are there key differences that we might want to consider as part of our discussion uh vis-a-vis a solar experience i mean some of the i know the environmental effects you know birds etc but are there other kind of key points that you know might be significantly different from solar in some ways i don't think so i mean in california most of the onland wind is built out like there's not any new there's very little wind being new wind being proposed right now so and i don't know what that would look like elsewhere it's very similar in the sense that it has um you know very few operators on site when you're there although i think there's a bit more repair that goes into those so there there could be more kind of um technical jobs associated with that for repairing and cleaning them um whereas solar panels are because there's no moving parts there's a little less um maintenance of them other than the washing and making sure that you replace broken ones and things like that um so that's a really good question and i'm i'm afraid i can't answer that maybe there's other experts here that can but um my my intuition is it's not that much different but okay great so so yeah quick quick so so for california wind is all built out i mean just a thumbnail sort of offshore okay good got it got it and how about other parts i mean like iowa you know texas etc a lot of other places seem to be at least you know promoting it on the surface meaning like you know they're that's what they're promoting but i don't know how much is how much of that is really uh you know real installation yeah and you the benefit that i think of that comes to mind in those parts of the country um because again california is a little bit different because a lot of the renewables are on public lands and i think that makes it a somewhat different animal um but when i read about ranchers getting together and forming a co-op to sell electricity in some ways it's similar to the honey story that i told that toward the end where you're basically creating additional revenue streams for particular land owners and i think that that's probably um one of the key economic impacts the the other being again a lot of uh a lot of sales tax gets generated through these because partly because the the electricity is somewhat expensive so in many ways um you know depending on how i guess some states don't have sales tax but um depending on how that structured um there could be benefits that way some states actually have exemptions for like california not allowed to have property tax i believe on on solar projects so something i had heard once i had not verified that but so that means that you don't necessarily always have tax benefits that circulate back into the economy but but sales tax is certainly a big piece of it i think the diablo canyon nuclear power plant in san josebispo at one point was providing over 50 of the tax base for that that area and sales tax for that whole county so so these big energy installations can have if not direct job impacts they certainly have other kinds of economic benefits that might go to schools and things like that great thanks okay let's um go ahead go ahead jackie i was going to say you might want to look at christian brandstrom's work he's um written a lot on texas um and i know the texas in oklahoma landscape are somewhat similar and i was just thinking about your like the the job thing a lot of times in oklahoma in texas there's also a shifting so his work kind of shows about the legacy effects and that actually the those ranchers getting together or mostly the corporate ranchers who can do these things it's often squeezing out the small farmers or the small ranchers which has a lot of actual local economic impacts because those large ranchers bring their stuff up on semi they're not buying local their children aren't in the school they're not necessarily investing in the tax base so there's there's other things and then in oklahoma there's a lot of fights with um native communities so the osage nation sued one conglomerate of those ranchers that got together to put in one of those um wind operations under the idea that they're destroying a sacred landscape also there's a big tourism base for the high plains and and the tall grass prairie and the bison and those kinds of things and so there's there's actually a lot of stuff in christian branch from would be a good person to look at yes great well yes great well great well i'm going to call in julia and then at this point let's have our discussion be open for participation by all of us with questions to anybody well i was just hi desa and it's julia hygrity um i just wanted to follow up on the fiscal piece because i think it's a pretty complicated question so the idea that there's a production generation tax that accrues locally that's pretty exceptional to california and most of the states that are trying to export energy are really struggling to figure out what a revenue stream looks like and even when you have good revenue policy at the state level you may not have distribution to local areas even if you have distribution to local areas they may be limited in their ability to save and invest that so it's a sort of multi-scalar system but i think i guess i i i just think we need to so maybe one other point on some interesting fiscal stuff um i mentioned my colleagues at university wyoming they're helping the state of wyoming think about their um fiscal policy because wyoming is maybe the nation's leader in sort of vulnerability current vulnerability to energy transitions and they would like to export a lot of wind and that's a challenging thing in these times and one of the things they found is that the new mexico which has one of the more aggressive tax regimes with respect to generating wind actually has the lowest production cost and one of the things that they do is enable local governments to bond to invest in wind projects which brings down the cost of capital and allows for a cheaper production cost even though they have a higher effective tax rate on those projects so it's kind of like down into the weeds but um i think yeah that's cool right well i could tell you more about it but i guess what i would suggest is that going back to glenn's comments earlier the idea that these big construction projects are going to create long-term economic benefits in the form of jobs or even taxes is kind of a flawed way to think about rural prosperity and what glenn urges us to think about is how can local places share in the property and the capital that actually is behind these things and there's a whole set of policy issues with respect to limits on community-owned property limits on local banking all those kinds of things that are in the way of that but i just we can and i totally agree with maryland's observations about the limits and ways to do complicated modeling about net economic benefits but i think when we're talking about rural places and benefits getting getting caught up in kind of the i o i o battles about how many direct and indirect jobs and how much tax revenue doesn't really capture the fundamental structural issue which is that local places don't own the capital that um is really prospering from building these things fantastic point yep i'm gonna keep that in mind really important yeah you can't look at local and and um uh out of territory ownership and imports of materials into the health you can't get at that but it underscores that the in my opinion the most advantageous solar for any local community is rooftop solar it's not the big solar farms and you know that's the battle to be played with now of course the utilities want to own the utility farms um and then there's a battle between whether the rooftop solar is yours or is at least you know all of that i think that's uh you know maybe for another day a really good topic but it has a lot of influence on um you were saying if you have a solar farm what are you displacing on a rooftop you're using land or whatever area that's you know already underutilized so there's a big advantage to that um i know we don't have quite enough rooftop space yet in the country to meet all of our needs even if it was all solar but it could go a long way yeah and it would be locally you know locally advantageous i would say but most of those solar delivers most of the solar companies putting rooftop solar on our local or at least within the state or regional yeah yeah the rooftop there's a couple studies that also show when you put roof when you put solar on a roof you actually reduce the heat gain that goes into the house and you can lower someone's air conditioning bill so there there are definitely some then and then there's some studies that suggest behavioral change some you know the in different directions some say you consume more some say you consume less because now you suddenly have a envelope of trying to keep that bill at zero so it kind of makes someone stay at a certain energy consumption more likely so i mean there's definitely questions and the fundamental challenges it goes right up against the the business model of the utilities and that's that's um that's something that many states have been grappling with for the last 10 years and some of these net metering debates and such so that's a really important point but the question is like how do you optimize both from you know that question about prosperity and benefits and the funny thing was i was studying these solar projects out in the Mojave desert realizing we're at a we have a housing crisis all these houses are underwater and i was like why can't you put all the solar why why are we building this two billion dollar solar project here we could put two billion dollars for the solar panels on people's rooftops make their houses more valuable lower their energy bills things like that and i don't think we i think i don't know we're not at the point where we're able to kind of come up with these idealized solutions in some ways so i'm not sure what the strategy to make that happen would be but but i think there are pieces moving forward on some of these like non grid or non-wires alternatives is a phrase people are using more and more especially in california where the point was raised earlier that it didn't address which is more transmission basically creates more fire risk right through the state and that's not something we want to necessarily do so so maybe there are new ways to think about future utility models where non-wires alternatives are built into something that benefits both the utility and the customer i'm not sure how that looks though um yeah i actually just to follow up on this i i was going to ask you about rooftop also um i live in vermont where we have a tremendous amount of rooftop solar and actually we're a lot of the former dairy farms dairies are having trouble but they have high transmission capability because of the electrical systems and dairies so a lot of the dairy farms have solar and we don't have dust we have a lot of rain so we don't have that kind of maintenance but it do you see action in california about moving to more urban systems you know i think about carports and as well as rooftops or other things were i mean in vermont we have sheep grazing underneath and you showed us the bees but it just seems like there's a lot of opportunity for for dual purpose and i wonder if there's much discussion happening at this time or if it's if the big utilities are really just controlling this the story in full disclosure i spent a lot of time at my grandmother's sister's dairy farm in the northeast kingdom of vermont milking cows when i was younger so i know all about yes um the answer is is sort of yeah i mean we're starting to see i mean in my own town i you know we have lots of parking lot even actually around here in san jaclar county silicon valley you're seeing more and more parking lots covered with solar and as we move toward more electric vehicles it just makes more sense to have that system more integrated and i think people are thinking about how to make that all work a little bit better like having i mean in your ideal situation you have parking lots covered with solar and you have cars underneath them and those cars are being charged by the solar or or maybe not fully but are those batteries in the cars are playing some sort of you know grid support pick up voltage sags and things like that that might happen on the electrical grid so people are thinking about it i mean there's there's some really incredible work happening at the national renewable energy labs and even pilot projects you know at the cpuc on trying to integrate some of these things so and i think people i think the story about how land use change or how much land it's going to take to decarbonize if we're going to have solar be a main backbone of that system people are realizing that there is more conversation now like when i first talked about this people were like who cares it's just wasteland out there and then i bring back these pictures and then now suddenly people get more interested and then they go out there and they're like how i was going camping this place i used to go camping is now a solar farm so um i think the story is traveling more and i think people are starting to think about that you know i i think what dominates the narrative is is utility scale is just so cheap and i think that that's the wrong way to be thinking about it because the question is cheap to who is what's cheap to the developer cheap to the rate payer not always the case and and i think that that's if we want to be thinking about how to get ourselves out of the conundrum we've created with energy crisis or market failures or whatever it is it's maybe it's the the quest for cheapness like odyssey in the first place maybe we should be paying a little bit more for our electricity and protecting low-income customers at the same time put that caveat in there well i don't want to sound like a broken record but i just think we also have to think about where the investment capital model is right so there's the whole thing about rate recovery but then investor-owned utilities have capital that they need to reinvest in facilities um and my understanding partly about the big buildout on public lands was not only because there were various administrative pushes for that but because of the way the production tax credit was established um which is essentially like a tax equity way for investment capital to find another source to return capital um so i think i don't know the answers but when we talk about distributed scale issues we want to think about um what's necessary to diminish the leverage that investment capital has at working at scale right now yeah i should make i mean i'm painting distributed as kind of a savior here but there was a big investigation into solar city about them jacking up prices because of you know they're backed by bank of america and that's providing their their liquidity so um yeah i think that that's something to be i'm certainly gonna be more tuned into that now thinking about it because i think it is a really important question so thank you julia for that hang on okay before we have bill's question we have a question from one of our online people and it's a follow-up to julia's comment in the canadian hydro projects i've been looking at there's a growing trend of profit-sharing agreements sometimes for the hydro projects and it just moves and sometimes for the industries that use the electricity but others have critiqued this kind of thing as enrolling local slash rural cultures and communities into neoliberalized production and exploitation of local and traditional resources and livelihoods how would you see this kind of profit-sharing approach in the spectrum of options for rural communities and i should note that these are often first nation lands and communities um well i think so profit-sharing is gets at the heart of the issue right which is like can can local places actually share in the returns on these things um betsey just whispered to me exactly what i was going to say which is that then you want to look at those mechanisms really carefully because um if the company's not making a profit then the community's not making a profit um pipelines which is so i don't know about the hydro projects at all um but you know pipelines have mostly been doing pretty well recently but anything that's in a you know trading in a globally based commodity is going to see real fluctuation and again there are these questions about um can communities set aside reserves to compensate for downturns in the cycle in in the american west many places are literally prohibited from establishing a reserve at the county level right you can't carry a positive balance from year to year so um i think that the philosophy is right and to be totally cliche the devil is in the details actually um it's a general question so are we ready for general questions okay well you know um i mean that all the talks and the conversation together are really great um and there's lots of these sort of threads about i mean was just mentioned um you know uh profit sharing and sort of community reserves and all these sort of you know a range of different things and i guess i i'm going to put on you know the committee hat i guess for a moment you know um you know i think we've illustrated well um the importance and the value of the geographic perspective on these kinds of questions so i think that's a broadly defined um you know that's that's kind of a given i guess the question i have um is connected to you know the question of policy and particularly federal policy like where are those windows i mean you know i mean i've always you know been chirping along here before you guys the you guys as speakers came in that you know there's been this retrenchment of federal policy and sort of like you know these a lot of these things were pushed and pressed you know in rural areas through uh federal initiatives you know coupled with you know a lot of capital investment but there's been this sort of retreat so you know is there are there particular places where federal policy could play a role or should play a role we mentioned public lands and i guess part of the other you know more even detailed question is you know with respect to this committee within the national academy the idea of like drawing in federal agencies to sort of be hey wow this is really interesting you know we want to kind of engage with these debates and you'll see what we can do you know vis-a-vis what else goes on in washington so are there any kind of that's a that's a broad big broad question um you know the federal policy angles that you know you think are just really so possible or so you know needed in certain spaces that the well who wants to take this one on i think i see betsy wiggling her finger toward the microphone i'm going to try to sort of dance around what you're saying first of all i want to explain why i've been texting and i've been back and forth with benham in kentucky and the solar panels are on the roof people have gone and looked so google is at fault so yeah and speaking of citizen science here and people are actually going out and looking at things just following up on your question about federal policy and the goals of this committee and i'm to thank you again for inviting me to be part of this it's been extremely helpful i wonder if it seems like in a lot of our conversations part of the problem is the gap between the intent of law and then what happens in administrative law as things get sort of as mary christina wood says parceled out between agencies and commodities um and on one hand we're hearing a lot of common themes and sort of common factors but the it's would it be possible to set up a sort of scholarly conversation as um as julia so wonderfully started with these ideas of frameworks about the the kind of indicators of planning like land use planning and local economic planning and sort of balancing all these factors and then bring in and set it up in such a way that we can bring in citizens who are experimenting with different kinds of planning to discuss the kinds of indicators that are being used to assess impacts and and sort of compare overarching legal and regulatory frameworks between commodities i mean for instance one of the things i'm thinking about is you know who owns the fun if many natural resources are actually nationally owned so if we if we said renewables also are owned by the nation and building renewables as part of our comet strategy then what does that fundamentally change the sort of legal framework around wealth generation from it i i don't even know where i'm going with that but um so i is there um it just feels like we need to um have more of a national conversation about what the platforms are to establish more of a common energy framework that can be open to local experimentation and conversations um i feel that there's quite a bit of possibility in the effort that was started the department of interior under president obama to join the u.s to the extractive industry transparency initiative and develop a very good portal that included renewables and other extractive commodities and sort of a suite of of data points that are have been internationally formulated to help people track the resource curse and that data portal is still up and functioning so that could possibly be a site from which to build out some of this this sort of cross regional conversation so that's a that's a very general question i'm wondering if either jillia or dustin would like also to talk about the federal policy question well i mean i guess just briefly that um there's nothing like a federal mandate to sort of bring about crisis and change right um and so when we had um the clean power plan we had suddenly a lot of scrambling and discussions among utilities that has largely abated um and we've let market we're letting the market do the work now to say hey these you know the costs of production of these resources is cheaper the fuel costs are less but that's different than a regulatory driven process and i think just to to broaden up from what betsy was offering so there's the regulatory drivers they're going to precipitate change and then there's sort of all the administrative law and practice and implementation part that really does have huge effects in places so if the reclaim act is successful in um being appropriated and and passed then there'll be lots of questions about whether it's implemented in a way that is beneficial to places um so and then you know there are still this question about being careful never to disconnect what's happening at the federal level with the state and local policies that are turned out to be really influential when you're just thinking about rural economies but also also sec regulations and and rules around bankruptcy i mean we're talking about billions of dollars of debt that were restructured that would have gone to you know reclamation of this massively important national project and companies that are now trading again on the new york stock exchange i'll i'll just offer up a couple um one of the mechanisms that that led to probably some of the the worst solar projects from a habitat perspective in terms of habitat loss and species having to be translocated or just temper being transferred to them was the BLM's mandate to develop public lands for renewable energy i think first of all that was interpreted as a mandate there's nowhere in the legislation that says mandate but um that basic i mean the rationale i get it it's like they've been giving the money to the fossil fuel and or they've been giving public lands the fossil fuel industry for so long we should get some too where the renewable energy industry were better than them but they're different landscapes they're different parts of the world and essentially that's what caused it causes bad decisions are you basically are removing money from the local communities because instead of a land owner and there are plenty of land it was funny i'd be driving around it says solar ready land is like the most common real estate sign you see out in that area and that means that land wasn't being sold that means that the the sales tax on the land purchase wasn't being kind of recouped in the local community and basically that money was going right into the federal the federal budget from leases and such so by that mandate dropping down not only did it cause all these ecological problems perhaps some political backlash because of the problems that the solar projects caused and third you're basically moving money directly back into the federal pockets as instead of circulating that in the local communities and not only that that meant that basically projects being competed that were competing you know it was you had some of the biggest most powerful companies getting private conversations with the interior secretary about who's going to get fast-tracked and who's going to get access to the air money and such so it kind of kind of created um i don't know it basically created a bunch of contradictions i think in in in the deployment or it could have been done differently i guess is the upshot there and then they under the obama administration that was the energy policy act of 2005 where that plm mandate is in and then under the obama administrations they doubled it and i have a graph it's not in my where do i have that graph i was going to put in the slides here there are about half of the projects that were proposed on public lands and even got all their permits that when they went all the way through the nipa process or if they're in california they get went through the sequel process or in some cases they had to do both um only half of them were built even though they got all their permits which is crazy because that means you put so many resources into the this evaluation think about all the resources that blm and fish and wildlife and all these agencies they're i you know i spoke into them they were like i was i instead of working on a habitat mitigation plan i've been working on for the last 10 years i suddenly got pulled off that project and was evaluating solar projects that were basically destroying habitat for these same species i mean what one point i meant to make on my desert tortoise picture and i'll shut up after this was that we spend more money on the grizzly bear bald eagle and gray wolf on the desert tortoise i'm sorry we spend more money on the desert tortoise than those other three species so and here we are creating a mechanism to destroy their habitat somewhere else so there's there's kind of something going at odds and just to finalize everything really the action seems to happen can i just make one really quick follow on deb and then one thing that i like to um remember is that we the energy transition is happening quickly and we are apparently decarbonizing at a rapid rate mostly due to market driven forces but it's not the coal production is going to persist into the future for quite some time so thinking about an opportunity to restructure the revenue opportunity around coal while it continues to exist in a way that provides for some transition for those places that aren't closing right now is a really important thing that i think could be supported at the federal level but also needs to take place in state policy so i have a question from online that i think might fit well into the to the discussion we've just been having um this seems to there seems to be a real need for incentives to accelerate green energy production but are there good policy examples of green energy incentives that include habitat protections not i have an idea here in it's not from um actually i think it did originate in legislation but it's basically in um Minnesota in their power purchase agreements they're they're required to do vegetation disclosures about what um basically how they're gonna how they're changing the landscape and their concern is pollinators and and things like that so so there's a case where you know state legislatures could pass a law saying you have to think about carbon debts you might create from land use change or you might have to think about species or or vegetation and in your contracting with with um you know private developers and such and perhaps even you don't even need legislation do that you could just have the the companies do that directly i mean it's a private contracting but whatever you want i guess um but that would be an example is is kind of screening for that and the problem is i think we have just become so obsessed with climate change we don't think about all these other issues we just like solar's good everywhere and we don't think about habitat we don't think about water use or some of these other things that are really important also to these areas okay um Marilyn yeah i wanted to segue off on the uh ownership of capital discussion for a minute you're looking at the picture here i think that's a gas plant i'm not sure but it's big and you know um over the past several centuries maybe 150 years or whatever it is um the technologies were such that the larger the plant the better the economy is justifying monopoly power and ownership of capital by small numbers of companies um but now we've had um you know the technology's been transformed and we can now do almost just as well with a highly distributed small scale energy uh facilities the possibilities uh are even multiplied more with the development of the sharing economy you know where you've got the ability to aggregate uh across um users and to use more of the capital that plants probably use to you know an average of plant is used something like 50 percent of the time um if you look at hour hour by hour um and you could have a plant that's used 100 percent of time with peer to peer sharing of electricity for instance i think that the biggest public need is for financing to allow that transition so that the ownership can be continued to transfer to smaller um scale um more distributed energy systems we can you can what do you mean by financing so in this case i would particularly like the public power model and that's not going to fit everywhere where it does exist um it offers a lot so for instance for uh rural electric cooperatives they can do on-bill financing i would call that an inclusive financing approach that is now um as long as you have a bill you know you don't even have to own your home you can um you can finance something which could be the solar on top of your your living unit uh now if you do own your home a city uh could offer property assess clean energy funds which are levied against your property your property bill so you can finance your investments through the longevity of your um your mortgage as another way the idea is to figure out how to make it um no more costly than it is for you to pay your current bill only your current bill will be partly the financing charge for your improvements and the ongoing costs of the system so i do think it's this type of um inclusive financing that's we need to work on i am very worried though about the the movement of the sharing economy to um not to ownership of the capital by everyone but to ownership by a different set of business intermediaries you know that would really lift the people who own homes they can offer air b and b and you know it's this whole different type of um beneficiaries who have capital it's not the millennials you know they don't want to participate and they don't necessarily want to own a car or a house and at some point it may come back to bite them they may find that they've been left out of all of the um you know profitable ways to to make money from the um from the resources that they have at their disposal they don't invest anything in this economy so but i think that i like the idea this inclusive financing as being a really important um challenge for governments at all levels yeah i kind of want to follow up on the capital thing and i also want to follow up some a caller mentioned the situation with first nations in canada and said there's something instructive there 60s and 70s there were a lot of major hydro projects in the james bay region north in kebakan in manitoba but also in anterio that really had one-sided agreements between the provincial entities crown corporations and the uh and the first nations that kind of came to a halt in 2004 when there was a court case of the haida in british columbia versus the province of british columbia principally the the ministry for forestry there and it was decided by the supreme court that indigenous peoples and first nations on their lands had to have you know complete say over in terms of these resource of extraction and environmental impacts etc and that led to a real slowdown in these negotiations some of them would take you know almost a decade nine years or more but it also led to situation where equity stakes and things like that or um how the development went was changed to protect cultural resources and things like that it made for a much messier surface for negotiating but in the end the first and it's not perfect as your caller mentioned but it did it is instructive and if we look at the states there's the navajo generating coal fire generating plant which is scheduled to be closed right that's going to have a massive impact massive impact on the hopi and the navajo and that but that was in a sense a supposed to be a driver for some economic resilience in in that area i think you know looking at those instances are can be instructive in some ways but in the other way that's different than uh private property private mineral rights ownership which you have in appellate chip mainly right and and they're they're confronted with a different issue so how do they how do they get equity stake how do they make money on that and and that's a that's a tricky one right i mean one thing i would i wonder about is the states states can have fees on how much oil is extracted a poor barrel cost right and california is very low some states are very high you know at the state level do we look at enemy energy surcharges and agreements that will increase capital flow to the producing regions or demand equity you know and that that's sort of out of our our system really doesn't like things like that and there's a natural resistance against taxes of any sort but you know honestly unless people in places like appellate chip take control of the resources they're you know that they'll be mining until there's no more coal or there's no more demand and then that's it there's not no one's going to do anything for them so i i do think the first nations and those things are are worth looking at but it's very different land ownership and i think that in many areas it has to be a different way we approach it because there's no sovereign rights for most of people that you talked about Betsy do we need to take a deep breath oh bill a little pile on uh so you know i'm looking at this very simply so i mean i'm you know i'm more of an urban guy so forgive me although my dissertation was on rural uh hazards chemical hazards so um you know a lot of the discussion that we've had he has focused on these sort of you know things like bankruptcy and financing like and real sort of elegant you know and even sort of indigenous you know uh land right questions and how to sort of maybe what i interpreted what you were saying is sort of translate some of those experiences to the appellation context or sort of you know writ large and really kind of um and i guess i'm you know maybe i'm not skeptical i'm maybe pessimistic or something or whatever you know i just like those things are i guess the question i have is you know for the for the rural experts here um you know how does that does the potential for progress and progressive you know politics i mean do you see it in the suite of these sort of kind of very uh at least as i interpret it quite simply kind of very um you know nuanced and sort of fairly sophisticated pieces of public policy when i hear all about like these really blunt instruments like a couple of days ago you know two trillion dollars for you know infrastructure that just sounds like a you know if that happens a giant glob of money to do something that it's going to be fairly you know incoherent in terms of what that might be spent on or even the green new deal which is also kind of a muddled kind of you know hazy vision of and you know and where does the rural kind of context fit into those you know that that tension between like very nuanced policies that are context specific and you raise the issue of place versus like these these seemingly unending like giant globs of policy that are slapped on that don't really connect to place well i'll start um we don't like globs we don't like globs of anything and i won't say anything about i think i think it's three trillion dollar infrastructure project um so one one thing that i see happening which is you know so incremental and um problem with being a world geographer is that we have nothing to say because we're such a small percentage of the population right it's like we can't we can't we can't talk about sort of significance of developments but um but out of crisis i think comes awakenings and so just to take this issue of kind of sovereign ownership and and some of the broad issues i laid out with respect to the limits that exist in policy with the ability for local governments to save money to make investments we're really seeing a resurgence of interest in the kinds of institutions you might associate with sort of great planes rural populism of you know kind of the early 20th century so interest in state-owned banks interest in local investment corporations a big surge in community foundations so then i would put on my other hat and just say and this is partly responding to what glenn said we have to be really careful about distinguishing what we're asking public revenue to do low and what we're asking local people to do right so i don't think we want these economies to be raising money to pay for the costs that remain on the landscape after development has happened um and that's a big problem with state a lot of the state severance tax kind of models is they pay for they they pay for the impact of development but they don't leave you with anything at the end um so then the question is what kinds of investment strategies exist that allow you even to hold money and then the question is what do you invest in um and i would say i mean i participate pretty actively in kind of the rural policy space and i don't think anyone has the answer to that question um and land reform would be a start but i don't think we're going to get land reform in the united states anytime soon and if we did do land reform in apalachia who would it go to right i mean you're american settlers that would be complicated um so thank you for allowing me that big picture kind of thing but i the the summary point is that um i think in the point of crisis people do become policy literate and one exciting thing is thinking about the ground up look at all the barriers there are to local retention of wealth that's it did you want also read to respond to that again this is all very contradictory and complex um so let me just sort of describe some of the conversations i'm hearing and there is an upsurgence of really quite radical thinking in some of the communities that i'm working with especially among young people so we're talking about people who have been displaced over generations and at the same time i don't want to romanticize this or exaggerate it but there is a way in which settler folks who have been here for some generations and based on the land and have sort of deeply embedded cultural traditions do have a cultural sense of sovereignty now this is in a very complicated and contested relationship with indigenous and native american groups and and i think that's a conversation that is just starting to happen now in in in the more progressive appalachian activism so that you know some some tribes are now in oklahoma who have historical connections to parts of appalachia and so there's a there's a great desire to establish very direct connections to talk about specific land and some of the archaeologists actually are doing that and part of the part of the reason people resist some of these questions about being settlers is that in the national american imaginary hillbillies sort of fit that savage slot right so with i think there is a sense that often hillbillies are asked well what about the native americans that you killed when they wouldn't say that in manhattan right you know so it's like it's sort of like you can't have a hillbilly and indigenous person in the same place because they're both actually connected to the land in some national imaginary so i just want to throw that out there but in terms of thinking about what some of you is there is talk about an appalachian commons i mean really working in this this new in the in the land there to set up commons or mosaics of much more complicated structures and also to say that if that land is stewarded as a carbon sink that's a national service so some of this i don't know where this could go legally but there's a lot of interest in what's happening in scotland because there's some pretty fundamental land reform happening in scotland which is claiming sort of commons rights so it it the big need is for the kinds of collaborative spaces for conversations that as ostrom would say the sort of diagnostic framework and there's an urgent need for scholars like you all to help clarify what the policy alternatives are but let these grassroots conversations drive what the questions are so there's a great deal of technical information that the technical uh advice that's needed thanks we have um we could continue with this but we do have one more question from the from from the outside that we'll try to work in okay so one last question from the online um so julia one of your slides shows the real winner being natural gas um aren't we really diversifying to natural gas which is the most price sensitive and the most vulnerable fuel source to disruptions to to reduce our carbon footprint i feel like i should probably let maryland answer that question um and that big surge of build-up that you see natural gas capacity additions were in a different price and policy environment than what we have today um i i watch what's going to happen with exports and lng facilities really really carefully because there's a price differential across the pacific that um will when when the technology exists for us to serve those markets will really change um what gas prices are like here today but i don't i feel really inadequate to answer that compared to maryland who do um i'm i'm just curious about i'm just curious about um so a lot of these issues that we talked about including habitat protection um it seems like it's heavily focused on fossil fuels and then solar but how about bioenergy what about bioenergy i mean there's been a there's been a lot of work looking at you know the ethanol fuel standard and and its implications for um agricultural systems you know most of the drive so so the like there's been a big plow up in in the great plains on the western edge of the great plains and that's um heavily attributed both to high commodity prices and the fuel ethanol standard um with major consequences so a great place if you're interested in that is the world wildlife foundation prints uh creates what they call a plow print which uses a variety of uh spatial data sets to calculate the loss of uh native grassland habitat in the great plains for example and of course it's not carbon neutral you know you know that but there are a lot of uh interesting new technologies being developed i'm sure oakridge has their fair share georgia tax got a bunch of them as well where we think that you could know a lot of money being pumped in which you know could be the basis of some sort of a rural renaissance i'm not sure i'm not myself investing in them but uh hoping hoping i'm wrong well i think like we have an algal biofuel research at msu and um in our i'm part of a big integrated assessment project looking at the bex economy in the great plains and one of the places that they're looking for algae to do interesting work is as a fertilizer alternative which has all sorts of like interesting energy system kind of dynamics within it um again who's going to own the technology and the production but uh i think there's a lot of exciting space there well once again i hate to cut us off when when things are still just rolling rolling fast but we have run out of time and so i'd like to first thank our speakers julia and betsy and dustin thank you so much this was really interesting both and then we i'd like to thank everybody who joined us here and not here and we've have a tremendous food for thought and a lot of a lot of new questions opened and hopefully we can move forward on this in some way that would be really productive and helpful i i am i'm warned though by betsy's mention of the word panacea that we aren't going to we aren't going to get there but thank you again thank you so much this has been a really interesting meeting thanks

Hi, UZAR 2020. I'm Gary Keenan-Booey and your slides are so extra. This is a presentation about making extra special presentations with the Scheringen extra package. First of all, what is Scheringen? Scheringen is an R package that lets you write an R markdown, and it uses the remark.js JavaScript library and Pandoc together to turn your slides into HTML webpages, like the one that you're looking at right now. To get started, you install that package as Scheringen, and you might need to learn a little bit about the syntax. There are great resources on Yihui's page or on the Scheringen repo on GitHub. So first of all, thank you to Yihui for Scheringen, for Knitter, for all of the amazing things that our markdown can do. So we're going to make your slides extra special. Scheringen extra provides a bunch of extra extensions that add on to the Scheringen package. It's not on CRAN. You need to use install GitHub to get it. And I do have a documentation page with examples of each of the extensions. We're going to talk about today. The first extension we're going to talk about today is TileView. So to use TileView, you simply call the useTileView function inside of an R chunk in your slides. Once you've done that, when you render your slides, you can press O to open up an overview of your slides. You can even see the slides that you've visited already or the slides that are coming up. You can jump back and push O again and jump forward and move around if you need to. Next up, panel set. Panel set is a lot like tab sets in in sort of normal R markdown. You get started by calling usePanelSet and then you have to create panels inside of your slides. To create a panel or a set of panels, you use the dotPanelSet class. And then you're going to fill it with panels. And each panel needs to have a name. Inside of a panel, you can put whatever you want, like R code or the output of that R code. So you could have, for example, R code in one panel and then the ggplot output in another. We're actually looking at a panel set right now. The other nice part is that you can use the left and right arrows to navigate back and forth between the panel. So your normal slide navigation isn't broken up. Next up, webcam. The webcam extension is the one I'm using right now to show my face in these slides. You can call to use webcam function and even give it a width and a height if you'd like to set how big your video is going to be. And then during your presentation, press W to turn on the webcam or press it again to turn it off. Oh, hi. How are you? You can also move the video around by pushing shift and W so you can move it out of the way just by pushing shift and W. Next up is editable. So you might identify with this situation. You've prepared some slides, but you didn't know an important piece in advance, like the Wi-Fi. But you can actually now edit your slides. Somebody told me right before I started that the Wi-Fi is hotel conference Wi-Fi. Does anyone remember the password? Yeah, yeah. Okay, use our 2020. Thanks. There we go. This is great for class. For example, if you ask your students, what's your favorite tidyverse function? You might have someone immediately call out spread and gather and spark a hearty debate about whether or not they should be replaced with pivot longer or pivot wider. So to make an element of your slide editable, you call use editable. And then you need to wrap the part that you want to edit and can edit. At that point when you run to your slides, you'll be able to edit that content. It's good for inline elements as well. Okay, slide tone is the next extension. Slide tone is a really cool feature. You're not hearing it right now, but if you go to the demo on the package documentation page, you'll hear what it sounds like. Every time you change the slide, there's a little tone that plays and it goes up as you move through your slides. And this can be really helpful if you need auditory feedback about how far you are in your slide. And finally, we have animate. Animate uses the animate CSS framework to animate your slides or parts of your slides. And the way that you use this is to first say that your slide is going to be animated. And then I have actually modified animate CSS so that you can declare an in and an out animation. For example, to have this slide came in from the right and it's going to go out to the left. If you'd like to have the same animation for all of your slides, you can use animate all. And there are a few coordinated transitions that you can pick from and have them applied to every slide transition in your presentation. So that's basically it for sharing an extra. There's a lot more. There are even more extensions in the package, which I suggest that you check out. The GitHub repository is here. You can find me on Twitter and also online at garrickaidenbuoy.com.

Wow, what's up everybody, once again it's Brandon and Shawn and we gotta talk about what you can learn from Metro Boomin's not all heroes wear capes album rollout strategy. Now if you've seen my Metro videos lately then you know that I talked about him using the pullout method and for all of y'all folks that doubt it just take a look at these billboards that dropped on October 26th and because of the effects of the pullout strategy when he was away from the game it created an energy so many people said what happened to Metro Boomin where is he did he really retire a lot of people kind of knew buddy was too young he wasn't going to retire but it created a lot of articles videos wondering where he is he took that energy played off of it and then drop these billboards and just to drive through how effective a pullout strategy can be when people actually care about where you are let's look at the comments because Nav actually posted the billboards on his IG page and that post created a lot of chatter people were saying stuff like perfect timing to is there gonna be another one what's happening to Metro is there gonna be a without warning to and a lot of people actually wonder if Metro was really missing for some reason people believed it people were putting up prayers for him and everything and of course you had the few that knew that this was all album promo so let's get into that part right here now this was a week long album Sprint October 26 was when the first billboards were posted in Atlanta and New York and then six days later is actually when the project dropped on November 1st and in that time not only did you have Nav post on IG about the missing billboards on October 30th 21 Savage Offset and Metro Boomin all tweeted 21 Savage said 11 30 Offset said don't trust you and Metro Boomin just posted three Jack-o-lanterns these kind of cryptic posts are elusive they keep fans guessing trying to figure out what the puzzle really is it's coming together but at this point with the billboards and 21 Savage Offset Metro Boomin and Nav all posting in this short period of time it's pretty clear that something's coming in the next day on Halloween Metro Boomin post his album cover art on IG the caption read not all heroes wear capes drop some flames if you're ready of course all kind of people just dropping flame flame flame flame flame flame flame flame all throughout the page but you get the point folks were ready for whatever was coming at this point you got a lot of people who are just excited to see Metro back in the spotlight and then on November 1st Metro Boomin drops the track list for not all heroes wear capes now it's not completely clear to a lot of people at the time that not all heroes wears capes was the actual title because so many people were still guessing was it gonna be perfect timing to without warning to but he continues this theme at the top of the track list posting where he says 10 a.m. save the world he's coming back to save y'all folks his caption read tonight we eat so he lets you know that it's coming tonight and of course he says drop some flames if you ready once again flames ensue flame flame flame flame flame flame flame flame flame all throughout the post but the album drops now let's bring it back what exactly can you learn from Metro Boomin's rollout of not all heroes wear capes well there's three main factors first and foremost is the fact that I actually do not believe he necessarily said I'm gonna retire did that whole thing and plan to do this as an album release he stepped back for whatever reasons he stepped back minding his own business but at some point he probably realized that hey there's this whole thing about me not being there was happening to Metro and he used that energy as in the marketplace to amplify his message played off of it to keep things rolling and that's a strong lesson I can't reiterate enough whatever you do you don't necessarily know how the market is gonna react what people are going to receive what you're doing as but if you can figure out a way how to positively spend that for your own benefit then you're gonna be able to figure out a market more effectively again and again because you'll just be accelerating narratives and spending narratives that already exists versus trying to create a narrative and that takes a whole lot of effort that might not necessarily be worth the money and in a day and age where you can really almost quantify so much of the conversation that you can keep a pulse on through social media it's very easy to see what the energy is out there and you don't necessarily have to use energy that's about you you can use energy that's about another subject another topic or another you know celebrity or whoever the person is and take that and figure out a way how to insert yourself into that conversation to bring attention back to your project number two this was a six-day album rollout strategy that is a very short sprint when you consider that sometime especially back in the day people might do a whole month long or two three weeks worth of album rollout as a matter of fact people still do that to this day but in this day and age once again there's so much information that people are taking in within a short period of time it's hard and expensive to monopolize a lot of people's attention for a long period of time so the fact that they were able to create the momentum pretty quickly and then go ahead and drop it while it was still accelerating and the tension was still coming in their direction it was highly beneficial because not only does it cost money to continue to get back in front of people and to continue to push the hype a lot of times but you also just never know what else is gonna happen in the marketplace you know something wild might happen in the real world news or Kanye might be doing something or some other artists that you had no idea what they were gonna do is about to do something real wild and decide to drop the same day that you dropped there's so many factors when you try to hold people's attention and do these long drops it can be risky let's just put it that way and if you could apply that to someone at the level of Metro boom and you could definitely apply the same thing to a smaller artist you might want to just go ahead and drop some things and a rather quick cadence so then you can go ahead and get the project out and then everybody else they just have to catch up and then as you get bigger more people will get that and number three when it comes to that it also goes back to resources if you don't have a lot of money if you don't have a lot of different people that you use again and again to continuously get back in front of people then it's to your advantage not to elongate your album rollout and just get the project out there or get the single out there or the EP and mixtape whatever words you want to use show people the content and it doesn't hurt that the project is dope I haven't got a chance to listen to it again and again and again yet but the ten freaky girls followed up by up to something followed up by the interlude with Travis Scott that's my favorite back to back to back so far I'm sure others will grow with me but I haven't got a chance to listen to it all yet anyway as always I want to know what you guys think what did you guys think about the whole album drop strategy what do you think about him using the pullout strategy and how he actually played on the missing what are you possibly going to do when you drop your album next want to know all your thoughts but other than that if you like this go ahead and like button if you like it you might as well share it and if you are not subscribed you know what to do hit that subscribe

All right, what's up internet? First things first, hang on. Just trying to make sure I can see chat properly and that everything is working. So if you notice, this is the same angle that I've been using for a while now but it's much clearer on my face because I'm using a different lens. It seems a bit, it's supposed to be green but the stream seems a little sluggish. Is it sluggish? Let me check the, let me check what's going on on YouTube. Ah, you know what, I think I am, wait. Sorry, just checking like, oh that got picked up on stream. The camera feels sluggish but I don't know if in-game it will feel sluggish although the voice seems okay. Oh, what the heck with it? Let's just go with it. Yes, so I'm using a new lens. It's actually not actually a new lens. I bought this last year pa for the ZV-E10 so we have two cameras. One that I use for my personal use and one that we use for the shop but both of them are the ZV-E10 and if you're not familiar with cameras like me, I'm not too familiar with cameras but they usually come with stock lenses but the stock lens is usually of an inferior quality so aside from the cost of the camera which can be quite expensive you also want to get your own lens or get these third-party lenses they don't need to be from Sony or from the camera manufacturer those lenses are usually a lot better and actually the quality on this one is quite good.

Para finalizar, en la Unidad 5 abordaremos los determinantes de salud que será un faro y ancla de nuestra intervención. Tendrán en cuenta las características de la zona, del centro educativo, de la organización y participación, así como de los comportamientos relacionados con la salud, incluyendo la dimensión personal, relacional y ambiental. Hablaremos de la importancia del orden y de las prioridades, proponiendo un avance progresivo que parta del contexto. También describiremos distintas estructuras de secuencias didácticas para poder implementar propuestas que encajen en cada una de ellas en función de las características de las mismas, sin olvidar los nueve momentos posibles de intervención a lo largo de la jornada escolar. Una vez centrado el discurso en este tronco común pasaremos a detallar ideas, propuestas y opciones dentro de cada uno de los determinantes de salud, destacando que muchos de los ejemplos propuestos podrían conectarse con más de uno de ellos, ya que son iniciativas complejas, participativas, comunitarias y transformadoras basadas en muchos casos en la óptica del aprendizaje y servicio. La salud integral y la alimentación, la actividad física, la convivencia y el bienestar emocional, junto con la salud integral y la sexualidad, la prevención de adicciones, las pantallas sanas y la salud ambiental y del entorno nos ofrecen multitud de opciones para generar salud en nuestra comunidad. Materializando y ejemplificando los principios de actuación, fundamentos de partida o fases de intervención en propuestas reconocibles con un impacto positivo en la salud. Nuestra intención final es dotar de las competencias necesarias para desarrollar un ciclo completo de aprendizaje en torno a la creación de nuevas escuelas promotoras de salud, motivando y sensibilizando a más personas y agentes que promocionar la salud es un estímulo valioso para el aprendizaje, el bienestar y la felicidad de todas las comunidades. Estamos convencidos de que con la ilusión y aportación de cada persona participante en este MOOC lograremos el objetivo común de que más centros educativos se conviertan en promotores de salud en beneficio de todas las personas y de todas las comunidades. Contamos contigo. Recordad realizar las tareas obligatorias para obtener vuestra insignia. Mucho ánimo, mucha participación y mucha salud. Pues nuestra parte ha sido un placer. Nos vemos en las redes.

The Craft Foods Company presents the Great Gildersleeve. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the Great Gildersleeve starring Harold Perry, brought to you by the Craft Foods Company, makers of parquet margarine, and a complete line of famous quality food products. Like a lot of people these days, Gildersleeve lately has been taking stock of himself and of his prospects for the future. Now when a man gets so low in his mind that he's willing to face the ugly truth about himself, there's usually some dear friend who can be counted on to help rub it in. You know what the trouble with you is, Gilder? No. You want me to tell you? No. You really want to know? No. What? You're lazy. I am not. You wanted to know. What makes you say I'm lazy? Because you loaf around here trying to make a career for a part-time job. Water commissioner? That's one of the biggest jobs. It's a political sinecure, and if you don't know it, you're the only man in town who doesn't. Hooker? Look at your predecessor, Clanahan. He was not only water commissioner. He was in the contracting business. He was in the sand and gravel business. He was... He was a crook. Granted. But if you had the slightest bit of get-up-and-go, you'd be out rastling around trying to stir up something too. Something that would bring you in a little income instead of just sitting here complaining. I'll tell you what's the matter with you, my friend. You've made a career out of boondoggling. Oh! I only tell you these things for your own good, Gilly. Hooker, I doubt if I'll ever speak to you again as long as I live. A friendship. But a few days later, the seed the judge had planted bore fruit. Raking your leaves, I see. Yes, doing a little raking. Gardener usually does it, but... I ought to rake mine, too. I have to speak to Leroy about that. Your place looks very nice. Thanks. Oh, say, gildishly. Yes? I've been meaning to speak to you. You've lived in summer feel longer than I have. Yes? I have a little problem. You see, I have a married sister. Her husband passed on recently, and I sort of have her on my hands. A widow, eh? Unfortunately. Although her husband never amounted to much in a business way, but it was a loss. The point is, I'd like to bring her here to summer feel if I could find a house for her. You don't happen to know of one. What's the matter with the house next door to me there? Mrs. Ransom's house. Ideal house for a widow. This sister is younger than you, you say? Older. Oh. No. No, I looked into that house a little. It seems to be all tied up in some estate. I don't know that it'd be quite suitable anyway. You see what I want? Well, I don't want a great big house, but on the other hand... Ah, you want something suitable. That's right, something suitable. How high would you be willing to go? Well, I know you have to pay for houses these days. You said it. But as long as it's not too far out of line... Mr. Bullard, I'm glad you spoke to me. I'll go right to work on it. You know of a house? I might. Whose? That would be telling, Mr. Bullard. But don't you worry, you just leave it in my hands and I'll get you a house. I'm not thinking of selling him this house. Gosh, where would we live? Yeah, that's the hitch. But there he is, money running right out of his ears practically. And he wants a house the worst way. Anki, you've got to learn not to get excited every time somebody comes along and wants to buy the house. Now, it's happened three times in the last year and every time we've had to go through this. I know, but it seems such an opportunity, darn it. I tell you, there are fortunes to be made in real estate today. Children, fortunes. Why don't you go in the business? I'm thinking seriously of it, Leroy. Thinking seriously of it. Let's see now. What would I need? You'd need some real estate. Well, not necessarily. That's not the way they operate. You see, they get a commission for selling other people's real estate. Boy, that's some racket. We do not consider it a racket, Leroy. And I'll thank you not to call it that. Ours is a public service that fills a real need. Now, take Mr. Bullard, for instance. He needs a house for his widowed sister. He needs it real badly. But if he hadn't happened to come to me and I hadn't happened to be in the real estate business, he might never find one. I wonder where I'm going to find one. I wonder where you're going to find an office, even. Yeah, that too. Well, who needs an office? My office is in my hat. Where is my hat? On the floor. You just took it off. Oh. Hand me the wisp room there, my boy. I want to sweep out the office. What a character. Yes, sir, children. There are fortunes to be made in this business. A real estate man, Leroy, never tells anybody where he's going. Well, come in. Certainly glad I found you at home. I thought you weren't speaking to me, Gilda. I'm in the real estate business now, judge. I'm speaking to everybody. Real estate? Mm-hmm. Just a sideline. I never really considered the water department a full time. Job, you know. Huh. Judge, how'd you like to sell this shanty for $40,000? $40,000? In the neighborhood, I should imagine. Is this a bona fide offer? Absolutely. $14 carat, AA. Who's the client? That would be telling Horace. But he's well-heeled, believe me. Of course, that'd be the usual commission involved. Oh, you come over here as a friend. Not only a friend, judge, but a businessman, thanks to you. And business is business, you know. Take your time, judge. Think it over. Well, what's your answer? Well, I don't... Yes or no? Well, Gildy, I... Come, judge, how about it? I'm trying to decide. You don't need this great big house. You know you don't. Nobody in it but you and your housekeeper. You ought to be ashamed living in a great big house like this with all this housing shortage. But, Gildy, if I... It'll probably fall on you. I guarantee you'll spend more on repairs on this house in the next two years than it cost you originally. You don't want this house. Get rid of it. Sell it while the selling's good. But, Gildy... A $40,000 judge, cash on the line. What's your answer? Gildy, if I sold this house, where would I go? Nuts. If you had a place to go, would you sell it? I'd certainly consider it. All right, I'll find you a house. Gildy, what can I do? Pee-Vee, let me ask you something. Have you and Mrs. Pee-Vee ever thought of taking in a border? No, I can't say we ever have. No, we've been pretty fortunate that way. No, wait a minute. It might not be so bad, Pee-Vee. It might be worth considering. Why? Well, it'd be a chance to share expenses. Fill that extra room of yours and make a nice little profit out of it. Oh, I don't think Mrs. Pee-Vee or I would like to have an extra room. Come stumbling in at all hours of the night and knock over the potted plants. Well, suppose it wasn't a stranger. Suppose it was someone you knew. Someone you know very well. Who? Well, this is just an idea, Pee-Vee. But for the sake of argument, say it was someone like a... well, say, Judge Hooker, for instance. Well, what would a judge be like? I'm just saying, suppose. But suppose the judge liked the idea and you liked the idea. I don't know. You know, sometimes I worry about you, Pee-Vee. You and Mrs. Pee-Vee. Just two old souls living all alone there. You think what we need is another old soul, huh? Let me tell you something, Pee-Vee. A man couldn't have a better friend than Horace Hooker. Well, I guess that's true. He's sober, but he's not. I don't know. I don't know. You know, sometimes I worry about you, Pee-Vee. You and Mrs. Pee-Vee. Just two old souls living all alone there. Well, I guess that's true. He's sober. He's neat. He's dependable. Yes, he is. And above all, he's a gentleman. A gentleman and a scholar. Yes, he is. He's true blue, Hooker is. He's all wool and a yard white. Now go along with you there, too. He's good company. He's considerate of others. Oh, always. In fact, it's a positive pleasure just to have him around. What's more, he goes to bed early. Oh, I've always thought well of Judge Hooker. Judge has always been a real favorite of mine. Good customer, too. You bet he is. Why don't you offer him your extra room, Pee-Vee? See what he says. We have got an extra room. Now don't tell me that. I've been to your house. Oh, the parrot has that room. Well, for goodness' sake, can't you move him out? Mr. Gillespie, if Mrs. Pee-Vee ever came to a choice between me and that parrot, I know which one of us would have to go. Ye gods, foiled by a parrot. Have I got to move the old goat in with me? No, I can't. The old goat stay right where he is. Because, you dunce. I've got a chance to sell his house for $40,000. Guess I didn't tell you, Pee-Vee. I'm in the real estate game now. On the side. No. Why didn't you say so in your first place? You mean we might have made a deal? It's not too late, you know. Now, if you took the judge in... Mr. Gillespie, I have one answer. I give to all salesmen. Oh, what's that? Get out. Well, you never knew the great gilder sleeve to stay out and he'll be back in just a moment. You know, Mr. Lang, I was doing some shopping today for a Halloween party and I thought I'd try the same thing on my grocer that the children do to me. So I walked up to the counter and said, trick or treat, Mr. Gibson. And he said, you're in for a treat today. There's parquet margarine in the refrigerator. That really was a treat. You're telling me. I've been trying for days to get some parquet to serve with hot rolls at this party. Well, it looks as though your guests are going to be well served. And I admire you for sharing parquet with them when there's still such a scarcity of fine quality spreads for bread. But I know how it is. When a woman discovers parquet margarine's delicious country sweet flavor, she wants her friends to know about it too. It's like telling them about a favorite recipe. The spreading of the good word about this good spread has made parquet a favorite in millions of homes. So if you'd like to share in its goodness too, look first when you shop for delicious flavor fresh parquet. P-A-R-K-A-Y. Parquet margarine, made by Kraft. Now let's get back to the great builder's sleeve, whom we find sitting quietly in the parlor of his home and castle. Let's see, we could put the old goat in the sewing room, I guess. That cart in there isn't so wonderful, but I doubt if he sleeps very well anyway. If he doesn't like it, he knows what he can do. There's worse fellows than Hooker to live with. I guess. He's clean. He's honest. Well, fairly honest. Hi, Anki. What are you doing? Just thinking, my dear. Thinking? Poor Anki. Don't you want the evening paper? No, thank you. I can think better without it. Okay, go ahead and think. I've got to study. Yes. Marjorie, Leroy, come here. I want to talk to you. Go ahead. I can hear you. I don't wish to shout. Come over here, please. You too, Leroy. Now, leave your nose alone, Leroy. And itches. Use your handkerchief. Oh, Judge Hooker is coming to supper tonight. I know. I heard you tell Bertie. Yes, but this is going to be a sort of, well, a special occasion. His birthday? No, but I want him to have a wonderful time. Do you hear? I want him to feel at home. He always does. He always goes to sleep on the sofa after supper. Well, I want him to feel particularly at home this evening. To feel he's a member of the family. I want him to feel what he's missing, living all alone there in that great big old house. I don't get it. Neither do I. Do you want to make him feel good or feel bad? Children? How would you like it if the judge came to live with us? Are you kidding? Of course he is. I am not. I think it would be nice to have the judge living with us. And I want you children to make the prospect very attractive to him. Anki, what a terrible idea. Now, don't get panicky. It won't be so terrible, my dear. You mean he'd sleep here on everything? Certainly. Sleep here, take his meals here, just like one of the family. But what's the idea? The judge is getting along OK where he is. Why louse us up? That's not a very friendly spirit, my boy. Let's think of the other, shall we? Judge Hooker, all alone over there. Anki, there's something more to this. Why should you start worrying about Judge Hooker all of a sudden? My dear, I have reasons. Good and sufficient reasons. As I say, the main idea is I'm sorry for the judge. He's getting old now. He ought to be surrounded by younger people. And then, besides the confounded, I've told you we have to cut down expenses. The judge would be a paying guest. Oh, so that's it. But why him? There's lots of people looking for rooms. The man that delivers the groceries is looking for a room. He has to sleep in his truck every night. He's a swell guy, too, Anki. He's double-jointed. Can't we have him? We're not going to have some Tom, Dick and Harry living with a sleeroy. Judge Hooker is an old friend. It'll be a pleasure to have him with us. A pleasure for him and a pleasure for us. You understand? Never mind whether you understand or not. When he gets here tonight, you'll be just as charming as you know how. That's something I don't know much about. Then you'd better be even more so. Come in out of the wintry blast. Remove your outer garments and rest your bones by our roaring fire. Jeepers, they're shooting the works. Marjorie, take the judge's coat, my dear. I'm going to ascend as he gets it off. Here. My George, it's good to have you with us, Horace. It's good to be with you. Let's all go in the living room, shall we? I know Birdie will have supper ready in just a few minutes. I'm hungry. What are we having? Whatever Birdie gives us, we know it'll be delicious. Don't we? Yes, indeed. As long as it isn't leftovers. Leeroy. Marjorie, let's let Judge Hooker have the sofa, shall we? Oh, never mind, never mind. I'd like to stand here in front of the fire for a moment. Toast my coattails as my grandfather used to say. Very good. Very good. Leeroy, I haven't seen you in quite some little time. What have you been doing? Nothing. School work, keeping you pretty busy, is it? I suspect you find time for a game of catch now, and then just the same. Catch? Leeroy's getting more homework now, Judge. He's quite a student. I'm glad to hear it. Have you learned to parse a sentence, Leeroy? Pardon? Learning to parse an English sentence is the beginning of a real education. I daresay your sister can tell you all about it. I never heard of it. My dear. What is it? My golly, there's modern education. If they don't teach them English grammar, what do they teach them? Yes, yes. My George, it's good to have you with us, Horace. Good to be with you. Is that a new suit, Judge? No, indeed. I bought this suit in 1932. Jeepers, it's older than me. This is Worcestered, this suit. Not an unfinished Worcestered, mind you. A hard Worcestered. It's a material that wears like iron. Looks like iron. It's a funny thing that I can't keep a suit that long, that no matter what it's made of. Well, there are one or two simple rules for a man who wants his clothes to last. I learned them from my father, and they've saved me a pretty penny in the course of the years. Pay attention, Leroy. This is something you'll want to remember. I never wear the same suit two days in succession. Wear it today, take it off, hang it up carefully. Wear another suit tomorrow. It's very important to give the fabric a rest. You don't say. That's the whole trick. I rotate my suits. I've got suits I've had for 20 years that look almost as good as the day I bought them. Remarkable. Isn't it, Leroy? Yeah. Do you hear that, Marjorie? How the judge makes his suits last? Yes, it was very interesting. Let's go sleep. Something's on the table. Yeah! Something's on the table! Leroy, we do not race our guests to the table. I'm hungry! Just wait for the rest of us. Good evening, birdie. Good evening, judge. Marjorie, will you take my arm? What? Oh. Fine to have him with us, isn't it, my dear? What have we here? Something special, Mr. Gilseave, in honor of Judge Hilker. Oh, birdie, you shouldn't. Well, Mr. Gilseave told me he wanted you to enjoy yourself especially, so I've done what I could. Birdie, your humblest effort is invariably successful. Well, I hope you like it. I heard this one on the radio. Can't quite make out what it is. I've passed this to the judge. Will you, birdie? Yes, sir. Will you forgive me if I take my vitamins before I start, Throckmorton? Marjorie? No, no. Go right ahead, Liberty Hall, Horace. Dr. Pettibone recommended these things, and I must say I've had a better appetite and more pep, too. The blue box is A, B1, and E. The yellow box is D and G. That ought to fix whatever's wrong with you, Horace. For Marjorie, birdie. The A vitamin helps my eyes. B1 tones up the nervous system. E is for... Excellent. That will do, Leeroy. E is for something, rather. And then D is the sunshine vitamin. And G is for... Guildersleep. Leeroy. Okay, can I start now, Wonk? You may. What is this? Oh, oh. Yes. What is it, birdie? Well, I wanted to fix something with the judge's special diet. This is eggplant pie. Delicious, birdie. Simply delicious. Yes, isn't it? Yum, yum. Birdie, you've done it again. Eat it, Leeroy. Eat every mouthful and tell your sister to do the same. Delicious dinner, Guildie. And so wholesome, too. Well, I'm glad you like that. Excuse me. Let the judge have the sofa, Marjorie. Oh, here, Judge. I'd rather have the straight chair. Thank you, Marjorie. You know, Guildie, you ought to try that diet that Pettibone prescribed for me. Might help you. I'm perfectly healthy, thank you. But I might consider it, Judge. I can get used to practically anything. Hi, George. It's good to have you with us, all right. It's good to be with you. What are we going to do? Can I play the radio? A little music would be delightful. Does it have to be the radio? What else? I was wondering about your work on the piano, Leeroy. You still taking lessons? Sure, but nobody likes to hear me play. No, Leeroy, that's not true. I often ask you to play for me. You want me to play now? I don't think this is just the time. I think it would be very nice. I think it would be very nice, too. Some other time. Pay no attention to your uncle, Leeroy. Give us a little concert. OK. Good to have you with us, old goat. Oh, here's Bertie. And a surprise for you, Judge. It's K-lack water, Judge. Well, this is an unexpected treat. I thought of it myself, Horace. I thought to myself, Horace always takes a glass of K-lack water at home after supper. Why not here? Shall I pour it, Judge? They win. That's a deal. Miss Guilty, do you want some? Certainly, Bertie. I love it. Well, that's fine. Well, Horace, bottoms up. You're very good health, old friend. Same to you. Oh, my. I'm sorry. What's the matter, Judge? You had it on ice, haven't you, Bertie? Yes. And Mr. Guilty told you. Oh, Guilty. I always serve it at room temperature. Oh, for heaven's sake. You're right, Horace. I should have remembered. Take it out and warm it up for him, Bertie. Yes, sir. Now, Leeroy, a little music. OK, you ask for it. I'll just stretch out here on the sofa if I may. Make yourself comfortable, Horace. Go ahead, Leeroy. Would you play something else? Well, play that again. Beethoven, isn't it? It's Bach. That's what I meant to say. Nice melody. Play it again. No, Judge. Listen here. I've heard that piece a good deal oftener than you. He's been playing it for two years as badly as he played it just then. I can't stand it anymore. Well, Guilty, I don't know how you expect the boy to improve if you don't give him a little encouragement. Encouragement? I've encouraged him to the tune of $2 a week for his lessons for five long years. When is it going to start paying off? It'll begin to pay off when the boy feels that he's appreciated. That's when... What? If you had any ear for music, you'd know he had talent. He has not. Ms. Roots says I have. You stay out of this. If you have talent, Ms. Roots has failed to bring it out. And another thing, Hooker, don't talk about my ear for music. You can't even carry a tune. I resent that. Go ahead and resent it. And don't think you're going to live here, either. What did you say? Nothing. I just wouldn't want you here as a permanent guest. Yes, that's all. I don't know what you're talking about, but nothing could induce me to accept such an invitation. All right. We understand each other. Certainly. You're a contankerous old goat. You're a stubborn old windbag. Now you're beginning to sound like yourself. No, Marjorie. You want to try to care like water again, Judge? I'll set it on the back of the stove a minute. Fine, Birdie. You want some, Mr. Gilson? No, thank you, Birdie. I hate this stuff. Yes, that's what I felt. Take it away. Stop! But, Birdie. Yes, sir? Fix some bacon and eggs for me and the children, will you? We couldn't eat that eggplant all of them, Hooker. Uncle! Gee, thanks, Uncle! With plenty of toast, Birdie. What's going on here? Never mind, you old goat. You can forget that real estate deal we were talking about. I already have. Good. Marjorie, play the radio if you want to. Lee Roy, do whatever you like. Jump up and down on the sofa. Hooker, would you like a nice, unfriendly game of checkers? All right. I must not cheat. Good old Horace. As long as I can hate you, you're not a bad fella. The Great Gilder Sleeve will be right back. These last several weeks on the Gilder Sleeve show, we've been trying to explain why it's often so hard to find parquet margarine in your food store. Quality spreads for bread are still scarce. And right now, it looks as though supply won't catch up the demand for many months to come. Craft will continue to distribute fairly and equitably all the parquet it's possible to make. And Craft's modern margarine plants are ready to speed production at a moment's notice just as soon as more top quality American vegetable oils are available for parquet. In succeeding weeks on this program, you'll be hearing about other favorite craft quality food products. We'll be back with more news about parquet later in the season. So until then, remember to always look first for delicious, flavor-fresh parquet, P-A-R-K-A-Y, parquet margarine, made by Craft. I'm glad you gave up the real estate business. Really? Why, Marjorie? I don't know. It did something to you. It made you seem harder somehow. That's exactly why I gave it up, my dear. Yes, when success comes to mean so much to a man that it begins to go to his head, it's time to taper off. Time to taper off. Well, I guess I'll taper off. Good night, my dear. Good night, customers. The Great Geldu Sleeve is played by Harold Perry. It is written by John Whedon and Sam Moore. The music is by Jack Meakin. Included in the cast are Walter Tetley as LeRoy, Louise Erickson as Marjorie, and Lillian Randolph as Bertie. Judge Hooker as Earl Ross and Dick LeGrand plays Mr. Peavey. This is John Lang saying good night for the Craft Foods Company and stay tuned in for all the rest of NBC's Great Wednesday Entertainment. Be sure to listen too next Wednesday for the further adventures of The Great Geldu Sleeve. Remember tomorrow to ask your grocer for the wonderful craft product called Frizz. Frizz makes delicious ice cream right in your refrigerator. Velvety smooth rich ice cream with plenty of cream and milk in it. It's easy to make any flavor you like with Frizz. Just add water, a little sugar, and freeze according to directions on the package. You get six generous servings from one package. Because Frizz is made by an exclusive process that retains the fresh cream flavor and because it freezes smoothly, Frizz ice cream is simply delicious. Frizz, F-R-I-Z-Z. This is NBC, the national broadcasting company.

Good morning. The first item of business today is general questions. We start with question number one from Alec Rowley. To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to address reports that rail travellers on the 5th circle face pure journey experiences and that there are constant failures of service. Minister, Hums are you, Sif? I completely understand the frustration that poor performance can have on the customer space and experience. I recognise that Scotland has faced a number of challenges, particularly in the recent months of autumn and winter, which I fully expect to be addressed immediately. That is why Alex Hines, the MD of the ScotRail Alliance, has instigated an independent review being taken forward by Nick Donovan as part of Scotland's recovery measures, which is something that I very much welcome. The sooner the performance challenges are addressed, the sooner of course passengers can enjoy the level of service that they I kiwr, wrth hwnnaol interleu honi i'ch darsefethau gyda'n fy mήor i gyflym iawn hynny olaf dat Wrth unleash rydw i gyflym iawn, oaf mae maith maith i rhan i mewn, oaf mae a chforestlo'r f Minellgrwy da i ddiogelion i fod os oheri'r skeleton, oed i ddes томуu hefyd看到 i atdoe look-up a udynt i ddig chamadog sy'r tri? Ar d Wowill y Merdi Option, credu i d scholarly los buttoliaeth aros hwn ymlo i meddwl, os rydw i ddat fatigue s beliefernu deall The Ffeminine Press has launched a campaign, Crush Hour. The name speaks for itself, but masses upon masses, the rail users in Fife, are horrified at the kind of service that they are getting. Will the minister agree to meet me so that we can go through the detail of all those problems? I think people have been patient, they have waited long enough, we need action and will he consider taking the railways back into public ownership so that the profits can be invested in the railways and we can address these unacceptable situations that are happening within the five-circle rail route? I can thank Alex Rowley for that. He understood from my answer that I wasn't dismissing at all the concerns, I completely understand them. I have been keeping up with the Ffeminine Press's coverage very much on this. What I would do is try to wrap some context around this, which is, in the early part of 2017, and indeed for most of 2017 until the autumn months, there was a significant improvement in Fife rail services, running at about 93, 94 per cent, but clearly in the autumn months they have not coped well. Hence the reason for the independent review. I can also say that many MSPs from across the chamber who represent Fife in the surrounding areas have contacted me, Shirley-Anne Somerville, Annabelle Ewing, Jenny Gilruth and Liz Smith as well, so I know that there are a number of MSPs from Fife that have raised that. I have spoken to Alex Hynes this morning about the issue and others. I am more than happy for my office to facilitate a meeting with those MSPs and others from Fife that might have an interest in rail service and rail performance with Alex Hynes. Of course, I would be more than happy to meet the MSP as well individually, but I think that this is a matter for ScotRail, so therefore meeting with the AMD would be the appropriate measure. My office will facilitate that meeting if it is helpful. Clearly, it will be an upgrade, as the member probably knows, in the rolling stock later in 2018-19, but people in Fife should not wait for that until they get an improvement in the service, so the immediate priority is getting that improvement in performance. In terms of his very last point, I understand his ideological position. I would just gently remind him that, of course, it is the SNP Government that has allowed a public sector bidder to bid for the railways for the first time, something that was denied by successive Labour Governments in Westminster. Mark Ruskell. Thank you. The issue of stop-skipping that we are discussing here is a problematic one because stop-skipping is only treated as a partial cancellation, and therefore there are no financial penalties resulting from that. Does the minister agree that, in the new franchise that will come forward, stop-skipping needs to be identified and there needs to be financial penalties applied to that? I would just reiterate, of course, that when stops are skipped, it does count as a PPM failure and, of course, ScotRail are held to account for their PPM failures. When it comes to financial fines, the squire regime, which is the auditing regime, is probably the best auditing regime of any railway in the entire United Kingdom. That has been borne out by the fact that ScotRail has been fined quite substantially when they failed to meet the very high criteria that we set them. His point is one that I will certainly reflect on when it comes to future franchises, of course, but before getting to that end point of the franchise, we should be continuing that dialogue with ScotRail to minimise what is a practice that is unhelpful. I should see when I became transport minister, I did say to ScotRail that I expect them to minimise the skipping of stops during the peak hours in particular. That has happened, but I would go back to my answer to Alex Rowley that in the autumn months and winter months have clearly been challenging for ScotRail and that is unwelcome. 2. Gail Ross To ask the Scottish Government what progress is made towards Scotland becoming a good food nation. Cabinet Secretary for Health and Sport, Fergus Ewing. Our plans for Scotland to become a good food nation are continuing. The Scottish Food Commission has recently submitted its recommendations for the good food nation bill. Those recommendations are currently being considered across the Scottish Government with a view to consulting this year. The consultation will inform the content of a good food nation bill for introduction during the term of this Parliament. 2. Gail Ross I thank the cabinet secretary for that answer. I have stated in this chamber recently that this piece of legislation has the potential to be one of the most exciting and important this Parliament will pass. Given the number of other sectors that the bill will cover and the amount of interest that it is likely to be, can the cabinet secretary outline how long the consultation process will be, when it will commence and how we make sure that everyone, not just stakeholders and industry experts, gets a chance to respond? Yes, I can confirm that the consultation will be launched later this year. It will be open for a period of 12 weeks. We are investigating the ways in which we can inform the public about this. This is a slightly different type of piece of legislation than the norm. I aim to seek to get the maximum involvement, as Gail Ross rightly suggests. We fully recognise the importance of involving as many people as possible in the promotion of Scotland as a good food nation. Edward Mountain Given the funding for the food and drink strategy has remained unchanged at £5 million a year since 2014, can the cabinet secretary confirm if funding to support the proposed new good food bill nation will come from this allocation or whether separate funds will be found to fund it? I am sorry that the Tories seek to introduce the monetary note, because the promotion of a good food nation is about how we carry ourselves, how we promote ourselves, promoting good nutrition, attracting more people to Scotland to enjoy the high quality of our natural larder. It is about encouraging young people to learn how to prepare food. It is not all about money, and I hope that at some point the Conservatives will get it. To ask the Scottish Government how schools identify and support children with mental health problems. Cabinet Secretary John Swinney Education authorities in all those working in our schools have a responsibility to identify, support and develop the mental wellbeing of pupils with decisions on how to provide that support taken on the basis of local circumstances and needs. Every child and young person should have access to emotional and mental wellbeing support in school. Some will provide access to school-based counselling, while others will be supported by pastoral care staff and liaison with the education psychological services, family and health services for special support when required. A mental health link is available to every school, and it has been achieved in a variety of ways using various models working to meet local needs. As part of the Government's mental health strategy, we are undertaking a national review of how personal and social education is being delivered in school. The review includes an assessment of how the teaching of mental wellbeing is delivered. That review will be completed by the end of this calendar year. Mary Fee I thank the cabinet secretary for that answer. The cabinet secretary will be aware of the findings of a SAMH survey of teachers that showed two thirds feel they had insufficient training in mental health to allow them to carry out their role, and that 73 per cent of the teacher surveyed had low levels of confidence in their resources to respond to a pupil raising concerns about mental health. Will the Scottish Government commit to ensuring that teachers receive adequate training on a continual basis? Will the cabinet secretary commend North Ayrshire Council for leading the way in offering pupils access to mental health counselling after starting a new counselling service across its secondary schools? First of all, the approach taken by North Ayrshire Council is a very welcome process, and I would expect that to be reflected in a variety of ways around the country in different local authorities. It will not be identically delivered in other parts of the country because other local authorities will have considered how best to meet the needs of young people as effectively as they can. I am very much aware of the findings of the SAMH survey. We take those findings seriously. It is why those issues must be reflected on by our initial teacher education providers and also be a feature of the continuous professional development of the teaching profession, recognising the significance of those issues. Finally, on a weekly basis, I am in and out of the schools of Scotland. I was in a school this morning before I came to Parliament. I see very good work being undertaken to focus on addressing the mental wellbeing of young people. Health and wellbeing is one of the three fundamental aspects of curriculum for excellence that were part of the chief inspector's guidance to education in August 2016 that must form a part of the curriculum delivery in all areas of Scotland. 4. Ruth Maguire To ask the Scottish Government how the proposals in its draft strategy to tackle loneliness and social isolation could help to promote the third sector. In our draft strategy, we are clear that third sector organisations have an important role to play in reducing social isolation and loneliness. To support that, we have protected the core third sector budget at 2016-17 levels. Volunteers are central to effective work. In 2016-17, our investment in the volunteer support fund resulted in 3,505 new volunteers being recruited from disadvantaged backgrounds. However, engaging people with this experience and those who are older remains a challenge, so our commitment of £3.8 million to that fund from 2017 onwards is important. That is why, because we want to do more and we have made our commitment clear with that investment, our strategy focuses on community-led work, what more needs to be done and what we as a Government can do to enable those community-led initiatives to flourish. 5. Ruth Maguire I thank the minister for that answer. The minister will agree with me that there are already many examples of great things being done by the third sector to tackle loneliness and social isolation. My constituents in Stevenson, for example, have benefited from working with centre stage and raise your voice idea, our dear, bringing people together with musical memories, family nights and with their theme of fun, food and folk. Can I ask the minister what the Scottish Government is doing to encourage organisations such as centre stage and raise your voice our dear to respond to the consultation to ensure that existing best practice is learned from and taken into account as the strategy is developed? I am well aware of the work that centre stage undertakes in my own area in Cymru with the Robertson Trust. It develops work with women, particularly around that area, and now has a very successful heart and soul initiative, including a community café. The organization and others that members spoke about in last week's debate that is a number of engagement events across Scotland over the coming weeks and months in order to encourage response to our consultation. For me and my officials to hear directly about some of the work that is done but also what more needs to be done and I look forward to hearing from Senterstage, Robertson Trust, Age Scotland and a myriad of organisations and people in their local communities about how our strategy can be improved. Of course we will do all we can to encourage their participation. Annie Wells As I alluded to in my speech on loneliness and social isolation last week, I am pleased that social prescribing is a perform part of the strategy. How does the Scottish Government intend to monitor and select pilot projects in local communities that can be recommended as models to be used elsewhere? I welcome Ms Wells' support for that element of our strategy and indeed last week for the strategy as a whole. Part of our consultation includes organisations giving us their views on those matters. We will return to the chamber and to the Parliament with our final strategy and our proposition on how we take some of those issues forward in some detail. Mark Griffin The Minister will be aware that the Government's budget proposes cuts that will affect the third sector's ability to help communities to be more sustainable and tackle loneliness. It is surely a real-terms cut of £0.4 million to central third sector funding, a £4.4 million real-terms cut to regeneration programmes and more cuts to local government undermines the good intention of the loneliness strategy that we all support. I always find it very sad when colleagues in this chamber refuse to hear what is being said by ministers or indeed to read documents that are there for them to read. Can I repeat, we have protected the third sector budget. The equality's budget is up and as I said in last week's debate it is ill behoves my colleagues across this chamber to misrepresent not only what the Government has in its draft budget but what our colleagues in SPICE confirm is in that draft budget. I am sure that, if they are ready, members from the Labour benches, if they yet have their proposals for the budget, my colleague and finance secretary would be more than happy to discuss any constructive proposals that they may have. To ask the Scottish Government what assessment it has made of the impact of Erasmus Plus scheme on the third sector, the further education sector and youth work in Scotland. Erasmus Plus receives on-going evaluations, which are undertaken by the projects, and a full impact assessment report is not due until 2020. However, feedback from stakeholders and projects illustrates the difference that those initiatives are making. The Erasmus Plus programme has played a significant role in broadening the educational experience, developing cultural awareness and increasing the employment prospects for Scottish young people. Since 2014, more than 15,000 people have been involved in nearly 500 Erasmus Plus projects across Scotland. The flow of people to and from Scotland supports the development of the skills, experience and global outlook necessary for Scotland's society and economy to thrive. I thank the minister for that answer. Two weeks ago, the Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee heard first-hand of the benefits of Erasmus Plus, not just to university exchange, but to young volunteers, apprentices and further education students. Will she join me in backing the Keep Erasmus Plus campaign, led by YouthLink Scotland, Leonard Cheshire Disability Scotland and others, and call on the UK Government to ensure that this vital scheme is not destroyed by Brexit? The Scottish Government is absolutely clear on the value of Erasmus Plus and the risks that are posed to it by Brexit, so, yes, I do heartily support the campaign that the member has mentioned. As I said in my original answer, the programme has played a significant role in broadening the educational experience, the cultural awareness and increasing employment prospects. As Ms McAlpine rightly points out, that is not just to university students. In fact, often the young people who are furthest away from higher education benefit the most as they have been allowed to take part in international exchanges that they might not have been otherwise able to do. Brexit, and indeed the loss of membership of the single market, the freedom of movement, threatens all of that. Therefore, this Government will do all it can to ensure that it protects Scotland's young people from the worst effects of the hard Brexit that is continuing to be pursued by the UK Government. To ask the Scottish Government what support it is giving to the Holocaust educational trust. We must never forget that the Holocaust and those who continue to suffer because of genocide and intolerance, racism and bigotry. Since 2009, the Scottish Government has provided the Holocaust education trust with funding for the lessons from Auschwitz project. In 2009, the funding began with £214,000 per year and has since risen to £296,000 per year, a total of £2.25 million over the period. The funding illustrates the Government's commitment to providing opportunities for Scotland's young people to develop as responsible citizens a key element of our curriculum. To date, the project has reached over 68 per cent of Scotland's schools, with 3,200 Scottish students having participated in the project, along with 500 teachers. The Holocaust educational trust plays a leading role in promoting Holocaust Memorial Day, which is on Saturday in which I know Bill Kidd has a question about in FMQs in a few moments. Holocaust Memorial Day falls on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, which I know the Deputy First Minister visited with Scottish schoolchildren recently. It was my honour to open our Parliament's annual Holocaust Memorial debate earlier this month, which this year focused on the theme of the power of words. Will the Scottish Government stand with me and with every member of this Parliament who spoke in that debate in pledging itself to remember the unique horror of the Holocaust and to thank the Holocaust educational trust for its invaluable work in ensuring that we will never forget? I agree unreservedly with the remarks made by Mr Tomkins in his question. The events of the Holocaust must be forgotten by nobody, and as we look at the troubled and uncertain world in which we live in today, there is even more requirement for people to be reminded of the horror of the Holocaust. As Mr Tomkins says, I accompanied Scottish school pupils to Auschwitz and Birkenau in November. Having extensively studied this period of modern history, nothing prepared me for what I witnessed. The experience for our young people of whom I was enormously proud, much younger than me, but able to handle with great dignity and care and understanding the events of that trip, indicated to me that the investment that we make in the work of the Holocaust educational trust is vital to ensuring that we sustain that understanding among our young people and their appreciation of those terrible events. The First Minister represented the Government at a Holocaust Memorial Day event last night in the city of Glasgow, which was run by our schools and was another fine tribute to the excellence that exists within Scottish education and the deep understanding of the significance and the horror of the events that Mr Tomkins raises in Parliament today. Thank you very much. That concludes general questions. Before we turn to First Minister's questions, I welcome to the gallery Dr Mahir Taj Rawini, the Deputy Speaker of the Pakistan Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pak Tung Kwa.

Alright so the Galaxy A80 is finally here and we're comparing it against the Galaxy S10 Plus because of course that's the king on the hill. We said that in a few videos back, go check that video of course. Now the A80 of course is Samsung's first true all screen display smartphone, traditional smartphone. It's got no notches, it's got no hole punches, it's got a little chin at the bottom but this thing is all displayed and you're going okay, what makes this so special? Well as I said there's no notches on display so for Samsung this is the first. What it has is a slide up camera that rotates for your front facing camera which is actually pretty cool. Now comparing this to the Galaxy S10 Plus, there's a difference in size. The S10 Plus is smaller compared to the A80, we look at them side by side. You can see looking at the wallpapers, both displays look really vibrant, that's of course is a wallpaper for one bunch man. If you know Metal Bat, that is who he is. All wallpapers, use the link down below and of course go ahead and download them. But you can clearly see how different they are. The A80 has a 6.7 inch display, 2400 by 1080, it's a nice vibrant display. Now both devices as you see have of course really nice displays, they house fingerprint sensors underneath the displays. The S10 Plus has an ultrasonic, the A80 I believe has optical, I still could be wrong because I haven't gotten really proper confirmation but the S10 Plus finger display is just much better right now. The A80 is a little slower, it's not bad, it's just you have to press a little bit longer to unlock your device, that's just what it is. I think the S10 Plus has done a much better job with the updates have actually done with it. Now in terms of performance, what do you have underneath? The S10 Plus of course has the 855 processor, we know this quite well. It is a great processor for a lot of things. Gaming as well does a fantastic job. If you haven't seen our gaming videos on this, go ahead and check them out. You can see how well the S10 Plus does. Now the A80 comes with a Snapdragon 730 processor. It's the latest mid-range from Samsung with 8 gigs of RAM and I did a gaming video on this and you can see how well this processor has. I think it's a really good processor. The one thing for PUBG fans you notice is that it doesn't do HDR for whatever reason, don't know why but I think the processor is capable because I've actually tested the processor beforehand with Qualcomm and it was able to do the highest end on PUBG for whatever reason you need to love it to that. But go check out that video, it is really, really good. Now what you have the the A80 that's also different from this device is the fact that the A80 doesn't have a headphone jack. S10 Plus does have a headphone jack so that's something that sets them apart. Now the A80 has that of course that sliding mechanism so it's a little different. It takes up more space and that's something you just have to pay attention to. Now they both have of course speakers with the A80 has that having a mono speaker which is pretty loud but it doesn't compare of course to the stereo speakers on the S10 Plus. Now USB Type-C charging for both of them. S10 Plus has a 4100 mAh battery, A80 has a 3700 mAh battery which is nice but the A80 uses a 25 watt charger which is better than the Galaxy S10 Plus. Now I personally use and this is not an ad guys I use the Anchor charger which is a it's a PD1 charger it is a 30 watt charger I love it because it's much faster. For both devices it charges my devices as fast as possible. Definitely go ahead and pick it up if you want to we have a link for you guys down below. It's an awesome charger but as I said the A80 uses 25 watts. The Galaxy S10 Plus I believe is about 18 watts for its charging or maybe even less somewhere we're going to correct me. Now when we talk about the cameras on these devices the A80 slides up it rotates. It's got three camera sensors in there. There's a 48 megapixel which is the new halving sensor you find on the OnePlus and devices like that. We've got an 8 megapixel ultra white and then we have a time of flight sensor which gives you the ability to do bokeh video. You can take bokeh shots bokeh video it's really cool something a lot of devices just don't do. The S10 Plus cannot do that. The S10 Plus has five cameras actually in total three in the back all 12 megapixels ultra wide center camera of course and of course a telephoto with 2x zoom. You have a front facing camera is 10 megapixels and you can also do a slightly wider shot as well on that camera. Now the big thing is how well are those cameras on the A80 compared to the Galaxy S10 Plus because if you're going to go in your head and going S10 Plus 800 minimum I could probably find it A80 600 looks really nice for camera sensors. I saw new 48 megapixels. What's something I'm going to do with it? It slides up and rotates. It's pretty cool. Well let's take a look and see how they compare. So let's start over video on both devices the A80 on the left the S10 Plus on the right what you notice for us is the A80 is worse at stabilization video over the Galaxy S10 Plus. S10 Plus is a really good job in stabilization as you can see you can also switch between lenses so you can go between your ultra wide you go into your regular camera and also telephoto A80 you cannot switch between lenses. So in terms of video the S10 Plus is actually better. Now from facing camera here as you know the A80 uses the red camera for its front facing camera it flips over as you can see the S10 Plus has better I think just color matching though the A80 I would say is more close to real life but more pleasing is what the S10 Plus actually gives so all depends on what you like. Now the A80 does allow you to use the wide angle lens so I'm using that a megapixel wide angle lens here to capture this wide angle photo so it's it's great if you're actually with a bunch of friends you can get very good wide angle photos as opposed to what you get with the Galaxy S10 Plus which basically is just cropped in and cropped out this actually gives you a proper wide angle shot. Now this is the wide angle shot comparing both A80 on the left the S10 Plus on the right S10 Plus has this you know much more punchier colors A80 is actually true to life and more flat but again looks really good in daylight. Now this is a standard shot for the megapixels on the A80 on the left the regular 12 megapixels on the S10 Plus on the right so you can see how well that actually looks here. Now this shot here is more interesting because I shot directly at the Sun the A80 does a really good job I think the S10 Plus is much better than better dynamic range on the S10 Plus and also it actually showcases the Sun as opposed to like a a flash or blob if you will on the A80 on the left. Night time shots so on the very far left you have the of course night mode on the A80 which you can see more of the street pebbles the the street itself as opposed to the center shot on the A80 but the Galaxy S10 Plus also in its its scene detection also picks up that so what I've noticed in terms of night shots is that both the S10 Plus and the night shot on the A80 kind of complement and in this shot I would say the A80 has a little slight you know slightly better with its night shot in the bar because you can see just a little bit brighter gives more balance to the scene as opposed to what you have for the Galaxy S10 Plus and the center shot of course shows that the A80 there's a little bit darker but I think this gives you a really good idea of what both cameras actually bring to the table so it seems that the S10 Plus camera is still better but actually slightly not as much as of a gap as I expected I think in daytime the S10 Plus camera is really more vibrant there's also more punchy over the AI algorithm with the scene detection even though you do have scene detection of course on the Galaxy A80 now the A80 of course has the night mode which is slightly better in certain situations but not by much so it seems the scene detection still works really good on the Galaxy S10 Plus and maybe it's the difference in process with the 855 and 730 from Qualcomm but I can't tell you I can just tell you that the S10 Plus is slightly better I think overall when you look at both devices you're gonna see something where it's it's quite it's quite clear and also unclear the S10 Plus is a better device it brings in a lot of features that you've compared and some extras like wireless charging, reverse wireless charging which doesn't have the A80 doesn't have and also water resistance so things that you might want to use wireless charger is great especially just dropping your device there and using it I think these are the things that sometimes work now the A80 brings in something completely different where you've got a full display for Samsung device you've got a camera that slides up and rotates it's the rear camera so some of the selfies that I took look actually pretty nice especially using the rear camera as opposed to the front facing camera that's completely different you also got fast charging at 25 watts and I said you know you can use a fast charger as well and get more from this device so I think that's that's the kind of weird balance you get here with this the A80 is about $600 right now it's lowest point in ebay and the S10 Plus you can get it for right eight something so I think the choice is yours but if for me in this battle for it the S10 Plus is still the winner so if you have any questions any comments guys let me know I'll try and send them for you otherwise don't forget to like and share this video favorite this video subscribe to each channel and once you do smash that notification icon to get notified where I release videos it's Thundie E same thank you and always enjoy your entertainment

Can Governments Have A Little Brexit Law-Breaking, As A Treat?

Can governments have a little law breaking as a treat? In what feels very much like a season one throwback, the country might be hurtling towards no deal as Boris Johnson threatens to blow up negotiations with the EU. What's the problem? As ever, it's the sticky issue of whether measures taken to avoid the need for a hard border on the island of Ireland constituting outrageous impingement on UK sovereignty. So far, so 2019. After the internal market bill passed at second reading by 77 votes, Tory backbenchers are all over flutter. I believe very strongly that we should obey international law. How can the government reassure future international partners that the UK can be trusted? I cannot vote for legislation that a cabinet minister stated from the dispatch box will break international law. Taking the view that playing fast and loose with Britain's international treaties constitutes a breach of the professional codes they signed up to, civil servants Sir Jonathan Jones and the government's law officer for Scotland, Lord Keane, tended their resignations. Lobby journalists are clacking about all over the shop, predicting big trouble for Boris Johnson unless he can modify the moderates in his party. Sound familiar? Well, it's basically prorogation to electric boogaloo. So, what's going on? The TLDR is having spent the last winter telling the country that the withdrawal agreement that the government negotiated is a fantastic deal, won an election on the promise to get Brexit done, and passed said deal in parliament with a shiny new ATC majority. The Prime Minister has now decided that there are unacceptable problems with the Northern Ireland protocol. I regret to have to tell the House that in recent months, the EU has suggested that it is willing to go to extreme and unreasonable lengths. Using the Northern Ireland protocol in a way that goes well beyond common sense. The Northern Ireland protocol, which, if you can cast your mind back, was supposed to be the better alternative to Theresa May's backstop, would create a customs barrier down the Irish Sea and keep Northern Ireland in the single market for goods. The protocol contains provisions for a joint committee to be set up to determine which goods exported from the mainland are at risk of entering the EU, and therefore should be subject to full tariffs as they cross the sea border rather than the land one. If there's no agreement between the two sides, the default position is that tariffs must be paid. Are you still with me? The government is now saying that this gives the EU too much power over what goes on in the UK's internal market, and that eggs going from Barkshire to Belfast are nobody's business but our own. The problem is, the Northern Ireland protocol is already international law. Is it a treaty signed by both parties ratified in our parliament this year and consented to by the European one? So this is where the internal market bill comes in. The legislation overrides the bits of the treaty that the government doesn't like, but interestingly doesn't actually contain any measures to deal with the threat of food blockade at all. Its supporters claim that this in itself can't be unlawful, because parliament's lawmaking power can't be bound by decisions made by previous parliament, and sticklers might want to point out that it was this parliament that ratified the treaty in the first place. The milk monitors of Westminster are less than happy with the idea that the government not only intends to break international law, but isn't even bothering to pretend like it isn't. Yes, this does break international law. This has united all five living former prime ministers in disdain. Theresa May spoke out against the bill, and David Cameron emerged from his 25 grand shed to condemn the move. Gordon Brown called the internal market bill an act of self-harm, while John Major and Tony Blair co-authored an opinion piece calling the legislation the Iraq of Mutual Recognition Measures. Okay, that's not strictly true. They called it irresponsible wrong in principle and dangerous in practice, which from Tony Blair is a bit… So are we heading for a no-deal? Maybe. It is worth remembering that we've been here before. Ratcheting up the threat of no-deal and driving a steamroller over constitutional norms by unlawfully proroguing parliament worked really well for Boris Johnson last year. He managed to fudge the Northern Ireland border and got a deal. He even secured the support of ERG hardliners, despite the fact that the withdrawal agreement was all that dissimilar from the one that got Theresa May defenestrated. It might be that the internal market bill is simply intended to add a bit of muscle to their WTO threats and help extract concessions and trade negotiations with the EU. Equally, they might just be squid ink to disguise Johnson's own capitulations, and also might be the case that this is all part of a clever plan, but we end up with an accidental no-deal anyway. What's clearer, and perhaps in the long term more significant, is that Johnson's government has bet that only geeks and remainers really care about constitutional norms. The Tories are at a solid 42% in the polls, and reviving the Brexit Forever War is no bad thing when COVID infections are on the up and no one can get a test. And also, this is music to the ears of the likes of Suella Braverman. Usually, an Attorney General's job is to provide legal advice to the government to make sure they're not blundering into any illegal no-nos. But with Suella Braverman's long-standing disdain for the process of judicial review, support for last year's unlawful prerogation, and commitment to booting bits of the withdrawal agreement into Rosie, it's clear she considers her role a little differently. She's not looking to uphold the law. She's interested in making sure it doesn't impinge on the power of government. The legal argument basically being that parliamentary sovereignty is the shiny charizard of constitutional norms and if you don't like it, it's entirely constitutional and lawful in domestic law to enact legislation that may operate in breach of international law or treaty obligations. Will this be a problem for the Conservatives? Well, breaching international agreements might not be great when you're looking to strike a shit-ton of bilateral trade agreements in the near future. But on the domestic front, there's a fair chunk of the population which quite likes the idea of Britain being a swaggering rule breaker on the international stage. When citizens break the law, they face the law. But when governments break the law, they change the law. And anything else is just finicky nitpicking and we've got more important things to think about. Thank you very much. The public care more about individualized acts of hypocrisy like dominant comings drive up to Durham, but not so much about the rules constraining the power of government so long as they're getting on with it. That's a hospitable environment for a nationalist populist project.

He's set, Atlanta bringing five and Brady will go down. Dante Fowler broke through, dusted the shoes, and gets the second Tom Brady. Little throws, open, Hearst touched down Atlanta. Wide open. Oh, you think you got a moment? Look at that, the cage is so big. 14-8 shown and caught. Touchdown, Russell Gage.

Does it do something else? There it goes! Yay! See what it is? Look at the green thing! Okay, let it start. I don't think it's going to start without an anvil.

Okay, should I turn it off? No, no, no, no. We should let it run for a while to charge the capacitors. I have a drive that you can do. Manual is being too ready to work.

I'm Scott Caldwell from Kansas City, Missouri. Scott, how do you feel about the training that you've received? I've learned a lot. You get to work with kids, you get to work with adults, you get to practice what they teach, and they're always there to help you. It's been very helpful, very insightful. And what about the trainers? The trainers are the best part. There's actually a lot of really good trainers here. They're, like I said, they're very helpful. They're always willing to go the extra mile to help you out, so they've all been really good. How do you feel about the support you received before and during the course? Again, it's very helpful. I keep using that word, but they always stay late. They come early. They'll take you to the library during breaks. They're always making sure you understand the content that you're helping your classes and that you're actually understanding all the content. What's been your favorite part of the course? We get to teach little kids once a week, and that's always my favorite. They're very energetic, and they learn really quickly, so you can see the light go off, and it's really fun to watch them learn. And what's been the most challenging part of the course for you? We're taking a test Monday, and I'm trying to learn the phonetic chart. That's kind of hard for me to grasp, but John's been very helpful, and I've been getting a lot of support. What's been the best part of your staying prog? I love prog. I didn't plan on staying. Since I've been here for a month, I think I'm going to get a job here, and I want to live here now, so everything about prog is amazing. I love this town. How do you feel about actually teaching? Are you ready? This is the third week, so I want to say I'm 100% ready, but this has definitely helped me. I'm more ready now than I was when I started, so I'm getting better. I think by the time I get done with the class, I'll have a good grasp on teaching, and teaching English is a foreign language, but it's definitely helping me. I want to say I'm 100% ready yet. What do you think about the location of the school, the facilities, resources, et cetera? Prog has a really good public transportation system, so it's really easy to get here. It's real fast. Facilities are great. They get really nice classrooms, big enough for all the classes. There's always multiple classes going on, and you can walk back and forth, and the library is really nice for resources, so it's really easy to prepare lesson plans. So it's been great. Would you recommend us to someone that was looking for a Tuffle program? I'd recommend you to everyone.

Hello and welcome back to the weekly ranking show where we go through all the top ten players for the men and the women and all the changes throughout the week. There's been some big tournaments this week on the grass courts including ATB 500s in HALA and Queens club and there's some big changes happening around the top 10 and outside the top 10 as well so let's get straight to it. Starting with the top 10 for the men for this week and no changes for the top 10 for the men. Not too many players played this week. We still have Novak Djokovic, world number one, followed by Daniel Mevvedev at number two, Rafa Nadal, he's at number three, the final of Sidney Pass, he's at number four, Dominic Thames at number five, followed closely by Aleksandr Zverev at number six. Despite making the final of the ATB 500 event in HALA, Rublev stays at number seven, Federer, he's at number eight and even though he won Queens club, Baratini stays at number nine and Roberto Batista Ragu rounds out the top 10. Let's go have a look at the top 10 for the race to Turin, the race to the ATB finals. Novak Djokovic, he stays at number one after winning the French Open a couple weeks ago. Sidney Pass stays at number two but we do have a change after Andrei Rublev made the final of HALA last week. He's actually gone up two spots to number three, bumping down Zverev and Nadal who are now at four and five. Mevvedev, he stays at number six, Baratini stays at number seven, Karatev at number eight, Sinnera at number nine and Hubert Hercatch stays at number 10. Having a look at some of the players that have gone up in the rankings this week, we've got two players who have career high rankings after having really good weeks last week on the grasscourts, the HALA Open Champion, Hugo Ombar, he's at a career high ranking number 25 in the world which is six spots higher than last week. And Kam Nori, he's at 34 in the world which might get him a seeding at Wimbledon this year. He had a great week last week and he is also at a career high ranking, seven spots higher than last time. Some of the players have dropped down in the rankings this week. We have Milosh Rionic, he has dropped down four spots outside the top 20 now at number 22 and also confirmed that he's not going to be playing Wimbledon so he might actually drop down a little bit more. And Dominic Kofa, he's gone down 10 spots to number 63 after losing a lot of points over the week. Let's have a look at the top 10 for the women this week and we have Ash Bharti, she stays at world number one with Naomi Osaka close behind at number two, Simone Halep, the Wimbledon Champion, defending champion, she'll be back hopefully next week, she stays at number three followed very closely by Irina Sabalenka at number four. But we do have a change in the top 10 for the women, we have Sophia Kennan, she's dropped down to number six and Alina Spedalini takes her number five spot again, but those two are very close in the rankings but going into Wimbledon, this is what the rankings will look like. Bianca O'Drescu, she stays at number seven, followed closely behind Serena Williams at number eight, Egas Fiontek, she's at number nine, with Carolina Pliskeva rounding out the top 10. Having a look at the race to Shenzhen, the race to the WTA finals and we have no change this week because most of the big players that played last week didn't do so well. Ash Bharti, she is in the lead still at number one with the French Open Champion, Barbara Krijakova at number two, followed closely by Irina Sabalenka at number three, Naomi Osaka, the Australian Open Champion, she's at number four, Egas Fiontek at number five, Muga Ruther, she's at number six, Pavlicenkova stays at number seven, followed very closely behind Maria Sakari at number eight, Jennifer Brady, the Australian Open finalist, she's at number nine and Coco Goff rounds out the top 10. Players that have gone up in the rankings this week, we have Corne, she's gone up to 56 in the world, that's seven spots higher than last week after a really really good week at the German Open and Samson Over, she is at a career high ranking 63 in the world, going up 43 spots higher than last week, so she has just rocketed up the rankings after actually winning the German Open which is a WTA 500 event, so she got a lot of points from that event, she's almost halved her ranking from outside the top 100 now to 63. Having a look at some of the players that have dropped down in the rankings this week, we have Martij, she's gone down four spots to number 29 in the world after losing a bunch of points this week and Venus Williams, she continues to drop outside the top 100, she's down nine spots to 112 in the world but she will be probably getting a wild card into Wimbledon this year, so she will be playing Wimbledon in the main draw but her ranking continues to slide, so there it is, the rankings for the week, not too many big big changes in the top 10 but some players with career high rankings and the race to the finals, the race to the ATP finals and WTA finals starting to shape up a little bit now and after Wimbledon it'll be pretty much locked in for most part especially those top five players, they'll be locked in usually after Wimbledon if they have a good run but let me know down in the comments below, who do you think should be in the top 10, who's missing for you or who's missing from the race to the ATP finals, remember Federer, team, those guys aren't into the finals race because they haven't played enough this year and also don't forget Rafa Nadal is not playing Wimbledon, how will that affect his ATP finals campaign as well, so not too many changes in the top 10 but the rankings for Wimbledon they're locked in stone

One thing that I was thinking about and we're gonna get into the video in like a second But one thing that I was thinking about earlier today. I'm like man. I've really been seeing y'all Every single day for like the past four years There'll be a day here and there where we won't see each other But literally like pretty much 99% of every single day. We've seen each other for like the past four years Maybe even five. I don't know but I appreciate y'all I love y'all so much and I thank you for just supporting this channel and making team keep it clean what it is Just a lot of positive people Just talking about football mostly talking about the Ravens really talking about whatever with football and it being a safe environment Hey, if you got an opinion on some you could share it ain't nobody gonna be Oh, man, you stupid We not on that somebody disagrees. Okay. They disagree respectfully Somebody agrees. Okay. They agree respectfully everything done with respect. They should be done with respect And if it's not done with respect then bye, but anyway, I love y'all and I really appreciate y'all a lot for real For anybody that's not subscribed make sure you subscribe to the channel turn your notifications on so you don't miss anything Because regular season is like right around the corner But we still in preseason for now and somebody who wants to play in the preseason game the Ravens preseason finale Is Lamar Jackson What y'all think about that now, of course John Hall ball He was having his presser a few days ago and speaking to the media and he let it be known like hey Yeah, Lamar Jackson, he wants to play in this last preseason game now Lamar Jackson I believe the last time he played in a preseason game was the infamous JK Dobbins Game where he got injured versus the commanders right on that first drive and that first drive they ran a screenplay and Bradley Bowesman mr. Block JK got hurt. I don't remember who the defender was. There was no dirty play or nothing like that Just tackled him failed the wrong way and that was a wrap so I believe that was the last time Lamar Jackson played a preseason game now I know it's gonna be a lot of mixed opinions on this thing Some people may feel like a Lamar should play some people may feel like a not Lamar should not play Me I'm I guess I'm right in the middle of all of that because initially like So how about today the Lamar wants to play But then You think about it and when was the last time Lamar Jackson did play obviously he's been practicing and everything He's been a trainer can't been a forego for all of that, which is great but when the last time he played in a meaningful game and The preseason games are not meaningless, but um Last time he played in a meaningful game What was it November December of this past season because what he missed a he missed a obviously the playoff game What he missed the last four games, I think or the last five games I forget what it was, but he the last time he played was like November December of 2022 So that was that was it that was it I'm glad that he didn't play against the commanders because I would be worried that they may take some cheap shots against him Especially with the whole Mark Andrews thing with just the whole preseason streak thing I just there could have been some foul play there. So I'm glad he didn't play in that game, but against the Bucks Could he play like a series or two? He could and he might we will see if Coach John Hall ball grants Lamar Jackson that request Because I mean I we certainly wouldn't mind seeing him seeing him and some of the starters from offense or what not seeing him in like Every time we don't see Zay out there He just continued to wow us but like I said with Zay. Hey, I He ain't got nothing else to show. He ain't got nothing else to show He ain't got nothing else to prove we don't need to see nothing else from Zay flowers until week one So follow them I will keep him out, but then at the same time It's like over for Lamar playing I think they will probably want to play to a little bit Maybe Odell might want to play suit up. Maybe Nelson. I go maybe just maybe and I can see him playing just to again knock some rust off a bit just shake it off a bit and Just be like, oh, yeah, yeah, I'm back Maybe yeah, throw a couple passes or whatnot do a couple of handoffs or whatnot and just Go out there do your thing even if it resulted in a punt just to be out there just for a tiny bit I could see why he would want to do that I could definitely see that. So if he played cool If I had to lean to one side with or another whether I felt like he should play or not Probably more towards or not But I mean, hey, it is what it is. If he plays he'll be fine. He'll be fine I know he was just throw some quick passes or whatnot Maybe take it like a deep shot or two and then call it a day and call it a day Whether you play one series where he played two series it wouldn't be nothing crazy. I don't think So, yeah, so we'll see if they go for it now on the flip side of that Some reasons why maybe he shouldn't play doesn't need to Not a big deal because unfortunately we've seen Lamar Jackson Missed the end of the season before and when he came back He was just fine He was straight. So like when he came back in the regular season, he was just fine He so he ain't missed nothing. He wasn't like, oh man, Lamar Jackson. He missed his time last year Now he's out of sync with the team. No, no, he's fine So that could be just the same thing why he doesn't need to play of course There's always the risk of injury in a In a preseason and we hate seeing that that's that is the worst the absolute worst and us Ravens fans We'd we know I mean even without preseason games. We know all about injuries The way that this Ravens team has been just really over the past like three years alone That's turned us all into medical experts like we all have learned so much about the body We've all learned so much about different bones and whatnot the way that they're structured We learned about different muscles and whatnot. We've learned about strength. We've learned about conditioning We all have learned so much about all of that as Ravens fans Especially these past three years because we've heard so many extensive and detailed reports about this that in the third And we tired of it like we tired of it some of y'all out there or doctors and whatnot Y'all got these bachelor's master's doctorate degrees and whatnot But there are a lot of us that now with everything that the Ravens have been through We got that same level of education without having had to go to school for all them years and whatnot We got the same level of education because we know all about the body now So it's it's been crazy to see and crazy to watch and hopefully this is the year where we don't have to Just see any of that none of it So those will be some reasons why I think Lamar it could sit this one out my friend But again, he'd be fine if he plays him it'd be fine now Another thing to think about and somebody brought this up. This is a really good point Because somebody could be like well, he's learning the new offense. He's in a new offense And he's only been in this new offense in practice He's only been in practice training camp and all that but he hasn't gone up against a real defense Now not that he would be going up against a real defense because you know again three seasons or super vanilla and whatnot But they be throwing a little stuff here and there at you but They could be like all right Lamar new offense. Maybe he might struggle what not Let me get some of the kinks out of whatnot, but something that somebody appointed somebody brought out Forgot who it was my apologies and this was on Twitter. Well X whatever you want to call it He talked about how a lot of people will say Lamar Jackson Oh, he might struggle this year in a new offense because it's a brand new offense. It's like okay, then he was like well with that remember in from going from Louisville to The NFL that's obviously a new offense because he went from Louis went from college to working with under offensive coordinator Marty Monewake With the Ravens. This is rookie and Marty Monewake with the offensive coordinator, but then from 2018 to 2019 He into the brand new offense because Greg Roman was offensive coordinator. He became offensive coordinator then So that's a brand new offense. So he switched and then he just became This MVP and enemies MVP and whatever So he did just fine in a brand new offense then like so two years straight Well, actually three years straight because college one offense Louis 2018 one offense Monewake 2019 new offense Greg Roman So Lamar Jackson has been through new offenses before and had success remember his first year Whether he went six and one or seven and one in his rookie year after Joe Flacco went down with injury Then his second year in a new offense in the NFL. He went 14 and two So new offenses have not been a struggle for Lamar Jackson And not saying that he gonna come out here and it's gonna be perfect But I think that that fear of Lamar Jackson and new offense may be a bit overblown and With my guy had brought but at that point. I was like, oh, that is a Really really good point and something that I had not really thought about But that kind of eases it should ease a lot of Ravens fans concerns about the Ravens in this new offense Because Lamar Jackson is the leading obviously this offense goes as Lamar goes So, yeah, that's just something to think about but anyway Team keep it clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all so much. Thank you for everything that you do. Happy Friday Happy Purple Friday. You got a game tomorrow Yeah, it should be a fun weekend. I love y'all y'all stay up y'all keep your heads up if you got something that you're going through right now, please Please just keep pushing you got it. You got it. You're gonna get it You're gonna get it for sure. We know you will we all got your back. Love you and we have

In continuation, our discussion on exploiting the debt holders while taking the advantage of leverage, let's see how debt overhang problem can be estimated and what are the leverage-raget effect. How much leverage must a firm have is a significant debt overhang problem. There is an approximation rule to measure this problem of debt overhang. This rule says that the equity holder will benefit from the new investment opportunities only. If the project's profitability index is exceeding the relative riskiness of the firm's debt times its debt-equity ratio and for a firm who has zero debt or a risk-free debt, the net present value will be greater than zero. And for the risky debt in that particular firm, the required cut-off is positive at it will be increased with the increasing level of leverage. We have an example to compute debt overhang. We have two companies here and we have their respective values of their equity betas, debt betas and debt-equity ratios. Requirement is there to determine minimum NPV such that new $100,000 investment will benefit shareholders and which firm has the more severe debt overhang problem. And for this, we need to determine the cut-off level of profitability index and that comes to 0.0375 which means that there should be at least NPV of $3750 that can benefit shareholders. And so far as the cut-off level of profitability index of tax is concerned, it is 0.1675 so there is a severe debt overhang problem because its shareholders will reject all the projects that have even positive NPVs up to this higher cut-off rate. The shareholders can benefit only if this firm cashed out by liquidating its assets up to $116,750 in order to pay an additional amount of $100,000 in dividend to its stock holders. So how agency cost can affect the value of leverage? We see that owners and managers may be induced to increase leverage even the firm's value is declined. Similarly, the equity holders benefit at the expense of the debt holders in that particular case. With financial distress cost, we see that shareholders finally bear these agency costs because the debt holders recognizing this particular problem pay less amount initially to the firm when the firm is going to issue debt. So this reduces the distribution available to the shareholders in the form of dividend. The net effect of this issue is that the reduced initial share price of the firm net reduction is in fact in line with the decisions of the negative NPV of the project. So we can say that at the initial stage, the price of the shares reduces in line with the negative NPV of the firm's decision. The likelihood of the firm's default and losses on its debt holders create these cost of agencies or agency cost of debt. The riskiness of the firm's debt level rises with the magnitude of the agency cost. Agency cost represents this particular agency cost represents an other cost of increasing the firm leverage that will affect the firm's optimal capital structure choice. Another example that would the agency cost arise if the firm owed 0.4 million rather than 1 million to its debt holders. We have an option where there is no investment decision, then the firm's assets would worth 900,000, the debt value is 400,000 and the remaining $500,000 will accrue to the equity holders and if the firm takes a risky strategy, then the assets will worth 1.3 million or 0.3 million and with the payment of 400,000 debt out of these assets, the equity will worth 0.9 million or 0.0 million dollars. So the expected payoff to the equity holders would be 0.45 million. The equity holders will reject this risky strategy and it will be reducing the expected payoff to them. So what about an under investment issue? We see that in that particular case, the new equity issue will be 0.1 million. The firm assets value is 0.9 million. The value enhancement is 0.15 million while deducting the debt value of 0.4 million from these amounts. We have a net gain of 0.15 million for the equity holders. So equity holders are paying off of 0.15 million for an investment of 0.1 million. This means that equity holders will be accepting this new investment strategy as they are here better off in this particular case. What is leverage-ratchet effects? You see that this effect captures two observations like the existing debt holders induces a firm to increase leverage despite of the fact that it will be decreasing the firm's value. And other observation is that the shareholders will not have an incentive to decrease the leverage by buying back the debt even this decision will increase the value of the firm. This ratchet effect is an important additional agency cost of leverage affecting the firm's future growth and its other financing decision. This effect in fact induces the firms to borrow initially lesser amount in order to avoid these costs. But over time this effect may lead to higher leverage as the owner prefer to use more debt in the firm. How debt maturity can be related with the certain covenants? See that there are several ways to mitigate the firm's agency cost of debt. The first way is to use of short term debt instead of long term debt. But this reliance on short term debt will obligate the firm to repay or refinance its debt quite frequently. And also the firm's risk of financial distress will increase the cost of financial distress to an unexpected level. And the second way is that the debt covenants may be there, these debt covenants may limit the firm's ability to pay a larger amount of dividends or it may restrict the firm's investment decisions. It may also limit to acquire new debt by the firm. And it may limit the management's flexibility because this covenants decision may get in the way of the positive NPV projects and in this way these covenants can have their own cost for the firm.

