Obviously, we're going to be trying to read a lot this week, so yeah, I think I'll definitely be able to read this. Stop! Why are you... Stop! Why are you ahead? Okay. Hello. As many of you know, I'm trying to read 100 books this year. I want to keep doing stuff that helps me reach my Goodreads reading goal. So, this week I asked on Twitter for any tips you guys had for reading a lot or reading quickly and basically they're going to rule my week of reading. So everything I read this week and how I read is going to be dictated by how you guys read quickly. Today, I'm actually going to York, which is why I've got a scarf on. I look ridiculous. I'm going out to York, so maybe you're not the best day to start filming, but like... So I'm not going to get loads of reading done today and so what I figured was one thing that kept coming up and coming up and coming up was graphic novels. And so today, which is Friday, I'm going to read a graphic novel to start this vlog off and can you guess what it is? No. I'm going to read Volume 2 of Heart Stopper today. I'm going to start it this morning and then when I come home this evening, hopefully I'll finish it. Graphic novels like Don't Take That Long To Read, especially Heart Stopper, it's a pretty quick read. So I think I can definitely finish it today and then tomorrow I will tell you the rest of my reading plans and the rest of my TBR for this week. So most of the days I'm scared of. I'm not going to lie to you. Oh my God, wait. Why am I so mad? Restaurants in York. Is this pancake restaurant? Double Dutch Pancake House? Something like that. And it's so good. I got this hot chocolate and it was a Biscoff hot chocolate as in like the Lotus Biscoff biscuits. Oh my God. It tasted like, I've never tasted something like that. It was crazy and it was so thick. Literally best hot chocolate I've ever had. It was live-changing. Like... I'm getting horny. I'm getting horny. I've never had that. A miracle soup. Want some books? So first I popped in to a kind of like a secondhand bookstore that's right by York Cathedral, I think it's like the Minster Gate Bookshop or something like that. And they have this bargain basement where a lot, some of the books are secondhand but a lot of them are also new for reduced prices. Like you can get a 12 pound book like 3 pound and it's like new condition. just some like older titles I guess, like not new releases. And so I had a little peruse in there and I was like telling myself, Megan, you're not allowed to get anything that isn't on your TBR. And I actually found the Tree of Yoga. So for those of you who don't know, I really like doing yoga. I love following Yoga's Agents channel on YouTube. This is a book I've just heard kind of her recommend a lot and a lot of people recommend a lot. And I'm not sure exactly how I'm gonna react to it. I don't know if I necessarily think about yoga in the way that this book does. Really excited to get my hands on that. And then I had to go to Waterstones. I just had to. And I wasn't planning on buying anything. I really wasn't. I wasn't planning on buying anything. But I did have Waterstones vouchers. And listen, it's fine. It's fine. I just bought some books. I bought some books. They were all by one get one half price, which is what, which is what caused me to buy them. And then like, once I'd picked up two, I picked up four. The first book I wanted to pick up what, oh, I did pick up. No, I bought it. Was The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley. So this is kind of like a traditional murder mystery. And oh my God, I'm obsessed. All I want to read right now is murder mystery. Like that is the zone I am in. I listened to the audiobook of Murder on the Orient Express recently. And I'm obsessed. This is, I think like in a remote hunting lodge in the Scottish wilderness. Tell me that doesn't get you excited. Tell me that doesn't get you excited. Oh, this is so good, oh my God. I think I just want to, I just want to read murder mystery. Like I'm so, I want to listen to every Agatha Christie audiobook. And I've decided that I'm going to listen to them in order. So then alongside that, for the buy one get one half price, I picked up Bunny by Mona Awad. And okay, I've heard how messed up this is. I've heard that it's weird. I've heard that it's a little bit like freaky shit, you know, but I like weird stuff. And for a while I was scared off by this a little bit. I was kind of like, oh, am I about to put myself through that? Like I don't know if I quite have the balls. I just saw it and I saw it in the paperback. I think the paperback has only just come out in the UK. So like when it wasn't hard back, it was more expensive. Like I don't know if I want to do that. But now it's in paperback. I felt like, okay, I can do it. I can do it. I think all the characters at some kind of university and it's a clique of girls who call themselves the bunnies. And I think, I think there's trigger warnings for like animal abuse. And I just, I don't know. I don't think I want to know too much going into it. But yeah, pick that one up. Then I picked up Wilder Girls by Rory Power. Again, listen, we know on this channel that anything that Kada from Books and Lother recommends, this is gonna be reading eventually. And so I've been waiting for this to come out in the UK. It hasn't come out in the UK. I think it's only just come out now. So I love the cover. I think everyone loves the cover. Again, a little bit weird. I think there's these girls who, there's some kind of infection and they all start mutating. And then one of the girls goes missing and they need to figure out where she's gone and what's happened and it's scary and eerie. And it just sounds like a good time. And then you can tell, you can just tell them on that mystery, you can just tell them on that mystery hype. You can just tell because then next I picked up the Vanishing Stare by Maureen Johnson. So this is the second in the Trudy Devious series. And I've read the first one and I really, really, really enjoyed it. I just really want to get through this series this year. This is one of the main series is that I want to get through this year. I think it was in my series I need to finish video. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. So, yeah, I saw this and I was like, okay. I just need to get it. So that's my book, cool. Let's talk about Heartstopper. So I'm halfway through volume two and I'm dumb, okay? Let's talk about this. So volume one, I was like, oh, that's like 300 pages, maybe a bit under. And then I look at volume two and I get it and I'm like, 500 pages? Wow, we're going out here. And then when I got volume three, I was like, 900 pages. Oh my God, that's so big, but it doesn't look that much bigger. And then I realized when I started this book, this book starts at page 256. So they run on, the pages are carrying on. I can't believe I thought volume three was 900 pages. Anyway, apart from that, I mean, love. I was so worried, I was so worried that volume two, like either wouldn't connect with me in the same way because I just felt like volume one was so special. But if anything, this may even be better. Their face expressions are still incredible. She's using more techniques to kind of set the scene in this one. So like when it's raining on the conservatory, there's loads of like patter, patter, patter, patter is written around. Or maybe if someone shoves someone or pats someone, it will say pat pat on the page. And it's just such a cool way to read because you just feel like you can feel the pat pat. And it's just the cutest book. It's just everything you need if you need a palette cleanser. You've been reading. I've been reading loads of fantasy recently and I needed something that wasn't fantasy and this is just, it's just it. It's just it. I cannot tell you. Okay, graphic novels are definitely the way to go because I've barely read today and I'm already halfway through. I'm definitely gonna finish this tonight and I'll just feel great about myself starting this week. This was definitely, I'm just, I'm a genius, my mind. I am so powerful, my mind, oh, it amazes me sometimes. Oh my God, Allid, Allid's in this, Allid last. If you've read Radio Silence, Allid from that has just turned up and he's friends with Charlie and you know, I just die, I just die. Oh, I love all the characters. Like all the characters are just perfect. Not even just Nick and Charlie, like every character. Morning. I was supposed to check in with you again about Heart Stopper last night, but I fell asleep. So let's just talk about it. It's just so good. No one is out here doing it like Allid's osement. No one, it's out here. No one is out here doing it for us like Allid's osement. Honestly, it's just one of the most like heartwarming things I've ever read. She's so good with body language and facial expressions, which I don't think all graphic novels are. It's definitely a very coming to terms with coming out story for one of our characters and kind of them grappling with figuring out what their sexuality is and kind of like accepting wanting to come out. It's just so beautifully done. So honestly, if you haven't picked up this series yet, I don't know what you're doing. Like it's just so good. And I can't wait to read the third one. So let's talk about the rest of the week. So for the rest of the week, there's gonna be like some general rules that my reading is inspired by and then each day it's gonna have like another big rule, if that makes sense. So generally what a lot of you said was reading more than one book at a time. Now, I usually read a physical book and an audio book at a time, but we're gonna be reading more than that at once this time. Audio books. Everyone said audio books and short audio books. And I'm gonna be playing up into that because a lot of all people also said we children's or middle grade books. So I was like, okay, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna be listening to the audio books for the Mallory Towers series by Enid Blyton. I loved that series in our jungle. I've just finished the first audio book the other day. Oh my God, the sun just left us. It was like fine. It was a three star, but I think they're just something really easy to listen to. Just in terms of like I have to read this this month, I'm also gonna be reading Catch 22 by Joseph Heller. So as you don't know, I have like 12 books that I'm trying to read this year that are kind of like the books I would never pick up otherwise. And this is one of them. This is my February pick. So I've got to read it in February and so I'm reading it this week. Otherwise I would never read it. I don't know if I ever mentioned this on the channel, but I DNF'd White Teeth by Zadie Smith, which was the January pick. I'll stuff you if you don't like it, you know, get over it. I did have to add like 80 pages, 90 pages. It just wasn't for me. I, it was so boring. It was like the most boring thing I've ever read. But I feel pretty good about Catch 22. It's long, obviously we're gonna be trying to read a lot this week. So yeah, I think I'll definitely be able to read this. Stop, why you're, stop, why you're ahead. You know, people said read every three times. So I'm gonna be trying to read every three times if I have, which I kind of do anyway, but I've been on a bit of a sim binge at the moment. Like I just can't stop playing it, if I'm honest. So if I play that, I will listen to an audiobook because I still can't just reading. The main thing that we're gonna be implementing today, if I can find it, was from Madison Story. And she said, if you're a student and rewarding yourself with reading breaks is a great motivator to get schoolwork studying done. But also decreasing insanity and providing more reading opportunities. Oh my God, I haven't told you the third thing I'm reading. Okay, so a lot of people said eBooks as well, reading something on your phone whenever you've got a spare moment. Like if you're turning up to a lecture and you're waiting outside, read something on your phone. So before I get into what I've just told you, I'm also gonna be reading The Crown of Embers by Ray Carlson, if you can see that. I'm co-hosting, if you don't know, read along for this series. This is the second book and that's our February read. So I need to read that this month as well. So this video is just to try and get me to read all the books that I have to read this month. I'm gonna be scheduling, reading breaks really regularly. So I'm gonna be working for a little bit and reading for a little bit. And that's my day today. Usually if I'm spending a day working, like doing uni work, I actually find it quite difficult to get reading done. I just kind of put it to one side and forget about it. But hopefully today if I say, okay, read 10 pages of this or read a bit of this, do you know what I mean? Or listen to a bit of the audio book. I think that it'll probably help. Good evening. I just had a bit of a day today where it just kind of got away from me. I did take breaks when I was working when I was reading and I think it was actually kind of refreshing because I was like, okay, just get this a little bit of work done, then you can have a little reading break. And I think it helped me carry on working. So I think that's definitely something I'm gonna keep implementing throughout the rest of the week. I actually read my ebook kind of embers whilst I was drawing my hair, which is like a big deal because I always scroll through Twitter or Instagram like aimlessly when I'm drawing my hair. But today I was like, no, okay, I'm gonna read my book. And so I read like, I don't know, 12 pages or something. But like, at least I did it, you know? But the majority of my reading today it actually is my audio book because I prepped lunch and dinner for the next couple of days. So I cooked loads, like I cooked for quite a while. And so I've read 62% of the second Mallory Towers book which I think is about 90 pages. So I've read 90 pages of that. Usually when I reread series or books I feel like I'm remembering them and imagining them and like visualizing the scenes like I did when I was younger. So like when I read Love Aubrey or Girl Missing or Ginger Snaps for example, I felt like I was visualizing it in the same settings as I did when I read it when I was younger. But Mallory Towers seems so distant and unfamiliar to me. Like I feel like I haven't read these books but I suppose I would have been like seven or something ridiculous like that. I probably would have been really young whereas the other ones I maybe would have been a bit older. But it's just a bit of fun. Like it's just a lighthearted books. I don't think, I think if I was rating it not for my enjoyment, I never know should be able to do some good reads whether to rate for my enjoyment or like as a book because I'd probably rate it like four stars these books if I was rating them as kids books. Like what do I think of this for kids? But my rating's always what was my enjoyment and like a three stars, it was good. Like I enjoyed myself, you know? But it wasn't, I didn't really, really like it and I didn't love it. And the narrator is really good. Like she's really good at coming up with different voices for all the characters like all the girls. She's really good at it and it's so engaging. I read 90 pages of that. I read about 25 pages of Crown of Embers just throughout the day. And then I have started Catch-22 this evening but I've only read two pages. So at least I've started on three books but yeah, this just wasn't gonna happen today. Hopefully I can get like a good way through this tomorrow. So it's now Sunday. It's actually Sunday evening. Sundays I don't get a lot of reading done because I'm editing the whole day but today I actually finished a bit earlier. It's about half five now. And so I'm gonna upload in, I think about half now I think I'll upload a bit earlier than usual. And so I've got the whole evening to read. So I've still got a lot of time to read. I'm not really depending on doing much else. So I have read a bit today. I've read quite a bit of my audiobook again. I've only got about half an hour of my time left of that. So I'm hoping I'm gonna finish that in a bit. I might just do a few little things while I start. Hair looks weird. Yeah, I might just do a few little bits while I listen to that. And then I've read like about 15 pages of Catch-22. I don't know what's going on yet. I know it's supposed to be satire but I am confused. I am confused. I'm not gonna lie to you. It's really weird. I don't know if I'm just dumb or I just think I haven't quite got into it yet. So hopefully by tonight, I wanna get, I'm on page 22 now. I wanna get at least a page like a hundred. So the prompt today was to pay for back Jedi. And it was, I am flow reward system if I need to hardcore it a lot or read faster. Every X amount of pages, I get chocolate or bubble tea or snack or something now. I wanna like eat loads. I think I'm gonna set some page goals and say I can have like a biscuit after the page goals. And then late this evening, I might make a peppermint tea. Now I'm only making it because of this. I don't actually drink the peppermint tea but like I want to. So I might do that this evening and like let myself have some tea after a certain amount of pages. I don't know if you can tell but I've really just woken up. I need to go wash my hair. Last night, the snack thing didn't go that well. So I had the biscuit but I didn't read. I think I was just like, yesterday I obviously edited a vlog. It had been quite long and I'd just been hearing myself talk about books all day and I just wanted to pay the sims instead so that's what I did. I didn't even listen to my audiobook. That was loud. So today we're really gonna try and like push through especially because the prompt today is from Books and Knee. They said that if they have an ebook version on their phone, they'll make a rule that they have to, if they wanna check Twitter or YouTube on their phone, they have to read at least 10 pages beforehand. Now I'm gonna say five pages because I know otherwise it just won't work out. I'd rather do it more in short respects with like five pages and I can always read more. Like I can always start and I wanna read more than the five pages. So that's what we're gonna do today. And today is gonna be the best reading day ever because it snowed over that. Like barely, let me show you. Look at that snow. I mean, you know what I mean. It's like barely snow but it's snow. Throughout the day, even if like in breaks at uni and stuff cause my thing I'll probably have a break halfway. Like I'm gonna try and read and not go on Twitter. I mean it's bad. As we see, I spend about five or six hours on my phone a day, it tells me. Oh, okay. So last week, across the whole seven days, I spent 10 hours on Twitter. That's not great, is it? And I'm gonna try and read some catchery too but I think we're mainly focusing on the e-book today. And I've decided I'm gonna listen to City of Ghost by Victoria Schwab as my next audiobook because I just wanted to listen to something different than the Mano Tower's books. And it sticks with, it's a short audiobook that's like middle grade, which is what like everyone kind of recommended. So I think I'm gonna listen to that. And I feel like that's such a good thing to listen to today cause it's all snowy and like dark outside. So I feel like it's a great reading thing cause when it snows, you just wanna read. That's all you wanna do. So I don't wanna do any of my uni work today. I just wanna read. Okay, bye. The reading strategy of making myself read five pages of the book before I go on Twitter is going great because I've read like over 80 pages saying I'm on page 105 so I'm about a quarter into the book. So that's going great. Rest of my life, not so much. I just napped in the middle of the day for the e-commerce last time I did that. And I haven't done any uni work and I should go to the gym now. I'm really sure. You know when you should, but you feel so tired and you know it's the one thing that's probably gonna make you feel better but like you still don't wanna do it. In terms of the book, I'm actually enjoying it a lot. The beginning I felt was a bit disjointed. The kind of opening chapters. I felt like everyone was just a different character from how we left them in the first book. Like just the way people were talking and acting towards each other was very strange to me. We can do this. The whole day is still ahead of us. Okay, okay. Everything's great. Everything's great. You know people who are super aesthetic. Sometimes I wanna be like them but then that's when I sometimes realize just like sometimes I try. Sometimes I try for you but like we all know that ain't quite me. Bye, I love you, bye. Okay, bye. We went to the gym. I hope you're proud of me. It's just what I needed. Like I felt so great afterwards. I'm like so happy about having gone. So like if you're starting to get in a bit of a rat at this time of year I'll just like try and make us all do it so hard. There's so many times what I felt like that I haven't made myself do it but yeah, I don't feel really happy about that. And yeah, just making some dinner now. We're gonna have lamb burgers with like pita, rocket, halloumi and some wedges. I just made the wedges. Tom makes the lamb burgers because he's good at that one. I make the wedges. And yeah, I started sitting up going to the gym. I don't really know how I feel about it yet. I'm only like two or three chapters in and I don't think I'm gonna end up listening to any more tonight. It's like fine but I'm a bit nervous about Victoria Schwab's writing because I gave vicious five stars and vengeful two stars. And then there are these two books I've read of hers and so I feel like I don't have... It could go either way. But because it's a middle grade I don't know if I can see myself giving it five stars. I just don't tend to do that. It's very rarely do I do that. So I don't know if I've spoken off about Mallory Towers. Like if you read that when you were younger definitely listen to all your books, it's so fun. I'm really excited to get into more of Crown of Embers tonight. I don't know if I'm gonna read much of Catch-22. I'm just like not... I don't want to. But I don't wanna DNF it because I DNF'd White Teeth and I don't wanna DNF all these books but I'm picking out that mug. I'm in my kitchen because there's the best lighting at night. I've got no trousers on so I'm hoping no one walks by my windows. So I've just been reading all evening and I actually read today of Crown of Embers. I've read 220 pages of that today. Yo. Shit. No, hang on a minute. I like this. Oh my God. This tip of like making myself read and sort of going on Twitter has worked because I feel like I did that throughout the day and I feel like I'd read so much. And then this evening I was like I just wanna carry on having read a lot. You know, I really wanna do well and like read loads. And so I've just sat and read and like barely gone on Twitter like I would usually do. I'm really proud of myself. And then I've read about, I just worked out about 30 pages of City of Ghost which is more than I thought. I thought it would be about 20. So we're sitting at about 255 in total between the two pages today which I'm so happy with. And I don't feel like I've like sat and forced myself to read or like read all day and not done anything else. Like I feel like I've done a lot of other stuff today as well alongside that. And so yeah, I'm really enjoying Crown of Embers. It's definitely like a slower pace book but sometimes I like them. Like sometimes in a story of loads of stuff is happening I'm like, you know? But in this like it's much more I like the politics. I like the like maneuverings. I just really like it. I'm really enjoying it. I don't think it's gonna be a five star but I think it's a strong four star for me. So hopefully I'll finish that tomorrow. I think I've got about an hour and a half of reading a bit left. My tip tomorrow, I already know because I have to wake up in time for it is to wake up about half an hour earlier. So I have half an hour of reading in the morning and I have to be in uni for half nine tomorrow and I'm in the whole day. Well, the whole day I'm into like half three. I think I'll pick up Crown of Embers again just because I kind of wanna finish it tomorrow and have it out of the way. So I'm gonna go for that. And yeah, I'm just feeling great. Like today has been a really good reading day. Like I feel like I've done really well. So I'm gonna go sleep now because I'm tired but I feel good and I feel like tomorrow once I've like got uni out of the way I will be, I look weird. I'll be really excited to read so yeah. I'm running so late before uni but I just want to check in and say that I really enjoyed reading for half an hour when I woke up this morning. Like usually I would sit in bed and go on social media for half an hour every morning. Like as I wake up but actually reading meant I did something productive and I feel like I've made progress in something like first thing in the morning. So I think I'm gonna try and do that more in the mornings like reading instead of going on social media. I've only got about a hundred pages of the book left now. So it won't take me long to finish it at all and I'll definitely finish it today and hopefully we can read some more. Anyway, I need to go to uni so peace out. Hello friends, apologies it's pancake day. Right, does everyone have pancake day? Is it like a worldwide thing or is it just a UK thing? I don't know but Tom's going to get ready to make pancakes today so if you hear noises that's what's going on. I got home from uni and I was like I'm sorry. I'm just gonna read. I thought about doing uni work but maybe some of you can relate and it's just gonna do it. I read and I finished Crown of Embers. I finished it. Guys, I finished this book. I really enjoyed it. I'm giving it four stars. I gave the first book in the series four stars. There are moments I was like this could be a five star but I felt the ending was a bit like a cop-out. Like I felt like it was kind of like oh really that's what we're gonna go. It wasn't a bad ending, like it was fine but I just would have enjoyed the direction that the end book would go in if the ending had gone the way I wanted it to go if that makes sense. So I was kind of like ah really. I was thinking about it and if you see my last vlog which was me reading like making progress in some higher book chief series. Gemini isn't really fantasy but the other two were fantasy and this is fantasy and they're all middle books in the series like middle book in trilogies. So that's three I've read like in the last couple of books I've read all been middle books in fantasy series. And like they all kind of follow the same formula and I feel like I'm just a bit bored of it. The rest of the evening I'm gonna eat pancakes. I'm gonna plan my videos for tomorrow and I hope I'm gonna read some more of Catch-22. So I've got, I'm thinking. I've got today, tomorrow and the day after to read it because I wanna finish it by then and it's over 500 pages, oh. I'm just about to record some videos today but yeah, I didn't read any Catch-22 last night. I can't believe it in here. I can't believe that. I actually can't believe that. But yes, there was a great reading day. I don't know how much time I'm gonna have to read today so we'll see. Today's task I think is from Zoe. She goes, this one is wild but it works every time. I read a whole hell of a lot more when I actually get off Twitter and read. World right? Number three was because so many books are in December when I made reading a priority again. So she doesn't actually tell me to not go on Twitter but I'm taking that as I'm not allowed to go on Twitter today. I spend way too much of my day on it so today I'm not allowed to go on Twitter. There's been moments, I'm not gonna lie where I've clipped on it without even thinking and then I've had to hurriedly get off it but yeah, I've gotta try not to get on Twitter today and I hopefully read a lot of Catch-22 because I don't understand what's going on and I think that makes me dumb. I have made the decision to DNF Catch-22. Now, if you know anything about me you know I've already had a DNF one book before and it was White Teeth which was the other book I picked out on that jar so far of me trying to read the books I'd been avoiding. I'm forcing myself to pick it up and I'm not enjoying the reading experience and I have no idea what's going on and I just don't think I'm in the right like mental capacity to read it at the moment. Not like anything's wrong but just like I'm just not making sense of it at the moment and I feel dumb and I know it probably should make sense but for some reason my brain just isn't working with it. I bought both this and White Teeth at the start of January last year when I was just getting back into reading and I remember I went into this second hand bookstrap which I go into quite a lot in York and I just picked up any books that I knew the names of essentially or I'd heard other people read or I felt like I should read. You know I felt like I should read some Zadie Smith I felt like I should read Catch-22 but I think if I hadn't bought that then and I was to see this in a shop now I wouldn't pick it up. Just because I think I've learned more about what I wanna read and what I enjoy reading and I just don't think I'd be drawn to this but because I've bought it and I've started it there is something about it that I wanna read but I just don't think it's right for right now so I'm DNFing it and I'm okay with that decision. I'm okay with it. It's a shame but I just don't wanna force myself to read something I'm not enjoying right now and I would have to finish this by tomorrow and I have like 460 pages to read. It's just not gonna happen so we're DNFing it. I feel very bad. I do not want to comment. Why? Why? So I think now until the end of the video I'm just gonna focus on finishing City of Ghost by Victoria Schwab on audiobook. I've got to edit tonight and edit tomorrow anyway and then I'm going out in the evening tomorrow so I wasn't gonna have a lot of time to read now anyway and yeah, I just like, I think if you're having to force yourself to pick something up it's just not the right moment for it but I'm still gonna keep it. I'm not gonna get rid of it. I'm gonna go eat some aga mammas and I'm gonna edit my audiobook recommendations video which I will link if you haven't seen it. It should be the video before this one. So yeah, I feel liberated. I feel liberated having decided I'm gonna DNF this. Oh my God, my delivery driver's ringing me. Okay, bye. Hello. So I didn't do a very good job of checking in last night or today. So yesterday the whole task of not going on Twitter didn't really work. I did go on Twitter quite well. It worked like most of the day but then in the evening I just gave up. Reading today I just tried to finish City of Bones which I did finish. I gave it three stars. I've read a lot of middle grades recently that I've preferred to it and I just wasn't that into the story. The story felt really flat to me. I kind of only half listened. Does that make sense? I felt like the big kind of denouement at the end was just nothing. Do you know what I mean? It just wasn't, it wasn't for me. In terms of like how the reading actually went this week I finished four books which I think in seven days is fairly decent but I know that one was a graphic novel and two were kids books. I mean I do know that. I read 1,188 pages in total. So that divided by seven is about 170 pages per day which I think is really decent. Like 170 pages a day I don't think is to be like scenario. I think that's pretty good. So I'm happy how this video went. I think I definitely read more this week following your tips than I would have done if I hadn't followed your tips. And I think there's definitely quite a few I'm gonna kind of carry on in my reading going forward. Like having an ebook to always read I never thought to do that before, like ever. And now I have to have an ebook to like read at those little moments when you wouldn't be reading otherwise and try and spend less time on Twitter. So yeah, I'm gonna definitely implement stuff from this video. So I think it was a success. And I think four books, 1,000, almost 200 pages, it's not bad. It's not bad. I think I should be proud of myself. So I hope you've enjoyed this video. Let me know down below if you think you could implement any of these tips into your reading yourself and still let me know whether you've got any more tips for me because I really wanna hear them. I always wanna be able to read more. That's what I'm trying to do all of this year. So yeah, let me know that down below. I hope you enjoyed the video and I will see you very, very soon with another one. Bye.

Welcome back to Entrepreneurship Tuesday, online in the morning, special thanks to Alex for that informative interview. As we move on swiftly, we have Eric Smith, who's the CEO and founder of Smith's Ages Limited, and under Smith's Ages, we have the Globe Magazine, which is a digital magazine or an online magazine, and is here to share the story with us about digital content, creation development, and everything about it. So before we talk to him, be sure to interact with us on our social media handles at Y-54 channel on Twitter, Y-54 underscore channel on Instagram, and Y-54 on Facebook. Hashtag is one in the morning. Hashtag is Entrepreneurship Tuesday. And our SMS line is 201-54. Start with Y-254, and you'll reach us directly. Karibusana, Mr. Eric. Thank you very much for having me back. All right, your camera is number four right there. If I missed anything in your credentials, you can go ahead and say it. Thank you very much. I'm Mr. Eric Smith from Smith Ages Limited. I'm the director and founder. And I'm glad that you're here. Had me today. All right. So, this journey, when did it start? It started way back in campus since I was in my second year. All right, what was your... What's your background at Y-54? I have a degree in BA, Fine Arts. Fine Arts? Yeah, majoring in interior design. Oh, you majored in interior design. Yeah. All right, so you're a very visual person. Yeah, I'm very visual and very creative. All right. So, back in campus, you're studying interior design. And then you think about digital media. Yeah. All right, so did you want to connect the two interior design and digital media, or you just wanted two parallel things? Pretty much, I actually studied out as a photographer. Yeah. So, I studied out as a photographer. I went on that way, and then after that, I got interested in graphics. So, I really wanted to connect the two. So, that's how it all started. All right, because when it comes to interior design, you have to design using software. Yeah. And it's not so far from graphic design. Yeah. The software for interior design. Yeah. All right, so photography also helps with interior design, because that's how you market your work. Pretty much. After you've done something, you have to take photographs of it. Exactly. All right, so there's photography, there's interior design, and then there's graphic design. Yeah. And then all this birthed the Glow magazine. Yeah. All right. All this, the photography is what actually started the magazine. Uh-huh. Yeah. Then the graphics is what started the digital company. Okay, so there are like two in one. Yeah. All right. So, how big is the company's over? So, we are a limited company with a team of five, and we have a lot of partners in it. Uh-huh. Yeah. How many partners over? We have like five partners. All right. What was the initial investment? We started out small, still in campus with like 50K, but way before that, before they like the initial 50K, that's when you now come together and say, let's put some 50K together. Before that, I started out with 3000 Bob. 3000 Bob, yeah. What did you spend the 3000 Bob on? I spent the 3000 Bob on a friend of mine who helped me make my first website. All right, so 3000 sharing was spent on the website. Yeah. All right, did you have plans to cash the website? Yeah. Uh-huh. The website was to actually help me show my clients that I'm serious. All right, so which clients are you talking about? The interior design clients? Yeah, both interior design and graphic clients. All right, so like what buttons did you have at the top? I had like a photography, I had graphics and I had interior design. So you had photography, graphics and interior design? Yeah. All right, is the website still alive? Yeah, but it's now way different. It's improved, but it's the same website you said that you improved. Yeah, it's the same website, but way different. Way different now. All right, because you've learned over time. Yeah, I've learned over time. All right, I'd like to get into the digital, media aspect of things. Yeah. And how you, why did you get the courage to start a magazine, man? Like, it takes a lot. Yeah, it takes a lot. And it hasn't been easy, but you know, you just have to take a lot of risks and just go get into it, fail and come back up. So I started when I was in my second year. We did a teaser with a friend of mine who's the co-founder. Her name is Jed. She's doing her masters in USAO. I called her and then we just started. We actually did our first teaser overnight. It was a 10 page teaser and then we just, it was a free digital issue. So we just shared it all over WhatsApp and social media. And guys were so excited about it. So we came back, we had a meeting and we said, yo Jed, let's do this. So we went out, did a lot of research, came up with a lot of cool stories and we made our first issue. You made your first issue. So when you're getting into the business, into the magazine world or the magazine business, you, what are some of the requirements? One, I know you need to cover niche, you need a niche, you need the topics that you're going to be talking about. Exactly. That people are going to be looking for in the magazine. What are some of the other stuff that you need to set up a magazine, even a web magazine? Okay, so first you need content. Because if you don't have content then, you don't have the magazine. So with the content comes content creators. So you need very awesome writers, you need very cool photographers, you need very cool graphic designers. You need a whole team to come up with a very awesome magazine. People are going to understand your vision and who are going to do it with utmost best. So content and content creators, that's all you need. And you need the visuals to pop as well. Exactly. Because that's what attracts people to the magazine. All right, so there's always a contentious issue when it comes to the world of magazines. And the people who make magazines have always been accused of using sex to sell. Always. The cover is always a beautiful woman and she's always have dressed if not naked. Pretty much. What do you have to say about it? I think that's not a good way to go, especially like, for example, as our target audience is the youth between the ages of 18 to around 30. So I think that the best way to go about it is to see how do I actually get my message out there without having being a valga on my images or being a nudist or something. Being too obvious. Yeah. So you need to be extra creative on your covers or your images. So creativity beats. Yeah. Definitely. Stereotype. Definitely. Any time. Any time. You believe that. I believe that. All right, all right. On to the next question now. And this one is about building the brand. Yeah. Yes, because when I go to a magazine stand, I'm going to pick the ones that I've seen since time immemorial because I trust. Pretty much. All right, how do you beat that? How do you be that guy that I'm going to pick when I go to a magazine stand when I open my browser and I click to your icon? Yeah. So first of all, you'll need to be a very experienced creative like I am. First. First. Secondly, you need to understand the brand identity. Basically, brand identity is what people identify you as. Like, for example, like SafariCon, people know it's green and red and has a curve on the logo. Something like that. Then you need to be highly appealing. For example, if you look at some of our covers, I don't know if you guys are going to show this. Yes, we're going to have some on screen. Yeah. If you see some of our covers, they're very interesting. They're unique. They're not normal. If you look at it, you're going to be like, oh, wow, what's this? I want to look inside. Something like that. You need to be very, very appealing. You need to capture the attention from the top. In the first three seconds, somebody sees that magazine. You just want, I want to buy this. I want to see the pictures. Even if they're not interested in reading, I just want to see the pictures. All right. You get. So sometimes you appreciate the people that come to you and say, your magazine looks so cool. Exactly. You take no offense since they didn't read the content that is inside. No, I'm going to be curious. Okay, did you go through it? Did you read? Or did you just look at it? Do you have questions for sure? Yeah. All right. We have your Instagram right here, the GlomagKE. Yeah. You can find them on Instagram at GlomagKE. Yeah. And yes, we can sample a cover maybe. Yeah. Check us up. Uh-huh. Yeah. Oh, let's find the... That one over there. The blue one. No, this one. Yeah, this is the blue one. The blue one. This one. The one with the flowers. Yeah. All right, let's see the one with the flowers right there. Post with the flowers. Right up there. The one on top of this one. But that is a promo for an issue that is coming. It's already out. This is already out. Yeah. But this was a promo for it. Yeah. This is not a cover. Yeah. Let's see the cover of the magazine. Yeah, that one. All right. Who's the star of the show here? This is Maggie Wambogo. She's the former Miss UON. Former Miss UON? Yeah. All right. Yeah. You can see how the cover is. It's not like any other cover. It has a very cool background. It pops. Exactly. And the background matches with what she's wearing. She's wearing. All right, so this takes a long creative process. Yeah, it's a long creative process. You need a makeup artist. You need a stylist. You need a very awesome photographer. And all of these guys have to understand the end concept that you want to achieve. They need to work like a car assembly. Exactly. Exactly. So from this step to this step to this step. And the first step is dependent on the last step. On the last step. And the last step is dependent on the first step. On the first step. Yeah. All right. Do you end up sometimes having two covers and you have to pick one? Yeah, pretty much. Like this one. We had two awesome covers and we had to choose between two. Yeah. It's a boardroom kind of situation. Exactly. Guys want this. Guys want this. And you need a tiebreaker. All right. So in the long run you get to pick. So this is how you get to stand out. You need to pop. Exactly. You need to pop. You need to pop. And you need to catch people. All right. Yeah. Caching. How do you cache it? We sell digitally. We sell digitally. We have an online shop. It's shop.glomag.co.ke. And we have different modes of payment. So shop.glomag.co.ke is different from the Glomag Magazine website. Yeah. But you can still go to Glomag.co.ke. And get a link there. Yeah. Slash shop. All right. Yeah. So the shop, what do you sell at the shop, apart from the magazine? We just sell magazines. You just sell magazines strictly. Yeah, strictly. It's a limited market. Yeah. All right. So on the people buy digital copies. Exactly. That is the one way that you guys cache it. Yeah. What is another way that you guys cache it from the magazine? Advertisement. Advertisement. Yeah. We have full spread, half spread, and quarter spread. Full spread, half spread, and quarter spread. Yeah. We sound like we are talking about bread. So maybe you can explain full spread. So people don't assume we are talking about it. So full spread is basically a full page advert. Half is a half page advert and quarter advert. It's self-explanatory. Yeah, it's just that basic. So adverts and actual sales. Yeah. All right. How are the sales so far? Do canyons have this culture of reading and buy magazines? For sure, canyons don't read. Canyons don't read. You read as much. Yeah, according to my research. But we've just had to see the best way on how to actually make people buy the magazine, especially the youth. We had to actually review our pricing so that guys, because you see our target market are not necessarily people who are working. It's mostly people who are in campuses. Or people who are grinding. Exactly. So we had to put a pricing that's very accommodating. Yeah, and satisfactory to that guy. And it's not going to be, oh, that's too much. So we set a very comfortable pricing, which is 200. And we have another issue which sells at 250. It has more informative, educative information. The exclusive issue. Exactly. And then the normal issue. Yeah. So you can just decide between the two. The other thing we found out is that guys don't want, guys might buy a hard copy, but then they won't treat it as much. Because nowadays, nobody wants to go carrying something. You just want to carry things. Yeah. So we found it easier to just make the issue available on gadgets. So as long as you have it on your computer, on your phone, or on your tablet, that's the easiest way to go. Because anybody, whether you're driving, whether you're on a train or something, you can just trade it. OK, OK. So there's this guy called Ryan Leslie. He's an independent artist now. And he was complaining how it was sent a label. And they first sold a number of records. The second time, they sold less. And he was wondering why did the label just market to the people who bought the first time directly and sell it to them directly. And then go out on a wild goose chase. All right, do you guys have like a system where you monitor your customers? And what is the importance of that? Yes, we actually have a community. We have an exclusive page where guys actually come and join the community. So once you join the community, you join the community. Is the right word for that? Yeah. So once you join the community, you join by subscribing via email. And we obviously do weekly newsletters. And that's how we actually get in touch with the customers on a weekly basis. Right. Yeah, so that way we keep our guys updated with news, information and stuff from the magazine. All right, and do you get to take the opinion in as well? Yes, we also do have a review platform as well where guys send us emails on things to improve, things they need to read about and such stuff. All right. Somebody who has seen it all from campus till this date, what is the importance of research in a startup? Research is kind of like a binoculars. You want to go over there, but you can't see it. So what you do, you do research. And research is pretty much like a real-time binoculars whereby you can see clear, but once you use your binoculars, you're going to see more clear. So research enables you to plant strategically and it enables your plant to become more solid and it's highly calculated in short. All right, so your moves are calculated, but you do your research. All right, when you say you guys did your research, being a company that started from 3,000 shillings to setup a website, to 50,000 shillings to make it a company and all that, what are some of the ways and tricks you guys used to do your research on a budget? Okay, so one of the easiest ways is to just set up a link, set up an online form, put up the questions that you want and set up a prize at the end of it so that people are excited to participate. To answer the question. Exactly. And as long as, but the thing is, don't set too much high pricing, just something convenient so that then people won't give you fake answers. You still want legit answers. Just a small incentive and guys, you're just gonna get a whole lot of data that you're gonna use, yeah. All right. And data is, we're living in a data era, man. Exactly. Data is cash now. Yeah, yeah. All right, what is the future of Glow Magazine? The future of Glow Magazine is pretty huge. We're having discussions with some partners in Ghana and we are hoping to head to Ghana very soon. Adventure in Ghana. All right, so you guys want to be African. Yeah. In Africa Magazine and then take it far wide. Yeah. All right, xenophobia, you guys are not scared. No, I think the best way to tackle these things is just head on and to actually talk about it. And as Glow, we're definitely gonna be writing about it. You're going to be talking about xenophobia. Yeah, pretty much. You're going to attack it head on. Yeah. All right, I'd like to get your opinion now. So do you think Africa has a chance in being an open market like that? Since you guys are heading to Ghana, maybe we'll head to Ghana next, maybe to South Africa. Do we have that chance of being an open market where we can sell our, a Kenyan, a Nairobian or a Kenyan can sell his goods or products or services across the continent? Yeah, we do have a very good chance, especially that now our continent is growing and that the East African community is bringing up very nice policies that are going to allow exporters nice incentives and great freedom. And I think we have a very great chance in improving our businesses if we increase our chances of export. Yeah. And if we increase our target market. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Bigger the market. The bigger the market. Exactly. All right. So being a business person, I'm pretty sure you know the importance of saving. So we have a question on Facebook and the question is all about the merry-go-round or the charm of, you've heard of them? Yes, I have. Have you been part of one? Yes, I have. All right. So do you think they are, they work? Yes, they do work. Sometimes earlier this year, my company Smith, I just limited, took part in a campaign run by a Britain investment. And this campaign was generally driven to actually the youth. And it was basically about saving. So why would such a big company tell these young guys to actually save? Because they actually see the importance of saving. For example, when I was in campus, I had to actually save up so that I can invest more on the magazine and on the company, right? That's where I'm where I am today because I saved some money and I invested it and it gave me very nice returns, yeah. All right. But when it comes to merry-go-rounds, what do you call this? This says they were, you have... Well, you have guys contribute and then... Contributing and then somebody's given a big chunk of the money. And then next time it's the other person. You think it works that, that kind of situation? I think it works to some extent, to some extent. But my personal opinion will be, why not save the same personally or individually? Because the same amount you contribute is actually the same amount you get. You get in the long run, right? There's no interest. Yeah, there's no interest. There's no particular added value. Just that you get a huge chunk of money at once. All right. So why not just save it? Why not just save it? Yeah, and save it with like a cycle or an insurance company where you're going to get interest. In the long run, yeah. So the money doesn't just sit there? Yeah. So that is your opinion right there? That's my opinion. All right, thank you very much for coming through. Thank you. How can they find you guys online? They can find Glomagazine, Glomake. And they can find me by Eric Smith on Instagram. All right, thank you very much for coming. Thank you very much, Barry. Doing what you're doing. Thank you very much. We appreciate you so much. We have come to the end of the second segment or the second interview of the day. And we had Eric Smith, the CEO and founder of Glomagazine, a digital magazine. You can find them online. And be sure to support Kenyan content as they head to Ghana. My name is Barry Mossers or it's very more on social media. Don't go nowhere.

What's going on, everyone? Sam here with Leighton Sports Cards, ripping, let me switch our, not really, Milan, to be honest. I don't meant to say. Yeah, what do you mean to skip your question? Yeah, sorry, Milan, sorry. Yeah, I'm basically just doing the local family thing. Nice. Ripping one box of 23 Leaf Autograph Football Jersey Edition for David W. Good luck here, David. Let's do it. Chris Davis, too, now. How much is Chris Davis getting paid per year? Would they break that? They had to have broken that contract down. It's like a 30-year payment plan. He's still getting paid by the Mets. Hello, our remorse. How we doing? What's our remorse? All right, here we go. Is that what I think it is? Yes it is. Bo Jackson. Nice, man. Bo knows on a Raiders jersey. He signed that well, too, man. That's sick. That's awesome. That is a gorgeous Bo jersey, man. The size of that signature really took up the entire four, basically. Well, congrats on that, David. That is an awesome, awesome jersey, man. These are tempting, man. These are tempting. I'm going to be honest, tempting for myself. Hey, let's go, David. Good stuff, buddy. We'll get him right out to you. Thanks as always for the support, my friend.

BioExcel Webinar #71 GROMACS PMX for accurate estimation of free energy differences
Accurate estimation of free energy differences has enormous applications, from understanding a fundamental biochemical process to rational drug design. Statistical mechanics based approaches, such as alchemical free energy calculations, are proven to be highly accurate in calculating the free energy difference between two chemically well-defined states. In this webinar, I will provide an overview of calculating free energy change due to protein mutation using the open-source PMX software and web server. I will also show results from large-scale alchemical calculations of relative and absolute binding free energy for protein-ligand systems. In the end, a brief overview of the ongoing development in PMX will be presented. Sudarshan Behera is a postdoctoral researcher in the Computational Biomolecular Dynamics group, at the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences, Goettingen. He's involved in developing methods for identifying and tackling convergence issues in non-equilibrium alchemical free energy calculations, as well as in the development of PMX software. Prior to this, he investigated the structure and dynamics of various enzymes using MD and enhanced sampling methods during his Ph. D. at JNCASR, Bangalore, India.

Welcome everybody to the last webinar of this spring and exactly by Excel webinar number 71. And it's a pleasure for me to have here Sudashan Beheira from the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Science in Gottingen.

Isn't involved in developing methods for identifying and tackling convergence issue in an equilibrium alchemical free energy calculation, as well as in the development of the PMX software that you will tell us about today. No prior prior before it was is this PhD in Bangalore, India, where you want to get the structure and the dynamics of different type of enzyme using molecular dynamic simulation and and some an unsampling methods. So I'm curious to see what he will tell us about PMX. So now I will stop sharing and give you the chance to share your spin. Please go ahead. Okay, so can you see my screen. Yes, perfect. Okay. Thank you, Alessandra for your kind introduction. And welcome everyone once again to our bio extra webinar on accurate estimation of free energy differences using open source softwares. So I will be sharing how you can use grow max in combination with PMX to to calculate free energy differences across various systems. And I'm Sudarshan Behar as today's presenter. And in today's webinar, I'll briefly introduce you to molecular dynamics and alchemical free energy calculation so that all of us are on the same page, and it will be easier for us to discuss the rest of the slides. So by which I'll also talk a bit on PMX softwares and web servers, applying which will then look into three different test cases, and those test cases are free energy change due to mutation absolute protein binding free energy, relative protein binding free energy. And at the end, we'll conclude the webinar and talk about what we are planning to develop in the future. Okay. So with that, let us start and go a bit deeper into MD setup. How do we visually run a MD simulation. We try to model the system as close to experiment as possible by taking the crystal structure of protein, taking the right salt concentration, if like and poses available take the right like and pose then dissolve in water, etc. Then bring the system into the interested thermodynamic state by using temperature and thermal pressure coupling using thermostat and barostat. Then by applying an external force field, we evolve the system using Newton's equation of motion. As you can see in this trajectory, which is nothing but the evolution of this particular system from the initial state, you can calculate various interesting properties. And one of the most interesting properties that we can calculate using molecular dynamics is free energy. And why is free energy such an essential property to us why it is so much important to the community. Let us discuss a bit on that before moving further. And let us take the example of ligand binding process. Free energy actually drives various physical and biochemical processes, you can understand many biochemical process like ligand binding using free energy surface. And the free energy of binding delta G binding is nothing but the difference between free energy of the bound state and the unbound state. And if you have knowledge about the overall free energy surface, then you can talk about the mechanism of ligand binding. If you have just the information about delta G of binding, then then you can talk about how strongly a ligand binds to a protein. And if you know that you can tune the ligand or the protein so that you have a better or a stronger binder. Similarly, for protein folding problem, say if you have information about the free energy change due to folding or the entire free energy surface, then you can talk about how to change the protein in a way that you can have more stable protein at its folded state. So all these properties, all these phenomena what it basically tells us is that free energy is a very essential property and if you have knowledge about it, then you can do various things including rational drug design, better protein engineering and stuff like that. Okay. So with that motivation of why we should study free energy, how to calculate it, how to calculate it using molecular dynamic simulations. So there are various ways out of which I'm listing here three major widely known methods. One of them is all chemical methods such as free energy perturbation and thermodynamic integration which are going to talk in future in future slides. Also, you can use biasing techniques such as umbrella sampling, metadynamics, etc. or salvation methods like MMPBSA and MMGBSA. So all these methods are focused mostly on or entirely on the alchemical methods. So let us discuss a bit more detail about alchemical methods before going into results. And let's talk about this particular interesting case where we want to study protein ligand binding. Suppose you divide and devise an experiment or suppose you devise a computational protocol to calculate the binding affinity or binding free energy of ligand A to this particular protein using molecular dynamics. How you can do is you can actually study the entire process of binding and unbinding and say this is the free energy surface, then what you are interested in is to sample the entire free energy surface. And as you know, sampling such an entire free energy surface is computationally extremely costly because you have to spend a lot of time in crossing this particular barrier rather than just sampling the difference. Suppose you start from ligand unbound state, it is really difficult in simulation to see ligand unbinding because of this large barrier. But what we are actually interested in is just the difference between ligand unbound and bound state. We are not interested in sampling the entire free energy surface. So we can just add to this complexity. Suppose we have another ligand, ligand B, and we want to know which of these two ligand ligand A or ligand B binds to the targets at a stronger affinity. So that is calculating the relative binding free energy delta, delta G. So for that, how we can do it computationally using a traditional method is calculate delta G of binding for ligand A using very expensive computational method then do the same for ligand B. And the calculate, then calculate the difference, sorry, this is getting okay, then calculate the difference using just the difference between these two. But calculating this following this traditional method is very expensive as I have mentioned because you have to sample the entire free energy surface. Can we devise a way in which we can calculate the same property delta, delta G at a much cheaper price? Yes, we can do that. So somehow we have the ability to change ligand A to ligand B in water itself through a unphysical alchemical states. Similarly, we have the ability to change ligand A to ligand B when it is bound to protein alchemically or in a unphysical way in say very fast way in a cheaper way. Then what we can do is since it is a cycle closure, you can calculate delta GB minus delta GA is same as delta GPL minus delta GL. So you can calculate the delta delta G to be just the difference between this and this instead of this and this. Okay, so now that we have understood the problem and we have a solution that we can calculate the delta, delta G using alchemical methods going through unphysical states. But how does one do it in a practical application? There are many ways of doing that. One of the most popular ones is equilibrium FEP, equilibrium free energy perturbation method, where both the ligand states are defined and coupled with a coupling parameter known as lambda. When lambda is equal to 0, you are in lambda A state, sorry ligand A state, suppose ligand A is methane. When lambda is equal to 1, you are in ligand B, which is suppose you have methanol, so you want to go from methane to methanol. So in equilibrium FEP what you do is you change the coupling parameter in a discrete way. And at various lambda values, say lambda is equal to 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, till 0.9, you run equilibrium MD in the range of nanosecond to microsecond. And then collect del G value at each and every lambda window and some of them will give you the change in free energy due to the ligand mutation or going from methane to methanol. One more way of doing the same is non-equilibrium thermodynamic integration in which you don't divide the entire lambda space into various discrete lambda windows. Rather you just run equilibrium MD only at lambda is equal to 0 and lambda is equal to 1 state in the say nanosecond to microsecond range. And then from lambda is equal to 0 state, you start many non-equilibrium transitions in just picosecond range, say hundreds of picosecond. You run many, say you run hundreds of such non-equilibrium transitions starting from lambda is equal to 0 to lambda is equal to 1 in a very fast non-equilibrium way. And those transitions are called forward transitions because you are going from 0 to 1. Similarly, you can start from lambda is equal to 1 state and go to 0 and run many non-equilibrium transitions. And let us call that as reverse transitions. So you have 100 forward transitions and 100 reverse transitions. Then from this non-equilibrium forward and reverse transition, you can collect the work values associated with them or the work done on the system. And then you plot the distribution of those work. And this is the distribution of this work look like say just in a typical schematic presentation. This is distribution of the forward transitions. This is the distribution of the reverse transition. And then what Krux fluctuation theorem states is that if you have such distribution, the point of interactions with the point of intersection between these two overlap is nothing but the change in free energy, nothing but the delta delta g. So that's how you can calculate the change in free energy or the delta delta g using non-equilibrium thermodynamic integration as well. And throughout this webinar, all the test cases that I'm going to present are based on non-equilibrium thermodynamic integration. Then the question that comes is why non-equilibrium TI? Because as you might have already noticed that in non-equilibrium TI, we are focused only on sampling of the real physical states, unlike in equilibrium where we sample unphysical state and spend a lot of time in unphysical states. Also, if you have the true end states available from experiments, say the example of ligand binding energy to a protein, you need both the end states to be say hollow state of protein and apostate of proteins, apostate of the protein. And if both the states are available experimentally, their crystal structures are available, then you can incorporate them, both of them in our non-equilibrium method because you are running equilibrium MD only at the lamda end states. And that thing you cannot do in equilibrium FEP. And if you do that, we'll see in future slides that leads to much improved accuracy compared to not taking both the true end states. Similarly, since you have hundreds of non-equilibrium short transitions, say 100 picosecond transitions, hundreds of them, you can paralyze them in a better way compared to just having few intermediate lamda. So, there are reports showing that non-equilibrium TI converge to the free energy estimate at a much less computational time than equilibrium FEP. But also one has to be careful while doing non-equilibrium TI because of the work overlap in many cases when you have really large perturbation, or when you are perturbing the say entire ligand, then what happened is the work, forward work and the reverse work don't overlap. In such scenario, the delta-delta G value that you calculate might not be correct. So we have to be careful when doing non-equilibrium TI, especially looking into the work overlap, work distribution overlap. And all these simulations, the equilibrium MD and non-equilibrium transitions, you can use Gromax open source software, which is also part of BioXL to do the simulations. Great. So if all the simulations can be done using Gromax, then what is the problem? I mean, where are the problems comes into picture? The problem is the system setup. It is not easy to set up the system, especially creating the structure and the topology for alchemical transformation. Say we take the example of a ligand perturbation, a ligand we are calculating delta-delta G of changing a ligand where chlorine is in ortho position to meta position. Then in the PDB file or in the structure file, what we need is information about both the chlorine positions. Also in the topology file, what we need is information about both the ligand parameters, ligand A parameter where chlorine is in ortho position and ligand B parameter. So chlorine is in meta positions. And creating and manipulating this PDB and topology files manually or by writing a script by yourself to do it, how cumbersome it is, I think most of all, most of all of you know it if you have ever tweaked a topology or PDB file for Gromax. But then add complexity of doing the same for a large number of ligands or large number of protein mutations or a large number of nucleic acid mutations. Then you think about the complexity or how error prone such a calculation would be if you do it by yourself manually. To resolve that particular problem, that's where our tool PMX comes into picture, which was developed in the Groot Lab. What it does is it creates the structure and topology files in an automatic manner without much intervention from the user and without any error. So you can use this particular tool to study various interesting properties like what the various reports from Buddy Groot has shown is that you can use PMX and Gromax for protein ligand binding free energy, protein nucleic acid binding free energy, thermostability change due to mutation and protein-protein binding free energy. And we are going to talk about a few of them in the future slides. Also, from the same group, there is a PMX web server which was designed just for generating hybrid structure and topology for amino acid mutation for free energy calculation. So I would suggest you to have a look into this particular web server if you are interested in calculating free energy change due to protein mutation. Great. So with that introduction to MD, alchemical methods and PMX software and web server, let us look into the application of PMX and Gromax and go into various free various test cases. So for the first test case, we are going to look into protein mutations. And in this, I'm going to present a paper from the group lab which was published in 2016 where they study large scan free energy free energy calculations for protein mutation. So let us try to understand the problem and why they I mean what they are trying to do and why they are trying to do. So let us again devise an experiment or say computational tool or a computational method to calculate the delta G of folding like how much the free energy difference between the unfolded state and folded state we want to calculate for wild type. Also, when you mutate a particular residue of the protein, how much this delta G folding changes. So how do you want to calculate that? Say we start from the unfolded state of wild type protein and do a folding experiment and calculate delta G folding for wild type. Then you do the same for the mutant and take the difference to be delta G folding mutation and that will give you how much free energy change happen for the protein thermo stability or protein folding due to the change that due to the mutation. But as you might have already noticed that doing such a simulation or folding simulation for a relatively larger peptide it is almost impossible. So is experiment it is really expensive. So can you again devise alchemical protocol to calculate this delta G of folding mutation at a cheaper rate. Yes, you can do that. What you can do is in the unfolded state itself you would change the mutation and calculate delta G of mutation in unfolded state. Similarly, you can calculate delta G of mutation in the folded state and then take the difference which is same as that of delta delta G folding mutation. And this again you can do it using agromax and PMX this alchemical transformation and calculation. Great. So now that we have understood what they are planning to do what the authors are planning to do in this particular work. Then the question comes is why we want to do it. I mean why it is essential for us to understand I think most of you know. Suppose you have the power to call to know that what mutation has how much impact on the delta G of folding what mutation will give you a stronger folded state. Or what mutation will give you a folded state which is more thermodynamically stable. Then you can actually engineer the protein to become more thermostable so that you can use it in a really harsh condition at an industrial setting way above 100 degree centigrade. And if you have and if you have the ability to go beyond 100 degree centigrade or at a higher temperature, you can always increase the catalytic activity of the enzyme because as you know R and US equation, enzyme activity is in exponentially increases with temperature. Similarly, with having idea of how much folding energy change due to protein mutation or protein protein binding change due to protein mutation you can engineer better protein protein interface which are good drug target as well. Okay. So now we have the motivation also to study such processes. So let us look into the results of this particular paper what what what they have come what what are the significant results in this particular work. So the authors took various protein in this work one of them is Barney's where they have mutated at 55 position 119 19 mutations they have done and for all these mutations experimental delta delta G value is available. And as you can see here and the mutations here are point are marked as red, red residues. So you can see how the calculated delta delta G correlates well with experimental delta delta G most of you most of them if you can see they fall in a nice straight line with overall error absolute unsigned error is nothing but how much deviates from experiment is well within one kilo calorie per mole just 3.8 And more than 60% of the data points falls within one vehicle per mole, which I think is a really remarkable achievement, provided that we are using a cheaper all chemical method to get this delta delta G. Great. So, this is the overall results, but let us dig a slightly deeper into it and look on to some more more results of the same Barney system. So in this particular work, the authors have also used six different force field to calculate the same to get the same to compare across force fields. And what they have found is charm performs better than other force field but overall if you see all the force fields perform relatively similar to each other because if you see the overall error is around 4.5 kJ per mole between four and five kJ per mole for various force field on an average. And interesting to see is that the consensus approach when I say consensus approach when you combine the results from different force fields and take the average of the results, it performs better than any particular individual force field approach. So if you have charm results and amber results, if you combine charm and amber results and the average result is better than charm individual or amber individual results, which is something really something really fascinating to know. So what we basically suggest or what the authors basically suggest here is if you are doing protein free energy, protein free mutation free energy calculations, then do it for do the same using multiple force fields and take the average result because that will give you a better accuracy with experiment. Also, what the authors found is that when you have a charge conserving mutations, like say you are going from alanine to phenylalanine in the protein, then the error is much less compared to charge changing mutation. When you have charge changing mutation like say you are going from alanine to aspartate, you have results, you have error in the range of four to seven kJ per mole but if you have charge conserving mutation you have just within 4.5 kJ per mole. And this also makes sense because charge changing mutations are, they are much larger perturbation because you are changing the charge and hence what overall it says is that whenever you are trying to predict free energy change due to charge changing mutation, you should not expect as accuracy as charge conserving mutations. Okay, so this was results from the Barnett systems, but the authors also went ahead and applied the method on various different other protein system. One of the other protein systems is a SNAs where they have done 24 mutations again because experimental data is available for all this due to 20 mutations. And as you can see the results is very similar to what we saw in the previous slides compared to Barnett's where you have the consensus approach performing better than single force field approach. Other than just the Delta Delta G calculated and comparing with experiment, they also compare for various protein systems, the calculated Delta Delta G with experimental available Delta Tm. What is Delta Tm? It is changing melting temperature due to mutation, which one would expect to correlate well with Delta Delta G that is free energy change due to mutation. And as you can see for various protein system, the calculated Delta Delta G correlates really nicely with Delta Tm with the correlation coefficient of 0.86. And what it suggests is that this particular approach of using non-equilibrium alchemical methods using Gromax and PMX provide you or predicts the Delta Delta G accurately for various protein systems. Okay, so in summary, the non-equilibrium alchemical methods performs as good as experiments, but at a much cheaper price. And the authors also show that consensus approach or combination of various force field approach performs better than a single force field approach. And charge-conservative mutations are easier to predict than charge-changing mutations. And calculated Delta Delta G is shown to correlate well with Delta Tm, that is change in melting temperature of the protein due to mutation. Great, so that was overall discussion on the test case one, where we looked into change in protein free energy due to a mutation. Now let us go into the second test case where we calculate free energy of absolute ligand binding. When I say absolute protein ligand binding free energy, what I mean is basically the binding free energy of ligand to a protein. This is nothing else. Okay. And in this, again, I'm going to present a work from DeGroot Lab, which was published in 2021 in Chemical Science, you can go and have a look into this paper. And again, the thermodynamic cycle we have already looked into it, but say we discuss again about it a bit is that we have seen how difficult it is to calculate this in a traditional computational approach. Rather, you can devise a alchemical approach where you can decouple the ligand in water as well as in the complex and calculate the Delta G of binding to be Delta G Pl minus Delta G L. But why would one prefer to do such a calculation? Where are its application? Oh, there are lots of lots of application as we have discussed initially, especially to understand how ligand binds to a protein and stuff like that. Other than that, the most interesting and fascinating application is in drug discovery. Say we are talking about a simple drug discovery pipeline where we first identify a target and validate it. When I say target, it's a protein, say. Then we look into, then we identify a drug or identify a ligand which binds to the target very strongly that is known as ligand lead identification. That means the functional group of the ligand and optimize it so that we get a better binder that is lead optimization and then various testing and finally approval. So the absolute binding free energy comes into play in the third stage of drug discovery pipeline where we want to screen through various or say millions of billions of ligands and trying to find out which one is best binder or what are those few ligands which bind to the protein at a stronger affinity than others. In a traditional setting, docking score is usually used, which is really less accurate. But if you have a highly accurate absolute binding free energy approach that I'm going to show in this slide how accurate results are, then you can incorporate such a highly accurate absolute binding free energy in lead identification and you can get much more accurate result. Great. So now we have a very good motivation to do absolute binding free energy. So let us look into the overall performance of absolute binding free energy protocol that we have devised using non-equilibrium alchemy. So here the authors again took seven different targets, seven different proteins like CDK2, CMAT, Galactene and many others and 128 ligand systems. And this is the overall Delta G calculated versus Delta G experiment plot. As you can see again, it is really accurate. Most of them fall within 1 kcal per mole. But the overall results are the error, absolute unsigned error is around 5 kcal per mole. But if you look into individual cases like JNK1 or P38 alpha, you can see that the error is much less in this case around 3 kcal per mole. Okay. But there are also cases like type 2 where the error is much larger around 11 kcal per mole. And why in type 2 especially the error is such high around 11 kcal per mole whereas everywhere else it is just within 5 kcal per mole. The authors speculate that it is because of the poor representation of the apostate. Because a crystal structure of the apostate of type 2 is not available from experiment in the literature whereas it is available for all the rest six target system. And we'll see how actually the real APO versus the modeled APO affect the overall performance or the overall accuracy of our Delta G calculations in the next slide. So this is the plot again. So here we have apostate from X-ray available for six different targets except type 2. And as you can see on the left plot, you model the apostate just by removing ligand from X-ray holostate. So that is not the real apostate but just a modeled apostate. And you get error to be around 7 kcal per mole which is relatively high. But if you take the true apostate into account and do the same calculations both the true apostate and true holostate into account and calculate the and do the same what you get is the error within 5 kcal per mole just 4.4 kcal per mole. And this significant improvements shows the power of taking apostate into account in our simulations which non-equilibrium alchemy using Gromax and PMX provide but you cannot do the same in equilibrium FEP. Of course you can do but that will come at a much computational expense than non-equilibrium alchemy. Again if we look into individual cases there is a significant improvement especially in the case of P38 alpha where you see if you just take a modeled apo you have the error around 11 kcal per mole. But if you take the true apo the error is around 3 kcal per mole. So there is a improvement of around 8 kcal per mole but just by taking the true apostate into account if it is available from experiment. Yes for P38 alpha it is available. Then the authors thought maybe there is something more interesting going on especially only for P38 alpha because such an improvement is not seen in other case. So they dig a slightly deeper they dig much deeper into this particular case P38 alpha and what they found is it is a single rotomeric flip of a residue 39106 which leads to such an improvement in accuracy. So let us look into that particular result. So this is the hollow structure and the simulation the T106 through 9 residue is in one particular rotomeric state. And if you just remove the ligand from here and model the apostate the error you get is around 11 kcal per mole which I have already shown earlier. But if you take the real apostate into account from available crystal structure and do the simulation the 39106 is mostly in a different rotomeric state than hollow structure. And that leads to an improvement of to a great improvement and the and the error is just within 3 kcal per mole. I don't know whether you are able to see it or not. I hope they should solve this or not. Okay, so what what okay if you are not able to see the numbers the error is 3 kcal per mole. So you see the improvement from 11 to 3 kcal per mole just by taking the true apostate into account where the difference is only a rotomeric state. Of course there could be many other difference but we don't know but how would you confirm that this particular rotomeric flip is the only issue or is the only contributing factor for such an improvement in the accuracy. For that what the authors did is they took the hollow state and they changed nothing from the hollow state to contract or model the apostate except only changing the rotomeric state of this particular ligand. This particular residue and why it is not moving sorry there is some problem with the slides. Okay, let me share again. So we are seeing that how do you say that it is only the rotomeric flip that contributes to sustain improved in the accuracy. So for that what the author did is they took the hollow structure and remove the ligand and constructed the apostate structure just like in the first case. And this time they just flipped the rotomer of T106 they did they did change nothing other than just the rotomeric state of T106. And what they found again if you are not able to see the numbers is the accuracy to be around 3 kcal per mole which basically tells or concludes that it is this particular rotomer which contributes to such an improved in the accuracy or a sampling problem if you are not taking the true apostate into account. So in summary, again non equilibrium alchemy can give you very accurate absolute binding free energy which is very close to experimental measurement but at much at a much cheaper price. Also if you have the experimental structure of true hollow and apostate available from from experiment. It is advised that you took you take both into account in your simulation so that you have a much improved accuracy as we have seen in six different test cases six different target systems. And we also saw that a single rotomeric flip can have a significant impact on the accuracy so it's better to sample all possible rotomeric flip of near the active site. Right, so that was the second test case so let us move to our last and third test case where we look into relative protein ligand binding free energy when I say relative what I mean is that we have two different ligands and methane and methanol we want to know which one binds the stronger. How much change in free energy of binding happens in going from methane to methanol one ligand to other ligand that is what I mean by saying relative binding free energy. Great. And here again I'm presenting a paper from the same lab the group lab, which was published in 2020 in chemical science. And here also the same the thermodynamic cycle we have discussed a lot of time in these slides. So I'm not going into detail again. You can just construct one cycle closer and the horizontal leg would be equal to vertical legs and delta delta G can be calculated using delta GPL minus delta GL. And what are its application of relative what what are the applications of relative binding free energy, there are many, but one of the most important again it comes in drug discovery pipeline and this we have seen that how absolute binding free energy if you have an accurate way of calculating leads to accurate identification of lead. Similarly, relative binding free energy contributes in lead optimization where you have already a ligand and you want to know what kind of modification to the ligand leads to a better binder leads to a more stronger ligand binding affinity. So in that case you can use relative binding free energy so in drug discovery pipeline you can see that in between we have both absolute and relative binding free energy contributing. And with that motivation let us look into the results. So here the authors went and went for slightly larger systems slightly larger number of systems. They looked into 13 different targets, 13 different proteins and 482 ligand A to ligand B conversions. Also you can call them adjust so they looked for 482 adjusts. They calculated that they calculated the delta delta G or the relative binding free energy using commercial software commercial software FEP plus also using Gromax and PMX. And when they used Gromax and PMX they used GAF as well as season FF force fields for the ligand. And while using FEP plus they used OPL S3 which is a golden standard for FEP plus. And as you can see, if you look into slightly closer into the results, GAF performs slightly better with an error of 3.9 kW per mole compared to season FF. But the combination of these two results or the consensus approach if you take the results and average them, it is better than the individual force fields it is around 3.6 kW per mole. And when you have the consensus approach you see the results or the error that you get is very close to that of you can get from a commercial software. So what basically the authors are trying to say here is that you have open source software like Gromax and PMX you can use them using various force fields and the consensus approach will give you as accurate results as a commercial software like FEP plus. And consensus approach again here performs better than a single force field approach to be remembered. Okay, again on individual test cases individual protein target cases you can see that the performance is almost similar to the overall case where the consensus approach the square blue points performs as very close to that of the commercial FEP plus approach where you have a dark maroon squares and you can also notice that from Gromax and PMX using non-equilibrium alchemy we spend less computational time compared to that of FEP plus. Great. And then the question comes is why the consensus approach performs better than a single force field approach. Right. So for that we look into one particular target CMAT and we look into its dataset of 25 inhibitor. And what you can see from here is that the results from CAF and CGNFF points in opposite direction to that of experiment especially in those cases where it is marked as X say we look into this particular case. The yellow bar is from experiment and the blue bar you can see it is the result is more positive compared to yellow bar and CGNFF results are more negative compared to the yellow bar and hence if you take an average it will be closer to that of experiment. And it happens in almost 14 out of it happens in 14 out of 25 cases for CMAT inhibitor dataset and hence overall there is an improvement in accuracy if you combine results from various force fields. And with that let me summarize the results from the third part or the third test case and what we saw here is non-equilibrium alchemical methods using Gromax and PMX performs on par with commercial FEP plus on various protein ligand systems. So overall accuracy with experiment is less than 1k Kalpamol which is which is really remarkable. And we then looked into why consensus approach performs better because in some cases GAF and CGNFF results points in opposite direction from the experiment and hence if you take an average it performs close to that of experiment. So that's where we conclude our third test case as well. So let me provide an overall conclusion and summarize in one slide what all we looked into. First of all what I'm trying to say you or what I'm trying to convince you is that you can use molecular dynamics open source softwares like Gromax and the open source of topology and structure building software PMX developed by DeGroote lab. And calculate delta, delta G or delta G free energy change due to mutation ligand binding nucleic acid binding and various other stuff. And the results you get is as accurate as is very accurate to experiments and as accurate as possible to commercial software as possible by commercial softwares. And the evidence we saw in three different test cases in this in this webinar, especially in the protein mutation case, then absolute binding free energy and litic binding free energy cases. But there are many other test cases that are there on literature using PMX and Gromax you can find it in in in DeGroote, Professor Bird DeGroote's Google scholar, where they have shown the same working fine for protein protein binding. Then protein like a nucleic acid binding free energy calculations. And you can find tutorials of all of all of these in GitHub page of Professor Bird DeGroote you go to GitHub, then go to DeGroote lab and go to PMX you can find many tutorials. Also, there is a website hosted by Max Plank Institute PMX dot mpibpc dot mpg dot de and there itself you can find many tutorials on how to do protein mutation free energy calculation as well as relative binding free energy calculations. Nice. So with that, I am or what we are working on right now on future development of PMX is one of them is a post translational modification. What I mean by that is, we are now trying to devise a protocol where you can calculate free energy change due to methylation, acetylation or many other post translation modification to a protein. We are also working on to detect and resolve convergence problem. What I mean by that is as I have mentioned initially that if you don't have a overlap of the work distribution in some cases it might lead to poor prediction. In some scenario, how would you detect such issues and how do you resolve such issues and those are the two things we are working on now. And say if you want to contribute or if you want to suggest us that what on what other things that we can work on on how to prioritize our development of PMX, I would suggest you to go to this PMX user survey which will not take you more than two minutes just to click click click click. And it is there in bio Excel website you just go to bio Excel and look for user survey PMX. And if you have never used PMX still you have listened to this particular webinar and know what actually PMX does then still you can suggest us that how we can improve or what are the different things we can work on in future development of PMX. So I would request you to please go to bio Excel and do this user survey. With that I would like to thank the PMX developer, Vitas, Daniel, Matthew, Servas, Yuri, Professor Birdie Groot, as well as various funding agencies like bio Excel, which PMX is a part of then Max Plan Institute, Janssen and Bo Hinger for all the support. And thank you all for your kind attention, and I would be happy to take up any questions suggestions comments. Thank you. Thank you very much. There was a misunderstanding so I'm sorry. I know that Bert was answering the question but it was not what it was supposed so I will try to see because now for me it's difficult to see the order of the people, but I will try to unmute the person in charge. So then we will try to answer to the question, because the idea is not that the chat is used like I was explained the other time to answer. So, Josie, we will unmute Josie so he can answer, he can, if he's still online, we'll see. Yeah, Josie you are allowed to speak now. If you want to ask directly your question even if it was already answered because not everybody see the answer. Okay, so if you cannot speak. So, yeah the question on slide 20. In some case, show less accuracy in the Apple States, why it might be happened. Show lower accuracy, showing lower accuracy by taking explicitly the posted into account in some cases why is that why it has happened. That's the question I guess in the if you look into Galactic case. We think I mean what I think it might have happened. First of all, if you see they are well within the error bar so they are not differing much, but why this slide reduction in accuracy might have happened is because you know when you are starting from the true apostate and you be because before doing the non equilibrium simulation you do equilibrium MD and in the equilibrium MD initial setup itself there because there are various for suppose there are there is some issue with the slide issue with force fields that might might slowly accumulate on on the on the on the trajectory which might lead to say in some cases slide change in the confirmation of the apostate and what you get at the end of an equilibrium simulation may not be the exact apostate that might have happened but overall if you see the accuracy is comparable. Okay, thank you. We have another question for Volodimir. I allowed you to speak if you want. If he doesn't know it doesn't react. So the question I have a question about restrain. Legand is usually restrained in some way when computing BFES in order to avoid its free floating in the couple states. Yes, which approach do you use for restraining. Is it similar to equation and non equilibrium and non equilibrium free energy calculation. Yes, so we use the same very standard and well known way of restraining the ligand that is used in equilibrium. So in both the cases equilibrium as well as non equilibrium alchemy as of now use the same similar approach to restrain the ligand which is known as Boris style restrained developed by Boris and car plus where you restrain six different degrees of freedom freedom which is by taking three ligands three items from protein and three items from ligand and then devise one distance and two angles and three different dihedral and restrain these different six degrees of freedom. And if you restrain this six degrees of freedom there is an analytical solution that how much this restrain would contribute to the free energy value and you can subtract that particular contribution at the end. So yes, both the equilibrium and non equilibrium methods use the same Boris style restraint. Okay, thank you. Now we have a question from from an alley allowed him to talk if he wants. No, it's not reacting so slide 19 I understand why the comparison from for T, why K2 with experiment is poor, but why with the PDE to also as a large error as compared with to the others. Okay, so again, figuring out exactly what contributes to the error in free energy calculations is not a trivial task there are many things that contributes, like say you your sampling issue that how long you have run the simulations, then, then how accurate your force fields are, then, when you do non equilibrium transitions because these are absolute binding free energy, you have larger perturbation because you are decoupling a ligand having 30 to 40 atoms. So when you have such a larger perturbation you usually have poor convergence. So the work doesn't overlap properly the work of forward and reverse transitions don't don't overlap properly. So it could be because of all these various factors. So pinpointing exactly one particular reason what that contributes to PDE to I'm not sure, but it might be because of combination of all these things like poor convergence, then poor sampling in equilibrium run, and then Okay, thank you. Now we have a lot. I don't know if he will, will we want to speak. No, I think it doesn't. Oh yeah, go ahead, please. Yeah. Hi, so there's a hello. Yeah, I wanted to ask, like, Have you ever given thought about using replica exchange solute tempering along with chemical transformations in your, like, but implementing this approach in PMX. Like I have seen many papers where they use replicas change along with chemical transformations to like enhance the sampling and get a better result. Like, in case of like charge transformations in ligands, I'm having a particular problems with convergence. Like, the calculations are very difficult to converge. Yeah. So, when you say, taking replica exchange also or incorporating replica exchange also into account in the transformation itself. Then if you are talking about the non equilibrium non equilibrium transitions, then we still do not have an idea how to do is because you see the non equilibrium transitions that we do are on the order of 80 picoseconds or so. I'm having replica exchange within 80 picosecond is almost, you know, it is tough. And if you want to increase the transition time and do the replica exchange then it leads to a really large it becomes really expensive. But but what one can do is indeed do replica exchange in the equilibrium itself or generate the equilibrium trajectory using replica exchange and then do the transitions from like those replica exchange equilibrium trajectory and just to do 80 picosecond transitions and that might lead to a better improvement, which of course we have thought about but we haven't worked on that directions, or at least the basic preliminary results on some systems showed that or at least in some systems we have or at least from our lab people have shown is seen that it doesn't improve much the accuracy when you do replica exchange in equilibrium empty but we haven't done a systematic study yet, but that is still there in our mind. But if you see, as you have mentioned that there are various reports where people do all chemical transformation of the replica exchange, though those are done in equilibrium because you have various lambda windows and you run a tense of nanosecond in the various lambda windows then you can you have enough time to do do the replica exchange across various lambda values. But here our transitions are just 80 picosecond so there is no scope of incorporating replica exchange in the transition non equilibrium transition itself. And yeah, but I would suggest you maybe you can for your case, have a try have give a try on replica exchange on for generating the equilibrium ensemble itself, and see if it improves the accuracy. Or maybe you can also run the transitions longer, which of course you know that it might also leads to an improved, improved accuracy. Or if you want to work more deeply into the problem what you can do is actually find out where the convergence problem comes from, like is it when you do a large change in a large perturbation going going for charge is there some problem around the mutation side, say hydration is not proper or is there a certain conformational change that might lead to such a convergence issue, and then trying to solve the problem but these are various thoughts which might be very involved. But these are the things that you can try I guess. Thank you. Now I take the last question probably somewhere across the top. You can speak if you want. No it doesn't react. So one of his question I have a multiple question. He was to know about the fact of using multiple structure to model the Apple States of the F. Okay. Yes, and so. If you're asking the my thoughts on that. Yes, if you don't have an experimental crystal structure. Then for a comparison sake, I think you can do it to take the alpha four depostructure, but do we have a proof that that gives accurate results from using non equilibrium alchemy I don't think so. I think there are reports. I remember reading some papers which show that you can model the system using alpha fold and it also gives pretty accurate result a pretty accurate results like comparable to experiment. So I guess I guess one can give it a try in on equilibrium alchemy itself and see how it works. But indeed, there are reports showing that it does perform good. You'd say that you would like to know what is extended at what extent that we can account for difference between the two edges of F that was this question. I mean how many atoms of difference. We can have between the two leg and So, yeah, okay. So that is that is one of the advantages of non equilibrium alchemy that if you have a larger difference even 20 atoms 30 atoms 40 atoms, since you are doing the transformation in both the direction forward as well as backward direction. And you have, you have distribution of work from the forward as well as reverse direction. So the free energy is always somewhere in between this two distribution and we have shown that in RBF E case that I'm showing here in this particular slide. Here, the change in change in number of atoms is really use even it goes up to 30 and 40 atoms. But still we have results pretty close to experiment overall within five clues will promote. So in RBF E case. Also you can have a large number of atom perturbation. But you will have a problem with the convergence. So with what uncertainty you can predict the value is the uncertainty of the prediction would be really, really high. But the mean value would still be as per our experience from a BFE would be pretty close to experiment. But other issues, other issues to take into account is when you have such a larger perturbation, and you are still doing the same approach for RBF E calculation, you are assuming that both the ligands bind to the protein with the same ligand pose and same protein conformation, which may not be the case. So that might have an effect on on overall calculate accuracy of the calculation. But directly to answer your question to what extent you can have perturbation I would say up to 30 to 40 atoms but it will have a lower convergence but still pretty accurate calculated values as per our experience. Okay, thank you very much. So I close this section. I wish everybody a nice summer break. And we will come back at the end of August begins September with the presentation from AstraZeneca about application on AI. And now I say, I thank you all that the need for being here is to the channel to for the told. Thank you, I close this webinar section. Thank you everyone.

Through agriculture effectively we've established a first world country on the edge of the world. So you know the fact that we've done that is like pretty significant. We want to create this brand, we do have this very proud brand. What I see is so exciting and some of it is coming from the farming community itself is the opportunities to fix the negative side of you know the environmental effect of farming and actually turn into a huge positive. Plant-based eating has revolutionised our whole household, our whole view of ourselves. It was the first thing that actually gave me hope about rescuing the biosphere and preventing runaway greenhouse warming. We have an open government, the government is certainly supportive of innovation and it's really one of their major outcomes that they hope to achieve. It's diverse ecosystem and microclimates allow us to do a lot of R&D like in our own backyard. What I can see happening here in New Zealand is that you could become kind of a leading edge model by adopting some of the most far-seeing and progressive policies and actually putting those into motion as models. I think there's a chance for New Zealand to have thought leadership in that and then turn that expertise into products also. Through great products you can spread that sort of thinking and that experience and how to do those things and make agriculture more sustainable, more productive and help transfer that knowledge to other places. And the really cool thing is actually if you put all of New Zealand's produce together we can feed somewhere between 30 and 40 million people. The real challenge for us is what is the shape of the future going to be? Are we producing the right products? So we're looking at well what do we need to produce in 20, 30 years time? I think what's lacking are the training programs and the mentorship programs and then building these more localized economies. Well I think we have to make it sexy to farm for one thing. I think in a sense the biggest challenge is connecting those young people with land that they can farm and that they cannot feel a stake in. And there's a critical mass that's being reached now particularly in agriculture. We really do largely know what to do, you know, certainly what directions to head in. So I think that that tipping point is within sight. We've gone from urgency to emergency. We're going from climate disruption to climate panic. We can't just ignore that 14.5% of all greenhouse gases are produced by animal agriculture. Not all agriculture, just animal agriculture. But we're not lacking more enterprise and more ability to lift ourselves to take us to the next step. One of the things I've been intrigued by is the biochar movement. I've noticed that there are several biochar efforts that might, they're looking at sort of grand scale reconversion of crops. The idea of bringing nature together with technology is just a no brainer because it might be somewhere in this event, might be the gem of an idea that is going to be the big breakthrough that we need to start, stop using toxins, to stop using poisons and think of another way of approaching these pests that are doing so much damage to New Zealand's nature. So the opportunity here is huge because in fact, and what Bioneers has been demonstrating for 25 years, is that there are major practices of alternative agriculture that work very well that are non-toxic, that actually regenerate soil, sequester carbon, can produce yields equal to or in many cases much greater than industrial agriculture. And it's also one of the biggest job creators. I think New Zealand has some responsibility of a country that's really proud of the long history of agriculture and really at the leading edge of producing food products. I think we'll ensure that there are healthy food products. It's really important to get kids farming in schools. That kids having a chance to have their fingers in the soil and to learn where their food comes from and to actually experience growing food and then preparing it is kind of essential to growing healthy human beings. The work is, I think, getting people to the table. We have to collaborate. We're at a stage where advancing exponential technology is allowing people to self-organize, self-educate. As we're at a time in the world when so many people are living in cities, I think urban agriculture is really a key part of the solution as well. I was recently in Xiamen. They're one of our sister cities in China and a local supermarket group wants to have a corner of all of their stores that's got the New Zealand corner. They want to do that because there's this huge reputation for quality and safety of food coming out of New Zealand. So I think there's tremendous opportunity here actually to help lead the world as a model, as an incubator.

So if we go to the borders, then there are 15 districts of Odisha who share the borders from 4 states. And on them, the police's X-18 and GST's Arthis, total 156, total 156 check posts, will be made and functionally done soon. Why? They have been shown in the map as well. They have these first instructions that they will work in a combined way, i.e. GST, exercise, police, transport, forest, everyone will work together as a multidisciplinary team, so that you can see someone's rights or someone's rights. If this is not combined, then this is what I have seen and left for you. i.e. everyone has a way to get out of this. Now, since everybody is together, why are you not seeing? So this state, everyone has been told.

So Marcus Peters had a problem with Lamar and Jackson allegedly. Anyway, YouTube team keep it clean. What's going on is engraving here with another video. And before we get into this video, I gotta say I love y'all. I appreciate y'all, I appreciate the way that y'all support literally every single day. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel, watching the videos and everything. Make sure you subscribe if you haven't already and a lot of y'all have subscribed but make sure you subscribe if you haven't and turn notifications on because I really don't like when people miss stuff. I don't want you to miss anything. I don't want you to be behind. I want you to stay up to date on everything. So make sure you subscribe and turn notifications on. We got more collabs on the way, more stuff on the way. Especially next week, please subscribe and turn notifications on, especially if you're in the Baltimore area next week because we got something different, special and we'll see when we get there. But anyway, team keep it clean. I love y'all. I don't have a problem with y'all but apparently, Marcus Peters, he may have had a little issue with Lamar Jackson and this is according to this article written by Russell Street Reports, Tony Lombardi and I of course link it down below in the description so you can check it out for yourself. But in the article, he went over some different things and went over some of the remaining needs of the Baltimore Ravens and remaining team needs and of course, it's been a big topic of conversation. A lot of people talking about how the Ravens need a cornerback, they need more in the secondary. And I think that comes more from fear and what has happened more than what they actually need. In my opinion, the reason I say that, the reason it comes from fear is because people are scared like, hey man, what if somebody gets hurt? What if somebody goes down at the cornerback position and I also say what has happened because that has happened. It has happened like every single year to where we lose one corner for a certain amount of time and then it's like, ooh, we feel that pain and it happens like really every year. So I guess it really is a need to just stay ready so you ain't gotta get ready, be as prepared as you possibly can be before you end up being in that situation. Obviously we don't hope that anybody gets hurt but it is the NFL and stuff happens. Stuff happens and unfortunately as a Ravens fan we definitely know that stuff happens injury-wise. But hopefully with their new person in charge, hopefully the injuries, they go in a different direction than they have been. But anyway, cornerback has seemed like a pressing need for the Baltimore Ravens. A lot of people have been talking about what could Marcus Peters do? Could they bring Marcus Peters back? Will they bring him back? And let's just read exactly what the article said. Said, the Ravens roster is quite impressive but that doesn't mean there aren't some remaining holes to fill. For my money, the most glaring is at corner. Rocky Asin looked solid during recent OTAs and he's a player whose NFL career trajectory is trending in the right direction. He's a gritty player who plays with physicality and is best suited as a boundary defender. Yasin probably lacks the fluidity in his hips to be an effective slot corner. So there's sort of preface in it right there like, hey, he's an outside guy. He ain't no slot corner. He's an outside guy. He has primarily been an outside guy throughout his career. So they just letting you know like, hey, you don't need to be in the slot. You should be on the outside, but continuing. Like I said, Marcus Peters is still available. And recently he took to Instagram and commented on the post by Lamar Jackson. And of course we did cover that in a video where it seemed like Marcus Peters was missing the Baltimore Ravens. Cause he commented on Lamar Jackson's post. He said, missing my guys or miss my folks. But anyway, continuing back to the article. He said the post is interesting and that it suggests the door between the club and Marcus Peters remains open. It's also interesting that Peters took to Lamar's Instagram to comment, I've been told, here we go right here. I've been told that Peters wasn't such a big fan of Lamar towards the end of the 2022 campaign when he chose not to play through his PCL injury after several weeks off and the playoffs looming. Now that part right there, the wording is a little tricky, it's a little tricky because they put when Lamar Jackson chose not to play through his PCL injury. They didn't put when Lamar Jackson couldn't play. They didn't put when Lamar Jackson was injured, but when he chose not to play. So that the wording is tricky because this wording, to me, let me know if I'm wrong, but the wording is insinuating that it's like Lamar Jackson sat out when he could have played. That's what it's insinuating. Lamar Jackson let everybody know, like, hey, I was hurt, I couldn't play. And even if I was out there, I wouldn't be able to be the best that I could be and I would have been taken away from my team. So that would have been selfish of me. But anyway, continuing, it says when he chose not to play through his PCL injury after several weeks off and the playoffs looming. Ooh, yeah, that wording is, ooh, that wording is tricky. But anyway, it says, allegedly, the two engage in a heated exchange with most of the vitriol coming from Peters. Time heals wounds and a new contract doesn't hurt either. So Marcus Peters and Lamar Jackson allegedly, apparently, according to this, got into a heated exchange about Lamar Jackson not playing through the injury. So two football players on the same team, they argued. Who was new? To me, I don't think it's a big deal. What I think it could have been, if this is true, I would think Marcus Peters is probably just frustrated and scared, given his situation. Reason I say that is because he's on the last year of his deal with the Baltimore Ravens. I'm sure he loved his time with the Baltimore Ravens. He loved being a Baltimore Raven. He fit in. We talked about it in a previous video. There's some guys that, like, when they come to the Ravens, it seemed like they played for the Ravens forever and it seemed like they were meant to be with the Ravens forever. Like, guys like Kalaeus Campbell, guys like Anquan Bolden, and there have been more too, but Marcus Peters is somebody that, Steve Smith's seen as another one. But Marcus Peters is somebody that fits that mold. Like, oh man, he's great fit for the Baltimore Ravens, that attitude and just what he brings and brought to the table. But Marcus Peters, he was on the last year of his deal last year. And I'm sure he thought like, hey, we got a shot, man. We got a real shot. And look, I don't know what's gonna happen to me beyond this year, but I want to go out with a bang. I wanna make the most of this opportunity. I'm trying to get this thing done. So Lamar, Tyler Huntley is cool, Anthony Brown's cool, but they ain't true. We need you out there. We want you out there. We gotta have you out. Like, come on now. Come on now. Play through this thing, man. I know you can do, even if you have 50%, we need you out there. That's what I think it will be about. That's how I think, in my mind, that conversation or that argument could have went. Obviously a lot more anger in there. Probably a lot more not so team keeping clean words. Especially from Marcus Peters, because we know like even at the Ravens presser, Marcus Peters was dropping bombs. I'd never forget. Anyway, it happens. Have you ever been at work and you got this co-worker that you just cannot stand? He was, no, no, no, you ain't even got this. It ain't even that you can't even stand him. It could be that you just, sometimes you just get so annoyed with him and then y'all just got into a shouting match. Y'all had a boiling point where just things just blew up. But you still got love for them. You still gotta work with them. You still gotta show up every day and get the job done. So I mean, again, this, to me, what it seems from this article, it just seems like it was frustration with the situation. Mark Jackson hurt Ravens headed to the playoffs. Mark Jackson ain't playing Marcus Peters. Like, man, probably thinking about, hey, this might be one of my last shots. That, that's just my opinion though. I wasn't there. So I don't know, I don't know. But anyway, continuing says, but like you seen, Marcus Peters is a boundary defender and he's a player who has started his entire career. If he returns, it's unlikely that Marcus Peters will accept the role as a reserve. He just isn't wired that way. Of course, defensive coordinator Mike McDonald could bump Marlon Humphrey into the slot to accommodate, but is that really the ideal way to employ the three-time pro bowler? And yeah, I agree with that. Marlon Humphrey, he can play in the slot as we've seen, but he's an outside corner. That's where he got his money at. I mean, where he got his money from playing slot to filling in for like Tava and Young and stuff. But he's an outside guy. So you pay him the big bucks to be an outside guy. Marcus Peters and Rocky Singh, they're not slot guys. I mean, I'm sure they could do it every once in a while, but they're two outside guys. So obviously Marlon Humphrey, he's locked there as the outside corner, as the Ravens corner. And now your number two guy seems to be Rocky Singh. So something that we've talked about on here too, like yeah, I wouldn't expect Marcus Peters to want to come and just be a reserve guy, be a backup. Like that would be, whew, how humbling that would be. Like you didn't start at your entire career from the Chiefs, who I forget that he played for a lot of times, but from the Chiefs, then to the Rams, and then to the Ravens. You've been doing nothing but starting. Nothing but starting, nothing but starting. And to come back to the team to be a backup. Ooh, I just can't see that happening with no Marcus Peters, but anyway, as far as I know, I've seen a lot of people sort of taking victory laps about, oh, this is the reason why Marcus Peters ain't back with the Baltimore Ravens. If his, I don't think it's this, I think it's his play. I think it was his play, how it just seemed like he just started to fall off a bit. I don't think this stuff helped, like especially the one with hardball. Ooh, if anything, that was the one that kept him away from being on the team this off season. That's the one that kept him from being re-signed. Not an argument with Lamar Jackson, no, not that one, but the one with the hardball. Ooh, because I think it was after the Bills game, and then they tried to clean it up. I think hardball was like, oh, Marcus Peters, he was yelling at a Duffay away, or he was frustrated with a Duffay away because they're playing, no, no, no, no. He was talking to you, he was talking to you, Johnny. But again, it's football, it happens. You're not, when you go to work every day, especially if you have coworkers, everything ain't gonna be sunshine and rainbows and peaches and cream every single day. It's not gonna be that way. And there gonna be some coworkers that you just straight up don't like. You don't like, you don't click with, you don't vibe with, but I don't think this is that with Marcus Peters and Lamar Jackson. Especially again, because of the Instagram thing, if he really didn't like Lamar, if he really had a continuous issue with Lamar Jackson, he's gonna be doing coming on his Instagram for, no, and this is Marcus Peters. Like Marcus Peters is somebody, he's straight up, man. We've seen it, he is straight up. He is one of them people, like there's some people you got in life where you could just look at them and you could tell how they're feeling. They ain't gotta say nothing. They ain't gotta say nothing. Marcus Peters seemed like one of those people. So I don't take Marcus Peters as a type to waste his time commenting on somebody's Instagram or even engaging in anything with somebody who he just wasn't feeling like that. I just don't see that. So I don't think it's a continuous thing. I don't think Marcus Peters has an issue with Lamar Jackson, but I think he just may have had, if this article is true, he may have had an issue with that situation with Lamar Jackson. And to me, again, I think he may have just been frustrated and just fear of what could be with his career after this past season. I mean, him just really being like, hey, these opportunities don't come around all the time. We gotta take full advantage of this thing. And I want Lamar out there more than another quarterback, like a Tyler Huntley, like Anthony Browner, whoever and so on and so forth. So let's see what happens with Marcus Peters though. We'll see where he ends up. He had to visit with the Raiders and we ain't heard nothing since, like nothing since, but we're keeping an eye on that. Anyway, Team Keeping Clean, I love y'all. I appreciate y'all. Just like I'm sure Marcus Peters told Lamar Jackson, hey, I love you, I appreciate you too. Anyway, Team Keeping Clean, like Marcus Peters is still for now when it comes to being at Baltimore Raven, we out.

Thank you guys so much for joining us. You are the chosen ones. Exactly, it will be cool. I have really high expectations about the service this morning. Not because of the person speaking necessarily, but because how much God is gonna move since there is so much expectation within the church, within the staff, and within the volunteer team. So Natasha, could you tell us how does Hungry Jen really prepare for a guest speaker? We have our corporate prayers on, for a guest speaker? When a guest speaker comes in the Sunday, or guest services, how do we really prepare for that? We just get excited to see what God is gonna do, because we just have people joining us. Our guest speakers have been from all over the world, all over the nation, so we're just excited just to see what God is doing with their ministry. They get to join us for one of our services or something like that, and we get a chance to just see the power of God moving in different ways because each speaker will have a different anointing. They carry something a little differently, and it's just awesome to see how God moves and each individual. Yes, exactly. We also love it, leading up to it, there is, we do have our morning prayers, which won't be live streamed anymore, unfortunately. I will miss that because it was really, really powerful, but that doesn't mean you give up on our Wednesday morning, 6 a.m. morning prayer. It's beautiful, and then also, we have our Thanksgiving coming up. We have Thanksgiving, which is gonna be so exciting. We do have a Thanksgiving service, and I know that we do have a turkey ball, but in saying that, let's read out some people who are watching around the world. We have, we have Jared joining us from India. We have Preeti joining us from Finland. Priscilla, she says, love from India. That's amazing. Wow, India's far away. So yeah, we have, I think, Theha, I don't know how to pronounce your name. I hope I said it wrong, but said it correctly, not wrong, joining us from India as well. Please let us know where else you guys are watching us from. Sandra's joining us from Kentucky. Shout out to Kentucky, I have family out there. So that's awesome. So what are you guys expecting today from this service? Do you guys know Alexander Pagani or not? Like, let us know, are you guys a first time viewer? Is this like your 100th time joining us? Are you a Hungry Gen online member? Hey, want you guys to join us online? If you are not here locally, we have an online church. We want to get connected with you guys. So you guys can join us every Wednesday for our live streams. And then the first Wednesday of every month, we have Life Class that follows that service. So it's just really awesome. You guys can get plugged in by going to HungryGen.com slash Life Class. Yes, let us know in the chat what you're expecting, what you're expecting for the whole day, for the rest of the week. If you are related to Mr. Pagani, if you're family members, if you're friends with him, if you know him personally, or if you have any testimonies from when he has previously spoken, if it's on YouTube with the Demon Slayer Squad, shout out to them, or if it's just a normal service at a church, at a church center. So it's going to be an amazing service. But in saying that, in saying that, we do have one of our piano players from Hungry Generation. We're going to interview him right now. Jacob, it's such a pleasure to have you with us this morning. Jacob, how are you feeling about this Sunday? Honestly, it's a pleasure to be here, Sal. Now. Wait, what was your question? How are you feeling about this Sunday with Alexander Pagani coming? I am very, very excited to see what God's going to do, what God's, how God's going to heal, how God's going to deliver people and save people. Most importantly, that God's going to save people. That's what I'm most excited for. See people going from hell to heaven, to plunder hell and popular heaven in Jesus' name. That's what I'm most excited for. But just the move of God. Amen, amen. And last question. Since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, I'm Australian, so I don't really know much about Thanksgiving. So what are you thankful for when it comes to Thanksgiving? Most thankful for, well, first of all, God, he keeps me alive. Yeah, he keeps me alive. He just keeps me everything, you know what I'm saying? But second, other than God, which is he's everything, but the people that have around me, like you guys. Around him? No, I'm just kidding. But people around me, my friends and my family, so great before you guys. Yeah, that's awesome. Thank you, Jacob. This is Jacob, one of our key piano players at Hungry Generation Church. Thank you for joining us this morning. Thank you. We appreciate you and happy early Thanksgiving. Thank you. Sorry, it's saying that. Tell us, what are you thankful for when it comes to Thanksgiving? Yes, you guys just let us know. We'll be joining worship shortly. So just start preparing your hearts for worship. We're so excited. Our worship team is just ready to be able to take you guys deeper into the presence of God today. Prepare your hearts for the full service today. We have a lot of amazing testimonies prepared for you guys. We're so excited because it's our privilege to be able to host these services with you guys for you guys. Exactly, and also type in the chat what your favorite worship song is. Because I love hearing that. I love seeing that as well. Everyone's favorite worship song and what they really love to worship to. And then saying that, please start preparing your hearts, prepare your ears, prepare your minds. Because Church Service is about to start and enjoy. Until next time at The Morning Show. Bye, guys. Praise and a worship that is due to your name. We're not gonna stand here, Father, and just spectate, but we're gonna participate in what you have for us this morning. And all God's people said, amen. Come on and give a shout of victory, a shout of joy, a shout of praise in this house. Hallelujah. Come on, if you're watching online, just give a hand clap offering to the Lord. If you're watching right now on Zoom, give a hand clap offering to the Lord. Hallelujah, for He is worthy. Sing of His goodness. Lord, we ask you to come and do what you are famous for. To move mountains, Lord. You come through every time. We thank you that you're here in this house. Because I believe. All the word of God declares that every knee will bow, every tongue will come. As you are seated at all, you are whole enough His road. In the valley, I'm this holy moment with the Lord, touching someone right now. As we cry in your case. Holy. He's touching your situation. You, in a place of worship, have to do with surrender to the King and say, Jesus, and that you will lie in the depths of my being. Lord, that you created, I will sing to you, to work. Rocks cry. No, I won't let the rocks cry. Lord, just every hand lifted in this place. Just a few seconds, we're beginning to say, Lord, I honor you. I give you praise from the bottom of my heart. You are my Savior. You are my Lord. You are my Redeemer. You are my hiding place. Just a few seconds, we're beginning to open up your lips, beginning to thank Him from the bottom of your heart. Begin to recount all the blessings in your life. Begin to say, Father, thank you for your goodness and your mercy. I thank you for your unfailing love, Lord. I thank you that you have saved me. I thank you that you call me your own. I thank you that you are my Redeemer. That you are my God. That you are the beginning. I give you the praise and I give you the adoration. If you love Jesus this morning, come on, put your hands together for Jesus. Almighty God, who is worthy to be praised, amen. You want to welcome every single person here to hungry generation. What God abides and His people are in this place. Turn to Him every time. You're at the right place at the right time. God's going to do something in your life this morning. We want to welcome every single person watching us on Zoom. Those are on YouTube. Message to us where you're watching this from. You're a part of our family, amen. And this morning we have the opportunity to pray for nothing else but Tri-Cities. Come on, somebody. We want to be able to bring our city before God. The Bible says in Jeremiah 29.7 says, seek the peace and prosperity of the city that I put you in. It says, pray to the Lord for it because if it prospers, you will prosper, amen. How many of you guys want to prosper, amen? Tri-Cities is made up of three cities, Richland, Canamac and Pascom and they are combined through these rivers, Columbia River, Yakima River and the Snake River. God delivered the Snake River, amen. The population of Tri-Cities is about 283,000 people and in 2010 Tri-Cities was the top 10 cities in the United States to raise a family and to have real estate in it. Come on, somebody, you are blessed to be in this place. We want to begin to pray this morning for our city, for our police department, for our doctors, for our teachers, for our mayors, for our government officials, those people that, for the people who make the laws in our cities, it is not our opinions that matter about our city, it is our actions that matter, amen. We are not just there to say, oh, I don't like this or this, no, we're here to do good, to change the bad we see, amen. And that means we're going to pray. That means we're gonna participate in our city, we're gonna be involved in our community in every aspect of our city that when we get pulled over by the police department, we're like, it was God trying to encounter you, you know, bless you, amen. We're gonna honor them, we're gonna pray for them, we're gonna seek the peace and prosperity of our city, amen. God has put us into this place because a good Christian is also a good citizen, amen. And we are Christ-like believers, we're gonna reflect Christ's love. So what I want us to do right now, I want us to stretch our hands towards the screen and there's gonna be some pictures of trustees. I want us to pray for our doctors, pray for the police department, pray for our teachers, pray for the fire department, pray for our mayor, our city council, our city officials, begin to ask God, bring peace and prosperity in our city. God, bring wisdom, protect us, Father, from natural disasters, protect our city from violence, from racism, from all these things that divide us, Lord. But we know as we pray as your people, as the city prospers, we as children of God will prosper in Jesus' name. Let's begin to pray. God, I lift up the city of tri-cities. I thank you, Jesus, that this is the land of the Lord. This is where you dwell, this is where you are high and lifted up. And I declare that each person of influence within this region, Lord, I pray that you may prosper them beyond what they can do for themselves, that they may know that it is God that is working in their lives. That's that you are with the teachers, amen. Jesus, mighty name, we pray. Right now we're going to pray against violence, against racism, against murder, against division in our city of tri-cities. And this past year, violence has spiked. And we're going to begin to pray as gatekeepers of our city. We're going to begin to pray, God, bring peace. God, bring unity between every race. We have so much different races in these three cities that they're not going to see people of color. They're not going to see people of different religion, different ethnic backgrounds, but they're going to be brothers and sisters who will unite and seek the peace and prosperity of that city in Jesus' name, amen. Again, let's continue to stretch our hands. Begin to pray, God, bring peace. Father, we come against every racism. We come against every gangs, Father. We come against every crime in the name of Jesus. Begin to pray the song. God, we come before you, God. We lift up tri-cities into your hands. God, we are praying, God, as your people, God. We pray as your believers, God, as Christians, God. We come in the stand for tri-cities. God, we come, God, as a people, young kids and gangs, God, Jesus Christ, God. You said, Christians, Lord Jesus, God. The education system, Lord Jesus, God, we will drop, God. The gang rape, God, we'll drop in the name of Jesus Christ, God, racism in the name of Jesus. In Jesus' name, the last prayer we want to pray is we're going to pray for every church in tri-cities. If you have that graphic for me for the different religions in tri-cities, we're able to see that so many people are, we have Catholics, we have baptism, we have a lot of people who are actually Christian in our cities, so we thank God for that. And we want to pray that every church in tri-cities begins to prosper, amen? That it's not just only hungry Jen, it's not only just that one other church that has grown and every other church is just one or two people. We want to pray that every church will have revival, every church will have family restoration, will have strong marriages. Most of all, the people are being saved every service. The hell is being plundered and heaven is being populated for the glory of God, amen? Begin to pray right now, lift up every church, every pastor, begin to pray that God, we pray for living churches in tri-cities, Lord. We pray that every church at the body of Christ will come together and will be built up in the mighty name of Jesus. Let's pray. In the name of Jesus, Father, we lift up the body of Christ. God, we lift up every church. We lift up every pastor. God, we lift up every congregation. Father, we pray that your spirit will dwell in that church. Father, we pray that your spirit will dwell in every single congregation, in every single sanctuary. Father, we declare we'll be saved in tri-cities, God. That every church will see double Jesus salvation. That every church will see those addicted, those in depression, those in the kingdom of darkness, those in false religion, those in witchcraft, those in the kingdom of darkness, God, we will see them being saved. We would see them radically transformed. We would see them radically pursuing you, God, seeking your place, God. God, that we will see trust in the name of Jesus. Father, that this land is your land. That this church is your church. So Father, stretch your hand forth onto your church. Stretch your hand forth unto the minister. God, use this church as God. Use this city to reach the nations. Use this church as God to reach the world in the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Let's put our hands together for Jesus Christ. Come on, somebody. A good Christian is a good citizen's, amen. We will do good to change the bad we see in our city by praying, by being involved in our city and seeing God work through you and I. Amen, church. Amen, let's put our hands together for Malachi as he comes right now. I want you now to prepare your hearts for giving. Now, I know not forgiveness, but for giving. You can have a seat now. And as you're preparing your hands with a seed, I want you to keep something in mind. As at first and foremost, here we do not believe in the prosperity gospel. What we believe in is a posterity gospel. It's the posture of your heart when you give. And we see that in the word where we see in Mark chapter 12, the last two verses. And we see that Jesus calls the disciples over. And as he's gazing upon a widow woman who had just lost her husband, the love of her life, she still never forgot her first love. And she was giving out of the posture of her heart. Not because she could. It wasn't because she knew that she could get from God. It was because she knew that when she gave what she got, no man could feel, no other person could feel, no feeling, no religion could feel. I want to invite a beautiful woman up now. Mom, come on. You obviously know who she is now. I'm like, mom, for those who are watching online, prepare your hearts to give as well as you hear this encouraging testimony of giving. And to go on as an endage, where she gave, was she gave out of her poverty, of what she didn't have. So my mother here, how much did you give of the last that you had to your name last week? I gave $140. And I saved $5.75 for a dollar ride so I could come to church. Why did you give that? I grew up giving all my life, my parents for pastors and missionaries. So I was brought up in giving. And I was like, I was empty inside. I said, Lord, I need to give. I need to give because I know blessings will come. And I felt that I wasn't doing enough. And this is my concern. So in my heart, I wanted to give so bad. And I said, Lord, it's only this much. I want to give more. And I told my son, I need to give. And he goes, mom, you got to wait, mama. You only have a little bit. And I says, I know, but I need to give. So last Sunday, I told the Lord. I said, Lord, you'll take care of me. I know you will. So I gave just enough for dollar ride so I could come to church. And you got it. Yeah, so what had happened previously now, the two years before today, my father got very sick. And long story short, he started the process so that my mother would not go financially unstable as my father had worked diligently to provide for us. We were never rich. But my dad, as he'd say, he was rich because of what he had. And that's where my father gave out of as well, out of the abundance of what he had. And with that, as of last, actually, day before yesterday, yeah, it's OK. We had been, I'm here to be a witness. And my mother sent me a letter from the United States Social Security Administration, where my father, before he passed, had been for two years fighting the system to just get what was his for his wife. Denied, denied, denied, denied three times. And with that, as my mother had given because she knew that God was faithful, that God was faithful, she received a letter two days ago saying that not only will she receive full back pay of what my father would have gotten for her and her name with some on the top, as well as she will be receiving on top of that a monthly check for the rest of her entire life. God is good. God is good. Come on, someone praise the Lord. God, you are good. So, Mom, I want you to just very quickly, there's someone here, and this is not to make you give. This is so you know. This is what happens when you trust God, when you trust Him. Keep your eyes on that. Don't be dismayed. But Mom, tell someone or people or those who are watching on live stream or from all around the world, tell them why they should give to the Lord. The Bible says that if you have faith as a mustard seed, that God would bless you. I have everything here, but I'm so nervous. But the action of giving, the action of saying to that mountain, be removed. I was in the back with Pastor Eliad's wife and I told her, please pray for me. And she said, yes, let's pray. And I told her, I was standing in the back, but I was pointing this way and I says, I want to stand up there. I want to witness. I want to testify. I want to tell everybody that God can't move my mountain. Come on, and God can move your mountain as well. As you give unto the Lord. Yes! Come on, and give a shout. You are a worthy God. You are worthy Lord. So as you prepare your heart right now in this posture, not out of your prosperity, not out of your success, but out of the knowledge knowing that God is good and out of your faith, that may be only as big as a mustard seed, which you can't see in your hand, but put something in your hand, even if it's nothing and say, Lord, I come even with nothing, but I give you everything. Amen. So let's take that seed right now and there's a few ways to give. If you look behind me up on top, there is the Church Center app, which is one of my favorites. We give automatically through that every single month. There is the Cash App, Venmo, and others. There is also any amount to eight, four, three, two, one, and select Hungry Jen. Let's close our eyes. Father, we just thank you so much for your goodness. We thank you that you are a faithful God. We thank you that you see past what we're even giving. You see past what we're giving for, Lord, Father, God. And so we don't look to the left or the right, but we look to the hills where our help comes from. And as we give to you, we know that our help comes from the Lord, the Creator of heaven and of earth. You know every single seed in this house that has been planted, Lord, Father, God. And we ask that Holy Spirit that you would come and you would comfort those hearts that are giving right now, Lord, Father, God. We ask that the waters from heaven would come and pour out over the grounds that have been seeded in Jesus' mighty name. And we thank you and all God's people said, amen. And in this time, you can please come up. There are buckets here so that you can give while the rest of us lay our eyes up on the screen and there will be announcements.

And I'm just gonna continue writing the wave of sharing testimonies with you and we share testimonies with you to encourage your faith. Then maybe you find yourself in a situation that you think God is not working your life but for you to be reminded that God is good, that he is on your side. And also with testimonies, we wanna expose the enemy and with the enemy lying to you about, we don't wanna normalize satanic activities in your life. We wanna expose the darkness and bring the light into your life, amen. And so we love internet because through internet, we can travel the world without getting a plane ticket, without getting a plane ticket. And so we have Thursday lives with Pastor Vlad and we also have Wednesday live services here at Hungry Gen with Pastor Ilya. And I just wanna share a testimony that came in from Elizabeth Flores. She watched a Thursday stream on September 23rd and she was fasting that day for God to deliver her. She was super hungry and desperate for God. And she said, I surrendered everything crying for Holy Spirit to fight for me. During the prayer, I felt the devil was fighting what the Holy Spirit was more powerful. I started shaking, coughing, screaming and doing weird movements. After that pastor mentioned that God has delivered people from incubus and succubus, big words for me. Spirit, I know that was God confirmation. I felt light and the anointing of the Holy Spirit was there feeling now as I'm writing. I'm from Philippines and God moves everywhere. Praise God. Amen, let's put our hands together for Jesus. And it is incredible how God can use this ministry. Somebody don't have to go anywhere. They can sit in the comfort of their home, their couch, shaking, baking at the living room and God in delivering them and touching their life. And we are so thankful and grateful for God for all of these miracles that he's doing. Also we have monthly deliverance, virtual services with Pastor Rickard all the way from Sweden that he organizes them. And we have another testimony where people just all of our demon slayers get together and they pray over Zoom and people sign up for the prayer line. Those that can't come to America, those that are all in different countries and let's roll the clip of this Jasmine as she being delivered. It's fire right now. You don't have the power. Fire in the name of Jesus. From the top of her head to the sorcery feet, all it goes, fire, fire, fire in the name of Jesus. Right now, fire, consumer, from the top of her head to the sorcery feet, all it goes, fire right now. All it goes, fire, fire. Bound her. Are you bound her? Who are you? You have a name you demon. You're a spirit of what? We are many. Okay, you are many. Who is number one? Who is number one? Last. Last number two. Number three. Number three. Who else speak out on the floor? You're back on the floor. Out, out, out, out. In Jesus. Thank you Lord. Thank you Jesus for your freedom right now. In Jesus mighty name. Amen. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Jasmine rise up. Jesus Christ have set you free. Rise up right now. You are set free in the name of Jesus. Can you lift your hand and say thank you Jesus for my freedom. Thank you Jesus. Say it louder. Say thank you Jesus for my freedom. Thank you Jesus for my freedom. Thank you Jesus. This is what she could not say before guys. Thank you Jesus for my freedom. Thank you Jesus. Amen. Jasmine, I hope you had a soft carpet. I do apologize for the bruises. It was just a wood floor. Jasmine is joining us all the way from Germany, nine hours ahead of us. And it is so incredible that she was able to sign up because there was probably no chance that she would come here to prayer line. And she recognized that she needed deliverance her life. And her deliverance began to raise to deliver. But this time was a final punch in devil's face. And Jasmine, welcome to Hungry Jen. Can you tell us. Thank you. Can you tell us what was happening in that video that you just watched? Okay, so I was, well, the demon in me was physically manifesting. So I guess you could say I was manifesting. And it was intense. That was just a short clip of what happened over a couple of hours. And basically I really felt like I was imprisoned because I wanted to pray and I couldn't. I wanted to get this out of me, save me and I couldn't. So it was just basically the grace of the Holy Spirit, the anointing of the Holy Spirit that kicked it out. Amen. Let's put our hands together for Jesus. We thank Him for delivering you over Zoom. And so what your life has been like, I know it's been just a few short weeks, but what your life has been like since then? What are the changes that you have seen in your life? It's actually been a couple of weeks. It's been maybe 15, 16 days now. And in that time, I feel like I've started to praise God differently because it's not just like, I'm not sure, but starting to feel the glory of God, His majesty, His power and being set free from something that was so insidious, from something that was claiming to be God, saying, I am God and you worship me and this and that. You know, it's a long story and I know for the sake of time it has to be compressed, but it started during race to deliver. And now when I pray, when I walk in the middle like Pastor Vlad says, hi Pastor Vlad. And he says, walk in the middle. And when I pray and I come against the attacks, I just keep saying, thank you Jesus. Thank you for saving me. So my praise is more genuine and it just feels the peace of God is amazing when I say it. What is your advice to people that you have that maybe are watching Hungry Jenna? You think they're thinking that it's not real over Zoom. It's not, you know, no one's praying for you in a room. Can you give them an encouragement advice to? I would say there really is no barrier because when I watched race to deliver, it was also digital. And I manifested throughout every prayer session. So I would just pray to God, cry out to him in the middle of what you're feeling, the oppression, the affliction. Cry out to him, say, God, this is your nature in Psalms. Pray through the Psalms. This is your nature. This is your covenant. These are your blessings. You are a refuge for the oppressed. When you cry out to him like that and say, Lord, I believe in you. I trust you. It starts to change how you feel about what's going on because your situation does not change your eternal God. He is powerful. He can lose you from any demon. He can break any chain. He can do anything. So cry out to him and trust in him, seek him for himself. And he will deliver you just like he delivered me. I'm so very grateful. Thank God. Amen. And we want to thank you for joining us and staying up late, if you had to stay up late to share your testimony. We thank God for your life. Amen. Thank you. Amen. Let's put our hands together. One more time for Jesus. I want to encourage you that maybe you're a first time here today or you're watching us online, that you connect your faith that there's no distance for God. He can touch you wherever you're at. And it's not that he can touch you. It's no matter what problem you have, a situation you is, he has a solution. God is on your side. Amen. And so help me to welcome the most exciting testimony that you're going to hear this month probably. Fidel to the front as he comes. I am privileged and excited that I get to share your testimony. And are we going to punch the devil? Tell us where. Let's stand in the middle here. Tell us where you're from and just begin to share your life story. I'm from here from Pasco, from Washington. And I grew up here and stuff. And as I was growing up, I kind of grew up in a broken home. So my mom was always chasing my dad because my dad was always leaving the house. In the mix of that, I kind of had no eyes on me. So I was able to come home whenever I wanted to. So I started going out and started getting kind of into drugs and stuff like that. So at the age of 15, I became a part of this gang here. And at that same time, I also got arrested for the first time. I went to a juvie for a possession of a firearm charge. And then from there on, for the next couple of years, it was nonstop incarceration. I just kept going to jail every year I was in jail. It was a cycle that I was kind of beginning to get stuck to. At the age of 17, I have a kid with this girl. And I end up having another kid with this girl. But I don't know how to have a good relationship because I never had that example ship. So I messed that up. And at the age of 20, I go to prison. I get a charge for felon in possession of a firearm and felony writing with a weapon. And when I get out, when I'm in there, I have all this great master plan of how when I get out, everything's going to work out good for me and stuff like that. But when I get out, I get faced with all these problems and stuff and I get a job and I get my license released. And as soon as I get my license released, everybody knows where I'm at. Everybody starts garnishing me and life's not going as I planned it. And life starts getting harder. And I started thinking of giving up. And so this girl that I know and stuff from back then, she kind of comes into my life again. And she comes and she's talking to me. She's sending me these invites to go to church. And I didn't really want nothing from church. I just got out of prison and we don't do church in prison. And so as I continue and stuff like that, like I'm kind of in a situation where everything just starts getting worse and worse and worse. I get in an altercation with my baby's mom's new baby's dad and stuff like that. So I get a restraining order. And then so I follow the parenting plan and I kind of get back into drugs because that's my escape. I'm already thinking of giving up and going on the run. I'm on probation. I don't really care anymore. And as I go through this, this girl just keeps on bugging me. She's just nonstop bugging me. And so I get to this point where I get my ankle monitor cut off my leg. I'm free to go out. With some friends, we have a meeting. There's been some stuff that's been going on and a friend of ours got shot. So in the midst of all this, we have friends on both sides that we each lose and stuff like that. And so I'm driving down Court Street. And there's a rival gang that's next to us. And I have my kids in the back. I got a chance to have my kids with me. And I didn't tell my mom nothing like that because they would be mad. And so they actually pointed guns at us. And I ended up telling my friend to take me home. We got taken home and stuff. And then I remembered that when I got out that I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't be the person that my dad was for me. And I would be there for my kids so I didn't want them to not be there without their father. And if they would have shot that car, I would have lost my kids. I would have been dangerous to my kids and I didn't want that for them. So I didn't know what to do. I was desperate. I didn't know how to leave. I didn't know how to stop doing what I was doing. And God just kind of just sent this girl again. And she invites me to church. And I'm like, all right, I'll go to church. So I go to church and I kind of do this prayer. I do kind of don't really believe in God because the whole time my mom when I was growing up, she was always praying to God to kind of restore her marriage. And God never did it. So I was raised Catholic. So I don't know if there has anything to do with it. But yeah, so that happened. And so I go to church. And while I'm at church, she starts talking to the message and stuff. The message kind of hits me and stuff. So I go up to the altar and I tell God, God, if you're real, you got to show me that you're real because I don't believe in you. But I promise I was like, if you show me that you're real, that I will serve you and I will do everything that you want. And so I meet this guy there and his name's Tony. And he kind of becomes the guy that I kind of connect with throughout the week. And I was so desperate that I gave it just one week in prayer and everything and God didn't move and stuff. So I kind of go back and try to give him his Bible. And I'm like, hey, Tony, this isn't working for me and stuff like that. So before I could say anything, he just recommends it fast. He goes, you should try to fasting and stuff like that. So I go on this three day fast. Against or fasting? Yeah, I was desperate. So I start fasting. I do this fast. I kind of keep away from everybody. I don't want nobody bothering me. I lock myself in my room and I take it serious. And three days pass by and nothing happens. I'm already still thinking of giving up, you know? And I have like one week or everything kind of falls in the order and stuff like that. And I have court for my restraining order because they got an altercation with my kids with their stepdad. And then also I have my parenting plan. I had just gone through mediation. I was going to come and finalize my parenting plan. And I had messed up and I had to go see my probation officer, which I hadn't remembered yet. And so I end up going and like, I don't know where I thought I was on this lucky streak and I end up just winning. I get my case dismissed for my restraining order. And then I don't know where I get my favor and I get half custody, which wasn't supposed to happen. I'm supposed to work weight and kind of work my way through it, get half custody. And I pass the UA that I'm not supposed to pass. And from that UA, I'm taking off and I'm kind of, my sister's taking me home. And in the car, she was a Christian. She tried to give me to church too, but I didn't go there. And so she's listening to this radio station called Caleb. And there's this guy on the radio named Luis Pallon. And he's talking about, he goes, did you know that in the Hebrew language that there is no word for coincidence? Everything that happens is because God's ordained it that way. And the sooner that we start saying that it's not a coincidence, but start acknowledging that it's him, that the more we'll see the blessings poured out upon us. And let's put our hands together for Jesus, yes. God can't even speak to you in the car through a radio, yes. So I'm in the car and to my sister doesn't seem like anything. But to me, I felt like God was telling me, he goes, nope, it's not a coincidence, it's me. So I look out the window and we're driving down the highway and I start kind of like, God's reminded me of all the stuff that happened throughout the week and I'm broken. And I know that God's been telling me, like, no, that's me, it's not your coincidence, it's me. And so I get home and stuff and I lock myself in the bathroom where nobody can see me because I'm still embarrassed to pray and stuff like that. So I get on my knees and I pray and I tell God, like, all right, God, I see you and what do I do next? I don't know what to do next and stuff. And God's perfect timing and Diana calls me again. It's this night service that they're doing on Fridays. And so now I'm excited and I'm like, all right, yeah, pick me up, I want to go and you go to the service and man, the service just wrecks me and I'm just all over, God's all over me and they do an altar call and God's tugging me to go and to go to the altar. So I go to the altar and I do the sinner's prayer, I give my life to Christ and yeah, just remember, opening my eyes and I was crying and I didn't want nobody to see me crying so I walk out of there. And so Tony becomes my mentor, he kind of just kind of guides me and teaches me but something changed inside of me like I got this fire for God and now I knew God was real and I knew he was looking at me. So I was always like on making sure that everything that I did was what he wanted me to do. So I started cutting stuff out. My pride was one of the hardest things to cut out because I didn't want none of my friends to see me but they were doing an evangelism thing. And I was like, you know what God, I want to be sold out. I don't want to just do this thing halfway. So I end up going and doing this stuff and I'm on fire for God and God's just pruning me and I'm just broken at the altar constantly. And I get to this point three years like on fire and I get with this girl and kind of posing me out again. I kind of wanted God to bless something that was in my will, not his will. And so he posed me the devil posed me back out and I ended up going to jail and I ended up going back to jail for a crime and God gets me alone and just me and him in the jail. So and I have a Bible and I just remember that I was looking at it, I got convicted and I started repenting, started asking God to forgive me and I rededicated my life in a jail cell. And so when I get out from there, I cut off everything. I don't want, I don't want nothing. So I was tattooing back then too. I cut out tattooing and it was a hard thing for me to do because I was making really good money. So I cut that out. I cut out unhealthy relationships, everything. And I kept pushing forward. I was like, it's not what I want. It's what he wants. And that's what I'm going to decide to do. I'm doing this all the way. He doesn't want half my heart. He wants my whole heart. So. Hallelujah. Today he has people that he brings every service, money service, second service, Spanish service. Can you begin to just tell us just a little bit more what God is doing through your life? We know that it's not you. It's him just from your obedience to his, to surrender to him. What is he doing in your life now? Okay, so now that I've kind of been like rededicated my life and everything and now my kids are have a good relationship with my kid's mom and I'm able to bring my kids to church and my kids come to church. My kid actually gave his life to Christ here on the station as well as my nephew. My nephew came a couple of services ago and he gave his life to Christ. He's bringing his mom today and his family. So they're coming. I have friends from the gang that I was from that are coming to church now as well. And yeah, God's just using me and I'm just trying to be that willing vessel to bring people. Amen from drug dealer to gospel dealer. Amen. So we're so excited. And what is your advice that you have for people that are maybe constantly backsliding or are into drugs and gains? What do you wanna tell them today? Just one thing that I kind of noticed in my life was God wanted me to surrender some stuff and I was still trying to hold onto him. Most of the time I think what keeps us going back is that we don't fully surrender. We kind of want God to bless what we want and it doesn't work that way. God wants us to give that up. With obedience comes surrender and you have to surrender. So every time I've ever come to the altar I was coming to surrender something and to turn away from it and to not go back to it because that one little foothold that I gave the enemy it just pulled me right back and this time I'm watching everything and I'm taking advice from everybody. So I'm surrounded by leadership and I have a good leadership here as well. And I'm just gonna push forward and make sure you guys surround yourself with some good people, Christian people that are doing good. No delay less in your life, boys. Thank you so much. We appreciate your sharing. Let's put our hands together for Jesus. Honestly, I don't have to say anything more. We cut his testimony from one hour and a half to nine minutes, so it's great. I don't have to say anything else. Let's help me welcome Pastor Vlad to the stage. Good job, thank you Fidel. Thank you Fidel for your testimony. You're such a testimony in the 738 o'clock he's already here all the way to the last service. He has one group that he brings in the first service, second group he brings in the second one. And then he's like, I'm bringing my Spanish people on the third one. I'm like, come on, bro. You're gonna get all this Jesus to yourself. And he's part of the amazing, amazing group. But guys today is gonna be an awesome, awesome thing that the Lord has in store for each and every one of us. I wanna welcome those of you who are coming for the first time to hungry Jen, whether you're coming to listen to our guest or you're coming because somebody invited you, you are in for a treat. I think you're already getting blessed by the testimonies that you're receiving. We do take a large portion of our service to pray for our city and also to hear the testimonies. We don't wanna just talk about it. We wanna hear it, that this works. And all the way from the offering testimony, thank you so much for sharing your story, giving your last Sunday and then look what God did. This is not a formula that if you do that, but if you're obedient, and like what Malika said, if you're obedient, God's gonna meet you at the point of your need, amen, amen. We wanna remind you that today, after the service on your way out, our guest speaker, demon slayer, my good friend, Apostle Alexander Progani, he has a book called Secrets to Deliverance. I would highly encourage you. There's only 50, so you wanna get it right away and get few for your friends or for your family. I've read this book myself and it was a great blessing to me and I know it's gonna be a great blessing for you. As well as there is hoodies and my books that are there in the lobby, all the proceeds, we decided with my wife for the remaining this year and next year to give all of that to the building fund. So whatever that you will purchase will go to the building fund, but Alexander's will go, he has two dogs and he has two sons and so they're very, very important and we need to, I only have one dog and I don't have sons and stuff, so, but so that will go to sponsor very important need. I heard one speaker one time, he said, he said all of the proceeds and you know, you're thinking like it's gonna go to missions. He's like, all of the proceeds will go to feed two cats and two dogs in my house. I was like, I love that. I first have seen Alexander on Isaiah Saldivar's podcast and after that I watched few of his testimonies and then it dawned on me that few years ago we actually played his testimony at our church from 700 Club and I was like, it's the same person and so his beard as the anointing grows each year so is the beard and so I didn't recognize the beard because there was, the beard was a lot more, like mine, very, you know, limited and then when I've seen him on Isaiah Saldivar's podcast I'm like, wait, it's the same person, he has a tremendous testimony of how God did amazing things in his life and then how God brought him into the ministry of deliverance, he didn't grow up believing in the ministry of deliverance and today he's one of the generals of the ministry of deliverance. Amen. How many of you guys, how many of you you already have watched or you've heard about Alexander Progany? Okay, so half of you, okay, that's good, that's good and it's his first time in Pacific Northwest. So church, I know that people see Washington as like a graveyard, so we need to prove him wrong, amen, so that this is an unfire for God area, amen. Without further ado, would you help me to welcome Apostle, Apostle and his wife to hungry generation. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. You may be seated, as Pastor Vlad mentioned, this is my first time in the Northwest region, been all over the country, all over the world, haven't had a chance to actually make my way in this region simply because I don't go to every invitation, I go where the Lord sends me and it has to be with the right person. So that way history is made, a ripple effect is created and therefore lasting fruit remains, so who better than to invite this bronx demon slayer than Pastor Vlad and his lovely wife. Give them a great round of applause. Oh man, I'm here with my lovely wife, Mama Pagani, just raise your hand so that way they can see who you are. Amen, praise the Lord. Small world, I didn't know that testimony, Pastor, I didn't know that our conversion experience ended up being played here at your church, so no coincidence, I got saved in prison, serving a nine-year prison sentence, Jesus Christ came in my cell, I mean he told me to follow him and I was instantly born again, everything radically changed for me. I didn't go home immediately after that, so it wasn't a jailhouse, a religious experience, it was an authentic one and I began to live for the Lord behind bars, I got called to the pastorate in prison, I got called to the Ministry of Deliverance but when I came out of prison I joined the denomination and they got that out of me but that's a whole another story there. And I went many years preaching against deliverance, my mind, my theological framework could not embrace that a, how can a spirit-filled Christian have a demon like living on the inside? And I had all of these idioms and these proverbial statements that denominationalism says, like how can the Holy Spirit live in the same house as the demon, you know? Well, then I began to, you know, living in New York, that made total sense to me because you could live in a house with roaches. How can I, how many of you know you clean your house and then there's still something critter somewhere, you know, so my theology was wrestling with my cultural upbringing of where I was at and we had one of the fastest growing churches in the Bronx at that time, at least for my denomination. Now this was 18 years ago, I was 24 years old, I was the youngest pastor in our denomination. We were traveling as an evangelist. My prison testimony became the catalyst of promoting this new Gen X. I'm not a millennial, I'm not a Gen Z, I'm a Generation X guy, all right? I'm almost 50, you know? So at that time, there was no internet. When I started preaching the gospel, when I got married, we didn't have cell phones, we didn't have internet. There was nothing, it was, you know, I used to reach out to her on a beeper or a pager. I had pager, we had a code. The code was my building number, you know? So, you know, things have changed from then until now. So we had this fastest growing church in the Bronx was the mascot and the poster boy of the new generation with all denomination. But I was going home and I was punching walls. I was terrorizing my wife and I was a pastor and I was addicted to pornography. And I would come up and I'd preach and I'd prophesy and I'd pray in tongues and the church couldn't tell the difference because I was in one of those denominations where behavior modification was more important than heart transformation. So everything was external adherence, you know? And I was frustrated and I ended up as a pastor going to see a psychologist, just trying to get some answers. And I ended up helping my psychologist kind of get delivered. She was like, young man, I like listening to you. You know, like, well, you know, she just sit there smoke cigarettes and hear me out, you know? And get set free, you know? You know, it wasn't until I got to a place of, I went beyond desperation to a place of groaning. You know, hunger will bring, you know, hunger will bring a visitation but groaning will produce a habitation. You know, the children of Israel hunger to get delivered for 400 years but God never showed up. It was just hunger. It wasn't until they started groaning. This is why fasting is so important because it causes your flesh to groan. This is why the young man went from, you know, desiring freedom to actually God beginning the process of full breakthrough because your flesh now is, it's not just hungry. You're three days, I mean, you know, three days your flesh is groaning at that time, you know, you know, a smell make you want to break the fast and go eat, you know? I got to a place of groaning because I was bound, I was so bound as a pastor of a successful church that one day coming out of the church, me and my wife got into an argument simply because I just told the church to pray for me and this is how enslaved we were to make sure nobody knows what we're dealing with. How many of you know that, you know, in my culture, you know, Latino culture, you know, we take secrets to the grave, you know, we just never tell you, you know? So I was kind of living and embodying that and in the middle of the argument, I jumped out the car, like while the car was moving, I jumped out the car ready to just wanted to hit her, you know, right in front of the street and everybody, you know, like, and that was the moment when I realized that something was inherently wrong, you know, as a pastor and never hit her. Thank God, never went to that level. But how many of you know emotional abuse is just as worse as physical abuse? You know, if I could hurt her with my words and my children with my words, you know, I think sometimes that's probably even more damaging because you could heal from a physical wound but sometimes it takes, you can't heal from a word wound, you know, and in that moment, I asked the Lord, I said, okay, Lord, what the heck is going on, you know, and he began to tell me to revisit this idea of deliverance. And right there, I said, no, Christian can't have a demon. And I'm telling God, demonize, oh, Christian can't have a demon, God, you know, so I'm demonized saying I'm not, that there's no such thing as being demonized. You know, one day, you know, one day in the middle of a staff meeting, how many of you know, staff meetings could get intense sometimes. If you're not past it and you don't, then when you become a pastor, you'll know that when it's time to touch the funds and rearrange some stuff, you know, it could get a little intense in the meeting, you know, so in the middle of a pastoral staff meeting with my staff, many of them are still with me to this day. For some reason, I had gotten a no on something like, you know what, Pastor, no, I don't think we should do that right now. And I lost it, I got enraged in the middle of a meeting. I literally lost it in the middle of this meeting to the point that I manifested. I was manifesting in a meeting. And the next thing I know in front of my pastors, I'm on the floor still looking like a snake, in front of my pastors. Now, two things are happening to me. I'm talking to myself saying, Alex, you are embarrassing yourself. Like, they're definitely gonna leave the church after this, you know, and then there's this other pervading thought that I wanted to take the church chairs and bash everyone's head in at the same time. But I couldn't move because while I was slithering on the floor like a snake, I wasn't moving and slithering, I was in place while slithering because there was a foot this big on my back. And when I turned like this, there was nothing, there was nobody there. And I heard a voice on my right ear said, I've been sent from heaven to make it manifest. Allow it to manifest because today it's leaving. It's a true story. And I yelled out this loud shriek. Ah, I shrieked so loud that the capillaries in my face broke open and my whole face was bloodshot red with freckles from broken vessels. And I let out this loud shriek and then it just left. And I heard the voice say again to me, it's gone, don't look for it. And when I got up, I felt this part of my chest was completely peaceful and I realized that that's where the demon had been lodging. I had a generational curse of destruction. That was the demon that was operating in my life which means nothing in my life ever lasted. I always messed up whatever good was given to me. Relationships squandered, money squandered, ministry opportunities closed, holidays ruined. I ruined all of our holidays up until that point. Christmas, I woke up in a bad mood. How many of you woke up in a bad mood on Christmas morning? I don't wanna talk to nobody. We all having Christmas dinner. I'm in the room somewhere, I'm not coming out. Holding my family hostage. Burt days, you can forget about it. I was a terror. Every year, I was always ruining and I had a generational curse of destruction and generational curse of ruin. And at that moment it left, it left. How many of you know that when you get delivered, your theology changes? I don't know who I'm talking to today, man. My theology changed and the power of God hit me so hard in that staff meeting that it spilled over. Now here's what's interesting that while I was manifesting on the floor, I vaguely heard one of my leaders say in the background, finally our pastor's getting delivered. To this day, I don't know who said that. But finally it was, somebody said, finally. And I heard somebody say, we've been waiting for this day. You know? And the power of God hit me at that moment and it spilled over to everyone in that room. One by one, whoever got close to me at that moment trying to give me a hug like, whoa pastor, what was that? The power of God hit them and by the time I turned around, all of my staff was on the floor manifesting, getting delivered. In the basement of the church, we had two of the young people, they were a bit older at the time, two young adults, they were practicing for the Easter play. So in Holy Week, Passion Week at that time, they were down to this past. So they heard the commotion, they ran upstairs. And as soon as they came, maybe about maybe 10 feet from me, they got thrown back by the power of God. The other one that was with them trying to run around and come around, trying to run around and come this way to leave. And I was laying there on the floor and when he walked by, I tapped him on his ankle and he got thrown by the power of God. And the young man ends up taking out bags of dope out of his pocket and he threw it on the floor and said, pastor, I had been planning to backslide after Easter. And he got fully delivered. And everyone at that meeting is still serving the Lord today. Most of them are still with me and others have transitioned on to other congregations. And that's what I wanna talk to you today about. And hopefully we can get to that place. The title of my message is you're not digging deep enough. I know that we are in a deliverance house and praise God that I don't have to convince you guys of deliverance because as I travel the country, I spend an enormous amount of time just trying to get the church to a place of agreeing that a Christian could potentially be demonized. I am so grateful that I don't have to do that here. That I don't have to convince anything other than those of you that are here new for the first time. I want you to turn with me very quickly to the book of Ezekiel chapter eight. I wanna talk to you about you're digging but you're not digging deep enough. Some of you, your deliverance can only be acquired when there is a perpetual, intended, militant, aggressive effort in continuing to dig until you find the nucleus of what's actually is going wrong in your life. Now most of us, we get deliverance once or twice and we kind of stop there. Or we kind of just linger in this ecosystem of deliverance where I'm in a house of deliverance and I'm good and you come up to the altar and amen deliverance, it's actually a labyrinth. It's not a maze. A maze can just be figured out by just retracing your steps and you follow this particular pattern of go forward 10 steps, turn right. And when you turn right, go left and then go back one and then go this way. And if you keep repeating it, then you kind of figure your way out and that's where most kind of churches, we get into this ritualistic, you know, this patterned version of deliverance where we dwell in this ecosystem of deliverance and we just kind of, yeah, I know that. You know what I'm saying? Like yeah, it's kind of, but then there's this underlying issues that go deep that can only be figured out not through repetition, but through the supernatural gift of the word of wisdom where you can figure out how do you really get delivered? Because true deep deliverance is figuring out a labyrinth and in case you don't know what a labyrinth is, in order to get out of a labyrinth, it has nothing to do with following the same protocol. It has to do with problem solving because sometimes a door in a labyrinth actually that says exit is a lie and actually takes you back to the beginning. That's what a labyrinth is. It's like Alice in Wonderland where you think what you're drinking, it looks like poison, but God is saying drink that so that way Alice can shrink enough size and humble yourself to get into a little door that's actually narrow. For the kingdom is actually a narrow door. Did you catch that revelation? So this is how deliverance, that's where I was. I was trapped in trying to figure it out, trying to protocol my way through deliverance other than finding that it's actually requiring me to go deeper. Ezekiel chapter eight, now what I'm gonna do today is I'm not gonna give you a sermon, the three points. I'm gonna give you a thought. I'm gonna do what is called an exhaustive teaching which means I'm gonna take one thought and I'm gonna drive that point in repeating it. Leading up to, we'll call you up and we'll help you get delivered. How many of you wanna get delivered this morning? Oh, go through some deeper deliverance, amen. All right, so I'm gonna kind of take you there apostolically, I'm gonna take this one thought and I'm gonna keep driving in. So it's not gonna be where is this heading and what is the conclusion? It's gonna be a battering ram of the same thing. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, why? Because each time we bang in, we're digging deeper. We're digging deeper. Because the title is you're not digging, you're not digging deep enough. As a matter of fact, hold your finger there. Actually, the opening context is in Deuteronomy 23 verses nine through 14 and then it's Ezekiel chapter eight. Now remember, you're not digging deep enough. Catch the metaphor there. Deuteronomy 23 verse nine through 14. Now look at what this says and keep the metaphor in your mind or the type and the shadow or the symbolism to help you understand a spiritual truth. When you are encamped against your enemies, keep away from everything impure. Verse 10 now, if one of your men is unclean because of a nocturnal emission, he is to go outside the camp and stay there. But as evening approaches, he is to wash himself. And at sunset, he may return to the camp. Now look at verse 12. Here's where things get very interesting. You must designate a place outside the camp where you can go relieve yourself. Now look at this. As part of your equipment, you must have something to dig with. Now the King James version will tell you a small shovel. All right, now look what it says. Where you can go relieve yourself. Now, I believe we all know what relieve yourself here is actually meaning. Look at verse 13. As part of your equipment, you must have a small shovel to dig with. Now stop right there. Let me just interject something. For too long, we've only been carrying swords. And God is saying, with your sword carry a shovel. Did you catch that revelation? For too long, we're either, because we're evangelical, we're either carrying a sword or we're told to build. So either carrying a sword on one hand like Nehemiah and a hammer on the other. There's actually a third equipment that you and I also also have. And it's actually a shovel. Why? Because in the process of our fighting against your enemies and also in the process of our building, there are moments that you need deliverance. That you need to relieve yourself. And in the middle of your war, you can't just say, hold on enemy and then stop and then take care of business. You can't do that. Because if not, guess what happens when you do that. And here's what happens with many of us in the deliverance ministry or in this deliverance ecosystem. We're fighting enemies. We're also building while we're fighting. But at the same time, we're defecating all over the camp. And watch this, look at this. As part of your equipment, have something to dig with. When you relieve yourself, dig a hole and cover up your excretement. For the Lord your God moves about in your camp to protect you and deliver you from your enemies. So your camp must be holy so that he will not see your excrement while he's defending you. So do you see it? So for too long, God is in our midst. How many of you know God is in our midst? But how many of you know he's protecting us in our midst? How many of you know that he is also fighting against the enemies? But as he is walking, watch this, against the enemies, he is also noticing at the same time that there is feces all over the camp. So this is the reason why it's saying that as we go to war, not only are we slaying enemies, not only must we be holy, but at the same time as we're fighting, we should be digging holes. And as we dig a hole, what do we do? In the moment when we're fighting and we feel that we need deliverance, we are to relieve ourselves in the hole and cover it up and keep fighting. This is the reason why the tunnel of my message is you're not digging deep enough. You have to dig deeper to be able to put all the excrement inside the hole and cover it up and continue in your warfare. Now, the reason why I'm bringing this up is because this house has a deliverance ecosystem. So I'm not teaching something that you haven't already been doing. What God sent me here to do is to tell some of you that you're actually fighting, you're actually warring a good warfare, but at the same time, where are you putting and where are you relieving yourself? Now look at this. Ezekiel chapter eight now, turn with me. Is this good or is this? Is he going over it? Just kidding. All right. Then he brought me to the door of the temple. I feel the Holy Spirit right now. Then he brought me to the door of the temple courtyard where he could see a what in the wall. He can see a hole in the wall. Now look what it says. He said to me, now, son of man, dig into the wall. So I dug into the wall and found a what? I found a hidden doorway, bingo. There is where my spirit of generational curse and strong men of destruction, that's where it was hiding. Now what's interesting in this text was that this doorway was hiding behind a wall that was covered. And the only way that they was able to be able to go beyond the wall is Ezekiel had to dig into a small hole that God by the finger of the Lord had poked into the wall. This is why the Bible says if I cast out demons by the finger of God then surely the kingdom is among you. Now many of your problems that those of you under the sound of my voice, you're saying, but I don't understand, I'm in deliverance. What is still potentially wrong with me? Very simple. You haven't paid attention to the small hole that the finger of Lord has poked in a wall that you think is nothing there. The door is behind a wall that has been plastered over but God loves you enough to tell you there's a hole there, pay attention to it. And the only way you could go there is Holy Spirit, remove the wall. No, the Holy Spirit is not gonna remove the wall. You have to take the shovel and you have to dig and watch this and you have to dig deep enough to be able to find it. So it's not just, well I did look, there's nothing there. God says dig deeper, dig deeper. It's nothing different than what Elijah told the servant when he said, I don't see anything. And he said, go back and look again. And go back and look again. And go back and look again. And finally, finally the servant came back and said, I see a cloud the size of a man's apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, teacher, the size of a man's hand. I see something there. And then the Bible says Elijah said, prepare for I hear what? The sound of an abundance of rain. So I dug into the wall and I saw a hidden doorway. And God said, go in and see the wicked and detestable sins they are committing there. So I went in and saw the walls covered with engravings of all kinds of crawling animals and detestable creatures. And I also saw various idols worshiped by the people of Israel. So in this text, as he dug deeper, he was able to find a hidden doorway like a labyrinth because had he been amazed, he would have walked by and said, there's nothing there. I'm gonna keep going. But God said, the way to get out or the way to go through deeper deliverance is problem solving, which means what looks like nothing is there could actually be the place where something actually is there. So how do you and I receive deeper deliverance by digging deep enough? Now look at this. Turn with me to second Corinthians chapter six, verse 17. I'm gonna show you the four levels of what this actually means. And then we'll kind of call you up and we'll help you get set free. How many of you wanna get set free? Amen. Amen. Look what it says. Second Corinthians chapter six, verse 17 says, wherefore come out from among them and be separate says the Lord and touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you. Notice how the verse here does not say touch not the sinful thing. Most of us are not touching the sinful thing. Notice how it doesn't say touch not the abominable thing. Most of us are not touching the abominable thing. The text here says touch not the unclean thing. Unclean and sinful are not the same thing. Unclean just means ceremonially unfit to serve. That's all it means. It means on a sit down until you're ready to serve again. This is why when the priest would touch something unclean they weren't disqualified from the priesthood. They were unfit to serve for a particular timeframe. And then they were qualified again. Maybe the reason why, even after your deliverance that you're wondering, why was it that I still feel like I'm on sit down? And I'm going through deliverance. It's not because you're doing something sinful. It's because there are unclean things that are there hidden in a doorway that God is actually saying you're not digging deep enough because you don't know that it is wrong. See, now watch this. There are four levels of what this unclean thing would actually mean. And I'm just gonna give it to you very quickly. Number one is the word defile. Number two is the word contaminated. Number three is unclean. And number four means corrupted. Now watch this. The word defile means no longer in a state of purity or perfection because someone touch it. Now to help you understand this, when a woman is raped in the Bible, it doesn't say rape. It actually says she was defiled. Defiled means that the innocence of her virginity was taken that she can never get it back. Now spiritually, I know how we can kind of word play that and get people delivered and God will give them the innocence of that experience back spiritually. But in the natural, once something is virgin and now it's no longer virgin, you can never make it a virgin again. And this is why the Bible says that when someone loses or someone loses their virginity, they are considered defiled which means the state of innocence and purity is no longer there because someone touched it. Now what does this have to do with us? Because just because someone touched it, doesn't mean you're carrying it. It means someone just touched it. So if a woman was raped, she is not carrying rape, she was raped, but she's not walking away with rape. It just means that her innocence has been removed. That's called to be defiled, to be defiled. Now watch this. The second word is contaminated. It means the same thing as the first one. It means no longer in a state of perfection or pure. It means someone touched it, but this time, now you're carrying it. So watch this. So now the person was touched and they were molested and raped, but now they walk away and now they're having desires to rape. So now they are contaminated. Now I'm using that as an example because of the level of infraction of how bad rape is, but this could be anything, which means this is why the Bible says bad company corrupts good morals, which means you could get around somebody who's negative and now you're defiled, but it doesn't necessarily mean you've been contaminated. But once you start getting in a relationship with them and you start listening to what they are saying, even though you leave their presence, now you are contaminated. So now I can tell who you're talking to because you're talking just like them. You are contaminated just like them. So this could be for anything. You're listening to secular music, watching too much TV, whatever the case may be. Now when you get around it, you're defiled, but when you walk away from it, now you're contaminated. It's not the same thing. Okay, now unclean. The word unclean is connected to the first two, right? So the Bible says touch not the unclean thing. So watch this. It means no longer in a state of perfection or purity, if someone touched it, not only are you carrying it, but now God has to sit you down because now not only are you carrying it, now you wanna touch other people. So God says I have to sit you down because not only are you carrying molestation on you, now as a preacher, you're desiring to now molest other people because you were molested. So this is the reason why when you're unclean, God has to sit you down because now you've been given a place of influence and your contamination can now be transferred on other people. So God says touch not the unclean thing because then I'm gonna have to sit you down with your anointed self simply because what you're carrying on the inside can be now transferred to other people. And watch this. You don't know what you're carrying because you haven't dug deep enough. So sometimes you don't know that you're carrying. A bad attitude can be a demon and you think it's just a bad attitude. It can be anything. So God is saying touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you. See? See, look at this. And then the fourth one is corrupted. Corrupted is the final resting place of the first three which means you go beyond defiled of just being touched. You go beyond contaminated of just having it. You go beyond unclean, now you wanna give it. Now you are it. Which means now the person have embraced what they are. So we'll say things like this. That's not a demon. That's just my attitude of how I am. Do you see it? Now watch this. So how do you get to the level of addressing this? God has a failsafe plan for that. Look at this. Turn with me to second king chapter four verse 35. Is this good? Amen. All right, so I'm an apostle. So I do a lot of revelating before I actually do deliverance because deliverance without revelation is witchcraft. Okay, so. All right, you have to teach the people so they can understand. All right, look at this. How do we get to that place? Look at this. Second king, now here is where I'm gonna drive a point in. That's just my introduction. It's not the message. Okay, I wanna be free. I don't wanna be a person of influence having my own issues still because my issues can be transferred out of the people and they will receive what I fail to get delivered from. And sometimes I don't know that I need to be delivered because I already live in this ecosystem of deliverance. Do you see what I'm saying? So look at this. Look at this. Second king chapter four verse 35. Just one verse. Then he returned and walked in the house to and fro and went up and stretched himself upon him and the child sneezed how many times? Seven times and the child opened his eyes. So what do we see here? We see the prophet outstretching himself over this young child and what happened? And he rebuked the network of death there and death came out of this young man's body by the sneezing of how many times? Okay, now sneezing, I think I'm preaching to the choir with this one, but sneezing is your body's way of conducting deliverance in the natural. When your body has a foreign bacteria, you don't even ask for it. Boom, your body releases it. Your body casts it out. Did you catch it? All right, so in this situation, the spirit of death was working inside the young boy and the spirit of death came out from where? From the inside. Hold this thought. Second king chapter five verse 14. Same book chapter later. Okay, then Naaman went down and he dipped himself how many times? He dipped himself seven times according to the saying of the man of God. And what does the Bible say? I love what the Bible says in the King James Version. Look what it says in the natural. It says what was restored to him. It says his innocence. This goes back to what we were saying. Did you catch it? So how many times did he dip himself to get to that place? Seven times. And this cleansing was not on the inside. Where was this cleansing at? It was on the outside. So the young child got cleansed on the inside seven times to be able to break it, go deeper. And now watch this. The Naaman dipped himself seven times on the outside to dig deeper on the outside. Watch this. Look at this. Leviticus chapter eight. Leviticus chapter eight, verse 10 and 11. Look what it says. It says, and Moses took the anointing oil and anointed the tabernacle and all that was therein and sanctified them. And he sprinkled on the altar, what? Seven times and anointed the altar and all the vessels and the labor, his foot to do what with them? To sanctify them. Here's my question. Why isn't one time good enough? Why did Moses had to anoint the holy things more than once? When for us, you know, in the Christian church, we do it one time. Do you see what I'm saying? So not only this, your anointing and the glory that you carry and your assignment also needs to get purged because the last thing you wanna be is profit but you a nasty profit. The last thing you wanna be is an apostle but you a Jezebel apostle. Did you catch what I just said? The last thing God wants to do is to allow you to get to a place of influence and give you a bazooka but you're still a child and you're blowing people up. Okay, so watch this. So look at this. So it's not just you need to get anointed, your gifting and your callings also need to get delivered as well. And look at this, watch this. Leviticus chapter 14. Leviticus chapter 14, verse 51. He will take a cedar stick and a hisser branch, the scarlet yarn and a live bird and dip them in the blood of the slaughtered bird and into the fresh water and then he will sprinkle the what? He will sprinkle the house seven times. So not only do the furniture in the house go through a measure of deliverance seven times, not only do the young boy get delivered from the inside seven times, not only did the man of influence get delivered on the outside seven times but now God is saying not only just anoint what's inside the house, anoint the house seven times. So now you gotta go deeper seven times. So we have seven, seven, seven, seven, right? Now watch this, now watch this. Look at this, look at this. Proverbs chapter 24, verse 16. Look what it says, for a righteous man falls, not one time, falls how many times? Seven times and does what? And rises up again. Watch this, watch this, watch this. The Bible is very clear that Mary Magdalene was delivered of how many? The Bible says out of home came out seven demons. Now watch this, last, look at this, look at this, second to last verse. Exodus 29, verse four through nine. Closing contacts will call you up, hallelujah. Present Aaron and his sons at the entrance of the tabernacle and wash them with water. Dress Aaron in his priestly garments. The robe worn with ephod, the ephod itself and the breastplate, then wrap the decorative sash of ephod around him. Look at verse six, place the turban on his head and fasten the medallion up to the turban. Look at verse seven, then anoint him by pouring the anointing oil over his head. Next, present his sons and dress them in their tunics. So watch this, let me just interject. Notice that there's a generational transfer going on here. So the head is being completely wardrobe change and what does the text say? That as the head gets it, give it to the sons. Watch this, look at this, look at this. Wrap the sashes around the waist of Aaron and his sons and put their special head coverings on them. Look what it says, then the right, the legal right to the priesthood will be theirs by law forever. In this way, you will ordain Aaron and his sons. Now watch this. Look down to verse 35 and 37. Look at this, look at this. This is how you will ordain Aaron and his sons to their offices, just as I commanded you. Look what the text here says and I'm done. We'll call you up, help you get free. The ordination ceremony will go on how many? Here's my question. Isn't one ordination service good enough? Why must I do it seven days? Imagine, have you ever been to a consecration service? That could be long and dragged out, right? And they're beautiful. Imagine doing that seven days. The Christian church, we only do it once, right? Now why would God say, I thought when something was anointed, it's already clean? Let me say it again. I thought once something is already anointed with the oil and cleaned and ready and dressed, I thought that that's it. Why would God say, do this for seven days? Why? Because hidden inside Aaron was a golden calf that he would allow the people to worship. Oh, you missed that. Sometimes you don't know what's really in there. So God is saying you have to keep repeating it until you go deeper and go deeper and go deeper until you actually find it, until you've dug deep enough. And when you dig deep enough, bingo, there it is. Most of us stop on the first day. That was a good ceremony, I'm good, I got delivered. Some of us might even go to the second or third day because we're being submissive to our pastors and leaders. But God is saying your issue is way too deep for you to think that one altar call and one deliverance session and one help me go through some renouncing is gonna be good enough. How many of you know that your issues run 30, 15 years deep that just waving over me like Benny Hinn is not good enough? That's a good place for the first day. But baby, you got six more days to get in here. Had to go through seven consecrations to get deep enough to allow him to authentically be ready to serve in the capacity that God was going to take him. This is why many of you get delivered and you're kind of just still serving in your church. And amen, stay there. But for some of you, some of you will graduate from serving to leadership. And then there are others that are here that will graduate from helping another man's vision come to pass that eventually God will place in your hands, your own vision. There are apostles and prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers in this very crowd. The Christian experience is not just serving my church. That's the first place. The point is to get to the point of consecration of release to operate and function in the temple. God is saying you have to go through all seven days. Hello Mary Magdalene, you have to go through all seven demons. I have to get out. This is the reason why the Bible says when an unclean spirit leaves, it comes back with what? This is why you have to keep going. We have to, and God sent me here to tell you that you, for many of you, God is saying you need another form of equipment. God says, put your sword down, put the hammer on the hammer belt. And God says, go get yourself a shovel. God says you anointed. God says you anointed, but still nasty. God says you have favor, but you are taking time bomb. God says right now you're submissive because you have never been told no. All is well. It's very easy to say I'm good. I got anointed on the first day. God says you don't know the future. You don't know the future. Especially for those of you that would say I would never do that. Hello Peter, I would never deny you. Really, today you're gonna deny me. Did you catch it? And God is saying that he honors the fact that you started the process because some don't even get to the first day. But God says your anointing consecration and full deliverance has just started. Baby, you got six more days. God says some of you have five more days. Some of you have three more days. Some of you, for some of you God is saying you got one more day left on the sixth day of your ordination. We mess up because the church has taken too long to launch me. Oh, I don't know where my destiny is but whatever the case may be and on that last day you mess it up and you walk away. Now you have to start that thing all over again. And what happens? God does not banish you. That's not grace, but under grace. Thank God for grace. But God puts you on sit down because you're unclean. You're unfit for service right now. I can't allow that with that still in there. And it's still there because you're having to dig deep enough. God sitting me here to help you dig deep enough. And for others of you, we're gonna call you up. We just come up together. We'll go through a mass deliverance. For others of you, God's gonna place a shovel in your head. I know that sounds crazy. God giving you a shovel, well, the text here says make sure that when you go to war you have a shovel with you because during that process you need deliverance. The last thing you want to do is in the middle of a fight holding it in. Did you catch it? Have you ever held it in in real life? It dominates every other area. You can't even focus. You're sitting there talking to somebody like. Wishing. How many of you know your body kind of knows when it's close to getting relieved that as soon as you get to the bathroom it's like, ah, you're like, oh. And some of you are at the cusp of your full breakthrough. God's sitting me here to dig. If you need deliverance, let's come up front. Hallelujah, let's jump into this thing. Come up front, let's come up. You wanna go, you wanna get deeper. Let's get, let's go there. Let's go there, let's go there, let's go there, let's go there. Let's go there, praise God. Let's go there, let's go there. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Those of you watching online, feel free to join us through Zoom. Those of you watching by way of YouTube, the Holy Spirit will touch you. Arrabah. As you come to the altar, lift your hands. Thank you, Father. Love that shirt, defund the demonic. Love it, hallelujah, hallelujah. Now, the driving point of today was that number seven. Now, listen to me, it's not the number seven. Actually, it's about continuance until you find it. It's digging until you find it. Don't get caught up with, I need six more deliverances and get caught, because if you get caught up with the number, you'll enter into legalism. Because then after seven, you'll be like, I don't need no more deliverance, I'm good. The man of God said seven. That's not what I'm saying. What I am saying is you're not digging deep enough. Hallelujah. Hands raised, let's do this. Shaqat Arama, turn it up. Thank you, Father. Shirah Baqa Dama Soremeh, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Thank you, Father. Cry out to the Lord.

Just want to lay hands on him Because I know the struggle I was you lift your hands young man. What's your name? Fidel, okay, I did time in prison. So I know I know struggle You know church was not attractive to me The only difference was that I didn't have a Church like this when I came out 1998 nine years in prison and nobody and I struggled my way through Here's here's how I survived at least in the beginning because I didn't have deliverance Was that I made sure that no matter what happened to me I'd never leave church that if I was gonna be a hypocrite. I might as well be a hypocrite in church I'm just not gonna go back to the world That was my mindset because we're from the same thing if I'm not gonna be if I'm gonna be a hypocrite I'm not gonna go. I didn't I decided to change that mindset and say, you know what if I'm gonna struggle I don't know if I'm gonna stay here and I'm not gonna move and I was able to be consistent and here I am this was in 1998. This is how long ago. All right Now the struggles are back then. I'm not the same of now now It's a bit different as you guys are dealing with a lot I don't pray for you don't want to lay hands on you that what God did in my life He can they transferred and do it on your life and that you'll be used in the same area of deliverance like me All right, and I'm gonna tell you why to be a deliverance minister now We all can cast out demons but to do what we're doing you have to have a particular personality to get it done God needs somebody that's bold. Got me somebody that's fearless. Got me somebody. That's a reformer someone who doesn't care God needs someone who says in their mind that the way I used to serve the devil or hype I'm gonna do the same way harder for God Because God needs people tough to be able to get in that so lift your hands I'm gonna lay hands on you and I'm gonna bless you for you then with the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ That's upon my life in the area of Deliverance and freedom may it be transferred upon you as you continue to grow in your Christian faith as you continue to submit to your Leaders as you continue to learn and sit at the feet of Jesus may your knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ be increased May your love for the Lord be increased and accelerated into your spirit May God grant you an opportunity to be used by him and to help set the captains free I break and I suffer any generational curses coming down the bloodline That might try to take you to go back into the world may the same angels of protection that were assigned to me to keep Me focused be transferred upon you now in the name of Jesus May God suffer and break off family and sibling rivalry and issues in your family May you continue to grow and excel in that area and may God make you a man of God from this day forward in Jesus mighty name Be transferred on you now in Jesus mighty name Rest and transfer on you for them now in the name of Jesus Hallelujah may your heart remain humble May your mind remain sensitive to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and the prompting of the brethren around you to help Mentor you and pour into you may God allow you to continue to grow and may God you use you to help set the captives free in the Name of Jesus in his time in his time in the name of Jesus and that time is not going to be long Because you're in a good house and they'll train you to go in that direction continue to submit and continue to serve the Lord And may God continue to break all family generational curses now in Jesus mighty name Hallelujah, thank you father now musicians you guys can come and continue singing you could change the song now You can switch it up now. Amen Hallelujah, thank you Lord. Thank you. Just whatever's on your heart. Hallelujah. We're gonna go into the next service. Thank you, Lord I'm gonna lay hands on all of you.

We're at Maple Street Lake Park with Tom Markinac. What's going on here Tom? One of our big plans for this year was trying to make more of the jumps and more of the trails accessible for just more bike members of the community and the way that we're doing that is we're turning our middle jump line which was rebuilt maybe two years ago and we're making it all tabletop so whereas the jumps used to have gaps in the middle now they do not have gaps they're filled in the middle and that allows for younger riders and more beginner riders to access the jumps with the safety of kind of being able to just roll over them and practice them that way first. Describe the layout of this park for us. So we have three lines of the park there's a small line which mostly consists of rollers and some small jumps we have a middle line which is made up of tabletop jumps which again have that takeoff lip a flat filled in area and then the landing and then we have an advanced line which is jumps that have gaps in the middle the jumps are about four feet tall the gaps are anywhere from you know five to eight feet with gaps in the middle and then we also have a pump track up top which is a great place for beginners to just get the feel of riding over rollers riding around berms and just practicing getting that that bike feel. Oh I love this place it's fun. Now is there a map at the top? One of our projects for the upcoming year is we're going to make signs for the whole park we've had them in the past when the park was originally built in 2012 but the signs have kind of worn down they got broken so one of our plans for the upcoming year is to make sure we have signage all around the park that tells what each line is what the purpose of each line is and what it looks like to be riding within that line. We decided just recently to start a new committee for the park I'm one of the members of that committee along with a couple other people here what we're hoping to do with the committee is make sure that when we do have these dig days or these maintenance days word gets out to the community we have set plans for what kind of work is going to be done and we can have just more organization around the park and planning for what supplies we need what kind of resources we want to have for the park and just have a more organized group of people here to help out and maintain the park. Terrific. Well congratulations on a successful dig day inaugural dig day. Thanks for stepping up to carry on the tradition. Thank you very much I appreciate all the help today. You're welcome. My pleasure.

An episode of the Generally Irritable show with Ericka Redic. "Join me for a conversation with Pastor Todd Callahan of Ignite Church Vermont. He is as snazzy a dresser as he is passionate about the Lord and the people of Vermont. We'll be discussing what it has been like leading the church through the pandemic, the government attacks on Liberty and people of Faith, and what it's like being in the most unchurched county in the country."

