We were familiar with younger boys in rural areas. We used to... After the rains we had to gather in the night with some light in order to capture the insects, which normally come after the rains. And after which the following day we will have our delicious meals eating these insects, it was so good. That ended when we came to urban areas. We find that there was not much of that. Midi laftarens, people are in their homes. The children don't even go out to try to capture those insects. But with this program, what makes me happy is that it's now being brought back right here in the urban areas. So that people will benefit and their nutrition will be improved. So it's a good thing, which is a municipality. We are encouraging and we are supporting to the fullest. Here the young children are normally given maize mail porridge. And it lacks a lot of nutrients. The amino acids are very low. So now if we try to blend the insect a little bit of the insects and the maize mail and see if the porridge is acceptable for children, it can improve on the nutrition. So that's why I bought them. We are going to mail them and make a powder. We've got different indigenous ingredients. We've got different edible insects as well that are found locally. So we realize that a lot of our youths as well as all the other people in Zimbabwe are not really consuming all of these foods as much as we thought they were because there were so many perceptions about these foods being unappealing. They don't have that color, they don't really taste that nice, all of that. So we decided to be very innovative and add value in terms of the variety that these foods are found in. Now the other issue is since we are trying to promote their consumption we have discovered that most of these edible insects are very cis now such that they've been processed in the dried, most of them we use them in dried form so that we can use them when they are out of season. Powdered form, crushed form and so on. We have been so innovative that using even the other local foods which are not edible insects as such but we can combine and come up with a menu which is very interesting. We also realized that it's important to cater for all age groups in terms of product offerings because you'd find that most of the younger generations did not find the indigenous foods quite appealing and in the hotel industry we've got limited starters which are made from indigenous foods and limited desserts so we realized that we need to come up with more variety in terms of the starters and the desserts because yes, anyone can just cook up a main meal but when it comes to other things like snakes and there was little documentation so we decided that it's very important to come up with these indigenous recipes. Some of the tents I can get with the lenses and some of my imponuous gateways so it's another problem which I would have for this area. We did give support in the form of land so that we constructed a market for the insects selling so that they will have some quality to display the insects so that it runs marketable to attract the market and the customers so that we should put quality shoulder for them to have such an attractive market. So when we observed the amount of losses that were being made and also the appalling conditions within the open markets we thought it would be good to create a specialized market that will specifically sell insects as a module in Chinui so that if the users and consumers see this noble course they will perceive it, internalize it and even try to emulate it in other cities within Zimbabwe and even beyond. My name is Blessing Muteidze. I come from Manikaland. We are doing Mopani Wemfaming down there. I think we are the first in Zimbabwe if not in Africa to do Mopani Wemfaming. So we are sitting on a very small area for about 6 hectares I am saying small because it is a bigger area for up to say 20 hectares of Mopani Wemwood lot. So we are doing Mopani Wemfaming. We started in 2014 but up to now we haven't made any meaningful harvest. We have discovered that Mopani Wems are a food source to many creatures the birds, the major obstacle. We have got the lizards, all the lizards. We are thinking that if we put these trees under nets we cover them with nets completely so that no insect can enter even the birds the birds themselves, the lizards then I think you can overcome this problem because Mopani Wem surely is a profitable business once we are done with these insects and the birds.

Understanding the Water-Energy-Food Nexus - Prof. Alan Matthews - 03 Sep 3013
|
This interview with Prof. Alan Matthews, Professor Emeritus of Agricultural Economics at Trinity College Dublin took place at the IIEA after a seminar on "Understanding the Water-Energy-Food Nexus".
More details can be found here http://www.iiea.com/events/understanding-the-water-energy-food-nexus
Understanding the interdependencies between water, energy and food is crucial for policy-makers and business-people, particularly as global population growth places increasing stress on all these sectors. For example, the most recent World Energy Outlook from the IEA in Paris found that water consumption for energy production will double by 2035. This seminar explored the depth of the interconnections between water, energy and food and consider how effective policy can promote the security and sustainability of these essential resources now and in the future.
The seminar was kindly supported by Shell.
About the Speakers:
Karl Falkenberg, Director General in DG Environment at the European Commission since 2009, will deliver the keynote address. Experts from different strands of the Nexus will respond, including: David Norman, Senior Manager for Sustainable Development Policy at SAB Miller, and Prof. Alan Matthews, Professor Emeritus of Agricultural Economics at Trinity College Dublin.

What we've come to realize is that water is as important and becoming a scarce resource for increasing food production as land. Now this is not true everywhere, but it does mean that as we need to increase food production to meet increased population and improving diets, particularly in developing countries, we need to do that while not really increasing our use of water. So we need to find ways of dramatically improving the productivity of water, getting more per drop in the years ahead. In trying to improve productivity of water use, we should distinguish between rain-fed agriculture and irrigated agriculture. About 80% of the world's cultivated area is actually rain-fed. This means that it's subject to erratic rainfall, sometimes you can have too much rain at the wrong time, sometimes you can have droughts. So the key issue in improving water productivity in these soils is to try to find ways of conserving soil moisture, encouraging farmers through management practices like agroforestry, like conservation agriculture, like agro-ecological approaches, through water harvesting methods to store water during the rainy season so it can be used in the dry season. And of course also thinking of ways of breeding more drought tolerant plants so that yields don't collapse when you do have a very dry season. So these are key issues for improving water productivity in rain-fed areas. In irrigated areas the problems are slightly different because here we often find overuse of available water. It means that through the use of tube wells and other instruments which are basically drawing the water from the groundwater supply, so we're not replenishing that groundwater. So we're actually overusing water. We need to again to find ways of encouraging farmers to make better use of the water that they have. And often this will mean introducing, for example, water pricing. It may mean encouraging farmers to change their management practices through more efficient irrigation systems and of course through simply giving farmers a better understanding of the options that they have in terms of the crops that they grow. I think the first step is to create a value around water. So long as water is perceived as a costless commodity, people of course will use it, will waste it. So we must give it a value. And politically this can be very difficult where farmers are used in the past to getting a free supply or subsidized supply of water. And suddenly to be told that now we need to actually start to charge you because the water is getting scarce and there are other competing uses. But water charging on its own is unlikely to solve the problem. In many cases, such as the management of river basins, the management of water in lakes, we need to create new institutions where the various users can come together and agree on what is the sustainable level of exploitation. And that can be a very conflict-driven situation and does require some collective responsibilities and some collective control, if you like, from the government side.

Try this…
1) Sit in a chair
2) Lift your right foot a few inches from the floor and then begin to move it in a clockwise direction.
3) While you’re doing this, use your right index finger to draw a number 6 in the air. Your foot will turn in an anti-clockwise direction and there’s nothing you can do about it!
What’s happening?
The left side of your brain, which controls the right side of your body, is responsible for rhythm and timing. The left side of your brain cannot deal with operating two opposite movements at the same time and so it combines them into a single motion.
Try this with your right foot and left hand and you should have no problem!
I read this and it did not work for me.
THIS effect is partly due to the normal difference in height between hand and foot. That difference, in conjunction with gravity and the earth’s rotation, is enough to affect the body’s highly sensitive limb rotation mechanisms. If you eliminate this difference (for instance, by lying down and holding your right leg and arm at about the same height),your right foot will be unaffected. However, if you reverse this height difference (for instance, by positioning your right leg above your head and your right hand nearer the floor), the effect will be even more marked.This is probably because, with this posture, your head is in a silly position too.

Welcome back to Kids Fun Science. My name is Ken. Today's experiment is why does your foot change direction when you draw the number six? Alright, so to do this experiment you need to sit down in a chair, lift your right foot a few inches from the floor, then begin to move it in a clockwise direction. While you're doing this, use your right index finger and draw the number six in the air. Your foot will turn into an anti-clockwise direction and there's really nothing you can do about it. Alright, before I tell you the science behind this, I'm going to show you the view from behind where I'm doing a clockwise direction with my foot a few inches from the floor and I draw the number six. And no matter how hard I concentrate, it wants to stop or go the opposite direction. Here is Grace giving it a shot. The foot goes the other way. There's her foot. She's concentrating. It's very, very hard and it wants to go the other direction. Alright, so here I am going to give it a shot straight forward and I'm doing my right foot in a clockwise direction and drawing the number six. No matter how hard I try, my foot either goes the other direction or stops every time. It's very frustrating because I should be able to do this. I can multitask. I can chew gum and walk at the same time, but I'm unable to do this. So what's happening here? The science behind this. So the left side of your brain which controls the right side of your body is responsible for rhythm and timing. The left side of your brain cannot deal with operating two opposite movements at the same time. So it combines them together in a single motion which makes your foot go either stop or go the other way with the six. So if you try it with your right foot and your left hand, you shouldn't have a problem. I also read online that this effect is partly due to the normal difference in height between our hand and foot. So it's in difference with the conjunction of the gravity and the earth rotation is enough to affect the body's highly sensitive limb rotation mechanisms. If you eliminate this, for instance, laying down the ground, hold your leg up in your arm about the same height, your right foot will be unaffected. However, if you reverse the height in the distance of the position of your leg higher than your head, then it won't work. I tried this, it does not work. I still could not get my foot to continue to go clockwise. I hope you enjoyed this video. If you did, remember to click thumbs up and subscribe. Thanks for watching.

Felix Chichou, it's difficult for me to find motivation to revise because my dream is to make music and that's not really an industry you can just work towards. It's very luck-based. In large degree, yeah, I agree with you, but persistence is a thing and consistency is a thing. Felix, no matter what you do, you need to start perfecting what you do. You need to be true to yourself and your art. For me, I can tell you just from my thing, there are people that love different aspects of what I do and what I've done. There are people that love the ASMR just the quiet eating and they were pretty pissed off when I started covering current events. There are people who love the mathematics that wish they didn't know about my current events, politics. There are people who love my current events that don't like the ASMR eating stuff. There are people who don't think mathematics is that important but appreciate that it's one thing I'm pushing. There are people that disagree with me on many levels but agree with me on certain crucial levels, fundamental levels. But one thing that's kept me going throughout the last 15 years of blogging online really is consistency and persistence and I've stayed true to my nature of my vision and that garnishes a certain amount of respect from the community. I'm not a huge creator. Some people say they can't believe how few subscribers I have and whatnot. There are people who say I'm full of shit and they can't believe how many subscribers I have. For me, I do this for myself and to better our societies. So whatever you're doing with your music, whatever it might be, blogging, journalism, whatever it might be that you are doing, first and foremost, stay true to yourself. Gang, our new GIF. It worked. Thank you for the follow. I forgot the name. I changed the zombie to the trucker going honk honk. So Felix, that's my advice, right? And have a second gig, have multiple streams of revenue. Gang, I've set this from day one, right? Day one, okay. From day one, decentralize yourself. That means decentralize your sources of information, decentralize your community, decentralize your friends, close friends, make sure they're from all walks of life, decentralize your income, make sure you have multiple streams of revenue coming in because we're in for a hell of a ride, gang. And many people are going to be struggling to make ends meet. And that's where we are right now. So it's not just because it's hard to make money from making music. It's going to be hard to make money from many different things. That's why you also have to have investments, diversified investments, because if you're invested in five different industries, not industries, but five different systems, right? Like stocks, I don't give a rat's ass if you're diversified within the stock market. Stocks are just one system you're investing in. You need to find four more. Right? Because if three of them collapse, you still have two sources of income or two sources of investment. Okay. Really think about what's coming. Kebabs to Felix. Music industry is all about networking. Just look online for events and attend them and network. Yeah. Kebabs is 100% correct, by the way, Felix. Okay. Just to let you know, my partner at a festival that's coming up later this month, she got booked in to play on one stage. Okay. And she reached out and she's playing on three different stages. Okay. At this festival that's going on for four or five days. Right? So she reached out and she's going to play on three different stages and kudos to her right on. Right? You reach out, you have a presence online. You make sure people know you're a human. You're doing this for the love of it. Okay. And you network, you network, and you're kind to people and you help people out as much as you can when people need it. And slowly you build.

If you're the attendee with the initials BK, if you can please use your entire name just for attending purposes and minutes. Okay, so it looks like we are waiting for town of Windsor. Oh no, maybe so. Hold on a second. Drew, I know that Christina Boulart from the town of Windsor will be joining as she sent me an email this morning to that. Okay. And she's new staff there if you're, if you haven't made it. Yeah. Thanks, Paul. I did add her recently for some of our emails. Colin, do you know if Jennifer or Peter are gonna be joining this morning? I would assume the answer is yes, but I have not seen any email or heard anything from them. So I don't have any update on that. Drew, I did receive a message from Christina with towns of Windsor that they're having an invalid meeting ID issue when they try to log on. So I will try resending the information one more time for those that may be running into some type of error. I'm not sure if maybe it's on their side, but I'll go ahead and resend that. So I had the same problem Easter, but the link in the agenda worked, but the one in the email did not. Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. Tell them to click on the agenda link, not the invitation. Okay, thank you. I'll go ahead and send that message right now. It was a little late, Drew. This is Craig. Morning, Craig. Morning. We got, we definitely have a quorum. We're just waiting to see if apparently town of Windsor is trying to join. And then we'll get going. There's Jennifer. Good morning, Jennifer. Good morning. Sorry for being late. It's all right. We'll get started in just a minute. We're trying to see if we can get town of Windsor is trying to get logged in. So we're just waiting another minute. Okay, Easter is Gina on the call too? Yeah, I see. Hi, Gina. Yes, Gina is here. Okay. Let's go ahead and get started. I'll go ahead and call them the meeting to order. It's 904. You're gonna follow my logistics protocol here. Just remind all the TAC members when we're doing roll calls to state their agency in the full name, that'll help Gina or Easter get all the correct information together. And be sure to mute your phones or microphones if you're not speaking. So Easter, are you gonna be doing the roll call or is Gina? I will today. Okay. Why don't you go ahead and get started, please. City of Katari. Craig Scott. City of Petaluma. City of Petaluma, Kent Carruthers. City of Brunner Park. City of Brunner Park, Mary Grace Pausen. City of Santa Rosa. City of Santa Rosa, Jennifer Burke. City of Sonoma. Northruin Water District. Northruin Water District, Drew McIntyre. Town of Windsor. Valley of the Moon Water District. Valley of the Moon Water District, Matt Poehler. And Marin Municipal Water District. Marin Municipal, Paul Sellea. And for staff and public attendees, we have Don Seymour, Pam Jean, Lynn Rizeli, Paul Enclose, Paul Piazza, Barry Dugan, Bob Anderson, Claire Nordley, Margaret DiGenova, Peter Martin, Tony Williams, and Grant Davis. Okay, welcome everybody. Let's say we're gonna go ahead and obviously just follow the agenda here. Agenda item number two is public comments. And so we're now taking public comments on any non-agenda items. So if you wish to make a public comment via Zoom, please raise your hand. Or if you're dialing in via phone number, you can hit star nine to indicate that you will raise your hand. So if you can do so, I'll stand by briefly here to look for any indications from the public. Secretary Perez, do you see anybody indicating that they'd like to make a public comment on an item not on the agenda? There are no raised hands. Thank you. And then let the record note that there were no voicemail messages or any emails that I received on public comments for items that are not on the agenda. So we will move then to agenda item number three, which is two parts here, three A has an attachment. And it's basically water production relative to 2013 benchmark. And we have various tabulations here. If you look at a year-to-date water use, which is the most stable data here for, we're almost completing a full year now. You'll see here that water use compared to the 2013 benchmark is down 10%. Chart two or chart one essentially has a graphical representation of the deliveries and also the gallons per capita per day. And then chart two is the one that shows actual gallons per day per capita for a much longer period, much earlier than 2013. And again, it shows that the partners have invested significantly in water conservation practices and the results are demonstrated quite satisfactorily in terms of looking back at water use in 1995 and where we are through 2019 in terms of overall water use. And this graph also shows that the population increasing over that period as well. So with that, we'll now take any public comments on item three A. So if there's anybody that from the public who would like to speak on this comment, please raise your hand and zoom or hit star nine if you're talking via phone. Secretary Perez, do you see any comments? There are no raised hands for this item. Okay, thank you. And again, there were no questions raised via voicemail or email to me over the weekend. Any other comments from the TAC on agenda item three A? Seeing none, we'll move to three B, just an update on the 2020 urban water management plan and Colin, this is yours. Excellent, thank you so much. So just a quick update as you all will recall, the staff from nine agencies have been working with a consultant together to develop shared methodology for projecting demands out to 2045 and for analyzing our water conservation programs and looking at what shared programs would be preferable. We met with the consultant EKI on November 12th to discuss our draft final reports. So we are in the final stretch here. Six of the final reports have been delivered to retailers, three are in progress. Some agencies did revise some key data inputs or made some assumption changes. So that may impact their demand projections slightly. In addition, this did require some use of contingency funds. I think I've mentioned before that with COVID and fires and a number of issues, we definitely ended up taking more time from EKI than we had originally intended. So final reports will be sent to Sonoma water once I have all of them all set up a one drive folder for those so that Sonoma water can easily download all nine of those at their convenience. And just a couple of outstanding pieces. So that's one part of the work that we do together. There are some other pieces that we do together on the urban water management planning. One of them is the water agency Sonoma water is going to be analyzing their water supply out to 2045 based on our demand projections and they'll be getting back to us. So I did let them know that some of those projections from I think it's going to be about three of the agencies may change slightly. So once I have updated demand projections, I will provide those to Sonoma water and then they can finalize their water supply reliability assessment out to 2045. Another piece is the drought risk assessment. This is a new urban water management plan requirement. This follows on the heels of the drought that we all experienced statewide. The agencies now must assess their water supply reliability for a five year period specifically 2021 to 2025. And they have to assume that the hydrology will be the same as the five driest years on record. So the state held a training on this on December 4th. In the meantime, the nine contractors have been all working together to come up with a shared methodology for estimating our water demands for 2021 to 2025. Obviously we will have the 2025 from our contractor, the consultant that we worked with, excuse me, but we needed to find a way to pro-rate out between our current water use and our projected water use for 2025. So we came up with a methodology. So we will fairly soon be able to send to Sonoma water our projected water demands for 2021 to 2025. So I've asked all of the water contractors to let me know if they could get those to me and then I can compile those and get those to Sonoma water. Another piece of the urban water management plan is that is new. We are now required to provide in our urban water management plan a methodology for analyzing our annual water supply and demand, assuming that the current year would be followed by a dry year. And so we need to include procedures for assessing the reliability of each water supply, each of our sources of water. We will need to turn in the actual assessments until July 1st, 2022. That's when the first assessment will be due but the methodology will be due with the urban water management plan. So I've mentioned this to the partners and I've reached out to Sonoma water and I think all parties are agreed that we'd like to work together on a shared methodology so that there's a regional approach and so that it all makes sense. So Sonoma water is needing to do some internal work coordinating, discussing this new requirement and then they'll reach out to us in scheduled meeting. And then the other piece I wanted to mention on urban water management plans is the SBX7-7 compliance. That was to reduce water use per capita 20% by the year 2020. So in this urban water management plan we will close out our reporting to the state. During this period we'll include a chapter in our urban water management plans that reports how we did on meeting the targets that we set together back in 2015 and any individual targets that each agency made. So during the training on Friday that I attended the DWR staff mentioned that they are aware that some agencies have quite unusual 2020 water use, particularly agencies that have lots of folks who commute out of their area and work elsewhere. Their water use has gone up considerably with shelter and plan. And you'll need to bring your urban water management plan and water shortage contingency plans to your board or council for adoption. And that concludes my update and I'm happy to take any questions that folks might have. Thanks, Colin. Very thorough update. And again, appreciate all your efforts in coordinating this through all the different water contractors. So we'll start first with any comments from the TAC members themselves on Colin's report. I don't see any comments from the TAC. So we'll go ahead and open this up. Again, this is agenda item 3B for any comments on the 2020 Urban Water Management Plan update from the public. If you wish to make a comment, please raise your hand in Zoom or if you're talking via the phone, press star nine. Secretary Perez, did you see any comments? We don't see any hands raised at this time. Okay, thank you, Easter. And let the record reflect that there are no comments that I received via voicemail or email on this agenda item. So that means we move to agenda item number four, water supply conditions and temporary urgency change order updates. Is this gonna be Pam or Dawn? Morning, Drew. Dawn's seeing more, I'll take this one on, okay? Okay, you bet. Good morning, everyone. So starting in the upper watershed, storage at Lake Mendocino is currently just under 30,500 acre feet. And that's a little less than 53% of the target water supply storage for the reservoir. Release is about 115 CFS and that's meeting the minimum stream flow at down a yield of about 110 CFS. It's interesting, we're tracking almost exactly where we were, storage at Lake Mendocino is tracking almost exactly where we were in 2013 for this time of year. At Lake Sonoma, storage is currently about just a little less than 163,400 acre feet. And that's about 67% of the water supply pool. And the releases there are about 160, about 115 CFS and that's meeting the minimum stream down at Hacienda of 160 CFS. We're currently trying to keep those flows about that range right now, because we have Chinook and Steelhead coming into the system and we're trying to make sure that areas where passage is difficult has adequate stage for the fish to get through. And so with that, just wanted to also give an update on the major deviation request. We recently had conversations with the Army Corps. That's moving ahead, but it's likely the timing for that to be approved by the Corps if it is. Keep our fingers crossed is the late January, mid-February timeframe. Kind of as a stock gap measure, Sonoma water requested from the Corps a minor deviation which allows the Corps to, can everybody hear okay? I'm sorry? Yes, I can. Which will store about an additional 5,500 acre feet at their discretion in the flood control pool. And again, that's kind of a stop gap measure in case we're able to get to the top of the water supply pool before the major deviation has been approved by the Corps which we anticipate it will be. With regards to the temperature change order, it expires on December 27th of this month. So we have a couple more weeks of complying with that order. With the dry water supply conditions, we're still facing precipitation is almost exactly where we were this time of year in 2013 going into 2014. So Sonoma water staff is really closely monitoring water supply conditions. Status of Lake Pillsbury, QNU of inflow, which will set the threshold for whether we stay in a dry water supply condition or move into a normal water supply condition which would significantly increase minimum stream flows. So kind of in a wait and see on whether we take additional action going into the new year or out of the new year whether we need to pursue another order. So I don't know if anybody has any questions I'd be happy to answer them. Questions from the tack. John, I have a couple of questions on the release is did I hear you correct it? The release is both at Lake Medesino and Lake Sonoma. They're both at 115 CFS. You're about 115 CFS. Okay. And then the major deviation So that's around what that's around 11,000 acre feet into the water supply or the floods pool. It is, it's about it's about 11,000 acre feet and also includes the cores, new use of, you know, pure road city support tools in managing that water that's in the flood control pool. And because the major deviation is the request was for a five year period. We'll loosen you a little bit. As a stop gap measure. And that's been, that was approved about a week ago. So we're currently operating under the minor deviation which will go away once the major either as a March 15th or when the major major deviation is approved. Okay. And then as far as what was, what's the timeline again as far as when releases would have to be increased? January one is when the water supply condition or the water for the Russian river is reassessed as based on cumulative inflow starting October one through January one at Lake Pillsbury. As of today, that cumulative inflow is just under 4,000 acre feet, which is the trigger has to be under that to be a critical water supply condition. So it's definitely going to go about that into the dry for dry water supply conditions. But the next metric is to become normal for a normal water supply condition would have to exceed 8,000 acre feet. So fairly low bar. So that's why we're going to be keeping a pretty close eye on things. All right, thanks Don. Any other follow-up questions from the tech? Okay, let's open this up to the public. Again, this is agenda item number five water supply conditions. Agenda item number four, water supply conditions and temporary emergency change order update. If anyone from the public has a comment via zoom please raise your hand or press star nine if you're participating via phone. Okay, is it Easter Gina? Any indications of interest on the public on this item? There are no raise hands on the public. All right, thank you. And then let the record reflect that there, I did not receive any emails or voicemails on this agenda item as well. So we're going to move, we're going to move now to agenda item number five, water supply conditions, public outreach messaging, timeline and Paul Piazza, you're in the lead on this. Thanks Drew. So obviously the winter has been dry so far more in terms of the extended forecast not seeing any rain to come. And so it's been on our mind obviously that we want to be prepared for any needed conservation messaging whether it's starting now or early in the spring into summer. And so anticipating that the community and government affairs staff Barry and Andrea along with my staff met to discuss initial work to develop a framework essentially for the implementation of that annual summer ad campaign. And part of this was needed not necessarily because it's a dry year but just to kind of put the workflow in place to make it easier for our staff to develop the thematic messaging on an annual basis and to anticipate what the needs are in terms of the additional review by the partners and the work that actually has to be done to create that campaign in order for it to launch every year in time which traditionally has been the last weekend of May the Memorial Day weekend holiday. So we met once already this month we'll be meeting again in the next couple of weeks. As I mentioned again, essentially it's just to detail the workflow and timeline that we're going to be following each year internally and externally. And then we included in those initial discussions that the thematic content would include multiple tracks essentially anticipating the different and changing hydrologic conditions related to our water rights. So as Dawn was just mentioning we do start monitoring at the beginning of the calendar year based on cumulative inflows whether we're in a normal dry or critical dry hydrologic year. And so initially we were working to use that with developing multiple themes essentially so that as we move further into spring we're able to change and be nimble to the changing hydrologic conditions. And again, as we move further into spring that message becomes a little bit more clear we'll be able to narrow down which of those different themes that we've decided to come up with would be the needed theme for the summer. Start developing some of the campaign materials working with the TAC water conservation subcommittee for initial input and review and then elevating that to the TAC ad hoc before the launch at the end of May. So that's really all we've started doing in that regard. We hope to have a little bit more clarity on those steps in the coming month. But for now, given the dry winter conditions that we're experiencing, although it's too soon to call it a drought we wanna be proactive. So we are gonna be putting together some winter outreach for social media essentially and websites both to put out on cinema waters, social media sites but also to push out to the partnerships so that they have some consistent messaging coming from us to go out to their customers and the idea being that although it's a dry period for winter it's still the case that we wouldn't wanna have supplemental irrigation running except in extreme cases where they may have outdoor potted plants that need a little supplemental irrigation. But otherwise most of the perennial landscapes at this time of year in spite of the low rainfall are in a dormancy period and there's enough moisture in the soil to keep them through the next couple of months. And so we're advocating that people make sure their irrigation system is off for the winter as would be normal for this time. It's also the winter averaging time for many agencies who also provide sewer based on an average monthly indoor water use. So most of the partners are already in the habit of pushing out similar messaging every year to make sure that their customers are not adversely impacting their sewer rates for the coming year. So it'll be a combination of those two messages that we envision going out in the next couple of weeks. And then again as we move further into the winter months depending on how things are looking we'll be making adjustments as we go. So that's all I have on that right now Drew. I'm happy to take questions. Okay, thanks Paul. Questions from the TAC on Paul's report. Paul, do you know, have you? Oh, go ahead Jennifer. All right Drew. Thank you. I did the right hand, but thank you Paul. I appreciate that update and report. You know, I know that we're trying to balance the messaging and I continue to hear that we're tracking the same as 2013. And I believe in 2013 we had already launched a pretty robust winter campaign by this time. So is there, I would like to request I guess if we could put more of a timeline together in terms of conditions and check in point and win that would trigger launching more robust outreach and communication related to where we are and water supply conditions. I don't understand, I have a watch went off. Sorry, my watch went off. And if we could request that the Water Conservation Subcommittee convene and really start looking at what those messaging should be. I know in Santa Rosa we have already put together our winter messaging and have been putting that out, requesting folks to suspend the irrigation and we're doing some supplemental radio ads and a number of things just related to encouraging people to be water smart and water wise. And I'd really like to see more of that throughout the region and kind of what our plan is between now and May. Thanks, Jennifer. Thank you, I appreciate it. Happy to reach out to the Conservation Subcommittee to start talking earlier. As I mentioned previously, our internal discussion, we've only had one meeting to try and lay out a timeline. And working with our staff internally, there are not any indices that I can rely on in December essentially to determine if we're in drought because we had still a long runway in front of us in terms of the opportunity for additional rainfall this winter, but we're certainly keeping a close eye on it and helping to coordinate better with all of the contractors in terms of the messaging that needs to happen. Any other questions from the TAC on this item? So Paul, I think just to follow up with what Jennifer, Jennifer's comments is, you know, I think it would be good if we again just kind of go back and look at towards the end of 2013 and what all was being developed and rolled out in early 2014, just to see, you know, review again that effort and lessons learned back then and how we might operate moving forward, especially as we keep tracking this and updating it. If conditions continue where we don't get any rainfall. So good suggestions, Jennifer. I'm gonna move now to public comment on this item. Again, this is agenda item number five for water supply conditions, public outreach messaging timeline. And so if you're participating via Zoom and wish to make a comment, please raise your hand. If you're participating via the telephone, you can hit star nine. Easter or Gina, you see any comments from the public? There are no raise hands. Okay, thanks Gina and let the record reflect that I did not receive any comments from the public via voicemail or email as well. So that brings us to agenda item number six, biological opinion status update. Pam, I think that'll be yours. And then before turning it over to you, Pam, I just wanna encourage the TAC members, especially while I'm encouraging you to mute your phones. Please, if you can participate via video it always helps show the strength of the group visually. So with that, Pam, I'll go ahead and turn it over to you. Okay, I don't know who put this up, but thank you, whoever that was. Hopefully everybody got this in their agenda packet. And there's some great photos included in this particular update of the biological opinion implementation. I'm just gonna hit some highlights. I'm not gonna read it all, it's quite lengthy. So I'll start off with the Fishflow and Water Rights Project, which we commonly call the Fishflow Project. That project, we continue to work on the draft environmental impact report with the expectation of recirculating the draft in the spring of this year. So that is ongoing. And other than that, there's really not any major changes there. As far as the Dry Creek Habitat Enhancement Project goes, our contractor that was out there working this year is wrapped up now. They completed the project elements that were required to be done in 2020. And they ended up actually working beyond the normal October 15th date that is allowed by permits because it was so dry. So we got extensions from the regional board and California Department of Fish and Wildlife. So they kept working through November 6th and got the work done that they needed to get done. There is still work on two remaining projects for next year in that phase three portion of the project. So we do expect that to start in the summer of 2021. That same contractor, which is Hanford also completed some maintenance activities for us on four locations out on Dry Creek. And that was mostly to remove sediment that was deposited in February, March of 2019 during the pretty high rainfall and high flooding at that point. They also repaired some minor erosion and a few other things. So that work also got completed this year. As that work was going on, we were also working with the Corps of Engineers to make progress on phases four through six of the Habitat Enhancement Project. And they're continuing to work on right of way out there and are currently reviewing the 99% design documents and preparing bid packages. So the big bid package is hopefully gonna include construction for 2021. It's a very fast timeframe, but they're hoping to get there. And just in last month, I believe it was our board approved a project partnership agreement. This is a formal agreement with the Corps of Engineers that describes financial terms, roles and responsibilities of this project which is a core led project. So we expect the Corps to approve that public, sorry, that project partnership agreement in early December, early this month. There's quite a nice little write up in here about fish monitoring and what's going on out there. Of course, one of the purposes of the Dry Creek Habitat Enhancement Project is to create Habitat for Coho salmon. Because there are so few Coho salmon out in the watershed, it's kind of hard to validate exactly what's going on. So we do, however, I think everybody is aware of the brood stock program at Lake Sonoma at the Hatchery. And so when they take those fish and they out plant them, the small fish, the juveniles out plant them into tributaries to Dry Creek and the Rush River. They tried something, I don't know if it was new just this year, but where they took those fish and the young fish that you see in this photograph here and they've kept them in those tributaries in cages for a few days in order for them to sort of imprint or get used to the water that they were in. And they found that instead of having the fish leave those locations, which are habitat, they're enhanced locations, they're meant to be occupied by these young fish. They actually had a larger percentage of them stay in that location to rear. So it seemed like a pretty good program and there's a nice little write up in here about that. And it sounds like they're working on improving that as they go along. Next item in here is the Rush River Estuary Management Project. The management period ended on October 15th and the river mouth is currently closed. And we do have an expectation to be out there later this week on Thursday to mechanically breach the estuary, the sand bar across the estuary, assuming that physically they can get equipment out on out there. So that we spoke with the resource agencies just last week about this and that's the current plan is to go out and to breach it mechanically on Thursday this week. And I think Don already talked about interim flow changes and the temporary urgency change order, which expires at the end of this month. So I won't speak to that and I'm happy to answer any questions. Thanks Pam. Any questions from the TAC on Pam's report? I don't see any hands raised. Pam, just a couple comments. I was happy to see and I can't remember if this was discussed previously, but on the cores project for their construction on the bid packages being worked on, I was happy to see that there's an option for constructing the remaining sites. So that potentially everything could be done kind of during, I assume, is through one bid effort and not go out multiple times depending upon what those options come back on. Is that, do you know, is that the intent then to try to streamline then the number of times the projects have to go out to bid? Yeah, I don't, I honestly drew, I don't know. I don't know, Grant, if you know any of the details about that. It has been discussed, I think they're working through a number of different provisions, but ideally if they could lump it together, that would be a significant savings. I'm not sure whether that option's actually the preferred option at this stage though. Okay, and then just related to that, it indicates that the cores San Francisco district office is supposed to sign off on that project partnership agreement. Has that happened yet? Hi. We actually had the general up to view the Dry Creek Habitat Restoration Project as he was touring Lake Sonoma with his staff. And we had the board chair, Susan Gorin, sign it on our end. It turns out that they need to go through a, what is a customary step on a congressional side to notify Congress they're actually doing this. So I think that step actually has to still take place, but it's eminent, it will happen. We hope to do it in a larger way, but just too many things can conspire against us. But I will take this point just to say that Jay and Dave Manning had an opportunity to brief the general and the colonel and staff involved with things like the major deviation, forecasting for reservoir operations and whatnot. So it's just pretty good, solid relationship building with the core at this stage. So really a lot of work to staff on both organizations. Okay, thanks Grant. And then Grant, can you remind us again with the colonel? So this is the colonel that's based out of the San Francisco office, correct? And this is, they rotate every so many years in this particular individuals on what year two now? Yeah, I think so, believe it or not, entering into year two. So it's damn near impossible to keep up. I think that probably looking at 20 of these changing of the guards, it's just so rare. In fact, you guys know this, that we have Len Cardoza, who used to be the colonel for the district in San Francisco on contract through Interflue to stay on top of running our XCOM meetings and making sure that all the stuff we've done over the years takes place because one of the thinking is, Len knows core speak better than anybody and can stay on top and can get through the red tape unlike others. It's nothing like having a colonel that's been through the ropes, but forgive me, all of us, it just seems like whiplash every two years, you're welcoming somebody new and sending one off. And it's hard because you have to reeducate much of the leadership at that time and it takes time and effort. Yes, that was a good idea to tap a past colonel to help continue on. Any other questions from the tack on this item before we open it up to the public? Okay, we'll now open this. This is agenda item number six, biological opinion status update. We're looking for any public comments on this item. If you wish to make a comment via Zoom, please raise your hand. Or if you're dialing via telephone, you can hit star nine. I'll take a brief pause here to look for any questions, comments. Gina or Easter, do you see any comments from the public? There are no raise hands for this item. All right, thanks, Gina. We will now move to agenda item number seven, Potter Valley project relicensing updates. Pam, is that gonna be you? Sure, thank you. So we are in early December now. In mid-November, all interested stakeholders, agencies, et cetera, filed comment letters with FERC on the initial study report that was released in September. And the meeting notes from the meeting that was held, I can't remember if it was now September or October when that meeting was held. And so that, again, was mid-December that those were all filed. We've been working very diligently since, well, even before they were all filed, but diligently to respond to all of the comments that were made and our response to comments are due as the two basin solution partners due to FERC on December 14th. Following December 14th in mid-January, we expect that FERC will issue a study plan determination. And at that point, we will have hopefully a full picture of what they expect in terms of studies in order to move us towards a licensing proposal and a licensed application that's a couple years out. So right now we're working, as I said, very hard to get our response comments document done. It's always an interesting thing to have five different entities reviewing and commenting on things, but we're working at it. And we're also working on making sure that we have a pretty good understanding as a group of what priorities, what studies are a priority and what order they all need to go in, et cetera, in order to help us with funding them. So funding's gonna be a big deal. We're working on that and trying to make sure that we're doing the most important things first in terms of the studies. But again, we won't have that study plan determination until about mid-January, and then we'll know exactly what we're gonna be required to do by FERC, so I think that's about it for me, Drew, unless there's any questions. Thanks, Pam. Questions from the TAC on Pam's report? Pam, any new communication at all from FERC staff over the last month or so? No, we really haven't had any contact with them beyond after the initial study report meeting was held. We did talk to them just to check in with them, make sure that they were okay with the way it went, and check to see if they had any questions or anything. So, and since then, we haven't heard from them. Kind of, I know we've gotten questions about scoping document four, and we don't have a timeline from them on that at this point, so I'm not sure what their timeline is. Well, you answered my scoping document number four question already, so thank you. Any other questions from the TAC before I open this up to the public? I don't see anything, so we are going to open up a general item number seven, Potter Valley Project re-licensing update to the public for any comments. If you wish to make a comment via Zoom, please raise your hand or press star nine if you're participating via phone. I'll take a brief pause here. Drew, I do have one member of the public, David Keller, and I'm going to allow you to speak. Morning, David. Good morning. Nice to see all you guys and hope everybody's healthy and staying safe. Thank you. And so speaking for Friends of the Eel River, we're working with Caltroud through our NDA with them. So I have a couple of questions. The first one is on response to Congressman Garamendi's letter and the pressure coming out of Lake County to keep Lake Pillsbury and keep Scott Tam. And so I'm wondering if the agency has any specific outreach to Congressman Garamendi and Lake County interests, including supervisors, pushing back on their demands that Lake Pillsbury and Scott Tam be retained, which of course is not at all compliant with the two basins solution. So just Pam, is there any specific outreach that you guys are doing? Well, David, the partners have met with Lake County supervisors, the principals from the partners. I don't think it's specifically to tell them what you just said, but we do continue to meet with them. Sorry. Sure. There was supposed to be a meeting of that group set up earlier in the early part of this month. I haven't heard whether or not it has been set up or not. But there is definitely dialogue going on. And I think that the Lake County supervisors are pretty clear about what they would like to see. And I think the partners have been pretty clear about what the current plan is. So that's kind of where it's at. Do the Lake County soups express any understanding or recognition of the costs and liabilities of trying to keep Scott Tam? Brian? Yes, they do. We've made that part of our discussions. What prompted us to have to take action at this stage. Doesn't mean that they subscribe to that same point of view, but they've made their case to first pretty clear as supervisors and they've obviously got a strong year in the congressman who represents that portion that's his district. Right. Yeah, and looking at his letter, it seems fairly uninformed regarding some of the liabilities and problems with Scott Tam. So I appreciate any continued strong pushback to both his staff directly to him as well as to the Lake County supervisors. The other concern that we have is about the engagement of Russian River break growers and wineries who I'm not sure if it's a specific formal or informal outreach to them about understanding changes that may or may not come. We know that there's a fair amount of misinformation out there and wondering if the agency is doing any specific outreach to push back on that. So we are working on an outreach strategy, so to speak with regards to not just Sonata County but Mendocino County and some outreach has happened in terms of trying to understand what folks know and what they don't know and we're moving forward with that but there is no formal process right now, I guess you can say. Yeah, and one of the, I appreciate that. Kambigos, one of the things that obviously needs to be addressed is how do you guys pay for, or we all pay for all the studies to move forward and given the $2 billion grape industry in both counties, it seems like there's, should be if there's understanding and as beneficiaries of water transfers, there should be, I would love to see some formal conversations with them on setting up some kind of structure to be able to tap into their profits, shall we say, from converting water to wine. And I'm hoping that that's part of the conversation with them. Difficult one, but nevertheless critical. David, I guess I feel like commenting is one of the folks that works with Cal Trout on this and communicating directly to you that that is far more difficult to do than maybe realized. And that's why this takes time and it will take a concerted effort. We've been meeting for many years but to achieve something like that and to say we'd like to top your profits and keep this going is far more difficult than some of our environmental colleagues think. And it's quite a challenge. So I'd appreciate a little bit better understanding when you say that the Congressman has a lack of awareness on what it's gonna take the Polo Regional Solution off, I would say this is another part of it that is gonna be extraordinarily difficult and take time and energy and a lot more information exchanged. Yeah, I'm fully cognizant and appreciate that Grant and it's one of the conversations that we have on a continuing basis of what would be the vehicle, how would it get established to be able to gather some of the expenses from that industry. And so yes, I fully appreciate that and recognize exactly what you're saying. This is not going to be an easy task but necessary. So do appreciate that and do appreciate the outreach that you're doing. We're concerned as well about the continued resistance in looking at studying the issues of Cape Horn Dam which might involve redesign or full removal and replacement. And we think that's a very important piece to go forward as part of the two-basin solution. Okay, thank you, David. Any other questions from the public on this topic? Gina, let the record reflect that I did not receive any public comments via voicemail or email on this topic as well. So moving on, that brings us to agenda item number eight. FY20 Sonoma County Water Agency budget year-in review and Lynn Razzelli is going to be giving this. So Lynn. Good morning, everyone at the tack. I'm Lynn Razzelli, Administrative Services Division Manager for Sonoma Water and I believe Easter is going to be bringing up the presentation for everyone to see. There we go. Okay, so we have prepared a brief presentation doing a financial recap of fiscal year 1920 budget versus actuals for revenues, expenditures and water deliveries. Can you go to the next slide please? So we're going to start off with water deliveries because those from the basis of the rate and the revenue that we receive, we receive about 90% of our revenues in water sales. There was an increase or actuals of 45,649 acre feet actually delivered through June 30th, 2020, 4.1% increase over what was originally budgeted. The original budget was based on 12 months of water deliveries through December, 2018. And for those who may not be familiar with our fiscal year, it runs from, this 1920 would run from July, 2019 through June, 2020. And for, so our deliveries are remaining in that 45,000 acre feet in deliveries, actual deliveries. We're anticipating that we are beginning to prepare the fiscal year 21-22 budget and we're expecting somewhere in the range of 45,000 acre feet, it will be based on the three-year annual average water deliveries. We believe we don't have all the water data in yet but that's where we think we're going to land for the fiscal year 21-22 budget. So let's go to the next slide, please. And so here we can see that the revenues were 5.65 million higher than budget of 42.67 million. The budget is the 48 million that we had for actual revenues, 90% of that or more is made up of the water rates and the water sales. But and because we delivered a little bit more water, 1,780 acre feet more than the budget that increased our revenues by about 2 million. The remainder of that increase that you're seeing there that 5.65 million is due to grants and interest earnings and other miscellaneous revenues that either were not included in the budget or were not envisioned in the budget at the time. And then on the expenditure side, we have a 13.26 million less in expenditures than budgeted. And in the subsequent slides, we'll go into some detail about where we expended our funds for our budget for fiscal year 1920. Next slide, please. So this is just a pie chart to give you an example or show you visually how we expended the funds, 63% were spent in operations and maintenance. In capital projects, we spent 9%. The budget that we showed you back in 1920, well, back in 1819 for the 1920 budget showed about operations and maintenance at 53% and capital projects at 21%. So there was a big switch there between operations and maintenance and capital projects where we spent a greater portion of our expenditures on operations and maintenance and less on capital projects. And we'll go into that in a minute. We'll on a subsequent slide. Next slide, please. So this slide tells you by function, how we expended our funds. We spent three million less in operations and maintenance. And that is largely due to the tank maintenance agreement not having been signed and negotiated and board approved at the time. Capital projects were 7.39 million less than budgeted. That's a big difference there. That is due in part because of the FEMA NEPA delays on the hazard mitigation projects. And because the capital projects did not get awarded, yet construction had been budgeted. And the biological opinion compliance, water supply planning and water conservation, there was 2.2 million less in expenditures than budget. And that is due largely to the Dry Creek Habitat Enhancement right away negotiations being delayed. And that's probably in part due, some of this is in part due to COVID, but also just generally due to the challenges with negotiating right of way agreements for the Dry Creek Habitat Enhancement Project. And then on the debt service side, we had 550,000 less than budget. And we had a decrease there because we issued slightly less in revenue bonds than we had anticipated. And there'll be another slide that shows some information on that. Next slide, please. So here we're showing what we did with the budget of 24.35 million. Most of that budget is for routine maintenance. The projects, the summary of some of the subset of projects and studies that we work on are shown here. Those made up about 2 million in expenditures out of that 24.35 million. So really the majority of expenditures and operations and maintenance is routine maintenance. Next slide, please. And on the capital projects expenditure side, we had 3.58 million in expenditures. The good news here is that we were able to advance capital project designs and the majority of these will be going to construction in this fiscal year or next fiscal year. We spent in 1920, we spent about 750,000 on hazard mitigation projects and the remaining 2.84 million on other capital projects that are shown here. And then we awarded two capital projects, the Sonoma Booster Pump Station, Seismic, Electrical and Pumping Upgrade Project, which is still in progress and the Water Transmission System Equipment Building. Next slide, please. And these are our sub fund expenses. We have four sub funds, water management, recycled water, local supply, watershed planning and restoration and water conservation. We spent $30,000 on the Urban Water Management Plan. Obviously more will be spent this fiscal year because the Urban Water Management Plan is due on July 1st, 2021. And on watershed planning and restoration, we spent 3.8 million. The majority of that was spent on the Dry Creek Habitat Enhancement Projects miles four, five and six. For recycled water and local supply, we spent 362,000 on the Marin Municipal Water District LRT2 project, the final leg of that project that was completed. And we spent 2.1 million in water conservation for water education and water conservation and the Sonoma Marin Saving Partnership. Next slide, please. So for debt service, we spent 4.29 million. We expend approximately plus or minus one million in debt service on each one of these. We had the State Revolving Loan Fund and then the three water revenue bonds. The 2019 water revenue bonds were issued in early July of 2019. And we issued those 2.4% interest rate. We received a rating increase from S&P from AA plus to AAA on those revenue bonds. And so that certainly helped us get a very good interest rate. And next slide, please. So the next steps where we're going forward here, we're already working on the 21-22 water transmission budget and rates. We anticipate providing that to the TAC ad hoc budget subcommittee by January 15th, by middle of January. Then we then provide the draft budget to the TAC ad hoc on Monday, February 1st. The TAC votes on the budget and rates on Monday, March 1st. We present the budget to city councils and district boards as requested during the month of March. And then the water advisory committee will vote on the budget and rates on April 5th. And then it will be adopted by our board in April, usually in mid-April. It has to be done before April 30th in accordance with the restructured agreement for orders applied. And that is all I have. I'm happy to answer any questions you have. Thank you, Lynn. I will open this up first for any questions from the TAC. Don't see. Lynn, it's for you with city epsilon. Oh, sorry not to raise my hand and all that, just to interrupt. So anyways, I appreciate the update, Lynn, on financing a lot of the water contractors faced an increase in costs for buying water this fiscal year, but didn't increase the rates to our customers. I know in Sonoma we differed our rate increase for six months, just understanding the economic impacts of the pandemic on the community. And so it'll be really interesting looking at next fiscal year's budget and look forward to more budget info coming up. Thanks, Fergie. Any other questions from the TAC? Lynn, I have a couple of questions and then Easter, Gina, if you can pull up that presentation, I'm gonna refer to a couple of different slides by their numbers. If you could go to slide number four, which has a pie chart, perfect. Lynn, on debt service does the, so the debt service is about 11% of the FY20 budget. Is there a debt management policy that the agency has and how does this reflect overall debt right now? How does it reflect per what the agency has for policy? Well, the agency follows the county debt management policy and I don't recall the exact percentage that is in that policy, but certainly we were able to get a very good rating from S&P for issuing the bonds. And there was no concern regarding that debt level. And we also just recently had a review, a surveillance from Fitch and they also indicated that this debt service amount is not of concern. It is a reasonable amount. I just don't recall off the top of my head what the county policy percentages are, but we were certainly approved by the county debt advisory committee to move forward with our issuance of bonds and they reviewed all of our bonds at that time. Okay, thanks, Lynn. And can we go to slide six? So, Lynn, you had indicated that the O&M budget expenditures were lower primarily just with a slower start on the tank maintenance program. Correct? Yes. And is the Forestville tank recode that is underway though? I believe that project is actually completed. So it was certainly in progress and awarded and I think it was awarded in probably 18, 19, but it was very much in progress in 1920 and I believe it has been completed. That's right. Okay, and then moving on to slide seven on the capital project expenditures. Okay, so on the capital projects, is it safe to say that one of the biggest projects that resulted in significantly lower expenditures was the Warm Springs dam hydro turbine retrofit? The Warm Springs dam hydro turbine retrofit is about a $1.2 million project. I would say that the Russian River Crossing project is probably the largest of those projects there right now in terms of when it goes to construction and it's actually been bid, it has not been awarded and that is a large project that had construction budgeted but had not been awarded in 1920. Okay. But it's expected to be awarded this fiscal year. And then any, Pam, can you give, do you have any updated on the bladder replacement? Yeah, my recollection and grant maybe, you can correct me if I'm wrong, is that we bid the project, we didn't accept any of the bids, we bid the project just recently and bids were not really any better. So I would expect that they're gonna go ahead and award that and it should be under construction this summer. The bladder itself, the fabric for the dam is on site. It was delivered, I don't remember what month, it's on site. And of course, one of the decisions on that was not just the cost, it was whether or not we were actually gonna receive the rubber bladder from China, it continued to be promised and get sliding back. So during COVID, this was a risk and it's one of those things that we decided to err on the side of caution and weigh back and implement the project this coming year. Would you do have the bladder now? We do. Okay, let's see if I had any other, yeah, those were my questions. So thanks, Lynn, Pam, Grant, and I will open up this agenda item for public comment. Again, this is agenda item number eight, FY20, SCWA budget year in review. So if anybody in the public would like to make a comment, please raise your hand via Zoom or hit star nine on your phone. I'll take a brief pause. Easter or Gina, any? There are no raise hands for this item. Okay, thank you. And let the record show that there were no comments that I received via email nor voicemail on agenda item number eight as well. So we're getting to the close here. The last item is just agenda items for the next meeting, which is January 4th. I just wanna remind everybody that the 2021 WAC-TAC schedule is that was approved at the last WAC-TAC meeting is, if it isn't posted, will be posted on the agency's website any day now in case you're trying to find ready access to that. And in addition to our regularly ongoing items, there will be a couple items related to the engineering or the emergency training and coordination group, some updates on new alerts, alert system and emergency parts items as well. So any other things that the TAC wants to have included on the agenda above and beyond what's mentioned. Okay, any final comments from the public on agenda item nine, just in terms of the January 4th agenda items. Again, if you wish to make a comment, please raise your hand and zoom or hit dial or dial star nine on your phone. Gina or Easter, do you see any comments from the public? There are no raise hands for this item. Okay, again, thanks everybody. It's 10, 18, the meeting is adjourned. Hope everybody has a good week. See you later. Thanks Drew, bye everybody.

Свалявшиеся жирные клаки шерсти козы в Руне, Пашм, шерсть кашмирской козы, Пашмина или Кашемир с незапамятных времен вызывали ажиотаж. С ней велись войны, она была показателем статуса в обществе, ее дарили и с удовольствием получали в виде подарка. Даже в святых книгах Ведах, Ромаяне, а также других древних священных писаниях вы отыщите упоминания о ней. Географически история Пашмины взяла свое начало на этих высоких горах. В Риг Веде описывается идеальная шерсть страны Сидху или Индуз, речной бассейн и место вокруг реки Ировати в Рави, как называемый его сейчас. Там также упомянута, что овцы самого большого региона Гангхара, известные как Ави, имеют самую лучшую шерсть. Возможно даже, что это не тронутое наследство. В то время как лучший Пашм поступает сладоко, одни из самых мягких шалей ручной работы делаются в Башоле, неизвестном городке на берегу реки Ирови возле джаму. Никто об этом не знает, но шали из Пашмины здесь до сих пор ткутся по старинке. Искусно сделанные шали Кошмирской долины, одни из самых знаменитых во всем мире. С места ее возникновения, с долины Индуз, Пашмина распространилась повсюду. Пошелковому пути дошала, как ее называли на Хинди, достигла Среднего Востока, где ее называли шал, а потом она стала шалью, путешествуя дальше на Запад, и европейские члены королевских фамилий начали уютно заворачиваться в мягкую ткань. Ее притягательность оставалась той же, а технология и дизайн продолжали развиваться и становились более продуманными и сложными. Измененный дизайн чаще всего отображал политические настроения. Иногда даже короревские прихоти и капризы были изображены на этих шалях, как на карте. Эти шали были настолько популярны в 18 веке, что английские и французские фабриканты с помощью машин начали массово их выпускать. Хотя в Индии традиционно для того, чтобы сделать одну шаль на разных этапах производства, чаще всего вовлекается вся семья, и весь процесс иногда длится до года. Женщины, особенно пожилые, вычесывают пашмину, подготавливая ее к плетению. После этого мужчины плетут и красят шали. Украшение и вышивку, как правило, делают и мужчины, и женщины. В этой истории о пашмине пашм или шерсть кошмирской козы до сих пор привозится с этих снежных вершин, и в умелых руках превращается в прекрасные шали, сплетенные или вышитые амби или пейсли, но ли б мотивом Индии продолжают оставаться прекрасные дизайны, которыми украшают эти шали. Что-то все-таки не меняется вместе со временем.

You know forgiveness is not an act of indulgence That'd be patronizing Forgiveness comes it's another part of sanity it comes from Accurately seeing the human being, you know, Jesus on the cross was reported to have said Forgive them father for they know not what they do In their reality They thought they were doing a good thing. Yep by nailing this criminal This disturber of the peace or whatever, you know up to the cross Maybe some part of them knew better But they did not really know what they were doing so we have to understand that that like whatever people have done To themselves to other people to their children whatever to ecosystems, you know to to Anything if I were in their shoes With the information that they had and the life experiences that they had I Probably do the same thing. Mm-hmm. Do I think I'm made of better stuff than them? No so forgiveness is this is the is the consequence of Actually seeing that in a moment. Yeah It's a consequence of understanding and if you don't have the understanding then the forgiveness you can try to forgive But if you don't have that moment of soul-to-soul contact Where oh, I understand Then the forgiveness will be fake

introductions it's now time for member statements the member from Leeds Grenville thank you speaker I rise in support of parents students and rural communities in a desperate fight to save their schools 10 schools in Leeds Grenville are among the 29 identified for closure by the upper Canada district school board hundreds more are at risk in communities across Ontario speaker this is not just about saving individual schools it's a fight for the future of rural education and the ability of students to learn close to where they live last week I wrote the Minister of Education and called on her to do two things restore the top-up funding they cut to put so many schools on the chopping block and suspend the rig process this government manipulated to allow boards to fast-track closures I've also asked the upper Canada trustees to support my request by resolution and to suspend their accommodation review I will not allow this government to sit on the sidelines as communities are thrown into turmoil no one disputes the need to discuss the future of education in a time of declining enrollment but we demand speaker a fair process let's take the target off schools and work with parents boards municipalities and MPPs from all parties to develop a long term solution if this government chooses to sit back and allow these schools to close it will be too late speaker if they value rural education they must act now thousands of parents and students await a response thank you speaker thank you Mr. Speaker a few things on issues of galvanized Ontarians like the plight of the young indigenous inmate Adam Capay Adam 23 years old has been in solitary confinement in an Ontario provincial prison for four years he's housed alone in a basement at the end of a long quarter in a cell sheathed in plexiglass the lights are on 24 hours a day he's they found him in fact to have memory orientation speech problems brought on by his prison conditions prison conditions by the way Mr. Speaker that are considered torture by the UN and others he's also legally innocent he was charged with first-degree murder in 2012 but he has not been tried the Supreme Court of Canada says that any delay between the laying of charges and the completion of trial longer than 30 months is a violation of an accused person's charter right to be tried within a reasonable time he's been held without trial for 52 months we give thanks to the prison guard who brought this plight to the attention of Ontario's chief human rights commissioner but it shouldn't have to take that Mr. Speaker this is egregious this makes us look terrible on a world stage this is terrible and the public demand is immediate it that the inhuman treatment of him be at that he be released from solitary given medical care by the end of this week not just for an interim period and that those who allowed this to happen be held to account thank you thank you for the members David's the member for Mississauga Brampton South Mr. Speaker I'm pleased to share with this house a much anticipated and exciting news on October 26 the constituents of my great writing of Mississauga and Brampton South and surrounding communities learned that our government will be bringing a university led post secondary site to Brampton this initiative by our government is significant as it will pave way for coming generations towards better and brighter future through higher learning the institution's main focus will be on science technology engineering arts and mathematics as interior moves towards a technology and knowledge based economy this institution will prepare students for jobs of today and jobs of tomorrow and offer them opportunities for training and skills development needed for leading sectors of our economy this institution will also address the needs of an underserved but fast growing population area and ensure that students find more educational opportunities closer to home Mr. Speaker Bramptonians are excited about our government's this initiative towards building dynamic and vibrant communities and great places to live work and study thank you Mr. Speaker thank you for the members that was the member Bruce Gray on sound thank you very much Mr. Speaker I rise today to offer congratulations and appreciation to Marilyn Morris her organizing committee and volunteers who ensured the 20th annual meford scarecrow invasion and family festival was a huge success in my riding of Bruce Gray own sound 300 scarecrow's took to the streets on the September 30th in celebration of the fall harvest and the town was decorated to the nines with scarecrow's hanging from every streetlight and pole in the community the OPP Golden Helmet motorcycle riders even had scarecrow's adorning their bikes during their performance since its inception in 1996 this family event has become a popular destination for locals and tourists and has received both community and provincial awards ranking as one of Ontario's top events all the hard work and dedication by the organizers the hundreds of volunteers the generosity of sponsors and the enthusiasm of the entire community is the reason why the scarecrow invasion and family festival has earned this recognition over the past 20 years in 2002 the scarecrow invasion tried to challenge the record for most scarecrow's in the Guinness Book of World Records meford created 2221 scarecrow's but the record was not achieved now in its 20th year the invasion has 300 volunteers dedicating over 3,000 hours Mr. Speaker I would also like to pay special tribute to a meford businessman who is honored for his role in starting the scarecrow invasion 20 years ago George Patopnik was one of the 60 to 70 guests attending the 20th anniversary of the scarecrow invasion and family festival in the gallery of meford Hall I invite the house to join me in congratulating Marilyn Morris George Patopnik and the entire meford community for ensuring the meford scarecrow invasion and family festival achieved top honors and wish them much continued success thank you for the member statements the member from London Fanshawe speaker I'm honored to speak today about a private project happening in my riding the program is called positive voice and it has been organized by the staff at the no key quay employment and education center in London Fanshawe the main philosophy of the program aims to provide a safe space for the mentorship and empowerment of urban aboriginal women the organizer achieve organizers achieve this through assisting aboriginal women in developing positive life narratives and positive community connections through the use of media and technologies the program helps to empower women participants as they transition into different educational or employment opportunities I recently visited the center and attended one of their sessions I was immediately impressed and captivated by the women I met and the enormous impact the program has in their lives the women I met came from different places and backgrounds they range in age from their early 20s to their early 50s to their 50s they had all overcome their own individual adversities but they all shared a common goal to succeed in the next chapter of their lives it was clear this program was helping them to do just that I would like to commend no key quay and the organizers of the positive voice program for providing women the opportunity to share their stories develop their skills and find the confidence in their abilities to succeed thank you speaker for their member statements the member from Davenport you mr. Speaker and I rise today to extend my congratulations and best wishes to Oslington Pentecostal Church for my writing of Davenport they'll be celebrating their 60th anniversary this weekend in particular I would like to congratulate the congregation who will be holding a fantastic celebration with a mass and a reception Osington Pentecostal Church is a member of the Canadian assemblies of God and our biblically-centered congregation of believers who come from a wide variety of nationalities and cultures yet they all share one thing in common they worship Jesus Christ the family congregation of the Osington Pentecostal Church was a part of the first Italian work in 1922 that was called Assemblea Cristiana under the combined leadership of Reverend Fernando Safuto and Reverend Luigi Polito in 1956 a group for the Assemblea Cristiana built and established the church that exists today located at 686 Osington Avenue in February 2003 Reverend David Quackenbosch joined Osington Pentecostal Church to shepherd the congregation today all sorts of people joined this church in prayer on Sundays and are currently going under renovations to the facility to accommodate and better service the members of the community and as the member of Provincial Parliament for Davenport I'm privileged to represent a number of very active and engaged constituents including the religious community of Osington Pentecostal Church and I want to thank them and the congregation for the commitment to our community thank you Mr. Speaker thank you very much mr. Speaker we're all wearing our poppies today and it's so wonderful to see Remembrance days next week and it's a sad and solemn time but it really brings the communities together I want to read a it's a poem but actually a song but I'm going to spare you my singing voice I know we're not allowed to sing here mr. Speaker it's by my niece Ella Gladstone Martin and it's called Don't Let Me Be Forgotten poppies don't grow on hidden graves am I the only only worth something when I can be brave we can't surrender less we regret we must remember less we forget don't let me be forgotten don't let me fall behind because there's no running from the battle waging inside my mind these wounds take time to heal before my scars can just scab and heal don't ask me why I do not know it's much too soon to say goodbye but you just stand there and watch me go don't let me be forgotten don't let me fall behind because there's no running from the battle waging inside my mind I put you first now aren't I worth just a bit of your time if you give me your hand I will give you mine don't let me be forgotten don't let me fall behind because there's no running from the battle waging in my mind so let's all remember today and next week which hopefully we're going to be bringing forward this week to have remembrance week as the schools often do commemorate things and the legions for the whole week of remembrance day let's remember let's not forget and let's remember also what they were fighting for our democracy thank you mr. and compliments to your niece further member statements the member from to miss me cockpit thank you speaker for the first time in my time in literature I'm going to quote a Toronto star headline mighty Ontario moose need our help to survive and as a representative of people who moose hunting as part of our culture I think moose hunters across the province no one wants the long-term survival of the moose more than the population who have hunting as part of their heritage and there's some things that the government and it's not all the government's fault but there's some things that the government could do immediately to help with this and it is it is a crisis the first thing is adequately fund the M&R because in my part of the world we have two conservation officers over 50 townships so you cannot manage a population wildlife population when your spread so thin the M&R has to take steps to actually make accurate counts of the moose unit 28 the most heavily hunted area there's supposed to be a count every three years and they did it over five years again if this is a crisis we need to spend the time and the money to do this right all moose all moose harvest it should be reported regardless of who harvest them and there's a kind of a funny line in here it says in some parts of the province moose used to be so plentiful that there's road signs warning against drivers hitting them I can assure you there's still moose because I hit one a month ago and I'd like to thank Frank and Evelyn Barassa for saving the meat and for cooking me some great meat pies thank you for their member statements the member from Eglinton Lawrence to give tribute to one of our longtime workers here staff support workers who's worked here for 20 years Joseph Galuzzo Joe I knew him when he used to own a grocery store at Scarlett Road in Eglinton did that with his brother for many years and he came on here to work in the precinct properties branch and he's one of the many incredible dedicated workers we have here who take care of our heating our cleaning our plumbing furniture move all set up we've got a real crew of dedicated professional support staff here at Queen's Park and Joe has been one of them and he's loved every day that he's been here as you run into Joe in the hallways he's always got a smile on his face he's always happy to work the only thing I mentioned about Joe too is that he along with the other staff workers here do the same work as the staff support workers at City Hall in Toronto down the road yet they make five to ten dollars less an hour than the same people doing the same work down the street and I think we should all be cognizant of that especially the Board of Internal Economy sure we've had a wage freeze here for seven years let's not write the freeze the wages of the workers and support staff it's about time we gave them a decent wage for the work they do as the workers get down the street thank you I have nothing but admiration for Joe as well and we wish him well in his retirement the member from Scarborough Rouge River on a point of order thank you mr. Speaker I'm very very happy to welcome students from my writing they are great five CD Farcassan Junior Public School and I hope all the students have a great experience at the Ontario Provincial Parliament in the house thank you mr. Speaker I thank all members for their statements therefore it's now time for reports by committees

Here we go. Some of you may be looking up ways that you can give back. I see you maybe trying to get involved. You might be getting involved or looking up ways that you can give back to some kind of disaster relief type of situation like a fund or some kind of a drive or some kind of charity event. Yeah. So I definitely see you either organizing something like that or looking up a way that you can be of service to other people or trying to help other people. I do feel like you may actually meet someone there or you may be going with someone doing this type of service or helping others. You might meet someone or be going with someone that there's a romantic element to this situation. It could be another earth sign. So you might meet someone there or get involved with them or go with them. Something turns romantic.

Okay. So just one second. Yeah. So the first agenda for today, the demo we had, the first thing I wanted to tell is that I have raised the PR for the blog post. I'd like you guys to review it and as soon as we can publish it. So apart from that, from the demo, what I'd like to discuss is Oleg's comments. He was talking about about the scope of our benchmarking strategy. And he was, he was, he gave a suggestion that we should also consider the depend, as far as I could understand him, the dependencies upon which the Git plugin works like the credentials API, we should also consider them by we're benchmarking the plugin. So I'd like to discuss that because I think this meeting, we can use it to plan what we want to do for the next phase. And yeah, so first, let's just discuss what Oleg was saying, Mark. I'm actually not, I haven't explored the dependencies of Git plugin. So this much I could understand, but could you please explain more how we could use a suggestion in our plugin in our project? Yeah, I think, I think so audio check first, can you hear me okay? I'm not sure if my internet's well behaved. Okay, great. So the I believe his concept was that there's a higher level or no, there's already in Jenkins, a layer at which things operate, for instance, in a job, and you see them when you run a job. The output is there where it does a Git version command and that it does a Git config something and it does something else. And I think what he was expressing is, could we benchmark the aggregate of all those things together and get useful information with the intent of looking for things we could stop doing or do differently. As an example, in the checkout process when you watch the commands that are being being reported, one of them is it's doing a Git config. So it's actually calling command line Git and doing a Git config. That is an obvious target for a JGit transition so that we don't have to fork a process. Java is great at opening files, writing content to files. And so that's one of those places where, but it's not clear to me, would that actually help at all? And I think that's what he was looking to explore is, okay, is there an interesting difference if we were to put a benchmark at the level of something above in a pipeline step? So a checkout SCM, if we did a benchmark of checkout SCM in a pipeline and said, hey, let's compare checkout SCM for CLI Git and checkout SCM for JGit. For me though, the number of variables there explodes. It's even harder now to decode which are the significant variables and which are the insignificant variables. I think as far as I've learned about, I've researched about micro benchmarking, the general advice is to micro benchmarking exactly means to isolate to a single point in your operation and then try to test it because if we are trying to benchmark the whole operation, the amount of variables we'll have, the unknown variables, that's something which for that, I considered that as well to time the whole process as well because I discussed it at one of the meetings about the scope of the benchmark, a big benchmarking strategy that maybe we could also write something, write some kind of benchmarks for the plugin, Git plugin as well because that information might be more useful for the users because the benchmark setting in the Git client plugin would be benchmarking the same operations and there might not be too much change in the operation, the way Git fetch is working, so benchmarking the same, the benchmarks just serve the purpose for once that we benchmark them and we gain insights and then we use those results. But if we have some benchmarks at the level of the Git plugin operations, which would involve, like the SEM check product involves a combination of Git operations, so if you're able to benchmark that at each build any developer creates with the master branch, that would be very useful for that person if they're changing anything and the performance is increasing or decreasing or if it's being affected by that. But then at that meeting or what you, the mentors, we decided that that would be, for the current scope, it would be, it could be something we could do once we achieve what we want to right now, but right now that would, that isn't something we're looking for. So if it's something we want to consider, maybe we can, right now I think the current issues we have, it's first, for an example, first I need to, the benchmarks I do for a single operation, I need to be more confident that I am able to get good results and we're able to actually use those results in the plugin. Once we, maybe we exhaust those avenues of exploring single operations and we're not able to find any useful insight to improve the performance, maybe we can move up. Would that be a good strategy? That suits me just fine. I'm still, I think, I think you got it. Oleg's, what I took from Oleg's suggestion was if we had completed the other objectives that we had set, we could go to a higher level. I don't think that we've completed those other objectives yet. And I think there's much to be learned still in the, in the, at the level that had been defined. So not, not to discount, it's very dangerous for me to ever discount that genius that I work with. He is, he is a delight. Oleg is absolutely brilliant. But it's, it's also, I think we had a good plan. Let's continue that plan. And as we learn more, we may then broaden it to say, Oh, yes, he's got the right suggestion. Let's go higher level. Okay. Okay, that sounds good. Okay, so the second thing is the bottom of the demo, we, so we, the PR for the fix for the redundant fetch issue was merged, but there was also Mark requested an opt opt out global switch, which would be helpful for some of the users if, if our logic is not correct. So, so with that, before discussing the issue, I would also like to ask, should we, should we add any issue track, should we start tracking our issues with Jira? Why I say this is because when we were discussing this issue, I, I thought by mistake that when we're talking about the global search, we're talking about the switch, which we will implement in the performance improvements once we have the performance improvement. So I was, I was actually not aware that at the time when you asked by merging after the merging the PR that we need an opt out switch for this fix as well, I was not aware, I forgot and I did not track it. So I was thinking and also, also one more thing with this issue is that sometimes we discuss what we're going to do, I raise a PR, but it's maybe not everyone is involved with the PR. So for for everyone here to follow what is happening with the issue and the sub tasks and if we have people can go and update it, I can track maybe track things better. So it might be a good idea to, to now for from the second phase, try the issues via here. But if there's, if there's any issue with it, if there's something we'd like to discuss about it, please. Yeah, if if if JIRA, I love that you've suggested using JIRA, that's great. And if you think it will help you in any way, you have my wholehearted support. That's I flinch, because Git plugin is the number three highest owner of Git is of open issues in JIRA. It's second only to Jenkins core and the Maven plugin and Blue Ocean. So so it's, it you're not you're not helping my warm fuzzy heart feeling that says, Oh, I'm improving the plugins improving. But you're doing it, you're proposing a really good way to track our work. So that that I no problem, let's use JIRA. Absolutely. Okay, okay, Mark. So I and with the so with the issue with the opt out switch I was talking about. So I implemented it and I raised a PR for it, Mark has seen it. But with the implementation, there is a one problem. And the problem is that it's not persisting for each build of one build, I configure it and I, and I, and I start the build, it works, the switches working as it should. But once the build is complete, I again go back to Jenkins configure page, it's the checkbox should be checked in. If it's checked in for the first time, but that's not happening. So I did not get a lot of time to actually look at what do you do you have any pointers for it, Mark? Do you do you? Oh, okay, is it something in the code? Do I have to add anything else? Yeah, I think, I think if you were to do a side by side comparison between the pull requests that I just merged from Bart Deverent, yes, your pull request, you'll see a very simple difference in terms of the API naming convention. And that API naming convention is all all the crucial thing here because it breaks the coupling between the user interface, and the getters and setters. And and it tragically, it's absolutely silent that the connection is broken. It just it doesn't show you Oh, I tried to set something in Java ignored me completely. Oh, that's I think it's the fault. Yes. Yes. You think something. That's it. So I think the mistake is that I was confused with using redundant fetch or the second fetch. Because if we are giving an option to the users, I feel that this we should not call it a redundant fetch, because we it is not redundant for them. So it should be called second fetch, but we were using redundant fetch for a long time. So I think I I redundant fetches. So there's a confusion there in the code. I like I'll change it. I look it up. Okay. Yeah, well, and and but your your attention to Hey, we don't rename things just casually is actually quite important. We haven't yet released the redundant fetch removal. So we can still freely rename things. Once we've released something a public symbol in Jenkins becomes tragically and unforgivably part of the public API, even if you didn't want it to be. So your naming mistakes, my naming sins from four years ago are still very much in the in the code. And they have to be otherwise we break compatibility. So so we this is a great time for us to choose a good name like allow a second fetch and get rid of bad names. Don't be shy. Once we release, we don't get that forgiveness anymore. We're stuck. I understand that. Okay. Okay, so I'm going to do that now. Okay, so after that, I was thinking to plan what we want to do for phase two. And and also with the planning, I think what I wanted to discuss was what we did right in the phase one, what we did wrong, according to you guys, and what we like to continue and what we'd like to drop. So something in that format. So let's start with what we I think I'm not sure what we like. Let's let's start with that. According to you guys, because I think your review is more important for me to move forward. Then I can give my review and that's important. Yeah, Mark. So I was delighted with your progress and with your engagement. Really thrilled and excited to watch the progress excited to see the engagement. Very positive. Love it. And that was done by code requests, pull requests by looking at code and by and that you were willing to do interactive testing at the places where interactive testing actually was more effective. I like that it's, it's uncommon for a student to realize that interactive testing is actually sometimes the most valuable thing you can do at certain points in a project. That's oh, but I want to write code. No, no, sometimes we test. Well done. Well, that's an important thing. I one of the important things I learned that just writing a fix is not important. Compatibility is a is a very essential. I would say thing to remember while you're writing anything for for a report for a plugin or for a utility which is being used by so many users. Well, it's a good it's a fair point that in different environments, the compatibility requirements are different. Right? If if you join an employer that's writing Linux kernel work, they care much, much more about compatibility than we even dream of. If you're doing brand new blue sky code, compatibility is not relevant. Go as fast as you can. Okay. Justin. Yeah, I mean, I would echo Mark. You're very enthusiastic. You seem to take take a task. We say take a bull by the horns. If you know the idea. So it's good to see that, you know, you take take stuff on you do some research on on stuff present some options, which is nice. It's good for us to hear. I think in any like software development project, it's good for if you're working on a task, you're showing the other people on your team the options. It's always helpful because they may come up with other things, but they may they also have a head start in thinking about the different options because you've you've given some of those. So that's nice. Did a great job on the presentation. Yeah, I'm trying sextant. Okay. Omkar, would you like to say? Yes, so yes, I jumped in pretty late for that thing. But yes, it is true. Yeah. Yep. So till the time like last four weeks, those have been amazing. Like your work, it's pretty pretty, like, more than pretty great. And the yesterday's presentation was amazing. And the best part of you that I felt was like, you're able to go with the approach. And if you find anything wrong, you're like, open enough to expose that fault in the approach. That's the best thing that I've found till now. Yep. Okay, and I look forward to get engaged more with you with the phase two. And yes, and it's definitely it's exciting. Yeah. Okay. So let's let's go for the issues that we the problems with you think you guys think that I should address. That's that's that's the most important, but I why I don't know why I orchestrated this thing like this. I actually want to know what were my mistakes. Then I was during phase one, which I should look into in the phase to some things like maybe the speed or the speed with which I'm taking tasks, or maybe the documentation part, the way I'm taking that any, any, in any sense, you guys feel so one of my worries was that if we were as mentors, redirecting you a little too comfortably that we were, Hey, let's go off plan a little bit, a little bit, because we think this other idea looks interesting and attractive. And and I wonder if as mentors, this is not not your fault, this is really a mentor choice where sometimes I am, it's very easy for me to get interested in the most recent shiny thing. And and go after the interesting recent shiny thing when when the plan we assembled was probably better than anything recent shiny. So so I think it's a point for us to be careful with each other to be sure. Hey, don't let recent things be received undue focus compared to to the big picture of where we were going. Okay. Okay, man, that's a great feedback. Okay. Just in home car. Anything? Yeah, I would agree. Like, I think I've probably given some suggestions that may have like taken you. I don't think you, I think you justifiably were like, took the suggestion and maybe I think we stayed on schedule. So I think we were good. I guess I don't went too far. Yeah, I think the only thing I can think of is probably also schedule related. And I'm not sure that this is necessarily something on you. But I guess we're have we have we done a check up on like where we are on schedule. And if we need to readjust any of the dates or anything like that or the projects, maybe that would be worthwhile doing periodically. Yes, I think that that's an important thing to do. It is it is and we haven't seen that I should I open the proposal where I actually propose the goals we had or the way we are going to do and then compare it with what we have done. So I generally keep on following that particular thing like I follow up the agendas for meeting and I also check on the proposal. So I think we are definitely on the track, but I'm not sure of the timeline, like what, what timeline exactly we need, what milestone we need to achieve with what time exactly, but we are definitely on the track, correct track here. So, yeah, I guess I'd say that's only really like, if someone is tracking it, if that was already you, like, that's already good. And I have it also say like, Yeah, but just we need to check if the time time stamps are currently like, we're not running too much behind the schedule, we need to check that. And it's a software project too. So I mean, software projects, you're not going to be 100% accurate with what you thought a month ago, or maybe even a week ago, sometimes with how long it actually takes. So that's just a reality. So sometimes you just need to readjust. So that's kind of where that cadence of maybe, are we in the right spot? Or do we need to readjust? It seems like we're moving pretty well. Okay, okay, yes. So, yes, ma'am. I like the idea of looking at the timeline, I tend to ignore timelines. So we may want to make a systematic thing in these maybe one one of the sessions in a week, where we remind ourselves the timeline was this, are we okay with deviating from the timeline or not? Because I've I've been totally oblivious to timeline, thinking instead about task and photo, you know, what we want what what I think we should get done. But timeline, you put effort into thinking about the timeline. And we would honor that effort, I think by looking at it and deciding, shall we accept this as a deviation from timeline? Or shall we, you know, redefine the timeline, which is perfectly okay? So according to me, what my expectation for phase one was that I would to fix the redundant fetch fix because that was something for the for that I attempted to fix even before the GSOC, the community bonding phase started. So I was so what I thought was that I would write the benchmarks, I had one benchmark, I would write more benchmarks, and I would possibly try to discover more issues, just performance related issues, and side by side try to find a solution on how to implement those in the plugin. But I think where I've lagged is that I've spent too much time on benchmarks. And I think my, my goal was to find a difference. Even if there isn't, my goal was to find a difference. And I'm not sure if that's how much that's helpful. Maybe it's helpful to a point. But if you overdo it, then you maybe you'll, you know, I'll try to see results where I where they're not they're not existing. So that's one, one concern I have with myself. And I think I'm going to change that when I'm doing the benchmarking thing. And also, I think I need to maybe I need to put a stop at where I go with with the results I have. And parallely, try to focus on the fact that we need what's more important is that the existing results we have, we have a system to add them inside the plugin. And that's going to be that's going to take a lot of time because when I was planning the timeline, I was not aware of how much time it would take. I thought that it's going to coding a certain task would not take too much time. I was not aware how much time after the coding process would take that is the testing of it and then taking it to production. That whole process I was not aware of while I was writing the timeline. And with the git fetch issue, what I've seen is that it would take considerable time in this case in this plugin for this repository. So so so I think there has to be a fine balance between how much I research because I feel that this project is not 50% but it's somewhere around the research we're doing exploring and 50% it's using that to code things. So so it's really important that I balance both of them. I think I could not balance this time for this phase coding was less and research or finger figuring out ways to consolidate the results I have profiling and then looking into how the operation is working also. So I do explore the code I do try to understand as much code as I can. It's not like I'm not reading code. But I believe that I did not I should have find found a way to the heuristics. I was thinking that at least I would have a prototype by the end of phase one, which I could not because I think that I spend too much time on benchmarks. Because I feel even after spending too much time, what clear observations we have is with the benchmark results of git fetch is that J get the size of positive and the J get thing we have. And with LSD more it's it's it's not much of a difference. But I think that I, I've spent much more time to find more things. So if that's a good thing, I think to a limit it's good, but not at the cost of not providing a solution, which is actually what we want ultimately for this project. So I think that's one of the biggest concerns I have. And I would so with tracking what I want to do is that I think that would help me more to stay within the line and hold as much as I research for the benchmarks. So yes, that's I that's what I feel for the phase one. And yeah, I mean, I think some of the beginning of this is like some of what you said is the nature of you're teeing everything up your bootstrapping all of this stuff to gain advantages later too. So I yeah, it's probably a lot of nature of the beast kind of thing. And yeah, you don't know what you don't know. So yes, that's true. Maybe all of the experiences I've gained through this phase one, it'll be easy for me to in this phase two when I'm exploring benchmarks or I'm coding stuff. Yeah, I like I'm I'm very interested in and like the idea of that sizing heuristic being a good coding task and a good coding task to include in phase two. I think that that has real potential. It's real code. It's something you can do while we're making progress on other things. So yeah, I like that a lot. Balancing that which probably has very specific concrete things with exploration of are there any other operations besides fetch where J get is substantially slower or substantially faster than CLI get because right now we've we've you've benchmarked two or three and one of the benchmarks says yes, clear difference. The other one says no, not a clear difference. The question is that all right, which or should we continue writing more benchmarks or rather is put you focus fully on have you you choose to focus fully on the heuristics and using what we've learned from that one benchmark and I I don't I don't have a good answer on do both or do one. I think I'm open to either either process whichever you prefer. Ideally I'd like to do both because if we don't explore then then I'm not sure how much we like we would we could cover at the end of the project. So I would not like to stop the researching into the different areas of this plugin but but then again focus on the coding task as much. So the last question I have is so now I'm going to write ideally either I'm going to add the size estimator part of the code to the get sm telescope or I could create a new class that's I work on that more first. I have to give more time to that thought but I wanted to ask since I would have to design a class and what would be good design principles I should maybe read about or if you guys could give me some advice on how I should design such a class where I'm I have heuristics and I want to I'm not very sure of the thing I'm delivering but I have some kind of an estimate. So this is a very new type of I would say a functionality for me to get so I just like if there's some possible advice or maybe things you would like me to explore before I write this class because I think if I have some if I read some good principle and then I try to code them it'll be easier for us to then review it and the process will be faster. I think that's the right way to do it. So yeah. I wish I could say I'm a good designer Rishabh. I'm not. I'm hoping that Justin and Omkar are because my my my usual technique is do something very badly and iterate on it until it becomes somewhat less bad. That's what I was thinking about but I thought maybe if if there's something which is essential when we're trying to create a class like this or something like this. Get SCM telescope for me feels like a great pattern and a great place for you to explore it. I think that is exactly the concept and if you if you read the SCM API documentation as written by Stephen. He has a page called consumers for consumers of the SCM API. You can read more about his strategy and why he did get SCM telescope. What his concept was so that consumer documentation on SCM API is a really really good read and therefore you're reading from somebody who actually is a good designer as opposed to listening to me who is we know not a good designer. I'm I'm I'm pretty solid at maintenance programming and pretty solid at testing. I'm not really great at designing new code. Super good gem. Like I think what you hit on is is kind of what I was going to say too. I think different code bases kind of sometimes tend towards different practices and stuff like that too. Java's generally has good practices and there's like books you can read on on this and stuff like that. But I think I'd agree with Mark that take a look at what you have for this. Take a look at other classes that have been designed in here that might do something somewhat similar and you'll be able to potentially snip some of those things from there but also combine that with iteration because you're not going to I don't know. I think as many times as I've tried to design classes like I usually find something or another thing when I'm testing it or writing unit tests or something like that that I might change some stuff up anyway. So okay yeah that sounds okay. I'll start with exploring the data SCM class. I'll be focusing on it first. The SCM telescope and reading the consumer. Then maybe come up with a prototype and then we can discuss the design. Maybe it's not the right time to ask the question. I wish it were. I wish I had the answer but the answer I have anything I give I would be making it up and I'm sure what I would be making up is much much less quality than what Steven has already described. Okay but I think it's great that we already have a class which is doing similar. It's designed for the similar purpose so I think I should look at that first and then yeah common. Okay so okay just one last thing before ending the meeting. I was always planning to document the process we've gone through for the benchmarking. I never did it. I could not do it but now what I was thinking was to create a document which basically acts as a repository of the results we have and as a public I would say document which would have the results and the observations or the process we've gone through for each of the operations because I would say that even if we implement some of the features using those observations it's important for us to see where those observations came from so that if there's an issue in future we actually know how we got to that point. So yeah that's also one big I would consider it's a very essential task. Contributing.adoc is your destination. Yes. Yes Mark. Great. Okay thank you guys thank you for giving your time. Just just just a second so are we planning to include that OS level testing like environmental testing that Mark mentioned yesterday in phase two? Yes I would say benchmarking with benchmarking as I've already mentioned in the presentation we would widen the scope. Okay I haven't discussed the benchmarking I think we can discuss it in the next meeting as well. With benchmarking I want to focus on the repository structure that is the commit history number of branches and other parameters in the size keeping the size constant if that's possible. Then the second thing would be different platforms. I haven't focus enough on how different the operations are working on windows versus linux. I would like to focus on that and then once I have observations from that experiment I would move on to the suggestion given by Mark to run it on different platforms on the infrastructure. Can you give me the .io? So yes yes Mark. Aren't we going to get that we're already running the the jmh benchmarks that you've created on different platforms on ci.jankens.io now? We can't see the results nearly as conveniently as what you've what you've what you've shown in your environment. We don't have the jmh plug-in we don't have that benefit but but they are running and so I yeah I think I think it's not it we've already made progress on it and and yes we can make more progress. So the the progress I would have to make is just to analyze them. I did not take both of those side by side and analyze them. That's something I missed. Yes so I would do that but Mark with that okay I'll I'll discuss in the gated channel. I think the time is over. It's it's a small thing. I'll discuss it in the gated channel. Thank you guys. Thank you so much. All right thanks everybody.

Thousands of people have gathered across Australia and New Zealand to earn a military personnel on Anzac Day. A year after the COVID-19 pandemic forced people to commemorate privately in driveways and on balconies. Across the Tasman Sea, in both Australia and New Zealand, reefs were laid at a dawn service to commemorate Anzac Day. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern thanked both men and women who had served the country. Across the generations, war has taken a grievous toll for both what it is and for what it leaves behind. In Australia, Prime Minister Scott Morrison also marked the sacrifices of all troops in conflict. Anzac Day commemorates the bloody battle on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey during World War One. Thousands of troops from both countries were among a larger Allied force that landed on the narrow beaches of the Gallipoli Peninsula in a campaign that claimed more than 130,000 lives. This year's anniversary saw a return for some public festivities after the global health crisis cancelled many traditional events last year and kept many people from gathering to commemorate. Although ceremonies were cancelled in some cities this year, in Sydney, thousands of people lined the streets and waved Australian flags as veterans saluted and marched in the annual parade.

This module will serve as an introduction to customization in data collection within DHIS2. Some of the key principles that we will discuss in this module include overall DHIS2 design, the naming of DHIS2 data elements, and the different data collection tools that are available within DHIS2. Through this module, we will also demonstrate the creation of the following objects within DHIS2. Organization units, organization unit groups, and organization unit group sets, data elements, data element groups, and data element group sets, and default and section-based data sets. Don't worry if you're not familiar with these terms yet, as we will go over them in a bit of detail during the various sessions. Within this module, we will also demonstrate the use of the Web Data Entry Application, Android Data Capture App, SMS, and PDF and other import types to bring data into DHIS2. In this course, we will discuss some of the fundamental principles associated with the concepts that I have described. To learn more about how to customize DHIS2, consider the Level 1 Design and Customization Academy. You can read more about this academy on our website, and we will also discuss this in a bit more detail in a separate presentation. Let's go ahead and get started with the module.

تشرف بالاشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دادا دالا وياله من شراف عظيمي الثوة هي الجهالة هل أنت أعلم؟ هل أنت أعلم؟ هل أنت معي؟ الجهالة العين أخي، إذا كانت خرصية من ناريطة إذا كانت لديه عدالة لا يمكن أن يساعده إنه تقول له أخي لأنه يخبره في الممارس فهل أنت أخذت معي؟ إذا أنت أخذت معي أنا أخذت معه بممارس أخذت بممارس كانت تأكيدا إنه يتعلم أو سؤال حفظي أو الغفلة أو كثرة أو هامي أو مخالفة الثقاتي هؤلاء أمام تخبريني يخبروني يخبروني يخبروني يخبروني يخبروني يخبروني ما هو أول من الضهر الذي أخبرته؟ لن نبدأ مع العلق now لماذا ستبدأ مع العلق؟ لأن العلق يبدأ من الأبد من المرات الحديث و ستفعله يصدق بسرعة العلق نعم فمالمردودو الحديث الذي يتنسي إما أنه لأنه لسقطم أو طعن or a criticism فسقطو this connection إما أن يركون it is possible it takes place what من مبدأ السندي from the beginning of the chain من مصنفين from the author of the book already told you about it it can happen from the beginning of the chain of the author of the book good أو من آخره بعد التابعي أو the ending بعد التابعي so it is the same أو غير ذلك أو other than it فأول المعلق sorry he said من مبدأ السند it can be from the مبدأ السند which is what which is معلق أو من آخره بعد التابعي that is Mursal أو غير ذلك أو other than it أو من قطر those are the four types that I just mentioned pay attention now we are going to start with the first one which is معلق معلق is what first of all is مفعول and it is from what من التعليق التعليق means what brothers learn this okay it is to hang something on top of a ceiling it is to literally dangle something that is what I am going to talk about أناطه و ربطة بها و جعله معلقن بسبب التصالي من الجهة العلية فقط the reason why they call it معلق is because it is connected from the other side of the prophet side are you guys with me but from after the bottom there is nothing there so the rope when it dangles it does not touch the floor does it it is dangling so that part that is not touching the floor is the part which makes it معلق right when it is like that it is معلق و لذلك the 11 women that came and sat down and spoke to each other و حديثة أمو زرع one of the women she said إن أنطق if I speak about my husband و طلق he will divorce me و إن أسكت و إن أسكت and if I become silent و علق I will just hang the angle so if I speak about him and I say something about him he will divorce me he will hear it and he will divorce me if I am silent I am basically like a woman that is not married so I have no way out if I speak about him and I criticize him he will divorce me if I what if I try to tell him if I try to be silent about it and not tell anyone about it then I am just basically a person who is living a rough life I am just dangling so the word علق in Arabic that is what it means it means that that is what it means linguistically what does it mean ما حذيفة it is that which is it's been taken hidden من مبدأ إسناديه it is that the chain of narration one person or more ولو إلى آخر الإسنادي even if it's to the ending of the chain of narration this is called معلق don't worry we are going to come to the types of تعليق how it comes how it occurs in details but what it means is that what we are going to do it's صور it's forms it comes in we are going to take the forms it comes in it's only five forms we are going to take it إن شاء الله تعالى معلق means it is ما حذيفة anything helpful means in Arabic it means something that is removed deleted or taken removed ما حذيفة it is to remove من مبدأ إسناديه from the beginning of the chain when we say the beginning pay attention brothers we don't mean it from the profit side we mean it from the author of the book side so بخاري's book for example or with Dawood's book any scholar who wrote a book his side his angle from his teacher onward it's called معلق okay he removes that person if it's one person it's معلق if it's more than one person it's also معلق are you guys with me even if it's to the ending of the chain is what it's a معلق okay it's a معلق إبلو الصلاح النووي and عراقي they said with the condition it has to be مجزوم it has to be done with سغة الجزم which is we take a last lesson that he has to narrate it not with the سغة تمرق سغة الجزم in order if it's for it to be to be معلق إراقي says in his الفيا وإن يكون أول اسمادي حذف مع سغة الجزم فتعليق عرف ولو إلى آخره أما الذي لشيخ عزاي بقال فاكري عن عانة كخابر المعاز في لا تسغي ابن حزم للمخالف so إراقي الحمو الله he mentions that if it's the beginning of that chain of the narration مع السغة الجزم but it has to be narrated with the سغة الجزم such as the word قاله عن it can't be قيلة هوية يحكى يذكر all the السغة التمرق they don't know that it has to be معلق ولذلك إراقي إراقي عن كخابر المعاز في وسط عن the story is the حديث of the music عن عانة إراقي's he said لا تسغي لبن حزم للمخالفي ابن حزم don't give an attention to what he said don't bring your ear close to his speech it has no weight not right incorrect إراقي إراقي إراحم الله he said in a thousand lines of poetry رحم الله so the word تعليق means what it means معلقة it means a woman that's not married that's not divorced she's a معلقة الله تعالي he said about the woman ولم تستطع أن تعدل بين النسائي ولو حرست you'll never be able to give all your wives their rights as much as you try فلا تميلوا كل الميلي فتذروها كل معلقة فلا تميلوا do not turn towards one of the women so much that the other one becomes what كل معلقة then she becomes the معلقة you're not married and you're not divorcing her you see Allah orders in the Quran the way we we married to the woman is what إمساكم بمعروفة أو أو تصرح بإحسان بمعروفة أو in good or let the girl go don't not in between okay so we learned what the word the word تعليق what it means we've learned it صور المعلقة the forms that معلقة come in this is very important that you learn it it comes in five ways إن شاء الله the first way it comes in is أن يحذف جميع السنة the whole of the chain of narration is disconnected خلاص all of it مع إضافة القول إلى قائله but with the condition of what ascribing to the speech of the person who said it so for example if you take بخاري what say what قال رسول الله what has he dropped his teacher and everyone the chain of narration but he has ascribed the speech to the owner of the speech which is the prophet are you guys with me good that's the first one remember it always has to be from the beginning of the chain the second one is أن يحذف أن يحذف that it's that it's removed جميع السنة مع عدم إضافة القول إلى قائله the speech is not ascribed to the individual who said it the second one is the speech is not ascribed to the person who said it the whole of the chain is disconnected the third one is أن يحذف that it's removed جميع السنة all of the chain of narration إلا الصحابي except the companion is not removed so he says قال رسول الله بخاري بخاري what say you say أن أبي موسى الأشعري رضي الله وطعال عنه قال قال رسول الله بخاري where is it gone are you with me 4 أن يحذف جميع السنة that he removes all of the chain of narration إلا الصحابي except the companion والتابعي and also the fifth one is what the fifth one is أن يحذف من حدثه he only removes the person who who told him he removes the person who who told him ويضيف for إلا من فوقه and anyone after that he mentions it he just drops out his teacher and after that he mentions it he drops out his teacher here those are the examples أصحيح البخاري go to the introduction of رحم الله in which he talks about how بخاري wrote his book and he talks about it there pay attention وليس من صور المعلق it is not from the forms of معلق ما عزاه المؤنف that which a teacher ascribes to a student ascribes to the author of the book ascribes to his teacher by saying قالة if a teacher ascribes to his teacher and he says قالة even though what قالة isn't meant to be used because it's meant to be used حدثني أخبرني to make it clear that he heard it from him but if a student such as بخاري uses the what قالة of his own teacher this is not it's not from the forms of معلق حكمها it's really is what حكم المعلق عن this takes the rolling of them عن that's what آي بنو أراك رحم الله mentioned that's what رحم God he said وَإِيَا كُنْ أَوْلُوا الْإِسْنَادُ أُحُوذِفْ مع صيغة الجزم فالتعليق نعرف ولو ولو إلى آخره أملب لشيخ عذا بقال فاك عن عنة كخبر المعازيف من الشيخ من أمام المخارف ومخارف يستخدم قالة و here is given what قالة of مخارف رحم الله is given the ruling of عن as though he used the word عن if the حديث is narrated with عن from a narrator scholars look at it with two things first of all is what لقاء الراوي اللي من روعده that this person had met this person in which he used the word قالة for Did Bukhari meet Heisham Ibn Ammar? Yes he did Good second condition they look at is that سلامة الراوي من التدليس that the person is safe from what تدليس to use the word what for him to organize which we're going to take in detail Insha'Allah what تدليس means in more detail Insha'Allah we're going to take it What's the ruling of a حديث which is معلق What's the ruling of a حديث which is معلق الحديث المعلق ضعيف the حديث which is معلق is weak Why? لأنه فقط الشرطن من شروط القبول because it is missing a condition from the conditions of acceptance of a حديث which was what which is the connection of the chain of narration is missing because a narrator is missing or even more than a narrator is missing and we as other people of a حديث they require to know who is the person who is missing or what is this situation like they want to know who is this person but that being the معلق being weak and not being accepted and rejected is as long as it's not in a book which conditions authenticity as long as it's not in a book that conditions authenticity if a book في كتاب اشتارة الصحة if a book who condition authenticity narrates it the scholars have looked at it in a different angle such as for example which are two books التزمت الصحة they condition that the book is going to be authentic مقاري المسلم مقاري المسلم they have a specific rule them too they have a unique ruling generally the معلق is rejected because it is disconnected like in these two books it is different the scholars they say that their situation is too the Hadith which are معلق which are in صحيحين مقاري المسلم they cannot be in one of these two Cubs okay in one of these two Cubs for example مكان معلق the Hadith is معلق it's معلق in a book واجاء موصولا في الكتاب نفسه but in so the author such as امام المسلم امام المقاري at the beginning he brings the Hadith معلق here but in another place he brings it معصول and a lot of times what you find is معصول means it connected he brings it connected at the beginning and in the middle generally he does that he doesn't bring it later with the chain again why? because it's not significant are you guys with me? so he narrates it here معصول gives you the chain of narration half way in the book he narrates it with the chain of narration disconnected okay و هذا هو الكثير الغالب على معلقات الصحيحين and that's the majority of the Hadith مقاري المسلم the majority that is one if the second one is ما لم يوجد إلا معلقات we can't find this Hadith in a whole book we check the book and we can't find it معلق anywhere in the book in any other place the scholars they say okay now there's two situations regarding this one we look for it this Hadith Muslim he only narrated it معلق in his book are you guys with me? who has more معلق بقاري المسلم بقاري has more معلق بقاري has more معلق than Muslim بقاري has more معلق than Muslim okay pay attention pay attention if ما لم يوجد إلا معلقات we looked for it إن صحيح البقاري or we looked for it in صحيح المسلم and we could not find it except معلق in through the whole of the book here it has two ways we did with it if he narrated it بسيغة الجزم he narrated it with a word رواء دكاراء حكا يلسى here سيغة الجزم صحيح if he narrated it with a word رواء فهذا السيغة يستفاد منها الصحة إلى من علق عنه يلسى that we see now هذناري the Hadith short authenticity to whoever he has described it to the second one is if he narrates it بسيغة التمريل بسيغة روية ويرواء ويذكرو ويقالو this for example the scholars they said authenticity and weakness is not taken from it all that can be taken from it is according to the author of the book he sees it weak but it's not necessarily going to be weak this one what does it require we will say this one we need to do a research and find it in other books where they are authentic so there has to be a little bit of research a little bit of research so the scholars would go and they research they find it either weak and they would follow the author of the book where he just said or they find it authentic in other works and in other places now so the Hadith which are معلق the way it's dealt with مخاري and Muslim should be known distinct and different and other books also should be known and the ruling of it نعم والثاني the second time the second time which is والثاني المرسال the second one is المرسال إراقسين رحم الله مرفوع تابعون على المشهوري مرسال أو قياده بالكبيري أو سقتراوي منه ذو أقوالي والأول الأكثر في استعمالي مرسال اسم مفعول لن اسم مفعول من الإرسال وأصله من قولهم is from the speech of the Arabs where they say أرسال الشيئة to send something أطلاقه freed it وأهمله forsaked it and Allah says in the Quran ألم ترى أنه do you not see أنه أرسلنا الشياطين على الكافرينة that we sent we sent the shayateen to the disbelievers أنه أرسلنا الشياطين على الكافرينة أنه أرسلنا الشياطين على الكافرينة تأزوم أزا استلاحا what is the technical meaning استلاحا is means ما رفاعه التابعي it is that which a tabi ascribes to the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم even if a companion narrates from another companion it's also called mursal a companion narrates from another companion it's also called mursal mursal is a topic which in reality that has brought a lot of a lot of problems and a lot of خلافات

Hi, everybody once again. Yes, we're here Bob Lorenz. I enjoy with you and we're about to flood the zone with sports Always love talking about the continuing evolution to get any sports back and Ian I'm not sure where to begin. They're gonna play the US Open tennis tournament with no fans We just found that out Serena Williams says she's committed to it We've got the WNBA coming back and then we got the template for the NBA coming back And what it's gonna be like living in that bubble. So where do you want to begin? So much to talk about Bob. It's great to see you as always This is awesome that we're getting an opportunity to talk about so many sports coming back in the fashion that they're coming back It's exciting times. Some of the rules and regulations are a little crazy and a little out there, but I'm loving it All right, so let's break it down for the NBA. They plan hopefully to start late July 100 plus page handbook 33 page Player handbook just to go through to figure out how they're gonna live for 50 or more days in three separate hotels in Orlando Wow I mean 108 pages was what they said about this this rule book and the regulations that they were put forth to the players and For the officials and for anyone else who's involved in this. I think it's quite amazing really to see that the players and Obviously the league itself Really coming together and putting this plan of awesomeness together It takes a lot of discipline a lot of dedication, but a lot of acceptance not easy Ian as you looked over everything that the players are gonna have access to what were some of the cool things It stood out to you So many cool things really caught my attention Bob But I've got to admit the magic bands and the proximity alarms really stood out I want a customized proximity alert Like I'd love to have something that after five seconds. It's like get away from me or some Maybe your own voice and you could say something like that. I'd love it She was a megaphone anywhere you go and I can actually picture you in the studio when you return back into the studio Just walking around with your megaphone. Yeah, that's that's five feet. I like six feet Describe yourself away from me all the sound effects 10 decibels people going out of their minds, you know, it's interesting to some of the Entertainment options that these players are gonna have to they'll have to get there initially They'll have to quarantine for a couple days be tested and then they start moving towards practicing and playing these games But Disney's saying hey, we're gonna try and get these guys backstage tours We're gonna try and get them first-run movies that haven't been released yet You really feel the fingerprints of Disney Welcoming these players in and saying we're gonna take care of you and make sure that you know You don't feel like you're stuck in this bubble Well, it's not easy to entertain Millionaires this is different and this is going to be a challenge It really is different and that's the hard part for a lot of these players and the people who are put into this position For them to realize it's not going to be this this awesome adventure. It's going to be completely different So, you know for me, it's going to be tough But it's also pretty cool And I think the players are a lot of being asked of them to be able to take pay cuts in their salaries To be able to agree to the amount of games and the format that they're going to have to be able to practice and play these games in But the outside of what's going on for their entertainment value having to lock themselves in quarantine until they test a Couple of times over the period of 24 hours so that there's there's no no positive test. That's really important You know the small detail is what matters most and and then what happens when someone does test spot as positive if someone Actually does, you know, it's really cool the plan that everybody's put together here And it goes back to what we've been talking about Bob for the last what two three months How cool it will be to have sports back and what an opportunity this is for these associations for the NBA right now and For us as a network for the big networks for them to be able to play around with this some cool new angles of how The game will be shown to fans to viewers. I mean this is endless amounts of opportunity here for people to see the game differently I love it. Yeah, we've talked about that I like the idea of the different camera angles and you know, this is a point you brought up I think it was about two months ago when we were talking about the German soccer league and some of the European leagues coming back I like the idea of putting a cutout of fans in the stands and if we can't have fans in the stands, right? I know you can do that electronically and that sort of thing digitally. How about Bob Lorenz and Ian Joy for 20 bucks or 50 bucks if we want to pay for it pay for a cardboard cutout It's a way to generate some income But then could you imagine look around the stadium and you see all these crazy bodies and heads and you know, you could your shot could be like Something like that. Like you're going crazy cheering for the game even though you can't be there in person I love the fact that you're thinking outside of the box here and this is what we should all be doing right now I've got a new one for you Bob. Yes, this was this was another one at a game in Scandinavia somewhere forget I believe it was like Sweden or Denmark So what they did do is instead of having the cardboard cutout instead of having like a paper cutout or a cardboard cutout in the stadium Where people can pay and put their face there and it'll be a really nice sponsored event What they did do is they put up Big screens all the way around it was like 20 foot screens and they used like a platform like a zoom or like a FaceTime platform where Fans could pay a little bit of money to charity or to the teams or whatever it was for pay five bucks or ten bucks and Your square box with your picture appeared on the outside of the field Which for me was incredible. So you actually had I think it was like 500 people were on the outside sitting at home Just watching the game and your face was right there on the outside of the field I thought it was really cool. I love it. That's brilliant. It's a way to take up real estate in the seat So it looks like there's actually activity fandom Did they did they get the audio as well? Do you know from those things pumped in or yeah So there they're basically not from the fans who are at home, okay again prior to kickoff Yeah, they had the fans being able to sing a song together and things love it That's cool, right? So they put it through the public Tanoid system so everybody can hear it I love that idea and but when the game got going obviously, it's it's quiet as normal I think when like a goal went in they were able to cheer, you know And they could say whatever and then they went back to to having just the regular Output from the field but getting creative and that's what we all have to do right now, Bob And the fans also have to accept that as well. This is different, but it's really cool Yeah, I think it's interesting to how these leagues are finding these great areas to go Obviously Disney has the facilities for the NBA for MLS soccer, which will be coming back the WNBA is gonna be at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida So they have the infrastructure to show these games NBA by the way, how about this if you want to your big NBA fan You're gonna be able to watch five to seven games had played a day Because they got to get the regular season done and then the playoffs I mean you could be non-stop like two picks in the eyes just watching TV and watching these games I mean, it's really incredible. I mean this is opening up a whole new generation for for young stars And this is what I'm excited for for people who for three months have had no sports in their lives All of a sudden having sports 24-7, you know for the next generation for these kids They're gonna get used to this as well. They're gonna be like why is there no sports today when we get back to normal? I mean, this is really cool. It's great for us all I'm excited to see how creative we can get as a network as well. You know, what can we do? What can me and you do Bob? How can we make the viewing experience better, right? We've had some crazy ideas and I think now's the time if we want to implement those ideas And I think it's also really important to get that feedback from the viewer from the fine You know, how are they enjoying this whole experience? Maybe we find that one or two of these cool new formats might just stick You never know by the way one thing before I let you go thinking about all the entertainment stuff that the NBA players will have You can't play ping-pong only singles not doubles because that would not be safe social distancing I could totally see if this applied to you and me We'd start you and I would start a little ping-pong friendly match at let's say 10 p.m And suddenly we'd look up and it's 4 a.m. We're like what happened. We're sweaty. We played like 30 Matt games You can see that happening right at a ping-pong table you and me Yeah, and I can see about 20 30 people just gathering around the table cheering us on as we're going about our business Competing against each other. Can you imagine putting all these athletes in one place? All they know how to do in their life is compete. Yes What they do they're gonna find a way to find competition and I love every single minute But I wish it was a part of it. Yep, it's gonna be beautiful madness. We look forward to it Ian great. See you see you next time. Oh, it's a pleasure my man

REUSABLE COLD PACK Experiment (How to make a reuseable cold pack
Objective: TO understand the concept of freezing point depression by making a reusable cold pack.
Materials:
Quart freezer bag
Isopropyl rubbing alcohol
Food coloring (Optional)
Safety Precautions: Isopropyl alcohol is poisonous if ingested. Be sure to clearly label the bag “POISON” before putting it into the freezer.
Procedure:
Add 2 cups of water and 1 cup of rubbing alcohol to a freezer bag and seal.
Place in the freezer overnight.
Observe the bag
Explanation
The solution in the bag will not freeze, because alcohol has a much lower freezing point then water. Isopropyl alcohol freezes at -89 C, and water freezes at 0 C. As a result, alcohol will depress the freezing point of the water. The temperatures in a typical freezer are not cold enough to freeze the solution.
The cold pack that was made in this experiment can be used whenever cold is required for an injury, such as to reduce swelling. IT can then be placed in the freezer and used over an over again.

Welcome back to Kids Fun Science. My name is Ken. Today's experiment is the reusable cold packs. As always adult supervision is required. What you need for this experiment is a freezer bag and rubbing alcohol. Some safety precautions is rubbing alcohol is poisonous if ingested. Be sure to clearly label your bag do not drink or poisonous before putting in the freezer. Okay to set up this experiment you need your rubbing alcohol and some water, two cups of water and then you're going to I already pre-marked my cup one cup here for the rubbing alcohol that way I don't have to pour it into our measuring cup that we use for the house. So pre-dead that one cup which is 250 milliliters and two cups is 500 milliliters of water. Take your zip lock bag freezer bag I'm using a one gallon you can use a quart size would be actually be perfect. Pour the two cups of water into the the bag itself and then pour the one cup of rubbing alcohol and then takes up most the air out of it and then you want to seal it up you don't want to have a lot of air in there. So seal it up if there's too much air I'm gonna probably reopen it up and squeeze out the air there and then you're gonna want to mark the bag at this point because to do not drink or poison and then put it in your freezer overnight so you want to make sure this is in overnight and we will check back the next morning. So here it is the next morning I'm gonna go in and we can see it's not frozen over it's just like slush slushy we're normally you know it'd be completely frozen over this is just like a slushy it's very very cold I mean I could barely hold it too long just like a regular ice pack you would have and this is reusable so you can put it back in so it's very cold as you can see slushy and great for injuries if you want to use this so if you go ahead make your own you can reuse it and now I will tell you the science behind it. So the solution the bag will not freeze because rubbing alcohol has a much lower freezing point than water. Rubbing alcohol freezes at negative 89 Celsius where water freezes at zero Celsius so as a result the rubbing alcohol depresses the freezing point of the water. The temperature in a typical freezer are not cold enough to freeze this solution that we made. The cold pack here that was made in this experiment can be reused whenever the cold is required for an injury such as a reducing swelling and then it can be placed back in the freezer and reused over and over again so very useful here I hope you enjoyed this video remember to click thumbs up and to subscribe thanks for watching

Earlier this year, consumer reports published some new tests on tuna, confirming that just a single serving, like half a can of white tuna, would put women of child-bearing age over the EPA mercury safety limit. Light tuna tends to have less than white tuna, but they've found sometimes it can have twice as much. Bottom line, they recommend children and premenopausal women eat no more than a can of wheat, and pregnant women should avoid canned tuna entirely. Last year, scientists at the Harvard School of Public Health attempted to calculate what effect a reduction of mercury intake might have for our population, given that methylmercury is a known human developmental neurotoxicant, as well as may increase fatal heart attack risks. They calculated that if we could just drop our mercury exposure down 10%, we could save our country $860 million a year, most of which would be associated with reductions in fatal heart attacks and the rest with IQ gains. The CDC estimates that every extra IQ point we have translates into about 1% future higher earnings in life, in terms of hourly wages. So lowering our mercury intake is healthy for our brain and bank account. On a practical level, what does reducing our exposure mean? Well, we can try not to live next to a volcano or coal-fired power plant, but fish consumption is the major source of methylmercury intake.

Good morning, everybody. I'm Tommy O'Brien, coming to you live from TFN headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida at 9 a.m. on Friday, coming back from that July 4th holiday. Hope everyone had a great July 4th. As we start off the morning, we got some jobs data this morning with a rise in payrolls of 224,000. We'll jump over to that in a moment. But the market reacting a bit, pretty mildly. Dow futures right now, negative 86 points with a half hour coming till that opening bell. Dow futures trading 26,887. S&Ps, negative by about 12, trading at 2988. Nasdaq futures off by 45, trading at 7842. We got the 10-year back above 2%, 2.01% on that 10-year. And as we start things off, we'll jump over and we'll start it off with the news of the day. We've been waiting for it, kind of coming back from an interesting day. Market, you're probably going to see very light volume. People, as you would expect on vacation, extending the Wednesday half day, Thursday, July 4th, Friday. Just take that day off and make it a weekend. But we got some action. Non-farm payrolls, 224,000 in June, well above the market expectation of about 165. Unemployment rate actually hedging higher to 3.7 from 3.6. Wage growth 3.1% year over year, one-tenth of a point below, actually, market expectations. So that number hitting the markets at 8.30 to see how that hit the indices and across the broad market started off with the Dow. So we kind of just started trading lower at about 2 a.m. We were up there at 2700 for most of the overnight session. We trade down and there is your 8.30 a.m. volatility. We were trading at about 26,946, just a slight trade to the downside off of that news, 26,874. NASDAQ 100 trading at 78.37. You can see that volatility a bit around that jobs number as well. S&Ps much the same, trading at 29.86. We were actually up there at 3,003 early this morning overnight. Crude oil, volatility in both directions, currently sitting 56.69. Gold contract reacting to that jobs number for sure was trading at 14.16, actually got below 14.00 briefly, currently trading right at that level, 14.80. And we're getting a little bit of dollar strength on that number. Euro weakness, Euro trading, 1.12.42. And the other thing I just wanted to get over there is in Samsung saying second quarter profit likely fell 56%. You're seeing some of those chip stocks get hit this morning on that news. Stay tuned, folks. We've got our man Larry Pesvento coming up at 9, right now. I'm going to be back at 10 with our man Basil Chapman live programming all day at TFNN. Have a great Friday, everybody.

The study examined the structure of amyloid plaques in the brains of mice with the arctic mutation, which is associated with early onset Alzheimer's disease. They found that the plaques were composed of a lattice-like structure made up of a fibrils, as well as other structures, such as extracellular vesicles, extracellular droplets, and extracellular multilamala bodies. Additionally, they discovered a new type of fibrillar structure, consisting of thin proto-fibril-like rods and branched fibrils. This study provides insight into the structure of amyloid plaques in the brain, and may help to better understand how the structure contributes to the development of AD. This article was authored by Connie Leisner, Martin Wilkinson, Ailee Burgess, and others.

Marvel's The Punisher (Season 1) Review | Frank's Been Watered Down
|
This Video is NOT made for kids, This video is for adult collectors Marvel's The Punisher (Season 1) Review | Frank's Been Watered Down Marvel's The Punisher, or simply The Punisher, is an American web television series created for Netflix by Steve Lightfoot, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name. It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films and other television series of the franchise, and is a spin-off of Marvel's Daredevil. The series is produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC Studios, with Lightfoot serving as showrunner.
The series revolves around Frank Castle, who uses lethal methods to fight crime as the vigilante "the Punisher", with Jon Bernthal reprising the role from Daredevil. Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ben Barnes, Amber Rose Revah, Deborah Ann Woll, Daniel Webber, Jason R. Moore, Paul Schulze, Jaime Ray Newman, and Michael Nathanson also star. A television series centered on the Punisher received a put-pilot commitment at Fox in 2011, but that project fell through. In June 2015, Bernthal was cast as the character to appear in the second season of Daredevil. Development on a spin-off titled The Punisher began by January 2016, before the second season of Daredevil was released. In April 2016, Marvel and Netflix ordered the series, confirmed Bernthal's involvement, and announced Lightfoot as executive producer and showrunner. Filming began in New York City in October 2016, and concluded in April 2017.
The Punisher premiered in New York City on November 6, 2017, with the full 13 episodes released on November 17 on Netflix.

The Punisher premiered on Netflix today, and I'm coming at you with my review. Marvel's The Punisher stars John Burnthal and takes place in the same universe as the other Netflix series such as Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, and The Defenders. However, there really isn't much in the way of connection between this series and those, other than a picture of Frank Castle in the newspaper while he was in prison and reporter Karen Page. Something that separates this series from the Punisher films is that in those, Frank Castle was usually once law enforcement, as well as ex-military. In the original starring Dolph Lundgren, Frank Castle was an ex New York City police officer whose family was murdered by mobsters. In the 2004 Thomas Jane film, Frank was an undercover FBI agent and former soldier who retires and then his family is slaughtered by the Saints. The 2008 Punisher war zone, which starred Ray Stevenson, revolved around Frank Castle who's been in the Punisher for about five years. It's unclear in that film if he had law enforcement experience, but what is made clear is that his family was killed by gangsters while on a picnic in the park. In Netflix's The Punisher series, it's suggested at the beginning that his family was killed by government agents in his home. But this turns out to be just a recurring nightmare of Frank's as he blames himself for their deaths. What's also suggested in the series is that his family was killed while picnicking in the park after Frank returned home from his tour of duty. Something Netflix did great during the production of the series was the way they presented soldiers who returned home with PTSD. One of which has a nightmare and it startled away and nearly kills his father which causes him to dig a fox hole and sleep outside so he doesn't make that same mistake again. PTSD in this manner is a very real thing. Years ago my former roommate suffered from PTSD and he would oftentimes be found by his wife outside digging trenches in his underwear in the rain. Throughout this series, Frank Castle is presumed dead and goes by an alias in order to keep the wrong people from tracking him down. The Netflix series presents Frank as a very tortured soul. He did things in Afghanistan that he isn't proud of including torturing a Middle Eastern police officer and then shooting him point blank. Season 1 doesn't really seem like a Punisher story though. It's not about the mob or gangsters or drug dealers or anything like that. They've made the main antagonist in this season, the CIA, which would feel better as more of a long term enemy rather than the enemy for a single season. It would have helped had they built up to the CIA being the enemy rather than pushing it hard in season 1. John Berenthal made for a great Frank Castle, but the story itself seemed extremely watered down in comparison to other Punisher stories. Overall the series was good but it just didn't really seem like a Punisher series. Throughout this season Frank is referred to as kind of boogie man, but it's not really as represented in his portrayal as it is in the movies. Berenthal plays Frank more as an ordinary man pushed to his limits rather than the force of nature that he was depicted as in Daredevil and in the later two films. As a Marvel series it follows the same narrative as the other series where introduced to the character then the supporting characters and the villains were then introduced to a twist the hero doesn't find out about until later and then were shown just how evil the villain is, the hero falls, and then the resolution. It's the same pattern over and over with all of these Netflix Marvel series. I liked the series but it was far too repetitive with the exact same storytelling as the other Marvel Netflix series. It wasn't really new as it was however a new interpretation of the Punisher which is fresh but did it really live up to all the hype? I'm not so sure. First episode was really good and brutal in a way that the Punisher should be but the following episodes Frank didn't really do anything too brutal. In the comics Frank is known for his brutality but in this series the most brutal thing he did was kill a bunch of guys and then drop them in a container of cement. This however would kind of be resolved near the ending of the season where we do get a few brutal scenes overall not very brutal at all like what the Punisher is known for. Something that kept bugging me during this series was how Frank kept his pants tucked into his boots which is very reminiscent of Berndthal's character in The Walking Dead. With military style pants it wouldn't be a big deal but with jeans it makes him look like a reject from the 90s. Okay so as I'm typing up the script for this I'm watching the series and while the final couple episodes are pretty brutal especially when Frank runs a guy's face against a broken mirror like a cheese grater this of course is the beginning of the character known as Jigsaw from the comics. In this series though Jigsaw isn't a hit man for the criminal underworld but instead was a friend of Frank's and served with him in Afghanistan and was at least partially responsible for the deaths of Frank's family. In the comics Jigsaw is Frank's arch enemy and was even the main villain in 2008's The Punisher Warzone. It's pretty decent update of the character and in Twine's their story is nicely. Would I recommend the series to fans of the comic? I can't really say I haven't really read many of the Punisher comics. I'm not sure how fans will feel about the watered down version but I would recommend it to fans of action movies and comics in general. I'll give it a 6 out of 10 stars as a Punisher story and an 8 out of 10 as an action series. I'm Shannon for Come Again TV. Take care everyone.

Hello and welcome back to OpenShift 4.x deep dive video series. In the last video, we talked about how ignition process works when a new machine comes up. In this video, we'll talk about machine configurations that can be used to make changes to your machines. Machine configurations are managed by a machine config operator. This is one of the cluster operators a platform operator. Machine configured operator manages a couple of components. One of them is a machine config controller. This controller runs on the master and it coordinates any updates to any machines across your cluster. So if you have to read your machines, that will be managed by your machine config controller. Machine config operator also manages a machine config daemon and this runs as a daemon set across all the nodes on your cluster. Every node will have an instance of machine config daemon running and machine config daemon manages the updates to that particular machine. So machine config controller coordinates with the machine config daemons on individual machines to update machines. Another component that the machine config operator manages is a machine config server and this machine config server is also a daemon set. It runs on the masters. The machine config server hosts the ignition config files. If you were to add some new workers in the future, they need the ignition config files. Those will be served by the machine config server. So machine config is one of the cluster operators and it manages a machine config controller, which is a part it also manages a set of machine config daemons. Every node runs a machine config daemon and there are machine config servers that are running on the master, which provides the ignition config files. Let us now understand machine configurations and machine config pools. Machine configurations are created based on the ignition configuration that we were supplied initially with the bootstrap.ign file. These determine the state of the machine. Machine configuration pools are groups of systems like master, worker, or if you want some specialized machines like infrastructure worker or high performance worker, this form, machine config pools. Let's look at a newly created cluster. When you look for machine config pools, there are two types of machine config pools. This has master pool and a worker pool. The master pool is pointing to a rendered master and the worker pool is pointing to a rendered worker with a hash. Let's look at the machine configs. You'll see a bunch of different machine configurations and you'll also see two special files that are rendered master and rendered worker. We look at one of the machine configuration files and this is a subset of ignition configuration. Machine config controller combines a bunch of machine configs to form a rendered configuration for a particular machine config pool. So for a master it creates a rendered master and for the worker it creates a rendered worker. If you had specialized machine config pools such as high performance work, you will have rendered high performance worker as well. So it combines a bunch of machine configurations to form a rendered file. Multiple rendered rendered machine configurations depending on when you make the changes, it also controller goes and creates a new rendered configuration. So the latest rendered machine configuration is applied to all the machines that belong to that machine config pool. The pool to which a particular machine config applies is based on this label where it says this particular machine config applies to a machine with role worker. Whereas if you look at this other machine configuration, this applies to a master. So the controller combines the machine configurations based on this labeling and applies them. Now let us look at a machine configuration rendered worker. This ends up being a huge file and it has the complete ignition configuration. So what you see under the spec is actually a complete ignition configuration for the worker. So while a rendered machine configuration is delivered as a Kubernetes object by the API server to be applied to the hosts if at all there are any changes in the future. For the first time when you need to create a worker node, then you need an ignition file. A copy of the spec of the rendered machine configuration is also delivered as an ignition configuration file by a machine config server. If you were to create a custom machine configuration pool, let's say we are creating a pool with high performance workers. You may apply your changes as additional machine configs when machine config control pool creates a rendered high performance worker. It combines all the relevant files based on the labeling and it orders them in the alphanumeric sequence so that if there are any files that need to be overridden, file with higher priority of alphanumeric sequence will override the file with lower priority. So if there is a message of the day which is numbered 50 and you also have a message of the day that is numbered 51 with your customizations then 51 will overwrite 50. So let's understand how machine changes or machine upgrades happen. Let's say you go and add some new machine configurations. Machine config controller creates a new rendered machine configuration and that will be delivered via the API server. Machine config controller also identifies the relevant machines and it coordinates the upgrades with the daemons that are running on those boxes. The machine config daemon pulls the rendered machine config that applies to its pool from the API server and it applies those updates to the respective host on which it is running. If the change is an upgrade and if it requires a new release image, a Red Hat Coros image, then the machine config daemon pulls the release image and applies the machine configurations that it pulls from the API server. Now the machine configuration daemon running on a node cordons the node, it drains the parts running on the node, applies the updates based on the machine configuration and reboots that machine. The changes are repeated for all relevant nodes by the respective machine config daemons. So to summarize in this video, we have understood what machine configurations are, what rendered machine configurations are and how custom machine configurations override generic configuration in a rendered machine config and how the machine upgrade works by applying the rendered machine configuration. I hope you enjoyed this video. Thanks a lot for watching.

When I created this camp and I created the throwing chain reaction system was to have you guys come in and really learn a format. Nice and easy again. The throwing chain reaction system. Alright, so we are in San Antonio. We got day two. Today we'll do rotational shot and glide. Is that you guys need to pay attention. It takes one split second and a shot putting your head, you're done. Rotational throwers, this comes around, feel up, we drive that hip through, look at everything stop. When I'm here it's push, knee loaded, push, knee loaded. It makes it really easy to learn and it makes it very easy to correct what you're doing wrong. Don't finish your throw. Our techniques, we're getting better. I like it, it helps me learn it faster and all the little steps that are in it. This is not the same, like if you're here you're reinforced what you watch on a video. And you can ask what the main guy is. It's really good, it breaks it down. It's simple for the kids, hopefully they can understand. If they get on and I try to teach them during spring break, go through the six pillars, see what I can get. I had a girl make a 20 foot game this year in discus. We just finished our San Antonio camp, three camps down seven ago. And then our next stop is Niceville, Florida, just outside of Destin. I hope you're enjoying it and we'll try to make this interesting and fun. So thanks for watching and we'll see you on the next video.