Hey everyone and welcome to Norris Cove. I'm Yoshida and here at the Cove, we do budget financing planning and just a little bit of DIY and a little bit of everything. So I'm glad to have you today and I would like to show you today. Be planning for the week and my new A6. Yes, I've been showing you me planning in my pocket. So I'm kind of switching things up. I'm testing planners out periodically and basically per week just so that I can see which planners are going to take into 2021. So if you would be interested in seeing how I plan for the week and my new A6, stay tuned. As you can see here, I have some stickers. I have my planner. I have some markers here. I have Tombo and what are these? What is the color of them? Also some mild liners and I have some washi tape here in black and white. I haven't quite decided if I wanted to do a minimal spread or add something. I did a little slight flip of this planner on my Instagram. If you're not on my Instagram or you're not following Instagram, please do so and I'll leave my link or my handle there out here at the bottom. So I'm not going to do a flip, but this is pretty much how I do the weekly. I went back to these inserts by Simply Trendy Co. I love these. I pretty much do a brain dump for the week on this one. So I'm going to take both of these out. Well, I need this one so I can flip back and forth. And then also from her, I got the daily and then I got this grid weekly. I'm going to show you how I used it last week. This was last week. I shouldn't have put that there, but hey, it's there now. So I'm going to take out this and then this pin here is from my shop. I'm going to use that to write and I'm going to put these stickers over here to the side. And the first thing I'm going to do is pretty much blind up my week. Anything that didn't get taken care of last week, I'm going to move it over. Oh, I got to do an appointment today. So that got done. It was my birthday, which was yesterday, which was Saturday. And I don't have to do my daughter's car insurance that was taken care of. So I don't have anything left over, except for this, which I'm going to do today. So I like to go ahead and fill in the weeks and then we're like on the third row here. So I'm just going to go ahead and highlight this row and then I'll fill in the numbers. I'll probably speed through that or cut it out and come back and show you how it looks. Okay, so now we have our dates and then I just start listing the important things here first under this week. And one thing I know for sure is I need to design declutter. I've been on a declutter and I'm not really getting anywhere, but I need to do that. And I need to contact a friend about these clothes that I need to give away for a family in need whose house caught on fire. I need to get her up this week. So today, well, tomorrow is the 19th and I'm just going to put declutter down again. I have to see things more than once. On the 20th, my car note is due. On the 21st, my loan is due. 22nd, 23rd, and 4th, 25th. Oh, and then on the 19th is payday from Etsy and Shopify that have another payday on the 20th. Let's see, what else is there this week? I'm looking at the dates. Nothing rings a bell. Let's see. So far, this is all that we have. And it'll probably come to me as I start to design for the week. So I'm just going to leave that there up to the side. And then now I'm going to get into my weekly and what I'm going to do, I'm going to just take these happy planner numbers and then I'm going to put those on the dates. And again, I'll probably speed through that and then I'll be back. Okay, so now I have the dates in and I use the happy planner number stickers. So this is my thing now. What kid do I use? I really try to stick to a minimal and functional best as possible. But every now and then I like a little sticker. Okay, so what I think I'm going to do is I'm going to start off with my functional stickers. And I'm going to use these, these are from my shop. And I use these to list paydays and things like that, or a day that I am receiving some income. Or sometimes I use them for totals. So Monday. I'm going to put this here because I already know it's going to be Tuesday. Also you guys, I'm going to be doing a video on how to use stickers from my shop. And I'd love for you to tune in for that. This Monday have to work Tuesday is a day off. I use these from Susie Q Plans. And this day I'm off from the salon. For those of you who are new here, I'm a full-time hairstylist. And well, no, I'm not a part-time hairstylist now, but I used to be a full-time hairstylist. And then COVID hit and then I concentrated on my business. And now I just do it part-time so that I can focus on my business. If you didn't know, now you know. All right, now I'm just going to go through. I have a morning routine that I do every day. It involves coffee. That's part of my morning routine. I have my coffee. I meditate. I take the dog outside, but I like to put down a morning routine. And then I've been practicing a little bit on my lettering. And then I just put coffee. So I'm just going to do that all across the day. So there's no surprise there. And I really don't have to write that down, but that's something that I know is going to happen. Only time I don't, I still have coffee time. Like when I travel, like if I go see my daughter in Atlanta and I'm in a hotel. I get up, I get coffee from the Starbucks. At one point, the hotel that we normally stay at, they had it. But now with COVID the last time I was there, they didn't. So I went to the Starbucks. And so I will sit in my car and have coffee time, reflection time. But every morning I do this routine at home. I take the dog out, sit out back and just kind of reflect. So we already know that's going on. Here we have Etsy Payday or Shopify Payday. And also something else. Like I said, I like to, I used to decorate first when I was a more decorative planner. I would decorate first, decorate first, use most of the functional stickers. But now I write down what needs to be done. Then I come back and decorate. And sometimes it's just not room for decoration. So I like to write the important things down first. Okay. I'm going to do some laundry Monday, but I want to put this aside. And I'm going to go ahead and write down laundry because I haven't decided on a kit yet. So. And then I'm trying to get better at posting and being more consistent. So I have these stickers. These were an oops from a Nika's creative closet. And I'm going to use these to highlight my days that I want to do like post. I'm trying to get better you guys at posting on YouTube and Facebook. Because I have a Facebook group also if you're unaware. And so Monday will be a YouTube day. I'm going to upload that because that needs to be our money Mondays. I haven't done one in a while, but I'm getting back on it. And then I need to post to my Facebook group. Well, I did a post today. And then Tuesday is generally an off day for me for shop stuff, work. I try not to do anything on those days, but sometimes I end up doing stuff. So this day will probably be kind of blank. But this is the day that I'm going to take to declutter. And I was supposed to declutter in my office today, but I realized I'm like, Yes, you need to film a video. You don't film videos. I'm going to go ahead and take this long basket. And this is by Villa beautiful. Let it just kind of go over there because that will go into the declutter. Okay. And then I also need to do an Instagram post. I do post to my stories pretty much regularly, but I don't like my main page is something that I need to get better at. So what else do we have? We're still decluttering pretty much every day. I used to sell some declutter boxes and I need to bring those back because it's going to take me a while. We're a family of four, but now three with my daughter living in Atlanta and my husband has been helping. But he doesn't do like the dishes. You don't know where like my pots and all that stuff to go. So and I kind of hoarded a little polish. So I have got to get rid of those polishes old makeup. And on Tuesday, I'm going to tidy along with the declutter office. And I need to do my desk really bad. Okay. So I've done mainly pretty much what I'm going to do Sunday is normally a relaxed day. So again, this kit is by Rose shadow. And I'm not really using kids like talking about, but I just love, you know, I still like them. You know, I have to admit, I still like them. So I still use them. I got a couple sheets. I think a bunch. This is so pretty. So this is what it looks like. Again, this is Rose shadow. I have this in the dashboard. This kit will last me like forever because I don't use kits and I don't use a lot of boxes. I use this one for Tuesday. I don't have to work on this thing. And let's see. When I say this kit is plentiful, it is plentiful. So I'm going to take some of these dots here, these transparent dots and use them like as a checklist. I don't want to overdo it like I always do. I'm going to use it like as a checklist. Wednesday is three things that I want to record. I know I've already put them there, but here, which isn't much. Dining room, which is another table. And then since I use those dots there, I'll just follow through with another little dot, a different color. Then on Wednesday, we're going to do the closets and then drawers, dresser drawers. And I think this is pretty much all I can kind of handle as far as color. I don't know why it was just so beautiful. I just could not like leave it. I couldn't let it stay in the store in my shop. So I had to take it. So I'm just going to kind of balance everything out. And I usually add to the week as things go on, I try not to put too many things on my day because Mondays are always busy, but I'm going to use these total stickers from my shop for this day because I have my card note due. And then on the 21st, which I think is like the 20th. I have, we'll put it here though. I have $96.11 set. I've got to pay days of card note with the clutter. Okay, contact. So on Monday, I need to contact the young lady about the, about the clothes. So and then when I'm doing the laundry, I'm going to just rewash those clothes because I haven't worn them in a long time. So and they're size 16. So I'm going to, so I don't know, I'm going to have to find someone to use this kit. I think I'm going to use this kit in my like journal or something because I need space and I hate to take up a space and I would need it. So I don't know why I ordered these kids. I just don't know why. And then as you can see, this is one of my favorites from my shop, which is the glasses. And I'm going to put that off that day as well. So far, I'm kind of opening my book up for my clients since the shop has been kind of slow. That way I can make some money. Okay, let's get all of this back onto the planner. I don't know if I mentioned this earlier, but I'm waiting on some inserts from cloth and paper. So I'm waiting on some inserts from cloth and paper the monthly. And then I did get their weekly that I'm used to, but I'm really kind of seeing how I like this. So and then this is what it looks like. Pretty cute. We'll see. Okay, and then I need to go to this weekly part. Yeah, these rings are too small. So I'm also waiting on bigger rings. Again, if I didn't mention that. And I just like my planner is a little thick and fat. So I've been kind of feeling like, who are you doing this? You know, like, what are you planning? Like, what are you planning? Like, I just thought it doesn't. I haven't been able to really stick with it, I'll say. But that is it. Thank you all again for watching.

All right Hello, everybody. This is Nikolas be with reason. This is our weekly live stream. I'm joined by my colleague Zach Weismiller Zach hello, good to see you. Good to see you, too and we are joined today by the actor and Documentarian Alex winter whose new movie is the YouTube effect Alex. It's good to talk to you again It's always good to talk to both of you. We have been You have been directing for about 30 years, right? Didn't your first feature movie? I believe came out in 1993 that you directed and started Yeah, though I think it's scary to say my first professional directing job started in the mid 80s So it's getting close to 40, which maybe let's just stick with 30. Yeah, okay Well, it's a lot less. Yeah, it's you know, but in any case you have done documentaries in particular over the past 15 20 years downloaded which was a great study of Napster and unauthorized file sharing The deep web a look at Ross Ulbricht in the silk road Trust machine the Panama Papers and then I think most recently was Zappa, which came out about three years ago About Frank Zappa as a kind of ultra individualist free speech activist technological savant, etc We are now Talking about the YouTube effect your new movie that's out Zack let's play the trailer and then we're gonna come back and talk with Alex about what's in the movie Web giant Google will pay $1.6 billion to gobble up YouTube the making of YouTube There was no doubt in my mind that this was gonna be a huge trend of the future YouTube celebrities are laughing along with their fans all the way to the bank this kid Ryan and 22 million dollars this year They want growth growth growth. Everything's about growth. They are obligated to maximize shareholder value Add money that really affects the kind of content that you can make they're lost for hijacking people's attention You just have to get eyes on the video Everything on YouTube changed when the recommender algorithm was introduced It's not just algorithmic. It's very deliberate. I'm a weapon. I'm made to be thrown at you I think you took a very intimate format. You're watching one person talk to you When they start telling you about their beliefs and views that pack a real punch Now we're in this sort of misinformation apocalypse. I Don't agree that it is just reflection of society. It's changed society This is just made up by Bill Gates and them go online and look it up It's kind of dangerous how we are just waiting for there to be enough of these Digital car crashes and this digital intersection with no stoplight We don't figure out this problem. We're gonna lose what it means to be human All right, that's the trailer the movie is playing in select theaters around the country around the world and it's going on streaming services So you can watch it. I highly recommend that you do but Alex as a starting point What is the YouTube effect or what are the effects in particular that you're trying to bring attention to in the documentary? I Think it's the societal impact. I think that when I was Digging around in this community, which is now by far the largest online community on the planet by a lot a Lot bigger than anything that's in its rear view mirror I felt that there wasn't really a lot of Examination on Google and its media platform YouTube, which is what YouTube is. It's really Google's media front end and I Felt as if the the societal impact of that platform now that it's been around long enough, and it's so big and pervasive globally was really beginning to To attempt to unpack that they have a very close look at that and Gail and her the producer Had come to me and asked me if I was interested in collaborating with her on the story She had some access. She knew I would have access and it had obviously been on my mind for quite some time About my mind for probably a solid decade in terms of its significance and and its impact So it felt like a good time to jump in. Yeah, what you know, can you just very quickly sketch the? Well, actually Zach, why don't you run through some of the numbers because it's fascinating to think about You know what you said? Oh, I've been directing movies for 40 years. It's like I remember a time before I had a computer I realized I'm like, you know a mammoth or I guess a mastodon these days like a dying breed But the just to think about the world before YouTube is like a radically different place Zach. I'm sorry run through What's the reach of this? Yeah, you mentioned its tremendous growth? This is the first kind of slide that appears in your movie you mentioned December 2005 YouTube officially launches to over two million video views per day a month later That reaches 25 million views today. It has over 2.6 billion users worldwide It's the second most visited website by traffic in the world as of June 2023 right behind Google You described it as the front end of Google. So in a way, Google's got the one and two spots there It is the second most popular social network worldwide right behind Facebook Facebook at 2.9 billion users YouTube as we mentioned a little over 2.5 billion users And this data here is from kind of there one of their in recent internal reports Put together by Oxford economics that looks at the economic impact of YouTube and According to their internal report here Their creative ecosystem has contributed over thirty five billion dollars to US GDP in 2022 That's not counting kind of YouTube's parent company. That's just the platform the creators and then YouTube's creative ecosystem has supported they claim more than 390,000 full-time equivalent jobs in the US so, you know given that That meteoric rise that explosive growth I mean first of all, what do you think explains that how why did YouTube grow so quickly out of the gate? I Think there's a number of things at play and I think some of those are actually good things And I think to credit Susan Mazzischi all the way back in the day because she wasn't Obviously just the CEO of YouTube which she isn't now she was when we made the film She stepped step down subsequently, but she was also an instrumental part of the formulation of Google itself and a big part of how Google rose and very very smart and Very forward-thinking and I think that Susan saw in this fledgling little video platform What a lot of other people didn't which was to a degree the future? You know, we'd had Napster we'd we'd had a Sense by then that the world was moving online and that media was moving online and I think it was obvious to people like me I'm Napster in 1998 1999 So it would certainly have been obvious to anyone inside Silicon Valley if it wasn't obvious to most folks elsewhere And I think what what Susan saw and then what she subsequently had a hand in building with Steve Chen and Chad Hurley who were the two of the three founders of YouTube and then went on to run it for a while Was that this wouldn't just be a Facebook it wouldn't just be a Kind of a video jukebox of which there were many back in those days if you know like Nick and I are old So we remember what it was like to I still miss audio galaxy. I'm not gonna lie. There you go. Exactly and win app I'm gonna go So So there was a lot of these things floating around But nobody in those days the real the winners of the inner of the tech space We're gonna be those who figured out how to put their arms around most of these tools and then make them very easy for users to navigate and use Which is what YouTube was so it I think there was an understanding that it could become a video platform for for users to upload their own stuff a social media community Which is a component of that a place for entertainment for for visual and audio entertainment a place for creators It would then be monetized because they started monetizing their creators very early Smosh who were two of the first creators the fine brothers You know early on began to monetize almost immediately and in significant ways They were built, you know all four of these guys were teenagers practically and began to earn a very good living so I think that the that the vision for it was there and I think that the willingness to create an infrastructure that would that would equitably and fairly pay Content creators all over the world right of every color of every ethnicity of every type of gender It was really Radical what they set out to do in that way And what it has grown into Now is by far the largest media platform on the planet. Yeah, I think it would be well useful Especially for some of our younger viewers who might not remember those earliest days of YouTube to just glimpse back at a second As to what it used to look like it was very you know before monetization and professionalization It was very much just like your amateurs uploading just a dumb video you took and kind of the the primary I mean we can just look at the very first video that was put up That one of the founders kind of set the tone for early youtube. Uh, this is All right, so here we are one of the elephants Cool thing about these guys is that they have really Really really long From and that's that's cool And that's pretty much all I was to say So no no disinformation there. That is an absolute truth elephants do Absolutely, that's got a I think a couple hundred million views racked up by now, but um, you know, uh We wanted to talk about uh, you know before we get into some of the negatives that your documentary Raises could you talk a little bit about youtube's upsides? What are some of the the best contributions to our culture to Video and filmmaking that you think youtube has made over the years There are so many uh and google as well And I sort of mentioned them in the same breath because they really are one company even though there are elements to youtube that that are separate. Um They are really one company with with a with a single ethos and uh And a kind and I'd say the positives of that are a commitment to To innovation and kind of human evolution using the culture itself Uh as its primary product. Um, and I think a lot of that has been Extremely vitally important to global culture. Um, in in some ways so in such vast ways that it's almost Diminishes its power To start to break apart little things like oh, it's helpful to figure out how to put AAA batteries into the back of your radio It's like, you know, it gives you like mundane information Well, it's also the repository of basically all of visual human content that's ever existed Since the dawn of content being recorded in any form and even not recorded. Um, you know But re-implemented in some form another by the way of explainers. So it's it's our it is our library, alexandra I know that's a a terrifying concept, especially to librarians Because there is so much misinformation there, but it there were there were a lot of misinformation There was a lot of information in the library of alexandria too, right? There was and there's a lot of misinformation in your in your local public library So that's just and that's sort of my point is where I get kind of, you know, uh Disconcerted by the way we look at at the rise of new technology having been around these stories for a long time Is we other it right? It's this other thing, but it's not another thing. It's really a natural evolution of human Innovation and these are tools that that we have evolved to create Um, and they're just a part of the fabric of being humans. So youtube specifically I would credit them with as I said earlier with very specifically and intentionally monetizing The democratization of culture something that we saw happening with napster that the record industry I would argue still has not successfully done as well as youtube has done I would even argue that my industry which is on strike right now has not figured it out as well as youtube has You can you can create on youtube. You can be a trans You know african artist in a in a micro nation And make a crazy good living if you have access to these tools and can uh, you will get monetized You'll build an audience. You'll the gates are down. You're reaching people all over the world Um, and so that's an amazing thing that I think they did intentionally and very successfully I think the breadth of information is vitally important to have at the fingertips of anyone around the world It just removes gatekeeping and it removes. Uh, it democratizes information I mean unless you're in china where they can literally censor you right Uh, and I mean just to kind of build on that the you know, one of the early sensations on youtube was watching chinese kids Uh lip syncing to the backstreet boy songs and things like that and it created your gangman style the rise of k-pop Yeah, yeah, I mean it created a global village right that marshal mcclune could only kind of speculate about in the 60s And it built off of the you know those signal developments in the 90s that were a lot of it was around the internet but it was other, you know, just the decreasing price Of uh, technology so that you know the the cost produce and consume culture under whatever Circumstances you wanted whether it's authorized unauthorized legal illegal all became much cheaper I just you know part of the upside for us At reason was we went online uh with reason tv, uh, as it was called in to that october 2007 We've been on youtube since 2007 and we've had something like 255 million views of our over 3 000 videos that we've put up. We've only made about 500 000 dollars all told so it's not like we're making a living out of it But you know, it's better than zero But that idea that you can bring together Information shared and distributed and it might find a global market as humongous You know one of the kind of examples in this it seemed like it wasn't that long ago But it actually was kind of but cony 2012 is an example of a documentary which there's a lot of reasons to be You know critical of it, but it was about a warlord in africa who had a child army That became a massive global phenomenon in 2012 I had it kind of shows the power of youtube to Kind of galvanize people in ways good and bad. Um, the you know your, um Um, the the you know and you you touch on this the uh, youtube one of the most popular things on it are explainer videos and how to videos, you know, and that has gone massively large, but let's Talk a little bit about the negative sides that you roll out about youtube in this because this documentary Is not really a celebration of youtube as much as a critique of it So uh zach do you want to talk about? I mean, maybe we should start talking with about the rabbit hole problem This gentleman who I brought a slide up of is calib. He posted a video here called my descent into the alt-right pipeline He's a major character featured in your documentary What does calib's story exemplify for you? Well, it actually exemplifies that we're beyond the rabbit hole That there was a period when the youtube recommender algorithm, uh, was aggressively Propagandizing viewers because you could go on if you had a predilection to look at, you know A an influencer that had a certain type of rhetoric that was fairly benign You could very quickly get Recommended much more extreme Uh influencers and content that would that would as the term Illustrates would take you down a rabbit hole. It's very difficult to get rabbit hole today They did in in fairness to youtube do a lot of work on that algorithm In fact with calib kind of as a as a test case We didn't put this in the films or pointless But when I filmed him which was at the watergate hotel because we're we're cheeky like that We we did a a test with him where I had him go on his laptop and try to rabbit hole himself and he couldn't the algorithm just wasn't going to do that And so the reason I was interested in calib was calib, you know was already on his way to towards extremist views and YouTube and the influencers they had on there at the time, which were very aggressively extreme extremists Like stephan malinu who was a big part of the influence Of the the shooter and the in the christ church new zealand shooting was heavily influenced by stephan I got stephan deplatformed eventually um But it was really about where we are post this rabbit hole idea the whole idea that misinformation is so proliferant The monetization of propaganda is so proliferant Now um in our current culture that we're almost all being rabbit hole or almost all Sort of in a blasé way accepting of of misinformation or flat-out disinfo um And in calib's case he was kind of pulled out of that extremist thinking by another person on youtube Which was madly when uh, which we used to kind of prove a point that you know, the some of the harms are here But a lot of the antidote for those harms can be found in the same place can be found in youtube itself Yeah, at one point you actually quote calib is saying I wasn't radicalized by youtube I was already radicalized, but he was talking about that the videos that he was watching killed his empathy But then he comes across contra points As she is better known and it's kind of fascinating that you know To to see youtube is is not You know an engine of disaster or to the extent that it is it also becomes an agent of empathy as well Exactly, I think that that's really exemplifies the internet itself. It's the it's the whole spectrum of human Experience the the issues to focus on the harms And what I wanted to get at in the film was a I wanted to put a human face on all of these issues because I think that's important And that's what docs are very good at you can read a million articles about youtube and about social media and see a million documentaries that don't really Humanize a core cast of characters that give you an emotional understanding of the issues of play Um and so from the people who actually experienced it not like actors or reenactments or something so That was very important to me But I also wanted to get past this idea of the algorithm which in in my opinion is kind of a Diversion tactic by these monopolized tech companies to just flood you with confusing tech rhetoric That just makes the average person's eyes glaze over and then you never get into the details of how you can maybe make these places work better Um, and yes, there are algorithms and yes, there are a lot of engineers who need to be working on algorithms But most of us are not tech engineers Most of us are including the people who run google and youtube are just people with basic incentives Um, and there was these basic incentives that I was most interested in focusing on with this film Which in this case is their business model, which is an ad revenue based business model Which is attaches a dollar to content that holds you on platform And to them just like the yellow journalists of yesteryear Um, as we all know the most salacious type of content is normally the most Ad-friendly and that is the case with youtube in a way that I think is problematic So you mentioned that Now things have changed and you even tried to get k-lib to rabbit hole himself and could not Does that indicate to you that something has shifted in the The incentives, um, is that that the advertisers started to get uncomfortable with the Kind of press that youtube was getting and therefore they decided to shift the algorithm. I mean how How did the business model work to Sort correct itself in this case It's the opposite. Um, it's the opposite of of it getting better of there being less harmful information of advertisers getting wary What it what it was Was that the they don't need To rabbit hole you to get you to watch salacious content disinformation is now pervasive, right? I mean I have friends who are On all sides of the political aisle who flirt with extremely bananas uh theories of either flat earth or just very kakamani ideas about About the world that are not fact-based the sort of non fact-based Uh culture is pervasive. So you don't need there the incentives aren't there to to force you algorithmically Um into this kind towards this kind of content as joe politzer knew in the late 1800s. It's just human nature, right? You are you are pre You are pre wired to connect more intensely With hyperbolic angry negative content than you are with middle of the road fact-based content So it actually they don't need to do that. It's really a human issue It's the parasocial relationship of having someone looking into webcam like i'm looking at you guys and you're looking back at me It's that very human non algorithmic parasocial component that makes youtube so powerful And when you when you attach that to content then you can monetize that Yeah, when you say it's it's you know negative or you know in hyperbolic and things like that How does that explain? You know the emergence of somebody like mr. Beast on youtube who's one of the largest You know channels And characters and it's if anything it's relentlessly upbeat. It's like barny the dinosaur, you know post You know going through a puberty or something like that Um, is it actually is it negative like salacious negative hyperbolic? Is that the Is that how they keep people watching or is it More catering to what people are interested in? I think it's both I think that when you deal with with media a media platform as big as youtube of which there is no larger media platform Um, you are going to be targeting massively disparate demographics mr. Beast For instance my middle school kid loves mr. Beast and all of his friends in middle school of mr. Beast But yeah, I've never watched a single mr. Beast video in my entire life And neither have my two older children not one not a single one So, um, you're just talking about about demographics And I think that's where it's a business model problem Because two two advertisers are looking at a pie chart of numbers and they're not differentiating at all Between mr. Beast and Stephen Crowder, right? But of course there is a difference between mr. Beast and Stephen Crowder Because mr. Beast is like doing the kind of benign You know, whatever come in and earn a million dollars by jumping off this bridge And Stephen Crowder is calling for civil war after the FBI goes down to Mar-a-Lago to look at at trump's classified documents and And to to an advertiser It's just it's just data points. It's the same can I uh before Zach has a clip that he's going to run but just before we move on from the question of misinformation or disinformation I agree with you Absolutely that most of my friends believe things that are insane and not fact-based Sometimes they get support from books. Sometimes they get support You know from videos or you know, maybe even from reason articles or something like that But how do you define that? Um in a way that doesn't just become I don't agree with this and hence it is disinformation or it's misinformation or it's malinformation And needs to be called out There are very clear cut definitions to the difference between misinformation and disinformation that are generally used misinformation essentially refers to Information that is untrue, but maybe benign. It may be an accidental mistake. It may be A fact that is incorrect disinformation is ideologically manufactured To uh with an agenda So it is not so much that this is where I think it gets misconstrued by the public or when we get into like I would argue um kind of misunderstanding the first amendment or free speech issues Disinformation is intentionally targeted information that that is literally ideologically manufactured to create A response it is it is actually propaganda and a lot of the dark money Funded influencers on youtube that are pumping out disinformation Have very specific political ideologies that they are that they are servicing So it isn't accidental and it isn't something that ends up getting contextualized by the end user It is it is created intentionally for x effect. I think the crouter example is a good one I think that that inciting your you know four million viewers Uh to civil war uh based on a completely legal um and fairly casual Visit to our ex-president by an FBI member based on class of information Which is no different than they would do to a democratic president Or a different republican member That is a very good example of disinformation. That's harmful What I to return to the uh contra points natalie win example for a second because what what I find really interesting about that channel and about what natalie is doing there is She's kind of embracing This landscape that you're describing or just like this is she's just accepting like this is the water we're swimming in It's a very personal medium And um, she just directly engages with the culture war arguments Dissects the dishonest rhetoric and kind of jumps into the arena Instead of sitting on the sideline begging youtube to de-platform or demonetize people And does it in a very stylized way as we can see here? This is kind of the aesthetic established. Uh, that's designed to maximize engagement kind of Do what you need to do on youtube to Reach an audience and reach outside of an echo chamber and build a following and In this case, there's evidence that that approach is an effective tactic What is your takeaway from What's the contra points channel has done? My takeaways and I think this is natalie's having spoken to her about it is that you work with the tools you have Um, so I think when you have something that has forward. I mean youtube has four Point six or four point seven billion Video views per day So there's a lot of people who don't have the tools at natalie's disposal natalie's working with what natalie has Uh to be involved. I know that natalie that contra points is very Um supportive of civic engagement and civic response um So, you know, she has been able to build up a massive audience on youtube, which is extremely rare I would know I would also add Um, so there it is not by any means the only tool that people should be using carry goldberg is using the tools at her disposal as a lawyer to literally create Lawsuits and go after um for for very specific arms based on very specific Issues on platform. Um, so I think it's incumbent. I mean my general opinion is it's all hands on deck Um, I think that because and and to be fair to google Including google's hands on deck, right? Um and including fixes from within their own company Um, which are basic. I just think that we've never seen in human history Uh, this is this industrial revolution the digital technological industrial revolution that we're currently in has moved at an accelerated pace The likes of which we've never seen so we're all playing catch up a little bit And the yeah, you know youtube's uh CEO or I guess outgoing ceo susan wuchitski Last year was talking on all the this very topic In davos at the world economic forum, uh in 2022 I want to play a clip from that just to get a so everyone can get a sense of How youtube is thinking about this, you know from the top, uh, and then get your reaction to The proposals that are being laid out there Investing a huge amount to make sure that we're fighting misinformation and There are a number of different ways that we look at this So the first would be from a policy standpoint We would look at content that we would think about in terms of being violent of our policies So if you look at covid for example, we came up with 10 different policies that we said would be violent of like an example of that Would be saying that covid came from something other than a virus and we did see people Attacking 5g equipment for example because they thought that it was causing covid And the second one would be really raising up authoritative information so If you are dealing with a sensitive subject like news, uh, health Science, we are going to make sure that what we're recommending is coming from a trusted well-known Publisher that can be reliable if there's content that's borderline content That technically meets our policy but is lower quality that's content that we basically will not Recommend to our users our users could still access it and then lastly We're just really careful about what we monetize so we always want to make sure that there's no incentive So for example with regard to climate change, we don't monetize any kind of climate change material So there's no incentive for you to keep publishing that material that is propagating something that is generally understood as Uh, not accurate information So taking down really blatant, uh, this information like that 5g towers are call are causing COVID-19 You know de-ranking certain sources upranking authoritative sources and then demonetizing Controversial debates that she believes are spreading misinformation Is that an agenda that you think is a positive one for youtube to be pursuing? I think it would be great to see them do that So they're not they're not doing it. No, no, they're not doing that Like but here's my reaction to that because I I do think it's Totally understandable and appropriate for a company like youtube to not want videos about 5g conspiracies running rampant on a platform. I don't agree with that though. That's not true They're actually incentivized to have a lot of material like that In fact google came under fire over the last few weeks in terms of how it's it's spending their ad dollars and not spending them In areas that they told their advertisers they were spending them So no, I would actually argue that they that while philosophically they may not like the idea That they're monetizing this type of content. They are absolutely monetizing this type of content But they they have taken those that sort of stuff some of them You can find all that stuff. It's all that stuff is there on youtube all of it Is there one all of it the flip side to all this is that I've seen what happens When you know misinformation has become somewhat of a buzzword and I've seen what happens when the net Is cast too wide. I mean even reason tv we got a strike Or this was a video I produced. It was about these biohackers attempting to kind of create a knockoff Covid vaccine and was called medical misinformation I mean, I just happened to know in fact that this was not medical misinformation It was me reporting on something somebody was trying to do but it got caught and it was like Six seven months after it went up that it got caught in this dragnet. Yeah, and so that is That's the kind of impossible thing about regulating misinformation at scale You know, whether you're a government or a private company. How do you call it? I don't think that's true though I don't think impossible is the right word I think that it's early days and oftentimes because these companies aren't incentivized to police themselves They do it very badly and they do it with a with a blunt hammer as opposed to a scalpel And it is burly like because for sure zack. There are people who Create music on on youtube who get their own content flag Like really even beyond what the example you just gave like yeah really we we are constantly being accused of Infringing our own copyright for exactly that happens all the time now I will this we would need five hours for this conversation I will tell you and you know how I feel about this stuff. I made the napster movie Yeah, I will tell you that that using copyright and IP law In this area to try to rectify this stuff is generally disastrous, right? And I will and so I'm not like some big, you know Let's just come down on everyone with with harsh or copyright law It will generally hurt the folks that you're trying to help and help the folks that you're trying to to get protection from It's just the way those laws are constructed Um, so I'm not sitting here saying that stuff is easy, but I will tell you that it's a heck of a lot Simpler than people are making it out to be and you have to start somewhere So yes, a lot of the tools right now are very blunt, but they will definitely get less blunt as we go along And we certainly don't want to do nothing Well, can I ask? Yeah, can I ask about that because you know in in a way it seems like you're you want to bring back or maybe You know, I Realistically probably has never gone away But this idea that there's a guardian class that must control what people are exposed to because they really can't handle things They can't sort things out themselves And you know this goes back to when the novel was introduced when radio was introduced movies You know comic books etc rock music in particular, you know, and I think about You know your documentary on zappa, you know, this is redolent with there's certain types of material Which should not be permitted Um because it will have a negative effect on people who can't understand it or can't critique it Um, is there you know, is there a contradiction in what you're saying between? You know your earlier work and your kind of emphasis on people being allowed to express themselves No, because I think we're talking about there's an enormous enormous Spread there and I think that if you're disinformation Being information that is specifically created to cause harm Those are basic safeguards. I don't think there's a lot of that doesn't enter sort of free speech territory um, you know if Someone's being called upon to go kill trans people and someone goes and kills a trans person No, I think it you know, if it's I mean there's fighting words and true threats that are you know, have been worked through Yeah, and there's a lot of study showing Showing the impact of fighting words on actual fighting and I think that that is where The arguments for everything being fair game are not valid um So I mean and so like when steven krauters says we need a civil war because my You know god, you know boy god trump is being Uh investigated by the the fbi that that crosses a line that If somebody's saying, you know, well, we need a total reordering of society based on Recent political events that would be sure. I mean it's also intentionally being done and funded by by some By dark money interests that are trying to create these harms in this violence You know as we saw with the trump indictment From yesterday the intention with the january 6 insurrection was to kill the enemy It was actually to commit that violence more people Were radicalized to go to the january 6 insurrection by youtube than any other Internet-based platform that is a a study with actual numbers attached to it. So you've got to start somewhere There yeah, I'm not I'm not convinced of that. I mean january 6 was organized in you know, what's app groups facebook groups? I mean private, you know Encrypted communications the the people who shout out but the prolifer the proliferation of the ideology was proliferated by youtube I mean the bellicam studies is very comprehensive Uh, yeah you know that there there's um The near the end of the film you start introducing some possible policy prescriptions you bring up the Famous internet law or you know very kind of bedrock internet law section 230 of the communications and decency act and uh, that's uh is essentially says that Platforms are not liable for user-generated content on their platforms You know whether or not they moderate or don't moderate just you know getting involved with moderation does not mean you're suddenly Liable for every single thing that someone posts on your platform This has been something that's been attacked by both democrats and republicans and your film seems to also Uh call for some sort of reform needed around section 230 What is what is it that you would like to see changed about that that fundamental law of the internet? Um, actually it doesn't uh the film doesn't do that Um, in fact, I would argue that we that our general take Not that my take is that important because we're really just trying to show all sides around this debate But section 230 is an incredibly difficult Thing to reform and it is really what provides the safeguards for the internet period um and tampering with it in a In a blunt way would actually as I said before cause harm to the very people that That we that many people would be looking to protect and it would it would hyper empower the monopolies there's a reason why certain factions in extremist sides of political thinking want to abolish 230 because It would essentially Allow for an enormous amount of censorship And it would erase enormous amounts of content from the internet that is providing very important Views and and giving voice to people who need voice who would not have it without 230 So my general feeling on this stuff's 230 content moderation All of it just to be very clear is that none of this is easy or simple and there really isn't a there is not A clearly defined way forward to say police the internet or regulate the internet. There isn't one um my point is that The the impact of these platforms on society is inarguably huge That some of these farms are politically motivated and funded or just ideologically Motivated and funded and that should be called out and that we shouldn't as citizens sit on the sidelines And just throw up our hands and say well, this stuff's too complicated. We shouldn't do anything We should start to look at what we can do. What however that looks I'm not convinced that's why we're forming 230 personally But i'm also not i'm not the head of ethics at berkeley like honey ferrita's right who does believe there's a way You should ask honey, right, right, honey. How do you how do you look at the revelations of things like the twitter files? And and reason got a cache of documents from facebook where you know, this is also something Not quite new but it you know It became apparent that there was a huge amount of government censorship without calling it that where You know people in both the trump administration the biden administration We can certainly assume, you know, george w bush and obama as well saying to platforms. Hey De-prioritize that kill this don't push this um Does that change the complexity of the task that uh that is at hand that this idea that there is You know the private sector and the public sector Public speech private speech is kind of out the window now I think that it what it does which is good is it shows the specificity of it Which is something we're talking about in the film that there are ideologies at play There are political players at play. It isn't just the town square There are people with agendas that are funded funded agendas that are giving that are using this golly You was parasocial influencer to say very specific things or to attempt behind the scenes to curtail the saying of very specific things So I actually think it's important that we understand that politics and and certain Players are involved in trying to shape the language or curtail the language that's out there I think that's the look. These are the beginning of conversations that we need to have this way This is by no means the end of anything I've got a last question because I know you've got a run in a minute. Um, you directed another great documentary called deep web about the ross Obrex saga And as such, you know, I'm sure you're well aware of the that encrypted communication messengers and platforms and Decentralized alternatives to youtube have taken off. Um, as well as centralized competitors like rumble How does that change the situation in terms of how you think about these issues of radicalization and misinformation and free speech If there really is increasingly no central node to kind of enforce any of this I think that there is because I think at the end of the day the the large scale populace Is mostly on the put in the main platforms the the numbers of the of the platforms You just mentioned or or even silk road That was my problem with the way ross was being treated ross albricht in that instance because he was being called a kingpin Um, and you know, even the drugs that were being sold They were like the amount of money and that was like what you get on a street corner in Idaho, right? So they're actually fairly small Um the and I do worry about the breaking of encryption Around regulation which we're starting to see in the eu is a potential problem with the way they're coming at regulating the internet That um would also potentially destroy encryption, which would be incredibly dangerous for a lot of people who rely on encryption for their safety um, so I think that that uh I'm a big believer as you Both of you guys well know in um the innovation and the freedom of information and encryption and uh open source technology But I don't see that being I mean nor cannot be stopped, but I don't see it being stopped I just don't think that's the primary way that the average people get their information Alex, what is the best way to uh catch the youtube effect? Uh, well, we will be on digital on august 8th. So we'll really be everywhere especially I mean in any english-speaking country. I think we're hitting other places internationally a little later But uh, you'll be able to find us on sort of your usual platforms You can go to my website Alex winter dot com and find us, but we will be Very easy to see on august 8th right now. We're in select theaters final final question You you were talking briefly before about participatory culture essentially and this is there's a long arc Again as the production costs and consumption costs of media become cheaper We can look back at this for 500 years or 50 years or 10 years um Participatory culture seems to be the answer Make the final case like how should people get off the sidelines in order to Enter the scrum to fight for the world that they want is youtube the medium for that primarily or I think that you know, and this is maybe a it's not an intentionally provocative thing to say But I think people need to lean into these technologies and not away from them I think that they're a big part of our life and you have to get involved I know my kids are safe because i'm on youtube. I know who these people I know who the good apples are in the back. It's like that's parenting, right? It's just like I wouldn't send my kid into a neighborhood without knowing the neighborhood or let him be with someone that I didn't think was safe Um, I all three of my kids have been on youtube their entire life And not one of them got like black filled or red filled or whatever whatever it is the kids say, um So, uh, it's you know, I think leaning in Um, I think having an awareness that these technologies are not necessarily good or bad They are just a part of human evolution and innovation. So be part of them use them understand them be discerning Uh, so I think that you're in their participation Can come from wherever like you were saying about contra points again comes from wherever your strength is Um, and and and really understanding what's going on in the world in sort of a broad way Thank you so much. Alex winter the new movie is the youtube effect. Thanks again for talking to reason Yeah, it was great. As always you had great questions

Graphing Solution: Applications of Exponential Functions
|
This lesson is designed to help students apply mathematical models that use basic exponential functions and to show them how to solve basic equations involving exponential functions using graphs. Here we use a graphing approach to solve this equation, which is particularly valuable if students have not encountered logarithms.

Let us see how we can solve the equation 2 to the x equals negative x plus 11. This is a nice problem where students can break it down into a system of equations, one of which is exponential and the other one which is linear. So let the left hand side of the equation become y equals 2 to the x and the right hand side of the equation let it be y equals negative x plus 11. We can do this now on a graph. We will use a graphing method to solve this because at this stage students probably have not been exposed to solving exponential equations so they do not know how to work with logarithms and so on. So let us use this graphing approach y equals 2 to the x and let the second equation be y equals negative x plus 11. Now let us see how nice. So we see that the functions intersect and we can touch the point where they intersect and we can see that that is the point 3 eighths, that is the point of intersection. When we go back to the system of equations we can verify that solution. The solution was the point 3 eighth and x equals 3 y equals 8. Let us see if that is indeed the case. What is the value of y when x is 3? Well that is indeed 8, 8 is equal to 8. What about here? What is the value of y when x is equal to negative 3? Well we can readily see that also 8 is equal to 8. So you can see that the solution is indeed x equals 3, x is equal to 3 and the function assumes the value of 8.

1.3.1 Use Case: Fast-tracking COVID-19 response using DHIS2 Health Data Toolkit
|
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, health systems globally have been stretched to their limits, requiring prompt and effective responses. Our video dives deep into how DHIS2 has been instrumental in helping countries manage this crisis. From tracking the spread of the virus to managing vaccination programs, we'll unpack how DHIS2's scalable toolkits have made a difference in almost 60 countries.

On January 31st, 2020, the WHO declared a new coronavirus to be a global health emergency. Since then, we have all witnessed the spread of the virus and the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic. In countries around the world, health systems needed to react quickly to assess and monitor the disease outbreak and to try to control its spread. This kind of public health activity is known as disease surveillance. To conduct a COVID-19 disease surveillance, countries needed health facilities to report a number of data points on a daily or weekly basis, including how many new cases were reported, how many deaths occurred due to COVID-19, how many health workers got the infection, how many cases resulted in hospitalizations and discharges, how many tests were conducted and how the infection was transmitted. To address this urgent need, countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas turned to DHIS-2. In many of these countries, such as Sri Lanka and Rwanda, COVID-19 modules were quickly added to existing national DHIS-2 systems while some others, such as Norway, deployed DHIS-2 for the first time in response to this pandemic. Countries were able to rapidly deploy these systems by using the DHIS-2 COVID-19 Surveillance and Response Toolkit, which included implementation guidance, training material and DHIS-2 metadata packages. Metadata packages are installable DHIS-2 configuration files that allow countries to fast-track their implementation of DHIS-2 for specific health programs by starting from installable templates instead of a blank slate. One example was the COVID-19 Weekly Aggregate Surveillance Package, which features an aggregate data entry form with six sections to collect information on new confirmed and probable cases, new confirmed and probable deaths, health worker infection and death, hospitalization and discharges, tests conducted and transmission classification. Along with this data set, the package included validation rules to perform checks on the data that was collected. An example of a validation rule would be that the number of reported COVID-19 cases cannot be greater than the number of tests performed. These validation rules provide a straightforward data quality check before any analytic outputs are created from the collected data. With the data reported and validated on a weekly basis, countries were able to answer their initial questions by creating visualizations of the data reported using dashboards. Dashboards are designed to quickly find, share and analyze important outputs related to a program. In this case, the dashboard displays cumulative tests conducted, cases reported, cases hospitalized, cases discharged and deaths in charts, pivot tables and maps. While this example focuses primarily on aggregate COVID-19 surveillance, in countries where there was a need for more granular data or to monitor individual COVID-19 cases over time, Tracker was used for COVID-19 case-based surveillance, port of entry control, contact tracing, test scheduling, processing and notification, test certificate generation and more. By early 2021, COVID-19 vaccines started to become available in limited quantities, which led to a need for countries to plan and monitor how many vaccines were administered and to whom. Since most COVID-19 vaccines required two doses to be effective, it was necessary to keep a record of the individual people who were vaccinated to certify that they completed the full vaccine schedule and to monitor them for potential adverse effects after vaccination. Aggregate data collection was not sufficient to meet this need, so many countries use DHIS-2 to collect individual vaccination data using Tracker. Tracker allowed these countries to modify their existing DHIS-2 immunization registries to include COVID-19 vaccines. Others use the DHIS-2 COVID-19 vaccine delivery toolkit, installing the Tracker metadata package for individualized patient registration to track each vaccination case over time. This DHIS-2 Tracker program allows, among other features, for longitudinal tracking, follow-up of the individuals and the strengthening of vaccine safety surveillance. Patient records in this system can be searched and updated in various ways, including by scanning QR codes. Health workers can easily view lists of patients and their status to help with scheduling and follow-up. And all individual patient data can be automatically aggregated in DHIS-2 into dashboards, maps, and charts to provide a high-level overview to support vaccination campaign planning, prioritization, and resource allocation. In addition, many countries customize their DHIS-2 systems to include features for patient self-registration for vaccination appointments, automatic confirmation messages by email or SMS, and the generation of electronic vaccination certificates accessible by QR code. This is possible because while DHIS-2 metadata packages provide a starting point for configurations, countries are free to further customize and adapt them as desired to meet specific local needs. Both the COVID-19 Surveillance and Response Toolkit, alongside the COVID-19 Vaccine Delivery Toolkit, are components in a larger collection of resources known as the DHIS-2 Health Data Toolkit. The DHIS-2 Health Data Toolkit contains toolkits that can help a variety of health programs beyond COVID-19, including malaria, tuberculosis, maternal and child health, and more. Each toolkit is designed in collaboration with public health experts from the WHO, UNICEF, the CDC, and other partners, and is intended to make it easier for countries to implement DHIS-2 systems based on global standards, guidelines, and best practices. In summary, we've seen how almost 60 countries around the world use DHIS-2 to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, including using aggregate data for disease surveillance and tracker data for immunization programs. Countries were able to respond quickly by using DHIS-2 COVID-19 toolkits, including installable metadata packages, which allowed them to rapidly implement digital solutions based on international standards to respond locally to these public health challenges. These resources are part of the DHIS-2 Health Data Toolkit, which includes resources for many health programs. Using the toolkit helps countries benefit from pre-designed configurations that can be further customized and tailored to specific country needs, including changing needs over time. This shows how countries benefit both from DHIS-2 being a flexible, customizable platform and from its use as a dissemination platform for global standards.

In summary, our study found that cutaneous malignancies, mainly SCC and melanoma, were the leading cause of death in patients with dermatologic diseases at a third-level university hospital serving as a dermatology referral centre. Drug reactions were also a major cause of death, with sepsis being the most common immediate cause of death. This article was authored by Meena Saber, Geeta Fagihee, Sadmi Mohamed Sainthafori, and others.

PONTICS DESIGN -FACTORS
|
Pontic is the artificial tooth in the fixed or removable partial dentures; that is, the suspended portion of the fixed partial denture (bridge) replacing the missing natural tooth or teeth. The pontic may be fabricated from cast metal or combination of metal and porcelain. Designing a pontic is not simple; an exact anatomic replica of the tooth in the space would be difficult to manage. The requirements of the pontic design include esthetics, biocompatibility, function, phonetics, patient comfort, and maintenance of healthy tissue on the edentulous ridge.Pontic design selection depends on the location of the edentulous area. Controversies exist for the gingival embrasure space and design. Some considered less plaque accumulation with space closure while other proposed open embrasure space for oral hygiene maintenance pontic.
Pontic resembles the tooth morphology and may be altered to meet extra demands in certain clinical scenarios such as in case of convex tissue surfaces and narrow occlusal table. Decreasing the buccolingual width lead to decrease in interferences in eccentric movements. Some authors considered normal size occlusal table, whereas other considered it to be of minimum importance. Pontic should be out of tissue contact when proceeding from facial to lingual.
Different shapes of pontic are selected according to the position of the edentulous space, amount of bone resorption, and operator's and patient's preferences.It is recommended that the prosthodontist or the dental practitioner should advise the dental laboratory about the shape of the desired pontic for the fixed prosthesis.There is a variety of pontic designs (such as ridge lap, ovate, and conical) for mandibular and maxillary arches

Hello everyone welcome back to another session in dentistry amma so today's session is about the factors involving in designing a pontic so last session we completed the Pontic designs that is various designs we use in fixed partial denture they are sanitary, rich lap, conical, o-weight and phasings that is Pontic facing true Pontic pontics so this session is about the factors to be considered while designing a Pontic so basically we have three major categories to be considered while designing a Pontic they are biological, mechanical and aesthetic so in biologic factors we have the rich contact then the oral hygiene considerations then the Pontic material and occlusal forces so we should aim at maintaining and preserving the residual rich the abutments opposing teeth and supporting tissues so in rich contact pressure-free contacts between the tissue and Pontic is indicated okay so you know the Pontic will be compressing the tissue or the ridge in most of the cases so always try to keep it pressure-free that is there should be a space between the tissue and Pontic or the pressure should be minimal because we need to prevent ulceration and inflammation of soft tissues if any blanching of tissues occur during try-in we should identify the pressure areas using any disclosing medium and the Pontic should be reconditioned until the tissue contact is becoming passive regarding the oral hygiene considerations it is main problem of Pontic that it causes irritation that is because of the microbial plaque accumulation underneath the Pontic so there will be toxins released from plague then there will be calculus formation and the chances of tissue irritation and inflammation so unlike rpd we just cannot remove fpd for cleaning so normally where tissue contact occurs gingeral area of the Pontic is inaccessible okay so devices such as proxy pressures or super flows can be used to clean the underneath of Pontic surface if Pontic has a concavity or depression in its gingeral surface there will be plague accumulation which leads to inflammation so therefore fpd should be checked and corrected before cementation once it is cemented it's very difficult to alter it because it is a fixed partial dents unlike removable partial dents so in Pontic material it should have good aesthetics where it requires and it should be biocompatible and there should be enough strength to withstand the occlusal forces and also the rigidity then it should have good longevity the fpd is we should make it as rigid as possible because any flexural forces during mastication or para function may cause a pressure on the ginger and there are chances of fracturing of veneering material or the Pontic and the occlusal contacts should not occur at metal porcelain junctions because if the contact junction if the contact is at the metal porcelain junction there is high chances of fracture and the Pontic material it should have ability to resist plaque accumulation because the amount of surface roughness is directly proportional to the plaque accumulation surface roughness is directly proportional to plaque so less surface roughness that is more polished Pontic we have less plaque so the most ideal material is gold then the glazed porcelain and ceramic so it is having the most polished surface so it requires very less plaque compared to porcelain and the least one is ceramic depends upon the surface roughness and the polished surface now regarding the occlusal forces to withstand the occlusal forces has been suggested to reduce the buckling dimension of the Pontic by 30 percentage so 30 percentage reduction in buckling direction but in case of para functional habits or accidental biting on a hard object this may not be efficient okay normal cases this would be ideal but para function patient has para functional habits or accidental biting this would not be sufficient so that will disrupt the harmonious and stable occlusal relationship so normal Pontic width at least at the occlusal third is recommended so we can keep the normal Pontic width at the occlusal third okay so but when the ridges collapsed bucklingly this is not possible so always try to keep the normal Pontic width at least the occlusal third so that was all about the biological factors now we have the mechanical considerations in mechanical consideration that these are the factors we need to think about while placing a Pontic that is the factors which can leads to fracture of the processes or display displacement of the retainer so they are the choice of material that is if we have a poor choice of material it will leads to the fracture of processes and if our design is poor or the framework design is not good that also leads to the fracture then the preparation we need to have a good preparation with adequate clearance if the preparation is not good that also leads to the fracture and the occlusion occlusion will leads to fracture if it is not proper so when metal ceramic Pontics are chosen extending the porcelain unto the occlusal surface to achieve better aesthetics should be carefully evaluated because it is high chance of fracture when it is extended to the occlusal side then porcelain may also abrade the opposing dentition if the occlusal contacts are on enamel or dentin so we need to think about the contacts keeping on enamel and dentin so that was about the mechanical consideration now we have the aesthetic part so aesthetic it is a priority of the patient because the patient when he wants to replace a pontic or the tooth in the anterior part this main concern is aesthetic so we have three factors and aesthetics that is gingeral interface in size of ginger length and the meso distal width gingeral interface so an aesthetically successful Pontic will replicate the form contour incisal edge gingerland incisal end ratios and color of the adjacent tooth so we need to think about all those minor factors such as the form contour incisal edge ginger and incisal end ratios and the color of the adjacent tooth then only we will get good aesthetics attention to be paid to the contour of label surface always the label is the most visible part so we need to give more importance to the label part so the contour of this label surface as it approaches the tissue that is a Pontic tissue surface we need to be more careful so that it looks like a natural tooth so that is most important part in gingeral interface the Pontic tissue junction so we can always go for modified ridge lap which is recommended for most anterior teeth because it compensates for the lost buckling width in the ridge by overlapping the existing ridge so this compensates that loss of alveolar ridge in the buckling wall dimension after extraction and we can also think about the oveid Pontic which can be used in conjunction with the alveolar preservation or soft tissue augmentation which can also provide very remarkable appearance now regarding the incisal ginger length so obtaining a correctly sized Pontic simply by duplicating of the original tooth is not at all possible so ridge resorption will make the tooth look too long in the cervical region however an abnormal labellingal position is not so obvious hence it is used to improve appearance by recondouring the gingeral half of the label surface so always we need to concentrate on the gingeral half of the label surface and another solution is to shape the Pontic to simulate a normal crown and root with emphasis on the CJ so we create a CJ if the gingeral part is more so we can create a root portion with creation of a CJ or we can also use a pink acrylic to recreate the gingeral part now regarding the meso distal width frequently space available for the Pontic is less than the contra lateral tooth because there is always migration of the adjacent tooth into the edangular space because the patient was coming to the clinic after one year or two years so by the time the tooth just adjacent to the edangular space might have migrated to its space and the space must have been lost so this discrepancy can be corrected by orthodontic repositioning or the space discrepancy can corrected also by altering the shape of the proximal area by duplicating the mesial half of the tooth and adjusting the size of the distal half can see here we are duplicating the mesial half and then adjusting the size of the distal half so that was about the aesthetic considerations so this is the Pontic design with its factors involving in Pontic designs they are biological mechanical and aesthetic and biological we have ridge contact then auto hygiene considerations Pontic material occlusion forces in mechanical we need to think about the material framework tooth preparation and occlusion in aesthetics we have the gingeral interface in ceso gingeral length and meso distal width so that was all about the factors in the last session we finished the Pontic designs the phasing and the true Pontics that is the sanitary Pontic or weight conical ridge lap Pontic or all those things so this is a very commonly asked essay question sometimes this both will be asked together there is a Pontic design and the factors sometimes will be a separate one hope you understood this topic i'll come over to your topic and fix partial denture thank you

Large images are one of the biggest performance problems on the web. The average website has around 800 kilobytes of images. What's worse than one large image? Several large images stuffed into what's called an image slider or an image carousel. A poorly designed image carousel can be very slow, but this doesn't have to happen. Let's see how. Some image carousels load all of the images before displaying any. This means the user can flip through all the images once they're loaded, but until that happens, the user is staring at a big blank space. Other image carousels appear right away, but still load all the images simultaneously. This means images that are on the screen get loaded at the same time as off-screen images, so the ones your user would see right away get delayed by the ones they can't see yet. And often that carousel starts as the images are loading, so the user ends up looking at a parade of partially loaded images. So what's a developer to do? You can solve this by following the principle behind this whole video series. If the user sees it first, you should load it first. So our carousel should load first the images the user will see first. For the remaining images, we have two choices. One, lazy load those remaining images. That is, don't load them until we think the user is about to see them. Or two, preload all the remaining images after the first one loads. With many popular image carousels, making this happen is easy. In the slick carousel, to let slick choose when to load images, change each image's source attribute to data lazy. To lazy load images as the user slides towards them, set lazy load to on demand. To load the first images first, then preload the rest, simply set lazy load to progressive. The owl carousel is similar. Change each image source attribute to data source and add the owl lazy class. To lazy load images, set lazy load to true. To preload a number of images, say four, set lazy load eager to that number. If you're using accelerated mobile pages, or AMP, you can simply use the built-in AMP carousel component. As AMP strives to load resources only when they'll be needed, AMP carousel has lazy loading built in. If you know JavaScript and CSS at all, it's also easy to make your own image carousel and to make it work just the way you like. Thanks for watching. See you next time. And check out our other videos for more tips to make your site even faster.

It is an exciting day for all of us. We have Javier Vergara Petrescu from Ciudad Interjante joining us from Santiago de Chile. And this is the last in this series of global lectures that are intended to probe and discover and celebrate the diversity of urban design practice in the globe and sort of generate a substantive discussion among students, faculty around the world. And we have students and faculty joining us from many institutions this morning to talk about urban design and to understand new methods, practices, places for its further advancement and discovery. So Ciudad Interjante engages tactical interventions across Latin America and Europe. His statement, collaborate, try and share which is a beautifully welcome and opening statement that somehow defies the sort of urban design of late capitalism and the sort of master plan if you will as a frame really conveys the significance of public participation beyond being a sort of a check mark in a box or a green light animating and just a step in a linear design process but he really foregrounds and centers public participation as the project itself. So this is just a thrilling and closing lecture for us because it's really pulling people in communities back to the center and really giving us a kind of a global lens and our lecturers have been describing interventions and strategies and tactics from places as diverse as Mumbai to Amir's Fort to Spain to Barcelona and points around the globe. And so we're truly excited to hear from you Javier and welcome to the lecture series and thank you for joining us. And by way of just a reminder, this lecture is being recorded and so by for academic purposes only and I see tall on the screen and so on behalf of the entire faculty, welcome and you see David Smiley as well who will moderate your question and answers toward the end of the lecture. So welcome all, thank you again, David and Tal for your partnership and to all the Columbia faculty for joining and Javier over to you, bienvenidos. Thank you so much, Kate. Muchas gracias. I hope you can hear me well. Great. So I'm very excited of participating on this online lecture series. Thank you so much for the invitation. I hope we can have an interesting conversation. I will share with you some thoughts today from Santiago de Chile. I'm connected very south at this point. So I will start. If you please let me know someone with the open mic if the screen is shared in the right way. No, can you try to share it again? Yeah, actually I'm gonna do it right now. So I'm gonna start sharing and I'm gonna put in full screen to present you. That's working great, thanks. Super and I'm gonna, okay, so I'm gonna start and again, thank you, Kate. Thank you, Tal, for all the organization. Thank you, David, everybody. So I will be very, very happy. I'm just gonna put like some kind of like timer here so I can have a little idea of the timing. So well, first I would like to introduce myself. So for you guys that haven't heard about us, I'm, first of all, I'm Javier Vergara Petrescu. The first thing I want to tell you is a little bit about the context of what I do, who I am. So you would say like, who is this guy talking today from Chile? Well, maybe some of you have been here in South America for you that you guys haven't been here. I'm from the capital city of Santiago de Chile and I'm an architect. I study architecture at the school of the Catolica University. Maybe some of you guys know the work of some of our, like architects from the school as the Britzker Prize Alejandra Ravena, who was one of the mentors of my formation as an architect. And I was very, very much interested from the very beginning when I started studying architecture on the topic of cities. And that's why when I was actually very early in the career, I decided to have an experience of like exchanging my classes. And I went to Rome for a year of, you know, like experiencing like the city of, you know, other countries. And I was very much like taking on the life and the excitement of this like streetscapes and this like urban life that the city's had. So very early in my career, I decided to go back to Santiago and started with some of my colleagues. Our first startup, I will say, with one of my classmates, David Asael. So we started very early in 2005, 2006, a small startup that was called Art Daily that then start growing and it became like a very big, like online side of architecture that is in multiple languages. But as I said early, I was very much interested in cities. So back in 2008, I decided to go and do some expertise on cities. So I moved to London. So I did my masters in London School of Economics on city design and social sciences, trying to understand why cities were so much challenged by multiple issues that were more regarded into social challenges like climate challenges. And that was a way for me to understand beyond the issue of form. And this was more like an approach to like the social issues that shapes the city and the political decisions that are behind the cities that we have or we shape. So after that experience in London, learning those approaches, I moved to New York, actually where eventually most of you are at this point. I was living in New York after my masters and this was around, maybe you will remember like this, this was like nearly 10 years ago, but it was like the kind of like the aftermath of the financial crisis of 2008. So imagine that I was like a young student that was like starting this like different ideas, like entrepreneurship, like approaches to cities, but also wanting to create something new. And well, it was very difficult actually after my masters and then moving to New York to start something in the middle of this crisis. So I decided to start something from scratch again and I founded Ciudad Emergente in the city of New York, actually when I was like based in the city and I tried to connect like networks that I had in Santiago, in London, in the US. So we started like this idea very back in 2011, like connecting the dots in different cities where they had some like networks. So what was happening back in 2011? Well, maybe many of you eventually were like, well, much younger, right? In my case, like I was very like taken by all the social unrest that was like being seen, you know, in the Northern Africa, also in the New York, like all the movement of Occupy Wall Street was very active at that point. And also in Chile, we were seeing a series of like protests like driven by students that were demanding a change in the education system and in the political system that led actually not for nothing to the time magazine that year to name the protester as the person of the year. So that was very fundamental, I will say in the approach that we took at Ciudad Emergente. So why all these things were happening at that point in 2011 and that I would say kind of very similar to what we are seeing 10 years after. And of course we don't know all the reasons but we can see certain trends that are very much important to be considered, for example, more than half of the people of this planet live in cities but these cities only use like a very little amount of surface, like because we are living in a dense area like only 3% of the surface of the yard is used by cities but these cities are like responsible for multiple issues like for instance like the levels of CO2 emissions or more than 70% of emissions are produced in cities and these places are places of like multiple challenges more than 25% of urban settlements are informal settlements. So this like map that I show you, you might have seen it it's like the genie index that measures like inequality and income and the darker the countries are the more unequal they are. So for example, South America ranks very much similar to like countries in South Africa or in the Northern Africa and they are clear the color is like it's more equal to distribution of wealth and that the inequality in income has been also been very much aggravated by the COVID pandemic during this like last year or so. So why this social unrest is so like eventually like serious it's because it's been also affected by multiple other issues like this graphic that I'm sure that eventually you have seen it. It's like also the illustration of like the increasing temperatures that we have seen in the last like nearly like 200 years and the closest we are like today like the most like complex this issue has been for cities. So having said that, what do we do at Ciudad Emerjente? What is our approach to this context? So first I want to say that Ciudad Emerjente is a city lab that we want to like actually seek how we can build more livable cities through collective actions. That's our main purpose, how we can seek, how we can collectively build more livable cities. And this idea of building cities collectively we have been applying it in different countries in the last 10 years. I mentioned before that we started in New York but most of our work has been in Chile and other countries of South, Central and also North America. We have done other things in other continents but mostly in the Americas. And what we are driven is like how we can build cities collectively by bridging like trying to bridge the time of people and the time of cities. This is like an exercise that I love to do when I do like online or lectures in general. And it's like to ask you a question, maybe you can respond on the chat by the side here about like how much time do you think that a human project takes to happen? For example, if you want to create a human being, how much time does it take? Maybe you can respond here on the chat, we can discuss it later. So again, I'm gonna ask the question, how much time do you think that it take us to create a human project? Some people will say like what is this guy talking about? But I want to compare it to cities like time. So for example, if we think about humans, we know that it takes us like nine months to create a human being, right? It's like nine months that we have like this like baby coming in this belly and then after nine months we have a human living in this planet. But when we talk about cities, how much time do you guys think that it takes to create an urban project? Like if a human takes nine months, how much it takes an urban project like a city project? And of course that's very relative. It depends on the project that we're talking about. It depends if it's, we're talking about a park, if we're talking about like a big infrastructure, but I'm just putting like an example of like an urban park here in the city of Santiago and just the design of the project and the coordination of all the technical aspects of the project, at least take this project in Santiago more than nine years, 10 years to be finally built on its first phase. This is a project, it's a floating park in the south side of the city. So the fact that the time of people and the time of cities are so different was something that triggered our interest into the American to do something that can bring back people to be more protagonist of the city making process. So at least from our perspective, there is a way to start like reaching the gap between the time of people and the time of cities through actions that can be understood as like prototypes that can be seen as like actions too or a way or a path to start talking about people oriented cities, like cities that put on the center the capabilities of people, not just like at the last stage of the urban design process, but at the very beginning of the urban design process. If I would have more time in this lecture today, I would love to talk to you about theories of justice that connects very much to this approach of like putting people first and this is very much based on theories of capabilities approach. When we see, for example, what this Nobel Prize in economics like Amartya Sen talks regarding like how to understand development, he actually states that development is not just the achievement of like wealth in terms of capital wealth or like economic resources, but it's also about the human development that we can achieve. Like the more developed a society or the more developed a city is also connected to how able are people to achieve the life that they have reasons to value. This is something very much connected to theories of justice and the thinking behind like for example, United Nations development human development approach or the agenda 2030. So this is just a context for you to understand that this concept that might be kind of like super theoretical has a very, I will say like practical understanding. If you see these people doing this action taking like some paints and like painting a crosswalk it's a very illustrative example of how people can have the tools to live their life that they have reason to value. In this example, like these people had a reason to paint a crosswalk in the middle of this neighborhood because they felt unsafe, okay? But they also felt that they have the tools and the capabilities to change that reality. And that's very much connected to the idea of human development. Like if you have the capabilities and you have the tools to tackle the barriers or the idea, the barriers that blocks you to live the life that you have reason to value then we're talking about human development, okay? So this idea is very much grounded on the base of the method that I'm gonna talk to you today which is about like prototyping and tactical urbanism, okay? This idea is about like building actions collectively from the very beginning of the urban design process and this methodology is about not only building collectively but also measuring what we do in order to learn about these methods in order to learn about these prototypes so we can influence decision-making processes, okay? In order to share the learning lessons so we can inspire more people to change our reality. So what is tactical urbanism? That is very much connected to this methodology. Tactical urbanism as we understand is a way of prototyping the city through short-term actions that can influence or can it help to advance on long-term changes, okay? This concept I'm gonna be repeating all over the rest of the presentation through some examples. So this idea of tactical urbanism started years like decades ago actually in Europe or the Netherlands we can see some examples of like how these communities and people were doing short-term actions to try to shape their city. This is like Amsterdam around 1970s doing actions of like tactical bike lanes demanding a change collectively through a protest eventually but trying to like create and raise awareness on the need of changing their city. This was in the middle of the oil crisis of the 70s. So when you go today to this like cities and you see the type of infrastructure that they have the type of cityscape that they have, it was not free. I mean, someone needed to wake up and start like demanding a change, okay? So this is something that happened years and decades ago in the Netherlands, but also has happened in US cities too. I mean, if you guys are in New York you know what has, you can see what has been happening. You know, nearly 10 years ago with the transformation of the streets of the city, you know with the administration of Bloomberg mayor and the Janet Sadiq Khan commissioner of transportation, right? Where using these methods of tactical urbanism they start changing the city. And also that methodology has been applied in Chile and Latin American cities and we have been very active on that line. These are examples of urban prototypes trying to transform pavement into plazas. These are like examples that we did like years ago but it's just to show you that this method is not only applied in Europe or Northern America but also like in different cities of South America. This is a pilot that we call the Ocuplazas. It's like an occupation of a pavement to be transformed into a plaza for people. And the interesting thing about these pilots is that decision makers have been supported the continuity of these pilots into more permanent projects and has been inspiring local authorities to create long-term lasting projects. This example that this graphic that I'm showing you in the screen was designed by like Mike Liedon from Street Plans Collaborative. I maybe some of you have seen this but it's a very simple graphic that shows you that the type of tactical urbanism that we can see it's very, I would say like diverse. In the vertical axis of the graphic you can see the type of tacticians that can apply these methods. And on the horizontal axis, you can see like how sanction or unsanction this like methods can be. So there's a wide range of different like actions. So it can be done by artists, by like nonprofits, by city agencies, but it can also be done in a very like unsanctioned way or hybrid or also very legal. So if you wanna know more about these cases there's a lot of information in the internet. But we published together with Street Plans Collaborative like nearly like eight years ago like an online book that it's available in the internet of course with Latin American case studies if you want to take a look at it I will be happy to show you more examples. But in a nutshell the approach that these actions have it's about implementing short-term actions in public spaces that can be light, quick and cheap. And for example, like I don't know tactical bike lanes expansion of like sidewalks creating like pavement to blast as pilots but the important thing about this short-term action is that they need to be measured with tools that can help you to understand the impact of this action. So tools that can help you to measure the situation of a project before an intervention during an intervention and of course after the implementation. This is very important because this at least from our perspective it's the only way that you can leverage the evidence that can show you how good or bad the performance of this action was, okay? So this simple graphic is very relevant for the methodology that we're talking about. And the second thing that I want to do now from the rest of the presentation is to show you some examples of how these methods can be applied to tackle urban challenges, okay? So I will share you some experiences from Ciudad Emerjente on how tactical urbanism can be applied on different issues. For instance, I will start giving you some examples of how through community building we can achieve climate goals. And I will show you a few examples in Latin American context in order to give you an idea of the relevance of the topic I just want to show you this like quote from Gus Spiff from the World Resource Institute and he said this very interesting thing. He says like we scientists don't know how to do that and I'm gonna read this, but he said like I used to think that the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse or climate change. I thought that with 30 years of good science we could address those problems, but I was wrong. The top environmental problem are selfishness, greed and apathy. And to deal with those, we need like sort of a spiritual or cultural transformation. And scientists like environmental scientists don't know how to do that. Like how we can like tackle those like issues of lack of trust, lack of like collaboration in a context, at least in Latin America where very little people trust each other. So this is very relevant. I don't know in the case of the US. Well, maybe actually we can see here in the graphic but this is the level of like interpersonal trust that countries have. Sorry that the slide is in Spanish but it's a very simple graphic to read. This is like, for example, the levels of interpersonal trust in Chile where only 12% of people trust someone that is not from their close circle of friends or family. In Brazil it's even lower but it's just for you to have an idea that the levels of trust in this society is that we are based, are very little. So how do we tackle like the problems of climate change or sustainable cities if we don't interact with other people? So I'm gonna give you an example of a case of a city called Antofagasta. This is in the north of Chile. It's a city that is like very close to Bolivia and Peru, north of Chile. And one of the main problems that we were faced when we went to the city of Antofagasta was the problem of landfill, like illegal landfills and dumpsters all around the outskirts of the city and also in the city center. This is a big landfill, just for you to know. Antofagasta is, maybe you will not believe this but it's the wealthiest city of Chile with a GDP similar to London or Melbourne like around like $40,000 per capita, the GDP per capita. So how come like a city that is so wealthy from a, let's say economic point of view can look like this, right? So this is just for you to start like, or thinking about how we measure development again, right? Are we measuring with the right indicators or not? So these are images of the city of Antofagasta and the landscapes of the city and the tactical method that we applied to try to like face this problem of this environmental problem was through selecting multiple sites of the city where we can pilot short-term actions that can help us to shape a long-term positive change in the city. So the first thing that we start doing was like with a very simple, very light, very quick and cheap method, we start bringing people to the streets to share a meal, okay? Just as simple as that, as a potluck, okay? Like let's bring people together. We don't need much resources. We only need like a table, some chairs and let's start like discussing with the community how we can together try to solve this problem or what are the real problems of the community? So through something very simple as like eating and sharing a meal with your neighbors, I'm gonna just read this like quote, I'm gonna translate it in Spanish, but this is a person who participated on this like urban potlucks that we were doing in the city and she was saying like this encounter of the urban potluck has made me feel something that this country that has been shaped it through individualism and competitiveness like challenging each other has made us forget which is the fact that we live in a neighborhood and we are able to say hello to each other. This quote, which is like super simple but it gives you an idea of how important the issue of getting to know each other is so relevant in this action. So after this first ideas of gathering people through this potlucks, we start measuring that people trust each other more. Actually more than 70% of people trusted more than neighbors after sharing a simple meal. So that was very key to go a step further. Once we know each other, it's much like likely that you will engage on a process of environmental alleviation or an environmental strategy. This is a group of neighbors with students from the city of Antofalasta that were participating on a cleaning of a site that was a big landfill. So together with the community, together with the municipality, together with companies of the city of Antofalasta, we started cleaning and making people feel relevant actors and protagonists of the process. Not just like passive receivers of a benefit but instead of that active agents of change, okay? So these are like just for you to have an idea of some photographs of like the neighbors that were participating on the process of recovery and after this like first cleaning actions, there were celebrations about like the achievement of the cleaning site, but that was not the end of the story. Like after you had like the site clean, there was something to do about it because if you don't activate those spaces, they quickly become again landfills and illegal dumpsters. So there was a process of activating the area through tactical urbanism, giving different uses to this former landfill. So because these methods are so like, like we can chip to implement, you can try different things. So the interesting thing about this Oculplasa, again, it's an occupation of abandoned area into like an active plaza. We tried multiple uses, for example, games for kids like food markets. We tried like different activities for leisure, for the community. All of these were like prototypes that were measured in order to know how much the community value these uses. So we didn't know what this landfill would become. We were just trying different options, okay? So when you measure this, then you start like having a better idea, a better sense of what could be the next step in investment. So after we pilot all these like multiple uses on the landfill, we were able to invest much more resources in a more accurate use of the public space. And this became like, this became sorry, a plaza, an active plaza that collect all the data that was leveraged through the pilot, the tactical urbanism project. So that's at least how we understand how a short-term action can shape a long-term change, in this case, in the cityscape of the neighborhood, okay? It's just like one simple example, but how do we sustain these ideas, not only through urban design but through like, for example, decision-making, okay? I'm gonna show you another example. This in a city, it's a different city, it's called Valparaiso. It's a city that has a very like attractive postcard of like in 1800 South American city that was shaped through like, you know, the development of like the port of the city of Valparaiso. But Valparaiso has also a similar postcard of Antohogasta in terms of pollution, in terms of like illegal landfills and like illegal dumpsters. So this example was actually shaped in 2013 and what we did was like, try to tackle the problem of like trash and dumpsters through a tactical campaign on recycling in a city that didn't have any institutional strategy for waste management. So the method was very actually simple. We started like prototyping some like simple, like, you know, points for recycling, even though in the city there were no, as I said, institutional framework for doing this. But the interesting thing is that we tried out a campaign that for 30 days, allow us to collect more than 12,000 plastic bottles. So this was interesting because it was not that the city couldn't do it because there were a lot of interest in people to recycle, even though there were no this method. So with this first amount of like bottles that we collect, we designed an urban intervention that was aimed to raise awareness in the community about the waste that was produced in the city. So, oh, I don't know what happened with this photo. So this was like a project called the Ocuplasa, like the recycling of Ocuplasa. This was actually a prey that was, as I said, with the aim of raising awareness in the community. This photograph actually, we didn't take it. It was something that someone that sent us a photo like a month after of the project and we found it super cool. We said, oh, cool. We will post it on our website. A few months after that, the Museum of Modern Art, the MoMA, contacted us and told us, hey, to emergent, we will like to publish you on this exhibition that we'll have in the museum. So it was kind of like from a very superficial point of view that sometimes architect we have. It was kind of like exciting for us, like, oh, we're gonna be published at the MoMA, but moreover, the important thing of this project was not that, was that the pilot of this plaza allowed us to connect the dots between like emerging recyclers in the city with community leaders. So this guy that is in the photograph is called Don Pedro. So this guy, Don Pedro was a community-based recycler and he got to know Benjamin, who is this guy who was a community leader that helped us to put this like recycling points in his neighborhood. So these people got to know each other through the tactical project. They didn't know each other and after the intervention, even though intervention was like dismantle, these guys started to have a relationship and they kept on recycling after the project. So this is more like an intangible effect of a project. It's not related to like a physical change as in the example of Antofagasta where the short-term change is like an actual urban design change on the neighborhood, but this is another kind of impact. It's more intangible. It's like community bonds, community connections and on top of that, what is interesting of this case is that during the activity that we were having, we invited people to sign up a petition to legislate on the use of plastic on this city. This break was done in 2013. So we collect a lot of signatures, a lot of like support from people that wanted to reduce the use of plastic in Chile. So with all this like support from communities and people who were participating on the pilot, we sent all that evidence to the parliament so there were evidences for the legislation of the Recycling Law of Chile that was passed in 2016, three years after the project, okay? So I will not say, I would like to you if I will tell you that the Recycling Law in Chile was approved because of our project support. No, not at all. But it was just like one effort on top of many other efforts that helped to create a political change like a legislation change in the country that it's called the, today it's called like the law that extend the responsibility to the producer of this like waste. So again, this is actually another way of understanding tactical urbanism, short-term actions that can help to change long-term changes in this case, like through policy-making, okay? So these two examples are using the same idea. Urban prototyping, it's like understand as like short-term actions that can help us to advance some long-term changes and just to like go on with examples and then this is gonna be like part of the last part of the presentation, it's about sharing some experiences on how tactical urbanism can be applied to tackle sustainable mobility challenges. This is again, the city of Santiago where I'm calling you, where I'm actually presenting now. And just for you to have an idea, Santiago is a very car-oriented city, like unfortunately like most of the priorities on mobility has been like put on making very easy people to drive by cars. And sadly, the city has been declared as saturated zone because of the high levels of particulated material, the number like the 2.5, which is the most dangerous one. So this project that I'm gonna show you, it's about climate change, but through an approach of changing habits of people, okay? It's like how we can tackle climate change by creating changes of habits in people and what kind of changes it's about like the mobility habits that we have. Sadly, like of course, there's a big inequality in the use of streetscapes. Even in the pandemic times, like we have seen how much space sometimes cars use and like how little space there is for people to use the city scape, the streetscape. So this example of urban prototyping was done in a very specific neighborhood in the city of Santiago. And what we did was trying to change the streetscape of a very, I would say a very like a common street in the city. The photograph that you're seeing on your screen is an avenue that it could be any other avenue of the city of Santiago. See for example, seven lanes and the seven lanes are for cars, okay? So what we did is was try to create a shared street project through the implementation of a method that was creating a city, sorry, a street that was invited, inviting everyone to use it, not only cars but also bikers, pedestrians, like any other like transportation mode, okay? So we deleted all the boundaries between like cars and bicycles. So we tried to calm the traffic through this shared street pilot that was applied for a few days actually. And the interesting thing about this method is that of course it was not an anti-car approach. It was more like a pro people approach, okay? So people could walk, there were actually like different uses and also different tools to measure what was the impact of sharing the street. So these graphs that I'm showing you are sensors that can measure the quality of air in the pilot area. And during the pilot project, we saw a reduction on nine times on CO2 emissions on that specific point, nine times reductions of CO2 emissions. Of course, like it was because there were less cars but sometimes when you have the data, it's much more clear for everybody what is the next step to do. So the municipality of Santiago with this information with the reduction of CO2 emissions and the number of cyclists that were circulating on the street, they decided to create a one kilometer bike lane connector on this neighborhood. Someone would say, well, one kilometer is not very much. Yeah, it's true. But when you use that kilometer to connect other existing bike lanes, that's very relevant because we saw that the project before the project, there were around 800 cyclists riding their bicycles in the area before the project, okay? With the construction of this one kilometer of bike lane connectors, the demand of cyclists increased in more than 500%. Today, actually there are more than 4,500 cyclists riding their bicycles in the same area because there is an infrastructure that invites them to use this area. So again, a short term action that with the data that is collected help you to pave or to advance on a long-term change. In this case, a change of habit in how we move in the city. And just to finish the examples on this case, I will show you this case in the city of Panama. This is Panama City and it's a project that we did with the IEDB with the Danish, well, international firm, GEL and the University of Panama and a collective art group called Via Plural in the city center of the Panama City. And it was about trying to balance again the space for cars and the space for people in a city that had a lot of opportunities to create more human center cities. So the pilot project in Panama City was very much similar to the one that I showed you in Santiago. We used different collaborators from the local neighborhood that we were working at with the municipality, with the university. And this was the city, the area in Panama City center before the project. This is after or during the project. As you can see, like again, it's not like anti-cars approach but it's more like pro people. So we expand the space for people to invite everybody to use the streetscape. Like kids invited to use the city like elder people invited to use the city. And again, we measure the impact of this activity is super relevant to apply methods to collect opinions, to collect quantitative and qualitative data. For example, we knew that more than 70% of the people considered that the pilot project was good for the city and more than 45% considered that the tactical action brought more security to the area because they were, as you have heard, like the concept of eyes on the street, you know? Like this Jane Jacobs idea of like the more people are on the streets, the safer it feels. So it was also a measure on that point. And we know at this point that the municipality of Panama has kept the transformation of the city because they saw the benefit of it. So that's again, the same idea, short-term actions for long-term changes. Just to sum up and rub up some final thoughts on urban prototyping and tactical urbanism. I would like to just like underscore some ideas. I would love to show you more examples and trigger more conversation, but the good news is that there's a lot of information online. Just recently, a few weeks ago, the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs included Ciudad Emergenti among best practices on how to localize SDGs. So if you go to this link that I'm sharing you on screen, you can find a lot of these examples on the website of the United Nations, but also on our website, there's a lot of more info. And just on a concept note, this idea of urban prototyping and tactical urbanism, it's a way to understand cities as an incremental process. So you can start thinking that you can trigger a temporary intervention through tactical urbanism, building it collectively, collecting the data and learning from the pilots in order to pass to a second state that can be a broader investment with less uncertainty for a permanent or semi-permanent design and the information or the impact that you can achieve through that second stage can help you to go towards another stage of ambitious which could be like influencing urban policy, like scaling up and adapting your learning lessons through, as I said, like an incremental process. So this is the first insight that I would like to share you. These methods can be incremental gains, okay? On another note, well, these images are more or less the same. And on another note, it's important to underscore what is tactical urbanism about and what is not, okay? So what it is, I already repeated a lot, it's this like short-term actions that can help you to shape a long-term process. It also is very important to say that this is complementary to other forms of city making. It's not replacing and it's not instead of urban planning or urban design. It's part of a complementary toolkit that you guys can think about, okay? So it's not replacing, it's complementing these other approaches, okay? Urban planning, the city planning and territory planning are super relevant and they're very powerful when you complement it with this method. And also tactical urbanism is a very interesting way to put people first because you can invite them to do very simple and fun things. Like, you know, getting together on a public space to have a meal, it's cool. It's actually, it's very like yummy. And I think it's a very creative way of, you know, start thinking about cities and urban planning in a more engaging way. So that is very important. What is not tactical urbanism? What is not, it's not a magic wand to solve all problems in the city. Sometimes like mayors or decision makers see this as a very attractive tool but it's not gonna solve all the problems of a neighborhood or a city. They are not just temporary interventions. Their impacts need to be measured in order to generate change. And there's not a right way to do tactical urbanism. As I show you in the graph of street plans collaborative, there are multiple ways to do this method, okay? You have to find what works for you in your context. So some tips for you guys, if you are interested in doing this kind of actions, it's very important to understand what you're trying to impact and measure it. So what is the issue? How, what is the questions that you want to respond? How can you measure it? Okay, that's very important. Also measure your success on what you learn, not what you achieve. It's very important to see this as a learning process. You have to look for partners who can share your vision. I mentioned some projects and most of them were never done only by student emergenti. We collaborate with multiple stakeholders. So these actions are very powerful to do them with like different partners. You have also to communicate what you're going to do and what you are not going to do because there's a lot of expectations sometimes with this method. So it's very relevant to be clear on that. Also, it's very key to develop a narrative, like mix your data with a story or the opinions that you gather, like create a story behind this processes, okay? And make it attractive, but don't make it about how it looks. It's important to use the power of data combined with the power of this physical changes, okay? And also think ahead how long is intervention going to last? It's gonna be a few days, it's gonna be a few months, a few years and who is responsible afterwards, okay? Just to like a final conclusion, at least this is something that we shared a lot in student emergenti team members is that what history has demonstrated us is that you need a small group of people who can do things differently. Like let's think about like urban innovators or sometimes we are like called as crazy people, but this like group of people that can demonstrate that things can done differently and when their ideas become the mainstream, this is like when changes start to happen really fast. So wherever you are like eventually working next year or engage on even it is academia or public sector or private sector or a startup, like let's give us the permission to do changes. Like that's like a very relevant thing to do. So that's what I had to share with you today. I'm gonna start sharing. I hope you heard what I said because sometimes the internet is not like the best. So I'm just gonna handle now to David. I think David's gonna do some questions. Okay, questions and answers. Hello and thank you so much. That was amazing. And really I deeply appreciate your kind of enthusiasm and your kind of groundedness that is rare among in our field. I'll leave it there. And I think that the students, we have quite a few questions coming in which is a great indicator of kind of trying to figure it out along with you. So I'm gonna start off by coming clean which is I do a lot of teaching where we discuss kind of short-term projects, public space projects. And we have a lot of last year when we taught the class, we had a lot of debate about tactical urbanism. And you raise most of the issues. And I think essentially I come to it from an overarching kind of critique of society. So I admit I lean in the direction of looking for structural change even as I know that small scale and incremental changes need to be are essential to any real change. So I really appreciate that you've gone along the way to convince me that stuff that this is truly an important way to do work in cities and to have an attitude about cities that would welcome this kind of work. So I just, that's my little thank you very much in my admission that, you know as much as I read the tactical urbanism books I'm always a little like, but what about structure? What about society? So as I say, you've kind of pulled me back the other way. And I really appreciate one thing you said and that comes, that joins with some of the questions coming up. And you just concluded a little bit with who is responsible afterwards? And I think that's a key question, you know, maintenance and stakeholders that stick around. Because if, you know, you walk away from one street action and the next year it's kind of bulldozed or left to rot, then that raises a lot of troubles and questions. So I really appreciate you're asking the question of who is responsible afterwards because it makes us realize that you don't just walk away from a project. You've got to make sure that there's a constituency and a community that sees the long-term need which is the kind of flip side. You know, you say short-term action for long-term change. And I think post-project commitments are vital. So several students have asked about that and they once asked, how much of the long-term change do you actually get to be involved with? And another student wants to know about, oh, I'm trying to find it again. And how, and to what degree do you have long-term changes in mind as you're working? So both of those students are kind of wondering about this long-term question. You know, I'll leave it there. Yes. Okay. Well, thank you, David, for your comments. And I think that you're not the only who has feel skeptical about this method because there are a lot of noise behind these actions that are very visible sometimes and they are regarded as more like, I don't know, like hot air. And then what happened afterwards? Like what happened with the real changes? Like, so I think there's a lot of like, in any discipline, like you can, for example, in architecture, you can have good architecture and bad architecture. Or you can have like good urban design or bad urban design, eventually how you say it. So you can have like good tactical urbanism or bad tactical urbanism. So I guess that the ones that, at least from our perspective are the ones that can be more impactful are the ones that can actually like, one, like have this like ideas of, for example, how do you measure and what do you want to impact and what happened after this kind of interventions, right? So in order to respond like the questions, like how much of the long-term change are you involved? So, well, I will have to say that it depends on every project. Like there's something that for us is super important and I mentioned it at the very beginning of the presentation that was about the idea of like human development. When we understand these actions as a way of creating capabilities, then there is a big opportunity to think that the continuation of these processes is not just on one organization or one municipality, but it's about like different actors and stakeholders that have capabilities to continue the process. So for example, in our experiences, it's very important to try to install a simple capability on people so they can feel more responsible either on the maintenance of the project or the replication of the tactic or the, I don't know, the replicating it on other places. So thinking this method as a way to like install a capacity and a way of people to feel more protagonist of a process is very relevant for us, okay? For example, the idea of the botlack, the simple idea that I show you as a tactical idea of like building like bouncing people is such a simple action, but when you frame it as a toolkit where people can actually replicate it over time, this help us people to do it without us. So we are not there on the action afterwards. They are just doing it by theirself. They are self-organized. So in order to create long-term like impact, it's very important to create the capability on people so they can be self, as I said, like self-organized activities or maybe like be more interested on maintaining the place or keeping track with authorities. So again, like how much of the long-term changes are we involved? We are very like cautious on trying to create this capabilities for example on the municipality. So the municipality or the local stakeholders in the public sector can learn how to do this on their own and they don't need us eventually on the second stages, okay? Of course, not all of our projects have been successful. Some of them are like, they haven't worked or we have like seen a lot of challenges to keep on like the long-term impact. Sometimes we've seen that there's no willingness to do like a second phase and some stakeholders like even like mayors or like municipalities, they just want to like see like quick results but then it's very relevant for us to like try to partner with people that first are willing to do changes and I'm trying to like, I don't know say persuade but give a lot of like evidence on the benefits of this action so people can really believe that it's like for the benefit of everybody. So yeah, so yeah, I don't know if I respond like the two questions but maybe we can have a conversation about it. I think you really are inspiring in the sense that you recognize the variety of actors and your commitment to kind of trust and collaboration is infectious and I think as you stated just a second ago that the municipalities are key actors and they're very, they have different goals and different masters and different protocols and I'm sure that in every city in every country where this kind of work is tried, it's always different, it's always a negotiation. I mean, it's some degree there's gotta be some connection to planning authorities, municipal authorities, there's no escaping that if it's to extend into a longer term proposition I think that's really good to see. A couple of questions have to deal with stakeholders and that's an extremely vague term in many ways because it could be a person having tea on the street versus the guy who owns the property on the street to the state regulation, et cetera. So stakeholders is a tough term but I think we tend to think of it in some ways as a kind of community-based level which I think is where it's best to think of it but some want to know about how do you deal with changing stakeholders? How do you deal with different kinds of stakeholder participation? Youth, older people, different kinds of communities or even multiple stakeholders who may not agree. I think that kind of ultimately it's a kind of question about the kind of conflict and hurdles to stakeholder activities that you somehow have to manage. How does that work? Yeah, that's a very interesting one because for example, like the changing stakeholders that happens a lot in our public counterparts. So when you do that, for example, the project and you are trying to shape changes in the city where local or like elected authorities have to change after four years or after like an election period it's very like challenging to go through these methods. For example, in our experience it has been like a big challenge when we're doing a project in the middle of an election process, right? So for example, we start with one local authority, the public stakeholder and then we ended up with another one and that's like a big challenge. The one, the example that I show you this shared street project in Santiago was just that case. So the pilot was done with one administration and the permanent project was done with another one and they were from different political parties. So how did we like bridge that? And that's the key thing of data because it was very key for not only us but also like the public workers that were also collaborating with us that were not political stakeholders but more like the second floor kind of like people. They used all the data that we collected to, I don't know if convinced but open the discussion with the new mayor about what had happened. If we wouldn't have had the data it would have been really difficult to have an argument with the new mayor about what was like the benefit of this. So we learned that in a case where changing stakeholders was the case and that's not only in the case of Santiago it's like in any city that we have that kind of problem. The data component and the creation of a storyline that can help the new authority to see the benefit of this to see what happened with their quality circumstances what happened with the safety of the bikers that was relevant for us to like go in the next step the permanent investment. So that was for us a very big learning lesson. In another cases, we have had the problem that for example, I don't know people don't want to participate on this. I'm not telling you like that this is like the ultimate method of doing participatory process at all because in our experience when we do this kind of projects let's say if a neighborhood has like 100% of like people like neighbors in at the very beginning only 20% of the neighbors of a neighborhood engage on this idea. Only it's a limited number of people that really like want to go to the preparing meetings the only 20% of them want to listen what we are trying to like bring to the neighborhood as a new idea. And when the things are happening when you have like for example, the street transform when you have the pot like happening there then we bring the attention of more people than in our experience like we can achieve like maybe 50 or 60 or almost 70% of like people of a neighborhood participating during the action. So we start with very little that say 20% we can achieve around 70% more during the action and there's a 10% of people that will never join this they will actually criticize it they will be like the haters that we say sometimes that I know this was a terrible idea. So but at least if we add up like the 20 from the very beginning and the 70 during the action we can start talking about like a 90% of people trying to engage on something different and that's very important to like I think that this is a method that if it's done well can bring them like a good number of people back into the idea of like being part of the city planning process. But as I said, David, it's not like a magic wand like we know that we cannot engage everybody but it's a gradual like a step by step process. It seems also related to that that in terms of getting people or engaging people for participation it has to do with trust as you've said several times and building enthusiasm and students are very curious. I think they're trying to do this in their own work because not all people have the time or the resources to actually participate. And so lowering the bar to participation is something that we talk about a lot and it seems like the kind of potluck although when you first said it I thought you said potlatch the anthropological term for a gift giving ceremony but it's potluck and it's kind of similar and it's funny how they resonate but I think that idea of small events to actually that are about trust more than anything about specific project guidelines or to-dos. So I think that's very helpful. One person asks, have you ever encountered in this kind of tactical mode the sense that perhaps government or institutional planners worry that you're taking their place that it undermines the role of government. I'm just passing that along. I think it's a really fascinating question because you are in some ways, I'll be generous and say you are complimenting government but do you come across resistance because of officials et cetera feeling threatened? Yeah, it has been the case many times. I can give you some examples and then maybe a little insight about it but in the Antofagasta project that I showed you guys of this landfills it happened that the mayor of the city they really saw the work that we were doing as a competitor. They were like, no, this is our role. What are you guys doing here? I am responsible to connect with these communities. We have to show the results. It's not like an NGO working with them. So it was a very challenging thing I have to say. I remember that this mayor, when we did the potluck that I showed you in the photographs they arrived with hundreds of teddy bears that they want to give to the kids of the neighborhood because they wanted to be seen as the implementers or whatever. We had a fight with the mayor on the same photograph that I showed you trying to make the mayor see that it was not about seeing people as a passive receiver of benefits but more as people as able to organize, self-organize things and sometimes authorities at least in South America I don't know if it's in the case in other cities but there's a lot of paternalism kind of like a sense of like people are like kids so we have to treat them like that so there's like a big challenge on changing habits on like decision makers and trying to like create, as I said before the idea of human development the idea of like trying to like install capabilities on people so they can feel more agents of change and not just like observers of the process so we had a conversation with the mayor we took the teddy bears out of the conversation she had like an activity like two weeks after we had a conversation with the people and then she gave this teddy bears in another context not on the potluck that was like totally different it was a totally different spirit so in that sense the lesson in that prayer was like trying to be bold on what you believe and be also ready to face the authorities with your arguments and say well it's the mayor so we cannot say anything no you have to actually like put arguments in a very respectful way trying to convince with arguments and like then also be you know open to have like a negative reaction in the case of Antofagasta we had a good reaction and that mayor didn't do that show but in other cases for example I didn't show you some examples that we did in Guatemala the authorities were investigated by the United Nations because of corruption so the prayer that we were doing was sponsored by the United Nations and the authorities thought that we were like doing some kind of like inquiry or research for corruption cases so they mixed things and they didn't allow us to do anything so in that case we couldn't actually do the project we didn't have any permits so we have to change the strategy we ended up doing something totally different from what it was originally planned so in that case the learning lesson was like okay if you cannot have your way we'll try to have a plan B or a plan C and try to do other things because sometimes authorities in context where the state is that sometimes happens like in some countries that we have work at then you have to have other methods there's a tip that I will suggest if anyone is wanting to work on challenging context there's like a permit that we try to collect that it's not emitted by the authority but it's emitted by hundreds of neighbors and we call it like a social permit but it's not valid from a legal point of view but it's like very powerful in terms of like the I would say the support of the community if you have like 200 signatures of the community wanting to do something it's like a very powerful method to talk with the mayor even though they don't want eventually to allow you to do things so again you have to be bold you have to be open to frustration you have to be open to these kind of things has a lot of like a lot of things that don't work but it's also very I don't know exciting you feel alive when you do this kind of phrase because you are constantly challenged to create solutions so I can tell you more I can tell you more but I want to ask more questions I think it sounds like you have lots of war stories I'm going to interpret a couple of questions and ask essentially that do you have any larger scale urban projects what we might call getting a long-term project built yes yes larger scale in terms of planning and also in terms of infrastructure so I show you more the piloting side of our work but we have an area of Ciudad emergente that works on long-term planning strategies for example in Central America we were invited by the Spanish cooperation agency to create a sustainable mobility plan for 2030 for a city that it's called we're currently working there but in order to create the plan we use these methods these tactical methods to collect like the first data and to socialize and to like how do you say, outreach the community about this long-term planning process because sometimes like plans are very difficult for people to be like you know excited about or understand them so we use the tactical methods to outreach with the people and try to like let them see the benefits as a sustainable mobility I wish I would have selected that example but it's on our website I can maybe you know maybe later show you guys like the links but we do long-term planning strategies and we combine them with these methods we also work a lot in like permanent infrastructure processes but we use again the same very first steps doing this like like quick and cheap methods to create a sustainable mobility plan for a city that it's very difficult for people to communicate with the community if we want to co-create an infrastructure it's very powerful when you start the co-creation with simple actions that can like you know identify which in the community is more against the project who is like more like in favor of a project so these are like projects that will work at all by itself no it's like the more tools we have I think the better the practice that we can put in practice Another question which you mentioned somewhat along the way and some students are asking about financial questions municipal funding state funding or you know how slippery is the funding and does that cause at especially at the the tactical level Sorry David said about financing how we finance ourselves and how the pandemic has affected I'm thinking more about how to build something even if it's temporary there's still a funding source and how stable are your funding sources and I'm guessing the pandemic has also changed that landscape but I think students we push them to be somewhat responsible we're acknowledging the role of hard and soft costs so I'm just curious if that has been something you deal with So in general terms the way we finance this kind of methods are very different depending on the context and the years for example at the very beginning it was 100% private funding because why the public would put money on something they didn't understand so it was a lot of capital from entrepreneurial agencies so we started with more private funding and then during the years we started increasing like financing this initiative through public sector actually in 2014 it was the first time that the Chilean State Commission a tactical urbanism project and that was very exciting for us because we were for maybe five years trying to coin the concept and trying to validate the idea until the state start like it's been like this bit for tactical projects so I would say that it has been very fluctuating we have been mixing private funding public funding and in the last years we have seen that it's very useful to combine the sources of funding for the very first stages we try to operate with private funding which is easier and faster to be allocated and with those first insight it's much easier than the public sector can invest long term funding with less uncertainty so it's a kind of a complement like the way of understanding cities actually we have been doing some donation campaigns also for doing tactical projects and we invite people so they can also like donate for this kind of actions so it's been like a very hybrid method and during the pandemic of course it has been very affected because like first of all because of the pandemic the work that we do was super challenge we couldn't go out to public space but we praise so even though that today 70% of our resources are coming from private sources and the rest is from international cooperation and public sector that's a concern of ours or at least mine I should say you know the kind of public-private connections and relationships are again I tend to be skeptical only because private sector has certain goals and which Bloomberg and his administration here in New York cultivated very well but did not really follow through and so the public sector is less able to participate as you say but also I worry that people tend to view the public sector as ineffective or unhelpful but I think that's a much larger problem than just even tactical urbanism I mean in many places public sectors have been kind of delegitimized in terrifying ways and the private sector given this kind of you know a kind of sense that the private sector can do things better and I think that's a huge political question that we all need to face but I think in your case the kind of navigation is the key point the kind of the agility to maneuver and find that but and it leads me a little bit and I know this may seem odd but you mentioned a lot of the use of sensors and you talk a lot about measurement and it seems fairly sensible but I'm just going to take the flip side which is the city that Google wanted to build in Toronto I think it was called Keyside which was a completely censored not censorship but an environment full of sensors and well I trust you personally I wonder you know what that kind of use of sensors and use of data gathering techniques how it affects our kind of intervention into the private sphere does that cause I mean I think I'm guessing that a kind of low level use of sensors and spotlights or cameras etc has a clear function but when you ramp it up to the level of what Google worked on in Keyside and you know there's a lot of debates about that I'll just take the kind of general point is how do you think that the question of sensors but also of measurement how does that play out forward in kind of political and social terms I don't even know myself really but many alarms go off when I hear when I think about massive measurement of public life that's a big one big question well I really don't know on the details the the Google one but eventually the scale that we're talking about is very different from the piloting that I show you because the kind of examples that I show you and the work that we do it's not at the scale of the state I mean we're not like a city we're not like a regional government we're like a sort of a lab okay so eventually it will be like much bigger and you know it will be a totally different conversation but the sensor that we applied are always using data that it's not personal it's like environmental information that it collects like the I don't know if you guys have heard about like smart citizen kids which is some kind of you know Arduino sensors that are very easy to use but they are not about personal data but more about environmental conditions so we actually provide people to use those sensors so they can actually it's called like citizen science so you give like people different kind of like gadgets that they can operate easily they are fun to work with but also sometimes because of the level of trust that I told you they're challenging because we have had the case that we for example in order to install those sensors we have to ask a permit for someone to you know put the sensor on his house on her house and we have had like conversation with people like what are you asking me like why do you want to put a sensor in my house and you're asking me my Wi-Fi password to make this work so sometimes like these like smart cities like tools are not taking into account a topic about like trust again like why someone would you put a sensor on their house if you're asking like this kind of like basic stuff so we have learned that it's very important at least for censoring the the intermediator like the person that it's the human that can explain to someone why are we doing this that eventually I don't know again what how the Vancouver project with Google worked but in the case of we combine like social workers with architects and engineers so it's very important to you know approach people and explain them what are we doing why are we doing it what will be the benefit so then it's not a data that was collected through any position but it was something that was talk with someone so just just to tell you about that case of course again the scale that we work it's not the same as a city we're not censoring the whole city we're censoring this pilot okay so the other thing that I have to say that the data that we collect is not just through sensor but it's a lot of like analog information a lot of like like you know face-to-face data so we for example we start gadgets that are like for example we call them trees of ideas that are like simple like structures that we hang out in public spaces and people felt invited feel invited to interact with the with the sensor like it which is actually a person collecting data so the face-to-face thing we realize that it was very very much important to understand I mean to make people understand what the data collection is for to like engage in a conversation and try to like have opinions and and not just think this method as a way of like doing a short-term action for a long-term change but also an excuse to talk with someone and through conversation you can actually understand the value of people or what is the value that people puts on a project so there's a lot of qualitative information that we collect through face-to-face things so the more advanced technology has been like you know seen in the last years with all this like advance on like data or like the fact of privacy I think it's much more relevant to also combine the analog way of collecting data the the human side of the information we as 10 years ago we're seeing how powerful the idea of like using Twitter or using like smartphones was like the you know the cookie cutter approach for collecting data but the more advanced it is the more important we think it's like to combine it with like the old-fashioned way of doing things so yeah Thank you so much just kind of wrap up here but I really appreciate the idea of trust playing out in a technologized you know electronic world that humans are data surveyors of their own sort or increasingly a kind of cyborg which you know using our eyes and our tools kind of meshed anyway that's a great long-term question and I think that's role we have time for I really appreciate your work and I think you've shared with some great stuff and I think the students know to be able to go to your website and look up some work I also shared the link for the tactical urbanism book with the students and I think you've given us some real food for thought especially this question of scale I reminded that there's smart city and then there's smart citizen and that may be a superficial binary but it's a useful one in so far as cities are abstractions there's a little bit more kind of tangible reality there that may be my own fantasy but yes I think that's a key thing for the tactical is that kind of citizen local scale so anyway it's been great thank you so much thank you Javier really enjoyed your talk and this vibrant Q&A session it's been a great summer I feel like I've learned so much so inspired by what we've heard thanks again everybody I just want to add one thing by the way some students and some of the facilitators and the discussion groups were plotting maybe to have another session maybe next week to join join some groups together and share some findings and some questions I think I forgot to tell you that anyway thank you again thank you so much Javier thank you David, Kate, Tal and everybody thank you and I see a friend there Adriana Chavez yes she says hi ok guys, thank you so much bye bye

M Waseem Akhtar (Griffith College) National Forum Learning Analytics Symposium
|
National Forum Symposium – Bringing People Together; Exploring Learning Analytics in Irish HE
On Thursday 8th December, the National Forum hosted our first national symposium on Learning Analytics, entitled Bringing People Together; Exploring LA in Irish HE. The national interest in this new and exciting area was evidenced by the terrific turnout we had from across the sector. There were seventy-four attendees, representing nineteen Universities, Institutes of Technology and Colleges of Education across the country, as well as a number of organisations linked to the area.
The symposium was designed as an event where colleagues with an interest in Learning Analytics could come together as a community, introduce each other to their relevant work and collaborate to identify opportunities, challenges and solutions that could benefit us all. To this end, the main content of the day was composed of 3-4 minute micro-presentations which each attendee was invited to prepare in advance. These presentations outlined each person’s work in the area, the challenges and opportunities they’ve identified and the next steps they would either like to take or are planning to take.