Okay, that was a weird echo happening. Did anybody else hear that or is that just on my end? I'm good on the side. You are okay. I wonder if something did something start playing on my computer. Hold on. Hey everybody Welcome to this week's edition of generally irritable Getting things all set up on this end so I can answer your questions. Oh, yeah, I bet you it was this thing was playing Over the other thing. Oh, right Here we go Here we go. Everything is all set. I Am super duper excited for this week's episode. I I probably say that every episode but I'm always really thrilled with the folks that we get to have come on generally irritable to talk about what's going on in Vermont what's going on in the Burlington area and How we can support one another Just generally Many of you who have been watching me for a while have probably heard me share about my Christian faith I don't always make a big deal out of it. I don't always mention it in every episode because Because I don't want that to overshadow all the other things that we're talking about and the reason that We do that is because the reality is the Burlington area and Vermont are actually kind of prejudice against Christians Like there's a lot of prejudice against Christians. I'm not supposed to use that word because It's supposed to be reserved for other people who experience prejudice but the reality is Vermont is the most un-churched state in the Union and Chittenden County is the most un-churched County in the state and that really means something for the folks who live And work in Vermont who consider themselves people of faith And it's especially challenged a lot of people over this last year during the pandemic And I couldn't think of a better person to have on to talk about it than mr. Todd Callahan pastor Callahan from Ignite Church in South Burlington pastor Callahan say hello to everyone Everybody is great to be with you tonight. Yes so I am so excited because You're like a misfit. You're a rebel misfit Who just is like screw you and those those are my words not past your Callahan's But I just love I've loved watching your church specifically through all of this Just really be willing to stand in the gap With you know so much more mental illness people suffering from and all of this pain And then the confusion about the government trying to control things and everybody's just kind of like Yeah, and and through it all You stayed true to the gospel You stayed true to your congregation and your people you remained open and welcoming you made sure people had a home and And even more so, you know, not only that people could come find a safe space But that you were actively I hate to use the word advertising, but you've been actively sharing That there is a safe space for people to come to not just kind of like Like many churches in vermont who just sort of like We're just gonna stay over here and hope nobody notices us You are just out there and they're like no come we're here Yeah, absolutely I have I have so many questions for you and I have so much I want to talk about but why don't you start by sharing for just a few minutes about um What it was like first of all first of all, I want to know how you got roped into coming up to vermont I want to know how that happened lots of prayer So share with our viewers You know what you how you got here Well, first of all, you know, how you came to faith. How about that? Why don't you start telling folks a little bit about how you came to your faith? Um, and and then what brought you and your family up to vermont? Yeah, absolutely. Well, um, I I grew up here as a as a as a kid my my my father and mother came to pastor Here where we are right now at ignite church back then it was marathons a christian church and um We moved up here. I was six years old. We moved from north carolina And I remained here until I graduated high school as soon as I graduated high school like many high school seniors are Like see it to vermont. We're out of here. I did the same thing and went down south and I ended up in orlando florida for 21 years and began to Really begin to to understand the calling and the mantle that god had for my life individually, you know, sometimes growing up as a as a pk you um, oftentimes can ride mom and dad's coattails through some experiences until god has an awakening in your own heart and life And you know, there were there were times where I told god I'm never going into full-time ministry. Don't call me into full-time ministry. I've seen what that's You know, that life has been like through my parents. Don't do it. I'm not going. I want to answer you call I want to answer and um So I remember I was I worked at a bank in orlando for just outside of orlando for about seven and a half years And I remember sitting at my desk And there was just this an awake this this this thing pounding the holy spirit pounding on my heart and awakening my spirit That it was time to step into that mantle. So I began a full-time ministry in 2004 I come up to vermont to lead a worship here at the church for a couple of years and The the season just wasn't right. It wasn't it wasn't as it needed to be so we went back down to florida and Spent another season in florida actually into the 10 years in florida before receiving the mantle to come here and pastor This this work here. So it went from marinatha christian church to living hope christian church And we changed the name when we took that mantle as senior pastors to ignite church and it has been a ride So Okay, so I just so everybody knows you said pk It means pastor's kid. Yeah preachers kid pastors kid just in case anybody doesn't know what that word means So how long have you been back in vermont this time? We have been back for about four and a half years now four and a half years So basically i'm realizing that you also are one of those people who tried to leave and then just got sucked back in Like vermont is sort of like this vortex That just sucks you in and keeps you there Yeah, absolutely It was a lot of prayer we had pioneered a church in rlando things are going really well Um, and god just began knocking on the door of our heart to come to vermont And um, matter of fact, my wife had the bags uh packed and the boxes packed and things were happening before I had even You know finished praying through it. She said I hear it. I know what in my spirit. We're going I'm like baby. You got to let me finish praying. I mean, let's let's make sure this is what we're supposed to do And um, uh, without a doubt. This is where god Is has called us to be for the season and we're so excited to be here Oh my god, that is so amazing. I remember so I first heard about you guys and uh, uh case will probably get mad that I that I am dogging him out for this but when uh last summer or last fall, I guess it was when um You were inviting candidates for office to come speak at the church Yeah, and I I remember being like wow Um, I'm not even really allowed to share that I'm running for office Like I mean all my all my friends at the church know that I'm running But I can't like have a table or anything like that. They are not announcing it and you're gonna let me come Sit on your stage for five minutes and talk. That's amazing Sure And I remember one of the other candidates was like, oh my god, you should see this guy Go look at the video from this sunday and check out his jacket and you got to see his shoes You just have to see his shoes and I remember looking at the video and being like wow This guy is a flashier dresser than my husband and I think that that was possible Oh goodness, well, we've all got our little our little Niche things that we like and shoes is just one of mine the wilder and crazier the shoe the better I like it So how many pair of shoes do you have? Oh my goodness more than my wife if that's a I know this has nothing to do with like being a Christian or anything, but I just think it's great. I love it It's one of the things that I love about my husband He has a bunch of crazy shoes too and jackets and he likes to have fun And and that was one of the things I remember being really attracted to him was here was this man This gets to a point about Christianity. Just so everybody knows Here's this man who is handsome and smart and capable And he has fun and he'll wear silly costumes and he wears these flashy clothes And he doesn't take himself too seriously and he can still have a good time And I just remember being really attracted to that and then Finding out that he was a Christian And being like, oh, I don't know about that because at the time I I wasn't a Christian And um as I tell everybody, uh, I grew up in a family of Christians that are the reason why people hate Christians And so it was really interesting to be down in texas and getting to meet this whole new breed of of Christian Because in my mind all I could imagine What Christianity was Was being mean and Mean spirited and you think everybody's going to hell And you want to be people over the head with the bible and if you don't believe Then you're a piece of crap and we're gonna alienate you and And we saw I mean that was a real thing that happened in brahmat And I'll I'll say in the burlington area just because that's where my family was And I really feel like a lot of the The hostility Towards christians in vermont and in the burlington area Stems from this this time period where What people thought it meant to be christian was to be super judgmental and tell everybody they were going to help And so I wonder if there's Like do you can you share anything about that? Especially since you grew up in the church Can you share like what you've seen and kind of change and shift since maybe like the 80s the 70s and 80s that You know, we're the I I swear to god the catholic church has turned more people atheist than they've sent to heaven, but I'm I'm gonna probably get in trouble for saying that but no, you know, I can vouch for that There's a lot of folks that that i'm recently connecting with that have come out of the catholic church and there's a lot of Not not only theological Teaching that has to be unlearned, but there's a lot of practice Of christianity that needs to be reconfigured I think when we get to the point of saying well, god can't move because I remember the first time I wore jeans on the platform To speak somebody about had a heart attack that I was And as as I you know, you think about about how superficial that is And that just that that one example can exemplify Um a whole generation of people having grown up in the church. You had to wear the suit You had to have your hair part. It had to be shaved. You had to look pristine because you were giving your best to god If someone didn't show up looking like you it would be where did they come from? Why are they here? You know kind of thing not understanding that God doesn't always show up looking like god And that we've allowed a lot of fundamental belief systems that really have nothing to do with the kingdom of god and make its way into the corporate worship setting And when we begin to evaluate that realize that maybe god hasn't moved because we've put up the wall We've put up the barrier The and we're trying to classify people within the subculture of the church instead of letting god bring in Who he's going to bring in how he wants to bring the men when he wants to bring them in and you know I think we're doing a great job as a church when church starts to get real dirty This is literally I I would say you know, I've been sober for 12 years now and I remember You know being at meetings 12 step meetings And you see the guy or the girl walk in That you know, they're wearing like a half shirt And the in the pants are dirty. They look like they haven't combed their hair for a week their breath smells Like that's the person I want to talk to. Yeah That's the person who needs us. That's right You know, I don't god didn't come to save the perfect That's right and and the pristine he came to save The suffering and the downtrodden Yeah, so so that's so I've heard a lot of old timers Kind of complain about that same thing you just mentioned about like, oh my god, the pastor's wearing jeans world's gonna end And oh, well, that's you trying to fit into the world and you know, like I mean, you have to be relatable to a certain extent, right? Like you have to be able to relate to people. They need to be able to so Why like where's the line? Do you think between? You know changing the way a sunday service looks to make it more welcoming for people and being of the world Yeah, absolutely. Well, it's kind of like um Why don't you wear a tie? Well, I don't like the way a tie feels. I don't like a tie A tie is not going to help me preach any better or any worse. That tie is sure. Are you sure? I'm sorry. I'm sorry You know, I mean it's it's preference You you like something like that great wear it and I think that you know, some Some ministries kind of take on the personality Of the pastor because the pastor doesn't lose his personality. He doesn't lose the the the fabric of who they are Um as a person, uh, just because they're a pastor So, you know, um, um their pastors who you know are going to dress and look one way and there's pastors depending on You know, how they've grown up where they're where they're serving You know, maybe it's a denominational setting, you know And there's specific rules and guidelines and things like that where They're going to reflect something different Um, and again, that doesn't mean that the message of the gospel is any less effective based on what the pastor's wearing Or how the people in the congregation look um, and I think that is a very superficial aspect of Of um, christendom if I can use that term That has caused The unsaved and caused people outside The four walls of a church to look inside and say it's nothing but a bunch of religion It's nothing but a bunch. It's a show You know, I won't fit in there. They're they're not going to accept me things like that So I think that stigma over the last Seven to ten years maybe has really began to be broken and I think we're beginning to see an influx of of New believers because the church is that it's relatable We're not so disconnected from what's happening in the culture But the church seems incapable of speaking into the culture. I think we can get that way Um, but I but I think we got to be careful to make sure that we're not We're not walking in those steps. Well, and that's I I totally just lost my train of thought You said, um, it's Oh man Whoa, it was gonna. Oh man. It was gonna save everyone I was going to ask a question and you were going to answer and like everybody in the world was going to get saved all at one time Oh, goodness. No, seriously. Um, so it just makes like I I'm so glad to see I think you're right. I think it is starting to you know, some of oh, I know what it was one of the things that I Learned about myself and and it's one of the things I ask other people when I'm talking to them about, you know Why jesus basically and I say Okay, so you got church hurt. That's that's another term that we use in the church church hurt, right? Like somebody hurt you in church Somebody was a jerk Maybe even worse like you were molested by a priest or something like that awful, right? And what I always ask people I say, okay, so somebody Was a jerk to you What's that got to do with jesus, right? Absolutely, why are you gonna let You're a relationship With a god who loves you Unconditionally and wants only what's best for you Because some human Was a jerk Absolutely and it's like people don't perfect people There's going to be church hurt And so then you'll have people say Well, if god really loved me, why did he let something bad happen to me? How do you answer that? Yeah, well it goes back to the the the depravity of the mind as the bible speaks of it goes back to the The carnal nature of mankind it goes back to the sinful nature It goes back to iniquities and it goes back to proclivities the things that we have to Deal with and and begin to Root out of our life so that we can become As as gods call this to be and what he's called us to walk in and reflect You know when we talk about when someone says to you I see the glory of god on you They're seeing I they're saying to you I see the reflection and the image of god In your life and and we all need to be that city that's set on a hill that can't be hidden So that within that there's always going to be these elements of our Of our personality elements of our demeanor that that may not be Acceptable to others and they're going to get hurt. They're going to feel offended And sure we want to make that right, but we can't live under the microscope of thinking that church is going to be perfect And everybody there no one's going to hurt me Yeah, we've got a church, you know every church is imperfect because the body of christ is made up of imperfect people My favorite is people will be like well christians are hypocrites and I go Yeah, yeah And absolutely like that's the whole point I need jesus because i'm trash Yeah My husband I keep saying we got to stop saying that we have this we have this saying that like You know the reason we don't trust the government is because people are trash and the government is people And what that really means is like even in our best moments When we think that we're being kind or generous We can often be actually creating confusion or harm in ways that we don't realize That's what we mean when we say people are trash because we are by nature selfish and self-centered and So I am not confused when people let me down Absolutely I sort of expect it in the right categories if you have people in the wrong category Then you're going to get hurt. You're going to be broken You're going to to to feel as though that relationship is compromised and I think as we put people in the right category We have the right expectations out of that relationship When you say category, what does that mean? Like what are some examples of categories? There's a there's a saying that that there are people that come into your life for a reason for a season and for a lifetime I think we've got to make sure that we've got You know those who are friends Those who are confidants those who are part of our inner circle. We've got to make sure that we I don't want to use the term label, but we put those relationships in the right category So we know what to expect out of them If I if I have got someone who I know is just going to be in my life for a short season I don't go, you know for a cup of coffee with them and spill my entire life You know sharing with them because I know that relationship is is going to be sort of superficial. It's going to be short term If I've got someone who has invested into my life, and I know they're going to be around for an extended period of time That's where those deeper conversations Can be had so I think sometimes in in church circles We think because everyone's Christian that everyone is an open door because we're of like faith We're of like mind. We're of like spirit, but you you just cannot be an open door to everyone who's who walks into your you know your your sphere well, and I think that they're the You know in our culture now everything is about You know my truth and my happiness and if you don't know how to act right and you hurt my feelings Well, I'm just gonna buy you know, whatever the you know the Colloquialism is of the day. It's just every Everyone is disposable right And and then you wonder why you have people who are you're in relationship with like So everybody's disposable, right? But if you're in a relationship with anybody for any extended period of time, I mean, you know, you how long have you been married? Uh, we actually our anniversary is tomorrow Yes, and it'll be 21 years. Oh my god. That's amazing happy anniversary And then and then how old is your oldest kid? She is 20 20. Okay. Yeah, it'll be 22 years tomorrow and she's 20. Yeah. Oh my god Okay, so how many times in those 20 and 22 years did you just want to like punch one of them in the face? Like oh, yeah, you know what I mean? Like I love my husband. I adore him We've regularly bicker So where where do you think this idea comes from? That like Oh, well every relationship is just supposed to be easy peasy and if anybody hurts my feelings It's because they're a terrible person. It can't be like i'm responsible in any way or you know, where does that come from? Yeah, you know, I don't know I we we my wife and I um, we dated um for several years before we got married and Begin to learn the idiosyncrasies of communication. We were uh, when we met she was um, Just turning 18. I was 19 and um, you know, so we were still she was living with her parents I had just gotten my apartment in orlando and i'm living on my own and now I have to learn how to communicate Outside of my own family with someone who doesn't know me and I don't know them And now we have to get to know each other and I tell you when you know when we got married and began It was the first time obviously each each of us have ever lived with one another So now we're having to learn the idiosyncrasies of of the toilet paper coming over the top of the toilet paper Or this is how I clean and this is how you don't clean, you know, mainly me You know and and so learning to to communicate Um that way teaches us what battles need to be fought and what battles don't need to be fought And I think as a as a as a as a husband and wife, there are just some battles that you don't need to fight They're not worth it. It's not worth the stress. It's not worth the um the the things that may be said in the heat of a moment and I think is as as Especially as christians we need to take a look at how our words are going to impact the future of that relationship and make sure that we're honoring one another husband honoring wife wife honoring husband and together mutually that relationship can continue to to uh, um Be in wholeness and and uh in love and honor each other It doesn't mean you're not going to disagree. It's how you get those disagreements Well, and that's one of the things that is so interesting to me in In these communal larger disagreements that we're having As as vermonters, we'll we'll keep it local right? We could say as a nation Um and as a world but that would be a whole other thing but it's I want to I want to bring two things that you've said together, right? So one is we we're going to have disagreement Right, but especially as christians we are called to see one another As fellow children of god, right even the unbeliever We it is our job. First of all, we're supposed to be much kinder To people who are not christian because we don't We're not on the same team necessarily like we don't we don't have the same expectations of you as a person because You don't believe the same stuff. We do fine, but it's even more so We're supposed to be praying for their soul. We're supposed to see each other as um, you know children of god unique and divine and um Everyone is special and important and in the image of god and all this stuff And yet even christians through all of this pandemic stuff are just like Yeah at each other Absolutely There's been a lot of political divide even within our faith. Yes. Yes, exactly and it's like How do we Have we lost sight of that divinity within each of us? Is it I feel like this is what i've been telling everybody. This is sort of what I came up with last year. I said It's like it's like, you know democrats are the wife Sure, right. Have you read the the book love and respect? I have um, okay, it's called love and respect. Are you listening benjamin? Who wrote that book? Who's the author edgards or something? He's not even listening to me. Anyway, it's this really good book and it's like basically the woman You know, the democrats are the woman in the relationship and they want to be cared for and they want to be loved and they want to be cherished and taken care of And then the and the republicans are the man, right? And the they want to be respected They want their autonomy. They want to you know, be in charge and and be respected for the things that they bring And they're and we're just like we're just like not talking to one another sure and so That might be okay if you're If you're non believers if you're not christians, but for christians to be doing that same thing Like how have we lost sight of what's most important? Well, we've I believe we've allowed the cultural influences to plague the kingdom influence You know, Jesus came to bring his kingdom That's what we are we are sent here to do and we've allowed I believe the the kingdoms of this world to Influence and impact the kingdom of god in a way to where we will step back and say well god I guess you're not going to do it or god I guess you're not going to move in this nation or move in this state And I think as we begin to realize that Each each and every one of us have fallacies each and every one of us are imperfect each and every one of us God is still doing a work in um, I think it's all too easy to use the political landscape As a vice and a wedge to be able to separate Hearts and lives and minds and be able to come at each other Even though we're we're saved and we're we're we're christians and and we're going to church together You know, I've told our congregation multiple times, you know, I don't care if you're democrat I don't care if you're republican. I don't care if you don't you don't believe one way or the other All I care about is that you model yourself after the kingdom of god And that's what we are here to reflect and represent in the earth if we do that well If we do that appropriately as as Jesus commands us to do Then we can turn the landscape of this of this nation around if we will just begin to pray and intercede God will hear the cry of this nation and he'll begin to turn it around if my people who are called by my name Will get on their knees Wait, that's not isiah. What is that? Yeah, I'm so bad at remembering But by humility humble themselves and pray humility Is is is a is a vague word in this in this culture right now We don't understand what humility is and humility is just exactly what you were saying We keep coming together and if we will humble ourselves And not Engage and we don't have to show up to every fight we're invited to Well, and here's my thing. This is maybe crazy Crazy talk, but for anybody who's like well god isn't working. Why isn't he doing anything yet? What better way to bring people into the kingdom than to give them an opportunity to show them that they need him Absolutely I I mean, I'm not saying like god like made the pandemic or anything like that, but but it's normally oh It's somebody sending me messages and it was making noise. Okay What better way because I know for me as an example just in my experience I didn't get sober until I had a reason to get sober. Um, and even Coming to christ So I got sober and you know, I was in a 12 step program. So I was willing to believe in god And then I met benjamin and it started opening up my eyes and when I had that moment. I was going through kind of a second Bottom that's not the right way to say it I tell people I was having a midlife crisis right because I had a good job With an office with my name on it and you know, whatever But I wasn't happy and I wasn't satisfied and I didn't feel like I was living my purpose and That was when I got reintroduced to jesus and to this idea of christianity and what that looked like and I don't god. I pastor. I don't know anybody that moves Without having some pain involved. Absolutely Like I mean, I don't know. Maybe there's some people you probably could name a couple That's how that's how we know we're on the threshold and the brink Of what I believe is going to be the greatest move of god that this generation and this this nation has ever seen We've gone through so much pain. We're so disconnected from one another You know racial tension is at the highest level in modern day history political tension is is an incredible Heights so when we get to a place of realizing that that as believers as christians We have the ability to speak into that You know the fact that you were surprised that I was willing to to Have you come and share that that one sunday? Why not we need to have christians in political spaces in places locally Throughout each each state and around the nation who are who are representing the kingdom of god In in the in the political spectrum of this country and if we don't do that And if people think well because i'm christian I I don't have the ability to speak politically Into this nation. Uh, we're going to be headed down down some difficult difficult roads I I literally wanted to punch people when they would say stuff like that to me I'm just like oh, so you're gonna leave it to everyone else right People who don't share the same values as you you're gonna just let them be in charge of everything Obviously, we don't I wouldn't want to live in a What the heck is it called when the church is like what leads the country? A theocracy I wouldn't want to live in a theocracy by any means absolutely, but There is a reason I mean they the founding fathers did say That this republic and the way that it was built was for a moral and just people That's right And you you don't have to be a christian to be moral and just But it helps absolutely absolutely it does Love thy neighbor like the whole point is like, you know, the government isn't supposed to be providing welfare You're supposed to be providing welfare I'm supposed to be provide like if there's somebody if there is a widow and an orphan in my community it's my responsibility to take care of them and it's almost Call me correct me again. I'm not a biblical scholar by any means But I would almost say that that's a sin to obfuscate our responsibility to the government to do it Sure. Yeah, I think there's a lot of you know, this is why god gives us gifts This is why he gives us purpose is why he gives us a vision You know, Habakkuk talks about the vision very clearly I believe that we could change that greatly if people would get a vision for their life And I think that if if people don't you know, the bible says without without vision people perish Uh without hope um without without faith We're headed down a difficult road But I believe that if people would get a vision for their life and begin to to a walk in the fullness of fulfilling that vision And seeing that vision come to pass that we would see We would see a whole widespread age Whole demographic of people come off of that because they've got something to live for We don't live for for the purposes of fulfilling government mandates and government Walk in government laws or what have you we we have been created to make a difference in the earth in this territory We've been given this territory as the people of god to go after it and take it for the for god's kingdom Not just sit back and leave it to a bunch of politicians to do But for the body of christ to get involved in that political landscape for the body of christ to get outside the subculture of the church and begin to connect with people who have lost their vision Who are stuck in those areas and in those ruts of life where they've lost their purpose? And it's our it is our responsibility to go and seek out the lost And bring them into a place like a local church where they can come in Find god find find a relationship with jesus get surrounded by a company of people so that we can help them Discover their purpose Reach okay, so this is a great time for me to pitch catalyst collective speaking of purpose being here for a purpose Benjamin and I work with this organization called the catalyst collective and they have a program called the purpose project And it is literally a program designed for you to to I went through it again when I wasn't a christian and when I was going through my midlife crisis And it was like wow these people care way too much about me for no reason And that was one of the things that was like another step of attraction towards the church, but It's not churchy in any way So you can do the purpose project whether you're a christian or not It doesn't matter you go and they help you discover it like your You know your meyers big personality type. What are the things that you're passionate about? What are your gifts and talents? What are your roadblocks? Like what are the things that tend to get in your way that you don't like and they basic and it basically like Helps you get a vision For what your unique god-given purpose is And it's because of them that i'm doing this podcast right now. It's awesome I mean really it was like I really thought that I was too damaged and too stupid And had screwed up too much in my life to pursue politics Which was my greatest passion and they helped me see that It didn't matter what I had done and that actually the stupid stuff I've done is actually of benefit and now I have a platform to share with people like you too can recover You can't you have not you have not fallen so far down that you cannot be redeemed and saved And I don't just mean by jesus. I just mean just generally. Yeah um So that's my pitch everybody go to purpose project dot is it purpose project dot com He's still not listening to me. He has said I don't know why I keep talking to him But purpose project or just go to catalyst collective and if you have questions message me So um, we have so everybody that's watching As a reminder, I have mr. Pastor Todd Callahan here with me from ignite church We're talking about Christianity and what it's like to be in hostile territory and uh, so if you have any questions for the pastor just Put them in the chat and we'll read them and ask and just so you know olga said toilet paper is top over always I would 100 agree with her. Okay. Good. Good man. I actually don't care That's one thing we've never argued about. Um, I remember my mom very specifically one time I don't remember what the context of the conversation was but she was like Arguing about that stuff doesn't matter if one person wants to squeeze the the toothpaste from the bottom And you want to squeeze it from the middle just get two tubes of toothpaste There you go. There you go That's my mom is freaking awesome. She's so smart. Okay. Um, okay So ray says I've heard Vermont is one of the least church Church going states does pastor have any thoughts and we did discuss that a little bit earlier Um, do you you don't have any like statistics on that or anything to you? I don't yeah, I don't um, I just know there's there's there's a there's a Harvest field that is right. Oh Oh, I like it. I literally tell all my friends in texas. I'm like yo You don't have to go to south america for a mission trip. That's right. You don't have to go to africa I mean you can do that. We had we just met a pastor And his family are leaving for laos In a in a couple months. That's cool But you could just go from hot Absolutely great mission field territory up here. I told I I Probably gonna get in trouble for saying this but I mean, that's really why I stayed Um, the last couple of years You know, I moved back at the end of 2018 to buy my grandparents house and And that same year was when the abortion bill passed allowing up until the point of birth And and then I found out that there was no personhood status for the unborn So I can assault a pregnant woman Cause her intentionally caused her to lose her unborn child And I will only be charged with assault on the mother And I just remember being like What? Yeah Like what? We dehumanized babies so much to the point where we will just allow Wanted full grown babies to be killed with no recourse for the person who did it Okay, whatever and then gun laws and all this other stuff and I told my husband I was like I don't know where I am right now, but this is not where I grew up Yeah, and I'm not sure what's happening, but I feel Responsible to do something about it Yeah Like there was it's like you said there was this calling on my heart that said I was like, I can't leave I can't leave. I have to do something and I don't know what that means, but I have to just do something Absolutely And it makes me wonder because this is the thing so speaking of the un-churched Un-churched state Why do you think? So many Christians in Vermont are such chickens. I'm gonna get so much trouble for that I'm gonna get so much trouble for that But no seriously like I can't tell you how many people I talked to you that Like I was trying to get some like evangelism stuff going and like oh, what if we did like a graffiti cleanup? That was actually gonna go but then the riots started happening and then it wasn't safe anymore But like it was so hard to get people willing to do any sort of outreach or evangelism like You know just going and helping feed the poor or like whatever Why do you think everybody's so afraid? I mean Literally it says if god is with me nobody can be against me. Okay. I'm sorry. Go talk. No, you're fine I think there's been a lot of a lot of loud voices Over the years that are in opposition Of what we as believers model I believe there. I think there are a lot of Christians in that Because they've left a lot of their faith Experiences up to the pastor to go week after week after week. They maybe have not grown to the point of Vocalizing their faith because they can't talk about it at work They've got to say a family maybe that doesn't want to hear about it So they're they're in they're in constant territory of of not being able to share their faith on a regular basis So when you take someone who doesn't talk about their faith on a regular basis and now say well, we're gonna have an outreach We're gonna They haven't had any practice in that they they've they've been locked up. They've you know, they're they've been back into the corner So many times it's it's really uncomfortable for them. We actually just hired Hired on full-time worship. I'm not worship Outreach and evangelism pastor who's our worship leader's wife She's overseeing our outreach and evangelism full-time because we've got such a harvest Field that we've got to go reach here and I believe that we are we are going to see the least most the least church state In in this nation, we are going to see the greatest move of god come out of this state I'm believing in a revival in in vermont or in the northeast the last one came out of california. So we're due That's right. I'm saying And so one of the things That I think christians are really bad at okay, like i'm this is we're gonna have real talk time sure christians are absolutely trash at sharing their faith and and arguing for the bible or for jesus or whatever because I shouldn't say that Most of the ones I argued with before my husband were just not good at it like Like you can't say to me Okay, so this was one. This is one of the arguments That I heard was somebody said okay. Well if if evolution isn't a thing then how do you explain dinosaur bones? and This person said Lit this was I think my sister told me this story. Uh, and the person said um to test our faith Okay, and I was like Really that was the answer and she was like yeah, and I was like Well, first of all, uh uh The big bang could just as easily have also been let there be light right and um seven days Doesn't mean seven days. So like You know seven days in earthly terms is doesn't necessarily that mean that that's what it was for god And so one of those days could have been one dinosaurs were there and then hey a little bit later humans were there It doesn't it doesn't preclude evolution. It doesn't preclude any of the sciences like None of those that's not even a good answer Yeah, I think you know when you look at apologetics people just it's it's one of those things of not Understanding how to defend your faith that you believe in jesus you believe in the word of god But when you have to stand there and defend your faith Why you believe what you believe? I think that's where we lose a lot of a lot of christians And that's why the bible talks about very specifically. We've got to have our mind renewed daily We've got to allow washing and the watering of the word Um to to take place uh in our in our life so that we can explain Why we are the way we are why we believe what we believe How do you go and compel people as the bible says in the highways in the bible is how do you compel people if you Can't defend your faith and I think a lot of people lean on their testimony More than they lean on the word of god to defend their faith. Well, god saved me from this and god You know saved me from that and that that's awesome. But but why jesus? Why is jesus the only way? Why why why is there absolute truth in the bible? But yet I believe something else But you say I can't go to heaven because I don't believe in what you do So how do you know you're right and how do you know i'm wrong? I think it's very difficult for some for some people to defend that because they feel as though They're demeaning the person that's asking the question by saying well, if you don't believe in jesus, you're not going to heaven Because the bible clearly states there's only one way to the father and that's through the son So I think christians kind of back away from those conversations Out of not wanting to hurt the other person's feelings or not wanting to cause um any animosity from the one asking the question so I think we've allowed the culture And difficult relationships to get in and plague our ability to to emphatically say jesus is the only way Yeah, I think that's interesting that that whole i'm right in your wrong thing I I hear that all of the time like who are you to say that you're you know the answer and To that I often say I don't I could I could die and get to the other side of heaven and have been a hundred percent wrong Absolutely and And if that's true then There are other things that are true with that too like Jesus deserved the death that he got them Because he was running around telling everybody that he was god and that he was the way the the truth in the light And that that was the only way to get to heaven and if he was doing that and it's not true Then he definitely deserved what he got number one number two If I am dead wrong about my faith, which I don't believe that I am and that is you when you talk about testimony, right? Like there's just things that I cannot explain And there is a piece that I have felt that cannot come From this earth that that is what I know And so I would rather Live my life like it's true Die and be wrong But live my life Believing and knowing I'm getting goosebumps Knowing I'm gonna cry. I might cry while we're talking I Knowing that that there is someone out there that loves me so much Despite all of my flaws that he would give his life for me Yeah Yeah That's right. I remember the first time I really Grasp that And that that was that was the day I gave my life to Jesus. It was like wait a second you mean I am perfect and whole Just as I am And I don't have to hate myself for the for the things that I can't fix about myself And I don't have to feel shame and I don't have to feel I mean not that a little shame once in a while isn't a good thing But you know what I mean like I don't have to like live in that under the weight of that Yeah Like what And then I was like everybody needs Jesus now. I'm like everybody needs Jesus. Absolutely I'm saying we have to be bold enough to go out and share that faith Especially in the middle of the climate that we're in right now. Oh my god. Okay, so let's get into okay I I normally don't take this many notes, but I I was so excited I wrote down all these questions because there's so much I want to get to Okay, um Let's see so We have to talk about the pandemic. Yes and the lockdowns. Absolutely. Um, I I So I I I found some articles In some of the local papers being like they're not wearing masks and somebody touched my elbow and I was like I was like you were horrified that somebody Touched your elbow and guided you but I'm Correct me if I'm wrong pastor Do people get coveted through their elbow? No, I'm just kidding. Don't don't answer that We'll probably get banned from facebook and youtube for like all the medical information That already happened to our church. So we're you know practically we can't we can't we can't promote any more posts on facebook You know, we were promoting our our freedom summit this coming weekend next weekend actually and uh charlie kerr coming in june to speak and Found out that facebook has now disabled our ability to sponsor any ads and On facebook and instagram. So hey, you know, it's all good. We I we took the live stream off of facebook I say and maybe may we started realizing that there was a lot of shadow banning happening on our So, you know, we're not going to give those guys the ability to control Um, you know our reach and and what we what we're able to what we want to Put out there as content. So we just took our live streams off of facebook anyway. Oh that is so that is Oh my god, that makes me so irritated. Um There are still people who don't think that uh like shadow banning and stuff like that is a real thing But so okay, so sorry if you if you mentioned this and I missed it So you're off facebook now and instagram, right? They've banned you or whatever But they've they've um suspended your account suspended our ability to promote Any events or any boys like that? Yeah, okay, but they gave you no reason and if you wanted to find out You'd have to go through some in-depth Investigation correct they would they they have to I have to request an internal review And they will look at everything and make a decision on why We were uh, uh adjusted the way we were well, and I think it's interesting. I've even seen people Like reading directly from the cdc Website being banned and cut off because they're like, oh that's now what people want to hear and it's like But that's what you said the science this is the science, right? yeah, so I'm gonna ask you a couple of really hard questions. I'm gonna make you really uncomfortable now so So you guys have had, uh, you know, you've kept you've stayed open um, you've been meeting you have worship, you know, you're not canceling worship um And your folks aren't up there in masks doing worship which is stupid But whatever like I'm like masks anyway So have you had any major outbreaks? No, you have not you know, we we at the beginning of this we closed as everybody did at the beginning with with, you know, some Exceptions, you know, not really knowing what was happening. What was going on? So we did that for several weeks and Got to the point to where president trump. I've made a statement that churches needed to be open As soon as he made that statement That next weekend I decided if if he's making this declaration on a national platform And I wholeheartedly 100 agree we're going to go ahead and open and that's what we did We remained open through the rest of last year and As I had told Our local law enforcement as I had told The health department here in vermont the governor's office. We will I will watch the numbers And if there's ever a time where I feel as though the numbers are high and we've got outbreaks We will take some time away To help that To help that situation we did that in january when vermont had an increase of of covid cases and I made that decision I didn't need a governor to tell me I didn't need a health department official to tell me to do that um, dr Wait, you mean wait You mean you can think for yourself, right? Isn't that what a concept? Do you mean you have a a church full of people who trust you to lead them? Well, you know, here's the thing if if you want to come then you can come if you don't want to be here Because you you you know, you've got some things that you're working through and and you don't feel comfortable in that setting That's fine. You can you can make so I totally interrupted you. Please feel free You were saying something about dr. Louie dr. Louie and I um You know, we we've had some in-depth conversations and and we're on different paradigms and different perspectives and that and that's okay We've taken the precautions at the height of this thing everything we needed to do. We were separating rows We were yeah, we're we're still having we're still treating this with a chlorine based A solution which is what hospitals use Around the nation to treat their rooms and their spaces We're using uv light technology We've got hand sanitizing stations. We're doing everything that we can do We got air purifiers throughout the building in the sanctuary everything that we can do To help make that space clean and pristine when people arrive It's cleaned multiple multiple times throughout the week And we've done everything that we can do to give that make that space presentable and acceptable when people Come in and I don't see that happening at the mall. I don't see that happening in the grocery stores I don't see that kind of treatment happening in public spaces. We've put all of the safety on a mask you think that Home depot was doing all that the one the one store you were still allowed to go to wal-mart Yeah, no no so I was glad to see I I don't think you guys got any like shutdowns or Notices or anything like that from the state. Is that right? That's correct. That's praise jesus That's correct praise jesus for that because I went to do a little extra research in preparation for the show just to make sure and I was like Why were they giving I'm a swore. Why are they giving crap to like I remember the irisburg church got a lot of Play in the media as well And I've actually been surprised to see that They you know while they Bluster a lot about what they're gonna do and how terrible everybody is they didn't actually take much in the way of enforcement against anybody Knock on wood Right, right So that's really good. Well, you know, it helps to have Brilliant legal counsel advising you as well I think chris ann when she comes to the church next weekend will will speak into that But you know when you look at these mandates and you see how they've circumvented vermont's own constitution Not just the constitution of this country, but our own state's constitution. They've circumvented that They've made that essentially irrelevant based upon the mandates they put forward It's very difficult for them to sit here and say well, we're gonna shut you down if you don't do as we say Just because it's a pandemic does not mean the constitutional rights of of Christians of of any american any resident of any state are are now Invalid but but you have so many other churches See, yes Yes And all of these churches. This was the excuse that I was told Was well, you know, it also says in the bible give unto Caesar. What is do Caesar or whatever and I was like Yeah, are you serious right now? I had Romans 13 thrown at me multiple times Multiple times about that. So, you know, just because Caesar says it belongs to Caesar doesn't mean it's Caesar Caesars if it belongs to god and it's of the kingdom, that's where it remains Just because Caesar says you can't you you can't assemble and have worship My bible says not to forsake the assembling of the saints. Well pastor, you have technology you can just Allow that technology to reach people in their home and and listen You cannot tell me that being in the house of god together As an assembly gathering together as the body of christ is the same as watching it on a computer And I think our cell phone it is not and we are like We are human beings are pack animals We need to be with one another and so you like so many people already before this started Had this sense of loneliness and aloneness and a lack of belonging lack of community and somehow you want me to believe that watching somebody on television Is the same as being held when i'm suffering or having somebody hold my hand That's right You know, I can tell you for sure that my husband when uh, we were you know Going back and forth to places for six weeks of him not holding my hand Seeing him on zoom was not sufficient. Absolutely And a marriage can't last that way. That's right relationships While you may be able to have a superficial level there is something about The the energy like I just I know for me personally the closest that I have ever felt to god You know other than like prayer and some other like, you know, really big spiritual experiences In my day-to-day life the closest that I felt to god was when I was working Me to me with another alcoholic taking them through the steps Working with them helping them get sober watching the light bulbs go off As they realize that they're actually free Uh, and that they'll be okay Yeah, there's nothing That has ever come close to that in my regular life We're built to be relational We're not built to be separated the way we have been and and and you hit a very specific Point about mental health and that's why the bible talks about the mind so much Um, you know, I've I've received messages throughout this this whole year this past year of people saying I can't do this anymore Uh, I'm not sure how much longer I can live like this Because they've lost hope And and when when mandates become the driving force when political mandates become the driving force To the hope that we have as a people Then we have lost sight as a nation and we have put we have created We we've created a space for ourselves. That's going to cause great damage to our our our spiritual well-being And our mental well-being. Oh my god. Oh my god. Government is the golden calf. Yeah, absolutely. Oh my god. Yeah Oh my god, I just like probably people have been saying that for a year, but that just just hit me Yeah, dr. Fauci and dr. Levine and the governor and everybody like we have made them our god Yeah Absolutely You know, it's and it's not that we don't value the perspective and the insight of scientists and doctors and of course value that But again, we you know, the we have the ability to make decisions about our health about our Our activity things that we I mean, this is this is a free nation You know, we have the ability to do that and um, we have to protect that and not not necessarily just with Refusing or accepting a vaccine But with our religious liberty and our religious freedom that we have been granted and given In this nation so to put that in the hands of a politician is a very dangerous thing to do Yeah, I know I don't want I don't I don't need you to I don't need you to take care of me Right. I need you to let me take care of myself. Absolutely. They're not coming around making speed limits five miles an hour So nobody dies of a car crash anymore. That's right. They're not banning fast food That's right. So that people don't die of heart attacks anymore. They're not banning Candy bars So people don't have diabetes anymore like right You don't think that you have that much right in any other aspect of my life Well some but you get my point. Yeah, why this and why now? absolutely Where oh man, I don't even know my brain is just like I just don't understand How we got to a place where people are willing to trust the government Yeah, to the extent that they do. Yeah, well, we have a terrible track record. Sure. Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely We had people reaching out to us because I'd made a statement based on in that article that you were you were Just referring to who had said, you know what the pastor was saying That that if jesus was Was in this in this time that we're living in in covet that he would be laying hands on the sick and Getting the sick. I'm like, yes. That's biblical That's what we're called to do as well to lay hands on the sick to pray over them And that was an attempt to to say to make it seem as though we were being Unsafe by laying hands on the sick again Just because Caesar says it belongs to Caesar and which they six feet apart Doesn't mean that I can't lay hands on somebody and come into agreement with them Oh for their healing and I think that if we would have had more churches who were willing to to And again I understand that the heart of the heart of a pastor is to make sure everyone is healthy to make sure everyone Is is safe and I understand that and I appreciate that and I value that And I believe that that I modeled that and that that I that I did that to the best of my ability during during this time But that does not mean that we forsake the gathering and and allow And allow people who are not spiritually minded to make decisions about those who are Yeah, oh my goodness. I Actually, so I'm gonna speak a little I want you to speak a little more on that But I have to read Olga's comment. She wrote the cult of covidians has its high priests. Hmm. That's good. That's a good one Like that's good. I'm gonna use that later. That's that is really what it is but When you're talking about You know, we're called to put hands on people and to pray for them and for their healing and you know, especially Given we weren't even allowed to see our sick and dying family especially um I being You know by coastal You know the hubby and I live in vermont and in texas. Yeah And I saw a very it's a very different world right texas now especially now. There's no mandates Um, there's some places who are still requiring masks and doing whatever but you know, all the mandates have been lifted Obviously vermont is still very much shut down very much restricted And but even last year like last fall last summer Um, you know, if you went into austin or maybe the big box stores or like h eb Which is the big grocery store here You definitely had to wear a mask and somebody might give you crap if you weren't wearing one But you could go pretty much anywhere and people were not wearing masks Uh, you know, you you just okay. We'll we'll you know Do the do the little show and put it on to walk into the restaurant I'm gonna take it off as soon as I get to my table. So it doesn't really matter Like we went out for benjamin's birthday in april. I think we went out on may 1st um when the restaurants reopened to full capacity We went out and The just the way but then like in vermont I had a gathering a political gathering at my house. We were outside People were actually pretty socially distanced Some people were wearing masks if they felt like they needed to like one of our guests Has health issues. So he and his wife were both wearing masks Sure And they were socially distancing and I got screamed at by a lady. She she it was so funny She rode her bike by the cable took her mask off to scream at us You know, so you have these, you know, and they're they're you know Calling the snitch line on their neighbors and all this stuff And people would ask me Why do you think texas is dealing with it so much differently? And this is also keeping in mind driving back and forth twice So we've I've been on a plane We've been at least a dozens of planes over the over the year both of us and then drove Drove to vermont once and then back to texas once during that time And you just see how different people in the south are sure that and then you see how it changes as you head up north And I told people I really think the difference is jesus. Yeah, absolutely. I think people in the south are More comfortable with death sure and You know, I this is totally anecdotal I have no research to back this up or anything like that But I really do think there's something about being a christian Where okay, I'm good with jesus. I have a purpose for my life I know that there is more when I die. I'm not just going to be worm food I've got eternity to go to and so we're okay if I die Like i'm gonna die whenever god wants me i'm gonna die and if it's of covet That's what it is and if it's by a bus tomorrow or falling down the stairs yeah Do you can you speak to that at all? Do you think that's an accurate sort of Hypothesis or am I like way off? Yeah, you know, it's definitely not the southern tea that makes everyone You know, though I do like my southern tea, um, you know, I I think you you know, you've hit something I think you know When you you relate to the south you look at the bible belt You know having lived 21 years in in metropolitan orlando. It's such a melting pot and a meshing pot They've got over 2,000 churches right there in metropolitan orlando and you begin to see All kinds of different walks of life demographics, but yet people are still Kind and loving and warm to one another And I think in different parts of the of the country on you know, I I've spent some time in in many different states around the nation And I kind of agree, you know with what you said and there seems to be a heavier Um, I don't want to say darkness but spirit up here in England that just kind of permeates People's personalities and and conversations and and it's oftentimes difficult to relate to somebody Who hasn't been through and experience what you have in another part of the country? Um, but with that said what a great opportunity to be able to come and and and meet people of of Different backgrounds different heritages, you know brought up and raised differently and be able to reflect Something opposite, you know, there's a there's a certain grocery store. I love to go to Around the area here and and uh That's just one of my mission fields. I go in there and oftentimes they're grumpy and you won't want to have a conversation And you know, I just kind of get you know eye level and we kind of like how are you? How's your day going? You know and whether they don't want to talk or whether they do want I'm going to engage them in conversation. Um, but but I think there are barriers that we have to break through In certain in certain areas of the country and it is definitely more difficult in the new england area Versus the south and and I think when you get through The religion, you know, new england has its religious tendencies Religious, um, you know based on catholicism being very dominant and predominant here in new england And religion is nothing more than conforming to an outer code of conduct And and I think that when when you look at religion and use that term religion It's where we try to conform outwardly and allow our our Um transformation outwardly to affect our internal a relationship with jesus A relationship with jesus changing us from the inside Out so we don't live outwardly inwardly. We live we live inwardly Outwardly, oh my god, that just blew my mind is that yeah, I think as we begin to do that it changes that whole perspective of you know, well the the the south is is You know more kind and more gentle and and well, you know, that's the whole bible belt era You got grandma and grandpa still down there and they've grown up in the church You've got you know, um people from all walks of life and though they may not be Living out their faith every single day. They still have the reverence of of What it means to go to church what it means to Be a believer in this nation what it means to model the morality as a christian Um and and and in an opposing world So I think when you get up into england and you get into the intellectual part of the nation That faith is one of those things where because it's faith And it's not a to z and you can pinpoint a and b and b and c and c and d and and unite everything together We're walking out faith That does not necessarily Answer everybody's intellectual question It's very difficult for some to operate in that space of understanding what it means to be a christian and live out our faith Therefore when you are evangelizing and you're trying to have outreach people can seem very closed off I wonder what it would be like if all of us In our daily interactions My husband and I went through this program called landmark and there's this one exercise that we have to do Where you have to stand in front of another person like really close And just stare into each other's eyes for like five minutes. It's very awkward at first Yeah, but Ever since then I really go out of my way when I'm talking people like you mentioned at the grocery store I'm very intentionally looking at them in their eyes How are you and I really am genuinely asking How's your day? Oh my god, that's such a pretty blouse. Wow. Look at that. All those earrings are so cool You know fill in the blank. Absolutely and and the exercise is is called be with Wow, because you're meant to be with the person. You don't have to say anything You don't have to be doing anything. Just be with them. Yeah, and what that just that presence How much more you can see in people how much more you can read? um Here I know not really hearing because we weren't talking but like Like you can I You can hear so much that's not the right word, but you're just like experiencing them as a human being Yeah, absolutely And what if all of us could just be with the people that we interact on a daily basis? That's right I'm gonna challenge everybody to do that. Look people in the eyes. Um Okay, so we are We are coming close to a good place to close So anybody that's watching if you have a question for pastor Callahan, you need to ask it now Um, I see there's some comments. Let's see I love Olga said I'm not religious, but I truly appreciate this conversation. That's what I'm talking about Like getting to know each other Understanding one another. Absolutely. Oh my god. This is the I've I've said to my husband because he grew up here And he grew up in Colleen, uh, military town. So very multicultural, right? When I I remember the first time I went to a party with my husband Where he invited me to like go meet his friends And it was every nationality basically was represented at that table and It was like I was one of two white people at a table of like 15 and it was like Mexican, porto rican Japanese Korean, you know everything and You know, so he's grown up in a place that's really multicultural and As a result, they got to know and understand one another. Sure They got to understand each other's cultures They got to see what it was like to have a porto rican mom throw her shoe at you like that's a real thing Uh, you know She can attest to that. Okay. Does she throw does she throw shoes at your children? She does not. No Okay. All right. I just curious because I was gonna have to give her crap about it but it's but like Some of these stereotypes are real and it's and it's not meant to be a cut and it's not meant to be hurtful It's cute. Like we're supposed to want to learn about one another. Absolutely. We're supposed to value our differences Scared of offending each other I said I said if we went now that if you wear a shirt or you say something It's now cultural appropriation if you ask where somebody's from it's racist. It's like, well, wait, hold on a second You're now making it so that I'm afraid of you. That's right Because if if you're not a white person now Anything I risk offending you no matter what I say Yeah, absolutely. So why would I then go out of my way to learn about your culture and learn about you and what what makes You unique and special If i'm gonna be punished for it. That's right. Well, you know, I've grown up saying yes, ma'am. No ma'am. Yes, sir No, sir. So now we're at the place in our culture. Where is that going to be? Because I you know, I'm insinuating something saying that when I'm trying to Of course honor and respect to the person I'm talking to And and that's not allowed. Yeah Not allowed I do too. I do too. I'm just I'm not gonna you're not gonna keep me from talking Right It's like are you trying to prevent us from being able to communicate with one another and almost feels like that's what's happening Absolutely, like no you need to be as divided as possible So be as afraid of each other as possible and then just stay in your own little bubble Apart from that's right That's right. You know that that that's you know That's so true It's so true, you know, I we could have been afraid of of what the political kickbacks are going to be by by remaining open during this pandemic and and Standing the way that we did But we we've reached we've received messages from different parts of the country of people who've Heard the story or read read an article or or saw on facebook or what have your instagram That you know, there were things still happening and and are you open? Yeah, we're open because we believe that we've got absolute truth in the word of god that we have to model for this culture If when we were determining how we were going to handle some specific things with with With this whole covet situation We got to a point to where it was if we step over this threshold, we're going to deal possibly with political kickback and repercussions and things like that, but if if we didn't and allow the government to Treat us as a doormat and we became that and we cracked that door It's very difficult to close that door once that door Yep, and so no matter what was said no matter what um type of of Kickbacks were going to happen We had to stand firm on our belief and our our the values that we hold dear If someone else doesn't hold those same values that does not make them a bad person that I you know If someone doesn't hold the same values that I do I don't look at them differently I'm not going to treat them differently. There may be some experiences in life We're probably not going to share together, but I'm not going to look down on them. I'm not going to speak differently I'm not going to you know to say that they're this they're that and label them And I think that we've got to be careful as a culture to make sure that we honor the gift that each and every person is Whether they're saved or whether they believe, you know the same as you do politically Every single one of us were created by god every single one of us have a gift every single one of us have a calling And if god gets a hold of their life, that's going to accelerate that gift and accelerate that calling But we need people to begin to speak into this culture in a way that brings healing in a way that brings Unity in a way that that this political divisiveness that we see in this culture begins to um Be eradicated and eliminated and we understand that that we are human beings We are men and women in the same territory in the same space and we've got to learn to love one another That's why the bible says pray for your enemies love your enemies And we've got to begin to learn to model and reflect god's kingdom Even in the midst of such a crazy political climate where people are at each other's throats We've got to learn to love one another in spite of all one that it's it says uh love each other And love your neighbor as yourself. That's right, you know, we Pete uh shoot how does it go? Um, they will know Who you are by the fruits of What is that like god like people we should be people should be able to differentiate us from everybody else absolutely absolutely We should Be able to and I say this as a person who is in politics and I want to punch everyone in the face all of the time So I'm like preaching to myself right now but like that is Like can you imagine if with all of the ugliness and divisiveness all of us were just like I love you anyway. Yeah I love you. I love you while you spit in my face. Yep Oh Okay Okay, so I want to end on some hope but first first I want to share a little bit about today's sponsor This is me being really awkward because I haven't figured out yet how I want to do sponsorships But we have our first sponsor So I am wearing a necklace by Shannon Bundy Her company her website is called a perihelium.

Sheanna bundy. She's awesome. She makes really pretty stuff Okay, so back to our back to our programming Now before we went uh live pastor calhan. Um, I asked you A question I said have you been seeing More people I'm just curious like have more people been coming into the church with all of this stuff going on You know, absolutely. And and so I wanted you to share a little bit um of hope with our audience with the what you've seen the move of god that you've seen in our community and um the the um Baptizing and stuff. I just was like that is so awesome. So I just love it if you'd share with the audience We had four people get saved sunday at the same time. We had 27 people get baptized. I mean that was incredible Incredible people giving their heart and life to christ people who have Never been baptized at the age ranges were unbelievable and The background stories were incredible And there is a move of god that's happening and I think as we remain true instead fast to that word Remains remain true instead fast to what it is that god is asking each and every one of us to do as believers There will be a move of god that transcends Anything we've ever seen before But we cannot be afraid to use our voice We cannot be afraid to allow our life to model What it is that that we believe in who we are as a christian who we are as believers We cannot allow the political spectrum of this nation to be louder than the kingdom of god We have to position ourselves god has given us this territory The church has for far too long not leveraged the authority. Jesus said i've given you all authority I've given you the keys to the kingdom and we have not even in 2021 We have not learned how to leverage that authority that kingdom authority in the earth And I think we're coming to a point in time. We're coming to a to a to a an awakening in this nation where we are Understanding what it means to leverage that authority in the earth We've got to stand strong and as we do we will see the body of christ grow People who've gone through that church hurt that we were talking about coming back to church People who don't know jesus as their lord and savior coming and being saved and growing In the knowledge of of the word of god And I think we will see signs and wonders and and miracles and healings begin to take place If we will begin to model the kingdom of god and represent that in the earth today There's a mighty move the spirit of god that's coming and there's no political divide that can stop it There is no, uh, there is no mountain that's big enough that will will hinder what god's about to do So I believe we're about to have an awakening. We're seeing it in this church We're seeing it across the nation I just received a phone call the other day from a from a gentleman who's out with shon foight And they're having incredible meetings out in in on the west coast Believe it or not and god is how there's a major awakening that's beginning to happen So anytime you begin to suppress the body of christ you begin to suppress the move of god Get ready because when those doors swing wide open there is going to be a tsunami An incredible wave that's going to hit this culture in this generation And I believe we're standing at the door We're on the threshold of what's going to be the greatest move of god that our generation our modern day generation has ever seen Oh my god, I just got goosebumps. Oh, yeah, hallelujah. Amen. Praise jesus. Yeah all of it Everybody out there should be screaming hallelujah right now Um, I normally will say something to close but that was perfect So i'm not gonna say anything else except see you guys all next week Um, okay, so tell everybody before we go Um, so I did I put the church uh address because people were like, where's this church?

News Words: Litter
Welcome to the Voice of America's News Words. Union Pacific railroad cars in Los Angeles, California are a target of robbers. Litter These packages were on their way to buyers before they were damaged by criminals. The governor of California called the crimes "organized theft." He helped clean up the massive amount of litter from the tracks. Litter is pieces of trash, or waste, left outdoors by humans. It is one kind of pollution. But litter can also mean something lovely. A litter of kittens, for example, are the newborn cats produced from a single pregnancy. Originally published at - https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/6435998.html

Okay, let's go, ready? Here we go. We're live in Silicon Valley for theCUBE here at SNW, the premier storage industry conference. 2000 pre-registrations, there's a lot of walk-ins. It's the authoritative show in storage. Obviously now it's infrastructure, it's cloud, it's everything. I'm John Furrier, my co-host Dave Vellante with a multiple appearance CUBE alumni. Greg Nunes, thank you for coming on. You're now with HP, VP of marketing. What's your official title at HP? Yeah, that works, VP of storage marketing, but you're in storage marketing at HP, the big acquisition. Welcome to theCUBE again. Thanks, yeah, it's great to be here, guys. So HP, lots happening these days. You guys aren't wasting any time, you're not resting investing over there, are you? No, no, there is no time for that. That's when I talked to you, you were like, ah, we're doing sales kickoffs, and we're going crazy, we're flying around the world, so how's that going? Yeah, good, yeah, so strictly speaking from the three-par integration, that was a big focus, just getting everybody up to speed on what we could do for HP's cloud strategy. And that is now fully in motion. We've got our sales guys out there capable of taking that one into our hands. I thought the corporate headquarters last week for a big industry conference there, new CEO showed up, and the M&A guy was there, and he was absolutely totally pumped about the integration of three-par. He said it went smooth, great, you guys hit the ground running, things are in motion, so you guys are about to unleash some things. Can you tell us anything? So in early March, you did some unleashing. So it was really three-par integration, you did some stuff with server and storage, like blade and storage integration, talk about that a little bit. Yeah, sure, so first of all, for everyone tuning in, three-par is HP's lead storage play for the cloud, for the private cloud, the public cloud, hybrid cloud. It is the storage platform. Now, as it relates to that, HP's strategy there, HP's offer is called cloud system, and cloud system really brings all the components to bear, the infrastructure, the orchestration, the portal, the service catalog, if you will. So of course it was important if three-par is that platform, that storage platform for cloud, getting that into that orchestration framework, we call cloud system matrix. And so we have been at it for 98 days, and I'm happy to report that a month ago, we announced the integration of three-par with cloud system matrix, and that is in effect what we're saying is, through matrix, you can not just manage, but provision three-par into your service catalog, your portal for your users to then draw from. The other thing that we got done was the integration of three-par with our iBrix scale-out NAS technology. And what that brings, the iBrix platform is a real multi-tenant approach. In fact, I would tell you, it is the only multi-tenant block-and-file platform in the marketplace, three-par with iBrix. And so that really allows us to kind of take for folks thinking about their own clouds, how to bring block-and-file together and serve that better. Can you clarify that, because wouldn't NetApp claim multi-tenant for their unified storage? So what's different? Yeah, so help us understand that. So multi-tenancy is three things at a high level. Multi-tenancy is scale on a shared platform. Scale, and so that's, I think, love the NetApp guys a lot, but I think we put a fair bit of distance between a dual-controller architecture, kind of where we're at with three-par, multiple-nodes scaling to- Cloud scale. Cloud scale, utility scale. Number two, security. We walk around this show with our phones and our laptops, everything equipped with a virtual private network. We wouldn't think of leaving home without it, but when it comes to your data, we've been slow to respond to our industry. And so what we've built into the platform is a virtual private array capability, which really allows you to administratively lock down your data in this shared infrastructure. The final element to multi-tenancy is not just storage HA, but a resilience so you can maintain the service levels you've committed to without even with a catastrophic failure that might occur. So you're able to keep people up and running, not just accessible to your data, but the business is up and running. And those attributes are all about multi-tenancy and that bringing that to our customers is all about utility. So that's nuanced, but it's important, right? And well, I mean, it's, I don't know why you- I mean, if people can say, well, I'm multi-tenant or I'm multi-tenant, they can maybe have one or two of these attributes. So marketing is way out in front of technologists here. I mean, people are talking multi-tenants. Well, we are at SNW. But be specific on that. What do you mean by the marketing as a head of the technology? You mean the rhetoric around the functionality? Yeah, so, well, is everybody here in, you know, doing cloud? Sure. Okay, is everybody here- 100%. Most people here sell in the same stuff they were selling 15 years ago. A lot of them are. A lot of them are in storage. Yeah, it's true. New brochures. Yeah, new brochures, new names. Marketing always gets to the party first, right? Technology's lags. Sometimes it never gets there, right? And so that's my point. When it comes to multi-tenancy, you can slap a label on it. Do you have the scale to play? Do you have the security? Do you bring that resilience you need to the architecture? Those are, that's a pretty simple question. That's not a new one, either. Okay, fair enough. So the proof points then would be, to me, in the cloud service provider space. Because those are the guys who are going to want this the most. So can you talk about some proof points there? Sure. I mean, first of all, seven of the global top 10 are running the three-part platform. Global top 10 cloud service providers. Cloud service providers are running the three-part platform for their utility offering, okay? So these are guys who've done the due diligence. They understand multi-tenancy. And they live and read it. They are dead without it, right? Remember storage networks, remember loud cloud, remember jam cracker. They got multi-tenancy by physically dedicated silos and infrastructure, broke the bank, right? They're gone, right? Because of that, the right infrastructure wasn't available in a production way back then, and it is now, right? So that's what we're bringing from a storage perspective. Okay, so you got seven out of 10, that's pretty good. That and average, damn good. It's baseball, you're definitely in the hall of fame. Right on, right on. Where's the Red Sox? Ted Williams was the last one in bat 400, and that was, you know, 700. Okay, so that's good. Now, so John was hinting at some other big bang coming. What are you guys doing at the show? Is sort of, are you watching anything here? Is it more, is the big messaging here? Yeah, we are fundamentally talking about, you know, IT as a service and how that's changing strategically the roles of IT, how IT is becoming not just builders, but brokers of services into their organization and how they cope with that. You know, it's this whole hybrid cloud. You know, what does that mean, how do I get there? So let's talk a little bit about HP, right? Sure, guys have been busy in the past year or so. You know, Dave Donatelli came on and all of a sudden you guys, I mean, I guess you had already acquired left hand, right? Prior to Dave coming on, he was sort of had the handcuffs on, right, for a while, he was running networking and servers. But since that time, it was an Ibrics acquisition, obviously the three-part acquisition, the whole, you know, that was a very high visibility. Vertica's now in the roster. Vertica's now in the mix, obviously you got a big data play. And some homegrown IP too in our application strategy, store once, so it's like a great architecture there. Total facelift for HP storage, you still got a pretty vast portfolio, which got a big install base, so you guess you have to have a big portfolio. But talk about that transformation and what it's like going from, you know, a little old three-par, public company, but small, relatively speaking, to big, huge wealth. How do you get the word out, you know, internally, externally, how do you maintain that speed? It's three-par able to bring that kind of ethos to HP. How are you doing that? What are you getting from HP? How's it all working? Yeah, so, God, where do I start? So the, first of all, HP storage is rich with great IP, like you mentioned. I mean, there's no shortage of conversation that one can have, and in fact, the way I describe the experience of going from three-par to HP is all the stuff that we never had, but so desperately coveted is here at HP with open arms. And so, great scale-out file system, right? Great deduplication technology architecture. A wonderful virtualization platform in the left-hand technology. So all of that there, the, I think, part of what we gotta get done is marketing guys, we have a portfolio aimed at optimizing folks' existing environment, getting them to virtualization in the cloud, and then helping folks through this hybrid kind of transformation is kind of getting that word out about all of what has changed with HP storage. It's, if you'd not looked at it for two years, totally different, right? Completely, yeah. Now, David Scott, I always love listening to him speak because he always starts with some tectonic shift or mega-trend, and he's very articulate. And it's the accent. So, I guess, Floor is the same way, right? I mean, just automatically get points, but talk a little bit about some of the big trends that you guys are seeing. David's now the general manager of the storage division, so you're sort of marching to the cadence of his vision, and, of course, Donatelli's convergence vision. Absolutely. But start with some of the things that you guys talked about at three-par, but now it's expanded with the scope with HP. What are some of those mega-trends? So, I think back to how these tectonic shifts, as David calls them, the move from a distributed or kind of traditional data center architecture to a virtualized data center. That tectonic shift kind of stands shoulder to shoulder with this move to call it IT as a service, delivery of IT as a utility service. And in fact, that's driving the move to a virtualized data center. That desire, right? Those two together fundamentally change the underlying requirements for the infrastructure, server storage network. It drives, think about an IT as a service model. You are dead if you cannot deliver swiftly, if you can't deliver speed. Great economics, the cloud is all about more for less. And so we talk about, hey, this agile infrastructure, what's that mean? Provision quickly handle the unpredictable workloads that are streaming in and do all that while you maintain service levels, agile infrastructure. And then to kind of drive those transformational economics, what do you have to do? Well, it's all about driving up utilization. It's not magic, get utilization from 10 or 15% to 80%, and then make it stupidly simple to manage from it. It's all about automation, or what we call autonomic management technology. Joe Tucci calls it autonomic too. Yeah, Joe may have lifted it. It happens to us all the time. People stealing our ideas and we feel compliment. Well, we put it out there. I take it as a compliment and you watch over the next 12 or 18 months autonomic, I bet you NetApp's going to use it next. Yeah, so we now have a gear inside the cube, so it is ours, because we are not creative governments. We have a copyright to this. How about the whole convergence thing, right? I mean, it's not just about storage or just about computer, just about networking. We were at the HPE analyst meeting last month and we heard a heavy dose of convergence. A lot of substance there, we've been, we heard Intel guys say it's the network bottleneck, not compute, it's about networking bottlenecks. Right, the Intel IT guy we had on the cube earlier today, they're big on convergence, right? IT's a service, consumerization of IT, we're going to call it. And so, for years, I mean, I remember when I was at IDC a decade ago and HPE would come in and say, oh, we're a server vendor and servers and storage and there's an affinity and it was sort of, just didn't have a lot of meat behind it, but it feels like it does now. I mean, convergence seems like buying logical blocks of infrastructure to support applications. Seems like it's, because of virtualization, seems like it's finally here. Yeah, well, so think about, back to our IT as a service conversation, think about the, you know, it's the death for IT as a service. Death comes from complexity and, you know, inefficiency, right? IT as a service does not get off the ground with that. What drives that? Sprawl drives that. And look at the kind of growth people are seeing in their server virtualization environments in, with not just compute, but the storage side, the network side. Sprawl in general? Anything that would make network sprawl, server sprawl? All of it. All of it. I mean, start with a VM and try to do it without more storage capacity and pretty soon more network resource. And so the antidote to that complexity is data center convergence. Converge infrastructure for your server storage and networking gear, right? So, you know, if you can get the job done in one thing versus 30, doesn't that help you get there? And in fact, we had an announcement, March 1st, we introduced an exchange appliance with our partners over at Microsoft. And that did exactly that. That brought 30 SKUs, 30 components, and drove that into a single appliance that was faster to get up and running, cheaper to power and cool, and in one appliance, storage, server, network, and application, all in one, right? It's kind of interesting. We live in this, the IT business has really changed a lot the whole, you know, we're talking about convergence, but there's been a lot of consolidation as well. You get a very strong partnership with Microsoft who's invested, I think, a quarter of a billion dollars in this whole appliance initiative. HP and SAP are, you know, renowned. HP and Oracle used to be that way, and that sort of chilled out a little bit. And now, you guys just bought Vertica. So you see this really interesting co-opetition thing. You see it with VMware, you hear it, EMC talks about it all the time. You know, what do you see there? How do you see that all going? More of the same, or does it just get more intense? Yeah, no, I think so. The customer data center is a mix of technologies. It's an ecosystem, right? And for us to get the job done for our customers is to, you know, partner where we need to. And in fact, I'll give you a great example. One of the ways we talk to people about how they get to kind of their private cloud is, you know, they should be asking us, give me the template for me to get my Microsoft implementation for SQL. Done is a cloud service, right? And so what they ought to get, what they get from us is, you know, white papers and implementation guides and deployment scripts. We've done this before. Yeah, exactly, and it's a methodology. It's repeatable, we call them cloud maps. You know, you ought to have a cloud map for each one of these things. And the best way to get that is to drive us to work with those ISV partners, with VMware, with Microsoft, with SAP, with all those guys. And so, I mean, that's the name of the game. And if you think you can do it all yourself, you know, take a look at the data center. Yeah, it's tough. How is the IT service economy as you're talking about affecting the partnership and the channel strategies? Because, you know, there are other approaches out there that are in the industry that are kind of old school, controlling the pricing and the lock and all that stuff going on. You guys have always had a great channel. You have the convergence portfolio with network servers and storage. And so, obviously things aren't getting simpler, at least from a solution standpoint. You guys are doing some simplification. Right, so what's the channel, what's the market in the field experiencing? Can you talk about the trend there? Yeah, so I mean, I don't know if I'd call it the trend, but so long as you can, you know, ID the customer problem and give an easy answer for your partner, give them a way to, you know, provide the customer a few simple options. And whether it's, you know, whether it's, you know, a DAZ-based approach for their Microsoft Exchange deployment versus a SAN. A few in our industry can do that. But, you know, very simple answers to their problems, solutions for their backup issues, whatever. You get that done. Their sales cycles are quicker, their customers are happier, and that breeds a wonderful relationship with our partners. The other thing that is important is how we bring our partners into our cloud system strategy, right? And how we, you know, can link with them arm in arm to deliver cloud computing into our customers. And again, they are, there are brothers and sisters there. So, you know, bringing them along for the ride, big part of it. How about data protection? I've been pretty vocal about how the state of backup is just completely broken. I mean, backup's insurance, right? You're buying insurance policy and nobody wants to overpay for insurance and that's what people do. But you were just saying earlier, what does backup mean, right? Is it primary data? Well, so. You're having a conversation with the electronics. Yeah, so, but backup is complicated, right? It's overpriced. And if I want to extend it to remote offices or even my desktops and laptops, it gets even more expensive. And essentially, you know, you got the software vendors extracting, you know, the rents, we know that story. It's horrible, yeah. That's the word that we've been hearing. Symantec is, but that's the way it is. I mean, people are, you know, they have that infrastructure installed, but virtualization is kind of changing that. It's forcing people to re-look at their backup. You've got this new technology store once, now it's not software technology. Of course, you've got data protector. It is software. And that fits in there. I know, but it is, but it's, well actually, it's, but store once is, it's not a backup application, right? Or would you consider it a backup application? I think it has a relationship to the backup application you're writing. Right, so I'm going to work with Symantec or Network or HP Data Protector or something like that. Okay, so, but the state of backup is a mess, right? And there's a big opportunity here to break down some of those silos. So what is HP doing in that whole space? How are you guys going to make that happen and really put your mark in backup? Yeah, as you appear to be doing, certainly in networking, right? And you've always been very strong in servers and it looks like you're really well positioned in storage now and generally, but how about backup specific? So let's talk about store once. So in June, 2010, we introduced data deduplication architecture. We label store once. And the unique thing about what we're doing here in data deduplication is this is an architecture not just for inline deduplication for backup, but is an architecture that can live on the backup client that is capable of living in primary storage. And the benefit of one architecture across your environment is ultimately you're able to move your data around without having to rehydrate it every time you make a move. That vision is, we're probably not the only ones who have ever recited it, but I think we are the only ones who can make it a reality. By virtue of the technology, that is an architecture that can do those things. Now that came out of HP Labs, right? So it was homegrown. Yeah, yeah. And where we're at today, we have a terrific lineup of inline data deduplication appliances that can get the job done faster, lower total cost of ownership, take a lot of the headache out of deployment and management of those backups. That's a big deal. The next step for us is to take that architecture to the backup client and begin to deliver on that vision that we've talked about. So that is- Okay, so right now you're taking data domain head on essentially, right? And that's a game of bigger, better, faster, better mouse trap. But you're saying, if I understand it correctly, the leverage that you have is that architecturally you can place that on primary as well? Architecturally we can place that on primary. Is that the plan, or can you talk about that a little bit? That is the plan. For this architecture, we need to get it in the entire environment. And to be honest, our, so we have engineers working away at this stuff. Our challenge at the moment is not one of technology. It's one of sales and marketing. It's getting at bats. It's getting into those opportunities to compete and show what we can do because if you are looking at a refresh of your backup environment, guess what? If you refresh that with HP today and tomorrow HP rolls out the duplication on the backup client, guess what? You know, what you got today is going to serve you even better in the future. Not just in line. Well, and of course Data Domain did a really good job about the whole tape sucks theme. And then we were talking to Varun today from Nimble Storage about really, not only does tapes suck, backup sucks. You know, so well, I mean it really does. You know, so that's something backup is broken. And I think that, and I think the fix is data protection as a service. And when you're talking about, service-oriented architectures or IT as a service and the whole, you talk about the three-par utility storage, I mean that is ultimately where this business is going. I think you got a great opportunity there. And I hope you can pull it off because I'd love to see that vision come through. You're right, you're not the first place I've ever heard that vision, but you hear it from places that have a lot of different still places. No, it's an execution. You got to execute on it. I mean the thing is you got to get it out there and go and do the frontal and do the head-to-heads and do the marketing and brute force here and some good marketing, change the game on the competition. And Donatelli brings that execution ethos. What's it like working for Dave? Not that you work directly for him. Dave Donatelli is the reason I'm at HP. I got to tell you. Because in the good old days at three-par, you know, I lost more than one deal because Dave Donatelli made that last sales call. The man, you know. He makes sales calls. He likes calling. Yes, he does indeed. So that's a leader. It leads from the front, absolutely. That's the way to do it. So you respect that. I mean he's a task master, right? I mean that's his reputation. He doesn't, you know. Call it in business. Call it what you want. Execution, baby. He really focuses on getting the job done. He doesn't make excuses. Yes. But you're saying that he walks the walk. He does. And that's got to have a ripple effect on the people. Well, and the idea of this converge infrastructure, right? The idea that server storage and networking guys are going to innovate side by side and leverage each other's work to make a better product. Easy to say in a sentence. Hard to do. Try to do it with thousands of engineers. Well, I talk to, you know, CIO like customers all the time through our theCUBE and blogging. And converge networking is here finally, you know. And the convergence in the nirvana we were talking about years ago. And you guys are well positioned. You guys have good marks from customers in terms of, you know, this is not just a Cisco thing anymore. This is HP is a player and has a track record in networking, in storage, and now a three-part kind of modernizing some of the cloud stuff. And they've had servers for years. I mean, even when I work there. So HP actually has the right stuff at the right time. But storage was always a second-class citizen in HP as it was, it still is my opinion, by the way, at IBM. It certainly was that case at SON, right? It was, these were server companies. And they say, yeah, yeah, storage. Well, it's more strategic now in terms of like, we're hearing here about performance, we're seeing flash. But storage, storage software, a lot of innovations around flash, things like that. And I would say that HP's made that transformation just from an ideological standpoint. You're not just a server company. ESSN, and you're not just a storage company, by the way. Even though you're run by a guy with a big storage background. I mean, you, that converged infrastructure message really hit in the face, you know, when you talk to HP. And it's not just about talking it, right? I mean, March 1st was all about, you know, converged infrastructure with the exchange appliance, the 5000, converged infrastructure with the P4800 left-hand, right? C-class blade system chassis, C-class blades, ProLiant blades along with P-4000 left-hand controllers in one chassis, right? Yeah. And so the cool thing to me is that Antibiotica on top of it with the new app versions, I think that's going to be just a game changer. You guys can get that integrated across. I know, you know, we asked Dave specifically about big data at Barcelona, there's all this, you know, softwares at this, but I think if you guys can harness the analytics side of it, that amplifies the value proposition. Can you clarify, where does Vertica sit in the organization? I- Software initially, right? I mean, probably would be the wrong one to talk about. Yeah, okay, so that's it. It came from the software side, but in talking to some of the insides at HP that talked publicly is that Vertica's going to be their VMware to EMC. Well, so, but that makes sense. So, you know, there's this interesting battle. You had VCE on the one side taking a, you know, their partnership approach and you got HP's, you know, approach through vertical integration. And of course, HP doesn't own the hypervisor, so HP's, you know, playing an open heterogeneous hand. Choice, right? Yeah. Versus locking. Well, it's interesting, right? I mean, so- Interesting implicit locking. Well, but no, it is. I mean, basically- Total solution locking. And you know what? And VCE will tell you, look, this is the block. And if you don't want, you know, that management software, then go somewhere else. But this is the block, right? Whereas HP's saying, well, we have more choice. And I think that's an interesting battle. See, to me, it's VCE and HP. And then there really isn't anybody else. I mean, Oracle's kind of got it. You know, the Oracle's just trying to sell their whole stack. And IBM really is not playing here. And who else is there? So it's a really interesting battle. And I think that's going to be a huge market. Multi-billions of dollars in blocks of infrastructure going in. And it's right now, it's a two-horse race. And you guys, I think, are very well-positioned. I mean, I think both companies, different philosophies, but I think- Totally different. Both companies can make a lot of money there. Yeah. So here's the approach. Make it totally simple, right? Sometimes choice can be, you know, red as complexity after, you know, after model stuff, I have to figure it out myself. Sort of for me. So make it totally simple. Get a cloud system, right? Once you've done, there you go. But for a lot of folks, you know, kind of one-size-done-fit-all, give me, you know, there's a lot of folks out there who are going to virtualize in different ways. There's a lot of folks out there who are going to run different kinds of databases. You know, for those guys, we still have the best infrastructure at every level. And that's kind of where we're aiming, right? So why wouldn't you take an open approach? I mean- You can simplify it. You can simplify it and increase utilization and provide speed, economics, and scale. Yeah. Well, I think, by the way, I think the answer to that question is that if you're three separate companies, it's hard enough as it is to do that level of integration. So you really have to sort of limit the flexibility. By the way, talk to some of the large cloud service providers. They have premium clouds running VMware, but then they have, you know, kind of the lower-end offers built on totally different hypervisor technology. What do you do? The cloud service providers tell us a lot. Don't tell us how to do what we want to do. Enable us. Give us the infrastructure. A lot of them want to build their own files. And they've got Citrix, too. It's not just Citrix and VMware. It's Citrix and VMware and other issues. So they don't really care about hypervisor. I'm hearing, but- No, I think that's right, John. And I think that- Like I say, to me, it's Republicans and Democrats. I don't know which one you guys want to see. I mean, Citrix was owned in California, so I guess you can be- I prefer to think of it as Yankees and Red Sox. That's it. It's renaissance. Great, we would go there. Big and bigger. Where's Oracle been in that equation? And they're not even playing baseball. That's an American football. What did somebody say the other day that Oracle has become in the North Korea of the IT? Industry, yeah. We love Oracle. I could be jailed soon. I'll tell. So, OK, so that's good. I mean, we're talking about the transformation of HP. We're at Craig Nunez of HP, formerly three-part VP marketing now at HP. Inside the Cube here at SNW with Dave Vellante. I've had a great conversation. Thanks so much. Yeah, anything else? We have time, yeah. What are you seeing here? I mean, a lot of- You guys have time? Is everybody talking cloud? A whole lot of conversations about cloud. DDoop's a pretty hot topic, as you'd imagine. And I haven't had a chance to run through the Expo and see what everybody's, you know, strutting. No, I haven't. I can't write to the Cube. I think the people are in there now. Oh, it's a good time to be in there, actually. Yeah, right on. Now's the time to go. All right. Well, thanks, Craig, for coming on board. Appreciate it. Always a pleasure for the 10th time. Good luck with everything. We'll be watching. We're going to be at HP Discover. We should tell people, right? We're going to be at HP Discover in June. So looking forward to that. Yep. The Cube at 10 Vegas. 10,000 strong in Vegas. 10,000 strong? Well, we'll be broadcasting. HP Discover, we'll be there with the Cube. A lot of gasses, and we'll hear more and more from HP. Looking forward to it. Right on. And we'll see you in Vegas. See you next time. All right. Stay tuned. All right. Bye, guys. All right. That's great.

So, the calcide foot is going to be whichever foot is closest to the cow at the time. Today we're going to work the flag, so right now if I said her calcide foot, that's going to be my right leg. And we're going to talk a little bit about maybe what it's for, when somebody would tell you to use it, and how it can help you. Okay, so what about the herd side foot? Now the herd side foot, like I said, today we're working the flag, so this is going to be the herd side foot. Today is going to be the left, the herd is going to be back here and we're working the flag on our right, so this left leg is going to be herd side. So, Taren, can you work the flag and demonstrate while when you use the cow side foot and why you use it, and then you'll use the herd side foot. Just give a demonstration of how it can affect the cow and the horse. Right now, my right leg is herd side, I can use it right there, I can use it for a couple different reasons. Typically, when I use herd side, I'm going to try and hold my horse up, which means if we were coming across here and they fall away like so, I'm going to put my herd side on her and try and drive her up here, try and push her right out here, same deal coming this way if she was to fall off, so I'm going to put my left leg on her or herd side and drive her right back up here to where she needs to be, keep a hold to the cow. Now, if she comes out of there and she's leaning on the cow here, I'm going to put my cow side leg on her and drive her away from it.

What makes for excellence in heart care? It starts with one of the most amazing teams of heart surgeons and cardiologists that I've seen assembled under one roof and the region's leading technology in a new $40 million facility. This is the nationally recognized Heart and Vascular Institute of Eastern Kentucky at Pikeville Medical Center. Pickleball, a sport similar to tennis, is gaining popularity all over the country and Pikeville is no exception. New data came out a few weeks ago that pegged the number of players in the country at 36 and a half million, which, if true, would make pickleball larger than golf, larger than tennis, larger than basketball. So it's grown pretty unbelievably. And what we're seeing is just influx of new sports fields, new proposals to the city to add court to the public rec centers and facilities and really more demand than supply right now. So it's pretty unbelievable what we've seen and the popularity that just keeps growing. Pikeville already has several courts where those interested can go to play the sport. The great thing about pickleball is you can you can fit a lot of people on a limited amount of space. You know, if you're playing tennis, there's typically two people. They're playing ADT Depart on a tennis court with pickleball. You can fit four pickleball courts on one tennis court and pickleball you typically play as doubles. You can actually have 16 people playing on that same tennis court. And so what you find is it's just a lot of times much better use of public space, gets more people out there. And then of course when you have 16 people playing on a small space, there's just more opportunity for socialization. And so a lot of people use it as a social outlet as warmer weather's approach. Many children, teens, young adults and even older adults will be looking for activities to engage in. For more information about pickleball and where to play in Pikeville, you can visit pickleheads.com. For mountaintop news, I'm Kelsey Dean.

I recently moved from California and I was looking for a home church and through my job I got to meet someone that came to this church and I went to Instagram and I saw a couple videos and I decided to give it a chance so I came in. Before coming I went on a vacation with my mother and in that vacation my mom showed me a video where she said that she was going through some things and she let one of her close cousins know what was going on with her and so they spoke two days later my mom's cousin called my mom and said that she did something for her and that she didn't have to worry that she paid and everything and what she did was were from Guatemala so she called someone in Guatemala and they went up in a mountain and created this fire and he was making points in the fire and my mom showed me this video and ever since that day and he mentioned God like when he was doing this cleaning and it just didn't feel right something inside me didn't feel right and after seeing that video I was like inside of me I didn't have peace and I knew that video wasn't something good so I went ahead and figure out what was going on so usually in the mornings I pray and I listen to my gospel music and ever since I saw that video I just didn't want to do it I didn't want to pray I didn't want to listen to my gospel music I felt like that wasn't normal of me so I figured that since I had that man's voice and the video in my head that that's where it was coming from since he mentioned God in the video I didn't think there was anything of it but since I kept thinking about it I went ahead and one of my friends from California I gave her pictures of my family so that she can send it to Prophet Lovie so that he can pray over me and I can get the I guess deliverance that I was looking for from afar but God is so good that on Sunday I came here and he did it here I was in the back on this side way to the back when Pastor Vlad said he was the service was over and he was just gonna pray so we can go and enjoy our Sunday and when I was back there he did something different from the other three that I remember usually he prays for like healing and family but this time he specifically said witchcraft and when he said witchcraft I you know I was praying I was like God whoever has witchcraft in here heal them I rebuke it and then out of nowhere I started feeling really really hot in my feet and a demon that entered through any soul ties any abuse or any hurt to live right now in Jesus mighty name in the name of Jesus in the mighty name of Jesus Christ who are you who are you stop who are you tormenting her body what have you done to her what have you done to her in the mighty name of Jesus Christ Holy Ghost fire all over your body right now speak up your unclean spirit what have you done to her witchcraft and in my stomach and I felt tingly like ants were walking on me on my stomach and on my feet and I I started gasping for air like faster and faster and then I knew something was happening and I just surrendered I just let God take over what was happening is like I had no control over it it's just it just happened I don't know how to explain it but I let I allowed it too because I knew that that's that's what I needed and that's what was bothering me inside be free in the name of Jesus every trace of darkness leave her right now in Jesus name Holy Spirit let your light come I knew there was darkness there's anything that's not of you Lord God be exposed and expelled Jesus name I declare you free in Jesus name amen amen rise up rise up hey what is your name huh what is your name your name is not witchcraft so I want you to see that the person that I was talking to is not the person that's talking to right now and then after that I felt so good I felt happy peace I felt like I could jump just really high I I felt so great I felt really really good thank God come on let's give God some glory in this place amen

The Effect of COVID-19 on our Communities - Fr. Michel Francois
Parish Priest of Gros Islet, Fr. Michel Francis, advises the public to maintain standards and follow protocols to protect ourselves, and others. A message from the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice and Empowerment.

Fellow Senators, my name is Father Mitchell Francis, Parish Priest of Grosillais. For the purpose of this production, I will remove my mask. For the past 18 months, a new word has entered everybody's vocabulary. And that word is protocol, or protocols. So everybody knows that word. It's not a new word, but it has become everybody's word, has become part of our vocabulary. And what the word protocol means, basically, is courtesy. Just imagine if we decided to change the courtesy in the manner in which we drive. So for example, we drive on the left-hand side. Supposing some people, some drivers, were to say, well, I prefer to drive on the right-hand side, because that's what I'm used to doing when I was in North America or in Europe. Or to decide not to stop on the red light, but to proceed on the red light and stop on the green light instead. Could you imagine this change of protocol or courtesy being extended to other drivers? Could you imagine the chaos, the shared chaos that it could cause? So I'm using this analogy to help us understand what it is that we talk about regarding protocols for COVID-19. So basic things, wearing the mask. And we have been told why the mask is important to be worn. We've been told about sanitizing our hands or washing our hands regularly. Or keeping the social distance of six feet to protect ourselves and to protect other people. So these are the protocols we're talking about. And these are there to help us in our society and for us to get back to our state of normalcy. COVID has affected everybody and no doubt it has affected us as church. So for the past five Sundays, we have been on lockdown, which means to say that our people only have access to church on a Saturday afternoon. And for the past four Saturdays, mass was at two o'clock, a very inconvenient for many people. And those who tried to come, they even got there late because the traffic was horrible. And thank God for the technology we've been able to live stream so that we are able to reach the people who cannot access. And just by following those protocols of wearing our masks and wearing them well to make sure that our nose, our mouth and our chin, they are covered. By making sure we sanitize our hands regularly or wash them regularly with open water for good 20 seconds and to social distance six feet apart from other people. This is going to take us back to a state of normalcy. So fellow solutions, let me make the appeal, please. Follow the protocols and remember always wear your mask.

So we've talked about how to calculate energy and heat and work changes when we heat a system specifically at ideal gas at constant volume. Let's also consider the case where we do the heating at constant pressure. So let's consider exactly the same problem as we had before. We've got one mole of an ideal gas initially at a pressure of one atmosphere and a temperature of 298 Kelvin, which makes it occupy 24.5 liters. Once again we're going to increase the temperature by 50 Kelvin, but now we're going to do it isobarically at constant pressure. So initial pressure and final pressure are going to be the same value. We're not going to allow the pressure to change, and what that means is the volume is going to have to increase. If I have a box of gas at constant pressure and I heat it up, its volume will increase. It'll expand as I increase its temperature. So that's going to increase the volume to some new final volume. We can calculate what that final volume should be using the ideal gas law, of course. P equals nRT, so V2 is equal to nRT over P. So if I know my final temperature and final pressure, this is going to be one mole of a gas. Gas constant is 8.314 joules per mole Kelvin. I'm still multiplying in the numerator by 298 Kelvin, and I divide that by, I'm sorry, not 298 Kelvin. The final temperature is 348 Kelvin, and divide by the final pressure, which is the same as the initial pressure, which is one atmosphere. And now I realize it's a good thing that I was going to double check my units because my units are not working out. So rather than using the gas constant in units of joules per mole Kelvin, I need to cancel some units of atmospheres. So I'm going to instead use the gas constant as 0.08206 liter atmospheres per mole Kelvin. And then when I check my units, moles will cancel moles, Kelvin will cancel Kelvin, atmospheres will cancel atmospheres, and my answer will come out in units of liters. So plug these numbers into a calculator, which I've already done, and the answer works out to be 28.6 liters. So as expected, the volume of our ideal gas increases. As I heat it from room temperature of 298 Kelvin up to 50 Kelvin hotter, the volume increases by the same ratio, 24.5 up to 28.6 liters. So now we're ready to start calculating properties like the change in the internal energy and the heat and the work. Internal energy, that's exactly the same as it was before. Remember, energy is a state function, so it doesn't matter whether I took a constant pressure or constant volume path, the amount by which I changed the temperature is all I need to know to calculate the change in the energy. So 3 halves nr delta t is the same thing as it was previously. If I plug numbers into this expression with one mole and the gas constant, that's going to work out to the same 620 joules that it was for the isochoric process. So so far everything is the same for delta u, isochoric or isobaric doesn't matter for an ideal gas. If I calculate work, on the other hand, for the constant volume process, the work turned out to be zero because we weren't changing the volume, we weren't doing any PV work. In this case, we are changing the volume, so we do have to calculate something to calculate the PV work. So if we go back to our definition of PV work, negative integral of P external dv, P is constant. We're doing this under constant pressure, so the pressure we can pull out of the integral dv integrates to just delta v. So because it's a constant pressure process, I can use minus P external delta v. The pressure is 1 atmosphere. The change in volume is 24.5 up to 28.6 liters, so 28.6 minus 24.5 v2 minus v1. So that change of 4.1 liters multiplied by an atmosphere gives me a total of negative 4.1 liter atmospheres. So that's correct, it's not wrong. Liter atmospheres is kind of an inconvenient unit to express work in, so let's change liter atmospheres to joules. There's 101 joules per liter atmosphere, or if we prefer 8.314 joules for every .08206 liter atmospheres. So that unit conversion, pretty close to 100, it's a little over 100, so it works out to be negative 420 joules is the amount of PV work that gets done. So notice what's happening. I've got my box of gas by keeping the pressure constant as I increase it from T1 to T2, the volume increases from v1 to v2. In the process of changing the volume it has to do some work. The system does some work by expanding, so the work has a negative sign and it does 420 joules worth of work in pushing back the lid of the container or the walls of the container. So notice that that's pretty significant, it's almost as big as the size of delta u and that now allows us to calculate the heat. First law tells us the heat is delta u minus the PV work and we've calculated both of those. The change in the internal energy is 620 joules, the work is negative 420 joules, so I'm subtracting negative 420 joules, so the net result is over a kilojoule, 1,040 joules in this case. So let's make sure we understand what those quantities mean. I've increased the temperature of the gas, I've increased the kinetic energy of the gas, that's the form of energy that gases have, so the internal energy of the gas increased because of that temperature increase. So 620 joules worth of energy went into raising the temperature of the gas. In the process of heating it up it expanded, did some PV work, did work on the surrounding so that's a negative value of w. The reason q is this large number of 1,040 joules is if we're thinking about how much energy had to enter or leave the system, I had to put enough energy into this system to pay not only to heat up the gas to make its kinetic energy increase, but also to pay for the work of pushing back against the atmosphere and expanding the volume of the container. So the total amount of energy I had to put into the gas in the form of heat is the 620 joules it took to raise the temperature as well as the 420 additional joules it took to expand the container. So a total of 1,040 joules worth of energy in the form of heat was supplied into the system to pay for energy and work. So a few things to notice about this. Number one it's not as convenient to do heating at constant pressure because we don't have the convenience of being able to say work is zero. Isochoric processes, constant volume processes because the volume doesn't change the work calculation is very simple. So that also ends up complicating the heat. Heat has to pay for the PV work which is non-zero. So because of that inconvenience of having to deal with PV work which is really sort of a hassle, the next thing we'll do is define a new quantity that lets us not have to worry so much about PV work. So that's what we'll consider next.

Welcome back everyone to another episode of Let's Play Dragon Quest on Nintendo Switch. Last episode we explored a big cave and got lots of good loot and we also got the new harp that the sage wanted. And we learned a secret, but the thing is we need a key in order to find the secret. So apparently hidden somewhere in the castle. Hidden somewhere in the castle is another one of the sages. So what we're going to do is use this money wisely to buy lots of good stuff and we're going to become stronger with our equipment. So we're going to head off to town to the nearby town. Anyway, we're not buying weapons from this guy, we're just selling, all we're doing is selling stuff. So let's see, I'm going to sell him, what am I going to sell him? Iron shield I already have, so I could just sell him that. All right, let me check, put a sworn I had more stuff that I found in that cave, I guess not though that's that's enough money I have right now. So we're going to head on over to the town of keys and we're not going to lose our keys this time like we did last time foolishly. All right, let's head on over, ghost appears he's done for, we also got a lot stronger by going to that cave. Ah, yes, the map makes the game much easier. Yeah, we're just not. Oh, it's just not going to work. We got to go to we got to go across the bridge. Built the battles need to be a bit quicker. That's one of my main complaints about this is just a little slow. The fact that there's a pause before and after you go into a battle or a ghosty, you're done. All right, so we're going to head down to this town. If I don't get killed first and there's no medicinal herbs or actually. I might as well do that. Yeah, I have to heal spell now. Yeah, you learn a lot of spells as you level up in this game. Just keep going down straight down and I didn't run to anybody at all. All right, it's not too bad. So we need to go where rain and sun meet. That's what a lot of people have been telling us. What does that mean, though? I think we'll find out soon. Apparently there's some sort of sun in the basement of the castle. OK, close. There's the town. It's around the mountain range. This is always a tough place to get to before. It's a lot easier now, though. Like I didn't run a single person. Hello, Rimmeldaar. Ah, yes. There's a shrine north of us is coal. All right, let's check out what he's got. Oh, that'll make me so tough. And that'll make me tough, too. And that'll make me really tough. And that'll make me super tough. I can afford both of these. So we're going to get a steel broadsword, a squizzed article. I'm going to equip it. And now I'm going to sell the old sword I had. OK, I'm going to buy now. I'm going to buy the iron armor and I'm going to equip it. Or anything else, sell the chain mail, sell that. I'm going to need the money for those keys. All right, let's look around a little more. We need to go get those keys. That's obvious. So the key shop is around here. You want to buy as many keys as you possibly can because they get destroyed every time you use them. It's not like Dragon Quest 2 where you have one key and it just works. You have to buy keys. You have to buy one, buy one another, buy another, another. I keep just buying them. Oh, he's not allowed to sell me that many keys. It's like one of those shops where you can only buy like two of an item because it's like it's a limited quantity. I'll buy all the keys this guy has. Now let's see. I should buy some medicinal herbs from this dude right here. I'm going to buy one of those. Just keep pressing A, press it again, press it again. You can't you can never have too many of these. I'll buy one of these wings. Just in case of emergencies. I don't have Zoom yet. How many do I have? I can just keep buying medicinal herbs until I'm all out. All right, it would be better if you could like say, hey, can you give me 10 instead of saying, oh, can I buy another? Can I buy another? Can I buy another? But I get like it's annoying. Oh, I can't carry you any more than that. I can only carry six at a time. That's stupid. All right, we're going to rest up. Yeah, sure, might as well have. I got to get rid of some money anyway. All right, we want to go south now. You spend all your money that way. If you get killed by the monsters, you don't really lose anything. All right, we're going south for the winter of Boware Wolf. Oh, I'm a lot tougher now. Oh, I see that I am tougher now. I think I'll be fine. Actually, I should probably heal. No reason not to stay. Stay healed. Oh, look at that to shrine. That's what I've been looking for. Oh, Scare Wolf. Oh, I beat him. Nice. I'm getting a lot tougher and I leveled up. The armor makes a difference. Glow, I'm guessing glow probably illuminates caves. That'll come in handy. All right. Oh, this. That must be him. If thou are the blood of Erdric, the one Trier, you must possess proof. Be gone. Hey, that was a nice of him. He's kicked me out. Yeah, he doesn't let you take take the item until you prove that you're Erdric's descendant. All right, so there's nothing on this content for us right now because we don't have proof that we are Erdric's descendant. So what we should do is. We should toss a wing in the air. Head over to the castle and investigate that a little more. So we are not the castle. You're at the castle. What you want to do is open this and then investigate around. I was told that Castle Dungeon was around here somewhere. Where's the Castle Dungeon? He's healing me. Where the heck was the Castle Dungeon again? I can't remember at all. Look, let me think. Where could it possibly be? I know there's a dungeon down here somewhere. I can't be wasting my keys either. Come on. Where the heck is it? What does this guy have to say? Maybe it's around the corner. There's no way it's hidden. Oh, look at that. Oh, well, look at that. Would you look at that? Yes, I am. He knows that I'm the descendant of Erdric and I will visit him. The holy sunstone of thank you. It's my birthright he said he's going to give me. So when rain and sun meet, he's going to sleep now? Well, I guess he's been standing there for a while waiting for me, huh? That's pretty cool. Seed of life. Additional herb. I can't care anymore. So I'll just leave it there. All right, Seed of life. Using that. Oh, I forgot I need to get more keys. That guy. Do I have any money? I have 200 gold. You don't want to run out of freaking keys because if you run out of keys, then you have to go all the way back to that place. Yes, I want a key. Give me another or a hiss. All right, so I have six keys, six of that. Now, where do we go now? Now, check in the map. There's only one place we can go. To the west. We're going to move westward and then south. Hopefully we can make it. Yeah, I think this is a good idea. Oh, a slime. These don't match for me. Okay, so now that we have all this good stuff, we have the Sun Stone, we have the Stony Stone. All right, here we go. There's the bridge. We just head south. Yeah, these guys are in no match for me now. They were tough before, but now I'm destroying them with my new broadsword, my iron armor. Getting money from that cave was a good idea. You buy good equipment. You can beat old baddies, Dracolite, and he got killed in one hit also. Nice. So I have two of the three items I need. I think we're off to a good start right now. So let's see. The map. Ah, where am I? Okay. Okay, you notice how the map cursor is really small, but in Dragon Quest 2, for the switch, it's like gigantic and it covers up like half the map of the area. They really botched that in the second game, I think. You cannot tell where the heck you are. Skilled the scrapper. Hopefully I can beat him. He's tough, but it's no match for me. I'm tougher. You guys stay away from the mountain rangers because they will always be tough. Oh, look out. Town. Thank you. Okay, now we're going to leave because this is a destroyed ruined town full of really powerful monsters and I do not want to get killed. So we're going to move and make a run for it because this is our tough area. If I could so tough, I should probably be healing right now. This is the point where you're supposed to be running. So the original one is harder because you didn't have a map. You can either go above that bridge up there or you can go below the land bridge. You go on the bridge on top top is a dead end and it will screw you over entirely. Actually, no, you want to go to the bridge up top, I think. Let me look. No, no. It's a dead end completely, actually. I'm looking at it. It's completely is completely a dead end. You do not want to go there. That's a trap. You want to go down here. This is where you want to go. Oh, oh, I'm out of slime. Oh, come on. That was so close. Dark skeleton tough. This is why you want to, this is why you want to run and then I tell you it was hard. Okay. So it's really tough. You need to run from those guys. That's the thing. No. Can't continue. I'm not saving after getting killed by that guy. Let's move. Let's move. I need to buy holy water. I need some of that water. Where is the item shop or actually the holy water? They sell it here. Right? Yep. I want one. I want one. Am I seriously all out of room and only carry so much in this game? I shouldn't have picked up the Sun Stone. That was stupid of me. Wait, is there a bank around here? Please tell me there's a bank around here that I can drop my stuff off at. Maybe it's... Is she the bank? Okay. So I'm going to deposit items. Okay. I'm going to give you the staff of rain. Okay. I'm going to use Sun Stone. Maybe I should give her the keys or that should be enough. We're going to grab some more of that water and then we'll be off. Okay. That should be good now. We're going to head off now and as soon as we get down to a certain point we will use that holy water to ward off all the monsters. It might not even work. You got to get really lucky. You got to get lucky. You got to run, run, run. That's what you got to do. Because you are not going to be tough enough to fight these guys. That's a little shortcut. You don't have to go all the way around. All right. Drag the light. Time to die. These guys are just easy. Those dark skeletons though, they're no joke. You don't want to mess around with them. They will kill you. These guys are super easy though. Okay. Okay. Almost down there. I'm running to so many guys. All right. We go down around the corner, around here. Gelton scrapper. I don't think I'll be fine unless, crap, I don't mean to do that. Okay. Okay. Holy water has been sprinkled away. Okay. Okay. Thank you. You flee. You flee. You flee. That's all you do. Okay. Metal slime, of course. Oh no. I'm using holy water again. Okay. Nice. We escaped. These guys all are tough. You got to run from all of them. Okay. Let's see how close we are. We are very close. But what you want to do is go up this mountain naturally. Taking this bridge is a trap. Okay. Successful escape once again. And nice. We're almost there. Flee. Flee. That is so annoying. This is really, really annoying. Okay. Okay. I'm going to keep going. I'm going to keep going. We're going to try this again. You don't understand how irritating it is for this to happen. It's tough. It's not easy getting to cantaline. It's really hard getting to cantaline because you're just not going to be tough enough to defeat these guys. You need to run from them. You need to run, run, run. Okay. No more keys. Hopefully I can get some holy water. I know you might think, oh, why aren't you fighting them? You can't just fight them. It's not going to work. It's not going to work out for you. Okay. Burn is too great. As soon as we get to cantaline, I swear, as soon as we get there, there's going to be a boss. So it's not even that's not easy. Oh, geez. Okay. We're getting close. All right. Press the gator. Scorpion, one hit kill. Come on. I remember those guys were one shot at me at first and now I'm destroying them. And now we're getting to tougher enemies again. Oh crap. We're almost there. That scorpion does not sound nice. Yeah. So we're going to be using some of this now. Nope. Nope. We're not fighting you. We're running from you. Okay. I'm using more. We're getting close this time or she has to go through. Okay. Nice. Nice. Yeah. These guys are not easy. They're tough. It's not hard. It is hard. It's hard getting up here. It's not easy. You. Shit. Okay. Please work. Yes. Emishield. Why would you do that? That was like a way so move. Okay. He healed even though he wasn't even attacked. The cosmic. Here it is. We're at the town. Awesome. Awesome. Now the golem. This golem is a golem that it that defends. It basically is the the defender of cantaline. So they use the golem to defend their town. Now what I'm going to do. You see that soothing melody on the fairy flute. This is a the weakness of golems which I was told otherwise he will kill me. Don't wake up. Don't wake up. Hopefully just put him back to sleep again. The fairy flute will always put golems to sleep. Okay. We're going to heal again. Please don't wake up. Please don't wake up. If he kills me I'm going to be so pissed. Just waking up. Don't wake up. Oh my goodness. No. What if I just run from him when he falls asleep? Can I just do that? I just want to continue. We're close though. Okay. Next time I'm just not going to fight him. I'm just going to run after I put him to sleep. Okay. That was a lot of grinding I just did actually. Now if we take a look. I'm now level 11 and I have 71 HP, 48 magic, 49 strength, 38 agility. I'm a lot stronger than I was before. That's about two levels I gained since the break. I decided not to record it because it was just walking around and grinding and that kind of stuff. So yeah now I have the power to defeat my enemies and look at how much money I've got. 4,027 gold. You know what that means. It's time to buy some better armor. We're going to kick that golem's butt now easily because with that armor, nobody can beat us. I mean think about it. I'll be able to take a hit and I'll be able to heal rapidly. I'll heal rapidly and I'll be able to basically to weight him out. The problem with that golem was that fighting him under level wasn't a good idea. But now I think I can handle him. So we're going to go for it one more time. The first thing's first. We need to go back to Rimmeldar. We're going to head to Rimmeldar and get that armor set that I want if we don't get attacked first. That is a lot of damage. All right, we're heading down and I'm still in good shape. Things are getting easier from here on out. Not too bad. All right. Okay, here we are. Skeleton. Skeleton man. Oh, I don't think I've all these guys yet. Well, I guess he wasn't that tough, a little disappointed. And as you can see, I'm getting a lot of gold. So now we keep going, I'm a werewolf. Two hits will take him out. Yep. Of course. All right, we're back in Rimmeldar and I'm just going to look around. All right, the guy who's talking about rings, he's here, right? Is that a ring of spy upon that finger? How does that know? Okay, so this is funny. If you take the were-ring and unequip it, and I talk to him, to where a ring is prudent even for a mighty warrior, such adornments are not solely for the province of preening maidens. So he's telling me I should get a ring. And now rings aren't just for women. I put a ring on. I put a freaking ring on like he told me to. Is that a ring? Have you no shame? That's for women only. Like, he's such a hypocrite, this guy. He tells me to put on a ring. I put on a ring and then he gets all mad at me and tells me that it's only for women to do. All right, we're here for this though. We are here for the full plate armor. Now the full plate armor and the magic armor both have similar qualities. One has 55, one has 55, but this one restores HP while you're walking. So we're going to get the full plate armor. This 3000 gold and I'm going to equip it. And of course I'm going to sell whatever I was wearing. The iron armor? Yeah, I'm selling that. Uh, sell what else? That's about it. I'm pretty stocked up on my defense right now. I should probably get some more keys. Yeah, two more keys should do. Hello, old man. Yes, I want a key. I want a key. I want a key. Oh yeah, no more. And I should get some wings. Some chicken wings. All right. Where's that chicken wing? All right. Now we're going to toss the chicken wing in the air. And of course, before we head off, we need to drop our money off of the bank. We don't freaking lose it all. So you can put in about 1000 gold. So I can put in 1000 gold. And I'll just leave it there. So we're going to get rest up. All right. Here we go. So now we're going to head off. That should be good. We're all stocked up on, well, I need some medicinal herbs. Let's grab some medicinal herbs. I can get three more. Okay, I'll take one. Take another. Take another. Another. You have to keep going back and forth. All right. I'll... Can I take any more? Ah, you can only carry six at a time. The dragon scale. What does the dragon scale do again? It increase your defense or something? Let me check. Who knows what it does? I forget what it does. Okay. Yeah. What we need now is magic water. Yes. I want one, I want one. Another. Another. Okay. So we have the magic water. The holy water. The magic water is what replenishes your magic. All right. So we're all set. Let's head off. Oh, wait. I forgot. The holy water. Actually, we can do that when we get closer. Now, you have to rely on running and escaping and all that because the enemies are too tough. All right. We're moving down. Moving south. South for the winter. Skeleton. No match for me, of course. See how much health I got now? I got 71 HP. That makes a difference. That makes a big difference. I'll be able to take like a couple more hits from the golem with that much health. A Scare Wolf. Not so scary. Actually, that's a lot. He is very scary. Heading south. Oh, he wasn't noticing. I could have hit him. Well, that was probably worth it, I'd say. 790. Now, that town we're not going to be really touching right now. We're not really, we're not strong enough to fight the guys in that town at the moment. Oh, he's healing himself. Okay, so we're going to sprinkle some of that water around now. Okay, a gold golem. These guys are good. Go watch this. U-Tac. U-Tac. U-Tac. Keep attacking. Watch this. Done. Now look how much gold I get. I'm going to get barely an AXB. Six AXB, right? 650 gold, which means I'm rich now. Now, we've got to make a run for it because the dark skeleton might show up. Skeleton soldier, Flea. Okay, nice. Managed to Flea. Okay, we're going to toss some more holy water. All right, let's move. Nope, we're running. Okay, that was good. We managed to run on our first try. And now, let me check the map again because we have the map. Might as well use it. All right, got to go north. Got to go north. Flea. Flea. Flea. I need another one of these. You've got to be prepared for this area. It's a good thing we're making it, though. Oh, look, a dragon. A freaking dragon. Isn't that a little early to be meeting dragons and whatnot? Okay, so here it is. Let's go round two. I hope we can do it. I have the flute, yeah, I have the flute. All right, let's go boss time. So now we're going to be using the flute. So I got to move first, as you can see. Which means I'm going to just attack the crap out of him. So I'm faster than him now. Getting to level 11 was enough. He's asleep. Attack. Attack. Boom. Attack. I got a little ahead of myself. I'm fast enough that I can... He wakes up. How can he wake up? The speed is what you needed, so I can just keep putting him back to sleep. I need to heal myself, though. Please sleep, please sleep. Okay. Please don't wake up, please don't wake up. Okay, he woke up. Which means somebody's fair flute again. All right, this is going to be an easy fight now. It would have been hard without it. He wakes up again. Got to be kidding me. Come on, buddy. He's asleep. Got him. Boom. Again. Again. Oh, he's awake? Not for long. This is kind of like cheating, but, you know, he shouldn't have such a bad weakness if he doesn't want it to be exploited. A little annoying how long it takes for him to play the music. Wanna go to sleep? Sleep. Oh, he woke up again. Holy crap. I didn't think you'd be faster than me. I thought I could outspeed him. All right. Don't wake up, don't wake up. Don't wake up, please don't wake up. Damn, okay. Okay, nice. He got lucky that one time he used his extra speed to punch me in the face. Okay, nice. I beat him. How much exp? 2,500. So I'm leveled up. The evac spell, which allows me to get out of any dungeon. And I don't have to backtrack. And I'm level 13. I leveled twice. The zoom spell, which means I don't need any more of those chicken wings. All right. So here we are, cantaline. This guy be cantaline. The impenetrable fortress of cantaline doth bid thee welcome. Wow, would you look at that? I made it. Well, it's been a tough 50 goal. That's a lot of money. That's a lot. All right. Hello. The legend to tell the armor of the mighty Urtrak has passed down from hand to hand. A dynasty of men till it came to the hands of Magog. So someone named Magog has the armor of Urtrak. A seed of resilience. Somebody use it. Immediately. Why not? Okay, who's Magog? Where is this Magog? Hello. The claws of the dragon lord render steel as if it were a parchment with his breath melt stone as if it were ice. Yeah, I'm still worried to fight him. Yes, I am a hero. How does he know who I am? Oh, hello. Well, I guess I should withdraw my money. All right, I withdrew my 1000 gold. Who are these guys? Carrots. Oh. That guy's a carrot salesman. I don't need any of these. Hello. Oh, she's wondering what to prepare. Our town wasn't closed within these mighty walls that my Rottering Monsters made. Might be kept at bay. Hmm. I have a key. It's better be worth it. His family attended a shop in a desert town in Damdara. His grandfather, Magog, monsters laid a waste to that ill-played place. The people who survived from that town came here to Kentlin. Whereabouts of his premises in Damdara? The east of town. Oh, nice. So that means Urtrak's armor must still be his father's shop in that town that we found, that destroyed town. We need to go back there to get the armor. Could we beat that guy, though? All right, hello. Armory. Okay, we've got some weapons here. Full plate. I'm already wearing that. Whoa. I already have that. I'm already fully equipped. Oh, I don't need any more of that. There's a priest there. I realize those fall into hands of the fiends. Should I give them a prayer? There's a lot going on here. Oh, they have an item shop there, too. And they also only sell two things. All right, hello. My father's father did tell Curious Tail. His friend, Magog, and his chest contained the great treasure which he buried beneath the tree behind his shop. That's gotta be Urtrak's armor. All right. Oh, this guy sells magic keys. All right, you're sure I'll take a call. Nope, I only need one. Hello. Humber Armory. This guy's an armor to Fireblade Silver Shield. That's a lot of money. Holy crap. Look how much money that is. That's a good defense, though. When I get money, I will go get that Silver Shield. Now, if you want to know something, getting the Fireblade is not really worth it, if you ask me. And you'll see why soon. Come down here so I can talk to you. Why is he in the corner hiding from me? Come down here, you fool. Talk to me now. Okay. How many Armory shops are there? There's like four of them. And this is all low-level equipment this guy's selling. He's selling crap here. There's so many different shops in the candle that you need to figure out which one to buy from. All right, we'll come back here in a second. Oh, hello. Long and long with darkness threatening land, a great hero descended beyond the heavens. The hero's name is called Urtrak. We sent by the... So the legend says that Urtrak was sent by the goddess from the heavens. Interesting. Now, we have full HP, 79 HP to be a matter of fact. If we get on here... Talk to that old lady. You've got to talk to Sage Lady. Hello? If you want her in search of a mark or seal, that would do all the visit the man in the house that worships south of us. Now, this is tough because if you walk around on here, you will die. So 65, 51, 37, 23. All right, now we gotta... This can kill you easily. This can easily kill you. Okay, so you gotta be careful. You gotta heal yourself. Okay, 37. Holy light protect me. What place? The very spot from which fair tentacle castle stands in mere 70 places north and 40 places west. That's where the seal is. The seal of Urtrak. All right. All right, so we're gonna do this walk again. Yeah, I'm gonna have to heal because if you die here, you're gonna go back to breaking a tentacle castle and that's not fun. Okay, walking all the way back there. All right, that was tough just walking around. Okay, now it's time to heal up. I should put all my money back in the bank. I'll put 2000 gold on the bank. Might as well. I'm gonna deposit and I'm gonna deposit money. So let's deposit 2000 gold. All right, so there's not much else here for us, to be honest. We got all... Why did I even come here? This place is completely optional to come to. I didn't even need to come here, actually, if you think about it. But that guy does tell you where Urtrak's armor is and that sounds important. So we check the map now. And it looks like we're completely closed in. There must be some sort of way. Actually, I'm stronger now. I could probably beat all these guys. Can't die. I'm already level 12 or... Yeah, I'm a little 13 actually. All right, so we go through that mountain range and... Actually, no. There's a better way. Let's see how tough this guy is. Shoot, he's tough. Spells heal. Attack him again. Nice, critical head. Really close call. I'm gonna have to heal again. That was an extremely close call. Now, we can move from here. This guy's easy. I can kill him easy. I'm getting a lot of crits for some reason. Completely restored. All right, now I'm kind of cheating here, but it's the game's own fault. Technically, I shouldn't be here right now. But... Well, I'm just gonna show you what to do. Technically, the princess I should have saved by now, but I'm getting lazy and I don't want to do that. You can speedrun this game really easily by ignoring things that NPCs say. So here's what I'm gonna do. Erdrick's emblem is hidden here. It's gotta be just around here somewhere. Wait a minute, shouldn't it be here? I'm sure it was hidden here. Positive that it was hidden here, actually. Maybe it's not. Maybe I should go save the princess. Basically, you gotta save the princess at this point. I've gotten strong enough to the point where I think I can do it. Let me think. What spells do I have? I think we'll go save for now. All right, 1,476. All right, so I think we'll end today's episode here. Yeah, that was a lot of progress we made. We made it to Kandolin, we got some good information, and it was kind of a worthless trip, but we did make some AXP from killing that golem. So I think we'll go save for now. I think we'll go save for now. All right, 1,476. We did make some AXP from killing that golem. See ya. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time when we continue on in our journey in Dragon Quest, one Nintendo Switch. See ya.

What's shaking? My name's Cam. Welcome back to another video. I hope you're well. Hope the writing's been going good. We're nearly done with the first month of 2022, so I hate to say it, but I think we're past the point of being able to use New Year's as an excuse for procrastination. At least that's where I'm at. Kind of moving back into the grounds of feeling terrible about not doing enough with my time. It's a lot of fun. Anyway, today's video is about questions. It's about the big questions, the questions of life. What is life? What is we? What is we? Who are we? What are we? Where do we fit in in this universe? Will we ever find success? Is there any point to writing? What is art? Is art profitable? Is selling out required? These are just some of the questions that we will not be mentioning at all today. That has nothing to do with today's video. I made a community post on my YouTube page if you want to see future ones like this. By the way, if you want to be kind of included in videos like this one, just subscribe. That's all you need to do. I made a post on my YouTube page asking, Hey guys, it's been a while since I've done this, but how about a Q&A? Ask me anything you like about writing YouTube or the Tube, etc. And I'll answer it in a video. Have you ever gotten recognized IRL? For the not so hip, IRL means in real life. Have I ever gotten recognized in real life? For YouTube? No, not really. I don't think I'm even close to anything that would be considered someone capable of being recognized for their online presence. Plus, a lot of the people that watch me are Americans. The closest thing I've had to getting recognized in real life for the stuff I'm creating is when I wrote my first book years and years ago. It was just a crappy little YA urban fantasy that I self-published, but I grew up in kind of a small town and people writing and publishing their own books was kind of unheard of and I'd moved away by that point. I was living in a big city, but when I went back to the small town to visit family and friends, I went out to the one small nightclub there and a lot of people I didn't know at all were just coming up and like kind of hyping me the hell up. It was amazing. I was actually like just, I had just started seeing this girl at the time and I felt like to her it must have been very bizarre because to her it would have looked like I was a celebrity because we were walking through this like bar, this club and literally every second person was coming up and being like, holy crap, your cam, your cam wolf, you wrote that book blah blah blah and they're acting like I was a New York Times bestseller which was really nice of them in retrospect. It was even close to being like a big deal but it was nice. I felt like a big shot for one night. Hey cam, I'm currently working on some short stories trying to get to know a few characters better that I made up for some project of mine. So how do you work on your characters? What do you do to flesh them out a bit? So I'll leave a card up here for a video where I talked about my outlining process. I remember filming it a really long time ago but I went into very specific detail about how I do pretty much everything associated with writing a book and that process hasn't really changed. When it comes to characters specifically, what I'll usually do is I'll create a character sheet. It's the same thing that a lot of people do in their outlining. I will list pretty much every physical and personality trait to do with that character. Everything from their hair and their eye colors down to their temperament, how they would react to certain situations. If it's a character that is very hotheaded and blows up and gets very defensive anytime that they're challenged, I'll make sure I note that down. That way when I'm writing the actual story, I can refer to those character sheets and I will know exactly how they will react to everything in the story. That in my opinion is the best way to make characters feel real and authentic. Hey cam, I do have a question about anthologies. Since you've hosted several and been a part of them, what does it look like to either create an anthology or be a part of one? Could you possibly do a YouTube video about that? That's a great question Joshua. Thank you. I kind of already have done a video about that. I'll leave another card up here. I'm pretty sure I covered most of it in that video. I can't really remember off the top of my head. But the main thing you need to know about kind of taking the reins on creating an anthology, meaning a book of short stories involving a lot of different authors is, I would say it's extremely accessible for anyone. You don't need to be a big YouTuber. You don't even need to be a YouTuber necessarily. You just need to be able to find a community of other writers and if you ask them, if anyone would be willing to throw in a short story for your anthology, you're always going to find people that are willing. If you're going to turn it into a physical book, there's always going to be people that want to take part in that because they, like myself, love the idea of seeing their writing published and in physical form, you know? It's not easy. I'll say that it's accessible, but it's not easy, especially if you're the one in charge. You got to keep in mind that at the end of the day, you were trying to corral and get, let's say, around 10 different authors to work together on something. That's very difficult. If I was to summarize it as quickly as I can, I would just say it's about finding people that are interested or reaching out to people and asking them. That's the first step. Once you've got all of the people that are going to be involved, that have said, yes, I will take part in this, you're done with step one. Easy. Step two, you write out an email giving very clear instructions about what you need and when you need it by. I want a horror short story that is about vacation or travel and I want it by, I would say give them at least two months to do it at least. It can't be any shorter than 7,000 words. It can't be any longer than 10. That's step two, just letting them know what you need when you need it by. Hopefully step three is you've gotten all of the stories and then it's just down to the more technical aspects and that's formatting, turning it into an actual book. This is both the easiest and the hardest part. If that makes sense, it's because it doesn't make sense. If I could give you a tip, I would say make sure that you tell all of the authors involved to not do their own formatting because I forgot to do that and I ended up having to reformat almost every story, took a long time. That doesn't mean no editing, get them to self edit the story, make sure grammar and spelling all that stuff is good, but no actual formatting, meaning no paragraph in dense, nothing like that. And then the only other thing I would say is working out what you're going to do with the profits from the book because personally, I think any anthology I'm ever taking the reins on, I'm just going to have the profits go to charity because the logistics of having the profits be split between different authors indefinitely is very complicated. Although a lot of other people when they do anthologies will just give the authors involved a single payout regardless of how popular or unpopular that book ends up being. You could say every author involved with this project will get a hundred bucks and that's it, that's all you get from the book forever. And a lot of people will be okay with that, that's a perfectly fine way of doing anthologies. There you go, there is a very long answer to your question. Is it usual for you that you get stuck during the writing process or even get into a writer's crisis? Do you have any methods that usually get you through these hard times? I am in a perpetual state of writer's block, writer's crisis, so yes. If there's anything that gets me out of a bit of a stage of writer's block, it is almost always sudden bursts of inspiration or motivation and you can most definitely kind of give yourself that. The way I do that is through a number of different methods. I will either watch movies, shows, play games within the genre that I'm trying to write in, I know that sounds like procrastination. In a weird way that's actually going to help if all you want to do right now is procrastinate, try to focus your procrastination within the genre that you're trying to create in. If I'm trying to write fantasy I might go watch Lord of the Rings and suddenly I'll be inspired to do some writing. You could listen to music that kind of goes in the genre, you could listen to fantasy soundtracks, that might give you a burst of inspiration. Or something that almost always works for me is going on YouTube and watching videos of people talking about their success stories, people talking about finishing a book or doing a cover reveal, basically seeing people being excited about a book that they're about to publish. That always gets me like in the mood. The main point I'm making here is that you can absolutely give yourself the inspiration. In fact in most cases you're going to need to be the one to do that because if you're just sitting around waiting for inspiration to strike and I know you hear this all the time, you're never going to get anything done. It's just the way it is. I'm trying to read more survival or isolation horror. Any book recommendations besides Welcome Descent which I enjoyed? Well first of all, thank you so much. They were talking about that book down there which is my Psychological Horror Novel that is the only self plug I'll do here, don't worry. If you're looking for stories like that I could definitely give you some recommendations. I'll give you some recommendations for stories that inspired that one actually because if you enjoyed that you'll probably like these. I would recommend High Rise, the short story 1408 by Stephen King was a huge inspiration in me putting out that book. More so the movie actually than the story but the story is still pretty good. If you want a bit of an old school one you could read We Have Always Lived In The Castle by Shirley Jackson. That's a pretty good one. If you don't mind venturing a bit more into sci-fi Dark Matter by Blake Crouch is also one of my all-time favorite kind of horror slash thriller books. It has a very very unusual but entertaining kind of isolation angle where a guy is alone while not being alone he's I can't I can't explain it without spoiling it. You just have to trust me on that one. Actually on the topic of Blake Crouch also Wayward Pines the Wayward Pines series one of my all-time favorite kind of horror series very good very strong isolation vibes. Maybe you've already covered this somewhere but I've just started submitting sci-fi slash horror-ish stories to magazines and am interested in any insight on that or other people's experiences. I know you've done indie publishing and collaborative anthologies just wondering whether you've had any experience and or tips for traditional magazine submission publishing things. I actually haven't um although I it's funny you mentioned this I'll access because in 2022 one of my goals is to have some short stories go out to magazines. It's something I've never really thought a whole lot about before because I would either just put them out myself in my own collection or on Wattpad after free or in these anthologies that are happening a lot more nowadays. So there's this magazine called the darkcornerzine.limitedrun.com that I really want to get a short story into. I can't remember who it was that I saw talking about it. It might have been Mary McWilliams maybe. One of those horror tubers that I've worked with before on these anthologies had a story in one of these magazines and I just love the artwork and the whole atmosphere of the darkcornerzine. I just love it. My only tip would be make sure you are reading the submission guidelines very closely because if there's one thing that will turn them off that will make them just not even bother with your story is if you have done something that they asked you not to do in the submission guidelines. And also make sure that the magazine that you're submitting to is the right fit for the story that you're trying to tell because people underestimate how many different types of horror there is and there is a lot of different types of horror indie presses and magazines and some of them might be more sci-fi focused some of them might be more wacky focused like dinosaurs that kind of stuff. If your story doesn't fit in with their magazine or their press they're not going to bother. Have you ever considered adding a small cameo from one of your previously finished novels inside your current projects? I have indeed. I love the idea of a kind of connected universe. In fact I wasn't going to even mention this I was just going to let people try to find out for themselves to see if anyone did notice but I'll mention it briefly in this one video and we'll see if people remember in the future. In the horror collection that I currently have the first draft finished of that I'll be publishing in a couple of months every story in that short story collection has something to do with one of the other short stories it's very subtle but I'm interested to see if people pick it up and one of those short stories has something to do with that novel. Why are we all if not all most of us are obsessed with the concept of the multiverse? I'm assuming that you're referring to the multiverse now because it's the big thing and in particular movies like we're seeing it and you know Marvel and DC like DC's got like a multiverse thing they're trying to work towards with the flash movie. My theory for why the multiverse is becoming such a popular thing right now is because it's kind of because of Marvel because with Endgame they topped off a 10 year long franchise they did something that's never been done before they quite literally made history they built up towards this cinematic peak and they've reached a point where you can't top that without doing another 10 years of build up so they want to find a way to tap into that same success without having to spend another 10 years making movies and the best way to do that is fan service by giving people old movies coming back in the new movies crossovers don't want to spoil the new spider-man but I'm sure you see where I'm going with this by tapping into nostalgia with fan service they're able to reach those peaks that they did with Endgame just by making people happy reminding them of their you know younger days bringing back actors playing their most iconic roles it's setting off all the neurons it's making people spend money very weird answer to your question but that's why I think the multiverse is so popular right now fan service I make that sound like a problem but I'm actually completely cool with it what do you think of the new hyperventic connection between novels cosme for example does it add to the story or take away from the potential of the story what is going on why that's three in a row about the same thing um anyway I think it absolutely adds to the story as long as it doesn't become the focus of the story let's say Brandon Sanderson's cosme because you used that as an example the reason that is such a cool and fun concept is because it's so subtle you wouldn't even know about the cosme unless someone told you about it or unless you've read the other books in the cosme to see the examples in the easter eggs so it doesn't take away from the potential at all I think um and I do think it adds to it I think I think doing these interconnected worlds kind of this like multiverse thing within stories and having authors different books kind of tied together somehow in very small ways is actually a way to reward the reader for being a fan like with Stephen King all of the Stephen King readers were rewarded with the dark tower series because they were references to all of the other Stephen King books have you ever let your characters take over the direction of your stories absolutely I think the story and the characters always kind of lead the story in their own way like when I outline I will do paragraphs for what I want to happen in each chapter but they always change it always ends up being a whole different thing because when you're actually writing the story the characters and the plot will grow in ways that you didn't expect what's your process for putting a plot together how do you come up with the different beats and put them in the right order do you start with the plot and let that dictate the characters or let the characters dictate the plot I love your videos they're wicked fun to watch thanks josey and um this ties into the outlining video that I've probably already left a card up here for in that outlining video where I broke down my whole process um I specifically mentioned when I outlined the plot again like kind of like what I just said um I outlined it almost paragraph by paragraph and the best benefit of doing that for me the main reason I do that is because it gives me the skeleton of the story that helps me with the pacing I see where the story's meant to rise and fall I know where the major conflicts are and I can build towards them and then I can like have the story kind of mellow out a bit and then rise towards another conflict when you settle on a story how do you keep yourself from jumping to different ideas and stories I don't I mean I wish I had a profound answer for you here but I quite literally have to force myself to not start on different stuff I'll just make like a notepad document giving the idea for the next story I just came up with and I have to forcefully tell myself to not start on something new even though I've done that a bunch of times I'm starting an author tube channel like you to chronicle my journey as an author what do you think is a good video to start for a new channel there is a very easy answer to this mr swam you should always start with the author tube newbie tag you should go on youtube right now and type that in and have a look and you will find plenty of people just starting their own author tube journeys if you could body swap with any author at any point in time and you would also gain their writing skills who would you pick you would expect me to jump to saying like Tolkien or something but Tolkien started with his writing career pretty late in life I think I would want to start a lot earlier and when it comes to classical writers I don't know if I would want to live in that time so I'd probably choose a new writer I guess I might have to say Brandon Sanderson because I really do think he is going to be I think a few generations from now Brandon Sanderson is going to be one of the most iconic fantasy writers of this point in time I genuinely believe that his writing is on a whole whole other level and not only that but he writes so much and of such high quality um he I honestly think he's one of the best writers ever for so many different reasons not just because his writing is good but his attitude the way he interacts with the community he has his own youtube channel where he does like movie reviews and always talks to people he has a beautiful family he just everything about his life at least from the outside uh looks amazing do you think it's possible to write a charismatic first person narrator without them being snarky or sarcastic I think the main trick there is just to make sure that uh the narrator can be kind of condescending or sarcastic at times to the characters within the story but you never want the narrator to seem like a dickhead to the reader in particular who do you think is the biggest mum is boy Jason Voorhees or Norman Bates I mean the answer to that is obviously Norman Bates right there was definitely some weird edible complex going on there what is the best fighting strategy against auto correct let me know if you find out does it really get cold enough to warrant a leather jacket where you live have I ever worn a leather jacket on this channel I don't think I've owned a leather jacket for years um look maybe like twice a year it gets cold enough as a writer do you think it's harder to see your own shortcomings or easier are you hard on yourself or more defensive lately when I noticed bad writing habits forming it's all I think about when you're doing anything creative whether it's writing or singing songwriting painting whatever it can be pretty difficult sometimes to see the flaws in your own stuff because you kind of have to believe in the best of yourself that's the only way to succeed at it noticing the flaws can sometimes be a pretty slippery slope to just feeling like everything you do is garbage when I started I had way too big of an ego when it came to my writing a lot of people in my life a lot of people in my life had told me I was a very talented writer in retrospect I think it was just being nice but it did inflate my head a little bit and it took a long time a lot longer than I would like to admit for me to realize that I had a lot of improving left to do and as far as a single piece of writing advice that I think is total BS pretty much any writing advice that deals in absolutes saying you absolutely have to do this or you absolutely cannot do this it's almost always wrong there is a balance to everything and almost every piece of writing advice should be dealt with nuance I think saying that you absolutely should never use any dialogue tags other than said is dumb I think that's stupid advice but obviously using said should be the primary dialogue tag otherwise it can distract from the story itself there's nuance there's balance have you heard of the newer kindle vela program for serialized stories do you have any thoughts about it would you write anything for it I absolutely have thought about it I would love to start doing like a serialized little story thing within the world of this fantasy series I'm writing I would love to do that for kindle vela unfortunately kindle vela is not available in Australia right now I don't know why as a nausea I'm being discriminated against and I'm not allowed to publish on there apparently which I think sucks how do you find an idea for a story most often it just comes to you it's just a thing you'll think of like you'll see something happen in real life and you'll say to yourself hmm what would happen if this happened instead and then it leads to a whole story do you have a mailing address that one can send you a postcard or something first of all Angelia I hope you are also well I've been thinking about you a lot and secondly no I don't I don't have a postal address but maybe at some point this year I will get myself a PO box I haven't really thought about it a whole lot but yeah I mean I mean it's a possibility have you ever joined a writing contest I did a lot um just after high school or around high school during high school I did a lot of writing contests I think I won two but yeah I think I won two and I'm not flexing because that's two out of like like 50 um but yeah I did enter a lot I haven't done that recently because finding writing contest now is a lot trickier as an adult the logistics a bit are just a bit more difficult and almost everything I'm writing right now I'm writing for the purpose of publishing and when you send a story into a short story competition that's not something you're always allowed to do it kind of feels like author tube is getting a little toxic not you you're quite friendly well do you think that's true as well or it might just be me I have no idea to be honest with you uh because I mean I watch author tube videos but I feel like I miss all of the drama or whatever all the stuff that happens I know I know the woman from the channel heart breathings ended up in a big legal thing recently I heard about and I did kind of look into that and I thought about making a video on it but I decided against it um like I did a lot of the research I started writing up a bit of a script for it but I decided against it because at the end of the day that's a very serious and personal thing that's going on with that lawsuit and it just felt too much like I was sticking my nose in where it didn't belong but I am very willing to say right here and now that I I land firmly on one side and that is with the side of heart breathings I think this whole lawsuit thing against her is fucking absurd for anyone who doesn't know basically here's what happened heart breathings made her own I kind of book or course or advice journal kind of thing for writers to use to purchase and use say what you want about the process of people on author tube selling services like that that's not really the the crux of the issue here they did that and they said that a large inspiration for that was let me get the names up because I should really be using the names I'm talking about this right so the woman from heart breathings her name is Sarah Cannon and the person like putting all this legal shit against her is named Alexandra Sokoloff and I did a lot of looking into this I looked through a lot of the posts on Alexandra Sokoloff's Facebook page about like what the accusations are basically it is that Sarah has taken some of the content or like the writing tips and structures from Alexandra's own like writing course stuff and used it as her own and all it took was like five minutes of looking into it to see that those copyrighted processes that Alexandra is referring to are very very generic and standard like writing advice things that have been sold and put in every self-help book for the last 50 years it's just it's ridiculous the whole situation is absolutely fucking absurd and the big smoking gun that Alexandra has is that Sarah Cannon said in a video at one point that Alexandra's stuff was an inspiration it's just fucking it's it's silly I'm sorry if I'm being completely honest I think all of these like writer's self-help books and courses and stuff are all just the same like generic information being reworded and resold by everyone with a platform I don't think I've never really found a whole lot of value in them but if you're gonna start suing people that like use the same methods that you've taken from other people as well I think you're just kidding yourself you know what is on your 2022 TBR well that's a good question and a question you can have answered by going to my youtube channel where I talk about all of my reading stuff it's called wolf the story nomad and I talk exclusively about fantasy and horror books there if it's not up already I do have a video going up there talking about all of the horror books that I'm excited for in 2022 how much does it cost to self-publish these days by stewart good question stewart and again I'm gonna have to refer you to another video I've done where I went into very specific detail not just about how much I spent but how much I made back self-publishing that is a there is a very long answer to that question I can't really go into that here it's complicated is there anything you would like to change about author tube back in the day I would have said that I would prefer if there wasn't as much drama because back in the day there was a lot more drama with all the christen martin stuff but it feels like nowadays that's the only exciting stuff that ever happens on water tube so maybe we need more of that is there anything I'd like to change about okay here's one I would say I would love to see a lot more collaboration because I think author tube has the most potential out of a lot of communities on YouTube for collaboration and there's just not enough of it for example a lot more people on author tube I think should be doing anthologies we're a huge huge community of writers we could be working together to make tons and tons of anthologies where the prophets all go to charity it could be an amazing and huge thing that's that's what I would change more collaboration but yeah there it is I think that is all of the questions wow this is going to be holy shit this is going to be a long video sorry I appreciate your questions and I appreciate you tuning in to watch me answer them thank you so much especially for watching through this whole big ass thick ass video thank you or in the meantime you can pop in and do some writing with me live over on twitch on my twitch page there it's cam underscore wolf do like three streams a week it's usually two writing streams where we write together and one gaming stream it's a lot of fun it's like a big just club for writers there's a fair few of us over there so if I don't see you there I'll see you in the next video catch ya

Hi and welcome to the session. I am Purva and I will help you with the following question. Choose the correct answer. Integral dx upon e raised to the power x plus e raised to the power minus x is equal to a tan inverse e raised to the power x plus c b tan inverse e raised to the power minus x plus c c log e raised to the power x minus e raised to the power minus x plus c and d log e raised to the power x plus e raised to the power minus x plus c. Now we begin with the solution. Let us denote i by integral dx by e raised to the power x plus e raised to the power minus x So we have I is equal to integral dx upon e raised to the power x plus e raised to the power minus x and we can also write this as this is equal to integral dx upon e raised to the power x plus 1 upon e raised to the power x. is equal to integral dx upon now taking the LCM we get e raised to the power 2x plus 1 upon e raised to the power x and this is further equal to integral e raised to the power x upon e raised to the power x whole square. We can write e raised to the power 2x as e raised to the power x whole square plus 1 dx. Now we put e raised to the power x equal to t. So differentiating we get e raised to the power x dx is equal to dt. Putting these values in i we get i is equal to integral dt upon t square plus 1. Now integrating we get this is equal to now integral 1 upon t square plus 1 is equal to tan inverse t plus c. Now we know that t is equal to e raised to the power x. So putting this value we get this is equal to tan inverse e raised to the power x plus c and this is equal to our option a. So we get our answer as a. Hope you have understood the solution. Take care and God bless you.

If animals have the ability to suffer, then is it immoral to eat meat? What is the moral status of factory farming? If it's immoral to eat meat, then what is the scale of the atrocity being committed every year as billions of animals are slaughtered and eaten by humans? These are the questions I'm trying to answer on the 81st episode of Patterson in Pursuit. Hello my friends and welcome to the 81st episode of Patterson in Pursuit. This week we're talking about a doozy of a topic. Is it immoral to eat meat? I know there are some passionate views out there. Many of you are probably vegetarians, and many of you are probably carnivores. I'm sure we have the whole spectrum covered on this show. But it's a topic I've not really addressed at all, and so I've brought Dr. Michael Hummer back on the show, who has recently written a four-part series of dialogues on this particular topic. The articles are called Dialogues on Ethical Vegetarianism, and they will be linked in the show notes page this week, stevedashpatterson.com, slash 81. Dr. Hummer is back on the show in episode 59, where we talked about approaching infinity. So we've got a completely different topic for us to discuss today. We didn't only talk about vegetarianism and factory farming, we also near the end talked about empathy, and whether or not it's normal to feel a certain way in particular circumstances, and what the connection is between empathy and morality. We even got into a little tiny bit discussing free will and how it ties into morality. So if you're interested in this topic, I hope that you enjoy this episode. Dr. Michael Hummer, welcome back to Patterson in Pursuit. It's great to have you back on the show to talk about the ethics of eating meat, which I consider to be one of the most difficult topics out there. But as you just told me a minute ago, you think it's not so difficult. So I'm so glad to have you to talk about this, because you've recently been working on releasing content on this particular topic. Yes, thanks for having me. Where I kind of want to start with you, we might parallel a bit the dialogues, but I kind of want to start at the beginning and then we'll, I think we'll get into some deeper topics. So let me give you my impression of the topic and why it's so difficult for me, and then you can help explain to me what pieces of the puzzle I'm missing. So I have this general desire to not be in pain and to not undergo any suffering for myself. And I look around and I see other creatures like other humans, and I assume that they're like me. I think that they act kind of as I act. You know, if I get poked with something, I say, ouch. If they get poked with something, they say, ouch. I think, okay, maybe they have this kind of internal experience. And then for some reason I think, you know, I don't want those creatures to undergo suffering either, just like I don't want to feel bad. I don't want them to feel bad either. And that's nice. That sounds, you know, let's be nice to each other. Let's not hurt each other. Okay, that's good. That's easy going for humans. But then I also look around at other creatures like animals, dogs, let's say, and they also seem to feel pain. If I poke them, they will bark or yelp. And I think, well, hang on a second. Is it the case that all of these creatures have the same type of internal experience of feeling pain? And if so, it seems odd that with this particular set of creatures, I cut them up and I eat them. Like if we're talking about cows and pigs, I eat their flesh. And that would strike me as a bad thing if I were doing it to humans, and yet I have this exception for other creatures. So already I'm thinking, okay, what's going on here? How do you see this problem? Like is this a legitimate problem? Is this something that, you know, is only made up by philosophers who create problems when there are none? Or is there really an issue here? Yeah. Yeah, it just sounds like every moral. So, I mean, this seems like parallel to a problem that people might have had a couple hundred years ago, where let's say people in America are believing in individual rights and they believe individual rights for white people, but yet there's this other class of people, the Africans, and they're enslaving those people. And there's a conflict there. And well, you know, the answer is slavery is just wrong. And, you know, why are you doing it? Probably just because it's the convention in your society. That's what's happening with animals and the meat. So you think it's just pretty straightforward. This is a bad thing and it's just, it would be something like slavery. As we look back, you know, 150 years ago, Paul, do you think in the future we're going to look back and say, gosh, this is a huge ethical issue that that generation just overlooked? Yeah, pretty much, right? So, I mean, you know, today when we look back at slavery, we kind of can't understand how somebody could have done that. I assume most of us, you know, how could you not see that that's wrong? But people at the time couldn't see it. And like what we're not realizing is the force of social conventions. It's the convention in your society. Then you just pretty much accept it. So, and it can be something horribly wrong. And you just keep doing it because it's the ingenious society. Like that's what we miss when we think about slavery, but we don't have to miss it because we can just look at ourselves right now. And, you know, think about the things that we're doing right now just because it's society. So, if that's the case, if that's straightforward, then what kind of atrocity do you think is being committed? Because if it's true that something as basic as eating meat is immoral, then you have a, you've got a circumstance where most people on planet Earth are committing this moral bad, you know, multiple times throughout a day. Like do you view this as an extremely bad issue, like an urgent issue? Yeah, it might be the worst thing in the world. People think that I'm exaggerating when I say the worst thing in the world. Almost always when somebody says something is the worst thing in the world, they're exaggerating intentionally, but not in this case. So, because the numbers, just the sheer numbers of animals involved are greater than the numbers of humans affected by any problem that we talk about, right? So, like, we kill something like 57 billion animals in one year worldwide just to enjoy their flesh, and almost all of them are in factory farms. So, 57 billion, the entire human population of the world is only 7.5 billion, right? So, like, we're killing, you know, something close to 8 times the entire human population in animals. And it's hard to see how that could not be the biggest problem. Well, so what about the, so the other part of the intuition is, okay, well, there's a difference, there's a difference. It's not, killing must not necessarily be a bad thing. But when I walk around on the grass, I'm killing little insects under my feet. There's got to be this category distinction between humans, which seem to be this really important creature, and maybe the rest of them. Right. Do you buy that argument? Well, there might be relevant distinctions, but it would be convenient if the distinction is the creatures that you care about matter like a million times more, or maybe infinitely more, than everything else. If you're going to say, you know, some creatures matter more than others, how do you know that the line is humans, you know, humans above the line and everything else below, and everything else below just either doesn't matter at all or matters only one millionth as much? Why would that be the case? So, a couple of ideas that would come to mind, something is like general intelligence. So, all these other creatures that are out there are, some of them seem like automatons when you're talking about insects, but maybe there's some value that humans get because we're so supremely intelligent in comparison to the other species. Right, yeah. Well, so as I say, if you think that, so the usual response to that is, well, if you think that then, I guess that means that mentally retarded humans are fair game, right? So, there are some humans that have extremely low intelligence. In fact, there are profoundly retarded humans who can't even talk and would have less intelligence than an average animal. Does it mean that it's okay to torture them and then, you know, possibly cut them into small pieces and eat their flesh? Most people have an immediate negative reaction to that. So, it looks like, you know, we don't think that intelligence is that important. Right, now, I think it might be true that it does make your life as a whole more valuable. So, it might be true that if you have to either save a smart person or save a retarded person that you should save a smart person. Maybe that's true, but it's definitely not true that you can torture the retarded person. So, what do you mean by torture? What if we're talking about, like, that sounds like it's intentionally malicious. What if we're talking about the quick death? Like with the cows, for example, they have that machine that, you know, sticks a nail in their brain, you know, it's supposed to kill them instantly. Right. Well, I mean, what I mean is that just the entire lifetime of most animals that are raised for food, their entire lifetime is an unhappy lifetime, right? Like they're stuffed into tiny crates or stuffed into these barns, you know, just packed together with other animals, sitting in their own feces, hardly able to move. You know, they have things like they cut off the beaks of chickens or they cut off the end of the beak and it contains nerve endings. So, it's probably incredibly painful, but there's no anesthetic for any of this. And they just do things like this. They cut off the tails of pigs, again, without anesthetic, which probably feels about the same as when your finger cut off. And so it's just like, and then just the entire lifetime of the animal, they're not able to do any of their natural behaviors. It would be sort of like if you had to live in all closets for your entire life. If you did that to a human being, I think we would call it torture. Like there would be no, if you did these sorts of things to human beings, actually there would be no doubt. Nobody would have a problem with calling that torture. So with those examples, like the cutting of the beak and the cutting of the tail, from what I understand, those are to prevent the animals from hurting each other. So like the, to prevent the chickens from pecking each other to death or from the pigs biting each other's tails off. It's kind of like, it'd be like a more extreme version of cutting your dog's nails that it might hurt and sometimes you might cut the quick, but it's actually kind of for their own good in those cases. Well, sort of, I mean, it's for their own good in the context of being stuffed together with all these other animals in these unnatural conditions, right? But that doesn't take away the fact that it's probably extremely painful, right? So do you think that there is a kind of, like in the animal and its state of nature is definitely a happier animal? Right, yeah. I mean, sort of like asking, well, would you rather live in a tiny closet or just live a normal life? Well, but it does seem like there's a bit of a difference there with humans. So I'll just give, I'll make a devil's advocate case and I'll say my personal experience. I can imagine plenty of scenarios where, let's say, the lives of dogs are completely unnatural, let's say, in the United States. And they're essentially pampered compared to what life would be like as a wild dog. So I don't think it's just the unnaturalness of it that is either good or bad. But on the other hand, my wife and I have recently done some traveling in different places in the world. And when we were in, I think it was New Zealand or it might have been Ireland, they had like cows that weren't all packed together. They were out in these huge pastures. And I remember very vividly, but my wife and I were just talking about this the other day, like the little calf springing around as if she was like a four-year-old kid out on a field, just like practically spinning around in circles just to enjoy, which is not something that you see, you know, American cows don't do that. They're too fat, they're too crammed together. But it seemed like it was not a state of nature, but there's a more, definitely a, it seems to be a happier state when you give animals more space, which is not hard to understand. Yes, I mean, as you brought up, the way that we treat our pets is typically much better than they would be treated in the wild. But the way that we treat livestock is much worse. I mean, the natural life isn't the best possible life, right? But, you know, living in a factory farm is very much worse. Okay, so is your argument then really about factory farming being an ethical issue versus just eating meat per se? So if we had, if we raised all of our animals, let's say, on our own farms, killed them ourselves in a humane way, do you think that's an ethical problem? Well, so... I mean, if we were to talk about farming because of your space, like I think almost any moral view, I think any plausible moral view has that that's wrong. If you had perfectly humane farms, then there would be an issue, right? Like different moral views would disagree. Clearly, you can't torture other creatures. Whether you can kill them painlessly then would be debatable and would depend upon whether you believe that they have rights. And to figure out whether they have rights, we would need like a theory of rights. We would need to know why anyone has rights in the first place, which is really hard to answer, right? So like, I don't have a theory of the foundations of rights. I think that I have them, but I don't really know why. So it's hard for me to say who does it, doesn't have them. I guess if it's like not sure, then you should try to avoid killing the creatures that even might have rights. Okay, so let's kind of explore a little bit down that route. So why would we say at all that it is definitely a bad thing for consciousness to experience suffering? That seems like it's kind of almost smacks of self-evidence, but really it's more of like a description of a state of things that like for the conscious creature in that state, it probably would prefer not to be in that state, but why should we care about that? Why should we care about the preferences of conscious beings at all? Yeah, I mean, can I just say that this is sort of an ethical axiom? You can imagine somebody saying, well, yeah, why should we care about other humans, right? This is the challenge of the ethical egoist that people have been worrying about in ethics for a long time, right? Well, if you meet somebody who really doesn't care about anyone other than themselves, there's probably nothing you can do other than put that person in jail. So you can't persuade psychopaths to adopt morality, but if you do care about people other than yourself, then it seems to me like the question is, well, why would there be a relevant difference between other people and just other sentient beings in general? Okay, so I think it's very compelling to have kind of empathy towards, let's say, higher-order creatures. So humans is trivially easy for most people. Maybe their pets would probably be right up there, maybe cows and stuff, but what about when you get down to the lower-order creatures? Let's say rats. So rats are something that most people don't like. They're not furry, they're not cuddly, and they're probably not tasty. I don't know, I've not eaten a rat, but they certainly don't look that way, and yet they seem to have the same, I would guess they still have the same internal experience. If you step on a rat or you poke a rat, it squeals. So are you saying the same argument would apply to something like you shouldn't use mousetraps that kill mice, or the harvesters that go through the fields and get grain for the harvest that are killing a bunch of these creatures in the fields. They're also committing a kind of many atrocity? Well, so a couple of things. One, we're not sure whether it's wrong to kill an animal painlessly. You know, what you're just talking about probably wouldn't be very painless at all. We're also not sure what's going on in the minds of other animals. So kind of the lower down they go, or the simpler they are, the harder it is to imagine their experience. So we don't know if they're experiencing kind of the same thing that we would experience. And that being said, I would say, well, you should probably avoid doing things that plausibly might be causing harm, if you're not sure, if you don't have a good reason for doing it. So a good reason for doing it would be, well, I have to do it to survive. A good reason for doing it is not, I'm going to slightly increase the pressure during my meal. What about if you have a mouse infestation? Because that's not a matter of life and death, but it's all convenience, but it seems like most people would be like, get the suckers out of there, fumigate them, kill them, whatever you got to do. Yeah, I don't know. There's probably some painless way of getting rid of the mice, but I don't really know because I haven't looked into it. I never had a mouse infestation, so I never had to think about that. I guess I'm also kind of wondering what the mice are doing to you. That's so bad. Well, getting into your food, they're very expensive. They're dirty. They're gross. They can affect your health, physical well-being, which is not a life or death issue. It's like a quality of life issue. Yeah, I don't know. There's some point at which it's okay to cause harm to other creatures. You have a pretty good reason. And it's not exactly obvious when the reason becomes good enough, but there are some cases that we just know are not good enough. You can sort of raise cases where you can imagine the reason getting stronger, how much of a nuisance are the mice getting to be. And you can have doubts about how much experience the mice actually have. So you can make cases where it's unclear whether it's okay. I think that most people should focus on the clear case. So you should first fix the thing that you're doing that's very clearly wrong. And then after that, worry about other cases where you might be doing something wrong. What if it's the case that these edge issues, these edge cases reflect on maybe one of our principles or one of our axioms are mistaken. So in the case of rats or small critters, you have millions upon millions that get chewed up in the combines. Literally as the farm equipment's going through the field, it kills a lot of creatures in the farm equipment. It also takes away all of their land, say they essentially die, destroys their houses. You're causing all kinds of mental anguish if you're even eating vegetables that are kind of mass produced. So it seems like if we follow the line of reasoning that leads us to vegetarianism, it should also lead us to planting our own food so that we don't rely on farm machinery. Well, I mean, what you're doing is sort of describing cases in which you would have a lot stronger reasons for what you're doing and the reasons against it would be weaker. Right, and then sort of saying because of that case, maybe it's okay for us to continue our behavior in the case where we have much weaker reasons for doing it and we're causing more harm. So that's probably not going to be as successful. Well, that's kind of correct. But what it's doing is it's challenging some of the fundamental claims. Because if this idea is that it's not okay to kill other conscious creatures for your own convenience, then if that's the claim, if that's kind of the axiom or the ethical principle, then if this would be a case, if it's a universal, then that would also say, well, you also have the ability to grow your own food and growing your own food means that a lot less creatures are going to die and you're not patronizing factory farming of vegetables which kills a bunch of conscious creatures. So if the latter case is not something that we would accept, I would say, okay, well, maybe that means that the axiom is not quite correct or that the foundational principle isn't quite correct. Yeah, so the principle is not it's always wrong to kill. It's not even it's always wrong to kill a sentient being. And in fact, we don't even think that about intelligence. It's not always wrong to kill an intelligent being. The principle is something like, well, you have a reason for not causing pain and suffering. And in order to overcome that reason, you need to have pretty good reasons in favor of whatever action would cause pain and suffering. But couldn't we just say the same thing about the vegetables? So to save argument, you're causing pain and suffering by destroying all of the land and by killing a lot of them outright when you have a simpler alternative. You have an alternative that is plausible that you're only choosing the more violent route and the more convenient. Yeah, I don't think this alternative is possible. Okay. So what is it like we're all going to go and become subsistence farmers? So we have to basically dismantle all of the industrial society and we're all going to be living in poverty. Well, if you just think about the sheer magnitude of the benefits of modern society. I mean, I agree, but I'm challenging the principle. I'm saying, actually, I think that is where the argument leads. Because what you're saying, you're making an economic case to commit a kind of ethical atrocity. So this same argument, right, when the slave owner said, well, what are we supposed to do if we don't have slaves? We're all going to be in poverty because the slaves are economically efficient. So if we reject that case, if it's the case that in order to live a morally good life, you have to be poorer, I think, wouldn't you have to choose the morally good life over the wealth? So you're sort of assuming what's in dispute. So I guess you're assuming that self-interest reasons can't outweigh moral reasons or something. If you have a moral reason for not doing something, a self-interested reason can't outweigh it. But we know that that's almost independently. I definitely wouldn't say that. I would say that if you're talking about weighing economic gain versus the weight of the suffering of other conscious beings, it seems like if you want to have a kind of principle, then I guess I should ask, maybe I should make this statement in a formal question. Are you claiming that there is some kind of purely economic trade-off where we're going to say, okay, if this action brings us that much wealth, then we can cause a bunch of undue suffering to innocent creatures that did nothing wrong? Yeah. So consider a related case. When you drive your car, there's always a risk that you're going to kill another person. And just in case you're going to say that the other people deserve it because they're driving the car to, there's a risk that you'll kill a pedestrian. In fact, something like 50,000 people are killed in car accidents every year. So why don't we stop this horrific practice? Right. Well, yeah. It's basically because it would ruin our economy and ruin our way of life. And it looks like there's a moral reason for not imposing a risk on other people, which you're doing every time you drive the car. It looks like your reason for doing it is basically an economic reason, but it's a self-interested reason. But that doesn't mean that it's impermissible, right? I agree, but why can't I just say the same thing about factory farming? That the benefit is cheaper food that's ever existed for all of humanity. That's a big economic benefit. Yeah. But look, you get that benefit. In fact, you get more of it if you become vegetarian. Food is going to be even cheaper if we become vegetarian. And we're going to continue to have the benefits of modern society. The only thing that will happen is that some of our meals will be less pleasurable. If you look at the sheer magnitude of the harm in question with the 57 billion animals that are basically being tortured and then killed, it's plausible that a single year of that outweighs most of the suffering in all of human history. Well, how much of this argument comes down to that economic claim that would actually be cheaper if we were to be vegetarians? Because I know coming from humble backgrounds, vegetables are very, very expensive in comparison to cheap fast food. You can get a lot more nutrients, a lot more caloric density per dollar. If you're eating at McDonald's, then you can if you're eating vegetables. You mean you can get fatter by eating at McDonald's? Yeah, which is very important at the margins. If you're poor to be able to get fatter, I think this is false. If you really wanted to get the cheapest calories, get a bunch of rice and or potatoes or something like that, you can get tons of calories on it, and it's super cheap. You can buy big 10 pound bags of rice. I don't know how much that costs anymore, but it's going to be really cheap. But look, this is the main point. As I say, the amount of suffering that we're causing, it just looks like the amount of suffering that we're causing to the non-human animals outweighs by orders of magnitude all of the benefits that we get from everything, from our entire existence. It's not really plausible that you can justify causing that amount of harm to get a little bit more pleasure during meals or even if you were saving a little bit of money. I think there's the nutrient factor as well. Meat is packed with all kinds of things that it's really, really hard to get if you take meat out of your diet. The big ones are B12, that's the popular one, but there's all kinds of micronutrients as well. If you eat a bunch of beans to try to get, for example, you're going to be causing inflammation in your body because there's phytates and things in the beans and the same with flaxseeds. It's not just... I'm highly skeptical of this. I'm skeptical of this argument partly because I think most meat eaters are pretty unhealthy and I think most meat eaters, in fact, don't care about their health and I think they're mostly eating tons of saturated fat and they're clogging their arteries and all this, but then they only start talking about their health concerns when you start pressing them to change to a vegetarian diet. Maybe you are a health nut, I don't know. Well, it's actually a good example because my wife and I have been dealing with health issues for the past several years and we tried going vegan for a bit and felt terrible and a lot of people have that experience and so yeah, as we've been trying to build a healthy diet, good quality meat is a... You're probably doing it wrong. You're probably doing it wrong. So I haven't noticed any problems. So I'm not an expert on nutrition. I haven't really researched that. I was never worried about it. Nothing bad happened to me from not eating meat for the last 20 or 30 years or something. Although, in fairness, I'm also eating scallops and clams and things like that, which have a brain. So you probably get the same... Yeah, I definitely don't think that you can... It might be possible in theory to get the kind of nutrients from a vegetarian or vegan diet that you can when you eat meat, but I think it's extremely difficult and really not realistic for the vast majority of people who don't have a long time to plan these things out. You mentioned saturated fat. So in the world of nutrition, there's been this dogba for a long time, well, maybe 40 years or something like that, that saturated fat is this really bad thing but it turns out it's not a bad thing. Proper circumstances, saturated fat is really good for you. It's really good for your animal saturated fat. Animal fat is really good for your body. It's really good for your brain. So there's very strong evidence that says, actually, our bodies benefit greatly from eating high-quality meat. Now, crappy meat, you might be correct. I would agree with that. So I'm skeptical about this. If somebody say that, I'm not a nutritionist, so I'm not going to argue about that. I'll just say that you can find, you can go argue with Mylan Engel who talks about the health benefits of being vegan. So as I say, okay, you need some meat in your diet, so just convert to only eating scallops, clams and oysters which don't feel pain and you'll still get the protein and whatever. That's not correct. But two things. First, I definitely don't think that's correct. It's not the case that meat is interchangeable. Red meat has different things in it than scallops has different things than fish, different things than poultry. But let's say, for the sake of argument, that's correct. But in fact, meat is good for you in the right context. Would that change the argument? Does that actually change whether or not what you're claiming is correct? So it depends on how large the benefits are supposed to be. But so with most ethical questions, you can describe a bunch of hypothetical cases that are difficult. And I think it's usually unproductive when it comes to all of the hypothetical cases. Frequently, we find that we're just not in the difficult case. And thus, we don't have to spend a lot of time keeping time to resolve the difficult case. So I think our actual case is, well, the actual reasons that we have for eating meat are just not anywhere close to being strong enough. So periodically, students will tell me something about how, oh, they can't give up meat because something is going to happen to their health. And I simply don't believe them. And you might think that, well, since I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist, I don't have anybody to not believe them. But I don't believe them. I think that they're making rationalizations. And I haven't experienced any of the negative consequences that I'm supposed to have from not eating meat. So I think it's both. What about all the other people, like the tons and tons of people online who say I try to go vegan, try to go vegetarian, and I had all of these side effects? Like there's a lot. That's a huge community of people. No, no. So I haven't seen a scientific survey. They might have been doing it wrong. So I have no doubt that it's possible to construct a vegan diet that's not good for you. But, you know, it's also possible to construct one that's fine. So they were probably just not doing it right. But I mean, so just to push back a little bit here, your argument is appealing to your own personal experience and body composition in saying, well, because I've been doing this, I don't believe other people. And the human body is this unbelievably complex system that varies from person to person. Like some people are allergic to grains and other people aren't. And there's all these variables. So to say, because you've tried it for 20 years, other people, when they report their experiences are wrong, seems dubious. I mean, of course, it's not just me. There are many vegans doing fine. And I think it's very plausible. So just before doing the experiment, like of course you should believe that some vegan diets are unhealthy, right? We can already assume that. So I think it's a very plausible explanation that some of the people would be doing it wrong. So what about the set of people, hypothetically, who are doing it right, doing it by the book and even ethically motivated to do so? And let's say that failed what, like let's say they got depression because they weren't getting enough saturated fat or whatever it is. Do you think in those cases, if your body composition is such that really it does significantly affect your well-being, do those people get kind of an exception to the ethical rule? Well, so I don't know exactly what you're talking about. So, and I don't know if these are real cases or just hypothetical. So I'm not sure what the answer is. So I don't think that we're going to get very far on this because we're debating about an empirical scientific question and neither of us is a scientist. There are people who know about this including some people who are vegans that would be more appropriate to talk to but I can't argue about the cells of biochemistry or things like that. I'm trying to give a theoretical example. I'm skeptical when I hear about things like this. When I try to articulate why I'm skeptical, I think it has to do with the fact that when talking to people about vegetarianism, I get so many things that are obvious nationalizations. When I hear a new thing, if I don't know for a fact that the factual claims are true, then I tend to suspect that it's another radical example. I tend to suspect that it's another rationalization. I hear you. There's bad arguments on all sides of every issue. I totally agree. So I'm saying in the theoretical case that there's this set of people, maybe it's large, maybe it's small, maybe it's non-existent, saying in the circumstance in which actually the vegan diet significantly reduces your quality of life for whatever reason. We can imagine that somebody's got some, let's say, genetic abnormality where they can't digest soybeans properly or whatever it is. Does the rule then not apply? Do those people say, okay, now in those individual cases, it is justified for them to eat meat or maybe just humanely raised meat or what do you do with those hypothetical people? Yeah, they should probably try to minimize the amount of suffering, so they should probably try to get the certified humane meat which is animal welfare or organizations that examine meat producers and certified humane is a specific organization that looks at whether they're humanely raised and slaughtered. They should probably just try to minimize that. You might also try to only eat meat from the animals that you think are less likely to be sentient or something like that or less sentient than other animals. Last thing that I want to talk about, we've kind of hit it at a couple of angles here, but it's this idea, it's kind of like an abstract scale that you have. On the one hand, you have the benefits of eating meat in addition to factory farming and on the other end of the scale, you have the massive amount of suffering that's caused by that action and you weigh them and you say, okay, it is very clear that the benefits do not at why the costs. So there's a couple of things I want to ask about that. One is, are you appealing to a kind of objective moral system when you say that that's very clear or is it appeal to kind of our, almost everybody's intuitions on the topic. You weigh one versus the other. It's kind of like, let's say, eating something gross. Eating vomit is like pretty much universally seen as gross and we all have this very strong gut feeling that it's just gross, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's like some objective principle that that is gross. When it comes to ethics, is that what you're doing or are you saying it's objective versus this kind of thing that we agree to? So as you might know, I'm a moral realist, so on any ethical question, I think there's an absolutely correct answer. I mean, this particular issue isn't special. So if somebody asks me, why should you not murder children? Well, it's causing a lot of harm. You don't have any good justification for it and then you say, okay, but are you claiming that that's an objective moral? You sound like every moral truth is an objective moral. If you don't believe in objective moral truths, there are multiple different theories that people have that are alternatives, but they generally try to preserve some of our intuitions about things that are right or wrong. So people who hold some subjectivist theory still try to explain why you're wrong to torture children. Okay, so what I want to say is if you have some anti-realist theory or whatever your theory of ethics is, if you have some theory that can still explain why you can't torture children, it will probably also get you to the result that factory farming is wrong. Okay, so then the other question about that is maybe a little bit more meta, and when we're making these kind of... One of the reasons I struggle with ethics in general, not just of this particular topic, but ethical ideas in general, is because I haven't overcome some basic skepticism about the foundations, like the meaning of ethical claims, but that aside, it does seem odd that in this circumstance when we're trying to decide is some particular phenomena wrong or right, is this an atrocity or something that's not a big deal, we are kind of by default giving a special exception to humans because we're saying, oh, we're these moral creatures, like when we see a lion horribly maul some other creature, it's like, oh, well, that's nature. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think most people I don't think feel like animals in general are moral creatures. But why then do we give ourselves the exception? If we're a part of nature, why would we even be having this discussion? It's like, well, we're just doing whatever we're doing with just another species that has discovered farming and that's the way it is. Yeah. I mean, well, human beings have sort of developed over time from being, you might say, more animal-like to being more civilized, I guess. So, I mean, if you say, oh, well, why don't we just act according to our nature, you know, follow our instincts, include being other animals. That also includes making war on other humans. So, maybe we should go back to raiding other tribes in order to kill the men and kidnap the women. Well, no, I mean, it's a large amount of progress. There's a large amount of progress that's happened that consisted in kind of restraining our natural impulses. And you might think, well, oh, so then, you know, why don't we get lions to restrain their natural impulses? And the answer is that we can't. So, like, if we could make lions become more intelligent and morally sensitive than great, right? But there's no plausible plan for making that happen, right? So, when you're making, when you're concluding about different creatures and their capacity for making moral decisions, is another kind of assumption here, or something that we pack into our framework of analyzing this issue that humans even have the ability to make moral decisions? Does this whole theory presuppose some kind of will, some kind of free will that we're also saying, well, these other creatures maybe don't have it, but we actually genuinely have the ability to choose. And that's where we get moral claims because it seems like if we didn't have the ability to choose, well, then moral claims don't really have any purpose to do it. Yeah, human beings have the ability to choose and kind of moreover the ability to use intellectual moral reasons to overcome our instinctive drives, right? So there's the thing that you feel like doing and the thing that will give you pleasure and then there's the thing that when you reflect seems like the right thing to do. Non-human animals generally don't have the ability to do the thing because it's more the right. They just have the ability to do the thing that they want to do or that's why we can have moral obligations. The non-human animals can't have moral obligations but that doesn't mean that we can't do wrong to them, right? They can't do wrong because they don't really have free will in the same way that humans do. We can still do wrong to them because we have free will and we have the ability to reflect on our actions and not do the thing that we feel like. Is that another... How essential is that assumption to the... I guess not just this moral case but all of moral claims that you could make is that we do have the ability... I guess that we have free will. Is that something that's just packed in from the start? We have to assume it because otherwise we don't get any morality really or any meaning or obligatory power to our moral conclusions if we can't choose in the first place. Yeah. I think... This isn't specific to this moral issue. I think every moral issue requires an assumption that we have free will. This is one of these things where there's a philosophical controversy about it but most philosophers who would deny free will there's some philosophers who deny that we have free will most of them would try to come up with some account of why you can still talk about morality. Right? If you can't then that's a big mark against your theory. If your view is we don't have free will and that entails that there's nothing wrong with torturing babies then there's something wrong with your theory. What if the theory were something like we don't have free will and that's why when we say it is wrong to torture babies what we really mean is it will result in bad outcomes if we torture babies or I have a negative feeling towards torturing babies something like that. Yeah. My response would be that's not what it means. So when we use this talk about right and wrong and what you shouldn't shouldn't do so one function of it is it's used for evaluating other people and deciding how we feel about their behavior but another function of it is it's used for decision making. So when you make judgments about what you should do you then use those decide what to do and that's crucial to the concept of short. If you don't think that you have free will then like the whole thing doesn't kind of doesn't make sense. If you don't think you have free will then you can't say that you should or shouldn't do anything. And then when you're deliberating about what to do your deliberation doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense to be deliberating about what to do if you don't have any choice about what to do. Well you don't have a choice of your deliberation either. Yeah you must think that you're being forced to deliberate or something and no choice but to deliberate but I think it's sort of impossible to seriously take on this anti-free will view. You're going to be constantly disbelieving your own theory constantly struggling to get yourself to believe it right but constantly failing. I agree and that's a whole other maybe that actually is the hardest issue. Free will is one of those things where when I think about the theory of it I go gosh how could that work and then I think about the experience of being me and I think how could it be that we don't have it. It's like this really difficult pickle but that actually brings us to the beginning of the conversation because in the beginning of this conversation we were talking about whether or not there's this kind of category exception for humans versus the other creatures but maybe we actually just discovered it. Maybe that's the ethical principle is that don't inflict unnecessary suffering on creatures that have free will because humans seem to be the creatures at least that do have free will. Right so then it's going to be permissible to torture babies because well and you know babies are really dumb okay might also be permissible to torture but no they can't do anything they just sit there crying right. So they're not reflecting on their actions and forming moral beliefs and deciding to restrain their impulses or anything right. It's also probably going to become permissible to torture some mentally ill people right so plausibly some mental illnesses take away your ability to deliberate and rationally reflect on your actions and I assume that we don't think that if it's not permissible you need to see on this. So you think then that free will is something that is not given to humans as a general category it's something that kind of evolves in some humans or maybe most humans they eventually develop the capacity of it at some point in their development. You develop free will to grow up right. When you're first born you have an extremely low degree comparable to non-human animals and then it develops. Also you know you can have mental or brain damages that can inhibit your free will right. Okay this is really interesting if you I'm I don't know about free will but I am really curious about this idea of the development of it and this maybe intimate connection with the rational faculty and the ability to choose but would you agree with the following claim that in one particular species of creature it seems to be that they have developed some metaphysically distinct and unique capacity that is in contrast to the way that the rest of the universe works really profound and remarkable. Like we don't talk about planets having will we don't talk about plants having will. We don't talk about practically anything else and yet it's as remarkable as it seems when you give it that kind of story or perspective. I don't understand free will so I'm not sure how amazing it is right. I think consciousness is amazing. I think consciousness is the like the real thing that part some things from you know most of nature and that's the thing that we should be most amazed by. Developing free will is sort of it's a further development of the mystery of consciousness but I think it's not so the difference between a non-conscious being is a very large qualitative difference difference between beings that have free will and those that don't is I think more of a difference of degree because the beings that we say have free will namely us we don't have the maximum degree of freedom we're not perfectly free and the beings that we say don't have free will they just have very little free will they have little freedom right so like it's sort of like the non-human animals have very low levels of intelligence which don't enable them to think very hard about what they're doing. It doesn't give them very much control over their actions but as you get more intelligent and more reflective and maybe more self-aware maybe more aware of your own impulses able to reflect on the reasons for and again then you get more control but that obviously comes in degrees so it starts out really low and then we normal adult human beings have pretty high levels but we could develop more in the future so I'm guessing then that your perspective on moral intelligence maybe is similar to your perspective on general intelligence in the sense that it really is a process of evolution that we see in nature lower levels of intelligence and we see actions that correspond to low levels of general intelligence and humans might be in the process of developing their moral intelligence so just like a thousand years ago things that seemed totally reasonable actually turned out to be appalling maybe at present things that seem totally reasonable like oh yeah going down to the burger store and getting a burger might in the future in hindsight seem to be totally appalling because we're on that spectrum of evolution yeah I think that's right so I mean I don't think of moral thinking as being totally different from thinking in general so I think there's general intelligence and you use your general intelligence and your faculty reason in general to think about morality but it's just that people started out not knowing much about this just as they said about not knowing much about every other subject so like the theories that people had about physics and biology and medicine and geography they were all totally wrong and then they just gradually get better over time which is like the way our moral views are getting better over time but like people today when we think about the theories of a thousand years ago when we think about the scientific theories of a thousand years ago we think they're just ridiculously wrong they're basically totally wrong and I think that's a similar phenomenon it's much as when we look at their moral views we think that they're totally wrong yeah well I think that's a great note to end on and a couple of times we've kind of bumped into this consciousness and you dropped a really interesting phrase there you said that consciousness maybe is the thing that is most remarkable that is like the biggest category difference between what is conscious and what is unconscious I tend to agree but I would love to know your thoughts on that because I'm exploring myself I'm pushed into something like a metaphysical dualism like a hard cartesian substance dualism that there is mind and there is world and maybe an interaction between the two but they're like categorically separate things but I wonder what your thoughts are on that obviously we can't talk about it but maybe you can come back on the show and share your metaphysical thoughts on what the mind is yes I'm sympathetic to a kind of emergent dualism okay but I don't have time to defend that now right right well great thanks thanks very much for coming on the show and you know I feel like maybe this is one of those things if morality is on the spectrum of intelligence maybe I've got some kind of intelligence block here because I really have a difficult time I don't have a difficult time feeling the the pull of moral reasoning because I definitely am empathetic compelled but the rational justification of finding foundations I just I have a real block on even getting to the point where ethical claims have are like something more than statements of preference you know yeah well just think about how you would respond to somebody who is violating other people's rights in very severe ways and you know they think well it's just a matter of preference if you have a view that explains why they shouldn't like why you shouldn't you know rob other people or beat other people up and so on you'll probably also explain why you shouldn't torture animals and if your view implies that there's nothing wrong with beating up other people then you know you're probably probably getting confused like you're probably wrong you should probably set aside the abstract theory I guess the difficult like when I think about the feeling I have I very much have a deep feeling that people that are violating other people's rights are you know jerks and it makes me feel horrible and I would want to bonk them on the head that type of thing but I have a hard time distinguishing is that feeling of disgust categorically separate than a feeling of disgust if somebody you know is going and eating vomit like it really is a very strong feeling of disgust and you know I just can't identify if that's in the same category or if it's in a totally a completely separate category well they're both feelings but so I mean there are plenty of things that were wrong but I didn't feel disgusted and there are plenty of things I find I don't feel wrong I don't think eating vomit is wrong and like I'm not even at all tempted to think that that you know there are cases where you can judge something to be wrong even though you don't have any personal feelings about it so it was wrong of Emperor Nero Agrippina like 2000 years ago I know that it was wrong but I don't care you don't have a feeling of disgust about it I don't think so you know if it is it must be such a slight feeling that I'm not because what is Agrippina to me that happened 2000 years ago like I never even knew either those people I could probably get myself to feel more about it if there was like a really vivid description that filled in all the details right and so that I could have this vivid image in my mind then I probably feel something about it but I do feel something about it and it was interesting you made that distinction to think things that I totally accept that there are things that are not wrong that you feel disgust but the other one things that are wrong that you don't feel disgust I'm thinking well it's hard for me to think of something like that that I don't feel some measure of disgust if something is morally I would call morally wrong do you have any other examples um well are you sure you really mean disgust because to me the things that you the things that are disgusted are all the things that are wrong like uh okay you know somebody embezzled money from their company so I think that's wrong I don't think that's disgusting well it depends on the context so like concretely if it's the case that in the process of embezzling money they're breaking a bunch of contracts lying to a bunch of people harming people then yeah I do I do definitely feel disgust like a disgust mixed with an anger I think would be the that flavor of emotion yeah so you know I would feel anger if it has something to do with me um and I might be able to feel anger if enough details were filled in even if it didn't have to do with me imagining the victims or something like that um but it seems weird to me to feel disgusted what is the thing that you feel so like with the circumstance of somebody murdering somebody else 2,000 years ago is it just like is it just yes I know factually thinking that that is a bad thing although I feel nothing don't you feel bad for the family or that injustice took place well I'm not feeling much of anything right you know I don't know if I'm unusual or if you're unusual I don't know either but I find it hard to feel much of anything about some person who lived 2,000 years ago about whom I know nothing other than that she was murdered really all I know is that she was Nero's either his mother or his wife he killed both of them and he murdered her that's all I know you know why that is it's because you're not eating enough animal fat so it's a better of health that's a joke I say well it could be a benefit it could be I don't know if I'm the odd ball or if you're the odd ball in this circumstance because it almost seems like that and that's also why I have this difficulty with the category distinction of determining whether or not there's something unique about ethical claims versus you know claims of preference or statements of feelings of disgust in that type of thing because in my own internal experience I have a difficult time imagining something that I really believe is morally wrong and I don't have a the same general like conscious feeling of disgust that's so I was going to say I don't know if this is true but I hypothesize probably you're unusual because usually the emotions that people have are tied to themselves so usually you feel mad because something negatively impacts you also like the feeling of disgust usually has to do with some kind of contamination so if you think that something will contaminate its environment then that thing is just oh you know what I think I think it would be something like I'm disgusted by the human that the dirty or contaminated human that would do such a thing so my disgust maybe is directed towards my feelings about the human Nero rather than the actual act itself yeah right Nero's character in general was probably disgusting right I've also heard that Libertarians tend to be lower on empathy than people with other political ideologies but empathy has a lot to do with our moral reactions but I wouldn't have a problem I wouldn't have any difficulty empathizing if I actually saw Agrippina like if I actually saw the individual who was being wronged or if I knew details about their lives I wouldn't have any trouble empathizing I just don't have any scenario where all I know is that they're the victim of a crime but you know that the abstract is correlating to the concrete so it's like that you don't know the details of course but it's still I know that there are details right so that might be part of how I know that it's wrong so I don't know but I know that I would feel a negative reaction if I witnessed the scenario if I knew the details or something like that okay so this is I don't want to keep you too long but I got to ask you a basic question now because you brought up a word that I don't understand and especially in this context which is empathy so is empathy the thing that one is feeling when you observe or think about the injustice or is empathy like the ability to have feelings of this nature or something else that could be both in any other context right but so you know sometimes used as used to refer to a capacity and maybe sometimes used to refer to an episodic mental state like you're empathizing right now but it's sort of being able to put yourself in the other person's shoes and kind of imagine their experience from their perspective you're probably not really imagining what it's like you're not imagining fully what it's really like but you're having an experience that is something like the experience that they're having but of course like when you empathize with someone who's in pain you're not like feeling a pain that's like the pain that they're feeling but you're sort of able to understand from the inside what that's like yeah okay so maybe this is that maybe puts it in context because a circumstance which I kind of have the same thing that I think you're describing is when it's not about people and maybe about numbers 6 billion people died in the Holocaust 6 million Jews were killed by Germans in the Holocaust that for me I definitely have a feeling I have the same kind of feeling that I did when you mentioned the case you know 2,000 years ago but it's not correlated to the number 6 million like I don't feel at 6 million more times it's purely abstract like I can't even comprehend the measure of feeling that you know that feeling of empathy magnified 6 million times so that's a case where it's like I know it's wrong and 6 million times more wrong but I can't feel that right yeah you know the famous quotation attributed to Stalin that a single death is a tragedy a million deaths is a statistic right you probably didn't actually say that you know most break quotes turn out to be apartment but it's still a good point and it's possible that you would feel more from a vivid story about a single person being killed hearing a news item about millions of people being killed but you still know that the millions of people being killed this works right right and I think this is related to the animal ethic issue I think most people have difficulty empathizing with beings who are not of their own species and you can understand evolutionary reasons for why that would be but even if you have trouble empathizing with them you should reflect and like you can still know that it's wrong right you can still know that it's wrong without the empathy just as you know that the killing of 6 million people is wrong yeah and I think just imagining the circumstances where a lot of these animals are in an infactory farm just supplant a cow for your house pet and I think people would have no difficulty having a very strong feeling of empathy for animals in that circumstance right yeah alright well that's a great conversation I appreciate it Dr. Huber and I think I'm going to have to invite you back on the show a third time to talk about consciousness because it's rare that there are substance dualists out there and so I I'm going to invite you back on the show so that there's a comrade I definitely want to take your brain on that too alright that was my conversation with Dr. Mike Huber who is a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado at Boulder as with pretty much any other topic you see these ideas come bundled together it's usually not just straight forward is eating meat good or bad we also have to incorporate ideas about free will because if we don't have free will well we can't choose and that kind of takes away the power of ethical statements we also have to get into nutrition is it the case that eating meat is really good for you or essential for you if your brain is starved from good animal fats and it results in people being more likely to be depressed well does that change the ethical position on eating meat you have to also import ideas about consciousness if it's the case that animals aren't conscious then of course it wouldn't be a problem eating them well then what is consciousness where does it come from how does it work so my opinion unless you really understand all these different areas and have working theories based on sound foundations trying to come up with a coherent answer to the problems of eating meat I think is a lost cause but I don't think that's unique to this particular topic and this is why in the content that I'm releasing the interviews that I'm having cover lots and lots of different topics try to create a rational world view but all pieces the puzzle together so that questions like this can be consistently answered but that's all for me today I hope you guys enjoy the rest of your week

Pushkin Press presents At Night All Blood is Black by David Diop, translated by Anna Moskvakis, performed by Dion Graham. We embraced each other by our names, one thing, our friendship. Who thinks betrays? Pascoquinha, Maria de Ponce, I am two simultaneous voices. One long, the other short. Shekhamadu Kani, ambiguous adventure. One, I know. I understand. I shouldn't have done it. I offer indiae, son of the old, old man. I understand. I shouldn't have. God's truth, now I know. My thoughts belong to me alone. I can think what I want, but I won't have. The ones I might have told my secret thoughts to, my brothers-in-arms, who will be left so disfigured, maimed, eviscerated, that God will be ashamed to see them show up in paradise and the devil will be happy to welcome them to hell, but never know who I really am. The survivors won't know a thing. My old father won't know, and my mother, if she is still of this world, will never find out. The weight of shame will not be added to the weight of my death. They won't imagine what I've thought, what I've done, the depths to which the world drove me. God's truth, the family honor will be spared, the honor of appearances. I know, I understand, I shouldn't have. In the world before, I wouldn't have dared. But in today's world, God's truth, I allow myself the unthinkable. My voice rises in my head to forbid me. My ancestors' voices and my parents' voices all extinguish themselves the minute I conceive of doing what, finally, I did. I know now, I swear to you, that I understood it fully the moment I realized that I could think anything. It happened like that. All of a sudden, without warning, it hit me brutally in the head, like a giant seed of war dropped from the metallic sky. The day Mademba Diop died, ah, Mademba Diop, my more than brother, took too long to die. It was very, very difficult. It wouldn't end. From dawn into evening, his guts in the air, his insides outside, like a sheep that has been ritually dismembered after the sacrifice, except Mademba was not yet dead, and already the insides of his body were outside. Sample complete. Ready to continue?