The true story of a former serious organised crime agency detective who went undercover for 17 years but survived and came out of the other side dancing. Back in Maddox called working people by your big brother. It's on Amazon. I don't make much money ever to be fair. I wrote as a legacy document for my kids and people who didn't know because I lied to all my friends for 17 years about where I was and who I was. I made up stories about what I did that day and I never spoke about it and I have always been shy of talking about it and I am not a big headed guy. I have always played down who I really am. But I thought I've got the chance to see you and open the book a bit and open the story and then everyone who knows me because people will see this will say wow that's amazing. I know they are going to say that before we even get started because it's going to be a shock. Before we get into all the nitty-gritty though I always like to go back to the start with my guests. Get a bit of understanding about you, where you grew up and how it all began. So basically I don't have much recollection before 5 years old. Why is that? I don't know. I don't know because my memory won't go back any further. I don't know whether I cut it off. But not under 5 that I remember now. And what basically happened was my mum and dad, he was Catholic, she was Protestant and his family were really strict Catholic. And as far as I'm aware it's never been discussed. I think they eloped and got married. And he was a fit return at the Doxy Middlesbrough in the rough part of Middlesbrough in the northeast. And he got a job at Sarswood Power Station in Lason in Suffolk. And we all moved down there to Lason and it was idyllic. It was a brand new house. It was a short walk to the beach and dad worked at this nuclear power plant. But they had a lot of kids. By that time I was 5 and we had 4 kids. Which to me is ludicrous. When you haven't got a lot of money, having a lot of kids is just going to kill you. And us. So we had 4 kids. I went to school there when I was 5 years old. One of the two stories I really remember from my childhood was one day this lad called Porky Jones who was a school bully. He used to beat me at school but this time he ran home after me all the way to beat me at some point. And I got to the house, ran the doors, cried my eyes. I said Dad, Porky Jones is trying to kill me. He said come on, assemble, sort him out. So we marched back out the house, got to where Porky Jones was and dad goes right, sort him out son. Walked back and locked the door. And we had a massive fight on our garden lawn. And he beat me but the bullying stopped immediately and he wanted to be my friend. And I realised then that bullies don't want to be hit back. They want free hits. They're pushing themselves on a free hit. The last thing they want is a battle. And I gave them a battle and it changed my life completely as far as the fighting side of life is concerned. From that forward I thought I'm going to learn to fight no matter what. And then my mum, I went to the local news agency Mr Kemp's and I nicked 6 bars of caramac. And I took him home and I gave one to my sister. And Elizabeth, she grasped me up to my mum. My mum bagged in pigment by the ear and she slapped me up round the face every step of the way back to Mr Kemp's. She made me get down on my knees and apologise for thieving and give back the four caramac bars I'd left. And I thought, I'm never nicking another thing. I'm never going to be dishonest. I'm not a dishonest person anyway but that's really sealed the deal for me. And then mum and dad decided to go for another child, fifth child, like in six years and Tina was born but she died after three months. What we'd probably say would be a cop death now. And it blew the family apart, blew my mum and dad apart. They became argumentative, fighting and eventually the relationship with Tina at such a degree that we said we're going back to Middlesbrough to be near mum's parents in Middlesbrough. So we moved back and we moved into Grangetown which is literally one of the main shitholes of the northeast. It is not the jewel of the north, it's an absolute carzy. And they're knocking down houses to build slums there. And we moved in, five kids, four kids, so they wanted to die and they started having more kids. They had another three and think we have seven under ten years old. No money, dad like earning peanut money at the docks. And the local people who were in there, we had a southern accent, we weren't norms anymore. We got beaten senseless by everybody. They put me to the local school. We were so poor, I was the only kid in senior school in shorts. I had kicked in for that. And the other thing at the senior school, the civilian words they had, what they call it, they had toilets with bars above the doors. And you had to run, it was running the gauntlet, you had to run from one end and all the others would swing through and kick you in the face as you went through. I must have gone through there 30 times in the first year of that school getting kicked senseless by the other kids because of things that were wrong with me. That was no fault of my own, it was just poverty. And then my dad got a job in Saudi Arabia working for Amco Oil and his money went through the roof. And you think, this is going to be amazing. And I did, we all thought that, it's going to be great. And it was for a couple of months. But my dad was a bullshitter. And working with the guys in Bahrain, he told me he had no kids. He didn't want to meet his seven. And one of my younger sisters, she became a lynch, she became physically and mentally handicapped. Now there's two stories, one I've been known from birth which was that one of us swung her out of a pram and she hit the brick wall and she became mentally unwell and disabled. But recently in the last couple of years, my mum's sister has confided that mum took her, tried to abort her with a pill and that caused the brain damage. And I don't know which of those stories is true. But either way, she's now 59, but she's still alive, with a mental capacity of a three-year-old and spent virtually all of her entire life in a wheelchair. And I don't know where the truth is. That's a sad story. Because they had Lynn as number five. Tina was number five but she died. Then Lynn was number six. And she was handicapped. And then we had seven and eight effectively. I said to my mum and dad when I was older, what did you do that for? Why did you sentence us all to absolute poverty just to keep having children when there's no need? Three, four. I've only got two. Me and my wife, when I got married later, we said we can only afford two, we're having two then. And I've never understood why you'd have more unless you've got the money to give them a life, give them a good life. You bring kids into the world you can never give a good life to and I didn't understand it. And I never have. So he went to Bahrain, working for Ramco Oil. And then he stopped coming home. Because the guys who were out there didn't come home. They went to Malta. They had a six-week-on-six-week-off shift and they went to Malta and they just shagged prostitutes and got pissed. And he started doing the same. He stopped sending money home. So now we have seven kids, single parents, and mum going out to try and work to turn money at a bar. She started drinking. She became a chronic alcoholic. And my dad was a heavy drinker as well, all through our lives. And he did come back, he'd been in and out back as well over time, but not consistently enough to be of any influence on any of us. And me and my sister Elizabeth became the parents to the younger five. Because my mum and dad were incapable. They were pissed as far as all the time. My mum would drink like eight to 12 barley wines a day. And three would knock most adults out. And she used to pick fights with people. She was a really spiteful man. And my dad was really docile. So they'd go both when they were in the winter. They'd get pissed together. He'd fall asleep. She'd punch him in the face. That kind of thing, you know, or punch us. So we had an absolutely awful childhood. All the way through, all the time. For the 16 years I was a child, it was absolutely awful. No money, no clothes. Cross-dressing me with these clothes on all the time. No food. We used to eat. The principal diet was jam and bread. Or pork dripping or beef dripping on bread. We had one hot meal a week if we were lucky. We had no telling, no record player, no luxuries, no covers on our beds. We used to put coats on to go to bed at night. My dad would take his coat off when he went to work in the morning and leave me freezing on the bed. But there was no sheets, no blankets. It was absolutely awful beyond extreme. How does that dysfunctional family then play a massive part in your adult life from being bullied, from the disabled sister, the broken home, the alcoholic parents? How does that shape you as a person when you get older? Do you think it does a lot of damage or do you think it makes you appreciate life? It makes you appreciate life. I mean, and I'm going to quantify that by saying, I would say all of us, all the ones who were, like, apart from Linda was meant to have them couldn't walk if she wanted to. We've all become industrious, hardworking, honest people. All our lives, you know. My brother, my youngest brother, who was literally, who had the two younger ones, Gail and James, had that worst of it all. They had like, you know, because I joined the Navy at 16 and left them. They had the worst at all. And they still turned out really good people. And he's a multimillionaire now. You know, self-made millionaire. But you'd never think if you spoke to him. You wouldn't know he had a penny in his pocket. He's not flash. He's a real gent. And everybody, I know him, loves him. Yeah. It's like anything in life, no matter good or bad. Your life can go both ways. The same good or bad. I think there's a story of the alcoholic father and they had twins. One became the alcoholic just like his father. Another became a successful businessman who just didn't want to even touch drinks, see drink, be around people who drunk. But it's sad being in that sort of environment because when you understand the parents as well and how their past is and how they become alcoholics and the shit that they go through, it's hard. I don't blame them at all. I think, you know, any woman left alone with seven kids won them in a wheelchair. It took shit to wear this massive white sponge padded helmet. All the time because she threw fits and headbutted the wall. Or at least she was near, so she had to wear that. And again, going back to the cruelty of the North. I like Northern people. They are the salt of the earth people of the North, I think. They're much more friendly than the South. They're just really, really good people and they try the best for their families in difficult circumstances. But as an example of cruelty, my mum used to make me take Lynn out in the wheelchair for a walk to get some fresh air. So I'm walking in with the wheelchair that's up the road and then I see these two guys coming from the school. I mean, I'm in the senior school. And let's get that twat with a spacker. So they start chasing me. I've got the wheelchair pushing her and they're running after me. So I'm running like a fucking idiot. Like up the road like a loony. Absolutely petrified, crying. Crying my eyes out. And it catches, they beat the shit out of me, tipped her out of the wheelchair on top of me and run off. And I thought, how could you do that? What kind of mentality would make somebody do that? And that's when I think people are made wired differently, aren't they? Everybody's wired differently. I would never do that. I would never hurt a disabled person. I wonder if a normal person wasn't hurting me. But it's actually throw a disabled kid out of a wheelchair on top of the brubby of just beating up. I just don't get it. Yeah, that's some sick shit, that. Yeah, that's some next level. That's some deranged kids, that. Yeah. To even think that, but what if they've been through it to even be acting like that as well? I'm sorry. See, when you joined the Navy at 16, was that an easy decision just to get away or was it hard because you knew you were letting your younger siblings down? It was, well, it wasn't hard to join because I didn't intend to. What happened was, I was mixing with some of the criminals on the estate. Not doing anything wrong, not stealing bikes, we had motorbikes just to ride motorbikes around big motorbikes, no crash helmets, no insurance, no license all around the estate. And my mum thought that he's going to end up going to jail if I don't sort him out. So, she applied in my name for me to join the Navy. And I got a letter from the Royal Navy and said, oh, please come to Artlipal for a maths and English test to join the Navy. And I was like, what? My mum was like, well, you may as well go. You've got nothing else going for you. You're going to end up in trouble of ours. So I went, did the maths and English test and they had the interview and passed and then joined up in 1976. And it was a pull to get me away because I knew that my younger siblings were going to have an awful life, you know, literally. And to give me that again, my mum was cruelty. My younger sister Gail, when she was going through puberty, so she was living on about 11, 12, she stole something and mum found out. And mum stripped her off bollock naked, sat on the dining room table, put a sign around her head saying, don't feed or talk to me on my thief. And left her there for eight hours. And I thought, how can you do that to your kids? How can you be that cruel to your children? Discipline's completely frowned on though, which I'm not with. I'm with discipline. I think children need to know the rights and wrongs of the world. But that's just like a bridge way, way too far down the line. That's not a beat. My dad used to beat us all the time with a bat. They called it a smack bat. It was designed to smack you. They beat us with that. But my mum was immensely cruel. She was pissed. Unbelievably spiteful. Yeah. But then that makes you question what did happen to your sister back then as well. Yeah. Because if she's got seven kids, she clearly doesn't, she's not going to take anything for abortion because she's obviously went with seven. So whether she's been drunk, this is me just looking from it. You're saying it as a possibility that you're drunk and someone's crying and you're thinking fuck this and you know, and things get led out of hand. Like, what was your mum's upbringing? My mum had a good upbringing. My mum and dad's parents were strict but good. Dads were absolute arseholes, Catholics. And I'm not saying Catholics are arseholes. They were, they excommunicated. I never met them. I never met his family, any of them ever in my life. You know, they excommunicated when they married mum. Whereas with his mum's mum and dad, dad, this is a game which I will talk about before we start about the seismic shift in power of women and men nowadays. When I used to, my grandma, just to get food now and then because he never got fed at home. And I remember my grandad Jim coming in. He'd walk in from work. He worked at I-Shire, the petrochemical factory. He'd walk in. He'd sit down on his chair in front of the fire which was lit by my grandma. She'd come out the kitchen, undo his shoelaces, take his shoes off, put them to one side, put his slippers on his feet, light his pipe, put it in his mouth and say, I'll be back in a minute with the dinner, Jim. Can you imagine anybody doing that now? You know, to that level of obedience to the man. But yeah, they were strict but they were nice. Yeah, same stuff. And their mum had good sisters and brothers and they supported us as well. They knew we were having an awful time and although they didn't live anywhere near us, they used to drive and pick us up and take us out for days out and that kind of thing. But it was, childhood, I have no fun memories of childhood at all, none at all. So what was it like then from being bullied, like I say, the dysfunctional kind of family, full of chaos to then go into an aviary. Was it a total culture for you when you're thinking, was it more peaceful though? Or was it another form of bullying? What was it like when you weren't there? The services are a form of bullying and I actually feel that it's, I rather call it discipline when it's like that. When they're trying to get you to be something, to be clean, to wash your own clothes, to iron, to cook, to be self-sufficient, to polish your boots. I think for me, it was like, what, I like this. I like the fact that they want me to be fit. They want me to be tidy, because I always want to be tidy. In my school report when I left The William Worses, when I passed the exam at the grammar school, it said, Rob is a very bright individual, but he needs to take more care of his personal appearance. I thought, what kind of fucking teacher? I thought I wore the clothes I wore by choice. You know, it just doesn't happen, does it? I enjoyed discipline. I loved it. I took to like Dr. Walter. Did that happen? Is that because of the shit you went through? I cared the kekins, the beatings, and that became normal, but it was easier because, you know, it was helping you in a way. And also, with that kind of upbringing we had, I would say I can't be hurt. I can't be hurt emotionally. I can't be hurt physically, because I've been massively emotionally and physically hurt a lot. I'm not saying I wouldn't cry if something was sad, but I'm not frightened of anybody. I'm not frightened of anything in the world. If you're prepared to kill me, that's fine. I'm not worried about it. I'm not worried about dying. I've got no... I've got respect for my own life, but I don't think about my... I don't protect my life, do you know what I mean? I couldn't have done what I did for 17 years if I was worried about my life, because I could have died many, many times over that period. What did you do in anything then? I joined the Navy in 1976, and I originally went into Palaeus submarines up at Phas Lane. Yeah, it's up near Lott-Lawman. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Up at Phas Lane. But I hated it. Why? Well, because the nuclear submarines, the Palaeus submarines, which are basically nuclear deterrent submarines, they leave Phas Lane, they sink, they disappear for three months, and when they come back up, they're at Phas Lane. And I joined the Navy to travel, but I went in there for money, because it was £13 a fortnight more if you went to the submarines. So I was on £11 a week. I thought £13 a fort is a lot of money. I'll go for that. But when I got it, I didn't like it. So I came back, retrained, and then went to normal ships as a radar operator. What's that like? You know, the things that spin on the top of the ships? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That control all the, can you tell you what, everything that's around you, aircraft, ships, everything. And in operations, when I worked in there, and I did nine years doing that in the Navy for the Royal Navy as a radar operator. And I got promoted a couple of times. There's some good stories about that, that is, we went on my first trip, I joined HMS Exeter up on the time being built, and we joined, I joined in 79, and the dockyard worker just came to the ship. Fishing rod, sleeping bag, no work. I was there for a year. They didn't do a stroke. And then they obviously, the government had put in the pressure on him to get the ship out. So they pulled all the stops out, did thousands of pounds of overtime and then got the ship ready. But they were then screaming about why have the time shipyards been demised? Why have they been shut down? The next contract from the Navy went to Hamburg after Exeter because you can't have people coming on board for a year at a time and doing nothing, doing no work. And it was union controlled. So nobody got sacked, nobody did nothing. And then after the Exeter, we went, first of all, we went to Portugal, a place called Porto. And the docks are always in the rough part of town. Any docks tend to be in the rough part of the city. And we had to cross the bridge to get to the main town for nights out. Every night, our lads were getting robbed at a knife point by thugs, Portuguese thugs. And then me and the other couple of lads, we said, right, we're not seeing enough. We're going to stop this tonight. So we called together 40 guys, watched the cult movie The Warriors. You see that one? Yeah. Watched The Warriors. And then we self, me and the several I called out, and we walked across the bridge where the robbers were all taking place, pretending to be pissed. We had 40 guys armed to the gills, hockey sticks, baseball bats, everything. Six people come along with a woman, attacked us with knives. We shouted to the boys. They came out. We absolutely chased them into the town and battered them to fucking death. Beat them all to sense, smashed the cafe window and smashed the 10 guys in there in the cafe. And then the big gang came about 100 strong. And I was going to start running now because it's starting to get a bit frightened. It was a proper full-on riot. They ran away. And there was about 20 of us left and there was 100 of them. And my mate goes, charge! We went running towards them like idiots. And they ran away. 100 people plus ran away. And then we heard gunshots and the police came. They started firing guns at us. So we ran back to the ship and they stormed the whole town, so they stormed the ship. And we had to put firehouses on them with 200 psi and keep them at bay. So that was that. See when you're doing the radar thing where you're under attack, how far can it spot? Oh, the air ones. 240 miles. So that's how far it goes out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Probably a long further now, yeah. So few were under attack, but how long does it take for a few were under attack? A plane could get 240 miles in what? Oh, yeah. Oh, without a doubt. 10 minutes, 10 minutes. Well, the only excuse, and I wasn't in, I didn't go to the Fortress War, but it was 82 when I was in at the time. But like I said, it was an absolutely frightening experience there for all the boys on the ships. You know, if they had a bit more bolt, they'd have done a lot more damage. But they didn't want to get, they couldn't come up high because the radar would get them and they couldn't come down too low because of the terrain. So a lot more people would have died. And I don't fancy ship's chances much in a war. Proper war. Yeah, stop. How fast do submarines and ships go? 30 knots. Yeah, that's nothing. Nothing, no, no. You can't run away for sure. How fast do some of those those fighter jets go as well? 700, 800 miles an hour? 2,000 miles, yeah. Do you have 1500 miles? Yeah, yeah. That's crazy, isn't it? And also the missiles. How fast does a missile go? I'm not sure because I might have been out there. But what they do is the missiles are launched from wherever they're launched. And then some of them they'd drop, like Super Tendal, they'd drop to the floor, the missile's exorcet. And then they'd run along the ground, you know, like a foot off the waves. You can't see them with the radar screen. Because some of these ships and airplanes they would fly up. They're not even registered in the radar. Is that correct? Yeah, yeah, they made them. They designed them to be not, you know, not picked up by radar. Yeah, yeah. So fuck that. I'm glad you don't know. Well, I did think, because what I was in, in 82, you've ever heard a field gun? No. Right. There used to be a thing called the Royal Navy Field Gun Competition, which was at Earl's Court in front of the Royal Family. And it's basically running a gun in a limber box with teams and racing around a circuit, a man-made circuit. And in 82 I was running field gun for Portsmouth. And that's another real test of like mental strength and physical strength and fitness. And I run there. So when the fort was cracked off they kept the field gun going and I didn't go to war at all. Then I stayed with field gun. So how did the corpus come about? What, what was the plans? Basically what happened was when I was the helicopter controller for HMS Exeter, the pilot who had saved his life a couple of times when things had gone a bit hairy because of radar skills. So what happened? Well, it was gone, it was suddenly like covered in a complete fog. He couldn't see the ship. So I had to bring him back using the radar screen. And there was a tiny, tiny blip the size of a, you know, cocoa pop on the screen. And I'm bringing him back to the ship 10 miles away. I got him back on board with the procedures that were, were trained. How do you navigate that then? So how does, how does, what's the navigation skills then for you to gate that onto the ship? If he can't see, what does he go by? He goes by what you're telling him. Everything you tell him to do, he does. Like to the end direction. Yeah. So he'll go, I'll go drop 200, come left, come right, you know, all the way until he eventually he gets to the point where he's about a foot from the ship and you can see it. And then he lands. And so I saved him a couple of times there. How dangerous are helicopters? Because you always see them crash. Like never should be flying. They're agricultural flying machines. That's how they've been described by the military. And, but he said to me, the pilot, he said, look, he said, because you've been so good and done some things that have helped me out a lot, he said, I'm going to take him and let you have a flyer, the Lynx helicopter in the training seat. So I said, all right. And so I'll go into the training seat. He let me fly for 15 minutes. He says, Rob, he says, you are a natural pilot. He said, you've got all the function skills to fly. It's something to recommend you for pilot training. And he did. And it would have been at the time when the just jump jet Harriers were coming out. He said, if you passed the flying course, he said, you will be a jump jet Harrier pilot. I would have been made for life then. But being a wanker at school, barking about fighting, not paying attention, not making everybody laugh because I was the class comedian everywhere I've been. I didn't take any exams. I didn't pass any exams. So he sent the report off the avenue to get me to fly helicopters and jump jets. And about three months later he came back. Sorry. Can't come into the dark with Naval Training College without 5-0 levels. Five GCSEs. Sorry. Not good enough. And now I fought then. I was capable of getting the GCSE, but I didn't care about them. And I picked myself for years after that. I've got to say, because I could have been flying planes now. You know what I mean? Stay there going under cover with gangsters. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Did you have it? I had it. I had it. I said, you're welcome. The flying planes would have been less dangerous. Yeah. So I... So anyway, you said you're an unprecedented, you can't come to dark with no levels. So the pilot goes, I'm not having that. He dug his heels and then he sent me to HMS Nelson where they had an elevator. And I started doing O-level courses a week in a month to O-level. And I passed the first one in a week, English. So I thought, right, I'm doing it. I'm doing physics, maths and tours, but I couldn't get physics. And while I was there doing the education center stuff, the police turned up and did a recruitment drive. And I went to the seminar and I went, that sounds a bit fun. And that's how I'm leaving to join the police, because I couldn't get the physics. And I gave it two goes and I applied to join the police. What age did you join them? 25. Do you regret that decision? Not at all. Do I regret not... My biggest regret is not passing the O-levels at school. If I could say anything to anybody going forward, get in there and get them exam results because sometimes that's all that counts. You know, particularly with skills like that, with flying and jobs that involve that kind of stuff. They want the O-levels. They want the qualifications up front. And I could have probably got up but I didn't care enough. Because it's easier to get into the police if you've got Malatru Bank going. It was then. I'm not sure if it is now. When I joined the police I had no O-levels. I had one English. And I applied for Hampshire and the Met. And the Met said, yes. The Hampshire said, yes, you've been in a year. And the Met said, yes, you're coming now. So I said, right, I'll join. So I joined the Met in July 84. What was that like? I spent a lot of time in the train. More and more I've spent a lot of fun because I haven't got a negative side to me at all. I always look at the positive and the even in the worst situations. And I remember I joined the police and I was 25, ex-military and there was all these young lads around us and girls and that who literally were wet behind the ears. And I was kind of became the father figure to the to the class that I was in. And went through the train to school 20 weeks. A couple of good stories and let people read them in the book because they're funny. Tell us one. Well, I'll tell you what it was. There's two tower blocks in Hinden, one for women and one for men. And I'm in the bar. We had a bar on the basement floor and men and women were banned from being in the other blocks. It was a complete taboo. It was a sack of the fence. So I'm sitting at the bar and one of the girls passing me a piece of paper there and I picked it up and she said, I want to fuck you. Be at my room, 311, in the girls block in five minutes. So I was like, Oh, OK. So I fold the paper and put me back in. I said, I'm really tired I've got to go to bed. I goes back to the men's block and gets in the lift and two squaddies get in the lift with me. Two ex-army guys. I said, I can't go down. I've got to go up. So I'd go with them until they get out and then I get out at myself and run back down the stairs. But what they did was one of them had a shit in the lift. I don't know what I said. Squaddie's idea of humor to have a drop of turd in the lift. Sick folks. But I didn't know that. So I run into the block go up to her get to her room not the door on my chest my chest is fucking popping out my chest and I opened it and she's got suspenders, stockings and a basket on and we fuck like rabbits for a couple of hours and then we fall and it's drunk and sleep. I wake up at 10 to 8 for an eight o'clock parade. Oh, Jesus Christ. I run down back downstairs down to the basement through the tunnels that lead underneath the both the blocks bump into the cleaner and she faints because she gets such a shot with me running around the corner and she faints on the floor and I keep running I don't stop I run up and get changed and I get to the parade with about a minute of spare. They do all the parade and they're like all marching and then the other side goes he said right he said there's been something happened last night that's gotta be sorted out. He said and I'm thinking oh it's me it's me I've fucking done it I've not fucked myself somebody had a shit in the lift. I knew exactly what I've never said a word he says that person is we've said we've taken the turd we're going to friends that examine it and that man will be found in charge he'll all be given a DNA sample or a sample for blood or something and so it was like ooh and I thought fuck it's not me and he goes and there's another thing somebody made the cleaner faint when they ran past them from the women's block and then he starts marching the other instructor starts marching the cleaner over and says gentlemen off caps so we'll take our hats off so they can see our heads and she does a full parade she says a full march down the parade trying to identify the person who made her faint but she doesn't and the drill sergeant is absolutely going off on one and he goes to me so meet me in my office in five minutes now I want to talk to you how can you know it's me but I get in there and he goes right to me he says I want the name of the person who's shit in the lift and the phantom fucker by the end of the week because they're getting sacked he said do your best I said yes sir I know got clean up anyway the guy a guy confessed to shit in the lift why he confessed because he thought he'd be identified by the term he got sacked but I never confessed so I lived on what was the training like really hard really hard because you have to cram a lot in it's 20 weeks and it's all law legislation you have to pass an exam every week if you don't pass if you don't pass one you get a bone you don't pass two you're gone you get kicked out so it's really hard where did you go when you passed then what sort of one's worth South London yeah just up the road here so straight on there it depended do you go the beat at the start walking around the streets yeah you have to do two years on the beat that's mandatory and then you learn your trade basically and again that's another it's another shop because what you don't realize when you're a civilian and by that I mean a non-civilian you don't realize how much bad goes on everywhere you know people do things which you like turn your stomach you know you're going to houses and it's just how can they be living here you know shit all over the floor all over the walls you'd be used to that being fucking doing the trade of course even though it was just that tears when people would get used to it it was shitting everywhere but it's a culture shock the police because you deal with the bad in most people most of the time you very rarely deal with the good in anybody you're always dealing with the the problem side of society and there's very little there's very little plus points to be in a policeman because nobody really wants you there truthfully you know people say we police by consent but as soon as that blue light goes on behind you you're not my friend but as soon as when I was raised in Glasgow I was always raised to hate the police to hate them I don't ever tell them nothing I hate them they're pigs they're bastards and it's only to maybe 5-10 years since I've been doing this job when I actually speak to people and you speak to police officers you realize how strong they are to do the job that they do and the things that they see dead kids dead bodies road accidents abuse rapes like that child abuse that that's some dark stuff that not a lot of people would do so I've got nothing but respect for anybody who joins the police force listen there's corruption everywhere we know it good and bad and every fucking job in the world but every police officer I've had on every undercover copperman I've got nothing but respect because what they go through in a daily basis and what they see is beyond people's worst nightmare because it's some dark stuff and like you say it's not a positive job it's a job of hate it's a job of destruction and pain and misery it's a negative job but everything you see is negative every court case every bad man every bad woman every bad child and it's sad as well because always say this but just because you've done bad things it doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person certain circumstances certain things that you've been raised are seen in your own life that makes you do things that not necessarily you want to do but you're just programmed to then think it's normal and it's sad but so when you started on the beat what was the worst thing you've seen at the start? the start in the first two years the worst thing I've seen was there's a place called Manor Fields in Putney Hill it's a big rich person's block of flats was back in the day and we were talking 1984 85 now and I used to live above Putney Play Station in the men's single accommodation because I had a house in ports with a single accommodation down in living there and I was awoken in the morning by what would sound like the biggest bomb in the world going off literally it shook the building where I was sitting in bed and we got called out and because I was older than everyone the guys said Rob, you're in charge of property and bodies which means I was out of the response for a recovering any property and blogging it and bagging it and dealing with any corpses I'd never seen the corpse before in my life and this gas explosion that Putney Manufils had pulled a free story high block down into the basement every flat every flat was in the basement there was nothing that was leveled but the explosions have been so big and in one of the rooms there was an elderly couple who had been decapitated there both of them in bed by steel girders and you could see into their heads it was just absolute carnage and I it's hard not to I think the thing that made me survive was I've learnt over time to compartmentalise my life so although I was there dealing with absolute carnage when I went I just went gone didn't think about it anymore but that was the worst thing and the clapping train question was in the same at the same time I didn't get involved in that deliberately not when I said volunteers they didn't put my hand up because I don't want to be seen I don't want to see carnage you know I don't like it but your whole life had been carnage and I know you say you shut off your feelings and emotions where like you say it's a little switch switch off but it's still there oh for sure it's still there now that we know the science behind it and how the brain functions and operates the brain is so powerful we still don't actually know what its purpose is 100% we still don't realise how powerful it can be if you actually tap into it but we know it stores everything no matter how smart ass you think you can be we're blocking it out I don't think about that anymore it's still there well I'll give you an example James it was because that's very very true I was I was at the tube station going to court at Suffolk and I was waiting for the train and I thought there's a woman in front of me I was standing at the back because all the pickpockets get the people at the front if you stand there with your back to the wall you can't be pickpocketed and that's how it works and also when I was a mental patient pushed the woman in the train when it came in in the station because she was the next to the platform pushed and killed her at the institution I was at the back and there's a woman at the front of the fur coat and I thought she must be roasted it's a summer's day she's got a fur coat on full thick fur coat and it's the train I'm like that and just felt myself kept being drawn back there like that and then when the train got close she dived in front of it chopped herself in half at the torso and took her head off at the other side so she was in three bits fucking hell because I was literally staring at her staring at her when it happened and the train stopped and a nurse went and looked after the drive an hour and up to them the platform cleared within a millisecond of everybody was screaming and just running I went towards the train everyone else runs the other way and I ran up to the driver and he said yeah I'm fine if I'm shaking and you could see it was as white as a ghost and the nurse stayed with him and I waited at the bottom of the steps for the ambulance and the fire brigade to arrive and the ambulance man comes running down and he says I'll get into the train and render first aid I said mate I said unless you can blow from that head there to that body down there it ain't going to work I said don't go down on the track because it's not safe so he didn't but the reason I'm mentioning that story is because for 20 years that haunted me you know literally when I was when I'm driving my car on a long journey on the motorway and you sort of you've got your hand like that and the other wheel on the coffee you're slipping to water by it don't you and whenever that happened to me she jumps in front of my car literally but for 20 years she jumped in front of my car I fucking braked hard on one occasion and on the other I did a 360 spin at 70 miles an hour because of that because she jumped in front of my car so see what was it like getting your first arrest when you were on the beat I was a prolific thief-taker because of my age I think I took to policing like a doctor but I was a very fair man and I'll give you an example of that I never nicked any bit of drink drive because drink drive it's a sin to drink drive I get that but all the cops did it back then and all of them to a man they don't do it now because it's a sack of the fence and you know there are people there all nicky but everybody used to drink drive and I used to think myself if you nicked some bit of drink drive you destroyed his life because if he's working for a living you can't get there anymore his family is going to suffer his kids are going to suffer so I used to say to people on the drink drive look mate you obviously had a good skin form I can see that I'm not going to breathalyze you but if you put your keys down that roadside drain that's a done deal you can't drive from killing anybody at my behest I'm going to let you go and do that and you've learnt a lesson you'll have to buy a new set of keys 70 quid not one single person ever took the take me to the police station option and I used to deal with everybody like that I used to deal with everybody the way I wanted them to deal with me if the roles were reversed be decent I've never thumped anybody in the police I never felt the need I used to say to them let an enemy mate calm yourself down we can sort this out but we've got to do it in a nice way we can't do it if you scream at me I'm not screaming at you and that makes a massive impact on the way I was dealt with by the public the way I dealt with them and I think a lot of guys now cause their own demise to the police because they go straight in hard and once you've gone in hard you can't pull down it's mad because every cop I've interviewed they do struggle with mental health and one of the guys says a lot of coppers drink while on the job because of the shit they see do you think there's enough things in place for the police to then speak about your feelings and emotions not at all it's like the military a lot of the homeless guys on the street are ex-veterans yeah, yeah I did try and help them as people when I was in London in my area I said come on mate let's get you help let's get you sorted everybody's got a story aren't they I've never treated anybody like they're not a human and a lot of the black people that black culture I would say very anti-police I mean the culture in the main is very anti-police but it's not you can change that if you deal with them like they're decent people and I used to talk to them the same as I talk to you it's just another man and I think the whole racism it's been stirred up and back in the 70s when I was a nipper my sister ran away with a black guy and got married in London you know it was unheard of back then in the north there wasn't many black people up there but she broke them old and a black guy married them and had three kids fair play to her but back then racism, yeah now I'm not so sure I think people are playing it now to make things worse not better yeah it was heavy but back in the day I think oh it was when I was a nipper it was really really bad but now I think people don't like you now whatever you are whatever your sexuality whatever your colour creed if they don't like you now it's because you're probably a bit fat yeah I think it still goes on like there's racism in every colour every culture yeah there is yeah but when I walk along the streets I'm not seeing people fighting I'm not seeing people calling each other names that's not a lot of people are silent racist as well a lot of people pretend that they're not but there still are like but you don't when you walk the streets London is a bit London's probably the only city where it is a bit you don't feel 100% safe here there's an energy about it sometimes and it feels as if it can kick off sometimes I've got that feeling when I was in the Belfast this way I don't know if it's because of the troubles back in the day but listen I love the Londoners I love the people at Belfast they're amazing they're friendly they're fucking crazy but there's always that everything I go with is the vibe from where I am and there's always a maybe not so much the last few months but the last year or two when I was in London it always felt a bit uneasy yeah I don't know what that is I'm awfully tensioned here yeah why do you think that is I don't know I mean people say it's poverty in that but if that was the case I've got a right to be tense do you know what I mean you couldn't have had a worse life than me from 0 to 16 I don't know I think generally society is changing and not in a good way I think the way the kids are being brought up is not good I think this technology like taking kids' lives away you know I see people at three two four get home on the iPad four or five hours the interaction skills that you need as humans are disappearing I think definitely so you're on the beat for two years what was the steps do you go straight under cover after the two years are there other places you have to you have to be recommended for under cover you can't just apply somebody has to say I think you'd be good so what I went from ones of to Chiswick did a spell at Chiswick and the boss there he recommended for two posts one was to go under cover and the other one was to the flying squad at Barnes so I applied for both those jobs and got them got both the flying squad the flying squad the flying squad yeah the flying squad they've got an awful reputation from the 70s of being corrupt and fitting people up and all that kind of stuff and I can't say whether that was true or false because they were just shooting the Roppels weren't they they could shoot on see they had because I've seen the documentaries about the porn squad and I've seen them stories and I think myself how the fuck did they survive in the police but they did but when I joined in 84 I would say the flying squad was a group of very professional very decent guys so what is the flying squad for people who don't know the flying squad is the armed robbery squad which are the Sweeney as the villains call it it's a group of guys who deal solely with robberies on banks building societies jewellery and any major thefts a large amount of money or gold and that kind of stuff they deal with it that's what the flying squad do, that's their remit and there are armed robberies every day in London they're so frequent they don't even make the news whereas where I live if it was an armed robber it would be mayhem it would be in every paper but in London they don't make the news and the armed robber used to be the tough guys crime it was the top I used to admire the armed robbers because they were the top flight of the criminal world but now they're not they're just people who've got a gun because getting guns is easy you can buy a gun in London sawn off for 250 handgun for 400 800 brand new bullets you know the robber now he's not the same he's not the skilled money used to be he's not and there'd be four as well which I think is absolutely true they had an unwritten code not to shoot anybody between themselves you know but now they do shoot people people get shot now and robberies guards get shot even if they've given them money up so I think that's the society mental change it's alright to shoot people it's alright to kill people when you're doing your bit of work yeah it's just like you say there's no morals you listen to all the gangsters back in the day there was a sort of level of respect even looked respectable the way they dressed the dress sharp the suits, the ties unless you don't agree with what they do of course not at the cause of destruction and pain but there's a level of respect that you can give them no women or kids get hurt like you say people aren't getting shot they're not taking hostages and killing them now it's ruthless now it's a free-for-all I don't know if it's from the younger school where they're dressed in tracksuits and young girls are getting killed at fucking 12 and 14 and it just seems more ruthless now I don't know if that's because there's not as many gangsters they used to be where there was a level of respect and they had their man are under control and controlled it a bit but obviously this in the fear setting drugs and causing destruction as well it's a hard one but do you see the big change from the 80s to now? oh 100% 100% well I say the main things I've noticed is the crime is a lot more ruthless and brutal and the police are a lot less effective nobody respects them any more nobody cares nobody cares about the police and the police don't care either to be fair and I do get that a bit because in the police you can walk at the police station at 8 o'clock and walk back in at 4 o'clock and have done nothing all day and nobody cares you know what I mean not stopped anybody not done anything not even answered the radio once nobody says anything I think if they sent to the police tomorrow going forward I want a documented account of your day every day 75% have to leave because they do nothing so the document of the day it's like I thought you had to get certain targets and get certain requests no no no don't get me wrong it's a hard when you start saying we're going to target people to get a rest then you're going to say people are going to say I haven't got my rest off you could say that you could argue that I'm not saying it would happen nowadays back in the day yes nowadays in the 2020s like everything has changed but I would say public sector workers 75% do nothing 25% do everything when I was a police officer on my relief as a uniform cop I arrested more people for criminal offences than the rest of my relief of 15 people put together in a year how can that be well I know it is because people don't and again it's not my way but why would you go out and bust your bollocks trying to get things done when you don't get the support of the court you don't get the support of the system and you don't get any more money and you're likely to get complaints and end up losing your job why would you do it they seem more sensible than we're doing for a call it is more sensible doing nothing because you're safe then you're in a safe environment and you've got your 30,000 a year for your entire time you're there and you're never going to lose your job because you've never done that thing wrong because you're getting used anyway yeah of course getting used well for sure whether it's like people in the military you're getting used whether you live or die they don't care when you're out it's just the revolving door is someone else's drip back in yeah same as the drug dealers and the criminals somebody family member top boy gets to account there's somebody straight in they replace that yeah it's just a revolving system that we're in it's like a sausage factory yeah meeting one end sausage whole life so how long are we on the flying squad for five years it's a five-year post you have to move every five years so five years maximum yes what sort of jobs are we on loads loads of armed robberies loads of like career criminals I was on the surveillance team for a while and they're following them until they come to do that robberies on the security like the bank then we'd attack them with the guns and overpower them and that would be that they'd go down they'd get off a coat they nearly all got off a coat what's that feeling like from military kingdom on the radar sitting in your ass to then flying squad you're then holding a shooter you're then sitting behind robbers who are tooled up as well shot guns whatever they're using what was it like your first job to go what's in the drilling rush on the flying squad when you're following people rob a security van and you're going to hit them afterwards as soon as they've done it it's a massive adrenaline rush it's like for them as well I think it's a massive adrenaline rush and then a complete flop to the floor because they've suddenly they think 15, 20 seconds we're going to be millionaires and we're behind thinking 15, 20 seconds you're all going to jail if you get snipers on the roof as well if it's necessary when do you hit them so somebody's got to rob the bank when do you hit them do you hit them when they're going to the bank go to the bank outside the bank walking in the bank walking out the bank what sort of evidence have you got to get because if you're going to hit them before they go to the bank they can say well we weren't going to the fucking bank they may get done for their gun but it's not the full conviction that you want so how does it plan the best way which I would if I had been in charge of an operation would say well let it run let it run like we're not here because it would happen if we weren't here anyway if we weren't particularly behind them at this time it would happen but it's a ball as a steel job as a person in charge because if they shoot one of the guards if they shoot one of the tellers in the bank there's going to be a world of pain coming because you let it happen but if you don't let it happen and this is why I said about the acquittals are so high if you're bowling while they're outside the bank just about to do the work and I'll give you an example we had three guys they were being found security delivery at Acton three good armed robbers seasoned armed robbers and the boss didn't want to hit the van when it came so soon as the van came we called a strike and we hit them because they were in the van behind where the van was going to park they were going to come out with the balaclavas on everything and hit the van we hit them just as they start to open their door of their van they get the call oh no we weren't in Rob's security van we've had a guy called Johnny Wilson he's been robbing the pensions of their pension books we were going to frighten the shit out of him that's what we were going to do we weren't going to rob the van the charge was a bit narrow we weren't going to do that we got off smart you can only get charge work inspirations if they've caught up with the planning of it and the details but I think nowadays with technology and phones I think there's so much information that people can get quite easily it's definitely the catchment the tools there that catch people now when I was backing up Ben and Ben it was infancy when I was in the police we used to say to them don't want to get some surveillance photos just go to the Facebook page yeah go to Instagram but Instagram now go to Instagram you'll say let's tell you where they're going tonight or where they're going to be they've already accepted the invite you know so there's ways there's detective ways of doing it now but yeah the system is the legal system is fucked because it's not designed to convict anybody it's designed to acquit did you ever shoot anybody in a flying squad? no did you ever get shot at? yeah what was that feeling? it's fear in fact I'm going to clarify that a bit for you James it's absolute fear to be there to do the job you know what I mean it's not there isn't a policeman in the country I don't believe who actually physically wants to kill anybody it's just not in our make-up it's not in our psyche to kill people and it takes a special kind of person to kill somebody and not have an impact on their emotional well-being it does it's not the norm and I I'll give you an example we were outside a bank in Tooting and the first three guys nearest to the armed robber when the strike went in they fired two of them completely and one of them in the leg and they were this far apart because it's not natural to go at it it's not a natural feeling even the military back in the day they used to when they had the muskets and that they've done surveys the soldiers couldn't kill when they recovered their weapons from the battlefield they had like eight bullets eight bits of warring eight bits of gunpowder in it they hadn't pulled the trigger even though the boss had said standing fire they hadn't done it it's not an easy thing it's a frightening, horrible thing to kill somebody I think serial killers and killers they've got it because a lot of the killings in prison as well a lot of people have done it on high on alcohol and drugs because I spoke to an SES soldier and he says over 90% of people hold a gun miss yes because it's the shaking all over the place to be ruthless and cold-hearted and cold-blooded to gun in that frame of mind there's something I miss like you say with your psyche with your feelings your emotions to be that stone cold killer and I've interviewed snipers but you can see the damage that they've got in their mind because it's not a humane thing you shouldn't be seeing destruction of other human beings that's why a lot of people come back from military the wars their heads are gone because they screams they shout their bodies you've seen that girl in the train it's not normal well the army and the police changed their targets we used to shoot at a target with nothing on it but they changed them so when they turned you'd see a man it would be a photograph of a man obviously it would be a man or a woman or something and you would shoot because even the army thought their own men aren't shooting to it it's it even though they're trained and they've done all the courses when a real person stood in front with real eyes and looking back can't do it see if you have intelligence for to catch these people before they get into the bank is that through snitches or is it through your own intelligence and certain things over the years all sorts you know you do get informants talking about armed robbery you do get just people sadly or gladly whichever you look at a lot of criminals brag about what they're doing and it gets to the wrong ears and they say oh so so he's doing a bit of robbery he's had it off well you know if he's doing a robbery and he's had it off so he's got to follow him who's the most who's the biggest bank robber out there that you've you've seen and your time the biggest bank robber I wasn't do you remember the Easterbrooks no they got shot at the Abattoir I wasn't on that job but I was in the job at the time but the two guys who I respect because they're completely professional robbery and now if I think if you're going to be a if you're going to earn money from arm robbery live in a nice house live well if you're going to take the level of risk that's going to get you 30 years live well don't live in the council house with no money you're no other pot to piss in what's the point you're putting yourself off of 20 years jail and all you're getting out of is peanuts go big or go home basically how much were they making back then how much was the the banks and stuff half in because if it was cash back then I'd imagine it was more no more than when it was no but the most box house is 15K yeah and that's what you're going to get if you hit the guard on the pavement with the box the most unit is 15K but I've seen people get away with free free grand in coin and go to prison for 20 years imagine getting free grand in coin yeah one team in East London they nicked a security van the whole van they got 3 million in coin absolutely useless unless you're going around with 50 pound bags of pound coins when you go for dinner we miss this so they get 3 million pound coins yeah how heavy was that van tonnage we're talking tonnage yeah but they got caught because they kept going back to get the pound coins same as a kid in Glasgow he robbed the bookies for that 120 quid get 11 years do you know what I mean like people it's not smart I talked about me in the book there's a guy called David Ewing he was a career armed robber really hard man had a fierce reputation in jail never mind on the outside he robbed a post office in Hammersmith bridge road for 300 quid he came out the old bill were passing an armed old bill were passing by chance and they shot him dead 300 quid no raise a smaft that's a good friend of mine he get out of prison for a robbery and went straight out of prison just went in and done a bank that day got a McDonald's bag put it over his head and then robbed it see far things that robberies in the 70s and 80s see because they're all done now could they still get done with them now even though it was like 40-50 years ago I don't know the Yanks have got statute of limitations haven't they where you've got a certain amount of time to charge them with the crime after the event I don't know about England I've never really given that any thought I don't know so you says you are undercover and flying squad at the same time how could you do both well because undercover work you can dip in and out of it because you don't have to be there all the time so one of my first jobs undercover was to buy three killers of heroin from East London gangsters and I was on the flying squad at the time and but Ben mind I'd done two years in uniform at Wandsworth so the guy to meet the guys and the guy comes to meet me and I had a long hair in the ponytail then and he goes this is a turkey show because I knew as soon as I saw you you were a drug dealer I thought why I know Fox I've got a ponytail but so anyway I got him to we started talking about the three killers and all he tells you was that the guys were from East London but we get in the car where's he drive to Garrett Lane Wandsworth to the spotted dog pub which I'd raided him not less than a year earlier for drugs I'm sitting in the car fuck me this is going to get naughty I can't get out of the car but anyway ran in brought the next guy back in the food chain who's offering up the heroin and he got in the car with us and I recognized him from the pub but he didn't recognize me and I was sat there I'm telling you I had a bead of sweat running down my back and when I got out of the car the seat was wet how was that feeling for going undercover did you feel you could create a new character for yourself and be something different especially the upbringing that you had what it felt new, it felt fresh and you didn't have to be that scared bullied little boy that you were does that come into play yeah but I mean I would say definitely it helped me to you know my persona is my council house background I've seen a few of your podcasts being in a council house having this shit upbringing makes you into a strong person or rather makes you a breaksuit one of the two you know what I mean or you go off the rails my best mates at home who was a friend of mine all from my childhood he died of heroin overdose and everyone got life from a break seeing you go undercover why don't they take you out of your butter or the air that you wear just so it's more clean cut where you've got a fresh image of being around where you can take the risk and get took to a pub that you've actually raided like that's a massive risk it is it is it just works that way and it never caused me any grief at all bent cops caused me grief like saying I know him he's a cop when I was working but it never caused me any grief at all but it was a it's always a worry bent corpus was that people on the pay oh yeah is there a lot of corrupt corpus I wouldn't say there's a lot I was undercover for 17 years and I've found two so that's not really a lot I think I'd have found more if they'd have been about but to me if they said to me right Rob we're looking for somebody to execute bent cops I'd sign up oh well honestly because one of the guys who dubbed me in on a job if they'd have been any different kind of people than the ones that they were they were decent gangsters they just took me to one side and taught me so that bent cop for 50 quid on a quid could have seen the end of my life how do you end up going undercover for 17 years without your cover being blown was it ever close only when somebody else said like two jobs I did which is the ones I'm talking about and in the book where a bent cop drove past the wine bar where I was with the villains where it was that side he said I know him his name is this his real name so that job killed that killed that job and another job I went to Vegas to infiltrate some people from the UK and a guy back in England said there's two undercover cops trying to catch you beware so how do you then so when you get a target so do you get paperwork to say okay this family's doing gear they're shifting because the coppers know everything I think everybody knows now they've got a rough idea of what people's doing what they're moving how much money they have especially with the technology bugs and the surveillance that everybody's got they know everything especially with informants but back then in the nineties how would that work how would that job work do you get sheets of paper photos to say okay target this family how does it start well I was probably the infiltrator for the firm really because I can walk into a place cold if you said to me right Johnny Riggs the best armed robber in the world drinks in this pub I could walk him I could be his mate within a week I was really good at that and that was really my forte so I was the most people need something to push him in and informant to push him in I used to go myself befriending people just go in the pub sit down have a cup of tea have a beer and start talking and that was definitely my forte I could talk to anybody anywhere anytime and it didn't matter how hard they were or who they were if they were if they were in there that we'd be friends there's alcohol make the job easier because people loosen up a bit and the kind of relaxed and it feels if you've got something in common in a pub no I would say the thing that makes it easier is making people laugh for me I was a comedian I was funny being the class clown king that class clown mentality burning your life set you up for an undercover job yeah without a doubt and nothing as well which people don't like to admit but I liked all the people I liked the villains there were some of them I'm telling you I liked them more than my personal friends I did I felt like Judas when I pulled the plug on them because I thought me and you outside of this world we could be proper mates we'd be like a team you know how is that because I think Donnie Brasco he befriended the guy and I think they were pals and I think he did feel a bit gutted that he had to pull the plug on it what's the longest job you've worked on where you've grew up on with someone two years that's a long time yeah how does that make you feel when you know do you know it made me feel the worst well two things made me feel bad the week before we pulled the plug on the job the guy says come and make me a drink we know we gotta talk and I go yeah what is he goes look he says you know I love you like a brother he says I want you to be godparent to my son I was like ah that'd be lovely but I thought no I knew I couldn't do it but it really hurt that he'd like me that much that he wanted to be a godparent to his son and then at the end of that job we got like commendations from Chief Constable's and that saying oh well done great job you know you done me a lot of good work there and then his wife rang in and she said oh I could just say I really like you and we would have been friends my husband wasn't a crook oh that's very nice when you go undercover for two years like what sort of how big an operation is that and why is it took so long to gather so much information well that particular job was in Essex and there was a massive problem with drugs and coke and they said we need something to go and deal with this and that what basically happens is the team we were running the job they might be doing it on an overt basis they might be gathering intelligence now and they'd request to deploy an undercover officer and then the undercover control centre would say well who do you want and you know what kind of person do you want and then they say well somebody can do this this this and this and I'd say they'd say well that's Rob that's Rob Street so on that one it was moving to a Councillor State get myself a flat live there work the estate basically basically be a resident and then start going to places where the drugs and guns were really prevalent and that's what I did so I started that and sort of 12 months in I didn't eat it out of my hand all of them were you buying geed and guns off them yeah yeah sniper rifles shotguns handguns cocaine large amounts of cocaine not for me but for everyone so you'd say Rob that's why your head is fucked to me it's sitting on an Essex sniffing your brains out shooting fucking bullets through the ceiling no wonder you love the job so much on that particular job right this guy goes he says come and meet me at the pub we've got some brilliant stand guns one of my mates who's another one was already there at the pub so I walk in and the pub's chocker were people and they're playing pool and they were like over here quick so I'll come in he goes right we've tested these on us we need to test them on you now so we started zapping each other with these stand guns in the pub and so one of them was so powerful it actually knocked me off my feet and the people in the pub were like these guys are nuts and that's how it was it was fun and another time the same guy and I loved the pieces John's name was he says I've got a gun for you I said alright he goes come down Tilby Docks so I drive down Tilby Docks to see him we go in and he says go in the container we can't let it be seen here so I go in the container in the container in the pitch black like that with the door shut next to me he opens the door and he goes BOOM let's off in the container fucking hell and I went what the fuck was that he goes nice isn't it nice stand I was like I could tell you now put me pants in nearly did and anyway I said when he opens the door the light comes on and he's fired a piece of marine ply down the other end and it had in it it had in the shot it wasn't a shotgun cartridge it was a shotgun cartridge with a ball bearing in it a full-sized ball bearing and it ricocheted around the container before it stopped I thought he could have killed both of us stupid bastard see what sort of like cloven did you change your hairstyle did you get rid of the ponytail did you grow a beard like did you change different characters I just changed names names and accents yeah and skills because I was a boat captain as well what about with the name calling and somebody did you ever get somebody to call your name and you just blank them and you forget who your name was I mean this is on the Vegas trip but we were infiltrating the gang of criminals who were important puff by Laurie from one part of the country and now I'm in Vegas go to watch a football match on the big screen walk out the door with me mate and this guy goes ow that's my name because I use a different name on every job never use the same name twice and I'll look around and he was the leader of another criminal gang there he goes what are you doing here so I come to watch the boxing it was the Lennie exclusive and the Haldiville fight he says come on me and the boys are going down the stratosphere to ride the hotel rather it's called the roller coaster on the roof and then we're going to go to the chicken ranch and fuck some whores he says you'll come in I said yeah I am as well so I go with me mate who's like that not very happy because he's not that confident we can see him off and we get in the taxi there's me my mate Paul the gang leader and he's underling in the front and another taxi with another four of them in it anyway the guy at the front is trying to get Paul's attention and he calls him a cunt Paul grabs him by the air from the back to into the back of the taxi and bites half his nose off like that spits in the foot well and throws him back in the front seat back in blood pissing everywhere he says get out the fucking car sends him out and then we still drive to the stratosphere to go on the roof and my mate is as wide as it goes he's going to be and we go up to the roof and most of them even I was thinking I don't really want to go on the roof of the stratosphere hotel but the guy's just bitten his mate's nose off but we went up there they got the top the guy at the top goes oh sorry guys it's too windy the ride's shut for now we're going to have a drink at the bar and come back and I said oh we can't wait Paul we've got to go he's giving me a kiss and a hug goes off me and my mate get back in the lift when we got back in the lift he was shaking like a shit in doggy walls have you got a when do you wear a wire or is that just movie stuff and I always have to every time yeah is that is that not a danger when you've got the wire on it is and it isn't it is because you've got it on but it isn't because if you think about it from a villain's point of view there isn't a bigger insult is there than me sent you where's your wire you've got to be a brave man to say that haven't you did anybody ever say that to you no not once do you think that's more stupidity from criminals to not being overprotective of saying let me strap you down I think you get two kinds of criminals those that are easy going don't really worry about they think they're un-catchable untouchable untouchable and then you get those who are absolutely paranoid and it's counterproductive paranoia yeah because you end up straightened down people who are not boss then you get it kicked in did you ever have anybody saying there's something off about you no that didn't go who's with me because there's shoes they said I don't let you make it's got cop shoes on ha ha ha you can't say sometimes I pay to fucking shoes bought a copper another one I say I always can but back in the day you always had the vibe because they're never happy they got the seriousness about their face and you could tell the way they worked everything was suspicious ha ha ha ha I've always been good at reading people always been good at listening sometimes you get it wrong because there's people who are good at their job and this and that but I would always be over paranoid and that could be a bad thing but also can be a fucking good thing because you're always on it sometimes you get it wrong you lose friendships you lose loved ones because you're paranoid maybe a bit extreme but you're better safe than sorry absolutely I agree with you 100% and I would be and I've got to say on a job one of the guys goes to one of my mates he says you know what he says you could be the reason Cromwell's got it and my mate goes yeah I am and it went deadly silent and then my mate burst out and I know the old left but he was ha ha ha ha ha and then it got next that's sick ha ha ha ha ha you're a bit ass which I didn't want I didn't want him but I wanted to please not get him so that we could play the tape with him so we could think you're the reason why he's got him going yes I am how has that if you ever came across anybody you've done since yeah no never no that's mad though isn't it yeah it is I nearly fell a foul once but they hadn't been done I was on the job in a part of the country like 100 a mile from home I walked to the courier out a mile from my house to get an Indian take away and in there was one of the guys from the operation under my house away who'd met a girl in a club in London and come down to see her I thought what are you doing here I thought what the fuck are you doing here but I was stood there thinking if Ali the owner of the restaurant comes out and goes hello Mr. So I'll be fucking dead see when you're undercover what sort of limits have you got to if somebody says look shoot this gun to practice or shooting targets or take this bat a gear or shag this hooker where's your limits for being a copper and to not blow your cover again when I was in it was different and there's been a lot of high profile cases of guys who've shagged a target something particularly the eco warrior guys where they're getting the girls pregnant and everything when I did my course in 1992 if you had sex with anybody on the job you charge a rape because she's not consent the sex with you she's consent to the sex with the person she thinks you are so it's effectively a deception on the woman so the rule of the day was you don't fuck them I'll never fuck anybody on any job ever what about snuff? nah well again that's another myth because at the top end of the food chain they don't they don't sniff you know we only dealt with the top end I wouldn't go in against a gram dealer they'd be sending me one out of a kilo two kilos of Charlie those guys don't sniff coke because they think it's fools paradise yeah they're making money they're making money from them it's a bit to them it's a business it's just a it's a it's a computer it's just a thing it's not an actual thing I want to play with and they take users as liabilities you know you're a liability because if you're using it you might get nicked and then you're going to tell somebody about me and it's a mess because I had no woods on he was undercover but he had to take a bit of speed and he was out he's fucking up but he was bottom end undercover not with his job but he was like buying cheap drugs well what there is is there's three levels of buying okay there's street level gram drug buying no training required eco warrior and football who infiltrations some training but not enough and they got basically basically got disbanded they footballed a lot of training because they couldn't write evidence because they were thick as shit yeah and then there's the level one undercover we had a criteria we had to that had to be sat still before they could even call us so it had to be multi kilos large amounts big jobs guns explosives that's kind of thing I was trained with explosives and everything what's the biggest job you've got on? 300 kilos of coke 300 kilos that was the biggest but I've smuggled people by boat for criminal syndicates I'm a boat captain as well so this is a story which makes me smile and it's relevant to what we've got to say right now the big thing at the moment is people smuggling isn't it? people smuggling across the channel and they're all on the telly all the government officials all the politicians everybody saying we've got to stop these evil people smuggling these gangs there's no gangs there's some patsies who get stuck in because they can earn a few quid the people sending the people across from France by the French government I'll know that by the fact I'll tell you for why because I was asked to by a Turkish group of guys who were bringing people in Bollori if I'd bring 20 illegals from Belgium for money I said yeah of course I'll do that for you so I went and hired a boat for a thousand pound a day and I went to Ramsgate to head across the channel when the time was right and throughout the process the European government were provaricating about whether we'd let this happen or not and they've been absolute twats and then day before I'm getting stressed from the criminals now you know get your ass over there they're waiting they're waiting there's 20 of them on the side on Belgium and the day before the bus rings he goes he says Rob, there's a problem he says they want you to give a full safety briefing when the illegals come on board and issue them with a department of trade standard life jacket each right now I was undercover 17 years no criminal syndicate gives the fuck whether you make it or not across that channel because you've had your money you've paid up front don't matter they will not be forking out on shiny new red life jackets for every boat person on that boat and that's what's happening now every person coming over this channel now on those boats is wearing a department of trade issued life jacket and that's a government stipulation that's not a people smuggling bit stipulation that's not a criminal stipulation criminals don't give a shit so when you talk about people smuggling trafficking human trafficking yeah yeah how bad does human trafficking in the UK again I never really got involved in it so I don't know but I was involved in smuggling people and drugs across the channel by boat and lorry and with the way it's being portrayed at the moment is not right those people are not being smuggled by criminal gangs they're being smuggled by governments so see when you're smuggling people over in the drugs is it one big shipment or have you got to keep the operation going to gather more information for criminals the big families and the people smuggling 300 key over like is that you got everything that you need there's more to the full story and gather all the evidence now Jim with an undercover officer being deployed you get the evidence as the drug progresses you don't just go for example I'd meet somebody and he'd say I want you to move some gear and I'd go yeah how do you want to do it and then he'd say how do I want to do it and I need to get this this this and this I need some money and they'd pay some upfront money and then somebody else might come along hire up the food chain to be happy to like you know to make sure they've been hunky-dory and then you'd go off and do it pick up wherever the commodity was whether it'd be three tonnes of puff 20 keys of heroin 50 keys of heroin bringing the keys to Charlie come back as soon as the people pick that gear up need when does entrapment come into play entrapment comes into play if they're not involved in that course there have to be you can't deploy an undercover and set a job up we don't do that in the UK we don't do any that kind of stuff where you like I've heard in America they set the gear up and everything and then bring the people into it we don't do that in us it's always got to be you've already got to be involved in the course of conduct before we can deploy an undercover so they've already got to have the operation and play they've got to have the operational intelligence to play yeah they can have a meeting and say well what's your evidence and where's your strategy so you couldn't go to someone and say I've got 100 kilos I'll smack their I can get you a good price no no this wouldn't happen and the problem with when people talk about corruption the big problem with corruption is for me is what's to stop me snitching on me when I'm corrupt and setting me up because the old bill do set me up on traps on undercover traps you know they try and catch bent old bill with undercover old bill so if you're undercover they'll put people undercover to try and trap you not an undercover officer but if they thought it was Ben yes if they go in from say for example this is a hypothetical situation Rob's undercover and he's working the lorry and he's bringing back Fruner Kiyachari but he's banging 10 kilos on top for himself they get me as well they put him to get me when you're undercover then like what's the hardest part being an undercover agent? Home life Sacrifice that goes Sacrifice, yeah I mean I've got two kids they didn't really know me for 18 years they knew I was their dad but I was away too much my youngest daughter I haven't spoke to for three years you know she's a lovely kid but we don't talk Do you see a bit of yourself in your own dad? No I don't because I did really try hard knowing how bad it was for me as a child I tried to bounce it off as much as I can it didn't always work but I did it I did it a lot of time like for example if I was in an operation and I wanted to go and I've fought a week away with Mrs. I'd just say to the villains I'm going to wait for a week Bye that's acceptable nobody's going to say why or no you're not so I try and bounce the whole life it's not easy but you can make it work How can you switch off from being a character for one person to then being a family man? How? because obviously this method acting is well in it like where your Daniel Day Lewis and your Jim Carries and he went I think it was Andy Hoffman he played but he stayed in full character and at King Daniel he lost on his job people are losing respect from him because he was just so ingrained in being that character when can you switch off from being an undercover copper working with criminals buzzing surrounded by mad guys which you loved part of you probably wanted to be that guy or was that guy as a young kid before you went to the Navy but to then kids at home misses how do you switch off can you ever switch off I think I did I say that you don't know a hundred percent but I think I did because I used to on the job where somebody identified me as a police officer and gave me my name I thought I can't stay London now I've got to move because there could be a bang on my door one morning it could all go tits up for my family so I moved down to the South Coast and I used to think when I passed the M25 going home I commuted for 15 years to the South Coast from London for work for peace of mind when I got the M25 I was like I'm home now that one and a half hour drive shut me off from work what was your lowest moment and the police force I don't think I really had any low moments I was to be honest we absolutely loved it it was a great job I think the police let me down but they let me down since I left not while I was in because when again this is another story in the book but I'll give you the briefest deals of it back in 2008 we went on to Turkey and we met a waiter and a Kurdish waiter in the restaurant and he says to us at the end of the season oh you know can I talk to you over email you know because you've been good customers well for the time you've been here blah blah blah so he took our email addresses he didn't email me he emailed my Mrs and he just started talking to her oh how's it going it's hot here blah blah blah this is happening that's happening talk about the bars and the restaurants and the people that we knew and over time he was in he was starting to chip chip chip chip chip away and then he'd say where's Robin oh he's at work oh he's always at work and then he started to plant seeds into her mind that she was getting a raw deal and probably she thought she was as well to be fair and then one day he says I go into the where our computer is at home and she shuts the screen down and I realize something's not right so when she goes to bed I'll log it back in again pull up the MSN screen and read the conversation and he's basically saying you know you should leave him he's not your type blah blah blah if you haven't read this Nope and if you haven't he's like hey let's go you know yeah Well it's a little bit annoying that year to Turkey and he said he said it she said she was coming and he said oh can you bring some money because I've got no money and she said yeah I'll try and get some yeah and that and then he said I really I'm in love with you worse this effect and she he said when we when you come can we have sex and I miss his kind of yeah and that was the terminal point of my relationship and the long the short is he continued that and he kept taking money she was giving him money literally and he treated it awfully which I'd never done but I thought was no way I'm gonna blow this affair open right now because my kids are doing their exams at school it's gonna be a world of trauma I've got world of work on my plate to deal with as well I don't want to have a fight with my Mrs. right now so I never told her let her carry on let her keep it going and but it was stressful reading like reams and reams of disgusting shit about me from him which he wasn't batting off it was awful so I started boxing I was a martial arts instructor and I've been I've got free black belts in three different styles of karate and I've been trained for 30 years and I can have a toro I can have a row I don't like it I don't like a fight but I can have one if needed need be and I started boxing I'd never boxed in my life I was 50 at this point I was due to retire in the year I was 14 hours to return here and I started boxing and I become really good really quick and I started getting taken to take part in shows around the UK white collar boxing shows and I'd go there and I have a fight and big massive crowds and then one day there was a fight on and there was a fight on and I went to the training session the week before with a boxing club and the training goes nobody's come in there's just you and two of us says what we'll do is we'll have a we'll have a sparring session with the pro boxers next door doing some shadow boxing and he marches in the training was right the rules are you're not I'd hit them but they'll I'd hit you but it's like perfect training you're getting away from people can't find me they're trying to go can fight so the first I'd goes in three residency no problem I go in there martial arts trained bangs my nose in the first 10 seconds he was a lovely lovely guy and I don't hold him any any hurt for this at all he hit me back eight times in a millisecond head body head body head body and I when I came out the when I hope actually like my head together my brain was shaking and I got out the ring after at least three rounds of what's what fucking that wasn't very nice I didn't like that made a laugh of it and then we went home that day and I had a headache from that day to the following Saturday but the following Saturday I was fighting a big show and all my family and friends and brothers had paid 60 pound a head to watch 60 of them so I'm outside went to come in for my fight and I've had seen the doctors and when we was now I'm absolutely fine but literally my head was banging weights outside guy comes in from the red corner to either Tiger Rocky starts giving all that jumping about then again there goes out the blue corner is Rob soul he's 50 he's our oldest fighter today cross starts booting back off bollocks load of crap and I then I came out to him I one foot in the grave Victor Meldrew I jumped in there but I was fit as fuck literally I jumped over the ring threw me top off I was fucking ripped and the compact goes fucking Elgents this is gonna be a fight and mean this guy the three round tear up and it was deemed a draw in the end he was 30 I was 50 and deemed a draw but afterwards you normally go lap dance in barbers can't go I'm really really poorly so I went home and lay down in bed on the Saturday night and woke up the following Thursday and my head was literally thumping so I went to QA hospital and they said you got a bleed on the brain and they treat me with some blood thinners and everything and sent me back home said it's rest you can't go and holiday on Friday where you're gonna go you've got to get sorted but then I went to complete depressive state I became completely depressed and I've dropped from 13 stone a solid muscle to 10 stone a skin and bone my head was spiked I couldn't think I couldn't drive my car I couldn't go anywhere I became a recluse I didn't leave home for two years I never left the house I grew a beard a stank everything stank my house stank I didn't I didn't eat proper food I was an absolute mental wreck the doctors came to see me put me on the facts in 1200 milligrams which is an anti-depressant didn't touch me tried to kill myself four or five times cut through my femoral artery with a knife so so painful when you start to slit your skin with a carbon knife I couldn't do it and now that might because I didn't want to either I didn't push out I could probably pass out if I didn't whether that was some inbuilt thing in me not to die but I just couldn't get to go through the whole way to the artery and and then the one day after about two years of not going out and not seeing anybody after says Rob if you can't kill yourself you have to get better and at the time I don't need an in-ground swimming pool at home in the back garden big quite a big one and it was gone green it was full of dead animals and in touch for two years it was rank emptied with a bucket over probably the course of seven days emptied with what with a bucket completely cleaned out the lining refilled water got it working again I felt absolutely elated so I went to see me doctor I said I'm feeling better at the time I was eating a bacon baguette and we're in a Superman onesie now we should have realized me weren't right there yeah you can ask me you know you're the police so anyway you said oh well keep taking the tablets and come back later so I went away but the tablets because I was on a what's that called that start in the main your phase of a depressive episode were making me high and I literally became a raving lunatic off the scale nuts violent looking for fights everywhere going out my car the Mazda MX 5 sports car roof down two o'clock in the morning doing 130 miles an hour in 30 minutes breaking then the discs were red with heat and pull in front of blokes cars with blokes and get out of the car I'll kill every motherfucking one of you no reason at all just because they've been there and eventually my daughter goes I think my dad's gone nuts and she reports you to to the local mental health team and they send a couple of people to see me by this time I've smashed all the bathroom tiles out in the bathroom I've smashed the bath out smashed the sink out I'm living on a mattress on the floor I bought thousands of pounds of a useless gear on credit cards because I didn't really need and a guy this guy is my hero because he saved my life he's named Skip Bauer I want to publicly name because he deserves every credit for it Asian guy you guys you know he said Mr. Sel we've come to talk to you about your mental health I says I tell you what you don't fuck off I'll knock both of you out now fuck off so he came back with a couple of cops I said look one of you sits foot towards the threshold from where you are now I said I'll beat the living fuck out of all of you now fuck off next minute full tactical team outside my house for arms everything and they smashed the house in Nick me took me to base and stoked so I kind of intense a care unit and and I was nuts and I'm not no no don't do that I was absolutely off the scale nuts nuts beyond that you could comprehend you could be nuts and but extremely violent as well which wasn't me I'm a timid guy I'm a mild guy really when it comes to fight and I can fight but I don't like to fight I'd rather say hi how you doing have a point and but I got lucky in there and in there was a was a guy who just spoke with a rest the phone accent and he said hop on back to him he was white and he was charming blood routed bumper club and also so I was thinking mate you're getting around my tits and one night the the woman who was in charge of the ward at night she goes um he says to me oh you bitch get me a cup of tea so I went fuck that I think lean cross over I said who you talking to your piece of shit it took is out slapped him around give my right back and slap around the face and he fell off the chair on the floor she pressed your arm the riot squad turned up I turned them over the three of them and then I went to the kitchen out of carbon knife and extinguished I said anybody comes down with a fucking kill you next year's full tactical firearms team dogs everything at the hospital eventually tasing me with two tasers and carted me off to Thornford Park in Newbury which is a priori run hospital but uses an over spill from Broadmoor and I spent three weeks in the pad itself being injected daily by and they wouldn't let them have me so that they get eight men with shields that to beat me and then they'd spin me over jab me up the arse leaving me there for another three days and I just stayed there and eventually the drugs calmed me down brought me back down to a reasonable level again and then while I was in there in the in the pad itself I was allowed out for exercising the yard on my own and the window to the next ward which is basically a prison it's not a hospital it was full of insane criminals one of them was from the burger bar have you ever heard of the burger bar boys in Birmingham one of them was from that gang he said oh yeah it was here it was two it was where the where the Bucklebury gang there's there's twelve of us two two black ten white you know it's it's mean in here mate it's fucking mean so when they came to me when I was feeling a bit better and the doctor goes oh we're going to put you on the Bucklebury ward I said are you fucking serious I said you're going to put an X cop on the Bucklebury ward with 12 insane criminals he goes what's the problem with that I said mate you're not real I said there's only going to be one outcome I've they're going to kill me or I'm going to kill them which one do you want so he said you need more time seclusion but look for another week so anyway eventually they they put me on the ward and I spent a week on the ward I spent a week on the last three months on the ward but I decided what I was saying enough to these to bring in a persona non military non non non police persona that said I was ex-navi I've had a dramatic divorce blah blah blah and I'm a boxer but while I was in there the the most important part of the story for me is firstly there's no care in there whatsoever there is no care at all in in any of their mental hospitals contrary to what they let me think secondly the drugs are dished out and they swapped literally on you know people with taking back in drugs for schizophrenia given to people who've got trouble for you know this is just mental nobody takes their tablets they sell them for fags and sweets swap them and when I was in there I met a guy called Julian and but I got really palliative he was 65 I was 50 I said what's your story Julian he goes well he says when I was 13 he says I got took into care me and my mum couldn't come with the kids I was okay he says and we got sent to care and as a protest he said I set fire to the curtains of the care home he said I got three years in borsal asking with intent to endanger life he said in there he said I was 13 pretty he said I got raped every day by the bigger lads he said the only way I could stop the rapes was to make a homemade knife and stab them but instead of them getting done for raping me I got done for GBH in them he said so I got more bird he said I ended up on Parkhurst on the Isle of Wight with Ronnie Cray Ronnie Cray says Julian you're a very pretty man and for the duration of your sentencing you'll be my wife he says and he beat the fuck out of me and raped me every day literally beat me to a pulp and raped me every single day violent sex was his thing he says and then one day a girl comes on the wing he says he's a nonce paedophile he says you're gonna kill him and Julian says when when Ronnie Cray gives an order to another inmate it's not a request it's an order he said so I cut the bloke's throat with a knife but he didn't die he says oh but I got lifed off criminally insane without parole he says I'm 65 and I've been inside 52 years I cried I literally burst into tears now I can't tell you if that's a true story on odd because people made up stories about why they were there because they didn't want the truth to be coming out plus the psychotic plus the psychotic as well so I can't say that's a hundred percent a factual story but when he told me he said it with all sincerity and I looked at him I was just got fucking on me 52 years and you've not seen daylight and when he said he said Rob if they said to me tomorrow off you go he said I don't think I could he said I've never seen a plane fly I've never seen anything he said my life's been unstandstill for all those years and all I've been is abused all my life he said what will I be like outside what kind of man will I be I don't know Veronica he was an aunt he was a he was a horrible bastard he was when he got jailed he was in bed with a 14-year-old or a 13-year-old boy that he was these people shouldn't be glorified plus not all for gangsters and maybe involved in that life but to harm kids you're a fucking you're a you're a wronging he was a proper wronging yeah and I don't get why they say you can rehabilitate somebody that's like saying I can rehabilitate me and you to prefer men to women it just can't be done whatever you prefer you prefer you can't say to somebody now from tomorrow you want fancy kids you're gonna fancy women again it's not gonna happen I've never never wouldn't dream of fancy in a kid so were you telling your story in all the trauma that you've been through like I say the brain stores everything do you think because all this shit you went through you've you've had it well you've became a karate expert you've been under cover you could play different characters you've had all the trauma your whole fucking life but then obviously your missus having an affair do you think that was the trigger of releasing every single bit of it I definitely had to look to it it was definitely stressful that time of my life yeah and why I don't I don't regret having the affair and when we started here but why did me a massive favor yeah but what I'm seeing is when you're telling me that story why did you not treat it as a husband instead of an undercover cop because you went and feel investigation of what she was doing why not jump on it straight away because it's like you are working on a job instead of being a husband and saying listen you're a fucking slag you've been caught yeah fuck off why did you put yourself through that pain and torment of looking at those messages being called this and that hurrah green asex like what was going through your method of thinking because for me it's like you went full undercover instead of being a husband I would say I definitely did use that skill at that time but the reason behind it was calculated was because I knew I was due to retire in one year I knew that this relationship wasn't going to go away if I confronted it at that time it wasn't going to go anywhere so I decided that I would stay the way I was negotiate a deal that was good for both of us but not not mullering me and my kids and and do that and what I did I did to protect the future of my kids yeah but that's torment and misery and pain and it's you've lost at the end of it with putting yourself in the mental ward then oh yeah yeah but I mean I've never been never anticipated that yeah of course so when you've ended up staying in yourself becoming a recluse for two years did she go to turkey no no because before that happened when we got divorced on the 10th the first of October 2010 on the first of 2000 2010 first of all I was in turkey front him up what happened well so you've went and seen the guy who was trying to have an affair with yeah yeah yeah basically he worked at a bar and I walked in he was with another woman holding her hand he let go of that and jumped him up when he saw me and I said right I said all I'm going to say to me I said you can stay there love I said all I'm going to say to you is your relationship with my wife is over you get where I'm coming from your relationship with my wife is over you will not be getting another fucking penny because you've given quite a bit of money and the woman who was with him slapped him and said you save him bastard he's not taking money off her as well anyway I said who's the owner of this bar he said he's out there I said which one he said the guy there so point there's five guys outside all thick set leather jackets and I knew they were crooks just by their appearance I mean I said excuse me I knew the only goes yeah I said can I have a word in private he goes yeah of course again what is it I said I said I'm talking front of your friends I said see that guy over there you see where you are that's my nephew I was that guy there has been stealing money off me through my wife for the last two years I says it stops today I need sorting today now I'd like you to sort it but if not I'll sort it I said but I prefer you to sort it because you're you're your skin so he pulled him over he gave him a massive backhanded slap he says get two I bought the jd in two glasses for me and Rob and I went and sat down and he says you speak this fucking man's wife ever again he said I'll send you him in a fucking box he said you're my nephew you're a disgraceful cunt and I sat with him and drank with him for an hour he gave me his mobile and he says I can tell you now he says he says I'm the head of the Kurdish mafia in this town he said if you were to come in here fists flowing god working he said you'd be fucking dead now he says all of my men out there armed with guns he said and they'd have shot you dead he said but you came in like a real man you came in talking not making the scene not showing me up he says because of that I respect you he says and you'll never come to harm in my town if ever you need any help anywhere here there's my number for me how much did you miss he sent him thousands why was she so gullible to her I'd love to ask her the question to be honest I just don't get she sent him thousands literally and on one occasion on one of the messages he he said bring five thousand on Monday or I'll beat you like a dog again again you beat her like a dog again I'll never beat her once ever never even to shout at her properly and she's seven years younger than me so she would have been 43 how old was he 30 what do you think that was you think that was lack of listen she's in the wrong but you think how much does your lack of affection come into play because you says at the start that you shut off your emotions before the shit that you've been through do you think you were missing something from you can't have a listen some of the cheats are wrong and all fucking aspects but for your own perspective in your life and choosing the police over family even though you didn't want to because everything you probably did was for your family I don't know but how would you think was missing do you think for her to crave that from some young kid talking shit who's plain plain for anybody to see that they're obviously manipulating people who are getting the bar and seeing targets but what do you think was missing in your relationship for that to then go like that I don't know but I will say this and I think this is quite common generally amongst married men with kids I don't know a single married man married man over 40 with kids who has sex with his wife not one not one now I don't know why that is I don't know because the kids have come along and it's just we're done we've got the kids we don't need the sex anymore but to me the sex is what binds you together as a couple bond it's the bond it's the love it's the real love and when she was writing to him online and he she said oh when I get there I'm going to suck your cock and lick your balls and all up and I was thinking we used to do that I thought what went wrong and it reminds me of a joke I heard once and it said how do you stop your girlfriend from giving you a blowjob Mariah how do you stop your girlfriend from giving you blowjob Mariah I don't know how the fuck you control that I don't know how you control that I genuinely don't know a lot of men would fucking kill their wife if I'm honest that is the ultimate level of disrespect men crave respect women crave attention but for you to then look at that there's must be something wrong with you up here as well oh yes for sure for you to go through that and I'm not being and I respect you to high degree with your honesty but I've got to be honest there's something tapped yeah for you to be accepting that yeah and and I agree with you totally I think there's a coldness in me from all my years of abuse as a child that perhaps I never fully allow anybody into me into my close you know into into here yeah I'm with a with a girl now and I've dedicated the book to her name's Jane her husband died at 52 of cancer and and she's the best woman I've ever met she's the only woman who I've ever thought you're you're what I wanted in a woman from day one from the minute I was a child what I want in a woman you are it you're everything I want in a woman and I was I've got a thing where I say there's three types of people in the world givers takers and pitstakers and everybody fits somewhere in there and she's a giver an armor giver I like to give love give cuddles crime when it's crying time play with the kids run wrecking idiot being idiot but and but there's also a dark side of my personality as well I know for a fact when they were when they recruited me to do to do the suicide bombing killing they knew I could kill they knew that I'd walk up to somebody put two bullets in the back of the brain so I'm not really happy and not sweat and not worry about it and go and have a cup of tea and that's why they recruited me for that I was recruited for suicide bombing killings back in the late 80s well basically remember john charles the men is is yeah do you know the story no basically john charles on the news though oh john charles was on the news massively but what basically am was and this is what I don't this is why I don't go with conspiracy theories and all those things that people say about about what's going on in the world now because for me if I was in the prime minister of a country and a guy flew in from the lebanon hell bent on going to work with a suicide vest what would you do your news coming you knew he's going to wear a vest you know he's going to blow people up on the tube and what would you do kill him before he gets over you you break into his flat where you know he's living you've got his address he's in there you've got the place bug you send the ss in a freedom one slot in with a psalon sir cut him into the fish that's what I do if I was the prime minister but we don't because we're civilized we're a civilized society so what we do is we leave him there and we set the job on him a surveillance job and we have an observation point outside the block of flats where he lives in south london and the guy comes out and the man who's in the with eyes on with the binoculars goes yeah target number one's out the address and he's left left left now as it happens john charles the ministers was a pretty good look alike for the terrorists from the lebanon or algea wherever he came from he was a good look alike and the guy in the observation point got it wrong end of but from that point forward john charles mays starts walking with a rucksack down towards the tube station command structure if he goes near the tube or the bus kill him that that order is given by the by gold command that's it it's done deal what happens john charles mays he goes to the tube station he doesn't pay for a ticket he jumps the barrier so that's run down the steps the two guys behind him what i used to do my job not me though them run down after him gets on the tube one gets behind him two bullets to the brainstem wrong man heartbreaking for john charles mays's family i agree heartbreaking but should have been dealt with last week when the guy arrived trying to fight terrorism within the legal framework is like buying a chocolate fire guard what happened when they killed their own game well it was a big inquiry that they were they were suspended from duty you know there was talk of charging them with murder it was a fucking box there's a guy there's a policeman waiting to stand trial for murder now did you know that no for shooting somebody now for me i was i came to farm for work and i have a simple attitude around that james but whether you believe whether you like it or not i don't really care if i'm carrying a gun and i'm pointing at you do as you're fucking told that's it because i'm going home tonight and if you move one finger you're getting it and i don't mean that in horrible way i mean the difference between life and death for an hour man is that that's how long it takes to kill somebody and you haven't got time for that and when you when you're in a farm situation it's mad it's fucking mentally it's exhausting your tunnel vision the sirens are going there's noise there's people screaming i'm please i'm please all that shit that anybody who says they can have a casual thought about that it's taking the piss there's no casual thoughts going on in anybody's head you're reacting to a very very awful situation and if a police officer shoots somebody it's not deliberate nobody gets that gun in the holster goes on and goes today i'm going to kill some fucker they just don't because we're not made like that humans aren't made like that obviously when some people break into people's houses as well and the house owners kick fuck out them i beat them or bat i stab them i've seen them go to prison yeah it's mental why is that it's wrong what's it so what is the self-defense law in the uk well you defend yourself to a reasonable amount what's reasonable what's reasonable to me and what's really might be two different things yeah and it would be wouldn't it because you all deal with things based on your own perception of life experiences and florida after you step forward to someone if they've warned you and in florida you step forward they can shoot you they'll lose a different yeah and all friends will carry guns and they've got to forget what the law is called but if anybody if they pull a gun out and say look don't come any closer on the sun if they go as close as a ninja they can shoot them yeah for me the big problem with what i say is we're all spineless we all want to see the you know people mulled whether it be politicians celebrities place you want to see them mulled you're not happy with them just getting told off well you're not really being being dealt with properly you're what you want their fruit all the time and um it's going to be this country's going down the toilet million percent even with the tax and stuff as well yeah and how did the corrupt government and everybody on lockdown and they're all partying at christmas as well i don't forget that shit people couldn't see their loved ones and babies and and they're all partying christmas whether they do you know what that was i wrote to boris johnson then i said boris stop talking on the tv because you're lying i said i can see your lips moving you and my man cock i said you're both liars you don't believe it you don't believe that this is dangerous as this there's a science that's saying just say that you don't believe it leave the country out of lockdown let you know i'm not saying there wasn't a pandemic i'm not a denier i'm fully triple jabbed but it wasn't it wasn't the day it wasn't the millions of deaths that was predicted it never was going to be it never was you know me and me and jane we're fucking ignored it all but is that not scared you how fast the world can get to lockdown yeah i think that was a dummy run for what's to come in the future well again i've made up one of my mates is big into all that and um and i've i've laughed because for the reasons i've said like you know i i don't think that we're that coordinated there's a group anybody and the problem with with the conspiracy my brother's a builder he goes to new york he said i've been the trade tellers it was definitely a knockdown by the americans with explosives because he knows his structure i says all right i saw what james i says let's have a chat i says i'm gonna organize and knocking down the twin towers i'm american i go to my mate james james did i see knocking down the twin towers and killing 30 000 people what i do when james says no what i do i've got to kill james what about when the next person says no i've got to kill that guy as well so when you're going to do something you everything everything everything every every venture of any nature whether it be criminal or anything needs cooperation from a group of people and that's why a lot of people in jail because they talk to the one person who they shouldn't and they all force you to i'm not saying they didn't know that was coming between towers i think every bit of intelligence i think for that to be is extreme it is a possibility but then you look at iraq as well weapons of mass destruction yeah there was no weapons lies total lies there the media can't betray whatever they want and people believe what they see people believe what they read people believe what's out there so your wife anybody people can be manipulated easily with certain words you've done it your whole life yeah at undercover you've manipulated everybody that's come into your life to a certain degree yeah so it's fucking easy done yeah and as human beings we are quite thick as well yeah because everybody does stay in a bubble where they don't ask the questions yeah i like to sit back and go listen i'm not a scientist or a doctor whether the earth is round the flat i don't give a fuck the twin towers or whatever i genuinely don't know the only thing is it questions me is why would they do it what's the bigger purpose is it money is it greed is it just sick individuals who've got so much that they just want to destroy other people's lives with vaccines or flues or whatever pandemics they've created every every so often there's a new war yeah every so often yeah there's a new plague or there's a new destruction of the planet the patterns are there to see that okay something might be a mess but for me i concentrate on me my life yes what boris johnson says or what everybody says i don't give two fucks they don't control me yes they can have a saying you're schooling you're upbringing system that you're in life is a system it's the same system so i just like to question and try and have as much fun with it as possible i don't have all the answers i'm not a fucking guru i'm not a conspiracy phase because i just question everything because i don't know i can read watch a couple of videos read a couple of books and go ah that's interesting human beings just go towards what makes them feel comfortable but it doesn't make them right either no no you've got a question what do you think of the system in the UK the system that we have of what everything schooling i think it's all bent well that's my view on the police is the police are lazy they need to make it not a job for life they're made to need to review them every year and if they're not going to get the fuck out of them can come out i did 25 years in the police not one person was sacked for not performing that's got me bollocks every other job i've ever seen speaking up making your targets you're gone sorry mate you didn't sell 10 hours as you're gone sorry mate you didn't do this you're gone this is only the public sector you can be fucking bone hard and survive can't be right that's why the bills are that's where the initials are spread NHS yes some of them work out most of them don't fact i don't care what they say i've seen qa the casual department 25 am is stacked up but year before the pandemic yes we need when the NHS needs sort the police needs sort and they need to get rid of all the deadwood they need to get people motivate they need to start thinking about for example in the police the most important thing is budget control and not a complaint what it should be is catch those fucking criminals who are causing society the most damage and if you get a few complaints so be it budget well everyone has to have a budget but let's use the money wisely you know drugs forget drugs legalize them it won't cause one more person to use it than use it now all my mates use coke they're all charlie heads all right why do they use it because they can and they like it why do i have a drink a lager because i can and i like it we're in columbia a kilo of cocaine how much 500 it's 1500 now 1500 in the uk yeah 30 40 grand 35 to 30 to 35 000 right cut down to pieces i'm not in a game anyway i don't know if you're undercover you could be just a plant i said go and ask him questions just let's see what his actual who's doing this interview i don't know the price of your school supplies i slept in the old character there you're giving your fucking job so anyway what we're saying is cocaine 32 to 35 000 a kilo cut to shreds as it is in the uk 200 000 pound big profit massive profit now cocaine the average street series of cocaine 11 to 20 pure 20% gear 80% novocaine or baby's milk for master or some other powder mix nothing no cocaine effect whatsoever no no no high no fuck all so i bought cocaine for 17 years and only three people sold it at the beauty that they arrived at only three every loss cut to the shreds so people are getting high on the thought of it and a bit of it yeah they're not getting high on the 75 percent hit or even though they think they are everyone says it's the greatest gear in the world but it ain't his shite no it's push it's piss yeah so the only thing the only drug i'm dead against is heron because heron is a positive a hundred percent a killer kills bodies kills heads kills everything but coke all the other drugs recreation faint and all that's a big yeah this but do you not see this well we're the government is saying you can't have that but the prescription drugs are equally damaging yeah which you can have i think there's a human mindset i feel as if everybody should be in a normal state which is natural in life which is exercise cold water eating the best at foods but we're living in a state where people are lost people are confused everything you take externally it takes you away from a conscience free my mind doesn't escape so the only ones listen i've tried all drugs i'm drinking drug free now for many years but the only ones i think mdma has a lot of benefits to the mindset i believe yeah weed listen it's started at present but it's probably better than most yeah um alcohol if you can fucking maintain it to us a couple but we don't because we're greedy all over the world and it's the feeling of taking away your pain it takes us away that's why listen i don't drink because it takes me to coca and it takes me to lie and steal anger violence i didn't like because sometimes i'll be a good guy on it and sometimes i'd be an evil and angry and yeah and i didn't like it had power over me in control of how i felt how i think and i just believe there's everything grown from earth there's many because heroin and cocaine is a plant it's just obviously how it's manipulated to then how people make the same feel same as but when you think of the you know the anger and angst it causes the the movement of it you know the shootings the stabbing the violence if it's in the chemist wouldn't matter would it but that's why they don't want to legalize it though because then the police force would numbers would be off they wouldn't be court cases they wouldn't be prison systems there's 40 grand 50 grand per a mate and every prison it's a money making scheme it's billion dollar industry it's a trillion dollar industry and uh yeah it's hard to if you take away drugs then there's no violence take away alcohol there's no violence because people sit to get drunk they get full ideas and then they cause trouble you never see people fighting really sober now unless they've got a good set of balls and you know keakin handle himself like i haven't interviewed enough people to know who's gem who's and who's full of shit i got a lot of gangsters on i know they're full of shit um i'm not fucking daft but it's just there's so many ways to make the world a better place but i feel as if we're so far the other end of the spectrum that i don't know if i'll ever see it in my life team with those big changes i can't see just point it back and that's why i've i've sort of adopted the lifestyle but it's and i don't mean this in a selfish way i mean because i'm it's about me and the people around me you know my wife my girlfriend we're not married but my kids my kids are massively important to me how many kids have you got two girls but i said one of them has spent me for three years but that's because her husband came over she married a guy from turkey he comes over i let him live in my house i give him a job and he fucking shits on me what the fuck is it with you in turkey oh why the fuck you're still going to turkey everything you've went there you've had issues because recently i've gone back no no no no i've cut my steps on in a fucking i'm asking you to fucking get a grip especially because it's like i'm going back for more pain don't you take me a fucking girl friend if i don't mean she's a bit lousy don't you be sitting on a podcast next year you start a fucking broad more lost the fuck girl that you've loved in your life yeah but i always the thing is you can't control your kids falling over that's the problem isn't it of course she didn't go there with me to meet him she met there on her own holiday met him she's and you know it's like you know i met a guy what she like well oh he's dancing on the bar yeah he's a fucking stripper oh oh he's dancing on the bar and as he got house no he's not nothing nothing at all no house no car no money no fuck all oh that's a good start but you love him i'll support that and that's the way i am you love him i'll support that but he's turned out to be an absolute ass and he treats her worse than any white man ever would have any other man family's everything for me yeah and i get kids to different women and it is a pain in the ass if i'm honest kids are getting to that age now they're really what they spend much time with their mums and dads and they feel as if they know everything and i was the same at that age i was a smart ass yeah so i get it but everything i do is for a better life for my family and kids but there's a lot of disagreements and people say oh i love my family and i'm happiest with my family family are hard work yes because it's the worry and i'm a worrier as well and i know how the world operates yeah a lot of people are stuck in a little bubble 95 and don't really see the destruction yeah i've interviewed a lot of people abuse that kids raped and fucking and it breaks your heart like my daughter i don't have it let i have a sleepovers and she fucking hates me for it but i don't know who's in that household exactly it might not be the mum and dad it could be the brother it could be the uncle coming in the creepy cunt yeah i don't know sorry i said cunt and i promised yeah i promised my good friend Katie that's not serious i'm sorry Katie um that's that says it twice as well yeah listen to um but yeah life is life but see when you were in the loony band seen you're in the wake by these sales how many visitors did you have none do you know as well that and that's i'm glad you raised the point because i did send i you i was access to a phone when i was in the loony bin i rang the serious organized crime major who i worked for at the time when i left who should have looked after me i said look i'm in a loony bin surrounded by insane criminals please move me to a military hospital i'm gonna get killed i'm gonna die not a peep and they actually banned everyone from coming near me and i thought i've given you the best years of my life you cunts and all you've done is put your head in the sand and turn the other way when i'm in trouble and i've been up in the 17 years probably 10 to 20 life threatening situations where i could have died for the job and not one person was allowed to come and see me not one how much does that make you then question that you're unused oh i was but to be fair i always knew that anyway yeah you know i was i knew from the military that we were here for a purpose get up on and i've always made myself the best life i can for me what i want with the money i've got and the people around me and i mix with the people i like and i don't mix the people i can't be asked with i've got a real problem with liars i can't stand liars and that's why my daughter's husband's i've got problem because he just lies 24 seven to everybody he meets i just can't do that because i i like i don't mind the thief the thief he needs it he might be what he wants it a liar he's just spying this he's a spying this man when was the moment for you rob that you knew your life was fucked when was when was the when was the penny dropped because if you're filled with all the shit they're injecting you with and all the pain you lost your misses when was that moment because you're a strong guy you've let you see what you've come through in life and what you've overcome to be successful takes massive balls as well but when did you know you were at your lowest and okay you were you were you needed help well at the lowest is when i was under appeal hearing to get out to get out right i appealed to get out because that's obviously over three months i became quite sane again i've got my ability to talk again i had to communicate but the ward was violent and dangerous and i knew when i appealed if i don't get this appeal i'm not gonna survive i can't do another year of this you know a year living a lie again because they all thought i was in the navy in a boxer you know what i mean so eventually it was the ward has goaded me about it letting them know i was a cop to keep me in line you know i mean and they baited me on it the people in the in the ward and i thought i'm not going to live another year and that's why i've mentioned skip by by name because i said to skip about my address when he when the raid went on fuck off you or i'll kill you right and he went when they had the appeal hearing back at them thought about me to leave they fought tooth and nail to keep me they said i was still insane i was still capable of extreme violence blah blah blah regurgitate the ship from when i from when i came in how i was and the judge on the appeal hearing he goes well he said we're having real difficulty here um is mr bar where here and and skip i was there because if i was going to be released we'd be into his care he said mr bar we said we're having difficulty here mr cells not presenting as a maniac or a lunatic if you saw him now in your town would you section him and skip by well if you don't mean a spiteful man bearing him on what i said to him if you did said oh we definitely would that would be me gone for years and dead that would be me that brown bread 100% but he stood at me went no sir i wouldn't and i couldn't he's perfectly normal now and bearing in mind he's an amt whatever they call them the mental people and they've had two consultants i can't understand i'm nuts he says no they said thank you very much mr cell you're free to go that was a moment in my life i'll never forget i cried i hugged him i ran back the world got me cased back and ran out literally he saved my life i'll never forget that man as long as i live and what was that feeling then from coming back into normality where you've not get your wife anymore i don't know if you were through divorce or all the way through it now i'll finish it so what was that feeling then starting from scratch again to figure out who you were and what you were about everything yeah break total rebuild in my life i was i was an absolute wreck for the first 12 months not not not a not a mental wreck but an emotional wreck what do you think that is then do you think that like i said earlier was you think that was just the head of it all just everything that you went through as a kid just everything your whole life the lies the stealing the abuse the things that you've seen try to do right in life um not saying from you but from other people you're surrounded with on edge because the central nervous system is a powerful thing no matter how game we think we are we can shut it off we can't because i've seen some of the strongest men on this planet some serious killers break because it's not here's not normal we're not brought on this planet to harm people and lie and steal and cheat and everything that we do but we do because it's fucking here in front of us we're living in a weird society i genuinely don't know what the world is i think we're in a computer game i feel as if this is like a like an avatar like like a the matrix yeah that's what was it i've said you knew him andrew tie i've had them on twice andrew and i just i don't it feels like an avatar it feels like we're in a game and then you've got met a version even in another game i feel as if there's different levels to it to get to the real source which i don't know could be i believe it might be a beautiful thing i've been around people when they've took their last breath and um when they take their last breath it's not a last breath of pain or misery it's a last breath of yeah it's a fucking release yeah it's like a relief you know the way like this is a mad experience in here know how you go in computer games and you can pick your own avatar and the way you want to dress them and their jobs i think this is it man i just that's my own opinion from it can i just say i'd pick something better than me i love an ndr right but it's just it's just i don't know what it is but how did you then work on yourself to make sure you never get sent back i am i don't think i physically worked on it i think it just um i think it just came i think i just it was a gradual growing process were you scared that you went nuts again oh absolutely after that see when you lost and i have got i have got that in me i know yeah because i done a homeless documentary slept on the street for seven days and after four days i thought i'm a homeless i questioned my own mind went because i wasn't really sleeping much so i was sleep deprived because you only sleep like 20 minutes a half an hour because you're hearing noises and you're scared i was getting fucking stabbed i was too strong and big enemy to be raped or abused but i know people get spat on shat on peed on and people get stabbed so i was always on guard but after four days i thought i'm i'm losing my shit here i started to think have i get family because i've not got a phone i've no money like i'm i just can i'm a psychotic because i'd get like yeah i had dementia but then i get pictures and i can't be an m but and that was only for seven days on the streets but i started to kind of lose my bearings about not every time but i was that question and my own sanity see when you lost your shit did you know that you were losing it or did you just feel normal oh no when i i knew i didn't notice when i went when i gone the phone money but i did people saying well are you on a coke at the start when i was starting the main phase of the you're on the gear mate yeah you're like a hot cat on a hot tune roof am i yeah i am like sure yeah you know and i like threatened to lamp a few people in the pub for looking at me the wrong way which has never been me i've never been a an argument if so did you ever question though that could have been you and the other guy was on that yeah yeah you don't know do you not mean and even now before this happened i'd i would say were the longest fuse in history of the world now i'm an inch maximum literally it's taking lying i'm off the scale mad quick and i and i have to button myself back in again i have to why my neck in you know because i just think if i if it was the wrong person in front of me i when i when i when i felt like that i'd be going to jail what was it like try to take your own life awful but also weird because i thought well this is the end if i can manage to cut through my femoral artery i'm definitely gonna die and and the end of the torment i've had for two years will be gone and then i thought well what about your kids what would they say if they come in when they find you lying in bed in the polar blur or that wouldn't be very nice and like all them thoughts were around you and you're yes no yes no yes no and i think it takes a great deal of balls to actually go through the full act of suicide i don't think so i don't it's a cow's way i think it's a so balls are still finished yeah i'm the same like i believe everybody talks about mental health now and people struggling this and that i feel as if we can talk about it too much because it's still at an all-time high i've not the worst that's ever been um but i feel with mental health and suicide being vulnerable and sometimes fragile or weak or whatever people want to call it when they're not doing anything about it they just vegetating faster and um because a lot of people turn to drinking drugs and other stuff and that's the wrong thing because it'll make it a hundred times worse but like you say taking your life is the most bravest thing on the planet because that takes massive balls to know that you're never going to come back and once you don't once you do that there's no going back through your life there's no trying to rectify where it is you're struggling with and and that's the scary thing because everybody's got so much to give and if they could only just believe it just for that second to realize well wait a minute my life's not over i've got something to fucking give because people think it's over because our relationship i lost our job with a few grand a debt yeah fuck that there's fucking four million birds on the planet there's money being made anywhere listen you're at the bottom tier you're at the bottom you've not got fuck all but the only way is up yeah get your fucking ass to the gym i don't care if your fat as fuck skinny whatever it is just go exercise go on the stern master or walk around the park or whatever it is just try and get yourself out in nature yeah cut away the drink cut away the drugs fucking switch off your tv and my all means put down your phone because fuck me the social media side of things and people living in a fake world and electronical likes controls are there how many likes to get on my loved them are not on my hated fuck all that put down your phone get out in nature and then start realizing okay i can change get a piece of paper and write down your gold right yeah and things that you want to achieve that you want to stop and once it becomes clearer in your mind it's more likely to happen so like you say it is a brave thing to take your own life but at the end of the day we say it's okay it's okay not to be what is it what do they say it's okay not to be okay or yeah they do yeah so can it be okay yeah but it's not okay to live there can't live there we can't go okay it's okay listen be misery and pain for years and years no fucking do something about it fight back because everybody's got that understanding fewer lows to the lowest suicide or padded cell thought you never got out of it you're sitting here you're out of a book out yeah people can change yeah and that was one this i've written in the book there i said if if you're having a shit life blame yourself yeah i said you're not responsible what happens in your life but you are responsible how you deal with what happens well in person and you can take it one way or the other upwards or downwards that's a choice you personally make by your lack or willingness to act different what's your biggest life lesson that you've learned um biggest life lesson i think i think if biggest mistake i've made in my life biggest mistake was for my daughter because she was me in a skirt and still is me in a skirt she's my personality in a skirt she was going to join the police she had so much that i wanted us to do but we've fallen out and it's it's heartbreaking i absolutely miss her yeah if your daughter watches us by any chance what would you say to her i say ele we're a long time dead i think we should talk if it's not right for you where you are it's nothing to do with me if he's the right man fine if he's not fine i'd love to see you again soon yeah that's what it's all about and that because everything that we go through because we can go again it's that thing out we would block it out we go day by day and we think oh because it's always at the back yard mind i'm the same with my son there's always back and forth and i think oh fuck this it's just too much but it's still my son yeah if he calls me and now i'm there he's in trouble i'm there would he need i would die for my son yeah i would go to prison for my kids i would fucking i would kill for them that's not just to try and be a big man i just know what i've got to then go listen i don't mind i'd rather sit in a prison cell knowing that my kids are protected because every father should be protecting their kids you don't want to go down that route by all means never because we know how the destruction it causes but yeah it's your family and if they need to yeah everything it's scary because we do and i was a fuck up for years so i've only got myself to blame as well and to grow that bond at the start it's so important so try to clock back and clock back the missed opportunities and the missed years and the missed days and missing that it can be difficult for a father but you just got to stand your ground and just i would always be there for my kids no matter what families everything for me but listen like i say they're paying the nurses it's not difficult fights and arguments you think fuck off i'm never speaking to them again i'm like i'm the same i'm the same man she's i want it all when all my family's there i want to just go home and insert myself so i see all this shit it's like a contradiction i want all my family i do everything for them but when i'm with them i think these are all doing my fucking yeah i think my just talking shit and arguing and bickering and i'm thinking it's just stressful but these are the times that you wouldn't change because when i shot fucking you like you say we're a long time dead and i read something there that if people only see their parents once or twice a year and if they've only got maybe 10 to 20 a year left on this planet you're only going to see them another 10 or 20 times yeah and that fucking hit me man yeah hit me yeah um because i don't know why we're on this planet i believe there's a good source and people can be good there's so much listen you've seen a lot of bad in your life there's a lot of good goes on this absolutely look at people doing a homeless work and people in hospitals and nurses wiping asses and doing that sort of stuff and the people who just good souls who maybe i don't know whether they've been through trauma or not but they just want to help people they're good people they would never do a bad turn they would never steal but there is a lot of goodness look at the nature look at the mountains look at the sky the sun the moon the sea yeah there's so much beauty in the world but we just concentrate on the negatives i don't know if that's why the media berm barge went for years and the the tv and the radios it's just all negative shit when there's people out there doing charity work and saving children and help people become better and never gets noticed never because it doesn't sell i could have the most inspirational man on this planet nobody but he's asked but i've got yourself on undercover cop locked up in a fucking mental institute suicidal lost all these fucking females in his life to guys in turkey it's there how are you feeling now oh it's always good to talk isn't it i mean talk and that's the books the book was therapeutic yeah writing it down remembering it all you know it's it was a joy to write and i hope people buy it i mean i was doing the same thanks one there's a guy called andi i've only met since i met jane and he made me think i started it 10 years ago i never finished it and he made me he said look he said that's that's line of duty real not fiction line of duty real not fiction he said you should get that out there i went i tell andi i will and that's how i did it yeah but that's the podcast we'll give it a boost i'll be nice when you listen if you want to go another podcast i'm more than happy to put you on to people um great story unbelievable for what you've come from what you've overcome fucked up again now you're back um yeah let's say the best thing about being a police officer what was the best thing the best thing about being a police officer is for me was being helping people as well as locking them up and also even when i locked him up i still liked him yeah and i could and i don't think you'd find a guy who i locked up we would say he's the wrong one i didn't like him they all they all talked to me like i'm their mate even back they'd gone to jail and come back out again you know i mean they were still friends i think you've got that personality seeing you were in there meant just before we finished up seeing you were in the minute did you get questioned for like split personality or all that that you can play certain characters for that you can you could same as me and sit me across from a nun a priest a gangster a terrorist and i'll have them all laugh at me sometimes i think i'm psychotic this is one of my appellation tools the reason why my guests relax and open up is the sort of i'm your friend this and i am but it's to get the story to then make them relax but again it's it's it's like a chess movie yeah yeah it's like different characters different faces for different places ironically the people in the mental realm didn't believe i was the next undercover i was in the base of these fucking nuts could could you or potentially been in there as well as an undercover cop to get information for the mentally ill i'd down that the police has got the balls to put people inside custody to do that kind of stuff because it's such a rough environment and the dangers are so so high yeah i mean you don't have to be you don't i'll give you an example a guy i know um he killed somebody for stealing his three pound binotone radio i said you got 15 years on top for a three pound radio he goes rob it's not the radio it's not the money it's the principle if i let him take my radio he'll be back with others to take my ass and that's not happening so i killed him and that's what he said what were you thinking when you're in there with these people with because do you feel as if it was granted for you to be there especially when you're in with colors and terrorists and inside the mental institute oh no it was surreal it was out there was one guy who was a murderer he used to walk around around the square every day wouldn't talk to anybody i don't i'm not talking to anybody you're bound to be a snitch oh i used to fucking run after him catch him and i was saying how you're doing i used to be joking i need to get quick and clear i said what do we do is talk mate let's have a talk you know it's good to talk and by the end of the three months he was walking around with me talking yeah just me and him he doesn't speak to nobody how you feeling today after going through some of your journey good yeah i think you smashed that man i genuinely hope your book does well i'll leave the link in the description for people to get but just before we finish up for anybody that's in that struggle for anybody that doesn't think there's a way out maybe losing that loved one or their partner or their job maybe feeling like ending it like you've done what advice would you have for them don't do it because it eventually you can bring it around you can bring around with a bit of medical help as well a bit of some chemical help but definitely can bring it around and i'm having a great life now i'm having the best life i've ever had and the woman i'm with is the best woman i've ever had so you know don't give it up life life is a great gift keep it me money is real yeah um he's been in about over 20 years of Morocco one of the biggest taste and the UK i don't know if it's still the biggest um but what's your connection with you and me money well basically um it's a lot of me being explained squad but um lightning Lee Murray or Lee Murray's is known to his friends um he's by family sort of related to me in a very distant way and um all i'm saying is if there's any been out there lawyer wise or anybody with a shed load of money who thinks that it's time he's done his time he's the only guy on the raid who's still inside he's been in Morocco for 20 since 2006 i think you know 20 seven years or something you've got a 30 year stretch all the other boys are out give him a break and send him home to his family his kids need a dad and his partner needs a needs husband get him out please if you you know get him out contact James and let's get it sold thank you very much can um how's how is he still over is that because he's Moroccan they've kept him for that long how's can it not get uh um sent over the UK as they applied for i think i think there's been a lot of underhand stuff on that you know he shouldn't be there he shouldn't be there now all the boys are out by him it's ridiculous and i think there's a bit of a bit of government play here yeah it'd be great to get him out i'd love to see me as i know a few boys who know him and he was proper yeah yeah but yeah like i say he served his time hopefully he can get out and anybody yeah i know there's petitions and others i don't know if it's his sister or whatever it is somebody it's on instagram that's got petitions so anybody that's there go over sign the petition and try and push it to try and get him out but listen rob for coming on and telling your story i've thoroughly enjoyed it man listen it's been a pleasure yeah proud of you and anybody that's wanted by the book will leave a link in the description hopefully we can give it a good push for you um a lot of great stories in there i wish you nothing but the best for the future god bless you and stay out of turkey bro thank you

CF Killed the ITSM Star - Kyle Campos, CSAA Insurance
The enterprise change process is filled with tickets, approvals and all forms of non-deterministic change review and time wasting gates that dominate the ITSM landscape. Cloud Foundry has thrown a monkey wrench into ITSM in the form of high velocity change via CI/CD and a healthy embrace of the DevOps "automate all the things" mantra.
Our DevOps and PCF platform leader, Kyle Campos, will talk about how we at CSAA are raising the quality and security bars of the platform even as deployment velocity increases through infrastructure and application CI/CD pipelines and how automation can serve the ITSM overlords through higher levels of determinism.

All right, good afternoon, everybody. My name is Kyle Campos. I am the Enterprise DevOps and Platform Leader at CSA Insurance. We are a 100-year-old company insurance provider for AAA. I am a frustrated but hopeful cloud leader inside of a large enterprise. Our journey inside of Cloud Foundry actually came out of the frustration of change management to a large degree. It was extremely painful to get infrastructure. It was extremely painful once you had that infrastructure to get your code on it. So really, it was a engineering revolt that started Cloud Foundry at CSA that got it in there. So I know we all have different experiences with ITSM. Some of these are obviously going to be my experiences. I know they are to a large degree shared experiences. Some of the details might, you might have optimized some areas where we haven't, and that's great. But hopefully at the end of this, we can see that we have different delivery models and where we can align, we should. Where we can optimize one or the other, we should. But at the end of the goal, I'm here to talk about injecting value around fast delivery and inverting that risk, speed, fear that currently exists in large enterprises around ITSM. So when I set some definitions to, when I refer to our legacy ops environment, that is very low levels of automation, low to none, and extremely high levels of control. So friction everywhere at every turn. So I can start with, I'm focusing on change management for ITSM. So if I pull up the ITIL definition, the goal of change management processes is to ensure that standardized methods and procedures are used for efficient and prompt handling of all changes in order to minimize the impact of change-related incidents upon service quality and consequently improve the day-to-day operations of the organization. So just definition-wise, I'm like, I'm aligned. I'm with you. Like, those outcomes sound great, and we're in full alignment. The trick is, when you extract those words efficient and prompt, I look at what's happening in our legacy ops stack. I look at what's happening in our Cloud Foundry stack, and you can't help but think that those words mean entirely different things to each side of that organization. So we have to kind of tear that back a little bit and say, OK, well, what are the attributes of those methods and procedures in the legacy ops stack versus Cloud Foundry continuous delivery stack? So what I've found is, in the ITSM world, the methods and procedures are traditionally expressed through documentation primarily. The ownership is through governance boards, quite large ones, depending on the size of your enterprise. And the focus tends to be lowest common denominator or slowest common denominator. It has to account for everything. So whatever crazy app team did something 20 years and it's insanely complex, the process has to bend to that. It's measured by compliance. That's kind of its primary focus. Just as long as you do what we say, you're good. Some of the smells here, if you're like, I think I'm in that world, accountability is more highly valued than determinism. So at any point in the process, they feel like there's somebody accountable for that. It doesn't matter in what form they bring that accountability, just as long as they have a name or a team. That's all that matters. And I'm not saying accountability doesn't matter. I'm just saying that it tends to matter the most here. Over time, delivery slows just by nature as more teams come into the process, as you get more applications, governance boards increase, processes increase. So meetings in human touch point tend to increase over time. In continuous delivery models, the methods and procedures tend to be expressed through code, or they should be expressed through code. The ownership should be in the delivery team's hands. The focus should be acceleration, and you measure it by performance. Some of the fruits that start to come out here is that determinism is more important than accountability. So how you get to that decision is more important than who's the name, who can I blame if it goes wrong. I assume most of you have experience in this world. You'll know that a lot of the decisions, approvals are left up to people's whims. They have no idea what this change is about, but they will be accountable because they hit the approve button. So here we wanna inject determinism into how we deliver software. And over time, the delivery should get faster. If the focus is acceleration, we're always looking to optimize speed. And then pipelines increase and human touch point decreases over time. So when you're continuously delivering anywhere a human comes into contact with it, sticks out like a sore thumb, right? And it's a target too for optimization. If we take the same approach here, old and new against efficient and prompt, what are some of the characteristics here? So efficiency, the aim tends to be process refinements. Like that's how you squeeze out efficiency in ITSM. Like, okay, we had five dropdowns on this first ticket. Maybe we'd take it down to four. That's primarily where the process refinements come in. And then the vehicle is training, right? Get people into more training. Let them learn the new processes. It's measured by traceability. Is there other breadcrumbs at every step? The smells here is traceability first. Just as long as you know what happened, it tends to be good enough for efficiency's sake. And then what you run into is that the process, it gets gained to gain efficiency, right? So people naturally feel frustrated that there are changes in getting through in time. And there's all sorts of crafty methods, people gain that system by, whether it's how you get a change approved, whether it's how many changes you shove into some approval form, right? Like, okay, well, if I do one request with 50 things and then I'm gonna get that through faster than I can, I had 50 different releases. There's a very high tolerance towards wasted effort, right? I've been in deployment meetings with literally 100 people on the phone and nobody is embarrassed by that. And I'm embarrassed and nobody's embarrassed. And I'm like, we should all be shocked right now that this is what it's taking. And it creates specialized workforces, right? So there's teams that exist solely to help people navigate that complexity, right? In the new model, the aim is higher quality on time software, full stop. Our vehicle to get there is through automation. We measure it by delivery KPIs. And repeatability first is one of the main fruits, right? It isn't just get it through at all costs and then we celebrate, it's what you've done repeatable and then namely through pipelining, right? The pipeline in this case is the most efficient way to get it to prod. So whereas in ITSM, you're frequently gaming it to get things going faster in continuous delivery, your pipeline is the best way to get there, right? There's no faster way to get it into prod or better way, I should say, faster and better. There might be a faster way, but not a safe way. And in the pipeline world, there's really low tolerance for wasted effort, right? Where you see it, it sticks out and you attack it. And there's team ownership on these pipelines because it's a cross-functional pipeline, right? You're taking it from an engineer's hands and laptop into production and depending on your gates and all the quality and security and performance stuff you have to do, there's a lot of people that are contributing to that pipeline and they have to feel a sense of ownership over it. They have their own KPIs for their boxes along that pipeline and how efficient they run. All right, the illusion. So here's some of the illusions we fall under and inside of ITSM. You get the sense that there's safety and complexity, right? There's this feeling like the harder we make this process, the more people that are involved, the more steps that are involved, it must be injecting safety because there's just so many checkpoints, right? But most of those or many of them tend to be arbitrary. They're non-deterministic. So it's mostly in many cases a facade. Another illusion is that approval is the same thing as accountability. I have conversations probably every week with some other vice president who says, I just keep clicking approve on these things. I have no idea what they are, right? And they're frustrated and they want somebody else on their team to just keep clicking approve. So approval really at the end of the day when you look at changes, there may be one person there that had any idea in that chain of what this change was. The other illusion and it's sort of this false dichotomy that gets set up on the ITSM side, right? Is that if you're going fast, it must be reckless. So I'm here to talk on a third way that is fast and not reckless, fast and safe. The way I kind of explained this landscape for getting software into production is this, this dangerous road off in the horizon there if we imagine off in the valley is where we're gonna start with a code commit and up here are heavenly production on the top of that we ascend the mountain. So many turns, right? We start with a code commit and then our first sort of junction point if we're being good stewards here is that you have some measure of testing that's gonna happen, right? And after that, you gotta make another turn at process. You gotta make a change request with whatever that artifact is and whenever the change logs are. And then that's gotta go through some set of approvals however many it takes to get through your organization. Then you gotta open up a change window when's this gonna happen, right? And then you do the change and then you gotta wrangle another group of people that are gonna come back around and validate the change and say everything that's right, you didn't break the 60 other teams in your company. This is a very generous view. I'm gonna say, we'll say success at that point. That's a very generous amount of steps there. But congrats, you got it into one environment, right? Okay, now go ahead and repeat all of that for your test environments. You're gonna have to cross the bridge of real data which is always a harrowing effort. However many pre-prod environments you may have and then eventually you get it into production, right? And so ITSM overlords will kind of show these huge process maps and say like, yeah, that's it. By the way, you have to drive that road with like the junkiest beat up old car that you're gonna hate. It's really uncomfortable and annoying. And you start complaining enough about that and they're like, okay, we'll optimize a little bit. And then they're like, we got a newer car for you to take all the same turns. You gotta do all the same process bits, right? Nothing is substantively changed with the process. You might, maybe a little more comfortable. We took a few radio buttons away. The approval list is from 30 to 25, whatever it may be, right? And then we come along with Cloud Foundry and we try to explain that there's a paradigm shift, right? Now I have a cable car that goes from the bottom straight to the top of that mountain. It's repeatable. It's the same journey every time, right? I don't have to make those turns. I don't have to stop at that stop light. I don't have to look both ways here or there, right? You're still gonna get the questions. Okay, great. They'll say, I understand you have this whole fancy thing out there, but you still have a driver's license, right? And you're gonna still obey all my rules and you kind of give them, no. That's not exactly what I'm talking about here. So then we get into the paradigm shift and how we explain this. And by the way, just as encouragement, this will be, if you're involved with this now, this will be, you'll have this conversation many, many, many times and you'll win it and then you're gonna have to win it again in two weeks. And so that's the frustrated part of me, but I'm remaining hopeful here. So in the old ITSM, right? Change request is out of band. It's never, it's not event-driven. You've done a bunch of things and then you gotta generate this request. The approval, as we've talked about, it's broad and it's arbitrary. The change windows are very often coordinated and they're static, right? They're either a set window you have or it's a unique one-time window that you set. The change is unique, non-item potent, right? So if you were to do it again, you'd have to do all the stuff again each way, even though if it's a scripted or a standard change set that you have in your process, it's essentially a unique event each time. And the change validation is unique to the change type, right? So you're like, oh, I think I might have messed up group X over there, so get them in here. And the larger point here is that the posture is that the more times you do this, the more operational risk you're adding, right? So everybody's just terrified of you doing the process, the terrible process that they set up. Like, please don't do this. The more times you deploy, the more operational risks there are. In the new, we're saying change requests are event-driven, right? They happen the moment, packages made perhaps, or once your tests say that it can be deployed, right? It's as soon as it needs to. The approval should be deterministic and automated. So when I was doing this change, I would, for our products, I'd look at that approval list, I'd go to each one of them and I'd say, you approve this, what do you need to know about when we're deploying this app for you to say it's good? And they're like, I don't even care, I just always hit approve. So I'm like, okay, you're out of the list. And just one by one, go down. And I honestly, in this case, found exactly zero people that cared for whenever we deployed this. They had no dependency chain to it, not a care in the world. So in their case, it's only our, in this one app's case, it's only our test that matter. But there's certainly room for external dependencies and automation that you can weave in there. And we have that for some of our applications. But the point being, get determinism into that. Like what is the, what needs to light up green for you to be happy that it can go? That change window is encapsulated in dynamic, right? So it's, since we're event driven, the deploy will happen once all the tests say is safe. And then the change window is as small as it needs to be for that change to happen. And obviously with Cloud Foundry, we have a lot of great ways of doing zero downtime deployments, right? Change should be uniform and not impotent, right? So part of this being the nature of immutable software, the other part of it being that you have great pipelines. And again, change validation, we build that into your blue-green deployment, right? So if we have some fear that production is significantly different than staging or your pre-prod environments, which in most enterprises, there's always some measure of surprise. You can build in all types of safety mechanisms into your blue-green deployment, cut over traffic slowly, you know, the Netflix model, you can carry stuff, whatever you need to do in production. But the point is I don't want anybody calling my team to say stay up at 1 a.m. and go tell us if this is broken. We want the robots to do that. And then here, the posture is, change reduces operational risk, right? So we're trying to say the more times we do this, the better we get at it, the better our product is, the more value our customers receive on time. So we're really trying to invert that posture. So I talked a little bit about it performance being measured by KPIs. So there's a lot, obviously each, you know, if you kind of envision a massive pipeline, each job is gonna have its own runtime that you're gonna want those teams to be accountable to. But a macro KPI here for us is the time from the package build, so that the second something could possibly get to prod, to the time it actually lives in prod, what is the time difference between that? And on our most optimized pipeline, that time is 38 minutes, right? So we set baselines for each one of these products. So from the time engineer commands, all the tests runs, the package is built, typically takes about 38 minutes for that to go through all the different testing QA browser tests and API tests and security and performance and land up in production, right? And so for us, we're like that, that's pretty aren't great for us. Like 38 minutes is pretty fantastic. I don't know that we can do much better than that though we should try. Now for others, that is just mind blown. What are you doing? There's 38, when I show this at our QBRs, there's half the room that's like, oh, I wanna know how and the other room is just like pounding their head off the desk, like 38 minutes. And so they're like, Kyle, why are you not getting into the cab meeting for this stuff? And this is actually a real life conversation I had. I am on the board, I've just, haven't been in any of those meetings in a long time. So the big idea that I'm trying to get through here I guess is that undefployed code is at best a depreciating asset, right? Every minute delay from the time it could be deployed to the time it's in production decreases the value and increases the risk. You can ask any engineer, would you rather fix a problem you committed 38 minutes ago or one that you worked on three months ago? If they're still working there by the time it makes production which we've had examples of both, right? So risk in that sense from an application engineering sense also obviously from a security posture, right? So the security has done application developers the biggest favor here in stories like Equifax and such that were sort of frozen by change sets that were too big, they couldn't get through, couldn't update their web stacks. And now everybody learns from that. Oh, I guess it is a problem when you can't deploy at a moment's notice very quickly and safely to your environments, right? So the security story has helped us illuminate the application story here. So some takeaways here. I'm asking us Cloud Foundry evangelists here to really embrace the paradigm shift and to not shoehorn CF in as a step forward optimization. It's a new path. So the bait is for the legacy ops ITSM stack to just say like, hey, you're just another runtime, whatever, do everything the same. And we have to do the hard work to communicate the paradigm shift here. Otherwise you're not gonna reap all the benefits of the platform. And as good DevOps engineers, we need to use system thinking with the goal of continuous delivery into production as the framework through which you optimize. So if our mental framework is that pipeline from engineers hands into production and we use system thinking about how do we optimize that whole pipeline? Your considerations need to be for the performance of that entire pipeline like that KPI I showed. And not just, oh, the QA guys like to work this way. And so they take the football and they run away for a week and they come back or the security guys like to do the same and performance likes to do the same. And then four weeks later, we have a release optimize for continuous delivery in production. And the truth is we're beyond rejecting the false dichotomies and non-to-inverse relationships when I talked about speed and security. So the legacy mindset will be fast is reckless and we're not just saying it's a false dichotomy and they're disconnected. Or now we're on to actually saying, actually there's industry proof that it's the inverse of that. Being slow is reckless, right? If your whole business can vanish if you can't get fixes out at a moment's notice. We got to relentlessly hunt down in determinism, right? Where it exists, where people's whims are there, where it's a phone call, where it's a meeting, where it's people's hunches and fears, you got to drive that out of the room and certainly don't let it all into the pipeline. And time to market is a KPI for every change. Minimize depreciating assets in the form of undeployed code. So I mean frequently we use that KPI at a business abstract layer, right? This product, this big feature, but you really got to drive that down to every change. Like how are we treating every change as important to get into a product as soon as possible? Champion convention rather than chastise over compliance. So this is more of a culture awareness note for the two different models. Frequently the feeling in the legacy ops and ITSM stack is that you're just getting browbeat for compliance on the process, right? Regardless of if you're like, but I found a new efficiency or something like that. So champion the convention of your pipelines, right? And like I was talking about the pipelines, if it is the most efficient way, then you're just creating opportunity for application teams to leverage the most benefit, right? If you inherit this convention, your life will be so much easier. And the process should serve the outcome not the other way around. I'm really consistently amazed about how often you get into meetings and processes held up like this, just like unchangeable force in the room where the humans, we create these things, we shouldn't make them do what we want. And the outcomes are really an alignment opportunity. So as I engage with our ITSM partners, you know, I tell them like look, we want the same thing. We're gonna get there differently and where we can align on technology, let's do it, where we can talk together, where my robot can talk to your robot, let's do that, right? But let's align on the outcomes and not the how. So to wrap up, I think we just really need to leverage this paradigm shift as Cloud Foundry enthusiasts to establish that new organizational value structures around the speed of delivery. It takes a lot of work, a lot of repeated work, a lot of unfun work, but it's necessary. Don't let the legacy pressure of just another runtime pull you back into the land of illusion. Let's deliver fast, safe, and deliver value. And there's one last thing here before I close. I have change request 24, winging 79.68 for ending this presentation. If you could just approve that, I'll be done. There's my contact information. If you have any questions, I will be talking with Pivotal guys on a panel about Platform as a Product a little bit later. Yeah, I'll be hanging out. That's all, thanks.

Covert, Women Narcissists Make It Into NEW DSM 5-TR
|
The new text revision (TR) of the DSM 5 includes several important changes:
1. Covert narcissism as well as malignant narcissism finally made it into the text;
2. The DSM 5-TR recognizes the parity between women and men in terms of NPD diagnoses;
3. Pathological narcissism is reframed as compensatory in nature, intended to offset deep feelings of inferiority, shame, failure, and inadequacy;
4. NPD is associated with depression, reactive to self-perception of failure.
But, unlike the ICD-11, the DSM 5-TR fails to transition fully from the categorical to the dimensional model of personality disorders and fails to embrace the emerging realization that all personality disorders are mere facets of one underlying condition, a single clinical entity.

Good morning, Svanpanim. I have several earth-shattering news for you. Number one, Mini, my black smiling borderline is back. You can see on my face that my anxiety is much mitigated and relieved and I'm not asking her where she has been. Don't ask, don't tell. Second bit of news. Taking into account your level of IQ and illiteracy, I am not going to use words like very similitude, alacrity and so on. I'm going to go easy on you this time. And the tinctin abulation of your supplication had reached my ears and I relented. Look it up. Today we are going to discuss the much awaited new edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, aka DSM. It is a DSM-5 and it is the text revision released a few weeks ago, 9 years in the making. And there are two breaking news when it comes to narcissistic personality disorder. For the first time, the manual acknowledges the existence of covert or vulnerable narcissists explicitly in the text, as you will see. The second, in my view, equally important piece of news is that the DSM accepts parity between women and men. Women and men presenting in clinical settings are equally as likely to be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder and that is a major shift since the 1980s and 90s when the third and fourth editions of the DSM were published. And yet, having plowed through this thick-set tomb in 1,100 pages, ten times as long as the first edition in 1952, by the way, having plowed through it, I am disappointed. And I think the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Committee is still, to some extent, in-hoc to the insurance industry and the interests of the pharmaceutical industry. I'm sorry to say. And I refer you to my video where I compare the DSM to the 11th edition of the ICD, International Classification of Diseases, published by the World Health Organization. The ICD is the world's DSM. DSM is used mostly in North America. The ICD is courageous. It is gone where no one has before. And it incorporates the latest cutting edge, bleeding edge, info emanating from Akadem. I can't say this about the DSM. I wish I could. They are hesitant, pusillanimous attempts in the DSM, in the current text revision, to kind of experiment with and broach the possibility of a dimensional model without a list of diagnostic criteria. And I will analyze these attempts shortly. But they fall short. All in all, they fall short. And indeed, the American Psychiatric Association, the publisher of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, described the text revision as a facelift. They admitted. Anyhow, I'm going to read extensive excerpts from the text revision and dwell upon the changes to the diagnostic criteria and so on and so forth. When it comes to cluster B personality disorders, there are some things which are very new. And there is an incorporation of the latest research and the latest knowledge. So I'm going to make a series of videos. Each video dedicated to another cluster B personality disorder. The first one, of course, is narcissistic personality disorder. The next video I will make is borderline personality disorder in the DSM 5 text revision, etc. And then psychopathy, antisocial personality disorder, and so on. So what does the American Psychiatric Association have to say about the latest attempt at capturing the psychopathology of the human soul? What does it say about the current state of knowledge, state of art, when it comes to clinical psychology? And I'll be quoting from now. From here on, I'll be quoting. I'll be citing the text. They say mental disorders, fifth edition text revision DSM 5 TR is the first published revision of the DSM 5. This revised manual integrates the original published DSM diagnostic criteria with modifications, mostly for clarity, for over 70 disorders. Comprehensively updated descriptive text accompanying each of the DSM disorders based on reviews of the literature since the publication of the DSM 5 and the addition of a new diagnosis, prolonged GRIF disorder. Yes, you've heard it. You've heard it here for the first time. Richard and I discussed prolonged GRIF disorder way before it had become an official diagnosis in the text revision of the DSM 5. Okay. And then there are symptom codes for reporting suicidal and non-suicidal self-injurious behavior. The APA continues to say, these changes differ from the scope of the prior text revision, DSM 4 text revision, in which the updates were confined almost exclusively to the text, leaving the diagnostic criteria virtually unchanged. This addition also integrates all prior online updates made to the DSM 5 after its publication in 2013 in response to usage, specific scientific advances and ICD-10-CM coding adjustments through an iterative revision process. Consequently, says the American Psychiatric Association, the publisher of the DSM. Consequently, the DSM 5TR is a product of three separate revision processes, each one overseen by separate but overlapping groups of experts. The development of the original DSM 5 diagnostic criteria and text by the DSM 5 Task Force published in 2013 updates to the DSM 5 diagnostic criteria and text by the DSM Steering Committee, which has overseen the iterative revision process and fully updated text overseen by the revision subcommittee. Talk about bureaucracy. The clinical and research understanding of mental disorders continues to advance, no kidding. As a result, most of the DSM 5TR disorder texts have had at least some revision since the nine years from original publication in DSM 5, with the overwhelming majority having had significant revisions. I couldn't say this, by the way, in the cluster B personality disorders, but what do I know? APA continues. Sections of the texts that were most extensively updated were prevalence, risk and prognostic factors, culture-related diagnostic issues, sex and gender-related diagnostic issues, association with suicidal thoughts, or behavior and comorbidity. Also for the first time ever, the entire DSM text has been reviewed and revised by a work group on ethnoracially-called equity and inclusion to ensure appropriate attention to risk factors such as the experience of racism and discrimination, as well as to the use of non-stigmatizing language. The walk movement had reached the DSM. Congratulations! And here's what the DSM, the new version, the text revision, has to say in capsule in a nutshell about the cluster B personality disorders. Antisocial personality disorder, says the DSM-TR, is a pattern of disregard for and violation of the rights of others, criminality, I'm sorry, impulsivity and failure to learn from experience. That's my autobiography in short form. Borderline personality disorder is a pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image and effects and marked impulsivity. Histrionic personality disorder is a pattern of excessive emotionality and attention-seeking. It is regrettable that the DSM-5 didn't merge histrionic personality disorder with either borderline personality disorder or with antisocial personality disorder, especially the malignant forms known as psychopathy. This is the latest thinking. And finally, the DSM-TR defines narcissistic personality disorder as a pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration and lack of empathy. What does the text revision have to say about cluster B in general? It says cluster B includes antisocial, borderline, histrionic and narcissistic personality disorders. I remind you by the way that cluster B is also known as erratic and dramatic personality disorder. The DSM continues, individuals with these cluster B disorders often appear dramatic, emotional or erratic. A review of epidemiological studies from several countries found a median prevalence of 3.6% for disorders in cluster A, 4.5% for cluster B, 2.8% for cluster C and 10.5% for any personality disorder. Prevalence appears to vary across countries and by ethnicity, raising questions about true cross-cultural variation and about the impact of diverse definitions and diagnostic instruments on prevalence assessment. I would even add and say that such variance among cultures may raise the possibility that these are not real clinical entities at all, but culture-balanced syndromes. But that's a debate for another time. And the DSM-5 introduces dimensional models for personality disorders. It explains these models in the following way. The diagnostic approach used in this manual represents the categorical perspective that personality disorders are qualitatively distinct clinical syndromes. An alternative to the categorical approach is the dimensional perspective that personality disorders represent maladaptive variance of personality traits that merge imperceptibly into normality and into one another. By the way, I've been advocating this since 1995. And so they created in the text revision, actually in the DSM-5, they created a whole section dedicated to this alternative dimensional model. It's section 3 and there's a full description of the dimensional model for personality disorders in that section. The DSM continues to say, the DSM-5 personality disorder clusters, odd eccentric, dramatic, emotional and anxious fear form, may also be viewed as dimensions representing spectra of personality dysfunction on a continuum with other mental disorders. Yes, exactly DSM. The alternative dimensional models have much in common and together appear to cover the important areas of personality dysfunction, here's to meaning. Their integration, clinical utility and relationship with the personality disorder diagnostic categories and various aspects of personality dysfunction continue to be under active investigation. They need to establish the validity of these alternative models. This includes research on whether the dimensional model can clarify the cross-cultural prevalence variations seen with the categorical model. Okay, let's get to business and our business of course is cluster B personality disorders. In this video I'm going to cover narcissistic personality disorder. The survivors of this video can proceed in the future to other videos in which I will cover borderline personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder as well as psychopathy. Let's start with narcissistic personality disorder and a few breaking news, prevalence, I'm reading from the text. The estimated prevalence of narcissistic personality disorder based on a probability subsample from part two of the national comorbidity survey replication and the national epidemiologic survey on alcohol and related conditions, so this prevalence was actually 6.2%. Yes, all of you were right, narcissism is far more widespread than was given credit for in previous editions of the DSM. A review of five epidemiological studies for in the United States found a median prevalence of 1.6%. So there is still a big debate as to how prevalent narcissism is, but taking into account for example the fact that narcissists are reluctant, they're low to attend therapy or to be diagnosed, I think the 6% is closer to the mark, between three and five definitely. What about sex and gender related features? The DSM has this to say, among adults aged 18 and older diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder, 50 to 75% are men. So for the first time or for the second time actually, the DSM accepts that about 50% of all people diagnosed with NPD are actually women. This is a major explosion in the diagnosis of narcissism, pathological narcissism among women. Gender differences, the text continues, gender differences in adults with this disorder include stronger reactivity in response to stress and compromised empathic processing in men as opposed to self-focus and withdrawal in women. As I've been saying, women and men manifest express narcissistic personality disorder differently. Culturally based gender patterns says the DSM and expectations may also contribute to gender differences in narcissistic personality disorder, traits and patterns. So gender bias and even misogyny are reflected in the work on narcissistic personality disorder over the decades starting 107 years ago. What happened to the diagnostic criteria? In short, nothing since the DSM Edition 3 text revision. We're talking 40 plus years, something is wrong with that. We know a lot more about narcissistic personality disorder than we had known in 1980 and yet the text of the diagnostic criteria has changed very little, if at all. This doesn't sound right, but at any rate I'm going to read the text to you, Diagnostic Criteria F60.81. The pervasive pattern of grandiosity in fantasy or behavior, need for admiration and lack of empathy beginning by early adulthood, presented and present in a variety of contexts as indicated by five or more of the following diagnostic criteria. Number one, is a grandiose sense of self-importance. Example, exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements. Number two, is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty or ideal love. Number three, ideal love by the way is what I call and what Sanger called shared fantasy. Number three, believes that he or she is special and unique and can only be understood by or should associate with other special or high status people or institutions. Number four, requires excessive admiration. Number five, bring it on, bring it on. Number five, has a sense of entitlement. In other words, unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations. Number six, is interpersonally exploitative, takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends. Number seven, lacks empathy, is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others. Number eight, is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her. Number nine, shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes. By the way, those of you who want to view, who want to actually read these criteria, it's on page 760. Much more important than the diagnostic criteria to my mind, is the text. Now the text which describes the narcissist, his functioning, his interpersonal relationships and his internal landscape, the text had been revised. Had been revised in each and every edition of the DSM and the text revision of DSM-5 is no exception. There are few revisions to the text. Rather than point out the differences, I'm going to simply read the entire text to you because it's an excellent introduction to the narcissist, to pathological narcissism and a counterweight to many nonsensical, self-styled experts with and without academic degrees. Listen well. This is the Bible of the psychiatric profession. Ignore, ignore most of the trash online. Here's what the DSM text revision has to say about narcissistic personality disorder, starting with its diagnostic features. The essential feature of narcissistic personality disorder is a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration and lack of empathy that begins by early adulthood, by early adulthood, not earlier, and present in a variety of contexts. Individuals with this disorder have a grandiose sense of self-importance which may be manifest as an exaggerated or unrealistic sense of superiority, value or capability. They tend to overestimate their abilities and amplify their accomplishments, often appearing boastful and pretentious. Yes, yes, I hear you. They may blithely assume that others attribute the same value to their efforts and may be surprised when the praise they expect and feel they deserve is not forthcoming. Often implicit in the inflated judgments of their own accomplishments is an underestimation or devaluation of the contributions of other people. Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder are often preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty or ideal love. They may ruminate about long overdue admiration and privilege and compare themselves favorably with famous or privileged people. Now, before I proceed, the alternative model, which I will read to you later, modifies this. And it modifies this to incorporate the latest research which demonstrates conclusively that all this is a facade. It's a compensatory effort. The narcissist deep inside feels inferior, feels empty, feels inadequate. And he tries to compensate for this by pretending to be exactly the opposite. But this does not appear in Edition 4 and the text revision of Edition 4. It makes an appearance for the first time subtly in the DSM-5 and openly and explicitly in this text revision. So the alternative model is very important, much more important than the classical 40 years old diagnostic criteria. And still, I'm going to present to you the entire text so that you can form your own opinions and make up your own minds. Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder believe that they are special or unique and expect others to recognize them as such. They can be surprised or even devastated when the recognition of a claim that they expect and feel that they deserve from others is not forthcoming. They may feel that they can only be understood by and should only associate with people of high status and may attribute unique, perfect or gifted qualities to those with whom they associate. This is the process of co-idealization. Individuals with this disorder believe that their needs are special and beyond the ken of ordinary people. Their own self-esteem is enhanced, mirrored by the idealized value that they assign to those with whom they associate co-idealization. They are likely to insist on having only the top person, doctor, lawyer, hairdresser, instructor or they would insist on being affiliated with the best institutions that they may devalue the credentials of those who disappoint them. Individuals with this disorder generally require excessive admiration. Their self-esteem is almost invariably very fragile and their struggle with severe internal self-doubt, self-criticism and emptiness results in their need to actively seek others' admiration. Here we come to the compensatory aspect of narcissism. This is why we are beginning to think that narcissists who are ego-distanic, narcissists who don't feel inferior, narcissists who don't feel inadequate are actually not narcissists at all, but psychopaths. What we used to call the overt grandiose narcissist is probably a subspecies or sub-variant of a psychopath. And the only real narcissist is the overt or grandiose narcissist who compensates for a lack of inner conviction for very harsh inner critic for unrelenting self-criticism. This would be a true narcissist or a covert narcissist. That's another variant of a true narcissist. The text continues, narcissists may be preoccupied with how well they are doing and how favorably they are regarded by others. They may expect their arrival to be greeted with great, great fanfare and they are astonished if others do not covet their positions. They may constantly fish for compliments, often with great charm. This is something I called false modesty. The narcissist continues the text. The narcissist has a sense of entitlement which is rooted in their distorted sense of self-worth. And it is evident in these individuals unreasonable expectation of especially favorable treatment. They expect to be catered to and are puzzled or furious when this does not happen. For example, they may assume that they do not have to wait in line and that their priorities are so important that others should defer to them and then get irritated when others fail to assist in their very important work. They expect to be given whatever they want or feel they need, no matter what it might mean to others. For example, these individuals may expect great dedication from others, may overwork others without regard for the impact on other people's lives. This sense of entitlement, combined with a lack of understanding and sensitivity to the wants and needs of others, may result in the conscious, unwitting exploitation of other people. Narcissists tend to form friendships or romantic relationships only if the other person seems likely to advance their purposes or otherwise enhance their self-esteem source of narcissistic supply. They often usurp special privileges and extra resources that they believe they deserve. Some individuals with narcissistic personality disorder intentionally and purposefully take advantage of others emotionally, socially, intellectually or financially for their own purposes and gains. This would be the psychopathic end of the spectrum, by the way. This would be the psychopathic or malignant narcissist. Okay, continuing the text. Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder generally have a lack of empathy and are unwilling to recognize or identify with the desires, subjective experiences and feelings of other people. They tend to have some degree of cognitive empathy. That's what I call cold empathy. Cognitive empathy is one component of cold empathy. Cold empathy is reflexive empathy plus cognitive empathy. So, coming back to the text. Narcissists tend to have some degree of cognitive empathy. That's a major departure from previous DSM editions, by the way. Some degree of cognitive empathy, understanding another person's perspective on an intellectual level, but narcissists lack emotional empathy, directly feeling the emotions that another person is feeling. These individuals may be oblivious to the hurt their remarks may inflict. For example, exuberantly telling a former lover that I am now in the relationship of a lifetime, or boasting of health in front of someone who is terminally ill. When recognized, the needs, desires or feelings of other people are likely to be viewed disparagingly, signs of weakness or vulnerability. Those who relate to individuals with narcissistic personality disorder typically find an emotional coldness and lack of reciprocal interest. These individuals are often envious of others, or believed that others are envious of them. They may begrudge others their successes or possessions, feeling that they better deserve those achievements, admiration or privileges. They may harshly devalue the contributions of other people, particularly when those individuals have received acknowledgement or praise for their accomplishments. Arrogant, haughty behaviors characterized narcissists, they often display snobbish, disdainful or patronizing attitudes. These are the diagnostic features. What about the clinical picture, what we call the associated features? The text says, vulnerability in self-esteem makes individuals with narcissistic personality disorder very sensitive to criticism or defeat. Although they may not show it outwardly, such experiences may leave them feeling ashamed, humiliated, degraded, hollow and empty. They may react with disdain, rage or defined counter-attack. However, such experiences can also lead to social withdrawal, or an appearance of humility that may mask and protect the grandiosity. I've described this in my writings decades ago, how narcissists become schizoid, how they withdraw when they are narcissistically injured, let alone modified. I also describe false modesty or pseudo-humility. Interpersonal relations continuous attacks that are typically impaired because of problems related to self-preoccupation, entitlement, need for admiration and a relative disregard for the sensitivities of others. Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder can be competent and high-functioning with professional and social success, while others can have various levels of functional impairment. So we have high-functioning narcissists and low-functioning narcissists. Professional capability, combined with self-control, stoicism and interpersonal distancing with minimal self-disclosure, can support sustained life engagement and even enable marriage and social affiliations. Sometimes ambition and temporary confidence lead to high achievements, but performance can be disrupted because of fluctuating self-confidence and intolerance of criticism or defeat. Do you hear this, Donald Trump? Some individuals with narcissistic personality disorder have very low vocational functioning, reflecting an unwillingness to take a risk in competitive or other situations in which failure or defeat can be possible. Narcissists are also, may I add, lazy and some of them are perfectionist, which causes them to procrastinate or avoid tasks altogether. That's my addition. Back to the text. Low self-esteem, with inferiority, vulnerability and sustained feelings of shame, envy and humiliation, accompanied by self-criticism and insecurity, can make individuals with narcissistic personality disorder susceptible to social withdrawal, emptiness and depressed mood. Finally, that's a revolutionary part and reflects everything I've been saying in this channel for almost 15 years. High perfectionist standards are often associated with significant fear of exposure to imperfection, failure and overwhelming emotions. What does a DSM-5 text revision have to say about the development of narcissistic personality disorder and the course of the disorder, the trajectory? Here too, the text has been revised to reflect current knowledge. Narcissistic traits, says the text, may be particularly common in adolescence, but do not necessarily indicate that the individual will develop narcissistic personality disorder in adulthood. Yes, I've been saying it for many, many years. Adolescents are narcissists. People, infants at age two are narcissists. Healthy narcissism is crucial to separation, individuation and identity formation. The DSM continues, predominant narcissistic traits or manifestations of the full disorder may first come to clinical attention or be exacerbated in the context of unexpected or extremely challenging life experiences or crises. What I call hitting rock bottom. What kind of crisis, bankruptcies, demotions, loss of work or divorces suggests the DSM. In addition, says the DSM, individuals with narcissistic personality disorder may have specific difficulties adjusting to the onset of physical and occupational limitations that are inherent in the aging process. Tell me about it. However, life experiences such as new, durable relationships, real, successful achievements and tolerable disappointments and setbacks can all be corrective and contribute to changes and improvements in individuals with this disorder. So, what about the debate? There's a debate. Are narcissists only able? Is this a societal verdict? Does the diagnostic category of narcissistic personality disorder reflect social mores and therefore is not a clinical entity or is it real? So this is what the DSM has to say. Cultural-related diagnostic issues. Narcissistic traits may be elevated in social-cultural contexts that emphasize individualism and personal autonomy over collectivist goals. Compared with collectivist contexts in individualistic contexts, narcissistic traits may warrant less clinical attention or less frequently lead to social impairment. Here, I disagree with the DSM and I've been disagreeing with the DSM for decades. The locus of grandiosity can be individualistic but can be also collectivist. If you talk to a Japanese narcissist, he is not likely to brag of his own traits, accomplishments and behaviors, but he is likely to boast of the traits, accomplishments and behaviors of the company he works for or of his nation or of his family. The locus of grandiosity shifts from the individual to the collective but it is still pathological. What about suicide? Is it common? The DSM has this to say about association with suicidal thoughts or behavior. In the context of severe stress and given the perfectionism often associated with narcissistic personality disorder, exposure to imperfection, failure and overwhelming emotions can evoke suicidal ideation. They are referring actually to narcissistic modification. Suicide attempts in individuals with narcissistic personality disorder tend to be less impulsive and are characterized by higher lethality compared with suicide attempts by individuals with other personality disorders. In other words, the narcissist plans and then executes the suicide and he is hell bent and intent on accomplishing this goal, while the borderline for example uses suicide threats as a cry for help and attempts to attract attention and many of her attempted suicides fail. But it's very crucial to note that 11% of people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder end their lives successfully and that this figure is dramatically higher than among people with narcissistic personality disorder. Differential diagnosis. How can we tell narcissism from other personality disorders, especially other personality disorders in cluster B? Other personality disorders, says the DSM, may be confused with narcissistic personality disorder. Do you hear that? All you self-styled experts online with and without academic degrees, you're making a hash of it. You're misleading your audience, conflating and confusing narcissistic personality disorder with antisocial personality disorder, psychopathy and so on. So the DSM harshly criticizes you indirectly. I repeat, other personality disorders, says the DSM, may be confused with narcissistic personality disorder because they have certain features in common. For example, grandiosity. Hello, grandiosity is common to psychopathy, narcissism and borderline, but not all psychopaths are narcissists. If you say that all psychopaths are narcissists, you have no idea you don't have the first inkling about narcissism or psychopathy. You're not an expert, you're a con artist. It is therefore important to distinguish among these disorders based on differences in their characteristic features admonishes the DSM. However, if an individual has personality features that meet criteria for one or more personality disorders, in addition to narcissistic personality disorder, all of these disorders can be diagnosed, and this is called comorbidity. The most useful feature in discriminating narcissistic personality disorder from histrionic, antisocial and borderline personality disorders, in which interactive styles are coquettish, callous and needy, respectively, is the grandiosity characteristic of narcissistic personality disorder. The relative stability of self-image and self-control, as well as a relative lack of self-destructiveness, impulsivity, separation in security and emotional hyperactivity, also help distinguish narcissistic personality disorder from borderline personality disorder. I will try to decipher this passage for you, because it's very crucial. They say that narcissists have a stable self-image. The grandiosity is there all the time, and that's very true. The grandiosity of the borderline fluctuates. The grandiosity of the psychopath is reactive. It becomes grandiose in certain situations, while the grandiosity of the narcissist is a background noise. It's white noise. It's always there. Additionally, says the DSM, the narcissist is less self-destructive, less impulsive, suffers less from separation in security or abandonment anxiety, and is less emotionally dysregulated, emotionally hyper-reactive than people with borderline personality disorder, and it's all very true, of course. The DSM continues, excessive pride in achievements, a relative lack of emotional display, and ignorance of or disdain for other sensitivities, help distinguish narcissistic personality disorder from histrionic personality disorder. Although individuals with borderline histrionic and narcissistic personality disorders may require much attention, those with narcissistic personality disorder specifically need that attention to be admiring. The individuals with antisocial and narcissistic personality disorder share a tendency to be tough-minded, glib, superficial, exploitative and unempathic. I want to clarify something here. The narcissistic supply, the attention can be positive or negative, but it should be admiring. You should be in, you should be ordered by the narcissist, AWED, ordered, but the narcissist should be perceived as awesome. Awesome for his notoriety and infamy and cruelty and sadism and fearfulness and so on, or awesome for his intelligence and accomplishments and altruism and so on. But always awesome, always adulated and admired for positive traits and behaviors as well as for negative traits and behaviors. The narcissist prefers to be feared and hated rather than be ignored, but the fear and hatred should be imbued with being awestruck, being fascinated and amazed by the narcissist. The DSM continues, however, a narcissistic personality disorder does not necessarily include characteristics of impulsive aggressivity and deceitfulness. You hear this? The narcissist is not necessarily deceitful. Narcissists don't gaslight. Psychopaths do. Jesus, what a mess people are making online. I'm especially furious at the egregious misrepresentations by people with academic degrees who know nothing about these disorders and pretend that they do and leverage their degrees. In addition, individuals, the DSM continues. In addition, individuals with antisocial personality disorder may be more indifferent and less sensitive to others' reactions or criticism. And individuals with narcissistic personality disorder usually lack the history of conduct disorder in childhood or criminal behavior in adulthood. Now, there are various considerations of mania or hypomania, bipolar, a staging bipolar disorder which imitates narcissism. There is an issue of substance use and how it affects narcissistic personality disorder. There is an issue of depression or persistent depressive disorder and how it manifests in narcissism, but I'm not going to all this now. I will continue the differential diagnosis part. It's F60.6, the code. The DSM says, in both narcissistic personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, the individual may profess a commitment to perfectionism and believe that others cannot do things as well as he can. In other words, he finds it difficult to delegate. However, while those with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder tend to be more immersed in perfectionism related to order and rigidity, individuals with narcissistic personality disorder tend to set high perfectionistic standards, especially for appearance and performance, and to be critically concerned if they are not measuring up to these standards. In other words, narcissists put an emphasis on appearance, obsessive-compulsive, place an emphasis on substance. Suspiciousness and social withdrawal advises the DSM, usually distinguish those with schizotypal, avoidant or paranoid personality disorder from those with narcissistic personality disorder. So, the others are suspicious and they withdraw socially. When these qualities are present in individuals with narcissistic personality disorder, they derive primarily from shame and fear of failure. Fear of having imperfections or flaws revealed the imposter syndrome. So, narcissists withdraw when they anticipate failure, modification, injury. They deeply ashamed of themselves. They have an internalized bed-object. They regard themselves as unworthy and inadequate and a walking-talking failure. Narcissism is compensatory, not happy-go-lucky, not daring-do. This is a psychopath. The DSM continues. Many highly successful individuals display personality traits that might be considered narcissistic. Only when these traits are inflexible, maladaptive and persisting, and only when they cause significant functional impairment or subjective distress, do they constitute narcissistic personality disorder. This is Lin-Sperry's distinction between narcissistic style and narcissistic personality and narcissistic disorder. The DSM continues. Grandiosity may emerge as part of manic or hypomanic episodes in bipolar disorder. But the association with mood shapes or functional impairments helps distinguish these episodes from narcissistic personality disorder. Narcissistic personality disorder must also be distinguished from symptoms that may develop in association with persistent substance abuse. Experiences that threaten self-esteem can evoke a deep sense of inferiority and sustain feelings of shame, envy, self-criticism and insecurity in individuals with narcissistic personality disorder that can result in persistent negative feelings resembling those feelings seen in persistent depressive disorder. If criteria are also met for persistent depressive disorder, both conditions can be diagnosed. This is something I've been saying for decades. Narcissists do experience depression, but it is reactive, and the environment triggers in them dysphoria and shame. I have a video dedicated to it, which I posted a few weeks ago. Those three weeks ago. What about comorbidity? The DSM says narcissistic personality disorder is associated with depressive disorders, persistent depressive disorder and major depressive disorder, anorexia nervosa, eating disorder and substance use disorders, especially related to cocaine. Coke. I would add alcohol, but that's more common in borderline. Histrionic borderline, antisocial and paranoid personality disorders may also be associated with narcissistic personality disorder. And now we come to the major breakthrough that didn't make it. This should have been what I'm about to read to you. This should have been the new diagnostic dimensions for narcissistic personality disorder. They are included in the alternative DSM-5 model for personality disorders. And here is what the DSM has to say about the alternative model. The alternative model says the DSM is provided as an alternative to the extant personality disorders classification in Section 2. This is a hybrid dimensional categorical model in Section 3, and it defines personality disorder in terms of impairments in personality functioning and pathological personality traits. The conclusion of both models of personality disorder diagnosis in DSM-5 reflects the decision of the APA Board of Trustees to preserve continuity with current clinical practice, while also introducing an alternative approach that aims to address numerous shortcomings of the approach in Section 2 to personality disorder. Okay, I'll try very hard to believe you. For example, in the approach in Section 2 continues the DSM, symptoms meeting criteria for a specific personality disorder frequently also meet criteria for other personality disorders, and other specified or unspecified personality disorder is often the correct, but mostly uninformative diagnosis in the sense that individuals do not tend to present with patterns of symptoms that correspond with one and only one personality disorder. That's the comorbidity problem. By the way, there's another problem, the polythetic problem. Since every five of nine criteria qualify you for a diagnosis, you and I can be diagnosed with the same personality disorder, but share only one diagnostic criteria. Your personality disorder diagnosis would rely on criteria one to five, and my diagnosis would rely on criteria five to nine. We could be as different as possible and yet be diagnosed with the same personality disorder, which is unconscionable. It's crazy. It's called the polythetic problem. The DSM continues in the following alternative DSM 5 model. Personality disorders are characterized by impairments in personality functioning and pathological personality traits. The specific personality disorder diagnosis that may be derived from this model include antisocial, avoidant, borderline, narcissistic, obsessive compulsive, and schizotypal personality disorders. This approach also includes a diagnosis of personality disorder traits specified. This is the approach of the 11th edition of the ICD. Such a diagnosis can be made when a personality disorder is considered present, but the criteria for a specific disorder are not met. So what is the alternative model for narcissistic personality disorder? By the way, you can find it in my book in the latest edition of Maligan Self-Love, Narcissism Revisited, and you can also find this text in the original DSM 5 text publication in 2013. So narcissistic personality disorder, the alternative model, specifiers. Typical features of narcissistic personality disorder are variable and vulnerable self-esteem, with attempts at regulation, through attention and approval seeking, and either covert, either overt or covert grandiosity. That's it. Covert narcissism has officially made it into the DSM 5. Congratulations! It's been 33 years in the making. The DSM continues, characteristic difficulties are apparent in identity, self-direction, empathy, and or intimacy as described below, along with specific maladaptive traits in the domain of antagonism. So here are the proposed diagnostic criteria according to the alternative model. A. Moderate or greater impairment in personality function manifested by characteristic difficulties in two or more of the following four areas. Area number one, identity, excessive reference to others for self-definition and self-esteem regulation, exaggerated self-appraisal, inflated or deflated or deflated or vacillating between extremes. Emotional regulation mirrors fluctuations in self-esteem. No core identity and narcissistic self-idealization versus self-devaluation, all described in my work decades ago. Area number two, self-direction, goal-setting based on gaining approval from others, personal standards unreasonably high in order to see oneself as exceptional or too low based on a sense of entitlement, often unaware of own motivations. Number three, so I want to make a distinction here, narcissists are self-aware in the sense that they are fully aware of what they're doing, their actions, but the DSM is right. They're not aware of why they're doing what they're doing, their motivations. Area number three, empathy, impaired ability to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of other people. Excessively attuned to reactions of other people, but only if perceived as relevant to self, over or under estimation of own effect on others. Number four, intimacy, relationships largely superficial and exist to serve self-esteem regulation, mutuality constrained by little genuine interest in others' experiences and predominance of a need for personal gain. Both of the following pathological personality traits should be present in a diagnosis suggests the DSM text revision. Number one, grandiosity and aspect of antagonism, feelings of entitlement either overt or covert, self-centeredness firmly holding to the belief that one is better than others, condescension towards others. Number two, attention-seeking and aspect of antagonism, excessive attempts to attract and be the focus of the attention of other people. Admiration-seeking, traits and personality-functioning specifiers may be used to record additional personality features that may be present in narcissistic personality disorder, but are not required for the diagnosis. For example, other traits of antagonism, examples, manipulativeness, deceitfulness, callousness are not diagnostic criteria for narcissistic personality disorder, but can be specified when more pervasive antagonistic features are present. And for the first time, the text uses the phrase malignant narcissism. That was first suggested in the 70s by Otto Kemper. They should take their time, the DSM committee. Other traits of negative affectivity, example, depressivity and anxiousness can be specified to record more vulnerable presentations of narcissism, covert narcissism. Furthermore, although moderate or greater impairment in personality function is required for the diagnostic of narcissistic personality disorder, a level of personality functioning can also be specified. In some ways, the text revision of the DSM-5 is uplifting. Covert narcissism made it finally into the text. Malignant narcissism made it finally into the text. The recognition that women are equally as likely to be diagnosed with NPD as men finally made it into the text. In this sense, the text is cutting edge. It recognizes that narcissism is a compensatory mechanism for a deep-set feeling of inferiority, inadequacy and shame. It's a major evolution in thinking. Similarly, the manual final recognizes that narcissists are not happy or lucky that they are ego-distancing and very, very likely to suffer from depressive disorders. These are all major changes in thinking and diagnostic presentation. And I welcome all of them, but it's not gone far enough. I feel let down by this revision because it did not go as far as the 11th revision of the ICD, recognizing that all personality disorders are facet of one underlying clinical entity. And that people, through the mechanism of collapse, gravitate from one personality disorder to another or from one manifestation of personality disorder to another. They can gravitate from overt or covert narcissism, somatic to cerebral narcissism, and they can also gravitate from narcissism to borderline and back. This comorbidity and the polythetic problem, they go to show that a categorical approach to personality disorders is absolutely, manifestly wrong. It's easier on the insurance companies and encourages, of course, the dispensation of psychopharmacological drugs. It enhances the profits of several industries, but it has nothing to do with reality. Men is not a category. Men is not a list of diagnostic criteria. Men is a river. Men is in flux. My model of self-states, based on Philip Bromberg's work and others, is much more adaptable, reflects much more reality. The DSM-5 in short is counterfactual and that's a great pity because they've almost made it. They almost got there and at the last moment they chickened out. Maybe that in itself should be a new disorder, DSM committee membership disorder. How about that? They have pathologized almost everything else from coffee drinking to the Internet. Why not procrastination, avoidance and fearfulness in the face of industries like the insurance and pharmacological industries? I think it should qualify as a disorder. What say you members of the DSM steering committee? Thank you for listening and as I said, this is the first in three. There will be another one on borderline and another one on antisocial in due time. If you stick by me, are faithful and loyal and suffer my narcissism to its extreme. You had been warned.

Our next job is to assign the individual spin systems to specific residues along the polypeptide chain. So, now this is done from the nosy spectrum. How? Let us look at this here. Here we have the polypeptide chain running from the N terminal to the C terminal here. So, this is residue I NHC alpha CO, NHC alpha CO, NHC alpha CO, NHC alpha CO and that. We have written here about 4 residues, 4th residue up to the NH1 is written and the same thing continues elsewhere also. Now, what does the nosy we make use of the nosy spectrum here to identify the correlations between the individual residues and this the nosy spectrum as I showed you the cross peaks will depend upon what is the distance between the 2 protons. So, we will have to see what are the short distances between the protons along the polypeptide chain between the sequential residues or between short range residues. So, that is typically classically indicated in this slide there. So, this is again taken from the book of Vitric that is indicated here NMR of Proteins and Nucleic Acids. You can see here now there are some lines which are indicated by thick arrows and there are some which are indicated by dotted arrows. Now, what are these thick arrows indicating? The thick arrows indicating the near neighbor interactions here. So, let us say for example from the NH of the residue I plus 1, I see to the NH of the residue I and that is indicated as alpha n. From the NH I see also to the sorry NH to the alpha n and the NH to the NH of the previous residue this is indicated as dNn then you have NH to the beta protons this is indicated as d beta n. So, d beta n, alpha n, Nn these are the near neighbor interaction the sequential immediately after the next residue. Notice you do not see to the right side you only see to the previous residue. So, from the I plus 1 to I only you see therefore this provides your directionality whereas of course the Nn, Nn this connectivity this can go either way. So, this can go from here to here or it can go from here to here as well whereas the alpha n and the beta n these ones are only on to the residue which is previous to the amide proton which you are looking at. So, you will see I plus 1 to I only for the alpha n and to the beta n now and there are also other distances which are indicated by the this dotted lines. Let us look at those ones there now from this alpha proton and this is the really long chain one here alpha beta I plus 3 a residue which is so far away in the residue. You might see this one under certain circumstances I will show you where these ones will be seen. You can see from the alpha proton here to the NH of the residue which is I plus 2 you can see that one also. Then from this alpha proton there are three other ones which are going one goes to the alpha n I plus 3 NH of I plus 3 to shows to the alpha of I and similarly alpha n I plus 4 the NH of the fourth residue shows to the alpha of the I residue. So, this is there that is indicated by this symbols there alpha n I I plus 4 means N of I plus 4 to the alpha of I alpha and I I plus 3 mean N of I plus 3 or the amide proton amide proton of I plus 3 to the alpha proton of I and likewise then you have NN I I plus 2. NN I plus 2 means the two amide protons I and I plus 2 then you have alpha N I plus 2 there is N of I plus 2 to the alpha of I so these are the short distances which are indicated these ones are less than 5 angstroms and the same thing is listed here. So, at this depends now on the secondary structure in the polypeptide chain different segments of the protein chain will have different kinds of secondary structures. We discussed about the various structures earlier so what sort of a distances are present in these individual structures suppose I take the alpha helix then the alpha N distance is 3.5 alpha N I I plus 2 is 4.4 alpha N I 2 I plus 3 is 3.4 to I plus 4 is 4.2 and N is 2.8 this is very interesting see this is a very short distance and 2.8 is the short distance alpha N is 3.4 is the short distance for the other two are little longer. Now NN I I plus 2 is 4.2 and beta N is 2.5 to 4.1 this is a longer range here alpha beta I 2 I plus 3 is 2.4 to 4.4 so therefore depending upon what is the secondary structure if you have an alpha helix this is the kind of a distance is which are present. Now if you take the 3.10 helix this is very similar to this except that alpha N I I plus 2 is somewhat shorter which is 4.4 here and is 3.8 here and alpha N I 2 I plus 3 is very similar and you do not have this alpha N I 2 I plus 4 because it is a 3.10 helix and this distance is also similar NN is also similar and this is also similar this is also similar 2.5 and this one is also similar and 2.5 3.1 you may see this sort of a peak as well. So that is how you get these peaks in the helices now compared to that what are the kind of a distances you have in the beta structures if you have the anti-parallel beta strand you see alpha N distance is very short d alpha this is very only 2.2 strength therefore you will see this as a very strong peak and the NN distance is far so 4.3 and you will see the beta N distance also is a wide range 3.2 to 4.5 and what does this range come from this comes from the torsion angles along the side chain. So there is a variation in this distance because of the torsion angles in the side chain depending upon how the side chain torsion angles vary you will have a certain range of distances there but this is a very interesting distance if the beta is characterized very well by this alpha N distance and the beta parallel also has this very short distance and this one is slightly in this case this is better than this one there but other ones are also similar. So from this you cannot distinguish whether it is the parallel beta strand or the anti-parallel beta strand from this basis of this NOE is often this is difficult there. Now if you have a turn that is the turns also we come across and there you will have this distance is 3.4, 3.2, 3.6, 3.1 all of these are observable and this is a very interesting distance you have this 2.6 or 2.4 that is the NN distance. So the NN distance is present in this turn see this one is very similar to the helical regions there but this is not present in the case of the beta sheet the helical region you will find this and you will also see this in the turn there. And now beta type turn 1 we indicated that different types of turns and you will see that turn 1 has this characteristic features but the turn 2 has different features. This particular distance here is very short in turn 2 and this is more like the beta sheet beta strand anti-parallel beta sheet or parallel beta sheet this distance is very short in therefore that will discriminate between the 2 types of the turns in this structure. So and then you will also have this distance alpha n i i plus 2 this these are seen in the 3.6, 3.3 and you will not find this in the beta sheet structure. You may find sometimes in the 3.10 helix and you may not find it also in the alpha helix as well because the 4.4 is little longer compared to the this distance is there. But turn 1 and turn 2 you will find this distance very short and alpha n i 2 i plus 3 this is also observable 3.1 to 4.2, 3.8 to 4.7. So you will see this distinction is not very easy here from this but this is the very characteristic discriminating distance between the 2 structures. And with regard to this one here the n n distance, n n distance is much closer but that is not so in the case of the turn 2, turn 1 it is very similar very observable similar to the alpha helix but this one is not observable. So therefore you will have this sort of a distance is there. So 3.6 to 4.0 this is the beta n distance, beta n distance also will be very observable. This is a certain range there so you may see you may not see depending upon the side chain torsion angles wherever the side chain torsion angle is such that the distance becomes more than 4.5 angstroms you may not see it. So therefore these are not definitive that you will see that but where there is a clear short distance indicated those ones you will always see. So this is the kind of a distance pattern what we have and that is extremely useful in determining the structures. Now here is a typical example as to what sort of patterns you will get. If you have this cosy spectrum here you have this nosy spectrum will show you the sequential correlations there. These are the sequential ones immediately after and this range is for the amide protons to the alpha protons and then to the beta protons here until here this is the alpha and this is the beta and this is the one particular region which is taken to indicate what sort of peaks you will get. So here you will have you have the two peaks there one is to its own alpha this will be present in the cosy and here the sequential peak which is in the nosy spectrum. Again you have two peaks there alpha to its own alpha and then to the sequential same here same here and then of course here you see to the beta proton here as well. So and then here you will see to the beta proton here and this is of course a single peak here present and this is something different it is not coming from this NH proton but coming from somewhere else. And then you see this here or the alpha proton itself is shifted up field so much here and it can happen on the certain situations you will see the alpha proton itself is going so high and here it is alpha to the beta and then you have also to the two gammas here typically you will see such things in the long side chain ones which are there. Now using this one can do a sequential walk along the polypeptide chain. This is chemically indicated here suppose you have a helix we said the NN distance is very small we have the N this is the diagonal here the diagonal these are the amide protons the four amide protons there and you see the connections you have a connection here and you have two connections there and two one connection here. So therefore you can see you can walk along the helix in this manner the helix is indicated there. So you can walk from one residue to another residue let us say you start from here you go from this to this that is here and then you go from here to here so this is connected to this okay then you go from here to here this one then you go from here to here then you go from here to here. So you see this is the connection that is happening over the entire term the NH protons are here this is the NH-NH connectivities as I said the NH-NH connectivities do not have a directionality so they can go from one residue to the next residue in a particular direction any direction it can go so we cannot say here we are going from I to I minus 1 to I minus 2 and I minus 3 we may going I to I plus 1 I plus 2 I plus 3 as well so it can happen that way. So a particular place you will see two cross peaks there what is for example if I take here why are we seeing two cross peaks there we are doing the two cross peaks because it is showing to both the directions if I see here there are two cross peaks one here one there this is in one direction this is in the other direction okay so that is how you are establishing these connections walking along the polypropylene the lines which are drawn are showing a walk in one particular direction and this additional peak which is present here this actually is going in the other direction so that is how you get this in the helix you will get this sort of connections in the polypropylene chain. Now on the other hand if you look at the NH to the alpha proton area this is alpha proton area okay NH protons here and this is the alpha proton here okay now let us look here so this is let us say we start from here you see the suppose this is the self peak of the particular residue here and from this alpha I to the I minus 1 I minus 1 you go to the I minus 1 NH then you have the sequential to I minus 2 then you go to the self of I minus 2 then you go to the sequential to the I minus 3 then you go here I minus 3 then to the self this is the self then you go to the sequential of i minus 4, so you go like that. Now you can either level it as i i minus 1 or i minus 2 or i plus 1 i and things like that. So that is the sequential connections which are shown in this cases here. So this is i plus 1 to i then to its own then to this say this one and you can go on from this to this and then you can go on. That is what is shown as the sequential connectivity in the alpha NH, alpha region there. Now this actually shows the kinds of short distances you will get in the experimental spectrum considering a certain stretch of amino acid residues. Let us say you have this stretch of amino acid residues 1 to 7. There are 7 residues which are let us say you consider this here and you see what sort of peaks you will get. If it is a alpha helix you will see from here to here there are three continuous peaks which are present there from here to here, here to here and here to here. These continuously three peaks alpha n i to i plus 4 how many will be there i to i plus 4. So that is from this to you are from here to here the next one there and the next one there. So this is the four residues which are present there. So therefore in the similarly alpha beat i to i plus 3 how many you will see i to i plus 3 how many you will get in the 7 residue stretch you will get 4 of them. So you will get 4 peaks there and alpha n i to i plus 3. So you will get again 4 peaks just as you have here 4 peaks you will also have 4 peaks there for the alpha helix and if you take nn i to i plus 2 then you will have 5 peaks there. That is indicated here you have 5 peaks there. The range I mean the what is shown here is from what residue to what residue for example this one is 5 to 7 then it is 4 to 6 then it is 3 to 5 then you have 2 to 4 then you have 1 to 3. So these are the i to i plus 2. Similarly you can draw these lines for these individual residues. So this is i to i plus 3 means 7 to 4 6 to 6 to 2 i plus 3 5 6 7. So i to i plus 3 7 6 5 4 so you go from this. So 7 to 4 6 to 3 5 to 2 and 4 to 1. So that is how you get this 4 here and even when you have i to i plus 4 you will have 7 to 3 7 to 3 6 to 2 5 to 1. So that is how you will have 3 peaks there. So in the same manner you can also draw these ones all these peaks you must have in order to be able to conclude what sort of a helix you had. You must have this whole stretch of connectivities in your nosy spectrum. You must after you establish the individual spin systems you must be able to establish these connections from the nitrogen the amide protons to the various side chain protons or the backbone protons. So for the 3 tan helix you will have this sort of a pattern. For the turn you will have this sort of a pattern. See in the turn 1 and turn 2 these are quite distinct. So these are extremely useful. These patterns are extremely useful to be able to identify what sort of a turn you have and these are two additional terms which are slight variations of these ones there and you have a half term. So these are slight variations of these terms but nonetheless you have this distinctive patterns here for the secondary structures and whether the beta ones you will have you will have only this NN connectivity there and of course you will have the sequential alpha n that is not that is not you will have the beta you will have the alpha n sequential connectivity is there. This is the whole range of sequential connectivity will be present in the case of beta anti-parallel as well as parallel beta sheets you will have these ones there and of course you will also have these ones in these areas because you will see this sequential connectivity is sequential connectivity these are the immediate neighbors. These are for the immediate neighbors and you will have these ones there and this is how you obtain the sequence specific assignment first. From the immediate neighbors you obtain the sequence specific assignments and there will be peaks left in your spectrum. On the basis of that you try and identify these sort of connections to figure out what sort of a secondary structure the particular stretch of amino acid residues belongs to. So you first establish these ones there all the sequential connectivities and after that you look for additional peaks which are present in the nosy spectrum they will establish these very characteristic peaks for the secondary structures for the alpha helix the beta 3 tan helix the turn 1 and so on. Now this is a typical nosy spectrum of a protein this is a spectrum which is relatively old because this is not a very good spectrum but nonetheless this is one of the very early ones and therefore it is important to show this but it shows the connections between the different residues. It brings out the point as to what sort of a peaks we will see we will see the long side chain ones or the long range connectivities that is the point which you are trying to make here. So we already talked about the short range ones and the near neighbour ones now we talk about the long range ones. Suppose you have a polypeptide chain which is going like this and you have A, B, C, D protons here and the A proton chemical shift is here the B proton chemical shift is there C proton chemical shift is here and D proton chemical shift is here. Notice we have already identified the chemical shifts of the individual protons through the sequential connection procedure. So now you show which ones are where any other peak which is present we must be able to establish a correlation between the two protons which are connected by that peak because you already have all the assignments not only the backbone but also the side chains. All the side chain spin systems and the assignments are made therefore we will be able to identify those peaks which are present. Now what sort of a peaks we will get for the long range interactions. Long range suppose the polypeptide chain folds in this manner. The say in elongated manner it is written that way extended manner. Now suppose the polypeptide chain folds in this manner then what happens is these two protons come close by in space. When that is the case then you will see a cross peak here between those two protons. If the polypeptide chain folds like this then these protons come close by in space therefore you will see a cross peak between these two. On the other hand if it folds like this you will see the short distance between these two protons and you may see a cross peak between these two. So these are three different types of the structures leveled as i, j, k and depending upon what is the nature of the fold in the polypeptide chain you will see peaks between different protons along the polypeptide chain. Therefore we call this as a fingerprint of the structure of the molecule. The nosy spectrum is called as the fingerprint of the structure of the molecule. Now another point you notice here is that the different peaks are different intensities. Why is it so? Because the distances are different. Although the protein is folding and coming to a certain distance there but the distance themselves may be varying. It may be 2.5 angstroms or 3.5 angstroms or 4.5 angstroms. So depending upon the way the protein is folding you may have different distances and you will see therefore different intensities for the different cross peaks but that is a structural information. We can extract this structural information and use this to calculate the structure of the molecule and this is what is the step which is indicated in this slide. Now you have once you have the particular intensity what we do is we convert that distance convert that intensity into a distance and we will say this distance must lie between these two limits. This is the lower limit and this is the upper limit. We do not say that the particular distance has to be exactly 2.5 and 2.6 angstroms like that. We will say the distance Rij this is between the two protons i and j should be between this lower limit and this lower limit. It may be between 2.5 to 3 angstroms or 3 to 3.5 angstroms. You can classify this distance ranges depending upon the confidence we have with respect to the intensity measurements. There can be errors in the intensity measurements and that will determine what sort of a range you want to specify. If it is a weak peak then you will generally want to give a longer range like 3 to 4 angstroms or 3.5 to 4.5 angstroms. That is if the peak is weak but if the peak is stronger then you will narrow down the distance range. It must be between the range of 2.5 angstroms 2.5 to 3 or 3 to 3.5 and so forth. So you collect a larger number of such distances. So in a polypeptide chain if it has 100 amino acid residues you will have thousands of peaks. Of course several of them will be short range several of them will be sequential and there will be many other ranges but however we include here all the distances not only the sequential the short range ones and the long range ones all are included. Now what is the next step? The next step is we want to calculate a structure which is consistent with all these interpreted on distances. These are called as a distance restraints and your structure must satisfy these distance restraints. An initial model may not satisfy all of these. You will have to optimize your structure so that the distance constraints are satisfied. So therefore what is done is you define an energy function here and which contains 2 parts. One is this EF part this is the standard one which contains all the short range distance the stereo I mean the steric interances and things like that. There should be no steric contacts there. So therefore you take care of all of those bond angles, bond distances and things like that. All of those included in this particular function here and these are the basic energy determining term and then the NOE distance which you calculate this is included as a separate potential function here E energy E NOE and that is defined in this manner. These are defined with these harmonic potentials here and you have a particular force constant here. You define it as a spring. You have a violation of upper lower bound is given by this Rijl minus Rij to the square it is the force constant here and this is the violation of the distance for the upper limit. So Rmn to the Rmn is the upper limit variation here. So you run this through the entire set of distance constraints you have got. If all the distances are satisfied this NOE will come to 0 and this is what you want to optimize. You want to optimize your model such that this E NOE comes down to 0. Often you may not achieve that complete 0 but it will converge to a particular small value and that is when you can actually say okay why this is acceptable range. That also determines to what accuracy your structure is determined to what confidence level you have the structure and how much are the statistics of the distance is violated in your structure and how much is the range of the violation. And this is your document in a particular kind of a table. You say okay NMR restraints are in the structure calculation. You have the intra residue distance is 419, sequential distance is 475, medium range i minus j less than 5 angstrom these are 302, long range i minus greater than 5 this is 407. You have hydrogen bonds also indicated as a distance and therefore you have a total distance range of 1655. You also have dihedral angle restraints this actually comes from your coupling constant measurements you have these ones there and these are the other ones which are with regard to the geometry of the ones you have the bonds and the angles and other improper distances these ones are also indicated. Now at the end of the day after you have done these calculations you have to see how much is the variation violation are they all satisfied or all they are within the certain range RMST from experimental restraints you see the violations are very very small and if this is the kind of range what were then you say okay it is acceptable. So you consider the RMST for all what happens is typically you may not find one structure you may find a set of structures typically you may find about 5 to 10 structures which satisfy these and there is a certain why there is a range of these violations there. So therefore you put this plus minus and you have all the backbone atoms if you consider what is the RMST among these different structures you have selected your 10 structures and for the residue is 2 to 95 how much is the variation among the backbone atom positions and that you say you calculate the RMSTs all heavy atoms is this much okay and then of course you have to verify this your phi psi torsion angles you measure from this structure in terms of the Ramachandran plot. So you have how much is the variation the most favored regions is 74.5 additionally allowed regions 2 23 generously allowed regions 2.0 this allowed regions is 0.5 therefore this structure is an acceptable structure because it satisfies the Ramachandran plot okay this is typically the way you define it okay. Now in practice how we actually do the so called distance geometry algorithm which we discussed earlier also in some way that you start from a polypeptide chain structure which is similar typically like this okay you start from many different initial structures because you do not want your calculation to be biased by the choice of your initial structure okay. Then you have this 6 different initial structure for a particular protein and you go through the various steps of calculations intermediate steps here and you see how the protein is folding and then you see in the end all these structures are coming out to be similar okay there are many structures which are overlaid here and they are all coming very similar and therefore the RMSTs of these are very very small and therefore you see your distance constraint is quite good and you are able to obtain a unique structure from these constraint set okay. So I think now we can stop here we go into the next class with regard to the more complicated structure determinations more complex proteins stop here.

My name is Jimmy his name is Jake and this is the weekly dumb our first on location episode It's beach week for John boy media. So we're at the beach Jake. How you doing? We are at the beach We are live from punta Vallarta Aka Jersey Jersey Shore you love the Jersey Shore and the depiction that it actually brings to the good people of New Jersey, right? I love the Jersey Shore. I the TV show we shouldn't have been allowed to be named that because people think of that and Beautiful family town of nice beaches and wholesome people, but there is an eastbound wind right now That means bugs are coming from the mainland Which sucks? Okay, let's get into it first thing we're gonna do is talk about the sports Jake. What happened? It says here's something about MJ's underwear Jim it's a little Jim Jim sorry, I've been in Jersey for a while Jim. It's a legendary. We can't Here at the Jersey Shore and Michael Jordan. He's selling his under-roos. Well, he's not selling someone selling his under-roos. Yes Yeah, it's actually change for me Yeah, it's being sold by a family member of a personal security security security guard and They say that the underwear is bearing signs of definite use. What do you think that means you think skid mark first? Yeah, maybe tiny little P drizzle stain, but they said that the seams are just a little teared up You can't say the phrase it appears that the underwear were used because that has one implication Can I ask you a quick question? Yeah, what's up with skid marks? We've got everyone here someone in my family growing up Yeah, I've seen skid marks and I didn't get it like how does that happen? You didn't get it I don't get how you get skid marks. You've never had skid marks You've lit a skid markless life of like shit. No like brown skid marks and white underwear. I don't get it I think that's just you shitting yourself. Well, we're in Sometimes it's my bait question. You know, I'm talking how do you get with that? He get brown skid marks I mean you should I think I think skid marks are unrelated to that. Well, anyway, the the opening bid was $500 oh This is sad. This is sad. I thought we were gonna be no. Oh, I thought we're gonna be in like the high thousand. No It's a really sad story. Oh, no, just pay your security. I mean if I'm buying those underwear I think I'm wearing them what I thought this was like trophy case stuff Someone's gonna buy him for $500 and just say I'm good. That's just in my rotation So that's the the first sports story of the show and we'll jump to almost a breakdown and Jim This is baseball. We love baseball. We've got baseball people here. There's a baseball in your hand There's a baseball in my hand and Jim. There was a special play the other day. They went down Errol Robinson Errol Robinson one of my friends knows him. She knows him. She's not on camera though She said she's very close friends. No, it's a really cool play he's run he's in shortstop the ball is flared down the left field line and he's running he's running and The he doesn't even sometimes they reach up with the glove and then snag it with the bear hand He never even reached up. So he just ran in the wind blew it from here to here Bear hand snag comes up with it so smooth and shows it right away like he Claims up with it. You think he thought he was gonna catch it. No, I think very much just that's a very classic I'm not gonna catch a case in point $3,000 fine to get that ball glittering and we're gonna go on the beach and we're gonna try and recreate the catch Good job by Errol Robinson job Errol Robinson good friend of Sam It was a shortstop makes that catcher that ball drops and it's no one else's fault And if it drops we wouldn't even be here you want to move on to not sports I do want to move on to not sports but speaking of not sports gyms. You ever have something not dropped for you Yeah, get Roman because me and Jim. We actually had the same camera set up for something totally personal that we were doing Mm-hmm. It didn't happen. Yep, cuz we didn't have our Roman with us on the Jersey Shore get Roman comm slash dumb $15 off $15 off get Roman ready month Roman ready. So when you set up your cameras and you Not sports not sports. Oh, I've got more sports more sports first. Let's go to more sports Zach, we're gonna go to more sports first more sports college football is underway. Let's clap at least Unless you're a college football Oh, it's football season both balls over eat a bug enjoy all the sports you eat bugs calm That's my most recent recent purchase. We'll put in a link two dollars a month I own that now guys put in a link. We it's a company. Well, I paid for my personal card Well, that's fucked up as we said we were getting it together College football is back. I ate a bunch of mayonnaise Dude he ate so much mayonnaise because it was the Duke Mayo ball My biggest gripe with this video Jake is that his friend next to him Yeah, is eating something else, but it's food and his friend is stuffing his face Like look at both of us. Aren't we crazy? No, it's like you can't think that you're part of what he's doing because he was scooping Mayo in his mouth Like this you just need to clap for your friend. Yes, Jake has a question Do you think he's a mayo eater? Do you think he's just an eater? How do you think this manifested and I know that's your favorite word? It was the south, right? Mm-hmm They like Mayo in the south. Let's take a vote. Do they like Mayo in the south cuz Midwest hand up for yes Midwest has to be the premier Mayo our crew is currently we were four out of five thumbs up They definitely like Mayo, but I don't know if this was like, you know, Indiana I think that's more Mayo City and maybe Nebraska big hug over here and they just go No, they're not hugging. They're not hugging. They're never hugging. That was so sad. She ran out like they're not hugging They're excited to see them. They're not hugging Wow, Jim They went up to the front row where they knew the biggest college idiots were they want to get on TV and just said Here's a jar of Mayo do something with it. I like that. He didn't bring it in because I have a question Yeah, I don't know Dukes Mayo. I only know The H1 I know the H what is it? Helmins. Helmins. It's the only Mayo And I don't know Dukes Mayo not sports. Oh, this is my favorite story of the whole thing Let me put my phone down not sports is the best story of It's the best story up your favorite talking about the Randolph County jail They've released the wrong inmate. We've seen these stories before on our radio show We talk about these stories a lot John Boyn Jake Ray. It's arguably the thing you and I are most aligned on that these are stories Are good that they're good and if society makes the mistake like that's not on the bad guy Check out this story They released the wrong inmate because this inmate and the one that was supposed to get released switch cells They asked like a guards permission to do so, but it never got reported. Obviously they share the same Identification height hair color eyes. This is a sneaky Pete situation or these two teamed up There's a sec. This is step one of the movie. This is act one There's an act two and then eventually they'll get caught But there's a heist or a plan or something in the works Do you have them as a team or do you have one just outsmarting? I don't know. I haven't outsmarted. Yeah, maybe you're getting released from jail You don't risk moving Anything yeah, I think I'd remind everybody around me who I am for the like upcoming month But yes, there's a little wrong woman's out and then the story gets even better because The head of security for the jails first name is sheriff So that's his actual first name. You didn't just read the article and it's a sheriff Wilson Sheriffs aren't heads of security at jails are sheriffs are people named sheriff if your nickname is sheriff and Your head of security out of jail. You have to kind of drop that right you're not the sheriff You would like basically report to the sheriff It'd be like if your nickname was president and then you took an internship at the White House No, that'd be cool. Everyone would like that kid. No, I wouldn't your name's president. You were at the White House shitbag Me doesn't Jake look like he wrestled an alligator once It's the employee of the week. It's the employee of the week the employee not a sheep Well, one of them is kind of a sheepish option. I don't know where you're going I was gonna give you the nod this week me no no not you not to like pick I was gonna give it to our dogs, right?

We are still on air. Good afternoon and welcome back to the touch line. My name is Max Oluwaseke. This afternoon we catch up with Paul Bitoka, a renowned volleyball coach now in acting capacity as the tactician for the national women's team, Malkia Strikas, and he did tremendously well overseas with the Rwandese national team. Getting full support of Paul Pagame, the president of the Republic of Rwanda, and I'm going to start with that question. Do you think it's high time we can get support from the president here if our sport has to grow? Yes, I think it is possible because the first time we visited the state house when we were going for the flak off to Morocco, I personally greeted him and I told him I'm back from Rwanda and he was surprised. He didn't know that I was in Rwanda, so I got blessings and I think yesterday, PS himself said that he's looking forward to request president to give me the contract as a coach of Malkia Strikas. So that means we are talking of the two presidents who are giving me the blessings. You had hinted of your exit from the scene of being the tactician of Malkia Strikas saying that probably in the future I will offer an advisory role. Do you think the intervention of PS Ambassador Kirimi Kaberia might enable you to rescind your earlier decision? For sure, when I came back from Rwanda, it was about what I was coming to do. I didn't expect to be the coach for the women. I was thinking that I'm coming into the Kenyan Folafederation in different capacity. So I told you earlier that I'm planning to have the national league to be played inside a youth and junior to be introduced in men and women. Unfortunately they called me and being called by the government to assist a team all the time I'm always ready and I took over the Malkia Strikas and helped them for these two months. When I came back I told them that it seems now it is like a job and we have to sit down if I have to do something with you. I wanted to be a consultant or to give them advice and to help them in a different way but we met two days ago with the president of the Kenyan Folafederation and also the PS was with us and they are looking for they saw that there is something that has changed from the team and the results is coming in. They felt that I should continue as the coach so that's why we are still negotiating and I think we will finish soon. Fredopenda, I know you are an ardent lover of volleyball as a sport and you are keenly following the proceedings of FIVB World Cup in Japan. Kenya managed to pick a win against Cameroon but the most important thing the learning cup from the championship was the coming out of young talent Sharon Chepchumba starring in the entire championship. What do you think the realisation of new talent to replace the aging Genwa Shuja Netwaja Masimoim is more important than the results? Exactly, we call it the change of God, old God. When we have the new talent as we have been discussing with the guru himself Paul Bitok is the most important thing, the most positive thing that maybe I know as he was saying when he was coming back he was saying that he had some ideas that he needed to help them maybe now he can tell us because you need to have a system to be able to get these results and the new talent. Now it's up to him now to explain to us maybe he has a vision what are the strategies maybe Mr. Paul Bitok that you were thinking of now getting the new talent into the limelight of the nation First of all we have a problem of basics you always hear that we are problem of reception, problem of blocks, service this one is coming out of what we are doing every day as a Kenyan football federation I myself retired in 2004 as a player we used to play Eldoret, Kisumu, Nakuru and we are still doing the same I thought I was talking to the chairman I told him we have to change, we have to play indoor we have problem of reception because we are playing our matches out of the arena we must use indoor facilities if possible and one way we must introduce the league to be played indoor so that every day they are training indoor and also playing their matches indoor and the challenge was the sponsorship and I have gone ahead and requested a few companies and they are willing to help us and very soon we are going to announce the sponsor for next year the other thing that we are trying to come up now is the youth and junior program as you are talking about the older players being there for a very long time it's the right time now to have the youth and junior participating in the competition there was the world championship in Egypt last month Kamerun and Egypt were representing Africa we are the African champion and we are not representing Africa in the world level when it comes to youth and junior so there is something wrong now our men's team they are nowhere because we have no program for the youth and junior and I believe that if we start such programs it will bring back our men's team and also give us more chances for the women adapting the right basics when it comes to the senior level we reached there, we have good scores with big teams we reached 22 but because we have not got in reception or we didn't practice when we were young so the other team will take advantage and they will finish them much so all the time we are about to win but we are not winning because there is something lacking and as he said that now it's do you think our facilities in the Kenyan in the Kenyan environment have been a major major undoing a major undoing to us as compared to our competitors outside there because you've mentioned about the Indo facilities and is it high time now Kenyan teams can start getting exposed to such a well equipped facility so that when they are participating in overseas championships it's not a strange thing they are encountering you see we have these facilities it's only the format that we are using which is a problem if we had introduced Indo arenas or Indo league we could have already identified many Indo stadiums here I visited several when I was giving out a proposal I went to Moya base there is a very beautiful gymnasium there Parkless Bank in sports club there they have one we have Nyaya stadium it is only the scoreboard which is hanging in the middle of the code which should be removed and put aside and then we can continue using the Nyaya stadium we have Katharani so that means we are not lacking facilities it's only the format that we need to change not having our competition being played in different region and it is possible also to have in our counties when I introduced the same system in Rwanda we had only one gymnasium in Amauro stadium but as we are talking now there are four which has been built because the teams which are participating from the district level they have already built their own and out of this President Esexalins Paul Kakami decided now to build the bigger one which he launched last month and it was full to capacity of 10,000 he was regretting that he should have built maybe 20 to accommodate the people who are now enjoying the facilities of INDO so this INDO can generate also money because people will be paying to come in so that means when you are an host team you will still generate some money for your team so it is a right time for us to change and also to change the leap time format we have to change but the time of playing for the national team and also club level is different FIVB have put it clear in October to May is for club level and from May to September or October is a national team assignment so we have to differentiate the two and to give chance also the club players who have been paid by club but they are all the time with the national team and they are not playing for their clubs you have spent better part of your career in terms of coaching in Rwanda besides facilities and even goodwill commitment dedication from the government through the president himself Paul Kagami what else can Kenya learn from fellow East African compatriots in terms of growing the game back home in Rwanda minister of sports they are the sponsor of the national team you find here most of the federations they depend on other sponsors to come in to help them because minister of sports maybe they will give small amount as part of their sponsor to the national team but I am very happy before going to Morocco peers came to come and he was talking of the new system that he was trying to introduce the hotels for the national team allowances of the players to be put in the account of individual not someone preparing the money for the team and this is what has been in Rwanda for the last 10 years there when I was in Rwanda when it comes to national team a national coach because most of the coaches in Rwanda are foreigners and I was the only African coach who was coaching there and you just give out your program 21 days before the competition there is an hotel for the national team you just go and check in facilities for the court to go and look for money to pay Kassarani to use when it comes to national team arena is free for the national team so anytime that you want to train there is a facility for the national team most of the time we have to call a press to come and help us we have been locked out of Kassarani things like that so these are things which we have to change also in Kenya to allow all national team assignment to be covered by the minister of sports I know coach would agree with us that all the local tacticians who have served in overseas leagues find it lucrative and they can't come back what informed you are coming back is it giving back to the society and serving the community is it patriotism that was the driving factor I think because for sure I know Rwanda it has full privileges I really made an history in Rwanda because it was the only coach who managed to stay there for more than 2 years because the contract you signed with Rwanda you have to achieve if you don't achieve you have to get the letter of going back to your country and I thank God that I sacrificed a lot and I managed to do my best and I realized that after doing all my effort and good results from youth, junior, beach volleyball I said there is a foundation for them I have left legacy I have to go back home I need also to give back home something and that's why I was coming back home here not as a coach but to be advisor consultant or being one of the leaders to bring in my experience I played in Tunisia 4 years I was in Croatia for 4 years I have been in Rwanda I have good experience to give back the community I went to school in Eldoret I have now 12 years below who are training volleyball and also athletics so I want to lead and using my experience now to give to the nation not only to myself in Eldoret I think I will be one of the parents because Ravel, the young one who is watching might be passionate about volleyball and I will be enrolling him soon hopefully you want to be exorbitant to charge me more As long as he is tall and qualified to be one of the big players So young people stand at the tender edge at tender edge because my coaching career started when I was in Tunis my coach was a teacher and when they were in PE time you could send me some of the kids to come and play with me I could train them so I realized that those kids now they were the ones who are playing the national team of Tunisia and I say to myself give back to the community in Sima village and that's what I'm starting now When you were talking you mentioned about beach volleyball where do you place beach volleyball in the Kenyan sport? There is nothing which is impossible when I started this in Rwanda I realized that indoor the other countries are already very far but in beach volleyball started in many of the countries so I started with Rwanda in 2013 it took me only 3 years to become African champion Rwanda has been ranked first for the last 7 years in the women and men in that position The last competition that we participated in Africa Cup of Nations with me I won the women and I was second to Morocco and we qualified for the world championship which was in Germany it was unfortunate that I didn't participate with them in that competition because my contract was ending in June and the competition was in July so Rwanda they don't have beaches here we have Indian Ocean we have we are using artificial we brought sand and we started and became African champion most of the time they were writing stories about us this country of 1000 hills African champion in beach volleyball I had a chance also this year before the Moroccan trip before they were appointed me I was working with Patrick Owino with beach volleyball girls and I was trying to help them and I was very happy that they came second in this competition and I hope they will qualify for the Olympics next year I remember interviewing Waitaka Kiyoni the current president of Kenya Volleyball Federation some time back and why the male counterparts have not been performing very well both at the continental and international stages and probably the reason was that women and in particular Malika strikers do get good facilitation from even the continental body CAVB and like men I don't know whether that remains the reason for you I don't think so because when I started working with Rwanda national team I pushed the men side until we were beating Cameroon who were ranked number 3 and it's only that we started with youth and junior with the same age group that we managed to be we were ranked 4th in Africa after beating Cameroon though Cameroon was ahead of us I managed to beat Cameroon and Cameroon was participating in the world championship and you can imagine I started in second school since if we can have those youth and junior program we can bring men up to the same level when we were in Kassarand this year for son 5 Kenya played so well against Egypt they took one set there is one set they were leading 24-20 to get to the two sets today as we are talking Egypt have won two matches in the world cup the same same group which Kenya was about to beat so it's just a matter of giving them chance giving them sponsorship and they will reach there policies, systems in terms of structures at the machinani because you run a very successful championship in Amako volleyball tournament with good sponsor on board how is it like at the local level in terms of talents and especially in schools because I have covered Kenya sport secondary school games and there is immense potential in Kwanzaan in Malawa for sure school association they are doing great job it is even federation they are depending on them and I have visited several areas since I came and I'm telling you there is great potential in machinani and what I'm afraid is that these big schools that they are now the champion in East Africa or in our country they are going to a certain area to bring in players if they don't develop their own players then you will find that in future we will only have the players coming from the same region I remember one time when we were grouting the players in 2006 the group of Washu, Wangeshi we were going up to Tetu high school to select some players but now if you don't go to Rift Valley or Western then there is no any other player that you can get from Central Machakos and you find now those schools are shining 99% all those girls are coming from the western or Rift Valley it's about to naja those students who are in that school not to go to Rift Valley to poach or bring them to your school I think we can develop anyone this year as a Kishi school won the school competition but 85% of the same students they come from my village so it is affecting those students who are coming from Kishi the locals who could have gotten an opportunity and they have talent it's only chance they believe in what we have but as we just provide them with the net and the ball they are always all the time they are playing I think Fredopenda with your financial muscles and considering that you come from those areas of Kishi now that they are poaching other students from other schools to shine for them it's high time you pioneer an initiative where you have to embrace your very own actually I remember when we were in high school not even in volleyball even in football schools used to go to poach students from somewhere and they can come and shine for their schools but as as Paul Bitoko is saying it's a disadvantage actually to the locals and we should now come up with the measures to ensure that the locals also get the same chance to shine and as Bitoko was saying he wanted to come back in for consultancy really where he can give advice so in such a scenarios which advice can you give to these schools in order to help the local talent not to go outside and poach other students you see now we must have excellent centers in each region I will give you an example when I was in Rwanda I had three centers for men and three centers for boys there is a primary school competition I could go there and have their names after data of all the student at that category and then I convinced their parents to take these children to certain school and I could go around one week to train them in those schools and this is where now coming in why we should have a national coach which has a contract because you will have time to move around and to monitor and to help and advise those coaches what to do now here our scenario now the coach of the club is being appointed to come to the national team then down there there is no one who is following what they are doing so the player will come when they are 17 or 20 years they have their own style of jumping they have their style of putting their hands on the movement it becomes very difficult when it comes to the eye level so a federation must come up structure on how to develop up to those schools they must have coaches who have studied how to deal with the young players not just leaving everything open that they will have one talent which is coming from nowhere to join the national team how was the experience in Japan during FIVB World Cup it was very interesting especially to other coaches they were surprised to see Africans have really improved they are playing more than vulnerable we could give them rough time remember when I went before 2011 or 2006 they could not even call for time out they could not even substitute their players but this time you could see the coaches who are really stressed when they were playing with us and they were even telling us that you have improved a lot your way of play is different before you could find three players they are running for one bowl even we could be taken to hospital because maybe you could not each condition I was very happy each time that when we have a press conference they are really thanking us congratulating us for what we are doing they were telling us if we continue the same then it is possible for them to lose to African countries they were surprised also with Chepchumba how she is so powerful they were admiring her wondering are you seeing white lifting and Chepchumba she has never even have this kind of program of strength training which we are introducing to her and I am very happy now three or four players have been invited to go to play in Europe for professional volleyball and is the position of technical director in volleyball I think the position was introduced three or two years but if you try to ask really the role of the technical director it is not clear so I think they should sit down and know what are the roles of the technical director is it for the Malkia strikers alone or together with men to work with schools to work with coaches only because there are different roles we need to sit down and come up with certain positions which are the right ones not just the name I know there is a burning question friend of Pendo would want to ask but he is shy I know coach dealing with these ladies is sort of a challenge how manageable do you overcome the challenges associated with dealing with young ladies, vibrant, robust pretty at the beginning when you have no experience maybe it can be challenging to you but to us we have been there for a very long time we take them as a professional work you have to respect your work it is the same as the way you are here you have to respect your colleagues this one helps a lot and when you take your workers in a professional way you will never go wrong but if you mix the two then at the end of the day no one will have results because the moment you mix with those things it will be a problem for the team and all the players now which way which way forward actually I was talking to Maxwell and I said there were rumors that Bitok is once out of coaching now he wants to go into consultancy but you have told us that there are negotiations between you and the federation and all that but now another question comes in if you are not able to agree on the coaching aspect what are your plans you know I was valued very well in Rwanda they gave me a very good contract they respected the contract I worked on it and it I developed developer in Rwanda now I came back here thinking of in a different way what I should give to the Kenyan developer federation now I have several things I have to do to earn a living I am not under any contract now they are world level now they are looking forward to be in the Tokyo Olympics that means there is a lot of time which will be taken if I am the coach to be with them what am I going to be earning if I am not with them I can do some other business or do my own things so it is a bit complicated to me as much as I wish to help them I also need to earn something out of it and I am saying this to help us also in the future so that we can have a neutral coach not coming from the club we must have the contract for the coach not only me the Malika strikers is a big team they are playing world level why government cannot give a contract to the coach why should we have a contract for the coach from the ministry of sports to only football or maybe in rugby if we are playing world cup world championship at this moment and they don't have a contract coach that means if we can have an international living coach having contract with the Kenya Kenyan team that means we can move to another level so all sports disciplines will be treated equally you imagine if I am a coach for KCB and coach for Pepline and I have a chance to promote my player from Kenya Pepline to win some competition as a club I will give chance to them so to have a neutral coach is very important and then there is also respect to the players because they are not favorizing any team even in training sometimes it is very difficult you push the player because I am not coming from your club then you are pushing me you are not pushing so on so it is the right time to have a neutral coach for the Kenya team it is always a pleasure speaking to you coach this particular after knowing it has been a fantastic show having pulled the acting tactician for the national women's volleyball team alkairstrikas now in negotiations with the government through minister of sports to see whether he will be given a full time contract to take charge of the national women's team and of course he has been formally at the Rwandese national team now back home to serve the community it has been a big pleasure having you and we shall be looking forward to hear from you soon thank you Fredo Openda it has been nice enjoying and getting seated closer to the coach exactly it has been awesome having the coach we have never met before this is the first time and I like the insights the view that he has for the vulnerable fraternity inside here and the thinking I like it definitely every Saturday 1 to 3 we talking matter sports and let's continue the conversation on social media handles at Waseke Maxwell at Osorobats at Y254 channel touchline Y254 don't go away of course the program continues keep enjoying and have a sporting weekend God bless you

Oh, there you have it. That face game. All right. It's ended in the... It's ended in the free put. You know what? It's a long season. I didn't even build on that. I honestly do. Look at the captains. That's not happy, though, is he? That's not happy. So there's the air. We're not bomb. No. We're not bomb and political. Which for some people is nivane. It's now time to take on Juventus 97, 2001. They've got the likes of Zidane, Del Piero, Inzaghi, Conti, Davids, De Shamps. It's a who's who of amazing footballers. There's three big mannetes there. De Shamps, Conti, Zidane, Inzaghi. Yeah. And they're all going to find themselves out of work very soon. We've made one change from the first game. We've dropped Andy Gray. We've bought Game Sharping. We want that little bit of height, don't we? That drops is a harsh weight. Rotated. Rotated. Rotated. I thought it done OK. Right, here we go. Oh, it's wet. Go to St Park in the rain. Come on.