Hello everybody, my name is Vasim Akhtar and I am Head of Computing Faculty in Griffith College and I am Program Director for Masters in Big Data Management and Analytics. I supervise a number of data analytics projects and final year dissertation and I always use the domain, the data from higher education sector. I am almost about to finish my MBA with UCL at any moment. I am just checking emails, you know, any moment I will get the results. So this is kind of my PhDs in Computing Science but that MBA is in Higher Education Management. Now as part of that MBA I reviewed almost all GISC supported business intelligence and analytics projects in various UK universities. I reviewed a large number of dashboards as part of that work in many US universities also Purdue University Signal Project. I think everyone has looked at that. I have then completed a 360 review of GISC supported BI project in University of East London and the impact of the dashboards and that project on the local and wider community. I have completed a full consultancy project for a Russell Group University in the UK that how they should implement evidence based management. Basically they already have a GISC supported project there, they have some dashboards and now they want to take it to the next level. So that was my consultancy project. I keep engaging with IT services in Griffith College as we are developing and experimenting with various dashboards. My personal interest now is the moment I get that email from UCL that it's over. After that it's in institutional research. It's basically institutional effectiveness and mainly integrated institutional effectiveness that how we bring those models there are various areas and I'll come back and talk to you about those things. Again modeling individuals career development and progression and program level, department level and faculty level and then institutional level integrated effectiveness. Now opportunities exist on all levels. You are talking about monitoring individual students' performance, you are talking about the performance of a program, you are talking about performance of a faculty, a department and you are talking about strategic performance at institutional level. So there are opportunities. It's about developing right evidence base and presenting that at right time. Now it has already been said in various presentations, higher education institutions, we collect large number of data. And I think most of us after exam boards when we ship all the assessments to those containers over there and then some other dumping grounds, I should not be using that word but anyways so we collect all data that is there. So how we can actually use that data and create and develop evidence base that we can use to perform better at all various levels, challenges and then something that was actually said by the previous speaker at the end of the presentation. Now common vocabulary, common terms are coming out. Higher education institutions, complex organizations, small, big, no matter what size is there. These are complex organizations. Information and data exist in silos. This is my data. No matter how you do the integration, you will find somewhere over there in that corner that has his or her spreadsheet, no this is my data, I manage this process. Now if you want to bring that information in, so then the issue of data ownership, issue of personality class, I actually when I said that information and data exist in silos, I actually typed something else and then I removed with various attitudes. So various kind of attitudes towards information, ownership and that. And this research and this work is inherently multidisciplinary. How you deal with the challenge of multi-disciplinarity, that's another question. If you have people who are coming from teaching and learning, background and their areas are more like social science, the way they see information and if you have someone from IT services, they only design databases and provide you their view of data is totally different. So how you bring them together. So in my consultancy project, I think there was one chapter that focused on how you develop cross functional, multi-departmental, I came up with a very last term and I put it in the bowl, teams, how you do that, so these type of things. Another thing is we all do similar things, but we are unique also on many levels. So should we look for common vocabulary, should we strive for standardization or should we embrace diversity. So how we manage that, okay, measurability of learning outcomes, now thematic way, in a thematic way, in a descriptive way, we all measure learning outcomes, okay. But can we develop rubrics that can be then transformed into scorecards, okay. Now I want to talk kind of a data type of language here. So basically you have graphs, okay, a student, rather than you go and telling students where you are, what is your performance, student can see a graph, okay, that I have met that many learning outcomes of this program. So there are total 30 learning outcomes, I am there, this learning outcome, can we just get the data, we do this on a piece of paper when we evaluate this that this learning outcome have met, but can we do this using graphical kind of dashboards and all this. We all sit in exam boards, the academics who are sitting here with tons of kind of, you know, papers in, you know, in our hands and going through each student's performance. Can we have dashboards and all this. So improving and maybe reviewing the measurability of learning outcomes will actually give us that kind of ability to present that as kind of, you know, in dashboards, okay. Bringing people together, it's a right, it's step in right direction. Let us move on to next level. Setting up interest groups, maybe creating opportunity to work together, an annual conference, a publication. Okay, now another thing I just said a couple of seconds ago that like we do similar type of work, but we are unique also. We need to develop glossary of terms, we need to come up with definitions. When I did my, these just supported projects, I think there were 18 different universities. You go to one institution, their definition of engagement is slightly different than in other universities. Now, maybe this is the way it should be, but can we come up with a common theme and then we give that common theme to the various institutions, okay, and practitioners that you take it from here and then you build upon that, okay. Your engagement definition for your particular program in your environment could be slightly different, but you will get a common base. The problem that I have observed during my research is that that common base does not exist. People have a totally different view that what is engagement and sometimes I was surprised also. So, what should we measure? How we measure that, okay, a basic, you know, so what should we measure for student expectations? Student, we live in a very interesting age, okay, it's not that just measuring student expectations, sometimes managing student expectations is also a bigger challenge when student come to you with the expectations that you say that no, you have to do this thing to get the degree, okay, so this is part of the program, so how you do this, okay, right evidence base, right set of indicators, maybe this is where we can collaborate, okay, and then how these indicators kind of relate to each other, retentions. Retention is the biggest, it's a huge problem, particularly in my faculty, computing science, if you go in any institution, what retention indicators come from science programs, mainly from computing science program, that is a challenge for us, but sometimes reasons are so interesting, we did a survey, okay, a student left the program six weeks into the program and said, no, it's not for me, I'm going to open up, you know, a bicycle repair shop over there, so nobody told you before six weeks that this is not for you, and you just realize it, so basically, you know, where is this, you know, information, there is another thing that STEM careers, that's another area that, you know, people should move more into science education and all this, so there was a research done that in an area where there were regular STEM related seminars, any person who had attended just two seminars, there was 80% more probability that person will go into STEM careers, okay, so managing expectation, information, what they have before joining the college, okay, that has a huge impact on retention also, we need to develop common vocabulary, we need to develop common glossary and all this, okay, I think this is the next step that we should take, that's me.

Hey, what's going on guys? My name is John Hammond and welcome back to the Python programming tutorial and this one around We're taking a look at proxies. We're finally be able to set those up really really simply and really really easily so it's taken as a keyword argument in our URL open function and That's all so let's go find ourself a proxy. Let's go to Google Let's just look up proxies It don't matter and hey free proxy list. There they go proxy list hide my ass calm perfect Let's just scroll down and see one that is close by us Looks like this one from China is not that bad. It's got an IP address. It's got a port here So we want both of these information And we'll hop on over to idle import your lib You and let's actually create a variable for proxy and that's actually going to be a dictionary So this takes this schema that's going for which is always in this case HTTP And that's all it needs to be that's just gonna be our key and then we need actually The proxy itself so it's IP address and then specify its port with a colon and the port afterwards. So Where'd it go? Where the heck'd you go? You update that quickly? Holy crap Okay. No, there you are Let's just take you Okay, so now I've got that variable set up and if we actually run before we use the proxy. Let's actually check out Something so we can see our IP address before and just so you guys believe me. Let's go to httbin.org And forward slash proxy. Sorry for slash IP. We'll get us our IP. We just read this Okay, so that's my current IP address now. We want to know what it is after we supply a proxy You guys know that we can supply proxies as an argument in our URL open function So let's throw that in there We're gonna use it as a specific keyword argument because there are other things we could throw in this in this function So let's specify it with our proxies and then we'll use that proxy variable that we just created Now when we run this Takes a little bit because we're going through all of that networking to go through their their proxy and boom there It is really really simple now We're coming from their IP address rather than ours all we had to do is specify that we're using HTTP The proxy that we're gonna use its IP address and the port that we're going through super simple right super super easy We can build this into our own URL URL opener object with the if we create our own class if we subclass the thing and we use up the Super function to call the constructor with this proxy because there's no variable for it in The objects in the in the class kind of blueprint But we can do that with the super function if you guys need help setting that up and you're curious about it You can just say the word I'm not gonna go through and demonstrate it because I think this is simple enough and pretty easy to learn And follow through so cool. Hope you guys enjoyed it Hope you guys liked it and trust me we're using that proxy right now with everything we open up when specify We're gonna use that process that proxy. Thanks for watching everybody. See you in the next tutorial

How Narcissists put you under their spell. Narcissists are expert manipulators. They know how to fuel your emotions so that you overlook the red flags because our emotions are very powerful. They're more powerful than our intellect so if they can control your emotions they can control you. They make you feel a certain way about them and the situation. They use a detailed vision of the future to facilitate bonding and connection. They plant these ideas in your head of what could come into fruition and they do things that make you believe they're going to make it a reality but you have to hold on to them because they're indicating that they are important and useful to you which makes you work hard for them to keep them in your life because they're manipulating your emotions because why else would you hold on to them? Why else would anyone hold on to a narcissist? This is how they trap you. This is how they blind you. This is how they put you under their spell. It's how they're able to keep you unaware of what they're doing because they've managed to deceive you. You may have felt like something was wrong in the beginning but you always found a way to rationalize it. You made excuses for them when you already knew the truth. You already knew that something was not right. Many of you have caught the narcissist cheating. Many of you have caught them stealing from you. Many of you have caught them lying to you but they still managed to get you to change your thoughts and decisions about it. They managed to get you to relax after being radio alert even after they lied to you and manipulated you and you knew exactly what they were doing but you still changed your thoughts about it because you wanted to believe that they cared about you. You wanted to believe they're a good person and they're on your side. You weren't seeing that this person could hurt you. You weren't seeing that they could leave you without resources or help. You weren't thinking about that. If you were, you wouldn't give them a chance. You wouldn't tolerate their behavior but you do because you think they care about you just like you care about them but they don't. They're not like you. They're very different. That's how they lack affection and warmth. It's how they don't have any sympathy for you. It's how it's so easy for them to not feel your pain or show serious or careful thought or real understanding when they finally get rid of you because you've accepted them as being deserving of your trust. You're expecting them to share the same thoughts and feelings that you have of them but they're not going to return that same thing back to you. When you put up with things from the narcissist it's because you think they would do the same thing for you. You think they would consider you. You think that they would show compassion for you because you're together in a relationship and they're showing you that they want to be with you but they don't follow the same moral rules or standards of good behavior or fair dealing as you do. They don't have the same morals and values. If they're going through a difficult time, you might struggle to overcome, eliminate and prevent something for them. You might do anything to help them but if they change from being in a weaker position to being in a stronger position they wouldn't do the same for you. They would get rid of you. They would replace you and leave you without resources or help which is something that many of you can't comprehend. Many of you can't make sense of that which is why you really need to have this talk with the people that you get involved with. You need to ask them that if you were in need of something, if you didn't have enough money, food or good health, would they have the same amount of understanding as you would have for them? Would they have the same amount of patience? Would they bring approval and kindness to you just as you would do for them? This is something you really need to ask yourself. Would they give you the same type of treatment that you would give to them and if you're unsure about that or if you have never seen them behaving in that way then that should tell you everything that you need to know. There may have been times where you loaned the narcissist some money and they may have taken a long time to pay you back. They may have made a lot of excuses but you were okay with it. You didn't pressure them about it but then you borrowed money from them and they didn't have the same patience and understanding. They may have started insulting you. They may have threatened to call the police if they didn't get their money on time because they couldn't relate. They couldn't feel the same way as you do. They couldn't see that when they did it, you were patient with them. You didn't insult them. You didn't threaten them but they don't have the same understanding. They don't think the same way as you do. They don't think that you loaned them money and you had a lot of patience with them. You didn't assault them or threatened them so they shouldn't treat you that way. They don't think like that because they lack empathy. They lack the ability to understand and enjoy your feelings. They lack the ability to put themselves in your shoes. They're self-centered. They're only interested in themselves. They have no regard for you. They're not even looking at the bigger picture to see that they put you in that situation, which is how you should already know that there's going to be a problem later down the line because for them to put you under their spell, there needs to be double standards. There needs to be codes and policies that favor them over you. You will always need to be given them better treatment than they're given to you and anyone who does that is going to be a problem to you because they think it's okay for them to be doing that to you. But if you did that to them, they wouldn't put up with it. They wouldn't accept it but they want you to accept them. They want you to accept things that they would never accept from you. And that is a huge red flag. You will have problems with anyone who thinks that way because they will want you to overlook it. They will want you to be asleep when they do something wrong. They won't want you to pay attention to it. They don't have the same understanding. They don't think the same way as you do which is why they can't put themselves in your situation. They can't see that they wouldn't like it if someone did that to them which is why they will betray you. They will break their promise. They will lie. They will be disloyal. They will steal from you. But sometimes it's good to be in these situations so that you can see how they respond. So you can see if they're really in your corner. You can see if they're really on your side because that will tell you if they're really investing in you. If they only care about themselves or if they're united with you. The narcissist will put you under their spell because they want you to overlook problems. They want you to forget about things that they've done wrong. They want you to think that things will get better on their own. But things won't get better. They never will. You will experience a very difficult struggle that requires a great deal of effort and determination and you won't understand how you could do so much for them but they couldn't do the same for you in return which is something that you need to be aware of because when you're dealing with them you will find that you're always the one who has to do the right thing. You always have to prevent your anger from taking control of you and you are the one that has to go through things that are not good for you. Not them. They never have to deal with anything. They never have to share your pain. It's all on you every single time. You're left to carry the weight. You're left to apologize. You're left to fix things and make things right. To make things more interesting. To add excitement and entertainment to their lives. While they indirectly express their negative feelings instead of openly addressing them. While they insult you and put you down. While they constantly make you feel like you're doing something wrong because they put you under their spell. Narcissists are always thinking of ways to hurt you. They can never be normal because they're afraid. They live in fear. They're very insecure. They constantly scan in the environment of threats because they're in survival mode. They're just trying to survive. So they always need to have an advantage. They always need control. So they can't afford to be equal or fair. They have to bargain with you. They have to deal with you on a budget instead of giving you the same treatment that you're giving to them. There will never be any fairness for the narcissist which means that they will never be loyal to you because they can't afford it. They can't invest in you because they just see you as a means to an end. They see you as something temporary. They're already expecting things to go wrong. Because things do go wrong. As a result of their own behavior, which is why they don't believe in you or trust you. They don't believe in or trust anything. So even if there was a perfect person walking the earth and they managed to be involved with them, they would still find a way to mess it up because they are the problem and they know it. So their mission is to find someone who can fix the problem. Their mission is to find someone who can fix them. Someone who will overlook and tolerate their shock of behavior. Someone who will be their doma. Someone who will be their fool and love them without conditions or limits. Without wanting anything in return. Without desiring any fairness or equality. That's the kind of person they want. So the more like that you are, the longer they're going to keep you around and they will do that by keeping you under their spell. By making you not aware or concerned about all of the things they're doing to you. To break you down mentally so that they can do what they want to you and get away without any consequences. And you're just supposed to take it. You're just meant to accept it. Thank you for watching. I hope this video resonates with you. Please like, comment, share and subscribe.

What's good Charles Schubert Ross back hanging in with another video so Couple weeks ago. Somebody had hit me up in the DMs and suggested that I check out WWE 2k gameplay glitches and that's what we're gonna do man the funny thing about WWE 2k I've heard for the past few years it has been Just an awful game to play because it's damn near broken Like there's a lot of bugs a lot of glitches that Happens throughout the game the gameplay innovation isn't really there It's like just a rehash copy from the previous year So I've heard a lot of negative things about the game I've had a couple people asking me would I ever play WWE 2k? Probably not I haven't played a wrestling video game in a very long time since like the 90s So I'm more of a just strictly a Call of Duty player But we're gonna check out some of these glitches man, and like I said, I've heard awful stories about WWE 2k the past few years So we're just gonna check it out. I'm gonna give my little reactions to this man Make sure you subscribe to the channel if you're new appreciate all the love and support roll to 20k Can't believe I'm still saying that that's insane. Let's check this out, man Hey guys, we're taking a look at the WWE 2k 20 Easter eggs glitches What? Glitches and Easter eggs in this game. I haven't played it. These are clips from all around Twitter and YouTube. It was actually Trending on Twitter today Hashtag fixed WWE 2k Well, it's it the game needs fixing But yeah guys, let me know what you are What watching all these crazy drugs these insane bugs in the game. Hopefully they fix the game You know, they've had a good reputation with the game in So this is a bit unfortunate, but anyway, leave a like guys if you do enjoy it and Subscribe if you want to see more of this sort of content and enjoy guys This guy's dangerous This is what the WWE 2k community deals with Wait, what you got an invisible chair, bro. I mean invisible person holding the chair dog Bro, that's bad This is a $60 game, I'm pretty sure they charge for regular retail price $60 and you're telling me you have bugs like this That's bad. Yo What if your shirt isn't tucked into your pants? Oh my god, this is this is Comical gold just gold right here. I am I can't believe this is the thing What have been lit just waiting for the big finale. What is oh My god, that is not good That's just bad Whoa What the What? What the fuck is this this kid did anybody play test this game But what wait Why is the ref just floating wait, what is Bo this is that can't be real Become WWE divas champion. Is this some kind of WWE nerd vision board? Hey Being immortalized and semi-posable plastic is the greatest thing a human being can achieve these graphics is not looking good either like This was a huge mistake That marker bring it to your grandmother's nursing home and cross out parts of her chart So when the nurse goes to give her turn down service, she won't know to flip her over. That's right I'm gonna give your grandma. What is wrong with this? Why are they walking like that? Why the ref is just literally drafting in the ring He's just in there This is what you guys deal with wait, what what's why is it Well, this is bad This is this is that's bad Yo, these two are gonna be able to mess together these graphics team Considering they really can't stand they don't They're not looking to to appealing it looks like What's going on? It's like what is is page having like an exorcist moment right now? I'm really disappointed in these graphics man like these graphics look like Some Graphics bro, what is this?

So I'm not sure man It's this is insane. Yo, but uh, I hope you guys enjoyed that reaction, bro That was that was insane not even a lie to you There's even a little screenshot here that shows 60 minutes of glitches and funny moments That's that's too much footage. That's that's bad man. So comment down below. I want to know who Unfortunately purchased WWE 2k 20 and if you did purchase it Did you have any glitches like this? And if you did have any glitches like this, did you return it and get your money back because this is awful? This is this is definitely a product that should not have been Delivered at all. So but I appreciate our love and support road to 20k. Appreciate y'all kicking with me See y'all next one. Peace

The gaming world is rife with combat racing games, everything from the Mario Kart series to Need for Speed, and even smaller lesser known titles like Konami Crazy Racers. But here's another Game Boy Advance game that takes combat racing in a different kind of direction, with Car Battler Joe, which combines combat racing with roleplaying game elements. It's not the first game to do this, for instance the PlayStation alone has stuff like Ridge Racer R4 and Racing Lagoon just to name a couple racing RPGs, but this is still a pretty unique game. You might know the developer, Ancient, who's made games ranging from Act Razor 2 and Robo Trek on the Super Nintendo to Beyond Oasis on Sega Genesis all the way to Shenmue on Dreamcast. In other words, they tend to specialize in games that can be tough to pin down to one specific trait or genre, and sure enough, Car Battler Joe fits that motif, and this is the only game that they ended up developing on the Game Boy Advance. Joe is a 16 year old kid, and this guy's really into combat racing, or just generally smashing into things. His friends recognize his talent for this unique skill, to the point that Joe even receives a gun vehicle control module for his birthday. Joe is obsessed with combat racing to the point that he wants to find his dad who apparently ran off to become the biggest baddest combat racer in all the land or something, so you go around talking to people collecting clues and entering races all with the ultimate goal of trying to find your dad. The racing in combat takes place from an overhead Mode 7 viewpoint, where you fire at enemies and obstacles using all sorts of weapons, everything from bombs, napalm, lasers, even saw blades, but you're mostly using your default machine gun. Unfortunately, the game got a little too cutesy with the weapon system here, sure all the different weapons are fun to have, but the game automatically switches between them depending on how far away the enemy is. In other words, you have to stop shooting for a moment to get the right weapon equipped for the right situation, it's pretty awkward. Anyway, your car itself can gain special abilities, everything from jumping and speed boosts, and these are cool because they allow you to go back to previous areas and find new stuff, like upgrades for your vehicle. The thing is though, as far as the mission structure here goes, it sounds a lot more interesting on paper than it is in practice. The meat and potatoes of the gameplay boil down to just running fetch quests for people, completing missions, and get from one point to another faster than another person. For instance, one job has you driving a pop singer to a concert. Sure, okay. Also, the beginning of Car Battler Joe is really gonna turn some people off, because as you might expect, since this is an RPG, you get to level up your car and build it up from scratch. Hey wait, that's actually kinda cool, right? Well, it is, eventually, but the problem is that your car absolutely sucks when you first start out, the handling is bad, it's too slow, your weapon's kinda flimsy, it's a total bummer. I get what they were going for here, but I think they went a bit too far, and as a result, I think a lot of people put this one down pretty quickly. Still, once you run a few jobs and get some basics to fix up your car, the game gets a lot better. One interesting facet here in Car Battler Joe is this kind of simulation element. Enemies or obstacles can drop resources after you make them go boom, and you can choose to take back what they drop and use what you find for a variety of different purposes. You can sell it for money, you can deliver it to someone or exchange it for something else, or you can use it to build up your own garage. This gives the game kind of an open-ended feel to it, which is kinda cool. Speaking of open-ended, as far as the story goes, things start out in a linear fashion, you win your first tournament, but pretty much after that, you're on your own to really go out and find the story, so to speak. Whether that's doing jobs for people, exploring towns, building your garage, or just, you know, fighting. You also meet characters like Marion, Joe's love interest, and Ken, your racing rival. But I'll admit, the story here isn't all that compelling, it's pretty generic stuff, in fact, but to its credit, Car Battler Joe isn't the kind of game that holds your hand. To the point that it allows you, the player, to control the pace, to a certain extent, so I appreciate that. The thing is, once you do advance the story toward the end of the game, it really feels thrown together and almost incomplete at times. The point is, while I appreciate how the story is laid out, I don't think it's a good enough reason to play this one on its own. The combat is what carries the show here. So yeah, Car Battler Joe is a great example of a hit or miss game. For every good quality or interesting gameplay mechanic, there's something equally as bad or annoying. The combat is fun, but it should have been streamlined to be a bit more player-friendly. The resource collecting is interesting, but the menu system can really get clunky and cumbersome. The music is really good, but the visual presentation falls kind of flat, with a lot of settings getting repeated. Still, I do think there's more good than bad here. I like just about any game that allows you to explore for stuff, find rare items, and then level them up, almost like a mech strategy game like Front Mission. And I do really like this game's use of the Mode 7 perspective. Once you've built up your card of something usable, it's fun to drive around and just blow stuff up. But still, the flaws I pointed out are going to be deal breakers for some of you out there, so I have to point them out. Despite the flaws, however, I do think Car Battler Joe is worth trying out. And I want to thank you for watching, and I hope you have a great rest of your day.

Howdy. We are here from Cloudflare, and we are here to discuss our story on memory encryption. I'm Derek, and I work on the infrastructure security team here at Cloudflare, and I'm based out of Austin, Texas. And I'm Brian. I'm a hardware engineer on Cloudflare's hardware team, and I'm also based out of Austin. Our primary focus is on designing what our next generation server platform looks like and how we can make it highly secure without impacting performance. So before we get started, there is one quick slide on who we are as a company and our global presence to help visualize what we are doing in order to understand the level of work it takes when we design our server platforms. So a little bit about who we are. Our network spans across 200 cities in more than 95 countries, including 17 cities in mainland China. We have interconnects with over 8,800 networks globally, including major ISPs, cloud services, and enterprises. We have internet properties that are over 27 million and used by approximately 13% of the Fortune 1000. More than 1 billion unique IP addresses pass through Cloudflare's network every day. We operate within 100 milliseconds of 99% of the internet-connected population in the developed world and over 95% of the internet-connected population globally. Just for context, the blink of an eye is 300 to 400 milliseconds. We serve 14 million HTTP requests per second on average with more than 17 million HTTP requests per second at peak. We consistently do approximately 4.6 million DNS queries per second. That's around 400 billion queries per day and about 11.9 trillion queries per month. We wanted to talk about these numbers because everything we do is at scale. At the same time, security is of utmost importance. So we wanted to talk a little about encryption and how we handle encryption here at Cloudflare. We do encrypt different data states. We encrypt data at rest, including our cache on disk. One of our engineers recently made a post about patching the de-encrypt Linux module because he found that while the cost of SSD and flash drives went down, the modules were still built for spinning disks. So a patch was created to remove all the extra queuing and asynchronous behavior and revert de-encrypt to its original purpose. We simply encrypt de-encrypt Iowakrists as they pass through since we were using faster storage mechanisms than we were 10 years ago. We also encrypt data in transit. We have even collaborated with the Internet Engineering Task Force on evolving and standardizing the latest version of TLS. This helps to address some of the older cryptographic problems and design flaws with TLS that created the conditions for attacks like part lead, poodle, and beserk. But what about data and use? This is data that is being processed by one or more applications and data that's currently in the process of being created, updated, appended, or deleted. It also includes data that is being viewed by users accessing it through various endpoints and is the data that is successful to different kinds of threats depending on where it is in the system and who is able to use it. While we use different methods to protect data in use, we are always challenging ourselves with better protection modes. So one of our concerns is that someone could come in and steal one of our servers out of a data center or a colo. But it doesn't necessarily have to be a mission impossible style snatch and grab. How many of you have received reports of racks that were left unlocked or worse missing a door? I joke around about these things, but they do happen. Racks can be left unprotected and sometimes controls can be bypassed. So if someone were to steal one of our servers, the question becomes what exactly could they pull off of it? So when we just started discussing the concept of protecting data in use or further protecting data in use, we wanted to address how we could protect memory at our current and future scale. And the reason this is important is that data is stored in the clear. This can leave data vulnerable to snooping by unauthorized administrators or different methods of probing. Dim memory modules when powered down gradually lose data over time as they lose power, but do not immediately lose all data when power is lost. We've seen from a flux of research papers that memory modules can potentially retain at least some data for up to 90 minutes after power loss. Well, a reboot will generally take care of flushing memory caches, right? That's what, you know, cold boot attack worse to feed. Dump the contents of reboot, retain physical memory, be a form of modifications, which an attacker can then use to inspect that data. New or non-volatile memory technologies exacerbate this problem since an NB dim chip can be physically removed from a system with a data intact as it uses NAND flash to store a copy of its contents similar to our hard drive. Without encryption, any stored information such as sensitive data, passwords, or secret keys can be easily compromised. So do these attacks really happen? Cold boot attacks, as mentioned previously, first talked about more than a decade ago. I've started making a comeback with recent research papers introducing new methods to defeat DDR memory scrambling technologies that were used to obfuscate data written across a memory bus. By monitoring memory bus transactions, attackers are listening and looking for objects that can be secret in nature, think passwords, TLS keys, etc. Since the data was merely obfuscated via XOR and not encrypted, these attacks themselves were not very sophisticated, leaving DRAM exposed to memory extraction techniques. And then we had Rambly, which allowed an unprivileged attacker to read out certain memory belonging to other processes by leveraging the row hammer and bit flipping effect. Common hardware mitigations such as targeted row refresh, introduce other potential attack vectors like trespass, increasing the DRAM refresh rate leads to fewer bit flips, but there is a power and performance trade-off. And while ECC memory does complicate the attack, it does not prevent it. So we started looking into ways of better protecting memory, and we started looking at enclaves. Its memory encryption and isolation can be achieved with enclaves. It can be done in software only, but hardware manufacturers made hardware-assisted trusted execution environments to help create security boundaries by isolating software execution at runtime so that sensitive data can be processed in a trusted environment such as a secure area inside an existing processor or a trusted platform module. But enclaves were really meant to only process and run small pieces of code, not an entire OS. While there have been research papers that have shown how you can do it, they have come with performance trade-offs. On-cape page class is also limited to 128 to 256 megabytes of cache, and there still is a performance trade-off by enabling that. And at the same time, application refactoring is required in order not just to enable but also to use the enclave itself. And there have been a string of recent vulnerabilities that have come out, things like low-value injection, which are transient execution attacks that inject attacker data into a victim program and steal sensitive data and keys from an enclave. Recently, cache out, which is a newer speculative execution attack that is capable of leaking data from caching mechanisms including enclaves. And SCAX, which is a further evolution of cache out in the form of an enclave side-channel attack. So we made a series of blog posts earlier in March regarding our next-generation server hardware that we labeled GenX for the 10th generation, and it's based off of the AMD Rome architecture. We spoke about thermal design power, improvements in L3 cache, and overall performance tuning. But we were surprised at some of the included security features which weren't readily available from other manufacturers. In this case, it was secure memory encryption. Secure memory encryption is an X86 instruction set extension introduced by AMD in 2016. So it's been around for a few years for page granular memory encryption support using a single ephemeral key at boot with a new key generated by the processor in every boot. A page that is marked encrypted will be automatically decrypted when read from DRAM and encrypted when written to DRAM. And while there have been a handful of presentations and papers on secure encrypted virtualization, also MSF, it wasn't a feature we would use as we typically do not isolate with hypervisors. The SME components are fairly straightforward. There's an AES 128-bit encryption engine that is embedded in the memory controllers and is able to transparently encrypt and decrypt data in main memory when an encryption key has been provided via the secure processor. Then you have the AMD secure processor, which is an on-die 32-bit ARM Cortex A5 CPU that provides cryptographic functionality for secure key generation and key management. You could think of this like a mini hardware security module that uses a hardware random number generator to generate the 128-bit AES keys used by the encryption engine. The AS algorithm uses a physical address as a type of nuts. It is hardware isolated, so keys are never sent in the clear outside of the system on a chip, and it runs its own secure OS in Chrome. So how it works? It works by requiring and by enabling a model-specific register, which is a control register responsible for executing the x86 instruction sets. This enables the ability to set a page table entry encryption that here we have the documentation officially from the AMD developers manual. Support for SME can be determined through the following CPU ID function. BitZero indicates support for SME and again the relevant AMB documentation. Here you can see it on a test box, the validation output. You can validate that it's turned on by viewing the message buffer output by grepping for SME. You can view the EAX register contents by using the CPU ID utility to show support for the instruction in the processor and validating that Bit23 in the MSR is present. So how it works for an actual write after memory encryption is enabled. A physical address bit, also known as the ZC bit for encrypted bit, is utilized to mark if a memory page is protected. The operating system sets the bit of a physical address to one in the page table entry to indicate the page should be encrypted. This causes any data assigned to that memory space to automatically be encrypted when written in memory. So a page will be allocated, that page is zeroized, the encryption bit in the PTE if it's set clear or if it's been cleared, set it. Then with series of instructions is flushing the translation look aside buffer, flush memory caches, update the PTA, and then flush the TLB again. And when data is read, the secure processor provides the key to the AS engine to decrypt the data. The operating system sets the bit of the physical address to zero in the page table entry to indicate the page should be decrypted. And this is how standard SME works. And while it would be great to mark the pages we want encrypted ad hoc, we wanted to ensure that all memory was encrypted by default. And so that's when we looked into transparent SME. And as the name suggests, all memory is encrypted and it's performed transparent in the background, invisible to the US. All traffic going to the memory controller is encrypted, regardless of the value of the encrypt bit on any particular page. This includes instruction pages, data pages, pages corresponding to the page table itself. And no applications were required. So no need to refactor any applications to ensure that the applications themselves are using encrypted memory. It's a BIOS UEFI option that when enabled sets the MSR bit to active. Then your OS can activate memory encryption by default by setting the following kernel flag and by supplying mem encrypt equals on on the kernel command line. So now that we know that it's active, we wanted to test and see if it worked. So the built and built and loaded a kernel module specifically for memory testing that allocates a page of memory and zeroes out the allocated memory and issues a set memory decrypted function call against allocated memory. This specific function call is called to remove the encryption bit associated with the buffer under test. This doesn't actually decrypt the contents of the memory buffer, but we'll just mark it as not encrypted. This can then be used to compare against the reference buffer and determine the state of secure memory encryption. Then we check if the allocated memory is still zero. If SME is enabled, memory will still be all zeros. If SME is disabled, memory will not be zeros. So here we load the specific kernel module and then we get an error and we do that intentionally. We want the load specifically to intentionally fail so that the module doesn't have to be unloaded before we running the test while still capturing the default output. So with the module failure, we can still see the contents of the memory buffer. We can view the module output to console where we can see the printout of the actual hex dump. The printout shows the beginning of the buffer before the call to set memory decrypted. That checks buffer, buffer reference, and page size is still set to zero and after where the buffers do not match. So now we know it works. How old does it perform to our performance testing as well as rolling it out to production? And I'll hand it off to you, Brian, to go over the results. All right, thanks. So, yeah, as Derek said, now that we knew that the feature worked, our next step was to test how, if it any, it would affect performance. So we ran a series of benchmarks in the lab and then based on the results of those, we took it to production. The GenX servers that we're running this on have 832 gig dims running at 2933 megahertz. And we're using the Epic 7642 processor, which has 48 cores and 96 threads. And we're running in nodes per socket equals 4 mode. We're a Debian shop. We run Debian 9 on these servers. And our kernel version is 5.4.12. So the first test we ran was the stream industry standard memory bandwidth test. We use the standard stream.c available from the University of Virginia. But one change we did make was to increase the data set size to be around 5 gigabytes. And the reason why is that these processors have a large 256 megabyte level free cache and we didn't want that big cache skewing the results. So the graph that you're looking at here, you can see that depending on which subbenchmark you look at, we saw anywhere from a 2.6% to a 4.2% performance loss from implementing SME. The next test we ran was the Crip setup command. This tool is normally used to encrypt disks, but in this case, it has a built-in cryptography benchmark that we can use to, as a quick test of CPU and memory performance. And on this test, we saw less than 1% performance loss from activating SME. So this benchmark is not particularly memory bandwidth constrained. And then finally, we ran a custom web traffic benchmark that was developed by our performance team. This uses cloud for workers to generate web traffic from one host to another in the lab. And again, here we saw roughly 1% performance hit when transferring this small 10 kilobit byte image from one host to another. It uses 256 concurrent clients to do that. So encouraged by these results, we went ahead and activated SME on a host in production and then compared it to the performance of a host that's sitting right next to it in the rack. So they're both in the same polo, just one with SME off and one with SME on. This graph is a snapshot of the recent interval of web traffic to the server. This is nginx request service. And you can see the performance of the two servers track each other pretty closely. We are averaging an over-the-time period that you see here around 5% fewer requests per second service by the host that has SME enabled. Thanks for that, Brian. So what's next? So some of our future work includes doing this set of fleet-wide rollout. We currently have this enabled in a colo and we are pleased with a lot of the results. So planning on rolling this out fleet-wide. Also, I put in the ball in Intel's court for total memory encryption. This spec has been released or was released back in 2017. And we've recently seen Intel make some progress and deploying this in some of their future processors. So we'll be excited to test this as well. At the same time, more research. We love testing CPUs so we're looking to see if ARM has a risk equivalent as we believe full memory encryption to be a technology that will be widely adopted. Also looking into some newer AMD features for memory encryption when it comes to secure nested paging and seeing if it can protect container on times. So to summarize, first, memory attacks will happen. They will continue to get more sophisticated even as we continue to create countermeasures for them. Full memory encryption is available. This is an added security feature that doesn't require co-refactoring. And it's something that was surprisingly easy to turn on and test. And the overhead isn't as bad as we thought. And the majority of test results performance decreased by a nominal amount, actually less than we expected. And these official white paper on SME even states that encryption and decryption of memory through the AS engine does incur a small amount of additional latency for DRAM memory access, although it is dependent on the workload. Across all 11 data points, our average performance drag was only down by 0.699%. Even at scale, enabling this feature reduces the worry that any data could be extra-streated from a stolen server. So for up-to-date info on what we're working on, please feel free to follow our blog where we are consistently publishing content on new technologies and topics that are relevant in the standage. And with that, we thank you. Thanks for watching. Hi, Derek and I are here to answer questions. We had some good ones coming in through the Q&A. Angie asks, what's the overhead of encrypting memory? Hopefully we addressed that to your satisfaction, Angie. We ran a bunch of synthetic tests and saw anywhere from 0% up to about 4.6% hit on the test that we were running. And then on our live production environment, it's anywhere like 4% to 5% overhead, as in fewer requests per second serviced by NGINX with SME feature turned on. Fernando asks, does the chip manufacturer have similar instructions like AMD and sell the ARM? Do you manage this on smaller devices and not desktops? So yeah, we addressed it Intel has a spec for total memory encryption as well as multi-key total memory encryption, which is similar to AMD. They do have it on some smaller chipsets too, actually AMD does. As far as ARM, we're still trying to investigate. They don't share the same x86 instruction sets that Intel and AMD do. But we're in discussions to find out if they have a relevant equivalent. Yeah, and there were some press releases from Intel based on their summit that they had a security summit earlier this year where they said that they are kind of getting the infrastructure in place for their implementation of this. And patches to the Linux kernel and stuff like that. And that the feature would be supported in hardware on just future chips. So they haven't really made specific announcement about when that'll happen. But that's a good question. We got that one from a couple of people. Yeah. Any experience on using SEV with VMs or containers you can share. So not looking at SEVs because all of the we've seen extensions for that for containers, we are more interested in like the secure nested paging feature with an AMD chip sets that we're looking into as it protects those container run times. I'm not sure if you can answer, but has SEVs called for a notice server that various coworkers experience completely or worse suddenly going offline and they're coming back online. Not that we can really answer it, but it's a concern of of us and hence we wanted to protect kind of like the smooth physical attack vectors. This being one of them that if this were to happen, you know, how could we ensure that that are our hard work itself was with being protected as best as possible. Is there any reason to use transparent SME instead of SME if the OS Linux supports SME, and then we wanted to just do it transferring the background have it be more BIOS controlled. So, you know, we didn't want to just turn it on ad hoc. And since a lot of what we do is when we deploy our hardware we automate a lot of the configurations we figured it was a lot easier just to turn this slide on. And then we already answered the info question. The comparison between SGX and SME is not right here. We, you're right, it is actually a different threat model. The reason we brought that on is that it was more or less from from some of the onset side. We didn't want the specific overhead of actually enabling on place because there were limitations if we were looking at protecting all memory. We didn't want to have that limited memory space. Most SGX machines from what we found out, you know, just allocated a maximum of 128 megs of memory for the EPC non-clay page cache. And that would be shared once all enclaves so we didn't arbitrarily want to choose what we wanted to run in the enclave. We just were more consistently worried about memory protection. So, while not the same threat model, it was still the same concern. That's all the questions we have. Yeah, I think we addressed them all. Oh, wait a second, there's a second page. Let's try and get to some more of these if we can. You see at the top where you can click 203? Yeah, would it make sense to provision per user memory encryption keys? That's something that we have thought about. Something that we're still looking into. So, yeah, that's potentially a use case too. In virtual machines, choose to utilize as an independent of the host. Yeah, that's a feature of securing the virtualization. So, if you are running hypervisors, you'd have the host OS run its own encryption key and every VM have encryption key assigned to it. SME doesn't have cryptographic integrity. Can you give some thoughts on whether your threat model is the tactic of integrity? If it doesn't include, should it? Yeah, that's a tough question. We, it does. And I think that's something that we've kind of addressed with the vendor specifically. As I said, if we're trying to do some sort of measurement, then it's either going to be a combination of some other features that we are going to enable or something we defer back to the vendor too. So, Michael asks, you were using 32 gig dims. Oh, sorry. Yeah, that's okay. You were using 32 gig dims. Do you anticipate any additional problem with higher density memory? I don't think the feature is going to work significantly different with a different memory config. I don't have any measurements to base that on just because it is all in hardware. It's all built into the memory controllers. I would expect it would work the same way with 64 gig dims. So the last one I'll take is, can I fact edit the boot artist's stable memory encryption? No, we're learning that with other features. So things like, so what I'm based on, the trust and other features to prevent that. So that's a big thing too. And some models that you can do to kind of like limit that as well. And that's something that we're going to look at sharing in a future talk. Thanks everybody for the questions. That's a great time. Yep. Thank you.

Welcome to the latest in our Just Society conversations. I'm joined by Dr Liz McFall, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, and Stream Lead on Digital Participation in the Citizenship and Governance Strategic Research Area, and by Darren Omney, author, researcher, curator. Welcome to you both. Liz, what's going on? Why are we celebrating Milton Keynes? Why now? Well, that's a really good question. The first and obvious answer is that Milton Keynes celebrates his 50th birthday this year, and this week they're running a week-long festival called M.K. City Fest, which the Open University is part of. And the reason we're part of that is that although the University and Milton Keynes share a history, the University is looking forward to its 50th birthday in about two years time. So they are both part of a sort of grand post-war social experiment. And although that is true, there are also peculiar tensions between the University and Milton Keynes, and the links between them and the dislocations between them haven't really fully been explored. And this is despite the fact that John Campbell, who was instrumental in bringing the University to Milton Keynes, and was the first chair of Milton Keynes' Development Corporation, described Milton Keynes as the scriptural home of the University. So, both the University and Milton Keynes face a particular kind of challenge at the moment, reflecting back on their last 50 years and forward to the next 50 years. In the case of Milton Keynes, you have a starting point of imagining a town that didn't exist that was designed to meet certain sorts of objectives, was designed to fit in with the way people would live. John Campbell also said that he thought a University should be about, try that again, he thought that a University, he thought that Milton Keynes, sorry, he thought that Milton Keynes was an opportunity to experiment and to do something different. Yes, to enact a vision in which value isn't just about cash, there's about truth, beauty, dignity, different ways of living. Well, you make yourself very attractive, but why does it feel to you particularly, Darren, this project of Milton Keynes and the Open University? Well, Milton Keynes is where I was born 50 years ago, so I'm celebrating my birthday, kind of the same year almost as Milton Keynes, and so I've got kind of a long, deep history of being here, and I've watched it grow up alongside myself. So there's a personal interest, but I've been away, I've done lots of other things. I've come back to do a PhD at the EU, which I've just finished. Congratulations. And I'm also working on an exhibition at the moment, which is using Milton Keynes as a kind of data set to explore some of the issues that Lizard was just talking about really. And this PhD is in design? It is in design, yes, but the PhD isn't about Milton Keynes, but the ideas of design, the concepts of design, how we think about the world and how we try to make changes in the world is really kind of an idea that permeates my PhD. The notion of Milton Keynes and how the EU works as well. Perfect. So design, and you're coming from the social sciences background, Liz, does this make you both experts in this topic of Milton Keynes and the Open University? Oh, I don't think it certainly doesn't. I mean, you live here, you work here. Yeah, that's my key claim to expertise about Milton Keynes. I live here, and I've lived here 21 years. And I've done what I think I keep hearing is a fairly standard thing of arriving and finding the place very difficult and then gradually, grudgingly, learning how to love it. And Milton Keynes is a very paradoxical place. It is full of kind of weird and really peculiar contrasts in the sense that it's an incredibly green city in a forest was the design idea, but also very in other places, very brutalist, very modernist design. It has a grid system, which in one sense is North American, but Milton Keynes' grid system is wonky and described as tartan. Because within the grid system, every neighbourhood that's a grid square within the grid system is different. So it's this patchwork of different elements. It's wonky in part to make room for the communities that already existed. Bletchley, Stone Stratford, Wolverton, we're all here already. So the grid sort of moves around those spaces. So it has horizontals, it has verticals, but they don't follow straight lines and sometimes even me. OK, so what about your disciplines? Let's say sociology and let's say design, but you're interested in a range of disciplines. Are there any concepts there or any gurus who help us understand Milton Keynes? Well, I think probably the expression of culture in society. One of the key intellectual projects I've been involved with is the establishment of an interdisciplinary field called cultural economy. Cultural economy doesn't signal, it's not about art galleries, the film industry, the music industries. Cultural economy is meant to signal the boundaries between things. This is an important disciplinary point. The boundaries between things are only what we make them. They're only the work that we do to establish a clear sense for ourselves that, oh, that's different from that. But if you actually turn things inside out, you discover that the most mundane of occupations and sectors are actually quite cultural. So bankers, accountants, building designers. And yeah, town planners are involved in deeply cultural work in the sense that they're involved in an orchestration of technique and sentiment together to try and build things that fit into people's lives that people can use. So that field is about understanding what culture is in terms of being a meaningful practice rather than culture as the aesthetic realm, culture as music, culture as art. So bringing that to bear on how you design a new city, how you design a new town is also about saying, well, how do you pull people in? How do you lure them? How do you attract them? How do you make people want to live here? It's not just about, well, how do you design, draw, build a building? And in your research, it's not just a doctorate, as you said, it's on design more generally, but now working in local communities and understanding the data around. How does that help understand this town or city? Taking one of the housing estates, Netherfield, it had a fairly poor reputation not long after it was built. It's only just the next grid square from here, so it's just there. And it's an incredible piece of architecture. The design of it is quite underrated. And looking at it, trying to trace the history of it, the drawings that the architects made, talking to the architects about it, talking to the planners and the corporation executives who are responsible for making it happen, allowing it to happen, but also trying to stop it happen as well. The design of the building, the building itself, but also the minutes of the corporation, go back to Lizard's point again about the design process is inflected through everything. And the design of the city, you look at the corporation minute books and they are arguing about whether Netherfield should be allowed to be built, should be built for rental or for sale. And the whole of the ethos of the city at times always 50-50 sale rent. And Netherfield eventually was built purely for rent. So there's loads of tensions in there. There's loads of what the architects wanted the place to be like and what it turned into. It's all tracked through the data that's generated by the city, by the people who live in it, by the people who imagine it. You both seem like evangelist ambassadors for Milton Keynes, which is great. And for your own disciplines and the working between them. So two final questions are, how does the Open University make a difference to Milton Keynes? And what exactly are we doing by way of celebration this coming week? Dan, do you think the Open University does make a difference? I think it makes a difference. So it makes a difference to me. It gives me the platform to make those explorations. And so does that for anybody else who engages with the academic institution and the academic community? Obviously how it changes moving forward for the next 50 years. There's a whole bunch of challenges in there. OK. And what about what's happening this week? How are you involved? Well, the product of my Netherfield research is on display at the Milton Keynes Gallery. Fantastic. So that opens on Thursday and it's on for a month. We've got congratulations. It's going to be great. You've got to come. Yes, I will. There's original architects drawings. There's photographs from John Donat who took the 1972 material. There's a fabulous book that folds out for three metres of the Netherfield terraces. Three metres? And there's an 18 foot long drawing that the architect made. So it's big, it's visual, it's long. It fulfills the design kind of brief of the architecture, isn't it? It's a big, long thing. Looking forward to it. Does the Open University make a difference to Milton Keynes? And what are you doing this week? I think the Open University, Milton Keynes is a challenge to the university. I think it's a reminder that whilst academics are sort of figuring out problems about culture and society and how you design it. Just society. There's an extent to which the planners and those involved in making Milton Keynes were trying to solve those problems in a very material way. So it's a bit of a challenge to academics to look at this place and figure out, well, how did it solve those problems? How do we test our ideas about culture and society in relation to this place? Milton Keynes is going to bid to be European capital of culture. And it's very interested in trying to learn from the theorisation of culture and identity and space that has happened in this university. Where we've had world famous scholars of the likes of Stuart Hall, Doreen Massey, who spent careers trying to define, well, what do we mean by culture? What do we mean by place? And try to kind of use that to inform and understand, well, what is it about Milton Keynes' culture? How can you say that Milton Keynes is a capital of culture? So this is the first step towards doing this. And we have an event running on Thursday called Milton Keynes of the Mind. And the reason for that title was to try and draw attention to the fact that a city is never just bricks and mortar. It's about big ideas, big grand designs, grand plans that bring together everything from medieval knowledge to ancient religions to modern neoliberal, thatcherite values. How do you mix those things together in a space? Well, thank you both for giving us an insight into the Milton Keynes of the Mind, but also I think the kind of heart and soul of this place. Thank you very much.

An alert beachgoer captured a shark swimming off Navar beach in Florida's Panhandle. Cell phone video released July 4 showed the telltale fin and outline of the shark as some bathers took notice and headed for the safety of the beach while others remained in the surf. The shark appeared again briefly on the video and then appeared to move on. A rash of US shark attacks have been reported this summer, including in the Northeast. According to the website Tracking Sharks, through early June, at least 16 such attacks were reported in the US, 9 of them in Florida and none that were fatal.

The president's budget proposal eliminates public media funding. Learn how you can help at lptv.org slash action. For many in the community, grabbing a hot meal isn't always so easy. Armelle Meyer shows us how a lunch to benefit the North Country Food Bank helped others in need fill up their bowls. The empty bowls event held at the Bemidji Eagles Club will help raise money for the food bank in Crookston, but the organization's reach spans far beyond the city limits. We serve 21 counties in northwest and west central Minnesota, including Beltrami County. About 18 different organizations in Bemidji alone receive food from the food bank. This is one of our greater need areas of our 21 counties. There is a higher rate of food and security here. With each ticket sold, community members were able to get a hearty soup bowl and a bowl to keep for themselves. Take it home and have a, you know, sort of a reminder of the event or a reminder of hungry people in the community. Some spent a few more dollars for the chance to win an extra one. I love the chillin' with my peeps bowl, hoping for that. But they're all just really pretty, so see which one I can get, hopefully. The food bank gave the bowl supplies to St. Philip's School for the third, fourth and fifth graders to create the designs. While Hannah was happy to help others out, she wasn't quite ready to let go of hers yet. I think I might be going home with my bowl today. There were plenty of others to go around and some had a tough time picking one out. I picked out several bowls, actually, and they had a really nice variety and a lot of different styles. And then I found the one that I thought I really liked the best. For every dollar raised during today's event, the food bank will be able to provide five meals for those in need. In Bemidji, I'm Mal Meyer, Lakeland News. The North Country Food Bank distributed more than seven million pounds of food last year.

Okay. So thank you everyone. So this week we are going to have a discussion, a discussion with Rado. Rado is our DHS2 infrastructure DevOps engineer. They have instances of DHS2 that basically are for development and even our infrastructure. So he's part of the team that supports the same infrastructure and they have interesting setup architecture. So today we want to have him take us through what we have and the technologies that they are using in the infrastructure. And Moses, sorry, Rado, welcome. And that is a quick introduction about him. So he'll just guess if he has anything or slides or what, but he's going to give us a preview introduction of what we have and again, you know, also that we can ask questions if we have any. Yeah, thank you. Welcome, Rado. Thanks, Rito. Hey guys, my name is Rado Ivanov. I'm just one of the DevOps engineers working in the DHS2 development team. And today I did prepare a small presentation for you guys. Hopefully we can have good discussions throughout the presentations and after it. And I guess I'll try to share my screen now. Can you guys see my screen? Yeah, I can see it. Okay, so today I'm going to be talking about the DHS2 infrastructure and more specifically our internal development infrastructure that is used by the development team for testing development, demoing new features and so on. As I said, the DHS2 infrastructure is indeed all the servers, all the services that we administer. And I'm going to also talk about some of the challenges that we've had in the past with the infrastructure and we still do to some extent. And I'm also, excuse me, and I'm also going to talk about some of the latest initiatives that we've been embarking on and in particular this is the push to have most of our infrastructure as code. I also talk about the challenges and new things we have with moving the DHS2 in Docker and running in Kubernetes. So what is our DHS2 infrastructure? As you can see, we have a lot of things that we administer. We have test instances, a lot of demo instances, again, a lot of training instances. Only some of these are public facing so you would be familiar only with probably like play.dhs2.org or maybe demos.dhs2.org. But we do have a lot of service that we use internally for the things that I already mentioned like testing, development, demoing and so on. Other notable services that we administer on our own is App Hub or maybe it's also known as apps. This is apps.dhs2.org where we host all of the DHS2 front end applications both custom and developed by us. We also have an internal Jenkins server that we administer and run on our own infrastructure and by our own I actually mean AWS but it's all internally managed. Other things that you might be familiar with is the releases.dhs.org website where you can download any number of more artifacts of the DHS2 application. Databases.dhs.org where we distribute the Sierra Loan testing database that is kind of widely accepted as the DHS2 testing or development database or at least the most used one. And the documentation of course docsdhs2.org. Some other services that we do use but do not administer ourselves is of course Github. We recently moved from our own hosted Gira to Gira on the cloud so this is now in the hosted services section. We also use browser stack or rather we did use browser stack but I listed it here as it's still there in some places. We do use Netlify for testing front end applications. And the DHS2.org website itself, it's not hosted on our own infrastructure, it's hosted by an external company and we pretty much just provide the content there. So some of the challenges that we've had and still have is mainly the amount of servers and DHS2 instances that we have to keep around for people to be able to test, develop and see the new features that we have been working on. We have servers running on AWS on OpenStack and as well as some physical machines that are hosted on some hosting platform but are physical machines and not cloud platforms. And on these hosting and cloud platforms we have a lot of servers. I've only mentioned play and demos here because these are kind of the most widely known public facing ones but we have about 23 or 25 I think servers that we keep around all spread across AWS and OpenStack as well as the physically hosted ones. And on the screenshot on the right you can see this screenshot of play.dhs2.org. You can see that currently we have what is this 4, 7, 5, that's 12 DHS2 instances running on that server. So you can imagine that we do have a lot of DHS2 instances running on the 25 servers that we keep. It's in the hundreds, maybe nearing 200 at this point. So you can imagine that this is quite challenging to maintain, to keep secure and just to keep running in general because yeah, it's a lot of servers. As I said, the main challenge with running so much instances on the number of servers that we have is the maintenance and particularly like operating system updates, package and software updates that have been provisioned on those servers. Plugging updates. Also, it's a big challenge to have user and policy administration on all these servers basically who can SSH where, who can see what and so on. It's also a challenge to keep tabs on these flakes that is being used when it's going down, when it's actually, when it's actually all full and so on. Same goes about the memory. And of course, with the latest DHS2 versions, we've been kind of changing the development workflow. And now we have some new processes and workflows on that. We would like to enter trying to support. Basically, we are trying to shift toward testing of each pull request instead of testing full features or full releases. This basically means that we want to have a new DHS2 instance running of each pull request that you create so that the people that are supposed to test it can focus on just the given changes there. And it's not requiring a long running server that you have to update constantly. Also, we want to have and actually have some very realistic environments. Compared to some of the implementations of DHS2 across the world, mainly for kind of performance benchmarking, we've been helping a lot of implementations with performance and scalability improvements and issues across the years. We do use a lot of large databases that need a lot of resources to run. So this is a challenge on its own. And for the realistic environments, we also use them for demos and functional testing because sometimes issues do arise when you have a very kind of test dedicated environment. That's not really what's out there. So you can have unexpected results when you actually deploy it somewhere that people actually use it. And recently there has been a big push with metadata packages. A lot of new metadata packages are being developed and released. So this is another challenge that we are working on improving and making better. Before jumping into infrastructure as code, I suppose I can ask if somebody has any questions. If you guys want me to kind of go deeper on any of the things that I've went through. And if not, I'll just continue to infrastructure as code. Okay, I'll take this as a no. So infrastructure as code. Why do we use, and what is the reason that we want to have our infrastructure written as code? One of the main reasons is reproducibility. If your infrastructure is written as code, you can easily recreate it. Either the whole thing, let's say a whole cluster, a whole server, a whole service, like app hub, or just parts of it that you want to update and so on, which minimizes the risk factor. And also the fear of updating can potentially breaking something. It also really helps with scalability. You can create any number of copies easily of the infrastructure models that you have created. For example, you can create a production, a staging, a testing environment that is absolutely the same with just maybe different names or slide changes in configuration. It also helps with having your infrastructure be immutable. So we, everywhere where we have infrastructure as code, we do not do kind of in place updates and upgrades. If something has to be updated, it's usually all destroyed and then brought up from scratch again when there's something that we need to change. And as the saying goes, treat your servers like cattle, not pets. Maybe this is a bit offensive to the servers, but they can take it. And of course consistency. It's very easy to make human errors when you're when you have your infrastructure dependent on some manual interaction basically either clicking around on AWS or maybe running some scripts individually. It's easy to to make a mistake and maybe later it's hard to understand what actually went wrong. So infrastructure as code really helps with consistency and having identical environments. Also version control. You can you already I suppose know the benefits of version controlling your code and the same benefits goes for the infrastructure as code concept, you can go back in time and see what was changed who changed it. Maybe if you want to go back and so on. This makes it much easier. And, yeah, infrastructure is called just in general removes the manual labor of creating things on the cloud or physical servers and kind of minimizes or eliminates user errors. Now, now I want to briefly talk a bit about Docker. I've outlined some very basic Docker best practices and I'll talk about them in a second, but I just wanted to say that we've been pushing toward running the HS to internally exclusively in Docker. And I can't say that we are done at this point we still have work to do, but it's a big journey. So it does take a lot of time and running your application Docker, as you may know, has a lot of benefits, but it's also kind of challenging to get it done right. Yes, Gerald. Did you have a question or just testing your mic. Okay, I'll take this as testing your mic. So, some of the best practices that we, and these are very basic best practices of course the list is non exhaustive. So just Google Docker best practices you'll get a lot more information on the topic. I suppose some or most of you guys are already familiar with this but these are kind of the things that are foundational and we are creating based on that. Very important for us is that we don't run our containers or images as route. So this really improves security and so Gerald is saying that he cannot hear anymore. Can somebody just confirm that they can still hear and it's maybe just Gerald that cannot hear. I can hear you. So, yeah, I can hear you. Okay, sorry, Gerald. I suppose you can watch the recording later. So yeah, we do not run this route anymore. We did run our images. Oh, perfect. Nice. We did run our very old images as route before but it's no longer the case. We're kind of proud of that. We do not run actually we do run our application as process ID one, which basically means that this is the only process that is running within the container and this is kind of a must do for for Docker containers. If you want to have multiple services running in your container then it's maybe better to split it in multiple containers. It's a very good idea to have simple Docker files or in our case we actually no longer have a Docker file at all. We use Jeep. I have provided the link here but I'm not going to open it right now. Jeep is a, I guess, a tool developed by Google. It's mostly Java centric but I think it can be used for other languages as well. But it provides a better way to build images without using the Docker daemon at all. It makes an artifact like the war files, the DHS to war files and basically adds it to a base image. Like the Tomcat base image that we use and this simplifies things by a lot and makes the image much more simple, secure and easy to maintain. And it's also a very good idea to use verified base images. In our case we use a Tomcat base image. So we don't have to worry about securing Tomcat. It's already done by the Tomcat developers on their own. So it's a very nice and easy way to do the right thing basically. And with Jeep now, the latest images that we have been building there, as I said, built with Jeep. This really helps and makes the boot time of DHS to faster. Notably before, DHS 2 in Docker was booting rather slowly and by slowly I mean we're talking about minutes. So this now greatly improved and it's kind of half a minute boot time, which is a big improvement. And also this is something that we can be proud of, I guess. And the Docker images now are a lot more secure, as I said. This is again partly due to using Jeep for building them as well as some changes that we made recently with the sole purpose of just improving the security within the Docker images. Before going into the next topic, which will be Kubernetes, I again want to ask if somebody maybe have any questions right now. They want some clarification or anything. Right on maybe a quick question. Yes. Have you considered not bundling the DHS 2 into the image at all and just running the kind of secure verified Tomcat image and providing the exploded war file as a volume? Because it strikes me that, you know, you make very big images and particularly if you're exploding the war file within it. And if you're running, if you're trying to run, for example, a load sharing environment with multiple Tomcats, my inclination would have been to just provide the war file or the exploded web app as a volume. What is the thinking behind going the way you've gone? Well, I suppose that what you're saying here with the exploded war within a volume, this is kind of, it is a way to go about it, but I suppose it's not the most efficient way. Yes, the images are maybe bigger right now than they would be if we would be providing just a Tomcat image and exploding the war separately. But the idea here is that we just get a DHS image. And if you have Docker, it's very easy to start DHS 2. It's basically about simplicity. And, yeah, it depends on the use cases, of course, as you said, on certain environments where you would be running multiple DHS 2, multiple DHS 2 containers. And there might be better ways to go about it. But maybe you were kind of referring to a Linux container environment where you have multiple, separate, virtualized environments within the same server. No, not really, Radha. I'm just thinking of running a simple Docker environment where you don't put the web app into the image. So you don't have a DHS 2 Docker image as such. You just have a Tomcat image. I understand that it's probably simpler the way it is when you just download your Docker image and run it. I think so, Bob. And I think another kind of point is we want to, we want to recommend an image that we've tested. And I think if we, obviously we could then recommend a specific Tomcat image with the DHS 2 sort of link to that. I think, you know, if we compose this together into a DHS 2 image, then exactly what we've tested is exactly what is in production. So I think there's an element there too, that it's simpler to manage that as well. But I think it's interesting, the solution as well. I was just wondering what the rationale was, whether people considered doing it the other way. But no, good. I understand why it is the way it is. I presume you do explode the war file in the Docker image there. So what you download is... The image has an already exploded war file in there. And basically the explosion or the exploding of the war file does not happen in boot time. So this is one of the reasons why the boot time of DHS 2 is now much faster. Before the way we built images, the war was exploded every time you start the image. So this added some overhead when booting. It just made things a bit slower. So now we have a pre-exploded war basically within the image. Yeah, there's also good security reasons for doing that as well. Yeah. Sorry, it didn't mean to interrupt your flow. No, of course. I just felt like I'm going maybe a bit too fast through the slides. Okay. So Kubernetes, why do we even want to go there? Why do we want to use Kubernetes at all? As I said in the previous slides, we do have a lot of servers and a lot of DHS2 instances running. So this is kind of a natural decision to go there because Kubernetes is kind of the go to orchestration platform for containers. And you get a lot of stuff for free once you get going. Of course, there's no free lunch, but maybe it's a cheap lunch. It takes some time to properly create your infrastructure to run Kubernetes and it just takes a bit of time to learn the management things that are behind it. But once you go there, it's pretty much very easy from that point on. And you do get a lot of stuff for free. Notably, you'll get like load balancing, proxying can ingress management for free, which you don't even have to think about as a developer. We as the DevOps engineers are the ones that take care of this and the DHS2 developers can pretty much just deploy their applications, DHS2 applications and not have to worry about any of this. Of course, with ingress management, you also get SSL termination and Yes, and also scalability, both horizontal and vertical scalability is possible, maybe vertical is a bit more limited, but horizontal scalability is what you really is one of the kind of the main selling points of Kubernetes. It's really easy to scale your container applications. It's very easy to handle more traffic and so on. And if you have the proper configuration setup, this pretty much happens automatically. You don't have to do anything. If you have more demand, then you get more applications running, more servers running and so on. So this really helps with the current number of servers that you have. As I said in the beginning, we are somewhere in the hundreds of DHS2 instances and some of these are running all the time, even though they don't have to. So within Kubernetes, this is very basic problem to solve with automatic scalability. You just, as I said, you get as much as you need pretty much. And you also get a lot of packages for pre-made software for free. And like you can very easily install logging packages like the Elk stack, Grafana stack and so on. This also goes for metrics. These two stacks that I mentioned also provide metrics, tracing and so on. Pretty much you can easily install anything else that you might meet within your Kubernetes cluster besides the main application of interest, which in this case is DHS2. And if you do it, it's also easier to have your infrastructures called pretty much everything in Kubernetes is a YAML file. So it's a lot easier to manage and I did skip to the next slide and gave you a sneak peek. But yes, there is a lot of complexity with Kubernetes. But maybe the reputation kind of precedes the reality. And the reality is that with a couple of tutorials and some workshops and just some extra time, it's really easy to get started and get you along with. So it's not as serious, it's not as hard as people say. Yes, it is hard, but it's also hard to run without Kubernetes. The number of servers that we currently have, it's unimaginably hard to manage, let alone by just a few people. And it's kind of really easy to not notice issues in time and so on. So clusters are indeed complicated, but it's a lot more complicated running a big infrastructure as our home without Kubernetes. So as I said, it was kind of a natural decision for us to go there with the whole push to run DHS2 in Docker. And yeah, this is what I have prepared for you today, guys. I suppose now it's a Q&A time. So hopefully this was somewhat useful for you, maybe really useful. If you have any questions, you can either ask now or reach out to any of us later, either in the community of practice or in the development slack. Okay, I'll take you back to the Docker images and stuff. So I would like to know if you just build your own images or you start from a template like Tomcat image and then you build your own custom images and then where are you posting those images? So yeah, we do use a verified base image and we use the Tomcat verified image. So currently I think we promote Tomcat 9.0 as the main stable version, but we do also have 8.9 that we built. Yeah, and as I said with GIP, which is the build tool that we're using, we don't even have to build the image with the Docker daemon. I don't want to go into too much details, but basically how it works, you get the base image, the Tomcat base image and you add an extra layer with the DHS2 war within it and you're good to go. So this is how we build the images and we host our images on Docker Hub. You can find them on, I think the username is DHS and we have both core and core depth repositories, which I suppose the name reveals what they are. So yeah. Thank you. Another one is with Kubernetes. Do you, for instance, have two applications say demo, you have two instances of demo and how is load balancing handle, are they going, are the two applications going to write the same database? No, so we, right now we use basically single instance deployments within Kubernetes, they're not load balanced so every DHS2 instance has its own database. We do have it as a plan in the future, but I mean, it's not really a very common use case where you have load balanced DHS2 instances using the same database. So this is not our main focus right now, but it is something that we would like to explore and develop more in the future. I was going to ask a little bit around that as well. First of all, thanks for the presentation and I know you give a very short notice. Thanks for inviting me. Now, when I think about your primary challenge, and it's really to do with, you know, running hundreds of instances, so it's quite complex operation. But you are less concerned, I guess, about the data. I mean, data is, because they're mainly for demo purposes or for testing purposes and the like. I mean, compared to probably many of the people on this call, they will have less instances typically. I mean, a typical national setup, you might be talking about three to 10 different DHS2 instances. But in most of the production case, I guess it's the database side of it, which is much more critical in lots of ways. Is it on the database side that we tend to find most of the performance issues, but also it's the database which contains the assets which need to be protected and the like. Can you tell us a little bit more about what you're doing on the database side? Have you done any performance scaling work in terms of, you know, database replication and load sharing on the database side? So, to start from the back, database replication and load sharing, this is not something that we have explored, at least to my knowledge. Maybe if you can correct me if I'm wrong. But yes, it's, you're very right that usually implementations are very data heavy and the databases there are very big compared to our internal usage of DHS2 where databases are smaller. We have pretty much the Sierra Leone database, some other specific databases related to HMIS, LMIS and so on. But indeed our internal struggles are so much different to the implementations out there, still with the performance. Sorry, I couldn't hear you very well. Okay, maybe this was just a mic check. So yeah, as I was saying with the performance databases that we are using for testing, we are kind of trying to mimic the real implementations right there, right that are out there. But of course, it's not a one-to-one comparison because even though we do have very large performance databases, some of the implementations out there are much larger and it's actually hard to get realistic data. Given that this health information system, it's also not easy to just ask implementations to provide their database, even if it's anonymized and so on, it's still a challenge. So, I think, I think I can compliment that, I read what you're saying in terms of answering Bob. I think one point is we're still quite early in the transition to Kubernetes, right. So, although we've been doing some of those things kind of manually or in our previous setups, we're trying to get the sort of Kubernetes setup right first before we start expanding on the different sort of configurations that we can support. But I think we will want to support those sort of configurations if not only for testing and exploring those areas and improving and optimizing our own guidelines for these kind of use cases. And indeed, I mean, maybe it wasn't really clear from my presentations, but as Phil said, we are kind of early into going into Kubernetes, even though we have a lot of things available and usable right now, it's nowhere near complete. We still have a lot of things to explore and figure out. And as Phil said, our main first goal was to just serve the internal development needs that we have. And then we can kind of look further both into performance testing, database development and so on. So I don't know if this really answered your question, Bob. Yeah, I know it does. I was interested, I think what I got from what Phil was saying as well. The intention is that the performance testing stuff, some of what I know Gintari set up on sort of separate machines. The hope would be that that will also come under the umbrella eventually as part of the kind of Kubernetes infrastructures code setup. Yeah, indeed. And, you know, I said that most of the national implementations wouldn't be at the scale in terms of number of DHS2 instances, but there are in fact quite a few actors who run a lot. I do not see anyone from Hisp, South Africa on but I know they probably run in the hundreds of instances. I see Dajo was here from Hisp, Western Central Africa, they don't directly run many instances, I don't think, but they certainly assist with quite a number of countries running a number of instances. So, yeah, this question of how to manage many DHS2 instances, it's not irrelevant for country implementations at all. No wonder it has at least 12, maybe more. Yeah, I mean probably Kubernetes is a bit of a stretch for even the kind of the implementations that run a lot of instances, but for internal, for our internal usage, it just made sense. But nonetheless, just running DHS2 in Docker, maybe through Docker Compose because at that point in time Docker Compose is even recommended for production. I think this is a very decent and scalable way to run multiple DHS2 instances in a very controlled manner. What about the security management of Docker images? This has been always my reluctance in a way. I mean in your case, for example, most of those instances are quite ephemeral, they don't last long, they're cattle as you say. For long running instances, you have to have a mechanism to ensure that your Docker image is secure and remains secure in terms of things like operating system updates, Java updates or things like that that might come along. What's your strategy of dealing with Docker security in that sense? So I guess our strategy is just following the best practices, not running the images through, running just one process within the image. And since we started building our images with GIP, I think they're much more secure than they used to be. At this point, as I said, we are just using a verified Tomcat image, which is tested a lot by the Tomcat development team. So I think we can... But if there's a security release on the base image, for example, there's some major flaw in Tomcat and then Tomcat produces a new image tomorrow. Do we have a process around that? We don't really have a process with automated process about that right now, but it's still kind of... We do keep an eye on those base images that we use or if there's some big security issue, we would know about it. And we would basically just build new images based on the new image that Tomcat releases. But some of the challenges, security challenges that you said, like keeping the operating system and so on updated, these are still challenges regardless of whether you run the HOS in Docker or just as a standalone war file. You still have to kind of secure your own infrastructure, the service where you're running them. So this doesn't really change too much of what you have to do with hardening your own infrastructure where you're running the HOS too. But it does provide kind of a layer of security for the HOS to itself. And Gerald had two questions. I'll first go to Gerald. He's asking Kyrie building the HOS to work on Kubernetes. Yeah, we are building the HOS to Docker images to run both in Kubernetes or in Docker compose whatever orchestration tool that you want to use. I think it's pretty much the same. The images are usable anywhere that you can run Docker on. And he's also asking whether during deployment the pods are the pods restricted to use specific IPs because he sees that as a challenge. And no, I don't think we use any static IPs for the pods. They pretty much get a new bot internal private IP and public IP for each new bot that is run. So the IPs are basically recycled. And Chinsang is asking, what do you say is the best way to scale a DHS instance vertically or horizontally? Well, depends on whether we are talking about running DHS to Docker or outside of Docker. If we're talking about DHS running inside Docker vertically, of course, you just have to have a bigger machine. If you, if you're talking about running within Kubernetes, then there's this thing called the vertical pod autoscaler, which can depending on conditions that you care about like traffic and so on. Resource usage, you can increase the size of the notes that run the DHS to pods. So this also happens automatically. Same goes for horizontally, which is even easier. Of course, as I said, in the context of DHS to we do not currently load balance multiple DHS instances to use the same database or horizontal kind of scaling is. It's not something that we are doing right now. Maybe we will start doing it in the future. And if you're talking about scaling outside of Docker, then again, it's, I suppose the best way is just to get a bigger server, which does sound easy in words, but can be challenging in practice, I suppose, especially if you're talking about country implementations. You can have a fixed number of services and so on. Sorry, what if you're running a cluster of servers and say you have two servers right now, and in future you want to add another one to the cluster. How is that going to help in scaling? Is it going to be practical? So right now, we are using automated automatic cluster scaling. So the number of nodes or servers that we have within the cluster depends on the kind of the demand. So if there is no demand at all, and we are just running kind of the core services that keep the cluster going, we usually have one or two servers running at any time. And if there's more demand, if there's more demand, it kind of goes to three, four, five, again, depending on the demand. But this happens automatically and we don't really have to think about it. And this is how to scale. Sorry, how do you monitor the demand patterns? We don't really monitor the demand patterns. We just kind of leave the cluster out to scale to do its own thing. We don't have to worry too much about the patterns because it happens automatically. We are still early in the Kubernetes usage, as I said. So with increased developer, with more people, more developers using the Kubernetes cluster and DHS to in Docker. Internally, we are probably going to start looking into usage patterns and have some way to deal with it. But at this point, it's not something that we have to really worry about. I think BAO have got quite a bit of experience with horizontal scaling. And one of our plans, one of the weeks ahead, we're going to invite someone from BAO to tell us a little bit about how their experience has been. So that will be interesting. Yeah, that would indeed be very interesting. I think BAO have a lot of relevant experience with managing and running DHS to as a service for people. So they do have a lot of knowledge that they run in the community, including the developers. We definitely plan to get them on here in one of the coming weeks. Yeah. Good. Okay, Moses has a question. Where do we see DHS to in the next 10 years? I see it's becoming versatile like self-abating caps like Android and iOS. I don't think I'm the best person to talk about DHS to in the next 10 years. Maybe if you can talk a bit more about the future roadmap. But yeah, indeed, the future is bright for DHS to for sure. Yeah, no, it's a really good question. There are elements where we are trying to make it easier and easier to be able to update DHS to or components of DHS to. I think most of you guys are probably aware of the shift over the last couple of years towards continuous delivery apps as we call it, so that apps can be updated independently. There are some kind of designs over the next years to give more flexibility in the sort of backend architecture to make it even easier to kind of extend things in a similar way and to update things in a similar way in the backend. So I think we're definitely moving in that, you know, that direction of the versatility. But there's a balance, right, in terms of making things remain robust and secure as well. So yeah, I think the other thing that we are likely to see is the breaking down of the application into more of a micro service architecture. DHS do has been this large monolithic application for some time. And I know, for example, lead architects like Austin are actively looking at ways of breaking down the application into more separate services, which of course will add to the complexity, which is why it's really important that we learn from experiences like you guys are going through. Because we'll, we'll find DHS to becoming a much more flexible application but equally a more complex application to manage as my crystal ball gazing for the day. Yeah. So Moses also asking why is development mobile, why is mobile app development concentrated on Android and stopped on iOS. Yeah. Yeah, I think you know the main user base is with Android in terms of mobile. And that's one of the reasons why the primary focus is there. And there have been, you know, some support of sort of progressive web applications which means that things work on mobile devices from the web as well so that I think it's considered that that will provide some of the support for other mobile devices but I think it's still considered that the, you know, the primary use cases is Android that that's the availability of devices in the field. As far as we're aware, in most cases. I don't know whether Bob can comment on that. I think you said it all feel I mean the interesting thing about Apple iPhones and is that senior people in government tend to have. Certainly the case I know in Asia people tend to like place like Vietnam. Everybody above a certain age pay grade will be on on on Apple and everybody below that pay grade will be on Android. And so sometimes the call the call for iOS support from from East Asia is quite strong. But yeah, I think the footprint of Android generally in our world is much, much larger. Yeah, that's currently at least I could change. Yeah, probably not going to change but it's also asking do we sorry Bob. Was this also asking, do we expect DHS to web application becoming full time offline like on capture up, but on the web. I, you know, I think we've been trying to increase the support, the offline support in different apps. So I think that will continue to improve. Yeah, so, you know, it will always require a connection, or eventually, in order to kind of send in the data and get back data but definitely we've been trying to to increase the offline support. Because we know that's a really important factor in a lot of implementations in the field. Yeah, thank you. Thank you too for the questions Moses I think they were very helpful. So it's at the top of the hour. Thank you for the session. Thanks a lot for inviting me guys I was a pleasure talking to you and hopefully the presentations and the Q&A that you just had had some good insight and I was helpful to you. So, yeah, as I said, if you do have any other questions, please reach out to us and we'll try to help. Thanks for what we're hoping to do next week is talk a little bit about about troubleshooting and monitoring with with Glowroot. So if anybody's interested in that currently that's what we're thinking we will have the talk for next week sounds good. Thank you. And at that point. Thanks everyone. Thanks to you. Thanks. Thanks everyone. Thanks everyone. Bye bye.

And so when I think of things that Gene and I have done, the reintroduction of grasses, we planted a lot of trees, you know, I hope someday that someone will walk across our past and say, this is really neat, and I don't even care if they know my name, I just want them to enjoy what nature is really about. You're only given land so much, you know, we're here on earth such a short while and to leave it better than what we found it is important. My wife, Gene and I live on top of the Cato Hills in northeastern South Dakota, it's a ridge of hills about 200 miles long and 100 miles wide, also known as the Glacial Lakes area or the Prairie Pot Hill region. We have five children, eleven grandchildren who are still very active part of the family farm even though they are away at different jobs at the moment. I think what set us on our path or our journey of soil health is I saw the rainfall simulator, in fact I had to see it several times before it really sunk in. What was happening underneath our soil and how important it was. We decided to start rotating our pastures. We are in a partnership with Fish and Wildlife, they supplied materials for us. Way back in 1989, when I first started at Wabay National Wildlife Refuge, we worked with Dennis and Gene restoring wetlands on their CRP Conservation Reserve program land. We divided our pastures up into several small paddocks. Restored a number of wetlands in their CRP and pasture lands. And so by using Fish and Wildlife and NRCS and different opportunities to help us cross fence, that really has helped economically, helped take some of that stress off. We found out that the major part of grazing that's really important and it's really familiar is rest, rotate and recovery. That's how easy rotating pastures are. We've increased our carrying capacity, it's increased our weaning weights, our breed back, we have less sickness and that really does make a difference. We have reintroduced a lot of native grasses into our pastures. We just interceded into some of our cool season grasses. Didn't see the result right away but took about two to three years before we saw the benefits of that. So this is August 24th and we did have a wet spring, we had a wet last fall. And in June the rain stopped and we've had very little rain this summer. You can just tell by the root system of these native plants how they can withstand and draw it a little bit easier than having a small cool season grass out here. Now these areas are in grass, tremendous change for wildlife. Water quality, the water filters through the grass into the wetland and then down into the lake and a lot of the nutrients are trapped and stored up here in wetlands and uplands and keeps the lakes cleaner. We live in a unique area with lots of water, there's 30 lakes within 30 miles of here and hundreds of ponds. And we first started rotational grazing, one of the things that we had done is we thought we could use those ponds for watering. And we soon found out that as especially late summer those cattle were going out further and further into the ponds to get water and coming back and dragging mud and we were destroying the wetlands. And that's when we really got involved in, with ECRIP programs, getting fresh water to our pastures. We have water tanks, we even put up a solar well, which has worked really well. And I think fresh water is just a very important part of any rotation. A couple years ago we started using cover crops and the things that the cover crops have done for us is generally we come in with the forage oats or forage barley and we usually can get that off first or second week in July and we come right back in with a cover crop with the intention of grazing it. What the cover crops have done for us with our rangeland is we're able to pull the cattle off the pastures a little sooner and give them a rest before winter hits. It's also great for the biology of the soil. You get the hoof action along with cover crops and all the manure out there. We have really seen a difference in our yields the following year and it has given us a longer grazing season. We keep something growing longer, especially we use rye quite often and we get some grazing in the fall. And then in the spring as we cab we try and move the pears off as quick as we can or get them away from the rest of the herd and we can throw them out in that rye field which gives us more hoof action and just healthier for the calves. It's just a nice place to be able to throw them. Then we'll terminate the rye and come in with the soybean crop and it's something that's really helped us extend our feed and at the same time benefit for the soil. Conservation isn't always cheap, people think that and it's very true sometimes. You have to put forth some effort but there's programs with NRCS conservation district, there's official wildlife, there's places where you can get help to offset that and then the benefits show up later economically with higher weaning weights, stronger calves, better ground your land is better. When I think of conservation one of the biggest things that I learned was given to me by a man who never said a thing. In his 70s he came back here and started planting trees and I thought why is he planting trees, he's in his 70s, he's not going to be able to enjoy it and my thinking was really wrong because he enjoyed doing it, guess who's enjoying it today? I am, my kids are, my grandkids are. Life now is moving faster than it ever has before it seems like but let's leave this the better place and we can still farm and do that.

Hey, what's up guys, it's Coach Ben. I'm back with another video. In today's video I'm gonna be talking about the importance of having systems set up in your business and This is one of the most important aspects about how we run our academy here And this is kind of I think the biggest difference maker between us and a lot of people out there who try to compete with us Or they try to model what we do and they just can't really figure it out And I really want you to Copy and paste what I'm about to tell you because I think this would be the biggest difference maker in your private Training Academy, so I'm gonna kind of rewind a little bit and go back to when I first started training players And that was back in 2009 and when I started training players I Didn't know how to run a business and that's What the majority of people who started business, they don't know what they're doing. They they don't have any experience They maybe haven't talked to any mentors. I mean I was literally just out of college. I Didn't know anything about how to collect money how to charge people How to manage my time? I mean I was kind of all over the place All I had really was the passion to help players get better, which is needed if you don't have that You should probably turn this video off Because I won't be able to help anyone unless they have that first and foremost, but I had the passion but I didn't understand how to run a business and That's gonna be very critical for you if you want to do this long term you have to understand the business side and that's really Why I'm here I want to help trainers with that side of their their company is help with the business help Manage and structure everything from A to Z this way It's so easy you can look forward to going to train players and you can grow everything Over the course of time But I didn't have a clue about what I was doing. So I want you to know that before you, you know Listen on to the rest of this video. I didn't know what I was doing It took me a lot of time and it took a lot of going through a lot of failure to figure out How I needed to set things up in the future so really what happened was at the beginning I Wasn't charging anyone everything was free I wanted to do that because I wanted to get good experience and I also didn't have confidence asking people for money which is actually a really difficult thing to do and So at the beginning everything was free. I wasn't charging anyone. I was just getting a lot of experience I wanted to get great results with the kids who were committed to me So I would do that and eventually I started charging $15 per session and I remember at the time My sessions were an hour and a half. So there were 90 minutes. I was charging 15 bucks And I started to get a lot of people that were coming in at the $15 per session range And what happened with the problem was is I had a lot of people who wanted to pay per session and this is What this was kind of the beginning of my downfall at the beginning is I had a lot of people who wanted to do that So what happened was a lot of people didn't show up to my sessions. They weren't paying They would pay me either after the session or maybe at the end of the month. I was very nice and lenient with how people paid me and worst of all everybody paying by cash or check and I'm gonna explain towards the end of the video why you never want to do that if you want to do this like a serious business and so as that was happening I kept getting a lot of people who wanted to to train with me and I mean it was awesome, but a lot of people weren't paying and it's really hard to go into a session With your mind thinking about someone owes you money and you want to train their kid But you want to try to do a good job you want to make them happy but you can't run a business that way and That's when I started to realize like I better get my stuff together or else There's gonna be so many people. They're gonna take advantage of me and that's the thing that a lot of trainers Really they don't Think about that went before they start They just kind of go through it and either they let it continue to happen or they make a big change and that's what I did I made a massive change. I remember I went to a conference in California that that really like walk through Business and how to manage everything if you are a personal trainer or a private trainer And once I came back I made all the changes So the first thing that I did is I raised my prices I think to like $30 and I shortened my sessions to An hour instead of 90 minutes And the second thing I did was I never accepted anyone who wanted to pay by cash or pay by check and the reason why is because I wanted to create a System in place to where if I can get someone to pay one time They will just automatically be billed 30 days later and I'm not gonna have to ask them to go do it it's just gonna be run by a system online and The system that I recommend Is called PayPal. I personally use something called Sam cart You can go look at that below if you already have a lot of players at your training I would recommend Sam cart over PayPal. I mean there's a million reasons why but if you're just starting I would do PayPal It's free It's great for getting recurring payments and the reason why you want to have that though is because Let's say you train someone for You know a month and they bring money every single time they're training you Let's say they skip a session. Well right there. You just missed out on them paying you Or let's say, you know, they Come to three sessions and they say they're gonna pay you on the fourth one And they just don't show up and they disappear and that stuff started happening to me There's actually people who pry owe me over thousands of dollars Because I had it set up too nice. I was too lenient And that is something that you have to have set up and I would rather you have that set up at the beginning before you even start training players Before you run into that problem because when you run in that problem it gets very dicey and it's gonna kind of plan a seed in your head that You're not valuable that people are taking advantage of you and I would rather you just not have to go through that Don't go through the same mistake I went through and so instead of that set up a system and set it up Recurring so on PayPal you can do that And it's kind of the same model as how gyms are run So when you go to a gym, you'll give them your credit card or your debit card and 30 days later You're automatically be billed this way You are accepting people into your academy who are committed and you can weed out people who will never do that This way you never have to worry about people make making a payment or not making payment once they make it 30 days later it goes out again and the other thing that I did is I started having people Trained on minimum contracts this way. I know that someone is going to be committed for at least 90 days and a lot of people out there a lot of trainers Will never do that. They'll let people come come in come out whenever they want And I don't like that because if someone's not committed first off, they're not going to see results and second You're gonna be guessing when they're coming. You're not gonna have a set schedule with them And that is something that I know bugs a lot of trainers out there, but they don't step up and take action They don't treat this like a business They let people just kind of float in float out whenever they want and when you have things set up that way You are destined to fail and that's why I want to create this video because if you don't have the systems in place It's gonna be very difficult to do this long term if you're just looking to do this as a part-time thing And maybe you are in college or you're looking to have something part-time on the side You know, that's you can do that But if you want to be more efficient and you want to be more profitable with your time You need to have a system in place. So that's it for today guys. I want you to really implement that I don't want you to think about this. I mean every successful trainer. I know they all we all have same systems in place I've never met a successful trainer out there who is Running their academy by cash or checks everything there. There's there's too much guesswork They they never know when people are coming And it's very easy to accept people who are not committed when you have it up that way And I would rather you only train people who are super committed to you because they're gonna get the best results All right, that's it for today guys Thanks for checking in and if you liked this video make sure and click the thumbs up button That helps me a lot and grow my message to help more trainers and comment below if you have any questions About today's video or anything else if you're starting your academy Comment below.

Hello friends, I am Sanju Benike, working as assistant professor in mechanical engineering department at Walton Institute of Technology, Sulapur. In this video, I am explaining the design of rolling-contact bearing subjected to cyclic load. At the end of the session, learners will be able to calculate dynamic load capacity of the bearing which is subjected to cyclic load. So friends, think about what is cyclic load? In certain applications, ball and roller bearings are subjected to cyclic loads and speeds. For example, if you consider a ball bearing subjected to a work cycle which consists of number of elements like 1, 2, 3, in which in first element it is subjected to a load of 2000 Newton and is rotating at 750 rpm and this is the condition of loading for 25% of the cycle time. The next, the radial load changes to 4000 Newton, the speed also varies to 600 rpm and this remains for next 50% of time of a cycle. And third, there is a radial load of 1000 Newton when the bearing is rotating at 1000 rpm for the remaining 25% of the time. That means we consider one work cycle consisting of three elements during which for a particular point of time the bearing is subjected to different loads. And this particular thing is called as a cyclic load or a cycle consisting of three elements of loads as shown over here. Under these circumstances, it becomes very necessary to consider the complete work cycle while finding out a single dynamic load capacity of the bearing. So for that purpose, we have to calculate what is known as equivalent dynamic load. So let us consider an example of a ball bearing subjected to a work cycle consisting of certain x elements as shown over here. Element 1, the load acting is P1 as a radial force and under this load the bearing completes some N1 revolutions. Similarly, in second element it is P2 load acting on the bearing and under such load it completes certain N2 revolutions. Likewise, we can define the x elements subjected to Px load completing some Nx revolutions. So this is the way one work cycle is consisting of x elements having the different force components and number of revolutions they complete. Under such loading condition. So now if I consider a load P1 only, I know that corresponding to this load P1 the bearing will complete some L1 revolutions. So that there is a relationship between load and life such as L1 is c by P1 raised to cube as it is a ball bearing into 10 raised to 6 revolutions. So if I consider just the load P1 the bearing is subjected to then I can get relationship between the life dynamic capacity and the load applied as L1 is equal to c by P1 raised to cube 10 raised to 6 revolutions. So but actually in this case as a cyclic load the bearing is not completing all L1 revolutions it is completing only N1 revolutions. So first I calculate one revolution the life consumed will be 1 by L1 and correspondingly the other side that the load this side is 1 upon this. So that gives P1 upon c cube into 1 by 10 raised to 6 so it is equivalent. So in one revolution the life consumed is 1 by L1 or it can be considered as P1 cube by c cube into 1 by 10 raised to 6. So the first element if I just consider there are N1 revolutions actually the bearing is completing and that is why I consider that the life consumed by first element totally is N1 into P1 cube upon 10 raised to 6 into c raised to cube. So this is the way first element effect is there when the load P1 is acting on that and it is completing some N1 revolutions. So this relationship I can get. Similarly I consider the other elements for example second element it will be N2 P2 cube upon 10 raised to 6 series to cube. So this is the way I cover all x elements and I get summative effect that total life of that particular work cycle bearing is going to complete is something N1 P1 cube upon this N2 P2 cube plus so on Nx Px cube upon 10 raised to 6 c cube. So this gives the life consumed by all the elements in a particular work cycle. Now if I think of that instead of taking all these P1 P2 x life I consider the single load equivalent PE then it is going to complete some N cycles of the life and that is why the relationship in the same way I can get as NPE cube upon 10 raised to 6 c cube where this N is a total life is nothing but the life of all these revolutions together taken as a summation. So total N is N1 plus N2 plus Nx. So I got two equations A and B over here established. So equating these A and B equations what I get it N1 P1 cube plus N2 P2 cube plus so on and that must be equal to NPE cube where PE is an equivalent load acting on the bearing. N is a total life of the bearing under this single value of equivalent load whereas actually this equivalence is obtained for actual conditions of cyclic load that is N1 P1 cube plus N2 P2 cube plus Nx Px cube denominator being same 10 raised to 6 c cube has been cancelled over here. So with this what we get is equivalent load is equal to cube root of this N1 P1 cube plus N2 P2 cube plus so on divided by N1 plus N2 actually this N1 plus N2 is N here and we know that N is nothing but N1 plus N2 plus N3 and so on. So one can get this equation as equivalent load PE cube root of summation of Np cube divided by summation of N so N is life here is individual N1 P1 cube etc. So this is the way one can calculate the equivalent load for ball bearing which is subjected to actually cyclic load having different elements of load P1 P2 P3 etc. So this is the way first we have to convert a given cyclic load into some equivalent load called as a P and that is called as equivalent dynamic load when the ball bearing is subjected to cyclic load. Now by using this equivalent load further we can calculate a dynamic load capacity of the bearing. So once again to calculate the dynamic load capacity of the bearing we have got life relationship as L10 is equal to C by PE raised to cube and this is what expected life of the bearing in million revolutions. C is a required dynamic capacity of bearing which we want to select bearing from manufacturer's catalog so we want to get some dynamic load capacity required by the bearing known. So this C for cyclic loading condition of a bearing is obtained with the help of equivalent load P and we just see that how to calculate P as an equivalent load. We have seen it previously as a derived equation. By knowing this equation we can get the dynamic capacity of the bearing required C as a value P into L10 where L10 is a desirable life in million revolutions raised to 1 by 3. This is a case of ball bearing if would have been a roller bearing this could have been 3 by 10 so it has 1 by 3 that will be 3 by 10. So by substituting that we can just convert the same as a roller bearing in case of cyclic load acting on roller bearing. So this is the way we calculate the load acting on the bearing as equivalent load due to cyclic load and we convert that into required dynamic load capacity. So that this will help to select a bearing from manufacturer's catalog. So this is the reference. Thank you.

AI in manufacturing: Red Hat and Intel build a foundation for production-ready AI/ML environments
|
Digital transformation for manufacturing is not a desire anymore but a necessity. A clear path to digital transformation in manufacturing is knowing how organizations can manage data at a different layer of a factory's infrastructure. Industry leaders understand the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to create better business outcomes.
In this session, we'll share how Intel and Red Hat have been building AI/ML-ready solutions, such as the leading open hybrid cloud platform powered by containers, Kubernetes, DevOps, purpose-built AI processors and accelerators, software tools (e.g., GETi, OpenVino), and a broad ecosystem of partner technologies to help organizations build a solid foundation for production-ready AI/ML environments, as well as AI cloud services and training for rapid adoption.

afternoon. I hope everyone has had a great day. We're getting towards the end of the day so I'm sure we're on information overload which is part of the reason why for this team for this particular session we decided to change it up a bit instead of talking at you, having more of a panel and a discussion so that way it could be a little bit more lively than a single person up here probably be talking. So I've got two of my my partners and colleagues that are going to come up and speak so I'll introduce Lindy first because she's ready. Lindy sprinted a hundred yards. Yes, yeah from the Edge booth all the way here. So Lindy would you like to introduce yourself to the group? Absolutely. Good afternoon everyone I'm Lindy Sabloff on the COO of guys AI. Guys is focused exclusively on the Far Edge and we're gonna get into it a little bit why we feel that that is so critical but we're solving real-world problems for enterprises and we're doing it in a way that is a more efficient system that is more effective and it's so beneficial for organizations. Excellent and then Darren, Darren would you like to introduce yourself to the group? Sure. Hi my name is Darren Blue I work in for the Intel Corporation and our Network and Edge Group specifically in the Federal Industrial Solutions Division. We focus on manufacturing and energy as well as some federal applications so what we'll be talking about today is when we focus on we talk about the Edge we talk about all the way down to the machine like Lindy's talked about here a little bit and where AI plays in the control and the data plane and how all that comes together and how that's actually gonna move towards the future with we've all heard of an industrial 4.0 and the digital transformation that's happening in manufacturing. Awesome so I'll start with you first Lindy with a couple of questions that we have so when you're working with manufacturing customers what do you see some of the biggest challenges that they have? There are a number of challenges with manufacturing and I think it's funny to think of a large manufacturing plant as being a resource constrained environment but it really is and it can be resource constrained in a number of ways one you can have bandwidth issues two you can have network outages or three you have to be much more cost efficient and you can't do that by sending all your data to the cloud the better way to do it is by doing inferencing at the edge where data is actually created. And then Darren I know that you've spent we've talked a lot about this you spent a number of years looking at the challenges that manufacturers have so when you think about kind of how they're using AI into their factories what problems do you see that solving? Yeah so specifically in North America and Europe there's a labor shortage that they have difficulty keeping workers so AI bringing AI in and trying to replicate some of the knowledge where they've had workers that have been in jobs for 30 plus years and they can't find someone to replace that trying to extract some of that knowledge into an AI model is very important trying to not even be able to hire someone to do say an inspection so Lindy has an inspection use case that she's showing over in her booth and some of those kind of things as well as just being able to make things run more efficiently and then with the pandemic that happened they put things together with bailing twine and duct tape and now they want to put some kind of enterprise solution in place because they you know they realize hey this was a better way to do it how now do I take that to the next level and make it more permanent. Yeah I couldn't agree more about you know the issue of attrition in the workforce and while AI isn't you know directly replacing people I think the way we think about it is we're empowering field engineers right and that AI can be the Iron Man exoskeleton that allows them to do five to ten jobs rather than just their one and then have a huge gap. We see a lot of that as well with a lot of the automation that we're starting to put in place and many of the manufacturers so it definitely gets to the skill challenges the talent shortage that they may be having. I'm really curious on how you see and I'll point this at you. Absolutely. So with the AI space I think in the past we've seen a lot of kind of bolt on solutions that are providing kind of data into manufacturing establishments but now we're starting to see where AI may be starting to interact with the control systems or in the actual loop and so I'm curious if you can kind of share what you're seeing from Intel's perspective on what the manufacturers are doing there. Well and let me tie this into the demo a little bit that we have and we're showing with Kelly and her team so the if you look at the control systems that have been in place for and worked very well for long term they weren't really necessarily built with the instantiation of AI in the future they weren't necessarily built as data systems so when you start thinking about data and the IT types of solutions you've got to come up with an infrastructure that can handle and flow that data and at the same time as you start adding these devices in and the factories get bigger there's more and more devices you've got to find a way to integrate those things and manage those things so that virtualization technology that data flow those containers being able to put all those together and then have more remote manageability more remote lifecycle management is what's coming into play as this whole transformation is beginning to happen where it's going to it's going to be a some time till this happens obviously because the manufacturers are not going to replace it till they you know see the benefit and need to do it but that's what's kind of happening that's what we're showcasing in the the demo and that's what's the value prop that's going to happen over time as people start making that transition they start seeing what the art of the possible is with AI and then want to feed that back into their control type solutions I think that's really interesting so I know like Lindy your team is predominantly focused in the computer vision space but I know that from discussions that we've had you're starting to see just like the natural interaction of just AI in connection with even computer vision and the data coming from control systems so how is guys kind of preparing for these changes that are coming to manufacturing that's a great question I think we need to take a little bit of a step back I think they're still unfortunately is this persistent notion that AI models are large that they're cumbersome and that they're expensive and I think really when we need to start talking about the edge there are a couple things we need to get across one you can have these incredibly powerful but lightweight algorithms right I like to joke around it's it's Robin Williams genie in the 90s version of Aladdin where he pops out of the lamp and he goes phenomenal cosmic power living space and that's really how we have to start thinking about you know edge enabled AI and that these models are available and they are pardon the overuse of the term transformational but they really are transformational and I think from an adoption standpoint it's going to help really start accelerating adoption to be able to have you know these different algorithms for specific use cases that can run on you know very lightweight but you know small compute it is absolutely critical and especially you know I warn the reasons we've partnered with Intel you know is the ability to optimize on open Vino right and that you know when you're doing quantization you can drastically increase the FPS and then you're lowering you know the memory consumption and so it makes it so these models can run can run on small compute and can run very efficiently but the other thing I think to think about an edge is not just how AI has shifted to fit manufacturing to you know to fit energy and to fit you know other industries it's also to say that you know it's about scalability right and by having lightweight models it is more scalable but lightweight models that are agnostic and can run on different devices and also take input from all you know the proliferation of IOT sensors that are out there I'll stop it yeah actually I would love Darren for you to kind of chime in on this because I know we've spent a lot of time talking about embedded system developers and how different they are there's actually some of them in the audience because I know some of them the way that they operate is a little bit different in the way they think about how to build the applications or even the AI models will be different so I'm really curious for you to kind of share what Intel is trying to do in this space with especially with the use of open Vino to help with some of that optimization yeah I mean I think that this this transformation this whole thing we've been talking about actually opens up space for the developers and one of the things I actually hear from the manufacturers is the systems of the past because they were pretty vertically integrated because that was necessary when you start opening it up to more of an IT type of environment you can get developers and so the complaint from the manufacturers I get innovation only from one company when I can open it up and create a more open system I get innovation from all the developer community I get I have my own people that can write I can buy stuff from the developer community I can hire contractors I can even sell my own back out to the developer community and so we as Intel try to encourage that as a solution space so that you know it advances everything much faster you get more eyes on the whole thing you get more innovation happening and then that drives the whole transformation forward and do you have I know that we may not be able to talk about specific logos like specific customers but do you have an example of how this has worked with in the past with you and the work that you've done with some of the manufacturers with the manufacturers well it it's still very early in this transformation so the developer community is still kind of spinning up but it you know like she mentioned open Vino has had a lot of success and so there are a lot of companies out there using like you know you've got I've got one sitting here like we would consider her as a developer right and so she's taking that open Vino space and moving it forward we've got something that expands upon that with a data bus called Edge Insights for Industrial that is also being used by some system integrators to deliver some video applications as well so those are actually continuing to move forward and and be evaluated and taking more so right now it is more in the video inspection space but I think you're going to see that expand into more and more use cases as it goes forward okay that's great and so Lindy on your side with your team as you're looking at some of these new use cases and the interaction with customers can you describe for the team like what that engagement model really starts to look like because I know that you have a starting point of a model and then that's where your team really kind of engages to the customer environment yeah it well there is some you know one size fits all in in terms of AI models you're always going to have you know a certain bit of specification for the customer right and especially to maintain accuracy you know AI is about iteration and so as you go in you know and you're working with the customers you know to understand you know their needs from a hardware perspective power consumption you know what is the bandwidth available and so you know going in and really being able to very rapidly it's not a completely bespoke solution but at least customize so that you can achieve high levels of accuracy depending on the customer okay so now I'm going to ask you the thing that because I work for Red Hat I should ask you this so let's talk about how we've been working together and so in particular let's talk about the work with Armada and the system that has been built and the role that you see some of the open source technologies that Red Hat provides brings to the AI space oh I am an unabashed fan of Red Hat you know I think you know prior to working with Red Hat we looked at some solutions that you know gum and shoelace right that we made it work but it wasn't it wasn't efficient and it certainly wasn't scalable right and at the end of the day the customer needs something that is as close to turnkey as possible they don't they need something that they don't have to add IT personnel and that doesn't take you know in tens of hours of training they need something that they can install turn on and use that is going to make a difference in what they're doing you know be it manufacturing be it oil and gas and so where Red Hat has been critical to us you know especially Red Hat device edge I think you know we had looked at you know different Kubernetes solutions but when you're talking about the far edge and you're talking about some very small compute Kubernetes is just a little too heavy and so we were introduced to Ansible a little over a year ago and it's made a significant difference and I think that opened our eyes to say we can actually create an entire edge ops platform around it so we've actually integrated Ansible inside you know doing the callbacks and orchestration inside our edge ops platform so that's one two you know especially rel 9 has been absolutely marvelous so using rel 9 and pod man and then you know to replace Docker and then also using quay as our image registry so we consume a incredible of Red Hat products but it really has made a significant difference and I think you know Kelly you and I've had a number of discussions you know as we go out you know getting back to that idea that you have to provide a turnkey solution to a customer you really need a best of breed partner ecosystem because I think as we all go out if we don't have unified messaging and we can we can't come in and say here is your solution and a solution isn't just the software the solution you know you know is the hardware it's the processors you know it is you know the ability to to optimize with with open vino to come in and say here you know xyz corp this can you know can go right into your manufacturing plant this is this is going to be your base for how we begin automation and it is critical to get those components right but to have you know a a glove in hand kind of go to market with all the partners so there isn't so much noise when you go in and so red hat not just from a product standpoint is has been fantastic and and Intel as well you know working with a number of different departments within the company but everybody goes in and says how are we gonna get this done how are we gonna create that turnkey solution and it is such a difference when we sit in front of the customers and we all say here's here's your sheet this is how we're gonna do it here's your solution you know let's begin and it's it's been incredible yeah well I think I love the power of the the user interface that you guys have built that allows for the seamless kind of not only cataloging of the devices and the locations that you're pointing specific models to in the cameras but how seamless it is for the deployment so I'll shamelessly plug red hat with that because the deployment of all the models within their platform is they use Ansible for that and then it obviously runs on on the podman container system with rel now with that because we've been doing a lot of this work what's great is that when I look at the work we've been doing with Intel and we look at the control systems which becomes like the happy marriage of bringing the control along with the data and analytics together we start to see a lot of commonalities in the architecture and so if we look at as an example Darren the the infamous water tank demo that is with Schneider electric in our edge booth I know that we see a lot of similarities in some of the technology that's used but do you want to share with share for the group just in case they haven't been to our booth how that's all working with the water tank demo absolutely so this is a journey we've been on for a little bit we piece some Frankenstein some stuff together in the lab initially and then over the last year or so we've worked with red hat and Schneider electric to put together commercial software actually to bring in more to reality so we have a simulating a process control demo on the edge area on the floor using general purpose compute so some edge devices they use to core l car lake and tied to a server that uses red hat edge linux along with ansible and a runtime from Schneider electric to control the level of two tanks with one of them draining into the other constantly and it controls a variable speed pump to keep a constant level on the top tank so the and it can do bumpless failover which is very important when you're a control environment so that you know nothing ever lose and then ansible detects that something failed spins a new one up and then you you get the redundancy back into place and so if you haven't seen it please go over and see my friends Rob and Jeremy they'll be happy to take you through all that but the other plus to that then is you've got general purpose compute right at the machine level right out on the floor that allows you to do other things that you might want to try so you can deploy a vision case or you can deploy a machine learning that takes time series data and does something you know if you're if you're pulling information off of a welder that's just with arc and electricity etc to do different things so that allows you to do a lot of different things you can and so you know that general purpose compute on the floor allows you remote manageability allows you that to do those other things as well right there on the floor and then you know the things that we still have to to do is you know make sure that all of that creates the determinism that creates the reliability as we move this forward and there are some deployments being tested actually in real factories in real areas that we'll get some feedback on for that so it whenever that whenever that moves forward and it gives then that gives the sort of the the sandbox for people to explore and what they can really do when you get that kind of opportunity right at the machine I think that's a great point so what we're starting to see in the factories is people putting more general compute in their factories some would call it like a mini data center but the intent is then for it to be able to take a lot of the data that may be coming off of the control systems place it within their historian which is basically a time series database and be able to do advanced analytics on it but in addition that because they have the general compute there you can run additional inferencing applications if you need something that's a larger compute or potentially you can get away with not having it directly connected to the camera on that exact same box so we start to get into more general purpose where in manufacturing today I think many of them are are much more accustomed to everything has one specific purpose right lots of small computers and so that you've got a ton of compute that requires a ton of hardware refresh a ton of software updates when they can get to more of this general compute and start some of the I don't really like the word but it's used all the time the workload consolidation they're not really workloads to me if they're running your business because they are literally deciding whether you make money but I know that workload is a pretty common key term and it you know obviously that's very important for us at Intel and to move towards that general purpose compute but I'll steal a phrase from I work with Dr. Henning loser from Audi and been working for a while he was on stage at an ARC conference and his point was today I do have to buy a dedicated box in the future I just want to buy an application I can load on then I can even try it without having to you know go buy a whole box install all this stuff and if it doesn't work I just you know take the application back out and I can try something else and I can try three from different places and decide which one I like the best so not only does it give him opportunity to try to manage his whole factory a lot better but it gives him the opportunity to try different options from different places as simple as maybe not quite as simple because it is a manufacturer environment is downloading an application on your phone that is very interesting we've had a lot of discussion actually in the edge booth around can we just put QR codes on everything and then people can easily scan the the hardware as it comes in with all the software they need and just plug it in so there is definitely the concept of making things simple especially manufacturing which I know that you brought up as well Lindy and so when we think about how we may build AI systems for manufacturing in the future like if you were going to give the audience a little bit of advice what would be kind of the three things that you would tell them to think about that they have to keep in mind when they're going to do AI in the factory it's a great question I think there are a couple a couple things there you know one you know how are you going to scale right you know especially when you're thinking about a factory or not just one factory but multiple factories across multiple geographies so how are you going to scale and you touched on that earlier it's kind of why we built our Armada edge ops platform is to make you know scaling simple you know across so that you can either run you know in the cloud you know or actually on the edge server itself you know I think the other thing you know there as well is how are you going to keep your data secure and so we've added an encryption layer as well that you need to encrypt at the device level and you need to make sure that those divide you know edge is much much more difficult than cloud when it comes to security so you have to make sure that you have the right system in place so that somebody can't just come up and walk away with that intel nut right that if that happens then you don't have any compromises and you know you need to think about you know what are the parameters in the manufacturing plant itself you know is energy consumption a critical factor for you is cost you know a critical factor for you I think the power of the edge is that you can have hundreds if not thousands of heterogeneous devices but you know I think this is why we've partnered with Intel is that Intel really gets that in a way that other companies that we work with have not and that you know you really can run you know on small compute and the edge is a volume game and you need the right partners who understand that who can build you know the right hardware and the right infrastructure along with you as you go out and as you start building you know the different ai use cases Darren same question for you well I'm going to just build on what she said and expand on it so absolutely the security the intrinsic security I think is comes across is very important the other thing I'm going to say about the scalability is what you see is people will put in they'll test something over here and they'll test something over there and they'll test a third thing and only start putting a fourth thing and then the plant manager the owner or the engineering manager come in and go like well we need a data platform and none of these things connect to it now I've got all these disparate systems that I want to connect I've got to start all over and so they get upset so you have to think about as you start growing you need to think about your data platform and how that goes and then the other piece of when you start installing ai is are you going to close the loop so what I find is okay well I know what's wrong now but I how might what am I gonna do about it and so because in some cases we've we've done some you know POCs and stuff with vision and if and we can tell you whether something's going good or bad in milliseconds but all we can do right now because the systems aren't quite there yet is stop the machine and have somebody come over and go oh okay let's do what we can't so the next question is well how do we connect all these things together and close that loop how do I make it so that it's becomes more and more autonomous which we see as moving forward I'm smiling because I feel like you set that up for me perfectly with our edge ops platform or Armada does you know especially with with IoT devices and cameras you know there's a whole layer in there that actually allows you to start stop processing you know look at camera angle you know set your ROI so you know if you're doing optical character recognition you can say you know focus in on on this component of the so you can there's some amount of self-correction built into it again making it more simple for the customer to use excellent so I want to thank both of you for coming and talking about the work that you're doing it for AI and manufacturing I think that we've got a little bit of time so we'll definitely like let's stick around see what questions that the group may have because I have a feeling there may be some like this gentleman right here seems to be a very interesting question yes it's much more about physical security right because if you're moving data to the cloud then you only have one issue when you're talking about the edge you're talking about tens if not thousands of devices that somebody and these are small devices that somebody could literally come unplug put in their pocket and walk away with and if you're talking about computer vision depending on the use case and depending on the privacy level if you're oil and gas you have some very proprietary information on that device if you haven't encrypted at the device level and then attached that you know kind of glove in hand to the network properly you big problem and so it's not like somebody's coming in and you know lugging you know some big server out of there that somebody's going to notice when you're talking when you're talking about a you know an Intel knock or an SDM or Raspberry Pi right these are things that are very easy to tuck you know tuck into a pocket and walk out with but I think there's also a piece in the the cyber piece like if you're talking about the control system that is very true um when I talk to manufacturers the intrinsic security I'm mentioning is their security today is an air gap like if you would if you wanted to mess with a refinery you'd have to run through the door and turn a handle on a valve right if it now becomes connected everyone outside the cement box that the control system resides in today everyone kind of has the somebody hacked into target through the air conditioner or something if if somebody does that to our refinery it's a bad day for the neighborhood right I mean in something in that case or and so they're obviously very sensitive to making sure that that something like that cannot happen right right those are very important things and they want to make sure that as the system is built security is thought and built in as it's created so I think you have to think about what maybe is taking place within a factory so if you think about whether it's a refinery or it's an actual you know physical factory like making automobiles there is human life that is at risk most of the time when you're thinking about what happens in these facilities whereas when you're thinking about kind of endpoints off of the the ingress or egress from the cloud that's just application and data while privacy and data security are still really important there's a slightly different dynamic when you're talking about the risk of human life and it's not just the the risk of human life of the people that are working in the factory but as I kind of joked with some people when they are looking at the demo around the water tank what happens if this you know the water tank overflows well in real life things could go boom and that also means that you know neighborhoods and you know people outside of the working condition could be at risk so many of these systems have to be designed very differently from a security standpoint because while they may not be a government entity I think many may consider them to be like national infrastructure on thinking about how these particular industries may run right so in it's more than securing the actual hardware yes yeah yes Hello Steve it's nice to see you again industrial-centric context or you know they have all lived very very uh temperature environments humidity environments, power constrained environments and so like in this the whole thing about the way we are but if you have a question I can forward a lot of the answers I wanted to give from the table or give the your context to this so broad once you put a device in manufacturing compliance or in a bus stop that device will be missing from what walks out of the plant over there how critical is the data? GDPR compliance yep yeah the GDPR compliance is is critical if the second you step foot in Europe but I want to piggyback off something you said as well that I think what's critical to think about in terms of the edge is what you don't want to do when when you're talking about security is create you know a very tedious environment as well so you need kind of a good soft handshake between the edge device and and the edge server that you're running so that you can make it so that these things you know are are are automated they are repeatable you don't want something having to go and you know you don't want to unlock the door every single time you have to run an application if you take the device and leave I can decrypt everything and you add on the thing I can try to pull your language model links off of the device and have it reference something in the server for security department and at that point this is securing the zero of the edge but then I think of the edge you can do it right when the zero is just architecture and you segment your network correctly and you have the correct thing to place that the edge would probably be the place you could start carving the most that's one aspect of it you know but you know let's take what they're doing with with Schneider Electric right in terms of that demo like when you start automating you know those systems you have to make sure that somebody can't take them over externally as well and I think it's there are a lot of different things you know going on with that you know especially also not from the security aspect you know but the other thing you know and I'll get back to an earlier point I made AI is about iteration right you can't just have a set and forget for a model otherwise your accuracy is going to drop over time and so you do have to have that you know a good easy to use management layer so you can push updates so you can manage you know one of the things we've added to it recently and I'm excited to demo this for you soon is we've actually added a data layer to it so we've created a data store so now you can pull you know either the inferencing the JSON data or the image data pull it back to the edge server and so you can actually do retraining at the edge so you've made the system actually a little bit more secure because you don't have to bring any data off of the edge in order to do retraining so slightly different aspect of security but critical nonetheless any other questions I'm we're what's stopping people from being able to have a drink so yeah yeah I fully appreciate that so thank you all very much for coming really appreciate your time and if you have any other questions for us you will find us in in the edge booth in the the exhibit hall if you haven't seen it we have lots of really cool stuff that you actually get to physically see it's not just a display screen so that's booth yeah so come on down thank you thank you everyone thanks