I welcome you all to this lecture in the course Introduction to Paninian Grammar. In this lecture, we continue to study the process of speech production and we study the features of the produced speech by this particular process. The source that we have been studying for some time now is the Paniniya Shiksha and the verses that are displayed on the slide. These verses can be arranged in terms of stages. In this manner, there are eight stages that are described in these verses. The first stage is Atma-Buddhya Sametya Arthaan. The second one is Mano-Yunkte-Vivaksaya. The third one is Manak-Kayagni-Mahanti. The fourth one is Sapre-Rayati-Marutam. The fifth one is Marutastu-Rasi-Charan-Mandram-Janayati-Svaram. The sixth one is Sodhirno-Murdhnyavi-Hato. The seventh one is Vaktram-Apaddi-Marutah. And the final and the eighth stage in this process is Varnaan-Janayate. We have also seen that the first two, Atma-Buddhya Sametya Arthaan, Mano-Yunkte-Vivaksaya, these two they form the part of the internal cognitive process and can be termed as or are in fact termed as the cause for this entire physical process described in the rest of the stages. So these two are more internal, they are the cause and it is in fact they are very important and that is why we have studied these two in quite a lot of detail which is not done in any of the traditional sources. And then from three onwards are the physical or the biological processes until the eighth stage arises when the sounds are actually produced. And then there are lots of internal factors playing key roles namely Maruta the wind and then the wind being propelled up hitting the roof of the wind pipe or the oral cavity and then entering the mouth and hitting on the various places and then generating the sounds, generating the speech. In this entire process there is one most important means which plays a very crucial role in the oral cavity that is recognized and described in the traditional sources and that is Jivha or Tang. They said Jivha is considered to be the Karana, Karana is traditionally interpreted as the most effective means. The such a means which when gets activated brings about the result of the performed action. So Jivha is such a important means in the process of speech production primarily because the tongue shapes the wind flow in the oral cavity by directing itself towards the places of articulation and we shall see which are those places recognized in the traditional sources and in the Paninian grammar. The tongue also touches, actually touches the places of articulation in oral cavity to produce sounds. One also lies down in order for the airflow to pass unhindered freely out of the oral cavity. The other important part is also the oral aperture that we shall study later on but Jivha is recognized as the most important means in the oral cavity. And then the sounds that are produced, the speech that is produced through this particular process described can be shown on this particular slide. On the left hand side we have Artha and this left hand side represents the first two stages namely Atma, Budhya, Sametya, Arthaan, Mano, Yunkte, Vivakshaya, these two stages and out of them as we have already studied Shabdakasha and Arthakasha, these are those two places, these are those two aspects. Now, they both are collected over here, they both are part of this, here we have not explicitly stated the Shabdakasha but you have actually stated the Arthakasha. Now, from this it is assumed that Shabdakasha also exists over here because of the want of space we have not mentioned Shabdakasha but it is assumed, very much assumed and when this all gets activated it actually generates these sounds, these speech signals mentioned here as Shabdha. So, from the Artha the Shabdha gets generated, so this is the Arthakasha, together with it there exists also a Shabdakasha and then it generates the entire process at the end of which these sounds, these signals are produced and they are all produced as one unit. So, that is why there is a square bracket at the end of each and every sentence and since these sentences are uttered in close proximity one after another there is also a broad domain in which these sentences are spoken, the broad context because of which the interrelation between the sentences will be clear for example, in the first sentence you have Ramo Vanam Garchati which means Ram goes to forest. Now the second sentence because the context demands the Arthakasha as well as the Shabdakasha demands that we do not need to utter the word Rama again in its place we can use a pronoun which is Saha, now this Saha will depend on this Ramaha because of the context now. So he then does the penance in the forest, so that is what is understood by this sentence and this he is nothing but Rama that is decided by this context. So the domain now of these five sentences will be also helpful in clearly understanding this sentence and this and such sentences and then thereby the communication process will take place. Now the sentences that are produced here and let me read the sentences for you first let me read the Artha which says Ram goes to a forest there he does penance then he slays Bali then he slays Ravana then he comes back these are the meanings associated with it and then the respective Shabdas are selected and then the process starts and finally as an output of this process we get the following Shabdas, following speech which is audible and that is Ramo Vanam Garchati, these are the five sentences which are audible which are the output of this entire process but quite a lot goes behind the curtain so to speak in producing these sentences and these speech symbols and we have actually studied what goes inside. So these sentences are produced as the output of this process of speech production and they are made up of the sounds, sound sequences, groups of sounds which are displayed on this particular slide in a structured manner. First of all we see a iu ru lu aiou as sounds separately written from the rest for some specific purpose we shall see why. Then there are some other sounds which are arranged in five columns and five rows format each column is named 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5 and each row is named R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 and then there are these consonants. This is the traditional sound inventory we had studied this when we learned how to form the pratyahara. Now let us study the importance of this arrangement and also certain principles on which this arrangement is made. So the features of these sounds they are extremely important from this point of view. For example there are these features which are stated in this particular verse from the panimiyashiksha it says, so there are four features stated here. The first one is swara, then kala, then sthana and prayatnanupradhana that is the last one. Now for our purpose we take kala the first one length kala are also called as pramana then we study the place of articulation namely the sthana then the prayatna which is described as effort of articulation and finally the pitch or tone which is also the swara. So these are the four very important features of these sounds and now let us study each one of them in detail. So let us look at the first feature of the sounds namely the length of the sound also known as pramana. So the length of the sound which is measured in terms of the time that it takes to produce is an important feature. The traditional measurement is called matra which can be also measured using the modern technological tools and it comes to a few seconds. Now using matra as a measurement to measure the length of the sound we can classify sounds in fact half a matra time is taken by certain sounds to get produced and they are in fact classified as a separate group of sounds and they are called consonants also known as hul in the Panayan grammatical terminology and we have already studied what hul is all the consonants. It is said about the consonants that they cannot be produced without the support of vowels of course in continuation you can produce them individually but when it is a sequence sequence of sounds produced to convey some meaning in the process of communication then you cannot have groups of consonants coming together without having a vowel in between to support them. There are some exceptions where you can have a cluster of consonants but that is only an exception which proves the rule that the consonants cannot be produced without the vowels support. Now if half a matra length is considered as the criterion to classify some sounds and call them consonants then one matra or more than one matra is also considered to be a measurement which using which sounds can be classified and these sounds are called vowels and in the traditional terminology Panayan terminology using the pratyahara we can call them ach. We have seen what ach is in contrast to what hul is all the vowels in the 14 sutras that we have studied which are used to form pratyahara. So this is how length plays a crucial role as far as the classification of sound as a feature. So here we can show in the traditional inventory why a e u rulu a i o o are separated from the rest primarily because they require one matra or more than one matra time to get produced and that is why they are called they are classified separately from the rest because the rest of them they take only half a matra time to get produced. This is the biggest difference and these consonants and these sounds which are called consonants and also known as hul or viyan jana in Sanskrit these sounds they cannot appear in sequence for a long space maximum 4 consonants can come together without getting a vowel in between but that is only rarely that is an exception otherwise a consonant cluster is generally a cluster of two consonants coming together without any vowel in between generally but otherwise as I said earlier this exception proves the rule that the consonants cannot appear on their own without the support of a vowel in Sanskrit. So these consonants so these consonants they are grouped together and that is the reason why they are all placed in one place separated from these vowels these are the ach or swara and these ones they are the consonants or hul or viyan jana and we have already read these sounds we have already read the sounds that correspond with these written symbols. So let us proceed further this is how the time plays an important role this is how the pramana plays an important role as a feature in classification of sounds. Then comes within the vowels the vowels can further be classified depending on the length or the color. So there are three groups that can be made one is called rasva the other one is called dirga and the third one is pluta rasva vowel is a short vowel and it takes only one matra time for its pronunciation whereas dirga vowel takes two matras and pluta vowel takes three matras for its pronunciation its production and that is why dirga is called long pluta is called prolated. So here are three further classifications of the vowels on the basis of the time that the sounds take for completion in the process of speech production. The next important feature of these sounds in the process of speech production is sthana. Sthana is the place of articulation and in the paniniya siksha eight such places of articulation are described and they are ashtav sthana ni varnanam urakh kandhas siras tatha jivvamul chadantash cha nasi ko shthau cha thalu cha. These eight places are uras, kandha, siras, jivvamul, nasika, osthau and thalu and let us see what these places of articulation are and which are the sounds which are produced through these places of articulation. First of all what is a place of articulation? So when the air flow comes into the oral cavity through the wind pipe this air flow or air stream then is shaped by the position of the tongue and then this tongue either touches certain places in the oral cavity or directs the wind stream, air stream towards these places and then these places are called the place of articulation. So points in the oral cavity where the air stream strikes and then is thrown out is called the place of articulation. They are as listed earlier kandha, thalu, mordhan, danta, osthau, jivvamul, nasika and uras and here are some sounds that are produced using these places of articulation. For example, kandha which is vilam and a is produced using kandha and also the all the sounds mentioned in the first row kha, kha, gha, gha, nga they are also produced using kandha as the place of articulation. Similarly, thalu palette is used to produce the vowel e and also amongst the consonants the second row ch ch j j j nga then comes mordhan and mordhan means roof of the oral cavity and amongst the vowel r is produced using mordhan similarly the third row namely th, th, d, d, na this is produced using mordhan then comes danta the tooth or teeth lu is produced using danta and the fourth row is also used is also produced using danta namely th, th, d, d and na, osthau both the lips they are used in producing the vowel u as well as the fifth row namely p, b, b, b, b and ma, jivvamula namely the root of the tongue is used to produce the sound jivvamula, nasika is used to produce the consonants in the fifth column they are nga, iya, ana, na and ma and finally uras through which is produced a special sound h. So, this is how the place of articulation works and classifies the sounds produced through the process of speech production. So, here is the traditional sound inventory highlighting the sthanas and you see now there are some additional sounds mentioned here a and her along with kha, gha, gha, gha they are produced using kantha similarly e, e and sh apart from ch, ch, ch, ch and here they are produced using the place talu within the oral cavity then from murdhan are produced r and r and t, th, d, d and na then from dantha, lu and l and t, th, d, d, na from osthau, u, v and p, p, b, b, b and ma these are the sounds that are produced from kantha talu two places of articulation coming together a and i are produced from kantha oshtau again two places of articulation coming together o and ow are produced. Now, let us look at the effort of articulation the effort of articulation stands for the quality of air stream or volume touching the wind pipe or vocal cord etc and these efforts of articulation are of two kinds abhyantara internal inside the oral cavity or by her external that is out of oral cavity in the wind pipe etc. So, there are four types of abhyantara prayatanas listed down sprishta meaning contact touch of the tongue with the place of articulation that is all row from 1 to 5 columns 1, c1 to c5 all of them they are having the effort abhyantara effort namely sprishta then ishath sprishta slight contact slight touch of the tongue with the place of articulation and we have here r, l and v produced from this produced using this effort of articulation then vibhruta openness of the oral aperture all the vowels except a short a is produced using this abhyantara prayatna and sheh sheh sir and her are also produced by this abhyantara prayatna the short a is produced by closed aperture so it is called sambhruta abhyantara prayatna using which a is produced once again we have the traditional sound inventory with the marks of the abhyantara prayatna the effort of articulation so all the vowels except a they are vibhruta and a is sambhruta all these 5 rows plus 5 columns they are called sprishta here a lover they are called ishath sprishta and sheh sheh sir they are also called vibhruta because there are abhyantara prayatna is vibhruta next we go to the effort of articulation which is bhyah prayatna and here there are a number of prayatnas that are listed down and on this slide we note them and also point the consonants which are having that particular bhyah prayatna generally these bhyah prayatnas are described of only these consonants so that is why they are listed here so for example swasa which is breath so heavy breath this is used to produce columns 1 and 2 and sheh sheh sir nada that is resonance this is the bhyah prayatna of columns 3 4 and 5 and her aghoshah voiceless this is the bhyah prayatna of column 1 and 2 and sheh sheh sir aghoshah that is voice this is once again the bhyah prayatna of columns 3 4 5 and her vibhara openness is the bhyah prayatna of columns 1 and 2 plus sheh sheh and sir sambhara is the bhyah prayatna closure of columns 3 4 and 5 and her in addition to them there is alpaprana less aspirate which is the bhyah prayatna of columns 1 3 and 5 and mahaprana more aspirate which is the bhyah prayatna of columns 2 and 4 plus sheh sheh sir and her let us look at the traditional sound inventory with the information of bhyah prayatnas included so here we have column 1 shwasa aghoshah vibhara column 2 nada aghoshah sambhara and mahaprana so this column is alpaprana we have not mentioned here for the sake of avoiding ambiguity but because of this ma which is mahaprana it should be clear that this is alpaprana this is mahaprana so let us look at the traditional sound inventory with the marks of the bhyah prayatna so here are the bhyah prayatna marked on the consonants so the first column is called shwasa aghoshah and vibhara having these bhyah prayatnas so second column has nada aghoshah sambhara and mahaprana in contrast with mahaprana c1 is alpaprana c3 is also alpaprana c5 is also alpaprana but we have not mentioned a again to avoid the ambiguity but the absence of that fourth feature mentioned here and the fourth feature mentioned here should make it clear that this is alpaprana only mahaprana is explicitly mentioned otherwise every consonant is alpaprana so shwasa aghoshah vibhara this is the bhyah prayatna of column 1 nada aghoshah sambhara and mahaprana is the bhyah prayatna of column 2 shwasa aghoshah vibhara again is the bhyah prayatna of column 3 nada aghoshah sambhara and mahaprana is again the bhyah prayatna of column 4 and shwasa aghoshah vibhara is once again the bhyah prayatna of column 5 Now, even the shesha-sha, they are said to possess the baiya-prayatna, swasa, aghosh, vivaara and maha-prayatna. And her is said to possess the baiya-prayatna, nadha, aghosh, samvara and maha-prayatna. So this is how the baiya-prayatnas are marked over sounds and sounds can be classified in accordance with the baiya-prayatna. And as we shall see later on, it is these baiya-prayatnas which will become very important when we decide about a substitute in place of a substituent. Now the last feature which is used to describe these sounds is pitch or tone, also known as swara, accent. And there are 3 accents noted, namely udattha, acute, anudattha, grave and swarita, namely circumflex and all these are the features of wobbles. These can never be the features of consonants in Sanskrit. To summarize, we studied the features of sounds produced by the process of speech production as described in the traditional sources of Paninian grammar. Let us take each individual sound and now study what features it possesses. These features serve as parameters for selection of a substitute in place of a substituent. We shall study this in the coming lectures. Thank you for your attention.

The Cavalcade of America presented by Dupont. Evening the Cavalcade of America brings you the story of a woman who went down into darkness that she might bring another into light. Anne Sullivan Macy takes rank among the foremost educators. But her work was a labor of love, and she found her reward in aiding her beloved pupil, Helen Keller, who knew her only as teacher. Many people who find the brief stories of chemistry on these broadcasts, interesting and instructive, have asked for more information about these achievements of science. To satisfy this demand, Dupont has prepared a 32-page booklet illustrated in color called Chemistry and You. You can obtain a copy free of charge by writing Radio Section Dupont, Wilmington, Delaware. If you haven't done so already, be sure to send for this fascinating booklet on how chemical research works to provide, as Dupont expresses it, better things for better living through chemistry. As an overture, Don Vorreys and the Dupont Cavalcade Orchestra play The Song is You from Jerome Kern's operetta, Music in the Air. Conditions there were hard, particularly for a child. Finally, an investigation was ordered by Dr. Samuel Gridley-Howell, chairman of the Board of Public Charities. And as our story opens, a committee is expected to visit the arms house. Young Annie Sullivan, tremendously excited, stumbles blindly about on the heels of Maggie Hogan, who is in charge of the war. Say the knife told you all I know, Annie. Now leave off asking, and let me get something done. But are you sure, Maggie, that today's the day? Today's the day, and Frank B. Sandbin's the man who's coming. And if there's a person under the stars that can help you, Annie, he's the one. You think he could really get me out of here? He could, that is tried. But where'd I go? I can't go back to the Sullivan's, Maggie. They'd only send me back here again. I can't work, being blind, can't read or do something. There's schools where folks like you can learn to read, and Mr. Sandbin knows all about them. He's on one of them, a board thing. You mean, you can learn to read and things without seeing? That's what I'm telling you. And if he can let this Mr. Sandbin know how much you want to learn too, maybe he'll do something for you. Don't be telling Annie that, Maggie. They'll never let Annie out of this place. And I've been trying to get out for years and years, and they won't let me out. They don't let our kind out, ever. I ain't your kind, Tilly. Am I, Maggie? No, Annie's different. If she can just get to Mr. Sandbin. Don't be alone, Annie. You couldn't do nothing if they was here right now. She could tell him right out that she wanted to get away from here, that she wanted to learn so she could understand things. Would I dare? Sure you dare, ain't you Irish? Oh, bless me. If they ain't here now, Annie is the committee, the visiting committee. And yes, Mr. Sandbin's with them. Annie, you've got your chance. She don't dare. And this gentleman is the ward where we care for the young people. Maggie, where is he? Where's Mr. Sandbin? He's right there. What a place. This is the worst ward of all. Now if you come this way, there are the living quarters, and the dining room is for you. How's he going? He's going toward the corridor. They'll be gone in a minute. He ain't got the nerve. I told you, they're going toward the dining room, Annie. It's your chance. Take it, girl. Run after them. Do anything. Only make him hear you. I've got to do it. I've got to do it. Maggie, I can't stay here in this place in the dark all my life. I've got to do it. Oh, lovely. Mr. Sandbin. Mr. Sandbin. Well, come over here and talk. What hails you? Come on, Mr. Sandbin. Well, now what do you want to say to me, little girl? Mr. Sandbin. Oliver left the Tewkesbury Arms House and entered Perkins' institution for the blind. She was 14 years old, an unkempt, excitable girl with no education, but eager to learn she learned quickly. Graduating as valedictorian of her class after an operation which partially restored her sight, we find Anne on the day following commencement exercises talking with Mrs. Sophia Hopkins, a maintenance at Perkins' institution who has been her friend and benefactor. There must be something for me to do now that I can see a little. That's going to be the great difficulty, Anne. You must be more careful. You can't strain your eyes or you will be blind again. I should... Oh, I know, I know, but there's so much to see to read and to learn, I forget about my eyes. Yes, but the doctor said... Please, I will try to be careful. Well, what would you like to do most, Anne? Teach. Teach some little child who can't see you here. A child like Laura Bridgeman was. Oh, that would be a wonderful thing to do. To take a mind that resolves blackness. Shut off from the whole world and let in the light. It would be very difficult. And there aren't any Laura Bridgeman. I suppose not, but I do want to go on studying if I can. Anne, seem to me I can never learn enough. Self, culture is a benefit, not only to the individual, but also to mankind. Remember that? You're quoting my own graduation speech right back at me. And don't forget the next line. And everyone who improves himself is aiding the progress of society. And everyone who stands still is holding it back. Well, Anne, you're not one who will ever hold it back. Opportunity came to Anne Sullivan almost immediately. From the town of Tuscumbia, the marshal of North Alabama and his wife had appealed to Dr. Alexander Graham Bell for a teacher for their seven-year-old daughter who had been blind and deaf since a severe illness when she was 19 months old. Dr. Bell, who was interested in methods of teaching the deaf, referred them to Perkins Institution. To his interest, Anne, after special preparation, was permitted to attempt the task. On March 3rd of the year, 1887, she arrived at the Tuscumbia Station. Are you, Miss Sullivan? Yes. Her carriage is right over there. And we've been meeting every train for two days. Oh, I'm so sorry. My tickets were all mixed up and the trains were late. I had the train to happen at some time. I was desperate. My wife's been so anxious to see you. Oh, this is Miss Sullivan, dear. Oh, Miss Sullivan, I just had to come down and meet you. I wanted to talk to you before you saw my little girl. I'm so glad you did. Did you? Did you have a bad trip? Well, yes. I had another operation on my eyes just a few days before I left Boston. Oh. The smoke and dust has inflamed them a great deal. Get in here, won't you? I'll put your bag down, Miss. You should be more careful. I know I should. You see, I was blind for a long time and if I lost my sight again, I... I believe I would die. We're ready, Jane. All right. Get up, Sally. Come on. I wanted to talk to you. Prepare you for meeting my little girl. You... You know all about her, of course. Only what you've written? She hasn't been able to see her hair since she was 19 months old. That's almost six years ago. I wouldn't believe it at first. I thought it was just the result of a fever. But we've taken it all the good doctors and... They say there's no hope. I'm so sorry. But they think she can be taught that she can be made on the thing. Oh, I'm sure that she can. Now she's just like some little wild animal. All shut up within herself and frantic. Is she well? Oh, yes, she's extremely well. I've tried not to make her keep quiet, but to better move and exercise. Well, she has the hard to handle. You see, she's so strong. I'm glad of that. She'll need her strength. But I think all to tell you now, she... Well, she doesn't know what discipline is. She does just as she pleases me. When she's refused anything, she fights. She won't sit at the table. She just feels the way around and grabs food off the plate. Sometimes she won't even be washed or dressed. Does she communicate with you at all? She has a few signs. We don't know how much she understands. But I'm sure she has a good mind of... Or if only we could reach it. Promise me you will try. Try very hard. Think of my poor baby. Living in that silence and the dark. Not even able to ask for help. It's too terrible. That's our house, Miss Sullivan. There she is in the doorway. There's been so much excitement about your coming, she's felt it. She's been simply wild for two days. Oh, my dear, look at her. She's all dirty again. Just look at her pinnacle on her hair. It doesn't matter. Let me help you out of the buggy, Miss Sullivan. Thank you. She's coming down the walk. You know, she always knows when I go away and when I return. Will she let me touch her? I don't think so. She doesn't like to be petted. Look at her face. She knows something unusual is happening. That's the only sign she makes. Wait, please. Will you let me go to her first alone? Helen. Helen, Helen Keller, you don't know it yet. But this is your teacher. Which was to absorb Anne Sullivan for the rest of her life began immediately. At first it was a struggle in which she seemed to be defeated. But she continued to spell into Helen's hand. And gradually as the object coupled with the word was presented again and again, she began to grasp the significance. And then came the historic day when the two of them came rushing to the house from the old pump and found Helen's father. They were both half hysterical with joy. Captain Keller, Captain Keller, it's happened, it's happened. Miss Sullivan, what's the matter? Are you ill? Is Helen? No, no, we're not ill, but it's happened. It's happened at last. What's happened? Helen, understand. Understand? Yes, look at her. Look at her. Did you ever see such joy, such wonder on a human face? Oh, we can go ahead now. We can do anything. I don't know what you mean. What has happened, Miss Sullivan? Oh, I'm so sorry to be emotional, but it was a surprise. Oh, what? Well, you see, it was this way, Captain Keller. Ever since I've been here, I've been trying to make Helen understand that everything has a name. I've spelled it out over and over into her hand. Yes, yes. I was spelling the word water. I've told it to her before when she washed. And just now, as she was holding her cup and I was pumping for her, I spelled it once more. And just as the cold water rushed into her cup, she seemed to grasp the idea. And her face lighted up and she spelled it over and over again. But that doesn't mean... Oh, it does. I know it does. She sat down on the ground, began patting things and asking what they were by touching them and stroking my arms. And I spelled them all into her hand. Well, you could tell by the way she looked that she understood. She's learned at least 20 new words. She's sitting there now, spelling into herself and so happy. Miss Sullivan, I hope you're right. Oh, of course I'm right. Captain Keller. She understands the language. She can't hear with her ears. But her mind isn't deaf anymore. She isn't shut off any longer. She can learn anything in the world. Into Helen Keller's hand, Anne Sullivan's fingers began immediately to speak so that she learned almost as a hearing child might. In a few years, she was ready for organized lessons. By that time, the world had heard and marveled. Helen and Anne went north to Boston from a student at Perkins Institution with Anne as her special teacher. This was followed by a period at a special school for the deaf in New York in an effort to develop Helen's voice. In 1900, we find Anne with Dr. Alexander Graham Bell would become deeply interested in them. And how is the work going, Anne? Very well. It's an excellent school. Helen's happy here. But I am afraid we shall never be able to make her voice a natural one. We'll probably be able to utter only unintelligible sounds. Well, Anne, you've already accomplished miracles. She had attempted to speak even before she came here, hadn't she? Oh, yes. And the time we spent on it wasn't wasted because it has given her another method of communication. You see, if she puts her thumb on your throat, her forefinger on your lips, and her middle finger on your nose, she can understand what you're saying. It's very valuable when she wants to communicate with someone who doesn't know the manual alphabet. You're doing a wonderful piece of work, Anne. Oh, Dr. Bell, I'm not. That's what worries me. I love Helen so much. It seems that I can't be separated from her, but she's getting beyond me. Beyond you? Yes. Well, she needs to go on and on. With my limited education, I'm... well, I'm afraid I'm not the person to work with her. I've known her since. She couldn't go on without you. Anne, you should write a paper on the subject and take the credit that belongs to you. Oh, Helen, time to be academic. Tell me, Anne, what are these great plans which Helen is hatching now? Dr. Bell, Helen wants to go to Harvard. Harvard? Oh, but that's impossible. Only men can go there. I know, but failing that, she set her heart on Radcliffe. Well, it's a new idea, but I don't see why not. Of course she isn't properly prepared. Her education has been good, but it hasn't been aimed at all at college entrance requirements. Well, that could be remedied. You too believe she should do it? I think Helen should set her own limitations, not have them set for her. She has a fine mind, ambition, courage, and you. But Anne, it'll be a great strain on you. Oh, I don't mind that. It'll mean almost endless research and study for you. Will your eyes stand it? They'll have to stand anything for Helen. Well, if we selected a special school and you were willing to bear the burden... Oh, it's no burden. I want her to do it. You can't imagine how much I want it. It's only that I must be sure that I am the one to help her. There can be no question about that. Then I'll start investigating preparatory schools tomorrow. Helen is so eager to get started. And you? Well, I'm wild to get started, too. It's a daring plan, but... Well, you've convinced me I have all I need to take her through. Your love for Helen? Yes, my love for Helen. And your faith in me. So through the next eight years, Anne, with her eyesight growing dimmer and dimmer, read volume after volume. In 1904, Helen graduated with honors from Radcliffe, and she and her teacher were ready to begin their life work. In spite of her marriage to John Macy, the brilliant author and critic, Anne refused to leave Helen, lecturing, lending their influence to the cause of the handicapped, the two women traveled throughout the country. Their efforts raised the sum which made possible the beginning of the work of the American Foundation for the Blind, whose activities are now conducted on a nationwide scale. It was only when her health broke completely that Anne Sullivan finally yielded to the necessity for a quieter life. One evening, following a lecture in San Francisco, she finds herself unable to face the visitors who were announced by their companion, Polly Thompson, in their dressing room. Polly, please ask them to leave. I simply cannot see anyone tonight. But they're asking for you. Well, they want to see Helen. You'll have to talk to them. I can't. Oh, you're tired, Anne. Too tired. This trip's too much for you. You must be more careful. How can I be more careful? I've tried not to keep Helen dependent on me. I've turned everything I could over to the others. I know. You've been wonderful. But you're not well, Anne, and I'm worried about your eyes. Yes, I'm worried about my eyes, too. Oh, we should take you back home. Anne, you don't like to lecture, really, do you? Well, no. Yet you always tell the story of Helen Keller as though you were relating it for the first time. You could tell it just as well. And I'm afraid you'll soon have to. Oh, I couldn't. You'll never take credit for anything. It's not only the way you tell the story. It's the way you speak of education, your theories of teaching. Who do you think was in the audience tonight? Oh, I couldn't guess. Dr. Montessori, the great Italian educator. Montessori? Yes. She's in the other room now with some friends. She wants to see you, Anne. Now may I open the door? Oh, yes, yes. Do come in. Miss Sullivan? Yes, Dr. Montessori. I am proud to greet you. You are a great teacher, Miss Sullivan. The educators make tribute to me. Call me a pioneer. I have but followed in your steps. It is you. You are the pioneer. Mrs. Macy died in October 1936 at the age of 70 in her home in Forrest Hills, Long Island. Her sight was gone and she was in pain during most of her last years. But her spirit was indomitable. Her courage as great as the day she left Tewkesbury Asylum. She hadn't proof laid down her life for a friend and she was richly rewarded in that that friend was Helen Keller. Miss Keller observes March 3rd, the day in 1887 when she met her beloved teacher as her sole birthday. With her, DuPont salutes Anne Sullivan Macy as one of the heroic figures in the cavalcade of America. This evening we are honored at this broadcast by the presence of Miss Helen Keller herself together with her devoted friend and companion, Miss Polly Thompson, the woman who has taken Anne Sullivan Macy's place at Helen Keller's side. Miss Keller has been following this broadcast with Miss Thompson's assistant. It is a pleasure first to introduce Miss Polly Thompson. I am deeply moved by this dramatic broadcast. It encourages me to feel that Anne Sullivan Macy's beacon shines upon my efforts to make the American Foundation for the Blind a tower of strength to her sightless fellows in this country. And now it is my privilege to present Miss Helen Keller. This noble and favored pomeragie, guardian and angel should warm other hearts to helpfulness that wouldn't be her true memorial. Thank you, Miss Keller. We're gratified that you feel this story of your teacher has been a memorial. Your inspiring life work is one of the noblest in our times. We are privileged to have had you as our guest on the cavalcade of America. The other day on a visit to the DuPont Company's Central Experimental Laboratories at Wilmington, the chemist guiding me said, this is the room where we do our micro-analysis. Well, that word had me stopped for a while. But here's how he explained it. Analysis means to separate anything into all its parts. And micro means small. Micro-analysis simply means doing the separating job in a very small way, using extremely small amounts of material. And when I say small, I mean tiny. This chemist showed me a sample as small as five milligrams or one five thousandth part of an ounce. It looked like a few specks of dust. I asked him, how in the world can you measure such a tiny quantity? He showed me a most delicate balance or weighing machine so finely adjusted that it can accurately measure one millionth of a gram. It was enclosed in a glass case and balanced on a knife edge of agate. The reading had to be done through a powerful magnifying glass. Nobody slams any doors in that room because vibration is a constant worry to the chemist using such a delicate instrument. As a precaution, he has the case on a heavy lead plate one inch thick with the lead plate resting on a sponge rubber cushion and the cushion in turn set on a stone slab. In spite of all this care, he had some trouble last summer with vibration that shook the scales. After searching high and low for days, he finally discovered the trouble in another room across the hallway of the building. Someone was running a defective ventilating fan. The fine scales are important, but a lot depends on how the material is handled too. By using heat, the sample is broken down into its chemical ingredients which are collected in glass tubes and carefully weighed. Before weighing, the chemist must first wipe the tubes with painstaking care without touching them with his hands because moisture or grease from his fingers would make the tubes way heavy on this delicate balance. Finally, when he's done his figuring, way out to six decimal places, he knows almost to an atom that tiniest unit of matter what the material contains. And it's widely important that the research chemist should know exactly what he has in his test tube at every stage of his experiments. This method of analysis permits the study of very small amounts of material and it's quick. Such infinite care and research helps make it possible for DuPont chemists to improve existing products and create entirely new ones, thus fulfilling their pledge better things for better living through chemistry. The story of America's great volunteer scout, William F. Cody, famed in the annals of our nation's history as Buffalo Bill, will be the subject of our broadcast when next week, at the same time, DuPont again presents the Cavalcade of America Columbia Broadcasting System.

A Vampire by Luigi Capuana This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, visit LibriVox.org. Recording by Aaron O'Rourke A Vampire by Luigi Capuana Translated by Aaron O'Rourke No, don't laugh, exclaimed Lailio Giorgi, interrupting himself. What do you mean don't laugh, replied Mungeri. I don't believe in ghosts. I didn't use to believe in them, and I didn't want to believe in them either, Giorgi responded. I've come to you precisely to get an explanation of certain facts which could destroy my happiness, facts that have already troubled my reason extraordinarily. Facts? You mean hallucinations. It means you're sick and you need to take care of yourself. Hallucinations, yes, are facts too, but what they represent can't be found outside of ourselves in reality. They are, to explain myself better, sensations that move from inside to the outside, a kind of projection from our organism. And so the eye sees that which it really does not see. The ear hears that which it really does not hear. Previous sensations often accumulated unknowingly reawaken inside us and organize themselves as in dreams. Why? How? We still don't know. And we dream, that is the correct expression, with our eyes open. You must distinguish. There are momentary rapid hallucinations which don't apply any kind of organic or psychic disorder. Then there are persistent ones, and then... But this isn't the case with you. Yes, mine and my wife's. You're not understanding. The hallucinations that lunatics have are what we scientists call persistent. I don't believe it's necessary to explain myself with examples. The fact then that both of you are suffering from the same hallucination and at the same time is a simple case of induction. It's probably you that are influencing your wife's nervous system. No, first it was her. Then that means that your nervous system is weaker or has greater receptiveness. Don't make such a face, my dear poet, at the sound of such horrible vocabulary which perhaps does not exist in your dictionaries. We find it comfortable and it serves us well. If you had let me speak, it's better not to stir certain things up. You wanted a scientific explanation? Well then, in the name of science, I tell you that for now there isn't any sort of explanation to give you. We're in the hypothesis stage. We make one each day. Today's isn't the same as yesterday's. Tomorrow's won't be the same as today's. You artists are so curious. When it benefits you, you derive science. You don't give due value to the trials, the studies, the hypotheses that allow science to progress. Then, if you have a case that interests you personally, you expect it to give you clear, precise, categorical answers. There are, unfortunately, scientists who lend themselves to this game, either through conviction or vanity. I am not one of these. Do you want me to tell you loud and clear? Science is the greatest proof of our ignorance. To calm you, I've spoken to you about hallucinations, inductions, receptiveness, words, my dear. The more I study, the more I despair of ever knowing anything for sure. It seems intentional. We scientists are still congratulating ourselves for having verified a law when slap effect shows up a discovery that disproves it with a backhanded slap. You must resign yourself and just let it go. What's happening to you and your wife and has happened to many others? It will pass. Is it that you care to know why and how it could have happened? Perhaps your dreams were you. If you would allow me to speak. Please speak since you want to burden yourself, but I tell you in advance that you'll make it worse. The only way to overcome certain impressions is to distract yourself, to impose stronger impressions over them, distancing yourself from the places that likely contributed to producing them. One devil drives out another. It's a very wise proverb. We've tried that. It was useless. The first phenomenon the initial manifestations happened in the country at our villa in Foscuilada. We ran away, but the same night that we arrived in the city, it's natural. What kind of distraction could your house have given you? You should have stayed away, stayed in hotels, a day here, a day there, run around all day going to churches, monuments, museums, theaters, and returned to the hotel at night, tired, dead tired. We did that too, but the two of you alone, I imagine, you should have found some friends to keep you company, a party. We did that. It was useless. Who knows what kind of party? Happy people. Egotists, you mean, and you found yourselves isolated among them, I understand. We took part in their happiness. Sincerely, we were carefree. But as soon as we were alone, we couldn't get them to sleep with us. But where did you sleep then? Now we don't understand whether you speak of hallucinations or just dreams. Enough with the hallucinations, with the dreams. We were awake, with our eyes wide open, with our senses and our spirits clear, like I am right now, trying to reason with you, and you insist on not allowing me. As you wish. I at least want to tell you the facts. I know them. I can imagine them. All of the scientific books are chock-full of them. There might be insignificant differences in the smallest details. They don't count. The essential nature of the phenomenon doesn't change. You don't even want to give me the satisfaction? A hundred times if it will make you happy. You're the type that loves to wallow in your misery. You almost want to drink it. It's stupid, excuse me. But if it makes you happy? Frankly, you seem as though you're afraid. Afraid of what? Wouldn't that be something? Afraid of having to change your opinion? I've told you I don't believe in ghosts. And what if, afterward, you were forced to believe in them? Okay, yes, that would annoy me. What do you want? This is what we scientists are. We are men, my dear. When our way of seeing, of judging, has taken a turn, the intellect refuses to remain faithful to the senses. Intelligence is a matter of habit, too. You're putting my back against the wall. Go ahead. Let's hear these famous facts. Oh! exclaimed Lailio Giorgi with a huge sigh. You were already aware of the unfortunate circumstances that forced me to seek my fortune in America. Louise's family opposed our marriage, like all families. And I'm not saying they were wrong. They, too, watched over the financial situation of he who hoped to become their daughter's husband. They didn't have faith in my talent. They even doubted that I was a poet. The one little volume of juvenile verses then published was my biggest disgrace. Not that I have published or written anything since then, but you yourself just now called me my dear poet. The label has been stuck to me ever since, almost as if it were written in indelible ink. Enough. They say there's a god for drunks and for children. They need to add, and one for poets, too, since I have to pass for a poet. Just look at how literary the lot of you are. We always begin with the egg. Don't get impatient. Listen. During the three years that I lived in Buenos Aires, I never heard from Louisa. An inheritance from an uncle I had never met dropped out of the sky. I returned to Europe, ran to London, and with two hundred thousand lira from the Bank of England flew here, where the saddest disappointment awaited me. Louisa had been married for six months, and I had loved her first. The poor thing had had to give in to the pressures of her family. I swear I wasn't far from doing something crazy. These details, you see, are not superfluous. I made the foolish mistake of writing her a hot-headed letter of reproach and mailed it to her. I hadn't foreseen that it might end up in her husband's hands. The next day he presented himself at my house. I understood immediately the enormity of my act and told myself to be calm. He was calm too. I've come to return your letter, he said. I opened the envelope by mistake, not in discretion, and it's good that it happened this way. I have been assured that you are a gentleman. I respect your pain, but I hope you don't wish to uselessly disturb my family's peace. If you can find the strength to reflect on it, you will see that no one meant to cause you harm on purpose. We can't escape certain destinies in life. You understand by now what your fate is. I tell you then, without arrogance, that I will defend my domestic happiness at any cost. He had gone pale while speaking, and his voice shook. Please forgive my imprudence, I answered, and to reassure you, I tell you that I will leave for Paris tomorrow. I must have been even paler than him. The words left my mouth with difficulty. He held out his hand to me, I shook it, and I kept my word. Six months later I received a telegram from Louisa. I am a widow, I still love you, and you? Her husband had been dead for two months. That's how the world is. One man's misfortune is another man's happiness. That's what I selfishly thought too, but it's not always true. I felt like I touched the sky on the night of my wedding and during the first few months of our marriage. We avoided, by tacit agreement, speaking of him. Louisa had destroyed all traces of him, not out of ingratitude since he, fooling himself that he was love, would have done anything to make her happy. But because she feared that even a shadow of a memory, however insignificant, might upset me, she guessed right. At certain times the thought that the body of my darling had been in full possession, however legitimate, of another, wrung my heart so that I shuddered from head to toe. I forced myself to hide it from her. Feminine intuition, however, often clouded Louisa's beautiful eyes with melancholy. And so I saw her beaming with joy when she was sure of being able to announce that the fruit of our love was beating within her breast. I remember it perfectly. We were drinking coffee. I was standing. She was sitting with a posture of sweet weariness. It was the first time a nod to the past escaped her lips. I'm so happy, she exclaimed, that this has only now happened. I heard a loud knock at the door as if someone were beating at it with his fist. We were startled. I ran to see, suspecting the heedlessness of a maid or servant. There was no one in the room next door. A crash, perhaps produced by the loss of heat in the wood, due to the season, would have sounded like the knock of a fist. I gave such an explanation, that Louisa was very troubled, but I wasn't convinced. A strong sense of embarrassment, I don't know how else to define it, had gotten a hold of me, and I couldn't succeed in hiding it. We waited for a few minutes. Nothing. From then on, however, I noticed that Louisa avoided being alone. The disturbance persisted in her, although she didn't dare confess it to me, nor did I to ask her. And so, now I understand, you influenced each other unknowingly. Not at all. A few days later, I laughed at the foolish impression, and I attributed Louisa's interesting state to the excess of nervous excitement in her actions. Then she seemed to calm down, too. She gave birth. After a few months, however, I realized that that sense of fear, even terror, had returned. One night, all of a sudden, she clutched at me, icy, trembling. What's wrong? Are you feeling sick? I asked her anxiously. I'm scared. Didn't you hear that? No. You didn't hear that? She asked the following night. No. Instead, this time, I heard the faint sound of footsteps in the room, up and down, around the bed. I said no, so as not to frighten her further. I lifted my head. Looked. A mouse must have gotten into the room. I'm scared. I'm scared. For many nights, at exactly midnight, the same shuffling, that inexplicable, coming and going, up and down, of an invisible person around the bed, we expected it. And her heated fantasies did the rest. You know me well. I'm not a man who excites easily. I was good, indeed, for Louisa. I tried giving factual explanations. Echoes, reverberations of faraway sounds, idiosyncrasies in the construction of the house that made it strangely resonant. We returned to the city. But the next night, the phenomenon reproduced itself with greater force. Twice the foot of the bed was shaken violently. I jumped down to better observe it. Louisa curled up under the blanket, stammered. It's him. It's him. Excuse me, when Jetty interrupted. I'm not saying this to put any hard feelings between you and your wife. But I wouldn't marry a widow for all the gold in the world. Some part of the dead husband always remains, despite everything, inside the widow. Not, as your wife believes, the ghost of the dead man. It's that him. That is, that sensation. That impression of him that remains indelibly inside her body. We're talking basic physiology. It could be, but, responded Leilio Georgi, what does your physiology have to do with me? You've been influenced. Now it's clear, clear as day. Only influenced at night, at a fixed hour? Expect into tension, oh, you're a prodigy. And how come the phenomenon changes each time with unexpected details when my imagination doesn't work to that extent? So it seems to you, we're not always aware of what goes on inside us, the unconscious. Hey, hey, you're a prodigy again. Let me continue. Save your explanations until I've finished. Note that in the morning, during the day, we thought over the facts with relative tranquility. Louisa reminded me of what she had heard. To compare it with what I had heard, precisely to convince ourselves, as you say, that our over-excited imaginations had invented it, that awful joke. It turned out that we had heard the same identical sound of footsteps in the same direction. Now slow, now fast. The same shaking at the foot of the bed, the same tug at the blankets, and under the same circumstances. That is, when I tried, with a caress or a kiss to soothe her fear, to keep her from crying out, it's him, it's him. It was almost as if that kiss, that caress, were provoking anger in the invisible person. Then, one night, Louisa clutching her neck, bringing her lips to my ear, whispered in a tone of voice that startled me. He spoke. What did he say? I couldn't hear well. Did you hear it? He said, you're mine. And even as I held her tightly to my chest, I could feel that Louisa's arms were being pulled back violently by two powerful hands. And they might have had to yield despite Louisa's resistance. What resistance could she put up if it was she herself shaking that way without being aware of it? All right, but I felt an obstruction too. Someone interfering between me and her. Someone who wanted to obstruct at all costs contact between me and her. I saw my wife thrown backwards, she was shoved. Since Louisa wanted to stay up because the baby was sleeping the cradle next to the bed and we had heard the bars that the cradle hung from creaking and had seen the cradle rocking and wobbling and the covers go flying across the room from there. That wasn't a hallucination. We gathered the covers, Louisa trembling put them back in place but not long after they flew into the air again and the baby, roused by the shaking, cried. Three nights ago it got worse. Louisa seemed overpowered by his evil charm. She no longer heard me. If I called for her she didn't realize that I was in front of her. She talked to him and from her response I understood what he was saying. Louisa, you're a kind of your dead. Oh, no, no. How can you think it? Me poison you? To rid myself of you? How shameful! And the baby, what fault is it of his? You're suffering? I'll pray for you. I'll have masses said. You don't want masses? You want me? But how? You're dead. All of a sudden, Louisa recomposed herself. "'Did you hear that?' she said to me. "'They're accusing me of poisoning him. You don't believe it. You wouldn't think me capable. Oh, God! And what will we do about the baby? He'll kill him. Did you hear him?' I hadn't heard anything, but I understood perfectly well that Louisa wasn't crazy. She wasn't delirious. She cried, taking the baby out of the cradle and holding it very tightly to protect it from his evil. What will we do? What will we do?' But the baby was fine. This should have calmed you down. What do you want? Even the most solid-headed person can't witness something of that nature without being shaken. I'm not superstitious, but neither am I a free thinker. I'm the type that either believes or doesn't believe, the type that isn't interested in religious matters, that I don't have the time or the desire. But in my situation, and under the influence of my wife's words, I'll have masses said for you, naturally I thought of having a priest intervene. You had an exorcism? No, but I hadn't blessed the house with lots of holy water scattered around to make an impression on poor Louisa's imagination, too, as if it were a case of exaggerated imagination of upset nerves. Louisa is a believer. You laugh, but I'd like to have seen you in my shoes. And the holy water? Useless, as if it hadn't been used. It wasn't a bad idea, at times science, too, resorts to similar methods in cases of nervous illnesses. We had a case of someone who believed his nose had grown enormously long. The doctor pretended to operate on him, with all the instruments, tying up of veins, bandages, and the patient healed. The holy water, instead, made it worse. The next night, oh, I feel a shudder just thinking about it. Now all of his hatred was directed towards the baby. How to protect him? Sue and Louisa saw, or thought she saw. She saw, my friend, she saw. I saw, too, almost. Since my wife couldn't get any closer to the cradle, a strange force blocked her. I trembled at the sight of her, with her arms desolately reaching towards the cradle, while he, Louisa told me, stooped over the sleeping baby, was doing something terrible, mouth to mouth, as if he were sucking out its life, its blood. Three nights in a row, the same nefarious operation was repeated, and the baby, our dear little boy. He was no longer recognizable. Little white, when he had been such a rosy child, as if he had really sucked out its blood, so incredibly wasted in just three nights. Is this my imagination? Is it my imagination? You come and look. Then it must be. On J.D. was pensive for a few minutes, his head down, knitting his eyebrows, a somewhat sarcastic, somewhat compassionate smile had appeared on his lips, while Lailio Giorgi spoke, but it had suddenly disappeared. Then he raised his eyes, looked at his friend, who was watching him and anxiously waiting and repeated. Then it must be. Listen closely. I'm not going to explain anything to you, because I'm convinced that I can't explain anything. It's hard to be any more frank than this. But I can give you advice, empirical advice, that might make you laugh, especially coming from me. Use it how you wish. I'll follow it today, right away. It will take a few days, for several steps are required. I'll help you get through them as quickly as possible. I don't doubt the things that you've told me. I must add that, while science is reluctant to get involved with phenomena of such a nature, it has for a while now been less contemptuous than in the past. It is trying to restore these things to the realm of natural phenomena. For science nothing else exists outside of the material world. Ghosts. Science leads ghosts to the believers, the mystics, and those imaginative people that today we call spiritualists. For science only the body is real, this structure of flesh and bone that makes up an individual and which disintegrates upon his death, resolving itself into the chemical elements that make up life and thought. Desintegrated. But soon the question is reduced, according to some, to knowing whether putrefaction, the disintegration of atoms, or better their organic function, stops instantaneously upon death, a nulling individuality ipso facto, or whether it endures, according to circumstances, for shorter or longer time after death. You begin to suspect. And on this point science would find itself in agreement with popular belief. For the past three years I have been studying the folk remedies of old women, peasants, to explain to myself what their value is. Quite often they heal poorly what science doesn't know how to heal. Do you know what my opinion is today? These folk remedies are the remains, the fragments, of an ancient secret science and, more likely, of the instincts that animals are proven to have. From the beginning, when man was much closer to beasts than he is now, even he deduced the therapeutic value of certain herbs, and their use has perpetuated, passed down from generation to generation, as with the beasts. They still operate by instinct. In man, with the development of his faculties, this prudent virtue became obscured. But the tradition persists all the same. These old women who are more firmly attached to the practice have retained some tips from natural medicine, and I think science should be paying attention to this fact, because in every superstition hides something that is not just a deceptive observation of ignorance. Please excuse my long digression. Some scientists now admit, that is, with the apparent death of the individual, the functioning of individual existence doesn't really cease until all the elements have completely disintegrated. Popular superstition, for this is the word we use, has already defined it in part with its belief in vampires, and it had to find the remedy. Vampires would have a more persistent individuality than others in rare cases, yes, but it's possible even without admitting the immortality of the soul, of the spirit. Don't look at me like that. It's a fact, and not so uncommon, that so-called popular superstition, or better said primitive divination could find itself in agreement with science. Do you know what the defense against the evil actions of vampires is, these persistent individualities who believe they can prolong their existence by sucking the blood, or vital essence, from healthy people? To accelerate the destruction of their bodies. In the places where this happens, the old women, the peasants, run to the cemetery, dig up the corpse, and burn it. It's proven then that the vampire has really died, and in fact the phenomenon ceases. You say that you're child. I don't even see him. He's not recognizable anymore. Louisa is mad with pain and fear. I feel like I might go mad myself, or even be possessed by that diabolical suspect. But in vain I tell myself it's not true, it can't be true. In vain I try to comfort myself, thinking, and what if it were true? That's a proof of love. She poisoned him for you. In vain. I don't know, I'm sick of defending myself from a living repugnance, from this heartbreakingly violent distancing. Another one of his evil acts. He insists on reproach. I understand it from Louisa's responses, when he had her under his horrid spell, and the poor thing protested, poison you? Me? How can you think it? Oh, we can't go on, my friend. For months and months we've withstood this torment, without saying a word to anyone but for fear of being laughed at by unscrupulous friends. You are the first person that I've had the courage to confide in, out of desperation, to seek advice, a way out. And still we would have patiently withstood everything, fooling ourselves that such strange phenomena couldn't go on for so long, if our little child weren't now in danger. You must burn the corpse. It's an experiment that interests me, not just as a friend, but as a scientist. Your wife, although no longer a widow, will be easily granted permission. I will help you in matters regarding the authorities. And I'm not ashamed for science, of which I am a poor lover. Science doesn't lose any dignity when it runs to folk wisdom, turning superstition into its prize, if you can then prove that it is only superstition in appearance. Then science will be inspired to try new research, to discover unexpected truths. Science must be modest, good, while continuing its heritage of facts and truths. You must burn the corpse. I'm telling you quite seriously, added Mojedi, reading the doubt in his friend's eyes of being treated by old women or ignorant people. And the baby, meanwhile, exclaimed Leilio Giorgi, wringing his hands. One night I felt a surge of anger, I hurled myself against him, following the direction in which Louisa was looking, as if he were a person that I could grab and choke. I hurled myself against him, crying, go away, go away, you devil. But after a few steps I was stopped, paralyzed, nailed in place, at a distance, with the words dying in my throat, unable even to translate themselves into an indistinct moan. You can't believe, you can't imagine. If you would allow me to keep you company tonight. There, you asked me in such a suspicious tone. You're mistaken. Maybe it will make it worse. I feel that your presence might irritate him more, like having the house blessed. No, not tonight. I'll come to see you tomorrow. And the next day he returned so frightened, so defeated, that Mojedi entertained certain doubts about the integrity of his friend's mental faculties. He knows, stammered Leilio Giorgi as soon as he entered the study. Ah, what a hellish night. Louisa heard him cursing, shouting, threatening, terrible punishments if we dare. All the more reason that we must dare, replied Mojedi. If he would see in that cradle shaking, so hard that I don't even know how the baby didn't fall to the ground, Louisa was forced to get down on her knees, invoking his pity, crying to him. Yes, I'll be yours, all yours, but spare this innocent baby. And at that moment it seemed that my every tie with her was broken, that she was no longer really mine but his, his. Calm down. We will win. Calm down. I'd like to be with you tonight. Mojedi went with a conviction that his presence would prevent the phenomenon from taking place. He thought, it nearly always works this way. These unknown forces are neutralized by indifferent, foreign forces. It nearly always works this way. How? Why? One day certainly we'll know. We need to observe it, to study it. And in the early hours of the night it happened just like you'd thought it would. Louisa turned her frightened eyes around the room, pricked up her ears anxiously. Nothing. The cradle remained motionless. The baby, quite pale and thin, slept calmly. Lailio Giorgi, holding back his agitation with difficulty, looked now at his wife, now at Mojedi, who was smiling, satisfied. Meanwhile, they discussed things that, despite their preoccupation, managed now and then to distract them. Mojedi had begun to tell the story of a very entertaining trip he had taken. A good speaker, free of any affectation of scientific gravity, he intended to divert their attention, and in the meantime to keep an eye on them, in order to take note of all the phases of the phenomenon in case it should ever repeat itself. And he had already begun to persuade himself that his intervention had been beneficial. Then, just as he had turned his gaze towards the cradle, he noticed it move lightly, in a way that could not have been caused by any of them, since Louisa and Lailio were seated far from the cradle. He couldn't help but pause and be noticed, and so Louisa and Lailio leapt to their feet. The movement grew stronger by degrees, and when Louisa turned to look, where Mojedi's eyes were involuntarily fixed, the cradle was rocking and jerking. There he is, she cried. Oh God, my poor little son! She went to run, but she couldn't, and she fell upside down on the couch where she had been sitting. Pale, her entire body shaking, with her eyes open wide and her pupils motionless, she stammered something that gurgled in her throat but didn't take the form of words, and seemed as if it would suffocate her. It's nothing, said Mojedi, having stood up, squeezing Lailio's hand, which had come towards him in vivid terror, almost in defense. Louisa at first stiffened, shook even more violently, and then suddenly seemed to return to her ordinary state, except that her attention was fully directed towards watching something that the other two didn't see, towards listening to words that they didn't hear, the meaning of which they deduced through her responses. Why do you say that I want to keep hurting you? I've prayed for you. I've had masses said for you. But you can't and all. You're dead. You're not dead? Then why did you accuse me of poisoning you? Agreement with him? Oh. He promised you yes, and he kept it. Pretend? We planned it all along? He sent me the poison? It's absurd. You must not believe that if it's true that the dead can see the truth. All right. I won't consider you dead. I won't repeat it again. It's gone into a spontaneous trance, said Mungeri, into Leileo's ear. Allow me. Taking hold of her thumbs, after a few minutes he called out in a loud voice, Madam. On hearing the deep, annoyed, robust, and masculine voice with which she responded, Mungeri jumped back. Something in Louisa had risen from the grave, with such a darkened face, with such hardness in her features that she seemed another person. The special beauty of her physiognomy, so good, gentle, almost virginal, that came from the sweet gaze of her beautiful blue eyes and the light smile that roamed her lips like a delicate pulse had completely disappeared. What do you want? Why are you meddling? Mungeri regained self-control almost immediately. His habitual scientist mistrust made him suspect that he too must have felt by induction. By consent of his nervous system, the influence of the strong, hallowed sanatory state of those two. As if he had seemed to see the cradle rocking and jerking, which he could see quite well was now still, with the baby inside quietly sleeping, now that his attention was drawn from the extraordinary phenomenon of the ghost personification. He approached, with a sense of spite against himself for that backwards jump at the sound of the rough voice that had nearly run him over, and imperiously responded, Stop it, I order you. He had put such force of will into his expression that the command should have asserted its authority over the woman's nervous excitement, should have overcome it, he thought. The long and sardonic laugh that immediately replied to I order you shook him, made him hesitate for an instant. Stop it, I order you, he responded with greater force. Ah! Ah! You want to be the third. Poison him, too? You lie. Wickedly. Mungeri didn't have to restrain himself from responding like with a living person. In the already slightly disturbed lucidity of his mind, not withstanding the efforts he made to retain an attentive and impartial observer, all of a sudden became very upset when he felt too blows to his back by an invisible hand, and in the same instant he saw a gray, semi-transparent hand appear in front of the light, almost made of smoke, that contracted and relaxed its fingers rapidly, growing thinner as though the heat of the candle's flame were making it evaporate. Do you see? Do you see? Georgie asked him. There were tears in his voice. Suddenly the phenomenon stopped. Louisa woke up from her trance, almost as if she were waking from a natural dream, and looked around the room, questioning her husband and Mungeri with a brief nod of her head. Laylio and Mungeri questioned themselves, in turn, bewildered by the sense of serenity, or better liberation that eased their breathing and returned their heartbeats to normal. No one dared to speak. Only a faint cry from the baby made them run anxiously towards the cradle. The baby wailed and wailed, struggling under the oppression of something that appeared to aggravate his mouth and impede his cries. Suddenly this phenomenon stopped, too, and nothing more happened. In the morning as he was leaving, Mungeri was thinking not only that scientists were wrong not to want to study up close those cases that coincided with popular superstition, but he repeated to himself, in his mind, what he had told his friend two days ago. I wouldn't marry a widow for all the gold in the world. As a scientist, he had acted admirably, leading the experiment until the end without minding at all if, in case, burning the corpse of Louisa's first husband hadn't worked, his reputation with his colleagues and with the public had to suffer. Although the experiment had confirmed the popular belief, and since the day that the remains of the corpse had been burned, the phenomena had completely ceased to the great relief of Laylio Giorgi and his good wife Louisa. In its relation not yet published, Mungeri had proved unable to be entirely sincere. He hadn't said, these are the facts and this is the result of the remedy. The claims of popular superstition were right in their negation of science. The vampire had died completely as soon as his corpse was burned. No, he had placed many ifs, many buts in the smallest circumstances, had shown off the words hallucination, suggestion, nervous influence many times in the scientific reasoning. In order to confirm what he had confessed previously, that is, that even intelligence is a matter of habit and that having to change his opinion had annoyed him. Most curious is that he did not prove to be more coherent as a man. He who had proclaimed, I wouldn't marry a widow for all the gold in the world, later married one for much less, a sixty thousand lira a dowry, and to Laylio Giorgi who had naively said, but how, you, he replied, right now not two atoms of the first husband's corpse exist. He's been dead six years. Without realizing that in saying this, he was contradicting the author of the scientific memoir and alleged case of vampirism. That is, he himself.

PrivateKT is a novel knowledge transfer method that allows for efficient and secure knowledge transfer in federated learning. It utilizes a small public dataset to maximize the performance of federated learning while maintaining privacy. The method was tested on three different datasets and showed significant improvements over existing federated learning methods. This suggests that PrivateKT could provide a viable solution for knowledge transfer in machine intelligence systems. This article was authored by Daoqi, Fangjao Wu, Chuhan Wu, and others.

Yeah, you're not so much committing to the darkness. You're really committing to the light. And the unconscious mind is just filled with so much darkness that it just has to be exposed. What Jesus says in the Course is you have to go through the darkness to the light. So to see a dark tunnel, or a tunnel that sometimes you wonder, is there a light at the end of the tunnel? And even with the two people that were instrumental in bringing the Course into the world, so to speak, Helen Shockman and Bill Fetcher, they were in a working relationship, but it was very testy. In fact, they worked in a Colombian Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City and it was a testy environment and it was a testy relationship and it stayed that way for some time until Bill moved to California. So it was one of those kind of hanging in there kind of experiences. And I mean, I think that part of the sense, there has to be a sense of attraction. There has to be some kind of a sense of a shared purpose for these kind of sustained relationships. Even if you're going through the darkness to the light, there has to be a great deal that you share. The two people are not even conscious of how important it is that they be together and hang in there and work through things. It's kind of like these assignments come and it can be very intense, but if one or the other just pops out of the assignment, the lesson will be repeated. If you have that Carly Simon song, if you're willing to play the game, it will be coming around again. So it's going to come around, it's going to come around anyway. It's just that sometimes there's a part in the teacher's manual where Jesus talks about lifelong partners, lifelong relationships, and he says the teaching-learning balance is actually perfect. And if the two decide the perfect lesson is laid before them and can be learned, very, very hopeful, very optimistic, very mysterious, only place in A Course in Miracles he talks about perfect teaching-learning balance. Can you give me more on that perfect teaching-learning balance? But it's just, we could say that spiritually the two have been drawn together and because of this teaching-learning balance, there's going to be lots and lots and lots of opportunities to really get the lesson. There's not like a sense of in-balance where one is more ready than the other. Both are really ready and it's worth hanging in when that happens. Are you also saying then that if you concomit to a relationship that your ego is in the way? No, it's like I was saying just before that, that the Spirit is going to have to use assignments to build a sense of commitment towards the correction or the escape hatch. But those assignments can come in many ways. So for many people, they don't feel intuitively guided or drawn into a relationship. They have plenty of relationships in their daily life but not what the world would call a romantic relationship or whatever. But there's plenty of mirroring, plenty of opportunities going on. But they may be involved in other things like yoga or so many things. Even getting a degree in university or learning skills and whatever. There's so many different assignments that the Spirit can use to work on that sense of commitment. Even a diet is a commitment. And all of those can be actually used by the Spirit as part of a mind training to start to align the mind with the Spirit. So it's not saying that it's necessary that you have a committed or significant other relationship. But the Spirit can use that as well as many other assignments. There's definitely two different purposes. One is towards unification and forgiveness and the learnings of oneness. And then the ego purposes. It has many judgments, it has many preferences. People talk about even the dating game. Comparing and contrasting like we're going grocery shopping with the dating services and so on and so forth. And the Spirit can use those things. In other words, the Spirit uses what the ego made. The ego made in fear and hate. But even those preference patterns that are egoic can be used by the Spirit in its progression towards waking up. So yeah, there's certain things that when people come together there's definitely for people to come together in a relationship. There's attractions going on there. And that can be used by the Spirit because it's going to be evolving more into things that we know relationships. Once you get bored and frustrated, you ask for another way. Yeah, you ask for another way. You really want a sense of connection. You want a sense of trust, honesty, openness. A sense of reverence that's there. The things that people really, the values that reflect eternity, those are the things that the relationship is destined ultimately to grow into. And the ego is kind of like, it's so impetuous, it's so impulsive, it wants immediate gratification on its own terms. I describe the ego's purposes for relationships as kind of like Dixie cups. There's little cups in bathrooms and little paper cups. Just take a little drink and throw it away. Take another little sip and throw it away. There's no sense of depth, continuity of really hanging in there in a commitment to face the shadow. As the shadow comes up and release the shadow, it's more just motivated by the shadow for immediate gratification and then it's on to the next sip. So you can start to get a sense that, for example, the ego uses the body for pride, for pleasure and for attack. And the spirit only uses the body for one purpose and that is it's a communication device. And it's a communication device to help the mind regain the awareness that true communication is really, I call it vertical, it's really with the creator, with your intuition, with the spirit. But because the mind has fallen asleep and it believes in separation, it believes in words and so on and so forth, then the spirit has to use what the ego made to train the mind to come back to what I call communion. That's the point of spirit-inspired communication is to actually come back beyond the interpersonal communication, back to that communion with the one. And it's like the more that you practice this, the more that you don't hold anything back and let the spirit just pour through you and express through you and express through you, you start to have this experience like you're talking to yourself, like you're just teaching yourself with everything, like there's nobody else in the universe but you. Like that's what the matrix is about, you know, you are the one. Literally, you know, it's one mind but that one mind has been forgotten and it seems to have fragmented off into bits and pieces that only know the little self, the personality self. So, yeah, it's beautiful how you just keep at it and you keep at it and keep at it and then it just kind of, it channelizes everything into one experience and that's the whole purpose of life is to have that connected experience. This experience, would you say then that because everything is a mirror, then the holy relationship is really with oneself then, isn't it? It's not really with the mirror, it's just the distractions. But they're the learning message, right? Yeah, ultimately the course came and it is written on the level where it can be most helpful, which is written for the ego. The spirit doesn't need a book, you know, it just is. The ego is a symbol of consciousness, fragmented consciousness and that fragmented consciousness needs to be unified through training. And we've all grown up hearing about raising consciousness and raising the vibrations and so on and so forth. So, in that sense, the spirit is working with the ego, is training the ego little by little by little to a leaping off point where you can transcend the ego entirely. Basically, the world and the people in the world will reflect the judgments, the opinions, the attack thoughts and so on and so forth. And then as you start to release those attack thoughts and those grievances and judgments, it's like the world starts to light up. I mean, you just start to get more and more and more witnesses, loving, loving reflections. In my own life, I went from being very shy and kind of a loner and I was lucky by two or three friends. And now I go around the world, I just have so many deep intimate friends that those are just reflections. And then it just takes you more and more to a point to what your first question was about where you start to realize that really it's about opening to this experience of being the one or the one mind. And we could say the whole not only transcends the sum of the parts, but the whole is real and the parts are not. So that's really an answer to your question that the whole relationship is described in the book as if there's two partners working towards this experience of holiness and holy relationship. But actually you have an experience of just being all-encompassing. Like there's a line in the Course of Miracles where Jesus says, mind reaches to itself, it does not go out. Within itself is everything, you within it, and it within you. It's just like, wow, the whole sense is just very all-encompassing. And that's the goal of opening to the mystical experience and true holiness is really, we could say, an experience of singularity, of pure oneness.

The final item of business this evening is a member's business debate on motion 7514, in the name of Michael Marra, on the final report of the independent oversight and assurance group on Tayside's mental health services. The debate will be concluded without any questions being put, as ever. I invite members wishing to participate to press the request-to-speak buttons now or as soon as possible. I invite Mr Marra to open the debate for around seven minutes, please. Thank you, Presiding Officer, and thank you to members for the opportunity to bring this important issue to the chamber. My thanks also to the independent oversight and assurance group appointed by Scottish ministers for the report that we are here to discuss. Thanks also to the stakeholder participation group for their work over the past few years and for finding the time to meet me in advance of the debate. In the last five years, 345 people in Tayside have lost their lives to suicide, 158 of those in my home city of Dundee. 345 lives lost, 345 families thrown into turmoil and grief, families who needed better of their services, their government and all of us. These deaths speak to a mental health service in crisis, and for every soul lost, dozens more were hanging on by their fingernails. It is in the context of that crisis that an independent inquiry into mental health services in Tayside led by Dr David Strang was launched. It reported in early 2020, Presiding Officer, with 49 separate recommendations for Tayside and 2 for the Scottish Government. Dr Strang went on to publish a progress report in 2021 that, damningly, found that there remained a long way to go to deliver the improvements that are required, and very significantly noted concerns about the level of confidence in the accuracy of the reported progress. I will return to this later. Now we have yet another report in front of us from another group of experts. They have again noted some improvements and again identified the urgent work still needing done. The pace of change is far too slow. All urgency is missing. I raised the delayed discharge of my constituent Ryan Caswell with the First Minister eight months ago here in the Chamber of Parliament. The First Minister called his situation unacceptable. There has been no change. Ryan has been living in Carstew hospital for three years. Ryan has complex care needs, autism spectrum disorder and learning disabilities. In three years, his desperate parents have been unable to find suitable accommodation or care packages. For three years, he has been forced to stay in a hospital that is completely inappropriate for his needs, and for three years, his parents have worried day and night about his care, his safety and his future. There are dozens of people in Tayside waiting for the board, this Government and this minister to get their acts together and deliver the care that they need, the care that we all promise. I would like to hear from the minister on his remarks a commitment and a plan for ending the scandal of delayed discharge in our mental hospitals that is identified in this report. Of course, services cannot just be wished into existence. They have to be planned, managed and resourced appropriately. Analysis provided to me by the Royal College of Psychiatrists shows that Tayside has the highest rate of consultant psychiatrist vacancies in Scotland. Less than half of posts are filled. In one service, only one in five of those posts are filled. 80 per cent unfilled. Some of this huge weight is picked up by hugely expensive locum staff. Those staff do not fill out of our shifts, they do not provide staff development and they play no part in the planning for any future robust services in our communities. For years, we heard from service users that people with the dual diagnosis of mental health and substance use struggled to access services. The Dundee Poverty Commission's interviews with hundreds of citizens in Dundee, the Dundee Drugs Commission, the authorities denied them all until the evidence became overwhelming and this was a feature of Dr Strang's reports. At that point, they promised to do better. So where are we now? The oversight group reports that dual diagnosis will be addressed at a later date. The Strang report was not delivered three weeks ago, it was delivered two years ago. After all those previous years of denial, we will get to it when we get to it is nowhere near good enough. Delayed discharge, workforce planning, dual diagnosis, just a few of the urgent challenges the service faces identified in this report to ministers and to which we require a full response. I want to close, Presiding Officer, with what I know must be a central question for this minister. NHS Tayside has had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the reform process. Of huge concern, this report shows that serious doubts remain about their commitment to it. After Dr Strang's progress second report was called into question, the accuracy of the reported progress from local leadership, the oversight group reported in January last year. Tayside had 28 recommendations rated as green and 21 as amber. Our independent assessment had nine recommendations rated as green, 38 as amber and 2 as amber red. Worlds apart, quite literally incredible. Can this Tayside board really be trusted to mark its own homework? The evidence says no. Can this Tayside board be left alone to deliver the change that we need? The city of Dundee says no. I hope that the minister will set out tonight his plans for the future of governance. The minister clearly believed that additional oversight was required, and he would not have appointed this external group. The oversight group does not believe that it should become permanent, but previous measures have proven to be entirely insufficient. To whom will NHS Tayside be accountable? Who will hear their reports? Who will ensure that echoes of the lost are heard, the silence of the helpless known and the cries of the bereaved answered? If we are back here in three years with another report and another set of recommendations, that will have been an abject failure that shames us all, and it will be measured out in many more lost lives. I want to begin with a few thank yous. First, I thank Michael Marra for bringing this incredibly important topic forward for debate. Secondly, I thank the minister for setting up the independent oversight and assurance group. Without that intervention, I seriously question whether we would have seen any meaningful progress made in addressing the state of mental health services provided by NHS Tayside, but with due respect to Mr Marra and Mr Stewart, however, the biggest thank you must go to the independent oversight and assurance group for the job that they have done. I had a privilege of meeting with Fiona Leeson and her team during their work, and I do not mind admitting that I was hugely impressed not only by their commitment and their approach but, more importantly, by their candour. The answer to every question that I put to them in a way that, with me, reassured that those were people who intended to leave Tayside's mental health services in far better shape than they found them, and they were not going to be fobbed off or kidded by cosmetic improvements. That is why, like others, I have every confidence in what their final report says, good and bad, is credible. I must admit that I was a little conflicted about how I viewed the picture of the report page. I wanted to take heart from the progress highlighted, but the more I reflected on it, the more I came back to it. As Michael Marra has alluded to, the oversight group operated for a year. Prior to that, NHS Tayside had ample opportunity to drive the progress that was demanded by Professor Strang, first of all in his initial report, and then the follow-up report, the progress report in June 2021. When I look at areas that still require attention, I cannot help but feel deeply disquieted that we are not far further forward. You wonder what it will take for NHS Tayside to get its house in order. The report notes, for example, that some important areas relating to workforce still have a long way to go. There is also an urgent need to improve some aspects of governance and public performance reporting as a means of developing a more open and transparent culture and building trust among the communities of Tayside. Why on earth are the group still having to highlight a need for those at the top to properly support and lead a highly skilled and committed staff to ensure that they can do their jobs properly, not to mention involving major decisions on service delivery, and why has not transparency and rebuilding trust and confidence within that wider community already been placed at the heart of everything the board does around mental health? Is it any wonder that NHS Tayside has the worst record for recruiting general adult psychiatry consultants in Scotland? When those skilled individuals are in such demand, why would they choose to work for a board whose reputation in the field is as NHS Tayside's it is? Yes, progress has been made, but there remains much more to do to improve the mental health offering and rebuild trust, and in so doing hopefully make recruitment earlier. For me, Presiding Officer, there are two very obvious questions as we look to the future. First, how confident can we be that the momentum for change will be maintained? Secondly, how will progress or lack of progress be monitored from here on in? How will NHS Tayside's feet be held to the fire? As the MSP for Angus South, I have confidence about the intent and the direction of travel around community mental health service provision in that part of Tayside. I have engaged directly with the Angus health and social care partnership on that and have been able to make some suggestions to ensure that all cohorts are captured. I believe they are on the right track. I would not expect anything else, to be honest, under the leadership of Gail Smith, but the Angus situation is inextricably linked to that of wider Tayside. We need, for example, a decision about single site provision. I understand that the least on-cast view is up in around 18 months' time, and the physical environment of Strath Martin has been raised as a source of concern for patients and staff. Having praised the minister for the action that he took in setting up the group in October 2021, I also looked to him in closing to hopefully provide assurance that there will be no backsliding in Tayside. Now, the oversight group has produced its final report, and that we will emerge from the mess that he, following on from the initial work set and trained by G. Freeman, has set about sorting, with mental health services provided by NHS Tayside that properly and fully meet the needs of those who require them. Thank you very much, Mr Bey, and I call Paul Stwine to be followed by Tess White up to four minutes, Mr Swinney. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I want to thank my friend Mr Marra, the member for North East Scotland, for tabling this motion for debate, this vital motion for debate in the chamber, and I was happy to support it. Three years ago, Dr David Strang set out a list of 49 recommendations for NHS Tayside and two for the Scottish Government as a whole, a clear list of remedies to solve Scotland's mental health crisis. Yet, as we debate this important motion this evening, three years down the line, well over half of those 49 recommendations for the health board are marked by failure, a worrying sign of the lack of urgency and complacency that defines Scotland's mental health crisis. In the two years following Strang's report, there were 144 probable suicides in the Tayside area. When reading this report and listening to the contributions of colleagues this evening, harrowing has there been in some cases, it is all too easy to find oneself lost in the numbers and statistics, but it is crucial to remember that behind those figures were 144 lives lost to suicide in Tayside. I must question, had more urgency been shown in enacting the recommendations, how many of those vulnerable lives would still be here with us today, still with their families and friends, and still a part of their communities. The Tayside mental health report paints a disturbing image of how we are willing to treat our most vulnerable. However, the problems facing NHS Tayside do not exist in a vacuum. I ask colleagues here today, can you confidently say that mental health patients in your constituencies receive the treatment that they deserve? The mental health crisis that threatens Dundee in its hinterland is prevalent in many post-industrial Scottish cities. Start comparisons can be made between the experiences of Glaswegians and Dundonians over the years. Both Dundee and Glasgow City have stubbornly high suicide mortality rates, which stand well above the Scottish average. These higher than average suicide rates in our cities can be put into context by some of the cruel ways that inequality impacts health and social outcomes in Scotland. Indeed, the national records of Scotland highlighted that the rate of suicide in the most deprived areas of Scotland was almost three times higher than in the least deprived. That relationship between poverty and poor mental health is the ultimate reminder of how hard life can be for those who find themselves at the bottom of our social hierarchy. It is the ultimate reminder of how unfair our system can be. Against this backdrop, it is deeply disappointing that funding for mental health services in the next financial year will be frozen despite the health budget increasing overall by 6.2 per cent, failing the Scottish Government's own aspiration to have mental health expenditure as a 10 per cent share of the entire national health service budget. Whilst that is a difficult topic to discuss, the general trend in Scotland can in some cases allow for optimism. In 2021, the number of people dying from suicide fell to its lowest level since 2017, partly driven by an improvement in outcomes for female mental health patients. A noticeable decrease in suicide rates for any group in our country should be acknowledged. However, it is imperative that we can remain cognisant of the disproportionate impact of suicide among young men. Just last week, I spoke in this chamber about the effects that the cost of living crisis is having on young men's mental health. The Samaritans report that they have seen their call lines skyrocket with more and more people mentioning finance and unemployment concerns as a stressor shows clearly that the Tayside mental health report shows that we cannot become complacent. Despite a recent decrease in suicide numbers overall, the mental health crisis is far from solved in Scotland. We know the effects that poverty has on mental health and suicide rates, with the cost of living crisis driving more Scots into poverty and making life more and more difficult each day. As I stand here, Scotland faces a growing crisis, a mental health crisis that is currently being compounded by our failing economy. We must act now. We must ensure that those recommendations are seen as essential, not optional. We must ensure that advocate resource is dedicated to implementing them. It is only by putting words into action that we can protect our most vulnerable in Tayside and across Scotland. Thank you very much, Mr Swinney. I call Tess White to be followed by Richard Leonard. Deputy Presiding Officer, I too thank Michael Marra for securing the time for this evening's debate and so quickly after it was postponed a couple of weeks ago. After the findings of David Strang's 2020 trust and respect report into mental health services in Tayside, it is vital that parliamentarians continue to shine a light on the provision of these services after grave concerns were raised in the Scottish Parliament in 2018. I am encouraged today to hear Graham Day's passion for change. I was not an MSP in 2018, but I knew of the public campaign for an inquiry into Tayside's mental health services. I read about the tragic story of David Ramsey, who hung himself after a second emergency assessment at Carsview. I was horrified by the increase in suicides in Dundee by 61%. My own family has experienced the devastating impact of suicide. My heart goes out to all the families across Tayside who have lost loved ones this way. As a north-east MSP, I've seen Carsview through the eyes of constituents, and I've felt their fear as they've tried to navigate a frightening system that was so stacked against them. I looked at the final report of the independent oversight group on Tayside's mental health services, not just with interest but with personal and professional investment. Reading between the lines, there's a tremendous amount of work still to be done, and I particularly struggle to understand why Tayside executive partners and the IOAG continue to be a part in their assessment of progress. As Michael Marrow rightly pointed out, the report states that Tayside executive partners have reported 33 green recommendations in 16 amber. The IOAG have rated 20 green, 29 amber and 2 red. Deputy Presiding Officer, that's a gulf in assessment, not a gully, and how can that be? There are two areas in the latest report I find extremely concerning. The first is on workforce and the second is on culture. On workforce, as the report emphasises, there's still a long way to go. That seems an understatement when it was reported just a couple of weeks ago that Tayside is at the epicentre of a national scandal in adult psychiatric care with serious issues recruiting consultant psychiatrists, and I hope the minister will address this in closing. On culture, the report identifies an urgent need to improve governance and public performance reporting as a means of developing more open and transparent culture. It's something we've heard so many times and something that's been raised with me by my constituents time and time again. These are fundamental points that still require significant improvement. The essence of David Strang's report was trust and respect. He said that the successful delivery of healthcare services depends on good levels of trust between healthcare providers and patients, their families and carers. That's the gold standard, but Tayside falls well short, well short. Deputy Presiding Officer, there's still a huge way to go for mental health services in Tayside. This may have been the IOAG's final report, but it's definitely not the end of the line. The process still needs oversight and accountability from Grant Archibald, and I'd like to say that from Grant Archibald and his team to the highest levels of the Scottish Government, it can't be brushed under the carpet any longer. Thank you. Thank you very much indeed, Ms White. I call the final speaker in the open debate, Richard Leonard, up to four minutes, please. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer, and I thank Michael Marra for bringing this debate to Parliament. In so doing, he has performed a democratic service not just for his own constituents, but for all of our constituents. The way that families in Tayside have been let down by failed mental health services is not just a local scandal, it's a national scandal. That's the reason why I pressed the First Minister to set up the Strang review back in 2018, and that is why I pressed her as well to implement all of the recommendations in full when his report, Trust and Respect, was published two years later. But what has been a recurring failure here, and we see it once again with the report of this independent oversight and assurance group last month, is what David Strang described in 2021 as, I quote, an over-reporting of progress. Of his 51 recommendations, there are 33 where the oversight group agrees with the assessment of the Scottish Government and Tayside executive partners, but of the 18 recommendations where the independent review group disagrees with the Government's assessment, in all by one of them, they have found that the situation is much worse than the health board and the Government claim, that there is at best optimism bias, at worst a culture of denial and an indifference to the truth. Listen to some of the language the authors of this report choose. Of the new mental health strategy in Tayside, Living Life Well, they call work streams unrealistic, that they are spread too thinly. They also say, and I quote, the governance structures for mental health also continue to be overly complex and unclear in terms of responsibility for what, on the treatment of patients. The report is highly critical of the three strikes and your out approach regarding appointments, which results in closed case outcomes. Psychological therapy services still exist, as they say, in a somewhat confused landscape. There is a plethora of activity on stakeholder engagement, but much of this is fragmented, with no real sense of people working together on shared priorities. Advocacy organisations are still under resourced, under staff and under finance. NHS staff feel, to quote the report, its groundhog day with reviews upon reviews, and one of the most damning findings is that a report with the title, Listen. Yes, Listen, a survey of the views of people who use mental health services in Tayside, we learn, has not been listened to at all, with no formal consideration of the report by the health board, and no formal response from Tayside executive partners. I will conclude with this. Two days ago, I met up again with Mandy McLaren, whose 28-year-old son Dale tragically completed suicide eight years ago. Mandy is one of the most courageous women I have ever met. When we spoke, the first thing she said was, where is the action? We have had enough bad reports on bad reports. She told me that, as recently as last week, someone in crisis had to phone Wedderburn House 67 times to get through. She knows of others who have had a three-year wait for a psychologist and are still waiting. Mandy McLaren's message is simple. Enough is enough. It is time that this Government was part of the solution instead of being part of the problem, because I tell the minister that the Government is on the wrong side of this argument with the people. The Government is on the wrong side of this argument over a health service, including a mental health service, which is supposed to be freely available at the point of need. The Government is on the wrong side. This is not just about governmental duty, it is a moral and a social duty. It is time to end the shameful betrayal of a community in need, to act, to plan, to show respect and to finally bring hope in place of despair. I now invite the minister to respond to the debate for around seven minutes. I thank members for their contributions tonight and for Mr Marra for bringing the debate to the chamber. I will do my best to respond to as many of the points raised as I possibly can in the short time that we have. First of all, I would like to put on record again my appreciation of the oversight group's work and the inclusive approach that they have taken throughout their tenure. My thanks to Fiona Lees, Fraser McKinlay and David Williams for all that they have done. The reason why I appointed this oversight group was to use the words of Michael Marra that I did not want folkmark in their own homework. That is why they went in. They have had a huge amount of engagement with front-line staff. That has been commendable. I am conscious that those conversations often painted a difficult picture, but they are views that must be heard. They are also views that I have heard when I have been out and about in Tayside, of which I have been probably in Tayside's mental health services more than any other mental health services in the country, because I want to ensure that we get right for the families that have been spoken about here today. Importantly, the oversight group has also listened to the voices of lived experiences of mental health and learning disability services in Tayside. We must also listen to what their experiences tell us. One of the most frustrating things for me is that people that I have talked to feel that they have not been listened to at the right time. That is wrong. I know from this job that those services that are performing best in the country at this moment are the services where people are being listened to and people are helping to shape the services. That should be the same in Tayside. In implementing the recommendations from the oversight group, we must ensure that individuals and their families are empowered to make meaningful contributions that shape the future of services in Tayside. I also want to recognise that there is a wealth of organisations across Tayside who are doing fantastic work to promote mental health and wellbeing across the region. I am pleased that the oversight group was able to meet many of them. I accompanied Fiona to a mental health festival in Perth, which was extremely well attended. I have to say again that many of the stories that I heard from folks who attended that were extremely frustrating. Those people must be listened to without doubt. I welcome all of the contributions to the oversight group's final report. The report is comprehensive and it clearly articulates how we move forward and where we must now focus all of our efforts. I am encouraged to see the progress that has been made so far in some respects, in terms of strategic planning, clarity on roles and responsibilities and accountability in delivering services and in patient safety, including the approach to significant adverse event reviews, distress brief intervention and the introduction of a new observation protocol. However, as has been highlighted during the debate, there is clearly much work to be done across many of the original trust and respect recommendations and the six key areas for priority action that were highlighted by the oversight group in their final report. I have therefore been seeking assurance that the necessary outstanding actions will be taken. I have met with the Tayside executive partners and chief officers to set out my clear expectations on the importance of their role in delivering the improvements that are required. They have committed to producing an improvement plan by the end of March, which will set out clear actions and milestones that deliver on those key priority areas. I can assure the chamber that that improvement plan will be gone through with a fine tooth comb to make sure that what needs to be done will be done. I will continue to meet with Tayside executive partners to review progress, and my officials will provide an on-going package of support to colleagues across Tayside as they develop and then implement that improvement plan. In tandem, we will work together to agree the criteria to de-escalate the health board from its current level 3 escalation in respect of mental health services on the board performance escalation framework. However, that will not happen until there is a real improvement. I will give way to Mr Marra, of course. Michael Marra, I greatly appreciate it, minister. An improvement plan is right that we have to whom will it be held accountable? Will the plan be published? Who will have the opportunity to question those lead partners beyond yourself, minister, in terms of a public forum so that people can be held accountable for the delivery of the points that will be set out in it? They will be accountable to me, because I will be looking at this very closely indeed. I will not be putting in another oversight group or anything like that. Now is the time for action. We stopped them from marking their own homework. We have seen that, as some have said, they have over-promised on what they have delivered. In some cases, it could be said that some things have been a tick-box exercise. That is not good enough. That cannot be, so they will report to me. I will say to every member in this chamber and members who represent Tayside have already written to me that I am more than happy to keep folk absolutely appraised of what is going on there, and I am more than happy to share all of the information that I receive and all of that as we move forward, because there has to be openness and transparency here. We owe that to the people that you, Mr Marra, Mr Leonard and others have talked about today. We owe that to them. Additional scrutiny in that respect and on the improvement plan will be provided via the Scottish Government's national planning and performance oversight group. In the coming weeks, I will also meet with a chair of the board at NHS Tayside, the chairs and vice-chairs of the three integration joint boards and members of the lived experience stakeholder participation group. Those meetings will serve to further reflect on the conclusions that the oversight group have reached in that final report. I will also set out my very clear expectation that the chairs' role in scrutinising and supporting the improvement plan will be vital to ensuring that we make improvements for the people of Tayside who rely on mental health and learning disability services. Before I conclude, I would particularly like to thank members of the stakeholder participation group for their tireless work in recent years in extremely difficult circumstances. I know that none of that has been easy for them, and we owe it to them to get this right, because members of the group have shown bravery and openness in sharing their experiences. I therefore want to take this opportunity to say that we are listening and will continue to work with you to ensure that the improvements that are required in Tayside are delivered. There is a clear and collective interest here, so I welcome having the chance today to debate these important issues. I am very clear in my commitment to make sure that the findings of this report are implemented, and I want to continue those conversations and work right across the chamber over the coming weeks and months to support the delivery of the high-quality mental health and learning disability services that the communities and people of Tayside deserve. Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. Thank you very much, minister. That concludes the debate, and I close this meeting of Parliament.

Morning everybody. I'm in Brainerd, Minnesota Getting my trailer unloaded before we head to Minneapolis put something else on it there, and that'll take us home Which is my favorite though. The weather is still really nice outside It's still nice to be able to do this inside So just about done the paperwork's already all taken care of My straps are rolled up my tarps are rolled up tied onto the deck behind me right behind my cab on the trailer And all my bungees are put away Soon as they get the rest of this wood off the trailer you can back out of here I'll be on our way Soon be a good day Just like that. We're empty Now I have to be careful But when I leave here I mean I've already started my day, right? So I guess actually I don't doesn't really matter at this point My appointment in Minneapolis is two and a half hours away from here. All right my appointment is at 5 p.m. And It's now 12 30 So I don't have to be there for a while So I think we're gonna leave here right away and try to get there early I'd rather wait there than here, right and Michael the clock's already started We're already going the day is already started so I'm gonna go over there And we'll probably have to wait a little bit But I know that the Lord God's back in the office have some special tricks up their sleeves and very Persuasive personalities They might be able to get me in early. They're gonna talk to their people their people gonna talk to their people their people get back To our people our people talk to me and I'll be like hey, could I get in a little bit early? And they'll be like maybe That's exactly the answer. I'm gonna get maybe so if I get over there if suddenly they have an opening like Someone didn't show up or someone cancels or something They can be like hey, it's your truck here We can load them now and I got to be there and be ready so that I can be like I'm there it doesn't take too long to load because it's like loads of shingles, right? So you throw on there's usually seven layers is for 13 skids Throw that on there through this over there thinking in my head thinking of myself in my head right now It shouldn't take too long We might make it all the way back. Oh, I gotta grab fuel on the way down there yet Oh, I got to figure out where the best fuel prices are Let's see. I have this app. It's called Wex W ex And It's connected to my fuel card So what I do is I log into this app And then it Shows me where the best fuel prices are within 25 miles of me or I can say on my route What's the what the cheapest fuel on my road because when you have a fleet card? You get discounts at different places like below Like posted price because we buy so much fuel that we get discounts and those discounts are reflected in these prices in here So I know what the true prices that I'm paying Very very handy. So let's see nearby here. We're looking at K 415 9 Okay, and let's see if I Search a long route let's say from here to Shakopee. Well, I've been told it's shock up here to shock a pee whatever Shacko pee Okay, from current location Search and it'll show me the map and exactly where all the stops are and what my prices are I'm guessing St. Cloud's probably gonna be cheaper than here And we're gonna be going right past St. Cloud They usually have pretty good fuel pretty good price And if St. Cloud isn't the cheapest usually right next door in Clearwater the TA is the cheapest I'm reading it's taken a really long time here though. I'm gonna figure this out and we'll plan our route down there and Let's get this day going There we go All empty just my tarps left Beautiful day out here beautiful day It's a great day to go truck. What do you say? Leaders that is 189 gallons to leaders Seven hundred and fifteen point four four three leaders. I was a big one today Thirty seven point four leaders per hundred kilometers not bad Thirty seven point four leaders per hundred kilometers in miles per gallon six point two three Six point two three miles per gallon is within our target range So in US dollars this fill up cost us 706 dollars and 10 cents and Canadian dollars was 957 98 lights right over there. That's the Canadian US border Canada is just on the other side. Oh man long day didn't get border clearance tonight yet, but That's no one's fault. It was too late I'm pretty sure my customs is clear, but I also need my Paperwork it's called an ACI. I think I need to wait for that to be clear either way. I've gone far enough for today I'm tired. I'm happy with how far I've gotten I'll wait for confirmation in the morning That I'm clear. I don't need to cross tonight anyway Just got about another hour and 15 minutes up to Winnipeg. We're gonna deliver these shingles And see what we got after that. I'm just gonna turn them burn I'm gonna try to keep making money the week's only beginning so Gotta keep these wheels running Gotta keep them turning so thanks for watching today everybody. I appreciate you hanging out with me It was it's a nice run started out in Brainerd went down to Shakopee or Shakopee Minneapolis came back up here Peppin up It's about a 900 kilometer day or so somewhere in there 550 miles. I'm done for today This is the scene here First thing in the morning when the sun's up This is a very popular truck stop since it's right at the border You can see here. There's a bunch of trailers drop right beside me over there I don't really like it that they do that because this is the last truck stop before Canada Canada is just a mile that way and this is where we all come to stop when we're waiting for border clearance so that means that this is also The spot where a lot of guys will come in drop their trailer when their loads aren't cleared But go across the border to go home if there's problems with the load turns I've done it before too when there's a plan for another driver to come pick up the trailer If I'm in a rush to get somewhere to get home or something. I can cross the border And if I don't have a trailer on I can cross the border. No problem It's the load that needs to be cleared for the border with customs So if the load's not cleared or there's an issue with the paperwork or something's just Taking a really long time and there's no, you know end in sight or no solution in sight What we could what we can do Is trade this load with another driver If I need to get going I can unhook go and another driver comes and hooks on to it here And it takes it across the border when it's cleared. It doesn't happen very often, but That means that trailers would not be left here on their own, right? But I see a lot of a lot of trailers left here for a long period of time. I don't know why But they're taking up parking spots But I'm pretty sure they are registered with The truck stop inside and maybe they even pay them for it. I would hope so If you're doing that, I hope that you're paying them to leave your trailers here But I don't know what their deals are if they have any deals worked out with the ownership here All I know is that we never used to see this many drop trailers here. I don't know everything So it's first thing in the morning. I'm just waking up just wrapping up yesterday's vlog for you Because I was so tired when I got here It was a good day of driving like just steady driving I got here as fast as I could We ended up getting here at like 1 30 in the morning So today the next day for you I can only get rolling Or I can only start my pre-trip on the logbook legally at 11 30 in the morning So once that's done, we're gonna get these shingles into Winnipeg and we'll get them delivered around 1 p.m. Today And then we'll see what's next after that. I don't have a plan after that yet But I'm sure by the time we get there there'll be something in the works So far this tire that was wearing faster because it had higher air pressure isn't wearing any faster than this one still We did lose quite a bit of tread off of that before I realized what the problem was That was a well, it wasn't my fault that it was filled up 15 psi More than the tire beside it the guy who put the tire on should have equalized the air pressures, right? But I did realize that it was wearing funny and I didn't know at the time that that could be because of air pressure 17 years of trucking. I'm still learning basic things that I should know, right? I learned that now that if your tires aren't If one tire is wearing much faster than the other tire first thing you check is the air pressure And I know you guys in the comment section you guys all knew this already, right? So you guys all told me and my father-in-law told me my dad told me everybody told me as soon as they saw my video And then I went and checked it and sure enough 15 psi higher in the one that we patched and that causes this one We're down a lot faster than this one and all the rest But we saved it in time. It'll be okay. They'll balance out over time. These tires are doing really well These are those black lock Chinese tires that I bought. They're from the hand-cooked family of tires They're $500 Canadian the tire As opposed to about what was it? $800 More than that For a full set of eight Michelin tires good Michelin tires, it was gonna cost me about just under $8,000 I think yeah just under $8,000 for eight black Hawks Cost me four thousand even That's why I went with these lots of saving those you've been watching. I know I'm repeating myself more so for that for the new people These are black Hawks BDL 71s my tire size is 295 75 hour 22 and a half So they're a little bit low profile not as common to find but Really like these tires so far they're wearing very evenly like aside from my mistake over there all the tires are wearing nice And since they were a little over half price as long as I get a little over half the distance out of them that I would the regular tires I got my money's worth right? They're holding air and what are we supposed to do? Everything's getting so expensive, right? I want to support local North American companies. I do but I also have mouths to feed And I want to get ahead I want to make some money Decided to go with these tires give them a shot. I'll be your guinea pig I'll keep updating you on how they're wearing and how how they're doing and See if it was a good choice or not, but so far I'm happy with the purchase So I've got a walk around the rest of the truck check my tires if you're wondering why I'm holding a little mini bat This is my tire thumper. This is what I thump the tires with I don't just walk around with this thing all the time Maybe I should in some places, but I'm gonna go check the rest of my tires get my truck ready, and we'll see you in tomorrow's video right here So please subscribe hit that notification bell so you don't miss it We're gonna deliver these in a winter peg and we'll see what's next. I'll see you tomorrow Be safe out there. Please on the road drive safe

Hello and welcome back here to the channel I'm able rabbit for another episode here on drift 21 We're gonna restart our career go make some money and build up some cars to make sure you guys follow me on all social media All of which are found in the description box below So we're gonna go into a new game We're going to skip the tutorial And we're gonna hop into drift 21 and we're going to see About doing a new car, so we do start off with a Miata, but Who really wants a Miata? So We're not gonna use this Maybe we're gonna We're gonna kind of keep it there, but I think we're gonna buy a new car And see what we can do with a new car off the rip because I don't really feel like building a Miata Sorry to all the Miata lovers But we're not building one because we do have enough money. I think to buy any car really Yeah, we don't have money to buy any car. So either we're gonna do a 180 Or we're gonna do a 350 I think we should just do a 350 because of The power in the 350 is a little bit higher We're gonna go 350 base 287 horsepower. We're gonna get the blue So we're gonna purchase this car And we're gonna start working with the 350 We're gonna build it how we built would build a standard drift car We're gonna start driving it off stock and see what we can do with it on the stock aspect of it So we do have it all a bone stock. We're just gonna go driving it So we are going to start the challenges. We got the wheel cam turned on We are going to go to the first track If you drift lands and we're going to go into challenge mode And we're going to start working our way down because you notice there's a lot of prize money available If you get up there in points So we can see how quickly We can get money just by doing these challenges And I feel like this first challenge just a you know quick acceleration nothing major In the Z I feel like it's more than enough to just bang first place And that's $2,700 right into our account. So we're going to go to the next challenge, which is very Simply the same thing just a driving thing. So it's very quick and easy to get money It looks like So we get to harder challenges, maybe I think we're able to get that one as well. Complete it. Complete it. Complete it. Oh speed travel is low. So that's only 1300 So let's retry that and see if we can't get faster Did we end up getting faster on that one? I think we got a little faster. We got some more money So there's even more money coming in now This one looks like we got to do a little lukey loop I keep having to put my mouse down little loop and then finish we should be able to do this quite well With the z little handbrake pull Oh Nope. Oh, it just restarts us. All right. We got a little aggressive with the handbrake pull there So we failed that I don't know if we're gonna be able uh, we did still get 3,900 because we missed the clipping zone We're gonna give that a retry. I could just use my keyboard. I realize that now We're not getting full throttle. So we gotta adjust our throttle points I feel like that was way better We managed to complete that. So we got a little more money. We got a gold trophy. I don't like people that So we're just gonna tap B go to the next challenge. This one looks like we have drift zones now So quick way to gain some money because remember we spent 10 grand on the car. So we only had four grand left Can I do this in the stock z? I feel like we're getting Did we miss something though? We failed those clipping points, but we still got 4,500 bucks. So we're gonna try and do this one more time So quick way to get cash right now is Get yourself a car A little bit of power We missed that one. Oh, we missed one of the clipping points We missed one clipping point. So we did get some more money though So we're gonna continue these challenges next challenge. The z is doing pretty well in its factory thing We're gonna need some wise fab and some suspension mods to make this even better Because we've got a little bit of a figure 8 drift going on here now We're not doing too bad with this stock z Completing everything getting only a silver. No, no, no, no. We need to go We're staying second gear for this I feel like that was much better on those drift zones Coming out with a lot more speed And there's our bonus and our larger score 3,000 more Next challenge looks like this one's a putting it all together full track. A lot of drift zones See what we can get with this one Stock z Rippin this challenge that We missed that one now. Oh, and we hit that one. Oh We're gonna hit that reset button Having a lot of fun with this stock z here 121 So we did hit that clipping point Oh, we missed that one Had to bring the back end out to that one I feel like we need a little more power or some better suspension because we are struggling to get this one down But I feel like we maybe still got a silver We got a bronze so nowhere near so we're gonna hit retry. I feel like this might be the last challenge for this one We got to try and get all these clipping points So this is the second gear rip No Nope. No, we're in the grass. Oh So I think the z needs a little bit better Grip and some more steering angle if we're going to be able to complete some more of these challenges But we're trying to get the money to build the car up No, we missed that And we missed that one As you can see we are struggling with grip and power you need a little bit more In this z we're gonna have to start building it up So we did get that clipping zone. Oh We're gonna try that one more time See how far we are in the challenges for this track. We are missing those two I feel like we need to be in third gear for those ones Second gear for that one We missed that one as well So we're gonna try third gear trying to complete this challenge with gold It's like a drivers testing back in the GT grand trismal days We had to do the drivers test and stuff and you had to just keep trying to go for gold Oh, we missed one We missed two again Get all the drift points though Maybe silver Nope still another run. So let's go Back to the garage and let's go take a look at how much money we've gotten so far by just by doing these challenges in this episode Once we load back to the garage, we're gonna see where we're at Maybe we can start tearing this z apart and start doing some building on it. So we completed Six here at drift land Next would be a time attack Time attacks. So there's time attack stuff that we can do Here's what jim kana points Oh, we're definitely gonna need to do some serious Tuning for the car to do that. But if we were to go say to training level one and select We can continue our adventure on points. So but let's see how much money we got so far 26 grand 26 grand in that little bit of time So we can definitely start building up the z maybe change the wheels get some suspension on it Maybe a little more power and see what we can do with it So make sure you guys follow me on all social media all which found the description box below We guys enjoyed seven more episodes to come because this z is gonna get stripped So as always, I thank you guys for coming back and watching. I'm evil rabbit. I'll see you guys on the track

we will solve an example to see one important effect which we have been repeatedly mentioning that is the increase in area per unit volume of particle. So, we said when you go to nano sizes at least one important effect which is obvious and which is expected is the increase in surface area. And we had noted that suppose instead of talking about only the external surface and we are talking about a poly crystalline material and we are actually reducing the grain size. Then the interface area which is the grain boundary area per unit volume of the material will increase as they reduce my grain size to very small dimensions. So, let us make a calculation to understand this effect so that we have in perspective the kind of numbers involved and the effects we are talking about. At the outset there are two effects which you expect when you go down to small scales. So, two important things we have to keep in mind when we are actually reducing the particle size. One is that the surface area per unit volume will increase and we will actually make a calculation to show this, but additionally we will notice that curvature effects start to dominate when you go down to small sizes. So, if you had a large size particle this curvature here would be actually small compared to a small size particle as you know curvature goes as the inverse of the radius of curvature. Therefore, as we reduce the I reduce my particle size and make the radius smaller the curvature effects will start to dominate because now there will be more unsatisfied bonds on the with respect to the surface atoms here as compared to a case where the curvature is small. So, these two important effects will start to dominate when I go down to small sizes and this example will particularly focus on the first one. So, let us calculate the surface area as this size of the particle is reduced. Let us assume that the particles are spherical for now and we will all later on take a couple of more examples of what other possibilities exist and find out the effect of increasing the number of particles keeping the total volume constant. Let us start with one particle of volume v 1 and if you assume the radius of the particle to be one unit then the volume will be 4 by 3 pi 1 unit q which is 4 by 3 pi. The area of the particle since there is only one particle and the subscript here refers to the number of particles. So, the subscript in these cases refers to number of particles at each stage of my what you may call division and that will be 4 pi area units. The area per unit volume if I calculate is a 1 by v 1 and since I have only one particle at the stage it is 4 pi r square by 4 by 3 pi r cube which is 3 by r. That means if I keep reducing my r then area per unit volume will increase. Now, what will happen if I divide this particle and here I am talking about a division like this where I take a single particle divided into two particles further divide this particle into three particles if necessary and to four particles. So, there are three particles at this stage there are four particles at this stage and I keep on increasing the number of divisions but at each point of time I keep my particles spherical and I also keep the total volume that equal to the starting particle. So, these are the two constraints I impose. So, I notice that the area per unit for one particle is 3 by r. If I split this particle into two spherical particles of equal volume from volume constancy we get that 4 by 3 pi r 2 cube which r 2 is being the radius of the smaller particle which is got from dividing the larger particle and there are two of these particles. So, the number 2 is coming from the fact there are two of these particles then I have 4 by 3 pi this implies and this is the original starting volume that means r 2 is 1 by 2 power 1 by 3 which is 0.79. So, if I divide my one unit radius particle into two particles radius of those particles will be 0.79 units. The area now is two twice because there are two particles into 4 pi r square which is 4 pi into half power 2 by 3 because we know now that r 2 is 1 by 2 power 1 by 3. Therefore, I get 2 into 7.92 which is 15.84. So, I got 15.84 as the area in the second stage. Now, I would like to do this truncation repeatedly and therefore, I would like a formula for any number n a general number n of particles and in that case I can calculate the relevant quantities as r n being the radius at the end stage of division v n being the volume at the end stage of division a n being the area at the end stage of division and I can actually go ahead and calculate the area per unit volume at the end stage of division. So, let us see what are the relevant formula here r n is 1 by n power 1 by 3. So, at the second stage it will become 1 by 2 power 1 by 3 as we had seen here in the case of the first stage of division. So, this is the case for the 2. So, the suppose I am talking about the fifth stage of division it will become 1 by 5 power 1 by 3. The volume at the end stage would be 4 by 3 pi r cube r being 1 by n. So, it is 1 by n power 1 by 3 cube. So, it is 1 by n. Therefore, the volume at the end stage is 4 by 3 pi into 1 by n. The area at the end stage now we have any of these particles therefore, I am calculating the total area here the volume I am referring to is the volume of the particle individual particle and not the total volume which anyhow remains constant even if you divide into a number of particles because we are starting with the given volume and dividing into smaller and smaller volumes. Now, each of these particles will have 4 pi r square which is 1 by n power 1 by 3 square, but then n of these particles will contribute n times that area and that is what I am writing down as a n here. So, it becomes 4 pi n power 1 by 3. The area per unit volume then goes to a n by v n is 3 n power 1 by 3. So, if I now plot these quantities to get a feel how these things changes. So, the plot is shown here this is the number of particles and initially I am starting with small number of particles like starting from 1. I go to about say 17 particles here and if I have 2 relevant quantities the primary axis is refers to the total area of the particles and the secondary area secondary axis refers to the area per unit volume which is this formula here. So, this is my secondary axis and the total area of the particles plotted as the primary axis. So, we notice that the total area of the particles starts from about if you look at the formula here it is about we start from somewhere around about more than 10 and this is the total area given by this upper line and you can see that the number increases and by the time we go to about say 16 particles already the area has increased more than double. So, you can see that this number is close to double and we see that even when you are about more than 16 particles or we have divided the original part in 16 and 16 times the total area has gone more than double if you look at the area per unit particle then this is now my secondary axis. So, you see that initial starting value is close is 1 because that is what my starting area per unit volume is and then I see that it has gone to value of 3. So, this is a 3 time increase approximately 3. So, let us do this calculation a little more and try to understand the impact especially when I go to large number of particles as shown in the bottom graph. So, you are starting with 1 particle and going to something like a few thousand particles here we have shown about 9000 particles to see how these numbers change and how what is what will be the impact of this increase in number of particles. Before we go to such large numbers let us do our calculation in terms of percentages because often it is very important to have a number that if I reduce my particle size by a certain value what is my overall percentage increase in area and especially what is the percentage increase in area for a given volume of material I start with. So, the percentage increase in area is the curve which is plotted on the top and which is referred to in the primary axis. So, the primary axis refers to the percentage increase in area. So, initial of course, there is only one particle and therefore, the percentage there is no increase in percentage we are calculating the increase in percentage with respect to this one particle. But, the important point to note is that when you are about for instance just about 8 particles here you see that you already reached and 100 percent increase in area. So, all I have to get is 8 particles from one particle before I already see 100 percent increase in surface area. This is a very important effect that means that as I go dividing more and more my percentage increase is expected to be more drastic and that is what is the usual goal of producing nanoparticles. Now, the radius of the particle is an important number to note here you see the radius of particle is not changing much. If you refer to the previous calculation when we had two particles the radius is 0.79 and this can be better seen in a figure like this that at each stage these particles are not looking much smaller than the previous particle. The radius is not changing that drastically as compared to the surface area or percentage increase in surface area and you can see that even when you have divided your particle about 18 times the radius is come down to about only 0.4 starting from a radius of 1 that implies that though the radius is not decreasing drastically and of course, that is directly a consequence of way the function depends it is 1 by n power 1 by 3, but my overall percentage surface area increases. So, let us see if I keep on dividing carry on this subdivision of the one single particle into larger and larger number of particles what kind of reduction in area can I get and we will later on carry the forward this calculation to see to represent these numbers in a slightly different way. So, suppose I start with one particle and I go to for instance a number like 9000 particles which is not which is still a small number as compared to what is possible and you would notice that the curve increases drastically and by the time here I am reaching a number like that I can almost get a 2000 percent increase in the area. So, this is an important point to note that if I take one particle and divide into about say 9000 particle I get a 2000 percent increase in surface area which is meaning that I am not in change the volume of the starting material. That means, I am having the same volume of the material, but I am just dividing the particle into sub particles and my overall surface area is going to increase drastically. Of course, as I pointed out that instead of starting with dividing the particle itself I could actually talk about starting with a single grain material. This is a single crystal and I can visualize this being divided at each stage into a number of grains. So, this could be for instance into two grains then I can think of dividing this of course, I it is easier to start with the for instance spherical particle to see the effect. So, let me do that. So, let me start with the single grain particle and then I will divide into two grains then I can divide it into three grains and of course, I could keep on doing the subdivision which I will get a particle. These are very very small grain size material. In this case this is a schematic division in this case it is the particle size is not reducing it is actually the grain size which is reducing and this implies that my grain boundary area or my interface area is going to drastically increase. Now, this is profound consequences like now we are talking about if you are talking about grain boundary diffusion or I am talking about creep dominated by grain boundary diffusion then these kind of effects will start to dominate when I reduce my grain size to these values. Let us further extend the same example wherein let us consider a spherical particle with radius equal to 1 millimeter. So, now this is now a tangible particle 1 millimeter in radius and reduce the size to 10 nanometers. That means now I am starting with a tangible particle and reducing the size to the nanometric scale. The number of particles can be calculated using volume constancy like we did before. That means that 4 by 3 pi this is now my 1 millimeter particle cube is n times now n is the number of particles I would obtain 4 by 3 pi into now it is my 10 nanometer particle is 10 power minus 8 cube that means that n is 10 power 15. Therefore, when I go to the nanometric length scale the number of particles I was produce is humongous. So, this increase in area is one aspect of the thing, but also additionally we see that the number of particles is also huge. So, if I make an area ratio calculation I would notice that there is 10 power 5 fold increase in area and therefore, these two aspects go hand in hand and this implies that I do not need lot of material. If I want to actually produce a large number of nanoparticles it is just that I have to keep subdividing till I reach the relevant length scale for my problem. And this is directly leading to what we have been reiterating many times that such a large increase in surface area implies physical properties will become surface dominant. So, there will be a definitely a contribution from the surface in any one of the physical properties you are talking about let it be plasmon resonance, let it be adsorption of gases, let it be creep in the case of a polycrystalline material all this will get will be dominated by surface or interface effects. Now, let us do a instead of doing a top bottom down approach wherein we are starting with a particle and actually cutting it down. Let us start with something known as a bottom up approach and this bottom up approach will throw into light certain other concepts like when you take a nano crystal often it is not spherical. You may find that apart from it being non spherical there are certain magic numbers which appear that means certain magic number of atoms are stabilized. So, here we are considering what you may call a bottom up approach and this is how many synthetic methods actually work. We do not start with the bulk crystal, but we actually construct the nano crystal starting from a few atoms or a few molecules. So, this is a very important method of actual synthesis and so this is we should keep this kind of a technique in mind. The particles may be non spherical in fact they could actually be polyhedral and if you are talking about roughening of shape that means a well defined shape surface if surface diffusion effects are dominant then you will see that nano particles can easily assume that kind of a polyhedral shape and there is an additional factor that there are magic numbers which appear. This magic numbers may be stabilized by electronic configuration etcetera, but here we will see that because of purely geometric reasons such magic numbers may appear. So, instead of starting with a bulk crystal and reducing it is size we do a bottom up construction and as an example let us taken cubic closed pack crystal and here we take the first coordination shell of such a crystal. I have here what is known as a shape which is known as a cube octahedron which is between a cube and an octahedron and it is the coordination polyhedral in FCC. So, around each atom for instance I take a centralized atom I can have 12 other atoms around it which are in the shape of a cube octahedron. Further to this I may build the second layer around this central atom I may build a third layer and a fourth layer at each stage making sure that this kind of a polyhedral is maintained. Now, if I calculate the I am now my shell number is n that means the number of atoms I am adding at the nth shell the number of atoms n t and the number of surface atoms is what we are going to track. The total number of atoms is given by n t the total the fraction of or those atoms out of these which is n s being a subset of n t is the atom sitting on the surface. At level 1 of course we see that we of course use this formula for n greater than 1, but currently we will ignore the central atom and we will take all the atoms on the outer shell. So, we will assume that at n equal to 1 all the atoms are on the surface and as we increase the shell add more and more concentric shells we will see that only a fraction of these atoms actually sit on the surface and the remaining interior atoms will be treated like bulk atoms. So, if you now calculate the total number of atoms a formula like this can be derived wherein the number of atoms total atoms when I have a shell number n is 10 n cube minus 15 n square plus 11 n minus 3 one third of that and the number of surface atoms can be given by 10 n square minus 20 plus 12. So, therefore, if I put n equal to 1 I will see that the number of surface atoms is 12 which is the same as the number of bulk atoms or if you want to add the central atom the bulk atom will be one more in number that will be one bulk atom and the remaining will be surface atoms if I take into account the central atom also. So, now what happens if I track this number of total number of atoms the number of atoms which sit on the surface and better still the percentage of atoms on the surface. So, here I am making up what is known as a bottom of approach therefore, I track the number of shells here on the x axis. So, I start with 1 shell 2 shell 3 shell and go up to a small number of shells say for instance about 12 shells. So, here I maintaining a polyhedral shape at each stage the first stage of course, is the what you might call the coordination polyhedral around the central atom in an cubic closed pack crystal which is a cuboctahedron and when you go higher and higher up there are the symmetry remains the same for the coordination shells, but you have more and more atoms being added and at those stages you will see that the fraction of the surface atoms is going to reduce or as we are plot here the percentage of the surface atoms is going to reduce. So, let us see first the total number of atoms which is given by this curve here and as you can see obviously, it is a cubic function then it increases initially of course, you start with the number of atoms on the surface and I will mark this number of atoms on the surface by a red line you see that the number of atoms on the surface is 0 of course, if I want to treat and you can see that the number of atoms on the surface is going to increase drastically. So, after a few truncation say for instance about 12 truncations now if I see the number of percentage of the atoms sitting on the surface you see that the percentage actually decreases. So, this surface the surface atoms is on the right hand side initially of course, when I have for instance just one layer I could treat all the atoms on the surface as total number of atoms. So, you will get 100 percent atoms sitting on the surface of course, we initially take that the one atom sitting inside the bulk, but you see that as we increase the number of layers the percentage of atoms comes down and only about 20 percent of the atoms are actually sitting on the surface by the time you are in 12 layers. So, it is very clear that in the bottom of approach as I add more and more shells the percentage of atoms sitting on the surface is going to drastically reduce with the number of shells I add and this implies that the effect of surface atoms is also going to reduce and the energy of the particle is correspondingly going to reduce because now overall Gibbs free energy the surface contribution is going to be less and I will find the atom the this particle is more and more stable as I go to larger and larger sizes. Now, just to put these things in numbers if I have number and I am trying to go to large numbers here. So, I am starting with about 10 shells which we had considered in the previous graph and going up to say about 10000 or more shells, but when it is about 10 shells the total number of atoms about 3000 the number of surface atoms is about 812 or 800 and about more than 25 percent of the atoms are sitting on the surface. So, it is a drastic fraction of the atoms which are sitting on the surface when I have 10 shells, but you can see the reduction I got about 100 shells the fraction of percentage of the atoms sitting on the surface only 3 percent and that was I am talking about 10000 atoms this fraction is very small and for many many calculations related to energy etcetera. I may want to effectively ignore this surface contribution to energy. So, but this is not possible obviously when you are in the regime about 100 shells wherein there would be a correction involved to the total number of atoms which are not having their bonds fully satisfied. Essentially the increase in numbers in the percentage surface atoms directly relate to the enhance surface activity thus leading to improved catalysis chemical reaction diffusivity biological response sensitivity etcetera. Therefore, it is very clear that many of this what you call the important effects which can come because we are using nano materials comes from this aspect of the what you may call the surface. And this can put this can be safely put into this category which we had seen before in the classification as change in size can directly lead to a change in performance. And this performance as we just now pointed out could be adsorption of gases, but here we are effectively ignoring the fact that when you are reducing the size in fact the specific surface energy could actually change. And if there is a drastic reduction in the specific surface energy then I may have to use this root C wherein my change in size is going to lead to change in specific surface energy which will further lead to a change in performance. So, this is at least two of these classes are nicely explained by the fact that when you make a volume calculation or the number of particles calculation we see that there is a drastic change. Now, so far we have considered for instance two geometries which is the geometry of a spherical particle or the geometry of a what you might call a polyhedral particle which we considered was a cuboctahedral kind of starting shape. In general of course, we will as we have seen when we classified nano particles we said they can come in very many different kind of geometries there can be nano flowers, nano bows, nano strings, nano rods etcetera. So, three of these general shapes I have taken up here and obviously, this is not an exhaustive kind of a list out here, but I want to see that what can be what can happen when I have these three kind of general kind of shapes with respect to their trend lines as you reduce the particle and here we are of course, we are interested in the area per unit volume. So, the shapes you are consider here are sphere cylinder and cube and we are tracking the surface to volume ratio. For the case of a sphere the area is given by 4 pi r square and the volume is 4 by 3 pi r cube and therefore, we have already seen that the area per unit volume is 3 by r that means, it is a 1 by r kind of a dependence. For a cylinder and now I am talking about reducing the diameter of the cylinder of course, we can also cut the cylinder in its length. I may take a cylinder and to produce a nano dimensional particle I am actually do cutting at various stages I may cut here then I may cut here then cut here then cut here and therefore, I will obtain a disc which is now nano metric in thickness, but that is not what I am doing here I am actually reducing the radius and therefore, the critical parameter I am tracking here is the radius and now I am seeing how does the area per unit volume change as I am reducing. So, the h remains constant in this case. So, my area is given by 4 pi r square h the volume is 4 2 pi r h and therefore, the cylinder would have a by v as 2 by r. For a cube there are 3 dimensions and of course, I am still maintaining it as a cube as I am reducing the dimension I am not changing it is geometry and I can track my a by v and I can see that the area is 6 l square because now I have 6 of these surfaces the volume is l cube and therefore, it is a 6 by l. So, it is clear by considering these 3 geometries that if I am talking about different kind of critical various types of critical dimensions and of course, when I mean various types here I am talking about the radius of the cylinder it is radius of the sphere and here is the edge of the cube the functional behavior is very very similar. Of course, we can clearly see that the factor involved is very different here it is a factor of 6 here it is a factor of 2 here is a factor of 3, but for these simple geometries which I have considered here the functional behavior is very very similar, but just because the functional behavior is similar I should not conclude that the enhancement in property or any one of those things is going to be similar because of some reasons which are obvious by looking even at these geometries here for instance the number of dimensions in which the curvature is increasing is just 1. So, the curvature is increasing in one dimension effectively the curvature is flat on the other dimension therefore, more and more bonds will be unsatisfied in the direction of the curvature we do this curvature, but the other direction it would be a flat kind of a dimension, but in the case of sphere the curvature is increasing in all 3 dimensions. So, as a particle size is reduced there is more and more bonds of the atom sitting on the surface which is going to be unsatisfied and therefore, the energy of this particle and the reactivity of these particles may be more. In the case of a cube as you can see there is no change in curvature involved because all surface phases happen to be flat and they continue to be flat and, but the important point to notice here is that the topology of this kind of an object tells you that there are certain lower dimensional entities to be taken into account when you are dealing with a cube like for a cube has an edge. An edge atom sitting on the edge obviously, have bonding much worse than that of atom sitting in the face. So, and the other point to be noted is the corner and bonding of atom sitting on the corner is going to be worse than that of the atom sitting on the edge. And therefore, if I have a single cube I have only of course, 8 corners, but I am suppose I am not reducing the dimension of the cube, but splitting this cube then I will notice that more and more atoms will actually sit in the corner. And therefore, just by merely looking at the functional dependence I cannot conclude that all the properties changes will be identical. The property changes will obviously, depend on the specific geometry I am considering. And as you can see here the geometry puts in additional parameters which I need to consider for instance the dimensions in which the curvature is going to change the number of lower dimensional entities in the object like for instance an edge or a corner. And for instance in more complicated situation even a surface may have additional entities like ledges and surfaces, ledges and kinks we for about which we will talk about in an upcoming lecture. Therefore, the summary of this slide is that I need to talk about not only a reduction in particle size I need to talk about various geometries which can lead to my nanoparticles for instance I may take a nanowire and actually split it into make a nanoparticle. And it is the effect of a specific property coming from specifically these kind of a reduction in dimension. Once more error of course, in the case of cylinder is that actually the formulas got inverted now we have actually this is the volume of the cylinder. And therefore, I need to invert this formula to get my functional dependence which is now 2 by r. Now, we have seen some of the advantages some of the beautiful things about the nanoworld, but we would like to list comprehensively or as far as possible the disadvantages and challenges which faces when we are entering the nanoworld. These are as important as actually knowing about the advantages. And as we shall soon see that more often than not in the excitement of a new discovery we may actually miss some of the problems which are associated with this which can actually be potentially harmful in the longer. So, everything is not rosy about nanomaterials there are many shortcomings and challenges which need to be addressed for successful and wide spread use of nanomaterials. So, what are these challenges we will let us list them. So, the issues related to the nanomaterials are first and foremost difficulty in synthesis and isolation. To start with synthesis of nanostructures nanoparticles and nanomaterials is considerably more difficult as compared to their conventional bulk counterparts. This is of course, needless to say because here we are talking about the dimension which is extremely small. And therefore, we are actually going to put in considerably more effort in actually synthesizing nanostructures and nanoparticles. Additionally, if the synthesis of nanoparticles has been carried out in a solution it is extremely difficult to retain the size of the nanoparticles. So, once having synthesize it often becomes a challenge that we have to retain the size and retain the size of course, during synthesis and later on of course, as we shall see during the service of the actual nanoparticle in certain intended application. In applications where the particles need to be of the same size obtaining a narrow size distribution poses additional challenges. More often than not we do not want particles of various sizes to coexist because if I am depending on for instance a absorption of a specific wavelength or I am talking about a certain other kind of a property which is now going to be dependent on the grain size. If I have a too wide a grain size variation or too many particle sizes involved then I will obviously not get the specific property enhancement which I am looking for. Therefore, I want to get a narrow size distribution and this is definitely a challenge when it comes to nanomaterials. In polycrystalline materials example, for instance I am talking about the grain size in nanometers grain growth can take place during their processing. So, as we already said if I am talking about a nanopolycrystalline then the interface area is very large the grain boundary area is very large this automatically implies that the diffusion is going to be very large along the interface and grain growth can also take place. This means that even though I have synthesized my nanomaterial before I even put it into application I would see that the grain size would have increased and I am no longer having a nanostructured material, but I would be having a grain size which could have already increased to a micron size. And this would imply that the nano scale has been destroyed. For example, when dulled nanostructured materials will produced by sintering of nano crystal grain both becomes a serious issue. There are many, many synthesis techniques and alternate lectures may talk about them in this course wherein I have not produced a bulk nanostructured material, but I have actually produced a powder which has either a the powder grain size itself, the grain sizes in nanometers meters or the particle size in nanometers. And when I want to synthesize a bulk material out of this I need to sinter the material. And when I am trying to sinter obviously, I am exposing the material to high temperatures. So, this will lead not only to sintering of the particles, but also it may lead to for instance loss of nano structure and this means that certain conventional techniques may not be suitable for making nanostructured materials. The second issue I have to deal with is the instability of the particles. Nanoparticles especially metal nanoparticles are very reactive. In fact, in some cases they could be so reactive that they can even lead to an explosion. So, there are safety issues also involved here i.e. they are that is they are thermodynamically metastable. And as we are we just made a calculation we know that this is an increase in the surface area and with the increase in surface area the number of atoms who are poorly bonded increases thus making my nanoparticle very reactive. The kinetics associated with nanomaterials also rapid like we have already seen with respect to diffusion surface diffusion plays an important part. Fine metal particles can even be explosive going to the high surface area coming direct contact with oxygen which is now an exothermic reaction. So, when I am dealing with this nanoparticles the reaction need not be slow it can even be explosive. Nanomaterials have a poor corrosion resistance and prone to phase change. We already seen that when you reduce the particle size then actually a different kind of crystal structure may be stabilized. And additionally because of the large surface area they are poor in corrosion resistance. Hence, it is challenging to retain particles in the nanoscale and to maintain properties of the nanomaterials during service in an internet hub. And I mean you are talking about an application is actually involved long time scales. So, we are talking about actually a component in service and therefore, we are really talking about large time scales. The next issue related to nanomaterials is the presence of impurities. As stated before nanoparticles have very active surface leading to adsorption and absorption and I am talking even of gases. Additionally, once a species has been adsorbed on the surface of a nanoparticle the path length for diffusion required to take the species to the center of the particle is small. Even this aspect we have talked about before that means that the entire nanoparticle may be easily contaminated. And this is a serious issue because the species being adsorbed on the surface is soluble in the material it will be taken to the center of the nanoparticle. And the entire particle may now be contaminated with respect to the impurity which may have obviously a deleterious effect on the properties I am considering. Often nanoparticles are very reactive as well thus making it very difficult to maintain a pristine surface. And when I am talking reactive actually there could be formation of oxides, nitrides etcetera on the surface. And hence it is not only challenging to synthesize pure nanoparticles but also to keep it pure during service in an intended application. So, this is a very serious issue with regard to nanoparticles that I have to protect it in some way from allowing impurities to come on the surface. And this is not only to be done during synthesis but also during an intended application which could involve long time scales. The next issue is that many of the biologically many of the nanoparticles or nanomaterials having a nano entity could actually be biologically harmful. Nanoparticles can be potentially harmful a cell dermis is permeable to them these sizes being so small they actually get into the human cell or a cell of an animal or a cell of a living being. And there may be no natural defense to the penetration of these particles into the biological system. Toxicity of nanoparticles is enhanced due to the high surface area and activity. Here of course I am talking about two kind of particles which are of course benign in the micro scale but become somewhat toxic when you go to the nano scale. And those other particles which are toxic anyway in the macro scale therefore when you go down to the nano scale they may tend to become even more active and therefore even more toxic. Hence nanoparticles have been shown to cause irritate and examples of these kind of bad effects is one of these is that nanoparticles have been shown to cause irritation to tissue and they can even be carcinogenic. If inhale they may be entrapped in the lungs and they cannot be expelled out of the body. Their interaction with liver blood could also prove to be harmful. So, there are lot of studies which need to be carried on further to actually establish the toxicity of these particles, their interaction with various kind of cells in the body. They are not only short term acute effects but also the chronic effects coming from repeated exposure to these nanoparticles. And this area of biological what you might call the effect of nanoparticles of course originally not intended even to be like it is not a drug delivery particle or one of those particles which is originally intended to be put into a human system or an animal system. Their effects is studies on these aspects is barely begun and therefore and especially the chronic studies are nowhere near complete and therefore we really do not know that what wrong could go what wrong could happen. If some of these particles are somehow entrapped in a human system like we said in the lungs of a human being as we had pointed out. And more importantly how much of such a material could be tolerated by the body is also not known. Therefore, this biological aspect needs lot more of study and we need to characterize various kind of nanoparticles that we are producing for totally different applications in terms of their for instance effects on a human system or an animal system. Another area which is again lacking considerable study is the recycling and safe disposal. Given that the age of nanomaterials has only just done that means we are just barely scratch the age of nanomaterials newer kinds of nanomaterials are being discovered virtually every day. And hence there is a lack of availability of set procedures or policies for safe disposal of nanomaterials. Often initially of course these nanomaterials are just made in a few milligrams or even smaller quantities. And therefore, nobody is really worrying about what will happen if this kind of a material where you know produced in a larger quantity wherein we have to worry about issues like recycling or even issue of how do we dispose of these particles once of course my research or my intended testing is over. Issues regarding their toxicity are still being hotly debated and detailed studies of exposure experiments are not yet available. And this we had cited as an example when you talk about the biological effects. As most of the current research and studies are devoted towards developing newer materials and allied technologies very little thought has been put into aspects like recycling and safe disposal. So, the current shortcoming is not that we cannot study them, but most of our efforts are not going in this direction. We are just trying to develop new materials we are trying to put them into newer applications. And we are never there is no what you might call question pause and question being asked that what if such a material were to come into human contact or in contact with other living organisms. And hence these issues need serious and immediate attention. So, this is one of the areas where it is it is almost imperative that we do lot of research, we do lot of studies regarding safe disposals regarding recycle recycling and also regarding the effect of nano materials on various kind of living beings. So, unless this aspect is conclusively proven that there is a beneficial effect without what you may call much of deleterious effect. And if there is deleterious effect then how do I deal with it the age of nano materials can fully never be beneficial. So, there are some challenges which we need to address before nano materials can find why to produce. And these challenges which are basically coming from some of the issues which we have already stated are consistency in quality. We need consistency in quality and control over chemistry size structure microstructure and morphology of the nano materials. So, variety of these nano materials have been produced in small quantities, but you know when we try to scale up the production we need a control over the quality of these nano particles or nano materials. And we need a control over the chemistry we need a control over the size we need to control over the structure and microstructure. And finally, the morphology when we will begin to say that we have understood all aspects of nano structured materials. We need fast and inexpensive characterization techniques at the research stage it is of course there is not a problem at all. I may actually use techniques like transmission electron microscopy where in you know it is a time consuming costly kind of procedure which I am using or an atomic force microscope or Auger electron spectroscopy which are very costly equipments very what you might call involving lot of at times lot of specimen preparation before it material can be put for testing. But in the long run I need fast and inexpensive characterization techniques to ascertain if the parameters mentioned about like chemistry size structure microstructure and morphology have been achieved fast and inexpensive characterization tools need to be developed. So, when a factory production line for instance I cannot use any of these tools to characterize my material which is coming out of the assembly line. And therefore, I need some newer techniques or modified version of some of these techniques which will give me a fast characterization a fast handle on all these various properties and parameters which I need to control. This is keeping in with the effort and cost associated with some of the current techniques. So, there is the capital investment the specimen preparation time the amount of material which can be tested at a single time all these are poor in some of these techniques. And therefore, definitely we need some inexpensive characterization technique which can give me quick results and quick results I mean sometimes even when the assembly line is rolling. So, further challenges which we need to address is the scaling of production often synthesis of nano materials require special processing and techniques which can restrict the thickness of bulk nano structure components to a few millimeters. As the size of the as the size increases prolonged heat treatment results in grain coarsening and loss of nano structure. Eventually, either secondary processing is required to break down the bulk structure into nano structure or we require multiple processing to retain the initial nano structure. Hence, scaling of production remains a challenge. For example, if I were to use MOSI to nano particles as a nano ball bearing the production can easily be scaled up to a few kilograms. When I say easily of course, I do not mean very easily, but definitely with some effort we can actually scale it up to a few kilograms. But for successful commercial application this needs to be scaled up a few orders of magnitude. So, it is very very clear that in some niche applications where I need very small quantity of material nano materials are already achieving quite a bit considerable amount of success. But for a what we might say widespread application of nano materials it is clear that I need to have a scaling of production. I may be talking about tons of materials being produced and each of these tons of batches actually has somewhere at its heart a nano structure or a nano material or some length scale which is nano and each one of them obviously is going to have some special property. And either during my synthesis or during further processing to actually take the material and make a component I should not have a loss of nano structure. So, these are some of the challenges which are very serious and have to be addressed before we see that nano materials and can be used in a day to day life in a widespread manner. If as we have noted before that most of the time nano materials and nano structures are not produced by the usual routes used for producing bulk components. Suppose I were to produce for instance a bulk component I may use something like an injection molding or a simple casting or some kind of a forging. But we would notice that when you want to produce nano structured materials for instance suppose I want a grain size in the order of nano meters I may use some severe plastic deformation technique. And when I am talking about severe plastic deformation then I am limiting myself I am introducing a new processing technique and not relying on my conventional processing which I have used over the years for conventional production. So, one way is to co-op these techniques the conventional methods in a new form to actually produce nano materials. If existing processing techniques can be put to the use in the case of nano materials this would lead to considerable savings in effort and cost. Conventional processing techniques typically involve long time scales or high temperatures. But as nano materials are not thermodynamic in the state of thermodynamic equilibrium there is always a tendency for grain coarsening or phase transformation. Hence or in other words a loss of the nano structure in the general sense. Hence it is imperative to develop variants of current techniques which involve high pressure and low temperatures and which also will give me nano structured bulk material in a short time scale. So, not only do I have to scale up the production using the new techniques I have developed, but also try to somehow co-opt the existing techniques by modifying the processing parameters by modifying various processing steps. So, that I can use them as well in the in production of nano structured materials. The obvious advantage would be that I can use my existing production lines I can use my existing capital investment with of course, modifications to them. Therefore, I would have a considerable saving in terms of my overall integration of the new technology into an existing production line on an existing industry. So, this is another challenge which remains in front of us and very few people are actually what you might call working on these areas where they are trying to use existing processing methods to get nano structured materials. One class of materials which we have seen which are very interesting, but are equally difficult to synthesize are the hierarchical structures. Biology as we noted is abound with some of these hierarchical structures, but when it comes to production of these this definitely is a big challenge. As we have seen that structures at various length scales combined in a hierarchical fashion to provide an exceptional performance at the bulk scale. At the same time features represent these individual features represent various length scales like nano, micro and bulk are essentially to allow for their synergistic contribution. So, these various length scale give rise to a synergistic contribution. For example, we have seen the knacker structure is composed of calcite layers glued by nano layers of protein in a cement brick platelet structure which provides for its exceptional toughness or an impact resistance. But engineering such as structure has appeared almost next to impossible because the arrangement of nano platelets with an interlayer of a soft material like glue like material is highly complicated. Further it is not that I am just going to arrange these layers in a one localized region, but I need to arrange them in a larger length scale. So, as to give rise to different orientations that allow retaining this composite structure with exceptional toughness in spite of the constituents being brittle. Hence hierarchical synthesis across different length scale processes even more serious engineering and manufacturing challenges. So, when it comes to normal nano structured materials where we have a single length scale to deal with it is difficult enough, but I am when I am talking about a hierarchical structure these issues are compounded the manufacturing issues the issues of you know even making it in a lab scale becomes even more difficult. So, it is very clear that in spite of the exceptional properties I get from hierarchical structures there if I have to see them used in a real industrial scale, then I have to worry about much more serious issues. Many of you must have been exposed to the fact that I need to manipulate nano particles and nano structures. So, this manipulation is itself an issue often nano particles nano structure need to be handled individually and further these need to be arranged in a precise way. And here of course, I am not talking about those kind of nano structures and nano materials which are called comes under the class of self assemble nano structures. There in of course, in the case of self assemble nano structures there is a propensity for the material itself to arrange in a particular configuration given a certain kind of a processing condition. And there of course, I have do not have to worry about arranging these nano particles in an external way, but here in normal cases I may want to arrange them I may want to manipulate them I want arrange them in a very precise configuration may be in two dimension and sometime even in three dimensions. The manipulation of individual nano particles requires a probe to pick then to hold and translate rotate the nano particle nano structure. And hence control the control unit must be equipped with the nano meter size forceps like structures. So, I need some kind of a manipulator which is nano sized which can hold this particles translate it rotate it if necessary and locate it in a precise position in my assembly. And of course, this has to be done without damaging or altering the nano structure nano particle. So, I have to obviously keep my nano structure pristine while the entire processing. This is a challenging task requesting sophisticated instrumentation and hence handling of nano materials into certain organization becomes highly challenging. And needless to say that when I am actually dealing with single nano particles being an arranged in an array. Obviously, the process going to be time consuming and this is not what you may call amenable to mass scale production. So, we have to come up with newer techniques wherein I am able to actually do such a process in a fast time scale. So, that I am able to produce many of these components which is done by a precise arrangement of these nano structures or nano particles. Perhaps, we have already talked about this aspect when we said that that we need recycling and safe disposal. But, we just reiterate the aspect here that recycling still remains a serious issue nano materials tend to agglomerate and the recycling does not face a problem in this regard. But, when used without proper control especially if released in the atmosphere or into the water system their effects could be highly deleterious. And especially in this regard the important problem remains that they are not enough studies to conclude that if they are even deleterious or not. So, this aspect is not even been studied in the case of many nano materials. Hence, certain policies not only using, but also disposal of nano materials need to be aware. So, far there are what you may say there are no strict what norms for using them, there are no norms for recycling them, there are no policies in the regard to government that what kind of nano materials can be released in the atmosphere, what kind of nano materials need to be protected, what kind of nano materials need to be agglomerated before they are released and what kind of other procedures need to especially we need to evolve with regard to nano materials. And now, we are talking about policies extending across countries which is what is lack currently lacking. Selectively isolating nano materials and evolving procedure for the recycling is going to be one of the important challenges ahead. So, the challenge is one of scientific importance and also one of as I said governmental policies which is now going to play a very important role in the coming years when we are talking about widespread use of nano structures and nano materials.

Hello, I'm Dr. John Feller. I'm the Chief Medical Officer for Halo Diagnostics, and I'd like to talk to you a little bit today about prostate cancer. So you might say, well, why prostate cancer? Well, it turns out, prostate cancer after skin cancer is the second most common diagnosed cancer worldwide. And in addition, it's the second most common cause of cancer death in men after lung cancer. Turns out, one in nine men during his lifetime will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. And about one in 32 men, unfortunately, will still die from their disease. In 2019, we have emergence of a great combination of a screening blood test called the serum PSA, a new type of MRI called multi-parametric MRI of the prostate, MR-targeted biopsy of the prostate gland. And then in the research area, image-guided focal therapy of the prostate gland, including MRI-guided laser focal therapy, that are all very exciting topics that I'd like to discuss with you today.

Good morning, thank you for joining us today. I'm here with Trevor Jones, CEO of Lynx, a company that you may not have heard of, but like big predator cats, it's stalking you. So Trevor, I know that the company specializes in the junction of artificial intelligence and ESG, environmental, social, and governance issues. Tell me how that works. Yeah, absolutely. So we have a lot of functions in our data suite for the Lynx platform that allows junior, mid-tier, and major minors to go out and collect data from all kinds of different places. So we have folks that are entering data in the field, we have sensors, there's satellite images, all kinds of data that we can procure from the wild, so to speak. And we put that all in one database and one centralized, aggregated platform so both folks on the ground and managers in C-suite can see all of the data that pertains, not just ESG but health and safety and all kinds of other aspects, non-geologic aspects at the mine site, too. And then we are using some new artificial intelligence tools that have come on the market recently and these will help our users do things like query large amounts of data. And it's also going to help with our support functions as we support teams around the world like in Indonesia, so we're not getting up in the middle of the night and answering queries about exactly what's going on with the platform. Several new things coming down the pike on the artificial intelligence front, pretty excited about that. Oh, that sounds really useful. So what you're saying basically is it goes beyond just ESG or it makes broader ESG teams, really. Yeah, I think we've all been using and kind of manipulating this ESG acronym for a few years now and really it has to do with a broad-based view of replacing spreadsheets and notebooks. So whether it's ESG data, health and safety data, even security and risk, you know we were talking before, it's just all spread out. It's in a bunch of different places. There's just a need to kind of put it in one place to have that aggregated on the ground picture, a complete picture of what's going on at the mine site. Well, speaking of things being spread out, I know one of the very valid complaints by mining companies is that there's such a plethora of standards that they're expected to comply with in terms of ESG reporting. Is Lynx doing anything to help with this problem? 100% really glad you asked about that. So it's absolutely challenging alphabet soup out there for companies to go understand which standards apply to which parts of their business. The way the Lynx platform helps is just by entering one piece of data, you're going to align that entry to a number of preconfigured standards. So without getting into the actual acronyms, because we could probably take the rest of the interview doing that, you know, if there's a greenhouse gas emission, there's going to be multiple standards that that particular event aligns to. So with a click of a button, the user can just go ahead and check off those checkpoints, those key waypoints that they want to see on the different standards that are out. So essentially it's kind of consolidating based on common points of interest between different standards? Yeah, absolutely. And I think this is really going to save our clients a lot of time and money, frankly, with all due respect to the great consulting work that's going out there. That can get pretty costly if you think about all the different standards and kind of the audit versus performance versus reporting standards too. So rather than have a consultant for each one of those to kind of look through spreadsheets and notebooks to compile that at the end of the year, we're doing it real time, you know, on the ground as that data is uploaded. OK, I just heard a really key word. I just heard real time. So how real time is this? If I'm sitting in the C-suite and I need to know something, how real time is this? Yeah, absolutely. I'll use an example. We have a client that's based out of Oslo and they have an asset in Ethiopia. When those events or those pieces of data are added on the ground in Southwestern Ethiopia, the management team in Oslo can see that pretty much immediately, right? So it's real time or near real time. We want to get rid of these six to eighth month reporting lag times in mining. We can do a lot better, I think, as an industry in just getting that data front of decision makers in a quick, rapid fashion. Absolutely. And it strikes me, particularly as someone who has lived in Africa, that this could also be really useful in being aware of a problem before it becomes a crisis and being able to make plans and launch actions to deal with it. Yeah, I couldn't have said it better, Mel, and you would know, given your experience, I think the real time risk mitigation, right? So surfacing events that are of urgency to decision makers in real time is certainly a big part of the platform. So in addition to being comprehensive with everything that's happening at the site, we also want to make sure things that need to be taken care of. And typically, this could fall under social license or security issues, or it depends, of course, on the geography and jurisdiction. But of course, we want to get those issues the top of the list of the database and notify stakeholders as well. So what it sounds like to me is that what makes links unique is real time capability, allowing for forward planning and responsiveness and associated cost savings. Is that a fair summer? I would say I couldn't have said it better myself. We might have to try to get you over the links to get on the software for a smell. But yeah, absolutely. Let's create efficiencies in the field. Let's surface those risks to decision makers. And let's also get away from spreadsheets and notebooks. We know we love our field notebooks in this industry. And I hear really great, actually, fantastic stories from geologists about how they're using their notebooks. But those notebooks get lost. They're disparate. They're disorganized. We've got to put that in one spot, especially for regulation for compliance. And for finance, too, I know we're sitting here at Investor Intel. There's a lot of efficiency gains to be made by finance to go ahead and see this data in digital format instead of on a notebook. Awesome. Well, best of luck to links going forward. Well, it's always great to talk to you. Glad we got to sit down. Thanks.