Well, you have water save. All right. Better. What a team these have got, though. What a team this was. Here we go. Here we go. Oh, there's you. There's me. There's me. There's me. There's me. There's me. It's because you said there's you. Oh. Heard it out, and it was pathfanda now. No, it wasn't, he was. Yeah, it was. Oh, what a ball. That ball, you get clutching in there. I think we've all... I think we've all arrived. We've settled down. We've settled down, although I'm getting a few problems with the other kit. Great save. Great save. That's a stay big. Stay big. Stay big. Stay big. Great. This player's pulling into one kind of challenge. Oh, that's a ball. Go on. Into space. Throw it in. Throw it in. Last face goal of the season. It's Gary Linneke. Gary Linneke. Who else? Well, anyone else, really, because we don't score. It's Linneke. It was a great, bright look of him. Look at the head on there. Nothing like him. And there's the champ. Carrying the water. Carrying the water. Look at this. Carrying his fume. Look at this ball. Kill a ball at once with this. Just that first throw. He's trying to step out. And there it is. Whipped in low. Oh! Outside of the fort. He's just gone all nine, finishing. Come on, Bruce. Something to cling on to. For the 60 minutes. We're not going Sam Alladish. Everyone back behind the ball. What we have, we've got attacked. OK, she needs to make the run, son. Vandanao. Oh, classic. Vandanao and Rose. Oh, go on. Go on. She just kept her alive. No! Linneke. What a goal that would have been. I just needed to edit down. Look at this run. I needed it to be sharp. Look at that ball. That shattered your ventures. Linneke. Ah, neither. It needed to be running on to it. Don't leave a big hole. Oh. Big win. Oh! It's all right. That's a goal kick. I don't know. I don't know. I'm thinking he added it last. Is he going for that? Second. That's criminal. Come on, mate. Literally an injury attack. Keep them. Win it. Win it. Win it. Big win. Yes, Ricky Trevor. Win it again. Yes! Keep that. Good half. Good half. Good half, blue. Great first half of life. Can we do it? Can we protect it? Can we get the second? Can you, son? Come on, let's get this game killed off. Like what Marseille done to us in the first game. Hey! Have a win! Have a nice stay win! Play. Go on. Yes. Big digs, email. Come on, blues. Let's get that second. I've gone. I've gone. I've gone. Get out of my way. Get in the middle. Get in the middle. I'm going. It's Sheedy. There's the ball cultured. Ah! He missed it. Ah! I want a ball. Ah! Ah! Left foot wand of Sheedy. Pickling it. Get out. Ah! Did he miss? Ah! It's fractions. Can you, can you get in? Can you get in? Can you find me? Can you find me? I've found you. Oh, read. Open up. What? What? This time! I thought he was in. Ah! We don't win this. The chances we've had here. Peter Reed. Ah! The keeper just... Keep it giving up. Waved it away. Oh, get up. Oh, my win. Waved it away. Hey! Wake up! There's three. So we made treble substitution. There they are. Here we go. Come on, boys. All right. And there's a pass. And a pass. And I'm on. Oh, it's gone. And he's great. Get in there, son. Do something, innit? Sheedy! Ah! Great. The tap in, Rowling. The tap in. Ah! This is like watching everything. Couldn't get it out of my feet. Couldn't get it out of my feet. I wanted the glory. I didn't know it was going to get out of my feet. Ah! Here we go. Come on. Your signal, come on, innit? It's all right. Thought it was Andy Gray for a second. All right. And there. I can't even see the other corner. Get some. That's gone away! Let it be me. Let it be me. Get some height on it. Yours is too low. It's better. Oh, you, innit? No, cos you're hitting it too low. Can't get anywhere near it. Cool. Let it be me. There's the other from Blackcliff. Finish. Play. You've done it. Go on, I've gone. Oh, what have you done? It's changed. Say that. Ah! Can't, I can't get near him. One second. The mood in the studio has changed. Come on. Five minutes. Come on, to get a win, innit? Come on. Holy shit. No, we don't think like that. I don't want you to mess and come on. This way. I think I'm positive. Positively. We are. We are. That's richo for ya! Eeeeh. Everyone stay. Everyone stay. Everyone stay. Playing away! Playing away! We've got a point. We've got a point. We've got a point, innit? I mean, we've got a point. We missed so many chances, innit? 87 minutes, you lie. Sam Dorey, got six points.

Good evening. Good evening. Thank you all for coming to the Center for Strategic and International Studies. I'm Andrew Schwartz. I'm Vice President of External Relations here at CSIS. And have the pleasure of hosting the Sheeper Series with Bob Sheeper in the Texas Christian University TCU School of Journalism. I'd like to acknowledge some of our colleagues from TCU who made it up here from Fort Worth. And we're really looking forward to this terrific panel tonight. I also have the pleasure of announcing that tonight from here on we have a great company, United Technologies has agreed to sponsor this series going forward. And you may know United Technologies, they're a diversified company that makes elevators, Otis elevators and escalators, Sikorsky aircraft, all these kinds of things. And we're just so lucky to have them on board to help this series continue to be great and to be able to host you all. And with that I'd like to throw it over to Bob and let everybody get started. All right. I would like to tell you that we do have the first team from TCU here today. And I'll just introduce them as they're seated here. John Lumpkin is the new director of the Sheeper School. Hold your applause till the end. Victor Buccini is the new, he's not new, he's been there. He is our esteemed chancellor of Texas Christian University. That's Bonnie Melhardt who is the associate provost. There's Noel Donovan who's the provost of the university. There's how often introduced is the cute little blonde, Pat Sheeper who is the trustee of TCU. She's right there. And sitting next to Pat is Daria Fadiva who is a Russian student at TCU who is doing an internship this summer at CSIS. And she's also taking Chinese at night over at Johns Hopkins. Daria, just stand up and let everybody see you. Well, I thought it wouldn't be fair and I must say I want to thank both of you all. I know you didn't have much to do this afternoon. There's not much going on and I really do appreciate you taking this time, at the busiest time of the day for those of us in television to come and talk about journalism and the Sunday shows and what's going on. Our old friend Tim Russert used to say that when he was named moderator of Meet the Press, he said he felt that he had been appointed the curator of a national treasure and I thought that was exactly right because these Sunday shows really are, not to put too fine a point on it, but they are really something special. Sunday mornings on television is a different time of the day and it's a different time period from any other time period because these broadcasts are information driven. They're not about show off anchors. They're not about gotcha questions. Even when we do. Even when we do. They are about getting information and trying to advance the story. And, you know, Meet the Press is the oldest program on television. CBS Face the Nation was started, I guess, about seven years after Meet the Press was started. For the sole reason that Frank Stanton, who was the president of CBS, said we need something to compete with Meet the Press because they had the only live interview show. While they're the oldest, ABC came along some years after that, but while these shows are the oldest continuous shows on television, of all the programming on television, I would say they have changed the leaks. Basically we do today exactly what we did in those early shows and that is get the key people involved in the top story of the week, sit them down at the table, turn on the lights and ask questions. That's what they were doing back then and we have better technology now but that's basically what we're doing today. Let's just talk a little bit about the news first. This was a pretty heavy day for all of us. The president held a news conference. We've got the situation building in Iran. George, what did you think of what the president said today? I had deepened the news conference that he had ratcheted up the rhetoric but I think he's probably a minority of one on that because he clearly did. He's got the disease that infects every single president. They're all convinced no matter what their press is like that they're getting the worst press than any president ever got and it's just objectively not true here. I don't understand why he was so intent on convincing people that he hadn't changed his position. If you go to 10 days and he hasn't changed the underlying position of engaging with Iran no matter what but Saturday for the first time he called for an end to the violence. Saturday for the first time he used the word justice when he talked about the side that the protesters were on and today for the first time he used the word outrageous and I think abominable and outrageous and that was clearly the White House is watching this. I think they've been surprised by the strength of the protest movement and they're calibrating their response. I hesitate to say anything about intelligence with Mike Hayden sitting in the second row. I noticed that too. You just see who he's got some right next to him. I'm not going to be heading to foreign armed services issues either but I think it's in part and I beg you to correct me if I'm wrong I think part of the reason they're so surprised is that we don't have that much good intelligence about what's happening on the ground in Iran. We haven't had good human intelligence. We had to leave in 79 and we don't really know how the forces are coalescing, fighting, competing inside that top council of clerics and I think that's part of the reason why they've had a hard time figuring out exactly what to say on any given day. And there's no question this is extremely sensitive. We're walking a very fine line here. I mean the United States cannot come out and say storm the Bastille here and then if they do it's not going to help. A lot of people will get killed and then you have to ask the question well what do you do after that? Well precisely what do you do after that if there's an even bloody or crackdown that we've seen. I mean I think it's interesting and you could chart this throughout the week that once the regime got more aggressive then the response got more aggressive and kind but what do you do if there's even more violence? Plus I just think it's a practical matter. I mean look this is a pragmatic, compromise driven, realist driven president who said to our guy at the White House Chuck Todd today, I'm not going to talk about what the repercussions might be because we don't know how all this is going to play out. I mean I don't think they're much in the business of regime change at this White House. They've seen that movie and it hadn't worked out so well for the previous administration. I think they want to be in the business of coming to some sort of agreement on nuclear weapons that's the game here and I think he is biding his time to see what and who and how strong a figure he's dealing with. Well one thing he did say he said what happens in the streets is going to determine how we deal with Iran in the future so if he was trying to hold a little bit of a stick up there I guess you could say that was it but I mean when you come down to options we're extremely limited in what we could do here. I mean what would we do? What would we do if we decided to bomb? I mean what kind of a message would that be to the world? We're going to bomb a country if we don't like the way the election came out? Also they'll maintain that the engagement with Iran is not going to be a reward for good behavior so certainly there hasn't been any good behavior to reward here in the past week and a half. I think the question is whether the Iranian regime is weaker, more defensive, more isolated and does that make them more or less willing to deal with the United States? Their whole strategy here and that's why this Russian meeting is important is to peel off all the patrons kind of like the healthcare debate. You peel off all the patrons away from Ahmadinejad and then maybe you know maybe he's got fewer places to turn. And that may be the question even setting aside with the Iranians we have so little control over them given what they've revealed about themselves in the last two weeks are Russia and China more likely now to go to the stage of really imposing tough sanctions on the Iranians now that they've been revealed? We don't know the answer to that yet. I think that's the other reason the President is biding his time. I thought one of the more interesting things in the news conference today just as a long time watcher of news conferences is that the second question went to the Huffington Post and the President said in the news conference he was calling on the Huffington Post correspondent because he understood that a lot of people in Iran are getting their news off the internet. Let me just add as somebody who was in the White House Prescor who was accused not personally but you know we were all in questions about whether Bush had the questions in advance for the press conferences which he never did and there was never any discussion to that effect. The President today called on Niko from Huffington Post and seemed to indicate you know exactly he knew what he was going to ask. Well he sort of gave him the question. He said I know you've got questions coming from Iran. It just struck me a lot. I thought it was beyond odd. I thought there's nothing wrong with calling on Niko Pitney. There's nothing wrong with calling on the Huffington Post. There's nothing wrong with going and reading his live blog which anybody could have done and seen him say I'm going to ask a question about Iran but the President basically told him what question to ask and that just had the feel of kind of state managed media. I think what he was trying to do is to try to underline he was trying to get through to those Iranian protesters in the street but I agree with you. I think at best it was somewhat awkward in the way he did it. Another thing to note here which I found quite interesting today is that for the first time that I can ever recall at a presidential news conference the President did not call on the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Philadelphia Inquirer. It was almost like he was going over the big city media. What was that about? Well, I'm going to say a couple of things. One, clearly this White House doesn't like the New York Times. No, no, that's good. I think in this case he's out there, he's doing a lot of stuff and I think that he does want to highlight the fact that he's somebody who's more engaged with social media, more engaged with the internet and that he will pick these opportunities to hopscotch around the media landscape with a fair degree of savvy. He's not going to be boxed in by that. I mean, I do think it's striking that he would go out of his way to do that. But I would, I gather they would say, look, we're out here doing this enough that it's not like we're looking at it. Well, how does he pick the people he chooses, George? I'm not inside there, but I'm struck by how disciplined it is and how choreographed it is. There is zero spontaneity at a White House press conference right now. I mean, he goes in with a list of 18, whatever it is. And in the order. And he asks them in direct order. He knows exactly who he's calling on. Because Bush, you'd give Bush a list of who was there and then he kind of... And a seating chart. AP man. I was going to say... You know, he also does a great play. I see the camera, don't I? I'm mostly, I'm mostly, I mean, it's because we could never get Clinton to call on who he was supposed to call on. I mean, whatever happened to the old days when people, you know, raised their hands and who stopped that? I guess it was the Bush one. Didn't he thought it was just too undignified or something? I sort of liked it when people jumped up to be recognized. Listen, we didn't, I mean, in the Clinton White House, we didn't have a... We had to go to the first row. The television corresponded first in the AP. In the AP. In that, it was basically, did we want it? And you know, the other great tradition that has just sort of gone away without remark is that the AP person, the wire service person, the senior person used to always say thank you. Right now, it is a person holding the news conference that says thank you. I remember when I used to cover the White House and these unctuous aides would try to cut off a news conference and say thank you, thank you, and I'd always say excuse me, I'll say thank you. You know, another tradition along those lines when you're on Air Force One, it's traditional that if there's really big news, the wires can have the operator on Board Air Force One make a call to the wires and get the news out. And I was flying, and I'd always get an argument with AP and I'd say listen, Terry, Terry Hunt, I would say those days are over, okay? Those days of you, the wire is dominating. I said you've got organizations out here with 24-hour cable operations. If we're gonna make a call, we're all making the call. And we went back and forth, and actually it was not Terry, it was somebody else who actually let it happen. Terry said he would have never let it happen. This is a big debate about who could call from the plane. I don't think it's fair for me to grill you guys. So George, you asked the questions for a while. Wow. This is your one and only chance. This is my only chance. I'll ask you, I guess, since you have been doing this the longest and I've only come up in a world where I expect, from being on both sides, when it comes on to be perfectly prepared, know exactly what they want to say, know exactly what they don't want to say. And we saw a lot of that with the president today. I guess my question is, how different is it? Well, it is different. You know, when I came to Washington and I came in 1969, which if you want to add that up, that'd be 40 years, 40 years ago, when I came to Washington, most members of Congress didn't even have press secretaries. It was such so informal in those days. And the other part of it was there were not nearly as many reporters in those days as there are now. We're getting ready to see a lot fewer reporters. That's for sure with newspapers and the kinds of trouble that there are. But it was much more informal. You had a much better opportunity to have face-to-face, you know, contact with people. When we used to go on these White House trips, that was where you really got to develop your sources and really got to have dinner with people. And now, as you all know, sometimes you can go on a White House trip and never get within three miles of the president. It's mostly discovered, and this is because of the increased security in all of that. But I mean, I often tell this story when I was a rookie reporter and I was in order to the White House one Sunday morning. People forget this, but Richard Nixon actually held church services with the White House the first year of his presidency. And they'd have a visiting evangelist and they'd have, you know, they'd sing some hymns and then at the end everybody'd go up with a little receiving line and they'd shake hands with the president. And one time Helen Thomas, old Helen and I were always there. I was a rookie and I'd get sent over there. If there had been any news, I'd have to go back and give it to Dan Rather. It was a White House. But there never was. So I would go over there just to make sure nothing happened. And one Sunday we were actually over there and Helen said, get in the line. And I said, Helen, we're not supposed to get in the line. I said, that's really, no, get in the line. We'll ask him some questions. Well, I don't have any questions. She said, we'll ask him about those advisors. Well, there was this story going around that Nixon was going to bring in some new advisors. People didn't know if they were coming from outside the government or inside the government. So I got up there and Helen said, ask him. And I said, Mr. President, these advisors, will these be in-house advisors? Oh, no, he said, these will be outhouse advisors. And then he said, oh, no, you know what I mean. And he went on about his business. But because of that, I can honestly say I've interviewed every president since Nixon. Nobody but my mother and I think that was an interview. But my mother thought it was a great question. That's a good question. I see Senator Sasser out there for Ambassador to China. I didn't see you, Senator. How are you today? But it was just with the more people that come and with every administration, I think every administration learns from the previous one and it becomes more organized. We've become very sophisticated in this country on how we deal with information. And everybody has a line, but you stick to that line. You don't say anything except what you came there to say. I think people do a real disservice when they come on these Sunday shows and don't have something to say. Sam Nunn, who's the chairman of CSIS is still my favorite guest because you would call Sam and say you want to be on Face the Nation. He'd say, Bob, I really don't have anything to say this Sunday. I wish everybody who didn't have anything to say would follow Sam Nunn. I think it really helps. I think you really hurt yourself when you come on there. And we can clearly feel the difference. Exactly. And people know when you're not answering the questions. You look evasive and it just doesn't help you at all. My advice is if you've got something to say, know what you want to say. That's okay. But we'd be willing to answer questions about it. And if you don't have anything to say, stay home and watch. I agree. Well, then I was David. What surprised you most? Six months in. Look, I don't think it's... I don't know that I've been surprised, but I think it is magnified certainly taking over a program like this, becoming a custodian of a program like this, after Tim's death, has been difficult. It's the kind of transition that nobody's prepared to make. Organizations aren't prepared to make. And even though there's transition in TV news, you don't see it. You don't see it like this. It's a big challenge when you have a figure who looms so large. And so I still think that that's something that I am reckoning with. But I tell you, in terms of the surprise is, I guess, two things. How impactful the programs are. And it goes to your point, which is we have this incredible luxury of sitting down and doing interviews for anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes. And people are sitting down and they are watching these programs and they are listening. They are not usually engaged in some other activity like they are with some of the other programming. And so that sort of impact what you say and the kind of news you can make through this form and that's the other surprise. I remember when I would, if I would ever fill in for Tim or if I'd be on the program, I thought, wow, you've got 45 minutes or thereabouts of talk time. That is an enormous amount of time. And then you get it and you still realize you're having to throw stuff out because you're running out of time. I thought, wow, what an adjustment that you can make so quickly to do this much time. But guys, there's nothing better than a depth. And to the point that you made, Bob, earlier, which is that for however dramatic the landscape has changed, however dramatically that's happened, there is still this place where people say, yes, I'm getting information from lots of other sources, but this is still a place in time that I want to dedicate time to really hear somebody out and perhaps learn something. So you get a chance. The story today that the president dealt with was healthcare. We've all seen this play out before during the Clinton years. What's different now? I think we're just at the very... It's like we're in this big forest. And we've just taken the first two steps into the forest. And really all you can see is the forest here. I don't think at this point anybody knows how this thing is going to come out. Can you have healthcare for everyone on top of what the government is already doing with the stimulus package, with the help of the auto companies, with climate change and all of that. I don't know that this is going to get done. I don't think healthcare for everyone is going to get done. I think we already see that it's going to be almost impossible given the economic constraints. Once you say, I mean it's a lot of money, once you say it's limited to a trillion dollars, you're pretty much saying you're not going to cover everyone at least right away. And that's the one bottom line coming out of the president's press conference today was basically this was going to be I only left my phone on in case they called... Mrs. Giuliani. The only bottom line the president said was I want something that is going to control costs and that is paid for. He wants to expand access and expand the number of insured but he didn't say cover everyone in fact I thought significantly today the president gave an impassioned defense of this public health insurance option. But he didn't say I wouldn't sign a bill that didn't have it. All I'll say is that it makes sense but to answer your question directly I think there are at least three big changes from 1993 and 1994. Number one for a lot of Americans has gotten worse. Marginally increasing the number of uninsured costs have definitely gone up for most Americans. Number two and this is I think something that helps the president the Democrats in the Congress are not at the end of a 40 year ride of being in charge in the final days of their majority. They're a majority that has been tempered by being in the minority for 8 to 10 years and that has made them more open to compromise. And then third and I think this is the squishiest one it's clear that the business community feels a need to be on the side of acting like they're for being part of the solution at the front end of this process. I'm not sure they're all going to stick around to the back and I think that's where a lot of the play is over the next couple months but going in it's a big big difference to have them say they're going to be on the side of it. I just think we're so not in this enough that you can even, until we know how we're going to pay for it until we have some idea of what shape it's going to be what shape it's going to take I don't think you can say right now how this is going to come out. And I think one of the other problems is that the central argument that the president makes is that ultimately a government controlling government costs is about controlling but he's just a little far behind in making that argument. You can't have government intervention to this extent you can't have an $800 billion stimulus bill and then talk about a trillion dollar health care plan and say no but this is the thing that really saves the government money down the road. Look there's obviously substance to that argument but it seems to me Bob from the point of view of Republicans, Republicans who have virtually no strength at the moment nevertheless have something of a roadmap here not only to oppose this but to start to oppose the president on the opaqueness of his exit strategy in terms of government intervention. How do you, I mean the president argued today that yes indeed private insurance companies can compete with the government and a government health plan how do you help me with that argument George I mean I don't know, I have no idea what your thoughts on it but I mean how can something that's turn a profit or at least break even compete with a government that doesn't have to turn a profit. Well I think it depends on how much money the government is willing to put into the plan and how much money the government is willing to put behind it and subsidize it so that the premiums are lower and where does the government get the money for this? Well that gets back to your other point of the one place where this has fallen apart is every single idea so far to raise revenue to pay for this has been knocked down now they may end up coming back to some of the ideas that have been knocked down but no idea that's been to get two, three, four hundred billion dollars has survived more than two or three days of debate on Capitol Hill. Do either of you think the climate bill is going to be acted on this year? It seems to me that they it's got a little bit more momentum behind it but it seems to me that everything is now locked in behind healthcare that I can see that slipping it doesn't seem like it has the same priority that healthcare does. I think it will pass the house I think it could pass the house maybe even this week I mean they're hoping it's going to pass the house this week then the question will be how and its fate is tied to healthcare reform and I completely agree that right now healthcare reform has the priority it's not out of the question that if health starts to fade you'll actually see the chances of climate change starting to rise or that's a big tax increase because what I think what's important here is that what the president needs is a signature legislative achievement and the stimulus bill is not going to count. I mean he needs something on the domestic agenda that he actually achieves here and that's why I think healthcare is the big game for him. And that's why I think he'll be willing to compromise just about anything to have a bill he can sign talk about lessons learned from the Clinton experience I mean that was clearly a case where going in there were 22 Republican senators for universal healthcare at the beginning of that process they had all bled away by the end in part because we took too hard a line in the Clinton White House I vividly remember a day when the president was going to give a speech where he said he was suggesting that he would accept 95% coverage and first lady and a lot of other people in the White House came down hard and said that's just absolutely unacceptable that was taken off the table. You look back 15 years and say you could have gotten 95% of what you wanted you take it in a heartbeat and that's why I think this White House has internalized that lesson. I think ROM's line is that the only non-negotiable principle here is success and that's why I think part of their game will be saying that whatever they get is a victory. Let's talk about journalism and where it stands right now there's no question newspapers are really having a hard time. David do you think newspapers are going to make it? Well I hope they do I think they've got a huge challenge and I think that it's like what the broadcast networks are going through as well I think that some of the model has to change and find different ways to make money but I still think that there's a fundamental demand for not only as Ben Bradley says having a paper that really is tied into a community and can represent a community and provide the kind of information and context and perspective that you can't get anywhere else so I think they look whether it's newspapers or magazines they're all struggling to find a way to stay afloat I think it is so important to have major newspapers like the New York Times or the Washington Post who have whether they've got the resources or not certainly still have the reach to put people all over the world and to provide the kind of reporting that a lot of the networks have had to step away from What do you think Joe? News organizations are going to survive I don't know if the actual hard paper copy which I love I love nothing when getting up early in the morning rapping New York Times on my doorstep I'm not sure if it's going to survive in the same way but I think people will figure out a way to make money on the web they're going to have to it might take relaxing some antitrust laws to make it really work because there's a lot more partnership where you can go back to the days when the same people or the same company could own the newspaper and station in town that may be one way out of this and I agree with you I hope these national newspapers can survive but I also hope these smaller papers can survive because if they don't, if we don't have somebody that goes to the police station every day that goes to the courthouse every day not that it goes there when there's a story not when they think something is happening but every day we will have corruption in this country and local like we have never seen before you also can have complete detachment from your actual communities if you think about the strength because local news is also in so much trouble the auto industry is the big advertisers for local news so they're feeling it so if you don't have a newspaper or a local news organization with some reach you've got no real tie to your community at all the good news and the bad news and the government news so that's a real threat that I think is very important to keep in mind it's not so much whether it's printed on a piece of paper or you read it online it's the information there is it accurate, is it the kind of product that newspapers turn out today newspapers costs a lot of money to produce because it takes a lot of people to do it you need editors, you need reporters you have to send somebody to all these places every day even when there's not news going on there are endless debates about whether the mainstream media is liberal or conservative or whatever there has to be a place where people at least try not to put a political spin where people can agree on the facts and that is the important thing to put it, say well the Daily Bugle is going online that's fine if it's the same Daily Bugle that's printing the newspaper but if it's 10 guys on the blog that just get up in the middle of the night then that is not a newspaper and that is the thing that I think what we have to remember it's the product that they're putting out and you can only do that when you have a large staff that can do what we expect from newspapers today well let's take some questions from the audience alright, there's one right there well it was a good introduction because I'm an online publisher good, well we'd like to know who you are because we'd like to know who comes so tell us in addition to my name is Paula Gordon I have a brand new website that will be accessible by domain name on Thursday called eligibilityquestions.com and my question is one of the things that I'll focus on is why and the mainstream media including the right wing cable networks focused on eligibility questions a whole host of various eligibility questions what do you mean by that? eligibility for what? for the presidency for the presidency? for the surrounding presidency yes in other words like you can be 30 instead of 35 you mean what you have to do to be qualified to be president or what? yes, the constitutional qualifications for the natural born citizen to be president this is not being covered and the fact that the it strikes me as a real mystery why the right wing and the left wing of the mainstream media are you driving to the point that you think the current president is not eligible to be president? I'm driving at the point for instance Bobby Jandel has his parentage were not naturalized citizens at the time of his birth well there are questions whether or not an individual is eligible all right well I take your point well maybe that's something we ought to focus on more I would have to say I think we're handling that okay well that's what we have here in America there are several hundred thousand people thinking that who have petitioned who think that there are some people who think we didn't go to the moon but I mean you know that's sort of we're a country that doesn't always agree on everything here's another question thank you very much my name is Edie Wilson and I actually came to ask a question we lived through a really long political campaign and a really big financial crisis and as I watched religiously by the way the both of these shows in fact all three of them T-votes a wonderful thing I kept wanting to figure out what I thought of the balance between the economic coverage and the political coverage and I want to know what you think of it both during the election and now when I reflect on it I thought I saw a lot more political process what did what to whom and who's up and what primary and what's going on with whatever which seemed less important than taking premise and I take the premise that these aren't important programs of talking about economic issues with the world and with the American people so it's a hard thing to get right how do you feel you did well look I think political campaigns are sort of notorious for a lot of process coverage it's what a lot of people are interested in it's also really important part of the process but I wasn't I wasn't at the helm and meet the press during the campaign but nevertheless I think for all the programs there's still more depth on economic matters in the course of the campaign than you're going to get throughout most of the other landscape of political coverage and since the president has been in office this has really been unique and I think our level of coverage and detail into the financial crisis and the complexities of the financial system has been appropriately deep now let's stipulate one point that is that most people I don't really like the term mainstream media because it's used kind of pejoratively but the point is that most people in journalism do not understand how our financial system works but I got news for you there's a lot of people in the financial system evidently who didn't have a keen understanding either so we had to really step up we had to step up and do our homework and dig deep both so we could understand and explain in a way that was accessible and that we could also hold our leaders accountable and that's no small thing but in the course of that you really do recognize that A you've got people on Wall Street who don't ever have the experience of having to speak to Americans in real terms and layman's terms about what they do, about what the complexities are and you have those challenges that were faced by government officials as well including the Treasury Secretary who's had enormous difficulty speaking to the American people about these issues so I think certainly in the past six months you have seen great depth but let's also you know don't just turn this on us you know it sounds like you're quite interested in these issues and that's important but it's important for everybody and it demands all of this depth that you show up and that you watch and that you really take notice because there's a lot of people who say oh well listen why aren't you covering you know mark to market accounting and then we do it and where are you then suddenly you're not in the room watching TV so I think it's an important point all the way around and I think that certainly since this president has gotten into office you have seen enormous depth I think you see people kind of getting into this topic who have not been into it before it's been important I mean I speak for myself it's been important to kind of go and try to achieve that level of depth because the impact of it is so great I couldn't agree with David more I have made the point in several talks lately that I've been a reporter now for 52 years and in that time I have covered everything from hubcap fees to arms control negotiations and I could never remember a story where I didn't feel that I had a point of view on whether the government was doing the right thing or the wrong thing but when this financial crisis hit and we became again to see these problems unfold I felt that I simply didn't have the technical expertise to know whether what the government was doing was the right thing or the wrong thing I mean did we need a stimulus yes I think we did but did we have the right combination was this the right way to go about it these are very very complex issues and I agree with you David I think we're all learning and still trying to learn I think I mean I'd like to think I probably know more about politics than I do about covering finance because I've spent my life covering politics I would say on the coverage of the politics side of it I thought we did a very good job I think and not so much because of the press but because of the campaign I've always been one of those who believes it is the candidates who make the campaign we just show up and write about it it's the candidates in the end who make the campaign I thought we had two excellent candidates issue three excellent candidates I thought Hillary Clinton was quite a good candidate and I thought she really advanced the cause of women I mean she's the first woman who was taken seriously as a presidential candidate and the way she conducted herself in that campaign is going to make it a lot easier for my children and grandchildren for all girls if they decide that they want to run for president so I feel very indebted to her for the way she cleared the way for women and I thought Barack Obama it was historic in every way it seems to me and not just from the fact he's the first African-American I mean the fact that we again saw that words count that rhetoric counts I mean when did we somehow in this country get the idea that it was not important to be able to reach or talk to people or connect with people we also found for the first time in a long time that crowds count remember in the beginning when everybody said oh he's just a celebrity those crowds don't amount to anything well I think we now understand that they do and if you go back and look when Barack Obama started to draw big crowds then the other candidates started to draw big crowds people somehow remember it's kind of fun to go out and see a candidate in person so I thought it was a wonderful campaign I must say I mean you know it's my view and you know where I'm coming from but I thought we did a good job on it I would just add I we're all sitting there defending our turf I completely agree with both what Bob and David said I would just add one other point and I do bristle a little bit when I hear of this dichotomy between here's the politics on the one hand and the policy and the substance on the other because they are inextricably linked and every decision made in a White House or the Congress is going to try to balance out what people believe is the right thing to do what will work and what can get done what can get through the process and part of our job is to make sure people are getting both sides in balance and I'm sure there are days when we you know fall too far on one side or the other but I don't think we're doing our job unless we show how those two sides go together okay right here we need to have a guy we got to have gender equality here you I think Mr. Sheffer mentioned at the very beginning at the end of your remarks something about the need to maintain even in the small town media so that we can agree on the facts something to that effect I mean bringing back that particular point my perception I guess is a big large issue that indeed with the proliferation of new media the internet all the things that we know and the availability and the very low entry point and the bloggers etc and indeed the decline of the audience of both mainstream network television as well as the big newspapers as you alluded to in your conversation earlier on and the fact that opinion dominates that now opinion is what makes news which is sort of a contradiction in terms that we may get to a point in which with the proliferation of opinion journalism and all the talk shows etc or even the fact that on cable news you know the journal the anchor asks the person what do you think about all this as opposed to what happened and so the journalist provides their opinion about what happened that we may get to a point that we don't have a set of facts that we share and on which as you do in your talk shows you can argue and have an intelligent conversation about is this a trend? Is this actually happening? No, but it's part of how the whole idea of journalism you know the fact is that objectivity is a fairly new concept in journalism I mean what it is it probably goes back to what about World War II or between World War I and II when we began to talk about objectivity and that sort of that sort of thing up until that point I mean every publication had a point of view in Lincoln's time you had Republican newspapers, Wig newspapers and so on so that's all fairly new but what's happening here and the way the internet has changed everything the internet if you stop and think about it is the first vehicle to deliver news we've ever had that doesn't have an editor the worst newspaper the smallest radio station has somebody who knows where the stuff comes from stuff pops up on the internet you don't know if it's true you don't know if it's false you don't know if it's something in between you have very reliable websites I like to think the CBS website if you see it there you know it's been vetted by CBS news you know it's gone through the same process that we use when we put things on the CBS evening news or the morning news New York Times website those are the same products they've gone through the editing process and that's that's what has changed things here this stuff pops up it's out there it used to be the kind of thing that was just whispered in campaigns now it's on the website look when Sarah Palin was first chosen as John McCain's running there were all these rumors that were going around the mainstream media we were all taking hits why are you circulating all this stuff we weren't we were trying to check it out like you would any news tip none of that stuff was on any of the networks any of the major newspapers until the McCain campaign put out a written press release and said Sarah Palin 17 year old daughter is pregnant and so on and so forth then of course we printed that but the fact that it wasn't in any mainstream publication the fact was people still knew about it it was all over the place they were having to deal with it we were having to deal with it and that's what has really changed things here I think it puts a special responsibility for all of us on Sunday I feel like an editor most of the time and that a big part of our job in trying to pull together the week that was in the week ahead for people is sifting through all of the stuff that was out there all week long on cable on the internet and we do decide in some fashion you know what needs to be talked about in this hour it's a big part of our job in the questions and moderating the discussions is making sure that we bring facts to the table so that then people can feel like they're joining a discussion where there isn't agreed upon well that's what I mean I think the mainstream media our role now is to you know present the facts that people can agree on and I think that's our job I mean there was a thing that popped up this is absolutely true several years ago that popped up on the internet that said Jerry Rice who at that time was a wide receiver for the Oakland Raiders that showed up at Face the Nation and Bob Schieffer was really surprised because he thought Condoleezza Rice was coming well somebody had obviously written this as a joke but it popped up on the internet and I tell you if you go by the email that I get I'll guarantee you a lot of people thought it was true it went on to say that once I got over my shock that Jerry Rice had some very interesting things to say about Bob you know but that's what we're operating in I mean this communications revolution we're going through here it has a downside as well as a good side good point right here go ahead Maryam Nawabi from America Broad Media I host a show that broadcasts in Afghanistan to show you know American people issues I wanted to touch on the issue of war correspondence and war coverage especially with respect to Iraq and Afghanistan as you know there's this need to know about how many people have been off and during conflict but then the stories after to really get into the complexity of rebuilding and US engagement don't get as much coverage how do you think the media has done with respect to covering you know let's say the efforts in Afghanistan after most of the major conflict and some of it continues in the south look I think this is a similar point to one of the questions here about the economy which is there is an expectation that the news media writ large is going to stay on kind of every floor of these major stories and you know for resource questions for just sheer attention spans it's not going to happen and you know you talk about the region in Afghanistan and Pakistan it's dangerous now or more dangerous than it's ever been but getting people to really focus on that is difficult just like it was after America averted its eyes after the engagement in the late 70's so there is just a cycle here we should be paying attention to things that we're not talking about because that could be the next great threat but it's very difficult to kind of put that on the agenda for people to really pay attention to so yeah there's I think a natural lessening or just kind of a a degrading of that coverage for things like what happens after the bombs fall and the engagement I think you just get more periodic looks but you know there is more niche coverage where that kind of thing is going on where you've got some of the major papers who do have people who are covering it but in terms of really grabbing the country by the scruff of the neck and saying focus on Afghanistan I mean yeah it would have been great if there was some addressing there's this group called the Taliban and Afghanistan it's really really dangerous but there was not the political will or you know attention to really do that and I think the news media tends to reflect that and there's sometimes a desire for us to put these things on the agenda and I think that can be very difficult to do next question how about here thank you for a very enlightening discussion I've been following the Sunday news program for a long time and he is a sameness of the guests in the sameness of perspective and on some of the issues as David Gregory has mentioned because I was a great admirer of Tim Russet I don't see enough depth for example the issue of Iran there's a criticism of the president that he's probably a bit timid and he's very pragmatic but I think there's not enough perspective given because of the lack of diversity of opinion why is he being quiet on Iran because his primary focus is on Afghanistan and Iran has a card to play in Afghanistan where America wishes to stay for quite some time and also has a card to play in Iraq where America wishes to exit and also on the core issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict Iran has a place at the table so that issue doesn't come out on the nuclear issue again the views are very American centric a broader picture is not given on the other nations who have nuclear programs which are not being to use your word better adequately so I wish that there is a greater desire to go into depth on the issue of Chechnya I don't see that reflected very adequately which should have been given more greater attention so that's my point that greater diversity of guests less sameness and more desire to probe into issues which can cause problem for America and for the rest of the world because technically right now we are in the same historic boat thank you for your point I wish there were tens of millions of people go ahead or go ahead you could be next my name is Rebecca Barley and I'm a journalist I'm actually reading your book this just in right now and what I get from your book it goes humbles me and empowers me because you were a dogged reporter with the Star Telegraph for 12 years before you came to Washington and so my question to you guys is I am the next generation of journalist this meeting I was at a meeting at NPR where they were talking about Facebook and Twitter and blogging being the next social media so I'm curious what is your advice I can't go work for my local hometown paper anymore so how can I get the experience in reporting to be to be you guys one day I ask this because I really don't like when media is going and it's my generation that's born to lead it I think it's a very good question Rebecca, George, talk about that it's tough you wrote the book you're humble there you know I'm probably the least likely person to talk about this because I have a very non-traditional path into journalism even though I did do journalism when I was in college and graduate school I think first of all there are jobs out there now it is true that a lot of the places that are hiring now are places that are much more focused on the web Atlantic media has really beefed up every major news organization even though they're cutting jobs out of the television side cutting jobs out of the newspaper side they're beefing up their digital side I don't think you should automatically assume that because it's digital it is necessarily an opinion blog or something that you don't want to be a part of and necessarily not the kind of journalism that you don't want to do I do think there are some opportunities out there but I also don't want to be Pollyannish about it you're in a tough job market right now the economy is in tough shape and journalism is being hit disproportionately hard so it's very very difficult and one of the things we resisted ABC been upset about this the only way to get experience is to take an unpaid internship which unless you're wealthy you can't afford to do and at least I know we've done a small part we just don't do them anymore and we have only competitive paid internships so at least everyone is on something of an equal footing but I think that that's a getting that first job right now is very difficult I would just add one thing it is a tough market and George is absolutely right but the thing to remember is there will always be a need for independently gathered information there's always going to be a need for reporters we don't know exactly where all this is going because the technology is moving so fast but there is always going to be a need for that and if you're going into a profession where there's a need for it you'll eventually find a job it may not be in the place where you want to live the rest of your life or doing exactly what you want to do for the rest of your life but I go along with George it's much the main thing to be said about a first job is it's easier to get a job if you have a job so don't be too discriminatory about that first job offer that you have you probably ought to just take it and then use that as a platform I just wanted to say I'm often bitter because I miss the go-go 80s in network news that I hear this guy and guys like Broca talk about so it's a bummer but you've got to get over it those days are over and they're not coming back and I'm going to keep working through that I think you've got to embrace the fact too that part of this digital revolution is also a great thing don't be down on it, you're in it it's your generation, embrace it better, go out there because there's lots of opportunities there are stories from 30 years ago the network used to be incredibly hierarchical places who would not cover higher young people you couldn't get in unless you were willing to go over to Vietnam so that's how a lot of people broke in well look, our guy Richard Engel took a very actually traditional path but it sounded not untraditional in this modern era he picked up, he knew Arabic and he just went to the region and he was stringing and he was writing things he was ABC and now NBC so there are so many opportunities so many walls have been knocked down we've talked about some of the downsides we'll focus on some of the upsides it's a great big world it's a lot more connected and I think there are lots of opportunities and so it's a much more dynamic changing business but to Bob's point people still have expectations of us and still demand and want to consume what we do Andrew, did you want to say a word? I want to use my prerogative as an employee here at CSIS to ask this question I know there's no competition at all between you all for guests but I wanted to know who is the most sought after guest in Washington other than the president and that you would each seek and why? well I think right now I'd love to hear from Hillary Clinton George got a little scoop on us there he had the first interview with her as Secretary of State Michelle Obama would be great Michelle Obama and even better would be that dog no I agree on Michelle Obama is great and Secretary of State no question but Michelle Obama has become this really unique figure where you think about where she was in the course of the campaign and then how she's emerged is both kind of a cultural icon but somebody with great substance as well you know a lot of balance and it's just somebody that people are really interested in but you know aside from those two or three people and there really are very few it's really all about the timing getting the right person on the right week you had the best May I've ever seen Cheney and Powell coming out and basically debating the future of the Republican Party in this show for two or three weeks in a row and just getting the person when they have something to say the president's always great but just about anyone in the cabinet if you get them on a week where there's news that they want to talk about that they can explain that they're prepared to take a stand on any one of them is fantastic if you get them on a week where they're coming out simply to fill the 20 minutes there's only so much you can do and again it's not rocket science you know it's getting the news maker it's the timing of it and you basically when I look back on it you ask the basic questions I always tell journalism students ask the obvious questions young reporters make a great mistake they say well I don't want to ask that because if I ask that he'll think I'm dumb you know or I don't need to ask that because I know what he's going to say well let me tell you something when I turned to Dick Cheney and we were at the end of that interview and I said to him now Russell M. Boss says that Colin Powell is not a Republican he ought to get out of the Republican party Colin Powell says that Russell Limbaugh to get out of the Republican party how do you come down Mr. Vice President and I thought what I would get at the end of the interview was a very artful dodge maybe a humorous way to evade that question and he said well I have to tell you as Republicans go I'd have to go with Russell Limbaugh I'm never in my wildest dreams and I've known Dick Cheney since he was Gerald Ford chief of staff in the White House when he was 32 years old and no matter what happened the rest of the day you had a good day you know I mean but that's a good example never assume you know what they're going to ask I had Secretary Gates on one of my initial weeks and there was this question of how he'd compare Bush to Obama and I'd obviously seen you know that he'd been asked that question and never taken the bait so I said no I'm just not going to ask that he won't go anywhere with it and then I decided at the last minute to do it and he sort of brushed it away and so the other advice is don't be afraid of saying nothing because I sat there and I said no really there must be some difference and I just sat quiet and watched him and he just sat there beat beat beat and he said well he said Obama's a lot more analytical than Bush and kind of went off from there then he said the next day he said the next day he told somebody I wish I hadn't answered that but that's what makes these jobs really fun absolutely and that's why we all feel very fortunate that we actually have them you had a question it's probably getting close to the closing time my name is Mark I'm actually a CSIS alum and now a reporter with a business magazine published by Crane Communications I hope you didn't address this right at the top I missed the first 10 minutes but I'd like to get each of your takes on this is tough enough on President Obama oh you talked about that let me ask the other one actually I do it's never too early to speculate it's never too early to do the horse race with the Republican Party will speaking of taking on President Obama will Mitch McConnell or John Boehner be able to effectively take on President Obama or did the Republicans have to wait until the presidential campaign starts and who do you think could be the toughest opponent for Obama on the latter point I just don't think we know right now I don't think the challenge to Obama is going to come from Washington it'll come from the ranks of governors but at this point after George Bush's election nobody really had a sense of who the head of the Democratic Party was and Barack Obama certainly wasn't on the radar screen and I think Republicans have worked to do before they get it together as to whether you know I think this is sort of sliding scale of how tough you are on presidents I mean I think that George can say I mean I think Bill Clinton had a much harder ride but maybe you know for different reasons I mean I think that there is a sort of a lot of expectation the history surrounding Obama and a lot of that popularity but I think he's getting challenged by the press core and you know look they said some of the things about the Bush White House as well I didn't really subscribe to that so I think that this sort of sliding scale of what people mean when they say being tough enough on the president I would say on the Republican Party the Republican Party right now is in the same place that it was in 1964 when Lyndon Johnson scored that huge then record landslide over Barry Goldwater and people said it's all over the Republican Party is doomed and so on four years later of course Richard Nixon was elected president it always parties always go through this after a presidential defeat and what's happening in the Republican Party right now is there is no identifiable leader it's really too soon for anybody to have broken out of the pack but certainly none of these candidates have and so that is why you see the Republican Party now sometimes getting its leaders mixed up with its cheerleaders and the cheerleaders are moving out onto the field rather than the people who are actually the leaders of the party I would have to say and this is just my opinion and it's a total wild yes I think Tim Plenty the Governor of Minnesota may wind up as the strongest Republican candidate he has a way of saying things he can sometimes say the same thing that say Rush Limbaugh says but say it in a way that people kind of nod their heads he doesn't put his fine an edge on it but he's a guy with a blue collar background he has a very good biography as it were he's been the Governor of the state he's sort of been away from some of the things that people hold against the Republican Party in general right now I think he's going to be might well turn out to be in a lot you know we're a long way from there might well turn out to be formidable he's also north of the Mason Dixon candidate I think it's pretty clear that Romney is going to try again I don't know where that goes I guess Mike Huckabee thinks he has a chance again and he may well I mean after all this the guy that won the Iowa Caucasus the last time out and there'll be some more a few governors but right now they're just going through what all parties do after they lose they're trying to you know get organized I think it's an open question whether they're actually going through what parties need to do to win though whether they're making the kind of changes that the Democrats had to make in the 80s and whether they really can come up with a candidate that is cast a much wider net than they have you haven't heard anybody say that we're going to reform the Republican Party for the future in this way well there's some people that try you have Huntsman come out and say we have to do it the president picks them off and sends them but I mean Democrats they could find a place farther away with the nomination of George McGovern they were going to reform the party and some people would say they still haven't gotten over that or at least they didn't until Clinton was elected it couldn't be more wide open right now I actually probably think a little bit more of Romney's chances than you do only for one reason the fact that he went out there and got beat what you learn in that is invaluable and especially in the Republican Party Nixon Reagan not Bush not the second Bush but the first Bush they all became president after trying and losing on your first question about the press beyond everything else beyond the fact that he was a historic president in getting elected I think the magnitude of the problems the country faces right now are the president's best friend in terms of the coverage because there are so many big things to be dealing with whether it's the trouble in the economy or unwinding a war in Iraq intensifying one in Afghanistan all of the unrest in Iran the big issues of healthcare education energy there's so many big things and he's proposing solutions whether you're just with them to deal with them you can't get caught up in a lot of trivia with the president even when he makes mistakes they get superseded by other stories pretty quickly and I think that's definitely helping you know I didn't answer that part of the question and I wasn't trying to evade it but I would just add this I think in the end yes the president's getting a lot of publicity right now and a lot of it is favorable but in the end it doesn't really matter in the end it's policy good public relations cannot trump bad policy and bad public relations will not kill good policy and just an example of that I would offer the presidency of Richard Nixon Richard Nixon was driven from office he carried on the war with the press but when you look back on it the good things that he did the opening to China the arms control work he did with the Soviet Union they're still seen as significant achievements the bad things he did are seen for what they were for what they were so you know the spotlight goes back and forth we'll all remember George Bush looked pretty good when he landed on that aircraft carrier and got out wearing that flight suit and there was a big sign that said mission accomplished but in the end it didn't make any difference it becomes just a footnote to the presidency and I think that's generally the way it always is well I want to thank all of you on behalf of TCU and the chief of school of journalism my colleagues David Gregory and George Steppenopoulos I really appreciate you coming today and thank you all for coming

You get what I'm saying? And even with the rap caviar and all that, most of the joints, I'm pretty sure that be on it, be from the record labels, right? Yeah, sure. So when you are independent and you dealing with that and we got a certain amount of slots on this shit that we putting out. That's the downside of that independent shit that we're talking about. Right, is we gonna take the independent artists or they say, hey, keep telling us at this record label that they trying to push this artist. Now, we gonna put this artist on there. We gonna get big shit. And we gonna spend that big of bad with y'all. We gonna make sure it's gonna be a favorable-favorite shit. We gonna continue to rub each other's hands for sure. Absolutely. Yeah, it's for sure. With the independent nigga, you don't know if he gonna be ahead of day going to Marl, nigga.

This stream, this video that we're doing, and it's just to let you know for those of you coming on live I'm also recording this on a camcorder with a little lapel mic I don't have the lapel mic on me right now because this is sort of sort of an experiment that we're doing, sort of by request that people mentioned that they would love to have Sort of a book club going here So I thought it was a fantastic idea as you know, I've recommended a lot of books in the past Comics books us book aside. We've done some readings. I've recommended some books and whatnot. So I thought we'd start our little book club going and What we're going to do we're just gonna discuss the introduction to skin in the game by Nicholas Taleb, okay, and With the introduction, it's not just a couple of pages This book has the longest introduction. I've ever read of any book, right? It's about a 50 page introduction for you know 200 250 page book Hello, fast car. How are you doing? Welcome to the stream So basically, that's what we're gonna do today. I've It's a fantastic book really and We're gonna sort of take this apart what I've read so far some of the places Some of the things that I read I really went down a little bit Went down a rabbit hole a little bit because some of the stuff was new to me I didn't know he gets he gets into philosophy and history and Greek mythology and Mathematics and stuff so we jump around a lot. Hello, blueberry. How are you doing? Doing well, man. I've been looking forward to this really been looking forward to this. Um, I From we'll get into it. We'll give everyone about 10 minutes to sort of drop in but Just just a dedication page of this book got me excited But we'll get into it. Okay, so this is what we're going to do today game. We're going to talk about skin in the game by Nicholas Talib. Okay Nassim Nicholas Talib. Okay, and all I've done so far is just gone through the introduction first 50 pages or so But regarding books one of the first things that happened to me back in 2008 2009 When I started uploading math videos was people started asking me about book recommendations. Okay And two of the first videos I put out after I finish the first series for language and mathematics I put out a couple of videos for the second series of Book recommendations that I had might have been towards the end of the first series. Okay So I've been talking about books a fair bit and as you know, you know, I've shown you showing you some of the books in my library I've talked about some of the books we've read We did a how-to study video where we brought out a math book, physics books, Richard Feynman's book. We brought out Linear algebra book and we brought out Chris Hedges days of Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco's days of destruction Days of revolt and I put out of an hour and a half video or hour 15 minute video just showing you guys Sort of a how-to video on how to read a textbook, right? And this book Nassim's book skin in the game is more along the lines of Chris Hedges book days of destruction days of the world. I've been marking this baby up, right? Like Like seriously, right? I'm making a lot of notes. I'm pausing. I'm underlining. I'm highlighting. I'm starring and What I'm ending up doing is because some of the terminology here some of the words some of the historical people that he's referencing I'm not familiar with so some of them what I am some of not some of the math terms. I'm not somebody uses Latin a lot some terminology Latin and I look those up and go down the rabbit hole, right? So this book is along the for reading wise that the way I'm approaching it is along the same lines as Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco's days of destruction days of revolt the book reading that we did on how to study Just to let you know how I'm approaching this thing, right? And just last month, I guess a couple of streams ago or a few streams ago Last couple of months. Someone mentioned that it'd be great if we start up a book club Book reading club work with share information on what I'm reading and give you my reviews and stuff Well, you know, I'm jumping around the fair bit. I'm reading graphic novels. Obviously comic books I'm reading stuff that's related to politics economics geopolitics business finance And all that jazz because I believe we're in a serious transition period and There's a lot of disruptive innovation coming. So I want to be informed on that, right? And I'm also reading a lot of not a lot as much as I can Distributing it out between all these genres, right? Science fiction and fantasy as well, right? As you know, I mentioned that was I just finished Actually, I meant I gave you guys a review of Rift Wars saga by Feist right and we did a reading of the Rift Wars saga a couple of videos ago on YouTube that we loaded up of Their time travel how they time travel and stuff like this and Another thing I'm gonna do with feis work The work or saga I've already started it up But we're gonna do a little ASMR math video related to their time travel and you know, try to take that and overlay it on Sort of an exponential function, right just Not really analyze it too deeply but just talk about how exponential functions relate to that little passage that we ended up reading Okay So before we get into this because this is officially Gonna be our book club first book club reading discussion, right? What I've ended up doing I've created a playlist Let me provide the link to The playlist, okay, that's a playlist on YouTube. I haven't started creating playlist on bitch shoot yet Okay, so that's a playlist on YouTube and I believe that contains right now all the videos We've done regarding books, okay May they be book recommendations me showing you guys putting up this bookshelf and Loading it up with my math books and whatnot showing you guys my math book collection the how to read a textbook video and Other things a couple of other readings. We've done. We've done readings of Krishnamurti's education and significance of life We've done reading of Raymond feis riff or saga, right? And we did a reading of or is a racket by General Smetley Butler, right? So this video is going to be long in that playlist as well Aside from that that should be plenty of time for anyone that wants to be here for Nassim's book skin in the game This is what we're going to talk about a little bit right now. I want to read you some of the stuff that I've Highlighted, okay as for Let me give you the link to Nassim's Website Okay, if you're curious to find out Who this is and I'm gonna read you the description of this Nassim's website, okay, so Nassim Nicholas Talib's homepage, right about the author So I'm quote, okay about Author of it in Inserto, okay, and inserto is I believe it's a Latin or it might be Greek I believe it might be Greek and it's basically uncertainty, right? So inserto means uncertainty and this is sort of a series of books that he's creating Regarding uncertainty, but I'm just going to read and I'll explain things to you and it's It encompasses many things, right? So quote, sorry if I keep on interrupting my quotes, but quote about Author of inserto, a philosophical and practical essay on uncertainty Skin in the game Anti-fragile, the black swan, fooled by randomness and the bed of Procrustus, okay, and I have to look that up what that was, right, but we won't get into that Back to the quote So far, five volume and what Nassim has done right now He's quoting someone else that has written a review of the book from Amazon, okay, so Nassim's tendency is he doesn't like book reviewers. I don't blame him I don't like movie reviewers to a certain degree. I read reviews of Unknown people, people who've seen the movies. I don't pay any attention to Anyone that's writing a movie review or a book review really in newspapers because they're usually paid off or not usually paid off I don't want to trash talk anyone that's for the legit But I go to websites where they do movie rankings and I read reviews of you know, I'm DB people's Personal reviews of the books or movies or books, okay? So he's quoting someone else right now a five-volume investigation of Opacity, luck, uncertainty, probability, human error, risk and decision-making When we don't understand the world expressed in the form of a personal essay with autobiographical sections, stories, parables and philosophical, historical and scientific discussions in No Non-overlapping volumes that can be assessed in any order, okay? and this book right here is the fifth book in this Philosophical discussion of uncertainty which encompasses many other things, right? And I haven't read the previous Four volumes, okay the previous four books. I haven't read excerpts from them I have watched lectures of At least two of the books, okay, and I've watched other interviews and lectures and I've read some other stuff by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, okay? So that's his website you can find additional information about him, okay, and here's a little Penguin Random House if you want it's basically You know a little summary of each book I haven't read, read them I read, I think one of them just to see what the summary was So that's where we are that's where I'm coming from in regards to this book, okay, and For me, I'm not sure if any of you guys have read this book Okay, I Believe you read in a previous video. I read the description, you know Nassim is and whatnot but basically what Got like the first thing that got me excited about this book was The dedication that Nassim has done for the book, right? And this is the dedication and this is the notes that I took It's not sort of copied down Because I didn't want to track down the Twitter info that Nassim had given regarding this dedication, right? But basically the dedication is this He's dedicated the book to two men of courage The first one is Ron Paul and he calls him a Roman among Greeks Okay, and I had to look that up and I'm gonna explain to you what Roman among Greeks is, okay? and the other person that is dedicated this to is Ralph Nader and He referenced he he calls him a Greco Phoenician saint right and I I Don't know what Gekko round and I don't know what Gekko Phoenician is I tried looking it up and I couldn't make heads or tails out of it So I'm gonna look this up more later Okay, but for those of you who don't know who Ralph Nader is Ralph Nader is One of the most important People You know, I don't want to build it up too much, but he is One of the most important people on this planet that has Taken Some action that has benefited humanity more than Top of my head has been trying to think about this for a lot for for all of today trying to think about if there's anyone else that has benefited has Got some things Rolling right Decided to do certain things that has benefited humanity more and I haven't been able to think of anyone if you can Please let me know if you don't know who Ralph Nader is Ralph Nader basically is a person that really Instigated consumer protection right took corporations governments to court help bring about legislation that has prevented I Don't know how many millions tens of millions of deaths injuries and has held You know has changed the law to hold corporations accountable for their crimes or for their transgressions and This was basically brought up on the United States and the model has been has Rolled out in many other countries as well, right? I don't know if Ralph Nader was following the footsteps of someone else I'm pretty sure he was but I don't know that person and in regards to Ralph Nader and again One thing I'll mention. I agree with much of a lot of what Nassim Tell up that I've read from him so far and I've watched his lectures and stuff like this But I don't agree with everything he says right and just on that note Regarding Ralph Nader. I know Nassim looks very Fully of Nader, right? I've seen it in his lectures and stuff like this, but I found a little foot in footnote Right because some of the things that Nassim was saying are Contradict some of the things Nader stands for however Nader is authentic genuine so is Nassim So I'm pretty sure they have full respect for each other as I was gladly Gladly found out that He dedicated the book to him as well along with Ron Paul Just fast car impressive for a man who got only 2% in the 2000 presidential elections. Hello, buddy. Hello tragedy. How are you doing? Yeah, and that's the kicker right If people knew in the united states Who Ralph Nader was and what he has done for The citizens of the united states forget about what he's done Globally for citizens of the united states They would grab every president for last Three decades and throw them in the trash right relative to what he has You know done for citizens of the united states Okay, your voice is so nice New family so much. Awesome. I'm glad to have you joker seven joker Okay Here's what Nassim has to say regarding Ralph Nader. Okay, and I'm going to read Just a paragraph up here and then I'm going to read the footnote, right? And He's referring to common law and he was getting into common law and stuff like this and just to let you know the first 50 pages of this 47 pages of this are basically introduction to this book skin in the game And they basically sort of recap some of the information main information from the previous four books Okay, but here's what he has to say Oh, cool. Adolf. I'm pretty sure Grecoflation means from both Greece and Phoenicia Phoenicia, Phoenicia. I need to look up Greco. Is that what it means? So Greco, Phoenicia What did he say? Saint right and saint You can get more regarding saint And I'll actually I'll show you a table after we read this little paragraph. Thank you very much, Adolf I gotta look up what I'm gonna look this up While we're at it That way I'm filling up my own gaps at the same time Phoenicia was a fellow Crassus ancient Semitic civilization that originated in eastern Mediterranean. Oh, that's because Ralph Nader I believe he's Lebanese Nader. Let me see what Ralph Nader. Let's see what his origin is. Thank you very much for that, Adolf. I think this is Born Connecticut. Is he or Nassim is Lebanese? No, so is here we go. Here's Ralph Nader Just I don't I use wiki but I use wiki for the most general basic stuff I don't use wikipedia for too much politics economics History of Or crimes of leaders of powerful governments and stuff like this because Wikipedia is filtered censored propaganda if you're going non technical Non-mathmatic space, right? So math wikipedia is good Basic general info of the origin of certain people and stuff is good Some stuff for comic books is good. Some stuff is horrendous. There's contradictions and stuff like this Just letting you know, right? So take everything from wikipedia with a grain of salt But here's Ralph Nader early life and education Ralph Nader was born in Winstead, Connecticut To Nathra and Rosa Nader both of whom were immigrants from Lebanon. Okay, so that could be the Greco Phoenician so the Semitic race from that area today was Carl's Day. Today was Carl Sagan's birthday I didn't know that man. Awesome. Happy birthday Carl Sagan. What a greatest human beings that ever lived Thanks Miles. Devatras you made. I'm here for the insane banter. Awesome. You're gonna get some crazy banter brother Not just from me, but from That's a serious crazy banter. You're awesome banter. What are your opinions that Animate thighs. Animate thighs. The question of everyone's mind Oh animation. We'll have to talk later brother. Bring it up during a comic book stream. I will talk about animation. Okay So let me read you this. Okay Uh If a big core, I want to read the the two paragraphs leading up to my odd nader's footnote, right? If a big corporation polluters If a big corporation pollutes your neighborhood, you can get together with your neighbor and sue the hell out of it Some greedy lawyer will have the proper paperwork ready The enemies of the corporations will be glad to help And the potential costs of settlement would be enough of a deterrent for the corporation to behave, right? And this is sort of common law. I believe it's tort law or whatever it is. The common law were punitive damages and stuff like this, right? This doesn't mean one should never regulate at all. Okay some somatic Uh systemic Effects may require a regulation say hidden tail risks of environmental ruin that show up too late If you can't effectively sue Regulate right and nasi is Not pro-regulation at all, right? Ralph nader prefers more regulation than nasi and at the end of that sentence, right? If you can't effectively sue Regulate and he's got a little asterisk on there is taking us to a footnote, right? So I'm going to read the footnote to you The Ralph nader to whom I dedicate this book is the Ralph nader who helped establish The legal mechanism to protect consumers and citizens from Predator predators less so the Ralph nader who occasionally makes some Calls to regulate Right, so it's fantastic Seeing two people who disagree on one issue Complementing each other and dedicating each other A tremendous amount of time and energy put in there, right? So that's the dedication to Ralph nader. Oh, yeah And when he refers to him, so now thanks to Adolf's Mentioning what it means Greco Greco Greco finici and saint. Okay, so grec Greco meaning Greek finician meaning people of that region. So Ralph nader's from Lebanon Lebanese Greek Lebanese background sort of a Greek thought as well Expand on that and the same part Will connect up to this which is on page by the way If you have this book that the footnote I was reading was on page 32, right? And now I'm going to go to the appendix on page 47 and that's It's a table that he has. Okay, this table that he has here and Basically a cemeteries in life and things and he's got three columns here a cemeteries in society Where we left off in antifragile and antifragile was a previous book that he wrote, right? So basically he's broken this up into Two Three columns, right? This column here the leftmost column is people that don't have skin in the game So he titles it no skin in the game The center column is skin in the game and that rightmost column is skin in the game Of others or soul in the game, right? So this book is mainly about skin in the game, but he also talks about soul in the game when you put everything on the line Right and his definition of this is this no skin in the game. I'm going to give you some examples, right? Uh, no skin in the game Keeps upside transfers downside to others owns a hidden option at someone else's expense So just to let you know who are some of the people he lists as having no skin in the game That means they're not accountable to anything They risk everything without paying the consequences and we'll get into that a little bit, okay? But since we're talking about Ralph Nader, I want to show you where Ralph Nader belongs on his scale System that he's established right now where he calls him a saint, right? So people corporations or entities with no skin in the game Uh, bureaucrats policy policy wonks, right? consultants, uh Sufiets large corporations with access to the state Corporate executives with suits Scientists who play the system Theologians and centralized governments Journalists who analyze and predict Politicians bankers. So and these are some examples of people who don't have skin in the game, right? Here are people who have skin in the game Citizens, merchants, businessmen, artists, entrepreneurs laboratory and field experimenters Government of city-states. So when you go federal government centralized government huge No skin in the game local communities You know, if you want to call them garments, but they're more on a local level There are more sort of people getting together deciding to govern themselves, right? So localized governments Writers speculators have skin in the game, right? Activists hedge fund traders, he says they have skin in the game And skin in the game of others or souls in the game, okay? And the first thing he mentions is saints Knights warriors soldiers, right? And these are people who have Soul in the game. They have the skin of other people in the game, right? Or skin in the game for others of others, right? So that's where he fits Ralph Nader And you know, he has a few people he's listed here, you know profits Mavericks Minis municipal governments Real writers real journalists, right? Who take risks to expose themselves to get to the truth and whatnot Okay entrepreneurs dissidents revolutionaries Okay Highest even only war and death So and one thing he mentions here, right? Regarding people with no skin in the game and regarding people with skin in the game, right? people with Skin in the game he left blank because that really depends on What it is they consider to be skin in the game People with no skin in the game. This is what he's written in the last Rule, right? As their reward Seeks seeks awards prizes honors Ceremonies medals tea with the queen of England Membership in academia handshake with Obama, right? These are people who have no skin in the game The people who have skin in the game of others or sold in the game One of them being Ralph Nader that mentions as being a saint Okay, the highest reward, right? The highest Even only award is death for one's ideas or positions Socrates Jesus St. Catherine Hypatia Joan of Arc and He called Ralph Nader saint and Ralph Nader would belong in that cause, okay? I know we haven't even gone past the dedication page Got to love it, got to love it, okay? As far as Ron Paul goes What he called Ron Paul was a Roman among Greeks, right? And Didn't understand what he was referring to. I thought about it I know a little, you know, a little bit of my Roman history, a little bit of my Greek history And all that jazz and I couldn't figure out what in the world this meant, right? So I did a little looking up and I found Twitter Post tweets, Nassim had done, okay? So I'm just going to read Nassim's tweets, a couple of tweets that he did, right? The real difference in politics isn't the right versus left Graduation, but rather Greek versus Roman, right? And this is what he says Greek is what Greek means Greek equals puts theory above practice Roman equals puts practice above Theory, right? So Greek puts theory above practice Roman puts practice Above theory. So when he goes along and calls Roman among Greeks He's saying that Ron Paul is putting practice above theory where a lot of these bureaucrats and politicians Uh, lobbyists and all these, well lobbyists like pretty sure they know what the game is about, right? But these politicians and these people in centralized power, they're Greeks, they're academics, they're theories, right? Ron Paul is saying What's working in practice, right? And he continues on, he mentions a couple more things The Romans judged their political system by asking not whether it made sense, but whether it worked, right? And this one he's Declare minded Tom Holland, he was coding Tom Holland, right? And I looked up with Tom Holland Which is why I am and then he continues Nassim, which is why I am calling Ron Paul or Roman among Greeks upon on the dedication of the black swan to Be no Mandelbot, right? So he did, I guess I don't have black swan But I guess he did a dedication to Mandelbot, the person who came up with fractals and mathematics, right? Fantastic, right? Which is a pun on The dedication he made in black swan for Mandelbot calling, I'm assuming he called Mandelbot a Greek among Romans Which is super cool, which is super cool Okay So that's the dedication page. That's where Nassim is coming from Okay, greetings Dr. P. How are you doing? I have the chat open here. So if there's any additional information you guys have or if you've read this, you've got any additional commentary Please let me know I'll definitely like for example Adolf just explained to us what the dedication of Nader really meant which is where he came from and we connected up with what he wrote in the footnotes And the table that he created regarding saints, right? What's what is definition of saints? Now as for this book Now if you've seen the video I put out with Let me find it again where I put out Where I put out an hour now It's hour and 20 minutes of how to read a textbook, right? And I shortened that up into a 20 minute video as well because I wanted to load that up into The language of mathematics series as well, right? On 420 math and math and real-life website, but I'm going to give you the link here to The video the long cut. Okay Now if you recall In this video if you've seen this video Okay, I mentioned that for me the two of the most important parts of the book Hands down the two most important parts of any book you pick up Is the table of contents and the index Okay, and I'm very happy to say you're very happy to say that The table of contents for this book Is The other top you actually Is nice and long He's breaking it down sub categories subfolders basically right So he's got How many pages one two three four five six Seven pages of table of contents and the first 40 pages is basically what we end up reading Is the introduction which is broken down into three books, right book one, which is Untwist Wacked right Apologies about the pronunciations part two is it's basically the introduction is a prologue, right? So part one of the prologue is Untwist Wacked part two of the prologue is a brief tour of cemetery Okay, and part three of the prologue is the ribs of Insertor which is his whole philosophical discussion on uncertainty right and that Takes us to page 47 and the index for this thing. I really haven't used the index yet, but it's a nice index Right, that's a great index. Take a look at this He's referencing a lot of stuff. He's got direct Directly going to where he's discussing Some of the issues some of the key points, so I'm pretty sure after I finish reading this book Like look at this thing so much so much index. I love a good index. You gotta love a good index So glad I catch this stream again, especially in a enlightened mindset. Oh nice Yeah, it's uh This thing if you're in an enlightened mindset Uh You might get lost in a page and then go down rabbit holes, right and just to let you know if we don't We'll take a look at some of the stuff some of the things I've highlighted But this thing jumps around a fair bit and presents a lot of ideas and each one is You know, it's fantastic, right So I'm just gonna read you some Either sentences paragraphs or quotes and stuff like this and if you want to if you feel like discussing this further We can discuss it further or if I if you think I have the wrong take on it Please let me know, right as Nassim has mentioned here Let me see if I can find it Let me find this okay because this is related to What The reading reading reading I swear I highlighted it so I could read it to you guys Real estate But basically in this book he also mentions that You if you're looking to seek information if you're looking to love Not as often reading a thing. I love a good index too. I love a good index too For sure for sure What are the things he mentions in this book where I was trying to find you read it, right? Read it to you, but I'll paraphrase he mentions that If you're in the process of educating yourself, right You Learn more if you reread a good book Right then reading two books Right because in the second read you're going to pick up a lot more from that book And this is one of those books now for me. I'm a slow reader. That's why I've read Some books over again. I may be a couple of books over again But it's rare for me to read a book over again because it takes me so much time That's why I tend to mark up and write up write in books a lot, okay So that said, let me read you just the second paragraph on page Three is the first page of the Prologue book one the introduction, right? And what is what is he calling this? The less obvious aspects of skin in the game, right? Okay Skin in the game and he's this is what nassim is saying what the book is about, right? Skin in the game is both four topics in one a Uncertainty and the reliability of knowledge Okay, both practical and scientific assuming there is a difference Or in less polite words Bullshit detection Okay, and he doesn't like writing out Shit, he stars it so bull asterisks asterisks asterisks t with bullshit detection And Oh, where are we be Cemetery in human affairs that is fairness justice responsibility and Reciprocity, okay see information sharing in transactions Okay, and the Rationality in complex systems and in the real world That these four cannot be Decentangled is something that is obvious when one has skin in the game. Okay, and For skin in the game. He has a little As you know Apostrophe the star and he takes those to the footnote So I'm going to read your footnotes because this is very much related to ethics as well. Okay So for skin in the game, you had a little note reference into the footnote quote To figure out why ethics Moral obligations and skills cannot be easily separable in real life Consider the following when you tell someone in the position of responsibility Say your bookkeeper. I trust you Do you mean that one? You trust his ethics. He will not divert money to Panama to You trust his accounting A precision or three both The entire point of the book is that in the real world It is hard to disentangle ethics On one hand from knowledge and competence on the other Okay, which really relates back to some of the discussion that we've had on ethics, but this is really Taking a discussion in a From a different avenue a different perspective, which is fantastic, right? And he ethics comes up a fair bit even in the introduction of this, right? So I'm going to reference this for ethics. I might be rereading some of the stuff regarding ethics. I've been highlighting the Ethics and whenever sometimes what I do is flip through a book and when I'm searching for a word I look up I scan for that word and I read what I've highlighted regarding that topic All right, so skin in the game is basically cemetery for Nassim and The last the less so I'm just going to read some sentences some paragraphs. Okay The less obvious aspects of skin in the game as the title Subtitle right quote A more correct Though more awkward title of the book would have been the less obvious And italics or quotation marks, right the less obvious aspects of skin in the game Those hidden asymmetries and their consequences Okay So it's basically I like to This title better simpler But to this author skin in the game and this is page Six right now top paragraph sentence really but to this author to himself Quote skin in the game is mostly about justice honor and sacrifice things that are Things that are existential for humans Okay And for me I for myself. I just put risk sharing as a definition of that right so Quote but to this author skin in the game is mostly about justice honor and sacrifice Things that are that are existential for humans But for me that means risk sharing And this I liked I didn't know this was Let me read you this and we're in part one right now Untwist whacked prologue. Okay page seven uh The abrasion of your skin guide Your skin guide your learning and discovery, right? So when you cut yourself you hurt yourself physically physically you're growing up you Learn you grow touch fire you get burnt. You don't touch fire again, right? A mechanism of organic signaling The abrasion so I'll quote again instead of interrupting his sentences, right? So quote The abrasion of your skin guide your learning and discovery A mechanism of organic signaling What the greek called? Pathimata matimata and quote What that word what that phrase means in english is God you're learning through pain if you want to For me if I think about that is You learn more from your mistakes than you do from things you've done right in your life Especially if you're doing business if you make a mistake in business That you're doing One silly mistake might destroy the company Might destroy your project you could do many right things And the project might not Grow exponentially or grow at the pace you want it to grow, right? And then one Couple of good things you do right starts growing you see the fruits of your labor, right? But if you do one wrong thing you might kill it in one shot, right? God you're learning through pain in greek Pathimata matimata I like it because good math Let me read you something that is written about And this is you know that was page Seven eight. This is page nine and now he's gone into war and interventionist, right? Intervening in other countries business and he's When he talks about libya here a fair bit and for anyone that's been following politics geopolitics and stuff like this History would look upon the day that the western powers Destroyed libya as one of the greatest catastrophes in human History in our civilization That's my take, right? Unbelievable and It'll look upon us the citizens of the west that allowed our governments to do this as someone more selfish ignorant caring on Unempathetic people in history really, right? And nasim understands this he doesn't go too deep into it But he doesn't just bring up that I believe he either brought it up here or he brought it up during lectures that I've seen where You know, he mentions that there's open slave markets in libya right now as compared to what libya was before the western governments Bombed it which was libya was the country with the highest standard of living in africa country with the highest standard living in africa in five years six years destroyed by western powers to have open slave markets Wow, right and this is what nasim has to say regarding this mindset Right and I'm going to read You know just a couple paragraphs maybe three paragraphs two and a half paragraphs from page nine Okay, and he's just gone into talking about interventionalists those people who went Who told us they went to libya to? Get rid of a dictator or whatever it is any thoughts or tips on staying calm and confined in an audition or interview type situation Own your audition I guess I've never done interviews I've done for sure job interviews and stuff like this Go go in there with confidence do your homework. You have to do your homework. Hopefully it's not your first interview and if it is Just be calm realize that wherever You're interviewing for whoever you're auditioning for Is looking for the best person for what they have in mind. So really pay attention to what they're asking you Right really pay attention to what they want. Don't automatically try to interpret what they want really rapidly into What you think That means right because the odds are they've thought about that for a long time and they've already covered some of the angles that you might Instinctly start thinking about right so just listen to what they're asking you look at their body posture Try to figure out if that's a really important question that they're asking you it's not like You know, do you like to drink coffee or tea or stuff like this? That might be important to them but more of the intricate question and Before you speak Pause chew your words and then reply Okay Maybe maybe let me read you two and a half paragraphs And don't give up on logic intellect and education because tight but higher order logical reasoning would show that Unless one finds some way to reject all empirical evidence advocating regime changes implies also advocating slavery or Advocating slavery or some similar degradation of the country Since these have been typical outcomes So the intervention into intervention list tasks Not only lack practical sense and never learn from history But they even fail at pure reasoning which they drown in elaborate semi semi abstract buzzword buzzword laden discourse There are three flaws One, they think statistics not dynamics Two, they think in low not high Not high dimensions Three, they think in terms of action never interaction Okay, we will see in more depth Throughout the book this This default Defect of mental reasoning by educated or rather semi educated fools I I can flesh out the three Defects for now, right and then he goes into detail talking about what the three defects of intervention lists are when they go and wage war on behalf of Whatever it is that they are doing right You're welcome to trap it. You're welcome to trap it. You've got something major highlighting here. So let me read you this right The principle of intervention Like that of healers is so do Is first do no harm prima non Nancri, I guess that's latin or greek Right Like the healer so the principle of intervention Like that of the that of healers is first do no harm Even more we will argue Those who don't take risks should never be involved in decisions in making decisions Right and one of the things uh, nasim has mentioned continuously mentions is politicians Right now have no skin in the game they go wage war without Paying the price for it, right? There are numerous leaders in the western world who have committed war crimes wars of aggression line blatant name line All of that has come out And what happened in 2008 with obama coming to power? He turned around and turned to the world and said war crimes have been committed But let's move on forget about the war crimes that were committed Okay, it's no it's no use going and Dealing with all these difficult choices that The people that came to the power before him or warrant the power or the heads the talking heads that were making Waging war, right? It's no use prosecuting them for war crimes, right? That's what one of the major things that do obama administration that so they uh They normalized war crimes Right crimes against humanity, which is one of the reasons we're seeing everything that's happening right now, right? Those who don't take risk and I highlighted this those who don't take risk have skin in the game should never Be involved in making decisions That's fantastic, which is one of the reasons nasim leaves in The draft when a nation goes to war The draft must be in play because everyone has equal chance of going to war. It's not just those who Have no out, right? They have no job prospects. They have no No prospects of going to the cost or too high or they haven't jumped through the right hoops to go into some kind of Higher education or whatnot or academic education. I don't want to say higher education because there's plenty of education to be had living life, right Just something else I've highlighted regarding sub-header Warlords are still around, right? The idea of skin in the game is woven into history Historically all warlords and war mongers were warriors themselves and with a few curious exceptions Societies were one run by risk take risk takers Not risk transfers and that's one phrase that he uses risk transfer, which is politicians now Corporations now they transfer risk on to others on to citizens on to us, right? They are not held accountable okay, and That sort of plays on with What it was mentioning regarding interventionists and stuff like this One thing he keeps on referring to is the Reuben trade and the Reuben trade is basically um, I think he was the head of Golden sacks or something like this and basically was just a scam, right? They knew they created a bubble in the early 2000s And they didn't let the cat out of the bag until they had their full positions buying them insurance, right? And then they let that Let the whole thing drop, right with bank runs and stuff like this and and then they Came out and said basically what the book black swan was about Two books before this I believe which came out in 2007 a year before everything went down the toilet regarding wall street, right? When basically veil Was lifted and one realized oh my god. They knew they were in a bubble. They pulled the scam They sold all this bad debt to people as triple a and then they bought insurance To make sure they made a lot of money when they pulled the rug out when everybody pensions, you know Tens of millions of people lost their pensions lost their jobs Tremendous turmoil, right? And you know and then they gave money to the same people that did this thing and then those people put You know played the accounting game and they formed corporations put them on wall street and they start buying All this land and assets and stuff like this and have created another bubble Same as the cycle that keeps on repeating So this is what he has to say regarding bureaucracy bureaucracy is a construction By which a person is conveniently separated from the consequences of his or her actions right and one thing he does with the book is he's got sort of italics sort of Embedded stuff here. That's sort of you could regard those as laws right his rules his Stuff that stands out some stuff, you know, it's basically something we talked about in the video Where we talked about how to read a textbook when things are highlighted by the author read them Right, even if you're a speed reading read them slow down Okay Decent Decentralization this is what his take is on decentralization Decentralization is based on the simple notion that it is easier for macro bullshit Then it is easier to macro bullshit than micro bullshit, right? So it's easier to bring up the big brush and Make general statements all the time, right? Which is what our politicians do is talking points Instead of focusing in and talking about the intricate right the micro, right? So I'll read that again Decentralization is based on the simple notion that it's easier to macro bullshit than micro bullshit Decentralization reduces large structural asymmetries. So you can for now read think about asymmetries as asymmetries as People that don't have any skin in the game, right? People who make decisions and don't pay the consequences when Things go crazy. Okay Hello next. How are you doing? Welcome to the stream and a recording session? Wow, we're an hour On page 13 of that same book, right? And I'm skipping some of the highlights stuff I've been reading bankers The master risk transfers. Oh, yeah, let me read you this. I highlighted this. I'm reading these things and if I like it I'm gonna read you this thing. Okay. What is your thoughts on string theory? I like string theory I like string theory Serving elegant universe. This book is Have I read any other books on string theory? I might have read another book on string theory I can't remember but this is my quintessential book on string theory This was I knew about string theory by the way back in the 1980s Uh, I knew someone that actually did some of the mathematics gonna wall with some of the mathematics Regarding string theory. So I got introduced. I've been reading little excerpts of string theory articles and stuff on string theory Since the 1980s, but this is the book that I've read that was Fantastic brian greens elegant universe. I'd recommend This thing came out in late 1990s, I believe I read it back in 2000 2001 or so I'm just gonna read another Index one of my biggest pet peeves with tally He uses post-modern definitions of risk to describe pre-modern cultural developments risk and insurance were Were uh technologies developed in the 17th century by spanish Mariners the idea of risk as we understand it today simply did not exist Uncertainly was a product of fortuna not a series of Potentialities potentialities Contingencies potentialities and contingencies so let me read that again The idea of risk as we understood it today simply did not exist Uncertainly was a product of fortuna not a series of potentialities and contingencies. So he's using so index is saying that Nasim is not really using risk in a proper definition of the origin of the word that it was used for Possibly I caught I've caught nasim seen a couple of things one of the lectures By the way, there was a lecture that was put out by nasim Just it just came out here. Let me find it. It came out yesterday. Just coincidence Let me find it Yeah, there it is So this lecture i'm just gonna It was just put out November 8. Yeah, so that's yesterday on google talks, right? and It's worth watching right and in previously I've watched interviews with nasim and Lectures with nasim and he mentions that he's more He's a writer. He's not a lecturer. So he's he jumps around. He's chaotic, right? He's if it wasn't sitting in a classroom right now in a present current education system in canada united states They call them they say he had severe add and they would give him a few pills to pop and say be quiet, right? Thankfully he Is not in a current education system right now, right? So he jumps around a lot. It's a nice talk. I like it I sort of have those tendencies as well. So I like it but just in in regards to what index says where nasim is not using the word risk In the true definition when he came out through the spaniards in the 17th century and stuff like this he's He's Bring out his brushstroke. He's making some of the mistakes. He's referring to us while obviously but in that lecture He talks he puts out a Sort of an image of a peacock, right and then he mentions In a silly kind of way. He mentions that the big peacock tail is useless, right? Now, if you know animal history and stuff like this, you know, it's not because it it's used as You know attracting females and it's also used as protection and defense because you make yourself bigger With animals you can make yourself bigger in nature if you ever if you ever get attacked by a bear A cougar or cougar tracking you you'll pay attention when you're in the woods A cougar just doesn't randomly attack you bears If they don't track humans, right the only reason a bear would attack you in canada anyone I know this because like the geophysicists work, right? The only reason that a bear will attack you is if you all of a sudden Surprised them right or if you get between their cubs And the mother right the bear bear will feel threatened and they will attack you. Okay Mountain lions cougars are different. They'll hunch. They'll hunt you. They'll track you cats. That's what they do So in the woods you make noise to let the bears know That someone's there and you also keep an eye out in the woods In the periphery just to make sure a cougar is not tracking you, right? So If you're familiar with animals, they have defense mechanisms stuff like this But in the lecture he mentions that the peacock tail is useless And then doing a q&a this person gets up during the go talk this person gets up because he asks them a question He challenges or he makes a statement more than anything With nasim and then he mentions to nasim. By the way, you mentioned that a peacock tail is useless as a Evolutionary biologist or something like this. He mentions I want to Make sure that people appreciate that a peacock tail is not useless, right? So he calls nasim Being too general just mentioning that a peacock tail is useless. So that's along the same lines of what index was saying Sorry about the long-winded Link there. Have you seen jpb 12 rules for life jpb? I don't know who jpb is I saw your names. That's not nice No, no, that's okay. It might not be his type of ASMR. That's okay QC warrior, okay, uh, he's allowed to say he doesn't like No, bro, this guy's chilling me out. Okay. Good. Good. We're working for some. We're working for some They actually call him a pop academic Actually a term I hate his ideas are Valuable, but most scholars argue he could be a little more Intellectually careful. Oh, yeah, he has a bone to pick with intellectuals as well with academics as well 100% So I can see why academics would Would not like nasim I'd say I could take a bear in a fight You don't want to take a bear in a fight. The best thing to do is Make sure you never Get in a fight with a bear not a good idea I would agree because he tends to ignore existing research to make his points. Yeah, he does make You know, I don't agree with everything nasim. He's a great writer. I like the ideas The seeds that he plants and the ideas that he throws you on, right? How is this asmr? It's just chill conversation about a book right an important book So let me read you this thing about bankers Okay, uh, but but not to worry If we do not decentralize and distribute Responsibility it will happen by itself the hard way Assistant that does not have a mechanism a mechanism of skin in the game with a build-up With a build-up of imbalances will eventually blow up and self-repair that way If it survives, right? For instance bank blow-ups came in in 2008 because of the accumulation of hidden and asymmetric risks in the system Bankers bankers masters of risk transfer Okay, that's his comment regarding the 2008 financial the scam Hello visa Super engaging writing style and interesting ideas. So yeah, love is writing stuff. I haven't read too many books written in this way And this is exactly the way I like like to read these types of books, right stuff that makes you pause and highlight and take notes and look things up right Systems learn by removing right? Let me read you this as well because this is uh This is uh related to something that I learned when it came to writing when I was writing When I got into writing I learned how to write right. I didn't learn how to write in High school or university. I learned how to write by blogging in the mid 2000s So it was early 30s where we're mid 30 early mid 30s. I guess when I started really Put the time in for myself to learn how to write and something that a friend of mine Told me that was she was editing my work, right? She told me that she said chicho You know, you're done editing your work when you don't have anything else to take out right, so When you're writing and that's the way I I if I have the time I put into it When I'm writing usually and even editing video, right when I'm editing my own work Usually what I do I go through it enough times when I'm tired about tired of going through it, right? And if I can't find anything else that I can take out then I know I'm done. I release it. Okay So this is what he says regarding again subtitle systems learned by removing So quote now if you're going to highlight only one single section From this book. Here is the one The interventionist intervention lista Case is central to our story Because it shows how absence of skin in the game has both ethical and Epidemiological effects related to knowledge, right? I had to look that up before but he's actually Put it in brackets as well, right? Epidemiological related to knowledge We saw that interventionists as Don't learn because they are not the victims of their mistakes and we hinted at with Pathima Matter right what we talked about which is god you're learning through pain Okay, the same mechanisms of transferring risk Again, he's highlighted. This is his He's put in italics, right? This the same mechanisms of transferring risk Also impede learning, right? So if we're transferring risk to other people We're not learning, right? Which is what happened in 2008 when obama came to power and said we're not going to Look into what happened with the war crimes that were committed in afghanistan Iraq torture around the globe with black sites and stuff like this We're not going to look into that, right? Nothing was learned The same mechanisms of transferring risk also impede learning, right? More practically, you will never fully convince someone that he is wrong Only reality can Okay, actually to be precise, reality doesn't care about winning arguments Survival is what matters For again italics The curse of modernity is that we are Increasingly populated by a class of people who are better at explaining than understanding Right? Or better at explaining than doing So learning isn't quite what we teach inmates inside the high security prison called schools Right? I like the sky Really I've mentioned this before when we're talking about education But so learning isn't quite what we teach inmates inside the high security prisons called schools Which is the way I look at our present centralized education system, right? One of the hardest things I have to do when Just to let you know, by the way, you know, just going out and teaching mathematics and stuff like this And interacting with students and I interact with parents a lot because I do private I do group and private lessons and stuff like this either for people who want to learn the material really fast They want to get it over with and move on to whatever it is that they're doing And on the other extreme sense with people who have the system has completely Failed, right? And they don't understand mathematics. They don't understand physics and They need to get through this stuff, right? One of the hardest things I have to do when I'm teaching Mathematics when I'm interacting with students and parents is this I have to turn to them and say listen, I'm not here to defend our current education system Right? Not even close I'm here to tell you that I regard our centralized education system to be complete garbage It's useless If anything, it is By the youth, by kids right now that have access to the internet that can on a Click of a button Find anything they want For them to be forced into buildings To sit into Sitting in desks, which are extremely uncomfortable Bad for the body, bad for the mind Right? For them to be forced to do this five days a week Six to seven hours a day is equivalent to putting them in prison Right? You cannot Expect them to react Well to that, right? It's not a good place to learn It's not if anything it's a place to unlearn Right? So This sentence So learning isn't quite what we teach inmates inside the high security prisons called schools Okay, let me continue reading a couple more sentences In biology, learning is something that through the filter of intergenerational selection gets imprinted at the cellular level Skin in the game, I insist is more filter than deterrence Evolution can only happen if risk of extinction is present Further, there is no evolution without skin in the game So we don't learn without skin in the game A couple of the things he's mentioned here is Systems learned by removing parts via negatep Negativa Right? So editing You know you're not editing by If you don't have anything else to remove Right? Skin in the game keeps human hubris in check Now we're in And everything we talked about so far Well, this is prologue one That was just part one Prologue Up to page 15 Right? And we're into the second part Prologue part two A brief tour of cemetery Evolution of moral cemeteries C table one Let me see where table one is Yeah, this one He's got a table on page 19 Evolution of moral cemeteries And he goes through and he starts talking about Some of the philosophy, some of the ways people Introduced skin in the game or talked about cemeteries Right? Talk about sort of holding people Accountable, right? And for example In this table And table one page 19 Okay Evolution of moral cemeteries Hammurabi Lex Talanya Talinais Hammunabi I had to look this up It was a King Where was it? I had to look up a few things So I'm meshing up the different people I looked up But basically he was a king or something During ancient times And he mentioned This person came out with the law An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth That was sort of the justice system That was prevalent But some people take that literally Nassim says You shouldn't take that literally Because an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth Then if a blind person kills someone else Or takes out an eye You can't remove an eye from a blind person Right? So there are imperfections in that mindset In that law system, right? And then he has another column that says 15th law of wholeness and justice Quotation work Love your neighbor as yourself Right? And this one is He's got the page numbers here What they're referencing and stuff like this And he's got something called the silver rule And I'll read you what the silver rule is And he's got something called the golden rule Golden rule says this Do unto others As you would have them do unto you Right? That's the golden rule I didn't know about the silver rule I like the silver rule Better as does Nassim And he makes a very good point Of why the silver rule is better Right? For and then he's got the last column He's got formula of the law Of the universal law Act only in accordance with that maxim Through which you can at the same time Will that it will become a universal law That's like grand scale Right? Let me read you the silver rule though Okay? Just after we read the indexes comment here In 1992, Hewlett-Bach argued that Modernity was developing into a Risk society Unlike Tali He argued that Techno-ecological developments Produced a global society That makes risk spreading Or risk transference impossible Ecological risk and ecological disaster Become a shared experience He sums it up well In his famous phrase Poverty is Iarctic Smog is democratic Haha, that's cool I can see where he's coming from But I think index for me Risk transference is definitely there But risk transference is there On a shorter term scale I think Which is something that Nassim I think is For me where he comes from Because he's a trader Or he used to be a trader, right? So for me, it sounds like what Yurek Beck is saying I would agree with if he's talking longer term Yeah, that's what I would think Because whatever's happening Happening environmentally Whatever's happening technologically Whatever's happening to the water supply To the air quality To society in general Is going to affect all of humanity But if people are selfish, right? And we have a lot of selfish, self-centered people In our society right now Who are running things Cree ordering society And Nassim definitely overlaps with Jonathan Nitzan, right? For those people They only have a shorter timeframe in mind As far as I can tell, right? They're only thinking 10, 20, 30 years ahead Maybe 40 years ahead They're not thinking 100 years ahead So they don't care if that risk tolerance If that damage, the repercussions of that Is going to play out for them They're either going to be dead and long gone Or they're going to use all their money That they're making off this disaster To buy their properties Wherever they're buying their properties And live in their private cities I think it concerns the severity of the risk Yeah, I guess so Yeah, that would make sense Severity of the risk For instance, a small market crash Versus a 2008 crash Which affects everyone in the market or not I would say the 2008 crash didn't affect everyone It affected some people in a very positive manner Those same scumbags that caused the 2008 crash And the same scumbags that gave them safe harbor And we know who those people are They made out like bandits The general public didn't The general public got burned hard They threw a couple of people to the walls Just made examples of them One of them being Geez, throughout the last couple of decades Martha Stewart, they threw in jail Like seriously Martha Stewart Yeah, I continued that stuff And I saw definitely read that I'm curious You look back So what are we talking about? Brief history of cemetery Skin in the game style of cemetery Risk transfers blow up with systems Risk transfers blow up Let's see, what are we doing? Wow, we've been at this for an hour and a half We're in part two only Let me see where I can find Ralph Nader I've got another point for Ralph Nader Let me read the other thing of highlighted regarding Ralph Nader Go ahead One central thing This established cemetery between Let me read this one too No, no, let me just read the Ralph Nader The well-known Ralph Nader will impose some penalty Oh, no, this is connected to what we read before Let me read you this Because it sort of relates to what he's That seems saying I'm not that literal More practically, some economists have been trying to Blame me for warning Of wanting to reverse the bankruptcy protection offered in modern times Some even accuse me of wanting to bring back the Aguting for bankers I am not that literal It is just a matter of inflicting some penalty Just enough to make the bar room and trade less attractive And protect the public So index this sort of connects up to what we're talking about He's not being that literal He's he's He's got Greek in him He's a Mediterranean in him Lebanese in him Or he was born in Lebanon, I believe But he's Greek He's Greek and he's lived in the United States He's an American citizen, right? But he talks in extremes, right? But the Bob Rubin trade Let me explain what the Bob Rubin trade is Or Black Swan The two books before this Basically Black Swan And that seemed as As he mentioned he was he became a trader And as a hobby he got into mathematics And learned the mathematics And just took off on the mathematics And did a whole bunch of analysis I don't know if I would consider him a mathematician I really don't know, right? Where he stands in academia, right? But one thing he did with the Black Swan From just a summary of everything he's read And Rubin trade He says our present system Economic system, political system Is based on everything working out fine Working out fine Working out fine Sort of like a Gaussian A normal distribution, right? And then in the tails There are extreme events that happen And they're rare, right? And the Rubin trade is this The Rubin trade is As soon as something happens on the extremes In the normal distribution, right? Something happens, you know A hundred year flood Or a thousand year flood happens People like The work for bankers Central banks and stuff like this Or Goldman Sachs And large banks, right? What they do, they come on and say Oh, that was an extreme event We couldn't predict it, right? And because they say we couldn't predict it That was the markets doing this thing Or it was a star You know, exploding in extremely light years away Or asteroid going past the earth Or something like this They say there's no way we could predict this So we should be held liable For what took place, right? That's what happened in 2008 Index is just replying A big enough crash affects Even those who are not active participants in the market It affects even those who try to isolate themselves From market effects Through non-market linked assets Where as a simple trade gone wrong Will not affect the product Oh, okay, cool But you're absolutely right Any market, fair or otherwise Creates opportunities at the expense of others There will always be someone who benefits From others' misery, yeah And if there's a lot of people that are miserable Being miserable And only few people benefiting from that misery Then power is becoming more and more centralized Which is what we've been seeing Taking place Oh yeah Here's the golden rule and the silver rule Okay, this I really like I really highlighted this, right Silver beats gold And this is what he talks about We rapidly go through the rules to the right of Hammurabi Levecces is a sweetening of Hammurabi's rule The golden rule The golden rule wants you, and I'm quoting here So the golden rule wants you to treat others The way you would like them to treat you The more robust silver rule says Do not treat others the way you would not like them to treat you I love that More robust, how? Why is the silver rule more robust? He's asking those questions, right? And then he gets into it Quote First, it tells you to mind your own business And not decide what is good for others So let's read the golden rule and silver rule again That way we know what this paragraph is talking about So the golden rule is this Treat others the way you would like them to treat you Silver rule says this Do not treat others the way you would not like them to treat you So so golden rule says treat other people the way you want them to treat you Silver rule says don't treat others Don't treat others the way you don't want to be treated Right? Golden rule imposes Silver rule says hey, back off Do not treat others the way you do not like to be treated To me, anyway, that's my interpretation My understanding Or the way I'm implementing it Right? First, it tells you to mind your own muscle Silver rule is more robust than the golden rule Reasons being this First, it tells you to mind your own business And not decide what is good for others You know with much more clarity We know with much more clarity What is bad than what is good The silver rule can be seen as the negative golden rule And as I am shown by my Calibries and Calibry speaking Barber, it's Barber, he's referring to a character He's come up with earlier Okay Barber, every three weeks via negativa Acting by removing is more powerful and less error prone Than via positiva acting by adding And this again connects up to what I mentioned What I understand regarding editing May it be editing your writing or editing my videos Right? I follow the rule as my friend recommended Acting by removing Right? That's better than acting by adding Right? So the silver rule is acting by removing It's not adding Right? Saying don't instead of do to a certain degree And then he's got a little footnote on acting by adding And I'm going to read you the footnote as well Scalable equals fractal, that's what I've made in notes myself Johnny Andrews, does everyone asleep? I'm not yet But I'm definitely going to chill out through the stream Okay, so here's a footnote regarding acting by adding Or the sentence that we read Right? Acting, so I'll read that again Acting by removing is more powerful and less error prone Than acting by adding And the footnote is this Do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you Isocrates, Heller, the Elder Something other name What is hateful to you do not do to your fellow This is the whole Torah The rest is that explanation Go and learn Right? So that's a quote from the Torah Rabbi or that's a quote from Rabbi Helvila the Elder Drawing on the Latvias 1918 Do nothing to others which is Which if done to you would cause you pain This is the essence of morality Right? So there are historically Other disciplines that are saying the same thing as the silver rule Right? Thanks, Neat Neat, more Torah Big glad you're enjoying the stream man Thank you And a great book Another nice book Censorship I made a little look at all the highlights I got here Censorship, censorship Let's read the stuff that calls censorship Let me have a sip of dashi I'm going to pop a little muffin Okay? You're enjoying a lot of life lessons A lot of things that you can implement Right? Way of being which is fantastic That was a nice sip of tea It's a really nice sticky muffin It's got blueberries and honey in it Let's read censorship And he's got a little thing on the thing Because I want to read you guys two paragraphs Okay? A sentence of two paragraphs Quote Deal with weaker states as you think It's appropriate for stronger states to deal with you Nobody embodies the notion of cemetery Better than isocrates Who lived more than a century and made Significant contributions when he was in his 90s He even managed and I don't know this person I'm going to look this up He even managed a rare dynamic version of the golden rule Conduct yourself towards your parents As you would have your children Conduct themselves towards you We had to wait for the great baseball coach Yogi Berra to get another such dynamic role For symmetric relations I go to other people's funerals So they come to mind More effective, of course, is the reverse direction To treat one's children the way one wished To be treated by one's parents The idea behind the First Amendment Of the Constitution of the United States Is to establish a silver rule style cemetery You can practice your freedom of religion So long as you allow me to practice mine You have the right to contradict me So long as I have the right to contradict you Effectively, there is no democracy Without such an unconstitutional cemetery In the right to express yourself And the gravest threat in the slippery slope In the attempts to limit speech On grounds that some of it may hurt someone's feelings Such restrictions do not necessarily Come from the state itself Rather from the forceful establishment Of an intellectual monoculture By overactive thought police In the media and cultural life That paragraph right there Applies in our present world This should be something that is written And plastered on walls On billboards everywhere Because right now from what I'm seeing anyway Everybody is trying to censor everybody else Right? May it be platforms, may it be people May it be groups, may it be schools May it be theaters, may it be movie, film It's crazy, it's crazy People are self-censoring I am myself self-censoring I know one seller on eBay That I've bought comic books from And he's a local seller And when I buy books from him I go pick up the books from the store And he used to really leave comments That were funny, hilarious And you know one of the comments would be Payment was faster than a monkey Jumping off a blah blah blah Something like that A few months ago I went in And I showed you guys that comic book A few months ago I went in And I was talking with him And I said, you changed your feedback on eBay He goes, I stopped using the word monkey And I'm like, what? I like it, it was funny He goes, no, no In these times you can't use the word monkey I don't know what the repercussions of that could be And I was like, what? And all of a sudden I'm like, oh wow So self-censorship has reached the level Where an eBay seller, which has got 100% positive feedback writing Is scared of using the word monkey in a feedback In a sentence that was very humorous And he would change it up a lot And he mentioned that he calls his kids, hey little monkey Right? So that's where it's playing out Where is that little footnote? I've highlighted the footnote But I can't find where the footnote is from But I'm going to read you Oh yeah, this is the one So here's a little footnote that he had regarding To treat one's children the way one wishes To be treated by one's parents Right? That was really accurate And you got a little footnote on here A stance against violation of symmetry Appears in the parable of unforgiving servant In the New Testament, Matthew 12, 21 to 31 A servant who has his huge debt Waved by a compassionate lender Subsequently punishes another servant Who owed him a much smaller amount For most commentators seem to miss That the true message is dynamic cemetery Not forgiveness So I like that interpretation He's taken a sort of a message that's in the New Testament Showing that you should forgive debt and stuff like this But he's reanalyzing that and saying That message is not about forgiveness That message is about cemetery If someone else has forgiven your debt Then you should forgive down the line Right? Which is fantastic I like it I like the way he's doing some of the stuff Hmm Here's another sentence I highlighted Behave as if your action can be generalized to the behavior of everyone in all places Under all conditions The actual text is more challenging Act only in accordance with the maxim through which You can at the same time Will that it will become universal law And that was from the table that we read Right? From evolution and moral cemetery in the previous table And I'll read the re-wording of that Behave as if your action can be generalized to the behavior of everyone in all places Under all conditions Which is okay Act in such a way that you treat humanity Whether in your own person Or in the person of any other Never merely as a means to an end But always as the same time as an end Wise words And I think that's Kent He's quoting Formulation Kent as it gets Universal behavior is great on paper Disasterous in practice So I'm going to read your paragraph Coding or a couple paragraphs Maybe we'll see where it takes us Okay Why? So he's asking a question Universal behavior is great on paper Disasterous in practice Why? As we will Be labor at nozom Nozom in this book We are local and practical animals Sensitive to scale The small is not the large The tangible is not the abstract The emotional is not the logical Just as we argue that micro works better than macro It is best to avoid going to the very general When saying hello to your garage attendant We should focus on our immediate environment We need simple practical rules Even worse The general and the abstract Tend to attract self-righteous psychopaths Similar to the interventionists Of part one of the prologue In other words, Kent did not get the notion of scaling Yet many of us are victims of Kent's universalism As we saw modernity likes the abstract over the practical Practic Particular Let me read that again As we saw modernity likes the abstract over the particular Social injustice warriors have been accused of treating people as categories Not individuals Few outside of religion Religion really got the notion of scaling Before the great political thinker Eleanor Ostrom About whom a bit in chapter one Okay In fact, the deep message of this book Is that the danger of universalism Taken two or three steps too far Conflating the micro and the macro Likewise, the crucifix of the idea of the black swan Was platonification Missing central but hidden elements Of a thing in the process of transforming Into an abstract construct Then causing a blow up dangers of universalism Right? So the dangers of universalism So he's basically saying things have to be We have to Everything is not scalable So there are situations where we have to treat a certain system Only with local rules and those local rules Cannot be extrapolated to universal rules From cat to fat Tony And fat Tony is another character that he has that he talks about What does fat Tony say? In New Jersey here, let us move to the present To the transactional, highly transactional present In New Jersey, cemetery can simply mean in fat Tony's terms Don't give crap Don't give crap, don't take crap Right? Don't give crap, don't take crap His more practical approach is Start by being nice to every person you meet But if someone tries to exercise power over you Exercise power over them Hello, chaotic tool Gijo, sleepy waves, how are you doing? Welcome to another stream Regulation risk, options trading How we do it for time Up time Oh wow, we're almost at two hours We're almost at two We're halfway through what I wanted to get done We're on page 23, 22, 23 of a 47 page election part System's yet smart by elimination What should we do? What should we do? We throw cats And I have so much more stuff highlighted here What are we talking about today? We're talking about Nicholas Talibs Nicholas Talibs Nassim Nicholas Talibs skin in the game Right? We've been doing some meetings, discussions, highlights What should we do? As you can tell, my throat's getting a little raw Reading this And that felt great Oh, my pleasure, index I think we're gonna call it a stream I think so So we got to page 22, 23 Thanks for being here, index, by the way And all the info, fantastic, fantastic And who was the person you mentioned? I guess should I scroll up? Where was he? Ulik Bek Ulik Bek, you've mentioned him before I like that guy, Ulik Bek, actually, I think I look them up, I'll look them up again Sexual Yeah, I don't know Looks like we're getting horrid trolls coming in, maybe I hope you guys are reading this Better than trolling, I'm telling you I'm telling you, I'm telling you This book will troll the crap out of you Okay, if you can take it If you can take it, if you can take it So that's sort of the intro to this book Half the intro, anyway, there's another 47 pages What I'm gonna do is I'm going to Because we're recording this And I think the sound is still going okay Cool So I think what I'll end up doing is We'll leave it there If you guys end up reading this book I hope you give it a shot If you find anything that I've skipped over Or I misinterpreted Let me know We might come back and I might do another stream Continue from page 22 And most likely those streams Probably in a couple of days I'm gonna do another announcement Of when the next streams are gonna come up They're most likely gonna be coming up on Wednesday, Thursday, maybe Thursday But I might do a stream Wednesday, Thursday, Friday I might do three days back to back Maybe we'll continue with this to read a little bit more And I do have some ASMR math found out to do A little comic books planned out to do I have some stuff related to our Raymond Feisriff or Saga plan to do We'll see if we can do it or not Okay Beard, very massive It's a good beard Ah, that's what it means maybe Maybe, no, beard, very nice I mean, no What you reading? No You came late brother We've been going two hours on this This is what we're reading Highly recommended Highly recommended Okay I provided links at the beginning of the stream to Nassim Nicholas Talop's book Skin in the Game Challenging read Very good read Very educational read Aside from that gang Thank you very much for being here And I hope you enjoyed it And I hope you have many many Happy happy hours of reading to do Okay I'll see you guys in the next stream And the next video Bye for now

The ethnolinguistic cure: Endangered languages, well-being and health
Justyna Olko
University of Warsaw
Abstract: Over the last two decades a growing body of research has revealed a strong correlation between Indigenous language loss and deterioration in speakers’ health. However, the retention of heritage languages also appears to play a protective role in addressing health crises and lowering behavioral risk factors. In this talk, I will present the results of multidisciplinary team research carried out within a Language as a Cure project in a number of minority/Indigenous communities in Poland, Mexico and Salvador, representing different stages of language endangerment and loss. Our research reveals that in different groups the use of ethnic minority/Indigenous languages positively relates to their speakers’ well-being, taking into account the role of positive emotions experienced when speaking. These findings are also reflected in the results of a broad online survey carried out with participation of these minority communities during the pandemic, suggesting that minority/Indigenous languages play beneficial and protective roles during health crises. Importantly, this relationship is significant also (or even especially) in communities strongly affected by language loss and assimilation. This knowledge could positively influence the empowerment of speakers of endangered languages and help shaping more efficient strategies for language revitalization aimed at reinforcing not only the language use but also the well-being, health and socio-economic performance of their users.

Thank you, Joey. So it's my great pleasure to introduce Professor Yustina Olco from the University of Warsaw, who's going to be talking to us about recent research into what she calls the ethnolinguistic cure, what she'll explain all about it, I think herself, that's much better than I can, about how languages can be a real benefit to people, particularly in recovering from historical traumatic situations, which of course we can see at the moment all the more relevant, unfortunately. So Yustina is a full professor at the University of Warsaw. We got to know each other through collaboration on a three-year project funded by the European Union called Engaged Humanities, which made links between people all around the world involved in Engaged Language revitalization. And Yustina is carried on working in that field and she is now, I think, is it the first woman in Poland to hold two major European Union grounds and also the first person outside the hard sciences to do that, which I mean she's really good in her field, she's not just a rising star, she is now a star in the heavens in our field, so very pleased to introduce her and welcome Yustina. Hello, good afternoon. I would, I won't, I won't follow with any introduction. You know my name is Yustina Olko and I'll be speaking today about not just my individual research, but team research that relates to the ethnolinguistic or language cure that can be applied to communities speaking Engaged languages, not so much applied, but actually applied by them to successfully revitalize a language and lower and higher and I'm sorry, and counteract some adversities like historical trauma or the impact of ethnic discrimination. And I will start with some, sharing some general thoughts of that relate to linguistic theory theory on linguistic evolution that perceives small languages in the context of this of this broader evolutionary trends and I'll start with the quote as if a smaller fish gets into contact with a big fish it is the smaller fish which is more likely to disappear, which sorts of says this agenda or this inevitable path of disappearance for local small and vulnerable languages. And this is in accordance with the notion it's of course difficult to question because it is many ways true that speakers operate in the linguistic market in which languages like modern terracurrences acquire economic values. And this also has a profound impact on locally spoken languages. And another quote from Salito Comofuene, just as ecologists say to roll the dice in biological evolution languages also evolve at the mercy of socioeconomic outcomes in which they are embedded. While I agree with this statement, I want to emphasize that some implications that the most important implications of this theory included this notion that speakers of indigenous languages abandon their heritage times in their efforts to achieve socioeconomic advancement and benefits associated with merging with the dominant society on a path of assimilation. And whether some scholars may argue that there are benefits on this assimilation path, we are also becoming increasingly aware of the consequences of the loss of heritage languages that involve trauma, poorer health, including higher rates of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, psychological problems, and even suicide rates among the youth, the children and the youth in endangered language communities. And this problem is especially silent, has been especially salient in the United States in the reservations and also in Canada. So this evolution is not neutral to speakers of endangered languages. And this is the point I want to make in the beginning of this talk. On the other pole of this spectrum of consequences of language loss, we can also look for benefits. And one of such such paths, beneficial paths has been established by a social psychologist working on so called social cure. This is an idea introduced by Jatin Haslam and Haslam. And basically, what they emphasize, and they have found out a lot of experimental research on that, is the role of positive social identities that are important for achieving positive physical and mental health outcomes, deriving from meaningful belonging in social groups with a range of different, it can be very different contexts. The social identification is especially important when we think about the sense of belonging to local communities. And this belonging unlocks a range of psychological benefits with positive implication of health is also a growing body of evidence on that. However, this research does not explicitly include the use of endangered languages, just the social, the role of social identity. In the team project called languages secure linguistic vitality as a tool for psychological well-being, health and economic sustainability that we started in December 2017. And I co-directed this project along with Professor Miho Bilevich, social psychologist from the University of Warsaw. We wanted to look both at the positive role for the maintenance of heritage languages and also immigrant languages on the one hand, and on the other hand, on the consequences of language loss and ethnic discrimination on the well-being and health of community members. One of the first results that we had in achieving this project related to our work with the WEMCO community in Poland. In general, the project embraced several ethnic minority groups in Poland, the WEMCOs, Vilamodians, the Kashubians, and in the last step also the Seligian and Ukrainian immigrants, and also speakers of Nauat in Mexico, speakers of Nauat Piquil in Salvador. And in the last stage also we launched some research in ethnic minorities and immigrants in Italy in Calabria. Regarding these first results, and this is the publication of research that was mostly headed by our former PhD student Magdalena Skrodska, it focused on the role of the usage of WEMCO in the context of historical trauma, because the WEMCOs are one of the most historically traumatized communities in Poland as they were victims of the displacement action called Operation Vistula in 1947. They were taken away from their land and forced to settle in areas where in Western Poland where they were subject to harsh assimilation policy. In this case study, we looked at how people who were born after the Operation Vistula and did not experience this event themselves, how they were assuring the facts of historical trauma, transgenerational historical trauma. And we found out that even if people who speak the WEMCO language more frequently share a higher level of availability of trauma, they are aware of this trauma, the history of the community, because it's mostly or to a big degree transmitted in the WEMCO language. Those who use the language more frequently have lower symptoms of historical trauma. And this line for frequent speakers and the dotted line and the solid line is for very users of the language. So this led us to the conclusion that actually speaking the language provides a sort of protection or shield against the negative effects of historical trauma, the symptoms of trauma which were examined within a separate trauma symptoms scale, even if all these people share the sense of historical traumatization. So this was the initial funding and then we saw an important line of our research focused on studying the relationship between language use and different forms of well-being, of indigenous or local well-being. And I have to say in the beginning that there are several limitations or challenges to this research. First of all, of course we knew by studying previous research that the retention of indigenous languages has been linked to the well-being of these speakers and has been perceived as acting as a protective factor for psychological and physical health. For example, it's associated with lower levels of diabetes among indigenous people of North America or as a factor lowering almost to zero suicide rates in Native communities. But the exact nature of this relationship between language and well-being and also positive health outcomes continues to be elusive. And to make things more complicated we have to say that the construct of well-being is used in psychology and other disciplines is not clearly defined and it's used interchangeably with notions of health, quality of life or the sense of happiness. And also a broad number of studies across the world including very interesting research carried out in Australia and New Zealand has shown that using traditional Western criteria of well-being including social, economic and psychological well-being doesn't really align with indigenous notions of well-being. And that we shouldn't use this Western tool to assess the level of indigenous well-being because indigenous people tend to have a more holistic, relational and collective view of health, happiness and good life. And we have to account for this in our research and it differs from community to community. What is important also to emphasize is that culturally and indicators of well-being in previous research do relate to language attention, cultural continuity, autonomy and the sense of belonging. So here you can see there's some kind of possible connection to the social cure mechanism and this was one of the ideas that guided our research. In our approach we introduced a novelty and this novelty was actually that we did not include a sort of variable if the language is present or not but we measured in our panel studying all of these communities an actual frequency of use of the heritage language and the dominant language in different domains of life. Also we also measured emotions as positive emotions and negative emotions associated with speaking. In this way we want to emphasize and recognize the emotional dimension of that non-linguistic vitality and also of language use, attachment to local identities and language use. And here we drew on very important research by Provenco that shows that emotions mediate in linguistic decisions and in linguistic choices and are crucial for maintaining desirable identities and also rejecting those identities which are not quite desirable for speakers. The results of this research are published in open access in this paper that you can see on this slide. It was just published online three months ago in cultural diversity and ethnic minority psychology. It's a team research that includes also our indigenous collaborators from Mexico who carried out the field research for this positive relationship between indigenous language use and community-based well-being in four Nahuas ethnic groups in Mexico. These are the ethnic, the Nahuas groups in Mexico. They are in several regions in Jilitla, Chicomtepec, Clashcala and Atliaca and they differ very much actually despite sharing some cultural values and basically the same language that's used in its regional variants, they differ in terms of language attention and the degree of assimilation toward the dominant culture. And it's actually very important to differentiate this and not treat other speakers of this language as just one homogeneous group because they are not homogeneous. They live in different socioeconomic conditions and so for example in Atliaca in Guerrero and in Chicomtepec, traditional economy and social relationships have been preserved to the biggest degree according to the last national census. 80% in Atliaca still know the Nahuat language and around 60% in Chicomtepec and they also practice in Chicomtepec traditional forms of religion that's providing a strong support to the community and rituals. Jilitla in San Luis Potosí is more intermediate so it's still there's considerable language use around 40% at least and and some forms of traditional economy but it's very much eroded and they did the communities rely on state's help and sort of like mixed economy and in Clashcala which is more urbanized zone close to Mexico City and the assimilation has been the strongest so the language loss is severe with a few speakers left and almost no children speaking the language and young people being passive speakers and also this almost full transition to wage economy in Clashcala and this is important for the outcomes to understand the outcomes and if you if you if you look at this this diagram that shows language use it's actually very well reflected which you can see here this is based on average values of declared frequencies of language use of Spanish and Nahuat in different domains of life so this this this purple line here indicates the the average level the average value for equal use of Nahuat and Spanish everything that's more toward the center in the interior of the circle is almost only Spanish more Spanish or exclusively Spanish everything that's outside the purple line the violet line is more Nahuat or exclusively Nahuat and here you have the different communities so you can see Chico and Tempec in Veracruz is most the vitality of the language I mean the usage of the language is as the biggest followed by Atliaca then Hilitla the intermediate community say intermediate on the assimilation path and Clashcala is very much reduced you can see here and the domains that are still present it's obviously with parents and grandparents here in traditional ceremonies and family events also when using when uh when uh recurring to local health specialists or healers right it's still pretty pretty strong and neighbors these are this this this community-based networks of language use but it's dropping very much with children even in these traditional communities which shows that the transmission is no longer in place we were expecting to find a higher vitality in Atliaca because according to the census results the there are 80 percent of people knowing the the language then Chico and Tempec but in our survey it actually came out as lower a bit lower than than than Chico and Tempec but this is actually explained by the age of participants at the survey so here you have a number of participants of our quantitative survey from each community the total of 552 and in Atliaca you can see that the age average was just 33 years whereas in Chico and Tempec was almost 60 years of age so this explains the difference because the older the people the more now they use uh which this explains the distortion probably if we compare speakers of the same age Atliaca would have the similar or higher rates of of now at use okay so this was our sample and I want to comment on on basic instruments we used so we relied on the methodology of social psychology here even we also included some social linguistic tools we we we as much as was possible we we tried to adapt this to local conditions so for example such a local local tool was a well-being scale the scale means that there are a number of questions that relates to a common topic and then you calculate average values um from answers um on these scales on the scale from one to five for example indicating frequency or how much we agree with a certain statement and this gives you variables that refer for example to the level of of well-being and this amic scale of well-being was was developed for the purpose of the present study to reflect community-based well-being and was entirely based on on qualitative research in the communities and the main author of the scale is our researcher PhD student Gregore Haimovic and he he worked out the scale along with community members then we use the Spanish and now at use across everyday domains the results you saw on the previous diagram then we we use the scale measuring positive emotions related with the use of now at so and also negative emotions but the the analysis show which are actually positive and which are negative emotions what do you experience when you when you speak the language and we use also a purely psychological tool used in many cultural contexts satisfaction with life scale overall to develop back in the 1980s that measures a more individualized psychological sense of well-being and we uh we wanted to test the hypothesis that the relation between the use of now in in the family domain and community-based well-being is mediated by positive emotions that speakers experience when they speak they had this language so these are this this this this two models it's actually one model um and I'll explain to you so we have uh now at use in the family domain that's mediated by positive emotions and uh how it relates to community based well-being and you can have the direct effect and you can have a total effect here measured that includes the mediation role of positive emotions then we also and this model worked we basically found this path significantly significant but we didn't want to generalize to show the same effect for communities that differed so much in terms of their language attention and their ways of life so we uh we created um an actually person that's responsible for the for the calculation of this model is um is professor Katarzyna Lubieska from our university cross-culture psychologist uh she calculated a moderated mediation model that she introduced the belonging to a specific ethnic group so the four groups that we have and it turned out that the only uh statistically relevant path for this moderated model was for the community of Akiaka the one that's most traditional that supposedly had more according to their sense was more most use of Mawak and indeed it worked because uh the direct effect uh was not significant on the total effect where positive emotions were in play and this path that people who uh to speak the language experience most positive emotions are related to Mawak and they have a higher community based well-being that reflects their sense of happiness uh based on community networks of support uh spending time with community members generally having good interpersonal relationships in the community and this was the partial mediation and then we also since this was not significant for other communities we tested another hypothesis hypothesis number two that there is a direct relationship between community based well-being and the use of Mawak in the family domain we use the family domain because we knew that it was uh the one that worked okay we couldn't achieve uh I would say uh reliable results when when when checking how uh who domains that were basically absent like the usage of church or in uh with authorities influence well-being because we know that people really don't don't very rarely use they had this language there so with the test hypothesis we we looked at the direct relationship across the groups without looking at the role of positive emotions we assume that uh if they don't speak often enough then this emotional dimension may not be as active as with speaker who speak the language on a daily basis and this was the model so there was like a direct part between language use in family and community based well-being and moderated by belonging to the group and it turned out actually that this model worked very fine for the remaining three communities uh you can you can you can see here uh Attyaka is in the that had this um mediated uh emotionally mediated model is in the lower this is the lower line and the effect was not significant it was significant for Contla which is here the most Contla Intlashkala the most assimilated community then for Helitla which was in the in the uh let's say uh medium level of assimilation and then for Chicca de Pepe but the effect is is the strongest for uh the most assimilated community of Contla Intlashkala here you can see the levels of well-being here on the left side you see low use of Nahuatl in family and high use of Nahuatl in family so you can see for speakers using more Nahuatl in family they have higher sense of well-being and this effect this effect is the strongest in the most assimilated community where very few people are very rarely or I would say rather more rarely use Nahuatl because there are there people who are secret speakers or uh uh you know speakers speakers who don't really use the language every day but when there is a safe space or family events or or some kind of celebrations they do use the language or with with other members of the community and it didn't work for Attyaka because there the model really the path the mechanism was based on the level of positive emotions so we concluded this part of our research in the the following way that the protective role of heritage language use with regard to well-being may be stronger in the communities that are more affected by assimilation processes than in more traditional communities because these communities are more in the need of healing and restoring recovering from historical trauma from assimilation pressure and even if they don't use the language very much it does have a very positive effect on how they feel this is a very I think a strong point to make for communities in favor of language revitalization and to make it more explicit about what kind of community we are talking about these are some uh some uh some uh fragments of interviews from our uh quality field were carried out in this community of complaint that showed the amount of of shame and suffering associated with language use which obviously had this impact on the fact of that the transmission has been uh uh broken or almost broken uh so there is one uh one testimony here about uh schooling and the discrimination at school my mother told me that when she was at school and also my father-in-law was telling us the same that they would beat them if they spoke now what so they were speaking Spanish not now what and you know people don't really uh talk too much about these experiences they are too painful so um and also about the sense of guilt of not passing the language to their grandchildren and children and another testimony perhaps one or two persons still talk now uh this is about a neighboring community San Pedro del Coapan but the majority no longer speak it has already perished they are ashamed they do not want to speak and even even in this context the the the impact we could really find evidence quantitative evidence for the positive impact on um of language use on on on emig will be but I also want to stress that this this is not so simple because the general context is a context of very harsh ethnic discrimination and its long elastic effects in they let's say counterbalance and it positive there's positive effects of language use and we cannot forget about the other side of the coin so using the same data along with the the experts from the um medical college of the Avalonia University public health experts uh professor um um uh professor Groszinała Jesieńska, Dr. Andrzej Galbarczyk, Karolina Miukowska and also community members community scholars uh in Mexico we looked how uh the symptoms of PTSD related to perceived ethnic discrimination and also acculturation stress experience in the workplace are associated with health outcomes and they do they are associated with higher risk of poor self-rated health in all of these four regions in Mexico also we found that acculturation stress discouragement of language use so people get you know discourage against using the language avoiding to speak the language because of different reasons and discrimination ethnic discriminations were related to a higher risk of depression and PTSD so this research implies that ethnic and linguistic discrimination acculturation stress and long-term effects reflected in the symptoms of PTSD are important predictors of poor health and depression among the SNOWA groups in Mexico and there's also research in other cultural contexts outside Mexico I'm not aware of any similar study like that in Mexico but on other continents again um US, Canada and Australia are leading in this kind of research that shows the negative outcomes of ethnic discrimination and we also related this statistical outcomes to qualitative research provided by indigenous researchers that shows this research shows long lasting effects of violence, discrimination, acculturation stress of our children at school and this is very um uh difficult situation because they say uh there are some healing mechanisms and protection mechanisms in the community you can resort when you are harmed when you are afraid when you when you suffer the the loss of your salt and elderly you go to specialists but they did not apply to school children just outside the context of ritual practices so the the parents would recruit children for poor school school result and would eye themselves with teacher discrimination against children who come to school don't speak Spanish and they have to start to do everything in Spanish right away and some of them they went to three, four, five grades we don't learn Spanish and they were beaten they were they were do a mug they were offended so on and they couldn't really get any support in the community and uh it was also experience of some of our collaborators so this has lost it has left long term um symptoms of PTSD even in the elderly people that when they were talking about their school years about their youth times what kind of stress they experienced because of that uh we also uh wanted to extend this model and and and verify this model in our in in other case studies uh looking at this uh this association uh between um uh zekal between well-being and and language use and actually uh we we um Professor Rwanda Ducz-Pfeiffer who is a WEMCUR researcher had this hypothesis that uh among the WEMCURS it would work uh the the the path the the mechanism for enhancing well-being will not be based on the usage of language at home but on the usage of language uh in public domains because this requires courage this requires uh consciousness awareness this this um this uh is associated with more um personal um sense of um uh um well I want to say courage but also um um uh it it it more contributes uh confidence your confidence as a speaker it contributes more to the sense of self achievement uh because WEMCURL language obviously is still spoken in some families but it's absent from public life in Poland so when you want to form the spaces and use it you have to find these obstacles and indeed what we what we tested and this was the in this case the analysis were were performed by Magdalena Skorocka we found out that indeed when we looked at the the relationship between the usage of the WEMCURL in different domains in the family domain and we looked we included positive and negative emotions in the model and we did not include the psychological scale swls the psychological well-being it was not significant for speaking the language in at home but it was significant for for those uh for people who use the language in public and it actually uh this part is significant but only in uh it's significant when we look at positive emotions so people who use the language in public uh have more emotional emotional attachment to the language and they have higher level of individual psychological well-being so this this this result is pretty clear and we also uh carried out similar uh studies uh looking at immigrant uh Ukrainian immigrants in Poland it's not based on the current context it's based on uh on data collected in 2018 and 2019 and here it didn't work that way the situation of immigrants is is different what what we found out was a positive uh positive uh was a statistically significant mechanism was the use of immigrant language in family again positive emotions were in play and life satisfaction was higher but this model uh only worked in the indirect way so the positive emotions have to be um in considering the model because the direct effect is negative so the direct association is the model of her immigrant language you speak the lower your well-being is psychological well-being is in the sense of achievement you know realizes self-realization confidence is lower and this is uh this is even more complicated when we consider there are some important differences between uh speakers of Ukrainian and speakers of Russian uh and because the the bilingualism of of Ukrainian people is is is very complex and in um generally as speakers of Russian perform well uh worse in the um in terms of occult of acculturation and it was because even before the war Russian language was more associated as the language of Russia and not the the national language of Ukraine Ukraine Ukrainian language has been promoted in the last two decades as the national language and many speakers of Russian adopted the language even if they spoke Russian at home so you can imagine how the situation is is even now is more complicated now for those Ukrainians who are um speakers of Russian uh in this context so I don't want to develop this this line any further I only want to to to say that this is a very um pressing issue now in the context of war refugees who are not just uniformly speakers of Ukrainian they are mostly bilingual speakers with different family experiences of using both heritage languages also the Russia right and this this study requires a lot of um we have to be very careful when drawing results from from this kind of study and we have to contextualize this and we'll be working on the on the Ukrainian case study uh in in the future to to look at the the connection all of this also implies that there are both costs and benefits of language of appellation uh because the communities are on the one hand exposed to trauma that's associated with their ethnolinguistic identity but they also can potentially the ethnolinguistic cure that they can unlock for their own benefits and to deal with trauma and this costs and risks also extend to the revitalizers of the language and this is precisely one of the topics explored by uh our PhD student or the project members Yustina Mayerska Scheider from Villa Mavice who is a community-based scholar she is a speaker of the Miss Yerusha highly endangered language, Germanic language evolving in Czech and Polish environment since the 13th century and heavily persecuted and discriminated against after the Second World War that is almost perished and here on this picture you can see two revitalizers of the language persons whom the language is thanks to whom the language is still used and spoken in some spaces in the community. Yustina Mayerska Scheider and Yustina is currently finalizing her dissertation titled local concepts of well-being and cultural revitalization the case of Villa Mavice and here are the the major fundings of Yustina that actually relate very well to other points I'm making in our points we are trying to make in this project and actually provide some more context for a better understanding of these challenges. So right now the Miss Yerusha which is a highly endangered language spoken in southeastern Poland a southwestern Poland is an element of social identity and people a lot of people perceive it as an important factor enhancing their amic sense of well-being but the language has been transformed from the coat of a narrow group of speakers who use it in hiding during the years of persecution and discrimination afterwards the years of trauma to a more inclusive many medium that also raises children and youth from neighboring communities who oppress the Villa Mavice in this violent post-war events we sometimes say that they are the grand children grand children of the oppressors of Villa Mavice who want to learn the language and it's become a medium that's used by by the Villa Mavice youth and also other people on site who are willing to learn this highly endangered language and there's a positive association between strong local identity higher levels of amic well-being this is what Yustina shows and also engagement in language revitalization but language activists and users are more strongly affected by historical trauma and language discrimination they are they are you know basically this this this front line if there are attacks or attempts to to ridicule the language to discriminate the speakers they are they are the most affected people by that and according to the quantitative survey the same kind of survey but carried out in Villa Mavice they're also more exposed to persecution and they feel pressure and burden related to language survival and this is reflected in their self-assessed health the poorer health I mean they feel that I mean we can see that Yustina has found the relationship between between this engagement in language revitalization and poorer self-rated health but even so they report that the heritage language is a tool for healing and improving their well-being but this is as you can understand it's an ambiguous situation it's a situation that you have to take into account when planning language revitalization and cultural revitalization activities in highly traumatized communities that are still object of ethnic discrimination even if it's not overt even if it's more covered also in state policies so these results may significantly inform more sensitive and more effective language revitalization strategies and what is clear here is that we deal with some something that people working in language evolution would say these are these adaptive responses and they go against the principle of utility maximization because these people should really adopt the majority language they should abandon languages that don't to perish but they are not doing this so these are apparent on the above I mean what I want to stress from my perspective they are apparent anomalies with the language choice model the rational language choice model and minority groups are quoting Latin sometimes resist assimilation and refuse to disappear from the historical stage as the Vilamovians and a very salient case from our research comes from the Kashubian case study Kashub's live in northern Poland northwestern Poland and they have been in 2005 the language has been recognized as a regional language although they are not recognized as an ethnic minority and in the beginning of the project we carried out a survey at the linguistic vitality survey in this region thanks to the collaboration with Kashubian activists and this is published in plus one here you can see that the title of this from discouragement to self empowerment and we found out that up to 61 participants admitted that at some point at some point in their lives they had been discouraged from speaking the language the heritage language Kashubian and to up to 63 percent this had happened very often and 70 percent in 2018 were still convinced that some institutions advocated against speaking Kashubian so the discrimination is ongoing even if many individuals and institutions deny that and in this collaborative paper we found out this this path that actually people because we first noticed that there's an associated between experienced discouragement and enhanced language used which was kind of like not very logical right you will get discouraged and they use the language more often but we found out that positive emotions are again a driver a driving force in this process because they mediate between the experience of discrimination people who are discriminated who are discouraged to use the language developed against rejecting this suppression they developed a positive emotional attachment to their language and they in the consequence they use the language more often now and we have to say that this is not representative for the whole Kashubian community because people who participated in the survey probably were people because it was announced through Kashubian media so these were more active and more engaged individuals who care about the language and are interested in supporting and continuing their identity for more active individuals this is the path the self empowerment path path that can overcome the experience of discouragement discrimination and they decided to use the language more often thanks to the positive emotional attachment to the language and we think that the similar situation might be with the Silesians who are the biggest over 500 000 speakers of the language unrecognized the biggest unrecognized ethnic minority in Poland and who fighting for years to have their language recognized and in vain so far but hopefully it will be recognized in the in the near future and there is this quote from from a Silesian writer Sztupan Fardov translated English there is some perverse way in which every bit of contempt and scorn shown by Poland towards Silesians makes me happy for each such act there is a person somewhere out there who decides to go against and to nurture their Silesianess but the reason I mentioned in the Silesian Silesians here is that they have been most harshly affected during the covid pandemic because of the outbreaks of of disease in their migrations and they were more or more tested so Silesia has been stigmatized during the pandemic they were it was called a second Lombardia so come to second Lombardia in Poland and there were a lot of hostilities against people coming from Silesia or from first Silesians who were blamed for for spreading the the the pandemic in Poland and since both of them the Silesians and the Kashyos were historically traumatized during the war period and after the war they were heavily persecuted including post-war concentration camps for Silesian or first assimilation of children both in Silesia and the Kashubia they shared the sense of historical trauma also unrecognized and also the people of Mexico carrying the sense of historical trauma we decided to to look at the possible mechanism retraumatization mechanism during the pandemic for people who felt discriminated against as ethnic minorities during the during the the pandemic so we had this variable based on a number of questions assessing covid-19 related discrimination if they were stigmatized, shouldn't be against or had worse access for example to health facilities we looked at the historical trauma availability the the tools were adapted to the historical experience of each group and the symptoms of this trauma psychological symptoms and we also measure general anxiety disorder this study was performed online during the pandemic in in Poland in Mexico and later in in Italy between June 2020 and January 2021 so the first phase of the pandemic so this was the model and indeed we found out and these were various statistical analysis performed by by Katarzyna Lubiewska across the three groups and indeed the mechanism was was significant in a way that you can see the Kashubian group so people who were discriminated during the pandemic had a higher level of general anxiety disorder which is a medical condition is a medical scale that we used but this was also mediated by their sort of reactivation of the sense of historical trauma so this is a mechanism that explains a phenomenon across observed across the world that indigenous people were more vulnerable to covid not only because of economic you know economic conditions but also they were already the groups that are already traumatized are more often retraumatized and more strongly retraumatized during such disasters and crisis as the pandemic and the results were even stronger for the Silesians and indigenous people in Mexico because there was no actually when we looked when we included historical trauma into the model there was no significant direct effect between discrimination covid discrimination and and the general anxiety disorder it only works through the trauma path so this has confirmed the mechanism of retraumatization of indigenous people and i think minors during the pandemic which obviously also has impact and implications for working with these groups in the post-pandemic world but when looking at these results we also we have also been able this is mainly the work by Bartek Romig in collaboration with me and Johanna Mareña we also look at the possible language period in the pandemic and we found out that one of the predictors in the regression analysis that reduced that the general anxiety disorder among the Silesian and Kashubians was the active use of the heritage languages it was a negative predictor of God of general anxiety disorder and it referred to languages across different domains of life but this model was significant only when the impact of historical trauma was taken to account so we cannot forget about this so concluding going to the conclusions i would say that speakers of minority and regional languages help us question some simplistic theories about linguistic culture revolution social economic advancement and optimal acculturation strategies what are really optimal acculturation strategies because among acculturation strategies we have a more positive integration that that is based on the retention of local identity culture and the language and we have a simulation that means abandonment is another strategy that's negative from our point of view that means that you have to abandon your ethnic identity and your language and merge with the dominant society it might not be it is not an optimal way for local communities to go because of the cost long-term costs and effects they have to pay so the speakers actually of this community help us overcome the limits of what is bound to rationality it doesn't take into account this broader picture and one of the mechanisms that can one of the mechanisms that we propose in this team project to consider is the ethno-linguistic cure obviously our point of departure was a social cure but the social cure doesn't really look at the role of the language and when we when i when i speak about ethno-linguistic cure i'm not speaking only about the language i'm talking about the whole world of relationships in which the local languages are embedded and this includes local networks of support of support that are vital that are crucial for the sense of amic well-being they are how the how the languages connect to local economy traditional knowledge interactions with the environment usage of the resources all of this all this universe where the language of which the language is is a vital part and our research shows that even if it's embedded in this relationship when we just look at the language use using quantitative and qualitative data we can account for its beneficial role for speakers of endangered languages so this is this vital element that doesn't act alone it needs friendly environment both inside community and outside the community but it is a vital part of this of this beneficial mechanism this is this is the point i would like to make and in the end i would like to include the long list of contributors to this research because as i said this is not an individual research it's a collective research that embraces resources from different disciplines and also researchers from local communities and community based experts who are behind the creation of our tools carrying out the results and also interpretation of these results so this is very important point that i want to make thank you for your attention i'll just thank you so people on zoom can hear me we'll start with questions if anyone in the room has a question or something like this here you can discuss further okay so are there any here in the room i'm gonna question later there are some some awesome questions on the chat oh there's a lot i wasn't able to follow this good so um jenathan if you've got your hand raised why don't we go with you if you want to unmute yourself and ask a question yeah now thank you very much joey and thank you professor olko that was an extremely stimulating and interesting paper a huge amount of data to get one's head around so forgive me if i misunderstood some of what you were communicating so um you were saying at one point which is undeniably true right that well-being as understood in western context don't seem to align with indigenous understandings of well-being which differs from community to community which i'd agree with but it seems to me that we should want to know as you say you know how this language well-being connection operates and i suppose one way of doing that would be to see how generalizable it is so one question would be you know how how best to do that uh to see if the connection holds outside of say you know north america or australia so relatedly you also seem to rely heavily on subjective well-being measures in your in some of the studies you cited but you also quoted objective well-being measures cited by scholars in canada early on in the paper for example but you seem to be more skeptical about those so i suppose i'm i'm trying to sort of bridge those two things right how can we generalize if we're interested in the cognitive social psychological dimensions to language and well-being and while at the same time adopting this thisemic approach which undeniably is incredibly important okay um first camera exactly yeah okay it's very difficult because i cannot look at the people who are asking questions yeah so um maybe i cannot move because they want people right yeah so i'm very skeptical about using so-called objective measures of well-being what would that be economic indices we know they don't work because in australia and also in our communities the committee is collaborating with us in mexico according to the general economic criteria they're much poorer than the rest of the society but nevertheless they report high levels of happiness okay it doesn't work that way what i what i think is a possible solution is always to study first how local people conceive their sense of happiness and good life and what are the factors and the criteria and then you can construct a meaningful tool that has to be cultural sensitive it cannot be used for for everybody but also you have some general psychological tools like the scale we use for satisfaction with life scale and we had a lot of um concern if because it it taps individual sense of psychological well-being and we know that the collective dimension is important for a lot of communities so we didn't know if it's going to work but it worked actually in the sense that it reflected it had a different level of of well-being so i think if you use different tools one that's amic and the other that's possibly etic or you can you can also adopt this external tool modified to fit your situation the main thing then you can really hope for achieving some reliable results but i think an important part is to always contextualize quantitative results before launching any survey and after having receiving the outcomes with a local expert really to contextualize what kind of sense these results make in the community how we should really understand them so this is something that we it's one of our conclusion that's that's important to have community involved both in the design of research creation of tools and carrying out the research in cultural sensitive ways uh so that because some questions can traumatize the community so if you have outsiders coming to the community you know they can traumatize these people even more and we all also become aware of this in our in our in our project um and you you just need local researchers to be partners on the project and also even if we have quantitative results when i or other people presented this to our experts from communities and we discussed them what this really means we got another level of understanding how to how to how to understand and interpret these results so i think testing some universal tools is okay but you have to be aware they might not work but elaborating cultural sensitive tools is a way to go and only after that you can you can you can you can perceive some commonalities between communities and not anticipate that these commonalities must happen and they you know impose this this this press positions uh what the the sense of happiness happiness is right based on our western criteria or based on research in other indigenous communities so this i hope i answer as i answered your question lots of food for full thank you very much thank you welcome to more questions i see saligo mucuña has his camera on and his work was cited early in the papers i don't know if you have a question or something but you'll have it on yes first of all i'd like to thank justina for the thought-provoking presentation and covering so many different parts of the world to prove her point but i'd like to also make a correction and invoking socioeconomic structure is not in order to speak of economic advancement is in order to speak of economic competitiveness of economic survival when in the case of Mexico for instance the colonizers have changed the socioeconomic structure that puts the indigenous people under a lot of pressure to adapt to the changes and people can adapt to the changes in many different ways and when people for instance choose to speak Spanish in order to participate in the new socioeconomic world order it's not necessarily because they want to advance to the top of the system or whatever the for them is a matter of sustainability compared to a traditional indigenous socioeconomic structure that has been destroyed so this is something quite realistic for them and the your surveys seem impressive but my reaction is that they are also one sided because you have focused in the case of Mexico you have focused on the populations that continue to speak now at all but you haven't told us about the people that have shifted to Spanish on the one hand people that are successful in the new socioeconomic structure what is your assessment or what would be your assessment of well-being the people that have shifted to Spanish but are not so successful what would be your assessment of the welfare of the well-being and this is a kind of rejoinder to Jonathan's comment and what are the determinants of well-being it would really be interesting if you had involved some psychologists working with you that may give you the criteria or the perception of the subjects well-being so there's a side of the story that is missing here as impressive as your statistics are you know there are questions that remain unanswered and if we go in the style of David Layton the people react to these new challenges in different ways in which we have tended to generalize other populations but without really discriminating among individuals because people have the individual responses whatever we can generalize over a population we have to remember that the population as such is a construct the Asians are individuals and we have to pay attention to these things so I think that there is you know there are your conclusions remain question-building although they are really and I must underscore this they are directing us toward interacting more with specific individuals and finding out how this year thank you I'm sorry I couldn't hear well the last part the last part is that your conclusions although I found them question begging they are stimulating and they are in encouraging us to pay attention to the behaviors of individuals before we can extrapolate to the level of populations okay yes so the professor move on and thank you very much for this very very rich comments and regarding the evolution yes I fully agree with this observation that actually due to the the forces of the of the market local and global economies and how local economies are embedded in global economies obviously this there's a strong pressure on speakers of and regional languages local languages to to to assimilate and it's a very complex complex phenomenon it's universal it's universal what I was what I was what I was trying to say that this comes with a cost and this this was what I was what I was saying and also in in terms of in the social political reality in which we are embedded we sometimes here I myself heard this with regard to to members of ethnic minorities in Poland if they feel discriminated against where they don't abandon speaking the languages is the most easy part just you know let them do that and they will there will be no reason anymore to discriminate against them right so many people opt for this for this road and nevertheless the the cost that they pay is high I'm not saying this happens in every single case and you're right that it would be extremely interesting to have a study group for people who originated in these communities and no longer speak the language we hadn't done it it was not the purpose of our project but I think it would really complement this kind of research to have this this perspective you you are talking about we did include people who don't speak indigenous or ethnic minority languages anymore in our in our study we did include them so the general effects were calculated not on the basis if we have speakers of the language but our criteria from the criterion for including this participants was if they declared belonging to this ethnic minority if they feel indigenous or if they feel Silesian if they feel Vilamovian and if they feel you know any of these groups and actually most of our participants in Vilamowice did not speak the language they assimilated to the to the to the Polish language so we actually they felt we observe the impact on health the sharing of trauma and so on is on people in a huge degree on people who no longer use the language we did not make a separate group in our analysis for those who speak and those who don't speak we can actually run analysis like that and I think it's a very good idea to see to see that yes and regarding the representativeness of this this I want to emphasize that our research was not on a representative samples it would be impossible given the nature the size of these communities also and maybe it was representatives for for for Vilamovians because we had 300 participants and the communities of several thousand people so it's a huge huge part of it but for other for other case studies we could not physically make personal in-person questionnaires with representatives number of people so obviously the results are statistically significant but we do not extrapolate them and I said it very clearly with the cashews we do not extrapolate or generalize these results for the for the for the whole community and we did compare some results for in the covid survey for people who identified as minorities and those who don't and we found out some interesting differences and we found the differences actually across all our groups so in Poland for different minorities in Poland to give you just one example and for people in Mexico indigenous people in Mexico and we embrace many indigenous groups and also non-indigenous participants who who feel the survey we found out that people who are indigenous or minority had a much higher level of protected behaviors during the pandemic than the general population which shows you that people of these minorities are more self-protecting probably because they were not just thinking about their individual lives but also the the endangered status of their communities so they they protected again themselves against covid much stronger and this is statistically significant for Polish minorities and for Mexico and we compare this we were able to compare it with the outlook and I agree that if we could do more comparisons like that obviously it would bring a very very interesting and more complete picture of what we are looking at just a significant amount of other questions we have Julia Salami here with us so as the question okay thank you very much Christina that was really interesting I was wondering if you have any plans for making use of this information for practical purposes with communities yes yes uh was one of the purposes of this project and we actually prepared along with community members this has focused so far on the ethnic minorities in Poland we prepared a practically oriented publication in five languages Polish and for other local languages in Poland it's called minorities and their languages during the pandemic anti-stigma package and this basically shows the ways in which ethnic minorities are stigmatized or discriminated against for that the possible solutions to that strategies to counteract it and also how the use of the language can help in different domains of life so this is this is actually ready and it's in actually in press now and we will be distributing this these packages to the communities activists NGOs and also policymakers to make them aware of the the effects of and the scale of I think discrimination in Poland and a similar package is being developed for Ukrainian immigrants and it's it's actually this work coordinated by our Ukrainian expert and we are she's including also the the the current context of of the refugees because you know we can imagine for example one problem is the admitting this this this stance of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian children in Polish schools and basically they are treated as indigenous to the Mexico there are some introductory classes to make them more familiar with Polish and then transition them to Polish entirely and have them make a school in Polish so this is the the current model and you can you can you can imagine what kind of impact it has on this children which already carry war trauma and then they they have to be schooled in a foreign language right away so there are so many challenges and we want to also share this this this this knowledge and also possible share possible suggestions for solutions how to how to deal with this this real challenges that are affecting minority and immigrant children right now so there's one more question that I'm sorry professor literacy yes there's a quick question for me I would be asking if your research took into account whether the language is using written or yes one of our skills was to assess self-assess language proficiency so we had separate questions tapping oral skills and writing skills yes so we've also looked at this and we found it in most cases to be of little utility really because very good speakers very often they have very low level of self-declared literacy confidence okay so it wouldn't really tell us very much about the vitality of the language so in fact we did not include we have this data but so far we haven't included this in any analysis because I was very confusing so so the question so maybe with this question and of course if you want to continue the discussion longer than anything other for a minute what is this yes I just wanted to highlight the fact that your presentation really makes obvious something that we should be paying more attention to that language endangerment does not come alone that language endangerment comes with a number of changes in society and actually in the approach that I have adopted like treat language as technology for communication and you put it in a number of other cultural phenomena then you must notice for instance that the healthcare system has changed that the what religious system has changed and so and while we are worried about language endangerment a logical question is shouldn't we be worrying about these other cultural changes for the population and in the cases of interventions that you have cited what appears to be obvious to me is that that there is a complexity of things going on for instance in the case of immigrants dealing with COVID and so forth it's not just health issues it's other questions regarding the insertion in the host population and so forth and the kind of isolation that there may be experience all these things come together so if a person comes to you and speaks to you in a language that you are familiar with it's not necessarily for the purpose of preserving or maintaining the language it is also for the purpose of establishing some special connection so that other issues can be dealt with and also speaking communicating with people in a language that they understand better than the alternative that is another factor so I think that when we focus on global aspects of language endangerment it's the local global aspects of language endangerment that should really receive priority over the worldwide global aspects of language endangerment which for me are fiction thank you thank you very much thank you very much for this comment yeah and I think that it's very difficult actually to find a balance approach to accepting the overarching unstoppable change in you know religious practices economy social structure and finding the current place of local languages into changing social structures and economies but also try to value and protect traditional knowledge that's behind this this community and that for example it's so crucial for stopping adverse climatic change or for managing the resources I think this is the challenge for the community should work out finding the balance between the change and retaining this kind of knowledge that can still be applied even to these conditions that are under a very dynamic change so this is a secure challenge and where the local languages step in what's their current role because obviously we cannot go to the past and it has to be adapted to these new conditions and I don't think there's a universal recipe for this a universal approach to that this has to be a sensitive to local conditions and to what the community wants I think this this this will of the community and their own vision I think it's it's something that has to be taken into account in the first place thank you for your presence and your comments and and the question thank you so much

Here we are with back we're live. It's my goodness. It's one o'clock. We're left at one o'clock one o'clock rock here on a given Tuesday and We're having Asia in review. We're talking about Immersion programs in language talking about the new globality of language and we have our special guests to my left Russell Lou Hi Russell Yeah, yeah ma baby I raised you to you. I'm a Ohio. Oh, I was I must informed citizen. Whoa These guys you put them together. It's like nuclear. May I say? Okay, so today we're gonna talk about language because you've been talking about language for a long time Russell You've been talking about language and the signs and the airports in Hawaii and we're missing something What do we what do we have what do we need and what are we missing? Well, well, I am from my living in China in Asia. There's a new global standard, right? I mean, I mean a ray, but Jay you can call me Ray. I'm getting confused But there's a new global standard and that is that in Asia the new standard is Not only the language Chinese but also English English has been taught there for 40 years It's a it's a core requirement. So the youth that grow up Can't speak English can read and write English and so that's the standard And so the the question that big three raises is we want to be global. How do we do it? Why I think language is important key and for example, we only speak and learn English here and Now the big language is here. The main four languages are going to be Mandarin and Spanish Aha Which one would you pick first? Which one would you pick Ray? well, since Hawaii is geographically close to Asia and the all these statisticians point to rise in Chinese tourists and visitors and an investment that follow and and of course of the need for a bilingual Workforce from Hawaii to do business in China and Asia. I think Mandarin is is quite a good good option going forward Yeah, what's interesting is that tell me if this is a syllogism or a tautology? Asia is speaking English Everybody in Asia now speaks English Therefore the 21st century if the 21st century belongs to Asia and I think it does You know, it's then the 21st century belongs by reference to English. It's already there. We already have that don't we? I mean, there's no place in the world that doesn't speak the Taliban ISIS they all speak English. They communicate in English So it's a message here. However, it got this way. The world is now Communicating mostly in most places not only Asia, but it's communicating in English And one thing I'd add what Bray has said is that picked up is it's the language of money What's the language of money these it's Mandarin and I've been there for quite a few years 13 years and as way back when I first arrived in China, Koreans were studying Mandarin and College kids from Korea would spend a whole year studying Mandarin and now I even see Japanese students There's African japan from Japan coming to China to to learn language So but which ways are going to go? I mean, it's a provocative question Is it is everything going to go to English or is everything going to go to Chinese? It's sort of it's it's relative to you know Economic success. It's relative to power. It's relative to who knows which way the wind blows But just as easily as you can say study Mandarin everybody You know, we can also say study English everybody, but the deals are done at the dinner table And you're all speaking Mandarin. That's the difference and the agreements are drafted in English because if there's an international dispute the body of laws are much more Developed especially the Chinese money is going off out. They expect that it's going to be English language will govern some of the agreements But the point is the deals are made in Mandarin So, you know, there's still I think what the second largest accounting Maybe the third is Japan a third now third now because China moved into this acquisition But you know strikes me that what happened to Japan? Why? Why isn't Japanese as? As attractive as a global language as as as popular as a global language than Chinese Well, it was if you go back to the 80s, we remember There was a rise in the Japanese yen the Japanese economy was driving Japanese manufacturing Everybody looked at the decline of the US and Japan is number one by Harvard professor Vogel. There were many things going on In fact in in Hawaii, I think what happened though that we didn't strategically kind of plan this to deal with the enormous Tsunami away from Japanese visitors. It just came to be there was a pool of Japanese speakers for example, my Mother worked in retail in Waikiki. She she was part of this post war, you know Immigration of people who married you know Like people like my father moved to Hawaii and there was a pool of people who could speak Japanese and Years before that there were many people who studied Japanese. So we didn't have to suddenly begin a program to educate Teach Japanese there was a pool ready to deal in a duty-freeze with the lawyers and and CPAs and all kinds of real estate brokers there were already a pool of them and That we kind of stumbled into and did well, but we really didn't plan for it Right. It just came our way. We were lucky and we we were happy with being lucky But you know, I don't think we took any affirmative steps about this It just happened we had an affinity with the Japanese. We had a connection with the Japanese So it fell in our in our trap. However I just want to add that my sister teaches Japanese language at Farrington High School a DOE school in in one of the last advantage to our neighborhoods districts in Hawaii in Honolulu and Most of our students are not Japanese They're Filipino Samoan native Hawaiian and others Micronesian whose parents working Waikiki And there was an economic incentive for them to tell their children to learn some Japanese That would get you ahead of job in right get you ahead in Waikiki in in the hotels and so that's an added value So Ross and I always talk about there has this economic incentive What is that economic incentive to you know invest in your child to learn a language? Yeah Oh good point. But what about the Japanese kids in Farrington? Why aren't they taking good and natural? If I grew up in an household and we spoke Japanese I'd have an advantage Well, that's a whole decline of Japanese language instruction in in In Hawaii there used to be many like the Danny know is would write about you know running from Japanese school before the war And then of course during the war everything was shut down the Japanese instruction and culture and religion was suppressed after the war That was it's something that the Japanese language never really Came out of and then the 50s saw People like the Danny know is coming back and learning English to go to law schools right law schools and politics and Government and joining the big five that all took English Yeah, and to excel in English made it made you a better soldier a better government worker a better Well that that did happen And we can't let Russell off the hook here because it happened with the Chinese the same way Right, you know if I offer a course in Chinese and Farrington high school the Chinese won't go They don't want it anymore. They're beyond that. They're assimilated. They know these these truths You know that Ray is talking about I want to get ahead speak English But what happened there? Well, you know, it's really interesting while we were talking the subject I was just at the University of Hawaii up thinking maybe I should sign up for a Mandarin course to keep my madman boy. I show up in there I don't see a lot of white kids these kids are from the mainland it looked like and so You know it's part of not only Rays pick the word Planting somebody's got a plan this and think down the road. That's why China has Had the economic miracle because they plan even it was a comedy state. They said we're to have our kids learn English And start from first grade. So that's the language of business that's the language of law and I teach at a law school in China and All my students English or in Chinese in English and they're all excellent English speakers and I have them right in English and Most of third of them now to half now are going to US law schools Very good schools Columbia and why you including master's degree master, but now it's they're doing JD degrees and all these major law Schools the top 20 are going to China to find these students to speak English because they get their New York license And they work in the US and they have understanding of Common law practice as well as a huge disparity I think and then in the Chinese equation Yeah, the Chinese come here. They have English. They learned English early. They can cope in the schools It's not a barrier for them But we don't have a population of kids that can speak Mandarin and they don't go You know you have so many situations where you see that disparity. It's only one-way street And we really have to fix that and and the sad thing about it is Hawaii Theoretically is in a position to fix it, but Hawaii has not fixed it Hawaii hasn't sent anybody really of any consequence You know in numbers to China to learn anything in either Mandarin or English even though You know, you could also go to a school and learn it in English like from you. So We're missing something don't you think well, I Kind of differ on you slightly in the 1880s to King Kala Kawa sent Hawaiian students to China and Japan. They're still there. No but Program to jumpstart the economy for Asian exports, so but you're correct that That when I was at Harvard once at the Harvard Baker Library, I saw newspapers Like the China Daily in Chinese I'd realized there were students taking MBAs who were from mainland China The reverse is not true yet. We don't have people from Hawaii You know going to China and and becoming part of that yet, right? Yeah, well it take it will take an immersion program That takes students from when they're like infants to be immersed in a lot of language and for the Two languages to be at the same level go ahead and I think I think would raise touch upon I think it's it's something that it's a new concept of bringing language here in our schools and it's it's important because We're not going to go there Why not have language being taught here and and and I think that again the word that we talked about is planning Somebody's gonna have to plan and think go ahead Somebody's gonna say this is good for us, and and I think the problem is I don't think it's just limited to Hawaii I think the fact is Americans. We have a higher standard of living We are very comfortable Differentiate Hawaii Hawaii is you know a place with a lot of Asian people You know families who are Asian and they stand a better chance I somehow of learning these these family languages, but they don't do it and the schools don't do it And if you went to DOE and said my name is Russell Lou and I want you to teach Mandarin or my name is Ray Tsuchiyama And I wanted to actively get these kids involved in Japanese. You have a lot of resistance They would say these kids have other things to do They don't have time for this and we're not going to have that program And so we we we have left it all behind when we've talked about the Geneva of the Pacific and all that We want to be the Switzerland of the Pacific We really have to have multilingual capability not just fall back on local language can't do that And that's very important that multilingual capability is important because it's a human resource That's going to draw investments Investments in the operative term draw investments. It's a human resource We talk about the grand ideas lawyers talk about we want of international arbitration, but let's face it Do we have Interpreters do we have people in the finance area who can speak the language of Mandarin? Where you want to bring these disputes here? And it's a great idea American companies and Chinese have disputes middle between the two places and we're in a culture. That's Western Asian great But you know what we don't have the human assets. We don't have the resources We don't have the language capability and that's very important That's why if we look it back at the China lesson for them to succeed for them to draw investments They had to make sure that their own people could speak English in the early years 70s and 80s When they wanted the foreign money to come in they wanted American companies come in They had to have and they planned it that way to have a working force that spoke English You know we had a show on think tech radio and HPR a long time ago And we had a woman named ho I came up for her first name That'll come to me and and we and she was she's the one who for years and years ran the Mandarin program at Punahou And we had the the dean of a language school at UH and the very distinct impression I had out of it was that Punahou was doing a better job more students more interest more, you know productivity and And I don't understand why that would be Because Punahou was a private school we can't have that and if you go to Farrington right now, do they teach Chinese in Farrington? Yes, I'm happy to hear that. I mean that's harder because that's not all the coin of the realm in Waikiki But I you know if we want to do we want to be globally relevant We really have to do this and that means we have to get off the standard curriculum and put other things in there and Make these kids speak multiple languages. They don't you know I mean you'll have to agree with me that since your day Ray Fewer and fewer people fewer people speak Japanese on the streets. That's that's correct 90s when they all came around Everybody was belling up to that by learning but they're not here now and so we don't do it And it's even worse because you know people from Peoria when they look at Hawaii think that we know everything about China and Japan Contemporary business technology products and experts and that's not true But you have an excellent point and and I'll give you a country that bet the farm on the future Singapore and now Singaporeans all of their Chinese But they spoke Hakka Cantonese more than Mandarin But they chose to simplify Chinese to teach to read and write and that's the way of writing on the mainland mainland China so again, they took a long-term view of Business and and developing you know relationship with mainland China So they did it the Chinese, you know mainland Chinese way unlike Hong Kong and Taiwan which has a different writing system traditional So triangle Ray says is why can't we be the Singapore in the US? Singapore's small place. We're small place But they chose to bring that Chinese world there and it's great for the opportunity You know, I as I say to everybody being in Asia for quite a while the last great opportunity for money For anyone globe is the Chinese That's where it's going to be at You know, we cut with cutbacks in military here There's cutbacks in federal spending. So what do we have to offer again? It's a human resources and it's the people that can speak the language and I and then you're right because I think that this is a In culture environment here that fosters both different cultures by cultural as support New plan on In break, but I'm break now. Okay, right to Tiana Russell Lou will be right back.