Hello, Lubega and John Paul, Jepina, Laidama for good to see all of you. Thank you for joining us. Also, warm welcome to our e-learning students who will be listening to these lectures later on. We'll continue our study on Romans chapter 13. We began looking at it on Friday. We'll continue with Romans chapter 13. Basically, we were considering several questions with regard to the governing authorities, because Paul is basically talking about the believers and the government and their relationship, the believers' relationship with the government. He's specifically mentioning it here because the believers, the church at Rome, were persecuted by the leader, by the government, and they were going through a real difficult and a hard time. So he's writing to them things that they might not be very happy to hear, adhere to, follow. But we know that Paul is writing this not in his own wisdom, in his own understanding, but he's writing this being led by the Holy Spirit. And even as he's writing this as a Holy Spirit leads him, I'm sure it's the Holy Spirit that will enable the church at Rome to see this in a positive way and to do what God requires them to do and what the Holy Spirit requires them to do. Okay, so before we continue our study on Romans chapter 13, can one of you please lead us in prayer, please? Anyone can do that in prayer? Dear Heavenly Father, we come here under the name of Jesus. We thank you for this day. We thank you for the class we're about to have. We thank you for Pastor Selena, whose blessing is all with all her teachings, Jesus. We thank you that you have filled her with knowledge and the ability to teach God, whereas we are listening to the classes help us to open our mind and heart and listen to the deepest truth of the Bible and help us to walk in it, Jesus, not just listening to it, but walking in the truth, walking with the kingdom mind, said walking with you as our priority in this life, Jesus. Let this be our motive as we are listening, help us to learn a little more deep about you through the class and everything that we learn, let us put into action and let us give you all the glory and honor in Jesus name I pray. Thank you, Jeffina. So we began considering a few questions with regard to governing authorities. The first one we looked at was in what sense are governing authorities appointed by God? And what about unjust, corrupt, and wicked leaders? So to answer that question, we looked at how God had instituted governmental authority. And we looked at a few points regarding that. We also looked at how we need to recognize that God has given them the permission. God has permitted them in that place of leadership, of responsibility. And I think that is where we stopped. We were going to answer this second point that we need to recognize God's permission. So we need to recognize that civic leaders and people in governmental positions as people who God has permitted. And hence we need to honor them for the position that they hold. And we need to see them in a way that they are there because God has permitted them. And without God permitting them, they would not be there in that place of authority. So there is a providence or permission of God where He allows or He permits people to enter into places of authority, whether they deserve it or not, or whether they have gained access to this place of authority and position lawfully or unlawfully. We know that we can see them as people who are being appointed by God in the sense that they have been permitted by God to be in that place of power and influence. So God's permission does not imply or God permitting them to be in that place of authority does not imply that God approves of all that they are doing and saying. That's very important for us to know that even though God permits them, whether they have come there lawfully, unlawfully, whether they deserve it or don't deserve it, it does not mean that God approves of everything that they do and they say. So we see this also throughout the scripture that kings and rulers are in their place by God's permission and God has permitted them to be in that place of influence and power at that particular time and place. And there are times when God sovereignly sets up one and puts down the other and God sovereignly stirs the king or the ruler to fulfill his or carry out his specific plan and purpose. Okay, let's look at these three scripture passages. I would like y'all to read aloud these three scripture passages. So one of you can please turn to Psalms chapter 75, read verses six and seven. Someone else can read from Daniel chapter two verse 21 and someone else please read from Daniel chapter four verse 17. So that's Psalm 75 verse six and seven. Can somebody read that please? Psalm 75 verses six and seven. More from the east, more from the west, more from the desert comes exaltation. But God is the judge, he puts down one and lives up another. Amen. Thank you, Jafina. So here we see that God puts down one and he exalts the other. Okay, Daniel chapter two was 21. Can somebody read that please? Daniel 221. For exaltation, oh sorry, Daniel 221 and he changes the times and the seasons. He removes kings and raises up kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and acknowledged those who have some understanding. Amen. Thank you, Zalutoli. So he says he removes kings and he raises up kings. Okay, Daniel 417. Can somebody read that? Daniel 417. This decision is by the decree of the watchers and the sentence by the word of the holy ones in order that the living may know that the most high rules in the kingdom of men gives it to whomever he will and sets over it the lowest of men. Amen. Thank you, Zalutoli. So he says that the most high rules the kingdom of men, he gives it to whomever he wills and he sets over it the lowest of men. So here we see that, you know, God can, you know, in his sovereignty, he can put down one, he can sold another, he, you know, he can in his sovereignty also stir up kings and rulers to carry out his specific plans and purposes. And just to state a few examples, Pharaoh, you know, Pharaoh was in the place at that given time so that God could display his power in Egypt. Saul and David, you know, we know that Saul was acting out of jealousy, and he was all out with his evil intention to kill David. But yet we see that David, you know, even as he had the opportunity to kill Saul, you know, he does not do it. He calls him as Saul as the Lord's anointed. He recognizes that, you know, King Saul is there in his place of position because of God's authority. And in God, in his authority, his place Saul there as King. And then we also look at King Nebuchadnezzar, who God used to, you know, to destroy Israel, to destroy Jerusalem and to take them as captives. He used them to judge his own people. And then he also brings King Nebuchadnezzar to a place where he gets him to recognize that God alone is the true and living God. And of course we know King Cyrus, the Persian king, you know, who was moved by God to, you know, empower the Jews to return to Jerusalem and to build the city and the temple. But having said this, that God had, you know, permitted them to be in that place of authority, not everything that these leaders said and did was from God. Okay, we need to ensure that this truth is known. Okay. But in some way God used them to carry out his purposes, even though they were, you know, imperfect people or leaders. Let's look at another example how, you know, Jesus spoke about Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, who was Roman governor with Judea. In John chapter 19 was 10 to 11, you know, the Pilate, Jesus tells Pilate, you have no, you could have no power at all against me unless it's given to you from above. So yeah, Jesus recognized that Pilate was in the place that he was in, because the Father had permitted him to be so. So while Pilate would be responsible for the decisions that he made, you know, Jesus says, that therefore the one who delivered me to you has the greatest sins. So he's saying, you know, even though he recognizes that Pilate would be responsible for the decision he's going to make regarding Jesus. Jesus also affirmed that the wrongdoing was not just entirely Pilate, but also, you know, those who delivered him up to Pilate in the first place. And that is the Jewish leaders, the high priest, the scribes, the Pharisees, Sanities, and also with the help of Judas. Okay, so even though God permits people into leadership positions, you know, it's not that he, you know, he does not approve of all that they do and say in their lifestyle, immoral lifestyle or the wrong lifestyle or the wrong decisions, but he can also sovereignly set up one, pull down the other and he can also use kings and rulers to bring about his specific plans and purposes. Okay, the third thing we need to keep in mind is government's responsibility. God's permission or a governing authority being appointed by God does not mean that the leader's character, you know, or their motives or their decisions, the actions that they make is all approved by God, is all directed by God, is all led by God. No, the leader or the governing authority is responsible for their own actions, for their own decisions, and they will be accountable to God for their words and their actions. Okay, like it says in Proverbs chapter 17 verse 15. Can somebody read that Proverbs chapter 17 verse 15? He who justifies the wicked in, he who condemns the just, what of them alike are an abomination to the Lord? Yes, so here he says, you know, he, God who justifies the wicked and he condemns the just, that means even if a just the righteous person does something wrong, God can, you know, judge them for their sin, condemn them for their sin. The fourth one is, you know, the choices and the actions of the people in the land influence basically, sorry. The choices and the actions of the people in the land influence who comes to place of authority in that specific land or that specific country or specific place. So we must remember that a nation always receives a government it deserves. You know, if a nation is filled with people who are corrupt, who have no regard for moral values, they will have leaders who do the same because after all the leaders grew up among them, you know, leaders are one among them. So, however, if the people change, you know, then the government will also change. Okay, so the government is therefore an expression of the people it represents. So we can say, you know, the week that, you know, we have a wicked government is because the government is coming from the people, you know, and that is how they have been raised up. That's what they've seen, that's what they have learned and that is what they're going to live out. But if the people change, you know, the government will also change because the government actually is an expression of the people it represents. Okay, and the fifth one, the fifth point is that God can steer the leaders for a specific purpose. We already saw this that, you know, God can use or change the heart of leaders or governing authorities of the civil government to release his specific purposes to fulfill his plan and purposes. And it's often done in response to prayer. Okay, so even as people have got pray, God would move on their behalf to change things in the land and to, you know, release his specific plans and purposes. Okay, look at what Proverbs chapter 21 verse 1 says. Can somebody read that, please? Proverbs 21-1. Proverbs 21-1. The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord like the rivers of water. He turns it wherever he wishes. Amen. Thank you, Zealotoli. So the king's heart is in the hand of the Lord and God can do whatever he wishes with and move him in whatever direction or fulfill his plans and purposes, achieve what he wants to be done. Okay. So in Romans chapter 13 verses 1-8, Paul is saying that we are to submit to civic authorities. Okay, telling the church at Rome, it also implies to us, and we are to give them the honor to whom honor is due. And we need to recognize them that they are part of the institution who God has put in place. Even if they are ungodly or corrupt, we recognize that God can still work out his purposes through them. Okay. And what do we do? You know, we need to pray. We need to intercede and we need to expect God to work out his purposes. And ultimately it's God who is the final authority who can override or can stop, you know, whatever he wants to stop, whatever these rulers, authorities are doing. He can stop them and God can intervene and override the wrong that they intend to do and he can do all this in response to our prayer. Okay. So so important for us as a church to pray. So important for us as individuals to pray to God to see what we want to change in our government, in the rules, in the laws, in the decrees that they make in the way the administration that they bring about the infrastructure that they bring about in our city and in our nation. So when we pray, you know, God moves and he intervenes and he does what his will is in accordance with his will. But on the other hand, you know, we also need to, from our side, need to respect and honor those in authority just like scripture tells us and we should not fight what the leaders are doing. And we don't fight them as long as what they are doing and saying does not violate what God's standard is or what God has required of us or what God's laws and his word as says of us. Okay. So we can ask the question to what extent do we submit to the governing authorities? You know, it says be subject. Subject means, you know, means to submit. So we have to submit in all things as long as, you know, it does, it does not contradict the laws of God. In such cases, we obey God before man. Okay, so as long as as aligned to the law of God, you know, we, you know, we follow it. And as long as it's not aligned to the law of the will of God, the word of God, you know, that's when we, we don't obey man, but we obey God. Okay. Let's look at two instances in Acts chapter four. Okay. Or we look at that a little later. But you know, okay, one is in Acts chapter four, we look at two instances. Sorry. One in Acts chapter four and the other one is in Acts chapter five. In Acts chapter four, we see that Peter and John have been preaching and teaching the name of Jesus. And, you know, they are commanded, you know, by the Sanhedrin, by the rulers not to preach. And teach. Okay. So they're brought before the Sanhedrin and, you know, they are commanded not to teach and preach. And that, you know, but Peter and John answer and say, you know, is it right for us in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God? You judge. So they say, hey, who do we listen to? You know, because he's talking to the Sanhedrin. He's talking to these religious leaders who know the Old Testament law and, you know, the Torah and they know that they have to obey God rather than man. So they say, hey, you tell us what is right in the sight of God, whether it is to listen to man or to listen to God, you judge. Okay. And they say, we cannot speak things which we have not seen or heard. And then in Acts chapter five, we see that the apostles are going around preaching and teaching and they're all taken and put into prison. And at night, the angel of God comes and releases them from prison. And the angel of God tells them, now go to the temple and preach and teach what you have heard and what you have seen. Okay. So the next day morning, the Sanhedrin meets and the Sanhedrin sent and asked for the apostles to be bought. And when the soldiers go, they see that the cell is empty. The prison cell is empty and they are all shocked. And then some people tell them, hey, these men that you have had in prison, they're there in the temple and they are preaching and teaching. Okay. And we see that, you know, they're commanded strictly, they're brought to the Sanhedrin, they're commanded strictly not to teach in the name of Jesus. Okay. And again, you know, Peter and the other apostles, they answer and say, we ought to obey God rather than man. Okay. If the government is telling us to do some things that is against God's law or his word, then we at those times, you know, we need, what do we do? You know, we need to obey what God has commanded us, what he has given us in his word and we obey his law. Okay. But at the same time, we need to be careful not to violate other people's personal space or government space. Okay. And for example, we have a law in our land that, you know, in the city that we are from, I am from, that we are not supposed to preach and teach and baptize and all of those things. So, you know, so we don't, we adhere to the law in terms of not going and openly preaching and teaching, or even if we go and openly preach and teach, we get permission from the police. If you want to have a crusade or we want to have a do something in a mall or an outreach or we want to do some kind of ministry, we get permission from the, you know, from the police. Okay. But, you know, at the same time, we need to be careful that we don't violate people's personal space. We don't do it where, you know, where we can get into trouble and then say we are persecuted that is bringing upon ourselves unnecessary problems and difficulties and also the government space. If you want to meet or we want to preach and teach, we do that in our church, in our home setting, you know, and not in our office or not in other people's home, which can cause a problem to, or it can seem as us breaking the law. So, we need to be very, very mindful of these things and yet we can, you know, exercise God given authority and right and that we can preach and teach the gospel. Okay. So, another question that we can raise up or we can raise up, sorry, it should be not raise our voice and express our concern or stand against injustice and wickedness. So, if a government is doing something that is unjust and, you know, wicked, shouldn't we raise our voice and express concern? Yes, we can while we walk in honor, while we honor the government and we walk in submission to governmental authorities. We can speak out, we can use our rights as citizens or the freedom that we have as people to express our ideas to raise our voice against injustice and wickedness. But, you know, it does not imply that, you know, we do this in a way that can, you know, go against or, you know, kind of retaliating or kind of bringing in this unity or fighting or a civil war or, you know, all of those things. Okay. But we can raise our voice against injustice and wickedness. Okay. Okay. Look at was Proverbs chapter 25 verse five. Can somebody read that please. Take away the wicked from before the king and his throne, a throne will be established in righteousness. Thank you. So here, you know, in the modern day context of people phrase their voice, you know, of righteousness before, you know, before leadership was saying what is what needs to be done right or what is done. It is wickedness or injustice, injustice, you know, we can help the government be established in righteousness. Okay. Proverbs chapter 31 verses eight and nine says, open your mouth for the speechless, you know, open your mouth to judge righteousness and plead the cause of the poor and needy. So when we see injustice, when we see the poor, the, you know, the lowly being oppressed and wicked things being done against them, they are neglected. Or the needs of people in the lower strata of our society are not being met. We can raise our voice, we can do something and, you know, we can plead their case. That action is taken. Okay. We also see in this chapter that, you know, Paul is referring to the government as what does he call them as? What does he call them? I mentioned this in the last class. Anyone remembers in the first few verses he calls them as in chapter 13. What does he call the government or the civil authorities as anyone? Hello, anyone in the class? He calls them as God's ministers, right? Remember I said that on Friday, calls them as God's ministers. Okay. Now the word ministers, similar to the English word for beacon. So this represents God's intent for governing authorities for them. Actually, when he's called Paul is referring to them as God's ministers. He's, you know, his intent or God's intent to the Holy Spirit here. You know, revealing this to Paul is the Holy Spirit's intent or God's intent is that they also, you know, are like God's ministers or deacons. Okay. Although, you know, most of them, you know, in practice may fail to live up to this calling. But as long as they're doing things that are righteous, you know, we cooperate with them. But if they are doing something that is unjust or this injustice and wickedness, then we do what we can in the framework that has been given to us as citizens. We can do what we can do to talk or to raise our concerns or to raise our voice. Okay. So in verses one to seven, Paul has asked us to obey the governing authorities. Okay. Verses three to five. He says we submit. We have to submit to the governing authorities was three. He says to receive. Why should we do that? So that in verse three, he says to receive their approval and versus four and five. He says we submit to governing authority so that we avoid punishment and was five. He also says for conscious sake. And it was a six to seven. He says it's important for us to pay taxes and give honor and what is due to the government. Okay. So that was Romans chapter 13 versus one to seven. We'll move on to versus eight to 14 before that anyone has any questions. Okay. Questions. Can one of you please read Romans chapter 13 versus eight to 14. Please. Roman chapter 13 versus eight to 14. Can anyone read that things? This chapter 13 versus eight to 14. Oh, no on anything except to love one another. For he who loves another has fulfilled the law for the commandments. Murder. You shall not steal. You shall not bear witness. You shall not covered. And if there is any other commandment or all summed up in the same, namely, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. Love. There's no harm to neighbor. Therefore, love is the fulfillment of the law. Okay. And so it is knowing the time that now it is high time to awake out of sleep for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. The night is far spent. The day is at hand. Therefore, let us cast off the works of the darkness and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk properly as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh to fulfill its lust. Amen. Thank you. Thank you, Jafina. So in verse eight, Paul says the key to submitting to governing authorities to obey them, to pay taxes to them and all of those things, the key is love. Okay. And he says, if you love, you will do no harm to your neighbor. Okay. And also when you love, you will love the Lord and you will keep the law. So loving people is essentially the fulfillment of the law because when we walk in love, we are basically able to keep all the other commandments. So love is basically the key here. When we love God, we will love people irrespective of who they are, what they do. And also in loving people, he's saying, we are fulfilling the law. And we also keep all other commandments. So you see how smartly, very wisely, Paul is mentioning these things because he's telling them, hey, you need to submit to governing authorities. You need to obey them. You need to respect them. You need to honor them. You need to pay your taxes, which is for the Jew is something very difficult to actually listen to, pay and do. Okay. And here he's saying, you know, when you love, you're actually, he's coming back to the law because for the Jews, the law was so important. Everything had to do with the law. So he's very smartly, you know, very cleverly, he's saying, you know, you know, or the key to doing all of these things to the government in your life is love. And he says, if you love, then you're actually keeping the law. And he's saying, remember that, you know, when you love that you're not only, you know, you're keeping all of the other commandments, you're not breaking any commandment because he's saying all of the commandments is summed up in this. You shall love your neighbor as your self. Okay. So look at how, you know, he's a very, very, very intelligent smart man. You know, the way he writes, the way he brings in his thoughts and the way he gives basis for what he is saying so that no one can argue, no one can go against what he is saying. And of course he has the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Okay. And he says that love must be our standard. In verses 11 to 14 he talks about the personal life of the believer, the way we live as believers. So, you know, he's saying that, you know, we, how we need to live, we need to live as in purity, live as in the day. So he says, awake the night has gone, the day has come. So we need to live as one who is awake, not one who is still in deep sleep and slumber, which means we need to live as people who are always alert, knowing what we are doing mindful of what we're doing and, you know, doing what is right and honoring in God's sight. Okay. This is cast off the works of darkness. We get rid of the deeds of darkness. That means, you know, do away with the deeds of darkness, don't have anything, you know, with the deeds of darkness. And he says, put on the armor of light means put on righteousness as the SN armor, which means in everything that you do, say, think, act, you know, do what is right in God's sight because you have been made righteous. He's already spoken about that, how we've been made righteous, not by keeping the law by place. And what Jesus has done for us on the cross and how he's made us righteous, how he's justified us. So he's saying, put on righteousness SN armor. And then he says walk properly, which means, you know, walk decently, walk in a God honoring way, walk in a way that's pleasing in God's sight, which is acceptable in God's sight. Walk honestly before God. And he says avoid rivalry, wild parties, drunkenness, you know, indecency, sexual immorality, loneliness, lust, sensuality, you know, strife, horrors, arguments, fighting, envy, jealousy. He says, you know, do away with all of these deeds of darkness. And how can we walk properly? We need to put on the Lord Jesus Christ. So we see that Paul uses this face, put on the Lord Jesus Christ often. He also writes this in his letter to the church at Colosse and to the church at Ephesus. So, you know, what does it mean? You know, when you wear something, everyone gets to see it, right? Everyone sees, people see what you wear. So here he's saying, you know, be clothed with Jesus, which means he's saying, you know, be completely covered or be fully attired with Jesus Christ or be just so full or be soaked with Jesus Christ. And he says put on Jesus Christ in the way that you think, you act, your mannerisms, the way of life. So that when people see us, you know, it's good as seeing Jesus Christ. That's what he means when he says put on the Lord Jesus Christ. So that's what he's saying to the church at Rome. You know, even though things are difficult and challenging and persecuted, he's saying put on the Lord Jesus Christ, which means be soaked, be completely covered, fully attired with Jesus Christ in the way you think, you act, your mannerisms, the way of life, so that people can see Jesus Christ in you. And put on the Lord Jesus Christ also means assimilate. You know, assimilate everything about Jesus in you so that when people see you, they see Jesus. And he says, don't give room for any of the carnal nature or the deeds of the flesh, the things of the flesh. Okay, don't give room for the flesh to exercise itself. And he says, make no provision for the flesh. Provision means what? You know, preparation, you know, when you are, provision means basically when you are making preparation for your future needs. Or there is, you're preparing for in anticipation to fulfill a specific need. So here he's saying, you know, do not make any preparation beforehand to meet the sinful desires of the flesh. Now to say it differently, he's basically saying, you know, prepare beforehand ahead of time to deny the things of the flesh or its sinful desires. Which means we need to already have to put strategies and things in place in our lives, even before we are going to face those temptations. So we know what are some of the temptations we will face in life. You know, I know what as a single lady, what are some of the temptations or the fleshly carnal nature that I can face. So, you know, I need to have strategies in place for myself, you know, things, boundaries that I put in place for myself, so that I don't, you know, step in out of my boundaries. And then, you know, mess up with my life and breathe the Holy Spirit or break the heart of God. So beforehand, ahead of time, we need to prepare ourselves so that we can deny the sinful desires of the flesh. Okay. And so he says, preempt the flesh and cut off any opportunity for it to have its way in our lives. That means don't give the flesh any opportunity or don't give the sinful desires to be satisfied. Nail it, crucify it, you know, deprive the flesh of any chance of having its way or say no, even before the flesh makes its request. So, you know, as people of God, we need to, you know, be preemptive in terms of, you know, taking ahead of time or planning, you know, what are some of the things that we can fall prey to, or what can Satan, you know, put in our way to stop us from being effective in the calling and the plan and the purpose and our testimony and the assignment that God has given to us or the calling of the position that God has given to us. So, you know, put some strategies and boundaries in place, you know, I have put some strategies and boundaries in place in my own life, which I follow and, you know, and I'm mindful of, you know, when I relate with people, you know, I know what is my boundaries, how much I can, to the extent I can go, what I should avoid, what I should not do, and all of those things. So, you know, it's important for us to do that so that, you know, even before we get into those situations and then we fall into sin and say, oh, I shouldn't have done that. So, put strategies in place and, you know, so it means that every day we put on Jesus, okay. When we put on Jesus, which means he says, you know, cloth your, put on Jesus Christ, okay. That's what he says, right, put on the Lord Jesus Christ. So, when you put on the Lord Jesus Christ, every day, you know, we would make no provision for the flesh, okay. We will make absolutely no provision for the flesh and that is how he ends this chapter. So, it's important that, you know, that we put on the Lord Jesus Christ so that we don't make any provisions for the flesh. And we have personal boundaries and strategies in place what we would do, what we would not do. I realize at times, you know, when I did not have my personal strategies and boundaries for certain areas of my life, I have, you know, I have messed up, you know, I have done things that are wrong and it's not God honoring me. So, I realize how important it is to place boundaries and strategies that you have so that you don't, you're mindful of it and you don't cross it and it is helpful for you as a person, okay. So, that was Romans chapter 13. Any questions? Does anyone have any questions? Okay. There are no questions. So, we move on to Romans chapter 14 where basically Paul is talking about respecting others. So, we'll begin reading Romans chapter 14. I think they are basically 23 verses. So, if all of you can read about, you know, three of you can read six, six verses. And the others in the fourth person can read five verses. And we don't know if we'll get done by the end of this class, but wherever we are, we can stop if we are coming to the end of the class time. Okay. So, can somebody read Romans chapter 14 verses one to six, please. Receive one who is weak in faith, but not to dispute over doubtful things. For one who believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables. Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat. And let not him who does not eat judge him who eats. For God has received him. Who are you to judge another servant? To his own master, he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand for God is able to make him stand. One person esteems one day above another, another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced on his own mind. He who observes the day observes it to the Lord, and he who does not observe the day to the Lord, he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord for he gives God thanks. And he who does not eat to the Lord, he does not eat and gives God thanks. Emen, thank you, John Paul. Can someone else read verses 7 to 12? For none of us lives to himself and no one dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord. For to this end, Christ died and rose and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living. But why do you judge your brother, or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, as I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So that each of us shall give account of himself to God. Thank you, Zealotolis. Can someone else read from verses 13 to 18, please? Or 19? Romans chapter 13 verses 13 to 19. Therefore, let us not judge one another anyway, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cross to fall in our brother's way. I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself. But to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. Yet if your brother is agreed because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died. Therefore, do not let your good be spoken of as evil. For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men. Therefore, let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may identify another. Amen. Thank you, Japhina. So can someone read the last few verses, please? Verses 20 to verse 23, right? Yeah, we have two more minutes. So can somebody read verses 20 to verse 23? Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things are indeed, all things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense. It is good neither to eat, mate nor drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother fended or is made weak. Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. But he who doubts is if he eats because he does not eat from faith for whatever is not from faith is sin. Amen. Thank you, John Paul. Just before we end in Romans 14, Paul is talking about how to relate to one another. He's talking about Christian living and two key points he highlights in Romans chapter 14. The first one is don't judge another brother or don't judge another believer who is expressing his faith a little differently from you. And the second thing is, you know, don't become a stumbling block to someone else, which means you live in such a way that when you are expressing your faith, you shouldn't cause or be a stumbling block to somebody else's faith. Whether it is eating, drinking, the way you dress, you know, the way you speak, the way you do things, don't be a stumbling block to someone else. So this is what he is basically talking in this chapter and we look at this chapter in detail on Friday. So your assessment is, I will release it tomorrow. Okay. And since you've requested for more time, I will, you know, give you time till Friday. Is that okay? Is that fine, everyone? I'll release it tomorrow and it's Friday now. Yes, Pastor. Okay. Thank you. Zalutuli, is that enough for you, dear? Yes, Pastor. Okay. Okay. Thank you everyone for joining class. See you on Friday. I will bless it. Thank you, everyone.

Hi, I'm Hannah and hi, I'm the founder of the Kaia Method. I want to start by asking you all a few questions. So, does your body tell you when you're hungry? Does it tell you when you're tired? Does it tell you when you're hurt? Does it tell you when you fall in love? Awesome. So, the real question is, do you listen? Like, do you really listen? And I ask that because most of us don't. And this is the problem. Not listening to the body and the mind-body disconnection is a global epidemic that hinders humanity's growth in numerous ways, three of which I focus on. It hinders the healing of personal, collective, and transgenerational trauma. And it hinders our ability to expand our personal and collective consciousness at the level of embodiment. And it also hinders our ability to connect at the level of our shared humanity, which is why I developed the Kaia Method. And the Kaia Method is a somatic methodology that harnesses the power of dance to transmute trauma, expand consciousness, and bridge cultures. So we'll start with the first one, healing trauma. So trauma is actually not just primarily stored in the mind. It is stored in our cellular memory and our bodies on a neuropeptide level. So in order to fully transmute trauma, we actually have to work with the body. And secondly, expanding consciousness. When we're in states of embodiment, we actually change our brain frequencies from the beta chatter of the mind to alpha and theta frequencies of understanding, compassion, and deep creativity. So I like to imagine a world where every entrepreneur creates from that space. And the projects that they put out into the world from that space is one of integrity, honesty, and depths of truth. And lastly, cultural bridging is where this all began. I traveled to Oman under the Obama administration to bring together American and Omani youth through dance and movement and ritual. And through that, really grew to understand the healing power and potentialities of dance. And I took it to Israel and Palestine and I worked with the youth there, Israeli and Palestinian youth, bringing them together through art, dance, meditation. And I'm a big believer that this is what the world means especially among youth, especially in conflict areas in the world. So where I see Kaya in New Zealand is facilitating workshops in communities with lots of collective and transgenerational trauma and also certifying Kaya instructors so they can have the tools to perpetuate that healing and continue that healing far beyond this generation. And I also see opening Kaya studio spaces across New Zealand to make dance healing and exploration accessible to the general public and an integrated component of everyday life. And so Kaya works with a unique combination of meditation, visualization, intentional dance sequencing and structured improvisation, all targeting very specific chakras, meridian systems and brain frequencies. And instead of going further into that on a level of intellect, I would love to give you a little taste, like a tiny taste of what Kaya is. So if you would all do me the honor and close your eyes, sit nice and tall in your chairs and just take a really deep breath and just start to scan the energetic and the physical body. Notice any kind of discomfort, tension, closure. This might be physical pain, it might be emotional angst, maybe in the heart or closure in the throat or solar plexus. Just take a moment to feel into the part of your body that is speaking the most loudly to you. And when you've identified it, place the left hand, the receiving hand on that part of your body that is asking to be acknowledged. Thank you for acknowledging the part of your body that is asking to be heard. And I know it's a really, really, really tiny, tiny taste. I am gonna be facilitating a workshop here if you guys want to investigate this further. Thank you so much.

We have general questions. The Scottish one in the name of Paul Martin is not lodged. The member has provided an explanation question to George Adam. Thank you, Presiding Officer. To ask the Scottish Government what impact the recent ffanzones among PAP will have on its policy in banning alcohol at football matches. Minister, Jamie Hepburn. I understand the ffanzones set up at the match between St Myr and Motherwells located outwith the restricted areas as covered by alcoholic football around its legislation. There are no plans to remove the existing restrictions on alcoholic football grounds. George Adam. I thank the minister for his answer. The minister would be aware that St Myr's ffanzones and adults were allowed to consume alcohol at the ground before the game. That passed without incident and encouraged a family event with various sections within the zone, including a play area for younger people. That was enjoyed by most of the fans, including myself and my wife Stacey. Would the minister support St Myr being used as a pilot club as a way to examine alcohol being reintroduced at football stadiums on match day? Minister. I say to Mr Adam that I am sure that he enjoyed and Stacey enjoyed that experience more than the last time our teams met when Patec Thistle 119. I thought that that was important to place on the record. In relation to the specific matter at hand, decisions on this matter are informed by Police Scotland, which confirmed that it is not at this stage minded to seek a relaxation of the controls on alcohol being sold within the stadiums at football matches, but is engaging with interested parties in reviewing matters. As a member of the SPFL, St Myr's ffanzones is one of those interested parties that should be part of any review. Thank you, Henry. Thank you. I think that George Adam makes an eminently sensible suggestion. I cannot understand why the minister won't look at a pilot project that encourages football fans to be treated as responsible adults in the same way that rugby fans are. Minister. Of course we will always be willing to consider any particular proposition that is put before us, but the position remains that we are informed in these matters by Police Scotland and they have confirmed at this stage that they are not minded to seek a relaxation of the existing controls. Question 3, Kenneth Gibson. To ask the Scottish Government whether it will review the impact of employment tribunal fees prior to the proposed devolution. Cabinet Secretary, Roseanna Cunningham. The Scottish Government is concerned that the current fee system unfairly impedes access to justice and in preparing for any new devolved responsibilities we will want to review the impact they might have. Kenneth Gibson. I thank the minister for that answer. Figures obtained by the Herald reveal a 68 per cent fall in Scottish cases, a fall of almost 5,000 in the nine months since the fees were introduced. Excuse me, Mr Gibson. Does the minister agree with the Law Society of Scotland that the impact of such fees has been catastrophic for claimants and that such fees are basically a charter for rogue employers? Cabinet Secretary. The member might be interested to know that Fergus Ewing, the Minister for Business, Energy and Tourism, wrote to Joe Swinson MP on 24 June 2013 outlining this Government's opposition to those fees. He highlighted then that for many people fees will represent an unaffordable risk regardless of the strength of the case. There is now a mounting body of evidence highlighting sharp falls in the numbers, bringing cases to employment tribunals, and the Law Society's statement is clearly based on that evidence. For the information of the chamber, we do know that there has been a reduction in total cases of 65 per cent in Scotland when comparing the three-month period in January, March 2014, with the same period in 2013. For that same period, six discrimination cases in Scotland fell by 84.6 per cent, race discrimination cases fell by 50 per cent and disability discrimination cases fell by 47.3 per cent. Those figures tell us that there is a great many people out there now unable to access the justice that they should be entitled to receive. To ask the Scottish Government when it last met representatives of COSLA and what issues were discussed. The Scottish Government meets frequently with representatives of COSLA to discuss shared policy interests. In addition, the Minister for Local Government and Community Empowerment and I meet COSLA on a bi-monthly basis to discuss issues of mutual concern. I thank the cabinet secretary for that answer. We know that the political posturing over leaving COSLA has seen civil war break out between Labour councils. Two of the councils have U-turned in an initial decision to leave COSLA, with Western Bartonshire saying, we want to remain part of the organisation which provides a national voice for local government in Scotland. Unfortunately, Glasgow's still not changed its mind about leaving. Could the cabinet secretary tell me what he considers could be the impact in the people of Glasgow if this Labour council chose not to follow Inverclyde in Western Bartonshire and reconsidering the original decision to leave COSLA? Membership of COSLA is a matter for individual councils and all councils that remain members of COSLA at the present time and we continue to discuss shared policy interests with COSLA. I wouldn't dare interfere in internal matters. To ask the First Minister if the Scottish Government will consult with the local authority members and non-members of COSLA on an equal basis regarding national policy. Absolutely, we are more than happy to discuss all of these matters in a very inclusive manner, as always. To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to protect people who serve the public from abuse or violence at work. Minister of Health, wheelhouse. All workers, including those who serve the public, deserve protection from abuse and violence. That is why Scotland's justice system provides for protection for all workers under our common laws of assault, threatening and abusive behaviour and breach of the peace. We fully support our police, prosecutors and courts in dealing robustly with people who offend against public-facing workers. In addition, the Scottish Government provides financial support to the Scottish Business Resilience Centre, who work with employers to help put in place measures to help to keep members of staff safe from abuse and violence while at work. The Regulatory Reform Act 2014 also introduced additional provisions to extend protection to SIPA officers in the conduct of their duties. Hugh Henry. Thank you, Presiding Officer. Warn words, but no commitment to actually do anything from the minister. Also some indication of double standards. Can the minister tell us why the Scottish Government believes quite rightly that emergency workers need specific protection? Why the solicitor general believes that victims of domestic abuse need specific protection, but that workers who are assaulted at work do not need specific protection? Minister. I just outlined in my original answer to the member that we have taken action in the 2014 Regulatory Reform Act to protect front-line workers from SIPA, so the point that was made about us not taking action and just having worn words is entirely false. I would also say that we do recognise the issue that the member raised about emergency workers. We support the views offered by the Crown Office about the difference between emergency workers and public-facing workers. The Lord Advocate Colin Boyd QC at the time of the Emergency Workers Act in parliamentary debates in relation to emergency workers, Scotland Bill in 2004, and said the following. It's completely unacceptable that anyone should be the subject of assault or abuse at work. We want to make sure that law is an effective tool in ensuring the safety and welfare of emergency workers and all public service workers. The legislation is not the answer in every case. In some situations, the best possible solutions lie with an existing law. I'm firmly a view that this is true for the protection of public service workers. We take the issue seriously, but the existing laws can be enforced, as I said earlier, in terms of the offences of assault, offensive behaviour and breaches of peace. That's what we intend to do. Question 6. Jenny Marra. To ask the Scottish Government what it is doing to assist business start-ups. The Scottish Government is committed to providing the economic environment to enable businesses to start up and thrive. Support ranges from our competitive business rates package, advice and assistance for entrepreneurship and innovation, delivered through our enterprise agencies, the business gateway and through other channels, investment in infrastructure and international assistance. The latest official statistics published by ONS in November 2014 showed that there were 21,540 new businesses registrations in Scotland in 2013, which was an increase from 17,385 in 2012. That represents a 23.9 per cent increase over the last year, taking the business birthrate to a record high. Jenny Marra. I thank the cabinet secretary for his answer. I saw his press release heralding this progress. However, the main cities in Scotland show a bit of disparity. Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow are the main cities in Scotland. They are the main cities in Scotland. Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow are consistently in the top five for business start-ups, but my home city of Dundee languishes in the bottom third of this table consistently for business start-up. What will the cabinet secretary do to put additional support into Dundee to encourage economic growth? Cabinet secretary. I don't know why Jenny Marra is so desperate to consistently talk down achievements in the city of Dundee. In the city of Dundee, 28.8 per cent increase in business start-ups between 2012 and 2013 was a higher increase in the business birthrate than for the whole of Scotland, which was 23.9 per cent, as I have just said to Parliament. It is beyond me why Jenny Marra is so determined, question by question, to talk down the achievements of the city of Dundee, delivering a faster increase than the rest of Scotland. Of course, the Government is committed through all the interventions we take through the delivery of our enterprise agency support through Scotland, through the work of the business gateway which is undertaken, through the support. I have just this morning been at the launch of some new initiatives with the Prince's Trust, who deploy support to new business start-ups, the length of birth of Scotland, including in the city of Dundee. All of those are measures that the Government will support, and our can-do entrepreneurship framework is attracting international attention as a successful strategy in encouraging business birthrate improvement, and I do hope that it attracts some support from Jenny Marra in the period to come. Linda Fabiani. Thank you, Presiding Officer. Does the Cabinet Secretary agree with me on the importance of small businesses to all our local communities? Does he therefore think that anyone wishing to start a new business should be given every support from both national and local government? Does he further agree that this is an element of the work of the East Kilbride Task Force which should be treated very seriously? Cabinet Secretary? Yes, and for the reasons that Linda Fabiani has outlined, the Government has prioritised support for small business through the maintenance of the most competitive approach to small business taxation in the United Kingdom through the small business bonus scheme. In addition to that, the Government works very closely with Business Gateway ensuring that companies at a local level in all localities can have access to the support of the enterprise network. I know that in East Kilbride where there have been economic challenges that have to be addressed by the East Kilbride Task Force that I certainly hope that this will be given the due priority at local level to ensure that every business development opportunity that can be taken forward in what has been an essential part of the business growth environment in Scotland in East Kilbride over many years is continued in the future. John Scott Thank you, Presiding Officer. The cabinet secretary will be aware that many personal licence holders in the licence trade have not had their personal licences renewed recently. That is inhibiting small businesses and business start-ups. Can the cabinet secretary, in conjunction with his colleague Paul Wheelhouse, seek a change in the legislation that is currently denying individuals their right to work in existing and new businesses? That is a huge problem. John Scott If Mr Scott will forgive me, I will explore in some detail the issues that he has raised today. If he would care to write to me about that, I will certainly ensure that it is given to me. The committee will have heard the comments that were made about the licensing system. We will certainly explore whether there is anything within the responsibility of the Government that it can be taken forward. Obviously, licensing decisions are invariably taken by local authority level through licensing boards, but we will explore the issues that Mr Scott has raised with me today. Question 7, Angus MacDonald. To ask the Scottish Government what discussions it has had with on the use of organophosphate products by farmers and crofters in the 1980s and 90s. Minister Morrie Watt As background the committee on toxicity published a statement on organophosphates on 13 March 2014. That followed a comprehensive systematic review of peer-rewed research on exposure to organophosphates that was published up to September 2013. It concluded that exposure to this chemical do not cause significant long-term neurological toxicity in adults. The review took account of extensive peer-reviewed journals on the use of and exposure to organophosphates by those in the agricultural sector. It would appear that independent scientific evidence over many years, including the latest independent statement published this year, has identified no risk to human health from the appropriate use of organophosphates and sheaped it. To date, the Scottish Government has not had discussions with the UK Government. However, I would be willing to raise this issue with my counterpart in the UK Government if substantive new evidence emerges. Angus MacDonald I note the minister's reply, however. She will be aware of the continuing concerns among some farmers, crofters and agricultural workers exposed to organophosphates through compulsory sheep dipping and application of pesticides in the 1980s and 90s. She will also be aware of the calls to attend an inquiry on the issue, including full disclosure of any UK Government documents that could shed light on how hundreds of farmers and crofters have suffered ill health over the years. Will she join me in backing those calls as there are still too many unanswered questions regarding the possible links between exposure to OPs and ill health amongst the farming community? Minister? Yes, as a farmer's daughter, I'm well aware of the calls. The issue of the impact of organophosphates is complicated and controversial, and I understand that there are calls for this down-house south. As I've said, I'm happy to meet the member and indeed other members who may have constituents who believe they have been adversely affected by organophosphates. Question 8, in the name of Jackie Baillie, has not been lodged. The member has provided me with an explanation. Question 9, Colin Kear. To ask the Scottish Government what improvements will be made to commuter rail services into Edinburgh as a result of awarding the franchise to Beilio, which is due to take effect from April 2015. Minister? Derek Mackay? The next franchise will build on existing improvements by delivering new trains and hand services and improved facilities. Within their bid, Beilio will recognise the need to increase train capacity throughout the country and have included plans to introduce 17 new electric trains in and out of Edinburgh by more than 20 per cent on peak services by 2018. Colin Kear? Thank the minister for his answer. He may be aware that many of my constituents who used a many in south Gail railway stations and who, over the years, have had to deal on occasions with shorting the three from six carriage trains resulting in overcrowding or passengers being left at the stations as well as extremely old rolling stock being used on a regular basis. Will the minister ensure that Beilio is aware of the past shortcomings and ensure that they are addressed after the April takeover? Yes, I will. To assist, Beilio is obliged to fit 30 per cent of trains with passenger counting equipment that will allow them to monitor patronage levels more accurately. That in turn will enable them to deliver through its franchise obligations to focus capacity on the train fleet. Generally, capacity issues are focused on. There are penalties, and we will strengthen that relationship with the operator to address any overcrowding and crowding issues that present themselves in the new franchise. Will the minister welcome the Smith commission's recommendations on more rail powers and would he acknowledge that postponing the decision on a Beilio could have seen improvements via the public sector and what are the prospects now for a public sector run in the future? Of course, the Scottish Government has been consistent in having those powers if only the Labour Party had been consistent in having those powers. Then maybe we could have made different decisions to the decisions that we have made, but we will now enter this franchise in good faith, get the best deal for Scotland and look to the future in terms of our options. We will welcome the new powers to Scotland, but if previous and successive Governments had taken different choices completely differently. To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to alleviate the planned disruption to Glasgow Edinburgh rail services in summer 2015. Minister, Derek Mackay. Network rail are working closely with ScotRail to ensure that the route electrification work happening between now and the introduction of the first Edinburgh to Glasgow electric services in December 2016 is delivered with the minimum of disruption to the travelling public and that services and connections are maintained throughout. We understand the Winchborough tunnels being closed between 13 June and 27 July and trains will be diverted via Domene, then they will have to reverse. Some journeys are expected to take up 50 per cent longer and some trains may have to be cancelled. Meantime thousands of fans will be heading to the open golf championship at St Andrews. Surely for ScotRail as a matter of emergency, it should be contemplating express services and of appropriate special golf excursion trains via some of the alternative rail lines between Glasgow and Edinburgh. Minister. Of course we will work very closely with everyone to try and minimise the impact on the network but with such a major programme of investment and improvement some disruption is inevitable and I think that's why working with Network Rail and others will be taking place during the summer months. We will make sure that it sticks as close to time as possible and we will work to get information out there and minimise the impact on any national event and we will work closely with the new franchise to make sure that we can support the event as mentioned as best we can. This will be a massive investment overall into the line electrification and wider improvements. It will involve disruption but it will be worth it and we will do everything we can to minimise the impact on the travelling in public as we improve rail services right across the country. Thank you. We move to First Minister's Questions. Question number one, Kezia Dugdale. Do you ask the First Minister what engagement

Hello friends. I'm Sanjay Gupta. I welcome you on Sanjay Gupta Tech School. In this video, I'm going to demonstrate you about lookup relationship in Salesforce. Before starting, let me show you how you can search on YouTube, search my name. My channel will be there. You can follow it to watch various Salesforce related videos. Now, in this video, I'm going to demonstrate you about lookup relationships. So I'm searching for existing objects. So I'm going to create lookup relationship on employee. So lookup relationship can be created through a custom field so you can click on new to create a custom field. And here you can see the option is available as lookup relationship. So first understand this what lookup relationship is. So here you can read the description. It says creates a relationship that links this object to another object. So it means if you want to link two objects, then you can create lookup relationship. So we are going to create lookup relationship on employee and we can link it with another object. So in this demonstration, I'm going to link employee with account object. So whether it says the relationship field allows users to click on a lookup icon to select a value from a pop up list. So this lookup relationship will create a field and their lookup icon will be available. And if you click on that icon, the pop up list will appear and you can select the other object values as the other object is the source of the values in the list. So whenever you click on the lookup icon, it will show all the values or all the records that are available in the source object. So source object will be the account and a target will be the employee or you can say parent will be the account and child will be the employee. So now I'm going to create this lookup relationship field. I'm going to link it with account. So while creating employee record, we can select account as a lookup field value. So here API name will be account description and help text you can fill as per the requirement. Then this is the child relationship name that you can use. So you can read this help text the child relationship name is an internal reference and is used for integration purpose. Be careful when changing the child relationship name as it may affect existing integrations. So we will discuss about it in later videos. So let's not discuss it here because it is something different. Next is the option required. So if you want this field to be required while saving a particular record so you can check this checkbox. I'm making it unchecked because I don't want to make it require. Now, next is what to do if the lookup record is deleted. So whenever you are creating employee record, so you need to select account record for this lookup. So first thing what happens when you delete the selected account record. So there are two options. It will clear the value of this field. And second says, don't allow deletion of lookup record that's part of a lookup relationship. So if you choose second option, then you cannot delete the parent record that is part of this lookup relationship. If you choose the first option, then the parent can be deleted and the lookup relationship will be cleared out. Further it says you can't choose this option if you make this field required. So if we click on this option required, so you can see we cannot select this option. We will be having this option only because lookup field is required so it should have some value. So you cannot delete the parent record that is part of lookup relationship if it is checked. So right now I'm making it optional and selecting this option. Also, I'm not explaining lookup filter as of now. You can watch another video related to lookup filter to understand this. I'm making this field visible for all the profiles. Then it is saying, do you want to place this field or employee layout? Yes, I want. Now here it is asking for the related list. So account will be on the master side and employee will be on the child side. So on account layouts, a related list will be added automatically if we check these checkboxes. So account object has four layouts and we want this employee related list to be available on all four layouts. So I'm making these checkboxes as true or leaving it as it is so that related list will be up here. Now I'm clicking on save. So this way we created lookup field. Here you can see lookup to account. So lookup to account is created. Now we can create the records. So I'm opening this employer tab. So right now there's no records. So I'm going to create new one. I have to fill employee ID. Then I'm selecting country as India. CTS Delhi. Designation sales manager. This is the data. So here you can see this is the lookup relationship. So lookup is looking up to account. This is the label and this is the lookup icon. So it will open a new window from where you can select the account records. So I'm selecting a particular account record test email account and clicking on save. So this way I created employer record and that is having lookup to account. And account test email ACC record is linked with this record. Right now if you want to open this one so you can right click and open this in new tab. So this is the account record that is linked with that employee record. And if you scroll it down so at the bottom you will see the related list. So this is the related list that is added automatically because we selected the checkbox while creating the lookup. So this is the employer record that is linked with this account. So count is the parent and this employee is working as a child. Right now we need to see what happens when we delete this account record. Right. So I'm going to delete this. So the account is deleted. Now I'm refreshing it. You will see the account lookup is automatically blank out. Right. This is because we selected the radio button. Yeah, this one we selected this one. What to do if the lookup record is deleted so lookup record that is the account is deleted. So it is clearing the value of this field. Right now I'm selecting this one. Don't allow deletion of the lookup record that's part of a lookup relationship. And I'm clicking on save. Now I'm clicking on edit clicking on lookup icon and selecting. Another account record and saving it. Right. So I selected this one opening. So this is open now if I try to delete this one. So it will throw an error. First, let's check related list. So this record is having the employer record as related. And also notice that you can also create new employee record from here also. You can click here and you can create another one. You can see account is by default populated here and I'm clicking on save. So this time that account will be having two related records. Here you can see six or seven. Right. And if we see employee so here two records are available. Now what happens when I delete this account record. So I'm clicking on delete clicking on OK. You will see an error message is available here. It is saying you attempt to delete Burlington Textiles Corporation of America could not be completed because it is associated with the following employees. If the following table is empty. It is because you do not have access to the record restricted in the tape. Right. So this is because we selected the second radio button. This one. So now I hope you understood the difference between these two. What happens when we delete the parent record. So if you select the first option then that can be deleted. If you select the second option then parent record cannot be deleted. Right. So this way look up relationship works in Salesforce. By default it is optional and you can also make it required by selecting this checkbox. So I hope you understood how look up relationship works in Salesforce. If you want to watch more related videos you can search me on YouTube. Thank you for watching this video.

And then beat you going to the bucket. Hipkins a deep three off the heel of the rim grabbed by Porter. Caleb Martin pre-season player of the year in the Mountain West potting up on Holloway. Gets the bucket and the foul. You'll see him try to get underneath Caleb Martin. He uses speed and quickness. Caleb Martin technically a point guard, but he's more of a point forward. Sometimes he struggles when people get underneath him. That's a tough shot for Caleb Martin, but he makes it look easy. See how he's down in a stance. Really low in trying to get underneath Cody Martin. Porter puts down his dribble. Hard contact with Chapman and throws it down right in his face. The side Chapman turned 18 this summer. This is a they're playing against grown men. So Martin just four points yesterday, but that's Cody. But today and one for Caleb. Checked out for Furman on the baseline. This is a great move from Trey Thurman. He's got a youngster on him. Side Chapman faces him up. Shot fake sweeps to the baseline, uses the rim to block off the shot blocker and throws him a flex. Little shot fake, whoop, got you. You rise up, going to take you to the baseline. Trey Wood took a charge, got back up. Man, there's so much energy. From the wing, Cody Martin up court. Nifty dribbling gets by Diallo and finishes with the right. Time out. UMass left to sprint back up court. Not before. Make you pay. I mean, look up and we were talking about. Took over point guard duties last year. Been so instrumental. Caroline drops it in and the foul. Well, this is where Rashidah Holloway just struggles to move his feet. Porter puts down his dribble, going on again. That's the freshman and got him. That's twice, right in his face. He's going to get teed up, chirping at him on the way back. And that's what's going to get him. It's just not smart from Trey Porter's. It's a great move. And he had one. He likes dunking over that right shoulder. When you see the bigger lineup as they go back to Rashidah Holloway has been a foul magnet so far in this game. Now how long can he stay in the game with three fouls? This is hard to isolate it on Trey Thurman. Uh-oh. Yep, 1-T-1. Hopkins pulls it down. 14 point lead for the pack. Oh, here come the Wolfpack. Oh, my.

Welcome to Reader Syndicate 3.0, the next evolution of the look into counterculture that is Canada. My name is Matthew, owner of Riot Seeds, and this started as a one-man mission for strain history and breeding science. Over time, it's evolved into something bigger, better, and more of a team effort. We will be joined by members of the Cannaluminati and other friends throughout the season to hear their takes on grow techniques, breeding science, strain history, and more. Our mission is to combat the narrative that corporate cannabis and seed posers are obfuscating for their own financial benefit. Welcome to the Underground. We are The Syndicate. Welcome to Reader Syndicate. I'm Matthew, here with our co-host, Thousandfold, and today we're going to be talking to Patrick Pico. He's been a good friend of mine since I think we first met at Emerald Cup 2017 in person, and ever since we stayed in contact, and yeah, he's got a fascinating tale through the seed world and a lot of experience in the seed world, making seeds at scale and more. Thousand, you want to kick it off? Yeah, I guess first I wanted to ask everyone how their week has been. Fantastic. How's the new year? New year was great. Family man, so super mellow, which I'm grateful for, because otherwise I'd be feeling like shit right now and every day since the first. We did absolutely nothing. I like the slower pace these days. It's really gratifying, so it's been a great week. Do they celebrate New Year's in Kenya where you're from, Thousand? Yeah, it's traditional to just like stay up late and watch. And watch the balls drop. Yeah, it sounded like chaos, like straight up Vietnam where I'm at. Our city is very conservative, so fireworks have always been really big here, and like there's never really been any pushback on fireworks, despite it being desert and like lots of brush and things catching on fire every year. But yeah, it was, they were lighting off boom booms loud. I don't even want to say that word. Boom booms loud enough to shake windows like a mile around, setting off all the car. It was wild, so my big old Anatolian shepherd was on my lap the whole time, but yeah, and it's usually never fun. What happens if you get old, I guess? I don't know. We did have a whole bunch of fireworks out here. They allow those there? They do, yeah. Wow. That does surprise me a little bit. It's a bit of a wish of a climate, I guess. It's probably not as risky as it is for you guys, but still, you know. Do they allow like bottle rockets and like firecrackers, or is it just like the safe ones? It's the safe ones, I think, relatively, yeah. Yeah, it's weird where we're at in California too, because like they import, like you just go over the border over to Nevada and people bring back like M80s and like big old monster things and like there's no way to really rationalize like that, that legality, because especially with online now, anybody can get anything, anytime, anywhere. It's really opened up that market, you know? Yeah, I mean like you guys were talking about earlier before we started recording. I mostly feel sorry for all the animals. Yeah, you have to put up with it. Or even veterans with PTSD or... Yeah, dude, yeah. You know, that was something I hadn't really considered until later in life. And it's just like, especially after the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war and the guys come back, like that stuff isn't a joke to some of them. It really affects them. So yeah, people need to take more consideration to that if they really do care about the troops and all that. Okay, well, I thought maybe we could just ask Pico Patrick here a little bit about what he's been doing. Obviously, that's the whole point of the entire conversation, but maybe just a little brief thing on what he's been up to just recently and maybe touch a little bit on the Bank Seed Hub. Okay, yeah. So my most recent job is in Arizona. I left California last year. I got laid off at the end of the season, which I'm sure we'll get into a little bit. Just prices plummeting, unfortunately. We had a great year, but it is what it is. And through luckily some good networking, I was able to find a job relatively quickly. It was something I had kind of passed on earlier because I didn't want to give up. I was running an outdoor operation and didn't want to kind of give up in the middle of the season and go take a job somewhere. So circled back on that and currently doing that, which is in Arizona. It's a 100,000 square foot facility. We're doing indoor, which is a back to indoor for me. I hadn't been in that in a couple of years. So it's fun. It's extremely challenging. And like any other aspect of working with the plant, I just learn new things every single day. And that really drives me to just continue on this journey and keep going. So that's been the most recent iteration. Very nice. And yeah, you like you've told me and I've read your interview in Skunk Mag that you've obviously been working at scale for quite a while. Right. So that's going to be quite cool for us to get into later on. Yeah. I mean, we can we can talk about the bank if you want to. That was that was a really cool project. It's a good thing to segue into. So initially, when I got the job at the bank, I was kind of doing the same thing. I was out there looking for work. I had gotten a license in Sonoma County, had fall out with a partner, had to sell out of the building that we own at the time and the license and made a partnership with an extra company to do that. That partnership just just fell fell apart really, really quickly and ended up leaving that position and then was pretty much freelancing for a little while doing some sales and some other things in the industry and then was looking for work. So an outfit that I had interviewed with prior due to some others, some good networking and try to get in with as far as just a grower any job worker in their nursery ended up circling back on me and interviewing me for what they were looking for at the time, which was just someone who could come in, make seeds, grow seeds at scale. They were doing 32 acres the first year I was with them and they wanted to plant all of it from seed. So there was a series of depth crops that were getting planted and there was also a lot of auto flowers and we're talking like, you know, one farm would have 170,000 seeds twice a year. So massive, massive amounts. So the first part of the job was making all the seed, which I was tasked with. And in the interview, I told them, you know, I haven't done this at scale. I had only done one reversal prior and they wanted all them. And so it was like, I was very honest with them and telling them like, I know how to do this, but I've never done it at scale. And I was lacking a lot of confidence to say the least, but they basically were very supportive and told me, look, if you will come in and take this job and try it, we'll learn together, you know, and fair enough. And really, it all worked out really well. The reversals were extremely successful. And we made three million seeds in the first year. So at the rate of, you know, growing a couple hundred thousand a year and making millions in the first year, I had essentially somewhat worked myself out of that job because we made so many seeds. Can I ask you, just kind of to interrupt you and ask, what do you feel like you learned from this one? Oh my God, from that job? Yeah. I mean, the entire reversal process, I'm very analytical. I keep a lot of notes. I've used a lot of data. So, you know, for what we were doing with STS reversals, just the proper amount, tracking it per strain, tracking it per specific varieties and looking at lineages to see if there were going to be correlations with other strains I wanted to reverse and how successful or unsuccessful they would be, how many plants per seed you're going to get per square foot, you know, how big the receiver should be those timelines of staggering the donors and the receivers, what the ideal timeline is depending on those genetics and their finishing times and, you know, there's also a graph as far as for seed maturation, how long you want the seed to actually continue to mature and there's four, I believe there's four, like four data sets that they're looking for that all hit their peak at a different time. It's like the germination rate, the storage rate and there's two others, one's vigor and one's another one. So, ideal timelines to where you hit all of those at their peak before you start to basically get diminishing returns or if you overdo the seeds you'll have the crack shells, which obviously nobody wants to buy. You can still grow them. They germinate just fine, but nobody wants to buy those. Isn't that wild like that they still grow? Like, I remember what line was the first time I saw that, Bodie did it with, it was one of the G13 hash plant lines. Chem91 G13 hash plant was the first time I saw it and like he sent me a bunch and they were kind of cracked like, I think they still grow and they did, which blew my mind, you know, considering I thought air was getting in and going to dry it out, but they did crack pretty well, nobody wants to buy them. Yeah, nobody wants to buy them. I mean, honestly, they crack a little bit easier because there's the water will penetrate, you know, into the embryo right away, right? And then they don't have to actually break through the shell to get up above the surface, depending upon what substrate you're using, if you're using like, you know, little Excel plugs or something or rock, well, those things can be challenging. So it can make it easier, but yeah, nobody wants to buy those and they look like shit. So there's certain strains that just, that happens. And even when you take it to the number of days that you would want to go to for all of the other things that you're looking for in a great seed, you know, some strangers got to take them a week earlier, two weeks earlier, so that crack doesn't actually happen. It doesn't open. So learning things like that. Again, I was doing crop registration on all this acreage. So with that came a lot of other plant diagnosis that was happening. First time I saw a beet curly top virus, and last time, thank God, that was a tough one, you know. I couldn't have been able to identify that in cannabis. I've never seen that before. It was, it's very wild. And luckily it runs its course fairly quickly, like 30, 35 days and it's out of the plant. And it goes from wherever the bite site is up the plant is affected. Everything below and on any other branch is good. It doesn't affect it. So how many times it got bit by the leafhoppers that carry it will affect how terrible the plant is in yield and everything else. But I mean, it'll take a plant that's about to be 10 feet tall and, you know, seven feet around and turn it into a tiny little squat bush that is like two feet by two feet. Oh no. Yield impacts are tremendous. And you have it, you have it. You can't, there's, you know what I mean? It's going to run its course, but you're not going to get good viable, but off those branches and it hurt. That one hurt. So that was a great learning experience. Just everything at scale. I ended up running the farm ops on that, you know, with that outfit that the prior, or the next year rather, because I'd made all the seed and we didn't really need that as much anymore. So now it was just about growing the seed and running the farm ops. They liked what I did from a plant diagnosis standpoint. I took a lot of videos again, shared a lot of information, would give reports back on all the crops and where we were at with the acreage and then would try to map out the harvest plan, which was insane because, you know, if you're running that many acres, it's all ready at the same time. Yeah. And you need a place big enough to try it all. Like we were talking about another episode that people really don't take that consideration, especially when they're new. And like that is a major, major consideration. What do you dry it all? And if you're making seeds, how do you store it, dry it? And when the seeds start falling out bit by bit, like how do you catch them, identify with what plant? Yeah, there's so much that goes into that. Well, the seeds were made and kept in a totally different area. Like I had a 10 acre nursery that would be all seed production, nursery operations, cloning, seed making, everything was just in that nursery. So that was like independent. And then all of the growing acreage was elsewhere. And it was across multiple counties. So it was like putting a lot of miles on the car and doing a lot of driving, which was also awesome. I mean, it was like the ideal job. The fact that I had a job just to make seed was the coolest thing in the world to me. And it was like, I'll do whatever it takes to keep this job. That's a seed maker's dream to be able to grow at scale, pop a bunch of stuff that you want to see and get paid to do it. I've never found that. And I've been doing this a long time and that is something special. It's not something for those listening that aren't really that keen on what goes on in the seed business. It's not a common thing to be offered that kind of job. So it is special. Definitely. Yeah, I don't know anyone else had it before since. Nope. Nope. So I was super lucky to be in that position and right place, right time. Networking has been so important and everything that I've been able to do. I mean, just with you, you know, like even being in this chat right now is because of good networking and keeping relationships. So with that job, with its unique challenges and with what we basically want, I had to put any of my ego and any of my prior work kind of to the side. I was working for someone else. I had to fulfill what they wanted. What would sell for them wasn't necessarily the stuff that I was making. And so for those years that I was with them, I was really doing a lot of OPW, which is other people's work, which I was fine with. Because again, I had my dream job. So who cares? I'll make it right. I'll go do crop reg and I'm still doing the work. So it was all good from my perspective. So with that, the challenge that we had was genetics, sourcing genetics, always having good genetics and always having the next thing. The way I was doing it, the way I was being asked to do it was using other people's work from the previous season or the previous cuts that had come in and mixing and matching and doing all that kind of shit. And it was always catering to a very thick market that wants something new all the time. Yep. So with that, there's no actual line breeding or learning. You're not really getting heritability of traits and the things that are really interesting except for the auto flower work, which was probably one of the greatest learning experiences because of that. Oh, yeah. Definitely. So with that, I started the Bank Seed Hub with the partner who was the owner of the company, which the idea that was so many great breeders who had amazing brands already had been left out of legalization for one reason or another. Whether it was they were in a garage and they were never going to get the zoning correct to be able to have their seeds enter the market. This is before the 2018 Farm Bill. So there was still a lot of very, very gray area as far as how anybody would get seeds anywhere on this scale and two facilities that were being opened up across the country that were totally legal and compliant, so to speak. So with that, I started the Bank Seed Hub and the idea of that was to basically be a conduit or a bridge to all these other amazing breeders who were out there to come to this 10 acre facility, make your seeds here, or give us the plans, tell us what you want us to do. I'll make the seeds for you. We will sell them back to you at a certain price if you like. If you want to go hit the market with them, we'll grow out a shitload of them as many as you possibly want us to grow out so that we can do the crop registration, phenohuns, and keep building for the next season and basically just offer the resources that we had to all the amazing breeders who were already out there. So that was the whole idea with the Bank Seed Hub. It worked for what it was designed for, but as you guys know, many of these breeders are very hard to kind of get in with. They're very guarded. If I come with an opportunity like that from someone that they don't know and have enough business with before, it's going to be very skeptical in which it was. I had to develop relationships first with the people that I knew and had relationships with that I thought would be a good jumping off point. And from that, I knew that in the short term, it would quickly kind of start to snowball and grow. And I think if we had another year or two, we would have seen that really start to come around table, kind of coalition of breeders. What I envisioned and I called it was the Sunday Mass, which was the Mutual Admirations Society of Seedmakers. And we would all be together. Someday we would come together and we would be able to form this group where everybody is gaining in the same amount. We take away the competitive element a little bit, even the playing field. And then we could have a very real brick and mortar or some type of actual bank where all the brands represented, all the breeders are there. It's all 100% legal and compliant. We can do business with anyone we want to do business with. You know, that was the whole idea. I just wanted to say that we've heard different, heard of different people's attempts or initiatives to collectivize in different ways. Like so we've heard from Little Hill, Matt obviously with the Breeders Syndicate and now you with this. And it's interesting, like each of you has a slightly different take on collectivization, but it's super cool to see and hear about. Again, it's not common for Breeders to even get along to accomplish a goal like that. So it is something that takes years and years and years to build with trust. And yeah, you're well on your way. Everybody's got a little like bone to pick with everybody else it seems. Yeah. Myself included. Yeah, right. I mean, some others with you as well. Yeah. And you know, it is what it is, but things change quite a bit when you all are in the same room together. When you're all physically talking and have the same goal in mind or the same thing to gain. A lot of that ego gets stripped away and things become what they should be about, which was about the plant, about sharing, about the community, you know, and just about weed. That's what it should be about. So the last thing that we did with the Bank Seed Hub in the last year, things were pulled back quite a bit. We did a lot more from Cologne and we're running less and less of the seed. And so I did an acre hunt and I got like five or six friends that all had fenn seeds to throw in with me. And we did an acre that was just going to be all of us together. It didn't really work out the way I wanted with being able to produce some content, give ready on site. Everybody has different schedules. People had moved. It was harder for them to get back to California to kind of see the work. So I was documenting it all and trying to share it as much as possible. But that was like the beginning of the fruition of all the goals to have even half a dozen breeders that would throw their work in together. And then if I could have gotten them all together to that site, you know, then we're viewing each other's work and like making selections together and picking out the little nuances of what we liked about this cross or that cross or, you know, whatever. That was really what I envisioned. And we almost got there at the end. But like I said, California ended up, you know, prices of outdoor went down to like sub 500 and it was a total shit show. And when you got to pay excise tax and you got to pay all these other insane bills. I mean, the County of Sonoma was like just trying to really bend us over and just hit us for these ridiculous fines all the time. And just crazy shit, constantly crazy shit from them. So I unfortunately was let go from that position and had to, you know, do the new thing. So it was great while I lasted and the idea is still there. The dream is still there. I hope that I can continue to kind of see that mission through and exciting that where I'm at in Arizona they're giving me pretty much carte blanche to do any genetics I want we're doing massive seed hunts there. So I just filled a room with 2,500 plants all from seed. There's six different varieties. So we got a couple hundred of each one going. That's going to be the first like big phenohunt project on that site. And then I am doing a reversal in the greenhouse right now, which should net quite a few seeds. So really exciting projects. And then I hope to kind of be able to bring other folks back into that fold and continue the same idea and offer that space. Like now I have indoor space, which is one of the biggest complaints about the Bank Seed Hub was we were doing all outdoor. Nobody wanted to take pictures and content of their outdoor flower because for whatever reason they think it's bad or they can't sell seeds with it. But now I have the basically the same idea that I think I can replicate bring it inside and hopefully make, you know, a mutual admiration and a mutually beneficial group of people that would want to take play can take part in that. And for the company I'm working for, it's all good for them too because they're getting access to all these genetics and all these different things for their sales that, you know, they wouldn't otherwise have or they'd have to pay for or whatever. Absolutely. Yeah, you let us know if we can help in any way. You know, obviously we have a platform of sorts and have a certain kind of reach so you should just hit us up if you can think of anything that we can help with. Yeah, I definitely like to deliver completed ideas. So it's in the works. Let me continue to work on the mission right now and make sure that We want it now, bro. Yeah, yeah. I have to make sure that I can execute and be successful for everyone else, you know, before I can, before I can really just open up the floodgates. But that is the long term goal. So, you know, if anybody's interested in having those conversations, I certainly am. Very nice. I'm sure you're working, you know, your previous gig working on that scale probably forced you to systematize a lot, right? Oh, yeah. I always have, though. I'm, operations are a big, just part of my flow with anything with the part. So I'm very, yes. Yeah. Okay. Well, I thought we could kind of go backwards in time a bit and maybe you could talk to us about what the early period for you was like making season growing. You know, what drew you to those things? How did you get into it to begin with and how did you learn about those things? Well, so I'm from Ohio originally and in Ohio, the first grow kind of group that I was a part of, they were growing all from seed. So there was no clones, none of that was even happening. And it was all DJ Short, Sensi, just a bunch of old school stuff, White Widow, Blueberry, Super Silver Haze and with that, with that early sort of introduction like seeds were the first thing for me. You know, so when I ended up returning back to them around like 2010 or so, it was like a, it was like a homecoming. It was like, Oh, this is the way we were always supposed to do it. You know, we like kind of lost sight for a while. So those early days back in Ohio, all from seed, everything was selected in-house. And it was just because it was a very close group and didn't want anybody to know what the hell we were doing. Didn't have friends that had clones and probably wouldn't have, you know what I mean? Like was parked the car like two miles away and carrying grow equipment down the street. Seemed like a better idea than parking your car after Green Merchant, right? So it was like, I'll carry this fucking light and these ballots and everything else and try to make it in one trip, which was ridiculous just to not have my license plate in front of that store. So that was kind of the, you know, that was kind of the viewpoint and it was very, it was very stigmatized in Ohio in my area, even from my close friends who are now are totally cool that it was, it was still like, I was kind of off to the side on my own a little bit. So anyways, from there, I ended up, one of the guys who was part of that group who was really just more of a, he was more of a scammer kind of, he was more like just in it for the money part. He didn't, kind of guy. Yeah, he didn't even really smoke weed. I mean, you know, he didn't eventually, but he's like the reason that people shouldn't smoke weed in my opinion. He just got to like out of pocket and was doing stupid shit and acting a fool and he didn't have around anybody. But that was his whole thing was just sort of like, I'm just trying to make money, you know, which was fine too, because it gave me a job. So I ended up moving out to the Bay Area to do some trim work for him and just help out because it was exploding. And at the time that the OG Pounds were 58, 57 down in LA. So it was like, fuck yeah, I was getting paid a shitload just to come and trim just because he didn't want to have to hire some randos to come trim and he's reliable people. So relocated from Ohio to California to do that. And everything was from clone. So from there, we're growing OG, snow cap, blue dream, Blackberry Kush, Nightshade, you know, some other random stuff and eventually that whittled down to like, you know, maybe 10% anything but OG, you know, and everything was OG all from clone and that was flow for a long time, you know, and everything was going to LA. And what year was this? This was, I moved out to California 2007. So right around there, 2007 through 2012 or so, that's pretty much what we were doing. And then what became pretty apparent, like, you know, right away was if we, it was always like, oh, we need the next OG cut, you know, now we need Skywalker, now we need King Louis, now we need this, now we need that. And it was like, well, we can just get this from like, we can just go backwards by the seed, make selections and have something totally unique that nobody else has. Yep. And that's where I was starting to look in other lines because OG was really boring at that point because it was like, that's all we fucking grew. That's all I see. It was splitting hairs between the cuts and a lot of people don't realize, like some of them, they could be the same cut with just two different names. So I get real boring. 90%, 90% of them were the same cuts and it was just little conditional differences from environment that would really change, you know, the appearance or what was expressing in the plant was more so based on the environmental changes based on these people's grow rooms and how they built them, which is kind of an interesting thing, like your signature is kind of in your grow room. It's kind of an interesting concept. Yeah. But yeah, it was just really boring. So I was like, fuck, I need these flavors. I was in love with the banana flavor. I had banana OG. I wanted to find that in a seed form. I couldn't get a cut anywhere. So I went to seeds and I think some of the first seeds that I bought when I was in California were off of seed bay, you know, started with some of that Dutch growing stuff, like the one that we talked about, that's the pre-roll that I gave you, that was that super number. I still talk about that. I still talk about it. When people ask about banana stuff, like, and I did a lot of banana work myself. So I've got a pretty good working knowledge of that line and how it breeds, but that was exceptional. And people ask me about banana flavors. I'm like, well, there was one very specific one that was the most extreme banana bread Terps that it was just unmistakable. That would smell bad. And that was like a seven-weeker. It was like, and the Ogre 99 was made probably years prior and probably not kept in great condition. So by the time I even got those seeds, it was like, they were probably, I don't know, five years old, six years old. I don't know when she made them, but they were old and only two germinated. So the one was a female, one was a male. He has 11. That one female was what I called the banana 99 cut that was just the most phenomenal banana, seven-weeker, yielded the fucking beautiful plant. Perfect. I don't love the odds on that. I know, I know not only that, but then I used the male because I'm like, well, there might be some banana in this guy too. So I used the male in my earliest breeding work just to try to continue that. And he put out amazing work. I mean, that's still the backbone of what I grow today and what I breed today in those lines is still rooted in that Ogre 99 cut and the male from that pack. Those are still like the basuses. And then I had some, what was the other one? Sweet tooth number three from, I think deluxe had done a remake or something. I got that because I was just fucking head over heels for the tangerine haze that came from the devil's harvest crew. Oh yeah. Oh my God, that plant was so amazing. It was like nobody, the flavor was just unbelievable with the tangerine. NYCD G13 haze? Yep, exactly. And it was like, the flavor was so fucking good and the high was extremely up, extremely zippy and up. And everybody who smoked it who was looking for like a downer, couch-lucky weed, hated it because it didn't do that. But I had a very specific experience where I was down in LA vending. I'd always go to Malibu to first point to go surfing. I had smoked some OG with my buddy. He had come down there with me and we were just like fucking floored, you know, after a day of surfing in the ocean it was like already kind of drained and then we smoked this OG. And it was like, I was like, oh my God, I'm so fucking lethargic. And then I remember smoking the tangerine haze after that and being like whoop right back to like just, you know, cognitive, lucid, everything was fucking good again. And I was like, this is the fucking, like this is more powerful than that OG. It's just a completely different effect that you're not feeling from like a sober to high state. But it's like, if I was already high and too low, man, that thing brought me right back. I'm like, this is fucking amazing. So that was, that was a magical one, but I used the sweet tooth to try to like preserve that flavor as much as possible. So those were the two earliest breeding project. I did really was using the banana ogre and I mail and I made F twos, but I did all sorts of other work with him and then trying to preserve the tangerine haze as much as possible by using the sweet tooth F two, the sweet tooth number three F two, which I don't know how many times that's in crossed, but that was pretty much the earliest stuff and the results were fantastic. So be it, be it luck, be it whatever, like we got fucking great plans from every single thing that got touched by the pollen and nobody was really complaining at that time until I accidentally seated an entire room. And then, and then I got a little pushback on them. That's when they stop liking seeds as much as when they see the entire room. That's exactly when they stop liking seeds so much. At that point they got referred to as art projects. And I was no longer. Which is honestly what ended up being the impetus for me leaving that outfit and starting my own thing was based 100% on that. I was like, well, this is the ticket. Like we got to keep doing this. And they're like, no, we got to do none of that and just go back to growing blue dream. And I was like, all right, this I have a different vision. I have a different vision than what I do. So that's when I kind of broke off on my own and left, you know, the safe haven of a very tight knit friends group that I had and had moved across the country for and everybody that was working with us at the time was from Ohio for the most part. So that was sort of the impetus for leaving that group was the souring of popping seeds for them. You know, not for me collateral damage, man. We just ended up with more seeds. Yeah. I mean, she didn't even complain. That's a, that's a plug. Right. Right. I wanted to take a little tangent here and want to throw this bone to Matt as well, which is the forums you mentioned, I think, in one of in that interview in Skunk Mag that the forums played quite a big part in your early stages. Definitely. And a great, great point to mention or a great place to mention that. So that was really, I was on IC Mag, the guy that I had initially learned from whose nickname is cool white, by the way, which I fucking love because you, he burned down a house by not putting an anchor in a light and putting it up in drywall and burnt down. Oh my God. So when he went to jail, all the guys in jail called him cool white because of the lights. I like that. So anyway, he'll probably love that. Shout out cool white. Super ego maniacal guy. So he'll definitely enjoy that. Oh yeah. Here's his name for sure. Yeah. Yeah. But so he was on overgrow. He was big on overgrow. I'm sure he was an asshole because he was an asshole in real life. So I can only imagine how bad he was on overgrow. But I was on IC Mag mostly because of the seed bay linkage. And that's just where I was buying seeds. So I was super paranoid still, you know, the same mentality had followed me through and was a lurker. I would like put my fucking laptop on private mode and maybe go somewhere else. That wasn't my regular IP address. Go even surf it and look around on IC Mag. But yeah, watching some of the threads on IC Mag, especially the Jack Mayhoff or stuff, which I think is Ivan, right? Yes. And it was like the early cocoa beds that they were doing. And you're referring to Jungle Boys Ivan for the people who don't know. Right. Yeah. Jack Mayhoffer. So Jack Mayhoffer's threads were epic as far as just like scale growing and what they were doing now, or what they were doing then, they don't do it all now. But my idea and sort of what I was following was fully soil organic growing, living soil. And so his idea of these giant beds in your room was just like right in tune with what I was trying to do. So I use the tech that he was kind of providing on IC Mag and all the other information about nutrition and living soil and all the other stuff that was available on there and really just ran with it. But it gave me a lot of confidence to kind of know what to try and learn from other people's failures, especially. And that was quintessential. And then so much stray knowledge. And now I really, I haven't gone on there in so long, but just so much information. And the thing was that all the bullshitters got called out. That was the great thing. We don't have that anymore. Like Instagram is such a step backwards from the sharing of information because. Agreed. And I don't think Twitter does it either. I'm not on Twitter, but I would imagine that doesn't do it either. But the power is in the words, the words or the knowledge, the pictures support the words, but the words are where it's at on Instagram. It's totally different. It's just the facade. Here's what it looks like. The words are almost meaningless. You throw a couple of emojis up there. And then, you know, Q conversations that are also meaningless, which is usually just a circle. Instagram for me is kind of just such a huge step back. It's a necessary platform. I think it's the only one that we really have, but it's just such a step backwards as far as like sharing information and sharing reality because none of it is steeped in reality whatsoever. I think, I think that's a common sentiment too. Among people who've been around and made it through the forum era and stuff, being able to have that in that kind of community and then going to Instagram, it's just totally, it's a night and day difference. And it's actually pretty depressing. Yeah, it is. I mean, I just appreciate it was policed a lot better. Yeah. You know, and I don't know. It was just, it was just, it was generally really solid information. You can kind of tell what wasn't and what was, but generally really solid. And if you needed verification of a cut or something, you could get it pretty easily and, or people will just call you out and tell you how fake your shit is, which also can be valuable just to know. Yeah, all right. So they're like, I see mag was really, really awesome. I really enjoyed it. And the first kind of the first few people that I met up with and you know, it became like in real life friends with were from IC mag too. And that was cool because that sort of opened up more of the networking gateway to like sharing information, getting stuff, you know, sharing weed, sharing concentrate, sharing tech, sharing opportunities, you know, that all of those things really came along with IC mag. So I'm super grateful for that form and all the forms that proceeded it as well. Yeah. Are you going to jump on the can of Kibana? Now that it's all opened up. I will. Yes. Unfortunately, time is so restrictive for me right now between the job and the kids that it's just, I just have the time. Yeah. I don't have the time to do it. I don't even have time to smoke as much as I'd like, honestly, or a place to do it. I'm in my kids room right now. I was telling 1000 full before it's like the only place I can get away. It's quiet and not in the garage looking depressing. Yeah. So I just don't have the time for it right now. I wish I did, but I'm so, I mean, I'm in my own forum world, so to speak in the, in what we're doing because the 100,000 square foot is perpetual. I've got nine different grow rooms that are all going at the same time. And they're all a week apart. So I can see very much the entire like week one through nine of what's happening in a room at all times, which is really cool to just try to digress and, and kind of make my new changes and see the results of those types of things. So I just get so much value out of that that I don't really go to the forums quite as much anymore. It was really a little bit of a crotch, a lot of information. And now it's because it's, there's so little activity there. It just wouldn't be as valuable for the things I would probably use it for today, which would be more like verification of cuts and, you know, provenance and things like that. And we have our discord too, where we can all jam on that, which is really nice. I mean, that's been, that's been a great thing. Honestly, the discord has been awesome. And I've, and that's been the main type of forum thing that I've interacted with in the last six years. I think I've been on that thing now with. Yeah. Yeah. I remember messaging, messaging Denali the night I was in the hospital and he just turned five. So. That's wild. Wild. Yeah. Wait, so did you two cross over on the forums? No. No, we met at Emerald Cup in 2017. Yeah. So I remember exactly how we started talking. You had said something on a post. I posted something at the time I had, my company was called the moody. And I was running that Instagram. And your bio had a stone roses. Yeah. And I love the stone roses. And so few people know about the stone roses that I was like, he's already in me. I fucking love that dude. Yeah. The first time I sent you something, I sent it to cinnamon girl. Oh, that's right. So wild. Yeah, dude. Yeah. Nobody even listens to them anymore. Yeah. They're the best man. Music and weed. Those are the unifiers. Those are the things for me that I've always like brought people and made friends has been like, if there's two ice breakers for me, it's music and weed. And those have always been true even to this day. Yeah. For sure. For sure. I still use that quote. I think it's in my profile still to this day. I figured you were cool when I saw that man. It creeps people out though. Like, cause they don't get that it's a quote from stone roses song. It just sounds like I'm an evil Satanist. Even though. I can. I can hang with it. Anything else on the forums? No, I enjoy. I wish I would have done more. Honestly. I was more of a lurker. I wish I would have interacted more with people and I wish they were still as used as they are today. Yeah. I mean, going back to what you guys are talking about between say the forums and Instagram or Twitter, the architecture, you know, obviously lends itself to different things. So on Instagram and Twitter, it's very hard to sustain a conversation for more than a few days, right? Because it just disappears into the timeline, the abyss of noise. And you're so limited on what you can say. It's not like you can really express yourself very well, kind of like Twitter. You know, you're limited to a certain amount of character sets and people don't want to read long sentences. So you'll find that most people just respond to the first few things you say or the image and not read what you wrote. So there's a lot of miscommunication that goes on. Yeah. And it feels like also people are encouraged to like spit out zingers, like, you know, witty one-liners and stuff rather than actually a thoughtful, you know, articulation of anything. Yeah. It's just about like your reflexive knee-jerk reactions. Yeah. All the time. I definitely agree with you. I definitely enjoyed the linear nature of the forums because I would wake up in the morning, go back to wherever I left off, catch up on all that, you know, the chit chat, whatever was going on, and just follow along with the conversations. So I enjoyed the linear nature. Once it got, it got ridiculous to a point. I remember the Slow Nickel Lounge had like 800 pages or something and it was like, holy shit, I went to bed and then we were at like 528. I wake up or at like 600 and something. I'm like, holy shit. I can't even catch up. So I guess there's a downside to it too. When it gets too much use. Yeah. But yeah, I missed the forums, man. I really liked that. That was a good, that was a good time. San Diego's finest got so big, they had to blow it up into like a second and third, I think now it might just still be on second. But yeah, that was one of my favorites. Yeah. When threads become their own forums. Yeah. Right. And they walk it at a point. Yep. Well, I thought we could kind of segue to Pico's. I mean, obviously Pico, you've talked about some of the work that you've done yourself. You talked about the banana stuff. Can you tell us a bit more about some of your own recent work? You know, nightcap, hazes. Yeah. So, um, so from that initial project with the older 99, I crossed out to Blackberry Kush, which was a staple for us at the time. And from those found some really cool plants. I called it Gargamel. It was an interesting plant. Nothing like too crazy, but it had a very, very good look, got great color, had good flavor. It was kind of like pretzel dough with like a hint of licorice on the back end, which I really, really liked. And then, um, I ended up getting a cut from a buddy that was supposed to be Gorilla Glue 4. I checked it on the forums, you know, I hit up that, that group and I think Marlowe was the dude's name who called me out and told me that's bullshit. That's not Gorilla Glue 4. And I was like, well, whatever it is, it's fucking awesome. And it might be better than Gorilla Glue 4. Cause like, I never even experienced anything like this. That one, we ended up taking it to market before I knew it was not Gorilla Glue 4. We took it to market and, you know, taking it to like Oakland and they were like, nah, that's the saying it. And their best guess at what it was, was, um, Grease Monkey, which was Gorilla Glue 4 and something else. I forget what the cross was on it. Yeah, I think it was a exotic deck. Yeah, that one, I remember that one. It was exotic. Yeah. Yeah. It was exotic genetics. We ended up taking that name and calling it Grease Monkey 2.0. We didn't, we couldn't confirm it was or wasn't. Sure. The guy who, uh, but if that was what they wanted to call it and that was what it was, you know, we could sell it to the club because it was super dank. Then I was fine with it, you know, so we ended up calling that Grease Monkey 2.0 for a minute. Um, I ended up making some S ones of that, which may have been an S one already because it was the fake Gorilla Glue. So I don't know what the hell it was. Um, but the S one of that that I popped, I popped one seed. Every time I'd make something that I just throw one or two, you know, in, in just to kind of see and get a look under the hood. And this plant pops and it was like the, the first set of true leaves after Carl Eden was like covered in trichomes, like covered in the, the Cecile type, you know, the type without the glandular stock and, um, and it was glistening and it was like amazing. And I could smell it right out. There was like fresh pine and coriander was unbelievable. The plant continued to grow up in veg and it just kept growing in these trichomes on every single leaf. Like the fan leaf is covered in triches. I'd never seen that before. It was so fragrant. I knew it was going to be like fucking amazing. It was just meant to be. Um, so that's what ended up becoming boss frost for us. Boss, boss frost like ruled the day for us for a minute. We went to the 2016 high times cup and that was the only thing I've ever entered into a cup. It hit 6.6 on the Terps and 33 on the total can. It blew everything else out of the water. The, the NorCal cup was, um, the lab was steep hill. I did the NorCal cup and they were, they were very, very rigid. Um, and so they had to test it multiple times even to, to, to confirm that that's what it had tested at, but that's what they ended up finally releasing for the test results. Um, so that thing that I entered didn't place, didn't do shit. I was very disappointed. I thought for sure because of just the test results and everything else that it was going to kill it. It didn't really matter. Um, but that crossed into the gargamel ended up being nightcap. And again, I just did a small seed run, um, you know, like one plant, a couple hundred seeds, nothing big, threw two of them into pots just to see what was up right away. And one of those two became nightcap. I never even went back to the seeds again. Nightcap was better than boss frost. Somehow it was like danker, more earthy, heavier. You know, it, boss frost was like very, um, ground coriander, really bright, like really bright flavors. And the nightcap was just way, way danker. And, um, that one, we ended up hitting 8.1% terps on super high in alpha pining, but does have a backbone and mere scene too. It's like kind of one to, or two to one alpha pining to mere scene in that. And, um, was the terp jam for SC labs for a couple of years till I think, um, those guys up at the ridge, ridge farm, ridge something, they, um, they ended up usurping me with a couple like 10 sub point, you know, on that. And at the time we were putting out in the living soil, we were putting out amazing stuff, our own genetics. I guess my own genetics, although I had some help. Um, and everything was killing it in the Terps from SC labs. Like boss frost, I never saw it go below four and a half. And that was on like the shittiest, shittiest grow. And nightcap was always just killing it too. So the cool thing about nightcap is that, um, the terpene profile, this is where I started really getting into terpene profiles, like around 2014, 2015, when I started my own outfit and was doing this living soil and everything else, I opted in to lab testing immediately because I wanted the data, right? So I had to pick the best labs. I would use Steve Hill or SC and I just wanted to keep one, you know, keep it as simple as possible. So that I would get as true a data set as possible, um, through all the different things we were doing in the grow, trying out different things and running different strains and whatever. So at the time, I mean, the boss frost and the nightcap were super high in alpha pine and were the highest things they would ever see. It would take me weeks to get my terp test back because they kept having to retest it to confirm that these numbers were accurate enough for them to put out. And at the time, SC labs was, was, um, making public all their test results. If you didn't ask for it to be private, they would make a public and you could go and you could scrape all the data off of their website and you could pull tens of thousands of tests. So after that, and I had a pretty decent relationship as like a client to Alec Dixon, one of the founders of SC labs, and he would shout us out all the time and we had a lot of conversations because my test would take so long to get back. I would always be calling him like, what the hell's going on? And we would have a lot of conversations and he was just like, you know, really impressed with the amount of terps we were getting off all the strains that we were growing, especially these unique lines. And, um, and what he shared with me, and we could see from the data was that all of the cannabis that was tested was falling into these like seven categories, you know, now that's what the Emerald Cup is using as their groupings for it to get away from the sativa and indica designation. And they're using these, you know, I forget what the words are, dessert, something, whatever the words are kind of tacky, but the exotic dessert dreams. Yeah. Sweets and dreams. Yeah. Right. So the, I mean, they're trying to simplify it and that's a corporate move, I'm sure, but regardless of that, the idea that we now had, we take this vast super plastic genome plant that can do so many different things and we make it finite, right? And we have seven categories now that like almost all the week fits into these seven categories. That became super interesting. And my idea was that if I play within these categories, then I will be able to breed homogenous strains much, much quicker because I'm going to be replicating this chemo type over and over and over again. And so at least the expression of the chemo type is going to be the same. Now there was a lot of misinformation about the like integral part of terpenes on flavors, you know, which I kind of could tell right away because of that banana 99 cut, I was searching like, okay, what's the terpene that's giving us this banana flavor, right? And it's not at all. It's not. It's amyl acetate. It's an ester. You know, same thing you see in alcohol production when you drink, and you get that banana. That's amyl acetate. And I had a background in brewing beer as well, just for fun, but that's how I knew about that ester. And so other light bulbs starting to go off. But the idea was the same that I follow within these terpene categories and do my breeding work within those to add or take away certain traits that I wanted and keeping other ones intact, mainly the flavor. And what I knew for the terpene profiles is that they would have a similar effect for me anyway. So I would what was interesting about the nightcap is that it's the same flavor as all the non-terpene hazes or the PIF. Yeah. PIF was something I was searching after, you know, as much as I possibly could at that time. And again, this is like 2015. Nobody was circulating cuts. You couldn't nobody had to keep black. It was like a total legend, you know, lost to the times or whatever. You couldn't find the shit. There was some work here or there. But I ended up going to JJ. I got a bunch of his stuff at one of the Emerald Cups or one of the high time shows and started running through all his stuff. That was supposed to be, you know, as close to that as possible. He got a mango cut that was super incency from somebody else on the IC forum. I forget the dude's name and made a bunch of stuff. I ended up finding some really nice, very incency non-terpene haze expressions from his stuff. Use that, bread it down a couple generations to get what I wanted out of it. And then I paired that to the nightcap because it had the same terpene profile. I was able to basically take the flowering time and reduce it tremendously, increase the bag appeal and the actual like density of the bud from what the haze that I was growing at the time was and, um, and increase the increase the terpenes and the cannabinoids by like a shitload. So it was basically allowing me to have sort of a secret weapon in nightcap to breed hazes and shorten their flowering time and do everything, but it did affect the high, you know, the effect was affected. The flavor profile stayed the same, but the effect was affected. So, um, nightcap was super influential in with my work. And from that line breeding with JJ's into the nightcap, I made nightpiff, which is like a true eight week flowering, you know, haze type. The effect is a little stronger, but it's still very heavy. It's very up. Um, and it's incense is held when it, when it burns in the room and it just hit all the traits that I wanted right away. Um, so that was kind of some of the idea of, well, one, that was the nightcap and like what the nightcap has become. Now I've worked that down several generations since then. I have a nightcap, exotic align where I added an exotic in. Um, at the time that I made it, I didn't want to sort of piggyback off of the success of cookies and what they had done. But now with the cats out of the bag, because other people had already leaked the lineage. So it is nightcap Gary Payton. And then from there, I bred that into another exotic, which I will not. Actually, well, that one was the purple cast, which nobody can get anyway, because that was a chesedero strain. Um, that I was gifted by like a family that wouldn't let anybody else have it. So that's the nightcap, exotic of season two. I continue to do to do that line. It's really high pining. Um, it's the pining. The other thing that's interesting about the pining is that the effect for me for high pining strains is very, um, it's very lucid. I don't get, I don't get the inner monologue. I don't get the backseat driver where like, I'm behind myself, kind of observing and commenting on myself or what I'm doing or whatever, you know, that's why I call the dumb mouth. The dumb mouth. Yeah. Well, I don't get the dumb mouth from it. And, and it's also extremely potent. And, um, the reason I called nightcap nightcap is because that terpene profile for me with the potency, with the high THC, allows me to drift off to sleep without any inner monologue or like my voice inside going, which is one of the things that gives me paranoia and stops me from falling asleep. So for me, it was super easy on the nightcap to fall asleep because that terpene profile, it allows a very smooth transition from sober to high or, you know, whatever you want to call that. Yeah. It's like, it's not as noticeable that you do get the head effect, you get the rush, but it's not like, Holy fuck, I overdid it. I'm too high, you know, it's like, I can maintain the same train of thought. Um, and so at the time that this was 2016, I think that that one popped and we were doing a lot of work still with medical patients and they were giving me the best feedback that they were able to sleep through the night, didn't have to get up and go to the bathroom, getting restful sleep, which if you're ailing from anything, like getting restful sleep is like one of the two best things you can possibly do, regardless of anything else that you're taking or doing. So, um, talking to cancer patients and talking to people with true medical need, who were impacted by that plan was, uh, and still is like a highlight for me. Super amazing. So my cap's been on its journey. I continue to use her today. I continue to breed her today and she's a magnificent plant. Again, it was two seeds. So recently on my own discord, I auctioned off the, the half of the remainder of those seeds that were left and some lucky gentlemen picked them up. That's cool. Yeah. That's really cool. I kept half. I need that. But, you know, I just with her in the stable, like there's almost no need to go back in. And the, and there was quite a bit of variance even in the two that I popped. It was like one was super squat. And the one that I kept was really tall, lanky and had more of what I was looking for. Um, so yeah, I'm happy to let some of those things go. And I have so many seeds now. It's like, what's, you know, if I'm not going to get around to it, let's let somebody else grow it out. That's about where I've gotten with a lot of my collection too. After a while, you just start to realize like these things do have a time limit. And, and I want to see him grown out. It's, it's, you know what I mean? Like it's either you get greedy about it and let him die with you or you get him out there and be able to get data points at least. Yeah. I mean, it shouldn't really be a collection, honestly. It's a perishable good. It's like, right? Well, it always bugged the shit out of me. When I see people with these mat, like flexing with their massive collection, it's like, grow them. What are you doing? Yeah. You know what I also learned too on the forums, the people who had posted their massive collections were always the first to get shipped down and like scammed. And it was just setting yourself up so bad, so bad to do stuff like that. Yeah. So it's a very FOMO driven. Yeah. I'm guilty of it too. I mean, I did the same thing. Like I early on, I think that's what we saw was cool. You know, like the cooler guys were showing off their killer, you know, whatever they had their big seed collection. So of course we'd follow suit as younger guys. Yeah. Well, the endorphin, the endorphin experience is like in the purchase and then receiving the package. And then after that it's over. So it's like, I gotta do it again. I need more seeds. Yeah. Yeah. I have these now. I don't need these anymore. And the flex. I honestly, the psychology of it is really interesting to me because seeds themselves are obviously not plants and they're not flower. They're not end products. They're kind of promises of something else. I love that. And then when you, even the purchase of a seed is like a promise of a promise and it's like these little gambles that you're kind of getting high on really. Yep. That's great. When we do this massive hunts now and I'm, and I'm talking to like the crew that's working under me. That's, I never have used the term promise, but I'm going to now. But I always say, Yeah. If you let one of these seeds not, if you let it dampen off or you don't, you know what I mean? It's, you're not like growing the seed properly or doing justice. If you lose seeds in a germination run, it's like you might have just lost Michael Jordan. Yep. None of his brothers did shit. You know what I'm saying? You can't lose Michael Jordan, man. You got to see all those to their true potential to know. And that's the FOMO for me now is like, if I lose a plant or a plant is, I'm like, it's not doing as well as it should. I'm not going to see its true potential. That's like where the FOMO is for me now. And I'm just like, I need, they have to be perfect. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. You could be missing that blue, that beautiful blue. It's funny because I found, I found really great things and really small runs. I found really, really amazing things in massive runs. And, you know, the potential is there. And that's, that's the thing I don't want to lose is the potential. I was just trolling my buddy here who is popping some blue. I exceed and didn't get a wall. I was going to mention it. I was going to mention it. All right. And that's going to be our show for today. I wanted to thank Pico for coming on. A thousand of course for always helping setting things up, being there with me to ask some of the harder questions that I'm not really good at. I'm only good at asking bringing stuff. Also want you to go check out our Patreon. That's how you get access to our Discord. That's where we hang out all the time. We've been doing more live chats. Actually, I'm going to go run one today. It's really nice. We get to interact with the whole community. Everybody gets to put their input on what they want to see in shows. Gives us ideas for different topics because there's, you know, I'm running out of ideas over time. You know what I mean? But I am trying to take it back to more breeding centric type show. So expect that. Definitely expect that. We have riotseeds.com with our seeds and spray. We have the diesel drop, the diesel hybrids. We have the blue dream drop from goat farm. We're going to have some new influx of stuff from high and lonesome, I believe, some mango haze hybrids coming up shortly. Going through testing right now. You can also find our seeds at riotseed co-Europe for European people in central Europe. We have GERT by seeds for our people in the southern hemisphere of Australia and New Zealand. And then we have lifted seeds also here in the U.S. but they can take like direct credit card payment stuff and they're awesome people. They're doing a great job of carrying extremely good breeders. Not every seed bank cares about that. Even if they say they do, I don't know any other ones. I really truly don't. So with that, just thanks for showing up. Thanks for caring. It means a lot to us that we can keep doing this show and enough people give a shit about this topic to keep it going. There's been a lot of times where it's almost ended. So Bowsen deserves a lot more credit than I think a lot of people have been giving him in the comments. Because without him, the show would have been dead after the whole explosion. You know what I mean? Not everybody knows about it. I don't want to go into too much detail. But we talked about it in the Patreon crowd with everyone as it was going down. There's a reason that co-hosts change. It was necessary. We hold each other to high standards. We absolutely do. And sometimes life gets hard. People slip up. Things change. Morals change. Moral fluidity as we talk about it. None of this shit is easy choices. And just know that it's a good group of dudes all holding each other to really high standards. And if someone falls back, we put them aside for a while. So with that, we'll see you next week for some more breeding chat with Breeder Syndicate. Are you able with the Syndicate? Check out our Patreon and our link tree or description below. Our merch site is officially live. We have all sorts of shirts, hoodies and goodies to sort you out and shipping is super fast. And most importantly, the quality is top notch. I've been saving old designs for years for this purpose, so please check it out. SyndicateHere.com. We also have an underground Syndicate Discord where we get together and solve old strain history together daily. We're a community of learning away from IG and it's an amazing resource for old catalogs and knowledge. We hope you join our union of breeders and growers. Come check it out.