Now, the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture has signed a memorandum of understanding with the American University of Nigeria to address food insecurity in North East Nigeria. IITA is to set up a research station at the institution's campus and also extend the operations of the agricultural research institution to the North East. Speaking at the event, the President of the American University of Nigeria, Dr. Margie Essen, said that the agreement between IITA and AUN is to address the challenge of food insecurity and malnutrition threatening the North East. This is as a result of decade-long insurgency, which has affected the livelihoods of a vast population and agricultural productivity. It is staggering, ladies and gentlemen, faculty, staff and students, to realize that more than half the children in this state, in this region, will never reach their full potential. It has to end, and I believe this partnership has great potential to turn this around. This is because the solutions are known. We know how to do this. Training farmers, providing the right seeds and inputs, including finance to increase agricultural yields, improving education for women and children, improving access to health and clean water. The strength that we both bring to this partnership, I believe, can lead to major improvements in all of these areas. Ken told me his motto is zero hunger. Our motto is education for all. We can do it. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news. Please do subscribe to our YouTube channel, and don't forget to hit the notification button so you get notified about fresh news updates.

and we're live on YouTube. All right, welcome everyone to the Q&A with CODA sessions, speaking about common problems CODAs encounter and how we overcome them. I'm Matt Lloyd-Jones, I'll be the chair in this session and I'll let the CODAs introduce themselves. So Matt, great job first. Yeah, hi, I'm Matt Granger, a researcher at the NENA, the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research in Trondheim. Thank you. I guess I'll go next. I'm Caitlin here, I'm a postdoc at the University of Edinburgh with the Camera Addies Group. And I'll go last, so my name's Chris Pritchard, I'm a senior lecturer at Nottingham Trent University. Right, yeah, so just to remind you of the sessions on common problems that don't encounter and how they overcome them. Yeah, to start you off, I've got a question. What is the most common problem you encounter when writing code? Maybe... I guess I've got one, is silly things like missing commas, semicolons or brackets. Is probably my favourite one. And I think with R and particularly with Shiny, you can very easily miss a comma. And then it gives you a very cryptic-looking error message. And you have to kind of crawl your way through, trying to work out where this missing comma is. And for other languages, it can be similar. So Python's very sensitive to spaces, for example. So yeah, it's kind of syntax-y things, I think, am I my big bugbear? Yeah, maybe Caitlin next. I think, honestly, I have to say that it's like the exact same problem, where it's the silliest syntax things. Also in R, I guess, when to quote and when not to quote sometimes, isn't that clear in different functions? And yeah, just getting things round the wrong way. Also the equal sign. For some reason, I always just put one equal sign, even though for most things, when you're evaluating, it's two equal signs. So that's something I constantly get wrong. It's very annoying. And Matt? Yeah, I think probably the same answer, really, is those sort of syntax sort of problems. It's often scarier when your code runs, but doesn't do what you thought it would do. And you can't actually work out why it's doing what it's doing, let alone why it's not doing what you thought it should do. So it's those sort of problems that are fairly common. And yeah, trying to remember different functions and which way they round the go. And I always get some of the tidyverse functions the wrong way around constantly, like rename. It's just not logical to me. I get it wrong all the time. Yeah. So it's just those sort of syntax issues that are the biggest problems. I think one of the ways I tend to get round it and I don't know about you guys, but so I use Visual Studio Code. I know a lot of people use RStudio or similar for R, but I find having syntax highlighting on can be really helpful. And I think trying to stick to a sort of style guide. So using like the tidyverse style guide or and using a package like linter or styler to make sure your code meets those style guides can make it really easy to spot when you're missing something because you go, hang on a second, the brackets don't line up and you'll be able to kind of work out where you're missing thing is from there. So I think that's one of the ways to kind of overcome it is to be neat and tidy with your code and use these style guides. And it can be quite tedious and particularly when you wanna build something in a hurry and the fun bits always the problem solving and the building it, not the writing out brackets and commas and stuff, but it pays dividends in the future when you try and run your code and you're like, yes, the issue is that bracket there because it's not there rather than, oh no, which of these 10 functions has a missing thing? Yeah, that leads nicely on to the next question about where do you go for helpful solutions? So maybe Matt? Yeah, Mr. Google is our friend. And I mean, there's no problem you run into that no one else has ever come across before. Well, very rarely I think there's a problem that you come across that's something entirely new. So there is help out there. Obviously Stack Overflow is one place people go to. Sometimes I don't find the solutions I want there, but just Googling it usually finds, if not a solution, then something that explains what's going on a little bit. That's my go-to. Yeah, I mean, I come in there, I think one of the things when you're a beginner that can be difficult is knowing what to Google. And yeah, Samrat Pawar, who is an Imperial College, he used to teach his students to like learn to Google these problems that you don't know how to phrase them, even have the vocabulary to phrase the problem. Yeah, I think for me, that's been like, one of the biggest things that I've learned because I always feel like I don't really know R. I just know how to Google, like how to find the information. So yeah, I think that's the Googling and knowing, yeah, knowing how to phrase it. Like, what are you actually trying to do? Yeah, like just to give like one example earlier today, like my student is trying to code like forest plot for her meta analysis. And we were getting really stuck at how to like make it a bit more compressed as we kept calling it, like compress the forest plot. But obviously, if you Google that, you get all this stuff about compressing the image and that was not what we were looking for at all. And I was like, oh, maybe it's like the lines that we eventually worked out. We had to Google it in a different way to make sure that we were referring to how do we limit the spaces between the points. You know, so it's that sort of thing that can get confusing if you don't want to Google. You really have to have like an understanding of what's going on under the bonnet kind of thing to be able to think about what might be causing that problem. I think as well, one of the things that I've found is the error messages that you get can sometimes be really cryptic, but they're often quite helpful. So especially if you're using sort of an IDE or similar, it will often tell you which line the error is. And what I'd say with that is a lot of the time, actually the error is just before that, where you're missing something or it's running off. So that I think is a really handy one is read the error message. Don't be scared because it's a bunch of technical stuff that you don't understand. Often it's something really silly, like it will say unexpected word in line, whatever. Actually, if you look, your problem is probably just before that, where you've not done something properly, which is why the unexpected thing is happening because the compiler expects to find a bracket or a comma or a space or whatever between what you're doing and the next thing. And I think, you know, we're... Can I come in? Oh, yeah. I haven't put a camera to the question. So you're someone who's had, you were a professional coder before, right? So I've got a master's degree in computer science and I've done a bit of coding. The unique advantage in interpreting those error messages? Possibly. I would say that I did a lot of coding and then did my master's degree rather than I did a master's degree to learn how to code. So for me, I think a lot of it is just... It's come at us, don't be scared of things and just if you read it and Google it, it'll often tell you kind of what it means or at least a lot of what the common problem is. I still think a lot of what I know about coding is, you know, you kind of... It's been very much a picking up as you go along kind of thing. And as Caitlin said, you know, sometimes you don't feel like you really know a language. You just know how to Google about the answer. And you know, I think, you know, I know that I feel like that sometimes and I know that I've got friends and colleagues who work sort of full-time as developers and they kind of spend a lot of their time using Google or other search tools to kind of find an answer. So stack overflow is great and it's full of professional coders who have come across an error and are trying to fix it. And you know, I think the other thing is there's lots of really helpful resources out there for all the different languages you've got. So, you know, if you're using an R package, look at the manual, it generally speaking, people tend to be quite good at documenting what their functions do and how the argument should be presented for sort of web development. So JavaScript, CSS and HTML, attendees, the Mozilla developer network to find out what different tags and things do or how to do some stuff. So there's all these different kind of tools and resources out there to get to grips with some of the things. And I think the big thing is, if you want to do something, you probably will be able to do it. You just kind of need to know how to Google and in what language. And there's lots of commonalities between languages. You know, I hadn't picked up R at all until I started looking at the Prisma 2020 flow diagram app. And that was the first encounter I had with R. So, you know, it can be, I guess I come at it from a point of view of probably being familiar with quite a lot of different languages, more so than a lot of people perhaps watching the conference but I come across similar problems across all of them. And there's similar resources out there to help. There's a really good book online, a book called Something Like R for Graduate Students. And they have a chapter on troubleshooting common problems. That's really good. It has like just a list of all the common problems you might find. And yeah, it's things like having a capital letter instead of a small letter, making sure your objects in the right place and all that sort of stuff. So that's quite useful resource, I think. Another place I go for help is often Twitter and Macedalon now, I suppose as well. But yeah, there's always someone hanging around on Twitter who knows how to do something. So even if you don't know what the code is, you can describe what it is you want to do. And someone might be able to get you a little bit closer or all the way to the solution. So that's quite useful. Yeah, you've done that for me on Twitter a lot of times. Yeah, just following that, I guess. Yeah, so I guess we talked about Stack Overflow a bit. And I've actually got a question that was coming from Claudia Kepp on this. So she says, sometimes I feel like I am missing out on easy solutions for specific problems in data analysis for evidence synthesis. For example, problems with specific formats, such as dot-ris. I feel like Stack Overflow is not actually the right place to ask a question for such a specific topic. Where do you find support and information for such specific issues? Who do you ask when you start? Maybe Caitlin? I mean, I don't want to just say Google again, but that is what I tend to do. But I think, obviously there's a whole community of people as part of this conference who would have some expertise. So maybe, I don't know if going forward, maybe we should try and use ourselves as a resource a little bit more to help each other out in the evidence synthesis space because we all know something about evidence synthesis and are trying to solve some of our issues with R. So yeah, I haven't really done that so far, but we should do that, I would say. Yeah, I think for some of the really specific issues, it can be really helpful to ask the community. The other thing is kind of, we keep saying Google, but if you search things like GitHub and stuff, you might have other projects working on similar things where people have come across specific issues. I know when I've been bashing my head against the brick wall trying to solve a problem and I've searched for kind of what the issue is and a lot of the time it will be a thing that's present in other projects and they'll talk about it. And sometimes it can be as simple as, oh, you're trying to use something that's actually in the newer version of your dependency and have you updated your dependency and other things can be just picked up from the issues section of various projects if they've come across bugs. But I think that yeah, stack overflow can be great, but I think you're right that for really, really niche questions about really specific things, it maybe isn't the right space for those questions and that's where Twitter, Master Don and the Slack and this conference can be really helpful with the networking because you've kind of got those people that you can kind of phone a friend about. Yeah, I think I'm just going to guess what this question is. Maybe it's talking specifically around like Braille re-initiative information, specialist type issue, so like there's bibliography. And I guess maybe there isn't the equivalent, I don't know maybe there is space for those conversations. I can tell you that there's a medical librarian's discord that seems quite active. So there's loads of spaces that exist. Can we share a link to that? I'm sure I will find it, it was somewhere on Twitter once, so I'll try and find the links to that. I'll dig around as well. Matt, do you know of any other such spaces? No, but yeah, I can echo really what Caitlin said, we are a community that Esmeralda has a large community now, it's increasing every year. If you were to send an email to one of us, I'm sure we could actually, if we don't know the answer, we could work out one who might know the answer and two we can probably work out the code. Yeah, just ask if you have a problem with any of these sort of things, we've probably all come across the same problem too, and solved it eight million different ways as well. So there's not just one solution, I think some people don't really sort of realise or understand that there isn't one solution to any of the problems. There's often like multiple solutions and they're equally as valid. So we can find solutions for you, it will work for you. I'll move on, I've had another question, I'm in. And yeah, it's just going back to sort of Matt had introduced a one book, a report on what book would you suggest for anyone to learn, who knows both of them. Can I be controversial? And say, you know, if you already know a programming language, a lot of the fundamentals are very similar and it's the weird syntax stuff that can kind of get sort of trip you up in things. So I found the best way to pick up R was actually just get stuck in to a project I found interesting and try and solve the problems and a bit of learn by doing. The great thing about this slightly different to sort of, I guess my day job as a paramedic is, you know, if things go wrong on your local copy of the code, it doesn't really matter. You can kind of go back and test it and try again. So one of the things, one of the ways that I've found really helpful, particularly as someone who kind of already has a familiarity with a variety of languages has been just kind of getting stuck in, finding a project I found interesting, cloning it, making some changes, adding a feature that I thought would be helpful. And that was how I got to grips with the R syntax and stuff because the basics are very similar. R has, you know, lets you install packages in the same way that you can in Python with PIP and you just need to kind of get to grips with some of the different syntaxes but the actual way that you'll solve problems still falls back to, you know, see if someone's written, someone's got a package that does it, if not, you know, fall back to your basic logic statements and try and get it done. So yes, there are some really helpful R books out there. I wouldn't personally know of any because I've not used any, but sometimes just getting stuck in can be a good way of learning. Okay, that's a good point. The vignette in the reticulate R package that actually looks at the difference between Python and R from an R users point of view, but I think it's probably equally as good from the Python users point of view. So it just tells you what those main differences are, the difference in indexing from zero or one, the difference in different syntax. So it's quite a useful little, yeah, short page vignette to understand the differences. Yeah, would you mind, do you have a link to that? You can pop in the chat, cheers. I'll distract everyone else while you're looking for that. I think I've got it, I'll send it to you, Matt. Great, thanks. Okay, so, right, do you have any practices or tips to make coding more efficient or streamlined to make it easier to sort of solving the problem with avoiding them in the first place? Work with other people. That's the biggest tip is that, I think working in teams really helps because everyone has a little bit of a different skill set. Yeah, and you learn a lot from working with other people. So you learn how to overcome some of these barriers and hopefully they might learn something from you. Not usually in my case, but that's not very good Coder. But I think there's something to be said to be working in collaborating in teams. Yeah, I think I agree with what Matt's saying but also for me, I also just find it really useful like looking through other people's code because like line by line trying to understand the way that they've solved a problem massively helps me because I feel like when I started learning R I sort of dived into it and I learned the tidy verse and then I didn't understand any of the base R stuff. So looking at the way that different people solve a problem either working with them or even just going through their code on GitHub and trying to like understand their thought processes. Like for some reason that's actually where I learned the most new code from and new solutions. So yeah, that would be my answer. Yeah, I think working with other people in collaboration is really good. I think another thing for me is, you know, set up your coding environment. And by that, I mean like, you know, so are you, as I said, I use Visual Studio Code but others use R Studio. Don't just go with the defaults. Like play around with the settings and stuff until you find something that works for you. So like for me, I'm a bit weird. I like coding on a black background with sort of other texts. Other people might like coding on white background on black text. Little things like that can make all the difference to making it more efficient for you. You know, I try and set up syntax highlighting for the languages that I use to make it. So I'm not just staring at a screen. It makes it much more clear where I'm maybe missing a comma or things like that. And also, if you set these things up right, you can often just hover over the things you're typing and it'll tell you what that function does. And little things like that, you know, if you've got that all in place, it can be really helpful. So as I said, I find Visual Studio Code really good for that because it's relatively lightweight and works across loads of different languages. So I could pick up a JavaScript project and work on that or an R project and work on that and it'd be a very similar environment. But I think that, yeah, the big thing is don't just settle with the defaults that the software designers have kind of thrown at you. You know, spend some time setting things up to look like how you like to work in a way that you like because that can make things much more streamlined and more medium forwards. Yeah, I guess related to that hardware. Sometimes it's nice to have another screen. If you have a luxury, I guess, yeah. One screen for your help, like you're Googling or one screen for your code, it does really speed things up. But yeah, it can be difficult, especially if you can move around or work in different places in a cafe or whatnot. Yeah. Okay, I'm gonna give priority to the questions coming in. So we have one in from Shreya Dimary. And that is going back to your own code. Months later, no amount of comments can help if the script is a complex project. Fair point, I think. What are your suggestions? I'm commenting in a way where the code will become okay, like 2,000 lines of code, basically. Yeah, there's a related question that I'll ask her. I think, sorry, I guess I feel like I'm maybe talking quite a lot, but for me, I like my code to be quite readable. So for that, I mean, I'll stick to, as I said earlier, a style guide. And that helps not just for finding syntax errors, but also for following your code in a logical manner, because the way I look at it is, I shouldn't need to comment about my implementation of a function that should kind of stand alone and be obvious about what it does. I might, if there's a strange glitch, for example, when you're doing something quite low level, you might need to comment and say, why are you doing something strange? I don't know. But for the most part, I find that I don't tend to put comments within a function. I tend to have, describe what the function does. And then hopefully, it's small enough that the rest should kind of stand and be be kind of obvious in and of itself. I think my tip with functions and splitting stuff out into functions is one, don't be afraid of having some functions that you mark as sort of private or internal functions that are used by your package and that are subject to change and that aren't documented in the same way as your public functions, which should very rarely change in terms of their interface, not necessarily in terms of their implementation. And anything that you're gonna do in multiple places in your code should probably be split out into its own function. So if you find yourself writing the same set of five lines of code several times throughout your project, that should probably be a function. And that's kind of how I tend to work with it. So again, I'll take the example of the Prisma 2020 app. We had something that was quite, that had quite, that was basically repeated several times in the code. I split that out into an internal function that could then be reused. And then it means that when you're adding and changing things, you've only got to change it in one place. Yeah, that's something that I've learned quite recently is that using functions in a better way, but also having naming things so they make sense of what the thing is doing rather than just having maths function. It's what the function does. And having sensible names, it's sometimes hard, but having sensible names are your variable names. So I know that the variable is, for me, it's all about wildlife stuff, but maybe, yeah, harvest size or bag or whatever. But having something that is, so that I know what the hell I'm talking about. And it's not easy. And it's not something that comes naturally because you just like, you often have a data frame called BF or that. And that's not helpful to anyone, including yourself. But it takes a little while to learn that, I think. And it takes a little time. And I sort of echo what Chris is saying about the style using the styler is a revelation to me. So I've just started doing that recently and it's really helped me read code better. It's a good tip. Can we just clarify in the styler? But anyone who like me, who might never have heard of it. It's basically, it's an R package that you can run every time you make code changes. So sometimes even, I don't know if RStudio has integration with it, but you can even have your IDE like run it live on your code. And it basically pops out things that aren't like errors in the same way that compiler error is, but a lot of warnings that says, hang on, this line's too long or you should always try and use consistent variable names. So for example, one of the things you might have it configured to do, and I think might be the default, is it prefers like alternating capital words rather than underscores or vice versa. So that all your variables are consistently named rather than like some might be snake case and some might be underscores. Yeah, I guess we are one of the tricky things with comments is knowing how far to go. Like there's one thing describing what it does, but then should you also describe how should you, who do I assume the audience is, what level of assumed knowledge? I think that's what would be tricky. Maybe Kate and us. I was just gonna say it depends, I mean it sort of depends like what project you're working on, because I think if you're trying to build a package, it's sort of a different question because that's, then you have to make sure that yeah, someone else could like actually understand what you've done and pick it up or if you're working collaboratively with people. What I've found, if I'm working on something like to do with my research more, like if I'm doing, I don't know, like a meta analysis or some analysis thing that I have to use a lot of code for and I need to go back and actually understand what I did. I've actually found it really useful to use like our markdown or something like that and make it like almost kind of narrative, like this is how I'm doing my analysis. All the bullet, you can add things like bullet points and like go into a lot of detail about what you're actually doing conceptually and what all the variables mean so I found that really useful if it's for like a specific analysis and I think it looks much nicer as well than like having a million comments so that when you go back you're kind of more willing to read it all and understand it as well. So yeah, if it's for that sort of thing that can be useful. One of the times I'm just looking back at some of the utility functions I wrote for the Prisma app and one of the times that I found I've specifically commented in a bit more detail about what the code's doing has been where I've had to sort of embed for example, JavaScript within the R code so there's less assumed knowledge of people understanding the function so I've described in quite a bit of detail about what the JavaScript actually does so I said like it loops through each node locates this, does this and that in a way that kind of reads a bit more than perhaps I would have done if it was just a simple loop in written in R so that can be another thing is if you're so R you can, particularly with things like Shiny and stuff you might embed HTML or JavaScript within your code, in Python I know you can embed and I think you might even be able to in R embed stuff like C and other native code within your projects and that might be a place where you do go into a bit more detail with the commenting because the level of assumed knowledge is a bit less. Okay, cool, yeah. All right, so what do you know now that you wish you knew when you started out as a coder? Let's take a few minutes. What do I know? I think like for me, the biggest thing when I first started coding I just like didn't understand all of the things that I could do with it. So I always feel like when you first like write the beginning I started learning coding when I was like final year of university my undergrad degree they literally just gave you like sentence like not sentences but functions to write out in R. Basically that's what they gave you on a bit of paper and I was just typing it in and I didn't really understand what I was doing and I just thought R was like something that you do calculations in only. So I think I just had no idea about the capabilities and all the amazing things that you could do with it and that you can like anything you can think of that you might want to do or create even as an app like there's so many options and I think I just didn't know all of that. So I always try and like whenever I'm working with people who don't know R I'm always trying to get them excited and realize like it's not just like calculating a meme or whatever you're doing in this line of code it can do so much more than that. So yeah. Yeah I think that and the fact that communities are really helpful so people don't bite so it can be, you know don't feel like you're asking a silly question because you're probably not you might feel like, oh my God they probably know this it's really obvious but actually it's not that I think we've all been there where we've come up with a solution and gone that was really obvious. I should have realized that and actually, you know sometimes it just takes a little a little sort of nudging the right direction from someone so don't be afraid to ask when I and this is kind of showing my level of nerdiness but one of the IRC channels I use occasionally so IRC is like a very old text based version of Slack for want of a better term but one of the IRC channels I use just has the tagline of don't ask to ask just ask and I think that that's kind of stuck with me it can be really helpful and with that I guess just don't be afraid to delve into some of the dark corners of the internet where things like IRC and things like that exist so IRC for example a lot of Linux and open source software has IRC channels and it can sometimes be a bit sort of daunting accessing those kind of things but for some of the more niche technical questions there are lots of people with lots of quite detailed knowledge sort of on those and they're more than happy to help if you do so if you see a project and it says they've got an IRC channel or whatever that can be a useful source of knowledge of actually people helping you solve your problem pretty quickly as well you know I've had people help me talk me through a problem you know I like less than an hour after asking the question and that's that's quite a nice thing about the programming community I'm going to count that I'm going to let Matt come in and then I'll go next Russell's being rough again I wouldn't recommend going in some of those dark places in the internet but yeah I agree with both Caitlin and Chris about the whole sort of learning process and being open to understanding that R is not just a calculator I think that's quite a yeah that's mind-blowing once you realise that but it takes a little while to do that for me I think one of the things the biggest thing is don't be afraid you can't really break it you know you have to work very hard to break stuff in R you have to you can make a mess of stuff but that's that it's quite easy to sort of undo those messes but also one of the things I learnt most that was you don't have to be a really really really really good coder to start with to work on some of the open source projects and things so for example the years hackathons that we had in the past we had in the past working on some of the packages there that we've built when we started to eat Evie Atlas in Stockholm in 2019 I think I wasn't a coder at all really I knew how to turn the computer on and get find R and that was about it I didn't know about GitHub or anything like that working there's a place for everyone of every different level of coding ability on these projects so even if you are I just I say just is the wrong word but it's just if you're helping with documentation saying what the the code you want the function does you know it's very easy to contribute in some way and all those things need to be done so it's useful and then you learn loads from other people yeah I thought I mean personally I think sometimes when you're learning some of these places can be like you said Trist and Timothy and the conventions that exist within them not intentionally can seem standoffish and dismissive like you know oh this issue has already been posted on and then it just gets shut down so I mean yeah I mean I I guess that's why I found these communes are a lot easier to solve problems with and related to that there's also an element of the fear of beginners and non beginners sometimes feel about looking stupid and putting stuff out there on the internet so I think there's also a space for like local communities are really important anyway anyone want to come in? Chris? No I agree I think that you know it's good to have the variety of communities and particularly for beginners with quite specialist needs as we are in this evidence that this is community you know it's good having our own space but also it's good to not be afraid to venture out of that little space if there's something that perhaps the expertise within this community that doesn't exist to answer that one question you know someone in a different field but trying to do something similar might well have encountered that problem and also if you can't find a solution to how to solve it in R someone might have solved it in another programming language and actually once you understand the logic behind what they're doing implementing that in whatever language can be easier than not having any knowledge at all of where to even start We've had a question come in which is actually the next question on my list anyway pretty much what tips or lessons do you have for someone like me who is learning to kind of learn how to encode in R and so and the related question is like tips for aspiring new coders generally I guess but given this is an R conference there's a few bit R people Peter? I think I would say when I was first learning I did a lot of stuff on data camp which is not always free but some of the courses are free and I also used Coursera so like both of them in both of those situations I think in Coursera I had to like submit an assignment at the end of a course and that was really useful and in data camp it's probably even better because you you're actually like coding while you learn so I think that just so useful like I'm not very good at reading so I really hate it like I can just read lots of documentation and I know there's so many R books out there and they are really useful for me when you have a specific thing you read that chapter maybe but for me I learn a lot better by doing and those data camp courses are great for that because you're just constantly coding and learning so that's what I would say that's how I learned basically or how I started off and then I just Googled from there I think a lot of those online courses can be can be great one that I've I've sort of seen there's a CS 51 from Harvard the introduction to computer science and it starts at quite a low using quite low level concepts so it goes through C and then Python so it uses C for a lot of the low level concepts and then then builds on that but it gives you quite a good foundation and again you kind of code as you go and build a project at the end of it so and that's free unless you want as difficult then it costs money so again that might be be somewhere to start and I would say find one that works for you there's plenty of different people delivering plenty of different courses in different styles and you know if you find that you don't get on with one or it's not covering what you think it will cover then try another one I think I got I think I first started programming when I was about 13 using the C sharp for dummies book back when those were a thing and the internet was still on dial-up yeah I think it's important normally you just said sort of be able to recognise when just something doesn't work for you and often like me I'm sifting through rapidly different things and then something just clicks am I just being awful I just stick with that one and it's just being able to say to yourself it's not because I am just not understanding it it's just you know something about the way it's being taught just clicked with you maybe it's more visual or something try a few different things simultaneously and then take the one that works for you I think another good tip is to have sort of little pet projects that don't really matter so there's yeah you can try and challenge yourself to make yourself a website in art or and you can there's lots of help out there so you can follow the help and you can follow exactly then you can make tiny little changes and there's little changes and see what happens I think the Tidy Tuesday project is quite a cool thing because you get these data sets every week that you can play around with and you can visualisations Caitlin your shiny app things with the dogs that was pretty cool as well so it's that those sort of tiny projects that aren't for anyone but yourself I think are quite cool ways to just sort of practise and learn then you'll find an error and then you'll do it and you'll find how to fix it and then you learn a bit more and look at it every time so yeah just be yeah be nerdy and have some art projects that are just for you yeah I mean sort of relate to I think why I found when I especially when trying to make my code and data more reproducible and stuff like you learning that on a project which has a relatively simple analysis or something like that when I first started learning I was diving into a huge complicated project with loads of explanatory variables loads of that and it was really there was I was being thrown off so if it's a much simpler project that might be a better starting opportunity but also teach yourself as you how do you you know push out a study paper um yeah alright and then I'm gonna go with the chat GPT question haha just finish I think unless there's any other questions please just throw them in we've got a bit of time um so what do you think about using chat GPT to help write code and maybe chat GPT in the context of holding in problem solving more generally fingers on the buzzers I think it's a really really useful tool if you know what to ask it so it's the same thing with Googling it's just posh Googling I suppose um is that you know it's helpful in a to a certain extent um so I've played around with it recently to to help me troubleshoot a problem I have with a shiny app um and it's really useful but a lot of the time it just gave you nonsense so you have to ask the right questions and then what was actually very useful is when you got an error message from the code that you had written to say to it oh hang on a second this this is great but this didn't work and then it comes about to says oh I'm sorry but try this and you can learn quite a lot from it so you can learn yeah how to deal with some of the issues and it's quite good of that type of thing but as I say you need to know exactly what you're asking and you can't just sort of copy and paste the code and and hope it works for you I think um you know and there's other similar tools to tap GPT um you know GitHub release GitHub co-pilot for example that is specifically for coding um I think it's complicated um I think one of the certainly one of the ethical issues is for example um if you happen to have released your code under for example a GPL license which requires all derivations to be made um open source does code derived from an AI based machine learning model have to follow that license well that's a a complicated question right um I think that it can be really handy uh AI can you know particularly boring repetitive tasks or like um writing out a boiler like a boilerplate function that does something that's been done millions of times elsewhere but has to be slightly specific for your code you know AI based programming can be really helpful it can help answer questions but I think the big thing is you can't use it as a substitute for truly knowing the language and what the code does because you know if you you can't turn around if your code for example uh to take a worst case scenario um causes let's say um a massive memory leak because it starts looping and calculating using massive massive numbers and causing your computer crash you can't just say well it was the AI's fault you know it's on you to to kind of check your own code and make sure your code works so it's not a substitute for knowing and understanding the language and good proper testing um but it can be a really valuable thing so the way I can sometimes use sort of co-pilot or chat GPT is you know I'll check that it kind of looks right before I'll like agree insert code insert it into my code so I will read through it I will make sure it does what I want it to do before I start playing around with the with with the actual outputs from that yeah I would I would agree with what um both Matt and Chris have said it's it is useful in certain contexts and if you know exactly what question you're asking it and you you roughly know what you want to do and how it all works and everything like that and you just want to try and solve a specific problem or understand why you're getting a specific error or how to do a specific thing in a plot for example I found it can be useful things like that what I've also used it for is some of the more boring aspects of writing code like for me and writing unit tests actually it can be good at that and or I've recently tried to be trying to convert some of my shiny apps into shiny modules and actually it's been coping really well with that converting some of my shiny app code into modules another thing I use it for is um when I'm building a shiny app or something like that and I want to add in CSS or HTML code because I know nothing about HTML JavaScript CSS um but if I want to do something simple like change the color of this specific thing or um add an image in this of this size I can get it to write the HTML code that would work within our shiny for that so those are a few of the things that I've I've used it for and yeah I absolutely wouldn't trust it because it lies about so many things but it can be useful have you used it for translating between languages can I feed it I've never I've never touched chat TV but I feed it a function in art and it would output me new code yeah uh yeah I think it would I think if you said um because I have used it also for I think I'd found an answer to something in Python like I think I was using a plotting library that they use in Python and I was like can I convert this to our code to solve this problem and it it did manage to do it correctly so I think you have to be familiar with the language that you're language that you're translating into and the problem that you're trying to solve for that to be in any way useful um just in case it gets it wrong yeah so I would so to say you knew you knew Python but you didn't know Ruby then translating from Ruby to Python would probably be okay but I wouldn't go with a Python that's translated to Ruby because I wouldn't be able to verify it as easily I used it for translating what I thought was a useful R function into JavaScript for Google Earth Engine and it worked really well I didn't have any sort of idea what would work in in Google Earth Engine but it clotted the thing I wanted to plot so that that that worked and one other thing I've used it for sorry is um like if you want to speed up your code as well like if you're doing something in a really long way if I've got loads of code to do one thing I have asked it before can you make this more efficient and it has suggested things that I hadn't thought about I've used it for a very niche problem whether I have is translating my comments and my code into Norwegian comments and code which is um yeah none of you will probably have to do but that's actually been really really good yeah that can be really helpful yeah I mean I guess some languages yeah we have people from all over the world in this conference and it might be useful to translate some of those resources you suggested yeah I think um deep L is also an interesting one for translating that helps anyone anyone else? is that the google one? I don't think deep L is probably is most things in this world are but yeah um oh no no it's not it's random German yeah that's quite I mean I've found that really useful more generally when collaborating with people in Latin America or around them this might be an email because you're often trying to communicate really technical things and yeah um anyway all this chat about chapter two ebt might come irrelevant because they've seen it out as in this six month pause that musk is behind now it's like they're trying to think they're throwing a bit of tantrum buddy but yeah we'll leave that for another day um okay so I think that's that covers all the questions I think um I should try to wrap this up so now I think the thing is that that for me from the chat is sort of the importance of communities and having multiple at different scales so you know esmar comf which would plug that so that and the evidence that this has on communities follow those on twitter and and master don and there's lots of lovely people there who will help you out with your problem and then I think yeah within your own institution having these having perhaps more um little bit more private networks where you can ask different kinds of questions when you're you're really learning I guess and yeah I think I think all of them are kind of important and um the main thing when learning on solving is to have active to a community or a few all right so uh thanks everyone we're switching a little bit early but it's lunchtime so that was really interesting by the time here really I suppose I did just want I guess I just wanted to say say one thing is um you know even if you don't feel like you know code get stuck in if there's a project you want to to help on or you've got an idea or whatever just just get stuck in and you know even if it's as simple as testing it and writing a good quality bug report you know saying exactly what you were doing when when a problem happened or you think that this package does everything great apart from this one little thing that's really niche in your area if you can describe that in a way that's very easy to translate into code so describe the project logically rather than vaguely that can be really helpful and and can be a good way to start you know a lot of people kind of get started by helping out writing tests or even writing documentation or you know use cases and similar can be just really helpful and I'm thinking back to you know the site source package and how over the past year I think a lot of and I bit of a shame I wasn't able to be as involved as I'd wanted to with that but seeing you know people sort of progress from perhaps being really not very confident in their own knowledge of of the code and then sort of get into the point where you know committing bug fixes and making changes to code it's it's really nice to see and one of the benefits of being involved in a community yeah I think having a practical project to be involved with in sort of developing a relationship of actually being can be helpful and learning together any closing thoughts or should we leave it there okay I'm gonna leave it there I think all right well thanks everyone for your time that was a interesting discussion yeah be around

सोशिल मिड्या पर देकी है, हर तरव इमिनूटी बड़ाने किलिए, किस तरव से भारत के अर्वेद और योग की चर्चा हो रही है, कोरोना की द्रस्टी से आविष्मन्त्राले ने, इमिनूटी बड़ाने किलिए जो प्रटोकोल दिया था, मुझे विस्वाद है, कि आप लोग इसका प्रवोग जेरूर कर रहे होंगे, गर्म पानी, काडा, और जो अन्ने दिशान्देश आविष्मन्त्राले ने निजारि किये है, वो आप आप अपनी दिंचर्या में शामिल करेंगे, तो आपको बहुत लाग होगा. साथियो, वैसे ये द्रुभाग गे रहा है, कि कई बार हम अपनी शक्तिया और सम्रुध्द परम्परोग को पहचान ले से इंकार कर देते हैं, लेकिं जब विष्वाखा कोई तुस्रा देश, अविडिन्स भेज रीज रीशर्च के आदार पर, बही बात करता है, हमारी फर्मिरा हमें सिगाता है, हम उसे हाथ हो हाथ ले ले लेते हैं, संबवत है, इसके पिछे एक बहुत बड़ा कारन, सैंक्रो वरसों के हमारी गुलामी का कारखं डहा है, इस वेजे से कभी-कभी, हमें अपनी शक्तिपर विष्वात नहीं होता है, हमारा आपनी विष्वास कम नजराता है, इसलिये हम अपने देश के अच्छी बातों को, हमारे पारम्पारिक सिदहन्तों को, एविडिन्स भेज रीज रीषच के आदार पर आगे बड़ाने के बजाए, उसे चोर देते है, उसे हीं समझने लगते है, बहारत की युआ पिडी को अब इस चुनाउती को स्विकार करना होगा, जैसे विष्वे ले योग को सहस्विकार किया है, बैसे ही हाजारो वरषो पुराने हमारे आविडिक सिदहन्तों को भी, विष्व अवष्च विकार करेगा, हा, इसके लिए युआ पिडी को संकल पलेना होगा, और दून्या जिस बहाशा में समस्ती है, उस वैग्यानिक बहाशा में, हमें समजाना होगा, कुछ करके दिखाना होगा.

If you're now currently going through something that is difficult, that is a setback, a mistake, a failure, a tragedy, a sadness, it is weather. But faith and strength and resilience and belief and positivity is climate. So don't ever mistake a current weather situation in your life over which sometimes you have no control. Often you may have no control over weather. Weather can come from other people, can come from other situations and events and because you're attached to the people who are going through inclement weather, it can affect the weather in your life. Sometimes we can't control the weather, but we can always control the climate. So I want to encourage you guys today that are going through a difficult weather front. It may last a while, but don't mistake it for, don't read it as new climate in your life. It's not, it's weather. It's seasonal, it's passing, but the climate is always going to return if you don't park up in a current rainstorm or thunderstorm in your life.

here hello everyone I'm robin your teacher you know there's a early start today well maybe you didn't know but you know now I'm here with my tea let's check who's here Leila Amadi oh buddy's pretty early and Leila I see that you are a member oh congratulations Leila thank you for joining the the team in support it's easier for me to see your questions now Mahun Nasir and Seppery Danya hello welcome if you got any questions start typing them I'm just reading Maudi's name here Alshamari Alshamari sorry Maudi maize here hello and Elhadj Bah Elhadj Bah I'm not sure how to pronounce your name again Elhadj Bah Samira Muslim Sabah hello hello guys if you got any questions as I said it earlier you better start typing your questions it's getting cold here in Korea let's see the temperature let's see how cold is it right now I'm gonna go for a walk after the livestream so right now it's about 10 17 and it's up there you can see four degrees Celsius and pollute not much pollution so I'm gonna go for a walk and let's see Zalita hello Zalita Marcia you must be Marcia of the hedge hello welcome guys and Leila has a question there now let's let's this board is in the way see what's what the questions about let's go to the board here hello all right so Leila ask if I say for goodness sake when I'm surprised has that the same meaning of oh my gosh I'm gonna say no and I mean it can be but I think oh my gosh is a little bit stronger oh really surprised for goodness sake I think is more not really surprise it can be used for surprise but I think it's more for you're frustrated you're trying to do something you can't do it for goodness sake you're a little more frustrated not surprised so oh my gosh oh my gosh it's some sort of surprise so I'm gonna say they're not the same this is used more for you you're feeling some frustration that's what I'm gonna say and Marty why is my market in yellow color I think your mark maybe your your symbol there is yellow color well that's probably it's a difference in level on the I don't remember the levels I have but I think you know there's there's different levels of student and your your all levels are important so it's about level I think if that's your question anyway guys how about the channel join me support me trying to grow the channel but you know it's not growing very well but hopefully next year will be the year this channel grows low mana desire well that's an interesting name low mana desire billo ballet hello oh lolly lolly is here lolly lolly is here now we can begin Robin why did you start earlier than every time what is new I think if I'm not doing a lesson if I'm just doing a Q&A the start time doesn't really matter if I start early I don't know we'll see how it goes Assad hi brother and Sabira Sabiri Danya ask a good question here I'm sorry if I don't pronounce your name correctly Sabiria Sabiri Danya can anyone tell me what is different okay a little bit spelling between formal and informal let's talk about that that's good so formal informal can also be called casual so when you're studying a language and you guys are studying English so I'm gonna talk about English but I'm sure it's true for every language we have the formal which is the correct way to speak and usually in writing we are we should use the exact rules of grammar and punctuation and things like that and we shouldn't use slang so formal lot writing writing is usually very formal speaking is very formal again we should use the proper rules and speak as best as we can for example in a job interview or at your job we should follow formal rules of speech now informal casual this is probably 90 I'm just putting up a number here I didn't do any research but 99% of the time people are just speaking informally or casually an informal casual speech we're breaking the rules we have terrible grammar we're using things like oh my gosh and for goodness sake slang idioms all kinds of things in informal English so if you're taking a test or you're writing an essay formal English following the rules writing well is important or you have an interview in English formal speaking is very important but most of the time people are pretty casual or informal now I hope that helps you out I enjoyed that question lolly lolly thank you lolly lolly has supported my tea today thank you very much lolly lolly sing a shilpa hello hi from Ecuador and Layla has a question let's check out ladies Layla's question what was happening there could I reduce to what is happening there well no you got two different tenses here so let's let's put these side-by-side you got two different tenses up here you have the b-verb in the past tense past simple tense or past continuous what was happening there so and this is what is happening there so there let's say there is some party what was happening there last night and if the party is happening now continuous present continues what is happening there right now so they they do not mean the same thing because the tense is different last is I have the same kind of pens which you have I don't like this sort of game I've eaten two types of food when I went to the restaurant with my boyfriend what's the question okay it's down below could I use sort of type of kind of yeah I think let's put these up here interesting and let's put them all plural just to make sure they even there's I'm gonna say well let's make it singular here so if I said what's the sort let's see I'm trying to enter in think of an example now they're similar so they're not always exactly the same these three expressions but they are similar gold if I said gold is sort of metal that's not a that's not a perfect example but that's what I thought of right now gold is a sort of metal gold is a type of metal gold is a kind of metal well probably these two are better but if I change this kimchi is kimchi is sort of spicy if I said kimchi is type of spicy or kind of spicy actually this is okay and this is okay but this is not okay so they all mean very similar thing but depending on the situation we might use these two or we might use these two and you're thinking Robin how do I know which which to use in a situation well there I don't think there is a rule but I'm gonna say type of and kind of are very useful and probably a lot of your sentences will work with type of kind of more than sort of but again it's case by case but they're not exactly the same they have a very similar meaning though all right I have to move on Yosef Prince hello grace hello grace you do your live streams at the worst time of the week Friday night change change the day of the week of your live streams grace say it fella hello do we hello Gertrudis hello people still coming I started early Arabic name how are you I'm doing fine all right all right and grace has a question here what is that what is the difference between instructor and professor well it can mean the same thing at the university but professor is only works at a university and instructor I think we can use that for any teacher I think it's a little more formal of teacher so a professor can be instructor but you can have a swimming instructor you cannot have a swimming professor that would be a little strange but you know instructor any teacher all right all right little asks when someone said something then I understand something but he meant another thing okay and I okay finally I got the meaning which he wants in this case could I say oh sorry for my misunderstanding well let's make it easy sorry I got it now this would be a very easy so you misunderstood something and then okay now you understand and you want to tell someone you could say oh I got it now I got it now and I got it means I understand now I got it now now if you want to be a little more formal yes you can say sorry for misunderstanding something like that sorry for my misunderstanding or sorry for misunderstanding but I recommend this oh sorry I got it now more casual well grace thank you grace paid for my second cup of coffee after this one you'll say hi Robin we need to know the meanings of the verbs got get in this in this sentence please which sentence got or you'll serve get and the past tense is got which sentence you didn't give me a sentence get got can mean many things all right grace asks I am going to attend the ceremony with some of my girlfriends I have read this sentence in the book but I have only one girlfriend why is a pearl like girlfriends I am going let's see this person has many girlfriends so this is a person can we do smiley faces work no that's here that's that's you and you're you are I I am going to attend the ceremony with some of my girlfriends you have many girlfriends and you are going with some of them to the ceremony so I have one girlfriend I have some girlfriends I'm not sure the question grace I hope I answered it if I didn't ask again and lolly lolly is question is there a difference between I can't bear him and I can't stand him is there any way to say that well let's see they're the same I can't be around him anymore I can't are we talking about someone lolly lolly who are we talking about can't take it this would be I can't take it anymore would be more of a situation not a person so this is these are more about people I can't bear him I can't stand him I can't be around him anymore that's definitely about a person they all mean the same thing you don't like the person you don't want to be near the person and but the bear is that the right bear I don't I don't think a bear is right you're right the spelling I didn't know the spelling anyway it's right I can't bear him I can't stand him I can't be around him anymore for situations if it was a situation I can't take it anymore you could also use these in situations I can't bear it I can't stand it I can't be around here anymore something like that so people in situations now now Naz what I mean I wanted to know the whole use of the word already let's fix the spelling so I really don't do dictionary stuff but if you need me to go to the dictionary for you I will go to the dictionary for you because you don't know how to use the dictionary already before now or before a particular time in the past that is how we use already or used to express surprise so I suggest you go to the Oxford learners dictionary you type in already they give good examples here we got four good examples another good example another good example for uses of already now that will teach you better than me right now so sorry I can't do dictionary a friend hello go come send me money for this hello okay Daniels here okay a lot of a lot of members are here today thank you guys and Leila I prepared multiple questions to ask Robin during his live stream did I use multiple correctly yes so yeah that's good you know probably many people will use many questions but multiple is a good word to use means the same as many it's a little more formal but that's okay it's a good word Leila I got it now yes okay I'm moving down I'm kind of I'm reading the comments I promise I'm reading the comments but I'm not gonna answer everything Leila will you write will you will you end your live stream early I don't know I don't have a schedule on my live streams and Gertrude has a question please we got an answer please what's what's the meaning of right off the bat all right thank you so right off the bat important it is a idiom I remember with idioms English phrases the words and the meaning don't match so in this sentence we see bat now this sentence because it's idiom the words and the meaning don't match so this word bat can mean like a baseball bat or a flying bat but it's an idiom we're not talking about a bat so what is the meaning of this right off the bat so I think this is more of suddenly let's see I immediately suddenly I'm getting example sentences because I don't think of example sentences here I'll say something from my class let's see I went to my college class earlier today right off the bat I noticed most of the class was sleeping all right let's let's look at that so it's idiom if something happens right off the bat it happens immediately so I went to my college class a little bit of spelling mistake earlier today right off the bat I noticed most of the class was sleeping so right off the bat immediately I noticed most of the class was sleeping okay immediately right off the bat immediately suddenly okay hope that helps you get true to this if you got an example sentence bring it in all right so Marty pupil and student what's the difference I think pupil is just formal let me take a look that's a good question they mean this to me they mean the same thing but yeah they mean the same thing I'll say old old English so pupil is not so common anymore it's not common a student is very common and nothing wrong with using student if you're in a formal situation you say student nothing wrong you don't need to use pupil it's kind of old English I'd never used this word but you'll see it around you'll see it around so you guys should know it it just means student okay so I'm gonna say there is no difference except this word is old older English and say it fell like what's the difference anyway anyways these are the same meaning so in English we have forward or forwards backward backwards these kind of expressions they can have an S and they they don't need an S so both ways are possible I think with the S is more slang but they mean the same thing you can use both both ways all right great I got a beer question I got a beer I took a beer in those two sentences got and took are the same mmm they can be they can be but we have to know the situation so I got a beer for my friend I took a beer now in this situation they do not mean the same thing so I got a beer from my friend kind of means my friend gave me a beer but I took a beer means more aggressive I kind of took it so in this situation no the meaning is a little different now if you said I got a beer from my fridge I took a beer from my fridge it's closer it's close it would it's not a hundred percent the same but they these two sentences basically mean the same thing so situation is important got and took don't always mean the same thing Jose it is what time what time is it in my country I'm in Korea right now I am not Korean it's 10 43 p.m. on a Sunday all right we got a lot of questions so I'm just gonna focus on the channel members right now to catch up with the questions I'm just gonna focus on the channel members after I answer the channel members questions I'll go back and check the other people's questions so channel members let's take a look you're not you're not worried about a fridge Leila life is a journey on on that journey you meet many people some of those people will change your life could you please check my pronunciation I grant I can't I can't check your pronunciation I can't hear you I can check your grammar grammar seems fine and a for Anna what kind of flippant is and could you show me the expression please you're talking about the word flippant or an example of flippant it's more of an adjective isn't it flippant don't need that if someone is flippant it's an adjective you're describing someone is flippant not showing a serious or respectful attitude so often my students are flippant so let's let's do an example flippant let's move that up give us more room here so let's do a dialogue hey okay students please do your homework and the students is nope that could be considered flippant I'm the teacher trying to to give homework and the students are not not serious or not respectful is that what you mean by flippant Leila he is fired from his work recently probably I would say he was fired he potted out his company I don't know potted is that the right word I that's not the right word where did you see this word you didn't hear that word there is no word potted so sorry Leila you misheard the word let me see he potted out of his company it could be plotted let's see it doesn't mean fired plotted to plot the verb here walk slowly that's my guess he was fired so he left he left the company he's very sad so maybe he walked slowly in a sad way plotted but there's no potted so I'm not sure Jose I missed last Sunday's Q&A what you're here now sing a ship what is the difference between idioms and phrases didn't I answer that for you idioms are very special terms in English here I got perfect idiom video I'm just I'm just getting the link here so if I'm gonna put the link here of an old video I older video I talked about idioms in detail so if you're interested in idioms go there what's the best dictionary I should use I always use Oxford or Cambridge I don't use anything else I never use anything else Oxford is my first dictionary if I need a second dictionary I look at Cambridge as far as I'm concerned those are the standard dictionaries if you're using something else I can't help you all right let's go down there Marty I have many questions but I can't remember them when you open your live stream I forgot them well write them down a frana I'm waiting in the basement what is the meaning I thought she was at the basement well yeah for location for location our our main verb when talking about locations is at this is this is usually the verb I am at the bank is better than I am in the bank both are okay both are acceptable both are okay but at is the main verb for location so why are we using in in if you want to focus on the inside I am in the bank means I am at the bank and I am inside the bank so when you're inside a room or a building then we kind of use in more so a basement is always in a basement is a room so for rooms I am in the kitchen now you can say I'm at the kitchen but usually for rooms in a house we're more often use in so at the at the basement is possible but in the basement is more common sounds a little better than at so location if you're outside usually we want to use at we can use in but in the house rooms probably in is better alright I'm gonna right now cuz there's so many questions guys I'm gonna focus on members for the next few minutes if you're not a channel member check it out it's not that expensive thanks buddy I read in some books I'm gonna fix your English you said thanks a punch it should be thanks a bunch Leila says I saw this expression thank you's so I want to know what is the difference between it and thank you well I don't know where you saw that so what's kind of situation it's not the same as thank you no it's not the same as thank you so Leila I can't help you I gotta know where you saw that you can't say thank you's to someone alright Marty finally has a question take your gear and take your equipment was a difference so we're we're focusing on gear and equipment what is the difference between these words now I'm looking right away I think not much equipment is used more situations definitely more situations and gear is more focused on a hobby maybe like hiking gear if you play a sports my football gear but you can use equipment so I think equipment covers more situations and items gear is a little more focused to hobby stuff that's my feeling about it Marty so do you have an example sentence that would help me out and grace then if I say I took this beer from the market does that mean I stole the beer yeah kind of means you stole the beer you should say I got this beer I got this beer from the market if you say I took it kind of means you stole it and lay less or I made a mistake with pronunciation I gotta go back Leila to that life is a journey on that journey journey you meet many people some of those people will change your life life is a journey that's how you pronounce it life is a journey okay let's see do you use all your fingers in the keyboard no let's see if I can move that so there's my mic there's my keyboard so I have this big mic in front of the keyboard so when I type I kind of have to go around the mic so I just and I'm not I'm a terrible typer grace I hope that your family are fine I hope that your family is fine my family is more important to me than anything my family are more important me anything which one is right well grace I taught this in a video a year ago I'm sure I'm sure you watched that video where I talked about is family that we use are or is so I think you need to be reminded and everyone needs to be reminded my family is nice my I'm just gonna make it simple my family are nice now the correct one to use is this one so this is a we called I forget the name collective nouns some nouns mean a group like team my class these are collective nouns team a group of people class is a group of people and with collective nouns we use is we do not use are you if you want to use are you got to use family members my family members now now the noun portion is on the members and now members is countable so we put an S so the correct way my family is nice my family members are nice and but you might see a native speaker well you remember native speakers don't know the rules I don't know all the rules of English but some native speakers might make this mistake but this is the this is this is what you should be doing right here my family is nice my family members are nice if you want to use team that team group of people is awesome and my class is quiet so in team I'm talking about many people in class I'm talking about many people but they are collective nouns so it's treated as one group all right hope that helps get ice all right let's go down okay so a Fran is talking about flippant can a facial expression be flippant I think a facial expression can be flippant let's take a look when I lay last is when I eat pepper I okay when I eat so you're there is your presence simple so you're using this as a routine when I eat pepper I feel chili this is not the right chili this is like chili sauce you want to say chili cold I wear a jacket when I feel chili could you explain the difference between chili and chili oh well all right let's go to the dictionary I'll put it up here here's my Oxford chili chili pepper that's chili pepper it's type of pepper used in cooking it's hot usually hot and spicy we can see the IPA if you're wondering about the pronunciation chili chili chili chili and the other word chili pronunciation chili same pronunciation but certainly different spelling too cold or to be comfortable so one is spicy one is cold so your first sentence here when you said when I eat peppers I felt chili and that's impossible because you cannot feel chili that's a noun so chili is again let's go to the dictionary chili adjective chili now so I felt chili is impossible okay I hope that helps you out Layla grace 50 families live in this apartment building 50 family members live in this apartment building which one is correct well they're both correct now 50 families we can substitute with a they you have it families is uncount is countable you have your family but there's another family there's two families three families that's possible I'm trying to catch up here sorry guys right now I am checking members questions to catch up I will check later the other if you're not a member check it out become a member it's not expensive guys hey this is when I read a story on audiobook I saw this thank yous no no I don't know can't help you Johnny Phil Geary is a part meaning Quentin is very broad that's correct a friend how about garment does it mean clothes all right this is Robin's dictionary garment it's a noun garment garment and the meaning right there is very clear guys you really need to trust the Oxford dictionary it's you cannot find a better for my opinion you cannot they don't give me money this is a tool I use they do not give me any money but it is a tool you guys need to know there they explain the words very clearly very clearly right there you cannot you cannot get clear a piece of clothing garment so your question garden does it mean the same as clothes well the center if let's see I'm trying to think of a sentence it can I don't use the word that doesn't mean it's not used it's usually you know an item of clothing a piece of clothing I don't have an example sentence sorry but yeah it can mean a piece of clothing an item of clothing I am more terrible at typing than Robin is it correct yes you know how to use a comparative I am more terrible at typing than you're using more and more terrible than that's your comparative it's okay good true to this thank you very much for the coffee tea all right and okay does garment mean a fine clothes can be used garment daily life well you know garment I think the sense of garment is yeah these are a little bit better clothes I would not call this garment but maybe in daily life I think we just use clothes most of the time I'm not a person that uses garment so I can't maybe that's a good question to ask Sherry teacher Sherry on her live stream if or maybe she's watching now I don't use the word garment very much she's just so sorry Anna I can't really help you with garment where did you see it fine clothes yeah I would say yes daily life better just use clothes your trutus I got three coffees today thank you very much guys thank you I always appreciate it thanks guys muddy okay I'm almost caught up with the members here let's take a look some advanced students ask hard questions these yes every live stream I am asked questions I do not know the answer example garment and I want to know the the usage of garment you know I haven't used that in a long time so you I'm a teacher and I don't know everything about English but yeah muddy if you talked to a native speaker who is not a teacher you know they're fluent in English but you know really they don't know all the rules where will you take me where will you be taking you can use both of them can use both of them Leila broadcast podcast I am confused about the difference between them because I feel they are too similar in meaning no they are different because broadcast is like TV and podcast is internet internet and the podcast is only audio usually I gotta go around the mic here to get to my why so think a broadcast is something you see on TV and a podcast is usually audio file you listen to grace I am very concerned because you're starting to ask basic questions so the audience was we're waiting for others we don't need the this is basic English we have our subjective pronouns here I he she it we they knew so I was he was she was it was we were they were you were now right so the audience let's move it back down here the audience which subjective pronoun is that grace is is the audience and I he she and it we they you so you can we know it's an I he she I he she we know it's not that we know it's not a we you're talking about an audience it's not you so it comes down to it and they and so an audience can be an it it's possible and an audience can be a group of people so you will find the audience was waiting for Robbins live stream the audience were waiting for Robbins live stream and I'll check if it's a British American difference oh yeah American British English are different I'm not gonna care about the British sorry I gotta read so anyway it goes back to what we what we had before audience is this what I said collective noun yes I heard you say yes it's a collective noun so for a collective noun is a group so I would say this now the audience was waiting it was waiting as a group one thing but you will hear people say they were rating which they were waiting which one is correct and both of them are correct as far as I can tell I don't know about British English but when you're dealing with collective nouns native speakers are not up are not following the rules of collective nouns okay so you will find many examples of was or were with collective nouns but as it is a collective noun I would use the it was as a group it isn't it right Leila what great types of what great types of course you prefer to ask during your live stream any question is okay I feel like going out with you tonight I feel like some water I feel like means I would like or I have big desire to do something I I feel like I think that's more of a desire I feel like doing something I want to do something that's more of a desire I ran into Robin in Kuangmyeong yesterday run into what does that mean I had run toward Kuangmyeong to meet Robin no car well ran into let's go to Oxford dictionary clicking Oxford dictionary ran into oh here it is run into right from the Oxford dictionary phrasal verb run into somebody to meet somebody by chance so there you go another meaning run into something to air to enter an area of bad weather while

the washing machine you wash your curtains if you clean them by just maybe wiping them with a rag you clean them if you put them in the washing machine you wash them so it depends how you clean them could you please pronounce these two words well let's go back to our dictionary and this we can see the I the the phonetic symbols are awesome guys like I use them every day so let's let's take a look at these phonetic symbols so we we know the beginning is the same and right here right here is the same so we broke that up we know the beginning is the same Kerr Kerr Kerr it has to be the same Kerr Kerr and then we have another vowel here and we have a consonant here anyway let's listen let's listen to this one curtain curtain all right curtain curtain curtain let's listen to the other one current current there we go so we have current current and curtain curtain current curtain very difficult to pronounce these two words current and curtain run into bump into that's possible Leila to distinguish the difference between the phrasal verbs meanings is really hard so what should I do oh Leila you you know the answer I've been saying the same answer for years you the only way the only way to learn phrasal verbs is to read now I know Grace looks at study flashcards not gonna help you Grace not gonna help you you can study you can study thousands and thousands of phrasal verbs by flashcards that will not help you read you know phrasal verbs is advanced English if you want you there's no short way to advanced English guys it requires a lot of input what is input things coming

be learned by lists this is advanced English there's thousands and thousands of phrasal verbs you gotta you gotta start reading now do you need to know every phrasal verb no not unless you live in America or Canada yeah you should try to learn as many as you can but it's not so important guys to know every phrasal verb there my rant is over with grace Robin seemed to break the glass on purpose Robin seemed to break the glass purposely others you're just using two different grammar or parts of speech let's see it means the same thing you know in English we can say I'm just getting a list

verbs is casual so read read for fun read things in the Mala you you read things you want to read for fun romance story that would be really good for phrasal verbs science fiction anything anything read anyone else 70 question if I missed your question earlier I don't know if you're still here so please repeat your question oh Jose has a really good Jose Gonzalez read things that you love yes that's the key to English don't do it for the sake of learning yes that's the key of English do it because you love it yes Jose you are I love you you are saying exactly what you need to do to improve your English Jose Gonzalez Praveen how we have ordered the adjective well Praveen I put a link here of a video I made of talking about adjective order for do it furduous asks I have got it and I got it what is the difference well technically there is a difference but in English usage native speakers will use them in the same way for the technical differences I'm not gonna worry about it because I don't think it's important so I got I I've I got it I've got it we'd probably use more of I've got it none I have got it so you're gonna hear that I've got it I got it it's a different grammar but they mean the same thing under the Sun or in the Sun under the rain well these mini under the Sun well I stand or I sleep under the Sun Sun spots are in the Sun so you can use you can use many prepositions for the Sun I think you're wanting to use this one for rain I walked in the rain not under the rain so I sleep under under the Sun and I walk in the rain because you can't be under the rain because rain is falling on me now oh you fixed it later in the rain under the Sun in the rain all right that that there you go she gave him a bottle of wine to make up for missing his birthday what does the makeup for me in this case let's go to dictionary makeup is very commonly lie I'm surprised you don't know that I think you do know that you just have no confidence makeup now let's see if we can get that bigger for you guys nope phrasal verb makeup to put powder lipstick on makeup I don't think it's that one makeup to form something women makeup 56% of the student numbers I don't think it's that one you can see there's lots of makeups to invent a story so to to create a story I don't think it's that one I think it's that one I don't think it's that one how so many makeups hey all right here we go be at the end your makeup with somebody yeah which one they this should be oh here it is to replace something that has been lost to compensate for something this is the one can I leave early this afternoon and make up the time tomorrow there we go so she gave him a bottle of wine to make up for missing compensate for his birthday what does makeup for well it's right here to replace something that has been lost or to comp compensate for something so nothing was lost here so to compensate I missed your birthday so I have to compensate I have to give give you something there you go any other questions guys all right I think I'll end the live stream we're we went a long time Laila you asked probably record amount of questions I'm not sure who's still watching who's here I don't see any questions so you can see I'm watching the questions here I don't know Samira are you still here I asked what's the difference between reject and refuse now reject and refuse main the same thing but we have to go by case by case so reject is more someone tries to give you something or offer you something and you say no that's a reject you can also refuse that in that case it means the same refuse so if I said a says will you sign the contract and B says I reject the contract so they're definitely saying no but they could also say I refuse to sign the contract so you can use both it's case by case do you have an example sentence reject is more of a no I don't want that and refuse I'm not gonna do that so you reject an offer Jose Gonzalez is still here Samira if you are angry you know help out the channel and I'll give you treatment quick I'll answer all your questions quicker in this all right Samira you got you got it yeah Samira that's a difficult question now that I know you're still here Samira that's a difficult question it's reject I'm gonna say 90% of the time it can be almost the same thing but there are cases we might use the word reject instead of refuse or you might use refuse instead of Jack reject but generally speaking they mean you don't want something all right thank you for understanding Samira and Alyssa's here and Praveen please don't mind please send the link of verbs what verbs are you talking about I sent the link earlier what verbs are you talking about Praveen and Kamlesh says Kamlesh I heard this from a YouTube video you can follow me on Instagram Facebook and Twitter not that I do very much on Twitter what does it mean so that's probably the most advanced question today Kamlesh good for you so you might see the sentence not that I do that do something and it's very advanced and I didn't have time to prepare so I'll just give a very basic meaning of this in the sentence he's talking about follow me on Instagram Facebook and Twitter not that I do very much on Twitter so he is emphasizing that he doesn't do much or he doesn't do that much let me see if I can get a better example and I can't find an example all right let's see if I can have one well I'll just use your example sorry Kamlesh this is a very advanced I need more time to prepare so when you see the sentence not that I do it or not that I do something it means you don't do it very much so in this case you can follow me on Instagram Facebook and Twitter so he's adding them Instagram Facebook and Twitter in one line one sentence so you think they're equal oh he uses Instagram Facebook and Twitter equally and he wants to show you know not that I do it very much on Twitter which means I don't do Twitter very much he uses Instagram a lot Facebook a lot but not so much Twitter all right that's the simple way I wish I could explain in more detail but I need more to plan that yeah so for location our two prepositions at in I said earlier which one is great at university or in university both can be okay I would probably say smaller so these are both possible for location let's meet at the university so that would mean let's meet at the university campus and let's meet in the university might mean let's meet again the in is more of inside so that could mean the inside the university campus or inside a building this is the one I would prefer in this context but we would probably use like classroom more for the in inside the building inside of room so they both are possible kind of means more what you mean let's meet at the campus or let's meet inside the building grace when I was a beginner I can I I can see my improvement of my English but now I am low intermediate level who are you you're deciding your level who decided your level I very I'm gonna pick on you grace who decided your level did you decide yourself your level I hope you didn't decide yourself remember guys we do not decide our level a test or a teacher a real situation decides our level not we do not decide ourselves so it's hard to see my improvement I understand yeah I understand what you're saying grace it's hard to see improvement but improvement is there grace look at Layla Layla from two years ago and Layla now we can see so much improvement in just Layla wow grace I don't talk to you that much so I can't see the improvement and I don't know how much you study grace but I'm sure if we go back two years to my live streams because I have a record of all our chats if I checked what kind of things you were chatting about two years ago and your grammar and I checked now I'm sure I would see in improvement grace it is there grace I'm sure it's there yeah I know it's frustrating we can't see our improvement but it's there and Alyssa always coming in with difficult questions what's the difference different I'm gonna fix your spelling what's the difference fix your spelling you don't know your spelling mistake I'm not gonna tell you what's the difference between particular and specific well I'm gonna go right to Oxford they mean very similar now you can see it but the dictionaries is particularly used to emphasize that you are referring to one individual person thing or type of thing and not others the synonym is specific so if I check specific connected with one particular thing only now right so according to the dictionary they mean exactly the same thing they're synonyms but as you know when we're using particular and specific we use them a little differently and I'm trying to think how because you didn't bring any example sentences I I'm just gonna say very quickly particular is more like the dictionary said more for an emphasis and I would say particular is a little more formal that's the best I can do yeah this is Q&A oh grace you kind of interesting stuff studying English isn't as interesting as it used to be because I don't know if I'm improving or not well why are you studying English so you you have no need or goal so you seem a little lost not everyone needs to study English grace now some some students use it study as a hobby and some students need it for university or a job but I know in Korea a lot of students just study English because they think they need to actually not everyone needs to study English and do you need to study English grace yes you do because you like to talk to international people so when you're talking and or teaching international people English was gonna be very important so yeah you are improving and keep studying what you don't have to have formal study grace as I always said you do not open a book do not do any formal studying definitely 100% do not go to a private academy you need to learn naturally by chatting with people by reading things like that you got to do things you enjoy don't do anything studying sleep yep you're right about the Twitter right and a for Anna everyone's losing confidence now how do we know where we're in a right track in studying English well Anna you know do you feel do you feel you're getting better do you like it I don't know your needs of English Anna but I think you and I would from what I know of you Anna I think you are on the right track you want to use on the right track means you're going and progressing the right way Jose Gonzalez I've been to Panama two years ago or last last two

according to my girlfriend I look like a junkie yeah gonna go take a walk thanks for reminding me Jonathan it's almost midnight I gotta go take a walk after I take my walk I'll eat my dinner and then I'll go to sleep so I'll probably be in the WhatsApp groups during the walk so if you're

And I thank Terry and Jeff for the opportunity, for being the spokesperson for Emerge. I'm also one of the Emerge PIs, I guess I should have introduced myself that way. Fourteen minutes, all right, where's my, so this is what I'm going to talk about. I gave myself this title here, so this is the way the Vanderbilt medical record room looked like 20 years ago, and I think we're going to deliver genomic medicine. It's almost inconceivable that we can do it in a paper environment. So although electronic medical records are controversial, including a story in today's New York Times, I really deeply believe that creating electronic medical records helps manage individual patient care and is enabling for genomic medicine, both in the discovery realm as well as in the implementation realm. Eric showed you these slides. So what I'm going to talk about is Emerge, and Emerge has two domains. One is the listed here, and the second is this more implementation side. I'm going to talk a little bit about the discovery side, and then a little bit more about the implementation side of Emerge. Emerge was created in the spring of 2007, and the first phase had five centers that are listed here, and our mission really was to assess the utility of DNA collections coupled to electronic medical records. And the carrot for us to participate was that each site got to identify a phenotype of interest in around 3,000 subjects and conduct a GWAS. We also had a major focus on privacy and de-identification, which I'm not going to talk about, a major focus on ethical, legal, and social issues, which I'm also not going to touch on a little bit later. So one of the first things that each site did was identify their subjects, do their genotyping, do a GWAS, and discover that they had no signal. And they had no signal because they didn't have enough patients. So one of the things that we did was we went through a very elaborate and laborious process in order to share data. And I think that this is an important lesson for all of us who are trying to do genome science in the discovery or in the implementation phases. This is what the data-sharing memorandum of understanding, the elements that are listed. So each site managed to go to other sites, get other samples that had been genotyped for cataract, but were useful for diabetes, and expand their sample sets, publish a genome-wide association study. We also managed to create data sets across the network that are now quite large. The way we go about phenotyping, I thought I'd show this very briefly, is that we develop a phenotype, identify a phenotype, we develop algorithms, and manually assess them. In a couple of hundred patients, if the positive predictive value is okay, we say, fine, we have an algorithm. If it's not, we iteratively fix the algorithm. Once the algorithm is done, we deploy at the site that developed the algorithm and deploy at other sites and then do the genome-wide association study. The important part of showing this is that the algorithms that we develop at one site that have to be identified or validated at other sites, we've done that. And this is one of the studies that we did in hypothyroidism. And you can see that the case and the control positive predictive values are really pretty acceptable. I really don't know what was going on at Mayo, but their PPV was a little lower than the rest. But this is an algorithm developed at one site, implemented at others. And I think that's an important lesson as well. So that resulted in a GWAS with a signal. And this is a GWAS that was done with no extra genotyping. Each one of these samples had been genotyped for some other indication to start with. So we had readily available data sets that we could use for this application. It turns out the signal is next to FoxE1, which is a transcription factor that's been implicated in hypothyroidism or thyroid cancer. So this made biological sense and it was replicated and published. Now, I want to take a detour to tell you about a technology that we and EMERGE have been developing that I think is uniquely suited to electronic medical records. So GWAS starts with a target phenotype and then displays the data in the way that you're all familiar with. The phenome-wide association study turns the algorithm on its head, says, we're going to start with a target genotype. Suppose the genotype is that SNP associated with hypothyroidism and then ask the question, which across electronic medical records with multiple diagnoses, with what phenotype does that SNP associate? If the reference or are they variant, what does the chi-square look like? And we display the data in exactly the same way. So the requirement to do that experiment is that you have to have a large number of patients with many diagnoses and lots of genotypes. So that's uniquely situated or uniquely suited to the EMERGE environment. So this is what the GWAS looks like for the FoxE1 SNP. And we actually replicated the hypothyroidism signal and also identified other signals related to thyroiditis, related to pernicious anemia, which may be clinically related, and related to atrial arrhythmias, which are also part of the spectrum. So that's an interesting validation. We've done that now for other SNPs. This is one of our best examples. IRF-4 SNP that's associated with hair and eye color, clearly associated with skin cancers and other kinds of skin diseases. And we've now done this for all the SNPs in the GWAS catalog that Francis showed you. And it provides a replication set. It also identifies potential new associations. And all the data are publicly displayed because that's the philosophy that we have. We generate the data. And then you can go to this website and look up your favorite gene, your favorite SNP, your favorite odds ratio, and find what we have found. And along the same lines, the phenotypes that we identify are also publicly displayed in a knowledge base called the Phenom Knowledge Base, the algorithms that are all there for anyone to try to use. So EMERGE then moved into EMERGE Phase 2 in 2011. We expanded the number of sites to include Geisinger and Mount Sinai, and then expanded to pediatric centers that are shown here. And our mission really was to expand the electronic phenotyping efforts, but also to start implementation at site-specific projects and across the network and then other kinds of initiatives, which I'm not going to discuss in detail. So one of the things that is going on right now, following up on the common rule issue that Dr. Collins alluded to, is this issue around consent for biobanking. And we are now developing questionnaires and developing evidence sets that will enable a very, very large survey, 100,000 patients across EMERGE institutions to identify policy issues, really, around biobanking with input from the actual consumers. So that's an important network-wide initiative. Another example of a network-wide initiative is in the area of hemochromatosis. It turns out this is a relatively common variant, and the homozygotes are common. These are the variants that cause hemochromatosis. And we have a total of about 1,500 of those across the EMERGE sites now. And the questions we're asking are, how many of these patients actually carry the clinical diagnosis? And among the ones who don't carry the clinical diagnosis, do they have phenotypes that make it so that they should carry the clinical diagnosis? We actually have examples at our own center of patients with this diagnosis who have been transfused, which is really the wrong treatment. So we're interested in knowing whether this should be implemented in electronic medical records more generally. Each, there are site-specific genomic medicine implementation projects. And I've divided them up into sort of the broad focus areas. One is developing genetic risk scores and evaluating the potential clinical impact. Another set of projects is to genotype specific variants and evaluate the impact on physicians and patients of returning those results. And you can see the specific projects listed here. The Geisinger group has a whole genome sequencing effort for undiagnosed and mainly neurological disease. And then there's a number of sites that have a pharmacogenomics focus, including a focus on hepatitis C, a focus on CYP2D6 genotyping, which turns out to be the most important enzyme for drug disposition, and also one of the most problematic in terms of just assay issues, a project around asthma. And then at Vanderbilt, we've had for a couple of years a large, multiplex preemptive pharmacogenetic testing project that got some support through this mechanism, and that morphed into a project that I'm going to talk about right now. So we at Vanderbilt are part of both eMERGE and the Pharmacogenomics Research Network, another large NIGMS funded network. And so this project that I'm going to outline for you is really a collaboration between the two networks. We call it eMERGE-PGX. So the things that the Pharmacogenetics Research Network brings to the table are an effort led by Mary Relling, who's in the audience, around the issue of, if you have genetic data available to you, what should you do with it? We don't, in CPIC, the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium, we don't ask the question, should people be genotyped? What we ask is, if you have the genotype information already, because someone has had whole genome sequencing or exome sequencing or targeted genotyping, what should you do with that information? Those are published guidelines, and there's a very active working group around that. The Pharmacogenetics Research Network also developed a re-sequencing platform for 84, what we call very important pharmacogenes, including CYP2D6 and other CYPs, transporters, and drug-target genes. And then we've spent a lot of time thinking about how to implement those in a clinical environment using clear and acute quality control standards. That's what PGRN has focused on. Obviously, the Electronic Medical Records and Genomics Network Emerge has focused on issues around privacy, around electronic phenotyping, around generating large populations, and the issues around decision support. So in the Emerge PGX project, we have three aims. The first aim is to identify patients who are going to deploy this PGRN platform in. We also have an aim of developing a list of actionable variants. And as those of you who have thought about this problem will recognize there, that list is pretty small. Might be less than a dozen. And then re-sequence those VIP, 84 VIP genes, identify the actionable variants. The target is to do this in 9,000 subjects across the network. And the things that we're focused on, mostly in the network, are CYP2C19 and clopidogrel. Warfarin is a focus, although there's recent data that make people a little nervous about implementing warfarin in a routine clinical environment. There's a Simvastatin implementation project. And then there are others that I'll mention if somebody asks. To identify target patients, there are two ways to do it. One way is to recruit new patients. Another way is to look at patients who are already in the biobank. But we're basically using predictive algorithms that say what is the likelihood that this patient over the next three years or five years will be exposed to a statin drug or will be exposed to an anti-platelet or an anti-coagulant drug. And there are informatics approaches that allow us to identify so-called high-risk patients and engage them in this EmergePGX project. So there's newly recruited subjects as well as existing subjects within the biobank. The second name then is to take the ones who have actionable variants, deposit them in the electronic medical record, display the data, deploy decision support, and then track outcomes. And I'll tell you what the outcomes are in a moment, but basically there are two kinds of outcomes. Number one is what we call process outcomes and that is how well does this work? How good is the genotyping? How many times does the decision support fire? And then the other outcome, of course, is how does that affect people's healthcare? And then the third aim is to create a repository for all the other variants that we're gonna discover, common and rare, that are not clearly linked to a variable drug response. And that repository is in the process of being created and has a name and has a logo and that's the most important first step to developing the utility. So it's Sphinx, and I wish I could remember what Sphinx stands for, but I'm pretty sure the P stands for pharmacogenetics. So the outcomes, I'm not gonna list them, but again, there are process outcomes. How many patients do you recruit? What does the sequencing look like? Most centers are actually validating the results of sequencing of an orthogonal platform and what does that look like and the others that are listed here. And then the healthcare outcomes, we're thinking about these kinds of outcomes with respect to specific drugs. As well, among the 84 genes, there are six that have a special designation from the American College of Medical Genetics as quote actionable unquote. So if we find a variant in one of those genes, there is a thought that we should be delivering those results to patients and physicians and we're gonna have a project around how to do that and what kind of variants we find. So this is, I think, my last slide. This is what Emerge looks like right now. And these are the numbers. And the total is about 350,000 subjects. There's genome-wide association data at each of these sites and there is an imputed set, and this is a huge project that goes on in the genomics working group of about 51,000 imputed genomes across these sites. So we think this is gonna be an incredibly rich resource for mining for discovery. And I thought I would close with a personal opinion and that is that if we're going to personalize medicine, if we're going to treat an individual patient differently from some mean approach, then we have to have evidence. And in order to have evidence, you have to have very large numbers. So I call this the paradox of personalized medicine. If you have 100 patients and you wanna treat one differently, there's no evidence that you could ever develop. If you have 100,000 patients and you wanna treat 1,000 of them differently, then you can start to develop evidence. So in order to personalize medicine, in order to individualize therapy for individual patients, we have to have very large data sets to draw from. And one of the lessons I think we're learning across Emerge is that you have to have very large data sets from multiple ancestries. And we have some ancestries represented in Emerge, but not all. So one of the really great appeals of this particular meeting for me is the notion of creating these kinds of resources worldwide in order to understand genetic diversity and in order to personalize medicine across the world. Thank you very much.

Welcome to this week's edition of Business in Hawaii. I'm Daelyn Yanagida, and we are broadcasting live from the Think Tech studios in downtown Honolulu. If you want to tune in live, we are at www.thinktechhawaii.com. You may also subscribe to our programs and get on our mailing list there as well. The theme of Business Hawaii is to share with you local stories of local people by local businesses, and our guests share with us how they were able to build successes and opportunities in our community. In the Think Tech studio today is Lio Fujikawa, economic development specialist with the Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism. Wow, Lio, what a mouthful. Thank you so much for joining us. Thank you for having me. It was wonderful. You know, D-bed. Yes. Likely the best kept secret in Hawaii. It can be kind of intimidating to people, I think. We don't necessarily go out and promote ourselves, but we do our work, and we hope that speaks for us. D-bed is really about creating jobs, creating a diversified economy, and especially jobs that are meaningful, that pay well, or sustainable. So our division, the business development and support division actually is pretty much the public-facing part of D-bed, and we actually do a lot of outreach on one part, and we do other work in terms of export promotion, for example. So today I'm hoping that we could, the first slide, showing that we have all this information that I'm going to be talking about, but it's all on our website, invest.hawaii.gov, and people can sign up for our emails as well, but I'll be kind of giving an overview of what we do at the BDSD. Very nice. What exactly does that mean? What do you do, Lyle? So people tell me, and I do think I have one of the best jobs as well, because I actually get to go out and meet all these business owners, entrepreneurs, and sometimes go overseas to go to those markets as well. But I work in, actually we have two branches, but within the division I do work on what I call our domestic side, which is the business support. We have our enterprise zones program, community-based economic development, but because of my background, having worked in Japan for many years, I actually work on export promotion as well in going into Japan, and a little bit of business attraction and investment attraction. So I get to do work on both sides, but our division is really focused on getting into a place where we can actually support individual businesses. We don't do it ourselves. We work with other partners and we gather resources, and we do so through various programs. So maybe the next slide, talking about our enterprise zones program. This is actually one of the best kept secrets. Unfortunately, people really should be looking at this. It's a incentive program for businesses that create jobs. It's really a statewide partnership with the counties. We are signing up businesses all the time. We become more efficient with an online format as well. But the whole point is if you have an eligible business and you're creating jobs every year, you can actually get your GT waived. If you have a contractor who's doing work for you, their GT can be waived. So you can put that money back into your business and therefore keep growing. We've had huge companies, DR Fortress, Maui Brewing Company, and you can see where they've gone and they were maybe smaller at one point, and so they sell this at an advantage. As an advantage. So definitely, as an entrepreneur, you want to use whatever you can. Everything that I'm talking about is a free service, and so companies really should look at signing up and getting that information because it's available. We also provide an annual resource, the Hawaii Small Business Fair, the next slide. This is just a brochure, but we had this most recently at the Leeward Community College. Next year, we'll be planning at most likely Honolulu Community College. We work with several partners. We have the school, SBA Hawaii, DCCA Business Action Center, SBDC, Patsy Mink Center, FOREVER, FOREVA, HONO, and IRS. What we do is we actually offer over 25 classes and it becomes a broad and it can be deeper as well, ranging from starting a business, business planning, to quick books, to creating a food truck business, or even managing your IP. So we try to capture a lot of businesses there. A lot of small business owners will attend a lot of people with ideas only, and they're looking for resources. They're looking to validate their ideas. This is really going to work. We actually have exhibitors too. I'm going to say about 30 exhibitors. The banks are there for the guaranteed SBA loans. We have, as I mentioned, the Patsy Mink Center, SBA, sometimes the post offices that help us with the shipping part of the business. That is a huge resource to help small businesses get started. If you kind of think about our pipeline, as we're saying, the community and small businesses getting started, hopefully we could nurture them and get them to a size that is big enough to actually begin exporting. So I'll talk about that a little bit later. I don't have a slide for Seabed, but we do have a microloan program. And we actually are working with the Hawaii Department of Agriculture. There are loan officer, loan servicing partner. And it can be anything for farmers to purchase farming equipment, for helping with the marketing, all that kind of business support, if you will. We are seeking more CDFIs, Community Development Financial Institutions, for those non-egg loans that we're thinking of, as we were talking about, there's a lot more organizations that seem to be really looking at the social impact and understanding that we need to diversify our economy and we have to support many different aspects of it. How do we target, like you were saying, we really try to see where the needs are and try to put resources there. A really interesting program that has just begun, the next slide, the Opportunity Zones Program, is actually that's the Hawaii Business Fair. So we had all the exhibitors there showing, you know, people consulting. And then of course the idea is to capture them and to get them in the pipeline and service them later as they have more questions and whatnot. Hawaii Opportunity Zones is a result of the Tax Act 2017 and it's a unique program where you have investors with a lot of capital gains that actually can reinvest that into a fund that needs to be created. That fund will then invest in Opportunity Zones and that's based on census tracks that are designated. We have a number of brochures on our website at the Opportunity Zones page talking about where the specific areas are and we are still waiting for a lot of guidance from Treasury and IRS about how things are going to be going. At this point we're trying to work with partners to just gather information and support businesses and I think, you know, the next couple of months we'll see some new guidance and we'll be able to really act. But right now I think we're getting a lot of interest. This will be something I think you might talk about later. The benefit of this is really again taking a resource, the capital, and applying it to this advantage area and it could be a business that needs to be rejuvenated, it could be a building, community center, it could be Greenfield or what have you. So there's a lot of options and people are really excited about this program. The large program that we, large impact program that we do work on is the High Step Program and it's the Hawaii State Trade Expansion program that is partially funded by the SBA and that's actually a very successful program for us in terms of our outreach and also the impact. But exports, you know, as we think about how do businesses grow, right? We have an environment here, maybe you're on an island in Molokai and you're just thinking about selling to your neighbors. You have to think about, of course, selling to the rest of the state. You know, it's about really thinking about what your potential is and our job is to show businesses that they do have, kind of give them ideas that they can do these things. Exporting is not just selling to the US mainland, but it's about really looking at overseas markets such as Japan that have huge affinity, right? And we have a lot of opportunity there to continue expanding. In our lifetimes, it will not end. The High Step Program is probably one of the most interest for me because we talk to so many startup entrepreneurs who envision their business here, but do not think right away at the get-go about the exports. Right, right, right. And so actually exporting, it doesn't have to be just apparel or gift items or food. It could be services, right, architects, engineers. And we're trying to develop that further as a software developer, right? As we have those other aspects of the economy, cleaner, right, higher paying, right, those kinds of businesses, if we can put sort of the Hawaii brand on it, definitely we could promote that as an export. The programs that you folks are creating over at D-Bed, you and your colleagues, simply amazing, I think don't get enough airtime, if you will, but when we come back, I'd like to talk about a few more of them and maybe share some of those success statistics with us on where that goes. So we are going to take that short break. This is Business in Hawaii. We'll see you back here shortly. Hi, I'm Rusty Komori, host of Beyond the Lines on Think Tech Hawaii. My show is based on my book, also titled Beyond the Lines, and it's about creating a superior culture of excellence, leadership, and finding greatness. I interview guests who are successful in business, sports, and life, which is sure to inspire you in finding your greatness. Join me every Monday as we go Beyond the Lines at 11 a.m., Aloha. Aloha, I'm Stan Osterman, a host here on Think Tech Hawaii, a digital media company serving the people of Hawaii. We provide a video platform for citizen journalists to raise public awareness here on the island. We are a Hawaiian non-profit that depends on the generosity of its supporters to keep on going. We'd be grateful if you go to ThinkTechHawaii.com and make a donation to support us now. Mahalo. Welcome back to Business in Hawaii. Today with us today is Lyle Fujikawa from D-Ved, huge title, but amazing things that are coming out from your department. When we went to break, we were talking about businesses, entrepreneurs thinking about exports as part of their business model. Yes. Definitely, exporting really should be on people's minds because we have the disadvantage of geography in Hawaii, but it's an advantage because people want to compare the unique climate, being away from everything again. From that, obviously culture and the mix of cultures that we have and then whatever products that can be developed from that have a unique brand value that is highly desired. Whenever someone is thinking about manufacturing, really you should be thinking down the line. Yes, I should be exporting. Starting with the mainland, that's technically shipping outside of the state, but what we're talking about is overseas. This is something where actually all states have their own programs in the SBA, federal funds, they put it together. We have to put a proposal in every year. Luckily, we've been receiving funds and we've been putting it to good use. If you can see on the slide, the metrics, the total impact that we're actually creating jobs, the ultimate measure is really the taxes collected, the sales being done. I'm actually planning a trip to Osaka in July in a couple weeks to take about 30 companies to a department store. They have done a tremendous job of putting together a Hawaii fair. They do this for various regions, but the Hawaii fair is by far their biggest. It's a one-week period, the Hankyu Umeda department store, and 250,000 people will come through. It's all segments. There's hula, there's music, there's food, and they just make it seem as best as they can in Hawaii and creating that environment that people want to buy. It's a really great opportunity for those smaller companies who don't have the capacity to really export per se, but to show up and have a consumer right there. They're selling, they're doing validation, brand billing a little bit, and it's a really good experience. Building upon that, in September, we have our Tokyo International Gift Show, which is our largest. We take about 80 companies every year, and that is really a B2B, your more traditional exporting, finding importers, the distribution, and we've had some really successful companies. Hawaiian Chip Company has done really well. They still have their chips, the very delicious arrow chips, but they realize that the manufacturing of hot sauce would be more economic in the sense of the profit and all that. The application of that, they found food service clients, they realize that they can get the retail and all that. We have some food companies, but we have a lot of apparel companies, and gift items, if you will, soap, and natural products. That's an interesting area that really can grow further. This contention of 30 folks that are heading out to Osaka with you, they came through Highstab? We contribute some funds to the program, to the Umeda program. The buyer actually comes to Hawaii, and we've taken, her name is Sala Lozanshi. We go to Maui, the main Maui County Fair, and find some companies. We're always suggesting good companies for them to feature. The best thing is, she's young, she's a woman, she knows what the target audience wants. We have a great pipeline of showing these companies, and in the end, they know what it has to sell. It has to make money for the company, and everybody will, because it's not only the company itself, but it's the Hawaii brand. It's authentic Hawaii. There's always, like Hawaii, we never get away from that, but we have to always, as much as possible, promote the authentic Hawaii brands that are made here, and have the true representation of O'Lohan and everything. Supporting those brands, and hopefully they can get to a larger size where they can participate in other, become bigger, do exporting. The reason why we do that is because it's manufacturing, wholesaling. Those are the jobs that we hope to create. If you get into that intellectual property of Hawaii brands, we can hire value to mitigate the cost of the shipping, and then being so far away from everything. Also, another export that sometimes is not really thought of as an export is actually the International Student Attraction, which is our next slide. It's actually a tremendous economic engine that we've been focusing on the past few years, but creating almost 500 million total economic impact. I actually, anecdotally, I actually saw this in action. A student from Australia was visiting, I'm sorry, she was studying oceanography at UH, her family came to visit. They didn't just come to Oahu, they went to Maui. They camped out and they spent money there, and they came here to Oahu, and they spent money. You can really see that you have this additional impact. It's a great way to attract, of course, ideas, people who, if they figure out a way to not, of course, you can't remain an student visa, but if you're a creating company, they themselves become entrepreneurs, or bringing capital, not just intellectual, but actual financial capital, to strengthen the Hawaii economy. It's a tremendous thing. I think that's, again, Hawaii as being such a unique place, attracting so many people. It's an obvious solution. So for entrepreneurs who aren't familiar with all of the programming that D-Bed does, where do they start? They really, they can come to our website and just start looking. We're very fortunate because we have a pretty good search engine presence. The last slide shows our website, but we have an email sign-up as well, and we don't do all the work ourselves. We have partners, and so once you sign up and you indicate what you're interested in, definitely we will put you in touch with the right person to help you. We work with HDDC, they're a sister, you know, we're part of D-Bed, but they obviously work on technology. They have their new sandbox, you know, co-working space, but they also work on manufacturing. I saw Staten Oscherman, you know, the energy part is really important. And then creative industries, division, working on, you know, the songwriting, the filmmaking, you know, all those aspects of intellectual development, creative development that can also drive our economy. So we have a lot of different areas within D-Bed as well as working with other partners, but if you say what you need, you know, we can definitely put you in touch. Looking forward to that. Before the show, I was laughing with you about, oh, an economic development specialist, you know, you just bury yourself in analytics and metrics and numbers. We have a division, a research division that does, right, they publish the annual data book, which is a huge resource. They do studies for the ledge all the time. We do studies together. We get all the data, you know, they're breaking everything down and putting back up together for us for communicating, you know, end results. But yeah, it's great because we get to go and meet people in person and really help them because we can see that the results, you know, every year they get better and better. And I'll have, you know, our long phone calls and at the end, invariably, they'll say, thank you so much because I'm giving them a lot of, it's not just this, but it's all my experience, you know, living in Japan and working in Japan. And I always thank them. I say, well, you're doing the hard work. You're the small business and doing all that. So let's work together to find success. So what are some of the things that you would like to create forthcoming for Tibet? Just continue to work, you know, like I said, we focus on certain areas and if we can continue to be integrated, synergistic and find those relationships, finding a way to share information easily, confidentiality is important. We don't ever share, you know, business knowledge or, you know, the results and all that individually. We're very careful about how we work with our company information. We protect that. But definitely that openness of, I might not be able to help you, but this person can or together, you know, like we don't have loan officers or we're working with CDFIs to do loans, just really continue to do that. Because that is the only way we're going to get better, right? So I hope through technology and just continue to work together. Do you think that folks aren't participating in these programs because they just don't know about them? I think so. I think they're so busy. They say, OK, I'm starting my business. And then it's like, you know, from day one, they're just, that's all they're focusing on. What we talked about is sometimes hard to ask for help. I don't know what I need help with, right? We don't know. We don't know. So come see, well, you don't necessarily have to see us. You can go to SBDC at Manoa. You know, go see Joe Burns or the Patsy Mink Center. They can help you structure your business. You know, maybe you need to work on certain aspect of it. You know, is it cash flow? Is it just, you know, your accounting system, right? You know, having those tools available. I was talking to an artist. She's an artist. She creates jewelry, beautiful jewelry. And she's talking about her credit terms. And I'm not even a financial expert, but I say, that sounds too generous to me. I think you need to tighten it up and demand more and step up and say, hey, I'm worth it. You know, and let's work together, right? So because that's what it is, right? It's mutual. You can't just give everything to, you know, somebody else. But it's that kind of thing where people are so focused on one, maybe the business idea, but not seeing how they can expand it, how they can make it easier for themselves, right? But there's so much out there. So, you know, Google search, you can find things. I do want to give our viewers one more shot at how to get in touch with you. Yes, please. So if we could put up that last slide, this is how they can find you? Sure, yeah. Emails we send out periodically. We do a lot of seminar training. We send out notices. We always have news on our website. But once you get in the system, there's other various ways that you can participate in programs. So the main thing is get an email. And hopefully we can talk. Lyle, I appreciate you. I appreciate D-Bed and the amazing programs that you folks work so hard to bring to us. And I'm really excited to hear more about the different sectors in D-Bed. So unfortunately, we are out of time. But thank you to Lyle for joining us today. And we look forward to hearing more about the different sectors in D-Bed and their exciting projects. A really big thank you to the great production staff here in the studio. And if you would like to be a guest on our show, please email your information to shows at thinktechhawaii.com. Business in Hawaii airs every Thursday at 2 p.m. And we look forward to seeing you here next week.

It's Foundation Friday, I'm Bianca Renee and you are watching Bianca Renee Today and today I'm finally going to be trying the Fenty Beauty Ease Drop Foundation. This foundation is supposed to be the answer to those who like to wear like a BB cream or a tinted moisturizer just getting you a very subtle no makeup makeup look. So that's what we're going to do today. Now the funny thing is if you go to the Fenty Beauty website you can see a beautiful video of Rihanna applying this herself. So here you'll see Rihanna go from flawless to more flawless. It made a very subtle difference because she's already so gorgeous. So I mean I'm no Rihanna, I actually have some flaws to cover up today so we'll see how this does on non-perfect skin. But it does come in 25 shades so it says if you were able to find your pro filter foundation color there's a shade for you. I originally bought the wrong color because I used the Sephora foundation matcher and it gave me a shade that was too dark. But if you just go straight to the Fenty Beauty website and you look up your pro filter foundation it'll tell you what range you fall in between. So I'm wearing number 15. It says it's going to pair well with your skincare and your primer so I already have on my moisturizer but I'm going to add the Fenty Beauty pro filter soft matte primer first. And I think I'm going to apply it with my fingers today just like Rihanna because you know might as well follow the boss. So here's my skin before. Now let's see how it looks a little bit more blurred. I also put a poll on Instagram asking if you guys want me to use this with a concealer or a setting powder and you said no. You said you want to see this all on its own. So you about to get a very natural look today. Now Rihanna says two or three drops. One, two, three. That's it. Okay let's just do one side. Mix it together. Let's just press it into the skin. This is a very good color match for me. Let me just try to do one side. Perfect match. You almost don't see it at all. Do you guys see a difference? Almost too natural. I don't think I see a difference. Now let me try with a brush and see if we get some more coverage. I'm going to put a couple drops on here. There we go. Yeah I don't know about the finger application. Oh yeah, much better. Now I see a difference. Just going to lightly buff it on there. And it says for a light to medium coverage, long wearing, sweat resistant and transfer resistant. That's better. I really didn't notice a difference at all with just my fingers but I do like how it's looking with a brush. Let's see if I can cover up this little blemish I have here. Now let's add some more to the other side. I'm honestly not a tinted moisturizer baby cream type of girl but I really think that's just because it's from my past insecurities of having acne for majority of my life. So I'm just so used to full full coverage, long lasting, all day wear. Cover up all my acne that I don't even know how to act with a light coverage anything. So I just have to kind of get used to and remind myself that I don't have that acne anymore to cover so I can get away or at least feel comfortable in a light coverage cream foundation. But I think I'm just brainwashed into thinking that I need full coverage. Okay, that's nice. This is not the first time I've used this foundation. I've been using it with a sponge but I think my favorite application is by using a brush. It hasn't lasted very long on my skin like for a day to day but I'll try it again today and like really pay attention this time. But right now that does look really good. Very natural, perfect color match. Since you guys told me I could not add concealer today, I'm going to add a little bit more under the eyes. I did notice and learn that when you're using a BB cream tinted moisturizer or something very light, you got to be careful with what concealer that you use. So the concealers I were using were just too harsh to blend in with this light foundation. So just remember if you're using a light coverage foundation, use a light coverage concealer because the full coverage concealer and the light coverage foundation is going to have you looking crazy. Alright, not bad. I would look better with some concealer. Let me check the poll one more time to see if the vote changed. 43% of you said with concealer 57% said without. 35% of you said use the powder. 65% said no powder. But let me continue on with this no makeup makeup look that I honestly haven't really mastered so we're going to just do this together. So I'm going to add a little bit of color to my cheeks. This is by Lys, they black owned brand from Sephora and it's a cream blush, which I don't really use all the time. But I just feel like this is a very like finger type look. So blending this on my cheeks, just a little color. Then I'm going to get the Fenty kilowatt hustler baby highlight because we got to stay glowing if we're not going to have any other makeup on. Little shimmer there, little shimmer there. I say little and then I put a whole bunch. Definitely need some mascara. This is their real magnet mascara by Benefit. It gives me some extreme length. Mascara will definitely make you look more alive during these no makeup makeup looks. Oh yeah lashes make everything better. Now for my brows, I'm going to use the Hood of Beauty bomb brows and the number six Rich Brown to give me a very natural look. I say that like I'm not going to draw a line, but we'll see. I always love a brow pencil that comes with a little spoolie on the back. Okay now to finish off the look, I'm going to use some kind of like a colored chapstick from Wear Beauty. This is Honor and Empathy. Honor is just clear. It feels so good. It's like a fancy chapstick basically. And then I'm going to use the color Empathy for a little pop of color. Cute. I want to add a little bit of contour. Am I loud? It's probably cheating. This is why I never do the no makeup makeup look because all of a sudden I accidentally did a full face. Just a little, just a little bit of contour just to chisel the face. And that is my very simple no makeup makeup look. So now let's see how I look compared to before. Very nice. So I can see this being like a favorite for all the zoom calls. We don't want to do a full face just to be on a one hour call or like a work day from home. Quick airing you don't want to look too like I just woke up. So that is my quick and easy no makeup makeup look. Keeping it super soft, super natural, very light coverage. It feels really light on the skin. Doesn't feel like I'm wearing any makeup. Doesn't feel cakey at all. Once again they do come in 25 different shades. I got mine from Sephora and it is $29.50. So it's kind of pricey but it's fenty and it's Rihanna. So you're also paying the stunt a little bit. Almost all the shades are sold out on the Fenty Beauty website. So you might have better luck at a Sephora or a Sephora inside JC Penney. But let me know what you guys think. Leave all your thoughts below. Are you someone that prefers a tinted moisturizer or BB cream versus a full covered foundation? Or are you a full coverage type of person? If you enjoyed this video make sure to give me a thumbs up and subscribe. I post new videos every week. You also can follow me on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok at MsBeyondGrenet. I'll see you guys next time. Thanks for watching Beyond Grenet Today.

Hey, good morning everybody and welcome to the second of our great Cambridge chair planning panel sessions This is on first conversation and in call for sight stated that we released last week and We had one of these sessions yesterday, which is very busy had a hundred of people here and hopefully we get the same today and I'll run how the sessions going to work and For those of you who haven't been to one before we're getting a little bit used to these now I think this is mine and Hannah's certainly third webinar in two days. So so hopefully we'll make as seamless as possible and Essentially, we've got an hour and in which we've got our panel here, which I'll introduce you in a minute and Hannah and John are going to run through some slides explain exactly what we've done in terms of the release of data What it means and then there will be a couple of questions that we've already been asked and then hopefully We should leave a lease to her half an hour maybe more for questions at the end and All the questions that you ask we will answer those we don't get you today We'll put on the website and put answers on there too And if you go to the website there will be all of the links and FAQs of questions We've already been asked so you should be able to see them there and So without further ado, I shall go around the panel and introduce them And then we'll just do a tiny bit of housekeeping before we get on to the Presentation so I'm going to go around to my right first Unfortunately, it's not a table so screen so I'm going to go around to Hannah. Do you want to introduce yourself Hannah? Hi everybody, my name is Hannah Loftus I work with the shared planning service leading on communications and public engagement generally in our communities Thank you, Hannah Caroline Hello, I'm Caroline Hunt. I'm a strategy and economy manager working on the local plan with a particular focus on strategic matters I'm Nadine. I'm the local plan project manager working with the team to ensure the local plan gets delivered Thanks Nadine and John John Dixon planning policy manager also working on the local plan And we've got Stephen today as well Yes, good afternoon everyone I'm Stephen Kelly on the joint director of planning and economic Thanks Stephen and up in the top. We've got Joe Burnham She's our tech wizard so she's doing all the logistics for you to bring it to bring this to you seamlessly so so thanks Joe Yeah, as I said, we've got an hour. So there will be time for questions There's no chat function in the box down the bottom There is a question and answer function and you can put your questions in there You can ask questions anonymously and we leave your name on there We won't be telling reading out anybody's names just to let you know the session is being recorded So you will be able to view it back on our YouTube channels And they will be on both the SCDC and the Cambridge city Websites and also on our great account is shared planning with us which we'll put a link up at the end So without further ado, I'm gonna hand over. I think is it John starting first and hand over to John Dixon He's gonna start the presentation for you Okay, everybody here comes some slides We're running these presentations really to tell you about the data We've just released give a full understanding of what it includes And make sure people understand how it should be interpreted and really what happens next in a local plan making process I should stress at this stage. This is a purely a data release phase No decisions have been taken on any issues raised in comments No decisions have been taken Regarding any site submitted is purely publishing at the moment white information is be received following the consultations We've already completed Um, first of all, it's probably worth giving a quick reminder about where we are overall in our plan making process As you'll see plan making actually takes A number of years from when you start at the very beginning on the early ideas what the plan might be doing All the way through to adoption We started Back in 2019 with some initial evidence and early engagement with Our key stakeholders. We had some workshops with our our members parish councils, for example And we talked them through about what's the issues our first conversation consultation might be looking at We then carried out a pretty major consultation exercise in january february Earlier this year when hopefully many of you Came across us where we got out and about around the district. We published some key questions We needed some early feedback on in plan making and asked for your thoughts through various ways, which we'll come on to in a minute um We then move on and we're at that stage. We're publishing the information we've received through that consultation Our next step will be we're currently preparing various Evidence bases to inform the plan looking at those real strategic choices. We've got available to us In plan making and we hope to take back some of that information to Our member working group later this year We'll then throw that up with some further engagement again with our key stakeholders like parish councils and so on resident associations For the range this year the next key public consultation stage however Is in summer autumn 2021 when we go out there and say well having done some of that work This is the preferred option for the plan and get Full engagement feedback on that from the public Um allowing people to comment on the proposals and the ideas the councils have come up with for the plan That's not the end of the public consultation There are several further stages have you seen our diagram there when we publish the draft plan And then the plan we propose to submit for adoption. There will be full chances to engage at that point as well Once you've been through all through all those consultations, we then go to An examination when the plan is tested by an independent inspector as well And they eventually write the report and say where the plan is sound and the council can adopt So it is a long process quite early days, but there's lots of opportunities to engage as we go through it And next slide please And I'll hand over to Hannah to take you through some more details about what we consulted on and some of the information we've received through that consultation Thanks, John. So yes as John has just outlined. We had a 10-week consultation back in January and February which was Pre-COVID luckily so we could do a lot of getting out and about and talking to people about what they'd like to see and so forth The focus really was on that the big themes that might shape the plan going forward And we did use a lot of different methods to encourage participation if you do look on our website We have a summary report actually that sets out some of that information about how we got feedback And what we've learned from that So now what we're publishing is everything that everybody told us during that consultation We were asking about the big themes and where we should build and other matters But also two of those questions were suggestions for where development should be located and also where we might look to Protect or extend our green infrastructure network It's really important as John mentioned to understand. This is just what people have told us at this stage is only the raw data There's no conclusions assessment of whether those comments are good comments or bad comments No conclusion of whether the sites are suitable sites or unsuitable sites But it is really in the interest of us in transparency terms us publishing for you everything that's been sent to us that we possibly can Are published there is a little reduction of personal data in accordance with our privacy statements We're putting back in the public domain As you probably won't know it's all available on our website And then the full submissions are in our consultation system office to consult which is all publicly visible from there as well We've also published excel files of our data sets So those are the call for sites the call for green sites and also the comments received That's again in the interest of open data and a more digital planning Means that you can download those you can filter or analyze or analysis if you'd like to there's also an interactive map Which is linked through to the full records for each site So if you find your site, you're interested on the map There's a link there that will take you through to the full site submission and likewise the other way around And pdf maps for those of you who might be more interested in something static Just a little bit about what we got back from the first conversation And I think we're really excited about the level of response we got here And how we can use that to help shape the strategy going forward We had over eight and a half thousand responses Which we're now publishing those range from the kind of quick comments that people could leave on our website Those could be left anonymously We're just a sort of one click way of people leaving some comments and ideas for us Through to the more lengthy comments through email submissions And through the opus to consult system for our registered users as well And it includes over 650 development site suggestions 21 green site suggestions and lots of comments from our events as well This slide just shows you a few more of the kind of headline statistics about the reach here So, you know, we're aware that some people wanted to comment Some people just wanted to find out more and I think that's been really great as well to just have a lot more available online For people to learn educate themselves get up to speed with some of the key issues Some of the things you told us In terms of the big themes climate change was the highest priority and I think that's really great for us because really it is Our priority too and we want to make sure that we are Meaning there's a challenge head on and I'm seeing how plan can help us with that So that was when when we asked respondents to rank the four big themes that are the leaves on the tree in this diagram Climate change was lots of other things associated with that like tree cover like actually the design of development How that should be more passive more adapted to a heating climate and a wet climate in the future Came along with that We also asked you to rank Where you would like to see new development prioritized And densification of existing built-up areas was ranked top by the largest number of respondents, but we did hear a lot of reviews here Just saying that it is not just a numbers game here It's whilst we take account of the really matter and the points made So we're now in the middle of a full analysis of those comments And we'll be reporting back on how they've been taken into account How they've been shaped the the future strategy once we get to the preferred options consultation next year Just a little bit about the call for sites So as many of you will know if you've been following planning for some time Um, this is something that national planning guidance says we should do They say we should hold a call for site suggestions Exercise, but we also look for other sites that fit our spatial strategies So it is not just about seeing what people send us and then picking out of that pool of sites We also do look for other sources of housing land supply and employment land supply as well All of these sites get very rigorously tested through a process that ends up in a Not very naturally named report called the housing and employment land availability assessment That will be a lengthy report which will be published next year Which will go which will go through all of the sites and test them and show you the workings out about why some may or may not be more suitable than others It is worth knowing that on this map, obviously we have many many more sites Suggested than we actually need for development going forward. So it is a There will be a lot of narrowing down that happens over the coming months We received around 16,000 Pares worth of land suggested to us And if you add up what would be it equates to Over 220,000 homes and over five million square of a non-residential floor space Comparing to what we might need to plan for in the next plan We suggested in the earlier consultation that we might be looking at between 5,000 and 30,000 additional homes on top of what's already in the existing plans So that's the kind of green pie slice on this chart here as compared to the whole of the circle Which represents the quantity of sites that we were Sent to support as suggestions So you can see that you know, there really is no need to think just because you see these very large land on a map That we're going to be looking to adopt You know a large proportion of them into the local plan definitely won't be a large proportion Um, there is a comparison with previous plans here as well You know, we this is not a different process from what has happened in the past. We had called for sites We tested them and other sites suggested And the final allocations that were again a very small proportion of the land that was submitted to us at those early stages And published at those early stages as well Just on the core for green sites again Anybody could send a land just like with the development sites anybody can suggest anything Um, so we did have a really wide range of sites if this map looks familiar That's because somebody did actually suggest the whole of the cambridge green belt as a potential site for green infrastructure Someone else put in cambridge airport someone That the cambridge great park concept that she may know about from some local stakeholders who are interested in green spaces That was also submitted A bit like with the core for development sites These aren't the only sites we consider for expanding green infrastructure far from it We've had a green infrastructure evidence based study Which is ongoing at the moment and that has been asking many community groups as well over the summer About where green and structural in their areas should be protected expanded prioritized So just as we do look for other sources of development land that haven't looked for other green sites And we consult our partners You know in terms of the green green networks different green networks and the different green Agencies involved with green infrastructure. We ask their views as well about that So just to sum up what does this mean? It is a normal part of plan making which is about identifying some of our options and being transparent about that And I'm sure many of you have The government wants us to become more transparent and more digital in how we plan This is really part of our efforts in also doing that And opening that how that process works allowing you to ask as many questions as you want But there is no judgment about whether any of the comments or sites have merit And you will be consulted very fully on this at the next stage The preferred option stage we will as as john's outlined We will be showing you what we think the evidence base for the preferred strategy is and what that preferred strategy should be And then what the preferred post sites that go with that might be and at that point We'll be asking you for all of your opinions on that As we talked about it is evidence led it is about developing the right strategy and then finding the sites that fit And when we consult we'll be saying to you firstly, do you think we've got the right strategy? Do you think we're right about how we've interpreted the evidence and secondly, are they the right sites? Do you agree that those sites fit that strategy? Well, do you think some of them are good and some not so good? And we're asking you to thoroughly kick the ties with us and and tell us what you think at that point in time John do you want to just take over on a few more of the next steps in terms of the evidence base and so forth? Thanks. Yeah, so uh, all the sites will be thoroughly tested and we'll be looking to see if they are suitable Available and deliverable will be testing against well all the environmental issues you'd expect us to be looking at So for example, are they at flood risk? What would be the landscaping impact and so on so that evidence base will very much look at the real details around those sites before we make any Decision we'll also be looking at how those sites fit in let's say the overall strategy of the plan So looking at all this issue if we talk through those big themes in choosing the sites we put in the plan How would how would strategies deliver against those themes? We will go through all the comment to receive through the consultations And indeed one of the things we'll need to produce When we get to that that next formal stage next year will be a statement of consultation Showing how we've taken them into account um, the local plan will also be backed up by a long list of evidence on a variety of topics Um, as I mentioned earlier, we are doing some initial work on those which we hope to publish to our joint local plan advisory member group uh, later this year really again exploring those uh, strategic choices available to the plan When they go to our members, they will be published online. So they will be available to view so anyone can read them We're looking to hold some more stakeholder workshops as I mentioned, uh, we held some workshops before we moved on to the first conversation consultation with our parishes and With local stakeholders, you know groups like the environment AC National England and so on all the groups you expect to engage with um Last time round I have to say that was um, large rooms filled with Dozens and dozens of people and I suspect the challenge We're going to have in planning those events later this year is how we do it online But I think we're becoming fairly adept with working online. So I'm sure we'll find a way around it And again, the next big step would be Our full public consultation on preferred options In summer often next year Thanks very much, john And I think we're going to we're going to take some questions and hopefully that The presentation has given you a bit of clarity about what it is we're talking about and answer some of your questions already I think apologies for the bit of poor audio there. Hannah's got some audio issues I think one of the things that we have noticed in not having Some halls to be doing on to consultation workshops In is that we all need to have very very good board bandwidth So um, it's certainly something we should be planning for right? And I think I'll take some questions from the beginning. We try as I said, we try and get through them all But keep them coming. There's quite a lot of you on tend to start with to keep them coming So are you currently receiving comments on the sites that have been submitted or does that come later? So I'm going to hand that one over to Nadine Um, yes in short, we are still inviting comments part of the reason of publishing The information in the way that we have done is to reflect that we started the corporate sites In the early part of last year. So there's there's been quite a lot of time since then And we want to make sure that before we get into the real Missy gritty details of assessing these sites. We've got the most up-to-date information to hand um, and while we said we wanted Uh, uh, well, we've closed the consultation or the corporate sites or news sites any comments that you're able to provide now We would welcome but as soon as possible is Thanks very much Nadine and all can I just pull can I just add just to be clear what we're talking about is being um making sure we've got um Uh, a factual information from from people on those sites This isn't a public consultation at this stage on the sites We've received that will come further down the line once we've undertaken assessments and when we consult on the preferred option next year Just in case that wasn't entirely clear. I thought it was perhaps worth emphasizing Thank you Caroline. Yeah, absolutely is worth emphasizing This is just a bit of a data release or just publishing some of our data now at the moment And okay, so what is the overall development strategy that we've born to decision making on the suitability of the site Is there a greed development hierarch? I think I'm going to come back to you for that one Caroline Thanks paul. Um Well the short answer that is no there isn't a um agreed Strategy at this point. So each time you prepare a new plan you you you look afresh at the appropriate approach to Planning for your development needs and that's both the amount of development and ways how you distribute that development So obviously we have adopted plans and that gives us a starting point to assess But we will be looking afresh taking account of all the factors that are important Today as we're preparing this plan and into the future in identifying. What's the most appropriate development strategy? And as I said in the presentation, we're looking at a range of different strategy options And what would be the right? hierarchy of development within that so Um, this time I think it's fair to say we have a you know an increased Emptiness on particularly climate change and how we address some of these issues Um, so we will be looking very much afresh. So no at this point. There's not an agreed strategy at this point Thank you Caroline. So I'm going to take some questions that were put at the beginning so A couple of process questions. Can we sign up to email updates on on the local plan? And Hannah's nodding her heads. I think you can sign up to email updates for everything that's happening as we're as we're moving things through So say when we sort of five minutes towards the end of this session We will put up All of the channels that you can get hold of us on and then you'll be able to get into that website and sign up for those email updates there And again evidence-based studies are being commissioned for the joint local plan advisory group meeting on october So the evidence base is that we've commissioned have been commissioned for some time now So i'm longer than others because we've asked our Consultants to be doing quite a lot of work. Um, all of the details again are up. I think off the top of my head There's probably about 10 10 studies is there john come over to you for that now, but I think there's more than 10 so the plan will likely be supported by a number of studies We did publish a list actually it's not so convenient available We published a list to our members when we went to them in june So there was a list on our cabinet agenda on our june paper. Perhaps we can put a link to that on our freaking asked questions um So there's a there's a list of sort of studies we're commissioning. There's a there'll also be topic papers So for example on housing on employment and so on We'll put together a topic paper saying the issues we've looked at What are requirements are to respond to nationally? The options we've considered and setting out really why we'll be choosing the approach We're choosing so they'll accompany the preferred option stage next year Thanks john and then to pick that last question up that was related to these is the how Can we get more details of how the technical workshops will work? Will they include workshops per topic and who will get an invitation? I think there's a couple of questions around that so we're kind of as john said we're looking at the logistics of these Now they are consultations. They are essentially just some workshops to You know talk about some of the stuff that we've already just mentioned now We will be probably running them for the same people who got invited to our stakeholder workshops I think it was at the back end of last summer. So the initial ones just before the issues and options consultation itself As we've mentioned the logistics are slightly changed now in terms of how we run these so although there's some Good stuff in what we can do online We're going to have to think very carefully about exactly how we have these You know will manifest themselves possibly as webinars, but we will put all the details up more We'll post if you do sign up for updates on the website Then I'm sure that we can arrange for that You know for you to have updates on how to access those and you'll get invites through for those of you will be invited to them Okay, so moving on Let's go back up to the top. Does the council anticipate housing supply can be provided in the local plan? Without allocating any residential green belt sites. So I think I'm going to come to you for that Caroline I think it's really an issue around it's going to be a question around strategy. So in pure, you know, pure land takes Considerations clearly there's a lot of land outside the green belt within greater Cambridge And a lot of land within the built area of Cambridge as well We will though need to look at what are the reasonable options available to us And there's a wide range of those as you saw in the presentation everything from densifying within Cambridge Building on the edge of Cambridge new settlements villages along public transport corridors. So there's a range of different Ways we could distribute the growth that we'll need to plan for And we will have to look at this early stage on whether There are any exceptional circumstances. That's the national test. It is a high bar that would have to be Met But at this stage we can't say that there won't be any development in the green belt We have to go through the process of looking at the reasonable options and working out what the most appropriate strategy Is and that's a really important part of the process that we have an open mind at the beginning of the process And work that through we recognise the importance of green belt though and obviously that will play into our considerations I think it's just worth saying we asked a question in the first conversation specifically In fact, there were a couple of questions about green belt issues in general So those will also help inform the view that we take. So I think there's some really useful and interesting points raised there Around the whole range of green belt issues, not just around climate but biodiversity and many other things as well Yeah, absolutely. And this is obviously being one of the major Parts about the theme for our local plan as well. So you can kind of segue into that. I've got a question here It's great to see the public supporting increased tree cover And can you consider setting a tree canopy cover target for areas of new development would then trust suggest an ambitious target 30% now john, I don't know whether you might be able to answer that question So tree cover obviously is important not only for biodiversity but you're providing shade in part of responding to climate change So climate change at biodiversity are both very much important issues For the plan to look at I think there are issues we'll certainly be looking at whether they're picked up through the urban design policies And whether that will be something we can pick up in a future design guide for example but also There is the plans are always supported Protecting enhancing biodiversity through developments There is a new specific requirement coming from government to achieve net gain through development So it's going to be interesting to see how we can use those proposals to Use tree cover as part of that response as well. So it is a really interesting one to move forward And yes, it's an important issue to the council as well Great. Thanks very much john So how will sites that are taken Sorry, can I say that again? How will sites that are in the current local plan But have not yet seen develop to be taken into account? I've seen Caroline who's flushing us. She probably want to take this from being our current local plan expert Uh, well, I'm not sure about that pool. Um, but uh I think it's fair to say that you know your starting point would be that Sites within your current plans are likely to get rolled forward into the next plan But absolutely we have to look at whether they remain Um, deliverable and whether they remain suitable in the context of our any new strategy that we are we identify in the plan So, um, if there's been a change in circumstance, for example Uh, then we would have to look at that, um, afresh But we need to be able to be confident that a site is still deliverable so, um A number of our allocations in both the adopted plans have already got permission, but where they haven't we will look carefully at them Thanks, Caroline. We're just seeing a couple of questions around the, um joint Local plan advisory group So you can find all of the details because it's a it's a public group You've got to find all of the details of of the membership of that group on either of the council's website website Audience lift Hannah, can you Yeah, see if we can get that on to our own website so we can sign post it at least Um, we haven't set a date for that meeting yet because we're still working through the the the program of of those kind of Stakeholder workshops and what we've got to have in place for those. So that will be those two questions and Okay question around testing sites here Um, this is obviously going to be our pretty much what we're going to be really focused on doing for the next few months And so when testing sites, how will legal constraints especially natural and historical heritage being taken into account? I suspect all three of you wouldn't mind answering that question But I'm going to give it to Nadine to start with and then others can jump in if they want Okay, so in terms of testing it'll be so the sites will be tested against the known information that we've got And when we get to the point where we're publishing The sites and our assessment of those will publish that alongside the methodology that we've used. So it's all clear and transparent in terms of the specific Quiteria that will be set out in that methodology And do you have anyone else going to add into that carolina john? So I think it's obviously clear to say we very much look at The natural historic issues So we will be working with our conservation colleagues to look at the impact of sites on heritage assets like conservation areas listed building schedule monuments or make sure they're fully assessed and on the natural areas biodiversity and so on the same we have within the council officers who are Especially in biodiversity And we'll be consulting those and clearly more widely as I mentioned earlier consultees and the plan include Natural England the environment agency and so on so very much be engaging those stakeholders as well as the planning managers So I think the answer is we'll thoroughly test those issues Yeah, absolutely another question here about the workshops So And about who will be invited to them who will be invited to the workshops? How are you dealing with the highly paid lobbyists who are already contacting local stakeholders to make their case? And I'm sure you're all aware, you know being in an area like this There's lots of people with lots of interest and you know, that's that's a great thing to have a lot of interest in something That we're doing and you know We have a statutory duty to prepare a plan and it's a you know without prejudice really So we will be inviting communities and those stakeholders to have been involved in the beginning of that And we have to take all comments on board or news on board when we Do go out to consult potentially next summer on the third options But in the meantime, we will be you know, we're trying to be as open with you as possible That's why we're doing some of these workshops and trying to you know, tell you what we're doing So, you know, we know that there's a lot of noise around but we are trying to take everything on board and be fair about how How we how use it Okay, so Let's carry on And or question about getting the email updates five times over can we check our database? We will indeed do that you should be so lucky to get them get them five times So that that will at least you won't you won't forget Hannah I could just come in on that. Yeah apologies to people who may get them more than once It is quite finnishly difficult to manage those databases for various GDPR and other reasons We have to have many lists and we do know that some people are on them twice We are doing our best and we are trying to cleanse them as much as we possibly can so apologies So another key issue, I mean we had a lot a lot of questions around this yesterday Actually, it's only the first one time. I've seen a question come up about it now Obviously, it's a key issue for this area in transport. So what role will transport planning play and John? I'll come to you for that Well, it it's absolutely key. Obviously responding to climate change and so on, which is one of our big themes Also the excessive economy and simply the ability people move around and meet the data they need We will be preparing a transport evidence base to accompany the plan That's going to be exploring the pros and cons of the different choices we have available to us Particularly looking at the impact of our options on not only the roads and how the impact on traffic But one of our main it has to be how we can support people to move more sustainably so using public transport, cycling and walking and so on We'll need to look at how we Where we locate development itself so people can access jobs, services and facilities locally And not need to get in their car for example So it's going to be absolutely key and we're going to be working with other organizations like the combined authority, the county and so on As they're in the highways authority and transport role as well to make sure we're fully informed About their role as well There's a lot of major infrastructure proposal in this area we'll need to consider and consider how how How developed they are in their processes. So for example east west rail and so on and consider how they can influence the plan But we'll be looking to all those issues as we go forward Caroline. Do you want to add anything I've missed? Uh, no, I think that maybe captures the point, you know, this the level of confidence that the local planning authorities need to have in big new planned infrastructure Is is quite high because we we have to show that our strategy is deliverable And part of that is that the infrastructure in place to support strategy Will come forward so That's obviously something that we will have to have a very close eye to as as we go forward with Some of those really big bits of infrastructure that could be quite significant in shaping strategies in this plan and and and beyond into the future But we'll have to look carefully at that and the level of confidence there is as we develop the plan Yeah, absolutely. Um, I notice that on all the maps Cambridge city is black and white and not annotated. What will the local plan say about the city? Hannah I'm just gonna ask you this question quickly Sorry, the um, so I think what the questioner means is that it doesn't look like there are many colored Blobs that were on the map within the city itself Um, I think there's two things to say there firstly Sometimes these things can be a little bit deceptive So obviously some of the sites that people have put forward which are outside of the city are really really big areas of You know currently farmland or undeveloped land And the kind of density or intensity of development you might get on those sites is much Lower than the kind of development you might get or intensity of development on on the site in the city There are city sites and we actually have an inset map so you can see in a little bit more detail There's a pdf inset map that shows you that But you know, I think there's another wider point which is about the other sources of supply and how we look at the city More generally, it's not just about the sites that people suggest to us. It also is about the strategy Maybe john might want to talk a little bit more about how that process works Yeah, so clearly this is a local plan that's jointing it very much will provide the planning policies allocations and designations and so on for both areas We'll need to look at what the best strategy is for the city and as mentioned earlier It will be about whether there are other opportunities within Cambridge and not just the small number that have been suggested to make sure we Do all things you'd expect us to do with a plan for Cambridge looking at areas that can be improved enhanced and how we can meet those Housing employment and other needs as part of grade to Cambridge. So it's not been forgotten It's merely part of that particular mapping and the sites that receive through that process That's great. Thank you very much john And I've got a question for handle of this here So you've actually had your name button in our in our in our questions and answers So it's good that you're here to to answer this one. So the question is Hannah Is it correct that architect handle of this who is handling cams local plan engagement work with fish fifth studio on the master plan For the london tens gateway development corporation the strategy underpinning the master plan for this was One of creating dense housing zones via linear parks and cycling infrastructure Notably fifth studio have the cambridge greenways contract and are working with cppf for those of you who don't know that's cambridge pass for present and future And w w t b c n and m t. I think that's national trust and wildlife trusts who as members of natural cambridge have Have already prior to our prioritized plans for curated parks within with cambridge ahead very long question Hope you've got all of it, Hannah So someone yeah, it's true that I did work with fifth studio very long time ago. It's back 2004 2005 in actual fact So all that I remember working with john press scott on the london tens gateway can you believe it really is um a long time ago when that was um The strategy and yes, I did work with them at the time on it was actually um the lee river park strategy that we worked on And I did some engagement work with local stakeholders Um, I think you know, it's really interesting to look back over the history of some of the kind of wider plans across the country That's something that the team definitely are doing You know, we are looking at at some of the best practice and also the the things that haven't worked out well from other parts of the country and other sites In the past as well as some of the new ideas that have come forward From from thinkers and and when you look at the spatial strategies work that will will be publishing in due course We'll see that we've definitely taken on board some of those ideas. But of course, we're not london We're definitely not the terms gateway, which was you know, many many thousands of hectares of brownfield land very very different landscape there Yeah, thanks. Thanks. Hannah. It's good to have somebody famous on the on the team and you know I think one of the things where he said it's you know having a You know the industry is not actually as big as all that so actually having and getting the best people in To do the work that we'd like to do is is actually, you know You tend to see the same faces about but and you know, I think in terms of the Cppf and the wildlife trusts and the national trust and natural Cambridge ship You know, these are all as we said at the beginning. They're all stakeholders. And you know, they're all part of the area as well So we are talking to all of our partners and stakeholders and residents and citizens equally And so, you know, hopefully that clarifies that Thanks Hannah Okay, so let's back to a few more. We've got six questions still got 15 minutes left So it'd be great to see some more questions coming through And we have got some FAQs as well from previous sessions. So we'll go through some of those as well Maybe to jog people's thoughts And I'm going to go to a site assessment one now. So how will sites be assessed on their impact on operations? Existing neighbouring sites industry So I think we've talked a little bit about how we're going to assess the sites But I'm going to give that back to John just to clarify on those particular issues That's an interesting question. So it's quite a specific one I think if if a site I'm using the example if a site was next to an industrial site We do one of the consultees will be working with Looking at sites is our environmental health team So they will tell us if a site potentially have Has or would be impacted by neighbouring use or equally if it could impact on the neighbouring use Um So quite a specific one, but we do again look at look at those impacts and their interrelationship between sites and the joining sites Thanks, John. Anybody else want to come in on that one? Caroline, did you want to add anything on that? Or are you happy with John's answer? Not always happy with John's answers anyway Um Yes, I mean, I think john john's answered that um, you know, obviously really helpfully. Um We absolutely take account of um Existing uses um in considering the suitability of Uh possible new sites for the local plan. So that's absolutely whether they're compatible with um Existing uses uh or or whether that suggests that they're not a suitable site for a particular use Thanks, Caroline. I know there's one here that you probably will want to answer as well Is what is the position on village development and having worked quite hard on our previous local plan for south cams? I'm sure you'll be interested in answering that one Um Yeah, I mean village development is always an interesting one, isn't it because our villages are um really important parts of our our communities And it's how you Ensure the villages Maintain viable vibrant lively support existing local services and so on But in a way that doesn't overload those services as well and recognizes that sometimes moving from our villages to jobs or services elsewhere is It's difficult or in certainly difficult by public transport. Um, and and maybe requires Using the car and obviously thinking about climate change and sustainability generally You know, we're trying to reduce use by by the car So we will be looking in in a rounded way I think as we develop the the new local plan about what what feels the right The the right way for Looking at possible development At villages and we've asked questions about that again in the first conversation So we will be looking closely at the sort of responses that you've given us and working closely with parish councils As as we move forward through the process, there'll be part of this one of the stakeholders in in the autumn Uh to hear what local views are And I suspect those views may vary from different villages Those whether they're bigger or smaller, but also where they're located and and and sometimes just The nature of that particular community in a particular village. So, um I I think we'll be looking Carefully at that and I don't think we're clear at the moment precisely which way the plan will go or quite what it will say Let's go on that's really helpful. Um How will the benefits and other ecosystem services and stemming from the green belt We mentioned that is a very tricky question. I'm not sure we can probably fully answer that But I'm going to open it up to everybody's let's start with john because he's done a little bit of work with this already So again, it comes down to the evidence base. We're producing and we are producing a green infrastructure strategy to support the plan And that's really looking at what the opportunities are to enhance a green infrastructure and by that I mean Ecology sites or open spaces green spaces And we're looking to do is see as well as as well as you know housing employment and other services We need to enhance green infrastructure as well. So in that way, there may be opportunities to enhance the green belt When we're looking at science specifics, certainly we're looking at the impact of proposals on the green belt In quite a lot of detail. So we would hope to understand the impact if Any land were to be removed what the impact on the green belt was and one of the studies will also be publishing is a green belt Study to look at those issues Yeah, that's great as anyone else got anything else on that They wanted to add in I just um, I'd actually just give a little bit of a plug because we did talk about some of these things in the northeast Cambridge area action plan webinar on biodiversity, which was a couple of weeks ago And we had dan weaver who's one of our ecologists and various other people from across Actually both councils and the county talking about this. So They went into a bit more detail about the measurables and that kind of thing And I do recommend you have a listen on that if you're interested in that theme Yeah, I think that's right Hannah and actually just to kind of keep with that plug You know, so we have run around about I think eight sessions for the northeast Cambridge area action plan And some of those sessions really did unpack some of the specific issues and although they are You know specific to that area we had um housing specialists So we had our both our housing team So they really got into the detail around affordable housing and tenure types those all of those Are available on the website So if you really want to get into some of the detail that some of the experts we've already had on Then then please, you know, please go to the links that we'll put up in probably approximately five minutes before the end And we've got a few more questions coming through. Let's try and get through a few more of these And how will supplementary planning documents such as master plans be integrated into the new local plan? And at what point in the process would these be considered for inclusion? So Caroline, I'll ask you to pick this one up Um Generally speaking supplementary planning documents by definition are supplementing Existing policies in our current plan. So for a number of the sites that have spd's In in place and they may well be coming forwards already Where that's not the case and for any new sites actually we will look carefully at What uh, what's the right way forward for making sure that we have the right level of policy guidance and design guidance As well for bringing those forward in a in an appropriate way to make sure that they They bring all the supporting services and facilities they need to bring but also so that the design is really Uh thought through carefully and make sure that these places come forward in a way that is um bringing Benefits to our our communities and and and our areas moving forwards So there may some may get carried forward. There may be some new spd's prepared in the form of time Thanks, Carol. I mean it might be worth mentioning. I'm sure that for those of you who had some awareness of planning We obviously government Put out a consultation for quite some quite radical changes within the planning system coming forward in the white paper which is Open for consultation until the end of october and some of the proposals within that do you know do Approach some quite very radical changes to plan making so You know, we are currently making a plan in the old system And and we are also commenting on that that document and our comments Through the councils will be you know be going through the council process by the end of october So you will be able to see them, but should any of those, you know, um proposals be put into place It will obviously need to change our thinking. So we are very very closely watching Both that and the changes to the planning system Um, right, let's carry on so is there any plan to consider developing a public transport that is actually public So much of public transport is profit driven and therefore doesn't support outlying areas and those people Have to use cars People really think this is slightly out of the remit of planning, but I'm going to open it up to John may only have a few comments on it and anyone else if they want to to feed into it So transport's an interesting one because us as The local planning authority. We're not the local transport authority That would be the camsure and peter of combined authority Now they produce a local transport plan, which is a bit like our local plan, but for transport obviously And you could have a look at that on their website and one of the things they are definitely look at and they have policies on Is the uh models and approach to public transport vision Uh franchising models and so on to public transport. So whilst I can't get into that detail There is a lot of information out there if you go to their their website Maybe that's another one linked to their site. We could put in our FAQs Thank you, John. Um, let me have a look. We're getting quite a few Coming through right here where is when a village is already a vibrant community But fully stretched as far as amenities and services are concerned Further development will destroy The what we have we came here to live as a village not an urban sprawl So and I'm going to ask you, you know, village design guide experts. So Yeah, I mean, I think it is absolutely right that we know that some of our villages had real issues during the adoption period and the examination period for the last local plan We know that there were five year housing land supply issues and They did result in more unplanned development. Um, which I can understand will contribute to some of the views that are expressing that question Absolutely. And that's why in fact a couple of years ago We did start to develop some more design guidance to really give village communities a bit more Of their own say in their own ability to influence and shape development better So we absolutely don't want to destroy Or create urban sprawl around villages that's inappropriate and it is a balancing act, isn't it between supporting the villages that have services in the right place And do in fact want those services to be sustained whether it's shops schools and so forth By having a vibrant and a younger population often and not just an aging population And overwhelming it. So all of those things definitely will get taken into account Um, but you know, we will be also asking you at the consultation stage next year about whether you think our village strategy is correct As caroline has mentioned It's a really interesting one. I think we're we're very very understanding of how Special the villagers are the character that they have and not wanting that to become destroyed in any way Um whilst also accepting that some of the villages are sustainable locations for you know For people to live with the services and so forth of the public transport Thanks Hannah. I'm going to bring my colleague Stephen in and he's didn't answer the question yet And he said he had to pick up one of our east west rail So can you outline the influence that east west rail will have on the spatial and development strategy? For example, can the planning team influence the location of stations to help realize aspirations to reduce car use and encourage walking in sites and transport hubs? Stephen over to you. Thank you. Sorry about that Well, I think the east west obviously we We've started an engagement process with with east west rail We're keen to understand what their expectations and how their timetable Links to the local plan and the spatial strategy timetable At this moment in time Clearly if there are to be new railway stations, we want to make sure that they are absolutely as accessible and as linked in with existing cycle and walking infrastructure as well as Reflect the the the needs of local places The programming indicated by east west rail does appear to be Slightly longer than the program for the local plan timetable, but clearly as we both move forwards We expect to have to reflect around What east west rail provides as an opportunity? but also some of the potential implications and constraints from it Thank you very much Stephen. That's really helpful And so got around about three or four minutes left. So we'll get through some of these these quickly Let's do one about flood risk. We haven't talked about that yet very much So how are you measuring flood risks? Particularly the west fields seem to be of high interest but also implies significant flood risks Yeah, flood is really important and that's absolutely something that every site gets assessed against during the process of developing the housing and Employment land availability assessment. I can't say those words in order. It's terrible healer. We call it in-house, but that's not helpful for you guys Flood risk as we know and with climate change is increasingly important and the environmental agency and others are You know really developing this area of work in terms of how we assess it and also what we look for in terms of Future-proofing development for the future. So, you know when new development comes forward It has to prove that it is not only safe right now from flood risk But it's also safe for the lifetime of that development into the future So it is actually quite high bar that is placed with flood issues Developers would need to show how they would make that safe And we would need to have confidence in any defences that were coming forward being actually delivered It's not just a sort of hope value on whether or not we think defences or other measures might come into place We need to have a high degree of confidence that they are actually going to happen Anna, thank you very much. So we might even get through all of these. So I'm going to answer the question We had a similar question yesterday Apparently you answered the question yesterday around the appointment of economic consultancy sqw who worked on Cambridge Ahead's spear data and strategy spear for those of you who don't know the Cambridge Ahead's economic competitive or independent economic review is one that I can't say properly And by saying you're also using Cambridge econometrics to assess the data but they too Work closely with Cambridge Ahead Will there a review of this data be post-COVID? The whole world of office work by definition houses might change especially per Since spear data was not peer reviewed on what basis do you appoint consultants? Similar issues applied to consultants stand tech appointed on the water cycle They're working with developer urban and civic on water speech. How can this be independent advice? So a lot of things unpack there in terms of the economic data We are aware our economic data was commissioned in a pre-COVID world We understand that you know things have changed dramatically We you know even now it's impossible to say exactly what will happen And everything any of us could actually make a view on that We will be doing further work with with our economic debt And there's absolutely no doubt about that And we have to work with what we have at the moment what the available data is at the moment In terms of I think this is around a conflict of interest I think you know we are a public organization We're a public body we go through very strict rigorous procurement And legislation and you know in terms of plan making We have an examination at the end of it too So it's kind of double robust really and you know we ask our all of our consultants To provide us with any conflict of interest they might have And so we can understand and manage that So you know I don't feel like that we have any issues with that at all And you know most of the really good consultants work on you know Huge numbers of projects and have to manage that on a regular basis So you know it's something that's quite you know It's quite normal within the industry And you know we have to have independent advice That's the bottom line you know it's unacceptable But that's not to have that And in terms of Can I just add on the on the water cycle study Because we know that that's such a big issue We're also having that independently reviewed by another independent academic reviewer So that's another level of check if you like on that particular study Because we know that that's very very key for us to get right Yeah and I suppose you know they're within Within a specific industry of specialism or skill set There's only a certain number of experts And there's certainly only a certain number of experts Who have some local knowledge as well So local knowledge is also really important to us Because have understand local issues So you know you know those criteria are important as well And cool we're running over I think I'll do one more question And then we will definitely get the rest of these up online And also please make sure that you you know You put in questions to you know put in Go and visit the website have a look And see if there's anything there we've missed Please give us your feedback And let me have a quick look Just one more that's been sitting there for a while We should just planning white paper Paul Because I know that's going to be an important one Yeah let's just do that Where is that Planning reform agenda aims to grant Outline planning permission from allocations How will development and management Aims and strategic sites expertise Be brought into the local plan Great okay so I'm going to pass this to John first Probably a difficult question for him to answer I'm sure that one of us will also be able to chip in as well So the white paper at the moment Is just a consultation I think that's important to say And both Cambridge and South Cambridge here Councils will be responding to it alongside A huge amount of other parties and the public and so on So I think it's important to wait and see what happens But we will need to understand What the requirements of the new plan would be Because it would be a very different looking plan To our current local plans If their proposals are taken on what's in the paper at the moment All I can say is we will clearly need to draw in that expertise We have a lot of good knowledge and expertise in house For example on urban design and development management And I think the key change would be We need to draw a lot of that more into the plan making side Than perhaps the development management side But I think it is still early days for us to think about that And we'll be very interested to see what the outcome Of some of that white paper consultation is Yeah absolutely John And it is very premature to be even thinking about that But as I said at the beginning we are You know we'll be responding to that And you know it may well be handy Let us know what you think If you're interested in seeing what the views of the council Are you'll be able to find them Probably by the end of October Once we release that information But maybe we could even run a couple of sessions On you know on discussing some of that And it's wider implications But everything that we've said today I think we've still got seven questions left But we will pick them up on our website And we'll get them answered for you You can go there I think you'll see in the slide there that Joe's put up I would say thank you so much for coming along And all of your questions I mean it's been great to have such a level of interest really And you know we've had a really really good turn out The last two days for these two sessions And some really really good questions Some really thoughtful questions And I hope that we've on some way to answering some of those Please also feedback on the format Of how we've done this this time Well we are slightly limited with physical contact now So this is the way that We are going to be trying to do things But maybe a little bit more regularly And a little bit more focused And let us know if you're doing that good format And I'd like to thank everybody on the panel here Today who's contributed And they're getting used to being able to do this And have their faces on the screen And I wish you all a fantastic Tuesday And a brilliant rest of your week everybody Thanks everybody Take care Bye bye

Bemidji State University has come up with a new strategic plan designed to push the campus forward for the next five years. Lakeland News reporter Cheryl Moore sat down with BSU's president to discuss the thought process of the goal sheet. Strategic planning for 2018 through 2023 at Bemidji State University actually started last February. Officials held six community listening sessions throughout the year to figure out what exactly needed work. In addition to those community listening sessions, we held campus listening sessions in town hall meetings and gathered feedback and input from our campus community, faculty, staff, and students. About that process is we identified some themes that we would move forward with. We numbered them one through five but that didn't mean that number one was more important than number two or three or four or five. There are five priority areas in the strategic plan. Build university capacity through distinguishing themes of place. Increase engagement with American Indian communities to become a destination university. Increase student engagement in campus life. Strengthen BSU's academic identity by infusing its shared fundamental values into all academic programs. And create a university culture in which diversity is embraced and all people are safe, welcome, and validated. The plan has been aligned with Minnesota State Systems. We've identified the first year really as the first three semesters and so we have have specific activities that will be starting in year one as we call it. The BSU strategic plan has been in the work since last year. That's because the previous strategic plan was due to expire in 2017. Now all the points are equal but one of the main goals of this plan is creating a more diverse campus. We're really looking to attract more diverse populations of students and faculty and staff here to the Bemidji area and as you know it's very critical not only to have the support here on the campus community but also within the greater Bemidji community. One administrator will be over each of the five priorities. Dr. Hinsrude says the ultimate goal is to create a stronger campus. The reason that you engage in strategic planning is to make the institution stronger and to really set a course or a direction for the institution. You come in and you analyze what you might be able to do differently to improve the institution and to really focus on the success of our students. Reporting in Bemidji, Srahmar, Lakeland News. The implementation of this strategic plan began on January 1st. If you enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland PBS.

We have forty-four thousand temples in the government's hands. There are just eleven thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine temples in Tamil Nadu alone, which have no prayers being performed. They are saying these twelve thousand temples will die in the next few years. The government has submitted in the High Court that twelve hundred deities have been stolen. Officially, it just simply amounts to apartheid, if you ask me. That a certain community cannot keep their own places of worship. This is the soul of the community. They can only be done with tremendous involvement and devotion. Hello and welcome to this very special episode of Frankly Speaking. And tonight, my guest is the one and only Sadguruji. Sadguruji, Namaskaram. Many people have written in to me wanting to hear from you. We had a regular interaction during the Covid period, during the lockdown. Right now, the country seems to be going through turmoil. At least it appears so when you open the newspapers and look at news channels every morning. But in the middle of all of this, you've raised a very important issue, Sadguruji. And that is the issue that binds Indians together, that binds the majority of Indian citizens together, which is the issue of Indian temples. Spirituality, religion, faith have played a very important role in every Indian's mind. And when you say that there are just eleven thousand nine hundred and ninety nine temples in Tamil Nadu alone, which have no prayers being performed, it's clearly something that worries people, not just in India, but even Indians living abroad. I want to ask you, are you serious about these numbers, Sadguruji? These numbers are not my numbers. The HR and C Ministry has submitted this in the Madras High Court. So there have been various kinds of numbers flying around, but now they have submitted in the Madras High Court that this is a fact. And the other facts also about thirty-four thousand temples has only one person who is there to take care of the entire temple, from puja to cleaning, to security, management, everything is his one person. And I happened to be, you know, this was in Karnataka. I was in Karnataka Andhra Pradesh border in the Lepakshi temple recently, because this is connected to our forefathers. I had been there over fifty years ago, which was a vibrant temple. Built by, during the Krishnadevaraya's era, fantastic stone monument, all right? And it was a vibrant living temple. Now when I went there, hardly there's anybody, only one man. I asked this one pujari, how much do they pay you? He says thirty-two thousand rupees. I said, not bad per month. He said, no per annum. For a year, they pay him thirty-two thousand rupees. What kind of management, what kind of service, what kind of atmosphere is that man able to create? So like this it is going on everywhere. First of all, see temple is a subjective affair. Unless somebody feels strongly in their heart, it cannot be done as an employment. You can't run temple with an employee, you need passion, you need devotion for that. And there was a time in this country when kings mainly built these temples. Many of them held the deity as the king, and king himself is the servant of the deity. This is how they established the kingdoms. So that is the level of devotion that was there behind this. Without that subjectivity, a temple is just a stone, all right? And that's what they're making it to be. I'm telling you, if somebody had demolished these temples, people would have built it back because that's how they would feel. Now it is being slowly suffocated and nobody notices what's happening. So if this doesn't take shape, now you said all this turmoil in the country, now do I have to raise this issue? Well, this issue is being raised because there is an election in Tamil Nadu. I have raised not just the temple issue, I raised five issues, one about Kaveri, one about the condition of our education in Tamil Nadu. And another is about bringing investments, another is about training the youth of Tamil Nadu. And temple also is one of the issues. Well, this has got a certain level of attention and rest of the things, we will slowly bring it into thing because I firmly believe that in a democratic country, before the election, every citizen of this country, if they consider themselves residents, they must clearly articulate what are the few things that must happen in their country or in their state. Now they don't say anything. After the election is over, then you protest, you cry, you make comments. This is irresponsible citizenry. I'm telling all the Tamil people, this is the time in the next two months, don't go by my five point, you tell what are the five things that you want in this state, what are the five things that must happen in this state. Everybody must articulate. Now political parties must know this is what the people want and they must make their manifestos based on that. Satguruji, Satguruji, allow me to come in, allow me to come in and ask you. You've been in the state for many, many decades. Why raise the issue now? You say and you're saying this upfront that this is because elections are around the corner. What about some people who always look at these issues through a political prism and will say that Satguruji is supporting one side of the spectrum simply because the AIA DMK, late leader Jai Lalita and now the BJP are on one side and the DMK which is an atheist party is on the other side and therefore you're putting pressure on the atheist party, the DMK. How would you respond to that criticism? See, whether you're a theist or an atheist is your personal choice, all right? I am also not a daily temple going person, but temple is not only about a certain religion. Temple is about art, temple is about history, temple is about culture. It is the soul of this community in many ways. But we have been noticing, we have been taking action about this, our volunteers have been trying to maintain many temples but in 2020 the government presented, you know, in the Madras High Court that these statistics that I'm saying that, you know, 11,999 temples, no puja happening because there is no revenue, 34,000 temples, there's only one person and 37,000 temples, less than 10,000 revenue. So all these they're saying these 12,000 temples will die in the next few years. That's what they're saying, all right, literally. So they've committed in the High Court. So it is not that these facts are made up by somebody, this is not a social media, you know, like sensationalism. This is a reality that we are facing. I'm telling you, if we go like this, in another hundred years, except a few major temples, all of them will be extinct. Already it is happening, stones are being taken away. Government has submitted in the High Court that 1,200 deities have been stolen officially. This is an official statement by the government to the High Court of Madras that 1,200 deities have been stolen, they're gone missing. And so many people are saying, some police officers have written books saying that thousands of deities have been stolen but replaced by fake deities in the last 25 years. We don't know about that which is fake, which is real, but we know there is a dilapidation happening all over the place. And I must tell you this, we have 44,000 temples in the government's hands. And we have over half a million acres of land in these temples and we have 2.33 crore square feet of built area. With this, we are getting a revenue of 128 crores. How's that? For example, the SGPC, the Gurdwara committee has 85 Gurdwaras in their hand. Their budget is over 1,000 crores for 44,000 temples with 87% of the population which belongs to the community. You get 128 crore revenue. Is that it? I mean, this is great management. So are you saying this pilferage that is happening when governments manage temples? Is that pilferage? Is that lack of attention? Is it really, in a sense, everything is Ram Bharose? See, essentially, as I said earlier, somebody who has no feeling for the temple is managing it. As you said, somebody is atheist. If you're an atheist, what's your business with the temple, I'm saying? If you're an atheist or a theist, that's not the point. You have no strong feeling for the deity, then you will not keep it well. This is not a business. This is the soul of the community. This is something that... this is the subjectivity of human beings. This can only be done with tremendous involvement and devotion. You can't run it just like an affair. Do you find it surprising, Sadguruji, the fact that our constitution lays so much emphasis on the word secular? And secular in the constitution means that governments do not have to participate in anything that has anything to do with any religion. Yet, 75 years after independence, we are sitting and talking about governments managing temples, virtually owning these temples. Isn't this irony of the highest order? See, if you read the fundamental rights that are given to every Indian citizen in the constitution, and if you look at this HR and the CE laws, it's absolutely ridiculous. It just simply amounts to apartheid, if you ask me, that a certain community cannot keep their own places of worship. So what they are saying is, many people's argument is, oh, if you give it to these people, will they manage better? Maybe they will do worse. So essentially what you're saying is, in eighty-seven percent of the population, you can't find a handful of people who have the necessary competence and integrity to manage the temples. Government has to manage the temples for us. Then if you don't have integrity and responsibility to manage what matters to you so much, it is best the government manages our children, it is best the government manages our family, maybe we are not responsible at all. Ridiculous. For all these years, Sadhguruji, the fact is that all other religions, whether it is the Sikhs, whether it is the Muslims or the Christians, they have private bodies managing their places of worship. It is only the Hindus and their temples, their places of worship that have government interference. Do you see this as a design because, you know, this started in the British era. Do you think this divide and rule policy is something that's continued with governments right up until now? See, definitely by design, but whose design? You said British era, well, Her Majesty's service did not do this. In eighteen-seventeen, the first Madras regulation was passed by East India Company, a corporate. What was their business with the temple? You think out of devotion they took it over because there was mismanagement? No, just wealth. Their idea of a temple is land, gold, diamonds, wealth. Everything that they can transport, they transported. What they cannot transport is here. I am not interested in the wealth of the temple. This is the subjectivity of the largest community in the country. Now, this whole legacy is like this. In eighteen-seventeen, the first Madras regulation happened. In eighteen-forty, there was a directive that you must release the temples back. You know why? Because the Christian missionaries protested that how can Christian men manage pagan temples? It's a disgrace. So give it back to them. Because anyway the gold was taken, after that what is our business, they gave it back in eighteen-forty. In eighteen-forty-five, they handed back most of the temples, but by then, in many small temples, managements were destroyed, so they were left just like that. Whoever couldn't take it over, they were doing it. And then in eighteen-sixty-three, they again brought back the religious endowments act. Because then they saw it is not just about gold and wealth, but there was also land. So they came back again. And then they saw by nineteen-twenty-five, temples were becoming the hubs of organizing freedom movements. So they brought back Madras religious and charitable endowments act in nineteen-twenty-five. And again there was opposition and it was converted not to Madras religious, but it became Hindu. Only the Hindus were targeted. That is because the minorities strongly protested, they released them and only the Hindu temples were held. And later on in nineteen-fifty-one, Hindu religious and charitable endowment act was passed, which was a serious draconian law and that was struck down both by Madras High Court and Supreme Court. And then they came up with another compromise. Tamil Nadu religious and charitable endowment act was passed in nineteen-fifty-nine during the Kamaraj era. So it's got nothing to do with eighties' belief and nothing to do with the present two parties which are either in power or, you know, weighing for power. Nothing to do with any of them. It is way beyond that. It is just apathy which has left it just like that. It's time to fix it. I want to ask you, Sadguruji, just recently there was a controversy regarding five crores from the Guruvayur temple donation funds which were given for COVID relief and the government, the left government in Kerala had allowed that, but the High Court in Kerala struck this decision down. Now I want to ask you, on the one hand you have the left government in Kerala doing what it wants with the donations that come to these temples. And on the other hand we have an ordinance that is being proposed in Uttar Pradesh where all temples, instead of being given back to Hindus to run them themselves, even in Uttar Pradesh, we are, you know, at the moment talking about an ordinance which could bring temples under the control of the government. Do you think on one issue control over temples, political parties from the far left to the far right are on the same page? See that is why the initial question that you asked is this, are we taking sides in terms of political parties? Is this against an atheist belief versus AI, DMK and BJP? No. I am saying all of them are doing the same thing. Whether it's AI, DMK or BJP or any other party, everybody when they are in power they are doing the same thing. So I am saying why cannot we run these temples? The community should run because this is a fundamental right and you thinking unless government runs the temples, it will not be run well is simply because you must understand the previous management broke down when the country was in occupation. And whoever was working there became the managers and slowly like owners. So there was lot of mismanagement but temples were a vibrant places of this culture. People, especially in Tamil Nadu, we call many of our towns temple towns because the core of the town is the temple. Because of the temple, there is a town. It's not the other way around. There was a town and then they built a temple. It's not like that. Only because of the temple there is a town and the amount of work that's been done is absolutely incredible both in terms of architecture, in terms of sculpture, art, engineering. There is no such thing anywhere in the world. That kind of stuff is there. But we are just letting it languish because without people's involvement this is not going to happen. Temple is not a monument to be preserved by ASI as it is being done in many places. If you leave it to the people, they will manage it in a vibrant way. Why Gurudwara's or an example right now, how they're being run and the amount of food they provide to the people, the langars that are going on and in any disaster or whatever happens, how they reach out and do work for their people, much, much more can be done by temples because if you just look at this half a million acres of land, anywhere in Tamil Nadu, the normal rent per one acre of land is approximately minimum level is ten thousand. Just imagine what is the budget that is there for the temples. With that kind of budget, you can make it a very vibrant place. You can take care of pandemics, disasters, whatever it happens in that region they will attend to it. Above all, because they're connected with the community, they can attend to it in a very effective way using the money effectively, unlike government that it has to go through a filter of a whole system. By the time it comes down to the ground, what comes down is a few drops most of the time. Sadguruji, you know, Sanjeev Sanyal in his book has written every temple had charitable endowments, including property that was given and these were the hallmark of places where dance, art, trade, even, you know, general community living really came alive. I want to ask you a party like the BJP which made its political debut or its political muscle flexing on the basis of the Ram temple movement and finally gets a court order and you know is in the process of building a Bhavya Ram Mandir. Uttar Pradesh is planning to bring in an ordinance in Uttarakhand already has brought in 51 temples under government control and in Kashi is opposing any such development or making of a Bhavya temple in Kashi itself. To what do you put this kind of obstinacy despite the fact that some members of parliament have brought in private members bills? It still hasn't become an issue within the BJP which is supposed to be a champion party of the Hindutva. See, allowing a certain amount of margin for this, political parties have their own compulsions. Variety of compulsions of their own, I don't want to get into that. All I am saying after 74 years, before the 75th freedom independence day happens, let in the center and in the states, because largely many of these are state laws, that's why I am focusing on Tamil Nadu, they must come in. How to, you know, hand over the temples to the community? You know, it need not be just done in one shot and let it collapse. It can be done properly, at least appoint a commission. Maybe a couple of Supreme Court judges can sit on it and see how it can be done. When everybody else can manage their affairs, why is it that one community, which is the majority community, cannot manage? So people will say caste, this, that, well, there are solutions for all that. First of all, show the intent. Whatever your political compulsions are, you have to do your politics, I agree with you. But this is an express concern after 75 years of pre-India, if the freedom to practice one's religion the way they want doesn't exist, what kind of freedom is that? Satguruji, you're talking about bringing in former justices of the Supreme Court in a commission. So how do you think a solution is going to come out of a commission having former judges? No, no, I'm talking about a commission with judges, not for them to take the decision, for them to evolve a process of devolution. The decision of whether it should come to the community or not doesn't arise, that we must decide in the elections. This is why I'm pitching it up now. If the people of the community should stand up and say that if you do not hand over the temples to community, we're not going to vote for you. This must be clear to the political parties, whoever they may be. I said Supreme Court judges so that they interpret the law properly. I don't want this to go to the court because if you go to the court as you said, one judgment will come this way, another will come that way based on the intricacies of law. No, I want a legislation. It is important the legislation happens because the democratically elected government means they must respond to the needs of the people and the emotions of the people. This has to happen by legislation, not by court ruling, not that Supreme Court judges should take a call on this. They must just evolve the process. Satguruji, you know, I want to ask you, Stephen Knapp, a western Vedic scholar and author of Crimes Against India and the need to protect its ancient Vedic tradition had said, government officials have taken control of Hindu temples because they smell money in them. They recognize the indifference of Hindus. They are aware of the unlimited patience and tolerance of the Hindus. Many Hindus are sitting and watching the demise of their culture. Do you think Hindus are indifferent and that is why governments do this to us? See, somewhere, if I have to elaborate on this, we have been raised, generally this entire culture has been raised. As a... this is controversial, but let me tell you, as a godless culture. We are not a culture which we believed. There's one power up there and he manages everything from there. There's one man sitting up there and he manages everything. Here we are always told your life is your karma. The way you do it is the way it happens. Right things happen, wrong things happen, it's your business. But you can empower yourself with your spirituality. The religious processes, the rituals, the devotion, all these things empower you to create your life the way you want. But the way... when you say life is your karma, we are saying your life is your making, 100%. So this is a very different kind of culture and I'm saying this is a culture which is ancient, but will be the only culture relevant for the future, believe me. Because the young people in this world, everywhere in the world, irrespective of... irrespective of geography, culture, race, religion, everywhere in the world, young people in the world want to take charge of their lives. They don't want life to be managed by heaven. So that was never so in this culture. We always told you your life is your karma. But this karma business which is the most dynamic way to handle your life, unfortunately, a certain amount of apathy and particularly invasions, you must understand innovation is not just a word. It is a... such a brutalization of generations of people that you lose your survival. Simple survival becomes your mode. You don't want to raise your head anywhere. You don't want to talk about anything. This has happened to India in a big way. For generations of people in the last 400 to 500 years, we have understood one thing, the wisdom in the Hindu communities. If you raise your head, your head will go away. To put your head down and walk. So that culture has made us extremely submissive, extremely passive. But that is going away now. The new generation which is born in free India is not thinking on those terms. They want to take their life into their hands. So when people... when youth want to take their life into their hands, the only relevant structure of how life should be handled is the way this land has espoused. Because you can... you can believe something. You can disbelieve something. You can worship them something, not worship something. You can worship everything and still you're a Hindu because essentially you believe your life is your business. If you're... and you're a seeker, you always want to know. Because you clearly recognize your ignorance. You clearly identified we do not know too much of this creation. We have to search through our life. Everywhere else it's clearly stated everything from A to Z, everything is written down and that's it. Everything we ever wish to know is all written down and that's it. This is a culture which is always of questioning, always of debate. Even when the so-called divine entities came, all they got was freaky questions, hundreds of questions. They never got around to give us a commandment. Well, very well said, Sadhguruji. It's always a pleasure talking with you because there are certain truths that we can realize only when we look into the mirror and it is almost like the mirror when we speak to you, the mirror speaking back to us on what needs to be done, what we are seeing, whatever is wrong and what we need to do so that the reflection in the mirror becomes better. First thing is we must free Tamil Nadu temples. Absolutely, absolutely. Namaskaram. Thank you for joining me.

Family Theatre presents Arlene Dahl and Wendell Corey. Future network in cooperation with Family Theatre brings you Wendell Corey with Ted DeCorsia and Bill Johnstone in Railroad and Churchyard. To introduce the drama, your hostess Arlene Dahl. Thank you, Jean. There are many things that go into the making of a great writer. His ability at characterization, the dramatic impact of his narrative style and above all, his ability to create a story of lasting universal meaning. All of these attributes and more went into the writings of Bjornstern Bjornsson. As a chief novelist, the leading poet and one of the greatest dramatists of Norway, it is little wonder that Bjornsson received the Nobel Prize for Literature. It is also little wonder that we are pleased tonight to bring you his railroad and churchyard. And our narrator for this evening, Mr. Wendell Corey. It was a wonderful thing, the friendship between Knut Akra and Lars Holmstern. Everyone in the village said so. Almost like father and son, they said. Even though small, twinkle-eyed Knut was but little older than big, serious Lars. And it all came about because Knut Akra, like his father and grandfather before him, had devoted all his life to the welfare of the village. Yes, the village would not have been half the place that it was if it were not for Knut. Why, anyone would tell you. Knut Akra? Why, we never would have had the farms we do if it hadn't been for Knut. He started an agricultural school for us to learn in. Our children can bless Knut Akra for their education. Did he who founded the library and started our school? Children? More than children got their schooling from him. How about the many nights he spent teaching older folk who were backward in their learning? Look at Lars Holmstern over there. Everything he knows, he'll learn from Knut. Yes, it was a wonderful thing, the friendship between Knut Akra and Lars Holmstern. Everyone in the village said so. And why you wished me to go with you to the village this day, Knut? Could I not merely wish the pleasure of your company, Lars? On some other day perhaps, but today the Board of Supervisors is meeting. Oh, is it really, Lars? Even if you were not chairman, you would be aware of that, you old faker. I do believe that Board of Supervisors means more to you than anything else in this world. So I repeat my question. Why do you wish me to journey to the village with you on a meeting day? Well, Lars, you are going to become a member of the Board of Supervisors. I? I am going to... Yes, Lars, you! But the Board is the most important organization in the village. Its members must be men of good judgment, sound reason. The welfare of everyone living here depends upon their decisions. Of course, Lars. That is why the man of soundest reason and good judgment has been elected as chairman, namely me. But seriously, Lars, do you think I would even have suggested your name if I did not have the greatest faith in your ability? I know you would not. You are pride in the Board. So it is settled. You shall attend your first meeting this afternoon. Yes, it was a wonderful thing, this friendship between Newdakr and Lars Hochstag. Everyone in the village said so. One day the Board of Supervisors convened to consider a certain important proposal. Gentlemen, I am sorry to interrupt your serious discussion over the relative merits of Sven's and Johansson's hops in the making of homemade beer. But we have here a petition from our good neighbor, the bailiff, which proposes that the village grain magazine be sold and the proceeds used to establish a small savings bank. However, I think he overlooks the fact that the grain magazine has served us well for many years, ever since the time long ago that it was given to the village as a gift by my grandfather. Oh, gentlemen, I fear that the bailiff, while a worthy and estimable gentleman, is not very felicitous in his proposal to this Board. Well, there is the proposition. Now we must vote on it. Lars Hochstag, do you vote to deny this petition? No. No, I wish to agree with the bailiff. He agrees? Well, what do you do? Very well, Lars. Do you wish to make a statement in support of your position? Yes, I do. I cannot see that it matters if the proposal came from the bailiff or not, nor whether the magazine building was a gift or not. The grain magazine has outlived its purpose. It now costs the village money to maintain it, whereas a properly run savings bank would return a handsome profit. I cast my vote in favor of the bailiff's proposal. Very well, Lars. In favor, one vote. In favor, two votes. In favor, two votes. In favor, three votes. In favor, three votes. Lars, what happened to you today? Nothing happened to me, Noot. Nothing? To vote against me as you did. I was not voting against you. I was voting for the village. Then you believe that I did not have the best interests of our people at heart? Since you ask it, Noot, I believe you were more influenced by family pride than by what was best for our people. You? You can say that? After the advantages my decisions have brought to you, the welfare of your farm, your children's education. They are tremendous advantages indeed, Noot. And I know that all you have done has come from the goodness of your heart. And yet you dream of even greater future advantages. But that is not enough. You talk like a fool. No, Noot. There is a practical side to dreams also. They must be paid for. And the taxes of this village have grown so heavy they are becoming unbearable. Because of your selfish desire to satisfy your own dreams, you are driving us into bankruptcy. And you, Lars, you to whom I have taught so much, I presume a practical man like you could do better as chairman of the board. Yes, Noot. Yes, I believe I could. Very well then. Take the honour. I shall resign. I am able to live without it. After all, there are harder things to lose. It was a terrible thing, the enmity between Newdakr and Lars Hogstead. Everyone in the village said so. No longer were they seen together, each went his own separate ways, or the other had never existed. Yes, it was a terrible thing. Everyone in the village said so. During the course of the next several years, Lars' path led him straight and fast of the road to success. But as for Newdakr, well, his friends did their best to aid in healing his hurt. Noot, we've missed you on the board of supervisors. There is something lacking without an Akra on the board, your grandfather, your father. Then you. I do not have to explain all this, Noot. Simply, we all wish you back with us again. All of you, my friend? Well, perhaps. No, thank you, just the same. I am really too busy with my agricultural college to devote any time to the board. And so each man went his separate way, Lars bringing prosperity to the pocketbooks of the villages, Noot bringing prosperity to their minds and souls. And it was still a terrible thing that this coldness existed between them. Then one day there was a wedding, a wedding of the two young people who had been Noot's first pupils in his school, afterwards at the home of the bride's parents, there was much dancing and merry-making. And in one corner of the room, stern and door, stood Lars Hodgstein. And in the opposite corner, quiet, the twinkle gone from his eye, stood Noot Akra. Please, your attention here. I have a matter of grave importance to present to you. Very grave importance. You know what has happened? Well, we have run out of toasts. Run out of toasts? Oh, Sven. Yeah, but it is true. And look, we have toasted the bride and groom, their fathers and mothers, their aunts and cousins and grandparents. Well, there just isn't anyone left to toast. Think of the tragedy. All that good wine left to drink, and no one to drink too. It is a tragedy indeed, Sven, but I think I can come to your rescue. Oh, you knew that? You really have a solution? You have an excuse for me to drink more wine? Excuse? You're not the Sven I've always known if you need some excuse to drink. But I do, in all seriousness, have another toast to propose. We have one toast to honor. Today is indeed a joyous one, not only for the two who have been wedded, but for all of us. Our village is prospered. Our savings earn us pleasing dividends. We drive on new wide roads. And all these things have come about because of one man. And so, ladies and gentlemen, I propose a toast to the chairman of the Board of Supervisors, Lars Hochstedt. Yes, yes. You're a man, Newt. A wonderful toast, Newt. Hold on, hold on there. I wish to be heard also. Lars Hochstedt. Does he mean trouble? He can't make trouble now. Let me through, please. Let me through. Our good neighbor, Newt Akram, has seen fit to propose a toast to me for some benefits that have accrued to the village. I am sorry to say I cannot accept his toast. No, I cannot accept such a toast. Because there is one here who deserves it much more than I. The man who gave me my education. The man to whom I am indebted for all that I know. Therefore, I should like to propose a toast to the man whom I, as well as every other member, should like to welcome back to the Board of Supervisors. May I propose a toast then to Newt Akram, member of the Board. Yes, Lars. Yes, I should be proud to accept such a toast. Now it was a strange and unnatural thing, the arm truce between Newt Akram and Lars Hochstedt. Everyone in the village said so. It is unnatural, they said, for these two former friends to have made those toasts at the wedding to sit side by side at Board meetings and yet never utter a single word to each other. Yes, it was a strange and unnatural thing. Then one day Lars called a special meeting of the Board of Supervisors. Gentlemen, this special meeting has been called at the request of several members who seem to feel that the state of emergency exists in our village. While your chairman does not totally agree with this attitude, never the less... It does not matter if you agree or not, Lars. You cannot deny that Versteiner's lost his home and farm through foreclosure. Nor did Johann said realize not one penny from his harvest. The money went to satisfy creditors. We all face ruin and disaster and you alone are responsible, Lars Hochstedt, you and your speculations. You forget that the money to run a village must be obtained from somewhere, either through taxes or from investments made through our savings bank. Investments, indeed. There's precious little investments about money lost in real estate projects where never a house was built. Or in the purchase of securities that the day are not even listed on the exchange. Your bank is still solvent, gentlemen. Your savings are still secure. Savings? What savings? We know that the entire village followed the example set by your bank. We, too, own land without improvements. Securities that cannot find a buyer at any price. We shall lose everything. Yes. What if I tell you there is no need for you to lose anything? That there is a solution for all your problems? A solution, Lars? What kind of solution? Yes, Lars. What is it? What kind of miracle do you propose to bring us? It is no miracle I propose to bring, gentlemen. It is a railroad. Lars explained his meaning. The railroad company was going to build a line through their county. Two alternate routes had been proposed, one directly through the valley in which the village lay, the other through a parallel valley a few miles distant. Lars' solution was to allow the railroad to come directly through the village, passing through the real estate development, and by selling this land to the railroad, they would recover their original investment and make a handsome profit. Very well, gentlemen. Here is the proposition. It is suggested that we allow the railroad to come directly through our village. Now, we must vote on this proposition. Nutatra, how do you wish to vote? I cast my vote directly against the railroad, Lars. Against the railroad? Very well. One vote against. Do you wish to make any statement in support of your position? Yes. Yes, I do. I shall not speak of the noise the railroad will bring. No, the dirt and soot our children will have to breathe instead of clean, fresh mountain air. I will merely ask you to look at this map of our county. A glance will show you that all the benefits of a railroad can be ours, and it passes through the adjoining valley by stations for our use at these two points. Now, I should like to call your attention to the fact that in order for the proposed railroad to run through the real estate development, it must pass directly through this area. And this area, gentlemen, happens to be the old church graveyard. The graveyard? Are you certain, Newt? Look for yourselves, gentlemen. Newt is right. How can we disturb that graveyard? It would be a sacrilege of sorts. My father and grandfather are buried there. And so are mine, Sven, and those of most of us here. But those men are dead, and of the past. We live now in the present. This is no time for sentiment. Save our pocketbooks through the railroad or we lose all. I shall count the vote. Newt, Acre? Against. One vote. Against. One vote. Sven? I say four. One vote. Four. One vote. Four. Two vote. Four. Two votes. Four. Three votes. And so the proposition carried, and within a short time the work on the railroad began. At first the villagers were jubilant, but as the work progressed, as the shiny rails marched down the valley toward the village, passing close to many of their homes and bore straight as an arrow, through the heart of the old church graveyard, the villagers' excitement died. And replacing it came a sober uneasiness, an increasing feeling of uneasiness and guilt. Now, one night Lars was in bed unable to sleep, listening to the work engines passing back and forth on the rails had just been laid in front of his house. He could hear them belching smoke and flame from their iron stacks, could see their large lights cutting through the night like some great, deeming, evil eyes. They look as if they might have been sent by the devil himself, don't they, Lars? Who said that? Who was that talking just now? Listen to that noise, Lars, sitting in your ears and the smoke can soot, Lars. Not even the brightest stars can be seen through that shroud of black smoke that rises into the sky, that covers your house and fills your lungs. Who are you? Where are you hiding? Answer me, where? Tomorrow, Lars, the rails reached the churchyard. The work of disturbing the graves will begin. I wonder how your father and grandfather will feel about that, Lars? Perhaps they're standing together somewhere this very night, looking down upon you and wondering... Stop that, I say! It's hot. Hot in here. I must be feverish. Hearing voices. Feverish. It's so hot. So the house was on fire. Yes, hot on fire. Lars, wake up now! Wake up! The sparks from the engine have set the house on fire. Here, to the window quickly, before you burn to death in the flames. It was the very next day that Lars swathed in the bandages called an emergency meeting of the Board of Supervisors. Gentlemen, I have called this meeting for two purposes. First, to report that because of last night's difficulties, I now realize that it is too dangerous to construct a railroad through the village. I have therefore asked the road to re-route it through the adjacent valley. Secondly, because I have failed to provide the solution for your difficulties, difficulties that arose through my own errors of judgment and which were seen long ago by the man who rescued me, I hereby tender you my resignation as chairman of the Board. Well, Lars, you have spoken bravely and well and while it might be a good deal like locking the barn after the horse has gone, we have no choice but to accept your offer. Hold on there, Sven, hold on. That horse you're talking about is a pretty valuable one. Let us not forget that he served us loyally and well before his trade. New roads, a saving spank and one that is still fundamentally sound. That's quite a record for any horse, even if at times he more resembled a stubborn old mule. As for the loss of the railroad, well, it has preserved the churchyard and the final resting place of our fathers and grandfathers. And at least we know that we can sit in our homes like human beings instead of trying to impersonate a roast pig, as did our good neighbor Lars last night. True, we are now faced with financial problems. But I've yet to see one that couldn't be licked by good, honest, hard work. The answers will now be found on your farms where you belong, not dabbling in real estate and securities. And if you fear that such work will result in strong backs and weak minds, well, I know a pretty good agricultural school you can go to and exercise those little gray cells. No. No, as far as I am concerned, I see no reason to accept Lars Hochstadt's resignation. I reject. And I? I reject you too. Yes, and so do I. I reject you too. Thank you, gentlemen. Thank you. I should be happy to remain as chairman, but only on one condition, that a sensible man like no doctor shares the position with me as co-chairman. Well, Lord, what do you say? What can I say, Lars? If the village is willing to trust a couple of stubborn old mules to harness, perhaps we can still show them how to pull a plow. There was no question about it, of course. By unanimous acclamation, Newt Akra and Lars Hochstadt were made co-chairmen for the board of supervisors. And after the meeting, the village was treated to a sight it had not seen for a long time. Newt helped Lars into the Akra carriage, and the two men drove away together. And as they did so, Sven, looking after them, expressed the sentiment of awe. Yeah, it is a wonderful thing that friendship between Newt Akra and Lars Hochstadt. Wonderful for them, and for us. Yes, it's a wonderful thing, their friendship. Everyone in the village says so. This is Arlene Dahl again. I think if anyone were to ask us what we wanted most in life, we would probably all answer happiness. Many of us ignore the fact that God is the embodiment of happiness. A path open to him for everyone is prayer. Prayer that acknowledges that we are not alone in facing the problems of this life, that even in the midst of sorrow we can find comfort and happiness in our dependence upon him. That is why we urge you to pray. Pray is a family to bring all within your home true happiness. And that is why we remind you each week that the family that prays together stays together. More things are brought by prayer than this world dreams of. From Hollywood Family Theatre has brought you Wendell Corrie as the narrator and Arlene Dahl as hostess in Railroad and Churchyard with Bill Johnstone and Ted DeCorsio. Others in our cast were Tim Graham, Jim Nussar, Ralph Moody and Virginia Eiler. This adaptation of the Norwegian classic was written by Sydney Marshall with music composed and conducted by Harry Zimmerman and was directed for Family Theatre by Jaime Del Valle.