Thanks for watching think tech this summer We have a lot of terrific shows of great importance And I hope you'll watch my show to every Tuesday at noon as we address sustainability issues for Hawaii They're really pertinent as the World Conservation Congress approaches in September and the World Youth Congress that's focusing on sustainability Next year as well. Have a great summer and tune in at noon every Tuesday Back and Ray was saying during the break where he went to school They spoke multiple languages like five languages for the dean of the school Referring to the early 20th century Fern elementary Mayor Elementary here. Oh, yes in Cali. You went to Fern elementary. That's right. High school. No, no, no but joke and their fern was One the first election for what was new whole new city and county and he spoke What I've read at least four languages and again, it was a time when when schooling was not Institutionalized remember the always started to with Thomas Dewey's idea on the new American 20s and 30s was a great vibrant time with mainland instructors coming in teachers from very good Colleges looking at Hawaii as people look at Congo Yeah, third-world country of Vietnam and going to Maui. My father had Shakespeare and Proms and and the mathematics and Latin at Maui High School class of 37 So but it was focused on English. There were no other language except for French or you know Or Latin at that period. So creating a new American was was the key there and what is but we're the 21st century What is the new American today? He's not multi-lingual sorry to say well that just to add with race talk But the reality today is is that the new America is changing the new America includes groups of people that Historically, you know, we're not there now the Hispanic populations rise so Spanish is important But then you know, I think getting going down to this thing There's a really answer we can look into of a small place in Minnesota called Minnetonka and Minnetonka has come up with out of the box thinking and They have a language immersion program that starts kids from kindergarten learning Mandarin and They're they speak Mandarin And they learn Mandarin up to the I believe the second grade and in the second grade then they're brought back into English programs and so It's incredible what they're doing Why can't we do that? We can Well, can we do it at the State Department of Education level be practical Ray? What do you think this is? Again at the top levels of the state What is the strategy going forward for our society moving forward to make us special 20 30 make us proud To make us global to make us relevant to make us and you know in other countries like a Canada Where there are provinces that are Officially bilingual officially in many many ways that you take One language up to fifth grade or sixth grade and then at a seventh or sixth grade you take all courses engineering history And and science in the other language Wow Because that's the only way to learn sure why is language restricted to just language or literature, right? you know, why can't you explain physics in in French or Spanish, you know, oh that would be so great. That's all you do. That's all you do, but that's the bilingual Promise government, but again why I met the people who put their Children who are English speakers put their children in French Immersion schools because the government hires only people who are Profession native in those two languages. So there's an economic incentive economic incentive What if you know at a certain time in the future you have to be proficient in two languages to get a state job or city job? For example, and that would change the nature of the society So we have a lot of people who are becoming proficient over the past what 15 20 years in in Hawaiian And I think that it's not exactly what we're talking about Is it because that native Hawaiian language is not going to draw people from all around the world? I went to Alamo one. I don't go to Alamo one much I went to Alamo one last weekend and I said to myself this place is really global every brand You can think of from every major city in the world is here. It's huge. It could attract it does attract people from everywhere So why can't we sort of ride, you know coattails on that and make this an international place? Where the clerks in these stores can speak any language? Let's become a European or an Asian city and be able to handle every tourist from everywhere Won't that help tourism answer? Yes. Oh, yes. Yes, and the good thing about it is that You know as I travel around the world also. I'm finding that Many times I can use Mandarin in Europe I can use Mandarin in places you would not think and there is interest around the world and So I think it's becoming language. It's becoming much more standard in business I've talked to people for African lawyers in Mandarin and I've talked to Koreans in Mandarin. They don't speak English, but they speak Mandarin So it's it's not only just it's a it's becoming becoming a ling a lingua franca and lingua franca And it's it's happening now, and I think what it really takes here is is is Planning the right steps and okay, so you're talking about action what action we have to do and who does it? I think we can follow this Minnetonka model. We can start a small program We can do it in certain schools government or private with this is this should be in the public school system The private schools can do the same but and it's interesting because Minnetonkas is Minnesota The University of Minnesota did some research on that and they found that these kids that they took in that were an Immersion program top Mandarin from kindergarten second grade that English started second grade and By the time they're fifth grade there because their ability to use the language their English level is that of a 11th grade student 11th grade student, but I want to add something I used to think and you probably used to think too that when you're young it's easier to learn language But that's not entirely true You can learn it as an adult also and why don't we teach the adults to in an immersion program? Yes, and then again, I guess it because adults maybe have more obligations no time when you're young You have the time and that's and and they said that the research showed that when your child you have You have in your mind system. You have the ability. There's more In your mind that allows more open. Yeah more open to learn the language a second Yeah, and so as I've shown especially in New York Times that a beam bilingual trilingual delays to mention Also, and that is a great boon. So I'm in B12 according to the New York time But that's a big boon in terms of insurance Hospices hospitals all kinds of societal thing goes back to bilingualism but and and but I want to stress this and this is the You know, we can talk about thinking our box and about bilingual programs, but I think there is a great assumption fear that back going back in the 50s and 60s that bilingualism of trilingualism especially with Hispanics in the US that it delays English that that you cannot speak both Languages as well. You see that's not true and that you come up with people who are Not profession in either language, you know, Spanish nor English and that is a consideration We have to fight against because whenever you do that. Oh, you're in a merchant school That means you're going to be speaking later, for example, and our daughter did speak later but it doesn't mean that You can develop a you know databases of words in your mind to language and so forth and There are other people like Joseph Conrad who wrote his first book on a darkness when he was 41 years old in English And that was a third or fourth language Vladimir Nabokov English was Mindset that yes, we can do this. Yes. We can be multi-lingual I mean to think of Europe all the people in Europe who speak four or five languages It's not hard. No, it's a matter of saying well, I have to do this. I'll do it. Oh, we're out of time you guys I hate this part, but since since you guys are such pros Ray I want to offer you the opportunity to wrap up and to say farewell to our listeners and Russell will follow you But could you would you mind doing that in in in Japanese? That's a little too much for me but I think You Violent with people like myself we speak Japanese and English all the time. I think it's very easy to speak two languages It's not hard. It's not difficult It's very hard to interpret because you want to be very precise in that word because it doesn't exist in other languages And I spoke I always spoke both languages a home and again That's another thing that parents When they put their children immersion language, which is outside what they speak. It's a great risk. It's a gamble It's it's it's an investment also But again, what how does that child turn out, you know 10 20 years later? That is a wholly different Exciting individual who can contribute to side. You've got to build global kids and people Russell Can you close and can you give me some Mandarin anyway? Okay, just want to say that I think that having a second language opens doors it really opens doors to the world You're able to communicate with people. There's a self satisfaction and today's world is economic opportunity It's all about that and it's really relevant and I believe that by having a second language You are really living a global world and today's world is a global world Let's let's not kid ourselves and to be part of the global world We need to be tuned in and that's important having a second language Yeah, and the other side is if we don't do that We're gonna pay a big price going forward and so are our kids in the future of this state Russell Lou, Ray Tsuchiyama, they're great Asia in review today We've been talking about the new globalism of language right here at home in Hawaii. Thank you so much you guys. Thank you Thank you

Hello everybody, and welcome to this session webinar about the value of international cooperation and funding opportunities. I'm Julia Parkel, I'm the Secretary General of NEMO for the ones who are new in this NEMO European Museum conference. This is the last day, but we have quite many sessions in front of us. Before I give the floor to our moderator, Ludwig Kuiper, I would like to make you familiar with some of the technical details for this webinar. Your camera will always be turned off. If you have any questions, please post them in the chat in the Zoom function. And we also want to inform you that all the webinar will be recorded so you can access it later on our channels. So now, without further ado, I'm giving the floor to Ludwig Kuiper, who is managing or moderating the session together with Margarita, Sani, with Jenny Xiong and Pierre Johammari. Thank you, Julia. Good morning, participants. Welcome to this webinar about the value of international cooperation for museums, a toolkit to get started. Today, we are going to talk about international cooperation. The background of this webinar is that in 2019, NEMO ordered a valuable study with an analysis of museums participation in the four main EU funding programs from 2014 to 2018. NEMO did this to get a full picture of which museums and from which countries profited from EU funding in order to ensure the best possible access from museums to their future EU funding programs starting in 2021. The outcome of this study was very insightful, but also slightly worrying. Out of the cultural institutions that profited from the Creative Europe program, the main program from the EU, only 6% were museums. And for the other three programs, Erasmus Plus, Horizon 2020, and Europe for Citizens, the percentage of the share of museums was even less than 1%. Therefore, the working group at Focassie drew the conclusion that museums do not use all the EU resources that are there. Following this study, the working group at Focassie started to think of instruments to improve museums' knowledge about international cooperation and access to the EU funding. We as a working group, for which I am the chair, that's why I'm also referring to it, we came up with the idea of a toolkit providing museums with a map how to navigate the international cooperation and EU program landscape and help museums get access to the resources that are there. That's what brings us together in this webinar. Margarita Zani has done an impressive job in creating a toolkit with practical tips, but also a lot of valuable background information. She will start with a presentation on the EU toolkit. If you have questions, feel free to submit them in a chat. We will have time for a Q&A straight after Margarita's presentations, I will be your moderator. Then we will have two cases from Pirio and Jenny, who will share their experiences with international cooperation and EU funding, and share their lessons learned. Now I want to introduce the speakers a little bit more in detail. First of all, Margarita Zani works at the Institute of Cultural Heritage of the region, Emilia Romagna, where she is in charge of international projects in the museum field. In the last 20 years, she has designed and managed several EU funded projects, in particular on museum education, lifelong learning, and intercultural dialogue. She's an active member of many professional museum associations and networks, among which NIMO, ICOM, and the European Museum Academy. Then our next speaker is Pirio Hamari. She is an experienced heritage professional who has been working with heritage management and policy related questions at the Finnish Heritage Agency since 2001. She graduated in archaeology in 1996 and even received a PhD in 2019, and initially worked in the archaeological field work and site management as a researcher. In 2001, she moved on to digital heritage management and policy development as a senior advisor. Then our last speaker of this session will be Jenny Seier, and she is head of education in the Chester BD in W. She commenced her post at the Chester BD first as the best Chester BD first education of 2000 and has developed the first multi and intercultural learning program in Irish Museum. Her work involves engaging with the Islamic, East Asian, North African, East Asian and European collections of the museum. There are numerous programs, including intercultural projects for schools, cultural festivals, and creating links with local multi-ethnic communities. With no further ado, I'd like to give the floor to Margarita for her presentation. Thank you very much, Ludvig. I will start sharing my screen right away, but I should be able to share the screen, and at the moment it tells me I can't. My office can go ahead and use the presentation I sent, or else please let me be able to share my screen. Right, so here we go. The value of international cooperation for European museums, a toolkit to get started. That's what the advocacy group of Nemo asked me to do and to prepare, and this is what I've been working on in the last weeks, months. Of course, as Ludvig said, the initiative starts from this publication, which Nemo commissioned in 2019 to see how museums were faring in what it is called the EU jungle, the jungle of European programs. Indeed, as Ludvig was saying, there is a lot that can be done and improved to encourage museums to take part in European projects. Because there is a value and I'm very fond of international cooperation, which has given to me so much personally and professionally. There is a lot that can be done and the objective of the toolkit is to encourage museums to start these international cooperation projects. The toolkit will be ready, I guess, if not at the end of this year, very early in 2021, it is finished and it's going now to the designer, so it should be. So I'm giving you a preview of what you will be able to see and read very soon. After an introduction on the benefits for museums of international cooperation projects, we go into the toolkit, such into the step by step guide of what one should do. And let's look at these areas together. First of all, the organizational check. First of all, the questions that one should ask oneself like, do I already have contacts? Do I have a network? Do I belong to an organization which is active at European or international level? Are there events in my area that could create some useful connections like festivals like the European Europe of capital or some other twinning maybe opportunities and so on. But the organizational checking in the sense of also doing an internal self evaluation of how your organization is ready and willing to undertake an international cooperation project. That's also very important. So does my organization have an international strategy, what are our mission and values and when it comes to the funding program, do they match with this international funding program and so on. Also personally, this is very important for me to underline because in my own experience, the governance that of my organization which changed at some point really changed also my way of working internationally. I really had the moment in time, a period in time in which I was given the possibility to explore and to produce and to be creative in the European arena. With the governance we knew director board of directors and so on my this this freedom of of experiment and and and try out different international cooperation models was a bit limited my change again but please check that if you want to embark on one of these initiatives, you have the organization behind you but then because then it is up to the decision makers to decide whether you can go ahead or not. The second element of building a network, this is absolutely a prerequisite for international cooperation projects not only because you need partners in your project but also because you need to develop your project with your partners in order for it to be successful to be there and to really be successful. So of course now we are in a context Nemo which which really facilitates and allows to to have this sort of contacts and to have an exchange with colleagues. And of course other networks are equally important in the in the toolkit you will find one testimonial of a maritime museum and Italian maritime museum which belongs to the International Association of maritime museums and surely these exchange with with with peers would like minded organizations and individuals helps a lot, although I must say that international projects are also very good to try out cooperation with non museum organizations with adult education organizations with tech companies with NGOs with a variety of partners that otherwise you would not meet so also thinking out of the box is very important. How do one build, how does one build a network or how does one enter into a network there are very many ways and as I keep repeating in this context start small. Maybe start even with a with a study visit to someplace with a travel grant that you can obtain either through various organizations that are available, or also using the Nemo grants to go and be part of a learning exchange or a study visit. So, again, building a network having a network is is very important. Developing the project idea I wish it was really like this that at some point one light bulb gets off in your head. It's not like that there is a lot of preparatory work before the right project idea comes around because again. I said already it is not your own idea, your own as an individual and not even your own as an organization, because in international cooperation what you need to be aware of is that what is important for you might not be important for other organizations that will be your partners, and therefore also the project idea needs to be developed in partnership. And needs to have an international value. This is, this is what will be asked of you when you fill in the application one of the applications maybe. What is the international value of your project why does it need to be funded internationally and not nationally or regionally or locally. So, developing the project idea for me is something like this and this refers to a real life experience in 2006 I think it was at the end of an Nemo conference that I had breakfast with some Slovenian colleagues of the Slovenian Museums Association, they talked about different things, and then they came up with the fact that there was a new piece of legislation being passed on volunteering in the country. And because I knew that we were interested in in the topic my organization was and other organizations I knew in different countries where we put together a project on volunteering and call it which was then called Valk volunteering where the heritage was funded and producing produce the handbook and so on. So, developing the project idea also starts during coffee breaks or breakfast time. Okay, and looking for funds okay this is very important when you have bright project idea you've shared it with possible partners then you, you're looking for funds. In the toolkit I deal with different kinds of funding sources both direct and indirect so the structure of funds, I mean they cannot they are not delting in detail but mentioned so you can follow up. And then of course they direct funds that we all know that the programs that we all know that fund culture Europe for citizens. Horizon 2020 which will then be called the starting in 2021 horizon for Europe creative Europe, and so on. So these these projects, these programs and also other programs are briefly describing the toolkit. The main thing that I would like to underline here is that Europe doesn't fund your project Europe funds its own policies and programs to your projects so that is very important. I mean, no matter how relevant for you and for your partners your project is, it is only relevant in as long as it is relevant for the European Union, because the European Union sets is priorities, its policies, and when your project matches those priorities and policies, then it is a good project that can be funded. Again, the EU co funds project so the it's it's important to to find that matching funding source. And we have in the toolkit some interesting suggestions by some countries which created a fund to co fund approved European projects. Also, in this case, looking for funds, my advice is to start small and to and to get acquainted with projects with programs and I'm focusing now on European programs by maybe being a minor partner in a partnership in a consortium because you really learn a lot by, you know, by being there not having maybe a relevant role or a demanding role, but getting to know how things work and I personally, when I started in 1999. My organization was a partner in a project which was very badly managed. I'm not mentioning the program not mentioning the project or the person that was very badly managed. I learned a lot. That's what I started. I learned a lot of how not to manage a project. So, you know, even if you enter even if you're a bit doubtful, but enter the partnership and see how things go. And, and, and, and you can also learn a lot from other people's mistakes. Very quickly now from the project idea to the project application, how we love those forms, how we love those application for all those questions. So, of course, as I was saying, it's important to know the priorities of the program that you're going for. And when you start working on an application, you really need to start thinking systematically. So this is what is required of you being aware that the application, if the project if your project is funded becomes your contract in some EU programs, you can still negotiate. There are still, there is maybe two stage process, but in many programs like creative Europe, you what you write is what you bind yourself to so be very careful that what you offer is realistic is doable is manageable, and so on. So, the project application as I said requires systematic way of thinking the EU programs force you to think in detail how your project is going to be action by action starting from the goals and then detailing the goals into actions in some actions and so on. So these actions need to be costly. So in the toolkit you will find some tools that will help you think systematically, but again referring to my own personal experience when I started writing applications, I was not aware of these tools, and I was successful, because I simply followed the application form questions and they force you to think systematically and to think ahead and to plan forward. So it's good to be aware of those of those tools, but don't get scared if they are a bit complex, because even without knowing them you can be successful in following the application writing the proposal, okay, writing the proposal means, of course, again, having looked at all the project in all its details, answering all the questions, and doing it in a way which is simple, straightforward, understandable, because the application and the proposal is what the evaluator will look at and assess. And so it is important that the application is consistent, that it is comprehensible and so on. In the toolkit we also have tips from the evaluator, some tips that an evaluator of creative Europe projects and Erasmus Plus projects provided and those are very good to be looked at because you have to put yourselves also in the shoes of the evaluator. Not all evaluators know your field, so it's important to be very clear and so on. I think the proposal can be a collective exercise or a solo exercise and when I mean a solo exercise, I don't only mean the exercise of one person, but maybe of one organization because it is important to bring together all the components, the budget in itself needs some expertise. And so, even if it is a solo exercise, nevertheless, it has to be shared with the partners because when the project is approved when it has to be carried out, every partner needs to feel that that project belongs to him or her. This sense of ownership is very important and you only achieve that if you take all the ideas and needs and expectations of your partners into consideration. So if the project is funded, what is next? Now the funds are tried, the meetings, the conferences, the study visits and so on. In the toolkit we have tips for the project leader when the project is funded and tips for the project partners. My main suggestion is be very clear, invest, well, this is true for every phase of an international project, invest very much in the planning phase that is before the project is funded, invest very much in the initial phase. So if you are the project leader, invest very much in the kickoff meeting, first time when people get together, make it also fun, make it a good interesting opportunity to meet colleagues, but plan it very carefully so that everyone knows exactly what he or she is meant to do in the following two, three or four years. So being very clear and having a clear idea of what everybody's tasks is important. Okay, and for project partners, don't be afraid to ask. So the other sections of the toolkit tells you where to find support in the different contact points of the different projects of the different programs. The role of the Musings Association that can also be very supportive in advising about opportunities for funding in liaising also with the national contact points. And the resources we have resources websites and bibliography the glossary for glossary. And then we have two appendix is one is, I call it now maybe I don't know whether it will be called hyperlinks in the end but anyway, it provides links to the parts that are not detailed in the toolkit needs to be an agile in order to be to be manageable and readable. But these other parts where you find more detailed information is in the hyperlinks and then there is this very valuable part for me, which is called challenges personal benefits and lessons learned. And where we have some testimonials like period like Jenny, who tell about their own experience their lessons learned what they did wrong or right and how they would live differently. So, indeed, the toolkit is a bit a sort of like the scaffolding, but the lessons learned and the challenges these appendix be is really the flesh and what is interesting. So to conclude, I think that the I mean this is me right in in a tight rope walking exercise because to me European projects are a tight rope walking exercise in the sense that you have to juggle between different objectives. The objectives of your own organization and the priorities of the funding program, the different, the different cultural backgrounds and organizational cultures of your partners, and also what you write in the project application and how the project develops, because every project is is an organic, say, endeavor, and so can develop in a way that is unexpected. In this case, you should know that, of course, what you have written is binding, but there is a margin of flexibility that unexpected events are, if explained, possible, and you should take the advantage of them, because also from from new new possibilities and new suggestions of partners things that you had not considered. A lot of good things can follow. So this is for me. Thank you very much. And I give it back to you. Thank you, Margarita for this very lively and very clear walkthrough through the different parts of the toolbox. I'm seeing, I think that your, your story was so very clear that there are not yet questions. Also looking at the time I suggested is a good move that we straight away go to video to hear her case first. And if people in the meantime have questions still you can put them in the jets and we can discuss them later. So I would love now to give the floor to Pio. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. And also thanks to Margarita for for the presentation. I'm sure this tool kit will become a very useful tool for us to in the future. And now I would like to ask you if you can see my presentation. I hope so it looks promising from my part. Yes. Yes. Thank you. All right. So, following Margarita, I will now make a short introduction of how we develop one project for the creative Europe funding. It's an applicant experience. And I should warn you beforehand that we are the co-ordinating partner. So this is a description of a partner that perhaps has done most work in order to make this project happen. But don't be alarmed by this. It's a description of that. But there are many other ways of joining a project besides being the lead partner. But I will share our experience with you and we can hopefully then also discuss parts of it. What I'm talking about is a project called Moi Museums of Impact. Moi in Finnish means hello. That's a really nice thing for us always to remind people of. And we are a project that has now received funding from Creative Europe programme. We are running until November 2022. And like many projects currently there's a slight COVID extension to the activities. But our project has not overly suffered from this impact. The only downside is that we have not been able to organise the physical meetings we are looking for, we're looking for, but these have been turned into virtual meetings. We are a partnership of 11 partners across eight countries across Europe. And as you see from the number of partners and also the co-operation too, we are a large co-operation project from the Creative Europe programme. And what we aim to do is to produce a European Museum self-evaluation framework for museums of all size and types with the help of which museums can increase their impact in society. So it's a tool for museums to work with their activities and to think about their mission and the way their activities are organised in order to achieve impact. And this aim and this framework we will create through a series of workshops for partners working together. We organise a number of open stakeholder forums for the museum communities across different countries in Europe to help us formulate the new framework. When we have a draft framework we will organise a number of pilots in different museums across Europe to test in real life how applicable what we have been thinking is to the activities of the museums or how practical the model is to be used and fine tune it after these pilots through another series of workshops and stakeholder forums. And finally publish the models and disseminate information about that. It's quite a straightforward work programme, but of course our aim is to create something that has European added value. And specifically for that a European cooperation project is a very good way of working for us. I'm also advertising the next session where I will be going to more detail about the project itself and there will be links at the end of this presentation where you can read more about Moi and the project itself. But following Margarita's presentation I wanted to take you through our application process since we are an example of failing and then coming back and being successful. And we thought together that this might also give you an idea that this is also possible to do. And here you see the path we follow through the development of the project. Of course user evaluation is something that we have been working with a nationally for already several years in Finland and we knew already that other places, other countries and other actors in Europe were working with the same kinds of or similar or connected ways of working. And we had networks through which we could start building an idea about European cooperation, but the first ideas, our first concept paper was written in October 2016. And all throughout 2017 we then developed, I see a typo in the first arrow, but don't mind that, we contacted officially more partners in order to be able to leave the application in January 2018. And all through the autumn of 2017 we continued discussion with prospective partners first through emails. But there was also a possibility to organize a pre submission partner meeting and this was actually done in connection with the Nemo conference organized in Ghent in October 2017. So networking activities like Nemo is organizing where an essential part of our success in submitting this application. I've also put in that the contact with our national creative Europe desk was very useful and I strongly recommend everybody who's thinking about applying, contacting their national desk because they have a lot of expertise and they are usually very happy to help you onwards. That's why they exist and get funded. So our application date was in January 2018. The evaluation process takes time. And eventually we got the results back in July 2018. Unfortunately it was a rejection of the first application. I put also in the scoring so we scored 74 points out of 100 when the threshold for successful application was 81. So this was the first point that we were quite close in being successful as an applicant. Of course you know these are very competitive funding and it's not easy to get through, but we knew it was not completely in the woods. The application. In between these two application phases I put two main things that made us decide to go forward with the reapplication and the first one was a very positive feedback from our partners for all the work done and immediate questions about the possibility of reapplying and also joining the application. And of course we had an innate desire to work on this topic on a European level. So this was also our, we had our own motivation to try, think about trying to do this another time. So we took the decision to reapply in our organization quite soon after we received information about the first rejection. So we started an official dialogue with our partners and luckily or because of the partnership was already strong it was possible to reapply with most of the existing partners with only some replacements or dropouts. So basically the same consortium applying again. The second application date was in December 2018 and we got an acceptance letter in in July 2019 there's all again a typo. And this time reaching 81 points out of 100 with the threshold of being 80. So, not by much, but enough to be a successful project. As this was an reapplication, of course, in addition to having to decide whether it's worth to reapply, we needed to make and needed to be very careful about adjusting the project in a way that would make it more successful next time. Where did we fail. You receive an evaluation report for for both successful and not successful proposals and of course they are a very good source for you to understand what exactly was seen as not so well developed in the proposal so failing is also an opportunity to improve. We could see because it's divided like Margarita said it's very structural and we could see that there was where some specific parts where our, our proposal not was not very successful, specifically the relevance, which means for creative Europe how well the project matches the objectives of the call. And we did a lot of work with this and we managed to raise the scores we got from relevance from 1926 so so the feedback from from the evaluators was really helpful in helping us to do this there were there were other things as well. And the remedies we did that we fixed things that were obviously wrong. We explained things better that were misunderstood, for example, one of the evaluators was expecting artistic fees or artistic direction for the pilots, which was clearly and misunderstanding what what we were talking talking about the pilots and and this was then our job to do a better explanation with. And for some comments we thought that okay they have their views and we have our views and we feel quite strongly about that Margarita was already making a mention that projects can well be developed in breakfast tables and dinner so we feel strongly that good food makes better project so catering costs are not. Something extra but they are key to the activities well this is this this is because this is a cooperation project where we bring together a lot of stakeholders, so this was the explanation why there are. And a lot of no mention not specified not sufficiently detailed so things just needed to be better explained. And I'm probably nearing the end of what I thought what time I have a lot of it but I have gathered here some key points that are learning outcomes from the process itself. Many of these are or all of these are in the toolkits and no need to go into detail, but I would just re emphasize what Margarita was saying that this is not about what you think is the key in the project. It's about what the objectives of the call expect you to do. And even though we might not like this approach from the European Commission or the programs. That's how they categorize projects and and that's what you need to match so it's very, very important that your application explains or matches the objectives of the call. And the other thing there are things here. Several things I just wanted to emphasize the importance of having a good consortium so use your existing networks and and and that's an experienced applicant on and also from the other side of the desk I would emphasize that pay attention to not only not only to the relevance part the beef of your presentation but please make sure that all the extra bits are also in order you need to have a good communication and dissemination plan you need to explain your risk management you need to explain your management processes you need to explain how you will ensure quality you need to explain who is doing what all these bits that might be left undeveloped because you are focusing on the key activities but they are very important for for you to gain the extra points in the presentation in the application in order to reach the threshold above which you will be funded. And I just wanted to emphasize in the in the end that it's not an easy process, but it's absolutely worth it. There are so many benefits for working on a European level, and I would encourage you also to perhaps not start with the whole project of your own but just to put your hands in between the door and join an existing project find the connections and and spread your wings in a smaller way but but but during European cooperation this has also given me a lot of personal advancement and and also benefits for my organization. Just some contact details if you want to know more you can contact me or our project and you can also find the Moin Museums of Impact project on Facebook and and on on internet. And if I finish my presentation just to show that the consortium we have this mostly represented in the image this was the first and the only physical meeting we have been able to organize so far. I was talking about the importance of kickoff meetings, and this is was our kickoff meeting in Helsinki in January 2000 and and 19 in 2020 sorry, and I think I've said everything I can in the time a lot it to me and we'll move on. Thank you very much. Thank you, period. That was again a very insightful case that you shared with us even yours or honest also to tell the project was first in a certain moment rejected and then improve the plan and then it got awarded in the end it's I think very interesting to also hear that people can learn from that. And I want to go straight away to our next speaker which is Jenny, also looking a little bit at the time so Jenny before is yours. Thank you. Ludwig, I'm just going to share my screen. Except my PowerPoint. I'm sorry would I be able to ask Nemo to upload my PowerPoint. Is that possible. Yeah, give me a minute. I have it on my desktop. This is not appearing. Thank you. Thank you very much. And thank you to everybody in Nemo for all of this organizing this, as well as my colleagues on the panel. And my name is Jenny, I'm from the Chester beauty. It's an art library museum in Dublin. And I suppose the benefits of working with international partners has been incredibly useful for the practice of museum education and learning, particularly in my organization. Because when we relocated from the suburbs to the city center and opened in January to February 2000, there was very little elsewhere in terms of my peer organizations working with an Islamic East Asian European collection. So when we won the European Museum of the Year in 2002, that opened a door into the world of European networks and European projects because I met Margarita in 2003 at a EU funded workshop in Italy. And I met her again the following year. And then she invited me, our organization to be part of the European project. I initially said no, because I didn't understand it. And then I did a U turn and said, yes, I think we should join it. And I suppose that if you look at the next slide, this is just to give you an idea of our collection. Because it comprises of, as I said, Islamic East Asian and European rare books, religious objects, decorative materials, but it's unique within the island of Ireland. And for most Irish people, these collections would have been very unfamiliar to them, as well as the cultures. And I suppose the benefits of being part of the European project is I was able to meet other organizations and colleagues who are working in a similar area, such as the collections similar to ours. I also had experience of devising learning programs, which again wouldn't have been prevalent in Ireland back around, you know, first up from 2002 2010 or thereabouts. I've just give you a sense that in a small country with a small cluster of museums, which tend to look at Irish national history. This doesn't really fit into that remit. However, we are an Irish culture institution, we do have a national remit, but we are very international as well in our standing because the nature of the collections. We'll just look at the next slide please. And I suppose in terms of where we've come since then is how do museums compete with the outside world. I think the last time I stepped out of Ireland before COVID-19, I went to icon Kyoto in September 2019. And I had the fortune I was able to look at team lab, which is a digital immersive experience. Some of you around Europe may have had the fortune of having team lab come to your country or come to your museum, but they are high tech, incredibly innovative, and I would imagine incredibly expensive. And how do museums on a low budget meet the needs of people who are our audiences who are tech savvy and are looking for that immersive experience. That I suppose comes from the ability to be flexible, but also the ability to be creative. Let me look at the next slide, because I think I come from the world of the old formula. And I think a lot of my peers have this traditional trajectory of going to school, graduating from college and planning of the ladder in your career. But I don't believe that works anymore. This became very apparent in a project we were involved in with IBC and Margarita's organization called the Learning Museum, and we were looking at different elements of learning for museum practitioners. And we wanted to continue working together as partners. But we realized that, okay, Margarita was going to go off and do other initiatives. We decided to take our experience from collaborating in European projects and start looking at how do museums take on on the other side and the maker mindset, because the maker mindset sprung out of the crash, the economic crash in 2008. And they just started tinkering and experimenting and using their hands and using their ideas and trying and experimenting how to make things out of pretty much basic tools. In a subgroup, I know Margarita talked about meeting colleagues for coffee. We stood on corners in the streets of Bologna trying to work out where do we take this project next? How do we continue this synergy that we've developed through the Learning Museum? And we came up with the idea that we'll look at the makers, look at what they're doing. How can we learn from them? And this came about through our, we took the chance and we made our own brand application for a project called the Creator Museum. And we took the maker mindset and applied it to how do we upskill museum practitioners with a maker mindset. Thank you. Go to the next slide, please. And so the Creator Museum came about as a result of these conversations that took place on the streets of Bologna. And the grant application went in in 2013. And from 2014 onwards, we successfully acquired Erases Plus funding to upskill and train museum professionals but also collaborate and work with our local maker community. And that was a three year initiative. And then we got an extension of another year to continue the work of the Creator Museum with the Making Museum Project. Go to the next slide, please. And as a result, we've successfully acquired further funding to continue this idea and concepts of bringing creativity and critical thinking and experimentation to a new project that started in 2019. And we'll finish in 2020 called the Creator School, but bring it from the museum professionals and practitioners and makers to teachers and students because as those as a fallout of the economic crash, we're now expected to be far more multifaceted. We're expected to be far more creative and inventive as well as collaborative. And those skills we can share with young people who are coming out of the education system and are going into the workforce because those expectations are also being applied to young people today as well. Go to the next slide, please. So this is the trajectory from the Learning Museum Project from 2010 to 2013. And that moved over to the Creator Museum Project, which went from 2014 to 2016 and then that short turnaround making museum project. And from that, you know, the benefits and I think a margaretian hero have both reflected the benefits of these European projects is the networking, learning from peers, the exchange of the practice and risk taking. Because I suppose when you are working with partners, you are taking a risk through working collaboratively because you're stepping out of your own organization where you're very familiar with its own structures and way of practice. And working with people who may not come from your world, such as I mentioned the makers, and we also collaborate with science centers. I've never worked with a science center until the Creator Museum Project. So there was a great exchange of new ideas and experimenting is something that I really do believe in without feeling afraid or hesitant in experimenting and trying things out. Go to the next slide, please. And this, I suppose, is our biggest experiment in the Chester Beauty is as part of the legacy of the Creator's and Making Museum Project. We started to take on makers as part of a residency. Most museums will take on an artist in residency. They might have a studio allocated for an artist to interpret or respond to the collection. We took on a maker and a maker, somebody who, as I said, uses DIY, do it yourself, comes from a techie engineering background, computer design, digital design, and so on and so forth. And through our partners, the Finnish Museums Association, they were able to put us in contact with a maker who came to Dublin in 2016. It's a 2016, gosh, yes. And he had an MA in digital mapping or digital projection and interpreted our collections and he mapped out, I don't know if you can see in that slide, the very top one on our atrium wall. He mapped out the projection of our images using a Raspberry Pi. And a Raspberry Pi is a homemade computer for around 40 euro. And again, that's the beauty about working with makers is they, they work from the bottom up. And things may not always be as expensive as I showed with team lab immersive experience in Tokyo, which is definitely not 40 euro. It costs a lot more. We had our first projection mapping and projection mapping in an Irish Museum. Because there are other commercial events that do use projection mapping on buildings or images or lights and lights display. There's a light festival in Milan. There's a digital projection festival in Latvia. So it is very familiar, but for museums, it's very expensive. And we also did two follow up sessions with two more makers in residencies through the San Jose twinning, which is a twinning between the city of San Jose and Dublin. And we were able to tap into funding. Margarita mentioned funding as well. And we tapped into that funding in 2017 and 2019 with two makers. The first being Korean Polkata Takara, who responded to the art of Japanese knot making inspired by Celtic knots. And she came over and did a week of workshops with our teams. And then last year we worked with an Iranian American artist called Pantia Karimi. And she responded to our Persian medieval scientific manuscripts and worked with teens for a week as well. Next slide please. And I suppose the benefits for our own organization is we're embedding a practice of exchange with other European partners. But it's bringing in the non-museum practitioners to work in collaboration with our organization. I think that's really, really important to bring in outsiders who may not be familiar with our organization. The nature of our organization. But also I get to know the creative, innovative thinking of makers who we're not familiar with. It's trying something new and testing and experimenting. And it's okay for planning and carrying out activities to messy. I'm saying messy because it's often perfect. Be prepared to test and learn and fail and try again without getting into trouble. We can play the clip of the projection mapping. So that should play. There's a play button underneath the image. And that's to give you a sense of the projection mapping. I personally think it's one of the most beautiful things I've seen in our museum engagement with our public. And then the last slide I think. So the two, just to give you an idea of makers. And so the left is Korean. Korean is not making workshops. We do the teams and Pente on the right. This is a, we went out to our local maker space called hog. And we were able to just explore local maker practice and have an exchange of ideas. And the last slide. And that's to say thank you because we've got to wrap up now. So thank you everyone. Thank you to Jenny for a very insightful narrative with a lot of experiences shared. And it's also nice to see it in the comments. Also people are mentioning, for example, Joe's on the land that she can put into words how much experience has been gained from you projects and cooperation. Also reduces the class and seven so it's nice to hear people recognize the story and experiences that you share. It's time for one question that was there for period. And that's the question. Is the mentioned European self evaluation framework somehow connected to the ISO key indicators from museums. That's a question to you. Maybe you can quickly answer that one. Yes. Very quick answer is no it's not connected. The ISO ISO, we know, of course, about the ISO ISO indicators, but they are indicators and museums of impact evaluation frameworks framework is not an indicator framework. It doesn't assess your performance. So this is the basic difference. But we are positioning the more project in conjunction with all these kinds of previous, for example, registration or accreditation systems in addition to these kinds of of indicator frameworks. Thank you. Thank you. Then we have time for one last question to Jenny. Do you have experience of horizon EU projects written developed and coordinated by graduating students as capstone projects proposing to a network of museums and international cooperation. In other words, do you think that EU international development programs have to be pushed and developed into only internationally. That's a tricky question. I have never myself apply for a horizon EU project because it tends to lie in the world of third level university researchers and departments. And we've been invited to participate, but I believe the competition is very stiff. I also believe the lead in time takes up around two years to develop. Before you submit your application. So it's something we haven't taken on ourselves. But we've had a little taste of the grant application by participating in applications and they seem quite unwieldy. But they tend to be used by the third level university sector. That's all I can say for my own experience. I don't know if that answers novella's question. Thank you Jenny. I think that's a great moment to wrap up this whole session. I want to thank all three of you, Margarita, Perio and Jenny for your contributions on behalf of all the participants. All the participants thank you so much for joining in the session and being involved and reading the questions. I would like now to give the floor back to Julia. Hello everybody and I would actually like to thank all four of you including Lodewijk and Margarita, Jenny and Perio. And maybe to this question we are now presenting.

वाइत आमरीकन्स में इसकी तुल्ना काफी जदा पाया जाते है, 60% नेर वोथ इसकी जो तुल्ना है वो आम लोगों के को मेंटेखन्ली जदा पाया जाती है, तु इस लिए इसके इसके एंवार मेंटेल प्ट्ट्स में काफी काूँण करते है. जी डौक साभ ने जैसे की बताया है कि साथ त साल की उमरे से लेकर सथटर साल की उमरे के लोगो के बीच में यह बड़ता है. तु ऊट हुट को बीच की अफिया कारनगे जाती है। अभी आपना अगर निए कै को वेस क्छिए लिए आपके कही बाते

का चास बर सकते है. आपके बड़ों में यदि कैंसर है, तो आने वली नसलो में यदिकत कर सकती. उस में यह भी दिखा गया है यदि जितना क्लोज आपका रेलेटिप होगा और जितनी जल्दी उसकी एज्की प्रेदेशन होगी, तो आप में वी वो चीज़ा उने का चास जादा है. तो हम यह भी चाते है, कि यह यदि किसे के प्रोजो में यदिकत कैंसर है, तो आने वली ताएम में जब वड़े होते हैं बच्छे, मेल्स मेंबर्ट, उनको भी अपना कुष टेस करवाने चेंगे, यह तो हम जनेटिकस की बात करने है, इसके अलावा और भी की करन है, कि यह आने की आपके एंविरमेंटल फैक्टर्स कहां के रहने वाले है, जैसे की मैंने बताया कि कुछ वाट आमेरिकन्स में इसके चास जादा होते है. जी, तो यह तो बहुत सरे फैक्टर्स जो है, वो दोख साब ने बताये है, कि किस वजे से प्रोस्टेट कैंसर जो है, वो हमारे अंदर पैदा होता है, मेंल मैंबर के अंदर बड़ता रहता है. लेकिन हम इसके लक्षन वे दोख साब से पुचेंगे, किकि से पताजग

Okay, fantastic guys. So I formally welcome all of you to comprehensive revision program. So like every year, what we do is towards the end of the session that is from December last week till first week, we conduct classes on a daily basis, where all the subjects will be on maths and science subjects will be covering again, you know, repeating everything that we have done. And especially this year there have been some deletions so hence we'll be taking care of that as well. I hope you're all aware about the new curriculum so your school already would have told you and would have got papers according to the new curriculum only. So, you know, so hence keep that thing in mind and I'm going to share my screen now and just tell me if you are able to see the screen. All of you. Yeah, so I will. Yes, very good. So guys, as you know, the schedule has been given to you already. And yeah, just a minute uncle by any chance you're there in the group right now. Yeah, yeah. So I will make you co host so that anyone gets anyone enters you can just let them in. Got it. Got it. Yeah. So, yeah, I made you co host so you can do what you can just let them enter one by one. 1520 minutes all the people who have joined any which way. Okay, folks. So, yes, so we are going to discuss quadratic equations first, and what will be the approach is this. Okay, so let's talk about it straight away. So, first of all, you must be aware of what is the code structure for class 10 mathematics from CBC. So you can see, you know, number systems and the weightage all all the seven categories and the way it has been given and this is the, this has been extracted from CBC dot n i c dot i n website of CBC. And there is some chat going on parallely so let me open that as well. Why? Yes, it can be viewed in this later so no discussion on the technical aspects of it all discussions related to this thing will be entertained is that fine. So yes. Okay guys, so number systems you can see six marks. Algebra 20 marks. And this is where quadratic equations will be falling coordinate geometry six marks geometry 15 marks geometry 12 marks menstruation 10 marks and statistics and probability 11 months. So, as far as the priority of the topic goes in terms of marks you can see algebra has the highest weightage. So here is where linear equations and polynomials and quadratic equations and all that, which we have studied will be there. So hence total math is 80. And let's set a target for all of us. Our target is 80 on 80. Right. That is what is called sent him right so everyone should be thriving for 80 on 80 and trust me it's not impossible. And 10th board papers are too predictable actually so you can know you can actually calculate what could be the question question number one question and things like that, but overconfidence also should not set in so hence, we will try our best and make sure that we get 80 on 80. The other 20 part 20% of the total is with your school. I hope you have done well all through through this year. You have done your whatever internal assessments were there you have done them well. So assuming that in 30 paper, we have to get 80 or 18 possible not possible. Let me see how much energy do you have possible or not. I can see a total silence in the group in the entire room. Yes, guys, possible. Yep, everyone should be thriving for the only agenda right so on 12th of January, Swami Vedic Ananda's birthday is there and he had very famous code so and you have to set an eye on on a target and just go behind it without thinking much about anything so if you have not been able to, let's say pop up well all this all this while throughout this year don't worry. I as I told you if you just restrict yourself to the pattern and the questions which have been given. And you solve all these questions once again, I am very sure. And of course, you have to take care of your very famous problem, the silly mistakes, the careless mistakes and you have no reason why you can't score 80. Okay, so you understood the division division of, you know, mark so you can see algebra is the highest priority post which there is geometry so hence your triangles and Pythagoras theorems and similarity of triangles and circles and all that will be included over there. Trignometry including identity as well as what are the heights and distance application of tree normally. So hence, and this time around there is some change in the pattern of the question also let's discuss that straight away. So what is that. This is a question paper structure, you know, structure so that goes without saying that you have to read it at least twice you get some time to read all of that so that you are well aware what you are going to do. So as you can see there are two parts a and b. Okay, so what are part a and part b, and part a and part b have internal choices now the moment you see this, don't think that okay I can, you know, skip any particular topic. Why because you know that even if there is an or there is some kind of, you know, what do you say, choice the choice will be internal choice, it cannot be. You know, external choice. Okay, so sorry, as in sense you can't have choice between trigonometry and, you know, let's say triangle. Yeah, great. Now, let's move ahead so we were discussing question paper structure. And what was the question paper structure I told you there are two parts part eight part B, and there are internal choices so what does internal choice mean. So it will be let's say for example if there is quadratic equation. Question, so there will not be quadratic versus trigonometry choice. Okay, so hence there is no way you can skip any particular topic. So you have to either choose this. Oh, sorry, you have to, you know, be thorough with all the topics. Now, there are three sections, you know, sorry a consist of sections one and two, one has 16 question. Okay, so one has 16 question of one mark each now unlike previous year. Last year it was MCQ. So you would have seen this, you know, change in your question paper all of you just confirm if you have seen this in the recent pre-word example where yep, sorry. So you don't need not say anything in, you know, on the mic you can just type in so use your chat. Yep. So you have you would have seen that change. Now, internal choice is provided in five questions. Okay, and section two has four questions. Now this is a new type of section which has been introduced this year, where which is it says it's based on case study. Okay, now each case study has five case based sub parts. So these are all objective types only. And, and your examinee is to attempt any four out of five sub parts, any four. So keep that in mind any four of five sub parts. Okay, so be thorough with the instruction so that you maximize your case study will be how each carries how much marks. So each, each one is once four marks, right. So four marks each. So there are five. So four out of five sub parts you have to answer. So you can do the calculation total marks is 80 right 16 into one is 16, then four four for the 16. So another 1632. Correct. Then how many two of how many are there six question marks. Sorry, so this is 12. And what else 27 to 33 that means four plus seven. Sir, sir. Yes, sir. So the only the case study part in total is just 16 marks. Yes, there's not 16 months per question. That's what I'm one month. Yeah. So that's what I mentioned right 16 is the one marker objective 16 is the total four into four 16 and then two into 612. Okay, and then what 27 to 33 so seven questions of three months 21. So let me write it here 21 and then what else three questions of five months is 15. So 156. How much is this this is 46 and sorry 36 here. And what here it is 32 plus 1244. So 44 here and 36 here totally 80. Okay. So the other question which usually people ask whether we should apply a start from the beginning work from the end. Right now, this is something which is totally an individual choice until it's instructed, you can begin from anywhere. And many people think okay I'll be spending, you know, good amount of time on the five markers so that you know they're small steps here and there is step and then loss marks are lost. So you know, I if I would have been here I would have definitely gone through the normal sequence. So I my preference is that so I will you know I will earmark so there are how many 16 plus 1632 marks right so 32 marks. One marker question are there. Right. So hence I would spend around 4045 odd minutes there so you can do the calculations 45 minutes for the objective one let's say. Okay, and then. So this is section a. Okay, and for section be obviously the rest of the time, but I usually spend 15 minutes or I leave 15 minutes towards the end for revision so hence I am left with 165 minutes in total. So if I'm left with 165 minutes in total. And then how do I divide 45 gone so I am left with 120 minutes or two hours exact for the other two marker three marker and five markers right so you can calculate so how many questions are there 21 to 20, 21 to 36. So there are 16 questions, obviously not every question will have the same amount of time. So what will you do for two markers not more than three minutes or not not even three minutes, three minutes only so hence how many 21 minutes 18 minutes for the three marker. Okay, so let me write that three marker three marker question, let's say on an average three minutes 18 marks there maybe you can take 18 to 20 something like that. Then three marker questions are 17 numbers I'll spend that's a five minutes each. So this is oh this is two markers. Yeah, so for three markers you'll have, let's say five minutes each so 35 minutes. And for five minutes you can take, let's say how many questions are there there are three, three only. So three question of five marks. So even if you take 10 minutes each 30 minutes more. So in total also if you add it will not be 120 so basically 10 board paper should be over by two hours two hours 15 minutes, and you have all the time to go again and again device. And that is very very important because CBSC at times is notorious for having some issues in the question when I was writing in my 10 word there was a there was one issue in one question, which we never knew and we spent unnecessarily huge amount of time, ending up with losing in there so hence keep that in mind. And you can divide your, you know, so 15 last minutes come what may you have to revise because there are lots of, you know, questions which you are attempting and what happens is you are in some other world, you're thinking of your time you're thinking of some other, you know, formalities to be fulfilled during the exam and it just gets lost. So keep that in mind. Okay, now coming to. This is the syllabus now modified syllabus for quadratic you can see there are three subunits one is standard form of quadratic equation. That is one, all of you know this it is so common that we are, we have done it so many times then solutions of quadratic equations we have to, you know, only real roots so this is mentioned this is taken just copy paste from. Yes, three hours. Yes. So, yeah, any question. No, who's asking in any question there. So let me know if at all there is any shoes. Okay, solutions of quadratic equations, only real roots they have mentioned categorical. So there and using factorization and by using quadratic formula so you can be rest assured to be allowed to a large extent that anyways graphical solutions are not there. So between discriminant and nature of this is the third element. Now, if you see the sample paper I hope you are aware that CBC has released some sample papers. So let me show you what is there. You know, so you should go to learn this, we are trying to, you know, so we have given everything here. You can see that exam CBC website, so you can keep checking that for latest information don't go by here and say or what is the news are saying newspapers are saying no, go to the CBC website and see if there is a notification. So usually there will be a notification here. Can you see that this is the most authentic reliable source of any information related to your exam. So always bookmark this site and keep looking at this notification. Okay, fair enough. So examination related material this must you must know all these previous year question papers of CBC, you can see marking scheme for compartment exam question papers for compartment exam marking scheme for examination 2020 this is why you are you so you must see these these things so just a minute. Yeah, so what I'm saying is, yeah, so these, these are the, you know, things you should be taking care of, then marking scheme do look at marking scheme one so how marks are awarded will give you a good sense of how to go about it model answers again so we'll be discussing model answers anyway in this session and good that they have given that so that you can have a, you know, view of how exactly answer should be written is my answer writing skill matching with whatever is the demand of the board. So that you must be taking care of so lots of lots of information. So you can use that as well very good now. Let's go to. So next, next thing is here. So this is curriculum so all the latest revised curriculum is here so do have a look before you attempt any preparation so this is again another important side, then official papers of CBC. This is the sample question paper they have released. So you must practice them for sure and you know, even if you have seen the question no worries, take down the paper, take out a time slot three hours and then solve the question paper Okay. Deleted portions, everything we will be anyways discussing in our sessions but you must be aware of so this is where the portions are. So you can see this is for the class nine so don't get confused class 10th one is here. Right, so you can see in quadratic equation what is deleted you can see that here. So what is deleted in quadratic equation, situational problems based on equation reducible to quadratic equation this is not going to be there in your question paper this year. What is this, so situational problem is nothing what we say as or what we call as word problems. So there will not be any word problem where this form of equation are not there. So let's say to this kind of an equation will not be there this year. Okay, so anything which is requiring this will not be there. So that's you can, you can be assured of but then you know already how to solve this, you know how to transform such equations into a quadratic one, and then solve. Right, so give me a thumbs up if so far so good. Everyone is with me. Yes, so lots of people right so hence, I must also be aware that you are you're taking, you know, you're understanding everything what we are discussing. Yes, we will be discussing completing the square method so there is no mention of deletion of completing the square methods will be discussing that very good so keep the energy level high guys because you have to sustain for at least two more three more months. And if you know nothing goes wrong because last year students had to suffer literally. So if nothing goes wrong you will be okay you should be kissing it so let's begin. So we will be revising the theory part quickly and then we will be going we will be doing what we will be doing our questions previous year questions only. Wait a minute again I lost the chat where is the chat thing. Yeah. Okay, so let's begin guys so what is this first the fall. First of all a polynomial of degree two. So we start with this only so what is. Yeah, so polynomial of degree two is called a quadratic polynomial so what is quadratic polynomial it is given over here. So what is any px is equal to a x squared plus the x plus see where a b c are real numbers. Right, so we are not going to take up any complex in this sport and put ABC are real numbers. An important thing is a should be equal to zero why because if is not if a becomes zero, then the equation is reduced to a linear form. This is very, very important so many a times this get this particular thing gets neglected always remember that is never going to be zero and x is a real variable so it's cannot take any complex variable over here. Okay, so this is the first thing. Let's go to the next one. Okay, so. What is the next one quick. So. Yes, let me do one thing yeah this will be making it. Yeah, so I will be using the yeah if px is a x square plus b x oh this would not be yeah so a x square plus b x plus C is not equal to zero is a quadratic polynomial and alpha is real number then you know that p of alpha a x square a a alpha square. Sorry for that. So hence p of alpha is a alpha square plus b alpha plus C. Okay, is known as value of the quadratic polynomial. So why do we need to understand polynomials because the next slide itself are in M. Yes, those were instead of raising hand just unmute and say. Yeah, anyone or don't do don't raise hand if you are not you're not asking any questions. It's a long back raise by mistake. No problem. Anyone has any doubt just you know unmute say and put your mic back on. Okay, so this is what we mean so hence if a polynomial is there what is a polynomial quadratic polynomial px, let me change the color of this pen so becomes easier becomes more. Yeah, so px is equal to a x squared plus b x squared plus C. This is my polynomial if you put alpha over there you'll get the value of the polynomial right this is a alpha square plus the alpha plus sorry, this is not square here. This is the square plus b alpha plus C is a polynomial quadratic polynomial right and let's take an example. So example is let's say px is equal to x square minus three x plus two. And let us say we are trying to find out p of one so p of one is one square minus three times one plus two, you all know this this is zero. So what is linked to the root of our quadratic equation we can see next let's go to the next slide. Yeah. So a real number alpha is said to be a zero of the quadratic polynomial so zero of a polynomial and solution or a root of a question right so zero of a polynomial zero of quadratic polynomial px, x square plus b x plus C is p alpha is zero. So any value which reduces the value of the polynomial to zero will be called zero of the polynomial and the same thing we'll see in the next slide, it is related to, let's say the equation. Now, now we are doing what we are doing px equals to zero so whatever polynomial quadratic polynomial we had so sorry. Yeah, so whatever quadratic polynomial we had so px was the quadratic polynomial and what was it a x squared plus bx plus C and we are equating it to zero. The moment we equate any polynomial to zero random entered the yeah who's random dude. You know you can't have such names I will not allow you. So any such miscreant will be thrown out of the uncle you're there. Uncle if you're available, otherwise I will do the honors myself anyone having. I am here I have seen and I have admitted as of now. No, there any person who is having any random name or anonymous people just bar them from the meeting remove them. Okay, got it. Okay. Summarily remove. No miscreants allowed. Okay. Yeah, so just remove them and give them a private warning once saying that you are not welcome and then you can remove them without any issue. Okay guys. So what I was saying is px equals to x square plus bx plus C is equal to zero is the equation now equation which we are going to discuss all parts of it always remember I will keep emphasizing is not equal to zero. And this is the definition of quadratic equation so we already know all of this so we'll not spend much of the time over here. A real number alpha is said to be a root of the quadratic equation, or it should be instead of root we've many times people interchangeably use the word root but then best word is to use a solution solution or root both are interchangeably use of the quadratic equation a x square plus bx plus equals to zero if a alpha square plus b alpha plus c equals to zero. So you know this we don't need to over emphasize on this. Alpha is a root of this if and only if alpha is a zero of the polynomial this so there could be a case where polynomial and quadratic equation so quadratic polynomial you have a chapter on polynomial and quadratic equation the question could be very very close. So, hence, you know they can use the concept of polynomials on quadratic equations and vice versa so be careful. Okay, now, so how to solve so one is factorization so now we are solving. So the first one is solving a quadratic equation so how to do first you already know in your when we discuss this chapter in our class we also discuss graphical method of solution of this thing but that will not be there in your paper for sure. Because in the sample papers or rather in the syllabus also it doesn't mention that so hence, it should not be there but you know how to, you know, solve our quadratic equation using graph tip, you know graph, so you have to plot. Yes, sir. Sir, is this meeting is for 40 minutes. No. Why are you worried about it. Yeah, just, just, you know, anything non-technical please resist from that, you know, so anything related to the subject matter please ask those questions only. Is that fine with all so that we can save time for each and let's respect each one's time and try to finish quickly. Okay, don't worry, your interest will be taken care of so even if it is suspended in 40 minutes why do you get a notice of something like that. Don't worry about it. Okay, so if a x square plus b x plus c is factorizable into a product of two linear factors, this is the best thing which we have known and we also call call this particular thing is splitting the middle term. Right, splitting the middle term. So if you and all that we are talking here we are talking in context of the examination. So in the examination papers, we have not seen for a long time that they have given a question and they are asking you to solve it. No, they in at max in your paper you'll have two questions to for quadratic one will be related to the nature of root finding k and all that. And that is one marker so usually the division is one mark plus three months. So that is what we have seen. So the marker definitely you they will not give you a problem to solve equation to solve in one mark they will ask you to find some k value for depending on the nature of roots and all that we'll see that. And there will be a word problem of three months, usually, or, you know, there is, you know, no four mark question so hence this is going to be the pattern most of mostly. So hence, you will be getting a word problem to solve or they might give you a question to solve also so be prepared. So they will give you splitting the middle term maybe or, you know, quadratic formula or completing the square and things like that. But anyways, so splitting the middle term all of you know so if you have x square minus let's say 5x plus four is equal to zero. So you know what to do you have to split this term, including the sign also so please be careful and what you do you do x square minus 4x minus x plus four is equal to zero. And then it becomes x times x minus four minus one times x minus four. And this is equal to zero. So you say this is x minus one times x minus four is equal to zero and this is what is called factorization into linear terms. So when you divide or factorize into two linear terms and then what you can do you can equate each of each one of them to zero. So you'll get x minus one is equal to zero and x minus four is equal to zero. Right and hence you'll get x equals to one and hence you'll get x equals to four. So this is one way of factorize. We'll see actual board papers that will make more sense. Let's go to the next one. Completing the square what is it. So let's do this for all of you once again so let us say we have a x square plus bx plus c is equal to zero. This is one of the methods adopted early on so hence we'll utilize the space here so I'm going to begin from here. What you need to do is you have to complete the square so how do I complete the squared so I can start with either multiplying the entire thing or dividing so I can multiply by a let's say I multiply the entire equation by a what do I get I will get a square x square plus abx plus ac is equal to zero. Right then now this is where the first element of mice completing the square is coming out. So this is you can write this implies a x mind you they will not ask you prove this technique prove the technique of completing the square. I don't think so you never know but I think I don't think they will be asking you such things. They will give you an equation and ask you whatever I'm writing is not able to are you guys is this thing visible to everybody whatever I'm writing on the left most part of my screen. Yes, so just just confirm I'm putting what do I write here what did I write. Very good and what did I write here. Great so that means the span expanse is okay and what did I write here. So hence everybody is able to see okay folks so I think is completing the square method in is in your portion so in deleted portions it's not there that means it is definitely there I showed you the website of CBC only deleted portion is whatever equations reducible to quadratic form is there those application problems will not be there only so that means everything else is there. Okay, so but having said that I've never seen a question which says that okay prove the completing or demonstrate the completing the square method know they will give you a question and ask you to solve. Yes, we haven't been asked we haven't been taught that in school either we haven't been any questions. Okay, so no problem but you know, since it is there as a, you know, hence I'm saying they will never ask you to adopt it. But just in case you have to, you know, there is nothing, nothing more dangerous thing here, so no worries. So you have heard of CZRH area as a whole the quadratic formula so how is that derived hence quickly both of both of them are similar. So hence no worries just check, you know, any basically add to your knowledge, even if it is not there. So what can I do I can say 2x, 2ax rather so you know see the manipulation I'm trying to do, and I'm separating this be out and dividing this by two. So hence, if you look at this term, 2ax times b by two, so it is same as ABx. Okay, and then plus AC let it be, or rather you know, what I'm going to do is instead of that I will add one more term here which is B square by four. And then subtract also B square by four plus AC give me a thumbs up if everyone is okay with this part. Is this clear? Is this clear? Yep, anyone didn't understand you can you know so what did I do I simply manipulated a bit so ABx is written like this. And then, you know, I just added and subtracted B square by four. The reason will be clear just in the next step and done. Hence it is nothing but ax plus b by two whole square. If you look at it, it is simply this. And on the right hand side I can take B square by four plus minus AC. I hope this is clear and this is where the entire thing ends. Right now I can solve this, you know, equation why because I have separated the variable on one side, and the constants on the other side. So hence what can I say I can say ax plus b by two is equal to plus minus under root. If I simplify this this is B square minus four AC by four. Right. And hence I can write ax is equal to minus B upon two plus minus under root B square minus four AC by two. This is what is also called quadratic formula. So x is minus B plus minus under root B square minus four AC by two. Right. So repeat after me. So x is minus B plus minus under root B square minus four AC by two way. This particular hero item is called discriminant D. Right. Discriminant. So you're discriminating against something discriminant. Right. So discriminant D. Right. And this D is going to create a lot of trouble. Why? Because under root square under square root anything if it becomes negative and then the real world gets, you know, in trouble. So hence that's that only takes us to the nature of it. So is this understood completing the square method is not a big deal. So you can simplify by a complete the square using a plus the whole square and that and separate the, you know, variable on the one side, all the constant on the other side. And, you know, just go for, you know, simplifying the equation and solve it below. Any problems so far in this slide. So far so good. Any difficulty so far. Okay. So finding the zero using the computer can be used quadratic formula. If, if the word completing the square is given, I don't think we'll be there in this year. If at all that is given, then you have to write all this. Don't use the formula directly. Is that okay. The completing square method is deleted from last two years. No, sir. I'm just saying. If at all, see, there is no, you know, in my opinion, many a times question do have it, but we haven't seen it in the last three four years. But I'm saying, if at all there is see we have to be ready for every exigency and hence we are also going to discuss the reducible forms as well, even if they have said, not there but you know, in some place it is applicable and you have missed it and gone. This is our risky thing to do. Friends, we will be seeing there is no problem in going a little bit extra and winning it over. Is this difficult by any chance? Don't look for cutting corners that okay, this is deleted. I will not do it. Something is, you know, you learn it anyways. 10th is not the last year. No problem. If you think it is deleted, don't study it now. So quadratic formula, all of you know how it is arrived at. We just proved it. There was a very famous Indian mathematics mathematicians. He also came up with, you know, the same formula. But instead of multiplying by a, we have to divide it by a in that equation. So what I mean is this. So he adopted this is equal to zero. So instead of multiplying last time we multiplied by a. So instead of that, he divided this by a. Obviously, a is not equal to zero. So we can do this game. If a was zero, I could not have divided, right? So hence it is simply x square plus b upon ax plus c upon a is equal to zero. And again, now follow the completing the square mechanism. Okay. If you do that, again, you will land up here. x equals to minus b plus minus root b by two. Where d is b square minus four ac. Discriminant. Many a times people get confused between a, b and c. For example, let's say the question is a minus b x square plus b minus cx plus c minus a is equal to zero. This is the equation. So don't get confused in this equation that okay, the same a, b and c. So here, the small a, which is this is not this a. So these two are different. Do you understand this difference? What is small a here? Small here. Yes. So as you say, so you can take, you know, either capital A or some px square plus qx plus r like that. So here the solution will be x is equal to minus b minus c, not only b. Now this b here is the entire thing here b minus c, right? So minus b minus c plus minus under root b square. So in this case, b minus c, this square minus four ac. So what is four ac? A minus b c minus a divided by two a. So twice a minus b. This is the solution for this equation. So don't get confused between a, b and c. So hence one way of doing it is you write this as a x square plus bx plus c is equal to zero. So this is the quadratic equation. So your solution will be x is equal to minus capital B plus minus under root capital B square minus four ac by twice a. Is the value of the coefficient taken when replacing the value of a and b and c? Yes. So basically this entire thing is capital A. Value of the coefficient only is a, b and c. a, b and c are what? Not only value, but the sign. Nine plus value both plus a, let's say for example, the question is, let's take an example, three x square or let's say minus three x square minus four x plus two is equal to zero. So what is a here? A is minus three. What is b here? Minus four. And what is c here? Two. Is that okay? Confirm. Clear? A doubt? Any doubt? Any doubt? Any doubt? Confirm. Right number eight. Okay, good. Now, nature of the roots of quadratic equation. Now comes the game. So why all this is required? So if you see x is equal to, we found out minus b plus root over d. In fact, minus plus minus root over d and two a. One thing, another one important thing you must notice here is this is plus minus. So quadratic equation. Always remember, how many roots can I have? Can I quadratic equation have three? Two or false? False. False. False. So they might ask you these kinds of questions as well. So which of the following statements is true? You never know. So be ready. So quadratic equation can, will always have two roots. True or false? A quadratic equation will always have two roots. True. A quadratic equation will always have two roots. Two roots. So false. It's true because quadratic equation will always be having two roots. If it is given quadratic equation have two real roots. Always. Then it is false. Understood? The play of words? No. So hence if the question is quadratic equation has two roots. Two roots. True or false? This statement is true or false? This statement is absolutely true. Every quadratic equation will have two roots. But in your grade, what have we done? We have restricted our study only to real roots. So when we are saying and if I change the equation or statement, Qe has two real roots. Always. True or false? True or false? Then it is false. Right? Why? Because we can have only one real root also or none at all. None at all. So hence be very, very careful. Be watchful. Awesome. Yes. Please. So what if a quadratic equation has two same roots? So then do we say it has one root or two roots? Two equal roots. Technically speaking, we have to say two equal roots. A quadratic equation will always have two roots. So hence what happens is in this case, one root is coincident on the other. So we always say the quadratic equation will have two roots. Yes. Depending on the D, this D, everything depends on this D. Why? Because square root of D, if negative, is not real. Hence if D is greater than 0, all of you know these are what? Two distinct or other word used is unique root slash solution. Mind you, it mean, yaha pe 0 nahi. This should not be there. This is wrong. Equality sign many times people add here. No, wrong. Then D is equal to 0. This is two equal roots. And third is D less than 0. We say two imaginary roots. So don't say no roots. Or say two non real roots. But in all the cases, there are two roots. Can we have two real roots? Yes. Obviously there are so many cases. Just now we proved. Is it it? The core is two real roots on x square minus 3x plus 2. Is equal to 0. Real or unreal? Unreal. All of you play video game. Unreal Engine. Yeah, have you ever tried Unreal Engine guys? No. Anyone? Lots of people. See, I knew Rn was going to answer that. Okay, cool. So real roots, right? Here, this is real roots. What are the roots quickly? Let's see without solving. What are the roots here? Who will say first? Quick. What are the roots here? X square minus 3x plus 2. Roots are? It's not time. Come on, quick. What are the roots? Ah, bhai. Quick one actually, right? Okay, so technical issues. Okay, never mind. So now I'm not going to repeat. Let's go to first question. Sample paper. One more. This is given in your sample paper. Can you see in the sample paper? Hence I said these are so predictable. For what value of K, the equation 9x square plus C, Ckx plus 4 equals to 0 has equal roots. Quick. Solve muddy. K equals to 2. Surya has solved it. But my dear friends, since it is one marker, just don't write. So how will you write it? So this is how you should write. This is how you should write. Oh, sorry. Wait a minute. This is now mark the steps. So you have to write like that for equal roots. For equal roots. What do you need to do? D is equal to B square minus 4ac must be equal to 0. Okay, so since it is one marker, so don't write the equation and repeat all of that. So hence B square. What is B here? 6k whole squared minus 4 times 9 times 4 must be 0. Am I right? So 6k whole square is equal to 4 square into 3 square. So 6k should be plus minus 4 times 3. So k should be plus minus 4 times 3 by 6, which is plus minus 2. Is it okay? This is how for one mark. Write it. Sir, the question can also have two equal unreal roots. Two equal unreal roots. No. No. Two equal unreal roots are not possible. Always complex roots are in conjugate form. Or you can have actually, yes. No, no, you can have how this one is, for example, x square plus 4 equals to 0. No, but here also no. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Mindset. You cannot have two equal roots ever. Equal unreal roots. Is that okay? Yes, in quadratic equation. For example, this, what is the root here? The root is plus minus 2i. Okay. So, again there are two roots, two complex roots. Is that okay, guys? Clear? Yes. Yes? Yes or no? Sir, next question. Sorry? Next question. Next question. Do it. Find the roots of the equation. x square plus 7x plus 10. Minus 1 minus 5. Yeah, you already solved it. How? Mental maths. Mental maths. Oh my God. Good. Very good. So, how will you write? This is again one marker. Sir, factors of 10 are 2 and 5. So, x plus 2 times x plus 5. Yeah. So, in the question paper, both 11th and 12th question were in or are in tendon. Signs are wrong. So, the signs of mistakes are now, they have started emerging now. That's sad. Okay, they go. x square plus, if this is one marker, what will I do? I will write x square plus 2x plus 5x plus 10. Always remember in one marker, they are not going to give you a very tough splitting the middle term. So, you can very easily split the middle term. And towards the end, I will give you one fail safe method of splitting the middle term, in case you got stuck also. Okay. So, this is and it is better to write this implies sign all the time. Okay. So, hence it is x plus 5x plus 2 equals 0. So, you can write x plus 5 equals to 0 or x plus 2 equals to 0. These are hygiene things. And hence x equals to minus 5 or x equals to minus 2. Okay, dear. Aditya, sir, could you do go to the previous question once? Yes. Here is the previous question below. What is the issue? Aditya, unmute and say if you have anything. Nothing, sir. I just wanted to copy it. Oh, copy. No worries. This will be... Oh, don't worry, guys. Try to solve parallely, but all the notes will be available on the same learnings portal. So, don't be, you know, worried about availability of all of these. The entire slides are for you. Don't worry. Next, quickly see different... This is one marker again. Find the roots. Sir, it's the same question. Oh, just slide copy. Okay. Never mind. Come here. Do this. So, for what values of a quadratic equation has no real roots? No real. Sir, why do I always get the science wrong while factorization? Avantika, the best way to do is when you solve it, put one of the values back into the equation and check whether you have got it right. Check the best part about equations is when you're solving it, you can always check whether that is correct or not by putting the value back into the equation. Isn't it? So, just simply put two back into the equation. It will take hardly 15 seconds to calculate. You will get to know whether the solution is correct or not. Fair enough. Okay. Okay. Next. Done. So, the values of a, again, one markers, you can't afford to invest more than a minute on this. One minute max. So, Mehta says a greater than one. Okay. How will you solve this? Again, step, mark the steps. So, again, CBC, as I told you, go to the marking scheme, see how marking scheme is there. Anything greater than three by 10. Achita. No, you have to write like this. A greater than three by 10 or something like that. Okay. So, hence, what values of a quadratic, what values of A? A. 30 AX square minus CX plus one has no real roots. So, you'll start like this. Even if it is for one mark, write the theory first. For no real roots, write this statement. You will get half a mark straight away. For no real roots, write D is equal to B square minus four AC less than zero. This is the condition. Am I right? So far so good. For no real roots, this has to be the condition B square minus four AC less than, you know. But since there is an A here, since there is A here, try not writing this. Why? Because people will think that you are trying to, this A and that A are same. So, you can stick to this. B is less than zero and then go straight. So, D is what? B square. So, minus six. Now, be careful when you are picking up the sign. B square minus four AC. Write, write, write. 30 A is A here and one. This must be less than zero. Have I done correctly? This is the equation. So, minus six square is 36. Minus 120 A is less than zero. So, hence be very, very careful that 120 A has to be greater than 36. Okay. So, A is greater than 36 upon 120. Right. So, this is nothing but three upon ten. So, done. Good enough. You can leave here. A is greater than three by ten. Right. Okay, guys. So, hence this bracket may S. Okay. Clear. Sir, I have a doubt. Sir, we got like lots of MCQs. No, no. For R and R, the autonomous paper may be a little different. This thing. No, sir. We have all a board pattern on there. But there is no MCQs in the sample paper given by, you know, R and R. R and R. R and R. R and R. R and R. R and R. R and R. So, there is no MCQs in the sample paper given by, you know, this thing, there was no MCQs. But anyways, if MCQ is there, then no problem. Happy. Right. Sir, only the case study based questions have MCQs. The rest are fill in the blanks. 60 questions are like, you know, you have to one marker. No MCQs. No choice as in no ABCD. Okay. So, next. For what values of quadratic? Same thing. Why is it competing? Okay, never mind. Chalo. Do this. This is three marker, guys. See, now here is the game changing. So, what I have done is I have taken all the question paper, previous year question paper or sample paper, this thing. And then every year, year by year, these are all 20, 20 sample papers. Then we'll go to 2019 question papers. Then we'll go to 2018 question papers. Then we'll go to 2017 like that. Okay. Do it. And quadratic equation, I don't think there will be a case study because a case study may, usually they will give either the coordinate geometry part of it, whatever they have given. So they will try to restrict it to one reason is or no, they can give you one question of four mark together. Then there will not be any other question on quadratic equation, but then I think polynomials will be there for quadratic, sorry, but the case studies and the menstruation will be there. Right. So, but possibilities, you can never say zero possibility. Yeah. So, but for, but I think for quadratic equation, they will go for one plus three only. So, hence if one plus three is there, then there's no case study. If one root of the quadratic equation is this, then find the value of P and the other root of the equation. That's a mistake people do here in such question, they will read here, read this also, but they will forget it. So my dear, what is the question, what is the way, learn how many, what are the demands of the question. So, keep this in mind and write somewhere. Two questions, two answers have to be there in this. Okay. So, hence mostly I have seen people will write this P successfully and because of, you know, your thought process says that, okay, there are lots of questions left to be solved and hence you will miss the other root of the equation. So, hence there are two parts of it. Remember now how to do it. So, in three marker, I will start. Sir, P is minus eight. Let me see. I will also solve. So, I will start like this. See in these question, please mark the steps. Sir, what should I do? No, don't get confused between, you know, the moment you are seeing this is an equation. There is no question of polynomial. This is a quadratic equation. Sir, I just told the answers to these questions. What? They just finished. Sorry, I didn't get you. I just told the value of P and the other root. That's it. I don't, sir. No problem. See, you might be able to solve it in your brain, but... No, sir. I didn't solve it in brain, sir. I solved it in book. Good. But you have to follow few protocols because your copy would have been, let's say, your would be corrected by someone in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu. You never know. It's better to, you know, write as per the demand of the board. Okay. So, 3x square plus px plus 4 equals to 0. I will start here. One root of the quadratic equation is this. One root. I will write one root and I will put a comma alpha is equal to 2 by 3. So, this gives an indication that you know alpha, beta, other. To find beta and what? P. Right? So, P, how will you... So, hence... Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Mute yourself. P into 2 by 3. Mute yourself, guys. Hello. I'm going to mute you. Hi, guys. Hello. You have... Hi, sir. Who is this? Yeah. Who is this? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No problem, but do not disturb. Okay. Yes. All of you. We want only serious people here. Okay. So, 3 times 2 by 3 whole square. Okay. And... Sorry. So, try not to do overwriting here. I'm unable to delete. Why? Because the... You know, I have to go for eraser and all that. So, hence, don't do this. This is not good. Not good. Let me write. So, if you are not able to erase, you simply cut. Okay. Let me write again. Once again. 3 times 2 by 3. Overwriting frustates the examiner. So, hence, please try avoid. And don't do this. Don't do this. These are all... This is all going to pull your... This thing impression down. So, hence, simple. If you have made a mistake, simple cut. That's it. No doing painting over there. Okay. So, this is 2 by 3 whole square plus P times 2 upon 3 plus 4. This is equal to 0. Okay. Now. So, hence, you can see this is 3 times 4 upon 9 plus 2 by 3 P plus 4. So, this is 3, 3. So, be careful with the calculations. So, 2 by 3 P or this is equal to 0 will be equal to minus 4 minus 4 by 3. Which is equal to minus 12 minus 4 by 3. Yes or no? Yeah. Correct. Guys. So, what is this? This is coming out to minus 16 upon 3. This is 2, 3, 2 by 3 P. So, what is P? My dear friends, P will be simply minus 8. This is one part. Do not leave the question and go to the next one. There is 2. One is done in the mind. You know, one is done. Other root of the equation. How to find out other? Now, you know that this equation is 3. So, either you can do by sum of the root root, you know, or you can now solve it. Minut 8x plus 4 is equal to 0. This is the equation. Is it? So, either what did I say? Either if you know the sum of root root. So, first spelling sum of root R o t root R o u t e. So, sum of root root is also possible. You can do that. Or, if not, then you need to do what? Solve this equation. So, 3x square minus 6x minus 2x plus 4 is equal to 0. Right? So, you write 3x and x minus 2. Correct? Minus 2. X minus 2 is equal to 0. So, this is x minus 2. 3x minus 2 is equal to 0. So, you can validate also. 3x minus 2 will give you this root 2 by 3. So, hence x equals to 2 and x equals to 2 by 3. So, write down. So, other root is equal to 2. That's it. This will fetch you 3 marks. Okay? Now, I have written it in two columns. You don't write it in two columns. Right? In one column only. Okay? Fair enough. Okay. So, next. This is done. This is again copied. I don't know why. So, every slide is getting copied twice. No worries. Oh, maybe some extra space for solving. Okay. Roots, alpha and beta of the quadratic equation are such that alpha minus beta is equal to 1. Find the value of k. Solve. This is 3 marks again. Will these slides be uploaded? Yes, my dear. Slides will be uploaded. Don't worry. And where can we access it? You will be able to access it in the same Learnist, my dear. Where you have seen the link. Anyways, roots, alpha and beta. All technical thing you can talk to us separately. Okay? If, yes, guys, k is equal to 3. Akshita, you are trying to find out a and b. Where is the issue? Find the value of k. The question is find the value of k. Nothing else. So, if you just write alpha and beta. This happens. And then you come back and then. Oh my God. I know this expression. I have been through this. Sir, will we get extra questions as well? How many do you want? We will give you. Don't worry. Roots, alpha and beta are the quadratic. How to solve steps? Roots of alpha and beta. Sir, alpha will be minus b by a. Yes. So, hence, here is a mix of polynomial and quadratic. Isn't it? So, you know that in quadratic equations or polynomial, right? If alpha, beta are the roots of this, then zero of the polynomial. So, you can also write alpha and beta are zeros. Roots of quadratic equation, if you saw above, these are now zeros of polynomial, polynomial px which is equal to x square minus 5x plus 3k minus 3. This is a polynomial. Alpha and beta are zeros of this if alpha and beta are roots of this. So, now what do I know? Alpha plus beta, in case of polynomials, if you remember, minus b by a, right? So, hence, write minus, then write minus 5 again, then divide by a, 1. Write all of this. Don't write directly 5. Show them that you know. Or if you have time, write this minus coefficient of x divided by coefficient of x square. This is what is alpha plus beta. So, hence, I get alpha plus beta is equal to 5. And alpha minus beta is given as 1. Now linear equations, 2 alpha, sum them is equal to 1. Please do not write this. Sorry, my bad. I also tend to, I keep doing this. So, write all of these 2. You write adding 1 and 2. You will get 2 alpha is equal to 6. So, alpha is 3, right? Write 3. Then I am again writing here. Don't write like this. Write in one column from, let's say anyone you want, 2. From 2 and 3. 3. You can write beta is equal to alpha minus 1. Hence, it is 3 minus 1. Hence, it is beta is equal to 2. Now, what is, find the value of k. So, how to find out the value of k? So, you now know product of zeros. Product of zeros. Alpha, oh, oh, oh. Alpha beta is equal to c upon a. Or you can write constant term. Or you don't need to write this. You can directly hop on to what is constant term? 3 times k minus 1 by 1. But do write by 1 like that. So, they will know that you are aware of this. So, what is alpha beta group? Alpha beta is 3 times 2, isn't it? So, write down from here. Oh, where did it go? So, you write again I am because of lack of space. I am doing it here. Let me take it. Now, this is what alpha beta. So, write 3 times 2. Oh, that's happening. So, you write 3 times 2 is equal to 3k minus 3. So, 3k is equal to 6 plus 3. 9k is. Bolo dosto. Any difficulty? So, you now, you now learned what are types of problems? Can you see? So far, now the problems are either to find out the value of k, the nature of roots, or one root is given, find the other root and the other value, or you have to find out, let's say, using the sum and the product of root. But that anyways will take up in polynomials once again. So, hence I have not included that as a theory in this slide. Okay. Now, this is now previous here. 2020, actual board paper. If one root of the equation is this, is the reciprocal of the other, then the value of k is, right? Try. If one, this is one mark. So, again, you know, not that intense. You can again use the sum and product of roots, root. I'm waiting for your, you all to solve. R in tendon says k equals 4. Ranjini Ghosh says k equals 2, 4. Anyone else? 4, 4, 4. Okay. So, easy, right? How did you do? Or any other way? How do you do? Product of roots. Yes. So, hence why, sum and product of roots. So, product of one marker. So, I will directly write product. Don't write prod and all, rightful. Product of roots. Alpha beta is equal to, or you know, you can directly, sorry, you have two. Okay. No, you can, you should actually start from here. Let the roots be, let the roots be alpha and 1 upon alpha. If it is MCQ, so no problem. But if you have to write and write, let the root be alpha and root. So, alpha times 1 upon alpha is equal to simply write 3 upon k minus 1. Be careful with the sign. C by A. So, 3 by k minus 1. So, 3 is equal to, so, or one step more. Write 1 is equal to 3 by k minus 1. This implies 3 is equal to k minus 1. This implies k is equal to 3 plus 1, that is 4. Now, many a times people will make a mistake here. Error zone. Error zone is, what will you do? You will do this. That k is equal to 3 minus 1. And make it 2. And we will get 0. So, be careful, okay? So, calculation error is possible. Next. Now comes, no, this was four marker in previous 2020 paper. So, in this year, there will not be any four marker questions. But then, questions will be there. So, let's solve. And I have seen a trend that in the last three years paper, there has been one question on speed distance time. So, out of all different types of word problems, you can expect a question on time distance and speed. Okay, so, how will you solve this? A train covers a distance of 360 kilometers at a uniform speed. Had the speed been 5 kilometers per hour more, it would have taken 48 minutes less for the journey. Points to be careful of. So, this unit is, friends, I normally say unit alarm. So, the moment you see minutes and you should be aware that, oh, there is. So, don't write 48 directly. People write equations using only 48, no. That will be one thing. Find the original speed of the, and always keep an eye on what to find out. Original speed. So, what will you, what will be the variable? Oh my God, situation problem using transformative equations are in, are in single. You will not get equations where in you have this kind of equations. Is that okay? But rest all are very much there. Is that okay? Yeah. So, any equation of this form, which is reducible to quadratic form will not be there. But any equation which is directly into quadratic form will definitely be there. So, this is deleted. I showed you, right? You can check on the website also. Only this is deleted. So, all done. So, in these questions usually I would have drawn a diagram. Okay. How simple one like that. Okay. I would say this is a, this is b. And I would say this is d is equal to 360 km. Okay. So, original speed is R n tendon has already solved. Okay. Had the speed been five kilometers per hour more. So, we'll start with saying this. See now I'm, let's focus on the steps guys. Let the original speed of the train be v. I am comfortable with v. You can take u because I'm a physics person also. So, I usually take v. You can take ux whatever, right? No problem. So, whichever variable you are comfortable with. Let the original speed of the train be v. Now you have to directly jump on equations. So, you can and also let the time taken by train at v or you can, you can write, you can write. Let the time taken by the train to cover 360 kilometer at v kilometers per hour. So, here I do mention this very, very important per hour be TRs. TRs. Okay. My pointer nib is little wider. So, hence don't, you know, these things are hence at times it might not be that clear. Never mind. Okay. Now, what do I know? So, you can say very easily v times t is equal to 360 point number one. Right. Next is how do you write? You write at the speed being five kilometers per hour more. So, v plus five into t minus obviously for 48 minutes less. Now, 48 minutes is 48 by 60 my dear friend. That is important. And this is again 360 no doubt about it. That's it. These are the two equations. The moment you write two equations, you will get 50 percent marks. Now, you have to just solve for eliminate t and solve for. Right. So, what will you do? So, you can get a quadratic like this. So, you can, you can from one to from one and two expand this you'll get vt plus five t vt plus five t and minus 48 by 60 watt four by five. So, minus four by five v and minus four. Okay. Everybody is doing. Okay. Everybody is able to solve. And this is equal to I am writing vt itself from one and two. I have written here. So, I don't need to explain this from one and two. Is that both are 360. Is that correct? Below those to any problem. I hope this is cool. Correct. Correct or not? So, vt and vt will go and you'll get a relation between t and v. So, you'll get five t minus four by five v. And you can write this as four. Okay. Now, you can use. So, hence, you know, eliminate t. So, t is nothing but five into 360 times v. Don't eliminate v because you want v minus four by five v is equal to four. This is the final equation. Now, something can go. Yes. Four. Four. And you're 90. Right. So, right. Clearly, and then 450 by v minus v by five is equal to one cross multiply. I'm writing it here. Right. I'll start from here. So, you'll write. Yeah. So, what will this be? So, 450 into five. I will write 450 into five minus v square is equal to five v. Directly, I wrote. Right. And then this is v square minus five v minus 450 into five. I'm purposefully writing like this. I don't want to calculate unnecessarily. Because anyways, I have to split the middle term. Okay. So, 450 into five is nothing but 45 into 50. Here is why I kept it like this five v is equal to 45. Sorry. Minus 45 into 50. I hope this is clear to everyone and this is the catch. So, hence v square 45 times 50. You can write 45 plus 50 v. Sorry. Minus 50 v. Am I right? Minus 50 v plus 45. Oh, plus five was that. Oh, did I mistake? Do a mistake. Ah, sorry. My bad. That's why I forgot. Correct. Thanks for highlighting. Thanks for my writing. So, this is then it will be cut. Then write v square plus 50 v. I was writing like that 45 v minus 45 times 50. Sorry for lack of space. Okay. Now, you have to solve it. So, hence v times v plus 50 minus 45 times v plus 50 is equal to zero. So, hence write both of them and I will write directly v is equal to 45 v is equal to minus 50 kmph. But, but you have to also write one more step. Where do I write? I write here. So, let me put a star and write here. Okay. I will write since write these steps also since velocity cannot be. Or speed. Sorry, not velocity. Speed can't be negative. Hence, hence the desired result. Right like that. Clear. This should be this methodical and I will show you how people have done it in the past. Board has also released some sample model answers. You'll see that. Clear. In solving part there is no issues, right? See, most of you are anyways are aware of how to solve the catch is how to present it now in a proper way without messing up with data and getting it as per the norms, whatever they require. Clear. Give me a thumbs up. What happened to the energy level? People. All good. All good or not? If there is an easier way of doing this, please, you can. If you have easier way, you can do that. No problem. You can always, always, always. If you think if you're confident, there could be many ways. No problem at all. Okay. Is it, is it fine? Next. Next. This is a previous question again, previous year paper, board paper 2020. 2020 or sometime back. Okay. Do it. This again. Can you see that? Another question from actual board paper. And again, speed distance time. Same, same way. So who was saying there is another method of this thing? I forgot the name. Yes. Yes. You can, you can tell us your method so that everyone else is also enlightened. There's a basically in this speed distance time question you draw table of speed distance and time. So if you could draw it, it will be. Yes. Why not? Let's say, let's draw speed. Wait. This is speed distance and so speed distance and time table. Okay. Yeah. Original. Okay. So in this case, we take the time to be X. X. D is 360. Yeah. So speed will be. 360 by time 360 by X. Yes. And time of the flight increase by 30 minutes. So X plus 30 by 60 X plus point five X plus point five distance. The same. Yeah. The distance is 600 in this case. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, I was thinking of the previous question. Wait. So 600. Oh, I could have done the 600. Yeah. That's very easy. Let me delete only painful. Painful technique is their pointer of a laser. Now pointer options. And I hope I've got the same color. Yes. So this is 600. And cut this and 600. Huh. No. So speed in this case will be 600 by X plus point five. It's average speed for the trip was reduced by 200 kilometers per hour. So. And time of flight increase. Yes. So what? Yes. Tell me. So this is 300 by X plus point five. 600 by. Oh, this also is 600. Sorry. 600 by X and. 600 by X plus point five sir. In the second. 200 kilometers per hour minus 200 kilometers per hour. Correct. Yes, sir. This will be the table. If you were going for the table route. Yes, sir. Next. Speed, the new speed with the second data will be 600 by X plus point five is equal to 600 by X minus 200 and we simply find the answer. Come again. 600. 600. 600 by X plus point five. No, what are you waiting because our speed is 600 X minus 200. 600 by X minus 200. This is the new speed. Yes, sir. It's average speed was reduced by 200. Yes. So 600 by X minus 200 is equal to 600 by X plus point five because that was the time taken rate. 600 by X minus 200 is the new speed. 600 by X plus point five. Why will that? Oh, okay. Like that. Okay. X plus point five. Okay. Yes. Correct. Yes. Simplify and we get it. Yeah. So basically, you know, the thing is Andrea, the thing is, sorry, who is this? This is a trick for, let's say, MCQ based questions. We also adopt this, but in this case, my advice to all of you would be go for equation writing, you know, that, you know, write two equations and solve. My advice would be that because usually we have seen that in the model answers as well that you can, you know, so that you reduce your risk of losing if at all, there is a possibility. This is perfectly right. No problems in this. So you get the picture. It is same thing, you know, you are doing the same thing. My dear. How? What are we doing? We are doing this. In this case, what would have we done? We would have done this. So my original speed is V into T. Right. Now in this case, original duration has to be signed out. So T has to be signed out. Okay. Now V into T is equal to 600. The second equation is V minus 200 into T plus 0.5 is equal to 600. Right. These are the only thing which I have. Yeah. And then you equate the same thing. So you write what VT plus 0.5 V and minus 200 T and minus 100. Correct. Check once again. Whenever you do, keep checking. So VT 0.5 V minus 200 T minus 100 is equal to VT. Cut. And now you will get 0.5. Now V has to be eliminated. So write 600 by T minus 200 T. And this is what you are also saying. Correct. Is equal to 0. This is the equation. This is the quadratic equation. Final quadratic. Solve for T. Okay. So 0.5 into 600 is 300. And thankfully we can eliminate all the 000. You can see 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.5 into 6. There is an int to sign here. It's simply 3. 3 upon T minus 2T minus 1 is equal to 0. So hence my dear friends, where do I write? Let me write here. No. So put a star, star. Don't do this star, star thingy there. Okay. Write in one column. V as clear as possible. Now this is because one slide is there. So hence I'm utilizing the space as much as possible. So 3 minus, multiply the entire equation by T. So you'll get 3 minus 2T square minus T is equal to 0. So hence 2T square V careful plus T minus 3 is equal to 0. Did you all get this equation? So there is marks till this level also. Right. All of you confirm. Did you get this equation? Yes. So this is very easy to solve 2T square plus or plus 3T minus 2T minus 3 is equal to 0. You can club these two and these two. Right. So hence 2 common, 2T common T minus 1 plus 3 common T minus 1. So hence you'll get, again this implies 2T plus 3 is equal to T minus 1. Hence T is equal to 1 or T is equal to minus 3 by 2. But again you'll write what? Since time can only be positive value. Time can have positive value only. Hence T is equal to 1R. Don't miss the unit. So let me write it. Do not miss the units. You'll lose half mark otherwise. Do not miss the units ever. Aditya asking if we get a negative speed as one of the solutions we neglected. Yes. In 10th grade mathematics. Yes. Answered. Okay. So speed cannot be negative in our case. So this is done. Now next. Same. Same again. So hence we are not going to, you know let's not spend time over there. Right. You'll be able to solve this. Will they ask velocity? No. No. So you are not going to have any vector related stuff. You know. So they will talk in speed distance and time. This is speed distance time problem. So they are not going to ask you if the ball is thrown up. What will happen? Yeah. So those things are. So everything, whatever it will be happening will be happening in a straight line in one direction only. So don't worry about these things. Okay. Next. Will you be able to solve it? I'm not going to solve now. You know the technique. You know the pattern. Right. Step by step. There is no hurry. Take two, three minutes. This is a good, you know, practice of let's say finding how much time you're investing in such questions. So try to find that question time also. So do it methodically and tell me the answer. Let's see whether everyone is able to solve it. Quick, guys. Waiting for your response. Take time, but similar type of questions. Speed distance time. Sir. Yes. Done. One train is the original. One train is. My headphones have fallen down. Speed. Speed of the slow train is 30 kilometers per hour. And speed of the other train, fast train, that is 40 kilometers per hour. Oh, so Arayan and Monish are getting different answers. Check. They just really check, check, check. Two people are getting the same answer. So Monish, my dear friend, without units, it will be very safe. Don't say sorry to me. I am not going to give you marks. So be careful. There is no hurry. Yes. CBSE 10th grade paper can be finished in two hours, 15 minutes, 20 minutes max. So relax. Now you know what kind of questions are there. So it's always an advantage. Yes, guys. Shall I solve? Akshita is saying 40 Kmph. Anish, which is for 5th. But units also have to be mentioned. So I hope you have mentioned that in the notebook. Okay. Is 50 40 correct? Do I need to solve? Anyways, let me solve. So fast train takes three hours less than a slow train for a journey of 600 kilometers. So again, we'll start with, let us say, let the speed of slow train. So we'll take your language. Slow train be X Kmph. Okay. Like that you start. And a fast train takes three hours less than a slow train for a journey of 600 kilometers. If the speed of the slow train is 10,000, it's given 10 kilometers less than. So the speed of fast train is equal to X plus 10 Kmph. Okay. Find the speed of each train. So we have to X and X plus 10. We have to find out again each train. So don't only find X and V satisfied speed of each train. It says now it takes three hours less. So who will take less obviously faster train. So X plus 10 speed into P minus. My dear friends. Mute, mute, mute. Guys, you have to mute yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. Now. Yes. X plus 10. And what? We have to also assume. So he's right that whatever you're using is a variable. So he is. Or you can write time taken time taken by. Slow train is equal to TRs to cover 600 kilometers. Right. So hence the same type of question presented in a different format. That's it. So instead of the same train, they have given you two trains. That's it. Otherwise. The entire scheme is same. So X plus 10 T minus three is equal to 600. And X into T is equal to 600. Same two equations. You'll get one equation and I'm not going for the entire steps. So these two equations and table method, whichever you find. Well, so X is coming out to be 40 km pH. So you can check whether it is correct or not. And the other one is what X plus 10 fast train. How much? 50 km pH. All of you are getting this or any trouble. Then I will have to solve full equation below. I else will go to the other type of question varieties of question. Okay. Clear guys. Yes. So far so good. Slide number 22 or 26. 22 is the information. 26 is the slide number. All of you clear. Give me a thumbs up. If everybody is there, what happened to all of you? Oh, energy level should be back. Come on. Yes. Thumbs up. Thumbs up. Say why, why, why, why all of you will type. Why, why? So let me see the energy level. Energy level should never be down. Always, always up. Okay. So good that you are enduring this long, long hours, but our job is bigger. Okay. Do this. Now nature of root in three mark setup. Find the values of K for which the quadratic equation this has equal roots. So they are getting nature of roots and solving a quadratic equation, both together. So that's the beauty. So both the concepts are checked in the same question. Please solve and let me know. So you have done it already are in good others also. Achita is also done. Okay. So everybody is getting minus three comma five. Okay. So find the values of K for which the quadratic equation has equal roots. So again, you'll start with where did the pointer go. So for equal roots, what do we, we will have, we will have again be very, very careful a plus one B square minus four a k plus four C one is equal roots. That means B must be equal to zero. You can if you want discriminant, you can write discriminant because we are not writing what is the K and all that. So discriminant equals to zero B square minus four is zero. Correct. This is the equation. So hence now is there any possibility without expanding? Yes, there is a possibility without expanding also. So you can write K plus one whole square minus four K plus one and how much three no minus four. So minus 12 am I right minus four minus 12 minus 16 correct. Correct. No. This is one equation. Okay. So hence what can you say about it? Six into two. Hence this implies, see I never expanded it. So you can solve like this also. So six K plus one plus two K plus one minus 12 is equal to zero where my variable is K plus one now. Okay. Where did the 12 come from? Okay. Let me solve this and I'll come back to where this, you know, basically what I did is they go. Okay. From here. This is K plus one whole square minus four K plus one plus three is equal to zero. This is what is given. I simply put a bracket around it and expanded. So this is K plus one whole square minus four K plus one minus 12 is equal to zero. All okay. Am I right? Why did I do that? I didn't really need to expand. I don't need to expand now. Why? Because now it is simple here. What do I do? I'll get, I'll get K plus one common within brackets K plus one minus six. Then here I will get two six or two common and K plus one minus six is equal to zero. So K plus one minus six is common, which is K minus five. This means K minus five K plus one is equal to zero. Correct? So hence K is equal to five or K is equal to minus one. Okay. You got minus three. Oh, well, sorry, my bad, my bad, my bad, my bad. K plus one plus three, my bad. Yeah. Oh. Eraser. Eraser. So now back to pointer K because this two and this one will get added up. So three. Correct? So K is equal to five and minus three. You could have expanded also. So if it is appearing to be dangerous, when you expand it, you'll get K square plus one minus four K minus 16 is equal to zero. This is another way of doing it. Your way method. So this is K square, then minus four K plus two K is minus two K and minus 16 plus one is minus 15 is equal to zero. And again you will get K minus K minus five K plus three K minus 15 is equal to zero. So K minus, sorry, this is K square. So K minus five plus three times K minus five is equal to zero and you'll get the same thing. K minus five K plus three is equal to zero. Okay. And hence from here. Same. Right. So both ways you can solve. Okay. Next. Again, this is one mark. See, one markers are usually about finding the value of K. Oh, sorry. X equals to three. Either one root or nature of root. So X equals to three given. Quick. No time. No time. This will be like 30 seconds, but with full awareness. Don't rush. Don't rush through. Okay. Cool. Right. Do I need to solve this one? I don't think so. Good. Next. One mark again. For what values of K, the roots of the equation X square plus four X plus K are real. So hence if you mark the word here, the values. So there will be more than one value on it says plus minus. No, it will be inequality on it. It will be an inequality. No. So the moment it is not equal to zero. The moment nature of root, not, or they're not saying they're not equal, not equal. The moment it is not equal, then you know it has to be greater than less than things like that. Okay. Let's solve. So values of K, the roots of the equation are real for real roots and it is one marker. So for real roots. Now I can see people are doing the same mistake. Everyone. Lots of people are doing the same mistake. One mistake is now here D will be greater than equal to zero. First mistake. People are doing only D greater than zero. Equal roots are also real understood. So first mistake is this. It says values of the roots of the equation are real. Now real may only real is given nothing else. So real roots are D greater than equal to zero equal roots are also real. So this will be the criteria not and not D greater than zero. Right now. So hence if this is there then B square that is four square minus four times one times K must be greater than equal to zero. That means four square is greater than equal to four K. Right. So four is greater than K or K can be less than equal to. Okay. You can one marker. We don't need to check. So hence if you do if you adopt this, Anish is saying greater than equal to minus four. No, there is no K square term Anish. Why are you saying minus one on that B square minus four AC simple is greater than equal to zero. Why will there be two? There is no power on K. Okay. So hence. Okay. Next. They will not ask you for quadratic inequalities. Rest assured. Hmm. One marker again. Similar question. Reciprocal roots. Not clear previous question. What happened? Arayan. Unmute and ask. Arayan, can you unmute? Hello. Yes, sir. Can you hear me? Yeah, yeah. Go ahead. What happened? Sir, K coming being at the same time, how can it be greater than four? And at the same time be lesser than four? Where did I write? I say K is less than equal to four. Both are the same. Both are the same. Just see. This is not appropriate way of writing. So hence I turned it like that. Okay. So it is about. Sir, why isn't it an appropriate way of writing? Variable is, so they're asking about K. No. So you say, do you write three is equal to K? Are you right? K is equal to three. What is K equals to? So three. What is greater than or less than equal to? K is equal to three. So hence what I'm saying is it's not that you lose marks. But you know the, you know, so they're asking about K. So tell K is greater than or K. Or this statement means four is greater than equal to K. But they're asking, what is K? So K is less than equal to four. These are the values of K. Hence. Okay. Next. Solve. These are the three. Why are only three, three, three? Flight number 30. 23. So three. Find the value of K for which the roots of the equation are reciprocal of each other. So reciprocal roots, let the roots be, let the roots be alpha and one upon alpha. Therefore, product of roots, product of roots is equal to alpha into one upon alpha is equal to what? C by a K upon three. Right? So this means one is equal to K upon three. So K is equal to three. Okay. So I just tell you a trick. If there is a reciprocal roots C, they are A and C have to be equal reciprocal roots case. So I have a doubt if I, if I write a first one, first of all reciprocal always keep in mind. In case of reciprocal roots, A will be equal to C. A and C will be equal. Is that okay? Has to be. Yes. What happened? You were saying, sir, I doubt if, if you write minus 4K is greater than equal to minus 16, you get K is greater than equal to four for the previous question. Is it where I have a doubt if you write minus 4K, where is that? If you write minus 4K is greater than equal to minus 16, you get K, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, I understood your problem. They go. My dear, if X and Y are positive, let's say are positive. Okay. Then if let's say X is greater than Y, X is greater than Y, let's say X is greater than Y, but minus X will be less than minus Y. So inequality flips when you cancel negative sign both sides. Understood? So if minus 4K is greater than equal to minus 16, then if you cancel minus minus or multiply by minus sign, what will happen? 4K and then equality will flip. Understood? So if you can't cancel mine, it's not equation. So you can cancel minus minus from both sides. No. If you can't cancel minus from both sides or you're multiplying by minus 1, both sides, inequality will change. Less than will become greater than. Why? Because if 5 is greater than 3, minus 5 is less than minus 3. Right? And vice versa. So minus 7 is less than minus 3, but 7 is greater than 3. So if you're multiplying by minus 1, the inequality flips. Okay? In case of inequality. Got it? So do not cancel negative factors in inequality ever. If you're cancelling, change the inequality. Okay? Less than becomes greater than, greater than becomes less than. This is done. Next one. Now we are doing something which are, now this is, this used to come a little while earlier. Recent years, 2018 onwards, we haven't seen an age related problem. But then I thought probably you must be also thorough with all of this. So try this. The father's age is three times the sum of the ages of his two children. After five years, his age will be two times the sum of their ages. Find the present age. Hence I have eliminated the digital problem and all that. Why? Because it includes one upon X plus one upon X minus one, you know, things like that, which is so wherever that is there, I have kind of not touched them reducible form. 45 years. Find the present age of the father. How do you solve this one? Let's quickly. Yeah. Science. One is, let the age of the father of the father. This is what I wanted. So the X. Okay. Father's age is three times the sum of the ages of his two children. Okay. Three times the sum of the ages, let the sum of ages of children be why? So don't think that, okay, since it is a quadratic, so I can't use Y and all, no use both, no problem. So let the sum of ages of children be why? So what is given? Father's age is three times. So X is equal to three times Y. And after five years of his age, so X plus five, his age will be two times, two times the sum of their ages. Now here you need to be careful. Why? Because sum of their ages will be after two years, after five years, ten will be added because both will have five plus five each. Correct? Am I right, guys? Below. But this becomes a, oh, this is not a quadratic equation, I believe. This is not a quadratic equation. Oh, I put linear one. Okay, no problem. You can solve it. So it was appearing to be a, but how? Okay, never mind. So X equals to three Y. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So anyways, that also you can. So what was needed? X. So don't eliminate X, eliminate Y. So X plus five is equal to two X upon three plus 10. So you'll get X directly from here. Multiply the entire equation by three or you can first simplify. Two X by three plus 20 and then multiply by three. So I'm writing here, this will be three X plus 15 is equal to two X plus 60. So X is equal to 45. Oh, this was a linear equation. Sorry, no problem. Anyways, we'll cover linear equation later. So let's go ahead. Do this. A fraction becomes one by three when two is subtracted from the numerator becomes one by two when one is subtracted from the denominator. I think this is also from the linear equation part of the remix. Because X and Y you will be taking. Okay, wait a minute guys. Just a minute. Leave it for some time. This is again plain left 30 minutes. Less than similar type of question. Again, 2018, you can see speed time distance. This is to 2014. So try these, this one. Some of the squares of two consecutive odd numbers is 394 find the numbers. This is quadratic. Some of the squares of this is little earlier. So in 2014, just in case they come back with these, then what we'll do off late. We have not seen that show the father and the child age question again. Yes, I will just let me solve this and then come back to that. The sum of the squares of two consecutive done guys. Studying by very less people. Now responding. Hello. Board. Total board. Come on. Come on. Everyone is getting 30 and 15. Everyone is getting 30 and 15. Only few answers. Actually also 1315. Everyone is getting 1315. Okay, so let the numbers be. Squares of two consecutive odd numbers it is. So let the numbers be 2n plus one and 2n or rather. Why? Why this? Simply. No odd. So it is better. So let it be like that. So let me. You could have taken n plus. Then that will be for even. Wait a minute. Point or options. Eraser. Okay. Okay. Let the number be 2n plus one and 2n plus three. These are odd numbers. Mix of real numbers as well as or a bit of knowledge of real numbers. Anyways. So 2n plus one, 2n plus three. What is that? They are saying some of the squares of the two. So 2n plus one whole square. Plus two and plus three whole square. This is equal to three, nine, four. You have to find out 2n plus one and n plus three. Don't just find nn. Be content with it. No. So let's square it. So this is four and plus three. Plus one. And this one is four n square. Plus two. Three. Six. Two. 12. Yeah. Four. 12 and plus nine. Is equal to three, nine, four. Check again. Four n square plus two times two and four and plus one. Four n square plus two, two, four, three, 12. And plus nine equals three, nine. So correct. So hence we have. Four n square plus two times two and four and plus one. Four n square plus two, two, four, three. So hence we have eight n square. We have 16 n. And we have one plus nine 10 and that is minus three eight four. Correct. Did you all get that? Not all of this. Oh, no, I mean we can cancel this also, but only four. So this is two n square. You can take two n plus one and two and minus one either. I just took like that. No problem. So, no, it will not go by eight. It will only go by four. Is it? So eight n. Sorry, four n. And this will be minus 90. Oh, it will go by eight also. Sorry. So 24, four, six is equal to zero. Hi, it will go by eight. Sorry, my bad. So anyways, it will be n square plus two n minus 48 below the X plus one since X. So why can't we take directly X and X plus one? No, X and X plus one are not two consecutive odd numbers. I didn't. Correct. X and X plus two will work. But then I am trying to, you know, just avoid the even number is if possible, hence, otherwise you can try X X plus two or X minus one X plus one also two consecutive odd numbers is given. Right. No, sir, I'm saying if you just take X and X plus two then. Yeah. So hence, since it is given odd numbers, so hence I have taken. Yes, sir. No, sir. I'm saying that's why we need to take two n plus one to ensure it's an odd number. If we just take it as X, it can be odd or, you know, in that case, in that case, actually you will see you will end up getting this equation only. See why? Because the solution is fixed. So at the end of the day, it will be like that only. So because if we, because the root, if it is even, let's say, then solution doesn't exist. So it will, the solution will come out as odd numbers only. Understood. So and just to, you know, make sure that they are asking for odd. So we are giving odd. That's it. Otherwise you can take X six plus two. What will happen? Check. If you check, you'll get the similar, this thing X square X plus two whole square plus X square. Yes. No, you have to actually take two n plus one like that. Make sure that they are odd. You can assume X to be an odd number, but not every X will be an odd number. So hence this is 100% odd. No questions asked. Right. So hence don't take X because X can be even as well. How do you ensure that X is not even? Yes or no. So you make sure that whatever your variable is or whatever you are assigning this to, that is odd. So it is odd. No questions asked. Okay. Now, did you get this equation or not? Am I, am I getting the right equation 22 and minus 48? Yes. Okay. So eight six or 48. Clear. So n square plus eight n minus six n minus 48 equals zero. So n times n plus eight minus six times n plus eight equals zero. Should not be any relief here. No problem should be there. So hence it is n plus eight and n minus six is equal to zero. So n could be minus eight or six. Yeah, good. Okay. Good only you can get it directly also because it's fixed. That's what I'm saying. 394 will work only for this case and hence you're getting it. But just to satisfy the demand of the question, nothing like that. Not that you lose marks there are in. Don't worry. Okay. So here. So what will, what are the possibilities now n is equal to eight seven is equal to minus X and is equal to six. So hence the numbers are two times eight minus five minus 16 plus one, that is minus 15 and minus 13. One pair is this. And the other pair is 13 and 15. Okay. So go back to age problem. There are lots of age problem, obesity, blood pressure. Which problem do you want to go back to? So yep, sorry for the bad joke. This one. Okay. Yes. For that, they will have to move forward. We have to even we have to move forward. Who has to move forward? If they want to go back to age problem, they can't. They have to move forward to go to age. Oh, age problem. That was a bad book. I was talking about my age problems. So I am having all of these. You know, so the, the, I'm getting bored. Why the hair on my skull is getting white. Gray hair. All these are age problems. Yes. Sorry. You were just having some discussion. Okay. All right. So that's my question. But it. Okay. So where were we? This is done. Hi. One geometry problem also you cover here. Then I will show you the model. One. No, is this six days problem? These ones, six days problems I have just mentioned here. You just practice once, but it is unlikely to be asked. Why? Because the moment, if there is a, you know, equation, which is reducible to quadratic form is there, assuming that they're not going to ask such problems, but you must practice it. But anyways, before that, this one, geometry problem. Do this geometry problem. There could be a geometry problem as well. Yep. Folks done. Okay. So. Shortest side and diagonal and. Okay. Cool. So let's see. Diagonal of a rectangular field is 16 meters. In such cases do draw a diagram. Representative diagram. Label it also. Now what diagonal of a rectangular field is 16 meters. So, right? This is 16 meters. And. Oh, sorry. 16 meter more than the shorter side. Okay. So let this side be X shorter side. So this will be X plus 16. The longer side is 14 meter more, more than the shorter side. So mention everything on the. This thing only find the lens of the sides of the field. Lens of the side only. So you don't need to give the diagonal. Where are they asking? Find the lens of the sides of the field only this much. Yes or no. So we will invoke Pythagoras uncle. So you will say by Pythagoras theorem. By Pythagoras theorem. X plus 16 whole squared equals X plus 14 whole squared. Plus X squared before you go for solution check once more if you have written the equation correctly. So the diagonal of a rectangular field is 16 meter more than the shorter side. X plus 16. If the longer side is 14 meters more than the shorter side. So X plus 15. Correct. Then find the lens of the sides of the field. So you have to find out X and X plus 14. Simple. So square them up. So what will happen? You will get X square plus 256 plus 32. X is equal to X square plus 196. Right. And what 28 X plus X square. Okay. So one X square one X square. Fantastic. Now what? So take this on one side. So you'll get X square plus 28 X plus 196. And if you are very prone to errors, you write like this. Minus 256 and minus 32 X. So that lesser error. And then also let me write here. This is equal to X square minus 4 X. And my dear friend how much? So 56 plus 4. That is 60. Am I right? Right. Or not? Yes. Good. So 60. 4. So X square. And it has to be what? Yes. 10 plus 6 is 60. So X square minus 10 X plus 6 X minus 60 is equal to 0. So hence it is X X minus 10 plus 6 X minus 10. So hence X minus 10 is equal to 0. X plus 6 is equal to 0. So X is equal to 10. And X is equal to minus 6. So you can write since what this thing is not possible positive only right. So hence your dimensions are 10 and 24 10 and 24 other dimensions. Okay. So we'll quickly now go to. This is important. This is actual board paper. You know how people have written. Can you see that? This is one of the question. Let the number of books bought by the shopkeeper BNC. Total money spent. Very clear. No. This thing here. Still it is, you know, very legible and very clean neat and clean step by step. And see when they are striking it off strike with one line like that. Right. So that people are very clear where to do what the answer has been properly highlighted. Okay. Since they both they are writing since number of book is a whole number it cannot be a negative number. It cannot be ignored and equals to 16 number of books bought by the shopkeeper is final answer like that. And this is one marker. So for one marker, what are they done? They go. So given they have written so much given quadratic equation is this where a is going to be able to see on all that. I think this is not that much required. Okay. So you can directly go to for no real roots. And the person has highlighted this. So you can, you can, you can avoid this. It's okay. Even if you don't write it, it's okay. But this is just to show that, you know, this discriminant must be less than zero. So hence B is less than zero. Even if you start from here for one, one marker, it will make sense. And hence they have got. Yeah. So this is X equals to K minus nine. So K should be less than minus nine. Right. These are all not required. Okay. You can stop here. Right. So this is how the model answers should be. So what are you learning from here? Neatness is definitely a factor here. Whether you agree or disagree. Neatness. Second steps. Don't jump on, you know, you just. Right. So that will be very, very clear always. So you know, you know, summarize the, this thing. So summarizing mean you highlight that this is what you are wanting. Here it is. Okay. So you can just highlight the answers. Highlight. So there's a thumb rule, which I usually say highlight the answers. Highlight the answers. There's a thumb rule for writing an exam, writing a theoretical exam. The more you make the life of the examiner easier. The more she or he will make your life easier. So hence don't put the examiner under stress. Don't let him or her mind data from your notebook. Then you are risking your, let's say scores. Right. So hence make it easier for them. They will make it more easier for you. And the, the moment they see the presentation, they, they create an image of the student in front of their eyes. And that's how, you know, so you're, even if you're very, very smart, very intelligent, but your writing and presentation is. They think that the child is insincere and hence usually at the human tendency, it would be that I will, you know, so for example, this need handwriting, even if the person is not very intelligent, let's say, even if then I am getting an impression that, okay, good, sincere work and sincerity does bring some, what do you say, brownie points. So hence, yes, obviously your knowledge has to be expressed properly. First of all, you must have that knowledge that is there. But after that also, if you're not presenting it properly, because it is going to anonymous unknown stranger examiner, it's possible that they miss, miss read you possible. And hence you can lose here and there, half a mark and our target of 80 upon 80 is lost. So I hope I made myself clear. Any question guys. So you now know the pattern of quadratic equation portions. You know what kind of questions are going to be there. You know that there will be one marker and a three marker. You know how to approach what type of problems will be there. So hence we say that it is at the end of the day, when you will start writing marks, it will become so predictable that you will think that, okay, enough. Well, any question, any problems, all this will be uploaded. The video will be uploaded on YouTube and the link will be shared in that Learnist course. So from tomorrow on, I'm sorry, my channel name, my channel name is Centrum Academy. So what you can do is you have to enroll there in that Learnist course. There is where every link, every resource, every PDF, every text, every document, every video, everything will be there only. So you don't need to, even there is a drive link, it will be posted there only. So tomorrow's class onwards, so those who have been with us, there will not be any link shared in the group, guys. So you can just come at 3.30, log in there, and you can start attending the session. Is that fine? Okay, so... Sir, one more time, can you say that from where we can get this video link? Centrum Academy YouTube channel. So those who are anyways, those who have joined the course on our Learnist platform, they know how to do it. Those who have not, they can approach me or Ankursar, or in our, you know, you take down, you know, you have to, those who have not registered themselves for this, they can go to Centrum Academy's website here. Those who have not registered, please register, because then only you'll be able to access the, what do you say? Let's say some material. So here is our website. This one is Centrum Academy's website. Now here, what you need to do is, you need to go to this enquiry admissions, and here you fill the form up, and here you please highlight the course comprehensive, this one, revision program X10. Then only we'll get to know that you are interested in this program. Okay. So everyone who's interested can just do that. For those who have just explored our program and then want to join this. Okay. So I hope it was useful session for all of you. It made some sense to you. Keep consistently attending the sessions. Keep writing the mocks. As all of you know, the 10th graders, NPS students, and our students in Centrum Academy, they know that you have a, come on this Sunday. So those who want to write, come on, can write, come on. Those who want to write mocks, can write mocks. So that freedom is with you. You can write both if you wish. Okay. Guys, so thanks a lot for your time. I hope for the initial glitch which was there because we were never expecting so many people to be attending it. I hope the momentum is continued. Keep working hard. Our best wishes is always with you. We will be working with you as well. Any issues, any problems, please reach out to us as quickly as possible. And we will be helping you with that. What about NTSC mocks? All of them are there. So keep writing. Every week NTSC, CBSC mocks will be there. So keep writing. There is no end to that till you finally write NTSC paper. So this Sunday we'll have Cam on the NTSC mock and the CBSC mock. They are available. You don't need to write all of them together. They will be available for a good amount of time. So don't worry. So write one, whichever you want to write. All options are open. You write whichever one you want. Is it okay? Yes, sir. And it will be available throughout the week. So write any... And anyways, now this is a holiday season. So you can utilize your Monday mornings, Sunday mornings, all that. To write as many mocks. Always remember, the more the number of mocks you'll write, the better your performance would be. There is no doubt about it. Okay? So friends, see you then. See you tomorrow with Ankur sir. We'll be taking up electricity tomorrow. And, you know, and, you know, let's see tomorrow. Once again, Target Centrum is the theme. So all of you should get Centrum. In Centrum, get Centrum. Bye-bye. Take care. Thank you, sir. Bye-bye. Thank you, sir.

The City of South Portland has a brand new Parks and Recreation Director. Wesley McVayne talked with Rick Toll about his new job and what he has planned for the summer season. Well, Rick, you've been the Director of the South Portland Parks and Rec for all of two weeks. Yes, ma'am. And you're going into probably the busiest time for the Rec Department. Tell us what's happening in South Portland. Well, I guess the greater question is what's not happening. I'm proud of the fact that I've been able to work in Parks and Recreation for many years now. And the City of South Portland has a long-standing tradition of wonderful events, as well as a staff that is extraordinary. And thanks to Dana, who just retired, and a long-time director who is an icon really in New England, those are some pretty big shoes to fill. And he kept them moving. So I'm hoping to carry that tradition on and forward and put my fingerprint on the program as we go. But we have many things, the Fourth of July is coming up, and by the time I believe this is aired, that'll have come and gone. I might get a breath and catch up, but not much because we've got some good things coming up in August. So you have a lot of physical things happening for kids and adults? Absolutely. Right now, we're in full bore with summer camps. People can sign up for those. They can look at the city website and find out of that information at southportland.org. They can also contact Lisa Thompson, who works for us, who's a phenomenal programmer, great with families and children. We've got also lots of different basketball camps and things that are going on. So if your child has a tennis camp, a variety of interests, not just sports. We have arts and crafts and many things they can do as well. Recreation, a lot of people think of just ball kicking and whistle blowing. But it really is digital photography. It's bicycling. It's trail walking. It's a mosaic of the diversity of a community. I think it sounds wonderful. And I know that South Portland is just doing wonderful things. You've come from Maryland, where you did a whole county or something. Yeah, in Maryland, and one of the reasons I moved there eight years ago, was that my degree was actually in public policy from the University of Southern Maine. The Muskie Institute is there now. However, at that time, there was no Muskie Institute. I was fortunate to graduate from there and I wanted to learn about county government. New England has town, municipal, and city government. But if you say York County, all you think of is the jail or land record keeping. However, in other parts of the country, in fact, probably 80% of the country, county governments, you said you spent some time in the Carolinas. Wataga County. Yeah, and you know county government is the main process for municipal government. There's usually the state. And then the municipality is rare to have a town incorporated chartered government. So I wanted to learn about it. And I did. I was the director there of an entire county system. So it would be very similar to Franklin County or York County or Cumberland County, just a little different population. And in South Portland, you talk about being a wide range of things that you're involved in. And one of them is the art fair. The art and the park. The art and the park is a phenomenal festival that goes on in Mill Creek Park, which this year is going to be quite the challenge. We're renovating. We're very proud of the renovation that's taking place. I just heard about that. It will be a much more environmentally sustainable facility. And it will also serve the public better. We have some new community gardens and there's a master plan. We hired a landscape architect and she's doing a wonderful job, Regina. And I think you'll find that when it's done, it is painful like at your house. If you want to see something tragic happen, take out a bathroom or a kitchen. It's like that. I'm in the middle of that right now. Funny you should say that. So we've taken out the bathroom in the kitchen and we're trying to survive for the next six weeks and then reopen it with art and the park. But before that, even we'll be doing some concerts. The concerts that take place every Wednesday in the park. So a few people and we invite you to come down and participate in those. They will continue. It will be just fine. The contractor every day is there working steadily. And if Mother Nature helps us, that'll be great. And I know we don't have too much time left. I know the Greenway there. Yeah, get out. July is Parks and Recreation Month nationally. Yes. And I'm encouraging people, if you're in this viewing area, to come to our Greenway and start at Buglight Park and go all the way to Wainwright. What's one of our sports complexes, a phenomenal 146-acre facility. And I'm encouraging people to go along that corridor and check it out if you haven't. You can walk it. You can pet it. I rode my bike from Munjoy Hill all the way over and along there. Absolutely. Absolutely. And what's nice about it is even on the hot days, it's got a breeze to it. You know, it's just the way it is. And you know, come out and do that. Visit the community parks in your area. Stay fit and active. And if they want more information, you're welcome. They can reach us at southportland.org or they can try to reach out to me at rtoll at southportland.org. Well, it sounds great. And I'd be happy to help them. And I want to have you back on and talk about some more things that we didn't have time for this time. That's wonderful. I'd appreciate your time. Thank you, Rick. Thank you, ma'am.

Really? This is my little friend. We had the packet. We had the two-patient packet. That's too far. And then we're going to go slow. Okay. That was a plastic bag. You're welcome. If you couldn't get into the plane, then you could get into the plane.

So again, good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, everyone. And welcome to Hyperledger India Chapter's hosted event. So today, it's our honor to welcome two of our esteemed guests from Hyperledger Foundation. First off, we have Daniela, who is Executive Director of Hyperledger Foundation. She's also General Manager for Blockchain, and it's a huge title, so I'm going to Yes, Blockchain, Health Care and Identity, head. That's right, you heard it. And then we have Julian, I guess we are all familiar with him. He's always there for us in supporting in any event or any kind of initiative that we bring up. And of course, as you know, Julian is VP of Hyperledger. And also, he leads some other Linux Foundation activities within Asia Pacific, including the public health rights. Correct, LFPH. LFPH, so yeah. And now the stage is set for Daniela to take call from here. And it's our honor to hear from you, Daniela, or to you. Arun, thank you so much for inviting me. And congratulations to everybody on the celebration. So I have a couple of slides to take everybody through. If I can just figure out how to share this. OK, all right. Can you see my slides? Yes. Yes. All right. Excellent. Well, once again, congratulations on your third year anniversary for the India chapter. It has been fantastic to see from my view over the last three years, how the India community has grown, how you've also taken on leadership opportunities. And we'll talk a little bit about that with the TSC and really the amount of community work that I see on a day in, day out basis from the Indian chapter is really unmatched around the world. So congratulations to everyone. And I'm very happy to be here and celebrating with you today. So I put together a couple of slides. There's been a lot of changes. It is my honor to be executive director of the Hyperledger Foundation. For those of you who don't know me, I've been here at Hyperledger for the last four years, a little bit over four years, working with Brian Bellendorf as the vice president of World Wide Alliances, working with our member community and the rest of our ecosystem team and our community architects and of course, Julian Gordon and the rest of the Asia Pacific team who have just been fantastic as the region continues to grow in India, in China and in other parts of Asia. So it is just my honor to be here today. And I want to just congratulate everybody once again for all the work that the Indian chapter has delivered and more importantly has succeeded in. So congratulations. It is a new era. It's a new, you know, Hyperledger is celebrating our sixth year anniversary coming up this at the this December. And there's been a lot of changes, you know, beyond me taking on as executive director, our community continues to grow. And we've really become a diverse ecosystem of special interest groups of different regional sectors and obviously of different technology projects and use cases. So as we think about as, you know, we we surveyed our membership, we surveyed people outside of our membership around what Hyperledger means and what Hyperledger means now and into the future in regards to Enterprise Blockchain. We really got a great feedback about that the the the name Hyperledger was a bit confusing. People didn't understand is Hyperledger a project? Is it a technical project? It is a community? Is it what exactly is it? So one of the things we we did is once again, we surveyed our members and we surveyed the community to understand what would help to have a clear line between Hyperledger as an organization and the individual projects. So the different projects here as well as the different community sectors, whether it's the regional check chapters like the Indian regional chapter or the special interest groups, the public sector interest group, the climate actions special interest group, how would could we define ourselves as a community and over the years, you know, many people thought we were the Hyperledger Foundation under the Linux Foundation, but we weren't. We were the Hyperledger project and within the Hyperledger project, we have many projects and many six, but we just renamed ourselves to Hyperledger Foundation and I think it's going to really help bring forward Hyperledger and the communities that are built around Hyperledger in in our future. So I'm really excited for those of you who haven't perhaps read about it or have seen it, we are now the Hyperledger Foundation. And there's a lot of materials that we've put together and also published out. Let me see if there's a chat. OK, sorry, it's our Julie Julian's chat was not to me. So there's a lot of materials that we put out. There was a blog post that we posted on why we did the name change and why the focus on building a foundation, a foundation, once again, of communities, a foundation of technical projects, a foundation of regional communities like the Indian chapter, etc. So we did publish a Hyperledger Foundation paper and this is an overview of what Hyperledger Foundation is. It is for both business and technical audiences. And it's a great, I think, document. It's simple and easy to read if you want to share with your employees or others that are curious about what Hyperledger is. It defines on why we exist and what we do. Focus on why Enterprise Blockchain, which continues to be an important definition and thing that we need to educate the market on. And we'll talk a little bit about that later. It outlines the Hyperledger technologies, the DLTs, the the tools, the libraries, and also shows Hyperledger in action, where we break out based on use cases where the technology is being applied. So if you haven't seen it, it's on the hyperledger.org site. If you just go to the about, you can download that white paper and we would love feedback from you all about that. So, you know, as we thought about the name of the foundation, it was also time to, you know, to update our mission. So for about six months, there was a task force. This was a community task force that consisted of different community members that were evaluating the original Hyperledger white paper. That task force also came up with suggestions for the name to change to Hyperledger foundation and also had input on that foundation white paper paper that I just reviewed. So a couple of key things that we thought was important to update in the mission as the Hyperledger foundation and community continues to grow. One was to really, you know, put into our mission that we are the premier community of software developers. The language in the previous mission was not as strong, but we can claim to be the premier community of software developers building these open source software tools. And we wanted to make sure that was clear. We also expanded the scope to include multi-party systems. Using blockchain distributed ledger and related technologies. This is important as the different projects within the Hyperledger foundation continue to grow, where we have DLTs, we have libraries and tools. And this allows us more room for different types of projects, potentially in the future that are really Daniela. Yes, there is some technical difficulties. I'm on mute. I think we lost Daniela. So everybody, if you want questions, I think she'll be back in a second. I imagine she's just had a had a had a had a break there, right? I don't know. Sorry, my Wi-Fi broke again. You need to distribute a Wi-Fi system. Exactly. Well, they're working on it. All right. Sorry about that, everyone. I'll complain to my own loss. So yeah, so let's let's continue on. The Hyperledger momentum, for those of you who haven't seen this slide, this is a standard slide. We use this in all our mid-year and quarterly updates that we do for the community as well, and many of the presentations that myself and Julian and others on staff use. We're really trying to benchmark year over year how the growth of our community. Once again, it's six years since we've launched. So half the Indian chapter is three years old and we're six years old. The amount of libraries and tools and distributed ledgers, the different graduated projects that we now have with version one and above. Obviously, some of the projects like Hyperledger fabric that have TLS releases, so really advancing the projects in the community as a whole. We continue to grow from a global membership. We just had some new announcements of new members with companies like Siemens and others like ID Now and Esperio Blockchain of a services firm in Europe. So we continue to grow both at the members and obviously in the regional communities, the working groups, the special interest groups and the meetups. One of the things even during the pandemic period was really our virtual communities continue to grow and really just produce some great content and some great opportunities for people regionally. So we're very happy with that and we continue to be very supportive of those growths on our project landscape. For those of you who have not seen the new landscape view, we're now identifying graduated Hyperledger projects and incubating projects. We're happy to come in and I'm sure Rune would be happy to do an overview of what that means as a project and there's some great conversations going on right now in the technical steering committee about how else to define these projects, how to make it easy for someone who's coming into the community new to be able to select which projects they should explore and they should be using so lots of great work that the TSC along with staff, I think, will be working on over the next few months. Another place that I think is fantastic that I'd like to highlight is our labs. So when we launched our labs, we knew it was a place to allow people to innovate and experiment. And it's been fantastic to see the type of code code contributions that are coming into the labs. Today, we have over 50 different labs all at different stages. Some are pretty active, some are a little bit more dormant, but really it's a place for any of you who have code that wants to bring into hyperledger that you want to build a community around to do so. So if you haven't, please do take a look at the labs and perhaps in the future, we can do a session very specific to the labs that are happening within hyperledger because it is a source of innovation and experiment in our communities. So let's talk a little about adoption and use cases. We continue to see a growth in the enterprise blockchain use cases, a 2021 Deloitte survey basically said that 81 percent of the respondents, this was about 1200 senior executives and practitioners that they surveyed, so 81 percent agree that blockchain technology is scalable and has achieved mainstream adoption. So what that means is that the technology is there and the senior executives know that technology is is available and working and that they believe that they see mainstream adoption across their organizations, which is great to see. We also did a hyperledger brand survey in the end of the summer. So we released this to our members in September and I'll share a couple of slides with you. There's some additional information that we will be making public. And we asked there was about 200 respondents, both business and technical leaders on where do they see business blockchain technology going over the next two years and basically, you know, 87 percent of the respondents that they see it growing rapidly or moderately, which is a fantastic number to see. Fifty two percent of those said that it was growing rapidly, so very quickly within their organization and their ecosystems and 35 percent growing moderately. So that's pretty impressive numbers. If you think about kind of the the the growth that we continue to see on these use cases and we'll talk a bit about that. Another key thing that our brand survey found is that respondents, so these same 200 executives in both business and technical, the survey respondents view open source as the most appealing enterprise blockchain actually and that is just a fantastic stat because that's what we're here for. That is what the Hyperledger Foundation does is creating open source enterprise blockchain projects. And this is important because we continue to see government agencies, for example, talking about how they are making selections and some of the big implications with open source. So that's the survey really validated a lot of the work that Hyperledger has been doing over the last six years to make open source the most appealing enterprise blockchain attribute. There's been a lot of market education and we're starting to see RFPs and different things that basically say open source and Hyperledger is required. A couple other things I want to highlight is when we surveyed the surveys, we talked about what is the best categorization of blockchain application? What is being developed and deployed within their own organization? And the three top blockchain application categories where financial services, supply chain and identity, followed by education or research, government legal, health care and as others, as you see there on the slide. And this aligns very closely to what we here at Hyperledger see as part of the case studies, for examples that we publish and where our members are deploying and bringing solutions to market. So it was great to validate that as well. So some of the key areas are obviously aligned very closely with where we see the growth of Hyperledger technology. So in payments and finance, and these are just some examples, I'm not going to go through them all with you and we'll make these slides available for you after the fact, obviously the Bank of Cambodia's Project Bakon, which now has recorded over 1.4 million transactions just in the first half of 2021, and that is a CBDC, a central bank digital currency retail digital currency built with Hyperledger Iroha. There is multiple CBDC projects that are using Hyperledger fabric as well as Hyperledger based on I have a slide next to show. But we're also seeing continued adoption and production networks reporting on real data, real production data from the likes of GSBN. Which is the Global Shipping Business Network. Trade Lens, they are now recording, they say they've tracked over 42 million container shipments and 2.2 billion events. I love talking billions, but this is real transactions, real systems that are in production with Hyperledger technology. In the case of Trade Lens and Retrade and GSBN, all three of them are with Hyperledger fabric. So we continue seeing and more importantly, we're starting to see those numbers of ROI, efficiency gains, etc. So on the CBDC front, we're happy to talk a little bit about it. We continue to see Hyperledger very much in the forefront of all the central bank projects that we see out there. So these are just some examples in this includes fabric in Bezu and obviously Project Bakon with Hyperledger Iroha. And I think we'll see more, we'll definitely see more. We've been talking to the central banks, the Bank of England, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and they just announced yesterday, the finalists and we do have Hyperledger finalists in there. And it's just fantastic to see the continued view of central bank digital currencies looking to Hyperledger first. Once again, back to that book and source first, collaboration, regional access and a commercial ecosystem. They know that there's a commercial ecosystem of vendors to support these implementations around fabric, around Bezu and around Iroha as well. So another key area of growth that we're seeing obviously is providence and supply chain and we continue seeing some great data points from circular, from Walmart. This 10 cent application is reporting 50 percent reduction in warehouse documenting and use cases around pharmaceutical supply chain. We continue to invest in making sure that supply chain and providence and sustainability use cases are shared throughout the community. Last one that I had on the list is identity. Identity not only continues to be important, is being targeted in Europe, in Canada, many major initiatives that are government driven have identity and self sovereign identity as a core to what they need to do. And this is important in things like ID Union in Europe out of Germany and where they're creating basically production level infrastructure using Hyperledger Indy to create verification of identity and finance, manufacturing, public sector and health care. IATA is using Hyperledger Indy and Aries to do their COVID credentialing for travelers. So lots of great work that's happening and continues to work in the Hyperledger Indy Aries, as well as Hyperledger fabric. There's some great identity use cases as well that we can attest to fabric. Our members continue to help us tell that story. We are on track to publish 10 case studies. We just published one by Tech Mahindra around a very cool use case around digital transformation for Abu Dhabi's land registry using Hyperledger fabric. Just this week, we published another case study with SMP Global and Splunk around their use cases. Please do take a look at it. These are great ways to tell others in the community, to tell your customers, to tell your partners how Hyperledger is being used. And we welcome anybody who's a Hyperledger member to contribute those member case studies as well. It's not just our members. Our blockchain showcase, which anyone can contribute to, now has over 100 showcase listings across many projects and use cases. So please do take a look at it. And if you have a case study, your own use case with Hyperledger technology, feel free to submit it. It is open for anyone to participate and contribute to as well. Another data point that I think is really important just recently, block data, their research firm just put out a report around the top hundred institutions of the world's largest companies and out of out of them, 30 out of the 30 technologies that they benchmarked or they looked at, Hyperledger fabric was the most preferred of the top 100. So 26 percent of them are currently using Hyperledger fabric. As you can see here, which is just fantastic to see. And there are some Hyperledger Bezu in here in Ethereum. Well, we're going to get them to start breaking those out correctly as well. But this is just a testament to our community. It's a testament to many of you on the phone who support these large implementations and it's just fantastic to see fabric and other or other projects as well. Community growth without all of you on the phone, we couldn't be where we are today in our sixth year. The three years that the Indian chapter has contributed has been amazing. I'm always we always use it as an example. I'll just give you a story. Yesterday, we had our annual governing board meeting in New York City. We met at the J.P. Morgan offices, all our governing board members, including Joe Lubin and Christine Moy and David Treat. So Joe Lubin with the consensus, Christine Moy with J.P. Morgan, Rakesh from IBM, Archana Shritzi from Walmart, who is the general member representative. We all and a bunch of others met in New York City for five and a half hours. And we highlighted the work that the Indian community has been doing to our governing board. And I think it's important to to to acknowledge that to you all because you're all volunteers and it's just amazing. So once again, I want to thank everybody here for your support in that as we do and we continue to model what you've been doing here in India for the last three years across the globe as well. Have a lot of successes in Latin America and Brazil, which is fantastic to see. Another thing I want to just highlight. We are a global community. We have invested a lot of time and effort over the last year in making sure that hyperledger is accessible in multiple languages for multiple regions. We now host meetups in 13 different languages. We've translated the fabric documentation in eight languages, including Tamil. So thank you, if any of you on the phone today were a part of that contribution campaign that was great to see. We have translated the homepage. We have different courses in different languages. And it's really just part of our growing focus on our regional communities as well. And last but not least, we continue to grow a commercial ecosystem. Many of you here on the phone are part of that commercial ecosystem as members and a vendor directory as her certified service providers. That program continues to grow. We have seen RFP that specifically stated that they were looking for hyperledger certified service providers, so the program continues to be important one and mostly we tell end user companies they don't have to go alone. It alone, they have a rich commercial ecosystem of people like you to support them. So how can you help further? You can join us, you contribute, you can share. So obviously you're joining the regional chapter. There's community calls. There are, there have been some recent discussions around having those community calls also have regional time, especially the special interest groups. I'd love to continue in those discussions and see how we can support, contribute to a project or a lab, as I mentioned before, the labs are a great place to start bringing code and innovation. We're happy to provide that writer blog or developer showcase. We're always looking to highlight developers in the ecosystem. So please, you know, join us for that as well. And last, I think that's the last one, I want to congratulate the two members of the Technical Steering Committee. Arun, as going into a second year and has been an amazing leader for the Technical Steering Committee in bringing the voice of the Indian community into the Technological Steering Committee and Kamlesh welcome and congratulations as well as the new Technical Steering Committee member and both of your leaders in the Indian regional chapter as well. So once again, congratulations. It is my my my my my delight to be here today supporting our Indian chapter. And I honestly cannot wait to have an opportunity to get on a plane and go to India. Excellent. Thank you, Daniel. That was a great, great presentation there. And thank you. We have now probably 10 minutes of a Q&A. So maybe I'll ask the first question, right? So what does it feel to like to be to be the executive director, right? We're all very excited for you to be the new executive director. But what does it feel like to take on this new responsibility? Obviously, I think many whereas you were doing a lot of a lot of hyperledger anyway, right? But what does it feel? What's your last month been like? There hasn't been a lot of sleep. So for those of you, we made the announcement on October 13th, actually. So exactly a month ago when Brian Bellendorf announced that he was going to be the executive director of the new open source strategy project at the Linux Foundation for security. And we had been working on that transition for a while. So it wasn't like he woke up this morning and on October 13th and said, hey, would you like this job? So we did a lot of valuations. We really made sure we discuss this with the board. I've had full board support from the start, which has been fantastic to see. I've been working with the board for the last four years very directly. So obviously, they knew me. Our hyperledger members know me quite well because I've been working with them so so so long. And hopefully many of you do as well. I've tried to be as public as possible. So it feels amazing. It is one of the things that I was kind of just like anybody who's who's about to get promoted. Like I had some apprehension about it and I went and I had a conversation with Jim Zemlin, who is the executive director of the CEO of the Linux Foundation, and I said, Jim, I'm nervous. You know, can I do this? Can do you think I could do this? And he said, absolutely, Dingella, you've been doing it for the last four years and you deserve you deserve the recognition. So it's been fantastic. You know, we're growing the team. It's important to grow the team. We're going to bring bringing in some new resources and new faces to help support our member community and our global community. So over the next few weeks, you'll start hearing about those new faces. We also just promoted David Boswell, who had been on my ecosystems team and we just promoted him to Senior Director of Community Architecture to really help grow a lot of the developer community aspects. So it's been fantastic. It's been very tiring. I need a vacation and I do hope to get one over the Thanksgiving US holidays here. But, you know, Julian, you, Dorothy and the rest of the staff there in Asia Pacific have just been so supportive. So I want to thank you. I couldn't have done it without you and the rest of the team. So it feels great. It feels great. And I'm really looking forward to making us all proud and continue to grow. Yeah, that's great. And I think that the whole community here is really supportive and very excited. What you call the next chapter, I think it's wonderful. So we've actually just got maybe just five minutes left. So I'm going to ask two different questions. Right. One is basically we have a lot of people here saying, how do I how do I get involved? How do I find out more about hyperledger? So that's kind of one question. And the second question is there's so many new things happening. We've got NFTs, we've got CVDCs, we've got public networks. So there's two kind of how do we get involved? Literally, if you do this in five minutes, how do you get involved? And what do you see as the kind of new, exciting things and how do we as hyperledger engage in those? True. So, you know, and I see a couple of questions that are, you know, like how so how to get involved? So if you want to learn about hyperledger technologies, right? If you're at that stage where you don't have the technical knowledge or even the business knowledge about enterprise blockchain, we have great courses that are free and online and self-paced for you to take advantage of our introduction to hyperledger course has, I think, over one hundred and seventy five thousand people have taken that course worldwide. We just updated it three months ago, so it's very it's up to date about all our projects and kind of where the industry is. So I recommend that and then start dealing it. There's there's courses around hyperledger fabric to learn to get certification to be a fabric developer or an administrator. There is hyperledger Indie Aries and Ursa to learn about digital identity. There's hyperledger Basu. So we just released in June hyperledger Basu training course. Those are free and available for anybody to take. The certification courses do require there's a fee associated with the testing, but there's lots of resources there to get involved. There are a lot of videos. The YouTube library, if you haven't visited the YouTube library and Dorothy, maybe you can pop it into the chat room is a fantastic place to hear what other community members are building using hyperledger. So I recommend doing that. All our special interest groups get presentations presented there to do that. Continue being involved in the hyperledger Indian chapter and, you know, and build, build, build, you know, grab the code and build some solutions and show us what you have. Excellent. And obviously the community here we've had for three years. It's done amazing jobs and can help and support reach out to run Kamlesh and Vikram and everyone else here and many people. And then let me answer the public blockchain question. Right. So one of the key things I think we all need as a community is to to focus on our enterprise blockchain use cases. But it will, you know, we're six years into this, the public blockchain and the different public blockchain networks will be important. So if you think about Ethereum, Hyperledger, Bezu, and we've had access to the Ethereum virtual machine since Borough came into Hyperledger. But Hyperledger, Bezu is the Ethereum client that can either be run as a permissioned network or as a node on the Ethereum mainnet. You're going to hear over the next few weeks, many new use cases and announcements around companies that want to build using Hyperledger technology and want the optionality, maybe not now, but in the future, the optionality to be able to be on the Ethereum mainnet. If you think about others in our ecosystem, for example, Hedera, Hedera is a member of Hyperledger. They have a plug in for Hyperledger fabric that allows Hyperledger fabric networks to communicate with the Hedera public network. We have obviously Indy is a permissionless network. And there's a few permissionless networks that have been built using Hyperledger Indy. We have companies like Quant, for example, who are building solutions for easy access for enterprise implementations. They recently just did a presentation with Oracle Blockchain on how they're doing tokenization using Quant. So there's a lot of experimentation and a lot of opportunity for enterprises to experiment with public blockchains. And I do think there'll be more, even in, for example, the last Hyperledger UI, and they're doing IBC, which is they're doing the connections into Cosmos and then Cactus themselves is doing Substrate, which is Polkadot. So there's connections. There will be optionality and hybrid tools and solutions out there. And I think Hyperledger is well permissioned, positioned to be a leader in that space as well. How do we bridge enterprises into public networks? OK, thank you, Daniel. There is so much. I'll come back. I'll come back. It's very exciting. I think we've come to the point now. We have to hand over to the to the interns. We're going to go through some presentations, right? And then we have a then we have a networking, which I think we're going to be around for so people can still ask Daniela and myself some questions. So I'm going to hand now back to your run. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Julian. Thank you, Daniela, for the great presentation and thanks for the Q&A. I know we have so many questions coming in on the chart and we'll continue to answer them. But I guess now it's the time for us to switch over to our next presentation. So we have Pritam, who is one of our Hyperledger mentee. So as many of you know, Hyperledger runs annual mentorship project and we are very glad to have so many representation from Indian region, especially the amount of work or the quality of work that they have been putting into into the open source community. It's really commendable. So without much due, I would welcome Pritam. Hi. So I'll share my screen. OK, please let me know. Is it feasible? Yes, it is. OK, thank you. So for the past little bit about my introduction, I'm Pritam from a small town in Gopal, India, and I am currently doing my final year from IIT Patnipurna. For the past six months, I have been doing the part time internship with Hyperledger Mentorship under the mentorship of Sai from Carbon Action SIG Group and Peter from Cactus and Kamlesh from our India chapter. A little bit about the project, the involved project. The first was the Carbon Accounting project. This was a part, this is a part of a Carbon Action SIG project. It basically contains the two components. First is Utility Emission Channel. It is a permission Hyperledger fabric channel which contains the audited emission record of customer electricity data. And then other component is Emission Token Network. And this is an Ethereum smart contract which converts the emission data present on Utility Emission Channel into a tradable Emission Token. And the second and the Hyperledger cactus is a decentralized integration tool which allows us to integrate multiple blockchain. And for the mentorship, I use the, I use TypeScript, Nodejust, Express, Docker and Volt. And so these were the initial objective of the project. The first was to have Carbon Accounting project to use Hyperledger cactus. And the second objective was the private key of the client should be properly managed with the HashiCorp hold. And the last component objective was to prevent the double minting of Emission Token. And the problem that was there in the existing codebase. And so with that, there was also four deliverables. And the first was to replace all the direct dependency of the Carbon Emission application from Fabric Node SDK and Ether to cactus packages. And the second was to have a implementation so that the Fabric transaction could be signed by a private key stored in a Volt server. And the third was to prevent a double spending problem. And the last was design a Volt identity management for the Carbon Accounting application. So for the first, I have created, for each deliverables, I have committed to several Hyperledger projects. The first was, this was the initial PR to the Carbon Accounting. And the second was to have a mechanism so that the client's private key is securely managed. So now, most of the developer, what we do is like, whenever we want to sign a Fabric transaction, we first fetch the private key onto the server and then sign the transaction and then send it to the Fabric network. So now the mine approach was to have, rather than fetching the private key, why don't we send the message payload that needs to be signed? And then the signature can be sent to the Fabric. This way, the private key of the client will always be stored in a Volt server. So there you have a Volt server, a certificate data stored that will only contain a certificate of the client and not the private component. So you can see that in the Credential component part, we have only certificate, not the private part. So this was a better way than the simple, simply putting the certificate and private key together. So for that, I implemented this logic into the cactus as well as Carbon Accounting project. And the third objective was to prevent a double minting problem. So since we have two blockchain involved, first Fabric and Ethereum, and one of the logic was there to have a token minted corresponding to a data stored in a Fabric network. So this led to the double minting problem. So and you can see like we first get a valid data from the Fabric network and then corresponding to those Fabric data, we mint a token. And during this whole process, there was a problem of double minting. So with this PR, I solved the double minting problem. And about the project execution and accomplishment, the most, the component on which I am most proud of is the proposal and implementation of identity component of with the Volt server. And the most challenging part during my mentorship was to have to understand the cactus integration because it involves a lot of packages and it has a lot of moving parts. And third and the second was the understanding of the Hashiko Volt server. And there was, I completed all the deliverables, but there was some future work that needs to be done. And first one was that to design and implement the same kind of mechanism like for Fabric, signing the transaction with Volt server for Ethereum. That way, the Ethereum private key and the Fabric private key both will be secured. And the second is build a UI, which will use the API server that I built. So after my mentorship completion, these were the output that I was able to come. There was one carbon accounting API server which is now ready for production deployment. And I have also added a lot of test case so that it can be maintainable and other developer can also contribute to it. And there is with the Volt identity component, the private key management is more secured. And the last is a double minting problem was also prevented with my implementation of data lock chain code. And during the mentorship, the insight that I gained was I learned the workflow of a community driven project like of Cactus and the carbon accounting project. And working with peer developer from across the world. And the advice that I want to give for other new developer and the new mentee is to design and plan before jumping into port. Because this was the most crucial part and it helped me a lot. And set a daily or weekly target so that you do not get lost. And document a daily progress which is and the mentors and the community members are always to help you. Thank you. Any questions? Awesome. Yeah, Preetam, this is awesome and your collaboration with Peter and the rest of the team there is just great to see. And I know Arun is putting some notes on the chat as well. The mentorship program here at Hyperledger is critical for a lot of core projects. So next year we'll do the same batch of mentorships. But folks like Preetam, really thank you so much for your contributions. I think it's hopefully you had a good experience. Sounds like you had a great experience and was able to move some of those initiatives forward that the Cactus team was looking for. Yeah, thank you. Awesome. And I guess Preetam, there are questions on the questions asking about sharing the links that you have worked on on the chat. So you can share those. And thanks again Preetam and we know you have a busy schedule today and all the best for your examinations. Yeah, thank you. And we look forward to having great collaboration in future with you and also many more contributions from you at Hyperledger. And now we will switch over to Harish who is another Hyperledger mentee from the India region. And Harish, the stage is set for you. Sure, thanks Harish. Hi guys, I would just present my screen. Is my screen visible? Yes. Hello everyone, I am Harish Multani working as a blockchain developer at Ayaanworks. And my major tech stack is Indie, Ares, Ursa and Fabrik. So I was involved with the Hyperledger community from 2019. I've been working in Fabrik from 2019, started with sample POCs and then shifted to Ayaanworks and started working on production projects. There I got to know about the Hyperledger India chapter calls and started attending that. And when I was involved in this call, then I got to know about various initiatives that Hyperledger India chapter carries out like HyperHack 2021 they did. Then I got to know about the Hyperledger mentorship projects. As you all know that there are various projects under Hyperledger, there are around 16 Hyperledger projects. And the use case that I have seen in these mentorship projects are whenever these 16 projects are being used by businesses, they operate globally and they operate around different parts of the world. So every time there is some or the other new opinion that comes out, which leads to a feature being implemented. So these 22 projects are similar like these are features that we are implement that Hyperledger has seen and they wanted to be implement on different projects like Fabrik, Aeroha, Baro, Cactus, Caliper and Ares stack. So what I got to know about this is whenever these projects are being used by different businesses, they would always come up with some or the other different opinions. That would lead to, you know, new feature being implemented. So similarly, then I was implementing a project on Hyperledger Fabrik and Aeri integration to support Fabrik as a blockchain ledger. A little bit about this project, as we all know that Fabrik is the most used blockchain platform till now, as we just saw the insights from block data. And what they needed is suppose now a business is building a supply chain management solution using Fabrik. Now what they need is, now if they need to verify some or the other identity in that blockchain, they don't want to keep the identity related metadata on a separate ledger, which would be indeed in our case. So the business building the supply chain management solution, they don't want that our supply chain related data should be on Fabrik and the identity related data if we need to verify some identity that should be in indeed. So they wanted that, they wanted that the same data should be there, both data like supply chain management data and identity related metadata like credential definition or schema transactions should be there in Fabrik only. This was the, this was, this way the, this way this project arise, which involves supporting Fabrik as a blockchain ledger from Aries. So now Aries only supports India as a blockchain ledger, but after this need, there was a support to add Fabrik also as a blockchain ledger. So basically what we did here was in India there are three types of transactions that goes to the ledger, domain transactions, pool transactions and conflict transactions. The pool and conflict transactions that goes to the indie ledger are related to the indie network setup. So we don't need to do that at Fabrik because Fabrik there are different transactions that would be, that would play the role similar to what role is being played by the pool and conflict transactions in indie ledger. We only needed to support the six domain transactions that indie supports. Those six transactions that indie supports are the DID transactions, atrip transaction, schema transaction, credential definition, revocation registry entity and revocation registry definition. I would give you a bit about these six transactions. Did is a identity of an issuer that, that is registered to the ledger. It is registered with the public key of the issuer. So in a DID transaction, a DID document goes to the ledger, which includes the ID that is the DID, the public key that is where key and the endpoint of the issuer agent. Any agent for that matter. Then there are schema transactions that goes to the ledger. Now say suppose I am an issuer issuing a credential, an identity credential, where the attributes are name and age. So the schema would contain these attributes, name and age. So this goes to, this is, goes to the ledger from the issuer agent. Then there is credential definition transaction. Credential definition basically includes the public keys of the issuer. The private keys of that correspond to these public keys are in the issuer's wallet, which are used during signing. And the public keys that go, goes to the credential definition that goes in the credential definition to the ledger are used during the verification process. Now, like stop me if you have any questions in between them. The fourth transaction that is. Just one. I was wondering just in case, you know, you are showing a PPD. We are looking at Chrome, right? Yes, yes. Sorry, sorry, don't interrupt that. Okay. I have a presentation lined up maybe on 20th and 27th. That time I would give a proper demo and a PPD. No, thank you. Sorry for it. So the fourth transaction that I was mentioning about is atrip transaction. So here the, and basically atrip transaction is the transaction that updates the DIY document that already went to the indie ledger. The main update that happens here is the end point gets updated of the agent. Then there is revocation registry entry transaction. Here the, here there is one accumulator that goes to the indie ledger, which is used when a user is creating a proof to check whether a particular credential has been revoked or not. The revocation registry entry along with the revocation registry definition transactions is used by the user so that he can make a proof of a particular credential if the credential is not revoked. The entry transaction includes the accumulator and the definition transaction includes the witness delta. I would explain the whole process, maybe in the upcoming demos. And so these are the six transactions that goes to the indie ledger. So what we did here was we set up a fabric network and we make instead of these transactions going to the indie ledger, we directed it. It goes to the fabric ledger. So we didn't do any changes in the payload. Same because we wanted, we took the same payload that indie modules generate and we send it that send that to the fabric ledger because if in future some changes happens to the indie module or those payloads, we won't need to do any changes such that it also supports fabric. So the need won't be there and if in future some changes happens to the indie module, it would be, it would work with fabric also. The thing that I learned that my learnings from here was basically on fabric networks, specifically Docker, Docker network and how hyper ledger fabric is set up on your system and on cloud. And I got to know I got to read a lot about I read the fabric documentation and got to know about how the fabric network operates. We have some future plans for this project. In future we may or may not include support for other ledgers based on the based on the need is the business needs we may we can easily integrate support for sort of any other ledger for that matter. And one more plan that we have for this project is integrating the indie wallet with fabric wallet, such that both credentials related to fabric identity credentials and in the identity in the credential records schema records are kept at the same place. Ask a question. So currently, at the end of this in your architecture today you have both hyper ledger indie and hyper ledger fabric is hyper ledger indie is helping you manage the identity and hyper ledger fabric is helping you manage the business transactions. The question was, do you have now in your architecture you have both hyper ledger indie as well as hyper ledger fabric is. As in, we are integrating the fabric support in areas framework JavaScript, it is, and once that is done, the areas framework JavaScript would be able to support indie and fabric both as a legend. So we can define which we want to use the business that would develop the solutions, SSI solutions using AFJ, they, they can decide whether they want to use indie or they want to use fabric. Got it so basically if I understand this right so today with the solution that you have developed, I can use hyper ledger fabric for both decentralized identity and decentralized business transactions both. Yes, yes, sure. This was the need of the project because businesses like fabric today is being used in major shipping supply chains, textile supply chains. And in PBC projects and then in telecom projects to these businesses wanted to implement the identity verification workflows, mainly the self sovereign identity they wanted to implement. So we wanted we added that support in AFJ for now that would support fabric and India fabric as a legend. Thank you. Any more questions. So you said like you deploy this application in cloud, which cloud provider you're using. We are, we have not yet deployed it on cloud, we are, we are first, we would first demo it on local, and that that works, we would move it to cloud. We would test it with cloud. Okay, which is preferable. I mean, whether AWS or JCP. I have like, I have been whenever I was working in my company project. We are using, we are using AWS. Okay. So I basically use AWS. Thanks. Thanks, Arish. And, and, hey, so Dan, I believe the preferred cloud service provider would be when we deploy these projects. And probably what harsh wanted to say is the mentee project would enable support for a cloud deployment. So thanks, Arish. I guess now we have now reached a time off for networking and also celebrating the third anniversary for India chapters. And we definitely would like to thank all of you who have been supporting us for the last three years and in growing the community. Right. So we couldn't have been here without your support or continued support in terms of any contribution that you have been putting in. Not just the code contribution. So our type of ledger we have any type of contributions that you can possibly put in like you can possibly think of. You can participate in terms of improving the documentation you can participate in reaching out to additional like spreading the word about hyper ledger project or you can even participate in the special interest group if you are a subject matter expert. All ways participate in working groups and which are time bound and which are specialized in certain areas to work on, and you can always contribute to projects that eventually you will end up using. Right. And, yeah, there's a lot more so I would probably welcome Julie and to speak a little bit more about that. And then we will jump on to networking session. So you want to talk about how people get involved or get involved in projects. Yes, and also Julian if you can bring out the contributions done from India chapter, like starting from the first lead, right, like the way I'm all get got it all started. So you travel to Bangalore, three years ago. So if you can share some memories about that, that would be great. All right, so I got to dig out of my memory lots happened in those three years my goodness. What a journey. I mean this has been amazing I've been hyper ledger since that since I think five, six years now right. When we started off we had a technical working group in China, and I think it was three four years ago, we had this discussion actually Brian and and David Boswell, and a few others are saying how do we, how do we expand to help these communities globally right. And we came, I met up with with the technical steering chair at the time that and I also met up with a mall, I think we met in Switzerland was it a mall. It was right. It was in Switzerland that's why you've got those mountains in the background I didn't think Bangalore right. So we met up there in Bangalore and we thought about we planned this right as a new and decided rather than having a technical steering committee want to have a broader remit right. And they came up with that with the concept of a chapter, and a mall really you took that forward. We took that to the technical steering committee it got passed. And the rest is history, I think. It was launched during Brian's visit to Bangalore. Exactly. We had a lot of the industry leaders here. And that's when we formally floated the idea and we kick started that started off with with a very small initial meeting and look how it's grown and it's really a testament to the community and to folks like Arun and Kamlesh and Vikram and Rajesh and all the others who contributed so much towards towards this, this community in the last three years and of course, a lot of support coming from hyper ledger itself, from Julian and David and and Brian. Okay, I have to thank you more because you really did you took on you took on it it was a it was a new journey, and it was a new, a new construct which we put together right. And I think it's hyper ledger is one of the first kind of big limits foundation profits that's done these local kind of local, because in the end, think local act global, it all makes sense right that's how you scale. And that's how you get deep community. And we've had, you know, in terms of projects in terms of translation. We've had some of the some translation here to some of the local dialects in India. And we've done many, many, many projects and it has grown and grown and grown and then, as you say, you then handed over the mantle to Arun and Kamlesh. And we've had a university chapter. We've had all kinds of interesting kind of subgroups were very active on LinkedIn. We have I said weekly meetings which everyone is welcome to write. We have a lot of mentors mentees people are maintaining projects in India and I think that's grown and grown as well. So I think it's been a very, very successful and obviously as a, and obviously with Kamlesh and Arun they're also a bridge to that technical steering committee. And one of the reasons we really set it up is one obviously India on the prolific developer communities in the world, one of the largest right and great expertise right is time zones. So a lot of these meetings is I think Arun was saying we're going to have the mentees stuff but it's going to be late right. So what can we do in this time zone to get more people, more people involved. It's great. And I would Kamlesh you'd like to say anything as well so Kamlesh is I can see Kamlesh now on camera right. You're in a car. I love this Zoom world. So actually I was driving so I stopped at the highway. So I want to say some words. So, I think I associate with the India chapter from last three years when he started with Amol and Ajay to the community in the global front. And then we, Arun, myself and lots of other volunteers started contributing and helping community to build in a good prison. And then I represent to the Julian Dorothy and the brand is basically coming to the events and make the end of the successful in chapter. So, yeah, thanks to you and everyone and welcome Daniela and we are looking for the similar kind of contributions and stronger community in India. Excellent. And say hello to your child there with your child in the background to have a family. That's excellent. Excellent. So yeah we have a great community activity and I think the platform, we keep them raising the threshold of activity right. So, so thank you Kamlesh and I think Daniela it's great to have you here right. Great connection with Brian I think we're in great connection with what you're going to be doing here. So, I think I celebrate. We are going to be doing here all together. Yes, so we're going to be doing here together. So, you know, it's all about people it's all about community right. What we do here at Hyperlation as we say everyone is welcome so the more people involved the more diversity in our community the stronger the community so and the inner community has really really stepped up. The community I think lots of stuff that Arun did, like we did the, or Arun and Kamlesh did in terms of the hackathon right I think that was an initiative that had not been done before and you had. I think someone from Hong Kong won it in the end right the first, the first hackathon, just to show it's not just about India. It's about also India supporting the community around the world right so it's been an amazing, an amazing journey and we look to continue. Does anyone else want to, to, to reach out anybody else who has a Vikram you'll be involved a lot as well and others. Anybody else want to say anything, or we can go into the, we can go into the, into the network. Yeah. Sorry Vikram, yeah. Yeah, I think you know definitely you know I would definitely like to say that you know I have been associated with you know India chapter for about the last two years. And I think you know the hackathon was the one which got me initiated with this chapter and you know I have been since you know with this chapter since then. And you know we have seen this community grow and you know along with Hyperledger we have seen you know Hyperledger grow a lot. And similarly you know Hyperledger India chapter grew a lot. And you know it is a great place for anyone you know who are today on call to you know so to join our you know it would be great you know if you join our you know weekly calls on Thursday. And you know so we discussed what is happening with Hyperledger and you know what is happening with the community around. And also you know we have used that opportunity to help people who are struggling with Hyperledger fabric or maybe even you know with the technical issues or you know the technical questions. So I think you know it gives a holistic I guess you know support to that community so you know and you know community is as strong as you know the community members I would say so yeah. That's great. That's great and I don't you go do you want to say anything about from chain yard one of our members also she goes been involved a lot. I'm just picking people out randomly it's very cruel. Hey Julian thank you very much. I appreciate your your calling my name and remember me yes, I mean it has been very active in the in overall markets plays as well as I say one of the very first Hyperledger certified service provider. In India, I mean I've been working with, I don't know no more. I think I think the view your first visit to in the light I still recall you and Brian and anything as a mother and everybody. So, I think there's a lot more we can do. I'm sure about that but lot we have done. I think going to have a very, you know, three years of time to set the baseline. And, and there is from that you know you can use as a starting board. I appreciate that. Excellent. I'll stop picking people out now. So, yeah, thank you. Thank you. Thank you everyone and I think for new people here who are not involved reach out to anybody I think everyone is very supportive to help people make that connection into the community. So we're all here here together, a common purpose to help the community advance blockchain and work, you know, and help the Indian community and the global community. So I'm going to hand you back to a rune now I think we're going to do some networking and some fun stuff right. Awesome. And thank you everyone. Thank you, Julian. Thank you, Daniel and thank you all the pre mentees free to mind. And all the other mentees who are going to come and speak to us in the coming weeks. So I'm going to stop recording will venture into networking session. It's going to be open for everyone where we can all join in and random breakout rooms and speak about all the things right so how to get involved in the community will also have volunteers or moderators in each of those breakout rooms just to guide you around. If you're stuck somewhere. And also coming next week on 20th. We have great presentations lined up actually a panel by GGO and and also there are too many great events to look out for including we are going to have a blockchain in agritic space. We are going to speak about blockchain and tokenization space we are going to speak about blockchain and healthcare. So there's so much to learn over the course of next three weeks and we look forward to having similar participation from you in the coming weeks. So I'm going to stop recording now and we'll jump into networking session.