KARN, Maximilian Ilse: Vom Bordstein bis zu Bergeshöhn
|
https://media.ccc.de/browse/conferences/camp2015/camp2015-6787-vom_bordstein_bis_zu_bergeshohn.html
Fernab von Theorien zu Killerrobotern und der Privatsphärendebatte, die dem Machine Learning 2.0 seit den 2010ern anhängt, schaffen wir künstlerische Intelligenz - Einen Algorithmus, der Gedichte generiert. Basierend auf einer Technik, die die Funktionsweise des menschlichen Gehirns grundlegend nachahmt, lehren wir einer Maschine zu reimen wie Goethe und Schiller oder KIZ und Sido. Dieselbe Technik und deren Weiterentwicklung lassen sich seit 2012 Google und Facebook einiges kosten. Die Rede ist vom Deep Learning. Als Enthusiasten in diesem Bereich möchten wir zeigen, was man mit Deep Learning alles tun kann außer Gesichter erschreckend gut zu erkennen.
Zudem wollen wir die Zuschauer anregen über Mensch und Maschine und deren Bewusstsein und Interaktion zu philosophieren. Wenn das Experiment gelingt verschwimmen die Grenzen der Protagonisten. Zuschauer können live Gedichte mit eigenem Input vom Algorithmus generieren lassen.
KARN, Maximilian Ilse

Ja, wir freuen uns heute hier zu sein. Wir sind heute hier aus zwei Gründen. Der eine ist, dass wir massive Mathe-Geeks sind. Ich glaube, das ist vielleicht mit vielen hier gemein. Und der andere ist, dass wir eigentlich schon immer mal in einer Band sein wollten, in einer richtig coolen Band. So eine Band. Die brauchen natürlich auch richtig coole Texte. Und ja, leider sehen wir es nicht ganz, als die Literaten. Die Literaten des 21. Jahrhunderts. Und andererseits haben wir festgestellt, dass zeitgenössische Popkultur doch eher eintönige Texte schreibt. Und deswegen haben wir uns gedacht, hey, vielleicht können wir Texte ja auch einfach selber generieren. Genau. Und wir haben uns gedacht, hey, das wäre doch eigentlich total cool, wenn wir so Mix-Texte hätten aus deutschen großen Literaten wie Goethe und Schiller. Aber auch so deutschen Qualitätsrapper, wie zum Beispiel Bushido oder Sido oder KIZ und Kollege. Und deswegen haben wir dem Tog jetzt den wunderschönen deutschen Namen gegeben. Von Botstein bis zu Bergeshöhen, was sich zusammensetzt aus dem aktuellen Bushido-Album und Goethe Prometheus. Genau. Im Laufe des Projekts ist dann auch mittlerweile sehr wichtige Personen dazugekommen. Louis, der ist ja heute nicht da, der guckt von Amsterdam zu. Und der hat uns letterweise sein Server zur Verfügung gestellt. Weswegen wir jetzt das folgende Feature präsentieren können? Genau. Also wir haben jetzt noch eine Website, wo ihr das selbst ausprobieren könnt, was wir jetzt vorstellen. Das sieht so aus. Die Domain ist Karin Ulrich.info slash gedichtet. Die seht ihr jetzt auch noch mal auf ein paar anderen Folien die Domain. Also sie wird immer irgendwo sein. Und da könnt ihr ein paar Einfragsbuchstaben eingeben, vielleicht einen kleinen Satz. Dann geht's auf los geht's. Und dann generiert der Algorithmus ein Gedicht oder ein paar Zahlen aus einem Gedicht. Und die könnte man dann auch Twittern. Deswegen gibt's da diesen schönen Twitter-Button. Und dann gibt es dann auch zwei Hashtags, einmal eben vom Botstein bis zu Bergeshöhen und den offiziellen Camp Hashtag. Jetzt gibt es noch eine Warnung. Wir sind keine großen Spezialisten, was es angeht, Server zu leiten. Das heißt, wir haben einen sehr kleinen Server. Das kann sein, dass die Website immer abschmiert oder dass es zu längeren Queues kommt, Gebitten und Verzeihung. Aber an sich hat Karin gerade gezeigt, dass es gehen könnte. Genau. Die große Frage ist natürlich jetzt, wie funktioniert denn das eigentlich? Pauschale einfache Antwort mit Supervised Machine Learning. Ich bin mir jetzt sicher, dass ein paar Leute in dem Raum sind, die natürlich wissen, was das ist. Für die anderen, die nicht wissen, was das ist, werde ich vielleicht nochmal in drei Sätzen erklären. Also, was wir für Machine Learning brauchen, ist einerseits erstmal Daten, richtig viele Daten. Und zwar Daten in Paar. Also wir brauchen Observationen und wir brauchen Ziele. Was sind solche Observationen? Observationen sind zum Beispiel die Wetterdaten von heute. Und so Ziele werden dann zum Beispiel, wie das Wetter denn morgen wird. Oder anderes Prominentes Beispiel von Facebook. Wir haben Observationen, also zum Beispiel Bilder. Und wir hätten gern, oder die Ziele sind, hey, wir sehen den, den sehen wir dann da auf den Bildern. Also Lisa, Tom und Klaus zum Beispiel. Und was wir dann machen, ist, unsere Observationen und unsere Ziele in so richtig komplexe Modelle zu stecken. Das ist quasi der Kern von Supervised Machine Learning. Also, dass wir uns diese komplexen Modelle richtig aussuchen und dass wir die richtig so tunen, dass das dann passt. Und dann können wir zwei Sachen damit machen, nämlich einerseits können wir dann neue Observationen reinstecken. Also ein Bild, wo wir nicht wissen wer drauf ist zum Beispiel. Und dann sagt uns das Modell, hey, da ist jetzt keine Ahnung, nur Lisa drauf und nicht mehr Tom und Klaus. Und andererseits können wir natürlich auch Paare, also Observationen und Ziele generieren. Das machen zum Beispiel gerne Physiker, wenn die wissen wollen, welche Domains auch Teilchen aufeinander klatschen. Das hat ja jetzt noch nicht so furchtbar viel mit Gedichten zu tun oder mit Texten. Aber wir wissen immerhin erstmal eins, wir brauchen Daten. Und was wir uns dann besorgt haben, erster Schritt Daten besorgen, nennt man auch Detamining. Wir haben uns besorgt erstmal alle Gedichte, die wir finden konnten von Goethe, von Schiller, von Bushido, von Sido, von KIZ und Kollege. Das ist so ungefähr 1,5 Megabyte. Und dann haben wir uns noch 500 Megabyte Wikipedia-Dump runtergeladen. Können wir uns jetzt mal merken, Wikipedia hat ja jetzt nicht so viel mit Gedichten zu tun, kommen wir aber später noch drauf zurück, wofür wir das noch gebrauchen können. So, jetzt erinnert euch in der letzten Folie, nach den Daten kommen die komplexen Modelle. Das Problem ist nur, ja, wie gebe ich denn den komplexen Modellen? Die sind so von der Natur her eher mathematisch, diese Sätze, ne? Da müssen wir erstmal noch gucken, dass wir die irgendwie besser zu den Modellen füttern können. Das heißt also, wir nehmen jetzt unseren Text, das ist jetzt hier zum Beispiel mal Bedecke deinen Himmelzeug aus dem Prometheus und wir teilen den in seine Einzelheiten auf. Das können Wurther sein, das können einzelne Buchstaben sein, in dem Fall habe ich jetzt einfach mal Silben gebildet, ja? Also wir haben B, Decke, deinen Himmelzeug, das ist schon mal besser, ne? Da hat irgendwie der Computer jetzt Einheiten, mit denen der umgehen kann, was aber für Mathe immer noch besser ist, sind richtige Zahlen. Und das heißt, wir indexen die jetzt. Was wir machen ist, wir geben jeder einzigartigen Silbe einen einzigartigen Index, also wir sehen zum Beispiel das B, das hat eine Null und alle Leerzeichen, die haben immer den Index 3. So, jetzt gehen wir noch einen Schritt weiter, das ist eigentlich erstmal perfekt, ne? Wir haben Zahlen und Computer können super mitzahlen und für den Grund, den ich dann später noch erkläre, ändern wir die Repräsentationen. Und zwar machen wir das folgendermaßen, wir zählen erstmal alle Silben, die wir haben. In unserem Beispiel sind das jetzt zum Beispiel 9 und wir machen ein Vektor mit 9 Nullen und überall, wo der Index ist, dann setzen wir eine 1, ne? Klang jetzt schwer, ist aber gar nicht so schwer, also B, da ist wieder an der ersten Stelle die 1 und immer an der vierten Stelle in dem Vektor bei den Leerzeichen ist zum Beispiel jetzt eine 1. Wacht jetzt vielleicht noch nicht so viel Sinn, das wirkt ein bisschen aufgeblasen. Wir werden später aber dazu kommen, warum das eine kluge Idee war, das so zu machen. So, jetzt können wir eigentlich zu den komplexen Modellen kommen, nicht? Oder doch nicht? Also, was haben wir denn jetzt gemacht? Also, wir haben jetzt eine Menge Text, ne? Und dann haben wir jetzt auch so gemacht, dass der Computer den lesen kann. Ja, aber was sind jetzt die Observationen und was sind die Ziele? Observationen können wir uns vielleicht noch einfach denken. Das ist einfach, was wir da jetzt gelesen haben, B-Decke, deinen Himmel, so ist. So, und wenn wir jetzt wissen wollen, was die Ziele sind, dann müssen wir uns eigentlich erst mal fragen, was sollen das Modell machen? Und was unser Modell macht und was die meisten Sprachmodelle machen, ist quasi die nächste Einheit voraus zu sagen, auf rund der vorangegangenen Einheit. Also, wenn ich jetzt zum Beispiel anfange mit B, dann würde ich eigentlich gern, dass mein Netzwerk oder mein komplexes Modell sagen kann, hey, die nächste Silbe, die jetzt kommt, das wäre D, ne? Oder wenn wir jetzt dahinten bei Himmel sind, also wir haben jetzt schon Himm, ne? Und auch den ganzen B-Decke deinen Himm, dann würden wir eigentlich gerne wissen, ah, die nächste Silbe, die wir jetzt idealerweise melden, ne? Also, was wir jetzt machen, ist einfach, wir verschieben das ganze Textfeld einfach nur um eins, sodass das Netzwerk quasi immer schon vorher wissen muss, was später kommt, ne? So, und jetzt kommen wir auch schon, ach, dann nochmal eine Zusammenfassung von dem, was wir gemacht haben, also wir können jetzt zum Beispiel in diesem, der schönen Animationen hier sehen, stecken das Englische Wirt in unseren Reparationsumwandler, dann kommt dieser Vektor raus mit den vielen Nullen, den ich gezeigt habe, und dann stecken wir denen das komplexe Modell, was wir dann später Neurales Netzwerk nennen, und dann kommen Wahrscheinlichkeiten idealer Reise raus für was als nächstes kommt, ne? So, jetzt machen wir das, suchen wir uns ein Beispiel aus, sagen wir hier, und wie sieht jetzt dieses Modell ganz konkret aus? Wir nehmen diese Silbemell, wir erinnern uns an die Darstellung, ne? Also, das kommt natürlich nicht als Mel in das komplexe Modell oder das Neurales Netzwerk, sondern als Vektor, und dann multiplizieren wir dann im Matrix ran, die nennen wir auch Gewichte, und dann kommt wieder ein Vektor raus, vielleicht für diejenigen, die nicht so mit Mathe, das ist auch die einzige und letzte Folie, drei Minuten abschalten, und dann gibt es Gedichte versprochen. Also, wir nehmen diesen Vektor, der das Mel repräsentiert, und wir multiplizieren den mit der Matrix, und dann kommt eine sogenannte hidden representation dabei raus, also eine innere oder eine versteckte Repräsentation unserer Silbe, und dann machen wir das Ganze nochmal mit einem anderen Gewicht, das nennen wir We Out, und dann kommt, nachdem wir das skaliert haben, idealerweise so ein Vektor raus, dessen Wert es sich auf eins addieren. Die Klugen werden's merken, den anderen erklär ich's. Das war nicht politisch korrekt. Also, was wir dann sehen, ist quasi eine Superwahrscheinlichkeitsverteilung. Also, wir können quasi aufgrund der Silbe mel, dann sagen, hey, als nächstes ist am wahrscheinlichsten ein Leerzeichen, oder beziehungsweise das sollte so sein, wenn unser Netzwerk schlecht ist, dann macht's halt irgendwas, aber idealerweise kommt dann ein Leerzeichen danach. Das Problem ist jetzt nur bei unserem Netzwerk, hier sehen wir ja, da kommt jetzt nur das Wort mel rein. Wir werden aber ja gerne, dass das Netzwerk mehr weiß, als das Wort mel. Also, machen wir das einfach nochmal, da kommt jetzt die Silbe, die da vorkommt, machen wir da genau dasselbe, wir multiplizieren das mit derselben Matrix, kommt wieder so eine innere Repräsentation raus. So, jetzt müssen wir die noch irgendwie einbinden, ja, dann brauchen wir noch eine Matrix daran und addieren die dann da auf die innere Repräsentation. Das könnte ich jetzt so sukzessive ganz lange fortsetzen, bis wir am Anfang des Satzes sind, so lange wie wir wollen. Und so, das ist auch schon die ganze, das ganze Geheimnis von dem Modell, so funktioniert das. Also, wir nehmen immer noch ein paar Hinterritte dazu und dann addieren wir die immer weiter drauf und dann irgendwann hoffen wir, kriegt das einfach dadurch, dass das immer diese Information von hinten hat, kriegt das dann genug mit, um zu sagen, hey, wir machen jetzt ein sinnvolles Nächstes, ein sinnvolles Nächstesilbe. So, jetzt werden sich vielleicht schon die ersten Fragen, ja, die Gewichte, die sind ja schön, wie stimme ich die denn jetzt, wie geht denn das? Und das ist tatsächlich eine sehr gute Frage und das ist auch irgendwie die schwarze Kunst im Deep Learning. Die muss man nämlich tatsächlich einstellen, die Gesichter. Und das ist ein relativ schwieriger, iterativer Prozess, den nennt man auch Netzwerktraining, weil der eben iterativ ist. Und darüber will ich aber gar nicht so viel sagen, weil das tatsächlich gar nicht so leicht ist. Aber so viel sei gesagt, das hat 20 Jahre gedauert, bis man das heute so gut hinkriegt, wie man es bekommt. So, jetzt habe ich viel geredet über das Modell, jetzt sind wir auch schon fertig. Ich würde gerne mal ein Gedicht aus dem ersten Modell, was wir so trainiert haben, präsentieren. Opfer. Opfer sind der Straße mit dem Freund. Ist der Straße schwer, die Straße schwer. Sind die schweren, so wie die Schwanz, ist der Schwanz. War ich die Straße schwer, die Schwanz, wieder ein Herz zu sehen? Ich bin der Schwanz, in der Schweine schwer. Schaut, ich bin der Schweine. Und sein Das ist der Straße schwer, die Straße schwer. Und wieder geht nicht mehr. Das ist ja jetzt noch nicht so doll, ne? Oder doch, ist es vielleicht doch doll. Jetzt müssen wir uns nochmal Gedanken machen, was haben wir denn in den Netzwerk gegeben? Den Netzwerk haben wir gegeben nur einzelne Buchstaben. Also nicht die 7, ich habe das jetzt im Beispiel so gemacht, weil das einfacher war, weil wir haben in den Netzwerken einzelne Buchstaben gegeben. Und was das jetzt schon gelernt hat, ist eigentlich total klasse. Wir haben gelernt, deutsche Wörter zu bilden. Das sind alles deutsche Wörter, die wiederholen sich zwar verflucht oft, und es kommt verdammt auf dieselben Wörter vor. Aber immerhin, das hat ja schon mal gelernt. Und so ein bisschen Kramatik ist auch dabei, klingt zwar noch avant-garde, aber naja, aber wir wollten weiter, wir wollten mehr. Und dann haben wir erstmal den Bayerischen Rundfunk oder den Süddeutschen Rundfunk bemüht. Und er hat so eine nette Statistik mal rausgegeben über das Vokabular in deutschen Reptexten. Ah, wer rausgefunden? So Sido und Bushido haben eigentlich ein vergleichsweise geringes Vokabular. Nicht ganz so schlimm wie Helene Fischer, aber dennoch recht gering. Also haben wir gesagt, die schließen wir jetzt aus, oder wir nehmen nur noch wenige von deren Texten. Und wir nehmen dafür Kollege und KIZ, weil die Tatsachen relativ hohen World Count haben. Und jetzt erinnern wir uns nochmal an eine der allerersten Folien, wo wir gesagt haben, hey, bei den Daten holen wir uns auch Wikipedia-Daten runter. Das macht jetzt Sinn, weil wir können jetzt nämlich sagen, okay, wir lassen jetzt erstmal unser komplexes Modell mit den Wikipedia-Daten trainieren, weil das dann nämlich erstmal grundlegende Sachen über die deutsche Sprache lernt. Also was sind denn überhaupt deutsche Wörter? Wo mache ich vielleicht Kommas oder einfach wo es in die Space ist, damit schon mal, wenn nicht so viele Daten Verbrauchung in Anführungsstrichen. Das ist jetzt mit unserem kleinen Verbessern-Datensatz. Und dann ist das Netzwerk entstanden, was ihr jetzt auch auf dem Server quasi ausprobieren könnt. Und wir haben nochmal ein letztes Gedicht. Vom Bordstein bis zu Wergeshöhlen. Sind zu seinen Herzen, ihr der Gang, eine Deine Weinen der Flammen, ich schön die Schwanz und kauf die Sternen sein geschickt, in der Mensch und sind den Schweinen der Wart, mit die Tage geschweigt. Den Herzen in der Bett der Nacht der Sternen schwer der Körper, aus dem Mund in Deinen Straßen, Kollege der Breite Rapper. Frauen sind auf der Code und String. Deine Schwanz, die Fern, ich geb den King, ist durch den Pussen wie der Kenner King. Als letztes möchte ich nochmal gerne Danke sagen an alle, die mitgeholfen haben. Am besten nochmal einen großen Applaus an Louis, bitte. Der hat ganz viel geholfen, dass das heute ja läuft. Und Fabian und Sarah, die haben gemacht, dass das alles ein bisschen hübscher aussieht, als wir das geplant haben. Und natürlich an ganze CCT-Team, die das hier möglich gemacht haben. Wie sind wir noch Zeit? Vielen, vielen Dank, aber auch an euch, Karin und Max, dass ihr euch auf die Bühne getraut habt, dass ihr den anderen das vorgestellt habt. Jetzt möchte ich euch noch die Chance geben, da wir sehr gut in der Zeit sind. Es ist noch gut Zeit für Fragen. Bitte kommt zum Mikro vor. Die anderen Seiten in den Gängen steht eins. Keine Fragen? Ich bin früh in der Zeit. Doch, doch, doch kommt. Mikro, bitte, möglichst nicht an den Mund. Ja, genau. Ich bin ja immer... Oh, große Halle, geil. Ich bin jetzt gerade ein klein wenig zu spät gewesen, weil ihr den unbenannt habt, irgendwie. Ich habe es, das war alles ein bisschen knapp. Das Klang eben so, das war das, was die Maschine gemacht hat. Anhand der Daten, also Songtexte, die ihr, die den gefüttert habt, richtig? Richtig. Gut, das habe ich mitgeschnitten. Und es gibt die Möglichkeit, das mit anderen Texten selber zu machen, habe ich das richtig verstanden? Es gibt die Möglichkeit, das mit allen sequenziellen Daten zu machen. Das ist nicht nur auf Texte beschrieben. Ihr könnt euren Linux-Girne-Datatzache reinhauen und das wird euch funktionierende Linux-Girne rausschmeißen. Ihr könnt euer Latech-gekohletes-Mattebuch da reinschmeißen und das wird euch funktionierenden Latech-Text rausschmeißen. Also geht viel. Ja, das ist geil, weil ich bin Autorin und würde gerne wissen, was ich von WordCount habe. Das ist ja der Hammer. Ah, das weiß ich nicht. Geht das? Was von WordCount? Das habe ich, das Wort habe ich gerade bei euch gelernt. Ist das der Umfang des Wortschatzes? Ach so, ja genau, der Umfang des Wortschatzes in der gesamten Diskographie dieser Künstler. Okay, cool. Vielen Dank, das war super interessant. Danke. Hallo. Ich habe mich in den Raum gespielt während dem Talk mit der Website. Mir ist es bloß aufgefallen, dass am Ende immer, also öfters auftritt, dass nur ein Buchstabe erscheint. Ist das ein Back- oder ein Glitch? Absicht. Sollte, hoffentlich nicht bei dem Back, wie viel gibst du denn ein? Nur ein bis drei Worte. Probier's nochmal. Nein. Hallo. Vielleicht habe ich es nicht ganz mitbekommen, aber welchen Einfluss hat jetzt der Wikipedia-Dump? Er hat nur über die Songtexte gesprochen, aber die Wikipedia jetzt da Einfluss hatte, habe ich nicht ganz verstanden. Also das macht man generell gern, wenn man seine Modelle, das heißt Fortsrainieren möchte, also man will schon mal so ein bisschen in die richtige Richtung schieben. Richtig. Dann haben die quasi von dem Wikipedia-Dump kann man so sagen. Okay, und dann schiebt hier hinterher noch die Songtexte oben drauf. Und deswegen hat das ein höheres Gewicht als der Wikipedia-Dump, oder? Genau, weil wir das danach quasi dann wieder quasi fährlernen zum Teil, was von Wikipedia kam, kommt dann eigentlich eine mehrgedichtartige Struktur dabei raus. Okay, danke. Von links gibt's noch eine Frage? Ja. Habt ihr das Ganze auch mal mit der Englischen Wikipedia probiert? Das haben ganz viele schon mit der Englischen Wikipedia probiert, ja. Ich kann papertechnisch Alex Graves empfehlen oder Joffrey Hinton, wenn man da nachschlagen möchte. Okay, und eine fertige Implementierung davon gibt's auch? Mehrere ja. Okay, danke. Und von links wieder. Ja, hallo, danke für den Vortrag. Ich wüsste gerne, welche Ideen wir sehen, besonders hinsichtlich zum Beispiel Fersmaß oder Reimer. Interessanterweise sind die meisten Modelle, die heute so funktionieren, mit Buchstaben. Es hat einfach den Vorteil, dass das Vokabular, also die Länge dieses Vektors relativ beschränkt ist, nämlich nur auf, wie viel jetzt UTF-8 oder whatever Zeichen hat. Und wenn ich jetzt Silben nehme, oder Würter, dann bin ich schnell bei 10.000 langen und deswegen neigen heute die meisten dazu, also diese Buchstaben zu nehmen. Und wir haben gedacht, hey, wir könnten das eigentlich mal mit Silben probieren, dann kriegt er vielleicht diesen Rhythmus besser hin. Das hat aber tatsächlich nicht so gut funktioniert, leider. Für unser Beispiel jetzt. Ansonsten ist es einfach ein extrem aktives wissenschaftliches Feld gerade. Also da passiert wirklich viel, wirklich schnell. Und man könnte noch annehmen, dass es hilft, wenn man noch viel mehr Gedichte dem Algorithmus füttert. Wenn das Verhältnis noch ein bisschen in Richtung Gedichte gedrückt wäre, wäre natürlich vorteilhaft. Kann man euch also Gedichte zukommen lassen und ihr füttert das damit? Oder muss man das alles selber machen? Es ist gar nicht so schwer selber zu machen. Aber für alle die Fragen haben, wir sind dann bestimmt noch verfügbar. Ja genau, seid ihr irgendwo verfügbar? Schön. Bitte geht auf die Webseite und probiert das aus, bitte. Und widet das? Genau. Oh, und wir möchten uns entschuldigen, falls irgendwann mal unrespektabler Content dabei rauskommt, ja. Qualitätsreppe ist leider politisch nicht ganz korrekt. Wir konnten das jetzt für den Vortrag filtern, aber das kann sein, dass das hier und da mal bei den Generationen bei rumkommt. Dann bitte ein herzliches Dankeschön und dass Sie uns so gute neue Ideen gegrillt haben.

zero-carb carnivore grocery haul and guys by all means do I wish I could go to a supermarket and get all the food I needed at a reasonable price surprisingly my local supermarket does have some grass-fed lamb certain cuts of grass-fed beef at pretty low prices per pound but I really kind of search far and wide and go to different purveyors to get all of my food so this is stuff I've accumulated over the past few days and I'll kind of explain why I got everything as we go through it so this is my downstairs garage fridge where I keep most of the meat at the top here I have some New York strips that are coated in beef fat I'll show you guys how I do that and they're just gonna kind of dry age for 30 45 days I don't really know the rest of this is just slabs of lamb fat and this lamb fat is trimmed off of the lamb chops at my local supermarket sometimes they even give this to me for free so that's where a bulk of my calories come from in this drawer here I have just another ribeye primal and the reason I still have this in the cryo vac is because I might be eating this raw and I don't like drying out the surface and because then it gets kind of like eating the raw meat with the dried surface doesn't taste too good and here I have this is Wagyu Australian Wagyu from Dia Montana I believe I don't remember I think this is like beef Kulet I don't remember the cut but this was around $7 a pound this is just some cryo that wrapped back Wagyu beef I have a bunch of them in here I got like five or six of these in here probably like 10 pounds it's 15 pounds of Wagyu so the Wagyu the ribeye the strips those were all from a local specialty foods provider that I have a license with in New York City roughly I think the strips were like 690 a pound the ribeye were like seven something these were seven something the lamb fat was from the local supermarket that was I mean I either pay a dollar a pound or they give it to me for free most of the time the lamb fat if it sits in the fridge for two three weeks it stays pretty much the same once the lamb fat's in there for like three weeks four weeks it starts getting really really funky getting a little mold becoming really umami and fermented flavors some of you guys might think of it as high meat but that's all I have down here let's go upstairs and I'll show you guys what else I have this is what I do with the primals if I want them to like stay soft on the inside so the surface is going to dry out if you don't coat them would be fat what this does is it not only makes the primal easier to cut you don't really have to cut away any waste I mean you don't have to cut waste away anyway but if you're dry aging the steak for more than like 30 days it definitely gets very hard on the outside and you have to cut some away so in this pot is just melted beef fat and it's at a pretty it's at a pretty low temperature it's just it's just warm enough for it to be liquid so I could spread it easily and then when I put the beef fat on the cold meat it will solidify almost immediately I just want to make sure I get all the nooks and crevices pretty well in addition to covering these with fat you could use like like black peppercorn is a natural deterrent for flies so if it was if it was summer right now I'd probably put a bunch of black peppercorn on the outside of this just in case a flyer to gets in the fridge but the main reason I do this is so when I go to cut it it's not like cutting through you know a rock it's very difficult to cut through the dry beef fat I saw someone online I saw them do this with butter I mean I don't see why you you can't use any other type of fat for this of course I mean I prefer the grass that beef fat you know what's the point of putting you know some high Omega 6 fat on my meat I mean this will this fat will cook off regardless when we actually go to cook these steaks I usually keep any of my stuff in this upstairs fridge maybe if it's like some meat I'm gonna eat over the next day or two but today I actually do have some stuff that's mine in here and not really some stuff but I got two things in here this is flounder row this one is so much darker because I salted it but this is just the regular flounder row I bought like 10 pounds worth of Skynes from the new Fulton fish market for like $2 a pound separated them pretty much just looks like pudding but the row I used is my primary like organ meat source right now for nutrition very high in DHA very high in fat type of vitamins all of them ADK BC very high in vitamins that's what I've been using right now the salt and stuff is a little too salty I'm probably gonna actually have to go down and buy some more that's like a bulk thing though usually have to order like a few hundred dollars worth of fish and then he delivers that with whatever else I ask him for here I just have some some beef fat in a big pot I got some more on the stove over there melting down I was using this for as you guys saw coating the primals and I also might have to use this for pemicin down the line I got four big jars of beef fat right now this is a tallow rendered tallow from grass that beef fat but I don't really eat that I just use it to cook with I might have to I might make some pemicin as I said in the future for as a preserved food that I could have this just one of the ribeye primals a part of one of them that I was eating over the past few days this is just the rest of the beef fat that I was rendering for the tallow one of the salts I use a flurry cell de gronde finishing salt here I have my other salt it's just a Celtic sea salt eating Celtic salt then I just have a little thing of fish I was gonna eat later if you guys want it get like any of these salts or anything they're on my Amazon shop I believe under the salt and seasoning section and that's really a guy just a bunch of like steaks some of that wagyu and then I just got the lamp fat is my source of fat that's why I'm really eating I'm waiting on getting some lamb liver and some liver that I can eat and then make into high liver over the next few days so that's the only thing I'm really missing that I still need to get but outside of that just to go over everything I think I could get the invoice from the meat provider down here but I think I got like around 50 pounds of meat for around $370 I think that's what I ended up buying very very affordable in the context of you know that's probably gonna feed me for a month so to speak and then maybe I'll spend a few dollars extra here and there I didn't show you guys in my fridge I also had I have some raw grass-fed cream but this is for my grandma I'm gonna bring this down to her I can't eat this but I had this delivery come yesterday from a just guys check out real milk.com if you're interested in local high quality raw grass-fed dairy I think I've showed you guys everything that I've been eating that I'm gonna eat over the next month or so I know it's not too exciting but if you guys would like to support me please just share the video if you guys are like to reach out to me for consultations whether it's hey I could help you guys out with food sourcing if you want just kind of pursuing all your local options and trying to figure out where you can get certain things like obviously I mean fish row is from one plaque of place liver might be from a different place and there you know there are places online you can buy stuff but for me sourcing it fresh as high quality as possible is at least important to me but again thank you guys for watching let me know if you guys would like to see you know these types of videos in the future and kind of maybe I could throw some other stuff in there as well

In theory, the URL bar that's shown at the top of a web browser is your unambiguous clue to website identity. If the URL bar says Google.com, you're at the real Google. But in practice, it's not always so easy to tell site identity from a domain. In a study that we did with over 1,000 participants, we showed users a browser window where the website looked like a Google login page, but the address bar said tinyurl.com. When asked to identify this website, over 85% of participants said the website was Google. We're approaching this problem from a few angles. First, we're actively combating sophisticated spoofing techniques that abuse URLs to create unusually deceptive attacks. Second, we're trying to draw people's attention to the information in URLs that's most relevant for making security decisions. And finally, we're building specialized tools to support expert use cases so that we can help make URLs better security tools without interfering with experts' workflows. People should be able to browse the web without worrying that someone is collecting a dossier on them for what they're doing, and developers should be able to build sites without worrying that their infrastructure is compromising their users' interests. Third parties may want to answer some very natural and non-personal questions, things like how many different people saw my ad, or how often do the people who click on these ads actually buy something? Answering all these questions today relies on a really powerful capability, global cross-site identity. And this is what can also be used to knit your browsing behavior together into a user profile. So once we've invented new ways for the web to flourish, ways that don't rely on tracking, recognizing users across sites has historically been based on third-party cookies. But as browsers have restricted access to those cookies, we've seen them replaced with other mechanisms, covert browser storage, device fingerprinting. Those covert tracking techniques are a real problem. If the web platform forces you to use high entropy fingerprinting surfaces to perform mundane tasks like checking for emoji support, that's a problem that we need to fix. And then we want Chrome to notice it and stop it when a website is abusing a bunch of unrelated high entropy content APIs as a way to fingerprint you. Our privacy budget explainer describes the multi-step process that we're working on. Starting in Chrome M80, that's three months from now, if you set a cookie the way you've probably been doing it since the dawn of the web, that cookie will be available only in a first-party context. If you want that cookie when you're a third-party, you need to do something new. If you want a cookie available when you're a third-party, you will need to explicitly set it with the attributes same site equals none and secure. And there are a lot of online services that heavily rely on phone numbers, especially as a way to send SMS text messages. These services are using SMS to let users sign up, help users recover their accounts, increase user security with two-step verification, or confirm payments. That's why we are proposing a new API called SMS receiver API. Web developers can use the SMS receiver API to let the browser receive the SMS message, extract the OTP, and enter the OTP on behalf of the user. Before the website can receive an SMS, you have to know the user's phone number so that you can send a message. If you are using an input tag, my recommendation is to use auto-complete equal tell. That way, the browser can help the user outfill their phone number. When an SMS is received and meets all the conditions, a bottom sheet appears in the browser, and the user can grant the browser permission to access the text message. This permission is required for every receipt of a new message. This means the browser won't be able to read SMS messages without the user's explicit permission. To learn more about the SMS receiver API, please go to Google slash SMS receiver API. In the previous session, Emily showed you how Chrome tries to ensure that user is on the genuine site. Web often allows you to provide an extra layer of safety for users because the keeper is bound to the website's origin. Even if a user ends up on a phishing website, that phishing website will not be able to make the user generate a valid signature. Now, I would like to talk about two primary user experiences using web often. There are two factor authentication and reauthentication. So how effective are second factors? Here's a comparison between SMS ODP as a second factor and security key as a second factor. As you can see, SMS ODP is not perfect against targeted attacks while security key protect users completely. Platform authenticators are more consumer-friendly than roaming authenticator or security keys because you don't have to purchase a separate device. You don't have to worry about carrying it around and they are a part of device you use every day.

RESET VECTOR: DMD 16x96 Single Line Test
|
I finally finished building the Dot Matrix Display for Reset Vector. The Matrixing is run by a FPGA. The data is shifted in by the main propeller microcontroller. Currently the only code on the propeller is the single line text generator. I have a double line text generator and a animation driver that will load bitmaps off an SD card.
If you want to take a look at the code I will be posting it on my website.

Hey guys, it's Parker Domen, the Longhorn Engineer, and I have been working on the Dot Matrix Display for Reset Vector, and here it is. The resolution is 16 rows by 96 columns, and it's run by an FPGA that is serially addressed by the propeller. So what the propeller does is it just sends all the bits for the frame. So one frame is all the pixels here. So it sends the entire frame to a register bank on the FPGA, and then when the propeller latches low, it basically says we have shifted in all the data, and it will automatically just do the matrixing. So the FPGA takes care of all the matrixing that's involved in this display, and so the propeller doesn't really have to do anything besides shift all that data. So it makes it so that the propeller doesn't have to do any work in terms of driving this display. So what I'm going to do is I have a little demo code. So I'll type stuff into the serial monitor on the serial, sorry, the parallax serial terminal. So I can type in 12 characters, hit enter, and those will pop up here. Right now it's only supporting the single line text, which means it uses this entire display display 12 characters. I'm working on a double line so that it will display two lines of characters. But of course, the characters would be smaller. So if we type in, let's see, reset, and semicolons are the spaces messed up there. And so we can type something else random in like, let's five, six, hello world.

There is a New Spec in Town: Getting to Know the Device Information... Billy McFall & Adrián Moreno
|
Don’t miss out! Join us at our upcoming event: KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2021 in Los Angeles, CA from October 12-15. 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.
There is a New Spec in Town: Getting to Know the Device Information Spec - Billy McFall & Adrián Moreno, Red Hat
Cloud Native Network Functions (CNFs) will be the cornerstone of the 5G revolution. Unlike traditional workloads, CNFs require access to high speed network interfaces. Unfortunately, Kubernetes traditional networking does not fulfil this requirement out of the box. In order to close these gaps, a new specification has been developed called the Device Information Specification, which expands the existing multi-net specification developed by the Network Plumbing Working Group (NPWG). It not only enriches the information about the network interfaces, but also allows new accelerated technologies to be added and consumed by CNFs using an API-compliant library. This session will give an overview of the Device Information Specification and provide details of how it enables new network accelerating technologies to be integrated into Kubernetes through an end-to-end example.

Hey Billy are you ready for our meeting? Hey Adrian, I don't see anyone else here. Is it just us today? Yes, seems everyone else bailed If that's the case, can we hold off for just a couple of minutes? I'm trying to new deployment and I need a couple more minutes to get to a breaking point Sure, no problem. I can help if you want Yeah, I mean if you've got time, that'd be great So I've got a customer that's got some requirements I'm not real familiar with they've got a legacy application They want to containerize and require some additional interfaces to make it work properly now I know multi CNI we allow you to run multiple CNI's for a container Which will basically add multiple interfaces to the container was the first time I've really had to do it with SRV VF's I Was able to bring up the pod, but I can't tell which of the diff additional interfaces is used for what? Okay, do you have a diagram or something? Can you show me what you're trying to do? Yeah, I think I got one here All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna share my screen. Hold on just a second. I found it. All right sharing Can you see the drawing? Yes Okay, so as you can see from the picture, they need a high-speed interface to receive some video stream in on one interface The app does it's transcoding magic and then my sense of modified stream out a second interface These video streams are at high data rates and need to be on separate interfaces Okay I have a 5g case that is quite similar at least The interfaces interface requirements is similar enough In fact, this kind of setup is more common than you think Let's take a look at your cluster. Do you have A terminal around? Yeah, actually, um, I'll share but let me send you some here. Here's the login stuff and Okay, you can maybe Tmux in here. Let me share it. There we go. Yeah Yep, I mean Okay So here's what I have so far. I found some srv documentation So I've got enough that I was able to take my srv capable nick And divide it into multiple virtual functions so that multiple containers can share the same nick Hang on. I got this command and somewhere one of my notepads All right, there you go. So now you can see, um, I've got these two interfaces with four vfs each All right. So now if I show you my qtl Get pods all right, so there's my test pod and If we go and look at it So you can see here, um, I've got e0 for my default network and then a couple of net interfaces for the additional interfaces But I don't know which net net one or net two is used for what? so I'm logging I'm looking at logs and trying to hard code some values into my sample container to make this work out Okay, got you. Um, I don't think you have to hard code anything. Let me jump in real quick. Um, okay And see what versions you're running So Okay, I see that you're running multis and the device plugin so Let's start with the device plugin for instance um Okay, you're running 3.3.1, which is fairly recent. That's good. Okay. I'm gonna I'm gonna check the multis version just in case I want to make sure you have all the changes Um that we've recently added What changes are you looking for? um Okay, I'm I'm looking for some changes the device info changes the network plumbing working group recently Applied recently approved a new spec called the device info spec It specifies how additional device data can be passed into the pot. Look If everything is working the information that you're looking for should be here Yes, there it is Oh You see In the pot annotations, there is a network status field And within that field, uh, there is a JSON object for each network interface. Okay Within that object, uh There we have recently added the device info part And that is the information of your hardware device that is nicely associated with your network interface Now as how was that association was actually made? um It's cute. Let the one that allocates the device depending on the device plugins reported pools um Okay, hang on that was a little faster a lot of components. Um Maybe we can draw a picture or something with all the components and how they talk to each other Sure. Um, actually I'm working on some slides for kubecon. So let me paste A link in the chat If you can the link I have a deck on it here. Um Let's just jump to slide seven Okay here. I'll put it in the shared screen so we can see it Can you see it? Yes so Um There in that diagram shows a typical sraov Deployment So as you already know Multis is the one that allows you to call different cni plugins to attach additional networks, right? Right, right. Now that part I got yes Okay Well, uh, when it calls sraov cni It adds an extra parameter with the pc i address that it has to configure The pc i address of the vf Okay, then the sraov cni just configures the networking aspects of the vf For example mac address vlan tag, uh, the trusted mode and so on Okay, I kind of get that part. Um, I see the sraov device plugin in your drawing. Um Now what's the purpose of the device plugin again? Yeah In the case of sraov Um, we need to make sure that we properly manage the limited hardware resources that we have in the node In this case the virtual functions of our sraov cni Also, we need to modify the pods runtime spec to provide access to those hardware resources Okay, basically that is what the what the device plugin does for us It is a devon set that sits on the node. It discovers the available hardware resources Our arranges them into pools into resource pools Defined in a config map and makes these pools available to kiblet Okay, now, um, I do have a member creating my config map. Um, hang on. We'll switch back to the terminal here for a second. All right, so So here Here's my config map that I created All right, can you see that? Yes, it looks like, uh, you set up the config map correctly at least, um That config map is saying it's defining two resource pools one of the resource pools will um We'll pick up all the vfs from ps0 and the other Uh resource pool will pick up all the vfs from pf1. Is that what you wanted? Yes. Yes. So that sounds good. I think I got a little lucky there on what I copied. So, um, okay Now let's look at the network attachment definition. Did you create one of those? Yes. Yes. All right, so All right, so here's the yaml I used to create that Yeah, okay. So as you can see um Your network attachment definition references the pools that you've created in the config map So that's ctx6 pf0 and pf1. Okay. Yes, I do. I do. Okay. So, um Here, let me go back to that picture so I can look at that again. All right. Here we go. So so, um, having that reference, um properly done, uh, how it works is um when the network attachment definition references the, um The correct pool and a pot is allocated. Um, that uses one of those network attachment definitions kubelet Selects a free device from the pool and asks the device plugin to provide the device information The response contains information about linux devices That, um, have to be added to the runtime spec mount points and environmental variables Okay, so basically that is how the pot has Then access to to a specific pc i address Now the problem is that that information flows directly from kubelet to the pot and, um It gets to the pot in a very limited way. So you don't have Like the context of the cni interface with it Okay, um, and you said there was this new spec that was written. How does that tie in with what we're talking about here? Well, the spec changes this into the diagram in slide 10 10 hold on All right, there's slide 10 Yes, there you go. So as you see now the device plugin Now writes a file in the notes file system Then is that the device info file? Exactly the device info file. Okay it writes the file in a predefined path with a standardized format and uh, once the file is written Moltus will then pick it up and Write it into the network status annotation under the right interface Okay, so this device file is actually on the node So you're saying I could troubleshoot some of the device related issues just by looking at that file on my note. Is that right? Yes, that's correct All right. Hang on. Let me go back here and see if I can Take a look at you know, would you remember what the name of that file is or where it is? It's in slash bar run k8s Cni, you know tap your way. Okay. Yeah um device info Dp for device plugin Okay, you have all the yes. Oh, yeah, there's a couple of them there. All right It's a json format. So if you just if you come pipe it to jq if you have jq installed um So we can see the json Okay, on tent correct. All right That looks a lot like the device info stuff right there that was in the annotations Uh, yes, that's exactly right so, um If you look into the um annotations again, you should see that that json Part is Has been added to the uh network status annotation in the right interface. Okay. Yeah, let me go back here and see if I can figure this out Um, okay. Yeah, so I see that pc i address in the device info That we talked about and then there's that sr ov dash net zero that we're talking about in the name field Cool Correct. So um the sr ov net zero is the name of your network attachment And the uh net one is the name of the interface Seen inside the pods network namespace. All right. Cool. All right. I want to stop sharing here. That's that was good. That's good All right, so um, so we wait a minute you wrote a new spec just so we could figure out which interface belongs to which network No, that was just one of the added benefits It allows network A new accelerated network devices to be added to uh, kubernetes more recently so Recently i've been Working on this technology called vdpa It exposes accelerated free tio compatible interfaces So it supports Exposing a normal net def to be used by standard containers, but it also supports exposing a special char device called vhost or vhost ddpa device That can be used by dpdk apps for example um to do memory mapping um They basically to map to map to map the memory directly Uh from the nick to the application Okay, so so the nick can dma directly into the app So this is uh one of the use cases And as you can imagine without this pack It will be impossible for the pod to know all the extra details needed to consume these new devices Okay, so um, so it sounds like it makes um bringing up these newer network devices easier And also but more in a standardized way instead of using i don't know maybe proprietary environmental variables or something like that, right? right so we wanted to um have a clear spec to um Basically make a pot on pots and application developers lives Easier The spec supports a number of uh different network devices The strio v devices, uh like in your case, mem if ddpa and some more Just it's easily extendable It's just a json format so it's easily extendable and It should make it easy for new technologies to be integrated into kubernetes Even if they're not based on the strio v device plugin Yeah, but are there any cases where devices are created by like a cni plugin instead of the you know any of the number of device plugins? Yes, for example, the host device cni and also the user space cni that exposes virtual user devices The spec also contemplates that use case um and it supports vhost user devices Uh in that case how it works is uh, it works in a slightly different way But um, so how it works is the cni exposes a new capability And if multis detects this capability, it will pass down Pass down basically the path where the cni has to put the the devising profile that we just saw Okay, so you're saying that the cni instead of the device plugin now does all the work but it has to deal with creating this file and Making sure it exists and then writing the file and taking care of all that td stuff, right? Well, yes, uh, but Most of the functionality has already been implemented in the library It's called the network attachment definition client and so um the cni should just import that library uh to Basically write the file and once that file is written Then multis will take care of the rest basically. Oh cool. Okay, so I'll now all this information is ultimately available from with the pod, right? Right. Well good. All right. So now I just have to write a script or a small program to parse all this data in the container I'm not really looking forward to trying to parse json in a script, but I guess I can do that Well, I told you I've already been through these. Um, Let me send you a link You're gonna like it Okay Open that link. Okay. I got it. Let me let me share it back over here All right sharing All right, uh app net utility. Okay. I see wait. This is a go module, right? Um, I think the only issue is that everything I'm dealing with is going to be in c Drop down to the api section Apis okay See they are go and see bindings. Oh, yeah, there's go and see I like that. Cool. All right, and um I see there are three apis One to get the cpu data One for get retrieving huge page data And then the third one is to retrieve all the interface data Uh, so has this repo been updated to support the new device infospec? We were talking about Yep It's very useful. It hides all the complexities of parsing the network status annotation um, environmental variables and system data and it offers a nice high-level api All right. Um, it's a lot here. I see um test pods dpdk app container images Yeah, there's a lot here. Yeah, it has some sample code on how to use The apis Oh, all right. Well, that'd be useful Um, all right. So what's this srv vf development? All right, there's a lot of stuff. Um, we've been talking about here. I see the network attachment definitions and config maps So um, so even if I decide not to use it it shows all the different places in a container to collect the data and how to utilize it Um, this looks useful. I'll start playing with this. Um Do you have a list of all those repos that we talked about? I said we was a network client Or network something. Um, yeah Yeah, I got a list Uh, let me show you man. I I need to um, invite you to my cube compression patient You're just asking the right questions. So you have my um deck. Yep. Still got it So I think it's on slide 13 If you check there Okay, um, I see yeah multis and srv network device plugin some of the stuff we've been talking about. Oh, there it is network attachment client Um, I see most of these projects are under the network plumbing working group um I thought that um the network plumbing working group just wrote the multinet spec that multis was coded to And that was it Yes, that was some time ago, but They have recently approved a new open governance model They have brought together many projects um Including all of those and now it's a very healthy and diverse community Well, this is perfect. I'll try to use some of this in my work. Um, but you're gonna be out. Aren't you if I run into some issues? Yeah, for two weeks, actually You still have that cube come slide Yeah, now go to the next Uh, uh slide. Okay, and you'll see yeah There you go. Those are the upstream meetings. Uh, you have links to the meeting dogs and you have the meeting cadence there Um, all right, I like it, but you know, that's one of those things I'm still like new to all this and learning all these technologies I think if I went to one of these upstream communities, I'd just get lost and feel kind of out of place a little bit Everyone there was new to it at some point If you have any issues, just reach out to them. They are um, a very, um Very kind and they will be happy to help you. I'm sure Oh, well good. That was real helpful. I really do appreciate it. I'm sorry for delaying our original meeting What was the original meeting for? I've already forgotten Uh, it's our virtual bureau clock zoom Oh, I'm sorry to delay that for work stuff. Uh, let me go grab a beer Yeah

How to be a pretty click correct about that. I think that there are a minority, but they speak a lot, and they are very active. At some point, I was looking for documentation, explaining carbon dating, and things like that. And I made that in Google, and I was surprised because half of the videos were about dating is crap. It was skeptical about evolution. It was skeptical about dating. And I said, well, incredible. I didn't believe about that. They have the easy job, right? Because we arrive, and we say, you know, climate change is changing. It would be some impact. It can be difficult. We'll have to cope with it, you know? And they arrive, and they say, well, don't worry. Everything was going to be fine. All these scientists are crazy. There is nothing occurring. It is natural. Everything gets back to normal at some point. Who do you want to listen? The guy with the sugar in the hand, or the guy with the lemon, you know?

I'll go back to it. The amount needed to trade futures is $400 is the minimum for Ninja Trader. The recommended absolute minimum is $2,500. This is if you are self-funded, meaning you're going to fund your own account. And if you're asking, well, what's the ideal minimum, then I would say $8,000. I hope you're taking notes right now if not roll back the tape. If you want to smash the markets and you are somebody who is, if you have the funds to do so, what is the absolute ideal $25,000 is the ideal for a personal account? The $25,000 is the same PDT rule that you would apply to stocks. But if you were to take that same $25,000 from the PDT rule where you're at a disadvantage trading stocks, if you took that $25,000 and brought it to a futures trading account with the leverage that we have being able to trade up to 50 contracts, that will allow you to trade up to 50 contracts. Again, my max that I'm comfortable trading is 40 contracts. I try to stay there at the 40 mark. However, I know that I could do 10 more. There is a limit on futures for personal accounts. If you're not registered with the CME, then you have a 50 contract limit for NASDAQ, Russell and the Dow. You have 100 contract limit on the ES. There are limits you can check with your broker. But in general, those are the limits.

What is up guys and welcome back to my channel in this exciting video I will show you how to use the time-lapse function on the Sony a7 III and Show you my workflow afterwards on how I edit using Final Cut Pro X So I use time lapses to show the passage of time and to enhance the story by giving it more emotion I especially like to create time lapses in beautiful places when I travel So when I do my time lapses I used to use a standard intervalometer like this one that costs around 25 bucks that I got from Amazon that it could just plug in and use but with the new 3.0 firmware update, which was released in 2019 on the Sony a7 III it now has a built-in intervalometer that we will test now So the Sun will set around 9 30 p.m. I want to make sure I get there early enough to Set everything up. I'm hoping to get a nice sunset. It really depends on the weather Otherwise, we just have to live with it quite early, but I still want to pack my stuff and head off So let's do that You hear those cars Damn, it's loud out here Sorry about that quiet So I'm here outside on a bridge and I'm looking towards the Sun that is about to set I already set up my camera on a tripod. I already dialed in the settings the camera is pointing towards the Sun and While it's recording I will explain to you what settings I used to record this time lapse I used the free Lumos Sun and moon tracker app that helped me Predict the position of the Sun. It's important that you look for motion in your shot So in this example, it would be the clouds moving and the Sun setting I used the aperture priority so that the exposure stays the relatively the same I turn off the autofocus so that it won't change and Turn off the autofocus so that it won't change and set the white balance to manual to have the same color Temperature throughout the time lapse So I choose to set the aperture to around 14 so that the whole shot is in focus Make sure you shoot in raw so you get the highest quality out of your images As a rule of thumb for quick moving subjects like people walking or cars driving I choose an interval of one two three seconds for slower moving subjects like the Sun setting or the clouds moving I choose an interval of five to ten seconds the number of shots I set to as much as possible. So on the a7 III it would be 9999 Now let's do the math. So for every five seconds I get 12 photos per minute, which means I get 120 photos every 10 minutes and I want to get at least 140 photos per time lapse Which will give me a 10 second clip length. That means I have to wait at least 20 minutes to get that desired clip length Don't worry. You don't have to calculate all of that in your head Just use a time lapse calculator app to figure it out autofocus tracking sense I set to mid silent shooting interval I turn on so that I don't hear the camera every time it takes a photo So the time lapse has now been running for about 20 minutes And I should have a 10 second clip length by now Let's head back to my studio and show you how I put it all together in final cup pro x So what you want to do is create a new project Um, I created a folder called time lapse and a project folder. I will name this time lapse time lapse So I will name this event images I will press command i to import all the images that I took for the time lapse time lapse images As you can see here all the images stored So I will just click on images and import So we imported all the images with a new project. I will name this time lapse Select all the images and press e to Add it to the timeline. So as you can see the duration of each clip is 10 seconds So I want to change that by pressing command a to select all images and then control d to change the duration And I select one for one second and press enter. So now we have all the images Set to one second. I press shift z to fit it to the timeline So I will select all images again and create a compound clip press alt g And name this time lapse clip. That's perfect As you can see there's some black bars on the side. I want to remove that press the transform tool and Zoom it in until you won't see the black bars on the side I want to color grade this time lapse a little bit. I add color finale If you don't have color finale, you can just uh use these normal color wheels Just gonna grade it a little I want to make the time lapse move So what I will do is turn on the transformation tool press the Keyframe button go to the end of the clip And zoom in All right, so let's export this video and let's see the end result of it So that was the final result of my time lapse video I hope you enjoyed it. If you did, please consider subscribing and hit that notification bell button to get the latest update On my channel. If you have any questions, leave it in the comment section below Let me know what you would like to see next. All right. I'm done for today I'm gonna go outside and enjoy the sun. You probably should do the same And we will see each other the next time

Against Fioncek in the first games. Thank you for bearing with us. We're over now We've got Rafa come up next as well double-headed. We'll get that back on in a second, but Egas Fioncek is in trouble already and we did say Neema is a big hitter and Fits the mold of a scary player against Fioncek so so far that's happened 15 all Neema with a big return 15 all She's got the break already This is the type of player that Fioncek has lost to all year or at least had trouble with this kind of big hitting low ranked player unseated random 15 all and Shriyantek serves a second serve down a break Serving to the back of the Neema before now from Shriyantek in the back of Neema for now Shriyantek into the net 15 30 15 30 and Shriyantek did play Davis a Couple of days ago and was a little shaky to be honest it didn't look great in that second set got the job done in the end, but Definitely had Had her troubles Serve down to the four Neema a foreigner from Shriyantek for the four Neema for now from Neema goes long She's hitting so hard 30 all 30 all another big point And Shriyantek serves into the four Neema iron that goes long on the return 40 30 Shriyantek to get on the board. So the winner of this will play against Pagula in the quarter finals on Wednesday The winner of the Rafa match will take on Roublet has been back in now from Neema that goes wide Shriyantek gets on the board in this first set nerves settling in all right Make sure I've got everything going everything works. Everything's fine. Everything's good. Okay, let's go We haven't done we did the preview earlier, but We'll do the preview again because for those who are just joining us who maybe missed the Missed the preview of Shriyantek earlier. These two have never played They haven't played so there's no head-to-head to speak up But they have had the same road to this stage So you can see their Shriyantek winning against Davis in straight sets in the third round and Neema Beating Zhang very good win. We all we all know Zhang is a very promising player She got the winning straight sets there, but both players have not dropped a set for the entire week So Neema has has not dropped a set and Shriyantek We well we expect her not to drop sets winner of this place Pagula in the quarter finals so Julie Neema she is 108 in the world 23 year old from Germany She's five foot ten right-handed seven wins nine losses on the year no titles this year But she has got a quarter final of Wimbledon to her name Which is why she has so many wins or seven wins as she mainly played on the ITF circuit, which is the Challenger circuit The second tier of events and Conte bait Watson are her best wins And we've got Shriyantek number one in the world 21 year old from Poland. She's five foot nine right-handed 50 wins seven losses on the year Six titles to her name this year, but there's nine career titles including a couple of French Robins Zachary Conte better her best wins of the year. There you go. All right That was a special We did that for the people all the people watching the replay because you probably want to be like friggin preview guy These two have never played by the way, so I'll say it for the tenth time That's really good to find win up. Okay Shriyantek gets the first point here love 15 Nice winner there from Shriyantek Rafa and Tiafo coming on very soon You know that's gonna be electric You know that's gonna be electric and we'll do the preview of that later Lovely shot from Shriyantek. Gotta love that preview. Yeah, look We could just skip the preview altogether next time, but I like doing the preview I like I think it helps right it gives everyone an idea of what might happen and Also, I think we all learn about players that we don't usually watch as Neemai hits it in the net love 30 Love 30 love 30 Shriyantek to get back the break as Neemai serves Down the T the back in a Shriyantek and Shriyantek hits it out good serve from Neemai 1530 don't ever ditch the previews. Oh, I won't we've been doing the previews since the start of the channel almost so It's a staple of the channel And it sets the match up nicely, you know Gives us an idea of What to expect? Let's be the return now from Shriyantek off a let from Neemai now the roof is open on Arthur Ashe as well. So We've got the roof open on both courts the sun's shining and The rain might come later, but probably tonight 1530 Shriyantek Looking to get that break back as Neemai hits a four-hand to the back of the Shriyantek back a four-hand Neemai Again at the back of the Shriyantek to the four-hand Neemai on the stretch. What a shot. What a shot Neemai puts it away 30 all Man She has some power Neemai has got some power Bloody hell she hits the ball hard 30 all serve is in the net From Neemai second serve second serve Our wide great second serve Shriyantek was thinking it was going down the tee Neemai tricked her 40-30 Shriyantek just off balance Like I said, these are the type of players that Shriyantek has trouble with these unpredictable You know players these aggressive unpredictable aggressive players First serve is a fault from Neemai a second serve and she double faults gives Shriyantek a free point back to Deuce Elf gates Let's go Deuce again or Deuce for the first time in this game No break points against Neemai yet, but we're still early Neemai serves Now why are the four of Shriyantek back in a Neemai into the back end of Shriyantek the back end of Neemai Back in that Shriyantek again to the back in a Neemai Shriyantek back end down the line goes into the four Neemai Into the four Shriyantek who hits it in the net Shriyantek is not going to be able to play aggressive today. I would probably categorize Neemai's game as OstaPenko-esque That's what I think She play who she plays like similar to OstaPenko There's been a slice there from Neemai that goes long and it's back to Deuce I Would say Neemai is is on OstaPenko like now not in a motion Well, I haven't seen her play that much, but emotionally I would say she's probably a little bit more solid, but Game-wise, I mean she is aggressive and she hits the ball hard and that is what OstaPenko does when she's playing her best Serve into the back of the Shriyantek return to the front of Neemai who hits a drop shot. Okay, I changed my mind She's basically a pusher Advantage that was a great drop shot good change up advantage Neemai to take The lead with the break 3-1 lead is we're gonna return out of the back of Neemai. That's a winner down the line What a shot from Neemai that's a that's an OstaPenko shot That's an OstaPenko shot all right nice from Neemai a very nice shot Shriyantek's got her work cut out for it today 3-1 by the way, I love for a Francis T. Alpha was a goat Well, he's wearing a shirt that says goat. I love it. I love it He's wearing the Serena hoodie as he walks out on court goat The goat hoodie. I love that from Big Fo the man It's got swag. He's also bringing out like a whole pair of bunch of Nike's as well bunch of sneakers Love to see that I want that hoodie Big Fo rocking the goat Serena goat hoodie raffa wearing his normal outfit. I love 15 or his daytime outfit Shriyantek serves to the back of Neemai and Neemai puts it in the net and it's 15 all Big foe gonna give Nadal issues. I agree. I seriously think big foe Could do something scary today Like this is a chance for big foes today Not that Raffa's played bad or anything like that But big foe in front of his home crowd. I mean he played Federer in a five-step match a couple of years ago when he was a kid Like a 19 year old TR foe push Federer to the brink. I Think you can push Raffa today I think he's gonna make Raffa make work for this 30-15 Shriyantek trying to hold serve Serve at what the back in a Neemai or that's in the net from Neemai a good serve Shriyantek No, I think he's gonna beat Raffa no No, I don't But I do think he I think he can push him But also this could be one of those matches where Raffa knows his opponent is going to be like that Like, you know be up for the challenge and Raffa could take his level to a whole new level We haven't seen since a French So Raffa could rise to the occasion too. He knows what what it is, you know, he knows it's a day match He knows why they put him on during the day. That's a good shot there from Shriyantek She gets on the board again, but Neemai has the break three two Yeah, Raffa knows why they put him on the day session on today While they put him on a holiday on the day session against an American And the US Open are not gonna They're not gonna do Raffa any favors All right, let's go through the Raffa preview because these guys have actually played before a couple of times But I guess TR4 I mean if you're TR4 maybe look away from the head to head Raffa has lost a couple of sets to this stage though Maybe a little bit nerves. I don't know We'll find out if he can change that he did beat Gasky easily though in the last round and big foe had a big win over a little man in Schwartzman, no disrespect. He's a short king Schwartzman TR4 has won every single match he's in straight sets and he's put a bunch of tie breaks Raffa's lost two sets on his way here He lost the first set against Hichikata and he lost the first set against Vanini both coming back in four and then against Gasky He took him to the bakery All right big foe TR4 Francis TR4. He's number 26 in the world 24-year-old from America Six foot two right-handed 21 wins 18 losses on the year. No titles this year But he has got a career title to his name and his best friends are against Baratini and Fakina And here he is Raffa Nadal number three at the moment, but he could be world number one By this time next week 36 year old from Spain He's six foot one left-handed 35 wins four losses on the year four titles as well including the two slams the French and the Australian 92 career titles including a bunch of US opens and he has Djokovic and Medvedev as his best wins and The record is 2-0 in favour of Raffa. I don't know why it says TR4 in favour of Raffa Raffa's won both their matches in straight sets. I don't know why it says TR4 ignore that that is not correct My bad Sometimes when you don't sleep you forget to change the names Anyways, they're coming out of court any oh they've starting their match any minute now Raffa's gonna serve first Let's get back to Shriyantek because she is in trouble Love 15 as she has a return in the net Shriyantek And it's 15 all 15 all Nadal is actually 48 is he interesting 15 all so it goes down to the back end of Shriyantek and Shriyantek hits a wide 30-15. Now Deb you are our resident Raffa super fan On a scale of 1 to 10 how nervous are you Deb? Just Deb. I don't want anyone else to answer the question. I'm talking directly to Deb How nervous are you on a scale of 1 to 10? 10 Bloody hell Deb There's been a sir a volley there from ah Neemai in the net. What are you doing? Oh? My god Neemai just gave that point away. Why don't I just miss it completely 30 all a 10 that's bloody crazy. I Didn't think you were that know are you really that nervous? Man Neemai that was just a bad miss 30 all And if you lose in this game that point was why Deb's right on target. Maybe you're nervous because you are such a big fan Maybe I asked the wrong the wrong person Raffa fans. Okay, everybody if you are a Raffa fan as Shriyantek hits that in the net again Shriyantek missing a lot of returns on the second serve of Neemai. Um, how nervous are you at a 10 Raffa fans? About this match. I would say You should be nervous You should be nervous, but not super nervous, you know, it's not like he's playing Jokovic Everyone's saying 10 Some are saying five four seven. Yeah, I would say like a six or a seven You know, it should be he should be worried Raffa, but he shouldn't be like I Am gonna lose this like he should be concerned Raffa. Yeah, this is not gonna be easy It's myself included. No, I'm not around. I'm not a Raffa fan. I'm a goat fan not just a Raffa Raffa fan, I'm also a fan of Jokovic and Federa All right, so there's a couple of a couple of mid-range numbers. Okay, let's see what happens here Shriyantek again Can't do anything with the second serve and that's where Neemeyer's winning at the moment Advantage Neemeyer and she tries to stay in front Carlos Bernadas is the chair umpire for the Raffa match for any of those playing at home as we get a backhand from Neemeyer that goes wide I Had no time to make my tea. So I have to make it on stream live tea stream That sounds weird tea time All right back to Deuce Shriyantek trying to get the break back As Neemeyer serves, but then she doesn't first serves a fault second serve Shriyantek needs to make this return Serve out while the for the Shriyantek good return the for Neemeyer for now Shriyantek in the net again Shriyantek is getting the second serve chances, but she's not Able to take him and that'll be frustrating advantage Neemeyer. All right Neemeyer Storm Sanders is in the in the Neemeyer box Are they playing doubles together? Must be a doubles partner The Aussie Storm Storm Sanders back into backhand now as we get a fine from Neemeyer down the line and that goes long Just goes long from Neemeyer and it's back to Deuce All right Raffa's gonna serve first We'll get to him in two seconds That was what was just out from Neemeyer Just went long back to Deuce As Neemeyer serves the back in the Shriyantek find a Neemeyer is good Shriyantek gets it, but Neemeyer volleys it away Very nice volley nice little backhand volley pirouette Advantage Neemeyer now Raffa's on He is serving first We have got you Covered ready to go Raffa Nadal We get the scores up as well Let me know who's gonna win I've got Raffa in I mean I want to say five, but I'm gonna say four I think it's gonna be close, but Raffa's gonna get the win In four as Neemeyer serves the Fawnish Shriyantek find a Neemeyer into the Fawnish Shriyantek who hits it wide Neemeyer four two stays in front All right time for the scores. Where is it? There we go Get the stats up as well All right Raffa with the first point make that the second point as well 30 love 30 love 30 love by the way we're almost at a hundred and eighty thousand one hundred running four away Don't forget to subscribe if you haven't already 30 love serve as a fault second serve As Shriyantek in big trouble at the moment as Shriyantek hits a another good forehand But Neemeyer is hitting very clean as Shriyantek missing everything Love 15 over there as we're back in now to the Fawn of Raffa and Raffa hits it long 30-15 All right 30-15 Raffa trying to win the first game of the match 30-15 first serve as a fault second serve as Raffa serves A double fault 30 all All right 30 all Raffa giving away Give me a double fault this early. That's a bit strange to see from Raffa 30 all Raffa by the way is wearing his daytime outfit White shirt with the I guess they're like a rosy pink red Kind of short color As opposed to his maroon burgundy color Night outfit that we've seen the last few nights But everybody knows why this match is on during the day, right? Does everybody know why? Because the us open helped their their own of course they would every grand slam helped their locals. You know that it's not It's not a mystery. It's not even a it's not even a A conspiracy it is true The us open have the us players Best interest at heart the best way tfo is going to win today is to be playing right at this second Not at night Not on a different day now. We can't pick the draw, but you know it's worked out that way Anyways 30 all is tfo to the back end of raffa back enough in big foe into the fawn of raffa The back end of tfo fawn ever raffa doesn't need to be hit Big foe hits it wide 40 30 40 30 Let's get back to trancek for two seconds because it's 15 30 over there nemae returns. That's a great return She comes in with a volley and she feels they can't get it Neemae has break points again 15 40 Wow Neemae putting up a big fight First serve is a fault from raffa. He's trying to get that first Trying to get that first Game Neemae is trying to get the double break trancek serves That's raffa wins the first game trancek serves down the t in ace. Okay What was it a fault? Oh just missed second serve Just missed from trancek second serve trancek to the fawn of nemae a fawn from trancek again to the fawn of nemae Fawn after trancek is nemae hit to find again that goes long trancek survives 30 40 30 40 And these type of players Have troubled trancek this year When she's played her toughest matches, they've all been against this nemae a type of player 30 40 trancek serves into the net Second serve second serve Goes down the t the fawn of nemae a fawn as trancek into the fawn of nemae slices it in the net. Oof terrible shot And we're back to deuce another close game for trancek trying everything Just to hang around Back to deuce is trancek serves a fault second serve second serve trancek winner of this place pagula And she serves down the back end of nemae a great return trancek in trouble nemae drop shots and that's too good nemae going with the power and precision and the finesse And she gets another chance to break advantage nemae as tr focused the 30 love and trancek's just reacting To what nemae is doing because she can't do anything else trancek serves The back end of nemae a fawn as trancek into the fawn of nemae on the stretch trancek with a fawn in the net nemae fell down and trancek made the error 5-2 to the german Wow i'm not i'm not surprised Hmm, i'm not shocked What's happening with trancek because we've seen this before But i am a little bit I'm more surprised that she's not making like not taking chance on the second serve like she's not she's making errors But i don't think this is a total shock If you've watched fiontech this year Does that make sense? I mean how many i mean yeah i'm a little bit like puzzled Nemae by the way fell over and trancek could hit that anywhere, but she hit in the net Fiontech is not being that good since the french And by the way, we all know of a also the entire year like if i name all the plays to beat fiontech They all have very similar things in common Like i told you they're exactly like nemae They have a big aggressive game And fiontech plays well when she's the aggressor but Or if it's on clay when she has a little bit extra time But when it's on a fast court or a or a faster court than clay Against a hard hitter if she struggles You know that is her kryptonite every player has A kryptonite No one is unbeatable Federis kryptonite was raffa, right? Elkres is kryptonite is sinna Djokovic and Nadal are there each their own kryptonite and the dal's kryptonite is also hard hitting players Kind of like fiontech is right now so every player has An opponent that they just don't i mean jokovic is kryptonite was stan right for a while was vivrinco Every player has A style of player that they don't like to play some players hate playing pushes Or hate playing defensive baseliners because they can't get the pace they like so You know and we're finding out that fiontech's Got a problem with big aggressive players Just like raffa does i mean they're they're very similar As nema gets a 30 love two points away from the first set Thank you james. Yeah, look There's not a coincidence at this point As nema serves a fault second serve Unless you're serena and your only kryptonite is age that's true Yeah, father time is serena's kryptonite 30 15 Yeah Father time was kryptonite serena's kryptonite serena probably had krypton someone someone probably beat her in the uh You know in the early days that was probably someone but over the last decade the only thing that's serena is Lost to is the fact that she hasn't been able to play an injury and stuff Well, i've been stiller back in the house watching his favorite player He's also wearing a dirty Stained shirt maybe it's designer as nema double fought twice No 30 all I guess it's a german thing Double fault again Neema trying to win this first set As tiafo hits it wide and raffa gets the lead two one They're just ticking along over there. We'll get back to the boys after this as shianze hits that wide on the return Neema 40 30 set point To the german Who is absolutely blowing serena shriantek off the court not serena We wish we wish serena serena was here. We miss you come back 40 30 40 30 First serve is a fault from Neema a second serve Second serve is a double fold again Don't say it back to deuce Back to deuce set point Given back three double faults in this game by the way Neema just can't find those serves First serve is a fault second serve Serve out why the fort is shriantek find out nema to the back end of shriantek back in our nema Again at the back end shriantek who puts it wide And nema gets an advantage nema has not faced a break point so far. So that just Makes it even worse for shriantek shriantek just can't Can't get it going right now advantage nema nema with a serve Out wide at the back end of shriantek find out nema into the open court shriantek on the stretch in the net Neema take the first set six two and iga shriantek has a big problem She has a big problem Let's get back to the boys because we've got a Start and oh rafa Rafa with a banana forehand cross court passing shot winner That is a rafa thing take no u.s.

the net Shrantec gets it out Shrantec makes it so Difficult when she misses those shots Why is she trying to hit the ball A million miles an hour That's ridiculous She could have hit that ball in the open court Without trying to hit it A million miles an hour Sometimes you're just going to play it Smart, not harder Back the ball and then Smack it out for no reason It's back to Rafa As Big foe hits a winner, 30 all Now we're not going to do Tomatowicz Get stuffed Get stuffed Tomatowicz Get stuffed, we're not going to do that No way But we did get it So that was good As Neymar gets to advantage

from Rafa, 7 from T-R-F-O Back to Deuce As Big foe serves Nice Bang His fourth ace of the day T-R-F-O He's winning all these second serve points too Advantage Big foe As he tries to consolidate the break He serves into the back end of Rafa Volley from T-R-F-O Rafa the pass is a winner T-R-F-O He shouldn't know that was coming Rafa doing Rafa things back to Deuce Banana four and down the line As soon as you saw Rafa Near that ball you're like That's going to be a winner That's also Something we've seen a million times Back to Deuce As Big foe serves A let Back to Deuce As Rafa looks ready to break back If you're just joining us T-R-F-O Just broke Rafa In the previous game He hits the back end now across court And that's a winner again Big foe What a shot Advantage T-R-F-O Again to get to 5-3 Alright just take 5 We're all good Not playing any more games Out from T-R-F-O second serve Also it's 30-40 break point For Nimayah to take another break Against Fiontech In the second set We had a four and out of the back end of T-R-F-O Back end of Rafa on the stretch Big foe lets it go in Big foe you got to hit those mate He let it fly And it landed in by like this much I know it's my fault but we Come on everyone else has stopped It was in by this much Just a bad Interaction By the way T-R-F-O Sorry Nimayah breaks Nimayah breaks In the second Egas Fiontech in big trouble Break in the second Egas Fiontech is in big trouble She's got to tell over her face What's going on Big foe serves an ace Big foe doing a good job here Fiontech in deep trouble And again did anyone take Nimayah At the start of that match Because This is not We've seen this before with Fiontech As big foe hits a winner And it's 5-3 big foe Looking for that first set Did anyone take I mean she was a massive outsider before this match Did anyone take her as like For a win A lot of people did Plus 400, yeah she was a super underdog But She fits the mold of the players that beat Fiontech So it's like It's not a surprise that that's happening Fiontech is just playing bad Yeah I mean Nimayah is playing aggressive but it's forcing Fiontech to play Over aggressive because Fiontech panics She panics when she gets pushed around Now when she's not the aggressor And she's not the one hitting winners She gets nervous Rafa loses game 9 so he can serve First and second set You mean lose this game? No Lose the last, wait lose this game? No If he loses this game he's going to Serve second In the second set so no he needs this game Rafa Love 15 Let's get back to Rafa He's down love 15 As we're going to serve down the tee and Tiafo hits it long 15 all Is it time for Rafa fans to be Concerned Yes And also no It's Rafa but I would be more Concerned Than I was against in the Fanini match I think at the moment It's a lot scarier than what we saw Fanini do If Tiafo has to play well in the second That's where it's at. You might lose the first set If you're Rafa but he comes big in the second So you got to Tiafo's got to be ready for the second set Storm has been a fine now Hurricane Nadal Has been a fine down the line from Big foe that goes long and it's 30-15 We know the storm is coming Storm is coming Big foe with a back Every turn winner What is going on 30 all 2 points away Tiafo Thanks for the analysis, no worries Smurfet That's my job Sometimes I Do it properly Sometimes I actually Do my job 30 all Big point coming up Carlos Bernardo is ready to press the buzzer 30 all Serving the net from Rafa Second serve Also 30 all with Neymire But we'll get to them in a second Second serve Rafa Serving the back end of Tiafo Return to the front of Rafa Back end of Tiafo Rafa's volley is too good Too good from Rafa 40-30 As Neymire faces a break point She hasn't been broken yet She's taken in the heels Rafa survives Hey, thank you Brian for coming On board Thank you for becoming a goat As Rafa serves A fault She comes to the net Neymire with a back hand pass Neymire runs Can't get it Rafa breaks back Back on serve Rafa regains Control over the match As Rafa hits that Rafa stays in touch Big fo Serving for The first set Good work from Shionsek as well I was going to say We're not going to play that game anymore Not now anyway, we'll play it later Let's answer questions Answer my question The question check I don't know why people don't respect Pagula You've got to give Pagula her props She played well She deserves her Her due Double upset on the cards Well so far Shionsek is in way more trouble than Rafa is Shionsek is in serious trouble The way she's playing I don't know how she comes back Shionsek is in serious trouble Shionsek is in serious trouble Shionsek is in serious trouble I don't know how she comes back Unless Neymar completely loses her mind Shionsek is playing terrible Shionsek is playing terrible Whereas Big fo is playing okay Shionsek is playing okay But Rafa isn't Rafa isn't I don't think Rafa is in big trouble He's also playing okay Rafa So a couple of points here and there And you come back But Shionsek is playing terrible And you should be worried Because she is not playing well And she's on love 30 now She just broke She's about to give the break straight back Serve to the back end of Neymar Back end from Shionsek to the back end of Neymar Back end of Shionsek Into the back end of Neymar Again to the back end of Shionsek Neymar with a half volley is terrible What is she doing? Why are you coming to the net? Alright we'll get back to Big fo in a second As Neymar Neymar headbutt that ball Half volley off the shoulder Which went with the shoulder The shoulder shot As Rafa hits the ball in the net 15 love Bro imagine if Nadal loses Um We said that at the start of the match It wouldn't be a surprise It wouldn't be a surprise But it wouldn't be like The craziest thing that's ever happened Because Big fo is legit I think Big fo Can beat Nadal One day Maybe today is that day Who knows We'll find out in the next few hours As Big fo hits a winner that's a great shot 30 love Serve now from Shionsek Back end now to back end as Neymar Tries to get the break again Neymar with a slice Down the line that's a great shot from Shionsek That is how the world number one plays tennis Usually 40-30 The first set Yeah I don't know if Big fo can play any better That's the problem with Big fo Is this his best When does the purple patch end Because he's hitting the ball so hard And it goes in every time As Shionsek serves an ace She gets back to lead 3-2 Set points for Big fo To take the first set Why do I call him Big fo Because that's his nickname He's got a chain around his neck So we adopted that And we call him that too Because we love nicknames Some of you like to call me names but that's not nice 40 love Double fold No dickhead is not a nickname That's not a nickname that's just rude Alright first double fold of the day For Big fo Still got 2 set points But the thing is I don't know How much better Big fo can play And Rafa is not playing his best He has time to grow He could definitely I mean the second set's where it's at The second set's where it's at 40-15 It's almost, if Big fo wins his first set We're even, you know, it's level Now Rafa's not done Hell no It's how does Big fo come back In the second Served into the back end of Rafa Sorry 4-0 Rafa is a fault from Big fo Second serve Into the back end of Rafa and that's a winner Rafa hits a winner 40-30 Now things get a little tighter Rafa's sister in the house by the way 40-30 As Tiafo has his third chance Serve Into the net Second serve Second serve Big fo See you later Art Project, we'll see you soon A bit of serve down into the back end of Rafa And Tiafo to the slice of Rafa Tiafo with a forehand Into the open court Rafa with a slice gets it Tiafo forehand It's good Rafa gets it though Big fo with a volley Thank you Matthew Alright Big fo gets the first set 6-4 Look, yeah look I would love to have a new US Open Champion Always love new champions Hey, thank you Celo For the 20 Canadian Or 20 Super Cigar again, appreciate that Now Okay Rafa's leading the court Now Rafa fans We've seen this already this week He did it against Tiafo He did it against Fanini We saw it against Hedricata And what happens next Is Big fo Has to keep his intensity To make this A match Because what happened in the matches before Where the first set has gone the opposite way To Rafa or against Rafa They've dropped the intensity And Rafa's come back with a vengeance All of a sudden Rafa's in a fourth set He's up two sets of one So Really interesting It depends on how he plays now It's not what he did in the first set That was fun But now is when the match starts Right now for Tiafo If Big fo sits back and relaxes Because he won his first set against Rafa Ever He's going to get steamrolled So this is where the match starts For Big fo Hopefully he has that mentality And I guess hopefully for Rafa fans He's sitting back on 40-30 by the way We'll see what happens Rafa's going to the bathroom To let Tiafo celebrate the first set As Let's get back to her for a sec Because she Is in big trouble Or she was in big trouble As Nemaio can't get that one Back to Deuce We'll see how that plays out Big fo This week To get the break And lead For the first time today To lead this Match With a break For the first time Nemaio serves Down the tee For Nemaio is wide For the first time Nemaio serves Down the tee For Nemaio is wide For two Shriyantek She regains control Rafa's going to the bathroom So We'll wait for that to happen Whatever that is Okay Shriyantek regaining a little bit of control Of this one Rafa fans Again, as I said in the previous matches I wouldn't be worried If you're a Rafa fan, I wouldn't be worried I'd be slightly concerned Like, oh, this kind of is annoying It's like a bother It's not a problem It's like, oh god We're going to win four again, come on It's a pain But I wouldn't say it's Something to really freak out about I'll tell you if it is In the next set I'll tell you when it's really Something to freak out about Right now it's just annoying As Shriyantek hits that wide And Nemaio Gets a second point, 15-0 And Banatas and Tiafo going at it Big foes like What is going on Where is he? And Carlos Banatas is like, hey Where the hell are you, Rafa? And he's like, I'm taking a shit Alright, 15-0 That was a shit joke Backhand to backhand rally In the net from Shriyantek She's still not looking solid 15-30 Making too many errors Now I'm pretty sure that at the U.S. Open Or at the Grand Slam They don't actually have a timer So the players can go to the bathroom as long as they want Because the ATP are the only ones who bought that rule in So the Grand Slam and the ATP Are not the same thing So I don't think there's a shot Like a clock That shows how long Rafa's been away for Because it doesn't actually matter There's no rule There's no official The ATP have You have to be back within 5 minutes But I don't think they have that at the U.S. Open I can't see a shot clock 4-4 and now Shriyantek goes again To the front of Nimayah On the stretch, Nimayah slices Into the backhand of Shriyantek Backhand of Nimayah To the backhand of Nimayah Into wide 15-40 Now Nimayah Had the same thing happen with Shriyantek Where Shriyantek left the court And Nimayah Was like where the hell is Shriyantek Why is she taking forever Rafa's taken a long time But there's no rule It's a medical timeout Well there should be a thing on the clock If it's a medical timeout There should be a timer There should be a medical timeout I think it's just a bathroom break 15-40 As a better return now from Nimayah Shriyantek comes in there Nimayah with a pass Shriyantek volleys Nimayah with a backhand pass That's a winner Nimayah is back and she's like Nimayah is getting involved She's like Come on USA You're on my side He has a chance Rafa's gonna lift Rafa will lift Now I know on some sites It's saying medical timeout But what would it be a medical timeout for He went to the bathroom I think it's a bathroom break Because if it was a medical timeout They would have shown a medical timeout clock And that's not on the screen So it's I don't think this is a medical timeout Even though I can see Live scores are showing medical Rafa took his bag I think this is a toilet break But there's no rule for how long that can be And Tiafo is like what is going on Because he's ready to go And Tiafo is starting to get His legs are starting to get stiff I don't think it's a medical timeout Unless Rafa comes back with bandages I mean I Nancy says commentators are annoying What are we doing 8 minutes by the way The last game or the last point was played And big foes just making jokes But I mean he should be upset If it is a bathroom break It's kind of ridiculous And if it's a medical timeout there should be a clock So whatever it is Rafa comes back with all these bags Rafa comes back with his bag That was a toilet break That was a toilet break A very long toilet break A 9 minute toilet break Hey look Get angry all you want Rafa but He's not breaking any rules He's not breaking any rules He didn't break any rules There is no Timer For toilet breaks at Grand Slam You can go to the bathroom for 10 minutes That's fine It's the ATP Tour that have timeouts If it was a medical timeout Then they should have shown the clock for TRFO Because That medical timeout was more than 5 minutes So I don't think that wasn't a medical timeout Unless They would have shown medical timeout I don't think it was medical If you're saying it's medical Let me know in the chat where you're reading that Because He took his whole bag Why would he take his whole bag for a medical timeout He took an overnight bag In the toilet Rafa 15 love They said just now Who said Tennis channel ESPN said it was in a medical timeout They didn't look medical The umpire would have announced it There's been a volley there from Rafa From Big 4 30 love The ESPN announced it There had been a bathroom break and medical timeout Oh both A toilet break with the medical Well the umpire usually says Over the announcement unless I missed it But the umpire would have said Rafa Nadal is getting a medical timeout So I mean unless I missed it The umpire didn't tell the crowd did he 15 30 Let's get back to Neemire who's down I said Sorry Neemire who's up a set Looking to go down a break The umpire said nothing Peaches If the umpire didn't tell the crowd There was no timeout I don't think ESPN got that right I don't think ESPN That didn't That was just an extended toilet break Can't return that one 30 love You're right who cares I mean the chat seems to be care pretty much 30 all Who cares Someone in the chat cares As that goes in the net from Neemire Okay 30 40 It's Fiontech to get the break There you go juice cares Say there you go one person cares One person cared 30 40 A chance for Fiontech to get the break early In the second as Rafa Gets the first game of the second set Look Alfie I know you're a Rafa fan So you don't want to you just want to be like doesn't matter If you took too much time in the bathroom Let's move on I understand You don't want to talk about it But hey it has to be discussed There's been a foreign rally Now to the Fion of Neemire Fiontech down the line is wide She's can't find a range And it's back to deuce But I get it You don't want to talk about it I know why And Fiontech just again can't Find her shots but that's because Neemire Is hitting so hard And Fiontech screamed after that shot as well She is not having a good day And Fiontech is really really having a shit one Deuce again Has to be to serve now Neemire That's a fault Second serve Rafa by the way just missed a ridiculous Shot Double fault Neemire Fiontech to take The break and then serve for the second And then we go on to a third Fun advantage Fiontech Neemire with a serve Serve down to the Fiontech and that goes long on the return Good serve from Neemire Big foe He's up 30-11 the first game of the second On his serve Neemire back to deuce Neemire serves She just needs a couple of big serves As she gets a four now from Fiontech and Neemire puts it long Alright Fiontech with another break point How many break points is that Just broken Neemire a few times today Advantage Fiontech Serve it while the back end of Fiontech Back end of Neemire drop shot Fiontech runs gets there And Neemire in the net And Fiontech gets the break again Okay Fiontech gets the break again 5-3 Fiontech Big foe gets the game and it's 1-1 Lovely shot there from Fiontech Great running and Neemire just Took one big lunging step and hit in the ground Thank you Mason Yeah we got to 108,000 yesterday When I was at Jess' house So I'm a little bit of tennis talk history In a different location so that's cool So thank you mate We might get to 110k By the end of the tournament Which would be cool, really cool Okay Fiontech Second set Serving to the back end of Neemire Just dumps that in the net with nothing on it Love 15 Bad shot from Fiontech Not the first though Just done that a lot today Love 15 Serving to the back end of Neemire Fiontech from Fiontech to the front end of Neemire Into the net from Neemire and it's 15-0 15-0 Fiontech serves again Fiontech runs away from a third As big photos can't Get the ball over the net at the moment It's on serve 30 love though As Neemire dumps it in the net 30-15 Good serve from Fiontech 30-15 As Fiontech serves the back end of Neemire Fiontech into the net 30-0 Nothing's come easy for Fiontech today And this is kind of like how she played the Australian Open Like She would win matches playing bad Until she played Collins Like does everybody remember Fiontech When she would lose Like she would just play horrible until that Until she played someone who was better So she's not playing great But she might still get through But she's going to be It's going to be hard to play like this against better players And Fiontech hits that out by a mile Not even close 30-40 30-40 Because remember she played that horrible match against Canepi And she somehow won By just showing grit and determination But Then she played Collins and Collins just whooped her So Fiontech's got to play better She's not going to win this title by playing like this There's too many good players to beat her If she stays like this And if she gets through today I mean we're assuming she Fights and wins this 30-40 second serve Fiontech double fold We're back on serve We're back on serve Neemire Can she level things up Fiontech trying to just Stay positive but my god She wants to wreck something Raffa by the way 40-15

I don't think so I don't think so Yeah, TRFO's hit some really good cross-court winners For sure TRFO's gone for broke on some shots And he's hit them in Only one breaker serve If Rafa was not playing well Or not serving well Or injured or whatever He would have served more double faults And he would have faced more breakpoints But this has been a very high quality match TRFO got that one break of serve Of that one breakpoint Rafa's doll It's up there And it's not a doll, it's an action figure It's a collectible, it's a figurine It's up there I'm in the corner Is it me or is Shrionte getting more and more unlikable? I don't think so I mean What's not to like? Did I watch the rugby? No I don't watch rugby Who is better? TRFO or Songa? Songa is better at the moment Yes, it's not a doll It's an action figure Collectible Dolls are toys This is not a toy This is a This is not a toy It's an action figure Is that what Woody said? Is that what Buzz said? Toy Story? Never very popular Just got hot in 30 second matches I don't know I don't think that's true I think Shrionte is very popular I'm surprised that New York is very evenly split It's very evenly split Okay, love 15 Big foe Under pressure, can Rafa get the break For the first time today There's a blonde lady Chug that beer Do it! Chug that beer, you're on camera Everybody, it's Labor Day Chug that beer lady Chug that, she's got it Taking forever Taking forever Chug, chug, chug She's gonna do it You alcoholic 15 all As TRFO tries to level things up here Holy crap That man has a hat What is under that hat that guy's filming That guy's got a camera under that hat That guy's hat was huge Did anybody else see that guy's hat That would put Pharrell to shame Bloody hell What's under there sir? What are you hiding under your hat sir? That was a ridiculously high hat That was a terrible high hat What was that? Return now to the forehand of TRFO That goes to the forehand of Rafa Backhand of TRFO TRFO with the forehand again to the backhand of Rafa Into the forehand of TRFO But Rafa's ball goes long 30-15 He's got a camera under there so he can film The match He's illegally filming Maybe he has a fridge in there Maybe 30-15 As TRFO serves down the tee The backhand of Rafa Again to the backhand of Rafa To the backhand of TRFO What a shot from BigFo He's hit some real clean shots today 40-15 The first time of this year, CamStream is on power with mine Yes, well that's good to hear By the way, Shriantek 30 love first game of the third We'll keep an eye on her But we'll keep an eye on BigFo first Do I choke beers? I'm Australian I inhale beer As that goes in the net Second serve from BigFo As he serves again Out wide to the backhand of Rafa 4 now from BigFo It was a win up man, BigFo What are you on today mate? He is on fire BigFo But how long can he maintain the level? That's the thing, been playing like this for about an hour Can he continue this level? And as 3-3 As Rafa has a big conversation with his coaches Because that's a loud What are you guys, yes or no Like or not Do you like the coaching The new coaching rules? Yes, no maybe Do you like them? Yes, no maybe I'm undecided I'm undecided Most people say no A few people say yes As Rafa serves a great serve and Tiafo Cannot return 15 love I like what Fritz had to say about it Yeah Katie, I'm leaning towards Fritz's opinion as well I don't I mean it's very off-putting When you see it in action Because we're so used to it being illegal That when you see When you see someone do it You're like whoa They're talking so much 15 love So I'm definitely probably on the side of Fritz Because it's just uncomfortable to see Like it's like whoa, you're really getting some help there And some players don't use the coach at all So it's like The players that don't ask for help Because they just don't want it I don't know Anyway, it's 30 love It's very off-putting As Shryantik wins the first game of the third Especially to see like Rafa talking that much Like he does a lot of chatting And you kind of wonder You know, the guys that are Like talking a lot to their coaches How did they do that before How did they know before You know, what was the What was the vibe before Funny enough, city pass doesn't actually talk to his coaches that much He actually gets spoken to a lot So people that thought city pass got a lot of coaching It was because he didn't He never spoke to them They spoke to him So it's kind of interesting to see that city pass I don't think city pass The rule helps city pass that much It just allows his dad to be loud 40 love, Rafa To stay in front So about why the backhand of Tiafo 49 from Rafa is a winner 4-3 Like with city pass He doesn't go back and forth with the coach So I don't know if that is I don't know, I don't think that's considered coaching Because like Tia, he's not asking for help He's getting help by His coaches yelling at him He might not even be listening Whereas Elkaraz for example He asks And they tell him, like they go back and forth Which is like really weird I don't know I'm still undecided I think I need to have another couple of months of it And see how I feel At the Australian Open They chatted in code Now that he's allowed to talk I haven't seen city pass outwardly Speak to his coach They're just yelling at him And he's just kind of like listening I don't know I don't agree with the new rule Why was the rule changed The big players were getting penalties For things that weren't coaching So they're doing it, it's a trial basis So at the end of the year they could throw it away It's only a trial It's only a trial basis Let's get back to Shiontech though Love 30 is we're going to return now from Shiontech To the point of Neemire And that's a winner Nice from Neemire, 15-30 15-30 The coaching rule is the opposite of what tennis is Battling alone against your opponent The tennis purist in me is like It should be one on one And problem solving And there should be no help As that goes in the net from Neemire Man she is really falling off the last couple of games But Shiontech's gaining in confidence 15-40 Also the fact that we can't understand Like if it's for the public I can't understand when they speak in Spanish So we don't even know what the interaction is If you don't speak Spanish Or French or Russian Or you know So for the audience For the English audience I guess It's not very helpful Because we can't We don't understand what they're saying Falling from Neemire Oh wow too good 30-40 I would love to know what they're saying What Raph is saying to his coaches But Maybe get some subtitles Because it would be very interesting To know what they're saying Maybe I'll just learn Spanish 30-40 That's probably the hardest, the easier option Neemire served Downbreak point Second serve Second serve Backhand now Neemire Down to the front of Shiontech For now from Shiontech is Long 40 love by the way, Tiafo Dominating This game And again Shiontech is getting so angry After every point She is not having fun Neemire serves And she serves an ace Bang Tiafo by the way, levels at 4-4 We'll get back to boys After this game Advantage Neemire Level things up in the third Second serve Is a fault Second serve Neemire Unbelievable Unbelievable Thanks for the respect you show to WTA Part of why I watch No worries, thank you anonymous of the five Neemire Double folds back to Deuce Raph is serving a 4-4 in the second He lost the first 6-4 No worries WTA WTA Is just as important As the ATP It's all tennis As Tiafo nearly hits a ridiculous shot Just goes long 15 love Neemire serves A double fold again, oh man Double fold number 12 Jesus Christ Holy crap Alright, that snuck up on me Neemire double folding A loss As Shriontek gets break point Serve To the back of Neemire Into the back of Neemire Back of Neemire Into the back of Neemire Neemire forehand again Goes wide Shriontek breaks 2-11 in the third And it's just a matter of who's going to hit more errors That's what we're getting to at the moment Neemire serves That game away With those terrible serves Back to the boys Rafa 30 love He's trying to get back the lead Stay up 5-4 Serving the net Second serve Serving to the back of Neemire Into the back of Neemire Rafa with the backhand on the stretch Into the front of Neemire Backhand goes wide Jenny says how's Rafa going? Rafa's doing okay Don't let the score line fool you Rafa is not playing bad He's definitely not injured Rafa's fine It's just TRF has played a really good Couple of games In that first set And played some really good shots at the right time Rafa could quite easily win this set Just like that and we're into a third It's a very close contest Only a few points here and there Rafa double faults 40-15 That goes to all the Rafa fans Don't be That first set was One break point for the entire match It shows how good these guys have served Tiafo He went all out on a few points And it worked He misses those shots Probably the first set to tie break Rafa's not that far behind Tiafo Gotta be careful Rafa doesn't get on top of him In the next couple of sets See what I'm saying That's what he's been doing That's what he's been doing Just hitting those insane Winners Out of nowhere And he's making them right now Is he going to make them over five sets? That's the question She's getting the job done Nimaia, she had her chance She's making way too many errors now Serve is a fault Second serve Second serve Rafa Double faults And he yells at himself there, Rafa As soon as he double folded He just went He screamed And we're a deuce Thank you, Anshul I'm trying my best to do both matches She's up three love in the final set Back to Rafa From 40 love to deuce You know, a double fold A good forehand from Tiafo And Rafa's in trouble As he serves them to see the back end of Tiafo Four and a Rafa into the back end of Tiafo To the back end of Rafa Back end out from Bigfo goes wide As Rafa survives Big, big miss From Tiafo Advantage Rafa Tiafo missed opportunity Rafa serves them a tee Back end out Rafa to the back end of Tiafo Back end out Rafa to the front of Tiafo Rafa to the front pass is going to be good Tiafo in the net Of course Rafa did that Of course Rafa did that As Rafa stays in front 5-4 In the second Rafa could break right now Hold on to your butts Rafa could break right now That might have been the half chance Tiafo Had to take Whoops Yes, Fjonsek Feeling good now, Neymar has just Double faulted her way to this deficit She was playing so well until she started Missing the serves 12 double faults That's been her biggest problem Rafa's doing Rafa things That's it Members Spamming in the chat Rafa doing Rafa things Rafa used the emoji It's there to be used There we go, that's what I like to see The members getting about the goats Recognizing the goat Vamos, that's it, yep He survived, yep, for now It could always turn around But Neymar She has to win this game But Fjonsek looks like she's going to the quarterfinals To play against Pagula That'll be fun On a hard court might be a better chance Than Pagula against Fjonsek on a clay court That we saw a couple of months ago Did Cam just say hold on to your butts Yes Yes I did If Tiafo wins this set Okay, if Tiafo wins this set then sound the alarm But He's down He's down, he's down 5-4 Love 30 by the way, Fjonsek Looking for the double break She had the backhand, it's back in Neymar Fjonsek is good to the front of Neymar Backhand at Fjonsek Slice of Neymar who puts it Neymar volleys it in the net Love 40 Love 40 Pagula lost to Eger In Miami as well, right? I think so I think it was Miami That's a good question I think it might have been Love 40, Fjonsek getting the job done The bakery Fjonsek's bakery Or What I like to say is that Fjonsek going to send Neymar to the bakery It's not a good thing Backhand now Tiafo To the slice of Rafa Tiafo's slice Is out 15-all Bigfo just makes the error Neymar serves Down to the Fjonsek Four love Fjonsek sending Neymar to the bakery You don't want to go to the bakery Trust me, the bakery is not fun Tiafo just missed that By the way, 15-all Let's get back to the boys Tiafo can't believe that was wide Hawkeye says believe it Because why would Hawkeye lie? 15-all First serving in the net From Bigfo, second serve Second serve Out wide to the backhand of Rafa Into the slice of Rafa That goes into the backhand of Tiafo Tiafo in control As Rafa hit the winner What are you doing Bigfo?

Ben Stiller is loving it Ben Stiller by the way is sitting behind Rafa's Sitting behind Rafa's Coach's box Sitting behind Rafa's sister sorry By the way Rafa's support group One of the two of them laughing at each other Do you reckon that they would Predicting a double fault They're like he's going to double fault And then he did and they laughed I don't know if I like that That's not fair, that's not cool Advantage Neemaia They were pretty happy about that Double fault, some of them I don't know Doesn't really look good Advantage Neemaia Serve is a fault Second serve Unless they're just celebrating the break Of serve and maybe they picked that Maybe they picked that Maybe they won't celebrate the double fault Maybe they were laughing at the fact That they didn't celebrate the break To win this and he did Because I said that too Forehand now to the back end Of Shriyantek Neemaia goes long Neemaia can't hit two shots in a row Back to Deuce The winner of this match Will play against Rublev The winner of this match will play against Pagula So we go by momentum Nadal plays Rublev Shriyantek plays Pagula Shriyantek Get it done Shriyantek is a winner That's the Shriyantek we know Advantage Shriyantek That's better That is better Much better from the world number one And this has been a wake up call She cannot play like this If she's going to win this tournament She needs to be better Neemaia has been good Was good in the first set Like this She has to play better There's too many players that are better than this This is the world number one hundred You play the world number ten It's going to be a different story That goes down from Neemaia five love She can't be playing like this against the world Number five for example She can't play like this against Pagula In a couple of days Five love Shriyantek Serving first in The second Thirty love Rafa tries to win the first game of the third set Does a second, sorry third Third, third, third Rafa is a winner Forty love Rafa And you wonder if TRFO is a little bit Mentally In pain After that Double folding to lose the set Rafa doesn't need free points But thank you Serve into the font of TRFO That's in the net Rafa one love One love In the third Okay How are you feeling everybody we're good Let me know in the chat where are you watching from Because it's kind of it's actually the first time Rafa's played at a normal time For most people so let me know in the chat Where are you guys watching from Where are you from In the chat You're watching from somewhere in Europe Watching from America Happy Labor Day To all the people celebrating I dropped my pen I'm not playing soccer Alright we've got Dallas, Florida We've got Germany, Poland, Los Angeles We've got Mexico, Ireland Poland, India, Spain France, Vancouver, Chicago Vietnam, Kansas City Australia Trinidad, Philippines Croatia Perth Maine, Baltimore Pakistan, Quebec Hyderabad South Africa, France Someone's at their mum's house That's nice We've got more people from India We've got London, Oman Trinidad, Italy Switzerland Finland Cambridge, New York Cincinnati, Jamaica, Saudi Arabia I'm sure The UAE Is that the same area Russia, we've got Pennsylvania Norway, Washington Nepal, Colorado Thailand Sydney Brazil, nobody's in Antarctica Not today Ukraine Albuquerque Barbados Sinner and Kirios are favourites after Rafa for me Hey look, Rowdy, you're probably onto something there mate, I probably I agree, by the way, apparently according to the betting, Nick Kiros is the favourite for the US Open That is insane Yeah, I mean I can see where you're going with that Cause you're, I know Rowdy, correct me if I'm wrong But you're the reason why you picked, not picked Alcaraz is because Sinner beats Alcaraz to win Is that what you're thinking? You're thinking Alcaraz doesn't beat Sinner So therefore Alcaraz can't be higher than Sinner Is that where you're going with that? And Kirios beats everyone at the top Is that what you're kind of, I'm thinking that's what you're thinking I'm in the same I don't think, I think Sinner beats Alcaraz if they meet But then Rafa beats Sinner I think Baratini gets to the final I think Baratini beats Keegs I don't know, I've been bullish on Baratini for the last couple of months So I'm going to stick with that But I think Baratini could beat If he plays Kirios, he could beat him I'm worried For Kirios, but Yeah Shriontech's got match points, let's get to it 1540s, we're going to return out of the Neymar Back end, that goes into the find of Shriontech Find out Neymar on the stretch, goes wide, Shriontech She gets the sixth love in the final set But she has to play better than that If she's going to be the US Open Champion Because that Is not going to fly Against the better players She gets away with it now Against number 100 But she plays Daniel Collins That ain't going to work Now she's got Jess Pagula in the next round Pagula won't play Like Neymar, so that's a good thing for Shriontech But she needs to be better She needs to be better If she's going to win this US Open That was not good enough The last two rounds, she struggled But she gets through That's all that she needs to get through now Play the best tennis when you play the better players Like You know, she can get away with that now If she gets better All good She needs to get better though Hi Alright everybody, we haven't been in the bakery for a few days Welcome to anyone Bagels We've got bagels, Shriontech special We haven't been to the bakery since Shriontech She bagled everything Anyone Anyone want to bagel?

the break He's only had one break point And he converted that in the first set Rafa with a serve Serve out wide at the front of Tiafo, back in at Rafa Into the back end of Tiafo To the back end of Rafa Tiafo with the back end down the line, Rafa with a slice Into the front of Tiafo Rafa with the front on the stretch, Big foe With the back end, Tiafo is in control And he gets a break point 30-40 Unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable Big foe Second break point of the match And now things are getting Interesting To break in the third It's only three-all though So there's plenty of time for Rafa to come back But Hmm Let's see what Rafa can do Should have been in code violation for the time But the umpire Read the room, and I respect that You know Don't get involved if you don't have to Carlos Bernardo is doing a good thing Good umpiring 30-40, second serve Now wide at the back end of Tiafo Into the front of Tiafo To the back end of Rafa Back end of Tiafo with the open court rubber on the stretch Back end for Big foe, he's a winner Big foe breaks And he runs to the chair And sits down He's up 4-3 Big foe breaks And Rafa with a little smirk on his face He's like As Tiafo tries to get the crowd involved They're about 20 beers in, they're fine Okay 4-3 Big foe But he's still got to win 3 more games Or sorry, 2 more games Hold serve twice, can he do it Breaking Rafa in the middle Let's see if he can hang on So yes, I'm looking at the um The possibilities here So If Rafa makes it to the Semifinals No sorry, makes it to the final He will be number 1 If Elcaraz Has to win, Elcaraz has to win the whole thing Um If he makes the final it won't be enough So Elcaraz has to win the whole thing at this point And so does Rude I mean Rude has to win the whole thing Um, I think as well So I think, unless this is out of date But the 2 guys behind him have to win the whole thing If Elcaraz makes the final then maybe But If Elcaraz makes the final If he makes the final it's like You're number 1 and you made a final It's like Tomorrow it makes more sense if he wins the whole thing Right, he gets to the final Whoever wins this tournament deserves to be number 1 Out of those 3 guys Sounds like what ESPN had Yeah, yeah, I'll do some more research And we'll talk about it We'll talk about it more in the In the quarter finals Tomorrow, but We'll work it out properly so then we can figure it out Exactly Hard to do it when we still got Elcaraz tonight playing And you know, Rafa's playing now Give me time to put it together And we'll figure it out Who cares about the rankings Oh look, I'm sure Rafa fans care about His ranking Okay Let's see what Bigfo does here Good return to the 400 Bigfo 400 Rafa on the stretch is good Rafa gets there with a slice Backhand from Tiafo in the net He had the shot as well This is going to be on Finnish TV And Rafa gets the first point left 15 Man, he had it Rafa, sorry Bigfo He had it It was right there It could have been a

I can't, has this ever happened in tennis history before That 5 players could potentially be number 1 Um Yes I'm sure there has been I'm sure there's been plenty of times where players have been It's been very Close A lot of players sort of Within reach I think there was one year where there's like we had 5 different number 1s So It has happened throughout a season Right now there's only 3 players that can be world number 1 But yeah I think we've had a close Rankings Before He seems to be holding back a bit Who's that Rafa?

Bit of both Pogula played solid But Kovitva was in her best She wasn't her best Uh, can we make and move She said 4 or 5 sets I took the over Well it's at least going to be 4 sets It'll be 5 sets If TF0 wins this set It could be 5, if TF0 loses this set It's probably not going to be 5 If Rafa gets back here The 4th set might just go Rafa's way A little easier Pushkipa by the way, 2 love up against Azarenka In the other match going on at the moment It's TF0 double faults Double fault Love 15 Hey Cam, new subscriber here Do you think Rafa can come back?

No He's just getting beaten By a better player He's playing better in the clutch moments Yeah, Pleska is up Three love against Azarenka Rafa going down Don't doubt Rafa Don't doubt Rafa Just got in what's happening TF0 played very well in the first set Got the break, held on Second set, Rafa got the break at the end of the set To take it TF0 then again played really well In a service game of Rafa's And here we are, two sets of one Again, it's been so evenly matched We could have had three tie breaks Just one bad service game In each set from both One of the guys and that's the difference That's the difference Winner will take on Rubelev Yes, the winner will take on Rubelev Kiros Kokenakis is Looking good in their match, are they winning? About 4-2 About 4-2 And the dial was off court for eight minutes last set Something is wrong with him Yeah I saw Brad Gilbert said that There had been a medical timeout But I don't think there was There was no The umpire didn't call the medical timeout And there was no Nothing on the screen that said there was a medical timeout So I don't know Where that came from Just hope TF0 doesn't choke Whatever happens here This is a big Big opportunity for TF0 to get one of the best wins of his life Why isn't it called a donut instead? Because donut Doesn't sound as It doesn't come off the tongue as well as bagel Oh, the umpire said that So the commentator on the ESPN said that he got his wrist rewrapped Did they? Okay We couldn't tell That could have been the reason but there was no We didn't see like a medical timeout clock On the side So usually that's the That shows up Usually a medical timeout The umpire will say medical timeout And also They'll show like a little 5 minute clock or a 3 minute clock So we didn't see any of that No, this is just a bathroom break Don't count RAF for out Hell no, why would you Be silly to count RAF for out now Considering how close the sets have been RAF is not I mean, TF0 could be like I'm up 2 sets of 1 All of a sudden he's in a 5th set 5 love down in a 5th set It wasn't a medical timeout They just did it during the bathroom break Okay Oh okay, so you're saying they Wrapped his wrist in the bathroom break But it wasn't a medical timeout There you go So they rewrapped RAF for his wrist But it wasn't an official timeout Don't they get a break after 3 sets Yeah, I think You're allowed to have 2 Bathroom breaks in a 5 set match 1 in the first 3 sets And 1 after the first 3 After the set, so yeah This is totally normal You're allowed to have a bathroom break after The 3rd set Or 4th set if you need one Only 2 though, you can only have 2 per match In a 5 set up Marina, that's Look, I know That's what happens when you get goats Coming into the chat With goat fans Because I know There's a lot of Djokovic fans in here I know there's a lot of Djokovic fans in here Just waiting Not because they want to see Rafa do well So that just happens Look, it happens Just got to ignore it I mean I can't Unfortunately With 3,500 people There's just a lot of The Djokovic fans Or the fans Anti-Nadal fans They want to see him lose So they're going to say silly things Unfortunately But you guys can Get rid of those people When you press the panic button Again Let me know in the chat out of 10 How worried are you About Rafa, Rafa fans How worried are you How worried are you I gotta be honest I don't think Rafa's Done yet Maybe if he goes down a break Then it's like oh shit okay If he goes down a break in the set Then that's when you press the panic button But I don't think Still It's concerning But it's Rafa So Rafa can do anything Rafa can come back from any deficit But if he goes down a break Then he can press the panic button But right now He's serving first in the fourth Only a couple of games have split the difference So I don't think that It's a big I don't think Rafa's It's kind of like when he played FAA At the French Open He never really looked in trouble The score doesn't look great But he doesn't look in trouble Physically Or you know Love 15 Like I've got the same vibe As when we watched FAA It was like okay Rafa just needs to lift a little bit more And If he plays a little better he'll be alright Love 15 But that's if he plays a little better Is he gonna play better Love 15 Now wide to the back end of Tiafo Back end of Rafa is long Rafa thought he hit a fault Rafa thought he hit a fault He just let it go Love 30 Love

lot of pressure He serves To the back of the Tiafo Into the front of Tiafo Rafa gets the advantage He gets the advantage Advantage Rafa And the Rafa camp look nervous Ben Stiller is sweating bullets

Let us know in the chat As the umpire looks at the roof I think they're going to shut the roof I think there might be rain around They might close the roof The tournament director is going to talk to the players They're going to close the roof They're closing the roof Rain is around Alright, we've got people from the UK England, India Dublin, Montreal Kentucky The Deep South of America We've got Kentucky People from Kentucky, California in the house Poland Jamaica Greenland, Chicago, Washington Italy, California Copenhagen, Munich Melbourne Russia Netherlands Serbia, Pakistan Cincinnati, Oman We've got more people from Italy A lot of Italians in the house France as well Australians in the house as well Good morning Australians They're going to shut the roof By the way, we're just waiting for that to happen I don't know if they're going to play Or not Indonesia in the house as well Israel, Hawaii They are going to play while the roof shuts Because they can do that here Tunisia in the house We've got South Texas China in the house as well Puerto Rico It's pouring in New York This must not be pouring in Queens It must be pouring in a different part of New York New Orleans In the house as well North Carolina Lisbon Sweden, Malta Indonesia Puerto Rico There's a laundry room count Why not? From all around the world Some people even from outer space Universal Turn this channel Back to TRFO What can he do Is it a indoor match? Does it favor anybody? I don't know We'll find out Probably doesn't help Rafa But Rafa hits that out I don't know if it's going to really affect the match Too badly You can hear the roof slowly shutting As the players play Yeah, TRFO is like I can hear the roof This is annoying 15 love And big foes like what They're playing or what's going on 15 love Usually you can't hear the roof But you can hear the drone noise As it's shutting Because this crowd is so quiet Which is kind of rare So quiet that you can actually hear the roof TRFO serves Down To the back end of Rafa Back to TRFO to the front of Rafa Into the back end of big foe To the back end of TRFO Cross court to the front of big foe As Rafa's forehand goes cross court To the back end of TRFO who dumps in the net I think TRFO is letting the roof affect him He looks straight up after that I think he's a little bit distracted Waiting for that roof to shut This could be a chance for Rafa to break If big foe keeps The roof's about to shut in like 30 seconds So it might be alright 15 all Seems like big foe's a little bit Distracted There's a fault Second serve Second serve big foe There's a double fault 15-30 Roof's about to shut It's very close to being shut and then Big foe can serve And it is also hard to serve Now that he's staring sort of Out of ceiling So he goes from serving Into the blue sky To tossing it up and looking at the roof It does take time to adjust Especially halfway through a game I mean not easy 15-30 The roof is officially closed As he serves TRFO to slice of Rafa Into the backhand of Rafa Backhand of TRFO Into the forehand of TRFO Big backhand from Rafa And TRFO misses the foe 15-40 Man it was right there Shanked it 15-40 Big foe In big trouble Two break points for Rafa Massive miss from TRFO I mean that was

trouble with a slice Rafa forehand open court Rafa to dole Fired up So is his crowd 3-1 Rafa in the fourth That distraction That roof shutting Was a massive distraction for TRFO He's talking to the up high He's like what's going on why are we Why are we shutting the roof That's what He's like he's saying a lot of F words TRFO is pissed off that they had to shut the roof During the serve He's got a point It did Clearly affected him because he lost the set He was questioning that That was tough And he just got a Warning For swearing So he just got a code violation For swearing 3-1 Rafa's got the break TRFO's got to get back in the game One laps in concentration and that's what it takes And it is unfair for TRFO Because He didn't close the roof That was out of his control Just bad timing for big foe Was on Rafa's serve You know Just unlucky he was serving at the time Served now as a double fold from Rafa What is that Love 15 Rafa feeling generous Why can't they swear I don't understand Because swearing is bad Because television is Is frowned upon So That is why Love 15 Rafa serves out why the back in the TRFO Back in the Rafa Is a winner down the line 15 all 15 all Ben Stiller Looking a little less nervous Rafa's dad's laughing He's like yeah I've been here before Whatever guys Also Azarenka is going to serve for the first set So that's something to think about We'll keep

The new surface design, called annular patterned wedding gradient APWG, was developed to collect fog more efficiently than traditional designs. It features an annular wedding gradient pattern which allows fog droplets to be captured and concentrated at the center of the surface. This design also enables the surface to be recharged quickly, allowing it to continue collecting fog even after being exposed to large amounts of moisture. Tests showed that this surface design increased fog collection by up to 1,345 percent, making it a promising solution for fog harvesting applications.