Hi, I'm Cindy. I'm a curator at the Barnes Foundation, and today we are upstairs in the Bunnell-DeViv room. But instead of focusing on this amazing, really significant painting by Matisse, we're actually going to turn our attention to the wall on the right, to this tapestry designed by Picasso that is often overshadowed in this room. But this work is actually part of this much larger conversation going on here, and especially at this time in the 1930s, about mural decoration, which has its roots in the kind of decorative painting that Matisse was doing with the Bunnell-DeViv. So, let's look more closely at this work. Now Picasso was commissioned to design this tapestry in 1934 by a woman named Marie Coutole, who was a modern art entrepreneur. She started a fashion business in Paris. She had a modern art gallery that held the first exhibition of Alexander Calder's mobiles. She was an incredibly innovative and interesting businesswoman in the arts. She had an interior decoration firm, and she also decided to single-handedly revive the artisan craft of tapestry in France by commissioning really important modern avant-garde artists to design these works. So one of the first people that she turned to was Picasso. And so what Picasso did was design a model for a tapestry. This model is called a cartoon, and then this model was brought to the weavers to translate to weave into a tapestry. So what you're seeing here is essentially a collaboration. The design is by Picasso, but it was woven by these weavers in central France, which I will get to later. Now the design that he chose, these two figures with this woman leaning on a chair and facing this other woman, is very much related to all the other work he was doing at this time, sculptures, drawings, paintings, that were of his lover, Marie Thérèse. So this work is part of a much larger kind of multimedia investigation of this woman as his muse and model. But in terms of technique, Picasso did something really interesting, while so he's thinking of this design for a mural decoration. And what he decides to do is go back to an earlier practice of his Cubist work called Papier Collet, which is essentially paper collage in which he would include strips of wallpaper in his work. Now this technique is something he did before World War I, like around 1912 to 14, and then he just virtually abandoned it for the next 20 years until Coutoli came along and commissioned him to design this tapestry. So what Picasso did was use strips, use pieces of wallpaper that imitated other materials to create a large scale cartoon for this mural decoration that was to be woven. So these strips of wallpaper imitated materials like wicker, like furnishing fabrics, I mean here you can see these stripes like upholstery, and this kind of wallpaper pattern here and here, and even imitation wood for this frame that is around this design. The resulting tapestry is a really clever chain of material translation, meaning it is a woven textile that replicates paper that is imitating other materials like fabric or like wicker. Wicker is essentially woven plant material, and the weavers did something very interesting when they were translating Picasso's design. You see right here, we can get really close, that this is an area where the paper in Picasso's cartoon would have been torn, and what the weavers did was interpret this with silk thread, so it becomes this torn kind of damaged edge, becomes a luxury sumptuous kind of surface. And this kind of transformation of this cheap material, this imitative wallpaper into this wool and silk luxury object was pretty incredible because basically what was going on was that he's having this kind of radical bohemian technique being translated into an object of a very high status and of much more permanence than cut and pasted paper. So the weavers who did this incredible work were a couple. You can see the initials down here AD stands for Atelier de l'Arbre. There was a husband and wife team who were located in central France in a town called Obuson, and Obuson was very near where Marie Coutoli was born and where she spent her early childhood. She didn't move to Paris until she was about 16 or so. So when Marie Coutoli launched this kind of tapestry reliable business back in her home region, she launched it in the 1930s right when the depression had hit. So her business was also a way of reinvesting in her home community and putting these weavers back to work. Obuson had been a renowned center of weaving since the 15th century. And I'm going to show you over here where they wove Picasso's own signature into the work. So you can see this is woven into the work, this collaborative process of the artist and the weaver. Now tapestry is a pretty fragile medium in a way. It's very light sensitive. So what happens is that when it's displayed for a long period of time and not taken down to rest, the colors do fade. And I just want you to notice here that there used to be a lot of green in this tapestry that you don't see anymore so much. And so you have to imagine these colors when they were a little bit more vibrant and fresh. So there was green here. There's this yellow that's a little faded, this beautiful lemon yellow. If you scroll up, you see all of these little bits of green that when you look at, and here too, when you look at the work today, it's definitely not as vibrant and you don't see it as much. But it's still quite a testament to the virtuosity and skill of these weavers. So this tapestry was first exhibited in 1936 in New York in Beaniew Gallery. And this is where Barnes acquired it. And Helena Rubenstein also acquired a copy of this tapestry. And another version of this tapestry was acquired by Nelson Rockefeller. So this was an incredibly successful work. And Picasso would go on to design more tapestries with Coutoli and Barnes in installing this work across from another Coutoli tapestry. And with the Matisse, Bernal DeVieve was very much tying all of this work back to an idea of decorative mural art that was really all about making art part of your daily life and making art part of your well-being in your environment, your interior surroundings. So that's it for today's Barnes Takeout. Join us again next week and have a great day.

Max Thomas, CEO, The Cyber Guardian
Max Thomas, CEO of The Cyber Guardian, on the need to protect children online both inside and outside of the home environment, and his presence at the ITU Cybersecurity Pavilion at ITU Telecom World 2013 this November (http://world2013.itu.int/#itu_2013)

Well, the CyberGuardian TCG, the CyberGuardian is obviously a very long name, so we refer to it as TCG, started out really just trying to develop modern technology to deal with the threats to children on the internet. A lot of the early development actually started through being a father myself and seeing what had actually gone on in the internet space, what my sons were able to access that they weren't actually mature enough to access. So I set about trying to find technology or develop technology that could address that in a kind of a modern way so that we weren't doing client side downloads where you could put it on a computer in a home. It needed to be smarter. It needed to go on to tablets and smartphones. So that's where we really started was to really try and develop something that could protect children or a technical tool. Obviously, education is important, but a technical tool that could actually help parents protect their kids. Well, I think, first of all, I really liked the format. I was involved last year, as you probably know in Dubai as well, doing a child online protection workshop. And I kind of felt that we kind of missed the audience a little bit. Everyone's busy. It's such a wonderful event. There's lots of things to go to. So I think what ITU has done this year with creating a cyber security pavilion gives people a central point of contact, which they can go to once or they can go back to a number of times. And for me as a partner, it gives me a presence where I can have some people there that can answer questions at any time of the day, whereas the previous format was a kind of a for me in child online protection, at least, was kind of a one event. Whereas I think the cyber security pavilion will really feel a need basically for people to be able to come and get their questions answered when the time suits them. So that's the reason. Yeah, look, a really good question. And of course, we could have we could have an hour or two hour conversation to get the answer to that one. Really cyber security is a really big subject and child online protection is one section of that. So if we were concentrating on child online protection, my answer would be it's protecting children everywhere outside of the home when they're on the school bus going to school, when they're at school, when they're at the mall, when they're at free Wi-Fi at McDonald's. There's no good having the home computer protected so that they're OK when they're in the home environment, but then they can access really inappropriate material when they're outside of the home, outside of the parents watching, you know, a lot of people say about education that you put the computer in a central part of the home so that you can always check what your kids are doing. Well, you can't check what they're doing when they're out on their smartphone or the tablet. So I think that was the challenge. So it's coming up with a technological solution to be able to protect them everywhere they go, not just when they're at home. Well, we developed technology that sits at the ISP level. So rather than a household having to buy a software package, which they download onto a particular computer in the home or two or three computers in the home that's protected, what we've done is that we've created a technology that sits at ISP level and we can protect the whole home. But really importantly, what we do is we're able to identify the individual user in the home. So therefore a parent can log on to the Internet and not be filtered. They can go into the open Internet and do whatever they want. But when we detect that it's a child because they have their own personal log on, when they log on and it doesn't matter what browser they use and they can use any form, they could use a laptop, a computer, their smartphone, it doesn't matter, we can detect who it is. And once they log on, once we know that it's a child, we can direct them into our healthy Internet environment, which of course takes out all of the normal stuff that we wouldn't want our children to have. So TCG's point of difference is that we can put apps on their mobile devices so that even when they go outside of the home they're protected. But more importantly, in the home, we don't have to filter the whole home. We can actually just protect the children and let the parents have total access to the Internet. So that's kind of really the difference and that's how we help. Okay, so at the Pavilion, I'm going to have a small team there, some of my developers and some of my marketing people. So we'll man the stand. So people can actually come up to us and rather than just talk about what the possibilities are or what the problems are, we're going to be able to demonstrate live the difference, show the system working and show why the system is completely different. And I think the really key thing here, we talk about filtering to try and protect what we want to do is not filter the parents, we only want to protect the children.

As a way of preserving Nigeria's cultural heritage for the coming generation, a non-governmental organization in Atlanta, Georgia, United States has concluded plans to build a museum in Opobo Kingdom River State. The world-class museum will house all that Opobo is known for. Opobo is a kingdom founded by the famous King George in 1870. The force recognized richest man in Nigeria. It is strategically located along the shores of the Atlantic Ocean as one of the main islands in southern Nigeria with many sociocultural activities. The traditional structure of Opobo has 67 walk-henel houses and each is headed by a chief. The groundbreaking ceremony for the museum was held at Opobo Town where it will be cited with low-key events as a resort of the coronavirus pandemic. The founder of the Kaleidoscope Business Project, Atlanta, Georgia, Linda Midozin, who is here ahead in the project, said the essence of the visit is to celebrate Opobo and bring developments to the kingdom. She explained that building the museum will make Opobo a tourist hub in Nigeria. Most importantly, building the museum and also the great potential of the tourism that is actually embedded in Opobo Kingdom. Because that kingdom is really rich in terms of beautiful landscape of that kingdom that is on top. And the waterfront, that can be used for tourist sites, seeing vacations. Midozin also speaks on the ties between India and Nigeria, especially the Opobo Kingdom in terms of culture. And the history between the Opobo Kingdom, the rap are just like poetry, I'm using right now. Most of these rapes are actually produced in India. So India and Opobo have a tie and kind of cultural ties before now that the Opobo Kingdom want to truly exploit by visiting India. On his part, King Jaja of Opobo, Danse and Douglas Jaja express confidence that the museum will place Opobo on the global landscape of tourism. The queen, Prudence Danse and Douglas Jaja explains how women contribute to the tourism potential of the kingdom, especially through tying of rappers. Achieving the area, Alabo Godwin Opobo, who also serves as the palace spokesman, stated that the kingdom has social economic potentials waiting to be explored by investors. We hope that this will be the start of a new beginning and also an opportunity to open up Opobo to the world. The construction of the museum in Opobo will be funded with proceeds from the 150 years of Opobo Celebration fundraising.

Hello, I am Mick and I am here in the beautiful landscape of Valentejo in south of Portugal to introduce you a holistic framework for monitoring ecosystem restoration. We created this to give camps a way of measuring their impact and seeing changes in the ecosystems they are restoring. Ecosystem restoration is not a small project, so this framework includes various protocols that should be really easy and affordable for you to do. We know that each ecosystem is unique, so you can choose the indicators that help you monitor the progress of your projects in your specific sites. In this series, we will demonstrate how you can do each of the ecological tests included in our framework. We hope this exercise helps you understand what is and what isn't working to bring back ecosystem function, as well as spread knowledge on effective restoration techniques. This way, together, we can share stories of diversity, abundance and hope with the world.

Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of condo insider condo insider is a show for people who live and work in condominiums. And we hope we try to bring you timely issues that affect your quality of life in condominiums and I've started this series now about meet your candidates. And so I have with me as my guest today, Ikaika Hase and he's a candidate for council city council district six. And he'll be running in this this year's election. And I wanted people to meet him and discuss with him because you know it's really important to have people in government who, you know represent our issues and so I wanted to make sure that everybody out here, you know who lives in condo land gets to meet their candidates, and we're going to be showing his website. So if you want to and I really urge you to contact him, get in touch with him invite him to your condominium for coffee hours, and more questions and I'm going to ask him today. You know because he might be your council member. And you want to be the position where you know if you're concerned about something you can pick up the phone and say hey, Ikaika, you know I remember you when you were campaigning. And I have this concern and I want you to help us. Welcome that. Thank you chain. Thank you for joining me kaka. Yeah, thank you. Tell us about your background. Well, I live in clean valley. I was born on the winter side of my family is originally from the big island. And in fact max if the slides are available I can. There's some photos there to provide a little bit of illustration. Not the slides are not available no problem. Anyways, I'm my background is kind of a mix of different things but always have been very engaged in in our community since I was. I was a kid, literally since high school, I was active in local, you know, local affairs. My day, my day to day work is around climate and decarbonization working on a project, developing a project that pulls carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to make a carbon neutral jet fuel with the goal of decarbonizing aviation for Hawaii, because it's our single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. And, you know, the thing that that keeps me focused. Okay, the slides are ready if you want you can put them up max thank you. Yeah, sure, let's do it. So yeah that's, that's me, my name, and my Twitter handle and Instagram handle. It's my family. And what I was just going to say is that the thing that keeps me motivated and kind of going every day is thinking about the world in which our children and all future generations are going to be living you know the. We don't live in such difficult and sort of insecure times, you know just I was a few minutes ago reading Twitter, which I probably shouldn't do very often, but they're talking about how, and right now in Ukraine in Ukraine, Putin is attacking a nuclear power plant. And that just, you know, it just sounds crazy, you know, and so there's so many things that we're dealing with right now both international globally, but also here at home, you know we have the rising costs of living. It's a million dollar median costs for a house. We have, you know, certainly COVID, whether we have things like the Red Hill water issue. There's a lot of concerns that local people have and I think a general feeling that Hawaii really isn't working well for local people. And I am a believer, actually that government, and you're welcome to advance the next slide max I'm not sure what the next slide is but hopefully anyways these are these are some of the neighbors in your neighborhood. I'm a firm believer that government can play a positive role in in terms of making things in terms of making life just a little bit easier for local people. That's that I think should be that the thing which drives everyone in public office it should be the way that we think about government. And, and I, what I mean is that I think we should take a leadership role. And so for things like this. Like the, you know, the fire sprinkler issue, you know, if we're going to mandate these things, we should certainly be helping to finance these changes these, these what are really unfunded mandates. And I want to just shout out to Carol, and also to Heidi for their leadership, you know, in the permitted interaction group, and for thinking through these issues with our community. I really value their leadership on these, these on these things. And my kind of, you know, quick take, you know, and certainly someone who's not, I'm not in a chair, you know, Carol's in the chair and I'm glad that she's there. My, my quick take is that is to follow her lead, and to support, you know, slowing down the process, make it more easy for for condos to convert. And to make the necessary upgrades, if they truly are necessary. And, you know, I think the city should be on the side of the condos and of the associations in terms of making it possible for them to get this done. The thing about too is that it's not just about the, you know, we're talking about condo land, Jane. Yeah, and I know that the audience for this show is going to be condo dwellers and professionals real estate. But I think that there's a broader, there's a broader theme that we need to pull out of this, which is that, you know, we're requiring a bunch of changes, you know, we're requiring, for instance, upgrades for folks living in more rural parts to upgrade their, you know, sewer systems and septic and all that kind of stuff. And, you know, just on the other side of the island, there's a fish pond Hawaiian fish pond. That's hundreds of years old and it's like 800 years old, but it's unable to produce food because upstream of it there are, there's the danger of, you know, waste going into the into the water system. And, and it's only because we can't finance the upgrades of those upland upstream, you know, systems that that we can't produce the food at the fish pond. I think that we need to be in the position in terms of the city and county of, of helping to make those sort of upgrades as well. And we have a broader series of obstacles that we're going to be facing in the next few years, you know, this decade is the decade of the climate transition. And we have to be thinking about what can government do proactively to address all of these hosts of concerns. So, you know, the strategy that we take, I think with the condos should be instructed for how we approach all of our broader public safety and public, you know, issues for our island. And that's what I think about it. We have to think about it as our island. How do we make it better for everybody, including the residents of the of the condominiums. And I'm glad to hear that. And you know, when we, when we put the headlines out for the show, I put down the area for District six is my Kiki downtown I'm not really. And because of reapportionment, you told me that that's all changed. So what area, what, what, what, what area. Are representing with with districts six. Yeah, so the reapportionment commission, I think it was in November that they change the lines. And so right now Council District six runs roughly from Kalihi to to Ward Avenue. And it's cut most of Mckiki out. I wouldn't really say the Mckiki is part of of Council six. But you still have downtown right. So downtown, absolutely downtown Chinatown, very important. You know, kind of the heart and soul culture of our community is comes out of those areas and lots of condoms. Lots of condoms. That's right. And we have Kalihi, you know, where a lot of our industrial work is done. It's a very, it's, I think of Council six is really being the heart of Honolulu. It's, it's the it's this really important region that that really sets the pace for the rest of the state. And you know, I think a lot of people don't realize that the city council, I mean, you, you have, you have a whole lot of influence and control over how life is affected for people who live in condoms. I mean, the city's in charge of rubbish removal and bulky item pickup. And you know, and one of the bones of contention and you'll find this out. You know, if you get elected to the city council, if an issue comes up on real property taxes, the condo people are going to come and and and and start, you know, screaming and yelling about hey, we pay property taxes but we don't get free rubbish pickup. We don't get city services. And you know, that, you know, that's that's something that you're going to have to deal with and you know we've been going round and round with them. And we have gotten some concessions for townhouses, you know, that aren't as large as high rises, you know where the city, you know has come out and the Department of Environmental Services, you know has allowed, maybe two days of rubbish pickup by the city. And three days by the private hall and to me, you know, that's, that's, you know, that's better than having to pay for five days of private rubbish pickup. I mean it does reduce your costs. And so, you know, we are very grateful to people on the city council, you know, for, you know, for cooperating or making sure that that happens with some townhouse projects. And it started with Arnold Morgato years ago, when he lived in Wailuna. And when I found out about hey, I don't know, how come you got rubbish pickup for your, you know, condo community your townhouse community. And you know, the rest of us don't have it. And so he he was very gracious. And he made sure that you know those buildings that you know could get, you know, maybe two days of city services got them. You've been able to get the council members, you know, down the line to agree, you know, to work with the Department of Environmental Services, and its successors, you know, to do that so I hope you want to, I hope you keep that in mind that when you see rubbish with mobile or bulky item pickup, you know, think of condos because I mean, that is a big bone of contention. And like, and, you know, with with condos we're always using emergency services, the police the fireman, the ambulances. And so those are very important, you know, to the to the condo people, and building permits God we every condominium right we're always doing projects, and everybody's grumbling about. And it takes us for so long to get, you know, building permits and, and how come it takes us, you know, a year to get these projects done. And, and, and that's, and that kind of segues into the fire safety ordinance, which requires us to get permits. And right now, we just got a report from the fire department, 360 buildings are, you know, subject to this ordinance. Yeah, about, you know, 50 of them don't have to put in sprinklers, because they're under 10 stories, or they have open exterior doors. And that's considered, you know, safe and so they're they're exempt from putting fire sprinklers in. But they still have to pass a life safety evaluation to show that the building is safe. And you know when you're talking older buildings. It's, and you know, and you look at that matrix that, you know, came out that was developed by the fire department. It's challenging, especially with the older buildings. The problem we have is the pipes are failing. The concrete is spalling, and those are not cheap fixes. And every building, it's not that we're not taking care of the buildings, they're getting old. Right. And so, and now we get hit with fire sprinklers and Marco pool they paid $5.4 million. You know, that's the benchmark we're looking at, but oh my God, you know, and, and, and out of the 200 that we know of that have submitted their LSE, only 16 have gotten passing scores. And to me that's a nightmare. When you think of all of those buildings have to get building permits. And so what's the city going to do they, they don't have enough people. But yet they expect us to comply with these deadlines and Carol has a bill council member coconut has a bill that is moving that is extending those deadlines, mainly because it you know, though, there's one deadline. That's may three of this year, where all of the LSEs have to be completed. And we're so few weeks. Yeah. And we still got 75 to 80 buildings that haven't done it. Right. Right. And so that deadline. There's a bills of 37 be moved to August. Okay, so we're moving and baby steps. So we're moving that one to August. But then, once you finish your out you know the LSE, you have to comply with it you have to do the fixes. Yeah. And now we know that there are at least 200 buildings that have to do the fixes. And even in the best of both of all worlds. I mean, if we had no supply chain problem, if we had enough, you know, labor for contractors which we know they're not because we can't, you know, even get proposals right now to do other work. How are we going to get 200 buildings through the system by 2025 that's the next deadline. All those buildings have to be in compliance by 2025. Right. And, and now you got a war. Right that's going to affect the financial markets and guess what the condos. None of us have money set aside for fire sprinklers or fire alarm system so we have to borrow the money. Yeah, and get and I, and what I did is I think I sent you the Fannie Mae letter lending letter. And now they're telling us that our units are unmarketable, because now we have an LSE which is a regulatory agency report that says, we have a broken building. Right, and we have to fix it, but yet we need to get building permits we need to get money. And you know so, I mean this is so you're walking into a hornet's nest, because I hear from, I hear from council member, from all over the island about what are we going to do can she stop this bill, or can she stop this ordinance and the easy question is no, the ordinance is the ordinance there. Yeah, I mean, but you know so we're going to have to do another bill. And here we are in the almost mid 2022. Right. And we have to get another bill to either suspend or repeal the ordinance. And neither one is going to be very popular, you know, with the fire department. Right. So Jane, I do have some hope and faith that the, you know that the current crop of elected officials, you know, with Tommy, and, and Carol, and, and also the mayor, that they will in the short term because this is all happening in the current calendar year right before I or any other candidate would take office right. And I think that they will figure out a way to address this immediate pressing problem. But you know it strikes me that I was, you know I was just reading the report that came out I think it was on the 16th of February, so just a couple of weeks ago from the pig from the permitted interaction group that council member, that was put together that, you know, these low passing rates it's in fact they're calling it a very low pass rate for certain LSE categories. Right. That, that should, that should frighten us all because what that means is it's more of an indictment, not of, of the buildings, but more of the whole system that we get this whole edifice that we've set up. All of these buildings aren't passing it means that you have to address the whole thing, you know reminds me of one, you know, like my, my kids are in high school and middle school. If everyone in the class is failing, it means the teacher is doing something wrong. That's what it means, you know, and so I think the approach that you're taking and that Carol's taking makes a lot of sense right now. Right. And you know, and so you know, so you what we want to find out from you is, are you going to support, you know, that that type of movement. Sure, sure. I mean, it has to happen right now right so it's, it very well may not be on on my plate but if it doesn't get resolved now then I certainly would. Yeah, you know, when I would take office. Yeah, because there's also a bill and you know we don't think that's going to get resolved this year, that if you're going to have a mandate. It's got to be government funded. You know, I mean, you're talking about condominiums who found out only two years ago that they're going to have to spend millions of dollars to make their building safe. And that's on top of the fact that their buildings are already old. And, you know, the types are failing. The structure is, you know, deteriorating because it's concrete. And that's nobody's fault. It just means that they're old and it's, and it takes money to do the repairs. And in my building, I mean we're, we're on our second small repair, the first small repair was 20 years ago. You know, so it's not like you do it once and it's fixed because concrete, you know, deteriorates over time. And so you do the small repair, and it's only good for maybe 10 or 15 years. And you have to do it again because we're right by the ocean. Yeah, I mean, I think there's a clear public interest in in helping in having the city play the role of a finance partner for this kind of thing. And you know the other issue that I wanted to bring up Jane is the is the situation that the condos are dealing with in terms of the insurance companies. Yes, and I would love to actually spend some time talking story with them because, you know, it's straight it seems to me as so I should tell you, I used to do insurance years ago. My family's businesses is life insurance and financial planning like retirement planning. And I find the insurance world to be really fascinating, because it's all about using, you know, financial vehicles and financial contracts to hopefully make people's lives better. You know, and to address the risk factors that we all live with, you know, whether it's your personal health or, you know, or some kind of, you know, accidental, something rather happening. But the same principle holds fast here that it's in the interest of the insurance companies to help these buildings to address these, whether they would consider to be risk factors. And I would love to sit down and talk with them to see but you know, is there a way for them to, to help finance these these important, the work that they're requiring. Right. Because, you know, right now the insurance companies are raising the premiums for high-rise condominiums. What I'm hearing. And you know, and under the ordinance, you have buildings in Waikiki like the Waipuna, the Waialana, I think it really is also open. They've got open exterior quarters. Right. And so under the ordinance, they don't have to. They're exempt from putting in fire sprinklers, but their insurance is going up. And that just doesn't seem fair. And so if we have to pay higher premiums, you know, to make sure to get over for the next couple of years, so that they reinsurance companies, you know, can, you know, recoup their losses. And normalize their operations then so be it, but you know, there should be a break for the buildings that are exempt from having to, you know, have the fire sprinklers to begin with. They're getting penalized for already being in compliance with the law. You know, so, so, you know, we should be trying to find out, you know, if we can get some kind of, you know, concession from the insurance company, you know, for those, for those buildings. You know, frankly, you know concession would be nice. But what I what I'd like to talk to them about is can we find a creative solution. You know, are there new ideas that can be brought to the table. You know, can can they help to finance this work. And so that means, you know, instead of instead of just playing sort of a punitive role where they're increasing the assessments increasing the, you know, the premiums I should say, for the building owners and for the associations. Is there a way that they can actually help to address the things that they're calling a risk. And to me that's a win win, you know, it helps everyone. It helps everyone and also it addresses one of the one of the, the thing that really bugs me about this, you know, this particular unfunded mandate, which is that, you know, life in Hawaii is so difficult for most people. Right. For most of the dwellers in all of these buildings and most houses, right, where everyone lives on a kind of a very thin margin of sustainability. You know, most people are living paycheck to paycheck. And, you know, I'm, I'm connected with, with, with United here local five the hotel workers union and you know we represent workers at Kaiser etc. And the model that that local five uses is is one job should be enough. And these kinds of issues like these these unfunded mandates are some of the things that make it so that one job is not enough. In fact, for the most for most people in Hawaii, two or three jobs, or what they need in order to get by. And so, you know, we need to we need a radical rethinking, and, and I say that with all the understanding, you know that that sometimes radical ideas can be frightening and they are folks, but frankly if you look around I think that we, we're in a moment right now where we're we actually need those those things we need to rethink the role that government is playing in our community. Right and you know and to add on to that, you know with condominiums were known for the fact that we have two distinct populations, we have the new families, right and can't afford a house yet. So they bought they buy condo. They're the ones who have paycheck to paycheck. And so when they get hit with a high, you know, a higher increase, you know, maintenance fees, or a special assessment. That's a problem. And then we have the other group, a large group of seniors, original owners. They bought 40 years ago they've never moved out. They're senior citizens on fixed incomes. And so it's very difficult for them. They don't have the flexibility, you know, to, to pay for special assessments. And so when when when when they get hit with higher maintenance fees, because you know now we've got to pay for failing pipes, and for spalling and now we have to do increased insurance if you don't have a sprinkler and the fire ordinance says it by safety ordinances you have to put in a sprinkler. There's a lot of money, you know, it's a and this is, it becomes very burdensome to those, those two types of, you know, populations in our condos. Absolutely. You know, so I'm glad I'm really glad that this, that the pig has done its work and that there's legislation moving right now through council. And I think we should all be supporting, you know, that the work that Carol is doing. And, and, and, you know, it's not going to end with with council member Fukunaga because she's term limited. And I'm pretty sure it's going to continue on to 23 so if you get elected can we count on your support in that connection. Absolutely just replace Fukunaga's name with mine and no problem we got it. Okay, I would be happy to carry on her work. Okay, I'm glad on behalf of condo owners in District six and condo residents in District six let me tell you we're very grateful and happy to hear that. Good. I'm glad to hear that. And like I said, you know, I'm going to be writing this article in business management Hawaii, about how condo dwellers condo residents and condo owners should become best friends with their candidates. You know, people will start listening to me and maybe you'll get a shout out, you know, to come for a coffee hour. And I hope that happens because there's a lot of condos in your district. And, and, and, you know, and I know from talking to council member Fukunaga, I mean she's been there a long time, and there's a lot of condo people that just pick up the phone and and call her and she you know her staff is very responsive. You know, so on a whole lot of issues other than the fire safety, fire safety ordinance. And so I hope that that you know the residents in council district six can can, you know, can be assured that they're going to get that level of service. Sure, be happy to and you know coffee is good for a coffee hour. I'm also open for Paul Hannah, if anyone wants to, you know, we can. I'm happy to bring a six back and we can share some good local IPAs or something together. Yeah, there's, but the conversation is really important. Absolutely. And I want to thank you for being part of the conversation today. And unfortunately, we run out of time. And but I'm, I'm, I'm, I want to thank you for being with me and sharing, you know, sharing your thoughts, and I wish you the success in your campaign, and I hope you get to meet a whole lot of, you know, condo residents in your district. I know those people out there. Like I said, you know, you can't just contact information was scrolling on the screen, give them a call and invite them for coffee do Paul Hannah. But you know, get to know your candidates, get to know your candidates because when something goes wrong, you want to be able to pick up the phone is a hey, I got, I, you know, you came to my coffee hour or I met you when you were campaigning and I voted for you.

Hello everyone and welcome to a long overdue episode of Jurassic World Alive! Do you think it was gone? No more Jurassic World Alive? No more dinosaurs on the channel? All it does is play just now, apparently. No, don't be ridiculous. No, we are back! Now, there's a couple of reasons why I have taken a break from recording. The main one being COVID. Yeah, it's kind of not the easiest thing to record with, and I'm still kind of recovering from it. But hey ho, here we are. But, I have not been slacking when it's come to Jurassic World Alive. Oh no, no, no, no, no. Because if we have a look and we look at leaderboards, you'll notice that- Oh, I'm 19 now. I actually went up 34 places, I haven't done anything sweet. Um, so I am now in the top 100 players of the entire game. Can we get it? Double the 4th place in the world is... Yes. So, yeah, that happened. How did that happen, you went ask? Well, um, little thing called pay to win happened. So, is it much of a coincidence that the entire time I've been playing this game, for at least for a long time, I have been in gyrosphere depot and have not moved for like years that has happened. However, the one moment I start, or the one time I start putting real money into the game to buy the newest creatures or the best creatures, well, would you believe I'm number of 100 in the world? Isn't that brilliant? I mean, for paying like £3,000 or something, stupid, stupid, that's gonna happen. Um, I guess what we can quite unequiv- unequivently prove is that this game is 100% pay to win, dear. Um, unfortunately. So we're just gonna quickly just donate a couple of things, we're gonna get blue. There is, um, news through the grapevine of the newest change coming to the game, as well as, you know, that new hybrid that we didn't get yet, I think everyone voted and I think it was the Indominemmies, or at least, it hasn't been proven that we're getting the Indominus Rex and Svalinemmies hybrid, but, I mean, I did a poll on my channel, and what was it like? Oh my god, that is crazy numbers, look at this. So apparently 45,000 people voted, and you had like one, two, three, four, five different choices, and Indominemmies got 73%. That's like 30,000 votes, if not even more than 30,000 votes, which is ludicrous, um, so I don't know, maybe that's just my audience, that's what they wanted, but apparently people have voted for the new hybrid, oh, of course, unfortunately when you click that, you get the horrible goat dying sound, even though the goat's not there. So, what is coming to the game? Well, the news through the grapevine, and I think this is through a game press, um, like, uh, deep dive, down the rabbit hole, hold on, down the rabbit hole, or not really down the rabbit hole, but you know what I mean, um, what they've proven is through like a data mine, that's the one, that's what I'm thinking of, um, that there is going to be big changes to the meta, basically, sometimes they update a couple of things, it doesn't change anything, but this time it, it kind of looks like it's going to be a big change, just realized, yes, there we go, thank you, thank you, yes, thank you, David, um, so, one of the big, one of the creatures that is being used heavily at the moment is the Alberta-Servia, the Alberta source hybrid, you know the thing where it gets revenge, and then it can basically do whatever it wants, does it want to go for two times damage, does it want a priority to do like, I don't know, 6,000 damage, because they've all got max attack, or does it want to distract you, or basically it can, or does it want to break your shield, it could do anything, if it comes in a revenge, it's, it's, it's basically like small brain, you know, you don't need a big brain to play, it's like, ah, there you go, just do whatever, and you'll, you'll basically get a kill from it and you want to switch out, um, however, that Alberta source hybrid seems to be getting a nerf, now we don't know what the nerf is, but it starts changing, I think it's attacks being put down, something like that, we saw that with paratops, paratops' attack got nerfed, I think as well, um, also, I want to say Reth has also, um, is, is a bit buggy, now we know that it's super distraction has changed a million times, um, from its, its, its image not doing its stun, even though it shows stun and all this jazz, but basically, I, it's very rare for you to do this, but you can actually make sure that the Reth's super distraction doesn't go through cloak, so you have Deokeris against Inditoris, you swap out the Deokeris for Reth, so it gets a cloak on the swap out, and then it does its priority cloak, now when you do the Reth and you go for the instant distraction thing, it's supposed to go through cloak, right, well actually it only goes through one, and then with the other one, you're up to 66% chance for you to get through, I know this because I've done it and went, wait, what, how did I not go through that? So apparently it doesn't nerf all cloak, so maybe Lydia wants to fix that, so what we're going to be doing now is the Patrano Curie, um, also we're not done with the updates, because apparently the datamine has shown some other things as well, uh, with flocks, apparently flocks are going to be majorly nerfed, I'm not exactly sure how they're going to do that, they might just put more moves, hit all of them, but flocks are, they're a, oh boy, they're, they're, they're a nuisance, they are a nuisance, but they are in the game and that's how they, they want to be played, anyway, uh, so yeah, we're doing Patrano, Valkyrie, whatever you want to call it, this strategy is the quickest strategy you could probably ever do, uh, with this, so you need two modem rexes, uh, one of them needs to be above 3,000 damage, the other one over 2,800 damage, and I'm kind of okay, that's what I fit into, because I took all the attacks off it, okay, let's go, defeat the boss, in only what should really be, uh, what is it, four turns, yes, um, have we got everything? I think we do, basically the, the great thing is, when you play with a Mortem Rex, don't really even have to, like, concentrate, you just go for, like, the roll, then medium hit, big hit roll, you cycle, that's, that's normally I think what you go for, when it comes to, uh, Mortem Rex. Yes, we'll take a picture, so first tip, you boost everybody's attack, second hit, boosts everybody's attack, and Rex, you're already having loads of attack, oh, kills all the Pteranodons, and then, uh, you have Mortem Rex, which goes for another hit, which boosts even more attack, and the amount of damage that the, the little birdie bird does is ridiculous, it's got like a render, but after having three increased attacks, oh, 20,000, Jesus, I, there's probably a way to beat this in only three turns, probably, um, but I think you need, I think you just need to focus down with, with this one, you need a little bit of a breathe in the middle, and then you just repeat basically the first step, for the fourth two, because everything's had time to cool down, dear, so now we go for the big one, uh, it is such a shame that this apex dinosaur is like, kind of useless, uh, because of it's like, it's like switch out ability, a lot of things will come in, and then do damage to you, it doesn't matter, yeah, you reduce it by 50%, but let's be honest, most things want to swap in, or have a counter as well, so, I don't know, I have yet to see anybody in the top 100, like in PVPs, use the turand on hybrid, probably because they sort of knew from the get go, it wasn't very good, so they haven't been buying the incubators, um, oh, that didn't kill it, oh, I thought it would, oh, this one will though, yes, a devourer from Rexy, doing 18,000 damage, oh, and you know what? Rexy, I use Rexy, and because of the way flocks are, Rexy has two attacks that go and hit all opponents, which is brilliant, one being a priority move, um, and I don't know, I feel like, do I feel like the meta is in a place at the moment where it's good? I guess probably not with the way the, you know, most things are like I'm facing up against are always the same, so probably not the best, oh yes, let's kill it, and then after this, just one more turn and we've done it, not since, Mortem Rex, have we had raids, be so nice to do, oh lord, I don't know why, Mortem Rex is still the only apex creature that has a two round, like refill, and it only has two bars, and I don't know why, why why can't we just have all of them have, or more of them have less than three bars? I just, so I feel like some, one of them has like four bars or something ridiculous, maybe I'm wrong, maybe just feels like it had four bars, probably, probably it feels more like, so that'll kill all of them, and then, oh the T-Rex does have a speed boost, I don't know if it's a speed boost for everyone, I know they had a boost attack for everyone, but if it does, that's really good, because then we're gonna, it's not even gonna do anything, and it's just such a joy, it's such a joy, and it's so nice, but it's completely offset by the fact that this apex is rubbish, so yay, so I'm expecting now, for the meta to completely change from Alberta, it'll be interesting to see what people put in instead of the Alberta Serbia hybrid, and also to see what they, if they choose to stick with flocks, depending on how badly they get nerfed, we do it, yes, and there it is, all the 20,000 down it goes, Bernardo Beak is killed, it does look a bit like Stopteris, isn't it? Well, there you go, the easiest, easiest of all the raids of the Apexers, I'm also five of, oh, five, five freaking DNA off, maxing out the crocodile, and at the moment I could spend 50,000 bucks, oh, 20 I guess isn't so bad, it's the second worst, but hey, oh, it's not the worst, yeah, like, I'll have a look, I'll show you what I'm on, because once I get this crocodile maxed up, I love when sometimes it's like, no, no, no, you just see names, I know people have said, oh, you can go in this setting, I don't have time for that, so yeah, I've decided to boost the crocodiles attack all the way up, because in some circumstances, you don't want to attack first, you just want to go for a bask, get your attack up to something redonkulous, like 9,000 damage, like if you're against paratops, like paratops are swapped in and killed something, send out this crocodile, go for it's like parity, and 33% chance that it will avoid the stun, so meaning 77% chance it won't, you can stun it, you lock it in, you get your attack boost, and like, most of the times you're faster than a paratops, because it's only got 111 speed or something like that, and then just go for the big hit, just go for that big hit man, I'll have a look, what is it, speed up, yeah, 109, they normally max its attack up, give it a little bit of health, very rarely, if ever, will a paratops out speed a crocodile, the only other change that I've made to my team, I guess has been the anchors, now normally I have this maxed up attack, but I've reduced this attack, to give it just enough, to make sure that as long as Alberta survey it doesn't get a crit, Alberta can go for the instant hit with it, and get its attack boost, and also then break its shield, go through armour, and it will still survive, the thing there's a way to actually make sure that I do die, and I think it's to go for the rampage, and then to go for the attack that goes through, but you already have to have your attack boost at that point, but it's interesting actually, that slight difference means you survive with 30 health, and you kill Alberta Serbia, and I think that difference is, it's definitely happened to me once when I've actually killed it, alrighty, here we go, the monster paratops, I mean most of these raids just like, sweet, so this one's, how long now is this, good, what's good about this one, is that it's mainly the same, it sort of states I'm kind of happy for, they were at last too long now, do we dear, out of everything it could have went for, the fact that it went for that one, the weakest, I don't know if that bodes well, but we got a thought, oh look at the thought, oh it actually has his skin, oh brilliant, oh wow, okay so apparently we're gonna kill this one in two, and then for round two we kill it in another two, and then round three, we kill it in one, so it's gonna take five turns, and to do three rounds, okay, okay, reduce the speed, just in case anything did survive, there you go, would have died there, let's do emojis, let's do sleepy blue, yes, so I think last time I made a video, or it was a live stream on Drusted World Alive, I put in two flocks, it was the Tarbaganathas hybrid thing, little compy, as well as Comparaptor, Comparaptor, but I've taken the Tarbaganathas out, just because it felt like if I get two flocks, the chances of something going wrong is incredibly high, like if something has, oh it, like Adilo Kairis actually has things that go through both, or hits all opponents, Paratops as well and Revenge can hit all opponents, Ref has a good priority, they can hit all opponents, and you can't reduce Ref's attack, so you have to, well you'll probably die, the one thing I've seen actually, Comparaptor, I fought against a level 29 Comparaptor, no idea how this person did it, must have got very lucky on the Fuses, but it actually survived a hit from Referentum, like the priority hit, which I was really surprised at, I think I did about 4,500 health, which is more than enough to tank, I think you need, I think Ref does around about 4,000 max, so to do that and then cleanse itself and then hit you, and then you basically dead, I was really surprised, just took me, because I'm so used to doing the same, like opponents, be the same kind of enemies, over and over and over, and the fact that it survived that hit, I was like, this does not compute what just happened, but there we go, this one again is gonna take two, it's nice doing the power keep, because if you do this, then you do, you're always, I mean if I'm playing, you know, if I always do the power jumps, this is quite easy, I don't have to think, it's always first turn, go for that one, second turn, it's one of the heals, and then the final one, just go for the biggest hit, and you did it, yay! Hold on, what kind of sound effects do we get? Oh, I put on here, now Challenger approaches, yeah, there you go, very quiet, but it's there, oh, as well, it's pretty much done it, it's just, it's just time, man, it just takes so long, what good news is actually, that the raid system for order fill, I feel, I'm able to do it quite well, if I'm at a point where nobody's online, and I just do order fill, as long as I'm working on a strategy, most people know what they're doing, they're doing order fill, as long as you, I mean, you can tell if they don't have the dinosaurs, they put in like a T-Rex level 12, you can pretty much just be like, okay, because they're not gonna know what they're doing, or you just leave and then restart, I've been able to do a couple of raids, both Apexes, that way, I think actually, even a paratops this way, I was able to do, so that's good, it does mean that you don't need to have a team that knows exactly what they're doing, they're chatting on Discord, which is great, if you do have that, but also, you know what, it's nice that you can, for the normal pleb, who maybe doesn't know what they don't like, how people are on all the time, it's nice. Oh, he should be dead, that, I mean, does it heal on the counter? It does, I've not, you look at that, I've paid zero attention to this, and yeah, of course it does, but it's definitely dead now, oh, 6,800, even then if it wasn't dead, another 2,000 damage coming through, actually it's only level 25, so, probably like 1,800, is it? Oh, it's 2,000 with the boost, oh yes, and then we go and heal, and finally the last turn, yes, and then what we'll do is some top 100 battles to see just what I'm facing, and of course, lose three times in a row, because that's what you've came here for, you wanna see, you know, learn by my mistakes, scream at the screen, what did we ever do wrong this time? Yes, that's what you've came here for, really, not to see me win, to see me lose, I would go for that biggest hit, and that should be it, get a mutual, and then the door will be able to kill both of those, then a biker coming in from the Gemini Titanium, they might actually need me, oh, saying that, if they got two attack increases, they might do, oh, if that's true, that Thordor is gonna do so much damage, and with a crit, oh, 8,000, maybe it was with two, yeah, well no it wasn't, it wasn't, I was wondering, I was like, two, that, even though it's a lot of damage, that's not two attack increases from a Thordor, oh, sorry, they would be level three, I think 25 is the max you can do this, if it's an apex, you go up to level 30, I think, is that, have you done, yes, I get the kill, it's me, bam, parity, kill parity, I have been using this thing for how long now, and I still have yet to get it maxed up, there has been so many cases where, if I had it maxed up, I would have been able to switch in and kill the opponent, but because I'm not, I'm like, oh, God damn it, oh, I can't wait, one day, one day I'll be able to, oh, oh, brilliant stegoceratops, yay, and finally we get 46, well we've got a long ways to go, we've got a long ways to go, yes, because I cannot get the ingredients for that to save me life, right, is there anything, oh, hold on, let's start a Therizinosaurus, because when I looked at all of those dinosaurs that came in the new update, when I got to test the beta build and everything was maxed up, the Therizinosaurus hybrid that was a legendary seemed pretty good, I'm not gonna lie, it was the only creature that had like a triple hit attack, now what I thought would be a really good idea, because you've got the flock creatures, right, and you get some dinosaurs that can do two hits in a row, three hits in a row, and that will kill a flock in one hit, right, but what I was also thinking, what would be a good downside to that, to counter it, is what if something like the Crocodile that has a passive counter or even Inditorus, which does like the rendering, it did it for each of the hits, so, like, yes, this thing can take out flocks, like that, but if they predict you going for that move, they can swap in like an Ankylos Luxe, which will swap in, get a 50% shield, and also have the armor, and do like three counters to you, I don't know, that just seemed to be a good way for it to go, but anyway, let's do a Nublar Shawl's Battle Shield, okay, here we go, I gotta put my money where my mouth is, am I any good? Ooh, interesting, interesting, so if he has Inditorus, right, because sometimes Inditorus is a good starter, really, and what I wanna do is actually, before I, you know, put all the money into the game, see what my team was, and just compare it, that would be an interesting video, maybe next time we'll do that. I've, and Paritasuchus, it's a good one to start with, just as I say, man, just as I say, I thought that would be the case, so at this point, I feel as though, I could probably risk it trying to stun him, and 50% chance, but he'll go for this, and then we can switch into the Comp Siraptor, right? At least this way, we're gonna bleed him out for a little bit, he's gonna do a massive amount of damage though, like, I have no resistance to rent, I don't think, do I? Oh no, oh thank God I do, oh, Jesus, okay, well we do a little bit of bleed, that's good, now what he's gonna do is his massive attack, now I don't wanna fodder off Imperitasuchus, Imperitasuchus is very good, so we'll give him the double cloak, at this point, Ref isn't guaranteed to get through the cloak, which is interesting, I don't have Ref, but we do have something that, you know, will punish him if he does decide to switch out, which he will do, oh my God, I didn't think he was gonna swap out like that, very interesting, okay, oh, we are resistant to that, but it's not enough when he's got two cloaks on, and Adilakair is very interesting, oh, and do we get, I think we gotta help right now because he swapped out, do we? Yeah we do, oh that's brilliant, okay, okay, so, I, ooh, I was gonna say if I had something that could swap, if I had paratops in after, I could do the rampage and run, but, I'm gonna go for this one, we're just gonna make sure that we don't take any damage from this, because he's gonna heal, he's probably gonna go for his, like the speed boost heal, more than likely, oh, he doesn't, oh, okay, oh, fair enough, fair enough, I suppose, I mean, he's still, oh, he's not reduced, oh, he's not reduced, we need some of the priority, but I don't really have it, so I'm gonna have to do this, oh, we lost, we lost this one, oh no, okay, oh, oh Jesus, maybe I should have went for the playful puns, okay, my bad, I've thrown this one away already, but can I claw it back, that's what you come here to see, right, okay, now, we need to make sure, I think we may be quicker than him if I give myself a 10% speed boost, worst case scenario, yeah, he can do that, he gives himself a massive heal, now he'll lose his speed boost, I feel like he'll still be quicker, right, or will I be quicker, let's see, let's see, what's he gonna do, oh, I'm quicker, so right, unless he's gonna flock, which high chance he probably will, he's losing something, he's losing into Taurus, he probably won't fodder off the Dio here, it's too valuable, way too valuable, ah, it's a Tauber gun, I knew it, I knew it was gonna be something, right, I hope we're definitely killing one, because we're gonna do 8,000 damage, I don't know if there's any way, even with a cloak to avoid that, right, okay, that's one dead, it's not looking good for me this, oh, he's had like the perfect team so far, but like Tauber Ganathas to counter me, he's then gonna use his attack next turn to get one back, and then I think I'm dead after that, I don't think I stand much of a chance, I mean, I think, he doesn't lock me down, and he only does, oh, he does, he doesn't, you know what, he does a lot of damage, oh no, he does lock me down, well, you know what, I don't think it would have made a difference, he would be on this either way, yeah, we lost this one, we lost this one, perfect counter, Goddammit, right, let's see, is there a chance in heck that I can survive? I mean, he's gonna do a lot of damage here, but it's not necessarily a win, or like a kill, two nil down, two nil down, oh, brilliant, okay, oh, you know what, okay, it's not the worst thing in the world, we could be in a worse situation, the only problem is he's got that Dealerchirus, he's got his own, and when two Dealerchiruses come up against each other, it's anyone's game, it's sheer luck, unless you can predict so many turns ahead, so I'm gonna do here, I'm gonna switch to the Crocodile, he's gonna do a big hit, I don't think it goes through armor, which I'm glad for, but we'll see, we'll see, I will get a counter off, I'm immune actually, so it's not bad, it's still pretty bad, but it's not the worst, we do get a counter off, now are we guaranteed a stun, I think we are, yeah, he can't be swap prevented, which means that next turn, he could switch out, he could, but what would he want to swap out to is the question, right, so he could swap out into the Tarbaganathas, he could swap out to, he might even just follow this off, you know, I think he might follow this off, I think he's just gonna go for, oh he doesn't, right, okay, well he wanted the counter, how much damage, oh tooth, oh you hate to see noobs only have max damage and close luxes, yeah, there's literally nothing I could do here, I, yeah, I mean if I went for my max attack, I could have killed him and I was tempted to, but at the same time, like what are the chances, what are the chances, so at this point, I have to swap back into my own dealer, Kairis, now he could swap back into his Ankylosaur luxe at any point and do just a lot of damage, oh man, oh man, okay so I'm quicker because I think I gave myself like one extra, oh, one, two extra speed boosts, so I mean he can go for his biggest hit, so if he's doing that, oh I knew he was I was tempted actually, okay, there's been twice now, I've been a little bit outplayed, just a little bit outplayed, okay, okay, so he's got it for this turn and the next turn, okay, right, so here comes a big hit of 2000 damage and he's still got his invincibility, ah, yay, yay, I'm gonna go for this one, there was a two attacks as well, that was one attack, okay so, no I would have died, I would have died because he would have counted me and yeah, yeah I would have died here, so he's got his shield, oh and now, now comes the instant invincibility for two turns and at that point I think it's game, it's game, oh he played that so well, he played that like annoyingly, he had like something to counter everything that I put in, oh by the way, you've got Deolokyrus, oh sorry you've got the thing, oh well he is Tarbinganathus, oh what's that, Deolokyrus, here's Anglosaur looks, so unfortunately that's just the way it goes sometimes, he's got two turns worth of that, but there's nothing I can do at this point, I may as well, if I swapped out a croc, I'd die with the rampage and run that he's gonna do now and yeah, so that's a bit of a bugger, so next battle shall be won, so Inditorus was a bugger that time, if I have the chance to stick out ref first, I will because it's just, oh yes, I'll do that, so Deolokyrus, what's coming out first? It's a ref, ooh okay, okay, I'll happily take that, like these battles always go a certain way, like I could do that and then I'll go for the heal, he'll go for either his super distraction or he'll go for his biggest hit, I mean really, I want him to go for his biggest distraction, that's what I want him to do, because now he's gonna do a big hit to me and then if it's enough and he gets a crit, which he didn't, he could've swapped in the Alberta Servia and done a crud ton of damage, so at this point, I'm left with two choices, I stay in and I go for either my heal or the biggest hit, oh I've already done the biggest hit, never mind, for some stupid reason, if I stay in and go for a heal, I can at least counter him a little bit but he's already done his super distraction, so at that point, I wanna swap in the Compsor Raptor, if I swap in the Compsor Raptor, I'm pretty sure it's GG against ref anyway, I mean he could swap out at this point, he's still in with a chance to swap out, yeah, in comes the biggest hit, reduce my crit but I don't really need that at this point, all right, okay, so we're gonna cleanse ourself, oh, okay, okay, fair enough, fair enough and now I think he has, he's got a cooldown of three, so he's only done two attacks actually and now he's not quicker, I'm pretty sure right, so he did that normal hit, then he went for super distraction, a big hit, little hit, so at this point, yes, okay, whoo, just wanna make sure I wasn't pulling a stupid on myself though, I was like, oh, I can get an extra one back here, can't it? Right, now we want to get out and what's good about this is actually we could get out and we're swapping into, oh, I don't like it, we're swapping into the, do we follow up? Yeah, go on, I'll do some damage to him, we'll do some damage, I mean, he may even just go for a heal and if he does go for a heal, that's great for me, but I feel like he's gonna go for his revenge, big hit to kill my Comso, but in this case, he killed my Dio, so you know, oh, he got a crit, well, well done, well done, well give me, give me a well done, well done, okay, so at this point, he's dead, he can't swap out because he will die, he could go, oh, he's dead, he might get stunned, oh, he gets locked in, that's it, doesn't matter what he does now, this is pure power, so actually, yeah, oh no, he could survive, I do 7,000 damage and he does, he has 7,000 health, so actually, oh, wait, what? He could have went for his heal and he might have survived, but then again, there's nothing he could do, he would do maybe, I mean, I'm still quicker, so yeah, there's nothing he could do, he was either to try and attack and die or go for a heal and then try and attack next turn and die, so there's nothing he could do, so, oh, I think this may be game now, yeah, yeah, I mean, you're putting in an Ankylosolux against me, I, like, Ankylosolux is probably gonna kill me, oh, look at him, he's done the lead strat, like taking off some attack and putting it on the health, nice, nice, nice, yeah, he knows he's done at this point, why else would he not have went for hostile glow? Oh, he could, should we? Let's just prolong the inevitable years, kill him, we are the... He has asked to do it first, but please, or he could just die from a bleed out, yeah, there you go, so you know what, the only downside with being up here is that every time you lose, you lose 40 cups and every time you win, you win 20 cups, so in order to keep on increasing your cups, you need to win three times for every loss, and when you see just, you know, the opponent you're facing against is a little bit hard, we'll do one more, let's see if we can get back up to where we were. You know what, if I have the chance, I mean, normally they put it into Taurus, it's kind of, oh, that's so nice, I mean, it's probably not gonna be good for him because he's probably gonna force me to swap out, oh, okay, yeah, he was not happy with that, so basically, I don't wanna say it, but I think I've won this one because he's a dinosaur down basically, but you know what, you've unlocked it, maybe not legit, because yeah, you've probably spent bucks and real money to get that, because I don't think there's any way to legit unlock it at the moment, it's only been out for a little period of time, but you know what, you've put in the effort, you've spent money, you've got the Valkyrie, I appreciate it, I appreciate the microtransactions from one to another, you know what I mean, you thought it was gonna be good, but just like me, you were lied to, right, okay, so if we do a counter, which is good, because we do a lot of damage to, oh, I did level 30, level 30, level 30, and at this point, I'm just gonna go for the heal, we get the stun, we'll get a health increase, now it's up to him what he does here, because he's at a point where even if he goes to his priority, I'm gonna break through it, right, and on the counter, so I may as well just go for a huge hit, because he might even swap out, we'll see what happens here, he might just go, oh, he swaps out, interesting, interesting, so he's increased my attack again, oh my God, I do 9,000, oh, oh, 9,300, what am I against, oh, he's dead, I think, is he dead, I'm sorry, we're blurring, there we go, we're back, and oh, the crit as well, oh, it's a level 30, oh, I don't know if that was a guaranteed kill there, oh, that's unfortunate, he's down two dinosaurs, and one of them's Ankylosaur looks now, oh, yeah, he knows, yeah, I think he knows at this point, he knows it's over, he's already going for the cleanse when I haven't even bled him out yet, oh, never worry, there you go, wow, okay, maybe he's in with a shot here, it's possible, I guess I'll just go for my Ankylosaur looks, because at least then I think I, does my counter remove dodge, I think my counter might remove dodge, yes it does, okay, so he's all going for the swap, interesting, okay, is it gonna be Valkyrie, is Valkyrie coming in, so he's lost one, but it does make a difference, because he's probably gonna swap in anyway, right, so I get an invincibility, he doesn't have anything that cancels invincibility, right, oh, he's got his own, oh, of course it comes in with its invincibility, oh, he doesn't even get the stun, I wish he did, because now I'm gonna be hit with a counter, but actually I'm glad he didn't, because now he's gonna take me below half health, and I can go for my instant alert, and get the invincibility, oh, oh it is not going in his favor here, so all I need to do now is, actually, actually, it's pretty tricky now, yeah, maybe I shouldn't have done that, I don't know man, I don't know, hmm, so I've got my invincibility, yeah, he's gonna go for his now, I don't think there's a way for him, okay, there's the stun, very good, very good, I got invincibility for two turns, one more turn, and go for a hostile glow, just in case the invincibility disappears, at least we got a hostile glow, okay, okay, now what's it gonna, is it two attacks? Oh wait, my invincibility's gone, how did that happen? I don't get it, what, he's still got his, he's still got his, you kidding me? Okay, okay, so now we need to, oh I get the crit, come on, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, no, he beat me, he beat me, do it, what? Okay, so we, right, Compso has got this, oh in comes his, wow, okay, okay, interesting, interesting, ooh, well, well, well with that being said, we may as well go for this, he can't swap out, we're gonna do a big chunk of damage to him, maybe even kill him, oh no, he has 20% armor, okay, it's not over just yet, he's probably gonna force me to swap out, he does have a counter, I think, yeah, a robbing wing, I think he gets a shield and he gets a speed boost, but if he hits me, oh, which he has done, oh God, oh, okay, okay, oh, oh, oh, yeah, you said it, it's just like, if he wins, congratulations man, well played, well done, because now it's Anglosolux or Compsoraptor, and he didn't even get the swap in with the Compsoraptor, so I get to cleanse myself, because I do a priority, thank God that I didn't, if I wasn't quicker than him, that was it, game done I think, yeah, it's level 28, it survives a rev, it survives a rev, super distraction, oh my God, so yeah, he's gonna go for the playful pounds, now then he will be quicker, and then I think he's won actually, at this point, I think so, yeah, I think he has won now, there's 164, oh no, I'm won quicker, but, but, he's got his priority, so yeah, well played, he was a dino down and he won, oh well done, I shouldn't have lost that, I played that wrong, oh we only lost 20, okay, so he must be like, top 50 player or something, I don't know, that's what I'm gonna say, the fact they only lost 20 there, that's amazing, that is amazing, I'm sure like I could have probably made some decisions if I'm, you know, knowing what he had, but it is the game, that is the way it is, I have to give it to him, I really do, cause that was for even attempting a Pteranodon Valkyrie, well played, well played, so we are quicker, which is good, oh, he even increased his speed by one just to, you know, beat this match up, but unfortunately, I put two in, so I'm still quicker, okay, okay, I don't think this is favoritim, no, okay, so I'm still quicker, so I'll just go for the regular, I think he's probably, yeah, he's gonna go for the priority, which is fine, and then he's probably gonna go for his regular heal, and I think at that point I'm still in the lead for like winning this, I think having that, you know, being able to go first, I guarantee of going first, really helps you healing, look at that, ah, that damage, and then he's just gonna go for regular heal, I think, which is fine, okay, then I'm gonna go for, ooh, ooh, if I can get him down to just a point, I have not got paratroops this whole time, I've never had a chance to swap in something and do a lot of damage, that's a damn shame, so he may as well reduce his attack since he goes first, so at least this thing, he doesn't do much damage to, yes, beautiful, now we can go for our big hit, I mean, we could probably predict him going for this one, and having our heal, in fact, I probably should have done that, yeah, probably should have done that, don't know why I didn't, that was stupid, oh no, whoopsies, because then he's, yeah, he's won now, okay, well that was a terrible idea, oh, I guess we just, oh, he's swapping out, oh yes, this actually worked out our favor, you know, maybe it was a good job I didn't have the paratroops, maybe it was, okay, so now he's gonna do a big hit, we can, oh, having that 7,200, oh no, it was level 30, if it was level 30, oh, I might be in with a better shot, so what we'll do, we'll just go for this heal, then giant hit, and I mean, there's a chance that he wouldn't get the stun there, I mean, he definitely gets locked in, I think, yes, okay, here it is, here's the big hit, he has to go for a heal now, and even then he'd still die next turn, and oh, there it is, you're loved to see it, you're loved to see it, punished, it's like I predicted, I was like, I know he's gonna swap, I know he's gonna try and finish me, all right, okay, so that being said, I guess we'll just go for Comsiraptor, I mean, what's he gonna do, he's gonna go for his biggest hit, because he's gonna get the revenge, right? So that I'd rather do this, go for the playful pounce, and then like a big hit with the priority, I don't know if it's a really good matchup, it probably isn't, it depends, am I quicker, I am quicker than him, right? Yeah, oh, this is sweet actually, okay, okay, right, hmm, that means that next turn I can actually do my rampage and run, and still I would speed him, it depends, actually, huh, maybe not, that's what he does here, if he goes for his regular hit, I'm definitely survived, okay, okay, okay, now he has his priority heal here, I'm pretty sure, if I swap out, I swap into Rexy, okay, he's quicker, right, I, ooh, ooh, okay, oh, I don't like it, that wasn't that great, I was hoping I'd be quicker, yeah, I knew that was coming, I knew it was coming, knew it, okay, okay, okay, yeah, we'll go for that, I'll go for that, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, and then I'll go for the priority, and then we'll swap back in to come to raptor, really, okay, interesting, right, right, I mean, it's not good for me, oh, I prevented him from swapping out, which is brilliant, okay, so out of that, we've got full health on our crocodile again, that's good, he's probably gonna go for a massive hit, not expecting me to swap back in, he'll just swap in, swap in all the time in it, because he's gonna go for the biggest hit, he has to, yeah, I mean, he doesn't have to, we could have went for a smaller one, but look at it, it's beautiful, right, let's see, let's see, cleanse that, and then he's probably just gonna go for his regular heal here, I think, ah, if only I had more health, if I had more health, this wouldn't be an issue, because now we're back at the same situation we were before, where he's gonna do his regular hit, I just can't whittle him down enough, damn, yeah, I mean I could do this hit, we've got to, we've got to do it, go on then do your little, oh, well done, oh man, if only went for the biggest hit, okay, okay, we're getting in a situation where he's now predicting what I'm gonna do, this is the mind game we're gonna play, because I'm on like a losing spiral, but if I can try to get him to predict my downward spiral, I can predict his prediction and start spiraling up, oh, really? Okay, fair enough, fair enough, I suppose. Right, now, now, now, now, what do you think he's gonna do? Do you think? Okay, okay, let's see, let's see, is he predicting? Is he gonna go for his smallest hit, or is he gonna go for a heal? I think he's gonna go for his smallest hit here, I hope he does, oh no, he went for his biggest hit, right. Very strange, okay, oh, I think maybe I'm slowly getting him a little lower every time, yes I am, it is working, it is working, now he's gonna go for his regular heal here, right, this is it, this is how we predict him, yes, I think I've weaseled my way out, so now, I can go for, I mean, he's probably gonna want to go for his little hit, right, right, oh no, he didn't, oh, that is interesting, I thought, oh, I thought he was gonna go for his little hit, no, you weren't supposed to do that, dammit, oh damn, oh now it's not good at all, oh no, I'm quicker, sweet, should we get out, or do we do this one, oh, if I get a crit, I got 30% chance, oh, with a crit, yes, yes, oh, you put the work in, the game treats you right, and then we, oh, he's not happy, he's like, really, really, and now we got Rexy, now we got Rexy, what are you gonna do, cause Rexy, I get a big hit, oh, okay, I guess I'll go for this one, predicting your super distraction, haha, nice, you're done, son, unless you've got something else I don't know about, which could probably come in and kill me, no, you, unless you've also got the Alberta hybrid, I think I'm good, right, now we're gonna do a bunch of damage, and, yeah, I mean, wow, I didn't realize it lasted for so long actually, yeah, we'll go for this, go for this one, do a lot of damage, and then he should go for his biggest hit here, I hope he does, he doesn't have to, oh, he didn't, whoa, whoa, okay, okay, actually, yeah, that's game I think, because now he's got Comsiraptor, he can't swap out, yeah, okay, oh, oh my God, oh, now you have to admit that was lucky, I mean, if I hadn't got the crit there, he had it in the bag, there's nothing I could do, yeah, you have to admit that like, there was nothing I could do there, I just had to try and predict him, predicting what I was gonna do, and eventually I got lucky with a 30% crit, but there we go, oh my God, finally, well, if you've enjoyed this video, guys, leave a like and a tell next time, I'll see you cuties later, oh, bye-bye.

The attack levels of us being victims is soaring out of control, the balance. I've processed the numbers, ran them through many algorithms, and I've come to the conclusion that there needs to be a different solution. Andrew, we got to talk about this. For sure, we do, man. It's a hard thing to talk about, but let's do it. And actually, it's like sort of a never-ending story. We talked about this in LA. We're talking about it again in New York, but with, I guess, different incidents to sort of highlight it. An 89-year-old woman in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, was attacked as she was going for a nightly walk in broad daylight, though it was still light outside, and she was kind of slapped around and then set on fire. Police say this horrible assault happened 10 days ago. Now, we spoke to a witness who said she was just walking by when she saw her elderly neighbor assaulted, and she wonders who would do such a thing and why. Lucky enough, thank God she was able to escape it with very minor injuries. She was able to put out the fire that was set on her back with kerosene oil, but basically, it sparked a anti-Asian racism rally. And it's the first of its kind. I've never seen anything like it before. Kudos to the rally and kudos to the rally organizers. Somebody just had to do something because a lot of Asians get picked on. And I wrote a crazy Instagram post about this like a few months ago. It's still relevant to this day. It's been relevant for 10 years. It's been relevant for 20 years. It's been relevant for 100 years. Asians in the Western society, more often than not, maybe get picked on and getting picked on looks different in different settings. But right now, the ones that are being highlighted are more visceral, more physical, more like terrible incidents, more extreme versions. Yeah, this is clearly not the first time and it probably won't be the last time. I mean, I wish I could say that to be honest. I wish I could say, yo, no other Asian grandmother is going to get picked on for no reason. And I'm just like, it might happen again. It's messed up because it's not even make it's not even a news story. It's a new story to us, but it's not even making the national news. Basically, what I see right now at this moment, August 2020, I see more people reaching their threshold of being sick of it. Yeah, for the longest time, I don't think you could talk to any intelligent Asian American and have them deny that this is the truth. We are talking about getting Alfred in physical direct confrontations constantly in Western society. Yeah, there's nobody would ever debate you on the existence of this dynamic. Because I find me someone would debate this. I mean, there are so many personal stories that everybody has about this, but they just process it differently. And I think that the rallies are really important because some people would be like, oh, well, what's a rally going to do? Blah, blah, blah. Well, first of all, a rally sort of is a signal to the rest of society that yes, we are willing to self organize around essentially this cause. People really tend to rally when they're super when they're sick of something. It's been happening. It's been happening. It's been happening. So by the way, I don't think rallying is the only thing we need to do, but I do think it is important because if you look at the history of America and Western society, specifically, you know, democracies like America, protests and rallies have been effective in changing or having at least a substantial impact on the narrative of the country. I mean, this is coming off the heels of Black Lives Matter protests, you know? So of course, I think that the idea of protesting is kind of like, you know, everybody knows it can do something now. So yeah, you should use it and for so long, Asians wanted to keep it on the inside and be like, no, we can handle this or like, nah, it happens, but it's not that bad or like, oh, this thing happened. I don't want to say it, but now they're just like, you know what? I just got to get out on the streets. Yeah, for sure. For sure. And I think for the longest time, Asians have just been viewed as like this ultra quiet, ultra docile. Keep your head down, want to be invisible group. And I just think that like you said, people who are very consumed with playing the game to come up and have a certain game plan, speaking out on behalf of the people who are the most vulnerable and susceptible to getting picked on every single day, every single situation, it's like could throw off their game plan. Is that selfish? It is right? Be honest, I would say so. I know some people have been getting called out lately. You guys, we keep it real and we try to keep it pretty balanced. It's for people who make millions of dollars off Asian representation to not speak out on behalf of the vulnerable people is selfish. Not evil, but it's it's self centered because you're worried about throwing a wrench in your game plan that you're running to get your goals. Yeah. And it is true that in Asian society, even traditionally or else the way our story played out in Western societies, caring about the lower end is not something that people need to take into consideration. Let's just say the powerful people up top, they're a little bit more okay and being like, hey, you're standing up for your people. Okay, I respect that. I'm not going to like think that that's a bad thing anymore. Right. And obviously because so many high profile African Americans that don't need to speak out for themselves and their extended family because they're all taking care of, they're still doing it on behalf of everybody else. I agree that a lot of Asian celebs and a lot of Asian like media representation people play it too safe. Mm hmm. They play it safe to the point where it's almost like overly conservative. Everybody's trying to run a certain philosophy, but you're right. I actually think society gives Asians more leeway than Asians even think to speak out on behalf of the people who are more broken and people who are getting more attacked. I think a lot of people were looking at Asians for so long and being kind of like, well, why don't you guys speak up more? Like if you're mad about this stuff, why don't you go do something? So kudos to China Mac kudos to everybody else who you know was pushing that rally because I do think that those rallies are something that is like needed. I'm not it's one piece of the puzzle exactly, but it's actually a new piece that probably wouldn't have been introduced into the mix had some people not stood up and been like, yo, let's do this. Do I think that everybody takes the anti-Asian racism rallies fully seriously from other groups? No, I don't think so. Yeah, black people have been rallying for decades and Asians. If we're just kind of starting to rally for ourselves for our own very, you know, micro issues and we're just starting that now. It is going to take some time for other people to take it seriously to everybody involved that's getting the ball rolling at least on that specific puzzle piece. But there's a lot of other puzzle pieces and those are the other puzzle pieces we need to discuss. So what are the other puzzle pieces? For example, basically the other puzzle pieces are that Asians probably need to be more politically active and vote more. Listen, I know that especially this election. For example, you might not like the options that you have on the table, but at least you got to vote locally. And that's something that I would really push for people to do is that if you can vote locally, that's actually going to affect the police more. It's going to affect everything more your own represented that that affects your life is quicker and more directly than even voting for the president. So basically, yeah, we do have to become more politically active. We do have to show up for rallies and we do have to have like more leadership because it's just this weird situation because it's true, Andrew, if it's only like people with money or with a lot of education or a lot of shrewdness are able to protect themselves, who's going to protect the people who don't have money and don't have connections or don't fully know how to move or maybe there's just stuck in one place. A lot of the educated Asians that got to know how they don't always bring that thinking down to less powerful Asians and help organize them. Yeah, there's not a necessarily sharing of knowledge resources or come down. Once a lot of Asians make it, they move out and by that, I mean physically out of the neighborhood or the hood or the enclave and then also they're just like disconnected. They're like, nah, man, like I just hope you guys can come up like me, you know, and I understand that thinking too. But like you said earlier, it's a little it's selfish and it's and how because how the poor Asians or the lower income Asians get treated still affects how the richer, more powerful Asians get treated too. Yeah, it's all connected. Yeah, right, right, right. But I think a lot of people are more looking maybe at their own micro individual situation in the middle, but they're not thinking about the macro macro is really difficult to take care of that would never happen to my grandma. She wouldn't be out by herself. That won't happen to me. My kid because my kid will know what to do or my kid won't be in that neighborhood or whatever. Yeah, you know, and this is like that kind of thing. It's like, yeah, that's like, no, I do think on the flip side, specifically Cantonese people. Yeah, I'm going to say it. The grandmother was Cantonese grandmother's Cantonese, the guy who got picked on with the cans was Cantonese. Not every incident has been Cantonese, but a very, very sizable amount probably the over half the largest slice that is the largest single group. Yeah, of people that have experienced like, I guess like the harshest physical racism from Corona virus. And if you guys know anything about the Cantonese American experience, statistically, anecdotally, historically, factually, a lot of Cantonese people tend to live in the hood. It happens in Seattle, Beacon Hill. Not everybody on Beacon Hill is poor. I mean, there's definitely poor people. There's definitely some people with a lot of money, but everybody just lives on Beacon Hill. Yeah. In New York City Asians are the poorest minority group. A lot of people don't know that in New York City and that means a lot of them are Chinese, right? Not all of them are Cantonese, but a lot of them are Chinese because it is true. So Chinese happen to be the ones who get picked on a lot and bullied Rob, whatever her. All Asians get picked on by the way, but probably you would say Chinese would get picked on the most. And sometimes even on Instagram, I always see people comment, yo, man, why are Chinese like OD get there? They're like the dweebiest. Other Asians say that other Chinese other Asian group say that. Yeah. So other Asian cultures tend to have one of two things, either a stronger deeper warrior culture built into the everyday society or more recent war, which also can contribute to everybody's getting well that hardens them and get some ready for Chinese. Chinese both traditionally do not have very deep warrior culture. It's more of a scholar imperial court culture farmer, kind of like anti-warrior to be honest. They don't their wars were like a long time ago. So people are not really like still amped up from that time like on guard. So so that's just why just to give you guys some like deeper insight just so to but I guess like is the answer that we'd be more warrior like and we just all of a sudden flip the switch, you know, do the Drake flip the switch and then boom, we're like warriors. It doesn't work like that. People should do what they need to do to protect their family. So if you're in a situation where you like need to up your warrior points three, four notches quickly by all means just do it, but do it safely and do it in a smart way. But basically guys, I think my biggest thing and the biggest takeaway I want you guys to get from this video is that we have to confront the pros and cons of the game plan that we're running as Asians in the macro, but specifically more as Chinese people because China we can't let's not lie Andrew. Not all Asians have the same philosophies. I would say there's an overarching sort of like philosophy, but there's a lot of differences within the silos underneath the umbrella and I would say that Chinese probably being the largest group in America. I mean, we're the biggest race in the world. It's a group that's particularly being hated right now by the Western society or global society, whatever. Fairly unfairly, neutrally, whatever. I mean, you know what I mean? I don't even want to get into it. We've got to really examine the upside and the downside of our game plan like we've got to do it. I've been stressing this. You can look at this Instagram post that I made. I'll pop up the Instagram post right here. You know what? Let me just read it. I'm just going to read this because this is Andrew. Let me just read it right now because you know what? I'm just like, I'm just got to this point. I just got to read it. Don't let the flashy high and low events distract from the fact that this has by and large not saying there aren't exceptions always been the way it's been for Asians in the West. We are putting the beta position of the dominant Alpha position in the majority of in real life settings, whether that's in the streets or the Fortune 500 boardroom. It's just amplified or toned down based on the larger trends of the moments, but we can change this first with ourselves then as a community. My whole thing is let's use this moment to reflect on why we generally choose to run this plan. It's pros and cons, which are on full display right now, then make actual changes as a community fractured as we are internally. Clearly, a lot of Asians are not happy with the cons of the keep your head down and work through racism, anything game plan, but there has to be a real plan on what to do real dialogue with your family and friends and people around you. Everyone is going to come up with a different answer for themselves based off capabilities and risk aversion, but I just suggest people take the next real step other than Internet shock and outrage. Listen, everybody, we have to have actual conversations about the plan that we're running. Do we still want to be poodles or doves or do we want to be warriors or what level do we want to be in between and this can be on a community level or an individual level. Obviously, you can speak for yourself. You can kind of choose different levels, but you should have a plan and you can't just go. Oh, I'm 10 out of 10. Dove 10 out of 10. Hock 10 out of 10 warrior 10 out of 10 scholar. Literally guys. It doesn't make sense. Even when you design like a car, you have to make a lot of tradeoffs, you know, between weight and engine size and I mean miles per hour and just all these. I don't want to get into it. I think that there's a lot of different issues that Asians need to use this thinking for, you know, and it can be so many aspects like any aspect that about Asian culture being Asian in the West that, you know, a lot of people are like fed up about or like kind of upset about. We're just asking you guys to begin the process of processing it. Yeah, like you have to start looking at it analytically, because trust me, the way we're raised and no shade to the parents and not every parents the same, but like the way our community is, there's not enough conversation about it. Yeah, I would say that our community as long as people are getting higher level degrees and making between 60,000 and 150,000 a year, all these other like Flashpoint incidents, they kind of like get dismissed. It's not that people don't care about them when they pop up, but they're probably like, oh, well, that amount of slack has been built into the algorithm. What I'm saying is like I'm speaking to like basically like, yeah, that was built in like there was some like collateral damage built into the algorithm that the community runs and it's like, yo, it's becoming too much like if anything, even if you're thinking like a robot and it's funny because a lot of people accuse Asians specifically Chinese people of being robots, right? So let's just first of all, I don't think that's true, but let's just think robotically here. The algorithm is still being thrown out of whack because the downside is no longer being mitigated. It's like too much downside to justify the algorithm. Well, dude, honestly, if we were robots, they would be calculating things and being like, okay, guys, we probably have to figure something out. One side seems to outweigh the other. The attack levels of us being victims is soaring out of control. I've processed the numbers, ran them through many algorithms and I've come to the conclusion that there needs to be a different solution. I mean, we just got to make a change, man. And it's like, I think everybody has to play their part all hands on deck for this. Everybody has to be in this conversation on a different level. Yeah. And like I said, some people, I think are it's uncomfortable for them to engage in the macro, at least in this moment. Take care of your family, call your grandma call your grandma's friend. If like, you know what I mean? Like my grandparents passed away. All of them, you know, our grandparents have passed away at this point. RIP. I saw old lady trying to like in Chinatown the other day trying to get her walker up like over a curb and the car was coming and I was just like, all right, not that I think the car was going to hit her, but it just was a bad situation. And I was like, you know what? I'm just going to take five minutes out of my day and just like handle this or like help out that that's a micro because it was just something in front of me. Yeah, you know what I mean? So I just think that if people can help in the micro or the mid it could contribute to the macro or other people, like you said, more suited to contribute on a more macro level. And you know, to the people who say, oh, it's going to be hard for Asians to change. It's hard for Chinese people to change and adapt. I'm like, listen, look where we're at. Like look how far in one generation Asians can take themselves. Why can't we just use that energy and some of that thinking that we use to study and do the SATs and climb our way up the corporate ladder? Like just use some of that thinking for having these conversations and changing this. Sometimes we have funny videos. Sometimes we have deep videos. Sometimes you just got to say what you got to say. Guys, life is short. What are you going to do about? How are you going to have this conversation? How are you going to take the first step to at least having this conversation to process all this and to figure out a plan to we're going to donate to an anti-racism cause in your name. So leave the best comment about what Asian Americans should do to prevent this from constantly happening perpetually and I will pin the best one and you don't have to be Asian by the way. It can be anybody and I will pin the best one and we're going to donate $50 to anti-racism charity in your name. All right, everybody. Thank you so much for watching and until next time we out. Peace.

Designing an Alternative to Antibiotics
This is the VOA Special English Health Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com | http://facebook.com/voalearningenglish In 1928 a British scientist made a "chance observation." He noticed that some mold had grown in a bacterial culture plate in his laboratory. Molds can do that. But this mold had the ability to kill the bacteria around it. The scientist, Alexander Fleming, found that the mold was a member of a common group known as Penicillium. Fleming and two other scientists -- Ernst Boris Chain and Howard Walter Florey -- went on to win the Nobel Prize in 1945. They were honored "for the discovery of penicillin and its curative effect in various infectious diseases." Other powerful antibiotics have been discovered since penicillin. But many antibiotics have become less and less effective as the germs they are designed to kill develop resistance. So scientists are searching for new ways to treat infections. Now, researchers in Australia say they have made an important discovery. Scientists at Monash University in Melbourne believe an antibacterial viral protein called PlyC could be used as an alternative to antibiotics. This protein was first identified as a possible treatment for infections in 1925. But the research ended following the discovery of antibiotics.Now, scientists have spent six years studying the structure of the protein. They have found how it kills the bacteria that cause sore throats, pneumonia and streptococcal toxic shock syndrome. Australian researchers worked with scientists at the Rockefeller University in New York and the University of Maryland. Their findings appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Dr. Sheena McGowan of Monash University describes the protein as a powerful bacterial killing machine. She says it looks like a flying saucer carrying a pair of warheads. It connects to the surface of the bacterium and then cuts though the outside to destroy it. Sheena McGowan says it could be highly valuable when conditions like pneumonia do not respond to traditional treatments.She says some antibiotics are not as effective as they used to be. And she urges that more research be done to develop safe drugs for humans.The researchers have been studying PlyC's atomic structure to try to develop a drug. They say they have had success in treating streptococcal infections in mice. But an effective human treatment in the form of a pill or nasal spray may be at least 10 years away.For VOA Special English, I'm Alex Villarreal.(Adapted from a radio program broadcast 08Aug2012)

Ephesians chapter one I'll begin reading at verse one read to verse six and we'll get into our study. Ephesians chapter one beginning at verse one Paul and Apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God to the saints who are in Ephesus and faithful in Christ Jesus grace to you in peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ who blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and without blame before him in love having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to himself according to the good pleasure of his will to the praise of the glory of his grace by which he made us accepted in the beloved and so I'm going to give to you as I normally do when I begin a study a bit of a prolonged introduction and share a few things with you concerning this book that we're about to embark on an in-depth study of Ephesians is a letter that intends to encourage believers to know who they are in Jesus Christ it's a book that is filled with promises that God has given to his children in this book Paul reveals his shepherd's heart for these people he begins this letter by calling to their memories that they have been blessed by God notice verse 3 he points out that Jesus has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places he begins this way because he's concerned for them these people that he's writing to these Ephesians are spiritually rich yet they're living as if they were spiritually bankrupt and that's because they don't yet understand how blessed they are in Jesus Christ they have yet to understand that God is provided for them in every way several years ago now the LA Times reported the story of an elderly elderly man and his wife who were found dead in their apartment autopsies revealed that both had died of severe malnutrition although investigators had found a total of forty thousand dollars stored in paper bags in a closet today there are many Christians who are spiritually living below where they could be living so Ephesians reveals our riches in Christ and teaches us who we are in him you see pastor Paul wants all believers for all time to know that they are rich in Jesus Christ and the church including us should know that we are rich beyond measure in Jesus in Ephesians the word riches is used five times grace is used 12 times glory is used eight times and in Christ or its equivalent around 35 times so Paul obviously intends to instruct the church on how to understand the work that God has performed on our behalf when he gave his son Jesus Christ to die on a cross for us now this kind of understanding of what Christ has done what he's accomplished what he has given to us this kind of understanding takes place through the teaching as well as the application of the word of God you see in our day such a discipline of actually being taught and applying is not really that attractive to every Christian there's a growing number who actually resist Bible teaching because for them Bible teaching is boring some of the things that they may hear even disturbs them and it makes them uncomfortable they don't realize that that is falling into a prophetic word that God gave through the apostle Paul in 2 Timothy chapter 4 at verse 3 when he said a time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings instead they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who will tell them what they want to hear he speaks of satisfying their own desires what they do is they seek those who will satisfy their desires and support the errors that they hold and many churches today have discarded teaching the word and promote other things because they're aware of this this has given rise to what has been called cafeteria Christians many have turned away from the riches of God's word and are instead in a constant search for contentment in shallow human teachings and this reveals that they have yet to understand what Christ promised to his followers in John 4 13 and 14 Jesus said whoever drinks of this water will thirst again but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst but the water that I will give him will be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life and they don't understand that they don't understand John 6 35 when Jesus said I'm the bread of life and he who comes to me will never hunger he who believes in me shall never thirst well the Ephesians needed to be reminded of what they have in Jesus and I believe the church today needs to be reminded also so let me give you a background here of this book Jesus commanded his ministers to take the gospel throughout the world in Matthew chapter 28 as well as other passages so in obedience Paul came to the city of Ephesus it's recorded in the book of Acts in chapter 18 verses 18 through 21 he came to Ephesus on what is called his second missionary journey now when you look at the city of Ephesus and I believe I have some pictures of it Ephesus was one of the most beautiful cities of the ancient world it was on the southwest coast of Turkey and was a commercial center of ancient Asia Minor during what is called the Roman occupation from 129 BC to 262 AD the city swelled to over 250,000 people it was the second largest city and cultural center in the Roman Empire next to Rome itself Ephesus was famous for magic it's harbor and one of the seven wonders of the ancient world the temple of Diana it is estimated that the temple measured approximately 377 feet long by 180 feet wide using an American football field for perspective the layout of the temple was longer and wider than a standard sized field it was considered the first Greek style temple to be to be made completely of marble and was built with more than 100 marble columns standing 40 feet high the entire project took over 120 years to complete kind of like the work they're doing here on the street you notice how long that's taken they they built the empire state building in less than a year now when when paul by the way i've been to Ephesus marina i've been to Ephesus on two different occasions i i believe that there were pictures being shown so that you could see the city apparently i i think they were yeah like there's the temple right there and all of that we i've been there obviously the ruins they have a they have an amphitheater there that seats 25 000 and they're using it now for rock concerts it's kind of amazing and and they have a library the library of celsus it was one of the largest libraries of the ancient world it contained between 12 000 and 15 000 scrolls again i mentioned the amphitheater at seated 25 000 it also had the most advanced aqueduct systems in the world and so when paul entered the city the first thing he would do is he would go into a synagogue in acts chapter 18 90 19 through 21 it speaks of how paul first came into the city of Ephesus and in that passage luke revealed that he he was reasoning in the jewish synagogue which is what he would do by habit and he would go and speak to them about the lord jesus christ and when he first did that he received a welcome and was asked actually asked to stay longer but he wouldn't do it instead what he did is he left two of his fellow ministers behind a man by the name of aquila and his wife priscilla and they remained behind to minister he came back again on his third mission and he returned and stayed for three years and there he laid a very strong foundation that's found in acts chapter 20 verse 31 so paul when he would come he would preach and his preaching had a great impact on the city but it wasn't always favorable he had to leave Ephesus after igniting a near riot over the practice of idolatry you see that in acts 19 in acts 1926 there's a man by the name of dimetrius who was a silversmith who earned his living in making idols and all and he said you see and hear that not that not only at Ephesus but throughout almost all asia this paul has persuaded and turned away many people saying that they are not gods which are made with hands and so paul was arrested eventually and was put in jail when he was in prison paul wrote what are called the prison epistles Ephesians Philippians Colossians and philemon are what are called the prison epistles and so this book here is one of the prison epistles over her history Ephesus had great teachers and great leaders as we already noted paul ministered in Ephesus aquiline priscilla ministered in Ephesus john the elder the one who wrote the gospel of john is traditionally believed to have pastored in in Ephesus as well as young timothy so when you read uh first and second timothy you're actually reading a letter that is also to the church of Ephesus and so it was a very influential church that had a large impact over time it was a very significant church and one other letter that it has that has been written to it is found in the book of revelation when jesus wrote his letter to the church of Ephesus a church that had left its first love and so this is a letter that is written by paul to speak to these Ephesians to let them know what they have in christ and you can if you take the time which i'd encourage you to do you can piece together so many things that help you understand what is taking place in this magnificent city this city that is one of the most beautiful cities in the ancient world a city that the apostle paul came into and poured his heart out to the people of a church that paul stimulated a near riot for his proclamation of the gospel and yet a church that was built that was that was blessed that ultimately had great preachers and teachers but never listened to the word that jesus gave it when he said i have this one thing against you you're leaving your first love and so we're going to have an opportunity to look at the book of Ephesians if you are into um ways to get a hold of the the direction of the church you can actually divide Ephesians or the letter you can divide Ephesians using three words into three sections sit walk stand that is how you break up Ephesians sit seated in jesus christ walk the walk of the believer and then finally stand in spiritual warfare and we're going to be seeing all of those things eventually we're going to be getting to chapter five and uh when we get to chapter five that's a chapter that i'm going to take a little time in certain sections because it's a it's a chapter that deals with christian and and family marriage and family and it's one of my favorite portions of Ephesians as we look at the uh the christian marriage we'll be seeing that and i'm going to pray that people in our church will take the time to come especially for that section so that we can share with them some things that help us in our marriages and so with that said we'll begin now our study here in the book of Ephesians i'll begin with the introduction found in verses one and two and then move through until we get to verse six so we'll begin with verses one and two it's uh actually introduced in the common way that letters were written at that time it begins with the author of the letter paul it has the secondary which is to the saints so the first is the person who's writing then secondly it is to the the people who are being written and then third it's a blessing grace and peace and so he begins paul an apostle of jesus christ by the will of god to the saints who are in uh Ephesus and faithful in christ jesus grace to you and peace from god our father and the lord jesus christ typical introduction salutation and blessing notice as we begin paul begins by identifying himself paul an apostle of jesus christ this is a typical way that he began letters in he begins nine of his letters by by identifying himself in this way paul an apostle now the word apostle literally speaks of one who has been sent out or somebody with authority originally jesus chose 12 men he called them his apostles we know that judas fell through treachery and a disciple named mathias replaced him you see that in acts 126 paul became what has been called the 13th apostle and he was one who was uniquely chosen by god and refers to it in that way because he's an apostle of jesus christ by the will of god and so paul's calling to this position was not from man and he's pointing that out in his introduction it was not an appointment from man it was an appointment by the will of god you see man only recognizes the call of god but it's god who is the one who calls in appointments it's like john 15 16 where jesus said you didn't choose me i chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain that whatever you ask the father in my name he may give you you didn't choose me i chose you in the king james and i ordained you well paul is one who says i was not called an apostle by some vote by some committee i am called to be an apostle by god himself paul an apostle by the will of god my position in calling comes from god and then he says to the saints who are in Ephesus and faithful in christ jesus now when he says to the saints the saints speaks of god's part saints are those who have been set apart the word saint is a common word to speak of a believer it's used 96 times to speak of believers there are the saints but that's god's part he's set you apart faithful speaks of man's part faithful speaks of man's part in that those who have personally trusted in christ have exercised faith in him so god has called you you have entrusted yourself to him and so your saints and you are those who are faithful and it's been said either you are a saint or you're an ant there's neither you're either or and so a saint is somebody who's been called by god it's a common designation and that's what you you may not see yourself this way but i have to tell you and some of you ought to begin to realize what you are you have been set apart by god to serve him if you understand that and live that every day you're going to grow in the things of the lord in mighty ways you have been called by god there i've talked to so many people who have said well i i'm no saint well not in the way that human beings use that word probably not you're saying you're not perfect and i get that you're not i am and this is let's just admit that shall we no you're you're saying you're no saint but you're trying to say in fact that you're still a human being who's moving along the road i get it i understand but from a biblical sense you've been called by god and that is a common designation for you you ought to live up to the name god has called you and god is using you what is your part to be faithful to him we'll see that in some detail in a moment but he speaks out in this way to introduce this to the saints who are in Ephesus and faithful in christ jesus notice in christ jesus you see when you're saved you enter into a living relationship with jesus christ and we know that it's not a religion it's a living relationship with god himself and that's what makes us christians in john 15 verse 5 it says i'm the vine you are the branches he who abides in me and i in him bears much fruit for without me you can do nothing so we are in the vine the true vine we abide in jesus christ in 1st grinthians 12 13 for by one spirit we were all baptized into one body whether jews or greeks whether slaves or free and have all been made to drink into one spirit and so we are we are believers we are in christ jesus now when we forget that we have a living relationship with jesus christ what happens is we can become very religious and our lives begin to be filled with things that we think we need to do and when we fill ourselves up with things we need to do we begin to lose the joy of grace in romans 14 verse 17 it says the kingdom of god is not a matter of what we eat or drink but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the holy spirit and so in christ jesus we're saved and we have the peace and joy of the lord and he wants to remind us of those things immediately he goes on and he speaks concerning in verse 2 grace to you and peace from god our father and the lord jesus christ grace always precedes peace and both come from god to those who believe in him in romans 5 1 paul said having been justified by faith we have peace with god through our lord jesus christ so he gives a blessing grace to you and peace and then he moves on into the body of his letter verse 3 blessed be the god and father of our lord jesus christ who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in christ we'll look at that for a moment blessed be the god and father of our lord jesus christ who has blessed us he opens with praise because god has been good to us and psalm 68 19 blessed to be the lord who daily loads us with benefits the god of our salvation he says god has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places now this is what jesus promised us as followers and that includes both chou and gentile he had said in john chapter 10 verse 10 the thief comes not but for to steal and to kill and to destroy iam come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly blessed be god who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places notice he says we have every spiritual blessing made available to man and the gospel reveals these blessings are for those who receive christ as savior when he speaks of spiritual blessings this is interesting this word spiritual is an interesting word word it it the word spiritual is a greek word pneumaticos it refers to the working of the holy spirit it speaking of the origin of the blessing that believers receive the origin of the blessings come from god the spirit so if people desire the spiritual blessings of god they first need to come to jesus christ so to those who by faith come to trust in him spiritual rest and spiritual blessings belong to them and that's what paul is reminding the effusions of paul is telling the church that god has now listened already provided for them what they need he's already provided you might want to note that in your heart if not on a note god has already provided for you what you need he is saying they need to make use of what they already have in him when we understand that it changes the way that we pray i heard the story of a man who was an art collector perhaps you've heard of this he was an art collector and there was a particular painting that he wanted so he sent one of his uh his employees out to seek for this particular painting and the employee did his due diligence he was he hunted the internet he did everything he could to find this particular painting this man wanted the man had an amazing art collection but he wanted this one painting and so after some time his employee came into his room and spoke to him and the man said well have you found the painting and the employee says i have sir he says well where is it and the employee said you already own it this man already owned the painting that he sent someone seeking for he had so many things he never even realized the thing that he wanted most was already in his possession and there are a lot of believers exactly like that you're always asking god for certain things not you only we ask god god i need this and we forget wait a minute he has already supplied those things for me i'm not accessing them by faith i already have those things the things that i'm asking for are things he's already he has blessed me with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places and why do i constantly go back asking for the same thing that i already have possession of i'm simply not walking in why is that well that's what he's saying he's saying you need to know what you have in jesus christ when you received christ you were made heir to tremendous spiritual blessings the bible says that in jesus believers have already been abundantly blessed and the blessings that we have are spiritual blessings and they're blessings that originate in heavenly places various places in scripture you begin to to read concerning the things that god has provided for us for example in first Corinthians chapter one verses five through seven Paul said to the Corinthians in everything you are enriched by him in all utterance in all knowledge even as the testimony of christ was confirmed in you so that you come behind in no gift waiting for the coming of our lord jesus christ in second Corinthians 5 21 he says he has made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of god in him in Colossians 2 verse 10 you have been given fullness in christ who's ahead over every power and authority and peter in second peter 1 3 said his divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness the church already has these things in christ but the church isn't living as if they understand they possess that and that's why i was thinking that a good book for us as a church to start the year would be to go through Ephesians to see how god has blessed us and to begin to walk in those blessings that we've already received in him to learn to do that he says we've been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in christ though we live presently on earth we are blessed to be citizens of heaven it's been referred to as dual citizenship we are sojourners we are pilgrims we're living out here but our real home is heaven in Philippians 3 20 it says our citizenship is in heaven from which we also eagerly wait for the savior the lord jesus christ so as mentioned as heavenly citizens we have what is called a dual citizenship we're yet to reach our heavenly home but we still receive blessings from heaven many years ago now i was in spain first time i ever went to spain was in 1975 and i went through europe i was there for three months and i went through backpacked europe with a friend of mine and we were living on ten dollars a day now this is back in 1975 so you can imagine um it was in it was an interesting three months i i was already skinny at that time i weighed 155 when i started i weighed in two months i was weighing 145 because we weren't eating you know we were walking nine hours a day and and and hardly eating anything at all and so i was down to skin and bone and so by the time i got to spain uh i i needed some money so i wrote home i called home actually to my mom and i said mama um i had left some money in my bank account and i said mama send me some money and so my mom sent me some money through american express and i went to mid in madrid i went into the american express office and i went up to the counter and i and i said i have money waiting for me and uh i'd like to make use of it and so i was able to take something that was sent from some other place and make use of it at that time and that's kind of how it is with us with the blessings god has given to us we are we are we are residents of heaven but we live right now on earth we're pilgrims and we're sojourners but the blessings god is sending to us are our blessings that we go and receive we we go and make claim to them they belong to us they've been sent to us they are ours and and so you have been blessed i have been blessed by the spirit by the lord spiritual gifts and and and blessings that come from god they're from heavenly heaven they're of heavenly origin their gifts that the spirit of god has made possible for us but what we need to do is understand that they are ours and then receive what is ours by faith and say lord i i i would like to make access to that and so he has given to us these things you have plenty of things and we're going to be looking through them in some detail this is just your introduction but we have these things and their blessings from heaven he points to them for us notice in verse four just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and without blame before him in love so the concept of god choosing he has chosen us in him is deeply rooted in scripture it is taking the taking of a smaller number out of a larger number the church has been called or referred to as the called out ones that's what ecclesia speaks of the called out ones we've been taken out of the world so that we would serve god and become heavenly servants and citizens so he's chosen us he's taken us from the larger the world and he's brought us into relationship with him and you see this concept of choosing i'll touch this very briefly in in the bible through the old in the new testament it is seen in god choosing israel this concept of choosing is seen when he chose his prophets his servants and you also see this when jesus chose the apostles in in in deuteronomy chapter seven seven and eight it says the lord did not set his love upon you nor choose you because you were more in number than any people for you were the fewest of all people but because the lord loved you and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn to your fathers has the lord brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you out of the house of bond men from the hand of pharaoh king of egypt so the lord chose you that he was speaking to israel as for servants you see that in Jeremiah chapter one verse five a prophet when he said before i formed you in the belly i knew you before you came forth out of the womb i sanctified you and i ordained you a prophet to the nation nations and then you see the apostles as mentioned in john 15 16 when jesus had said you haven't chosen me i have chosen you and so when he says in verse four he chose us in him before the foundation of the world god determined all who believed on jesus would be saved he didn't choose some to be saved while others he left to be lost forever scripture clearly portrays god's desire for all men to be saved you see it see that in the most famous new testament scripture john 3 16 god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life you see it in first timothy 2 verse 4 where it says god will have all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth you see it in the old testament book of isaiah 45 22 where god says look unto me and be saved all the ends of the earth and so god has determined that those who believe in jesus christ are to be saved his choosing isn't based on man's logic it's rooted in his omniscience his foreknowledge he knows all possible plans for salvation and he selected the best one of the systematic theologians that i will inquire of very famous one is named uh schaefer lewis berry schaefer and schaefer said this he said having a plan and knowing all of its details god could then foreknow all who would be saved or elected and also all the facts that relate to their salvation now that plan would include giving man a freedom of choice for which he would be responsible god does not violate man's ability to make moral choices that he will be held responsible for if you think immediately of man like poncho's pilot and judas the scariat they made a willing choice and they suffered the consequences for doing that when you look at this in this way that he's speaking of when he uses the word he has chosen us and in verse five speaking of predestined us to adoption when you look at those those concepts and all you consider the fact that god has we'll say omniscience he knows all things he has foreknowledge he knows what will take place i've always considered his foreknowledge uh to be like a delayed telecast um i was in line many years ago marie and i were going to see a movie and this is years ago and there was a contest that had been played between two different teams in all and and i knew the results of that contest i already knew the results of it and there were two little boys young boys in front of me standing in line arguing about this particular game and one was saying i think that the rams one will say the other guy was saying i think dalas one oh no so i was there i was and i knew the result of the game and so finally one of the kids said i'll bet you i'll bet you that so-and-so one the other guy knew i'll bet you this other i already knew the results so i turned to one of the kids was was uh betting on the rams naturally and i said bet on the rams and bet big why because they won and and i knew that already but this hadn't been televised yet so these kids didn't know it and so that's kind of an easy very simplistic way of looking at it but i see the lord as knowing the results of the game before the game is played and anybody else knows it god already knows the results and in his choosing he chose those who are going to come to him in faith that's just makes sense it's logical to see that it's in the way that the lord uh he sees things he sees things differently than us it's like what it says in isaia 46 9 and 10 remember the former things of old for i am god there's none else i'm god there's none like me declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things that are not yet done saying my council shall stand i will do all my pleasure god has a full scope of knowledge and he makes choices and he has chosen us to be in his son now god through his spirit by the word and by the preaching of the of the gospel calls people to faith in him in psalm 34 verse 8 o taste and see that the lord is good blessed is the man who trusts him isaia 2 verse 5 oh house of jacob come let us walk in the light of the lord revelation 22 17 an invitation the spirit and the bride say come let him who hears say come let him who thirsts come whoever desires let him take the water of life freely so god does not violate your will he appeals to it by the gospel and convicts you with the holy spirit he sovereignly calls us he desires to bless us and he has a purpose in choosing us now verse 4 tells us the purpose of him choosing us is that we should be holy and without blame before him when he says we should be holy we should be separated to him we should not be part of this world system when he says we should be blameless the word blameless means spotless unblemished because we have his nature when you're born again you should be living a life that reveals that he chose us that we might be acceptable suitable or fit for himself so in Philippians 2 15 Paul says that you may be blameless and harmless the sons of god without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation among whom you shine as lights in the world you see when you go to work when you're in your neighborhood when you're in the store when you're at the gas station when you're rolling through that stop sign wherever you are you are a testimony of the grace of god you are a testimony of the grace of god we ought to always remember that because he's chosen us to be holy and he's chosen us to be blameless we have a purpose and it's not that you can't live a holy life and it's not that you can't live a life that is unspotted from the world you can am i saying you can be perfect no of course not am i saying that god by his holy spirit can sanctify you and and make you more and more like him over time as you yield yourself to him and forsake things that take you away from him absolutely and what is the choice that we should make to walk in his ways that's what he has called us to do and so god intends that for us now in verse five he says having predestined us to adoption as sons by jesus christ to himself according to the good pleasure of his will having predestined us to adoption as sons by jesus christ to himself from the very beginning god intended to send jesus to die on the cross for us revelation 13 verse 8 speaks of jesus as the lamb slain from the foundation of the world so god is determined that we would become his children through jesus christ and notice he says in verse five we have become adopted children of god jesus is the only begotten son of god we have been adopted into his family let me share with you a little bit about that as we're about to come to a conclusion we have become adopted children of god according to roman law the person who had been adopted had all the rights of a legitimate son in his new family and completely lost all rights in his old family in the eyes of the law he was a new person so new was he that even all debts and obligations connected with his previous family were abolished as if they had never existed when you were brought into god's family all your debts and obligations the things that you had done wrong and were sinful in have been completely forgiven can you live that way we ought to we ought to don't let me be practical practical about this for just a moment don't give in to your lying heart the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked who can know it if our heart condemns us god is greater than our heart and he knows all things when you gave yourself to christ the blood of jesus christ his son cleanses us from how many sins cleanses us from all sins you mean even the sins that i have yet to commit when jesus died on the cross every one of your sins were still yet future you hadn't even been born yet you hadn't even had opportunity to sin yet when he died on the cross he died for all of your sins when you came to faith in christ the blood of jesus christ cleansed you from every stinking sin you've ever committed every single one and this is where the end amen this is where the enemy rips the body of christ up reminding you of what you've done in the past reminding you of what you've been reminding you of how you were and not only does he do that through your own heart he can do it through family members or friends he can do it by those who knew you at one time who say you haven't changed you're the same way and you can be convinced within yourself yeah i'm lost i'm no good i've never been any different that's a lie that is the biggest lie one of the things that i can tell you was somebody who's walked with the lord now for quite some time is this the devil is a liar but jesus christ will never lie let god be true in every man a liar when god says it it's forever and it's true and when god said you're my son or you're my daughter when god said i completely forgive you that is complete that is it it is finished it's over you're brand new in jesus christ and paul wants the ephesians and and by application we want to know that we too are forgiven we are brand new in jesus christ i'm not what i was i admit what i've done that's how i got saved god forgive me a sinner but i am not that man anymore that man is dead it's like that man is in in a casket and that casket has been closed and it's been placed in the ground and it was buried when i got baptized it's done it's over it's gone i'm brand new in jesus christ and we need to understand that and i remind myself of that i remind myself of that i am not what i used to be i am not a liar i am not a thief i am not profane i'm not an alcoholic i'm not a druggy i'm none of those things i'm a moral man in love with christ and that's what god has done if any man be in christ he's a new creation we need to understand that the church i think has forgotten that in many ways you see we received a new life in christ in romans 8 14 through 16 as many as are led by the spirit of god these are the sons of god you didn't receive the spirit of bondage again to fear you receive the spirit of adoption by whom we cry out abba father the spirit himself bears witnesses with our spirit we are children of god that word abba you go to israel and you will hear the little children saying that to their dads to this day abba the word abba is is his daddy his papa that's what the word means and so when he says we cry out abba that's speaking of a tenderness that we have a relationship with god he's like that gentle loving father perhaps you never had but he's that and as you look to him now he's your daddy he loves you well the blessed fact is when we receive christ now this is powerful we have god's life in our soul his spirit gives life to our spirit we become what scripture calls partakers of the divine nature and second peter one three and four the apostle said his divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness through these he has given us his very great and precious promises so that through them you may participate the word participate speaks to being a joint partner you may participate in the divine nature having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires while human parents can adopt a child and love them as their own child but god is imparted to his children his own nature that's what it means to be born again john mccarthur a very orthodox and good teacher said this he said to be saved to be saved is to have the very life of god in our souls alexander mcclaren a great cleric of another time said the very purpose of christianity for which god has sent his son and his son came is that we poor sinful weak limited ignorant creatures as we are maybe lifted up into that solemn and awful elevation and received in our trembling and yet strengthened souls a spark of god that you may be partakers of the divine nature means more than that you may share in the blessings which that nature bestows it means that into us may come the very god himself when you're born again you are born again not a perishable seed but by imperishable the word of god and what happens is you become you you come to life with the very life of god within you you have been given his life within you now that means that we become partakers of what god would have us to be and he dwells within us our nature is transformed you have a new nature and that new nature is from god and so that's what makes us children of god we've been brought into his family through faith in christ washed in cleanse and now his holy spirit dwells within us has given us the new nature that's what it means to be born again that's what it means to be a child of god and now we have his life within us and that is all according to the good pleasure of his will so salvation and its blessings accompanying it is what pleases god and then he goes on in verse six and he says it this way as he closes to the praise of the glory of his grace by which he made us accepted in the beloved the reason that god has saved us is so that in the end it brings glory to him his salvation is of grace and because it is it eliminates all human boasting man cannot save himself so when he is saved the glory goes to the god who saved him 1 Corinthians 1 27 through 29 says god chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise god chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong god chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things and the things that are not not important to nullify the things that are so that no one may boast before him god salvation is of grace it eliminates all human boasting and we have been saved that we might bring glory to the god who saved us so we are made acceptable by god's grace through Jesus christ by his unmerited favor and that should give us a heart to rejoice and praise him not only on the face of the earth but for all eternity you have been if you've given your heart to christ born again you have become partakers of the divine nature god has made you into his child by faith you received christ and to as many as received him to them gave he the power to become sons of god even into those who believed on his name you gave your heart to christ you have gone through the what is called regeneration this is a heavy book we'll be seeing more of this as we go through but the holy spirit has dwelt within you you have the new nature that has been imparted to you and the blessings that you now have are blessings that god has secured for you through Jesus christ and what we need to learn to do is to walk in those blessings that god has already given to us and when you begin and i begin to just say you know what as a child of god i know the lord has plans for me and right now it may seem like uh like everything's going against but i know in the end that god will have victory so i'm gonna hold fast and learn whatever lesson i need to learn because whatever i go through is conforming me into the image of christ no what no matter what i go through at the end it's going to answer the prayers that i have prayed when i have sincerely said god make me like you so one of the things i've learned to do and i'll close with this thing i'm learning to do and have learned somewhat to do is to give god time to show me what he desires to do instead of being impatient thinking oh you didn't move there for you i don't do that those who wait on the lord renew their strength and so as i wait on the lord i say lord i know that you want to do something i'm going to trust that you will and even though i don't understand the route that you're taking i do know that what the result will be is what i've asked of you i want to be like you and if this makes me more like you then whatever it is may it occur because at the end that's all i want because i am being conformed into the image of jesus christ and if this is the way it's going to happen then praise you jesus that's the way it's going to happen and at the end you look back and you say all this time that i thought i was abandoned or all this time so many times i thought i was alone in fact that was not that was not true at all god was beside me every step of the way he never abandoned me he never left me he never forsook me he was there carrying me half the time and i didn't even know it and that's what happens at the end and i can share that because one scripture teaches that and two i have lived through that and i'm living through that now now the lord is always in charge every step of the way and he always takes you exactly where you wanted to be and sometimes you didn't even know that's where you wanted to be and then you go well this is what i prayed for lord you see one last thing you know when i first got saved i used to say oh lord jesus i want to get married i want to be married oh please bring and so i would pray for a blonde because i like blondes i would pray for blondes when they walked in the room i'd say in jesus name i've claimed that one for me she will make me happy oh lord and god had different plans you know i wanted a blonde and and the lord said i'm going to keep her in the oven a little longer than that and he brought me my marie those who wait on the lord show renew the strength those who wait on the lord god has a way of bringing that what you wanted but didn't know exactly what it was but it's always the right thing you know god has a work he's doing in us guys and i think as we go through this book we're going to begin to open our eyes to some of the wonderful things that he's already done that we just haven't seen yet i'm excited to go through the book of aphesians and we'll pick up next time at verse seven our father we've

Hi, my name is Tracy Tecajome Spinoza and this is a video on the learning styles myth. It's meant to talk about neural myths as an opportunity for teachers' professional development. I'm a professor at the Harvard University Extension School. I teach a course called the Neural Science of Learning. It's an introduction to mind-brain health and education. And I am associate editor at the Nature Partner Journal of Science of Learning. And I've also taught all levels of education from preschool through university and also in adult education. And today I want to do two basic things. I want to really encourage you to think about a way of using neural myths as a form of professional development, how this really should be a part of all teachers' basic knowledge. Then I want to use the learning styles myth as an example and leave you with a big reflection. Learning styles is not the same as the theory of multiple intelligences and I just want to make that big distinction using the evidence. The learning styles myth is based on an idea that people are either visual learners, auditory learners or kinesthetic learners. This learning style related to your sensory perception that you prefer either visual, auditory or kinesthetic learning. Now this is not to say that you cannot develop a cognitive preference for one of these styles because if after all you know when you're in third grade and I tell you you're a visual learner, you do nothing more than look for visual cues around the world, and so you can become a more visual learner. You can favor that kind of sensory input but it doesn't mean that's what your brain would like. Some other people have extended this idea to even go from visual, auditory, kinesthetic which sort of made a little bit of sense because it has to do with senses. But then they've lopped on here this idea of reading and writing. Not sure exactly where that came from. And other people have gone even further unfortunately to try to pretend like these things are associated with specific brain areas. I just want to say the things on the periphery here looking to include a lot more variety and novelty or have more active or physical activities in class or thinking very hard about how you create or design the learning environment. All of those things are terrific and I really hope they do happen. The main problem here is that they're pretending that all of this is underscored by research that says that learning styles is a real thing. And this becomes even more discouraging in education when we think about all the money that goes into promoting this idea of learning styles. And even surveys or tests that think that in 20 questions they can tell you what kind of a learner you are and based on that teacher should craft teaching interventions based on that particular auditory visual or kinesthetic preference. That's a little bit off. And the main problem with this it gets to the heart of all learning myths. All myths do harm. I think that we share the first rule with physicians that above and beyond anything we just do no harm. That means if the information does not have substantial evidence behind it we should not go in that direction. The worst thing is that this also takes away resources from funding things that we know are actually better interventions. And it also distracts from really learning how the brain actually does learn. In a very short response and I know we could go on for several years discussing how the brain really learns but in a very short answer basically you have to perceive your world. Aristotle knew this thousands of years ago. You perceive your world through all of your senses and basically your brain picks and chooses among the things that input that it receives and it tries to see if you have any kind of existing memory for the new sensory input or stimuli. And if you do you can connect on to that memory and you can reinforce that memory or you can actually invest energy and truly learn something new. This synaptic communication either because it's reinforced neural pathways or it's new neural pathways occurs between all the neurons in your brain and it's enhanced by familiarity, practice and repetition. And if there's enough repetition you can get a strengthening of the myelin sheath which speeds up the electrical and chemical signals in your brain so that you can actually retrieve information faster and be able to use it in new contexts. And so all this is just to say that your brain is constantly trying to make sense of its world using all of its senses. Not just one or another and not just favoring one or another. And so the main reason this is so sad is because all of these sensory inputs are indistinct neural pathways in the brain and basically by reinforcing multiple pathways you would give yourself the opportunity of being able to retrieve information in a greater variety of ways rather than just through a single sensory pathway. So again not only is this myth wrong but it is damaging because it keeps people from perhaps living up to their potential for learning by shutting down the other pathways in the brain for creating important memories for new concepts in learning. Just step back for a second and think, you know, very, very simply. How is this true? How could we ever get into believing that about kids? I mean, look at this little boy here. Getting hugged by his little sister. What kind of learning style do you think he has? Impossible to say, right? This guy is taken in the whole world through all of his senses and so we just want to remind teachers that your brain adapts to what it does most. And one of the saddest things about learning styles is that kids get locked into thinking that they are only meant to be able to learn through one of these sensory modalities and in doing that we deprive them of understanding their world in a greater variety of ways. So many of you might be saying, but I am a visual learner. I am an auditory learner. I am kinesthetic. It may very well be that you have become that because you've rehearsed that particular neural pathway more than others. But that's not really what your brain would like, right? And it's really clear that in early childhood education we're actually pretty good about calling attention to using all the senses. But thank goodness for people like Costa and Calak who remind us in things like Happen to Mind that part of understanding your world, part of being a critical thinker, part of learning to maximize your own potential as a learner is gathering information through all of your senses. And so we hope that you as teachers will begin to reject that myth. And if you don't believe me, let's look at the literature. Over the past dozen years there's been hundreds of articles that really refute the idea. Burr and Pasture spent a lot of time trying to determine what evidence is there for learning styles because it's so popular, right? Then we started getting more pushback. Just stop propagating this learning styles myth. There is no good scientific evidence behind it. Despite that though, it is thriving even in higher education where some freshmen are actually told that they should take this learning styles inventory before selecting their majors. That's really scary, right? What we really find out though is that a lot about learning styles has a lot to do with taking the little things that we do know about ourselves that we reflect on and sort of exploiting those to say that, okay, that categorizes you into a type of learner, which is really unfortunate because it really does limit you, right? Others aside from the original proponents of the idea began to try to test this theory and followed kids who had been blocked into being visual, kinesthetic, or auditory learners across learning trajectories to see exactly how they fared. And being categorized in that way did nothing to benefit their eventual learning outcomes. And the myth still persists even through the 2020s we still have people applying the learning styles myth despite the number of people that call for it to be tossed out and that money could be better used in other places. Perhaps one of the best summary articles comes from a passion learning colleagues that tried to summarize for the American science and public interest publication what evidence actually does exist for and against learning styles and what do we really know about this information? Bottom line is that they could not understand this huge contrast between the enormous popularity of this particular intervention and the lack of credible evidence which they found to be striking and very disturbing. And so on the whole of it, there's a lot of better ways to invest resources. And perhaps the first thing we have to do as teachers is appreciate the complexity of human variability. There's a lot of different kinds of kids in our classrooms and we have to embrace that. We have to embrace their differences and embrace the idea that they may be learning in very different ways. So I wanna thank you for listening and as a final reflection to sort of make this stick, think to yourself if there were three things we mentioned today that you didn't know before. And if there's two things that you really wanna continue researching you're curious about now and maybe one thing you'll do differently in your practice. Thanks for doing that and if you have any questions don't hesitate to get in contact. Take care.

This one has a BDS lift on it with Fox shocks, has a 6.7 liter Cummins diesel, and has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop. Has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. Bright silver metallic is the color we shoot all of our videos in 1080p, 60 frames per second. So if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, or smartphone device, turn them on right now because it is like you're right here looking at the truck with me.

Haas style, 20 inch, painted and polished aluminum rims that are in excellent shape. Falcon Wild Peak 37x12.5 R20 LT tires with about, I don't know, 70, 80% of the tread left on them. You got the Fox shocks with the reservoirs. This has a BDS suspension lift kit on it. The frame in the underbody is exceptionally clean on this truck. Has some aftermarket, metal, front and rear bumpers. Absolutely perfect condition as LED fog lamps, projector lamp headlamps, LED running lights. I didn't see any dents or dings on the hood. Passenger side fender is in excellent shape as well. No scuffs or scrapes on that fender flare in the passenger side rim. Absolutely perfect. And as you go down this side of the truck you can see just how clean that body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. We take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and just cannot make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle you can see the vehicle, hear the vehicle and have confidence in the truck that you're looking at before you even get here so that you can make a smart buying decision from the comfort of your own home.

Take a look at how clean this frame and underbody is on this truck like new under here. Has all the remaining factory exhausts, it does have the power running boards. With their amp research, didn't see any denser dings on this box. The back tires have just as much tread as the front tires and this back rim is in excellent shape as well. You do get foc shocks back here as well and you get that coil spring in the back. Frame and underbody absolutely perfect as we come around to the back, see it as a towing package with the receiver hitch four pin and seven pin wearing, the backup parking sensors in the aftermarket rear bumper. The tailgate is in excellent shape, it does have a locking tailgate and a backup camera, a very nice drop in pedal liner, bed liner, that's a nice shape. Must have a shock assist up in there, tailgate's really light, looks like LED tail lamps and down this side of the truck just as clean as that passenger side, no denser dings on the box and for full disclosure this back rim is absolutely perfect. Down the rest of this side, I didn't see any denser dings in the doors, it does have the heated fold out tow mirrors so they fold out like so. They also power fold in, you can see the amp research power boards and you do get LED lights that light them up, power windows, power locks and those power fold in mirrors, they'll say fold in like so, also has auto headlamps, I believe this is for your aftermarket fog lamps. Inside the Laramie package gives you the black leather interior, there are no rips or tears on the seats, you got the Laramie embossed backrest, memory driver's seat, driver's side lumbar, factory floor mats throughout and as we hop inside the truck here, you can see that this one has 26,704 miles, you get the 7 inch LCD display and you can see that it has the digital speedometer outside temperature, you can put on the corners there as well as the compass range to empty current miles per gallon, all that good stuff, comes with the heated leather wrap steering wheel, cruise controls on the right, Bluetooth and information center controls on the left, comes with the six-speed automatic transmission, the 8.4 3C touchscreen radio with the factory navigation, this is also where your backup camera shows up, you can do your heated seats here and your cooled seats, you also have your AMFM and Sirius XM radio capabilities, you can also do your climate controls here as well, if you don't like doing the climate controls up there you can do them down here and you can also do your heated and cooled seat and heated steering wheel buttons down here as well, turned out four-wheel drive, factory brake controller, stability control, toll hall, your factory exhaust brake and your front and rear parking sensors, you can turn those off and on, you do a dual climate control and you do get a 115 volt 150 watt plug-in, passenger side seat and floor mat are in excellent shape, no rips or tears on that, this truck smells very clean, I don't think it's ever been smoked in, you do get the speakers in the roof, part of the Alpine premium sound system, map lights, power slide and rear window and you do get your home link buttons there for your garage door security systems and lighting systems, 911 and assist in the mirror, those are features of the vehicle that you never pay a subscription for and as you can see it does have the Alpine badge there letting you know that it has the subwoofer and the upgraded sound system, we'll take a quick look at the back seats and then we'll check out under the hood, really a nice truck all the way around, body and condition wise, interior wise, no rips or tears back here, does have that power sliding rear window and the latch child safety system for all your child car seat needs, these seats fold up and it does have a load floor which is nice, you can put both sides down, if you got pets they got a nice flat place to lay or if you got muddy boots or tools you can put them on a nice flat surface and not get your seats dirty, also if you're a hunter you can put your guns on there and they have a nice flat surface as well, so you do get in-floor storage here, looks like it does have a locking storage container, I'm not sure if we have the key for that or not, would have to check the key fob and you do get the child safety locks on the back doors here, we'll take a quick look under the hood, I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and it's really cold out today so I apologize my gimbal is not working quite the way it should, under the hood we have the 6.7 liter Cummins diesel but I do hope you have been able to tell just how clean the truck is and have a really good idea of the overall condition of the vehicle, this one has been fully safety inspected by our service shop has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off and this truck is 100% ready to go, I would highly recommend it from a quality and condition standpoint and to see more pictures of this truck or one of our other 450 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, wranglers, half tons, three quarter tons, one tons, you name it, we got to go to our website www.summitauto.com full pictures and descriptions of every single vehicle from two locations all at summitauto.com, if you'd like to check out more HD videos you can go to youtube.com slash summit auto, remember to like subscribe and share on this video and all the videos that you see there, in fact in a second you will see a link to subscribe to our YouTube channel and your lefty links more, heavy duty truck videos like this one and you're right if you have not been to our website on the bottom a link to this vehicle on our website click those check us out and we're super excited to help you with this super clean 2017 Ram 2500 crew cab short box with a BDS suspension lift kit on it and the Cummins diesel, thanks again.

Hello everybody. If it's Wednesday and it's the Wednesday in March of Adepticon that means It's Warhammer. Okay now Yeah, uh, I'm tired. I'm here. I'm joined by Tyler Marty Scott John. It's all five of us. We're here. We're reacting. We're talking Rock and roll. Okay guys Where do we begin with this? Let me just begin from the peanut gallery behind me here We're gonna go we're gonna go this direction across so Tyler you're up first here. We go. All right I'm gonna say some positive things because I feel like we're high level overview. We're gonna do well on the other end Okay, so I loved the lady of rent. I was surprised that we saw that I mean I was hoping for they don't know what that is yet because they haven't seen it. Okay. All right Well, she is Archie Hans second in command basically Just yeah Marty's gonna do it in the Vanguard of the very guard Vanguard of the Vanguard. She's got horns I don't know why she has horns, but she's got a warning something to do with her spear. Yeah, I don't know what the spear is about But yeah, it's it's it's a phenomenal. So yeah They tried a new format for the preview this year Compared to especially how they did the preview at the World Championships in November and Nova. They're trying these new things This year they tried a one-hour movie with lots of commentary for each of their reveals and releases Even the teasers. I'm not sure if that experiment worked this time But I think that they're trying to hone in on a new way to show us cool stuff. I really appreciate that Yeah, I think it didn't really take advantage of the format of Like a live show like with being able to react to the crowd's energy and like what they're excited to like a plot for And then you know not missing out on information because there's applause going on But I'm super jazzed for the spearhead version of AOS I heard like he does about like like tactical cars that can be played and like special rules for that size format I'll have to dabble, you know, I don't want to Invest always in a full army. If I can do like a small army, say like Darko Savage or something like that. They're really cool. So yeah Yeah, yeah, I Never knew that I could see so few models in one Yep That's my own there you go. All right. So let's let me let me let everybody who's watching this for all of you There's a thing playing on the other side of the screen right now muted This is what we were hustled into a room which took 30 minutes to get everybody into the room Okay, and then we watched an hour and 12 minute movie of all of these people talking This is not content. I needed for the reveal show. I really didn't I appreciate like you said They're trying something new it was Awful that room is hot. It is sticky. It is full of stinky nerds like no offense. Everybody who is there I'm one of them. I'm one of those stinky nerds. I'm not it was so I'm not absolving myself and It's just like a lot of talking you can barely hear about micro detail about each product I don't need to be marketed to to this degree. It made what is normally a very fun thing to see the new models and new rules just a laborious Sisyphean task it was every time one of those videos would end the boulder would go back down the hill As I had to push it back up again for the next video the most glorious things were the teasers for necromunda and whatever Thank you because they were nothing they were nothing there were three seconds They didn't discuss it. I was like, oh, thank God this one's done next thing just next thing Please God end this suffering. I have never wanted to run fleeing from a room more in my life My claustrophobia was on like a million Okay, and I'm being forced to just like listen in gory detail that I do not care about it would not willingly watch if not trapped Okay to this stuff now with that overview out of the way I told Marty he's gonna bitch about two things Yeah Okay, let's actually talk about the things we saw because there was a lot of a lot of stuff in here I'm actually gonna struggle to remember all of this because there was so much So we're gonna have to we're gonna have to all put our heads together for this, okay? I'm gonna go in no particular order. So folks. We're gonna just hit this in the kind of order We have we will be ahead of the video, but we're gonna give you the spoilers for Everything by the way Evan just said yo tell me about her spear Okay, so let's just start with some of the smaller things let's get some of these out of the way as I mentioned there was a what was that a Was it heresy yeah heresy a necromanter had like a teaser there was just like an image and nothing else So one for being adept as Yes In the room rumors have it as more plastic nights, but for ad-mech in the 30k set, right? So don't know that was just teasers. Okay. There was a worm 40k kill team that people seemed pretty excited about that was like Squats versus Jean Steeler calls. Yes. So what do you think about that one? You're you know, you guys are there's general kill team enthusiasm in there That seemed to be pretty well received and we got to see real models. Yes. Yeah, very unique new models Other than the one Jean Steeler big boy But yeah, very fun unique takes I think seeing this side of the Dwarfs It was really cool to see not just generic space dwarfs, but we gotta see some special specialist models Yeah, they're the Hurthkin. What were they Hurthkin something something? Rangers not Walker, Texas They had a name, but they were cool Marty. Do you remember their name Hurthkin something? Unfortunately where Tyler and I were sitting the speakers on both sides hit a lot of the text because it was Yeah, yeah frame in certain ways or it's just it was hard to see yeah, and then you had the Jean Steelers, which was really good I loved the veteran Jean Steeler like the veteran Imperial guardsmen who would yes More clearly. Yes. We really didn't get good pictures. Where was the way? You know, where was the framed model beauty shots of just the miniatures they were all put in the settings That's cool for the video like, you know, they're in a kill team board with like colored lighting like heavy red heavy green they all had the bisexual lighting on them and Like the problem was we didn't actually get the beauty shot of just the models Here's the 10 of them. What is the name of the spots I keep Leagues of OTAN there we go. Hold on. It's catching up I liked the Eastern European kind of like speck ops vibes at some of them have like the big kind of Longer like leather like jacket stuff like that and a long rifles and stuff. Yeah, that's pretty cool All right, and we drop for a second, but that's fine. We're back at it. We're back. All right, cool 40k they had two models. Well 40 kids so 40k we saw the chaos space frame stuff at the beginning That was like the two battle forces and all of that But there's all a lot of those are all models The new chaos lord dude. Yeah, that ass looking I think they were a little muddy there I think so this is from my understanding is there are two new models and two new box sets Right, so one each box that will have one of the two new chaos lords Correct I don't know if either of them will have the codex in it. I think they're just battle forces Mm-hmm. That makes sense, but they weren't quite clear on that. Yeah, they said battle forces Yeah, but do the battle forces include the codex? Sure. Yeah Is that is that a rule now? It was mostly old stuff repackaged, but the new lords did look really good Yeah, so okay, let's talk about the two things that are actually on the screen here. They're AOS related ones so first up we had the war cry of the Sylvaneth and the OBR So we had our big centroid Leader guy for that side are the other OBR and then we had the infected Sylvaneth Right, so I'm gonna go to two people for this Tyler as the our resident former Sylvaneth player. What'd you think of the Sylvaneth? I mean, I think it obviously goes with that thing. Marty's spotted this Friday It looked like basically new Dryads like we might write that's a kid of 16 It's this old kid of Dryads. Maybe we'll get a new box at some point. Yeah, they look great. Yeah, they're all Yeah, they mentioned they were more elite too. Yeah, like they were better angry or upgraded Dryad or something like that Yeah, yeah, so that was cool. Yeah, they're sweet. All right, Dougum and then on the OBR side John boner boys Oh, man, that's on Centaur does not do it for me Yeah, I agree at all just the design is just doesn't grip me Yeah, not a lot of exciting movement in it. Yeah age. He's very like Like when you take your key man, you just pull his arm. Yeah. Yeah, that's what he looked like Let's do that, but then give him two more legs in the butt. Okay, we're good. No, no, it's not doing it for me I actually liked the smaller guys. Yeah, I box better. Yeah, Scott. What did you think of any of those? So I made beef with Sylvaneth when they first came out They were mostly full-on tree people and there were like spite remnants that like things They were like half elf half tree and that's what I wanted out of wood elves for age I wanted like those blending of design elements I think if we're getting to this point now in a OS with Sylvaneth where there are enough of the like half elf half Tree people that you can make like a reasonable army. I'm just that stuff and aesthetically that would be exactly what I want What else to be in a OS? So I love seeing it and there was no more of it So yeah, it was good for me. Nice and then what's on let's catch up here We'll see actually talk about what's on-screen right now These fucking brethren. Oh my god, I love them. This was one of the weirdest reveals Yeah, yeah, but they're but they're the good guys so we got two forces here We've got FEC which are they described as like the elite chefs, which by the way these interviews That's what should have been. Yes, the elite chefs They collect cool body parts from the realms for the to feed for the feasts These are weirdo inspired lightning people who've all been struck by lightning They're gonna have a punch up Done wrong wrong wrong. Okay, so Let's get back to the figs The FEC dudes are pretty I thought like just whatever does anybody like impressed by the FEC The big bag is cool. The bag I was cool. Yeah, was it amazing, but it was cool. FEC pretty hard You know, yeah, exactly. It was just like yep. Okay. That's that thing at least I got weapons and stuff But yes, let's talk about the cities of Sigmar guys and they are all lunatic Sort of order of a easier flagellant like religious fanatics A famous enemy from hell in a ring, which is why I bring it up We've seen a little bit of that influence make more or less and who show wrong Okay, looks like you're like the first big boss from Elvin right now. I'm trying to say that this deal directly It's just like this is clearly like I can see the inspiration. Yeah, and it looks great This is the I think this might be the favorite Among ages sigmar folks of all of the models we saw tonight. I think this is probably gonna come away as the fan favorite Yeah, yeah, this was the The the the back story form is yes, they've all been struck by lightning in some way, right? They've all been hit by they've been struck by a smooth criminal. So Yeah, like they've all been hit by lighting and so now they feel like they're touched because they're lunatics great Can they're all one of them? That gets struck by lightning 66 times in the great orc doors starring John Candy, right? He's one of the guys on the squad Yeah, so so this was winter winter maw yet another thing I did I did manage to figure out the sort of pseudo sexual act That that one represents as well Okay, so now let's talk about this yeah, let's get to this one that the thing that just came up on screen So At the end of when we did our last story time Tyler I don't know if you watch the episode of the Tom and I did when we talk story time They tease this lady very much in the end of book five. They talk about how in Guy Rann There's this big storm and it's rolling down this peninsula and anybody who goes in there does not come back out Okay, and it's and there's yet somehow they have stories about what's in there So those two things don't work who's getting out to tell the stories. It doesn't make sense Anyways, they talked about like this big giant You know Flying woman who's like this terror and she's unbeatable in combat and yada yada yada, and that's her Abraxia So they described her Abraxia. She is the leader of the Varengard Archeons, you know sort of strong right hand and Scott, would you like to tell me a little bit about her spear? I couldn't catch any of it. Yeah. Yeah, they explained three times That her spear with scratches anything turns it into a chaos spawn and the reason she has horns is because she briefly lost focus While wielding the spear Through that mutation Yeah, that was explained three times in video and then twice Yeah, we only this part like they didn't re-explain everything else a million times So this is very important. They they re-explained her at her story Two to three times throughout the two the things it was insanity Rapid secession just like oh my god That being said, let's talk about what actually matters the model. She's gonna come in a box with three Varengard She'll have an army of renown. Yeah, that is her and basically Varengard the swords of Archeon Well, I think it's just called isn't that how slaves to darkness play right now, but Point taken um that model is Pretty freaking awesome. I think right like we're all we're all in the tank on this model Is anybody I can't wait to turn it into my non-slave to darkness army Her model itself is phenomenal. Yeah, I want a closer look at that mount. Yeah, I'm not sold on it on a first plant That's fair again. We didn't get the beauty shots of like rotating her seeing her in play Like it really bothers me because like we get these shots like you see on the screen right now where you know It's like okay. It's cool. It's the cool lighting and it's you know here amongst the other stuff But like I want to be able to like zoom in make the model big look at it understand the detail What are we actually looking at? How's the creature look does Devon derby face? Does it have any build options because you know they'll often do when they do the photo frames They'll do like the little cutouts of like this is head option one head option two and so on and so forth Right. We got none of that yet. Instead. We got I'm not gonna talk about it again After this video, there's gonna be individual articles more likely And so it's like will there be photos in there, maybe you can talk about this next week on the show But yeah, I hope so The pose was nice at the mount like sure it seemed more unique than a lot of the poses Yeah, it's kind of wrapping around. Yeah, it's a little bit of more like an extreme Lord on cracker cracker jack If the car contract was the chubby iguana, this is yeah And obviously they set up book six which is chaos unmount Hounds of chaos I had the ass in it in there Yeah, so book six is the the hounds of chaos and Yeah, like that's what's coming up right now. They're just gonna it's it's he's gonna talk about this story again We're gonna get the Abraxia story again with like a 50th time And you know, it's the two cities we know where they are and basically they're teasing that it's it's bringing You know that it's gonna open up a new thing in the mortal realms It's cuz Archeons on the move chaos is on the rise Yada yada yada one one shall stand one shall fall might throw away your life so recklessly prime and so on and so forth Okay They only showed the existing ones for now in the fight, but you know who knows I would imagine that could be a thing post launch We don't get it right away You know, I love how he said corgis is only like one One skull away from a demon becoming demon friends I'm like if corgis call in the story wanted to be it I have had derpy nobody characters become even princes in games by just rolling box cards on the eye of the gods acts are I'm 11 even on the eye of the gods accidentally like exalted champions of chaos. We're just like Yeah, exactly and so like I corgis call give me a break he could have been a demon prince 74,000 Times by now. He's like he killed like a continent in the story as a like a living continent as an offering to corn like, okay Okay, buddy. He's moving the goalpost. Yeah, corn's like I just one more. Just one more He's one of the very first corn bloodbound characters to come out for the first star Yeah, that's right. That's right He was it was him and that the the vandals is the good guy on the Dracula. I heard the track off Wow We call him Terry Tate just the office linebacker jokes. They're just like tackling people from off-screen just like moves up eight inches away Yeah, I mean, I'm interested to see what they do they talked about like the dark oath and them being used as pawns I'm excited for book six because it's even though the story's been pretty dumb It's just I want to see what happens with chaos But that then leads us to what everybody's actually here waiting for gentlemen Oh, yes There was an old world reveal it was for Dwarven mountain holds and like Legitimately a bunch of old derpy dwarfs that have been bad since they were printed originally because dwarfs generally look stupid and are bad and a new Plastic dwarf king on shield with shield bearers and that you shield bears on three shield bears Not the dude on the shields the other guy Okay, well that ungram iron fist model in the further for them was like he's mean Legitimately amazing Beautiful like and this is so I just gave you my opinion on dwarfs, right? Yeah, yeah, and like I just think most dwarf models look so derpy because they they sort of they suffer the worst from like the sort of old Hero syndrome thing they have these like big giant hands and big giant headbeards And they look like their bodies are about like this big like they're a head you just pretty cool But like obviously like legitimately ungram blew me away. That was I agree with you might have been the best model I Put him like on camera for more than like two seconds. Yeah, it was clean. It felt paintable. It was striking It was impressive. You got a sense of like his power from him like that's how you sculpt right there That's a good thing. What about his face though? I he had a shoulder on one side of his face And they had a helmet on and so it was lighter face It wasn't a lot of room to get in there. He does have a big helmet on too Yeah, I liked how much you could see I thought it was so he's kind of like a spark No, same same problem as we've been repeating. Yeah, but I Have a little bit of an issue, but we'll see we'll see you'll see that's fair. That's fair point. That's fair point Now we can get to the main event Okay Are we still good? Yes, and I said minor drops. Yeah, I I'm sorry, you know, there you go Uh, sorry guys, this is hotel internet. We have to deal with here. Sometimes it's real good Sometimes it's real bad. I bought the best internet I could here we go. Okay, it's still working All right, uh, let's talk about the bigger deal. Yes aos fourth edition Here we are Uh, we saw the ruination chamber the button has been pressed a new chamber has been opened Sigmar lied his lie. Okay It wasn't even that bad yet. We all knew that. Yeah, right. Yeah You're talking about the fact that their souls erode. Yes We know that was the thing they mentioned At the first book that was released in 2015. Yeah, this is not news, right? Yes. That was the story originally The malign line court narrative was yes. Yes Oh, was it okay to them as they you know, like we we thought we might eventually see these like guys guys versions don't cast like You know the opposite was they kind of hinted at that in the video right showing like the other side Yeah, which I mean maybe we'll get there eventually, but yeah, there was nothing I thought maybe like sigmar lied about their immortality, which I guess like they run out But no they just she like they just get more She showed up and she was like because her statement is sigmar lied. I'm basically I'm gonna paraphrase her statement was sigmar lied We lose some of ourselves. We're not true. We're like we're not immortal in the in the easy sense It's not all it's not all easy breezy beautiful cover girl But as long as I it's hard But as long as I stand I will fight and then they walk in and I'm like, okay. Well, she seems fine Like first of all I understand that I guess form cast is supposed to be a Sort of a parallel for actual soldiers who serve in repeated battles and like the PTSD and where and the dehumanization that war has Right. Sure. Just told through this like immortal lightning god story where when you die you shoot up and come back down or whatever Right, but that's like that's largely the story What should be happening to everybody in the mortal realms who goes to a ton of battle they become dehumanized To human and they become more human over time As they grow as people in storm cast they start as human and over time they become like the solace of tomata And I like that cut away where it's like it's not just her it's like when she uh, the the storm cast protagonist She dies as like a just like a normal barbarian warrior Yeah, you see like and it's her dead face on the ground and then we cut to her as like and her eyes are like stars Yeah, I like how we saw her progress like did you catch that? She was like a liberator the first time or whatever like an indicator vindictor. Sorry And she was like uh Annihilator. Yeah, she went through all the starter sets. That was pretty great She eventually she's like she looks like a lord celestine than the last right. Yeah, I think she's gonna be like the foot It's I I'm sure we could pick apart for like another half hour of what units were seen in there Sure Which was interesting and I did like the whole thing about how the scaven are not just coming out of knoll holes It looks like they're bringing the city of scaven blight. Yeah, what they call that like the something doom like the I Yeah, there's something doom. So like yeah, let me let me let's let's give the the quick story here So basic thing is scaven erupt their entire massive city into the middle of the great parks Which is like where the home of hammer hall and many other important cities of the city of sigmar are They break and this isn't just like a small thing that pops up. They erupt the ground They do this in multiple planes is what they were implying right then like cities massive massive massive Scaven holds in this like doom something pop up out of the ground like literally burrow up And then his direct quote was billions of rats flood out, right? Yeah And they are I do appreciate that they're keeping scaven's comedy at the same time like the claw lord Who's mount gets clubbed and he jumps off and he's like, all right. Bye Um, we got to see the new rattling cannon gun Rolling doom thing that was rattling gun in the thing, but he could be mistaken. So yeah Yeah, we saw the the big giant rattling gun in the video So yeah, like so if if this follows what we didn't see so just so y'all know I know you haven't gotten to this point the video yet. We're ahead of you We're talking ahead of what's in the video right now. This is the northern stuff What people want to see young them here in a minute um But for like people who want to who want to see this when you watch it you don't expect to see any models there was Zero a full zero models revealed for aos 4.0. We should just say that right out of the gate. Okay Zero models now we can infer logically that we'll get the new ruination chamber And we'll have those new ruination troops that came down with their big shields and like the thunders strike armor We'll have the new scaven gun. We'll get new gizales. You saw a new looking rat ogre Right. So like it's easy to imagine those will be your resculpts because that was basically what happened with 10th edition They showed the video Last year two models for 10th edition. I know they did. Yeah, they last year They actually showed mom when that beacon hits the ground and it's like bleep Bleep and it's quiet and then just like You know the the terminators teleport in and that dude just like It's just like wall bullets, right it goes out and just starts shredding Tearing it's not even like space beings or 40k, but I was like, oh, holy Bad stuff right here They can do they can cut a trailer they can do bullet born a lot better. They can do anime fight sequence It's that's what they need to do for age of sigmar. Yes, it should be much more anime fight sequence So but at any rate we saw no models, but you know, it's easy to imagine Okay clan rats claw lord clearly the claw lord on brood monster. We'll be back. We'll get re-sculpted because you saw him We saw the new thunders strike collaborators. Yep. So the new thunders strike braiders understrike Prosecutors the angel you know angels have been clamoring for yes, we saw at chocobo Yeah So yeah, it looked like a drakoff, but it had the head of Zangor basically very avian head. Yeah, I thought it was a Zangor for a minute and then they zoomed out and I was like, oh, okay Yeah, it's just a crow's head. Well, I think it's supposed to be something like Like analogy because it's like we saw zangor at the beginning of the trailer Like I think it's like supposed to be some similar species or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, so I'm very excited for those rewination troops that follow. Um, they're like like look like freighters or something like that I'm sure they'll have the name name storm cast name name They show us basically an equivalent of new paladins. I I would yes. That was the guys behind her. Okay. Yeah, I can't I thought I saw something like look they almost look like annihilators. Yeah, but Annihilators with capes Yes, I will paint a unit of three of those for capital palette. I'll say that much sure So, you know, like we got that and then they talked a little about fourth edition and they move over to it Things that were confirmed. Let's let's just hit the for everyone here watching Let's talk things that were confirmed for fourth edition. Number one They are going to what we are getting indexed as we have said So completely new war scrolls for every unit and every faction in the game That have all been rebalanced from the ground up like everything like numbers Points not to everything like completely crushed to zero and re And redone Right from the ground up. So like don't expect anything to look like it is He specifically said a bunch of rules had been cut that weren't needed to need to be there And they focused in on the rules that make the units feel like they should and then everything fits on like the one One one one one war scroll sheet one war scroll sheet Everything is just there and a key reason for that is the next private changes is the universal rules That's right. Yeah, so moving to a usr system. I am nervous about that But we'll see if the usr system is is extremely constrained i.e. Less than 20 Okay, okay. That's interesting. You want to be less. Correct. It has to be less explain why okay universal special rules are Time-saving tools. They are shortcuts, right, but they are also Things that hide information Okay, so when you look at your game piece if your game which in this case is your worst role, right If your game piece has all the information you need to play that thing on it Assuming you understand the very core rules of the game. Like what does it mean to fight or shoot or something like that? Right to roll a die Then you can play the game the more keywords you use like this is one of my problems in the old world The old world has something like 90 some bajillion Usr's okay, those aren't universal anymore because there's so many and some of this matroshka Of of of rules and the problem is all that's very opaque, right because you have to go wait What does this thing do right and so you have to stop reading the game piece? You're trying to use right. I have my scroll. I want to make a tax with it But I don't know how because all it says on my my Uh all it says on my scroll is Jibba jabba, okay, so then I have to go stop set that down pick up the normal book Flip flip flip flip find jibba jabba read what jibba jabba does Figure it out get got it Close the book put it down pick back up this roll and then do my thing right So it's an interruption whereas if the rules are printed on there and it says jibba jabba means roll to extra dice when this thing happens I just go, okay Right, but if you have a small constraint set say less than 20 and they're only the most sort of common occurrences like I don't know 60 hit is a mortal one. That's like a super common thing across workforce in aos, right? So I could imagine them turning that into a universal special if If that's a thing and it's like a small list of those types of things that I completely support Because and the examples he gave was like a standard bearer and a musician and a champion all become just rules Which I assume that means those will all be standardized too No more like oh this guy's musician does this thing and this guy's musician does this thing It's just you have a musician. It means this so great good fine, then I support it completely Right, it's like in magic You can print first strike or trample on a card and I don't need to pull those sticks because it's so vanilla We all know what it is, but if you print connive on a card Okay, we gotta give me the text And all right Okay, so we got that confirmation Uh, it will be its own box. Yeah spearhead. They said something about like a spearhead box that has everything in there I assume you said rules for all the factions. I assume we'll also probably have the rules for all the spearheads For free because they did also confirm that all of the all the indices all the index rules would be free So if they're going to do that if they're going to give you the rules for All the main game, I assume they'll give you the rules for the spearhead units as well So people can do that they reference a board with two different One a different board different realm on each side. Yeah, that's cool Like yeah, it's part of the box. I know you're excited about it. It's like thousand point games. I am. Yeah Having dis did like an escalation campaign where actually some of my most fun games for some of the smaller ones Strangely, I don't know why that happened. I'm excited for a more intentional and balanced version of that game And they made mention of like tactical cards that could be played and stuff like that. Yeah, that sounds pretty cool Yep Obviously made me think is that a herald of a updated or new secondary objective system And which they did not talk about for for the edition itself Bp outside of objective control, right? Okay. Well, he mentioned cards as part of spearhead. Yeah Yeah, so he said something about cards as part of spearhead, but you know spearhead will just be the vanguard Boxes like as we all I mean we know that because they've already started they've already started releasing products with that branding So like obviously that'll just be your pre-con commander deck build as we've said it's your on ramp cool, I Fully supportive of this Like yes good Do you think it's just going to be an on ramp thing or it's it's not going to be a legitimate way that No, I think it's going to be a legitimate way to play too I think their goal is to have both to be able to go broad or to be able to go deep So so what I mean by that is like for some people I don't know what they'll want to do is like They start with a spearhead They play spearhead games and then like, you know what? I'm going to naturally move up to 1,000 point games 1500 my games 2000 my games like build up my army that's going deep That's going deep. Okay. I think there's some people who will really like spearhead and will be like I'm just going to pick up another spearhead box and paint that and we'll just keep playing spearhead games Right, and I think that's so that would be going broad, right? So instead like you just buy other spearheads and keep trying it because I'm sure some of the armies will have like Fault for armies that are really big Yeah, the asset test for me is this this is something that Would actually get a lot of traction with rtt's around the country or around the around the world, right? One day events doing the spearhead events. I think if we could get that point, that would be, you know If it's good enough for that that would be amazing. I'm a little hesitant about that It's depicon 2024 10th edition came out last year. Are there any 40k? I don't know. Yeah, it's like Yeah, you might be right. They're good for new players I don't know if it's there's going to be necessary Does there need to be events for and I think those are all conversations we can have Yes more information comes out Yeah, because if we know anything from how they like to release their stuff and keep traffic coming to the Website every monday, they're probably going to show a new unit For this box like a different 40k. Hopefully we can hope I'm only basing it off of what we know from 10th edition, but they'll probably also as we get closer have more information About every aspect of it including spearhead and what that means for playing it out of the box So we've got the vanguard boxes, but didn't they release a box called spearhead recently? Yeah, those are saying yes The new ones are actually called spearhead, right? The new ones they're releasing. I just wonder if the vanguard boxes are going to be essentially Yes spearhead boxes. I'm sure they'll be. Yes. I'm sure they are and they'll just be rebranded Maybe they'll change contents here or there who knows, you know Yeah But yeah, and then did was there anything else we missed from the the fourth ed rules they confirmed free rules spearhead Combat range. Yeah, re melee reach is dead. Your combat range is just three inches now Everyone on everybody just that's how it is and they were going to be color coding abilities. Oh my gosh. Yeah What made me think of that is in 40k? A lot of sub factions have different command abilities or in their casers radigems And they're color coded by how much they cost So I was I was thinking about 40k when they said something like that Yeah, I'm not sure how that's going to work. We're not used to color coding in the graphic design of age of sigmar at all So it's interesting to see that being included at least from a graphic design perspective. I think it's a great idea I agree fully support any kind of user experience ease like that like hey all of this color is your Shooting stuff or whatever like I don't know. You know, whatever it is. Like yeah, that's that's great Like please please do that. That sounds like anything that makes it easier to add a glance find the rules you want Thumbs up big thumbs up for me Like I think they haven't invested in the past enough in like actual user experience in their books They made them they made them look pretty, but there's a difference between pretty and usable Right and so actually investing in usability is like it's a really important thing. Sure You mentioned a little events, but matt matt rose who emphasized that In his words, this was the first opportunity since the original launch of a west to get in And look at this from the ground floor sort of from first principles, right? And so he more or less was conveying that this is going to be a sizable update But he's also emphasizing That what sounded like they're making they've made a strong effort to reduce the complexity of the game, which we've talked about So god damn much on the show right over the last year plus you've talked about as well Like this game is just I think insane with the level of complexity that it's hit a lot takes to play the game Talking points. Yeah, so many gotcha moments like in this game Or like what feel like gotcha moments because you don't have a comprehensive encyclical understanding of everything that's going on Yeah, it's crazy. So I was really encouraged by that. I'm hoping that will actually come through Let's uh, let me let me let me answer a couple comments here because there's people asking about stuff Uh, you know, no moosto said everything melee has a reach of three inches We're ready for double reinforced dead walker zombies Una there it's going to be completely new scroll for zombies. So who knows that could be perfectly fine You assume things can still be double reinforced. I don't know that all the rules are potentially up for changing So like it does reinforcement exist. Does double reinforcement exist. Is that even a thing? Right, like don't assume facts not evidence Don't don't put those things on to like what we know is what we know but don't try to apply that to the current rule set because Literally everything could change underneath you as far as the foundation Ben Ben Johnson alluded to um entire stat changes. Yeah. Yeah, they said they're completely they said they rewrote every worst wall Yeah, I mean like they they they're like how we conceive of stats. Yeah. Yeah, could be different. Yeah, right, right Um, and then let's see Dougie fresh it how will index rules work like no sub factions faction spells traits artifact sounds bland I don't know Uh, I have no answer. They didn't say they just said they're going to get new rules My guess is you're not talking about a super bland thing. My guess is you're probably talking about like You know a set of Playable rules probably with a with a way to go like with a way to play the thing Um, should it'll feel with options and stuff like that. This has happened to um, If 40k more than once sure and we got this after a fashion with a just sigmar second edition as well And like they tried to just keep as much flavor as possible in the units as well as in the army abilities Which are available at launch. So I'm sure it's going to be less than blend. Yeah, I'm gonna go then Well, people are still playing 40k 10th edition. So I think that's gonna be okay. Well, like for the second edition of me I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah I mean, I'm right. There's an easy critique of this but I'm sure capitalism is gonna Capitalize Anyway, like sure like yeah, yeah, yeah, I get all like it's their business model Personally, I do think this is needed in many ways. Like this it sucks, but it's needed. Yeah Throwing away all the books and starting with a new index. Oh, okay. So it's encouraging the reverse of a code x or a new book Yeah, okay. So like ultimately Like I know and people who are super down on indexes and says it's gonna be busted I don't know that. I also don't think it's gonna be great. I don't know what it's gonna be I have played this game now for 26 27 years And I have seen many an index time where where things were reset Sometimes it was very fun and very good and generally actually led to good play experiences Sometimes it was very bad and horribly imbalanced It depends on the work that the team did in getting to that point and how much they were allowed to invest in things like play testing What I do know is that for the first time ever they have a formal qa position formal developers doing development work They have a lot of internal play testing and a lot more rigor to their process than they ever have before We have matt rose who I think is an incredibly talented Uh designer and incredibly great person in charge of that studio. So I have more hope Then I ever have at a change point like this Uh because the evidence right is this is the we've said this a lot, but it has increasingly been true Right now. This is the best ecosystem the best environment that we've the most balanced environment that we've ever had So if we can do that thing if we can simplify things down if we can make it a more accessible play experience And not lose the heart and soul of it then what's going on then you're going to be successful, right? So I mean I'm not going to assume any facts not evidence. I'm glad we're getting indexed I think it's actually the thing that needed to happen I want to see scrolls rewritten. I wanted to see changes like that combat range Because piling in and all these little techy moves and stuff like that is where I hate that kind of play Right where it's like, oh I won because I happen to know how to like exactly daisy chain my unit to get the maximum Use your abilities. Well, right did you whatever, you know Those are the things that should be skill testing about this game using your units using your game pieces in the best way possible This is why you and I love magic so much because You and I both know that the difference between a player who wins and a player who loses in most games is who uses their limited resources Correctly. Yeah, that's right. Who makes better trades who makes better choices. That's how the game should work And so the more it works like that the better um and so, you know like All in all, I'm I'm excited about it. I think it's you know, I We'll see I'm obviously excited for a bunch of new scaven now for please god's sake Go down the description to pick up all your monument hobbies with the affiliate codes for me. There you go. How about that? Don't use john's affiliate code. That's crap. Use mine. Um, all right, so All right, final thoughts here. Let's close this up Tyler Yeah, you you said it well for going along. So I think you summarized well. I'm excited as well I'm on the fourth edition. We needed this. So yeah fingers crossed Same. All right. Yeah Marty, will this be the addition I paint more than one storm cast model I only painted one for all of third edition. So yeah, I'm excited, but I'd like to see new storm cast models, please Oh, here we go. Here we we finally we're gonna end as that cool trailer is playing with her So yeah, we'll let the video play while we go here. Scott. What do you want? What's your final thoughts? I think ruination chamber is a sexy name for a chamber. It is We've been excited about it since we first like this showed up on a on a uh image in like 2015 2016 I think it sounds cool in the chambers. We were like, what is this? I want this one and I think this is maybe the best time to start playing age sigmar like when this comes out Maybe yeah John uh For the first time in my age of sigmar career. I will be starting an army. That's math death The rats are coming Absolutely very excited for scaven. I wish we saw more. Please never do a preview in this format again It was absolute torture. I cannot I am going to file a complaint with the you have violated the Geneva convention There will be a charges brought in the hang Okay For this that that has been done a war crime has been committed But I do want to say thank you to everybody all the like gw people who put all the work into this like The the the choice was bad, but everybody worked really really hard. So all the community people all Matt and phil and everybody who did all the interviews and sat down and put all this work into it All the unseen editors who had to put countless amounts of hours into editing all this stuff the real heroes Yes, all those people did amazing like this stuff was great. It just was a terrible format Now that great for going to warmer community dot com and watching that stuff for youtube and watching that stuff Not sitting in a room for an hour. Yes, exactly. Yeah Uh, so there you go, uh, you know, this trailer is really cool here It's going to watch the scaven. Uh, I do love this little dude getting speared and picked up in the sky. That's fun Yeah, the new prosecutors that do drop here's our new little thing the fun moment here Let's just let's just all live react to this fun trailer we watched here for the last 10 seconds of this video Uh, a little bit dude getting shot that dude just got plowed by that thing. Yeah, he gets rocked from a logic story Boom just clocks that dude in the head. Yeah, here you go Here's the local or just like nope. Bye. It's just I'm just out of there. Peace out. There were a lot of good moments in the video about that Yeah, you were saying about the 4k one. Yeah, I just I thought the 40k one was better directed It had an actual story like a beginning middle and and yes, um, it had more dialogue in it Which was or rather the the monologue was longer than this Yes, it was probably it was made by the same people like it's in the same art style But clearly it's like a lot more I don't want to say effort because that would imply less effort went here But I think a lot smarter direction went into the 40k one. I agree So at any rate sigmar's lie was a lie. We knew all along and all the stormcast actually no It's not anything surprising. It's the fact that yes, there's humanity wears away We all know that thank you and yes gave in our back, but we haven't seen any models for anything. So There we go summer 2024 More information. I'm sure we'll be coming. We'll be talking about it We'll be covering it for all of you out there who watch this. Thank you Very much tyler marty scott john Thank you all so much for making this a big reveal show all five of us just sitting in here in my hotel room Thank you to the crappy hotel internet for saying almost stable the entire time And uh for all of you out there Thank you so much for watching Support the channel hit like share this do all those things click things that make dings You can find all the stuff down below all the affiliate links. I mentioned all that's very appreciated But uh for now it's late. I'm tired. Uh, I'm I'm beat from this this uh This sycophia and torture. I just went through and I'll say we'll see

So our next presentation is the key extraction using thermal laser Stimulation a case study on the Xilinx ultra-scale FPGAs and this was authored by Heiko Laker, Shahin Tajik, Thilo Krakkenfels, Christian Bolt and Jean-Pierre Seifert and we'll be presented by both Heiko Laker and Shahin Tajik. Okay. 600 seats here, so nobody should have to stand, but maybe make sure that if there's an empty space next to you compress that you have more places for people to get in and actually sit down. There are lots of people in the back who by now probably have sore legs, but there's no reason for that. We have plenty open seats here. Okay. Thanks for the introduction. I'm Heiko Laker. I will give the first part of this talk and then later Shahin will give the second part and we'll actually talk about the case study that we did using a technique called thermal laser stimulation to extract keys from FPGAs and I will first give some background. Now on FPGAs you start the device by configuring it and if implemented something on your FPGA usually that contains IP or other secrets that you want to hide from an attacker. So since the FPGA has to load that data when it boots or when it starts and attacker could actually eavesdrop on that communication because it's loaded externally and the solution to that is bitstream encryption which is what I will now give you a quick background about. So bitstream encryption works in the following way. You generate a key and this key is then transferred into the FPGA into some sort of key memory and in the case of the board that we've used there are two options to save the key eFuses, which we will not discuss and BB RAM which is short for battery backup SRAM. So that's a very low power SRAM that uses a backup battery to keep the key in memory when the device is powered off. So then you have your key in the FPGA and then you take your design which you want to protect. You also encrypt it in the trusted field and then you put this encrypted configuration file into non-volatile memory and then in the untrusted field you can start your board. The FPGA will load the data, the encrypted bitstream data from non-volatile memory, will decrypt it and then it can use the plaintext bitstream to configure itself and then it will boot your implementation or run your implementation or whatever you wanted to put on your FPGA. Now what we will be looking at is this key storage and we will use thermal laser stimulation, which is a technique which is used in failure analysis usually. Thermal laser stimulation works in the following way. So the idea is that you use a laser that has mainly thermal interaction. So in this case 1.3 micrometer wavelength and you scan the silicon die of your chip in a setup similar to this. So this is the silicon surface and then use your laser to scan over this device and this will introduce localized heating into the structures inside the silicon die. Now at the same time you have your power supply and you measure your current that is drawn by the power supply. Now the laser beam will actually influence stuff like your leakage current and similar parameters in your device and you can then measure that and if you are sampling and this current amplifier generates a voltage signal from the current consumption of your device while you are scanning your device with laser. So this allows you to later use the sample so that you have acquired synchronously with the laser scanning process and then that will give you a 2D map of the reaction of this device to the laser stimulation and that is what we call a stimulation response map. Now how can you use this simulation response map to read out SRAM cells? As I said the key memory is just a low-power SRAM with a battery backup. For that we first need to understand how a single transistor behaves under thermal laser stimulation. Now this is a cross-section of a MOSFET transistor. We are using in this case a laser beam to heat the drain as an example of the transistor and this will create a thermal gradient and because of the dissimilar materials you will get an effect that will generate a C-back voltage and if this transistor is on you have a conducting channel here and the C-back voltage will generate a voltage source here. So you will basically get a voltage source which is connected between drain and source of the transistor in the moment where you hit it with the laser. Now for an SRAM cell the basic memory element of an SRAM cell is a cross-coupled inverter which consists of four transistors and to explain this process on the SRAM cell I will first start with a simpler example which is just two inverters. So assume we have a high input here that means this PMOS transistor is off and this NMOS transistor is on and then this will pull this output to ground. But if we shine the laser on this transistor we will generate a small voltage here which will influence the output voltage and this output voltage is connected to the next inverter and because the output voltage changes the gate input of these two transistors changes this transistor is already on there's not much happening here, but this transistor is off and now we slightly increase the gate voltage using the thermal laser stimulation, so this means this transistor turns on very slightly and since we have supply voltage here already an on transistor here and now a transistor that is coming on just a little that is decreasing its resistance just a little bit we get a leakage path from here to ground. So if we hit this transistor, we will see an increase in current consumption or in leakage current. Now to get an SRAM cell to get a cross-coupled inverter for the memory element of an SRAM cell you just connect this output to this input and then you can see that the cell will keep one of two states and that is how you save a bit and that will then just looks like this. So this is basically the same circuit just with the output connected to the input and this is a situation that I've just explained. If you stimulate this part you will influence this transistor and get a leakage current here but because the cell is symmetrical you will have the same here. If you stimulate this transistor, you influence this output, then you will get a small leakage current through the left side of this cross-coupled inverter. Now the interesting thing is if you change the bit in this cell, all transistors will switch their state. So this will mean that these sensitive spots will also switch their position. So if you scan this bit state, if you scan this cell with this bit set you will see if you hit these transistors you will see an increase in current consumption and if you grayscale and quote your stimulation response map you would expect something that has like an increased current in the top right and bottom left corner and these two corners will just not react to the stimulation. But now if you switch your bit state, all the transistors switch to their inverted state so this also means that your stimulation response map will change to its inverted state. So if you take a look at the thermal laser stimulation response map you can from the pattern deduce which bits are saved in this memory cell. We then use this to read out, we will try to use this to read out the SRAM memory that stores the key. Now for our experimental setup we used an AFNAT Kintax Ultra Scale Development Board. The Ultra Scale FPGA is built in 20 nanometer technology and as you can see here it's a flip chip with an exposed silicon die so there's no preparation necessary. We just soldered a connection to the backup battery and then for the laser part we use a Hamamatsu FEMOS with 1.3 micrometers and the setup is like this. We have a laser scanner which moves the laser beam over the BB RAM over the key memory and then at the same time we measure the current consumption at the backup battery port and we do this while the FPGA is powered off. So the key memory is only supplied by the backup battery which we have replaced with this current amplifier and this then allows us to measure the current consumption during laser stimulation and we acquire this simultaneously with the scanning process and then that will give us the 2D map and now Shain will present the results. Thank you. So now let's take a look first at the Xilin Kintax Ultra Scale chip in its package. So as you can see in the picture, it's a flip chip as Haiko mentioned so basically that means that we have access to the silicon on the backside of the chip directly so we don't really need to do any polishing or tinning which means if you if you put this flip chip package under our laser scanning microscope with the 1.3 micrometer laser we directly can get a reflected image like this that the whole die from the backside and the whole active region is visible to us. So now the question is where we should search for the key so where is the BB-RAM that is actually our main target. If you look more closely, you can see that we have a lot of regular structures on this die which are actually related to the configuration logic blocks of the FBGA and on the bottom part which we highlighted with the red line you see some irregular structure and if you check it with the fellow planner in the Xilin IDE software you can assume that this area is actually related to the configuration logic which is responsible for decryption for authentication and for distributing the bitters stream all over the FBGA. Now let's zoom in this area and we see this. So still we don't know where the memory is where the memory is or where the key storage is, where the AES is and so on so in this case we are interested only for the BB-RAM now we are starting our experiment with the laser stimulation and we take a look to see how this area reacts to our you know the stimulation experiments. So after stimulating with the laser you see that two structures we highlighted them with yellow color. They are reacting to our stimulation. So basically what we have done, the lasers scan this area and we monitor the changes in the current on the battery line and only these two structures when the laser hits these two structures we see changes on the battery line. Now let's zoom. So in the first experiment actually we set a random key inside the BB-RAM and then we did our laser stimulation experiment. Again we see these two structures and then in the second phase we have deactivated the BB-RAM so the right structure goes off. So and then so from this we understood okay the right structure should be the battery background which we are searching for and please note that in all of our experiments the FBGA was powered off. So we just need to stimulate and then measure the current changes on the battery line. Now let's take a look at the BB-RAM itself. So I should mention that this is not a reflected image. Basically this pattern that you see is the changes on the current on the battery line which we mapped to a 2D pattern, right? So it looks like an image, but it's it's actually the changes in the current on the power line and so the bright areas are the areas on the configuration and in the BB-RAM which are reacting to the laser stimulation. So actually you see from still from this pattern we can see that from geometrical shapes we can read out the memory content, but we still don't know how the physical address versus logical address looks like on this. So therefore we did a few experiments for example one of them we as you see on the right side we have programmed one of the beats as BB-RAM to one and then we shifted it eight times. So then we measured eight times also and then we created this animation as you can see the the beat is moving from left to the right. So and we found out that physical address and logical address are actually the same on this device. Another experiment we set all the beats of the BB-RAM to one and zero and as you can see so almost all cells are changing so they the pattern will be changed. Now the question is is it possible to get a real I mean with with with our eyes visually we can we can extract the content but can we do it automatically and the answer is yes. So basically what we need to do we need only to have on the bottom reference image where you you have a BB-RAM with a zeroized key so every beats are set to zero and then you have you get a pattern from your TLX experiment which which has which contains your target key so and then what you need to do you need to subtract them so we developed a Python image processing tool that it does that for us and automatically you can recover the key the 256 bit key which is used for a yes to decrypt the bit of stream. Now I would like to conclude the talk I would like to mention that the required effort for the attack development was less than seven hours which was also surprising to us it was really low and I should mention that this attack is not I mean this was a case study on Xilinx chips but this is applicable also to other S&M-based FPGAs like you know Intel FPGAs which they use as also BB-RAM in principle it's it can be also applied to to any SRAM but we haven't tried that yet but for example if you have for example another FPGA with SRAM path or something like that so it's in principle it should work another thing is that I would that I would like to mention is this attack as you can imagine is much cheaper than other optical attacks that has been already proposed in literature like optical contactless probing or like photon emission which is make which makes this attack even more threatening and we should we should consider it really carefully so and the other the third thing is actually as I mentioned in all of our experiments the FPGA was powered off which means already implemented side-channel content measures or the during configuration or during runtime it cannot help so we need to come up with some new solutions which works also when the FPGA or when the chip is powered off and it should also work actually with I mean if we have some content measure circuit it should be able to work with a battery without draining too much power power from that thank you for your attention any questions so yeah thank you very much for the excellent talk and just for clarification and did I get that correctly you did not decapulate decapsulate no we didn't if you have a modern flip chip device that's also a question we get a lot this is already the silicon oh so it was like that before like on older CPUs maybe some of you remember that it already looked like this but I also didn't know for before I came to this field that this is actually the silicon and then you just laser engrave your mark markings into the silicon and that's why you can actually still see them here yeah okay and then my other question isn't your laser spot quite large relatively to the structures that you're heating up isn't that a problem the this is 20 nanometer technology but that is also I think most people who do design know but 20 nanometer like a common misconception for people who not do design is 20 nanometer doesn't mean that your transistors are 20 nanometers the transistors are as large as the designer chooses them to be and that depends on what the transistors have to do and in this case we have one micron resolution and the cells are large enough to be analyzed with that although it's 20 nanometer technology so you can see here that's 40 micrometers so these cells are something like two or three micron squared and that is because but it's also a design constraint because this has to be low power it has to operate on a battery for 10 years you can't do like minimum size SRAM cells for that because they will leak and then yeah so you didn't have any problems that you're heating more than one cell no I mean you can actually like these are individual cells right this is one cell and you can see that we even have some headroom okay okay excellent thank you so quick question I had a question here so for this particular packaging you didn't have any thermal interface material on the top to spread the heat like normally you know in many devices you will have some kind of a thermal spreader you mean like like a heatsink yeah right and I guess your question is if that would be a problem if we had that yeah yeah like we didn't have it in this case because we need to get the laser in but that is also not a problem because you have to remember when we're doing this attack the device is completely powered off so that it can't generate any heat if it's powered off the only thing that is on is the battery to supply the SRAM so you're free to remove the heatsink okay that's great thanks thank the speaker again

Is it just me, or have you noticed that it seems like men seem more non-committal than ever before? In fact, some men are just scared of commitment altogether. That's for the thumbnail. And I thought it'd be important to do a deep dive into this, especially because I believe there's significant number of men who genuinely like a person, and yet they're afraid to go into deeper intimacy. They're afraid to go into deeper commitment. And I think it's important to kind of not just explore this, but unpack it to give you some context of maybe how you might approach the process, especially the dating marketplace process from a different sense of awareness, because it occurs to me that if we go into the process very cavalier, very naive without a bit of... I don't want to be defensive or from a fear base, but be a little bit more cautionary. And let me reframe that. Let's take out the word cautionary. A little bit more discerning. You might be less likely to be influenced by those men that come on strong, that love bomb, that seem like you're the most perfect person in the world. And then all of a sudden, shortly after being physically intimate with a man, all of a sudden he says he's not ready for a relationship. And I think first you need to understand why this happens. And I am so guilty of being a love bomber. I'm so guilty of coming on strong because when there is a strong connection with someone, a physical attraction, there are chemicals being released from the brain into a man's body. And this is true for women as well. That's why it's called chemistry. Chemistry comes from the word chemical, right? So we talk about chemistry, it's because chemicals are being released from our brain into our body, saying that we like this person, we like this person, we like this person. I don't know how many times in the early stages after my divorce I would meet someone and quite frankly, you know, it's interesting. I'm going to go on a tangent here like I always do. You know, prior to my divorce, it felt like it was much harder to meet people and then you get access to these little devices, actually, or maybe just the dating sites. And all of a sudden there's a plethora of people to choose from. So you meet someone, or at least I met someone, I felt like a strong connection for them. For whatever reason, I certainly came on strong. I envisioned a life with them. Literally on a first date, it could be that chemical is such a drug that it's like the dopamine, the oxytocin, the testosterone, the serotonin, all those chemicals being released, all of a sudden you just feel like you really, really like someone. And then after you physically intimate with them, all of a sudden you're asking yourself, why don't I like this person anymore? And the natural reaction is to run away because we don't, most men don't want to make a promise they can't keep to someone. We don't do this intentionally. We don't do this from a disingenuous place. It's just this is a biological component of feeling that level of excitement. And yet I think we need to dig even past this because, yes, we can control our urges. There's no doubt about it. And I know women have that capacity and certainly have that capacity as well. So one thing you need to recognize about men are men are the gas. And ladies, you are the, you are the brakes. Okay. And being the brakes means to not judge men as being bad for the, for that by all biological desire to be intimate, intimate, because I'm assuming when you're in a relationship with a guy, you're going to want him to be physically intimate with you. Don't look at it bad. It's just understand that that's the way we're hardwired. All right. I know you're pissed off already. But what's missing these days, I think, is that level or desire to be in a committed relationship? Why is this occurring? Why are men scared? You know, especially when they like a person, why is that? Well, let's think about this for a moment. Now, just as a reminder, my audience is the midlife group, which is after baby making years and before retirement. So there's a good chance roughly about 75% of people over 45 years old are divorced. And with divorce comes an emotional unraveling of the tapestry of one's life. And it could be cause fear or resistance to want to commit to someone else, especially if a guy or woman felt like they got burned in their marriage, whether they felt they got used in their marriage, whether they weren't appreciating their marriage. It already builds up some resistance to want to lean into something deeper. You know, I brought out my book, and I think it's important to recognize this, is the other thing that happens for most men at midlife is you've heard of midlife crisis. The midlife crisis is when the blueprint of where you thought your life was, was supposed to be collides with your reality. Boom. And it can be an emotional, Mazel tov, Mazel tov cocktail, Molotov cocktail, fossil tov cocktail. That was funny, Jonathan. A Molotov cocktail going off inside a person, particularly men, because we are so goal driven and goal oriented and career oriented that if something, if the calamity happens in our life, where we thought we were going to be, could really cause an inner explosion. And in that, a lot of fear is built up. Now, if we trace this back to childhood, there's, by the way, folks, you know I'm a big proponent of examining our childhood to see why we make the choices we do in a relationship. And I know you've witnessed many men enter into relationships with women and you're thinking themselves, what are they doing with that person? Why are they choosing that person? This is why I think it's important to read two particular books. And that is the book attached by Amir Levine and Rachel Heller. I've got my notes in there, attached here. So you can understand why you might be attached to a guy who is noncommittal. There's a good chance he might be someone like your father. And this book, Getting the Love You Want by Harvelle Hendricks and Helen Hunt, talks about what's known as the Amago. I am a G.O., which means mirrored. Why we choose people oftentimes like one or both of our parents because we individually are trying to heal a wound that's happened in our lives. So it seems to me these days, and like I said, the dating marketplace, we've adopted a protocol, if you will, of all that is necessary to progress a relationship to a physical level is just the desire to say, I want a relationship. Simply to say, I want a relationship. And to many women, they hear that this person might want a fully committed relationship. I think, really, let's examine the word relationship because I have a relationship with my children. I have a relationship with my friends. I have a relationship with the barista at the coffee shop. I have a relationship with them. So relationship can have different meanings to different people. And I think in the romantic sense, there's a lot of confusion of what a relationship is. And then ultimately, what is desired from this relationship? What is desired from this relationship? Is it commitment? Is it to partner with someone? Is that the desire? Or is it just about spending time with someone? Most of you know my chart on the three types of people actively dating today. There are the users, the spenders and the growers and builders. And the users are simply those people that are in it for the short run, in it for themselves. Those are the love bombers. Those are the entitled people. Those are the gold diggers. They're only in it for themselves. They're using people. And by the way, let me go back to this chart. This is not a fact. This is merely an opinion. I say the percentages are 20, 60 and 20. Well, I say 20% are users and 20% are growers and builders. These are the people. These are the men who genuinely want to be in a committed relationship. Now, sadly, you reject a lot of these guys because they don't fit your type. They don't fit your desire on a multiple levels. So a lot of the growers are being dismissed by women. And by the way, men dismiss women all the time as well based on physical characteristics, physical looks. And women tend to dismiss men based on their physical looks as well as their financial status. What I'm talking right now about the spenders is because they represent about 60% of the single population today. Spenders are people that want companionship, want connection. They want sex. And yet they're non-committal. They don't have a direction. They don't know what they want. And so here's the tricky part. You have a basically six out of 10 chance of meeting one of these guys. This is a guy who genuinely might like you. And yet he doesn't know what he wants. And I think the way to circumvent this, not circumvent this, to approach this from a different perspective, is you're going to have to learn how to ask better questions in the early stage of dating and specifically to your personality, what those questions might be. In addition, you have to be a bit of a detective to determine his emotional maturity, his capacity to lean into a relationship. The challenge for most of you haven't been taught this. Nobody teaches this. You literally have to be a detective. In fact, that's one of the reasons why I began my private coaching. By the way, there's a link in the description below to schedule a free discovery call with me. What do I do? I teach you to get crystal clear on who you are and what you want. And I hear from women all the time. Jonathan, I know what I want. I know what I want. I know what I want. It fascinates me because they all seem to say that. And then they go through my proprietary coaching program. And at the end, can you guess what they say every single time? I didn't know what I wanted. Why didn't they teach me this in school? Why didn't my parents teach me this? Why didn't I learn this before I dated or married the wrong person? Folks, we have to become detectives to determine who is really capable of commitment. Or they just scared or maybe they're just using you as well. You have to be way more discerning in the early stages, which requires asking better questions. And even that is not a guarantee. And yet it puts you on the path of determining which men are really capable to lean into commitment versus those are scared. Okay, so I said 60% of the population are spenders. Now when I use the word spenders, they're just spending time with you. I think you have to really get crystal clear is if you want a serious relationship, then what does partnership look like for you? What does partnership look like for you? Folks, if you follow my channel and you've listened to me, I've talked about this over and over. I've given you examples based on my own life. First off, what does a relationship look like for me depending on the circumstances? We spend three or four days and nights a week together doing shared activities, hobbies, mutual interest, spending time with family and friends, traveling together, teamwork, building skills, both in our personal or professional life, intimacy, both physical and emotional intimacy that leads to either moving in together, getting married. That's the standard I created. And this is what I have expressed in the early stage of dating. A lot of times it might just be what I share over the phone before I've ever met someone so they get a sense of my standard. Now I'm unique in this because I study this stuff. You know, my path to self-love and, you know, look at my t-shirt, humankind be both. My path and my journey to this didn't happen overnight. It happened over a long period of time. I had to go through many humbling events to actually be in a space to really not just be a provider of the content that I share with you all. It's also to step into this awareness that the only way, I shouldn't say the only way, a man has to be leaning towards wanting to commitment or he's leaning the other way. I think that 60% of spenders is he just really just incapable of fully committing and he just, or is it that he's capable, he just doesn't know how. And for those men, this is where you lead by example by establishing your standard right from the get-go. You establish your standards right from the get-go. Now this is going to weed out a lot of men. In addition, I highly recommend using my dating vows before you get physically intimate with someone. If you're not familiar with my dating vows, I'm going to pull it up right now. By the way, it's listed in the description below, so don't worry. You don't need to copy this, but I'm here to say ladies, if you want to get him to commit before sleeping together, then establish this agreement with him. Now first off, you might have heard the saying women are the gatekeepers of sex and men are the gatekeepers of commitment. I want you to think about that for a second. You know, it used to be if a man wanted to have sex with a woman, he'd have to make the ultimate commitment of marriage. Well now, all we have to say is I want a relationship and then women will have sex. Now listen, I'm not here to suggest you can have sex with a man whenever you want. If you're watching my channel, I'm assuming you're the type of woman that wants partnership with a man, so you don't want to have sex randomly with men just for the pure pleasure of it, and you are more than welcome to do that. However, if you are genuinely serious about a relationship, then I challenge you, or invite you, excuse me, to challenge the guys to make them jump through a few more hoops before you get physical too soon. So the dating vows go like this. This is where you both share this to one another. And the agreement is as follows. I agree to explore the process of getting to know you with the intent to declare something serious in the next three to six months. I agree to be monogamous sexually while we're having regular sex together. I agree not to actively seek to meet and date others while we're in the dating process, which includes taking down my dating profiles. A lot of guys are in relationship and their profiles are still up. I agree to speak up if this isn't working for me versus pulling back, ghosting or disappearing. And lastly, I agree to invest regular time in the process to getting to know you, which looks like maybe what I shared before, my standard. Now, I'll tell you 90% of men will bail on this because there are thousands of women who will have sex without any commitment or agreement. I also say if all women band together going forward, this will change how men treat and view sex. In the meantime, if he does agree, you have a better chance to commit with him. Folks, listen, this is tricky. It is very tricky because these days we're meeting total strangers on first date. We know nothing about them. We don't know their family. We don't know their backstory. We don't even know if they're safe to be with. I want you to think about this. When you meet a total stranger, you have no idea if they're a con artist, if they're abusive, if they've had criminal records. I mean, this is the sad reality we're dealing with. This is why I say we have to be detectives. I'm sorry, I would prefer it not to be fear-based, but I'm just suggesting being a bit more discerning. A little bit more discerning. What does that look like? Hey, try to meet his family and friends in the early stages of dating. Try to get a sense. Try to Google him. Look him up on LinkedIn. Find out as much about his backstory and not the backstory he told you, but I'm talking about a backstory that actually can be Googled. I once did a blog. If you can't find him on Google, if he doesn't have a Google footprint, that could be a red flag. Listen, I know this is frustrating and hard for you. Again, I would so much prefer to operate from an absolute place of an open and receptive heart. You can do that, and at the same time, you can be discerning, because you have a greater chance of meeting a user and spender versus those growers and builders. Now, the other thing I invite you to do is to do your own inner work so you can actually become a repellent to those users and spenders. That's right. You can become a repellent to them. This is why I highly recommend reading the book, The Hoffman Process. This is a deep dive into healing, childhood wounds and traumas. And more importantly, it invites self-love into your life. And if you're not familiar with my book, what the heck is self-love anyway? By the way, there's a link below to all the books I recommend. This is a journey of personal development, self-help and spiritual work, because you will actually, when you genuinely love on yourself, when you're genuinely in a good place, when you're genuinely in a place of gratitude and there's no chip on your shoulder, you actually become more of a magnetic attractor for those growers and builders, and you repel those users and spenders growing forward when you lean into your sovereignty, your self-worth, your self-esteem, your self-confidence. That is the recipe for attracting a guy that's more likely to be a grower and a builder. And the grower and builder means he wants to grow something with you, he wants to build something, he wants partnership with you. By the way, is this sinking and is this resonating? Listen, there are guys who genuinely like you, but they're a little bit scared. This is why I invite you to be the emotional leader of the relationship and guide this person along if he's genuinely worthy of it, because if you're sitting waiting, sitting back in your feminine energy waiting to be claimed, you could be claimed short-run with those users and those spenders and find yourself repeating this pattern over and over again. And what's the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results and I want to invite you to have a different result. Okay, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this. Please post a comment below. Please share this video with your friends. Please like this video. Please subscribe to my channel if you're brand new. And if you are brand new, I'm going to end with my always my closing. I'm going to end this with my big, gigantic Jonathan bear hug to myself. I'm going to reach into the camera and give you a bear hug as well. If that's okay. I'm asking you to turn to someone, a teddy bear pillow. Here's a teddy bear and give Iter them a hug of love because hugs are a great source of love. And let's face it, we could all use more love in our lives. Bye-bye now. Bye-bye.