Because we're going to take advantage of the weather, we're going to take advantage of the time that we have and push them out to get a little work done. My first name is Timmy. Last name is Stampley. I work for US Army North, CSTA. And I'm their Urban Search and Rescue Evaluation Analyst. He changed everything that was on the paper. Our team put together the Urban Search and Rescue Trench Evaluation Lane. Seen that there are one of five military units that will work in a hazmat-type environment. We put a great deal of thought into the scenario to add these hazards to make them stay within the suit and then understand what these hazards can do to their suit as well as to victims. Two jobs, one for here, one here. Right now, the priority for the group supervisor is this. So that's our priority. My name is Sergeant First Class Ramon Garibaldi. I'm with the 216th Engineer Mac. I'm the first sergeant. I know, but once the data comes in, then we're done. Our mission here is Urban Search and Rescue with emphasis on contaminated environment. One of the biggest things we're expecting to do is show them that we're capable of proper techniques and then just overall improvement on trench rescue. My name is Specialist Garcia Ricardo. I'm with the 216th and we're out of Pomona in California. My unit's definitely learned a lot from this mission. We have a lot to improve on. There's always room for improvement. I think when we get back home, we have a lot of training to do. If we were ever activated for a real-life scenario, I have confidence in my unit that we can help people out and perform safe rescues. Our goal is to ensure that these units go into a catastrophic event, confidence, knowing how to do their jobs and go home safely.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to a very important topic, very important session that we have here this morning. I can tell you, I hope I'm not the only one who is a bit confused about the time change here in Morocco. I can tell you that. But we are live, of course. We are on with a very important session. Welcome, of course, to those who are joining us via livestream as well, ladies and gentlemen. We have wonderful speakers here who couldn't be better equipped to tell us about what the state of Europe is. Some basic European strategic issues. That is what the topic is. And the gentleman to my immediate left here is, of course, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Spain and a former President of the European Parliament. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Joseph Borrell. I'm delighted to welcome the Foreign Minister of Austria here this morning. It's a great to see her, Karin Kneiser is here, ladies and gentlemen, who apparently brought her own fan club. I like that. Delighted, the odd man out, if you will, these days when you're talking about European issues. Welcome to you, sir. Yes, all the way in the back. Thank you. And, of course, I'm delighted back. We already had the pleasure at the WPC last year. The 10th anniversary is the member of the House of Lords and a former Conservative member of the UK Parliament. Michael Lothian, ladies and gentlemen. Not an easy task to be the representative from the UK these days on EU matters. But I'm delighted to hear from you in just a moment. He's a senior fellow at Bruegel in Brussels and at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in DC. Nicolas Verron is here, ladies and gentlemen. And last but not least, he is a current member of the French Parliament and a former member of the European Parliament, Jean-Louis Boulange, ladies and gentlemen. Now, the way it's going to go, this is not going to be your typical future of the EU session, where all of us are going to bemoan the current state of the Union. But instead, all speakers have picked their own individual strategic topic that they would like to address when it comes to European affairs these days. And then, of course, we are going to open up for a very dynamic issue. So for Minister Vorel, the challenge of migration these days could not be more urgent. I am based in Berlin, Germany, where the topic is on the daily agenda, on the agenda of many of your countries. So I'm very curious and delighted to hear what you have to say about this particular topic. The floor is yours. I'm going to speak French. OK? Yes? Very good. It's not often that it happens, but I prefer to speak French. Well, listen, migration is a strategic issue for Europe with three titles. First, the point of political life. We have seen it well after the refugee crisis in Syria and migrants in the central Mediterranean, but now rather western. The question of migration is entered into a national country in a way that we could not have imagined a few years ago. It has a lot to do with the rise of populism. Migration has been used as a trap door, even as an excuse to approach in regressive recipes that touch the fundamental principles of the state of law, the separation of power and European values. These will have consequences for European construction. First, we insist on the debate, saying that there are some who want to open up the border and others who want to reform it. Europe for Teresse, an idea that takes the strength in the countries of the East. In the United Kingdom, migration has a lot to do with Brexit. And I believe that the immigration regime will become the most important risk for the European project in the near future. Great division between the East and the West. Second question, the economic perspective. We need immigration. We need immigrants. We will always need them. The reason is very simple. Everyone knows it. It is the difference between the demographic between the North and the South of the Mediterranean. We are old. Africans are younger and younger. We will need a job. The economic growth in Africa will not be sufficient to absorb the growth of its population. It will ask us for a difficult choice. What kind of economy will we have? It will be a digital economy that will not need a job. Will we be able to assimilate a work that is not too specialized? There will be a mismatching between the work that comes from Africa and the work of the European economy. And that is a question that has very strong economic problems. But finally, it is the social point of view that is perhaps the most important dynamic. We will have to build a complex, multicultural, even multilingual society. How will we achieve the level of opportunity for new citizens who arrive and who have major difficulties to integrate themselves? How will we be able to face xenophobia that rises everywhere? How will we be able to respect national identities and at the same time accept that a large part of the population will respond to other identity characteristics? I wanted to say to finish this brief consideration that we must not think that migration is a temporary phenomenon. Not a structural phenomenon. It is not a matter of management. It is a matter of strategy for the future. It will not happen. It will rise. All European debates will find the balance between solidarity and responsibility. And at this point of view, I would like to say that Spain and the Maroc kingdom have shown a very strong co-operation capacity to manage the migration flow that is found nowhere else in the Mediterranean. We must make a very clear distinction between asylum seekers and economic migration. It is not the same thing. But if we can make a distinction, we must be able to distinguish it. It is not possible. It is that in the Greek Islands, three years later, there are still thousands of people on the beach who have not been able to say that you are a asylum seekers. You have the right to stay or go to the continent where you are not an asylum seekers to enter Turkey. Neither one thing nor the other. The thousands of people who remain waiting for the administrative authorities to make their choice. We cannot say that there are asylum seekers or economic migrants and then not being able to make a distinction between one thing and the other. We must combine responsibility and solidarity to clearly say that we must have agreements with the countries of origin so that those who do not have the right to go to the asylum can enter Turkey quickly and efficiently. On the contrary, we will have thousands of people who will be disciplined in the underground economy and who will mine the foundations of our society. Thank you Minister Borrell for once again underlying the urgency of this topic saying rightfully this is not a temporary dilemma that we find ourselves in in Europe but a long-term problem and a long-term issue that we have to tackle with. An issue of course that is hotly contested and debated in Austria as well Minister Knaiser but I know that's not the topic of your presentation this morning instead it's my understanding you would like to speak about the implications of Chinese foreign policy in Europe these days. The floor is yours. Moderator, hello my ladies and gentlemen this is my brother this is my sister I thank you first of all Thierry de Montbryal it's a great blessing to renew this contact as someone who as a student read with great passion the publication of Ramses among others it taught me a lot geopolitical psychology and I also thank our others in the Kingdom of Morocco and thank you for inviting my presence here among you I would go further it's not only the foreign policy of China but it's an economic policy of investment that finally becomes a geopolitical strategy and that's what interests me in this subject the deliberations that I also made in my last publication before taking my mission as Minister of Foreign Affairs the title of this last book that I had written last year is called what in French we could translate by the relapse of La Garte moving from a transatlantic to a more peaceful which was already discussed in the American universities in the 1980s I remember the conference Asia Pacific Rim and then there was everything to change we focused again on the widening of the time etc but the American president of the time George Bush who also served as if you will the first ambassador to Beijing in the 1970s before the opening of an ambassador to Beijing Louis in his Chinese Diary had already made reflections on a subject that is very very current of our time especially this gap that started as a go-west strategy especially the relapse of the western province of the popular Republic of China and which became the road of self the road of investment I want to know all of you I don't want to summarize all of this as a foreign minister what is happening in southern Europe I prefer the term the word of the south-east instead of the famous Western Balkans one of this term that the European Commission developed and which lacks a semantic historical geographic basis but for us it is the word of the south-east Sarajevo is a beautiful European city which among you has seen once the Museum of Contemporary Art or visited a ballet at the Sarajevo Philharmonic here it is and it is a vacuum that we created because as I like to say before the 11th of September of 2001 many capitals had Balkan experts and after the 11th of September we exchanged them with experts for the fight against terrorism and we left this region it became a risk to become a certain vacuum and it is in this vacuum that several actors engaged economically but also politically we all know them I'm not going to waste time to talk about what is happening among all these actors but to put the point on the activities of China and also in Spain as we also left in the Mediterranean Occidental aimed at crucial infrastructures ports, airports ferroviares and often when we discuss this with colleagues of the region whether it's in Bosnia-Segovina or Montenegro the answer is a very logical question these are partners that do not cause too many questions they come with the investment and the assurance of all this infrastructure which is established and I would like to make some reflections because we have to first and foremost that's the demand of the European Union that's also the demand of the European Union we did not make a mistake of the Chinese potential but in demand of transparency in demand of the rules of play that are balanced in the Hainan Forum the Boao Forum the Davos of China we demand it but we are still waiting for the implementation and when we say really the strategic partnership that the European Union had concluded in 2003 which ten years after had given place to a strategic agenda from here in 2022 the way that the European Union has chosen is to establish more and more networks and strengthen the partnerships for a sustainable connectivity this approach to raise the challenges is first and foremost for the benefit of the citizens both in Europe and in Asia and we have to reinvent with China the multilateralism and reinvent first the notion of what we hear about the rules of play it is in this regard that I would like to draw your attention first of all also on all these programs that I just mentioned the root infrastructure et cetera we know the role of China in central Asia in the Middle East and it often goes in tandem with the problem of overuse and this question of overuse in my opinion is understimated especially by my colleagues within the Commission when it comes to Tenders I would like to conclude by the fact that I know nothing about the relationship of forces that exist in all initiatives international, structural where they come from so I do not think together the necessary to apply I come back to the rules the transparency the openness in the public market the respect of these rules of competition especially the intellectual property and the sharing of risks so we have to go beyond some acquisitions in the framework as it is currently going on so I am convinced that Europe and China know together to understand this essential principle to define a methodology that respects the interests of all of us and that this initiative will be able to develop the reconstruction of a more of a multilateralism effective as a response to the challenges that we face together we must never forget the historical context that is happening I remember when I taught in China 10 years ago I went to the summer palace of the emperor and when you look there as the echo of 10 years 12 years without presenting the destruction of the opium war of the middle of the 19th century that's what that's what the European barbarians have done that's how we present you sorry? yes yes yes I don't remember I remember those who haven't seen this site and that at the time it gave me a lot of reflection because it reminded me of my first visit to Persepolis so that's what we must never forget that there is this nation the oldest before Persepolis who also has a specific look at the relationship with the rest of the world besides a very specific historical socialization and that's what I think is sometimes underestimated or not really grasped by other actors so I would like to choose you for the debate on this question thank you minister for underlying the importance of the future of Chinese-European strategic issues that are yet to come sometimes we focus perhaps too much on transatlantic relations and inter-European relations of course for obvious reasons but it's very important to keep that side of the globe inside as well now Michael Lothian we meet it seems like it's the crucial period for Brexit it was so last year it seems to be this particular time I'm very curious to hear from you how you assess the current states of Brexit relations even though it's my understanding that you already in your talk you will already be a step ahead and talk about UK in a post-Brexit world thank you very much I'm delighted at the invitation to be asked to give a British contribution to this European discussion this morning I had hoped after doing so last year that when I came this year Brexit would be settled and I would have an easier time than perhaps I had last year but unfortunately that's not the case Brexit seems to grind on and on and like Margaret Thatcher once said she would go on forever I wonder whether Brexit will as well but I want to start again with a simple premise and that is that the UK is leaving the European Union with Brexit but it is not leaving Europe and that to me is an essential factor we are inextricably part of Europe our security is part of Europe's security our democratic traditions and cultural values let alone our history are inextricably linked with those of Europe but we are an island and it's there that the problem arose we've never felt at ease with the constricts of the European Union we could have lived quite happily in my view with the Europe de Patrie of General de Gaulle we could have made progress in the economic community which is what we originally joined but we were always uncomfortable with the drive towards ever closer union and eventual integration and that is where the crisis arose what I want to do is not to go back over the Brexit arguments but to now look forward to the post-Brexit future for now many areas remain shrouded in the midst of uncertainty if not the obfuscation of the negotiators so in a sense it's OTOs to discuss where the negotiations have got to that's not a criticism I did many negotiations in my time as a minister and I know that it's the end of the negotiations that are always the most difficult and where you keep your cards closest to your chest of course on the economic front Brexit will not be without pain not only for the United Kingdom but for the rest of the European Union as well and I think we have to face that Brexit involves fundamental change and fundamental change invariably in the short term at least causes turbulence and while some of this turbulence can be mitigated in the longer term my own view is that water will find its own level and that in the end mutual self-interest will bring about a resumption of profitable trade even if that takes a little time but there are certain areas already where we should be looking very closely at our future role in Europe first of all security in the face of current global insecurity it's already necessary to envisage a coordinated European response and I use the word European because this is not about the EU it's about the wider capacity of the nations of Europe inside and outside the European Union to deliver at a number of different levels and the first of these is intelligence I have an interest in intelligence I'm still on our intelligence committee in the United Kingdom in this turbulent world with growing sophistication of terrorist methods and monitor various levels of cyber and communications activity of these terrorists has already become crucial and it's generally accepted that the United States through the NSA and the United Kingdom through GCHQ are at the cutting edge of the ability to do this all European nations have the capability to one degree or another but here there is no room for false pride combining and sharing intelligence with a dead brainer the United States and the UK already do it at a very high degree and more widely as well and we've done so for a long time we may not stop every insurgent plot but between us we do stop the vast majority of them because of our ability to share this information Brexit may create a little more proper on all sides but it would be mad to allow it adversely to affect our counter-terrorist programs we should be preparing already to ensure if anything that the United Kingdom, the nations of the EU can share the maximum of intelligence most effectively to combat international terrorism this is an urgent matter of cooperation and it serves no one I have to say to have senior European Union members threatening to expel the United Kingdom from the Galileo project which after all we have contributed to for a long period of time the next area where we will need to cooperate is in facing the cyber challenge and this is becoming an increasing threat as well the scope of cyber warfare is expanding exponentially and we've already seen in certain parts of Europe not least in the Baltics the damage that it can do no one nation is likely to be able to combat that alone highly sophisticated cooperation and collaboration will be required and we need to be working urgently on that vital area now another vital area will be on the defence front with all the various elements that this must encompass over the next decade or so the United States will increasingly turn its attention away from the Atlantic theatre towards the Pacific and the existential military and economic challenge of China and this is not just Mr Trump talking about this I was in Washington two weeks ago very senior levels of the administration recognise that fact and hope that we recognise it as well it will not necessarily mean the end of NATO in its present form or indeed the United States military support for the European theatre however Europe in the widest sense is going to have to undertake more of the heavy lifting and the United Kingdom in my view is central to this in the military circles that the US in this engagement the military forces available to the member steps of the EU alone would not be fit for purpose in filling the breach that's going to leave the world around Europe becomes ever more fraught and it's a dangerous fantasy to believe that the European military capacity could step up to the plate without a substantial British component involved as well British military might be solely diminished from our glory days but we still have the equipment and the expertise to make our participation vital in particular in a war scenario where boots on the ground will matter less than technical know-how and top-flight machinery this will be even more the case because these are Britain's current military strengths add to that our acknowledged expertise in the field of special forces which will increasingly become the weapon of choice in any land war and Britain's role becomes even more relevant Britain will have a significant role in Europe in the future and I have to say we will be more than ready to play our part thank you very much thank you so much Michael and I'm sure in the Q&A part I know you have to leave a bit early at some particular point because you have a flight to catch let me just ask you one simple question is it possible to get a quick yes or no answer I mean there is momentum building in the UK right now people asking or demanding a second referendum saying we want to do this again we want to have a cast or a vote again do you think such a second referendum is realistic do you think such a second referendum will take place I don't think it will for two reasons one is we can't have a second referendum without having a parliamentary vote in favour of it and legislation and if you look at the British Parliament there is a majority for nothing and so I don't think you would ever get a majority to back it and secondly the argument for it is that it is somehow going to be a different referendum it's the same referendum on the same question and once you get into that it's not part of our constitution to have referendums you have a second referendum you have a third referendum you have a fourth referendum where do you stop really informed about the ramifications of this particular decision well if you have a referendum on a yes no basis and you must know this is a broadcast it's very difficult to get a full debate on every single issue it's bad enough during a general election and I think what's being suggested at the moment is a rerun of a yes no referendum I don't think the result would necessarily be any different thank you Michael yesterday we had a very important very very interesting session on the future of the euro and that's why I'm delighted now yield the floor to Nikolas Veron the senior fellow both based in Brussels and Washington DC Nikolas what can you tell us about the state and particularly international role of the euro yes thank you first I have to apologize because I wasn't there yesterday so I hope my remarks will echo bring a complementary perspective the euro has a bad press and generally panels about the euro are about all the problems there is a reason why there is this bad press because the crisis has been very long and protracted we've been through depending on where you put the starting point about a decade of crisis in the eurozone and very bad policy reactions at several critical points so a litany of errors especially in the first few years of the crisis and it also has a bad press for other reasons there is another reason which is a form of confirmation bias in academia a lot of observers of the euro have spent the 90s saying the project wouldn't fly it wouldn't take off when it did take off there was a sense of frustration so there is a temptation for some of the observers to say you know I told you so and let's face it there are also political interests at stake european strength is not is welcomed by some geopolitical actors it's not welcomed by others and therefore the success or failure of the euro becomes part of this more broader international political game what I would like to emphasize very briefly is that the story of the eurozone crisis is certainly a story of policy mistakes and learning frankly but it's also a story of survival and let's remember mid-2012 which I think was the most critical moment of the whole sequence of crisis even so by many aspects the Greek crisis of 2015 was more colorful but in mid-2012 even the most level headed observers could not take it for granted that the euro would not break up and we came probably pretty close to that moment of break up and at the crucial moment of decision which for me was the European summit of late June 2012 the eurozone countries decided to hang together rather than hang separately and I view that as the turning point of the entire sequence of crisis so as even Krastev's political philosopher has mentioned the fact that the eurozone has survived creates legitimacy just out of the sheer act of survival people trust more a construct which has demonstrated its ability to withstand crisis even with mistakes but it's not only that so basically survival creates legitimacy as of itself but it's not only that the eurozone construct is now much stronger than it was at the beginning of the crisis there are two main differences one is the creation of the European stability mechanism which is a kind of big pot of money about 500 billion euro which is far from negligible in lending capacity so that's pretty easy to understand the other thing which is slightly more complicated than more for half way house is a banking union but that makes also a big difference because those who remembers the negotiation of the Maastricht Treaty remembers that banking supervision was very actively discussed at the time of Maastricht and in the end it was ruled out because it was considered politically impossible so from this perspective the establishment of the banking union the single supervisor mechanism centered at the European central bank which means that all the financial system in the eurozone eventually comes under a single point of oversight what is the banking system which is the vast majority of the system that is really a big gap being plugged compared with the initial discussion of the creation of the euro now of course the counter argument is Italy look at Italy it's a disaster the eurozone crisis is not resolved nothing has changed I would like to take the point of that view and to say that the current developments in Italy demonstrate precisely how stronger the eurozone is now compared to previous points of the crisis and the first indicator of that and I speak under the control of Josep Borrell is that there is no contagion so spreads on Spain have not risen because of the rise of spreads on Italian debt there has been a bit of rise in Spanish spreads in the recent weeks for Spanish reasons and more generally you don't see the kind of patterns of correlation and contagion that were the rule in previous stages of the crisis and indeed if you compare the Italian government now with the Greek government three years ago or three and a half years ago which is a natural benchmark there was a Greek government who was constantly tying with the threat of exit and the possibility of exit idiosyncrasies of the current Italian government that's not the case so Italian leaders in their rhetoric and I would argue also in their actions are effectively committed to doing a lot of things that I wouldn't necessarily advise but staying in the eurozone and that's a huge difference so basically what I would say about Italy is to paraphrase the poet that Italy has 99 problems but your exit ain't one of them the strength of the eurozone is also observable in the restarting of the cycle of accession Bulgaria has entered a formal process of accession this is likely to be the case of Croatia and Romania pretty soon and even outside of eurozone accession there is a new process of joining the banking union without joining the eurozone which is probably going to be decided in the next two years and possibly later on by Sweden so basically you have the coming together of the EU 27 assuming of course which I do that there is no second referendum and the UK exits the EU as planned and probably on time then you have a greater coincidence between the eurozone, the banking union and the European unions and has been the case until now all EU countries to adopt the euro for example Poland, Hungary are probably not going to adopt the euro under the current leadership but you have an even greater dominance of the eurozone and banking union in the EU construct which I think is also quite important so what about the international role in his speech distributed outside mentioned the fact that the international role of the dollar is probably going to come to an end eventually. Is the euro going to be a substitute? That's an old debate people like Jean-Pizani Ferry who is in the room have contributed to that from a very long ago and it is pretty clear that the European Union is not ready to take the kind of leadership that comes with exorbitant privilege as Valérie Giscard d'Estaing put it famously of being the world's dominant currency Iran is going to be a testing ground of the ability to conduct transactions outside of the dollar zone and outside of the control of the US it's not just a currency issue it's certainly not a swift issue so it's too early to tell and it depends on what attitudes the US administration will take next month so I won't comment too much on this but I will simply say that if the eurozone the single most critical element for future international leadership of the euro is its ability to finish the job of building a single powerful financial system out of the 19 or 27 depending on how you count individual financial systems that we had before the crisis so completing the banking union, building a genuine capital markets union this is what will make or break the international rule of the euro going forward thank you thank you so much thank you Nicolas for giving us the overview of the international role of the euro which you argue is actually contrary to what some might believe is actually quite strong because it has already braced the worst crisis that we had in 2012 and is now prepared for the future currency that if I understand you is here to stay last but not least I'm delighted to welcome here from the French Parliament of course and somebody who knows Europe very well as a former member of the European Parliament Jean-Louis Bourlon Monsieur you have the floor I'm curious about your input I have a privilege I know we don't ask a precise question thank you I would like to talk in a different way that is to say in a more long term is located on a level of a different temporality and then in a more political way and you have talked with great ideas I would like to make a little bit of a political discussion in a few months of the European elections because I think it's interesting to see how Europe is the European project is in relation to our long-term sensitivities and how it presents on the electoral consequences I think the first thing to have in mind is the deeply contradictory character of the evolutions we have faced since the end of the Cold War since the collapse of the Soviet Union we have both a deep rise after a period of disappearance of the threat an absolutely deep rise of all threats which again creates a pressure to the European unification extremely strong Europe has never brought me that during the Cold War and especially during the Second Cold War which preceded the collapse of the Soviet Union and Europe has felt the European Union and felt again as extremely necessary geopolitical threats aggressiveness Soviet aggressiveness Russia sorry American uncertainty Islamic threats economic threats with the emergence of China as we have seen and now from a China really hard it's something different ecological threats with the climate problems with Laurent Fabius and which really gives us the feeling that we can't face all this together we are from this point of view never the phrase of the Gospel of Emmaus it's getting late let's stay together was so strong and then parallel to that we assist to a total total fragmentation of political societies a threat of ideological attacks against the European Union against the Brussels system but I am very struck of the parallel character between the movements of dislocation which is the threat of dislocation which strikes the European Union and the fragmentation of our national society from this point of view Brexit is exemplary we have both a attempt to break the United Kingdom in relation to the European Union and never at the same time the United Kingdom has been working to strengthen such vigorous centrifuges for several years but for several centuries but it's the same thing in Spain obviously with the Catalan we have seen a lot of nations especially those that were made at the initiative of France Belgium, France and England in the 1930s Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia which are either destroyed or threatened by destruction we have everywhere a reply on ethnic values and inside our societies we have a social fragmentation a political fragmentation a generalist party crisis and movements that turn more and more towards the small is beautiful and in France we saw this extraordinary form of political sociability which was the ZAD the Zone to Defend that is to say a few lands around an airport to protect or a center to avoid so we have a general fragmentation and between these two movements these two movements are deeply contradictory one is centripetal it favors the reunification the constitution of a strong union on other basis simply open a more defensive union a Copernican revolution Europe in the middle of nations and not the nations at the heart of Europe and at the same time we have these forces of implosion that nothing goes we have an anti-terrorist reply a protectionist reply an anti-elitist reply and an inability to remove common actions so in front of this we have I think a very deep involvement of the European political game I will define it quite simply by saying first a deep reply and that Emmanuel Macron should be aware of it it seems to me a deep reply of the European progress the European progress is something great we are in our Europe my dear friend Borel we developed it it was both the idea on the economic plan globalization is very good we look at protectionism secondly on the plan of values it is the migratory Europe we have to exchange welcome Europe and on the plan of the political organization what matters is the defense of fundamental rights a very strong corpus a corpus that exists a corpus that is even more powerful especially at the commission but it is even more electrically in a delicate position compared to that you have a conservative tendency what dominates is the conservation we want to preserve the climate we want to preserve our populations and our living modes we want to preserve our living level we want to preserve the euro we want to preserve the security you have all the projects and it is not legitimate the conservatism is legitimate but the projects are conservative including those who are reformers those who are reformers want to reform to preserve the conservatism takes two forms a form change something so everything remains the same it is the mainstream what can we change we have to do more Europe more European control we have to do more solidarity of the euro zone we have to have a much more voluntary and coherent in terms of the fight against climate warming we have to affirm our security to protect us against external threats we have to reinforce the fight against terrorism we have to make our democratic values a whole set of things that leads to a current which is a current that I will actually qualify as reformist euro that is to say both conservative and European and on the side of that we have a conservative reactionary or revolutionary movement that says we can't satisfy all of this all these people bring us to the brink we have to react deeply and there it gives the populist currents with their triple declination identity identity that is to say sovereignist protectionist xenophobic then a current a current egalitarian that is to say we have enough to be directed by elites on all of what we don't want and that is a current in the strict sense of the populist term and finally an authoritarian current democracy it doesn't allow us to fight we have to put the liberalism that is the second trend so the problem is between these three forces that the political game is playing a progressism that has a bit of a plomb in it a conservative Gato Pardis who is looking at the middle class and an ultra-reactionary conservatism the ultra-conservatism so how does it distribute I finish here how can it be distributed on the plan of the European elections the populism the reactionary conservatism is very strong but it is limited because it is revolutionary and therefore it makes the hole and I completely agree that it would not be economically but politically it is an absolute success everyone will be linked to the euro of all the right movements first it started with Cyprus which made a real conversion it was followed by Podemos I speak left on the right it was followed by Gardvilde it is the right the right to the Trichene all those who were in a contestation accepted the euro and so we have a kind of fascination of the anti-European discourse of a part of the populism and at the same time electorally all the projections that are made we have just done a study at the Jagdollor Institute which is quite interesting where we show that the populist movements should flatten around 25% and it would not be a measure to represent a counter-majority second movement the end of the condominium why? because both the right and left are deeply crossed by the progressive left-wing against revolutionary conservatism let's say the social let's say Borel against Mélenchon if I may say the things that way and with a great difficulty for the social democrats to keep their positions a strong pressure on the ideological ploy and on the right side of the PPE it's the same thing the PPE is deeply divided it will keep Orbán it's certain but the essential is to recover Poland if we recover Poland and the elections are not bad from this point of view if we recover Poland the Hungarians will become what they have always been that is to say the most intelligent of the marginals and the most marginals of the intelligent but that's another thing so we have an implosion and so the condominium can no longer work but at the same time the partisan system I forgot in the conservatist values I would like to mention but the ecology finally in the center we will have a system Macron had hoped to do a kind of hegemonic party in the center because the forces are too implausible there are too many conservatists there is no will to go too far and now we have a partisan system which will be extremely complex because it will mix a part of progressism which will remain very strong at the commission whose mainstream will be the conservatist-gathopardist which will be flanked which have for them the logic that is to say if you want to do something in Europe you have to have money so a budget and you have to have institutions therefore of the qualified majority but that's not at all the fashion I finish and you have finally the ecologists all this will build a system which will be in reality quite central which will remain quite central but which will be confused and we can quote in conclusion the true aim of Europe it has always been that of the great Belgian poet Henri Michaud never despair make an advantage very obvious we have 25 minutes left in this particular session and Michael are you giving me the cue that you have to depart? I have to catch an airplane you have to catch an airplane so ladies and gentlemen it's really the airplane it's not symbolic that the UK member is leaving the panel that's not what it is not about the thank you very much very nice to be here thank you Michael we won't overestimate and read into the symbolism of this particular act but we wish you a safe flight back if you will safe flight back Michael if you will you can push up the seat that way it probably looks a bit better on the picture ladies and gentlemen I'm fairly certain that in the midst of these very interesting presentation we'll have an accumulation of some comments remarks and questions if that's the case please indicate so that we can do a very quick Q&A session in the remainder of the time if there are questions please let me know by indicating and I will incorporate you based at this particular point I have a couple of questions on my own Minister Borel the issue of migration obviously and it's become very clear throughout the presentations here on this panel has led to a rise of populism and populist parties throughout EU national parliaments Spain on the other hand despite having gone through some hardship economic hardship itself part of this particular phenomenon there's no significant populist movement in Spain to speak of what do you think the Spanish case is so different I wouldn't say that in Spain we don't have populist movements yes we do we don't have xenophobic reactions we don't have anti-migrants reactions but there are populism that are not like that and that's a good question why does Spain first of all Spain did not receive the number of migrants who received Italy Italians have been abandoned by a European they have asked for help and we the Spanish and the French have looked on the other side while in Spain we did not have this great concentration like in Italy, like in Germany there are two summer now it starts we have almost 40,000 arrived during this year but there would be in the background of the Spanish society a sense of solidarity that is shown every day in the support of migrants in the south in Andalusia maybe because we were a people of migrants maybe because we needed a lot of work maybe because our migration was mainly Latin American and it is much easier to integrate someone who speaks the language and who shares a cultural, religious tradition it is much easier much easier to integrate people from South America than people from Africa, I think it played but in Spain we do not cross our fingers this reaction against migrants, this reaction against foreigners, this idea which is developed in the east of Europe to say we want to be a pure society we refuse migration we close ourselves we do not see migrants and we have had the great failure to try to attribute obligatory quotas in the east it did not work and normally it must not work the desire is deep in society I think this is the most important reason I hope that we will continue to be a land of support and we will continue to have with our neighbors from the north of Africa, Morocco a policy of cooperation that helps us a lot Thank you so much The cooperation obviously when it comes to migration is a very important one Your government particularly its junior partner has been making statements that could be defined and interpreted as xenophobic and anti-refugee anti-migrant issues now the criticism that your government and your junior partner has received in the international sphere is widely known Would you say when we talk about the future of Europe and Austria in particular that there is no danger that Austria is drifting to the right on this particular front Do you think that the concerns that your government has been issuing and voicing these refugees and migrants are very much in place Could you be a bit more specific about your junior partner No about your criticism because I don't understand your question At this particular point the xenophobic sentiments that your junior partner has Can you give me a particular example because I'm not aware of a particular example You're not aware Well I'm German speaking as well To be more specific because you're putting here a very general statement but I would be very keen to have for instance a kind of quotation or something just to be more specific So the proposal for instance to have people of Jewish faith to register is that something that in the news No sorry that's really Is that fake news? No I'm not saying this is fake news but this is something where you're not taking out something that was decided under a previous government in a specific province when it comes to distribution about ordering a certain type of food and this has been something that was decided in a province by a previous government so not by the current government but by the national government you're speaking about the regional government Well then let's put it very bluntly and clear with a very simple yes or no answer You're saying the government the Austrian government is not drifting towards the right Is that what you're saying? Your question was xenophobia So please give me a very specific example about the national government where anybody of us like the Minister of Foreign Affairs because I'm sitting here I'm in charge of foreign affairs can you please give me a very specific example where for instance I have been pronouncing myself as xenophobic The accusation or rather the statement is obviously not directed towards you personally or your particular party On the government But give me a specific example I can give you a specific answer Well obviously I don't have the statements now from your junior partner I'm making now statements and I don't like this kind of just putting accusations into the room so if you're specific I'll give you a specific answer So then let's broaden up because obviously at this particular point you're not comfortable No it's not about comfortable I would like to join here this conference is called World Policy Conference I would like to be specific on global issues But of course the topic that we're discussing here are about some basic strategic European issues So the more you become specific the more I can be also I don't like this kind of you know just general fluffy statement Well let's talk about the specific goals then of Austrian new presidency Let's talk about what Austria is in the midst of contributing to a sound safe and prosperous EU How about that? Yes with glider can answer on that Well wonderful we have come to an agreement Thank you very much specific question, specific answer We are now in the third fourth month of the EU presidency and what I as Minister of Foreign Affairs try in particular and I've briefly referred to it when it comes to Southeast Europe I've spoken about the vacuum that we have in Southeast Europe and where I think that we feel close geography is the constant factor of history as we know a large diaspora of people with Serbian, Kosovo, Albania whatever origin and we have an absence of perspective in particular for the young population there and my first visits all went to Sarajevo, to Belgrade, to Zagreb because it's a region that we know about its importance being surrounded by EU countries and not having the clear cut perspective versus a European future so I fully understand the scepticism and it was my deputy also referred to the European elections in Paris, in the Hague whenever you speak about enlargement in that part of the world you of course have a sceptic I think there is something that should be relativized I will end here with the big difference between the French and the Germans on Europe it's the following it's that in France you won't find the European status quo you will have either people who are against who want to come back or people who want to go further in Germany they are very happy of Europe as it is and if it doesn't work better it's because people don't respect the treaties as they are so there is a difference of approach which is sensible and it explains a little of the disadvantage that you pay to President Macron because he came with the idea of saying to him going forward, well no France takes the feet but Germany and since Maastricht, since the reunification is satisfied of Europe as it is but now Europe is threatened and you will have to leave from the front and keep track because I know we are running out of time Nicolas you are both based in Europe and the US so you have a double perspective if you will on issues now the current US President obviously has made no secret about it that perhaps he doesn't issues and relations with Europe are not his number one priority the relevance of the EU diminishing from where you standing when you are in DC and speaking to your American counterpart is that what you are encountering that Europe is losing in terms of influence and relevance in that part of the world I think there are different time cycles and different issues here in terms of the fact that Europe is not central in how the US looks at the world this has been a long standing trend President Obama was nicknamed the Pacific Presidency that he didn't have a background in Europe he wasn't interested in Europe so nothing very new here clearly the US sees a major security issues in the Middle East and in China the European Union has been seen as low priority simply because it was not a hotspot of problems and that's not the Trump presidency I think the question which is still unresolved like so many questions about the Trump presidency is whether this administration will be aggressively hostile to Europe because what President Trump has said that the European Union was set up to take advantage of the US and to put the US in a difficult position that is unprecedented this is something that no previous president has said so I wouldn't frame it in terms of relevancy relevance I would frame it in terms of is the US going to be aggressive against European integration or is it just a flutter and some things that will go away I think we don't know yet I would say that Europe is actually more relevant in a way because it is more of a counter way to some impulses of the Trump administration certainly in trade or in climate change there was an American administration that it was in a previous certainly under the Obama administration so that creates conflict and conflict creates relevance but we're not it's basically too early to tell Minister Krasil we're almost out of time but I do want to get a sense because when we talk about Europe and this particular panel has been no exception of course the needs for solidarity is always being stressed if you look at the future and talking to your European counterpart such as Minister Borrell what is your sense since we're slowly winding down how optimistic are you about the state of the European Union about the role of the European Union going forward and its relevance in world affairs well what I have always been proud of as a European citizen is that it is built on treaties and just a few days ago in October we had the signing 370 years ago of the Treaty of Westphalia which was in my assessment the beginning of modernity in Europe because it was the beginning of the territorial state it was the beginning of the equality of the sovereigns and also of international laws so everything we have seen in terms of evolving also of multilateralism but Grotsios Richelieu an idealist and a realist one of them who had been drafting to a certain extent the Treaty of Westphalia and later much later that is that for me is what Europe is about normative basis and credibility and here I think in order to remain credible in particular with regard to China it's all about are we complying with our own normative obligations and this leads to what has been stated also when it comes to currency affairs this in my opinion right now in foreign affairs is a lot about the Iran nuclear disarmament treaty the JCPOA a phrase that all of us have studied once upon a time when going into international relations is Pactos on Savander treaties have to be preserved the trust in the end is all about the trust in signatures that we have what Europe has always been standing for so in order to remain credible to be considered a player we have to fulfill our own obligations on a normative level and here going far beyond solidarity because solidarity is a nice catch word but you have to enshrine it into norms and I would like to see and I repeat myself a Europe moving out of this mentality of bean counting the crema sealant that we have the buddha procs that we have here and there and going more into understanding the bigger geopolitical challenges and this I miss on many levels and for that it's a level of humanistic education that sometimes you have backbone and a certain degree of courage and self-confidence and that's how I understand my work as in my current position as EU chair from time to time it's necessary to call it spade as spade courage for rather the desire for a more courageous and self-confident Europe going forward we're going to end this panel the way we started at Minister Borrell I want to give you the opportunity to wrap up this particular session with the very same question of course forward about the future of the European Union the union that your country has been a part of for many decades you also somebody in your role you travel all over the world you talk to people what is the assessment the international assessment of Europe do we still have the means do we still have the influence to be a relevant player in world affairs not as much as needed you know before the EU crisis when I was traveling by South America people asked me you are a success story tell us how we should do in order to repeat your integration process it was before the crisis we were economically booming absorbing a lot of migrants and being something that people were looking at us as something to be followed to be imitated then the crisis came and I think we have lost ten years for many European countries and today we don't make the weight in front of the big big powers that are emerging I think the future of Europe passes through bigger integration stronger integration but not all of the members are ready to do so for them they are not willing not just United Kingdom who is living other countries don't want to integrate better Germany is at their optimum is in a situation where it's very good the situation he has why should Germany change but if you want to have a role in the world if you want to influence the global world then even Germany alone is too small we have to integrate better and more but knowing realistically there is not the will for doing that in many European countries so the key word for me is differentiated integration around the Eurozone and the Schengen zone two track Europe we are ready to track Europe some members share currency others don't share the member states have abolished their borders others they are very much stick to their borders two of the most important characteristics of a state the currency and the border some of us we are sharing it and others we refuse to share it so the differentiated integration is there it's nothing new I'm trying to end on a hopeful and optimistic note but I understand and appreciate your honesty of course about the concerns that you have vis-à-vis Europe particularly with as you've said and I quote you some member states are not ready willing to move this union along now ladies and gentlemen some basic European strategic issues obviously this is a topic that we could have gone on for the next 2-3 hours a topic that will be with us for a very long time because I think that much has become clear throughout the very passionate and eloquent statements here Europe will have a place and will have a role to play in role affairs whether I would like to or not the question is of course in what scope size and capacity ladies and gentlemen John Louis Boulange please join me in thanking them thank you so much

Ziti Pasta
Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef, 100% grass fed, grass finished
1 lb. ziti pasta, I used shell Banza pasta for lower carbs, more fiber, more protein
2- 28oz jars of Rao’s Marinara sauce
¾ cup sour cream, Daisy brand
¾ cottage cheese, Daisy brand
1 lb. mozzarella cheese, grated, divided
½ cup parmesan cheese, divided
1 heaping tsp. Fresh rosemary
1 handful of fresh basil, chopped
1 small hand fresh Italian parsley, chopped
1 large yellow onion, super fine dice
1 heaping cup of cremini mushrooms, finely diced
Salt
1 tbsp. Olive oil
⅓ cup of red wine to rinse out the marinara sauce from the jars, optional
Directions:
Preheat oven 375 degrees F.
Pour the Rao’s sauce into a stockpot and put the heat on low. In a large frying pan over medium heat add a tablespoon or more of olive oil. Once hot add the onion, mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Saute for 10-12 minutes stirring frequently until the onion has softened. Then add this to the sauce.
Boil a stockpot of water to cook the noodles. Once the water comes to a boil, cover and simmer until it’s time to cook the pasta. You want this ready when needed.
Peel the petals off of the rosemary and chop until fine. Add this to the sauce. Layer the basil leaves about 8 high, roll and then cut. You’ll end up with nice ribbons and then cut in the other direction. Once chopped, add to the sauce. Repeat this process with the parsley. Here you want to shave the leaves off with your knife to minimize the amount of stems. Chop until small and add to the sauce.
In the same frying pan that you cooked the onions in, toss in the ground beef over medium high heat. Break up the meat with your spatula and add some salt and garlic powder. Cook until it is no longer pink. Drain the grease and add the beef to the sauce. Stir until everything is well blended, cover and simmer for at least 10 minutes. Longer is better so if you can simmer for 1 hour that is great too.
It’s now time to cook the pasta. Add some salt to the water and then add the pasta. Cook 1 to 2 minutes less than the required time so that your pasta is al dente. The reason for this is that it will continue to cook when the dish goes in the oven.
While the pasta is cooking, place all the cheeses in a medium size bowl, the cottage cheese, sour cream, ½ half of the mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese and another small handful of chopped parsley. Stir well.
Drain the pasta and then add it to the pasta sauce. Stir to combine.
Layer ½ of the pasta sauce into a 10 x 16 baking dish. Then layer on all of the cheese mix, spreading it with a spatula and knife the best that you can.
Finish the top layer by adding the rest of the pasta sauce. Sprinkle the other half of the mozzarella cheese over the top and finish with ¼ cup of parmesan cheese.
Bake in the oven at 375 degrees F. for 25 - 30 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted and heated through.
Enjoy!

Hey everybody, today we're making ziti pasta, a nice casserole for you. It's sort of like lasagna if you haven't had it before. Nice and cheesy and creamy and just delicious. I'm also going to be doing a healthy twist with it, of course. I'm gonna be using some really quality ingredients, which we're gonna go over in a little bit. So I'm Rockin' Robin and I'm gonna show you how to do it right after this. We're gonna start off with our chef joke and don't forget there'll be another one a little bit later in the video, so stay tuned. What do you call something that tastes like pasta, looks like pasta, but it is in pasta? And in pasta, like I said, we are making this as healthy as we can and I love to read labels. So if you're like me, you're gonna love this recipe because I've read all the labels and I know that there's only good quality ingredients in this recipe. So first up, I'm using Bonsa Pasta. Now this is supposed to be a zita pasta recipe, right? But Bonsa doesn't make zita type noodles that I've seen. So I'm using the shells here and you can use any pasta you want really. I chose the shells because they kind of hold the sauce really nicely in it. Now you can see in the ingredients on this, you can compare the Bonsa Pasta with average regular pasta and you can see how much protein there is in each one, the fiber and the net carbs. Now I'm using ground beef. You could use sausage or a combination thereof. If you want to, I'm using some ground beef here but it is 100% grass-fed and finished. Next up is my sauce. I'm using a spaghetti sauce that I think is really clean, really good quality and you can get it at Costco. So check this out. This is Rayo sauce that Costco has the best deal ever and that's where I buy it. So check out these ingredients. You can read every single one of them. We've got Italian whole peeled tomatoes, olive oil, onion, salt, garlic, basil, black pepper and oregano. Love it. We'll also be using one finely diced yellow onion. I have some super fine diced here on some commini mushrooms that I really diced up small. If you want to leave them larger, you can. I've got some rosemary fresh out of my garden. Now for my herbs, I'm using fresh basil and fresh parsley and I tell you, it really makes a difference. I put this in my sauce and it just really makes that sauce so much better so don't miss that step. We'll need some salt. I'm going to use garlic powder today. We'll need some olive oil and for our cheeses, I'm using some grated mozzarella. I'm using some sour cream which by the way, if you read the ingredient list here, I'll show it to you and you can see what's in there. It's just nice and clean. And I'm also using some cottage cheese. Again, the ingredients are very clean. And the last thing is some Parmesan cheese that's been grated. Here's our setup. I've got a pot of water back here that I'm starting to boil so that that's for my pasta and it will be ready when I need to cook it. Over here, this is going to be my pan for my sauce and we can go ahead and just pour that in now. Now, if you happen to have a bottle of red wine sitting around that's opened and you want to use it for some cooking, you can pour a little bit, this is optional, but you can pour a little bit in your jar to kind of get all the rest of the reo sauce in the pan and you add a little extra flavor. In our frying pan over here, I'm going to saute the onions and the mushrooms. And we'll do that for, I'm going to do it for 10 minutes. So you want to get some olive oil in there, toss in your onions. Here goes our mushrooms. Got my temperature on medium high and once this gets hot, then we'll lower it and just, like I said, just saute it until it gets nice and soft and a good 10 minutes should do it. Once the onions get going, I'm going to put in a little bit of salt and you're going to want to stir these periodically. All right, next up we're going to take our rosemary and I'm going to peel off the little petals. And you can always use a little bit more of the fresh rosemary than you would if you were using dried. Okay, and then we'll just, I want to chop this up nice and fine. So you want to measure about a teaspoon of the rosemary. Okay, if it's a little over, that's not a problem. And I'm going to place that in my sauce. Now I'm turning the temperature on this to low to start getting it hot. Next is our basil. I'm just going to take the leaves, pile them up. That's what you do. Get rid of that stem there. So you stack up a few like this. You want to roll them, give them a nice little roll. And then you're just going to slice just like this. And you get these nice little ribbons that go in really nice into your sauce. I like to cut them just the other way, just one time or two, just so they're not real long. I'm going to continue cutting up the basil until I get it all in the sauce. We're going to do the same kind of thing with our fresh parsley. So I'm just going to take some and just kind of shave it off so I don't get too many stems. All right, have a look at our onions. It's been about 10 minutes. They are nice and soft and they are ready to go into the sauce. And we'll give that a nice stir. Look at this sauce, nice and rich. Look at that. In the same pan that we cooked the onions, I'm going to place the ground beef in the pan now. I'll add some salt to the ground beef and some garlic powder. Cook this until it's no longer pink. The ground beef is done. You can see there's a fair amount of grease in there. So we're going to strain it and place it into our sauce. Stir that in. All right, once I get that mixed in there, we're going to turn, keep the temperature. It's on low and we're going to simmer this for at least 10 minutes. Longer is always better so the flavors can mingle. And I'm going to cover it so that it doesn't reduce. It's time to cook the pasta. We have our water boiling here and we're going to put a little salt, and toss in a little salt into our water. The pasta says it cooks for nine to 11 minutes. We want to under-cook it by a minute or so just because it's going to go, the whole dish is going to go back in the oven for another half hour. So you just want to under-cook it just a bit. While the noodles are cooking, we are going to take our bowl here and we are going to add all of our cheeses together. So I have the cottage cheese here. I'm going to place it in a bowl. I'm going to combine everything. Cottage cheese, sour cream. I'm going to toss in the Parmesan cheese and the mozzarella. And I'm also going to add a little bit of parsley to this. I'm going to shave off some and just chop up a little bit and toss it in. Sprinkle that in and give it a stir. It's time to drain the pasta. All right, here's Chef Joke number two. Did you hear about the pasta and its cooking water? The relationship was strained. All right, I'm going to take the pasta and I'm actually going to just pour it right into my sauce. I like to have my noodles totally coated in sauce. Give that a great stir. So I have a large baking dish here. This is something like 10 by 16 approximately. So I'm going to layer half of the pasta sauce in the dish first. Now we're going to place all of our cheese sauce in the middle. Now spread this out the best you can using a spatula and a knife. Now we'll top this off with the rest of the pasta sauce. So we'll finish this off with some more grated mozzarella cheese and then some grated Parmesan cheese. In the oven we go. This goes in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25 minutes. Take a look at this casserole after about 25 minutes. You want that cheese to be really melted and everything's piping hot. Here's our ziv pasta right out of the oven. It is beautiful. Smells wonderful. Let me scoop some of this up. You don't even really have to cut it because the noodles are little. So look at this. Oh my goodness. Dig in. Mamma mia, that is delicious. You gotta try it. I have a wonderful recipe for you to compliment this pasta dish that you're gonna love. Guess what it is? My ultimate garlic bread. I'm gonna leave a link for you right over here. You must try that. It's made with roasted garlic. Thanks so much for watching today.

Welcome to Barns Takeout. My name is Martha Lucy. I'm Deputy Director for Research, Interpretation, and Education at the Barns. And today we're going to be looking at a painting by Pierre Auguste Renoir called Washer Woman and Child. And here it is in the center of this wall at the barns. We are in room seven, which is on the first floor just off of the main gallery. So I chose this work because Mother's Day is coming up this Sunday. And I can't think of a better picture in the collection that kind of celebrates motherhood. And I'm going to talk about why that is in a few minutes. So this was painted in 1886. And the figures in the painting are Renoir's wife, Eileen Sherry-Go, Renoir, and his first son, Pierre Renoir, who was born in 1885. So he's about a year old here. Pierre was the eldest of the three sons that the Renoirs eventually had. And Renoir painted this when they were in Essois, which is a small rural village about 150 miles southwest of Paris. And that was actually Eileen's hometown. And the Renoir spent summers there. And Renoir, Pierre Auguste Renoir, is actually buried there. So, but the painting's not called Eileen and Pierre. He titled it Washer Woman and Child because I think he wanted it to be a more general celebration of kind of the human relationships, but also of rural life, sort of peasant life. And you can see very faintly in the background that this is almost sort of like a genre scene. It's a portrait, yes, but it's also a genre scene. And there are figures in the background that are hanging laundry. There's actually another version of this painting. It's a pastel that's at the Cleveland Museum of Art, and it was probably done before this oil painting. But in the pastel, you can see those figures in the background much more clearly. So, yeah, it's a celebration of rural life, but more than that, I mean, what this is really about is a celebration of motherhood. And you can see that in the way that Renoir just creates such intimacy and warmth between mother and child here. Look at the way that the bodies are just kind of collapsed together. You can feel the weight of that flesh as Eileen is holding her son. And look at the way I'm going to zoom in on this. I love this detail. The way that her lips are just pressed right up against his little cheek. But also the naturalism in the child's behavior. He's not posing for the picture. He's sort of looking off into the distance the way a child would, maybe kind of squirming a little bit. But what I really love about this, and what I think Renoir captured so well here, is the physicality of motherhood. It reminds me, looking at this picture reminds me of when my kids were small, and I could hold them. And the joy that came from that physical part of the relationship, that the smell of their flesh and the feeling of the flesh kind of pressed against yours and the weight of them in your arms. All of that feeling of oneness that you have with your child when they're little, and when you can hold them. You can tell I missed that. And Renoir really does create a sense of, I think, these two figures as a unit, just in terms of his formal treatment here. He painted this during a time when he was completely rethinking his goals as an artist. So again, this was done in 1886. And he had been one of the main members of the, one of the founding members of the Impressionist group during the 1870s, where their goals were about spontaneity and fleetingness and painting really quickly and sketchily. And he had begun to really rethink that during the mid-1880s. And he said, he said, I think I've taken Impressionism as far as I can go. I need to really go back and relearn how to draw. He became more interested in solidity and kind of the qualities of the eternal rather than the fleeting. So things like solidity and weight and more control over the brush became more important to him. And he actually traveled to Italy a couple of years before doing this because he wanted to really look at Old Master paintings. And he looked at Raphael and he looked at Fresco. And you can see Raphael in this image. I think that he is, you know, we could think of this as almost a, it's a Madonna and child. It's a modern Madonna and child. And he is taking the way that Raphael kind of would frame his Madonna and child images by, you know, he would center the figures and kind of push them up close to the picture plane and just create this real feeling of harmony and balance the same way that the way that Renoir is doing here. Now, I just mentioned, maybe I didn't, that he, when he was in Italy, he looked a lot at Fresco painting. And Fresco painting is done directly. It's done with very dry paint, like a temperate right on, right onto the wall onto, usually onto wet plaster. But it has a sort of matte look to it. And although this is not Fresco, Renoir is actually using oil here. The painting has a kind of matte look to it because I think he's, he's thinking of Fresco and he's trying to imitate that. And, you know, if you look more closely, you can see down here in the apron and in the clothing, really, that the painting does have this matte quality. And what he did was he blotted out as much of the oil as he could from the pigment. And he, before he started painting, he applied a second layer of priming that was this kind of chalky layer because he was trying to, it really seems like he was trying to create this appearance of Fresco. One question that we have about this painting is whether it's finished or unfinished. When you look at the faces of the figures, they're pretty highly worked up. But then all around here, around the edges, it's much sketchier and the figures in the background are very faint. And it looks like he has started blocking in the color down here, but never really finished. Curiously, though, the painting is signed, which suggests that it was finished. So maybe Renoir just sort of got to a point where he said, you know what, I was planning on working up the whole canvas, but this is as far as I want to take it. And there's reason to believe that that's what happened because the person who owned this painting before Albert Barnes was Leo Stein, the brother of Gertrude Stein, and Leo collected with his sister. And he had this painting, and he wrote in a letter to Barnes as Barnes was thinking about buying it. He said, you know, I think that what happened was that Renoir just decided that he was done with this. So it's a question. Um, that is it for our takeout today. Happy Mother's Day. Hi, Mom. Love you. Everybody have a wonderful weekend. Thanks. I'm Tom Collins, new Bauer family, executive director of the Barnes Foundation. I hope you enjoyed Barnes takeout.

we are learning quadrature formulas to obtain an approximation to a given integral on a bounded interval a to b. In this today, we will learn a commonly used method called Gaussian quadrature rule. Gaussian quadrature rule generally gives a better approximation to the integral a to b f of x dx when compared to the other quadrature rules that we have derived so far. Let us see how to get this better approximation. Well, if you recall the quadrature rules that we have derived so far are of this form where x naught x 1 up to x n are given to us. Once we are given the nodes then the unknowns are only the weights w naught w 1 up to w n. In the last class we have seen that we can use a method called method of undetermined coefficients to obtain these weights. Of course, we can also obtain these weights by directly integrating the Lagrange polynomials in the interpolating polynomial of the function f of x. But in the method of undetermined coefficients we have another approach to find these weights by imposing the condition that this quadrature rule finally gives us the exact value if the integrand f happens to be a polynomial of degree less than or equal to n right. So, this is what the condition we impose to get the weights. Once you impose this condition this is equivalent to imposing the same condition on the corresponding monomial basis right that is what we did in the last class. In fact, it is possible to derive a quadrature formula in such a way that it gives us the exact value of the integral if the polynomial is of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1. Can you see how we can achieve this? Just think why we need to impose this condition that is why we need to impose that the quadrature formula gives us the exact result for polynomials of degree less than or equal to n because in that way you have n plus 1 elements in the monomial basis and here also you have n plus 1 unknowns right. So, that is how we are matching the number of unknowns with the number of equations in the system and getting a closed system of equations. Now, if you understand this logic then you can understand how to get this condition on our quadrature formula that is we now want our quadrature formula to be exact for polynomials of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1. How can we achieve that? Well why you have to fix the nodes you also consider the nodes to be unknowns that is the idea behind getting this condition. So, now we will not fix the nodes, but we will also obtain the nodes as well as the weights. In that way how many unknowns are there? Let us think about that you have n plus 1 unknowns coming from the weights and you have n plus 1 unknowns coming from the set of nodes right. In that way you have 2 n plus 2 unknowns therefore you can impose the condition that the quadrature formula will be exact for polynomials of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1. In that way the corresponding monomial basis will have 2 n plus 2 elements in it they are 1 x x square up to x to the power of 2 n plus 1 right there are 2 n plus 2 elements in the basis and that can lead to a system of equations having 2 n plus 2 equations you have 2 n plus 2 unknowns therefore there is a scope to solve this system to get all these unknowns. So, that is the basic idea of this improved version and that is called the Gaussian quadrature rule. Let us make it more precise you want to evaluate this integral for that you are using this quadrature rule which can give us an approximate value to this integral. Now in this process what are all the unknowns that we have to choose well we have to choose all the weights they are not given to us, but we have to obtain them and also now we have to obtain all the nodes. Previously nodes are given to us, but now we are not going to take the nodes as per our choice, but we will also obtain this nodes as the part of the method. Therefore, you have 2 n plus 2 unknowns we have to impose the condition that this quadrature formula will be exact that is it gives you the exact value of the integral as long as the integrand f is a polynomial of degree now less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 1 less because your monomial basis will have 1 x up to say if your polynomial degree is n then it goes up to n therefore you have n plus 1 right. So, if you are going up to 2 n plus 1 then it has 2 n plus 2 members and therefore, you will get 2 n plus 2 equations on the other hand you have 2 n plus 2 unknowns therefore, you can solve this system to get these unknowns that is the idea. Remember in order to keep our calculations simple we will impose this idea on the integral minus 1 to 1 remember our aim is to find a quadrature rule for the integral a to b f of x dx for any a less than b right, but in this calculation we will always restrict ourselves to the interval minus 1 to 1 keep this in mind we will first derive the formula once you have the formula for this integral that is integral over minus 1 to 1 then we can use certain transformation to get the integral over any given interval a to b that is the idea this restriction is purely because our calculations will become relatively simple in this case that is why we are doing this. So, let us try to derive the Gaussian rules for the integral minus 1 to 1 f of x dx later we will transform it to any integral a to b f of x dx let us keep this restriction in mind and go ahead. So, what we are going to do is we want to evaluate this integral and we want our quadrature rule in this form we will assume that this quadrature rule gives exact value if the integrand f happens to be a polynomial of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 that is equivalent to imposing this condition on the monomial basis only that is we will impose the condition that this quadrature formula is exact for the integrants 1 x x square up to x to the power of 2 n plus 1. So, that is the final condition that we will be imposing right. Now, you see you choose a n that is all do not go to choose the nodes different n leads to different quadrature rules n equal to 0 will give you a quadrature rule for n equal to 0 and similarly n equal to 1 gives a quadrature rule n equal to 2 gives a quadrature rule like that as you go on increasing the values of n you in fact, get a better and better approximation to your integral all these methods are called Gaussian quadrature rules only. Let us try to derive the quadrature rule for n is equal to 0 remember this is the general form of the quadrature rule and we want to take n is equal to 0 here right in that way our quadrature rule will look like this and what is the condition that we have to impose now well we have to impose that this is exactly equal to that is what I am writing here the quadrature rule if the integrand f happens to be a polynomial of degree 2 n plus 1 right n is equal to 0 therefore, it is polynomial of degree less than or equal to 1 that gives us 2 elements in the corresponding monomial basis that is 1 and x therefore, you have to get the weight w naught and the node x naught by imposing the condition that the quadrature formula gives exact value if f is equal to 1 that is this and f is equal to x that gives us this expression. Now, from here you can get a pair of equations each coming from these conditions you see now we do not have a linear system because the unknowns are x naught and x 1 and they are not appearing linearly in this equation therefore, in the Gaussian quadrature rule what you get is finally, a non-linear system of equations that is 1 level difficult in the case of Gaussian rules when compared to the quadrature rules that we derived in the previous idea right there we are given the nodes therefore, the unknowns are only w's and in that way it gives us a system of linear equation, but that is not the case here you will get non-linear system of equations, but in the present case it is very easy to solve this non-linear system. In fact, you can easily check that it leads to w naught equal to 2 and x naught equal to 0 and in that way the quadrature rule finally, reduces to this expression. So, what it says is the Gaussian rule for n is equal to 0 for the integral minus 1 to 1 f of x dx remember this is a particular case 1 minus 1 to 1 f of x dx is given like this. If you recall we have come across this method already in one of our previous classes what is that well you can go back and see that this is what precisely we called as the midpoint rule remember the midpoint rule is b minus a into f of the midpoint of the interval a plus b by 2 right in the present case the midpoint is 0. So, that is what is this and b minus a is precisely 2 here in this particular integral minus 1 right therefore, what you get as the Gaussian rule for n equal to 0 is precisely the midpoint rule that is what is interesting here. Let us go to the next case now we will take n equal to 1 and see how the Gaussian rule with n equal to 1 looks like again in this case we have to take our general quadrature rule and put n is equal to 1 in that to get this expression. So, this is the general form of the quadrature rule that we are interested in the present case here we have to obtain the weights w naught w 1 and also the nodes x naught and x 1 right therefore, you have to impose the condition that your quadrature formula will be exact for all polynomials of degree less than equal to 3 therefore, your monomial basis will now contains the elements 1 x x square and x cube for each we will get a non-linear equation. Let us see how it comes when you take f of x identically equal to 1 you get this equation when f of x equal to x you get this equation f of x equal to x square you get this equation and finally, f of x equal to x cube gives you this equation you can see that you have 4 equations it is a system of non-linear equations and you somehow have to solve this system you can see that w naught equal to w 1 equal to 1 and x naught equal to minus 1 by root 3 and x 1 equal to 1 by root 3 will solve this system of non-linear equations therefore, the Gaussian rule with n is equal to 1 is given by this formula now as you go on increasing n the number of non-linear equations will also increase in your system and also their expressions are quite complicated and thereby solving their system of non-linear equations will also become more difficult one can go for certain non-linear solvers like Newton's method and so on, but we will not give any weightage for such problems we will just stop our derivation of Gaussian rules only up to n is equal to 1 however, we will just give an idea of how to go about with n equal to 2 3 and so on in general for n in general we need to obtain the weights and the nodes such that you can approximate the integral minus 1 to 1 f of x dx by this quadrature formula for that we have to impose the condition that this quadrature formula will be exact for polynomials of degree less than equal to 2 n plus 1 right because we have 2 n plus 2 unknowns in our problem ok. So, those non-linear systems in general are given by this expression and therefore, you have to solve this non-linear system that is a quite difficult task and once you solve this non-linear system and get the weights and the nodes then you have the Gaussian rule for that given n ok. So, n equal to 2 3 and so on one can go on deriving, but we will not give any weightage in our course we will only restrict ourselves to n is equal to 0 and n is equal to 1 in our course, but the idea should be clear how to go for higher values of n well we have derived the Gaussian rule. So, for only for those integrals over the interval minus 1 to 1 right. Now, let us see how to generalize it to any given interval a to b this can be achieved by this simple change of variable formula that can take the interval minus 1 to 1 to any interval a to b right. So, you just have to impose this change of variable into your integral you are interested in finding the integral a to b f of x dx, but you have the Gaussian rule only for integral minus 1 to 1 right that is you have only the Gaussian rule defined for this kind of integrals that is integral over minus 1 to 1, but that is not a serious problem because you can write this integral a to b f of x dx as b minus a by 2 into the integral that is comfortable for us to apply the Gaussian rule right. Now, remember if you want to evaluate an approximate value of this integral you should not put the Gaussian rule for this f, but you have to put the Gaussian rule for this function that is the only extra information that you have to remember when you are applying Gaussian rule on any integral a to b f of x dx students make this mistake quite often they just take this f and apply the Gaussian quadrature rule for this f only you should not do that you should apply it to this integrant therefore, the Gaussian quadrature rule should be applied to this integral and then you multiply it with this number in order to get an approximate value of this integral using Gaussian rule that is 1 extra work you have to do you should not forget that. Let us try to evaluate the integral 0 to 1 1 by 1 plus x dx remember our integral is not over minus 1 to 1 therefore, you first have to carefully use the change of variable which we have shown in this slide and obtain this function with a equal to 0 and b equal to 1 now and then apply the Gaussian rule ok. So, in the present case the change of variable happens to be x equal to t plus 1 by 2 therefore, this is the given integral and that should be now rewritten in this form and then apply the Gaussian quadrature rule for this integral remember that is what I am just emphasizing do not apply the Gaussian quadrature rule for this integral this is wrong ok you apply the Gaussian quadrature rule for this integral. So, that is you use this formula this is the Gaussian quadrature rule for n equal to 1 similarly for n equal to 0 also you can do what is f now f is not the one which is given to us, but f is the one which you obtained after putting the change of variable right that is 1 by t plus 3 and that gives you this value ok. So, this one transformation that you have to do without forgetting and that is very important you see what is the mathematical error involved in this calculation it is something given like this well again I am give you a caution that although I am calling it as mathematical error ideally it is actually the total error ok. Let us see how the mathematical error estimate looks like we can obtain an estimate in the case of Gaussian rule. Let us assume that f is a continuous function defined on an interval a to b and you have some n and you also obtain the Gaussian rule for that given n then the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian rule with that n is denoted by m e n of f and you can estimate the mathematical error by this inequality ok. Where this rho is nothing, but the infimum over all degrees q less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 infinite norm of f minus q remember you should go back to our previous classes and see what this infinite norm means it is nothing, but maximum over mod f of x minus q of x right x belongs to the interval a to b that is what is mean by this notation and we call it as maximum norm or infinite norm ok. So, what you are doing is you are taking all the polynomials of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 and obtaining the maximum norm of that minus f and then taking the infimum over all those numbers and that is what is called as rho 2 n plus 1 of f and the upper bound of the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian quadrature rule is given like this. Let us see how to prove this it is not very difficult assume that the infimum is achieved at some polynomial which is denoted by q star 2 n plus 1 it is a polynomial of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 right then rho 2 n plus 1 of f is precisely equal to this because infimum of this is what is the definition of rho and we are taking that infimum to be achieved at q star right therefore, if you take the infinite norm of f minus q star that will be exactly equal to this number right that is by definition and now look at the mathematical error of f you can see that the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian quadrature rule evaluating the integral of f is written like this why it is so because this is actually equal to 0 because by the derivation Gaussian quadrature rule gives you the exact value for all polynomials of degree 2 n plus 1 right and q star is a polynomial of degree less than or equal to 2 n plus 1 therefore, Gaussian quadrature rule gives you the exact integral value that means the mathematical error involved in the value obtained from the Gaussian quadrature rule for q star is exactly equal to 0 right so what I am doing is precisely the mathematical error in f is equal to the mathematical error in f minus 0 that is all I am putting I am not putting anything extra here right therefore, this is always true now you just check that the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian quadrature rule for the integrand f plus g is nothing, but the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian quadrature rule with integrand f plus the mathematical error with integrand g ok so this is very simple to check it comes directly from the linear property of the integral in fact right now I will use this simple property in this expression and that tells me that I can write this expression like this right so I am just having this of course with a minus sign here and that I am writing like this with a minus sign here that is what I am doing and now we can see that the mathematical error in f minus q star can be written like this this is precisely the definition of the mathematical error this is the exact value minus the quadrature rule that is the Gaussian quadrature rule is this so this is exact value and this is the approximate value so that is the mathematical error right now let us take the modulus on both sides and use the triangle inequality for the modulus and then take the maximum norm on this integrand I am doing all this in one step you can see that the right hand side in fact can be written like this after taking a modulus with less than or equal to sign ok so you are just dominating modulus of this by this quantity you can easily check this what I am doing I am just taking the modulus and using the triangle inequality for the modulus and I am also using the condition that a to b f of x dx modulus is less than or equal to a to b mod f of x dx this is also a property that is well known for the integrals I am using that also here I am first taking modulus here and then pushing this modulus inside the integral and then dominating this term by its maximum that is how I am having the maximum norm here and then what remains is integral a to b dx right that is nothing but b minus a and you can also see that this term can be dominated by this that is not a difficult thing of course you take the modulus and then take the modulus inside the summation ok and then you get this I hope you can do this to this and then without any problem and now you can see that all this weights with the modulus will sum to the length of the interval b minus a so that is what is very interesting once you put this into this term you will see that you will get back the inequality that we want to prove remember this is what we have taken as rho 2 n plus 1 right and this will be another b minus a therefore b minus a plus b minus a will be 2 times b minus a that is what precisely we want to show and this gives us an estimate of the mathematical error involved in the Gaussian quadrature rule with this we will end our class thank you for your attention.

Because of the very nature of the structure of Nigeria, the total spend on health care is not just what federal government is spending, it is actually what the states are spending and the local governments are also spending on health care. Now the basic thrust of our health care policy is primary health care. So we're using the primary health care institutions to deliver health care at the local level. Now there is a sense, and many people will say to you, why don't we have standard hospitals? Standard hospitals in Nigeria, standard teaching hospitals and all of that. Now you know of course that there are some, you know, there are some efforts especially with the teaching hospitals. But the major problem is not with just creating standard hospitals because the vast majority of our people live in the hinterland and the vast majority of our people need primary health care. It is only by referrals and all of that that you get to the teaching hospital. So the very first problem of a large population is getting health care to the last mile, to the man who is staying in some village somewhere, which is why primary health care is so important.

I feel like we should go through a recession because I feel like we're due for a recession. And if we get this recession and it helps to wipe out inflation, I also would like a recession because that would affect the crypto market and it would go down. I'm being honest. I've been dollar-crossed averaging for quite some time. If we start to see a reduction in prices, that's great because I still think we've got two years. And what I'm talking about is we're just taking a look at the value itself. This is the crypto market cap and trend line. And you can just see this red line here is the fair market value. But one thing you'll notice is that we're rarely on a fair market value. And we can see that a lot of times now we're actually below it. And when does it happen? Well, it happens in the time when I would say it's a good time to accumulate for me. I don't know what you want to do, not financial advice. So if a recession comes, I think that's a great time for accumulation, not great times for people in their jobs, I'm sorry.

It is therefore now time for Question Period. The leader of the National Security Council. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Premier. The Premier has forced the Auditor General to essentially become a rubber stamp to allow clearly partisan government advertising to be approved. This is not acceptable. Mr. Speaker, will the Premier do the right thing and restore the Auditor General's oversight of government advertising? Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. And I would just say to the member opposite that Ontario was the first and remains the only jurisdiction in the entire country that has legislation to prevent partisan advertising, Mr. Speaker. That is the reality. And while partisan advertising is now banned, it is still permissible and it will continue to be permissible and important for the government to inform the people of Ontario about initiatives that impact their lives. So let me give some examples of the kinds of things that people need to know about, getting the flu shot, updates to the sex ed curriculum, consumer protection, sexual violence and harassment awareness, organ donations, Mr. Speaker, and letting families know about our fair hydro plan is important too, Mr. Speaker. There are aspects of the plan, the increases to the Ontario Energy Support Program, better application-based, Mr. Speaker. It's important that they go to the website and that they understand what's available to them, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, again to the Premier. The Premier says this government hasn't taken away the AG's oversight. Who do we believe this Liberal government, under multiple OPP investigations, or the Auditor General, who has clearly said that the powers have been stripped, that there's partisan ads running on the air right now as we speak. What fantasy world are they living in? They're running ads right now. They're abusing taxpayer dollars right now. They know it's wrong, Mr. Speaker, but this is a government that's had a history of abusing taxpayer dollars. So rather than pretend you have not stripped the Auditor General of that right to have oversight, will the Premier do the right thing and stop running these partisan Liberal ads at the expense of taxpayer dollars? Mr. Treasury Board. Yes, thank you very much. And you know government advertising plays an important role in informing Ontarians. And I think we all know that sexual violence has a devastating impact on the lives of victims and their families, and it's far too prevalent in our society. If you look at the Who Will Help campaign launched in March 2015, it challenged existing attitudes. And what were the results? Well, you caught yourself on an oops-site. I'm glad you did, because the member from Leeds, Grenville, will come to order. And there's a couple of others that are on the edge. President? Who Will Help campaign was viewed by over 7 million, generated more than 85 million views worldwide. But the important thing is there were results within six months, 55% strongly agreed that they had an obligation to intervene when witnessing sexual harassment. Final supplementary. Mr. Speaker, again to the Premier, these are diversion tactics. They're mentioning ads that the Auditor General did not have problems with. What we're seeing right here is Auditor General has pointed back that the government took away oversight and is now taking advantage of that by running ads that are clearly partisan, that should be paid for by the Liberal Party, but instead they're charging to taxpayer. I don't want diversion tactics. I don't want talking points. They stripped the powers from the Auditor General to abuse taxpayer dollars for self-interest vanity ads. I'm asking the government to do the right thing. Mr. Speaker, to the Premier, rather than talking points, yes or no, will you restore the powers of oversight that you took away from the Auditor General? Here you go. Can you say it, please? Can you say it, please? Thank you. President. Senator. Well, thank you very much. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Perhaps the Leader of the Opposition can then explain why they did not do the right thing in 2004 and voted against the bill that introduced the most stringent and limitations of partisan advertising in our province. Why did, Speaker, the member from Simcoe Gray, the member from Renfrew, Nipissing, Pembroke, the member from York, Simcoe, the member from Perrystown, Muskoka, the member from Haldeman, Norfolk, the member from Oxford, the member from... The member from Leeds, Grindel, Second Time, the Minister of Labour, Cumber Order and the member from Dufferin, Caledon. Finish, please. All these members I just named, Speaker, still serve in this legislation. They did not... You want to do that? I will, too. The member from Dufferin, Caledon, Second Time. As soon as I sit down, don't start up. Why did these PC members did not... did the right thing in 2004, Speaker, and voted for a bill that put an end to Mike Harris' style partisan advertising? Speaker, we all remember that our advertisement of Mike Harris where he flicked the lights off on Ontario and closed hospitals and closed school speaker. Thank you. New question? The Leader of the Opposition. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Premier. We have many great phenomenal physicians here today with Ontario Medical Association and I'm sure members across the aisle have been hearing from these physicians in communities across Ontario. I know I heard about the Canadian Institute for Health Information's annual report. The report revealed patients are waiting longer for cataract surgery. Last year, only 70% of patients had their surgery within medically accepted timeframes. This was down from 86% in 2012. The facts speak for themselves. Patient care is being diminished. Mr. Speaker, cataract wait times are getting worse, not better. How much longer is this government going to fail patients? Well, Mr. Speaker, let me... I know that the Minister of Health and Care is going to want to speak to this as well, but I just want to welcome the OMA and the members to Queen's Park thing. Doctors are an essential part of the healthcare system, Mr. Speaker. They're essential to the delivery of a strong and sustainable healthcare system. We're working to deliver on our mandate in healthcare, Mr. Speaker, to improve access, reduce wait times, improve the overall patient experience, and we want to do that in partnership with doctors, Mr. Speaker. So we are going to work to continue to improve that partnership. I look forward to having an opportunity to meet with some of the membership today, and I know that members across the House will be having those meetings, and thank you very much to the OMA for being here. Mr. Speaker, again to the Premier, it's a bit rich hearing from the government here today in the House when they vilify and disparage our physicians across the province. It's not right. Physicians devote passionately, dedicated in their work life to care for patients, and the reality is we have 29,000 doctors who go to work and put patients first, and this government is not putting patients first. I didn't get an answer about cataracts. Maybe I will in the second response, but what I want to know is what is this government going to do about the chronic underfunding of healthcare. Everywhere I go in Ontario, I hear about hospitals that are struggling to make ends meet. I hear about physicians who are really not helping yourself. Mr. Speaker, whether it's hospitals that are underfunded, whether it's nursing cuts, or whether it's physicians who have the biggest diminishment of morale because of this government's cuts, it's not right, and what I'm asking of the government is can I get an answer on the underfunding? And is there even one physician in this province that actually supports this government? The record in healthcare is embarrassing, Mr. Speaker. So, Mr. Speaker, I am going to take this opportunity to do a shout out to my dad. He's 91 years old, Mr. Speaker, and in Richmond Hill in 1952, Mr. Speaker, he practiced with three other doctors. He was on call every other weekend. When York Central Hospital was built, which wasn't until I was in my teens, Mr. Speaker, until then, he had his rounds at what is now Southlake, but was York County, Mr. Speaker, and we'd go up with him while he did his rounds, and we'd wait out on the lawn. Many Thanksgiving dinners, many Christmas dinners were interrupted by kids being born, Mr. Speaker, that he would go and deliver, because, of course, he was practicing during the baby boom. Mr. Speaker, I know exactly how hard doctors work. I know exactly how committed they are to the system, Mr. Speaker. Cedar, please. Thank you. Final supplementary. Mr. Speaker, again to the Premier, unfortunately, those roads, those words are hollow when you have a minister of health who disparages and vilifies physicians across the province. Those words ring hollow when you introduce health legislation routinely in the House and don't control. The member from beaches east York. Please finish. This government introduces health legislation and doesn't include doctors. They're not at the table. They have no voice. It's not right. For three years they've been working without a contract. You know, it's not a big secret that we have a pretty ugly relationship right now between the provinces, physicians, and the government. We have 29,000 hardworking doctors, and they deserve some respect. They deserve a voice. And what I'm asking the Premier to actually answer, if you're not going to answer my question on cataracts, can you at least tell us, Mr. Speaker, can the Premier at least tell us when physicians will actually be at the table? Question. Thank you. Mr. Health and Long-Toon Care. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and I too want to welcome Ontario's doctors, including medical students who are here today for many meetings with, and I encourage all of my colleagues on all sides of the House to take those meetings and listen to what the doctors have to say. But, Mr. Speaker, the Premier a number of weeks ago indicated that we were committed to binding interest arbitration. They were committed to making that the first item to be discussed when we sit down with our doctors, and I'm pleased to say, Mr. Speaker, that last night those negotiations did begin with the first order of business to negotiate a process and an agreement for binding interest arbitration with Ontario's doctors so we can move forward to other aspects of hopefully an agreement with their physicians in the weeks and months ahead, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The cost of electricity has gone up over 300% under the Liberal government, including 50%, just since this Premier took office. Families, businesses, municipalities and public institutions like schools and hospitals are suffering under the crushing weight of their hydro bills. Yesterday it was revealed that the new CEO of Hydro One took home $4.5 million in 2016. Does the Premier think there's anything at all wrong with this picture, Speaker? Mr. Speaker, you know, I'm very concerned and have been for some time starting in 2013, Mr. Speaker, we were working to take costs out of the electricity system in order to reduce people's electricity bills, Mr. Speaker. We recognize that more needs to be done. That's why our fair hydro plan is going to take 25% off people's bills come summer, Mr. Speaker. And for people who live in remote and rural communities, Mr. Speaker, they're going to see a 40% to 50%. And Mr. Speaker, we're going to hold those increases for at least four years, Mr. Speaker. We understand that the improvements that have been made to the system had a cost associated with the, Mr. Speaker, and that's why the fair hydro plan is in place. That's why people will see the investments come summer, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. Supplementary. Mr. Speaker, $4.5 million for the new CEO of the privatized Hydro One, which is 10 times more than the average of other hydro CEOs in Canada. If the Premier plans to pull Ontarians to see what they think of this $5 million CEO salary, she should save her money because I can tell her straight up people are outraged and they are insulted by this salary. Just situation. Minister of Energy? Minister of Energy. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Pleased to rise and talk about this subject, Mr. Speaker, because I do know that the salaries are high and much higher than those of the vast majority of Ontarians. And I know Mr. Speaker, many Ontarians are struggling to pay their electricity bill and that's why we brought forward the 25% reduction for small businesses, farms and families, Mr. Speaker. But when it comes to Hydro One, Mr. Speaker, they've transitioned into a very good company, Mr. Speaker, a publicly traded company and not a government agency, Mr. Speaker. And let's look at what they've done over the last little bit, Mr. Speaker. They've made $60 million in productivity savings. They've improved their health and safety performance to the best on record, Mr. Speaker. They've advanced multiple initiatives for customers aimed at reducing their electricity rates, Mr. Speaker, and they took the initiative as well, Mr. Speaker, of reconnecting all of their disconnected customers back in December, Mr. Speaker. Now I know the majority of the executive compensation is contingent on meeting more... You are finished. I thought I was standing to get attention. Thank you. Final supplement. Mr. Speaker, it's unfortunate that all of the benefits are going to the top executives and the shareholders of the corporation. But at the same time as the Premier is defending this $4.5 million CEO salary, her Minister of Energy seems completely comfortable with the idea that mandatory use pricing is no big deal. Talk about being out of touch, Mr. Speaker. $4.5 million for a CEO while this Premier is punishing parents for cooking their dinner at dinner time and seniors for staying home during the day. Does the Premier think this is the right thing for the people of Ontario? Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Of course, we're pleased to act and help those families, Mr. Speaker, with a plan that's actually going to reduce their bills by 25%, Mr. Speaker. Not a plan that is pie in the sky, Mr. Speaker. Not a plan that's going to wait decades and decades before they'll even think about talking about helping low-income individuals, Mr. Speaker. We have acted. We have acted because we've listened to the people of Ontario and brought forward a plan that will reduce their bills by 25%, Mr. Speaker. That's significant when it comes to time of use, Mr. Speaker. Again, it shows that they have no idea on the system, Mr. Speaker. We are making significant savings, a 5% savings on conservation, Mr. Speaker, which then takes more cost out of the system, because we don't have to build more generation. It just shows that they're pie in the sky when it comes to electricity, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. You're my next questions for the Premier, but talk about pie in the sky. They didn't come anywhere near reaching the targets that they set in terms of taking energy off of PQs and conservation. I can't pretend what the facts are around here. Look, the Premier told Ontarians repeatedly that the government would be able to maintain control over Hydro-1 even when the sell-off was complete. If that's the case, and the Premier does have control over Hydro-1, why hasn't she done anything about the outrageous salary that the CEO is currently collecting? Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We are a shareholder in Hydro-1, Mr. Speaker, and that is something that is very clear. And when it comes to, again, Mr. Speaker, the importance of recognizing that, yes, these salaries are high, and yes, Mr. Speaker, we recognize that they are much higher than the vast majority of Ontarians. And we also know that Ontarians are struggling to pay, many Ontarians are struggling to pay their electricity bill. That's why, Mr. Speaker, we brought forward our plan. The Fair Hydro Plan is the single largest electricity bill reduction in our province's history, Mr. Speaker. We're making sure that low-income individuals will actually have their bills reduced by 25% plus, Mr. Speaker, the Ontario Electricity Support Program, which will help them even more. Low-income individuals were not even mentioned in the NDP idea, Mr. Speaker. We're making sure we're helping every family in this province, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. Somehow people are supposed to be happy that the Liberals have increased their bills by 275%, Mr. Speaker. I don't think they're happy about that. Look, if the Premier is unable to rate in the CEO's salary even when she says the government maintains control at Hydro One, can she explain to Ontarians why she has spent years trying to sell the clearly false idea that even when the Hydro One sell-off is complete, the government will maintain control of it. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I know once again we've talked often about the sale of Hydro One and the benefits that we're going to be doing and investments and infrastructure, Mr. Speaker. But the one thing that, you know, the third party doesn't talk about, Mr. Speaker, is our government acting to eliminate coal. We now, Mr. Speaker, do not have coal part of our electricity system. And this morning, Mr. Speaker, we heard from kids. We heard from children that live in our province that now can actually go outside and play because we no longer have smog days, Mr. Speaker. Because of the investments that we've made as a government, we're actually benefitting families right across the province. And we recognize, Mr. Speaker, that that cost more. That that cost more, Mr. Speaker, $50 billion is what we invested to make sure that people can go outside and breathe. And while they wouldn't do that, Mr. Speaker, we did. And now we're making that as affordable as possible for people right across the province, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Premier is defending a ludicrous $4.5 million CEO salary. She refuses to stop her wrong-headed sell-off of Hydro One even now, even though it's now very, very clear that the government will have no control whatsoever of this new corporation. She and her minister clearly do not understand the struggles that families are facing with time-of-use pricing. When will this Premier show Ontarians that she is actually serious about more than buying support for the next election in the face of sinking pool numbers, do what's right for the people of Ontario, not her political party, and stop the disastrous sell-off of Hydro One? Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's under the leadership of this Premier, Mr. Speaker, that we are investing in infrastructure right across the province, Mr. Speaker. It's under the leadership of this Premier, Mr. Speaker, that we are reducing bills by 25% on average, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As we can continue to talk about the investments that we made, we spent $50 billion, Mr. Speaker, investing in a system that was left in tatters by both opposition parties, by freezing rates, cancelling ideas, not moving forward at all, Mr. Speaker. They kept kicking the curb, kicking to the curb the electricity system. We didn't do that, Mr. Speaker. We invested, we built a clean system, a reliable system. Thank you. My question is to the Premier. The Liberal government has waged an ongoing battle with Ontario's doctors. Many times, they've created the illusion that doctors' billings equal their take-home pay. Instead of working with doctors, time and again, the minister and this Premier have unilaterally cut patient services and attempted to blame the doctors for this government's own mismanagement. With the OMA present here today, will the Premier stand up and apologize for a government's treatment of doctors in this province? It's a long-term care. Mr. Speaker, I'm encouraged, greatly encouraged that a number of weeks ago the OMA named a new negotiating team for themselves shortly thereafter, the government named its new negotiating team. The Premier and I expressed our commitment that the first order of business as part of negotiations of that first episode of sitting down at the table together, that episode that took place last night, Mr. Speaker, for the first time, that the first order was to agree on a process for binding interest arbitration. We're confident with this renewed spirit of collaboration, with the commitment that the Premier and I have made with the, quite frankly, the talented and committed individuals at the table, I think both Ontarians and the membership of the OMA can be satisfied that we have the right people at the table, I believe, to truly work together on this challenging but attainable task, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Speaker, back to the Premier Speaker. Where was this talk three years ago before they started the vilification of doctors? Why weren't they doing this three years ago, Mr. Speaker? Recently it was revealed that the government created their negotiating strategy through polling and not what was in the best interest of patients. Everything they did through the media was calculated to sway the public's opinion against doctors. Instead of working with the OMA to find a solution to benefit patient care, this government spent a lot of money on polling and to buy schemes to vilify the profession. Speaker, according to the financial accountability officer, this government will need to cut an additional $2.8 billion from the healthcare system. Is this Premier going to base her decisions on current polling numbers or work with the frontline healthcare professionals and make the best decisions based on patient care? Thank you. Minister? Well, Mr. Speaker, that question had so many parts to it. It's easiest. I'm going to go back to the initial question from the leader of the opposition where he referenced wait times in this province and he referenced the Kaihai report that indeed I know he cherry-picked from it. There is more work to be done, but hip replacements, 85% of Ontarians have their hip replacements completed within the medical benchmark. 6% higher than the national average. Knee replacements, 12% higher than the national average. 99% of radiation therapy in this province marks the lowest wait times for MRIs, CT scans, the shortest wait times from GP to specialist, from specialist to treatment. On average, Ontarians are receiving care more than four weeks earlier than the national average. We have some, if not all, of the shortest wait times in this country, wait times for general surgery have gone down by 13% for medical oncology down by 39%. We have done this, Mr. Speaker, because of our doctors, because of all those healthcare doctors. Thank you. You worked so hard. Can you see the please? Can you see the please? New question, the member from London West. Thank you, Speaker. My question is to the Premier. Speaker, today, OSSTF released findings from its study on violence in the workplace. Findings that echo earlier and equally shocking results from ETFO. 41% of OSSTF members reported an increase in violent incidents in their schools over the last five years. None said that violence is decreasing. Yet in this context of rising violence, four out of five OSSTF members were either unaware of or unable to access violence reporting forms. And more than half said that they are often pressured not to report a violent incident. After five years, the situation is worsening, not improving. What will it take for this government to show education workers that it is serious about protecting education worker health and safety? Thank you, Speaker. I want to thank the member opposite who is the critic for education for this very important question. Mr. Speaker, under no circumstances is violence acceptable in our schools. We want our schools to be safe and healthy places for students, for teachers, for education workers. And that's something that we want to make very, very clear. Mr. Speaker, I've met with the membership of OSSTF and I've been very, very clear with them that I recognize that we have to take this very seriously. The concerns around reporting that the member opposite asked, I am concerned about that. We want to ensure we create a culture in our schools that promotes safety and that's what we're working towards and working together with OSSTF on that. Thank you. Supplementary. Speaker, the numbers from OSSTF and ETFO are alarming and provide an urgent call to action, action that is needed across ministries including education, labour, health and children and youth services. OSSTF reports that in at least one classroom per board per day, a student is removed due to a violent outburst. The mental health needs of both students and education workers are being ignored, putting young people and education workers at risk. Yet 25 school boards are receiving 8 million dollars less funding in special education grants and school staff with specialised mental health training like psychologists and social workers are being cut. Speaker, how does the Premier plan to make schools safer when she won't even provide the basic supports that students need to succeed? Mr. Speaker, we are working with all of our partners in education. We have a provincial health and safety working group that is strengthening the culture of training and access to information to staff on violence prevention. For example, we have designated one half of a PA day. Finish please. Mr. Speaker, we have designated one half of a PA day for our elementary teachers this past year for health and safety training. We have also added new mandatory content on supporting students with special needs in the enhanced four semester teacher education program. Mr. Speaker, here is what we are investing in special education. We have increased our investments by 70 percent to 2.7 billion dollars. We have increased the number of education assistance by 6300 Mr. Speaker. We know that there is more that we need to do on this issue and that's why we are working together across all aspects of the sector including with the Minister of Labor to focus on this issue. Thank you. Thank you, Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Advanced Education and Skills Development. Our government realizes that students should be able to access our government realizes that students should be able to access higher education based on their ability to learn, not their ability to pay. We know that making post-secondary education more affordable is part of our plan to grow the economy, create jobs and build an inclusive future for Ontario. We have heard about exciting changes to OSAP this past year to make OSAP more generous for all students across the province and I have had the opportunity to share with other students in Davenport. Could the Minister give this house an update on how the OSAP changes are progressing? Mr. Speaker, and thank you to the member for Davenport for this very important question. Just this morning, the Premier, the Minister of Education and I were at Bishop Morocco Thomas Burton Catholic Secondary School to launch the new OSAP application. Starting this September over 210,000 students in this province will have free tuition. Their grants will be greater than the cost of their tuition. Post-secondary students in Ontario will have free tuition and many middle income students will have more generous student assistance than they have ever had before. The changes we have made are truly transformational. Here's our new deal with students. You work hard, you get the marks, you get accepted to post-secondary and we're going to make sure that money does not prevent you from achieving it. Thank you. Thank you Mr. Speaker and thank you to the Minister of Advanced Education and Skills Development for her answer on the great news for all students across Ontario. I've heard the Premier say many times that Ontario's advantage is our people. I know that this means ensuring that our people have the best available opportunities to access education. However I know for many aspiring students including those from my riding of Davenport and especially folks who are returning to school as adults the cost of going back to school can't be daunting, not to mention confusing. With all these grant improvements to OSAP what are we doing to make sure people know how much help they can get. Thank you Minister. Thank you Speaker and I confess to showing the OSAP calculator on Ontario.ca OSAP to anybody who will let me show them that. Speaker what it demonstrates is that there's tremendous support available for students. It means changes for everyone but especially mature student speaker. They're eligible for more grants than ever before. Let me give you an example. If you go to Ontario.ca slash OSAP this is a calculator. It will show that if you're a single parent you've got three kids, you earn $60,000 a year and you're going to college. You're eligible for grants, totaling $16,000 speaker, way more than tuition and an additional $8,700 in loans if you want them speaker. So tuition is also support for your family. For these changes to have the impact we need them to provide. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Mr. Speaker. My question is to the minister of energy. People across southwestern Ontario were shocked when the parliamentary assistant to the minister of energy commented on greenhouses moving from Ontario to Ohio saying and I quote part of what caused them to move were the high levels of poverty. I'm actually astounded Mr. Speaker by his comment because our area has always been high in humidity. Humidity that's not the deal breaker. The cost of energy is the deal breaker said Jim Domenna president and CEO of red sun farms. Speaker to the minister why is this liberal government spewing hot air greenhouse relocations and lost investment? Minister of Agriculture Minister of Agriculture for his question the sporting last Thursday I had the great opportunity to be in the wonderful riding of Durham with my colleague Mr. Anderson to announce a 19 million dollar support package for the energy in the province of Ontario. That's real support. I am very pleased to share this information with my fine colleague from Chatham Ken Essex. Ontario's green house sector is a major contributor to environmental economy. We appreciate the government of Ontario's support and recognition of the need to support the continued growth of our sector, its capacity to reach jobs, drive exports, provide a reliable supply of locally grown green house products. Thank you. Back to the minister I'm not sure which one. Support package is probably code for life support. Deniro farms in Leamington use less natural gas this past February 2016. The result? The bill more than double. Of course there is no line item on natural gas bills showing the new cap and trade cost. Kind of makes me wonder if the government lobby the OEB to bury the costs in the delivery charges. But thankfully Mr. Speaker Union Gas created an online tool which determined Deniro farms paid over $15,000 in cap and trade costs bringing a monthly bill to just over $30,000. So to the minister Mr. how can Deniro farms and other greenhouses cope after this government more than doubled their natural gas bills? Well Mr. Speaker I want to thank the honorable member for supplementary because I have some more quotes. Here's one from George We are extremely pleased with the announcement made by Minister Leal today. We are very optimistic with the prospects to continue our work with the government to determine how we can assure a vibrant and sustainable future for our province and greenhouse sector. It's better than that. Today's announcement confirms the government of Ontario's understanding of the green house contribution to the economic success job creation, productivity and world competitiveness. This budget announced by Minister Leal our Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs will help keep our quality growth in Ontario products as the first choice for North American consumers. Thank you Mr. Speaker Health care in Ontario is at a tipping point. Families and seniors need the premier to cut wait time to stop overcrowding in our hospital. But instead of listening this premier has let us all down by doing tremendous damages to the relationship with the good doctors of Ontario many of them are with us today. This morning we've learned that the premier actually spend money on and get that speaker, not one not two, ten polls to try to win her war with the doctors. Does this premier think it is right to spend public money on polling and on PR when every dollar should be going to good health care for the people of Ontario? Mr. Speaker I appreciate the question and to be honest I think the party opposite wants it kind of both ways. They constantly are asking us and reminding us to speak to us, to consult with them on the direction that our government is going and the policies we should implement Mr. Speaker. Minister and Mr. Speaker when the Ministry of Health consults with Ontarians across the province in person, online through letters, through polls we do it in a variety of ways on a myriad of issues Mr. Speaker can inform us on the best ways we can put patients first in the province they complain. This method of reaching out to Ontarians is important and happy to talk more in the supplementary. Thank you Speaker back to the premier people want shorter wait times they want faster appointment with their doctors but instead of solving the overcrowding in our hospital froze funding for four straight years instead of working with the good doctors to improve care the premier made unilateral cuts to physicians funding instead of cutting wait time this premier is watching the ER wait grow longer than they've been in a decade and instead of putting every dollars into better frontline care this premier is spending money on polling on PR to help the Liberal Party why does the premier think her job is to put the Liberal Party first and the needs of patients at the back of the line Mr. Speaker we continue to make substantial progress on wait times and I have to counter the myths that the opposition member is perpetrating a recent Fraser Institute report concluded that Ontario has the shortest wait times in the country wait times more than four weeks lower than the national average with ER our wait times for the sickest patients have been cut by 29% while volumes have in fact increased by 40% ER waits for the least sick have been cut by 15% the wait time alliance report card on wait time straight A's for Ontario by the way notes that Ontario continues to receive straight A's for wait times for cancer radiation coronary artery bypass graph Ontario by the way was the first to measure wait times in many important areas we were certainly the first when it comes to either the PC party or the NDP party that didn't bother to measure wait times at all Mr. Speaker Thank you Mr. Speaker my question is to the minister responsible for early years of childcare providing a barrier we are lucky to have a great early childhood education program at Georgian College but I have heard from many students that they are finding it hard to be motivated to pursue their passion of becoming an ECE they're concerned about the low wages in the field and worried they may not be able to pay for their student loans or even for their own families childcare needs average salaries for ECE graduates have increased from the past five years to $31,000 however they are still lower than the average salary of college graduates which is $35,000 making recruitment and retention of ECEs difficult for childcare operators as a student and graduate this may be discouraging can the minister responsible for early years of childcare tell me and my constituents what is being done to ensure students pursue their educational passions that's why the minister is responsible for early years of childcare thank you speaker and thank you to the hardworking member from Barrie for this very important question speaker we recently held public consultations across the province on childcare and heard from many early childhood educators about the challenges that they face when it comes to low wages that's why that's why we're investing in these professionals so our government is supporting a wage enhancement for eligible providers working in licensed childcare and we're ensuring there's ongoing annual funding so for 2017 the ministry is allocating more than $188 million to support the wage enhancement and the home childcare enhancement grant that means eligible staff and home childcare providers can receive a wage enhancement of up to $2 an hour plus 17.5% in benefits and eligible home childcare providers working with an agency can receive a grant of up to $20 a day Mr. Speaker these investments are part of our plan they're the right thing supplementary thank you Mr. Speaker and thank you to the minister for the answer a wage enhancement is a step in the right direction I'm glad to hear that our government is helping those who are ready to enter the workforce and who are passionate about their careers it's important that we recognize the value of those who are shaping and caring for our youngest learners and it's equally as important to make sure we retain the hardworking professionals who are already doing this crucial job they are the front lines of our child's path through education can the minister tell me more about what she is doing to help encourage early childhood educators to stay in this field thank you Mr. Speaker and I'm pleased to answer the members question speaker our government has committed to creating new licensed spaces for a hundred thousand more children over the next five years just think about that this is not only an investment in our children's future it's an investment in our economy and in Ontario families because with the addition of a hundred thousand new spaces we will see an estimated 20,000 new ECE positions created in Ontario that's 20,000 new jobs speaker through the wage enhancement this new job creation we can help create and close I should say the wage gap between registered early childhood educators working in kindergarten and childcare professionals working in licensed child care settings we will also stabilize licensed child care operators by helping them keep their ECEs and other child care program staff and we will support more employment and income security but speaker this is about laying a foundation that will put our children to success on March 7th the Minister of Agriculture spoke about Canadian agriculture literacy month and the importance of educating young people about opportunities in the agri-food sector but there was a glaring omission in 2015 I brought forward a motion growing agri-food jobs which passed with support from all parties speaker it recommended that the government add a component to the grades 9 and 10 careers and guidance curriculum on agri-food career opportunities sadly speaker the minister failed to mention what progress has been made on implementing it when he gave a speech we all remember when the premier issued the agri-food job challenge but due to inaction the Canadian agricultural human resources council is now warning that there will be a significant labour shortage by 2025 in light of the Canadian agricultural literacy month will the premier commit to seeing this important component of the curriculum implemented in time for the next school year minister of agriculture food and rural affairs minister of agriculture food thanks so much mr. speaker and I want to appreciate the question from the honourable member this morning and I know her long time commitment in improving agriculture literacy in secondary schools right across the province of Ontario with regards to the agri-food challenge the premier gave us a challenge to create 120,000 new jobs in this sector by the year 2020 I can report to you mr. Speaker and all members of the house today that we're well on our way to meeting that goal we've created 42,000 jobs today and so if you extrapolate that we will meet that target by the year 2020 but more importantly mr. Speaker every day as I'm travelling across the province of Ontario when I've been community colleges to see their graduates when I'm at the University of Guelph to see their graduates everybody's looking forward to careers in agriculture in the province of Ontario Speaker no one believes or trusts that minister back to the premier when I met with the president of the treasury board when I met with the president of the treasury board she assured me my motion would be considered just last week the minister of education proved that she can quickly jump to task when she announced the financial literacy pilot project why is the premier, the minister of agriculture, the president of the treasury board, the minister of education and the entire liberal cabinet choosing to ignore the needs of Ontario's agri-food sector there are two and a half days left in the agriculture literacy month so will the premier commit to adding agriculture to the guidance and career curriculum thank you the sector you guys have had control of it well Mr. Speaker the history from the members of that side is really quite fascinating what this government proposed what this government proposed the member from here Bruce asked the question I'm sure she wants to listen to the answer Mr. Speaker when this government proposed a number of years ago to create a $100 million risk management program to support those farmers in the province of terro that were not covered by supply management they voted against let them down again so every time we bring new innovations to this house to continue to grow a sector that generates $36 billion to Ontario's GDP Mr. Speaker thank you Mr. Speaker thank you Mr. Speaker my question is to the premier skyrocketing hydro costs have made it more expensive to take the TTC last year the TTC's hydro bill was up 13% from the previous year even though it used about the same amount of electricity since the current premier assumed office ago the TTC's hydro rates have gone up by over 40% the premier said she wants to fix this quote unquote mistake but the TTC will not see the 25% in hydro bill reductions that she's promising in ads ads by the way paid for with public dollars why did the premier exclude the TTC from her hydro plan Mr. Vanity thank you Mr. Speaker and I want to thank the honourable member for the question Mr. Speaker when it relates to Ontario's fair hydro plan the first thing I think it's important for me to say about the TTC is that every rider on the TTC will be getting that 25% reduction Mr. Speaker and on top of that every single individual in Ontario's 444 municipalities will benefit from Ontario's fair hydro plan but when it comes to the city of Toronto the TTC is part of Mr. Speaker they're going to see a 2 to 4% reduction in their electricity bills Mr. Speaker that's a modest reduction I know Mr. Speaker but there are also many other things that we do for municipalities and we have many other programs that actually also help municipalities manage their energy costs Mr. Speaker for example the Ontario municipal energy plan program provides funding to municipalities to help them plan for more efficient energy we also helped with $92 million from the green investment fund Mr. Speaker to help with other energy supplementary thank you again back to the premier Mr. Speaker I repeat the TTC's hydro rates have increased by more than 40% since the premier assumed office four years ago the premier's hydro plan will make bankers rich but it won't do anything to rain costs of privatized hydro which is making everything more expensive the premier's plan won't lower the TTC's hydro bills by 25% or even 17% why is the premier spending public dollars to promote a hydro scheme that makes bankers rich while allowing the TTC's hydro rates to keep rising out of control driving up fares and making life more expensive for transit riders minister of transportation for transportation I thank the member opposite for her questions today and I can understand from the tail end of the second question at the root of what she's asking about it relates speaker of course to making sure the transit in Toronto and transit right around the province of Ontario is not only there but that it's accessible and affordable and the city of Toronto knows I've had the opportunity to say this repeatedly in this house and elsewhere there is no government in Ontario history that has done more to support public transit in the city of Toronto and in the other 98 communities across Ontario that have transit then this government under the leadership of our premier speaker that member knows just a number of weeks ago we announced that we'd be doubling the provincial gas tax program over the next four years for a government with more than今 to all of the communities that have transit systems will keep building and getting it right thanks Mr Speaker my question is to the minister of seniors affairs minister I want to again congratulate you on becoming minister for Ontario's first ever ministry of senior leadership towards care for seniors. Minister, I know that you have been very busy in your new portfolio and you have travelled all across the province, including visiting Christine McMillan and the Oasis Group in my riding of Kingston and the Islands. Yesterday, as part of Bill 87, the Seniors Act of Living Centre Act was introduced in the House. If passed, this act will be a stronger, more flexible legislation than the current Elderly Person Centre Act. This is great news for the over 260 existing centres that provide services to over 100,000 seniors. These are important and timely changes. And I'm hoping that the Minister can share more information. Thank you, Speaker. And I want to thank the member from Kingston and the Islands for the important question. Mr Speaker, our proposed Seniors Active Living Centre Act was developed in recognition of the changing nature of demographics in Ontario. Mr Speaker, over the next 25 years, the Seniors population in Ontario is projected to double to 4 million people, and it's important that people are able to age in our province in a way that allows them to be active, healthy, safe and socially engaged. And Elderly Person Centres play an important role in this. This act, Mr Speaker, aims to modernize the framework for Elderly Person Centre, so they reflect the realities of today's seniors better. One very symbolic change, Mr Speaker, is that all of our demand, we are renaming the Elderly Person Centres to Seniors Active Living Centre. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Speaker. And I want to thank the Minister of Seniors Affairs for her answer. This sounds like great legislation that I'm sure that all members in this House will get behind. I have no doubt that the Seniors Association of Kingston Region in my riding will be pleased with the changes. With 675 dedicated volunteers, there's a spectacular number of dedicated community partners caring for our community seniors in Kingston and the Islands, and I'd like to extend my warmest thanks to their continued effort and passion. But Minister, I would have to ask, how did you determine what changes you would want to make to the current legislation? The EPCs serve people of different backgrounds, of different levels of health, skills and education, of differing interests, and speaking different languages. They also have a large range of program flexibility. Seeing how this program affects seniors across the province, from Wawa to Windsor, our city and rural community, how did you strike about it? Minister? Speaker, and I again want to thank the member from Kingston and the Islands for her great question. Her question was, how did we determine what changes to make to the Seniors Active Living Act? And Mr Speaker, the answer is very simple. We went to the seniors of Ontario through surveys, consultations and stakeholder input. We were able to hear from almost 80% of the elderly person's centers soon to be renamed Seniors Active Living Centers and got a full picture on how to move forward with improving the program and the enabling legislation. Some of the proposed changes include empowering local communities, opening the program to potential future partnerships and reducing the administrative burden. Thank you, Mr Speaker. Thank you. Thank you, Mr Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Health. Speaker, today's Queen's Park has been again visited by disease sufferers who continue to wait for provincial approval of a life-altering treatment that's already been given the go-ahead by Health Canada. Speaker, sufferers of polycystic kidney disease, PKD, deal with the painful effects of tumors that can swallow impacted kidneys up to the sides of a football. Last year, Health Canada approved the first-ever PKD treatment and yet Ontario has refused to cover this treatment under the public drug plan. Speaker members of the PKD Foundation are meeting with the Minister's office today and some are here, of course, in the gallery. Will the Minister tell these patients why he's not covering the treatment that they so desperately deserve? Thank you. Thank you, Minister of Health. Thank you. Thank you, Mr Speaker. I appreciate the question and I welcome those who are here today to speak about polycystic kidney disease, which is indeed unfortunately prevalent, all too prevalent, but also very challenging condition for anyone to have. I think the member opposite should know by now, Mr Speaker, that there's a process in place that the Health Canada approval for a drug generally for a specific indication is only the first and one step in a multi-step process. At that time, once it's approved by Health Canada, there's a requirement that it be examined for evidence of its effectiveness, its efficacy, and that historically used to be done separately by each province and territory. Now we've created a process in fact that's done nationally one time and that's the process that we're applying here to review the evidence after Health Canada's approval to establish its efficacy. Supplementary. Yes, Speaker. We understand that this treatment is not for every patient. However, PKD sufferers are here today with doctors who have outlined exactly those that would benefit and yet continue to wait for this important treatment. We've seen this story before. Rare disease sufferers continue to wait for action from the minister's so-called working group that he used to shoot down our call for a rare disease select committee. While our committee would have been completed its work by now, we still await word of the actual work from the minister's working group even though we hear the report is in fact sitting on your desk. Rare disease patients are tired of waiting and PKD patients need answers. Mr. Speaker, will the minister commit today to approve treatment for those PKD patients that will benefit from this important treatment and table the report his working group has completed? Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I assume it's Gennark that the member opposite is referring to. He's nodding his head. So it was reviewed by that national process, the common drug review. In fact, the common drug review recommended that Gennark not be listed for the treatment of polycystic kidney disease because it was not shown to definitively improve relevant outcomes and patients with that disease. Additionally, the common drug review noted a number of safety concerns associated with the drug including liver injury, low sodium increases in uric acid and gout, polyurea, thirst and skin cancers. So it's important, Mr. Speaker, first of all, we take the politics out of this. We leave it to the clinical experts, the frontline doctors, the scientists, the academics to review the evidence. They've invited the manufacturer, in fact, to come forward if they have additional evidence, but in the spirit of collaboration and transparency, I've identified specifically why that negative recommendation to date has been. Thank you. We have a preferred vote on the motion of second reading of Bill 111 in act to authorize the expenditure of certain amounts for the fiscal year ending March 31st, 2017.

Returning to the show is Dr. Yvon Moroshnikov. Dr. Moroshnikov is a guest researcher at the University of Oslo, where he participates in the project Story, Worlds and Transition, Coptic Apocrypha in changing contexts in the Byzantine and early Islamic periods. His research interests include Coptic philology and dialectology, as well as early Christian studies. He is the author of the Gospel of Thomas in Plato, which is an open resource available on Brill, and has published widely in the field of Coptic Apocrypha literature. So Yvon, welcome back to the show. Hi, glad to be back. I really enjoyed our previous talk and I'm really looking forward to this. Before we get into the Coptic Apocrypha texts themselves, could you elaborate further on what we mean by New Testament Apocrypha? Talking about Apocrypha and specifically New Testament Apocrypha, the definition is always a problem. If you do some research, you'll find a bunch of definitions. So my colleague, Professor Hugo Lukauk, in the Oslo project, they have their own definition. So they define Apocrypha as texts and traditions that expand or develop on the biblical story world. So the idea is that there is a biblical story world, which is different from the story world of, let's say, patristic literature or martyrdom literature. And this story world is somehow fixed because we have a canon and there is a sort of like fan fiction kind of addendum to this corpus, which is the Apocrypha corpus, which tries to expand our knowledge about this so-called biblical story world. We can debate about definitions forever. I personally don't really find this very helpful. I think this definition is good enough. The only possible commentary that it requires is that the word Apocrypha itself, it's a Greek word. It's important to understand that the people who wrote Apocrypha, most of them, probably would disagree with us labelling these texts Apocrypha, because in Egypt, for example, but surely not only in Egypt, at a rather early stage, the word Apocrypha meaning hidden in Greek became associated with some clandestine activity. So Apocrypha texts are those composed by heretics, by people who are outside of the great church, by the enemies of this church. So when we read the most important Coptic writer, Shinuta, Shinuta would always use these words basically in the same sentence, heresy and Apocrypha. But surprisingly, this doesn't mean that this sort of literature did not really prosper in Shinuta's time or in later times. In fact, the monastery, which was founded by Shinuta, the so-called white monastery, is where most of our Apocrypha texts come from. Just the word itself is probably not, as I said, not what they themselves would call it. So they would rather talk about some sort of embellishments, some beautiful additions that by no means problematize the orthodoxy. There is, in fact, this very famous passage, which all my colleagues know and love. It's in this author called Sude Evodius of Rome, which is a completely fictional character, allegedly a bishop of Rome. He never existed really. And this made up character actually, you know, is credited with several works. And one of them is a homily on the Passion of Christ. And it's a very interesting text, apocryphal text, full of remarkable, fantastic details, really fun read. And at some point, the author basically takes the mask off and admits to not actually being Evodius, to being somebody else. And he says, well, surely nobody would judge us for adding this embellishments, this beautiful elements to the Gospel story. Surely we will only be thanked for making the Gospel story even more glorious than it is. That's an important distinction, right? And this is not to say that we don't have texts that actually call themselves apocryphal. So for instance, the Gospel of Thomas is an important exception because it begins with this statement that, you know, these are the secret words that Jesus spoke. And in the Greek text, it actually uses the word apocryphus. And then we have, of course, the text known as the apocryphal of John, where the word apocryphal is actually in the title. So surely not for everybody, this word was non kosher. But like for a past corpus of texts, this is probably not how they would self define how they would see themselves. But again, as I said, I don't think this is really important. We make our own definitions. And we simply, if they help us understand what we're dealing with, they're fine. The one that I gave you, the one of the Oslo team, I think it's good enough. Today, we're talking about some texts that not only are apocryphal, but they're specifically Coptic apocryph. For those in the audience who are unaware, what exactly is the Coptic language? The Coptic language is defined as the last stage in the history of the Egyptian language. So it's basically the same language as the one that's used in the book of the dead. But, you know, languages evolve. So for instance, we can also say that French is basically the same language as Latin. But of course, there is a huge difference. So over the course of its development, the Coptic language, it acquired certain distinct features, which we don't find in the earlier varieties of Egyptian. One thing that immediately is easily recognizable is that Coptic is written down with an alphabetic script. So at some point, somebody realized that it's easier to represent this language using the letters of the Greek alphabet, plus the additional characters from, you know, the earlier stages of the Egyptian. There is a lot of things that we still don't know about all this. Like, for instance, it has been long suggested that the idea to use the Greek script for this, it was an idea invented by Christian missionaries. But in fact, there is research that shows that there are already pre-Christian attempts to write down Egyptian using the Greek alphabet. So this sort of practice has existed prior to the advent of Christian missionaries. There is another argument which I like, which I think is a very strong one, is that in many regional traditions, we have these same figures credited with the discovery of the script. So for instance, we have Mesrop Meshtots in Armenia. We have Ulfela for the Gothic script. We have Cyril and Methodius for the Church Slavonic script. But the Coptic script does not actually have a founding father, which may mean that it's actually not a Christian invention, that it actually is something that was invented, as I said, prior to the advent of Christian missionaries. Unfortunately, we don't have any evidence. But in any case, Coptic is the last stage, as I said, of the Egyptian language. It existed as a multitude of different dialects. So for the first time in the history of Egyptian, the language is written down in a way that allows you to see the vowels. And immediately we can see that words were vocalized differently in different areas of Egypt. And this dialects coexisted in the first millennium. The most influential dialect was the dialect of the south, which is known as the Sahidic dialect from the Arabic word Said, which means south. And eventually, the dominant role was transferred to the dialect of the north, which is known as the Buhari dialect. And this is the dialect that is still used in the Coptic liturgy. So today, you go to a Coptic church in Egypt, in the United States, and some part of the service will be in this dialect of Coptic. But at some point in the Middle Ages, the language sadly became extinct. So at some point, people switched to Arabic. So today, Coptic is a dead language, if indeed there is such a thing as a dead language, which is of course a problem for us, because, you know, people who study manuscripts, we would really love to have some help from a native speaker who could explain to us what this means or, you know, how this phrase works. Unfortunately, we cannot do it. So we all need to rely on manuscripts to explain manuscripts. This is also something that makes it a lot of fun, this kind of research. It's very important just to kind of understand the language in general and, you know, what the possibilities it was used for. This is Egyptian, Demotic, late stage language being transliterated through Greek alphabets and lots of Greek loanwords. So this is reflective, I think, of a very cosmopolitan world. These people are from all over the empire. And this is obviously a remnant of what happened after the conquest of Alexander, you know, the different generals who took over and created what we call the Hellenistic Empire into the Roman Empire. You still have native Demotic speakers and the people up in the higher echelons are Greek speakers, but the normal everyday person is probably native Egyptians. So it's kind of this melding of cultures and there's this clash. And like you mentioned, there are different dialects as well. And this makes things very complicated. When you start to learn Coptic, I think the text that I have by Bentley Leiden is the Cetic Coptic. But as you say, there are tons of different dialects. And those of you who are familiar in Gnostic studies will know that the Naqmadi texts were composed in Coptic. And not only that, but there's also a question of, you know, like Dr. Marosh Naka was saying, that there are different dialects reflected within those texts themselves as well. What are our sources of these Coptic apocryphal texts? You mentioned Shinute, where are we pulling these texts from? As you probably know, the situation with the Coptic manuscript tradition is extremely complicated. For instance, one of the main or maybe the most important source of our manuscript is the so-called White Monastery. And this is where apparently around a thousand codices on parchment, really expensive codices were once housed. But unfortunately, today, we don't have a single complete codex from this repository. So all the manuscripts are in fragments, which means that sometimes we have a choir that is like a certain block of parchment leaves pressed together. Sometimes we have individual leaves. And sometimes we have tiny fragments, which may or may not join other fragments. And all these fragments are housed at different libraries across the world. So we have the largest collection in Paris, in the National Library of France in Paris. There is a large collection in London at the British Library. There is stuff in Moscow, in New York, in Cairo. So basically the work that scholars of Coptic manuscripts do is detective work. You try to track down pieces or fragments of the same codex of the same manuscript. And then from this almost always partially preserved text, you try to squeeze some information. And this would eventually yield some knowledge about this literature. So we have this fragmentary evidence in Coptic. And then we have translations, because as I said, the Coptic Church eventually started using Arabic. And there was a great movement for translating Coptic text into the Arabic language. And today, we have many texts that survive only in fragments in Coptic, but survive completely in Arabic. And then after that, eventually the Ethiopian Church received this tradition and then texts that were translated into Arabic were subsequently translated into ancient Ethiopic. So we have this thing called Coptic Arabic Ethiopic, a literary tradition, literary trajectory. And sometimes it's only with the help of this later translations that we can kind of try and reconstruct the situation that existed in the first millennia, which is reflected in this fragmentary manuscripts. Coptic apocryphal literature is manifold. We have texts of various genres. The people here in Oslo are especially interested in this genre called the apostolic memoirs. So texts that have usually some sort of a framework, some sort of discovery story. So they are ascribed to certain champions of the Orthodox faith from the glorious past of the Neophysite Church. And these church fathers are described to come, say to Jerusalem, visit library or house, and then to discover a small book, which would then contain some amazing story about Jesus, about crucifixion or about some events that happened before the creation of mankind, or when angels were battling with each other, when Satan was thrown away from the sky. My colleague of mine, Florian Graz, here in Oslo is writing a dissertation about this topic. It's an extremely interesting thing of this, of what we know about this so far. But as I said, there are many other genres. So I specifically work on apocryphal acts. So on various stories that deal with the disciples of Jesus and how they travel across the known universe and preach the gospel and eventually die as martyrs. Because according to the Coptic tradition, all apostles, with the exception of John, died as martyrs. You mentioned before the kind of fanfiction aspect of apocryphal literature. What would be some of the reasons to compose these texts? Would it be primarily biographical, liturgical, if you could just kind of touch upon that? There are several reasons. And definitely liturgical is, liturgy is the keyword here. Many of the texts that we deal with contain dates. So for instance, as I mentioned, there are stories about the martyrdoms, how apostles die as martyrs, and why these stories are important. Because there's always a date for the death of the apostle. And this is the day on which a certain celebration takes place. So the idea is that there is this annual liturgical circle and their commemoration dates. And on each particular date, we have a certain set of saints or events that are to be celebrated. Therefore, we need a text or corpus of texts that should be used liturgically during this festival. Now, unfortunately, we don't really know much about how this Coptic text war performed. Like for instance, we know that today Coptic monks read a certain set of texts during their meals, right? Like a collective of monks gather together in a refectory and one of them stands in front of them and reads out certain pious literature so that they eat and not forget about God and everything. But we don't really know when this practice emerged. And a colleague of mine at the University of Bergen here in Norway actually is writing a dissertation about this and related topics. And she, as far as I know, wasn't able to find any evidence more ancient than 19th century for this sort of practice. This doesn't mean that it didn't exist, but we don't have any evidence. So as I said, we don't really know exactly how this text war performed. Another of my colleagues, Sam Cook here in Oslo, he is writing a book about the monastery of Saint Macarius in the delta and the Buhari manuscripts from this monastery, also late 1st millennium. And in those manuscripts, we sometimes have marginal notes that say something like, you know, don't read this, this is false or skip this read from here. So we know that sometimes the texts were apparently too long to be performed. So they needed to be bridged or there was something problematic with this text. And so this part should be skipped. But unfortunately, as I said, there's still a lot that we don't know. But basically, the point is that somehow this apocryphal texts were necessary for the liturgical cycle and for liturgical performance during the feast days. So this is one reason. But then of course, the other reason is, I would say curiosity. We read the New Testament and there are many parts, many storylines that are not as detailed as we would want, right? We don't know much about the childhood of Jesus. And that's why we have all this infancy gospels. We don't know much about the fates of the apostles, except for Apostle Paul, who is the main protagonist of the canonical acts of the apostles. So I mean, I think this is perfectly understandable, right? So you have this great heroes of faith and you know surprisingly little about them. So it makes sense to have certain interest in literature that would fill these gaps. I'm talking specifically about the apocryphal acts of the apostles and specifically about the Coptic acts of the apostles or texts that come from Egypt. One thing that I believe we can know for certain now is that one of the main sources of these stories, and those are fantastical stories, like bombastic stories full of miracles, resurrections, completely incredible events. One of the main sources for these stories were the so-called Byzantine apostolic lists. So this is a genre of literature that is still not very well researched. It's very short texts, two or three pages that basically give you a list of the apostles and the disciples of the apostles and some two or three sentences, main facts of their biographies. Like, you know, Apostle Philip, he preached in the country of Phrygia, and then he died a martyr's death in the city of Hierapolis, right? That's it. That's just two sentences. There are also texts that list like the relatives, whether or not an apostle had children or wives or whether or not they had a mundane profession, a vocation, like what they did before they actually started their religious careers. So these texts apparently started to pop up quite early, and when you study Coptic Apocryphal Acts, you very soon realize that the main point is to provide some detail, some story to this very short sentences we find in these apostolic lists. So for instance, as I said, Philip is said to have preached in Phrygia. So now we have this text, relatively long text, which is all dedicated to this, how Philip was casting lots with all the other apostles, how Phrygia was allotted to him, how he was scared to go because he was not confident enough, and how Peter said that he would join him to give him some support and how they travel there, whom they encounter in the way, what they find when they arrive, and so forth. So ultimately, the idea is that there is this kind of skeleton provided by the lists, and there was apparently some Coptic writer who thought that this is great stuff. I should just add details to this story, add some flesh to this skeleton. So yes, the second reason for the composition of this text is definitely curiosity and just general kind of interest in what happened to these great heroes of the past. But I'm sure there are other reasons too. I guess it all depends on each particular text and in-depth analysis of every single text would probably provide more kind of reasons. But I think these two are key, if we talk about this whole corpus in general. For me, just before we move on, when you were discussing the liturgical and the curiosity aspects, my personal favorite figure of apocryphal fan fiction that comes from basically one sentence in the canonical text is the Good Bandit, right? You have all these amazing, insane stories about how this guy helped Jesus and Mary and his dad when they were crossly good to Egypt. I was so amazed by this. I think just an example from pop culture, for those of you who are comic book fans out there, think of a character who just even after 80 years, like Batman, Batman appears in a 10-page story, a 1939 throwaway story. Who knows if he'll be back again. And he amasses what we could term a canon over the years. And people who are later the kind of scribes or the authors who are creating these stories and creating the art are curious about like little throwaway lines or sentences or scenes or panels in these stories. And they create entire mini series or tech about it. So kind of think of it that way. That's how I do at least. So let's get into the text themselves, Yvonne. You've worked extensively on these apocryphal acts. So tell us more about your research. So these two texts are, I think, really nice examples of this sort of literature. So I think they both were composed originally in Coptic. They both draw inspiration from this Byzantine apostolic lists. And I would say from other Byzantine texts, like there is this extremely popular early apocryphal text known as the Acts of Andrew and Matthias in the City of the Cannibals, which was translated into all possible languages and was extremely popular across the Christian world in the first millennium. And this text clearly made a significant impact on Coptic apocryphal acts. And I mean, for everybody listening, I would strongly recommend this as some sort of an introduction to this sort of literature, because it's in a sense really good literary work full of very nice details with a very thought through structure. So basically the Acts of Andrew and Matthias describe how Andrew and Matthias get separated. At some point, the two apostles get separated and Matthias goes to the City of the Cannibals, which is, we don't know where it is. It's completely a fairy tale. Like there are no real geography connected to this. Yeah, but they had cannibals there. So that's all we need to know. Yeah, it's a city, because we do have this sort of stuff in antique geography, that there are Egyptians, there are Nubians, Indians, whatever. And then further, if you keep going in that direction, then you'll find dog people and cannibal people and self-eating people, like all sorts of weird creatures. Yeah, not to our boy Herodotus. Yeah, so there's this City of the Cannibals, and the cannibals are really evil. And they capture Matthias and they want to eat him. But, of course, Matthias prays to God and God saves him and releases him from prison. And then Andrew comes and together they perform all sorts of miracles and commit a little genocide of the cannibals. So kill the most evil ones, then they rest convert. So it's a fantastic story, which was composed in Greek and was very soon translated into Coptic. And I think it kind of provided a modal for many of these later texts that were composed in Coptic initial. So the Acts of Andrew and Philemon is basically, well, either a prequel or a sequel. It's not entirely clear, but it's a text that is very clearly aware of this Acts in the City of the Cannibals and is constantly alluding to various events described in this text. So the main characters here are Andrew, which is one of the most popular apostles in Egypt, and Philemon. Now, we don't really know who this guy is. He is described as a little boy, a child, who has a beautiful voice, a voice that has this miraculous power so he can basically make even the most evil. The person who is, you know, dedicated pagan, this voice can make them immediately repent and convert to Christianity. What I argue in my work is that in all likelihood, this Philemon is to be identified with this little boy mentioned in the Gospel of John. So there is this episode about the multiplication of a fish and bread. In the Gospel of John, Andrew finds a boy, and this boy brings the, you know, two fishes and a bread, and then Jesus multiplies this stuff. And that's all. It's just like one verse in the Gospel mentioned in a boy and some connection to Andrew. So apparently this was enough. And in later texts, in Coptic texts, we find some sort of a paraphrase of this story. And in this paraphrase, which is part of a work ascribed to Cyril of Jerusalem. So in this paraphrase, the boy is explicitly called Philemon. And it is explicitly said that he has this sweet voice. So in all likelihood, this is the same boy. And the idea would be that after the miracle, the boy decided to go along. So he went with the apostles, with Andrew specifically, and became Andrew's disciple. And then together Andrew and Philemon went to Asia Minor to preach the Gospels. So yeah, this is indeed like one of these very typical features of this literature, right? That even an unnamed character from the Bible, which is mentioned in a single verse, all of a sudden gets his own story and his own kind of narrative. Indeed, the story is pretty exciting. As I said, it's happening in Asia Minor. It has two parts. The first part is about the conversion of people in the city of Lidda. And the second part is apparently somewhere in Lycaonia. The second part is much longer. It begins with two boys whom Satan makes fight each other. And then one of the boys dies. And the father of the boy that apparently killed the other boy is accused of crime. And he runs to Andrew and asks Andrew to intervene and instead Andrew sends Philemon. So this little boy comes to the rescue of another boy who killed the third boy. Then Philemon is captured. He is being tortured and he summons birds. And this is my favorite part of this story. So there is this kind of a beauty contest for the birds. And the first bird to come is a sparrow. And a sparrow volunteers to like do whatever Philemon says and to send the message. But apparently Philemon does not trust sparrows because they're too sexually active. And Philemon is afraid that if this male sparrow sees a female sparrow he would immediately forget all about his mission and would just procreate. Which is again something that you find in antiquity a lot. There is this whole idea that there are animals who are somehow moral and have certain ethical qualities. And then there are animals who have this excessive sexual behavior and therefore should not be for imitated. So apparently according to this text sparrows are like this. Then there is a crow. And again Philemon is not happy. Because apparently in the days of Noah a crow did not do what it was supposed to do. Did not come back with the message. And then finally there is a dove. A female dove. And the dove is good enough for the task. So then the dove comes and addresses a multitude of people who are mourning the death of the child. And then there is another nice detail because the dove of course can speak. And everybody is amazed and it says that well this is exactly the language that animals and people spoke before the transgression. This is again something that we do find in Byzantine literature and in late antique literature that before transgression before the fall Adam and Eve could speak animal language and all the animals spoke the same language. And this was somehow an ability that people lost after the fall. So the story goes on and on. And the boy is resurrected and everybody is happy. But Satan goes on and tries to still intervene with what's happening. So he captures he goes inside the wife of the governor. And the wife kills her own son. So this is like yet another child in the story. And the apostles come to see what happened. And when they see the woman they see also a small well in the text it says an Ethiopian. So an Ethiopian held by the woman by his heir and trying to escape and not capable to escape. So it turns out that this is one of the demons sent by sacred. And the demon successfully entered the woman and made her kill her child. But then somehow miraculously the woman captured the demon. And the demon is in the Coptic text is portrayed as an Ethiopian because this was apparently a very common thing in this late antique tradition to in Egypt specifically to portray demons as either black or Ethiopian. David Brachy actually in his work thinks that this motif is also connected to excessive sexuality which often is the case although here it's probably not. And then there is this whole discussion between the demon and Andrew. And finally the demon is cast into hell and the boy again is resurrected and everybody's happy. The end. So this is kind of a very typical story for this Coptic apocryphal literature. So it's as I said it's full of miracles. It's full of specifically of resurrections sometimes. And this is also a specifically Coptic feature. There is dismemberment like not only a child is murdered but the child is also cut into pieces. And then of course the apostles come and piece those bodies together and they bring them back to life and everybody's happy. These stories clearly are based on certain Byzantine traditions or the pre-existing Byzantine traditions but they also have a lot of kind of local flavor. So as I said like certain details and certain vocabulary he immediately marks this text as specifically coming from Coptic Egypt. The stories are extremely fun. If you want to learn more you will definitely find more stuff like this in the volumes edited by Tony Burke. A lot of the motifs you just mentioned for this text are found in lots and lots of these other apocryphal texts. Just getting on the dismemberment part. Like I know there's like so many insane traditions about the head of John the Baptist. This thing just like levitates goes around and preaches years after he was like beheaded. I love all these malleable stories. They were just talking about the talking dove. I have to go back and read this more because if there's one thing you know I love the acts of Peter and Paul. I love that talking baby. I love that talking dog. The epic rap battles between Simon of Samaria and Peter. All these fantastic tales. When I was talking to Dr. Burke about New Testament apocrypha I really likened these texts and not just the apocryphal acts but also the monastic bioe things like that. It's almost like the Marvel comics. Think of how rich and kaleidoscopic it would have been. You don't know anything about Jesus? Well you have the infancy gospel of Thomas where he turns clay pigeons into real pigeons or whatever and then he kills his teachers and kids who bummed into him on the school bus. You know so it's just all these rich traditions. One of the reasons I wanted to talk about this aspect of your research actually came from our first discussion when we were talking about gospel of Thomas because just the nature of gospel of Thomas just how the texts were constructed in the Coptic versus the Greek sources and these sayings, these logia, right? It's kind of similar to how malleable some of these traditions in these apocryphal acts are. You mentioned that you'll find a narrative situation in one text that will be appropriated to another text. So just getting into how adaptable these things are just touch upon how they could be adapted to different scenarios depending on the motivations of the writer and what the text is actually going to be used for whether it be liturgical, instructive, etc. That's very true that these traditions and these texts they were basically like clay and people could make different forms, different figures from them and this was not in any way considered to be like disrespectful of the tradition which is amazing. As far as I know and this is not just my opinion the Coptic literature can be divided into two main corpora. So there is one corpus of texts that have the highest possible reputation like the Bible or the works of Shinuta or the works of some other church fathers and these texts were not meant to be messed around like they were supposed to be transmitted in the form they are. Although even that does not always hold like sometimes we do find that even in the biblical texts there are some remarkable changes but generally speaking this kind of textual corpus was more or less stable when it comes to textual transmission and then there is this other literature which was very fluid and prone to a constant change and sometimes we cannot really know why people would change certain detail but clearly this was not a problem for them this was something that was done again and again. To give you an example this text that I translated for Tony Berg's volume The Preaching of Philip there is this amazing episode when Philip and Peter come to Frigia which is apparently a city rather than a country and there is a city wall and a gate and there is a pillar on top of the gate and this probably reflects some actual architectural tradition of the time so the apostles pray and the gate with the tower somehow becomes alive-ish and they bend down so that the top of the pillar touches the earth so that then this person who is not named in the text but who accompanies the apostles can get on top of the pillar after which the pillar again becomes erect and from on top of this pillar this unnamed man preaches to the entire city invites everybody to repent and to convert to Christianity so very interesting a very original story what is interesting is that there is this one manuscript of the Acts of Andrew and Philemon which has an additional act which has a story that we don't find in any other manuscript of this text in which has the very same episode but here instead of Peter and Philip we have Andrew and Philemon and instead of unnamed man we have a dog so in this version of the story Andrew and Philemon pray to God the pillar bends down and then the dog goes on top of the pillar and the dog preaches to the people of the city and asks them to repent so very clearly there is a literary connection here that we're very clearly somebody read the story in the preaching of Philip and decided to make this story about Andrew and Philemon and why is that? to be honest I don't know I have a theory which might be true it might not be true the theory goes like this in the beginning of the narrative about Andrew and Philemon for some reason we are told that the name of the father of Philemon was Philip and that's all that doesn't say anything else so is it possible that somebody thought that well this Philip must be Philip the apostle and if Philemon is the son of Philip then why wouldn't he perform the same miracle that his father performed you know like father like son and this kind of creates some sort of like a mirror image so that you know the Philemon allegedly the son of Philip repeats what his father did in in some other area I'm not kind of married to this suggestion and it's real difficult to say whether this was the reason but I think this is plausible because in the Coptic tradition we do find this tendency not only to name the unnamed people like we know that the boy from the Gospel of John is Philemon but also to make them all somehow related to each other and again in many texts we discover that they're basically this like dynasties of saints one text that I've explored in the past is the so-called Forth Book of the Maccabees the text that is in the Greek Bible and in this text we have a priest named Eleazar and we have a woman and her seven sons and they all die as martyrs and nowhere in the Greek text does it say that they're in any way related to each other in the Coptic tradition they are a family so the priest Eleazar is the husband of the woman and the father of their seven sons and this is actually in the Coptic text of the Forth Book of the Maccabees so there's this tendency to make everybody related which you also find in various martyrdom narratives which also can be kind of connected with each other by means of genealogy so I would very tentatively suspect that maybe something like this happens here so this is one example of this sort of textual fluidity when a story that is assigned to one apostle becomes assigned to somebody else and of course there are many other examples like sometimes the genre is changed right so for instance we have this text known as the martyrdom of Matthew it begins with Matthew you know coming to a certain place to preach and then very soon dying a martyr and then in some codex a scribe was tasked with copying only texts that contain the apostolic preachings so texts that tell the story that precedes the martyrdom so what did he do he added a sort of kind of long preface telling about how all the apostles gathered together and received their allotted territories and then he removed the part where Matthew actually dies so the same story like the text that was initially a martyrdom was by this kind of very rude procedure simply converted to preaching which doesn't end with martyrdom ends with triumph so this sort of attitude towards texts as something that can be transformed you know in accordance to the needs of the audience the needs of the scribe the needs of the donor who actually paid for the production of the codex this is very typical for this sort of literature and that's why it's so interesting to compare texts with each other because sometimes you can find a very small detail that is different and then you just start thinking about like why would somebody want to change that for instance again in the preaching of Philip we have this man preaching from on top of the pillar and there is a thunderstorm and everybody is terrified and there are lightning bolts and everybody is trying to hide and then in one manuscript it says that and many men and women you know died this day then the other manuscript instead says like many people were terrified and many pregnant women lost their children like lost the fruit of their wounds so why this change so one possibility is that somebody was reading this narrative and felt that well maybe that's too much like you know the apostles come to a city and just starting killing people without giving them a chance to actually repent and so instead of just saying that many people died that day it changed it to like you know many unborn fetuses died that day and somehow this is not as horrible because you know this is just something that happens a lot in the you know pre-modern society that you know pregnant women lose their children this is kind of something that is not as horrifying as it is today so this sort of details they are endless I'm actually planning to produce a study an article about this phenomenon of textual fluidity in Coptic Apogryphal acts to produce some sort of a catalog of things that can happen and it's actually I think easy to look into this stuff if you again consult this volumes by Tony Burke because Tony is very fond of basically synoptic charts and tables and comparative tools so very often when you have a text in volume not necessarily Coptic text there would be several columns which allow you to compare different versions of the text and then you can play with it and you can think why would a text be performed differently in different manuscripts so that's some exercise that I encourage everybody to do I think that's a lot of fun this question in general was something I was talking to Dr. Burke about as well it's kind of tied in with the value judgments that we have when we say something is apocryphal versus something is canonical we lose sight of the fact this has been going on as long as these texts have been around even as far back as the composition of the Illidan Odyssey in 7th century BCE is reacting against these shared materials and traditions and creating almost like the first post-modern text you find the same thing in the New Testament canonical gospels so to speak you have Mark, Matthew, Luke and then you have John and you think of John almost as the oh brother were thou of the traditional texts in those three synoptics John is creating kind of his own understanding correcting things that he sees kind of maybe deficient in those texts and I think a lot of the problem with people being so reticent to kind of look at these texts on their own terms is that we have those value judgments when we say these words like oh this is apocryphal or non-canonical therefore it's not true whereas something that's in the canon we have modern conceptions of what those are versus maybe in the ancient world just as you've been saying the whole time like these texts were considered fluid they were considered adaptable to different situations depending on the needs of the audience and the writer why do you think these optic apocryphal acts have been so neglected and steady up until recently there are two reasons first is that we have the Nakama De Library and for decades people learned Coptic only to read the text from Nakama De which is understandable because these texts are amazing and they pose a lot of questions and they do require a certain training to work with them so I know that for several times the Congress of Coptic Studies which is like the main event in our field which happens only once in four years would be dedicated entirely to Nakama De stuff because you know why would you do Coptic studies if you don't work on Nakama De this is like the most brilliant corpus of texts there is so everything else was kind of considered to be late uninteresting orthodox boring liturgical whatever which is of course not true this stuff is exciting and also if you look at it you wouldn't see any Chinese wall between the so-called Gnostic texts the Nakama De texts you know Pistis Sophia and Slater Apocryphal texts for instance there is one thing that is immediately striking and that's how both the Scarper are indebted to magic so you know people who read Nakama De texts they very soon would find the so-called Vokis Magikai Nomina Barbara various sequences of meaningless words that in the manuscript would be marked with the Suprilean years indicating that they have certain power that these are words that can make things happen right and when we look into this later Coptic Apocrypha when we even look into texts that narrate the story of Jesus we find very similar stuff for instance my colleague Roxanne Belanger-Serazin who is also working here at the University of Oslo she is an expert in magic she drew my attention to this manuscript of the Acts of Pilate which is about the last day of Jesus Christ and in this text in one of the manuscripts which comes from the White Monastery Jesus on the Cross basically utters just a long sequence of this Nomina Barbara of this Vokis Magikai in this manuscript the words are marked with the Suprilean years clearly resembling what in magical papyri would be magical words of power and this is a manuscript produced in the White Monastery in the same monastery that was producing the manuscripts of Shinuta so in the stronghold of Orthodoxy so somehow certain traditions remained and I can even say that you know in order to try to understand the Nakama literature better we certainly cannot ignore this later texts even though they are liturgical whatever this means so this is one thing that historically the Nakamadi was just too big of a phenomenon to allow people to see anything else but I think today we are slowly growing to appreciate the Nakamadi literature spark of Coptic literature and again I must say that here at the University of Oslo the project working on this stuff is doing excellent work a collective effort and that's important that actually the best scholarship is the scholarship done in a team or at least in consultation in dialogue with others so it's a collective work brilliant colleagues who have been contributing a lot to the field and actually the place where I'm at now the Faculty of Theology at the University of Oslo is a nice demonstration of this because here there is an entire European Research Council funded project dedicated specifically to Coptic Apocrypha I also want to mention Dylan Burns who here has been also very active in pointing out these important connections between Nakamadi literature and the magical literature and the other thing is as I said the state of survival the fact that the manuscripts we have are in fragments so like in my edition of The Preaching of Philip I brought together fragments from I think five different collections and this is kind of the simple case like sometimes you have fragments from various different collections with one tiny fragment from Paris joining another tiny fragment from London and like together you try to make sense of them and to make sense of them you need to consult the Arabic evidence and Ethiopic evidence wherever so this is usually a very complicated task this makes it somehow difficult to access this data and that's why because we didn't have proper editions and we still for many texts don't have proper editions these texts are not as well known as they should be but I hope that this situation will change soon and that this literature will eventually be integrated into what we know about late antique Christianity because this is an important part of late antique spirituality in general I would say I think this is like why is it so exciting to work in this field because today these walls are finally falling and you know New Testament people are learning to appreciate Nakhamadi people and Nakhamadi people are learning to appreciate magic people and there is this constant exchange of ideas my colleague Korshidozu is now going to edit a volume of Coptic Magical Texts and to my great surprise one of these magical texts that he edited there actually mentions Philemon if I remember correctly it's a it's a spell that is actually related to like singing voice so somebody probably in connection to church service performs this spell to acquire good voice and he addresses some sort of deity or demon and says that well I want to have a sweet voice like that of Philemon so I mean again all these people all these texts they existed in the same kind of environment and they were constantly sharing ideas with each other and whatnot magic influenced apocryphal literature apocryphal literature influenced magic and only when we consider all this stuff as a one beautiful world of ideas we would really learn to appreciate it the common denominator for me whether it be apocalyptic literature whether it be these apocryphal acts texts any of these things it comes from a kind of scribal milieu, right? these were very learned people constantly glossing things when you're writing stuff down you were mentioning Philemon's voice and I was reminded of my awesome discussion with Dr. Collins I didn't get apocalypse of Abraham in there for time but just the concept of the sweet voice the angel Yael he's the singer of the most high gods so he's like got the sweetest voice he has this song and I can imagine certain people appropriating this song maybe in their magical experiences because they give you the actual lyrics and everything so the unsung heroes of anything we read whether that be our Nag Hammadi volumes whether that be our Old Testament pseudopigrapha volumes or even our collective Greek novels or Homer they rely on these texts this receptives these authoritative texts by these people who go out to like remote monasteries and like dumps dumpsters and put these things together and have to go to museums so you really are the all of you not just you Dr. Maroshnikov but all of your colleagues all the people working on this Dylan Burns our rock star is you know all of you are just doing amazing work and I just want to thank you for that there are some volumes forthcoming so there will be a volume called Para Biblica Coptica which is a volume I'm editing so it will hopefully appear this year already in Germany in a Morsebeck publishing house so it will be dedicated specifically to Coptic Apocrypha and here in Oslo Hugo Lunghauk and his colleagues are also preparing a volume on Coptic Apocrypha which will be a volume of studies and as far as I understand there is also a volume of translations in the works so hopefully your hunger for Coptic Apocrypha will be quenched thanks to these publications and yeah as I said the volumes by Tony Burke are also extremely nice introduction to the topic Dr. Moroshnikov this has been amazing I want to thank you I think this is an amazing initiative I really enjoy it for the second time and I really hope that you continue doing this was a lot of fun so this is a roundabout way but Yvonne telling everybody to go learn Coptic

No solo se trata de nosotros y de nuestra salud, también están ellos. Y el caso de la resistencia a los antimicrobianos, RAM, no es la excepción. Por eso, en el siglo XXI se reconoce y enfatiza el concepto llamado una salud. Este reconoce la interdependencia entre la salud humana, sanidad animal y el medio ambiente. Es el momento adecuado para hacer tratamientos preventivos y curativos para evitar que siga otras plantas. Eso quiere decir que existen problemas para nuestra salud que provienen de la salud de los animales y que muchas veces son influenciados por alteraciones en el medio ambiente. Por ejemplo, es relevante para el control de la zoonosis. Las enfermedades zoonóticas son aquellas que se transmiten de los animales al hombre, como la influenza, la rabia, la tuberculosis, la brucellosis. Son enfermedades que representan un riesgo para toda la población mundial. También se relaciona con la inocuidad de los alimentos y la resistencia a los antimicrobianos. De manera que es importante tener esta mirada de una salud y pensar que también a través de los alimentos, de los productos alimenticios, es posible la transmisión de estas bacterias que cada vez más y con mayor frecuencia tienen asociadas resistencias a los antimicrobianos. Role de la FAO, frente al problema RAM, es vital para la sociedad. Pero seguro te preguntarás, ¿cuál es la relación entre las bacterias resistentes, los animales, los ecosistemas y las personas? Bacterias resistentes pueden entrar en la cadena alimentaria a través de los animales, del agua o el suelo y contaminar los productos frescos que consumimos. Por eso, el enfoque una salud es importante para enfrentar a la RAM y es el que se aplicará en el proyecto de colaboración tripartito, trabajando juntos para combatir la resistencia a los antimicrobianos, liderado por OPS, FAO, OIE y la Unión Europea. Siete países de Latinoamérica son parte de este esfuerzo. Las organizaciones internacionales están listas. Las autoridades competentes de los países están listas. Sin embargo, la contención de la RAM es tarea de todos. ¿Qué puedes hacer tú? No te pierdas el siguiente video.

Tamil Nadu: Liquor Sales Benefit Exchequer, Workers Get Pittance
|
The #TamilNadu State Marketing Corporation, a government-owned entity, has a monopoly in wholesale and retail alcoholic beverages sales in the state. The state government earned Rs 36,013.14 crore in revenue through the sale of liquor in the 2021-2022 financial year.
But even a minor portion of this revenue has not benefited the #workers, who helped TASMAC earn it. They frequently protest to demand minimum wages. Their situation remains the same even after 18 years of working with the Corporation, and it is no better under the MK Stalin-led DMK government.

The government of Tamil Nadu took over the sale of liquor from private individuals in the year 2003 to generate revenue for the state. The Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation, TASMAC, now employs around 26,000 workers as supervisors, salesmen and assistant salesmen. These workers, even after 19 years of service, are on contract and are demanding permanent jobs, social security measures and better working conditions. Today, we have been working for 10 hours. The government needs to move forward, but today, TASMAC employees are being held by this government. After that, we opened TASMAC in 10th year. In the 10th year, we have been working for 5,000 to 10,000 workers, salesmen 11,000 to 100,000 workers. We have been working for 9,000 to 10,000 workers. This is the basic salary. This is not enough for us. We cannot give this to the government. We have been working for 18 years, 18 years and 18 years. But we do not have enough salary. We have been working for 18 years, 18 years and 18 years. But we do not have enough salary. We are not giving salary to the government. We are doing it for our children.

We have no way to go to the toilet, or the toilet. There is no way to go to the toilet for 4 days, or to the toilet for 4 days. We have heard about the short-term interest of the government. In 2018, the cost of the thieves was Rs.2,000. Today, Rs.13,000 is Rs.15,000. When the thieves continue to fight, they will continue to fight with the government. They will continue to fight with the government. They will continue to fight with the government. That is the situation. This government and this government are facing the same situation. When we first heard about the cost, when we fought in 2006, the government announced Rs.540,000 and Rs.300,000. We cannot accept this. With the help of the thieves, we decided that we should decide the interest. After that, we came to the court. From then on, the people of Selvi jail were charged with Rs.500. 16 times the interest was paid by the government. The amount of interest paid by the people was Rs.13,000. The amount of interest was paid by the government. In the city, we took the rent and educated the children. Can we manage the medical expenses and health expenses? The government did not know that. The government decided that the interest was paid by the government. But the government did not know that. The government did not know that. In the city, we took the claim petition for Rs.1,000. In the city, we took the claim petition for Rs.1,000. The government did not know that. Our social working rights was given by the government and they were involved with our labor work. We did not need money to increase. Our work was done with left to make More. The employment прот pursue cost for expenses between the village and the village was Rs.4-5 lakhs. We took to the lab, the mayor of week, After frequent protests, the salary of the task mark workers were increased on 16 different occasions since 2003. But the highest basic salary reminds a paltry Rs. 13,250 for the supervisor. The salesmen and assistant salesmen draw a much lower salary. The DMK government is following the footsteps of the previous AI-DMK regime with no effective interventions on administrative actions required to ensure permanent jobs for these workers. We have given the government the government's support to ensure permanent jobs. We have given the government the government's support to ensure permanent jobs for these workers. We have given the government the government's support to ensure permanent jobs for these workers. But the government has not taken any action in the last eight months. The workers of the task mark corporation works for 10 hours a day without weekly and public holidays. No minimum wage or social welfare measures and benefits as per existing laws are ensured. The CITU has demanded the government to ensure the workers' rights and set up a commission to inquire into the allegations of bribes for transfer, purchase and bartenders which involves the higher ups in the government and administration. But the government has not taken any action to ensure the workers' rights and set up a commission to inquire into the allegations of bribes for transfer, purchase and bartenders The government has not taken any action to ensure the workers' rights and set up a commission to ensure the workers' rights and set up a commission to inquire into the allegations of bribes for transfer, purchase and bartenders which involves the higher ups in the government and administration.

Hey dropshippers and welcome back to our YouTube channel. Today's video is extremely special because all the information on my barter list is relevant to the Q4 holidays coming up. So make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel, grab a pen, grab a notebook, maybe some snacks even and stay tuned for all the relevant information I'm about to drop in this video. Quick intro and let's get it. One of the busiest and most profitable times of the year is the much anticipated Q4. So to clarify for those who are new to dropshipping or who are uncertain of what the term Q4 means, it is the time of the year that is spanning from the beginning of October or through December. There are numerous holidays and special occasions that fall on certain days in between of these months. And that is exactly why during Q4 online sales and shopping skyrockets in comparison to other months of the year. And this is why we also strongly encourage dropshippers to take advantage of this special time of the year. And that is exactly why this video is here to tell you what products to sell and how to prepare your online store for Q4 holidays. So what changes occurred during Q4 dropshipping that dropshippers should be aware of? Well, because it is the busiest season of the year and there's all this hustling and bustling going on around us, there are about several changes that occurred during Q4 dropshipping. As a matter of fact, because it is the most popular time of the year, the spike in demand pulls on the threads of stock, shipping, marketing, and other aspects of dropshipping. So let's dive straight into what are the changes that we can expect during Q4 dropshipping. So our first very big change is the rise in e-commerce sales. If we have a look at this chart, we can see an exponential rise of online sales during the Q4 season. Online sale records are without fail broken every year during the Q4 season and people are spending all of their time online searching for gifts to purchase for the various holidays. So this is definitely the shopping season to take advantage of, trust me. Our next change is to expect longer delivery times than usual. Because there's a lot of pressure on shipping carriers due to the influx of orders surrounding the holiday season, we should prepare for some delays because trust me, it is bound to happen along the way and you need to be prepared. The way around this would be to work with multiple dropshipping suppliers. So for example, if I'm only working with AliExpress and I can see that their shipping times are longer than usual simply due to the fact that everybody's online purchasing something because it is the Q4 holidays. And not only that, take into consideration that the product needs to still be shipped from China too so it's even longer. I'm automatically going to go ahead and look for another dropshipping supplier that is able to ship from a place where my target audience resides. So for example, if I'm dropshipping to the USA then I'm going to look for multiple US dropshipping suppliers. Our next change is the increase in customer service. So this means that you're going to be receiving more customer inquiries than normal and this naturally comes with the Q4 holiday season. Remember that the more traffic that is driven to your stores results in more sales which means that customers are going to reach out to you. The best way to deal with this is to constantly check up on the customer support that you're providing to your buyers. This means checking up on the progress of their orders, constantly checking your messages to make sure that you haven't missed anything and make sure to check the messages on both your selling platforms and your emails. If you're selling on eBay, you can check out our customer service feature that we have available on our AutoDS platform. This is a simple way of taking care of all your customers inquiries in one place. You simply just click on the customer support button and here you'll see all the messages from your various buyers pop up which you will be able to respond directly from our AutoDS platform. If you don't have the time to be going through all of your customers inquiries do not worry, you can hire a virtual assistant who can do this on behalf of you. We also have a blog article which explains how you're able to hire a virtual assistant where you can find virtual assistants and how you're able to negotiate with them. Our next change is product discounts which is something that we should be providing to our customers during Q4. Why? Because people are looking for sales, they're looking for those discounted products especially on those Black Friday and Cyber Monday holidays. So we would want to build our store theme around discounted prices and offering promo codes. Q4 really is the best time to be offering these promotions. If you're struggling to price your products at discounted prices and you're worried that you won't be making a profit simply just head over to your competitor's online stores and just check out what they are pricing their products at. The next change is stock shortages and the best way to deal with this is by utilizing drop shipping automation tools and working with multiple suppliers. For example, if we head over to the Autodesk platform and we head over to the products button I then have this product that goes out of stock on my supplier sites. I then need it to immediately go out of stock on my store too. If we're not utilizing automation tools the stock numbers can drop without me even knowing. Let's say for example I go to bed and I'm sleeping and I wake up the next morning and I see that I have 20 or 30 sales on a product that is no longer in stock. This becomes a huge problem because I did not have a software in place that automated my stock status whilst I was sleeping. And having this automation software in place would have saved me from having to cancel my customers orders. As drop shippers we need to be extremely careful of this especially on selling channels such as eBay and Facebook marketplace who are strict and will have your account banned. So our last key for drop shipping change is higher marketing costs. To market your store during Q4 holidays generally costs more. This is only relevant to those selling platforms that do not generate free organic traffic such as Shopify, Wex and WooCommerce where you should be running ads on the products that you are listing. Keep in mind that a lot of other drop shippers and business owners will be running ads on the products during the Q4 holidays. So in order to compete for an ad, a paper, click ad we need to make sure that we're investing more into our ads budgets. So for example, if I want to get a thousand clicks on an ad it's going to cost me more during Q4. Instead of paying 20 cents per click I'm now going to be paying 50 cents per click. Don't be alarmed if you're investing more in your ads budget because the sales conversion from those ads will be higher. And just a quick side note for you drop shippers please do not be afraid of marketing costs. If you're marketing the right product to the right target audience rather pay more so that you'll be able to receive more. Great stuff. Now that we have the drop shipping changes that occur during Q4 out of the way let's now take a look at the top seasonal events that we can take advantage of during Q4 drop shipping. I'm pretty sure we can all guess what is the first seasonal event that's coming up. Yep, you guessed it Halloween which is celebrated on the 31st of October. And although the US market is our main target audience here other countries also celebrate Halloween which means we can target a larger audience. Statistics show that consumers plan on spending 10.1 billion USD on Halloween costumes, decorations, candies, accessories in 2021 alone. I mean how insane is that? And that just proves to us that there definitely is an opportunity for us to boost our store sales based of the seasonal events. Next up we have Thanksgiving which is right around the corner after Halloween. Thanksgiving is mainly an American holiday but it's also celebrated in Canada. Also keep in mind that other countries across the globe celebrate their own version of Thanksgiving. It's just at different times. Leading up to Thanksgiving offering theme decorations, diningware and kitchenware is a good idea. If you'd like to reach a larger target audience leading up to Thanksgiving make sure to prepare to target a different audience at different times with different items. Next for Q4 dropshipping we have the most loved day by consumers, Black Friday. Black Friday happens globally on the Friday straight after Thanksgiving and this year Black Friday falls on the 25th of November. Make sure to save that date. Shoppers look forward to this event because it allows them to purchase large amounts of items at great bargain prices which means you should definitely ride the wave and offer discounts in your dropshipping stores when the seasonal holiday approaches. Remember to lower your prices in order to stay in line with your competition. This may mean losing some initial profits but in the long run we'll still be able to benefit because we'll see an increase in website traffic which then results in higher profits. So we're not really taking alls here. Now just when you thought it couldn't get any better right after Black Friday comes Cyber Monday and this is important for Q4 dropshipping because it's the ultimate event to take advantage of. Plus there's also a super high focus on consumer electronics at this time. To put Cyber Monday in a nutshell for you it's basically a discounted online shopping bonanza that turns the spotlight on e-commerce businesses. So we're really winning here because it's our optimal time for our dropshipping store to shine. It is recommended that during this time we sell electronics of all varieties. For example, smartwatches, hairdryers, gaming accessories and much more. Remember to not worry too much about lowering your prices because the increase in website traffic makes up for it. I feel like this next highlighted Q4 dropshipping event will make you laugh but here it is singles day. Now singles day is a huge e-commerce sales event in China that was started by Alibaba and it falls on the 11th of November every year. Believe it or not but because it is a hugely successful event it has been extended to the first 11 days of November rather than just one day which would have been the 11th of November. So if you're wondering how does this event tie in with dropshipping singles day offers consumers big discounts across all e-commerce stores and to give you a little bit of an idea as to why you should consider partaking your store in this event is JD.com, a giant Chinese e-commerce platform managed to rack up a record breaking $52 billion during this event. Like what? It's so crazy, right? And although as dropshippers we might not be able to reach this figure it just gives us a glimpse into what profits we potentially could be making. Next up we have everybody's favorite Q4 holiday which is Christmas. We all know that Christmas is potentially one of the best events for dropshippers and their stores. Because Christmas falls on the 25th of December and as crazy as it might sound we need to start our product research now to ensure that our dropshipping stores are ready for the biggest holiday of the year. Keep in mind that consumers are looking for Christmas presents weeks and months in advance. So that just means that we can enjoy solid sales volumes for weeks and months to come. We also don't have to offer big discounts in order to stay competitive. We can sell at full price and enjoy those high profit margins to come. Cha-ching! Our last Q4 dropshipping holiday is Wait! There's another event we can benefit from after Christmas? Absolutely! The post Christmas sales allows us to optimize our store with product discounts. For a while, even after Christmas online sales still pour in. Especially in countries like Canada where they celebrate Boxing Day and have weekly sales. Keep in mind that New Year's Eve is creeping up so we can further leverage this to boost our sales around this event. So there you have it. Those were the top seven Q4 dropshipping events that every dropshipper should be taking advantage of. Let's now briefly take a look at what are the best dropshipping niches and key products that you should be selling during Q4 in order to scale your stores. Remember that Q4 products can be categorized as high ticket items as they are high in demand and extremely profitable during this period. So don't play yourselves dropshippers. Our next niche are children's toys. And in truth, Q4 is much scented around children's joy. So toys are necessary for our Q4 listings, okay? Also with Halloween, Christmas and all the birthdays happening this quarter we have plenty of opportunities to boost our sales. Let's now take a look at what are the best children's toys for Q4 dropshipping. First up, we have the LCD writing tablet which is a great way for children to learn and be creative. Next up, we have the dinosaur activity play mat which is not just for entertainment but it also serves for educational purposes because kids can learn from it whilst they play. We also have the toy rocket launcher dolls which is a classic kids toy and will never lose its popularity as well as electric mini cars. They see me rolling, they're hating. These electric mini cars are high in demand because they are extremely appealing to children making them the perfect Christmas gift. Next up, we have the fitness and entertainment niche that has become incredibly lucrative. Entertainment will just simply never go out of fashion and we've seen more and more people become more in tune with their health and fitness goals which just proves that this niche is incredibly profitable. Here are some of the best high ticket items to sell under this niche. Up first, we have smart watches which can measure your heart rate, your sleeping patterns, your workouts and much more. It's also become a super trendy item so make sure to list this as a high ticket item. Next up, we have yoga mats. You can offer these yoga mats in various sizes, colors and styles. Next up, we have gaming keyboard sets which is the most profitable item on our list. The gaming keyboard sets usually consist of a gaming grade keyboard, a mask and an optional headset. High ticket ski goggles and snowboards also fall under this niche especially because winter is the dominant season during Q4. Next up, we have the jewellery and accessories niche. Over time, this niche has proved to be extremely profitable especially during Q4. In fact, jewellery is one of, if not the most go-to choice for gift giving since these pieces are timeless, classic and beautiful. So here are some of the most popular items under this niche. We have cross pendant necklaces, friendship bracelets, rhinestone snowflake brooches, Christmas tree earrings to show your festivity on Christmas day and of course, the travel jewellery box which is a great product to sell throughout the year because we're able to store our various jewellery accessories. Next up, we have the beauty cane niche which offers a lot of diverse products and great bundle options. Remember that offering product bundles is a great way to increase your average order value. So here are some of the best items to sell under this niche. First up, we have a set of beauty blenders. We all know that this has been a popular item amongst women for years now and because of this, that is exactly why they are trendy and profitable. Our next item is eye masks. So the eye mask is usually two under eye patches which is filled with healthier notion components that helps with wrinkles, dark circles and moisturizing. Next up, we have the LED photodynamic device. No worry, I'll explain. So this device emits light composed of blue, yellow, green and red and as a result, it increases the amount of collagen in the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Next up, we have the UV nail lamp which is used to set gel nail polish. As such, this product is perfect for manicures, pedicures and creating those fake nails. And do not worry, we have not forgotten about the men which brings me to our next product, the electric hair clippers which is one of the best selling items for Q4 drop shipping. We also have the popular flower dog bow ties and the folding silicone water bowl which is super convenient for any owner's furry friend to stay hydrated anywhere, anytime. We have now looked into all the profitable niches and products for Q4 drop shipping. Let's now look at how we're able to find these winning products for our stores. First, we can take a look at the various drop shipping suppliers best sellers list. This list is based on data generated from previous sales activities. Next, you're able to also spy on your competition. For example, you can search for a product on eBay and then check out other sellers metrics. We also have the AutoDS product research tool and this tool helps us to automatically find winning products. Lastly, you can also utilize our AutoDS blog where you'll find endless drop shipping articles and you can head over to our YouTube channel where you can find endless drop shipping content, guides, tutorials, and tips. So to wrap this YouTube video up, I'm briefly going to go through the seven tips you need to know in order to prepare your store for drop shipping in Q4. The first tip is to optimize sales with product bundles. People opt for gift sets for both themselves and others so we can offer product bundles with a good selection of while grouped items. Also, remember to offer these product bundles at discounted prices. Tip two would be to utilize email marketing. Since marketing costs increase during Q4, this is a great way to save some money while still marketing our stores. Tip three would be to keep up with the latest trends. Shoppers interests and demands are constantly changing and so does trends. This happens a lot more often during Q4 because holidays and shopping events change so fast. Because of this, we need to stay on top of trends in order to stay relevant and competitive. Make sure to constantly review your products and conduct relevant product research. The first tip would be to work with multiple drop shipping suppliers in various regions. Remember what I said at the beginning of this video about the changes that we can expect during Q4 drop shipping. Expect to experience longer shipping times and stock shortages. This is exactly why we should be working with multiple drop shipping suppliers so that we can avoid those exact problems. Tip five would be to create personalized discounts. As we now know, Q4 drop shipping is all about discounts. And this is the perfect opportunity for you to create big discounts without hurting your stream of income. And our final tip would be to automate your drop shipping operations.

This is Orson Welles speaking from London. Here in the glimstone structure on the Thames, which houses Scruff and Yard, is a warehouse of homicide, where everyday objects, an ink bottle, a child's raincoat, a sofa pillow, all are touched by murder. Here's an open-hand wrench. It's a familiar object. If you own an automobile, you own one of these. At least you've seen a mechanic use one. The steel shaft, about eight inches long. The shaft bulging into a curved shape like a horseshoe, which fits a bolt exactly. Simple tool, almost beautiful in its slim efficiency. Well made, isn't it, Inspector? We are familiar with these things, Doctor. They are quite common in the weapon. Yes, of course. One skull could be cracked rather efficaciously if this were brought down hard on it. Today, this open-hand wrench can be seen in the Black Museum. All of the Criminal Investigation Department of the London Police, we bring you the dramatic stories of the crimes recorded by the objects in Scotland Yard's Gallery of Death, the Black Museum. Here lies death. Here in Silent Rose is the ordered catalogue of the violence wreaked by man on fellow man. Here's an empty cardboard match cover. Perhaps you've talked one into your own wastebasket this very moment, but not like this. Let's hope. No, from this one, they sulfur-headed matches were ripped to start a fire. A woman died in the burning building. Later, a man died. The end of a rope, trapped by the printed advertisement on this match cover. Ah, yes, here we are. Here's the open-hand wrench. It's a common tool among mechanics, even among non-mechanical types. Bookkeepers, clerks, teachers, no time of violence or death upon it, merely a bit of shaped, patterned steel produced for use in the manufacturing repair of modern machines. Look at it in ordinary circumstances, and it'll evoke no thought of tragedy in you. Or even in the motorist who traveled an English highway one quiet spring morning. Going at a normal speed, enjoying the fresh sunlight, the new clean green of fields and rising hills, the road curved ahead, white-posed smart the edge of the embankment, the road healed slightly turning to the left. Ah, quite a view. Gee, God, it's a nasty curve. It's not awake. That fence. There's a car down there. It's only until he's back in his own car, speeding toward the nearest town, toward the nearest police station. There. There's a wreck on the curve about a mile south of here. You have anything to do with it, Mr. Oh, no, no, no, of course not. I noted the broken fence and for the car down the hill. Ah, I say there seems to be a woman in it. Look, you better come and bring help. The doctor who was also the local columnar needed little time to determine which of his functions would call for at the wreck. He's been passed hell for hours. Must have gone off the road during the night. I've notified the superintendent about the accident, doctor. Yes, well, you fellows will want to trace the car. Any identification on the body? Nothing in the woman's purse, sir. It ought to be laundry or dry cleaners, Mark. It's pretty hard to identify these days, doctor. Yes, of course. You can tell the ambulance men to take it to the hospital. Hospital, sir? Or topsy. I can't just sign the certificate, accidental death, you know, Constable? Yes, sir, very well, sir. The ambulance drove off to the local hospital. Dr. Mason followed in his own car. At the wreck, the constable saluted a newcomer. Good morning, sir. Good morning, Johnson. Sir, I'm turtle, I see. Yes, sir. This is the man who discovered the wreck, sir. Mr. Frisbee, superintendent Foster. How do you do, sir? Mr. Frisbee, yes. You, uh, left your name and address? Well, with the constable, sir. Um, if I may, I have a business appointment. Yes, you go ahead. We'll send for you if we need you for the inquiry. Oh, thank you, sir. Well, just let me know if you want me. I'll be available any time, sir. Anything extraordinary, Johnson? Nothing, sir. As far as we've seen, no fire, no, sir. I'll have a look at it. Very good, sir. Superintendent Foster poked around in the twisted metal, and point caught his attention. Johnson, any idea of which way she was traveling? Downgrade, sir. There are rather clear tar marks on the roadway, leading to the break and offensive. Downgrade. Strange. The gear shift lever is in second position. Second gear, sir? Apparently. That grade isn't that steep. Just a point. Well, a woman driver, strange road at night. She wasn't in the driver's seat, sir. Oh? Tossed over as the car fell? Can't say, sir. I'd have expected, sir, that she'd have been pinned behind the steering wheel. Yeah. You may be right about that. Well, they'll leave things as they are. The insurance people usually want to see these wrecks. Open end wrench, sir. Probably from the air scuntable. I was going to say the toolbox, sir. The toolbox was locked. No other tools around. Well, bring it along to the station house. No sense leaving it out here to rust. And usual routine. Place the registration of the car. Locate the owner or the next of kin. And check if it was the woman's car. Another auto accident. Another careless or sleepy driver. The usual telegrams were sent. The usual telephone calls were made. The same afternoon, Constable Johnston reported to a superintendent. Here's Johnston. Papers on the accident, sir. Yeah, yeah. I see. Owner, Martin Beach. Avan Mules London. Has he been notified? Yes, sir. He's on his way down. The woman was his wife, sir. Must have been a shock. I took the call, sir. He kept saying he couldn't understand what she was doing all the way out here. Well, we'll deal gently with him. Dr. Mason reported yet? No, sir. Nothing on the autopsies yet. Taking him a long time? Well, let's see. Get me Dr. Mason, please. At the hospital. Did you make certain on the tire tracks, Johnston? We did, sir. They matched perfectly. The car was coming down, sir, on the side of the road away from the fence. It seems to have swerved suddenly, just above the curve, and made rather a beeline for the edge. Are you suggesting she went over purposefully, Johnston? No, sir. It seemed like a point, sir. Most cars at least tried to follow the road, sir. I notice you keep referring to the car, and not to the woman. She wasn't in the driver's seat, sir, when we found her. Stickler for detail, aren't you, Gunstable? Get in. Ah, you're both here, Johnston. I just put a call to you, doctor. Yes. Yes, thank you. Yes, he's just arrived. Well, what did you find, doctor? You asked, yes, as if you knew. Just a deduction. You don't usually take this long time on these jobs. I didn't expect to, until I found alcohol in her stomach. Oh, drunken driver. Oh, I wouldn't know about that. In any case, she wasn't driving when the car went through that fence. Johnston has been suggesting that rather stubbornly. He couldn't be more right faster. Why not? The dead don't drive. Hello? Anything else? Quite a bit. In the first place, death was not caused by the accident. She was dead well before the car went over. You told us that? You know how? Stangulation. Choked. Probably unconscious at the time. Well, what do you base that conclusion on? Four bruises. Hey, the neck. I just heard, so I thought the accident. Well, the dead don't drive, and they don't bruise, Constable. Those marks were made while she was still alive. I see. Definitely murder, doctor. Definitely. I'd like to see the body. Come along, Constable. Three men enter the morgue at the small country hospital. Three grim faces betray no emotion as they view the woman's body. The doctor says, You'll notice the marks, the strangest thumbs made there. The obvious bruise is here. Just below her hairline, on her forehead. Superintendent of police says, I see. Interesting the shape of that bruise. Almost like a small horseshoe. Differently, the Constable clears his throat, inquiring grants from his superintendent. The young officer says, We might try for actual size, sir. That kind of mark could have been made by that open-end wrench. And today, that open-end wrench has to be seen in the black museum. The doctor placed the bulged end of the tool against the woman's forehead. The three men stood there silently a moment. The Constable spoke. No question about it, sir. Not as far as I can see. Johnson, when this beach fellow arrives, say nothing about any of this. And I shall want a trunk called placed immediately. I want to speak with Inspector Hall at Scotland Yard. The ponderous, inevitable joggernaut that is, police work began to move. Gain momentum. A fast car brought Inspector Hall and Sergeant Williams from the yard before train connections permitted the arrival of Martin Beach. The inspector listened intently as Superintendent Foster outlined the details. Then, finally, no fuss, no newspaper headlines. Detectives were dispatched to run a check. Shortly thereafter, a grief-stricken husband arrived at the station house in the company of Dr. Mason. There's no question about my identification, Superintendent. Dr. Mason will bear me out. I knew her the moment that that is... Doctor, yes, it's Mrs. Beach. I can't understand it. I simply can't. She was a good driver better than I. How did it happen that she was out alone? We live at a quiet life. Even Moose is in the suburb of London, really. She'd often take the car for a drive. I'd go to sleep. I had to get up early. I'd go to sleep in the city. She said she wanted some fresh air last night. I didn't miss her until I woke this morning. I can't understand it. Why, could you be so... A simple story, quite commonplace, quite honest. One question seemed to puzzle a husband more than it disturbed him. Liquor? Whiskey, you mean? No, an occasional drink at a friend's place. That was all. Why? Are you suggesting Louise was a drunken driver? No, they were suggesting nothing, merely asking a routine question. Yes, they would release the body shortly. We had no relations, no one. We had only each other. I shall have to notify our friends. Yes, the police agreed sympathetically, and Superintendent Foster and Dr. Mason escorted him to his London train. Meanwhile, on the Middlebury Road. Your name, Carey? Yes, sir. My name's William, CID. My identification. Yes, Sergeant? Something go wrong? You heard of the accident down the hill? Yes, of course. How late do you keep this petrol station open? 12, one o'clock, depends on your traffic. And last night? I closed up about one. Locked the tanks and... Any customers around that time? Well, there was a dark sedan, man or woman. You got a good look at the woman? He was driving, bought five gathers. She was asleep at the front seat. Any sign of whiskey? Well, he had a breath on him, Sergeant. Seemed it an hour or two. Now, look, this photo mean anything to you? Yes, it looks a little... Sergeant, tell it tonight that the light's bad. Is she sleeping there in the picture? No. She's dead. They call it backtracking. They try to trace the car along the road it traveled. The gas station's first. In this case, where whiskey was present, the taverns and the inns were checked as well. You're the landlord here? Yes, sir. My wife said you're the police. Yes. They're trying to trace the men and the woman. Does picture mean anything to you? Yes, sir. She was here last night till closing time. Had a bit too much, I'm afraid, sir. No. Alone? No, sir. No, with a shortish veller. Dark, quiet, in a nervous sort of way. I remember, because, well, he wanted to buy a bottle, but I'd never spare. I rather thought what was driving and all, they'd already had enough. That evening, Sergeant Williams gave the inspector his own reports from that of the men assigned to the railroad portion of the inquiry. They routed the conductor out of his bed. He remembers the fellow all right, bought his ticket on the train. Complete stranger, shortish and dark. Yes, she was with a man all right. Seems to me we'd better break the news to Beach. Hmm, it won't be pleasant. It wasn't pleasant. Martin Beach took it quietly, but it would all be a shock. Louise, with another man, Inspector, you can't be serious. I'm afraid I am. Your wife's picture has been tentatively identified by a petrol station owner, by an innkeeper on the Middlebury Road. They'll be taken out of the hospital to check tomorrow. And she was with the man. No, it's not possible. No one could have been that secretive. Why? We just lived for each other. Well, it's an old story to us, Mr. Beach. You're a busy man. Your wife was alone a good deal. How? You told us yourself. She used the car, alone, and quite often at night. If I could get my hands on him, what fools we mortal to be? We want him to, Mr. Beach. Now, will you help us? Of course, anything. Anything at all. Then maybe search your wife's affix? Of course, Inspector. Search the whole house. They were quite thorough, of course, and very quickly they were successful. I found these in the stocking box at the rear of the Bureau drawer, Inspector. I see. Let it. Mr. Beach, do you know of Fred Hennessy? No. May I see the letters? Right. Well, I... I think you'd rather not. And we'll be checking them for fingerprints, of course. They're all addressed to your wife. The last one makes the arrangements for the meeting place with the car. Is there... is there a return address, Inspector? There is. Good luck, Inspector. Inspector and Sergeant Williams had luck. However, it was not exactly. Good luck. Fred Hennessy? No. There's no Hennessy living here. Well, now perhaps they use another name, a shortish darkfellow with a flare for letter writing. No. Haven't there any shortish men staying here in months? Well, there is 346. Greenville Street, isn't it? Well, there's nowhere else, Inspector. Once more, I don't have any letter writers here. Every one of my men's roomers, except one, works at the car factory. They're a tough crowd, Inspector, but they're nice enough to me. I take good care of them, I do. And the one who doesn't build automobiles? I don't even constably is. And a big disappointment. Still, the machinery ground on. The reports came in to the small bear office at the behind. Here we are. Fingerprint reports, Inspector. Now, the prints on the letters match those they found on the gear shift lever in the wrecked car. The ridge patterns conform to the smudges on the wrench, too, sir. The conclusion is obvious. At the very least, it placed the maker of those fingerprints in contact in the motor car with the motor weapon. It looks so, as if he pulled off the road, did the job, then started the car downgrade and jumped. Eh, it's probably. The unlocked door on the driver's side would indicate that. For what about those prints I told to try and get? We have them, sir. Listed them neatly. I was saving that for the last, sir. You see? They match. Probably was clever. All murder's usual in amateurs' crime isn't it, Sergeant? What about the men to identify him? They'll be in London in the morning, sir. To Sergeant Williams, the case seemed complete. The Inspector was still somewhat cautious. It will stick, sir. In any court. I'll feel better if we have the motive, Sergeant. I like a complete case. Identifications have been upset before. And even fingerprints. Given a good motive, we'll hang the gentlemen. In fact, we may be able to see he hung himself with his own cleverness. Inspector Hall here. Hmm? I see. Very good, Davis. No. No, just keep your eye on the place. Williams will now be along directly. Get your head, Sergeant. Very good, sir. Our quarrel's gone and calling him a lady. And so are we. The police car stared silently through the London streets out to a pleasant suburb. He dropped to the curb near a small house detached from its neighbors, surrounded by a hedge and trees. A man stepped out of the shadow and spoke softly to the Inspector. He remained at the car as the Inspector and the Sergeant walked to the front door of the house and rang the bell. Yes? Miss Jeffrey? Miss Dorothy Jeffrey? My name is Hall. It's the ID. My identification. May we come in? Right here. By now. Thank you. What can I do for you? Well, as a matter of fact, Miss Jeffrey, we stopped by to see your caller. A Mr. Marchin Beach, I believe? Inspector. Well, this is a pleasure to see you all the way out here. Is it, Mr. Beach? Of course. You know why they heard, don't you? You want me to come by? Wait a minute. What's going on here? Don't you know, Miss Jeffrey? I know the ID. Inspector's dust. Don't drop in or come by. Martin, have you been up to something? Stay out of this, Dorothy. I'm not stay out of it. If we're to be married, I'd be right to know. We stopped by to tell Mr. Beach about his wife. Wife? You never mentioned a wife, Martin. You're not arresting me, Inspector. I was home and asleep when she was killed. I'm not going to let you know now. So, as a conductor of the train, you talk back to London for Middlebury. I say, you're not taking me in. You're not! You're not! Hey, Inspector, there are French doors into the garden. Your house is well-covered from back, Miss Jeffrey. You won't get far. That's his warning. He'll stop running now. This is not the expected way to break an engagement to be married. Yes, I understand, Miss. First, you all get over it. This manner of ending a relationship is far less permanent than the one your fiancee used to gain his freedom from his wife. You know, Miss, the chances are quite good. They've got a way with it. If you hadn't written some fake love letters and forgotten behind a certain open-end wrench... And today, the open-end wrench can be seen in its special place in the Black Museum. Carson Wells will be back with you in just a moment. It's an old garage, of course. It may have worked many times. Commit a murder, rack an automobile to cover its traces. It might have worked this time. If Martin Beach had known that dead bodies do not bruise... If he'd been really clever and had succeeded in burning the car and the body. If... If... If he'd been really clever, his cleverness failed him. Failed him at 8 o'clock one morning in Dartmoor Prison. As for Dorothy Jaffrey, she disappeared when she had come into the great Anna Mimedy, which is London. And so until next time, do we meet in the same place for another story about the Black Museum. I remain as always obediently yours.