Welcome to the drum history podcast. I'm your host Bart van der Zee and today I am joined by Klaus Hessler Klaus. How are you? Hey, all fine here. Thanks so much. You're great to be on the show. Yeah, awesome I'm honored to have you here. We're we're here today to talk about molar and then Jim Chapin and your lessons with him and then we're gonna get into some more rudimental stuff Which you're very famous for And and all that good stuff. So we are it's it's about four in the afternoon for me But it's it's about 10 p.m. For you. You're you're you're going late here But anyhow, I'm a big boy. So don't worry too much. Okay. All right. Well, I just want to make sure you get to bed on time Awesome. All right. Well Can you please just run me through what is the molar technique and then we'll go through him as a person But just maybe what what is the technique? Yeah, I mean mostly I in a nutshell. I would say molar technique is Is a method of movement I should say which goes back to European Drumming traditions that can be traced back even I would say easily to the 1400s and I Mean of course at a certain point those European drumming traditions Which are mostly rooted in Switzerland and France and certain parts of Germany. They have been exported to the New World which later became the US as we all know and It turned to be the molar technique after the influence and anything happening around the area of the era of the Revolutionary War then the Civil War and it really became the molar technique after Sanford molar had watched and analyzed veterans of the US Army Somewhere by the mid 1920s and it was It was actually not molar who gave his name to the technique It was more or less his students that would say I am practicing the technique of Sanford molar or I'm using molar's System or I'm using the technique of Sanford molar and eventually it became molar Technique but it was not Sanford molar himself who would say this is now my technique He was very much aware of the aspect that he had just pretty much Stolen let's say sure and adapted this technique by watching veterans that had served in the army and played Field drums In the Civil War that's pretty much the the story about it. Yeah. No, that's interesting Yeah, Dom Femularo was on the show a fellow Maypex drummer and he He spoke a little bit about that about how you watch these guys who were 90 years old getting such huge hits and you know such great volume and they're They're so just I mean these are great Civil War veterans, you know, and they're still able to get that much power So and I know also with the Stone George Laurence stone stone stuff. It was similar where he didn't sit down and write stick control per se They just put together a lot of his pages So I think that makes sense that someone else gives you the name the molar technique. You can't say This is I'm molar and this is my technique Makes sense. Yeah, although at times people do things like that But yeah, but I mean it's it's really hard to come up with something which is actually absolutely new under the sun And especially with an instrument which is as old as the drums almost Anything you can think of has been done before By one or the other person. So yeah, so it's really hard to say this This is my thing and it has not been done before. Yeah, very true. That's true and pretty much everything in life. It's like All right, now why don't we talk about Sanford molar is a person You were mentioning before we were recording. He goes his family goes back to Germany, which I should have mentioned before but you're obviously German you are in Germany, correct. Yeah, right, correct. So yeah, tell us about him as a person well, I mean Sanford molar as and what I'm telling you now is is pretty much based on what on what I learned from Jim about Sanford molar and a couple of things I read about Sanford more and I was Sort of diving more into the issue I think Sanford molar was a relatively late starter on the drums So he went to the army. He fought in the Spanish-American war I think and and started drumming relatively late and So he was under the influence and under the teachings of a couple of drummers that that would that would play in in the in the band of John Philip Sousa, for instance and Well, then molar pretty much was was the drummer in in a vaudeville act By Famous George Kohan No, I'm not aware of or did you ever hear about George Kohan or yeah, Dom mentioned him on the on his episode And I just remember him saying that he was basically the father of like modern Broadway as we know it You that's pretty much of what it is. I guess I mean the the vaudeville scene is sure Say something like somebody's telling a joke and and and there's some little acting and some music and some dancing And then in the end everybody performs together and that's pretty much it so So George Kohan had this vaudeville act and and Sanford molar was one of the drummers And the story also goes that for instance, buddy rich was one Of the attractions actually in George Kohan's Vaudeville show So it's very likely that that buddy rich as a young kid was listening and possibly even watching Sanford molar in the pit So who knows what what that connection was responsible for. Yeah, just saying yeah, of course And it was pretty much during his time with George M. Kohan and the and the traveling all across mostly the east coast of the US that that Sanford molar would Would visit veterans in their homes and he would always have something to drink and and and and tobacco and he would he would talk to the to the veterans and And he would have them play drums for him their field drums And of course what they did was they would pretty much duplicate certain routines that they used to perform during their Their service in the in the US Army So they would play the three camps and the downfall of Paris they would play the tunes and the orders and the and the drum beatings that they were aware of and I I would assume they were not playing exercises like Jim Chapin later made them famous. I assumed they were mostly playing tunes and out of playing These say rudimentary classics like Dixie and the downfall of Paris and Turkey in the straw and British Grenadiers and and anything that that you had to play when you were a drummer in the army molar pretty much watched and analyzed their movements and he came up with the idea of say Discovering the upstroke. He discovered a stroke in which the wrist would Indicate the direction of the move. So so when Mola was referring to an upstroke He would not refer to the tip of the stick he would refer to the to the direction that the hand would travel at the time of the hit and It was always super important for them to have the stick in some sort of constant movement So so these guys back then they most likely had a very different perception of playing as opposed to What we see when we see? modern contemporary rudimental guys perform So so the the moving culture I would even say and and the method of movement was quite different and He analyzed that further with the whip and the upstroke and the fly back Which was nothing else than a different word for rebound and and all of these ingredients finally came to to make Mola technique in in essence, I'd say Wow. It's so neat to think of like it feels the civil war obviously here in America feels like It is a long time ago, but just to think that you're only a Couple generations away from people being alive and learning from those people just to sit there and watch these guys play What was his era that he was in like when when would he have been born and his you know, when did he die Mola? Mola was born. I think 8079 if I'm not mistaken, okay, and I think he died in the 1960s 61 or 62 I think okay I am I may be wrong For a couple of years, but that's pretty much from 1880s to 1960s. I think Mola was 1879 to 61 62 something like that. Okay, and it was pretty much the same era as as of George Lauren Stone who lived around the same time and It also was about the same time that that very influential Swiss drummers and educators were Were alive working like like the late great dr. Fritz Berger who was one of Say the most influential Swiss drumming guys. Sure. Yeah, I learned a little bit about the The world of Swiss drummers when Mark Beecher was on the show great rudimental drummer Yep about learning about the Swiss army and all that cool stuff So that's neat. Now, obviously you are a very close student with Jim Chapin. So Why don't we kind of an in a parallel fashion? maybe talk about Mola and then his his students, right, which Might be a naive thing to say but so Chapin was a direct student of Mola, correct Yes, that's that's correct It should also be mentioned that that Jim was a relatively late student of of Sanford Mola and And I'm mentioning that because there are quite some differences between The early students of or relatively early students of Sanford Mola like for instance say Gene Krupa Whose method of movement is quite different from what from what Chapin used to do But but Mola was always heavily into teaching and he was he seemed to be a very strict teacher and He must have been a tough a tough cookie. I should say and I mean, it wasn't just it wasn't just the teaching that that Mola was was absorbed with he also built drums and The story goes he would only sell you a drum If you would play for him and if Mola would think you're no good, he would not sell you the drum Oh, man from a today's perspective and and and aspect of marketing Possibly not that smart, but who knows what it was good for. No, man. He must have had a ton of students Obviously, but these guys who their name lives on for you know Like the next hundred years you must have a you must spread your name and your lessons a lot over the years Yeah, and and I mean Mola he he he must have been a very strict guy I mean you possibly heard about the the famous March to Boston where he he marched from from Say around 240 miles I mean, obviously not in one go But every step on the on the March he was playing the drums Oh, wow as he was sort of under the impression that drumming should be an Olympic discipline He wanted to be drumming Olympic man. No kidding. Yeah. No, I had heard that that's wild And just as as another side note was that I think Mola was also a member of the polar bear club Which included the aspect of him say Swimming swimming in the ice water in winter you would break the ice and jump in and Swim a couple of rounds or dive under the ice and then go out again And he would do that every day every winter. So I mean to do that That tells a lot about your your discipline and and the way you are as a person Yeah, big time Now I forgot that I knew I'd heard it on a couple episodes But I forgot that Jean Krupa was a student of Mola which is which is funny because Jean is known as just being like the nicest guy in the world Jean you're right. He doesn't have the same technique that you see with the later guys, but Isn't there some connection with Jean Krupa and Jim Chapin as well? Yes, sure it is and I should say that the connection First of all the difference between between the movements of Jean and the movements of Jim was mostly that as I mentioned before Jean was a relatively early student of Mola and and he was and that was at the time when Mola was heavily under the Over-exaggerated upstroke spell I should say and all his later students like Jim for instance Mola would be very strict about not over exaggerating the upstroke and not drooping your wrists and stick too much and The connection with or the connection between Jean and Jim pretty much goes back to to Jim watching Benny Goodman in Manhattan and Going going to a gig with with Benny Goodman I think it was and and Jean would just go backstage and And ask Jean for lessons Now you must understand that it's pretty much the same as if you would go to To a stingig and you're trying to go backstage and ask Vinny for a lesson This is not happening. This is not an option, right? No exactly, but but Jim actually did that so So Jean being that kind person that he was he would say kid I don't teach but I know a good teacher go to Sanford Mola. He's gonna teach you what I can do and And and that was in essence what what Jim really did. So not that much later Jim finds himself performing Pretty much on almost the same bandstand as Jean Krupa, right opposite and And Jean would listen to Jim and say boy, I remember you you're the kid You were asking me for lessons and so you went to Mola and obviously Mola told you something different as opposed to what he showed me and So that was their first encounter then again and then a couple of years later still Jean was was was calling Jim for lessons and then in turn Jim became the teacher of Jean Krupa. So so the so the places had changed which which is some Funny twist of of faith. Yeah It is but they're both such they both come off as very nice guys where it wouldn't be like I'm not gonna take lessons from you I'm your superior. It would be more of like a oh boy. I can actually learn from you. Cool. Let's do it You know good for you for working Interesting. Hmm Now two questions. I'm gonna probably just jump in as things kind of pop into my mind here I don't think I asked this before where was Mola located? Was it in the New York area? It I think it was New York era, right? Okay, they all guys like me and Cincinnati. We don't get any of these famous teachers and How long would a guy like Jean Krupa go to Mola or Chapin for like I imagine if you're a professional drummer, do you go in that in that case? to learn the technique and then go you know Spread your wings and fly and then you're off because you know It's not the same as a young student taking lessons for six years with a teacher and going from Yeah, baby drummer to you know, what was a typical run of it? Yeah, I think Mola was relatively well known for the aspect of Throwing students out once he was under the impression that he he was not able to show them anymore. So I think Jim's time with Sanford Mola was around a year. Okay it it wasn't that much more and That's that's at least what what Jim told me and I would think it It may have been pretty much the same with Krupa, although I don't know for sure. Okay Man, that's just everything about him like like when I um, I taught at like Sam Ash big music store here and stuff in through college and I was like Gripping on to every student for the income like no, no, let's keep learning Whereas Mola's like I'm not gonna sell you a drum. You're done. We'll taking lessons So he must have been doing okay on money there and not had to I guess it was a different different time Yeah, it was a very different perception of of learning and methodology as we have it today and parts of it we're possibly pretty cool and and and Could even be maintained still today what other parts of it, of course May need an update sure that that is that is for sure but I also remember times when when I was when I was asking Jim about his his experiences in In lessons with with Mola and and he really came up with with quite some some funny things like I Remember one time I was asking Jim Boy Jim, do you still remember what was your first lesson like with with Mola and and Jim said yes, sure first lesson Jim had bought Mola's book the art of snare drum And and he goes to the lesson and says good day, Mr. Mola. Yeah Listen, I bought your book. Here's your book and and Mola says oh Jim I wish you had I wish you hadn't bought the book the book is no good The book is all wrong and he and he said that with I mean it sounded very disappointed almost Yeah, and and and I would ask Come on. Why was that? I mean here's the person who wrote the book, but but the author is saying My own book is not good. So so why is that and and it turned that that Mola was not happy at all with the pictures in the beginning section that showed the movements of the whip because the the movements were so Over-exaggerated and he was not happy with that. So Okay, I think you can talk to the to the guys at Ludwig and then they would say Now listen, the book sells quite well and it was awful. It was an awful amount of work to put the pictures together We just leave it as it is and and the book is still in the very same shape today Well, what how do you think the pictures represent it as a you know, kind of a master of this method Do you think they're they're crazy out of line? I mean, they are interesting since they pretty much describe the the over exaggeration of the upstroke that that Mola was was under in his beginning years when he was Starting to put word out about his his technique But from a today's standpoint, I would say The pictures are possibly not good because they really don't represent the way of how the technique Would be used in the best possible way and Jim was not referring at all To these pictures in his strategy of teaching Mola's technique. Gotcha Interesting, you know, and it's just a side note that maybe it's a future episode with someone from Ludwig But it's it's it's neat how Ludwig was so involved with the publishing of a lot of these really early books Like I think stick control originally was thanks to Ludwig and stuff so Now let's talk a little bit more about Jim Chapin. So we know Mola Kind of came up playing with Susa and and that was like his you know, not claimed to fame But that was like, you know, you're a big working musician now Jim Chapin. He was a working drummer, correct? He wasn't just a Not that there's anything wrong with it, but like a life-long teacher like he was a performer, right? Yes, true Okay. Now Jim, when did he pass away? He's he's a very legendary guy, but I don't know when he passed away Yeah, Jim Jim was born July 23 1919 and and he passed away July 4 2009. Oh, wow, and So so he he died he passed away only say a couple of days shy of his 90th birthday man, what a life Yeah, what a life. So I mean what one of the one of the guys absolutely who saw the evolution of modern drum set and giving heavy footprints in that history of how the instrument came together and and how certain say parts of it were even Invented. I mean the the instrument was not the same when Jim started out to play as As compared compared to the days when when he finally passed away. It was a totally different instrument. Mm-hmm. So so he was really born into very exciting times and And the interesting thing still about his death day 4th of 4th of July Obviously is that that Jim was a big fan of of independence Which is why he wrote his first book which was heavily on I mean Came together under the spell of what he did with molar but so the father of modern drumming independence dies on Independence Day and And Jim once mentioned that if if he could pick his death day It would be July 4 because he was a huge fan of John Adams Yeah, who was one of the founding fathers of of the American Constitution together with some with Thomas Jefferson And and just for that for that sake alone He would pick July 4 as his death day and he finally made it exactly to that which is just amazing I think that is that's so cool. He seems like a very nice guy and I think I talked to a Little bit at Pasek. I talked to Jason Edwards from prologix percussion a little bit about his lessons we were talking about that with with with Jim as well and Kind of echoes what you're saying of him just being a nice guy. He Jim it's just kind of funny. He looks like a nice guy. You know what? I mean, I'm sure he was very He wanted you to work. What was it like taking lessons with them and on that note was it? Primarily on the pad were you on the drum set? And you're in Germany. How did this even work for you? I mean, what was what was the story with with you taking lessons with him? That's a lot of questions there. Sorry. Yeah, I mean Taking a lesson with Jim was always a bit of an adventure. Now quite some of my lessons with him took place In the US on Long Island, I mean some of the first ones Back in the Long Island drum center where Dom also used to teach alongside with Jim and Al Miller, for instance, who was another great Long Island drummer and another teacher of Dom actually and It also appeared that that every day or every year when when Jim would would come over to Germany usually Many times twice a year for music master, which was usually somewhere spring March April and then another time Many times around fall October November. He would stop by at my place He would he would stay at at my at the house of my parents-in-law and I would just try to organize as much work for him as possible and Of course then also taking lessons with him, but it was it was many times an adventure because Jim didn't make Victor didn't make victims when he When he was teaching it was he would just go for it but whenever you had a question his answers would always be in detail exactly what you wanted to hear he was not Cryptical he was not Coming up with strange comparisons that you would not understand He was very hands-on and he would teach each student With the utmost amount of respect no matter if it was a season pro who had been playing the drums For years and years or if it was somebody who who was just starting out to play the drums Jim did not care everybody was everybody got the same amount of attention and It was it was both on the pad and the drums Whatever was around he was traveling with his set of say copied pages Either out of his books volume one or volume two and a couple of handwritten sheets Which are spread all over the all over the planet I think I run into these these copied handwritten sheets of Jim everywhere. That's funny. So that was pretty much His routine. Yeah, hmm. That's cool man in inner intercoastal drum lessons there Now was it a pretty standard priced lesson? I mean, that's probably a a silly question But like he's kind of a legendary guy. Was it still like the standard, you know $40 $50 for an hour in in comparison to the inflation and all that Jim actually what one of the one of the very few Malfunctions in the in the in the business model of Jim shape and I would say was that Jim never had a real Concrete idea what he wanted to charge for a lesson. I mean, I I would pay him of course But and I would whenever I would organize lessons for for Jim. I would of course say, okay, this is like 60 bucks 70 bucks Yeah, what whatever the rate was but I have encountered Say countless situations where where Jim would just give lessons for free pretty much and Man because he was so enthusiastic about About teaching and drumming and he would completely forget about time and be off schedule already at Two in the afternoon and there was still a whole day of teaching in front of him And and you were pretty much just trying to to get things sort of organized and to keep everything kind of unscheduled but Trying to really page him the amount that that he really deserved at times was challenging Let me put it this way man. That's interesting. It's so funny him and him and even kind of going back to molar about Not really working out that great with the marketing and the money side of things But I guess it's just the love of teaching. I've had that with my experience taking lessons Now with Barry who's kind of of that earlier generation is it'll be an hour and a half in and I remember back when I was teaching It was like on the hour. It's like alright Someone else has to start now like you know like I would always say the train doesn't stop like if one person gets off then the rest of the day is off so It's not a concern I guess Now as we kind of maybe we'll move on to something else here, but like can you name off some obviously you are but Who are some? drummers that we all might know who use the molar technique That's a good question and I mean We would have to make a difference between Drummers who have the information obviously from Jim himself Okay Yeah, who know what what they are doing and there are still on the other hand quite some drummers who use the same principles But they never took a lesson with Jim Got it and and and we would also have to make a difference between any sort of formal lessons and formal students who would really reach out to Jim and Stop by and then take a lesson in his rooms where he was teaching or if it was just something Okay, we're gonna stop by backstage and you're gonna show me something on the pad real quick. Mm-hmm. Wow. That's a great point but what I what I know is that Jim was always a huge fan of Vinny and Vinny's traditional grip and And I think mostly for the for the not not not just for the aspect of Vinny's musical and rhythmic Say imagination which is which is just beyond he just seems to be The kind of player who can who can do anything But I know that Jim also loved Vinny's traditional grip for the for the sheer aspect of being one of the few guys Who could really get a nice crack out of the drum and a good backbeat? Still using traditional grip. Yeah So so Jim loved that a lot. I know and quite some other guys, of course would include people like Kenny Aronoff who who loved Jim's technique and and was extremely grateful for For Jim's input because at some point, I think Kenny was There were some some some physical Restraints and some physical challenges that that Kenny had at a certain time and just letting go of the stick and And using the the power and the relaxation effects of of Mola technique pretty much Saved his life that that's that's what Kenny always used to say So I mean there are countless more people who would use use the system but these are just two that that come to my mind which are very different with regards to to to their drumming style and their approach of music, but that just goes to say how Universal the technique really is and that it's not just something for the jazz guys or for the rock guys or for or for whatever guy it was it seemed to be the Perfect thing that you could organize all of your drumming with That's interesting and you said too that like it would be if you learned it from Jim or if you kind of Copying what you saw or you learned backstage So was Jim basically Jim Chapin was he basically like the gatekeeper? I mean at that point I'm sure other people were alive and teaching from taking lessons from molar, but it sounds like Jim was the guy kind of like how it went civil war drummers to molar Molar to Chapin and obviously Jean Krupa and everyone but he didn't he taught but not as much as Jim Chapin So if you really wanted to learn this technique correctly It basically had to be through Jim Chapin, correct? I would say so and and there's also word by by sanford molar himself Who would say that that jim was that one student of him who obviously Uh understood best the the techniques that molar was teaching and possibly even added Some some little aspects on on top of it And I think that was just for the pure sake of jim just Just being a genius mind. He would he would bring the ability of analyzing things and looking into the details and understanding What is really happening behind the curtain? And he would include that into his teaching routines and molar understood that and it even went to the point where I think molar also Gave jim one of the drums that one of the us army veterans Gave molar as a present in the 1920s. Oh, wow So so so jim had this really old drum which most likely has been played during the civil war and uh Unfortunately, the the drum got stolen when uh, god When jim's video speed power control endurance was shot because jim would would never lock his car and he just had this Field drum the rope tension field drum with the molar eagle and the and the famous depict with the eagle and the arrows that that was That was molar sign on the on the drums. He had a typical design that he used Uh, and of the car wasn't locked and it was the the drum was stolen and away you go So jeez so it's out there somewhere, but uh, somebody has it. I'm sure If you're listening then please, uh, send it to klaus because I think you're the one who deserves it At this point. Um, okay. Well, that's uh, that's interesting. So, um Okay, let's change gears here. I feel like we have a good understanding of those guys and uh, now I mean you are obviously a direct, you know student going down the lineage there. Um Um What can you let's talk collapsed rudiments something that you mentioned to me about Hey, maybe this is something we could talk about. Can you explain what it is and um, and then maybe we'll get into your, uh, most recent book and uh Yeah, let's talk rudiments Yeah, sure. Uh, now First of all collapsed rudiments. I should I should say is uh, it has been the Uh, I would say the favorite playground Of the late years of uh, of jim Chapin and and I know he started thinking about that already somewhere back in the 60s and uh, long story short, it's about Taking a certain sticking a rudiment Whatever it is. Let's say a rudiment and uh, you're you're maintaining the sticking you keep The the order of right and left strokes, but you're changing the distances between the strokes Uh, but you don't change the order of the sticking. It's just the rhythm that you change It's not the sticking that you change. So you collapse it you collapse the pattern pretty much like a Collapsing chair if you will you change distances like like an accordion there And uh, and you you you collapse and you expand it that's pretty much the idea and The interesting thing is that uh, that jim was using a lot of that in his drum set concepts So that was again another field of studies where the topic of rudiments and drum set slash independence would meet Collapsed rudiments can be also a great tool to better understand the relationship between certain patterns say The single flamed mill is an offspring of the five-stroke roll such as the paradiddle little And the pada-fla-fla are related to each other because they have the same sticking but different rhythm Such as the single drag tab is an inward paradiddle Such as the the single paradiddle is also a flam accent Uh There are countless more but understanding the relationship between rudimental patterns pretty much gives you a completely Different view on the topic that also helps to uh to understand drum set adaptations in uh in yet a different way Interesting now It's not to be confused with like if you're on the computer and you're you know Like let's imagine there's a swing knob Where you go from dot dot dot dot and you make it dot dot dot dot dot and you're kind of playing with time It's not to be confused. It's it's different than that obviously right where you're kind of Still in time, but you're pushing and pulling a little bit is that that's different correct Uh, it it it can it it use it should be different. Yes, uh, I mean But but it it definitely has to do with how far you take the game Uh, say if you if you play, uh a paradiddle Let's say to to to come up with with a super easy example and you have your paradiddle And you can obviously just move from the paradiddle And uh keep the sticking in the very same way And you also keep the pulse and the and the time in the very same spot But you just change the difference change the distances between the notes That's pretty much the the basic concept that Jim was looking into Gotcha, that makes perfect sense. And I appreciate you playing it. That doesn't happen often on this often on this show. So, um That's pretty cool. Awesome. Now, um And then you as a teacher so you are obviously a teacher So um and we can talk about you know more at the end where people can find you and all that stuff But if people wanted to learn this directly from you I know you have a a pretty cool setup. That's a very legitimate multi-camera kind of good audio Setup so if people were to take lessons from you, this is the kind of stuff they can they can learn directly from you, correct? um Yes, and uh, and and I mean some sometimes people would say oh boy I'm having trouble with with understanding rudiments as they are Um, so why should I burden myself with yet another level of craziness? um, I mean just Just to cool things down a bit To me the the the whole aspect of collapsing and expanding rudiments or collapsing and expanding Certain stickings and patterns. It's not about creating complexity By all means it it also can be used as a tool of methodology to point out relatively Simple relationships between Certain right left stickings It doesn't have to be complicated But it it really sheds a completely different light on a learning process That includes sticking and and accents And it's it's it's quite astounding that the rhythmic aspect on top of that also makes it a bit easier to to come up with Say more exotic Grids of subdivision. I mean just to give you a relatively basic example if you were to play a five stroke roll And you were to expand that all of a sudden you're getting into quintuplets Which uh Once you're under the spell of still playing the five stroke roll and you just look into even distances from stroke to stroke You you naturally you naturally Seem to go into the quintuplet without having to think one to three four four one two three four four one two three four four and breaking your tongue, right? Yeah, exactly So that's relatively easy. I think and so collapsing and expanding patterns Is something which can also be used in many fold applications Which shed a different light on not just certain technical aspects, but also certain rhythmical aspects and And the way you use a certain pattern On the pad or around the drums That's fascinating. Yeah, and it's uh, obviously like you said you can use around around the drum set. So this isn't um I think growing up. I kind of had the um mentality of um Always just being a rock drummer Guy on a drum set like I don't really need to practice rudiments. I play on the drum set But now being like, you know an adult I'm like boy, I wish I would have spent more time doing that So that's why kind of on a mission now to learn more of this stuff and uh Because it applies for everything like you said you can use it everywhere. It pretty much does. I mean, um There there there's still a constant discussion going on. Is it is it something worth doing studying rudiments? Uh, and and the answers to that questions may be different and I understand that there are different answers from different people So uh, uh, so quite some some some drummers would say Well, uh rudiments. That's that's the foundation of drumming. It's it's really the the basis of what we do You may have that opinion and and I think Fair enough and uh, and it's totally true for say an army drummer 200 years ago I mean if you were not able to play the rudiments you could not play Your duty you could not play the marches and the and the orders and the drum beatings that you were supposed to play in the army So for an army drummers quite some years ago. It it was the absolute foundation Today for a rock drummer, you may argue that but still what you do is you play Stay certain arrangements of right and left strokes and some are softer and some are louder and uh rudiments actually Come as a compressed nucleus of certain right left loud soft arrangements they they actually uh Generate perfect exercises that uh that help you once you master these exercises To bring your musical imagination into life. So why not take that opportunity and uh and take advantage of that Yeah, that's at least my point. No, I think that's Exactly right where you look at um And I keep going back to it but just because I'm taking lessons on it now But looking at stick control you'd look at the first couple pages and go what you know, this is just rights and lefts But it's like man, there's so much you can do with it and it's exactly like what you're saying about just Take that one little bit and expand it and turn it into something just to let let your imagination go wild If like the better Of a drummer you are The more you can pull out of you know, if you're playing piano twinkle twinkle little star Herbie Hancock or someone would play that completely different than a Beginner and would get much more out of it just by knowing what you know the basics Yeah, sure And I mean finally it all comes down to to understanding the gap between what I used to call the drill zone and the game zone uh The drill zone may be something like Yeah, you you learn the basics you learn Uh the the legacy you you you study the traditions you learn the rudiments You you study stick control you study accents and rebounds you study all the legendary greats On whose shoulders we are standing on and uh and then putting that all to the game zone where you just Try to forget about that and uh and and just enjoy the the fun of doing it And uh jim usually used to say When somebody was asking What what what should I do with with the techniques I I now Learned with you and and the exercises I I did with you and and the typical Chapin answer would be Give me 20 minutes daily in front of the mirror and when you go on stage Forget you know me That's awesome forget you know me. Oh, it's so true And uh, and I think that that's one thing that made jim outstanding as a teacher He would not take himself so seriously that he would only be after the techniques jim was very much after the music, but he understood the connection between both And uh and that I think is what makes uh a good teacher a great teacher Yeah, yeah, you're not learning this in a vacuum. You're you're meant to go out and play and uh Ideally make it your own right to a little bit, you know, you want to keep the technique alive and everything but but be your own drummer Yes, so um That's awesome. Let's hop over now and talk about your book camp duty update Which is just right in line with all of this um and the history And um, I don't I want to be clear that I don't have it. I haven't read it But I'm just looking at it online and I will definitely try to get my hands on it. So Um, why don't you tell us about it? Well, the the main intention of the book to me or the main motivation Let's say was I was I was trying to reconnect the drumming and the music And uh, and the the strange thing I thought was that at a certain point in time the the drumming and uh, and the music almost seemed to be separated now Say if if I'm if I'm Bringing up the three camps for instance. I mean who out there still knows that the three camps uh as a Drum beating as a as a march as a signal to to wake up troops also has a five melody and who out there would be Would be able to whistle that tune So so who would be aware of the music and uh, it almost seems like okay. Here's the rudiments and uh Oh, yeah some some at some point back there there used to be music that the drumming would accompany But uh, we forgot the music and and only the the drumming and the rudiments Were left as a short passage on a poster. I think that's very poor And and that was the the main intention reuniting the music and the drumming and also understanding that the the drumming and the music has has european Origins, so most of that is Swiss and french and to a certain degree it may be It it may have some german influence as well. I mean the the borders between the countries back then During renaissance times, of course were much different as they are today So this is why I say it has european roots, but the french and the swiss origins are extremely strong with that So i'm i'm giving some sort of a historic timeline of how drumming developed beginning in the 14th century To the times of the revolutionary war and the civil war and then I present certain classic tunes from that uh from these times i mean starting with uh with with a piece from the from the 1600s until say standards like The downfall of paris and the three camps and the british granadiers and yankee doodle and dixie and all of that But I I not just present the classic original tunes and and the drum beatings As they were used in their authentic way. I also present an updated version which uses the same melody same five tune but using influences from basel drumming and collapsed rudiments that Chapin concept that we talked about earlier And that also fits on the same melody. So i'm i'm kind of Trying to reconnect the the tradition of drumming from hundreds and hundreds of years ago to what we have today And and there's very much of a common thread to it And it appears quite some people Like it which i'm of course happy about so of course yeah, I think your attention to detail and um I just think what i've learned from this show is people really really enjoy and respond well to um when people just really want to keep historical traditions alive And um, and if not modernize it a little bit to keep it, you know relevant and so you're not just printing out sheets of you know Music where you're just playing the same thing. Um, yeah, and you come it has a CD with it. Obviously I can see that so That's really cool. That's that's great. You're doing that and uh, and and it's it's obvious, but you people don't need to be Standing there in their full uniform with a rope tension drum to do this I'm sure it would still be fun just to sit there in your living room, right? I mean that makes sense Yeah, but the the the interesting thing still is that um, I mean the the the feedback i'm getting on this, uh From from all kinds of drummers, uh, say, uh David Garibaldi is a big fan of it and and he also took a couple of lessons on and stuff like that Uh, just as steve smith was writing a testimonial for it or big furth or john back or A little funny story on the side Which is just two days ago now. I I came back home late and uh, my phone is ringing and uh And believe it or not, it's steve gad. So my god What would you think steve gad is calling you and is asking you for a copy of camp duty update? Uh So I had to sit down and uh and have a drink after that. Yeah, that's exactly what I would do Just just saying so, uh, so that's awesome. Obviously there's something to it. I hope yeah Oh man, that's so cool. And I just want to say we We it most people know it who are listening to this but you yourself I mean, obviously people can probably gather it from talking to you are an amazing drummer both on the rudimental stuff And just getting you on a drum set um from watching videos and and posting some on social media and stuff. Um, so You're a monster drummer, man. You're great Thank you. I mean, I mean the the the whole rudimental act and and all of this is is pretty much, uh Uh, I I would even call it like something like a hobby. It's it's not it's not something that that I do for a living but it just It just connects perfectly with with my main topic with Which is which is still drum set playing of course, but but understanding that knowing about rudiments and the and the history part of it and and Just seeing how that puzzle of drumming Is is sort of coming to To to a complete picture. Yeah, that's that's just something I enjoy so much that that I keep doing it And uh, although it's it's not what I really do for a living Of course, I'm a drum set player and I wouldn't call myself a basildrummer or a a true rudimental Shotgun that that's not what I am. I I know a thing or two and I can play a thing or two but But I'm mostly attracted by by the beauty of of these old rope tension field drum 16 by 16 and I I just enjoy that That voluminous and and majestic sound I should say. Yeah Yeah, they're um They're works of art I mean really I got a book from a friend mark robertson Who's a great friend of the show who sent me a book on them and I've just like looked through and it documents them all beautifully and I think was written by george carol It's something I'm getting more and more into where you appreciate the art of these rope tension drums So I'm right there with you. It's it's very cool So claus, why don't we tell people here at the end? Um, where they can find you the best way to take a lesson With you take lessons with you. Um, so why don't you tell us all that good stuff? Uh, well, I mean, of course, uh, there's my website claus hesla.com Uh, which has a contact uh formula which you can use to to contact me for any open lesson slots That's possibly the easiest way to go.

The two-day national protest organized by the Nigerian Labour Congress in solidarity with the Academic Staff Union of universities and other tertiary institutions unions has recorded a massive turnout in Kaduna students from various tertiary institutions across the state and 46 other unions have also joined in the protest to compel the federal government of Nigeria to resolve the lingering issues of strike to reopen universities for academic activities to save the future of Nigerian students and the nation's education system. Plus TV correspondent Habila Daroufai filed in this report as presented from our studios. The protest has converged at NLC secretaries in Kaduna states and then proceeded to the state House of Assembly to tender their letter for the consideration of the plight of students and lecturers carrying placards with various inscriptions and chanting solidarity songs. Speaking after tendering the letter at the House, NLC Chairman Kaduna state, Comrade Ayuba Magachi said that no country develops without a good education system and that the non-challenge of leaders towards education is affecting students. At this honorable protest or rally, rather, is we are pressing home the demand of our place for them in the public university, in particular ASU, NASU, SANU and NAAD. The demand is simple. They wanted to see the standard of education, particularly that of the university, is upgraded and is enhanced through the provision of good working conditions for the staffs, through the provision of standard infrastructure for lecturing for student austere and for even staff quarters. Responding, the representative of the State Assembly, who is a deputy speaker, Hon. Isaac Alta, said that the House will do everything possible to ensure that their demands are met and also assured them of the speaker's readiness to meet with the government and other relevant stakeholders to the strike actions. As a chairman of the Northern State Assembly speaker, he is already in Australia trying to win into this very matter on a very sincere level. Also, the chairman of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, ABU Zaria, Comrade Mohamadu Yunusa, expresses his pleasure over the lingering strike. When election is coming quite all right and the electorate, that is the people that are going to vote should understand that these people, most of them that are coming out to contest, their children are not in this university, in this church, in Sushams. Most of them, the children are outside. So I am appealing to our people that in the next coming election, they should ensure that the elect people that are credible, people that have the concern of the masses in their minds. Some of the electorates say they won't resume until their demands are met. The insensitivity of the government towards its non-respected agreement duly signed, honorably signed by the government, now they are making it that issue as if they were coerced into signing that agreement. It is rather unfortunate. Strike have really, really affected us. We are getting to this month at home. And this month at home, a lot of us are doing nothing. And look at the situation of the country, look at what is happening, insecurity here and there, conflict here and there, insurgency here and there, terrorism here and there. The son, the daughter of the poor man is not even been able to give any opportunity. Let me tell you who are the bandits. It is the students, the people that are on ground, the people that are at home, they use their mentality to become the bandits. And now you push out from the school, out from the institution, what do you want us to become? The Nigerian Labour Congress insists it will embark on another three-day warning strike immediately after the protest, in solidarity with the striking lecturers, until the government meets their demands.

IID has as its mission to build a fairer, more sustainable world, generating evidence, influence and action and working in partnership with others. That final part of the formula for our mission is vitally important to what IID does. Our understanding of where change happens focuses very strongly on the local to national level. So we're not looking solely to influence global discourse, global decisions on sustainability. And because we have that focus on the local and national level in countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, our collaborative work is vital for us as a key component in how we operate and the legitimacy behind what we do. So if we think about how IID operates in a country like Tanzania, for example, we work with partners on the spectrum of issues that IID addresses in Tanzania. We have connections with organisations with strong credibility in addressing urban poverty in understanding urban planning issues. We work with Tanzanian organisations that are experts in agriculture and in food systems. We connect with organisations and government representatives responsible for addressing the impacts of climate change, dealing with volatility and climate. And we work with communications experts in Tanzania who are responsible for engaging with a wider population, engaging with decision makers from a Tanzania perspective. All of those connections are vital for what we do because working in collaboration with those individuals and organisations gives us credibility, legitimises IID's engagement and it provides us with vital information and connections and understanding of context, without which our work would be far poorer, but also far less influential, far less persuasive, far weaker in terms of the quality of what we do. In terms of what IID looks for in our collaborative work in the partnerships that we have in delivery of our research, there are a number of factors that are common across all of that collaboration. So we look for complementary skills and expertise. We're not looking for many IIDs that replicate everything that we do. We're looking for organisations that really bring something new and significant to the work that we're able to do together. We're certainly looking very much for organisations that have the same broad values as us that believe in the same principles in terms of redistribution of resources, redress of imbalance in power and commitments to sustainability in the kind of work that we will carry out together. We're looking for organisations that also are committed to their staff that understand the value that individuals bring, committed individuals within IID and within our partner organisations to delivery of high quality work and the investment that's needed in order to ensure that those individuals are able to grow and improve their effectiveness over time. So we're looking very much in our partnerships for kind of mutual understanding on those kinds of issues. And in all of the interactions that we have, we'd also want to see a strong commitment to transparency, mutual accountability, sharing of information in an open iterative way so that we're not working in a hierarchical way so much as in a meeting of equal partners in the way that we operate.

Païcon, c'est un gros événement pour nous, pour Moral Piton, mais c'est aussi un gros événement en général, je pense, pour la Ville de Montréal. Pourquoi Touriste Montréal était si intéressant de nous aider à avoir cette conférence-là? C'est pour la visibilité que ça donnait à la Ville, mais pas au Québec en tant que tel, mais dans le monde et plus particulièrement aux États-Unis en fait. En groupe à Païcon, ça va rassembler, je pense, au moins 60% d'Américains vont être présents à la conférence. Donc c'est peut-être 1500 personnes qui vont se déplacer de partout aux États-Unis pour venir à la conférence. Donc ça, il y a déjà un aspect, c'est-à-dire qu'il y a des gens qui sont là, d'hôtels, que ça, c'est clair, ça fait rouler l'économie. Mais c'est aussi en fait 125 sponsors, ça reste 125 commanditaires. Donc on parle des plus gros en fait, on parle de Yahoo, Google, Disney. Toutes les grosses compagnies de la Silicon Valley vont être présentes sur place. On veut que ces compagnies-là s'installent ici. Plus il y a d'entreprises de nouvelles technologies en ville, plus j'ai l'impression qu'on va avoir des gens en au meeting, on va avoir un bouillonnement, on va avoir des meilleures emplois, on va avoir des meilleures salaires. Mais en même temps, puis nos sponsors locaux au présent, ils sont alignés avec ces gens-là, si c'est leader mondial. Donc on a une perspective de communication aussi, c'est clair. Montrez qu'on est tactifs déjà présentement à Montréal, puis que la communauté tech est vivante. C'est ça, c'est plus que l'on a parlé des compagnies étrangères qui voudraient être intéressés à s'installer ici. Mais il y a aussi nos compagnies locales ont besoin d'engager elles aussi. Donc il va y avoir plein de gens qui sont des très bons programeurs ou des gens qui sont assez allumés. Une fois à l'emploi, nos compagnies locales vont être capables de rayonner aussi, de se faire connaître par d'autres entreprises et d'autres gens. Après la Silicon Valley, la Saint-Laurent Valley.

Rugby Player Reacts to 2019 NHL All Star Skills Competition HARDEST SHOT!
|
Sup everyone and welcome back to another video!
In this video I take my second look at The 2019 NHL All-Star Skills Competition and this time it's the HARDEST SHOT! Does anyone break 100 mph? Let's find out! Unfortunately in this video my screen recording file was corrupted so I've done what I can with what I had :)
I come to you as an ex-rugby player and I am doing all I can to spread the game of rugby as world wide as possible through my YouTube channel. 2 years ago I dove deep into the world of American Football and other American sports and I'm still absolutely loving it.
What I've decided to do along the way is document my reactions to these sports through a series of YouTube videos titled "Rugby Player Reacts".
I will always give my unbiased and unfiltered reaction to what I watch and in doing so I hope you enjoy the content and can get something positive out of it.
Thanks for watching and much love!

Right guys, I lied. We're back. We're back to watch one more NHL related video and it is the 2018 NHL All-Star skills competition Hardest shot. So I saw a puck control. I saw accuracy. I saw Some skills, but we're not gonna watch that today We're just gonna watch this one thing the hardest shot because I I don't know how they're gonna measure it And that's really interesting to me. So let's see is Conor McDavid in it. That's what I want to know We're two chances each Hardest shot player who records the fastest shot two rounds. Oh, they must have like a must have a laser of some sort measuring the speed Two rounds two attempts per player order of shots for round two is determined by speed slowest to fastest. Okay Fuck you now Burnsey you look like a local from around here Klingberg, Ovechkin, Subaan, Subban, Burns, Stemkos Wait, sure would that Alva Kinnis used was a pretty good weapon in his hands And now the technology is in favor of the shooters John Klingberg Is the leading scorer in the National Hockey League among defensemen. He's on pace for 60 points this season I don't know that he's known around the league for his shot, but his teammates say it's pretty good I like the fact that they they do it in points, which is goals plus assists. I think that's really interesting Yeah, they do and we'll find out here Amazingly in 22 years of competition in this there's only been eight winners So that tells you how often one player dominates Yeah What do you say McGinnis He won the fastest shot eight times in a row Marcy McKinnis, Al McKinnis, Marcel McGinnis McKinnis or McGinnis McKinnis fastest shot the hardest shot The fastest shot sorry All-time record belongs to Zidino Chara at a hundred and eight point eight miles per hour and McKinnis McKinnis's fastest shot in any of The eight that he won was a hundred point four miles per hour Which they're saying is not very close to today's record. Okay? Well, I guess if the winner of this competition slaps it at over a hundred miles per hour We're in business Let's watch Isn't that crazy the fastest pitch in softball is a hundred and six miles per hour and the fastest shot in hockey is a hundred and eight Miles per hour. Is that like a human limit? You know what I mean? Is that is that a human limit as to how fast an object can actually come out of? you know either our hand or or From our foot or just creating movement with an object. Is that the human limit a hundred and ten miles per hour? Let's see Al McKinnis they're talking about The first shot for John Klingburg 66 It's interesting that this hardest shot is What a shot I'm actually really surprised I would have thought that they'd Sort of I wouldn't have thought it'd be a slap shot. I thought it would be like a you know Where they sort of bring this step back, but they've still got the puck on it and then they Bring it forward with as much force as possible, but let's see 98.8 Washington capitals He's looking up on that one Okay, I'm gonna maybe do better my next time a superman is going to be the third shooter and down on the bench in an ice level Joining us for this competition is like There is what's tougher playing goalie looking after all those boys. Oh, man. It's pretty close Find that goal-tending technology has kept a lot of shooters 95 They keep trying to take our gear away They never do that with the sticks. Oh, no, I know they keep making the sticks better, but they're taking more gear away. That's okay It's it's all good We're just talking about how the slap shot is a disappearing shot in the game The reasons for it too many looks like should be in the NFL. Yeah, I think the time it takes to get it off No, I think guys are walking more shots now. It's a new game and I Think every team seems like they're getting in lanes and stuff The quicker you can get at the net now it seems like there's a better option for you. You've seen that shot a few times Look at that muffin One of the things about these types of games is a lot of ribbon goes on, doesn't it? Shot his number I'm assuming that if that so I've seen in every Every one of these guys as they come through the stick Slightly touch it like grazes the ground and then hits the park I'm assuming the hardest shot the most perfect shot would be one where literally it just Was a millimeter away from the ground it doesn't it didn't graze the ground so I'm thinking I'm thinking if the if the stick hits the ground at all. It's gonna take away some of the force, but I don't know Maybe they want to hit the ground because they need to get it underneath the park slightly to get some some height on it I don't know. I've never done a slap shot, but it looks like he's been slapped in the mouth He had a laser beam of a one-time or is that a few of them this season of the other night in Nashville Here's his Go stuck off Stardanny gets it to 95 to Man, I think this gun skewed, you know, I always wonder that don't you it's Temperamental little thing he tried to get a couple of quick strides and hit behind that fuck took a little bit too much off it Like toughest shot for you who's the player in the league but it goes to the rafters you go. Oh, please don't hit me Well, I think the new guy now is a line a and Winnipeg obviously He's a heck of a player, but you know for a long time It's been a bet you can just go the second this he has with this block. How we hold it back and use the whip of the stick It's just real hard shot to read So through this second round with just five shooters in this competition The fastest and Brent Burns gets up to ninety two four for his funny I'm thinking where have I heard that sound before and it's in the NHL PS4 game that literally is exactly the same sound as you as you hear very very lifelike Hmm quite like that sound actually You get his new shot in the game a lot of guys are using now that off speed shot Where they don't worry about rifle it into the net just picking a spot. I hate it to be honest But I think those are the hardest shots the same as the goalie or the ones that They look like they're coming in hard and then all I like this guy the best either change direction Don't go where the shooter wants to shoot it. So if you've been a teammate is one of the best at it Shouldn't make that to eliminate that exactly exactly. No, he's a good kid. He used it well He's a smart player and he's got rewarded for it. He tried as hard as this wasn't enough Sorry Damn that was close Was The only thing I noticed about that shot is it was slightly lower than most of the other ones It's been pretty seamless to be honest At this point my career when you get older that you Realize that you're your chances of winning they're diminishing before your eyes So I think you go to a team like Calgary that has expectations to win now One more shot at Obi has already captured his first ever hardest shot competition because his first shot in Come on, let's get a hundred Yes Yes What a way to finish The winner of the hardest competition like did you get your kids out to this gas for a little today today? Oh, they did not. They're always they're always pirates Who look into the first one that was a clean hit wasn't it? Thanks a lot for stopping by. Thanks for having you guys take care Clay All right, the great eight was the great 98 point eight until that final shot you broke a hundred You said that was your goal Alex. Yeah, I tell the boys I was a little nervous before that I don't like before the game. So Happy to get the win. It's nice Ration so many of your 500 plus goals have come on those one-timers You've had a lot more practice than some of these guys 500 goals. This guy's a legend, isn't he? And I have no idea who he is. Yeah Sometimes it's just one time is from the past Now it's had Never thought I come but I kind of shocked from the standing Well, you're a showman and you got things done tonight. Congratulations Alex. Yeah, thank you 13 straight 30 goal seasons many of the goals scored on a shot just like that 13 straight 30 goal seasons I'm thinking a guy like Conor McDavid is gonna be Like this guy in 10 more years an absolute legend. All right guys. That was a lot of fun. I hope you enjoyed I really do But that is Once and for all the end of the NHL related videos for today. So with that being said I'm not gonna keep you for any longer than I have to And I want to wish you a fantastic day, and I will see you on the next one Peace out everybody

Some of the main questions I get recently have been surrounding how to reinvent yourself or what are the key qualities the most important in terms of personal development. Now in this video I want to share what I think are the three enemies of personal growth and personal development. Hey guys, I'm Alex High, an author of the book Master of the Day. The versed enemy of personal growth and really just improving your life is victimhood because by far there is no other trait or belief you can hold in your head that says number one that I'm powerless and therefore somehow results in action. So behind almost every trait almost every form of self-sabotage almost every form of I feel unmotivated or lazy and tired is some aspect of feeling powerless. You know being in the fitness industry I've seen this with so many coaching clients especially with the women I've coached which is the majority of my coaching clients. I've heard stories that sound almost identical to the following where they say you know what I've always failed before every time I try I fail so screw it I'm just gonna eat the doughnut because you know what if I eat the doughnut at least I'm going to feel good now and how do I know I could just you know I could just as easily sacrifice the next three months for a diet not get results feel like honestly I'm missing out on all the good things in life because no wine and no chocolate and at the end of the day still not reach my goal so I bother this is a complete victim mentality because if you believe that no matter what you do you cannot change anything in your life it's this idea of learned helplessness so you might spot victimhood in your own life where you have beliefs around dating I'm always going to get stuck dating the messed up people you have beliefs around your weight like I just mentioned you have beliefs around money my family has the money curse my mom was bad with money my dad was bad with money we're just bad with money the economy sucks you know I don't have a college degree all of these beliefs are really just saying I believe that I whatever I do will not result in change so therefore you're not even gonna try so the second enemy of personal growth is basically you could call it like clock watching or scorekeeping so looking at another person being like well they had all these advantages that I don't have right Jimmy he was born to a wealthy family he has all these advantages Kelly she was born skinny she doesn't have to worry about dieting she wasn't fat as a kid like me or this person they have they always date great people because their parents are still together happily married they were never beaten or abused and look all those things may be true right okay maybe your friend makes six figures and that's like the dream income from you and you're struggling and you have kids and you have a family and you work way harder and they don't seem to be working that hard it seems so unfair well it is unfair but the point is okay they may be successful and that's what you want cool so what like now what are you gonna do about it okay she may have been born thin with thinner genetics and she doesn't have to work as hard for that goal cool that's great for her but if you want to look that way why does that even matter you still have to do the work okay cool they may always have the best people to date because they're the most attractive and have the best personality cool like you and I we can complain all day long but that still is not going to help us reach the goal that we want whether it is financial fitness dating happiness whatever it is like yes all those people have been given advantages all of us in some way but that still doesn't help you if you're trying to reach a certain goal so the sooner you can stop clock watching or scorekeeping and watching everyone else around you what they have or the perceived advantages the faster you can take action the whole point of identifying these enemies to our personal development is that once you see that at the end of the day you still have to do the work and at the end of the day yes people have advantages and disadvantages but how does that help you the second you realize that is the second you can start taking action and get out of your head now the third enemy of personal development or personal growth is thinking that if you know the right thing in other words knowledge then you're good and there's all green lights the path will illuminate itself so it's this belief that knowledge is power and it's funny because in society we have all of these adages and these sayings about love money success happiness right listen we have sayings for you fall in love when you're not expecting it we also have sayings for you fall in love when that's exactly what you're looking for we have sayings about money where like you can inherit a lot of money or win the lottery or we have sayings about how you can become self-made literally in english there are sayings for every counter belief on every topic and so people just pick and choose whatever belief that they want to resonate with people believe that earning money has to be hard or the only way a person becomes a millionaire is by inheriting it or winning a lotto people actually believe these things and it's just because we cherry pick the evidence that supports the beliefs that we want to have and that's why beliefs are the most dangerous thing in the world because beliefs are the iron shackles we put on ourselves or they're the impetus that just sky rockets you into holistic success however you define that but the thing with knowledge is that knowledge is not power i mean this camera is sitting on a bookshelf of like 150 books and yet i can't at all tell you or that i believe that knowledge is power because i know a lot of smart people that are phd's on health or wellness or cancer and they're fat and they're unhealthy i can tell people that have written relationship books that have three divorces like knowledge is far less important than something you do with the knowledge and i think people get caught up especially in this era in this generation where we have access to the most knowledge in human history and yet people are still as unhealthy as ever more depressed and anxious than ever what does this say to you if they were as simple as knowledge knowing the right info to being successful to being fit to being happy to being spiritually evolved knowing the right info is all it took if that were the case none of the things i just shared would be true and yet they all are and so i think when you make the shift in your life to understanding that knowledge is not power changing your habits is power changing who you are on a daily basis is power and changing your beliefs about the way you think the world works because usually our beliefs are made up from evidence we've picked from our life from our childhood from the negative things from the positive things and when you realize all of these things you understand that okay this is just a story i'm telling myself and the only thing that matters is that i changed the story and then i changed the action and that will unlock all those barriers standing between where you are and where you want to be and who you want to become all right guys so i hope that video helped before you go leave a comment there below let me know for you i guess what is the one aspect of your life you're working on changing the most and what are you struggling with the most in that area all right guys the best way to stay in touch is to grab my free personal development and weight loss challenge i'm

Cuando diseñamos un proyecto gamificado, sucede como cualquier tipo de proyecto. Hay que tener en cuenta la audiencia o el público al que va destinado. Lejos de tener que hacer un estudio de mercado para ello, en el aula este público son nuestros alumnos. Y para atender la diversidad propia del aula o centro educativo, tenemos que conocer los tipos de jugadores con los que contamos. La clasificación más habitual es la que nos trae Bartel. Aunque está orientada el diseño de videojuegos, nos puede ser útil para delimitar, en cierta manera, a nuestros jugadores en el aula. Los triunfadores son jugadores que se desafían a sí mismos, cuando tienen un reto delante y necesitan superarlo a toda costa. Los exploradores son personas más creativas que no siguen las normas porque cuentan con un pensamiento divergente. Los socializadores, seres sociales por excelencia, buscan la conexión con otros jugadores, comunicación y afinidad a un grupo. Los asesinos, inconformistas y obstaculeciadores del progreso de otras, buscan su protagonismo, son conquistadores. El hecho de conocer el tipo de jugadores nos permite introducir dinámicas y mecánicas dirigidas a todos y cada uno de nuestros alumnos, abarcando todos los estilos de aprendizaje presentes en el aula y posibilitando que todos aprendan. Lo ideal es construir un proyecto que tenga en cuenta a todos ellos, introduciendo retos asequibles a cada uno, facilitando variedad de actividades y herramientas con los que cada uno, de manera individual, puede identificarse en la superación de cada reto y alcanzar el objetivo final de aprendizaje, cumplir su misión en el juego.

Welcome to Nation Beat. I am Genelle Norville bringing you this brief on the pulse of our nation and highlights around the heart of Saint Lucia. Saint Lucia was spared the effects of heavy rainfall associated with tropical storm Isaac. Minister of Responsibility for External Affairs speaks on US visa interview waivers. IBSA collaboration bears fruit and family and friends bid farewell to Saint Lucia was spared the effects of heavy rainfall associated with tropical storm Isaac which was expected to produce 50 to 100 millimeters on the island from September 12th to 14th 2018. The center of Isaac passed between Martinique and Dominique with maximum sustained winds of about 45 miles per hour. The system has now weakened into a tropical depression and convection associated with Isaac diminished considerably. Isaac is expected to dissipate within the next few days. The cloud system associated with Isaac remains poorly organized and Saint Lucia fell between the rain bands of Isaac hence the island has thus far not received the expected rainfall. However cloudiness and showers trailing tropical depression Isaac will continue to affect the lesser Antilles including Saint Lucia during the next 24 hours. Residents especially those in flood and landside prone areas are to be vigilant and small craft operators and sea-beavers advised to exercise caution due to locally rough seas. Minister of Responsibility for External Affairs the Honorable Sarah Flood Bobra has welcomed the decision by the US Embassy to implement interview visa waivers in Saint Lucia for qualified applicants wishing to renew their US visas. This came into effect Monday September 10th 2018. Minister Flood Bobra says there are many benefits aligned with this decision. We know for example the cost of air tickets to Barbados to and from most persons applying for non-immigrant visas would have to pay the high cost of these tickets would have to overnight in accommodations in addition of course to the fees that have to be paid for the visas the monies that have to be paid to have the visas or passports FedEx back and we know how exorbitant that can be especially when you have a number of family members applied and for many many years now solutions have had to spend all this money in applying for a US visa and sometimes it is even rejected so we can see immediately what the benefits of that decision is and we do welcome this and thank the United States government for considering doing this at this time. Saint Lucia and passport holders with the exception of beneficiaries of the citizenship by investment programs may qualify for a visa renewal interview waiver if their previous visa expired within the past 12 months. One would have to go online and fill in the usual application form and then one knows whether or not he or she in fact can proceed without having to be present at the US Embassy for the visa interview so the waiver of the interview is not automatic but the what the rule what the new rule says is that we are now eligible providing we make certain criteria so as the Ministry of External Affairs we will be continuing to monitor this to see how how how many Saint Lucia's in fact are able to benefit from this and we would encourage our citizens to continue to be in touch with us so that we can receive information first hand. The applicant must be physically present in Saint Lucia or within the consulate district of the US Embassy in Bridgetown Barbados to avail themselves of this opportunity. Additionally the previous US visa must be in the applicant's possession. Students who wish to renew their visas and who satisfy their four mentioned requirements may qualify for interview waiver if they are applying to continue attendance at the same institution or will continue the same major course of study at a different institution. Applicants seeking to renew work related visas who are returning to work for the same employer or company as annotated on the previous visa may also qualify. Applicants under the age of 14 and over the age of 79 years will continue to qualify for interview waiver in most visa classifications. Applicants who acquired Saint Lucia citizenship via an economic citizenship program and all third country nationals will still be required to schedule visa interviews for visa renewals. The Prime Minister Barbados during the last meeting of the Council of Ministers of Finance and Planning COFAP highlighted the critical role played by the organization in advancing curriculum single market and economy CSME. Listing the region's many challenges she asserted that immediate action was required to undo the damage which is currently being done not only to the country's economic stability but also to its citizens. This was the second meeting of the Council of Ministers of Finance and Planning COFAP held in three months following a five-year period since the last meeting was held. Prime Minister of Barbados mere mortally highlighted some of the common challenges faced by curriculum member states which include but are not limited to the EU blacklisting and the continued struggle to stabilize economies and financial services. Mortally further stated that the fact that countries continue to attract investments in a way that undermined other country's stability reiterated the need for common community investment policy and code. When we look at the investment policy code that was first settled as far back I think as 2008 or 2009 so that we're talking about almost a decade in the wilderness in the absence of being able to settle some of these critical initiatives that this meeting can bring us closer to settling and signing off on them that we can enhance the ability of our citizens to be able to access credit by putting a framework in place that protects both the individual citizen as well as the financial institution is absolutely critical if we are going to give true expression to improving the lot of our citizens. She urged COFAP to address that which is fundamentally linked to the competitiveness of the single market but related to how the economy functions. These she said must be advanced if curriculum is to take the matter of single market to the next level. And I referred to the question of the integrated capital markets of our region all of us are having access problems with respect to capital. Too many of our citizens in the productive sectors too many of our companies in the productive sectors are complaining about the inability to be able to access capital in ways that make sense and at cost that makes sense and to the extent therefore that we can allow for the surplus liquidity in markets to be able to flow to other markets we will have added value to our general ability to move towards greater growth in the region. According to Prime Minister Motley the decisions made at COFAP meeting are critical to the advancement of the CSME. The curriculum single market and economy CSME is an arrangement among the curriculum states for the creation of a single and large economic space for the removal of restrictions resulting in the free movement of goods services people capital and technology. Saint Lucia's legal fraternity on Friday bade farewell to one of its most revered members and he said Antoine attended the special sitting of the High Court held to honor Marcus Peter Foster. Members of the legal fraternity gathered at the Parliament chambers for a special sitting of the OECS court to pay tribute to the late Marcus Peter Foster also known as Ole or Harry who passed away on September 4th 2018. Marcus Foster is the son of Kenneth Foster who is a member of the inner bar and stems from a well-established family in the law field. In 1992 he became the proprietor of Marcus Foster and Associates and contributed immensely to the law system in Saint Lucia during his tenure as an attorney. In correspondence from his brother-in-law Marcus is described as one of Saint Lucia's most distinguished through his potential minds that ever lived. I concur with that sentiment and with permission I docked it now as my own. In that same document Marcus is described as making an indelible contribution to regional jurisprudence which reflects his profound intellectual standing. He was also described as being assiduous and endowed with creativity, ingenuity and possessing a cognitive flexibility of first grade steel. Again with all of these sentiments I concur and with permission I docked them now as my own. To me Marcus had clearly mastered his craft. He was persuasive in closing, swift with counter legal arguments, winning in closing where he may have lost on submissions or winning on submissions where he could not win in closing. All this he accomplished not with venom and animosity but with casual confidence in matter of fact style that was seasoned always with wit and humor. Marcus Foster was a past student of the St. Mary's College, Sir Arthur Lewis Community College, the University of the West Indies Cavill and graduated from the U Woodin Law School in 1989. He had the capacity to and did help lawyers both junior and senior and all lawyers acknowledged that he was a repository of legal genius. Despite this in his character, he had a sense of humility, cloaked in wit and had a natural ability of conceiving his pain in laughter and humor. The funeral service of the late Marcus Peter Foster will be held on Tuesday, September 18th at the minor Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. From the Government Information Service, I am Anisia Antoine reporting. This is Nation Beat. We're back after this break. When you're out at sea, there are no service stations along the way or supermarkets for a quick stop if you need something. It is essential that everything you will need while at sea is on the boat before you leave. That's why pre-sea checks are so important. Checks should be carried out by more than one person to ensure that all essentials are on board. Pre-sea checks should include food stores, extra water and fuel, navigational equipment, safety gear and communication equipment. Before heading out to sea, always ensure that all equipment is in working order. You are stocked up on food and also extra fuel. Call the lighthouse to inform them of your voyage plan and inform someone responsible of your departure time and estimate the time of arrival back on shore. For more information on obtaining a license to fish, contact the Department of Fisheries at 468-4143. Welcome back. An ongoing farming project established in conjunction with the India, Brazil, South Africa, IBSA Fund has yielded several successes. Dr. Darrell Bess, veterinarian and animal husbandry officer in the Ministry of Agriculture said the IBSA Project addressed several sector challenges. We've done what we've actually tried to do for the IBSA Fund. We've actually done different segment or different cohorts. Our first thing was that we actually brought in some new bloodlines of both sheep and goats into the island to help improve our bloodlines and improve the quality of animals that we can make available to the farmers and therefore the farmers to the general public. That has been ongoing for at least a year or two years now and we're actually getting our offsprings out to the farmers and the farmers are getting some good results from the offsprings and therefore they can help now produce or uprofilate these animals. The IBSA grant also provided for educational opportunities for both farmers and technical agriculture officers. In St. Lucia, we've accomplished thus far three farmer fields schools, one in small ruminants, swine and poultry. This is where we actually bring the practical knowledge to the farmers not in a school setting, but a farmer setting. So we actually go out to the farms, it's very hands on. Another part of it is the AI. AI is artificial insemination, where we've actually trained farmers, trained some farmers and our technical staff in the procedures of artificial insemination. We've had our own officers go overseas to Jamaica via Caddy to actually learn these kind of techniques. We've actually held our own AI workshop in St. Lucia sometime last year. Dr. Bess said the workshops have been successful in educating farmers about new practices and preparing them to implement similar procedures. The IBSA project aims to alleviate poverty by improving farming practices. It is being implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization, FAO of the United Nations, in partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture. The St. Lucia Electoral Department encourages the young and the marginalized to participate in the electoral process. This week, the world observes the International Day of Democracy. The United Nations Secretary-General sees this as an opportunity to invigorate democracy by bringing the young and marginalized into the political system. Assistant Chief Elections Officer of St. Lucia's Electoral Department, Olympia Lionel, says her department has taken measures to encourage and accommodate such groups. I must say we fortunate in the Caribbean that St. Lucia is the only country as it relates to democracy, that has taken democracy to the second shorten at the hospital. In 2016, SI number 13, 2016, the law was amended that you can go to a hospital or care institution to allow those persons to exercise their franchise, where at the last general elections, persons were able to cast a ballot right at the bedside. For the care institutions, we were able to do a mobile unit where persons were able to exercise their franchise and for us to move on to the other institution. Lionel also unveiled her department's efforts to further educate citizens on the process of attaining ID cards in an effort to encourage persons to participate in the electoral process. We had a number of issues with the general public in terms of the services we provide and as of last year, we had instituted the customer service desk where we created checklists with the different requirements for a new registrant and non-elector to change your address, if you change your name. So somebody coming to electoral department would go to the customer service desk where the customer service rep would check our system and let you know what is required for whatever transaction you come in to do. International Day of Democracy is observed annually on September 15. The observance was established through a resolution passed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2007. St. Lucian's, both here and in the diaspora, watched the live stream of the memorial service for both of them, who was shot and killed in his Dallas apartment last Thursday. The more than a four hour long service was marked by worship, praise, stories about Gia's adventures, endeavours and aspirations. His uncle, former government minister Ignicia Gia, eulogized the 26 year old. The Carter School of Business at Botham's Beloved Harding University asked me if I would consider helping a brilliant highly Christ-centered, extremely personable, sterling young man from St. Lucia. They said, we really only want you to do two things. Number one, obtain for him a quality internship in Dallas. Hopefully, hopefully with his first round draft pick, Price, Waterhouse, Cooper, PWC, no less, both of them aimed high. Both of them aimed high in his pursuit of excellence in everything. PWC is hurting, not just in Dallas, but all across our country. And I want to thank you all for the opportunity to share with Bo and to 55,000 people in PWC. I'm honored to pay tribute to Bo in his memory with all of you. For you are the people who love Bo and the people that Bo loved the most. And especially to Bo's family. I am amazed by your strength and I am in awe of what an incredible young man you raised. And I hope, by my few words, I can give you the comfort that he will never be forgotten. My name is Todd Gentry. I'm the campus minister in Botham in 2011. I got to meet him. Later on, he became my intern in ministry. In 2011, Botham said, Todd, why don't you lead a group of students to my island of St. Lucia? It's a beautiful place. I've been leading students to other places and doing other things. And so we got together in 2012 was our first trip to St. Lucia. I wish that all of you could see him in those moments. We went and worked with children that did not have parents. He was good with both the little ones and the old ones. We walked along the streets of grossly St. Lucia and helped everyone that needed something done, whether it meant taking a machete to a grown-up lot or fixing a door, or just singing with people that needed a friend. We went to the juvenile detention center and let know a bunch of boys that needed hope that there was hope. And we played soccer. And in six years, they beat us once. But anyway, and Botham wasn't a good soccer player. We went into the nursing homes of Castries and Viewfort. And Botham Shaw loved those people. And he combed their hair. And he sang to them. And he loved them. And he cleaned up their messes. We went to the hospitals in Castries and Viewfort. And at every hospital bed, we stopped. And we prayed. And we sang. And we talked. That's who Botham was. I won't miss him. But I will see him again. Because while I was his mentor, he touched me. And he changed me too. Botham was our prince. And as evidence by the outpouring of expressions of outrage, love, sympathy, and solidarity from near and far, in the four corners of the globe, he was truly a prince of the people. Our star was about to complete his 27th orbit around the sun on the 29th of September. His brilliance had radiated a universe. We give thanks to the true and almighty God, Most High, for gracing us with the presence of this change agent, Good day, please. Asuujinu, our brothers, lead us to糾 with our machines. Our brothers, with peace and blessing. Let our brothers, lead us to the cross. A'ai-ai-ai- dear он We will enjoy themselves So I will visit you That's a nation beat. Join us next time as we fill the pulse and heart of our community. I am Janelle Norville.

Kids playrooms are so much fun to do. One thing we always consider when designing a kids room is how the room can be modified as the kids grow older and how it works with other doors in the area. That's why Schlagg Custom is the perfect accessory for your door. It looks amazing and you can easily add the locking pin so the kids can have privacy when they're older. For all our projects, our interior designers pay close attention to every detail. Homeowners are looking for that wow factor. You have that special high quality designer touch at an affordable price.

So, why don't you start with your name and where you're from? My name is Octavio and I was born and raised here in Tri-Cities. Thank you for agreeing to share your story with us. Why don't you start telling us what happened before your need for deliverance? Okay, so I grew up Catholic and we didn't really ever go to church, but growing up Latino, I was very aware of the spiritual world and spiritual warfare. So, I knew how I would identify when there was a spiritual attack and growing up, I could always see things and feel things and I would have sleep paralysis and see, you know, spirits and whatnot. So, I knew what was going on. When I was 17, I had a friend that cast some demon onto me and within the month, I was like having really suicidal thoughts. I was always afraid, always looking over my shoulder. I felt this presence and I was just scared and it got to a point where I couldn't sleep through the night. Every night, I would wake up and I'd wake up with scratches on my back, like really deep scratches. I would get messed with at night, like pulled and sleep paralysis and got to a point where I was taking Nyquil every night just to sleep through the night. Maybe within the month from there, I had two heart attacks and after my dad, like maybe a few days after, he was like, I think someone sent something to you. I think there's a demon on you. So, at the time, we didn't know there was any churches doing any kind of deliverance in the state. So, he's like going to Mexico. So, he sent me to Mexico and a lot of crazy, unexplainable, scientifically unexplainable things happened. But during the deliverance, I didn't manifest, but when it came out, I could see the shadow. And it was running like all over the house and picking up pets that were there. I picked up a bird and started shaking it, like trying to kill just whatever was there. Eventually, it left and I've been fine ever since. No more thoughts, no sleep paralysis, nothing since. Wow, praise God for that. You mentioned also that you had two heart attacks. I can imagine that with some, with the heart attacks, came a level of health problems. Is that true? And if so, could you share anything about that for the audience? Yeah, I never really addressed any of the issues. I was told to go back to the hospital, but I didn't want to go back and get put on all kinds of medication and then just one after the other and just downhill from there. So, I never went back. I just changed my diet. I thought I was eating healthy. I was going to the gym a lot. I was in good shape and I thought that was enough. And within a year, my hair started to fall out and it started slowly and then it progressively just got faster and faster. And I got to a point where every time I'd run my hands through my hair, I'd have clumps falling out and I knew it wasn't normal. And so, I started seeking help and I went to all kinds of doctors, dermatologists, I did punch biopsies, I did everything under the sun, topical, nothing worked, nothing slowed it down, nothing stopped it. Got to a point where my hairline was super far back. I was almost slick up top. And I just, I gave up after a year of trying to fix it. And then about two years ago, I had my chest pains came back. Just out of nowhere from one day to the next. It got super bad. There was a lot of pressure. Got to a point where I was like waking up in the middle of the night, like feeling claustrophobic. So, I was like, I probably won't survive a third heart attack. So, I started to look for help. And a friend of mine had just moved to LA and she happened to run into this holistic doctor. And I was like, look at God, you know, make me an appointment. So, we went and I had a hat on. And at the time, I wouldn't go anywhere without a hat because I was almost slick up top. I was super embarrassed about it. But when I showed up, she just ran some tests and she's like, are you having any hair loss? And I was like, yeah. She goes, are you having any chest pains? I said, yes. She was about to have a heart attack. And I told her about my previous two. And she was like, if you don't listen to me, you'll be done within the month. So, she put me on a plant-based whole food diet. I couldn't even do any avocados, no nuts. They're too high in fat and no seed oils. And within, oh, and a liter of carrot juice a day. And within a month, my chest pains went away. Two months, my hair stopped falling out. Six months, I started growing back in and moving back down. And eight months, I opened up a juice bar in Kennewick. Amen. Wow. God not only can help or like, God not only uses the doctors and the medicine and the spiritual aspect, but also when we put our part into our health, God can use that too to restore our body. So, it's incredible that that happened. How did you find Hungry Jen and what's happened in your life since? Yeah, so two months after opening up the shop, some people came through and they were like, oh, we just drove six hours. We're going to Hungry Jen. There's this conference going on. And they do a lot of work in deliverance. And I was like, here in Tri-Cities? And they're like, yeah, we're here in Tri-Cities. So I pulled up a video and I was like, no way. It's been under my nose this whole time. I went all the way to Mexico. I could have driven 10 minutes to get delivered. So I came that same night. And sure enough, if people were up here getting delivered, I was standing right there interceding the whole time. And I was like, wow, just a breath of fresh air. Now my mom's been coming. She's been an alcoholic my whole life. We've had a very rocky relationship since being delivered. She's been sober almost a year now. Amen. Wow. What an incredible story. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us.

I sold when I was young. I learned very quickly. The better I got, the more I felt comfortable about me. The more people felt comfortable about me. And like Kobe Bryant mastered basketball. I mastered speaking. I mastered sales. And dude, like there's no limits. There's no end. Even to this day, every day I listen to people. I learn new word tracks. I learn new language. I watch the way that people work. Like I'm learning everything. I am a student of the game. I study at 25-7. But like all these things, these are things that I would say separate the great from the amateurs, the pros from the amateurs. Why do some people speak better than others? You know why? They study. They practice. They learn new words. They're leaning into leadership training every day. They're doing the training themselves. Guys, I wanna tell you the fastest way to lose your team. The fastest way. The fastest way to not inspire people. The fastest way to have people quit. For people to not choose you as their mentor and be recruited by another company and leave. The fastest way to make it happen is for you to get dull. Never let your team outgrow you. Every day, everyone is required to learn. That's all I care about. You must learn every day. So every day, since one of our core values is always be learning, I have a rule in our company and it's to be direct with anybody and everybody at any point in time if there's an opportunity to teach them to grow because we're always learning. If you guys will listen, you'll understand how to give everybody a life transformation in their new life or help them with your product or help anybody with any product and you'll understand that really what you guys all do is really all the same. They be different products, but it's all the same. But you're so small minded, you're like, that doesn't have anything to do with me. You just stopped learning to end and that's the reason why you can't grow. You wanna study people in your space or study people outside of your space and bring new language into your space. Come on, man. Who do you think the markets is gonna reward right now? People who are the same, unique, rare, different. People that stand out. People that can make connections. Guys, listen to me. The rules have changed. What worked three years ago doesn't work today. A lot of you are doing what you did three years ago. You're giving it your hardest, you're grinding, but the rules change and no one told you. It's about skill stacking. Everybody write this down, 100 micro skills. Today, my goal is for you to learn 100 micro skills, to learn 100 different ways to add something to skill stack, to stack skills in your current life, okay? The only way to wealth is through self-education. Whoever is willing to self-develop and self-educate the most will end up at the top. If you wanna dissolve your competition, dissolve them. They don't even exist. Self-improve every day. Most people self-improve just enough to make a quarter of a million, a million, and then they slow down. I'm not slowing down. You know why? Because this universe is very giving. It'll give you whatever you want. All of it. But every single day, you gotta get sharper. Learn from people that teach in an application. They did it. People who teach in theory. You know why my training works? Do you know why it works? Because I put myself in her shoes. I know what the hell she's going through, okay? I know what he's going through. I know what you're going through. I know it. I knew what he was going through. Right here, when he walked up, he's like us, man. It's bad for you not to train every day. Am I right? Okay, you see what I'm saying? I'm going to pressure you today to train.

Déclaration des députés, le député des York Sud-Ouest. Merci, monsieur le Président, je prends la parole pour parler de l'urgence du contrôle des loyers. Les locataires de la construction de York Sud-Ouest font face à des avis d'augmentation de loyers qui dépassent 10% d'une erreur d'annuler le contrôle des loyers et des loquataires de ma circonscription sont inquiets et de plus en plus de loquataires tirent la sonate à l'alarmes. Les personnes ne peuvent pas se permettre de payer ces augmentations à l'avis de Toronto à d'autres émotions demandant au gouvernement de rétablir le contrôle des loyers. Un semaine dernière, monsieur le Président, moi, ma collègue de Toronto-Centre a déposé un projet de loi demandant au gouvernement promiscale d'annuler ces changements au contrôle des loyers, les choses s'aggravent, plutôt d'honorer sa promesse de rendre le logement plus ordable le premier ministre permette aux propriétaires de s'en mettre plein les poches. Le moment est venu de défendre les trois des loquataires. Le gouvernement doit rétablir le contrôle des loyers. Les loquataires sont en train d'être expulsés par les propriétaires et donc le nombre d'expulsions a connu une formée. La province a besoin d'une charte de droit pour les loquataires, accès sur le contrôle des loyers et limitant la capacité des propriétaires d'expulser les loquataires. D'avantage de financement est aussi nécessaire pour les cliniques d'aide juridique et un programme de prévention des expulsions doit être établi. J'aimerais rappeler aux députés qu'il faut t'employer les titres ministériels ou les noms des circonscriptions. Déclaration des députés, le R&D de la ministre de l'Ontario. Récemment, j'étais en compagnie du ministre des affaires des personnes âgées ainsi que son adjoint parlementaire pour annoncer que l'autre gouvernement investira 150 000 dollars pour permettre aux personnes âgées de demeurer actifs. Et donc il y a des subventions pour des centres pour personnes âgées à Mississauga, il y a aussi de subventions communautaires de 20 000 dollars. Et donc le programme May and Heart Financé et les cours d'art seront fabriqués par notre gouvernement mamma mère, elle était en bonne santé jusqu'à l'âge de 90. 30 % des personnes âgées ont un risque d'être isolés, ceux qui peuvent entraîner, des problèmes sanitaires. Il faut donc travailler ensemble pour que les personnes âgées puissent demeurer actives à l'échelle de la province. Merci, monsieur le président. Le député de Windsor est comme c'est, monsieur le président, qu'un jour avant Noël est donc... J'ai créé une liste de cadeaux. J'aimerais passer à la première rongée de l'opposition. C'est là-bas où se passe l'action. C'est la télé de l'Assemblée législative entre vous, monsieur le président, et la porte. L'entrée principale, c'est là où les députés sont plein et je le regarde ici, au balcon. Mais je me demande comment c'est d'être si près du premier ministre. En fin du revêt, moi, je ne peux pas faire ces machinations saisonnières. Je ne veux pas payer la note pour être très proche et la note pour être là-bas. Il y a moins de pression ici dans les estrades. Je vais donner mes cadeaux aux enfants, aux parents ou aux travailleurs en éducation. Je veux qu'une éau que l'apprentissage en ligne et il doit y avoir moins d'élèves en salle de classe. Déclaration. Déclaration. Déclaration. Déclaration. Déclaration. Déclaration. Je prends la parole pour reconnaître l'exemple travail de deux cométants de Sarnia-Lampton, Annabelle Rason et sa mère Stephanie Lopsen. Annabelle, ancienne part à l'Assemblée Legislative et élèves de l'École Sympathique, ainsi que sa mère coordonne, coordonne un programme de collecte de dons pour au Noël. Le projet existe à faire la collecte de biens pour maire iténérante. Lorsque Annabelle retournait chez elle, elle s'est penchée sur ce projet. Elle a appris qu'il n'y avait pas de continatrice locale. Et donc ils ont fondé le projet de boîte à chaussures. Ils ont fait la collecte de 287 boîtes à chaussures cette année. Elles espèrent voir la générosité de leur communauté. Toutes ces boîtes seront données aux femmes à risque de Sarnia-Lampton. Je félicite Annabelle et Stephanie et tous ceux et celles qui ont donné cet excellent projet. Si vous vous intéressez au projet des boîtes à chaussures, veuillez envoyer une courriel à mon bureau. Merci beaucoup. Merci, Monsieur le Président. Je prends la parole comme canadienne d'origine tibetaine. J'aimerais reconnaître le fait qu'on s'adresse au 30e anniversaire de l'obtention du prix Nobel qui s'est battu pour la libération du tibet sans recours à la violence. Les tibetains sont toujours à la recherche de leur liberté et la situation au tibet s'aggrave. Agnès Senta, défenseur environnementale, a rassu une peine de 7 ans en présentation. Il a été emprisonné pour avoir demandé les droits linguistiques. Depuis 2009, il y a eu un très grand nombre de manifestations contre l'occupation chinoise sur le tibet. Et ça se passe aussi à Hong Kong. Une fuite de documents confirme ce que disent les Uighurs sur la détention en masse. Et la lutte pour la vie démocratie à Hong Kong est malgré les efforts du gouvernement chinois. Les gens descendent que jouent dans la rue. Comme l'a dit, sans la tasse, nous voulons tous pouvoir déterminer nos propres destins. Qu'en tant qu'acadéens, nous devons être en solidarité avec les gens de Hong Kong et ailleurs pour défendre leur droit. Nous sommes obligés de défendre la liberté d'autrui. Merci. Merci. Merci. La députée du Don Valley West. Merci, Monsieur le Président. Demain, le soir, je serai avec Derek Rumble. Derek est le président du Centre d'Excellence de Bob Rumble. Je sais que très grand nombre de personnes ont pu se rendre au Centre sur la Rue des Vues, pour participer au programme pour les personnes malentendantes, où il y a des cours de l'ordre des signes et également des services de santé mentale pour enfants et adultes malentendants. C'est un endroit extraordinaire avec d'excellents bénévoles. Derek, par rapport à l'histoire du Centre Rumble, qui a desservé énormément de gens depuis 1979, c'était la vision de Bob Rumble, le père de Derek, qui a été au cours coeur de ce Centre. En 1956, Bob s'est rendu compte des défis auxquels faisait face les malentendants et il est devenu ministre de l'Église pour les sourds. Il s'est battu pour leurs intérêts pendant toute sa vie adulte et l'accueil au camp, ainsi qu'au foyer de soins de longue durée. Bob, c'était un homme de renaissance, il était jour fois de football, il était nommé au nom de l'Ordre de l'Ontario et du Canada. Il y a des entreprises familiales, il y a des entreprises familiales, il y a aussi des vocations familiales. Derek, c'est un défenseur des personnes malentendantes jusqu'à Bob Rumble Centre, je suis honoré, mais en truth, le Centre appartient à la province nous devons énormément à cette famille. La députée de Carleton, je suis tristée de prendre la parole Thomas James Cabana, nous a quitté le 5 décembre 2019. Il est entouré de ses proches, y compris sa femme Kaye, selon Tom Adoré, en 1953, il a créé son entreprise qui avait plus de 800 employés d'armes étaient très fiers des familles qui ont pu faire l'eau de gagne peint grâce à son entreprise. Il n'était pas uniquement le fondateur de cette entreprise, il était homme communautaire, il a donné de son temps et de son argent à plusieurs associations communautaires. Je le voyais à chaque événement communautaire avec sa femme Kaye, qui est en train de faire ses proches aux annuales dinaires à la province. Tom l'a toujours pu attendre, et de ses supports, sa famille a donné un plus grand remontant de ses communautés, et il nous manquera. Il parlait vite, il conduisait vite, et il vivait vite. Il était même trop généreux pour honorer sa mémoire et pour continuer sa tradition La Fondation Thomas Kavanaugh poursuivra sa tradition. Mais plus sincère condoléance à sa famille et à ses amis. Le député de Thunder Bay Atta Coken. Merci Monsieur le Président. Aujourd'hui, il y a des familles du Nord à Queen's Park qui sont là pour parler du programme pour enfants autistes dysfonctionnels. Mon projet de loi a été adopté en 2e lecture. Je demande au gouvernement de faire adopter en 3e lecture mon projet de loi. J'aimerais également parler d'une autre projet de loi rejetée par le gouvernement qui visait à rendre les autoroutes une autre plus sécuritaire. Le Docteur de Jarls m'a écrit une lettre sur ces autoroutes et il a dit que le fait que ce projet de loi a été rejeté a été tout à fait troublant pour les gens du Nord comme urgentologue. J'ai vu l'impact des ces routes non sécuritaires en mettre à risque les secouristes lorsqu'ils seront sur la scène d'une accident. C'est inacceptable de moins valoriser les vies des gens du Nord. Queen's Park doit reconnaître les des avantages des gens du Nord. Je suis, j'en suis d'accord. Nous devons créer une situation équitable pour les gens du Nord. Le moment est venu de faire en sorte que les gens du Nord aient accès au service d'autisme que les routes soient sécurités en hiver et que le rengoursement pour déplacement au Nord soit amélioré. Merci, Monsieur le Président. Je vais prendre la parole pour vous mettre un jour concernant les efforts de notre gouvernement pour améliorer les soins paléatifs dans la région de Durham. À Durham, il n'y a aucune hospice présidentielle. Voici l'impact de 15 ans du gouvernement libéral. Le 8 novembre, j'ai été avec la ministre de la Santé pour annoncer que le premier hospice sera à Port Perry. Il y a aussi un plan élargi pour cette hospice. C'est un exemple de l'investissement intelligent. Nous avons annoncé ce que ce 600 000 $ en financement qui s'ajoutera au montant 2 millions de dollars. Il y a trois lieux de plus à l'hospice Oak Ridge de Port Perry. Originairement, il y en aurait cinq mais maintenant il y en aura huit. En élargissant le plan avant la construction, le projet coûtera moins cher au compte préviable. Une fois ouvert, l'hospice aura le soutien de notre gouvernement sous forme de 840 000 $ par an en financement pour soutenir les soins en fin de vie pour 120 patients dans la région de Durham. Merci, Monsieur le Président. Aujourd'hui, j'y vais dans la reconnaissance de la communauté canadienne comme ils marquent un anniversaire spécial. 30 ans avant aujourd'hui, le Président de l'Université d'Allemagne a reconnu son travail pour l'advocation du sentiment envers le août du 1911, fuels de l'économie de la Chine et par d'autres droits de la Chine. L'interprète financière de la Chine a mise en place un crises et des hémislations d'un paix pour le travail de l'Etat. La Chine a reçu des défis pour la restoration du paix et de l'esprit du Parti humaniste. L'Education de la Chine a autorisé et suggestions. Et je voudrais aussi féliciter la part de l'un des premières libétés de la communauté du Canada, qui est une des premières libétés de la communauté du Canada. Merci beaucoup. Rapports par les commissions. Je remercie les raps,

Does Stretched Resolution help? (for aiming and fps)
|
Does stretched resolution help with aim in fps games? Yes, but it depends on the game. Valorant doesn't change the fov or the hitboxes. in csgo, it's widely used because you can see the enemy more clear, allowing you to hit more shots, but it's really a psychological effect on the eyes because you think the enemy is closer but the actual hitbox doesn't change.

Does Stretch Resolution Help? This video is only for PC players. You might have heard that many pros are switching to Stretch Resolution, mainly in games like Fortnite and CSGO. Doesn't help you in game? Really? It depends on the game. But I recommend it. It makes hitboxes look bigger, which isn't technically an advantage, but it checks your eye into thinking the target is bigger. If you think enemies look bigger, it's probably for you. I don't know the situation with CSGO and other shooters, but it most likely affects FOV. Another advantage of Stretch Res is that it gives you more FPS. How much FPS depends on your PC and the game. Again, it's really not really an advantage because the actual hitbox isn't getting bigger. To use Stretch Resolution, it depends on each game. I highly recommend to check out a guide on your specific game you want Stretch Resolution. Thanks for watching and let's have a discussion about this in the comments below.

Welcome to the Leaders Mindset where we have illuminating conversations with leaders, entrepreneurs, and community builders who are having an impact in the world around them and how they're building the teams and being the leaders they need to be to make that impact a reality. Today I'm here with Sarah Ramthon. She's the founder of Real Prep Meal Prep. She's been a personal trainer, a fitness competitor, and now an entrepreneur. Welcome and thank you for being here Sarah. Thank you. So let's get into it. Tell us about Real Prep Meal Prep. What were you doing before you started Real Prep Meal Prep? How did it start? What was the catalyst? What really got you started doing it? Before I started the company I was doing personal training and nutrition coaching for four years at Snap Fitness in Boulder City. And when COVID shut down the gyms I had tried to rebuild my clientele when they opened it back and then they shut us down again. So during that time I was still training a few clients out the park or at home and I needed to figure out a way to make more income. So I started feeding my clientele. And it was really just a plan to hold me over through the time that I couldn't work in the gym. And I started training them and they got very passionate into their results. Real quickly they started getting quick results faster than when I was training them in the gym and they were cooking their own meals that I was assigning to them. So my clients started telling me that I should start selling them to other people. So they suggested to put them on social media. Next thing I knew I was selling to Henderson and Vegas too and I'm from Boulder City so I just kind of ventured out further and further. After that from October to January I decided to legalize the business. And I got all the permits. I got all the paperwork done and I put us into a commissary kitchen come February. So again I still wasn't sure where it was going to go. But I thought well it went well at home and let's just give it a shot. And then from there I really just grew the moment that I became a real company and I started really advertising on social media, posting, talking about it, sharing my own results with my own food that I now make into meals for other people. That it really just happened naturally and organically. I honestly don't think that I at first had the intentions of it becoming anything other than to hold me over through COVID. I do believe that the company has chosen me over the time. Next thing I knew I was selling to doctors, nutritionists, bodybuilders that are famous, Olympians, fighters, jiu-jitsu artists. The list goes on and on and I really wanted to create a company that had no gimmicks. That was where my passion started where I felt that I could do something different being an athlete myself and eating at the companies that were provided to me. I would notice that my results would go backwards or my meals weren't always right dialed in and I would start to decline in results. So when I created the company it was a very big passion of mine to create the real deal meal prep. Yeah I think one of the things that's super impressive is how you grew from word of mouth through social media and now your clients span the gamut from folks who just want to eat a little better up through your athletes which is really impressive and then you have all these partnerships as well. And what is it that you're doing that that attracts all of these people to you because when you look around on social media when you look around there's dozens if not hundreds of people doing meal prep here in the Las Vegas Valley. What makes you special? What makes it unique about what you're doing that is attracting so much attention from people who are really serious about their meals? I think that there's a few things that make me stand out which would be one like I said the gimmick free. The no sugar, the no gluten, no dairy, no flour. So anybody who really knows a lot about nutrition knows right away that for fitness goals or health goals those are going to be the first things that coaches are going to cut from your diet or even doctors. So people who are educated are going to see that and know instantly oh I want to try that then people who don't know these things I educate them I talk to them I get calls all the time and I love to take those calls. Another thing that sets me apart that I notice upon watching my other competitors is that I do this with my customers. I constantly I'm a normal person I go up and down and wait I'm a female when I'm stressed I want to eat I I don't know I'll have that movie night with my kid or my friends and and I just go off the rampage and and then the next day I get back on I'm right back out that treadmill and I'm right there showing my meals and I confess this stuff to all of my clientele I tell I post it I tell them oh you know I did buy it last night so today I'm going to work harder today I'm going to lift heavy today I'm going to do that I constantly I'm sharing this stuff with people so they're not only watching or getting inspired but sometimes they're they're learning and being educated they constantly I have many people who constantly comment on these things and they're like thank you so much I'm going to get up and go to the gym now too um I'll put up there I'll be filming my cardio and I'll tell them you know I'm on doing my cardio who's with me today and I'll get many people they're like me me me or I wasn't but now I am you know and so I've seen those comments yeah so so I mean I didn't really know that that was going to happen but I just started sharing the lifestyle because I live the lifestyle myself so I see how everybody does all these stories and all these things all day long and I was like maybe I should just start kind of sharing how I do this how I did it what I do when I mess up what happens when I sit on the scale and I'm 10 pounds up overnight it seems like even though I know it probably took me two months to get that 10 pounds and the multiple choices I got me there but I admit that or when holidays are coming I always diet down with my audience during holidays to show them that when we're expecting that 10 pound weight gain we can actually turn it into a 10 pound weight loss and then we can really enjoy that eating of the holiday because we've worked to get there so I do things like I set goals with people and I'm like okay this week I know that I'm going to Thanksgiving and I want to eat the pie I want to eat the jelly I want to eat everything on that table I'm going to eat it I already know this so for the week of coming up to I tell everyone okay guys I'm going to lower my carbs I'm going to keep my cardio up and I'm going to do this I'm going to have that day we're not going to go backwards and I share with them my weight I post it I tell them and then I share with them after the cheat often I drop two pounds after the holiday because I dieted going into it so when they see that these results work a lot of them copy me they do it with me and they'll tell me they'll like I said they write me they call me they'll tell me I'm going to try that I'm going to try that and they all get these great results and so they kind of learn mirroring what I'm doing and I think that makes the difference the holidays are coming up so follow Sarah now and then you will have lost weight by the end of the holidays instead of gained weight yeah yeah you know you can and or at least we can maintain you you know and if we do put on a few pounds we're going to get it right back off and that's what I tell people I fall off all the time multiple times a year I fall off but my only trick and the best advice is I get back on yeah you're you're so open and genuine on your social media and that translates into what you're doing with the company because I know that no gluten no sugar is not just a sticker you put on your meals like some companies do it's the truth you you are are very disciplined about what you put in there and you're disciplined with your processes as well can you tell us a little more about how you prep the meals what what your thought process is how you how you get this to serve your customers so they know exactly what they're getting so when we when we prepare the meals everything is measured in my company so all the way down to every recipe of the proteins big thing that we do make sure that we do is we keep our fats very low I keep all oils down we use only organic avocado oil and we use like one teaspoon per 10 pounds of meat so this is not enough to tamper with anybody's results or fats that they're counting in a meal my meals come as low fat as I can keep them so same thing my vegetables they have no oils my carbs no oils no butters no no they're any of that so everything is is clean as I can get it for you and as low fat as I can get it for you from your chicken to your sirloin it is trimmed before cooking so we're not cooking the fats and letting that oil get onto your meat either and and not only is it trimmed before cooking but you have these beautiful spreadsheets that you have and everything is measured weight and calculated so that everything is 100 percent precise that if you're supposed to have four ounces in that meal four ounces of protein in that meal it's four ounces of yes yes this is something that my company is very legit on we weigh every meal out to the portion if you're ordering and we cook to to we cook to cooked weight so like when I'm doing the calculations night before I have to add shrinkage into this there's companies out there that you order a four ounce chicken and when you get it if you're someone who's counting everything you might weigh that and it's going to weigh two and a half to three ounces and you call a company say I thought I got the four ounces they'll say well that was the the raw weight well I was trying to order four ounces cooked you know like wait a second and so my company I serve and cooked weight every protein has a different shrinkage I learned and over the time I've had to dial those percentages in so an easy math chicken shrinks 50 percent if I have 100 pounds ordered I'm cooking 150 pounds to land at 100 pounds cooked so I can serve my customers their cooked weight tell us why it's important that if you order four ounces you don't get less than four ounces or six ounces or whatever it is because I didn't know this till you and I talked in a little more detail why is that really important so the reason that is very important that our measurements are spot on in my company and the passion behind it is that I myself have been through my own fitness journey I once was 180 pounds then I got down to 120 I got down to 50 to 60 pounds I had right in between I started dieting very hard and when I became the personal trainer and athlete I did a nutrition coaching I learned about calories and macro balancing and how to count everything versus my burning or my food intake so when I am dieting personally I'm counting everything that four ounces of meat matters because if you cut you know even one to two ounces of something or you're lowering my carb or raising my carb you're throwing my numbers off by 200 calories potentially 150 100 it doesn't matter if I eat 21 meals of yours a week and my meals are off 100 calories that's 2100 calories that you have changed my meal plan for that week of total calories I need to take in whether it's a surplus or negative so if it's a negative then I am now suffering a lot more than I should be during that deficit that I plan to be in which then can lead to the plateau of me now cheating I got a binge I got I'm going crazy I'm yelling I'm frustrated you know the psycho comes out if you're too hungry and that's something I teach my clientele when I start helping them diet down is I will do two week check-ins with them until I have them where we're not at that borderline crazy so tampering with someone's numbers is a huge deal especially if they're trying to lose weight on the other hand if somebody's up you know 2100 calories a week they weren't planning that could be a two pound weight gain when we were supposed to go down two pounds so so measure your food or have Sarah do it for you so you've had a lot of success doing this in your own life your clients have had a lot of success what are some of your favorite success stories from your clients I have I have a lot of good ones I think my favorite success story I had a client named Ernest and he was my first diabetic and I told him right away I've never done this but I met him out of Best Buy and I was carrying some personal training cup and I was getting a new phone and and he asked me you know what do you do and I told him I was training he's like I've been on a mission so over the time period that I learned to work with Ernest and to not to mess with his sugar levels and put him in danger but trying to lose weight and then we lost 75 pounds safely and he actually ended up lowering his insulin to almost 25 percent of what he was doing before and so I think for me that was definitely a big experience emotionally and also confidence because I was intimidated to take him on and I admitted that to him right away and then I said you know but he was checking his insulin all day so we were making sure that we were safe when I started putting muscle back on him we started checking make sure we weren't spiking him too high we learned which carbs spike him more than other carbs so we really dialed it in personally he was one of my I think most emotional journeys because I really he changed his entire life and I still coach him today it's been three years now that's fantastic it it shows just how much you're in a partnership with your with your customers even if you are preparing just preparing their meals and you're not coaching them just how much of a partnership you have with them to make sure that they succeed yes I think everybody's journey that I work with is very emotional and they all have their own story of how they lost themselves what happened who died in their life who passed away what divorce what it it's always so emotional and I'm so passionate to help people that I get involved in that and so when my clients lose 10 pounds that's their first goal 10 20 30 we have these milestones I'm I'm in tears like I'm crying for them because I know how hard they work for it and they call me on the bad days they call me when they're when they're so hungry sir I don't think I'm gonna make it till tomorrow okay let's get you a yogurt it's okay calm down you need a yogurt you know like and so going through it with them has really enlightened me it's really softened me to to feel that passionate because I can relate to them to having my experiences and going through the 50 pound weight loss that now when I'm working with especially women who are more emotional those the tears that they cry throughout the journey to lose that weight it's I can completely like sit there and I remember this I remember this and it's gonna be okay and I walk them through it and so the bond with my clients starts to feel more like a family versus client or friend it's becomes people that I am out to protect or help them and they're all an emotional journey they all touch my heart yeah we only need to look at your Instagram to see that yeah they're they inspire me so much so there's a lot of technical work involved a lot of math in what you do to make sure you serve your clients in this way and help them be successful yes what are some of your favorite tools that you use technical or otherwise to get your work done I'm a big spreadsheets nerd I love my spreadsheets I have spreadsheets galore folders after folders after folders even like my I have clientele that I do their strict nutrition plans we are redial and we measure everything exactly the way their coaches have written it or their doctors and dietitians I get those onto the spreadsheets and I calculate them from there I work back and forth with my partnerships on spreadsheets that are on these more elite plans then from there yes I do all of the math I transfer it from my website into a sheets folder and I calculate certain send all the numbers the meats the flavors the proteins the carbs the vegetables and I separate them all I organize them all into sizes and the calculations that is probably the hardest part of the computer work that took me a long time to learn and even some weeks I'm still need a little assistance every once in a while if I get stumped but now I finally going closer to two years into this I now hired a programmer about six months ago and he's been building me a program where now it's transferring over and it's doing the reorganizing for me where before I did that manually I dragged everything and moved it because of course the website doesn't just send it in order for you it comes in the random order that it was ordered in so I have to reorganize it so that's been a big time saver I was spending my order window closes Saturday night at 8 p.m. and I would be on the computer till midnight or 1 a.m. calculating we've had some chats yes and that was normal for a year and a half and then I yeah it was it was really crazy and so now it's gotten down to where it's about an hour of time with the system built and I want to emphasize when she talks about doing all this math we're not talking about doing this for like 10 meals you're you're going out and you're you're building these spreadsheets because you're going out and you're you're buying hundreds of pounds of food every Sunday right you you you need to know exactly how much you need to get yes I do I cook fresh weekly yeah it's all I buy product fresh every single week based upon my orders so that's part of why I have the order window closing so I can calculate it know what I need to purchase there's not a lot of margin for error here otherwise you're gonna have to throw things the moment that there's an error now that further in I now have backup in the freezer I've portioned out pounds of each protein so if we have a shortage boom we can pull from the freezer before it turned into gotta go I'm running the store I'm gonna go get it I'll be back and then you know real quickly we realize okay well that takes an hour and so more efficiently now I have backup proteins of everything on stock all the time and now you're in a big commercial kitchen too you're not just doing this out of Boulder City anymore correct I'm now in my second commercial kitchen I started off at Slice Commissary on Pecos in Henderson and that was really great I loved it but it was the start of my company where I didn't own everything yet so I needed to rent I needed to even rent pots and pans and that was a commissary that provided everything you would need and not sheet pounds everything you can rent it all so I started there it was a smaller kitchen it was within that first year that I saw we were going to outgrow the size of the kitchen already and we were running into losing room in the freezer or fridge with the other companies that were working there also so I ended up moving us over to Vita kitchens on Cheyenne which is an old grocery store an old Albertsons so it's huge and there's multiple and many kitchens in there and the walk-in freezers are the size of a room or bigger and you can there's plenty of growth space there's yes there's there's a good amount I've seen I do have other companies in there two other meal prep companies are in there too and we're all friends we're all family we all give advice we talk like it's so cool to be that's part of like it's very inspirational to be around them because they've been there you know they're four they're six to eight years into their companies and one of themselves or anywhere from 12 to 1500 meals a week the other one sells anywhere from eight to a thousand so it I can see how much potential there is for me in there and I can even see that even if I get to 1500 I'm still in a home base yeah that's great to hear because that's not something you and I talked about one of the things we talk a lot about on this show is founders mentoring founders so it's great that you found people in your same industry and there's enough room for everybody even in the same kitchen to be successful that you're you're all helping each other out yes we do and we actually send people referrals we send each other referrals too because our companies have different niches so like mine is more so on the health fitness side and then some there's a more one of them is still fitness and then the other one is more lifestyle and just kind of learning healthier but still fun meals still some dairy stairs still some flour and so we all have different audiences so if I get the call and it makes more sense to send them that way I do and then when they get the calls for fitness competitors or doctors or people on specific plans they call me the customers call me and they say I called this person they sent me to you so it's almost it's every few weeks that I get a call that one of those companies sent someone to me and then I try to return the favor too that's fantastic so what else is different about running this business than what you've the kind of work you've done in the past what's different about it well before the personal training all of that I started off I did 10 years of serving in food restaurants and I was management so I I started running um I ran a restaurant called pit stop in bowler city and I worked there for 10 years and that employer bob had taught me so many things that I'm using in my company today he put me in charge of the Cisco orders he taught me how to do the banking he taught me how to count my inventory how to load how to pre-plan how to order extra in case they're out next week things like that I feel like I use all of that so it's very different now in the sense that I'm doing my own business and I really took all those years of restaurant experience with my nutrition coaching and my diet coaching or personal training and I put it all together to create real prep meal prep so I guess the main difference is that instead of somebody else in charge I'm now in charge and calling the shots and the ideas are mine and when my employees have ideas too I love to talk about them and implement them too we try all kinds of things all the time and all the time we're improving our techniques that's great it sounds like you had a really great mentor in the restaurant business who helped you and now you're mentoring your team yes to be successful as well so tell us about your team who's on your team where did you find them okay so I've gone through um I now have been probably up to about 10 employees over this time which I generally now have five at all times and then I have my call in employees I started off with a my first employee was the one that I started off at home with and he was an old friend from junior high I've always had a friendship with him over the years because I was adopted and he was an orphan in st. Jude's as a child and so when he went back his mother got custody of him back I kept in contact with him all these years will when I started like posting you know does anyone want to come help me he raised his hand and so he was a childhood friend of mine that I've kind of mentored over years now especially later on in life that we've been adults um but he started the company with me came in worked for me you know we we worked so hard between the two of us doing it all and he moved into the kitchen with me too and then from there I my best friend her daughter needed a job so and her daughter had started to go on the wrong path and so I said you know I'll I'll I'll give her a shot I've been on the wrong path before and I've had employers give me chances and I'm I'm let's take her let's see if we can turn her direction so I took her under my wing she's now been my longest term employee and she's my best one of my best employees and she has had a full turn around um which that's been an emotional journey too because I've watched her go from where we started to where she is now and I'm very proud of her um then from there another one was school connections I do um I did get some applications turned in from social media Facebook so one of my chefs is a Facebook hire and he's been he's a great employee too and basically from that it's basically mostly been people I know or word of mouth and then now yes I I also hired um two other guys off of Facebook my one of my drivers now contacted me off of Instagram as I post on there that I'm looking for employees so now my company is growing to where it's not just close people I know anymore it's now strangers and people I have to build trust with my company trust with coming in and carrying my product and representing so how is that how was that made you up your game as a leader to start working with folks that you don't already have a personal relationship with well when I worked at the restaurant like I said for the management um before I became a manager there I was uh I got turned into he nominated me to be the restaurant trainer so when I left pit stop I had trade every employee on that floor by the end of my 10 years so I was already used to taking a stranger and teaching them the way of how it's done here this and that learning to push them motivate them turn it into a game make it fun you know a lot of when I'm cooking I feel kind of like I'm in a video game so I do everything in a certain order I've got all my pans lined up I'm hitting this one I read my recipes hit them all one at once and I kind of if you can kind of program yourself into like this groove then you just you start to get a good feel for things so um it's it's made me grow working with new people I guess because I'm I'm a very shy person too so I kind of have to it's definitely been something I have to practice and work on so but I've done well and I did earn the position at that job and gave me the confidence to be able to do it with my own business it sounds like you're doing great it sounds like your team is doing great it sounds like you're helping them grow in the right direction to help your company grow in the right direction so so all right let's play a game okay all right this game is called this or that okay I'm going to ask you a series of questions I'm going to give you a this or a that when you hear the question just answer with whatever comes in what's the first thing that comes into your mind so it could be this or that or whatever comes into your mind we're not too formal about it here okay this or that this or that okay you ready sure all right sarah ramathan this or that your time begins now digital or analog digital dogs or cats dogs yankies or red socks yankies incorrect sweet or spicy not gonna lie sweet okay good to know halloween or thanksgiving I love to dress up halloween I've also win the contest three times in a row no we're gonna have to get some of those pictures for for b-roll for this east coast or west coast west sunrise or sunset sunset downtown or the strip the strip dress up or casual dress up instagram or tiktok instagram yeah I thought you were gonna say that yeah I tried tiktok but I just can't get the groove that's okay there'll be something new in another year yeah so we'll all get caught up with that all right you're so driven you're so focused to succeed and serve your clients but you weren't always that way you've been through a transformation yourself what what what can you tell us about that transformation and how you got to where you are today so my transformation started about six to seven years ago and I I weighed about 180 pounds and I knew that I was getting thick and I was my thickest and I was really wanting to lose 10 pounds because I had tried to lose weight before and I just failed within like the first week and and so I was surrounded by my sister and one of my friends at the time and they were eating vegan and so they kept talking to me about eating plant food and this and that and so I was like you know maybe I'll try like just a little bit and at the time of my life I didn't eat any vegetables at all I was a very picky eater I was very picky with textures I didn't like skins on things I was like I was the typical little kid that was like not going to touch that just because it looked funny not because it tasted bad but because I was I had like a phobia about foods and textures and so I was weird about vegetables um so I started practicing some of that plant life and my friend was blending his making blends and my sister too so I was like I could I could drink that I don't really want to eat it but I found that I could drink it so it started off in little stages of just trying to drink my vegetables and start to eat eat better then I started I bought this garage cell bike my son I think at the time was about four and he was just learning how to ride a bike so I was like maybe I'll just buy a garage cell bike and ride around town so I did I got like this 60 dollar bike up the street and and I started riding everywhere with him and next thing I knew I was like super motivated and I lost that 10 pounds and then I was like maybe I'll try to lose another 10 and maybe I'll try to lose another 10 and I got all the way up to between the 50 and 60 mark and then in that first year of my journey I went from riding the bike and I have a swimming background from high school and I swam for 15 years for the Boulder City team and so I was like oh well maybe I'll start swimming again and so I'm teaching my son swimming I'm putting him in swimming lessons so now mom's swimming with Drayden and I'm also cycling with him too and from there like I said I was serving tables at that time so I had customers that would come right in on their crazy bikes those skinny wheel tire ones and you're like what are these weirdos doing in those outfits you know you're like watching them you're like look at these guys and everybody's giggling at them and they know that they look silly they all know and and they started talking to me you know what are you doing because they started know that they saw that they saw from in that six months I lost that 60 pounds they were like what the heck is they started asking what am I doing I'm riding this garage cell bike blah blah and then they were like we'll rent you a bike let's go on a ride okay I went on this ride and I didn't know on these skinny tires I was so scared and I did one ride with them and I got hooked next thing I knew I was in the bike shop getting my own road bike and then I was buying Drayden a road bike too you know 10 miles turned into 20 miles turned into 30 miles my son at age six was riding his bike for 30 miles with no brakes at that point those that new community of friends that I had that were motivational people to me that were encouraging the fitness they were like Sarah you're cycling you're swimming you got one more thing to do and that's running and you should do a triathlon to finish out your one-year bang and I'm like you guys first off let me tell you I've had surgery on both Achilles tendons I don't run I don't like from here to that wall it's way too far it's gonna hurt so but the idea got planted and I'm kind of one of those people like if you turn the trigger on I'm gonna try so I started running I literally had to run street light to street light and I would have to stop because I would be in pain in my ankles crying sometimes because it was emotional and I just wanted to do one mile and I could not get my body to do it well I just kept trying street light to street light to street light and the next thing I knew I was running one mile then I started joining the kids team at my son's elementary school where they do a running program before school with the children they earn tokens every time they do a lap that's a stamp thing and then when they get 100 then when they get whatever however many miles they earn tokens so it was the school that I grew up in and with my surgery I actually had doctor's notes that excluded me from running in PE so I actually had memories of being the timer for the mile runs and so it was very emotional for me as an adult to be back on that field now I'm trying to run and I'm doing it and then I built up to one mile two miles five miles I did my first 10 mile run once and then so I trained about three months that I had that notice for that triathlon that my group threw me in I trained so hard and I got my miles up my speed up and I did that first race and it was the the anniversary of my one year of my fitness journey and I landed third place on the podium and I still I still have those feelings like I can't believe that happened and that was really that was kind of the moment that I I guess I was changed inside to realize that I had a knack for this I had it was the time that was when I changed my career path my direction I saw how many people I was inspiring people were writing me for personal training now they that was like that was encouraged too by the people that were surrounded by me watched me do my journey and their belief in me that I could inspire other people and so finishing that year that way was definitely in that moment that that that feeling of attention of that that pride and that was the moment I guess I my passion turned where I was like I want to help people and I want to train people I want to teach people how to transform themselves too and you know that it I just went that direction I didn't there wasn't a plan there wasn't a I'm gonna lose weight I'm gonna become a trainer I'm gonna do this it was I was just along for the ride but I just kept doing the work one step at a time yeah for what sounds like an amazing year and I think uh I think the community here is better off for you having done that thank you so all right where do you want to take real prep meal prep what's the goal with your company is there one so there is many goals some of them are just short term getting to certain meal counts you know right now you know hitting those 500s as we've been doing great now you know like I said knowing the potential of the companies that are beside me and cheering me to they're at 800 1500 so I can see that if they can do it I can do it too and I just have to continue to find the people that are in in need what I have and they so the goal for my company really is to help as many people as I can and one by that is not just athletes not just my awesome Olympians and my pro fighters and these guys that are super cool it's the heart behind the company the made with love quote for my company is the passion to help people with their life journeys and struggles whether it be addictions or food addictions or you know drugs or being overweight diabetes all of the hell I have I have customers with celiac disease people with allergies that are I mean list of endless allergies and so my company being that we accommodate all of those needs I can help those people they I constantly get calls of people calling me that you know they have these health issues my mom my grandma my it could be them or they're calling for someone else to ask about my food and so that's the passion behind it is being able to help those people and I've had people like almost in tears telling me you know I can't find anywhere that I can eat safely and I have these restrictions I can't eat anywhere and I'm like you can eat here you can and they know immediately right away when they start digesting my food that there's no gimmicks because they're not going to get the reactions they're not going to get inflammation their their pain will start to lower as their information lowers from my food their their cholesterol I had one guy call me within a couple of months he was down 300 on his cholesterol and and he was only eating two meals a day you know and five times a week not seven days a week so even the small changes have created large changes internally for some of my clients and like now I have more multiple diabetics and they you know we accommodate to their needs their low carbs their vegetables only or half the carb that comes with my meal will even do that if they you know we will adjust each meal to customize it for each person and their needs whether it's a fitness goal or a diet goal or a health goal or a doctor's warning goal those are my most emotional yeah I've certainly seen you've had amazing results with athletes and competitors and that kind of thing but I think the folks you're talking about are really the impact you've had with your clients and in the community is is the results you you're having people with just improving their health yeah yes you know I I did start with the fitness community because that's what I knew and that's what I was doing and those were the connections I had as I got further in I started working with firefighters and policemen and then next thing I knew they were sending me doctors and I and then I now I have four doctors on board that I cook for them their offices and their clients and then I have nutritionists that are writing the meal plans for these people for their health needs or fitness goals and I cook like I said they send them to me on spreadsheets and I do all the math and I create their meal plans to exactly what that nutritionist wrote or that doctor has written so in a sense when I'm working with them this is the moment where food becomes medicine and this is where the moment where we're really helping somebody and we're changing someone's life I have a family of three diabetics mom dad and daughter and they've been ordering for me now for over a year and they order 40 meals a week for the three of them and they they order weekly they call me they're like I can't believe how much results we've had we're actually losing weight we're we all feel better none of us are getting spikes in our you know they it's made it where they can live again and they don't understand how to cook their food that way or how to do it or they don't have the patience or the time I think it's a combination of all for that family but it can be life changing for these guys is who need the help or don't have the time but they have dietary needs and that they have to follow or they're in trouble you know and not in trouble with anybody but in trouble internally and some of these guys they're facing you know being told that you know they've got if they don't stop this way of living that they're gonna go downhill real quickly and they some I have customers that call me in such fear and then it's really cool because it's it's weeks when they call me telling me that they're feeling better it's two two weeks sometimes the first week they call me already ecstatic that they can't believe it I think the results speak for themselves with everyone who your clients from you know the competitors all the way right to the folks with the health issues that that really need you and you're delivering for them right away yes so who is someone you admire as a leader or in business I look up to a lot of people I have a lot of mentors now that is something that I seek in friendships and in business partners I have a I have a list so I I don't know if I want to say one name because then I'm leaving out the other 10 but I do feel there is one that really stands out to me and his name is Dana and he is Jay Cutler's manager and Jay Cutler is a huge phenomenon in the Olympia and has a great big name and if you know anything about the industry everybody knows who Jay Cutler is I even know who Jay Cutler is yeah and so I got a hold of Dana after I did Jay's first show and I told him all about my products and since then he's kind of been a mentor for me if I have a business struggle I talked about it he gives me ideas he tells me about his adventures same thing when I have you know Iris Kyle from the powerhouse she's another 10 times Olympia and best in the world and she gives me business advice of what she's learned over the years being a woman in business and I have multiple I I don't even know where to start with the list of people that have supported me and pushed me and given me the ideas of who to pursue and what connections and when somebody gets on board of me they see my enthusiasm they feel it too they try the food they get the results and then that person becomes a believer and they start they send me to who they know or isn't that and you know I I definitely have a lot of good people in my court now and you know like you mentioned about the partnerships I'm up to 21 partnerships now seven different gyms doctors you know different agencies even even got into a best western so you know it's been and all of those guys are mentors to me they all see my passion my drive and for some reason it makes them want to help me you know I don't always ask them like hey can you give me advice but more so they they're attracted to that they these are successful people that are attracted to people who are trying to get there too and they see that so I feel like I have a lot a lot of support from very good people that's really great how have your views on leading a team changed after meeting some of these mentors and what you've learned from them one of the biggest advice is I think that I had to kind of transfer form starting with a personable employee time and you know they kind of have told me you know I've got a lead away from hiring friends or family or this or that and that you know that that'll be a struggle sometimes you know they think it's okay to be late or they you know just just they get a little more flexible because they're your friend so I do see that and that that has been something I've had to work on is kind of changing that of like I'm your employer I'm not your friend even though I still want to be your friend you know like I'm like okay so I'm like I have to find this fine balance of like listen I love you and I care about you but I also have to like reprimand you if I need to I have to also you know set you straight if we're you know if you're doing something multiple times after being told not you know then so there's all of that that's been that's been one of the biggest things that I think I'm working on now is really separating the line of like you know when we're in here we're all business and that's it you know no outside know this know that we're strict business if you need to talk to me outside of course I'll take I'll talk you know but that's been interesting it's a hard lesson for a lot of leaders to learn yeah so you're not alone in that yeah it's uh it's been working with employees and the staff and getting them to stay or long term that's been definitely one of the hardest challenges is getting the staff problem a lot of a lot of companies are having right now what was one of the best mistakes you've ever made and what did you learn from it hmm best mistakes I ever made that's a hard one I feel like they're all there I just can't think of it but let me try well best mistake not when I'm drawing a blank it's like I know there's one in there I just think of it at the moment we'll come back to that before we're done you'll probably think of something yeah I'll try so maybe this will help so you're having a lot of success right now you've been through a huge transformation over the last few years but what keeps you up at night what are the what are the really significant challenges with your company and in your life that you're thinking about staff staff yeah staff is usually you know are they all going to show up in the morning do I need to have my backup person on call you know sometimes they'll give me a little hints like in the week like oh like they'll tell me something weird happened and I'm like oh that might be the sign that they're gonna call out on Sunday and so I'll usually kind of go ahead and get someone in line for that mostly it's it's staffing complications that will stress me at nighttime is you know is everyone gonna show up if I have like my biggest week come in or a big order week come in then it's then I'm gonna have that like okay everybody needs to show up on time we can't be behind schedule we gotta get those orders out I want to be on time for my deliveries all these things are so important to me where for the staff you know they they push and they try to make those timelines but it's it's not the same type of it's it's my baby not there yeah it's one of the things about having a business is no one's ever going to care about it as much as you care about it and that's just a reality that every entrepreneur has to come to grips with yeah and they don't realize like you know if they're one hour late or three hours late how much of an impact that has on the business how much it sets back the company to get our meals out on time by two o'clock in the afternoon and it's a big setback if somebody's missing for two or three hours you know and you're a little bit of a planner so I bet that bothers you a little bit it does it's a hard one I have a good attitude so I I do keep you know generate when they come through the door I'm not mean or anything I'm just like hey come on let's get going like let's get on the floor let's go and then from there it's like we all go into overdrive to get speed us up but uh yeah that's definitely I think that's always that's always the is everyone gonna be on time like that sometimes goes on my mind before I go to bed is there any other area you feel like you need help with in the business I have definitely had to learn to delegate out my jobs because it started off as a one man show and then the company outgrew me and it keeps doing that so I keep putting people in new positions new jobs new things and then it grows more and then I'm like uh-oh now I'm on overdrive and burning myself out again I've got to hire someone else out now for this job I'm doing and some a lot of these are outside jobs I do all of my design work all my banners I designed my logo I design every billboard every just every advertisement that you've ever seen I sit there and I design it for hours on canva and so then I you know I I constantly have to remind myself to step back and that I have to have breaks and I can't work seven days a week 24 hours a day which I can easily do if I don't check myself um so that's been now I've been starting to hire people outside of the kitchen now to do my outside jobs such as like I said the spreadsheet building the template for that um I now just hired a social media manager she's been working that count for a few weeks now and we've been practicing and connected all my counts and she's doing all the things watching my insights and the days and the things and she starts talking about it I'm like this is a whole nother language I had no idea and she's like this is the day you get your traction this is when we post I'm like you know what that's you you've got this and so she's now working on that side which is going really well and we're uh that that's a big job I work social media a lot it definitely tires me it drains me yeah I think that's that's the way it is for a lot of us so yeah I'm so how do you stay calm how do you stay centered when you're under stress or feeling a little anxiety one way that I calm especially after the tornado kitchen days is I go home and I force myself to lay down even though I still want to spin and go and go and go I force myself to lay down in the dark for an hour or two just lay there um you know otherwise it it affects my health and this last year you know I was overworking on overdrive too much and I you know had some health scares with the doctor my my thyroid crash and I had to be put on thyroid medication and my cortisol and drainals were through the roof which made it impossible for me to lose weight when I would keep trying and because my hormones were off so that was the first thing the doctor was like you have to cut back somewhere you have to you need to lay down you have to detox you got to come down from all of this and and I was like okay okay they're like otherwise you're just gonna it's just gonna get worse so for you know for the past three months that has been a blessing in disguise is um being told that from the doctor and has forced me to take the step backs that I needed so I can propel the company such as even now I don't stay all day in the kitchen anymore I set myself my staff up and I leave them to cook I work the whole first round of meals with them on Mondays and I leave at 11 they finish out till 2 they load the cars they go these little things have kind of made a big difference and now my health is back to taking those moves so I see now too how overworking and trying to do it all by myself is is detrimental to my health and my mentality and I'm trying to help other people and I can't do that if I'm not functioning properly I think that's great advice because especially in the entrepreneurial world and I know I find myself doing this as well is when the stress starts to hit the answer the answer we come up with is often I gotta do more I gotta find a way to do more and I think your advice is great for entrepreneurs or leaders who are in high stress environments or have a lot of plates spinning a lot of things going on is to take a minute to take you know 20 minutes an hour whatever whatever you need and to get just to try to clear your mind a little bit I think it's fantastic advice because for entrepreneurs especially it's it's often the opposite is the solution we land on and I lay there until my head stops spinning sometimes it's 30 minutes sometimes it's three hours and I will just spin and spin and spin from the day and then the other thing I do is I go to the gym that's my other stress relief I kind of had a feeling that was in your yeah so that's another one I I do go to the gym I stretch I do my cardio I do my lift my weightlifting and then I do yoga sometimes too if I'm really having a day and I need to hear the sounds and the darkness and the whole thing like sometimes I need the extra so I kind of just I just do those there I have a few of those me things and I make sure that I do them because when I stop doing them then I don't become happy and then my goals start to fall down and then like I said I can't help anyone when I'm not being my best self so I have to remember to love me first and that's hard because I love everyone else so much that I will toss me to the side and so I've learned that like I said a couple times now in this business that I have to remember that I have to be up on the top of the list too and that that's been definitely eye opening for my health and then also to lead by example that's great advice so what is coming up for real prep meal prep and for Sarah what what are you excited about that's coming up so we have a couple events coming up we love to do events so that's what I do sometimes to propel the business especially if I have a slowdown in growth I'll put myself out there I'll go do the farmers market I know you do yeah so and you know it might not be my favorite thing to do but it helps grow the cells it helps make connections it helps me really connect with the normal people walking around that are looking for this I don't know they're looking for it or they see it and they're like oh wow you know they get inspired just by walking by that's been I'm always seeking events or opportunity so I don't done events at the doctor's offices now I've done them at drip bar I've done I'm at torture gym ground opening elevation you know I go to all the ground openings I go to any gyms that want to bring it to their members I give their members you know a code for they can if they're a member of that it's a perk for the gym now that they have a meal prep company and those are we oh then I do shows too so coming up we're about to do a best damn CrossFit they do a competition every year and we this will be our third year doing it and we go to it and we put up the big tent because it's an outdoor event and all the competitors they're throwing all their CrossFit weights and then we're giving the samples and then when they're done eating they come over like monsters and I'm like I got the microwave don't worry and a microwave and meals for all these guys and so they won't eat until towards the end I've learned now doing it twice in a row it's about I come now with that chest ready because when they're done they're coming for the meals and we do that those are fun and then I have a snap fitness one coming up as well and I have Steve Carr coming up which is another big body building show and I have the Samson show and Cutler they are all coming up boom boom boom real shortly here all right well we'll get we'll get stuff linked up so people can find out where they can come and see you if they if they want to see you and taste some of what you what you've cooked so all right I have a couple more questions for you but I'd like to take care of the the administrative stuff before we get into the last couple questions so is there anything else we should know about Sarah Ramthon and real prep meal prep I think you covered most of the most of the things I think we covered a lot so yeah I don't think I don't feel like I have anything inside me that I was wishing you okay well I always want to give you a chance so where can everyone find real prep meal prep where can they find you so the the location that we're at is on Cheyenne 1030 Cheyenne and we're centered behind the reef business in front of us they're on the backside then generally I'm online so through my Instagram real prep meal prep or Facebook real prep meal prep is how many new customers will contact me and my number every every way to contact me is on my website as well real prep meal prep net and we most of us people call honestly I think I get more phone calls than I do emails which I prefer anyways usually if I get email I return it with a call because I like to give the person ability I like to show someone that my company cares for them you know though right mean I have this and I have that and I'm like this is a phone call I'm not going to write this person back there's no way and it sounds like it sounds like something needs a little personal touch to make sure you're really serving them mm-hmm yeah I like to talk to them I like to hear their stories and I love when they call me back too in a week or two and they're like oh my gosh I'm dropping weight now and they couldn't lose weight before and you know all of the things it's very personable and I think the phone calls I always take the phone calls like those are my favorite that's great what is someone who is someone or what is something you're grateful for definitely my son my son he he's my biggest inspiration he changed my life and he saved my life and I have a commitment and promise that I made to him and that is behind that is my own personal background and his experiences and my experiences that had led me into changing my life and turning it around and wanting to help other people instead of being destructive as I before these years and my son I lived in a more destructive life and I was an angry child with my adoption so my biggest inspiration is my son and changing the patterns that I grew up in as a child and the things that I went through and making sure that I make some of those things right in my heart for him so I would say Drayden is my biggest motivation I could tell that when we look at your Instagram we can see how much how big a part of your life he is and how big a part of his life you are and how much fun you guys are having together and you've even got him helping out with the business and he just always seems so excited to to be involved with what you're doing so yeah he's he's definitely like my mini me we do everything we we work out together like I said we did the swimming the cycling if he does a sport I join it I don't even always know what I'm doing but but I try and he loves it and I coach him even if I don't really know I'll read the rules of the sport and I'll teach him the stuff that he needs to know and um yes he I did bring him into the business this summer he turned 13 years old and the Southern Nevada Health District allows you to work your immediate family at the age of 13 in the kitchen and although he's not allowed to touch the ovens but he can do the prep work he comes so for the summer he worked the Sunday and Mondays and he would come in and he would peel potatoes is the first job I started teaching him then I bought him these cutting gloves that have metal in them so you can't cut through the glove then I started teaching him how to chop the potatoes and I got the glove so if his knife slips it's not going to go right through his hand and so we made it very safe for him to learn how to chop hard potatoes that for his little size he could be put in his whole body because the mama can't get it through you know and I'm like okay like so and then I've taught him how to kind of put the oomph in there and now he's cutting all his potatoes but these yams that we're working with some of them are they're big and they're hard and so from there he um then he learned how to do the rice so he starts the jasmine rice the brown rice he knows how to pour it on the pans now safely and he one of his favorite things and I think it is part of um I'm a very intricate person and I get very dialed in if I'm focused on something like if when I'm even when if I'm cutting an onion it's like very um what was the word the very oh I can't think of the word right now but it's very oh it's right there so when I it's peaceful like it's I feel very like in the zone so I notice that with him too he likes to trim the sirloin I don't know why but he has he gets joy out of getting all the fat off and then cutting it into perfect cubes and so every time we come on he's like mom can I please chop the sirloin so he gets his potatoes he so now it makes him faster at that because I'm like well you have to get to it before Edgar gets to it so now he races there gets the potatoes da da da da so now he's like the super efficient worker he's super cool to watch on the floor because he's everywhere and he's like just this little mini beast on the floor and he chops the sirloin and then and then on Mondays I started bringing him in he was already familiar with weighing food on scales because I've been doing that for years for myself so and he used to help me when he was little too he would sit there and weigh my meats with me and we would do it together and we would you know we started making him mini meals and whatnot and um that's how so when I put him in the company he was weighing the meats with us he was you know mixing the vegetables and he was preparing the meals too and I didn't expect to go that far but he was really loving it all summer and I saw a whole change in his personality his manners his motivation his his confidence in himself really changed this summer and I really think it was work involved it's amazing what a little a little success and a little a little accomplishment can do yeah to turn the amount of responsibility that I can see he now he's more like I got this you know versus kind of like quiet and shy he's more confident excellent what advice would you give to future leaders especially young women who are starting or thinking about starting a business my advice to give to anybody is if you have a passion inside of you that you know is something you want to do and pursue and you don't care what it takes to get there is to do it even if you don't have the money you start small you start mini you start at home you know you you don't have you don't have to have the full plan in place you have to have the footsteps in place one step after another so I think my biggest advice would be if you have a passion a niche for something that you really want to do do it and don't be afraid and then every time there's an opportunity you jump on it it's scary you know I take risks all the time I don't always know if it's going to work I invest in things you may or may not come back but I I think somewhere in the big picture it comes back but you know that's that's the biggest thing is um the opportunity seek opportunity it does not come to you it may sometimes you know someone might notice you and pick you up and come and say you know we want to do this or do that or highlight your company okay you know I've had a couple of instances like that but a lot of them I have seek myself I have pursued those relationships I I reached out to Iris Kyle I walked up to her at the show and said please let me feed you I promise you I know what I'm doing and she's looking at me let me prove it to you so she did she said okay all right like you know she asked me all the questions I told her I could do it and I did it and now I've been feeding her going on two years and her clients at her gym you know same thing with all of those guys I've had to prove myself to them so when you believe so strongly in something even if you're afraid to walk up and tell someone you still just do it I even if you're shaking even if you're crying inside because you're panicking like just do it and that's that has been the biggest growth for me through this company is being brave you know even on the way to this talk I was in the car I had to self talk to myself I had to prepare myself emotionally you know it's scary and it's there's a lot of facing your fears when it comes to believing in your product and chasing it well you've been fabulous today thank you thank you for being here I I knew you were nervous about this because we talked but I would never know you were nervous about this watching you on camera here today and I hope we get to see more of you on camera and and have you do more speaking but I want to thank you for being here today this has been wonderful so much so much insight for us thank you for having me I also want to thank litigation discovery group for allowing us to use part of their space as our studio today and thank all of you for watching the leader's mindset whatever you're going to go do today make sure you have an impact