What Is Domain Authority and How Can It Enhance Your Search Visibility? | The Journey
Search engines like Google are the primary mode of discovery for billions of users, so if you can get your site at or near the top rankings for relevant keyword phrases, you can secure an ever-growing stream of new traffic to your website. Check out more The Journey content at https://bit.ly/GDTheJourney. ✅ Read about it on our blog ➜ https://bit.ly/2TTaM0GGoDaddy 0:55 What is domain authority? 1:36 Why is domain authority different? 2:26 How to check domain authority 2:44 Increase domain authority But many online business owners neglect a fundamental element of search engine optimization (SEO) strategy: domain authority. What is domain authority? It’s a metric that predicts how likely a website’s pages are to display prominently in search results pages. When search engines formulate search engine results pages (SERPs) they usually look for two things: relevance, or how appropriate the content is for the given query, and trustworthiness, or how valuable and reputable the content is. Domain authority applies across your entire domain, so every page of your site shares the same domain authority rating. You might also want to consider page authority, which is similarly calculated, except it applies at the page level. For example, you could have a high domain authority, but if one piece of content you published has a significantly higher page authority than your other pages, it’s going to perform comparatively better in organic search results than the rest of the pages on your site. How to check your domain’s authority? The best way is with an online domain authority checker. These are some of the best tools available: -Moz’s Link Explorer -Ubersuggest -SEMRush How can you increase domain authority? Your first step is to produce high-quality content for your blog on a regular basis. High-quality content is not only going to directly increase your domain authority, but it’s also going to serve as an anchor point for the links you build for your domain. Your next step is to earn more inbound links for your site. This is the best way to increase your domain authority, but it’s also the trickiest. That’s because Google is acutely aware of the possibility that webmasters are building fraudulent or manipulative links for the sole purpose of increasing their domain authority and search rankings. Rely on link building and content development to be the pillars of your strategy, and keep an eye on your competitors so you continue to improve.

What is domain authority and how can it enhance your search visibility? We've got answers for you here on the journey. We realized just how important it is for your site to be visible in search engines. Search engines like Google are the primary mode of discovery for billions of users. So if you can get your site at or near the top of the rankings for relevant keyword phrases, you can secure an ever growing stream of new traffic to your website. But many online business owners neglect a fundamental element of search engine optimization strategy. And that is domain authority. So we're going to talk about how domain authority is calculated, why domain authority matters. And of course, the strategies that you need to be successful in improving it. So what is domain authority? Well, it's a metric developed to predict how likely a website's pages are to display prominently in search results pages. Domain authority applies across your entire domain. So every page of your site shares the same domain authority rating. Not to be confused with page authority, which is calculated in a similar way, except it does apply at the page level. So for example, you could have a high domain authority. But if one piece of the content you publish has a significantly higher page authority than the other pages, well, it's going to perform comparatively better in organic search results than the rest of the pages on your site. So domain authority is super important. But let's talk a little bit more about why. So the basic principle idea of SEO is to include important keywords, and other related keywords within the body of your content to increase their likelihood of ranking for queries with similar wording. Google takes into consideration a mixture of content quality, domain history and inbound link profiles. Domain authority is hard to increase because it really depends on so many factors. Once you start increasing it, it's relatively easy to preserve that momentum. Over time, your domain authority will get higher and higher, boosting your site's visibility and search results almost permanently. Short of following black cat SEO tactics, there are a few ways to decrease your domain authority. So you'll likely continue reaping the benefits of your domain authority investment for years to come. So let's talk about how to check your domains authority. While the best way is with an online domain authority checker, there are a few tools available out there. Maz's link Explorer, uber suggest and SEM rush. Now you know what it is and how to check it on your own. Let's get into how to actually increase your domain authority. The first the way you can do that is by prioritizing content quality. So new link builders often get carried away trying to link to their work no matter what, but it's vital to prioritize the quality of your content above everything else. If your articles seem slapped together or poorly researched, you aren't going to get featured and always link in a relevant, valuable way. Your link can't be shoehorned in or it will be removed or will look spammy. And when linking to your on site content, always make sure that it's done in a way that's valuable to the readers and relevant to the topic at hand. And be sure to keep seeking new publishers, subsequent links on the same publisher will yield diminishing returns. So always keep seeking visibility on new publishers. Also point to many different articles. So keep your page authority in mind and try to build links to a variety of internal pages and then avoid link schemes. Many sites will promise to increase your domain authority quickly or build you lots of links in a short period of time. These are usually link schemes, they're going to do more harm than good. And if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. And the bad thing with this, it's hard to undo the harm than it is just to do the work and get some good links. It's practically impossible to rank higher in search engines unless you do spend time focusing on improving your domain authority. And hey, there are plenty of secondary benefits of authority boosting strategies as well. Rely on link building and content development to be the pillars of your strategy and keep an eye on your competitors so you continue to improve. And speaking of link building, we have over 200 videos for you to watch and grow your business and check those out. Be sure to like, comment, subscribe. This is The Journey. We'll see you next time.

What's the word y'all welcome back to a another one of those talking about every single NBA team for X amount of minutes I know that the title says one minute, but I'm keeping it a buck with you Every team is not getting one minute to talk about because as we get to the 60% mark of the NBA season There's some teams that don't get a lot of eye time for me. I might watch some highlights I might watch my watch his possessions from players that I like on that organization, but let's be honest man Some some teams are not worth watching unless you're a die-hard fan of that team and what you will see Don't this video you will be able to tell which are the teams that I've been watching heavily versus which are the teams I have not been watching so yes, you dig it click bait in my apologies But we're trying to get new people to join the channel speaking of that if you're new around here subscribe leave a like at the End of the day. I'm just to do with a microphone and watch some basketball. You may disagree with everything I say in this video Which would be weird Considering we're talking about 30 different teams if you disagree with literally everything I say in this video This is the only time I'm gonna tell you do not subscribe to do not subscribe to the town of my boy But everybody else even if it's one out of 30 subscribe leave a like let's get into it Hey, this video was filmed an hour before the clippers trade with the with the trailblazer So keep that in mind was also filmed before the big news that the 76ers and the Nets might be having conversations soon That doesn't really disrupt the video, but I'm just letting you know once we get to those teams They're not mentioned because of the article the way we're doing things is out one seed one seed to see to see so if for some reason You don't really care about me talking about 29 teams You just want to listen to your favorite team and your favorite team happen to be at the end of the conference You can you can fast forward if you want to but spoiler alert as I said Some teams get talked about less in the lower we get down low key the least I'm gonna have to say because you feel me let's start off at the top of the Easter conference right now The one-seater Chicago Bulls is weird to say I ain't as a die-hard bulls thing going into the season I would have never expected that we'd be 60% of the way through the season and the bulls will be the one see But pretty much as of right now every question mark that fans slash writers head about to Chicago Bulls when it comes to defense It's true right now We can't defend a damn thing every single night. It's we're trying to outscore you You we gonna give up a two But we might come down ahead of three and like that we got the lead and it's been hard to watch because Because I've been accustomed to now when we when we had Alice Caruso and Lonzo ball at there Jones Junior being healthy I was low-key accustomed to the Bulls playing a little bit of defense out there and when I try to explain to people that Aren't watching the Bulls as as intently as I am that those three players being out with injury matters so much They don't really understand Those guys are the heart and soul of the defensive they not out there causing havoc we will not get stops So I would not be surprised again as we talk about six to eight weeks of those guys been injured if this team was the one See right now slid down to the four or slid down to the five considering how bunched up they are and this makes me think about Basically what I'm thinking about about all 30 NBA teams because we're in the dog days in the NBA season I'm just counting on days of the trade that line and my mind immediately thinks of What will the front office do come trade that line? And I've listened to a lot of different podcasts of people that are really into the game of basketball as far as like Knowing people around the league that are sources. They say that the Bulls don't want to trade Patrick Williams Okay, so if we're not trading Patrick Williams, and you believe that we could go out and win a championship What moves do we do because right now based on what we've seen this is not a team that is ready? Right, so I don't I don't really know what they do again I'm just enjoying the fact that we are playing okay basketball because we haven't had that in half a decade But I'm very curious of what they do get well soon to the rest of the guys I was on TNT talking about the Bulls for two minutes That was fun talk about the Phoenix Suns because as of right now the Phoenix Suns are 41 and 10 crazy They lost their last game to the Atlanta Hawks, but other than that, they're great And when I ask people and there are some places I've talked about this before there are some places where I try not to talk about Basketball, but I'm always curious about the casual fans and I again casual is not a negative connotation in my world If you if you're a casual fan, that's okay The casual fans for separation of the NBA slash who will win a championship slash who will win a conference And when I ask people who do you have coming out the West or do you have one in the championship? The Suns don't get as much love as I think they should a lot of people go to the worst Which makes sense because the words are great in themselves A lot of people think that the Bucks don't repeat which makes sense They're great in themselves a lot of people still see the Brooklyn that's which is great But I very rarely hear people say the Suns and in my mind They should be getting a lot more love because there's not many holes as you can poke in this team They have stoppers they have a floor general point guard who's one of the greatest they ever do it They have Devin Booker who is improved every single year. I know Kenny his field goal percentage now There's points or his percentage on two pointers down. He's getting better every single season They got a three-man a center rotation that looks like the greatest of all time and a lot of that goes to Chris Paul They are greatly coached and they just have good role players and they're the greatest clutch team in the entire NBA And when I think about basketball specifically playoff basketball, I want the clutches team This is a game that's gonna get slowed down So I'm not saying I would pick the Phoenix Suns to win a championship But when I ask people I would expect people to say the Phoenix Suns more than some of these other teams But I'm just enjoying watching the play every night the Miami Heat man again Every single team has dealt with injuries for sure So I'm not trying to single out the Miami heat or even the Bulls like I did a couple minutes ago Every single team have went through their ups and downs when it came to health to seek the protocol injuries But we're talking about a team that miss Cal Laurie for a significant amount of time The amount of bio missed over a month of basketball Jimmy baller has been in and out of the rotation But here they are tied for the one seat and low key by the end of the night They might be the one seat because the Bulls are playing a second game of a back-to-back at last night They went to overtime and lost so they might have them dead legs The Miami Heat are so very good right now, and it's not surprising that they're good It's surprising that they've been able to be this good considering all the things that they've been through and I try to Consume a lot of NBA ball because as much as I try to watch I can't get everything There are some things that are even higher level for me to even understand in the game of basketball So I try to read as much as I can or try to list to as many podcasts as I can and there's a one Twitter followed I'll highly recommend I'll recommend listening or listening to him on his podcast and I recommend reading reading his articles And my apology if I pronounced is wrong because he has a pronunciation in his name But I'm so wrong with letters or so bad or letters Nikai is Duncan Some of y'all already know him. He's got like 50,000 followers on Twitter He's a very good follow and I was listening to him on a podcast with Kevin O'Connor and he was he's very in tune with the Miami He's specifically and he's basically talking about how the Miami Heat have been able to change the way they play basketball Depending on who's available that night Which is crazy because every single NBA team can't really do that. They have smart players They have one of the greatest coaches in the league is weird to say the air exposure It's never won a coach of the year But he hasn't and I think a lot of that has to do with like early in his career similar to like Steve Kern we'll talk about them in a couple minutes how When you start off your NBA career as a coach and you already have legendary players Slash big threes people question how much is coaching versus how much is the players and I think of the coaches get devalued to the to the average NBA fan when the reality air exposes just one of the greatest to do it He might be the best doing it right now I'm low-key fearing that he gonna bring out that zone and the Bulls won't score for five minutes at a time You know, he's been they've been able to find two-way player-sized players that were there were scraps and other teams and have them Be good max screws or Caleb Martin or game Vincent And they just been able to do things and they're a fun team to watch offensively and defensively and for the first time in a While they have all three of their star players playing and they won last night The Warriors are currently on an eight-game win streak without Draymond Green. They are looking good clay Thompson's looking better and better I think last night he hit six threes in the first half not a second half He didn't really do much either but he hit like six threes in the first half and then he's looking better and better They've been able to keep the streak alive without Draymond, which is promising Because we don't really know what's going on with Draymond. He announced yesterday that he won't be able to participate in the all-star game So that's two weeks away and he's already said no to that So we don't know what's going on with Draymond Green But they've been able to weather the storm that Steph Curry who's looking better and better low-key that slump might be over We'll see it's only been like three games. So I'm not saying it's completely over But he's looking better and better But my question similar to what I said about the Bulls is what do they do with the trade deadline? Because again as good as they are and they can't win a championship and a lot of people see them as a favor, which is good They're not un-messwittable. You know what I really want to say, but we're gonna keep a PG They're not un-messwittable and they have some players on their team that might be tradeable pieces to to improve I don't think Bob Myers has been a dude that's made in season trades other than the D'Angelo Russell trade when they weren't very good But as they look like contenders Bob Myers and the front office of the Warriors have never been a team that's going to be like, oh, we're one piece away But could they do it this year the 76ers The reseed I mean the eastern conference in itself one game can drop you from the one C to the five C low key Depending on what the rest of the league is up to so it's it's kind of scary being a part of this Hey, it's also fun as an NBA fan. I'm the 76ers are 31 and 20 Um lost their last game to the wizards if I'm not mistaken, but the game before that was a thriller Tyree's maxi yada yada yada um my main concern about the 76ers is Will they be disappointing fans? If they decide not to trade Ben Simmons this week And I know that Daryl Mori in the front office have have tried to tamper the expectations Hey, we are okay with with not trading Ben because we think that we can get James Hard in this off season I if I was a 76er fan, I would low key be disappointed in not trading Ben Simmons This is that line Joel and bead could be the MVP of the league this season even with him playing in the MVP level I I personally and this could change throughout the course of the season I still don't see them in the upper echelon of contenders too because it is so much Joel and bead And it's just like good to solid role players slash good players around him when in reality. I mean, I don't know I just don't know Is this I know they said they they don't want to waste a Joel and bead year Is this consider wasting a Joel and bead year if you don't trade Ben Simmons for asset those grizzlies, man those grizzlies Jared Jackson jr. Unfortunately for him it took him a while to get to the point where he's at right now because of that He wasn't really in all-star conversations But as of recently whether it be the last month or two, he's been playing all-star caliber. It's so crazy I went back to look at this I'm through the first 14 games of the season they were seven and seven and they had the worst defense in the entire League Right now. Let me let me go ahead click over to my other tab. Uh, they are 36 and 18 they went like 25 games And lost four of them at one point That is now currently there's six and four in the last 10 But either way that is insane and right now they went from the worst defense in the league to a team That's teetering around seven to ten one game can turn you from the seven to the ten It's kind of weird in the NBA right now, but it's just a testament to I don't know actually I literally what happened. What was the the flick switching or even there might not have been a flick switch I was listening to the low post the other day and one of my favorite podcasts And he had a couple guests on who sounded very similar So I don't know if it was bobby marx or the other guy But they said that they still have the bucks is the favorite in easter corvus because they're they're working with this different kind of swagger Which I can low key agree with the fact that they lost a game And I forget what it was that cleveland they lost the game in cleveland They got smoked in cleveland and then in a post game interview Yannis came up with some some chicken and chicken wings said hey, we suck You know, I think they just have a different mindset when it comes to the regular season Is that a good thing? Is that a bad thing? Is it is that championship fatigue already? I don't really know But they're still really really good when the best three of the team Best three of the players play not only recently again They lost to the calves with all three and I think they lost to the nuggets by 30 with all three For the most part they have been virtually unstoppable with all three We think about net rating and how good the offense in the defense is I still am a bit afraid of what brick Lopez's injury is or Or would they be able to trade don't take even chenzo to just bolster up that front court? I don't really know because it feels like Dante's Um Dante's trade value might not be as high as it was when they were getting by donovan's a couple seasons ago But there I feel like they are going to be centers on the market I think we're going to talk about this a little bit when we get to the hornets centers on the market That won't cost a ton that could raise your floor And I think the buck should be trying to go after one of those guys The utah jazz are bad right now and a lot of that again, rudigo bear miss significant time Donovan Mitchell is missing significant time. He just got out of um I'm so used to now protocol Just automatically being healthy safety, but dont have a picture just got a concussion protocol And brian windows are said um today Or late yesterday go better Mitchell have been at each other's. I don't know if I can say it Other throats. Oh my god Brian windows are saying that Donovan Mitchell and rudigo bear are back to having A passively aggressive awkward relationship and that was McMahon McMahon If that is Interesting there was also reports a couple weeks ago. It was like a daughter Mitch was one One first-round exit away from a question the trade and again. These are all rumors. I don't know of winning horses Just talking about his ass. I don't know But it's interesting for the league ladies gentlemen Rudy go bear said two weeks ago. Um, I look at the way What do you say? I look at the way Devin Booker has tied in on the defensive side of the ball and yadda That is a real-life shot at Donovan Mitchell that he's talking about Devon Booker's defense when these dudes have been compared for each other for the last three seasons The team hasn't been great. They've been missing their top two players. Joe Ingalls is towards ACL If this was happening on a team that was like one of the top markets in the NBA It'd be all over the place, but they're Utah so it was low-key Could this be the last year that we see these two players play together? Maybe the Cavaliers, man I legit think that Jared Alice should have been an all-star over at Christmas Hey, it is what it is They have been a team that that has thrived in beating badass teams or like when we're going to get the team that is worse than us We will win those games and that is how you get to the playoffs and that is how you get a top seed You don't play down a competition and once you plan against a good people you have a chance and they play against a good People in the Bucks bus they asked but the last couple losses for them have been bad It have not been very Cleveland Cavaliers like I think it was the Rockets and the Detroit Pizzas and the Detroit Pizzas when they blew a big lead But regardless, I'm still impressed with the way they've been able to do what they do Considering Colin Sexton being out Ricky Rubio was looking like their third to fourth best player majority of the season He is also out. I'm Laurie marketing is now out They have not had the injury luck like a lot of teams But I feel like theirs might be more significant than the average team Considering the roles that the players were playing and they still been good man DZ being an all-star game in Cleveland It's gonna be great. I can't wait to be there and he gets announced or You know what actually this is this is what I've learned in the last couple years of me being at the all-star game The average fan of that that organization gets priced out of the all-star game tickets So I was gonna say when Darius Garland gets announced to come to the game Yeah, there's gonna be a uproar But it won't be as big of an uproar as you expect because the average NBA fan can't pay $1,500 $2,000 to just go to this exhibition game I'll roof for him like like he's a hometown dude, but yeah, it's unfortunate But that's I guess that's the way things work shouldn't but hey the Mavericks. Hey listen I'm a guy. I'm a guy that can say he's wrong when he was wrong And I was wrong about Jason kids defensive schemes early in the season I was talking about how I don't love it when I was watching they were blitzing every single thing They were blitzing Davion Mitchell who at that point was shooting 20% from three on the season They were blitzing blitzing blitzing and letting them pick and roll with John Holmes And I was what the hell are they doing and recently The scheme has been working. They're one of the best offensive teams in the entire league Luca Dodgers is playing back up to Luca Dodgers standards And I know the count of stats have always been there, but he looks more fit now than he did in the early stages of the season I know these is lost a bad one to okay see what I'll shake is Alexander, but regardless I was wrong, but they're still missing something I don't think they're gonna be able to get that something But they're still missing something for me to put them on the next level But again when Lucas playing good basketball, he is must-see TV the Nets There's a lot of turmoil going on with the Brooklyn Nets right now Katie posted a picture on Instagram and you know what I'm gonna see if I can find it real quick because I was low-key surprised now again We are um as NBA fans We overreact to literally everything. I'm not exaggerating Kevin Arrant was listening to a song and posted it on Instagram and here I am trying to dissect What the hell he said hold on let me find it. He was listening to a song by Huey brisk and Nico beats called losing my faith Ladies and gentlemen, what is he talking about? But now they're they're having things said and just it just hasn't been looking great with the with the heart of rumors going around and Him the other night having literally his worst game almost ever And he talked about his post game interviews just having distractions and then Kyrie said hopefully one day We'll all be able to play together where you in like The self-awareness just wasn't there For a team that is still according to Vegas the the favorite to win a championship They don't look like it now when all three of them are playing. It's a different story But you're only gonna have for that When everybody's healthy if everybody gets healthy at the same time they've been together for a season and a half They have like 17 games under their belt together You know I'm saying and if things don't work out if they don't win a championship And James Harden moves to his next team or Kyrie moves to his next team because he wants to play to a play in a place Where he doesn't need to get the shot? Somebody's trace we gonna look back on be like damn The Nets did it again The Nets did it again I listen in the moment if you can trade for James Harden and you can sign Katie and Kyrie you do it 99 times out of a hundred But I don't think they thought a global pandemic was gonna hit prevent them from having one of their top three players play And I don't think they expected James Harden To not look like the hundred percent version himself. He's selling all-star. You saw that the other night He's selling all-star kind of a player I won't refute that but he still doesn't look like the James Harden that was dogging the league and won an MVP just a couple Seasons ago. What can I say about the nuggets other than they are not they are great? Yolkich is great. You know what I saw a screenshot on Twitter and it was the oh my god What is the podcast with I can't think of the name of the podcast All the smoke all the smoke with Matt Barnes and Steve Jackson and they were ranking their MVPs and none of them had Yolkich on the ballot And there's a stigma around the league of people that that think that Yolkich is an MVP caliber player as Nerds everybody that show love to Yolkich is a nerd They only talk about advanced stats and graphs. No motherfucker. You're just not watching the games That's just tells me everything I need to know if you don't have Yolkich in your MVP conversation I'm not saying he should be the winner right now because I don't have a vote and we're only 60% of the way through the season But if you're going through the top three top four MVP candidates and Yolkich is not on my list I just know you're not watching their games, which is fine But don't try to discredit my ballot because I got Yolkich there simple the Raptors Hey, the Raptors are if you look at their Offensive defensive stats. They're average. They're literally everything. They're average defensive team They're average offensive teams, but when I watched them I feel like their defense should be a lot better than average when it comes to the advanced stats because when they run that line up of Scotty Gerritron, Jr. Who's like leading the league in the flexes and steals Pascal. Oh gee and Pascal and Scotty Barnes. I'm like who am I forgetting Scotty Barnes. They got like hands out of this world They're deflecting every plans. They're playing great defense My question to them is what do they do at the trade that line because even though They've been looking better and better They still only have like a six-man rotation of players that can legitimately play NBA minutes on a team that's solid So will they be able to move Gordon's Rodgers get this trade that line? I don't know because he's still making like 18 million dollars I don't know if a team is gonna take that you basically I saw a report that if a team did trade for Gordon's Rodgers They'd buy him out. I'm so very happy for Carinthony Towns making another all-star appearance a couple years ago Every GM across the league was asked if you were to start an NBA organization Who'll be the guy you want to start off with and Carinthony Towns had a vast majority of those votes and every single season They went down and down and down and got to the point where people were calling Carinthony Towns soft And he wasn't a great NBA center anymore. And here he is getting back to all-star caliber I'm in a lot of that has to do with his team winning more games at the end of the day I mean his stats is pretty much the same over the past couple seasons But he is winning more games and I would say that his defense is better this season than any of the other Seasons and I saw somebody on Twitter And this is not a shot at you my boy if you're watching this video definitely not a shot I'm just talking about the Minnesota Timbers right now and in yesterday's video I was talking about the NBA all-star game and we were talking about snubs and in that video I was basically saying like there's not a lot of there's not a lot of snubs and bro hit me like hey Anthony Edwards is a snub and though Anthony Edwards has been great this season What I think we got to stop using the word snub so loosely and the reason I am saying that is Because if you're trying to tell me X players a snub I just got a report from for more Sorry, if you're telling me that X player is a snub you got to also tell me who he should replace And if you can't do that then player X is not a snub and my mind snub is a player that should have been in there and deserved Over the player that actually wasn't there Lamella ball legitimately might be a snub and the average I don't really see him as snub even though he has been playing all-star caliber. I just don't think he's he's been better Than the other players that actually made it that that's my only thing that's my only thing shout out to aunt though He's amazing the Charlotte Hornets Let's talk about it man The big thing about the Charlotte Hornets that everybody has been talking about is their lack of center depth slash lack of good Center to to put this team over the top what it's over the top mean I think over the top means that not in the playing and right now they're four and a half games out of the first They lost their last two the middle ball had a career night the other night It was great, but they end up losing to the Boston Celtics who will talk about in a couple teams but this is the thing if They want to upgrade that position. I just don't think they have That great of a package to do it. I Thought that James book night because he looks like a baby. I for some reason thought he was like 19 21 He spent two years at college. I don't know what I thought he was 19 21, which is not a bad thing It's not a bad thing, but I just thought that he was he he was 19 years old That's all and the packages is is is not enticing if you're not throwing book night in there book night when he's got minutes He's looked okay He's looked like a good slash good potential player, but I've also seen Hornets fans They're not willing to give up book night. So what the hell are you giving up to upgrade that center position? There are a lot of centers that might be on the market The Washington Wizards have three centers over there that I don't think they care about any of them as far as like they're answering Phones for Thomas Bryant. They're answering phones for for Montrez and they're answering phones from Daniel Gaffer I just don't know what your package looks like Clippers last night played one of the best games of the season now They were blowing a lead and low-key clustered out with Reggie Jackson and that screenshot of Reggie Jackson going around Twitter right now It's hilarious, but I mentioned this a couple videos ago how they they just remind me of like a good mid-major college, bro You just legitimately don't know if it's gonna be a Reggie Jackson night You don't know if it's going to be mook You don't know if it's gonna be anybody else terrorist man can surprisingly drop a 20-piece out of nowhere I'm here coffee could drop 20 Luca Narca It's six threes in the game and because of that they're hard to game plan against and I think after the game last night Tehran Lou went to supposed game interview is like we're prepared to not get Not get Kawhi Leonard back this season, which is disappointing man I'm just watching why I play basketball regardless them sending that 500 is Is really impressive considering the lack of upper and talent that they have the Celtics man I had told myself or told y'all that I would not talk about the Celtics anymore because every time I talk about the second Celtics They go on a five game loser streak, but here we go We're testing the Kenny. What is it the Kenny curse the Kenny for real curse either way in the last 10 games? They are seven and three the defense has been spectacular Even though their up and talent Jason Tater might not be having the same season statistically as some of the other seasons He's still been I And and they're slowly creeping their way out of the not in the playoff thing Them in the Atlanta Hawks you would talk about Found a way in the early stages of the second half of the season to be good again And a lot of that for the boss of Celtics is they were hanging their head on the defensive side of the ball But I also saw a rumor the other day about the Chicago Bulls and Dennis Schroeder, which is very interesting I don't know what that package looks like and I'm not really interested in Dennis Schroeder as a player for the Bulls But I don't know what we would give you other than like The flat the cap flexibility to get under the luxury tax For that straight I don't know South to the Seas though the Lakers whoo Three games under 500 they've missed Anthony Davis so a good point. He's come back He's looked really really good since he's come back Which is a great sign because eventually LeBron will come back from this injury We don't know when that will be LeBron and his team has always been a Team to slow roll these injuries. We're like they'll tell you he's day-to-day and then it'll turn into a week And they're like, oh actually it's gonna be two more weeks You know I'm saying a slow roll in these things and I saw a picture I'm in a video on Twitter about there being a sack of liquid in the back of LeBron's left leg or left knee and That doesn't sound great That doesn't sound great So I hope Ron comes back sooner rather than later not as a Laker fan But as a fan of the NBA considering how good he was and I just want to see their entire team healthy for the first time The Atlanta Hawks are eight and two in their last 10 games They just be the best team of basketball and Trey Young's offense. I'm just literally reading my notes Trey Young offense Trey Young's offense is As far as a heliocentric Offensive player. There's not many in the entire league that are better Now the other side of the ball for Vincent from being a top five Issue that but we strictly talking about the offensive side of the ball Trey Young as an orchestrator is is he leaked and we talked about a dude that low-key like six foot maybe lower I met Trey young dog and he really feel like he was six foot six one like they be trying to advertise him as you feel me But this is another year where there seem like they might turn a flip of switch on the second half of the season Which is not good You shouldn't start every season ass and then start to play good and then find yourself as a five-seater the six-seater What a four seed if you could just play consistently solid for the entire season There's nothing to worry about But hey, I guess better late than never the Blazers better be active at the deadline or I'm going to be upset with them Simple they bet they better be active. I'm not I'm not telling them who they should trade or they should trade Dame or they should trade CJ if they don't make a minimum of three trades I'm be disappointed unless one of those trade they make one trade That's about a boom out of bam then I won't be disappointed, but they just got to make some moves I don't really know what direction they're gonna go in as far as trying to get you thin Or are they trying to buy for when Dame comes back at the end of this season or or next season? I don't really know the direction But you got to make a decision the Wizards the vibes aren't great y'all the vibes are not great Talk about a team that was the one see everybody said this before the the one see very early in the season Then we he has to be moved for the lower will be moved for the lowest seems like because him and Bradley be able to button heads And you're you're picking Bradley Beal for the watch the Wizards You can't have anybody in there that's gonna buy heads with him But the problem is then when he got paid a decent amount of money for sure And I don't know if teams are looking at what he's done this season Even though he had a triple double gets to the 76 didn't I I don't know if many teams are looking at what special Then when he has done this season and his price sag I think like Yeah, that's worth it Every single player should be up for trade for them not a single player should be untouchable Not one of them not one of them the vibes aren't great And if they don't make trade similar to what I said the the Treblazers I'm disappointed, but again, I'm just a guy that wants to see craziness happen so make trade the Pelicans are a half a game out of the play-in and with the Treblazers potentially making some trades the Pelicans might be a play-in team this season Which is crazy because you're 19 and 32 and they still trying to tell the fans that Zion will come back Zion will come back if they can just Win a couple in a row boom, you're a play-in team and then Zion comes back boom I really have much to say about the pelicans. I really like Herb Jones and Brandon Ingham is a stud and that that's all It's talking about the vibes being off Jul according to reddit and I didn't fact check this myself because I just feel like it's the people that are out there They go through the following of NBA players slash celebrities to see who've unfollowed who was kind of weird to me Like uh drake unfollowed Rihanna and a sabraki after you announced that you're having a baby who the hell was like Rihanna is having a baby. Let me go think and see what drake is up to You know what I'm saying? Recently somebody looked through Julius Randall's twitter followed and he unfollowed the New York Knicks and now people are speculating Does he know that the trade is coming up in these last couple days? The Vaps have not been great with Julius Randall. He has not talked to the reporters at the end of games in the past I don't think he's done it at all in 2022. He goes through these games. He goes through the motions He hasn't played great and he doesn't talk to to the media Ah All NBA second team last year y'all Not even in consideration for an all-star appearance this season Ah, and now we get down to our last group of teams and we might be able to rapid-fire somebody's low key The spurs might have disante Murray as an all-star replacement and I talked about this yesterday I hope he gets it But if the NBA wants to stay consistent with what the hell they've been trying to tell us for a decade or two Two guards three forwards and then two Wild cards off the bench. They should be replacing drake mile with the forward which might be brand enigma But if they go with disante Murray then adam silver got to make those changes Disante Murray deserves to be in there as a replacement But if he's not then I can't even be mad because that's just them sticking to their guns. Um, the pacers played a guy named Terry Taylor Didn't even know he existed and bro bald the fuck he bald out I saw his stat line. I was like, oh, is that a center bro is six five? Yeah, like 15 rebounds y'all I don't know if they got something Terry Taylor because that was the only time I ever seen a stat line from him But I like that they playing the younger dudes, you know, I'm saying see what the heck is going on Lance Stevens He just got to extend it or got a full-time contract which is great for him But I ain't got nothing to say about the pacers since they make a trade I ain't got much to say about the kings until they make a trade No, um, devion Mitchell of the pass couple games have been really exciting bro He had the game against the warriors where he played great defense Oh, nope. No, no He had the game against the nets where you play great defense on a combination of james hardon slash carry urban And then against the warriors the other night he had 21 points going into halftime Davion Mitchell getting better and better, which is a good thing. That's a very good thing That makes maybe make it a a race or maybe a trade in a deer and fox a little less hard on them If they believe that devion Mitchell could continue this little run. He's on cake under him recently took over the NBA ladders rookie of the year Shout out to him. I'm trying to explain to people that the rookie of the year award literally means nothing at all Um, other than like I had a good rookie season that does that's not a way to tell who's going to be the best prospect Of the top guys in the draft class We've seen in uh night in night out of a rookie having a great rookie season not being great I'm not foreshadowing that for kate or anybody else associated But anytime I make a tweet about kate or I make a tweet about scottie or I'll make a tweet about mobily There's people coming in from the other camps like Just being being salty about the thing when in reality the rickie of the award doesn't mean a damn thing It just doesn't just respect all all of the guys as rookies in hooping brad this class has been incredible Um, the thunder speaking in this rookie class you had the moment with josh get a gator out of carriage williams and again carriage williams, please become a chicago bull, please Um, but my notes for the okc thunder says more first round picks question mark Next the orlando The orlando magic are a fun team for them being the worst team in basketball And then lastly the houston rockets. I might note say last eight games kevin portie jr Seventeen points seven and a half assists and only three turnovers Bright considering early in the season. It didn't look like he can really hold the primary playmaker a role That is me talking about every single nba team for um x amount of time some got three seconds Some got three minutes. I don't really know if you enjoyed the video leave it a like And we will do this again at the end of the season, but it won't be every team It will be every playoff team. I appreciate y'all peace

There's Bermuda's Amaris Munia. We're just looking at ahead of the second semifinal. Here's the line-up. Landers of St. Lucia. Lucia of Guyana. Reynolds, the defending champion, Jamaica. Shanessia Bryant of Barbados. Annalisa Brown of Grenada. Dixianel Thomas, fourth in the 400 last nights in Kitsenivis. Amaris Munia, Bermuda, and Tenere Gardner of the Turks and Cape Assailants. Brian Bronze last year but again Barbados not having had access to the track for much of the year is left to be seen what her preparation or how her preparation will have been affected. We saw Simmons from Barbados going last night in the 1500. Alec E. Reynolds' hair along with Brian, two of the three medalists from last year as you see Brian on screen. Alec E. Reynolds, silver medalist in the 1500 last night. As they are sent on their way, this semifinal has some amount of quality. The defending champion Alec E. Reynolds, last year's bronze medalist, Shanessia Bryant of Barbados. Dixianel Thomas, fourth in the 400 meters last night having taken the bronze medal in that event a year ago, the Kitsen. This one is nicely bunched heading down the back straight. Annalisa Brown of Grenada also in the mix, the Guyanese Blutcher. Reynolds is starting to separate herself from the pack just a little bit but they're not allowing her to quite get away at this point at least. Yeah, she knows there is some amount of quality in this semifinal so she doesn't want to give them a chance and that's why she's made the pace pretty brisk. She's gone to the front and determined to front run. They come through the first 400 meters. Now this is a sensible pace, 106 and a half for Alec E. Reynolds. Looks like the Guyanese who is holding second position at this stage, Akila Blutcher with Dixianel Thomas of Kitsen, Nevis in third, the Barbadian will down. Chenicia Bryanton with a lot of work to do but she starts to move forward. Top three will advance next two best times so there's a lot of work to be done for those two young ladies fighting it out for fourth. They'll want to try to move up in the last 200 meters. Yeah, significant work. It's Reynolds of Jamaica who has the advantage. Blutcher of Guyana in second, Dixianel Thomas of St. Kitsen, Nevis in third, the Barbadian Bryant not out of it yet and she is rallying as they hit the straight away. The Grenadian is also finishing with a flourish and Alisa Brown and it's going to be a bang of finish for the automatic positions. Reynolds wins it. It's going to be tight for second. The Grenadian gets there ahead of Dixianel Thomas of St. Kitsen, Nevis. Tremendous finish coming from Alisa Brown of Grenada to snatch second position and secure her place into the final. Ran her heart out there for her country securing a spot in the final 217.35. Comfortable qualification for the Jamaican champion. The crowd lumping the performance from the Grenadian Blutcher of Guyana was in a qualifying position for a long way in this race but couldn't hold on down the stretch. At this point in the race it looks as though the Barbadian Bryant is the one who's going to be making the move. You see her picking up the pace here and coming to take on her two counterparts from St. Kitsen, Nevis and Guyana but in fact it's going to be Alisa coming from Grenada down the home straight and she comes through for that position place in the next round. Leaving a lot in the gas for the last 100. Reynolds 217.35. Brown 219.11. That's a personal best. Thomas 219.52 a PB as well. Blutcher at 220.45 does enough to qualify as does Shanice Bryant of Barbados at 2 minutes 20.88. So the top five from that semifinal joining the three automatic qualifiers from the first semifinal through to the final of the under 17 girls 800 meters. Brian Knox her compatriot Daniel Skeet out of contention. Skeet was in that bubble position coming into this heat.

はい、改めましておはようございます。今日のオンラインワークショップ、画像のSEO対策、ワードプレイスでできることという内容で始めていこうと思います。で、初めての方も参加されてますけど、私、ベントいます。こんな顔してますけど、30年以上日本に住んでますので、中身はほとんど日本人だと思ってます。ワードプレイス自体は2014年から使っていて、今年5月にワードプレイス20周年なんですけど、大体その半分くらいを見てきたという感じです。人がなるほどと理解する瞬間が好きですので、毎回言ってるんですけど、私のオンラインワークショップも初めて聞いたとか、なるほどという瞬間があれば、ぜひぜひそれをチャットに入れていただいたり、ズームのグッドマークエモジレを反応していただいてもいいので、私もそれをエネルギーにして進めていきたいと思います。で、このオンラインワークショップというものなんですけれども、これはワードプレイスプロジェクトが公式に行っている学びの場というものになっています。ワードプレイスにトレーニングチームという教育教材を作っているチームがありまして、そこが主催しているものになります。コンセプトはともに学ぶ場ということなので、私が全部答えを知っているわけでもないですし、ぜひ皆さんお互いに質問し合ったり答えあったり、ズームのチャットでもいいですし、音声ビデオを使って質問してもOKなので、ぜひともに学ぶ一時間になったらいいなと思います。で、オンラインワークショップは録画されて、5日ワードプレイス.tvというサイトにアップされますので、参加できなかった人、途中で対してしなきゃいけなかった人も、後から見れるようになっています。そして最後、オンラインワークショップはワードプレイスが好きで、コミュニティに貢献したいという人は、誰でも開催することができます。トレーニングチーム、一応私トレーニングチームの代表のものなので、私に連絡を下さればどうやってオンラインワークショップが開催できるか教えしますので、ぜひご連絡ください。では、今日の内容に関する質問です。画像のSEO対策にどれくらい詳しいですかと、いつも参加者の皆さんの知識とかそういうのを知りたいなと思って尋ねているんですけど、この画像のSEO対策1から10。1はそもそも聞いたことありません。何のことかわかりませんという方は一応。10は、私は画像SEOのプロデストの仕事でやったりしてますという10。その10段階、ぜひズームのチャットの方に自分が何番くらいかを入れていただきたいなと思います。石原さん2番。聞いたことはあるけど、正直詳しいことあんまりわからないという感じでしょうかね。デニーさんも2。松野さんは4。石原さん3。アルトタク、WebP使う。いいですね。どちらも今日出てくる話題になります。いつも私スライドを共有していたので、リンクを皆さんに送ります。画面に表示しているものと全く一緒なんですけど、それぞれダウンロードをして、後からもう一回見直すとか、正直他の方と共有していただいても全然問題はないので、こういうことを勉強したようというのを記録、拡散していただけたらなと思います。はい、今、ズームのチャットの方に送りましたので、wordpress.tvの録画ページにも後からスライドを乗ります。さて、画像のS用対策。一般的にブログとかサイトガンドを見つかるか、ざっくり私なりにまとめたところ、検索結果を通してタイトにやってくる場合と、それ以外っていう2つに大きく分けられると思います。すごくざっくりなんですけど、それ以外というものも、去年英語のワークショップで、今までブレインストーミンをしたところ、20個の方法ぐらい、皆さん思いつきました。検索結果以外にもサイトに到達する方法。なんですけど、今日は検索結果の方にちょっと商店を当てて、この緑の矢印、ざっくり検索結果といっても、踏み込んでいくと実は、もっと分けられるんですね。一般的な検索結果というのは、グーグルとかビングに文字を入力して、それに合うサイトが出てくるという検索結果なんですけど、最近の検索エンジンは、もう少しいろんなバラエティの検索ができます。例えば、画像ピンポイントで検索する、動画を検索する、地図で検索をする。その他、ローカルな検索結果。よくスマホとかで今、ブラウザを開くと、一情報を利用しますかという選択肢が出て、ハイトースと自分の検索にGPS情報を合わせて、ローカルな検索結果を出してくれる。そういうことがあります。あとは、例えばショッピングの検索結果ですね。商品だけを探していると。SEOは検索エンジン最適化の英語のかしら文字なんですけど、一般的な検索結果に関するSEOがわりとよく話されますが、SEOの業界では画像SEO、動画SEO、地図SEO、ローカルSEO、ショッピングSEOっていうふうにそれぞれの検索結果に対してなるべく上位に乗るためにはどうしたらいいのかというようなそういう話があるんですね。なので、今日はその中でも画像のSEO、画像の検索結果で上位に出るためにはどうしたらいいかという話をしていきます。ちょっとGoogle出してみましょうか。google.jpでしたけど。ここで例えば彫刻機を探すと今これ普通の検索結果になってます。普通の検索結果でここに例えばイメージ、ショッピング、ビデオ、ブックとかもともとここにも出てくるんですけれども例えばイメージ、検索をすると彫刻機の画像がたくさん出てきます。今日お話するのはこの画像の検索をかけた時に自分のサイトの画像がなるべく上位に来るためにはどんなことができるかというそういうお話になります。今日の内容を大まかにまとめるとまず画像、エース用対策としてまずいい画像の選び方それからアップロード前に画像にほどこす処理。アップロード後に画像にほどこす処理そして最後をようやく画像をコンテンツに追加するという流れになってます。今日はワードプレスに特化したセッションなので一般的なエース用の話もしますけど中には本当にワードプレスピンポイントでこういうことを知っておくといいよというお話をします。はい。とりあえずここまでの中で質問とか訪ねておきたいことなかったでしょうか。大丈夫でしょうですかね。はい、ありがとうございます。大丈夫です。はい、ありがとうございます。では、みなさん内容に入っていきましょう。まず画像、エース用で一番大事なのはとりあえずいい画像を選ぶことです。で画像は必ず加えましょう。サイトを作るときに文字だけのサイトは避けて必ず何かしら画像は入れるようにしましょう。これは色んな意味からメリットがあるんですけどまず画像のある方が人の目を引く効果があります。例えばこのスライドも私が見せてたら面白くないスライドなんですね。文字だけで面白くないんですけど一個だけポンと画像を載せただけでなんかすごく目がきかれるというかちょっと魅力的なスライドに変わると思います。私はそれを狙って画像をつけたんですけどサイトも一緒です。文字だけバーと並んでいるように画像があると人の目を引くとで画像はコンテンツの理解を助ける。補足資料みたいな感じで内容にあった画像をつけるとコンテンツの理解を助ける。3つ目なんですけど使った画像がコンテンツそのものよりも話題を呼ぶこともある。これは特に自分のその情報を拡散したい時とか広く知ってほしい時にポイントなんですけど私はアメリカ人じゃないのでそんなに詳しいわけじゃないんですけど時々アメリカの政治家が例えばツイッターでこんなことを流したとかどっかの使用がこんなことを言ったっていうのをキャプチャーにしてどんどん拡散するとかそういうことって結構SNS上であるんですねもはや説明とか何もつけずに写真1枚だけをどんどんどんどん広げていってお話題が広がるっていうようなことがネット上の世界ではあり得ますなのでもし皆さんもバズるコンテンツを作りたければ画像は必ず加えて画像から自分のコンテンツにやってくる人もいる可能性があるのでつけていきましょうで画像をつける時可能な限りオリジナルの画像を使うといいですこれはまたいくつか理由があるんですけど本当に本物に見えます私が今回使っている画像は全部フリーサイトから持ってきたものなのであまり私らしくはないですよねなんかどこかから持ってきた画像なんだろうなという雰囲気が漂っていますなるべく自分で撮った写真を使うとサイトが本物に合いなりそのサイトの作成者管理者も本当の人間なんだなというイメージがちょっとつきますまたサイトのユニークさが増すでこれは画像SE用的にもそうなんですけどGoogleさんは検索エンジンさんは同じ画像が使われていた時にそれを検索結果でランキング下げるという処理をしていますパッと見ていただいても全部これ上の方オリジナルの写真ばっかりなんですねもしどこかの画像を流用した場合正しく流用していたとしてもその画像が検索結果の上位に来ることは珍しくなってしまいますなるべくオリジナルの画像を使った方が検索結果では上位に来ることが知られていますそれからライセンスを気にすることがないフリーサイトとかから画像を使う時もいろんなライセンスがついているので自分の画像を使うとそういうことをしなくていいというそういうメリットがあります石原さんがチャットの方で動画のサムネイルも画像のSEOから応用がききそうですねまさにそうですYouTubeのよく見られる視聴回数が増える動画っていうのはサムネイルもものすごい凝っているものが多いです本来たぶん一番最初サムネイルという意図だったんですけど今はもうサムネイルだけを別に画像編集で作って動画に付与するなんてことも出てきてますねなるほどありがとうございますちょっとライセンスの話の関連なんですけど画像の著作情報は技術使用他のサイトの画像を利用する時はライセンスを必ず確認して条件通りに著作情報を記述しましょうこれ当たり前だと思っていただけたらバッチリです何も新しい情報ではないんですけどネットで無料画像と検索した時に出てくる画像が著作情報を記述不要という意味ではないんですね使うのは無料だけどどこから持ってきたかは書いてとかこの条件内であれば無料で使っていようというようにライセンスがついている画像が大半ですもしライセンスに違反した場合ライセンスを持っている人がグルグルなどの検索エンジンにこの画像は私の画像を違反して使ってますということを通知することができるんです画像SEO的に一度通知が入っちゃうと全部ランキングが下がっちゃいます一度無くしたある意味信用というのを検索エンジンの中でもう一回作り上げるというのはかなり難しいと言われているので画像SEO的にもライセンスは必ず意識して正しく利用するようにしましょうここでもう一つ注意はオリジナルの画像を利用する場合も個人を特定できる情報が含まれているならば個人の許可をもらってから利用しましょうパーソナリティー件とかそういう権利が付いています日本ではあんまりこれはまだ問題にはなってないと思うんですけど例えばヨーロッパ10年ほど前から忘れられる権利とかそういう権利が歌われています検索エンジンに対して私の個人情報を消してと訴えることができるんですなので例えば誰かが自分の画像を利用した時に私の個人情報だから消してくださいと言ったりしてその情報をネット上で見つけにくくすることができます日本ではまだあんまりされたことはないんですけど制度としては確か利用できるはずですそういう観点からもオリジナルの画像を利用する時個人を特定できるものが含まれていれば必ずその個人から許可をもらってから利用するようにしましょうなので例えば極端な話ブログに例えば会社の飲み会の写真を載せるとかお正月に集まった家族の写真を載せるとかもしそういうことをされるなら厳密にはその写真に写っている一人一人から写真を使っていいよねという許可をもらって載せることが一番正しいやり方ですちょっと面倒になる時もあるのでそれぞれの裁量に任せますけど正しくは個人から許可をもらってから利用しましょうとはいっても難しいです自分で写真を撮ってそれを使うというのはプロのカベラマンでないとなかなか思うように写真が撮れないとか今すぐ写真が欲しいという時にちょうどいい写真が手元になる場合があります先ほど送った資料にもこれ全部リンクが貼ってあるので後でぜひ見ていただきたいんですけど無料画像が見つかるサイトいろいろ載せていますいくつかだけ紹介しようと思いますがまず一つ目がワードプレスプロジェクトの公式ディレクトリーというものです残念ながら日本語のサイトはないんですけど英語で検索をかけていただけるとこれはワードプレスのコミュニティのメンバーたちがワードプレスに提出をした無料画像です6,468多いのか少ないのかちょっとあれなんですけど毎日これは増えてます一応このリンクを押すことで自分の写真もここにアップすることができますパッと見た感じでいいものが多いんですよいろんな画質のいいものもありますしもしワードプレスに貢献したいという方はこの写真投稿が一番楽な貢献方法だと言われていますワードプレスのプロフィールを見ていただくとワードプレスのプロフィールなんですけどどのチームに貢献したかというバッチが乗るんですねフォトチームは一個でも写真を提出してそれが認められたらこのバッチが不要されることになっているので私もワードプレスに貢献していますということを胸を張って言えるようになるんですねなのでフォトディレクトリーおすすめですリンクを見ていただきたいと思いますイシャラさんから建物とか欧米が中心なので日本の画像をアップロードすると逆光を浴びそうそうですねいくつか日本のミートアップでも確かフォトモークというのをやっていますみんなで写真を撮ってここに写真をアップして日本の画像を増やそうということをミートアップでやっているのでワードプレスのフォトディレクトリーそれからオープンバースオープンバースイントネーションはどうなんだろうブームのチャットにもリンクを送りますこれは去年かおととしまではクリエイティブコモンズと言われていたサイトですそれがワードプレスプロジェクトの中に吸収されたんですけれどもこちらは1億1,1001001,0001億6億ってことですかね6億の画像と今回こっちはオーディオ音線も入っています衝撃用が可能とか衝撃は出来ないとかちょっと条件はついているんですけど一応誰もが使って無料で使ってそういう画像がここにあります今、オーディオと両方出ているので、ちょっと画像だけ見ていくと、こんな感じでちょっとこう、何だろう、ドアがちょっと違うかもしれないですけどいい写真がここにも見つかる時があります。デニーさん、明日、東京でフォトウォークあります。あ、明日あるんですね。あの、ぜひ皆さんもそのワードプレスに貢献をしてみてください。もう一個だけ紹介するのは、これ日本のサイトです。横断といまして、このサイト何がいいかというと、複数の無料画像サイトを横断して検索してくれるというサイトなんです。なので、しかも日本語で検索ができます。なので、例えばクッキーという日本語で検索をかけると、今最初これ、アンスプラッシュというサイトの検索結果。その次、ピックサベーというサイトの検索結果。さらにカブムピックス、ISOリパブリックなどなどなど、どんどんどんどん世界中の色んな無料画像サイトを一気に検索してくれる日本のサービス、無料サービスなので、こちらもおすすめです。横断。もう一つお話ししたいのが、このインスタントイメージというプラグイン。これはワードプレスのプラグインで、日本語への翻訳が進んでいます。完全に日本語ではないんですけれども、日本語の翻訳も進んでいます。これは、海外では主流のアンスプラッシュ、ピックスベー、ピックスルー。これ、それぞれ無料画像サイトなんですけど、それぞれのサイトをワードプレスアドミンのダッシュボードの中から直接画像を検索してインポートができるというプラグインなので、わざわざそれぞれのサイトに出ていかなくても、ご自身のサイトの中から画像を検索をして、メディアライブラリーにインポートできる。なんなら、ブロックエディターの中からも直接検索をして、インポートをして投稿とか固定ページに貼り付けるということができる、結構万能なプラグインなので、おすすめです。いい画像を選ぶという話をしてきました。石原さんが質問です。提供しているサイトによって、画像の傾向が違ってくるのでしょうか?はい、違ってきます。違ってくると思います。なので、私もやっぱり自分の好みというサイトはありますね。私はピクサベーとかわりと使うんですけど、例えばペクセルズというのは、白人じゃない方々の画像を多く載せているサイトということで有名です。世界のいろんな人種の人を積極的に、積極的に取り上げている。結構、今までの従来の無料画像サイトだと、本当に白人の欧米っぽい人たちばっかり映っている画像が多いんですけど、ペクセルズはそういうのじゃない人もたくさんいるということが一応、歌われているサイトになってきます。あとはですね、チェックの度合い。例えば、ワードベースホートディレクトリーはわりとしっかりした写真が多いんですけど、マイスは少ないですね。オープンバースはもうちょっとチェックが緩いので、いろんな写真が載るけれども、数は多いという感じなので、いろいろ結構は違うと思います。画像選びについて、なるほどありがとうございます。画像選びについて、他に質問とかないでしょうか?はい、ありがとうございます。フィグまでアンスプラッシュのプラグに使う人多いですね。そうですね、アンスプラッシュこれですけれども、プラグインで自動的に引っ張り込むというのがいいです。特に、このインスタントイメージというのは、アルトテキスト、後で話しますけど、大体テキストとかも自動でインポートしてくれるんですよ。画像インポートした時点で、それが全部設定されているということになっています。さて、画像を用意しました。自分の使いたい画像を用意しました。それをワードベースに早速アップロードして使いたいと何がちなんですけれども、画像SEO的にはアップロードする前に施し取りがいくつかあります。大きく4つ紹介します。まず、適切なファイルフォーマットを選ぶ。画像の寸法を調整する。画像のファイルサイズを圧縮する。そして画像のファイル名を入る。この4つを見ていこうと思います。まずは適切なファイルフォーマットを選ぶ。先ほどWebPという話題も出ましたけれども厳密な正解というものはないですが頻繁に推奨されるフォーマットがあります。まずはJPEG。これ結構一般的な画像の種類ファイルフォーマットですね。ただJPEGは透明度の情報が入っていないファイルになります。なので通過性のある背景の画像とかを利用する場合はPNGというのが割と種類かなと思います。先ほど責任さんでしたけどな。WebPという話も出てました。WebPというのはここ2、3年ですかね出てきた新しいファイルフォーマットでJPEGもPNGも包括するようなファイル形式で通過情報も出せますし一般的にはもっとファイルサイズが小さくなるはずです。同じくらいがもっと小さいか大きくなることはありません。1個だけ注意は古いブラウザーはまだ避たいようなんですね。日本でも今だに時々インターネットエクスプローラーを使っている方とかいますけれどもそういうのでは表示されないのでたぶん将来僕はこれがメインになるかなと思うんですけどそれはちょっと数年もしかしたらまって古いブラウザーが本当に無くなるのを待った方がいいかなという感じがします。ロゴやアイコンはSVGというのがおすすめです。JPEGとかPNGというのは拡大縮小をするとピクセルが見えてくるんですね。拡大するとガタガタにピクセルが見えるんですけどSVGというのはどれだけ拡大してもガタガタにはならないファイル形式なんです。いつもきれいに輪郭が整っている形になります。例えばそのサイトのロゴとかアイコンはいろんなところにいろんな大きさで登場すると思うんですね。こういうのはSVGがいいと思います。SVGはワードプレースにはアップロードできないファイル形式なんです。ここはちょっとプラグインを使うとかSVGを可能にするプラグインというのはあるのでそういうのを使ってサイトに載せるのがいいかなと思います。例えばアイフォンとかで撮った画像形式というのはこれもどれでもないんです。さらに別なアップル式のオリジナルの画像形式なので画像の形式ファイルフォーマットを変更することが時々必要になります。その時おすすめなのがスクーシというアプリでネット上のこれもオープンソースのアプリなのでいつまでも無情で使えます。残念ながら日本語はないんですけどそんなに難しくないです。ここに写真をドラッグ&ドロップを引け、あとはファイル形式を変えるファイルを圧縮するとかそういう作業もできるファイルのソフトなのでおすすめです。デニサン、OSSなんですね、オープンソースなんですね、ファイ。ファイル形式が決まったあと次にやるのは画像の寸法の調整です。これはファイルのサイズ調整とは別です。ファイルのサイズを変える前に画像の寸法を調整します。つまりもう何ピクセルかけ何ピクセルの画像かその拡大縮小をします。こちらのサイト非常に面白かったので皆さんとも共有しますけれども世界の皆さんがどんな画面を使ってネットを利用しているか、統計を取っている研究機関がある。今ズームのチャットに送ったのはこれ日本のデータなんですけど今日は読み込みが若干遅い。下にいずれここにグラフが出てきます。この上、これトップ6なんですけれども日本で一番利用されている画像サイズは画面サイズは1920x1080ピクセルです。これがもう14%グラフでましたね。転線はデータ無しなのでこれを無視していただいておけなんですけどこれです。この緑が1920x1080ピクセル。その下を見ていくと上位に来ているのは390x844これ携帯ですね。1536x375ポイントは全部これより小さいです。1920x1080より小さいですね。だからどんだけ大きくても今の一般の人たちの使ってる画面ってこれくらいなんです。画面の大きさが。ただデジガメとか性能が上がっているのでデジガメの写真をそのまま見ると例えば3000とか4000ピクセルのものすごく大きな画像を撮ったりするんですね。その3000、4000ピクセルの画像をそのままサイトに載せるとどこかで圧縮作業が必要になります。サーバー上でも圧縮されるし実際にエツラン社がサイトを開いたときにブラウザの中でもさらに圧縮がかかったりします。圧縮が必要な度に時間が取られますよね、画像の読み込みにGoogleの検索結果に一つ大きく関与しているのは読み込み時間です。もし画像の読み込みが遅ければ画像SEOも下がってしまいます。ちょっと周り行くといい方をしましたけれども何が言いたいかというと日本で最も良い利用の多いモニターは最大でも1920かけ1800ってきてもしお使いになる画像がこれよりもあまりにも大きいんだったらまずはサイズを小さくしてからサイトにアップする方が豊か的です。これより大きいのを使っても圧縮されますから。例外として例えば写真家が自分の写真を売るサイトを持っているとかダウンロード用の画像を提供したいということがあると思います。こういった場合もなんですけどサイト上にはフル画質の画像は見せないでください。3000とか4900ピクセルの画像をサイトに載せちゃうと読み込みに時間がかかってSEO的にマイナスになります。のでサイト上にはそれを圧縮した画像を見せて例えばそれをクリックした時に巨大な画像がダウンロードされるとか別にダウンロードリンクを設けてサイト上に表示はされないけどサイト上に表示されるという仕組みにするのがいいと思います。ちょっと戻りますけど1920、1080ピクセル今後時代とともにこれは大きくなるとは思うのでこれに厳密に従う必要はないんですけど言いたいのは要するにあまりにも大きければ小さくした方がいいと。あとは例えば今見えているこの紫の画像はだいたい画面幅の3分の1ぐらいですねなのであまり重要な画像でもないのでこのピクセル数のさらに3分の1の大きさでも全然こと足りるという画像なんですよなので例えば372だから700×300とかそれくらい圧縮した上でサイトにアップロードしても全然足りるということなんで自分がその画像をサイト上でどうやって使いたいかというのに合わせて寸法を調整するといいと思うはい、ちょっと早口なんですけど質問があったら是非挟めていただいて大丈夫ですのでチャットに落としたりしてくださいさてファイル形式が決まりましたファイルの寸法も調整しました続いて行うのがファイルサイズの圧縮ですこれは寸法とは別なんですね寸法は同じで品質を変えずに圧縮を行うことができますこれも先ほどのスクッシュおすすめですしイメージオプティムというこれはダウンロードして自分のコンピュータ上で使うソフトウェアになりますなのでスクッシュはネットに自分の写真をアップロードしなきゃいけないですけどプライバシーとか懸念のある人はこれをご自分のパソコンにダウンロードして利用することが可能ですファイト自体は英語なんですけどこれもオープンソースで翻訳の方を見るとジャパニーズがあると書いているのでおそらくインストール後に日本語で利用することが可能だと思いますファイルサイズの圧縮の時に一つ考えるといいのがこのXF情報が必要かどうかということですXF情報というのはカメラが画像に付与しているメタ情報見えない情報です実際の画像の中ではなくて裏にファイルの中にいつどこでどんなカメラを使ってどんな設定で写真を撮ったかなどを記録しているのがXF情報写真をたくさん撮る方にとってこれは整理をするときに便利なんですね例えば2022年の写真はどこだろうもっと言うと2022年10月15日の写真はどこだろうとかですねあるいはあのヨーロッパ旅行で撮った写真だけ出したいからヨーロッパで撮った写真というふうに検索をかけるとこのXF情報を元にファイルの仕分けができますネット上にアップした場合サイトを見る人も皆さんこのXF情報を見ようと思えば見れるなのでサイト作成者がいつどこにいてどんなカメラを使ってどんな設定にして写真を撮ったかという情報が世界にまる見えなくてそれで全然いいよという方はいいんですけれども結局ファイルサイズを取っていますこの情報はなのでアスクという観点からはXF情報を全部取り除いたほうがファイルサイズが小さくなってそして読み込みが早くなりますという仕組みになっていますXF情報はこのイメージオプティムとかスクッシュの中で削除することが可能ですもうそのアスクの時にXF情報削除というチェックボクスがあるのでそれをクリックするとそして最後画像のファイル名今まで色々変更していく中で多分変な画像のファイル名になっていますだいたいカメラで撮ると記号だらけだしアスクソフトとかに通すと最後にコンプレストアスクという単語がついたりさらに自分のダウンロードファイルに同じ名前の画像があるとカッコ1カッコ2とかどんどん数字がついていくので最後に必ず画像のファイル名を変えるようにしましょう検索エンジンは資重が下がっているんですけど一応今もその画像のファイル名を見て画像の中身を推測していますので画像に表示されているもののキーワードを単的にファイル名に入れるようにしましょう検索エンジンのためにここちょっとお差方なんですけど単語と単語の間にはハイフを利用するのがネットの決まりですスペースは絶対に使わないですしアンダーバーというのも特殊なときにしか使わないので基本的に画像のファイル名には使いませんなぜハイフンかというとちょっとこのスライドで実演します今ここにですねPlateOfChocolateCookies.pngというファイル名があるとしますでダブルクリックしますはいチョコレートが選択されましたこっちは同じファイル名でアンダーバーが付いていますチョコレートというのをダブルクリックするとアンダーバーを超えてファイル名が全部選択されたんですでプログラミング言語的には一応ハイフンが単語を区切るでアンダーバーはその先も一つの単語としてという使い訳が実はあるんですので例えばこっちだとですねPlateOfVanillaCookiesという風に簡単にこのチョコレートVanillaに変えることができるけどこっちは簡単には変えられないですねプログラミングの中でアンダーバーを使うことはあります全く使わないわけではないんですけど基本的にはハイフンが主流ですデニーさん選択しやすいからアンダーバー好きですこれも好みです検索位置もバカではないのでこれを逆にしたから間違えてことはないんですけどオサフォーとして普通はハイフンということになっていますはいなるほどありがとうございますここまでがアップロード前にすることです画像を決めてアップロードする前にやる処理何かちょっと質問とかなかったでしょうか大丈夫でしょうかイシャラさん Web スクレーピングとかでは差が出そうですねこれですかこの5名の話ですかそれでもここまでトータルでそうですね何か差が出そうな気はしますググルさんファイル名の比重が下がっていてもうちょっと後で話す本文の方が今は重要になってきているとは言うんですけどやっぱりSEO 的には全く影響がないわけではないのでここからハイフン中心に使うといいと思います縦アップロード前にいろいろ処理を施しました実際に画像をメディアライブラリーにアップロードしましたその後メディアライブラリーにアップロードして投稿とかコンテンツに入れる前に施す処理をいくつか紹介します特にワートブレイズの場合画像メディアライブラリーにアップロードするとこういう画面が出ますよね結構右に設定があります大体テキストタイトル説明大体テキストは有名になってきたので皆さん割と設定されるとはですけどタイトルとキャプションと説明はそもそも何なのか必要なのかということはちょっと分かりにくいんですね私もワードフェイス使いたての頃一体これ何なんだっていう感じだったんでこの辺りを簡単に説明したいと思いますまず大体テキストアルトテキストとも言われますけれどもこれは画像が表示されないときに代わりに表示されるものですだからそのページの中で何かの理由で画像が出ないときに空白になるんじゃなくてここには本来こういう画像がありますっていう説明として表示されるテキストですこれはそのS用的にもあとはアクセシビリティ的にも非常に重要だということが世界中で言われていて付けている人は増えていると思い画像が表示されないことなんてあるんだろうかと日本にいるとあんまりなじみがないんですけれども例えば発展途情報とかインターネットの回線速度が日本より全然遅いくにってあるんですね結構日本って本当に早いので全然遅いくにっての世界中にそういう国ではブラウザー表示しないという設定にしてインターネットを利用している方も結構いるんですねその回線が遅いので不必要な情報にはなるべく使いたくないそういうことがあるのでそうしたサイトを出している場合はあんまり気にしなくていいかもしれないですけど世界に何か情報を配信したいというときにはやっぱり画像を見てない人もいるということは抑えてサイトを作るといいと思いますあともう一つはニューザーが支援技術を使ってサイトを営業している例えば目の見えない方がサイトリーダーというソフトウェアを使ったりしてオンラインのサイトを見ることがある目の見えない方にとってはいくら画像が良くてもかっこよくてもその情報は伝わらないのでサイトリーダーは大体テキストを読み上げてここにはこんな画像がありますということを伝えているんですねなのでこういった方々が世界にいるということを抑えた上で大体テキストぜひつけるといいと思いますW3というアクセシビリティの組織なんですけれどもこちらのほうでどういうときにアルトテキストを使うといいかどういうときに使わないほうがいいかという情報を提供してますこれを日本語に綺麗にまとめたサイトがなかなか見つからなかったんですねW3も日本語にこのページを翻訳してないですし日本で大体テキストが必要かどうかというフローチャートみたいなのを綺麗にまとめているところがなかなか見つけられませんでしたというのは大体テキストはいつも使うべきではないです使うべきときがあってそして使う書き方もお砂法っていうのがあるので今はしょうがないですけどこれをGoogle翻訳にでもかませてぜひ読んでもらうとそうなんだって面白いと思います私がほんとにザックにまとめた場合画像に重要なテキストが含まれている場合そのテキストは大体テキストにも記載されるべき例えば今この画像文字がたくさん書いてますね私たちはこれを見るとプログラミングのエラーメッセージだなというのがわかるんですけどこれは文字である以上でもこの文字は書くべきです具体的にどういうエラーが表示されているかということまでも大体テキストには書くべきです画面にエラーが出ているだけじゃなくて画面にこれこれのエラーが何秒にもわたって表示されているみたいな感じにすべき逆に画像が単なる装飾の場合には大体テキストは記載しないべきです本当に装飾的に画像を使っているときは大体テキストは記載しないというのがルールはいこれはアルトテキスト残る3つタイトル キャクション 説明これはごめんなさいもう1つスライドがありました大体テキストを更新する際の注意点これはワードプレイスシステムの癖ですメディアライブラリーでもう既にコンテンツで利用されている画像の大体テキストは更新されませんつまり今日この話を聞いて僕全然画像に大体テキストつけてなかった今から戻ってメディアライブラリーで一生懸命これ全部加工と思ってもここで今書いてももう既に作った投稿とか固定ページの画像には生えされないこれはコンテンツの利用というかそういう仕組みになっているので既にもう投稿とか固定ページに入れちゃった画像に関しては地道に1個1個ブロック設定の中から大体テキストを描いていくしかないですでアイキャッチ画像がもっとやらしくてアイキャッチ画像は固定ページとか投稿の中で大体テキストを設定する機能がないんです今ブロックエディターに今までのクラシックエディターもなかったですので既に使っているアイキャッチ画像にはアルトテキストがついていないのでどうしなきゃいけないかというとアイキャッチ画像を削除固定ページや投稿更新その上でメディアライブラリーで画像に大体テキストを付与そしてもう一回固定ページ投稿に戻ってきてそのアイキャッチ画像をもう一回設定するこうするとようやくアルトテキストが設定されるんですけどちょっとこれはワードプレスの癖なので覚えておいてください松野さんどれに設定されていてされていないか分からないそうですよね今日から設定するのがいいと思います今日からメディアライブラリーにアップロードした時点で大体テキストを入れておくというふうにして今までは申しわないというのがいいと思います石原さんすでにメディアライブラリーにある画像でも新たに投稿内に設置する時は後からメディアライブラリーで設定した大体テキストが適用されるのでしょうかこれは適用されます新しく今から入れる場合にはメディアライブラリーの大体テキストは引っ張られますだから不思議なんです同じ画像をこっちの投稿とか圧の投稿に入れていても違う大体テキストが付けられるんです多分それを狙ってワードプレスはこういう仕組みなんだと思うんですよ同じ大体テキストを無理矢理引っ張るんじゃなくて個別に設定可能に下がゆえの癖なのでちょっと注意をしてくださいイシャラさんアクセシビリティの評価ツールとかを使うとページ内の大体テキストのうむくらいを判定してくれそうですねあとはご自身のサイトの重要なページだけちょっと地道に確認するっていうのもありかもしれない昔の投稿全部さかのぼって買えるっていうのはめんどくさいですけど例えばホーム画面とか音合わせページとかページを重点的に見直すってことはありかもしれないはい今日多分これ10分くらいオーバーすると思いますいません情報たくさん用意しすぎたのでもし11時にご対処しなきゃいけない方がいたら全然それはOKですのでちょっと今日10分くらいオーバーすると思いますさていよいよタイントルキャプション説明これらは何なのかという話ででタイトルがメディアライブラリ内およびテンプファイルのページで利用されますどういうことかというとここに一つテストサイト用意しましたでメディアライブラリを開いてデフォルトだと多分こうですねこうなってるんですけどこちらからその一覧表示に変えた時にここに見えているこれが画像のタイトルですなので例えば編集をしてタイトルタイトルこれかタイトルですねこれを例えばウェブページウェブページにして更新をするともう一回ライブラリに戻ってここが変わりましたなのでタイトルはメディアライブラリの整理に使うものです出てこないのでご自分で例えば検索をかける時に見つけたい画像が見つかりやすくするための機能ですのでデフォルトのままでいいかなという方は多分デフォルトのままでも ok だと思います画像がたくさんあって整理したい方はこれを変更してもいいかなと思いますcaption というのはコンテンツ内で画像の下に表示される文字のことですでこれ最近の研究で発表されてたんですけど人間ってそのウェブサイトを開いた時大々まず斜め読みをするらしいです本当に自分の探していた情報なのか自分の興味にあったサイトなのかを確認してから実際に本本読み始めるらしいんですねで斜め読みをする時にだいたい人の目が止まるのは見出しリストブロックなどを使った目字画像と画像のcaption画像のcaptionも斜め読みの段階で目に止まっているらしいなので装飾的な画像は必要ないんですけれども本文と関連のある大事な画像に関してはcaption はつけていった方がseo 的に大事になります人がもっと止まりやすく止まって自分の内容を読んでくれるためにcaption はぜひつけるといいと思います石原さんメニュアライブラリーの一覧形式のフォーマットがあるの初めて知りましたわたらららこれはたぶん昔からありますよ新発見ですねこれ一括で削除とかできるので時々私も使いますはいデニーさんseo というか読んでもらえていいですねそうですねcaption オススメでもう一つ説明っていうのがありますタイトルもちょっと飛ばしたんですけどメディアライブラリー内の他にテンプファイルのページで利用されますこの説明もテンプファイルのページで利用されますさて皆さんに質問ですテンプファイルのページというのはワードプレースの公式機能なんですけれども聞いたことある方どれくらいいますかチャットの方にも聞いたことある聞いたことないちょっと書いてみてくださいテンプファイルのページというワードプレースの機能です知らなかった知らなかった英語だと確かタッチメントページだったかな私もあのなんだっけそれぞれの画像のページ私も2、3年カスタマサポートをやっていてこの機能について質問が来たことはいかもなかったです多分ほとんどの方は利用してないと思いますのでテンプファイルのページという機能を使ってない人はタイトルと説明は不要です気にしなくてもいいテンプファイルのページというのを使っている人は書いた方がいいですけど何のことかお見せしたいと思いますここに画像ペット貼りましたリンク先にテンプファイルのページリンクというボタンを押すとURLにリンクするかメディアファイルにリンクするかテンプファイルのページにリンクするかこの機能もしこれをつけた場合これで更新しますこの固定ページを見てみましょう画像だけのページなんですけどこの画像をクリックすると固定ページのファイルテンプファイルのページに飛びます押してみますじゃんこれですこれですここに上にあるのはこちらで言うタイトル下にあるこの文字列が説明なんですねたぶん一番最初これは昔のワードフェースからあるのでたぶん写真かとかそういう方が1個1個の画像に対して投稿とか固定ページを作らなくてもいいようにメディアライブラリ内で例えばこういうテンプファイルのページができて自分の画像をみんなに紹介できるとかそういう意図で作られた機能なのかなと思うんですけど実際に使ってる人を見たことはないです私の世界が狭いだけかもしれないですほんとはたくさんいるとは思うんですけど私は出会ったことはないですはい見たことあります石根さんごくというかうまく利用していたサイトですかねなんかあの迷い込んだそんな感じですよねたぶんなので結論から言うとだいたいテキストは多くの場につけたほうがいいのでこれですねだいたいテキストはつけましょうタイトルはメディアライブラリの整理が大事な人にとってはつけておくといいですキャプションはseを的に重要なのでキャプションは装飾的な画像でない限りぜひつけていきましょう説明はぶっちゃけ不要というのが私の本音ですデニーさんも知識としてなんとなく知ってたけど使わないですねという感じになりますはいこれでようやく画像をアップロードして必要な設定をしてここからコンテンツに追加していきますコンテンツに配置するときに一番大事なのは画像と関連するテキスト文字を近くに配置することですまず人間はその文章を読んでいるときに文脈があると画像の意図がわかりやすくなるので近くにあるといいんですけれどもこれは検索エンジンの仕組みからもう関連するテキストの近くに置くといいです先ほどそのファイル名はもう今あまり検索エンジンは重視してないという話をしたんですけど何を重視しているかというと画像周辺の本文自体を検索エンジンは見ているらしいんですで画像に対してそのHTML構造の中で一番近い文章は何かというとまずキャプションですキャプションがまず一番近いのでキャプションから画像の中身を推測しますそしてさらに本文自体の中でその画像の位置を理解してでどういうことが書いてあるかというそこから画像の中身を推測しているらしいですGoogle社の方のインタビューみたいなのを読んで知ったんですけどなので画像と関連する文字はなるべく近くに置くようにしていきましょうデニーさんやっぱり本文も書いてあるんですね関係あるらしいですデニーさんもなるほどありがとうございますそして投稿には必ずアイキャッチ画像を追加しましょう皆さんラインとかでも何か自分URLを共有するとそれがポッて画像が出てちょっとプレビューがつくようになってますねラインだけじゃなくてFacebookとかTwitterとかなんですけどその時にポッと出るプレビュー画像が基本的にはワードプレイスの場合アイキャッチ画像になってますで画像SEOというのはいろんな人がもっと自分のサイトに来るように設定しようというのがいいとなのでSNSでご自身があまり共有はしなくても他の人が共有した時にやっぱり画像がポッと出た方が自分のコンテンツにやってくる可能性が上がるので投稿には必ずアイキャッチ画像を設定するようにしましょうおさらいですけどアイキャッチ画像を設定する前にメディアダイブラリン内でアルトテキスト大体テキストが設定されていることを作りましょう松村さん画像のファイル名も画像の内容にした方がいいという話を聞いて苦労を覚えましたが画像のファイル名は僕がいつもやっているのは2,

5で端的に何が出ているかだからチョコレートクッキーとかですねただそのチョコレートクッキーが例えば私が作ったチョコレートクッキーなのかこのレシピの完成図なのかそのプレゼントなのかもらったものなのかっていうその文脈はやっぱりキャプションの中とかその説明が加わると思うんですよファイル名は短くてもOKただそれ以上の説明は画像の近くの本文中どこかにあるといいかなと思うコメントに対する返答になったでしょうかはいたくさんちょっと早口になって情報共有してきましたが最後追加情報というのがありますCDN構造化データこれいずれもちょっとテクニカルな話なので今日は正面的な部分だけ説明をして興味のある方はGoogleで検索していただくともっともっと情報が日本語でも出てくるので見ていただくといいと思いますただそのやっぱ画像のSEOを考えたときにこだわりたいっていう方はここらへんまでやるといいと思うので紹介したいと思いますまずCDNというのはコンテンツデリバリーネットワークというものなんですけど画像の配信にはCDNを利用しようと書いていますCDNというのはユーザイに早くコンテンツを送り届けることを目的としています例えば私北海道にいるんですけど北海道でサプロのごめんなさい東京のサーバーのホームページを読み込むよりサプロのサーバーのホームページを読み込んだ方が知理的に近いので読み込みが早くなる基本的にはやっぱり東京からインターネット改善の伝線を今は光なのでピカピカピカとこ中でライトが光ってそれがずっとたどってきて北海道に来るよりかは早くなるんですねなのでCDNというのはメインのサイトはもしかしたら東京にあるかもしれないけれどもそのサイトのコピーキャッシュというんですけどキャッシュを別が知理的に分散したサーバー上にも保管をしてエツランシャに一番近いサーバーのコピーを送り届けるという仕組みがCDNです何でこれを取り上げているかというと検索エンジンは画面の読み込み時間をかなり重視しています画面の読み込みが遅いとそれだけでランキングが下がっちゃうんですねなので特に画像の多い人とか放画室の画像をたくさん載せているサイトを持っていれば絶対CDNは使ってくださいCDNを提供しているホスティング会社がかなり多くなってきましたので自身のホスティング会社と確認をしてこのサービスを提供しているなら使うといいともにもう無料でCDNを提供している会社も増えてきてますし中にはまだ有用サービスとして提供している場合もあるんですけど自分のニーズに合わせてこれは導入するといいと思います松野さん撮影した元のファイル名は残しておきたいご自身の整理用とオンライン用SE用用ってもしかしてコピーを作って保管してもいいのかもわかんないですけどねどうだろうデニーさん無料のCDNってあるんですねあるんですか?無料のCDN検索で出てきたんですか?無料のCDN無料のCDNサービス10,000これちょっと私読んでないですけどハブスポットわりと信頼できる情報サイトだと思うので皆さんにもちょっとリンクを共有しておきますいいですねCDN画像よりも動画を持ってる人とかそういう人はもっともっと結構メリットが出てくると思うんですけどはいもう一つお話ししておきたかったのは画像と構造化データです構造化データというのは検索エンジンがコンテンツの内容とか種類をより理解しやすくするために復活するメタ情報メタ情報っていうのは裏にあってコンピュータしか見えていない情報ですね表向きにはサイトには乗らない裏に乗っている情報ちょっと構造化データもたくさん種類があるので今は画像に特化すると検索エンジンは商品なのかレシピに関する画像なのかということを画像に関しては見ていますこの画像が商品の画像ですということを構造化データというメタ情報を復活することができるあるいはレシピとして例えば私たち人間がウェブサイトを見てて一番何々をする隣に画像があって二番何々をする画像があって三番何々をする画像があった場合一番に対応する画像だな二番に対応する画像だなということを自然と人間は理解してが検索エンジンは可視枠はなってきてるんですけど簡単にそれが分からないんですねなので構造化データっていうのは裏でそれを紐づけるデータになります画像の場合は商品やレシピについてよくつけますこれがついてると一気にSEOのランキングが高くなる例えば先ほどのこのチョコクッキー一番最初に検索したページで左下にレシピってついてますねこれレシピの構造化データがついた画像ですで一番上のロックを見るとここ中5個はレシピなんですこの方だけついてないんですけれども他の方はみんなレシピに関する画像だとこちらはストアって書いてるんですけどこれは商品です商品の写真だってことをGoogleさんに伝えていて構造化データがついてますで 上を見るとだいたいこれがついてる画像ばっかりですこれ1個ついてないのありましたねここまたついてないのがありましたけど上位に来ているサイトはだいたいプロダクトかレシピなんです今回は食べ物を検索しているのでそうなんですけどもしご自分も商品とかレシピに関する画像を拡散使っている場合はSEO的に構造化データを付与するといいです構造化データをつけるのを助けるプラグインがいくつかありますちょっとこれ英語のプラグインばっかりだと思うんですけれどもプラグインはあるのでちょっと調べてつけるといいと思う松野さんジェットパックに画像CDN機能があって一度キャッシュされるけれどファイル名が同じ場合にその画像を同じファイル名で更新しても新しい画像に置き換わらないこれにくらいは今は分かりませんなるほどジェットパックというのはプラグインですよねで そのプラグインにCDN機能があるんだけれども一度キャッシュされると同じ画像を同じ名前の画像を置き換えた場合置き換わらないそれは迷惑ですねそれはちょっと迷惑ですけど何かそういうこと聞いたことある気がします私も今もどうなんだろうなちょっと分からないですけどキャッシュってやっぱり定期的に更新しないといけないのでちょっとこれはどうなんでしょうねけど 情報ありがとうございます今日の内容は最後ですオープングラフタグで 構造化データは検索エンジンにどういった種類の情報感を教えるメタ情報でしたオープングラフタグはSNSサービスに情報を伝えるメタ情報のことですなので こちらは検索エンジン用こちらはSNSサービス用のメタ情報 どちらも画像の裏にあるサイト上には現れない情報のことですで先ほどマードプレイスの場合アイキャッチ画像がソーシャルメディアのプレビューに表示されるから 投稿には必ずつけようという話をしましたが踏み込んでいくとサイト上のアイキャッチ画像はこれにしたいんだけどSNSには こっちの画像を実はプレビューで出てほしいみたいなそういうことが出てくるんですねそれを指定するのがオープングラフタグですなので サイト上でアイキャッチ画像はこれだいたいオープングラフタグがないとアイキャッチ画像がそのままプレビューで出るんですけどあえてそれを変えたいという時には別な写真にそれをすればそれを変更することができますなので これはSNSからサイトに人を誘導する時に使うものですので興味があればこちらもまたいろんなプラグインで変更が可能ですので検索をして ぜひ使ってみてくださいとりあえず こういうものがありますよ というお話でしたデニーさん 行動化データが画像検索に表示されるんですねデニーさんもなるほどはい ありがとうございますふー ちょっと時間をおばしましたけど画像のエスイオ対策たくさんありますね個人的にこれを全部やろうと思ったらサイト作りが面白くなくなっちゃいます特に私個人ブログで時々写真を載せるんですけど自分に無理のない範囲でできるものをやるというのが文字だと思います全部厳密にやるというのは会社のホームページとか運営していれば大事なことですけど個人のブログとかの程度であればちょっと大体的に一つ付けようかなとか文字と画像の距離を近づけようとかそういったところから徐々に取り組んでいけばエスイオも上がっていくかなと思います何か質問とか最後コメントとかなかったでしょうか大丈夫そうですかねもう盛り盛りでお腹いっぱいになりましたいや本当そうですねいつもよりちょっと多かったですけどありがとうございます最後次回予告です4月1日今までは同じ内容2回やってたんですけど4月は1回だけですなんでかというと私がない外部公司の方が来てお話をしてくださいこの株式会社MGNの信用通称メガネさん日本のコミュニティでも活躍されている方なんですけどその方に来ていただいてクランシックエディターからブロックエディターに移行するノウハウという内容でこのワークショップを行っていただきます4月1日午前10時から11時今日のこれと同じ時間ですけれどもその後11時から12時までズームを延長してサプロミートアップを3年ぶりに開催しますなのでサプロミートアップの一連としてメガネさんに来ていただきさらにそれをトレーニングチームのオンラインワークショップとして公開するという初の試みなんですけどやってみようと思ってますのでこの1時間のセッションだけ来るのも全然オッケーもしその後1時間開いてれば今回のサプロミートアップ全国どこからも参加可能ということにしてますのでそちらにも参加していただいて構いませんはいぜひ皆さんお越しくださいデニーさんからアルートテキストはアクセシブリティのために使いたいので本部にもSEO効果があると知れて良かったですそうですね本部SEO的に結構重要になってきてるみたいですのでぜひ意識していきましょうではなかなかありがとうございました今日のダイヤはこれでおしまいになります横側近日中にアップしますのでその時またお伝えします今日は以上になりますありがとうございました

Tired of the everyday grind? Ever dream of a life of romantic adventure? Want to get away from it all? We offer you escape. Escape. Designed to free you from the four walls of today for a half hour of high adventure. You're standing alone in a mountain village somewhere in the puppet country of Andorra. The high crags of the Pyrenees trapping the last of the daylight. And you know that in one of the stone houses facing you, behind one of the doors that is closed against you, is a beautiful woman whom you must find before she meets her death. Listen now, as escape brings you Kathleen Hyde's story, The Dark Wall. The black quiet of the night settled over us. I could hear only the silky ripple of the river Segre nearby, and a thin whisper of wind in the high pines above us. The strained silence of the day was over. Joyce was sleeping quietly now, a few feet away. I sank into my sleeping bag and prayed that things would go better tomorrow. Something roused me. Some sound. In a glance, I saw the gray of the pre-dawn, and then I saw Joyce. Poised at the side of my sleeping bag, wild terror in her eyes, and in her upraised hand, a heavy tire iron. Joyce! Don't wake up, Alan! Don't! Joyce, for heaven's sake! Give that to me! No, no, no! Give it to me! Let go! Let go! Let go! Drop it! Let it go! No, no, I won't! Don't, Alan! Let it go! Joyce! Oh, you were supposed to wake up! No, no, you're all right, Joyce. Joyce, don't be afraid. Oh, Alan! There's nothing to be afraid of. It's so frightened. Well, what frightens you? Can't you tell me? I was going to kill you. What? I wanted to kill you. Joyce, are you afraid of me? Who is you? I love you. And I love you, darling. I know you do. Alan, please, can't we go now? Can't we get away from here? I knew now that Joyce needed care quickly. Her sickness, whatever it was, had been a growing thing. As we drove through the narrow winding roads of the Pyrenees toward the tiny state of Andorra, I tried to forget what had happened. Tried to ignore the mounting wall of silence between us. Something in that silence told me that Joyce's fears were greater than mine. Why are you stopping here? The road forks up there just ahead. I want to look at the maps. I'm not sure which way we're supposed to turn. Aren't there any towns? Are we ever going to see people and buildings again? You can't be too far from Andorra, La Vieja, but I doubt if this road runs even on the map. Then let's go back, Alan. Let's see now. If we don't know what's ahead, let's go back to La Rita, Barcelona. Anywhere but here. There's a long way back, Joyce. I don't care. This place, all tanglewood and pines, the narrow paths that twist and wander. We're not lost, darling. Then where are we? I don't like it, Alan. It's just a wild, lonely place. And it frightens me, and I beg you to take me out of here. All right, all right, darling. Don't worry. I know what's behind me. The head, it's all unknown. I'm afraid of what's ahead. No, you mustn't be afraid, Joyce. I won't let anything happen. We wound steadily higher and higher through the wooded Pyrenees. We met no one and saw no one. Andorra is a small state, only 192 square miles and all, but that morning it was an endless, stretching, climbing, no man's land, a lonely place with no name and no face. Then finally we came upon it, not a town, really, a village with one great house and a few smaller ones. Perched there on the rocky ledge, it looked like the last stop before Oblivion. It's so quiet. I wonder where the people are. I wonder if there are people. It's not a town at all. Perhaps we should have turned back when you said to. Look, look at the window. I know I saw a face in the window. There's someone here, Alan, someone. We'd better stay here, darling, even if we find someone. This isn't the place for us now. Look, you see, the door is opening. Alan, someone is here. But, Joyce, this isn't the... Lost your way? If we were told there was a town here... There is. Or is this all there is to it? We do not require more. Please, I'm tired. I need rest. Can't we stay here? Is there a hotel, any place where we can get a room? There is what your eyes tell you there is. And no more. Is there a larger town anywhere near here? You are in Andorra. Nothing is far away, nothing is easily reached. What's the matter with you people? Can't you answer questions? Please. We must stay here somehow. In just a while, I need to stop a while. She is your wife? Yes. There is no hotel. I see there isn't. This house has many rooms, but we are a large family. Please. Please understand me. I've got to stay here. I can't wind around any more narrow trails. I've got to stop and rest. Can't you understand? Can't I make either of you understand? Darling, it's all right. We'll find a room. You'll rest. Now you mustn't worry, Joyce. I must sleep. I must. No matter what happens, I must sleep. Can't you do something? Lady, you come. Woman! Almost as soon as he called, a squat little woman appeared in the doorway. They exchanged only a look and then she came and led Joyce into the house. At first I thought the man meant for me to stay outside. But as if to stop me from following, then he stepped back and I walked into the house. Joyce was stretched out on the bed when I got there. The bed was the only piece of furniture in the room. It's nice, isn't it, Alan? Well, it's a room, a bed. I wish it were more. Oh, I'm so tired. Yes, darling. Now you go to sleep. When you wake up, as soon as you feel like it, I'll take you to Andorra la Vieja. Yes, Alan. When I wake up. Sleep well, darling. She's asleep? Oh, she's very tired. The woman says she trembled. The woman says she is full of fear. I don't suppose there's a doctor anywhere around here. We have no need for doctors. My wife is ill. We have need for a doctor. You will not find one here. I know. I know. Hey! Hey, get away from that car! Go on now! Get away from it! You are the intruder, not they. They can leave the car alone. Who are they? My sons, my brothers, their sons. We are the family here. We are called Valera. We tend sheep and our own affairs. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm worried about my wife. I didn't mean to shout at them. Most of the time our mountains protect us. We do not like intruders. It is not so bad in winter. The snows fall deep into the passes, seal them and keep the intruders out. We are not intruders. We don't want to be here. We don't mean to be here. And I promise you we won't be here long. Sometimes the intruders come to hide in our mountains to be lost from the world. Always the intruders are troubled people. Full of fears and discontent. The worst of their world. They find their way to Andorra. I walked away from him. Along the crude cobble of the village path, away from the great house and the smaller ones. And everywhere, the sons, the brothers and their sons of Valera watched me with silent distrust. I walked to the rocky pinnacle that was the edge of the village and beyond as far as I could see the awesome Pyrenees reached higher and higher. Like a great wall closing out the rest of the world. I went back to the house where Joyce slept. The woman is with her. She called out and the woman went into her. I shouldn't have left her alone. I must... Wait. The woman has brought her quiet. That is enough. I wouldn't try to keep me out here if I... How is she, woman? She is quiet now. The woman would not leave her so if she were not... Joyce! Oh, Joyce, darling. They said you'd gone. No, no, no, only for a little while. Only while you slept. Don't... Don't come any closer. Well, Joyce, what is it? Please, leave me alone. I want you to leave me alone. We're going to get out of this place, darling, together. No. No, I won't go. I won't. We'll find the right road. It can't be far. And I promise you, darling, everything will be all right. We won't come here again, ever. Why don't you listen? I talk to you and you don't listen. Joyce, wait! Joyce was clinging to the woman. Valera stepped in front of them as I came back to the front room, and beside him, from every corner of the room, the rest of the Valera men began to form a wall between Joyce and me. A wall of men. Silent men with staring distrust in their eyes. What are you trying to do? You can't. You see, she's sick. I've got to get her out of here. Don't you know that? Taking her with me. And the whole lot of you can't stop me. You are listening to The Dark Wall, tonight's presentation of Escape. One advantage in having several radios about the house is that they make it possible for housewives to listen while they work. A kitchen set, another in the living room, perhaps a third in the bedroom, keep them all tuned into CBS Radio for our great roster of daytime dramatic stories. And now Escape and the second act of The Dark Wall. Aroused from asleep, there was torture and full of pain. A bright afternoon sun shone in a haze about me. And when my vision cut through it, I saw nothing my eyes had seen before. I was in my own car, pulled to one side of the road that was wider than any I'd seen for days. And not far in the distance, I could hear the approach of other cars. But none were yet in my view. I got out, stood in the roadway, where all the stiff pain of me felt good to be part of the world again. But then I remembered Joyce and the wall of fuller amen and I was lost and lonely and sick. You should not walk in the middle of the road. No, no, I shouldn't. You are hurt and accident. I'm all right. I just don't know where I am. What road is this? Oh, you're in Andorra. You know that? I know that. Then straight ahead on this road, the direction your car is pointing. No more than four kilometers lies a capital, Andorra la Vieja. Straight ahead, Andorra la Vieja. I promise, I have just come through there myself. You are sure you are right, not hurt? I'm much better now. Do you know this country well? Oh, well enough to drive through it quickly. My home is Spain. You wouldn't know a village near here, maybe a small village where everyone is called Valera? No, I would not know it. There are many such villages in Andorra if you can find them. I must find it. Perhaps in Andorra la Vieja? Perhaps my hopes were high for Andorra la Vieja. There would be answers for all my questions. There would be concern and help and interest. I told myself these things. To keep my mind from filling itself with choice. To keep the pain quiet. Some corner of my mind held the memory of all that had happened in the house of Valera. I could not be sure I wanted to remember. I do not see why you have come here, to me. I didn't know any place else to go. I need so much help, I thought surely the police could do something. There has been a crime? No, my wife is ill, very ill. She's with strange people in a strange village. I've got to find help for her and go back there. Then why do you not do this? Why do you bother me? I've told you... Well, you try to understand me. I don't know where the village is. I don't think it's far away, but I don't know where it is. It has a name, the village? I don't know that. The people there are called Valera. There's a river called Valera. No, I saw no river, no, not there. It was high, on a rocky crest of a mountain, just a few houses. You must know where it is. You were there? Yes, this morning. Then you must know where it is. No, I don't. I don't have any idea where it is. But you were there this morning, and now you are here. Look, I don't know how I got there. Can I make you understand that? I think none of this is important. Well, it's all important to me, my wife is ill. She needs care. You tell me that. Perhaps then you would tell me why you left her in a strange village you do not know, with strange people you do not know. Why? I didn't leave her. But she is there. And you are here. Oh, you won't even try to help me. Help you. Help you what? Find a town where you have been, and I have never been. All right. All right. I can't talk anymore. There is a hotel across the plaza. You will find other intruders there. Tell them a doctor. I wasn't sure I had heard him clearly, but there were no questions left in me. I stumbled out into the glaring sunlight again, steadied myself against a pillar. And when I could make out the hotel across the plaza, I walked there. Held together, I know, by the thin strand of hope that I would find the doctor, and there would be help for Joyce. Yeah. Drink it, Don. Oh. Hey, whiskey? Yes. Good whiskey. You need it. Oh. Good. It helps. You do understand, doctor, that I have not come about me. Your wife, I know. I understand that. Oh, I'm glad someone does. You think the priest can help us? You think he'll be able to find the village? Well, the pottery will direct us there, if anyone can. I mean, while there's time, tell me about your wife as much as you can, as much as you know of her illness. Oh, I've called it illness, I suppose it's that. Fear. Unreasonable fear isn't illness, isn't it? Oh, indeed it is, yes. Has she known these fears long? I don't know. We've been married less than a month. I knew her only a short time before that. No, it was all pretty sudden. She was alone, I was alone, and then we were together. Did you were happy together? Oh, yes. Very happy. Very much in love. Until this strangeness came over her. Yes, yes, that's right. May I? Oh, please do, help yourself. Thank you. How was it you described the difference in her, the difference in your relationship? Like... Like a wall, a mounting wall of silence. And in this silent time of hers, she's much different. Not at all like the girl you married. She doesn't even look like herself. Her lovely, gentle face contorts into a wild thing. Like she was an animal. Oh, it's ugly, doctor, and so real. I couldn't imagine that, could I? No, I don't believe you could. She was like that early this morning when she tried to kill you. She kept saying that she had to kill me, that she wanted to kill me. And all the while she was so frightened. So very frightened. But you know what frightened her? Do you know any reason why she should want to kill you? I thought she must be afraid of me. She'd have no reason to be, but I thought that must be it. I asked her and she said it isn't you. I love you. Oh, poor darling. She said that after she tried to kill you. Almost immediately afterward. It's a complete contradiction, I know, but that's the way it is. As if Joyce were two persons, two directly opposite persons. That may be precisely the case, you know. I don't understand. Two persons? One is entirely good, gentle, kind. The other almost entirely evil. Telefying, menacing. Fiendish at times. Two persons occupying one body. That's schizophrenia. Oh, no. No, not Joyce, doctor. No, I'd have to be sure, of course. But from what you've said, still I'd have to see her and talk with her. Or there are many steps to take. The important thing now is to see her as soon as possible. That's schizophrenia. That's hopeless, isn't it? I mean, there's no cure. Is there? It depends largely, I should say, on how long these two personalities within her have been warring one with another. The good and the evil and the moral and the immoral. If the cleavage is minor at this point, if the breach between her two selves as it were is not yet great, there is a measure of hope. But she couldn't go on this way indefinitely, being two people. Win this war? If it progresses unchecked, well, then, yes, one self will emerge triumphant. Uh, she's a poor war word here. For in such an instance, the evil almost inevitably triumphs over the good. Can we go to her now? Yes, I'm sure the party will have our directions. The priest's directions were perfect. As I had assumed, the village was not far away. But the drive was an eternity for me. The strain of the last days was beginning to tell. I was wound tight and knotted by all that had happened and torn deep by all the doctors had said. I stopped outside the great house of Valera. The doctor touched my arm. Perhaps, um, perhaps it's best that I see her alone. At first. Oh, but I've got to see her. Oh, I know, and you will, but you don't know what happened here before you left. The last you remember, she was terrified of you. I'll send for you soon, I promise. Sure, I'll love her. Will you? Oh, indeed I will. Oh, um, there's one thing I neglected to tell you. One important facet of this. If we find what we fear most, you must take this comfort to your heart. A girl you love, who loves you, has no knowledge whatsoever of her other self. Thank you, doctor. Yes, you ponder that. I shan't belong. I watched the house door close behind him, and there in the high quiet alone, I took the comfort he offered me. The choice I loved. Loved me. That was all there was, really. All in the world I needed to know. You will not go in there. The woman, the doctor, they have brought her quiet again. I am going in. I will kill any or all of you who stand in the way. Move. Move! There. Anyone else want his head bashed in? No. Good. You'll make a real mess of things, won't we? Come on. I like to crack skulls. What's the matter? Come on. Keep me from that door. Make one little move, and I'll tear your loose. Men of honor I see. Where is she? Look at her. Shrinking collards. What are you, gentlemen? You make me sick, all of you. I killed him, you know. He was a gentleman. Dear, gentle Alan. He won't be with us anymore. Easy now. Somebody will. Come on. I'll tell you, Joyce, what I told him. And you must take this comfort to your heart. Alan, the man you loved, loved you very much. He didn't know this other self ever existed. There were faces all around me. A wall of faces. Senseless, staring faces. And beyond them, a strange girl wept softly. All strangers, strangers staring at me. When I stared back at the wall. Under the direction of Norman McDonnell, Escape has brought you the Dark Wall by Kathleen Height, starring John Daener with Joyce McCluskey, featured in the cast where Ben Wright, Edgar Berrier, Nester Paiva and Fritz Feld, your announcer George Walsh. The special music for Escape is composed and conducted by Leith Stevens. Next week. You are in a farmhouse on the southern coast of England. The autumn countryside around you desolate and bleak. And you know that in the dusk outside, waiting patiently for you, silently watching for you, is an enemy from whom there may be no escape. So listen next week when Escape brings you Daphne de Morier's story, The Birds.

The switch effect has done it again. Yes folks, we will be talking about Paper Mario, the origami king today, talking about this MPD sales charts, and we'll probably see an update worldwide here soon when Nintendo does their own little financial update here and I believe 2 or 3 months whenever their next one is due. But before we get into that, we're sure to enter our giveaway for Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition. Yes, we are giving away a copy of that for the Switch or PlayStation for your choice. We will pick a winner at the end of the month to enter all you need to do is comment down below, like the video, subscribe to the channel, and hit that bell icon. Alright, beyond that, don't forget, we're on our road to 50,000 subscribers and if we can hit 50k before the month of November of 2020, I will give away a PlayStation 5, an Xbox Series X, or a Nintendo Switch that month. Okay, let's get going folks here. We need to talk about this because the MPD released today. I'm sure you guys might have seen it by now, if you haven't. What you need to know is that Paper Mario debuted at number 3. I mean, there's more than that to go over. If you want to know the full top 20 here, I guess I'll go over it. We got Ghost of Shishima at number 1, not a surprise there. We know that's the fastest selling PlayStation 4 game to date, not the best selling but fastest selling. We have Call of Duty Modern Warfare at number 2, Paper Mario at number 3, Last of Us Part 2 at number 4, Animal Crossing New Horizons at number 5, Ring Fit Adventure in at number 6, Mortal Kombat 11 at 7, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe at 8, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate at 9, Sword Art Online at number 10, we got Minecraft PlayStation 4 at number 11, Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild at 12, Rainbow Six Siege at number 13, New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe at number 14, MLB The Show at number 15, Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order at 16, Need for Speed Heat at 17, Marvel's Spider-Man at 18, Assassin's Creed Odyssey at 19, and then Rounding it out as Call of Duty Black Ops 3 at number 20. So it's important to know obviously that none of the eShop sales are coming into this, so all of the Nintendo games that you see in this list are strictly physical. If you include digital, a lot of the games would be a lot higher. Animal Crossing might be in the top 3 instead of down at number 5. Who knows where Paper Mario would be if it included the digital sales. Now, also for those that are curious, obviously this means we got a sales update for the Nintendo Switch itself, and yeah, no surprise, it was the best selling system for the month of July. It's the best selling system for the entire year in the United States, so yeah, that's all you need to really know there. No different. Nothing exciting or big here, like, oh, best selling month of Nintendo system in forever now? Not really. Tops of sales that did last year, it's topping all systems right now. Switch is just dominating this year. There isn't much to talk about there, but there is a little bit to talk about with Paper Mario, because Paper Mario, the origami king, according to MPD, has set a new launch month sales record for a Paper Mario title. Now, remember, this is physical games only, with physical launch month dollar sales, more than doubling those of Paper Mario the thousand year door. That's right. One of the most beloved games in Nintendo's back catalog. The game everyone points to them wanting Paper Mario to be this way. That was like the best selling Paper Mario game ever, was thousand year door, until the origami king landed and just destroyed those launch sales. So Paper Mario is likely well on its way worldwide, to be honest, to be the best selling Paper Mario game of all time. I don't think this is a surprise, but there is some people excited about it and some people disappointed. And I think it becomes from the two different Paper Mario camps. You have the Paper Mario camp that really wants it to go back to its more RPG-like roots with thousand year door and all that. And then you have those people that really like what Paper Mario is today, where they seem to change the combat system every game. They seem to do different things with every game and it gets away from the RPGs. It feels like there's a little bit less originality with some things, but more originality and other things. It's definitely a very different Paper Mario today versus what I play growing up as a kid. And so I feel like there's a divide, there's a love-hate relationship where there's a huge fan base that loves Paper Mario the way it is now and a huge fan base that really dislikes Paper Mario the way it is. So when you see sales like this, obviously there's going to be some people out there that aren't very happy about these sales. It is important to note though that the switch effect is in place. And to me, the switch effect is basically anything Nintendo releases is boosted in sales on Switch in comparison to any other platform they've ever released in the market. And this is because of a pattern of behavior that has happened with all of their games that have released, whether or not they're the best game in the series or not. Obviously Breath of the Wild has more than doubled the best-selling Zelda game of all time in terms of sales. Super Mario Odyssey is way the hell up there. I mean, you go back to the Wii days and you look at Galaxy, oh, Galaxy did really well. I'm like, yeah, it sold almost 10 million. Odyssey is at almost 20, like almost double the sales of Galaxy One. So it's kind of crazy when you think about the switch effect there. Two-Sell Better. Arms, you know, for fighting games of a hard time selling a million copies. Arms had no problem getting over two million. You've seen this with even Mario Tennis Aces being the best-selling Mario Tennis game of all time. You have Super Mario Party. Pretty much the list goes on and on of every game Nintendo releases. I think except for the Yoshi's Crafted World, I think was one of the exceptions that didn't do it. But I think every other IP Nintendo throws out on the platform, including Animal Crossing New Horizons, it becomes the best-selling game in that franchise ever. So there is definitely a switch effect in a place where, for some reason, I'm not sure what it is about the switch, but the consumer base that bought Switch seems to be a little different from Nintendo's traditional consumer base because they are just picking up games every time they come out from Nintendo. Whatever Nintendo throws out there, people pick it up, including Ring Fit Adventure. So whatever Nintendo decides to throw out there just sells at record levels. So I think that plays a role in this, but I also think we have to remember, if you look at the history of Paper Mario sales, it's consistently sold decently well. I'm talking like for a spin-off series that doesn't come out super often, it sells way the hell better than the Metroid franchise does. The Metroid is considered like a tentpole IP for Nintendo, but it doesn't sell well. Paper Mario is traditionally sold just as well, if not better than Metroid. So that's something to take into consideration when we talk about these sales, that Paper Mario the Origami King, as much as I've heard, I've heard way more complaints about this game on the internet than I've heard praise. Yet, I sit here in August of 2020 and I'm telling you that the consumer base for Paper Mario, the Origami King, and I feel like the consumer base for a lot of video games are not vocal on the internet. And it feels weird because we are in an era where the internet is a bigger deal than maybe it's ever been, especially during this pandemic. People have more free time and are online a lot. But I'm sitting here and I'm like, you know, when I look at all the sales of the games, we think about all the people complaining, the thousands of comments, the hundreds of thousands we read across, whether it's Twitter or Reddit or whatever, but the games are selling in the millions. Do you realize all the conversations combined for say, even Breath of the Wild might not even top how many units of Breath of the Wild is sold. So I feel like we need to put the internet reaction in its proper place. It's important and it matters. But in the end, sales are king and sales determine if Nintendo is doing the right thing with their IPs. Clearly they're doing the right thing with Paper Mario, the Origami King, not just because it has a boost from being on Switch, but because it seems to be well received in general. In fact, I'm going to look it up right now because I actually didn't plan to talk about this during it. I want to go to Metacritic. I know some people are not fans of Metacritic and that's okay. I understand that. But even on Metacritic, you're seeing a score of 79, which I don't think is that bad. I mean, if we just look at the Paper Mario series and the whole time Metacritic, you know, Color Splash was a 76. So it's widely considered better than that. You know, Sticker Star was a 75. It's widely considered better than that. It's better than Paper Jam. So really the only games that it's trailing are what? Paper Mario, the first one, Super Paper Mario on Wii and then Thousand-Year Door. That's it. Those are the only three Paper Mario games that are critically considered better than this one. With the original Paper Mario just being top tier 93 plus must play kind of game. So I think that we need to cut them some slack. Well, obviously, you know, when you look at even just the Metacritic ratings, you're like, oh, they need to go back to that, that more RPG style like they did. In the end, sales are king. And they're selling a shitload of Paper Mario. So I honestly, I know sales shouldn't be like the main determining factor, but that's how the people speak. We speak with our wallets. And Paper Mario, the origami king is clearly by fans of Nintendo or fans of Paper Mario, fans in general, well received. So kudos to Nintendo for that. Good for them. Obviously, if you guys are wondering about anything else on the NPD, because we're focusing on Paper Mario here. Ghost of Shishima is Sucker Punch's fastest selling release ever. And it's the fifth best selling debut for a game in 2020 so far. Also, there's some notes on Last of Us Part Two. Like-to-date dollar sales of Last of Us Part Two are another third highest for a Sony published game just behind Marvel's Spider-Man and then the 2018 God of War. But yeah, hardware spending declined 2% in July compared to last year. But year-to-date spending has increased by 22% to 1.8 billion on Nintendo Switch, which was obviously the best selling hardware platform. And it is the only one to not show decline year every year, which isn't surprising there. Switch is dominating. Switch has benefited from the pandemic. Switch has benefited in general from being a really, really awesome system while we wait for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X to finish their battle and actually release this holiday. Can we get a price, guys? Like, I mean, you have Digital Foundry throwing out there, but I think they're going to be $600 systems. Maybe they will be, but I don't know. We'll see what happens. Anyways, folks, let me know what you think about this all down in the comments below. Do you like Paper Mario the Origami King? Again, I feel like the general internet reaction to Paper Mario has been negative, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's warranted. So let me know what you think down in the comments below. I am Nathan Ropajans from Nintendo Prime. Be sure to enter our giveaway. Help us on our road to 50K, and I'll catch each of you in the next video.

here live from the national in Atlantic City. This is Friday. This is our second break of the day. We have 2022 tops tops tier one baseball. 12 box case number 15. Pick your team style. Got Alexander M. Padres, Andrew S. Rays, Chris S. Pirates, Daniel V. Metz, Darren V. Rangers, DoD, Cubs Marlins, Brewers, Gilbert with the Tigers, Gerard Giants, Jessica Rockies, Jimmy L. Mariners, John F. Royals, Kevin C. Guardians, Kirk has the Yankees, Cardinals, Red Sox and Dodgers, Matthew W. Bluejays, Rich F. Phillies, Brian M. Braves-Reds, Twins, Sean T. Orioles, Sho, F. Angels, Simon S. White Sox, Steven M. Debacks, Suzanne with the Ashtos, Tyler, Nationals, Utah Aids. Good luck everybody. Thank you very much for joining. We'll switch over, filter out some of this noise. Here we go. Favorite Red Sox for reliever ever overall? Oh, I saw. Yeah, that's a pretty tough answer. Jersey Card, Yankees, D. G. Lemay, Huda 399. Gage to mechanism? I'm gonna forget. Yankees on that one. Moises Alou on the Ashtos Auto Bronsig. I've never seen an Alou Ashtos card. It's a 25. And a good first box here. Bat Relic Auto going to these Twins. Paul Molitor to 99. Minnesota Twins. McDodger's Trey Turner to 399. I would probably say he's one of the most underrated players in baseball. It's a 299. Auto, Nick Fortes, Marlins. Favorite Red Sox pitchers, Pedro. Matt Olson, A's Auto to 299. It's Pedro, then a wide gap. Then for me, I'd probably go, for me personally, what I've watched, I'd go Leicester. And then probably Beckett after Leicester. And then I'd probably get to it. I'd probably get to sale. I know that the contract now doesn't look good, but when they got him, he was, dude, like 300 strikeouts, season, stuff like that. Nasty. Plus, he closed out the 2018 World Series. Jersey Dodgers playing Kershaw to 249. That's just me first, though. Jersey Carter, Tyler O'Neill to 349. Pardons. I don't watch Clemens on the Red Sox. And like, I'm at the age where Clemens in my mind is like a Yankee or like an Astro. Rookie Auto Orioles, Spencer Watkins to 299. And Brandon Crawford auto to 299. Giants. Derek Lowe's a good one too. Yeah. I don't have to change it up. Maybe Lowe over sale. Maybe Lowe over Beckett. Jersey Card, Metz, David Wright to 249. Jazz Chisholm auto to 299, Marlins, nice jazz. And now you see it Orioles, bronze, ink, auto, Eddie Murray, nine of 25. Wakefield. Wake is a good one. How could I forget Wake? He was there for 30 years, I feel like. Like it's your race, man. You got 249, Blake, Snell, Badres, Serena's favorite baseball players, G-Man Joy. Got Jake Myers, Rookie Auto to 299 Astros, which is a great answer. G-Man's awesome. And auto for the Cubs, Fergie Jenkins to 299. The top voters for these, if you have 75 point, those probably work the best. We're using 100 point currently. We didn't bring 75 points, top loaders, but they will 75 should work perfectly. The relics to be 130 point for the most part. Rookie Jersey Angels, Brandon Marsh to 249. He's like the new Charlie Blackman, just because he looks like that. He plays outfield. Rookie Auto raised Josh Lowe to 299. He is super under it. If Troy played for like a bigger market team, he was in a spotlight. People would think he's like a well above average first baseman, especially for power hitting in 299 A's, Matt Chapman. And he's good defensively too. Like he's one of the rays that I'm afraid of when he comes out of the bat. I just, I don't know. Yeah, Rich was telling me that there was a batbarrow pulled and it was Joey Gallo. It was game use. Are you sure? Did he play it for the Yankees? Cardinals Jersey to 249. Paul De Jong. And that's called KK. That's called Auto Lopez, Rookie Auto Blue Jays. Nice auto, auto. And twins Byron Buxton, tier one, salad auto to 299. Then he packed here. There we go. Jersey car, low cane to 399 Brewers. Jersey car twins Byron Buxton to 349. Is that Michael? Rangers, Rookie Auto, Yanni Hernandez to 299. And Darryl Strawberry, he signed all over the place on this one, to 149, Matt's auto. Are you a master of right now? I think that I'd do it here. Jersey, Boba Shet to 299 Blue Jays. Rich, Matt is ripping masterwork right in front of me right now. Got from El Reyes to 299. Auto Cleveland is very distracting. I love that word. What's that? Red Sox, Rookie Auto, Jared Durand to 299. I know we're watching each other, but breaking different things. Speaking of Star Wars, guys, Star Wars Finest releases today. Those breaks will be tonight. Make sure you check out the schedule on the website, guys. Top's Finest Star Wars. Jersey car and Braves are on the Junior to 149. I, for one, love Star Wars, so I just won. I'm so glad they're coming out with more Star Wars products. It's honestly overdue by tops, I feel like. I think. I just realized I say I feel like all the time. I must get annoying, guys. I'm sorry. Red Sox, Ricky Jersey, Jared Durand to 199. Orioles, nice hit here. You got Cedric Mullen's Auto to 299. Yeah, Brewer's Rookie Auto, Jake Cousins to 299. I do always say that. I have to change it up. I have to, I don't know how to correct it. Ooh, we got a nice hit coming. I didn't see who it was, but I know what the card is, like what style. Batralli Cubs, Ron Santo to 99. What's up, guys? You guys having a good day? Oh, okay. Gotta get you. Gotta get you a hit, then. Austin Meadows, Auto for the Raise to 299. Got to pull a Philly's hit now, guys. Have to. That's a nice card. Royals, Salvador Perez. I like these. A clear one. Clear one, Auto, Salvador Perez, Royals to 10. Pull the Shohei yesterday. All right, last one. I'm going to need a Philly's hit. Oh, dude, look at this one of one. Triple Patch, one of one, Astros, Michael Brantley. Three colors on the bottom and the top patch. Unfortunately, there is one of these, like, seal lines on the bottom. So we're going to send them to box and wrap her with that one. It's factory damage. Nasty Brantley, though. Congrats, Astros. Got Kent Herbeck, Auto to 299 for the Twins. And on the back, Astros again. Wow, what a box free. Jersey Auto, Jose Altuve, it is 75. Ice Altuve. That's going to do it for the break. Thanks again, everybody. Got another case coming up next.

There is no display stand And now let's go ahead and take a look at bedtime deadpool This is Kind of reminiscent of The Ferris Bueller scene in at the end of the first deadpool movie I don't think it was actually meant to be an exact representation of it It's more or less just deadpool in his costume wearing a bathrobe and His fuzzy slippers The fuzzy slippers of course are unicorns As you can see here very nice the paint Paint on this isn't too bad. There's not Any paint bleeding that I can see At all He does also have his Plush panda On his bathrobe you can see the deadpool Symbol there very nice and he is a bubble like all Marvel Funko pops so again very nice.

Welcome back to my channel and welcome to a new series that I'm going to be offering on my channel I am going to be doing a WW friendly instant pot series So each time I put out an instant pot video it will have two recipes. They may be meals They may be breakfast desserts It's going to be a variety But every video is going to have two separate instant pot recipes that are WW friendly The instant pot is an amazing tool It makes everything in one pot easy to clean no dishes no pots and pans Nothing it makes it so incredibly easy and it cooks your food in no time and the meat comes out tender juicy and delicious So if you haven't purchased an instant pot yet, this will give you good motivation to do so The price has went down quite a bit since they first came out my particular instant pot I got on sale for about $60 and I have the large eight court I am going to link the two instant pots below in my Amazon store The one that I have and the smaller one just kind of depending on your family's needs and what they want to prepare for their meals But this is a new series. You're gonna be seeing it pretty often about the same amount of time as you see the comfort food I just wanted to give you some variety in your WW meals And a lot of you have been asking me to do some instant pot recipes So tonight I'm going to be showing you two dinner recipes one that is moderate points and one that is Extremely low points and I am telling you these two meals are some of the best that I've ever made And they were done in an instant pot, which is crazy So if you want to see tonight's two dinner recipes instant pot WW friendly stay tuned So for the first WW friendly instant pot recipe, we are going to be making a Sunday pot roast Super excited about this if you have a family or a husband that is a meat eater and loves pot roast This recipe is so easy and it is all made in your handy dandy instant pot So let me show you everything that is in our Sunday pot roast So first you're going to need some salt some pepper some Worcestershire sauce beef broth a 3 pound chuck roast This is actually a 2.75 pound I am going to trim all of the visible fat as well. You're going to need some potatoes carrots an onion and onion soup mix and of course the star of the show your instant pot So let's get started on making our Sunday pot roast So you can see here that I've went ahead and I've actually cut up all of my carrots Potatoes and onions and just thrown those in to a big bowl I have trimmed the fat off of my roast and I have seasoned both sides with salt and pepper So the next thing that we're going to be doing is whisking together Some broth so what I have here is two packets of the onion soup mix to that I'm going to be adding one and a half cups of beef broth and Then I'm also going to be adding in some Worcestershire sauce And we're going to whisk this all together until it creates a nice sauce And we're going to whisk and then we're ready to start putting everything into our instant pot So this recipe is quick to prepare does have a little bit longer cook time So make sure that you plan ahead for that, but you're just going to whisk it all together You've got your meat. You've got your veggies and we're ready to get things moving So the first thing that we need to do to get moving on our pot roast is we're going to go ahead and hit this saute button We are going to let our instant pot get nice and hot once it is hot We're going to go ahead and add in some Pam cooking spray the olive oil So we'll give it just a few minutes to get hot and then we'll add in some olive oil spray Once your pot is nice and hot I'm going to go ahead and add in a little bit of olive oil spray You'll see that it does kind of bubble up because it is hot and then we're going to go ahead and add in our meat Listen to that sear you guys Listen to that. Okay, so we're going to let our meat brown on each side for about three minutes We'll flip it in about three minutes over to the other side Once it's seared on the one side for one to two minutes I left mine for about two and a half minutes. I went ahead and flipped it over to the other side We're going to allow it to sear an additional one to two minutes And then we'll be adding in all of our vegetables The great thing about an instant pot is you can do all of your cooking in one pot There's no pulling out other dishes to sear and saute before adding to the instant pot So it's a one man show and it is amazing Next we're going to go ahead and add in our potatoes carrots and onions Right over to the top of our meat. We are still on the saute function We will be turning that off at some point here, but we are still on saute That's why you hear that nice simmering in the background And then to your veggies and meat You're going to go ahead and add the mix of the onion soup mix the worcestershire sauce and the beef broth Go ahead and let that cook for about one minute or so Then you're going to go ahead and pop on your lid. See how I have it marked at seal Make sure that it is sealed and not expelling any of the pressure that it builds up So your lid is on there nice and tight And then you're going to go back here down to your settings and we're going to hit manual Okay, so that'll light up and we're going to go ahead and up our time to 70 minutes So like I said the prep for this is really fast, but it does require quite a bit of cooking time So we're going to go ahead and set this for 70 minutes And it will seal and we will let it cook and then it will will allow it to naturally release for 10 minutes And then we'll manually release it by turning our dial up to the top there And we are good to go so it'll turn on and in a flash 70 minutes will be up and I will show you the next steps Once your cook time is done, it will go ahead and naturally release This dial right here is the number of minutes and the recipe calls for its natural release for 10 minutes So when this says 10 we'll go ahead and get it opened up and I'll show you the completed meal Once your pressure cooker has 10 minutes of natural release You can go up here to the top and turn your dial to release the rest of whatever a pressure is left So it won't be very much once it's natural release for 10 minutes And then we'll open up and pull out our pot roast I just popped the lid off of the pressure cooker. It took another couple of minutes Sorry, we're steaming for it to finish releasing with the valve Down at the very bottom is my roast So i'm going to go ahead and pull out my roast I'll put it here on my plates and I'll show you the completed roast and vegetables, but this looks super good So here's the roast and potatoes and carrots and onions that I just pulled out of the instant pot There's still quite a bit left in here some more roast down at the bottom So this is what we're going to go ahead and do our dinner off of so I'll plate this up and I will show you a serving size So here is my plated up dinner So I have some of the potatoes and then the pot roast it literally falls apart You can't even pick it up. So it came out absolutely delicious out of the instant pot The recipe of a three pound roast makes 10 servings for a total of seven smart points The recipe itself said Eight servings seven smart p points, but by my calculations It's actually 10 servings for seven smart points apiece. So this is my seven smart point dinner of pot roast potatoes carrots and onions So for tonight's instant pot dinner, I'm going to be making goulash This is a family friendly a family loved recipe You guys are going to be amazed by the smart points in this dish So let me show you everything that is in the goulash And then I will show you how to put it all together And again, it is going to be in our tried and true instant pot all in one pot easy peasy So you're going to need some pasta of your choice. I'm going to go ahead and use the fiber gourmet light rotini I do have this linked down in my description box in my amazon store So make sure that you check out the light rotini the fiber gourmet pastas This is what they will look like in the ad They are only three smart points per two ounce serving Which is half of what traditional pasta is and I promise you you won't be able to tell the difference So i'm going to be using the rotini For spices, we're going to need some salt Some minced onion some Italian seasoning Black pepper and the recipe does call for bay leaves. I do not have any so i'm going to be omitting those You're going to need two bell peppers whatever color you choose Some minced garlic Ground turkey i'm going to go ahead and do the 99% lean so it is zero smart points The recipe calls for either a 14 ounce canned tomato sauce or a marinara So i'm going to be using the skinny-ish dish crock pot marinara zero smart points I will link this recipe down in the description box And I do have several videos where I show you how to make the marinara You're also going to need some water And lastly you're going to need some zucchini And of course your instant pot. So let's get started on tonight's dinner of goulash So the first thing that you need to do is chop up your vegetables So you can see here that i've got my peppers ready my zucchinis I'm going to get these all chopped up and set aside And then the next step is is to throw our turkey in On the saute setting and I will show you exactly step by step once I chop up my vegetables Once you have your veggies all chopped up We are ready to get everything going into our instant pot So the first thing we're going to do is spray our pot with just a little bit of non-stick cooking spray That just helps keep it all from sticking especially during the saute part of the process And then in my pan i'm going to be adding my one pound of 99% lean ground turkey We're going to go down to our dial here and we're going to go ahead and turn on saute Sorry about it being blurry. It wants to do it for about 30 minutes So we're going to say okay that sounds good And it's going to heat up and then we will saute our ground turkey Once your turkey is nice and brown we need to add in our spices I did try to film me adding in the spices, but it's so steamy you couldn't see anything So here is basically what I added I added some ground black pepper just to my liking I added about a tablespoon and a half of minced onion some Italian seasoning Some salt and a good size scoop of garlic. Now we're going to go ahead and add in our vegetables Once you've added your spices go ahead and pop in your Veggies I've got a few more over here on a tray that didn't quite fit into my bowl But go ahead and add in all your vegetables. Give that a nice stir. We're still on the saute function So it's still on that cooking down function. Give those a quick stir Then we're going to go ahead and add in our pasta and our sauce once you've added all your vegetables The next step is we're going to go ahead and add in our pasta And you're going to add that just right to the top of your veggies So that is eight ounces of the fiber gourmet pasta We are also going to be adding about 14 ounces of water We want to make sure that we're adding about the same amount of water as we are adding tomato sauce That way the pasta gets nice and cooked down And then lastly we're going to add in our bowl of the skinny-ish dish crock-pot marinara And that substitutes for the tomato sauce in the recipe Go ahead and give this a nice big stir We're going to then pull it off of the saute function and get it on to cooking mode And look at that. It looks delicious. I've added all of my sauce Veggies water spices now. We're ready to pop our lid on And we're going to go down here and we're going to go ahead and take it off of the saute function Until it says off and then we are going to go ahead and go with the manual Time so that we can adjust the time ourselves. So you want to hit the manual button And you want to knock that down to 10 minutes because that's the number of minutes that we want to go ahead and let our meal Cook and then we are going to quick release yesterday or in our last instant pot meal We did a natural release you can do that or you can do a quick release So i'm going to show you how to do a quick release And then my friends we are good to go so in 10 minutes our goulash will be done Once your instant pot beeps and tells you that it is done cooking This is how you would set the natural release, but this particular recipe wants us to go ahead and invent it ourselves So you can see here that it's on seal. So we're just going to simply move this switch Over to vent and you can hear the steam coming out And it will release all of the pressure and then your little dial will come up letting you know So you can safely remove the lid and then i'll show you the completed goulash I just popped the lid off of the instant pot after it released for about five minutes This looks so delicious Perfectly done posse. It's not too mushy. I'm going to go ahead and plate up a serving. This batch makes six servings I'm going to show you a serving size We're going to top it with a little bit of cheese and i'm going to give you the smart points So here is a serving of the instant pot goulash. You can have a heaping cup Yes heaping cup for only two smart points Isn't that crazy because of the fiber gourmet pasta and the zero 99 zero point turkey it makes it super super low So two smart points for a heaping cup I added one ounce of the trader joe's light shredded mozzarella So my dinner is three smart points total. That's it You could pair this with a vegetable, but remember you do have zucchini and bell peppers in the recipe But this looks really delicious and that is a lot of food for only three smart points Thank you for joining me on the new series for w w friendly instant pot recipes I hope that you enjoyed the two recipes that I shared with you Again, I am going to link the six quart and eight quart instant pot down in the description box below And this is a new series on my channel that you will be seeing on a regular basis So if you don't have an instant pot, it's time to get one and if you do this should give you some additional recipes So if you're new to my channel, I'd like to welcome you make sure that you subscribe hit the little bell icon Kind of right about there that i'll notify you every time that I upload a new video Give this one a thumbs up comment below. Let me know. Do you have an instant pot? If you do if you don't do you want to get one and what do you think of the new series of w w friendly instant pot recipes?

THE WISHING BRIDGE by John Greenleaf Whittier read for LibriVox.org by Bruce Gachuk Among the legends Sungor said along our rocky shore, the Wishing Bridge of Marblehead may well be sung once more. And a hundred years ago, so ran the old-time story, all good wishes set above its span would soon or late befall, if pure and earnest never failed the prayers of man or maid, for him who on the deep sea sailed, for her at home who stayed. Once thither came two girls from school and wished in childish glee, and one would be a queen and rule and one the world would see. Time passed with change of hopes and fears, and in the self-same place, two women, gray with middle-years, stood wondering face to face. With vacant memories as they met, they queried what had been. A poor man's wife, am I, and yet, said one, I am a queen. My realm a little homestead is, where locking crown and throne, I rule by loving services and patient toil alone. The other said, the great world lies beyond me as it lay, or loves and duties boundaries my feet may never stray. I see but common sights of home, its common sounds I hear. My widowed mother's sick bedroom sufficeseth for my sphere. I read to her some pleasant page of travel far and wide, and in a dreamy pilgrimage we wonder side by side. And when at last she falls asleep, my book becomes to me a magic glass, my watch I keep, but all the world I see. A farm-wife queen, your place, you fill, while fancy's privilege, is mine to walk the earth at will, thanks to the Wishing Bridge. Nay, leave the legend for the truth, the other cried, and say, God gives the wishes of our youth, but in his own best way. End of poem. This recording is in the public domain.

Hey guys welcome back to come again TV the only place on YouTube. We're all geek culture collides. I'm Shannon today We're taking a look at the NECA real toys Halloween ultimate Michael Myers and As you can see it includes a light-up flickering pumpkin This is for ages 17 and up and there is a warning that there is a choking hazard So this is from the newest Halloween movie Was it 2018 this film came out? There's the back of the box as you can see all the display pieces he comes with he does not come with the Room and all that but he does come with a knife a hammer a jack-o-lantern a fireplace poker a head an extra mask spare hands and a Tombstone and as you can see there's a top side other side bottom open it up You get Michael Myers on one side with a little display area and a Backdrop window box very nice So this is the side and We're gonna take a look at Michael first before we do that. Let's go and take a look at all his accessories first and foremost He comes with a headstone our beloved daughter Judith Myers born November 10th 1947 died October 31st 1963 As you can see there's some decorative designs on the top of the headstone It is a very thin headstone There's the back They did a good job scuffing it up trying to make it look stone And the letters the lettering is actually engraved Into it They did not just print them on there they did engrave it To give it a little bit of depth and make it look that much nicer then we have a A Jackal a light up flickering jackal and as you can see the eyes or hearts The nose is an upside-down heart and the mouth is a typical jack-o-lantern mouth and to light this guy up you simply Push on the stem of the jack-o-lantern And as you can see it does flicker Flickers pretty nicely turn it off And to change up the battery you just unscrew it there it did come with a little tab there to keep it from running the battery down You just pull that out once you get it And then you can turn it on let it flicker Turn it off We'll set it right here Let it flicker for a while In fact, we'll move it back a little bit so that it doesn't just flicker in the nose See if we there we go kind of We'll turn it off All you can really see is the light for the nose right now You almost have to be looking it down on it in order to see the light from other angles But we've also got a fireplace poker It is made out of a very soft brittle plastic. Don't try bending it. It will more than likely snap the paint on this They scuffed it up quite a bit to make it look like an iron fireplace poker very nice Set that there He also comes with a hammer and it's been a little while since I watched the movie so I Do remember he bashed someone's head in with it, but That's all I remember from the scene and it The paint makes the handle look wooden But again, this is a very Brittle plastic don't try bending it or anything because it will snap so he also comes with a steak knife Which looks very nice they even went the extra mile and put the rivets in the handle and Brought the metal from the blade all the way down for the handle to attach to very nice and then we have a Severed head which in the movie Had a candle inside. I believe to look like a jack-o-lantern and as you can see can see all the way through it But there is no light for it. It would have been cool if they had a light inside there But it is what it is. Let's look at the detail I'm not gonna spend too much time on this because I Don't want this video to get demonetized So we'll we'll go ahead and put set that over here my backdrop keeps moving on me. I keep pulling on it Then we have an extra mask From Michael Myers as you can see you can see the eyes in this one I actually like the other mask a lot better. It's got the blacked out eye holes This one you can actually make out the eyes. He looks kind of cross-eyed in this one And you can see that they did actually do almost a blank face underneath to put This mask around so that you could see the eyes inside. They are two separate sculpts But I'm almost positive the face underneath is blank other than the eyes And it does have the stab wound in the mask there very nice attention to detail The mask looks incredibly worn As you recall in the first movie Laurie Strode did stab him with a knitting needle Right in the neck Set that to the side. He also came with four extra hands two hands for Well, yeah two hands for each side No Three right hands and One or no one right hand three left hands and one of them is the one That Laurie Strode shot his ring and pinky finger off of peace man peace Now put those to the side You guys have seen the videos. I'm sure other reviewers going over this guy. You don't need to see me putting the hands Swapping out the hands and seeing how they look. I'm sure you've seen it all before they just They're on pegs. They are incredibly difficult to Put back on After you take them off. That's why I'm not gonna do it. But here we have Mikey Myers Michael Myers from the latest Halloween film as You can see his coveralls are a darker shade Very dirty looking very shadowy collar sticking up which is accurate The eyes You can make out eyes in there But they are blacked out There's not as much detail as the other one As you can see which I guess they are pretty much the same Head sculpt they just dabbed some black paint in there. Let's go ahead and take his head off As we see This one looks a lot better than this one. Now. Let's go over articulation on this guy So articulation His head like you saw is on a peg so it can go all the way around slight quite a bit up down a little bit His arms all the way around and They're on a hinge. They can go up to about there. No, let me lower this back down a minute Okay, his elbows. He does have a double Elbow joint, but I'm not gonna risk Doing both because that one does feel pretty brittle hands once again are on a peg All the way around No Waste articulate. Well, there's a slight waist articulation, but not a lot the Body is Oh, I guess the coveralls are a separate piece I did not realize that the first time around as you can see I'm pushing that in It's actually a Separate body that they placed This onto so there is a waste swivel underneath. I Did not realize that the legs Go out to there Go back that far and as you can see since this is rubber the The butt does move right along with it They can bend that far There is an ankle tilt swivel a rocker and You can turn them all the way around you can give them a broken foot or a broken ankle If you wanted to and now let's see how his accessories Fit inside his hands if I can get him standing up. There we go. So first we'll take the middle poker if it's better in his Left hand than it does his right hand and see it doesn't fit that well Right side up either He doesn't well, I guess he does that way and then the hammer I've come to fix your door Fits pretty snugly pretty securely in his hand, but the knife the knife Fits good that right side up It's like that and that's that's a good display look for him right there looks pretty nice Let's see how it fits upside down and it does fit pretty nicely upside down as well The detail on this figure is overall is very nice Very crisp paint application very great very nice sculpting Everything is just really nice and I loved how They'd put the Main the body part of the coveralls on over an actual sculpted Figure piece upper torso part portion That way when you move the legs the it actually moves along with them And you still get a little bit Of a waist swivel the only problem with got this guy is I wish they would have gave him a display stand Because he is very difficult to Stand up there we go there we have it stand upright and if you want I Don't know why you would but I kind of I've kind of a Like displaying him this way Putting the hammer inside the head and sticking him in his hand But it's whatever so anyway there you have it guys This has been The NECA real toys Halloween ultimate Michael Myers I Hope you guys have enjoyed this video if you have give us a like Subscribe and share with your friends I've been Shannon this been come again TV the only place on YouTube.

with a different method. So remember your research process. Start with your research plan, document your research goals and questions, determine your participant criteria and recruit, all of that's the same. The only thing that's slightly different is writing task-based questions this time. So again, remembering that they're interacting with your thing that you're trying to evaluate, conduct your feedback sessions, synthesize, iterate, write the research process. One new thing is the think a lot method. So in interviews, it's kind of naturally you're asking them questions, they're responding. This time you're really interested in their behavior, their thought process, expectations. So that has to come with having them actually talk out loud. So what are they looking at, trying to do what they think about all of it. And again, helps us understand thought process behavior. And it's uncomfortable and unnatural, right? To like be thinking and talking the whole time. So it's important to kind of help participants ease into it. And I think I do have, I'm not gonna read it, but it's in the slides and you'll have it. But this is kind of a blurb that I use that lots of people use.