Doug Garland, San Francisco 49ers, at SportsData 2014 with John Furrier and Jeff Kelly
If football is your cup of tea, you'll want to watch this interview with Doug Garland, General Manager of Stadium Experience and Technology for the San Francisco 49ers. It appears they have taken a page from NASCAR with regard to improving overall fan engagement and their future initiatives are, no doubt, going to revolutionize the fan experience in a big way.
Garland provided an interesting equation during the conversation. Citing the 160-foot wide Mitsubishi HD installed at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, he stated no such centerpiece would be going into the new Levi Field. The stadium, with a capacity of 70,000, is located in a region of the country where users replace mobile devices every year and a half at a price of $1,000. Rather than, as a team, spending $70 million on a large centerpiece screen, the 49ers opted to focus on putting together a network, including WiFi, that would utilize the screens nearly every fan is carrying with them.
At the new Levi Stadium, the fan experience via mobile device will begin before driving onto the property. From directing the fan to the stadium and to an available parking area through real-time data to letting them know which bathroom has the shortest lines, the fan's handheld device will be key to providing an improved experience.
"What else are we going to do? One of the other areas that we know is a big hassle for fans at the game is waiting in long lines at concession stands. If you go to a football game and you get hungry, you are trying to figure out which part of which quarter do I have to miss so I can go get that hot dog," Garland explained. "That's a trade-off we don't want our fans to have to make. So what we are going to enable at Levi Stadium is the ability for any fan sitting in any section of the stadium to order food and beverage to their seat using their mobile device."
But the football fan experience would be nothing without the beloved replays. The San Francisco 49ers has the "competition on the couch" firmly in its crosshairs with a value-add they are perfecting right now for the new stadium. Their new innovation will be replays streamed to each and every app-enabled mobile device in the stadium within 5-seconds after every play. As Garland notes, this will apply to every play, even plays with controversial calls and plays currently under review.

Data Sports SV event, this is theCUBE, our flagship program, we go out to the events, extract the synopsis from the noise, I'm John Furrier, join with Jeff Kelly, and the next guest is from the San Francisco 49ers, the general manager of Stadium Experience, Doug Garland. Doug, welcome to theCUBE. Thank you. You're a CUBE alumni, you were early on in theCUBE, back in the old Cloudera days when we came in for a special news broadcast. I was, I remember that. And Cloudera recently in the news are raising $900 million in a round of funding, pretty, pretty amazing there. So, the technology swing in Silicon Valley, which you've been a big part of in your career, now with the Niners, it's been pretty amazing over the past decade, but come on, the Niners, Jim Harbaugh, a little controversy in the office, but winning, winning attitude, winning organization, new stadium, tell us about what's going on over there, obviously in terms of the culture, the innovation, and the stadium's at the center of all the action right now because that's gonna dictate everything going forward, new stadium, new experiences, and probably new revenue sources, et cetera. So, dig into it. What's going on in the stadium? So, yeah, you'd mentioned everything going on with the team right now, and what I'd say is, first of all, the 49ers have a tradition of winning, certainly. And when the 49ers think about winning, they wanna win on the field and they wanna win off the field, and we've been fortunate to be winning on the field recently, going to the NFC championships, Coach Harbaugh, and this is all transpiring with Jed York taking over as CEO of the 49ers. And for a long time, the 49ers have wanted to get a new stadium. Candle Stick has been a wonderful home for many years, but it was a little long in the tooth, and it was really time for a new stadium as a home for our team and a place for our fans to come and have a great time. And we were fortunate to be able to find a great location in the city of Santa Clara right in the heart of Silicon Valley. Now, when I'm relatively new to the world of professional sports, in terms of working in it, not as a fan, obviously, I've been a fan forever. But what I've learned is that when owners come in and there's a new stadium that they're building, they think a lot about what should the hallmark be of that stadium. Everybody wants it to be architecturally interesting. Well, what's gonna be the hallmark of that stadium? We saw the Dallas Cowboys Stadium go up, kind of everything's big. They got big TV, among other things. When Jed and the management team of the 49ers, Brog Morate, our COO, now team president, then COO, now team president, we're taking a step back and saying what should our stadium stand for? Well, it doesn't take too long to say we're in the heart of Silicon Valley. What we should stand for is bringing forward all the innovation of Silicon Valley into the hands of our fans so that they can have a great experience. And that's really what the new stadium's all about. So on the technology choices you guys have, I mean, the construction takes center staging, we start getting built and all the seats are in and they're filling in all the gaps and they're gonna look beautifying and everything. So what is the core vision around the technology? What is the innovation strategy for the fan experience? Is it better videos, better bandwidth? Where's the centerpiece on the strategy? To start with the bandwidth and the wifi? Is it the concessions? Is it taking selfies? What? Taking selfies? I mean, of course, you gotta take a camera selfie. The short answer is yes to all of that. So when we think about the stadium and constructing a big experience, it was mentioned earlier, we do think about the competition from the catch. When you're a fan and you're thinking about going to the game, you wanna go to that stadium because you're there with your friends, you see the live action on the field, there's nothing like the energy you get from being part of that crowd. But you know there's gonna be heavy traffic, you know there's gonna be lines, not just to get in, but to get food. You know a lot of that color commentary, particularly around football, that you begin to enjoy on TV you're gonna miss. So it's kind of a trade-off because you can look at that comfortable couch with those wonderful replays and the food right around the corner that you don't have to wait in line for. So we think about that. We want it to be less of a trade-off. We want you to come into the game and not have to make that trade-off. So how are we gonna do it? Well, you can take a step back and think about how to deliver it, but it doesn't take a genius to say, well, wait a minute, what's really going on in terms of consumer technology today? What do we hear all the time? Mobile first. So we know the fans coming to our game are gonna be carrying smart devices and we know that they're accustomed to being able to order food on their mobile devices or consume content on their mobile devices. So what we wanted to do was construct a stadium that would support that. Now, what does that start with? Well, if you're gonna have mobile device, you better have great wireless coverage. So we're gonna have great wireless coverage. Certainly like every stadium, we're working with the cellular carriers to have great wireless coverage, but we're putting into place a network, including Wi-Fi that we think will bring an unprecedented level of coverage in the stadium. You feel confident about that? Yeah, we feel very confident about it. That's a hard problem we heard from Bill here in the Niners. Took him a long time to get it right. You guys all in on that? Is it all hands on deck? Yeah, it's well, very much so. And so what we've done is we think we have deployed access points in the stadium in a new way that's not typically done. And we're working with our Wi-Fi partner, Aruba, to make sure that we get this system up in tune. I'll tell you what it reminds me of. It reminds me of the early days in cellular. So I spent 10 years in cellular in the 90s. And some of what we talk about with regard to frequency planning and thinking about capacity versus coverage trade-off and creative antenna deployments, that's what we're doing at Levi Stadium. So we're gonna get that wireless coverage right. Now, like every wireless system, it's gonna require some tuning when we launch. No question about that. We're gonna do the best job we can, but wireless systems will alter their behavior. Wi-Fi will be unlicensed, that's the 2.4. Yeah, and the 5GIG. And the 5GIG, but then you're gonna overlay spectrum on top of that, licensed spectrum with the what the carrier will be. Yeah, but we're gonna really rely on Wi-Fi. And one of the things that we're relying on is you mentioned 2.4GIG, but most devices coming out now will also operate in the 5GIG of our spectrum. Now, why is that important? One of the reasons it's important is because when you think about wireless, you can think about channels that mobile devices can use. In 2.4Ghz, they're basically three non-overlapping channels that you can use. You add up to about 20 more when you go to 5GIG. So one of the reasons why we're optimistic about Wi-Fi working is we come along at the right time. There's more spectrum and there's more devices that can take advantage of that spectrum. Now, when you talk to the management, and I know you talk to other clubs as part of your collaboration, what are the things that you're hearing for use cases that are innovative about that, that people might not know about at home about, I didn't know I could do that at the stadium, or I didn't know I could do that when I'm in my relationship with the club, whether they're a fan or season ticket holder or a one game a year fan. Well, so I mentioned a little bit about that competition with the couch, but you can think about what we're gonna do. Let me tell you what we're gonna do. What we're gonna enable a fan to do is enjoy that game on the field by bringing them information about what's going on. One thing that's very important in football, replays. Fans want replays. So what we're gonna allow fans to do who are in the venue is to watch instant replays after every play on demand. We'll get them to you fast. We'll get them to you in under five seconds. It's one thing when you talk about instant replays if you're sitting at home or you're getting them on the web, but if you're at the game, if I can't get them to you fast, doesn't work. And that has to be under five seconds. So you're gonna do that. What else are we gonna do? One of the other areas that we know is a big hassle for fans at the game is waiting in line at concession stands. You, when you go to a football game, if you get hungry, you're smiling. If you get hungry, you're trying to figure out which part of which quarter do I have to miss so I can go get that hot dog. That's a trade-off we don't want our fans to make. So what we're gonna enable at Levi's Stadium is the ability for any fan sitting in any section of the stadium to order food and beverage to their seat using their mobile device. So what's different about what we're doing is the sheer scale of what we're attempting to do. We got some Twitter questions in here instantly coming back, even on controversial calls. Yeah, you'll get replays on every call. You'll get replays after every play. Now, under review plays. What's that? Even if they're under review. You get replays on every play. We're holding it to you. Yeah, now by the way, what I'm talking about is what you're gonna see on your mobile device. What you see up on the big screen may be different. But you'll get every play. So yeah, you'll get that. What does the coach get? The special, the real? The coach gets a special angle. Yeah. So you'll be able to do that. How about the hand around his neck? Was he gonna have a PDA around his neck and the little iPhone? So to all that, being the lately wireless, having each fan to get their own smart device, you can have replays, you can be ordering food. Yeah. That means a lot of data is gonna be created about their behavior, what they're doing, when they're doing it. What role will that play in kind of monitoring and analyzing how the different services you all are working? Do you have plans to kind of really analyze that data to see what's working, what's not working, to make adjustments? Yes. And how will you go about that? Yeah, very much so. So what we are creating is a fan 360 platform for the team. This fan 360 platform will not only collect data to allow us to improve experiences in venue, but also we're gonna bring in data sources that are outside the venue as well so that we can get a complete picture of the fan, hence fan 360. One of the things we know when we launch is that while we think we're gonna have a lot of stuff, right, we're pretty sure we don't have it all right. And we're gonna learn. And so what we wanna be able to do is harness all that data, see what's working, see what isn't working. It could mean that when we take a look at the kinds of plays that our fans in the stadium are looking at replays, might change what our editorial calendar looks like. Certainly, based on what we see from a food and beverage standpoint, NC and express pickup, which will also enable, we're gonna change our staffing plans. And by the way, one of the things that I should say is that while we're leveraging technology, this particularly when it comes to concessions, this is as much about operations and logistics as it is technology. The two have to come together. And will you use data optimize there? Well, it's people process and technology, right? It's not just the technology. And you've got to make those kind of business decisions about where to apply the technology and where the technology might tell you one thing, but you've got to kind of take into consideration your business objectives as well. Yeah, and so what we're all about is providing a great fan experience, but ultimately what we hope the great fan experience translates into is a better business for the 49ers organization. What's your vision for fan experience? I know you and I have talked kind of off camera, but I want you to share the folks, what's your vision? What's the collective organization's vision? It's probably not all lined up, otherwise you wouldn't be working there, but this is a new area. It's a combination of bleeding edge, but you can't fail because you have to deliver a fan experience. What's your vision? How are you gonna go out and deliver those services? So what we wanna do is, the way we think about it right now is we think more game, less hassle. So when you talk about what we're trying to create, people go to the game. We want them to engage in the game, and we want them to get more information that'll help them get emotionally invested in the game. And so in what we're creating from a fan experience, why we're doing replays, we'll also bring in information that's relevant to what's happening on the field. Can you pipe in sound noise to beat the Seahawks? I mean, that's some technology. Some speakers under every seat, you know. Yeah, we've thought about that actually, believe it or not. We've thought about doing things like monitoring which section cheers the loudest and trying to get some competition going. So we've certainly thought about that. But what we wanna do is we wanna get fans to get more game, and we want them watching the field. We don't want them on the phone all the time, but every now and then, if I'm talking with you in a great play, just happen, I'm gonna miss it. We want you to be able to go back and do it. The other thing we want you to feel is less hassle. You don't have to wait in line to get hot dogs. We'll give you some help in terms of getting to the game and navigating to your parking. By the way, if you gotta go, we'll let you know if there are long lines, short lines, or medium lines at the restrooms out there so that you can get up and go. That's gonna be a very popular situation. That's just make sure no Google Glass allowed in the restroom. Yeah, yeah, that's what we think. So we think that's gonna be a very popular feature. Okay, so I gotta ask you, what's been the most exciting thing that you've seen in your job so far? That kinda surprised you. Something that you didn't expect that kinda knocks you off your chair saying, wow, I wouldn't have expected that kinda enablement from technology to make that scenario happen. Do you have an example of that? Oh, I just gotta tell ya. I think there's a couple of things. One, in some of our testing when we're getting those replays as fast as we can get them, it's so much fun to see that come up. I've hosted friends at games with our trial app and they just can't believe it. But the coolest reaction I've gotten actually had to do within Seat Delivery of Food and Babbage. I had a very good friend out from New York and he was hungry and we were sitting together in the stands and I said, go ahead and order your food. And he did and he ordered it, went off, 20 seconds later, there was a 60-yard touchdown play and he turned to me and he said, I would've missed that if I'd gotten up to get that hot dog and he literally grabbed me and he said, this is gonna be huge. And that was very cool. The future's plastics. Yeah, exactly. It's that kinda moment where it's pretty obvious. Yeah. So talk about how big any IT department you guys have there. Is the new stand gonna house the offices as well? Is that gonna be an IT data center there? Community, charities, specifics? Yeah, so when you look at what we're building in the stadium, we're gonna have data centers, we'll have network rooms all around. There's major, major technology going into the stadium to enable it. So there's also gonna be a fully functioning TV studio as well. Comcast is gonna come in and do their games there, or do their reporting for the games. Maybe we'll have the cube down there. Yeah, yes. And so. The sports vertical's opening up as of tonight, so there it goes. There'll be this fully functioning studio as well. So when you walk around the stadium, most fans will see the luxury areas, the concession stands and all that. But behind closed doors, there's gonna be server farm after server farm after server. Dave at the Earthquakes has the biggest bar in history. Can you top that? Yeah, we're gonna have a roof deck. So we actually will have a roof deck. So. You will. Yeah, we really will. There'll be a roof deck. We're gonna grow grass up there. It's gonna be our whole, yeah. So I gotta say, I saw the owner speak at an event, SAP Sapphire last year. He said, why pay $60 billion, $60 million for a scoreboard when the fans bring their own scoreboard to the game? Yeah. And so his attitude was very interesting. It's like, hey, I don't need to go over the top like Jerry Jones and Dallas did with this AT&T Stadium now, which might be obsolete in a couple years or a year when I'd rather optimize for the fan experience in their hand. So. That is compelling. So drill down on that. So what basically, this is what Jed, Jed will often talk about numbers like this. So the reported number, and I'm getting the second hand, I don't know for sure, but was that the Cowboys spent $70 million on that great big TV that they put in the middle of the stadium. Now. The one that ball hits when the, when the, yeah. Yeah, when you punch. Yeah, okay. Now, like any equipment you install in the stadium, that can be outdated at some point. If you look at our figure, the capacity of our stadium is about 70,000. Now you look in the Bay Area, about every year and a half, people here spend about $1,000 on mobile devices, iPads, mobile equipment, all that stuff. You do the math on that. Assuming every fan has a mobile device. So a little bit of license there, but 70,000 times a thousand bucks, that's $70 million. So our fans are investing $70 million in hardware every year and a half. Cowboys did it once with that TV. So what we're counting on is we're counting on the fans to bring the hardware they need. We're looking to ride that consumer electronics curve. Instead, what we're doing is we're building a software platform to deliver services to those devices. That's what we're doing. Well, it's a really interesting point because you've got to be able to stay nimble. Yes. You've got to be able to adapt to the new things that consumers, in your case, fans want and how they want to consume it. So maybe expand on that. So one is to basically deliver the services on the devices they want to use. But what are some other ways that you're trying to maintain some level of flexibility? I mean, you're building a brick and steel building. Yes. You can't change that, but how do you stay flexible and adapt to it? Well, so that's a great question. So what we're doing, the application and the mobile devices, that's the hero, that's what you hear about a lot. But what we're doing really to maintain this flexibility and to build things out is we're building a platform that integrates all the systems in the stadium from access and ticketing to point of sale devices to content creation and distribution, others in the future. We build APIs into those platforms. That goes into our platform. And that platform does two things. It exposes functionality to mobile applications in a clean, modern way and creates data for the enterprise in order to more effectively manage the operation. So as new capabilities come into the stadium or as we think about new services, we might bring in some new equipment. That isn't going to change what's already operating. That will integrate into the back end and will already have the capability to take the mobile application and extend it through that API as well as capture the data. So think about it like a platform that extracts away all those differences. Yeah, so one other thing I wanted to go back to, you mentioned getting that 360 degree view of the fan. Yes. And in the enterprise world, beyond sports, companies have been trying to get a 360 degree view of their customers for ages. That's the age old problem. Can you give some advice to your counterparts in other fields out there who are struggling with that? They've got data sources coming in, new data sources coming online. They've got silo data sources. How do you go about actually making that a reality? And is that more than just a technical question? Well, actually, I think there's probably a couple different parts. I think that you're right. There are plenty of enterprises that have tried to get that customer 360. And what I tell you is that, once again, I feel like we're coming along at the right time. There's a lot of data technology that's out there now today. A lot of it available based on open source platforms that we're taking advantage of to collate all this data. And so I feel like we're kind of coming along at the right time. And we're coming along at a time when I think professional sports executives are a lot more data minded now. They want- And real time. And real time, yeah. So they're a lot more mindful of that right now. So we have this willing appetite to both invest and consume in this data. I think what we really haven't seen yet though, is just how this data is going to be harnessing used across the enterprise. One of the things that I hear when I talk to team executives, not just to the 49ers, but other teams, is that they really want to use big data. They really want the fan 360, but they're not quite sure what they're going to do with it quite yet. So I think we still have a lot to learn. So Doug, let's talk about old technology. Bill Belichick would go in the stands with his camera. Yeah. Spy gate, well documented. What's to keep you guys from installing secret cameras in the stadium? Is there NFL all over this? Is there restrictions on the NFL around camera usage because of the spy gate situation? I couldn't recite all of them, but I know that one of the things that the NFL does, like every other league, is try to maintain that kind of competitive parity and make sure that that kind of thing isn't happening. So you're going to be talking like this the whole time? Well, that's why we do this, yeah. So not sure I could comment other than the NFL seems to be pretty on top of that. So you guys, you guys kind of watch that, but technically you could install some magical cameras and figure that out, zoom in on the playbook. But now they have all kinds of different signs. I can't confirm or deny. Doug, thanks for coming on the queue. I'll give you the final word. Vision for the future, what's your take on it? You know, Gideon, you X Facebook, Jed is very young guy, smart, young organization. Obviously the winning attitude you see from Jim Harbaugh, all through the organization. John Paul, another friend working with you on this mission project. You guys get technology. Yes. The future's bright. What do you think is going to happen? What's your prediction? Not to say specifically, but what's the future going to look like in five years from now for the Niners? What do you see the world unfolding into? Well, clearly I see us winning on the team, winning on the field with a great team that we have. You know, we talked a little bit about Big Data, Prog Morate, our COO, harnesses that big data all the time. And so things like time in the pocket, things like one of the statistically significant success factors of teams is less turnover. It's why you see us working so hard to re-sign players and coaches who are already with the team because it's been statistically proven that that produces winners. So we're already harnessing that data. Now what you're seeing the team do is harness technology to create a great fan experience. I think there's going to be something we do at Levi's that's going to be like that diamond vision screen out here. I was talking with Peter Uberoff, ex-commissioner of Major League Baseball, well-known business guy, head of the 1984 LA Olympics. And as I was telling him about what we're doing at Levi's Stadium, he said, you know, I can't say that I'm a huge user of mobile, but I do know this. It sounds an awful lot like when we were putting in the first diamond vision screen at Dodger Stadium. Everybody looked at it and said, man, it looks like you guys are going to a lot of effort to put that in a lot of money. Are you sure the fans really need it? And after the first season, every stadium said, we got to have one of those. So that's what we hope. Got to have one of those. And again, got to make better play calling on the one-yard line. Harboff, you're watching. You know, we love you. Please punch it in next time. Doug, seriously, thanks for coming on theCUBE, special broadcast. It's been a special broadcast of theCUBE here live at AT&T Park for big data in sports. Data SV, thanks for watching. And that's it for here. And that's a wrap here at AT&T Park. Thanks for watching.

What students were ultimately being asked to do was to think that their textbook is a living, breathing document, that they have some ability to edit and to challenge in some ways. They frequently wanted to add more of what Lieutenant Cowley had said in his testimony. They were interested in looking at what the Vietnamese people saw that day. They felt that the textbook left out the voice of the villagers as to what they had witnessed. And by the end of the lesson, they were including information about the American public. They understand the importance of primary sources as to being able to construct some meaning from the people who were there or the people who took photographs of events. Students like to hear those voices and like to see those photos and hear those diary entries or whatever it might be. And primary sources have a way of making history for students a little less tidy than they would like. And I think that's good. That's challenging what they are thinking about and what they believe to be true. The focus on historical thinking skills has certainly helped build better understanding of history and made them more critical thinkers about the world around them, I think.

Good afternoon and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. So, ladies and gentlemen, the Vice President and I are very pleased to welcome you to our press conference. We'll now report on the outcome of today's meeting of the Governing Council, which was also attended by the President of the Eurogroup, Mr. Dyselblum, and by the Commission Vice President, Mr. Dombrovskis. Based on our regular economic and monetary analysis, we decided to keep the key ECB interest rates unchanged. We continue to expect them to remain at the present levels for an extended period of time and well past the horizon of our net asset purchases. Regarding non-standard monetary policy measures, we confirmed that from January 2018, we intend to continue to make net asset purchases under the asset purchase programme at a monthly pace of €30 billion until the end of September 2018, or beyond if necessary and in any case, until the Governing Council sees a sustained adjustment in the path of inflation consistent with its inflation aim. If the outlook becomes less favourable or if financial conditions becoming consistent with further progress towards a sustained adjustment in the path of inflation, we stand ready to increase the asset purchase programme in terms of size and or duration. The Euro system will reinvest the principal payments for maturing securities purchased under the asset purchase programme for an extended period of time after the end of its net asset purchases and in any case for as long as necessary. This will contribute both to favourable liquidity conditions and to an appropriate monetary policy stance. Our monetary policy decisions have preserved the very favourable financing conditions that are still needed for sustained return of inflation rates towards levels that are below but close to 2%. The incoming information including our new staff projections indicates a strong pace of economic expansion and a significant improvement in the growth outlook. The strong cyclical momentum and the significant reduction of economic slack give grounds for greater confidence that inflation will converge towards our inflation aim. At the same time, domestic price pressures remain muted overall and have yet to show convincing signs of a sustained upward trend. An ample degree of monetary stimulus therefore remains necessary for underlying inflation pressures to continue to build up and support headline inflation developments over the medium term. This continued monetary support is provided by the additional net asset purchases that we decided on at our October monetary policy meeting by the sizable stock of acquired assets and the forthcoming reinvestments and by our forward guidance on interest rates. Let me now explain our assessment in greater detail starting with economic analysis. The economic expansion in the Euro area continued in the third quarter of 2017 when real GDP increased by 0.6% quarter on quarter after 0.7% in the second quarter. The latest data and survey results point to solid and broad-based growth momentum. Our monetary policy measures which have facilitated the deleveraging process continue to support domestic demand. Private consumption is underpinned by ongoing employment gains which are also benefiting from past labor market reforms and by rising household wealth. Business investment continues to strengthen on the back of very favorable financing conditions, rising corporate profitability and strengthening demand. Housing investment has also risen further over recent quarters. In addition, Euro area exports are being supported by the broad-based global expansion. This assessment is broadly reflected in the December 2017 Euro system staff macroeconomic projections for the Euro area. These projections foresee annual rate GDP increasing by 2.4% in 2017, 2.3% in 2018, 1.9% in 2019, 1.7% in 2020. Compared with the September 2017 ECB staff macroeconomic projections, the outlook for real GDP growth has been revised up substantially. Risks surrounding the Euro area growth outlook remain broadly balanced. On the one hand, the strong cyclical momentum underpinned by continued positive developments in sentiment indicators could lead to further positive growth surprises in the near term. On the other hand, downside risks continue to relate primarily to global factors and developments in foreign exchange markets. According to Eurostar's flash estimate, Euro area annual HICP inflation was 1.5% in November, up from 1.4% in October. At the same time, measures of underlying inflation have moderated somewhat recently, in part owing to special factors. Looking ahead on the basis of current future prices for oil, annual rates of headline inflation are likely to moderate in the coming months, mainly reflecting base effects in energy prices before increasing again. Underline inflation is expected to rise gradually over the medium term, supported by our monetary policy measures, the continuing economic expansion, the corresponding absorption of economic slack, and rising wage growth. This assessment is also broadly reflected in the December 2017 Euro system staff macroeconomic projections for the Euro area, which foresee annual HICP inflation at 1.5% in 2017, 1.4% in 2018, 1.5% in 2019, and 1.7% in 2020. Compared with September 2017 ECB staff macroeconomic projections, the outlook for headline HICP inflation has been revised up, mainly reflecting higher oil prices and higher food prices. Turning to the monetary analysis, Broad Money M3 continues to expand at a robust pace with an annual rate of growth of 5% in October 2017 from 5.2% in September, reflecting the impact of the ECB's monetary policy measures and the low opportunity cost of holding the most liquid deposits. Accordingly, the narrow monetary aggregate M1 continued to be the main contributor to Broad Money Growth, expanding at an annual rate of 9.4% in October after 9.8% in September. The recovery in the growth of loans to the private sector observed since the beginning of 2014 is proceeding. The annual growth rate of loans to non-financial corporations increased to 2.9% in October 2017 after 2.4% in September. With the annual growth rate of loans to households remained stable at 2.7%. The past through of the monetary policy measures put in place since June 2014 continues to significantly support borrowing conditions for firms and households, access to financing, notably for small and medium-sized enterprises and credit flows across the euro area. To sum up, a cross-check of the outcome of the economic analysis with the signals coming from the monetary analysis confirmed the need for an ample degree of monetary accommodation to secure a sustained return of inflation rates at levels that are below but close to 2%. In order to reap the full benefits from our monetary policy measures, other policy areas must contribute decisively to strengthening the longer-term growth potential and reducing vulnerabilities. The implementation of structural reforms in all euro-era countries needs to be substantially stepped up as these resilience reduce structural unemployment and boost euro-era productivity and growth potential. Regarding fiscal policies, the increasingly solid and broad-based expansion strengthens the case for rebuilding fiscal buffers. This is particularly important in countries where government debt remains high. These countries would benefit from intensifying efforts towards achieving a more growth-friendly composition of public finances. A full, transparent and consistent implementation of the stability and growth pact and of the macroeconomic imbalance procedure over time and across countries remains essential to increase the resilience of the euro-era economy. The strengthening economic and monetary union remains a priority. The governing council welcomes the ongoing discussions on completing the Banking Union and the Capital Markets Union and on further enhancing the institutional architecture of our economic and monetary union. And now we are at your disposal for questions. Miss Locke, in the front row, Miss Locke. Mr. Draghi, given that you see inflation at 1.7% in 2020, do you consider that sufficient progress on inflation in the medium term, and does that in any way affect your current plans for the asset purchase program? And my second question is on the corporate sector purchases. You said in October that they would remain sizable, and were any further details decided in that regard, and could you clarify whether that might mean that we will see the same amount of corporate bonds being purchased or will simply the proportion in the overall program be higher? Thank you. Thank you. The answer to the second question is I can't elaborate. It will remain sizable. We haven't discussed that today. So the terms of language will remain the same as last time. On the first question, by and large, the overall discussion today reflected the increasing confidence that we have in the convergence of inflation towards a self-sustained inflation path in the medium term and towards our objectives. Generally speaking, the growth news are very positive. I can't elaborate on that. So all in all, the revision in the macroeconomic projections goes in the right direction. Thank you. Ms Weisbach. Mr Draghi, Annette Weisbach from CNBC. A follow-up question on when do you reckon will you give us more of an idea of how the QE program or the asset purchase program will look like after September? There's much speculation it could be as late as July, perhaps June, perhaps you already have a vision or an idea. The second question would be on whether you had in the governing council or yourself thoughts about what it means that the ultra-low monetary policy stance is most likely still in place when we see the economy cooling down once again, meaning that you could be left with not a lot of ammunition as a central bank to counter an economic downturn, i.e., reduced trend of inflation. What's your idea here? Thank you. Thank you. The second question I can answer that we haven't discussed that. Frankly, it doesn't seem likely today. It actually seems, in a sense, it seems to be even more remote possibility that it would have been a year ago or even six months ago. But on the other point, really, if we go through the statement I just made, just let me just go step by step. First of all, the forward guidance on interest rate is unchanged. We say we continue to expect interest rates to remain at the present level for extended period of time and well past the horizon of our net asset purchases. Second, we confirm that from January 2018 we intend to continue to make the net asset purchase under the asset purchase program at a monthly pace of 30 until the end of September 2018 or beyond if necessary and in any case until the governing council sees, et cetera. So there isn't any change in the language or intentions. Third, quite important, the euro system will reinvest the principal payments from maturing securities purchased for an extended period of time after the end of the net asset purchases and in any case as long as necessary. And then we add the considerations on inflation even though situation on growth has improved and by the way, will continue to improve, has improved more than expected and will continue to improve. That's what the old sentiment indicators say and also our projections, our staff's projections say. The news on inflation is remain somewhat muted. We say price pressures remain muted and yet to show convincing signs on a sustained upward trend. So an ample degree of conclusion is an ample degree of monetary stimulus therefore remains necessary for underlying inflation pressures to continue to build up and support headline inflation developments over the medium term. So no change all throughout. Mr. Sims. Thank you. Tom Sims for Reuters. Did you discuss cutting the link in your guidance between the APP and inflation and what is your view on that question? And secondly, on the 1.7% inflation prognosis, do you maintain what you said last year that 1.7% is not really in line with the target? So the, first of all, we didn't discuss cutting the link. It's, that was not discussed. We, here, you see, but it's probably worthwhile spending a word on that. As the economic, as you noticed, we haven't used the word recovery. We use the word expansion. As the economic expansion gains further strength and keeps on broadening, naturally, naturally the stimulus will come, and we said that in the introductory statement, we come from all the elements of the package. And therefore, as a consequence, also the component of coming from the forward guidance of interest rates will gain further and further importance. So this is a natural process led by the recovery. In this sense, our monetary policy accompanies the recovery as I had chance to say in a speech some time ago. But we haven't discussed the cutting the link. No, we aren't there. And now the other point is 1.7. Well, see, it's, we defined the answer is it's close but below 2% and but it's not as how close is it? The issue here is more how strong is the convergence path towards a self sustained and sustainable inflation rate which is close but below 2% in the medium term. And the developments that we are witnessing on the real economy certainly increase our confidence for an output gap that will get closed in the course of the next year. And improving conditions in the labor markets which in due time should increase pressure or nominal wages as you know that has been one of the variables we've been looking as one of the drivers of the underlying inflation and therefore one of the drivers for sustained progress in headline inflation. Mr. Witz? Given the Chris Enfitz from Market News, given the favorable economic outlook and also given the revisions for growth which is significant which you mentioned, will you permanently review the APP while it is running or are the volumes and duration of the program let's say carved in stone at least until September next year? My second question is also on the APP, has there been again a discussion today about the open-ended design of the APP? Thank you. Yes, actually it's one question really. The program has been designed, discussed, designed and decided upon a month and a half ago. Today the issue was not discussed at all. That is what stands in place both as far as the size, the volumes, the timing and the open-ended of the program. Mr. Jaakisch? Klaus an Jaakisch at the German Television, Mr. President, the Federal Reserve yesterday increased the interest rates again and it looks like that it is going to happen again very soon and apparently more rapid than we all thought which means that the gap between the interest rates in Europe and in America becomes more and more wider. Isn't the governing council concerned that this might have quite significant effects and negative effects for the European economy and secondly touching again on the inflation outlook given the really robust economy at the moment and having in mind the discussions you had in Sintra over the last three years about the reasons of low inflation and now looking at the new projections, is it really very likely that we will see the 2% in the foreseeable future again? Thank you. Thank you. On the first question, the difference in the monetary policy decisions and therefore in the interest rates decisions that were taken on the other side of the ocean reflects the different positions of the two areas in the economic recovery. Economic recovery in the United States is at the present time, by the way, stronger in Europe than in the United States but the stage at which the economic recovery is in the United States is more advanced and especially so when we look at the wages behavior, the nominal wages behavior. So the monetary policy does reflect differences in the stage at which the two jurisdictions, the two areas are. The other question you asked is whether this affects negatively the European economy. We haven't seen any effect from this meaning that the present constellation of rates by and large reflects the differences in the stage at which the two economies are. So that is the... Now, about whether we are confident whether we'll reach our objective, the answer is certainly today more than we were two months ago. That is certainly so. It's pretty clear that the strengthening of the economy is the basis upon which the output gap will close, the labor market conditions will improve and we discuss this exactly in Sintra and in other places how in the end the wages will react to this improving conditions in the labor market in spite of the many factors that I've discussed in Sintra and these factors are there. There's no question they are there, but by and large they tend to be factors that will disappear with the negative effect of these factors will disappear with the continuing improvement in the labor market. Thank you. Mr. Malin. Jan Malin, Hannitz-Bert. Mr. President, some of your colleagues have expressed confidence, like Mr. Curie or Mr. Weidmann or Mr. Knott have expressed confidence that the asset purchases will end in September. Do you share their view? And my second question, the ECB has also bought Steinhoff bonds last summer and the company is now in trouble. Do you take any consequences for the APP because of that or are you investigating to take consequences? Thank you. Thank you. Well, the Governing Council, we didn't discuss this today, by the way, but last discussion we had a month and a half ago showed that the Governing Council, its authority wants to keep to retain the open-endedness feature of the asset purchase program as it's been designed in the last Monetary Policy Council. So that's the answer to the first point and it's motivated by basically the fact that in spite of the significant improvement in the real economy, in GDP growth, in the labor market and frankly in all sentiment indicators, in all business confidence, consumer confidence indicators, in all production PMIs indicators, we see this momentum continuing unabated and broadening its scope. In spite of this, the decision is justified by the fact that on the inflation side, our mandate is defined in terms of price stability. So ultimately that is our yardstick and because of that basically the Governing Council wants to maintain a steadfast commitment to price stability in keeping, in retaining the open-endedness of the program. Your second point about the bonds, first of all, let me say that this program, this program is one of our policy tools that we consider important, very important for the attainment of our mandate. The scope of the program is not to maximize profits or to avoid losses. So let's keep this in mind. Having said that, running such big corporate programs, it's not unusual that losses may be, may be happening. By the way, all other central banks that ran similar programs, do we know whether they had losses or not? No, because they're not disclosing the issuers, the issuers, the volumes, the holdings. They're disclosing very, very little. So if anything, we are different because we are much, much more transparent about our program. So what we did, by the way, let me also say that we are consulting with the governing council so I cannot elaborate a lot about what we're going to do next. Certainly we have a risk framework which has served very, very well since the beginning of the existence of the ECB. And certainly if we need to draw lessons, we'll certainly draw lessons from this experience. We are always open to improve, but as I said, it's been very, very good. Also, as soon as we got news, we stopped. We stopped buying. So we did basically what was required from us to do and also let me add that the losses that have been reported are by and large exaggerated by a factor of 10 with respect to the actual measure of the losses. But having said that, having said all this, the losses are there. They are not realized. And so the issue is who's going to pay for these losses? And the answer is that these losses really represent a small digit factor number of our 1.6 billion net interest income we produced last year. Thank you. Miss Jones? Hi, Jones, Financial Times. So just to follow up to that answer on this time of debt, is the consideration at the moment about selling your holding of the debt? And for the second question, I'd just like to clarify your answer to the question about whether 1.7% inflation is good enough because you seem to be saying that if the output gap closes as we expect and the recovery continues as we expect, then 1.7% is in fact good enough. Would that be a fair reading of your assessment? It wouldn't be a fair reading and our objective is an inflation rate close but below 2%, which does, by the way, it doesn't mean that it has to be... It can go over 2% and come back. We're talking about in the medium term. Let's never forget that. And it has self-sustainable and self-sustained, namely, has to be there without our monetary policy support. So it's quite early before we talk about changing our monetary policy support though in the presence of an expansion which is gaining momentum, our confidence towards this objective is actually increasing, as I said before. It's certainly greater than it was in the last monetary policy meeting. On the first point, that's what I meant whether I cannot elaborate more when I answered before because we are consulting with the rest of the governing council. Mr Foulis. Tom Foulis from the Wall Street Journal. The recovery in the Eurozone has been going on for four and a half years, now almost five years. And your balance sheet is still expanding and interest rates are expected to stay below zero for the next year or two. Are you concerned that when the next recession arrives you might be hampered by having too few tools to address that? Is that something that enters into your calculations? And the second question is on the US tax reform. Some European politicians have complained that it discriminates against foreign companies. Have you any thoughts about how the tax reform, as it stands, might impact the Eurozone, might impact investments in Europe and whether there's an unfair element to it? Thanks. Thank you. As far as your second question is concerned, I can't really answer because the answer is we haven't discussed it. And we'll also have to, at some point, we'll certainly look into the overall tax package and we'll come out with assessments. Don't forget that taxation is not in the realm of our competences. But certainly in order to assess whether this is going to have an impact on the European economy, we will certainly look into this. But we haven't done it yet. On your first point, it does echo a previous question. At this point in time, this is, I would say, something which the likelihood of which is very, very small. But the issue is important. The issue is, more generally, one of policy space. Do we have policy space in case something unforeseen, unlikely, happens? But the issue of policy space doesn't concern only the monetary policy. It concerns, first and foremost, the need to make our economies more resilient to unforeseen events which cannot be dealt with by anti-secular policies or by monetary policies. So, first and foremost, we say this. We've said it so many times at the end of the introductory statement, this appeal to structural reforms. That's what we should aim at. And second, the fiscal policy space is also very limited to cope with sudden downturns. And that's why we are pleading for rebuilding fiscal buffers using the benefits of this economic expansion. Mr. Melli. Thank you. Alessandro Melli with Sullivan-Tiquatore. You've restated that the outlook is dependent on your ample support from monetary policy. Do you feel that over the past few months this dependency has decreased, that the expansion, as you call it, has become less dependent on the support from your monetary policy? That's my first question. My second question is, Chair Yellen just ended their mandate in interest rates increase. Do you see yourself, although it's still quite some time away, raising interest rates before you go? Well, the answer to the second question is I cannot say how I see myself. But silly, if we are to raise interest rates, it would be a good news all in all, because it would mean that we are back on a path to an inflation rate which is self-sustained and sustainable through the medium term. The answer to your first question is whether this is a yes. Our monetary policy has accompanied, first the recovery, and now is accompanying the expansion of the eurozone economy. And as the recovery was gaining strength and breadth, the nominal amount of monetary accommodation has gone down so much that we halved the asset purchase program monthly flows. So we took decisions to accommodate the monetary size of our monetary accommodation to the growing economy, to the economy which was previously recovering and now expanding. Mr. Koch? Eric Koch, Live Squawk News. Mr. President, there's been a lot of talk about perhaps the bond purchases and the asset purchasing going beyond September next year. There's also been some discussion about whether or not you have to change policy to make that happen at the ECB. Has that been discussed already and have you been preparing changes to the policy so you can extend the asset purchases beyond September next year? Also, what kind of discussions have you been going on within the governing council about possible bubbles in sectors in the market or the economy and how exiting the asset purchase plan could impact those bubbles? The answer to the first question is no. We haven't discussed changes. And the answer to the second question is more generally we always discuss financial stability issues and we certainly closely monitor the financial stability risks that may emerge from a situation where we had very, very low interest rates for a long period of time, abundant liquidity for a long period of time so the ground is fertile for these risks. At the same time, we are not seeing systemically important financial stability risks. We see local spots where valuations tend to be overstretched but also as soon as you ask this question, one should also ask the question, how is leverage, because the bubble is also the outcome of two components. So how is leverage behaving? And there, differently from other parts of the world, we don't see leverage for the private sector going up as for the whole of the eurozone. As a matter of fact, debt continues to, debt to GDP or debt to value added or debt to assets depending on the measure, reality continues to decrease with different intensity, of course, depending on the measure. So we don't see the other component, even in those local situations. Now, of course, we go through different markets and we assess whether the markets are closer or not to develop a financial stability situation. So there are markets where valuations have been more stretched than others. And then we ask ourselves, what is the right answer to this problem? And the right answer is, have in place macro prudential instruments that are effective, strong, and well-targeted to cope with these risks. Certainly it's not to change monetary policy because of a financial stability risk in a certain part or in a certain market of the eurozone. Mr. Madelein? I'm Timo Madelein with the French newspaper Lysico. Germany hasn't had a government, a proper government for the last three months and may well not have any until March or April. You mentioned completing the banking union in your statement. How confident are you that considering this lack of political stability in the biggest eurozone economy, the European Union will be able to complete the banking union this year? I think your question identifies the real problem we have in a part of the world where democracy exists. So with democracy you have elections, with elections you have governments that need to be formed and the citizens of this part of the world take the time that's necessary to form a government that is stable and effective. So we have our views about what should be done about the eurozone, but of course we are entirely in the hands of the citizens of Europe to decide how to pursue these views in a democratically accepted fashion. So it's not in our hands to decide the timing and to some extent even the shape. We have our views, we think technically what it should be done in order to make our economic and monetary union stronger than it is today, but how and how fast this would be achieved, it's not in our hands. Mr. Georgakopoulos? Stefanos Georgakopoulos, Deutsche Welle. Mr. President, do you expect another fourth adjustment programme for Greece? And if not, how will be the liquidity of the Greek banks be insured? And my second question, would you like to comment on the legal prosecutions of the former chief of the Greek statistical authority Andreas Georgiu, as well as three members of the Hellenic asset development fund? Thank you. Thank you. On the first question, it's entirely in the hands of the government to decide about the fourth programme. If the Greek economy has fragilities that need to have a programme to be addressed it will be up to them to decide. And as well what you asked about liquidity of the banks liquidity, what we've seen in the past few years is that liquidity is a consequence of the economic policies that are being pursued by the governments, by the authorities and the reception that markets give to these policies. And so they do depend ultimately on the economic policies. On the other point was about, I'm sorry, what was the other question? The legal proceedings. Oh, the legal procedures, yeah. We've made, I should say, I should speak for the ECB only, but we've made this point on and on and on throughout the Euro groups in all institutional setups and all this. The independence, the independence of the statistical institutions and their people is of the essence for the credibility of the data which form the basis upon which economic policies are designed, accepted, presented and financed in the specific case of grace. So all actions that tend to undermine this credibility are certainly not to be shared or agreed by the ECB and the governing council. Now all this has been said in full respect of the independence of judiciary of every country, of course. Thank you. Thank you. The first one is on your risk assessment. You today again emphasized that the risks surrounding the Euro area growth outlook remain broadly balanced. What about the risk to the inflation outlook, to the medium term inflation outlook? You know, up until 2014, the governing council in its statement always gave a separate risk assessment for the inflation outlook. If you had to do so today, what would you say are the risks to the downside? Are they also balanced? Are they to the upside? And the other one, in October you've indicated that there will be, after September 2018, in any case, a kind of tapering. No sudden stop to QE. It seems no sudden stop to QE after September. It seems as if this was not discussed on the governing council at that time. Did you discuss it today and would you stick to your wording that there will be no sudden stop? Thank you. Thank you. Now, the risk to the inflation, we can safely say that deflation risks have disappeared. And so that's what we can safely say. We can also safely say that the likelihood of having the low inflation in the 0.5, 0.6 that we've seen until, what, a year ago, has certainly decreased. But I don't think we can go beyond that, frankly. We cannot go beyond that. We see that the muted response of wages to the improving conditions in the market, in the labor markets, and more generally to the closing of the output gap, is somewhat of a, if compared with other recoveries and economic expansions is way, way slower than we had in the past. So this cautions about, while our confidence that things are going definitely better also on the inflation front, that cautions us from making bold statements about the fact that inflation cannot turn down and become again low for long. So we think it's certainly less probability, but I wouldn't go beyond that today. The sudden stop, I was asked about the sudden stop means that we go from 30 to zero, okay? No, we never had that. We never discussed that, period. But whether sudden stop becomes the extension of the program or becomes tapering, that's what you want to know. We haven't discussed that, too. And the final question goes to Mr. Boerndermann. Thank you. Dutch central bank president, Knaud said in a speech late November that the asset purchase program has run its course and that it should be fully phased out after September. And one of his arguments was, I quote, with GDP growth hitting levels above 2% year on year, the monetary policy stance is increasingly out of sync with the business cycle. Now, also given the substantially revised GDP projections upward, do you think he has a point? Thank you. That is not the view of the governing council. First point. Second point, our mandate is not growth. Growth is not employment. It's price stability. So we are in a condition where we have to infer from the strength of the growth momentum and the improvement in the labor markets what's going to be the ultimate effect on the objective that defines our mandate, which is the inflation rate. And we qualify this objective in saying that the process towards converging, the process of convergence of this inflation rate to our objective has to be, before we can remove the ample monetary support, has to be self-sustained, i.e. not in need to be supported by our monetary policy. So that's the yardstick. And that's where we are today and that's why we always talk about the response of the nominal wages to improving conditions because that's what we have to understand well, namely the response of nominal wages growth to and the reasons why such responses is lagging down. Thank you. Thank you very much.

secret agent K-7 returns America's number one adventurer K-7 form a United States secret agent who operated in 22 countries on land on sea and in the air brings you a story of today here is K-7 spies and secret agents play an extremely important role in today's diplomacy through espionage aggressor nations often learn of troop movements and naval plans before they can be put into operation armed with this secret knowledge pirate nations have even seized small countries and set up protectants while those great powers that would stand in their paths are otherwise engaged such is the background of several of the unexpected moves that have shocked the world my story tells of one such plot that failed John Holbrook introduces it thank you K-7 recently a newspaper headlines have told of fleet movements under sealed orders such a transfer of battleships was recently planned by a great power in the interest of world peace however the spies of a pirate nation almost stole the orders before they were issued our story opens as a master spy issues orders to an accomplice hello listen to me carefully I am outside the naval intelligence building sealed orders for the fleet have just been issued you have them no Admiral goreley leaves with them in a few minutes bring the car here and pick me up we've got to hit him off and start right away hurry we have a much time two minutes later the two plotters for tear and his assistant sat in their car a few hundred yards from the naval intelligence building sealed orders have been issued for the fleet the admiral will leave the intelligence building soon and take the orders to the naval base then the fleet will leave we've got to know where it's headed what are your plans as soon as he leaves we'll follow his car it's a sharp curve about a half mile down the road we'll come alongside and force him into the ditch you will drive what happens then we'll get the admiral into this car and take him to our rooms he isn't about the drugging get ready this car all right after him I'll take him leaving with the wreck speed up covers only a little way ahead all right pull alongside force him off the road there's a ditch at the side the admiral's wrecked car and his driver were found at the side of the road however the admiral had disappeared at the very moment the driver was being transferred to a hospital the admiral was being carried into a house in a disreputable section of the city all right put him there on the floor he will sleep for at least three hours you think he's all right it's just knocked out I gave him a drug to make sure he doesn't come to before we got his plans copied when we leave him here no wait until I get his briefcase open here at the secret orders we'll have to steam them open and we'll copy them and take the admiral and his orders to the hospital to the hospital certainly we don't want naval intelligence to know these plans have been seen by anyone as soon as we have copied them I'll take the admiral to the hospital and say that I found him in the road don't you see they'll think the accidents stunned him come on get out the tap rather we've got to make a copy fast after the accident special agent M was called into the case with his assistant Ivan he went immediately to the hospital to interview the injured man who had driven the admiral's car Dr. Reinhardt is wanted in surgery B Ivan we've been here almost half an hour unless they let me talk to the driver soon his information won't help us much on this she's gone on down the whole have you any idea what happened him no the admiral left the naval intelligence building with the sealed orders 10 minutes later his car was found wrecked in a ditch the driver had been struck with some blunt instrument the admiral was missing do you think they were attacked yes it looked that way I've got to get started we're wasting time oh here comes the doctor special agent waiting to talk with the injured driver of admiral Gourlet's car yes can I see him you can see him for a few minutes follow me wait here Ivan I won't be gone long Dr. Reinhardt is wanted in surgery B Dr. Reinhardt is wanted in surgery B Dr. Reinhardt M disappeared into an emergency room down the hallway as he passed from sight a man entered the hospital carrying the admiral give me doctor he's coming back up the whole now doctor yes what is it doctor this man just carry the admiral in I found him walking along the road he stumbled and fell I put him in my car and brought him here looks like he's been in an accident we'll put him on this bench and call an intern to help me he was carrying this briefcase with him I leave it he looks badly injured he'll be alright here in the hospital you take care of him I've got to wait come back oh gone admiral admiral can you hear me where is the man who brought him in he just ran out the door doctor take care of the admiral and see that the special agent who came with me gets this briefcase tell him that I'll tell it on him here in a few minutes I'm ready to follow that man he von ran out of the hospital in time to see Fortier's car turn a corner he climbed into a taxi and issued an order follow that car that just turned the corner don't lose sight of it Fortier went back to his headquarters unaware that he was being followed Yvonne saw him park his car and enter a house she entered a small grocery store nearby and asked for a telephone yes madam have you a telephone oh thank you I didn't see it hello get me the city hospital and hurry hello let me speak to the special agent to his there yes that's right hello em this is Yvonne you know what happened yes well I followed the man who brought the admiral in his car parked across the street now can you come I'm near the dock it's River's end I'll wait for you hurry is there anything wrong mademoiselle no no nothing give me a pound of granulated sugar hurry Yvonne went to the corner and waited for him almost as he arrived the spies Fortier and Grisanti came out of the house across from the grocery store and drove away I've got to get these secret orders across the border before the fleet sails you're plenty of gasoline yes the tank is full then we should be at the border within an hour drive carefully so you're out of the city a few minutes later the two spies rushed toward the border and drive faster this isn't a pleasure trip I can't seem to go faster you mean this car would go faster than 40 miles an hour I've driven a 70 myself from the border is not running well Fortier look behind us that car is still there you think we're being followed it is the same one that followed us out of the city I thought we lost him we've got to go faster you're out of gasoline you fool and stay here I'm going to run for it yes and I recognized him Yvonne that man has bought a spy keep the other one covered I am going after him don't try to move stay right where you are why should I run I have done nothing he hired me to dive your front vendors are damaged did he also hire you to run the admiral's car off the road keep your hands in the wheel I can see them I won't move your friend he's coming back alone all right Yvonne we'll go out of the next town Fortier had the admiral's plans I've got them now we'll have to report to the local police you shot him I had to I'll drive this car you follow with ours and wait you can't drive that car while I was waiting for you I poured granulated sugar into the gas tank I was afraid they'd get away before he came you told me sugar would choke a motor Yvonne you did that do you realize that sugar may have prevented a war if we hadn't caught these two the secret orders of the fleet would have been known and war would have followed that night the newspapers in a hundred world capitals called out the same headlines sales and that secret orders read all about it because a great nation's fleet thus got underway it arrived off the coast of a country that might otherwise have been doomed however if its destination had been known before the warships sailed this story might easily have become another black page in history listen for my next story this is K7 speaking

In a function, every input has a unique output, but in most cases, the relationship between input and output is too complicated to write. For example, the amount of time needed to complete a surgery is a function of the patient's health, the surgeon's skill, and the complexity of the operation, and the formula for the amount of time is... I don't have any idea. And this reflects a general rule of life. We are not so lucky that functions just fall out of the sky and hit us on the head. So, if we're very, very, very, very lucky, we'll get a function defined by a formula. And remember, no matter how awful the formula looks, it's better to have a formula than to not have a formula. And that means we'll have to learn how to work with them. So let's try to find the domain of f of x equals 8 minus 7x. So remember, the domain is a set of all possible input values. What can we put into this function? Well, let's think about it. The function requires us to take a value of x, then multiply it by 7, and subtract the result from 8. So what can we do that to? Well, certainly we can multiply any number by 7, and this will give us some number. But no matter what the product is, we can subtract the product from 8. And so the domain is all real numbers. Any real number can be input into this function. So we can write our domain in interval notation. x can be any number between minus infinity and positive infinity. How about a more complicated function? So again, let's think about what we do to an input value. Our input value is squared, multiplied by 3, and then these results are subtracted. So what can we do these operations to? We can do these operations to any real number. And so, since any real number can be squared, multiplied by 3, added, and subtracted, then our domain is all real numbers. More generally, this leads to the following results. Since any real number can be raised to a whole number of power, multiplied, added, or subtracted, that essentially describes any polynomial. And so we have the theorem, if f is a polynomial function, its domain is all real numbers. What about non-polynomial functions? So for example, let's take h of x be the absolute value of 13x minus 27 plus 7. So let's see what happens to our input value. Our input value x is multiplied by 13, then 27 is subtracted, after which we find the absolute value, and then we add 7. But the important thing to recognize here is we can do these things to any real number. And so the domain of h of x is all real numbers.

So, a man that needs no introduction, David Heinmeyer Hanson. David, thank you again for taking time out of your day and answering questions for us. Okay, so. Sure. Where did Anthony go? I know. I can manage that. It's the only requirement that I stop browsing for 40 minutes and you have my underwrite in that queue. Right on. Alright. Anyone? Anyone? Okay. Well, I will ask a question then. I guess my first question would be, you know, we've read a lot of posts coming from both the Rails team and the Merb team. But ultimately, what was the, like the impetus? What was the impetus behind really bringing the two together? I think actually the run-up in, perhaps it's the right word, brought this on at some point. So, when the tension started really boiling back in December, it actually led us to start talking more to each other in some ways. Because we felt that the tension that was building just wasn't helpful at all. And in many ways, I thought that we were building false tension. We were fundamentally trying to do the same thing in the same way, which is evident from just how much of Merb and Rails is incredibly similar where you have almost exactly the same APIs. You have almost exactly the same goals being pursued. But that just, that led to a lot of duplication of work and led to a lot of tension in that it just felt like it was completely unnecessary. So, we started talking more to teams together and what we realized was that a lot of the tension was basically just built on the misconception that because Rails didn't necessarily do something about some of the things that the Merb guys cared about, it meant that we would never want that stuff in Rails. For example, the agnosticism that the Merb guys were really interested in pursuing was never something that was against the grain of Rails. We had one thing that we, and I had one thing that I truly cared about, which was sensible defaults and defaults for everything, that there should be one starting answer for everything in the framework. But that's not at all at odds with allowing people to take another answer if that's what they want. So, just because Rails ships would prototype, there should be absolutely no reason to discriminate against people who want to use jQuery. And I think just somehow, and that's certainly our fault and my fault and the fault of the Rails community in general, that that kind of mixed up, the fact that we have strong defaults that mixed up and conflated with the notion that prototype is the only way to do JavaScript or ActiveRecord is the only way to do ORM or whatever have you. And that's just not true at all. So, what we basically needed was just, we needed some champions. Somebody who really cared even about the agnosticism because, for example, they were using something else. They were using jQuery for JavaScript. They were using Datamab or SQL or whatever for the ORM. We just needed somebody who were willing to put into work. And there are guys that already demonstrated that they were willing to put into work. They've done a ton of this work already in the room. So, what we basically realized was since there's no real tension, there's no real conflict, we want the same things on, let's say, 95% of the base of what a framework should do. We want exactly the same thing. On the final rule, let's say 5-10%, we want different things, but the different things being different compatible things. So, why not share that base of 90-95% and then work together to ensure that the last 5-10% write as well? So, that's basically the long way around how that works. This is true. We want the same thing for the 90-95% case and we can agree on the last 5-10%. I mean, what are we wasting our time for? Let's just get this going. Let's just make this happen. And so we did. And this is where we are today. And I think so far it's been working out really well. Actually, it may be better than I had even hoped that it would. Because, I mean, there was so much tension built up that we could see, alright, we've poisoned it well, there's no way we can work together, or the communities won't gel, or quite actually. It's proven not to be true at all. We've been working with Yehuda and the rest of the team for, I think, that experience so far has been great. I mean, we find ourselves in agreement way, way more often than we find ourselves in disagreement. And when we are in disagreement, we just settle in the facts. Either you bring in a benchmark or you bring in a piece of code that demonstrates something being advantageous or not. So far so very good. My question is, is there anything coming in an upcoming version of Rails that you're really interested into the point where you're developing a lot of new code to contribute to Rails that's a brand new feature, something that you want to hint at or that's really interesting, or are you mainly working on 6s and the 3.0 integration of Merb? So, for starters, I've been mostly focused about 2-3 for now. We've just released that release candidate a few days ago, and that has been where my majority focus has been. And in that, I've worked on a fair number of those things, including the stuff that the engines set up working, because I had my own need for engines come up. I've been working on two engines, sort of apps for integration, so whatever you want to call it, two engines. One for a translation feature I was doing, some translation of base camp, and I wanted kind of an app to control those demo files. And secondly, I've been working on a Rails engine that I will have some potential for for making it into Rails 3. For Rails 3, I think one of the things that I've started to get a lot more interested in is rewit-bamping our roasts through Ajax, and not so much because it's unobtrusive as a pursuit of standards compliance or something like that. I don't think that's all that interesting. I know that there's plenty of people who care about it, and peace be with that. For me, it was more a realization of things. How could I make more stuff that I wanted to do with Japs with easy-to-do? I've just been, actually just for the past few days, working on a tiny mini app where I did that simple trick where you replace timestamps with relative systems and doing that to custom attributes. And I've been kind of interested in that whole custom attribute thing for a while, so that's one of the things that I'd like to be definitely involved in pursuing. Some of the two other things that I've been involved in has been more perhaps on the API design level. We've been talking for some time about how can we merge the router with the Rails router, and for me, I have not actually touched my implementation of what we wanted, both in verb and in Rails. It's really hard work, and as you guys know, we've been asking, so I've been taking a very keen interest in making the APIs for now pretty good, but it's definitely not perfect. There's a lot of good ideas from both the router, and from what Sinatra is doing, and from just our own approach at the suit of the best principles that can make the easier to deal with and easy to use and so on and so forth. So that will probably be a feature issue that I personally care about working on for Rails 3. Better set up for JavaScript and office system and untruesiveness and making the router. The interesting thing about work is continuing to polish. Every single time you fix something in Rails, you take away a problem, something else pops up, and they should be better. They should just be improved. It's a great pleasure being involved with something like Rails that continuously improves. You're never done. As soon as we get all the problems, we think right now are big problems for Rails, so there'll be a whole another class of problems popping up, because they're now visible, and that's just how it goes, and that's why it's so fun. I've been working on this stuff for six years, and it's time to make things nicer almost every single day that I actually sit down and work on Rails. If something about Rails is nice, this could be better, this could be changed, this could be improved. Yeah, I think that was an answer to that question. I'm actually not answering it with your next question. We decided it might be a little better if you'd actually look at the person asking the question instead of putting it to them. So we're working on that. So kind of as a follow-up, I guess there's a little bit of a build-up to it, but obviously you guys have just released 2.3 or at least released candidate 4, 2.3, and that carried middleware and a few extra things in it. And obviously to this point, we've been talking about the Merb push adding in the features for Merb toward Rails 3. So my question, and probably also later on, I think Yehuda's here, right? So I'll probably pose with him as well. Working on both frameworks, by the way, my name's Nathan Bibler. I didn't actually introduce myself to you. Working on both frameworks, they're somewhat dissimilar in the way they're set up. Obviously Merb is very formatted, structured, whereas Rails has a lot of termed magic to it. Things happen for you, which is kind of a different feeling. So going forward, migrating an application from 2.2 or 2.3 into 3, what do you see is the migration path? I know it's still early. Is it going to be more Rails oriented so that people from the Rails side are going to feel less of a change? Is it going to be a trade-off so that both sides are going to have to make adjustments? What do you feel is kind of the more heavily weighted side on that foundation, I guess? Well, it's definitely going to be a trade-off. There's definitely going to be things that you will need to change in a Rails 2.3 application to make it work with 3.0. There's no question about that. We're adopting a bunch of PADs from the Merb side of things, and some of those ideas will be backwards and compatible, which is why this is not an effort for Rails 2.1. It's an effort for Rails 3.0. With all that being said, we are basing this work on Rails components that are already there. We're evolving the Rails components to merge in the good ideas that Merb guys brought to the table. So, I mean, it's probably going to feel a little bit more like Rails stuff, but I don't really think that matters that much in these days. Merb and Rails was a lot more similar than it was this similar. So all of that stuff will continue to be. But I do think that there are some things that will remain a difference. So Rails definitely has more defaults set up already. I think that the Merb guys were already moving in that direction. There was now a stack in that kind of pulled everything together and kind of set up or put up some of these, some defaults already. So I think we're kind of in some aspects anyway. And in the aspects where they weren't, I mean in the aspects of allowing you to go into a framework without having it be painful in any way and so forth. That's the kind of stuff we're going to take into Rails. So, in some ways, I think it's going to be going to work right out for both camps, for both migration paths, because the Rails guys are going to say, alright, I'm just going to form some Rails guys of making brah and sweeping generalizations here. People coming from the Rails camp will instantly feel that setting up a new application, every single default is there. We're not going to be yanking people out. We're not going to, when you set up a new application, force you to make a lot of decisions about things. So if you just want that on the track, conventions, I'm just going to take what Rails gives me, you're right, it's going to be the same, if not even smoother. I mean, more with a, hey, I'd like to use different frameworks here for things that Rails already have people's for, kind of like more of a Merb construction in approach. We're going to fire that really easy thing earlier, where I don't think there's that much conflict to make both of these things work. The fact that there is default does not necessarily make it harder. I mean, what's important to me is that the choice is not forced upon you. The choice is optional. You make a choice when you have a specific opinion about something that you hear deeply about. And then who am I to say that your choice is good or bad? I'm totally fine with that. What I care about is setting up a framework that's incredibly easy to use for people who don't know how to make those choices yet, or are happy to make the same choices as I'm making and as we've been making in the Rails community for a long time. So I think there's very well room to fit both those approaches on, say, my move. Matt Williams. Hey. So my question, this could be very short and sweet, is when the release of Ruby 191, how are you as one of the large influences of Rails and 37 Signals as a company plan on embracing these new releases that are finally becoming a little more stable, have the speed increases? Yep. The roadmap at 37 Signals for 19 is called Jeremy Kemper. He's been the guy at 37 Signals and the Rails team in general has been really good at keeping up with 19. He's been putting in a ton of work for a very long time to make sure that Rails itself was 19-compatible. So in many ways, I'm delegating his advice on this because I have not even installed 191 or any 19 release really on my own computer and pulled around with it. So it's pretty much when I'm going to install it is when Jeremy Kemper says it's read we're good to go and you should run it. So to me, I mean, I think it's great that there's still a lot of problem going on with Ruby and I think it's awesome that they're expanding it and one-night time, wonderful in many ways. It's not going to have that huge impact on what it is that I do every day. So I just tend to say, all right, I mean, there's people who are passionate about that and following that. I don't need to follow that in that one sheet. It's basically the answer for both Rails and for Jeremy Kemper when he says it's go. It's time for me to give it a try. But I do hope that he's not the only guy in the world giving it a try. It's kind of a lonely pursuit. So it'd be awesome if everybody, at least having one person within each company or group say, hey, I'm going to give one-night time and see where it breaks. Try to get these issues published and out there before we're slapped with a stable production policy on it. I think we have some problems in the past with Ruby, especially with Ruby 187 where it just did drop in one day and it was kind of bad way. It wasn't a great smooth release. I think some of that, how many people were trying out the latest version and compiling it and testing it with their apps, similar problems that we often have. People in general just aren't very interested in trying beta releases. And we've had this problem in the past, even released candidates in Rails, which just wouldn't have enough testers. And as soon as we declare a version to be final, all these bug reports will come up because people wouldn't try it until it was final. And I mean, it's kind of chicken and egg thing. I mean, it can't be final until we have people who actually test it. And I mean, it's just like I said, I have not been keeping up. My excuse is just helping people to definitely try out Ruby on a more regular basis. So as soon as we don't have those solutions for a new version where we drop, a new version of Rails drops, and all of a sudden people find the problem just as well can be final. Hello, David. I'm Brian Lyles. Hey, Brian. I want to ask you about with the emergence of the lightweight HTTP libraries like HTTP Barney and REST Client, what really happened with Active Resource? Is there... I'm looking for compelling reasons to use Active Resource in my applications now. Sure. Yeah, I'll give you the... We actually talked about this recently. We had a small sprint in Chicago where Yehuda, Rick, and Josh and myself was president. We talked about, so what is the role of Active Resource to speak? I am a little bit closer to the answer by saying Active Resource is a very narrowly constrained solution. Active Resource is a many-way as what Active Reckon is to a database driver. So, a database driver is very adhering. You can do a lot of things via any type of SQL. Active Reckon has a much narrow focus. It relies on a greater set of connections, and it then gives you an easy write-up that Active Resource is in many ways the same way. When you're using Active Resource against a Rails application that was built on top of all those conventions, it's going to be really nice and easy to do. Active Resource today is not a great tool for generic web applications, generic press applications, things that wasn't built with Active Resource in mind, things that wasn't built on top of those conventions. So, if you're trying to integrate with some API that's RESTful, but not in any way built on top of the Rails conventions, you're probably going to have a much better time using REST Client and ACP Party. On the other hand, if you are using REST against a Rails back-end, Active Resource will be a great ride. That's all I have written about Active Resource. We use Active Resource internally in particular to integrate our applications because all our applications are Rails. So, all those conventions are already set up for us. So, I think the simple answer is if you're going to do REST against a Rails application, use Active Resource. I doubt that ACP Party and REST Client is going to be significantly easier to use than Active Resource is in that case. But, if you're using it against something else, something that wasn't written with Rails and Active Resource is open to those conventions in mind, don't feel any shame at all. REST Client and ACP Party and more low-level solutions to that. Right? There's plenty of room for both ends of the spectrum, which is in some ways kind of the similar realization that we're making with Rails. So, the default ORM in Rails is going to be Active Resource. Or Active Reckon. In Active Reckon, it's great when you have more power. You have zero power in your schema, and a lot of people can try to bend Active Reckon to fit all sorts of weird, or I shouldn't even say weird, different schemas for our ancient schemas. Sometimes it just comes to the realization Active Reckon is not going to be a great solution for all of that. There's ThinkModel, there's Datamap, there's other types of tools that works better when you don't have the luxury of having the conventions available. All of the frameworks in Rails are built to work together in the sense that you get that luxury, you get that benefit of having all those conventions. That's why we can write so little code when we can rely on all these conventions working. And that's great when that's the case. When it's not the case, but you don't have the conventions, you can feel any shame using anything else. I would. One last question. David, do you test all the fucking time? If I test? No, do you test all the fucking time? I'm not even sure how to parse that question. If I unit test everything I do, send it again? Do I unit test? No, everything I do, but if you just test, I don't care, unit, section, loving, integration, acceptance, functional. No. Okay. I know. I just wrote an entire... Oh my God. I mean, how can you even imagine constantly improving application that's been living for six years to break something when you introduce the new feature? It would just be impossible. I just wrote this tiny application to more people if there's something that's down, just a small status application, as I said, 78 lines of code. Does it make sense to test that? No. It would change very unlikely. And if it is going to change, I can do that. So in that case, testing wasn't worth it for me. But obviously worth it when I work on it. It's 10,000 lines of code. And some applications are going to live for a very short time. We're not going to be changed at all. And maybe it's not worth it. I wonder what you say that Thine isn't rocket surgery. And what I want to know is, could it be? Could Ruby and Rails be used for really next-gen flight control or launch control services for NASA? And if so, what arguments would you make to the developers that, hey, take a look at Ruby and Rails? So, I should first preface this by saying I've never built anything with that type of criticality. I've never built anything where people die if I have a bug. But from what I've heard, I've been working on software for pace makers. So for example, for this page maker, I'd be saying a line that's going to go into the software. They had an incredibly rigorous review process where they had tons of things with different people and so on and so forth. So in that scenario, I mean, you're going to hopefully get the bugs out of that system just by reviewing everything that goes into the regular system, too. It's about... We have a good idea of what all this code is doing. If the code we have for review is 2,000 lines of code, review and make sure that it's proper and correct than it is to review 20,000 lines of all the Rails stuff that you would use, and so forth, to make sure it's right. But I don't... In some ways, I think this notion of criticality can drag into it because it kind of is in the system that there's something you cannot see even though you turn it around to get super high quality to me is a process than it is about anything else. It's about making sure you have incredible test coverage. It's about making sure you have multiple people reviewing the same kind of code. There's nothing magical that makes each form platform usable for pasting. I mean, people have certainly written bugs in C or C++ code, which is what these guys were using for the base maker project. I mean, they had buffer overflows. They had all sorts of bugs to prevent it. And how did they get written all this stuff is by rigorous review and process. I think that's absolutely possible in any platform or in any field. I mean, all that being said, this is lame or not to be responsible and blow stuff the next Apollo mission or something. That's that. Because without saying, I'm going to act as a proxy for a few questions that a few other people wanted to ask. So these are just really quick questions. Maria, necessarily wanted to know that if you could only have one of the following two for the rest of your life, which would you choose cake or pie? What? Cake or pie? So if for the rest of your life you could only have one of the following two items. Would you choose cake or pie? Would you choose cake or pie? I love the rest of my life. Good, good. Jay, 10-year-old wanted to know when you were going to change your hairstyle. We're talking about this is the most timeless hairstyle there is. It's going to the next 100 years be the top of the pop. That huge age that is how it goes. So that's a never? Yes. Okay, all right. It's been any? Never. Les Allen wanted to know why you aren't following at Les Allen on Twitter. Jason knows. And although this is, this question is now moved with the announcement of Rails 3.0, myself and a bunch of other people actually really wanted to know who you thought would win in a fight. You or Yehuda. Classes. So you better come on Thanks very much. That was interesting. Does anybody else have any questions? Oh, did you see at RubyConf, which was here in Orlando, Dave Thomas did a keynote. Did you, did you see his keynote? He basically, I haven't seen it now. It was the fourth keynote. I've heard that just, yeah, it's Colin Freaks guy, got it. But basically, he talked about how he wants to see different flavors of Ruby, like a parallel Ruby or a closure Ruby, different flavors of Ruby with Rails 3.0 becoming more modular. I'm wondering, I can see how it would become more easy for people to create maybe different flavors of Rails, right? Like take an individual library, minimize it, or design it for maybe a different type of web application. I'm just curious to, if you have any thoughts on that, maybe some, you know, different flavors of Rails that you might want to see. I think that's great. I think another feature we actually have already in 2.3 that sort of makes this possible is templates. So people already have kind of like their house blend ground, which would be, wow, just a compilation of all the things that they commonly use. I think templates is really a great way of making the first step towards having your own house blend. And there's some signals we definitely have on our house blend. We have a number of plugins that we always use and kind of a process that we always use for deployment and so on. So that's the first step of doing that. I think it's great. I think people should probably share it. I mean, there might very well be that our house blend is something that somebody else would like to. For the more fundamental stuff, I absolutely think this is true as well. We should be making it really easy for people to substitute many different things of Rails. One of the concrete aspects that we recently talked a fair bit about is the router. So, there you have it. The good number of router ideas up in the air. There will definitely be one main router, one deep hole router. And this goes for all of this stuff. This is kind of like next level stuff. The house blend, your own alternative, experimenting. It's all for people who kind of reach the natural borders where Rails doesn't fit with them anymore. Most people will be very happy introducing deep holes. Anyway, so for the router, we want to make it plugable. We want to make it such that I forget who it was who was working on a new router. Prouding was in over. Was somebody else working on making a tiny router that didn't have the same number of features. But it was only two more lines per hole. And those can experiment correctly. We actually want to encourage those kinds of experiments. And if we get in Rails and make it easy for people to try it out, the same goes for for all the work that's going into agnosticism in general, to make it really easy for Rails to use another job's recovery. It shouldn't just be that, all right, right now, prototype and cake worry or kind of the big libraries. And then we just hard-code it to that and nothing else will work. Agnosticism is not just about taking the number of choices from one to two or one to three. It's about allowing anybody to come up with a new, next great idea and plug it right in. So I think it's awesome. I think I'd love to see more experimentation. And this is a lot of time for me to say about let's try it out in the plug-in. I think that's often the kind of the answer to something that seems a little off for core pollution. But it might be a really easy idea. Templates is a great example. Templates started out as somewhat of a plug-in. A lot of the good ideas have gone into Rails over the past years or many years. It started out as a plug-in. It encouraged everybody to try out crazy ideas. And that's also on monkey-patching. Very double-edged sword. On the one hand, monkey-patching allows you to basically change anything you want in Ruby, in Rails. If you monkey-patch, agreement then is that you're experimenting with stuff that is something that's radically right these things and alias that chain that thing and so on. And just realize, alright, I'm doing a disturbance. Then you go back and say, alright, I'm just gonna blow up every five minutes that the Rails guys change something into a terms of rail. So, I definitely want to get that out, too, that if you're going to go on exploration with serious experimentation and alias method changes that the other thing and overrides and so on, it's going to be crack-on. Very, very crack-on. And that's just the trade-off. I love that trail, though. I gotta say, there's been time to try out something in Ruby, Ruby's standard library or something else that requires deep monkey to go in with Verizon. For example, we've had problems with the cookie library in the Ruby standard distribution had a bug at one point and we just weren't willing to wait around until the next stable version of Ruby was released. So, we monkey-passed it right into the Rails and it worked and we pulled it out when it wasn't necessary. Two thumbs up, too. I think be careful if you do monkey-patch and it turns out to be something you want to keep across versions. It's Nathan again. I think we're in the last few minutes here, so I'm actually going to kind of change the focus, I think, of this away from the framework and more, I think, toward the application development. I mean, at this point, you've kind of, you know, at the very least have a handful of what I think all of us would term as successful applications. You know, being base camp or campfire or high-rise or something like that. You know, I think this is an open-ended question, but what do you see as the major points for developing a successful application, via the business side or the technical side or whatever you feel jumps out to you? Yeah, that's a good question. I think one is, I think one, the major points I'm going to talk about a little bit in Dublin in about a month's time or so when the future of web apps is sticking to it far too many people have ADD when it comes to their projects and it comes to their work and they think that just because they didn't have a slam dunk success in three months that that means that they are sitting on a failure. Lots of things look like a failure for a very long period of time with all attempts and success. Base camp by many, many definitions was this huge failure for the first year. We couldn't even pay our bills for the first year and we were a tiny team. So base camp, base camp failed by many other companies standard definition of failure. But of course, we stopped doing it and now five, six years into it is doing millions of dollars of revenue every year. I think that's definitely a pretty important part of it. Secondly, important part of it I think is all the applications that I've worked on the framework I've worked on everything that I've worked on and purposes. So I think it's so much easier to make a application within the field where you care. It's really hard if you have to fake caring because you're working in some industry or in some domain that you're just not really passionate about. It's very hard to pull together that excellence that's needed to break through. So working on something that you personally care about, I find this just so much easier to the point where doing anything else seems almost impossibly hard. What else would I say? Oh yeah, side projects. I don't want to people oh, I have this great idea but I'm working a day job there's no time blah blah blah blah blah. There's always time. There's always time to test it. FaceCamp was built I keep going back to this and why I do it is because I think it's most people waste 10 hours in a few days watching TV. I think something like that it was TV every day. They could have built FaceCamp just to make something that is multiple with 10, 15 hours on this. Just sacrifice some of the things that are easy to sacrifice like watching Wast which is terrible now since the second season. It's totally soft. Robert again. I'm going to steal the last question kind of piggybacking off of what Nate was talking about. One of the themes that I'm Jason and I are trying to interweave in this year's AXIS conference is really how Rails can help us as developers maintain a competitive edge. And we know of course that we can develop apps a lot faster than a lot of other languages and frameworks that are out there and whatnot. And I was just interested to hear a couple of points from you of how you think that even going forward how Rails can help us maintain our competitive edge. I think one of the most important things about the Rails community is that we have a very strong sense of caring about our tools. There's lots of other communities where the majority of the developers in there do not truly care about their tools. I think it's the right tool for the job and so on. And to me, there's been this notion of learning new language every year. Really passionate that goes kind of back to the whole notion of the ADD when it comes to project. I think lots of developers sort of also have ADD when it comes to tools. We definitely still have tons of people in the Rails community who have been with Rails for a very long time who have been keeping up their contributions to the framework and always trying to improve on that college. And I think that is a really important part of who we are. We care about the specific tool that it is that we're working with and everybody at the same time pretty sure that Rails developers in general that there's a much higher percentage of Rails developers who contribute to the common good. There's so many plumpings out there. There are so many bug reports and tutorials and documents and so on. We have a much higher proportion of contributors than consumers. We have a lot of people who are mobile. It's a great way to stay ahead. Become not just a user of something, become not just a consumer of something, actively get engaged. How can I make this work? I move forward. Just by using it, I mean, yeah, I can certainly learn something from that. I mean, I can certainly learn something and your perspective is from it. But it's only if I really try to improve that language or try to improve that environment, I really get the deep learning that just move forward. Great. Well, hey, thank you very much again for all your time. On behalf of the honest, very thorough answers, I highly appreciate it. So thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thank you guys.

राम बन्बाष से जब लोड्के गर में आए, या जंगल बहुत आया जू नगर में आए. रक से दीवान गी आंगन में जो देखा होगा, छे दिसमपर कोषी राम ने सोचा होगा, इतने दीवाने कहा से में रे गर में आए. जगमगा दे ते जहां राम के कदमों के निशां प्यार की कह कषां लेती ती आंगराई जहां, वोर नफ्रत के उसी रहे गुजर से आए. दर्म क्या उनका ता क्या जाथ ती? ये जान्ता कोन? गर नजलता तो उने रात में प्यचान्ता कोन? गर जलानी को मेरा लोग जो गर में आए. शाका हारी ते मेरे दोस तुमारे खंजर, तुमने बावर की तरफ फेखे ते सारे पट्धर, है मेरे सर की खता जक्म जो सर में आए. पाव सरजू में अभी राम ने दोए भीना दे, की नजर आए वहां खून के गहरे दबबे, पाव दोए बना सरजू के किनारे से उठे, राम ये कहते हुए अपने दूरे से उठे. राजदानी की फदा आए नहीं रास मुझे, चे दिसम्वल को मिला दूसरा वंबास मुझे.

When every method of persuasion in the thirteen years of preaching had failed, the Prophet took to the sword. The sword removed evil, mischief, the impurities of the hearts, the evilness and the filth of the soul, and also cured the people of the time of their arrogance. Dr. Wilfred Kent Will Smith states, Muhammad preached Islam with a sword in one hand and the Quran in the other. However, the critics are blind in this matter. They cannot see that the sword walled by Prophet Muhammad was the sword of mercy, compassion, friendship, forgiveness, the sword that conquers enemies and purifies the hearts. His sword was more sharper than the sword of iron or steel. This is why tonight's episode is one of the most controversial topics to be debated and discussed over multimedia. Tonight's episode is dedicated to clear up the misconceptions regarding the methods used by Islam in spreading the religion of Islam in light of the Quran, respected viewers, brothers and sisters in Islam. As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Welcome to the seventh episode of Life from Karbala, Ramadan series with me and host Ahmed Ali. Tonight's episode, as I mentioned, is very controversial. This is why my esteemed guest, Saeed Hussain Al-Qazweeni has joined us once again in tonight's episode, to clear up these misconceptions. Welcome back. How are you, Sayyidina? Welcome. Yesterday, something very tragic happened in the U.S., especially in Orlando. Tonight's episode is somewhat related to what happened yesterday. Preaching the religion of Islam has various methods. It's unfortunate to see that the people that take the religion of Islam extreme to the next level, and they just cherry pick whatever they want and they apply it. But what is the importance of Da'wah preaching? And how should we, as Muslims, preach Islam to others? Take, for example, the shooting that happened yesterday in Orlando, that was motivated by homosexuals deserve death penalty. I mean, it's clear that Da'wah has major effects. Should we use aggression in this manner? It's a simple act. Of course it is. But should we use aggression in such matters? We live at very critical times. The spotlight is completely on Islam today, especially since a group of extremists who have misunderstood Islam, and consequently they are misrepresenting Islam through their actions. For them, Da'wah to Islam comes by aggression, inviting people to Islam and introducing them to the laws of Allah comes through aggression and violence, through hatred, through barbarism. These people, we have nothing in common with them. The ISIS mentality, they're far from the Quran. Are they? Very far from the Quran. They're far from the Sunnah of Rasulullah, the traditions of Rasulullah. And they have not understood how Islam is supposed to be implemented today. The problem with many preachers and many speakers and many scholars today is the way they're trying to get their point across. They have a passion for Islam. Some people, their passion stems from ignorance. Others, they stem from knowledge. But how do they get their point across to the other side? The other side could be a non-Muslim. It could be an American, a European, a Westerner that has no idea of Islam. They're trying to teach them and educate them about Islam. Or it could be another Muslim that disagrees with them. That relates to another school of thought. Sectarianism. Sectarianism, to another ideology. They're trying to teach them their version of Islam. But it's a matter of how, how are you getting your point across? Is it through aggression, through violence, through name-calling, through disrespect? Is it everything that you say it must be said? Everything that's written literally in the Quran should be said and taken for face value. Or should it be analyzed? Should, you know, time and place has a role in certain laws. This all plays a major role in the invitation of Islam. That is why it's a critical job. It's not for everyone to come and say, you know, this is Islam. It's a very detailed, specific job. It's very intricate. It's very dangerous. It's very sensitive. You have to be politically correct in how to convey the message to others without offending, without offending your own faith, without giving a bad image of your own faith. This is all part of the manners of Dawah and Islam. You just said that not everything within the Quran should be said. Is that, you know, after understanding? I mean, isn't the Quran clear? No. You see, not that everything in the Quran should not be said as in we should hide certain things. No. But there are some things in the Quran that should be understood within a context. That should be understood within a context. Yesterday, I heard a speaker and this is in the United States of America. You know, and this is what I'd like to emphasize on. Yes. Not the idiot who went on a shooting grand page and who killed 50 or 49 or I don't know how many people know. That person, I have nothing in common with him to discuss. He has no reason, no, you know, rational sort of thinking. He has no logic. So isn't he entitled as a Muslim? He's a Muslim by name. He's a Muslim by name, but not by intellect. That's my discussion is not with him because I have nothing in common with him. My discussion is with those that are not violent physically, but they're violent intellectually in their means of Dawah. You see them on TV, on channels, all over the media, on YouTube. There is style of preaching, there is style of condemning. This is a mushrik. This is a kafir. This person deserves execution. This person deserves death. This person deserves to be killed. Who are they? This sort of aggression. Not just with non-Muslims, but even with Muslims themselves. This person is an innovator. This person is a mushrik. This is bid'ah. This is kufr. This is sometimes within the same school of thought. Yes. In the same school of thought, we have tekfiris in the same school of thought. This person is a muhdarrif. This person is a vaad, a deviant. This person has straight away. This person is not a follower of Ahl al-Bakr. My issues with these kind of people, that we have something in common with them. They're preachers. And for me, this sort of person who has the freedom to speak and has a platform and comes on TV or on social media and is watched by millions. This person can do damage to Islam and Muslims more than the one that goes and terrorizes. More than the one that goes and terrorizes. Because that person is an idiot. He goes and he kills. It's very bad. But he doesn't claim to be a spokesman for Islam. Those who come and speak, they're claiming to be spokesmen. But that person... Right now, my job is very dangerous. Because right now I'm claiming to be a spokesman for Islam. So if I make a mistake, it will be reflected on Islam. He claims to be a representative of Islam. True. True. That is correct. However, his way of thinking is so ill. It's so irrational that it doesn't need a lot of proof and a lot of convincing to come and say, this shouldn't be done. This shouldn't be done. My issue, my fight is with my colleagues from my religion, my school of thought, preachers and religious scholars like myself who have a platform and they speak. But they're not using the etiquettes of Da'wah mentioned in the Qur'an. The ethics and manners of Da'wah that Islam, the Qur'an specifically has given us, the rules that the Qur'an has given us, they're not being used. These people are more harmful than many others. Definitely. And we have narrations regarding this. That a scholar has a great value in Islam. His worship is equivalent to the worship of thousand worshippers. But at the same time, his danger is worse than the danger of a thousand soldiers. He has a heavy burden upon his shoulders. A thousand soldiers cannot do harm as much as one scholar or a person who claims to be a scholar. Because he destructs within. Yes. So my issue is, how are you promoting Islam? How are you today? We live in a critical age. We do. Today I was watching CNN. I was listening to Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton is now, she's most likely going to be the Democratic presidential nominee for the elections. And there's a big chance that she will be elected as president. Today I was hearing her on CNN saying that I do not have a problem with using the word radical Islam. Really? Yes. Radical Islam. I'll use the word radical Islam. This is dangerous. Very dangerous. This is very dangerous. What are we doing to combat that? Are we making it worse? Are we giving her content? Are we, you know, encouraging her by our actions and by our sayings? Or should we combat that idea of radical Islam by another approach? A peaceful approach. Yes. Knowing the gems and the jewels of Islam, we're living at a very difficult time. We are. And the job and the responsibility is on the shoulders of the scholars and the preachers. How are you representing Islam? How are you performing da'wah? How are you inviting people? What face of Islam are you giving? This is the issue. I mean, as you mentioned, radical Islam, you know, stems from the same ideology that this person is actually, you know, what motivates this person. If someone actually goes into, you know, whatever he might think that it is, going in there and shooting someone, you know, unnecessarily and unwinningly. I mean, just going in there and shooting people. That doesn't make any sense. It doesn't prove anything that Islam is what? Islam wants to kill these individuals. But yet in the Quran, we do see that whoever kills one person is like he killed all of humanity. So we do see that. But in Chapter 16, verse 125, Allah states, Invite in the way of your Lord with wisdom and good advice and argue, debate with them in a way that is best. Indeed, your Lord is the most strong of those who are astrayed from his way. And he knows the people who have rightly guided. But yet we do see in the Quran and the traditions that it also says, you know, chase them under every rock. I could safely say that inspired against Rasulullah. So there were three. They all had a specific context. This is Hassanah with good advice. Speak to the people's minds and things that don't make sense. Of education, speak to him according to his level of not above. But to understand deep, it would understand how to prove God's existence. This is part of wisdom. Scholars in the West, in the Bible, that says or taken out of context. Definitely. The same person who actually went and killed his homosexuals. Results. About to warm up.

Welcome to this CUBE conversation. Kicking off 2022, I'm John Furrier, host of theCUBE. We're here at Loris DeGiovanni, Chief Technology Officer and Founder of SysDig, a company that's in the pioneering cloud-native and cloud-native security, open-source, big part of the CNCF, CUBECon coverage. Of course, we know them, that environment, as well as DockerCon, which we've covered many times. SysDig, very successful company. Loris, welcome to theCUBE, conversation. Thank you, and thanks for having me. Well, we know a lot about you, but a lot of folks are learning about you guys with your success. Congratulations on the funding and the validation of your product, which is not a surprise. We've been saying on theCUBE, open-source has been powering innovation for a minute sometime and getting stronger, faster, the predictions in the Linux Foundation about open-source contributions continue to be blown away by their projections and more and more is coming. A new generation is upon us, cloud-native, Edge, Kubernetes, all these things are powering a modern application environment, which is changing business. And under the covers, you guys are a big part of it. So take us through who SysDig is, what you guys do for the folks out there, and let's get into it. Obviously, open-source is a big part of it. Take us through who is SysDig and what do you guys do? Yeah, SysDig helps you run your software in the cloud in a way that is secure and confidently. We have a solution, a security solution that covers containers, cloud and Kubernetes. And we cover you in the life cycle of modern applications. So the SysDig security platform helps you secure application in a way that ranges from, like shift left and CSD and finding vulnerabilities in your CSD pipeline to runtime security that is very important in the cloud, in particular with orchestrated infrastructures like the ones that are determined by Kubernetes. And then of course, everything that has to do with forensics, threat hunting, and so on. And the world is changing, security is changing, and SysDig is one of the startups, one of the companies that is at the forefront of true modern cloud-native security. So I got to ask you, now were you sitting in your backyard one day thinking, hey, I'm going to start a company? How did this all come together? I mean, the originator story because we saw open source, we saw, even before CNCF was formed, you saw what cloud was doing. Again, you saw open stack and all these other things happening around technology. What was the driver behind the founding of SysDig? And then how did that progress? Because again, there's an open source component here I want to get into. Yeah, and it's interesting that you say backyard because actually SysDig was actually started in my backyard, you know, just outside here. So the backyard metaphor is very, very fitting here. And in a general way, let's say I come from a background in open source for a very long time, the SysDig is my second company. My first company was called Case Technologies. It was the company behind an open source network analyzer called Warshark, which is widely used by millions and millions of people around the world to do network troubleshooting and network analysis. And when we were doing network packets, we were using, you know, like the network devices to collect information. The data that is being transferred on the network has some very nice properties, it's rich, it's very deep. When you can see and decode what's happening on the network, you can understand what the applications are doing, what the users are doing. I used to say packets never lie, right? Because you could connect to the router and collect this data and have a very good picture without any two instrument libraries to link, to install your stuff and so on. And all of a sudden we're moving to the cloud and you know, the router that was like the vintage point for this beautiful way of doing security and visibility disappears, you know? And you're renting instances that are floating in the Amazon cloud, you know? And when the world changed its way from one point of view, I was sure that what we were doing before was useful and was powerful for the users. But I was also sure, okay, the world is going to change. The retrofitted all solutions are not going to work. We can take our product, but then we have the innovator, the dilemma, you know, we have a product that we cannot completely radically change. So I decided, let's start from scratch, let's start Sysdig and let's try to understand actually where this cloud is going, where containers are going. There's this new Kubernetes thing, you know, that everybody's talking about. What does it mean, you know, to offer deep reach but at the same time lightweight and easy to deploy security and visibility for this kind of new way of writing software. And that sounds Sysdig was born. So if I remember correctly, back on that timeframe, the company that you said you found that millions of people using that application, if I remember correctly, that was software network monitoring. Was that true? Was that open source at that time? Was that an open project or was that? Yeah, like one shark is a network analyzer and the software that we're doing was heavily open source oriented and was mostly software. There were also potential appliances because this was data center, more kind of stuff. That was before cloud even came here. So again, data center, software defined clouds happening. So again, good segue into kind of where security, you mentioned footprints, you can track people with packets. So to your point, is this the tie into security, what else, but where this all fits in with, how this fits in with open source and security with the software piece? Yeah, when something Sysdig essentially, the idea was, let's learn from our prior life. So, I always say that every new wave of technologies built on the shoulders of the previous one and you never reinvent anything. You just apply it and evolve it. And the same thing we did with Sysdig. So we learned what was working with our previous approaches that were based on observing the applications behavior by looking essentially in network traffic, but we adapted it to modern infrastructures. And open source was our mantra before with Warshark and became our mantra with Sysdig. Sysdig, the company name comes from the open source tool that we released was the first thing that we released in our company. Then, few years later with Falco, which now is the premier open source project that was created by Sysdig and is now part of the CNCF. It's an incubating project and it's essentially the runtime security tool for containers, Kubernetes and cloud. Take us through that Falco because I think this is an important distinction on your success trajectory because CNCF has a nice playbook where companies can contribute to the CNCF at the same time that creates an open environment for everyone, for all and then have a business model tied to it. This is kind of a new, not new but this is a successful way to be open source and have a commercial opportunity. Yeah, and very much, you know, substantial portion of our commercial product is and let's say an extension of Falco but let's say our approach was like let's first produce something that is truly useful for the community and fits in the proper way with the ecosystem with the rest of the ecosystem. Nowadays, in every field, security as well you don't build any more a single solution. You build something that needs to fit very well in the stack. Kubernetes, Prometheus, Network, Meshes and this and this kind of stuff. These all fit together, you know, so Falco, which is the runtime security component needs to fit as well. So initially with our focus was like, okay, we need to fill the gap of runtime security for containers, for Kubernetes and also for cloud but we need to do that in a way that is community first and that really helps but also engages and takes advantage of the users of the broader community. And at the point going to the CNCF and telling the CNCFA, look, we developed this. Are you interested in partnering with us and being essentially the organization behind this project was very natural. And that's what we did in 2016, right? Sorry, in 2018, 2016 is when Falco started in 2018. And at the point, you know, it's a great partnership because the CNCF is really a great home for all of these projects and really makes it possible for the users to trust a project in a way that they know that even if the commercial baker, even if the original creators, even if the team, you know, rotates and changes and devolves, the user, then users can still use this project, trust this project and know that it's community driven, you know, and it's been a great journey for us. How would you describe what Falco is and what are the key use cases? Yeah, Falco is, I compare it to the security camera for your containers, your hosts and your cloud infrastructure. So the same way that the security camera allows you to observe maybe what's happening in your home. Even if you have a lock, it's still useful to have a security camera, right? To understand when something breaks in, what they're doing, when they do it, get an alarm, you know, when something bethets. Similarly, you know, in software infrastructures, you can still have your lock, your firewall and so on. But then you use a security camera like Falco that is able to observe every single container, every single process, every single machine, every single network connection and so on. Keep an eye on it. And then it has sort of a policy-based system that includes a bunch of policies that come essentially prepackaged that allow the users to detect when something dangerous or suspicious happens in the infrastructure. For example, I don't know, somebody is spawning a share in a Redis container or somebody is logging in AWS without multi-effect authentication. Falco keeps it constant tight and lets you know it gives you an alert when something like that happens. You know what I love about what you guys do and kind of highlights what we've been seeing on theCUBE for many, many years is that the networking concepts of the older generations have been moving up the stack with cloud because you got rule engines, policy, automation, all these things are now part of connected systems. So if you have the cloud, which is essentially distributed computing, you have more networks, more connections. And so the networking paradigms of packets can be moved over to software, just well, software maintenance if you will, or anything, any middleware, whatever you want to call it. I mean, this is kind of a new paradigm. So what's your reaction to that? I want to get your take on this because this is kind of really happening. Yeah, and you are absolutely right. And what us as a Falco community or as a company is exactly that, you know, we're taking the concepts that were maybe at the base of the previous generation of the data center in terms of policies, in terms of workloads, and we're sort of elevating them to what modern cloud is. To give an example, I don't know if you remember, but Falco was inspired by a tool called Snort and the company called SourceFire. Snort used to listen on the network, constantly observed the network traffic and the right policies to tell you, okay, somebody has applauded the file from China and this file contains malware. Now we do this, but we were able to see inside containers, we have cloud context, we understand the regions, we understand Kubernetes namespaces, all this kind of stuff. So we're able to put so much more context and be so much closer to the user. But the concepts are the same. We're just, as I was saying, sitting on the shoulders of people before us that invented this and we're modernizing them. Well, this is what refactoring is all about. This is the benefit of the cloud. I think that's why a lot of the cloud-needed success is happening because companies are realizing that they can actually not just replatform in the cloud, but actually refactor their business. Completely different using other paradigms and not necessarily rip and replace or just, you know, cut and paste. They can take concepts and codify them in their workloads, not necessarily general purpose. So again, key cloud concept and only going to get stronger with the edge developing. So again, more and more complexity connected complexity. Yeah, complexity that more and more you manage through automation, right? Which is another key concept in the cloud. So we are able as a market, as a community to have and manage more and more complex infrastructures because we have tools that are able to automate to take care of stuff for us, to potentially remediate, which is another big thing, you know, in modern security for us and so on. And of course, again, companies like Sysdig try to really read this and apply it in a proper way that can be the most possible use. Hackers love complexity, right? So and love, love chaos. And so unless you tame that with really good software, this is the key, key challenge, right? You need to manage chaos and you need software, good software to help you manage chaos. Our final question for you. How is Sysdig and the Falco community working with AWS? Yeah, in a number of ways. One of the beauties as I was telling before of essentially being built on an open source project like Falco is that you can really work together with cloud providers like AWS with mutual advantage. For example, AWS and team members at Amazon have done many contributions to Falco and the build system and the integrations and so on. We partnered as Falco community and the Sysdig with AWS to offer proper support for Falco and for Sysdig products on Fargate, which is managed containers are the future are very powerful. Everybody wants to go there, but then you need to make sure that you are covered from the point of view of security, from the point of view of observability and so on. So Sysdig and AWS work together on doing a Ptrace-based implementation. This is a technical thing, but essentially it means that a tool like Falco can give you its detections, can be the security camera for Fargate as well. And in general, Amazon is a great partner for us on a daily basis, as a community and as a company. Lars, you got a great company there. And again, it's great to see you guys grow from the beginning and how the wave is here, as I say in California, you guys are riding the right wave. And I think it's just the beginning. I think you're going to see more and more security be programmable, built in, automated, under the covers, invisible, but working. And I think the same is going to be true for data and other things. So a lot more to do. And again, it's distributed computing. It's, we've seen this movie before, but not in this environment. So new tools are coming and you guys are a big part of it. Thank you so much for coming on theCUBE and sharing what you guys are doing and the technology behind Sysdig. Thanks for coming on. Thank you very much and thank you for the great conversation. Okay, this is theCUBE. I'm John Furrier, your host for CUBE Conversation with Sysdigs. There is Digivani, CTO of Sysdig. Thanks for watching.

Greg Roman seemed like we ain't heard that name in a long time Like it feels like he hasn't been with the Ravens in forever Because I'll be so used to going on Twitter Seeing people talk about Greg Roman. We had plenty of conversations about Greg Roman on here too But I was so used to it But now it's like it seems like it's been so long since we heard his name and I remember when Ravens and Greg Roman mutually decided to part ways with each other that That Greg Roman he had an interview with right down the street with the Washington Commanders But this was before Eric B. Enemy. He ended up getting the job So we'll see how that works itself out. But Greg Roman was somebody that I was for sure like a Before during the season when he interviewed with Stanford and that article came out like a Stanford They get ready to hire Greg Roman. I was like, okay My god getting ready to get a job. He going to college to go be the coach over there. All right, Greg Roman. Let's go But then it came out like a couple days after that. Oh, no, they decided to go in a different direction. So All right, well Then offseason happened Then the Ravens and the Ravens they mutually parted ways and I was thinking oh, yeah He gonna get a job as an NFL coach for sure Somebody gonna hire him as an offensive coordinator. He's a good Introductory guy to introduce a quarterback to the NFL Cuz he'll do some things that can make the quarterback's job easier and Alleviate a lot of pressure off the quarterback early on in his career But nothing nothing happened And I was shocked and I was shocked and the way as crazy as this offseason has been It made me it didn't even allow me to realize excuse me It made me forget about Greg Roman and the fact that he was still out there but Greg Roman was he talked to the 33rd team in an interview and He said that as far as the NFL He said it's taking a season off Are you taking a little break and with this break you'll get to spend more time with his family because that is true And that's a beautiful thing He said he will Be doing a little bit with a college team didn't say who it was but did say that he would be involved in high school football as well So I guess whatever he'll be doing. There will be a lot less commitment Both ways there will be a lot less commitment from whoever he's working with to him And there will be a lot less commitment from whoever he's working with from him So he'll be able to have that much more flexibility because and he talked about in the brief clip that I'm sure we've all seen by now But he talked about with the NFL like when you're working and you you're working for a team and whatnot in the NFL Like he and he's like, oh, I could tell you like if you asked me what am what am I doing this day? I could tell you on my schedule at what time I'll be doing this that an X Y and Z But he basically was saying when you work in an FL you you are busy. You are extremely busy you all in and that's it But now that he won't be this year You gotta worry about that So I'm happy for Greg Roman now. I do think that um Cuz it's like I Guess that the right opportunity didn't come along because we see it with football players all the time if Nothing's buzzing for them if they are free agent and nothing's jumping. They be oh, I'm just waiting on the right opportunity Or we're all I'm taking some time off But then when that phone call ring and they get they get the right call But now I guess for Greg Roman just the right opportunity didn't come along and maybe he did some self-reflection And I was like, you know what? I made some good money. I Was once the the highest paid offensive coordinator in the game So I don't make some good money Now, you know what? I'm a chill I'm a chill. I'm a relax now. I'm gonna take it off Now one thing that I do wonder though now with him saying oh, yeah I'm gonna take this year off from the NFL not from football completely different NFL I wonder if the right team came along if he would change his tune Because sometimes that's all it takes sometimes all it takes is the right opportunity and you'll be like Bob family. I'm out of here at least for NFL people. They could do that But I just wonder cuz I mean I was I was hoping that he was gonna get a job in Washington Cuz I'm like, man, he ain't even got a move. He ain't got a move He go up on the the parkway the belt way or whatnot. He's right down the street straight I'll tell you like I want to get the work on. I don't know where he lived or whatever But he ain't got he wouldn't even have to move that'll make it so easy to transition for his family for his kids and whatnot but Obviously didn't work out. So now Greg Romney like, you know what? I'm a chill and I respect it. I respected him Kind of calling his own shots. I mean like, you know what that's it for me. So Just like Greg Roman is this year with the NFL when it comes to coaching in the league I'm out

Okay, welcome to vlog Thursday. Hi. Hello. It's January 18th this time, you know, you need to know. And we're going to change that. Oh, okay, never mind, forget I said anything. No, no, we're not gonna change date. I do not have such powers. Maybe you would develop something. Yeah, well, I actually did invent a time machine, but then I thought it was a bad idea, so I went back and not invented it, and now it's all over. No? Okay, welcome to vlog Thursday. We're gonna quit using dates and start using episode numbers. Someone suggested that. That was a great idea. And it's an idea we should have had from the beginning. And the reason why is because my podcast has episode numbers, not dates. Yeah. And like everything has episode numbers. Then we can someone say, hey, an episode blah, blah, blah, you mentioned, and they have to mention in dates. And of course the people outside of America have different date formats. So yeah, I'm going to try to make an effort to maybe rename them and give them all because I got to go backwards and do it. Yeah, I'm really lazy. But at least going forward, I can because it's easy to count how many because there's tools, right? A playlist that has all of our blogs in it. I can count how many we did. What episode would be at? We're coming up on a year of doing this, right? Oh, over a year of doing it. This would be like, it's 50 something right now. Can't be over a year because I've been here a year. I know. And we've been doing it for... I thought we did the first one like at my month, right? Wasn't the first vlog. There's like Mars. Okay, so right around either way. So yeah, but either way, it's close. Yeah. Close and things like that. That is, that's all the changes that... Oh, lights. We're still learning and improving. How about these, huh? How about this? I actually recorded it before I recorded this and cleared the table. A video on the lights themselves, which I have to now edit and make happen. So there's that. I have... Well, let's just jump into the topic of the business of YouTube. The business of YouTube. The business of YouTube. Let's do it. So YouTube made changes. I did a video where I just kind of ramble out about the changes and talked about them. And me and Marvin were discussing them as well because of how we want to do this channel and how we do things. And the problem that some of the changes create that I didn't really address, but I thought about later, is fixing toilets. So in the past the way monetization worked, I know, we're gonna bring it back to you on topic here. This is not Tuesday. Nothing to say to that. So shout out to the guy who uses his cell phone and doesn't drop it in a toilet to make a video about how to fix a toilet. And there's a lot of YouTubers and I really thought about that where they... There's not a reason to subscribe to your channel. And I realized that was exactly how my early days were on YouTube. I just made videos on how to do and how to fix a few things. I never thought about creating audience and having, you know, this back and forth conversation that we have. And even some of our videos aren't as much subscriber-worthy because we're just doing things like talking about firewalls and stuff like that. And in general, there's a lot of people like that. They don't create a channel that creates a lot of content like we do. They just create a video to help you with a thing. They may monetize it with that thing and then they make a few dollars off it. Now, granted in the U.S., the money you make off of there compared to the cost of living here isn't wonderful. But it is a few dollars. You can make hundreds. You can figure for every million views. You may make $1,500 off that. And it's not bad, but not many things. The total of her videos don't usually get a million views. But you may see 20 or 30,000 views. It may make the guy, you know, 100 bucks on that video. And the way the monetization works, because you need a certain number of subscribers and consistent views to keep your monetization in there slapping people who already monetize as well. So it's not just new tubers. New tubers. It's the existing tubers that do it. So this is causing a lot of controversy and strife. And people who are in other countries where the cost of living is lower, the money is technically higher because of the exchange rate. So I guess it is disproportionately affecting them. And it's something that people talk about, you know, U.S. exceptionalism and things like that. It really is kind of funny when you think about it because there's two, over a billion people on YouTube. But there's only 329 million roughly Americans at the last census. And they're not all on YouTube. So we absolutely make up far less than one quarter of the YouTube audience, like people from the U.S. Sure. So what is it that YouTube changed in their, in their, like, are they, so are they changing that you do or don't need more subscribers? You need a minimum of 1,000 subscribers and then you need 4,000 watched hours. That's kind of a steep requirement. So one of my friends, before they'll start paying. Right. Okay. Yeah. And what was it before? It was just 10,000 minutes, I believe it was. So they substantially changed it. So 10,000 minutes. And I don't remember what, I think it's just 100 subscribers. Okay. And this is part of YouTube. And one thing that's come, even after the first change that they made last year, which was the so many minutes. And now that they've come into here, I know the problem's gone away. And I thank you for everyone who's done this. And I mentioned this in my video, plagiarism. And what people were doing on YouTube is just constantly plagiarizing someone else's popular content and re-uploading it. And a lot of people who are just viewing, they look for the thing that they want to see. They're like, hey, check this video out on XYZ. So because it has the same title, you may find it before you find the other video because someone plays in monkeys with the keyword searches a little bit. So all they did was take the content, duplicate the content, download, re-upload, and they start making money off of that exact same content with no originality. So they have fixed a lot of that. Now that will not do anything to address the Logan Paul issue, because that's just YouTube. Yeah. They basically said they're going to put humans back on how that crap gets to the top of the page. I hope so. I certainly hope so. Yeah. But as far as us for the channel, I look at it from a business standpoint, and this is what I talk about in my video. I mean, I'm thankful for the money I get from YouTube, but it's not a significant part and it would not pay for everything we have here. And I also find it interesting, you look at people like Rhett and Link and Philip DeFranco, you're talking about a couple of people there, or even the Green Brothers, John and Hank. They produce videos since 2006. Yeah. There was no monetization platform. You know why they produced them? Passion. Yeah. And a lot of that is where I come from. I mean, this is not the end all, I make money in IT. That pays really well. This is fun. We enjoy doing it. We enjoy sharing it with you. We love the audience interaction. That's really why I do it. I mean, granted, yes, it's great to make a few dollars on sites. I'm taking time away from my business where I make money. And what I was just saying, I ended up before we make unblock Thursdays. We are losing, we are, money is flying out our butt right now. Because it costs more. We pay more in wages to you than we made on all the videos. I'm sorry. It's just back. We don't, it just, I'm like, look, we made two dollars on Vlog Thursday. Thank you, YouTube. Well, but that's directly from YouTube, though. Right. I still think you have to roll in, though. I mean. The bigger picture in a popular area. Of course. It still gets business, right? People see a video that Tom did or, you know, whatever. And then that gets them to call us and say, oh, I see that you know all there is to know about PF Sense. I need you to help me set up my PF Sense. Yeah. And there is, there is a, that is another side of our business model. I'm not shy about where we will set up your networks and things like that. That's something absolutely we offer as services. I, you know, I try to be as detailed as possible. I'm not like, and this is, this is one of the things that I noticed that some people who try to use this marketing and I had a discussion with a, another tech company yesterday on the phone and they don't like giving it all away. They want to give you the teasers. I'm like, no, I literally, you can follow my videos. And I've gotten so many emails and thank you very much. I love the feedback where I'm, I try to be as detailed as possible. I don't say, here's almost how to set it up. And for $29.95, buy the full thing. And I see so many people using YouTube as that way. They use it just as a teaser and a lead to get you to buy, subscribe to their mailing list and buy their $29.95 book that gives you the full details and courses. I mean, maybe I'm not the best business person because I don't do that. And that's why some of them are, there's that one. I know a couple people and they have a high-end car collection. I mean, that is a good strategy where they, they do some of the videos, but they give you really in-depth training courses for a fee. And I get it. I guess if it's your only income, you kind of have to do it that way. I don't know, I'm always torn out. I like, I love sharing knowledge. I spoke at conferences and not asked for any compensation. I just go there and- I think from a user standpoint though, I know myself, if I, if I look up how to do something on YouTube and I get the, for the rest of it, you know, buy my thing, I'm just going to look for it elsewhere. I'm not, I'm probably not going to pay you $29.95 to get the rest of it. I mean, if I don't find it anywhere, then maybe I got to come back. But I think too, if you do lay out all that detail, people who are going to try to fix it themselves are going to try to fix it themselves. Yeah. But you can also lay out all the detail and it's happened to me, it has happened to me a couple of times. I go, oh, that's complicated. I'm not going to do that. That too. I'm going to call them and say, how about you fix this for me? Yeah. So I always go back and forth because, you know, what should I monetize on? What shouldn't I, I like giving a lot of way. It's finding a happy balance. I would love to, but it requires more funding, so to speak. And, you know, we've got a Patreon set up. I haven't really done much promoting with it. We set it up because I'm trying to figure out where we're going to go with it. Because if I, as I get money for it, I'm willing to give even more things away, because I can only put so much time into YouTube, because if I don't run the business at some point, the business has to make money and move forward. So that still involves me a little bit. More is the pity. I know that I'm sure people are like, shut up, just shut up. Oh, you got your business and you have to run it. I'm so sad for you. Also related for other people who are on YouTube. If you think YouTube is your own, any, anytime, your only source of revenue is one single place you can have a problem. That's a life rule. That doesn't mean that's not just from a business perspective. That's a, think about that. If you completely rely and then the company you work for goes out of business, there's a problem, which is unfortunate, but it can happen. So it's why you should have savings and why you, as best possible, not live check to check and think about those financial decisions all the time. Those are just things that should be considered all the time. And you'll notice, you even take a big channel, and I'm going to talk like Linus or any of the other big tech channels, almost, I don't think they run a video at all that they don't have a sponsored post as in they're being sponsored by, there's like TunnelBear and a few other companies, or especially tech channels, they only get sponsored by the product company. So they'll have an intro and check out XYZ products and blah, blah, blah. I'll follow the link below and then they roll into their video and things like that. I'm trying to avoid some of that because I come to really understand the advertisement agreement and I know you have to watch ads on YouTube unless you sign up for YouTube red, which I think is really cool. But the other side of it is we have to find a way to monetize it. I just wish there was more variety because when you start watching three different YouTubers, but they're in a similar thing because I want to get reviews on things, sometimes they'll all have the same thing. You're like, oh, they all are sponsored by XYZ company. They're just like the podcasts I listen to. They're all sponsored by Blue Apron. Yeah, or Stamps.com. Stamps.com and Blue Apron. Just like, I'm familiar with the Blue Apron product and I'm familiar with Stamps.com. We don't really ship anything. So it doesn't apply to me. I get it. I know the offer code for everybody now. And there's like nine different podcasters all doing that. So we're trying to avoid some of those things. We just need to get somebody that is not tech related so it's not like a sellout kind of thing. You know, we need to be sponsored by Kraft macaroni and cheese or something. Kraft macaroni and cheese, if you're listening. I guess some kind of hot sauce. We are not sponsored, but I will give a shout out to Bigby over in Southgate on Dixieleta Road. Yes, Hyrule. Hyrule, he listens to us sometimes. He likes to see the Bigby cups and the things. He's sort of, I'm sorry, man. I say fueled by Bigby, not sponsored by Bigby. That's right. That's right. All right, back on to other business topics. So besides the shenanigans that we do post on theirs, someone did ask if we ever get any work done because and I think the reality is of working here, we try to keep it lighthearted and fun because I've said this before, no one calls because everything's so hunky-dory and happy. They call it because there's a problem and they want to address the problem. So we definitely have to keep it lighthearted. We're full of just any time we can make horrible puns, we do. We are very punny. Oh yeah, it gets bad. It's always some type of how to make fun. But a lot of the time too is spent communicating with customers, waiting for things to happen. And we end up with like little bits of free time because if nothing's broke and all of our management tools that we use that automate all of the deployment processes are working swimmingly like our backups. Chairman leaders never ever a problem. And then with some of the updates, there was a problem and it caused one of the backups not to work. Well, now we have something to do. You know, because for some reason it failed on one piece of it. So back with the files and because we monitor this stuff very actively, this is what happens. And then we jump into action where there's something to do. We've had a big project with the school even working on. So that's kept us really busy working and putting all the quotes together. And I haven't done as many videos on site because it's been really tough to wander around with a camera at some of the clients and put this together. And also I did a video that's coming on site, but I have to do... I screwed it up a little bit. Oh no. Yeah. I was playing with the card, flipping the camera on and off and I popped the card while it was on. Turns out I corrupted the video I shot. So I knew, I was seeing what would happen and now I completely know what would happen. This was a test. This was a test. This was... Can I do something done with this? I was just playing around with it and I don't know. Whenever what you're about to do starts with, I wonder what will happen if I do this. It's rarely going to go well. Yeah, that happens. Though I will say this quick aside though, that works well at Home Depot though. If you're not getting any help, if you just say I wonder if this will break if I do this. Five people will come out of the woodwork. Yeah, absolutely. Out of the woodworking department. See what I did there? Tom got it. I got it. Told you we're punny. Yeah, I was talking a little about the PC repair business. We've been... Now we talked about this before and other people, I know we have a few people who have MSPs, they asked about running a retail store. We don't plan on closing a retail store. So the benefit of the retail store is we have established hours, people can bring their computers in, and that has led to a lot of business leads for us. We actually just got a good social media lead and a website lead off of a guy who came in and we fixed a broken screen. He happens to own a business and he brought it in. We like doing the repair side. Don't have any problems with that. That's still a lesser than it was because we usually repair tons of screens. Screen repairs have really plummeted and the reason why is even our inexpensive price for screen repairs, people go, I guess I just want to buy a new laptop. And the other thing about... Now the hardware sales, that has been going down dramatically. And I like this guy that came in. He was obnoxious. He walks in. We want $7 for an HDMI cable. Best Buy wants $29. And he even said that. Best Buy wanted $29. You guys want $7 for the same cable. I said, yeah, that's reasonable. Well, I can get it on Amazon for $2.99. And I'm like, yeah, that's where we bought it from for $2.99. Why don't you sell it for that price? Because I wouldn't make any money. Right. So I did. I paid $3 or $2.50, I think it was, because we bought it in bulk and marked it up to $7. And he told me I was ridiculously overpriced. I'm like, I don't get it. Dude, it's the overpriced compared to $29.99 at Best Buy. Yeah. Because I guarantee you, they paid less than $2.50 for it. Yeah, because they bought it. Because they bought 100,000 of them. Yeah. So this is the part that always confused me. People want that Amazon price. They want the convenience. But they want it now. And it's funny, the guy left, and then he came back and gave us $7 for it. I'm like, really, it's... This is why we don't have a lot of retail is because the general public, not that I have a problem with, I'm not picking on them, but there's a lot of people hunting deals. Great, I hunt deals too. That's also why I generally buy online or do some other price comparisons. And I get that. That's where the market has moved to. I watch these people struggling because if you're not adding any value, then why would you sell the product? And then the products are all MSRP with no margin or low margin or small percentages. You know, we talked about this before. This is why Best Buy spends all their time singing and dancing about warranties. Now, the other side of that is Best Buy has... I think they sell the policy of 14 days to return to anything. And after that, they tell you to call the manufacturer. Now, Best Buy is a big corporate company that just hands you a phone number versus they go, oh, you're a small business. I'll bring it back. And we've had people do this two years after they bought something and expect some type of warranty with it. And I'm like, look, we sold it in writing, 90-day warranty, you know? And people are like, well, I brought it in a shop and you're no more. And I'm like, this is one of the reasons that we've just seen products because the margin was so small on it to begin with trying to replace it for free two years later. And yeah. So we pretty much have focused only on service. If you think about running a retail place, the service side's good. The market for product, selling a couple of convenience items, that's all we really have in there. Most of the stuff in our front area is our stuff that we use. Like we got switches and a few other things there. And people rarely ever come in looking for that because other IT people... And at least I have... We have sold to some other IT people because they're understanding. They're like, I know I can get it on Amazon. It's probably where you bought it. But I have a problem. So we have relationship with our IT companies and they don't mind paying the market. But they have an understanding and those are our favorite customers has been other IT people. Yeah. We don't have any laptops up there right now. I don't think we're going to do any more, are we? No. It's been... We try to find used ones. When you can go buy, and I know they're crappy laptops, but you can go buy at Best Buy right now. We've seen some for $2.49. We've even seen some nice ones at Best of Decent ones between Amazon and Best Buy. Nice and Lovo's in the $5, $600 range. And I'm like, great. The used ones don't match the speed, don't have Windows 10, which a lot of people are now asking for. So we're paying a lot for them. Then the labor... You know how many times we bought laptops? And this includes from what seemed to be reputable sellers and had to send them back because they shipped them with bad hard drives to us. So I have all this labor sunk cost into them just to try and make a product sellable. So by the time I had up all the labor costs and the cost of the product, I'm like, the margin was this big. And then if the problems... Because I can't give a long warranties on or if I do give a long warranties, any problem means I'm going to be in the negative on that product. So we've just kind of gone to where it's just the margin's real small on it. Buy a new one. Matter of fact, we started publishing Amazon links with Amazon affiliate links right on our blog. And I did a video on it because people could have asked me deals for Christmas. So I did a deals for Christmas list. We read a list of some laptops. Matter of fact, the Acer Gaming laptop was really impressive. It was a really nice high-end laptop that you could buy for a very reasonable price. And I'm like, this is a good price. I can't beat the price. I can't even find any order that sells it for cheaper. And I got this guy. He kept calling me. I kind of laughed. Well, we sell with other MSPs like you and we help provide product and things like that. And I said, oh, great. And so when I've called him for pricing, he's been able to beat Amazon by $1 and $2 on 800 and $900 dollar products. That's worth it. Yeah. Because people just buy you order for Amazon. Remember the Lenovo reseller incident? Yeah. Well, Lenovo wants more money as a reseller. And we haven't figured out the methodology. We found a couple of vendors on Amazon again that are selling the Lenovo. The cheaper the Lenovo will sell them to me. Now, they're new, not refurbished with the SSDs, with all the same features you want. And this is what we buy for our clients. And we're not secretive about our pricing for this stuff. And if the client wants us to buy it, there's a certain amount of markup. It's just the management fee for us getting them and dealing with them. And mostly we roll it all into a bigger project because we're replacing, for example, we have a project where we're putting new computers in an office and we're going to be replacing them and they need wiring. So it's just one big project. I mean, they're a client that trusts us and they're, you know, we'll just go in and take care of it for them. So we just order all the stuff. We get them here. They all come with warranty. Matter of fact, they come with a two-year warranty online because that was the other thing you got. Well, if you buy them in Amazon, they don't come with a warranty. I'm like, they do. Yeah. And matter of fact, even some of the Dell's have come with the Dell onsite warranty when we order Dell's online. We don't know why Amazon can sell Dell's cheaper than Dell can. I contact Dell directly. Now there's tricks to dealing with Dell directly where you put it in the cart but then you call a sales person and then really that generally gives you a three-year warranty or a five-year warranty. Just let you guys know. Yeah. So we play games with the system as much as we can for margin but it makes it hard to put product in here because a lot of people, other than the businesses who just want a turnkey solution for the retail market, they who are already looking at the deal, if they get time to haggle with someone online, they go do it. Yeah. So short of it, we're keeping a retail store. Long of it, we aren't doing much product sale because the value isn't truly there. Matter of fact, retail in general, they keep calling it the retail apocalypse. They said it last year, we're seeing it but we are seeing a big shrinking of stores. Oh yeah. There's really not a lot of places. I mean, there's a lot of areas, especially down river here, that just don't have stores anymore. There's so many vacant buildings used to sell things that are commoditized now that you can go buy and do it online and that's what people want to do. Yeah. So it's been... I'm guilty of it myself. Yeah, it's not even... That part's not always about price. You're paying for the convenience. I know something may be a little bit more expensive but the retail experience is less than stellar to me. So I don't like going to stores. I don't like standing in lines. I don't... There's nothing about that experience that I enjoy. Sure. Yeah. So when I can just go, send me three boxes of pop tarts. Quantity four because I'm feeling hungry right now. Wait, do we get new pop parts? And Amazon entices you with things like subscription to pop tarts. Right, yeah. We need the pop tart button. We need a pop tart button. As well as, you know, people who bought pop tarts also bought ho-hos and we're like, oh yeah, we totally should get ho-hos. Yeah, there's their algorithmic suggestion engines. And it's a good one. Yeah. And I don't mind it. I do see some innovation. We have our local Kroger's, as they have their click it thing, which is pretty cool. They're doing each job of that. What you can do is you shop online, put everything in the cart, and they will walk it to your car. I think that's pretty cool. Sure. You just pull up. You... I don't think it's an app. And on my wife uses it. I don't... I think it's an app too. I haven't used it, but... But it's kind of cool. They got a little area you pull up to it and they put the groceries. You just pop the trunk, they put the grocery and the trunk. Done. They do all the shopping for you. They pull it. That's actually really great because now we've avoided the part that drives me nuts with things like blue apron or plated or all those. It's the amount of waste involved. That is a problem I see and I'm very... I try to be very conscious of packaging and they pack in all these stupid... What are those things? The coolers, the stuff. You throw away so much crap. I don't know. I haven't used it, but I've talked to people who have and they've said the exact same thing. My wife did and it's just like... There's so many boxes and everything and I know there's the whole problem with plastic bags and things like that, but if you get paper bags, it's not that bad comparatively and you can recycle those easier. And there's much less waste overall compared to the amount of plastic and effort that went into it. You just drive to the store and you can get things now. So you can go on your computer. I need 10 boxes of optart please and they will walk them out to your car. You don't even have to do your car. Then hire a task rabbit to go actually pick up the food. You can get a task rabbit. And they'll bring it home and put it away for you too if that's what you've hired them to do. That's true. That's true. I mean I'm just... I was thinking about that, is I don't have one of those fancy... Because I don't put IoT things at my house but I do have a Marcus. I realize I use a Marcus a lot. If you haven't heard of this device, it's taken years of training, a loving to be precise. And I can be like, hey Marcus, turn the lights off. Hey Marcus, I need some water. That's the main reason to have children. I mean back... I mean we kind of grew up when they were kind of coming in but like at first you didn't have remote controls for the TV. I was the TV remote. We were the remote control. We were the remote control. We had the clicker thing. Yeah. Turn it and Dad's like, nope. Channel 4. Nope. Channel 7. And something you get from a Marcus that you don't get from some of these other assistants is snarkiness. Right? I can't remember if I mentioned this before but I was like, hey Marcus, grab me a beer out of the fridge. He says, Dad, that would make me a minor in possession. No. I was like, he's not wrong. You can't argue that logic. Kids gotten... He is now too advanced. The AI has gotten too advanced. Yeah, now we... Yeah, so... Do you yell like, okay Marcus? Like an okay Marcus. Okay Marcus. Yeah, no. It's fun getting your kids to do stuff. Sure. And my daughter now that she's 16... Oh, she can drive you places? She can drive me places? So this is like self-driving car. Yeah, exactly. Who needs a test live in Amica? That's right. Okay, Amica, take me to Kroger where they're going to load stuff in our car. Yep, drive me to Kroger. It is my best... It's my favorite way to text and drive. It keeps me distracted from whatever it is she's like. I'm like, I want to reach over to Sherman like, we need to go this... Yeah, you're a little closer to Kroger. Though she says I am better to drive with the mom. And apparently mom has panic attacks. Oh, yeah. Well, I remember when I had my permit, it was a perfect example of the difference between my mom and dad. I kind of... I totally should have stopped at the yellow light, but I didn't. I went on through it. Yeah. Mom in the back seat, freaking out. Oh my god, you're going to kill us. And my dad was finally just like, okay, you should have stopped at that. Yep. That was the difference, right? Oh, okay. I get the point. Yeah, pretty simple. All right, we've rambled on for long enough. Thank you for watching. If you liked the content here, like and subscribe. If you've lasted this long, like and subscribe. We always get a little slap happy towards the end. Make sure you always watch to the end of the show. We're having fun with Off Topic Tuesday. That's been great. We actually, we're working more on... I think we did a good job with the content. We're working on it because we've been curing the content during the week. We start building it all up so we actually can talk more in depth about it and reading it. So, and sometimes people send us suggestions. We have a fun one. Kyle sent me. Oh, really? Yes, apparently you can threaten the Google Assistant. So that'll be... Yes. All right. We're going to cover Easter eggs and assistants because we're going to see how many we can find. At least the one, the or else one is fun with Google. We'll talk about that in prior to it. So once again, thank you for watching. Thank you for rambling on with us. I do have a Patreon if you want to throw money at us. Thank you very much. We really, really appreciate it. Sure. If you don't have any money, don't. Don't spend money you don't have ever done that. All right. Thanks. See you.

Well, I want to share with you this morning, I suppose a Christmas message, you might say, we're still in the season of it, and every year, I suppose, you know, around the world, if there's one time that still so much of the world stops and pauses and contemplates the birth of Christ, and it's usually not just simply a day, it's kind of a season as it all comes together. It's a time of many family and friends gathering together, you know, days off, plans for it, a lot of gift-giving, a lot of all of that stuff going on all around the world. And yet at the same time, there, you know, it's kind of made out to be this wonderful occasion, which it is spiritually, that's for sure, but many people experientially, it isn't quite that way. It's a very difficult season. I saw an article in the Associated Press of a family back in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that was in a real problem with their homeowner's association, because they had a 150-pound statue of the Virgin Mary that they had put out in front of their condominium. Well, it was common ground, and they weren't allowed just to put whatever they wanted out there, but they felt, no, we need to do this to remember Christmas, and so they put it out there. Well, they came along, and one day the statue's gone, and the homeowner's association had confiscated it. They were contacted by the press, and they agreed, yes, we have indeed confiscated it, but it was on ground, and we're fining them because we warned them. They didn't put it down, and right now they owed them $4,000 in fines for it, and that they did say, yes, we do have her, but we're going to keep her in custody until the $4,000 is paid, and then we'll give her back. And so there was quite a tension. I don't know the ultimate solution for it would happen, but for a lot of people, Christmas isn't everything it's cracked up to be. It's a time there of, there's a lot of deep heartaches. There's a lot of struggles. I doubt if there's a person sitting here that there isn't things that come up during this season, as much as there's wonderful things about it, but there's a lot of heartaches. Many of us relatives, they're unsafe. They don't agree with us. We don't get along over Christmas or agree with what it's really all about. The gatherings are oftentimes uncomfortable. Many times homes are torn apart over it. Some of us, the children are away from the Lord. Families don't get along well. Sometimes you've got to meet with part of the family here and part of the family there and you can't get them all together or you're going to have all sorts of problems. And that isn't even to talk about all the death that people get into. Christmas just trying to pay for it. Trying to make everybody happy, trying to be a good person. They're in a loving person and economically it's terrible. You look at the, you know, right now credit card debt is the all-time high we're told in history. And it can be very difficult, particularly when what other people get and what you don't get or your kids get or other kids don't get. I remember one time with my children, they're all, you know, quite older, a bit older now, but when they were just little kids we had relatives that did very well. They could give wonderful gifts to their children and our families were close. We'd celebrate Christmas together, but it was a difficult time, frankly, for us. And it was difficult because what we were able to give our kids didn't compare with what their cousins got. And of course they all noticed that. And so it was something there. You just kind of well go together and have a good time together with everybody, but there was still this downer of you couldn't keep up with them. And I remember one particular Christmas there for our boys, we had three boys and we, because they needed to dress up now and then we got all three of them blue blazers through, you know, little jackets there. So if there was something they needed to be a little dressed up for they would have a blue blazer. And we're coming home from Christmas there after things. It's kind of quiet in the car after this on the way home. They started laughing. They said, what's so funny? I said, this is the first time in all the years that you got the same gifts that your cousins got. And they're, what? I said, yeah, you all got blazers. Only they actually got a Chevy Blazer. But they didn't think it was funny. I tried to, the joke didn't go over, but that's what happened, you know. But sometimes just the struggles, that's what it is. That's the trial of the thing. With all the difficulties and all the struggles that do go on. And right now the whole world is going through struggles, I think, greater than it's ever gone through in many ways. Right now with this pandemic and the effect that has happened on many homes, on careers and jobs and businesses that may never come back on the economy. And we're going through incredibly difficult times. And I don't know that they're going to end soon. That's for sure. No matter what we try to do, no matter what it is that the government does one way or the other, it's difficult times. But I don't think it's ever a bad thing for us to stop. Particularly right now, as we look at Christmas and look at the founders of Christmas. Stop and look at the people where Christmas came from, where it all started and what they went through. And of course I'm talking about Joseph and Mary. When you look at what Christmas meant to them, what they went through, Luke chapter 2 tells us that it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered or taxed. And a census took place while Quinerius was governor of Syria, so all went to be registered, everyone, to his own city. Joseph also went out from Galilee under the city of Nazareth, under Judea, under the city of David, which is called Bethlehem because he was of the house in the lineage of David to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife who was with child. And so it was that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them in the inn. You know, and you stop to think here a little bit. Now you go back and put yourself in this place of this couple. They're having, first of all, we'll get more into the other technicalities with it, but here on the surface, you got a couple there with a baby. She's nine months pregnant. He's probably, you know, they're trying to get to town, trying to get there. She's feeling the labor pain. She knows it's close. They both know it's near, you know, and here when they arrive, there is no place where they get into town, no place for them to stay. And you know, when you stop to think about this, you know what I mean? You know what I mean, Joseph? Couldn't you have emailed ahead and called somebody or something? You got a pregnant wife. There's going to bring forth the birth of the Messiah. And it appears Joseph didn't even get an online reservation or anything. Didn't even try the internet, probably. But at any rate, the thing is, obviously I'm just kidding with that one, but when you do look, here they've arrived. How many of you women, you know, would like to arrive some place in this situation about to deliver, and they're your husband, is at a loss as to what to do. There's no room anywhere. Hasn't, can't make any plans, can't get you in anywhere. And then not just simply on the human aspect, but when you look at it spiritually in the sense God is sovereign. God is powerful. Couldn't he pull a few strings? Couldn't somebody else not arrive at the end or someplace there to stay so that Mary could at least deliver in some sort of a room? Couldn't there have been some compassionate woman that was seen, Mary, about to deliver and say, here, come take our room. We will help you. We will be with you. And yet at the same time, here none of this happened. And so when you look at this, even there's a terrible mess and a lot of confusion is going on, or in reality, the birth of Jesus was exactly the way God the Father wanted it. It was exactly the way God the Son, the Lord Jesus wanted it. And it was a way that Joseph and Mary had been prepared for this, whatever it was that came their way. You see, already a lot had really been achieved within them, spiritually, even by the point of the delivery. They had already learned that Christmas comes with a very high price. There's nothing simple about it. There's nothing cheap about it. And here, when you would look at it all in a sense that they had already paid out, you might say, that they had already gone through, because when you would look at it and what was Christmas to them, well, first of all, Christmas was a time of separation. You know, when we all know the scenario, when you put together Matthew and Luke and the stories there, piece it together, you realize here's a young, godly couple, both of them very just, very godly, very righteous. That's pointed out in the Scriptures. They're in love. They're engaged. They're planning their marriage together, planning out their lives just like any young couple would be doing and all the dreams there of the little house and the little white picket fence with, you know, roses on the side and a swing set in the back for the kids or whatever else they pictured their life back in those days, so what it would be is they got in and they settled down. And here, and they no doubt ought all the excitement, all the planning, we're going to get married and everything was quite wonderful until Gabriel gets involved. Until God gets involved and all of a sudden next to, you know, God says, Mary, I've got a plan for your life. It's not the one you've planned out so far. It's a different plan entirely. And here you're going to have a sudden. You're going to bring forth the Messiah. And then Mary will look at how she responded in a little while, but here Mary, then of course we find when she goes to Joseph and tells Joseph about this, he doesn't believe that. Absolutely not. No way he is going to go for this story whatsoever that here Mary, a virgin, is going to have a child without a man involved. He doesn't believe it for a moment. And Mary ends up going and doing what a lot of women have done at times like that, events like that. She went to stay with relatives. She goes to Zachariah and Elizabeth House and with them who in Elizabeth there at that time she's six months pregnant with John the Baptist. And there Mary finds some spiritual fellowship at any rate. Something there to fill the emptiness and wondering about life and what was happening. Meantime Joseph back home, he's tossing and turning night after night, struggling with this. And he had decided to secretly put Mary away not wanting to bring her family into disgrace. And there is he's going back and forth, can't believe, can't agree, can't go along then. Finally, Gabriel speaks to Joseph, tells him it's true. And here with that spiritual revelation finally there Joseph he can go to Mary. And though he does not know her intimately until after the birth of Jesus, but oh what a price they paid. What a price it was when you think there of first for Mary being willing to separate her entire life separated like it was. To surrender her life away from everything that's precious and dear. Imagine this struggle within her giving up Joseph, giving up marriage, family. Every plan that she had ever had for all of her life it's completely at least confusion at the very least. She had absolutely no idea how anything would ever work out again for her for the rest of her life. It's over. Everything has changed. She had to be able to release her entire life and future into God's hands. Oh what a price Christmas was to marry. And you know with many people I wonder how many here right now just because of all the events going on in the world, going on in our country. How many here? Maybe you know your business has shut down. You're out of work. There's nothing. Everything has shut down. You've got bills to pay. You've got home. You've got all these things over you. Everything has happened where it's completely out of your hands. You have no issue, no control over it all. And here for Christmas for us. It's the same thing many times. We don't know the future. What's going to happen in 2021? What's going on in the world? What's going on with our future? What's going on? Will I go back to work? Will we keep our home? How are we going to take care of our family? What is there out there? And sometimes I think God allows events in our life where absolutely everything is tossed up in the air and it's an absolute confusion and there is no certainty at all that we can plan on. And so often it's times just like that where there's a wonderful opportunity in our life to be able to come and say, Lord, I trust you. You know, we tell the Lord often times, how many times, Lord, I love you. We sing, I worship you. We sing these songs, lift our hands, praise Him. Say, Lord, you're enough. You're everything to me. But many times there's really not much on the table being negotiated. It's just kind of a song. Not that we don't believe it, we don't mean it. But sometimes in life God sets things up that there really is something on the table. There really is something going on. There really is an issue out there that is bigger than our life. And that's a wonderful opportunity for us to say, Lord, I tell you all the time, I love you. I tell you all the time, I believe in you. I tell you all the time, I'm yours. But most of the time there's not much there, but right now it seems like my whole life is sitting out there. I don't know where we're going and what we're doing. But to be able then to turn and say, but Lord, be it unto me, as Mary did according to thy will. Joseph had to learn the same thing. He had to be willing to separate as well from Mary. He had to go through the same process in his own way. Matthew 1.18 says, And now the birth of Jesus Christ was as followed. After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Then Joseph the husband, being a just man, not wanting to put her up to a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. But while he thought about these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream saying, Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived and hers conceived of the Holy Spirit. And here, Joseph, he had to toss, he had to turn. He had to come to the same issue, the same thing. Can you imagine, it's interesting to me, Mary coming and telling Joseph the story. Joseph, I've got something to tell you. It's the most exciting thing in the world. Really, what's that? I'm going to have a baby. What? Yes, God. God told me, an angel came, appeared unto me, told me I am with child, and unto the child is of the Spirit of God. It's a miraculous virgin birth. Can you imagine Joseph looking at her? Can you imagine his mind spinning, you know, coming to Mary, Mary, come on. What are you telling me? Mary, I've known you for years. You're a sweet girl. You're a wonderful girl. You're a righteous girl. I don't know what you've done and what's happened, but come on, tell me. What is it that's going on here? Something, you're pregnant. Yes, I'm pregnant. And you say that God did this. Yes. And an angel came to you. You and an angel talk, yes. And how many times, you suppose, they went over the story. How many times she went back and forth and back and forth. How many times he asked her again, tell me more about this angel. What do you look like? Brad Pitt? You know what I mean? When you rationally think, this woman has a child in her. There's only one way they come into the world. She knew a man. And he can't believe her. But he's absolutely stunned because he thought he knew her so well. And now he's actually struggling. I don't know what's going on. And it's interesting to me, one of the things when you stop to think about this, obviously Joseph and Mary spend a lot of time together. They're betrothed. They're engaged. They're planning out their lives. And it's interesting. Gabriel, you know, you could have saved a lot of hassle. Why didn't you just tell them both together? Why didn't you just win their out one time and just tell them, guess what, Joseph, guess what, Mary? Reveal it spiritually to both of them at the same time together. How simple, how wonderful it would have been. They loved each other. The angel appeared and did it. And here, though, instead this confusion that God allowed. I wonder how many times Mary tearfully trying to tell Joseph and he not going for it for a moment. Joseph being a godly man, a righteous man, we're told, a just man. Not willing to put her family to open shame decides, well, I'm going to put her away secretly, but I obviously can't go on. Somebody has done what she's done and lied to me about it. And here, when you would look at this, you know, just think, why not tell them together? Why do they have to go through these months struggle? And you know, the interesting thing is, because very first thing is, is that Christ, Christmas is personal. Christmas is something that is between you and Jesus, first of all, would regardless of if anybody or everybody or nobody, anybody else on the planet, this is between you and him. This is his call of his life into you and into me and into my heart, into my life and everybody else must take back seat. Every other relationship has got to be set aside. And here, ultimately, I imagine you would also notice here that I think Mary probably one of the most credible, believable, honest people you could ever meet and yet at the same time, no matter what she said and how well she said it and how sincere she was, you realize the only way that Joseph was going to have anything happen is when he had the same spiritual intervention she did. You don't talk people into heaven. You don't argue them over dinner into heaven. You don't sit there and just tell them over look at me, look at me, you know me. When I tell you I'm a Christian and Christ came into my life you can tell him till you're blue in the face but it never does a thing until the Spirit of God does the same thing within them as he did in you and he did in me. And here, there, to realize that Christmas is first and foremost, oh, it's costly. In one sense you could look at that. It's above all though it's you and Jesus, even if it's nobody else. And then the interesting thing is because also notice there, why not, you know, not only tell Joseph and Mary, why not tell everybody? Now, you know, look at the scenario that we're looking at here. Joseph and Mary are called back to where? To the house of their lineage. They're all the world as they're being taxed. All, everybody's being called back. Thus we're told in Bethlehem all of their relatives. The city is filled with relatives. Cousins, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, all these family members. And yet Joseph and Mary, why didn't you go to one of their houses? Why didn't you go to a relative? They're all around. Why aren't you there once you're knocking on the door? Why don't you go in? And here Caesar commanded them, you're all there. The town is filled with family, with friends, all these relationships. And yet at the same time, they're Joseph and Mary. They just go first of all trying to get a room at an inn. Just to pay for the room. And then when they can't get that, we're going to go, we'll be in a manger. They'll just give us there, out there in the stable. And here when you would look at this, you think, why is this? Here Joseph and Mary show up. Uncle Abraham's house. Uncle Abraham opens the, Joseph, Joseph, my boy, how are you? Good to see you. I miss you so much. I understand you're going to get married and you've got this beautiful woman. Oh, my. Oh, my. Joseph. Joseph, what have you done? I mean, here you realize they can't go to anybody. Nobody's going to believe them. Joseph, oh, hey, Uncle Abraham, guess what? I've got the most wonderful news to tell you. She's a child of God. But the child of God. Miraculously, the spirit of God has done this. No, no, she's a virgin. Joseph. Joseph, what are you doing? They realized there it was something there was a time of being willing to all the friends, all the relatives, all the people that you wouldn't maybe be able to have a wonderful time of a re-gathering there is maybe many of others you're not included. You don't fit in. Joseph knew as well as he had to struggle with it until God reveals it to others. You can't pound it into them. You can't convince anybody of anything until the Lord convinces of them. But here's the process when we step back. What is God doing? He's looking at them individually first and then corporately as they would reveal to them where they had to come where Joseph in America would say the Lord is enough. He is enough for us. And then there's more to trust him for. That's just not it. We're told in Matthew 2.13 he says, Behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, take the young child and his mother and flee to Egypt and stay there until I bring you word, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. He arose and he took the young child and his mother at night and departed in Egypt and was there until the death of Herod. Now, here's Joseph. They're surrendering themselves to the Lord individually and then together. And then they find themselves that separated from that, separated from their, you know, struggling through their marriage, getting that right, and then there's their friends, there's their family, there's their home. And now God tells them I want you to go down to a complete alien country. Where as a young Jewish boy God be welcome. You culturally would not fit in. You'll find it very difficult perhaps there because you have to leave because there is a corrupt powerful human being who wants to kill the life that's in you. Kill the one that is with you. And he seeks his life and now, you know, you just give your life to the Lord and then next to you know your marriage is in jeopardy then next to you know your family and friends are off the chart and then next to you know, get out of your town, get out of your country. That's a fine how do you do for Christmas? That's a fine thing to go through. And then if that isn't enough, you know there, I mean, when you look how we can live, how can we make it down there? And then on top of that, Mary had a reputation for the rest of her life. Many questioned. Many did not believe her reputation there. They hear that Mary pregnant before she's married and there was always this question about who the father was. Was it Joseph and they just before they were married? Well, you know, whatever. But here before it was, who is the father? Where did Jesus come from? One time the Pharisees in a very heated argument with Jesus, they told him, they said, we know where we came from. We do not know where you came from. We know who our father is. We know our lineage. We do not know yours. You see, Mary had to be willing to have other people look at her. Many people think that you, you know, you're odd. There's something about you. You become a Christian and you believe that stuff. You believe that pie in the sky. You believe there that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin and came into the world. And he's the son of God, dialing across, rose from the dead, sits in heaven, intercedes for you. One day he's going to come and take you home to be with him and you're going to be with him forever. You seriously believe that? You're a, you're a watt job. I don't believe that stuff. I believe in here and now. Right here what we have now and this and that and you're just some sort of an escapist or whatever it is. But there, you know, somebody that is being willing the price of Christmas. But here the opposite side is not only that you're separated from and that's what it was in one sense. They were separated from, separated from, separated from. It's like a complete separation of everything you could possibly be separated from and that was that they might be separated for Jesus. Here was something there that Jesus is looking at them. Joseph and Mary are you willing to give up the world for me? Am I enough? Am I enough that all of these other things that everybody else has a right to take for granted? Everybody else? I want these things. I want my friends. I want my family. I want a good time. I want to rejoice. I want all these other things. I want a future. I want a job. I want everything settled. Are you willing Joseph and Mary to give up everything for me? You know, the secular world looks at Christmas although they separate, it's interesting all these people that don't believe in it they still spend billions of dollars on it giving gifts to people in exchange for an occasion they don't even believe in. Talk about whack jobs, you know to me I'm going to sit there and say you're going broke, you're going in debt doing all this to celebrate something you don't even believe in it at all. You don't even want a Christmas card that you send or something. You've taken Jesus out of it. You don't believe in Jesus, you don't have anything to do with it, it's just another holiday. That's like trying to take the 4th of July, but there was no independence that ever happened. Celebrating Indian Independence Day, it's just the 4th of July, it's Firework Day. That's all I know. No. Christmas is the birth of Christ. But here this is what it's to be for all people. Jesus He made it very clear. He said, if any man come after me now that's any man woman boy girl out of any century generation kindred tribe and tongue, anybody. Jesus said, if they come after me and hate not his mother, father, wife, children, yea even his own life. He cannot be not my disciple. Now Jesus obviously he never taught anybody to hate anybody. Quite the opposite. We're to love our enemies. But here when he says there if you're going to come after me he says there that we should be one that we if there is anybody in the world that has more influence in our life than Jesus Christ we are to hate the relationship. Not the person or love the person. But Lord how is it that my mother, my father, my wife, my children, my own life, anybody around me has more influence in me, more control over me speaks into my life with more authority than the one who created me forgave me, died for me, rose for me and here Jesus there he looks there he says I, I, if you really want to follow me you've got to be prepared to lay everything in everybody aside and then your world will come together. You know what Jesus said if anybody come after me he says I will repay him a hundred fold and he said interestingly enough in this life to come and in this life and in the life to come. Now obviously we being Americans and capitalists we think oh if I give up a hundred bucks I mean God's going to give me a hundred times. No. The reason we want the hundred bucks is the security or the pleasure or the fulfillment. Well whatever it is that we maybe give up on this level the Lord says I'll repay you what you have will be a hundred fold of it. The hope, the peace, the joy the security, the stability when you trust me and you put me and you're willing to walk away from anything else I'll repay you. I'm a debtor to no man if you can look and say I'll pay whatever that price is and here it's this wonderful separation unto God. This wonderful separation there into His presence can you today let me read to you what Mary said could you say this in your heart hear Mary when Gabriel tells him she's going to have a son and Mary said my soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit is rejoiced and God my Savior for He has regarded the lowliest state of His maid servant for henceforth all generations will call me blessed for He who is mighty has done great things for me and holy is His name and His mercy is on those who fear Him from generation to generation He has shown strength with His arm He has scattered the proud and the imaginations of their heart He has put down the mighty from their thrones and exalted the lowly He has filled the hungry with good things and the rich He has sent away empty Mary got it she got it right off she looked there and she did like this you're offering me if I'm just whatever it is that is so wonderful in this world that your heart is set upon that seems so tremendous but you're offering me this blessing done deal I'm in I can't believe it it wasn't for her like can I go weigh this thing out I gotta think this thing over give me 24 hours I gotta talk to Joseph I gotta see if he'll go with me no she was able to look at the Lord and say my soul magnifies my spirit rejoices henceforth I'll be called blessed and you know when somebody looks at you come in for all eternity I'll look let's say you're blessed Christ is in your life the satisfaction of the heart that it has there that here though somebody may be despised or rejected or misunderstood whatever it is but they know who Jesus Christ really is and whatever the cost whatever the rejection Jesus in the heart is everything Christmas may be lonely Christmas may be difficult Christmas may be difficult Christmas season may be a struggle but to stop and think as far as God is concerned as far as the Lord Jesus is concerned you may have nothing but a little stable and nothing but a pile of straw sticking there in a manger and it's just you and him and he says that's just the way I planned it that's all I want is it enough for you can you be happy with that can you be at peace with that and here the wonderful thing is is even through life Joseph and Mary when they of course did and responded and followed and there as it settled in what was going on within their heart and their life and they still had the price to pay from step to step process to process it lingered with them through their lives but the next thing you know now they're going down they're going to be half to Egypt what are we going to do what are we going to make a living Hebrew boy down there not likely I'm not going to fit in there Matthew 2 1 now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem in the days of Herod the king behold wise men from the east that came to Jerusalem here out of nowhere nowhere these men show up presumed to be three we don't know we're never told a number we just assume there was three gifts that were given so that's probably a fair assumption but it says that when they came into the house that they saw the child with Mary his mother and they fell down and worshiped him and when they had opened up their treasures they presented gifts to him gold frankincense and myrrh gold which is always a picture of worship of royalty frankincense is in the priestly duties of intercession within the temple and myrrh and bombing for his death they looked at Jesus and they saw it there are the gifts that they came and there it says an angel there the Lord appeared into Joseph in a dream take the child down to Egypt and hear the Lord miraculously I'll provide for you I'll provide for you and for us when we would look at this year and look at the world and look at things around this to be able to say Jesus are you enough of a provision eternally but also to trust you to get us through the things ahead of us the season ahead of us we're going down to Egypt we're going down to something we in our country I don't know where we're going I'm no prophet like that I just doesn't look good to me you can only print up so many trillion dollars and then it's kind of not worth much anymore but here when we look there and we have Jesus and realize you can't print up joy like that peace like that hope like that here is the Lord took care of them supplied their needs according to his riches in glory you know earlier when I began the message I submitted to you that the first Christmas was not a bunch of just tragic mistakes where Joseph didn't plan city wasn't ready no place at the end it wasn't just a bunch of mistakes but it was something there that it was exactly for Joseph and Mary the way God planned it and may I suggest to you that your Christmas is no different where you're at right now is no different at all it's Jesus behind it saying trust me it's an opportunity for us to come and say Lord you are enough you are enough you will get us through and so though I think you know many of us again I don't know all the things where you're going through what you're going through but I'm sure that if it's not you you've got friends you've got relatives you've got neighbors you got people all around you going through incredible things but in these times to be able to look and say Jesus I'm honored to be able to tell you I understand Christmas I get it what it's really about forgive me that I've let other superficial aspects of it frustrate me or confuse me I was hurt because the family didn't agree I've been frustrated because I can't get them all together around the table I'm hurt I'm hurt because some are away aren't following you I'm struggling because they don't know how to pay the bills I'm struggling because I'm just trying to what's up next but to be able to take all of that and say but beyond all of that I love you and I'm yours and you will get me through that's Christmas

Alrighty, let me check this out here in full. Oh wait, what the beginning is missing? Hmm Just double-checking wait, I don't see anything in the email I'm touching a new version of dragon falling power. So it's just the dragon fall. Okay. I hope you don't cut out The beginnings. It's awesome. This is so cool. By the way, like every time I see this Like I love your camera move. I like just the amount of shake Even like those shapes are cool in terms of just the energy and the dragon coming in is cool The only thing that it feels a bit mechanical in its turn Right there was it's it's we see it like that which is cool And then it turns And then that's that now. I know this is still rough, but As you continue, I mean this going to be Like also with the fall like that, I will probably also probably changing my colors here Bring in those wings a bit further back. So it's not like this is the resistance And so that wing would be if it's here would at least drape this way But we'll have some cool flutter And then for that turn what I would do is have like a nice lead with the head I don't know much how you can see in terms of eyes But the head would turn the neck would crane over and then give you that kind of a curvature into this And then potentially like more curved like this feels like it's barely able to look there It's a bit of more for the c-curve so that the head can look up at her And then tweaking these shapes throughout the turn so we don't end up with the sticks here So you get some maybe through the flutter we can do some changes there This goes up tail straighter. I know you know all of this. I'm just mentioning what I'm seeing here But in terms of the timing and when what happens I like it Because she we look at her and it could also have a moment You know if you really want to lead where she you know She might have some looks and as we talked about the changes there And then a big eyed art and then a bit of a head turn to lead the audience over like what is she looking at? so we are ready to watch so that we're not like So we're not resting on her for too long where we go like, okay Well, I've seen her and I'm losing her face. So I'm just going to start looking over here And then you might be here and go, whoa, it takes me all this time to look over there So like a head turn could really prime the audience to go. Okay. Okay. What am I looking for? Oh, that's cool Definitely still fast, but I still buy it I buy that Then you know, you'll have a nice curve in the body here with that turn You can even have like a slight stretch on the on the feet here It's like a little cheat so she doesn't disappear from here to here And that's kind of that was even the ending seems cut right, but it's cool again. I love I love What you have here? Where is it? I love those clowns I just love everything about your shot. I have to say I I'm always it just feels so like a shot It doesn't feel like an exercise and that's what I love about it That's always kind of I mean, I will uh ask you in the mail But I would love to use your Your versions or only the final version if you want to if I could share it out with my students in the future Like this is just such a good example of This is a shot like an exercise body mechanics without, you know, creature aspects and everything But it looks like a shot for a movie. It's just a cool example Anyway, I'm leaving at that. I mean the rest is good. I like where you head it Like that'll change right at the end there like all those imperfections I think are great for the flat mechanics and you know turbulence and all kinds of Air stuff that goes on. So I think that's kind of that. I mean, I don't see anything else It's just one file in this section. So yeah, I'll leave it at that. Thanks All right, there's an email you can sign up you can start whenever you want You can submit whatever you want you get 16 submissions either way and like and subscribe would be awesome. All right. Thank you

Druidry: The Inner Grove and Outer Grove
|
I just wanted to share a bit about my Druidry practice and the work I do in a Grove. Inner Grove and Outer Grove work can be and feel very different, but both are vital to a Druid's practice.

Hi, my name is Danny, and welcome to Esoteric Moment. Today, I want to talk about the difference between inner grove work versus outer grove work. Both is a word that can mean many different things to many different druids, and it kind of depends on your personal practice, where you learn druidry and if you belong to any order. So keep in mind that I don't represent all druidry, just my path and the druids that I've worked with. Grove can mean many different things. Typically, it can mean the group of people that you're working with for rituals or celebrations during the different seasons. It can be used a bit like the word coven. Grove can also mean the actual physical place that you're doing ritual at, that you're working in. And that grove is typically a grove of trees. Perhaps it's a circle of oak trees on a hilltop. Maybe it's whatever little tree you can look at on your balcony in an urban setting. It might be that outdoor space. Maybe you're even lucky enough to have a stone circle to work in. That might be your grove. Grove can also mean your inner sanctuary. It can be the place that you retreat to in your mind, in the other world. And we're going to go into the difference between that inner place, that realm that you've got you within yourself and whatever outer space you're using to do work. Your inner grove is a place that is easily accessible no matter where you physically are. A place that you can retreat to for meditation, for healing, for meeting with your ancestors, for work with guides, connection to physical mundane places you might never go to. It is really whatever inner workings you do. For me, the inner grove is part of the other world. It is that bridge realm between the mundane physical world and the things that lie beyond. The ancestors realms, other parts of the universe. When I go into the other world, I physically take time in the mundane world to create a sacred space, to prepare myself physically and mentally for relaxing, for really doing the work that's ahead of me. There is some preparatory work that I do. When I go into this inner world, I am looking for the solitude and peace that, for me, my inner grove starts with a wooded circle that is right at the beginning of the forest. And there are many paths from this inner grove in the forest. There are paths that lead to teachers that I've met, guides. There are paths that lead to other sacred spaces or destinations in the inner world. There's a path that leads to my personal place of power. It's kind of a center working space that I can use as a touchstone, a foundation for what other journeys I might have ahead of me. Sometimes that might be the only place that I stay in the other world and in my inner grove. Sometimes I work outside of that space, but it is really kind of the container and beginning part for whatever inner journey and work that I do. It's highly useful to cultivate this inner space in order to go deeper and allow yourself a touchstone. The inner world and your inner grove is going to be a reflection of you personally. It is going to be filled with the symbols, the sense, the sensations that you need in order to delve deeper into your practice. And it'll change as you change and your practice changes. One of the things I appreciate about working with OBOD is that they have familiar pathways into getting into inner grove work. And they have many practices and ideas that can help people develop this regular routine on how to reach this place. But they're very careful not to corrupt your inner world. They don't force upon you this vision that it has to look one way or the other that it has to be in the woods or it has to be on a hilltop or that it has to have Celtic music playing in the background. You know, it's your inner landscape. You want to make sure that it is always your space and that the ideas and influences around you impact that space, but don't turn it into someone else's landscape. It needs to always remain a reflection of you. And I'm not saying that means you control every aspect of this inner space. I really believe firmly that the inner grove is connected to this other world and that it is the bridge point that allows you to go in all of these mystical directions. And there's a lot that you don't control in that space and in that realm, but it is still a reflection of you. So it's important to not try and control it too much or, you know, create some vision that you think it has to be and put it there. Inner grove is different from outer grove work. Your outer grove work might be in a natural place or it might be on your balcony, but the key is that it is firmly rooted in the mundane world. Doesn't mean that there isn't magic and doesn't mean that it isn't sacred, but that's the whole point. You are firmly rooted in the natural world, in the physical space, in the eating and breathing and living and dying that is all around us. But outer grove work is also where you probably are meeting with other druids or teachers or even your gardening club, whatever community that you have around you that helps you connect and stay grounded in the physical natural world. That's going to be a part of your grove work, your outer grove work. The outer grove work is focused on community, connection and the natural world. Both the inner grove and the outer grove take dedication. You cannot neglect one for the other. You need to visit both regularly. The inner landscape that you cultivate and your connection to self is directly related to the outer world, the community you form and the relationships that you engage in. If you overcompensate in your area of self development, you eventually reach a point where without the foundation of community and relationships, you will suffer and your practice will suffer. Vice versa, if you focus only on community organization and your outer grove work, you plant a million trees, you cultivate all the natural spaces and you are focused purely in the mundane natural world and that connection there, you will reach a point where you suffer because the personal inner work hasn't been done and you won't have the energy and strength to continue growing in your community and the outer grove work you participate in. Also keep in mind that one might be more pagan seeming to you than the other. Your inner landscape might be full of mysticism and very magical feeling or it might be the five minutes that you meditate every night and you say what you're grateful for. The outer grove work might seem the most magical to you for you do high ritual and you wear druid robes and you learn how to do public ritual or you're planting oak trees or connecting with the Oum in their physical real breathing forms outside. You're developing community. That might be where the power and magic and growth lies for you. It doesn't matter what shape or form these two workings take in your life. That's not the important part. The important part is that both are a reflection of you and that you develop and work within both the inner and outer landscapes equally as an ebb and flow at all times but generally we want to make sure that our inner grove and our outer grove have just the same type of dedication and enthusiasm that really makes your practice what it can be. In the comments below I would love to hear whether you feel like your practice focuses more on work in the inner grove or whether it focuses more on the outer grove. Right now whatever moment in your life or practice your feeling I'd love to hear kind of which part is more of an emphasis in your life. Thanks for watching and as always may you find peace in the sacred grove.