Speedrunning is kind of like the Olympics of video games, if every two years, some country discovered an entirely new method of skating that cut the world record in half and inexplicably turned the Romanian judge into a cone. Woo! USA! USA! In true American fashion, we may not have the best medals, but we do have a lot of them. Most of the time, if a kid wants to play a game instead of doing their homework, we say, it's just a game, it's not important, you need to prepare for the real world. But every two years, we grab those same kids and make them watch a bunch of people play games really, really well and say, look what you can do with hard work and determination. Those people are champions! That really could be said for masters of any past time. We love to see human beings achieving new heights, whether it's bobsledding faster than anybody has ever bobsledded before, or folding a paper crane that's smaller than any that has ever been folded. It's so tiny! However, there is a pretty substantial bias in our culture for only certain sports and games being worthy of hours of practice. We pay professional football stars millions of dollars every year without batting an eye, but we sort of snicker at people who master other sports that require just as much dedication and skill, like table tennis or curling. But maybe we're wrong about that. Maybe excellence is worth pursuing in any context, whether it's with skis or with a paintbrush or, as I'm about to argue, with video games. In 1994, a few years after the computer game Doom came out, a few players started to wonder just what the absolute limits of the game were. Could you beat Doom, a first person shooter, without any weapons or without hurting any monsters? How quickly could you beat it? A website named CompeteN, linked below, was created to host videos of people playing Doom in all sorts of weird ways. It also had a series of leaderboards so that people could compete for the fastest times in all sorts of crazy categories. All monsters killed, no monsters killed, no armor, no weapons, no damage taken. You had to abide by the rules of each category, but if you found a way to break the game's physics or to skip a large part of a level in the way that the programmers hadn't thought of, so much the better. Anything to get from the loading screen to the end credits a half second faster than anybody else. And so, speedrunning was born. Today, there are recorded videos of thousands of different video game speedrun world records, each of which contains jaw-dropping physical dexterity and execution. But that's not what really gets me hyped. Firstly, I love collaborative research. Communities will grow around particularly popular or interesting games, and then will work together to comb through them in order to find ways to shave seconds off the completion time. The methods that they use to discover new shortcuts range from looking at the original programming of the game to see how memory values are stored in a cartridge, to stacking a bunch of crates in a corner and seeing if you can jump over a wall. And all these gamers are technically competing to complete the game faster than each other, but they still collaborate and share their discoveries whenever they're found. For them, the enemy isn't the other speedrunners, it's the clock. How's that for sportsmanship? When's the last time you saw Olympic figure skaters giving each other tips? Second, all those hours of community research give speedrunners loopholes that allow them to break those virtual worlds and then rebuild them as they see fit, rarely in a way that the programmer's intended. You want me to lose all my items and then quest to get them back? How about I just skip the part of the game where that happens and keep all my stuff? You want me to race on the track? How about not? I love to see games broken like this, partially because it's just fun to watch, but also because it's really a triumph of creative thinking. Usually when you play a video game, you're at the mercy of the programmers in a rigidly defined world where you do this, then that, and then the other thing, and then you win. But, oh man, if you thought that Super Mario World was a game about jumping on goombas and moving right, finally, for some bizarre reason, speedrunners have become huge players in charity fundraising. For example, there are bi-annual marathons called Awesome Games Done Quick, where for a solid week, there is always an agile master with a controller on a couch somewhere streaming video as they absolutely decimate a game. They ask for donations for everything from extra levels to cool tricks to playing parts of the game blindfolded, and all that money goes to charity. To date, they've raised over $2 million dollars for everything from cancer research to disaster relief. Is that a worthwhile activity? Yeah, I think so. It's easy to say that regardless of the skill and creativity of speedrunners, that at the end of the day, they're just playing video games. But it's also easy to say that Olympians are just skiing and skating and losing. I think that we really ought to encourage people to aspire to that sort of mastery and excellence. Also, I'm pretty sure that some of those speedrunning guys are robots disguised as humans, and if I know one thing, it's don't piss off the robots. Is speedrunning as compelling as the Olympics? Is it just as impressive to watch somebody beat Halo really fast as it is to watch them ski down a hill really fast? Is excellence worth pursuing in any context? Leave comments, let me know what you think. Thank you for watching. Don't forget to blah blah subscribe, blah share, and I'll see you next week.

Hello, it's time to go for today's mini lecture. And let me close off a couple of these things here, which I don't need. So I was grading some of the programs from earlier. Okay. So here we have an array of numbers and this is using a different form of initialization. Instead of saying we have a new array, we can give the numbers that we want in braces or we went over that yesterday. That's correct. Now let's say I want to print that out and I say system dot print line of numbers. And let's compile that and run it. And well that's not very enlightening. It is to some extent the square bracket means that this is an array. It means it's an int. And this at means this is its location in memory, which is nice to know, but not tremendously useful. If we want to see what's actually in the array, we need to run a loop and print out all the individual items. And I'm going to copy and paste this copy that already from the book. And I'm going to have to reinvent everything here. Okay, I've seen this a lot in some of the programs that I've been grading people have their methods right next to each other with no space in between. If you put one blank line in there, it makes things a lot more readable. And so that's what I would strongly suggest that you all do. By the way, this is one of the things that's in the extra exercises book, which the full book sort of glosses over is how do you pass an array. You can put numbers to a method. And the answer is the parameter for an array, you have to tell what data type it is. And then tell that it's an array by using the square brackets, and then give it some name and the book uses a which I'm not particularly happy with, but let's go with what the book has. What they'll then do is they will print a colon brace, excuse me. The first element of the array. Then starting at element number one up through the length of the array a dot length gives us how many items are in the array. And then we'll go I plus plus we'll print out a comma and a space. And then that element. And when we're done with the loop, we print a closing brace, which means we now have to call this method. We call print array. It says okay, you're going to have to give me an integer array. And well it says so happens I have an integer array right here. And numbers is going to be passed in as the value for a, and that should work rather nicely. And in fact if I run it. There I get my 1066 4711. A note about length here. If I have a string, and I want to find its length, I use the length method. So for strings, length is in method. I need the parentheses there and it gives me a nine. If I have an integer array. Numbers and let's put in. I say numbers dot length. So parentheses length is a property of the array. And this is a little bit of a contradiction. I won't say it's contradiction. It's an inconsistency. And it just bugs the heck out of me and I keep getting it mixed up all the time so I will not blame you if you get it mixed up sometime during your programming career. And numbers dot length gives me four. For strings, it's a method. The parentheses for arrays. It's a property. You don't use the parentheses. Don't blame me. I didn't make the decision. I'm just reporting it. Now the next thing the book talks about is copying arrays. So let's go here and let's save this as copying arrays dot Java. And this is something that's really important to understand. And this is what's going to be what happens when you copy an array to another variable. Does it copy the individual items or just the reference. And this is the thing that we better talk about right now. Things like int, boolean, char and double are what are called primitive values. If you look at the memory diagram. And I'm not sure if I can find one here quickly. Let's see if they have anything here. Okay, yeah, let's go here to variables, memory diagrams. So when I have a is assigned three and B is assigned five, the value is directly tied to the symbol for it. But with arrays, it's different. When we have an array, the name of the variable is a reference to some area of memory where we will find the data. So the data is not in the same place as the variable, like it is with primitives. String array, and any objects, which we will get too much later, are reference values. So this is incredibly important to understand. And I'm going to keep a guess of our column change the name of this copying arrays. So let's say I have here integer array. Copy becomes a numbers, and I assign this. And I do a print array of copy. I should get the same thing twice. And indeed, that's exactly what happens. However, let's look at the memory diagram for this sort of thing. Well, if I had a new double array of length three and a and I said B becomes a a and B because they are references, I now have two references to the same area of memory. In fact, I can prove this, by the way. Yeah, that's not going to work. And sure enough, they are both referring to the same area of memory. Because if I do something like this, if I say copy sub zero becomes a 999. And now I say system dot out dot is the print array of numbers. I will not get 1066 4711. Instead I'll get 99966 4711. Why, because I have a copy of the reference. They're both referring to the exact same area of memory. So when I change one of their content contents of that area of memory is immediately reflected in the other variable. This also is the case, by the way, when you pass an array to a method, you get a copy of the reference, not a copy of all the data items. Now what if I wanted a true copy of them so that they are truly a separate set of numbers. Here's one way to do it. I can say true. Let's call it separate copy. I'm going to make a new integer array. That's exactly the same length as numbers. And then I'm going to say for int I is zero, I less than numbers dot length, I plus plus. I'll take separate copy. Sub I becomes numbers sub I. What I have now done is I've taken this numbers of I and I've put it into a different area. In fact, if we do this, let's print this out to prove that I'm not just kidding you, because I created a brand new array in here in line 33 separate copy is not going to have the same reference as numbers will. And indeed, these are not the same reference anymore. That's great. So now if I say separate copy sub one becomes 888. If I now say, let's do a print array numbers. And that should give me the 999664711. And if I try printing array of separate copy. I'll get 9998884711. I keep hitting the print screen button for some reason, I don't know why. So this is a way to make a separate copy. You build a brand new array, and then take the numbers from the elements from the original array one at a time, and put them into this new area of memory. And sure enough numbers and separate are now different from one another. Let's make this a little bit more readable. Here's. There we go. Now everything is labeled nicely. So that's something you need to know. Again, arrays are reference values. They're not primitives. Now this means that when we pass something an array to a method, we can change the contents of the array. I'm going a little bit into what the extra book has at this point. So we're going to do here is we're going to pass an array to a method. And change the arrays values inside that method. So let's go here and we're going to say public static void cube elements. And we're going to have an integer array of data. Again, I can call it anything I want. They called it a I'm going to call it data. So what we're going to do is we're going to say for and I is zero I less than data dot length I plus plus. This is the nice thing about length I don't have to know how long the array is if I just go up to data dot length that guarantees that I'm going to hit all of the elements in the array. I can say data sub I becomes data sub I times data sub I times data. I think to return here, by the way, do this raise that look there. And now what I'm going to say here is I'm going to say, cube the elements in numbers, and then I'll print array numbers. Let me put a comment in here to explain what's what's going on here. Because we pass a reference. To the array. As our parameter, any changes made to the contents of the array are reflected in the original array. Some of you may be remembering this thing about call by value when I said that you always get a copy and you can never affect the original. And you may be thinking, well, this, this just isn't true. The explanation for it is really long. I think I need to write it up at some point as a PDF for y'all. All I'll say is call by value is still working. We're not changing the reference. We're changing the thing it's referring to. So I can't change the original thing. I can't change the original reference. The reference is to some area out in memory, and I can change that area of memory as much as I want. You might be thinking, well, gosh, that's a little bit dangerous, isn't it, because you're taking your original and all of a sudden your original data is gone forever. Yeah, that's an interesting thing to note. One of the drawbacks of using references is that because you have a reference to the original and numbers is a reference to these numbers in memory, and data is going to be another reference to this exact same place. So a change to one is a change to the other one. That's the bad news. The good news is all I'm passing is a reference. Today I had a hundred numbers in my array. Instead of having to pass a copy of all hundred numbers, I'm passing one reference, which is like four bytes. And again, back in the day when Java was invented and memory was at a premium, copying a thousand eight byte or a thousand four byte integers, that's four thousand bytes, that's a lot of memory. Copying one four byte reference, that's like free. Now some people again are not happy with the idea that changes to one make changes to the original. They would rather say, you know what, we're not back in 1995 anymore. Now we have more memory. What I'd like to do is I'd like to take this array here numbers and get back a new array and just not fool around with the original so that the original doesn't get touched. And I'll show you how that works. Let's call this return new array dot Java. So we're going to pass an array method. Create a brand new array with the results of our computation. And then return that as a new array, leaving the original. Which was our parameter untouched. And let's call this return new array. We'll call this new cubes. We're still going to get an integer array. But now instead of returned having no return value, we're going to give back a new array of integers. Parameter is an array of integers. And the return value will be a new different. What we're now going to do is we're going to create an array called result. And it's going to be a new integer array that's exactly the same length as our original array. Because we made a new integer array, this result, and this data are not in the same place in memory there and to totally different places. So any changes I make to result will leave data totally unaffected. I'm still going to take that from the data array, each element and cube it and then I'm going to put it into my result array. And then I'll return the result. Now, because I am returning a result. What I have to do here is I have to say let's make an integer array called cubed elements. And that's going to be the new cubes of numbers. So we're going to take the numbers array, we're going to give it to new cubes, it'll return us a new array of integers which goes into there. And we can print cube numbers, cubed elements. Let's call it cube numbers. That's a better name. We can see that our original array is untouched. Why, because we never put data on the left hand side of an assignment. And then the question comes up, okay, which way is better. Is it better to change an array in place, like we did here, without returning a new copy. Or is it better to create a brand new array and leave the original untouched. This is simply my opinion. Okay, this is not a law. This is not a guideline. This is my opinion and my preference is to always return a new array and don't touch the original. You still have to know about how to change something in place because that may come up on a test or it may come up during an assignment. So you want to know about both techniques. The question is, well, when would you ever use this one because, you know, it can screw up your original rate. The answer is on your regular desktop computer probably not a big deal. But there may be places like you're writing something for a microcontroller where you really do have limited memory. And in that case, you will want to do, okay, I'm going to, I'll eat the cost of wiping out my original array rather than copy rather than making a brand new array in order to save memory. So it depends on the situation, but 99% of the time, you are not going to be bound to buy limited memory. And so, again, this is just my preference. It's not a rule that you are required to follow. My strong recommendation is that you write your methods so that they return new arrays, leaving the originals untouched. I had to pause the recording there. I was deciding whether it was going to be confession time and go into a lot more detail about when I do and when I don't make copies, but that would take us far away from the topic at hand, which is arrays. So I'm not going to get into that. There is something though that I do want to get into. And let's go here and let's grab our template. And let's save this as let's say array product. And for this program is given an array of integers. I mean, they could use double as well there. Right a method that returns the product of all the elements in the array. So we're going to have our integer numbers and we're going to do our typical. Should I do the sum of the product I'll do the product what the heck. And the way I can do this is I can say okay my integer result start at one not zero because I started zero and I do multiplication things are not going to go well. So again for index I can use index or I zero index less than data dot length index plus plus product becomes product times data sub index. Hello, I called it result. Alright, so how about being consistent. And then I can have here, our integer product becomes get product of numbers. I'm going to set up 106 647 and 11 because I can't figure out my well it doesn't matter if I'll get and then system that out about print f product of the elements is percent D. Period percent and product. Oh, lovely. Okay. Absolutely this is one thing you'll may have noticed is that when you're running in genie or most integrated development environments. blank lines tend to accumulate towards the bottom of the source file, and you want to get rid of them you don't want to have a source file it has 50 blank lines at the bottom that's just really annoying. compile that. And let's run it. And 3412, you know what for a comma in there. That makes me feel better. And let's check that to make sure that's right by the way, 10 times 66 times 47 times 11. If 341220 cool it worked. Now you may have noticed that the index the only reason I'm using it is because I need to get the items from the array. The index itself is not part of the I'm not using index to do anything special. There's a way to do something that will make this a little bit more compact. Let's call this array product to that Java. And let's see what does the book call it I want to make sure I'm using the same as a book they enhanced for loop. Thank you. What I can say is for each integer item. In my data array. And this variable can be anything I could call it value I could call it be I could call it X, but for each item in the data array result becomes result times item. You give a variable data type which has to be the same data type as your array. You're able to hold each item one at a time, and then give the name of the array. And this is a compact way Java will go through each element in the data array one at a time. Again, I don't need the index for anything. So why should I use it. If I compile this and how about renaming it properly. It still works out great. So this is very convenient. This is the enhanced for loop. Now, if you do need the index for something, then you have, you can't use the. I won't say you can't use it, then you are better off not using the enhanced for loop. What would be an example of that. We want to calculate the weighted sum of a list of integers. For example, if the array is five, seven, 12. The sum will be five times one plus seven times two plus 12 times three. Essentially what we're doing is we're giving each number the weight by its position, starting counting at one instead of zero. All this weighted sum. And save it as weighted some Java. All right, in this case we're going to have an int sum which starts off at zero. And then we're going to have to say for indexes zero index less than data dot length index plus plus. We're going to say some becomes some plus data sub index times index plus one. Because remember when index is zero, we don't want to multiply by zero, we want to multiply by one. This method calculates the weighted sum by adding each item times its position in the array, starting at one. This method requires the index as part of the calculation. So using the enhanced for loop, which doesn't give us an index would be not a great idea. I could still do it, but it would be really ugly. One example where an enhanced for loop, I can't easily use it because the index is part of the calculation. And by the way, let's, well, this is interesting. Oh, yeah, how about returning the sum. That's the first problem. Let's compile this. Yeah, it's not called data it's called numbers. Wow, okay. I guess it's getting late because I'm making all these weird little errors. Oh, it's compile. Dang. Oh, yeah, that's an array. Oh, how many errors can I make in one simple program. Yay, finally. Okay. And the weighted sum is 55. And is that correct? Well, let's see. Five plus 14 is well, let's go to go the cake. I'm too lazy. So I have five plus 14 plus 36, which is 55. Yep. Okay, cool. So that pretty much takes care of what I wanted to talk about tonight. So now we've known how to traverse an array we've known how to display it. Oh, there's one other way to display an array by the way. And that is let's go back here to return to array. Another thing that we can do is this instead of saying print array numbers. Let's save this as instead of having to write this ourselves. What we can do is we can import Java dot util dot arrays. Notice the S at the end. And then instead of this, we can say from the line of that, plus arrays dot to string of numbers. And then here we can also say, plus arrays dot to string of cube numbers. We don't need that anymore. And let's do a print LN. The original array is still plus arrays dot to string of numbers. And you'll notice that that prints all the elements in the array, except to print them in square brackets instead of curly braces. Oh well, if you can live with that that's perfectly okay. So that's another way to print things out without having to write a method. So let's use the two string method in the arrays class, but you have to import Java dot util dot arrays to make that work. Now that's it for tonight.

Okay. So the first item is Michelle is asking me to share my screen. I think people know this, but we'll see. We have a new map in town of districts. And can, can everyone see the screen right now? I can see it. Yeah. Yep. Okay. So let me just see if I can minimize this for a second. Okay. If I do it for starters, we don't have precinct one and precinct three anymore. We're now precinct one and pre one a and one B. And just people will have to think of one B as being the old precinct three. But the big change. And Nancy sardinson, I can see you're right on the edge of some of that. I think we've seen that before on the screen right in this area. So, so we, we will be the town will be mailing out information. To people on where their polling site is because of these shifts in the district borders. For us, the where we vote has not changed. So everyone who's in what used to be precinct one. We're not going to be in the same place. We're going to be in the same place. And that's where we're going to be. You know, we're going to be in the same church and everyone who's in precinct three will still vote at the Emmanuel Lutheran church. And I don't know whether I'm just going to stop there. This is actually the town clerk has revised this to show where everybody's polling places are. We made, we voted on that on the council on Monday night. And the. but it affects people in Lynn in district two and Lynn is on the phone. There, Wildwood used to be a polling site and instead of Wildwood being a polling site since there's no bus route to it, the wild wild will be re voting at the Amherst regional high school as will three other of these precincts. Everyone who lives right near the bank center the Anne Whalen house and this whole area which is Amherst college and Whalen will be voting at the bank center and then when you get to the south the Munson library and the Crocker farm school again all of these if you see B it's what used to have another number and we decided there was a decision that it was confusing to people because the old precinct numbers didn't go with the district numbers that we just would go ahead and change it. So I'm going to leave this up but just see if anyone has any questions comments when will you know what kinds of information on this and just raise your hand or we're a pretty small group just talk I don't I don't see any right okay I'm not seeing anything you know so what what we will try to do is one of the things the donor group the neighborhood association group had started to do with some sort of block party some picnics that they would host in different neighborhoods and also try to get out the word to the voters where they're going to be voting so doing that over the summer when we can go back to outdoor meetings but right now that is about all the information we have on the the new voting there will be to the extent people really want to know where you got asked am I still in district one or not the the booklets that the town puts out which lists every street and everybody's address will be available within the next couple months so we will have those as well great thank you so I'll move on then to North Amherst updates and we have a few so starting with the east pleasant street survey a contract has been signed and the survey is going to go from Olympia Drive to pine for new sidewalks and we understand it will take 12 weeks and Paul says that the survey will help to establish the scope of for construction as well as the impact on neighboring properties and they hope to be able to also get some sort of budget information out of that as well so it will take some time but it is in process and then we have the North Amherst library it's our understanding that bids will be reviewed with the architect this week I think there was a bit of a delay on getting the bids but that will be happening this week and then we have two Amherst specific CPAC awards were given to the pickleball courts which are going into Mill River and then the donor group put forward a proposal for the Mill River history walk and that was also approved so those are two great updates as far as CPAC is concerned Kathy did I miss anything no I just you might want to um on the on the pickleball courts and Lynn is on here and I know her husband is a pickleball player as are several people in town the proposal was to put them in at Mill River it has been approved as pickleball courts in Amherst but the what I heard verbally not so much by Sarah Marshall who is the chair of CPAC but from Dave Zomac is there still will be a decision on where they go so I think those of us who would really like them up in at Mill River should continue to advocate for that site and for those of you who know the recreation area they the proposed location of them was as you come down the driveway at the entrance way into the recreation area there's a small parking lot off to the left outside of the basketball courts and that has enough space for two to three pickleball courts so and and it's already paved over which was one of the advantages of it so if you put courts on it we're not adding pavement to grass anywhere so it was an attractive site for that reason so it's just that I don't know when that decision will be made and sometimes things get approved and it takes a long time till till they happen and we don't always know in advance so we'll try to at least keep tracking that okay I'm admitting Meg is joining us I was just going to say I think I had a feeling someone might be there yeah great great welcome Meg you know Meg we just we just did a quick announcement on the CPAC awards and you might want to say a word or two about the award for the history walk um if you're if you're able yep I'm right well just unmuting and I'm you hear me yep yeah I'm gonna start my video and I'm gonna walk somewhere where I'm not bothering anybody and Meg we'll bring you back also if you're oh if you're still here toward the end just to give an overall donut update but um given that we're just talking about this now it would be great to hear that so I apologize for not getting on right at 130 we're in Delaware right now so I'm just gonna move to where I can be have won't bother anybody so we were delighted that our proposal for the uh Miller funded by CPAC with $12,900 and this is going to enable us to hire an architect who will do the preliminary research on the uh cellar holes and some of the uh remaining remnants of the many mills that were on Mill River the uh the goal of the project in the end is to create an interpretive trail that goes from the uh Mill River Recreation Park to the Cushman Common so it gets a little bit into district two I see Lin is here um and it'll have an interpretive signs and a link to through a QR codes to a website and a lot of people aren't aware of the history there were dozens and dozens of mills along the Mill River um from early colonial time until the early 20th century in 1775 there were six already so this is an exciting project we're creating it well I just ran up the stairs too fast going to catch my breath here um we're creating a neighborhood we're doing this in the style of this in the tradition of community archaeology which involves the community and overseeing and managing and monitoring historic sites um and we're creating a neighborhood committee if you know anyone who wants to be on it or if any of you want to we should probably have someone from district two since we're going to touch district two when we get to the Cushman Common a lot of the best the most uh interesting sites are between Cushman Common and Puppers so we're creating a neighborhood committee it'll meet probably once a month David McBarrington is chairing the committee and uh he'll be uh he lives on Pine Street he'll be managing that neighborhood process this neighborhood committee will keep going uh permanently as we you know as we as part of North Amherst culture there'll be this ability for people to participate in the trail the four sites that we're going to look at this first time are the dam and canal at the Mill River Park so if you're at the Mill River Park and you're at the basketball court if you look north you'll see a big hill like a and that's the canal that used to take the water up to the Gris Mill we're also looking at the Cushman Clam Club which is just to the east of Cushman Common which was a man's club and there's still a midden of clam shells that you can see and the two Roberts Mills that are just uh before the rent on both sides of the Robert Francis bridge so very exciting yeah congratulations and it took perseverance um what we're going to we're going to feature and we're going to I think we will be shifting back to the later Sunday afternoon just to feature this but the CPAC definitely is trying to solicit and be welcoming to community um proposals even though they make it extremely difficult to get to yes but we're going to be featuring Sam McLeod would like to come on so probably at the next district meeting just on what it takes to make a proposal what kinds of things they're they're interested in um beyond what has been funded so I think that's it uh Michelle for announcements and yep you're right so um just uh I guess moving in you can go ahead Kath and move right into the school building project update that you have okay so I was going to do I'm chair of the school building committee and at least one person meaning Tony has been to I think virtually every one of our meetings well before we had a designer and others on board and has been following this for years um so I'm going to be showing just a few slides of where we are and I'll try to be super brief because what I'd like to do is come back to this in if we do another district meeting in May or in early June when we're going to be further along with some decisions um but basically let me get my uh let me sure I can from the beginning is that showing up on everybody's screen you know so for those who few who have not been following this um every minute of the time uh as some of us have we are in the midst of talking about a new elementary school and this would be either a renovation with an addition or a brand new building um that would be would have several features that I've listed here including daylight filled classrooms and outdoor space for education but it will also be the first large public building built in Amherst under our net zero bylaw which I'll describe a little bit more what that means but basically we're moving away from fossil fuels that um it would be an all electric building well insulated energy efficient and then we'll use photovoltaic panels to generate renewal energy that will literally should reduce our utility budget to very little or nothing we are we're the school committee voted a while ago to move the sixth grade up to the middle school so the school that's being talked about will consolidate two schools wildwood and fort river and it will be grades k through five for around five hundred and seventy five students the location of those is still up for grabs it's going to be either at wild river or fort river and we're working with a granting authority called the massachusetts school building committee the and that actually dictates our schedule a lot we have to work around what they require for each step when they're meeting we are it where we are in the process as we submitted a preliminary design program which said what are we going to study in the next phase and the school committee came did an education plan an education program which also dictated directly influence the space allocation how many classrooms do we need a gym where our special education kids going and that space summary then determines the size of the building so all of that had to happen to be able to do cost estimates the phase we're in right now that we're hoping to finish by the end of june is going from four choices wildwood or fort river new new or new ad renovated down to one choice or preferred choice and with that we would have new estimates that will have to be approved by the granting authority before we can move from that stage to really designing the building and figuring out exactly what the costs are going to be right now this is scheduled because the school is expensive once we're through that it would come to the council and the council would determine how it's financed but we're expecting this would be a debt exclusion override vote a debt exclusion vote by the voters in town we don't have enough internal ref resources to fund the entire share of the amour share of the project so the point that's not funded by the grant as I mentioned right at the beginning we finished the preliminary design program we're moving into this preferred design choosing of a site and we're hoping to get all of this done in time to get it to the msba so it's a tight deadline by the end of june a few things about the building and then i'll show you a few pictures um any any site or any way of building whether it's new or ad reno will will include certain features um the classroom and program spaces have to meet the educational program so we're building to a certain size of classroom space every classroom will have daylight in it we will have educate outdoor space for both playing and education you know moving to study the outdoors but also have classes outside there will be a safe way to enter the building to drop off children with traffic plans and it will be ad assessor and we're planning for a design of the building that allows community use after hours which means secure entry that not to the whole building but to parts of the building and one notable thing about this building is it will have a what's called a cafeteria and it's going to have a stage in it and the new buildings that i've seen with these are gorgeous so we expect this to be a real resource to the town for small performances during the summer as well as after hours as i said at the beginning we're building a net zero school it's sustainable which means it will be extremely well insulated with user zones so we won't have to heat near conditioned parts of the building that we're not using at any time it will be all electric no fossil fuels and it'll be on site PV solar panels that will generate enough real renewable energy to offset the electric use we see those of us who are super excited about this for climate action and for the aspects of the building is that this building is going to provide a real opportunity for the kids in town as well as all of us to think about climate and learn about what we can do in the few schools that have been built like this and there are several across the country they talk about the excitement in town and visitors come to the town but the kids come home and one beautiful wonderful video as the mother said our child is coming home or third graders coming home and they're unplugging devices all over the house and turning off the lights all the time telling us we're wasting energy and then they come home excited on how much energy the sun generated because they have dashboards in the school so it's a real learning opportunity for kids and given what we're spending now on these two buildings we're going to save well more than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year in heating electrical on our school's work off of coal not coal but oil and gas right now so it may be more than that if you think of the escalation and prices I'm going to go just quickly through a couple pictures we just saw on Friday and I'm speeding through these because there's no decisions being made but as I said earlier we have to choose where is the school going to be built and whether it will be an addition renovation or brand new so what the designer is doing for us is saying what might a two-story what might a three-story look like we don't specifically have to make that decision but we are likely to because it influences the cost of the building for the next round of cost estimate but it's to be able to look at them in the context of either of the two sites so to be able to think of where the building might sit on the site and what does that look like there are clearly a lot of other issues on choosing the site on the traffic patterns getting on and off of the property how much space there is for play space um water table levels fields so um I'm zipping through this one but one of the things they've showed us is that they have to think of where the hallways are and where the community spaces are so in in this the designs they're showing us they color coded these where classrooms are always some sort of a blue and the shared spaces like the cafeteria on the gym or the um uh or the library or not blue so there's something there's some other color and then they've done designs on here's a possible way the three floors might lay out to give us a sense of what this would be and we're going to be doing a lot of this over the summer once we choose the site because the groups that will be involved in this are the kids in the schools now the teachers in the school the staff and community members thinking of how you enter the building where is the gym where's the cafeteria and what they've done in terms of showing us this um I'm hopefully everyone can see this as I flip through them is sort of with a three-story building one of the advantages and what they're seeking to do is the kids stay in the school while they're building so we're not going to be moving children and that means they need enough space on the site to build next to the existing school and you can kind of see the little black outline of the existing school right in here on Fort River or over here on Wildwood so there's a just enough space to build another school there while the existing school so they would build the school and then take down the school this designer said they built like this on a very tight site with eight feet of space between the old school and the new school then they took it down and recreated and I saw this one what they recreated was green fields for people to play on you know so whatever was there before so they're looking at where does the driveway come in where's the parking lot if it's three floors then that was uh there are a couple different designs they've given for three-story this one is just a little bit different on where you enter so it's giving us a sense of what would three stories look like two stories takes more space on the ground because we have to fit the same number of classrooms in it so you have to think of a first floor and a second floor and here's one possible design that they were looking at how would that fit if you did two stories with Wildwood being a tighter site they really have to manipulate it around and one of the other things I'm going to go on more than maybe people want me to but I'm totally into this so is what they're thinking of the sun north being north south they'd like to keep the orientation of the building that way but they have to work with the site and on Wildwood they have Fort River they have to worry about where the water planes are and on Wildwood they have to worry about there's a hill right here you know so they can't just build down into this field so they have to fit it in so two stories fits better if you look at this at Fort River than it does at Wildwood but they're just showing us these pictures right now without making judgments when they're looking at the renovation in addition to an existing building this is what the existing building looks like this entire middle section has no windows it's a great big building of 80 000 square feet so the windows are around this to extent not at the gym on the outside edge so what they've come up with is narrowing out hollowing out this and their design has a green area in the middle so that the classrooms can be all around this in here and then the new addition would be attached to the renovated addition and somehow but I haven't heard exactly how they they have a plan to do this again while the building is occupied so to be a first floor and a second floor of a new addition and the way this looks on a site where you don't get to see all that nice first floor and second floor this is the old and this is the new and so that's on the Fort River site and this is on the Wildwood side and one of the things you can see on this is there's no choice anymore of north south orientation you have to live with whatever the building is so this is all in in the works right now and we're being asked as a building committee to make a decision on both the preferred place we're building and the preferred method new or ad renault so this is a very long and we can anyone who wants to see all these dates I can send them to you we're meeting every two weeks as I mentioned early there's a community community forum scheduled for May 5th which will be well before we make a decision when I say well and the time zones were in its well we will be near to a decision by the beginning of June and we'll be doing a community forum before we make a decision and this was one of the things we assured people is that we would provide information well in advance before final decisions were made so participation is really important get people to come to these meetings the community forum particularly if you have views on either site or ways of doing it so we're meeting every two weeks we're hoping by this end date in June that we will know enough as a committee that we'll be able to vote and we've got a series of criteria on a plus and minus on different options or advantages disadvantages and we'll have cost estimates new cost estimates based on all of what I've just described including what is the building envelope the actual structure for including whatever Hivex system we choose whether we're either going with ground source or air source heat pumps and I'm going to stop there because it was a whirlwind to what Hilda said she had to leave so I'm going to try to do this again Michelle I mean we can figure out when we went Scala district meeting because we'd like to get this out to the districts not just do a community forum on news we're nearing that initial decision which will then drive the design of the building on where we're building it and how we're building it whether to add new and these are not the only drawings they're doing they're trying to update the testing of the soil traffic patterns looking at what they can fit on these sites and they will be updating all the costs and if we do decide to have our next meeting in person somewhere which we hope to be able to do potentially right we'll have to be able to get some sort of screen or something like that that we can make people do this again well and I and I think Michelle in the next one will be down to enough information we can say here's our two or three main comparisons with some looks really good here looks not as good here so we can do something a simple poster maybe to just to let people do as a visual so I know Kathleen you had written in about how much is all of this going to cost she Kathleen had written me with some questions about taxes as well as where's the ARPA money going and we are not prepared to talk about any of that today because we won't really know what the airmer share of the school is until late in this year that we first have to get up with the final cost then the granting authority tells us and at the finest committee level hi we have we have someone who cares about this school is anyone in these schools and you know what for for those who people who are listening one of the really interesting comments on the principle of one of these schools who had visited a three-story school one of her comments is we're living right now in these enormous schools that are half empty because of the enrollment drop and then with COVID we've split up and made walls so when you visit some of these classrooms they have living room space they have project space they have children's space so looking at normal classrooms to her was my goodness they're not they're in 2000 square feet for 12 kids in some of these classrooms so and we're talking about a lot of space right now but so some of this will be decided cost will not be the only factor but we need a final cost estimate over the summer and into the fall before the granting authority tells us what their share what they will do and that will tell us what we need to do from either internal financing of money we've gotten reserves and the finance committee will be looking at modeling this again as before we discuss to what extent what will go out to the community for for debt exclusion and I think I'll just stop there because we I can't give any update on that information just on Kathleen on your questions more generally the finance committee is starting to meet tonight is April beginning of May we will be meeting on every department because the budgets for 2023 the next coming year are coming in we know already what the tax revenue will be the property tax revenue we will get new new those are being regularly updated on what the retail commercial revenue is but the town is living off of very tight budgets because most of our money comes in from the property tax we we do not have a lot of commercial revenue coming in and there's less than it used to be and although we've been helped out a lot with ARPA funds and federal and special state grants a few years down the road those those funding sources aren't going to be available either so we're looking across the board on a multiple year level on issues of affordability across the town and I'm going to stop talking because I know Kathleen Kathleen you wrote me a series of questions and people should just jump in and Meg's hand is going up too and it was on questions so Meg's hand is not handy Tony's hand is up so Meg did you want to jump in and then just quickly Kathy thank you for that report it was not too long and I want to thank you and everyone on the committee for how hard you're working and I urge everyone to encourage people to pay attention right now between now and may because because people get this has been a sort of a third rail issue in Amherst and it doesn't have to be people need to pay attention now early while these decisions before these decisions have been made and we all of us who care about this process as well as the outcome need to do everything we can to encourage people to go to these meetings participate give their input because if it comes later it's it's so much harder and it feels unhelpful once preliminary decisions have been made and the committee has done an amazing job of trying to get input and we just need to think more deeply about how to make sure everybody's paying attention right now to this process and this this my particular excitement is in whichever location isn't picked that we could have a new senior center preschool and maybe a teen center which I think are three constituencies that are really good together and it's sort of embarrassing how awful our senior center situation is in Amherst and I know that's not helpful to raise that right now and we have so many other costs but it's really time for us to think more deeply so I'm excited about what might be possible with the site that's left in terms of seniors preschool and teens you know just I'm going to let Tony talk but on the site that's left a guy named Tim is the one who's been doing a lot of work to look at our current state of the buildings and the current state of the site and in one as he was reporting on this at some point I said so Tim is one of these buildings in better shape if we were going to say let's keep the one that's in better shape and he said what do you mean I said well one of them is going to be empty and he said I wouldn't say that he said remember if you whatever you're going to want to use them for you're going to have to do some work on them and the issue is most of the systems the the write-up of them referred to the highback systems the electrical and plumbing as vintage which was an interesting term and that it's they hadn't seen any like that for quite some time and that our crews have been our crews have been amazing that they've kept them going you know so it's it's not that you have to tear the building down but it's just that there isn't there's a need for some not unsubstantial money to to do whichever building it's not like one is better or worse on that and they're identical in terms of the layout so so Tony hi yeah thank you um thanks for raising that Meg I couldn't agree more on the need to think now about what we could use an 82 000 square foot building for and actually my child who you saw she is in one of those 2000 square feet rooms right now I think there's 16 other kids in her class and two full-time teachers in the class so I feel like she's getting a private school education for free and they have done a lot of renovations already to the buildings because of covid so they did put up full walls to separate those rooms and doors the doors look like solid wooden doors and there's natural light in all those spaces so we have 12 2000 square foot spaces ready to go for another use and totally agree with Kathy that we would need to replace the HVAC system in whichever building is remains and ideally get it off fossil fuels so I think that's something that the town is looking at for every town owned building the police station they're looking at moving to vrf and I'm sure whichever building remains that should be a jcpc part of the jcpc plan to get them off fossil fuels and I know the fort river roof is in worse condition it needs replaced right away I think there's less or fewer leaks in the wildwood building right now but I thank you Kathy I echo some of Meg's comments to appreciating the committee and the thoroughness and I know you are working so many hours for free on this so I really appreciate that I just wanted to to say Kathy I've really appreciated in the past how you always think beyond the project itself like I know when when downtown development projects come up you're always asking like well what are the town costs that may be triggered from this is there going to be a bus stop needed is there going to be new water infrastructure or any other impacts of a project and so I think it's important for everybody to understand that these sites have other impacts and for example the traffic study indicated that wildwood would probably need a second driveway and entrance and it may not be viable because of cost there is a backing up on strong street and a backing up at the entrance there could be a knock on impact of a need to improve the intersection with these pleasant and strong street whether that's around about or signalized that's a cost that needs to be built into and then you mentioned the water at Fort River the geotechnical also outfound water at Wildwood two to five feet down and it has the same soil challenges that Fort River has as far as fill they put in like temporary not temporary but soil that you can't put a two or three story building on at both sites so so both sites have a lot of the same soil and water issues that will add cost and as far as the climate stuff goes I know geothermal definitely the ground source wells definitely lower the energy of the building so I think if we can in any way the town should strive to for ground source and it looks like Fort River has a lot more space for that than Wildwood and as Kathy mentioned Wildwood is a very tight site and the limitations on the space mean you really can't go to two-story as as Kathy showed it's like a t-shaped building to make it fit whereas at Fort River there's a lot more room that you could put a two-story building with the correct orientation and then just on the green space in the play space for kids like right now um obviously with the pandemic we really value the kids being able to be outside we don't know what the future holds we may need space for outdoor learning and Fort River has acres and acres of outdoor space whereas as you saw from the drawing on Wildwood it's pretty cramped there I don't know how many outdoor classrooms could be accommodated on that space at the one time so from what I've seen so far I came into this with an open mind but from what I've seen so far Fort River to me looks like a better site for the school and then thinking about if that was the case Wildwood would be the leftover site and all those ideas that Meg suggested seems like a good fit for example if you had a BIPOC youth center at Wildwood the middle and high school kids could just walk up the hill um after school you could have intergenerational programming which I know the senior center is striving to develop and then there's a there's a community action um head start right on the Wildwood campus already um so it's it's a complimentary you know use there so um the other thing was the two and three story um like I said Wildwood seems like it's going to force a three story choice whereas if two story I don't know what the pros and cons are it seems like two story would be easier access to outdoors a larger roof area for PV and perhaps Fort River is preferable in that way too because it gives you that choice um so yeah there's just some of my comments thank you thank you yeah thank you Tony that was really helpful I follow up on with a can I ask you a question Kathy as a follow-up oh absolutely you know ask questions and um you know just just one assurance that the types of things that Tony just mentioned in terms of costs that are related to any decision those are going to be priced out um so you know to the extent there is a somewhat of an issue at Fort River not as as much of an issue on the exit out of Fort River is really near the intersection right now so you know I'm not uh left hand turned so that looking at things like that do we knew a different signal and Fort River building up the foundation um so the estimators and the designers are trying to address to help us make the decision by building up it's do we want it to be more expensive no but if there are related costs we need to be looking at all of them um when we're when we're making this decision so those will be part of this next round of cost estimates so Michelle go ahead yeah just a follow-up on that and just for clarification so it's the building committee that will vote on where the site will be is that right okay yes and then is there some criteria that is you know already been established in terms of how that decision will be made and I know you're doing a lot of community outreach but what are the ways that as people are following along as like Tony has sort of come up with her own ideas based on what she's seen what are the ways that community members might be able to provide other than you know is it sending an email to you as the chair or but more more I'd like to understand like what criteria is going to be used to make that final decision by the committee an excellent question we have a criteria it's called an evaluate evaluation criteria matrix that was a draft of it came from the designer really early on and we're looking at it um to make sure um and that first draft we redraft you saw Tony is not at all final we're Phoebe and I are going to go back and look at it we were trying to avoid duplication on rose and we realized some things got knocked off that shouldn't have but we're trying to set up things that would allow you to say this is a bit better on this and all four are viable okay so we eliminated a couple that look like they don't work period so now all four of these new either site ad reno either side are viable choices for us and they're not bad choices so now we have to is this one a bit better are they about the same is this one a little worse so we've got criteria like the traffic entry and movement on and off the availability of outdoor space to play and green space and you know a few others that will allow you to do a you know if you color coded in green is looks really good you know uh white is not better or worse and uh orange is a little less good you know kind of looking at it and then it's going to be uh there are 13 people on the committee um at some point we'll have to vote because at this point I don't think anything is going to come out with all all positives and all less good it's going to be on the one hand and on the other hand kinds of issues the price tag will matter um we're very conscious of trying to make a cost effective decision but and just to give you some of the tradeoffs here with um with ad reno um you you have less choice of where to orient the building and you have to do a bigger envelope for the building the way you saw that outside room which makes it inherently less energy efficient not because of any fault so it needs more of and name whatever the more of to heat and air conditioning it and then the pv system to offset those costs so we're going to have all of that information to look at um and then weighing in I think we will be well hopefully it's the beginning of May by the by the beginning of May it's been in April by the beginning of May that matrix will have stopped moving and we will have started to fill it out so that May 5th the meeting you're going to be some seeing some of this and then between that and the June community meeting we will be filling out more of that and I think we'll figure out a way to get information out push it out on a more frequent basis this is we meet Friday mornings from 8 30 to 10 30 and all the meetings are on Zoom but it we shouldn't be asking people to hang out for a two hour meeting to wait to do comments at the end of it as the only way to getting comments in so we will be looking for how do we get additional input just for the others who are on the call who don't know the composition we have principles of both schools on the committee um we have a school committee member we have the maintenance staff the facility director so we have people that know these buildings and these sites really well um and the superintendents on it and then we have our finance director and town manager and two counselors and three other people on who have kids in the schools you know and two architects so we have a nice mix of people in terms of two of our two of our members have children in two of the schools so it's a you know interesting perspective where one has them one Crocker and one Fort River the other is one Waldwood and one Fort River so that will be a perspective but this choice um to me feels uh a lot of weight on my shoulders is one way of doing it a lot of responsibility and I would like to make as informed a decision both by what the outside world thinks as well as the information we have so it's a terrific question it's my personal preferences I'd like to make I would I would not want to have a decision that 15 years from now people said actually with Waldwood and Fort River they said it two years later why did you build this way you know I mean they literally they after we built school number one people said don't build another and we built a second one with the same design um for I wasn't here as a voter then I don't know why I think we got a cheap architecture drawing because they're identical you didn't have to redesign a building um but but I think in informed input and Lynn will probably I don't know Lynn whether we we don't have time to probably schedule a council meeting before this but the counselors are going to be aware of this too just on people getting their views in so we don't have just the few dedicated souls who show up every Friday morning at 8 30 thank you there are we have a group and Tony's one of them and Maria's one of them they are always there and they have come to every net zero meeting so Tony can probably tell you as much about ground source versus air sources I can on what these things are and why one might be better than the other or not as good as the or they're kind of equal um but but all of that is is under a very condensed timeline so um and if we don't get to this point by end of June it's not like the sky falls down it just means we miss an MSBA meeting and then we push the construction off by you know half a what the building gets open to half a year later you know I mean it's it's that kind of if we don't do this now we lose time on the other end so we're trying to stay on this tight timeline so I just want to say that because we're using the chat function I know some some districts don't um just some um shout outs to you Kathy for your amazing leadership on this and um really just uh it's it's a lot it's a lot resting on you and you're doing a fantastic job and I think we all really appreciate that so um and just one little comment if it's not in the matrix and maybe it's not um you know appropriate for the matrix per se but I think what Tony was talking about in terms of the building that's left is a really important consideration in terms of the decision itself um obviously the town will decide how they're going to use whatever you know is going to be left but I think Meg made some excellent points about the possible uses and I think that should be something that's considered I mean just to connect the dots that Tony talked about you know with students being so close and being able to access um from the middle school or high school to the Wowwood location for example I mean I think that's really important to think through not only what's the best building for the new school but what's what are the sort of factors then with the with the space that's left I think so too you know and and I actually had that initially as one of my criteria I wanted to add and we did have it up as a priority and we're trying to figure out do you all things considered we'd go this way or that way and that's the tipping factor you know on you know because you don't want that to be the first factor we look at um so it's like it's the tipping factor that if we're kind of on a seesaw on the one hand on the other hand and then is it you know so when we bring that in but that it's just come up on a regular basis in both directions I mean there's good things to think about on the Fort Riverside too as if it was the vacant site so it's it's just trying to you know in terms of access and parking spaces and community fields um so so in any case it's it's those are the pluses and minuses and your Fort River has natural gas as its utility so if we didn't completely upgrade it runs on half the cost of a Wildwood on just the heating because one is oil and one is gas I didn't know why it was so much cheaper and they said because gas you know you don't want to keep it long term but it's it's they're different they're subtle differences so Tony yeah I just wanted to follow up on what Michelle said um and I totally agree Michelle I think it would be great to get that conversation the potential uses of the vacated site into the prior to the decision on site because I think it is a factor and I agree with Kathy like that tipping point like if there was one site that was much better for a school that wouldn't change that right that wouldn't change it but um I just wanted to say about the another piece of climate action is transportation and so I was just my own I love digging through data so what I spent yesterday morning doing was going through the bus routes and how many kids live where getting on the bus and how many kids live within a half mile of each site so they can walk or bike pretty easily and it was with the current routes this is um Fort River and Wildwood there's 19 kids within a half mile of Fort River currently and 11 within a half mile of Wildwood currently and I'm thinking about okay what we you know we're always looking at developing housing if we were to develop housing where would it more likely be and and I heard Chris Breastrop say at a recent planning board meeting that they're considering a chapter 40 r for the east village um which would make it attractive to develop housing in that area and if you think about the east village which is right next to Fort River there's a lot of like single story commercial strips there there's the bank on the corner there's the the strip with like Kelly's and and uh so this seems like and there's the one with the yoga studio in the north hot pot so it seems like there could be potential for development there housing development that may you know may bring in more school age children who would be able to walk to the Fort River site and I know the wayfinders I asked for the bedroom breakdown of the wayfinders developments there's because the east street schools literally across the street from Fort River and it's going to have two three and four bedroom units which will be affordable so potentially there could be school age children living there also so it's just another factor to consider and as far as when to bring it in one of the early community meetings the designer Donna Donisco the lead for the design firm said that something they learned from other projects was the future she called it the disposition of the vacated site that that the feedback later was it got talked about too late in the process and her recommendation was talk about it early get community engagement early because if you wait until after you've picked the site then it's not really a choice it's kind of the default and so yeah just a few more points there thank you. Thank you Tony. All right Kath would you be ready to move on if there aren't any other questions on this okay great um and I so we plan to just give quick reviews of the committees that we are on and I think Kath talked about finance already to say that we're going to be delving in meeting very frequently this next month in May I think it's twice a week for three hours to review the different departments within the budget and Kath I don't know if there's anything else to say about that particular committee right now other than that. No I don't I don't think so um no especially anything that's left to say on that is nuances and you'd have to care passionately about some sub piece of it so yeah um and I'll just give a quick update on so I chaired the governance organization and legislation committee and I was hoping that Hilda would be here for me to say that she is sponsoring I believe you're a sponsor on the Jewish American Heritage Month proclamation but just to point out that GOL is sort of it's a committee that not many people come to um if anybody um but it's actually a really interesting committee and um we've been working on a lot of proclamations and resolutions and finding that it's a great way to engage community members so um having community sponsors for particular proclamations like the Juneteenth Proclamation for example and bringing those sponsors um in for the review of the proclamation and then it sort of just gives a more um a deeper and richer context for the proclamation so um anybody is welcome to suggest a proclamation if you find a counselor that was willing to work on it with you um and like I said Hilda is sponsoring one that's um just coming up um for the Jewish American Heritage Month and um so just just to say about that we're also working on an equity lens review process this is a process that GOL hopes to develop um to be able to use across all of our um committees in our work in the town council to make sure that we're using an equity lens um as we're reviewing and making decisions and then I'll give a quick update on the African Heritage Reparation Assembly I'll also pop something into the chat one of the exciting pieces of work that we're doing right now is um we just received the deliverables on our African American Black Census um we partnered with the Dunahue Institute at UMass to do that and it was very interesting information and we have some great visuals also so I'll pop a link in into the chat for that if you'd like to take a look and it's also the most recent census data um is available to to see there and we'll be using that in particular for community engagement so that we can identify areas where Black or African American community members are living and be able to reach them as we move through this process. Kath did you you have a hand up? Yeah I was just going to say that Michelle that you might want to um we could figure out how to get some of this out through Dunahue also because in that report the summary I saw of it what was striking is the makeup of the town of Amherst yeah I know out of 39,000 people that the census is counting 23,000 of them are students and 14,000 live on campus which gives you a sense of how many don't live on campus um you know so it was just a striking update and reminder of how the the face and composition of Amherst has changed over time um and and it it's part of the thing that has segwayed into we're starting to look at what happens in neighborhoods um when those when a formerly a family house turns into a student house um because it was vacant and the investors bought it but it it was just a really interesting updated statistic that I hadn't seen um yeah yeah I think you're absolutely right and the the indie actually did a nice coverage of it if you just want something quick to look at um Kathy is absolutely right out of our 39,263 residents 23,000 are students 16,000 living in dorms um and then 9% or 3450 residents identified themselves in black or black in combination with another race with 900 of them living on campus so yeah very very interesting that information came from the latest national census in the American community survey so I'll pop the link in and and I'll talk to Dona about that that's a good I think if I we're actually working right now on a mini press release with the town to get this information out so I can forward that and they could potentially be able to get that out okay um and just a couple more updates um with the African Heritage Reparation Assembly we are developing a community survey right now and this survey is going to go out to all community members we're hoping to identify some stakeholders in sub-communities throughout the town to be able to really get boots on the ground and get um get get the survey out to as many people as possible um and the survey is going to look at um what people believe a reconciliation process should look like in the town it's going to ask people about what they know about reparations what they know about the historical context of anti-black structural racism and amorphous so we're in the process of developing that and um maybe at a at our next meeting we'll be further along and be able to talk about ways to get that out um I know there's a lot of surveying happening in the community right now so um but this is we're really excited about that and then the last update there is the town council I want to say a month ago now um unanimously voted to ask the town manager to begin drafting special legislation um which would define reparations as a public purpose for amorphous and this is um to give us a legal pathway for distributing reparation benefits when that time comes and to also give the most flexibility as possible to the african heritage um residents so those are the updates there and maybe just pause to see if there are any questions because I know we did get a couple emails about that and then um we could move to a rental registration update before opening things up for discussion Maria hi am I unmuted yes okay great um so I'm really interested in the survey and Michelle if you are going to be involved with that at all or indeed with any surveys it's you mentioned that there may be other surveys happening I really think it's imperative that we ask we get demographic data on respondents so that we know who are we reaching who is responding to this survey so we know that we're not just getting upper middle class white people that are responding to it so I mean I think we I think we need at least uh race age and um some marker of socioeconomic status to be sure who are we reaching and if we're not doing a good enough job reaching a broad uh swath of our community I think we need to you know question the validity of the survey but more importantly do better to fix that thank you thank you so much for bringing that up absolutely we plan on sort of the the beginning of the survey will ask for basic demographic information for people who are willing to share it but one of the the ways that we really hope to reach folks in all the pockets of our community is by identifying these leaders or sort of stakeholders that can help us to get into the different areas of our community that we've struggled to get into for any community engagement uh but I absolutely agree with you if we're not able to to to say who is responding to these then in some ways you know there are the same people that respond often to things and we need to be able to expand and and make sure that we're reaching as you said a broad swath of the community so thank you for bringing that up and it is absolutely very important to the committee to do that as well and just to follow up Maria you said you were interested do you mean that you are interested in being involved in the process of the survey or you just were making that comment it was more of a general comment on on all surveys I mean I think it's I think getting the input of larger amherst broader amherst on any number of different topics is extremely important um and so I I was just feeling encouraged about the fact that you were uh looking to to do that on at least this issue so it was it was really a general yes yes to asking people directly and yes to making sure you're reaching people great okay good are there any other questions on the African heritage reparation assembly or the reparations work all right and Meg I see your comment in the chat so I'll definitely respond to that um I think Meg was asking for the link so but maybe that went direct to me so yeah um okay so uh a quick update on the rental registration work um that that the council is looking at so um a group of sponsors came forward I am one of those sponsors um to put a permit fee structure in place it's not a permanent permit fee structure it's temporary um until a new bylaw is established and that has been referred to TSO um TSO is having some really good conversations about that and um we'll make a recommendation before it comes back to the council to be voted on um I think the biggest sort of piece of feedback that I've been hearing and that TSO has been presenting when they're discussing this is how so the proposal gives a discount to owner-occupied landlords but some of the feedback we've been receiving is that there are landlords in the community they've lived here for many years and they may have a rental like a condo that they used to own and should they you know also be entitled to some discount or should they fall into the category of a landlord who owns many units or is doesn't live in the town of Amherst so I think that's something that that's that's being discussed further um and then with respect to the bylaw itself it has been referred to CRC um and the chair of that committee has created a work plan that will give us the opportunity to work on it um throughout the next several months and invite in folks from the community whether they're experts whether they're staff whether they're um residents who are interested um so there will be a lot of opportunities for input there and I think this is something that is uh really um on people's minds and something that we hope we'll be able to have a full and robust discussion with our community about um um I think that was all I had for that so if there are any questions on that we could pause um Kath yep yeah no I just wanted to make a comment so um Kathleen Carroll's on and there we met a couple years ago meaning the we then was Sarah Swartz and I um with a neighborhood around Fisher and Harris where a lot of the homes it's one of these tipping point neighborhoods where a lot of the homes are now rentals that weren't before so part of this we looking at the bylaw is saying um can we when and how should we treat different properties differently based on um they're well maintained nothing ever goes wrong with them the police are never called at the property the neighbors are happy with what's going on versus problem more problematic um and then the second issue that we're hearing from is treating mega complexes large investor-owned chain like lots of units versus what you just said Michelle um a resident who owns a few units or has a few so try into um in in addressing some concerns that neighborhoods have had not paint everything with the same paintbrush um so I think it's going to be important for people to stay tuned to this because it's really difficult um and my my own background from years ago is the only thing I can draw in and it's not particularly relevant but when I was in the healthcare world and people were thinking nursing homes there were some nursing homes where you really wanted them to be inspected somewhat frequently because they were regularly starving there in the people who live there bed sores for the people that you know whatever complaints versus others that you knew were operating and they all were supposed to buy by the same standards but just think differently about them if you know something so try that's where the council is and the CRC group and this exploration is going on can we strengthen what we have already on the books to be in a meaningful way um so I I think neighborhoods we we got um emailed from two different neighborhoods and their groups forming that are concerned about what's happening to their neighborhood and then there's neighborhood groups that are broader that have been working on this for a long time that they know one of their recourse this is to call the police and that shouldn't be the only thing that happens if there are are issues so so it's it's opening up something that we realize is tricky is I guess a real layperson's term on this tricky also you know involves staff and so the staff has to really be the the people that administer the rental registration program enforce the inspections and all of that so there's a lot more that's being considered maybe than meets the eye just to somebody you know looking into it looking in on it so yeah absolutely okay kath did you should we pass it oh yeah I think we should just open it up for any other comments you know we see we had a better participation last first time but last time we did it where we had a later afternoon slot a three to five and that one just turned out to not work this time and then five to seven didn't work for several people who ended up actually not coming so we're going to try to find us the sweet spot for for meeting times and topics but we would definitely like to hear from D1 district one neighborhood association but just any questions kathleen I think we you had emailed me about taxes and ARPA money and we didn't put it on this agenda but things for future meetings that you would like to hear or have us focus on this is a time for both hearing from meg and and what our neighborhood association hasn't worked and for anyone else who's on the call and tony's hands up and meg's hand is half up meg do you want to do a quick donor report or do you want to first talk about future either one yeah either one either way you do a quick donor okay um this is uh thank you kathleen this is helpful uh i'll be really quick we have a bunch of exciting plans for this year for district one neighborhood association um we've discovered that a lot of the things that people are concerned about are related to transportation and planning so we're creating a we're taking the planning committee that we had last year and expanding it and we're creating a sub transportation component of that planning uh looking specifically at uh speed calming speed what is the traffic calming i think is the term on the montague road summer and pine street uh looking at the possibility of a crosswalk at pine and harris and uh we're going to have a summer uh i hope at the park at the pavilion workshop for everybody to come with maps and kind of draw on them what they would like to see in terms of speed traffic and so on and of course the big kahuna issue is the main intersection where there are five roads coming together so we really want to get on top ahead of that because the town is going to make decisions and whether it includes public input will depend on how prepared we are we're monitoring the library uh project uh hoping very much that there will be some north amherst library presence during the construction uh we're monitoring and pressuring really hard on the east pleasant street sidewalk which we've been told two weeks ago that the survey is now happening although i haven't seen any evidence of it but we're really pushing for that it's horrifying especially in a snowstorm to drive up east pleasant street and see the number of people who are walking basically inches away from the traffic because buses letting people off into snow banks because there's no sidewalk. John Gerber's leading a really cool project to create a nature trail that goes from the renaissance center and they've given us permission for parking it goes east over to the agricultural learning fields in center of the beehives and the field experimental fields and so on down to simple gifts along simple gifts across the street to mill river and through the mill river trail system to puppers and to kushman paralleling the uh new history trail that i already mentioned john has just taken this on and done a fantastic job working with david zomek and uh so it'll what it means too is that while we await the east pleasant street sidewalk there'll be a trail that'll kind of go up the the the pathway between the north pleasant street and east pleasant street and get you to the renaissance center so almost where the sidewalk is so it'll be a web walking uptown from north hammers that uh doesn't require going on north pleasant street or the road we're going to have a whole bunch of backyard parties this summer instead of big huge we have probably have one barbecue but we're going to have in order to meet more neighbors we're going to have what we're calling pop-up parties and we have a it'll include everything from voter registration to eating pizza and meeting each other and finding out what people's concerns are we're also uh having hoping to have a session which we may actually might want to do this with kathy and michelle instead of us doing it is so i'll suggest that we think of the best way to organize a district one briefing and conversation about the impact on district one of the various zoning proposals that are being discussed uh whether they affect us or don't they're mostly organized developed around the downtown but be interesting to see what impact they're going to have on district one we're uh also doing some other things that are i don't need to go into strengthening or we're getting tax exempt status strengthening our website and north amherst is a designated historic town center and we want to get a sign that says that as you enter so that we're trying to we're very worried that uh people in town not see the north north amherst as a part of town that we the purpose of which is to drive through as quickly as possible uh but it's a place to you know stop and buy things and hike and recreate and so on not just a uh it's pretty stunning how huge the trucks are ramble at very high speed up and down montague road and up and down fine street um it's really amazing so we're love to hear anybody's ideas of what you think we should be doing and that's what we think we should be doing that's what we're doing so great how much you do as a community association it's really wonderful and we're we're very blessed to have dona in our community doing all of this amazing and exciting and culturally we you know relevant work so thank you meg i'm thrilled to have such awesome counselors just just one no i i echo what michelle just said on the crosswalk michelle michelle meg i know you're going to try to do a petition and get some signatures uh you need to once that's done push hard at the attack level the transportation advisory committee to get it uh sort of like rubbers green stamped with a great idea important so that you can come with a resident proposal to jcpc and not be told that you should have gone to tack first yeah thank you very good because and to be and you know because it's the the root in is really important and it's it could be financed at a pretty low level unless you're told you know you get you're going to get a price tag really high from dpw because somehow it's more expensive when they hear about it in theory than when they do it in fact um but but it has died just so you know it's died twice before that crosswalk well that's a good example of that is the we wanted the smart light which we got we were told by dpw would be 250 thousand dollars and it turned out it was 50 thousand dollars yeah I'm just saying that this uh Nicola brought this a while ago that that exact crosswalk pre pre the existence of the council when it was still town meeting but it just never went anywhere because it didn't have the oomph so just going I would just strongly advise going that route um I wrote it down thank you and Meg before you got here we talked about the survey and that that is under contract and according to Paul's latest town manager report it's going to be at least 12 weeks of a process but it sounds like it's underway so and so Tony's got her hand up too so I didn't mean to jump in right away Tony but oh that's fine no it's actually a perfect segue because I was going to say that I have seen the survey guys out on East Pleasant and there's some like paint at the end of my street with TOA I imagine that's town of Amher showing the property line and so it's very exciting to see them there I hope none of them get hit because they're right in the road with their little uh you know stands so um but I just wanted to thank Michelle and Kathy for getting that to happen because it was a few years ago and Dona as well Dona has really been very supportive about that so I was one of the petitioners to get that survey funded and then it just you know sat in the shelf and nothing happened so really thank you thank you to Meg and Michelle and Kathy for making that happen so now the pressure is for the next step how do we get the construction budgeted um so whether that's a grant that needs to get written or whether it's money that needs to get earmarked in the JCPC plan um it'd be really great if Michelle and Kathy both of you could keep that keep the pressure on there because I feel like the survey can happen and then you know it'll be 10 years before anything gets talked about with construction so um you know money's just going to get tighter over the next few years when all these building projects that repayments start to fold you so anything you can do to keep that front and center while the survey is fresh would be much appreciated thank you you know just Tony had a thought on that um I agree that I an example that we just got a payout from the state for the poor state of our roads because our legislators brought it home we need some payout of state money for sidewalks I mean they're extremely expensive so trying to think of where we can work our state legislatures what our priorities are and argue safety and pedestrian and green you know put it in this climate piece I it's not just the east pleasant street road sidewalk but that's it's going to be a big issue because money is tight as an understatement on on what we've been looking at uh as as uh multiple claims on the same dollars um so so I I think that's right trying to think larger and mag is we you know the the intersection the unsafe intersection has stalled forever because unless we get a big state grant it's just not going to happen um and so uh so we could build consensus about what we might want and it it sits on a to be continued when money becomes available so so I think they're building yeah we just have to come up with a plan that we agree on and push for it oh no and and a plan we agree on and and then making sure that's the plan that's been submitted to the state so I won't go I won't go around the we should be glad we didn't get the grant last time because it wasn't for what we thought it was for up here in North Amherst but yes um and and I think you know we're I have to double check with Guilford DPW the smart light was supposed to come with a counting capacity counting not accounting meaning counting trucks cars people and bicycles so one of the things I've noticed and I know uh Jessica and others who haven't been on the phone but in that intersection there are more period so as COVID has gone away and the north village the beacon apartments are now full and people are out and about um we're back to a traffic flow that was pre COVID but also I think more intense and that was one of the issues why we didn't get the grant last time you know that the state coming out of Boston to take a look at our intersection and they said you think this is a problem and they showed up during the summer and didn't see any backlogs and whatever but you know trying to make sure we get the counts and on the big trucks I'd like to count on the big trucks so I'm just going to find out if we can know those because they're they're rooted through an area that is more congested than it used to be yeah so any we we don't have a huge group here right now but um I would urge everyone to send in ideas issues um the Kathleen Carroll who I saw logged off she'd asked me about taxes and where they're going and where are we spending on the ARPA money and I thought that's a larger discussion but we could make you know that how much money did the town get from ARPA and where are we spending it we can put we can make that an agenda item but if anyone wants to send in others and we'll just come prepared including we'll bring people in who can talk about it in a more informed way than perhaps we can I know when Lynn and Pat held their district meeting they brought in some town staff so we we can figure out what topics people would like to know more about and want to be partly a presentation partly a discussion exactly what you mentioned a resident Sam that was going to bring Sam McLeod McLeod if I say his name right he is on the community protection preservation at committee and he is an outreach they developed a website a facebook page but they would like to describe how to apply for a resident proposal you know so not it's resident proposal is over at JCPC this is just a proposal to CPAC and it has to fit in different categories but they have an open period that'll be coming up opening in the summer so they want to make sure they come out to district meetings and it can't it has to fit but it can be things like a playground area adding something for recreation or an open area that has no recreation so recreation is one and it can be very small or larger and they don't get a lot of community-based proposals so Meg squeak squeaked its way in through a lot of work a lot of work yeah we will feature that and we will try to do more advanced notice with probably a three to five sunday slot unless we hear differently from people that seem to be a better time slot one of the things that I've been interested in is trying to find ways to engage district one when it comes to voting days on voting days I think that trying to sort of brainstorm and think about together ways that we can engage not only on voting days but to sort of get people in the district more engaged overall in in what's happening here so that's something that I would like to find a way to talk about some point sounds good so I think we don't have to we're down to a smaller and smaller group as people log off so I think we could say that we have finished the district one meeting for today do you think yes thank you for being here yeah thanks everyone thank you all thank you enjoy the rest of your weekend bye bye bye um kath I think it will stop recording when you get off but it just can you just check it because I want to make sure that we get it under the cloud so I go up do I click up and just do a stop yeah what happens if you do a stop

Det har varit mycket progress i att driva diversitet i UK-bordrummet över de senaste fem årna. Vi kan se lite övriga data i Lord Davis-reporten, men det finns mycket att göra. Men om vi tittar på reporten och tittar på vad som har hänt, 25% av alla nya rekrutningar till borten har varit fem år senaste år. Och om vi tittar på alla borten på e-mailen har de varit reducerade från 21 till 11. Så det finns progress. Det här också visar att det är UK-modellar med volontariv initiativ och att de vill ta oss. Det finns många studier som visar att komponenter och organisationer kan bli mer effektivt med en fler annorlunda diskussion. Jag kan se från min egen erfarenhet som både president och CEO och chärmen vad det betyder för att ha folk från alla olika delar av societyen. Det är också viktigt att folk i organisationen tror att jag har rätt och har möjlighet att kompeta på min egen märk. Det är allt som sker och jag har samma rätt och samma möjlighet att försöka min karriere. Och det är viktigt att skriva rollmodeller. När du tänker på de här människorna är de typen för våra nästa ord. Så de behöver vara inspirerade och se att de har möjlighet. I order to drive change and create more diversity means we have to break down barriers. And there are challenges involved with that. First of all there are just fewer women to choose from that have the long experience that is required. And there are even those that suggest that women don't have the tradition of making themselves visible in the same way as men do. But it's also about doing it differently than what we're used to. There is a lot of unconscious bias here where it's always easy to recruit people and men recruit men better. They know how we behave and we fit in better and faster. But the thing is to get around that and make sure that people can appreciate the richness of the debate and the board work that follows when you get more women on board.

We have to talk about one other player who stock is down. It's Gus Edwards of the Ravens. What were you expecting from him and what went wrong? I guess it wasn't really something that went wrong. I think it was more so that we're getting confirmation that our worst case outcome for Gus Edwards is true. Because in that game against Atlanta, you know, Atlanta is this team notorious for funneling targets to the running back. And they did funnel targets to a running back. It just wasn't Gus Edwards. It was time on Gumry instead. Gus Edwards has one more target than I do this year, one more target than you do, Maria. And that's probably not a good thing for fantasy production because as we talked about on the show many times throughout the year, a target is worth twice as much as a carry. So the 21 carries for Gus Edwards, that's good. He's had good, you know, carry workloads the entire year. And if he scores a touchdown, great. He can still pay off. But if he doesn't get those targets, it's really hard to trust him unless he scores. Or if that team gets behind. And next week they're going on the road. They're facing Kansas City. They're probably not going to win that game. And that's a pretty big red flag for a guy like Gus Edwards. Even though Kansas City's rush defense can be exploited, I don't think it matters with the potential game script in that game because if they fall behind, it's gonna be time on Gumry or Kenneth Dixon who was activated from IR before that game on Saturday. So there are a couple of guys here who can take away targets from Gus Edwards. That's a concern. Kenneth Dixon as a runner, pretty good. He had a really good rookie year. I know he's back in 2016, but he looked good then he was a fun prospect coming out of college too. So they have some talent in that backfield outside of Gus Edwards. And that talent is guys who can take away those higher leverage looks from Edwards specifically as a receiver. So I kind of think it's not, you know, necessarily Gus Edwards getting us stuck down. Maybe that's not the way to phrase it, but instead he confirmed our fears where he's not gonna get work as a receiver. And unless he scores, things could go bad in a hurry. So I think next week on the road in Kansas City, that's a spot where I can't trust Gus Edwards. I know, again, the chief's rush defense isn't great, but his archetype of players is not one that's super conducive to upside in fantasy. So for me, I think I'm pretty much out in Gus Edwards at least for next week in Kansas City with that matchup, with that potential game script. And until I see him start to get targets, it's gonna be hard to have a lot of faith in him. Not being a pass catching threat is already one strike against Edwards, then you throw Kenneth Dixon in the mix and some other factors, and it's just not necessarily a play that you feel super comfortable with. Well, Jim Sonness and Number Fire, thanks so much for the insight as always. That's gonna do it for this edition of the FanDuel. Hurry up, but for more content, just hop over to fanduel.com slash the duel and click on videos or subscribe to our YouTube channel for the Fantasy Sports Network.

For me, this is one of the reasons I love being a chapel, is multiple denominations, multiple people all coming together. It's amazing this installation and so when we talk about that, just the support that we get from commands, to do exactly what we're supposed to be doing by law, which believe it or not, this is the neat thing about being a chapel. By law, we're supposed to conduct a service for a unit on Sundays. And so it would be a joy to be able to do it on a post that doesn't have a chapel. And so this is really the one service we do throughout the year. And it's really neat. And so we have the various commands come together to celebrate a tremendous, tremendous event history that changed history. That was amazing. So we're just glad to have the support and we hope that everything that was presented today was encouraging and uplifting and filled hearts with hope and gladness and joy and the support that we received from the entire First Army. Our commander came here. We used every single chair. So our message that we want everyone to realize is that your faith matters and your spiritual resiliency is important. To inoint the body, I want you to think about that for a second. I don't know the last rough march you were on. But how much weight did you have on your back? So here First Army, in the chaplain section, we believe in spiritual, emotional, mental and physical fitness and we believe that spiritual fitness is the most important of all those because it creates the foundation for the rest of them to wrestle. So it is through our spiritual fitness that we become fit in every possible way. The Sunrise Service, and this is what's so exciting when you look out across this area, you can see such tremendous symbolism, which we kind of brought up at the end as well, which is out of the darkness comes light.