Hey there everybody, it's OBS session one really excited to be here with Meredith So this is our first OBS session so we're gonna have a few of these Going on, but we really have to kind of right away dig into what this tool is why we're talking about it Meredith, do you want to maybe kind of talk a little bit about what the tool is in general and then I can kind of go into some like Specific examples of seeing it used. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I will preface I am a complete newbie with OBS. So I'm excited to be in the first session And OBS is a open source recording and streaming software that lets you Configure your screen to show yourself Your your screen input and other camera anything like that and it's more of like a behind-the-scenes producing application And it's really cool to see so I'm excited to I've seen it in like the examples kind of we're gonna talk about And that's more kind of like my experience with seeing it So kind of getting in the behind the scenes is gonna be really cool and to see like how it all actually works Yeah, I've been I've been kind of fascinated with OBS for a little while because I've been aware of it for a long time using it for like maybe Four or five years for mostly hobbyist things and then I would say in the last year or two Some stuff in my last job and and a lot of stuff at reclaim using it a lot and getting more I'm not I'm not like a super advanced user of OBS But I am pretty comfortable with a lot of the basic things that we're gonna do in this course in terms of like Showing folks how they can make a recording where they share their screen and maybe their webcam in the corner Customizing how that looks Setting it up to stream to different places things like that. It's also just really interesting to see how like So like a big a big hobby of mine is also like video games and gaming And it's really interesting to see how like this tool kind of was Born out of that basically like there were there were You can track the rise of OBS with the rise of like twitch streaming pretty Pretty close together basically when these services came online And and then like later YouTube added live streaming, you know where folks can do this on the service end for free There was a need for tools to do this on your computer and Most of the tools at the time were expensive and really complicated in many cases, too and so OBS was kind of an answer to that and It has grown from the the free option the open source option to kind of the main Player in the space. There are definitely other tools that exist to do things like this. There are Paid options are and and I don't pretend to know anything about like broadcast television. Like I'm sure they're using way different stuff, right? Absolutely, but it is crazy to see like if you're watching a Like a YouTube or twitch live stream or you're watching recording It was odds are good that they're using OBS to capture or record it in some way And it's really kind of cool. Um, so Looking at the the OBS website here They're I don't love this screenshot to be honest with you because I have once the screenshots they have it once It does show the application, but it also is a little bit Maybe not real easy to wrap your mind around But this is kind of an example of the types of things you can do with OBS you can have a Scene and the scene is just what the viewer is seeing on screen basically And you can combine multiple elements into it just like you're saying right at you can have you know Your your screen you could have other things captured and and you can also do audio stuff in OBS as well The Some examples if just going to like my peer tube the streams I do for reclaim where it's just me Usually I'm doing an OBS And so this is just a real simple, you know example of like hey It's capturing my screen. I'm in the corner It may be a little hard to pick up on this video just because it's gonna be a little small but I like to do dumb things like round the corners on my My screen capture and add a little drop shadow just to make it look kind of nice and professional No, I can you can definitely see the rounded corners within the video like I like now on the white screen That's really cool. Yeah, and it's it's a small thing But like I think it adds a lot of professionality And so we're not gonna get into all of that of this flex course, although I can Direct folks to the video I looked at on how to make like drop shadows and stuff like that kind of fancier things But but you will have this the skill set to do all that stuff basically throughout the course The other thing with OBS is you can have multiple scenes So you can switch you can set these things up ahead of time to look however you want and switch between them on the fly while you're recording or streaming so like here I've got a gift from Jurassic Park and some text and That's what's showing and then when I was ready to you know start the stream proper I switched to my like My what I call my display scene which is showing my my display right display capture You can also have scenes that show just your webcam, right? So that's that's that here and being able to flip between them on the fly. That's what OBS is kind of about So we're gonna be able to do all of that by the end of this course An example of where you can go one one thing I really love is there's this charity speed-running video game speed-running thing that goes a week long in January and in the summer They do it twice a year and they it's a charity. They raise money for either the prevent cancer foundation or Doctors without borders in the summer and they do literally a full five-day marathon and they bring people in Virtually and physically they're playing games on stream. They're showing donations and things on stream and they produce all of that just with OBS So I mean I'm sure there's other back-end tools, but the video is produced with OBS This is possible in the tool. I do not know how to do this to be clear But I love that this is possible inside of this OBS tool That is amazing to me. In fact, if anyone's interested They actually have a like they're because it's all volunteer based They actually have their like training video on how to run their setup on their YouTube So you can just watch it if you're interested. I find that fascinating. I think most people maybe won't But whatever I think it's cool that it's possible So Um, so that's just some examples where we're gonna get where you could go if you really wanted to And and what you can do with it So to kind of kick things off here the first thing we're gonna need to do is Set up OBS itself So I'm gonna kind of we're gonna kind of flip back and forth here Meredith has some slides I'm gonna do some demoing and Yeah, if you're watching feel free to You know if you're watching live and taking notes, that's cool if you want to pause the video while you're installing things I would definitely encourage that Yeah, absolutely, so we're gonna start out with a downloaded copy of OBS and With all of the system preferences to give the correct permissions like screen recording your video camera or any camera inputs and microphone permissions to make sure that the computer will be able to recognize all of that good stuff and Today we'll be going through getting started and setting up in particular The auto configuration wizard and then additional inputs as well, so what we're picking up the setup from this auto configuration wizard page And then we can start adding our own inputs and all that good stuff Yeah, and so basically you're just gonna go to the website listed here OBS project comms Slash download you'll download it you'll install it It's it's pretty easy to install the first time you launched like Meredith said It's going to prompt you on I think on Mac OS only to grant Permissions to do screen recording microphone stuff like that But it does a pretty good job of walking you through and saying you've done this you've done this done this Then on the first launch, it's gonna pop up this auto configuration wizard this thing is A little annoying to me because it presents itself as important and it it kind of isn't actually like it doesn't do as much As you might think It says it'll do things like optimize for your internet connection But we're actually not really gonna worry too much about that the default settings built in the OBS are pretty Good for most use cases. So what I would recommend here is to just click optimize just for recording I will not be streaming even though we will be streaming And and you can just hit next and accept the defaults. It's gonna default to doing a 1080p video, which is gonna be Pretty good like quality wise for most folks Sometimes I do higher resolution stuff because I have a larger monitor and higher resolution monitor But usually 1080p is going to be what you're gonna want to be recording and most computers are not gonna have too hard a time Doing that and most internet connections as long as you have like faster than Then if as long as you have a decent internet connection to be okay for streaming just to be clear That this you know this tool, I guess I mean we've talked about it, but maybe Maybe to be clear. This is a tool that runs cold fully on your computer, right? So if you do have a very old computer You may have trouble with some of this, but I will say I've used OBS on six year old machines for basic stuff and not had too much trouble but If you do have trouble in the discord post screenshots ask questions, I'm Pretty comfortable helping folks troubleshoot that stuff and there are actually tools built in the OBS that can tell you Like what your computer is having trouble with if or if your computer is having trouble like CPU wise or network wise It actually lets you it'll actually tell you what what is the problem, which is nice And then finally if you are in a spot where your internet connection is not very good You don't have to stream to use OBS like a recording is Just as valid a use case if not more so in a lot for a lot of folks so Everything we're going to be doing. We're going to do Streams and recording just to demo what that looks like But if you don't want to do streaming with it, you do not have to you can just record locally your computer so Switching over to The the next slide here The first thing we're going to do is compositing is is kind of what the term is for it And so that's really going to be just setting up multiple things on screen for our video. So We're going to set up a single scene for right now where we add our microphone and our video Just for right now just our camera and and Then we will Do more with it from there basically so I'm going to switch over to my my screen here and I'm actually I had never heard of the word compositing until we started preparing for this session So this is like it's like a new new world for me to see like how that that term comes to life with the With the inputs and setting up your scene on that side. So that's pretty cool. Yeah You know what? I'm going to need to do here and I may have to stop my screen But I'm actually going to change the resolution of my monitor so that you all can see this a little bit larger It's it's going to be a little small unless I do this. So We may have to I may have to reshare my screen here, but we'll see maybe not There we go. It's like that just works. Okay, cool Sweet. Yeah, so I just blew up everything looks huge on my screen, but that's it's gonna make for a better video So, yeah, so I've got OBS open. I've already of course installed it I've got the permissions granted and it will like I said, it'll walk you through that And I've already gone through that auto config wizard thing that I just mentioned in the previous slide This is the main interface. So There's a bunch of things going on here this black square up on top is a preview of what our video is going to look like we've got scenes which Again a scene is the visual layout that we've made for our video and we can have multiple scenes This lets us choose between those Sources this is the stuff that goes into a scene. We're going to deal with that in a second Audio mixer lets us see our audio setup. You can see I already have My microphone is already being picked up, but I'll show you how to set that up in a second In scene transitions lets you pick how when you move between scenes how it's going to is it gonna fade between them? Nicely, is it going to be hard cut? There are also other types of transitions you can do I believe I've never done anything but fade and cut personally But everything other than that is a little bit cheesy a lot of the time So I haven't messed with it too much But yeah, you could add in like the cool like powerpoint transitions where it like bounces the image throughout the screen Yeah, and and you can do like wipe like left to right or right to left wipes and stuff if you want You know like like original trilogy Star Wars, you know And you can there there are also really advanced transitions You can do that personally I haven't dealt with but I know are possible So you can do things like tell OBS to Display an image or animation over the top of your two scenes while you're transitioning That's how you see a lot of these really advanced transitions work as they will make us like a one second video that basically plays That is also possible in OBS. I have never done with that. That's a little bit more than I'm willing to deal with But it's possible and I like I like pointing out that these things are possible because I don't know I just I find it fascinating that the OBS is not a super simple tool, right? That's why we're doing a course on it But it is relatively simple like you can wrap your head around it But I love when a tool like this can go from almost anyone can pretty much anyone can learn this to Professionals could use this. That's awesome. Like yeah, absolutely Okay, so the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna set up our audio so we're gonna have to go right to settings and then audio on the left side here and There's a there's like sample rate and we're not really worried about that What we do want is in global audio devices your mic or auxiliary audio is gonna be set to probably default You can leave it on default. That's gonna use your system default microphone And that's okay, but if you've ever had trouble with Video calls and like audio devices, you know that sometimes things can change those for you I personally like to manually set it to something So if you're you can set it manually to like your laptops microphone or if you've got like a headset You could select that I personally don't really recommend Bluetooth for Doing recording or streaming because you'll have like occasional connection issues and things can get like garbled and bad sounding basically Voice calling tools like zoom and jitsi and Google meet those do a little better job at dealing with Bluetooth because they know People are gonna use them things like OBS are kind of not designed with that in mind They're thinking you've got a wired or built-in mic. So If you have no other mic use the one built in your laptop, that'll be totally fine for this I have a whole audio like I have a microphone and a whole audio setup You don't need that to do this. I'm gonna use it because it's what I have but But you don't need a super fancy setup to do it So what I'm gonna do is select my microphone I've got as you can see like a just stupid amount of microphones my my main one though is called mix B Which is weird, but but you you also could select you like on my case I'm on a Mac your MacBook Pro microphone That would be what I would suggest people pick if they don't have anything else So pick that we're not gonna do anything else, but just to note here. You can have multiple audio devices Multiple USB microphones all that kind of stuff. You can set up in OBS We're not really gonna do that in this tutorial, but or in this course I should say but but it is possible So what scenarios would you use for multiple microphones? Like if you were doing like a podcast setup or something like that. It's a little tricky. So Yes, yeah, the answer is yes, but there's also some less than ideal things about that because Typically with a podcast podcasts are not always but often edited right where you at least want the ability to edit it And in those cases you normally want to be recording Somewhere where all the files can be split by person You can have a file that says Taylor and a file that says Meredith and then I can go in and like throw them into Logic which is like an audio editing application or a garage band or audacity However, if you're gonna do like a live video podcast and you're like, well, nope We're not gonna get the chance to edit it. Then yeah, you could totally do something like this The the world of audio is complicated though And so there are also a lot of tools that will let you like combine audio sources and feed them multiple places We have an advanced Session in this course where we're gonna kind of chat about like Tools that are related to OBS, but aren't that we like to use Or that I like to use I can't remember if that one is what yeah, that's Jim and I so Jim does some of this stuff too So personally I never run more than audio one audio device into OBS, but There are reasons to The other major reason to might be like if you were doing something like capturing video from like you're doing game streaming We're not gonna really cover a game streaming in this course, but Those folks use capture cards and you would want your game sound in the recording too So that would be another reason you do this So yeah, in my case like I use a Like a camera like not a webcam. I use like a real Camera from as my webcam and in my case All right, I am having issues with my mouse because of my resolution here In my case, I could use my camera audio as well. So that's listed here as shadow cast Of my capture device, but so there are reasons and you could have like backup audio Mm-hmm. There's there's a lot of crazy advanced things But most of time if it's just you on the recording, you really only need the one device So so I'm gonna hit okay here These global audio devices are what they say in that they apply to every scene so there are concepts of Audio devices that only apply to one scene Usually you're not they're less common, but I just want to point this out the reason we're setting this up in settings This will apply to every scene. You don't have to manually do this when we make more later The things that wouldn't be we're like you can have a video play and it could have sound That would only apply to a scene that that video is on so But now you can see in our audio mixer that this shows up right here. It says Mike ox You can actually rename you can right-click on it and rename it so I could I could put like my Microphone or if you were doing multiple people like you just mentioned you could say hey, this is Taylor And label them like that There are also All kinds of effects and things we can do with audio. We're not going to do that today, but there are There's a lot of capability here in audio Okay, so the other thing we're gonna do is we're gonna add our camera to a scene So in the sources panel, we have this just one scene right now. It's called scene I'm actually gonna rename this right off the bat So again, I can just right-click on it go to rename and let's just call this camera And then in our sources we there's a bunch of different things we can add to scenes Like I already mentioned you can have individual audio things You can just put a color on the screen You can put images you can do slideshow built-in that will like flip between images You can play video you can You can actually embed scenes into other scenes. That is a super advanced thing I don't know what siphon is. I don't know. Do you even get the siphon client as an option? Is that It does show up on mine. Yeah, okay. I'm not really sure what that is. I have to look that up You can put text on screen VLC video sources Just a different way to play video basically And then video capture device is what we're gonna use that's for cameras and stuff So if I hit video capture device It's gonna say hey you want to create a new one. We can give it a name. I'm gonna call this I'm gonna give this a name other than video capture device one thing It's a little annoying about OBS is every single element of every single source and scene have to have a unique name So I can't just call this camera because I have a scene called camera. So I'm gonna call it You know webcam, I guess And then we'll want to make source visible will be checked. We will want that So you can hit okay And from here we can select what the device is so again You'll should get a list if you click on device of all of the cameras available to you and I have a few But FaceTime HD camera if I do that that's gonna be my laptop's webcam So my laptop's over there as you can see Shadowcast is my main camera. So I'm gonna select that and Then normally I don't really have to mess with the presets, but there you can There are some cameras that will require you to do that But usually you can just leave it alone But if you do have a camera that looks like squished or weird You can try some of these other resolutions and see if that fixes it for you And then we just hit okay So it's now on our scene and if I if I just Pull this Down a little bit or I should say if I click on this you can see that this is my camera I can actually click on it and move it around It has nice little guides like if you've used Photoshop or a tool like Photoshop You kind of like that where you can see how it's positioned on screen. We can resize it by Dragging the corner of it. I wouldn't one of the things I like about OBS is it doesn't let you Incorrectly resize things by like dragging it too wide. I just like that because like who wants that? And then you can also do things like this you can also right click on a source and Go to transform and I use this all the time There's a bunch of things like rotate it and stuff honestly. I'm never really using that But you can do right click transform fit to screen. I Use that all the time if I'm resizing things Or or do things like hey center it stuff like that I just like to point out that that transform menu when you right click on a source is super handy Okay, so so I do have a question before we move on to other stuff that the top portion here Where we just put our camera in is that what you're recording? That's the view your your Final recording will look like is that is that yes. Yes. This is what the audience will see there is Occasions where that's not a hundred percent true And I'm gonna I'm gonna just mention it right off the bat There is a thing called studio mode that if you clicked on that over here then that you have the ability to the right side or The one that says program camera That is what the audience sees and preview is where you can make changes and then you can push them to live So this is more of an advanced thing. I don't I don't really personally use this But what this lets you do the studio mode and it is good to know about is you can make changes So so like imagine if I was recording this and I noticed that I had Let's say there are two cameras and I wanted to change the alignment like I had something a little bit misaligned It looks strange if I'm recording actively like people are watching it and I'm moving this people are gonna see it moving Right like and that's a little bit distracting So studio mode lets you make changes And then hit this transition button and push them to the live view So it's good to know about we're not really gonna use it a lot in this course because I actually think studio mode Kind of complicates things. I think that's something that's better for someone who's Super comfy with with OBS, but it's good to know about but yeah This is a preview of what you're recording will be now. We're not recording yet. So, you know There's nothing happening But if I was recording this is what it would look like and this audio down here is what people would be hearing be putting into the video So let's kind of go back to our slides for a second. So we've already done Our microphone done our video. We set up our scene The next step is recording So there's There there are some settings that we can mess with I'm gonna show them But mostly we're going to just be hitting the start recording button So I'm actually gonna we're gonna start right with that. So this is our scene if I hit start recording You'll be recording That's kind of it. There's sort of no fuss. You'll notice at the bottom right that there's a little list of Hey, are you live? That's for streaming and then recording is for recording. So we've been recording for 15 seconds now You'll notice a CPU counter over here and 60 FPS. So this just is saying hey your CPU is only at 5% so, you know Not being used too much and 60 FPS is the Frames per second of the recording if you're struggling if your computer was struggling to keep up with whatever you're doing You may see that dip below 60 FPS The there's two sort of formats formats isn't really the right word But typically for video stuff, we're doing 30 or 60 FPS Those are the two most common things to be recording at I'm using 30 FPS right now And my CPU is fine, but I believe that that kid that can be changed Before you start recording if you want to if you want to have a higher frame rate than then just the 38 default Yeah, and and we're gonna get right into that right now. So let's hit stop recording actually now that we've done that And so now we're gonna dig into where these settings actually are if you do want to make changes to them So if I go to settings and then Out to output Our output mode is simple. I would recommend keeping it there There's advanced mode that lets you tweak like all kinds of real in-depth video stuff that I Personally don't really know much about so I'm not gonna make recommendations on and in my experience These settings Change frequently so there are all kinds of new things coming being built in the OBS all the time That allow things to work more efficiently be easier for your computer to use and keeping that on simple will kind of keep you on the Recommended things from the developer, which I think is gonna be a smart move for most people So bit rate, this is automatically set to two fifth to twenty five hundred kilobits per second We're just gonna leave that there. That's fine audio bit rate We'll leave that there to encoder all of that stuff. We're gonna leave as normal One thing I wanted to mention here though is this is the path where recordings are gonna go to so we made a recording But you might be wondering where did where did it go? And it's gonna go to users Taylor movies in my case, but you can change this I Usually just leave it there, but it's good to know that if you forget you can come back here and find where those recordings are And then you can also change what the What the formats for everything gets saved out as So MKV is the default and it's a little bit you may not have heard of that, but it is a relatively popular format MP4 is probably one that most people have heard of the Disadvantage with this with MP4 is if for some reason you're recording in your computer crashes your recording is no good Like it's all lost So I don't actually recommend recording in that the default is MKV. That's Where we're gonna leave it and the cool thing about OBS is it does warn you of this there MKV is still accepted by most things and OBS actually has a built-in tool to Convert from MKV to up to MP4. So we'll show that in a second So if that's a problem like your video editing tool or something doesn't support MKV real easy fix Yeah, you can use another tool like handbrake or something like that to convert if needed Yeah, you can use handbrake and the the advantage of what I'm gonna show in a little bit is it's It's a it's a really weird and esoteric kind of video thing but MKV is sort of a container for for all types of video and MP4 is a container that only supports one type of video Basically, OBS has a way to convert really quickly between the two So you if you've ever converted something in handbrake it takes like, you know, say you have an hour-long video It may take 20 minutes to convert it or 30 minutes. This will take like seconds for an hour-long video It's doing less work basically so Yeah, we'll show that in a second, but certainly you can use other tools if there's other specific needs you have All right, we've already been in audio video, so this is where we can go and mess with the frame rate and resolution so The this these are important. So there's a base canvas resolution and an output resolution Basically There are what I what I typically recommend to folks is to keep these either the same and Keep them at 1080p Or if there are advanced things that you're trying to do you could set the base resolution to whatever your monitor Resolution is this is what I tend to do And basically what this lets me do is it can get it can let my Canvas and this preview over here is the canvas Match my monitor and then it lets me change via this output the quality or resolution I'm gonna go to this is more of an advanced thing I think for almost anybody getting started just set these both to 1080p and don't think about it again If you are doing something like streaming to twitch and twitch only supports I think 720p for certain accounts Then you could set both of these to 720p The reason why you would ever really want to mess with that advanced thing I was talking about is when you change this resolution It's going to resize that preview and you will have to rearrange your your sources So if I do this just as a demo Don't actually do this right now, but I'm gonna change both these a 720p and You'll notice that my camera is all misaligned and I have to resize it, right? Yeah, so that's the whole reason why there's a canvas resolution So basically Most of time set these the same set them both the 1080p and that's that's gonna be what most people are gonna want and or need All right, so I'm gonna go back in there and video. The other one is a frame rate. So minus set to 60 30 is probably Often what you want Frankly that most of the stuff I make for like reclaim where I'm making a screen captures 30 is what I use it it's just 30 is like More close to what you see on television most of the time with the exception of sports sports are normally broadcasts 60 FPS and In the OBS world Game streaming usually you do at 60 FPS. It basically just makes things look more. You don't know what frame rate is Just set it to 30 and be done. But if you're curious FPS higher the number the sort of smoother it looks to the to the human eye basically and It will be more taxing on your computer to do a higher number because it has to it's literally frames per second Right, so it has to make an image 60 times a second. That's twice as hard as making an image 30 times per second So my recommendation here would actually be to change this one unless you're doing something specific where you know You need it set these to 1080p set this to 30 for most folks And we'll have a lot of these recommendations put in the blog post as well. Just If you're if you're following along that way too So for now, we're we're done in here We that's really most of the the things we have to worry about we'll come back there later for streaming, but Yeah, so now that we know where our recordings go I'm actually gonna look at that. I'm gonna open up my file browser it was users Taylor movies on Mac OS that should be what it is. It'll be your user use Users your username movies. So basically your home folder in the movies folder. I have a bunch of stuff in here But if I sort by Modified I should have my most recent reporting in here and I can open it up So there there it is. I mentioned before that it makes an MKV video if you want to turn that into mp4 We just go to file then remux recordings and then we just have to Click on this little dot here to open up our file browser. You select your video so in this case, it's the one that I had right there and It went away. Oh Um Okay, that was weird So then here I can just hit remux and that's it. It's done. It's converted to mp4. So if I go into My finder again and go back to movies. There's mp4 version of my video So it's really fast right like obviously this is a small video, but it's Extremely fast that way. Um, I've never oh, that's kind of cool, too. I didn't even notice that There's also a shortcut. You can just go file show recordings and I'll just pop up the recordings folder for OBS That's actually super handy. I didn't I didn't know about that one So that's recording we made a recording and Going back to our slides here. The next thing we're gonna do is we're gonna do stream So again, this is if you're following along with this. This is sort of optional. I want to show how this is done But you don't have a place to stream to or don't want to set up a place to stream to you Don't really have to but I do think it's good to know how it works We are gonna use owncast for streaming and we're gonna deploy it on reclaim cloud And that's mainly because owncast is super fast to get set up with The there are other services that are supported in OBS in fact pretty much if something can't If OBS can't stream to it as far as I'm concerned. It's not really a streaming platform like pretty much everything supports OBS the major streaming platforms too so Let's Switch back to my screen here. And so I'm gonna actually go over to my reclaim cloud Oh, I must have closed that window. Whoops Let me pull it back up so I had just deployed an owncast install and It's very very simple to do if you haven't done this before you can just go to marketplace search for owncast It install Give it an environment name and hit install and that's it And it will have some instructions for you afterwards about how to map a custom domain if you'd like to do that and What your default password is? I'm gonna just check. I'm not gonna even map a custom domain today I'm also just going to log in with the default password for now So the username will be admin by default and the default password for all owncast installs is abc 123 I'm gonna go in and change that right away because we don't want to keep it there. I Will say too. I'll plug the last the I Totally trying to find on the last course we ran did go over setting up owncast too So if you want to learn more detail about that definitely go check that one out. Yeah, for sure The open media ecosystems course covers peer tube as well, which you could also stream to We did Cover the use of owncast although I will say the setting up is very different because since we made that session I made this installer for owncast so You don't have to go through everything that we we talk more about owncast in that session And then we have a link to Jim's blog post on setting it up But this is now what I would recommend is just go to the marketplace hit that owncast button Yeah, and I think we'll have a doc on it pretty soon too. So alright, so I went to I logged in I went to configuration server setup. I'm gonna set a new stream key. I'm actually just gonna use one password to generate a long Thing So if I just go here password generator, you could put this is whatever you want by the way I just want to make something random and So I've set a stream key When I hit save or when I sorry when I hit update this will become my oh, I didn't even notice You can just generate it from here. Oh, that's awesome. Okay. Yeah use this generate button So then copy it copy it because it also becomes your own cast Login or your own cast password And then update it. So I do have that copied so let me log back in just to Okay, cool, that's working and then we need to set it up in OBS so If I go back In sorry if I go back into admin on the home tab it actually has Hey, use your broadcasting software. Here's the URL and here's the stream key. So if I go over to OBS again and I don't have a lot of room to maneuver windows at the moment But that's okay if I go into OBS again, I can go to settings and then stream and You'll notice there's a bunch of services listed in here So it has sort of built-in support for twitch where you can just hit connect account and it will like have you log in and Do that kind of thing it does something similar for YouTube, which is super cool I've never used Facebook live. So it looks like it doesn't do that with Facebook live You need a stream key. I've never used restream IO, but it does have a Login and then I forget Twitter just like streaming but okay But what we're gonna do is custom and this allows us to manually specify a server in the stream key Which is what we need for our own cast. So I'm gonna go to custom and hit copy and By the way, I mean I'm gonna put I guess, you know what we're gonna publish this stream key And if anyone wants to use this during the course of this feel free to stream to it If two people are doing this at the same time, it's gonna give one of you an error though Just just note that but But that is totally fine But I will say if you want to mess around with it You can make a trial account and reclaim cloud and use it for two weeks and pay literally nothing Or if you already have a reclaim a cloud account own cast is very inexpensive to run So you can just turn it off when you're not using it and it will cost you basically nothing so Yeah, so I'm gonna paste in my server and stream key hit okay, and I'm gonna hit start streaming It's important to note that we can stream and record at the same time So I would recommend doing that so own cast in particular does not have any ability to save your Streams after they're done so that they're just gone afterwards So you will probably want to do that But even if you're using a tool that does Having a recording that you're making locally is a good way to have a backup in case you have some kind of internet issue So usually I like to do these things at the same time So Resources on your computer versus the other like if that's a concern that's a perfect. That's a really good question. So it won't if We have things set up the way we do here. So basically in the simple view You're gonna be recording with the same Quality as your stream and so your computer does not have to do twice the work if that makes sense It's using it's making essentially one video but putting it to places. It's probably over simplifying it But that's basically what it's doing In the advanced mode you can have it record at a high quality and stream at a different quality if you want to That would be for Taxing so I wouldn't recommend doing that. But if we're on output mode simple It it really won't be a significant impact It will be a slight one, but it won't be a significant impact as you can see here I've got my CPU is only at 11% So it's not too bad. You'll also notice here that there is Kilobits per second over in the corner. That's the stream. That's my network bandwidth going out I've got a timer here for how long I've been live and how long I've been recording And then this little green Square will show us The health of the stream basically and that's a combination of like hey is your CPU Or your network not doing so well Then you'll turn see that turn from green to yellow to orange to red as the video is getting choppy and bad Moving back over to owncast here for a moment. I kind of love this about owncast It gives you this nice little view here so you can see the stream started at 10.02. It's been going for two minutes Nobody's watching which makes sense. I'm not even watching it yet You can see that this is the quality it's at so We're not really going to go into owncast settings in this thing But owncast by default has a relatively low quality stream. It sets out You might remember that we have ours set to 2,500 kilobits per second and 24 and 30 FPS For the best quality you may want to actually match these up in the owncast settings to what we have in OBS Go to configuration and then I believe video and change it there. Of course not during a stream But I'm not really going to mess with that for this You also can see here. It's kind of cool. It'll actually show you what it's receiving So you can see that hey OBS output module. That's OBS. It's getting 2,500 kilobits per second 30 FPS at 1080p So if I go over to my main owncast page Immute this because otherwise I'll hear myself But I can hit play on this and there's my stream. It's going to be a little bit behind Anytime you're streaming. There's usually a leg between like 10 and 30 sometimes more 10 and 30 seconds or more That's just the time that the server needs to buffer the video to be able to properly send it out to everybody So that that's always going to be sort of part of it It's not going to be live like a zoom or Google meet thing And that's because these types of tools prioritize quality and smoothness over You know fast Video if that makes sense But here we go we're streaming I really love how kind of simple OBS makes or sorry owncast makes this is just you know I'm going to put this up in the second. There's a little chat here You're you're you're going it's it's that that's that's kind of all there is to a basic stream I'm gonna hit stop on these right now Meredith I don't know how much I know you've been following along, but I don't know where you're at Would you want to try if I send you the stream key? Yeah, totally. I'd be I'd be down to give that a try Okay, I've got myself set up in the source and Audio mixer as well And then I can get the stream set up Yeah, I will I know I kind of put you on the spot there But no, it's okay about this but I think it'd be kind of a neat demo So I'm putting in our private chat here in stream yard The first thing is the server and the second thing is the stream key this awesome Just as a refresher you'll go to settings stream and Service will be custom and then the server will go in there and the stream key goes in there perfect Alright That should be good to go. So I'll start streaming and then start recording as well Got an error really quick for okay, oh I Adjusted my recording path. So let me change that super fast Okay, it does look like the streams are already going out though. So that's cool. Okay, cool. I Usually I said it I can just change in the settings. I I more of my organizational side of things I made an extra folder for any recordings. Oh So I didn't make the folder in the In my computer really. Oh, I didn't exist yet basically I get you. Yeah. Yeah, but We have we have liftoff with OBS We are now streaming so Yeah, I I guess I hadn't really thought of this before playing the course But definitely if anyone is watching this during the you know our planned session time here Basically the month of January a little bit in February. I will have this on cast up. So feel free to stream to it I'll put the stream key publicly in on a blog post, which is maybe not an amazing idea, but that's okay and Feel free to stream to it and check out if it's working for you You can throw it in discord or like I said if you want to spin up your own own cast It's very simple to do as as you just saw me do So you can also do that But yeah, I'm excited. This is This is a cool first session and we're gonna go into more stuff next week next next next week will I'll be with pilot and We'll be going through Setting up desktop capture. So you're showing your display Setting up desktop audio, which is a little bit different between Mac OS and Windows. So we'll talk about that and Doing a picture-in-picture camera like we had shown before and making a starting soon Page basically, so we're gonna be setting up more scenes next week And then just we've mentioned this a little bit but in week three. We're gonna talk about advanced stuff. So like audio and lighting and Green screening and and all the possibilities we're gonna we're gonna get into more advanced stuff, but Thanks so much Meredith. Yeah for joining me on this one One one other thing that I totally forgot we got to mention is everything we've done Just feeling back curtains. I just made a mistake and forgot we're gonna talk about this everything we've done as far as recording and streaming can also be sent to Other applications as a virtual camera This isn't gonna make a lot of sense for what we just did because what we've set up so far is just our camera But as you do more advanced things like have your desktop shown in a picture-in-picture in different scenes Next week. We'll also show this you can do things like Output your OBS to another application. So as an example of what that looks like I'm gonna do a little preview for what we're gonna do next week. So let me put my screen back on This won't take very long, but if I go to our jitsie install And I'm just gonna go into This little test room. I already have whoop my browser crash. That's awesome I Specifically intentionally use a different browser for Streamyard the tool we're in so that this never happens But I wonder if there's an issue if I've got Kind of issue, but okay, that's that's good. I don't know why that happened before but so basically I'm not even gonna really go in the call because you'll see from here, but this is a preview of my camera and In jitsie is a video calling tool kind of like zoom or Google meet And if I click on this little preview here, you can see all of my cameras that are available This is my laptop camera. This is my main camera and that's fine But now that we have OBS installed there's also an OBS virtual camera, which is what we're seeing here And if I cancel out of this go back to OBS the third button down is start virtual camera If I click on that It will start up over here So we can see what my OBS output is in Jitsie and that will be my camera. They might say why would you do that? It's literally just your camera right now? Well, yeah, that doesn't make sense until we add more scenes. So if I make a scene and call it display And again, we'll go into more detail on this next week, but I can add my screen here and now I've got in You know, I'm actually going to capture a different screen so I don't have like a Hall of Mirrors Effect here. So this is my laptops display and I'll put over there I don't know we'll put my We'll put that over there that's a web browser over there And so I can actually resize this To fit properly and keep in mind you can also just right-click transform fit to screen It will just kind of do it for you and now my camera is actually my what OBS is Seeing and that's what other folks would see in the call, which is super handy You can do kind of more advanced things like Flip back and forth like if you've ever shared your screen Only to show something quickly, you'll know that it's a huge pain But I can actually just flip back and forth in a flash like this. You also notice that it's flipped Most video capture Sorry, most video conferencing tools will flip it so that you see it at the right perspective When you show your display, it's gonna look weird Just note that this only looks like that for you anyone who's on the other end of the call He's gonna see it the correct direction. So you don't have to worry too much about that But yeah, that's another capability of OBS is that virtual camera stuff So and we'll get more into scenes and things like that in the future, but So some before we kind of wrap there's a couple other things that I wanted to mention Some resources Meredith put in here linked to the OBS documentation. Yeah, totally worth checking out The in fact, it's kind of interesting because I didn't even think to link to this because when I first started using OBS their documentation was like almost non-existent But now it's actually pretty sophisticated. There's a lot in there and It goes into some advanced stuff But there's also some good docs on just like how to use certain features and things like that That's kind of cool the one tricky thing with it is that there is a mixture of like documentation for using it and documentation for developing it, which is obviously Super different use case and not really something I'm concerned or we're concerned about really but that is just another thing in there, too but the other one I wanted to mention is this this OBS masterclass and it's from the channel Epos Vox on YouTube and I'm just gonna pull it up here and then we'll show it but Basically this channel the the guy is pretty focused on like General content creation stuff like individuals who want to use OBS, but He does a ton of different videos But he has this playlist called OBS studio masterclass and you can watch it as one five hour long video if you want to or you can go through and find individual Little couple minutes long clips And it is a couple years old at this point. However, the content is really good So he does a pretty good job of covering sort of more evergreen concepts in OBS and also just getting into like some things that are more Just intrinsic to video and audio production. So like there's a whole section I believe on yeah audio devices and just like how to make audio good and some of it talks about equipment that you may or may not have but I do think a lot of the concepts are Really, like if you really want to get into this, this is where I would go next But this is this is a lot of it is more advanced topic. So if you're feeling Like You're at your limit with what we're talking about right now. I would I would save this for later So if you're coming to this and you already know some of the stuff we're talking about you really want to get really specific This is a good resource to check out too. So Absolutely, I'm definitely gonna check that out Yeah, it's it's and the channel in general is really interesting that he does a lot of like like reviews of gear and Like I got this microphone based off of a set of Basically, I obsessed over microphones for like a week watched a ton of videos found his channel and eventually landed on this thing. So but Yeah, so There's a lot to know. I mean anyone that has and If you've ever dealt with video before and I'm I know Meredith You've probably done like a little bit of video editing and stuff. I know You know that this world goes there's a lot to know, right? It goes deep So it is a little tricky sometimes to kind of Know where to stop if that makes sense So I like to point out that hey, there are these more advanced resources We're not gonna get into like the real crazy like Audio especially the audio production stuff in this course Other than I want audio to work for you So but if you're looking for that, there are really good resources out there and then again throw questions in the discord I'm happy to point folks in more directions if they have more specific questions. So yeah, absolutely I will be be in there chatting with y'all too. So definitely Let us know how it goes getting set up with OBS and then we'll dive into the next week with the Was setting up some more scenes and all that good stuff Yeah, all right. Thanks Meredith. Absolutely

The NSA is spying and was spying and we had Snowden, we have a lot of documents to look at and there is some new research on how they used geolocation methods in mobile networks. It is done by the University of Hamburg and we have here Eric who will present this research to you and he has done this for the German government for the NSA Untersuchungsausschuss which we call NS-Auer which means like NS-Auch kind of. He is a PhD student and holds a master in physics so give him a warm applause and for those coming later please go to your seats and try to be quiet. Yeah, thank you. Hello, I am really happy to have you all here and I welcome you to my talk about... Hello, I think it's good that you are all here, welcome to my talk. I am Alexi, Eric Sy. I am a student here at the University of Hamburg. At the beginning I would like to explain why I am holding this talk. The German parliamentarian investigative committee has set up the NSA Untersuchungsausschuss in NS-Auer to find out how they are involved in the drone war. The government says that they do not know anything or they do not know any possibility. The government says that they have no idea or do not even know how to use a phone number to make a target drone. The committee did not really believe the statement and so they asked our research group at the University of Hamburg to give a report and we handed in that report and the one after what was also published by NetsPolitik.org, thank you for that and it contains technical methods and approximates the accuracy to localize the phone and it also points out which technical identifiers are required to do something like that. Now I give you my agenda for today. First of all, I would like to talk about the purpose of geolocation data and the reason why you need geolocation data, then different possibilities, how you can find someone via geolocations, then specifically about the methods with the drones and then I will talk about which technical identifiers we have for mobile network. And then I will make another summary. It is geolocation data is a technology that we can use to find everyone, for example who lives in the forest or who has already used Google traffic. They use it, for example, to monitor the traffic situation. But we can also use the privacy of a person who uses it to listen out. For example, if we observe an individual for a longer period of time and of course also to carry out targeted drone attacks, but I would like to point out that these data are not suitable to determine a person individually. If you make a drone attack based on this data, you are not sure who you are actually turning around. On the right side you can see a picture of such a crater that has caused a hellfire rocket. You can estimate that the explosion radius is about 120 meters. A targeted drone attack we would estimate something more precise than 20 meters. So the first, the first voguing that I want to show are time measurements. What you see here is a base station used to connect mobile phones with the network. You can see it from a fake station to log on to mobile phones. The method used to find a mobile phone is the triangulation of different masses. A signal moves mostly with the speed, the light speed. So if you have the difference of the different signals that come, you can estimate where the phone is. The accuracy for such a measurement is between 50 and 200 meters. It depends on the size of the cell. So then we have time difference like a round trip measurement. Then we have the difference of the time of the time difference and we have the improved observed time difference and the accuracy is between 50 and 125 meters. So the next method which I want to show you is angular measurements. If you want to determine the direction of arrival, then I would say you do a calculation which is called a triangulation of the position of the two base stations and also the direction of the antenna. The accuracy is approximately 100 to 200 meters from experiments and the difficulty of this method and the last sheet is that you don't always have a contact with the mobile phone to the base station. So the signal is destroyed and destroyed by buildings in between and the accuracy suffers from it. The next method which I want to show, which most of you know, most of you know, is GPS. GPS satellites broadcast their position and the actual time and the mobile phone triangulates these data to determine their own position. The accuracy varies, but that depends on the chipset of the mobile phone. The base station can then ask the mobile phone for the radio resource location service protocol. A further method to take over are, for example, the mobile phone networks, the SSID data that you have on your phone. These allow the accuracy of the position of less than 10 meters. It is definitely possible to cut this communication in order to determine the position of a person. Here in the first example, each of the Google Maps is used on a mobile phone. And that's 2008 from the Snowden archives. So there we see at least that it was possible at that time, we have evidence for that. There you can see that people used it to recognize the position of people. And if you want to determine the location with the SSID, it is necessary that you have a card on which it is shown where different Wi-Fi access points are positioned for example. And for that, we also have a proof that it was done by the NSA, that was the Mission Victory Dance, where they used the Wi-Fi fingerprint, that was in Yemen, where they did relatively a lot of drone shots. That was the next method. Signal system number seven is a protocol that is used to communicate between network providers. And network providers need to know in which cell a mobile phone is to enable the communication. The position of the mobile phone is saved in a local register and third parties, other people can ask this position. Here I refer to a lecture by Tobias Engel, who has been holding it for two years, who goes into detail on this method. And if you want, you can also ask commercial providers to ask this data. Now let's talk about drones. We have very good evidence that the geolocation position recognition of drones is made. A proof for that is the Gilgamesh system. This is a method for active geolocation recognition on the Predator drones, which a MCCatcher describes. If one of you has more documents for something like that, it would be very cool to be able to see something about it. It was a call, if you have documents, give it on. The easiest method would be to ask the GPS coordinates. You just have to exchange the base location with the drone. And the method that is better, or where I think it is preferred, is the angular measurement. If our foreman looks at our report, you can see that we find the accuracy of this method and that it is between 5 and 35 meters from a height of 2 kilometers distance. And if you get closer to the mobile phone, it becomes even more accurate. It would be enough for a certain degree to make targeted drones a crime in the meantime. So while this report was handed over to the Bundestag, I have found other works that speak with a accuracy of 1 meter to 3 kilometer height. You have to know that these sensors to recognize the angle of the phone when the bigger plane becomes lighter to recognize the position. I also want to show that a single measurement can be sufficient to determine the position of the phone if we can assume that the phone is located on the ground. For example, if the phone is located in a building in Yemen, a measurement would be sufficient. So a low building in a high house would not be so good. The big advantage of this method is that nature has little influence. For example, if you don't see things. Now I'm going to talk about the identification and how the identifiers can be used to recognize the position. Every base station or IMSI location can send a request to the position and then get an IMSI or EMI back. An IMSI is like a unique description for a customer in a mobile phone network. And the EMI is a unique serial number for a device. If we include these methods in the Internet Traffic Minds, we can add a lot more identifiers. For example, an Apple ID or Google ID, a MAC address, cookies or user names. I'm really interested in that. Could you follow this link to the photo? There's a lot of interesting stuff about it. I'm coming to my last photo, to my summary. There are many different methods to determine the position of a mobile phone. I've also shown that a single drone can locate a mobile phone with a precision of a target drone attack. You said that the precision of these methods is not accurate enough. Then I've shown that the identifier of a mobile phone, the IMSI or EMI, can be used to determine the geoposition of a mobile phone. And the last information I want to give you is that geoposition can't be used to identify which person the device actually has. That means that they are not actually sure who uses the mobile phone. They only pay attention to the signal that the mobile phone sends. And they can also transfer the wrong person. Thank you for your attention. I thank my colleagues and my family and everyone. That was very nice. Thank you. That was the first lecture today where we can answer many, many questions. Come to the microphone, number one, number two, three, four. And ask your questions. It's your only chance to get an answer from this man. No questions. There's someone. No. Yeah. Sorry. No problem. Number four. Okay, the first question from number four. Hello. Do you know why we are in London right now? We are using Google Maps here. Can you ask again? Do you know why we are located in London? Yes, when we use Google Maps, we are in London. Do you know that? The Congress is located in London. Do you know why? I'm not aware. Okay. Can you please be quiet? We can't understand the questions unless you are quiet. Sorry. Okay, so on slide 12 you showed a different method. Is this a passive method or does it require an active target? It can be passive. As long as you just turn on the phone. So it has to be active in the sense that it is connected to the network. But you don't need an INSI catcher for it or something like that. You just call it and see what happens. You look at which phone is back and then you know which phone it is. I see that we have a question over there. Can you just ask a question, please? Yes, number eight, please. Thank you for the talk. I'd like to ask you a question. Can you tell us about the connection of mobile phones that are powered without electricity? Of mobile phones that are switched off. Can you elaborate on different methods? So from the user perspective. And what is it with which they took out their batteries? The answer, the answer. So to be honest, if you switch off your phone for several months, then you are sure. That's good to know. But actually, like if you have a base station and someone switches off his phone because he just wants to talk to someone privately. But if someone else, if you meet someone and he switches off his phone, then it can be suspicious. But then it really depends on whether I always look at these data or not. Thank you. Number eight again? A question from microphone number eight. I have a short question. You described, somehow, that we are dependent on the good will from, for example, the NSA. And I would like to know if there is any way to prevent that you send this information, if you use Google Maps, for example. That is fairly difficult. That's the answer. That is very difficult. I would guess that GPS phones are a little bit better for us to prevent something like that. Yes, for example, if you set up GPS buffing, because the network cells are very large and therefore it is more difficult to position yourself in the cell. And if you emit a physical signal, then the drone will always be able to localize where the signal came from. But the drone will always be able to find out where the signal comes from if you send it. It's just physically difficult. Number one thing. I have a question about the physicality of receiving or positioning of positions in a, for example, really deep-fledged region. If that is done by a drone that is 3 kilometers away, that would of course be more sensitive, that you have to be more sensitive about what your evaluation is. And then you have to be able to sort out better in the same time, with all the intelligence and so on. The answer. Normally, such a cell is between 200 and 3 kilometers big. That's why 3 kilometers in the height are not really high. So you assume that a drone meets a preliminary selection and only looks at a sub-frequency, because it, for example, knows which network you come from and in which cell you are. It depends on the region. In the urban environment, you have to reduce the size of a cell because otherwise you get too much information. But you can also have bigger cells in remote areas. Because of the remote areas, the drones are the size of a quadcopter or the size of a plane. Do you have the classic methods to observe something for a longer time while you fly over it to integrate it into your calculation? Those are the methods with which we get our high resolution radar pictures. Yes, you can use different measurements, but you can only use one if you already know where the target is. But that's not necessarily necessary. Thank you. One question from the internet. Yes, the internet wants to know if there are attributes that you can change from your phone to stop surveillance, for example the email address. The email, not the email. Yes, of course, you can fake the email or the IMSI. That's another reason why the mobile alone is not enough to prove who the person is. Another question from the internet is does the GSM network have a feature that allows everyone to ask the GPS data from a mobile phone? Yes, it would also be the Radio Resource Location Service protocol. The Radio Resource Location Service protocol is the answer. Thank you. Hello. You never, you worked to the NSA investigation office? They had an NSA investigation office and the Bundestag didn't say anything about it. Is there a statement from the NSA investigation office? Yes, the government said that. They said that they washed their hands clean. We did everything nice and nice because we added a disclaimer to the data. And then the disclaimer says that the NSA has to stick to the German law and then also to make sure that they stick to the German law and therefore the data cannot be misused. Another question from microphone 6. Hello. You specified that the accuracy is about 5 meters with two drones. How would it be if you used more than 10 drones? I think it's a misunderstanding. One drone is long enough. Okay, then you could use more than one drone? Yes, you can use as much as you want. Yes, of course. But do you improve the accuracy? Yes, if you go closer, then yes. But with the same distance, but with more drones? No, actually not. Another question. I'm talking about the accuracy. You went into experiments. Have you conducted these experiments yourself? Answer. Number two, please. Yes, here's a list of things in the references where it says. My question is about the fingerprinting of the mobile. For example, in the app, which requires the fingerprinting at any time that your app, for example, asks for the fingerprinting, is this to identify the person, whether they can connect it. Yes, but I think it depends on the GSM network and the other one is dependent on the operating system. Okay, so with the current technology, is it not possible to connect it? No. So my question is about the civil use of such data. You always say geodata. They are from Wi-Fi networks and so on. And you say, yes, that you use the database from Google or something like that. There was a lecture here in 2009. Back then, it was called Skyhook. And the speaker had this provocative question, should this Wi-Fi map not be public domain, be accessible to everyone and not only belong to Apple or Google as a proprietary system. So we have, so to speak, lost this gap. So we gave our first IDs to the public domain and they shouldn't be public domain because of that. Yes, should you be able to help people in emergency situations? I would like to say thanks for the lecture and the people who have the report. It was very helpful for us because I am an expert and the people from the secret services just don't give us any information. And we need it. So for the information for you, that was one of the session members there. Okay, thanks. The talk is over. This is from the office.

What The Heck Is..... The Quarter Quarter Quarter System for Simply Making Strong Drawers
Drawers will last long if there are some interlocking joints of some kind, like dovetails. The is a really simple way of making strong drawers using the Quarter Quarter Quarter system to create "Locking Rabbet" joinery. The Table Saw is set up with a Dado Stack one time and then all the joints are cut without ever changing the setup. This is one of the videos from our "What the Heck Is... " video series - these are designed to be short and useful for beginning woodworkers. Our plan is to have many of these available within a short period of time - check out the Playlist.

What the heck is the quarter-quarter-quarter method of making very simple, but very strong drawers? Well, I would workers Paul crossing here small workshop guy This drawer system uses what are called locking rabbit joints now that sounds very very complicated I know the beginners here Maybe your eyes are glazing over and you're grabbing that mouse to go to another video because that sounds way too difficult Stick with me. It's not and what we're doing here. It's just an overview I'm also going to give you links down below to two other videos and one blog article Talking more about the method Now it's only called quarter quarter quarter because we're I'm using half inch wide stock What we do is we set up a dado stack on the table saw that is as wide as one half of The workpiece that I'm using so if I'm using a one half inch Workpiece sides here front back and sides Then I'm going to set up my dado stack to be Precisely one quarter of an inch wide one half of this In addition, I'm going to set up the dado stack to be one quarter of an inch tall again one half of the material that I'm using and I'm going to set up the fence on the table saw to be one quarter of an inch away From the dado stack so a quarter high Excuse me quarter wide a quarter high and a quarter distance however, if you want to use three quarter inch Sides and bottom and so forth then just do everything based on one half of that So that's why stumpy nubs if you go to his video says hey I'd rather call this the half half half system because that gives you The idea of how to use it no matter what the width Of your work component. So let me show you kind of how the drawer fits together Again, it's all done with one setup on the table saw Once you've cut your sides to their length and to their width You're going to prepare your stock first all of your stock first and then we're talking about doing the joinery So once you've got all of your stock prepared the right length the right width and so forth Then you're going to cut these joints. Let me take this apart to show you that joinery And again, this is just an overview video So here's the joinery on the two sides Actually on all four of these pieces the two sides the front and the back We cut a slot I call it a slot because it's running with the grain Not across the grain if you have a slot like this a lot of you might call that a dado If it's with the grain it's called a slot if it's a cross grain it's called a dado All right, so all four of these have a slot Which is one quarter of an inch from the bottom One quarter of an inch wide and one quarter of the inch deep You're going to get all of those automatically off of that table saw setup that I described All right, so all four of them get a slot and that slot is to then receive Your bottom whether that bottom be a quarter inch piece of plywood Or i'm going to in my method i'm going to talk about how to just go ahead and use half inch Because I like the strength for that All right, everything gets a slot the two sides get a dado Running up and down the side And that is a quarter of an inch in and a quarter of an inch deep And a quarter of an inch wide again. That's the way my table saw is set up So I just if this is my table saw blade here I just pass that over the blade up against the fence And get all of those dimensions So the two sides Have these dados on the ends The front and the back end up with a rabbet cut along the edge of this outside That leaves a tenon If you can see that that leaves a tenon On the inside face Of the front and the back so I cut that rabbet that creates that tenon And that's all that's done to those pieces So they have a slot on the inside And then a rabbet on the outside which creates a tenon on the same face as the slot So we're done there In my method I run this across my same setup on my table saw to create this rabbet Which then creates This quarter inch tenon and that's what I fit into the bottom grooves So let's see how this goes together. Let me admit to you that My tolerances here are a little too wide and so things are a little sloppy to handle And that makes the assembly more difficult You don't want things to be too tight though Otherwise when you glue it up and things start spreading you'll have difficulty getting things put together So anyway I'm just going to put these these uh dados over these uh tenons or and then I'm going to hold that together here Just for an extra pair of hands Very lightly I'm going to turn this up And slide my bottom in I got to slide my bottom in Before I put on the back otherwise there won't be any way to put it in So with that clamp down there helping hold it I just Try to squeeze this in place Use get a little pressure here Let that drop down And try to see That it's going all the way into the slot on the bottom And you can tell that All right, and then finally This this is probably the trickiest one of all. I need this slot to go over the the bottom And then I need this tenon to get into This dado Batao, there's that one If we have any luck at all We'll be able to get the other one on And if you have difficulty getting it on it just means something's Out of sync somewhere All right, and there is the drawer Again the concept is that this tenon goes into that dado And that creates a strong bond particularly if you had your tolerances a little better than I have this one You can either glue in the bottom or not glue it in I like in the method I'm going to show you I actually cut the back shorter So that I have an opening to slide in the bottom And then I like to leave the bottom loose, but then I tack it with a screw That way I can replace it if I need to for some reason All right, well, that's it. It's called the Quarter quarter quarter system if you're using half inch stock And it's using locking rabbit joints So watch for my detailed video part two of my cabinet build series And also take a look at the stumpy nubs video. It is excellent and there's a link to that down below Always remember You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf small workshop guy signing off What the heck is the very simple Drawmaking system called the quarter quarter quarter method What the heck is a very simple but yet a very strong method for making drawers called the quarter quarter quarter method What the heck is a very strong but a very simple method for making What the heck is a very simple but a very strong What the heck is the quarter quarter quarter method for making very simple and very strong drawers What the heck is the quarter quarter quarter system for making very simple but very strong drawers what the heck is no what the heck is the quarter quarter quarter method of making very simple but very strong drawers

Australia is one of the best markets that we can dropship to today and that is because of the ultra high demand versus the very low competition. But in order to be able to dropship successfully in Australia, we'll have to couple with the best Australian dropshipping suppliers who can ship really quickly from Australia to Australia, which is exactly what we'll be going over in this video. So quick intro and let's go. Hello everyone and glad to have you here today to learn about the top nine Australian dropshipping suppliers to help jumpstart your Australian dropshipping business and really help make those sales and profits with fast shipping times and exclusive benefits to Australian dropshippers. So without further ado, we're going to get right on with the list. One second before that, if you have not done so yet, this is the part right now where you need to subscribe to our YouTube channel to always stay updated on all of the latest and all of the hottest topics that are coming out in the world of dropshipping. And of course like and share this video if you appreciate the value. And by the way, guys, everything that I'm mentioning in this video is in our blog article, which I'll leave a link to right below this video to help you guys organize the information much better after watching this video. So after watching the video, go ahead and read the article, save the suppliers to your list and jump straight into the action. So let's go ahead and get on with the list. The first Australian dropshipping supplier that you guys should consider working with is Amazon Australia. Now I know that many of you dropshippers are thinking but Amazon is a retail marketplace. Can we actually dropship from them? The answer to that is yes, you can dropship from Amazon Australia as thousands of other dropshippers are doing it, not just from the Australian region. Let me show you guys what Amazon Australia looks like. And if you just click on Amazon in the link below this video in our blog article, you'll be taken straight to Amazon Australia's website, which is amazon.com.au. Now as you can see here, I'm in Amazon Australia's website and I've also changed my ship to an Australian address so that I can see what can ship from and to Australia. Now I'm in Amazon's bestseller section. What I'm going to do is head inside any category that's good for the dropshipping business model like pet supplies. So I'm going to go ahead and click on that. And now let's enter any one of these listings. So for example, I'm going to go for this cat and dog brush over here. And by the way, this is a great tip guys. If you want to know what products to sell, always go inside the bestsellers and also new releases in your suppliers websites. And that way you'll be able to get some great ideas of what products you probably should be selling. This is just one product research method. And if you guys want to learn more about product research methods, we have them all on our blog page and all in our YouTube channel product finding bestsellers, everything from our years and years of experience in dropshipping and of course with our huge, huge products and sales analytics database. Okay, so as you see here, we've got a cat and dog brush. The ship to address over here is to an Australian address. So we know that it can ship to Australia. And we've got the estimated delivery time. So that's how we can check all of the products that we have in Australian warehouses using Amazon. And this is one of the best dropshipping suppliers that you can use today. Amazon of course has fast shipping times, very high quality customer care. So if there's any problem with any one of your orders, you can easily open up a chat with an Amazon representative and get help on whatever you need help with. They have a huge selection of products. I think one of the biggest in the industry. And of course, you've got categories that will help you with your product research like the bestsellers, movers and shakers, new releases and so forth. Amazon Australia is number one on the list for Australian dropshipping suppliers that can ship quickly from Australia to Australia. This brings us to number two on the list. Number two is Banggood Australia. So just like Amazon has warehouses in US and in Australia and also many other countries around the world, the same goes for Banggood. Here is Banggood Australia's main page. As you can see here in the URL, the URL starts with au.banggood.com instead of the usual www.banggood.com, which is the US warehouses Banggood. Now we're looking at Banggood Australian domain. So any product that I click on here will take me to products that can ship to Australia. And I can also see that by the ship to right here on the top right, you can see that it ships to an Australian flag because I changed my shipping to an Australian address. Just set the right currency. So in this case, we're going to go with Australian dollar and click on save. Now what we want to do next on Banggood is to make sure that the products are coming from Australian warehouses and not just shipping to Australia. In other words, we don't want to look for products that are coming from US or Chinese warehouses and import them into Australia because this way our estimated delivery time is going to be much, much higher and our customers are not going to be so happy about that. This video is all about fast shipping to Australia and that is what I'm going to explain to you guys because once again, these products are not coming from Australian warehouses, but they can ship to there. So what you want to do here is click up here on one week delivery. This is going to take you to a page where you can see all of the products that Banggood can ship from Australian warehouses, which means up to one week delivery. Your buyers are going to be happy and they'll most likely return to purchase from your store again or refer a family or friend. So here we've got the one week delivery page and you've got all of the different categories over here. So you've got lots of categories, lots of products to choose from and as you can see, our ship to is Australia. So all of these products can ship within a week to Australia. This is the page where you guys want to be at when using Banggood and one of the best things about Banggood, besides the fact that they've got over a million products for you to resell, they completely support dropshipping. So they're actually looking for dropshippers like you and I to do business with them and to resell their products. They've got low competitive prices that are sourced from China and they've got all kinds of dropshipping perks and benefits. If you are a member of Banggood, which has no subscription costs whatsoever. So Banggood is number two on our list. Number three is catch Australia. Now these guys have been around since 2006. They've got local fulfillment centers. So once again, you can ship your products really quickly from catch to your Australian warehouses. This is what their website looks like. And once again, it's all for the Australian audience. So all of the products that they have can ship quickly. Just always make sure that you are looking into categories that are fit for the dropshipping business model. We don't want to sell any big brands that we know of, like the Dyson that we have here. On the other hand, Homewares is a great category where we can get all kinds of things that we can dropship and also, of course, tools or accessories to the big brands that we know. So tools for the iRobot vacuum, accessories for other types of vacuum cleaners that you definitely can sell. Those are just some quick tips. But what you want to do, of course, is click here on shop all categories and go inside categories that are great for the dropshipping business model as long as they're not big brands. And just by going through over here, you guys can see the crazy amount of categories and products and subcategories and niches and sub niches that you guys can tap into when working with suppliers like catch.com.au. From Australia to Australia, quick shipping, check them out. They're number three on our list. Moving on to number four, we've got a website called Kogan. For anyone who lives in Australia, I'm sure that you guys have heard of this retail marketplace. And this is another great place to find products that you can ship quickly, domestically. And you've also got all kinds of exclusive membership deals, a wide range of products to choose from. And you've also got self branded products from smaller companies who will be happy for you to resell their products. This is a quick glance at Kogan's front page. As you see here, they've got big banners and sales going on pretty much all of the time. And all of the categories on the left side. This looks like your Australian AliExpress website. It's simply a huge marketplace with thousands and thousands of products. So I'm not going to get too much into it now. Once again, use the links below this video and check out what Kogan has to offer. Number five on our list is Target Australia. For anyone who lives living in the United States, you guys know what target I'm talking about. Even though Target Australia is not really related to the target that we know in the United States, it's pretty much the same concept. So here is Target Australia. They've got a wide range of course of products that you can choose from. Only many products here can be from brands. So you do need to watch out what you're selling. Make sure that it's not from a big brand, a copyrighted product, a product that was trademark and so forth. For those of you who don't know what categories you need to dive into, we've got a wonderful video and a wonderful blog article on the best dropshipping categories for dropshipping. So once again, guys, check out our YouTube channel, check out our blog page at Autodesk.com slash blog, and you'll be able to learn so much more when it comes to what products you need to sell, what categories are good and things you should stay away from. But once again, Target is a huge, huge supplier with so many products in so many categories. And the best part about it here is we're shipping from Australia to Australia, which is what we're looking for. Number six on our list is a website called Crazy Sales. Now, just like AliExpress and Banggood, these guys are super dropshipping friendly. They're waiting for dropshippers to sign up and resell their products. And once again, Crazy Sales is another one of those dropshipping friendly websites. So here's what they look like on the front page. Again, it looks like another AliExpress forum of Australia, but this just shows you that AliExpress knows what they're doing. So many websites, so many big companies are copying their website because their layout is very user friendly. And even though I'm seeing a big mess here in front of my face, I can see all of the important things. So I know that these products are coming from Australia. I know that shipping is going to be quick. As you can see here, fast delivery for online shopping in Australia. They've got great customer service. They've got over one million happy customers. They've won awards for online shopping in Australia. They've got a 30 day return policy, which you can of course pass on to your buyers. So if your supplier is giving you 30 days, then you're going to give your buyers 30 days. If they're giving you 60, you can also give them 60. And hopefully they're not giving you less than 30, but even 14 is good. No return policy is not as good. So try to stay away from suppliers who cannot offer you returns. So once again, all of the categories here on the left, broken down here on the right, and you can just see what's going on here. You can get a little example, a little glance of what's going on. Guys, check out crazy sales. Every product here is great for the dropshipping business model because that's what they're looking for. They're looking for dropshippers to resell their items. So you won't find items that you cannot sell. And everything that I'm seeing here are products that I've trended in the past or are even trending now. So definitely go ahead and give them a shot for fast shipping times, wide range of products, and official support for dropshipping, a great customer support team, and of course, reimbursements if needed. If there are any problems, their customer support is great. Number seven on the list is a website called mydeal. Now this is another retailer coming from Australia with products in fast shipping from Australia to Australia, as you guys have probably guessed. Now as you guys can see here on the front page, we've got big brands and we've also got small brands to know brands, which is what you guys should be looking for. Now this is another one of those websites where you do need to know what you can sell and what categories and products you actually need to stay away from. So if you don't have that knowledge yet, once again, go learn it from our blog channel, learn it from our YouTube page. And once you do get a grasp of what products you can and cannot resell, come back to mydeal and start adding their trending products. Once again, guys, from Australia to Australia, that's what we're here to do. Their website is very user friendly. They've got a great refund policy. So if there are any problems, no problems whatsoever. And once again, a large selection of high quality products. Number eight on our list is a website called trade me. Now this is only available to people who actually live in Australia. So if you don't live in Australia, skip on to the next supplier. If you do live in Australia, you can create an account on trade me. Now trade me is like another form of eBay for Australia, even though eBay also exists in Australia. But this is another place where people can sell their second hand products and be able to make a profit from that sell. So that's pretty self explanatory. But how can it benefit us as drop shippers? What we're going to do here is click on browse. And here you can see that you have trade me stores. So I'm going to click on that. And here you can find all kinds of stores that are selling their products on trade me, which are not second hand products, which you can then resell as a drop shipper. So you can browse between the different categories that you have here, or simply enter one of these stores. So for example, let's look for something that can be good for drop shippers like let's buy gold jeweler. So I want to sell some jewelry on my store. We're going to click right here on view store. Now their storefront is loading up. And as you see, you've got positive feedback, which is very similar to eBay's positive feedback ranking system where you've got the stars and the positive feedback and everything. And if I scroll down, we can actually see the jewelry that this store is selling. So in this case, it's actual real jewelry. It's not going to be so easy for you to resell because these are high ticket items. But that's just one example. Now it's not a secret that product research takes some time. So let's go back and look for another store. How about this one over here case studio we specialize in importing and manufacturing accessories for smartphones and tablets. So we're in case studio store. This guy has a lot of feedback, 123,495 positive feedback. And as you can see here, all of these phone cases and screen protectors and accessories, you can drop ship each and every one of these items. And just look at the prices here, $2 for this screen protector, $4 for this glass screen protector. Now some of them you may have to pay for shipping like another $4 here, but it still ships really quickly to your Australian audience and you can easily find products here for you to resell. This seller has over 1450 pages full of accessories to sell. Believe me, their audiences cannot see all of their products. So if you resell them too, the audience can find them in your store instead of having to go through a thousand pages to find a certain type of case. So this is just another idea that you guys can implement when conducting your product research. The ninth supplier that can help you drop ship products from Australian warehouses to your Australian audience is Aliexpress Australia. So once again, you guessed it, Aliexpress also has warehouses in Australia where we can ship quickly from Australian warehouses to our Australian target audience. So the first thing that you want to make sure of on Aliexpress is change the ship to on the top banner to Australia. So we want to see all of the products that can ship to Australia. But once again, just like Banggood, we also have to make sure that they're shipping from Australia. That way we can get fast shipping times. So what we're going to do here is search for anything. For example, cupholder. And as you see here, I've got the results of all the cupholders, but I'm not sure which warehouse they're coming out from. I just know that they can ship to Australia like I configured up here. So what I want to do next is under the search results right here, we've got the ship from drop down menu. I want to click on that and see if we've got this product also coming from Australian warehouses, which in this case, it is a positive. So as you see here, we've got Australia, Turkey and China. What I'm going to do is of course, click on Australia. And now as you can see my search results have refreshed and I can see all of the products that can actually ship from Australian warehouses. So shipping from Australia to Australia, this is the way to do it on Aliexpress. Use the drop ship center to see what products are trending and then look for those products in Australian warehouses. This is where you're going to get fast shipping times, great prices. And once again, great profits to be had drop shipping from Aliexpress, one of the best drop shipping friendly suppliers that we have out there. So that sums up the video of the top nine Australian drop shipping suppliers to use when drop shipping to Australia. And once again, all of these suppliers can drop ship from Australian warehouses. That's the most important thing here. We want to decrease the shipping time as much as possible. This way we're going to get more returning customers, more happy customers and a higher chance of them referring our store to their friends and family who like the quality of their product and ask them where they got it from. They'll remember you that store with a fast shipping from Australian warehouses. So that sums up this video for you guys. I hope that you enjoyed it. Let me know in the comments below if you're using one of these suppliers and how well it's going for you. Once again, guys, subscribe to our YouTube channel to always stay updated on all of the latest and all of the hottest topics that we have coming out in the world of drop shipping. Like this video and share it if you appreciate the value. Thank you for watching and I'll see you in the future videos.

My name is Cameron Stewart. Thanks for coming out to my talk today. I work for Pivotal. At Pivotal, I'm a partner solutions architect. So that means that I lend technical support to our partners. Before working at Pivotal, I went through the Galvanize full-stack immersive program. So it's really cool to see Galvanize sponsoring this event, and to hear all about the amazing work that they're doing with Allstate. That is my Twitter handle if you do the Twitter and you want to find me, that's how I can be found on Twitter to be perfectly honest. I'm a little bit of what I would call a Twitter late bloomer, but I am on the bandwagon now. So that's how you can find me. Of course, I am available through other platforms of communication, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, or good old-fashioned email. So if you want to stay in touch or if you have questions, please don't hesitate to stay in touch. I would love to talk to you. So I have to be honest, that I picked out a pretty decent outfit for you all today, but then I was in the Expo Hall, and I was talking with the awesome folks at Grapebub, and I noticed they had these really cool t-shirts. I thought that it's fitting for the name of this track that I get a t-shirt. So I definitely encourage you to go and talk to the Grapebub folks. They offer professional services around Cloud Foundry. So you should talk to them because they're experts in Cloud Foundry, and also because they have really awesome t-shirts. But we didn't come here to talk about t-shirts, because obviously mine takes the cake. We came here to talk about technology. These technologies specifically, today we're going to discuss Bosch and using Bosch to deploy concourse onto Google Cloud Platform. The reason why we're going to talk about all of these technologies is because everyone is trying to go faster. I think as organizations and as developers, we're all trying to go faster. We're all trying to get code out the door into the hands of our end users as fast as possible. I don't hear anyone in the keynote saying, we were actually doing things too fast and getting features into the hands of our end users a little too quickly, so we decided to slow things down. That's not what you hear in the keynotes. It's obvious that what everyone is after is that rocket fuel. We're all looking for what it is that's going to give us the ability to go faster, not only to go faster but to be able to go fast and still innovate with confidence. What gives you that rocket fuel is the combination of different technologies and also processes and methodologies that support those technologies. I like to talk a lot about Cloud Native and what the characteristics of Cloud Native are, and what companies that you would consider Cloud Native, some of the aspects of those companies and how they're doing what they do. I think that some of the aspects are building applications into microservices architecture or having continuous integration, continuous delivery, and that's one that we're definitely going to talk about a lot today. You absolutely must automate your path to production. This is something that we all know, well, I don't think this should come as a surprise to anybody at this point, but one of the core things that you're going to need in order to be successful or to be Cloud Native and to assist you on your digital transformation is to have high levels of automation in place. What that accomplishes is that automation will give you that confidence, that confidence to make changes or to introduce new features without running the risk that it'll break other parts of your code. Having automation in place is really the safety net that allows you to innovate at a rapid pace. We're going to talk about different methods of automation and different levels of automation that will give you that confidence and that security. First, we're going to talk about concourse because we just mentioned that you absolutely have to automate your path to production if you even want to stand a chance at your digital transformation, your digital journey at being Cloud Native, automating your path to production is the first step. We're going to talk about concourse. Concourse was originally designed as a tool for the deployment of Cloud Foundry. We're going to take a look at some of the contracts of concourse. First one is resources. These are the three main concepts within concourse. Before I actually dive in, I wanted to do a quick poll of the audience. Who here has played with concourse or is currently using concourse? Just about everybody, that's awesome. We're at a Cloud Foundry summit, so I imagine that just about everybody has heard about Bosch. What about GCP? Has anyone using Google Cloud platform? Awesome. Just wanted to get a sense of where we were in the audience. Jumping back into concourse, there's three main concepts within concourse. There are resources, jobs, and tasks. Resources you can think of as anything that can be versioned and that you can pull down. A great example of a resource is a GitHub repo. We're going to take a look at an example later on of a concourse pipeline. Within that concourse pipeline, we're just pulling down a GitHub repo. From that GitHub repo, we are running tasks. Tasks are usually described within a job. A job is all of these things really come together to make your overall pipeline. A task is usually a shell script or some script that is run that accomplishes a single task. A job will describe how tasks and resources interact with each other. If we talk about Bosch, those are the overarching concepts within concourse. If we talk about the main concepts within Bosch, we have stem cells, releases, and deployments. Stem cells are the base OS image that Bosch uses to create VMs. It's an OS image, but it also includes basic utilities and an agent. The agent is responsible for a number of functions, not only for sending out a heartbeat of the VM, but when Bosch is deploying a distributed system, the agent will go to the blob store to pull down the packages to install the specific software on those VMs. The stem cell is basically that OS image that Bosch uses to create your VMs of your deployment. The release describes all of the packages and the start-stop scripts that are needed for whatever you are deploying. Bosch was originally the tool that was responsible for the deployment and lifecycle management of Cloud Foundry, but Bosch in general is a great tool chain for deployment and lifecycle management of any kind of large-scale distributed system. In this case, obviously, we're going to deploy concourse. So there are many uses outside of Cloud Foundry that Bosch can be used for. It's really good for any large-scale distributed system. Bosch is really going to give you the capabilities that you need in order to handle some of the challenges that those large systems will present. So you start with a stem cell and then you layer your release on it. And a release is, again, whatever you are going to be deploying the software that you are actually using Bosch to deploy. And a deployment then describes the VMs that will get created with that software. And the deployment requires a manifest. Bosch operates on the notion of manifests. And a manifest describes the deployment that you will end up creating. So we see all these things together. I want to give you a high-level overview of how I've set up what we're going to walk through. So first, let's take a look at kind of a high-level overview of all of the things that you need in order to use Bosch to deploy concourse onto GCP. And we're going to start with our GCP environment. So I have a GCP account. And the first thing that you're going to need is you're going to need a project. That's pretty basic. Step one for anything you're going to want to do with GCP. Within that, you're going to want to have a user that is an owner of that project. And you're going to want to create a service account that has editor access for your project. Once you have your GCP environment configured, these are the steps that we're going to walk through in order to get Bosch up and running. The first thing is that we're going to use Terraform to create the required infrastructure that Bosch is going to need. And the first step is creating the Bash MVM that will become your Bosch director. The Bosch director is a server that orchestrates your Bosch deployment. So the Bosch director is really the boss you can think of. And so the first step in deploying Bosch is to get your Bosch director set up. So we're going to use Terraform in order to stand up the Bosch director. Once the director is stood up, then we can turn our attention towards deploying concourse. So we're going to deploy our Bosch director on the infrastructure that Terraform has set up for us. Then once we have the director, we're going to upload the stem cells and then upload the releases that concourse will require. Once we have those things uploaded to the Bosch director, it's as simple as uploading one additional file, which is your cloud config. The cloud config is basically all of your IaaS specific configuration that you will need. So previously, all of your cloud configuration was in a single file, which could be very problematic if you were using multiple IaaSes, which Bosch is definitely the tool that gives you the ability to be IaaS agnostic to have multiple clouds that you're deploying your applications to. So if you're deploying your applications to multiple clouds, it made sense within Bosch to have separate cloud configs that would contain that IaaS specific configuration. So you will upload and Bosch will update the cloud configuration, and then you will simply deploy concourse with the simple command Bosch deploy. So that is a high level of the process that you would go through in order to use Bosch to deploy concourse onto GCP. And so now we're going to take a quick look at that. Okay, so the first thing that I'm going to do is I'm going to SSH to my Bosch bastion. And what we're going to look at first is we're going to look at the manifest file for our Bosch director. Initially, I had an ERB file, and what this is essentially doing is this is capturing the environment variables, and then I just populate my manifest, my YAML file, with the values that I captured here in the ERB file. But we can take a look at this version as fine. So if we take, I mentioned that a manifest will describe the, a manifest describes how Bosch will create the resulting resource. And so if we take a look at the Bosch director manifest, we see a number of things. We're going to talk about some of the things that are consistent across all manifests. When you see here cloud properties, that is always what is unique to your, the IS that you may be using. So in this case, I'm using GCP. We're always going to have the notion of the releases. So this is the manifest for my Bosch director. So the releases that I'm using here are Bosch and the Bosch Google CPI. The CPI is the cloud provider interface, and that is the API that Bosch uses to communicate with your underlying IaaS. So we have to have that in place so that when we go to deploy concourse, Bosch has a communication channel to communicate with your underlying IaaS to create the required resources that we need for whatever distributed system that we are deploying. So we see our releases here. We also see the URL of the release. This is where you can access that release. The release can also, the Bosch team manages all of, well, Bosch release can be available as either a tarball or as a URL, as you see here. Then we have our resource pools. So this is what ends up getting created for us once we hit Bosch deploy. We see our networks, and then we have the number of jobs. So with Bosch, a number of things get deployed, and so there are a number of components in the Bosch architecture, and you can really see those here. You have a health monitor. You have the CPI. Again, that's the way that Bosch communicates with the underlying IaaS. The health monitor is the tool or the way that Bosch understands the health of VMs and understands if they are online and healthy or if they are down and need to be resurrected. The Blob Store and PostgreSQL database to persist both VM states. The Blob Store holds the packages, and that's where the agent will actually go to, when VMs are being created, the agent will go to the Blob Store and grab the packages to install the necessary software on the different VMs that are being created. The database, the PostgreSQL database is just to persist the state of the VMs. And then there are different network configurations and things like that that you can see here. Again, we specify here what our cloud provider is. We're using the Google CPI because we're communicating with Google Cloud Platform. So that is a look at the Bosch manifest. Now I want to take a quick look at the concourse manifest. So for the concourse manifest, we see in the releases that we have two things. We have concourse and we have garden run C. Again, for the instance groups, we see something very similar that we did in the Bosch manifest. Every manifest has releases and instance groups and defines the jobs. This instance group is for the web interface that we'll be interacting with once we have concourse set up. So you can see here that we have the external URL that we'll access concourse from, how you will authenticate against it. And then there are other jobs that Bosch will execute in order to stand up the necessary components that concourse will require. Last thing is I wanted to take a look at the cloud config. So again, this is all of the IA specific properties that Bosch will use in order to set up the infrastructure for your particular IA. So initially when you are setting up your workstation to deploy concourse or to deploy your Bosch director, excuse me, you will need to explicitly export your project ID and different compute zone and regions in order for those to be available via your environment. So those are being captured here. And then you define the specific VM types and the different VM extensions that you will need for the VMs that are being created. Within compilation is where you will put your cloud properties, which are again just the properties that are specific to your underlying IAs. So that's a look at the manifests for each of those things. Once you have your concourse manifest set up after you've uploaded your stem cell and your release, it's as simple as the command Bosch deploy. And Bosch will kick off creating all the necessary VMs with the required software for whatever your distributed system may be. In this case, again, it's concourse. So once we have that all up and running, then you are free to use concourse. So I have a concourse pipeline set up over here for you. And I wanted to kick it off because I have a little application that we're gonna run through this pipeline. So I have some code here on the branch of my local machine. It's ahead of my master by one commit. So I'm going to push this code up to my GitHub repo. While that's happening, I wanted to take a, or excuse me. So that is going to kick off our concourse pipeline. And while that is kicking off, I wanted to just take a look at that pipeline. Pardon me, just keep zooming in. Okay, so we're gonna watch that. And in a minute, we should see that it is going to start pulsing yellow. And you notice that there are a number of hands in the room. So it seems like we have a lot of concourse users out there. So we're all familiar with what this is gonna look like once our pipeline has picked up that our repo has changed. So while we're waiting for that, there it goes, kicks off. We're gonna take a look at the pipeline. So this, as you can tell, is a very baby pipeline. There's not a lot going on here. And that is intentional to highlight exactly what the different components that we're interacting with. So as I mentioned, concourse, the concepts that come together to create a concourse pipeline are jobs, resources, and tasks. So if we take a look at my pipeline over here on your left, the first thing that I'm defining is my job. And in this job, I have two, well, three things that are really going on. The first is that I'm going to get my get repo. My first resource that I am using is the GitHub resource. And I am able to parameterize the repo that I'm using, the branch, and then my private key. So I have a trigger here that's set to true. So concourse is going to wait for my GitHub repo to pick up a change. So I just committed a change. And so concourse has that trigger set, so it's going to kick off as soon as there's a change to my source code. Once that change is picked up, we're going to kick off a task. I have a task here called build artifact. It is a very simple task. It's just pointing to a shell script, which basically just takes my, this is a Spring Boot application. So it just takes my Java app and packages it up into an artifact. Once I have that artifact, which is saved, then I can use the CF resource to deploy that application. I have an instance of Cloud Foundry running, so I'm going to deploy that application to Cloud Foundry. So the CF resource is awesome because it handles everything for me. So as a developer, I don't have to interact with Cloud Foundry at all. Concourse is automating and doing all of that for me. So it's handling, targeting my instance of Cloud Foundry, authenticating with my username and my password, targeting my org and my space, and then going through issuing the commands that are necessary in order to deploy my application. So it picks up the manifest that I'm using for that application and pushes that out to Cloud Foundry for me. So if we, again, this is a very small pipeline. Concourse is great because it can be used for things big and small. It can be used for small, little, this is really two very small, three very small tasks, or it can be used on mega scale, where you can deploy to multiple different clouds, you can do fan-in, you can do fan-out, you can do rolling deployments. It's really powerful in terms of the capabilities of concourse. So if you want to see an example of concourse at scale, this is the concourse pipeline for concourse. So I'm sure that you all have come here before ci.concourse.ci. It's really awesome that you can kind of see this live, see it in action, as it's happening. And what's great about concourse is it's very elegant in its UI. It has the yellow pulsing to let you know that a job is in progress. This allows developers to have immediate feedback on the overall state of their applications as they're moving through this pipeline. So if there's something that's big and red, they know that they can drop everything and have to go and fix whatever it is broke that pipeline. So concourse at scale definitely has more going on than the little pipeline that I'm using here. And if we jump into my output here, this is the part of concourse that is actually interfacing with Cloud Foundry and deploying my application for me. So I'm going to grab my URL of my actual application and I'm going to pop it in here. And that's actually all I have for you. So if you have any questions, I will be around and thank you all very much. I appreciate your time. Thank you.

Welcome back to the next lecture on statistical thermodynamics. After having discussed translational contribution and rotational contribution, we now have been discussing vibrational contribution to overall partition function of a molecule. In the previous lecture, we have derived certain relations. The only approximation that we made in the discussion of vibrational partition function is that we treated the vibrator as a harmonic oscillator with an assumption that too many vibrational states are not occupied. And even in that case when we treated that as a uniform ladder of energy levels, we derived an equation where a general expression for vibrational partition function was arrived at. And that equation is q v is equal to 1 over 1 minus exponential beta H c nu bar. And then we further discussed that if the temperature is low, in that case you can use this general result. And if the temperature is high, then this result can be used where vibrational partition function could be expressed in terms of temperature that is T is the temperature experimental temperature or the temperature of interest and theta v is the characteristic rotational temperature. Then we also discussed that what is the significance of this characteristic vibrational temperature. So, what is the significance of this characteristic vibrational temperature is that this expression can be used if the temperature is much higher than the vibrational temperature which we calculate by using this equality that is k theta v is equal to H c nu bar, where nu bar is the vibrational wave number for a particular mode of vibration. So, that means, when we say high temperature, high temperature result means what is the meaning of high temperature here. The meaning of high temperature is that the temperature of interest should be much much larger than the characteristic vibrational temperature or vibrational temperature. Some typical values of the vibrational temperatures are listed in this table. This is the wave number in centimeter inverse and the corresponding vibrational temperature calculated by using this expression. I repeat vibrational temperature calculated by using this expression. Now you see for iodine the vibrational mode iodine is a linear molecule. So, 3 n minus 5 right iodine 2 atoms. So, 3 into 2 6 minus 5 1 there is only one mode of vibration and that is 215 centimeter inverse and once you use this 215 centimeter inverse into this equation you get a vibrational temperature of 309 Kelvin. Now you go to fluorine. Fluorine is also a linear molecule diatomic again one mode of vibration occurring at 892 centimeter inverse. The corresponding characteristic vibrational temperature is 1280. Now you go to H cl again a linear molecule the vibration is at 2990 the corresponding vibrational temperature is 4300. Now look at hydrogen very large vibrational wave number 4400 centimeter inverse and the corresponding characteristic vibrational temperature is 6,330 Kelvin. So, there are many meanings more than one meaning which you can assign to this value of characteristic vibrational temperature. One is that above this temperature when the temperature is much larger than this vibrational temperature you can use this expression to calculate qv. And if the actual temperature is lower than the vibrational temperature you will be using this expression and as we will see soon that if the temperature is low not many upper vibrational levels are significantly populated. Another general trend which you notice in this table look at the molecular weights here the heavier molecule iodine is in iodine is heavy molecule then fluorine is lighter then H cl you have and then you have hydrogen very light molecule. And you can correlate with the vibrational wave numbers that as the molecule is becoming lighter you have the wave number is increasing. And if the wave number is increasing that means, you require more energy for the more vibrational modes to be active. So, therefore, you need more temperature also. So, therefore, a correlation with the heaviness or the molecular weight or the bond length can be correlated over here with wave number as well as characteristic vibrational temperature. So, I hope the meaning of this vibrational temperature is clear and the significance of this vibrational temperature is also clear. Let us apply whatever we have discussed in solving some numerical problem. The wave numbers of three normal modes of H 2 O are given which are 3656.7 centimeter inverse, 1594.8 centimeter inverse and 3755.8 centimeter inverse. Evaluate the vibrational partition function at 1500 K, this is the temperature given. So, there are three normal modes of vibration. Now, water is a non-linear molecule. So, therefore, normal modes of vibration normal vibrational modes can be calculated by 3 N minus 6 non-linear. There are three atoms in water. So, 9 minus 6 is equal to 3. These three normal modes vibrate at the frequency which are given neither normal modes. And we need to now find out the vibrational partition function. We know that the vibrational partition function is given by 1 over 1 minus exponential minus beta h c q bar. I can write this as 1 over 1 minus exponential minus h c nu bar upon k T, beta is 1 over k T. So, therefore, in order to solve for the vibrational contribution, you need the value of h Planck's constant which is given over here 6.623 into 10 is to the power minus 34 joule second. C is the speed of light which is 3 into 10 is to the power 8 meter per second or 3 into 10 is to the power 10 centimeter per second and the Boltzmann constant 1.381 into 10 is to the power minus 23 joules per kelvin. So, note that h is constant, c is constant and k is constant. So, sometimes h c upon k that number itself can be used. So, once you substitute the values of nu bar here with appropriate substitution for h c and k you can calculate the vibrational contribution. Remember that we have also discussed another result high temperature result. Now, whether to use that high temperature result or not that will depend upon the vibrational temperature. One can calculate the vibrational temperature and then decide what is to be done. But if you do not want to get into that, suppose if you decide that ok why should I go into calculation of vibrational temperature you can directly use this general result. However, as I earlier mentioned if you know if you have an idea of characteristic vibrational temperature you can actually guess what will be the value of vibrational partition function. We will take those examples. So, therefore, Q v is equal to 1 over 1 minus exponential minus 6.623 into 10 is to the power minus 34 h into c 3 into 10 is to the power 10. I am keeping it in centimeter per second because I will use nu bar in centimeter inverse right. This one divided by k t k is 1.381 into 10 is to the power minus 23 into 1500. This can be solved. Now, remember that you have 3 values of the vibrational wave numbers 3656.7 centimeter inverse 1594.8 centimeter inverse and 3755.8 centimeter. So, once you have once you know these 3 normal modes of vibration you can calculate partition function due to each normal mode of vibration. Listen to what I am saying carefully due to each normal mode of vibration that value can be substituted here and you can obtain value of partition function for each normal mode of vibration as shown in this table. So, first normal mode is at 3656.7 here. The corresponding value after calculation of Q v comes to 1.031. The second one at 1594.8 gives a Q value of 1.276. The third value which is at 3755.8 the Q value Q v value comes out to 1.028. So, what is interesting in this to note? Look at the table carefully. The highest wave number in this case is number 3 and the corresponding Q 1.028 is the minimum amongst all these 3. The lowest wave number is 1594.8 and the corresponding partition function is 1.276. This is giving an indication and information that if the vibrational normal vibrational mode is at some lower wave number that means energy for that corresponding energy is you know separation is less and therefore, there will be more value of vibrational partition function for that. So, this inverse correlation can be checked in the values reported in this table. Now, after having calculated the vibrational partition function for each normal mode of vibration. Now, we need to calculate overall vibrational partition function and as we have been always discussing earlier that when you talk about overall partition function, it is multiplication of each partition function. Energy is additive, but partition function is multiplicative. So, therefore, overall contribution to vibrational partition function is going to be Q v 1 into Q v 2 into Q v 3. So, 1.031 into 1.276 into 1.028, the overall value is 1.353. Even the overall value you see is just 1.35. It is not very high. Once again, you know when you compare with the rotational contribution, the translational contributions where the numbers were very, very high, the translational contribution number was really high, exceptionally high, but the vibrational contribution you see for water at 1500 K, 1500 K is high enough temperature where water is in the vapor form under normal conditions of pressure. So, let us look at the comment. The vibrations of H 2 O are at such high wave number that even at 1500 K, most of the molecules are in their vibrational ground state. What it means is, if I represent ground state, first excited state, second excited state and then I will just say it increases in this order is like a uniform ladder of energy levels. The value of 1.353, 1.3 is close to 1 and if only ground state is occupied, then Q vibrational if I just say j exponential minus beta E j. In this case, if most of the molecules are in the ground state, then what you have is a value of just 1 ground state only because the upper state contribution is going to be negligible because this energy difference is very, very large. So, I hope it is clear that is why this comment that the vibrations of H 2 O are at such high wave number that even at 1500 Kelvin, most of the molecules are in their vibrational ground state. So, just a quick hint, you know when you come across various numerical problems where you have to evaluate or estimate the vibrational partition function, the overall result in general what you will get is close to 1. That does not mean that you do not solve, you just write a value of 1. We still have to solve and show, but the expected result is not much larger than 1 unless the temperatures are really, really exceptionally high. Even in those cases, the value of overall vibrational partition function is not going to be very, very high. Now, let us look at another application. The question is calculate the value of molecular partition function for N 3 and temperature is 25 degree centigrade. For N 3, the wave numbers are given. First one is 1800 centimeter inverse, second one is 500 centimeter inverse and but the second one is doubly degenerate. The third one is 1200 centimeter inverse. So, again there are 3 N 3. So, there are 1 2 3. Actually, there are 4 values of vibrational weight wave numbers, but 2 of them are same. Therefore, second one is doubly degenerate. For a linear molecule, you expect the value of 4 vibrational mode. So, how to proceed? This is the general expression for q vibrational and as I discussed in the previous example, you can substitute the value of 1 by kt into h into c into nu bar for each and get a value. But let us go a little bit more deeper into the discussion. Theta v, which is vibrational temperature is h c wave number over k. We all know the values of h c and k. Once you substitute this, you get the following results. For first one corresponding to 1800 centimeter inverse, you get a vibrational temperature of 2588.4 Kelvin. The second one corresponding to 500, you expect 719 Kelvin. For third one, which is 1200, you get 1725.6 Kelvin. Again, notice that the one which is largest, 1800, the corresponding vibrational temperature is largest and for the smallest, the corresponding vibrational temperature is smallest. But there is another point to note over here and what is that? Your experimental temperature is 298 Kelvin and the lowest vibrational temperature is 719 Kelvin. You can focus on the lowest because if the experimental temperature is lower than the lowest vibrational temperature, in that case, you cannot use the high temperature approximation. You have to go exclusively by this formula. Once again, even for the lowest wave number, first you focus on the lowest wave number. Lowest wave number will give you some vibrational temperature and if that vibrational temperature is higher than the experimental temperature, that means the high temperature approximation cannot be used because the other vibrational temperatures are anyway higher than 719 Kelvin. So, therefore, you have to exclusively use this result and once you use this result for each value, then let us see what is to be done next. The first one which was the highest, let us go back and look at the first one is the highest wave number, 1800 centimeter inverse and for that highest wave number, the corresponding vibrational partition function is 1.00019. That is what I was just telling you a few minutes ago, that if the vibrational wave number is high or if the characteristic vibrational temperature is higher than the experimental temperature, you do not expect the upper vibrational level to be populated. In that case, the Q v value is going to be just 1, approximately 1 and that is what you observe over here. Now, the smallest one, even the smallest one, let us look at what was the number, the smallest one was 500 centimeter inverse, but still the vibrational temperature is higher than the experimental temperature. In that case, still the value is coming out to 1.098, this is also not very different from 1. Again, you can assign this reason to the comparison of vibrational temperature with the actual experimental temperature and degeneracy for this is 2. Now, the third one which was the second highest, in that case the value is again coming to close to 1. Now, we have all the four values, for one normal mode of vibration and for the second which is doubly degenerate for that normal mode of vibration and for the third one which is non-degenerate that is the value in each case is close to 1. But in any case, the overall partition function is going to be q v is going to be q v of 1 into second one is doubly degenerate. So, I can write q v of 2, this will appear twice, so square into q v of third. So, that is what I was saying this will appear twice the second one because the degeneracy is 2. So, once you multiply all this you get a value of 1.210. You have to be little careful when you are dealing with the vibrational partition function because as I discussed in the previous lecture also and I am discussing now also that each normal mode of vibration will give rise to its own partition. And once you know the value of partition function for each normal mode of vibration, then you can use this multiplicative rule to get an overall value of vibrational contribution to partition function. Once again I have repeated it many times that since the temperature experimental temperature 298 Kelvin in this case is lower than the vibrational temperature for each normal mode. Therefore, you do not expect the overall number to be much different than 1 in this case it is 1.2. So, I hope that you should be able to now evaluate, calculate the values of vibrational contribution to partition function. As a general rule you expect translational contribution to be highest followed by rotational and now we have discussed the vibrational this is coming next lower right. So, translational, rotational, vibrational we have discussed and in mind we have that which one will be highest, which one will be lowest. So, that is you know in terms of the energy orders and as we discussed here also that vibrational contribution in general you do not expect to be much different than 1 unless the temperatures are extremely high. The next partition function that we should discuss now is the electronic partition function and we will see that in terms of this order of the values where it falls, but that we will discuss in the next lecture. Thank you very much.

Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products by Author Nir Eyal
Product Management event in New York about how to build habit-forming products. 📆 Check out upcoming events: https://prdct.school/events ℹ Find out more about us: https://prdct.school/44f6WNW Why do some products capture widespread attention while others flop? What makes us engage with certain products out of sheer habit? Is there a pattern underlying how technologies hook us? In this workshop, the author of the book "Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products" talked about a 4 step process called the Hooked Model. Nir Eyal shared with us a framework that gives entrepreneurs and product designers a new way for thinking of the necessary components in influencing user behavior. He talked about the tactics that companies like Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter use to bring users back again and again without depending on costly advertising or aggressive messaging. He gave practical insights that create user habits that stick and actionable steps for building products that people love. Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business. He founded two tech companies since 2003 and has taught at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design Stanford. Nir is also an advisor to several Bay area start-ups, venture capitalists, and incubators. In addition to blogging at NirandFar.com, Nir is a contributing writer for Forbes, TechCrunch, and Psychology Today. Hooked is based on Eyal's years of research, consulting, and practical experience. He wrote the book he wished had been available to him as a start-up founder - not abstract theory, but a how-to guide for building better products. Hooked is written for product managers, designers, marketers, start-up founders, and anyone who seeks to understand how products influence our behavior.

much. It is great to be here. Let me tell you why it's so great to be here. It's great to be here because I'm a New Yorker too now. I moved here to April. Yeah! For Silicon Valley, I left there. So now I'm here. It's great to be here. I love the Silicon, I love the Silicon Alley vibe. It's fantastic. I've been super impressed with the start of folks here and I'm really excited to teach you all about habit-forming products and how we make our products more and more engaging. Just out of curiosity, how many of you have by chance read my book or seen my talk on YouTube already? Okay, wow. Thank you. Anyway, breathable. Fantastic. So here's what I think I'm going to do. I'm going to give, for the sake of folks who maybe don't know the material, I want to give just like a very quick overview just so we're kind of all on the same page. I'm not going to have time to go very deep today. That's what the book's for. There's a longer talk online that you can see on YouTube as well. What I really want to spend the most time doing tonight is answering questions, right? That's where I get the most benefit. I get to hear what's on your minds and I want to talk about what you're struggling with, what engagement challenges are on your mind so we can kind of get the kind of thing that you can't just get in the book. Okay, does that sound good? All right, so real quick, what are we talking about? We talk about building habit-forming products. What's the definition of a habit? It's a behavior done with little or no conscious thought. Now, why do I teach this stuff? Why do I care so much about building habit-forming products? Because, you know, I'm not teaching this to Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and the gaming companies. They already know all this stuff. The reason I teach what I teach, the reason I wrote this book, is because I saw how many products out there are building solutions for people who genuinely want to change their behavior. They want to do something in their life. But because of poor product design, the product doesn't facilitate that behavior, right? The real problem out there that I see is not that a few companies, you know, a lot of companies see that I teach how to build habit-forming products and that people equate that with addiction, right? Which is including not about addiction. May you be so lucky that people would get addicted to your products because the vast majority of you, right, are working on products and solutions where your product, your problem is not that a few people use it too much. Your problem is that nobody gives a shit, right? Nobody uses it enough. And so what I really wanted to do is to figure out how to bring these techniques out of Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and WhatsApp and Slack. How do we learn from these companies that are so successful at making these habit-forming products so that we can use the same psychology, the same techniques, the same behavioral patterns in our products and services to help people save money, to help people connect with friends and family, to help people exercise more, live better lives. We use the exact same psychology that these big companies use in our products as well, okay? So we can do that by designing the kind of products and services that become integral to people's lives by building these habit-forming products. What I found in my research is that all of these habit-forming products have what's called a hook embedded into the user experience. So any of these companies that I just mentioned, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, Slack, Enterprise or Consumer Web, if it's the kind of product that people use time and again with little or no conscious thought out of habit, you'll find these hooks, okay? So I'm going to walk you through the four steps of the hook model. Every hook starts with a trigger, to an action, to a reward and finally an investment. And it's through successive cycles through these hooks that our preferences, our shape, that our tastes are formed and that these habits take hold, okay? Let's start with triggers. There are two types of triggers. The first type of trigger is called an external trigger. An external trigger is something that tells the user what to do next with some piece of information inside the trigger itself. Click here, buy now, play this, a friend telling you through word of mouth about this great app. They just found out about all examples of external triggers. Now, we in the product design community, we know all about external triggers. These are the notifications, the pings, the dings. We design these every day. We use them as consumers every day. But what product people don't think about enough and what turns out to be absolutely critical to forming long-term habits is creating an association with an internal trigger. Internal triggers are things that tell us what to do next. But where the information for what to do is not in the trigger, as is the case of the external trigger, but instead the information for what to do is stored as a memory or an association inside the user's head. And what we do when we're in a particular place, a certain situation, partaking in a routine around certain people and most frequently when you experience certain emotions, dictate what we do next. Dictate the technologies that we turn to with little or no conscious thought. Now, the most frequently occurring internal triggers are these emotions, but not just any emotions. They're negative emotions. And some of the evidence that shows us this is the case came to us from a study that found that people suffering from depression, check email more. I just saw two or three people put away their phones. What's going on there? Why do people suffering from depression check email more? Well, what's going on here is that people suffering from depression experience what psychologists call negative valence states. They feel down more frequently than the rest of the population. And what are they doing to change their mood, to get out of that negative valence state? They're going online. They're checking their devices. They're looking at email more often than the rest of the population. But if we're honest with ourselves, we all do this. You don't have to be clinically depressed to use products to change your mood. In fact, let me tell you something. Every thing that we use, everything that we buy, every product or service has one function. That function is to modulate our mood, to make us feel something different. And so what you have to do if you're building a habit-forming product is that you have to be able to identify what is your internal trigger? What's that moment in time? What's that consumer pain point that when the user feels that pain point, you're the solution. You're what they look for, for relief. So to give you some examples with products you use, if you're feeling lonely. What app or website do people check if they're feeling lonely? Facebook. Somebody said Tinder. Also true. Different kind of lonely, but also lonely. What about when feeling unsure about something? If we're uncertain, what do we do before we search our brain for the answer? What are we doing? We're googling it. What about when feeling bored? Where do we go? Twitter. We go to Twitter. We go to YouTube. We check Reddit. We check stock prices, sports scores. We see what's happening in the news. All of these products and services fundamentally have an internal trigger. And before we understand why we're using these products and services, we're already checking and scrolling and using these products. So for your product and service to build a healthy habit in your customer's life, you have to be able to articulate what's that itch? What's that pain point? What's that internal trigger? And does it occur with sufficient frequency? Frequency is super important. The number one reason that a product will not become a habit is that it does not occur with sufficient frequency. And that frequency has to occur within a week's time or less. A week's time or less. It's almost impossible to change a consumer habit if that behavior does not occur within a week's time or less. We can talk about during the Q&A, what do you do? And many people say, well, the product that I'm building is not the kind of thing you would use once a week. What do you do? We can talk about it. There's a few strategies for that. But if you think about the habit-forming potential of the companies I mentioned earlier, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, Slack, how often do we use these products? More than every day. They're intra-daily habits. The average person looks at their smartphone home screen 150 times a day. So very, very high habit-forming potential when we use these products so frequently. The next step of the hook is the action phase. The action phase is defined as the simplest behavior done in anticipation of a reward. The simplest thing the user can do to get relief from that discomfort. And there's a formula to help us predict the likelihood of these singular behaviors. It comes to us from a researcher at Stanford by the name of BJ Fogg. Fogg tells us that for any behavior B, we need three things. By the way, online, offline doesn't matter. Any human behavior, we need three things. We need sufficient motivation, sufficient ability. Ability is how easy or difficult something is to do. And the T stands for trigger. We just talked all about those triggers. Let's talk about motivation and ability. We can plot these three things of motivation, ability, and triggers on this graph and in a product development context. If you build this amazing website, this unbelievable app, this wonderful thing for your consumers, but damn it, they're not doing the thing you want them to do. They're not clicking, they're not doing the behavior you anticipated. There's only three reasons. Either they lack motivation on the Y axis, high motivation, low motivation, or they lack ability if something is easy to do, it's over here. If something is hard to do, it's over here. And if we have sufficient motivation and sufficient abilities, we have enough motivation, something is easy enough to do, we cross this red threshold, and if the trigger is present, the behavior will occur. Every single time. Online, offline doesn't matter. And let me make this concrete. Think of the last time that a phone rang in your life, phone rings, and you did not pick up the phone. Tell me why you didn't pick up the phone. Give me a reason. It was a private number. It was a private number, right? So you thought maybe it was a telemarketer, somebody you didn't want to talk to. You heard the phone ring, trigger was present. The phone was right there next to you, high ability, super easy to pick it up, but you lacked motivation. You didn't want to talk to that person right now. Probably a telemarketer, somebody you didn't want to talk to. You lacked motivation, you never crossed the red threshold. What's another reason? There are two more potential reasons why you didn't pick up that phone. So you're sitting in an event like this. You're sitting in an event like this, perfect. You're sitting in my talk. You really want to pick up that call, right? You see who it is, it's your significant other. It's somebody you really want to talk to. High motivation, you hear it ring, the trigger is present. You lack ability, it's hard to do. You don't want to be that one person that picks up the phone and has to go through the aisles and an IQ. One second, I got to take this call. It's hard to do. You lack the ability. It's too hard to do that behavior. What's one more reason? Somebody said a second ago, why you don't pick up the phone. It was on silent. It was on silent, exactly. I'm not the only person this happens to, right? Where I really wanted to pick up that call. The phone was right there next to me, but I never heard it ring, okay? Happens all the time. If the customer or the user is not doing the design behavior, it's only because they lack motivation, they lack ability or the trigger is not present. Nine times out of 10, it's not motivation. Everybody thinks it's motivation. We have to tell the customer why our product is so great. We have to show them a video and testimonials and convince them, make them more motivated. Nine times out of 10, the customer is plenty motivated. What we have to do is increase ability, make it easier to do that intended behavior and have that trigger that tells them what to do next. And there's lots of examples in the book about how different companies did this Twitter and Facebook, how they actually put this principle to use as well. Let's move on to the next step of the hook, the reward phase. The reward phase is where the user's itch is scratched, where they get what they came for. Now, there's a lot of interesting neuroscience about the reward phase. Part of this neuroscience comes to us from two Canadian researchers by the name of Olden Milner. And Olden Milner did these studies back in the 1940s where they implanted electrodes inside the brains of lab animals. And they allowed these lab animals to press on a little lever. And every time they pressed on this lever, they would get electrical jolt to a very special part of the brain called the nucleus accumbens. What they found was that every time that they allow these pigeons to simulate this part of the brain by pressing on this lever, they wanted nothing else. They would press on these lever hundreds and hundreds of times, they would forego food and water just to stimulate this part of the brain. In later experiments done on people, they observed similar results. That when people were given these little buttons to press on that sent an electrical jolt to their nucleus accumbens, they did so hundreds and hundreds of times. Some of the people in the studies had to have a machine forcibly removed from them to get them to stop stimulating their nucleus accumbens. Of course, you don't need electrodes in people's brains to stimulate the nucleus accumbens. Your nucleus accumbens is stimulated every single day with things like junk food, sex, certain chemicals, and of course our technologies. All of these things activate the very same part of the brain. But what we now know that Olds and Milner never did is that the nucleus accumbens becomes most active in anticipation of a reward. But when we get the thing we want, the thing that we think is gonna make us finally feel good and make us happy, that's when the nucleus accumbens becomes less activated. So the way the brain gets us to act is not by stimulating pleasure. People think that the brain wants pleasure, pleasure, pleasure, that's not exactly true. It's not the shot of dopamine, that's not actually how the brain works. The brain creates this desire, this wanting, this craving that is actually experienced as pain, and that craving reflex is what drives us to action. And there's a way, not so secret way, to create that desire, to supercharge that wanting reflex. In fact, I can tell you right now how to manufacture desire. Does anybody wanna know how to manufacture desire? Yeah. I'm doing it to you right now. So when I took that long pause just now, and I stopped talking, and I did something a little bit different, some of you perked up. Why did this dude stop talking? What's going on? What's gonna happen next? And it turns out that a bit of variability, a bit of the unknown is fascinating. Variability causes us to engage, it causes us to focus, and it is highly habit forming. This comes out of the classic work of B.F. Skinner. Many of you remember Skinner from your Psych 101 class, right? Skinner took these pigeons, he put them in a box, he gave them a little disc to peck at. And every time the pigeon pecked at the disc, they would receive a little food pellet, a little reward. So very quickly Skinner could train these pigeons to peck at the disc whenever they were hungry. But then Skinner started to run out of these little food pellets. So he started giving them every once in a while. So sometimes the pigeon would peck at the disc and they would get a reward. But the next time they pecked at the disc, they wouldn't get anything. And what Skinner observed was that the rate of response, the number of times that these pigeons pecked at the disc increased when the reward was given on a variable schedule of reinforcement. We see these variable schedule of reinforcement in all sorts of things that we find engaging, captivating, the things that hold on to our attention and won't let go. It's what makes sports interesting. Think about it, if you boil down spectator sports, we're talking about a ball or a puck bouncing around. It's all about where is that ball or puck gonna end up? It's the variability around that. Think about romance, what makes romance romantic? It's the uncertainty of what the other person might do. Do they like me? Do they not like me? What are we gonna do? That's the excitement. But when you've been married to somebody, as I have for over 17 years, you look for other things other than that excitement that you had, those butterflies in your stomach that come from the variability of romance. Gambling, what makes gambling so habit-forming and addictive to some people, is that there's uncertainty of what you might win when you play these games of chance. They're just like the Skinner box. And of course, online, we see the same exact psychology at work. When you think about LinkedIn or Twitter or Facebook or Instagram, you ever notice this feed, right? Why is the feed so ubiquitous today? The feed is everywhere. Why do so many products use this feed mechanic? Well, when I open up one of these apps, I see the first thing, it's not that interesting. Maybe the second post, not that interesting. But maybe the third or fourth is interesting. And what do I have to do to see more of those posts? What do I have to do? Scroll them. And that scrolling and scrolling use the same psychology as pulling on a slow machine, okay? All variable rewards. There are three types of variable rewards. Rewards of the tribe, which is all about social rewards. There's rewards of the hunt, which is all about the search for material possessions or information. And then there's rewards of the self, which is all about the search for mastery, consistency, competency, and control. Now, not every product has to have all three. Sorry, here's the three types. Not every product has to have all three. In fact, very rarely do you see a product that has all three. But of course, some of the most habit-forming products have all three. When you think about email, right? The mother of habit-forming technology. It has all three, tribe, hunt, and self. Tribe is the fact that we communicate with other people that we know, right? There's uncertainty around the hunt. When you get an email, what's in the email? Is it good news? Is it bad news? Is it promotion? Am I being fired? What's going on? What's going on around that information? And then there's the self. There's this need to finish, master, control your inbox, finish the tasks in your inbox. Those are all about mastery, control, and competency. Rewards of the self. And finally, the last step of the hook is the investment phase. This is probably the most overlooked of the four steps of the hook. The investment phase where the user puts something into the product. Oops, sorry. Into the product. In anticipation of a reward. This is where the user invests in the product for some kind of future benefit. Not about immediate gratification. That's what the action phase is for. So what do investments look like? Investments can take a few forms. They can be in the form of content. The more content I upload to my Google Drive or my Dropbox account, for example, the more valuable it becomes with use. The more information, the more data I give to a company, the more valuable it becomes. So, for example, if you were to log into my Pinterest account or my Facebook account, it actually wouldn't be all that interesting for you because it's been built, it's been propagated based on the data I gave those companies. Reputation is another form of investment. On Airbnb or eBay, for example, my reputation on those sites dictates what I can charge for my goods and services. So what the investment phase has to do is two things. It loads the next trigger, it loads the next trigger, brings the user back through the hook once again. So, for example, when I send someone a message on WhatsApp, when I send that message, there's no immediate gratification. Nothing happens right away. But when I invest in the platform by sending that message, I'm loading the next trigger because I'm likely to get a reply. And that reply comes coupled with an external trigger that prompts me through the hook once again. The second thing that the investment has to do is to improve the product with use. And this is what's so amazing about the investment phase. This is what's so amazing about the age we live in today where technology gets better and better. If you think about things made out of atoms, right? These chairs, your clothing, everything in the physical world depreciates with wear and tear. The more you use these products, the less they are worth, right? That's how things in the physical world work. But habit-forming products do the opposite. Habit-forming products have to appreciate with use. They get better and better because of this idea of stored value that the investment brings. That's what makes these products so special. They get better and better and better the more we use them. So if you're not asking for customer investment, that's a big wasted opportunity. The metaphor I like to give here is imagine you go out to lunch with a friend of yours and you sit down and you have a nice conversation and you tell each other what's going on in your life and they tell you about how work is going and about how family life is going and you tell them the same and you disclose and it feels good to be a little vulnerable with them. You have a great conversation. You give them a hug, you say goodbye and then you meet up again a few weeks later. And when you sit down with them, you realize they don't remember a thing you told them, okay? How would you feel if you sat down with a friend after you bared your soul and now they don't remember a thing you told them? How would you feel about that friend? Either they have amnesia or they're not gonna be your friend very long, right? We do this to our customers all the time, right? They tell us about their preferences but we do nothing with them. That's what the investment phase is all about, is making the product better and better with use, to tailor the product to the customer's needs with use and that's what all these world changing, habit-forming companies do. So the goal of my work, what I really want to achieve by propagating this information about habit-forming products is not that the problem isn't that a few companies have built the kind of products that suck us in. The real problem out there is that far too many technologies just plain old suck, right? And when we think about how hard it is to use the average website for the average business let alone government services or local business, I mean they're so far behind in terms of the kind of usability that people expect to engage with these businesses. There is so much opportunity to make these products things that people want to use to get the jobs that they need done. And to show you I put my money where my mouth is I wanted to show you one quick example of a company that I invest in. I invest in a lot of companies in this space that use habit-forming product design. This is a product called Seven Cups. A few years ago I got a call from a gentleman by the name of Glenn Moriarty. Glenn called me up. I do these office hours every week. On Thursdays you can book time as well. I do these 15 minute increments. You can book time right on my website. He calls me up a few years ago and he says, Nia, I read your book and I built a hook for a potential app. Can I share my hope with you? Of course, let's hear it. So Glenn tells me that he's a therapist in Virginia Beach and he knows that there are far too many people in his community that don't get the kind of therapy they need, right? They don't come in and talk to a psychotherapist. His clientele include parents who have children with a disability. It includes veterans suffering from PTSD. It includes just people who need to talk or suffering who just need someone to vent to. And he knows that there's just too much friction to get therapy, right? If you think about how hard it is to get therapy, it's expensive, it's time consuming. You gotta find the right doctor. There's social stigma around it. So here's Glenn's hook. The internal trigger is loneliness. It's seeking connection. It's when you're feeling down. The action is to just open the app, doesn't cost a dime. You open the app and you're instantly connected to another person ready to listen. The variable reward is rewards of the tribe, right? It's this interaction with another human being. There's variability around what they're gonna say and how they're gonna help you and what's gonna happen next. And the investment, and here's where it gets really good. The more you use a product like Seven Cups, the more you're offered the opportunity to be trained as a listener yourself. And what this product has found, third party studies have found that people who use Seven Cups get better. They get dramatically better. In fact, this free app is as effective as traditional psychotherapy. Talk about the amazing power of using habits for good. So what I encourage you to do is to use some of these techniques in your product design to help people live better lives by using these habits for good. Thank you so much. I apologize for the super quick fly-through, but given that a lot of you have seen parts of this or read the book before, I wanted to leave plenty of time for Q&A. In the meantime, I have these hook stickers to remind you of the four steps of the hook for your laptop, so I'm gonna pass these around as well. Okay, questions, please. So you're talking before about anticipation and I totally believe it, you know, it's all about the chase, not the catch. But then I was thinking about how in like web designs, we, it's like an imperative to make sure that the load times are as quick as possible. And yet, isn't that kind of counter to what you're saying? Well, the, not necessarily, right? It's the, there has to be a connection between the internal trigger and the reward, okay? So we can't just use willy-nilly whatever we think the user wants. The reward has to be rewarding. How do we know if the reward is rewarding? If it scratches the user's itch, right? Fundamentally, it has to give the user what they came for. So if a wait time makes the experience better, for example, in a game, there are settings where you actually don't want a game to progress too quickly. You want to build up anticipation for a second, right? Movies do this all the time, right? The cliffhangers, right? There's, you want to have some distance between when the payoff comes, when the reward is given. So it depends on what type of experience. If I am googling something, I want those results as quickly as possible because I want to scratch the itch of uncertainty. So it all starts with what is the internal trigger? That's the first and most important question you've got to answer. And then all your product decisions flow from what itch you're scratching. Please. Can you see examples of the enterprise software or is it necessary? Yeah, absolutely. In fact, sorry, give me one second here. All right, I want to give you a link so that you can get this exact same presentation for enterprise. So if you go to this URL, opinion2.us, one, I'd love to hear what you thought of the presentation. I'm constantly tweaking it based on your feedback. So please give me what you, tell me what you thought. It's just a very, very short five question survey. As soon as you click submit, you'll be given a link to my slide share page. And on that slide share page, not only will you see the slides you just saw, there's a bunch of other presentations. One of those presentations is called Hooked for the Enterprise. And it's basically, it's a little bit more in-depth presentation with more examples only from enterprise examples. Now, the line of demarcation, the difference is not web versus, consumer web versus enterprise. That's not the difference. The difference between when you want to use this stuff and when you don't want to use this stuff is frequency. Frequency. So if you're building the kind of product that doesn't require a habit, there's lots of products out there that don't need a habit. If you're selling some kind of enterprise software that is installed and then lives on some server farm somewhere and nobody uses unless something breaks, you don't need a habit. That's a one-time sale. That's not a repeat behavior. But if you're building the kind of enterprise software that requires people to engage frequently, at least once a week, Salesforce, GitHub, Stack Overflow, I mean the list goes on and on. So all of this consumerization of IT is all about people on the front lines using software, Slack's probably the best example of all. People started using it on the front lines and then it percolated up the organization. If that's the kind of product you're building, you have to develop a habit or people won't remember to use your product. So same exact rules apply. It's all about frequent or not frequent. I find that in my day-to-day, I come across a lot of other people who think the problem is motivation or not a product that is a behavior change product. And I'm curious what kind of techniques you use to convince other people on your team that maybe you should focus more on the ability or convince them that motivation is a problem. So this is a great book. You may want to give them as a good first step. You know what I'm gonna recommend. So that chapter helps a lot. I'm not trying to do my own horn. In fact, that's not my research, it's BJ Fogg's research. But I think it's very powerful. I think when you see these examples of how the goal of technology in a nutshell, what is technological innovation for? What does it do? All technological innovation, I don't care if it's the cotton gin or the iPhone, shortens the distance between the need and the reward. That's all technology does for the history of mankind. And what we find is that the easier something is to do, the more people do it every time, right? For a given level of motivation, the easier the behavior, the more likely people are to do it. And so that's what's happening today. That's why we use these devices so much.

So, an einem wunderschönen guten Morgen, ich begrüße alle ganz herzlich zu den täglich neuen Handelsideen, heute gemeinsam hier mit Tickmill. Ich stelle an der Stelle jetzt mal ganz kurz die Frage, ob man mich sehen kann oder ob der Bildschirm schwarz ist. Ich gehe davon aus, man wird mich sehen können in der Tat, also zumindest über GoToWebinar. Aber ich kann an der Stelle noch nicht garantieren, dass man mich auch über den Facebook Stream sieht, weil, wie gesagt, interessanterweise sieht man hier aktuell bei mir jedenfalls im Hintergrund nichts. Ein Moment, ich muss das mal ganz kurz abklären, weil anderenfalls wäre das doch jetzt ziemlich suboptimal, da müssen wir das vielleicht noch mal starten. Einen Moment, ja, das ist keine Überraschung, hier schreibt mir gerade der Werner, beziehungsweise auch der Andreas, was das Problem ist, das sind zwei Streams, die wir nutzen. Also wir nutzen einmal den GoToWebinar Stream, über den ist alles fine, das sieht auch hier alles bestens aus, aber wir sind jetzt, jetzt ist es perfekt. Jetzt kann man mich auch auf jeden Fall hier bei dem Facebook Stream sehen, also war das offensichtlich nur eine kurze Unterbrechung am Ende. Das war nur ein lokales Problem. Ich habe das nämlich im Hintergrund auch laufen, damit ich sehen kann, dass die anderen sehen, damit das auch alles ankommt, so dass wir miteinander, voneinander profitieren können, so sage ich mal. Ja, also kommen wir nochmal zu Beginn. Herzlich willkommen zu den täglichen Handelsidänen, gemeinsam mit Tick-Mill. Heute ist die letzte Präsenz meinerseits ab Montag, ist dann wieder der Mike Seidel hier an dieser Stelle. Ich habe ja jetzt die letzten drei Wochen für ihn dieses Format übernommen. Er ist in seinem wohlverdienten Urlaub, ist aber ab Montag dann wieder für euch da und wird euch mit seinen Handelsidänen entsprechend frisch versorgen. Ich habe mir für den heutigen Tag überlegt, dass es ganz sinnvoll sein dürfte. Ein kurzen Blick vielleicht auch für die kommende Woche zu geben, was dort in der kommenden Handelswoche dann von Relevanz ist, denn der heutige Tag ist zumindest bis 16 Uhr wahrscheinlich nicht so spektakulär, kann dann aber sehr spektakulär werden. Auch das werden wir natürlich kurz abdecken, Stichwort Jackson Hole, die Rede von dem FAT Chairman J. Powell dort. Die Erwartungshaltung an ihn sind zumindest jetzt etwas gewachsen, möchte ich mal formulieren, also die Dovishness der einzelnen FAT-Mit-Leader und auch die Erwartungshaltung hier im FAT Watch Tool zum Beispiel, die ist schon relativ hoch angesetzt und ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob Powell das wirklich liefern kann, auch von dem Hintergrund, dass er so ein bisschen im Dilemma steckt, denn er muss natürlich auch berücksichtigen, dass die US-Wirtschaft eigentlich im internationalen Vergleich verhältnismäßig solide läuft und er möchte sich sicherlich die Hintertür offen halten, geldpolitisch auch außergewöhnliches Stimuli erst dann zu thematisieren und wie sagt man so schön im Trader-Jargon, ein Biggest Bank für seinen Back zu bekommen, wenn dann wirklich sich auch im US-Amerikanischen Bereich konjunkturell das eben entsprechend niederschlägt und dann eben entsprechend die Fallhöhe und die Möglichkeiten, geldpolitischer Natur der FAT wesentlich höher anzusetzen sind. Bevor wir aber damit beginnen wollen, zunächst der Blick auf den Risiko hinweist, wie gewohnt, der Handeln mit Devisen und CFDs auf Margin kann zu Verlusten führen und es daher nicht für jeden Anleger geeignet. Tickmill bietet keine Finanzberatung an und auch die folgenden Inhalte stellen keine Aufforderungen zum Handeln da, sie dienen ausschließlich der Veranschaulichung und der Weiterbildung, sprich es ist keine Anlage, Beratung und reine informative Bewegründe, die wir hier haben und das waren die ersten drei Sätze, das Risiko hinweist, ist den kompletten, findet ihr auf der Webseite von Tickmill. Wir blicken wie auch schon in den vergangenen Tagen hier einmal auf den Wirtschaftsdatenkalender. Wir sehen in dem Zusammenhang, wir sind verhältnismäßig dünn beziehungsweise verhältnismäßig dünn in Anführungsstrichen, das was uns wie gesagt heute bewegt sind die diversen Äußerungen, diverser Fettoffizieller und es sind die Fettoffiziellen, die dort im Mittelpunkt stehen. Es werden, ich weiß gar nicht ob Mario Draghi überhaupt anwesend ist, ehrlich gesagt. Muss ich ganz ehrlich sagen vor dem Hintergrund nämlich, dass Mario Draghi jetzt in den Endzügen seiner Präsidentschaft bei der EZB steht und auch kein offizieller Nachfolger dort bekanntgegeben wurde. Ich müsste wirklich schauen, ob Mario Draghi dort überhaupt anwesend ist. Warum ist das erwähnenswert? Nehmen wir als Beispiel die Bank of Japan. Auch die hat hier jemanden anderen als den, ich nenne jetzt mal Chief Governor geschickt, also den Head, also Haruhiko Koroda ist schon wie im letzten Jahr auch dieses Jahr nicht anwesend. Es ist ein Vertreter für ihn da. Ich hatte gestern schon gesagt, ich hatte jetzt zwischenzeitlichen Namen mal nochmal gelesen. Ich sage es nochmal, Wakathambe heißt das glaube ich. Bin mir aber nicht sicher, es könnte durchaus sein, dass da noch irgendwo ein K oder ein T sich irgendwie versteckt hat in dem, was ich gestern gelesen habe. Auf jeden Fall wird er vertreten und demnach ist nicht davon auszugehen, dass es hier seitens der japanischen Notenbank zu signifikanten Ankündigungen kommt, die geldpolitisch in irgendeiner Form relevant sind, die den Markt bewegen oder so was. Genau das gleiche gilt dann eben auch in Bezug auf die EZB. Wie gesagt, ich habe an keiner Stelle gelesen, dass Mario Draghi hier irgendwie sich äußert. Das ist der Ausschnitt vom Wirtschaftsdarenkalender auf der Webseite von Tickmill und der ist sehr detailiert. Also das bedeutet etwas anderes, was Sie hier sehen können. Es ist hier wird nicht nur Fat Chairman Paul herausgestellt, sondern es werden eben auch die Reden, die dann davor noch in Jackson Hole stattfinden, von James Bullard zum Beispiel herausgestellt, von Kaplan, von Mester. Und diese Rede von Draghi würde sie stattfinden oder würde sie von der EZB offiziellen stattfinden. Da dürfte man davon ausgehen, dass die dort aufgelistet wird. Also demnach ist nicht davon auszugehen, dass es dort eine Ankündige gibt, Ergo, lange Rede, kurzer Sinn. Das, was heute den Markt bewegen wird, sind definitiv die Fett-Aussagen und ganz besonders eben jene von Fat Chairman Paul dann um 16 Uhr unserer Zeit. Hier steht es 15 Uhr, das hat damit zu tun, dass das in Londoner Zeit angegeben ist. Und ja, also 16 Uhr, wie gesagt, da haben wir dann entsprechend eben potenziell Volatilität. Woher rührt diese Volatilität? Dazu werfen wir dann mal gleich einen Blick hier, zack, auf, da kommen wir gleich drauf zu sprechen, auf das Fat Watch Tool, so, wo wir nämlich, und das ist das Interessante dabei, wo wir nämlich mehr und mehr, zwar eine Wahrscheinlichkeit sehen, das ist auf der Zinssitzung dort am 18. September, also am Mittwoch vier Wochen dann, dass es dort seitens der Fett eine erneute Zinssenkung um 25 Basispunkte gibt. Was ist eben auch interessant, das ist dennoch trotz dieser leichten Dovishness, die man, die man mitnehmen kann, diverser Fettoffizieller, die sich jetzt geäußert haben. Und auch der Markt, der hier erwartungsmäßig doch sehr aggressiv schon agiert. Also das ist September, wenn wir jetzt auf den Dezember schauen, wir haben uns dieses Fat Watch Tool diverse Male angeschaut, das hat sich nicht dramatisch verändert. Man geht seitens der Marktteilnehmer sogar mittlerweile, das ist interessant, man geht sogar mit einer Wahrscheinlichkeit von 1,3% mittlerweile davon aus, dass das Zinsniveau bis jetzt da gar nicht mehr verändert wird. Also, dass es keine Zinssenkung gibt. Das ist allerdings sehr kühn. Ich glaube, das ist sehr optimistisch. Das ist wahrscheinlich eher so, ja, wie soll man sagen, es ist einer aus 100. Wenn du 100 Analysten befragst und ein Einziger sagt, ich gehe von dem Sparzensparen an der Stelle aus und nennen wir ihn einfach mal, dann kannst du mit 100% ihrer Sicherheit davon ausgehen, dass wenn der richtig liegen sollte und es gibt tatsächlich bis zum Jahresende keine Zinssenkung, dass der auf jeden Fall in den Garzetten ganz vorne auf der Seite stehen wird. Der wird ein Buch schreiben dürfen und der wird in diverse Talkshows eingeladen, wie er was er denn dort genutzt hat, an Vorhersag oder welche Modelle er genutzt hat, um seine Vorhersage zu treffen und dergleichen. Es wird einfach nur geraten gewesen sein. Man denkt sich, ja, so PimalDom ungefähr, wenn das rauskommt, wie gesagt, dann habe ich da ein großes Payoff und es kommt nicht so, dann wird sich da auch keiner dran ändern. Das heißt also, die Unterseite ist limitiert und die heraus, dass das Payoff, wie gesagt, was ich erwarten könnte, das wäre riesig groß, das ist ähnlich wie ein guter Trade eigentlich, ein sehr, sehr attraktives Chancenrisikoverhältnis. Das berechnet sich so natürlich nicht. Es werden hier keine Analystenbefragungen, das gilt natürlich auch in dem Zusammenhang, das kurz noch einzufangen, das nur um das im übertragenen Sinne zu schildern. Aber in ähnlicher Form kann man sich auch vorstellen, werden dort dann entsprechende Traits aufgesetzt. Also ich vermute es um das, was wir hier sehen, das ist ja von der Chicago Mercantile Exchange dort werden eben nicht nur Futures getradet, auf dem Bondmarkt zum Beispiel, auf den S&P und sonst dergleichen, also das Pondort, das US- amerikanische Pondort zu unserer Eurex, sondern es ist eben auch so, dass wir dort Option zum Beispiel gehandelt haben. Und diese Zahlen, die wir hier sehen, die werden extrahiert aus diesen Kennzahlen der Option, also basierend auf diesen, die gepreist werden, also sprich, Zeitwertverfall zum Beispiel Teta oder eben beispielsweise auch dann Zins, das ist dann die Komponente Ro, die eine Rolle spielt. Und von diesen werden die eben herausgerechnet und ergeben dann diese Darstellung eben bezüglich der Erwartung des Marktes der Zinsniveaus in der Zukunft. Und demnach kann man hier in der weiterer, weiterer sich eben auch Wette sehen, eine Trade Sehnement Effekt, der sich dort dann irgendwie widerspiegelt, zwar versteckt, aber es wird den einen oder anderen Markteilnehmer geben, der vielleicht in Anführungsstrichen für kleines Geld, weil es sehr unwahrscheinlich ist, hier eine Wette laufen hat, die darauf abzielt, dass es eine politische Veränderung gibt. Noch mal, das ist allerdings eine, da muss ich schon ehrlich sagen, das würde mich sehr überraschen, auch vor dem Hintergrund des politischen Drucks, der dort seitens des Weiseshauses besonders aufgebaut wird oder ich kann es auch anders formulieren, bisschen bildlicher gesprochen, dass es einen Kampf gegen Windmühlen, das ist Donkey Shot im Endeffekt, weil du hast hier mit Donald Trump jemanden, der offensichtlich bereit ist, aggressivst den Währungsmarkt zu manipulieren beziehungsweise auch den Handelskonflikt in China weiter zu forcieren und eskalieren zu lassen, ganz besonders eben um das zu bekommen, was er glaubt, was ihm seine Präsidentschaft dann oder ein Wiederwahl bescheren wird in 2020, das ist das einzige Ziel, was er hier offensichtlich verfolgt, nämlich die Fett dazu zu bringen, den Zins radikal zu reduzieren, eventuell ein quantitative easing mit auf den Weg zu bringen, in den Folge dessen eben dann darauf zu spekulieren, dass das neue Allzeithos zur Folge hat, beziehungsweise abdriften in eine Rezession, soweit verzögern kann, dass die Wiederwahl von Trump dann nicht gefährdet ist in November 2020, also so zumindest ist die aktuelle Spekulation Ich sagte jetzt auch schon das Wort quantitative easing, das ist das wo ich sage heute, das wird sehr interessant werden mit J. Paul einerseits erwarte ich ehrlich gesprochen, dass er sich zurückhält er hat diese Zurückhaltung jetzt schon in der letzten Vergangenheit häufig gezeigt und ehrlich gesprochen kann er gar nicht machen, meines Erachtens nach wenn er seine Glaubwürdigkeit behalten möchte, denn wir haben es jetzt auch in den Besitzungsprotokoll am Mittwochabendjahr seitens der Fett gesehen, dass man dort zwischen den Zahlen relativ deutlich kommuniziert hat man möchte gerne Geldpolitik machen Fuß sind auf einkommenden Wirtschaftsindikationen und nicht einkommend auf oder ausgehend von irgendwelchen Politikern, die sich in irgendeiner Form über den Geldpolitischen Kurs der Fett mein äußern zu müssen also anders, das war ein Wink in Richtung weißes Haus und Donald Trump die Fettistung bleibt eine unabhängige Institution ich weiß ja, privat und unbegleitig aber auf dem Papier ist die Unabhängigkeit der Notenbank eben auf jeden Fall ganz klar kommuniziert oder wird ganz klar dokumentiert und das wäre an dieser Stelle, wo die Politik eben darauf Einfluss nimmt, nicht mehr gegeben und das hat die Fett jetzt diverse mal unterstellt und durch die aggressiven Zinssenkungen, die Trump jetzt auch schon wieder in den letzten Tagen gefahren hat also sei es beispielsweise in Bezug auf Zinssenkungen ein bisschen quantitative easing oder die Bezeichnung von J. Powell im Fett Chairman eben als ein Golfer, der nicht putten kann also der kein Gefühl für den Markt eben tatsächlich hat wenn Paul jetzt plötzlich hergeht und diese aggressiven Zinssenkungen in der Zukunft in Aussicht stellt und auch darüber hinausgehend sagt wir planen sollten diese eben nicht auf fruchtbaren Boden fallen wir gehen in Folge dessen eine sich abzeichnende Rezession nicht abwenden können wir sind darüber hinaus eben auch Willens dann ein Anleihen auch noch Programm wieder aufzulegen ein Koalprogramm zu initiieren dann würde er im Endeffekt hier genau das tun was Trump von ihm will er würde sich dem politischen Willen beugen den Trump auch offen so kommuniziert hat in Folge dessen würde die Unabhängigkeit der Fett definitiv leiden und wir müssen in dem Zusammenhang auch sagen ich wäre dann selbst also ich wäre kurzfristig eventuell bullish und ich würde kurzzeitig Aufschläge sehen aber das würde den Markt eventuell so in seinem Vertrauen in die Fett erschüttern dass diese Unabhängigkeit offensichtlich nicht mehr gegeben wäre dass eben der Folge dessen sich Zeitner tatsächlich doch Kursabschläge dann zeigen könnten und erhöht Volatilität die Folge wäre deswegen bin ich mir nicht so sicher ob Trump nicht Paul ob der heute wirklich diese Karte spielen kann eventuell wird es eher in die Richtung gehen dass er sich verhalten neutral äußert er wird irgendwie versuchen durch die Zeilen mit seiner Rhetorik den Markt vielleicht so zu beeinflussen dass es irgendwie Trump das gibt was er will um da auch dann weiter in Ruhe seinen Job machen zu können um ihn zu besänftigen das aber kaum möglich ist wenn man sich jetzt mal den Tweet oder den Twitter Sturm von ihm angeschaut hat und die mangelnde Diplomatie die an diversen Stellen dann doch deutlich zeigt als Beispiel wer muss man eigentlich nicht sagen im Grunde genommen ist Paul in einer unglaublich schwierigen Situation und vielleicht wird er auch ausgehend davon den Markt dann einfach ganz bewusst enttäuscht oder nicht bewusst enttäuschen aber zumindest und sagen ich kann eigentlich machen was ich will ich habe sowieso verloren also mache ich einfach wie ich will im übertragenen Sinne und sagt dann einfach ok wir kommunizieren es wie es ist wir haben eine weite solide Wirtschaft es gibt für uns gar keinen Grund in irgendeiner Form jetzt aggressiv über Zinsdenkungen nachzudenken wir werden natürlich den Markt weiter beobachten aber in langen Rede kurzer Sinn das ist etwas was der Markt definitiv nicht erwartet er erwartet eigentlich ein sehr dobbelschen Paul ist Paul wirklich so neutral in seinen Äußerungen und wenn man ein bisschen darüber nachdenkt ist das ein jetzt glaube ich realistisch gewordenes Szenario dann wird diese Wahrscheinlichkeit hier dramatisch einbrechen dass es tatsächlich eine Zinssenkung gibt um 25 Basispunkte auf der September Sitzung also ich erwarte trotzdem den Cut um 25 Basispunkte weiter antizipatorisch in Anbetracht eines sich abzeichnenden Rezessionen am Horizont diese Indikation Wirtschaftsindikation die lassen sich nicht verleugnen Invertierung der Zunstrukturkurve und dergleichen sprechen eine deutliche Sprache das heißt nicht dass die Welt von einem oder die USA von einem Konjunkturellen Armageddon steht aber es ist zumindest mal eine klare Indikation und man wird auch hier seitens der FED entsprechend agieren müssen und einen wirtschaftlichen Absprung vielleicht jetzt schon versuchen in irgendeiner Form abzusprechen deswegen wird diese Wahrscheinlichkeit nicht komplett kollabieren aber eventuell auf 75% dann zurückgehen nach den Worten von Paul was allerdings dazu beitragen dürfte dass eben der US-Dollar einen sehr sehr starken Wochen Schluss sieht und was zum Beispiel auch dazu führen könnte, dürfte dass es zu einem heftigen Scheitern zum Beispiel im DAX hier oben an der 11.850 Region kommt, wir haben auch gestern eigentlich hier einen härteren Abfall gesehen wir sind tatsächlich genau bis in den Bereich vorgestoßen den ich schon auf der Agenda hatte wie ich auch die verse mal den letzten Tagen kommuniziert hatte 8.30, 8.50 auf der Oberseite das wäre der Bereich auch den wir hier diverse mal angelaufen sind, den sind wir gestern wieder angepickt, sind aber nicht durchgebrochen sondern stattdessen dann erstmal Schärfe unter Druck geraten und dann Verhalten aus dem Tag gegangen so möchte ich mal sagen also das heißt etwas anders formuliert, wir haben gestern eigentlich geschlossen in jenem Bereich wo wir gestern am Tag im erweiterten Sinne geöffnet hatten das heißt also wir haben eigentlich eine Null Runde gesehen die letzten zwei Handelstage wir sehen auch jetzt wieder eine Drift auf der Oberseite die ist überraschend, das muss ich auch sagen warum sage ich das, weil ich natürlich mittlerweile auch immer einen Blick werfe auch wenn es keine weiteren Eskalationen im Handelskonflikt gerade gibt, rhetorischer Natur die Chinesen sich ein bisschen zurückhalten aber auch die USA bzw. ganz besonders Donald Trump sich zurückhält was trotzdem erwähnenswert ist, ist dass wir hier uns offensichtlich wieder in Richtung dieser Hochs um 7.10 und auch höher orientieren in der Zeit stabilisieren wir uns um 7.08 7.09 Pimal Down im Dollar Jewern und wir sagten ja schon bereits alles was über 7 stattfindet ist risk off verdächtig, jegliche weitere Abwertung des chinesischen Jewern die jetzt stattfindet, ist eventuell auch ein Werken im stillen Camerline, in Anfügungsstrichen seitens der People's Bank of China sich auf weitere Twitter attacken sich auf weitere Attacken seitens Trump und weitere Eskalationen im Handelskonflikt eben vorzubereiten, jetzt bereits wir sagten auch, dass spätestens ab 37, also nicht nur dass das ein übergeordnete Ziel ist, sondern dort eben tatsächlich dann auch massive Volatilität und Unsicherheit in den Markt kommen könnte das ist sehr realistisch, dass wir das im 4. Quartal zu sehen bekommen und in Folge dessen ist natürlich dann auch die Möglichkeit gegeben, dass genau das auch ebenfalls noch mal zusätzlich treibend auf der Unterseite eben fungiert, also das heißt etwas anders formuliert, wir sehen im übertragenen Sinne ein Abbild dessen was wir schon im letzten Jahr gesehen haben ein dramatischen Unterschied, dass es diesmal keine Möglichkeit zu weiteren geldpolitischen Lockerungen gibt seitens der FED beziehungsweise keine wirklichen Möglichkeiten mehr, außer seitens des weißen Hauses oder diverser Berater oder weißer Hausoffizieller, die in irgendeiner Form in Aussicht stellen können, dass sich eine Lösung im Handelskonflikt mit den Chinesen abzeichnet, also letztes Jahr war es so dass wir im Oktober die Allzeithochst damals markiert haben ich gehe mal kurz hier auf den Dow Jones das war dort, das war am 3. Oktober haben wir kurzzeitig uns über oder im Bereich um 27.000 Punkte bewegt, kurz darunter und danach ging es dramatisch abwärts unter Risikavolatilität bis in den Jahresschluss hinein, das war eben das in Aussicht Stellen eines auf Autopiloten die FED-Bilanz reduzierenden Notenbankkoses, der seitens der FED kölpertiert wurde es hieß auch hier zum Beispiel dass eben die FED im volkswirtschaftlichen Sinne davon ausgeht dass man deutlich unterhalb des normales sich bewegt, also das normal oder das zinstechnische normal das lässt sich da eingehend interpretieren, dass man sagt wenn wir dort sind, dann bestimmt einkommende Wirtschaftsindikationen wie die weitere Geldpolitik eben der jeweiligen Notbank ausschaut und wir sind da drunter, also das war die Kommunikation damals, bedeutet nichts anderes als dass weitere Zinsanhebungen wahrscheinlich sind und das hat sich dann massiv gewandelt, die Geldpolitik der FED ist eben massiv expansiv mittlerweile geworden, wie gesagt, vor gutem Jahr waren wir noch 2, eventuell sogar 3 Zinsanhebungen im Jahr 2019, mittlerweile sind wir bei bis zu 14 Senkungen gewesen in der Spitze sogar zwischen den Zeilen eine Überlegung von QE, wir hatten ein Handelskonflikt der eher weiter eskalieren dürfte als dass er deeskaliert wird all das hat sich dann gewandelt und hat zu einer unglaublich starken Vorstellung der US-Aktienmarkt in der ersten Hälfte geführt das was ich gerade meinte, damit wir stehen genau da wo wir vor einem Jahr standen ist, jetzt ist alles ein Geldpolitischer Lockerung seitens der FED gefühlt eingepreist und gleichzeitig gibt es keine Möglichkeit mehr in irgendeiner Form deeskaliert im Handelskonflikt mit China zu wirken also da muss man irgendwie einen anderen Trigger finden schaut auf die Entwicklung in den USA, da werden jetzt aktuell ja Steuersenkungen thematisiert, ist immer gut, kurz vor einer Wahl in vieler einer Position über Steuersenkungen zu sprechen, das erhöht die Wahrscheinlichkeit und Wiedergewicht zu werden und kann zudem auch nochmal stimulieren für die jeweilige Wirtschaft wirken, also eventuell ist das die Karte die jetzt versucht wird zu spielen um den Markt einer Weise zu stabilisieren ich habe allerdings meine Zweifel ob das wirklich gelingt ob Donald Trump das an der Stelle gelingt aber es ist nicht unbedingt ein Zufall dass jetzt diese Karte gespielt wird die wie gesagt fiskalpolitischer Simulus ja durchaus eine sehr starke ist wenn wir nun mal daran anschauen, dass das auch mit einer der Haupttreiber für diese Rallye nach der Wahl Donald Trumps im Oktober November 2016 war diese Rallye und diese mega niedrige Wohler die wir hier gesehen haben die uns auf die höchsten Stände ever im Dow Jones getrieben hat gefolgt von enormer Volatilität dann allerdings in 2018 das war die in Aussichtstellung eben von fiskalpolitischen Stimuli bzw. durch die Unternehmens Steuersenkungen die dort auf den Weg gebracht worden sind ob das diesmal auch funktioniert wie gesagt das ist eine Frage ich würde sie aktuell gefühlt mit neuen Erbeantworten aber kommen wir zurück zu Jackson Hole also Fakt ist auf jeden Fall heute 16 Uhr wird es wahrscheinlich sehr volatil und gefühlt mittlerweile eher volatil auf der Unterseite weil sich Jay Powell doch in einer extrem schwierigen Lage befindet wo er dann einfach sagen wird punkt, punkt, punkt ich mach jetzt hier sowieso mein Ding macht sowieso keinen Sinn weil ich werde sowieso verlieren habe ich die Zinsenkung oder als wir aber er wird ja als Personifizierung der Fett betrachtet als er die Zinsenkung im Juli auf den Weg gebracht hat kam ein Tag später die Eskalation des Handelskonflikts mit Trump es war nicht genug und dergleichen die Attacken der jungen Vergangenheit lassen auch nicht erahnen dass sich da in irgendeiner Weise dieser Griff lockert ergo ich ziehe jetzt einfach meinen Stiefel durch und der wird eher eine neutrale Rhetorik sein und das ist eben genau das was den Markt glaube ich am wenigsten erwartet und was den Markt dann entsprechend stärker unter Druck bringen kann folgend eben in Dow Jones auch Abschläge aber da der Hauptgehandelte Markt bei uns eben wie gesagt braucht technisch sicherlich sehr interessant diese Widerstandsregion im Mittelpunkt des Geschehens wird dann auf der Unterseite in den Wochen Schluss der Bereich um die gestrigen Tiefstehen das ist der Bereich um 11.700 Punkte und sollten wir da drunter fallen sind in den kommenden Tagen in der kommenden Handelswoche im DAX weitere Abschläge denkbar mit ersten Ziel um 11.550 Punkte wichtig natürlich auch ein Blick auf den Divisenmarkt Euroyen da haben wir gestern interessanterweise nicht so große Impulse gesehen also die Action gestern war extrem choppy wirklich extrem choppy und auch sehr sehr sehr undankbar ehrlich gesprochen ich habe einen Trade gehabt der ganz knapp nicht ausgestoppt worden ist tatsächlich um 0,4 Pips habe ich keine Stop-Out eben tatsächlich auf diesen Trade gesehen allerdings hat der Trade am Tamtisch Richtern kein Profit abgeworfen ich habe trotzdem den Trade mit Verlust schließen müssen in den Handelsabend hinein weil die Breakouts hier nicht entsprechend auf den Weg gebracht worden sind und dann entsprechend eine trendige Bewegung ein recht evolatiles Marktumfeld sollte sich dieser Risk-of-Gedanke wie ich ihn gerade für den DAX kommuniziert habe etablieren dann ist natürlich wieder besonders der japanische Yen interessant Japanische Yen sollte in Folge dessen Kapitalzuflüsse sehen Risk-of was aufkommen könnte besonders gegenüber dem Euro natürlich sehr interessant weil gestern die Arbeitsindikationen veröffentlicht worden sind wo man dann auch schon so sagte das war hier die Kerze die darauf reagierte also im Euro Yen war es dann der Fall wir sind von 117,80,83 in der Spitze gelaufen bis auf dann 118,26 also das war ein Anstieg von 40 Pips jetzt würde man sagen das ist so viel für aktuellen Volatilitätstechnisch ausgehen in Relation zu aktuellen niedrigen Volatilität ist das schon enormer Sprung gewesen und jetzt kommt es das war das Resultat auf ein Datensatz Moment ich mach das mal hier zu das war das Resultat auf ein Datensatz der alles andere als ob die mal war das hatten wir hier schon gesehen wir hatten gestern ja kurz gesagt die wichtigen Zahlen heute früh also gestern früh waren es sind die Einkaufsmanager Indices die aus Deutschland, aus Frankreich und der Gleiche veröffentlicht werden wir haben alle positive Überrasche besonders die französischen die waren sehr solide wenn man sich hier den Service PMI anschaut und vorher 52,6 also positive Tendenz zusammengesetzt hier sind wir bei 52,7 gegen 51,8 der erwartet vorher 51,9 und auch Deutschland hat im Manufacturing Bereich ein positives Reading gezeigt wir sind dort bei 43,6 veröffentlicht worden naja, jetzt das ist das warum ich hier so lache wir müssen uns immer verhörgendes vor Augen führen die Wachstumschwelle liegt bei 50 also das heißt wir haben hier weiterhin richtig eine rezessive Tendenz und nicht nur das sondern wir stabilisieren uns im Bereich der Euro-Schuldenkrisen Tiefs von 2011-2012 und man muss in dieser Konstellation sagen dieses klitzekleine Aufbäum hier der schwarzen Linie, das wir hier zu sehen bekommen haben das ist nicht unbedingt ein Grund die deutsche Wirtschaft oder generell die die europäische Wirtschaft die europäische Wirtschaft irgendwie vor einem anstehenden Boom oder so zu sehen das war einfach nur ein kleines Aufflackern, nenn ich es jetzt mal in einem grundsätzlich weiter sehr sehr rezessiven Umfeld und Deutschland ist auf dem besten Weg in eine Rezession abzurutschen das ist übrigens auch die Erklärung dann für Herrn Trump weswegen in Deutschland warum gehe ich da jetzt so drauf ein? ich möchte das mal ganz kurz zeigen er nutzt ja hier gerne als Referenz dann zum Beispiel um die Fett drauf hinzuweisen warum sie den Zins entsprechend senken sollte und gestern war eben Deutschland in diesem Zusammenhang dran mal wieder was übrigens auch gefährlich ist weil es darauf hindeutet dass dann Aggressivität gegenüber Deutschland und dem niedrigen Euro früher oder später sich in entsprechenden Importzellen auf besonders Wirtschaftsküter aus der europäischen Union erstrecken könnte die Folge dessen dann ganz besonders der Automobilesektor in den Mittelpunkt des Geschehens rücken dürfte ein moment ein bisschen scrollen noch ein bisschen happy birthday also der Mann ist offensichtlich auf Twitter sehr aktiv Golf spielt er auch gerne jetzt am Wochenende G7-Gipfel auch da übrigens sollte man gefeit sein, dass da irgendwas kommuniziert wird in der kommenden Woche kolpertiert wird damit hätte ich es nicht gerechnet ich dachte das wäre ein bisschen einfacher diesen Feed von gestern zu finden mass shooting 4 Germany sells 30-year bonds offering negative yields also negative Zins gestern auch bei 30-jährigen deutschen Schuldtiteln Germany competes with the USA also Deutschland ist ein direkter Konkurrent der USA our Federal Reserve does not allow us to do und er geht darauf ein eben er verzielt darauf ab mit seinem Tweet darauf hinzuweisen dass Deutschland negative Zinsen hat die er ja auch hätte in den USA weil er davon ausgeht, dass die Wirtschaft in den Folge dessen boomt das einzige was er da jetzt natürlich ganz geschickt ausblendet oder auch vielleicht ein bisschen weniger geschickt für den der sich mit der Situation so ein bisschen auskennt oder sich das ein bisschen genauer betrachtet ist Deutschland ist eine Rezession also wenn er bereit ist zu zugeben dass die USA sich in einer Rezession bewegen dann wäre es sicherlich in diesem Zusammenhang auch möglich, dass die FED den leitzendsten negative Territorium senkt oder den Aussicht stellt die es zu tun inklusive eines aggressiven quantitative easing aber seine Wirtschaft, die US-Wirtschaft, ist ja dank ihm so unfassbar stark Sakasmus aus, also das war jetzt akastisch gemeint und fakt es einfach mal dass Trump sich die Welt jetzt hier in diesem Zusammenhang eben so macht, wie sie ihm gerne gefällt aber zurückgehend auf das, was das für den Markt bedeutet ist das natürlich relativ deutlich auch wo es dann mit der EZB in nächsten Monaten gehen dürfte und auf welche Spekulation sich etablieren würde oder dürften für den Euro ist das Bild grundsätzlich eher skeptisch zu bereugen und das bedeutet in Kombination mit einem sich eventuell abzeichnenden Risk-of-Modus am Markt durch eben einen dorfischen Fedsham & Powell die dorfischen horkischen neutralen nicht horkisch, aber neutralen Chairman Powell heute in Jackson Hole der den Markt er unter Druck bringt und einem Euro, der eher weiter bearish ist, muss man sagen, ist der Vorteil im Eurojenn auf jeden Fall weiter ganz klauf der Shortseite gegeben dann der Blick in dem Zusammenhang auf den Euro-S-Dollar auch hier vor dem Hintergrund eben dieser Unsicherheit und Powell wahrscheinlich der einzige Grund, warum wir uns derzeit in einer derart engen Handelsspanne bewegen die Wirtschaftsindikation aus der Eurozone sind alles andere als gut der Zinsmarkt hier auf dem Weg eben von einem Rekord zum nächsten zu streben in Bezug auf die Markierung neuer Hochs am Bond-Markt bzw. immer tieferer Tiefs im Zinsmarkt immer negativerer Zinsen die gezahlt werden sogar mittlerweile auf 30 Jahre heißt etwas anders formuliert sollte Powell hier für eine entsprechende Reduktion der Spekulation auf eine Zinssenkung der FED wie wir es gerade gesagt hatten zum Beispiel um 25 % auf 75 % sorgen und fast mit 100 % der Wahrscheinlichkeit in den Zinssenkungsseiten der FED gesehen sollte sich diese diese Wahrscheinlichkeit reduzieren wäre eben gleichzeitig mit einem kurzen Spike in Zinsen und folglich einem Push im Euro-S-Dollar auf der Unterseite zu rechnen und eine entsprechende Attacke dann wahrscheinlich auf die 1-10er-Region und ergänzend hierzu wird es allerdings jetzt spannend deswegen möchte ich den eigentlich nur so nur mit einfließen lassen und die Sicherheit wird sein wie reagiert Dollar japanischer Yen denn hier haben wir einerseits den potenziellen Risk Offenmodus der den japanischen Yen begünstigt aber wie gesagt, andererseits potenziell den Zins im Dollar der für den Spike im Dollar sorgen könnte ich bin sehr gespannt, ich glaube aber nicht dass wir uns nachhaltig über 100x80 100x107 dann etablieren können und in Folge dessen dort eher nochmal eine Widerstandsregion finden zeitnah dann in den kommenden Tagen auch Push nochmal auf der Unterseite mit Ziel um 105 eben zu tun bekommen als dass wir eben auf der Oberseite eine massive Stärke Bewegung zurück über 100x107 zu sehen bekommen wobei natürlich rein Schad technisch gesagt werden muss alles was hier unterhalb von 109 stattfindet ist sowieso erstmal rein marktechnisch betrachtet bearish zu betrachten ja, ja, fertig das wäre dann erst mal in dem Zusammenhang ganz spannend wird in dem Zusammenhang vielleicht auch interessiert für Gold also mein favorisiertes Szenario erneut oder weiterhin so der Rücksetzer Richtung 1.440, 1.450 US Dollar Profi in Onze wir müssen abwarten was Jackson Hohe liefert aber Gold ist gefühlt eigentlich in dem Win-Win also zumindest meines Erachtens nach weil wir haben einerseits ein Jay Powell der Entweder massiv dovish daherkommt und die Erwartungshaltung von Donald Trump erfüllt was ich wie gesagt jetzt eher nicht glaube ausgehend von dem was ich alles gesagt habe aber aber nichtsdestotrotz wäre das etwas was den Zins den US Zins noch mal stärker unterdruck bringen könnte und bullisch für Gold wäre auf der Kehrseite steht die Option dass Paul sich einigermaßen neutral verhält infolgedessen es zu einer Ertäuschung am Aktienmarkt kommt zu einer stärkeren Risiko-Aversion zwar zu einem Anziehen der Zinsen und einem stärkeren US Dollar aber die Risiko-Aversion die infolgedessen eben überschwappen durfte auf Gold und auch da positiv eigentlich für das Gelbe in den Metall wäre mit diesen saisonalbolischen Fenster an dem wir uns derzeit bewegen nochmal eine Attacke dann in den kommenden Tagen allerdings nicht unbedingt heute aber in den kommenden Tagen Richtung 1530 1550 US Dollar Profi und zu sehr wahrscheinlich werden lässt und mittelfristig bleibt mein Kursziel auf der Oberseite dort der Bereich 1650 bis 1700 US Dollar Profi und das wäre es soweit erstmal meinerseits gewesen ich blicke auch immer hier ein bisschen auf ganz oben diese Zeile auf den Dachs und ob sich dort irgendetwas jetzt nach der Kasseeröffnung um 9 Uhr tut aber dem ist nicht der Fall also wir arbeiten aktuell an der Open Range hier gekennzeichnet wir sind zwei rotfarbenen horizontalen Linien ich, beziehungsweise ich denke es ist mittlerweile bekannt beziehungsweise vielleicht im Laufe der letzten Tage bekannt geworden dass ich die Positionen in den Vorzeit hier von diesem Ema 50 eingehe und was wir aktuell sehen können ist wir pendeln um diesen Ema 50 also weder in die eine Richtung noch in die andere Richtung sehen wir eine deutliche Tendenz was eben das Bild unterstreicht was ich gerade auch schon sagte ich glaube nicht, dass wir heute bis 16 Uhr Großaction zu sehen bekommen also es würde mich sehr überraschen es bleibt sicherlich abzuwarten aber in Folge dessen würde ich jetzt sagen wenn man das System basiert handelt aber nichtsdestotrotz würde ich es eben mit reduzierter Positionsgröße aktuell tun wollen unterhalb des Ema 50 mit einem Short Shade oberhalb eben mit einem Long Shade und ja soweit wäre es aus meinerseits gewesen dann möchte ich mich bedanken dass ich hier die letzten 3 Wochen habe euch meinen Input zur Verfügung stellen können eben für Tickmill man würde sich mit Sicherheit sehen davon gehe ich ganz schwer aus mal was zusammen ich hoffe, dass ihr Spaß hattet dass es euch gefallen hat und meinerseits allseits happy trading pass auf die Stops auf jetzt wünsche ich euch erst mal ein schönes Wochenende viel Erfolg heute mit der Rede von Jackson Hole bzw. von J. Powell in Jackson Hole hoffen wir, dass uns das allen viel Spaß bereitet, Volatilität liefert und vor allem Punkte und Pips für das Handelskonto bedeutet ja soweit sei es das meinerseits gewesen also happy trading, pass auf die Stops auf habt euch wohl, machts gut, bis dann und tschüss

Hunting Bugs While Sleeping by Paul Lorett Amazona
16 March 2019 10:00, Lecture Theatre The key idea of property based testing is that rather than writing a test that tests just a single scenario, you write tests that describe a range of scenarios and then let the computer explore the possibilities for you rather than having to hand-write every one yourself.Think of a normal unit test (example-based) as being something like the following: 1. Set up some data. 2. Perform some operations on the data. 3. Assert something about the result. Using property-based tests, your approach will look like this: 1. For all data matching some specification. 2. Perform some operations on the data. 3. Assert something about the result. In this talk, I'll share on the following: Short intro to property-based testing (PBT) Few examples/approaches in using it Adding PBTs to a Continuous Integration Build (so it can hunt bugs while you're sleeping :-) )

Good morning everyone. How do I pronounce your name again? Niana mentioned I'm Paul and I'm a developer. I develop end-to-end dotnet solutions at work. Outside work I'm involved, I'm volunteer in two awesome organizations. Big Data X and Data Kind. In Data Kind we use Data Science to help nonprofits get insights from their data to help the communities better. And at Big Data X we aim to improve the data engineering literacy here in Singapore and surrounding regions. Hence we try to organize free workshops and events for this goal. And last year I went to Australia. I usually attend conferences because those are the things that make me happy. I learned about property-based testing from Zach who's speaking right here talking about hypothesis which is a library on property-based testing. And when I came back to Singapore of course I delighted about the library so I shared it with the community here. I talk about property-based testing with hypothesis. But today I'd like to focus more on the essentials. Like what really is property-based testing if you want to dissect it a bit. So I try to define it like it's a type of testing that asserts based on properties that describe the relationship between the input and the output of the function that is being tested. Is this clear enough? Yep, exactly. That's why I like examples better. So let's take a testing example. Let's try to test a simple multiply function. For this test function that we have, do you have any comments on the test? Yeah, don't do this. Don't ever do this. This is like implementing the functionality as part of your test, right? So if this is not the right way, what other possible approaches in testing that we can possibly do? So one of the basic ones is giving examples. So we give an example of the inputs, like two and three. And then we try to provide the example output. So here we have two of those examples. Example one, we have this group. And then example two, we have a bunch of inputs. And then the corresponding output, four times five equals 20. And we can choose to refactor it, make it look beautiful. So we have the common logic here. We're still comparing actual output and expected output. But it's nice to have all of our parameters for factors and expected output in one place that we can easily add. So that's still okay. But what we want to do is, is there a way that we can have a way not to depend on the expected output? Can we do a test just by depending on the inputs alone? So I use the multiply function just not just because it's a simple function, but it's also something that reminds me when I was in primary school. So in primary school, we learned about properties. Let's say arithmetic properties, right? You have like addition properties. You have the multiplication properties. And when we talk about property-based testing, it's really this kind of properties that we're referring to. It's the attributes and then the characteristics of the function that we're trying to test, right? Not the properties that is like a syntactic sugar for C-sharp or properties that you own. Of course, you have maybe like bungalows and stuff. But the properties that we're talking about here is something like this. So in multiplication properties, you have cumulative property, which you can reorder. It's still going to be having the same result. You have associative property, multiplicative property, and distributive property. So how do we apply this to testing? So if you notice here, we got rid of the output now. We're just going to depend on the input data that we have. But using this input data and our knowledge about properties, that's how we're going to improve our approach to testing. So we can do the cumulative property in this fashion. So we just rearrange. And then using the same function that we're testing, it should give the same result. So that's the property, and we're trying to test the cumulative property. And so on with the other properties you can do also in the same approach. But here, if you notice, what we're trying to do is we're now using property-based testing. But if you notice, I didn't use any framework yet, right? Why would you use a framework for such an example? We're still using predetermined inputs. So predetermined inputs, that means I have to set these inputs manually by myself. The thing is, here, for the multiply function, what is the population of our inputs? Can I do the testing in such a way that I can exhaustively test the function? It's quite impossible, right? Because you have, like, factors which can have, like, millions of samples, multiply millions, and all of these is impossible to me to manually write it down. So is there another way that we can deal with this sort of fashion? If your input is only a to z, I can just for loop it, right, and then test all the data. But if your sample input is too big for you to do exhaustive testing, we still want to test. But what you might be able to do is, instead of testing using the whole population, why not, like, test, like, sample at a time? Like, maybe 100 samples, test with that. If it's okay, then try with another randomized sample. So at least we might not test all the population, but at least we're moving there. And hopefully somewhere down the road, maybe some combination will spawn a bug or something that we'll be able to learn from, right? So that is using randomized inputs. So in this example, I'm using now the hypothesis for me to be able to generate a random set of integers and another integers for the factors, right? And for this, the hypothesis is just giving us, like, 100 samples at a time. 100 samples is the default size of the sample that the hypothesis is giving. So you might ask, why use a library? I can code the randomized inputs by myself, right? Why should I use a library? Well, there's nothing stopping you from creating your own library or function, right, if you want. It's just that why do you need to reinvent the wheel if there are lots of libraries that are doing this already? Even if you're using it for another language like Java or C sharp or F sharp, why would you recreate the same library, right? So perhaps before you create your own library, maybe you can look into the open source ecosystem and community. Maybe there is a library that's already built for property-based testing for your language and maybe it's not perfect, but we're in a community. We're here to help each other. If there's something that you notice to improve, maybe you can send a pull request and make the library better and then it will help the rest of the community as well. So apart from randomizing, what else can a library do? So at least let's say for hypothesis, it doesn't give you just randomized samples alone, but it also allows you to have more elaborate input criteria. So here, apart from integers, let's say you want to only include those that are greater than zero, all positive integers. You can do that or you can do arbitrary conditions. Think of formal methods, right? You can define your criteria in such a way. And apart from that, a while ago, we were doing example-based testing. Let's say you have a situation or a set of inputs that you really want to test, but you're already doing randomized testing. You can do that also using this property-based testing library. You can have an example. So what it will do, it will run with your example plus the randomized samples as well. So you have the best of both worlds, right? And from here, you don't have to depend on the default value or default size, which is 100. You can increase it to a few hundreds more. And in fact, if you want to do it with continuous integration, you might want to increase it to a lot more because you want the more samples that you test, the more probability that you will be able to catch the bug that you're hunting for. So you might ask, like, property-based testing is really good. Can I use it for everything? So this is my thought process. I'm always open to new ideas in case some things change. But currently, this is how I see it. So I usually ask myself when doing testing, is that function that I am testing, does it have testable properties from the inputs that I'm providing it? If there's none, then I just continue with usual example-based testing. But if I can derive a generic property that I can sort of use as a high-level way of testing, then I try to approach it in a property-based testing kind of approach. And then after that, I ask myself, can I afford to test all possible inputs to this function? If I can, if the input is maybe just A to Z, then I can just for loop it, and then use predetermined inputs for that manner. However, if the input is a combination of inputs are so large that I cannot really test manually, then I'll try to leverage on randomized inputs and then test sample at a time. Now that we have randomized testing, I don't want to be manually triggering this, right? You don't want to be manually triggering for bugs. You want it in such a way that you might be sleeping at night, but something is working for you, hunting the bugs for you so that when you wake up in the morning, first problem or some bugs, you'll be able to just get a report that, hey, there's something wrong with your function, you should fix this, right? So you can have some sort of system that you don't have to pay for it. It will do the work for you. So why not? So that hence we have this hunting bugs with CI. We have this normal CI. You can keep it there. It will do its job. The purpose of that is so that we have early detection of problems that is there, that's okay. But what we want to add is we want to have another CI pipeline dedicated for our bug hunting. So I call it the bug hunting continuous integration. So the difference here is instead of being triggered by merchant pull requests and so on, I want this to be scheduled. And if the CI platform that I'm using allows me, I want to schedule it as often as possible, maybe every hour or every day if it doesn't allow me. The purpose for this is for me to hunt bugs. Even if I'm away, I'm sleeping, it will hunt bugs for me. It will try to do those around my inputs and then probably give me a result with certain combinations. Maybe it fails that system. So let me do some demo. So I have some screenshots, but I'm not going to use this. This is only for backup in case the internet goes off or the electricity has some problems or the world as we know ends. I can't do much on the other two, but you know what I mean. So what we have here is a sample for arithmetic, the one that we discussed. So we have the multiply function and we also have a set of property-based tests with randomized inputs. So you have random integers and then this. So what I'm going to do now, I'm going to integrate this using... Who uses GitHub here? Anyone using GitLab? Which one do you like most? I use both of those. So for GitHub, because it has nice integration with Azure DevOps, Azure DevOps, by the way, is free. Yeah, I don't know why they put Azure there because usually when people think of Azure, it's the paid version, right? But yeah, all of my setups are free. So I tried to... Let me add a simple CI for this. So inside Azure DevOps, I can just build a new pipeline if that clicks. And then I'll just go to GitHub and then select my... This one. Multiplication. Because it's done in Python. Multiplication GH demo. And then once I have that selected, I just need to configure. And then this one, I'll need to cheat a bit. I have something configured already. Let me just... So what it does, once you have this configured, it's auto-checking into your GitHub repository. So I'm just going to copy this and then copy it here. So I included the test step here, where I use spy test to test using property-based testing using hypothesis. So that's part of the step. And then I'm just going to save and run. I'll just commit it to master branch. And then once that is done, I should be able to see it, check into the repository. And then once it's checked into the repository, I should be able to see the steps in the CI. So it will try to pull the necessary files and information. The normal CI steps that you usually see, including the building of artifacts and then also the testing. So it's currently preparing for the job to be queued. So while waiting, why not I can take some questions if there's any questions in the audience for now while we're waiting. So it's doing the normal CI, what CI needs to do, CI needs to do. It's quite fast installing the assemblies. So I did this setup both in Azure DevOps. I also did it in GitLab. So my GitLab setup I'll show you also later. So what we're trying to do now is we'll set up the CI first. And once the CI is done, you don't want to be manually kicking off the CI, right? So you need to explore whether your CI platform has ability to schedule the trigger. So I'll show that to you also. So it's done. What I want to show here is it has a step on testing. So in the test, you should be able to see it's so small. So if I scroll down, you should be able to see the hypothesis statistics where the first test that we have, I'm using 200 examples. The rest are just defaults. So you have like 100 passing examples. So this is fine. This is good. So once we have this, the next thing that you want to do is to be able to set the schedule so that it will trigger on its own every day or every hour. Unfortunately, I think for Azure DevOps, the granularity where it allows me to do the scheduling is only, I think, once per day. So it's okay. Once per day is better than nothing. I can just increase the sample to 1,000, right? So I can test more. So I'll just go to the releases. Oh, sorry. It should be builds. So in the multiplication, I'll just edit this. And then in the settings, under the settings, you have triggers. And in the triggers, you should be able to see setting for schedule. Here, scheduled. So I'll just add a schedule. It allows you to do scheduling every day. And then the thing that I want to uncheck here is only schedule builds if their source or pipeline is changed. We don't care if there's a change in the source code for this approach for bug hunting CI. So I'm going to uncheck that. And then let's say every 2 a.m. in the morning while I'm sleeping someone or something is doing the job for me in hunting bugs. So I'm just going to save this. Save and queue. So it will save it on its own. For GitLab, it has this similar functionality. You can set up your CI also. But the thing with GitLab is instead of allowing you to just do it like once per day, it allows you to do every hour. So if you notice here, once I set it up, this is GitLab, by the way. It's building and hunting bugs for me every hour. So you can set it up. So it's a choice whether you're hosting currently in GitLab or GitLab. And these are free public repos. If I want to go to my builds, this is where I can monitor the results of the builds as well. So in this multiplication GH demo, every build result you can see from here. The ones that I showed to you about how does the test result write. So if something fails, you should be able to see it here failing as well. And then let's say hypothesis found that for this combination, your function failed. And then you go and fix the bug. So with that, let me bring it in the summary. So what we've done so far is we've tried to explore on various ways of testing a function. We've tried with a basic example by providing example outputs. After that, we refactored and then tried to do it in a parameterized way. And then we explored at least two approaches in property-based testing. We're using predetermined inputs and then the randomized inputs. If we're not able to exhaustively test using all of the possible inputs to your function. And then we also explored the bug-hunting CI pipeline where it's a pipeline that is separate to your normal pipeline. Let your normal pipeline do its thing. But we use this pipeline to help us hunt bugs with those certain combination of inputs. You can reach me here. That's my Twitter and GitHub handle. And I've shared the links here for the previous hypothesis demo if you want to dig more into the hypothesis property-based testing framework as well as the demos that I used a while ago. And that's it for me. Thanks. Okay, I think we have time for one question. Yes? Yeah, you can give the mic. Yes? Give a real example of property-based because there's no, I mean, like, multiplication as it seems, the test doesn't really catch the bug where it's overflow, let's say, integer overflow or something. Because you test commutative and all this, you might not get it right. Yeah, that's true. So apart from randomized testing, there's also this approach called fast testing. And usually fast testing is usually you have randomized inputs and then your goal there is try to do as much input so that it breaks the system. That is another type of testing. But for property-based testing, you're thinking of a predetermined or deterministic result where you want to test that once you have this result, it coincides with the property of the function that you're trying to test for. So what I'm sharing here is property-based testing, it won't replace all the testing that you've done so far. So you still have your example base, you still have your fast testing for that purpose. Plus, now we have another approach called property-based testing which we can add in our suite of kind of tests that we apply to the functions that we do. So other examples probably for this is just like multiplication, right? But other popular examples for property-based testing is, let's say, if you have, let's say, a list, right? You want to reverse a list. So one property there is if you reverse the list twice, it should be the same list that you input from the previous. So if you order like one, two, three, I reverse it, this is three to one, I reverse it again, it should come out as one, two, three. So the input and then if I reverse twice, it should be equal. And then of course there are like a few other approaches, like if you notice there's this diamond kata where it also teaches you on like how to spot properties from the inputs and outputs. Usually you try to look the input to the system and then output and try to check whether there are properties. The one that you shared, because people are also sharing that, hey, overflow is also a property or something, it might be case to case, I would categorize that maybe more appropriate for fast testing if that's the goal for that, but for property I want to have like deterministic expectation. Thank you. Okay. Thank you for the question. Thank you very much, Paul. Please give him a round of applause. Thank you everyone.