Proudly We Hail! From New York City, where the American stage begins, here is another program with a cast of outstanding players and featuring less daily. Public service time has been made available by this station for your Army and your Air Force to bring you this story. As Proudly We Hail! The 150th anniversary of West Point. Our story is entitled Castle on the Hudson. A tale of firm tradition and warm nostalgia. Of men who lived the motto, beauty, honor, country. Our first act curtain will rise in a moment. From the towering ramparts on the Hudson, hundreds of splendid Army and Air Force officers are graduated each year. Many of these officers rose from the ranks because qualified and listed men of the armed forces are eligible for appointment to West Point. An opportunity for a distinguished career for those young men with ability and ambition. Yes, today's United States Army and United States Air Force offer much for your future. Why not check with your local United States Army and United States Air Force Recruiting Station for full details. They'll be glad to help you. And now with less statement featured as narrator, your Army and your Air Force present the Proudly We Hail! production, Castle on the Hudson. Many long years before the brave Dutchman came in his tiny ship called the Half Moon. Many long years before he touched the island called Manhattan and his countrymen paid for it with the sum of $24. Many long generations before he sailed northward up the mighty river called Hudson in his name. Generations to be reckoned by the rings of tree trunks, by the marks and sandstone cliffs. The mighty river poured its waters into the sea. Calm, undisturbed, it flows down still from the noble Adirondacks past the spurs of the Cascals reflecting the bold mountains on its surface. History has flowed here with the river. The Dutch came after the Indians with their legends of little men playing at nine pins in the bordering hills. The English followed the Dutch sailing up the river to defend the valley in the growing city at its foot against invasion from the north. Later, mad Anthony Wayne smashed through the breastworks at Stony Point. Once George in Washington looked down in the flowing water. Major Andre died here and the honor of Benedict Arnold with him. Still, the great river flowed undisturbed. Still, the great river was a pathway of history. The soldiers knew the importance of this valley in those days. Not its palisaded beauty, but this simple fact. Who controls the Hudson Valley controls the colonies, controls the United States. Who controls the Hudson Valley controls a pathway down from Canada to the sea and splits New England from the other states. And so they built some forts, Clinton and Putnam on a height, a table land just south of Storm King Mountain and the Western Bank. The river turns here flowing eastward a little before changing back toward the south. Who holds this point of land controls the Hudson Valley. The old-time generals knew this and built their forts on West Point. More than our revolutionary history stems from there today. We may say with pride that most of the military leaders in all our wars from 1846 first crank of military knowledge there where the Long Gray Line begins at West Point, the Long Gray Line controls us one man across the plain above the Hudson, across the pages of our history. The Long Gray Line, white cross belts gleaming, buttons shining, side arms glistening in the valley sun. The Long Gray Line that has become a gray stone wall between this nation and her enemies. The Long Gray Line that is tradition at West Point, that is tradition in the hearts of all Americans. In 1783, one Alexander Hamilton received a letter. I strongly favor the establishment at West Point. I have a regiment of artillery for instructing a certain number of young gentlemen in the theory and art of war, George Washington. On March 16th, 1802, the Congress of the United States at the insistence of President Thomas Jefferson provided for a corps of engineers to include ten cadets and ordered. The said corps, when so established, shall be stationed at West Point in the state of New York to institute a military academy. That is the law, passed in 1802, the law upon which rests today's military academy. Today a broad road sweeps from the landing at South Dock past the Great Administration Building and all around the post. Thayer Road, it's called, for the slim young man who climbed a muddy pathway from the landing to the plain above, one day in 1807. That day in 1807, Sylvainus Thayer came to West Point. Well, well, sir? Can that Sylvainus Thayer reporting, sir? And your paper is missed there? Yes, sir. I see. Well, all in order. You'll find your quarters in the long barracks. Nothing very sumptuous, just a mattress, but enough for a soldier. Textbooks will be issued you in the morning after Rebelly. Your uniforms will be made in New York. It will reach you as soon as possible. That is all, Mr. Thayer. Thank you, sir. Sylvainus Thayer fought the driving wind across the plain to the long barracks. He fought the wind all winter long and far into what should have been the spring. Sylvainus Thayer, honor student from Dartmouth College, found the course of study at West Point in 1807 much easier to overcome than the cold of the Hudson Valley. But one year later in 1808... To Sylvainus Thayer, this 23rd day of February 1808, this commission as Second Lieutenant in the Corps of Engineers, United States Army. This was a young country in 1808. The job of the engineers was outlined by the work of Lieutenant Thayer, surveying fortifications in Connecticut, inspecting fortifications in Connecticut, building fortifications in Massachusetts, ordnance officer for the Port of New York until 1812. Lieutenant Thayer saw much of the war of 18012, saw too much of the bungling, the difficulties, the squabbles, yes, squabbles, between the few regulars and the many militiamen, saw possible victories turned into defeats by the errors of untrained officers, saw almost certain defeats turned into victories by the few officers who had been trained, even slightly as he had been at West Point. Lieutenant Thayer came out of the war of 1812 to request of James Monroe, Secretary of War May I have permission and the wherewithal to travel through Europe, particularly in France to study methods of military education, systems of fortification, etc. Also, if possible, the acquisition of a library of military texts and maps would be of great value to the development of the military academy. Permission granted. Sylvainus Thayer was breveted a major for his wartime services and he went to Europe where he traveled, studied, learned, acquired the library he spoke of. And then in the spring of 1817 Major Sylvainus Thayer you will repair to West Point and deliver the enclosed order to Captain Partridge and you will take command of the post and superintendent of the military academy. Captain Partridge will deliver to you all internal regulations and standing orders. Peggy Swift, Brigadier General Corps of Engineers On July 28, 1817 Major Thayer climbed the long path from the boat landing once more and the hopes of West Point climbed with him. He noticed changes as he climbed new buildings, new uniforms introduced since he left the points of nine years before. He noticed too the tall shambling figure in the blue coat that emerged from headquarters. Major Thayer spoke first. Good evening Captain Partridge. You are reporting to me? Yes sir. I brought these orders for you. Very well. Let me have them. Captain Alden Partridge West Point. On receipt of this you will deliver to Major Sylvainus Thayer U.S. engineers the command of the post of West Point and the superintendent of the military academy. J.G. Swift, Brigadier General. Mess hall is over there to your left Major. I shall be departing on my annual leave in the morning. Change had come to West Point and progress with it in the person of Sylvainus Thayer. Here was the beginning the real beginning of the long day line. In that slim young twenty nine year old Major a man with ideas. From Sylvainus Thayer came the precepts. Right in the cadet corps is essential. The best possible teachers must be obtained. A system of tactical officers, officers who will live in barracks with the cadets will be originated. In order to instill army tradition in the cadet corps a commandant of cadets will supervise. Honor and gentlemanly conduct are a tradition of the military service. We shall maintain and strengthen that tradition. The commandant of cadets and his tactical officers the strengthening of the honor system the best teachers obtainable three basic matters that are still in existence at West Point today began in 1817 by Sylvainus Thayer rightfully called the father of the modern military academy. The foundation was laid in the years just after 1817 the foundation of tradition pride and honor that makes the great castle on the Hudson shore a symbol of the nation's strength and more so of the nation's heart. But where young Americans spend their youth and train to serve their country in both war and peace there must be more than solemn pride to make them love their work there must be laughter, music, mischief and even so at West Point too. There's the story the legend and the song of Denny Havens fill your glasses, fellows and stand up in a row through singing sentimentality we're going far to go Old Denny Havens came to West Point in 1804 to work for the general storekeeper on the post the authority's attention was drawn to him one day when he was caught supplying liquor to cadets Denny was off the post by nightfall but not very far away he stayed around the neighborhood at Highland Falls and in 1812 he did his tour of service for his country in the early 1820s he turned up again and for 12 years was a well-known figure on the post until Sylvainus there dispossessed him once again in 1832 then he opened up his little tavern and many were the legendary knights spent there by Edgar Allan Poe, James Whistler and a thousand others whose names are history but whose aching feet were rested on the settle there at Denny Havens there were stories by the hundreds surrounding fabulous Denny in his tavern fabulous Denny whose flip picture is preserved in the offices club at West Point whose legend is prized by every graduate whose famous song is deep in the hearts of all the men who once were part of the long grey line marching on the plane above the Hudson Less Damon featured as narrator in the Proudly We Hail production Castle on the Hudson will return in just a moment for the second act and now a word to ambitious patriotic young men of America Your United States Army and United States Air Force needs qualified volunteers men with courage and initiative men to tread the pages of tomorrow's history books with the marching step of today's ideals America's strength depends on you what are you doing about it check with your local United States Army and United States Air Force Recruiting Station today for full details and how you may best serve your country the need is urgent enlist now you are listening to Proudly We Hail and now we present the second act of Castle on the Hudson One thing was truth and Sylvainas Thayer knew it No army can be truly efficient unless it recognizes the policy of continuation the banner of the officer's corps must be passed from hand to hand from generation to generation In 1824 Major Thayer watched the graduating class parade that his mind's eye was watching one boy alone Dennis Hart Mayen Class of 1824 second of the great teachers at West Point Dennis Mayen followed Thayer's trail across Europe in the service of the nation and the army In the meantime, tradition, sentiment grew even as the grey stone buildings grew at West Point as the grey castles rose above the Hudson dominating the river and the valley Thayer's name was legend in that valley but even the best must move on to other fields the room was spread early in 1833 Thayer was leaving one day an old farm wagon bearing an even older farmer grew up outside the superintendent's quarters I oughtily saw you driving up We haven't seen you in a long time Well, busy time of year over to Butternut Falls Spring Planting, you know What's this you have here? That's what I come about So when it's there you're going to leave us I'm an old man and I'll be going along soon too I come over here to ask you to let me plant this Elm sapling on the post here so that well, it can live and grow long after we both gone as a kind of well remembrance of both of us I'll pick the spot for you myself, Mr. Cronk and you shall have a detail of soldiers to help you plant it Hold on a minute, Thayer This tree I'll plant myself with my own hands I take the privilege of an old man, sir to make this tribute so that you'll know the friendship the whole country around here feels for a great and true man Today, 119 years later Farmer Cronk's tree still stands the largest of a clump of Elms in front of quarters 145 and 146 No one knew when Sylvainus Thayer would leave West Point except the man himself No demonstrations, leave takings blaring bands for this simple man She's on time tonight, gentlemen Yes, sir, more prompt than usual Can't buy the castle Goodbye, gentlemen Colonel, we shall meet again sometime No doubt, lines all clear, sir No bugles blowing No farewell cheers Just the jingle of a bell and the rush of water in a Hudson Valley twilight Sylvainus Thayer left West Point Left it much greater than he found it Left it a part of American life forever His best memorial perhaps The sturdy elm tree spreading its branches ever higher with the long gray line marches on the plain above the Hudson Dennis Hart Mayen picked up the torch of knowledge and progress Never superintendent, he remained the professor always making his lectures, recording them in books bending the minds of the young men who sat before him into the channels of military thought But soon his students were busy part of the South where American armies fought in 1946 The graduates who fought through Mexico with Winfield, Scott and Zachary Taylor numbered in their midst Lieutenant O'Brien, whose historic guns stand at the stairway of the administration building today Simon Drum, who brought them back to West Point Ulysses S. Grant, who fought at Chipotle The captain of engineers who became superintendent of West Point in 1852 Robert E. Lee, and a thousand others Now it was proven by the test of victory in battle and the place in American life Now Dennis Mayen was working on with other boys giving knowledge and skill to them that soon would find terrible use Boys with names like Sherman, Jackson McClellan, Stewart, early Mikey on April 12, 1861 Battery prepared to fire General Boregon It's a strange feeling, Lieutenant Gipps Fire! Yes, sir That first shot against Fort Sumter Ordered by Boregon, class of 1838 Fired by Gipps, class of 1860 Against the fort commanded by Robert Anderson, class of 1825 who had been an instructor for Boregon himself So it was to be for four long bloody years Fine soldiers, all of them fighting for that in which they believed carrying the tradition of the long gray line onto the battlefields wherever they fought The war did strange things to ratings and promotions On June 11, 1862 Peter Smith, Mikey was commissioned First Lieutenant of Engineers at West Point On January 1, 1865 he received the Star of a Brevet Brigadier General although his permanent rank was still that of First Lieutenant And so it was on April 10, 1865 The cannon in the Hudson Valley echoed and re-echoed from Crow's Nest From Storm King to Stony Point Gallant Robert E. Lee had met Ulysses Grant at Appomattox Courthouse And who shall say today that those flutes were fired by the Alma Mater more for Grant than for Lee Salutes pounding down the valley over the gray castle walls where both had served and studied Peter, Mikey returned to West Point to pick up where Dennis Mayan had left off to become the third great teacher in the line of teachers who are tradition at West Point He named his son for Mayan Dennis, Mikey And that young man gave West Point something, too And what is that object, Dennis? That's a new kind of ball, fella It's large for baseball. What do you do with it? You kick it. Get together some of the other fellas I'll show you how Football? Any game that goes with it? Well, sort of. You choose up 11 on the side and you gotta learn to kick it. Like this Dennis talked his father into obtaining permission for class teams. That was in 1888 In 1890, the Middies from Annapolis came to West Point Final score? Navy, 24 Army, 0 Next year, 17 cadets traveled to Annapolis with Dennis, Mikey, captain of the team Final score? Navy, 16 Army, 32 So football came to West Point to take its place in the triumphant tradition and gave its life in 1898 on a Helen Cuba when once again the call to war sounded in our land This is a place of names, this castle on the Hudson of names inscribed in the nation's history and on the hearts of plebs and upperclassmen alike A long grey line marches out upon the plain and marches out into the world with duty on a country on its banner Place there first by Sylvainus there and by man, Mikey, all the others All of them learned and loved the old grey walls the silent river flowing down below the forest covered mountains They learned America in this place and many of them fought for us just yesterday Their names are Legion from the rocks of Italy to Heartbreak Ridge and back to the nation's capital Mark Clark, Douglas MacArthur Hap Arnold, Jacob Devers Carl Spatz, Leslie McNair Jonathan Wainwright, Dwight Eisenhower Oma Bratnick, J. Lawton Cullum James Van Fleet, Matthew Ridgway A long grey line moves out across the plain Somewhere a spirit's smile must touch the face of him who dreamed at first and planned so well Sylvainus there, marked by statue on the post but marked so well by Farmer Cronk's still-growing tree Assemble surely of the hearts of all who understand the prayer that springs from the hearts of all those boys and grey who will find strength and skill to serve their nation well the prayer of the West Point Cadet O God our Father Thou searcher of men's hearts Help us to draw near to thee in sincerity and truth May our religion be filled with gladness and may our worship of thee be natural Strengthen and increase our admiration for honest dealing and clean thinking and suffer not our hatred of hypocrisy and pretense ever to diminish Encourage us in our endeavor to live above the common level of life Make us to choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong and never to be content with a half-truth when the whole can be won Endow us with courage that is born of loyalty to all that is noble and worthy that scorns to compromise with vice and injustice and knows no fear when truth and right are in jeopardy Guard us against flippancy and irreverence in the sacred things of life Grant us new ties of friendship and new opportunities of service Kindle our hearts in fellowship with those of a cheerful countenance and soften our hearts with sympathy for those who sorrow and suffer Help us to maintain the honor of the core untarnished and unsullied and to show forth in our lives the ideals of West Point in doing our duty to thee and to our country All of which we ask in the name of the great friend and master of men Amen Thank you I would also like to thank all the members of the cast for their excellent portrayal of highlights in the history of West Point a history of 150 years of service in our nation's long struggle through peace and war to hold to the ideal of government by the people Yes, this is the year of our sesquicentennial dedicated to the theme of furthering our national security We at West Point feel that worthy observance of this anniversary is especially appropriate at this time in our nation's history for never has our motto duty on our country been more meaningful and worthy of consideration Thank you You have just heard Major General Frederick A. Irving Superintendent of the United States Military Academy at West Point This has been another program for the United States Army and United States Air Force Recruiting Service This program featured Les Damon This is Kenneth Banghart speaking and inviting you to tune in this same station next week for another interesting story on Proudly We Hate

Welcome to another episode of the Ocean of Knowledge with me, your host Ahmad Ali. Now in tonight's episode, just like the other previous episodes, we have been rejoicing and celebrating the birth anniversary of our fifth Imam, seventh infallible Imam Muhammad bin Ali al-Baqr, peace and blessings be upon him. Now in the previous episodes for the two viewers who are just tuning in for the first time, we have been talking about in the first episode, we talked about a little bit of the life events that Imam al-Baqr went through and his worship, his supplications, you can visit our YouTube channel to view that episode. And in yesterday's episode, we talked about the title of al-Baqr and we talked about his relationship with Jabir ibn Abdullah al-Ansari and who he was. Now this was discussed with my dear guest, Sayyid Hussain al-Qazween, who is joining us once again in tonight's episode. Peace be upon you, Sayyidina. Peace be upon you. May Allah bless you. How are you? Praise be to Allah. I would like to congratulate you as well as congratulate our dear viewers on this very auspicious occasion. Thank you very much. Which marks the birth anniversary of this great individual Imam al-Baqr, peace and blessings be upon him. Now yesterday we talked about Jabir and we talked about how Rasulullah peace and blessings be upon him introduced Jabir decades before to Imam al-Baqr, peace and blessings be upon him, who he prophesied of who he was to live along. And he gave a brief explanation of what al-Baqr meant. This will lead into what we're going to talk about. He says al-Baqr will introduce, spread and open up knowledge just like the ground when it opens up for cultivation. Now, with this being said, a person who spreads, splits and shares the amount of knowledge that Imam al-Baqr, peace and blessings be upon him shared, what was his role? Did he spread the knowledge in a certain way or was it following the commands of Allah? There's various ways that he taught him. I seek refuge with Allah from Satan, the accursed, in the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Merciful, the Most Merciful, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, the Most Merciful. May Allah's peace, mercy and blessings be upon our master Muhammad and his family. When we examine the lives of the Ahl al-Bayt, we see that there were various stages. For example, beginning with Imam Ali al-Salam, Imam al-Hassan, Imam al-Hussain, this was the early stage of Shi'ism. The Ahl al-Bayt had not fully introduced Shi'ism, but were rather fighting foreign agents that were about to destroy Islam. Imam Ali al-Salam had to deal with various groups, like Muawiyah, at the battle of Safin. He had to deal with the Khawarij that were also trying to distort the image of Islam. He had to deal with the people of Al-Jamal, who included one of the wives of the Prophet and two of his companions. Islam was being distorted. Imam Ali had to try to save the image of Islam. Same goes for Imam al-Hassan, Al-Salam. Yes. He had to deal with a conniving, deceitful person like Muawiyah, who was making use of Islam for personal agendas and personal reasons. Imam al-Hassan had to deal with the son of Muawiyah, Yazid. Now this was a stage where Islam was under attack, not from outside, but from within. The image of Islam was being distorted. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi had put Islam on certain tracks. There were others that tried to put Islam on another track, to deviate it from that track. It was the job of the early Imams, and to some degree Imam Zain al-Abideen alaihi s-salam, to steer the direction back to the way that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi had planned. Of course, Allah had planned through Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi. Did the early Imams, like Imam Ali, Imam al-Hassan, Imam al-Hassan, Imam Zain al-Abideen, were they able to show the specific details about the ideology, about the theology, about the jurisprudence of Shiaism? No, not really. They didn't get a chance. Their time was a time of correction, correcting the mistakes of the Khilafa, correcting the mistakes of those that tried to steer Islam to a different direction. But did they have a platform to come and speak and teach and show the tenets of Islam, show the tenets of Shiaism, give the specific details? They didn't. They didn't get a chance. This gave way to a new beginning, to a new stage. And that stage began with Imam Al-Baqir, Al-Hassan, and Imam Sadiq, to a bigger degree. Imam Al-Baqir, during the time of Imam Al-Baqir, we see a shift from, let's say, from the defensive to the offensive, if we want to put it in plain terms, from defending the reputation of Islam to giving the details of Islam, giving details about the school of thought of Ahl al-Bait, what their school of thought is all about, their jurisprudence. Up till the time of Imam Zayn al-Abideen, people saw the Ahl al-Bait as pious men, those men who stood for justice, who stood against oppression, spiritual men, especially Imam Zayn al-Abideen, men known for their prayers, for their acts of worship, for their dua. But what is their school of thought all about? Is it just about fighting oppression and shedding blood, sacrificing for the sake of Islam? Is it only about spirituality and reciting dua? Is that it? Or is it Shiaism? Much deeper than that. It has an intellectual basis, it has its own jurisprudence, it has its own legal theory, it has its own theology, it has its own tafsir of the Holy Quran. These were all exponents that were not clear during the days of the early Imams. These factors were shown in the life of Imam al-Baqr and Imam Sadiq. Imam al-Baqr was able to sit inside al-Masjid al-Nabawi in Madinah and show the true meaning of Shiaism intellectually. What is Shiaism all about? It's about the justice of Allah, al-Ad, al-Nabuwa, al-Imamah. Imam al-Baqr was able to show what Imamah is, what is the meaning of Imamah. And Imam is an infallible Imam that never commits a sin, that has to have knowledge, that is divinely educated. He's not educated at schools. Nabuwa, what is Nabuwa? What is prophecy? Prophet has to be infallible, and so on and so forth. Al-Qiyamah, Yawm al-Ma'ad, Resurrection, Day of Judgment. These were all ideas introduced by Imam al-Baqr in theology. When we come to jurisprudence, Imam al-Baqr showed the jurisprudence of Ahl al-Bait. Ahl al-Bait, we're not just pious people that sacrifice their life that lived simple lives, but no, they had knowledge, they had jurisprudence. They understood the detailed laws of Islam, how to pray, how to worship, how to fast, how to perform Hajj, how to marry, how to divorce, the contracts, business, how to perform business. The Ahl al-Bait carried laws that was passed on to them from Imam to Imam from Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa ala Divinely educated knowledge, Divinely received knowledge from Allah. This was his chance to educate. This doesn't mean that the previous Imams did not educate, they educated, but they did not have the platform that Imam al-Baqr did. Yes, Imam al-Aliya sallam did educate, but not to all. He chose specific companions to educate, like Salman, like Abu Dharr, like Al-Muqdad, Mithima Taman, he had a small group. Why? Because other companions were not up to the bar, they were not capable. Imam al-Baqr saw no, that he could educate bigger numbers than his forefathers did, than Imam Ali, Imam Hassan, Imam Fasinda, as he was able to educate. When Imam al-Baqr and Imam al-Sadiq alaihi sallam came, he had a bigger platform. Yes. He had even a bigger platform. So his number one role, it was not a military opposition to the government, he was not trying to overthrow the government, he was not trying to start a political party, no, no. His main role was educational, an educational role to show the details of the school of thought. And that's actually the way you mentioned it, linking it to the previous Imams, because a lot of people do wonder, where were the Imams before him? I mean, jurisprudence, you know, the idea of jurisprudence began, or was initiated, and a lot of people, it's unfortunate that they don't give credit to Imam al-Baqr as much as they give credit to Imam al-Sadiq alaihi sallam. A lot of people, when they mentioned the Ja'far school of thought, what actually initiated by Imam al-Baqr alaihi sallam, who began that university, who began that, you know, because a lot of people that he taught, but as you mentioned, the floor was open to Imam al-Sadiq more than it was open to Imam al-Baqr alaihi sallam. And it was open to Imam al-Baqr more than the other Imams. More than the other Imams. It was, you know, political events play a major role. Right now in Iraq, right now in Iraq, we have a major hausa in Karbala alone. In Karbala, we have over a thousand hausa students. During the days of Saddam, there was no hausa. So what changed? The political circumstances, they changed. So too in Najaf. In Najaf, there was a hausa, but it was very minor during the days of Saddam. After the fall of Saddam, hausa came back as it was before. Now there's teachers, there's classes, there's lessons, political circumstances play a major role in the spread of knowledge. And that's what occurred during the days of Imam al-Baqr alaihi sallam. And especially when the Imams have to defend religion at the same time, you know, of spreading it. You know, we see him spreading Islam through his sacrifice. And same way, Imam al-Baqr alaihi sallam through his own ways. During the days of Imam al-Hassan, Imam al-Hassan, people were not ready for intellectual discussions. They were deviated. They were deviated. Islam in itself was under, you know, danger. Islam was in danger, let alone the details. They were not ready for the details. Islam was being, was put into danger. There was a Khalifa that would drink publicly. He would commit adultery publicly. He would gamble publicly. This was the face of Islam. Imam Hussain had to correct this. Imam Zain al-Abideen, when a step further, he introduced spirituality to Islam because people had surpassed that stage, of the dangerous stage. They needed spirituality because all they saw from Ben-e-Uma'ya was spending lavishly. They lived the lavish lives, their castles, their mansions, their alcohol, their money, their, their, their harems, their, their mistresses. They were taking Muslims away from spirituality. Imam Zain al-Abideen brought them back to spirituality. Up to the time of Imam Al-Baqir, when Imam Al-Baqir became the Imam, then he saw people were ready to receive jurisprudence. The details about Islamic law. Yes, and that's actually perfect. And as you mentioned, he did teach a lot of people. So he had that reputation, which was really, of course, coming from the Ahl-Baita, Alayhim As-Salam, but the reputation of, you know, establishing something that has not been established yet. And a lot of it does go to Imam Al-Baqir, but yet no one recognizes that. If I may comment about this. Imam Al-Baqir, might not have been known personally. People knew him, but not everyone knew him, right? But everyone knew that he came from a line of Imams. This is the son of Ali Ibn Al-Ghalib, and the son of Imam Al-Hasan, and the son of Imam Al-Hussain, and the son of Imam Zain al-Abideen. There was a family reputation, and this helped him. Imam Al-Baqir inherited this great family reputation that gave him credit, that gave him the support to be able to teach. While if it was someone else who was not known, nor his family was known, it would have been extremely difficult for him to come and establish himself in the Islamic ummah as whom? As a teacher, as an instructor. It would have been very difficult for him. But Imam Al-Baqir had the benefit of inheriting this family heritage, and inheriting this family name, this family reputation, he was able to work. Just like today, today we see some individuals here in Iraq or in other places, they inherited the family name. Yeah, we see that. They follow him. They follow them, or specific individuals. Why? Because they inherited that reputation from their fathers, from their forefathers. And so too was Imam Al-Baqir. He inherited this name of scholars, of pious men, self-sacrificing spiritual men, and this helped him spread the message of Ahl al-Bait in the Islamic nation. Now during the time of Imam Al-Baqir, we also see the rise of Sunni scholars, and the government at that time, saw the threat of Imam Al-Baqir, want to raise awareness to the people, but didn't treat him like they treated the previous Imams, his forefathers. So they went in a different way where they began to spend money on scholars to try and combat Ahl al-Bait, a.s. through Marjaiyat al-Sahaba and the Ishtihad, the Ra'i, if you will, like the Ishtihad that based on my own opinion, personal opinion, like we see later on with Imam Al-Sadaq, a.s. But did Imam Al-Baqir a.s. face any problems? I mean we do see him saying something that is not normal, it's like he's giving own legislations and own laws, instead of saying you know what, this is from Imam Zain al-Abideen, and you know the chain of command if you will. Right. So we don't see that with Imam Al-Baqir a.s. Why is that? Right. You see, up to the time of Imam Al-Baqir, there was a political problem, and that problem was that the Khilafa instead of coming to Imam Ali and the Ahl al-Bait, it went to some of the Sahaba. But up till then it was purely a political problem. It was purely a political problem, that the Sahaba were empowered. Instead of having the Ahl al-Bait being empowered, power shifted from the Ahl al-Bait to the Sahaba. But was this legitimized? No, it wasn't legitimized. There were Sahaba empowered, that's it. Then during the time of Imam Al-Baqir, we see that no, the Sahaba didn't just have political power, they started gaining religious power, that this is the school of Sahaba. Before there was no school of Sahaba. It was just the Sahaba were empowered, and you have to respect them, that's it. You have to respect their authority. Now the Sahaba were given religious authority. This is the school of Sahaba, and to confront who? The school of Ahl al-Bait. Because if it was only the school of Ahl al-Bait, and there was no one to compete with that school, they would attract the entire Muslim nation. And to attract them as religious followers, that would get them to power. You have everyone following you in matters of religion, that people will automatically say, if we're following them in matters of religion, shouldn't they be the ones who are empowered? So there had to be another school of thought to combat that. And that school of thought was called Madrasa to Sahaba. It was in that period. Who established that? It was not an individual. It became something common. So was it political? What I mean was, was it funded by the palace of the time? Yes, it was. It was blessed by the political authorities that now there's the school of the Sahaba. And this school of Sahaba, it produced the likes of Abu Hanifa, Maliki bin Anas, Ashafi'i, Ahmad ibn Hamar. It was these jurists that carried out, you know, they publicized for the school of the Sahaba. So this is one problem. Another problem that Imam Al-Baqir faced was that now that he's spreading knowledge, now that he's teaching, now that he's giving, he's showing the jurisprudential school of thought of Ahl al-Bait, how is he doing this? Abu Hanifa, of course, Abu Hanifa came after Imam Al-Baqir, who was one of the students of Imam Sadiq. But there were other jurists at the time of Imam Al-Baqir. People like Abu Hanifa, Maliki bin Anas, they would claim that they're mushnahids. They look at the teachings of the Quran, the Sunnah of Rasulullah, the Sunnah of the Sahaba, as they call it, and they give their own opinion, right? They didn't claim that this is God's law, that I'm a jurist and I'm giving you my opinion. Imam Al-Baqir, obviously, he's not a jurist. Imam Al-Baqir was not a mushnahid. It's not like he was looking at the Quran and the Sunnah of Rasulullah and he was deriving laws. What he said was a law itself. What the sayings of Imam Al-Baqir were God's commands. It's not that he was trying to understand God's commands. There's a difference between someone who reveals God's commands and who studies it, and someone who tries to study God's commands. What others did, they were studying God's commands and giving their opinion. Imam Al-Baqir did not do that. Imam Al-Baqir, we believe the Ahlul Bayt have the right to legislate. And what they legislate is God's command. How is he supposed to relate this to the Muslims? And this posed a question, because whenever Imam Al-Baqir spoke, right? Whenever Imam Al-Baqir spoke, he would say, Qala Rasulullah. Qala Rasulullah. Qala Rasulullah. Qala Rasulullah. Right away? Right away. And this, people were shocked. How do you know Rasulullah said this? Exactly. How do you know Rasulullah said this? Because others, when they would narrate, they would say, I heard from this person, and this person heard from that person, from this person, from this person, that Rasulullah said, they would take it back to the Sahaba. Meaning, whatever we've heard from Rasulullah, it was through whom? The Sahaba. The Sahaba. Imam Al-Baqir would surpass the Sahaba. He wouldn't mention the names of the Sahaba. He would go directly to Rasulullah. Now, this was found upon that you are bypassing the Sahaba. You are putting yourself not just, you know, in the position of the Sahaba, but even greater than the Sahaba. You're going directly to Rasulullah and saying that Rasulullah said this and this. There's a narration. Do we have to take a break? Can we go take a break and then come back? Insha'Allah we'll come back to that narration. Respected viewers, do stay tuned for after the break, for insha'Allah we'll continue our discussion revolving around how was the first school of thought established by Imam Al-Baqir, that's after the break, so stay tuned. Welcome to the second part of today's episode. Now before we begin, I would like to congratulate you on a special occasion which marks the birth anniversary of Imam Al-Baqir, peace and blessings be upon him. Now before the break, we did touch upon how the others tried to combat the school of Imam Al-Baqir, through establishing another school of thought. Can you a little bit recap about that, just to clarify something and then go into the narration you're about to talk about. Right. Imam Al-Baqir, peace and blessings be upon him, his role was not just about spirituality, to teach people spirituality or to teach people about justice, you know, the lessons and morals that were taught by previous Imams after him. No, he had an intellectual role. Yes. Now this intellectual role was to show the laws of Islam. There were two ways. One is to say that this is my understanding of the laws of Islam through the Qur'an and the Sunnah of Rasulullah and the Sunnah of the Sahaba like other jurists at the time did. Or to come and say that this is the law period, this is the law period, this is how Rasulullah stated it. That's it. No questions asked. Don't ask me, you know, how did you derive this? Or how do you know that Rasulullah stated this? And this, you know, this caused the, this put a question mark on Imam Al-Baqir and he had to be very careful. Yeah. He had to be careful because Muslims were not used to someone who legislates laws right away. They were used to jurists that would tell him that we presumed this is how Rasulullah wanted things to be because we narrate from, from, from, from Rasulullah. Right? So this put a question mark on how Imam Al-Baqir was going to deliver the laws. How is he going to teach? Is he going to teach as if the laws are from him? He's a representative of Allah? Or is he a jurist? You see? Yeah. One narration says that Imam came to visit Imam Sadiq, alaihi salam, from, you know, not one of the Shia, not a follower of the halbid, from the other schools of thought. He came to visit Imam Sadiq to offer his condolences after the death of Imam Al-Baqir. And then in the narration, he's disrespectful to Imam Al-Baqir. He says, Wow. It's, it's not a polite term. You use it for those that, you know, cause deviation or cause deviation. You don't say it for, for good people. Yeah. Anyhow, he says, I came to visit Ja'far Ibn Muhammad, al-Sadiq, and to give him, to give him my condolences on the death of his father. And he said, I told him, your father died. The one who would say, Al-Rusur Allah, and would not ask, how did you receive this narration? Al-Rusur Allah. What's your chain? There's no, there's no in between. There's no in between. The only one who would say, Al-Rusur Allah, and would not ask about the chain, has died. I offer you my condolences. Imam Sadiq, accepted the condolences, and he thanked him. And then he said, Al-Allah. Wow. He said, you basically, saying that, if you think my father would say, Al-Rusur Allah, I say, Al-Allah. And I will not tell you what is mine. What's in between? What's in between? You see, people were not used to this. Yeah. Because they saw Imam Al-Baqir, Imam Sadiq, as regular human being, just like Abu Hanifa, just like Malik. Yeah. Those who need to say that, this is my, who need to derive, this is my, you know, my chain, Al-Rusur Allah. This shows that people were not used to the Imams having legislative authority. Does it not contradict the way that Imam Al-Rusur Allah, Al-Rusur Allah, said, No, no, there's no contradiction. Sometimes, Ahlul Bayt, if they want to emphasize on something, they will mention that the entire chain. No, but disputant needs a lot of emphasis. Of course. It requires a lot of emphasis. But there's no reason to say he's lying. But sometimes, when do you mention a chain? When people doubt you, they might think you're lying. You say, No, I heard this from so-and-so, from so-and-so, from so-and-so. He saw it with his own eyes, right? Imam Al-Rusur Allah, he said this where, in Nishabur, it was a Sunni city. They were all not followers of Ahlul Bayt. But what I mean is, for example, even in the time of Imam Al-Baqir, Shia's were minorities. I mean, they were either persecuted or dead. Right. I mean, so he began that school of thought. Right. Sometimes, the Ahlul Bayt would mention the entire chain of narratives. Sometimes, they don't. Sometimes, they don't even say Qana. They immediately say Halal, Haram. Do this, do that. Sometimes, they would say Qala Rasulullah. Especially, if the one asking the question was not one of their followers. So, to tell him this is Halal or that is Haram, he might say, Well, who are you to tell me that this is Halal or that is Haram? So, they would put in one Qala Rasulullah, to make the other person feel more comfortable in accepting this law. Now, you mentioned something that Imam Al-Baqir was not like Maliki bin Anas or Abu Hanifa. No, they were jurists. They were jurists. Imam Al-Baqir was not a jurist. So, for example, Abu Hanifa was a student of Imam Al-Baqir. If it was a student of Imam Al-Sadaq. He wasn't a student of Imam Al-Baqir? No. Because, I don't know, some reason I read in a book that Abu Hanifa studied under Imam Al-Baqir and Imam Al-Sadaq. Perhaps he might have met him. Perhaps he might have met him. He might have spoken to him, but he was mainly the student of Imam Al-Sadaq. And for that reason, he stated because of the two years that he studied under Imam Al-Sadaq. Now, what I mean by this is that since these individuals tried to combat Ahl al-Bayt, was there any conflict in between? Or was it just a religious war, if you will, like a religious literature combat instead of a war happening? There was no war. However, the Ahl al-Bayt, especially Imam Al-Baqir, and we see this in the other Imams after them. You see, up till Imam Zain al-Abideen, the Ahl al-Bayt had not flexed their intellectual muscles. People knew that Ahl al-Bayt carried knowledge, but they hadn't seen it yet. Because Imam Ali had spent the five years that he was in power in battles. He wasn't able to sit and give sermons and to give intellectual lectures. Same goes for Imam Al-Hassan and Imam Zain al-Abideen. When it came to Imam Al-Baqir, he was able to show the intellectual side of Ahl al-Bayt. The others did. I don't want anyone to misunderstand me. The others did as well, but not like Imam Al-Baqir. Through their actions. Through their actions. Imam Al-Baqir disseminated through his knowledge. Yes. There was a process. There was a movement to try to underestimate them. Yes. For example, the Khilafah purposely would bring top scholars to debate Imam Al-Baqir. This happened with Imam Al-Baqir. This happened with Imam Al-Sadiq. For example, Imam Al-Baqir met with the Pope, so to speak, or the highest Christian authority. He met with the highest Jewish authority, Al-Jathuliyy, and so on and so on in the narration. He would meet with various schools of thought. Utada from Basra. They would come and pose questions to Imam Al-Baqir, the most difficult questions. Why? So that they would slip. Perhaps out of the 10 or 20 questions posed to him, he might slip in one. Never. He would never slip. During the days of Imam Al-Sadiq, in fact, during the days of Imam Sadiq, I believe Al-Mansour Al-Dawaniqi would put Abu Hanifa to debate Imam Sadiq. His student, Imam Sadiq's student, Abu Hanifa, would try to debate Imam Sadiq to get him to slip. Never. Never happened. They had realized, the Khilafah had realized that the Imams, specifically Imam Al-Baqir, Imam Sadiq, carried a lot of intellectual weight. And that's attractive. You know to anyone, you see regular people, if you see someone carrying knowledge, you're immediately attracted to that person. And you would want to give authority to that person. Even political authority. A person who carries knowledge, you would want that person to be in charge of you. Yes. And in charge of your country, in charge of your nation. Definitely. So the Khilafah wanted to underestimate, underscore, Imam Al-Baqir, Imam Sadiq, to get attention away from them intellectually, so that people would be deceived. Never happened. Never happened. They didn't succeed. They didn't succeed. Now, currently, and you know, even before when the Prophet preached Islam, there was a concept that played a role within spreading Islam. And right now, if someone wants to get his, you know, his mission accomplished, or he has a goal in his mind, there's the aspect of Taqiyyah. Now, how did that play a role within the life of Imam Al-Baqir, alaihi salam? Imam Al-Baqir, Imam Sadiq had to be very careful in teaching and spreading knowledge. Let me give you an example. It's like a religious speaker during the days of Saddam. Yeah, you cannot make sure. You have to be very careful. You can't talk about politics. Whatever you talk about, they're going to think you're talking about Saddam. For example, we have to fight injustice. The authorities will think that, what, you're calling people to fight Saddam. So being an orator, a religious orator during the days of Saddam or during, you know, in any dictatorship is very, very difficult. Imam Al-Baqir and Imam Sadiq were spreading knowledge and lecturing during the days of Bani Umayyah and Bani Al-Abbas, very dangerous rulers. So they had to be very careful not to insult the rulers or rather not to instigate, not to insult. Insulting is not the right word, not the right word, but not to instigate them, not to stir them against the Shia. The Al-Baqir themselves, they were not afraid. They were not afraid for their lives. Whether they lived or died didn't make a difference for them. The Al-Baqir were not afraid of death, but they did care for the Shia. They feared for the Shia. They feared for the Shia. They didn't want to say anything that would put the Shia in danger. So to a certain degree, they had to practice Taqia. They didn't want to instigate the other side. They didn't want to put themselves or their followers in danger. That's why, for example, if someone were to say, do you call for war? You'd have to say no. We don't call for war. They had to be very careful what they say, not to stir the other side. Sometimes they didn't have to say anything about the Khulafa, but they, for example, they couldn't voice their opinions in the presence of non-followers. Why? Because this would get other scholars to feel threatened. And when other scholars feel threatened, they would make the Khulafa feel what? Threatened by the enemy. So it was very tough times for the Imams. Very tough times. One, they have to spread knowledge and carry out their message. And two, not to offend, not to get themselves and their Shia and children. So they had to practice Taqia at most Taqia. So to the most extent? To the most extent. Now, to a degree that Imam al-Sadiq, alaihi salam, was forced to enter upon al-Mansur al-Dawaniqi, and he would have to say, As-salamu alaika ya Amir al-Mu'mineen. To that degree. Wow. Ya had to call him Amir al-Mu'mineen. Why? Imam al-Sadiq was not afraid for himself. He was afraid not just for himself, but for his followers as well. They had to practice Taqia. Now, is this concept present in our days? Are we, you know, to a certain extent forced to practice this, or are we free? This is a controversy. Today, are we living at a time of Taqia? It does need a huge lecture by itself. It needs a lecture by itself. But simply, what is the purpose of Taqia? The purpose of Taqia was for protection, to protect the lives of the Shi'a, and to protect the lives of Ahl al-Bait. Yes. Now, does this apply today? Absolutely. In some places, you have to practice Taqia. Imagine in some parts of the world now, I won't mention countries because it's obvious. If you don't practice Taqia, your life will be in danger. If you want to say everything that you know, everything that you were taught, you'll be in danger. You will be in danger, your family, your job, your wealth, all of this. Even people in other countries will be in danger because of that word that you say. Sometimes you are not in danger. You're living in a place where you will not be in danger, but your words will put others in danger. Absolutely. This is a time of Taqia. And I am of the opinion that we are still living in the times of Taqia. InshaAllah. This by itself, as you mentioned, needs a lecture by itself to dissect into what matters me, Taqia, and what matters, we don't. But the last thing, we have the problem of Gholu. It happens a lot. And we see many people. Especially during the life of Imam Al-Baqir. Imam Al-Baqir, I don't know if they understood the actual meaning of this, or they just took it to another degree? Very briefly, because I know that we're running out of time. One of the problems that existed during the days of Imam Al-Baqir, and this was an inside problem. It wasn't with the Khulafa, it wasn't with another nation. It was within the Shia movement, there was a movement of the Khulafa. Basically, there were a group that claimed love for Ahlul Bayt is enough. You don't need to pray. You don't need to fast. It still exists. You don't need to do any of these deeds. As long as you have love for Ahlul Bayt, you have the Shafa'ah of Ahlul Bayt. As long as you receive the intercession of Ahlul Bayt, and you believe in them and their willaya, you have the willaya of Ahlul Bayt, that is enough. This was very dangerous. This was a movement. It sped like wildfire. Why? Because it's easy. Telling people that all you need is love for Ahlul Bayt, and you don't need to pray or fast. All you need to do is rely on the love of Ahlul Bayt. People would buy into this because it's easy. You don't need to pray anymore. You don't need to fast anymore. This was a problem faced by Imam Al-Baqir. Imam Al-Baqir had to be very strong, and we see some narrations. He would curse the gulat and their leaders. May Allah curse so and so, this person, that person, for spreading ideas like this. And the gulat, they weren't just spreading these words. They weren't just spreading this message. No, they would fabricate narrations. They would come to the companions of Imam Al-Baqir. They would take their books of narrations. They would put in these books, fabricated narrations, and then pass them back. This book, for example, belonged to Zorara. This book would spread. People all of a sudden, they see that in this book, Zorara says that you don't need to pray. You could rely on the love of Ahlul Bayt. For example, this was very dangerous. They would fabricate narrations. It's as if the companions of Ahlul Bayt had said this. Wow. So Imam Al-Baqir had to face this problem and try to bring an end. Just like Ameem Al-Talib, when he met the people who made him. They were gulat at the days of Imam Al-Baqir, and they were gulat during the days of Imam Al-Sadiq. Imam Al-Baqir was not able to eradicate them. They continued to the days of Imam Al-Sadiq. The proof of this is that we see from the narrations of Imam Al-Sadiq, Imam Al-Sadiq also tried to combat the gulat. And there were several, their leaders. Imam Al-Baqir tried, Imam Al-Sadiq also tried to combat them. This was a major problem that put Shi'ism in danger. Definitely. This danger, this inside danger, was not less than the outside danger. It was danger from foreign agents because they gave a reason for the Khulafa to say, see, these are the Shi'a. They're not Muslim. You don't practice the Qur'an. The Qur'an says pray fast. The Shi'a say that all you need is love of Imam Al-Sadiq. All you need is love of Imam Al-Baqir. So they added salt to the injury. The Ahlul Bayt were already attacked. The gulat were giving a reason for the Khulafa to attack the Ahlul Bayt even more. So this was a major obstacle for a major challenge for Imam Al-Baqir to deal with. And he did. He did. But it was Imam Al-Sadiq who came and continued their journey of Imam Al-Baqir. Now it's safe to say as a conclusion that there was a personal agenda that motivated them. Absolutely. There was a personal agenda to underscore Ahlul Bayt. I would like to thank you very much for joining us tonight. My pleasure. May Allah SWT age you as well as the Ahlul Bayt. May Allah SWT continue spreading the knowledge of Ahlul Bayt. Thank you very much. Thank you very much for joining us in this series. My pleasure. Alla Alayhi Salam Kubnau. Respect the viewers. Thank you very much for tuning in. It's important to pick up the important lessons which can be derived from the life of Imam Al-Baqir, especially in the way how to increase our spirituality at the same time, increase our ability to spread the knowledge of Ahlul Bayt in the same way Imam Al-Baqir and the Ahlul Bayt did. Thank you very much. Wa-Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu.

Aar The second in a series of debates focused on the challenges facing Scotland as a result of the recent EU referendum. At the outset of the debate, it is important to restate a fundamental point about the Scottish vote and about Scottish democracy. In that referendum, people in every single local authority area of Scotland voted to remain. More than 60 per cent of voters in Scotland wanted to stay in the EU to protect the jobs, the investment and the trade that depend on our membership of the EU. The people of Scotland, the Scottish Government and a clear majority in this Parliament support continued membership of the EU. In that respect, we are protecting Scotland's interests. The onus is on those who want to drag Scotland to the EU exit door to justify why the wishes of the people of Scotland should be ignored in that way. The Scottish Government's overriding priority is protecting Scotland's relationship with and its place in the European Union and all its benefits. Business and the economy is at the heart of that. Last week's debate was essentially about getting the right deal for Scotland—the very best deal for Scotland—in circumstances not of our choosing and reaffirming that as a shared aim of every member in this chamber and everyone in our country. Today, I think that we must take a similarly strategic view, but we must also recognise the vital importance of acting now to address more immediate economic challenges. Just to be clear, it is our view that the fundamentals of our economy remain strong. Despite uncertain global conditions and falling off prices, which we all know about, our economy has continued to grow over the last year. Scotland is and remains an attractive and stable place to do business. However, there is no doubt that the referendum outcom presents a significant challenge to our economy both now and in the future. It has already created deep and widespread uncertainty with jobs and investment likely to come under threat. In the lead-up to the EU referendum, the Scottish economy continued to demonstrate resilience in the face of on-going external headwinds associated with weak global growth and the low oil price impacting on the oil and gas sector and its supply chain. In 2015, Scotland's economy grew by 2.1 per cent, which is in line with the historical trend of GDP growth rates for Scotland despite those challenges. Although economic growth was flat in the first quarter of 2016, employment expanded by 51,000 during the latest quarter, the largest quarterly rise on record, and unemployment at 4.7 per cent is currently at its lowest rate since June to August 2008. In fact, I think that from looking at the records, one of the lowest unemployment rates that we have had in the past 25 years. The underlying economic data remains strong. There is much to be positive about that data, but the reality is that post-referendum uncertainty represents an on-going challenge to businesses across Scotland and the UK as a whole. I am grateful to the cabinet secretary for giving away the Purchasing Manager's Index, which was published just last week, that demonstrated that business confidence had returned in every part of the United Kingdom to pre-Brexit vote levels. With one exception, that was Scotland. Every region of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, business confidence was back up and positive. Only in Scotland business confidence remained below pre-Brexit levels. Can the cabinet secretary explain why he thinks that that is? On the other hand, unemployment is lower in Scotland than it is in the rest of the UK. Employment is higher, one of the highest levels that we have ever had of employment in Scotland. I would say this in relation to the businesses in Scotland that I do not think that they benefit from the Tory approach, which is to call them fat and lazy. I do not know how they think that that helps businesses in Scotland or the rest of the UK. Neither does Brexit help them, and it does not help them either. In fact, it is not the economy that spoke to person. The Tory economy spoke to person who is never allowed to talk about those issues. It has to be Murdo Fraser instead, constantly referring to the fact that Brexit does not provide challenges and the only song in Murdo Fraser's songbook is the Scottish independence referendum, by ignoring the challenges of Brexit. It is even more incredible to have a pressurallist issue yesterday in which Murdo Fraser says, it is time to the Scottish Government to solve the problems of Brexit, when it is its own party that is what breaks it upon us. We will go with what we have done in terms of trying to help the Scottish economy rather than what the Tories have not done. The exit or proposed exit from the EU has also prompted a substantial downward revision for output in 2017. The analysis that we produced is that Scottish GDP is projected to be between £1.7 billion and £11.2 billion per year lower than it would have been if Brexit does not occur. Tax revenue is projected to be between £1.7 billion and £3.7 billion lower. We know that those forecasts are contingent on political and other events and the reaction to those political events by the various actors in the economy. What is clear is that the immediate uncertainty caused by the vote is impacting economic sentiment and business confidence. There is never any mention from Murdo Fraser about the problems in Brexit, but, if you look at some other people who have a view on that, such as the American President, or we look at the Koreans, or we look at the note from the Japanese Government, or we even look at his Prime Minister, Fraser May, who has acknowledged difficulties ahead, at least they can see the problems that Brexit will bring, even if Murdo Fraser cannot. I am using evidence of that in a range of post-referendum business services from the Bank of Scotland, the PMI report that Murdo Fraser mentioned. The Scottish Chambers of Commerce and the Fraser of Allander Institute all pointed out to the problems being incurred by the prospect of Brexit. Last week, Highlands and Islands Enterprise published an analysis of the views of 1,000 businesses with more than half, confirming that the EU referendum result, something that is not acknowledged by the Conservative Party, had made them less confident. He asked for an explanation as to why that might be, less confident about the economic outlook for Scotland, while the report was done by Highlands and Islands Enterprise, and that is who they asked. We are clear that the policy that we have must support the economy given this business environment, and that there should be two Governments. We are always told—in fact, David Mundell refers to this regularly—that there are two Governments working tirelessly apparently to support Scotland's economy. It is hard to see exactly what the work has been done by the UK Government since it has yet to announce anything in terms of a fiscal stimulus, infrastructure or capital investment. We are always told that, except, of course, when the unemployment figures suit Murdo Fraser, then it is only one Government that is in Scotland. Even though his own party, Gavin Brown, previously said that the UK Government retains most of the economic levers, it is all down to the Scottish Government and it is bad. Of course, the figures are good, not unmentioned from the Tory party about very good employment figures. The Bank of England has taken some action to stimulate the economy, including a cut in the bank rate, the introduction of a term funding scheme and the expansion of the quantitative easing programme. As far as it goes, I would welcome those measures. The Conservative Government in Westminster is, in stark contrast to this Government, ignoring the challenges of Brexit and alienating, sometimes purposely, calling them fat and lazy, our business leaders. The Prime Minister, as I say, has acknowledged that departure from the EU, yes I will. Mr Lockhart, you talked about a strong Scottish economy. Is he aware that every year that the SNP Government has been in power, the Scottish economy has either underperformed the UK in terms of economic growth or has been in recession? How is that being stronger for Scotland? If you look at a longer term, you go back 25 years or so, too often that has been the case in the past. What you will also see during the time of this Government is that frequently the employment figures in Scotland are far better to those that are in the rest of the UK. Of course, it is the case that we have to deal with long-term issues, including a lack of growth, as we know, in Scotland and in the UK. However, the issues are compounded by the fact. In my view, the economic levers that the Tory party itself says mainly reside in Westminster are not being sufficiently used to the benefit of the Scottish economy. Ignoring the challenges of Brexit and alienating business leaders, as I say, the Prime Minister has acknowledged that departure from the EU will bring difficult times to the country. I am hopeful that we hear from the Conservative benches when they get the chance to speak what their view is. Should Scotland stay part of the single market? It would be interesting to hear if that is addressed by either the economy spokesperson if he is allowed to speak or Murdo Fraser, who more usually does so. President Obama has said that the United States would guard against any adverse impact on the Brexit vote, but warned that a trade deal with the UK was not Washington's top priority. Early this month, the Japanese Government issued an unprecedented warning about the impact on jobs and investment of giving up single market privileges. It said that Japanese businesses, with their European headquarters in the UK, may decide to transfer their head of its function to continental Europe if EU laws cease to be applicable in the UK after its withdrawal. We are going to meet myself and Mike Russell to meet with Japanese businesses and with the Japanese Consul General to try and give him the true impression of how things are in Scotland to try and mitigate that threat. As I have said, calling business across the UK is fat and lazy. It is not the way we should be responding to that situation. On economic and financial issues, we need the UK Government to provide answers on key questions. We need to know, for example, are workers' rights going to be protected? We need to know if a new holiday visa tax will be introduced for people travelling to the EU. For the economy, despite repeated demands, as I have just said, there have been no answers on the most important question of all, will the UK remain inside the single market? To make it an easier question, do you believe—who ever speaks for the Conservative Party in this debate—that the UK should remain inside the single market? It is a fairly simple question that would answer a lot of fears among businesses, so let's hear the answer from the Conservatives. Before the referendum, I will do. I am grateful for the cabinet secretary for giving way. Does he agree—as I think the Scottish Government has been this clear—that to be part of a single market implies absolutely the retention of free movement? If capital is free to move, but people are not, that is not a single market. Patrick Harvie is absolutely right. If you think about some of the major infrastructure projects that we have, our ability to deliver those infrastructure projects is fundamentally limited if we do not have that free movement of peoples across the EU in coming to Scotland. Before the referendum, the leader of the Scottish Conservatives was adamant that answers were required, and she said to those who were campaigning to leave, that she would not tell us how much her economy will be hit by, she would not tell us how many jobs might go, and she would not tell us what they are going to replace a single market with. Now that the Conservatives seem to be united behind the leave position, it defies belief that they still will not answer those questions. In fact, they will not even ask those questions here in Scotland now that were asked so forcefully before by Ruth Davidson. So what are the answers? We know how important the answers are to business, but support for continued single market membership was a position that was endorsed by the main business organisations in Scotland when they issued a joint statement in July. So we need a clear answer. Does the UK Government want to stay in that single market or not? Answering that question is the most important action the UK Government could take, and it is not just me saying that in a debate in the Scottish Parliament, businesses that are asking that question and they deserve an answer. In the debate that follows, I would welcome, in addition to that answer, constructive ideas about how we can further support economic growth and from MSPs across the chamber. In that spirit, I would urge the chancellor to explore two key measures that the Treasury could take to protect and create jobs despite that continued uncertainty. First of all, increase capital spending. An increase in the UK infrastructure spend of £5 billion could provide an additional £400 million spend in Scotland. That would support around 3,000 jobs. Increased support for exporters. I think that there is general agreement about the need to drive up our exports. The depreciation of stirring represents challenges to businesses in the UK, admittedly, but it also presents opportunities for companies to either move into new export markets or start exporting for the first time. The UK should be investing more to support that. Those measures could encourage investment, recruitment and exports in growth. I am putting them forward as a clear plan for how the UK Government can help at this critical juncture for our economy. I hope that the chancellor will act as soon as the autumn statement, but ideally even in shorter order than that. For our part, we have taken decisive and positive action to support and stimulated the economy. Building on the established economic strategy, £100 million of capital investment provides immediate support to the Scottish economy. We have set up a new dedicated service to answer questions from businesses that are affected by referendum uncertainty. A new post referendum business network will work closely with the main business bodies, the Scottish trade union's congress and the Scotland office, and forms part of a wider upgrade to our engagement with businesses and sectors. Understanding their knowledge and experience is vital if we are to support them fully in the months ahead. We are providing support to businesses with high growth potential through a £500 million Scottish growth scheme to provide investment guarantees and some loans of up to £5 million for eligible businesses over the next three years. That will focus on new and early-stage businesses. I am sorry, I am very short of time there, but I have only got a short time left to finish. It will focus on new and early-stage businesses with high growth potential and clear export growth plans. We have approved European structural front projects to invest their economy with a total value of £290 million of grant. With partner funding, that means an additional £650 million being invested in Scotland's people, communities and businesses. We are increasing the supply of affordable housing in Scotland. We are implementing the recommendations of the independent review of planning to ensure that we have a strong high-performing planning system that supports housing and infrastructure delivery. We are improving connectivity through strategic investments in our transport infrastructure and in our digital connectivity. We are supporting investment in Scotland's cities and regions through our city and regional partnership deals. We are continuing to offer a competitive business rates regime. A small business bonus scheme offers zero or substantially reduced rates, and we are committed to expanding that scheme from next year to remove the rates burden entirely from 100,000 premises. We have commissioned an external review of business rates led by Ken Barclay to make recommendations on how the rate system could be further improved. We are working to make Scotland a more internationally focused economy by piloting innovation and investment hubs at key global locations, including London, Brussels and Dublin, to support trade, investment and innovation. We will also widen and deepen our business engagement to shape our response to the EU referendum and wider trade and investment activity. We are establishing new trade envoys on which I hope to have discussions with other parties in the Parliament and a ministerial trade board. I am listening to and engaging with businesses through existing engagement structures sector-specific international trade summits and a dedicated investor forum for critical inward investment. I will finish where I began. A more competitive and inclusive economy will ensure that Scotland with them withstand the economic shocks, sustain that higher employment, create better quality jobs and fairer work. Our economic priority is protecting Scotland's relationship with and place in the European Union. I move that the Parliament welcomes the overwhelming vote of the people of Scotland to remain in the EU. Notes that leaving the EU is widely expected to have a negative impact on economic growth and public sector revenues, as well as access to labour, inward investment and opportunities to export, as well as threatening essential economic and social protections and recognises the continued resilience of Scottish businesses and the urgent need to support and stimulate the economy in the wake of the EU referendum. We note the initial steps taken by the Scottish Government and calls on the UK Government to bring forward a substantial stimulus package instead of the complete paralysis that we see just now in the UK Government to boost business confidence, keep our economy moving, end austerity and endorse the vital importance of growing an inclusive, productive and sustainable economy with more jobs and fair work. I move the motion in my name. I am pleased that the cabinet secretary was able to join us this afternoon, although I am a little bit disappointed that his speech seems to be more about attacking the Conservative opposition than setting out any detailed proposals as to what new ideas the Scottish Government has to take us forward. Let me start, if I can, by putting this debate in some context. Seven days ago, the long-established sterling retailer Macaree Brothers announced that it was closing its doors after 138 years of trading in the city. As mentioned in the local press, this is a severe blow to the retail economy in the centre of sterling. There is no doubt where the responsibility lies. The company itself is quite clear that it was the burden, the crippling burden of business rates that led to the decision being taken and, in particular, it blamed the large business supplement, introduced by the SNP Government, which meant that a business like theirs—not actually a large business but one operating from middle-sized retail premises—was being punished. This is a large business supplement introduced in Scotland at double the rate payable in England and Wales and, therefore, putting Scottish businesses at a competitive disadvantage. The reason that I mentioned this at the outset is to reinforce the point that, right here and right now, there are issues more serious than the consequences of Brexit affecting the Scottish economy. As our amendment today makes clear, even before the Brexit vote in June, there were issues with Scotland's economic underperformance, which required to be addressed and still need attention today. As the cabinet secretary said, we had good news and unemployment published last week when, against the trend in recent years, we have seen Scottish unemployment dip below the UK level. However, across a whole range of indicators, Scottish economic performance is lagging behind the UK as a whole. Whether that is GTB growth, retail sales or business confidence, we are not doing as well as we should be. That debunks the myth that is being put about in some quarters that any problems with the Scottish economy are purely the responsibility of the Brexit vote. Yes, Mr Crawford, I will. I wonder whether Murdo Fraser agree with David Mundell when he said in May that leaving the EU would be an absolute disaster for Scotland. Now he says in September that Brexit has amazing possibilities for Scotland. Which one of those would he choose from? Like my good friend Mr Mundell, I did not support the UK leaving the EU, but that is a democratic choice of the British people in a referendum that people in Scotland participated in. What we have to get on is to make the best of the situation. Instead of sitting negatively on the sidelines and carping, we have to make the best of the situation. Let me say a bit more about where we are with the Scottish economy. Maybe I can suggest to Mr Crawford and his colleagues some positive things that we can all be doing to try to help the situation. The situation with the Scottish economy is set out very starkly in last week's publication by the Fraser of Allander Institute on Scotland's budget 2016. In the section on outlook for the Scottish economy, the institute comments that there is an on-going divergence between Scottish and UK economic growth with production and manufacturing in Scotland in particular dragging down overall growth. In terms of output per head, the UK is growing more quickly, with growth in Scotland of just 0.4 per cent compared to the UK's 1.4 per cent over the past year. Immediately prior to the EU referendum, the pace of growth in Scotland weakened further with both production and construction sectors contracting. This is a situation that should be a worrying one for the Scottish Government and, as the institute makes clear, all this data predates the Brexit vote. Perhaps the most worrying statistic that was published recently was the Purchasing Managers Index business activity report, which came out last week, which I referred to earlier when I intervened on the cabinet secretary. When the figures came out for July, it was not perhaps surprising that in immediate aftermath of the Brexit vote, we saw a slump in business confidence in every single part of the United Kingdom as a reaction to the uncertainty caused by the outcome of that vote. However, the figures for August tell us a different story. In every part of the UK, business confidence is returning, with one exception. It is up in Northern Ireland to a two-month high, up in Wales to a five-month high, up in the south-east of England to a five-month high, in the south-west of England to a 13-month high, in the north-west to a seven-month high. The only part of the United Kingdom where business confidence has not returned post-Brexit is here in Scotland. Why should that be? What is it about Scotland uniquely that means that business confidence has returned? I asked the cabinet secretary earlier to explain this. He was unable to do so. What we also see from those figures is that, even in those parts of the UK that voted to remain in the EU, such as London or Northern Ireland, they have seen their business confidence returning in August. Only Scotland is the exception. It is only in Scotland where we have the issue. I suggest that, because the cabinet secretary cannot give us an explanation, there is one very obvious conclusion to draw from those figures. The unique Scottish problem—the one that is holding back Scottish recovery is the one issue that they do not want to talk about on the front bench—is their obsession with an independence referendum. We have seen in recent weeks a whole range of business figures saying that the last thing that Scotland needs at this point is another referendum. The last thing that we need is another period of economic uncertainty. However, two years on from that last vote, one that we were told would be once in a generation vote—all we hear from SNP figures—is about how and when another referendum should take place. Astonishingly, we even had the First Minister at the weekend on the front page of the Sunday Herald telling us that the case for independence transcends the economic argument. Never mind the economy, just close your eyes and vote for independence. It might be that there is another explanation, but I need to tell us what that other explanation is, and we have not heard that yet. Oh, yes, please. I also did not get very far down the list of actions that we were going to propose to help the economy. In fact, we did not get anywhere at all, but could you at least try and answer the one question? Do you believe that Scotland and the UK should stay with access to the single market or not? I know that the cabinet secretary did not even attempt to answer my question to him about an explanation for the lack of business confidence, but being a courteous and generous man, let me address his question directly. I think that what is important to Scottish business and UK business is having access to the single market. That is what is important. The concept of membership on the single market is an esoteric thing, as my learned colleague Adam Tomkins has pointed out on many occasions, what is important is access to the single market. That is what we should be striving for. The Scottish Government's motion today is very heavy on calls for what the UK Government should do. It is almost as if the Scottish Government had no tools at its disposal that they were completely helpless. There is nothing that they could do to try and improve our economic performance. In reality, there is a huge amount that they can and should be doing, and they should start, Presiding Officer, with business rates. I quoted earlier the example of Macaree Brothers and Sterling, just one business that has been suffering the business rates burden. There are many other examples from across the country, but I am sure other members in the chamber could quote, and business rates are nothing to do with the UK Government. They are entirely the responsibility of the Scottish Government. If there is a need to stimulate the economy in the wake of the EU referendum and deal with the uncertainty that the cabinet secretary was talking about, then that is an area where they can and should be taking action. Therefore, they need to scrap the large business supplement, a misnamed policy, if ever there were one, for many modest-sized retail premises that are affected. They need to take our advice and freeze business rates for the next five years in the same way that council tax was frozen for the previous nine. That would deliver a real benefit to Scottish businesses. Perhaps as importantly, send a signal to the world that Scotland is an attractive place to come and work and set up a business and invest. And continue messages from the Scottish Government about higher taxes in Scotland will simply put people off from investing and expanding their businesses here. Add to that the uncertainty around the second possible independence referendum and its little wonder. We are seeing the Scottish economy struggle, and yet, at a stroke, the Scottish Government has the power to resolve those two issues immediately. Now we know that there are concerns in the business community about the uncertainties caused by the Brexit vote, and we completely accept that. But some of the doom and gloom that we have heard a few weeks ago has already been dispelled. Both Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse, who were back in June predicting a UK recession, have now changed their minds and said that there will not be a recession. And what we should be aware of is that there are opportunities that will be afforded by the UK leaving the EU. In the short term, many sectors of the economy have benefited from the Brexit vote. The fall and the value of the pound has been of considerable benefit to the domestic tourism industry. Now we have yet to see official figures, but anecdotally my impression is, talking to people in the sector, that it has been a very busy summer. A month ago I was in the West Highlands in Katie Forbes constituency visiting the same location that I was in last year at the same time, and I must say that it was noticeably busier this year, particularly with European visitors. On a rough count, one in three of the vehicles on the roads belonged to visitors from elsewhere in Europe, France, the Netherlands or Germany. With a pound buying fewer euros abroad, there seems to have been a rise in staycations with more UK residents taking holidays here. Exporters, too, have benefited from the fall and the pound and for industries like food and drink, which are so important to Scotland, that is of great significance. So the question for the Scottish Government is this, what steps are they taking to assist businesses to take advantage of these opportunities? We know, for example, that the fishing industry sees a great future outside the EU. What is the Scottish Government doing to develop a distinctive fishing policy for Scotland to help that industry to grow in its new environment? What does the Scottish... No, thank you, I'm running out of time. You've got a little time if you want to... Well, yes, of course I'll give way. Can you tell us what the Government's thing about the fishing industry is? Will the member acknowledge that the fish catching industry is of one view, but the fish processing industry that depends crucially on the free movement of labour is absolutely behind not just having access to the single market, but being a member of the single market? Mr Fraser. I'm afraid that the member did not make any attempt to address my question, which is that, given that we're moving into this new environment, what is his party and his Government doing to try and seize the opportunities from Brexit to help me to develop a new fishing policy for Scotland that might address the concerns that he has raised? He has nothing to say on that point, and neither does his Government. What is the Scottish Government going to do to develop a new farming policy for Scotland? Given that support payments for agriculture will no longer be paid from Europe, they have to be paid domestically. There is a huge opportunity awaiting us to design a new agricultural support system tailored to the needs of Scottish agriculture, rather than one being handed down from Brussels. Is the Scottish Government doing anything at all to try and progress this? And what has been done to promote exports at this time? The economy committee in the last Parliament, the honour of convening, said at that time that Scottish businesses needed more help with export advice. Ruth Davidson called in the summer for Scottish development international to be expanded to help to gain new markets abroad. Today, the opportunity for exporting is greater than it has been for many years, but what is being done to seize this moment? And what is being done to look at how we best support large-scale businesses? Given that EU state aid rules may no longer apply in the future, what is being done to look at the opportunities for developing a new consumption tax given that EU rules around VAT may no longer apply? Presiding Officer, there are a whole range of policy opportunities for us, given our departure from the EU. And yet, rather than take those forward, rather than be positive about the future, all the SNP Government wants to do is sit on the sidelines and complain and carp. Presiding Officer, Scottish businesses expect the Government here in Edinburgh to do all it can to support the Scottish economy. We on this side of the chamber are positive and optimistic about Scotland's future. Within the UK and outside the EU. I hope that Scottish ministers can find it in themselves to be less dismal, less miserable, less downbeat, less pessimistic, to be more positive, to be more cheerful, to be very hopeful, to show some real leadership and seize the opportunities for the future. That is the point that is made in my amendment today, which I have pleasure in moving. Thank you very much. And I'll call Richard Leonard to speak to a move amendment 15C1.3. Mr Leonard, eight minutes are there abouts please. A little time in hand. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. In the wake of the Brexit vote, the Fraser Valander Institute in a survey of 320 firms across Scotland found that 60 per cent believed that the outcome of the EU referendum will have a negative effect on their business. Even more 67 per cent believed that the uncertainty it created was an additional problem. As we all know, the people who will suffer most from any business downturn are those working people who are already on the most precarious contracts, those who already are the lowest paid, those who are already in the deepest in-work poverty. The people living from week to week, they are the victims of any economic collapse as a result of Brexit, and they are the people that this Parliament must speak up for. The cabinet secretary in this motion is calling on the UK treasury to come up with a counter-cyclical fiscal stimulus package, and we support that. But we call on the cabinet secretary to join with us in calling on his own government to do more to stimulate investment. The £100 million stimulus package is welcome, but we know that it is not enough. In fact, when it was announced, even Murdo Fraser was on BBC Radio Scotland arguing that it simply wasn't enough. I don't know whether his summer reading was John Maynard Cain's general theory of employment interest and money, but it seems to have had the effect. I also know his support for state aid of industry as well this afternoon. I want to draw the cabinet secretary's attention to a report, which the National Institute for Economic and Social Research brought out recently, in which they conclude—I know that this is something close to him—that infrastructure spending strengthens the supply side of the economy with the potential to create a permanent increase in GDP around the region of 0.5 per cent, a permanent increase of 0.5 per cent. We are calling today for a new infrastructure investment programme starting with a house building programme and an existing homes investment programme. As I mentioned in the housing debate last week, 16,000 jobs have been lost from the construction industry in Scotland over the past five years. Half of those 8,000 jobs have been lost from the construction industry in the last year. As I said to my colleague the Minister for Housing last week, if his targets have been exceeded, then there was something wrong with his targets in the first place if all those people in that industry are out of work. The times that we find ourselves in demand, the kind of stimulus package that the Scottish Government has called for with infrastructure spend and house building at its core but, in our view, of a greater order. However, it demands not simply a reflation of the old economy, not simply taking the tears out of capitalism, as somebody once described it, but building up a new economy. Deputy Presiding Officer, there is an aspect of our economy that is often overlooked and under played, but which we believe is fundamental to this debate on Brexit this afternoon. That is the question of the ownership and control of the Scottish economy. Figures that we are publishing today reveal that over a third, 34.6 per cent, to be precise, of the Scottish economy is now overseas owned. That is considerably higher than any other part of the UK. So, while the SNP has been fixating on political sovereignty, it has presided in office but may be not in power over an historic loss in economic sovereignty. When the SNP came to power in 2007, less than a quarter of Scotland's economic base was owned externally. Now it is over a third. The speed and scale of this loss of economic sovereignty is huge. I put it down to the fact that there has been no industrial strategy and no serious challenge to this. Yes, I will. I am listening with interest the point that Mr Leonard is developing. Is he arguing that Scottish companies and investors should not be able to invest overseas in companies in other countries to support economic efforts here? Before he answers that, he may consider that Scottish companies have higher levels of investment internationally to integrate and join markets to the benefit of the wider economy. Mr Leonard? Yes, I am concerned about the export of capital as well as the high levels of inward investment and the failure to develop sufficiently the indigenous industrial base. I also say to the member that I thought that this might come up and I checked. The First Minister said to the SNP conference on the eve of the Scottish Parliament elections of 2007. You may remember the speech well. We will stand up for our businesses and our industries. We will encourage them to grow and we will defend them when they are under threat. That is what Governments do, the length and breadth of Europe, and that is what an SNP Government will do. You have singily failed to do it. Those figures prove that you have singily failed to do it. I could mention just maybe three examples of any loss at Grangemouth, Prestwick airport, and Tata Steel. It is the case that this Government has protected indigenous investment in indigenous businesses. Is he trying to say that there is no link between political sovereignty and economic sovereignty? Mr Leonard? No, there is a very strong coincidence of link between political and economic sovereignty. However, if I can return to my point, which is to look at the position of Scotland compared to other parts of the UK, the Scottish level of external ownership of the economy stands at 34.6 per cent. The next nearest part of the UK to that is the west midlands of England with 30 per cent. London has 27 per cent, which is about the average for the UK. Of course, that has huge implications for the way in which the economy functions and where decisions are made. However, it also means—this is the point that is relevant to this afternoon's debate—that it also means that we are more vulnerable to international shocks, like the effects of withdrawal from the European Union and the single market than any other part of the UK. For those overseas-owned businesses that invest here to gain access to the European Union's single market, there is a risk. The Scottish Government's own report, which was brought out in August, said that 79 per cent of investors listed access to the European Union's single market as an important element of the UK's attractiveness for investment. For those businesses headquartered elsewhere in the European Union, there is a risk of divestment. That same Scottish Government report estimated that there are nearly 1,000 European Union-owned companies operating in Scotland, employing 115,000 working people. For those Scottish-located businesses that exist as part of a European Union-based chain of production, there is a danger from tariff barriers and to intra-company supply chains, and not least in those parts of the economy that are to all intents and purposes screwdriver plants, so rail jobs are at risk. The more our economy looks like a branch plant and wholly unsubsidiary economy, the more vulnerable it becomes. I hope that one of the lessons that we take from this, the state of our economy, is the need to invest in through an industrial strategy at the indigenous base of the economy. Instead of control and ownership lying in a minority of hands, often abroad, we should be looking at ways in which we build up our internal economic infrastructure. If I can turn in closing, to a comment that was made last week's Economy, Jobs and Fair Work Committee by Professor Colin Mason, where he made some telling points. I would recommend all members to look at Professor Mason's evidence to the committee. He said, quote, that having independent, locally-owned, solid, middle-sized companies in Scotland is important, not least because their head offices are in Scotland. So let's use the occasion of Brexit to take a fresh approach to our economy. Let's charge the Scottish Investment Bank with building up homegrown businesses. Let's work with trade unions and businesses in locking in external investment in building local linkages. Let's get an industrial policy, which builds from the bottom up rather than one that is over-reliant on unstable foreign direct investment, and let's look at how we can reclaim the economy so that it is run and its long-term strategic decisions are made in the interests of working people. Deputy Presiding Officer, I move the amendment in my name. Thank you, Mr Leonard. We're now going to move to the open debate. Can I ask all members to make sure that they've pressed the request to speak buttons now, particularly if they've made an intervention because the button goes off then? I call Joan McAlpine, who is followed by Liam Kerr, up to six minutes. Are there abouts, please? Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. I was rather alarmed to read recently in the Financial Times that our fate appears to be in the hands of Chancellor Philip Hammond, who has emerged as the sole voice of common sense in the cabinet holding the thin blue line to protect access to the single market against the three Brexiteers, Boris Johnson, David Davis and Liam Fox, who appear to believe that sailing off in the good ships Britannia will sometimes make it all right on the night and that Britain can sail into the sunset without sinking. The challenges of Brexit are far, far more serious than that, and the initial evidence taken by the Parliament's European and External Relations Committee is clear when a number of us visited Brussels, we met with the British Chamber of Commerce, who were striking in their warnings. They in particular made it clear to us the dangers to foreign direct investment in the UK from being outside of the single market. They pointed out that membership of the single market was key to attracting foreign direct investment from outside the EU, from China, Japan and the United States. In fact, the warning from the chamber in Brussels has since been fleshed out, not least by the document prepared by the Japanese Government. The chamber made the point to us that foreign direct investment for investors rather often looked to the UK as the default option for investment in the EU. It made the point that the UK punched above its weight in the EU because it was part of an angle phone area. Of course, we have lost that advantage in the British Chamber of Commerce, said that they already knew of deals that had fallen through as a result of the uncertainty caused by Brexit. Obviously, foreign direct investment is one of Scotland's great success stories. The Ernst and Young, the EUY attractiveness survey in May 2016, showed that in 2015 Scotland attracted more foreign direct investment projects than anywhere in the UK, apart from London. A report by the Fraser of Allander Institute has noted that Scotland's comparative success in attracting international investment could be slowed down as a result of Brexit. Scotland's main business organisations, the Scottish Chamber of Commerce, the Federation of Small Businesses, the Federation of British Industry, the Institute of Directors, the Scottish Financial Enterprise, the Scottish Council Development Industry issued a joint statement on 8 July confirming that Scotland businesses need continued access to the single market to prosper. That was also the clear view of those who gave evidence to the European Committee over the summer. I know that a number of Conservatives have been trying to distinguish between access to the single market and membership of the single market. That is a misleading distinction. As I said last week in the debate, the single market is not a pick-and-mix affair. It is built on four freedoms—the freedom of movement, freedom of capital, freedom of services and freedom of investment. It is all or nothing. You cannot pick or choose, you lose. For example, Switzerland, although it is a member of EFTA, is outside the EEA. That means that the deals that have to be negotiated with the EU do not include services. As we know, services account for a growing aspect of Scottish and UK exports. They are the pillar in which the economies of our great cities, such as Glasgow and Edinburgh, are based. Even membership of EFTA and the EEA still puts those countries outside the EU customs union, and being outside that customs union means that businesses have to prove country of origin. Therefore, they are subject to a great deal more red tape than they are within the single market. Indeed, the Fraser of Allander Institute, giving evidence to the committee, suggested that the paperwork for proving country of origin alone would add about 1 to 2 per cent to business costs. Agricultural products from EFTA countries and those outside the EU will be subject to immediate tariffs. On the subject of farming, will the money that the UK saves in payments to the EU come back to Scotland to construct a new system of support for agriculture? Will the payments that come back compensate for that? We just do not know that Scotland can construct a new system of agriculture because we agriculture support, because we do not know how much of the cap payments are going to come to Scottish farmers at the moment. At the moment, cap payments to Scottish farmers amount to 18 per cent way above our population plus share of the block grant that comes to Scotland through Barnett. We have not been told if we will maintain those 18 per cent farm payments. Similarly, with fishing, the evidence received by the committee suggested that control of fishing grounds, because they are part of UK maritime boundaries, stays with the UK Government. Indeed, there has already been speculation that continued access to our fishing grounds could be a bargaining chip in the UK's negotiating position in terms of securing a deal with the EU. That is extremely worrying. I just wanted to conclude by reflecting on a little bit more on trade, as we certainly some of the comments that have been made at UK level suggest that we are heading to a hard Brexit, which will mean a return to WTO rules in the short to medium terms. There are a number of commentators who believe that that will take place, even if the Government's intention is to negotiate a trade deal with the EU, because the article 50 process means that you cannot negotiate those trade deals until the article 50 process is finished, so you will revert to WTO rules even in the medium term. It has already been said by a number of commentators that the UK does not have the skills in that area. What concerns me is that, even when they get up to speed, if they get up to speed in that area, where is Scotland going to be in negotiating those trade deals both at EU level and with countries out with the EU? We have not been told that we are part of the conversation, and we need to hear exactly what Scotland's input is going to be from now on, both in terms of building a UK negotiating position and in the longer term in negotiating the best possible deals for our trade. I call Liam Kerr to be followed by Kate Forbes. This debate is called responding to the EU referendum. I was saddened to see the motion from the Scottish Government, which continues to show two clear things. There are the negative reactionary pessimistic and rather unedifying response to the UK's vote to leave the EU, and just how little this Government understands about business's response to the EU referendum, because the thing about business is that it is very good at seeing opportunities and reframing the narrative to the positive. Whenever a business faces an unexpected challenge, they do not do what this Scottish Government appears to do, which is talk of problems, economic shocks, dangers and warnings. They roll up their sleeves and look for opportunities. Only last week, in this very building, I was talking to a representative of a Scottish aquaculture business, who has seen international exports rise substantially following the depreciation of the pound. Direct evidence of what the CBI reported in early August when it found that Britain's SMEs are expected to boost exports by around 10 per cent as a result of the UK's vote. SMEs are now reporting the first improvement in competitiveness in EU and non-EU markets since 2013. Ms Martin. Would Mr Kerr agree with me that basing a business model on the devaluation of the pound is possibly an only temporary thing and is not something to aspire to? I would not agree with that. I am not talking about basing a business model on depreciation of the pound. I am reporting what the CBI was reporting about SMEs. I am talking about optimism, which is something that has been manifestly absent from the Scottish Government's position thus far. Indeed, the Scottish Whiskey Association were claiming that there are exciting opportunities for the food and drink sector as they find new markets and as the UK becomes more competitive. We heard from Murdo Fraser that the domestic tourist industry has had a great summer, and then there is the Scottish fishing industry, who believe that exit from the EU presents a unique opportunity for the UK to re-establish itself as a major fishing nation. Re-establish, the common fisheries policy and the European Commission's interference has decimated the British fishing industry. In the space of just over three decades, the EU has taken a profitable, well-managed resource, providing direct employment to 350,000 people in fishing and processing, and providing 5.4 million jobs in the wider economy and nearly destroyed it. Please leave the central belt, come up and visit McDuff or Banff or White Hills or Port Soy and witness the devastation caused by mandated fleet reductions, cod recovery plans and quota cuts. Yes, sir. Mr Steves, I thought you'd rise. When he mentions Banff, I have to, Presiding Officer. I wonder if the member could answer two questions. How many of the last 30 years has there been a reduction in the value of landings at Peterhead? I'll give him the answer, three. Secondly, what has happened to the size of the Norwegian fleet that is outside the CFP over the period that he refers to, the Scottish fleet? Mr Kerr. Yes, I thank Mr Stevenson for his question. I can answer authoritively on both of those points. However, given that I've only got six minutes, I would encourage Stewart Stevenson to write in and I promise I will give you a full answer that addresses all those points. Peterhead is a very particular answer, which I can answer, and I promise you that I will, Mr Stevenson. When the Scottish fishing industry claimed last week that exit from the EU presents a unique set of opportunities for Scotland to reinvigorate its coastal and island communities and deliver a thriving, profitable and sustainable seafood industry, when the industry says that it offers opportunities and the freedom to explore new markets for seafood in rapidly expanding markets outside the EU, we hear negativity and fear from the SNP. But are we surprised? Are the fishermen of the Bucking Coast of Shetland of Malig surprised? No. For this is the party who promised Scotland's withdrawal from the common fisheries policy until they got into government and then dropped it, who ignored scientific advice and the pleas of the fishermen on the client when enthusiastically implementing marine protected areas, who said nothing when the European Commission signed into law a regulation that allowed Faroes fishermen to catch more mackerel off Shetland than the island's own pelagic fleet. In December 2015, a vital vote took place in the European Fisheries Committee that, if passed, would have introduced cod into the discard ban a full one year earlier than planned, which would have been devastating for the fishing industry. You are quite right, Stuart Stevenson. I wasn't here for that last point. Mr Stevenson, would you like to intervene and see if it will be accepted rather than baracking? Mr Stevenson is right. I wasn't here during that last point. I'm only new in. The SNP were not there in the European Fisheries Committee in December 2015. So it comes as no surprise that the Scottish Government has had nothing positive to say to the fishing industry and the huge opportunities open to it and other industries by the UK's vote to leave the EU. For years, they have hidden behind European regulations that they oppose in Buckingham but back in Brussels. It is time for the SNP to start acting in the interests of all Scotland's industries, which means working with and as part of the UK. For all of those reasons, the motion that is drafted simply cannot be supported and I commend the amendment to the chamber. Thank you. I now call Kate Forbes, followed by Jenny Marra. Ms Forbes, please. Thank you, Presiding Officer. Could I just start off the back of that last speech as I constituency MSP with a lot of fishing in my area? I'd just like to quote Will McAllum, head of oceans at Greenpeace UK, who reminded us all that it's the Westminster Government, not Brussels, who's in charge of allocating the EU-agreed fishing quota and who has chosen for years to give most of it to a handful of large corporations, rather than to the smaller fishermen who have most to lose, and that's certainly been the impact in Malig. To the subject at hand, between 2007 and 2013, the Highlands and Islands have benefited from tens of millions of pounds because we are or were or maybe will be a member of the EU. That funding has directly been utilised to teach our children, build our roads, conserve our environment and boost our businesses. I can be more specific. In my constituency of Skye, Lchabr and Badenach, we've received £100 million between 2007 and 2013. I can assure you that that figure of £100 million is not plucked from the sky because I painstakingly went through every European-funded project or initiative in my constituency between those years and counted every penny, and I didn't include the common agricultural payments. For us, the impact of the EU has been local. It's been community-based language assistance, strategic employment projects, it's gone towards Skills Development Scotland to allow them to provide local training opportunities in the Highlands and Islands, it's gone towards projects in the Cairngorms, it's specifically provided £2.25 million for vital Highland roads like the A855 between Portree and Staffan. It's been grants of £20 million each to the University of the Highlands and Islands and the Highlands and Islands Enterprise, because Brussels impact can be as close as our front door. In the interests of fairness and touching on a point that Murdo raised, for a region that exports globally renowned food and drink, I welcomed the projected increase in export markets. For an incredibly hospitable region that hosts thousands of tourists each year, I accept that we've seen a huge increase in visitors from the EU to the Highlands this year. To Murdo, who saw the benefits of my constituency, I would say that most would have booked their holiday prior to the referendum outcome. Surely it demonstrates to all of us that a free market for our exports and free movement for our visitors is critical to the future economy of the Highlands and Islands. In Scotland, we're proud of our brand and our popularity. We're proud of our food and drink exports, our university education. In 2014, 42 per cent, or £11.6 billion, of Scotland's international exports, were to EU countries, with six out of 10 of Scotland's top 10 export destinations being members of the single market. We're proud too that people from the rest of the world choose to make their home in our cities and in our villages. The increase in EU membership in 2004 has helped to improve stagnating Scottish immigration figures with increases of around 0.5 per cent, year on year, in the 11 years since. That has ensured that many Scottish businesses, particularly in the Highlands and Islands, who struggle to recruit staff, have been able to fill vacancies within their organisations and have been able to maintain full compliments of staff and provide a service or goods in the Highlands and Islands. As somebody who passionately believes in Scotland's ability to succeed, I have every faith in businesses across Scotland to flourish, whether we're inside or outside the European Union, because the EU is not the linchpin for success for the Scottish economy. However, its great strength is as an enabler. It has enabled capital investment in rural areas such as my constituency. It has enabled us to trade without barriers with our European cousins. It has enabled our young people to expand their horizons. It has enabled our businesses to recruit and retain staff from across the EU in areas of Scotland that struggle to find staff. If the Conservative Party wants to talk about the challenges to our economy, let me remind them that the Institute for Fiscal Studies estimates a negative shock of £24 to £39 billion to public finances by 2019-2020 as a result of Brexit. The Fraser of Allander Institute reported that early signs of an improving outlook have been dented by a Brexit vote, and that the UK Government has abandoned targets to achieve a surplus by 2019-2020 because of the Brexit vote. I could almost deal with it if it were a mess of our own making, but the tragedy in all of this is that it wasn't this Government's decision or this nation's decision to leave. Thank you very much. I call Jenny Marra to be followed by Tom Arthur, Ms Marra, please. Thank you, Presiding Officer. A journalist from the Toronto Globe and Mail was in Edinburgh last week. He gave a talk on the economies of Montreal and Toronto. He cited evidence that the economy of Montreal had faltered as a result of the two referendums in Quebec and has never properly recovered. During that time, Toronto took off and left Montreal in its economic week. The journalist talked in detail about how the governing separatist party in Quebec spent money regularly, injecting the economy with announcements of pots of cash here and there, trying but ultimately failing to compensate for the poor economic and investment environment that its overall political objective was creating. I was reminded acutely of the First Minister's cash injection of 100 million this summer. Much heralded, repeated again here in her legislative statement, but as we all know and the SNP should know, no compensation at all for the economic conditions that the independence referendum two years ago created. I'll take an intervention in a minute. The EU referendum, which added illt's insult to injury and the on-going uncertainty and threat of a third referendum here in Scotland, I'll take the intervention now. Cabinet Secretary. I thank Jenny Marra for taking intervention. I just point out to her that she says that investment flew away from Montreal, from Quebec, during the course of their referendums. Is she aware that in 2014-15 and 2015-16, Ernst and Young demonstrate that we had record inward investment in Scotland during those two years? Or is she unaware of that fact? Sure. There is some record of inward investment. There is no doubt that the reports overall over the last few years have created economic uncertainty, and the Cabinet Secretary has said himself today about the uncertainty that those referendums create. The Tories know acutely well how Brexit has rock confidence, as Murdo Fraser said so himself. I imagine very much regret that they did not have a Prime Minister with more backbone than to bow to pressure from his Eurosceptics, whose votes he would to become Tory leader 10 years ago. He put party before country. I think that historians will judge him harshly for it, and rightly so. The global capital that we refer to in the Labour amendment today will survive. It will fly away, as my colleague Richard Leonard outlined. It will find a home in a more welcoming, calm and stable environment, but the real failure here is for the people who cannot and who do not want to fly away. Working people whose families and homes are here in Scotland but do not have the means or the want to upsticks and find a more prosperous economic climate. Opposite to the First Minister, their economic fears transcend constitutional arguments. I see this fear every day in the families in my region. Fear for their sons and daughters, their economic chances and what paths they might go down if a job, an income or a house are not available to them. Uncertainty, caused by two and maybe three referendums, does not help this at all. That is why I am appalled at the woeful lack of imagination and focus on our economy from the Scottish Government. I think that that is clear from the motion and the opening speech today. The First Minister, in her legislative programme, briefly announced a strategy for decommissioning work from the oil and gas industry. That was very welcome, very tardy but very welcome, at last, nevertheless. I understand that there is a tight timescale for this and it is due to report in late October, November. Any clarification from that on the Government benches would be useful today, but it is right to report soon, because the peak of the decommissioning market is predicted by industry to be in 2019. That is only two years from now. Is Scotland ready to harness those jobs here? I think that the truth is that the Government would like to say that we are, but they have not yet put in nearly enough work to assess our capacity and capabilities. That is why we saw the Merce platform sail off to Norway this summer. That is why Brent is being decommissioned in the north-east of England, sailing past unemployed engineers all the way down the east coast of Scotland past the ports of Montrose, Dundee and Meethel, to be taken apart where regional development authorities have had the foresight to secure this work. Apart from the moral imperative of sustainable jobs, there is another question of equity in this work. Decommissioning is and will be funded to the tune of 60 per cent by the Scottish and UK taxpayer through tax relief. Taxpayers in my city and region have been paying for this work for years and will be for years to come. Is it right, therefore, that jobs directly funded by the British taxpayer go to Turkey and Norway? Would other countries be so utterly stupid as to let this happen? Given our Scottish Government's discomfort with the Scottish people paying tax to London, should they not be outraged that more is not being done by both Governments to secure this work in our communities here in Scotland? I have not heard the First Minister utter one word on this or, indeed, her finance secretary. I wonder why. Indeed, when I asked the finance secretary in this chamber last week if he had spoken about tax relief for decommissioning with the Treasury, he said that it was not his job. Keith Brown, apparently, is liaising with the Treasury. I have lodged a parliamentary question asking Keith Brown about this today, but if he would like to answer on this now, I would be obliged. It seems that he will, cabinet secretary. I am happy to do so. The discussions that Derek Mackay referred to and the discussions that I had with the chief secretary to the Treasury to put the main ask of the industry, which was for long guarantees for infrastructure work, which was well received and I am assured that the UK Government is going to take action on this much quicker than the three years that he talked about in perhaps three or four months. It was successful to that extent. I very much welcome that intervention from the minister and I will be writing to him for a bit more detail on that if that is okay. Yesterday, I held a decommissioning summit meeting in Dundee to bring key stakeholders together to specifically discuss opportunities for our city. It was a very useful meeting with fourth ports liaising with key players like Shell and Acom to pin down details of opportunities for our port. I would very much like to see the Government's economic agency doing detailed, localised work like this all over Scotland to really spur on economic possibilities. Because, while the constitutional discussions rumble on, families in Dundee still worry about jobs for the future, while our future jobs sail to shores beyond the EU. Brexit, or no Brexit, the Scottish Government should be getting on with the day job. I would like to take this opportunity to inform the chamber that the First Minister has appointed me as parliamentary liaison officer to the cabinet secretary for justice. I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome Michael Russell to his new position. His job is one that requires skill, both political and intellectual, matched with tenacity and determination. I am sure that the chamber would agree with me about all those attributes that Mr Russell is preeminent. That is the first opportunity that I have had to address the chamber since the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. I am proud that an overwhelming majority of people in Scotland, along with a majority in Northern Ireland, voted to reaffirm our bonds of solidarity and shared prosperity with the world's most important political and economic union of independent nation states. It is a matter of regret that we were not, however, able to persuade a majority of our friends and neighbours in England and Wales of the merit of our position. Consequently, we find ourselves in a situation not of our own making and quite unlike any other in modern British political history. As one who sincerely and honestly believes that Scotland's long-term interests would be best assured by assuming the responsibilities of statehood, I naturally feel a great sense of unfairness at both I and my constituents in Renfisher South, now faced being stripped of our European citizenship as a consequence of a decision taken out with Scotland. However, for those who share in this disappointment, our frustration must be tempered by the acceptance that this was a decision taken collectively by the United Kingdom, which Scotland, for now at least, remains a part of. Therefore, the immediate task that we face in this place is to obtain the best outcome for Scotland and to maximise Scotland's participation in the UK negotiations as member states. It is, I would proffer Axiomatic, that the best outcome for Scotland is that the UK as a whole retains continued membership of what is commonly understood as a single market, i.e., the internal market of the European Union as defined by the four fundamental freedoms. Retaining full membership of the single market is of vital importance in realising what I hope is our shared ambition for the increased internationalisation of Scotland's economy. The key strategic objective is surely best achieved through continuing membership of the single market. Outside of the single market, we lose not only direct access to a market of over 500 million people, we also lose the clout and trade expertise of an institution that can parlay as an equal with both the United States and China. While the other countries of these islands will continue to be important trading partners, we must continue to expand our horizons and not allow our ambitions to be bounded or confined to trade for dominated by the nations with whom we shared this Atlantic archipelago. Although the UK is now set to leave the European Union, that does not preclude the possibility of continuing membership of the single market. That could potentially be achieved through UK membership of the European Economic Area as membership of EFTA in conjunction with bilateral agreements or perhaps through a new bespoke set of treaties. Although all such options merit serious consideration, what there seems to be a little prospect of is the UK enjoying continuing membership of the single market without acceptance of the four fundamental freedoms, including freedom of movement. It is therefore with concern that when we are now faced with this reality, it appears that the UK Government is edging towards surrendering the UK's membership of the single market so as to substantially reduce the intake of migrants upon whom our future prosperity and the sustainability of our public services depend. The prospect of withdrawal from the single market coupled with denying access to those who would seek to come and contribute to this country would, at best, be a gross abdication of economic responsibility and at worst potentially the greatest act of self-inflicted harm committed by a British Government since the Suez de Bakle. Therefore, we must do all we can to persuade the UK Government not to pursue this reckless course. It is incumbent upon all members in this place that we give effect to the will of the Scottish people, as expressed on 23 June. That means pushing the UK Government to demonstrate that it too respects the clearly expressed wish of the Scottish people. If it is unwilling to secure and ensure continued single market membership for the UK as a whole, then the UK Government must strain every sinew to secure continued membership for Scotland. Perhaps we are some form of reverse Greenland or one country, two systems model. That would require an unprecedented boldness of vision but would demonstrate a willingness to make the UK a genuine partnership of equals. It should be evident to all that this is a debate of the greatest importance both to the future of Scotland and indeed to the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, however, it appears from over the summer that we have seen a UK Government that is asleep at the wheel. With Tory members in this place and in Westminster muttering sombrant drivel about empire, the world being our oyster, and even calling for the recommissioning of the Royal Yot Britannia. Although the UK Government may not know what Brexit means, we in this Parliament must take our opportunity to define what it will mean for Scotland. In my view, that means retaining full and uninterrupted access and crucial membership of the single market. Should the UK Government deliver, it will have demonstrated a willingness to treat Scotland as an equal partner. Should they fail when it may not just be one union that they lose? As Murdo Fraser stated, the front page of the Sunday Herald may point out why confidence in Scottish businesses is not recovering like elsewhere in the UK. For the front page of the paper quoted the First Minister, the case for self-government ultimately transcends the issues of Brexit, of oil, national wealth and balance sheets, and of passing political fads and trends. When the UK decided to leave the European Union, the Scottish National Party Government took that as an opportunity to revisit a constitutional question that, as we, as a nation, had already settled, it is clear for all to see the uncertainty that comes with constantly questioning Scotland's place in the United Kingdom and not accepting the result of referenda. We must remember that domestic trade with the rest of the UK is worth four times more than that of with the EU. What sort of message is Nicola Sturgeon giving to our country? Let us not forget about our current economic situation. Scotland stands at a crossroads. Our economy is not matching that of the UK growth. Falling global oil prices haven't helped, the construction industry is struggling and Scotland has a £15 billion deficit. If Scotland had become independent, every woman and child and man would be £1,600 worth off. That simply cannot be ignored. Professor Michael Keating, the director of the economic and social research council centre on constitutional change, has warned that free trade between Scotland and the rest of the UK would end if one nation was in the EU's single market and the other was not. Independence would ultimately lead to an economic barrier, a barrier to free movement, a barrier to goods and probably services as well. I haven't got very far, but yes I will, Gillian Martin. Ms Martin. Would that mean that if we are not in the EU, we can't trade with anyone in the EU? I'm getting a mixed message here. I'm talking about what Michael Keating suggested and this particularly refers to the domestic market. As Liam Kerr said, we will need to show the same resilience as we move forward into the unknown. Maintaining current relationships or developing new ones within Europe and the wider world will require skill and tenacity. The process will also require intensive government intervention and support. In this regard, the Scottish and the UK government must work closely together to help to deliver what is best for Scotland and best for the United Kingdom as a whole. It is now time for the Scottish Government to look ahead and do right for Scottish business. We've heard from Murdo Fraser the damage that business rates are causing and, indeed, the damage of repeating the same constitutional questions. We could however be focusing on how to help Scottish business. If we take the tourism sector, for example, here we have a sector that has reported a boost since Brexit, as already mentioned, it is a sector that we should focus on to encourage continued growth. Tourism is the buzzword on everybody's lips and is of vital importance to the Scottish economy. Spending by tourists in Scotland generates around £12 billion of economic activity in the wider Scottish supply chain and contributes around £6 billion to the Scottish GDP. That represents about 5 per cent of the total Scottish GDP. A strong visitor economy helps to position Scotland on the world stage. The economic impact of visitor spend spreads out from the traditional component parts of the tourism industry into other sectors such as arts and crafts, food and drink, cultural activities, sports events and retail. There are around 14,000 tourism-related enterprises in Scotland. Job creation has been steady. Employment in the tourism-related industry sector accounts for 7.7 of employment in Scotland. However, we are experiencing a skills shortage, and this, according to the Federation of Small Businesses, is one of the biggest threats to the tourism business. EU migrants currently make up a large proportion of the tourism sector, and future workforce planning will be key to ensuring the success of this industry. Perhaps by bringing more of our own school leavers into this sector and helping employment growth, we can make some progress. We must look forward to the future, identify future problems or just listen to Scottish businesses. What do they tell us business rates are causing insurmountable pain to many? There is a skills gap due to college places being cut. There is an unwillingness to invest in Scottish businesses because the Scottish Government persists on revisiting the same constitutional questions. Those are all problems that the Scottish Government can fix. Stop increasing rates, stop cutting college places and stop revisiting these questions. To conclude, the Scottish Government must work closely with the UK Government to identify what kind of European legislation might work for businesses. Let's drop what doesn't work and let's pick up what does. We need to be clear about how legislation will impact, not just on tourism, but on all industries. That will require many more meetings between David Davis and Mike Russell as we move towards an exit that suits our nation as a whole. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I may be wrong, but I think that I heard nation singular at the end of that speech. I must be mistaken. I will check the official report tomorrow. I welcome the debate and also welcome the central argument in the Government's motion that a change of UK economic policy is urgently needed to support the economy and our people instead of yet deeper austerity. The decision that was made on 23 June will have profound consequences. Whatever happens over the months and years ahead, the willfully dishonest leave campaign and the utter lack of preparedness within the UK Government can only exacerbate those consequences. The nature of the consequences is not yet clear, as the Fraser of Allander Institute told us the other week. Perhaps the most immediately obvious impact will be on those people who have exercised their right to move within the single market. Over many years, there has been an on-going debate about the benefits and costs of immigration to our economy. Like most members of this Parliament, I have always been convinced that the net effect is clearly positive, yes for our economy but also for our people. The ugly tendency for many in politics and the media to manipulate this issue with racism and xenophobia has been shameful, but the objective evidence about the economic benefits has only grown clearer. There have undoubtedly been stresses and pressures. Those are felt most keenly, in fact, by the very people who are forced to move in desperate circumstances, far more so than those pressures are felt by people living safely in the UK. Aside from economic impacts, migration is not something unnatural. It is a human norm, always has been part of our story. The failure to plan and invest in the housing, services and infrastructure that is needed is a failure of government, made dramatically worse by the UK's austerity policies. The impact of Brexit on many people is clear. The first example in modern times of a political decision has left so many people uncertain about where they will even be allowed to live. The impact on our economy is not yet clear. Our public services, our universities and industry all depend on the ability to attract talent and to make use of people's creativity and energy. Overwhelmingly, we know that those people are more highly educated than most of the population, less likely to claim tax credits, benefits or to live in social housing than the rest of the population. Bizarrely, there are still people on the right of the political spectrum who insist that the UK can be part of a single market while simultaneously demolishing one of its essential pillars—free movement. For most people, their labour, selling their labour and using their spending power are the main things that people can trade in a market. If they are not free to move within a territory, that territory cannot be described as a single market. Most of us here might agree that it is desirable, even essential, to retain full access to that market. However, the reality is that we have very little say. Just as Scotland's view has been overridden in the referendum result itself, the new reckless faction of hard brexitiers on the Tory benches at Westminster has no interest in what we have to say about the value to Scotland of retaining access and membership of the single market. They are pursuing a fundamental structural change in the UK's economic relationship with the rest of the world, and lacking any evidence base for their position, all they have left to fall back on is their own hard-right ideology with an added tinge of post-colonial entitlement. Keith Brown I thank Patrick Harvie for taking intervention. I entirely agree with his description of the hard brexitiers in the UK Government. Will he now acknowledge that the Scottish Tories have joined those hard brexitiers, given Murdo Fraser's statement that he does not believe that it is essential to remain part of the single market and that we should have access to it? Patrick Harvie Indeed. If I have saved myself enough time, I will come on to the conservative contribution to the debate in a moment or two. The hard brexitiers may only be one group within the Tory ranks, but the UK Government itself, the front bench, is giving no clarity about what it is even seeking to achieve. The defenders of that Government have claimed that it should not be expected to show its hand before the negotiations begin. That is not about showing its hand, it is simply about naming the game. What does a win even look like? What are they seeking to achieve? The Scottish Government is in a difficult position. I respect that and recognise it, but it is going to be clear, whatever comes down the line from the autumn budget statement, that Scottish Government responses with devolved powers are also going to be necessary to protect investment in housing, in the infrastructure programme such as the energy efficiency programme, in wide general access to public services and public sector pay will also have an impact on economic activity. Private sector investment uncertainty is a huge barrier to that, but it also needs ethical context. The Scottish growth fund could contribute to that not just by offering a free-for-all but by giving specific support to the kind of businesses that we want to see grow in Scotland. We are also going to need to have a more creative approach to taxation than the Scottish Government has yet set out. The emphasis in the Government motion is not quite as we might have written it in the Greens and Labour's call for further action in their amendment is not specific. We might have different ideas about what that further action might be, but on balance, both of those positions have much to commend them and we will be supporting both. On the Tory amendment, in closing, there are three main points, it seems. First of all, echoing the eternal whining for lower taxation. Despite decades of continual cuts to corporate taxation, businesses should not be expected to pay their local taxes either. Secondly, returning to their obsession with the constitution and the blinker desire to prevent Scottish voters from even considering the option of independence. Thirdly, utterly abandoning any credit that Ruth Davidson gained during the Brexit debate. One minute, the Scottish Tories are facing down Boris and the Brexiteers predicting leave as a disaster, and now they have rolled over ignoring their own convictions about Scotland's interests. Murdo Fraser accuses the Scottish Government of sitting on the sidelines. Well, if all that Government was doing was sitting back and letting Brexit roll over us, I would have no confidence in them. However, while there is still a chance to protect Scotland's place in Europe, our economy's access to the single market, the Scottish Greens will continue to hold the Scottish Government to its duty to do all that it can. When surveyed in the months before the EU referendum, 76.5 per cent of Aberdeen and Grampian Chamber of Commerce respondents said that they would vote to remain in the EU. If Britain left the EU, around 40 per cent of respondents believed that there would be a negative impact on their company's profitability and their import-export strategies. Many feared the impact on staffing if they no longer had the labour pool produced by the freedom of movement. A report produced by the chamber last month stated that, the prevailing theme is a request for clarity on the political and constitutional process of Brexit. If Mr Fraser wants an answer to the so-called lack of confidence, I suggest that that is it. Right now, those businesses, of course, have no option but to carry on with the day-to-day operations in an already challenging economic climate. However, as Richard Leonard pointed out, that when the impact does hit, the people who feel it first and most keenly will be the people in employment of those businesses. The principles of the two universities of Aberdeen, which are world leaders in research and innovation around energy, ecology and bioscience, are heavily dependent on EU and international funding and, in turn, providing skills resources and generating opportunities for many of the companies in those fields in the north-east and removing heaven and earth to minimise the already worrying impact of the Brexit decision. That is before the EU funding is even withdrawn. Already, our universities are finding themselves left out of future plans for collaborative research across the globe. Yes, not just from collaborations with their EU partners but their global partners. Both universities generate millions of pounds for the north-east economy and a lot of that is a result of EU membership through grant support that funds much of their work or the EU talent that they make up their teaching research and student body that also live in the area. Frankly, the decision to leave any Scottish universities out of the post-study work visa pilot is scandalous and compounds the damage potential of Brexit. Outside the city, in the middle of harvest time, many growers, particularly in soft fruit, will be wondering if they can rely on up to 1,500 EU nationals who are employed seasonally to pick and pack the fruit as years progress. Issues around workforce similarly affect the hospitality sector, and I am interested to hear that Rachel suggests that perhaps EU nationals will be replaced by school pupils. Of course, my friendly colleague Stuart Stevenson has mentioned the issues with north-east fish processors, one of which is in my constituency in mint law, who rely on EU nationals who work there to satisfy their orders in business. It is also estimated that 50 per cent of meat processing workers are from outside the UK. Not only are those people facilitating our industries, they are also paying income tax and spending their money locally. Where are the guarantees to the current UK taxpayers who may be forced to leave if freedom of movement becomes a thing of the past? Where is the evidence of the so-called opportunities that the leader of those Tory benches now suddenly thinks are out there when she previously spoke so passionately against leaving the EU? I must confess that I am not convinced by the new script handed to the Tory benches by the new boss. It is somewhat odd with the majority of their contributions to the EU debate in early June. If those opportunities are solely because of a temporary reduction in the value of the pound due to the money market shock at our decision in June, I will need a bit more persuading on the long-term value of those so-called opportunities. It is a little like saying that the devaluation of the German mark in the 1920s Weimar Republic was good for suitcase and wheelbarrow salesmen. I will make this point and I will make it strongly. In 2012, when constitutional change was up for discussion and a referendum vote, the SNP Government published a 700-page blueprint outlining how we saw Scotland operating after a yes vote. For many of our opponents, that still was not detailed enough. Yet when asked to vote in 2016's constitutional decision of a seismic magnitude, the public had nothing in print to refer to about how a post-Brexit Britain might work. Slogans on buses do not count, apparently. Now in the aftermath, there is still nothing that gives our public services, businesses, education sector and citizens any idea of what Brexit will mean economically. What now that we are in this situation that Scotland did not vote for and that nearly every parliamentarian across the parties in this chamber spoke against, will appear that it falls to the Scottish Government to roll out economic stimulus packages as evidence in the cabinet secretary's speech. It is time for Westminster to step up to the plate and take their economic responsibility for Scotland seriously and do the same. Informers of and involve us in the detail of any negotiations to guarantee our business access to EU markets, guarantee our workforce will not be stripped of the thousands of EU nationals, and provide our world-class and local economy-powering educational establishments the promises they need to reassure their partners, students and staff that they have stability beyond 2020. At the moment, it feels a little bit like the Tories have crashed our car and are now sending us the bill for the damage. Alexander Burnett, followed by Stuart Stevenson. I thank the Deputy Presiding Officer for the opportunity to speak on Scotland's economy and how it responds to the EU referendum. Firstly, it is important to note that Scotland voting to remain did not at any point give the SNP any right to hold a second referendum on Scotland's independence. By their action now, the SNP are putting Scottish energy firms on the back foot with dwindling levels of foreign investment compared to the rest of the UK. Whilst not everyone in the United Kingdom may have been happy with the result, we must start making a success at Brexit. The SNP need to realise that Brexit is a great opportunity for our energy sector. From creating a specific flexible energy system to being freed from the shackles of EU energy directives, the Scottish Government should be ready to support an industry ready to grow and welcome the opportunities ahead. Patrick Harvie. I would be interested if the member could give examples of specific EU energy directives that he wants repped up. Alexander Burnett. Whilst the north-east is a global hub of oil and gas companies, it is just that, global. For many companies in Aberdeen, the North Sea provides only a fraction of their business and a weaker pound has greatly assisted export revenues. Take Balmoral Offshore Engineering, a company that I visited only a month ago, where 90 per cent of its business in buoyancy and insulation products are exported to emerging markets as far afield as South America. It is essential that we seize this break for our export market and allow them to boost our Scottish economy. In dire need of investment after nine years of SNP rule. I can only hope, unlike fracking, that this is an opportunity that the Scottish Government won't miss. Brexit also gives us the opportunity to rid ourselves of overreaching EU policy makers and preventing our remote communities from getting their specific energy requirements as a result of breaching state aid rules. Currently, the UK Government is unable to target our Scottish islands with specific energy policies as they contradict energy market rules set by Brussels. The opportunity of Brexit gives us the chance to create a tailored Scottish energy system, where we can ensure that all Scottish consumers get reliable, clean and affordable energy. Bureaucratic EU procurement laws also mean that we can't favour Scottish energy companies for contracts. Instead, we force our companies to compete with a continent where other countries still support state enterprises and have a very different view to state aid rules. Rules that, even when broken, are proved so long after the fact that the damage has already been done. On energy security, another key point to make is that, whilst we may have left the EU, we certainly haven't left Europe. Our energy security does not rely on our membership of a single market either. We haven't holed up our anchors and sailed away, quite the opposite, for we are tethered to the continent through a vast series of interconnectedness. A majority of those in the North Sea connect us to Norway, one of our major energy suppliers and a non-EU member, and a clear demonstration of the lack of reliance the UK has on the EU for energy demand. I would also welcome the plan for a further interconnected with Iceland, a country of 300,000 people, again a country thriving outside of EU energy. Mike Rumbles I'm a little confused with his argument. I just wanted to make it clear, are you as an individual in favour of remaining in the single market or your argument seems to be saying that we should be leaving it? Which is it? Alexander Burnett I think that. That question has already been answered earlier by my colleague Murdo Fraser. It's not the membership of a single market which is important, it is the access to the single market which is important, and that is the basis for which we will be negotiating. I would have thought if a Scottish Government got on board with that and ensured that we had the best access to whether it would be energy or other goods or products or services, we would be stronger co-operating with all parts of the United Kingdom. However, on a more global issue such as climate change, whilst our environment, climate change and land reform committee has raised the question of Brexit several times, not once it has been suggested that the goals for the forthcoming climate change bill will be lowered by recent events. Our climate change goals will not change, they are enshrined at a national level rather than an EU level, and we should be proud of the progress that we have made. On a more topical source of energy given recent events, the SNP will also be pleased to hear that our main supplier of imported shale gas, America, is also a non-EU member. My only displeasure with this trade is that it is coming at the cost of Scottish jobs and our economy. Ineos, who operate the Grangemouth plant, will celebrate the first shale gas shipment arriving in Scotland next week. They say that shale gas has helped safeguard the future of the plant and created new jobs and investment. However, the Scottish Government has snubbed the event, prompting suspicions that it does not want to be associated with fracking. This is a childish approach that would not be replicated across the world, and it is time for nationalists to recognise the value of shale. Whilst a weak pound is good for our exports and manufacturing businesses, it is certainly not the time to be spending harder and foreign exchange on fuel that we could be producing here. It is clear that when it comes to the United Kingdom's balance of payments, the SNP would rather put self-interest before the economic interests of the country. I think that we can all see now that the SNP will only see Brexit as an opportunity for self-interest and never for the opportunities that Scotland's economy demands. It is vitally important that the SNP starts to make Scotland a global leader in energy and put that ideological need for a further independence referendum to bed. Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. Let me just pick up a couple of points that there are in particular in Liam Kerr. Let me start with a point of agreement with Liam Kerr just to set a favourable tone. Change is certainly an opportunity for those who have the energy and the ideas, but it is also a challenge that we also have to respond to. That is always the case for whatever the nature of change, so at least I start with that agreement. I am just going to briefly pick up the point that the Government has never said anything about the feros and the fishing. 10 August 2010, Richard Lochhead condemned Icelandic feros. Parliamentary answer 10 February 2012, I will give you the numbers so that you can write it down, S4W-05594 to Jeane Arkart. No access to feros waters regrettable. In 2014, the First Minister met the Faroese Prime Minister to discuss the subject. 9 December 2015, Richard Lochhead said that the fisheries, the own relation to the feros, is unacceptable. If I had had as much time researching his false claim, as I have spent rebutting it, I could have come up with a thousand-page book, I suspect. No, he will not, because he is now going to move on to Murdo Fraser. Murdo Fraser made reference to state-aid rules. Of course, he is correct. If you are outside the EU, the state-aid rules of the EU are not binding upon the UK. That is probably a fair comment. However, abandoning the state-aid rules is not without pain if you wish to trade with the EU. You will find that you are unable to do so. Let me pick up the point that has emerged in the debate, having access to the single market or being a member of the single market. In particular, I use Switzerland as an example that has access to the single market but is not a member of the single market. What that means in practice is that they can trade in goods across the border, by and large, but there are significant restrictions on access for agricultural goods, very little access for professional services and virtually no access for financial services. That is not trivial matter. 12 per cent of the UK economy is financial services. It is put 12 per cent of the economic output of the UK. In considering whether we should be a member or merely have access, do not imagine that they equate to each other. Their choices can be made, that is perfectly proper, but they are not the same thing that Switzerland tells of that. I have been talking about banking. I should declare that I voluntarily set in my register of interests that I have shares in Lloydsbank below the declarable limit. I want to talk a bit about the area that I represent, Aberdeenshire Council and Murray Council, in my constituency. A study that Aberdeenshire Council undertook suggests that there might be £11 million at risk. That will be repeated across Scotland in different ways, in particular at the North East Scotland Fisheries Local Action Group through the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund are likely to lose money. The North East farming sector receives between £75 million and £100 million in EU subsidies. They appear to be guaranteed for some period of time, but the long-term is very uncertain indeed. I want to talk a little bit about technology generally and how leaving the EU and being outside the European single market might affect them. In particular, the Unitary Patent Court. At the moment, if you wish to register a patent in the EU, you can do so once. Outside the EU, outside the Unitary Patent Court, which is a creature of the EU, you will have to register your patents 38 times. That is a significant burden on innovation in Scotland, which, of course, invented most of the modern world, but in the UK as a whole. Of course, we will have far less influence over patent law. We will also be shutting ourselves off from the European digital single market, which provides data protection, better access to products and services that reduce costs and is driving acceptance and innovation of digital services by setting pan-European standards—for example, the debate around the prospective 5G mobile phone communications. That is important to Scotland and to the UK. Some constituencies will be more effective than others, it is fair to say. A constituency, for example, that has the headquarters of Tesla Motors in the EU is the headquarters to Hutchison 3G, Informatica, Adobe, which are products that we use every day, and Quest software and a huge number of others. Where are these particular companies? They are in Maidenhead. Those of you who may know a little bit about it are the constituency that the Prime Minister represents. I hope that, when she sits down with these companies and looks at the problems that innovators and technology companies are going to experience as a result of the policy that her Government has put in place, it will find that she is challenged. I hope that that leads to her realising that we have to minimise the adverse impact of leaving the EU by ensuring that we stay not simply having access to the single market but members of the single market. Finally, a survey of 1,000 Europeans working in the UK by total jobs suggests that 25 per cent of them are prepared to reconsider career options outside the UK. If we do not have free movement of people, another hammer will blow. David Stewart, to be followed by Tavish Scott. Thank you, Presiding Officer. I welcome Mike Russell to his new post. I wish him well in his negotiation with Westminster. Whatever side we are in the Brexit argument, there is one issue that unites both sides of this debate, that the referendum result is thrown the UK into deep and uncharted waters. No complete member state has ever left the EU, the world's largest single market, with 550 million people, where 50 per cent of the UK's experts are sold tariff-free with no trade barriers. Even, Presiding Officer, the ancient Highland mystic, the brand seer, would struggle to predict the economic health of Scotland and the UK post-Brexit. Former US Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld famously talked about known knowns. What do we know about Brexit and what are the known knowns? There is not a lot, Presiding Officer. We know about of course article 50 of the Lisbon treaty. The section that allows a member state to leave the EU seems to me to be drafted as an afterthought to a redundant section that was never designed to be used. We also know that only the UK can invoke the article for our country, that there will not be a vote in the commons prior to invoking the article, there is no evidence that I can see of a second referendum notwithstanding the petition of more than 4 million people who have signed calling for one, nor any evidence of an early general election. Article 50 specifies that all other 27 countries in the EU will negotiate with the state that is leaving, and that is up to two years, unless extended, to sort out trade negotiations. One trade negotiation that I want to highlight, Presiding Officer, is the EU internal market, which formalises restrictions on productions and protects geographic indication. As you would guess, I have a local issue, which is that Stornoway Black Pudding is protected by this designation. Clearly, if we leave the protection for excellent Stornoway Black Pudding and, indeed, whisky in America, which is also protected by its designation, it would fall. Once the timetable has expired, the default trade position is that we rely on basic world trade organisation agreements. The world trade organisation chief executive, Roberto Axvedo, said in the Guardian back in May this year that Brexit would bring back trade barriers of £9 billion a year to British consumers. He went on to say that the UK will be forced to negotiate trade deals with all 161 world trade organisation members, akin to joining from scratch. He said in a quote, Presiding Officer, that the consumer in the UK will have to pay those duties. The UK is not in a position to decide that I am not charging duties here. That is impossible. That is illegal. How realistic is the two-year timescale for Brexit? Let us look at a comparison. The comprehensive economic and trade agreement, CETA, between the EU and Canada, is a negotiated and bilateral agreement that has been on the table for, wait for it, seven years and is still not in force. However, I would like to focus on the impact of Brexit on the Highlands and Islands, my region. Historically, the Highlands and Islands has faced economic and social challenges, depopulation, lower economic activity than the rest of Scotland, seasonality, perfality, poor transport and infrastructure, and the loss of young people. Only recently has this been reversed, and the EU regional territorial cohesin policies have been the key transformation agent. The Highlands and Islands are the Scotland's only transition region, and although the main money to me is the loss of European structural and investment funds, there are other concerns on the rise, and I would like to flack up as well. The loss of inter-egg, the loss of horizon 2020, the loss of Cosme, which is the business support, and the loss of Erasmus+. Can the minister in the wind-up confirm if the funds allocated to ESIF will survive once the funds are repatriated through the co-financing objectives? A present emphasis on regional policy that takes into account the different challenges that affect regions that Hans Nylans is not just in place across the UK, and its own three funding support and policies from the EU that factors like population and workforce planning, communications, distance from markets, and the higher cost of doing business in remote areas is being addressed. Presiding Officer, I am concerned that, unless the impact of the EU's support and policies to Hans Nylans are too recognized and understood, Brexit will have a calamitous impact on the future economic growth of the region. Of course, I understand that some might argue what has Europe ever done for us in the highlands and islands. I would say that look at the funding for the university of the Hans islands, look at the funding for the European Marine Industry Centre in Orkney, the funding for the marine centre in Oban, the Department of Lithuodonics in the Venice, ferry terminals in Stornoway, Scrubter and Stromness, the Western Isle Spinal route, air terminals, business support and let's not forget the Keswick bridge. Losing the support and finance of the EU will not be made even more bruising to the region if Scotland loses access to the single market. The Hans Nylans, as members will all know, is a significant exporter to the rest of Europe, particularly in the nation's excellent food and drink sector, mostly whisky and seafood. Having to pay for access to the market will cause Scotland to lose a competitive edge and lead to the loss of much investment. Certains around issues such as those are already having an impact in investments with many plans being proposed or cancelled altogether. I think that the cabinet secretary referred to the high report, which flagged up that very point. Additionally, the work of CAP can't be underestimated to the Hans Nylans economy, with so many people in the region reliant on agriculture both directly and indirectly. In conclusion, I believe that that is the most important issue for the future of the Scottish economy. The pathway ahead is not clear, but in the words of the celebrated code breaker, Alan Turing, we can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty of things there that need to be done. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. This is the second Brexit debate in a week, and we're due another one next week, I'm told, as well. I've been puzzling as to why that would be, but it occurred to me just now, because I see Mike Russell's going to respond on behalf of the Government today. I feel a bit sorry for Mike Russell, because there's no process yet in place, and there is, of course, no negotiating position yet to negotiate on. So, they've decided to fill poor Mike Russell's diary with endless debates about Brexit. I think we'll have to bring Jamie McGregor back and debate nephrops in Brexit before very long. Keith Brown started his, or during his remarks today, by challenging the chamber to come up with some ideas and proposals around what would be helpful for the Scottish economy, which I thought was an entirely fair charge. So, four things came to me as he offered that challenge to Parliament this afternoon. The first is the report that the Fraser of Allander Institute published last week, which for all of us, irrespective of where we are and the political spectrum, must be the most seminal piece of research done on public spending in recent years. It suggests that we face, by 2021, a 1.6 billion or 6 per cent cut in public spending. They suggest that one of those areas may be local authorities who could face a cut of £1 billion again in their spending over the next number of years. My first suggestion to the Government would be to publish even a draft budget, because one of the aspects that all businesses, the voluntary sector and local authorities, who need to ensure that they look to the future number of years and how they can react to both the public spending squeeze that we face but also the economic circumstances that will at some stage be caused by Brexit would be to have a budget not left to the last minute, as I fear we may be heading for, but instead published in very short order indeed. I encourage the Government to do that. The second is to take up Jenny Marr's point about decommissioning. The only point that I disagreed with Jenny Marr on was that there were options for Brent. One of them was Lerwick, and they bypassed that, as she rightly said, to take those oil, or they are currently taking some of those top sides down to T side. From my point of view, at least those jobs are in the UK. She made a fair point about Merce going to Norway. What I hope the Cabinet Secretary, the Economy Secretary, might again stress to the Treasury is he made a fair point about the importance of loan guarantees in which I agree with. I, like Jenny Marr, want to see tax relief that is provided to the oil and gas sector tied to the jobs being held in the UK. I'd like them all in Lerwick, Jenny, we'd like them Dundee, we'd all like them at least in our country. I hope that the Cabinet Secretary will take that as a second example. The third example is on fishing. A number of members have raised that. The only point that I disagree with Stuart Stevenson on that is that he cited all these PQs and various other things about the fairways. The fairways won that argument, as he well knows. So, we all lost that one, and it doesn't matter. The UK Government and the Scottish Government were in the same place on that, and that is one of the reasons that the Scottish fishing industry and the pelagic industry in particular detest the common fisheries policy and don't have a lot of time for the European Union as well. So, for my other suggestion on this to the Government is that I believe that they need to instruct civil servants to move ahead with a new fisheries policy for Scotland. They need to do the same for agriculture as well, because one way or another we are going to have a different kind of agriculture policy. I hope that they would take up this challenge of however many years we may now have before this comes to fruition to work on that, because I suspect that many of us across politics would agree about the need for something very different than we have at the moment. My final example is on developing Scotland's Young Workforce. If there is something that I want to see in this Parliament, it is that we value the vocational routes into work as business want, as Ian Wood's commission made so clear three years ago. We value the vocational routes into work and embed that in schools at a much earlier stage than always the pursuit of academic performance and academic statistics and, in other words, the pursuit of just an academic route into work. That would be my other suggestion for the Government, because I fear that now that they have mainstreamed to use that terrible word that we all use—that spending—there will not be the same focus around developing Scotland's Young Workforce as when Sir Ian Wood produced that report, and the Government rightly took it forward. The final suggestion that I have got for Mr Bryan, as I suspect that he will not take up, is that I also think that he should drop any suggestion of bringing back a second referendum on independence. I do not think that that would be helpful. Business does not believe that it would be helpful. What we could do is as much stability as we could possibly have in Scotland to contrast with the uncertainty that we have got south of the border. I must confess that all the Tory speeches today have sounded even more Eurosceptic than the last lot, but Mr Bryan cited a study that said that everything is fine. I have to say to him that the Chartered Management Institute—I have to confess that I had not heard of the Chartered Management Institute. I am sure that it is a very learned body—produced a report that was published yesterday in which it cited that most bosses—this is across the whole of the UK—predicted slowing growth over the next 12 to 18 months. Only a third of those bosses saw Brexit as paving the way to better times over the next three to five years. The chief executive of the Chartered Management Institute said that Brexit uncertainty has made many managers deeply anxious about growth, finance and access to talent from EU countries. We need to get some balance into that, and that is supported by Highlands and Islands Enterprise's survey of companies. Although David Stewart has just mentioned the importance of business in the Highlands and Islands, I would accord with that view. The findings of their latest survey of major companies in the Highlands and Islands show that 55 per cent of businesses said that the result—i.e., the Brexit vote—made them feel less confident in the future of the Scottish economy. For every study that is cited from the Conservative benches saying that the world is wonderful and there are huge opportunities, there are far more from business—not from those of us who may actually believe in the European Union but from business—saying that this is not the best way to be. I just want to finish, if I may, Deputy Presiding Officer, with Theresa May in New York today. Last night, I read that she met Wall Street bankers to try and convince them that Brexit—whatever Brexit means to the Prime Minister today—will not mean that they should leave the city of London. As I have tried to argue before, I think that the city of London is the most important aspect in the UK sense of why this is so damaging for the future of the UK and for the future of Scotland. The fact that the Prime Minister had to spend time drinking wine with city bankers in New York last night, for me, says it all. A key element of our continued relationship with the EU must be to remain as a member of the EU single market. Today's debate has certainly underlined the importance of that, but getting the right deal for Scotland in circumstances, not if we were choosing, must be the sheer name of every single MSP and everyone in the country, yet almost three months have passed since the result of the referendum, and yet we still have no idea whether or not the UK Government actually wishes to remain within the single market. I think that there is a vital point that has not been highlighted often enough in this debate. Although we have had the result of the referendum, Brexit has not yet happened. No matter what analysis has been published and no matter what we have heard today from the Conservative benches, Brexit has not yet happened, so we have not yet got the full economic implications for Scotland's economy because of that decision that was taken. As the First Minister stated, when launching the programme for government earlier this month, the Scottish Government is determined to build on a economy in which everyone has a fair chance to contribute and share in the benefits of economic growth. The Ernst and Young attractiveness survey of May of this year shows that, in 2015, Scotland attracted more foreign direct investment projects than anywhere else in the UK outside of London. I want to touch upon some comments that Richard Leonard mentioned earlier on—it is a shame that Richard Leonard is not here—but I have a huge amount of sympathy for some of the comments that Richard Leonard actually made. I have a huge amount of sympathy in relation to indigenous companies, but at the same time we also have to be fair to international companies when they come to invest in Scotland. I will give you two examples. IBM has been in Scotland for 62 years, and National Semiconductor, Texas Instruments, has been in Scotland for 46 years. I admit that the numbers of folk working in those two businesses have certainly decreased and that Texas Instruments are going to be leaving, but they have still been here up to now for 46 years. That length of time that has been here has certainly helped to contribute to not just the local economy but the Scottish economy. Certainly, continuing economic recovery in Scotland is, of course, threatened by the outcome of the EU referendum. Tory recklessness in Scotland means that Scotland is facing the possibility of being taken out of the EU against its will, and it could put jobs, investment and economic growth at risk. As I have heard today from the Fraser Vallander Institute, the report noted that Scotland's comparative success in attracting international investment and strengthening exports in recent years has highlighted the challenges that are created by Brexit, which could result in a slowdown and foreign direct investment. Analysis also shows that the next 10 years, the level of GDP in Scotland could be between 2 per cent and 5 per cent lower than it would otherwise have been because of the impact of Brexit. The decision to leave the EU's forecast to have a detrimental impact on long-term economic prospects—investment, household incomes, employment and the long-run supply potential of the economy—could all be lower, although any effects might take some time to emerge. David Stewart in his contribution quoted the figure of some £9 billion across the UK. That is a huge amount of money to be taken out of any economy. Trade could be hit particularly hard, and the EU accounts were just over 40 per cent of all Scotland's international exports, i.e. excluding exports to the rest of the UK. That is more than North America, Asia, South America, Middle East and Australasia combined. I am quite sure that the Conservatives met in their contributions earlier, but the rest of the UK is a more important trading partner. That is certainly in terms of figures that that is there to see. However, why should we put all the eggs in that one basket? We need to make sure that Scotland's economy can withstand a lot—just two seconds, if I may. We need to make sure that Scotland's economy can withstand much of the pressures that might come from international events. Rachael Hamilton Would Stewart McMillan not consider £42.6 billion versus £11.2 billion, which is the difference between the domestic market and the European market, which is not significant? Stewart McMillan I did not downplay the significance or otherwise of the level of trade between Scotland and the rest of the UK and elsewhere, but why should we focus and put all our eggs in that one basket? If there is some major shock in that one particular economy, that would certainly have an adverse effect on Scotland's economy. Many companies in Scotland and the rest of the UK are also part of the complex international supply chains. That means that it is not just access to export markets but EU imports, which are important in recent years. Scotland has performed well into national investment, rivaling the south-east of England as a second biggest location for FDI projects after London. It is driven in part by the skilled workforce but also the UK as an access point to the single market. Foreign direct investment has strong links to productivity through the transfer of knowledge, skills, best practice technology and innovation. However, businesses will not and cannot adjust their plans overnight and plant and machinery are immobile in the short run. Moreover, for the time being, Scotland and the UK remain within the EU. In terms of trade, regulation and free movement, nothing has changed thus far. It is likely to be only a matter of time, however, before expectations of reduced integration feed through to day-to-day investment production operations, R&D activities, employment and household spending decisions. On that point about R&D, R&D is absolutely vital for the future of the economy. The example that I will give is IBM in 1999-2000, when the R&D department closed, and then the assembly and manufacturing and IBM in Greenock started to decline. Since the result of the EU referendum, the Scottish Government has lost no time in engaging fully and robustly on all fronts. As businesses continue to face the on-going uncertainty created by the UK-wide vote to leave the UK, our planned £500 million Scottish growth fund is designed to support it, the workforce and the economy to grow. The Conservatives are talking about opportunities, and I am conscious of the time, the Conservatives are talking about opportunities. From what I can see in terms of opportunities for students and the economic impact that they can have, that is going to decrease if there is going to be additional costs placed upon them. The opportunity for tourism, once again, as members will know, I chair the cross-particle on recreational boating and marine tourism. We had the strategy that we launched last year to push and promote marine tourism in Scotland. What is going to happen to the marinas? Are they going to have to have visa access points installed in them for when sailors come in from EU nations? Brexit has not yet happened. There are huge challenges that are going to face Scotland and the rest of the UK, and, despite what the Conservatives are saying, we are in for some bumpy times ahead, and it is going to have an adverse effect upon our economy. As I would like to talk about the rural economy, I would like to declare an interest that I am a partner in a farming partnership in Scotland. The vote that we had on 23 June resulted in a decision that I did not seek, but it is one that I totally accept, because it is a democratic choice of the United Kingdom, and we are part of that United Kingdom. Whilst in Dornock, just after the referendum, I visited the newly refurbished coffee room in the old jailhouse. Firstly, I would like to encourage you all to go there and to visit and see if you can resist the temptations, the edible temptations that are on offer. I could not. Secondly, I would like to share with you the resolve that it gave me on how to deal with Brexit. Written on the wall was the following saying, If fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade. This sums up to me what we should be doing now, and it sums up what I believe is the stimulus that Scotland needs. Looking at opportunities and making the most of them is what our can-do farmers and rural business expect us to do. What they will never forgive us for doing is not rising to the challenge. Sadly, some of you have been witnessed in this debate this afternoon. Do not share that view and take the attitude that if fate hands you a lemon, throw it back, saying it will always be sour. On 30 August, the rural economy in Scotland turned to us once again and expected the Parliament to start working on what is going to happen post-2020, the date when farm subsidies have been guaranteed until. I will focus you in back that up by saying that, on 13 September, there was a need for stability in the agricultural sector, and I would like to quote him. I am sure that all of us in this chamber can agree that farmers and their families need certainty in these uncertain times. We should be working towards that. I call on the Scottish Government and those in this chamber to look upon the future of Scottish farming and the 65,000 people directly involved in it, and I will give way at that stage. Stuart McMillan I thank Edward Mountain for taking intervention. His point regarding farmers and their families is looking for certainty, but surely every member of the country should actually have that certainty. Edward Mountain Absolutely. Certainty comes from knowing that we are working on things, but I am talking about specifically the rural economy. I want to go back to that, if I may. I would like to put on this on the rural economy and make it on the record, if I may, that farmers in many remote rural areas such as Sir Highlands are the backbone of that economy, providing jobs, food and looking after the environment. They do so sometimes in the most inhospitable conditions, working long hours being the norm rather than the exception. They are facing this year higher input prices, as we know, which are not reflected in farm gate prices. Indeed, many of those farmers this year sold grain and received the same price that they did 30 years ago. That is not sustainable, but it is bearable because of subsidies. Therefore, I strongly believe that all farmers, although they would like to farm without subsidies, realistically it is probably not possible because of the rules and regulations, especially if we demand cheap food. We need now, as a chamber, to start working on the future of agricultural support and how we want to ensure food security. I think that we have a real opportunity, and the opportunity is not asked to squander by saying that I want to remain in the EU and will not consider the alternatives. We will be seen as being petulant and destructive. I want to move on and ask about protecting our markets. For example, we export to the EU some 34,000 tonnes of farm salmon, which, to put it into context, is nearly two salmon for every person that lives in Scotland. It is an important market. Let me be clear that we need to retain access to that market. To those who are already being negative saying that this is not a concept that we can have, let me point out that there are many producers in Europe who will be demanding the same access to our markets, so we need to be constructive and not destructive about opening up markets. Sorry, I have given way once, and I know that the Presiding Officer is particularly... Oh well, if you are going to give me leeway, you said the other day that you wouldn't. Just a little today is a new day, Mr Mountain. Good way to Mr Harvey. In which case I am very grateful, and I would simply like to ask, as he is so concerned about businesses having access to the single market, does he not accept that, to qualify as being a single market, citizens must have access to it as well, not just businesses, and that means the freedom to move? Edward Mountain. That is exactly the point that I am saying and talking about. I am saying the point is that we need to be constructive and look at all the opportunities to make sure that our businesses succeed. I fully accept, as I am sure that everyone else does on the side of the chamber, that we need people to help us get in our harvest in the rural areas, and therefore we should be open to that, as well as being open to exporting food. But just by saying that we have got to give freedom of movement, actually it is not being constructive, it is being limiting. So I want to now just go on, if I may, having answered that question, is to look at trade deals, because trade deals are a real possibility. And I think that we should be looking to working with the UK Government to make those a reality. We have identified areas, and everyone here knows on them, how we can improve on trade deals, reducing the 3,000 per cent duty on whisky imports to Egypt, reducing and getting rid of the ban on beef and lamb imports to the USA. We need to be working with the Government in the UK saying that we are open for business and not just saying to them that we are not going to play in the reforms that lie ahead, which I fear is some people's approach. Now I hope that the appointment of Mike Russell will lead to positive discussions, and not just another chance to seek to do what his party believes in, which is to state the negatives of Brexit and to suggest that the only way forward is by independence. Now there is one other issue that I would like to dwell on, if I may, and that is environmental regulations. For too long, managers, whether they are farmers, keepers, conservation or foresters have had to deal with EU legislation that regulates and restricts what they do. We now have the very real opportunity to look again at those regulations, and we should take that. However, what we should not do is rush blindly into replacing the rules that have been EU-driven by rules that do not serve Scotland. We have got to make sure that the new rules do. For example, earlier this year the EU went through the process of trying to plan glycophosphate, and that failed because we were only given extension for 18 months. It is a vital chemical that we use not only for farmers but for councils and for gardeners. There is no suitable alternative, so to lose that would be a disaster. We should start to welcome the opportunities that Brexit might offer us and review the regulations, but not taking the lowest common denominator. Your extension is rapidly running out, Mr Rownton? I promise not to wear that T-shirt again. Throughout what I have said, I hope that it is possible that you will see that there is a common theme from what I am saying. We have not chosen to be where we are with the EU, but to fight it is not constructive. What is constructive is to seize the opportunities that have been created, run with them as farmers and rural businesses do every day and will expect us to do. I simply say to the chamber that, with our lemons, we must make lemonade and not just continue to make sour-looking faces. My face was in great danger of becoming very sour. Can I call Ben Macpherson, please, the last of the open speeches? Before being elected, I spent several years working as a commercial lawyer at the heart of Scotland's economic activity. In my experience, in that role and in other roles, I have witnessed first-hand just how much of an attractive and stable place Scotland is to do business. Let us remember that, while, of course, there is the need for improvement and we face significant challenges. Our professional services sector is world-class. The depth and quality of our labour market is outstanding. We have phenomenal natural resources, wide-ranging creativity, highly successful established industries and strong growth in new pioneering sectors. In recent years, Scotland's productivity rate has grown at a faster pace than the rest of the UK. As has already been mentioned, inward investment has expanded, and employment levels are up. In the context of the Brexit vote, let us emphasise that Scotland is still very much an attractive and stable place to do business. However, with the Brexit vote, there is no doubt that the outcome of that EU referendum presents significant challenges. That is why I warmly welcome the measures announced by the cabinet secretary today, particularly the £0.5 billion investment from the Scottish Government to establish a new Scottish growth scheme and the move that the First Minister took in the summer to bring forward 100 million of additional capital spending to boost the economy in these uncertain times. Those measures will support start-ups and export growth. They will have a multiplier effect and create demand in our local economies. They will have a direct impact on job creation, and we should all welcome that. The Scottish Government is taking action to support our economy and mitigate the immediate effects of Brexit. What is baffling to me and many others in our communities and in the business community is why the UK Government is not doing similar. In order to support the economy in my constituency and across Scotland and, indeed, across this island, I strongly urge the UK Government to follow the initiative of the Scottish Government and lead at the earliest opportunity and bring forward a set of meaningful measures to stimulate the economy. What is more, we also need answers from the UK Government. As has been highlighted by several speakers today, another week is passing without clarity or comment from the British Government about membership of the single market. We have had no comment in recent times on the legal status of EU citizens. Furthermore, financial services, which are a very important part of our economy, are highlighted by Stuart Stevenson and particularly important here in Edinburgh. Because of that importance, we need clarity from the British Government about retaining passporting rights for that finance sector post Brexit, so that Scottish banks and other financial service companies can continue to operate anywhere in the EU while still based in Scotland. Last week at PMQ's, my colleague Deirdre Brock MP asked the Prime Minister whether she could give any assurances on this matter, and almost a week later, there still haven't been any assurances from the Prime Minister or from the British Government at all. What was interesting last week at Prime Minister's questions when Deirdre Brock asked the Prime Minister on the issue of financial passporting, the Prime Minister dodged answering this legitimate and important question about a hugely important sector with empty words about an independence referendum. Again today, it is the Scottish Conservatives who are going on about another independence referendum. The fact of the matter is that the reason why the Tories are talking about independence is because they do not have answers about Brexit. As I have already said, the Scottish Government has been taking action, noticeable action and meaningful action since the Brexit vote on 24 June. The British Government has done astoundingly little, almost next to nothing. Week after week in the last months, I have heard Conservative MSPs in this chamber or in media interviews that they have done at different points. I assert that the business community is significantly worried about the possibility of another Scottish independence referendum. However, the fact of the matter is that, on the ground and in the boardrooms across Scotland, and in my experience of talking to all sorts of different businesses from SMEs to PLCs, the most significant worry and concern for businesses in Scotland, the big issue is the real uncertainty about Brexit and the lack of clarity from the British Government. The Tories might want to keep trying to avoid talking about Brexit by using independence as a smokescreen, but there is no getting away from the real issues that face us about Brexit. Issues that have arisen as a result of a vote that is contrary to the popular will of the Scottish people, a Brexit result presided over and actively pursued by members of the British Government, a Brexit vote that we have, as Stuart McMillian rightly highlighted, yet to see the full consequences of. In the face of the challenges of Brexit, which we are facing together, I urge the British Government to follow the Scottish Government's example, to follow its lead by investing in a meaningful stimulus package to create demand and growth and by giving clarity on passporting rights for the finance sector and the single market. The people of Scotland are waiting and listening, and they need answers soon. We now move to the closing speeches. Now, I have to say, I was a bit over-generous to some backbenchers, so if we could be fairly tight please in the closing speeches. We have a very indignant looking Jackie Baillie. Seven minutes, not at all. I think that I was sucking on one of Edward Mountain's lemons. Can I welcome Michael Russell to his new post, but he will forgive me if I don't join in? Tom Arthur's very gushing tribute to him. It's perhaps the most gushing tribute I've ever heard in this chamber. Mr Arthur clearly wants a promotion. I do hope that the minister will absolutely resist Edward Mountain's suggestion that somehow we treat our response to Brexit as some kind of great British bake-off with a key ingredient being lemons. I've heard it all today, Presiding Officer. But let me welcome the opportunity to debate the impact of Brexit on the Scottish economy. It is the case that the people of Scotland voted by a significant margin to remain in the European Union. It is important that we respect that, that we reflect on people's wishes as we move forward. The minister would, of course, expect me to point out that it is also the case that an equally significant margin voted to remain in the United Kingdom, and we equally need to respect and reflect their wishes, too. The challenge for us is how we give expression to both. I would encourage the Government to do so, too, because I genuinely believe that the SNP will not be forgiven if they use very positive sentiments towards the European Union simply as a means of achieving independence. Instead, I hope that they focus on getting the very best deal for Scotland and in that we support them wholeheartedly. There is no doubt, Presiding Officer, that Brexit will have an impact on our economy. The overwhelming majority of commentators and economists believe that the impact will be negative. The cabinet secretary referred to an array of statistics that demonstrate that decline in economic growth. Already, though, we have seen signs of decline, but those were evident before Brexit. Scotland is underperforming the rest of the UK across a range of economic measures, and I do not think that any of us believe that that is good enough. On employment, on productivity, on growth, we are behind the rest of the UK, and growth projections have all been revised downwards, not just this year, but last year, Fraser of Allander described the economy as flirting with recession. I believe that we may have gone beyond flotation, and the consequences of that for the Scottish economy would be serious indeed for jobs and for workers in our communities. I would be pleased to hear what the Scottish Government will do about that. Keith Brown I am not sure whether I can thank Jackie Baillie for taking intervention and not going to beyond flotation. In relation to employment, the simple fact is that the Scottish economy is outperforming the UK economy. Not only that, it is outperforming every year of the Labour Liberal Democrat administration as well. Jackie Baillie I say that it is welcome that on that particular statistic we are now moving in the right direction, but one-quarter of improvement does not, in my view, is enough to deal with the under-performance of the Scottish economy. I hope that the cabinet secretary will be more ambitious. Let me echo some of the points that Richard Leonard made, because I think that they are important. They demonstrate how precarious our economy is. It is the case that, between 2007 and 2015, the size of the Scottish economy, which is overseas-owned, grew from 23 per cent to 34 per cent. That is quite a staggering increase in an incredibly short space of time. On the face of it, that seems like positive news. The Scottish Government itself concluded that Scotland outside the EU makes the country a less attractive location for overseas investors. We know that there are 1,000 EU-owned companies in Scotland employing something like 115,000 people. There are others outwith the EU that invest here to gain a foothold in that single market. Richard Leonard is right. We are more vulnerable to economic shocks as a consequence of our over-reliance on overseas-owned companies. Stuart McMillan should not misunderstand that. Of course, inward investment is welcome, but we are more vulnerable because of Brexit and it needs to be balanced against growth in our indigenous industry. The statistics tell us that we are much more exposed to the negative impact of Brexit than any other part of the UK. I want to turn to the Scottish Government's response, but before I do, let me make an observation. The SNP points to the UK Government and says that it must do something. The Tories point to the Scottish Government and say that it is the Scottish Government's responsibility. Frankly, that is the politics of the playground. The people of Scotland expect both Governments to work together to protect our interests and enhance our economy. I agree with the Scottish Government's view that there should be measures outlined in the autumn statement and that we really need more than a slogan and an empty Brexit means Brexit to take the country forward. That said, I think that the Scottish Government can and must do more itself. The £100 million capital stimulus is welcome but wholly inadequate. A point that Jenny Marra made very well is underspend from last year. I was told in a PQ today that that money is expected to support 800 jobs, half of them in construction. That is great, but I have to say to you that when you set this against the scale of the challenge that we face, 8,000 construction jobs lost just in the last year, analysis by Fraser of Allander Institute suggesting that unemployment will rise by more than 10,000 in the next two years. When faced with those challenges, do you really, really think that that is ambitious enough? I have to say that the £500 million business growth scheme is again welcome, but has it yet been agreed with the Treasury? It is a loan guarantee scheme. There is not actually £500 million on the table. I have to say to you as gently as I can that you will not be forgiven for announcing something where the detail has not been worked out, marching businesses up to the top of the hill and then abandoning them when you get there. I expect more from the Scottish Government. The cabinet secretary invited suggestions, and I will do so very quickly, but could I maybe make the suggestion that they look particularly at different economic sectors because economists say that the impact is likely to be variable, dependent on the sector, so understanding that will be important in informing our response. Scottish Labour set out a range of measures in our Brexit action plan, which was published at the start of the summer, and I commend that to the cabinet secretary. In closing, finally, let me quote the Fraser of Allander Institute, quoted by many in the chamber already. It said that economic strategies' priorities have been turned on their head by Brexit. It is simply not possible for policy to continue as normal. It is absolutely not business as usual. I would encourage the Scottish Government and the UK Government to get serious about this, to get beyond business as usual, to address the challenges that are facing our economy, our businesses and our people. Mr Lockhart, we are very tight now. Under nine minutes please. I understood. Thank you, Presiding Officer. Let me start by welcoming Mr Russell to his new role, and I also welcome the opportunity to be involved in a debate with Mr Brown, despite the fact that he never really answers questions we ask him. As you would expect, we have had a lively and interesting debate in the chamber this afternoon. During the debate, a number of members, especially on this side of the chamber, highlighted the opportunities arising from Brexit and others have discussed the policy response required to help to stimulate the economy. Before reflecting on those contributions, I would like to consider what does Brexit mean economically for Scotland. First of all, let me start by making it very clear that Brexit is not to blame for the current underperformance of the Scottish economy, as suggested by Mr Brown. If you look at the longer-term figures, it is clear that the underperformance in the Scottish economy has been a central feature of this Government's track record. Let me give Mr Brown just one example. The current size of the Scottish economy is only 4 per cent above pre-recession levels of 2008, whereas the rest of the UK has grown 23 per cent in that same period. How is that being stronger for Scotland? Just to remind Mr Brown, that includes periods when the oil price was above £110 a barrel. Mr Brown has also failed to deliver on the Scottish National Party's productivity target to have Scotland's productivity levels in the first quartile by next year. Keith Brown In his view of the Scottish economy, does he accept, as David Mundell appears to do, that there are two Governments that act in the economy, or is it simply the case that everything that he wants to derive about the Scottish economy is the responsibility of the Scottish Government? Is it two Governments or one? Dean Lockhart The divergence of the Scottish economy has been shown to be caused largely by uncertainty caused by the independence referendum. It has been shown. Business rates in Scotland with a large business supplement are twice the rates of England against what Mr Swinney said in the last Parliament. Perhaps that is another reason why the Scottish economy is underperforming. Let us be clear on this point. Brexit is not to blame for the economic stagnation that we are facing in Scotland. It is the SNP's mismanagement of the economy, the failure of policy implementation and the constant agitation for the second referendum on independence. In considering what Brexit really means for the Scottish economy, we need to look at our export markets and how we generate wealth. Our exports fall into three main categories. Exports go to the rest of the UK, which account for 64 per cent of our exports, making the UK by far our largest customer. Exports go to the European single market, accounting for 15 per cent. And exports go to the rest of the world, accounting for 21 per cent. There is one thing that is crystal clear in all of the post-Brexit analysis. Our economic and financial relationship with the UK is more important than ever. A membership of the UK single market is worth four times, as a number of my colleagues have said, is worth four times as much in terms of exports and jobs as the EU. Financially, as was highlighted by the GERS numbers, we benefit significantly by being a member of the United Kingdom to the tune of £15 billion. Alasdair Allan I thank the member for giving way. I am glad that he acknowledges the importance of the European single market. Does he draw a distinction between the two issues that one of his colleagues failed to draw a distinction between, which is membership of and access to the single market? Dean Lockhart Yes, I think that we have made our position quite clear. If you allow me to answer, the real issue is the level of access to the single market and the terms upon which that access is negotiated. That can be a bespoke agreement. The United Kingdom is the second largest economy in Europe, one of the fastest, if not the fastest growing economies in Europe. Europe exports more to us than vice versa, so I am pretty sure that we will have a strong negotiating position. The SNP's plans for Scotland to leave the UK and then try to rejoin the European Union, although a number of member states have said that they would veto that, make no economic sense whatsoever. However, we now know that the economy is a second consideration for the SNP. The First Minister of the weekend has told us that the case for independence ultimately transcends the issues of Brexit of oil and national wealth. Well, Mr Brown, try telling that to the 120,000 people who have lost their jobs in the North Sea. In the two-year period after the SNP white paper said, the oil price would remain above $110 a barrel. Small consolation. Let me now turn to the opportunities arising from Brexit, because they are extensive and global, and they have been outlined by my colleagues on the side of the chamber. Across a number of different sectors, farming, fishing, energy tourism and manufacturing as well as other exporters, the depreciation of sterling has resulted in a boost to our exporters, including the food and drink industry, the largest exporter in Scotland. I'm terribly sorry, I just had one of these blanks. I know that's fine. Great. Mr Lockhart and the rest of the chamber joined me in welcoming the news this afternoon that the Home Office has granted my constituents, the brain family, the right to remain in Scotland. Would Mr Lockhart agree that it's about time that his party gave the rest of the EU citizens who are resident in Scotland the same assurance that they can remain? Dean Lockhart We've said that that's going to be one of the priorities in our discussions with our European counterparts, and I welcome the news of your constituents. Thank you for that. There are challenges arising from Brexit, but when we talk to businesses, business tellers, there are challenges in business every day, and you know what they're getting on with it. It's now time for Mr Brown and his colleagues to follow the leadership shown by the Scottish business community and get on with the day job and take advantage of the opportunities that we have outlined in this chamber. In terms of policy response, what steps can the Scottish Government take to stimulate the economy? First of all, it is clear that it can do much, other than blame Westminster or Brexit. The Fraser or Valander Institute described the new powers coming to Hotherwood as fiscal devolution of a scale that is largely unprecedented internationally. Do something about it, you've got the powers. What can the Scottish Government do in the short term to use those powers? First of all, Mr Brown, you could listen to business for a change. For example, the letter sent to the Government from 13 leading business organisations earlier this month, before your programme for government was published, asking, demanding in fact for the large business supplement to be abolished. A tax that punishes businesses that want to expand and a tax that has forced the closure of many long-standing, otherwise successful businesses such as mackerees in your neighbouring constituency. In addition, my colleagues have listed a whole range of global opportunities and steps that can be taken. If the SNP does not want to listen to us, perhaps it can listen to the views of the various business leaders who have been setting out the opportunities. Most fundamentally, the SNP should listen to their own pro-independence business leaders and take off the table the prospect of another independence referendum. Instead of listening to business, however, the SNP last week set out in the programme for government a list of economic measures that amounted to nothing more than repackaged policy announcements and old money dressed up as new. The headline announcement of the new Scottish growth scheme has been, frankly, an omnishambles. It has caused confusion in the business community. Businesses are asking, how will this help be? Is it in the form of loans? Is it guarantees? How does the guarantee scheme work? Who will administer the scheme? What will be the criteria? Have the banks or the investment community even been consulted, let alone the UK Treasury? It is interesting that, in its programme for government, the SNP admits that, in order for this scheme to work appropriately, we will discuss in detail with business organisations, the Scottish Parliament and the UK Government. Perhaps going forward, Mr Brown, you can consider having proper consultation going forward on an important economic policy and listen to the views of business in advance of announcing policies that no one knows how they are going to work. Let me conclude by saying that the First Minister recently also said that we are facing a lost decade as a result of Brexit negotiations. You must conclude, Mr Lockhart. The people of Scotland know only too well what it feels like to suffer a lost decade, and that is a lost decade under this Scottish Government. The Conservative Party is nothing if not on message. Yesterday, Theresa May, in a briefing from Downing Street, let the telegraph understand that the problem with the Scottish Government is that it is allowing the ideology of independence to be more important than the economy. That is the message that we have heard from the Tories today. The reality of this debate is something different. The reality is that the Tory party allowed the ideology of Brexit to be more important than the economy. That is what we are now seeing. That is what Scotland potentially could suffer from, and our job is to make sure that that does not happen. During the course of this debate, I have to say that there were two people that I agreed with most—neither of whom are on my own benches—and I am sorry that I have to say that. Although, of course, I agreed with all our benches and particularly the wisdom of Tom Arthur, whom I thought made a particularly fine start to his speech. However, I do want to say that I thought that Patrick Harvie and Tavish Scott made very important points. Patrick Harvie is absolutely right to say that the Scottish Government will need to have clear positions based on clear principles. The Scottish Government will have to articulate them and be prepared to negotiate hard for them. Now, one of the two of those is already clear. The single market, based on the four freedoms, based on free movement—because we are all descended from migrants of one sort or another—based on free movement is vitally important. There is a very limited understanding in this chamber of what that means, because free movement is not negotiable. The talk that in some way could be negotiated away is nonsense, and we saw that from the Bratislava summit this weekend. Our policies will also require to be fact-based, and they will have to make sure that they give us good foundations for future success. The disappointment this afternoon was in the Tory refusal to be where they were immediately after the referendum, to take the positive view of ensuring that there was a Scottish approach that benefited Scotland, because the Tories have become born-again Brexiteers. The other contribution that I thought was important was Tavish Scott, not because he defined the purpose of these debates just to give me something to do in my afternoons, which is not true, but because he defined the purpose of the debate to encourage a positive approach and to give ideas. Then, unusually in this debate, he went on and gave some ideas. I do not agree with all the ideas that he gave, but I thought that it was very positive to do that. It was a change from some of the other rhetoric of the debate, particularly for Murdo Fraser's reasons to be cheerful. Murdo listed those reasons to be cheerful, but he sounded more to me like whistling in the wind. Murdo Fraser is never short of chutzpah. He wants the UK Government to be in the lead on absolutely everything, except when it is rudderless and drifting. Then it is the SNP's absolute responsibility to be in the lead on everything. That is an admirable approach. It is just very, very silly, I have to say. Of course. Murdo Fraser. I am most grateful to the minister for giving way. I wonder if he could answer the question that none of his colleagues could answer. Why does he think that it is the case that business confidence has recovered post-Brexite in every part of the United Kingdom, apart from in Scotland? What is it about Scotland uniquely that means that business confidence here has not recovered? I think that it is very important that we study that, but let me give you a suggestion. The suggestion might mean that Scottish business is wiser than business elsewhere. It realises that we have not had Brexit yet, and the worst is yet to come. It could be that. Let me turn to the Tory party, because we are sort of used now to the Tory party of being constitutional anoraks. That is what they do, but they are born again Brexiteers. Liam Kerr said in an interview in The Lawyer that, just after the referendum, we need to take stock of the referendum result. They certainly took stock, but they are now 100 per cent in favour of it. Success, according to the Russian proverb, has many parents. Failure is an orphan. It is difficult to find anyone on the benches who do not now believe that Brexit is not only the right thing to happen, but the Scottish Government should embrace it with such enthusiasm as if we were a favour of it all the time. Jumping on the bandwagon, however, is a dangerous thing to do. I hope that the Lib Dems are not jumping on the bandwagon, too. That would be a big disappointment having been so nice to Mr Scott. Jumping on the bandwagon is a dangerous thing to do. The bandwagon is careering downhill. It is not possible to steer it. It is knocking down all sorts of valuable things. The question is not how are the SNP going to get it under control. There are much better questions to ask. How can we, for example, together create an approach based on what is best for Scotland? How can we find the right option for Scotland? How can we ensure that, in those situations, we benefit business and we benefit Scotland and do not disadvantage it? Those are good questions, but we have not had the answer to them from the Tories today. We had a sort of answer. We had an answer from Edward Mountain, who told us in a sort of mystical way that we should all be given a lemon. Let me give him the classic economic theory of giving everyone a lemon. If you give everyone a lemon, there is a collapse in the price of lemonade and a penury for lemonade manufacturers. That is the reality if everybody has a lemon. What we need to do is to find a way that we can come together as a chamber and debate the ideas. That is why Mr Scott's contribution and Patrick Harvie's contribution were so important. There needs to be a contribution of ideas in this debate. Let's start with the idea of what the single market actually is. The Parliament voted for a motion last week, stating that the key objective must be for Scotland and the UK to remain inside the single market. There is a fundamental difference between membership of the single market and simply having access to it, in line with the terms of what would be called a free trade agreement. The latter outcome would risk what the First Minister has termed a lost decade, undoubtedly, and even more. Strangely enough, the single market as it presently exists and, of course, it needs reform, is a creation of the UK. Under the leadership of Jacques Delors, it was the UK commissioner who led work on the ambitious programme of 272 measures to break down the non-tariff barriers to the delivery of an integrated European market. By aiming for that free movement of goods and services, the single market is much more effective than a simple free trade area. That is particularly true in the case of services. The Scotch whiskey industry benefits, yes, but the Scottish financial sector even more, because a fundamental element of the single market is passporting. The right of a financial service firm incorporated in one member state to establish a branch or provide services remotely on a service basis in another member state, solely on the basis of their authorisation and supervision by the state of incorporation. That is a fundamental provision. You cannot have that without accepting the principle of free movement. I noted papers reporting at the weekend that the chancellor thought that that could be negotiated for the banking sector and for nobody else. Brexit means free movement for bankers but not for workers. That does not appear to be a sensible way to go ahead. I return, Presiding Officer, to where we started in this debate. There is a key set of issues that need to be discussed in the economy. Future debates are going to discuss issues in other sectors, rural economy, environment, education and justice. If we are going to do justice to that debate, members need to come to the chamber with the ideas that they can put forward. We all know what we think about each other politically. What we do not know is the way in which every sector in Scotland will be affected. We do not know the positive nature that we might take and the negatives as well. Until we have that discussion in that debate, then we will not be much further forward. We have decided, I have to say, despite no Labour speech being in any way complementary about the Scottish Government with the exception of David Stewart—I make an exception for him as ever—despite that, we have decided to accept the Labour amendment and would have accepted the Liberal Democratic amendment had it been called. Both those amendments are in the spirit of saying that we have to get the information together, we have to be positive, but we cannot disguise the difficulties ahead. Unfortunately, the Conservatives today want to disguise the difficulties ahead. Nobody—especially not the business sector—will thank them for that. Thank you, cabinet secretary. That concludes the debate on Scotland's economy. We now move to decision time. There are three questions to be put as a result of today's business, and I wish to remind members that, if the amendment to the name of murder phraser is successful, the amendment to the name of Richard Leonard falls. The first question is that the amendment in the name of murder phraser, which seeks to amend motion number 1531, the name of Keith Brown, on Scotland's economy, be agreed. Are we all agreed? We are not agreed. Parliament will move to a vote, and members may cast their votes now. The result of the vote on amendment 1531.1 in the name of murder phraser is as follows. Yes, 29. No, 88. There were no abstentions. The amendment is therefore not agreed. The next question is that amendment 1531.3 in the name of Richard Leonard, which seeks to amend motion in the name of Keith Brown, be agreed. Are we all agreed? We are not agreed. Parliament will move to a vote, and members may cast their votes now. The result of the vote on amendment 1531.3 is as follows. Yes, 87. No, 29. There were no abstentions. The amendment to the name of Richard Leonard is therefore agreed. The next question is that motion 1531 in the name of Keith Brown, as amended, be agreed. Are we all agreed? We are not agreed. Parliament will move to a vote, and members may cast their votes now. The result of the vote on motion 1531, in the name of Keith Brown, is as follows. Yes, 87. No, 29. There were no abstentions. The motion as amended is therefore agreed. That concludes the decision time. We move now to members' business. I will take a few minutes to change seats.