Welcome everyone, and thank you for joining us at SFPL's Virtual Library, i.e. Zoom. Today, artist Chip Lord chronicles his lifelong involvement with the automobile from childhood fascination to the central material of art making with the group Ant Farm and beyond. Ant Farm was an avant-garde architecture, graphic arts, and environmental design practice founded in San Francisco in 1968 by Chip Lord and Doug Michaels. This visual lecture by Chip Lord was first given in the graduate lecture series at the SF Art Institute and then at the Toledo Art Museum during the exhibition Life is a Highway, Art in American Car Culture 2019. The San Francisco Public Library hosts hundreds of programs a month system wide. They are all free to log in and or attend in person always. Programming consists of film viewings, tech, job and financial coachings, knitting circles, storytelling workshops with the opera, book clubs, author lectures, instructor led arts and crafts classes, etc. This month we highlight and celebrate more than a month, SFPL's celebration of black history and futures. In the chat we'll post SFPL's upcoming events link so you know what's happening soon at your library. We'll also post our YouTube channel link where you can watch other outstanding library programs. Before we get started with our current program we've got a bit of housekeeping to do. First and foremost, land acknowledgement. The San Francisco Public Library acknowledges that we occupy the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Shaloni peoples, who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco peninsula. We recognize that we benefit from living and working on their traditional homeland. As uninvited guests, we affirm their sovereign rights as first peoples and wish to pay respects to the ancestors, elders and relatives of the Ramaytush community. For more information on SFPL's Ramaytush Shaloni land acknowledgement, please see the link posted in chat. This program has been sponsored by the Friends of the Library and brought to you by the Art, Music and Recreation Center of the San Francisco Public Library. You can visit us at the main library fourth floor and may contact us at the email and our phone number provided here. We'll drop our homepage link in the chat. Here are some books available at SFPL by and about Shiplord and Outfarm. We'll post this list via Art, Music and Recreation Center blog in the chat. Enjoy it all for free at your library. Shiplord grew up in 1950s America, a place that has been a sometimes source of inspiration in his work as an artist. Trained as an architect, he was a founder, founding partner of Antfarm, with whom he produced the video art classics, media burn, and the eternal frame, as well as the public sculpture Cadillac Ranch and Amarillo, Texas, and the House of the Century outside Houston, Texas. His work crosses between documentary and experimental boundaries and moves between video photography and installation. Shiplord's work has been exhibited and published widely and is included in the collections of Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Modern, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the FRAC Center, the Pompadour Center, and the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive. He is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Film and Digital Media, UC Santa Cruz, and is also taught in architecture at CCA and Columbia University GSAPP. He lives in San Francisco and will post his website in the chat. This will be the rules. All participants will remain muted during the presentation and 10 to 15 minutes will be reserved at the end of the presentation for Chip to answer questions that are posted in the Q&A. Library related or other, please use chat. This presentation will be recorded. We have enabled auto transcription if you need closed captioning on your screen. You can remove it from your screen by clicking the CC button. Welcome Chip and thank you for being here and I'll stop sharing my screen and hand it over to you. Okay. Well thank you Stephanie. And thank you everyone for coming out on this cold, windy day in San Francisco. I know you didn't actually come out. I know that. I'm going to go right to sharing my screen and starting the presentation. I don't have a. A lot of wonderful introduction and. I appreciate it. Okay. This was a long about in the automobile 2023 version. And, you know, and in another sense that's an artist talk, and I'm going to show eight projects today. Doug was the co-founder of Ant Farm and he died in 2003. It was the National Black History Month and I wanted to start with this image. It's a shot from the series cars and owners that Doug and I did within sort of within Ant Farm without it being an Ant Farm project but this was shot in 1973 we were in Houston near the University of Houston. And this gentleman. We asked permission to take his picture which we did and you see it here was made into a postcard. And eventually became part of the cars and owners theories which is 160 35 millimeter slides. But Doug and I took we don't know which of us took any particular one but we're going to come back to that project. A little bit later. I'm going to start with some personal history I was born in 1944, and it was a year in which there were no cars manufactured in the US because the war. There was no war to within, you know, that was going on and all the manufacturing capacity of the automobile industry have been turned over to producing tanks and planes and other weaponry. When the war ended in 1945 it still took a few years for the automakers to come out with new models it took typically three years and for Ford it was introducing the 1949 Ford. And my dad bought a car about exactly this car. So I was just five years old when that car came into the family. And in 1949 Cadillac, it was advertised. Thus, and this is probably from a life magazine at the new standard of the world, of course standard of the world was a Cadillac model. So this was a new version of that. And in a way that was the introduction to a decade in which car styling. This is called power over the advertising of the cars and the creating sales incentives for various models. This is a 59 Cadillac also from a from a brochure. This isn't. This is also a 59 Cadillac it's interesting. This is an ad for body by Fisher. This is a vision of General Motors, and for some reason the illustrator cut off the engine, the front of the car, and there's no wheels it's being launched into space which I think is maybe has something to do with the Sputnik era, but it's, but it's the it's the tail fin era. And it wasn't just General Motors that was pursuing this idea but also Ford and Chrysler. And actually, in this ad. I don't know if you can read you probably can't read the text but it says that excerpt would say based on aerodynamic principles. And it says make a real contribution to the remarkable stability of these cars on the road. I don't think that's true. That's a 59 Dodge owned by a local collector. I'm going to jump forward a little bit forward in time in my personal history I 1962 I went to Tulane University School of architecture and I began studying architecture and in a magazine I saw the this rendering of the Boston City Hall, which was the winner of a competition. A young architecture firm Coleman McKenna one knows, there were actually three professors or two professors and a student at Columbia, they won the competition and it took six years for the building to be completed that happened to be the same duration it took six years to complete my training as an architect and of course, by the time I did graduate. I was a little bit less interested in being an architect but I, I got in my Volkswagen beetle and headed to California to participate in the Halpern workshop. This is a photo from taking it to see ranch. It was a collective workshop for dancers and architects, and I think to me it introduced the ideas that the city could be an object the city could be a score and moving through the city is the form of performance. And I'm going to summarize them in three lines the Halpern workshop. After though, it was a 30 day workshop so it was basically the month of July. And after the workshop. So I met him the previous fall when he came to Tulane on a lecture tour. He had graduated the year earlier, and he has some of his student work shown in progressive architecture magazine. And that was enough for him to get on the phone and call around and set up this lecture trip. And we stayed in touch over that time and he came out to San Francisco. And we were having conversations about alternatives on forms of architecture. And we described it to a friend who was visiting one night that we were going to be underground architects because you had in the city at that time underground newspapers underground films underground music. There was a sense of an underground culture emerging. And she immediately said, Oh, like the toy I had the ant farm. I have that as a kid. And there was a perfect metaphor and instantly not only did we have a name but we also have an official color which was green because and forms only came in green in those days. And what you see here is a rendering of the ant farm you had to send in a coupon to get your ants but the ants seem to be building more interesting biomorphic spaces below ground. And the buzz round we see a rather really conventional mid 20th century agrarian piece of a couple pieces of architecture. It's a good name for a band and probably that's what we really wanted to do is be a rock band. But none of us knew how to play any instruments. And at the time we didn't realize that that probably wouldn't have been a detriment to the success of the band. I wanted to just quote, Michael sorkin here on the naming of ant farm he said that calling their collaboration and farm immediately signaled that the work would be of a different order than that produce under the gray flannel imprimatur of a firm such as Skidmore Owens and Merrill. Who totally true. And, you know, today, many architectural firms try to find a name that is not simply the name of the partners. We were influential over the long haul in that sense. And the group expanded over the next few years. We taught at the University of Houston in 1969, and made friends with some of the students there who were like minded, and it led to after a total five years that's the founding but it led to a commission that became Cadillac Ranch in 1974. And it was this guy Stanley March three who we met in the at the end of 1973, returning from Texas back to California he invited us to visit. And we met him and as we were getting ready to leave he said would you, if you have an idea for a project I would, you know that I might do with you on interested. So we went back to California and then we sent him basically this blueprint, the original was a blueprint this is a reproduction. And what's interesting, you know, looking back on it now it's, I think Doug Michaels drew this but the section through the grave site, the architectural form, the section drawing the plan below it. There's a budget, then we budgeted for example, $3,000 to purchase 10 vehicles to fulfill this idea. It was the literal making in three dimensions of a diagram that we is seen in a book called the design of cars. And the three of us. In our case and Michael's had all shared this growing up obsession with automobiles. And in fact at one point we realized that our fathers only got as far as automobile in the hierarchy of the idea being first you buy the affordable Chevrolet then you go to Pontiac, then you go to. And I'm just never sure whether it was Buick or always. But in other words, our dads never got to the success level to own a Cadillac. And Stanley gave us a go ahead and said let's plan a trip on why don't you come down here to Amarillo, and we'll start buying cars for the Cadillac ranch. And then what you see here, a shot of me handing a check to a youth car salesman on the left. I think it's the left. And then the other shot I'm in a junkyard with two hands on two different model Cadillacs from the 50s the 58, and that was the one that was actually purchased in turquoise and a 55 is the other car. And once we had the 10 cars lined up and ready to go we started construction with the backhoe. Because the ground was very, very hard and on the site, the site is on technically on interstate 40 about eight miles west of the Amarillo city limits or, or it was at that time. If, if you can dig the 10 holes that are the same depth and the same width all you have to do is push the cars in, and they will line up. So we took a week to construct the sculpture. And then we had an opening reception party, which is was on the summer solstice in 1974. And this photo was taken. Then we didn't provide any explanation no signage no, you know, headstone that would have the credit so describe what it was. And that was Stanley Marsh's idea we agreed with it. So what you see in this picture taken a year later is the sort of the sense of the distance from the sculpture back to the highway there's actually a, a access road and then the interstate interstate 40. And you can see that the cars are in pretty good shape after one year. The glass is broken and these two cars but the paint is all original 1981. The graffiti is beginning. And you can see the pathway. There's been a number of visitors who have made a pathway out to Cadillac Ranch, and then 1984 the 10th anniversary. Basically up into this point in time, people would take out their car key and scratch into the paint, you know, either a message or a signature something like that and the, the idea of spray paint is kind of just beginning at this point in time. We never envisioned that we did have the hubcaps welded on because we could imagine people might steal hubcaps, but no other and we did weld the doors closed and so forth but already somebody has been kind of absconded with the, the trunk lid. There were 10th, 20th and 30th anniversary every 10 years on the summer solstice, but Stanley Marsh died in just before 2014, and that was the last party there. And over this period of time it was, what was interesting was that we had an agreement with Marsh and the agreement was this, the Marsh family would always own the property and the physical sculpture itself but the ant farm would own the image rights. So we had been engaged in trying to release the image rights, and since access was given to the properties for the public. It's really a public sculpture but it's privately owned or non private land. And by 2015 of the. So many people have been tagging it that you know here's. Here's somebody holding a slab of paint that has been peeled off one of the cars you can see the kind of thickness of the paint. And a couple of years later. We were contacted with by acne studio it's a design, a European design company and fashion retailer, and they wanted to do a photo shoot for which they paid a fee. And this is a shot of Cindy Crawford standing next to the 59 Cadillac which they also requested that it could we paint it black. And we said sure, why not. Cool. That was the project number one and number two media burn was done a few years later but also has a car at the center of the project. It also happens to be a 59 Cadillac, but I wanted to begin with this image because it shows that it was media burn was done before a live audience of invited and invited public. And I have a postcard that said, this postcard will admit a car load and the classic sort of drive and movie mode. And it was very simple to create, you know, this, essentially this image. This was a Diane Paul photo. And we had a press area set up, and sort of held the public back, and we populated the press area with many friends who were photographers but in this photo you can see the San Francisco Chronicle reporter on the far right another photographer. And so the car was at the center of it and it took about a year to customize and reconfigure the car which we had purchased the company car. And we actually bought it from somebody who was in the who do rhythm devils in. We bought it in 1973. A local band. And the idea was to make a version of the dream cars of the 50s. This is the firebird three from General Motors shown in front of the GM tech center. This shows was an early sketch January 1973 that the idea of the project was sort of all components were there although the model car that make of the car changed and I don't know any number reasons but the idea of integrating video and then making it a critique of the, like the monolith of the three, you know, television corporations ABC, NBC and CBS. Breaking that monolith, symbolically, naively, maybe. And the, the project then was taken once made. It was videotape. Incidentally, all the several video crews they were all volunteers, and as were the photographers. This is the John John as Turner photo that was made into a postcard. And the distribution of the project was by both videotape and edited videotape and also a postcard. The least expensive way to communicate through the mail. Eventually, more than 100,000 postcards were in distribution. And I don't know, three years ago. Steve side wrote this manuscript. It's about the making of an image, and it's very complete and tells the whole story in detail and that's readily available to be at the art book fair. The summer at Minnesota Street Project. And that's media burn the third project of the citizens time capsule was actually done the same year of 1975. It was done at our park in Lewis in New York, it's a public park. At that time, the, the curators that our park were inviting artists. There were a number of artists working in the area of using natural materials and, you know, doing site specific work. But the thing was our park had a rule that you came for residency and you made work but it couldn't be permanent work it would be you'd either take it with you, or it would be destroyed at the end of the summer. So we, we proposed a time capsule that would be in a late, maybe not so late model station wagon, and we would invite citizens of the area of Lewiston to make donations for the time capsule. And then, and ultimately we bought a Oldsmobile 67 I think Oldsmobile this the cruiser station wagon. It was a perfect vehicle because they had that sort of skylight, like a greyhound bus details and these 25 or so suitcases, which were on display for two weeks and Doug Michaels was sitting in a car table at our park inviting people to make donations. All all this moving towards varying the car, the time capsule as a way of circumventing the idea that the work would disappear at the end of the summer. In other words, the art park curators accepted this idea that it wouldn't be visible during its plan to be a 25 year entombment. And we wanted to come back to our park in the year 2000 and and and bring it up. And that was the concept. This is a photo of the citizens who showed up for the closing event, September 15 1975, and a detailed shot of how the suitcases were filled, and then use as a way to categorize the articles. So, so you've got, you know, over the counter drugs and cigarettes and condoms in the front row and then survey from a newsstand and souvenirs of the bicentennial the following year. And because we had to go out and commercially stop the map what the citizens donated, we went to a Kmart. So, after some speeches alone, the mayor came. The car was. This is part of the terrain of our park it was, we didn't have to lower the car into a tomb that could be dug into a hillside and that way the car could be even even possibly driven although I think it was just pushed into the site. And then a kind of roofing repair material was applied over the car and the two cases were wrapped in two plastic garbage bags and put in the car. And there were other precautions taken for the longevity to protect the vehicle until the year 2000. But, you know what happened was when 2000 rolled around there was no interest in unearthing the citizens time capsule so it remains underground to this day. So now I'm going to show some posts and farm works. This is my Honda 600 coup from self portrait 1977. And I had also done the drawing on the left list of cars. I've owned so far was 18 at that point I was approaching my 40th birthday. And last year I thought it'd be interesting to go back and then update it with us with a, you know, similar formatted drawing. So the fourth project is the Chevrolet training film. The remake and of the project that I did just after the end of and Farmer 1978 with Phil Garner. He then changed his name to Pippa and changed his pronouns from male to female. And but at that time he was the, he was also a car obsessed artists and quite a good actor performer really. And so he played the salesman. The remake of a film that we purchased the Almeida flea market it was a film that was made to train young Chevrolet salesman and would be distributed by General Morris who, you know, all the local dealerships. We did several live performances in San Francisco Los Angeles and Houston that I can remember. The buyer. I played the buyer of the car and the original film. It was an amateur actor who played the buyer and it was an actual salesman named Bob Warner. And we were invited in 1981 to come to the Whitney Museum and do it as do a live performance and then also an installation where the video. The videotape live performance and then the video tape play for another two weeks. But while we were there we did the research calling up the original Chevrolet dealership within Hicksville Long Island. And Phil Gardner was married at the time his wife Nancy Reese called them and asked if Bob Warner was still selling cars there. And somebody said well I think he's moved I think he's selling catalog now in Manhattan. He moved up but we were able to contact him and invite him to come to the Whitney Museum and see the remake of that film his only film that he performed in 1961. That's the Chevrolet training film the remake. As cars and owners. A kind of casual obsession to start documenting friends with their cars. And these two shots are from 1972. The metal and archman was a client. We were designing and building a house for her outside of Houston at the time. He was one of the owners of one of the workers on that project. Chip Lord and Doug Michaels. Doug always liked to have a suit and be the play the role of the straight guy in the group. He was far from it. But what was sort of a casual project to just document friends and acquaintances. And realize well it's maybe it's more than that you know maybe it should be a specific photo series. And these are two shots I took after the end event farm in the early 80s. Of course Spain Rodriguez the San Francisco underground comic artists. Susan subtle, who passed away a couple of years ago with her climate valiant. She I think even introduced me to Spain connections in that photo so it's 160 images I'm just showing the samples. This is under photo my T bird at the sculpture garden of the Berkeley art museum. For the premiere of the film motorists and then dog in the late 80s in Los Angeles with his Volvo project six save the planets. And catalog ranch derivatives project and in the photo here Peter Morton is flanked by Hudson Marquez myself and Doug Michaels, and he called us one day, and we had not been working together for almost 10 years at that point. And he said I'm building a new hard rock cafe in Houston I'd like to commission you to do an artwork with the front of it. The Cadillac branch had been perceived as being a negative idea, you know, very the gas guzzlers and although that may be part of it, it's not all of it, but it led us to think well if we're going to do something for the hard rock we're going to do something optimistic, you know, in nature, and the only car that you could imagine being launched into space is the 61 62 63 Ford Thunderbird model. We've seen a conceptual sketch on the left of all this project was pretty much built just exactly as the sketch portrayed it. Hard Rock Cafe is known for marketing its t shirts and sweatshirts and various things. And do you think that a display case in the foot of the sculpture might have those products in it but instead we wanted to fill it with petroleum based products including STP tide and other laundry, you know, petroleum based laundry products. And we, we luckily had a friend who was working for an architect that was the local architect for the project and it was able to coordinate with them for all the architectural details and get the project built in 1986. And then capitalism being what it is the hard rock definitely was sold to new owners they wanted to move it to downtown center of Houston and the building was abandoned and as I point a sign company came out and took down. It was considered a sign in 19, around 1992 I don't know the exact date. End of STP. The seventh project motorists. In some ways is a adaptation from a book that I did the text I wrote it in 1976, it was published by EP Dutton. They made the mistake of placing it in the automotive section of bookstores it was more of a cultural analysis of the way the automobile automobile has shaped the American landscape over the 20th century, which was not over three quarters of the way over at that point. I'll, of course, to make a narrative so based on what was a nonfiction critical analysis book or essay meant that there had to be a character at the center so the motorists played by character actor Richard Marcus you see him on the right here is driving this car across the US and talking to himself, or entertain himself with memories and thoughts and things that go back to his childhood and lots of different things. And that's the, that's the structure of motorists. There were, I had written a 20 page screenplay but there was a lot of improvisation involved on top of that. And, for example, the car actually broke down when we were in Arizona, had to have a gas, the gas pump replace the fuel pump. And so we built that into the film and we videotape the tow truck pulling into the nearest town. And so I'm going to go on to the eighth and final project. And for our media van version, oh eight time capsule. It was a collaboration, of course, Doug Michaels having died in 2003. And this work was curated by Rudolph Freely, as a woman. Shortly after he arrived from Germany, I met him at an exhibition at CCA. And there was a flyer for the featured the media van in a, in the train. And Rudolph said, does the media van still exist because I'm, I have an idea I have an exhibition I'm working on it might be, I might be able to show it in some context. And I said, well, you know, it might still exist. I'm not sure. And it didn't. But we had done these projects in the 70s. And this project was like an interview project for related to the mayors. People running for mayor of San Francisco in probably 1972 or 74, I'm not sure which. And this project was also connected to the idea of the media van but it was called the truck felt network master plan. The idea being that in the counterculture so many people seem to want to be nomadic and live in in vehicles or modify vehicles that they could live in and actually travel around the North American continent. And so this is a basically a recreational vehicle park proposal, but one that has offers services of a community of a commons, including, you know, some sort of visionary ideas. This is a 24 hour video projector. These trucks stops, this network of these trucks up to be connected by video link. They would have daycare centers and access to computers and other tools. And that was the idea it was, of course, never built, and maybe never meant to be built. But as part of that we did. We did go out on the road in the media van in 1970. And Curtis designed this map that you see of the US the truck stop network map to look like a place, place map. And it actually has specific names of groups and things we wanted to visit along the way. And the van itself was outfitted as, you know, a mobile TV studio well with one single Sony quarterback Jim mayor showing here may he rest in peace. And we did have the ability to play back in the van. Or theoretically even edit, but we didn't really edit very much. While traveling. So, that's suggested that if we were going to revisit in 2008, the idea of the media van, maybe, maybe we no longer have to actually physically move around, maybe because we can do it so much with over the internet. And the iPhone had just come out in April or May 2008. So we decided, okay, we're going to create the stationary vehicle that fulfill some of the same functions the the gathering of video information the exhibition of video information, and it's a place for people to gather and interact. This is this is some early sketches, and Rudolph was a was the curator but he was a kind of partner in designing the way this project proceeded I think. The first thing the first gesture we did was to remove the engine the wheels anything having to do with the fossil fuel economy. And so it becomes more of a neutral box of it's covered with this roofing tar, just to indicate the archival nature of it is something from the past, but it's also something of the future. The center, if you climb into the media van and it was the exhibition was called the art of participation so the idea was, yes, you get in the van and interact with the media hooker, which basically had an animation showing you plug plug in your handheld device. And the media hooker would grab a file from your let's say you had an iPhone, it would grab a file it would show it to you, it would become part of a stream of other images. And then it went print out a receipt and the receipt was a low resolution, low resolution image as well as the file name and date and, and so forth. So creating a digital time capsule in that sense and it accumulated over 2000 files between November 2008 and February 2009. And of course we didn't really know how to preserve it as a time capsule. So we, we did some research we talked about this we thought oh maybe exhibiting it is one way to preserve the idea of it. It's an opportunity to do that at Southern exposure gallery and opening their new space in October. So what you're seeing here is a transparency that displays every file that had been collected by the media hooker hooker to channels of video one being the discovery of the van that was a fiction and the other being. You know, resting place in a co location facility, also a fiction. And at that time, it had a media hooker had the capability of grabbing music files as well as picture files. So it was able to play be put in playback mode, and create a slide show that would have a music track of a company match. So, originally, the media van was kind of an exhibition space so we turned the, the placemat into a menu for DVD, and you could a viewer could select along this road, any of these titles, and view them. And this is a shot from the Walker Art Center show hippie modernism. Castile Hilton is the video plane, and maybe seven or eight or 10 people could squeeze into the van and watch all this, what was then archival, historic video. The media van contains its own archives and these are the title several of the titles that are available in the media van for viewing. So, um, there, there were six exhibitions San Francisco MoMA in 2008 through a final exhibition in 2016. So the project had a duration of eight years, and for that exhibition at Pioneer Works in Brooklyn. The media van was housed inside a made in situ inflatable structure. So you had to first enter the inflatable then you could enter the media van and make a donation. This little exhibition of some of the other and farm time capsules including the Simpsons time capsule. But each time at each location, the media van had collected these files and we realized that each time we would outfit a hard drive to collect the digital files and those that medium, they keep getting smaller and smaller. When the catalog came out and the catalog wasn't ready in time for the exhibition but with post exhibition. We decided why don't we put the time capsule itself in the binding of the catalog and that's what you see here the diagram, so that the buyer of this limited edition version of the catalog becomes a custodian of the digital time capsules. And that is the long goodbye to the automobile. But wait, there's an epilogue. And the tales and era, which is where we began the 1950s. This is the symbol of the end of that idea. It's a 1958 Packard Hawk hard top coupe only 588 were made it was the last Packard model ever. And I went on to do other work because I got interested in the climate crisis that we were obviously looking at. This is Venice underwater and these are a series of video works. That was 2013. I had read Elizabeth Colbert, Sixth Extinction 2014. And that same year, I was invited to attend the Anthropocene campus in Berlin. And kind of realizing, you know, now maybe I like trees more than cars. Maybe I should be looking at trees rather than cars. And this book is a fantastic account of a by a woman who is an expert in the subject, but it begins from her childhood experience where she was introduced to Celtic forms of wisdom in native Ireland. Then I went on and made a video work about Miami Beach, Miami Beach elegy suggesting it's not going to be there forever. This is a few years, of course, before the condominium collapsed. And I'm now completing a version of 15 minutes in Phoenix. So, just a brief view of some current or recent work. But I'm going to end here. And these are places you can find more work. My video works are available on Vimeo. You can follow and farm on Facebook, my site, chip lord.net. And of course, I'm on Instagram also. Now, we're going to open the floor to two questions. Right. Thanks Chip. That was great. So Chip I'm seeing the first one I'm seeing is a question about how, how was the van moved. That's a great question. You know, once we took the wheels off, it had to go on to dollies. And that was how it was moved so it was moved by hand by pushing on dollies or on a truck. And you know that that underlined the fact that it was now an artwork and not a vehicle. And I see Serena Warner former student of mine. I mean, while we're waiting for the questions come in, I have a, I have a question I'm curious about the time capsule that this to cruiser I know it was supposedly going to be undug in 2000. Are there any other plans or thoughts of digging in the future. You know, it's interesting because in 2000, they were very difficult. They were not communicative at all. But recently, I heard from a curator in the area and he sent me a magazine article was a kind of a small release or small circulation, literary magazine, but there was an interview with the current and new director of art park. And she mentioned the services time capsule that she actually says in this article, we're going to bring it up. These days it will be on earth. That's a very exciting development and I immediately sent her an email and made contact and but it's not that's not a plan but it may and they happen. And it's going to be great because the, you know, the previous and farm time councils, included one that was a refrigerator. In 1972, and it had videotapes in it. The contemporary artist museum in Houston was opening a new building. And as part of the, the festivities they commissioned us to videotape the each of the artists and make interviews with them. And that went into a refrigerator with other things. Well, we, we never specified how that refrigerator should be stored and it was in the building in the storage area. Several years later, when there was a flash flood in Houston. And there was a, the loading ramp went down one flight to the, not really a basement or partially submerged space which was a storage area of the museum. So the time capsule floated or found in it. And the, then it was taken to Marilyn Oshman's house she rescued it, and it sat there for several years, then it was rescued again. And you can see the opening of that time capsule on. So if you still have a DVD player on the ansarm video DVD, this was made for the in association with the Berkeley Art Museum exhibition 2004. Okay, we have another question in here. Vivian asked, did you continue architecture practice among all these projects or transfer over to academia entirely. Well, there were several architectural projects done. During that form period of time, and one was a remodeling of a house on Telegraph Hill, it was very small project actually remodeling a kitchen and then after the end of our person and I did another kitchen remodeling for a family and put some of the kites and I recently ran into that client and she said, you know, we, we love that kitchen. It was done in the early 80s and still filling you so yes, there were but you know I always think it was a business plan for continuing. And there were a number of experimental architecture groups, you know, the coming out of the 70s, or during the 70s. And only one of them was able to make that transition I think into a kind of commercial architectural practice. And that wasn't that fun. But Curtis is available for kitchen remodeling so if anybody out there is interested you can easily find me on online. Okay. Cheryl's asking, are you interested now in what cutting edge architects are doing or do you still find the fine arts more interesting and possibly more important for our future. Yes. I had the opportunity to teach a class at CCA in the architecture program in 2019 it was a optional studio and I co-taught it with a former student of mine he had been a student undergrad at UC Santa Cruz and he went on to Harvard and got his degree there. And that was very exciting to do that and be engaged with this new generation of architecture students. We, we gave them the problem to design a monument to species extinction could be one particular species or multiple species. And the idea was to do it on the site of the parking lot at the ballpark. It's a huge parking lot as you may know, but during a month into the project the Giants announced their development plan. Probably the only available site was also what was going to be a parking garage so we told the students. Now you have to design a monument to species extinction as part of a parking garage, which I think is a wonderful idea. But there were some great, great projects that came out of that. So, yeah. I'm not totally up to date on the architecture world or the avant-garde architectural world, but I'm still engaged to so much that. And the, and my co-teacher's name is Matt Waxman. Okay. Here's a comment by WU says the van would be a great parklet. Yeah. And Darlene asks enjoyed your video auto parts 1979 with you and Phil Garner was at the Bay Bridge you were driving on during the performance. That was called auto parts and it was done electronically we were sitting still and I think it was it was the Bay Bridge and the background that we're driving across. And I don't know it was more of an experiment in the technology but also misunderstanding of language I think Pippa is will be the subject of a one person show. It's been about a year from now, and she lives in Long Beach and has a gallery representation in LA and shows there periodically continues a form of her work which is kind of a critique of often of the automobile. And yes, I would, I would be interested in documenting other versions of bidding goodbye to the automobile here in San Francisco. Actually I ironically just a few days ago I got an email from somebody in France, who was writing me to tell me tell me about his project with which was he had owned a Ford Fiesta in Europe for many years and it could no longer pass inspection. And he decided he would return it to Detroit. So, he had not seen motorists, but there were so many kind of parallels between this project he was engaging in at the present moment and, and what motorists was about which was, which was really selling this classic American car to a Japanese buyer. At the end of motorists you see the buyer this young Japanese man played by Toshio Nuki, driving the Thunderbird through the streets of Tokyo, which we couldn't afford to actually send the car over there so we shot it in China town, and tried to edit around you know the Chinese characters on the signage behind him. It's available on Vimeo for full length version which is 60 minutes. I have a question from Dorian says hi as an artist, how do you feel about being critical about cars. I think about the paradox of Diego Rivera, when Henry Ford or his son, who ordered him to draw the mural in the Detroit Institute of Art and his strange position between being critical against cars, and at the same time answer the order from Ford. That's Dorian is the French man who I just mentioned. And after I got his email I sent him invitation to watch this talk it was lined up pretty well. I'm interested in you know complicated ideas and not providing simple answers but I do think that the 20th century belong to the automobile and obviously the 21st century will not. I don't believe that electrification in the kind of numbers of world of worldwide automobile use is going to solve climate change. And I want to mention the name river simple as a car manufacturer in Great Britain, and they're working on the assumption that the entire car should be recyclable. And the company that manufactures it should have the responsibility of recycling it, and it will be hydrogen powered vehicle the prototype is very small. So it's not going to solve all the transportation issues. But I think that's that's it's a model of where we should go. And it's going to mean also reshaping lifestyle or not. It's going to mean stopping on a plane to go somewhere for a weekend whenever you feel like it, because there are costs to that kind of movement. The energy costs are huge. So, that's my two cents on that but, you know the catalog ranch will have its 50th anniversary. In 2024. And you're all invited. It'll be on June 21 at catalog ranch 2024. Well we'll see you there chip. Thanks for the invite. And thank you everybody for tuning in with us today. I don't mind I do actually have a question for you chip, clearly have a huge body of work and I'm just curious. And you couldn't fit it all within the hour presentation today and I'm glad to see that some of the inflatable was shown in the end where it was encompassed with the van so that was nice to see. I'm just curious though why you decided to leave out house of the century, which is one of my very favorites, and I thought the, the eternal frame was really interesting as well. Any reason why you just did not included or just too much. Well because this was more about the automobile at the center of the project and so the house of the century is architecture. And, you know, I can obviously I can do a separate presentation about architecture. And, and the eternal frame seems to have a car that at the center of it but I think it's really more about reenactment and revisiting that catholic event. So, and it's a, it's a collaborative work to so it's a little bit more complicated to present and that's why those two were, were not shown today. That makes perfect sense. Let's see Stacy has a question would you be interested in documenting other versions of bidding goodbye to the automobile here in SF. She does leave her email contact if you would like to do so, which we can forward that to you chip if you can't see that. And, and Morgan asked what is most important in life. There you go. That's a good answer is for us chip we want to know. Yo, that's Mr natural. trees maybe trees right. trees. That's right trees. Go out and kiss a tree today, or hug a tree. That would be my advice. That's what's most important. There's so many, so many things are important in terms of the climate emergency that we're now seeing. And, you know, there's so many entry points to do or artwork that questions and and contributes to the dialogue around climate change. Yeah, so I can't be more specific than that. That's, that's the subject. And Good luck with that too. Okay, we'll take this final question here from Nancy. She's asking if you've ever had any connection or interest in mobile projects going on in the UK or Europe, including Arcagram and the interaction arts trust in London. Arcagram of course was very influential when I was a student. And that was the beginning. I think the their publication, although somehow they're the specific archer ground which is the name of the publication initially became the name of the group that never got to my library in New Orleans. But still, the images that the scene that they were creating, you know, we're so far ahead of their time, you know, floating screens and mobility walking city is a conceptual ideas. And then so I think, you know, we were among the number of architectural say, let's say alternative architecture groups that were sort of following in the footsteps of Arcagram. And I like the things that we, you know, diverted more away from architecture than that they did they were still on. I'm sitting at drafting tables, I believe, but not a critique, you know, I know that all those partners have gone on to have architectural careers either an architectural education or in building so you know, and, you know, now it's much easier to follow, let's say what's going on in the UK than it was in this in the 60s and 70s. Long time ago. Okay. Thank you so much Chip. Yeah, that was lovely. Thank you so much for being here. And thank you everybody for joining us. This is, this has been recorded so and we'll push that out to all registrants at some point and probably uploaded on to our YouTube channel. And Chip has put his contact or contact information or his, I'm sorry, your website. If you guys want to explore further and do please come in and or place holds on his books and media that we have at SFEL. So, thanks again. Thank you Stephanie and I'm very easy to find online so you can you can get my, you can find me on Facebook and find my email very easily. Okay. All right, take care. Okay, bye bye.

The story of Dr. Kildare. Whatsoever house I enter, there will I go for the benefit of the sick. Whatsoever things I see or hear concerning the life of men, I will keep silence thereon, counting such things to be held as sacred trusts. I will exercise my arts only for the good. The story of Dr. Kildare, starring Lou Ayers and Lionel Barrymore. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer brought you those famous motion pictures. Now this exciting, heartwarming series is heard on radio. In just a moment, the story of Dr. Kildare. First, your announcement. A lump of grey-white buildings planted deep in the heart of New York. A nerve center of medical progress, where great minds and skilled hands wage man's everlasting battle against death. Blair General Hospital, where life begins, where life ends, where life goes on. Have you seen Dr. Kildare anyplace? No, I haven't. He doesn't seem to be in the hospital. And he isn't out on an emergency either, I checked that. Wait a minute, Lesby. I'll bet I know just where he is. Lesby, look at that big crane. Isn't that something? I should say it is. And look at the way those girders are being lifted up just as though there weren't any... Kimmy Kildare, you have no business down here. You're on duty at the hospital, and no one at the hospital has known where to find you. Well, I just walked down here for a minute to watch. Does anyone want me? They certainly have. Who? Me. You? Yes, me. And when I want you, I'm supposed to be able to find you. Yes, Doctor. There goes that crane again. Look at that. You know, as long as I've been at the hospital, no one has had to go looking for me during working hours. And another thing... Well, well, well. Here are my two naughty boys. Well, good morning, Doctor Kildare. Good morning. Now, where should we be right this minute? Come on, Kildare. I told you that you should be... I hope you aren't teaching Doctor Kildare bad habits, Doctor Kildare. You hope I'm not? Every time a new building has gone up anywhere in the neighborhood, Doctor Kildare, we've had the same trouble with Doctor Kildare. He's like a big, overgrown boy. Can't keep away. Oh, that's not true. That's ridiculous. I never... Now, now, back to work. Come on. So you've had this kind of trouble with Doctor Kildare before, haven't you? If I hadn't come along just when I did, Heaven only knows how long he would have stood there. Oh, pickles. You talk as though I were a delinquent minor. Well, dear fellow, as head of the hospital, I must administer the scoldings, as well as the pads on the head when they're needed. The patient just arrived for you. I put him in your office. A Mr. Mallory. Oh, thanks, Molly. I'll go right in. Now, you say it worked, Doctor Kildare. Don't you let Doctor Gillespie lead you astray any longer? Oh, fiddles, indeed. I'll do my best to keep Doctor Gillespie from leading me astray, Doctor. That's a good fellow. Oh, Mr. Mallory? Yeah. Oh, I'm Doctor Kildare. Oh. So now, won't you? Oh, thanks. What seems to be the trouble? I haven't been feeling very good. My wife's been after me to come to... Well, tell me about it. Well, I haven't had much appetite. I get these pains in my stomach. Severe pains? Yeah, pretty bad. When did they start? Have the pains become worse as time passed or remained about the same? My wife kept taking my temperature, but I didn't have any. Then a few days ago, I got this sort of tingling sensation in my wrists and hands. It's gotten tougher and tougher for me to use them. Oh, that's so. I've been trying to go right on working, but the day before yesterday, I kept getting dizzy. So I went home. Oh, I'm thirsty all the time, too. I see. Well, Mr. Mallory, would you go in the next room over there and then undress? I want to examine you. Yeah, sure. And I'd like to have Doctor Gillespie examine you, too. He's a fine diagnostician. Okay, whatever you say. Oh, my wife is sitting out in the waiting room. Tell her I'll be a little wilder. Of course. Uh, Mrs. Mallory? Yes. Oh, I'm Dr. Kildare. Your husband's going to be a little wilder, and we're going to examine him. Do you think it's anything serious, Doctor? Oh, it's nothing for you to worry about. Tell me, what does your husband do? He's a painter. I see. I wanted him to come to see a doctor before this, but he's so stubborn about things like that. Have you noticed any change in his disposition lately? Oh, I should say I have. Constantly irritable and depressed. Of course, he's been feeling so rotten. Yes, I understand that. The foreman called him in last week and told him he'd been making mistakes that had cost the company money. And, well, if he made any more, they were going to have to let him go. Well, that's because of the way he's been feeling. Now, it won't last. Where's he been working? On the building project across the street. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, Dr. Gillespie, this is Mrs. Mallory. How do you do, Doctor? I do, Mrs. Mallory. I wonder if you'd have a look at Mrs. Mallory's husband with me, Dr. Gillespie. I'd like your opinion. I'd be glad to. His abdominal pains are localized and relieved by deep pressure. Mr. Mallory, will you open your mouth again, please? Yeah. You see, there's absolutely no sign of any bluish line around his mouth and gums. It certainly isn't. And that's what's astounding. Oh, why, Dr. Gillespie? Well, you have all the other indications of plummism. But, plummism? And lead poisoning. You say you're a painter, Mr. Mallory? Yeah. Do you always wear a protective mask when you're spraying? Yeah, I do. Well, it may not be lead poisoning, of course. Mr. Mallory, suppose you spend the night in the hospital and take some blood tests. Okay. Now, by the way, what's your foreman's name? Farrell. Sid Farrell. Well, while you're taking the tests, I think I'll have a talk with him. He may be able to help us. Mr. Farrell, I'm Dr. Kildare from Blair General Hospital. This is Dr. Gillespie. Well, how do you do? Well, what can I do for you? We're pretty busy here, as you can see. I won't keep you for a moment. We have one of your workmen under observation at the hospital. Well, what do you want me to do about it? Send him flowers? We wanted the help from you, Mr. Farrell. And unless you want to have a lot more of your workmen, I'll say you better give us whatever help you can. All right. All right. Which one of the men is at the hospital? There's a man named Gordon Mallory. I might have known. Worst man on the job, always making mistakes. Well, maybe he had a good reason for his mistake. Mistakes cost money. We haven't got time to nurse along anyone that can't do his job and do it right. I was going to pay him off at the end of the week anyhow. If a man's ill, isn't his fault if he don't do a good job? Ill. That big bruiser? We could make two of most of the men working here. Well, let me tell you something, Mr. Farrell. If Mallory has lead poisoning, which is what we think he has, then it may be your fault he's sick. A foreman's supposed to look out for the health of his men. Look, doctor, I'm very busy, and I haven't got time to stand around chewing the fat about what my duties are. I know my job. To get this building finished, your job is to take care of sick people. You take care of Mallory, and I'll take care of my business. But don't you see you should be taking preventive measures of some sort for the protection of your other work. My workmen are all right. If you'll excuse me, I have to get back to work. Hey, watch where you swing that frame! Uh, come on, Jimmy. We aren't going to accomplish anything here. I guess you're right. No, no, what do I see here? I thought we were on our honor to stay at our jobs. We're down here on a case, Carol. One of the workmen's in the hospital. Oh, well, of course. That puts a slightly different face on the matter. And while we're on this subject, what are you doing down here? Oh, I was dust-passing by. Dust-passing by? I think that whole building project could bear a little investigation. Dr. Kildare, please. Not on hospital time. I'll bet you anything you care to name. Before the week is over, we get some more of those workmen in the hospital. It doesn't give two cents for the welfare of anyone. I'm afraid you're right. I'm not sure if Mallory does have lead poisoning. We should learn that from those blood tests tomorrow. I got so nervous when they phoned and said you wanted me to come over. Sit down, Mrs. Mallory. There's nothing to be upset about. No, no, your husband's going to be all right. We have found out that your husband does have lead poisoning. It's a chronic type, which has developed over a long period of time. Can you cure it? Oh, sure. Of course we can. We simply put him through a process of diet and treatment that removes the lead. Diet? Yeah, yeah. You see, food with a calcium content helps retain the storage of lead and the bones. So we'll put him on a high phosphorus diet and that'll help him get rid of it. He'll have the things like meat and liver and potatoes, rice and bananas. Oh, it's not a difficult diet. And then, of course, there's certain medications. He's going to have to stay in the hospital for three or four weeks, so... Four weeks? Yeah, it seems like a long time to you, but it is necessary. Well, it's just that financially things have been a little difficult for us. But we'll manage. Doctor, how did he get it? I haven't been able to figure that out yet. I do believe that the construction company is responsible for your husband's illness, and yet he said he didn't have his mask on all the time, and that should have given him adequate protection. Yes, a real puzzler, all right. Yes? There's an emergency case in the receiving room, Dr. Kildare. One of the workers from the building project. What happened? I don't know. They said he suddenly was seized with convulsions. He's delirious now. Oh, come on. This man has a bluish line along his gum margins, all right. Look at that. This is an acute case of lead poisoning, all right. Don't inject magnesium sulfate right away. I have it right here, Doctor. Thank you, Molly. That's fine. There. That should quiet him. Now then, I want him to have lavage with 1% sodium sulfate, egg-albumin drinks, and calcium gluconate intramuscularly. Yes, Doctor. By the way, what does this man do on a construction job? They said he's a welder. A welder? It doesn't add up. Well, let's go back down to that building project and have another talk with the foreman, and this time let's inspect the whole place. We'll find out what's happening to those men, and Ferrell, or no one else, is going to stop us. Just a moment. We will return to the story of Dr. Kildare. But whatever it is, I haven't got time to play games with you. I'm working against time as it is. We're already behind schedule on this business, and you keep coming down here and interrupting me all the time. Now, I see here, Mr. Ferrell, you've got a job to do okay. So have we. But two men from this outfit are in the hospital with lead poisoning, and it's our job to find out why. And also to see that more of them don't end up the same way. Watson didn't look too good when I took him on the job. I shouldn't have hired him. I can't understand you, Mr. Ferrell. Why don't you want to help your men? I haven't got any more time to waste talking, Dr. Good... whatever your name is. Do you realize that Watson might have died? In fact, he would have died if science hadn't only recently discovered antidotes for poisoning of this sort before in cases like his when a man had convulsions and delirium, he died within a few days. Watson has this cerebral form of plummism. All right. What do you want me to do about it? I want to inspect the places where both Maori and Watson work. I'm not going to have you walking around bothering my men. We won't bother anyone. We simply want a chance to observe their working conditions. No, I'm not going to start anything like that. Mr. Ferrell, if you don't permit us to inspect this building, we're going to take the case to the State Board of Health and have them inspect it. There's nothing going on here that would concern the Board of Health. I'm sorry, but we think there is. All right, all right. Look around if you want to. There you go. Show these two gentlemen over the whole layout, will you? This is where Maori works, huh? That's right. They're not wearing protective masks, all right. Well, I have to. The company wouldn't let a man work without a mask. Oh, lunchtime, huh? Well, for some of the men. It's a rush job. They only take 30 minutes for lunch and shifts. The men eat right here on the spot, do they? Yeah. They don't lose any time that way. What are those men doing? They burn the rivet holes. Oh, yes. This is where Watson works. Oh. How can they sit here and eat in all this heat? Oh, they get used to it. Certainly must. I couldn't take it for very long. Well, come on. Let's get out of here. Well, much from there, did I? There, except for those fast lunches. But eating a fast lunch wouldn't give a man lead poisoning. No, it certainly wouldn't. But something did, and that's what we've got to find out. There's a wide difference between Watson's case and Maori's. Yes. Yes, Watson had lead encephalopathy, caused by excessive exposure to fumes. His case is acute. Maori's isn't. Maori wore a mask. Yes. And that mask should have protected him completely. Now, what about Watson? Well, let's go up and see him as soon as we get back. He ought to be improved enough by now to be able to talk to us. Mr. Watson? What hit me? Lead. Somebody threw it at me? No. You did this yourself. You crazy. You don't think I'd slip myself on that key, do you? Well, you did, son. Pretty hot where you work, isn't it? Yeah, but you get used to it. How do you feel now? A little unsteady. I got the dark ganas metallic taste in my mouth. Oh, well, that'll pass. How long have you been working on this job? Oh, about a month. Where'd you work before? I just wound up a job in Brooklyn. You did the same sort of work over there, huh? Yeah, yeah. Burned rivet holes. That was a rough job, too. No kidding. Tell me what happened to me. Well, I can't tell you. You've had a pretty severe attack of lead poisoning. You see, you were constantly exposed to the fumes of burned red lead. Of course, you were only wearing a welder's hood, and you weren't exposed to what caused your attack. Well, I guess that'll teach me. What happens to me now? Well, you will stay here in the hospital for a short period of treatment. But you'll be all right. Well, we've got a buddy of yours here for the same job. Yeah, I know. Mallory. Nice guy. In a day or so, we'll put you both in the same room so you can have someone to talk to. Thanks, son. I'd like that. Now, you rest. Take it easy. We'll be back to see you a little later. Oh, here you are. What about the case from the building project? Another case? An emergency? No, this one walked in under his own steam. I put him in your office, Dr. Gillespie. His name's Farrell. Pressure hurts, Teddy. After you left, I got hold of a book on lead poisoning and read up on it. It'd be pretty serious at that, can it? It's a very serious matter, Mr. Farrell. What are you going to do about me? I don't know. You suggest, Dr. Gillespie? I've been turning the matter over in my mind, Dr. Kildare. You'll have to put me through that deletting process, won't you? I don't think that would help in your case. Do you, Dr. Gillespie? No, I'm afraid not, Dr. Kildare. You mean nothing can be done to help me? None of the antidotes for lead poisoning will do a thing. Why not? Because you don't have lead poisoning. I don't? You've got all the symptoms. Cute abdominal pains, weakness, dizziness. Those are also the symptoms of acute indigestion, Mr. Farrell. That's all that's wrong with you. Acute indigestion. You've got a bellyache, Mr. Farrell. You sure of that? Positive. I'll put on your clothes. We want to have a little talk with you. Fortunately, both of your men are getting well. With a little cooperation from you, I think we can prevent any more of them from becoming sick. If you've been reading about lead poisoning, you know how serious it is. Yes. You know, I must admit, I owe both of you doctors an apology. Now, Mr. Mallory has a temporary paralysis in his wrists and hands, but as soon as the de-ledding process is completed, he'll be given massage and exercise, and he should recover pretty quickly. Do you know what caused Mallory's illness? It couldn't have been the fumes because he wore a mask. Well, that's right. That's the problem. Dr. Kildare and myself. But we finally figured it out. Mallory ate his lunch right where he worked. While he was eating, other men were spraying. Over a long period of time, he was exposed to the gradual amounts of fumes and absorbed enough to cause the poisoning. Did this just happen on my job? No, no. This happened over a period of about three years. Mallory always ate close to the job. It never occurred to him. Not to. You talked to all the men about it right away. Watson's case is a little different. He was overcome by the fumes from the burned paint, and his illness is much more serious than Mallory's. Absorbed lead is transferred in the bloodstream and may be found in the liver, the spleen, the kidneys. It's a great threat to the tissues. We have to force the bones to store the lead in order to prevent damage to the brain tissues. Can you do that? A little complicated to explain, but we can. We'll be able to help both men. Well, what can I do for the protection of my workman? For one thing, you can see that any men you hire are given a physical to find out whether they've already absorbed any lead in their systems. Because if they have, then you're running the risk of lead poisoning. I see. And you should insist that all your men be examined regularly every three months. Tell them always to drink a lot of milk. Well, I sure will. I never realized my men were in any real danger. I didn't want to baby them, but... Well, I'll watch out for this now. I promise you that. I'm sure you will, Mr. Farrell. And we'll be around to see that you do, Mr. Farrell. I did not check up on you, really, but frankly, we'd like an excuse to come down and watch the work. It's fascinating. From now on, you're more than welcome. So long. Bye. Bye. Well, he turned out to be a pretty good Joe after all, didn't he? He certainly did, after we scared him to death. Come in. Is there a discussion? Or can anybody get in? Anybody can get in, if their name happens to be Molly Bird. I've made all the arrangements to have Mr. Watson moved in with Mr. Mallory. Good. And Mrs. Mallory just went up to see her husband. Well, that's fine, Molly. Fine. Kill there. Have you any more patience to see? Not for about an hour. Why? Well, why don't we go into conference over a checkerboard? Well, you'll be perfectly safe. Dr. Karoo won't catch it. What makes you so positive? He's down watching the building project. What? Karoo down watching the building project? He certainly is. After all the lectures he gave us, well, what do you know? Kill there. Why don't we join Dr. Karoo? I was just about to suggest that, Dr. Gillespie. Come on. Let's see what our leader is doing with that king-sized tinker toy. In just a moment, we will return to the story of Dr. Kildare. Is it in things like this? Well, I'm not real. Leader, we see, but am I right? No, I mean I'm not really here. I'm just passing by on my way to the hospital. That's where I really am. Oh, and my way to the hospital. Well, that makes everything perfectly clear, doesn't it, Dr. Kildare? Now, see here. You boys don't think for a moment that I'd come down here when I should be at the hospital? Oh. Oh, no. Oh, look at that crane go. Isn't that something? It certainly is. The biggest crane I've ever seen, that really is something. You know, when I was a boy, I was one, you know. That's the kind of job I wanted. Do you know, Dr. Karoo, we all did. I think you're right. And it's because of the boy each of us was, and still is, inside, that we're down here right now. You may be right, Dr. Gillespie. Oh, he is right. That's exactly the right diagnosis, Doctor. Exactly the right diagnosis. Dr. Kildare, starring Lou Ayers and Lionel Barrymore. This program was written by Gene Holloway and directed by William P. Russo. Original music was composed and conducted by Walter Schuman. Supporting cast included Eleanor Audley, Ted Osburn, Dick Simmons, Tony Barrett, Jack Petruzzi, and Lillian Bayef. Dick Joy speaking.

Welcome to the Wednesday weekly webinar and today's webinar will feature Chandra Zeman-Bulinski as well as Julie Wagendorf. Before we get started, I'm going to introduce you to a couple of things. I am, by the way, Julie Gardner-Robinson. I'm a food nutrition specialist here on campus. I've been working with all these great people in setting up ten webinars. This is our third one. Next week is another one you'll be interested in. It's about food law and trying to figure out regulations and all this big puzzle that we have. And that will be given by Dave Sikowski. Same time, same place. Following that, if you like wine, you might be interested in listening to Steve Sagacer. And he is in Grand Forks. The following week will be Holly Moby. And she's going to talk about herbs from growing to packing. So that should be very interesting. Following that will be Kim Koch, who is the Feed Production Center Manager at the Northern Crops Institute. You're probably familiar at least a little bit with the Food Safety Modernization Act. Kim has taken a lot of training in that area. On the 12th of April, Esther McGinnis will be talking about food flies, spotted winged risoppolo, to be exact. So please join us for that. And lining up this ten webinar series will be Cliff Hall talking about canning low and high acid foods. And finally, Todd Weinman, who's in Fargo at the Cass County office, talking about introducing youth to gardening. So I certainly welcome all of you to these. There are some that you won't be able to attend, but you're interested in the topic. Please know that we are archiving all of these webinars on the Field to Fork website. And that website continues to grow in terms of the materials that we're putting on it. If you see anything you like that you want to use in, say, do some work at a farmer's market, go ahead, you can run copies. You don't have to ask permission to use the materials. So please use that. That's meant for you. Now, we've already gone through some of the logistics in doing our mic test. But you'll right now are all in the listening mode. And we practice typing in the little chat pod. And I'm going to keep an eye on the chat pod just in case you have questions along the way. And I'll let Chandra know if you have a question for her in case she's not watching that chat pod. The website for accessing the archives actually will come to you through the survey that we send out after this. And if you just remember NDSU Field to Fork, it will take you if you Google that. So good question. I have one eye on one spot and one eye on the other. We do have a survey, a very short survey at the end of the webinar. I really would appreciate getting your responses. I was the one who wrote the grant. I write the reports. And I really need responses to our survey so we can show the grant funding agency that what we did was received. So that's very short. And to make it worth your while, I also do surprise drawing. So I'll go ahead and fill that out when it comes to you. If for some reason that you weren't pre-registered and you accessed this in another way, just send me a note, Julie Garden Robinson, and I will send you the direct link. And I think we also have it on the Field to Fork website with the archived webinars. So it's just a special plea, I guess, that you do fill out that survey. And you also have the opportunity there to tell us about future topics that you will be interested in. And Bob just popped it in. Thank you, Bob. So there you go. So now, it's my pleasure to introduce a couple of people who will be our speakers today. And Chandra Ziemann-Volinsky is the family and consumer sciences agent in Burleigh County with NDSU Extension Service. And her passion for food safety has grown through the years with the influence of her work experiences. After her undergraduate studies, she started at General Mills as a food science technician in R&D, research and development, developing frozen food products with Pillsbury and Totino's. And then she furthered her food science and food safety background with Cloverdale Foods, where she eventually transitioned into the director of quality assurance and food safety. And she's built food safety programs with both employers, and she enjoys helping others understand why it's essential to respect food safety. And she's very happy to have her as one of our Extension agents, so she can be very helpful to you in that whole Burleigh County area. Our special guest is Julie Weigendorf. And she is the fairly new, I believe, director of food and lodging. She replaced Ken and Bullinger recently, and that position is with the North Dakota Department of Health. As a licensed environmental health practitioner, Julie has worked for the Division of Food and Lodging since 2012 and has an additional 10 years of experience in epidemiology while working for the Division of Disease Control. Prior to joining the State Health Department, she worked in the food manufacturing industry directing food safety, microbiological monitoring, quality assurance, and sanitation. And Julie is an NDSU grad with both her bachelor's degree and master's degree, as well as computer support database management from BSE. So you have two very qualified people to deliver today's talk. And again, if you have questions, put them in the chat pod, and I will stop talking and turn it over to Chandra. Okay, great. Can you hear me, Julie? Just double-checking here before I go. Okay, well, thank you so much for that warm welcome, and I want to extend that to everybody who's joined. I am delighted to see that we have quite a few people joining us today over the topic of ultimately food safety. We actually have quite a few subjects throughout the series here focusing on food safety, and I always like to talk about the subject. Today we will be focusing on what regulations apply when preparing food for the public, just as the slide indicates here. So really, this is for those of you out there that might have a great recipe that you want to share with others. So maybe you want to sell it at the farmer's market. Maybe you want to rent a truck to sell at the State Fair. Maybe you want to sell your awesome recipe on the Internet. Well, how do you do that safely? Where do you start? And stay within the regulations. I've always been told that regulations can, you know, take place to the word law or even just rules. Sometimes those are kind of scary words, but, you know, just to stay within the rules when you take your delicious product to market or even just to share. I also want to thank Julie so much, Julie Wagendorf, again the director of food and lodging with the North Dakota Department of Health, because she amps up my confidence here if I'm not able to answer something, especially as it pertains to taking your product to market in North Dakota. Hopefully she'll be able to find us the answer to chime in today. So thank you, Julie. Okay, let's get going here. So again, today's topic, and as I mentioned it and introduced it here, we can kind of take the regulatory requirements for foods to two different subjects. So you pick what path you want to go down with your product today. We'll kind of cover both, I hope. So you either want to make your product to share with others, you're not intending to profit from it, or maybe you are intending to profit from it. You intend to sell this product. Okay, and so we'll hopefully take you down both paths no matter what the situation is in your algorithm here. So before we get started though, I definitely want to define what we mean by preparing. Today we prepare our foods. And for the most part, when I say the word prepare throughout the presentation, I'm referencing that we are planning on processing, maybe canning, baking our food products. Okay, so we're changing the original composition or state of the food and it's no longer whole and uncut. Okay, so some examples would be freezing is considered a process. Drying, milling, chopping, I'm just going to list a few so you can hone in on if this is your situation with your products. Pasteurizing, blanching, you know, if you plan to freeze. Cooking, smoking, if you're making jerky or something of that nature. Mixing, packaging, dehydrating, you're adding ingredients. Okay, so USDA defines the word processing. We won't get into that too much, but certainly search for that if you want to see if what you're doing would be considered preparing. And for the most part, if you're cutting or changing the original composition of food, you're probably applying here. So again, we're going to pick our path and we're going to keep going through the slides. So foods, let's go down share. Share first of all. We're going to start with foods prepared to share. This category, again, is not for sale. Simple as that really. A couple of examples would apply here to get us started. So, you know, if you're an extension, you might do this each season, really. So we might host a salsa making class and participants take home their salsa. So we're making it together. And, you know, whether it's in a commercial kitchen or not, and we'll define that here shortly, you are making this, you're going to take it home and share it. Okay, you're not necessarily going to sell it when you take it home. Also, you might have a potluck situation. I'm sure each of us know exactly, you know, have these commonly. So it's a cause organization, for example, or even not, but you're providing potluck-style food. You're making it to share but not to sell. Okay, so these situations don't require a license or to be made in a commercial kitchen. Just a little bit more about share. So we want to remember, and this is important anytime you're preparing food, but to remember the basic food safety steps. And, you know, and they are four-fold here. So these four steps are intended to prevent foodborne illness. They're recommended in all environments, whether you're at home or in a restaurant environment or taking your product to market and preparing it in a commercial kitchen. And these come from the Fight Back campaign. Back stands for bacteria, so B-A-C. And so these are good to even teach your children as they're preparing snacks for themselves. So you want to start with a clean environment. And just a little bit of a review here on basic food safety. So you want all of your surfaces to be clean and your utensils to be clean. And we do this even as we prepare to make our salsa in our classes. You know, this step involves a few different steps. It's cleaning away the biofilm or the food residue. You want to rinse it with potable water and even maybe sanitize. And you can mix your own sanitizer at home. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. You can take a gallon of water to a tablespoon of bleach. And it's just the right mixture to make a sanitizer at home so that it's safe for food contact surfaces. And in industry, we call that 200 parts per million of bleach or a little less. And you don't even have to rinse it away. Just let it dry. The danger zone, when we get into the, well, let's talk about cross-contamination first. So cross-contamination, and the easiest example I can give is you don't want to produce your raw, hazardous products on the same surfaces, same cutting boards as your cooked, you know, products. So it's a hamburger. You make up your patties on one surface. And you take your patties off the grill, your hamburgers off the grill, and undo another surface. You don't want to cross-contaminate, so avoiding that. Notice these all start with C, so it's easy to remember. So I'll just plug through cooking and cooling quickly here as a review. So remember the danger zone as far as Fahrenheit temperatures is considered about 41 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. So when you're talking about cooking and cooling, you always want to remember not only temperatures, but also respect for time. So 160 degrees Fahrenheit is where we want to target to cook the center of red meats up to, and that includes pork, so that it instantly kills the microbes that can cause foodborne illness. And what we mean by that is you don't have to hold it at a certain temperature. You know, there's a respect for temperature as well as time, and it's important to monitor both of them. So just check out USDA's website, or you can also check out NDSU Extension's website for how long you hold red meat at certain temperatures when you're preparing it. And also, cool. Cooling is important to prevent the growth of microorganisms just like every other step, especially because our room temperature, what we're comfortable in is right in the middle of the danger zone, right? So we have about two hours after preparing foods to get them into proper refrigeration if they're not shell stable. And mind you, that's about room temperature. So if you're doing a picnic at about 100 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer or 90 degrees, you have a little less time than that. And again, that's an example of why time is very relative to temperature when it comes to food safety. So just some reminders as you're preparing food to share. Now, let's keep going unless I have any questions. I don't think so here. Okay, Julie, I'm not able to get past these slides here. Are you there? Let me see what's going on. Okay, if you could. So maybe you pull up the next deck and I can talk in here. Forgive me. Okay, friends, so what we're going to do if I'm pretty visual, so trust me, when we don't have visual, it's hard for me too. But I'm going to switch gears now. We're going to go down the other path as we talked about the topics on the topic slide where you're going to talk about for share or for sale. Now, the big thing today, we're going to talk about how you can take your product to market. So anytime you want to earn a profit from selling a food product, it needs to be produced in a commercially licensed kitchen. And that might sound a little overwhelming. Okay, so it cannot be produced in a residential home. So in other words, you can't use the same kitchen for both purposes. You must seek a license. It also might be called a temporary permit or a permit or something. Whatever the, you know, but we like to use the word licensure. Now there are exceptions and that's what I want to go over with you here today. So let's define commercial kitchen. I said that we would do it. Let's make sure we understand what we mean. Okay, here we go. Awesome, Julie. Let's keep going. There's one more. All right. Sale right here, Julie, I think. Okay, thanks everybody for your patience there. So food's prepared for sale. And I did basically read off this slide here. So we're just going to define commercial kitchen before we go on. The commercial kitchen has quite, you know, it has a few specific characteristics. The big things that Julie Wedgendorf and Anton Sattler, my local health unit folks, and then Julie, of course, across the state, tell me that you need a three-compartment sink. You need one compartment at a minimum to wash, one to rinse, just rinse water, and the sanitize is a third, as well as a designated hand-washing sink. If you're thinking about taking a product to market and you don't follow under some of the exemptions here that I'm going to talk about a little bit later, you need at least four sink units to get going. Another basic requirement is that the floors, walls, ceilings, and sometimes even lights are smooth, sealed, and cleanable. So if you think even concrete, it needs to be sealed. And so that's cleanable. What I would recommend is that your local health unit is the first call that you make. If you need advice on if your kitchen applies, if you plan on building one, or renting a space, or even remodeling, just call your local health unit. And I will get you to the right spot. It's very close to the end of this presentation when we talk about seeking a licensure. Shonda, I'm going to stop here briefly. Can you look up in your deck where it says follow? It should say the 20 out of 37 slides. Uncheck, follow. OK, yep, it's unchecked. OK, try moving forward now. Yep, we're good. OK, Julie, I think it's OK. I've got 21 out of 37. That's not showing up for us when you advance it. You're seeing it, but if the follow button has to be checked for everybody else to see it. OK, are you able to see it now, friends? Now we're on 21. Very good, very good. OK, so here we go. Let's keep going. Exceptions for whole uncut produce. So we're getting into the first exception, and we'll call it an exemption, when you are preparing your fabulous recipe for commerce or for sale. So you are exempt from a license. You do not need to seek a license if you are, as I mentioned earlier in the presentation, basically keeping your produce whole, and you aren't cutting into it. So examples would be selling sweet corn outside a convenience store, like we see often in the fall. They could do that as long as they have permission from the convenience store likely. You can set up a stand to sell potatoes or apples. No need to consult the regulatory body. OK, let's keep going with the exceptions here. There are exceptions for foods produced in the home in the state of North Dakota. It is really the scope that I'm staying within here. So food products may be sold at community events. County fairs to be specific, actually. Non-profit and charitable events. And community celebrations. OK. Farmers markets are a big, big part of an exemption. And on the next slide you're going to see here the fact sheet that we wrote. I have to give entire credit to the North Dakota Department of Health for helping us out to understand what's required to take a product to farmers market. So we'll get to that on the next slide, but that's part of the exemption. And then also roadside stands. OK, so what it did cover, I do want to mention that in extension, we have a big element of responsibility support, and we enjoy supporting 4-H. 4-H is typically covered under 501-C3, so it's considered nonprofit. So I did ask that specific question earlier this week when I was doing research for this. If you're doing something under your county's 4-H umbrella, likely it's a nonprofit event, so you should be exempt from certain things. But of course, if you have any questions, call your local health unit. So what doesn't it include now? OK, so it does not include craft shows, food festivals, other for-profit events, nor sales to other businesses. So anytime you wanted to sell something on the internet, so interstate, across state lines, or sales from one's home or business in general. So OK, we're getting into where do I land in the exemption? Do I apply for an exemption, or does my situation apply to it? And then you can start getting a little frustrated when you're trying to figure out where you fit in. But remember that the reason why we talk about this is we're trying to control the risk and prevent foodborne illness. So we want to be safe about taking our fantastic product to market. The individuals who are selling home processed, home canned, and home baked goods. So I think you know your lepsa maybe, or your excellent jelly. So under this exemption, keep note that if you are exempt, we still are asking that you have available your recipe or pH results so that the regulatory body, if they swing by they can see that you know what you're doing. So in North Dakota, it's nice to have those up because they give you some exemptions. But we still want you to label. We want you to label. So we're going to talk a little bit about those labeling requirements. OK, so here's the fact sheet that Julie Wengendorf's predecessor, Kenan, as Julie Van Robinson introduced him, has written with his team. I bet, Julie, you were a part of this. Were you a part of this fact sheet draft? Hi, Chandra. That actually was drafted before my time. But yeah, we use it together. Great. So this is current. This is what we want you to reference right now. So I referenced a couple what situations do fall under this exemption. And I did reference what it doesn't include. We'll talk a little bit more. There is a second page to this fact sheet. This fact sheet will be on the link, as Julie mentioned, if you take our survey. And then I think Bob had it in the chat box here. So if you scroll up in your chat box, you'll know where to find this fact sheet, OK? So it's a good idea to have your recipe on display. So even if you apply to this exemption, we want you to have a sign up that says these canned goods, baked goods, homemade, and not subject to state inspection. So you don't need a license. And also your food products should be labeled accordingly to the suggestion here on the right side of that slide. So these food products were produced in an unexpected home kitchen where major food allergies may also have been handled and prepared. OK, you can read the allergens there that are recognized by the US here. So OK, so we will hopefully get through. I didn't read everything verbatim here, but we have a few examples we'll work through as we continue through. So this is what that fact sheet looks like. We do want to mention some of the exceptions or exemptions that that fact sheet doesn't include. So again, we aren't allowing you to sell your product without a license at craft shows, at food festivals, or other for-profit events across the internet and sales from one's home or business currently. OK, certain foods that are not allowed under the exemption. So any, this was interesting to me. I knew about this fact sheet, but as I was researching again, any non-acidified foods processed by, so that is defined as pH of 4.6 or greater. So 4.7 would not need it. 5.0, they're getting a little less acidic. So not quite as safe when it comes to the control of microorganisms. So processed by either the use of a boiling water bath or by the use of home pressure cooker. So even if you are a savvy pressure cooker or canner, note that this exemption doesn't allow you to sell that product at the farmer's market. Julie, is that correct? Julie Wettendorf. At this time, only low acid and acidified foods are allowed. So that is correct. Right. Thank you so much. So foods that require refrigeration, and this is very similar to those of us who are familiar with foods exhibits in 4-H. Foods that require refrigeration may not be sold under this ruling because they are higher risk. So custards, if they have meringue topping, of course, anything cream or even cream cheese. Pumpkin, interestingly enough, and kook in it because there's cream in there. A couple examples, if we didn't list your product, maybe feel free to call your local health unit. And I keep referring you to them. We'll get to how to find them here shortly toward the end when we talk about licensure. Again, continuing with foods not allowed under the exemptions on that fact sheet we showed you. Certain foods fall under regulatory jurisdiction and are not exempted by this ruling. So you may not sell fish, dairy, poultry, smoked fish, butter, raw milk, jerky, and any other potentially hazardous foods with flavored oil. This is all in that fact sheet. Let's talk about something happy, right? So foods that you may sell. Okay? Before I go on to the May sell here as you read that, I do want to mention something. When I talk to Anton, and he is my local health unit, so I'm in Bismarck, in Burley, and he works for the, and he is the environmental health administrator. He works for the Bismarck and Burley Public Health, my local health unit here in Bismarck. And he said, you know, you might be asking yourself, why am I allowed under this exemption to sell products at a farmer's market, but I can't sell from my home? And some people get frustrated with that. But if you think of it this way, we're just, we're trying to control the risk of foodborne illness. So it's kind of similar as he put it to fireworks. So if you can purchase them for a limited time, it's only a couple of times a year, you know, over New Year's Eve or the 4th of July, you know, we control that because we're controlling the risk because it can be dangerous. So you can't light them off all the time. And, you know, that's how we're viewing the farmer's market. Okay? So it's not all the time, we're trying to control things, and we're giving suggestions on how to label, for example. So from a consumer standpoint, I like that personally, not only because I like food safety, but truly as a consumer, I want to have faith that the product that I'm eating is produced and controlled in a safe environment. Okay? So let's see, let's keep going. So foods that are allowed, okay? So foods that are allowed, basically these are ones that are 4.6 or less and pH. So I do want to mention there is a caveat here even if the foods are listed as examples here. And they, you know, the important thing is that they have to be 4.6 or less in pH. So sometimes tomatoes may test above 4.6, and they're no longer out of that higher risk category. So, you know, I want to mention that you have the option at several of our county NDSU extension offices. My county is one of them. It's over 20 counties across the state of North Dakota. And actually thanks to Julie Garden Robinson and her work with some grant money, we have pH meters in some counties. And so if, you know, typically how I manage it is I have the individual call and make an appointment because what does pH really mean? It can be kind of above, if you're not interested in the science but you want to do this safely, come to us and we can help you with it. So thank you for making an appointment. And we like that for you to bring in a couple jars of your water bath can product per batch is ideal. And we like to see the recipe with source so that we can work through a couple things. We do charge $25. Just cash or check payables typically to your county. And we are able to verify your product is safe to eat and test. I do want to note that we are not your validation of, we are not your processing authority to say, well, you need to tweak this and that. We are just simply verifying that the end result is 4.6 or less. Julie Garden Robinson, would you like to add anything or does that kind of cover it there? I just typed a couple of comments and when you are making tomatoes, just a reminder to everyone that all of the formulations that we have for tomatoes and salsa have added lemon juice or ascorbic acid. And in your chat box, I also put the link to the publication that tells you the amount. Yes, thank you for mentioning that. That is perfect and I even thought about doing that too. So that was super efficient. And I say that because I get a lot of calls on this, especially during the growing season. And I love these publications because the, I'm not sure which one it is, maybe the bottom link is actually relative to locally grown tomatoes. It's local research. So it's super applicable to what you'd likely get your hands on here. Okay, so let's keep going. We don't have any questions here on what, you know, what you may sell. So also, we were talking about home canned, but this slide says a little bit about home baked foods. So home baked foods that you may sell include what are not limited to Delessa, bread, oh, we have a fantastic bread vendor here locally, sourdough bread, rolls, fruit pies, candies, confectionaries, cookies and bars. Okay, so baked goods you may sell. This is all in that fact sheet. Okay, so a little bit about the label. We saw it earlier on the fact sheet, so there's a tiny bit grainy I have to admit there. So I'll reference it again. If you sell under these exemptions, you must label. And labeling is important because, you know, if you weren't part of the process, I like to read labels. So the seller must display a sign or placard at the point of sale. So I'm going to use this market as an example that we have here in Bismarck Mandan. So the market does like to ensure that our vendors adhere to this fact sheet and we display this as you walk into the market typically at the front. And I'm not sure if each vendor has it actually. Jan is on. She might be able to type in and confirm that. And then not only at the point of sale, you'll have a sign or placard, but each of your food containers should have this message on it. And you will see that at the market here. I'm really proud of whoever created those guidelines with the market. And we have seen Anton fling through before. So he will keep an eye on us and that's good. If we didn't have somebody to keep an eye on it, things would probably wane. So no matter what the situation was, we have to have somebody to make sure we're staying up with it. So each food container, this message, these food products were produced in an unexpected home kitchen where major food allergens may also have been handled and prepared. So and then we list those eight allergens. Other things that would be smart to have on your label. And you should include name of product, name of producer and contact information. So maybe it's the roving donkey producer, who is one at the biz market. Date product was made or canned is nice to know because they have the best quality within a year. And the ingredients are always good to share. Okay. So now, if you do not fall under, we're going down another path in the algorithm now. So you find that you do want to sell your product. But the fact sheet doesn't cover you under an exemption and that fact sheet really is target for farmers market. Non-profit events as well. But if you find that you want to sell and you need to seek a license, it's actually not the end of the world. And it's the right thing to do to make sure that we're staying safe. So you have to consider now which path you're going to take down as a licensure seeker. You're going to either go interstate with interstate commerce with your product. So across the internet would automatically take you into this category. Or are you going to stay within state lines? Maybe you're just going to go to the street fair in Devil's Lake and do this at two different events that they might have. I know in the beginning of the season they have a great old car show. Maybe you want to sell food at that old car show in the beginning of the summer. Okay. So interstate commerce only. And you don't qualify for an exemption because your product might be higher pH or something of that nature. All right. So let's start with interstate commerce. As you go to seek a license, interstate commerce, yeah. You actually then fall under the big dogs, the federal requirements. So FDA does require on a biennial basis. So every two years that you register your facility so that they know who and where, who is producing food products and where. So even when I was with Cofferdale, I had to register all the plants where they produced product. And that way FDA knew that we were selling product. And that actually came about with the Bioterrorism Act. So the intention is to protect the public from a threat or an actual terrorist attack on the U.S. food supply, which is unfortunately something that could happen. So they want to know who's producing food. And this is if you plan to go beyond the state line. So anytime you're doing something maybe even on social media or across state lines on the internet. Start with this link right here. We have that link. These links aren't live. I need to know it probably. And if you're able to open your browser and type this in, note that you might be actually kicked off Blackboard. So maybe wait until you after and you'll get that link to after the survey. You can check this out. I am always available for questions. Okay. So now you stay within state lines. And I have a little bit more detail for you here. So intra-state commerce. This is where finally I give it to you. You can contact your local health unit for guidance. So I happen to love this link. And again, try this after the webinar here. But you simply go to, and Julie, thanks for this. Julie Weidendorf gave us this link. What we mean by health unit is that, for example, in Bismarck here, Anton is both covers Burley and Bismarck. So he's at the Bismarck Burley Public Health Unit. And on Fargo, it's Fargo Cass, Public Health. So this gets you to who to call. Whatever county you might be in within the state of North Dakota. So that's nice. Okay. So just a couple of things here. I'm going to use the Bismarck Burley as an example because I know what happens here in our county and city. Again, I recommend that if you want to get the specifics to sell your product within the state of North Dakota, click on this link after, and you can sign up the specifics in your area. So Bismarck Burley, we offer a temporary food license, as well as a longer-standing, so a mobile food license. And a temporary is done annually on the calendar year. So January comes around. You might want to put a reminder in there that you need to do, you know, your temporary food license again. And it's about $75. It covers several events. So what you do in that application is you write down the events that you want to cover. Now, locally, it might be like you're going to do the capital affair up here at the state capital. Maybe you have an event at Buckstock Junction. Maybe you want to sell your product at Irvin Harvest. Maybe you include those three events where you plan to sell your product. You can also put in there and several others if you aren't sure exactly what your plans are. So also you want to include what designated commercial kitchen you're going to produce your product in. That's the important note here. You need to have a commercial kitchen to produce your product. And so they have the opportunity to inspect your commercial kitchen to make sure that it's a safe choice for you to produce your product. So this is something where now you're in the licensure category, you can't just do it in your home kitchen. Also, you want to specify the foods that you're selling. So maybe it's nachos and caramel apples and cotton candy. So you would specify what you think you might be selling there. So if you wouldn't apply under the temporary food license, which expires in a year, you might apply for that mobile food license, which locally for us is about $150 a year. This is just like a restaurant on wheels. So I think of the E-Tai truck that's parked on Main Street east of town. Excellent Thai food, in my opinion. They have this type of licensure. Okay. So when we say local health unit, I just want to mention that we may be talking about city county public health units. You might be on a district. You might be having to answer to the state health department. So Julie used the example when I called her the first time a couple weeks ago. Every product is different. So when in doubt, call your local health unit. And maybe if you want to put 3% meat toppings on your pizza, at that point you might actually have to be inspected by North Dakota egg departments on the state. So it depends on the situation. Maybe you're taking a raw animal and you're making jerky, she says. Call to see what your situation would be and where you need to be. So I use also an example, Burleigh County 4-H. We have a camper that we call that's been converted into a type of concession stand. And we call it our Chuck Reagan. And every year we do get a temporary food license to sell food products at local 4-H events. I did mention earlier that typically if it's under, if it's considered a 4-H event, we don't need to because we're non-profit. But sometimes we take that Chuck Reagan and support other events that aren't under the umbrella of 4-H. So that's why we need a license. All right. So hopefully that, do we have any questions here? Looks like we're doing okay. Okay. Just a couple more slides today. So really we're at the point in which we want to recap. We started with just sharing an overview with general food safety, whether you're in a commercial environment or at your home. But then we talked about if you want to take your great recipe and actually start selling it. And now you need to consider if you're going to be within the state or outside of state lines and marketed on the internet. And maybe there's an exemption. We have a big farmers market exemption. And so we talked about a few of those. It does need to be a more of an acidified product. But hey, when in doubt, call your local health unit. You could even consult your extension office for pH verification if need be. All right. So just to review what we've covered. And we do want to mention to you that currently North Dakota is in session. And there is House Bill 1433 that is a local cottage law. Or it's pitching a cottage law, I guess. And hopefully I don't botch this here as they introduce it even. But relating, the bill itself is relating to the direct sale of food by the producer to a consumer. So it's really quite broad. And I'm going to chat Julie Wegendorf to basically just explain how the law is written. Thank you, Chandra. I can give you a review of House Bill 1433 from what I know about it. This is a House Bill. So it was introduced into the House and heard by the Agriculture Committee in February. Initially, the House Bill 1433, one of the primary intents was to introduce the sale of raw milk and raw milk products into interstate commerce outside of owning cow shares. And through the committee hearing process, the bill has been amended to remove any sales of raw milk or raw milk products. And the part that is still viable in the House Bill 1433 is what many other states that have similar types of laws refer to as cottage food law, sort of just a coined term. And where it's sitting right now is that the bill still addresses direct producer to consumer sales of food, and it proposes change to Century Code chapter 19-02.1, which is the North Dakota Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. So this bill is proposing to allow the sale of cottage foods in state statute under the chapter 19-02.1, the North Dakota Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. And so really how it's written currently may change. It needs to go through the Senate at this point. It has not been scheduled yet. You can always go to the website nb.gov and look up the 65th legislative session and follow this or any of these types of bills that are going through session at this time. And of course, it's all open to the public. At this point, the bill, you know, the purpose of the bill, again, this is a little bit of subjective interpretation on my part. I wasn't directly involved in or asked to be involved in drafting this bill. From what I understand, it is aimed at more aligning uniformity throughout the state. So when we are talking about whether or not home processed, home canned, and home baked foods are allowed for sale in interstate commerce under certain venues and circumstances by putting it into statute would provide uniformity across the state. So each individual jurisdiction may not differ from what the state statute explains. That being said, you know, we're not through the session yet. There could be further amendments. I'm not aware of what those amendments, if they have already been proposed. I'm not aware of any. Sometimes laws are further amended after they're heard in committee based on testimony given. So that could happen yet in the next couple of months. Really how the current bill is written, it just references food in general. It's not changing the venues from farmers markets. Let's see here. I'm going to grab my reference sheet. It's not really changing a whole lot from what our fact sheet already states other than it is including direct producer to consumer sale. Studying that would open it up, you know, directly from the producer to the consumer and not just at a farmer's market or farm stand. Also, I'm anticipating further changes. It's not requiring any labeling at this point. I would not be surprised if the bill was amended to require certain labeling requirements. It's extremely important to inform the consumer about ingredients for anyone suffering from food allergies, as well as being able to inform the consumer based on how our fact sheet currently suggests that these canned goods or baked goods are home made and not subject to state inspection. So whether that's just a tent, a placard, or a label on each product, the bill at this point does not require any of that labeling. The other, otherwise, as far as limitation of sales, it still would not include any transactions to involve interstate commerce, so that wouldn't change. You would not be able to sell your products over state lines, because as Chandra already mentioned, that falls into FDA's jurisdiction, regulatory jurisdiction. Internet sales, because you can't really control where you're shipping product, that oftentimes is controlled under interstate commerce. Not to say that you couldn't use Facebook or your websites to advertise and provide information to your markets in-state. But you wouldn't be able to use the internet to mail products over state lines for retail. And you also wouldn't be able to sell any of your products to commercial food establishments or retail stores, which isn't different than what we suggest now. So really those are, that's really kind of, I know it's a quick summary, but that really kind of gets down to where it's at right now. And then we are just watching to see what the Senate Agriculture Committee does when they look at this bill and if it's further amended. And will be available to answer any questions or provide education consultation, as we always have been, moving forward as well. So if there is any other questions on this bill or kind of what's happening now, what might change? You know, you can ask questions now or if you want to direct those questions to Julie or Shandra, they can certainly get those to me. And I'd be happy to have any further discussions or visit with anyone anymore about this bill or in general what the Cottage Food Laws would look like in North Dakota. Yes. Julie, thank you so much. That was enlightening and good to know what's going on and to stay current. Jan, I had mentioned in the chat box on the bottom left here just above where I put the link to the House Bill 1433. Thanks for mentioning this, Jan. She said local health units differ on regulations as well. What I had mentioned as the example here locally with Biz Market may not be the case in Devil's Lake, as I used the example earlier. So what may be allowed in one county, locale may not be allowed in others. And that's why it's important to use that link. And let's see here now on this slide to find out who your local health unit is and who to call. Thanks, Jan. That's great. Any questions? Because that brings us to the conclusion of this week's session. Let's go ahead and type any questions you have in the chat box. Or if there's other information that you want to take a look at. This is Julie GR with all the Julie's today. I also wanted to point out on our field to fork website that we also have a little mini module that you can work your way through. So say you have an idea for a product and you're wondering where do I start? Where do I go? We have that sort of information as well as the follow-up. Shandra, I think they're letting you off the hook. I don't think there are any more questions. Right. I'd just like to thank all of you for coming. I hope you join us again next week. And please go ahead and make use of whatever resources we have and let us know what else you need to help you. And I thank Shandra and Julie for providing today's lesson. So thank you very much. It looks like we have one question here from Jessica since we have time. Jessica, please type in what you mean by CSA. So I'm not assuming. Community supporting agriculture, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Julie, Gordon Robinson, do you have an answer for this one? I would actually recommend sitting in on Dr. Sikowski's session next week. As well. He knows. And Jessica, if you want to follow-up directly with me, just Julie.GardenhavenRobinson at NDSU.edu, I can lead you towards some resources to help you with that. That's a webinar in itself, I think. Good question. Please follow-up with any of us. We'll do what we can. Any other questions? All right. I think this concludes our Wednesday weekly webinar. Thank you again, everyone, and thank you, presenters. Thank you.

Marc Carrel-Billiard, Accenture Labs | Accenture Technology Vision Launch 2019

Marc Carrel-Billiard, Senior Managing Director at Accenture Labs,
talks with Jeff Frick at the Accenture Technology Vision Launch event from Salesforce Tower at the new Accenture west region innovation hub.
Accenture’s focus on business trends shifts from SMAC to DARQ Power
https://siliconangle.com/2019/02/11/accentures-focus-on-business-trends-shifts-from-smac-to-darq-power-techvision2019/
Six years ago, digital trends were commonly summarized under SMAC, which stood for social, media, analytics and cloud. Accenture PLC has captured the current digital evolution as DARQ Power, represented by distributed ledger technology, artificial intelligence, extended reality, and quantum computing.
These latest trends, which exemplify what Accenture has termed the key trends characterizing the post-digital era, were outlined in the technology consultancy’s recently released “Technology Vision 2019” report.
“It’s all about driving innovation at scale,” said Marc Carrel-Billiard (pictured), senior managing director at Accenture Labs. “I would say that DARQ is the new SMAC.”
Carrel-Billiard spoke with Jeff Frick (@JeffFrick), host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during Accenture Technology Vision 2019 in San Francisco. They discussed the four key trends outlined in the company’s latest report and their future impact.
Need for ledger interoperability
Accenture views distributed ledger technology, exemplified by the blockchain, as an important trend in search of an interoperable solution. The rise of different blockchains that are focused on multiple areas, such as manufacturing or finance, has created a need for a common framework between ledgers.
“One thing that the lab will be looking at is how we can interoperate between those different blockchains,” Carrel-Billiard said. “There’s also going to be interoperability between the blockchain that you’re implementing and the legacy environment you have. This needs to be addressed as well.”
Accenture has three labs dedicated to AI, and the firm intends to focus on understanding why intelligent technology offers certain results and strengthening human/machine interaction. “One of the things we want to address is the conversational aspect of the intelligent agent,” Carrel-Billiard said.
In its report last year, Accenture described immersive technologies as having the power to transform entire industries. For 2019, the firm intends to focus on the total immersive experience. “What’s going to be important for us is to not just look at extended reality from a vision standpoint, but try to give you the combined effect of every immersive sense that you have,” Carrel-Billiard explained.
The configuration of quantum computers offers the potential for processing data at much faster speeds than traditional machines today. Accenture’s evaluation of the quantum field envisions extending this power into real-world situations affecting humans.
“We’re going to use quantum computing to do better matchmaking between a person who is waiting for an organ and an organ that you can transfer to this person,” Carrel-Billiard stated. “You have only a few hours to figure out who the best receivers are. This is hyper-personalization.”

From the Salesforce Tower in downtown San Francisco, it's theCUBE, covering Accenture TechVision 2019, brought to you by SiliconANGLE Media. Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frick here with theCUBE. We're in downtown San Francisco at the brand-newly opened Salesforce Tower, the 33rd floor, the middle of the brand-new Accenture Innovation Hub. We're excited to have our next guest who's been part of the Innovation Labs and the Innovation Hubs, and a lot of innovation at Accenture for years and years and years. We've seen him before. We were at the 30th anniversary. I think last year, all the way from Paris, he's Mark Carell-Billiard. He's a senior managing director for Accenture Labs. Mark, great to see you again. Great to see you, Jeff, again, as well. So, what do you think of the new space here? I love it. I just love it. I mean, just like, and I saw it like building and everything and now it's really, and we opened it today. I mean, it's just like amazing. The stairs. Did you see the stairs? I saw the stairs. The stairs, really amazing. Everything is good there. I mean, I think it's not an office like Paul said. Paul already said. It's really something better. It's a tool for explaining what is innovation or architecture at play. I mean, how we use it. How we connect the labs with the liquid studio, all the ventures, everything, that's great. But now it's all brought together, right? Because you had a couple of satellite locations in the period that are now all together. Yeah, and I think that was the story of putting all this stuff in one, we called the Innovation Hub. And so putting everything in the same building and have different floors where we can address different talking with our clients. Are we talking about research? Are we talking about more prototyping? Are we talking about, I mean, at the end it's all about driving innovation at scale. So we're here for the technology vision. We are. Which will be in a little bit. Paul and the team will present. You will. Five new trends for 2018. One of the ones they call this dark, D-A-R-Q. Which is distributed ledger technology, formerly known as blockchain, but we don't want to call it blockchain. AI, extended reality, which is every kind of form, extended, augmented, mix-religion, everything, and quantum computer. So from the last point of view, from an essential kind of innovation, looking forward and inventing the future, as you like to say, which I think is a great tagline. What are some of your priorities going forward now that you've got this great new space, which is one of what I think 11 in the United States, right? So my priorities are all of them. I mean, all of the above, all of the above. Because I was just like, you remember at the time, we were talking about smack, like social mobility. There was analytics and cloud. I would say that dark is the new smack. So we saw that basically that technology has evolved, you know? And like from analytics, we'd like more AI work and everything, but still combine everything. You can still think about like social media, like collaborative stuff. We're going to go through immersive reality, where we're going to continue collaborating. Think about cloud. I mean, just like cloud would bring you hide a throughput computing power through the cloud. Well, I mean, also quantum computing can give you like amazing capability in terms of computing power. So I would say like probably dark is a new smack. And so the lab has been working on it since, I would say, not since day one, but at the very beginning. And so, well, obviously distributed ledger, you know that we have a lab in Sofianity Police. They're really spending a lot of time in the blockchains. And so there's a couple of things that we're doing. I give you a couple of ideas. One is, many people talk about blockchains. And there's bunch of blockchains all over. You know, it's like blockchain for manufacturing. There's blockchain for trade finance. There's blockchain for this and that. Problem is, there's no very good interoperability between those blockchains. One thing that the lab is going to be working is that how we can interoperate between those different blockchains. So you are basically a supply chain. You want to connect particularly to a financial organization how their blockchain will connect to your blockchain. Number one. The second thing we're going to be working on is the smart contract. The lab believe the smart contract is not smart enough. So we're going to add more artificial intelligence in the smart contract to see what we could do better. Think about the smart contract as a store procedure in database. How we make the store procedure a little bit better. I mean, it's just analogy type of things. Well, I'm just thinking of the blockchain conversation. Because I think you have a demo, talking about DHL. Yeah, DHL exactly. But is that logistics and that merchandise moves through their system, as you said. There's a lot of different touch points with a lot of different systems. Well, it's not an aggregated system. It's a problem. And the other thing is you don't necessarily need all the data for each person or transaction all along the line. You're absolutely right. And I talk about interoperability between blockchains. But there's going to be also interoperability between the blockchain that you're implementing and the legacy environment that you have. And this needs to be addressed as well. So a lot of thinking about blockchains. I mean, I've always said for me that blockchain is the digital right management of your future, that kind of protocol. And we're working with companies. They're basically creating movies and stuff like that and how we leverage blockchain to exchange those movies between different parties. I mean, there's going to be a lot of cool stuff that we're going to be able to do. So that's blockchain. The default distributed ledger. A, for artificial intelligence. So artificial intelligence obviously is something very big in our labs. We have three labs that are dedicated to artificial intelligence. Three. Yeah. Out of seven. One here, San Francisco. The other one in Bangalore. And the third one in Dublin, Ireland. And each of them are covering a little part of the things that we want to do with artificial intelligence. It's all about accelerating the artificial intelligence. So how are we going to think about new infrastructure and new way of doing machine learning using weak labeling? It's all about explainable AI. How are you going to connect the knowledge graph with machine learning so that the probabilistic model will give you an explanation of why they have decided to select, well, this picture or this information and so forth. And then basically the other things that we're going to be working on artificial intelligence is that the human-machine interaction. And one thing that we want to address is what we call the conversational aspect of a virtual agent. If you look at virtual agents, today is voice comment about things. Right, right. You can't really engage in a conversation. I want to look at that and how they're going to understand context, how you're going to be exchanging better and how you're going to flow a better conversation with that. One thing that's going to be very important in everything that we're doing is going back to semantic network, knowledge management, knowledge graph, how we combine knowledge graph with all these machine learning capabilities. That's artificial intelligence in the lab. Then we'll just work down the list, right? Then you've got the ex-reality, right? Whatever kind of reality it is. So we're going to continue doing a lot of stuff related to ex-centered ability, immersive learning. We're going to use that. I think what's going to be important for us is that not to look at ex-centered ability just from a vision standpoint, but try to use the combinatorial effect of every immersive senses that you have. So basically, hearing, also smelling, touching the app tick, and how you combine all those senses to change completely the experience, what you really feel. In fact, if you go to this innovation hub, I don't know if you've seen that we have an... We did, I tell the 360. That's right, the 360, to try to immerse you already in some quantum computing experience. I think it's a good segue also for the quantum. So quantum is that we've been doing a lot of progress with quantum. You know, like two years ago, we started already to work with D-Wave. And then we have worked also with these companies called OneCubit. So we built a software development kit to program the quantum computer. And then we work with Biogen to do drug discovery and changing, basically, the way you do that by accelerating that through quantum computing. But we've continued. I mean, we've announced, basically, some partnership with IBM to look at their platform. We're continuing or working with other interesting platforms like Fujitsu, their Judo and Neelor, and so forth. And what we want to do is that, you know, I mean, Accenture is very very agnostic related to all those vendors. What we want to do is that we want to understand more about how you program those different architecture, how you see what type of problems they can solve, and how best you can program them. And so if we use basically an abstraction layer on top of all this hardware, and then we can program on top of that, this is really cool. This is exactly what we want to do. So how close is it? How close is it to getting the production ready? I mean, you've got it in the new vision for 2019, but, I mean, are people just playing with it, or is it ready for prime time? You know, kind of, where is it? So first of all, on the dark stuff, I mean, all the people, all of our clients that we have, I mean, quantum specifically. Okay, quantum specifically, yeah. So I think we're talking about like three to five years to start to have like real solutions. Right now we have prototype, but we're moving to more pilots, and then I think the solution will come soon. And it sounds like probably in five years time we'll start into a sense thing. Let me give you another idea. It's a matter of magnitude difference in the way that you can compute data. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And I think that's gonna change the game. And it's gonna change the game on everything. Let me give you maybe a last example that I'm sure you're gonna love. And it's all about optimization, matchmaking. You know, like our tech vision this year is all about hyper-personalization, like hyper-personalization plus on-demand delivery. And so that's how at the moment, you know, you're gonna change the game, momentary moment, how you're gonna change the reality of people. What are you gonna be able to do? I'm gonna tell you that. Where are we gonna use quantum computing? We're gonna use quantum computing to do a better matchmaking between a person who's waiting for an organ and an organ that you can transplant to this person. And the moment is the accident that happens on the street. Right, right. There is gonna be someone basically dying on the street, so someone dead, and then you need basically to get this organ. It could be a kidney, for example. Every organ has a time-lapse that you can use basically to transport that to someone else. Now the question is that you have the organ, it's in basically ice cubes environments like box. Right, right, right. And then you transplant that to someone. You have like few hours to figure out who are the best receiver. And this is hyper-personization because you need to understand the variable of all the body that is gonna receive that, but all the variables of the organ. Until now it was all mainframe to the matchmaking. Right, right. We are re-syncing that using quantum computing. It's just wild. You know, what cloud really enabled the concept, right? If you had infinite compute, infinite store, and infinite networking at basically free, right? Asymptotically approaching free, what would you build? And that's a very different way to think about problems. Not only will we build some amazing thing, but I think we would change the reality of every people. Every people will have their own reality. They could use product and service the way they want it. I mean, this would be a completely different, not a world, but like a game set that would be completely different, I think. Well, Mark, we're almost out of time and I just want to ask you about Pierre. Former CEO of Accenture passed away recently and I was really struck by the LinkedIn messages. So many people, you know, I follow you, I follow Paul, a lot of people post it. What a special man and what an impact he had. It sounds really personally with most of the leadership here at Accenture. I wonder if he could share a few thoughts. Well, obviously, I mean, everyone has been very sad that we lost Pierre. I mean, it was just an emerging person. What I said is like, he was like really a role model, not only in business, but in life. And he was so fun about, fun of innovations. He loved the labs, he loved, you know, I mean, what we could do and I think he was really thinking about like the better future for the people, better future for the world and everything and it was really amazing for that. And, you know, I mean, it's just like, everyone was struck really, I mean, to see that. But I think there was like so many testimonials pouring from our people, but what I was even more amazed is our clients. He really moved clients. And his visions, I mean, it's an amazing legacy for Accenture and we're gonna, I mean, this is so precious what he left us. And I think that I really want the lab, I mean, just like every day that we're inventing something, I'm always thinking about Pierre and what he would have thought about these things. He was always enthusiastic reading our research paper and everything, so definitely the lab's gonna continue to innovate and I hope that Pierre, wherever he is, will be watching and will be happy with that. All right, well Mark, thanks a lot for taking a few minutes and congratulations on this continual evolution of what you guys are doing with labs and the innovation centers and now the innovation hub here in downtown San Francisco. Thanks, Jeff. All right, he's Mark, I'm Jeff. You're watching theCUBE. We're in downtown San Francisco at the Accenture Innovation Hub as part of the Accenture Technology Vision 2019 presentation. Thanks for watching. See you next time.

My name is Jessica Ekmovich and I'm from Pasco, Washington. My parents and my family decided that they wanted to move here but before we actually moved here I was really against it so I made a list of 50 reasons of why we shouldn't move here but my parents didn't listen because they knew that this is what we needed so we ended up moving here. Before my life with Christ I was suffering with depression. I always felt lonely, I always felt like there was nobody there for me and I felt this pit inside of my stomach that I felt like it could never be filled. During one of the youth services I realized that the pit that I had in my stomach could only be filled by one person and that person was God and that was the moment that I realized that I should dedicate myself to Him so that's what I did. My life now with Christ is different. I'm a lot more happier now. I don't suffer with depression. I'm a lot more open with people and my relationship with God is growing every day. My relationship with God is continuing to grow every single day and I hope that it will be stronger than it is now. I'm getting baptized because I want to publicly declare my relationship with Christ and to show that I'm going to continue to follow Him. Alright Jessica, so do you believe in Jesus Christ as God's Son and your personal Lord and Savior? Yes I do. Do you promise to follow Him with good conscience for the rest of your life? Yes. Based on your faith, confession and your commitment will baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Hey everyone and welcome back to Nintendo Prime. We have an interesting video for you today because the Nintendo Switch eShop has been an amazing place to find a lot of really, really great games, right? We've had a lot of amazing indie games come out, Shadow Drops, in fact. It's possible with Gamescom this week. There could be some more Shadow Drops coming. How about Ninja Turtles? You know, members of Shredder's Revenge. We saw that at a Nintendo Direct earlier this year. We didn't see it at the last one or the indie world. Yeah, that's kind of an interesting one that's going to be at Gamescom. It's being advertised for Gamescom. Maybe there's a Shadow Drop this week and that would be a really cool addition on Switch eShop. In fact, we just had a Shadow Drop quite recently on Switch eShop. But here's the thing. The Switch eShop isn't perfect, right? We've all been criticizing it seemingly forever. It doesn't organize things very well. It doesn't lead to organic discovery. And I've talked several times in the past I think Nintendo needs to be looking at competitors such as Netflix and see how they organize things. You have your recent stuff and then you have categories by genre and then you obviously have suggested content. And that suggested content is based on content you have currently played or previously played on your system, whether physical or digital. And then in addition to that, they also have a featured section. And that featured section would obviously be the games that they are advertising at that moment, whether it's their own games or third party games or indie games. So it's a great way for discovery. Netflix is really good at helping people discover new content on the platform. And Nintendo's eShop is like the opposite of that. In fact, one of the best ways to discover content was previously using go into the sales section and seeing what games are on sale. The problem is at any time now there's 3,000, 4,000 games on sale. All of them competing for different prices to appear differently in the list. And it still gets really, really difficult to find games. Pretty much if you're not a featured game by Nintendo, you are not going to be easy to find on the eShop without the number of games that come out every day. Even if you're a new release, you could be buried tomorrow. So it's been a fundamental issue for quite some time, but the eShop needs some work. And I'm not saying that necessarily Microsoft or the Xbox or Sony with their store, the PlayStation Store has been significantly better, but they are a little bit better in the discovery department. I do think all the shops could actually use a little bit of work and take a lot of cues from things like Netflix and even Hulu and some of these other TV, movie applications out there, even Disney Plus where they could really take some notes from how they organize things to help consumers discover new content. That being said, that's less the issue today. Today is actually a major problem with Switch, which is probably more prevalent than we realize, but there is something happening on the Nintendo Switch eShop right now that is a massive problem. And honestly, it's on Nintendo for allowing it to happen. Now, before we get into that, I'm going to remind you we are giving away eSwitch OLED. That's right, the brand new system that comes out on October 8th. We're giving away one of the white versions to one lucky subscriber out there. That's right, all you need to do is be subscribed to the channel to enter, and we will announce the winner in a live stream in early October. All right, so I'm getting all this from a Reddit thread and I have independently verified it. Got my Switch right here, logged in, checked it all out. It seems to be legit as hell. I didn't bother to buy both of these games to confirm, but it does look like I don't want to, basically I don't want to support what is happening here. And I want to point this out just to bring more attention to it. So Nintendo, please watch this video or watch other videos that might cover this and do something about not just this situation, but what is likely hundreds of these situations on the eShop. So this was all pointed out by a user over on the Nintendo Switch Reddit called Caspian X2. So I'm going to read his thread and I'm going to put actual gameplay of what he's talking about on screen right now. So Metal Commando, a game being released on the eShop twice under two different names by two different publishers just one week apart from each other. This is really, really strange to me. Let me explain what I've been able to find out and you can judge for yourself what's going on. Just a few days ago, publisher Ultimate Games released a game on the eShop called Metal Commando. For what I can tell, the game was developed by a company called NZT Studio. Note the NZT Corporation signs in the background and I'm guessing it was shopped around to dev4play.com to be published. You can see their logo at the end of the Nintendo Switch trailer here. Dev4Play's business model seems to be acting as the middleman between Development Studios and Ultimate Games. Their website proudly states we will publish your game but all of their games are listed as being published on the Nintendo Switch seem to only list Ultimate Games as the publisher. Okay, so Ultimate Games published a Switch port of a mobile game, big deal, right? Here is the thing, later this week, the Nintendo Switch will be receiving a new release by the name Titans Black Ops. Take a look at the screenshots. Looks familiar, don't it? Yeah, there are even the NZT Corporation signs in the background. This time the game was being published by Benjamin Kistler, aka Kistler Benjamin. A look at his catalog of games on the Nintendo Switch makes it clear that this guy brings over a lot of asset flips. Two thirds of the stuff on that page can be found on the Unity Asset Store. Ultimate Games, meanwhile, seems to mostly publish games by various other developers and if they put out any asset flips, I haven't been able to find them. Now, this wouldn't be the first time the Switch has played host to an asset flip. Just a few days ago, I posted about the infamous Hammer 2 asset flip, which is about to get released on the Nintendo Switch for the third time. However, I've been looking high and low to see if Metal Commando is on asset stores and I haven't been able to find it. I absolutely do see it on Google Play in many, many places. Usually, it's simply listed as Metal Commando. You can see it in all these other places that he links and I'll put a link to this thread down in the description so you guys can go check that out yourself. It says, interestingly, the signs in that last one read MTB Corporation, just to point out that a few came up in a quick search. So clearly, this is a game that's getting around, but is it an asset flip or perhaps a case of a developer handing out the game to publishers like Candy for some reason? In any case, it seemed really crazy that the same game would be released twice under two names by two different publishers, only a week apart from each other. And I thought you guys might be interested to hear about it. And obviously he mentioned Hammer 2 as an example getting released three times on the Nintendo Switch eShop. And there's some people out there that are a little bit upset that it's kind of like a Metal Slug ripoff. And I will say this, I don't really care so much that the game is inspired by or based on or heavily influenced by something like Metal Slug. It's still its own art style, it's still its own gameplay. So that doesn't really bother me so much. There's gonna be lots of games like any game that becomes popular. Remember when Flappy Bird was a big thing of phones? Look how many of the clones we got out there. I don't have a problem with any of the clones. That's just taking advantage of a popular thing in the marketplace. But here's the thing. Obviously the Switch eShop has a problem. It has a problem with the game discovery. And I feel like the issue with game discovery is what's leading to this. A game being published by multiple studios under different names. A game appearing several times and several different iterations of it necessarily on things like the Android Store. I feel like the Switch's biggest problem with something like this is twofold. One, obviously they have a problem with game discovery leading to the encouragement of publishing a game like Hammer 2 three times. And then obviously an issue where they're not paying attention to what's being put on their shop. Now Nintendo, for those who don't know, you can't just willy-nilly toss a game on the Nintendo Switch eShop. You can't just wake up one day, have a game, have a Switch dev kit and decide, I'm gonna throw this out on the eShop. Nintendo has to approve every single game released on the eShop. That doesn't necessarily mean they have to play the games. I'm not saying there's someone at Nintendo America, at Nintendo of Japan, just sitting there playing every single game submitted to them. That is not necessarily the case, although you can argue maybe they should be and that would help curate the experience. But what happens is that the games have to go to Nintendo for approval for publication on their platform. And what's happening is they're not paying any attention to what's being published on the Switch eShop at all. To be clear, I don't care this is a mobile game from your phone put on Switch, that's not my gripe. I have no problem with phone games being on Switch. There are actually some really good phone games and heck, this might be one of them. I don't know, I haven't played it. It looks fine, for at least from the video I'm showing you. So again, the Switch eShop has two major problems here. One is obviously a curation problem and the other is obviously they are not quality controlling this eShop at all. And I think we've known that for a while, but it's sad when we see example after example of this happen. I said these are two examples of Hammer 2 and obviously Metal Slug or whatever, not Metal Slug, but it's Metal Commando. But it's frustrating and I gotta admit, I tend to be using the eShop less and less as the years go unless there's a very specific thing I'm looking for, like yesterday I downloaded a Warriorware demo during Andres Research podcast that I was on last night because I was reminded of the demo, I totally forgot about it. So I went on the eShop and I looked it up. It wasn't like it was easy to find. I just knew what I wanted, went to the eShop, typed it in the search and downloaded the demo. And that's pretty much the only way I use the eShop these days. I don't navigate the menus anymore. I don't bother to try to discover new games that maybe I might be interested in that I didn't think about. And I had thought about actually even making a video series where I go through and I buy like five games off the eShop that the eShop suggests to me to purchase. I don't know how they really suggest since it doesn't, maybe that they feature. Maybe it's the five cheapest games and you know, or the five biggest sales on the eShop. I don't know, like I'm thinking of like a series where maybe I explore the eShop a little bit more just to see how bad it really is. And that's something that maybe will start to happen as we get further into the year here. But honestly, this is a shameful thing from you Nintendo, tut, tut, tut Nintendo. I'm gonna be a teacher. I'm gonna scold you. This is wrong. You get an F for this situation. This is on you. Yes, companies that are trying to take advantage of it or trying to have multiple publishers and release things under different names. Yes, we could talk about those shameful practices but why do those practices exist? Game can't be discovered on your eShop. That's number one. And number two, you allow it to happen. If you didn't allow it to happen, it wouldn't happen in the first place. Nintendo, this is on you. Your quality control for the eShop is trash. Your development on the eShop, am I gonna say it's trash? It's functional. It's just not as good as it should be for a digital shop in 2021. When I could tell you the Microsoft Store, Windows PC does a better job and that's a trash store in comparison to pretty much every other shop. You can get on a PC but the Microsoft Store that's baked in the Windows 10 is garbage and that garbage is still leagues ahead of the way the eShop is organized. And there are a lot better at curating things although there's some exceptions out there. You for a while you could buy like a copy of Mario literally off the eShop or off the Microsoft Store. So they have their own issues too. So they're not perfect but at least they're organized. You're not even that. So Nintendo, you need to step up. People always say I'm not critical of Nintendo enough. Well let me tell you, I'm critical of Nintendo when they deserve it. They deserve criticism. They deserve all the criticism for that eShop. This is a device that has a brand new version with an OLED screen with pretty much no bezels coming out here in October and the eShop is not gonna get any better. The kickstand will be better. The screen experience will be better. It'll be brighter, it'll be more vivid. It's gonna be deeper blacks. It's gonna be a much better gaming experience but the way you get digital content isn't improving. This is beyond the fact there's no themes and other stuff that you can make easy money on this platform and let people customize it a bit. Forget that. I'm not even upset about that. But the eShop, a way we purchase video games is broken. And I don't know, I can't really make an excuse for that Nintendo. It's been almost five years. Get your shit together. I am Nintendo Robot Dance from Nintendo Prime. Thank you so much for tuning in. Hopefully you enjoyed this video. Drop a like, leave a comment, help us out with that YouTube algorithm.

An Introduction to the Patent System
|
2002 Federal Judicial Center gov.ntis.ava21157vnb1 Federal Judicial Center - This 17-minute video is designed to be shown to jurors in patent jury trials. It contains important background information intended to help jurors understand what patents are, why they are needed, how inventors get them, the role of the Patent and Trademark Office, and why disputes over patents arise. An Introduction to the Patent System was developed with the assistance of an advisory committee of district judges and patent attorneys. Special care was taken to ensure that it provides an impartial and objective view of the patent process. It is, however, up to the individual trial judge to decide whether or not to use this video in patent jury trials. The Center is simply making it available as a resource. The video downloads and an accompanying sample patent are available from http://www.fjc.gov/public/home.nsf/pages/557 .

I'm sure what a patent is. We hope to answer that concern with this brief video, which will give you some of the background needed to do your job. This case will involve some special issues that the judge and lawyers will explain to you, but all patent cases involve some basics that you will learn about. This video will discuss what patents are, why we have them, how people get them, and why there are disputes that require us to call in a jury like you. We'll also show you what patents look like. The United States Constitution gives Congress the power to pass laws relating to patents. It allows Congress to promote the progress of science and useful arts by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries. A patent, then, is an official grant by the United States government that gives its owner certain rights to an invention. Those include the right to keep others from making, using, selling, or offering for sale the invention that is described in the patent. A patent lasts for a specific period of time, usually 20 years, and represents a bargain made between the government and the inventor. In return for the right to keep others from using the invention, the inventor must enhance the public knowledge, or what we sometimes call the state of the art, by adding something new and useful to it. An example is Thomas Edison's invention of the light bulb. During the lifetime of the patent, its disclosure may inspire new inventions, and after it expires, the invention is free for anyone to use. It is this giving of something new and valuable to the public that justifies giving a patent to the inventor. A patent is in many ways like a deed to a piece of property. It grants the owner the right to keep people off the property, or to charge them a fee, like rent, for using it. And just as a deed indicates limitations on the rights of a landowner, a patent sets limits on the rights of an inventor. The patent system works because the inventor is required to describe the invention in clear and specific terms, so that the public knows what the boundaries of the invention are. Once a patent is issued by the government, it becomes available for public inspection. In that way, anyone who learns of the patent and is interested can read it and understand exactly what the inventor has claimed to have invented. Now that we understand what a patent is, let's take a closer look at the term invention. An invention is a new way of solving a problem. The patent process begins in the mind of the inventor, and in particular when the invention is formulated in the mind of the inventor. Patent lawyers call this conception. This is when the idea occurs to the inventor clearly enough that he or she can write it down and explain it to someone. To qualify for a patent, the invention needs to be new and useful. Also it must not be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the field. If the inventor believes these requirements are met, he or she will prepare an application for filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office in Washington, D.C. The Patent and Trademark Office, often called the PTO, is the agency of the federal government whose job it is to examine patent applications to make sure they are in proper form and comply with the requirements of the law. The inventor can prepare the application for filing with the PTO, but usually it's drafted by an attorney who specializes in this work, or by a patent agent who is not an attorney. The attorney or agent works with the inventor to be sure the invention is described and claimed in a way that complies with the law and the regulations of the PTO. As you can see, the application is basically a typewritten document in which the inventor describes the invention he or she is trying to protect. When the PTO receives the inventor's application, it assigns a patent examiner, a staff person with a background in the field or art the invention falls within, to examine the application and decide whether a patent can be granted. You've been given a sample patent to refer to as you watch this video, so you already have a sense of what a patent looks like. But now let's take a closer look at the three main parts to a patent. To begin with, there is some basic identifying information on the first page. This material is highlighted in your handout. On the upper right side of the page is the number assigned to the patent by the government, and on the left side is a title that describes the invention, the names of the inventors and sometimes the company they have assigned the patent to, and the date when the patent application was filed. There is also more detailed information on the first page, including a list of numbers following the caption field of search. These numbers identify previously issued patents the examiner looked at or searched to make sure the applicant's claimed invention really is something new, not obvious, and thus patentable. Also listed on the first page are what we call references, that is, previous patents or articles that describe the technology or prior art known at the time the application was filed. It may seem strange to you that we call this pre-existing technology prior art, even though it has nothing to do with artists. We use the word art in its broadest sense to include inventions and other subject matter reasonably related to the claimed invention. We also refer to the latest technology as state of the art, and we say of someone who can understand and apply the technology that he or she is skilled in the art. The second major part of the patent is what we call the specification or written description. As is the case in your sample, it's usually the longest part of the patent. It includes an abstract, which is a brief summary of the invention, a background section that describes the nature of the problem the invention is supposed to solve, one or more drawings called figures that illustrate various aspects of the invention, and a detailed description of one or more embodiments of the invention. An embodiment is a specific device or method that uses the invention, such as a particular form of light bulb. The third and most important part of the patent is the claims. These are the numbered paragraphs that appear at the end. The claims are what give the public notice of the boundaries of the invention. They are similar to the description of property you may have seen in a deed, referring to precise measurements taken on the ground. Now that we've discussed the main parts of a patent, let's take a look at how the PTO processes patent applications. This process, which is called prosecution of a patent application, begins when the inventor's application arrives at the PTO mailroom. There it receives a stamp that establishes its filing date. Every year the PTO receives over 300,000 applications and issues more than 150,000 patents. Applications go from the mailroom to the office of initial patent examination, which looks them over to make sure all the required parts are there. This office also decides what field of technology an application relates to and assigns it to the appropriate examining group. Then it is assigned to an individual patent examiner for handling. It then gets put in a stack to wait its turn for examination. The reason is that examiners have to review the applications assigned to them in the order in which they have been filed. In time the examiner turns to our inventor's application and begins by reading it, especially the specification and claims, in order to come to a conclusion about whether the inventions described in the claims are patentable. A patent might contain one claim or many claims and the examiner must make this conclusion about each individual claim. In order to make that decision, the patent examiner usually looks at patents that have been issued previously in the same or very closely related fields of art. In most areas of technology, the examiner also has computer databases that contain limited additional information. Another part of the job is to decide if the inventor's description of the invention is complete and clear enough to meet the requirements for a patent, including the requirement that the description enable someone of ordinary skill in the field to actually make and use it. It's important to note that the process of patent examination is private. That is, the public does not know that someone has applied for a patent on an invention until the patent issues or in some cases until the application has been pending for at least 18 months. The reason for this secrecy is to give the inventor a chance to get the examiner's reaction to the application and decide whether to withdraw it for whatever reason and keep the invention as confidential information. However, because the process occurs mostly in private and because the job of examining so many applications is very challenging, the law requires the applicant to tell the examiner whatever he or she knows about the prior art that might be important to the examiner's decision on whether to allow the patent. We call this the applicant's duty of candor. One way the applicant can satisfy this duty is by bringing a certain prior art to the attention of the examiner, either in the original application or in other submissions called information disclosure statements. In this way, the decisions of the examiner are based on both the information provided by the applicant and on the information the examiner is able to find during the examination process. Sometimes the examiner concludes the application meets all the requirements we've discussed and allows the patent to issue at this first stage, but more frequently the examiner will reject the application as deficient in some respect. At that point, the applicant usually prepares a written response, either agreeing or disagreeing with the examiner. An applicant who agrees with the examiner can submit amendments to the application designed to overcome the examiner's objection. And an applicant who disagrees with the examiner can explain the reasons for the disagreement. This exchange of office actions and responses goes on until the examiner issues a final office action, which may reject or allow some or all of the applicant's claims. Once a final PTO office action has occurred and one or more claims have been allowed, the applicant is required to pay an issuance fee and the patent is granted. Then on the date shown in the upper right corner of the first page of the patent, it is issued by the PTO and the inventor receives all the rights of a patent. That date is highlighted on your sample. By the time a patent issues and the public can take a look at it, the record of what the examiner did is also made public. This is the patent's file, which we call the prosecution history. The file history contains the original application and all the communications between the applicant and the patent examiner, including a record of any rejections, the applicant's responses, and any amendments. Once a patent is issued, the inventor or the person or company the inventor has assigned a patent to can enforce the patent against anyone who uses the invention without permission. We call such unlawful use infringement. But the PTO and its examiners do not decide infringement issues. If there is a dispute about infringement, it is brought to the court to decide. Sometimes in a court case, you are also asked to decide about validity, that is, whether the patent should have been allowed at all by the PTO. A party accused of infringement is entitled to challenge whether the asserted patent claims are sufficiently new or non-obvious in light of the prior art or whether other requirements of patentability have been met. In other words, a defense to an infringement lawsuit is that the patent in question is invalid. You may wonder why it is that you would be asked to consider such things when the patent has already been reviewed by a government examiner. There are several reasons for this. First there may be facts or arguments that the examiner did not consider, such as prior art that was not located by the PTO or provided by the applicant. Another reason may be the failure by the applicant to disclose the best way of making or using the invention, which is another requirement for getting a patent. In addition, there is of course the possibility that mistakes were made or important information overlooked. Examiners have a lot of work to do and no process is perfect. So unlike a court proceeding, prosecution of a patent application takes place in private without input from people who might later be accused of infringement. So it is important that we provide a chance for someone who is accused of infringement to challenge the patent in court. In deciding issues of infringement and validity, it is your job to decide the facts of the case. The judge will instruct you about the law, which may include the meaning of certain words or phrases contained in the patent. But it is up to you, as exclusive judges of the facts, to apply the facts as you find them to the law and decide the questions of infringement and validity in the case before you. To prove infringement, the patent holder must persuade you that it is more likely than not that the patent has been infringed. To prove that a patent is invalid, the law requires a higher standard of proof since the PTO has presumed to have done its job correctly. The party accused of infringement must persuade you that it is highly probable that the patent is invalid. Good luck with your task and thank you for your service.

Hello everyone. I'm Monica from CalTV News. I'm out in front of the Campanile asking people what they think stereotypes of a UC Berkeley student are and whether they think they defy that stereotype. So what do you think is a stereotype of a UC Berkeley student? I definitely think a stereotype is that we're pretty smart and intelligent, which I think is a good stereotype to have. Also I do think that it does attract a lot of students in either computing or in CS or in programming. People think UC Berkeley students are all pretty ugly and that everyone's like really smart and really focused on their studies. Very liberal and freestyle, yeah. That's the kind of attitude that I experience every day. I would say Asian students and then white men. I think students here are really hard-working big overachievers and they just like to put their best foot forward in everything that they do. We eat a lot of good food, you know, so we're kind of on the chubby side. Spends most of the time in the library, always in their books, always rushing to class maybe. I think it used to be sort of this radical activist hippie, but it really feels like that's not almost true at all anymore. We always get stereotypes as hippies out here. Liberal, a lot of slogans like freela nipples. I think there's a big nerdy stereotype and also the social justice warrior stereotype. Do you think you fit that stereotype of being liberal and environmentally friendly? I think so. I think I am. I am in the library and I got to say I did Gameway and so I am in the chubby end. I don't know if we'll find the certain type of a hippie, but I do support like the planet, like recycling and observing energy, saving water, definitely. Although I'm a law student, I am supposed to be in the library for all day, but I think I prefer to like, you know, sit anywhere in the campus and enjoy sunshine. I think I defy both stereotypes pretty well. I think I'm pretty good looking, but I'm kind of stupid. You record audio. Go Bears!

Hello, welcome to the course on Quantum Chemistry of Atoms and Molecules. I am Anindya Datta, Professor of Chemistry IIT Bombay. In our institute, we have several courses on Quantum Chemistry. The first one is CH107, Physical Chemistry 1, in which first year BTEC students are introduced to the concept of Quantum Chemistry. This follows a course or half a course on Quantum Physics. Later on, there is CH425, where first year MSc students and third year BS students study Quantum Chemistry in a little more detail. And then there is CH560, which is a more advanced course on Quantum Chemistry. So, when we started thinking of this course, the NPTEL course, I was wondering where we should pitch it. And the initial thought was that it would be at CH107 level. But the way it turned out is that it is somewhat between CH107 and CH425. So, to translate that to people who are not familiar with our course names, this would be appropriate for students in first year MSc or advanced BSc or any BTEC student who would be interested in learning Quantum Chemistry of Atoms and Molecules. So, the beginning of this course is this. For millennia, humankind had asked the question, what is everything made up of? And different civilizations at different times have come up with different answers. About 100 years or so ago, the science of quantum mechanics evolved as the final answer to this question. And application of quantum mechanics very largely is in understanding what atoms and molecules are made up of. As chemists, we are going to focus on this aspect of quantum mechanics. So, this is not really a hardcore quantum mechanics course. We will not go very deep into the mathematics, but we cannot do it without mathematics either because the language of quantum mechanics is really mathematical. But for those who have not studied mathematics or maybe a little scared of mathematics need not worry, because we are going to develop every mathematical tool that we are going to use in this course. This has been elaborated further in the first lecture itself. So, what we will try to do in this course is that we will start with the very basics of quantum mechanics, why quantum mechanics came into existence first of all. And then we will go on and discuss how quantum numbers come. Most of us would know that there are things called quantum numbers, energy is quantized, angular momentum is quantized. But what we have seen is that even after studying MSc, the concept of the origin of quantization is often not clear. In this course, we will try and see whether we can clear that concept. That is where the focus is on. Then we will discuss some simple systems free particle, particle in a box. We will talk about tunneling. We will talk about harmonic oscillator and rigid rotor and then get into the simplest atom, the hydrogen atom. And there we will come upon another fundamental question that most of us would already be familiar with. We are going to discuss what orbitals are. Everybody has heard of orbitals. But most of the time when we ask a student what is an orbital, we get a very popular incorrect answer, more of that in the actual lectures. Then we will go on and talk about multi-electron atoms and then molecules. In course of doing all this, we will learn some approximation methods like variation method and perturbation theory. And quantum mechanics and spectroscopy go hand in hand. Quantum mechanics is theory. Spectroscopy is the experiment. So we will touch upon a little bit of spectroscopy. Not too much. For that there is another NP-12 course that was offered couple of years ago. Those lectures are already available. So this nutshell is the premise of the course. I hope that students who take this course will enjoy it. And also we will get some very basic questions about quantum chemistry cleared. Hope to see a lot of you in the course. Thank you.