Okay, so good morning. Good morning once again. Good to have all of you here today. I think before we get started, I just wanted to address a couple of questions that came up last week. And I think I'm just trying to see if the people who asked the questions are on the call. There were three questions. One was about Saragasi. I think that question was by Kennedy, and I think Kennedy is on the call. The question on vows was by Sam. I think Sam's also on the call. Thank you, Sam. And there was a question on when someone is in sin, how do we deal with that? Christopher was also on the call. Great. Okay, good. So we'll just spend maybe two, three minutes. And it's just, you know, I didn't want to leave that off it is as it was. So just want to address that quickly in the first couple of minutes. We'll take on the question on Saragasi. And I think that question was from Kennedy. I'm not sure, but I'm just going to address it. So the question was, is Saragasi right? So for those of us who may not know what the meaning of Saragasi is for a couple who is unable to have children of their own, they take on another person or another, usually a woman, because, you know, birthing happens, I mean, the development of the fetus happens only in a woman. So usually a woman, there are times it can be taken by from men as well. So I'll explain there are two different kinds of Saragasi that generally is seen the traditional Saragasi where the sperm as well as the egg, sorry, the sperm of the married man is, you know, is there's artificial insemination where the sperm is given to a surrogate mother that is a third person, a third party, and not to the wife themselves because there could be certain issues that the wife may be having. So she becomes a surrogate mother. She carries part of the genes of the couple. So that is just the husband's and then her egg is taken and that's where that's called traditional Saragasi. Whereas gestational Saragasi is where it is done in vitro, that is the sperm as well as the egg is, you know, is fertilized outside and the embryo is inserted into a person and that's called a gestational Saragasi. So these two things is what is generally our others also, but I think we will just deal with that here. So, you know, as I did some reading, the certain events of Saragasi that we can see in scripture is the Abraham-Sara Hegar story where we see that Sarah takes Hegar and gives her to Abraham in order to conceive a child because she was not able to at that time. So this was something that was seen at that times in those times when a woman was not able to bear children. There would be maids or other people who were given in so that they could continue the line of the family. So what we see from that story is that, you know, using a Saragat parent, definitely when you look at that, there was in that entire story you see there was a lot of pain, a lot of heartache, a lot of confusion through that entire process, that arrangement. So one thing that Hegar did not want to do was, did not want to give Ishmael over to Sarah when she, when he was born. Okay. And this is something that we see very often happening even today that they discover that they, that the Saragat mother discovers that they have developed such a strong attachment to the unborn child and find it difficult to give it away after it is born, even though there may be financial compensation that that that's there and there are, I've seen a couple of movies in that in on that line as well. Okay, so the Bible specifically does not call out or, you know, say anything about the use of a Saragat mother but definitely I think there are certain principles and certain moral ethics that I think we can pick up from scripture. So one thing that we've been studying is we've seen that marriage is designed to be between one man and one woman only. Right. And so when you bring in a third person into this relationship, there is a third parent. And this, of course, definitely brings about very difficult distance as to, you know, would, would the child know about the surrogate about the surrogate mother, what, what kind of expectations would this would this lead to does the surrogate mother have any rights to the to the child. And, and I think these are also practical concerns that should be considered before someone you attempts to use a surrogate. And sometimes we see that couples also use certain family members and that often can get even a lot more trickier. Because of the strong, the, how the, the, the family member may have a strong attachment to the couple. I think in principle, what we also need to see is, yes, we see that God is the one who blesses, just like God blesses us with everything else, like a job, a wealth, health. So also he blesses us with children. Right. And there are times that the couples do not have children. And we see that children are a gift from the Lord. I read somewhere where it says, you know, the Bible says the children are a gift, not right. Right. But using surrogacy out of defiance or an arrogance against God is something that would be would be sin. But I think it is important to consider to prayerfully consider this and seeking God's will and his guidance and the leading of the Holy Spirit in a couple who would wish to do that. But yes, keeping these principles in mind and the fallouts or the consequences that it could bring about through what we've seen in scripture through the through the story we were talking about. It's something that we see that can cause pain and hardships and difficulties. So a decision like that is something really needs to be taken wisely. Right. So that's the stand I have. So to be able to say surrogacy completely right is surrogacy completely wrong is a stand. And I would say take it as a principle where we where we see marriage as that defined by two people only that is a husband and a wife. My next my next thought was if you know a childless couple wanted a child who could not have a child you know naturally the next good option is adoption to be able to adopt is is something that that we see lines of scripture of in the sense of you know being kind to the needy to the poor to the orphaned. So a gesture of adoption is something where you are giving someone a home, a life and also a legacy to follow. I'd say if you're looking at surrogacy and adoption, you know, open your eyes to the to the understanding of adoption that that that seems to be a lot more stronger when when you look at it biblically. All right, I, I hope I address that in the best way possible. I'm going to look into the next question. The next question was. Yeah, so so Sam's question was I have a question on marriage vow that came up during a conversation. It's asked us not to take any vows and I yeses to be yes and no to be no so so what his question was, then is taking a marriage vow, a wrong thing. Okay, so if you look at the verse that you bought by Sam, which was Matthew 533 to 37. I'm just going to quickly read it. You have heard that the law of Moses says do not break your vows you must carry out the vows you have made to the Lord, but I say, don't make any vows. If you say by heaven, it is a sacred bow because heaven is God's throne. And it says, you know, do not swear by earth by Jerusalem, or by my head just say a simple yes. I will or no I won't your word is enough to strengthen your promise with a vow shows that something is wrong. Well, Jesus is not. I think I don't think he's talking about those formal official promises like you make in a contract or in a vow or that these kind of questions do come up even in a courtroom is it okay to make a courtroom. I think it applies to times when people try to emphasize their honesty using a note like you know we may say I cross my heart around my mother, you know mother promise or let me let me die if I if I'm not, if I'm not saying something that is true. You know, or the words that you say I swear or, you know, all of that. So what it implies is that the oath is guaranteeing the person is telling the truth and has good intentions. That's what it's meant to imply. But Jesus flatly says that, you know, let your yes be yes and then you'll know be no. So in other words, that we should be known for our integrity. So as a believer as a person who's known for our integrity, we should not really need to actually base our promises on anything. Our word should be yes and no and that's based on what we stand on. And so Jesus says not to swear on anything, but just make it simple so it does not refer to the formal oaths and bows that you're making there it's a covenant vow that you're making, you know, a commitment you're making to another person in the presence of a, you know, of an audience or of a congregation. So I think it's a little different in what he was meaning to say as against what about it about marriages being being about or a note. All right, I hope I answered that too. The last one was Christopher's question on we were talking I think about people in a live in relationship and what would happen if, you know, in spite of their warnings. Would it necessitate them to leave the church so that that was one of the things I'd want to bring back and I think we had a discussion of this in one of the mentorship programs where we we bought about the scripture on Matthew 1815 to 17. So we take these principles and I'll quickly read this out. It says if another believer sins against you go privately and point out the fault if the other person listens and confesses that you have one that person back. But if you are unsex unsuccessful take one or two others with you and go back again so that everything may be confirmed by two or three witnesses. If that person still refuses to listen. Take your case to the church. If the church decides you're right, but the other person won't accept it. Treat that person as a pagan or a corrupt tax collector. Okay, so just taking this as principle. I think one of the things that we would want to do is bring about correction and discipline and love. That does not mean we overlook sin or one sin. We bring it about go privately discuss fault point out what it is and wait to see if there is a restoration. And if that doesn't happen. Yes, doing it maybe a couple more of times and you know working with others to do it so you know taking maybe a leader or a counselor or a pastor to help to reach reach out to that. And if it continues to be repeated again you know we show as much grace as possible but it also really depends on what kind of issues or reasons it is. Now let's say that someone a person in ministry is into an extra marital affair and they continue to hold on to that. You would need to take a stand and decide to bring to step them down from that position of leadership till they bring they bring themselves into correction or you know anyone who is who is there. Knowing the truth knowing and understanding that what they are doing is sin but yet does not come to a place of repentance and restoration. That's when you know you actively take a call of stepping them down and you know getting them to get their act straight before they can come back into working either in church or you know being a part of the ministry. I think these are certain and scripture gives that you know understanding of how we could do it. So I think basic principles is in love showing grace. Yes a couple of times where you are you do a bit of correction and discipline but depending on where they are the positions that they take. It is important to take the call on whether they continue on with with that place of ministry or not. All right. I hope I quickly answered. Great. Okay. All right. So going on to to today's lesson. You know today's lesson is actually quite a difficult topic to discuss about and it's something that is not often spoken about is not often discussed in church. But it is extremely necessary that we we highlight the specific chapter. So I'm on chapter 13 and I'm on page 143 143 where we are going to be learning about establishing certain boundaries. Okay. So in my in my experience in counseling there are many times that I come across couples who who come together and seek help because there has been either infidelity unfaithfulness and extra marital affair adultery that has taken place. And like all of us do understand a couple being in a committed relationship where there is a third party that gets involved especially in an emotional or a sexual way through a sexual affection definitely can break and severe and deeply wound and hurt a marriage. And going through those sessions and sittings with people who face that you you begin to see the kind of pain the kind of rejection abandonment and the struggles that people go through. Right. And we we understand we notice that marriage in itself is not it's not a pill for you to protect yourself from any kind of you know any kind of intrusions and especially when it comes to adultery or extra marital affair. So being married does not safeguard you completely from not having those feelings. And I think that's something we all need to be real about that that marriage being in marriage does not protect you or does not make you immune to adultery or to to affairs or to emotional entanglements. And just as much as you see this as something that's common in the outside world. It is very prevalent, even among a believing circle, you may. I mean, then there are so many, you know, we don't want to pick up names, but there are so many, you know, in the Christian world and in that we have seen that certain issues like this have cropped up. Often we need to, you know, also see and understand that these affections outside of marriage usually don't happen. You know, all of a sudden it doesn't it doesn't someone doesn't wake up on one day and say okay I'm ready for an affair it doesn't happen like that and it is something that is that takes place very, very gradually takes place often casually. It could be someone maybe a colleague at work or it could be a common friend, or it could be someone that you're ministering to that, you know, get getting into casual conversations. And often it is with good intentions that those initial meetings happen, you know, maybe just to share, or maybe you're just empathizing or sympathizing with somebody. But then slowly those those casual conversation leads into something that is more stronger that can finally lead into a place of sin. So this chapter really is looking at how first of all recognizing what are what are some things that we may need to do to safeguard our marriages, as well as what are some things we need to do to restore someone who probably is in who's already been through a situation like this. So when we look at scripture, we see that scripture has a lot to say about about this it talks about the danger that's there it talks about consequences it gives us warnings. It gives us different reasons and you know, protective measures as to how we need to ensure that we do not get there. So as we go through this chapter, we're going to be looking at a couple of things is yes we look through scripture and see what it has to say about about setting our boundaries. We're going to be looking at certain consequences of it. We're also going to be looking at how we can safeguard our marriages and also what is the freedom from that. So I'm at page 143 and maybe I'd like to read a couple of scriptures and a lot of the scriptures that's written here is taken from either the Good News Bible or the message. And you can actually really see the true essence of what is what is being being said there. So can I request somebody on page 143 to read Proverbs to 16 to 22 Proverbs to 16 to 22 anybody who can just unmute and quickly read please. Shall I read? Yes, Savani go ahead. Proverbs chapter 2 verse 16 to 22 says wise friends will rescue you from the temptress that smooth talking seductress who's faithless to the husband. She married years ago never gave a second thought to her promises before God. A whole way of life is doomed. Every step she takes brings her closer to hell. No one who joins her company ever comes back ever sets foot on the path to real living. So join the company of good men and women. Keep your feet on the tried and true parts. It's the men who walks straight who will settle this land. The women with integrity who will last here. The corrupt will lose their lives. The dishonest will be gone for good. Amen. Thank you Avni. So even as the scripture is talking about a seductress. Okay, we also this is not just with a reference to a woman. It is also we take it in reference to a man as well. We see over here how it talks about the way of the seductress. How the way of the seductress is something that it brings someone closer to hell and to be careful. It says beware. Be careful about what what a seductress or someone who is wayward can do to you to you and to your marriage. Another verse. It's at the end of that page which is Proverbs 7 21 to 26. If someone else could quickly unmute and read Proverbs 7 21 to 26. Can I read? Go ahead. Go ahead, Kennedy. Treat with them as your sister and inside as your closest friend. They will keep you away from other men's wives and from women's seductive words. Okay. All right. Thank you. Somebody can read Proverbs 7 21 to 26, please. 21 to 26. So she tempted him with her charms and he gave in to her smooth talk. Suddenly he was going with her like an ox on the way to be slaughtered. Like a deer prancing into a trap where an arrow would pierce its heart. He was like a bird going into a net. He did not know that his life was in danger. Now then, sons listen to me. Pay attention to what I say. Do not let such a woman when your heart do not go wandering after her. She has been the ruin of many men and cause the death of too many to count. Thank you. Thank you, Sam. So, you know, scripture is very clear and there are a lot more other scriptures that actually tells you that this is something that you would see, something that you would observe all around you. And often, you know, specifically looking at this and in my experience of counseling, I have seen, you know, people talk about how there are people who wait, just like how scripture says, you know, who prowl and who wait for the next victim. You know, the waiting for someone to devour, waiting for somebody to catch hold of to get into an adulterous relationship. And often, there are these, we see, I mean, in a metropolitan city like where we are in Bangalore, the workplace is a very common place that you see people lurking around this way. So scripture warns about it and says it requires our wisdom and our grace to identify and to know how to keep away from the seductions of people. All right. If you look at Proverbs 917, it says stolen water is sweet and bread eaten in secret is pleasant. Now, like I was telling you, you know, a lot of times people do not get into a relationship all of a sudden. It is something that happens very, very gradually. Often they are casual friendships that take on, you know, you may just be meeting in for coffee and just sharing some of your problems. Or, you know, it could be sharing certain, certain, you know, extremities about your spouse. And there you begin to see that the other person seems to understand and, you know, is helping you through it and asking you to stand up and stand strong and that they are with you and they are they're going to support you and all of that. And thereby slowly beginning to see that there are those emotional affections that happen. So, and those affections turn into an entanglement. So how do you recognize that one is into an emotional entanglement? And I think one way, a very clear way of understanding if you are entangled with somebody emotionally is just to check to see how often you're thinking of them, right? How often I moved to give them a phone call or maybe text them. Or, you know, usually the excuses are they are my, they are my colleagues or, you know, they are people who I'm working with on a project or this is somebody, you know, my junior and I'm mentoring them. Often it comes as an excuse like that. But just understanding maybe looking at the content of your text or content of the conversation that happens helps you begin to see whether there is a sense of entanglement that is building in. And when they come tank, it isn't very far that the next levels of a physical or a sexual attraction happens and then falling into sexual sin. So it is, as it says, it is a slow fade into that. It does not. And very rarely, I think the percentage is very rare where people have a one night stand. I'm not saying it's not common. It's not there, but it's quite rare that people have a one night stand that maybe at an impulse. So people are at a party and then they get into something like that. Or, you know, as a result of some kind of an emotional disturbance as an impulse, they would go to someone and then, you know, have a one night stand. But most of the times you will begin to see that affairs and adultery or infidelity happens. You know, it's slow and it is progressive and it progressively builds from something that's casual into something that is more intense in Syria. So it is important for us to also understand why, you know, and that's something that is important to come to the root source of why this happens. However, it does not condone the act at all. It does not condone the fact that someone is being adulterous, but we still need to figure out what is it. Because it's only when we begin to see the reasons are we begin to do we begin to understand how is it that we can prevent it. Right. So some of the reasons why people fall and I think a lot of times why people fall into this this kind of a sin is number one is as a result of just feeling that their emotional needs aren't met. Or there could be a sense of abandonment or a sense of rejection, just feeling that, you know, your spouse is in good enough to meet your needs. Or there may be actual struggles happening within the relationship that is depleting on the emotional tank of the couple. So a lot of times it is because there are emotional hurts or there are certain needs that are that have gone unmet or there are certain expectations. That have not been fulfilled or there is some form of a pain or a trauma within the marriage that has not been resolved and that continues to stand a sense of unforgiveness continues to stand. And as a result, you know, that begins to be a sharing of these issues with someone else. Some of the other reasons could be, you know, just falling back into those those earlier affections or earlier relationships which have not been cut off or which have not been dealt with at all. You know, maybe those those fantasies that the people have had about their teenage crushes, you know, just generally become alive and and they rebuild a connection and then then begins this the slow fade back again. So what we do see is that anytime people are at emotional needs or when there are emotional gaps or lacunae, that's when they become most vulnerable to to an affair. Because let's understand I think let's be real and know that as humans, we, we have a need to be loved a need to be cared for need to be accepted need to feel secure. And when it is not found in these intimate relationships. And, or when you know the focus is so much on that and not on the actual the source of who is God, and that begins you know people begin to look out onto other sources. So, so usually it is that emotional need that causes people to be vulnerable to these affairs. There are other reasons such as, you know, sometimes it may be people just living with very poor moral values, and willing to just compromise on those those values and we also do see that among Christians or believers, you know, who may be attending church who may be reading the word who may be, you know, tongue talking, but yet may not or you know they may be, they may be thinking of how good God's word is but then has not really, it hasn't really set into their heart where their commitment to God and his word is poor, or a commitment to the family or commitment to, to what God's word says. So those, those kind of reasons where the standards, but there are no moral standards that they keep up to. Sometimes also for those who have a low tolerance to, to stepping into sin also, you know, who may not consider this as sin but may consider this as something that is a not really understanding their sexuality is something that God has given them and God would like them to keep it preserved and sacred, you know, and is, and is in an understanding that it can be explored. I mean, I have seen people like that with where they feel that sexuality is very personal and it is something that can be explored even though they may be believers. The other reasons, yes, is a sense of entitlement that may come because of where they are positioned or the kind of power they hold or the influence that they hold, and they just seek for some kind of novelty or excitement and you know, something new to come about. So no matter what the, the, the, the reasons are, you know, we need to look back and understand that it is something that causes a marriage devastation. It definitely causes a deterioration in the way marriage was meant to be. Scripture also, okay, can I stop here for two minutes and just take any questions here. If not, I will go on. All right. Okay, so scripture also talks about. Yeah, is there someone with a question. Thank you. Sorry, I can't hear you slightly louder. Yes, go on. Yes, go on. The first scripture we read from 2016 to 2022, it says that the vows are toward God. So when people, when people are getting married, are they supposed to say vows to God instead of each other or do we, oh, the way we do it is wrong because now we say vows to each other, the husband to say vows to the wife and wife to the husband. But here it says the vows you say to God. Some clarity. Thank you. Okay. All right. So, so I, the vows are being said in the presence. So you're making a vow in the presence of God to him as well as to your spouse that you promise to take your vowing in the presence of God. So you're making that covenant relationship. You're making that covenant relationship with your spouse in the presence of God. So he is witness to it. So when he's witnessed to it, he's, you're also saying, God, you are witness to this vow that I'm making to my, to my partner, to my spouse. So it is something that you, you do like, like a promise that you, you are making a covenant promise that you're making to your spouse in the presence of God. So he is the biggest witness over there. So he stands as witness in bringing this vow to fruition. I hope that I answered that, Mangi. Yes, it does. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. All right. So scripture going on. Scripture talks about what are some of the things that we need to take caution about. So there are, there are a couple of words of caution we see in the next, you know, a couple of scriptures that we, that we see. One of the examples that we, that we have, we can take from is King David. We see how David, you know, was, was, was a person who loved God. He was a man who, who, you know, it says he was a man after God's own heart. And we see his journey from being a shepherd boy to be someone who was, who was being pursued to, to be killed, to someone who, who got onto the throne of, of, of it as a king. Right. And who continues to be someone who's being referred to it as Jesus's line. Right. So we see how David accomplished so many things for himself as a king. And if you look through scripture, it talks about a lot of victories that he had as a king. He had a lot of victories. There were, there were the Ammonites, there were the Edomites, there were the Philistines and there were chunks of people and armies that he fought against. Okay. And, and he was in, in his time was a time of great military success. And you see how in scripture it actually shows of how God made him victorious. If God was with him wherever he went, God, you know, helped and God showed and we see that throughout. However, when, when we look at the time just before David fell into sin, we read in Samuel 11 verse one, and I'm just taking that, just, just that verse. It says, when that time of year came around again, the anniversary of the Ammonite aggression, David dispatched Joab and his fighting men of Israel in full force to destroy the Ammonites for good. They laid siege to rubber, but David stayed in Jerusalem. Okay. And I want to bring two points over here. One is that this was a time where David was at the greatest time of his success. And we see often that in a time of heightened success is often when we do not, we do not keep ourselves guarded. That's a time either at the time of success or at the time of crisis or, or, or, or a difficult affliction are times when we don't, we are most vulnerable at these points of times. And this is this, it is during this time that we may see that our, you know, our understanding is for our, our, you know, we are emotionally either, you know, too, too excited or emotionally too depressed. And as a result, you know, our judgment gets, gets poor. And there is where there are wrong choices that we tend to make. And we fall into something that we may normally not do when, when we are okay. And those defenses are down. And we often get into times of difficulty and trouble. The second point that I want to bring about here is it says, you know, when the time of year came around again, you know, when people went for war, what was David doing? David stayed back. He stayed back in Jerusalem. So I think there's an additional understanding here is when you are called, when you know that you're called to do something, you know, go and show that you're doing it and don't stay back, because, you know, he probably just wanted to relax and have a good time. So when there are certain responsibilities, when he should have been actually out for war, he would have probably been in the wrong place. So keeping ourselves on guard in these specific areas of how we need to ensure that we keep our guard, hold our defenses up at times of crisis or at times of success, and also being in the places where God has, has asked us to be. And I want to take this as an example. You know, often maybe it's a party, right, that you know that you shouldn't be going into probably because, you know, the kind of people who are there or the kind of situation that they may, it may be an office get together or things like that, or it may be something that, you know, there are just three, four people going. You understand that it may not be really right to be there. It says, you know, be careful. It says when David, he was supposed to go and he was lurking around on his status and this, and that's what actually ensued. So being on guard of these two things, the other scripture that it, that we bring about again, which is, which is in Proverbs 5.1 to 23. It's a long portion of scripture. I'm not going to get into it, but I just want to highlight one verse, which is verse 20. It says, why would you trade enduring intimacies for cheap thrills with the whore for dallians with the promise quiz strangers. So, you know, if you can just take some time to read those 23 verses, it highlights to it, it brings about a comparison. It says, when you have something that is lasting, why would you go into something that is a cheap thrill, and that which is momentary, and that which can get you all ruined and dead, right? So it talks, it gives the difference saying that your intimacy with your own spouse, that enduring intimacy, the person that you married is a youth. You know, that she is like a fresh flowing fountain and from her is where, you know, you get all your thrill or your satisfaction as against something that is a cheap thrill. So it says, why do you want to trade that? Why would you want to trade something that is momentary for something that you already have? So it's like, you know, you're telling your child, you're saying, you know, if you don't eat this one piece of chocolate here by the time it's night, you'll get a whole bar, right? It's similar to that. Why would you want to give up something that is so lovely and so precious for something that will give you a cheap thrill for a couple of moments, that it can get you into a whole lot of trouble. So scripture talks about that is that nothing, nothing, nothing else can take the place of the satisfaction that you have within marriage. And it gives that kind of a warning, even though it may look thrilling, it may look momentary, it may look pleasurable. Why is it that you would want to do that? And, you know, looking through that, it says, debt is the reward of an undisciplined life that's in verse 23. Your foolish decisions trap you in a dead end. So it says, these cheap thrills will finally trap you, will finally put you to a place of debt and then to a place of debt. That is the only course of action that a cheap thrill can do for you. So scripture is extremely clear about that. The next couple of verses in Proverbs 6, 23 to 35 tells you what are the consequences of adultery, what happens in adultery. So maybe I would someone like to read that. I'm on page 147, Proverbs 6, 23 to 35. Would somebody quickly read that please? Anybody? Sure, Sam, go ahead. For sound advice is a beacon. Good teaching is a light. Moral discipline is a life pass. They'll protect you from wanton women from the seductive talk of some temptress. Don't lustfully fantasize on her beauty, nor be taken in by her bedroom eyes. You can buy an hour with a hole for a loaf of bread, but a wanton woman may well eat you alive. Can you build a fire in your lap and not burn your pants? Can you walk barefoot on hot coals and not get blisters? It's the same when you have sex with your neighbor's wife. Touch her and you'll pay for it. No excuses. Hunger is no excuse for a thief to steal. When he's caught, he has to pay back, even if he has to put his whole house in the hawk. Udillty is a brainless act, soul-destroying, self-destructive. Expect a bloody nose, a black eye, and a reputation ruined for good. For jealousy, detonates rage in a cheated husband. While for revenge, you won't make allowance less. Nothing you say or pay will make it all right. Neither bribes nor reason will satisfy him. Thank you, Sam. I think this version really gives it such meaning and it tells you that getting into adultery, it talks of three adjectives. It says it's a brainless act. It destroys your soul and it is self-destructive. It says expect strife, expect that you are going to be beaten up. Maybe not all times physically beaten up, but we have seen that that also takes place. But it kills the reputation, it kills trust, it kills relationships. It says how the cheated husband detonates rage. There is jealousy that detonates that rage in a cheated husband who looks for revenge in a very strong way. It says nothing that you do can make it right. There is any time that somebody enters into it, the consequences can be extremely severe. It may seem exciting, but the consequences are there. Like it says, there are certain cause and effect relationships. It says that in verse 27 and 28, can you build a fire in your lap and not burn your pants? Can you walk barefoot on hot coals and not get blisters? Impossible. Those things will happen. So these consequences, adultery has a cause and effect relationship. You do something, it will come up with some kind of a reaction or a response. So as part of this, even as we have discussed this, when we are looking at the seductress, we are also saying that not just women, but even men be on guard. But there are certain words of caution that we would like to just bring up on women. And the couple of scriptures that it brings about here is in Proverbs 12.4, which it says, a good wife is her husband's pride and joy. But a wife who brings shame on her husband is like the cancer in his bones. So it talks about how scripture is showing us how women also, we can take the essence from here is saying women, how is it that we can be on guard? So one thing that it says here is a good wife is the joy, is the pride of her husband. So someone, a wife who is loving, who is caring, who is careful is a pride to her husband. But someone who brings shame is like a cancer, right? And we know what cancer does. It eats, it breaks, and the foolishness of a wife can bring about a destruction in home, destruction about everything around them. It's also a caution for women to stay on guard in the way that to be careful, to be aware about what the pull is around. Because there are times that there are going to be people who are waiting to violate or waiting to look for those vulnerable people who will fall into that trap. Another part of a woman's defense or protection is also in the way that they appear or the attire that they put up. And we see that again in scriptures of 1 Timothy 2, 9 to 10 and 1 Peter 3, 1 to 6 and that's something that you could also read. And I'll just highlight one or two verses. It's in 1 Peter 3 verses 3. It says, you should not use outward aids to make yourselves beautiful, such as the way you fix your hair or the jewelry you put on or the dress you wear. Instead, your beauty should consist of your true inner self, the ageless beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of the greatest value in God's sight. Now, this does not mean two things. It does not mean that it's wrong to groom yourself or dress up or to use jewelry. It does not mean that it or neither does it mean that by doing so, you are creating a sense of attraction. It's just asking you to be on guard that what to understand in reality that a man is driven by a stimulus, visual stimulus. So it is important for a woman to keep herself adequately well dressed and well covered so that it doesn't create any sense of an issue. So to being able to protect yourself so that you guard yourself. So these are the principles that scripture brings about of how each one of us could be on guard. When you look at the advertisements around, a lot of advertisements have a showcase of women being either scantily, or scantily dressed. Why? Because that seems appealing to in the advertising field. That's the only way that someone would be hooked on and to buy a certain product. So it is important to stay on guard. These are different cautions that are given to both men and to women on being cautious of the way that they handle or work themselves. All right. Do we have any questions? I'm sorry, we've moved four minutes into class. If not, we could come back in 10 minutes after the break. All right. On my clock, it shows 10.54. We will be back at 11.04.

I'm based out of Tampa, Florida And I sell final expense and life insurance primarily a person nation has been an incredible experience thus far You know literally a life-changing experience. I mean if you're on the verge of quitting there, you know Just feeling down in the dumps. I mean first things first you got a you got to have positive self-talk I know that can be difficult Especially if you're struggling but you know get into an event like this and listen into a guy like Charlie Or a guy like coach Burt someone who's super motivational and can just lay out You know this is what you need to do in order to succeed and then on top of that the best part about this is You get to meet so many people that you can partner up within this business that are more than willing to help and a lot of times That's all it takes is you know just being partnered up with the right people I was talking to Cody last night. I said, you know your retreat was unreal This is like your retreat on steroids You get to come to this place and meet so many people who are so successful and you just get to pick their brains and get All these nuggets to add to to your repertoire. I would just describe it as a massive gathering of The most hungry ambitious successful monsters in one room and Sometimes that's all it really takes to to really you know go north with your business That's what it was for me partner up with Cody and Landon and from there, you know my business has has Has grown enormously compared to what it was and it's just because I wasn't partnered up with the right people And I would have never met them if I never came to stuff like this or to the retreat And so you really got to get yourself out there and network and and build relationships with people I can't wait to come back I was I've been talking to guys from this conference And I'm like how cool would it be if there was a conference like this every weekend to just hang out with people like you It's so difficult to find like-minded people especially in this business where all most of us are independent So you know when you're working your business You're kind of alone and to be able to surround yourself with like-minded people who you can you know You can add a social event talk about business You don't really get to do that at home most of the time at least for me So I'm coming to this thing forever. I can't wait and you know I wish that there was something like this literally every weekend or like once a month now, so it's unbelievable

Hello Earth citizens! My name is Courtney and I'm a Brain Education Instructor in Boston. Today I'd like to show you a 10-minute routine to welcome the energy of summer. At the summer solstice, the sun is at its highest and brightest point, representing a time of maximum light. The light from the sun helps our bodies to generate vitamin D, which has been known to have a positive effect on our mental health. In today's video, we will practice letting go of anything dark or heavy to awaken the light within. You'll want to be in a space where you can sit and lie down so grab any props that will allow you to do so comfortably. We will be focusing on three chakras, the sixth chakra in our brain, the fourth chakra in our heart, and the second chakra in our core. Make a fist with one hand and using the knuckle side, tap all around your forehead to stimulate your sixth chakra. Chakras are energy and energy moves through light, sound, and vibration. You can tap your eyebrows, temples, your hairline, wherever it feels good to tap. As you tap, repeat after me. I let go of anything dark or heavy from my sixth chakra and welcome light in its place. Hold on to that intention and start to make a gentle ah sound as you exhale. Feel the vibration from your tapping and from your sound. Now interlace your fingers and use the thumb side to tap all around your chest. You can tap right on your sternum or under your collar bones and stay in the places it feels good to tap. Repeat after me. I let go of anything dark or heavy from my fourth chakra and welcome light in its place. Hold on to your intention and start to make a gentle ah sound as you exhale. Feel the vibration from your tapping and from your sound. Then make two fists and using the pinky side, tap your lower abdomen beneath your navel. You can move a little left or right. See if there's any spots that feel tender or blocked. And breathe out. Repeat after me. I let go of anything dark or heavy from my second chakra and welcome light in its place. Hold on to your intention and make a gentle ah sound as you exhale. Feel the vibration from your tapping and from your sound. Slowly stop and lie down comfortably, grabbing any support for your neck or back. Open your arms out to your sides. Lower your shoulders and take a deep breath, relaxing your chest. Then shake your legs in and out and turn your head slowly side to side. Breathe and with the support of the earth beneath you, visualize a beautiful bright sun above you. Imagine clouds are clearing in the sky and rays of light from the sun are shining down to your body. Bright warm light cascading down unconditionally, drying any dampness, warming anything cold, and shining a light into any dark areas of your body. Let this light from the sun brighten your entire being. Gently stop moving and feel your body. Breathe in, breathe out. In your mind's eye, see the sun hovering above you and visualize rays of light beaming down to your brain, any darkness disseminating and pressure releasing from your head and brain. Affirm to yourself. I awaken the light within my sixth chakra. Now bring your focus to your chest and visualize rays of light from the sun beaming down, melting away tension, dissolving any dark energy from within your chest. Feel the areas around your heart softening and opening, affirming to yourself. I awaken the light within my fourth chakra. Now focus on your lower abdomen, imagining rays of sunshine sparkling down, filling and warming your core. Any darkness dissipates and visualize your center being filled with bright, vital energy from the sun. Affirm to yourself. I awaken the light within my second chakra. Now feel your whole body, sunlight flickering and sparkling down, touching every part of your skin, penetrating every muscle, cell and tissue. Your body becomes a solar panel, receiving and recharging with energy from the sun. When you're ready, bend your knees one at a time, bring your hands to your lower abdomen and breathe into your belly. Let it expand as you inhale, relax as you exhale, breathe in, expand, breathe out, release, breathe in, breathe out. Slowly turn to one side and carefully sit up. I hope this video helped you to embrace the energy of summer. Remember to go outside, appreciate nature and most importantly, have fun. Thank you so much for meditating with me today.

la présentation de Ariane Cuny sur le rachitisme. On va donc rentrer dans le vif du sujet du rachitisme. Dans les rachitismes d'ordre génétique, ce sont des rachitismes qui sont dues à des défauts d'action de la vitamine D ou à des hippophosphatémiques. Soit des problèmes dues à des hippophosphatémiques isolés comme le rachitisme hippophosphatémique, soit dans des tubulopathies. Je ne sais pas si vous l'avez en entier, il n'y a peut-être pas mal. Il y a peut-être un PDF. Il est en PDF là, c'est bon, mais il n'est pas entier. Il n'y a pas de... Il faudrait le mettre en power point. C'est comment je fais défiler la diapo renoncée. Bon, pour les principaux signes cliniques de rachitisme, il y a des signes qui sont communs au rachitisme, tous les rachitismes, et puis en fonction des rachitismes d'ordre plutôt génétique, il y a des particularités. En fonction de l'âge aussi, les signes cliniques ne sont pas les mêmes. Chez le bébé, le nourrisson, on peut avoir un retard de fermeture de la fontanelle. On peut avoir un craniotabaisse chez le nourrisson. Après, quand il grandisse, apparaissent des déformations des membres inférieurs. Le plus souvent, on peut avoir des génuvalgones, symétriques ou asymétriques. On note des élargissements au niveau des métaphyses, notamment au niveau des poignées, des chevilles, des articulations sternocostales, donc le fameux appelé costale sur la radio de Torax. Après, quand l'enfant est en âge de marché, on peut avoir des douleurs qui apparaissent à la marche, notamment à la station de bout, et voir un retard à la marche qui peut être dû aux déformations, mais aussi aux douleurs qui entraînent la position de bout. Une diminution de la force musculaire, une fatigabilité, c'est des enfants qui, quelles que soient le type de rachitisme, parfois ne marchent pas à deux ans, et les parents disent qu'ils ont un hérimètre de marche très limité. Retard de croissance, ça fait partie aussi des signes cliniques. Les pathologies dentaires, donc on en parlera dans une autre présentation, mais on peut avoir des retards d'éruption dentaire, des anomalies de l'ennemail, et dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique, des absètes dentaires à répétition sur des dents saines. On a les signes cliniques qui sont liés à l'hypocasémie elle-même, donc les convulsions dont parlait M. Mallet, les parastésies, les crampes, les irritabilités, et dans le rachitisme... Donc là je ne peux pas avoir la diapo... Non, c'est du coup. Dans le rachitisme vitaminaux résistant, on a des particularités en fonction des pathologies génétiques, alors il y en a où plus rare dans des pathologies liées à la vitamine D où on peut avoir des allopécies, et puis du surpoids... Du surpoids dans le rachitisme vitaminaux résistant, les pathologies dentaires on en reparlera, et puis les pathologies hausseuses qui sont associées aux malformations hausseuses du rachitisme, comme l'écraniosténose, le syndrome de carri, qu'on ne retrouve pas dans le rachitisme carantiel. Alors là je vous ai mis quelques photos pour vous rendre compte ce qu'on peut voir. Sur la photo de gauche, le petit garçon, c'était un rachitisme carantiel, c'était un enfant d'origine syrienne qui n'avait pas du tout de vitamine D, qui ne sortait pas du tout de chez lui parce que le contexte faisait qu'il était très peu au soleil, et donc c'est sur un bilan de déformation des membres inférieurs que le diagnostic a été fait. Le petit garçon au milieu, c'est un petit garçon qui est pour le coup né en France, suivi en France, c'est un rachitisme carantiel, et lui alors c'est des choses qu'on peut voir, mais c'est un enfant qui n'avait plus de vitamine D pour des questions bêtes, c'est que l'ordonnance était terminée, il en avait eu pendant quelques mois, trois ou six mois je ne sais plus exactement, il était suivi par le médecin traitant, je crois par différents médecins, et puis chacun pensait que l'autre avait renouvelé l'ordonnance, et la question n'avait pas été posée, la maman ne savait pas l'importance de la vitamine D, et donc c'est un nourrisson qui avait arrêté sa supplémentation en vitamine D, il était en plus à l'été, donc il n'avait pas de lait enrichi en vitamine D, et sur une peau foncée, vous voyez la maman en fait, elle avait chez cet enfant consulté aux urgences pour EDEM des poignées, donc ce n'était pas des EDEM, je ne sais pas si vous voyez sur l'image, mais on voit qu'il avait un élargissement des métaphises aux poignées assez notables, aux genoux aussi, des déformations des membres inférieurs, et qui se corrige avec la croissance du traitement. À droite, c'est une petite fille qui a un rachitisme génétique, donc elle, le diagnostic, elle a été fait assez tard, puisqu'elle n'était pas en France, et donc elle a des déformations importantes, des membres inférieurs, des membres supérieurs, et puis une image pour illustrer les absèdes en terre, mais vous verrez plein d'autres images tout à l'heure. Alors, un petit topo quand même, un petit diapo pour rappeler le rôle de la vitamine D, pour comprendre ses actions. Donc, vous savez que la vitamine D, sa principale source, c'est la synthèse via l'effet des UV. Les apports extérieurs par l'alimentation sont moins importantes. Donc, la vitamine D subit une première hydroxylation liée au foie, qui la transforme en 25 vitamine D, et une deuxième hydroxylation au niveau du rein, qui la transforme en 125 vitamine D. Et cette 125 vitamine D, donc elle a une action au niveau du tube digestif, elle augmente l'absorption du calcium et du phosphore, et au niveau de l'os, où elle augmente la libération du calcium, donc augmente la résorption osseuse. Et elle a un effet aussi un peu moins important sur le rein, où elle augmente aussi la réabsorption du calcium et du phosphore. C'est une hormone qui va augmenter le calcium et le phosphore dans le sang. Donc, les signes biologiques du rachitisme. Alors, sur le topo, j'ai séparé en deux grandes catégories, donc le rachitisme caranciel, d'un côté, et dans les rachitismes génétiques, j'en ai choisi un le plus fréquent, donc le rachitisme hypophosphatémique lié à l'Hex. Donc, dans le rachitisme caranciel, donc on aura une augmentation importante des phosphatase alkalines qui peut aller jusqu'à plus de 3000, et la vitamine D, du coup, en général, indosable, et une para-tormone qui sera en réaction très élevée, parfois jusqu'à 300, 400. On a une calcémie le plus souvent qui est basse, puisqu'on a dit que la vitamine D augmente le calcium et le phosphore. Elle peut être à la limite de la normale, en fonction du moment de la découverte du rachitisme, mais en tout cas, la calcierie est toujours très basse. Le phosphore, il est soit normal, soit légèrement abaissé, en fonction du moment du diagnostic, mais beaucoup moins bas que dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique. Et là, un 25, dans ce contexte, un 25 vitamine D, elle ne sert pas vraiment en diagnostic, elle peut être normale basse, en fonction du moment où on fait le diagnostic. Alors, sur le schéma, là, c'est pour comprendre ce qui se passe dans le cas d'un rachitisme hypophosphatémique. Dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique, lia à l'X, on a dû à une mutation en général du gène Fex, qui est le principal gène muté. Cette mutation du gène Fex entraîne un défaut de clivage du FGF23. Ce FGF23, dans les hypophosphatémies lia à l'X, est donc trop élevé. Cette élévation du FGF23 entraîne une diminuction de l'action de la 1,25 vitamine D, et donc un défaut de production de la 1,25 vitamine D, et donc un défaut de réabsorption du phosphore, comme on avait vu tout à l'heure, et un défaut de production au niveau renal de la 1,25, et donc cette baisse de 1,25 vitamine D entraîne un hypophosphatémique. Dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique, les signes communs, c'est qu'on aura aussi une augmentation des phosphataises alcalines, on aura un phosphore très bas, avec en général des taux qui peuvent être à 0,7, 0,8, millimole par litre au diagnostic, avec une phosphaturie très élevée et inadaptée, et donc si on calcule le TRP, il est anormal, en général le taux de réabsorption du phosphore est inférieur à 85%. Le calcium est en général normal, ou normal bas. La pth est normale s'il n'y a pas de 400 vitamine D, alors après on peut avoir un rachitisme hypophosphatémique, qu'à en plus une 400 vitamine D, donc en fonction de son taux de vitamine D, on va avoir une pth plus ou moins normale. Le diagnostic, parfois la première consultation sur le premier bilan s'il y a une 400 vitamine D n'est pas toujours évident, donc on recharge les patients en vitamine D, on refait le bilan, et si les anomalies persistent, on sait qu'on n'est pas dans un rachitisme garantiel. Et par contre dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique, il y a un 25 vitamine D et elle a baissé. Donc pour mémoire, quels sont les taux de 25 vitamine D attendus, ou comment les analyser, donc en fonction de la norme de votre laboratoire, on va parler en anomol ou en anagramme. Donc on parle de déficits si on est en dessous de 20 nanogrammes par amel ou 50 nanomol, d'insuffisance si on est en dessous de 30 nanogrammes par amel ou de 75 nanomol, et un excess si on est au-dessus de 150. Mais en gros, donc un patient, il faut qu'il est en anagramme au-dessus de 30 nanogrammes par amel pour avoir des taux de vitamine D normal. Si, après des anomalies cliniques, vous faites un bilan phosphocalcique et vous suspectez un rachitisme hypophosphatémique, il faut toujours faire dans le bilan initial, un bilan tubulaire complet pour savoir si on est sur un hypophosphatémie avec hyperphosphaturie isolée, donc dans le cadre d'un rachitisme génétique par exemple, et différencier parce que les bilans biologiques peuvent être assez similaires sur le bilan phosphocalcique d'une tubulopathie où finalement on aura aussi des signes cliniques de rachitisme, des signes biologiques de rachitisme, mais il y aura en plus, il faut faire le ionogramme complet, sans éruinaire, des anomalies qui peuvent rentrer dans d'autres syndromes qu'il faut prendre en charge évidemment, plutôt par les néphrologues, syndromes de barterre, de dentes, mais qui peuvent se présenter pareil si on a des enfants qui n'avaient pas été explorés avant, qui parfois nous arrivent d'un pays étranger avec des gros retards de croissance et en fait avec des déformations aux seuses majeures, on peut penser à un rachitisme et finalement le diagnostic sera une tubulopathie, donc traité différemment. Alors, pour effectivement reparler des carences en vitamine D, donc en France, la supplémentation en vitamine D est utilisée depuis 1963 et c'est à partir de 1992, donc beaucoup plus tard qu'aux Etats-Unis, que les laies ont été enrichies en vitamine D. Donc effectivement, depuis que les laies sont supplémentées en vitamine D, comme disait Monsieur Malet tout à l'heure, il y a quand même une grosse diminution du taux de patients qui arrivent avec des rachitismes par carences en vitamine D, mais ils ne sont pas non plus complètement exceptionnels, donc il faut y penser chez des enfants qu'ont des facteurs de risques. Donc les facteurs de risques pour la carence en vitamine D chez l'enfant sont le manque d'exposition solaire, effectivement l'utilisation qui est souhaitée de crème solaire mais qui diminue l'impact des UV, en fonction de la région on habite, de la pollution, plus on vit dans une ville polluée, plus on a de risques de carences en vitamine D. L'alimentation est quand même dans nos pays plutôt pauvres en vitamine D. Donc la vitamine D se trouve surtout dans les poissons gras. Donc avant, il y avait une substitution par l'huile de foie de morue qui est remplacée par les ampoules de vitamine D qui c'est un petit peu plus sympa à boire, mais donc dans les poissons comme le saumon, le ton, la morue, le macro, les sardines à l'huile aussi je vous ai mis les unités pour vous rendre compte, mais voilà les gens qui consomment les oeufs dans les champignons aussi il y a pas mal de vitamine D et puis un petit peu dans le fromage et dans le lait. Si vous avez aussi une peau pigmentée, vous avez une diminution de l'action des UV. Si c'est un enfant qui est au lait de mer, du coup allaitement exclusif il n'a pas le enrichissement des laits tout faits, certains médicaments qui diminuent l'absorption de la vitamine D, du phosphore, du calcium, l'obésité aussi par stockage de la vitamine D dans les tissus graisseux et donc si vous avez un enfant qui a plusieurs facteurs de risque et des déformations, il faut vraiment faire un bilan phosphocalci qu'avec dosage de sa vitamine D et en tout cas en prévention lui prescrire de la vitamine D et puis s'il a des signes cliniques faire un bilan. Alors, on va parler aussi un petit peu des grands principes du traitement, donc dans le rachitisme carantiel donc par carance en vitamine D, donc en fonction de la calcémie, il faut corriger les apports en calcium, donc si il y a une hypo-calcémie sévère ou des convulsions du calcium intravéneux et si il n'y a pas de hypo-calcémie sévère avec un ECG qui est normal et pas de signes cliniques graves, on fait une supplémentation perrosse avec 500mg à 1000mg de calcium en fonction de l'âge de l'enfant il faut continuer les supplémentations perrosse jusqu'à normalisation de la calcierie et des phosphatazalcalines et après s'assurer que l'enfant a des bons apports en calcium et si il a des apports en calcium alimentaires qui sont suffisants avec la calcierie et corrigé, on peut arrêter la supplémentation en calcium donc il faut effectivement recharger l'enfant en vitamine D donc une première dose de charge de vitamine D 100000 unités par exemple permet de corriger assez vite l'accarence en vitamine D et après de renouveler les apports en vitamine D tous les 2 à 3 mois en fonction de la normalisation du bilan et après évidemment poursuivre la supplémentation en vitamine D et pendant toute la croissance si l'enfant a des facteurs de risque donc dans un rachitisme carantiel, le calcium et le phosphore nous vont se corriger assez vite en quelques jours bilan et semaine après le calcium et phosphore sont normalisés l'APTA je vais mettre un petit peu plus de temps à se normaliser plusieurs semaines mais elle va baisser assez rapidement sur la 300, 200, 100 100, 200 le taux de vitamine D se corrige tout de suite allez phosphatase alkaline c'est ce qui va mettre plus de temps 3 à 6 mois pour se normaliser mais pareil elle baisse vite donc ça nous permet dès les premiers bilans de savoir si on est dans un rachitisme épophosphatémique ou un rachitisme carantiel s'il y avait un doute et par contre les déformations hausseuses elles vont se corriger progressivement avec la croissance de l'enfant en 2 à 3 ans en fonction des déformations et en tout cas on voit qu'elles vont elles vont se corriger donc il faut pas se jeter sur de la chirurgie chez un enfant en croissance puisque les déformations vont se corriger progressivement alors tout à l'heure on apparaît de la vitamine D là c'est pour vous ayez une idée des apports en calcium alors conseillez chez l'enfant en gros 500 mg chez le petit enfant autour de 1000 dans l'enfance entre 7 et 10 ans et plutôt 1200 mg par jour à la puberté donc les aliments riches en calcium vous savez que c'est les produits laitiers le lait, les gaourdes le fromage plus le fromage et la pâte dure plus il est riche en calcium pour avoir une idée facile à retenir et puis les deux grandes autres sources pour ceux qui consomment peu de produits laitiers c'est les légumes verbes mais bon faut quand même en consommer pas mal et puis les amandes aussi qui contiennent un peu de vitamine de calcium pour la les recommandations de prescriptions de vitamine D en France donc selon la société française de pédiatrie donc les recommandations publiées en 2012 donc déjà pour limiter le rachitisme néonatal toutes les femmes enceintes sauf contre indication particulière prennent une ampoule de vitamine D au dernier trimestre de la grossesse pour le nourrisson qui est allé été exclusivement il faut une prescription de 1200 unités de vitamine D par jour si l'enfant chez l'enfant de moins de 18 mois qui a un lait enrichi en vitamine D donc il a besoin d'une supplémentation de vitamine D un peu moins de 600 à 800 unités par jour et si c'est un enfant qui a c'est pas conseillé mais qui est au lait de vache et qui a un nourrisson il faut lui mettre un petit peu plus de vitamine D comme pour le lait de mer 1000 à 1200 après les recommandations chez l'enfant plus grand donc entre les moments où il y a une croissance qui est plus importante c'est là qu'on a besoin de vitamine D pour faire rentrer son calcium dans l'os donc jusqu'à 5 ans et au moment du pic de croissance pubertaire donc 2 doses de charge une en automne une en hiver en général novembre et février par contre si on a un enfant qui présente des facteurs de risques de 400 vitamine D qu'on a vu tout à l'heure une peau foncée qui vit en ville dans un endroit un peu pollué qui va pas beaucoup au soleil de poissons qui n'a pas beaucoup d'apport en vitamine D il faut maintenir pendant toute la croissance une supplémentation avec des doses au moins trimestrielles l'hiver et globalement chez l'enfant en croissance on peut l'hiver chez tout le monde continuer la supplémentation en vitamine D les seules contradications sont plutôt d'heures néphrologiques donc voilà si l'enfant a pas de soucis de santé particulier l'hiver en tout cas en Normandie peut-être plus qu'à Marseille mais on peut maintenir la supplémentation en vitamine D l'hiver donc là c'était pour le rachitisme carantiel pour le traitement du rachitisme hypophosphatémique pour comprendre le traitement classique ou conventionnel dans le rachitisme hypophosphatémique donc on a dit qu'il y a un excès de FGF23 et cet excès de FGF23 entraîne une diminution de la production de 1,25 vitamine D et une hypophosphatémie par fuite tubulaire du phosphore donc le but du traitement conventionnel c'est d'essayer de corriger le défaut de synthèse de vitamine D et corriger la fuite de phosphore et donc le but du traitement c'est d'améliorer la croissance de l'enfant diminuer les déformations hausseuses et diminuer les troubles dentaires associés le problème c'est que ce traitement si on donne trop de 1,25 vitamine D on entraîne une hypercalcierie et donc des risques de néfrogalcinose donc ça fait partie de la surveillance on surveille la calcierie et donc on peut augmenter les taux de vitamine D tant que la calcierie est normale et on surveille aussi en échographie les reins pour s'assurer qu'il n'y a pas de néfrogalcinose qui apparaît et inversement si on donne trop de phosphore on entraîne une hyperparateroïdie secondaire et donc on fait on managent en surveillant toujours bien les bilans de l'enfant pour être au mieux mais sans entraîner de complications donc le traitement conventionné dans les formes peu sévères il a des résultats satisfaisant mais il faut bien le manager le problème comme disait tout à l'heure c'est que le phosphore c'est pas bon il a une élimination très rapide donc il faut le prendre en général au moins 4, enfin chez le petit enfant 4 fois par jour et après l'égal ce sera au moins 3 fois par jour c'est difficile de le prendre parce que c'est pas bon après on peut conseiller aussi aux enfants qui ont du mal à le prendre il faut pas le mélanger avec des produits laitiers parce que sinon ça fait une précipite le calcium et le phosphore ensemble et il n'est pas absorbé mais par exemple de le mettre dans une bouteille avec un peu de jus de fruits ou de grenadine dans une gourde et qui le boivent régulièrement dans la journée le but c'est vraiment d'essayer d'avoir de phosphore le plus régulier dans la journée et donc parfois il y a des enfants qui arrivent mieux à le prendre comme ça et puis il y a d'autres qui arrivent malgré le goût à le prendre en plusieurs prises en une fois donc le traitement conventionnel donc il consiste à amener du phosphore donc la sous forme de phosphoneurose qui est la principale molécule utilisée donc pendant toute la phase de la croissance dès que le diagnostic est fait s'il y a un diagnostic familial avec un parent atteint on traite l'enfant dès les premiers mois de vie donc comme on disait il faut le fractionner entre 4 prises par jour avec les apports en phosphore sous forme de phosphoneurose on ne normalise pas la phosphoremi donc c'est pas le but si on a une phosphoremi normale en général c'est qu'on importe trop de phosphore et on a un risque d'apparateroïdie et donc en général on essaye de s'approcher du 1 millimole par litre mais c'est pas l'objectif du traitement c'est pas la normalisation du phosphore et donc sur le tableau en bas vous avez les doses de phosphore en fonction de l'âge donc dans la petite enfance donc on est entre 55 et 70 milligrammes kilo jours de phosphore en période de croissance lente entre 5 ans à le début de la puberté plutôt autour de 45-60 et à la puberté entre 35 et 50 milligrammes kilo jours donc ça vous les retrouverez tout ça effectivement dans le PNDS qui est sorti en 2018 qui reprend toute la prise en charge des hippophosphatémiéalix pour l'administration de 125 vitamines D qu'on utilise principalement le 1 alpha donc le 1 alpha on peut prendre en une prise par jour et donc pareil les doses dépendent de l'âge de l'enfant et notamment de sa vitesse de croissance donc entre 1 et 2 microgrammes par jour donc quand ils sont petits sous forme de gouttes et quand ils sont plus grands en comprimé entre plutôt 1,5 à 3 à la puberté toujours en surveillant bien la calcierie et puis pour tous les enfants on donne 25 vitamines D donc sous forme du védos ou de zimadé pour avoir des concentrations circulantes de vitamines D normal donc là j'ai mis entre 20 d'ailleurs c'est une erreur on sait entre 30 et 80 plutôt nanogrammes par ml pour avoir des taux normaux et pas faire monter la pth voilà et donc un diaporama pour vous montrer donc le nouveau traitement du rachitisme hippophosphatémique donc on a depuis maintenant il est pas encore il est presque sorti en routine on peut dire là maintenant puisque les premiers essais cliniques qui avaient été fait chez l'enfant ont montré le bénéfice de ce nouveau traitement qui s'appelle le bureau d'humab un traitement commercial de crise vita et donc c'est un traitement assez révolutionnaire puisqu'il va aller finalement être un traitement à la source de la pathologie puisqu'on avait dit avec le traitement conventionnel on fait finalement du traitement symptomatique on essaye de corriger la perte de phosphore et le défaut de synthèse de vitamines D et on a dit donc sur le schéma du haut donc on reprend on dit que dans le phosphatémique il y a dit qu'on a un excès de FGF23 qui est la cause de tous les symptômes et donc le bureau d'humab c'est un anticorps anti FGF23 et donc avec ce traitement on va aller bloquer l'excès de fabrication de FGF23 qui est la source de toute la symptomatologie et donc on va pouvoir corriger le défaut de synthèse de vitamines D et donc corriger la perte de phosphore donc sous ce traitement on a à la fois une amélioration des paramètres cliniques des déformations hausseuses du retard de croissance alors là sur la croissance les premières études sont pas assez longues pour avoir des tailles finales et vraiment dire combien on peut gagner en déviation standard avec le traitement on a des améliorations sur les atteintes dentaires on a des améliorations biologiques et radiologiques alors pour l'instant ce traitement il est réservé aux formes sévères de la maladie donc ils sont soit réfractaires au traitement conventionnel c'est à dire des enfants qui continuent à s'aggraver sur le plan clinique, radiologique, dentaire ou biologiques on n'arrive pas à corriger le rachitisme biologique, les phosphatases alkalines notamment avec le traitement conventionnel ou des enfants qui ont des formes compliquées symptomatiques craniosténose, cari des formations osseuses majeures qui entraînent des handicap donc peuvent avoir accès maintenant au bureau du MAB donc les objectifs du traitement sont un petit peu différents parce qu'avec ce traitement pour le coup on arrive à corriger l'apathémie donc on a des phosphatémiques qui reviennent dans la norme et on obtient des synthèses de 125 de formes actives de la vitamine D normal avec ce traitement avec l'avenir de la prise en charge donc probablement bientôt on pourra traiter tous les enfants on espère avec un rachitisme hypophosphatémiques avec ce traitement qui est un traitement par injection sous-cutanée c'est une injection tous les 15 jours et donc pour les enfants qui ont connu parfois pendant des années la prise de Ralfa est surtout de phosphore en quatre prises par jour avec son goût détestable et qui passe à l'injection tous les 15 jours même si c'est une injection c'est de la sous-cute pour eux c'est le jour et la nuit et donc en conclusion ce qu'on peut dire c'est que le rachitisme carentiel de l'enfant a quasiment disparu grâce à la supplémentation à la fois des laies enrichies et de la prise de vitamine D en médicaments mais il n'est pas complexé un traitement exceptionnel il faut y penser devant des syncliniques évoquateurs dans une population à risque et toujours chez un patient en tout cas chez un nourrisson vérifié quand même qu'il a une prescription de vitamine D et que c'est pris parce que c'est vraiment trop bête qu'un enfant n'ait pas de vitamine D arrive avec des formations majeures voire en convulsion parce qu'on n'a pas vérifié sa prescription de vitamine D et du coup insister les parents sur l'importance de la vitamine D pour qu'eux aussi pensent à demander le renouvellement de la prescription même s'ils consultent pour une gastro pour autre chose et que l'enfant ait bien une supplémentation au moins jusqu'à 2 ans en vitamine D donc pour les rachitismes génétiques le rachitisme Epophosphatémiliaix est donc le plus fréquent avec le traitement conventionnel on a quand même des bons résultats avec des corrections, des déformations hausseuses et une amélioration quand même de la croissance et dans les formes qui sont bien traitées et pendant toute la croissance on évite quand même la chirurgie chez la plupart des patients et ceux qui restent déformés en fin de croissance c'est là qu'effectivement on essaie si possible de tenir jusqu'à la fin de la croissance des enfants pour les opérer et corriger leurs déformations aux ceux si on peut tenir jusque là et donc un nouveau traitement que l'on peut dire révolutionnaire bureau summable les antichorontiers FJ23 qui sont vraiment un progrès majeur dans la prise en charge de ces patients pour l'instant dans les formes sévères mais probablement bientôt chez tous les patients

Chow gas disease is a major tropical infection caused by the parasite trapanosoma cruzi. It primarily affects impoverished populations living in areas where the vector insects are present. Research into the disease has revealed its complex nature with multiple transmission routes and a variety of clinical manifestations. Despite advances in understanding, there remain significant gaps in knowledge and further research is needed to develop effective control measures. This review provides an overview of the main aspects of chow gas disease, including transmission, diagnosis, treatment and prevention. This article was authored by Jose A. de Fuentes Vicente, Nancy G. Santos Hernandez, Christian Ruiz Castillos, and others.

Live from New York City, it's theCUBE at Big Data NYC 2014. Brought to you by headline sponsor, Juan Disco, with support from EMC. Mark Logic and TerraData. Now, here is your host, Dave Vellante. Welcome back to Big Data NYC, everybody. You're watching theCUBE. theCUBE is our live mobile studio. We go out to the events. We extract the signal from the noise. You gain some dollars here as the CTO of Wendisco. Long-time CUBE guest and CUBE alum. You gain good to see you again. Thanks for coming on. Thanks for having me, Dave. So we were talking offline here. You've been shuttling back and forth from the Javits Center. What's the vibe like down there? What's the traffic like? What's the conversation going on? Traffic's a mess. New York's a little bit harder to get around these days. But the crowd at the Javits is really good. A lot of customers with active deployments to production, which is a vast difference from a year ago. We are hearing concerns from customers that all relate to taking their applications to full-on, 100% uptime available solutions. Yeah, when we first started broadcasting at Hadoop World in 2010, five years ago, we had our fifth year celebration of Hadoop World last night. And the crowd was the T-shirt crowd, nose rings, you know that whole deal. My understanding is it's creeping up closer to my age. You're seeing the enterprise.it folks and the business people. So we get to embrace Hadoop, aren't you? Absolutely. We're seeing the enterprise.it folks and the business folks put different values on specific features. And that's changing the nature of how Hadoop evolves because the vendors are listening. I mean, make no mistake about it. Both Hortonworks, Cloudera, and other distro vendors are all tuned to what the customers are saying. So the feature set that Hadoop is evolving is improving, I think, for the better. Yeah, and innovation's happening quickly. You know, the book on open source has always been, it's great, it's wonderful, kumbaya, but it's really slow to develop. And it's risky and all those things. You've heard them. It seems to be changing. It seems like the pace of innovation is quite rapid given all this investment that's going into. I agree. I mean, the cathedral and the bazaar was written in the day of Linux, and today's open source world is vastly different, partly because of the money that's going into the Hadoop companies, and partly because the Hadoop companies have taken a different approach. It's not GPL, it's Apache licensed, so it's more of a free-for-all environment. I think the old model for open source may not necessarily apply anymore. The Hadoop is a new generation, a new evolution of open source software. You're saying that the GPL was more of a free-for-all, and now it's more structured than the Apaches providing the leadership. Quite the reverse, actually. I'm saying that. I just understood that. What did you mean by that? By that, I mean, the GPL still forces you to contribute everything you do back to the community while the Apache license does not. And the original premise was that the Apache license would cost people to take the code and not put things back. But that hasn't happened. Every company in the Apache ecosystem desperately wants to put their source code back, wants to put their source and offerings back into core Hadoop. So it's turned into this free-for-all environment where open source companies are competing with proprietary companies to improve Hadoop in different directions. But effectively, isn't it not achieving the same result? Or sorry, couldn't have GPL have achieved the same result? That's what you're saying? It's, um. Or was it people were afraid to jump in because of the GPL? The GPL scared a lot of people off, whereas the Apache license has opened it up. Proprietary companies look at it and go, we can take the stuff and build our stuff and sell the software. And a year or two down the line, realize without community support, it's really not worth much. So because the GPL concept was not only free of charge, but free to do what you want, as long as you get back and what you're saying is the Apache license says free of charge, free to do what you want with it, and you don't have to give it back anybody says, but we're going to give back anyway. We have to give it back because our customers are telling us if it's not supported by the community, we won't pick it up. Next thing you know, your idea of taking from the open source community and not giving back has changed and you want to be accepted by the community. So this is all new and different in the open source world. And it's resulted in an explosion of innovation and an acceleration of innovation, right? So if your strategy is to try to stay ahead of the open source curve, it's harder and harder to do that. That's correct. Now, you guys, part of your strategy is to stay ahead of the open source curve. So give us the update on what's going on when disco, active-active, global distributed namespace, you know, 24 by seven. What's the, what's been the uptake of what you guys are doing and you've been working on some interesting projects. Let's get into that. Right. So the uptake has been phenomenal. The financial customers just love us because they believe that this is the only way to really comply with regulation. And having 100% active-active with full utilization of all resources is just very exciting. That's our current product. We have a new exciting product that's coming out from the labs that I run. This is exciting because at the core of our company, we are a replication company, strongly consistent replication. So we looked at it and we've seen a lot of customers with different Hadoop systems struggling to integrate all of those. The product we've come up with is a unification product, a single namespace across different distributions running in different data centers. You can point your data in just pipeline at this new namespace. You can run your analytics against it. It's strongly consistent. So everywhere in the world, you can have Hortonworks distro in one data center, Cloudera in another one, MapR, or even Isilon and other shared storage systems. If you do an LS, you'll find the same files. If you read the data, you'll find the same data. You can run applications against all of those MapReduce and Hive. We came up with this mostly from conversations with customers who firmly decided that they are not going to settle on one distribution. We're supporting multiple distributions for different applications, different reasons, and we found that unification in this manner provides a lot of value for them. That's interesting. I got a lot of questions. I want to start with just your, get your insight on the diversity of Hadoop distributions. Jeff Kelly yesterday said, listen, with all due respect to everybody outside of these three, Hortonworks, Cloudera and MapR are really the big three that are gaining momentum in the marketplace. And there are others, but his sort of prediction was that the market's going to consolidate around those three and then maybe there's going to be further consolidation. How much difference and diversity is there between those three distros and how does that affect your development? So between Cloudera and Hortonworks, there's a little bit of difference, not a whole lot. They both tend to leapfrog each other across minor release versions. MapR, of course, is a completely different proprietary file system, but it has its place in this ecosystem and there are some applications that run well in each of these platforms. Customers are not standardizing on one. They're picking what works best for that specific application. I think a little bit of this has to do with the fact that the application programming paradigm has changed. You're not writing SQL, not necessarily writing SQL applications anymore. You're doing MapReduce processing, Hive, a number of things that sort of look like SQL, but not always. So that opens up this whole new way of doing things and you don't necessarily want to say this is not like picking Oracle and writing to Oracle SQL. There are a different set of applications and people are happy to go with different solutions that work best. So you have, I mean, obviously have limited R&D budget. Certainly, you don't have unlimited R&D budget. So you have to prioritize and if I heard you correctly, you got the big three or you can support other distros like Pivotal. We do have support for all the distros. We support Cloudera, Hortonworks, Pivotal, IBM. We're certified against all of these. The MapR product is a separate file system so we don't support that in our nonstop HDFS product with this new upcoming unified file system. We will support that as well and we're also working with shared storage vendors to offer support for that. So that's just, I was just, it's brute force hard work. It's engineering on each of those to make sure that- It's a certain level of work but the core intellectual property actually buys us a lot. The replication engine hasn't changed not a whole lot from nonstop HDFS and I have a crew of engineers that are just amazing with this stuff now because we've taken the time to build nonstop HDFS. That gives us a huge advantage. We can go in and build a unification system without too much effort and the reality is the application API for talking to Hadoop systems is relatively simple. It doesn't support the complex POSIX API so we got a little bit of relief from that. Well, I think this is incredibly powerful conceptually because I've seen over my career so many situations where a company who was solving a really hard problem or was in a niche had to pick a winner. And if they picked the wrong winner, if they picked OS2, they were doomed. It sounds obvious now but at the time, well IBM is doing OS2 and this little little Microsoft has taken Windows. Maybe I'll put my resources there. Oops, I'm going to bet my company on Lotus Notes. Okay, I mean so many, I've asked VMS that just didn't pan out. You're able to hedge your bets. True. And now it sounds like it's a function of both great engineering and the nature of the state of programming today. That is true. It's a function of both and the deep expertise we have in the strong consistent replication helps. And customers are really good to see the product and that just electrifies my engineers. My guys come back with really good ideas for doing it. So we're excited. Well, it de-risks it for the customer. Absolutely. So use whatever distro you want. We're not going to try to push you in one way. We're distribution agnostic. Different distros are going to have horses for courses. You know, obviously map bar is good for this. Cloudera for that, et cetera, et cetera. We can handle it all. So that's going to be a very compelling value proposition. It's a compelling value proposition. We've had customers come back to us and say we want to use this for upgrading from one version of the same distro to another. And sure, that works really well. And it's a use case that's low risk for them. They go in, they keep their existing cluster, operating as normal, point some ingest pipelines at this new file system layer that sits on top of it. The replication takes over and at another data center or maybe another cluster in the same data center, they now have this new version of that distribution. So that's a use case that came out of the blue to us and it's perfectly acceptable. Sorry, final speaker, you're saying within the same distro. Within the same distro, CDH44 to CDH51 or HTTP, earlier to HTTP21. Well, I want to explore this a little bit. So this is a big deal. Because normally, when you're doing some kind of major software upgrade, you've got to have planned downtime. And I've seen it before, I can think of several clients that we had that said, oh no, the vendor said it's OK. And then something happened and they were down for days. In one case, it was really weeks before they got back to where they needed to be. And the reason was they had to sort of half operate and they couldn't keep up with the changes. And it was just a real disaster. True disaster. And I don't take that term lightly. So pre this solution, how would an upgrade go and take us through how it worked while it just did. But compare the two. So in a normal upgrade process, going from a minor rev to a minor rev, it's usually just supported by Cloud Era Manager. They've done a good job of that. And you go through and rotate through the servers upgrading them. A major rev upgrade is a major problem. Sometimes there's data migration involved. They've tried very hard. Both the distro vendors have tried very hard to keep that minimal. But it's a disruptive change. And you can expect a few days downtime at least. What we bring to the table is keep your existing applications operational on your existing cluster. If you happen to be looking at a DR cluster or if you already have a DR cluster, then we'll install a new version on that. And we'll install our bridge file system on top of both of these and start replicating from one to the other. Now you can try porting your applications. The little known secret or dirty little secret is that not all applications just run from one version of a distro to another version. Because sometimes the APIs change. Sometimes there are subtle semantic differences. So you try your new applications on the new cluster. Once you've got that satisfactorily running and you know that the new system is fully up, you can decommission nodes from your old cluster and perhaps upgrade that to the new version. So now you have a bridged cluster, both running the same rev, the newest rev of your distro. Okay, so let's go through that. So in your solution, when I'm going to the new version of the major upgrade, if something goes wrong, what happens? In our solution, remember the existing cluster remains intact, it's untouched. Applications are running on it. We have installed a layer in front of that for certain ingest and perhaps start replicating over time. Now if you're sitting in just the next rack, then that replication takes a very short time. When the data is replicated, you have the same data with strong consistency in a new cluster running the latest version of that distro. So now the next job is to take your applications and try running on those. 99% may work out of the box. One or two things will break. We all know how these things go. You fix those, maybe it takes a couple of days, three days. Your data is remaining consistent. Remember that as your data is pouring into your old cluster, it's also getting replicated into the new cluster. When you've got the applications running satisfactorily, you have the option of running both simultaneously for a week or so or cut the old one out and switch to the new one. And without any downtime, you now have a new distro and applications. Okay, and so in the old world, you would have to, what, try to anticipate the things that were gonna go wrong with the applications or try to test it? Correct. And then try to predict how long you were going to be down and hope that the big risk there is like you said, you lose data consistency. Correct. So even in your scenario, if it takes longer, if there are some unknown blind spots, if it takes a week or two weeks, your data is still consistent. The data is consistent. Now I will admit, you need more resources for doing it this way because you basically have two copies of the data at one point. But if you mean compute resources. Right. It's a small price to pay though. Absolutely. Relative to the cost of downtime. Right, and most often companies operating at this level of availability will have a disaster recovery cluster that's probably lying idle. What we've done is converted that disaster recovery cluster into an active part of your workload. I mean, again, I would think if a customer is saying, well, if their big objection is I got to buy more servers or more storage, then the value of this feature is not enough to offset that. But for the guys who understand the importance of this and the cost of downtime is so high, it's a no brainer. It's a no brainer. And we're feeling all sorts of requests from people for this. It's an alpha stage and we just showed it to a few people, but the word has spread and now we're having a hard time keeping sales guys out of mind. So now, what do you call this a deep unification? So, David, our CEO, came up with the name One Hadoop and I'm not supposed to say that, but we're still mulling the name and I like that. But you're on theCUBE, so that's great. There's only a thousand people watching today. So that's interesting. So where did this requirement come from? Can you talk about that a little bit? So, this requirement, so the idea is mine and I've been talking to customers. I work very closely with customers. I believe that's an important part of my job. And I can't mention names of a few customers, but the original idea came from conversations with some of these customers and the struggles they were experiencing and the realization that it is never going to be a single Hadoop in every, there's never going to be a red hat of the Hadoop world. Let's put it that way. And we jumped on the opportunity to bridge all these disparate distros. Yeah, well, the second person this week has said that Abhimeda said the same thing yesterday on the panel. He said there will be no red hat of a Duke for so many reasons. One is that the Hadoop is going to be much bigger than Linux. And the second is, you know, back in the day, people pretty much in red hat had competition, but the big whales kind of left them alone. If anything, actually IBM helped them by injecting a billion dollars into the Linux ecosystem. And today I think people see the opportunity. The question we have, and I don't know if you have any thoughts on it, is, you know, how many of the distro vendors will actually survive? My feeling is that the market can support three distros. I agree. I've seen distinct applications that really work well on each of these distros. And customers are fanatical about that. At the end of the day, you can sell them a storage layer, you can sell them a compute layer. All that doesn't matter if the application doesn't work well. And given that each of these applications have unique attributes, and people are developing those, I mean, there's a lot of energy going into that. I think the ecosystem can easily support three distros. What I love is the passion around the business model. So you got MapR, actually, you can make money off of its distro. Hortonworks not trying to make money off its distro and Cloudera trying to make its distro sticky so it can move up the stack. And the three dramatically different business models. Again, I can see all three of them having legs and working. I mean, if you've got passion around that strategy and you've got people who believe in it and customers that are loyal, there's no reason why you can't make money at all three of those. No, and I've met some folks from traditional shared storage industry and they have a handle on this as well. They're getting some applications to run better on their systems than some Hadoop applications to run better on their systems than anybody else. And remember, they have longstanding relationships with a lot of these customers. They can walk in and in two days have one of these applications running well. So there's more to it than, and it is going to be much bigger than Linux and there's definitely room for a number of players in the industry. And I can't say what the best business model is. I mean, I could see, okay, if I'm a VC, I want to invest in Hortonworks because they're going for massive volume and they've got the software economics game. I could see, Intel obviously put a lot of money into Cloudera, but if I'm Intel, why not? I'm going to build an ecosystem around that and this is this huge opportunity. I can see that having a viable model and then I look at MapR, okay, maybe it's smaller but I see a potential for great profit there to the extent that they can stay ahead. I mean, I guess the argument against MapR is again, the one we were having is can they stay ahead of the open source world? And that's an interesting question and one that you probably think about all the time. We think about that a lot. We do have products that mitigate some of this risk. One Hadoop is an example. We really help customers live with multiple distros so that product has legs beyond anything we do. On the other hand, we are a proprietary enhancement to Hadoop and we add value that nobody else can. So much like MapR, we're seeing customer traction precisely because of that. At the end of the day, to users, does it really matter that it's open source versus closed source? All that matters is it must work and must be well supported. No, no, people will pay up for a proprietary function. I mean, everybody in this world is open. Who's not open? I mean, Oracle open. Oracle's the least open of them all, but Oracle's, they can point to a lot of things. I mean, Java, it's open. It's open, yeah, so. So today's world is open. It's a spectrum and it's a moving target. So people will pay up for a proprietary function. There's no question about that. I mean, sometimes in the community, you get passion around, well, we're more open than you are and you're bad, we're good. That's all nonsense. I mean, the customers don't care about that. They care about solving business problems as you well know. Financial services is interesting. I was talking to David Richards about this. They seem to really be leading the charge again here. I mean, you're biased because this world, the financial services world really needs what you have. But nonetheless, it seems to have started in financial services, obviously web giants, but in the commercial enterprise. It seems like financial services is leading the charge again, whereas just a few short years ago, everybody thought the banking system was dead. Here we are again, leading the tech charge. That's very true and you are correct. I meet a lot of IT folks from the top banks and the top financial institutions. They're smart, savvy people. They may have been totally oracle people five, six years ago, but today they know more about Hadoop applications than most people I've seen. And I had a discussion with this gentleman from one of the big credit card companies. He was talking about how somebody walked up to him in a bar and said, you guys are ex, you're old, and we have the new way to exchange money and do business. And he happened to mention that they had supplied a lot of the technology that went into the wallet software offered by one of the big new, very catchy vendors. I'm trying hard to not mention names, but the fact is that the financial industry is very savvy these days and I'm somewhat convinced and this is totally my own theory that within months, maybe years, there will be credit card companies that accept Bitcoin for payment, perhaps, or it's going to become a much more dramatically evolved world and the technology they're using is all Hadoop. Almost all of it is Hadoop based. Well, I'm a believer in digital currency. It's interesting when I hear Warren Buffett on CNBC saying, stay away from it, it's never going to happen, it's going to die, and then you get guys like Mark Andreessen on the other end talking about how it's much more than a digital currency. It's a platform, it's an ecosystem evolving around it. Kind of esoteric terms, but we've seen these wild cards like open source, you know, Warren Buffett might say open source, how can you make any money? You don't ever do open source and then you look what happens around the innovation, not that he ever said that, he didn't, but I'm just using it as sort of a metaphor for digital currency and the naysayers and the supporters. But it's interesting to see digital currency riding on top of this, we call, the others call the digital fabric, and it's going to be interesting to see how the financial services firms transform. The money business has always been the smartest people, they're sharks, and they kind of have a tendency to figure it out, and then they do some stupid things, and then they shake out, but they have a knack of rebirth. Yes, yes. So it's going to be fun to watch. But well, Jagain, thanks very much for coming on theCUBE. Again, always a pleasure riffing with you on industry trends. I'll give you the last thought, just perceptions of Hadoop world this year, sort of where we're at in Hadoop, some of the things that are exciting you, whatever you want to close with. I want to close with this. I did a talk on global Hadoop yesterday. I've done similar talks a year ago. Yesterday's talk was standing room only. All the questions were from customers who were experiencing the pain of trying to do things with this CPE, and they want a real solution to that. These are production problems. So the notion that Hadoop is moving out of the labs and environments where POCs are done into real production is very true. All the customers you see at the conference today are customers doing production applications. So that's wonderful to see. Awesome, you know, Rich Napolitano was on earlier. He said, if you want the truth, you got to talk to either engineering or sales. That's where the truth lives. So we love having you on, because we get the truth. So thanks again. Thanks Dave, wonderful to meet you. Great to see you. All right, keep it right there, but we'll be back right after this world. This is theCUBE, we're live from Big Data NYC.

Okay so our context is the proof of the Riemann mapping theorem okay and what we have done is in the last few lectures we have looked at hyperbolic geometry okay now there is one more technical detour that we have to take to be able to complete the proof of the Riemann mapping theorem and that has got to do with the so called complex version of the Arzila Ascoli theorem and the so called Montel theorem okay. So that is what I am going to discuss now right so basically the Arzila Ascoli theorem and the Montel theorem they are all theorems which you know guarantee that you know given a family of functions okay on a compact domain okay that any sequence in that family has a uniformly convergent subsequence okay so let me tell you the general idea the general idea is you see I have some a family of functions okay a family of functions defined on a domain alright and let us assume that the family is defined on I mean for example if you are thinking of the simplest case of real valued functions okay then you assume that if the real valued functions are all defined on a closed and bounded interval okay which is a compact subset compact connected subset of the real line right or more generally if you are thinking of functions on the plane okay then you think of functions which are defined on a domain on the plane okay and in fact you assume at least to begin with you assume that you they are all they also extend continuously to the boundary of the domain that the domain is bounded and it is you know if the domain is bounded and then you add its boundary it becomes compact okay so you have a family of complex functions complex valued functions defined on the on the domain of course all functions you we are interested in are all certainly continuous okay then the question is if you take a sequence of functions from this family okay to expect that the sequence will converge any sequence of functions will converges too much okay to expect that any given sequence of functions will converges too much okay but what you can always expect is that there is at least a subsequence which converges okay so the idea of the Arzela Ascoli theorem and you know Montel theorem is that under good conditions okay you can always ensure that you give me any sequence of functions in a family satisfying of course certain conditions on a compact set okay it will always have a subsequence which converges uniformly okay so the so the general point is that you want you have a family of functions okay and the domain effectively where you are studying it is compact alright or in the or if you are looking at for example analytic functions you are looking at analytic functions the property that I mean you look at the analytic functions on close discs in your domain which are compact closed and bounded discs okay and the result that you want is that you want to you want that given any sequence from this family there is a subsequence which converges uniformly okay. Now why is this so important it is important because you see the moment you say there is a subsequence which converges it tells you that at least there is a limit function for a subsequence though the whole the given sequence of functions need not converge but at least a subsequence converges but the fact that the converges uniform tells you that all the properties of the functions will also carry over to the limit for example if you are looking at a uniform convergent a uniform limit of analytic functions it continues to be analytic a uniform limit of continuous functions continues to be continuous. So you just do not want you know just convergence of functions that does not help because if you just take ordinary convergence of functions it can go wrong in the sense that the limit function may not have the good properties of original functions you can have a sequence of continuous functions which converges to a limit function which is not continuous you might have the limit function may lose continuity okay but you do not want such things to happen. So there is at least when you are studying convergence of functions it is natural that you at least demand uniform convergence so that all good properties pass on to the limiting function okay. So this are the both the Arzela-Ascoli theorem and the Montel theorem they basically situations which guarantee that you can always find a subsequence of uniformly convergent functions okay a subsequence that converges uniformly a subsequence of functions that converges uniformly okay. So that is the general idea now let us get to the technicalities okay so you know so here is a so here is the so here is the situation let script F be a collection a family or collection so let me do the following thing let me put the title as Arzela-Ascoli and Montel theorem. So these are very technical theorems but they are reasonably easy to prove and they are very powerful okay. So let F be a family of family or collection of functions defined on defined and continuous and complex value on a compact subset in complex plane okay. So I have a compact subset of the complex plane namely it is both closed and bounded and I have a collection of functions defined on points of this capital E taking values in complex numbers the condition is that to begin with I am assuming they are all continuous okay and they are complex value right. Now we all know what the definition of continuity at a point is the definition of continuity at a point is that you know given an Epsilon okay the function values at the point the function values in a neighbourhood of the point can be brought to within an Epsilon value within an Epsilon distance for the function value at that point if you choose points in a delta neighbourhood of the given point okay that is continuity at a given point and so let me just write that down recall that F a function in this family is continuous at a point the set if given Epsilon greater than 0 there exist delta greater than 0 such that whenever the distance between z and z0 is less than delta and of course z is point of E then the distance between Fz and Fz0 can be made less than Epsilon okay. So this is just ordinary Epsilon delta definition of continuity of the functions small f in this family at the point z0 okay now you see what you should notice is that you know delta this delta depends on of course delta depends on Epsilon okay and this delta also depends on the point z0 and it also depends on the point f it also depends on the function f okay so delta delta is actually delta of f, f, z0, Epsilon okay certainly if you change for you know if you keep the function f the same if you keep the Epsilon the same but if you change z0 the delta will change okay that is the dependence of delta on z0 okay and of course if you change Epsilon or f also the delta will change okay so this delta depends on these three things alright now you see suppose that you know you are able to find a delta that is independent of this f okay suppose you are able to find delta that does not depend on f okay that means the same delta for the given Epsilon the same delta will work for every f okay for a given Epsilon and given z0 the same delta will work for every f small f in the family script f if that happens we say that the family is equicontinuous at the point z0 okay so if delta is independent of f if a delta independent of f and depending only on Ez0 and Epsilon can be found for every Epsilon greater than 0 we say that the family f is equicontinuous at z0 so this is the motion of equicontinuity okay. So for all the functions in the family you know you are saying that the function values can be made the function values near the function the function values at points near to the point z0 can be made to within an Epsilon distance of the function value at z0 if you choose a sufficiently small neighborhood of the point z0 but the same neighborhood works for all functions okay it works uniformly for all functions right. So you know so the point is that you are able to find there is no dependence on the particular member of the small f of the family script f that is the whole point of course it is clear that if a family is equicontinuous at a point then it should be continuous at that point okay because equicontinuity is stronger than ordinary continuity alright and the point about this equicontinuity is that you know this is one of the ingredients one of the hypothesis that in the context of the Arzela Ascoli theorem or the Montel theorems it will ensure that you know you can always extract a subsequence of functions which converges uniformly okay so this is equicontinuity and so that is one of the technical ingredients so you know if you take any two points if you take any two points in this disk okay then the distance between them is certainly less than 2 delta alright and the distance between the function values by the triangle inequality is less than 2 Epsilon alright so what this also tells you is that it tells you that it tells you that each f will be kind of uniformly continuous on each of these disks okay so but anyway see the other thing that one wants to worry about is so called uniform boundedness so we say script f is uniformly bounded on E if of course you know in all these in this argument I have not I have still not used the compactness of the subset E alright but I could have defined it for any subset E of the complex plane right these definitions make sense for any subset E of the complex plane but the point is that the compactness is one of the ingredients for the theorem okay so of course in all these things I need not have assumed E is compact but I am keeping E compact in view of these theorems right so we say f is uniformly bounded on E if mod f of z is less than or equal to m for all z in E and for all small f in script f so this is uniform boundedness okay so of course boundedness of a function complex value function means that it is modulus is bounded okay so for all values of the function you take the modulus all these moduli they are bounded above by some positive real number okay you are able to find some positive real number m such that mod f z is always less than or equal to m so this m is a bound for f for mod f okay and you want the same bound to work for every small f in script f if that happens you say the family is uniformly bounded on E okay so you have so you have these two facts and now comes the now I can state the Arzela Ascoli theorem of course I am stating only one version of the theorem which is the version that we need but there are versions of the theorem for defined on compact housed of spaces with functions taking values in matrix spaces and so on and so forth there are very general versions okay but this is the version that we need okay that is the version that I am going to that I am defining that is the version that I am going to state and prove so here is the theorem let script f be a family of continuous complex valued functions on a compact subset E of the complex plane okay suppose f is uniformly bounded on E okay then the following are equivalent number 1 f is equicontinuous at each point of E number 2 every sequence f sub n has a uniformly convergence of sequence so this is the version of the Arzela Ascoli theorem that we need okay so you have so again let me explain you have this compact subset E of the complex plane so this compactness is very very important alright and you have script f a family of continuous functions defined on this compact set E and taking complex values alright and you put the condition that this family is uniformly bounded on E okay so there is a positive m which is an upper bound for the modulus of fz for all ez in E and for all f in script f okay then the Arzela Ascoli theorem actually tells you that the condition for being able to extract a uniformly convergent subsequence from any sequence in the family is equivalent to just demanding that the family is equicontinuous at every point of E okay so equic for a family of when you have uniformly when you have uniform boundedness okay then equicontinuity is equivalent to being able to extract a uniformly convergent subsequence okay this is how you can state it elegantly if you are having functions defined on a compact set okay which are uniformly bounded if you have a family of functions which are defined on a compact set and suppose the family is uniformly bounded then what is the condition that is equivalent to being able to extract a uniformly convergent subsequence from any given sequence of functions the condition is simply the equicontinuity of the family at each point of the compact set okay so this is the Arzela Ascoli theorem right and what I am going to do is I am going to next go on to the Montel theorem which I need to which I need to use in the proof of the Riemann mapping theorem but the Montel theorem is but to prove the Montel theorem I need only the implication that 1 implies 2 I do not need the other part of the equivalence which is 2 implies 1 so what I will do is I will just indicate how to prove 1 implies 2 and 2 implies 1 is a reasonably easy exercise okay and in fact even the proof that 1 implies 2 just parallels the proof that you would have seen in the real case in a first course in real analysis okay so let me do that so proof of 1 implies 2 so you see so you know this is a this is a standard technique of diagonalization that is used to prove this implication of the Arzela Ascoli theorem even in the even for real valued functions defined on you know a close bounded interval on the real line okay the same proof will work okay. So how does 1 begin so what is given is you are given a compact subset E in the complex plane you are given a family script F of continuous complex valued functions on E and you are given that this family is uniformly bounded so there is this constant M which bounds the modulus of the function values at each point of E and for every function in the family okay uniformly. Uniformly means the same constant works regardless of the point and regardless of the function okay and what is given to me is that it is equicontinuity is given to me okay so what you do is you make use of the fact you make use of the fact that if you if you you know on the real line if you take the rational numbers okay take the points that are rational that is countable and that is dense okay. So similarly if you take the plane which is just R2 okay if you take all the points with the rational coordinates then that is countable okay and it is also dense okay so this existence of a countable dense subset is what is used okay. So what you do is so you we do the following thing let E sub Q be the set of points of E with rational coordinates okay so of course you know here so in other words I am looking at points in the complex plane as points on points of R2 and when I say with rational coordinates I mean both the real and imaginary parts are rational okay so that is E sub Q is actually set of all X plus IY which are in E such that X and Y are rational okay then of course you know that then you know that E sub Q is countable okay and it is dense in E in Q in E because its closure will be its closure will be equal to E okay then E sub Q is countable and E sub Q closure will be E because E sub Q is just I mean E sub Q is just you know E intersection with Q cross Q, Q cross Q if you think of CS R cross R then the points in the complex plane namely complex numbers with rational coordinates will be Q cross Q and how do you get E Q you just get E Q by intersecting E with Q cross Q and you know subset of a countable set is countable you know Q is countable therefore Q cross Q is also countable alright and therefore a subset of a countable set is also countable therefore E sub Q is also countable okay and the rational numbers are dense and therefore E sub Q will be dense in E namely if you take the closure of E sub Q in the complex plane you will get back E right. So we need these facts right now the whole you see this is something of a mystery for example you know I mean these are all facts that you keep using all the time but if you really ponder over them a little deeply in a certain way then you are only perplexed for example you know rational numbers are countable okay which means that you know all the rational numbers can be put in a single sequence okay. So I can write rational numbers as a sequence X n okay and that is very that is something that you cannot imagine okay because given any rational number you are enumerating rational numbers in some order alright but then the usual order that you know of in the usual order that you know of on the real line you cannot tell what is the immediate next rational number to given national number simply because however close you go you can always find another rational number close to it okay. So you cannot say what is the next rational number but here is where you are using some you know very abstract set theory to say that the countability allows you to index and you know enumerate all the rational numbers okay. So this is a highly so it is a very abstract thing that you use alright but something that in practice you really cannot do it you cannot expect to do it right. So well so in some sense that will be connected to the axiom of choice okay which is which as you know is equivalent to the you know well ordering principle and zon's lemma and these are all and zon's lemma is not a lemma it is actually a result that is actually an axiom which you accept okay and you do not you cannot you cannot prove it alright only you can prove it only if you assume it is other equivalent forms namely zon's I mean nearly axiom of choice are the well ordering principle right. So these I mean this is the depth of abstraction that is involved but anyway we use it it is bread and butter when you do analysis okay. So you so therefore you know I write this eq of e sub q as z i as z n so I can do this okay n greater than I can do it okay so this is the really this is the really perplexing thing you write all the points in e you enumerate them alright and you do not I mean you write this completely existential you really do not know what z1 is or z2 it is all you know is that you can write all these points like this and that is used we will use that as you will see. So you write like this so this corresponds to what this corresponds to the fact that this is countable okay or it also corresponds to the fact that this is I mean it is countable and therefore you can order it using real numbers I mean you are using natural numbers therefore if you order it if you choose some ordering with respect to the natural numbers you will get a sequence and that is the sequence I am writing here okay. This is something very abstract right but what you will do is now what you do is you do the following thing you take and of course you know what I am supposed to do is I am supposed to take a sequence in the family and I am supposed to produce a subsequence which is which converges uniformly okay not just converges but I want it to converge uniformly right So start with a sequence fn in this family okay so consider so take the first point okay and apply fn to it okay consider this what will happen is since modulus of all these fellows is less than or equal to m these by the Bolsana Weierstrass theorem we have a convergent subsequence which we write as fn1 of z1 okay. So this is see fn of z1 is a sequence of complex numbers which is bounded so it has a convergent subsequence and call that convergent subsequence is fn1 of z1 okay so this fn1 is a subsequence of fn okay mind you fn1 is a subsequence from fn right. Now what you do is you repeat this process you repeat the process with z2 and with the functions in the subsequence okay now consider what you do is you take this fn1 take the subsequence apply it to z2 and let n1 vary from 1 to infinity. So I get a sequence of function values at z2 okay again the same argument works again modulus of fn1 of z2 is less than or equal to m will tell you and the Bolsana Weierstrass theorem will tell you that there exists a subsequence fn2 of z2 of fn1 of z2 which converges. So you see in the first step I am applying all the members of the sequence to the point z1 and from that I get a subsequence of functions in the second step what I do is I forget z the point z1 but I only look at the subsequence fn1 and apply z2 to it and again apply the Bolsana Weierstrass theorem and use uniform boundedness to show that there is a further subsequence of the subsequence okay which converges when at z2 okay and notice see fn1 already converges at z1 and fn2 is a subsequence of fn1 therefore fn2 will not only converges at z2 it will also converges at z1 okay so note that fn2 of z1 also converges okay so now you go by induction okay by induction we get for every n greater than or equal to 1 a subsequence so let me use m or k a subsequence fnk of fnk-1 such that fnk of zj converges for j less than or equal to k okay so you so you know so this is this is what is happening right so you know if you if you write it you know pictorially so you have fn1 which is with the property that fn1 converges at z1 alright therefore you know if you write it I will get f I can write as fi1 of z1 fi2 of z2 and so let me write fi3 of z3 I mean of z1 again and so on so this is this is convergence at z1 alright then I get so this is sequence fn1 then for this I get a subsequence fn2 okay this fn2 is subsequence of fn1 that means all the indices that occur here they are among the indices among these indices but still I write it only in this order so now I will write it as fj1 of z2 fj2 of z2 fj3 of z2 and so on and this will converge at both z1 and z2 okay and mind you the j1, j2, j3 is a subsequence of i1, i2, i3 and i1, i2, i3 is subsequence of the natural numbers okay then if I again repeat the process once more I get fn3 I get this subsequence which is further subsequence of this and if I write the indices as fk1 of z3 fk2 of z3 fk3 of z3 and so on then I get the subsequence of this subsequence which converges at z1, z2 and z3 okay I get this situation like this right and now what you do is that you know you take the diagonal sequence of functions namely you take this, you take this, you take this, you take this, you take the diagonal, this is called diagonalization you take the diagonal subsequence okay so consider the subsequence so you know I will give it a special symbol I will call it capital F, fl is actually lth member of fnl this is how it is defined so f1 is first member of fn1, f2 is second member of fn2, f3 is third member of fn3 that is how you are defining it okay so this guy here is f1, this guy here is f2, this guy here is f3 and that is how it goes so this diagonal sequence you are looking at okay. Now the beautiful thing about this diagonal sequence is that it will converge at every point of eq okay so that is the I mean that is the power of the diagonalization process you are able to extract this see after all you want a sequence which converges on all of e okay but then you know because everything is continuous okay if you can get uniform continuity on a dense open subset of e okay then you will get everything alright and what is a dense open subset of e it is this open subset and what helps in the diagonalization process is the fact that this is countable okay that is what allows you to enumerate and then extract this diagonal alright. So what is the point so the fact that is nice is that fn converges or f I think I used fl tl greater than equal to 1 converges on eq so this is the beautiful fact why because you see why is that true because you see f what is fl fc fl is actually lth member of fnl where if you take this sequence fn l converges at z1 etc of tzl okay see if see this is the lth member of fnl alright and the but if you look at fnl that sequence converges at all points up to zl alright and therefore you know if you give me any point of eq that point will be because of this enumeration okay which is very abstract as I told you any point of eq is some zl any point of eq is some zl and if but you know fnl the sequence fnl will converge at zl alright therefore all ft is for t greater than l which after all come from subsequence of this will also converge at zl therefore this itself will converge at zl okay so let me write that if z belongs to eq then z is equal to zl and since fnl of tzl converges we have that the subsequence ft of zl t greater than or equal to l converges okay and you know for a sequence of functions to converge at a point it is enough it converges beyond certain stage so what I am saying is that this sequence fl will you know converge at the point zl at least after the stage l alright and this is so this will prove this fact alright so the moral of the story is you are able to extract a subsequence which converges point wise on this set of rational points okay now from this and the eq continuity we can show that you have that this sequence this diagonal sequence that you have extracted the convergence is actually uniform and that will give the proof of the theorem okay so I will continue with that in the next talk.

Unizor - US Law - Prosperity and Wealth
Unizor - US Law - Prosperity and Wealth by Jesse Brogan Prosperity is in ownership. It is not just a personal concept, but a national one. Where our political leadership has acted in sovereignty, it has reduced our prosperity to see to other needs. These other needs are not the needs of We-the-People. If we would be a prosperous people, it will involve limiting government to the purposes for which government was empowered, as written into the preamble to our Constitution. It is only as we come together that we can achieve self-government; and our prosperity is a value that can bring We-the-People to agreement.

The question is what it means to be wealthy or prosperous. The common answer you hear is in terms of money, in having it or having access to it. For the most part, prosperity is considered highly desirable, something worthy of the effort to attain. Those who are wealthy seem to have more options provided to them. They are accepted as being more attractive than others who have no wealth to offer. They are considered more influential than others. But what does it really mean to be wealthy? The answer is not an opportunities or influence, though these are obviously impacted by having wealth. The answer is in freedom. The answer is in having options in what you choose to do. The answer is in denying others the ability to direct your actions or tell you what you must do. When we are talking wealth and prosperity, the answer is in economic choices and opportunities that there are fewer things denied to you for lack of sufficient resources. There are choices for what a wealthy person can do that those who lack wealth cannot do. The concept of implementation is ownership. It is having a right to use and direct the use of our many types of property. If you own a car, you probably have a set of keys to give access and nobody is legally able to seize upon it and take it away from you without committing a public crime. The law protects ownership. Even our Constitution forbids public leaders to use their authority to interfere with citizen ownership. It takes a specific order, a warrant, to authorize any interference with a citizen's property. Ownership is that right to be secure in one's houses, papers, effects, with papers and effects addressing things of wealth. A citizen who is employed earns money or credit and that becomes his or her property. A citizen who invests in stocks and bonds has a paper that witnesses to his ownership in the investment. A citizen with cash owns that money and his or her ownership is protected by law. A citizen who has a bank account has ownership in the money that is held in a bank. A citizen who hangs a valuable picture on his wall owns the picture. All these are wealth. They are inherent in the value of property that is owned and they are protected by law from others acting as owners. Even a person's reputation with other people is considered property as something that has value. It is protected in our law from slanders of other people. All these are wealth. They are value that is owned. They are property rights that have value under our laws and contribute to prosperity. Wealth is the accumulation of value and prosperity is sufficient accumulation to have reasonable levels of choices in how that wealth is used and expended. Wealth is having uncommitted value. Wealth is in having options in when and where the citizen decides to expend or invest that value. Prosperity is having such uncommitted wealth that the options are many. Wealth is how people get to store value so that it is available to them for their prosperity. Wealth is desired as economic freedom and prosperity is in the choices available for the use of wealth that the citizen has in various ownership. In another sense we can address government taxes where the citizen is legally protected from others who might take away their wealth. Government leadership has taken upon itself a right to seize upon wealth, challenging the prosperity of its own people. Prosperity is economic freedom and a loss of this freedom is what we the people must suffer from excessive taxation. Real property is so severely taxed that it is difficult to address in its own value. It is more like property leased from the government with taxes as rent. The U.S. and our various units of government have reinstated a form of feudalism. Prosperity is having economic choices and taxing personal ownership of income and ownership of personal property works to limit the choices available, limiting any excess that might be directed to satisfy the wants and needs of citizens. And here is the challenge. Seizing upon the property of the common people is a way for a sovereign ruler to secure his or her wealth. It is forbidden to American citizens to seize property of another citizen under pain of criminal prosecution. The people cannot legally authorize their government to do what U.S. citizens cannot do. They most certainly cannot authorize their government to take criminal actions in their name. We do not have a government that has sovereignty over citizens. We have a sovereign people who have granted authorities to those who govern. The people could not grant the right to seize upon the wealth of their neighbors. It is a power that is beyond constitutional government over a sovereign people. Amending the Constitution to grant authority to commit crimes against the people does not authorize leaders to criminal behavior in the exercise of their public offices. As noted before, the U.S. government has not limited itself to granted authorities, but has acted in sovereignty. In many ways, it has become the government that is like to the English government against which the American colonists rebelled and from which they won their freedom. One major driver for American Revolution was open-end taxation. Taxation in spite of having no voice in the government that laid the taxes. Do we have a voice in government in laying of taxes? The answer is that the question of acceptance by the people has not even been raised. If the people in one congressional district or state decide that some tax is unacceptable, then they are likely to be three votes against it in Congress of over 400 leaders who do not represent them. Where taxes are set by majority of leader votes, consent to the government is not even a matter of the issue. But then we also know that the government needs funds to operate and to represent the people in its operations. If property is the wealth of the nation, then it makes sense to tax it in order to give the benefits of government to the people. There is a great deal of nonsense in this, but there is also a basis for a better understanding of wealth and government operation. Our U.S. government only exists to establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. In specific, securing the blessings of liberty is freedom and prosperity, the very things that modern government assaults. There was an initial agreement on the funding of government and it delegated the power to tax for set purposes to pay for the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States. This was no blanket authority to fund whatever Congress might vote to fund, nor is the welfare of the United States different than the welfare of we the people. As a performance professional, I have a practical rule for eliminating much of our government's excess funding. There is no valid public purpose to authorize spending where the people do not receive the benefit from the expenditure. The people are the public and if the people do not receive the benefit then neither does the public. As far as our constitutional government is concerned, we the people are the nation. The Department of Education should only be funded for services that the people receive and value. If the people do not receive and value some educational service, then it has no public value. The Environmental Protection Agency should only be funded where it provides services to the public. Can you hear this scream? This is for the welfare of the nation and the answer is that if the people do not receive the value in what it does, then it has no public purpose. The environment is not a separate party in interest in our government. Organizations such as the Office of Personnel Management and the Department of Justice should be terminated as they provide nothing to the public. They perform internal government processes and should be administrative offices in the groups they exist to serve as those provide value to the public. Groups that give service to the public would have their funding limited to the services they provide where the people receive and value those services. Many would be reduced to providing the services that people are willing to accept for the cost of providing them and participation in the programs changed from regulatory mandates to voluntary participation. That is what freedom is all about. It is giving the choices to the people. That is what prosperity is all about. It is giving the economic choices to the people. So what are the chances that citizens can come together and change the way our representatives determine how to spend the money that is taken from us? Can we demand that they criminalize progressive income taxes? Can we demand that they only spend money in accord with the purposes of the Fourth and the preamble to our Constitution? Can we agree upon a citizen review panel to okay the expenditures that 500 elected leaders who do not represent any one of us decide that they will authorize? Are we really consenting to be taxed for services we do not receive? Whenever and wherever we the people come to agreement, we are the only party in interest and we speak to the whole nation. And finally, the wealth of the nation cannot be greater than the wealth of the people of the nation. But we the people own this nation even as we own its government. If we are being burdened with government that does not serve, then it is a blight on the nation even as it is an assault on the prosperity of we the people. Our challenge is not finding improvements. It is in finding those improvements upon which we can come to effective agreement. It is only as we find our voice as we the people that we get to direct our government to serve. If the great American experiment and self-government is to continue to the next step, it will happen because we come together to assure that it does.

Welcome to Breeder's Syndicate, the only cannabis show breaking down the myths and history in cannabis. I'm Matthew, seed maker for over a decade and a half, and this is my journey into finding my truth in this wild world of cannabis. I invite you to join me and the Canaluminati by strapping into the passenger seat, but be warned, it's not always pretty. With the invasion of corporate culture into cannabis, it's getting even more muddy, which is why I've made it my mission to have a permanent record before all the history is lost and buried under a pile of cookies. We're the traditional market. The Syndicate is a collection of seed makers that want to push back against all the smoke and mirrors. In doing so, we will continue to ruffle the feathers of those who oppose, and my personal mission has become much bigger than myself. Welcome to the Cannabis Underground. This is the Revolution. Hi, I'm Matthew. Welcome to Breeder's Syndicate. I'm here with my co-host, Thousand Fold. Today, we are going to be talking about cannabis around the world from America to Europe to Australia. And today, I have my good friend Goldcutt, right? See, Co-Europe, do you even Goldcutt and our good buddy Matt Booze from Group by Seeds over in Australia. So we got Austria in Australia to confuse everyone. Thank you guys for being here. It's a pleasure to have you. Good evening. Hey, guys. Yeah, hello, guys. I thought we would warm up by just going around and saying, like, how long have you been growing slash involved with the plant? And what have you liked growing or smoking recently? Maybe Booze, you start? Yeah, sure, man. Hey, guys. Yeah, I've been growing since 2015 now. So I started smoking 2011, just normal shit at school. I started smoking. It's pretty common over here. I think like most people at school generally like grade 11, 12 would start smoking. I think it's more common than not. And yeah, from then on, man got into it from a more sort of advanced level. Started getting into the genetics and stuff. Like prior to that, the scene over here, you could only really get one type of cannabis. So that was obviously Booze and stuff if you knew someone. But for the most part, it's been sort of like gang run for a long time. It's just the same sort of shit. It's like compact PGR stuff that everyone was getting. So prior to getting exposure to cannabis, that was sort of my only real knowledge of it. But then when I was 17, I went over to Europe and spent some time in Switzerland for sort of 12 months living over there. And then I started to see what cannabis could really be like sort of low stuff from Amsterdam and that. And yeah, sort of when I came home, it was back to the old shit again, the old compact PGR. And yeah, just started growing after that. Thought, you know, it's got to be better than this. And if I can't get it, I'll just do it myself. I've only recently seen what you're referring to as compact PGR. Like pictures of it. I think you sent them to me or someone did. That wasn't maybe something. It was, yeah, I was surprised. I was surprised because I thought like, I mean, I'm used to California bad. But it's comparable, I think. Yeah, I'm going to, I think booze and I will have a little exchange about that later on. We talk about the flower locally available. It's not much different actually than our Mexican for here, like for Americans or if you were in California growing up or Mexican brick. I think it would be akin to that maybe for you guys. Yeah, well, let's talk about it in a bit. Maybe. Yeah, I don't know, man. Like this stuff is something else. Okay, wait, booze before before we move to gold cut. What have you liked growing and smoking recently? Well, since coming into the syndicate, I've obviously gotten a lot of extra gear. And prior to that, it was just like finding random breeders on Instagram. And it's really hard to get seeds into Australia unless you're trying to get through like fucking. I love growing marijuana or seeds man or something like that. Yeah, you know, it's going to be a lot of generic like hit and miss shit. But yeah, man, since coming into the syndicate, I've grown a bunch of just done some blue TK from Matt. I've been smoking on this morning, but also a bit of some outdoor shit too. I'm doing some sativa stuff now. I've got some a five haze BC from Lush and I'm planning on doing big run of them in the greenhouse this summer. So yeah, I'm a bit more into stuff too. Yeah. Yeah, man. I see Wally stuff. I got a bunch of some weight and like it's tricky because like we were talking about, I want to really get into the grown plants outdoors and doing some breeding for outdoors similar to what Wally's done. So some of the shit like the C five mango mango haze IBL, but I got like 40, 50 of each. So I'm sort of waiting. I want to pop them all at once and have a look at that stuff. So I'll put that on the back burner for a little while. Shout out Wally. Okay, man. Well, he's a legend. Really nice guy. Thanks for that booze. Yeah. Gold cut. You know, how long have you been involved with the plant? How did you get involved with the plant? And then secondarily, what have you been enjoying growing and or smoking recently? So I think it started getting involved with the plant in general. I'm a gardener. So I have a gardener's gardener's apprenticeship and master's degree and during that time I already got in contact. But I think really what really made me start to cultivate was we didn't want to buy hash from the hash bars, the shady hash bars in Vienna anymore. And so that was kind of, I think that was kind of the motivation because we all found out through a bunch of guys in Vienna found out through high times magazines that there are seeds and that you can cultivate at home and stuff like that. And I think that's how we got started. And I collected bag seeds. So very early on I collected bag seeds and I started those at one point with my mom's place and had a bunch of plants and from there on I think I never stopped cultivating. And what I recently did and liked was most of the Kemi stuff that we have here. I do like that stuff a lot. When did you start seeing the Kemi stuff show up like legit Kemi stuff? When we, my team brought it. Exactly. I mean, it kind of fairly, it happened long after it was here, right? Like you had to really work to get it. I think that most of the representations of whatever they call Kemi is what you often talked about. It is sold an illusion or a desperate wish to have something authentic. And most of it is crap. But I think through a bunch of breeder from abroad, it's now possible for everybody to enjoy a good Kemi cross or just a Kemi or whatever you choose. Exactly. Yeah, it's much more available now through reputable people. Back in the day, you're right. It was so hit or miss. I mean, I was talking to someone earlier about an old cut that I was one of the last people to have and watched it die. And they're pretty sure that they have this cut. But they've never smoked it. They don't know the person they got it from, never smoked it, never been around for it, the brand new person. And they sourced it from this person, but they said they were waiting to smoke it to see if it's real. And at that point, I was kind of like, but is that going to answer your questions on whether it's real or not? So, you know, I think it's interesting that a lot of many years later, we, we here find out that Super Skunk was something Kemi, something, you know, in this direction. Yep. Yep. A lot of many years later. So people kind of, I think they got it all, you know, mixed up with, with other skunks that are far from, from, from this direction. Yeah. Isn't that like realistically, like we were trying to convince you guys to buy something that was probably already over there in a similar fashion, just with a different name. Yeah, but poorly selected. Yeah. Poorly selected Super Skunk over there. Yeah. Or, or Shiva's kind of something like that. Yeah. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah. Shiva was popular. Yeah. For a long time, for a very long time. Yeah. And Shiva for those listening was in all five skunk one, I believe. Thank you both for, yeah, getting us warmed up. And so, yeah, today's episode really will always doing is we're going to go through some of the, you know, basic things like, you know, what sort of flowers available where you are, what kinds of seeds, you know, historically, what's the culture been like, legality. So we'll run through some of these basic questions. And I would also like to preface everyone that of course, not a single one of us can perfectly represent where we come from or like be a perfect authority. Speak for yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Knowledge. Absolutely. Knowledge of everything American. So we just try to give like our perspective, you know, anecdotes from what we know, how the fragmentary. And yeah, we just hope there will be an interesting conversation and maybe we'll learn some things about different places and how they've approached the plant. Yeah. So, yeah, and saying that as we, as we all know, America's always going to be the like point of reference so we can grow Matt whenever yeah, make fun of America. And yeah, don't hesitate to ask each other like questions as we go along. For sure. So the first, I think the first topic that I wanted to get to was just just legal status. You know, where is your country's last region in terms of legality right now? Booze, maybe we start with you. Yeah. So we've currently got a model of medical legalization happening. It's been happening since 2017 or 18. I had a acquaintance, whatever, who was like one of the first patients in Australia and he had a brain tumor. And so that was the type of condition that you had to have to get onto the medical register to begin with. And then it was extremely expensive as well, man. It was like 1000 bucks an ounce and it was, you know, all Canadian shit anyway. But now we're at a model where people are cultivating. So there's cultivation licenses. I haven't seen any of it like any of the Australian stuff. The only shit I've seen, like I'm not on the medical or anything. The only shit I've seen is the Canadian and it's all like, it's actually reminiscent of that shit that I saw in my youth man a little bit, like not in terms of like, you know, I don't have to PGR or whatever, but some compact shit. Like it's overdried. It doesn't have a lot of a smell. I hear a lot of it's irradiated as well. So there is obviously products, but, you know, it's far from good in my opinion at the moment. But yeah, aside from that, you know, it's been decriminalized to grow two plants in the ACT. So it's down in Canberra. Just fucking weird because it's where like all the politicians are. So it's like this tiny little state, I guess similar to like Washington DC, you know, and that's, that's the one place that they've voted that you can grow. So that's, that's a trip. That's bizarre. Yeah. Yeah, it's a trip. But yeah, I think so, man. That's sort of it at the moment, like the medical license I was speaking to a guy about this recently. It has sort of been geared towards chads. Same as everywhere else. It's like, you know, even a research license, you know, Yeah, that's it. So it's sort of been, you know, taking the keys to the kingdom type bullshit. So I've, you know, I've been a bit pessimistic about the whole thing. But in terms of actual like legality, like getting busted and stuff, it's pretty tame here. Like unless you've, I know people that have been done with, you know, upwards of 100 plants and have just gotten fine slap on the wrist, stuff like that. So it's, it's nothing major. So it's pretty conducive growing environment. Obviously the outdoor environment as well and everything like that. It's pretty fucking conducive to growing cannabis down under. And yeah, I'm seeing a lot more of it now. I didn't know any growers like my fucking dream when I was young was like, man, I seem to find like one of these old hippies that they're talking about and just get weed from him. You know what I mean? Where's these old dudes with the bushes out of the back. But yeah, so we're back in the day. Yeah. Didn't know a lot of growers, but now it seems just everyone and their mums cultivating man. So yeah, an overgrown type model, I think. Okay. Well, yeah, I'm jealous. You know, New Zealand is definitely not quite at the same point. There's no degree of decriminalization anywhere yet. We do have a fairly fledgling medical scene. But yeah, in terms of like cultivation, I can only assume that there are a whole lot of growers in this country. I don't actually know that for sure. One other relevant historical point is that we did have a referendum on decriminalization a few years ago and sadly it did not go through narrowly. As you know, as you know this, which was heartbreaking, very tragic. And other than that, similar to what you said, Bruce, at least in terms of what I've found, enforcement, I would say they're generally pretty tolerant towards like consumers and small growers. Yeah, it's, I think it's very rare to see anyone on that end of things get properly prosecuted. But definitely if you make it their problem, they will still do something. Like if you fill a house full of plants and people can see it or smell it, like you're still going to get something. Are you using one of those? Oh, sorry. Yeah, I think it's definitely a regional thing. Like the country is a thin strip of land that kind of goes north to south. So you do get a few different climates down the length of it. And I imagine some, I imagine further up north would be a lot better than down south towards the south pole. Yeah, definitely. But yeah, I had a buddy, it's just, you know, obviously the land of the Long Green Cloud connotation, but I had a buddy that lived in the North Island and she had, you know, uncles and stuff who would head into the hills on quad bikes and come back with garbage bags and shit like that. So I guess that's never made its way, sort of down to where you are. Yeah, I imagine they're parts of the country which are like, I don't know, maybe like California or like Colorado. Climate-wise I'm just guessing. I don't actually know this, but I think there are some really good spots. But yeah, I mean, implicitly I will, we didn't include New Zealand in the title of the episode, but I will speak to it whenever I can. I don't have any links to the traditional way of doing that. Gold cut, legality in Austria, and maybe, I don't know if you want to speak for Europe as well, maybe in a little bit, broad stroke it a little bit. Well, Austria is a weird example amongst the European countries because here you can buy seeds and plants. You can buy grow equipment in a lot of grow shops. For the size of our country, I think it's quite big in comparison to other countries around us, but with the legality, for instance, we can produce plants and sell them as ornamental plants more or less. You have to inform your customers that those plants should not be used for protection. Legal drug production or sales of any types of things that are not legal in Austria. But when it comes to there's a lot of cultivation going on in Austria. A lot. From everything, from the home grower with a tent in his apartment to very big facilities run by guys. Organizations or guys. I think what Austria, especially the police, still wants to make money with pulling you over fucking with your driver's license sending you to a peace test. This machinery behind it. You're in test. I got busted with 0.2 grams 20 years ago or 25 years ago. And I had to give peace test every three months every three months for three years. They could pull you over on the side of the road and make you piss right there. I was like what? They could get you to the police office and let you peace there. Every three months for three years. Yeah, but it changed. It's different now. That was 25 years ago. I think it's even worse now. So the legality is it really depends. In the city, I would say for me in Vienna it's pretty cool. You smell weed everywhere. But on the countryside it's a whole different story. There's barely any there's no acceptance on the countryside for drug people from the city. How there is medical but as far as I know and don't quote me on that you only there's only a chance for you to get into a medical program where you get thrown up in all if everything else failed all the other therapies failed then you have the right and even that I think is pretty difficult. There is an Austrian state funded cannabis production but they sell all the products to Germany to make the big question mark when it comes to legal cannabis. I do want to add here that in terms of accessing medical in New Zealand it's actually relatively easy now so I would say that there are few barriers to getting access to medical beyond it costing a lot. It's expensive. In terms of the countries around you what's going on with Germany I've heard some things about Germany opening up is that a thing do you think that will affect where you are? Oh yeah for sure if it definitely affected I think every surrounding country all the neighboring countries of Germany will be affected by it because people will say hey we want that too without knowing what it means to have new regulations and seeing what unfolds there is like everybody was so enthusiastic careful of legal cannabis let's go and now they're like you can have clubs but they cannot there's no social consuming everything has a thousand questions that even the guys who made the laws cannot answer if you ask me so but look at Germany man it's a huge country it's people so I don't know it's going to be very interesting in the next 2 to 5 years to see where Germany is heading I mean it's my neighboring country I speak German you can understand as a big club producer for many years I do look at Germany and think imagine having a couple companies there producing for the German market that would be fucking amazing yeah I think that would have big consequences for everyone but what I heard already what made me laugh was the Austrian border police to Germany to Bavaria is ringing the allowance they need more people because there's going to be a bunch of smuggling and from Bavaria which is even it's so so strict against cannabis that I don't even think they will have clubs there but Austria is sounding the alarm is funny to me yeah my Swiss buddies they won't even smoke anymore in the wintertime and they want to go skiing because I go skiing up near Bavaria obviously and have to drive through there yeah it's weird because in Bavaria I think like Hofbohlhaus and stuff like that people are getting pissed but they're strong but not not tolerated have you guys got a decriminalized model for CBD? similar to Switzerland? can you just go to the shops and get CBD? CBD is everywhere CBD turned into a commodity here lifestyle product recreational product is everywhere like flowers or just the flowers and oils actually it's a trip how are they going to know? if you got a bag of CBD weed or a bag of herb that's what you mean it's really confused the cops here they were pissed they were pissed at the industry because people got busted and they had the jars from the shop but with their own stuff in it and they had even had a receipt from the shop that's what I had from the shops cost a lot of problems people thought that they can smoke CBD and drive but you were a lot negative yeah if you have a lot of negative on kids if you smoke CBD so yeah even if it's like 1%, 2% or whatever it's still going to come up they're doing a new trial if you do it over a certain time and I think some of the CBD flowers that people sold were not 0.2% 0.3% they were 1% and more if you smoke it on a regular basis like cigarettes and then you get pulled over and yeah it was wild I worked 2 years in the CBD industry in Austria for a big producer and it was wild we could do an episode just about that but I'm not sure I'm just curious this is a good segue because the next section is just going to be us talking about flower and I know that obviously we all will not have further insights into what people are growing and breeding and what seeds are available but I thought for this first section we just pretend we don't know as much about that and just talk about what flower deserves to be available whether in terms of trends or in terms of things that stood out to you or any of those things so yeah booze, I mean obviously we can talk traditional we can talk about what you know of legal flower as well but impressions of flower maybe growing up and what you see on the market now yeah man so in Australia heavy days has actually gone over this but yeah those two traditional types of cannabis you get the bush or you get the hydra so hydro I went over for the most part it was just the peach the PGR compact and it was funny about that man it was Australia wide you'd see photos of like from Melbourne and even you in New Zealand it was like it was the same shit I don't know if it was like the same cutting that was passed around and grown or whatever and is yeah well PGR is the plant growth regulator so there's a lot of products that have PGRs there's natural PGRs like trichontinol Malfalfa and stuff like that but this one in particular they were using like buds well products and yeah it was weird man the flower resulted in this clumpy covered in red hairs massive stems like you get these tiny little claw leaves but they had like massive stems on them on the little like bud leaflets so strange sort of smell basementy you know like a musky sort of smell not currently going to the high because it was fucking pretty non-existent but you know general sort of narcotic thing which when I've spoken to crybaby and a lot of people and Matt you as well obviously people have this opinion that Australians are really into sativas but I think because of this shit most people sort of tend to look at cannabis as like a narcotic experience now so yeah because of this this peach a lot of people of I don't know just associate the Indica high with cannabis but yeah aside from that man the bush so I always loved bush whenever I could get it so Nimbun is a town a lot of people have heard of Nimbun is probably two and a half as the crow flies driving from me like two and a half hours so I had there probably like once a week when I was getting older I just didn't want to be around the PGR shit anymore and trafficable amounts probably about two ounces here so you know I didn't want to exceed that so yeah I was heading down there every week every two weeks and you get bush and it was my preference you know generally it was more of a sativa sort of experience big green chunky resinous flowers tropical smells you'd get hit or miss but that was actually where I got my first seeds so my first growers were from seeds from that bush weed from down there and you'd get hydro as well you get you know shit that slap a name on green crack you know cookies stuff like that which was a lot more expensive but yeah the bush man yeah you get decent rates so that and then obviously medical these days as I said it's not the greatest but yeah better than it used to be at least you can sort of get some variety now like you know you can get a blue dream or a GMO or whatever their version of that is but yeah on the street I don't know I haven't bought reefer in a long long time but yeah I'm just seeing I guess the quality would be then a lot more people growing probably be better do you know anything about like I know that in New Zealand it's become popular feel to just like get weed locally on Instagram and stuff like have you seen any of that and like what do people grow like what are people selling for a while there was a few groups in Australia that were doing that when the first like carts like the hot dog water carts and shit were coming out and people were fucking getting weed and trimming the hell out of it and calling it Callie and stuff like that selling it for a thousand bucks an ounce there was a lot of that kind of shit going on Callie tins just all that wanky shit man but since medical a lot of that's gone out the window because like the price of medical is cheaper than a lot of that was so it's usurped to that but yeah there was a lot through Instagram for the last time I was buying cannabis it would have been through Instagram for sure Matt I put a link into the chat I don't know if you want to like see if you can share the picture because I don't know I want to see I want to see Goldcutts reaction to this well funny thing is Goldcut might know because when I was in Vienna man the thing that fucked me up was I went to like Planet Ham for whatever one of these head shops and people buying seeds and I'd be like okay so there's seeds for sale whatever you'll be able to find some good shit on the street end up buying weed on the street one too dissimilar to this what the fuck is this it's so small I can't see it you can't see it no it's so small it's just a bag with what's in there it looks so weird it is weird it's a bunch of hair it's like it's mostly covered with stick it's like a 70s porno bro it's not gonna stay like a 70s porno just all bush no resin it looks like CBD flowers from the shops here oh fuck really even our CBD flowers someone like this but some of the some of the stuff in these mylar's does look similar to this shit that I've been seeing lately no lie and a lot of it I've noticed that looks really bad and the one that's colored is from going through something they're doing to try to get through our medical system which is washing it with hydrogen peroxide yeah dirty ass secret but that's like I don't j-boys tech where they would fucking dip it so they can pass all the tests to fucking jam and everything and it just needs hydrogen peroxide and yeah a lot of it ends up looking discolored oxidized obviously I'm putting it in hydrogen peroxide you're gonna oxidize it yeah yeah well so you guys do that over there yet? yeah I did do it with you too I'm sure yeah do they do that in Australia and New Zealand hydrogen peroxide dips are you guys familiar with that they irradiate it what the hell does that mean I don't know I think they put it through some sort of radiation it's relative to fucking fungus or whatever gamma ray gamma ray flare something like that wow what's the consequences of that dude fucking no turps man that's the biggest thing like cyanara turps that's the biggest thing I'll say but I mean like the consequences of smoking something that's been irradiated I'm gonna have some fucking supervillains that don't know what good weed is it would be in the next few years man radiation that I'm just gonna say it'd be the same kind of radiation that they exposed like certain food products too as well imported fruits and vegetables that makes sense yeah but we're not smoking those and that's the thing when you bring in but it's standardized it's standard yeah okay well I think everyone's had a good look at this excellent example of sour can you put it away but yeah if you're lucky I kind of like looking at it turns me on okay well same questions for gold cut in terms of the flower that you know you see on the street I guess both maybe when you're growing up and what do you see more recently on the street so in the past when I started consuming cannabis in general that there was a park dealers or you go to a cafe like I told you there were illegal hash bars where you go and wait for 5 hours or 3 hours or you go to a park and buy from a dealer and they sold you each you can buy grams of hash from I think it was from Morocco when you were lucky some of them had Afghani but most of it was from Morocco very cheap Moroccan hash then when home growing and import started it changed some of those bars then sold flowers imported flowers from I think some of them were Dutch and the rest was from Germany from illegal growth in Germany that also supplied Holland with flowers they just sold it to other markets and then when home home growing really started to take off and clones I think what people sold or had was what was available as a clone and those were all all Dutch genetics all of them like White Russian Euphoria Big Bud Super Skank I don't know a bunch of those sensey Dutch passion yeah those trains were around for very long time but it also at one point I think everything was played out and customers and the guys that smoked those products were not interested anymore it changed and also what some of the seed banks that you guys know from abroad from your country started to bring over to Europe and that changed what people started to accept as the new norm because it was produced as clone a lot of those seeds ended up in nurseries as mother plants and were sold as clones like I did it's interesting that you mentioned some of the influence from the US for a moment I just want to ask Bo's whether or not he you know was there any kind of like palpable influence coming from the US that you observed Bo's you got all that shit like the glow trays and the little cookies, mylar bags and stuff like it's barry truths about the Spanish scene as well and Matt said at the start of the episode everything's just an imprint in the US the pine is in cannabis it's truth in modern cannabis at least breeding so yeah man I see a lot of parallels you know like most of the stuff I see being grown these days is like cookies gelato, sherbet, mac, offsets all that kind of shit yeah yeah we're definitely getting to that and the next section was actually going to be on clones already but gold cut back to you for a moment, was there anything else about the flower that tends to be available there that you wanted to comment on or how it changed it changed a lot from the beginning of the influence of the Spanish market of Catalonia and bunch of regions in Spain that produce a lot of products for the European market and it changed to Amnesia everything turned into Amnesia and it was this the Amnesia Phantom everybody nobody knew where it's from because everybody had the same Amnesia and it was at a certain point so flooded that even average Joe Schmoe on the street bought Amnesia and the bag of the friend where I bought was Amnesia so various qualities and either imported or also grown here because the clone was also available here around so it changed to Amnesia and then people started to accept accept the fact that some of your American strains were pretty valuable on the market could sell for a very high price and that was the beginning of the end of wedding cake where huge facilities started to grow wedding cake because it was potent, the clone is really good and the market loved it totally destroyed the price of their own product with just flooding the market and something that no one would have grown let's say 15 years back never because of huge lengthy plant, ugly difficult it wouldn't have yielded enough there's a whole lot about it and now it turned into a cheap commodity the other problem but I think something like RS11 or lemon cherry gelato would be the next the other problem that came with wedding cake was the HLV Vyroid being passed around to your nurses via things like the wedding cake being spread rapidly like GG4 that were going the actual clone was making it to Europe because there was such a demand they'd finally get it there I mean the Vyroid was already here it was already here the Vyroid yeah you know something that is in a lot of ornamental plant facilities and gardens so why not with cannabis and it was always poorly treated with even bigger production companies here that didn't take care of it properly so it was just a matter of you know of time and years where everybody grew the fuck out of let's say train wreck and amnesia and especially the quad cut it was just a matter of time that all those moms were infected that happened that's a good segue into the clones side of things booze did we we talked about US influence obviously but do you perceive that Australia also was influenced by Europe did we see much of like amnesia haze down here or anything like that oh yeah yeah totally yeah but what I meant by that I wasn't discredited in Europe at all but you know originally that shit came from the states and then over to Europe when this worked that's what I was getting at with that but yeah we had a lot of that so a lot of the first growers I saw were like you know white widow super lemon haze that kind of stuff like greenhouse barnies I would say same here yeah same market for 30-40 years that's real still do kind realistically greenhouse is still the big seller you know what do you think greenhouse and barnies those are the big movers that nobody beats them nobody can beat them the amount of volume of sales they do by you know moving seeds for other vendors so much about marketing and white unreal and they're first names everybody here so they're the first people everybody tried so it just it's how it works they get everyone first and everyone bases their experience growing on what they got from them first which is even more terrifying to me hmm okay well booze in terms of in terms of clones right like what I don't actually know anything about clones here for example what people keep and pass around what do you know of like what's kept and passed around over there like now yeah um none of the shit that you'd want really like not not discrediting anything I mean none of the stuff like the old hazes or like the old sativas but like you know the old mullum and stuff like that I don't think it's a rounding clone form like those seeds but um yeah all the shit that wallies got so obviously at one stage they had like the C5 the East Coast sour diesel aside from that things that I've seen it's just seed pops man that's kind of what's cool like it's it's a double-edged sword it's tricky because I've spoken about baselines like when we're popping seeds you know it's not we have a clone to compare it to be like oh yeah that's as good as that etc hey yeah Eli so my one of my good buddies local bird seed he's um a real good guy from down under he's doing some breeding he's I'm actually smoking some of his stuff this morning I got some TV from Bodhi the Thai Vietnamese the destroyer um yeah but so Eli's got some great cuttings he's got a Harlem dreams Band-Aid Hayes uh it's a sour TK from Steel Violet from Pip some great cuttings to get around man but yeah aside from that there's Dan's the guy that's done some work with a Yeti OG which is like a lupus headband humble snow he's been working that I tried some of that recently it was really good but yeah there's nothing there's not like a market like American man there's not like you put your finger on it and be like oh there's the sour or the cam or something there's just seed pops for the most part but they get a more prevalent like I try to share clones whenever I can yeah and I was going to say as well that there isn't that same quality of globalness what I mean by that is that like they're obviously going to be like lots of different pockets of growers scattered around the country and they're probably not going to be like clone hubs or like hubs for mothers and stuff um I imagine in the same way as like US and probably Europe as well um yeah yeah yeah we're a lot more like Australia is pretty fucking big and it's not like America where the whole country is populated you know it's uh you'll have pockets here and pockets there like you'll have Brisbane and then the next like capital city would be Kansas just you know nine hours ten hours north more up Wally Duck's way um yeah so it's not it's not like you'll have like Sacramento and then Oakland and then fucking San Diego whatever you know what I mean it's just there's not that degree of sharing and localized clone trading and stuff like that yeah yeah and with the medical it's just all like it's all bullshit man it's all like fucking cookie's course or like you know red dankness cut it or just you know what I mean it'll be like a seed pop someone in Canada and they're like alright let's let's take that you know it's fucking bullshit orange aid or jet fuel gelato just boof on boof yeah because going back to Goldcut you know that is one difference Goldcut obviously himself has some experience like um facilitating like clones and and whatnot um so Goldcut in terms of the clone scene where you are how have you observed that to change because you've been obviously embedded in it and I know you may have mentioned some of it already but yeah yeah I'm producing clones since for various companies since 2005 2004 somewhere there and what I've seen changing was from from that seed seed pops that most of those shops have and those seed pops were passed around without asking to every shop just stole the cuts from each other and everybody had the same shit so that was at one point ridiculous because everybody had the same shit and then uh yeah like I told you already changed because of the influence of American seeds and I think the first ones were was a lot of was a lot of DNA and a lot of TGA um that came um in regular seed form some guys selected or some guys in Europe selected and passed the cut and at one point bigger production facilities in Austria had those cuts and produced them you know so there was there was a was a lot of TGA around and that changed I think what people expected from a clone you know and um but it still split it up in so many directions the motivation behind why you grow and why you cultivate at home or for what reason if you smoke you don't smoke you cultivate for someone you can't cultivate because of financial you know interest uh yeah and no I was not surprised because I've seen a lot of different aspects very early when I traveled to the United States and I think I could uh you know I had the most of most of the friends that I visited had a let's say a hippie background or or parents from you know from the hippie generation and they had their smoke or their habits or you know what they had around their head and what they cultivated so my first impression was more in this direction that I was very well aware that the quality was amazing everywhere I went everybody had amazing smoke compared to coming back home I was embarrassed well so so much to that sorry so I noticed when I started like early on working with my friend Ed Borg in labs who was in Amsterdam I noticed early on like some of the things that we were doing in the U.S. that was marrying what this big corporation called Bedroekon in Amsterdam was doing at the time so I saw us taking some of their plays but making it more corporate driven as opposed to more like small criminal organization driven if that makes sense um I saw it I saw it being more based for like uh rich corporation people and all the laws kind of twisting slowly towards that which is very American after that I've kind of always expected it to be you know one overreaching corporation that it ends up being everything funneled from one big place into one main you know how everything kind of does everything kind of turns into a monopoly first when it becomes a commodity I kind of see that happening everywhere and people having to fight back over time because it's not immediately it's going to be over time you're going to slowly lose more rights we're seeing that so yeah it doesn't necessarily surprise me what's going on over there and I think it's only going to continue to drizzle on to other countries that are feeding off of the USA's teat yeah um I had quite a weird idea I don't think we'll have time to do it but maybe we could do it another time which was for us to pull up Burner's last YouTube video in Thailand and for us to kind of like comment on some of the things that he quote-unquote sees there but I think we can save that for another we might have to save it for another it would be fun though yeah right he only goes global because I will say that this episode that I'm about to refer to hasn't actually gone live yet it's going live later today but in the previous episode essentially Matt and I talk about um the state of information right in cannabis and how how kind of messed up it is and this had to do with like seeds and flour um but you know we talked about flour we talked about clones so I think now we just open it all the way up we can talk about seeds as well on the seed market but I want to know first of all from each of you what was it like when you were first trying to navigate through the bullshit that it is like cannabis information online um maybe in terms of like obtaining your first seeds or clones or whatever like how what was that journey like and how long did it take for you to find information that you thought was like actually reliable um maybe we start with booze yeah um I actually kind of remember too much man like I think it was sort of as I started popping seeds I started to look into like online shit like I was too young I'm only 27 so I was too young for overgrow and the tail end of ICMAG and stuff like that so it was really just yeah bread it like hit on reddit search and shit up youtube videos um pretty early on I got Jorge Sabanto says book which is I had a little bit of grow information in it like not a lot of you know not a lot of good shit but I had some some good tidbits a lot of cool pictures of weed cool pics like Charlie Garcia stuff and so cool stuff and yeah some shit from Camero but um yeah I poor man not too much hey like now I'm more into obviously the discord that was the biggest step for me getting into the breeder syndicate discord for sure that was where I sort of started to you know expand on my genetic and grow knowledge exponentially take note this man's 27 and did his research and fucking got to the bottom of some shit so anybody can do it at any age it's not an age thing you know how I think I got very lucky forums none of that shit well meeting you guys I got very lucky I think um and in the Australian scene I met a couple of people early that got me into it I had a mentor so to speak like my friend's dad who taught me a lot about growing um who've been growing for years is a cool great guy importer for things like that helps so much helps so much to have that you know that little bit of like hands-on mentorship from somebody's older teach you like the right ways to not just to grow but how to interact with other growers that's super important super yeah and it was I think it could have gone a lot different had I spent a lot of time online because the first like tidbits I got from online were like a Humboldt seed curve and like that and stuff like that you know like yeah um meeting my buddy's dad early on was great because he was you know the shit we were growing was all the old stuff from his old day so it was all his like leftover seed so inbred a lot by this stage so it wasn't anything super fantastic but you know the remnants of Thai and stuff like that that he didn't getting back in the day or he didn't import an Indonesian weed and stuff like that so yeah man it was cool learning from him and then yeah pretty soon to get this cool and off she went uh you just dropped a tidbit that I want to return to later which is where some of the genetics in Australia actually have come from because I had similar questions about New Zealand but yeah before that gold cut how about you tell us about your initial journeys into the cannabis information space you know what was that experience like how long did take you to find information that was useful reliable pretty pretty quick I found out about ICMAC and first I was only I was only trying to find things that are interesting and made sense for me for cultivation reasons without having a account but a lot of the threads were private you could only go in with having an account and adding something to the whole thing and so I made an account and tried to share what I did as a but it was so slow I felt like it was so slow for me the information wasn't some of the people were not I don't know I didn't feel really good about it and we had a local forum but there was also I always had a gardenings I mean professional gardenings take on what I do so it was hard for me to find someone who kind of shared this experience with a bigger facility there was no one out there but after a certain time I found a couple guys and I think one of the first guys was actually also sub cool with some of the bigger things that he had and I also really enjoyed Dr. Scandrelson very early one of the guys from youtube also and he was a good friend of mine he was a good friend of mine MediCropper was also one of them which I always enjoyed because bigger facilities and kind of a different type of take on it and through that I think I kind of started to to hack my way through budget information which was still out there still in a lot of pro science you know what I mean which was contradicting to what I learned as a gardener and was going to wait a minute what should I do with this info and a lot of the products from the United States were not here available here so you have to find other stuff but I think ICMAC was the beginning and the British Syndicate discord is at the very end right now or not the end but it is now it is now yeah thank you that was that was cool so Buu is already kind of gestured towards this but I was going to come back and ask now we're into seeds in terms you know in all aspects like what are people what seeds do you guys see people buying what do you see people growing are there people making seeds locally or actually breeding locally that you found interesting I know okay back to Buu's I think I know Buu's has quite a bit to say about this he also has his own little seed bank in Australia so Buu's yeah again and feel free to repeat yourself as well I know we've talked we've touched on aspects of this already but yeah what's what a seed like aspect seeds like man yeah so yeah going back to how far do we want to go back are we just talking like right now or maybe like in the time that you have been involved cool yeah so when I first got into it as I said a lot of it was like the shit you'd see online it was like Humboldt C code like Choc Mint OG so before you go further why do you think companies like Humboldt seed co the first ones to be visible I actually was trying to figure this out as well I'm not sure they understood SEO early I'll say is probably I don't know money too before Google changed a lot of the algorithms yeah what's that Matt it was because it was because they were backed by Dynafem who was the biggest producer they were the same company and had same owners so that's why they are so distributed because the biggest seed company on earth is them wait oh two different ones HSE HSO yeah both of them are big HSE not so much it's a smoke and mirrors thing it's smaller HSO for sure is massive massive massive yeah but Matt no the weird thing we're seeing is that HSE is still big in seemingly both Australia and New Zealand I don't still don't fully understand why I think that's why Booze was saying it's partly SEO they probably have quite a bit of like social media stuff in general I don't know yeah Matt that one's always fucked with me because it's two organizations but I think it's the Humboldt one the one that's got that there was post pictures that Pennington one yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah there's no way you can there's no way you can lose with that you know like Instagram they got some good marketing they got marketing down pat yeah there's a lot of that stuff I guess early on man because we're talking like 2015 here and also at that time there wasn't there was way less podcast and shows and shit I guess the infancy of the American legalization had a limited a lot of information getting out there so yeah but these days man it's a bit of everything so through Goat by Seeds we stock a bunch of good breeders so internationally I've got Matt I've got High and Lonesome we've got some goat farm gear coming in I stock white buffalo seeds as well for the sativa stuff and then locally I've got three guys on deck I've got Wally Dark obviously who's a phenomenal breeder, a really respected guy I don't think I've ever heard a bad word said about him I've got my buddy Southern Sun Seeds who was around on the Mr. Nice forum back in the day so I had him on my little podcast recently and he's got a bunch of cool stuff from back in the day he's got some Lemon Maza from Kanga he works with some cutting of Star Mobs which is a Malamo Haken NL5 Hayes Kanga I've just been across the start and then my buddy Eli Cash locally as well who's just I said popping a bunch of cool shitties latest project is using the TV from Bodys so he's got that Isaac Hayes from Yo Sammy across to the TV as well as the Harlem Dream from Pifcoast which is killer killer cutting I run that it's phenomenal beautiful uplifting daytime stuff and then a Band-Aid Hayes cutting as well from DuckD getting around man but that's some yeah that's sort of still in its infancy I only started that last year so the motive was to get better seed out there because a lot of the stuff that I'd seen had been either the imported shitt that people were getting themselves you know through like ILGM or Attitude or whatever which was like a lot of bunk or other local stuff that had been made available that I wasn't super jivey with that I thought you know we could do better so yeah man that was pretty much it just on that trend just looking for for cool stuff that I jive with and a lot of it I grow myself obviously too so yeah it's been it's been cool yeah I I can reiterate on some of that I think what I observe in New Zealand is similar like you have a whole bunch of people who are growing like the quote-unquote the big Seabank names like Greenhouse, Nirvana Sensi all that and then you have the newer hypey brands like whatever it is like Thugpug Exotic like all that stuff in-house there seem to be the kind of like main things that I see like on Reddit and all that but I'd actually be really curious whether there are people in New Zealand doing similar things to you and your mates over there where obviously you have access to quite a huge range of cool stuff that you guys are working with I'm sure they exist in New Zealand and I'm sure there are people going to be listening who are from New Zealand who can probably tell us this but yeah that's super cool and I think that's kind of one of the benefits in a way of having such a fragmented scene it actually does in a way mean that at least you're not beholden to these major trends that everyone has to revolve around yeah so really cool to hear about like yeah what you and some people around on yeah gold cut I think you may have talked to some of this in the last episode as well gold cut but yeah feel free to not yeah repeat yourself don't worry about that so the question was seeds seed making, breeding locally anything interesting going on what have you observed over time it constantly changes because of the availability of everything but what I see right now is that there's a certain amount of people that is buying like you said a certain 20 big big-ass Myla brands from abroad and they pop them and with the hope that they find something special out there that's that's one part of the guys who buy seeds and pop those seeds then there is of course Spanish seed production buyer with the classic brands that we all know they also I think are a big part of it because they're so widely available and are also affordable they're cheap they can buy a bunch of seeds for for verity so I think yeah those are the groups that I see are for my part of Matthew's work the blue bonnet line and the amazing hybrid so people start to understand hey okay there is someone here that offers them and they try those out but for most hard people the the biggest group is interested in feminized seeds which I don't understand but they still expect okay wow 10 seeds and they are not feminized where should I do the selection how should I have them and also I think but it's also a group so it splits up in those yeah those groups that have different expectation from buying a pack of seeds or popping seeds in general because we have so much clones available here and a lot of the newest hyper strains from abroad with people who import them here and have libraries here somewhere in central Europe and they sell to those nurseries you know in Austria also so you have a lot of those and genitals available why should you pop seeds for every show is here by 20 genitals and I don't have to pop seeds that's exactly what killed the US seed market and that's also why HLV took hold you know what I mean because it was a bunch of people who didn't want to pop seeds because it seemed too much trouble what if one herms on me etc and don't want to mess with males for sure because they can't even identify a male most of them you know so yeah it's same kind of shit here people wanted clones if the clones here why are we going to buy seeds and they all had clones they all passed them dirty and you know the number of grown plants here also started to change with the years people started with 20 plants and now they go 200 so you want to pop 200 seeds every time probably not the best idea no yeah I'm trying to get 200 variants yeah I know okay well I have a specific question for booze here because I have the same question about New Zealand which is where some of the older seed stock has come from I think between the US and Europe it's probably fairly well documented or discussed but I feel like for Australia and New Zealand I imagine a lot of early seed stock may have come from Southeast Asia and I'm wondering booze if you know much about that um a little bit man like my mate that I was talking about before he spoke a little bit on that so he was in the 80s importing some Thai, some Indonesian stuff like that so that was I guess the two sort of most common varietals you'd find here Indian, Indonesian Thai that kind of stuff and that like Laotian, Cambodian all that sort of stuff, that general area but speaking to guys like Wally and talking to Sunny who was mates with Kanga he got to hear a little bit about what they had around back then so Kanga was like a world traveler he brought back stuff from California he had some Indian stuff some Thai, Malam obviously a whole bunch of different stuff Wally had his Laotian he had some stuff from Papua New Guinea which could incorporate into that Z99 that he's got as well so that was I guess a lot of the varietals that would have been found around here not a lot of South American stuff I've never heard of any like Panama or Colombian anything like that being grown but I think there was hearsay that there may have been Colombian in Malam because Neville found it similar to getting seeds and bringing them back even and growing them here and I heard when a lot of the cannabis production shifted from Griffith down in New South Wales to up in Mariba which is far closer to the equator it's one of the most conducive places on earth to grow cannabis just because of the Tableland water and climate days of sunshine stuff like that so up in Mariba I know they were growing lots of Indian back in the day because when they had a massive bust up there they had a lot of Indian seeds so that would have been I guess a lot of the old clones came from like the Malambimbi Madness the old Mother Sativa that Kog has posted about and others yeah man that would be it for our old seed but not a lot of it is around still like while he lost a lot of his seed collection Kanga no longer around really Bucketbongs was a guy that was around on the forums back in the day yeah on the Mr. Meister he's got some Mocseed still from Kanga and some Malam across to Malawi as well a couple of other bits and pieces some cool shit so yeah man there's that around still but none of the old tie like I haven't seen anything like in Nimbin though you still get bush that probably descends from that but I wouldn't like I wouldn't rate it that highly anymore the guy's use of the word bush kills me bro yeah a bit of bush yeah man I was just gonna say that it's cool that it's not entirely derivative from what's going on in the US and Europe like Australia has its own like you know strange like integrations from elsewhere it really has its own culture there with the Nimbin stuff I mean you have your own like cannabis superstars there like Tony Mulloway and people like that like it's it's different than the US you have your own culture there pretty cool oh there's a fucking in Cannibal 3 I think whenever it was that Jason came to Australia it was I think Cannibal 2 maybe yeah one of those photos there was like Blackberry from Malawi yeah yeah apparently it was really good like it wasn't like Naboo's it was super potent because he had Naboo's in the same I wanted that so bad I've always wanted to get his Blackberry like in C form but I've never been able to get a hold of Tony Mulloway or anyone met him that has those seeds but that's one that I've wanted forever because that that book Tony I think I may have met him once because I used to go to Nimbin often when I was doing like some blogging and shit but also getting weed obviously but one time I was invited downstairs at the hemp embassy and there was a guy down there who had been making CBD seeds and he was mates with Tony and Tony might have been there as well but this was like years and years ago Tony is a legend man I haven't heard of him in a long time but he was like put through the ring and he was one of the early pioneers making oil for sick kids similar to smoking Moose from the forums back in the day he was great other legend yeah just both super altruistic is Moose no longer with us? no Moose passed away so Moose and Sunny Southern Sunseeds my buddy they were like best buds like live right next to each other Moose shared a lot of the gear he got with Sunny like the Kush Mullen tie and stuff like that so yeah but Moose passed away unfortunately yeah I always talk about I always got a shout out Moone unit because he was one of the dudes on Mr. Nice like we didn't really know each other too well early on but like we'd watch each other and he was so legit Ramath Kangan all those dudes and when someone was sandbagging me in the middle of the deal and like kind of smiling to my face and he knew about it he made sure that I didn't get screwed over just because he saw what was going on and so I always thought those guys that whole crew was always even Kenga Wally all of them have been so solid to me over the years you know like I have a lot of respect for the Australian growers they're solid people yeah Moone unit it's different than here I had never really heard of Moone unit except you mentioned him once years ago when I reached out to you and then Wally as well but you know everyone speaks of Wally with such a reverence for Wally was like that about Moone he's like man this guy he did what Neville never did three land races and made something equivalent to a Moone hybrid so yeah super cool man yeah I think he's still around I think Wally said they were talking but I'm not 100% on that man if you could get a hold of them if you could get a hold of Moone unit it'd be killer just because I have good memories of that dude like back then no one was sticking their neck out for me bro I was enemy number one like like you wouldn't even believe way worse than now said like the fact that one of the Aussie dudes was cool enough to do that and like because he was putting faith in me that I'm not going to be a scumbag and like Sam bag him right back for having my back a lot of people do that you know like get mad be like this person told me you talk crap you know like and I yeah they're just solid people and it's really back in that day it was so rare to find solid people to do anything for someone else just a bit of a cult following down here it's weird like even before all the British syndicate stuff I saw a lot of your gay being grown like that's so yeah like yandy and yeah yeah and then Kelly out on couple of the people yeah yeah and I put southern stars out there too and he was an early grower of my stuff yeah yeah I gave Wally a couple packs of yours recently man couple packs of the la bar or maybe the GMO cross as well yeah it's been getting around fucking happy Wally's being so great to me man happy to kick anything back to that guy he's a legend to me too again like I said all those dudes were just so genuinely different than a lot of the Americans that were on the forums and I felt like I had a much different kinship with them because they were so direct and just they didn't have time for bullshit it was just like nah mate get to the point you know they didn't fuck around and we just understood each other on that level and were able to communicate much better than I could with the other Americans more than like seed or anything from them the most valuable thing thousand fold not you thousand fold but a thousand fold is the time man what they've given me it's lovely just being able to sit there because yeah that's what I've always wanted man I love like you know people are a little bit older I just get along with them but I always have since I was a little kid and so talking to these kind of guys that have been around and hearing all their stories man it's invaluable you know I just thought about it most people won't know who we're talking about when we speak about Wally Duck he is the creator or I don't even want to say creator but he is the man who brought ducks foot that most people like call things ducks foot traits but he brought the actual plant ducks foot strain cultivar whatever you want to call it to the masses and worked with it and bred with it and it's how it got into other hands so he's like a serious serious like to me yeah me too man and then he's kept a lot of cool shit alive down under that you'd want to be kept alive you know like when he had the C5 so they got a bunch of stuff imported back in the day a couple of clones that made it across and he had the C5 and obviously he got Mango Hayes IBL early from Shanti so that was before Shanti can that project which was like 2010 or something yeah he got the yeah he got the IBL seeds from him and then started breeding them and I got a bunch of them to hire and loan some this year man and he's part of it yeah it's killer for me because it's like you know looking from across the paddock because I haven't been able to grow me at myself so yeah it's great he's got them out so it'd be cool to see what he finds in them and while he's sending me pictures he's got some fantastic ones Neville's Hayes Z99 Laos Mango fucking C5 all sorts of cool shit that no it's really cool and really cool to hear more about some of the connections as well historically between the countries people definitely probably wouldn't know that so I'm glad you guys are here I wanted to round out this section on seeds or like genetics in general was there anything that any of you wanted to comment on with regards to the genetics in your regions any questions for anyone else any of you I got a question for a go cut man when did they like legalize or start tolerating the sale of seed because I was there in 2015 and they had them like over the counter so how long have they been doing that for well I think seeds were sold or 99 98 that's where the yeah I think somewhere around there or even earlier in they bought seeds from Dutch companies I think mostly positronic and sensitive seeds repackaged them and sold them in the first grow shops and head shops but I think that's where they started to sell them to people who are all regular seeds that's crazy I would never have thought it was that long most people like fairly self-reliant like they're just growing their own one or two plants yeah a bunch of people go for themselves so for these growing and the other guys growing and they you know swap what they have and like you said it's like homestead cannabis homestead yeah a lot a lot in here especially with the tents I think as soon as the tent growing started to just took off everybody was capable of you know finding space in as well apartment to grow for their own and that's where it took off also with seeds do you do outdoor where you are like in Vienna or not? I'm gonna ask that too yeah what's the outdoor climate like the outdoor climate is like in Oregon very similar to Oregon wet yeah it's still wet in September end of September October it starts to get wet so not the best idea to grow long long flowering plants and there's barely any outdoor and in all those years maybe it wasn't my focus also but in all those years smoking and seeing all types of different flowers there was barely any Austrian or relevant Austrian outdoor there so okay this is in Switzerland there's quite a bit like my friends do you have outdoor culture you have a growing culture for outdoor for actually made it plants and for their region and they'd grow a lot of out of it we don't I mean I never had that especially in Vienna there's no space I guess it's a city there I mean there's really growing sure but it's not really nothing relevant I wish it would be different I wish I only had it in the last 5 years I only had twice really good some grown Austrian weed and it blew me up completely at my socks it was so good it was really good but very rare Boos how about what's been growing outside like for you outdoor is my preference man I love growing outdoor that's just the sun like I grow a lot of vegetables roses flowers and stuff like that as well so just being out in the sun having my hands in the dirt is my preference but obviously legalization and just being able to get a lot of work done efficiently I've switched to indoor just so I can go through cycles quicker have looks at larger populations but outdoor is where I started man it was the first 7 years of cultivating started in pots, moved to the ground man in ground gardening fucking hit and quit it nothing make a good compost water it like 4 times and it's about it grow trees killer I love it in terms of outdoor growing in Australia in general do you know much about the different challenges in different regions basically is everyone having as good a time as you nah nah I live in I look like the same before probably one of the more conducive places on earth to grow cannabis outdoors I'm not up where Wally is I'm not down where you are I'm higher up more towards the equator so I've got 14 hours maybe 13 and a half hours daylight and summer pretty like 12, 12 in winter so it's super conducive but down in Tasmania where guys like Steve Solomon you'll get maybe one crop a year you'd probably want to plant early maybe even do a depth but then up north all that cannabis years ago you'd get three crops a year out near the Northern Territory like that on the table super conducive to growing outdoors I'd say it was like these days fuck I don't know if people say a lot of it's done outdoors I'd more than assume most of the cannabis growing would probably be indoor because a lot of the bulk stuff as I was saying would always be indoor they're not growing the PGI outdoors they're pulling it at 7 weeks, 6 weeks indoors and the cannabis industry is growing indoors which is fucked in the head because we're like a solar panel of a fucking country so you're saying that there's nothing well for certain parts of the country there's nothing in terms of the environment anyway that's like would be a barrier to growing outdoors if humidity, you don't want to grow like where I am, you want to grow something otherwise I prefer it to TV shit so I've always grown longer flowering stuff but yeah like down south so where a lot of it's grown, like Nimbun is super wet Nimbun is a lot more rain days than where I am so that's strange but it's just where people congregated man, like around like Byron Bay Northern Rivers, Nimbun is where a lot of the hippie communes were and then up north there was like Cedar Bay and Rainbow, something like hippie commune so where a lot of the hippies congregated was where a lot of the cannabis was growing so yeah down south you got the cold fucking bugs, mites, you know that kind of stuff bush turkeys, kangaroos you know when you're growing out in the battle of woods all sorts of pests and just the usual stuff man but yeah not a lot of there's not a lot of snow like down south a little snow but you can pretty much grow anywhere I've seen it everywhere that's right I thought we could move on to kind of like rounding this out but also just like some lighter and maybe more open questions and so I guess if we zoom out all the way I was curious on us reflecting on like the overall culture of cannabis where you are and just like I don't know do you know are there are there interesting things that you notice when you think about people smoking or growing where you are relative to other places like what's what's weird about it what's different from say the U.S. which we all you know we all know quite a lot about is there anything that you would want to see change as well very broad just like yeah super broad reflections on like yeah cannabis where you are to you anyone really go ahead Gold Coast, there a gold tech what I would love to change I would love to see changing in the future here in Austria would be the fact of mixing tobacco with cannabis something that I also did a lot of course because I was smoking tobacco but I quit almost 15 years ago but it was also part of my smoking routine and habits you know that's how we smoke in the past when there was only hashish how we used to smoke it or mix it into a spleen but that had it lasted so it's still around with most of the people I know who smoke joints like that I wish more awareness would happen people would start to stop smoking that much tobacco it's terrible everywhere I couldn't if I go out and I meet with a bunch of people maybe out of 20 people smoking there's me and one roster guy who's not smoking tobacco you know what I mean actually this is a good line of questioning yeah is there anything else about how people consume their cannabis that's weird or like that you think might be weird where you are I mean tobacco in Europe is obviously a big one I would say that it's still big in New Zealand probably still big in Australia as well are there any other nuances or oddities about how people ingest or consume cannabis where you are like okay example we had an episode on glass and American glass a few weeks ago and it became really clear to me that different countries are obviously in very different places when it comes to do with like smoking tech and smoking culture and all that so now I've become a bit more curious about what some of these differences may be I would say that people here aren't like into dabs at least not much like not many there are few but yeah Gold cut I mean back to you for that I think that we have an old tradition or long tradition of big glass bombs like the company Roar I'm sure you know so there is something that is a traditional smoking device here if you are the you call yourself a smoker here in Central Europe in the past you must have a giant fucking bomb giant bomb probably really ugly right yeah China glass or Roar if you had the money you would buy a Roar but if you don't have the money you buy China glass of course and there was no there was no had a glass for a long time that changed there's a bigger and bigger group who buy had a glass and also European glass blows so that changed I think what's a bit weird is if the people stop smoking or they have the intention to stop consuming tobacco with cannabis they immediately buy a pocket paper right there's something that everybody has at least two in that drawer that don't work anymore and they buy those the winchies and start some big and everybody has a pocket paper riser which is cool of course it's amazing and volcanoes of course volcanoes are something that I think the Central Europeans uses a lot and shillums which are disgusting if you know what I mean big Indian shillums oh yeah like the one hit or crack pipe looking things not big as shillums from India oh wow you fill me the tobacco and the shish mix and you smoke them that's something really nasty that Europeans especially Italians do a lot yummy yeah but what else I don't know yeah the charcoal filter that's something yeah yeah charcoal filters are everywhere they all have to have a big aspect with charcoal filters do you see is everyone still rolling like massive do people use the rolls like a little tear off paper still in Switzerland also that shit people be rolling like 20 centimeter 30 centimeter joints with the rolls like three cigarettes yeah like a Dutchman's spliff it's gross yeah I was I got into it it's a bummer but yeah that's how I got addicted to tobacco I guess just by smoking that way I have friends I have friends who never smoked cigarettes and when they started to smoke weed of course they mixed the tobacco and they started to be addicted to tobacco up with 35 35 years you know what I mean crazy yeah that was me I was dumb as fuck like never smoked cigarettes in my life but yeah when I was I didn't exchange in Switzerland so like yeah Braggans in Austria yeah so like yeah I lived there for like a year so I did like a school exchange and yeah I didn't smoke much before I went over there there's mostly just bombs like everyone over here just would get a plastic bottle jam a bit of hose into it a little like you know half inch socket and then yeah I saw some gross ones man like you know from older friends that would be you know 10 years old never changed and stuff like that it was fucked up money and shit coming from that but I got into the spliffs hard and I didn't even realize like Barry Truecannibals talked about this as well but yeah I was barely smoking like you know three or four times a month maybe before I started smoking spliffs and then it was just yeah every day you just get into it and it's like you get an itch in for it you know it's the hard habit to get away from people love the effect of a heady smoked bombs with the tobacco mix I don't want to hear people do that man I can't do that shit I was going to bring this up because unfortunately for a period of time I was doing what and I don't know what they call it where you guys are he's called them like chop chop um we call it chop or like chop? yeah like CHOP chop spin we call it here spin? it's called up but yeah we call it spun yeah geez and okay how about don't be a bogey I know I'm asking how about how about a lung booze you know what a lung is a lungy it's like when your friend passes out and you get a bag on a bone and you like pull it and then blow it in their face no it's there's some overlap so for us a lung is like you you get like one point five or whatever two liter like coke bottle right you cut the bottom off you take a plastic bag to the end you push the bag all the way in there's a cone piece on the top of the bottle and then you pull the bag through like out of the bottle and you have like four liter like hit right so it's like like a wish gravity bong I'm sorry I tried gravity bong oh yes this yellow this yellow is by the time you get that lid off the bottom it's old plastic it's old plastic everything's plastic plastic ain't never hurt no one like in New Zealand are people doing bucket bongs or not that's from my dad's time my dad was doing ripping bucket bongs in the fucking 80s and 70s and shit what's weird is we have this thing called lungers here and it's when you get a two liter bottle right and you cut a whole lot of one side but you leave about I'd say two inches of plastic and then you put your dick in it and have your friends suck it what the fuck yeah what are you talking about dude we call that shit a Tuesday over here I'm already getting in enough people telling me about my sexuality in my closet oh my god because the other piece of tech that's infamous of course is the hot knives and like somehow I mean the last few years realized that hot knives are just the precursors to vapes and I was just like what but that's kind of true I guess you are vaporizing the weed like at least partly I think vaporization techniques I don't know I mean it's like using heat to make the resin oil yeah yeah yeah kind of rosy what we often do in clubs or on the go was we take a needle and break off a piece of hashish put it on the needle and heat it up and smoke it like that from the way so it had to be a hashish that wasn't like super high quality to do that though right if you get too high quality it would just melt right off it was just Moroccan cheap Moroccan I was trying to use my hash kettle the other day because I wanted to do a review on it because it's a beautiful piece and it's like kind of new thing that this company sells and they said you need to use hashish and I didn't really understand what that meant at the time so I got this beautiful apple ball hash from my buddy it was beautiful and I put it in there and it went it was pure too nice it did not serve the purpose it needs more plant material not only resin it needs like legit like shitty hash yeah it was funny though because it was so pure I was like man it's pure no while we are on like techniques I want to ask both booze and gold cut how big are dabs and dab rigs where you are getting bigger I started I got into it early I was lucky enough I found a guy that was making him he had invested a shitload of money into like cross international gear so he was making proper purge oven like D waxed early on in 2017 so I was getting all sorts of dabs from him mucking around with diamonds and sauce and all sorts of bullshit and rosin and yeah carts were around for a while but on the medical scene you can get I think water hash dabs not super big unless you have to press yourself like on instagram I've seen some pens and stuff like that I've tried one or two really good quality but for the most part you're just making your own man most people will just get a press like a lot of the hydro stores here even sell them like fucking pretty upmarket ones so yeah I think people are just pressing it more of those than butane yeah I think with internet especially with internet plugs everything has changed so people can on the far countryside in Austria they can buy imported imported rosin, imported BHO so it changed but it took a very long time to make people understand that you cannot smoke this black tar that you extracted out of the plastic pipe it should probably not dab this stuff if it's crackling it took a very long time and from titanium to quartz it also took some time but it's still very small like Boo said the cartridges took off at a certain point and they are widely available but like I said Instagram and plugs online changed it completely so widely available if you if you're interested I'm just kind of like spitballing about here but one other thing that came to mind that isn't related to sorry isn't related to dabs or anything both Europe and Australia seem to have a healthy interest in haze is that am I right in saying that do you guys think yeah for sure what's wrong with America yeah you have so much the piff that you got Matt passed to you back in like whatever 2015 or 16 or whatever it was was that like like in a lean or what was that like or like the frankincense 2009 the frankincense metallic haze aside maybe it's better for them that was a good that was really good unpacking I think of you know the state of haze and some of the reasons why were there any other any other questions that you all had for anyone else the countries or regions anything else that you observed that you want to provoke or yeah ask anyone else yeah I would like to ask Matthew because he just talked about piff and and Frankie and how far away are they from the amnesia car cut and amnesia haze and all time of haze yeah I've been curious about that as far as amnesia haze the world the difference like as far as what I'm used to as amnesia haze you know the car cut we talked about yeah yeah like it's almost floral mercy and perfumes to me and it's just so different from that it's um you'd really have to go to a catholic church Catholic mass on Christmas smell on earth like it it would develop that sense memory and everything you smell from that point on you'd be able to identify piff like that because then I've had anything that wasn't you'd be able to go not it I've had amnesia I've had amnesia that was crazy frankincense smelling and tasting almost overpowered I never had any like that and also it's interesting the hypo amnesia that is available in the seed form has that I've never run this gift form I should get you a pack send it over I mean like if it has stuff like that in it I want to see it and run it because that's the stuff that I think that really holds a lot of special um highs when you get in that realm I think the main reason here is it's still so popular it's because of big yields it's just a huge fucking yield yeah make sense what we're going to see some bonnet amnesia crosses I'm just kidding I mean you know what if I could pick um if I could pick frankincense and mur like that combination out of that yeah any day and you know if like hit the frankincense zone you could probably get something very close to that smell anyways that's pretty cool so we've got a cutting down here that my buddy found it's from pith coast it's a cross of santa clue santa cruz blue dream cross to a pith s1 so I'm not sure so he found a lot of like basementy type stuff in that and he found some almost weird like caramel stuff even but one that he found that we've kept is like pretty bang on frankincense like you can pick up like the frankincense sticks put it next to it and move you know four or five of us now have been like yep made that like um comparison so it's awesome and great smell so the smell of um pith though it like that's the thing it's not just frankincense yeah yeah no I'm not mur is the most like you have to have mur with it and burn it and that's the smell like it's it's like it's not just together you burn it and you swing it and like that's what the smell that it's it's like a funeral we'd have it a funeral heavy right yeah super heavy super heavy you'll never forget it apartment yeah it gives me a damn headache like that smell yeah yeah pith stuff is somewhat interest I'm way more interested in like the a5 and the c5 and the dog shit and stuff like that that's like meaning a haze resolution in the states I didn't see anywhere near as many like dog shit or batsy crosses as I'm seeing these days like csi high and lonesome yourself Matt yeah we all that we know that shabud and um and csi you know like they really brought my attention to it like I was mostly interested in old Betsy because of bull rider and it's uh you know San Diego classic like when I was down there bull rider was it and and Betsy is supposedly the sister of bull rider and I could see that being very possible if it if bull rider is the way people say it was um so that always interested me because of that in general and dog shit I mean that's a classic right so I had to know what that was like but I don't know that any of those are very piffy to me but that's that's that's the other factor like I'm not mentioning is how everything is so subjective and how we smell stuff isn't necessarily the same and that's really really really like I forget daily how important that part is daily in the conversation yeah yeah I'm like it's almost like a renaissance of the blue dream billionaire right now too I think we've seen fucking like six or five years growing that cut again too yeah you know that cut that cut's been held back for a long time because so many people threw it away and only like I mean I knew like one two people who kept it all these years because like it was it was like kryptonite for everyone for a while because so many seed lines came out came and were released so many bad grows of that same cut growing it commercially and just shit blown it out so nobody really kept it and yeah it's it's funny to see it pop up in a bunch of places other than you know like small places in California but there is a chance other people did keep that cut because it was everywhere for a while and every collective and if you did it's pretty identifiable in how it breeds it's got this beautiful like dryer sheets thing to it that it passes on yeah one of my favorites one of my old favorites and it gets bagged on so much but I love it absolutely okay well we're coming to the end of the talk I think of it we're almost at the two hour mark and conscious that for gold cut it's getting pretty late maybe one of my one of my final questions is are there any types you know quite a quote broad stroking any types of genetics that you all would like to see more of in your region gold cut do you want to anything that you think okay people don't know about this broad family or type what would I like to see more here stuff that we will keep for many years relevant relevant selections or genetics that have added a balance that not overpowering and not follow necessarily follow the THC percentage types that Austria also tend to do I think that's or if this answers the question I'm sure yep yep I appreciate that I would love to see that just a lot more diversity man for the most part like I'm beginning to see a shift that I'm not a massive fan of a lot of people leaning into the hype that US hype market is feeding a lot of the minds over here as well so a lot of people jumping on that bandwagon so yeah man we got a climate that's conducive to grown equatorial shit that's what I want to see a lot more of the sativas that's what I've been conscious of with Goat by Seeds as well there's a shitload of sativa offerings we got like airflow like Nepalese and Jamaican and all this kind of stuff so there's hazes high and lonesome stuff we got the GMO bonnet there's a whole bunch of different long flowering stuff that I'd like to see grown up because we got the climate for it and it's a cool smoke and I think people haven't really had exposure to it that much I think a lot of people are geared to that indica like knocky down mindset but there's whole other fears to kind of just that man and yeah just just compassion just people taking the time thinking through things very nice anything else from any of you like any partying thoughts on your region or anything that you've heard from anyone else any questions for anyone else I'm pretty good brother because otherwise yeah we can wrap up and maybe before we do we just want to make sure that we plug yeah that was where I was going to go because I mean Boots like you just mentioned a bit about the seed bank and the show yeah yeah so I've got Goat by Seeds so that basically started sort of leads into everything that I've been talking about today I didn't have a lot of exposure to good genetics until I got into the online scene a bit more and through discord and then finding out you know Matt and Cry Baby getting their gear and growing it out I just wanted you know more people around me to have access to good gear so yeah I started Goat by Seeds and you know I only stop people that I really feel their gear you know it's on the level that I can vouch for and yeah so we got a bunch of cool breeders you know that I've been on this show and some other Aussie guys as well so yeah Goat by Seeds oh man I don't suck my dick but yeah you can find us on Instagram Goat by Seeds I think it's Goat underscore by underscore seeds but yeah just type in Goat yeah man check us out I'm happy to yeah just chat about anything you know obviously it's all souvenir collectibles you know don't germinate them or nothing just put them in the pool room for easy viewing but yeah Goat by Seeds man I'm just the biggest thing I want to say is yeah it's an avenue for gear that's really reasonable to be priced for the most part you know it's really gonna be good quality you know you're not gonna be like wasting your time or your money source from ethical people and so just you know this is one of the most available show oh the show oh all about trees podcast just a little thing just by starting the seed bank I started to chat with a bunch of people and yeah I wanted to put some of these long phone conversations into a podcast format other people could listen in as well so I've got two episodes so far all about trees we're just on SoundCloud or on Instagram you can find us and I've got an episode with my buddy Eli and another one Sunny from Southern Sun Seeds and Matt and I are gonna be doing one at one point I've got a couple more lined up I won't go into but yeah I got some cool stuff lined up yeah you should be really proud of it dude like you know I mean out of all the other podcasts that I've listened to you're like I was genuinely laughing and smiling and not only that like I was like god damn this dude knows his shit this dude knows his shit like it's really I'm impressed and like yeah I'm proud to have you talk about it on here because I think everybody listens to this should give that a shot and check it out because you're funny as fuck on there too thanks brother yeah man just yeah just stems from what everything basically I've learned from you guys so I mean I don't want it to be a regurgitation of your guys show that's my biggest thing where I'm just like oh god I don't want to fucking you know I mean you gotta remember realistically like a lot of what my I talk about even is like my conversations with all of my best friends right like so a lot of this information isn't even just mine it's just I'm just one of the loudest people in our group and like everybody's agreed that they're okay with me doing this you know so even what I'm doing is still a regurgitation of sorts and it's not necessarily my information to own or any of that and like a lot of what you guys talk about is totally different from what we talk about but it's just as relevant and special and from it from an amazing perspective from a good dude so and on top of that the seed bank part like all I've ever told anybody any seed bank whether it was you know BDSC when they started it or any of them was just carry people who are good good people and it'll go far you don't have to carry everyone just I promise you if you carry good people it'll be so much less headaches and it'll naturally form its own own base and and you guys are doing it and that's I think that's commendable it's hard it's not the easy route it's not the it's not a money maker buying any stretch necessary it's necessary it's helpful and that's that's the most important part is that it's helpful it doesn't it's not hurtful in my opinion it's not hurtful at all it's very helpful so I appreciate it I appreciate you just my way of giving back a little bit to the scene that's given me so much tell your man and Goldcut Goldcut also of course helps distribute Matt's work for Europe Goldcut thank you we are still still around and there's a bunch of people who decided to support us which I find amazing I would thank every every person out there may be listening to us right now who supported Matthew's introduction more or less because here in Austria they were not known and I think also for the German market and or a bunch of people in central Europe haven't heard about it I decided to do that and you know I think it was a great opportunity to showcase something that is really different to what is around we are working on getting some of the British indicate stuff over here because people I'm going to send over some of the stuff me and Caleb did with more lights people ask a lot people ask for a lot of stuff so you see there's a bunch of people in central Europe who listen to the British indicate podcast or go to the discord and so people want to support this because they gravitate towards people who think they are like minded and ethical background plays a big role that's why I do it that's why I do it that's why we talk I couldn't think of anyone else who could better represent everything that I believe in Europe that I trust has a good heart so that's why it's so important for him to be a part of this because it's a hard search when you find someone like that you hold them close I appreciate that that's awesome and it gives me a chance to also showcase through my work which continues because I found a new place to work we continue to be available also as a clone find something really cool that I like and I want to share I will involve this in my work wherever I work or let's put it like this wherever I think it's worth to share where the quality standards are meeting my expectations exactly and that's something I'm currently working on with a new partner a new big facility an amazing team very ambitious you will hear from that and I will share some of my work I hope I can involve also podcast work which a lot of people ask me hey don't you have you ever thought about sharing some of that stuff that you do in a new video format in the past and it was old school but I think in a new format the person who owns this place where I will start to work next month he wants to do it all he wants to do it right and then he wants also a media presence in the professional and I think I will do that that's freaking awesome other than that like I said Right SQL Europe is there and if you guys are interested in Matthew's work the blue bonnet everything is available still a bunch of them are almost sold out the blue bonnet PX1 is sold out I figured that's fast but everything else is still here and is kept well in my fridge if you're interested feel free to contact me and I hope in the future we can showcase more of the amazing work from the guys absolutely dude let's keep it happening keep it rolling alright well thank you both so much it was definitely quite the project to coordinate four time zones I'm so glad everyone showed up I was so paranoid that someone I would either have gotten the times wrong for someone or something would go wrong so I'm so glad I fall asleep