What do we know really? How certain are we of our reality? In our short lives, we experience very little of what the universe has to offer, yet we search for the answers. Our curiosity is the driving force that must have a collective conclusion, yet we are destined to remain on Earth. The great game of astronomical wonder, and it just so happens that it's our move. Wait to hear this. Our discovery of space is our documentation of phenomena happening in space as observed from our home vantage. Our reality is our planet, and we are not even scratching the surface of our reality, yet we are able to peer into the cosmic landscape as far as we can see into the vastness of space. Much closer to home however, a space hurricane, complete with electric rain, has been detected in Earth's upper atmosphere for the first time, with the requisite plasma and magnetic fields needed for such storms present in the atmospheres of planets across the universe, with the researchers suggesting that this should be commonplace in the Electric Universe. The hurricanes which we are most familiar with form an Earth's lower atmosphere over warm bodies of water. As the warm moisture rises, it creates a pocket of low pressure near the ocean's surface, which in turn, sucks in the surrounding air, generating strong winds and creating clouds that lead eventually to heavy rainfall, as a result the inward rushing air is deflected on a circular path forming the characteristic spiral shape of a tropical storm. Hurricanes have also been spotted in the lower atmospheres of other planets in the solar system, planet Mars, planet Jupiter and Saturn, while similar phenomena so called solar tornadoes have been spotted churning from the surface of the sun, however such swirling masses had never before been detected in the upper atmosphere of a planet until now. The space hurricane in question was recorded above the North Pole, some several hundred miles up into the ionosphere, detected back in August 2014 by four satellites in the US Defence Meteorological Satellite Programme, however it was only revealed in the data by recent retrospective analysis led by researchers from China's Shandong University, using three-dimensional magnetospheric modelling the team was able to create an image of the phenomena, a swirling 600 mile wide funnel composed not of air but plasma. It rotated around in an anticlockwise direction, it sported multiple spiral arms, it had a cam eye at its centre and it lasted for a duration of around eight hours before gradually breaking down. Mike Lockwood, space scientist at Reading University says that, until now it was uncertain that the space plasma hurricanes even existed so to prove this with such striking observations is absolutely incredible. Tropical storms are associated with huge amounts of energy and these space hurricanes must be created by unusually large and rapid transfer of solar wind energy and charged particles into the Earth's upper atmosphere. Based on their model, the team believes that this phenomena formed as the result of interactions between incoming solar wind and the Earth's magnetic field. The hurricane actually appeared during a period of low solar and geomagnetic activity with the interplanetary magnetic field pointing northward and this suggested overwhelmingly that hurricanes may be frequently occurring phenomena in the atmospheres of both Earth and other planets in the solar system. What makes this particular event so spectacular and notable was its longevity. The spiral arms structure that forms in the field align currents and aurora, the extremely large energy deposition at time of minimal geomagnetic activity and the low reconnection extending unusually far on the night side because of the unusual combination of interplanetary conditions. While the space hurricane would have had little tangible impact down on the Earth's surface, the electron precipitation from such storms in the ionosphere does have the potential to disrupt communications. GPS satellites and radar operations as well as potentially altering the orbital patterns of space debris at low orbital altitudes. This, the research has concluded, highlights the importance of continued and improved monitoring of space wearer and our electrically charged universe.

وضكرة حسنين خريمين سنة سلامان 것 بها الله رسول الله على قوية ذاتك وهناك في بعض الضغطين بأنهم يأتون معه اشخاص! أنهم لا يجب أن يقوموا بعمل مجلسة مجلسة من الإسلام لأن الإيمان ذايع وضعه لذلك يجب أن يساعد الناس لأنهم ينظرون الإيمان ويجب أن ينظرون نظرياتهم ويجب أن يكون لهم خودة للمساعدة لذا يجب أن يتبعون ذلك لكن one aspect is very dangerous is that to save themselves from what they are doing they are invited here to participate in their 10 جرسة في المسجد so in those gatherings such people are invited so those who are invited they do not know whether they are being invited or they are being invited and in the case of Calabarra there are many lies those who do not have anything they are often told and those things which are told in their gatherings or they are told in a way without patience or without any doubt or or by mentioning these people they are being invited by the prophets they are being invited by some ignorant, uneducated and to be punished just by their looks that people are happy so they also start to be like those gatherings maybe they are just a part of the society but everything else starts to be the same so on this basis i.e. in the people of Sunnah in the community wherever wherever there are one day or a whole month or 10 days or a whole year which is the love of the prophet love of the prophet love of the prophet love of the prophet the most important thing that is they always do something which is proved according to the society i.e. they do not talk in any way i.e. they have been in such ahadim that all their knowledge have been heard والشيء يجب عليهم

Pretty Yende on overcoming her self doubt

Pretty Yende on overcoming her self-doubt.
When Pretty Yende made her debut at New York's prestigious Metropolitan Opera six years ago she had to quickly overcome her feelings of self-doubt to claim her throne.
Over the past six years Pretty has become a force to be reckoned on stages across the world and has also scooped several awards in this time.
Last Thursday marked six years to the day Pretty made her debut and she took a trip down memory lane.
"17 January 2013...it’s a memory that truly defined many that have followed ever since. Grateful beyond words for all the opportunities and challenges that continues to contribute in giving life to the #prettyjourney."

Pretty Yend on overcoming her self-doubt When Pretty Yend made her debut at New York's prestigious Metropolitan Opera six years ago she had to quickly overcome her feelings of self-doubt to claim her throne. Over the past six years Pretty has become a force to be reckoned on stages across the world and has also scooped several awards in this time. Last Thursday marked six years to the day Pretty made her debut and she took a trip down memory lane. January 17, 2013, it's a memory that truly defined many that have followed ever since. Grateful beyond words for all the opportunities and challenges that continues to contribute in giving life to the hashtag Pretty Journey. Pretty reflected on a post she shared on the night of her debut, explaining that when she was put on stage at the last minute as a replacement, she felt like she didn't belong. To add to the feelings of self-doubt she fell on stage even before she started singing. I fell, literally, on my knees, that night without having sung even one note, I fell forward, picked myself up and sang my heart out. Why I fell? How? I don't know all I remember was the feeling of not belonging as I was a replacement. A last-minute, unknown young South African singer and not the star they, the audience, had booked for months to see. Pretty said she had to quickly get those thoughts out of her head and once she started singing they vanished into thin air. Fast forward to 2019 and Pretty is currently preparing for her Paris debut. I can never find more appropriate word to express how privileged and grateful I am to music. It continues to pick me up every time and I get the honor of sharing it with the world.

Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Tony Rosa. USS Constitution departed Boston Harbor for her final underway of the year, October 17th. More than 600 guests were aboard Old Ironsides for the historic event. Constitution is scheduled to enter dry dock in March 2015 for a three-year planned restoration period. It's a period in the ship's life where we take the time to do right by the ship and while that might mean that visitors don't get the same experience they can have today for that period of time she's in the dry dock, it allows us to do those restoration repairs and to do the work that needs to be done so that we do preserve Constitution for generations and generations to come. USS Constitution will celebrate her 217th birthday on October 21st. She is the world's oldest commission warship afloat. Visit All Hands Magazine online for more information on Old Ironsides and her crew.

Happy Saturday! I am just leaving work in my weird outfit and there is quite a bit of things that I need to do. It is one o'clock. I've got some shoes in the back that are not mine. I've been sent on a mission from my co-worker from my main office. I'm in the Dine Office right now so I'm like really close to Maple Grove, like closer than normal. So I'm gonna go exchange these shoes for my co-worker. I'm gonna go to Home Goods because Home Goods is right next door to DSW where I need to exchange the shoes and then I'm gonna go to Trader Joe's as well. So me and my nice pimple right here, he like gets like that so freaking gross, are gonna go on an adventure. So Emily and the Pimple were going on the adventures today. So I was at DSW. Now I'm going there. So I found this thing. I'm normally like not into color but look how cute that wreath is. It's like like paper or something. It's only 20 bucks. I don't know. I don't know if I should get this. It's cute though right? Okay so I finally found a quiet corner. I'm gonna get this thing. It's a big framed, that's not even a print. It's like a magnetic board. Like those are magnets right here. Weird. I found some neutral holiday towels for the bathroom downstairs. I hope that'd be cute. These are like little T or like tip towels and just regular ones. And then I found this thing but I figured I put like blankets and pillows in this and I love the rope detail. It's like obviously like faux leather and then it's got like little grommet, not grommet. What are they called? Silver things. Studs. So it was $59 and now it's $39. I think that's kind of a good deal. And this thing is huge. It's hard to see. Like it doesn't even fit in the cart. Like I'm sitting on top of my purse. By the way my purse is like the same color so pretty sure I like the same colored things. Got problems. So that's what I'm gonna get at the home goods. Okay y'all. So I got my basket which I'm super excited about and my zit is excited about it too. But I'm going into Trader Joe's. Can't really see it very well. And I'm hungry. So it's like the worst thing. I'm probably gonna buy like $200 worth of groceries like for realsies. Anyway okay oh someone's parking in front of me fuck. Okay all right bye. Okay so I'm back. Trader Joe's wasn't that bad. A lot of people like there's a reason why I go grocery shopping on like Tuesday evenings because oh gives me like major anxiety like just there's too many people and I just can't handle it. So anywhere. I got three bags of this. The mandarin orange chicken because it's freaking delicious. And then I got some caramel popcorn. Remember I got this last time I was here which was like several months ago and it was really good. So I'm gonna get it again. And then I got these pumpkin seed things for my co-worker. The same one that's you know about the shoes. Hold on. I just need to get my bag. And then I got these. These are my favorite crackers. I got quite a few of those. And then all the way on the bottom. This is also for my co-worker. This apple cranberry tart thing. I don't know. It's apples and cranberries and warm spices nestled in a flaky pastry That's that. So I'm gonna finally get going home. So yeah I'm gonna finally go home and do home things. But it's very exciting that I'm like out in the world. I never take you guys out in the world anymore. I need to work on that. So it is currently like three o'clock or something. I still haven't eaten anything yet today. Yeah I was gross and I had a coke earlier that spin it. So yeah I so I need to eat something. But I think I don't know. I think I might just wait till I get home. But then I'm like gonna eat all the things. But maybe that's just what I should do. Well hello hello and welcome to Monday. So let's talk about Sunday. Okay whoa that was intense. All right so I filmed on Sunday and it was like a one-take kind of a deal. Guess who forgot to hit record. So I'm a dumb dumb. Apologize. And I also didn't even say goodbye on Saturday. Like what is up with me? I'm having all the vlogging issues. So anyway it is Monday. It is 6 p.m. if you can see that there. Maybe you can see it. I don't know. It's kind of far away. So I am now gonna unload the dishwasher and do some things. But I figured I would actually answer a couple of questions because I've been getting some interesting questions on the Instagram. And yeah so I think the question I really wanted to answer is someone, oh goodness gracious, um sorry I'm like looking at a picture of a text message. So someone had asked me if I was still planning like I normally had been like setting up my week. The answer is kind of no. I do kind of set up my week like a week or two ahead of time. And then I've been filling in like as I go. So some of it has to be done after the fact just because I don't really know what's going on on any certain day. But I'm spending like dedicating like you know anywhere from five to however long minutes every day to the planner. And just kind of figuring out what happened that day. And then also if there's anything new I need to put in the calendar. Like I made an appointment for I have actually two appointments in November that I need to put in my calendar. So I think I'm gonna do that tonight. But yeah so it's just kind of like I'm just doing it as I go and I've been really really enjoying it. I know I've said this like a million times on Instagram, not on Instagram, on YouTube on these vlogs. But I have been posting a lot more on Instagram and Facebook. And the links are always below if you guys want to watch or not watch but you know follow me there. But I've been really enjoying a lot of the stickers that I have and have had for quite a while. And I'm discovering like new shops too. So it's been kind of fun to not mention just like my staple like three or four shops. And that's it because that's kind of what I had been doing. Because those are kind of like my go-to standards. But there's lots of other great shops out there and I'm excited that I can actually use some of my stickers that I've purchased or that have been given to me or I've gotten in giveaways and racks and things like that. So anyway, but yes, I have been really enjoying that. So yes, to answer your question, yes ish. Yeah, whatever. It seems like you guys are enjoying the planner spreads a lot more on Instagram because I'm kind of reading out, reading along with your comments saying that you're enjoying that and way more interesting than my boring ass plan with me is which I agree my plan with me is we're really boring. And no, I don't know what my plan with me is are gonna look like moving forward. Or if I'm even gonna do plan with me videos, I will do planner related videos. Don't get me wrong. I don't know. I haven't made any decisions yet, but I have some things kind of bouncing around in my weird little brain of mine. So, but anyway, I am going to get started on emptying this dishwasher and making a little bit of dinner for myself. And then I'm gonna maybe jam on the plan for a little bit. And yeah, that's what's happening. So I'm kind of excited to have nothing to do tonight. It's so exciting not doing anything, you guys. It's so nice. It's just so nice to like clear the mind. I have a few emails I need to send to my old employer's email in like a few minutes. I figured I would do that while I was just, you know, warming up stuff or having stuff in the oven or whatever. I don't even know what I'm gonna make yet. So yeah, I'm gonna send some emails and get to make a trim dinner. So I'll check in with you guys in a little bit. Yo, yo, yo, it is many hours later and it's time to go to sleep. Like very soonish, but I need to give the dog some more water. I don't like him drinking water right before bed, but he won't because he's upstairs sleeping. I just noticed I was not doing the right thing and being a bad dog mom and I realized probably it just looked like I pissed myself, but I didn't. I swear. I did the Brita. I don't like to pee on camera, you guys. I'm a little camera, okay? But yeah, so that is what's happening y'all. And yeah, I've got to open some of my mail. I like have most of my things filling up more water. Don't worry, I'm not pissing. I'm not pissing y'all. I have like a ton of my bills and stuff on like auto. So I already like know what everything is every single month for the most part, but I don't like open all my mail because I don't care too. I just open it and then stack it on a pile because yeah. The Emily you think is super organized. I still haven't figured out like a good organizational system for all of my like paper bills and stuff. I don't really want to keep them, but then I feel like I should keep them because if there's ever like an emergency or something, I don't know what of that emergency would be, but like I would have to like know my account number or something, but you know most of the time they just ask you your information. You give it to them and then magically things happen. So I don't know. Long story long, I just happened figured out a good filing system. So I'll get to that at some point in my life, but yes. I did a little bit of planning, which I won't show you yet because there's other like things, whoa. There's a lot of things happening in the next couple of weeks that I would rather keep private until they actually happen because you know gotta keep the suspense going guys. Yeah okay I'm gonna leave my water bottle out, but I need to go and see the dog because we need to do a Doyle challenge. Where's the doggie? Where's the doggie? Oh by the way, I put these like big-ass gourd pumpkin things up here a while ago. I think I kind of like it. Got him at Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Home Goods. Somewhere. Somewhere like that. I don't know. Somewhere along in my adventure travels. Uh-oh. He's not in here, which only means he's in the creepiest room ever. Joy all. He's so creepy when he's in here and it's like pitch black. Hold on, let me turn you around. What's up Doyle? Here, let's first scale. This is what it looks like when you walk in here. Just a lump. Hey bud, what's going on? He loves that this comforter is up here and I have not put anything on it. He just wants to be all lumpy in it. Yes you do buddy. Yes you do. Oh my goodness sir. Oh my goodness sir. So what's new Doyle? Your friends have been missing you. Yeah, yeah they've been missing you and your weird paws. Yeah I know right? Um so anyway Doyle and I are gonna go for the evening but thank you guys so much for watching Monday's Vlogtober. He clearly needs to get more comfortable with life, like for realsies. Anyway, hey Doyle you want to go outside? You want to go on a walk? Do you want to go outside? You want to go on a walk buddy? Oh somebody wants to go on his walk. You know why? Because he gets cheese when he goes on his walk. Get off of me sir sir sir. He's so uncomfortable sometimes. He just like digs his pokey little paw like into my leg. It's very, you're hurting your mother. It's like he doesn't care. He doesn't even care. Do you care? That's a no. Alright so anyway we are going to jet. Thank you guys so much for hanging out and I will see you guys and Doyle will also see you guys in the next vlog. Margarge. You can say goodbye. That's a no. So it is Tuesday. We are on a walk and the sunset looks kind of cool. I mean unfortunately, oh it's probably gonna be all wind blown. Darn it. Isn't that a pretty sunset today? So cute. Oh and welcome to vlogtober. It is Tuesday. I already said hello kind of because it was outside. Hopefully some of that footage came out because it is super windy like Fargo windy out today and I don't have like a little fluffy thing on my mic so I don't know if it came out. But if it didn't come out with the audio I probably laid some music over it. So anyway yeah so I am home a little later seven o'clock and just got in from outside. My ears are like bright red because it's cold and went to a tar day and I needed some like Doyle dog stuff so if we're gonna show you what I got. I got him some allergy pills. He takes two of these a day. These are all vet recommended things so don't worry down in the comments if you've got comments about it. His vet recommends these things. And then he actually takes a fish oil tablet just one of these a day and the reason he takes the allergies is because he licks. Well he's a liquor. He's a liquor and then I actually just got rid of my one can of pumpkin that I had. It like helps Doyle's tummy if he's like throwing up or like has an uneasy stomach but I needed to get another can of pumpkin because that one is like expiring soon. I actually donated it to like a food shelf. It's donating or it's not donating. It's expiring in a couple of months but I figured I would just get a new one because this is canned pumpkin season so I just got the Market Pantry one and this is good till 2020. So yeah so I have this and that's what's going on so far. I need to eat a little bit of dinner and I am going to do that in just a moment but before I do that it's time to water the plant so let's do this thing. I like for my mother to have on record that I am actually watering her damn plant that I don't like but it's here so I'm watering it. Look at all the water. I still don't like plants. I'm gonna keep saying that for the entire vlog. I just PS there's like a plant at work that I'm gonna have to start to take care of after the gal that's going on maternity leave like goes and has her baby. Not looking forward to that either. But anyway I turn this light on too because it's like pitch black outside now. Ooh that looks funny. So yeah but that is a ooh someone's texting me almost super popular but yeah I am gonna run and eat something. I'm not running I'm running to like the fridge or whatever. I don't know what I'm gonna eat yet but yeah so I will check in with you guys in a little bit and I think I'm gonna jam on the planner kind of like last night and just hang out because why not you know it's good to hang out plus I'm really really cold like my face is like super cold so time to warm up the chikers. Hello today is a weird vlog because it is Wednesday and it's evening time. I still have a little bit of makeup on but I figured I get a lot of questions about like I don't know what I do for my skincare which I haven't been doing a lot for my skincare I mean recently recently I've actually been doing more I should say because I went to Sephora so last week and got a bunch of stuff and I just like need to get more into my skincare so I know this is kind of weird but I'm like putting my hair up in like this weird like big old ponytail loop thing I don't know just like makes my life feel better but I figured I would kind of show you just what I use. I'm gonna do something kind of fun. I'm gonna use one of my masks. This is what I take my initial makeup off with which is the up and up refreshing cleansing toilets. I've tried many versions of that and the Target brand I feel like works the best so yeah I just preliminary take my makeup off and to be completely honest like I just do this for sure every night but I don't always use my like clear Sonic which I wish I would use it more I'm gonna use it tonight but I don't know like something about like the end of the day and just not caring I don't know so yeah and my face is always like really red when I touch it so it gets really really red and I kind of jam on it too which is probably like not the best thing for it but whatever yeah so just remove the makeup and then I'll use my Clarisonic in a minute but I want to show you guys the mask thing I got totally not sponsored by the way like I get comments like that all the time not sponsored by anybody I promise but this was a recommendation from my friend Kayla that actually works at Sephora and it's all there like masks so I got a face mask an eye mask hand mask foot mask lip mask and hair mask well I think I might do the eye mask tonight because my eyeballs are like kind of puffy so let's bust this baby open because I'm excited let's see oh my gosh they're like adhesive you see that it's like adhesive on the back of all of these okay well I'm gonna put the rest of these back in here because the adhesive is gonna get stuck on everything that's like those little glue dot things all right now everything's back there minus the eyeball mask so I'm gonna put this in my little closet over here and don't judge me this closet is not organized at all I'll just like slip it in you can't like really see what's going on in there a new cleanser but to be honest I haven't used it yet and I'm just gonna try to use up this it's my set of fill cleanser I get the normal to oily skin and I really really like it especially with the Clarisonic love this thing this is my Clarisonic Mia 3 which is amazing so I'm gonna wash my face and then I'll be right back all right officially wash my face oh and uh this lighting is like super harsh in here but whatever it's a bathroom so yeah so wash my face with the Clarisonic I don't know why I don't just like take the five minutes to actually wash my face with the Clarisonic it's like super satisfying by the way but yeah I don't know I feel like oh it takes too much time like I want to go to bed but I'm sure some of you out there can relate to that but okay so let's read the directions on the eye mask of if I can like moisturize before or put this on and then moisturize after I'm not really I'm not too sure it says remove the let's see here it doesn't say well it doesn't say but I'm just gonna go with because it tells me to remove the protective film from both of the white fiber patches which I'll put on my put underneath my eyes and then it says position the patches underneath the eye area as shown as the diagram which is right here and then it says leave them on for 15 minutes then remove them gently and then massage any excess product in the skin so actually you know I'm gonna do first I'm gonna tone first and then I'll use this this have obviously some moisturizer or something in it and then I'll put moisturizer on my face afterwards so right behind you guys is this is my body shop tea tree stuff I'm like almost out I need to get more of this just haven't yet like all the things are behind you guys and update there's my zit it's like irritating is like 36 year old like am I done with the breakouts like seriously I mean I should be thankful like I don't really like get bad stuff and like I've got like this little spot right here it's hard to see in this light looks like this the camera is like so blown out but I don't know I guess I shouldn't complain but it's like I thought I was over like all that middle school high school acne in like I thought it was over it but apparently I'm not so yeah and I don't use eye makeup remover because I just wear a little bit of mascara but this seems to get rid of any of the excess junk so yeah okay now I may I make up wow no I mask and it's the rose I mask if you guys are interested whoa oh it's like like super moisturized on my hand already whoa already then it's like really goopy so it says to remove the back I don't think there's a back this right but how do I do it look like no it doesn't go like that oh I should look at the diagram oh how is there a peely thing oh they're both on this one okay so this one's like super stiff and this one's like all like loosey go see this one they both peel off oh I see okay it does like look like a Nike swoosh okay so you're supposed to look like this and then like that oh god this feels so weird all right oh I see he's supposed to get like you're like little crow's feet and stuff so I look amazing oh god don't look down cuz it's gonna get you all right and what I say 15 minutes so whoa my Nike swoosh all right use my mirror here you know what I kind of like about this is I don't feel like if I like you know move my head around that it's not like fall off my face I've had other like sheet masks and stuff before you like literally have to lay down like you know the 15 minutes or whatever it is so cool well I'm excited about laws and I'm not gonna keep you guys for 15 minutes cuz it's like crazy town but I will put on after this is like over I will put this on this is my tea tree blemish fade night lotion and I get this from the body shop as well it's the same line as this guy and then after that so I like go between two different moisturizers but I think well I'll show you the moisturizers I usually use this is a L'Oreal age perfect night cream and then once in a while as a little luxury I use this this is the cares wild rose salvage I don't know what it says it's just this cares wild rose oh advanced brightening sleeping facial smells amazing I think I'm gonna put this on tonight cuz it's kind of rose scent too and then if you guys watched my Sephora haul which I did in the last vlog that was posted currently like while I'm filming this cuz I think there's gonna be a vlog or two they'll go up before this one I'm not really sure I got another evening like moisturizer and that one is I think tea tree scented as well but I haven't tried that one yet but I'm going to probably try that this weekend so anyway this is gonna be it for the vlog today because I feel like I've talked a little too much oh look look we can see my zit like so much better and my weird little thing that I was talking about like it just like popped up and I'm like what is this thing and like

Na hirig na amo ko ang ganig nila di Balcón, Balcón, Maninasalón. At pag-decembra 4, it really hit us. A tragedy, a tragedy for us. It's too strong. We dropped on the floor to protect ourselves. Anywhere as you look around, you can't see anything that is growing. Everything was lost. Our farms, our livelihood, everything. So this is the Rome of Grade 2, Section 1. Before the typhoon, this was already used by the high evacuees from Baibai and from San Antonio. And these are the people from Baibai until now. They did not go back to their barang guys because they have no unsheltered. So we were all devastated. And what we just did is I'm helping her. The ICRC and the Philippine Red Cross are working together to help the people affected by typhoon. We've distributed to thousands of people with relief items and tarpulins in order for them to at least start to get their lives a little bit better now. In many places, the water system has been damaged. That's why the Red Cross is now providing drinking water like purifying it and transporting it to strategic places. So the health facilities are into damage by the typhoon. That's why the Red Cross also starts to repair damage rural health units' facilities. And at the same time, the Red Cross is providing medical care. I've been working for two weeks now in the field, but I feel like the spirit is still high to make a difference. Because for me, I still have so much work to do and seeing people smile when we visit them despite the situation that they are in right now, you can see that people are hopeful and very curious. But in their eyes, we can see that they really need help.

we have a lot of friends from around the world or with us in Spain and Mexico all over the place. So welcome. My name is Peter and I'm going to be the host today. If you're joining us new I can just let you know how the day is going to flow. So we're going to start with a movie with David and then afterwards we'll have a 10 minute break. Then we'll have some breakout rooms where you can share your experiences with the movie or anything that came up for you. And then we'll have a 45 minute break and then there'll be a closing session with me. And so I'm going to pass it over to you now David. Okay thank you Pete. Welcome everyone. So grateful to have you all here. I just love coming on the gallery view and seeing all your smiling faces. Yeah we've got Piles of Group. We've got our Tabula Rasa Mystery School there all piled in. The Miracles Monastery. I see a whole gang down there. Andrea, Marci, Neda, Angie, Wesley all piled in there. And we've got people from around the world. It looks like, Toa, is that how you pronounce your name from Finland? Yeah from Finland's joining us today. We have another new friend from the United States joining in. So we are thrilled to all be coming together for the same purpose and that's just to open our hearts up, to feel the love, to feel the joy and feel the connection that we all share and that we share with God. And so after like I mentioned last week, after three pretty heavy movies, Violet and Needle and Time Stack and then last week, the week before, Mary Magdalene. It is pretty pretty dramatic and pretty heavy. So Jesus has come in now again today with a comedy. Jesus will never go too long with heavy movies. He will bring in comedies and relationship movies. And last week, we were treated, Bill Murray at his best. We were all laughing our way back into the kingdom of heaven. And today, again, Jesus says, oh yes, we're rolling on with the comedies again today. This is not only a comedy, but it's a relationship movie. We love love stories. We love to wake up to heaven with love stories. Our hearts swirl when we experience love stories, especially those that start off with some grievances and start off with friction and start off with difficulties. You know, for those of you who fall, of course, Angie and Wesley are with us and they know how that goes. It's you got to work through the darkness to come to the light. You got to go through the shadows to come into the love. And these two today in this movie, the movie is titled Just Like Heaven. It's Dreamworks. So this is anything that's Dreamworks has Steven Spielberg behind it. So I think every Dreamworks movie I've ever seen in my entire life is just amazingly done with amazingly, amazing stories and and a script, a plot, great acting, great special effects, great everything. So you're going to see a treat because this is Steven Spielberg at work with a very good movie today. So every week, we just put out our movie poll and we ask you to vote on the themes that you feel are most important in your life because we like to keep the movies very relevant and very practical to where you're at, what you're going through. So this week, we have the top three vote getters we're committing to God's will, which is perfect happiness. That was the top vote getter. And when people think about God's will, you know, most of us have been raised with hearing a lot of things about God's will. And most of them relate to specific things in the world. That's why there's so much reaction to religion, so much reaction to theology, so much reaction to our parents and to our cultures, because nobody seems to be able to agree on planet Earth what God's will is. I mean, I've even heard people say when one country invades another country, some people say that's God's will. And I'm like, that doesn't really resonate. I've heard some strange things attributed to God's will. But in A Course in Miracles, Jesus says God's will for you is perfect happiness. He doesn't say kind of happy. He doesn't say predominantly happy. He says perfect happiness. But if you read the fine print in A Course in Miracles, Jesus also says that a child of God is only happy in his natural environment. And he goes on to say that our natural environment is heaven. So this perfect happiness God's will is the state of heaven. It's the state of being one with God and one with everyone and everything. And it's pure light and pure love. It's very abstract. It's what creation is. Creation doesn't have anything to do with form or planets. Nothing to do with stars. Nothing to do with quasars or black holes. No light is abstract. And so perfect happiness is our natural environment. And the implication is while we perceive ourselves on planet Earth, we do not experience perfect happiness because perception itself is a veil to cover over the light of who we are. So perception by definition is a block to the awareness of the light. That's right. Even the flowers and the pretty colors and the birds and the bees and all the things in the world that we judge as beautiful and the things that we judge as ugly are all part of a fragmented perception that was made by the ego. It was invented by the ego to block the light, to veil the truth. So it's important to remember when the number one vote-getter is committing to God's will. But we have to remember that God's will is for perfect happiness. God is not taking sides. God is not believing there's some outcomes and perception that are better than others. He's basically saying until you forgive the world and see the world with the Holy Spirit's perception or with Jesus' perception, then it's best to just conclude that you don't know anything and you're willing to be shown. That's the best way to wake up every day. Your eyes open in the morning in bed, you look at the ceiling, you go, I'm clueless. Show me. I need help. Show me. I need to see beyond what I'm perceiving right now. And God will answer. The second theme was relying only on the miracle for solutions. So that means that instead of relying on past learning, instead of relying on past problem-solving formulas on all kinds of tricks and different kind of methodologies, Jesus is saying that only the miracle, looking for miracle solutions is the way that you will become miracle-minded, consistently miracle-minded, consistently right-minded, and then finally you will go beyond right-minded and wrong-minded. You will transcend and merge with the light, which is where the happiness is. But the goal is to become more consistently miracle-minded as you approach the light. That's how you approach the light. If you don't have lots of miracles in your life, I mean daily miracles, consistent miracles, then you will be too fearful of the light. You will perceive the light as threatening. But when you follow the spirit and you open up to miracles and you have a very consistent experience of miracles in your life, then that means your resistance to the light is going down. And you're about ready to say, okay, God, I was completely wrong. Show me the truth. And then the truth sets everyone free. But you have to ask for it. You have to pray for it. Okay, the third one is with 62 votes is give up striving for perfection in form. That's where we have in psychology. I see Hermes with us. We have psychotherapists here. We have all kinds of beautiful beings joining us today. But in psychotherapy, we might call this perfectionism when somebody comes and they have to have everything just perfect in form. And they believe that they need that to be in control or be happy or be peaceful. It's a very difficult lesson because there is no such thing as a perfect form. You might say the best form would be forgiveness would just be seeing the falsity of form. In the beyond idol section of the text, Jesus says one sentence, he says God knows not form. Wow. That's a pretty powerful sentence because that fits in with the entire metaphysics of a course and miracles. And I know a lot of times people say, well, I need to be, I need these metaphysics to be really strong in my mind. For example, if some of you know, there's like, there's about five versions of a course and miracles that are floating around. And we used to be able to sit around in the early days and just read from the same text. We'd say page 42 and everybody would turn to 42. Nowadays, you say turn to 42 and you don't know what you're going to get. If the group has five different versions of course and miracles, we don't even know what's on page 42. But to give you an example, there was an original version of a course and miracles and it's basically has a line in it that I use as an example sometime. And here's an example of a text of one version of the course and miracles that contradicts the teachings of the entire course and miracles. So anybody who says all the, all the versions are the same, listen up, I'll give you a little clue here. There's a little line in the original version of a course and miracles that says God created time as a learning device. Well, the problem with that line in that book, which is called a course and miracles there, Ertex, is that God did not create time. The Holy Spirit can reinterpret time and use time as a learning device to bring you home, to wake you up. But God is pure spirit and God creates only in pure spirit and time is not pure spirit. So here's an example of a distortion of the teachings of the metaphysics of a course and miracles. Also in the same book, it's got, it starts to talk about sexuality. And this is why these parts were edited out of the course and miracles by Ken Wapnick and Helen, because, because once you get into sexuality, they kind of, it makes a distinction between procreation, being a better form of sexuality than homosexuality, which of course many Christians would say, of course, that's the truth. But you have to remember Jesus is teaching that form is unreal and there's no hierarchy of illusions. So there's not a better form of sexuality or a worse form of sexuality. This is a clear example from the Ertex of things that were taken out by Jesus and Helen and Ken and for people who are trying to promote ideas. And then they're wondering, they're saying, you know, this stuff in the Ertex is very confusing. Well, yeah, that's a pretty good conclusion because it doesn't really fit with the metaphysics of, of simply seeing the false is false and starting to realize that there aren't any better or worse forms that anything Jesus says that brings you toward eternity, even reincarnation, he says in the course, in the manual for teachers, he says, if it, if it helps strengthen your awareness of, of eternity, then that it can be helpful. It can be a step in the right direction. So those are the three themes we're going to focus on today, committing to God's will, perfect happiness, number one, number two, relying only on the miracle for solutions and three, giving up striving for perfection in form. Now, that's the thing that came to me today for some of you, some of you are doing the Course in Miracles workbook lessons and you started on January 1st, or maybe you have an app like the ACIM Remind app and it's, it's basically today, which is the 12th of March is workbook lesson number 71. And I was, I was looking at workbook lesson 71 today and Jesus was just saying, don't you see, David, how perfectly this lesson today dovetails with the movie. And I'm like, tell me, tell me more. And he's saying, well, basically the lesson for today is that only God's plan for salvation will work. And why is that important is because if we're going to know God's will, which is perfect happiness, then we have to follow God's plan for salvation and not the ego's plan for salvation. You see, that's the difference. There's two different plans for salvation. One is based on seek and do not find and that is the ego's plan. And the other you may recognize from the Bible 2000 years ago, seek and you shall find knock and the door shall be opened. Jesus was referring to the Holy Spirit's plan of salvation. So before I start talking about the movie and the characters and giving you a beautiful setup for the movie today, which is going to be absolutely spectacular, I would like to go into just a little bit of workbook lesson 71, our lesson for today. And I want to explain how this relates to the movie and to our, our goal of experiencing God's will of perfect happiness. First of all, that we have to forgive in order to experience love. It's pretty obvious that when we're judging, we're not loving. It's obvious when we're holding opinions, we're not loving. When we're criticizing, we're not loving. When we're comparing, we're not loving. When we're holding grievances, we are not loving. That basically if I had to put one word to the ego, it is, it is to get something from this world to find happiness. And forgiveness is to give from your heart, give the perspective, the beautiful perspective of non-judgment. Extend that through your mind to the whole universe, and then you feel the peace and the joy and happiness that comes from non-judgment. That's one of the short teachings from the Sermon on the Mount, Judge Not. So I'm just going to read to you a little bit of today's lesson and then I'll apply it to our movie today. And Jesus teaches us in lesson 71, only God's plan for salvation will work. You may not realize that the ego has set up a plan for salvation in opposition to God's. It is this plan in which you believe, since it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in place of the ego is to be damned. This sounds preposterous, of course. All of us are like, wait a minute, I am not trying to damn myself. And Jesus is like, well, stay with me, we'll see if you agree with this after you follow my logic. Basically, he says this sounds preposterous, of course, yet after we have considered just what the ego's plan is, perhaps you will realize that however preposterous it may be, you do believe in it. So he's giving us a little bit of a warm up saying that what we believe as being a separate being and perceiving separate beings in a fragmented perception, it's a preposterous perception. But you take it for granted, you take it to be reality, you don't take it to be preposterous. And what he's trying to show us is that what we have believed in from our past learning and our beliefs is preposterous. That's why we get upset is because we have a preposterous belief system and a preposterous perception that comes from that preposterous belief system. You follow my logic here. The ego's plan for salvation centers around holding grievances. We all can nod with that. And Irma, back me up on this psychotherapy, backs me up on this holding grievances, is not good for your mental health. It's not good for your sanity. It maintains that if someone else spoke or acted differently, if some external circumstance or event were changed, you would be saved. Thus, the source of salvation is constantly perceived as outside yourself. Each grievance you hold is a declaration and an assertion in which you believe that says, if this were different, I would be saved. You could say, if this were different, I would be happy. If this person acted differently, talked to me differently, had a different tone of voice, said different things, believed in a different outcome, I would be happy. I would be saved. The change of mind necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything except yourself. The role assigned to your own mind in this plan then is simply to determine what, other than itself, must change if you are to be saved. Does this sound familiar? This is the human condition. What other than my own mind must change for me to be happy. And you can see that this is part of seeking outside yourself and it's a bad habit because it never succeeds in bringing happiness. We call it the blame game, pointing the fingers, justifying and using the world to stay miserable while claiming that there's certain things in the world if they occurred would make us happy. It's quite a trick. So the change of mind necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything except yourself. The role assigned to your own mind in this plan then is simply to determine what, other than itself, must change if you are to be saved. According to this insane plan, any perceived source of salvation is acceptable provided that it will not work. This sounds funny when you read it, but basically Jesus is saying, as long as you keep looking to form to find the happiness, you are in a situation where not work. If you look in your mind, you'll find it. If you look in the world of projected form, you will not find it. This ensures that the fruitless search will continue for the illusion persists that although this hope has always failed, there is still grounds for hope in other places and in other things. Another person will yet serve better, another situation will yet offer success. Such is the ego's plan for your salvation. And this is based on the ego's doctrine of seek and do not find. I've talked about the country songs, looking for love in all the wrong places, looking for love in too many faces. That is a country version of workbook lesson 71. Always looking for something informed to save you, to make you happy, or something informed that will offer you something. And yet, the mind is always upset when this game falls apart. The only reason you would even play this game is called magic, which is that sometimes you actually think you see witnesses and results of your plan for searching outside. When you think something happened in form that is so wonderful and ordained by God, that finally an external has been given to you by God, that you have been praying for and wishing for your entire life. And it's a trick because salvation, happiness, peace is found within. We know that from prayer. We know that from meditation. We know that from Jesus, who wanted nothing from the world and was at peace. So in this movie, as I said, it's a love story. It's a forgiveness story. But our main two characters in Just Like Heaven are David and Elizabeth. David, he is a man who is a landscape architect who basically is heartbroken. We soon discover he's heartbroken because of the loss of his wife. He is grief stricken. He often drinks. He drinks a lot of beers to cover over his grief and his loss. And so emotionally, he is hurting. And we discover more about how deep this hurt is as the movie progresses. And then we have Elizabeth, who is a doctor. She's very self-sufficient. She's basically, she works so much that she would fit the category of workaholic. She'll work for one, two, maybe three shifts in a row without taking a break without going home, working for 20 some hours in a row without sleeping, or maybe taking a little catnap in the area where they have some snacks so she can get a few winks and then jump right back in. So basically, Elizabeth is very career-driven. She is so focused on her work of being a doctor that she doesn't have room for a relationship in her life. She doesn't have room for dating. She basically spends a lot of time in her apartment in San Francisco and that's her life. What is this showing us about the self-concept? Well, even though David was a successful landscape architect, it shows that if you're looking for love and for fulfillment and happiness in something external, even something as simple as a partnership that if that partner dies and you experience heavy grief almost like you can't hardly go forward in life, you're just trying to survive. In his case, he's just trying to go to bars and drink or stocking up his fridge with lots of beers and drinking himself to sleep at night. You can cover over the pain but the pain runs very deep and the pain runs to this sense of loss. The beliefs, Jesus says in the Course, you have many strange beliefs but perhaps the strangest of all your beliefs is that you can lose the ones that you love and that shows how deep this grief and this loss goes. It's really an ego belief in having an identity apart from God and so the ego is saying God left you, God abandoned you, God just left you in time and space now to struggle and try to make it through, survive and then you die in the end according to the ego's plan and really this whole cosmos is a self-concept of denying God's will, of denying God's love and pure spirit and happiness. So David and Elizabeth are our two main characters. Now they are basically, they have been set up by Elizabeth's sister to meet in a blind date. But as the script would have it, they don't ever make it to that blind date because Elizabeth is going to be hit by a truck and so her whole scenario as a doctor and her life comes to an abrupt end when she is in her car and she's got the music playing and she's just hit by a big truck and that brings the end to her life. However, the movie continues on even though they did not meet in the blind date, they do meet in her apartment, her former apartment has been rented out by her family and David is looking for a place to rent and he rents the apartment. So you have Elizabeth and David in the same apartment, we'll just say they're in a little bit different dimensions. She's more in what we might call in-between dimension, in between being in the world and being in another realm and so she's there in a different dimension we'll say of time. But you know what I always say it's all simultaneous so we're not surprised when Steven Spielberg comes out with a movie and he puts a man and a woman in the same apartment. One has seemed to gone into a coma we'll say and she's in between realms and and David is seemingly in the physical realms. So it doesn't really matter how two people are brought together or even what dimensions of time they're in, you know that whenever two people are brought together it's for forgiveness. It's always for forgiveness. It's always for letting go of everything that you believe about time and space like the mystics and saints have said for centuries empty your mind of everything you think you think think you know just empty your mind and come into the stillness of being and recognize the light that you truly are. So with David and Elizabeth they come together and he's pretty sure that he has rented this apartment and that he has moved in and it's his apartment. He's paying the rent. She's pretty sure that it's her apartment. She says no this is all my stuff these are all my things and she's will even try to convince him this is her apartment that she is in that he is in her apartment. The thing is they're brought together and all of their unconscious beliefs are going to get triggered. This happens every day in all relationships. All relationships on earth so to speak are being used to raise up the unconscious beliefs of the ego just to see that they're not true and in the end you're left with realizing wow nothing I ever really believed about time and space was true not a single thing because time is not linear it's all simultaneous all seeming lifetimes all seeming dimensions are all happening simultaneously. That's the great joy when you start to experience simultaneity then the ego disappears because the ego is incapable of perceiving time simultaneously all it can do is perceive past present and future. The ego only knows one perspective and that's linear time. The Holy Spirit knows that everything's simultaneous and so all of our lessons in relationships are helping us empty our mind of all of our time beliefs all of our linear time beliefs that's that's the straight truth of what's happening even when you have an expectation that your your room will be a certain temperature in the morning when you wake up that's a time expectation even when you have an expectation that your cat will do its do do in the litter box not on your living room carpet that's a linear time expectation even when you have an expectation when somebody says I'll call you at 4 p.m. and they give you the time zone and everything and then 4 p.m. comes and they don't call and you expected them to call that's a linear time expectation you know that's that's the thing of ego it's it's all just projections of unconscious beliefs in in linear time so we're going to have a beautiful love story that starts out with a lot of antagonism sarcasm petty judgments finger pointing a lot of intense emotions that come up because it's two beings David and Elizabeth that both believe that they're in their apartment and they both value their privacy and they both value their autonomy and they both value their sense of ownership with things and stuff they both value their actions and behaviors this is very typical in relationships where there's seemingly two selves interacting but it's really just an interaction that is a projection of the unconscious mind helping the mind release the unconscious beliefs now some other characters in it there is going to be a man who works in a new age bookstore who's who's a little bit psychic and his name is Darrell I don't know if you remember that movie chances are when Robert Downey Jr starts having these past life memories coming into his mind and so he goes to a new age bookstore and he starts reading up on reincarnation and he meets a woman there who basically tells him that she's she was Cleopatra and in this movie it's Darrell now Darrell is so he's such a funny guy he's kind of a he's kind of a young kind of a young San Francisco hippie working in a bookstore and he is absolutely hilarious because David in the movie is going to open up to him on can you help me understand this idea of spirits of a spirit of someone who's in my apartment and how do I deal with this he's actually going to go to the new age bookstore to try to get some help also David has a friend called Jack or his nickname is JJ but but Jack is a psychotherapist and it's like David's buddy you know and he's a psychotherapist he knows that David is going through great grief and loss and he's trying to offer the advice as best he can for his buddy to help him out but we also know that really the Holy Spirit and Jesus are the great healers of grief and loss we it's great when we have friends that reflect some beautiful advice from them but but we have to go very deep to be free of of those beliefs also Elizabeth has a sister named Abby she's married she's got a couple cute little girls who are Abby's nieces and one of them actually is capable of seeing toward the end of the movie is her young niece is able to actually see Elizabeth and then we have we have Brett who's like a competing doctor where Elizabeth works a friend is like her supervisor and we have Katrina who is someone who lives in the same apartment building where these were David and Elizabeth have this apartment and she's kind of a flirty and a bit aggressive sexually and that provides some very interesting lessons for both for both David and Elizabeth so this movie I think is a great Spielberg classic which is going to show us that we want to perceive the witnesses of forgiveness we need to have hope in peace and happiness and it is very helpful when we see relationships starting to be transformed sometimes very gradually by a power that's greater than each person there's something inside that starts to spark them towards coming closer together there's something inside that pulls us together even when we judge against the people that we are put with we find that that is part of a plan to help us release our judgments that there are no accidents in the plan and no two people ever meet by accident and at the beginning of this movie these two are brought together and they they just don't like each other but there's nothing more powerful than a witness of two people that don't like each other being used in a way that by the end of the movie they actually fall in love that all of the grievances are washed away all of the the finger pointing the opinions that the judgments just are slowly rinsed rinsed rinsed by the spirit and that's to me that's the best love story where it starts off with antagonism it starts off with friction it starts off with resistance Wesley Angie are you listening this is the best love story your your relationship has been for all of us to see you are in the middle of the greatest story on earth because the holy spirit purifying your relationship purifying it every day is the greatest story on earth it's the greatest story for all of us when we have a very difficult relationship that has light breaking through it that that is being lifted higher and higher every single day by the desire and the prayer for for healing and purification so I hope you enjoy it I will be with you I will come in from time to time and enjoy the humor too yeah Reese Witherspoon she is is amazing in in this movie I mean really all all of the actors are are absolutely amazing but it's because they the willingness is shown to heal and that is the greatest miracle that there ever could be just a willingness to say please help me heal please take me toward the light also the psychic Daryl is just so hilarious because we've seen some of these movies whether they involve after lives or in between lives or whatever so we're all pretty well accustomed to these kinds of movies but I want you to pay close attention to the tiny bits of willingness to open up to open up to another way another perspective okay enjoy the movie see you all very shortly

Radio here today at Mustang Stadium, Glenn Clark, MC McFadden. Now joined by the head coach, the Mustangs, Coach Kathy Rayleigh. Coach, a pretty dominant performance in every aspect of this one. Can't imagine there's anything you're too unhappy about right now. Oh, nothing I am unhappy about. But I am super happy that we were able to play every player. Not only did we play every player, but they all had some sort of contribution to the win today, whether it be a goal or a cause turnover or a great man-to-man defense or a draw control. So what fun to have people with statistics everywhere when you have a squad that large. Well, it's an emotional day. It's senior day. You have three great seniors. Talk about what they mean to your program. I don't even know if there are words for that. We have hopefully so much more of the season to play. So I don't have goodbye in my heart yet. So I don't want to go there or I'll cry. So I don't want to do that. Not yet. You know, this group just never gave up on what we could be as a team. Never gave up on what needed to be done to kind of regroup over the last couple of years and just, you know what, we're just going to go out. We're going to have fun. We're going to be great teammates. And we're going to do the very best we can in our final year to put our team in a position to be playing for the NCAA tournament. And all that hard work has just paid off. They're a great group, every single one of them. They all bring different talents and different strengths. But where I think that we are so much more ahead of maybe some of the other teams in the conferences, they're great people. They're outstanding young women who are strong and brave and confident. And like I said, great teammates. All right, I'm going to put this to you before we let you go because you brought all three of them up. I did, I saw a lot. Yes, I hope we do. I asked MC at one point. I said, you guys have had some tough ones against Messiah over the last few years, and particularly these veteran players, like they've been through some of that. MC said, yeah, but these freshmen know nothing about it. They know nothing about it. All they know is it's a big game and then we want to go win it. The difference, what's it going to take this time? It was a comparative last couple of years to get over this hump and win the Matt Commonwealth outright in the regular season. I don't think any one of us see it as a hump for this 2019 team. I think that we see as an opportunity to showcase what we've worked hard to become. I think our camaraderie on the field, we have very little doubts. I mean, we didn't have our best start today, but after a very kind of flat start and not following the game plan, boom, turned it around because we do have that trust in each other and that confidence. I look forward to this game more than any game that I've played this season because I can't wait to see what Messiah looks like when they see us as we are today. We've been underestimated this year, and I think that it's tough to be that many strong and that kind of confidence. So I'm really looking forward to it. I think our game, style of game really matches up well. I think that when you are in the first place, you put yourself in such a psychological position that what an advantage, what an advantage going in. So they have everything to worry about. We've got nothing to worry about. We just play our game and we'll come out on top. Love that. Yes, thank you. Love it, best of luck. Well, you know what? Hey, let's do this. Tell everybody to come out and support you guys on Wednesday night. We're gonna try. We're gonna try to do that. We need those fellas that were over there. All these, all their boyfriends, all their boyfriends. Time to come on back. You need a big crowd. I was testing him for a big game. Thank you. All right, Coach, we'll see you on Wednesday. Coach Kathy Rayleigh joining us in the All Access Post Game Show.

Ridley Terminals doubles coal capacity
|
Ridley Terminals Inc. (RTI) is installing two new dumper barrels that is the first part of an expansion that will increase its coal handling capacity from 12 million to 24 million tonnes. The replacement of two dumper barrels and site preparation of 44 acres of land is the first phase of four stages of terminal modifications at RTI. As a result, 20-25 new permanent jobs and additional contract work will be created in British Columbia.

We have a second dumper being put into Ridley Terminal. That also will help for the expansion of coal shipments through Ridley Terminal. Obviously a vital link for northeast British Columbia, the coal that comes out of there, the Tumblridge-Chetwinde area, but also other areas. It has expanded. It is taking coal from south of the border. It takes coal from Alberta. So the expansion with the second dumper at Ridley Terminal. Another great new story for British Columbia and certainly the people of Prince Rupert as well.

You guys both have like the foot fetish feet. Do you want to explain? Y'all don't want to see my toes. No, I don't want to explain when you explain it. Sorry I yelled at you. You're fine. Hello my lovers. Today I have two incredible women sitting beside me. That's good. I like that all more, please. According to social psychologist Dr. Lehmiller, moaning conveys preferences. It reassures partners they're sexually competent and shows gratitude. It's not just physical. It can be emotional, sexual, verbal, and controlling behavior. No one has the right to make you feel pressured, controlled, ashamed, or scared. And there is never an excuse for abuse. And we were together at VidCon speaking on a panel called Duh. Let's talk about sex. And then before we do that. And so I said, ladies, let's get together in someone's bedroom, you know, kiss. And they were like, okay, no one the kissing. I said, okay, plan B, can we do a video together? So we're doing an exercise called sex geekdom, sex conversations. This is a group that brings together people all around the world for having sexy conversations without having sex. Without having sex. Which we're not doing. Yeah, so we've been running through these prompts on all of our channels and this is the time. It's my time to be Alex Trebek. Okay, for 200. When you have a question about sex, whose advice do you seek? My friends. Sex geekdom. Duh. Which do you think is the most interesting STI? Most interesting? Yes. Herpes. Yeah. It's so fascinating, but HIV is definitely the smartest. Yeah, it's such a very intelligent. It like disguises itself. It's like a chameleon. HIV comes into the body. It attaches itself to the T cell. HIV is systematically crippling your ability to fight off anything. People don't die from HIV. People die with HIV. The name of the condition they're in when they start to get sick is called AIDS. That's mind-blowing to me. We're okay. Thank you. No, thank you. They came in my room at 8.30 in the morning. Like what kind of Friday did the guy had? How do you imagine your sex life when you're over 80? Still having it, hopefully. Or gasp in the garden. Oh, this is a blank question. Okay, I'm going to make one up. It's not a blank question. All right, thoughts on squirting. Fantastic. Cool. But I still don't understand the kind of squatting and pulling. I'm like... Well, I want to ask, because I'm curious about this, in all the research and books that I've ever read that are specifically about female sexual pleasure, squirting has never come up. So why is it now that squirting is like a normative of how we experience pleasure? Really? Really, okay. Beverly Whipple has a book. Yes. That is about it, but it's somewhat outdated. And there is an Italian research project. I think it was Italian. I'll have to do some research there to double check me, but that came out saying it's urine, which it's not. And so there's a lot of controversy about it. And even when I was in school, the room would split between biosex females who had squirted and those who hadn't. And it was got nasty. It doesn't mean to get nasty at all. All of our bodies function differently. We can have different ranges with our voices. Why can't we have different ranges with our body fluids? And yeah. The way that I kind of think that it works is that anal beads are when you orgasm, you release and you pull them out because that sensation combined with orgasm is good. So I think with squirting, it's like when you have an orgasm and you voluntarily push out liquid, it can feel really good because it's an extra release. But I don't think it's an, is it a natural side effect of orgasm or is it a trained behavior that you can put in conjunction with? Um, I think it would be kind of difficult to figure out whether or not it was learned or innate behavior. Have you squirted? Yes. But it's not synonymous with orgasm to me. Yes? Yes. But like, no. It's like, there's some extra liquid. Yeah. And some people can definitely squirt from here to the window and glass folds. For some people, there's an apparatus put in for pornography to give the effect, but there are people who can definitely... So both of you guys, I'm just, I haven't. So we got things to learn, Ms. Boudram. You always got things to learn. Okay. Great, just the way you are. I do. I love my pleasure and I don't think it's less or subpar. It's great, but it's always nice. I never know when it's gonna happen. Yeah. You don't? Mm-mm. Oh. That's why I always put a towel down when I masturbate. Oh, even when you self-pleasure? That's when you have those experiences? Mm-hmm. Wow. Do you ever have them during partner sex? Nope. Is it only clitoral or is it G-spot that gets you to that? Clitoral. Mine's G-spot. Well, it's a both. Yeah. Because G-spot would make more sense because you're pressing on the actual tissue. I don't know. As I'm saying, it's like, I know, I'm supposed to know. Okay, so do you believe in the skinny gland? Like that only some women have that? That that's like... No, I just say that the skin's gland is the same as perigary throat tissue, which is the same as a prostate. But not everybody has it because it's like an evolutionary unnecessary. So some women, we don't need a prostate, so we don't have that. Okay. I mean, that's the thing. It's like, I'm like, maybe only some can. I don't know if it's everybody can, some just don't know how, or if evolutionary some of us have that and some of us lost it because we didn't need it. I don't know. Stay curious. Stay curious. All I ask is that you stay curious. What are some of the stereotypes about people who like to talk about sex? Oh, good one. They were having lots of sex. That were amazing at it, or were terrible at it. I think that we're very judgmental of other people's sexual lives. Oh, I hope you don't think that about us. A lot of people think that the partners that I have must be like put through the ringer. Like I make them feel like less. You know, because you know more. But I don't think it's that at all. I think everyone's an expert in their own body, and I treat my partners with that same respect. Like you are an expert, like I'm an expert on my body, and I have a lot to learn. I think people think that my partners are sex gods. They're like, you can handle Lindsay Doe. Aren't they though? What? Aren't they though? Sure. All right, this is my favorite question. What is your favorite thing about your body? And can you show it? My clitoris. No. Okay, so those were some juicy ass answers. And if you guys want to see more, make sure that you go over to Hannah Witton's channel where we've got more answers and more questions. And of course, to Sexplanations where you can find a lot of information. These ladies, if you subscribe to me, you're going to be obsessed with them. So do yourself a favor and go over there and get to all the click in. And of course with me, also do all the clicking. And in the comment section below, I want to know two things from you guys. One, your experience with squirting. Are you or have you not? If you're a guy, how do you feel about it? What you think about it? And also, how do you envision your sex life when you turn 80? All I ask is that you stay curious. I looked this guy in the face and I said, it is not my fault you're fucked up. The most powerful thing I could have done. It is not my fault that you are fucked up. There is nothing that I could do. There is no more that I could love. There is nothing that I could have said to make you a good person. And you have to go on that journey for yourself and that journey does not include me.

National Vehicle Scrappage Policy is an important aspect of creating a circular economy: PM Modi

While launching the National Automobile Scrappage Policy, PM Modi said that this policy is going to give a new identity to the auto sector and to the mobility of New India. He said, "Modernity in mobility, not only reduces the burden of travel and transportation, but also proves to be helpful for economic development. The goal for 21st century India to be Clean, Congestion Free and Convenient Mobility, is the need of the hour."

Welcome to All Hands Update. Here's what's happening around your Navy. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mavis met with his leadership team to discuss the services enlisted rating titles or view. During the meeting, the C&O and McPon agreed to develop a new approach to enlisted ratings that provides greater detailing flexibility while translating more clearly to the American public. A U.S. Navy MH-60 Sierra helicopter crashed in the James River in Norfolk during a training mission. The crew members were rescued and transported to the Naval Medical Center Portsmouth.

Ətdə boş verənlər kədərli hadisə deyib, birinci, Ramiz məllimin itkisi son dərəcə kədərli hadisə deyib, ikinci, Ramiz məllime olan münasibətdə son dərəcə kədərli hadisə deyib. Milli Şuranın Sədri Cəməl Həsənli bu sözləri yanvar aynın birində 84 yaşında vəfat etmiş Azərbaycanın diplomatı birinci dərəcələ müşavir İçtimaya Qadim Ramiz Abutalubov haqqında danışar çəndəyib. Ramiz Abutalubov 1937-ci ilin oktiyabır aynın 27-sində ziyalə aləsində anadan olub, 1984-ci illərdə o Azərbaycan Kamunis Partiyası Mərkəzi Kapitəsində xarici əlagələr şövbəsinin müdürü Azərbaycan estiri aili saviyyətinin xarici işləri üzülə kamisiyasının sədri vəzifələrində çalışmışdır. Ramiz Abutalubov 1971-79-cu iləcə də 1985-1992-ci illərdə Parisdə Birləşmiş Millətlər Təşçılatının təhsil, elin və mədəniyyət üzülə çatibliyinin Yünesko on əməktaşı olmuşdur. 1993-2004-ci illərdə o Azərbaycan Respublikası Qarici işləri nazirliyinin xüsusi tapşırıqlar üzrə səfiri və Yünesko üzrə Azərbaycan Millik Kamisiyasının baş çatimi vəzifələrində işləmişdir. Ramiz Abutalubov, Azərbaycan Cumhuriyyətinin 1920-ci illə suqutundan sonra muhazirətlə yaşamış, Azərbaycan İçtimaist siyasi xadimlərinin həyət və fəaliyyətlərinin araşdırılmasında, xarici də arxıf sənədlərinin tapılmasında xüsusi rol oynamışdır, bu əvəssiz tariqı sənədlərinin toplanmasında və Azərbaycana cətirilməsində Ramiz Abutalubovun bir üç zəhməti vardır. Bu sənədlərlə bağlı, 12 çitabın müəllifidir. Onların 8-i masquada, üçü başıda, biri isə İstanbul'da çap olunmuşdur. Dağlıq Karabakh Münakışəsində dair 1989-1992-ci illərdə, Fransa'da çap olunmuşdur çitabın tərtibçisi və naşiridir. Allah rəhmət eləsi. Ramiz Mədləm, son dərəcə mükevaz bir adamdır. Yəni, o elədikləri neyəsə görə iləmirdir. O onun həyat tərzi idi. Və elədikləri nə görədir? Üfət beyi, heç şəsləndə bir təməndə gözləmirdir. Mükafat gözləmirdir. Aldığı mükafatı da öz vicdanından alırdır. Bir vicdan rahatlığı taqırdı ki, mən bu şeyləri ilədir. elədiklə, bizim Ramiz Abutalıboğunan uzun bir tanışlı dostlu, ondan sonra yaxşı münasibətlərimiz olubdur, o Paris-də işlədiyi devirdə bugünləri bizim ayrı bir dostumuz. Uzun müddət Paris-də yaxşıyan, təbrizdən olan Mənmədəli Talcəhəmədi bir yaxşı yazı yazmışdı. Mən bugünləri gördüm ona Azarlıq Qəzdi'nin saytında elədiyəkdə Ramiz Abutalıboğun haqqında qısa xatərlərin yazmışdı ki, nəcə tanış olub ondan? Və həmin o Savit Diplamatu Oluova Ramiz Abutalıboğun milli mənəvi irsə, Azərbaycansılıq məsələsinə, Azərbaycan Mədəniyyəti ilə, tarix ilə, ədəbiyyatı ilə bağlı olan məsəllərə, nəcə qayıq ilə dirqət ilə yaxşı? O cümhuliyyət qurusu varının övladlarına yer gəlmişdəm, olardan biri inən şəxsən tanışı idi, hətta bir dəfə onun vizid kartının arqinalın Məhəməd Məhəm, Məhəməd Məhərəmovun vizid kartının arqinalın da vermişdi Ramiz bəy, mənə, Ramiz bəy, ələkbər bəy, topçu başının arxivindən qeymətli sənədlərlə yanaşı, həyli qeymətli fotolar da çötürmüşdü və o çox çalışırdı ki, ələkbər topçu başı sağlıqında Azərbaycana gəlsin və bu barədə onun bir təqdimatı da var, hələ, Sabət devriddə, içiyi 70-ci illərdə onun Azərbaycana səfər etməsi ilə bağlı və bütün bunlar əlmət də xalqın gözündə dibyətinlə yayınmadığı və özür də görudur ki, xalq ona nə qədər böyük hürmət münasibətbəslər və əslində Ramiz Abutalı Bobun vida mərasimi xalqın qəlbində oldu, həni o zal vermədilər, nə bilim, Mahnı Tiyatrın vermədilər, ya o təzəbər mətcidinim salın vermədilər, bilirsən, mən müqaisə etmək istəməcdiyim, amma bu qərarları verənlər, o qədər çiçik adamlardılar və Ramiz Abutalı Bobun gördüğü böyük işlərin fonunda, onlar o qədər çılız adamlardılar ki, olar nə bilir millətin, milli və mənəvi həyatında Ramiz Abutalı Bobun nə qədər böyük rolo var? Və oların yeri gəlmiş yəndeyim ki, yörgü mamulye inən sonuşu, həni dört çilidlik ki, topçü başının paris arxıvin onlar çapilədirlər, vaxtilə həydər eləyi o arxıvı alabilmədir, vaxtilə Azərbaycan xarzi işlər nazirliyi rəsmik qaydədə o arxıvı alabilmədir. Amma Ramiz Abutalı Bobun o arxıvin demək olar ki, bütün mühim sənədlərin həmin o dört çilidlikdə elmərdən bəyi şəxsi arxıvindən götürmüş o sənədləri çapilədir və hesab eləyirəm ki, bu milli irsə qoyulmuş böyük bir ağabeydə idi. Yəni, Ramiz Abutalı Bobun xırda iş yox idi, çiçi iş yox idi, ötəri iş yox idi, o şey ki, millətlə bağlı idi, o şey ki, milli yatdaşlə bağlı idi, o şey ki, milli mənəviyyətlə bağlı idi, böyükləyəmdən, çiçiçəyəmdən asılı olmayaraq o Ramiz Abutalı Bobun həyət amalı olan bir iş idi. Və yer gəlmişə deyim ki, o hər şəhə hazır bir adam idi, o məzarının üstünə səriləcək bayrağı da qabaqsadan hazırlamışdı, o vidam ərasımində qoyulacaq partirətin də qabaqsadan hazırlamışdı. Şəhəni əlumanda həmin partirəti qoyudular, elə oldu. Bəli, bəli, bəli, o 92-ci ildə çəkilən deməli bir şəkil idi və özüzlə görürsünlə qədəri bir şəkil idi, ona görə də Ramiz Abutalı Bobun ikisi ağırdı. Çünki böyük bir epoqhanə parda özü iləm və o epoqhanında bilirsiniz, əsas qayəsi nədən ibarət idi, təmən nasız olaraq millətə xidmət etmək. Bu idi Ramiz Abutalı Bobun həyatının, yaşamının, mənası və məzmunu bundan ibarət idi ki, necə təmən nasız bu millətə xidmət etmək olaraq.

So you found this hidden video goodie for you since you're here. I'll show you something Be coming up on this channel my hardware channel here in the near future just working with this a 8-segment 8-digit LCD screen or sorry LED screen I got this with the 8 digits so to two little module or two little Displays there and the module board for a dollar 63 on Amazon this one $1.63 free shipping on Amazon got a lot of China It takes five wires to connect to the module and you can connect multiple modules one to another Right there you can see there's pins to connect another board at the end So that connects the Arduino right now I'm connecting to an Arduino and I have that connected to my computer through USB and these numbers are being sent From my computer through a little loop here So just a little shell command basically looping forever looping zero through nine in position and looping through You know each digit and it's doing is sending that to the serial port With a slight delay between each number and looping forever and that's given us this real here where it's going through one two three on all all the little different displays there now Just to give you a little more preview. I can close this command sorry about this and basically switch one variable here from I To X we get slightly different output now Instead of doing one two three all the way across it's doing one two three four five six seven eight nine I started zero one two three four five six seven eight nine moving one position and then doing it again So yeah, that's why I'm just playing around with that just got this in the mail today I did do display stuff many years ago when I first got an Arduino Although I didn't have one of these module boards and I was doing it manually, which was very difficult and for a buck 63 this is a great deal and Like said right now. I'm connecting through serial USB serial to my Arduino, but my next step is to figure out how to do this which should be pretty much the same with an ESP module that way I can send Data to it through HTTP requests or have it retrieve information from the internet like weather or time or stock numbers or prices of something and Display it there. So yeah, that's one of the things I'm working on that will be Coming up in the coming months. There's many many stuff coming up And because you found the secret video this hidden video you got a little preview of it. So goodie for you

Good morning guys, happy Wednesday. I made my coffee for this morning and this morning I used, of course, my vital proteins, collagen, peptides. I do buy these at Costco, I get tons of questions, but I do have these linked in my Amazon store as well if you're not a member of Costco. And then I have one point's worth of the Organic Valley Sweet Cream Creamer, which is one of my very favorites. I put it here in my pretty little mason jar with some ice and a little bit of filtered water. And it's a one smart point iced coffee and it is delicious. So that is what I'm having this morning for my coffee. Hey guys, happy Wednesday. I forgot to film making my coffee so I thought I'd pop on really quick and say hello, wish you guys a fantastic Wednesday. Of course, this is another What I Eat Wednesday. So you're going to see my food throughout the entire day today. We're gonna show Ticillin Lola. I have an impromptu grocery haul where I found some amazing new things. They're so much fun waiting for you in today's video. So, without further ado, let's jump right in. Someone is really cozy, hi babe. You look like a human with your head on mommy's pillow. I covered you up with the sheets. I'm trying to wash the bedding so she's only got sheets left. The rest is in the wash. But she's as cozy as can be, aren't you? I love you. Look at that big grid on her face. Hey guys, I thought I'd show you me putting my breakfast together this morning rather than just showing you the completed. This is a sweet oatmeal bowl, I guess you would call it. So I have one cup of rolled oats that I just cooked in my microwave with about three quarters of a cup of water. I'm going to add two packets of the Lakonto Monk Fruit Sweetener. And that's just going to help sweeten up my oats a little bit more and be zero smart points. Sometimes I like to add maple syrup but I'm putting a lot of pointed toppings on my oatmeal. So that's a good way to say points and skip the point for the maple syrup and just use some sugar alternative. So I mixed that in really, really well. I'm going to add one eighth of a cup of this Maple Hill full fat Greek yogurt. So I'm going to put that kind of right on top. Now it's going to make my oats nice and creamy. And then of course I have my chia seeds which is another one of my very favorite things to top my oats with. So I'm going to do one smart point worth of chia seeds. Kind of add that along the side. And then I'm also for a little added crunch, a little extra protein. Going to go ahead and add one tablespoon of these pumpkin seeds as well. And that again is just going to add a nice crunch. Give me a little extra bit of protein. And then I'm going to top it with some fresh fruit. So I have some organic raspberries. Look at how great these raspberries look. So this is going to just enhance the sweetness as well of my bowl by just adding on some sweet fruit. So there's some raspberries. And I'm also going to add some organic blueberries. Put a good amount of those on there too. And then we stir this together and we have an amazing filling, clean eating breakfast. Doesn't this look so good? And then literally I just stir it all together. Mix those chia seeds, the yogurt, makes it nice and creamy. And then the berries just add a really nice flavor. And the chia seeds and pumpkin seeds add a good texture but also give you a really good dose of nutritional benefit. So my bowl is four smart points for the yogurt. One smart point for the chia seeds, one smart point for the pumpkin seeds, and one point for the yogurt. So this is seven smart points. Victoria Bell is here. I placed a pretty big order. I wanted to grab some lashes. So I went ahead and picked up a kit that actually came with lashes, the shadow, the lip gloss and a liner, which is really, really cool. So I wanted to show you guys what I got. So in that kit, I went ahead and picked up the selfie lashes. Now these are right up my alley. These are much more of a dramatic lash. As you can see, they're really bold, really, really long. I think they're really pretty. These little bits at the bottom, these are called anchors. So what you can do is you can add these under your natural lash, and it anchors your lashes even better and gives you a little bit extra volume. So you can see they have lashes on them as well. So I am so excited about these. So these is well as this shadow palette, which is gorgeous. This is called Space Out. Show this to you guys. Look at these colors. This came as part of that kit as well. I love these. So if you guys wanna see me do a get ready with me and use this palette, let me know. But I am super excited about this. It also came with this lip color. So this is how it comes packaged. This is the color I chose. It's Velvet Kisses. It's this really pretty red. Super excited about this. I'll pop in a picture and show you guys what it looks like with me wearing it. So that came in there as well. And I also got a liner. So this is how the liner comes packaged. And this is the liner itself. And I wanted to show you guys how thin the liner is because it goes on so awesome. Look at how thin the actual liner brush is. You don't get any clumps or bulky lines. It's amazing. So this is the magnetic liner. It lasts forever. And again, it comes in this package here. Separately I bought the date night lashes. These are the date night. So they're full lashes, but they're a little more natural looking than the selfie lashes. And again, it comes with anchors. So I did the bundle where I bought the lashes and a liner. And that's why I actually have two of the liners. So you guys have to pick up Tori Bell. Seriously, best lashes. And what I like too is it comes with this cute little card here that tells you how to use the liner, how to use the anchors, which are those little extra pieces that you can attach for more volume and to hold your lashes on. And then on the back, even troubleshooting ideas. So they give you all the instructions and everything that you need. I have a link for Tori Bell down below. Highly recommend that you guys check these out if you are looking for some lashes. They have tons of natural lashes, the more vibrant lashes, whatever you're after, but I'm literally obsessed. All right, my friends, here is my lunch for today. I'm stoked for this. So first over here, I have four of the Trader Joe's Hicama wraps. These are zero smart points. These are phenomenal. This is my second pack. And I'm almost out of them. They're so delicious. They are crispy and crunchy. You can see they're really, really pliable. So they literally are like a soft taco shell for zero smart points. I love them with tacos. I love them making a little like turkey wrap like I did here. So if you can get your hands on these at your local Trader Joe's, highly, highly recommend. I also have one point worth of the Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Manes. And I went ahead and spread that out over all of the four shells. So it's literally less than a tablespoon over the four shells. And then I have zero points worth because this is zero points, but I have one serving, which is two slices. I always try to stay as close as I can to the serving size of zero point foods. So I have two slices of the Trader Joe's Organic Oven Roasted Turkey Breath. And I just ripped each slice in half, topped it with some arugula. And then I fold this up and I literally have like four little turkey wraps. Such a fantastic. I love these. Whoever thought of these, A plus. And then I have a salad. So we have a salad for dinner last night and this is what was left over. So this is quite a big salad, but basically it's baby greens, arugula, cucumbers, green onions. I put in a little bit of fresh basil, which is an amazing thing to add to salad. So I have some of that. I have a few strawberries, blueberries, and then I have two points worth of the Trader Joe's Feta Cheese. And the dressing I used today is the Chosen Foods Orange Ball Somic. This is just really good with the salad with fruit in it. I don't know, I just was feeling this. I didn't feel like making it my own dressing. So I used two points worth of this. So it's two tablespoons for 80 calories. So I have two points in my dressing, two points in my Feta, which is four points. I have one point worth of Chosen Foods Avocado Mayo. So this entire lunch, you guys, is five smart points. So for dessert, I guess, from lunch, I'm going to have one of my pieces of zucchini bread that I made in meal prep. You guys, this zucchini bread is so delicious. It's better than full fat, really point-heavy zucchini bread. It's so good, it's clean, it's healthy. The recipe is on my website and was featured in meal prep posted on Monday. If you want to go back and watch how I made the bread, but it's five smart points per slice. I'm doing really good on points today. I really wanted some zucchini bread. It doesn't even need butter, it's that good. So this is my five smart point snacks slash dessert from lunch. All right, my friends, look at this. This is the aftermath of making breakfast and meal prepping. There's dishes everywhere. My stove is filthy dirty. So don't let anyone tell you that there isn't a lot of cleanup involved in meal prep, but let's get this dirty kitchen cleaned up and sparkling and clean. So it took a little bit to get everything nice and clean, but look, my stove is clean and my sink is clean and everything is set for the rest of the day. So, voila, clean kitchen. So here is a mini, a Target haul. I've actually never grocery shopped at Target and I went to get a new utensil holder and I thought, well, why the heck? Since I'm here, I'm gonna see what they have. You guys, I'm impressed. Way to go Target on your organic section. So I picked up just a few things. I found some new things and I'll definitely put on the screen what I think of them because by the time you see this video, I would have tried them all. So let's jump into my little mini Target haul. These party little bites, I cannot find these anywhere. I tried Walmart, I tried Rosar's for Admire, so I saw them at Target and I went ahead and picked up two boxes. You guys know my husband loves these. These are actually for him. I don't eat these, but he loves them. So I grabbed two boxes and then I actually found organic all-purpose flour at Target. I have been unable to find all-purpose, just regular flour that's organic and I just spotted this and snatched it right up. So now I know where I can go to pick up flour if I don't order it from Thrive. Thrive is a little less expensive, but in a pinch, I'm really excited that I was able to find that at Target. And then I found these Pizza Crust, which another thing I'm really excited about. These are the Good and Gather Organics. These are the Ultra Thin Pizza Crust. They actually have a really good ingredient. They have the High Oleic Sunflower Oil, which is awesome, which is a much better version of oil. So I was excited about that. Everything's organic. You can have one third of the crust for 150 calories or the entire crust for 440. And I'll put the points here on the screen. So I mean, a third of this crust for 150 calories, which is probably four points, is a great deal. So I was excited about that. Picked up my favorite chocolate chips, way cheaper at Target than anywhere else. I think Target and Thrive, the prices are similar. Speaking of Thrive, you guys, there's a link down below for $20 worth of free product when you join Thrive. So just so you know, there's a great deal going on on the Thrive Market. But $4.99 for the Enjoy Life. Again, you guys, these have fantastic ingredients. There's literally four in the entire bag of chocolate chips. They have none of the allergens. And I believe it's three smart points for a tablespoon, but of course, it'll be here on the screen. Went ahead and grabbed the Natural Bliss Whipped Buttercream. I don't love Natural Bliss because it has natural flavor, but sometimes I just want whipped buttercream creamer. This is my favorite one. So this is where that 90-10 falls in. 90% clean eating, 10% my favorite things. This is one of those 10%. So I bought this, it'll last forever. I probably only drink it once a week. I'll sub out my Laird or my Organic Valley, which are much better options for creamer, but you know, you gotta live a little. So this is a new thing. I've actually never heard of this brand. This is called Partake. Simple, wholesome, and delicious. These are birthday cake cookies. I had one of these on the way home. These are so good, you guys. They're top eight allergen-free, vegan, and gluten-free. You can have three cookies for the smart points, which I don't know what that is, but they have fantastic ingredients and everything in here that needs to be organic is organic. So I was excited about these. They had a couple other flavors, so I'll definitely be repurchasing these and maybe try some of the other flavors. These are for my husband. He loves waffles and they were like $1.29, which is a steal. Here's another new thing for me. Are the Lara Bar minis. So this is the apple pie and cookie, or I'm sorry, cashew cookie. So there's five of each bar in here. They're only 100 calories. I'm sure they're gonna be high in points because of the natural sugar because there's zero added sugar in these. You guys, it's dates, almonds, apples, walnuts, raisins, and cinnamon. Yeah, and cashew one is literally cashews and dates. Clean as clean can be. I'll take the points for it to have a clean bar and I'd never seen the mini. So I was excited about that. Got some olives so that we can make the pizza. We love olives and these are three little mini cans. So got those. Also some blue cheese. Since I wasn't able to find these grocery shopping, I wanted blue cheese for a wedge salad recipe. Here's a new item. This is the Simply Balance Cultivated Wild Rice. So this is in the little pack you throw in the microwave. Normally these contain oil. This one does not. It's literally just the wild rice and water. So I was excited to try that wild rice as one of the best rice that you can have. So I am excited to try this for sure. This would be zero points on the purple plan as well, you guys. And cheese. Was a killer price at Target for organic cheese. So I grabbed some Good and Gather Organic Colby Jack slices. This is my husband's favorite cheese. And then I grabbed the Colby Jack Shredded. 100 calories for this and only $2.59. You guys, that is such a good deal for organic cheese. I can't even believe it. So I grabbed that. And here is another new find which I about died when I saw this. There was also brownie batter. This is dessert hummus by Delighted Buy. This is the Snicker Doodle Cookie. So the ingredients in this, you guys, are exceptional. It's 60 calories for two tablespoons, which again, I don't know what that equals out to in points, but it'll be here on the screen. Everything in here is organic. It is made with turbinado sugar, which is really similar to regular sugar. I wish it would have been different. It may be coconut sugar, but all in all, this is really good ingredients. It's non-GMO. I'm so excited. I'll let you guys know on the screen how this is, but if I like this, I may pick up the brownie batter. And this is what I went to Target for, which is just a new utensil holder, dark gray to match with my new appliances. So that is my little Target haul. How fun. Hey guys, I wanna come on really quick and show you my new shirt. Remember I bought that really, really cute Coffee Over Cardio baseball tee? Well, I love that shirt so much and I've heard that their tee shirts are so soft and they are. I had to buy another shirt. Look at this coffee on the rocks. Isn't that seriously the cutest? So I went ahead and picked this up with my last Coffee Over Cardio order. I also ordered some more coffee. So let me flip you around, show you the coffee that I ordered. So this time I picked up the birthday cake. Oh my goodness, this coffee is so good. It's just as good as the French toast one. I'm obsessed. You guys, I love Coffee Over Cardio. I love bones, but Coffee Over Cardio is so much better. The coffee is a lot less bitter, more flavorful. I'm so excited and you guys have to see they always have these cute little sayings on the bags. I eat cake because it's somebody's birthday somewhere. I love that and I love cake of course. So this coffee seriously is amazing. And I'm just having it in my little, just a girl boss building her empire. My cute little Tory Bell lashes mug that I bought. I just think it's so, so cute, so cute. So this coffee, if you are looking for a really good flavored coffee, highly, highly recommend. I actually have 10% off for you guys with Coffee Over Cardio. You can buy their cute clothes, coffee. She's even got some coffee creamers and things like that. So highly recommend. It is a small business. So at this time especially, it's great to try to support a small business. So the code's here on the screen and everything's down below but you guys have to pick up this Coffee Over Cardio. Treats? Okay, come here. Come here. Come over here with your sister. Right over here, buddy. Hey. All right. They're gonna get their whimsy's which is one of their very, very favorites. Can you sit for mama? Do you still sit? Good boy. Sit square, oh good job. There you are guys. All right guys, it's afternoon snack time. It's just before three. I'm getting a little bit hungry. So I'm gonna have a scoop of my Primal Kitchen Collagen Fuel and Peanut Butter. You guys know I love this. It is so good. This is my favorite little protein shake. Pick me up afternoon snack. So this has a fan-tastic ingredients. It's going to give you a dose of collagen and it also gives you 11 grams of protein. It is two smart points per scoop. Anything Primal Kitchen has a fabulous ingredients. I love them. I do have 10% off for Primal Kitchen. I'll put that code here on the screen. There's a link down below. I love it, as you guys know. So I used their marinade. I'm using their collagen fuel. I am going to order some other flavors but right now I'm just loving this peanut butter. And then I have one cup of my Forager organic dairy-free cashew milk. You guys know this is my favorite milk alternative. And then I pop that here into my magic bullet and I've got one frozen banana and a bag of frozen spinach. So let's blend this up and make ourselves a protein shake. Right, there it is. I know it's green but I promise you you cannot even taste the spinach in there. Look how beautiful that is. So there she is. There is my protein shake for this afternoon. So it's two points for the collagen fuel from Primal Kitchen. Definitely check out their website with the link below. And two points for the Forager cashew milk. Now of course you could lower the points if you use a less pointed almond milk or milk alternative but I love the Forager. So this is my four smart point afternoon snack. So for dinner tonight I'm going to be making a loaded wedge salad. This is one of my favorite salads when I go out to dinner. And usually you guys you'd be shocked at the calories, the fat, the points in a wedge salad. So I'm making a WW friendly but clean eating wedge salad. I can't wait to share this with you guys. And then we are pairing that with that chicken that I marinated in the Primal Kitchen marinade. So let me show you what's in our wedge salad. First you're going to need some apple cider vinegar. Of course a big head of iceberg lettuce. Non-fat Greek yogurt. You can use whole milk Greek yogurt. I decided to go with non-fat just to save on the points because this is kind of a point heavy dinner. And then also some cherry tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, bacon. I'm going to be using the private selection center cut because you can have two slices for one point. This is one of my favorite bacons. You'll need a shallot, salt and pepper, blue cheese crumbles, green onion. And then of course I have my chicken breast. They've been marinating in that marinade all day. So let's get started on dinner. The first thing I did is went ahead and put all of my bacon on a sheet pan. I like to cook this in my oven at 400. It's the quickest cleanup, the less messy cleanup. So I'm going to go ahead and get my bacon started. I don't know if you guys can hear that. Holy moly, look at this. So we are having a huge storm. Can you guys see the rain? It is like huge rain. They're saying even quarter size hail. Isn't that crazy? Look it out there on the basketball court. Look at that rain, holy moly. Okay, sorry, back to dinner. So I'm going to go ahead and get the bacon in the oven. In the meantime, I'm going to go ahead and get these sliced in half to make them a little thinner. We've got to cut up the cherry tomatoes, the green onions, the shallot, and we even have to go ahead and chop our head of lettuce in half. So we got some chopping to do. I lose my breath whenever I see you. You stole my heart. What is it that you do, bad at color? So for the chicken, I'm going to go ahead and spray my skillet here with some non-stick cooking spray. We're going to go ahead and add our pieces of chicken. I actually have four now that I went ahead and cut them a little thinner. I like them thin, sliced, and they cook a lot faster that way. So I'm going to go ahead and get this cooking on the stove top. So we're going to go ahead and put together the dressing and we'll just set this aside while the chicken and the bacon cook. So in a bowl here, I'm going to do one half of a cup of non-fat Greek yogurt. So we're making our own low-point blue cheese dressing which is awesome. And then to that, we're going to go ahead and add in our shallot that we chopped up and very, very finely. One teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, one ounce of blue cheese crumbles, and then just a little bit of pepper and a little bit of salt. And then we're going to mix this together and this is going to be the dressing for our wedge salad. All right, I just pulled out the bacon. Our chicken is just about done and then we'll put together the wedge salad, pop on a piece of chicken and we have dinner. All right, so for the salad, I went ahead and pulled out the wedges of lettuce. So I'm going to go ahead and just put one whole wedge here on my plate. When you go to eat the salad is when you chop it up with your fork and a knife to actually create more of a salad. It starts out as a wedge and you could lay it on its side. I mean, you could do whatever. I think I'm going to go ahead and turn mine and I'm going to pull out the center which is not the good part of the head of lettuce. And then we're literally adding all of our goodies to the top of this. So I'm going to go ahead and add half of my little cherry tomatoes that I went ahead and sliced up. And again, when you cut this up into actual little pieces of lettuce, when you go to eat it, you're going to get those veggies mixed in. It's going to be delicious. We're going to top it with some of these green onions as well. And then we are going to go ahead and take three pieces of our cooked bacon. It is three slices of bacon per wedge salad. The recipe makes two salads. So I'm going to go ahead and put three slices crumbled up on my salad and then I'll do the other three for my husband. And then I have one hard boiled egg and my little handy egg slicer here. And I'm going to go ahead and slice that egg. And that is going to go on top as well. Oh, this looks so good, you guys. I probably could just have this for dinner. I mean, it looks that amazing and delicious. So there's our wedge salad and the last step is to add some dressing but I'm going to go ahead and grab my breast of chicken. Then I'll top it with half of the dressing because again, it makes two servings and I'll be back to show you dinner and give you the smart points. So here is dinner. So there's that wedge salad. It looks delicious. That's a ton of dressing, which is super exciting. Some bacon eggs. So you have a little bit of protein with your salad and then my breast of chicken. So my chicken is actually zero points and my wedge salad using non-fat Greek yogurt is six smart points. And that covers the dressing with the blue cheese, the bacon, the egg, all the things. So this is a six smart point dinner. For dessert tonight, I'm going to be having one of the Siggi 0% orange and ginger. I do have to eat these up. They, I think they expire today. So I'll have one today. I have one more left and I'll have that tomorrow. These yogurts are so good. They have wonderful ingredients, literally perfect ingredients. They're three smart points. And then I'm going to put just the tiniest bit of this birthday cake granola. I'm going to put one points worth, which is about a tablespoon, a little over a tablespoon. This is from Safe and Fair. It is delicious. Now it has decent ingredients. There are a couple of things. I think it has natural flavors, which is something that I don't really love to see. Yeah, it has natural flavor. But other than that, it's really good granola. So I'm going to go ahead and put about a tablespoon of that onto my yogurt. I do have this in my Amazon store. And the link for that is in the description box. So that's going to be four smart points for dessert and all I'm eating for the rest of today. Thank you so much for joining me on what I eat Wednesday. I hope you enjoyed seeing all of the food that I have throughout today. That dinner recipe was amazing. That marinade is on the Primal Kitchen website. And there is a 10% discount code down in the description box for the Primal Kitchen website. There's also a discount for the coffee over cardio.

Sure, what's up Dylan? How's it been acclimating to the new group that you're working with to the playbook and how have you found the first couple of days? It's been going well. The first few days have been smooth, enjoying getting a tan out here down in the south instead of being up in Fargo, so that's nice. But yeah, just learning the new playbook and stuff and getting this new system, it's been going well so far. Dylan, not only are you working on your tan, you're working in football again. Yes, you've been working after your one game last year, but how good does it feel to get back out on a football field and start working with your new teammates? It feels amazing. I mean, that's the way I felt getting to the senior bowl. Like you said, I only played one game in the fall, so that was just awesome. That was a fun experience. Overall, now I'm just getting back to work, getting to know my teammates, getting to know my coach and learning the playbook and stuff, and yeah, like you said, it's just been fun just because I only played one game last year. Harry? Dylan, so far making the jump from 1-AA to now playing in the NFL, has it been about what you thought it would be from a learning curve or has it been a little overwhelming at times? What's going on? No, not overwhelming. Yeah, there's a curve there in certain areas, not in all areas. I feel like I was pretty prepared by my coaches from NDSU, but obviously there's always new things to learn when you're going into a new offense and just technique wise what the coach wants you to do, going from coach to coach. So yeah, like I said, just trying my best to adapt and adjust to what they want me to do. Katie? Yeah, you mentioned how the transition, you know, as far as going from North Dakota State to here, they prepared you well, but how about from an analytical standpoint, like how much is that going to kind of get, not get in the way, but like make it a little more difficult to be violent, you know, play with this necessary speed? Yeah, obviously the better you know the playbook, the better you know the plays, the faster you're going to play. So it just comes down to mentally knowing the playbook and knowing all the play calls. There's going to be more terminology just because it's pro style football now and it's a little bit more than college. So you just got to learn all that stuff and I'm doing my best to do that and we're working towards that. I feel like I'm picking it up pretty well. And yeah, like you said, once you pick it all up, you'll be the player really fast and I no doubt that I'll get there. Ben Arthur? Hey Dylan, I think I saw you doing some like right guard stuff out there in addition to some right tackle just how comfortable, you know, are you, you know, maybe just moving inside if that's kind of what the Titans need from you? Yeah, pretty comfortable. I play a little left guard at the senior bull so just moving inside things that happen quicker and yeah there's different aspects to the game but overall I'm pretty comfortable with wherever they need to put me. Emily? Yeah Dylan, I'm curious how much communication are you in with the other draft picks before arriving at camp and just how good was it to see all of them in person and does it feel a little bit more real now? Yeah, for sure. Yeah, we texted and stuff and just saw each other and whatnot. We have a group chat they put together and yeah I communicated a little bit and then saw them all together at the hotel and yeah it was just good to meet my new teammates and stuff and see who I'm going forward with. Luke? Dylan, it looked like you guys were working pretty hard out there with Coach Carter today. What's been your relationship with him so far and what are some of the things that you all have focused on getting right as a group this week? Yeah, speed and violence is what he just said today. That's what's fresh in my head. He reminds me a lot of my first online coach that had in college is a fiery guy, brings a passion every single day. So yeah, it's a good relationship. I'm used to getting coached with guys like him. So yeah, it's good relationship. I look forward to building that moving forward and yeah, he's a fiery guy, brings passion every day. And Dylan, obviously it's a lot of preparation leading up to the opener. This is just the start but as you go into rookie camp with another day left, what did you hope to accomplish and how do you think things have gone so far? Yeah, my big goal was learning the playbook and everything. Ever since I got the iPad, I've been looking to just know the playbook inside and out trying to figure out all the calls and stuff because like we talked about earlier, if you don't know the calls you can't play fast. So that's my big goal going into rookie minicamp and then obviously taking in as many coaching points as possible. Dylan, what have the last couple weeks been like in terms of friends and acquaintances and their reaction to you being drafted and how many people think you're a millionaire right now? Yeah, yeah, it's nice just to celebrate with all my family and friends and all my community and stuff. I mean, I made an Instagram post about it. It truly took a village to get me here and yeah, I put in the hard work but a lot of people supported me doing it and yeah, they celebrated with me. It was super awesome. Definitely, they're all part of my journey and it's been very exciting for them and for me and yeah, we're not too focused on the money right now. I mean, it is what it is. We're just here to play football so. Rex Road? Yeah Dylan, now that you've been around and gone through the playbook somehow similar would you say this offense as to what you did in college? How would you describe the similarities and differences? Yeah, so basically the similarities would just be the mentality part just firing off the ball trying to be a hard run team or predominant run team and that's what they do here at Tennessee. That's what we did at NDSU but we're a lot of power scheme at NDSU and now we're I'd say more zone but yeah overall it's not too much of a difference. We're going to run the ball a lot. That's the biggest similarity. Dylan, I know Keith asked you guys to be pretty precise in some of those drills you're doing over there working by yourself. Would you learn about some of that stuff not only from playing your position but working as the scout guy for other people when they're doing their work? Yeah, yeah he's just coaching right now getting us fire off the ball do the techniques running our feet stuff like that and then when you're the scout guy you just learn how to be the defender you learn what the defender sees stuff like that so you can just see both sides of the ball both perspectives so you can make ultimately make your block as efficient as possible. Steve Layman. Dylan, you may not have a ton of time to get on the field before training camp comes on. How much do you just embrace this weekend to soak up everything you can and perhaps make a good first impression with your new coaching staff? Obviously a lot you just try and come out here every day and make an impression. Bravele talks about how we just make an impression on everybody that day and stuff like that so come out every day and just go out and give you best, make sure people remember you by the end of the day. Buck. Dylan from a technical standpoint is there any one thing that you're kind of focusing on that maybe you've done differently in the past at North Dakota State and that they're trying to get you to kind of workshop now that you're here with them in the pros? Yeah, like we talked about before our team don't seem a little bit different just footwork wise so just mainly just a little bit forward differences, nothing, nothing too major just working on that working with our coach partner coaches me and his coaching points and learning to adapt to that and adapt to what technique he wants me to use.

Here at Geniatek you have the best looking S905 quad-core ARM Cortex 853 HDMI stick. That's a nice looking one. So it's stable and ready for mass deployment. It's almost ready. We now have samples available for our customers now. We're sending out samples for this. And this is our ATV 195E. So the power comes through here. We have power cable from here. And this is actually for the IR remote. And this one actually we plan to use the Bluetooth remote control with it. So Bluetooth remote control? So then it goes in every direction in the room and it's nice like that. But you can't do IR. Like IR is switching the channel. What does it do? Just the normal IR control. So is it possible to open it up and see your PCB? So usually there are two screws holding it together? Yep. So only two screws. So can you describe what we see here? Actually what you see is that's the S905 chip set. We have a Wi-Fi module here. It's actually you have an AC Wi-Fi and then we have the DDL. Yeah it's still dual band and supports Bluetooth. And then we have the USB. This is the USB OTG. So you can plug in other devices here. Maybe like a USB drive or a game pack or whatever. This is the power. This is what I said. This is for the IR remote if you use the normal IR remote you need an extender here. To receive the signal because this one will be hiding behind the television. This is the smallest 64-bit ARM PC stick. This is the smallest design for our 64-bit quad core ever made. So that's awesome. And how is the heat and everything? Heat is okay we have a pretty good cooling design. You can see we have lots of holes here to do the airflow to make sure that it can go over the heat and then we have this aluminum casing to better reduce to expand the heat. So you might feel some warm here but you will never be too hot to touch. So it's super stable ready and then you would have your usual Android UI on this? Yeah we have a normal UI on it and this runs on Android 5.1.2. Nice so compared to a big box it saves a little bit of cost right? Yeah it's a bit cheaper than a box and it saves space and just normal use it should be enough than a box.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, product managers and product enthusiasts all. My name's Will Perkins and I'm a product manager at Deliveroo. I'm delighted to be here with you today. Alas, I speak to you over the airwaves, but I hope one day to meet you in person at a product school event or something similar. I'm truly humbled to be able to address you today and steal, I hope, just 20 minutes of your time to talk to you a little bit about how I think about effectively using data, particularly when it comes to you in a form where you may not necessarily be familiar with it and is perhaps presented to you by stakeholders or a third party. So, without further ado, let me take you back to the 1970s Britain where the radical fringe of left-wing political thinking was dominated by the Labour firebrand MP and pipe-smoking aficionado, Tony Ben. Skeptical of those in power, he formulated his famous five questions to ask those with it in order to get to the truth about how they intended to wield that power. What power have you got? Where did you get it from? And whose interest do you use it? To whom are you accountable? And how do we get rid of you? This, he believed, would tear away the veils of obscuration and get down to the truth of the matter. Now, as product managers, we are also interested in the truth. In order to make good, well-reasoned, rational decisions, we need to have a reliable understanding of what is going on the real world and how our products interact with it. And excellent, and some might say, the best reflection of that real world is data. But data is merely a tool, and like all tools, must be wielded skillfully and to a purpose. We must understand its abilities and limitations. It's also not a Swiss army knife. To achieve our goals, it needs to be used in conjunction with other tools in our toolbox. So like an operatic conductor, product managers must pool together the various sections of the orchestra to create that rich soundscape and create that picture. Data may be playing first violin in our orchestra, but it needs the support of the others to really hit those virtuoso high notes. So as Tony Ben interrogated political power to find truth, so can we with our data. Why don't we take Ben's five question framework for defining truth and create our own that we can use to make the most out of our data and ensure we are making the right decisions for our products? I want to know what motivates the collection, processing and presentation of a dataset. I want to know where the metrics I'm looking at are actually the ones I care about and are the right thing to be measuring. I want to know how the data's been generated. Is it high or low integrity? And once I'm happy with that, I want to know how I can validate that data. Ask whether it's really telling me what I think it is. And finally, I must say I'm not quite as much of a revolutionary as I would tell me. So I'll take his final question and turn it on its head. If somebody's interested in using data to inform their decision-making, then how do we get them on board as product managers? Now, I'm not sure you often hear is that the data doesn't lie, but think about that for a minute. Think about the data you were asking me to buy on a daily basis outside of your work. Generally, I find it's an advertising, either trying to sell you a product or a political idea, perhaps. In this context, one could be forgiven for thinking it does nothing but lie. The data doesn't lie, it's a nice sentiment. And I get it, it's inanimate and human interaction is required before it means anything. But frankly, to take this phrase at face value is a little naive. And the one thing that product managers cannot be is naive. We've got to be sharp. We've got to understand what we're talking about. And so we've got to be skeptical about any information we're used to make those decisions. Because ultimately we and we alone are accountable for those decisions. No one else, and we certainly cannot blame the data we're using. Data can be wrong, it can be misinterpreted, and yet on occasion it can be used to lie. Now please don't see this as cynical or dismissive of it. I think skepticism is healthy. Questioning our assumptions will help us to better understand what is true and what isn't. It will help us avoid blunder, improve the quality of our decision-making and ultimately will make us better product managers. So then let's get stuck in with question one. What is the motivation? Let's pick up that thread again of where we see data in our day-to-day lives outside the world of product management if such a thing does exist. We mentioned that people use data to try and sell us things. And often we won't even notice or recognize that data is being used. Now apparently it's one of those rules of the internet that one must have cats in their presentation. Now I don't usually go into these sort of things but rules is rules. So here we are. I don't know if any of you remember this classic, I guess 80s or 90s whiskers advert campaign for cat food. Eight out of 10 owners who expressed a preference said their cat preferred whiskers. I know it's a bit of a mouthful, isn't it? But this advert has some fairly compelling data in it. So it must be true. And therefore we should all go out and buy this product. Well, I don't know if you know anything like me but when I see things like this I have to go have a bit of a lie down in a dark room because my product manager brain just goes off the wall with it a little bit. What does this mean? You ask 10 people and eight of them said so or 80% of 10,000 people said it. And who are these people? Do they often present their cat with a selection of dishes for their supper? And then what do they prefer it to? Do they prefer it to a succulent roast chicken or perhaps going hungry? What about the owners who didn't express a preference? What do they think? In this case, I'm skeptical. This is obviously about selling as a product and we have no way of knowing whether it's true or not. And yet, and yet there's a bit of me that still just nods along and says, okay, next time the cat's hungry, I'll go and buy the whiskers. You know, it's effective. It taps into our psyche somehow and advertiser wouldn't do it otherwise. We face this type of thing as product managers in our jobs. People will regularly approach us with ideas for things they want us to build and a great way to sell that idea is supporting it with data, which frankly is brilliant, far better than doing it out and we should wholeheartedly encourage it. But it's totally natural for them to want to make that data as compelling as possible. It's their job. But it's also our job as product managers to understand why they are showing us this data. Unlike in an advert, we have the opportunity to put our skepticism into practice. We can question what their motivations are for presenting their data. Through this, we can understand why that data has been presented in the way it has. What is present in it? What is missing? What assumptions have we made? We could even do another whole video on this, a subsection of 20 questions to ask when you're thinking about the motivation for things. But that's for another time and another place. This is also our first opportunity to understand whether we're looking at the right data and the right metrics, both in order to understand the problem and also to measure the impact, which provides with quite a nice segue into question two. Are these the right metrics? So join me as we venture further back in time from the 1970s to 1914, World War I and Europe as a flame as the major European powers confront each other on the fields of northern France. In the decades since the last major European war, military technology had taken great strides forwards, but the tactics and use would be recognized by a soldier fighting in those same fields a century earlier at the Battle of Waterloo. Officers wore white gloves and ostrich plumes in their hats whilst leading troops. The mounted cavalry charge was still a common sight in the battlefields. Soldiers of all nations went into battle and were in cloth headwear. Even the rather satisfyingly named German Picklehalber with its distinctive brass spike and crest on the front were just made of a rather thin leather and provide little ballistic protection. As the machine gun made surface war for impossible, trenches were dug deep into the ground to provide cover. Artillery bombardment then became the modus operandi for all armies. Now, when artillery shell bursts, it would blow up into the air huge amounts of earth, rubble and rocks that would then rain down on those sheltering in the trenches. Military commanders noticed that this was resulting in a number of soldiers being taken back to aid stations with head injuries increasing rather dramatically. Now, British commandant in particular had picked up on this as a good metric to try and address. Field Marshal, the Earl Hague then will play the role of our product manager here. He took measures to reduce the number of head injuries sustained by his troops by introducing the steel helmet smartly modeled by the chap here on the left, the Mark I Brody helmet that's called. This is a very good example of product design. It's protective, has a nice rim to shield the eye, to shield the eye from the sun and on the back of the neck from anything falling behind you. It's also got a sort of rather jaunty aesthetic which soldiers of all times rather appreciate. But interestingly and rather alarmingly, once these helmets were introduced, the rate of head injuries actually increased and increased dramatically. Now, why was this? One theory was that the added feeling of safety that the helmet provides led to soldiers acting more recklessly, taking more risks, sticking their head above the parapet where before they might not have. Yes, I suppose this is a viable hypothesis but it's based on an incomplete understanding of the data set. Head injuries per thousand is not the only metric that is important here. The most important metric, particularly for those actually having to wear the helmets is the rate of death. Yes, the head wounds increased but only because soldiers who would otherwise have been killed by shrapnel were instead only sustaining injuries. So here our product manager I found a good metric that got him onto the target but he needed to go one level deeper in his understanding to get to where he actually needed to be. I even think about in terms of prospecting for gold. You find traces of the precious metal on the surface and in streams but one needs to dig deep underground to find that main gold steam. So we think we have our metrics we want to measure and move. Well, before we get too excited we need to think about how reliable this data is. And one way to do that is to think about how it's been generated. We must remember that data doesn't emerge out of the ether, pristine and incorruptible. Like I can think of it like the body of one of those preserved saints in a Venetian church that has said sort of waff the scent of flowers even after centuries in the tomb. Instead we must recognize that at some point somewhere somebody has written a bit of code that creates this data based on a set of assumptions valid at the time and to the best of their knowledge available. Knowledge which may have since developed and changed. Thinking of this data, think of data in this way I find helpful. It is the work of human hands and as such is susceptible to all the failings of human endeavor. Continuous iteration and development can improve the integrity of data but it can also result in errors and misunderstandings get an institutionalized. We should be mindful of this and if we aren't familiar with the data we should check it. Honestly, I cannot tell you the number of times I have been confused by naming conventions thinking that one metric was one thing when in fact it was measuring something completely different. That data was generally created by your user's interaction with a product. When someone presses a button on your app or on your website, it fires an event and then builds up a data set. So again, you need to understand the motivations of your users when they're engaging with your product in order to gauge the integrity of that data set. Let's look at two examples. Web traffic is fairly reliable. You know when someone has landed on your webpage and there's generally little room for error or motivation for misuse. But even here, you may find a deliberate denial of service attack on your website can make it look like your site is extremely popular when in fact it's a malign actor trying to bring it down. And at the other end of the spectrum, a common source of data for us PNs comes from customer support. Now I think this is generally an invaluable way of understanding the pain points of our products. But just remember that often this data is generated through the manual tagging of issues by agents who have to interpret the reasons for the contact. Generally this is fine, but sometimes it could create distortions as agents try to squeeze issues that aren't catered for into the existing categories. My top tip here is that if your most common category is other, then you need to be very, very careful with how you use that data. Also, if you have anything gamified in your product, you've got to be careful. Somebody very worldly wise once said to me, if you create a game and players are gonna play it and people play to win, even if that means cheating, users will do what they need to do in order to achieve their goals. I think a great example of this, and I think a truly awesome way of addressing it is through the dating app Tinder where one arranges romantic liaisons with other like-minded people in their local area. Now, Tinder saw that people didn't necessarily want to be restricted to their local area. They wanted to search far and wide for their sweetheart. And so people began to mock their location data in order to check out potential dates in other areas. Here, users were purposefully creating incorrect and misleading data in order to achieve their goals. Now, if anyone's ever engaged with this sort of thing, location mocking is pretty difficult to stop. And so rather than trying to stop this outright, I think whoever the PM was at the time had a brilliant idea to not just embrace it but make it a premium feature, giving people the ability to search anywhere they wanted. It was understanding how the data was generated, recognizing the anomalies in it and pairing that with the knowledge of the motivations of the user that they found a really, really innovative way to monetize their product. So to our next question then, how can it be validated? For those non-plane spotters and people listening on audio, we're looking at the cockpit of a 787 Dreamliner, one of the most advanced aircraft in the world. Now, it's very, very possible to fly this plane using the data from purely the instruments. And in fact, much of the time, the aircraft can fly itself on nothing but the data. But not everyone is flying a Dreamliner. Most of us product managers are working startups or scale-ups where the cockpit perhaps looks something more akin to this. Now, one could possibly fly this just by looking at the dials with a map encompassed on your lap. But I think it's a good idea here to actually take a look out the window and see what's going on around you. To perhaps push this analogy one step beyond its limit, a lot of the time in product development, we don't even get the plane to start flying. We have to throw ourselves off the cliff and build the plane on the way down. This includes conceptualizing and discovering the metrics that we're going to use before we even build the instrumentation to measure them. Sometimes we have no idea what we should be measuring. And there are infinite number of things that we could measure out there. I think it's here that user research or customer insights or just your knowledge of the user really comes into play. Where you don't know what you should be measuring, user research can provide you those insights and tell you what is important. If you find yourself lacking data, it can provide you with a good read on what you should do next. Even if you're flying that Dreamliner, it's a good idea to have a look out the window every now and again and just validate the data. Make sure it's really telling you what you think it is. So always look out the window, ask yourself, how can you validate data with user insights? And on the flip side, how can you quantify user insights with data? Now, if you're perhaps indulging for a moment longer on the subject, I might take a bit further. I've spoken a bit about how data is a reflection of the real world, but this is really sloppy use of my language because data is not a reflection. It's not a true if reversed image of the world. It's more of a technical drawing that can have an incredible amount of detail, but lacks the color and life of the real world. Counter to this though, user insights is more in the style of an impressionist painting, a Monet or a Cezanne, creating a vivid image of the world. But again, it's very difficult to measure anything on one of these paintings. One wouldn't necessarily want to build a structure from them, but nor would anyone want to live in a schematic. The two complement each other very well because they opposite sides of the same coin. And when you combine them both, you can create a thing that is beautiful, but also practical. I see product user research and data analysis as the Holy Trinity, or for the more ancient Roman mind of you, the triumvirate of product discovery. Everything you need is in that golden triangle. My top tip here is to try and sit between your user researcher and your product analyst and keep up a conversation between you. I think that in the insights you gain from that conversation will really drive your product to new heights. And don't just take my word for it. This guy used to work in Amazon and he says a similar thing. He says the thing I've noticed is when the anecdotes and the data disagree, the anecdotes are usually right. There's something wrong with the way you're measuring it. Now, big Jeff isn't saying dismiss the data for anecdotes. He's literally saying be skeptical. If your gut is telling you something isn't right and as a PM you'll develop a great instinct for these things, then it probably isn't and you should check it. And so finally, where Ben wants to kick you out in the product management world, we're a bit more accommodating and friendly and we're gonna ask, how do we get you on board? I just think if somebody has shown the interest and the spark to take, identify a problem, take a bit of data, put it around it, maybe perhaps come outside hypotheses, we want to think about how we can get them into the community and encourage them to become product managers themselves. I think organizations like the product school do a brilliant job in training up people who want to be PMs. But I know that when I was coming into the industry, I found the first hurdle was even knowing what a PM was and it was a thing that I could do. So I would encourage you to take these people under your wing, teaching them about product management and product thinking. And if nothing else, you have a group of people around you in your business who you can rely on to probably do with excellent material for your product roadmap. So then to finish, love your data, but be skeptical of it, validate it, understand it, use it to its full potential and you will build awesome products. And finally, get out there and spread the good news of product management. Thank you very much.

from York, it's, that's this engineer. Hey everybody, welcome to Asken Engineer. It's me, Lady Aida, with me, Mr. Lady Aida on Camera Control. It's that time of year, we're wrapping up the year, we're kind of sliding in to the end of 2021. We still got plenty of cool stuff to show you on this Asken Engineer show, next hour full of hacking, making, software engineering, coding, videoing and more. We're broadcasting here from the Aida Food Factory in downtown Manhattan. We're not wearing masks because nobody else is around. We're keeping it safe, but at this moment, we're the only two people here. Yeah, I have to do those announcements to make sure we're setting a good example, but also we like being transparent, telling everybody how we're running this thing here in New York City. All right, so why don't we kick it off, Mr. Lady Aida? Tell them what's on tonight's show. On tonight's show, the code is resurrections. And the reason why is, so as soon as we're done with the show tonight, we're gonna go and watch the matrix for resurrections. So that's the code. It'll help me remember what date it is and stuff like that. So that's the code. Temporate that off in Aida Forest or all the way up to 11.59 p.m. Cause I can stay up late tonight. Watch the matrix. At Aida Food Live Series, the shows are gonna be talking about what we do during the week here in More and Clean Show and Tell. Time travel around the world of makers, hackers, artists, engineers, news going on in the maker world, engineering world and more. Help want it. We're gonna stop by the Aida Fruit Jobs Board, jobs.adafruit.com where you can post your skills or if you're a company, hire the best people in the world cause that's where they're hanging out. At Aida Fruit site. Got some main New York City factory footage, some 3D printing, including a cool speedup video. We got INMPI brought to you by Digikeon Aida Fruit. We got a cool one this week from TDK. Got some new products. Got some top secret. We're gonna answer your questions. That's right. We do that on Discord. AidaFruit.it slash Discord. We can join all 32,000 of us. We can hang out all the time. All that and more on, you guessed it. Ask an engineer. Okay, Lady Aida. So let's do one little quick thing and then we'll get into paying the bills and more. So we do these every couple of weeks or so. The spike is back here in New York City. So back in October, we purchased a ton of rabbit tests because we're like, hey, this isn't over. There's gonna be a spike probably right before Christmas. And here we are. It's not even fun to predict a future anymore cause you're just trapped in this glass ball. So we've been able to get our team members' rapid tests while they're waiting for some of the longer line tests here in New York now cause it's back to that. So far so good. We haven't had anyone test positive. There are some people in the external circles like households of family members or friends or they go to an event and something comes up. So it shields up again. We've been wearing masks even before all of this. We decided, let's just do that anyways. All the team members are vaccinated. Everyone has paid time off for boosters and more. Also flu shots. And so that's how we've been running stuff and it's been working out for us. But I understand not every company is the same as Adafrit. So in New York, some of the things that we decided to do was we had three events we can go to. We decided to only go to one. It was our visit to her folks because out of all the things that was the only one that was important to us. So we just minimized our risk profile. And who cares? There's things that we could do later for sure but seeing friends, family, especially when it was a trip that we needed to take. We haven't taken it for a long time. That was the one when we said, well, this is how we'll spend our risk. And we have COVID tests and everything. We're all boosted. So that's what we're doing. That's what a lot of the folks at Adafrit are doing. So if you ever have any questions about how we're doing stuff, you can always email me ptadafrit. We have no problems sharing all the stuff we're doing because we're still here, still standing. Speaking of, if you want to purchase stuff that will go directly into our employees paychecks because we're about to do our profit sharing bonus for the end of the year, you can also get free stuff. Lady, what do they get for free when they're shopping on the Adafrit site? I'm glad you asked. We still have our pink feather promotion going on. If you order $99 or more, you get a free pink feather RP2040. This adorable board is just like our RP2040 feather, but it's in pink. How can you not love that? 149 or more, you get a free STEM IQT board. We have a couple of different ones in stock. Depending on whether you, if you make an account we'll make sure to send you a different one each time. Otherwise it's random and we've got sensors and controllers and accelerometers and drivers and ADCs and stuff like that. UPS Ground Shipping is free for orders of $199 or more. That's free Ground Shipping in the Consulate of the United States, $299 or more. You get a free Circuit Playground Bluefruit. We're still waiting on our Circuit Playground Express Parts to come in to finish making another batch of CPXs. But in the meantime, we'll give you a CPB instead, which has Bluetooth though energy and runs the NRF 52-840, great for wireless projects. Okay, and don't forget the holiday schedule is here. Go to Adafruit.com. It's all over the site, constantly, always, forever. Basically, it's December 22nd. Good luck getting anything anytime before Christmas. But please continue placing your orders. We'll let you know exactly when anything's gonna ship. Just make sure you know that it probably will not get there by Saturday. You could try, but probably not, and it's something that's outside our control. So we do a live series of shows. We just did show and tell. We had some Adafruit folks. We had Tim from the guy. We had Liz. We had some retro stuff and more. And then Jepler showed a project, Birdbeth, IOT, Birdbeth. And then we also discussed teapots that were rendered. So do check this out. And non-rendered. And non-rendered. And then I was talking about our idea. Sometimes I have to take the blame and or credit for some of these. I thought we could call IOT things Wicked Smart because we just got back from Boston. And instead of calling it Machine Learning or AI or Computing on the Edge or TinyML, we would just say, oh, that thing over there is Wicked Smart. What do you think? Yeah, okay. All right, well, you could tune in for all this excitement and my ideas and more on Sundays. You have great ideas. Yeah, on Sundays, we do Desk of Lady Eta. Lady Eta, we do part one and part two. What was part one of Desk of Lady Eta on? Oh, sorry, we didn't do it on Sunday. We did it on Monday. On Monday, because we were on time on Sunday. So Desk of Lady Eta, I showed off the final rev, rev C of the TFT ESP32 S2 Feather, fixed a couple of things with the power supply and showed off my power analysis test where I go into ultra low power mode, light sleep mode and normal mode. So showing that I can get down to 80 microamps of current. Okay, then we do a segment called The Great Search and this is kind of the more popular thing we do now because there is a part shortage and you showed how to find parts. What did you try to find this week? Okay, what I found this week was for the Scorpio board, I needed an eight channel three to five volt logic level shifter and I wanted one that had TTL inputs. I wanted one that was very, very small and so I showed how when I was designing the board, how I specced and located the correct logic level shifter. And hopefully I'll get the board put together and I'll make sure it works. Picking out TTL logic is a couple tips and tricks so I talked about this. Okay, and folks should stay tuned to the top secret because we have a new board announcement that we're gonna show off, Scorpio. Yes. It's a new board. Yes. Man of Fruit, okay. Yes. JP's product pick of the week on Ohioatis this week because JP is on vacation. So do tune in to JP show next week and or the week after, check your local listings as they say in the biz. But we have a little neat snippet. Gonna play these back to back. One is from JP's workshop show. This is a macro pad thing that he was working on and then I'm gonna show the latest Parsec. That's where we show some cool circuit Python based projects code and more that JP shares with the community. So I'll see you on the other side. First up JP workshop highlight and then circuit Python and Parsec. But the circuit Python Parsec, I wanted to show you how you can use pretty much any GPIO pin on your microcontroller as a ground pin. Why would you wanna do this? Well, sometimes you wanna plug things in. Like you can see here, I've got a couple of LEDs with resistors plugged in and they're on either side of a little cutie pie board. There's only one pin marked as ground on this. Point at it right there. That's the ground pin. Well, you can't share that too easily with a couple of these leads if you're going into a breadboard. Great, but sometimes you just have header pins on your board and you wanna plug things into them. What you can do in this case, if you don't wanna kinda crowd things in, is pick another available GPIO pin and set it at a low value, which essentially acts as a ground. Now, this isn't as high a current ground as the ground ground pin. So you only wanna use this for things like LEDs and buttons and switches, nothing higher current. But it works really easily and really well. So watch this. You can see here in my code, I'm setting up by importing library for board and digital IO. Then for this red LED, I'm simply setting the pin that the high side is plugged into, which in this case I'm plugging into the RX pin. So I set that to be a digital in-out pin with the direction set to output and I set the value to true. It lights it up because it's setting that pin high. So we're getting three volts out of that roughly. On this other side, what I'm gonna do is same sort of thing. I'll set up one of the pins, in this case the TX pin, for the high side of the LED, the positive side. But then to fake a ground, what I'm doing here is I've created a variable called fake ground pin. And here I'm setting up a digital pin. It's a GPIO pin A1 in this case. And I'm setting its direction to output, but then I'm keeping its value low. I'm setting the value to false. This essentially acts as a ground pin. So if I hit save now, what you can see is our green LED lights up as well, even though I didn't have to clutter things up by using a single ground pin. And so that is how you can fake a ground pin on your microcontroller inside of circuit Python. And this has been your circuit Python parsec. Okay, on Friday, there's not gonna be a deep dive with Scott. However, Fummy Guy Tim is going to be taking over that slot for this Friday and possibly next Friday. So stay tuned to our Twitter's, to our YouTube, to our Twitch, to our LinkedIn, to our Facebook, our Meta. And let's see what else. I think it's live on Twitter as well. Probably a couple of places, but do check that out. Time travel. Let's look around and we're all makers, hackers, artists, engineers, news that's going on and stuff that we have to deal with on a regular basis that, you know, I just gotta deal with sometimes. So as a service to the entire community out there on Adafruit.com slash NFT, by the way, we don't do NFTs. These are, it's a gallery of nice friendly t-shirts. We have text for those of you who do things like public speaking or those of you who do live streams or those of you who have to sign photo releases for all sorts of stuff. And the reason why we have this text up there is because there's lots of times where someone will take your photo or have you in a video and then all of a sudden you wake up and now you're in NFT. And we knew this was coming and for years, even before there was such thing as NFT or it wasn't even called NFTs, we always make sure that we had our intellectual property lawyers look at anything that our Lady Aida or me or a team has to sign. And so basically we put the text up. So Adafruit.com slash NFT scroll down to the bottom past the amazing t-shirts that our team has that they collect and take a look. The short version or I'll just read it. Speaker specifically reserves her rights of publicity and privacy and expressly prohibits the use of her name, image and likeness apart from use in the live session and works created promote the live session videographer, photographer, streamer, may not license the content for recent advertising or marketing of a unrelated party's products and services without prior written consent. So basically it's just like, hey, just talk to us before you do something. And no matter what we do, so we got blamed for, I'll get to that in a second. I got blamed for Radio Shack. We didn't buy Radio Shack. I get blamed for everything because why not women online blame her? Super fun. Yeah, super fun. And that's what a lot of dudes are doing. So anyways, we have this and instead of just being mean and crummy and trying to dunk on people, we're trying to do a helpful thing, which is this is text that we use. It's not legal advice, but it's text we use this will probably save you later. So I've been reaching out to some of the folks who are a little surprised to find themselves for sale for ETH and so far so good. It's been working out. Next up, this is from Q. Q's in Texas. She just moved from New York to Texas and she sent me this thing. She just wants to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Adafruit, this quality is this friend of mine. So I just wanted to put this on her. I said, hey, can I put this on our show? And she said, yeah. Next up, adafruit.com forward slash cats of engineering and now has an RSS feed. Yes. Because that's what we do. Really excited about that. If you need help with that, you can email me ptadafruit.com. This is a screenshot of my newsreader for my Mac that I happen to like, which is NetNewsWire. Reminder, we did not buy Radio Shack. We have nothing to do with RadioShack.com. Please stop blaming us online for anything to do with Radio Shack. We have nothing to do with it. We interview the new owners of Radio Shack every couple of years because there's always new owners of Radio Shack every couple of years. This is my sign. From this sign that we bought off the side of a Radio Shack that got scrapped because Radio Shack went out of business a few years ago and it says, heck, and that's the back of my desk. So anyways, nothing to do with it. Cool sign. Didn't buy them. Stop blaming us. Y'all are jerks. You're mean guys online. Stop it. Move on. Okay. This is from 1999, Lady. We're gonna get this running. This is your, you have a text adventure that you made. For 6.001. For your MIT. It was the final project for freshman computer science class. I wrote a text adventure, which was the assignment was to write a text adventure. Little did they know that I'd always wanted to write a text adventure. So I went all out and I wrote in text adventure and we're gonna post the files up but they're in MIT scheme, which turns out that. You have to figure out how to get that running. We have to get that running and you think, well, why don't you just run an MIT scheme that's available from glue? Turns out whatever changes they made to Athena's scheme is slightly different. We're getting there. We got it to load and now we have to kind of, there's some things about like whether a list is empty when it's empty or it doesn't exist. I don't know. I think it's cool that this is like Lady at Archeology. We're all be able to. Some of the oldest code I've written. Really? I mean, I think I could dig up some older code. But this is, you know, I unfortunately lost a hard drive that had a lot of, I mean, before Dropbox, you know, it's like when you lost a hard drive, you really did lose everything. But very early code, but it's actually a funny game. Yeah. I'm going to upload it to archive.arch. I've not had luck with archive that are recently putting stuff on there, but we'll see. I will keep trying. Next up. So AdaBox, one year of AdaBox is possible for you to get. We have less than 50 slots open. I get an email notification. Don't forget it is AdaBox edition. So that means the holiday edition, which we would normally try to get out by, you know, Christmas is going to be shipping during a season. This season happens to be winter. This will be out January, February. Please, please, please get it out. There's going to be none left. It's the closest thing to like back orders that we have. It'll be for a new product. It'll be really cool. And I think it's going to be one of our best ones yet. AdaBox.com. Okay. Help Wanted. We are putting everybody back to work in this country. We're trying. Help Wanted, jobs.adafruit.com. There are three jobs on the Jobs Ward. There is an audio circuit. There's remote instructor for summer engineering program. That's with Bluestamp engineering. There is open source circuit pipeline driver for NFC chip. Must include point to two point communications. And another remote instructor position, which is for a summer engineering program. Do check this out jobs.adafruit.com. We moderate all of them. We look at all of them. We make sure they're not scammy or sketchy or whatever's. And so do check it out or post your skills. If you're looking to make some more coin. And I mean, that is a physical money thing, not the other stuff. Okay. Let's do some Python on hardware news, lady. Mm-hmm. Okay. This week, I'm going to talk about the podcasts that the team did with Tom's hardware soon. I thought this was kind of cool. This is a retro RPN calculator emulator using the PyPortal Titanium with Circuit Python. And the user interface is mostly done. You're going to be able to see it later in action. But I like people build in their own calculators. It's kind of like gradient backgrounds, Q. Yeah. It's the steps of building all of your own equipment. Topping your tree with a glowing, can you say this word? No. Rambi. Because he did a Dickey Heed one. Yeah. Anyways, Powered by Circuit Python. Okay. We have some guides on upgrading to the latest version of Raspberry Pi Buster. Sorry, from Buster to Bullseye. We have some LEGO plates that we've posted. We have a call for Moo translations. Do check that also. Also, breaking news. There's a new version of Moo. It's available for code with .moo. Next week, the guest editor, I'm back. The restraining order is over. No, I'm back. I'm back to doing the newsletter. Originally, it was here. No, Ann's been doing it. Yeah, Ann's been doing a great job. I promise you it's going to. So if you all know me, I did Hackaday, and I did Engadget, and I did magazine, a lot of online offering. And if you like black and white photos, if you like that style, if you like lowercase, if you like things a little edgy, a little artsy, a little gothy, you might like this newsletter that I'm doing. Yeah, the gothiest, the edgiest, the lowercase-iest. Yeah. And if you want a preview of some of the stuff, you can go to my personal Twitter, twitter.com, forward slash peterone. And you can look at drawings or photos. Parrots. And you can say mean things to me and dunk on me. Or you can enjoy the art. Or you can enjoy the art. Look at birds. And look at birds and some medical tests and stuff like that's kind of fun. I got some x-rays. Everything's fine. So next up, what I did want to show and talk about is keyboard. Wink, wink. Yeah, tick, tick, tick, tick. So keyboard is what we're calling a whole series of keyboard-based products from Adafruit. So we have a KB2040 and it's the pro-micro form factor. And the kind folks at Tom's Hardware had Dan and Jeff and Scott on the show that they do. So Lady Aida, what's the big deal about this pro-micro keyboard thing? Well, the RP2040. Why is it a pig? Because it's a key, but we don't want to call it a key because a lot of people can say key. So we want to call it a keyboard, which is a little pig with a key as its nose. The KB2040 is an RP2040-based board. So it's using this extremely fast, very powerful chip from the Raspberry Pi Foundation, their first microcontroller. And we put it into a pro-micro form factor with 20 GPIO pins. We break out D plus and D minus as well. So you can also use it for advanced USB configurations. And the idea here is that you can use this design and existing macro pads and keyboards and upgrade it to use circuit Python or micro Python or Arduino. And it's a big upgrade from the 32U4 that a lot of people use for keyboards. It runs out of memory very easily. The 32U4 really only has 2K of RAM, 32K of flash, whereas this chip has eight megabytes of flash and 256 or 264K of RAM. So a ton of memory and it's very fast, like 133 megahertz dual core. Right now there isn't QMK support, but I think it's coming. I think people are working on QMK support because so many people are building RP2040-based boards. And also, catch the whole thing. I can dence this down to like 20 seconds, but it's about 30 minutes long and the entire crew is there and you'll be able to learn all about this and then more, it's a deep dive, as they say in the biz. Oh, it's also a dollar less. I wanted to make the QMK 2040 cheaper than the micro, the pro micro, but it has all the stuff you want, USB-C and. And then I say our big news for the week in the world of circuit Python and more is Pileap app is available in the App Store. Congratulations Trevor and Antonia and Scott and Kenny and Marcos and everyone who's been working on this. We have a guide, we have a blog post. It's in the App Store and I'll get to one little note in a second. When you go, you can open it up, you could see all of the screenshots, you can get the description and more. Will we have an Android version? Yes, don't be mean about it. Every single time we have an Android version and then only two people download the Android version of something, but leading all the way up until that, they're just mean. So stop doing that. It doesn't help the other Android users. So anyways, we're doing this one first. Expect an Android version down the road, but we also have other ways to get things on Bluetooth hardware. You also use it where you can use. From Android. From web browser. Yeah, from all sorts of things. So we're going to make sure you're able to do everything all the time, everywhere from multiple devices. That's kind of our jam, but there's this weird thing that comes up every single time. No matter what app we do, we released an Android version and someone said, do you have an Android version? I'm just like, are you kidding me? It's an Android version. And they're like, oh yeah, sorry. I'm just used to asking that. Please don't do that. So that's everything in the world of Python on hardware. We deliver these to your inbox every single week. Get the newsletter that I'm going to be writing very soon. You can go to AdafruitDaily.com. Search around. We're the only site that I know of at this point that respects, do not track. It's a separate website for newsletters. You can't get spam from us. You can try, but we're just not going to do it. And you go to AdafruitDaily, not Adafruit.com to get any of our newsletters. We wanted something completely separate so no one could ever say, y'all are spamming me. We just don't have those pop-ups, don't do anything. Let's Python on hardware news this week. That's what we're doing. Okay, lady, we're an open source hardware company. I think Ann posted this up or is posting it up. It is the impact of open source software and hardware on the technological independence, dependiveness and innovation in the EU economy. Check it out. It's a PDF, you can download it, you can share it, you can read the summary and more. Don't know if they're doing one for the US yet, but this is EU, so do check it out and you can see what's going on with open source hardware and software and its impact in the EU. Speaking of, we have 2,601 guides. That's how I know we're an open source hardware company because we've got all these guides and code and stuff like that. Lady Eda, what is on the big board this week? Okay, we've got that guide for these, you saw a little video from JP on making an interface for doing color correction on images. So he showed how to plug together various STEMI QT boards to make a no solder control panel. We've also got a guide on, can you make the... Do you want? Well, I can't read the text. You want a bigger? Yeah, can you read that? The RGB matrix circuit Python guide, Jepler updated it. I think he added the RP2040 feather and RP, sorry, the RGB matrix feather wing to show how to use it. Or maybe it was the ESP32 S2 Metro with the shield, I don't remember, but we had another page. We've also got a guide on the Piley Bap. We do. We also have... Kenny started out the guide for the QT-Pi ESP32 S2. There's more to come. Kenny's on vacation, but we got some files up just because people are always asking for schematics and pinouts and files, so that's up there. Carter did a guide on making a DIY USB trinket that requires no soldering to make a DIY air quality monitor with humidity, temperature, biometric pressure and CO2. And then TAC wrote a quick guide on taking our NR52840 boards, whether that's a feather or a dongle, and turning it into a BLE sniffer. And you can install the firmware with UF2, which is super awesome, because you don't need to use a J-Tag or J-Link, J-Tag interface to load the firmware. You can just drag and drop it. There's a couple extra steps because the soft device needs to be updated as well, but he has written everything up for you. So if you have an old blue fruit feather and you wanna turn it into a sniffer, here's a tutorial on how to do that. Okay. And it wouldn't be a celebration of open source hardware without the place that makes it. Here, Adafruit, let's look at some factory footage. Hey, Dana. Yes. And it wouldn't be a main New York City factory footage without a time lapse from the Disney headquarters that it's gone from large to loud. That's its thing now. Initially it was just large, and now it's very loud. And then one other note, because I have to fill up our show with things so I can send links to people later. So we don't have hand models. Any hands that you see in any of our photos, it's people who work at Adafruit. Some of them have cool tattoos and scars and nails and all sorts of stuff. These are real people who really work here. Stop saying we have actors and hand models and no one really exists and birds aren't real and stuff like that. Okay, three printing. You want to do these back to back later, Dana? Yeah, let's do them back to back. Okay, we're going to do these back to back. We've got the cool project that Pedro did this week, and then we're going to do the speed up of the most recommended mask to wear now that'll keep you safe from everybody else. From variants and people who may have variants. Yes, so stay tuned for part one, which is the project, and then part two is the mask that everyone should print out and give it to their family and friends this holiday season. Hey, what's up, folks? In this project, we're making a visual light display with Neopixels. We designed a lamp with edgelet acrylic and added Neopixel LEDs. It looks like a frame by frame stop motion when each pixel is lit up one at a time. We thought it'd be fun to engrave some festive designs in different shapes. The acrylic panels are swappable so you can use this to make all sorts of creative animations. For this project, we have it powered by the Cutie Pie RP2040 running Circuit Python. It uses just a single strip of Neopixel LEDs with a total of eight quarter inch thick acrylic panels. We engrave some snowflakes and letters, but you can do all sorts of fun arts and graphics. For any Neopixel project, we like to use Circuit Python because it's easy to use the LED animation library. We strung together a few chase animations using the animation group module with each one having a different color. We set the timing to a quarter of a second so each panel has a little bit more time to be seen. The LED animation library makes trying out different settings really fast and easy. The LED strip is fitted into a 3D-printed holder with each LED fitting into a little cavity. Our 3D-printed holder keeps the LEDs isolated so the light doesn't leak into each other. The acrylic pieces feature tabs that are press-fitted into slots that are on a separate holder. They're placed directly over the LEDs so they're nicely edge lit. The parts are made with PLA filament and they can be printed without any support material. All you need to build this project is a strip of Neopixel LEDs in the QtiePie RP2040. The bottom cover features a built-in holder for the QtiePie and has special edges that snap-fit into the 3D-printed case. Each piece of quarter-inch thick acrylic features a 20-millimeter tab for slotting into the 3D-printed holder. The assembly is modular with the parts snap-fitting together. I designed the holders for the LED strip and acrylic to be parametrically driven. This means updating the pixel count will add or remove slots from the design so it's easily scalable. The CAD files are free to download. Links are in the description. We hope this inspires you to check out the QtiePie RP2040 in CircuitPython for your next light-up project. From everyone at Adafruit Industries, happy holidays and happy New Year. Don't forget on Wednesdays, learn how to make all this stuff and more. No Pedro. Okay, lady. It's almost time for, you guessed it. I NMPI, but first up, the code is Resurrections because it's matrix four tonight. That's why I'm gonna watch right after this. All right, let's do this. Ready? Yep. I NMPI. I NMPI, I brought you by DigiKey and Adafruit. Thank you, DigiKey. Every single week we show the latest, the greatest, the I on new product introductions this week. It's from TDK, lady. What is this week's NMPI? Okay, this week's I NMPI, like we mentioned, it's from TDK. We had them for their little sensor bugs so they're coming back. Do have one of the coolest logos. We see it in Times Square. The TDK sign is pretty sweet. This is, I wanted to make sure I get the part number right. The BCS4430B6, this is a series of ultra-thin, ultra-flexible solar cells for use with indoor electronics to power your IoT, your portable or wearable electronics, using- I look at the smart stuff. From lights inside building. So just what it looks like, these are amorphous cells and this one is I think like 44 millimeters by 30 millimeters, that's the name. And it's got six cells. You can even see all six cells one by one in this picture. And then it's super flexible and I'll show it on the overhead. Maybe I'll do that now before I get into it. Let's do it now. Okay, so this is the solar cell. So it's amorphous, so it's ultra-flexible and it's incredibly thin, it's 0.2 millimeters. It's basically a thin piece of paper and it feels about as thin as a thin piece of plastic or paper and on the back are these two points that you can connect to to make electrical contact. And even indoors, just with the fluorescent lights here, you can see it's lighting up this LED quite nicely. So this is extremely, extremely skinny and extremely flexible paper-like solar cell and it can be easily bonded or soldered into your project to give yourself some power, even from indoors. I mean, of course it'll work great outdoors but it's designed even to work with indoor lighting which is not that bright, to be honest. So this is the VCS series. They can make them in custom sizes and shapes but the goal of this one is just to make ultra-thin, ultra-light, one of the suggested use cases is like a credit card type thing, something so thin that could go into a wallet or it goes into a wearable, something that has to move around a lot so you can't use a fixed monocrystalline cell. This one will give you about 4.2 volts open circuits around 2.6 volts running circuit and operating current about 30 microamps of current. So yes, these are very, very small and thin. They don't give you a lot of current but depending on your circuit, you might be able to either charge up a super cap or use a buck-boost converter or whatever to convert that ultra-low amount of current into something usable. You can get these in custom sizes, even a circular size, customizable number of cells. So for your product, if you need a lot and you don't want to cut it down to size, of course you can cut this with scissors but let's say you're like, I want to come with a particular size, you can get them customized. And so what this reminded me of was when you had a solar calculator and I had one of these and they were great, I actually prefered it to the battery one because the battery would always die but with the solar one, you sometimes have to hold it up to light for a few seconds to kind of get the internal capacitor charged but I found that they worked quite well and that's the same idea here is that this is for ultra-low power electronics. It's gonna have to be designed to use a solar panel but of all the energy harvesting techniques that I've heard of, like piezoelectric or thermal, solar is kind of the most inexpensive, reliable and well understood. People who are always like, oh, I want to charge something based off of the motion of a person. It's like that's actually really hard to do and piezoelectric usually you have to press a lot harder than you think. Like it's not very comfortable with a solar. You know, it's trickle charging but there's always gonna be light around. So if you can work within the constraints of the low current, you're good to go. People who've never used solar panels, they're kind of weird because they're diodes running in reverse basically instead of an IV curve going the opposite way they go the positive way because there's positive power going out not going in and the operating curve does change with light levels. So this is a diagram from a linear tech MPPT controller and it's not for this panel but you can see the green line as you get more sunlight or ambient light you see the curve gets taller and taller and taller the how much current you can get out and then the blue line is the max power and so you notice that there was kind of a sweet spot called the max power point which is kind of at the tip of the curve just as it starts to sink down. So using a solar panel you can't just treat it as a voltage source or current source is kind of in the middle. You want to, it'll give you a voltage but as you draw more and more current the voltage will start to collapse. So what you wanna do is use just enough current that the voltage has started to collapse a little bit that'll give you the max power and so one thing to say is if you're gonna use these little solar cells you do have to design your circuitry and your power supply to take advantage of this and use it intelligently. This is the curbs for this particular panel you can see the different illumination levels based on lux and the voltage and current you can get and get out. One thing you can do is one just design your circuit to use under 30 microamps of current depending on what your circuit is like as a calculator you can design an ASIC to use less than that much power. Second thing is you can have it trickle charge a super cap or a primary or sorry secondary battery or a chargeable battery. It slowly, slowly trickle charges the battery capacitor when it gets to a certain voltage it turns on your circuit and then it runs that can be good for IoT where you know a little sensor or something lives in a room it only has to send the temperature or humidity data every 10, 15 minutes. So it slowly, slowly charges you know 30 microamps at a time charges up the super cap super cap gets to three volts or 3.5 volts whatever the circuit turns on depletes the capacitor while it's submitting that data or sending that data over a radio and then turns back off. Third option is to use something like this it's like a specialized chip it's gonna cost a little bit more but this is designed specifically for energy harvesting and is designed to use these ultra small ultra thin solar panels. You can't just use an everyday lipoly charger chip it has to be something that knows how to deal with again this IV curve where the max power point is as the voltage start to collapse and usually you set the max current or the max you know the cutoff voltage using resistors or capacitors on these chips and then they can charge up a battery for you or a super cap for you and they'll do it in a way that's a lot more efficient than just a plain trickle charger. Okay and in stock and good news there's 32 of these in stock and they're available on Digikey here's a short URL. Sorry there you go. And then the programmer. But very neat I do see I will say people who want to use who want to do IOT projects they want to make smart rooms solar panels really you know as long as you have the power supply designed for it they last decades they're very reliable they are you know they just work off of whatever light they've got just be aware that they'll give you a lot less current than you think whatever amount of current you think you're gonna get it's about a tenth of that but as long as you can work with that you're good to go. You sound like an advocate for big sun. I am. The lobbyist. The bigger sun. Big solar. Big lux. Okay so that's IONMPI I'm gonna do a couple of questions immediately afterwards then we're gonna go into new product cause there's a couple of questions that have something to do with this so we'll see you on the other side of this and that is this week's IONMPI. IONMPI. Okay I'm gonna add these questions real quick and then we're gonna do a new product so would you be able to recharge a small lipo with a solar cell like that and then how it would work with a tree ornament? You let the tree light to charge the ornament. I think that would work. Tree lights are really really dim you really want to have ambient lighting because it has to hit the whole front of the panel but yes you can just triple charge a small lipo. I think on a tree because a lot of people have it in front of a window. Yeah the window would be a good and then you charge up the things all throughout the day. Good option. That'd be kind of cool. Okay so let's remind everyone. Resurrections it's good cause we're gonna watch the matrix. Tonight let's do new products lady. Okay. Sing your song. It's time for new. It's time for new. New, new, new, new, new, new, new, new. Okay first up I'm gonna do my little bit which is go to Adafruit.com slash gift certificates cause it's probably too late to get that gift. Get a gift certificate it works. They never expire. We don't do anything weird. We don't harvest the email. We don't spam the person getting it. You can print out. We have like a print out that you can do. Get a gift certificate from Adafruit. It's great. Adafruit.com slash gift certificates. You really sell it there. Well it is. It is. It's just like what should I do? And a lot of people are like what do I get someone who likes electronic stuff? Like get them a gift certificate from Adafruit. Yeah. Let's kick off the new products with this. Okay we've got a felt carrying case. So this is I think designed for either a book or a keyboard. But you know what it fits really well? The Raspberry Pi 400. If you have a Pi 400 you know you want to keep it safe while you're moving it to and from school or a workshop. We have a zipper case but this felt case was inexpensive and works very well. It has a little a flexi strap piece and some nice felt that is you know it's not waterproof but it's water resistant. It's a nice case. It's nice and padded. It will keep your keyboard or your Raspberry Pi 400 nice and safe. Next up. We've got another Molex power cable pair. So you get a socket and a plug and they plug together. And I think all together it's 20 centimeters, 10 centimeters each. This one has eight connectors. And you know they just match up. You have you know right on one side and on the other pink, pink, yellow, yellow. Great whenever you have something that needs you know a little bit of current, a little bit of power and you want nice free hanging connectivity. I like these super fine pitches. 1.25 millimeter pitch. Yeah, these are nice. Okay and then next up we have a tour of boards that are somewhat related to each other. Sort of kinda first up. They're all similar but they're not the same. So this is the ESP32 S3 dev board with eight megabytes of flash. And I can't remember how much PS RAM. Take the part of page. I think eight, sorry, eight megabytes of flash, eight megabytes of PS RAM. So this is the most you can get with the S3. You get two USB ports, one native, one reprogramming, plugs into your breadboard or whatnot. And it's just a very powerful S3 board. The S3 is very new. So just be aware of that. It's, we're adding circuit path on support. I think Arduino support isn't there as of this video but it might come in over the next few weeks. So that's the S3, it's the biggest dev board. Now this is a C3 dev board. The ESP32 C3 is a risk five chip and so it has a lot fewer pins. I will warn you about that. This does have eight megabytes of flash. No PS RAM. The C3 does have Arduino support and ESP IDF. I don't know that it's supported in circuit Python. I don't think it's supported in micro Python either. We're not really planning on adding circuit Python support but there is Arduino support and it's risk five. If you want to play with risk five, this is kind of a great way to do so because you get like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with it. It's got the little USB serial uploading and debugging port and you get a couple GPIO pins. Again, not a lot of GPIO pins but nothing you can start experimenting and of course it's got wireless as well. All right, and then this is a giant T-shirt sized one that you actually wear. It looks like a T-shirt but this is the ESP32 Warroom DA. The DA stands for dual antenna. So this is an ESP32 Warroom. So it's the, not the S2, it doesn't have native USB. It's like this classic ESP32 but it has two antennas and it has the antenna selector built in already so what it's designed for is to always get good antenna performance even if your normal PCB antenna isn't aligned with the source because one antenna, if the signal happens to be perpendicular to it you're gonna get very low signal strength but if you have two antennas, you'll be perpendicular to one, you're gonna be right in line with the other. So you're gonna get really good signal strength. You're gonna have a much better time and it's basically for free. You just have two antennas and it'll select her. So it's a very inexpensive way to double the chances of having a good signal strength for your ESP32. It does have this funky shape though. So just you'll watch out that your PCB layout will work with this design but I think the antenna switchover is probably done transparently for you so you can just treat it like an ESP32 and get better signal strength for free. Okay, and then the star of the show tonight so I do lay data, our team, our community, our customers and everyone hanging out is brr brr brr brr brr brr. Yes, it's finally here, another QT pie, the third in our QT pie family, the ESP32 S2 QT pie which brings some, so much expressive this week. This is ESP32 S2 which is a single core Tensilika Wi-Fi processor. It's a lot like the ESP32 but it doesn't need a USB serial converter chip which means we can make it so small that it fits in something that's like small in the corner. This is the tiniest board ever. It's so small. So there's an ESP32 S2, there's a USB type C connector for uploading and powering. There's a stomach QT port so you can plug and play add I2C sensors. It's got 13 GPIO total, 11 on pads and... It's so small we have to force the overhead to refocus. I know. The overhead is shocked. Okay. How is this so small? It's so small. So you've got analog, I think almost every one of these pins has analog but there's like four dedicated analog here. Two pins are labeled for I2C. There's a second I2C port on the stomach QT so you've got like another two pins. Hardware UART, hardware SPI pins on the high speed SPI port which means that these three pins cannot do analog. They're the only three pins that don't because the high speed SPI is worth it. It's amazing. It's like some ridiculous megahertz, like 60 or 80 megahertz. So to connect to TFTs or some devices, very, very high speed. You've got the boot button and the reset button. The boot button can also be used as a user button. There's a regulator, there's a little neopixel right here that glows rainbow or whatever you can use it for signaling. There's a ceramic antenna on the top. And on the bottom, you've got the ESP32 S2 chip with the crystals and passes a lot of 0402s. The antenna goes out here and here is two more pads for battery input and this is diode protected so you can have, you know that we're using the seed shell pinout and they kind of decided that the five volt line was output not input and so you'd have to diode and whatever but basically if you want to connect a battery up, you can connect to these two pads and they're diode protected so when you plug in USB, you're not gonna damage the USB or the battery from that. And it's got cast-layed pads and it's super small and you can use it with Arduino or circuit Python. It's got four megabytes of flash and two megabytes of PS RAM. So I was waiting to release this until I could get the chips that had the PS RAM because that two megabytes of PS RAM is so handy. And it's Wi-Fi, this is amazing. So tiny. And it's Wi-Fi. And it's in stock now. I even put in a little bit right before the show to make sure we had some. So pick some up. And that's a, that's a problem. Okay, let's do a couple of questions as we do the top secret. So go over to discordatifruit.it slash discord. We'll get to those. We're gonna do some top secret in a sec. So Lady Aida, the questions that happened during the chat. So for the CP-2102, the C3 doesn't have USB natively. That's why circuit Python is a ways off. We have a version, we have things that we're working on. I think it does have some, it says it has built-in USB, but it's not native USB. It's got like a built-in JTAG or something. So yeah, we're not really planning on supporting the C3. Our next chip is probably the S3. Okay, next up, let's click the form factor. Does the BME280 run hot on the ESP32 S2 Feather? The HT20 on the Funhouse tends to run five degrees. Celsius higher than the off-board temperature sensor. So anytime you have any sensor on a board it's gonna heat up. However, if you look at the ESP32 S2 Feather tutorial we show how you can turn on the board from deep sleep, read the sensor, send data online and then turn off the board for a couple of minutes so that you never get an ambient temperature increase. Okay, we're gonna do one more question and then we're gonna do top secret. QDPi ESP32 S2 design questions. Learn guys says up to six volts can you use four AA or triple A batteries or stick three batteries since new batteries output a little over 1.6 volts each. That's right. If your voltage, your new fresh batteries are over 1.5 volts. You just wanna make sure that the total number is under six. Oh, I'll answer this one. Adaford, will you please have a happy as holiday season as possible? Yes. Yes, sure. We're doing really good. I mean, you know, we're pieced together and skidding across the finish line and all scars but who wants to arrive at the destination perfectly pristine? I like my cracks and scars. Okay, let's do some top secret. Okay, lady, at first up I'm gonna show a picture and then we're gonna do three videos and then you're gonna show something. So first up, we saw Liz. Yay, it's Liz. On disclose location somewhere, but we did, we saw Liz. But you can tell if there's a new carpet. So you'll see Liz somewhere and we're all masked up. You can tell. That guy wasn't in the background. Yeah. And then I'm gonna show three videos back to back to back of some upcoming stuff. And then you're gonna show the Scorpio boards to stick around folks. All right, lady, what is this? Hey, this is how we're gonna test the QDPI ESP32 S2s. I'm using a Raspberry Pi to do the test and that's because I can run ESP tool really easily over USB to program using the built-in DFU bootloader. Gonna use a GPIO pin to toggle the boot and reset lines to do that. And ESP tool compresses the firmware. So it's really the fastest way to upload a bunch of code to ESP32. And then I run a self test and one thing that I do because it's got an antenna is I have an access point created on the ESP32 S2 QDPI. And on the Raspberry Pi, I do a WPA CLI scan and I look for the access point and then check the signal. My hand's in the way, so it's 50, but usually it's about 40. So that means the antenna got started on correctly and this has passed test. All right, lady, what is this? Okay, so I'm just about to get ready to release the ESP32 S2 TFT feather. I actually ordered PCBs and then realized that I was not depowering the iSquad C pull-ups to peripherals which meant they were getting back powered which changed the low power draw. So now I'm really testing the heck out of it. I got this big chunky PM2.5 sensor connected to iSquad C. You can also see I'm testing turning the backlight on every second. And here's my power graph. So you can see the big power spike when that PM25 sensor turns on. And then this is low sleep mode which is about one milliamp and then deep sleep mode. Let's zoom all the way in. It's about 80 microamps which is as low as you're gonna get. That actually is the lowest powered deep sleep mode that you can get on the ESP32 S2. So this is ready to order. Be in the store soon. What lady, what is this? Hey, there's a lot of stuff going on my desk right now. First up, I've got this MCP 23017 breakout and I got my tester PCB. I have a new thing now where when I order my PCBs from JLCPCB, I get the prototype for the panel and I also get the tester PCB at the same time. So that way I put it together and then I just put some code that it's really fast but it actually tests like every PAN and GPIO and the iSquad C address and it beeps when it tests. And then I'm also checking out some samples of pink PCB. So we got our first batch of pink PCBs from PCBWay but our standard PCB house can also make pink PCBs. So they sent us some Pantone chip like samples. These are actually PCB but with the color. So going forward, we'll have two possible suppliers for these beautiful pink PCBs. Don't forget, free with your order, $99 or more. Okay, and then you have a new board that we're coming out with Scorpio. Yeah, it's the RP2040 Scorpio. You came up with this name. It's an amazing name. So this is, it's an amazing board. It's an RP2040 feather with eight GPIO that are buffered outputs to give five volt logic levels. So this would be really good for driving many addressable LEDs. It's also got iSquared C port and a NeoPixel and some cool graphics and eight megabytes of flash here. But with the PIO peripheral on the RP2040, it's really good at driving addressable LEDs very, very fast and using DMA and not requiring any weird timer stuff. You can just set it and forget it. It's very, very cool. So this is a board specifically designed to make that easy to do. And that's top secret. You can choose to answer this question if you wish. So is there gonna be a stem connector on this board? Yes, there's one. Is it gonna be vertical? Yeah, there's one right here. You can see on the guide. It's gonna be vertical, it'll be like a stinger. Yeah, I mean, I guess it could look like a little scorpion thing. You can check it, it's hard to see here because it's so shiny, but check out the blog post. All right, I'll answer this question from the other chat. Oh, should I, no, I should do this. I should be like, hey, look, we're doing questions in Discord. Oh yeah, we're doing questions in Discord. We're doing questions in Discord. Hey, we're doing questions in Discord. We're doing questions in Discord. We're doing questions in Discord. General 32,000, that's good to hear. We're doing questions in Discord. So this one, I'm gonna break my rule a little bit because I see this in the other chat. AmateurRedo, hey, I'm operator. Would like to learn more about the maker space. This may be a tough question, however. Where do I start? Is there a good starter kit? How about RPI? So I would not start with Raspberry Pi. I would start with something like the Circuit Playground Express or something that is Arduino compatible. Circuit Playground Express does it all. So I would start with that because that'll get you into like, oh, I wanna do a bunch of projects really fast where I think when you're coming from ham radio world, it's more like, here's a bunch of protocols first. And the projects in the maker world, take a look at learn.atafruit.com. There's over 2600, hey, kinda ham radio sounding. 2600 guides, check those out. And then later on I would say, as you get more advanced, there's a collision course with a lot of the ham radio stuff, a lot of Raspberry Pi stuff, a lot of Arduino circuit Python related stuff. There's lower radio stuff, but that's what I would do. I'd start with that. Okay, everybody likes pink. Great. Everyone likes pink. Yay. Have we ever thought of doing tutorial videos for YouTube? Yeah, check it out. We have lots of tutorial videos on YouTube. YouTube.com. Ford slash Adafruit. So many shows. We have tons. Are YouTube does not promote and spotlight women's STEM companies? It's like a fact. So, because we've asked and they're just like, well, if you did like make up tutorials, so sometimes it's hard to find our stuff. You'll find plenty of like lizard creatures and birds aren't real stuff, but it's harder to find STEM stuff. It just is. And I hope they continue to work on that. I know there's some good people working on it. I hope they continue to do that. Okay, next, BA for Buffered Outputs and PIO. Question, it's so neat that you show boards. You make the test new upcoming products. Can you share how long in general those takes to code and hardware design? It depends on the difficulty, but the good news is that I build on existing ones. So it usually takes me two or three days on some of the more tougher testers. A lot of times it's trying to figure out how to test what I'm trying to test. Then easy break up board like that MCP 23017. Designing the tester took like an hour and then I order the PCB right after I order the panel. And then, because I kind of know how to test it, it's pretty straightforward because I just test the GPIO. And then wearing the code for it also takes, you know, maybe two hours. Yeah, and then, you know, one of the things that someone mentioned just to get back to the previous question, for the person asking about like, you're coming from a hammering background. So if you start with a pie, there is like an OS, there is like a ton of stuff you have to do before you even get started. Where if you pick up a little bit of Python and you do things, the REPL and you do things in like circuit Python, you're instantly doing stuff immediately and you're seeing what you're doing and you're not compiling, you're not waiting, you're not downloading, you're doing everything in an instant. So that might give you that like special five minute like, oh my gosh, I got something done, I wanna keep doing more. Okay. Yeah, Blooper version is a good one to try too. Okay. And I think, I think, I think, I think, Gladiator, I think that is, I think that's it. Okay. That's wonderful. Okay. That's our show. Thanks everybody. Okay, thanks everybody. We will see you next week, special thanks to Jesse May behind the scenes. So he's doing a bunch of stuff in our chat. Oh, we'll do one more. Any plans for a new power boost? 2000 C with more amp output for new pixel projects? That's harder than you think because there's not a lot of batteries that will give you the current you need. So it's not an easy problem to solve. It isn't just like get a bigger chip. There's a lot of underlying issues that come up with that. Okay. And again, special thanks to all of our team, the community, everyone who's purchasing stuff. When you purchase stuff tonight, for sure, it's going into our bonus and profit sharing account because that's how we do stuff here. Do check Adafruit.com slash free. We still have some pink boards. You get free stuff, do it, do it, do it. Just be aware of the shipping deadlines. We thank you so much for sticking with us over the last 18 months. And more, we've been doing this for like a decade. We're going to go and watch The Matrix because it is what one does if you run an electronics company. I'm also going to take on my record that I got. This is the reissue of hackers. And this is the one that came out later. So there's more stuff and bonus material. More Angelina Julie. Yeah. And there's a lot of stuff. More Jenny Miller. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff here. And there's some extra bonus-y things. And so this is going to- More putting that thing in that place that they put that thing that one time. Yeah. And then the other thing that came in the mail is the princess with power tools. This is a calendar for 2022. Starring some more favorite princesses. So this is 12 inspiring women and individuals in the STEM and the trades. So you can check this out. And more and- Scarlet Witch in there. What's going on? Yeah, that's pretty cool. I guess she's technically a Disney princess, I guess. You could say that. The lines are getting blurred. I mean, they're owned by Disney now. Yeah. We'll see everybody next week. We're going to keep doing this. Thank you so much. Have happy holidays. Happy holidays. Please stay safe, everybody. And continue to be wicked smart. Okay, bye. All right, buddy. This is a native fruit production. Here is your moment of zener.

Thank you so much for staying with us once again. You are watching chit chat on your favorite youth channel Why to perform my name is feeling at feelings in a lot of socials, and I'm with a gang gang at the same time We're gonna know socials at June. Yeah, Tara Giovanni, yes, I like Italian You need to be here more often Yeah, you know it's been too long. All right now. Let's move on to another story I'm Maria actress and model Doria Chage has narrated of how she was robbed at globe roundabout in a ruby while in traffic In a video Doria recalls four men approaching her car and thought to herself that they wanted to steal her phone So she locked her car and closed her windows She further noted that they meant ride really hard to check who was in the car and upon realizing It's a lady. They robbed her of her car mudguard, but she managed to drive to her mechanic However, the shocking part is that the following day when she sent her rider to buy the spare parts They sold her the same spare parts that was stolen from her the previous day. We have the video. Let's have a look There's two sides. They are chiming and they say they are Jew. You understand, yeah? So I decided we can pick a side they are Jew Guys, I was inside the car. You know what happened? I saw some four guys, and I was like How many ways you are same old so what I did I just locked my car We can finish at the beach as much as you and little did I know like a blink of an eye This was what was happening. Apparently I was told these guys they go around your car They are four of them. They go around your car. What you go around your car when I told you and I This is what they were doing So I had to go all the way to Kenya I couldn't go so I sent someone into a bike Imagine I'm in letter V2 Zangu the same same thing as they leave you on the zone email I mean can I roll I can't even believe it guys like I can't believe it Maybe you ever to Zangu Jenna, you know, no, I tell her anyway sour So apparently I'm willing to scratch your heart. I was very sure So I can that's how I got to know this is my and also guys, let me show you You see this part I To buzz room for that one and Welcome to Nairobi Now you are part of of Nairobi and so it's yes, do you know what I was thinking Hey Well, well, she's a celebrity I tend to think for most of them they are sort of like shifted from the Kawerida Nairobi that most common as experience. So Paul is Anna for what happened, but Maybe next time be more vigilant The moment The moment you are approaching CBD CBD start from Pangani You're supposed to be a lot Who is who even when you're driving you always need to be checking What's admirable and who's approaching the car who's who's like you need to be vigilant as a driver because you don't know All is lock your windows rather lock your car Windows if you are alone, especially if you are lady because I think As you are all aware times have been a bit tough So even for those who are stealing when gonna see but I'm not encouraging theft in any way But people are trying to make that extra coin just to survive not even for luxury So we just need to be more vigilant and Paul is Anna, but it's like we move on it regardless I know right. Don't they say marginal things you can replace. It's your life in mind. It's the most test hours You look sad. What's happening? Like to my watch I graduate with This is a life ministry It's called what You call it a roundabout No, not I got really good as a boy 6 30.

She was crying like she couldn't hold it Because you see they're targeting ladies. Do you want to do our ladies are more vulnerable? It's during the day. So what do you think we need to do?

New you should and I didn't cover Japan at job Never you through a co-idol like what's really happening. What do we need to do moving forward, right? Talk to us would love to sample that at the end of the show now onto another story and media personality Terian Chabette exposed a man who she intended to help but later dropped after realizing that he had been Thasting after her in her DMs for a while now Terian has taken to her social media pages to call out the man for shooting his shot while he was actively job hunting I expose. However, we saved the mixed reactions from Kenyans who are Kenyans on social media rather With some thinking that she could have given him a chance since he was qualified for the job All right, there it is on your screen That is how the story started like Terian Alquana to show like even though he and the yellow. This is the guy When I look at outside, don't say none of our DMs like hand sweet lips I'm making that up. Look at that. Yeah, that is the guy in the DMs and I should show to you Okay, like oh, you're looking nice. Yeah, no, no kissable. What is that even? Really not so easy I'm not to my CV. I know I'm being a jeterian like help me I'm was like, you know what? Send your CV. Send your CV and then the guy send the CV and Terian looks at the CV and the guy is actually qualified is like let's arrange for an interview and Then goes to look at that at the previous chat to these guys He's like wait, but I've talked to this guy got like a while back. I had talked to him Looks at the screen. She's like, you know what? What do you think? What's she wrong and compared to job anyway job qualified Is she being petty? I think it's petty, you know why? Mm-hmm. We all get those DMs. We all get such. Let's act like It's just that I think she's a celebrity. She's known So I'm to money and expect When he jobs, he says I don't give a job. Yeah to me hi hi there. Hi When can we meet you look pretty much as a love heart love heart kubu in a bit TV You know, like that is what you usually get You know Yeah, I'm working with you. I'm working with Canada My friend from I think You know what chill out girl everyone is going through that I'm a demon. I shoot their shots in men's inboxes Because here's the thing Qualified Like to organize for the interview to happen so that he can get a job But then I realize Kissable lips, so she's like this is a person. I'm going to keep in my office working for me The person who's been texting me like this. You as a boss. You're one hiring. Would you hire him? Well, um, if he has a skills the right attitude I can hire. You know what you can only change attitude So long as you have the skills and the willingness to learn and this is a guy who's desperate But the mere fact that he's leading to your inbox. I can say my he wants a job That's taking a big risk especially with a celebrity So in a case it wasn't necessary to come to an end and go okay fine I'm not hiring you because we're going to be DM nasty What's a guy but you don't need to expose them So that was wrong of her I'll tend for those who follow America's on Twitter I know I'm an avid follower Trash talk Where we in this app was Alicia Attention from anywhere Well, okay, I don't agree with the what's put out on his Twitter page, but his message I tend to agree with it Tell you and that was a necessary If you are not helping this guy Storing Asia, but there's only to expose him. I don't know For future reference You are to what I do Not that you don't find Hi hi hi You get them daily. Yes, how you'll react to them that you choose you know matter your energy out at all No pay your negative energy and any like it's not the first time she's getting it We are definitely sure even they are more worse. Yeah, that's it. No pattern Take him on board then guide him through tell you what you are doing is wrong. He is a professional environment Anything less That was the only way Attention Desperate they do anything So Yeah, yeah, I'm on the guy's side like we all get those DMs. Let's not apps like you're the only one No We've got you guys What is this And the Kenyans on social media have a questions people are you ready for this now Kenyans on social media have been questioning why So many international artists, especially from west Africa are coming to Kenya Despite COVID-19 now due to a high enough of artists scheduled to perform in Kenya Kenyans including Ben Saul Of Sauti Saul asking is it what is it that Kenya has that Kenyans don't see They even are seeing like bn continued to joke that even him he will be coming to Kenya very soon Other me at this point Like so many international artists, they're just like Kenya. I'm on my way that is bn speech Like that's his street of engine. He's like, you know, I'm coming to Kenya. So Kunani Are we just hoping to receive anyone the other day? Let me tell you something recently those are Statistics that were rolled out and on youtube it showed like Diamond harmonize Zuchu Ravani all these top artists in east Africa and most importantly in Tanzania even the Nigerians they get most of their views from Kenya So are we hypocrites like our artists our views Five months later One meal on 700k We love you I'm speaking this from experience. We had an event at carnival. I personally went there. It was organized by Shafiweru Every other artist they turn out we're solo Even Bihati even every artist was there but they turn out Very long imagine international artists And I could just say many omale solo too laugh was about Kenya. We can talk about a laugh Event in a jar tickets is not sold out Tickets in a cross all that what can you say? Are we not jealous of our artists? Am I what are we doing? Are we not supportive enough? What I can say regarding that quality Okay, quality now International artists they spend To have a song out quality beat production kill a kid to video Equal top notch now again another thing that comes into play For the international artists. They are not blunt with the words I know there's sexual connotation cells nowadays. It has been selling for the longest time But now the problem with Kenyan artists. I think they are too raw Because you also have to look at the kind of audience you're reaching out to find it might be the youth But also in the process That's how Kenya they're all bland I have nothing against gengeton. I love gengeton but In terms of PG You know But now check check. I'm like you have said those guys from from Nigeria Ghana, you know Kina Whiskey Whiskey actually Just on that note. He had a show in Is it London or you wise and you hope to stage with octo octo was one on one of easy Yeah, so try to him on that one. Yes. Yeah So you see like for his case He grew slowly by slowly and if you check with kids song from way back, they are not dirty Actually, we're singing about his rising. He was not that blunt. Yeah, that's the problem with Kenya So I think it's quality content. That's what you'll find at the invest even 10,000 for show for international artists than pay a thousand for I don't know trash music if I can call it I'm sorry, but I don't know how to give it opinions of Not white with a four jc. What are we thinking? That's right. I like one I agree in our quality of music here too and content So people don't invest in videos No, I'm saying Content I think what what you're feeding us because what you come out my lady at a most of the videos and I can't get to that I can't get it from you Yes Can your bf even Yes Jacket Because honestly That I'm talking about gang get on to be particular Let's go to other songs like Kina Othile's song Like I think that is what june meant Because Othile is our very own and whatever he's singing whatever content and bring out Yeah I Also something else I think from the word go we were trained to lipata in mindset Kenyan music is not good ever since we were growing up Blah blah blah blah blah blah Well Yes Oh, she's amazing But you see So many people said like she has good vocals and good content, but in English now, that's the problem Because of time, so I think we're going to be something some of the comments Surely Yeah Yeah, so we're here with marita roxy Marita roxy.
